This article may be an attempted promotion and it appears to be too soon for an article on this comedian. The article currently has six sources but all are either brief media introductions or short interviews that do little more than indicate his existence in the Nigerian comedy scene. An Internet search reveals a few more of the same, but he has not received the reliable and significant coverage that is necessary under the notability rules for media personalities. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( Talk| Contribs) 23:42, 20 January 2020 (UTC) reply

• Neutral: I'll try to be neutral here. I don't think media coverage tends to be promotional here. Pulse Nigeria and PN News Nigeria are independent media sources. WP:TOOSOON may apply however. Lunar Clock ( talk) 05:55, 21 January 2020 (UTC) reply
• Keep Voicing Lunar Clock, + he satisfies at least criterion #1 & #2 under WP:ENT. Furthermore I can obseve an abundant use of RS in the article & even per WP:THREE he qualifies. Celestina007 ( talk) 13:41, 21 January 2020 (UTC) reply
• Comment from Nominator - I won't bludgeon the process, but the voters above have missed an important point. The sources mentioning Mr. Arole, including those already in the article, may very well be reliable sources in themselves. However, they have all mentioned him in very brief and introductory ways, pretty much simply announcing that he exists with no further in-depth analysis of anything he may have accomplished. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( Talk| Contribs) 13:48, 21 January 2020 (UTC) reply

Doomsdayer520 I don’t even know why I bother with this AFD as I’m not even the author of the article but in the spirit of fairness imho he does qualify. Can you not see how subject of article qualifies for inclusion under #1 & #2 of WP:ENT ?? Celestina007 ( talk) 00:11, 23 January 2020 (UTC) reply

If you don't think you should bother with it then don't. I have also already made my argument and will let the community discussion take its course because I don't have to look at this man's article ever again. But since people are pinging me and demanding more comments, my argument is that his coverage is trivial even though it may well be in reliable sources. See WP:GNG, which says a topic must have "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", while "'Significant coverage' addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention..." --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( Talk| Contribs) 21:00, 22 January 2020 (UTC) reply

More such review can be added. She has been performing on New York stages and reviews of her performances are easy to find in the New York papers.

Mathematics in general is a low-citation field but numerical PDEs (his area) isn't, and this isn't enough to convince me of a pass of WP:PROF#C1.

• Keep: The nomination says: two additional sources were added, but neither of them has significant coverage of the subject (in fact, neither of them even directly refer to it by name).. Well when I check out one of those sources [4] I see CECPQ2 thoroughly discussed during it. Now the chance of me using remembering SSL is Secure Sockets Layer is minimal but just possible; remembering TLS is Transport Layer Security; or even the difference between them is minimal and I'd probably simply say TLS/SSL if I needed write something down about it. My chance of remembering CECPQ2 is Combined Elliptic-Curve and Post-Quantum 2 and quite frankly to mention the latter in most places might to some I might know might turn the sir blue. The key point is the nomination has in my view falsely scummered the document and misled the AfD by claiming the document did not discuss the subject; which it clearly does. The nomination did not even discuss any thoughts of merging to CECPQ1 ... and I would oppose that at this stage .... maybe an expert might do it later. Djm-leighpark ( talk) 11:19, 23 January 2020 (UTC) reply

  Djm-leighpark, the source you linked above is one of the ones that was originally in the article before I nominated for PROD; the issue with that source is that it is not independent, as it is written by one of the researchers involved in developing CECPQ2. The two sources that were added post-PROD were [5] and [6]. Maybe there's something in there that I wasn't able to understand, but I would be amazed if you can find evidence that they discuss the subject in detail there. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 16:59, 23 January 2020 (UTC) reply

Well having had a look at [7] again carefully I'd have to agree with you on Langley. The wonder of imprecise citations being made a little better slipping me up. Apolgoies and thanks for setting that out. There's better than that on Scholar and to some extent its the sheer waste of my trawling through the lot ... and the issue of no consideration of the merge remains in all events.

• Keep. Bands and musical ensembles are companies/organizations as well, but we recognize WP:MUSIC - exclusively - as the criterion for judging their notability over WP:CORP, and I have long argued that record labels should be treated the same.

comment see here. WP:NCORP still appears to be the relevant criteria. Graywalls ( talk) 21:01, 7 January 2020 (UTC) reply

That's from eight years ago, and there were several subsequent discussions, some of which I started. At one point we were close to having actual enumerated criteria at NMUSIC, but the conversation got bogged down on a rather trivial technicality, and I abandoned the project - to my chagrin, as this keeps coming up at AfD over and over and over. In any case, none of this suggests we should ignore NMUSIC, and certainly, people who are interested in music are, in general, going to be better judges of what musical content to include than people who are interested in corporations and organizations. Chubbles ( talk) 14:11, 8 January 2020 (UTC) reply

I am not claiming that recording companies are bands. I'm merely pointing out that bands and ensembles unquestionably would fall under WP:CORP as "a group of more than one person formed together for a purpose", but we (rightfully) never (ever! in my entire time here) use that yardstick to decide their notability.

@ Bearian: I'm not sure I follow. There are also numerous bands that have articles. I might have concerns that the articles that exist are part of a walled garden, but just because several artists on a label are not notable (or not created yet) doesn't mean the label is not notable (my example would be Falcon Records (Texas)). If a label has had significant impact on the careers of, say, seven notable artists, that is an indication of notability even if ten other artists on their roster never achieved a career trajectory that results in a blue link. I have NOT made up my mind that this is a notable record label, but the number of blue links seem to discount WP:MILL. 78.26 _{( spin me / revolutions)} 14:51, 28 January 2020 (UTC) reply

This finishes with the sentence: "If there is any one flat-top steel-string vintage American guitar which can be viewed as a “holy grail” to collectors, the pre-World War II D-45 Martin is it." Just a note, you can buy an "ordinary" acoustic guitar for $450. One of these in top condition will cost you closer to $450,000. There are no production acoustic guitars (vintage, desirable) (other than one-offs with celebrity association) that are worth more. Tony 1212 ( talk) 20:48, 5 January 2020 (UTC) reply

• Reply. There is a Martin D-45 article for that sort of stuff. It's the listing of each guitar I object to. Clarityfiend ( talk) 21:04, 5 January 2020 (UTC) reply

• Reply to above statement. Thanks for the response Clarityfiend... the Martin D-45 is a production model today that you can buy off the shelf, and has been made in a number of variants since its re-introduction in 1968. The 91 pre-war ones are a special set in my opinion and that of most other interested parties. Of course this list could be incorporated into the genral D-45 page but my view is that it is rather different in slant and would also make that page a bit long...

I refer to the WP notability criteria linked above:

Notability guidelines also apply to the creation of stand-alone lists and tables. Notability of lists (whether titled as "List of Xs" or "Xs") is based on the group. One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines.

Some quotes from "independent reliable sources" showing that they are typically discussed as a set:

• https://www.premierguitar.com/articles/20677-pre-war-perfection-the-martin-d-45 : "Today, more than 80 years after Autry’s D-45 was built, these 91 guitars are coveted by players and collectors worldwide."
• Martin D-45 Master List (2009): "A place to list and help identify the first 91 D-45's"
• https://www.guitarplayer.com/miscellaneous/introducing-the-d-45-authentic-1942-from-martin : "The new D 45 Authentic is made exactly like Martin made the original 91 pre war D 45 Dreadnoughts. And like the originals, these new D 45 Authentics could well become the next "Holy Grails" of acoustic guitardom. These are magnificent."
• https://umgf.com/the-91-pre-war-d-45s-t180739.html : The Unofficial Martin Guitar Forum > Guitars > The Vintage Corner > The 91 Pre War D-45s
• https://shop.gryphonstrings.com/products/1941-steel-string-acoustic-martin-guitar-d45-53459 : "Thanks to Blom's recent neck reset and refret it's highly playable with medium gauge strings and delivers the powerful sound and rich bass response that has made pre-WWII D-45s legendary."

This is a selection of web sources to hand. There will be more in print sources (guitar books etc.) as well.

• Keep - as explained above, these are like Stradivariuses of the guitar world. Not quite literally, but certainly enough to pass WP:LISTN. Adding on, from Fretboard Journal (in the December 2013 issue article Catch of the Day: 1941 Martin D-45) (emphasis added): “As most guitar geeks know, Martin only made 91 prewar D-45s, which makes this instrument a very rare bird, indeed.” This is an assertion in a notable publication that the exact number of prewar D-45s is well known among guitar enthusiasts! This is a rare and well known historical set of acoustic instruments, this page list certainly has encyclopedic value as it details that set. Shelbystripes ( talk) 05:20, 14 January 2020 (UTC) reply

Totally concur with User:Shelbystripes. Here is another quote, this time from a respected reference book: "History of the American Guitar: 1833 to the Present Day" by Tony Bacon (ISBN 1476856389, 9781476856384): "Only 91 pre-war D-45s were made, and in the view of many players and collectors they are among the highest quality, best sounding guitars ever made. With so few in existence and with such wide knowledge of their almost magical quality, these superb, rare, and inevitably expensive instruments appear to follow the rules of supply and demand perfectly." Regards Tony 1212 ( talk) 05:44, 14 January 2020 (UTC) reply

Because of a discussion on Wikimedia Commons about https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:JyDinHsuYun2in.jpg , I have removed that image from Jy Ding. The discussion resulted in a Wikipedia editor finding another resource online:

https://kknews.cc/fo/l8yl32e.html

I have added this in the citations because it shows, or purports to show "In 1947, the old monk Xuyun and Master Zhiding took a group photo in front of the Guangzhou Zoulu Mansion" and so this is evidence of a close relationship between the two figures.

I was unsure what MarkH₂₁ meant by 'coverage on this subject' but perhaps this second source is enough? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brofitable ( talk • contribs) 14:00, 13 January 2020 (UTC) reply

A couple of new sources found. One of them inspires an edit which may be sensitive. Posting the candidate edit here, instead of on the article's talks page, for debate:

While notable for its innovative approach, the level of Jy Ding's legacy order's impact thus far may be a matter for further research. There are two institutions under the name "Zen Buddhist Order of Hsu Yun" ^{[1] [2] [3]}, although there is some indication that duplication should not be presumed to mean there is any dispute as to which of these is the rightful holder of that name ^[4].

Zenothing ( talk) 11:20, 18 January 2020 (UTC) reply

This fails to establish notability. The editor who removed the PROD cited two sources. I can seem to only access one of them, but "Television Cartoon Shows: An Illustrated Encyclopedia" is a trivial mention that calls the character "Scooby Doo-ish" and nothing else relevant.

• Merge or Redirect - He could possibly be merged to Wendy and Marvin if people think that article looks salvageable (taking a quick glance at it shows it has similar sourcing problems, but I haven't done a in-depth look as its not the article under nomination). If not, it should probably be Redirected to the main Super Friends article, where he is already mentioned. Rorshacma ( talk) 16:57, 13 January 2020 (UTC) reply

• Update - Even with the newly added sources, I still don't see this meeting the threshold for an independent article. Most of the added references are either complete plot summary (the "Back Issue!" source is literally just a long, straight recap of an issue of a comic he appeared in) or very brief coverage (the "Saturday Morning Fever" book only mentions him in a couple of sentences, and mostly just to describe what he was).

• I think the most frustrating thing is there's a chance this article could pass WP:GNG as a non-populated place separate from Winona as an article on the cinder pit, as it has indeed been written about, but now we've got a source-bombed article, and there's only about one or two of those sources which come close to demonstrating notability under GNG (and even with the new sources, the article currently doesn't include the clipping I found which makes clear Darling is just the railroad's name for the Winona station/siding.) SportingFlyer T· C 03:11, 16 January 2020 (UTC) reply

We can split this to Darling Cinder Pit per this source which states "Arizona is #1 cinder producer in the country with an annual production of about 1 million tons. Superlite's Darling Cinder Pit is the largest producer in the state." We currently don't have any articles on cinder mines, so this would be a good place to start. It passes WP:GNG. Then Darling, Arizona could redirect to Winona, Arizona, where the station name and pit are mentioned in the lead. ---- Pontificalibus 12:19, 16 January 2020 (UTC) reply

I like this idea. SportingFlyer T· C 12:39, 16 January 2020 (UTC) reply

These are good ideas. Although Darling (or the cinder pit) is a continual important point on the railroad. I still have lots of sources to add concerning that. Where that material winds up ( False choice? WP:Not paper so there could be some duplication) could be an issue.
Of course, there is a problem with your ruthlessly trimming of WP:RS discussion of Darling, Arizona.

Sources for what? Darling is not a populated place. We know Darling Cinder Pit is notable, and Winona's railroad station which was renamed "Darling" is obviously mentioned by sources. However why should these two things share an article? Surely it makes more sense to mention the railroad activity at Winona's station in the Winona article, and then either have a separate article on the cinder pit, or also discuss that in the Winona article because that's the place where it's located.---- Pontificalibus 17:10, 17 January 2020 (UTC) reply

The proper procedure probably needs to be that this article gets moved to Darling Cinder Pit, and then Darling, Arizona gets redirected to Winona, Arizona, which would then be edited to have a link to the cinder pit.

• Delete, no evidence this was a populated place. GNIS does have a separate entry for a station building, so this was indeed a stop on this old section of the ATSF.

Article about a shortlived cable television channel, not properly referenced as clearing either WP:NMEDIA or WP:GNG. This channel operated in a class of services that are exempt from having to have broadcast licenses, which means it isn't "inherently" notable under NMEDIA -- and it existed exclusively to broadcast infomercials, which means there was nothing "inherently" notable about any of its programming either. But the sources here -- the CRTC's general exemption policy for this type of service (which predates this channel's existence by 19 years and thus fails to mention it at all), a glancing mention of its existence in a (deadlinked) piece about a competing service, and one very short blurb about its launch in an industry trade magazine -- is not enough to get it over GNG. The only source here that's contributing any notability points at all is the Media in Canada hit, but it's not contributing enough notability points in and of itself if it's the only notability-assisting source on offer.

• From Wikipedia:NMEDIA, for a cable television channel "Cable television - Generally, national or regional cable channels are presumed notable. Public access cable stations are not presumed notable unless they serve a major city or a large regional area. For example, a statewide public access channel, or a channel for all of New York City could be presumed notable." So, this was a national channel with about 2 million subscribers from multiple distributors (Rogers, V Media, and Zazeen), as per the cited source in the article. Even if you were to label it as a lowly public access channel, with 2 million subs or more, I'd say that is objectively notable. When you look at the notability guidelines you sourced, there are 5 items: 1) Significant coverage, the media sources mentioned discuss the topic in detail and directly, and its not a trivial mention, and although its 2 articles, there is no mention about how many numbers it must be so I'd say, Yes, that ones met; 2) Reliable: both sources have editorial integrity and are independent from eachother and wrote their own separate articles, so Check that one off; 3) Sources: this is what the definition is "should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected." As you can see in the article, there are multiple sources (2), they are secondary sources and provide objective research, and as the definition states, there need not be any specific number of sources, except multiple, of which 2 can count as multiple; 4) Independent of the subject: this excludes works produced by the article's subjects owner or someone affiliated with it. For example, advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent. As you can see from the article, the 2 sources are not owned or affiliated with BuyNow TV or themselves, and the articles are also not advertising, press releases, autobiographies, or from BuyNow TV's website, so thats another Check; and finally 5) Presumed: this one from what I can tell, just assures that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information and when you look at that definition, this article does not meet that definition either which is, it's not a summary-only descriptions of works, lyric database, excessive listings of unexplained statistics, or an exhaustive logs of software updates. So its a check on this one as well. So, in summary of all this.... BuyNow TV is an objective article that stands on the merits of itself by Wikipedias own standards and should be kept. If it meets Wikipedias own guidelines, then it should be an automatic Keep. [revote struck] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Musimax ( talk • contribs)

NMEDIA explicitly states that TV channels are not exempted from having to get over GNG or CORPDEPTH just because they exist — the notability test is never just the things the article says, but the quality and depth and range of the references that can be shown to support the things it says. But I've already explained above why the references here are not cutting it: one is just the CRTC's general policy on this type of service, which does not mention this channel at all as it predates this channels existence by 19 years, and thus counts for nothing toward making this channel notable at all because it is not about this channel. A second source merely mentions this channel's existence in passing, in the process of being about a competing service owned by a different company, and thus counts for nothing toward making this channel notable at all because it is not about this channel. And the only source present here that is about this channel is a short blurb, not a substantive piece of coverage, and thus does not represent enough coverage to get this channel over the notability bar all by itself — even just a basic GNG pass requires more than just one source that's actually about the channel. It's true that GNG doesn't require a specific fixed number of sources, but it does require more than just one blurb. And again, NMEDIA does not grant television channels a free exemption from having to have sufficient sources to clear GNG just because they existed — NMEDIA very explicitly states, in fact, that the notability criteria for TV channels still requires reliable source coverage about the channel, and that television and radio broadcasters are not exempted from having to clear GNG just because they existed.

But also, please note that you are not allowed to "vote" more than once in an AFD discussion: you may comment as many times as you like, but your followup comments may not contain a bolded restatement of the "keep" vote you've already given. Bearcat ( talk) 23:25, 25 January 2020 (UTC) reply

I stand by all of the info I noted above, it meets all 5 notability standards. The info you mention about the CRTC article, that it doesn't mention the channel, is 19 years before the channel launched, and counting nothing towards the channel being reliable is all opinion. So what if its 19 years before the channel launched? Wikipedia has, from what I can tell, no rule on such timelines for references. It's relevant because it notes the channel is subject to this rule (even if not in name) and doesn't have a licence, unlike the majority of other Canadian channels which need one. musimax. ( talk) 16:13, 26 January 2020 (UTC) reply

And I stand by what I said, with the added bonus that NMEDIA backs me up. NMEDIA requires a media outlet to be the subject of sufficient reliable source coverage to clear our notability standards — regardless of the topic, the notability test is never just the things the article says, but is always the quality of the sources that can be shown to support the things it says. It is entirely relevant that the CRTC decision dates from 19 years before this channel existed — because that fact means that source is not about this channel, and thus does not constitute evidence of this channel's notability. The rule is not that as long as the article has footnotes in it, the topic is automatically notable enough for inclusion here — to constitute support for a topic's notability, a source has to be about that topic, and sources which either (a) briefly mention the topic in the process of being about something else, or (b) don't mention the topic at all, but are present merely to verify a stray fact, are not support for a topic's notability. That is how notability works on here: a source only speaks to the notability of the topic in question if that source is directly about that topic. Bearcat ( talk) 01:25, 29 January 2020 (UTC) reply

Comment I continue to support Bearcat's reasoning for deletion; NMEDIA and the fact this is an infomercial channel means by far nobody is going to write about it; there's nothing to write about here. And even if two million people were consistently watching this network day in and out (which would earn N based on 'why on earth are two million Canadians watching an infomercial channel?', but be nearly all negative press), we don't care about viewership overall; just about overall notability. It just doesn't have it. Nate • ( chatter) 03:43, 31 January 2020 (UTC) reply

List of school pranks (  | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View AfD · Stats)

(Find sources:  Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Clearly fails WP:GNG. Also note WP:NOTDIR. Very little is gained from an incomplete listing of potential ways that kids in school can make trouble. This is an encyclopedia, not reddit. In a previous discussion, arguments along the lines of Everything on this page is real were made, including "I have been out of school for 25 years but have either been on the giving or receiving end of nearly all of the pranks." and "school pranks are well known and easily verifiable", however that is not reason enough to keep an article.

• I'd advocate delete largely because the entire history is constant addition of bullshit that then has to be removed. It's a magnet for idiots and adds nothing over what's in the school prank article. Guy ( help!) 18:53, 13 January 2020 (UTC) reply

  There is no school prank article, it was renamed list of school pranks in 2008. Dream Focus 20:37, 13 January 2020 (UTC) reply

• Delete. None of these are particularly known for "primarily occurring in a school setting", e.g. mooning. They're just your run-of-the-mill pranks. Clarityfiend ( talk) 19:43, 13 January 2020 (UTC) reply
• KEEP but rename to List of adolescent pranks. These aren't all done in schools after all. Dream Focus 20:37, 13 January 2020 (UTC) reply

• What's wrong with the existing List of practical joke topics (other than the clumsy title)? Some of the entries (those with, you know, actual articles) are already there, e.g. Pantsing, Wedgie. Clarityfiend ( talk) 09:12, 14 January 2020 (UTC) reply

• These are not practical jokes but bullying attack. Some things on that list do not belong there. We could also just put things like that in a renamed list called list of abusive attacks immature morons considered amusing. Dream Focus 15:05, 14 January 2020 (UTC) reply

• Delete per Guy. Personally, WP:BEANS also comes to mind but I guess that's not really a persuasive argument for deletion. Ifnord ( talk) 22:22, 21 January 2020 (UTC) reply

Aurora (festival) (  | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View AfD · Stats)

(Find sources:  Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

A article that heavily uses advertising language and has almost exclusively first-party sources. I cannot, after a bit of searching, find any evidence of notability (May be due to the fact it's overshadowed by another festival of the same name?), and as such it fails WP:NEVENT.
