This article, in my opinion, is very similar to the one I have also nominated for deletion and that it is also just a rehash of the article List of longest-running U.S. primetime television series but only with scripted programming that have continuing characters featured in it.

Non-notable academic conference. Fails WP:EVENT, WP:GNG and related guidelines. In terms of the EVENT guidelines, and in particular WP:ROUTINE, a BEFORE review suggests that this is just an otherwise run-of-the-mill academic conference, with nothing indicating that it has had any enduring historical significance, lasting relevance, or been subject of anything other than very limited coverage. In terms of GNG guidelines, I can find no news coverage to speak of in either the Irish national or relevant regional papers: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]. A web search returns just the Wikipedia article, the subject's own website, and ROTM entries in conference listings and the like. All of which, I note, contain almost exactly the same text. These entries confirm that the subject exists, but do not contribute to notability. While Google Books/Scholar searches return a handful of results, these seem to just refer to papers that were perhaps presented at the conference. There is nothing which discusses the conference in its own right. Guliolopez ( talk) 23:32, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Keep: The nominator's argument is that this list is an unnecessary copy of the larger one. My argument for Keep is that this list doesn't actually bear much resemblance to the larger one. The Simpsons is #1 on this list; it's #27 on the main list. Then you have to go down to #50 before you get to the second one. When people ask, "What's the longest-running American primetime shows?" they're often thinking about the scripted series — The Simpsons, Law & Order and Gunsmoke, rather than Hallmark Hall of Fame, Walt Disney Presents and 60 Minutes. It is difficult for a reader to pull this information out of the larger list — you have to know at a glance whether The Challenge is scripted or unscripted. Therefore, this is not an unnecessary rehash. — Toughpigs ( talk) 02:40, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Fails WP:NORG and WP:NSCHOOL. WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES tells us we don't have articles on middle schools unless there is something exceptional about it. Being destroyed by an act of God and rebuilt is a WP:1E event and speaks little, if at all, to notability. Between fires, floods, tornadoes and hurricanes, there are several US schools destroyed by acts of God annually. The only secondary sources are about the aftermath of the hurricane or transactional. Also,  all the secondary sources are local, failing WP:CORPDEPTH. John from Idegon ( talk) 22:50, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Keep I'm not really sure what has changed about this article since it was first nominated for deletion, other than information has just recently been removed (by someone who wants to delete the article) that should have been updated rather than removed. The whole middle schools get deleted and high schools get kept bit has been a quite controversial one, since it doesn't have a firm basis in WP:GNG, which states that there needs to be significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. The reason for keeping high schools and deleting middle schools is that a lot of middle schools don't have the kind of coverage this one does. The problem with merging the material to the district article or to the Hurricane Charley article is that we would really be giving PGMS undue attention in either of those articles to include all of the encyclopedic information currently in the PGMS article in one of them.

  • Redirect to Charlotte County Public Schools This came on my radar thanks to the trainwreck that was the Punta Gorda bus fight AfD, and I was ready to bring this to AfD myself. It's an average middle school (and middle schools go through hurricanes and get rebuilt like other schools), and though I'm sure the editor above is really proud of this article...they are also WP:INVOLVED (not in the admin sense) as someone who is from that school district (their userpage has that information, so there is NO outing involved here) and as one of their early Wiki creations. The text involved is a minor school official's WP:RESUME point, school stats that are fifteen years out of date, a mascot that 98% of the time, students never think about because middle school sports are never really competitive, and bog-standard information about how the new building is built to stronger hurricane codes (it would be unusual if they thumbed their nose at FEMA and built a shoddy structure). Nate • ( chatter) 00:33, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • I’m going to clarify that I am an alumnus of that school, but not otherwise affiliated with it; I work for Sarasota County Public Schools, not Charlotte County, and I was in high school when I wrote the article. I lean on the inclusionist side, but I’m curious what has changed about the notability guidelines that this article no longer meets GNG? I’m just curious, not angry or anything. PCHS-NJROTC (Messages)Have a blessed day. 01:50, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
      • Comment As mentioned by JfI, SCHOOLOUTCOMES has really tightened up since 2007 to where only high school and high school equivalents get keeps, and middle schools are usually considered redirects with elementary schools due to the muddled state of American education (some districts have them in elementary/middle combos, some alone, some use the different junior high school concept and push it to tenth grade, and there's small cases where 4K-8 is elementary education). There's usually nothing outstanding about middle schools that justifies an article broadly here. Nate • ( chatter) 04:04, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Charlotte County Public Schools. As mentioned by John from Idegon this is really a WP:1E matter with no significant ongoing notability. -- Whiteguru ( talk) 11:51, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete We require actual substantial coverage to show notability for a school that is not at least a high school, the coverage here is just routine. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 18:19, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Note - As nominator, I'm fine with the redirect. We're here because my BOLD redirect to the district was reverted. A note for the article's creator: as of an RfC about 18 months ago, the automatic notability for high schools ended. We're not mass deleting existing articles routinely, but several high school articles have been deleted since. New school articles are now required to meet GNG. This article has never met GNG, as most of the sources are about the 1E event. It's great info to include in a notable article, and indeed it should be covered in the history section of the school district article. I'm all in favor of a merge of this info, along with a redirect of this article. John from Idegon ( talk) 00:15, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply

This pastor doesn't seem notable enough to pass WP:NBIO. Since out of the four sources in the article, two of them are primary, one is a local newspaper, and the other is an obituary. None of which works for notability. Also, the introduction is heavily COPYVIOed from this website. Once you get rid of that, the only things left about him are that he was accused of something and died. So, this article fails WP:NBIO and probably also WP:GNG. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 00:30, 7 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Master thesis' don't work for notability because they are original research. That aside, I don't think two books about Charles Taze Russell, which aren't about him and probably only mention him in passing in regards to Charles Taze Russell attending one of his presentations (since that seems to be only connection they have to each other) do either. People are named dropped in books about other people all the time. There has to be more then that for them to be notable though. Including in-depth coverage. Which books about other people don't usually provide. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 09:55, 23 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Regarding using theses: Not quite. The actual policy details are found here: WP:SCHOLARSHIP. I haven't looked into whether the thesis made waves, but at the very least it could be added as an external link to improve the article. DiamondRemley39 ( talk) 02:40, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
If we are going to assume, assume that, as Wendell was a major influence on Taze Russell, that Wendl will be mentioned more than in passing in biographies of Taze Russell. I am wondering if Adamant1 has ever read a book-length biography--most biographies have in-depth information about other people, excepting perhaps picture book biographies for children. DiamondRemley39 ( talk) 02:48, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Well, it is with the cavate that we should be careful about them. As they are sort of original research and it's much better if they are published in a journal where they get reviewed before being published. Although, I would be fine with it being used as an external link. Since the bar is kind of lower for them. As far as the biographies go, it's pretty irrelevant if I have read a lot of them or not (I have), because like you say in this particular case it would be an assumption either way anyway and AfDs are based on the facts, not personal assumptions of what a biography might contain because I've read some or whatever. That said, with the biographies I have read there wasn't usually in-depth details about other people in them. Except when the person that the biography was about had a close relationship to the person or at least was extremely important to their life (but even then really not). Which really isn't the case here. Since there's no indication Jonas Wendell and Charles Taze Russell were friends or had any kind of relationship what-so-ever, and all the article says is that attendance at Jonas Wendell's presentation "restored Charles Taze Russell's faith in the Bible." Which is a really vague and general statement, that doesn't actually connect the two in any meaningful way. Generally, I highly doubt there would be a long piece on someone who "restored" a persons faith in their biography. Honestly, I don't think it's very encyclopedic either. Plus, it's the defining of a passing mention. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 04:13, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Just so you know, theses and dissertations go through an academic review process called IRB and are typically published in Proquest and often elsewhere. DiamondRemley39 ( talk) 15:43, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Just so you know, not all IRBs are equal and the "reviews" they do are of varying quality. Which is why Wikipedia prefers thesis that are printed in peer reviewed journals. Also, not all thesis are published on ProQuest or "elsewhere." Obviously some are, but the one we are talking about here isn't. It was "published" on the website of Seventh-day Adventist university college's library that the person who write attended. Which isn't ProQuest or anything like it. Id imagine their IRB is on the lower end to. Sure, we could have a discussion about extremely general, mealy mouthed things that are not relevent to the AfD though like "things are printed in differented places" and "people review things." As if both aren't extremely obvious or like anyone here was arguing that those things weren't the case. Adamant1 ( talk) 23:07, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Surely you know that your assumptions about the quality of their thesis review process in 1947 do not signify. DiamondRemley39 ( talk) 00:32, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment BTW, I don't think that the sources provided by ToughPigs about his "arrest" should be included in this or the article. As the source about it says "No evidence of impropriety was ever produced." Wikipedia isn't a tabloid. I know that if you take that and the obituary stuff, which is pretty run of the mill, out of the article that nothing is really left though, but I still it's inappropriate to include it or use it for notability. Even there was a "cool nickname" attached to him being accused of crap. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 04:21, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
The Associated Press is not a tabloid; it is considered "generally reliable" according to the reliable sources list. Not sure what you mean about a nickname, but no matter. DiamondRemley39 ( talk) 00:32, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply
I'm not sure me saying Wikipedia isn't a tabloid equates to "The Associated Press is a tabloid," but whatever you say. Last time I checked WP:NOTNEWS doesn't discriminate on what source the "news" is coming from and I'm pretty sure someone being accused of something, which had zero evidence and never went anywhere (even according to the Wikipedia article), would qualify under the whole ""Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of persons and events" thing. Not to mention WP:SUSTAINED. I know certain people are a lot more lose with the guidelines then others though. As far as the nickname thing goes, ToughPigs said "the Wheeling Daily Intelligencer. The Pittsburgh Commercial has more information about the incident, which they call "the Edinboro Sensation"." 100% I would call a newspaper calling someone being accused of something, that again didn't go anywhere and that there was zero evidence of, the Edinboro "Sensation" rather sensationalist and tabloidlish. It would also be on Wikipedia's end to include it. Least of which because last I checked it's against covering accusations and people being arrested for things. Unless it's extremely notable and has sustained coverage. Which this wasn't and didn't have. Maybe you and ToughPigs are cool with Wikipedia including that kind of thing and using it for notability, but I'm not and I don't think Wikipedia is either. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 01:25, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply

I wish to nominate the page for Izabella Nilsson Jarvandi for deletion since I do not think it has any relevance. The given sources is monstly easily identified identifiable as tabloid and/or POV sources for right wing opinions. I have looked for sources without finding any from credible sources, and I even done a quick validation of the given sources and found them sadly lacking. The need for sources tag has been on the article for the better part of a year without anyone editing it adding any that is credible.

  • Keep This article is sloppy, let’s be honest. But I don’t see a lack of notability expressed in the sources. I also don’t understand this trend of attaching Greta Thunberg’s name to every kid who has absolutely nothing to do with her subject.... Thunberg isn’t fighting alleged globalism. Jarvandi isn’t fighting inaction on climate change mitigation. (Edit:I’m not saying these sources are top notch, I’m going with WP:NEXIST.) Trillfendi ( talk) 20:41, 5 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • What sources are you seeing here that are reliable and would indicate notability? ★Trekker ( talk) 20:51, 5 September 2020 (UTC) reply
The Italian press seems to care, according to the BBC. E.g. the Italian edition of [Vice Media] and the Italian edition of Huffington Post. Does Greta even know this girl is her so-called nemesis? If I called myself the anti-Miley Cyrus would anyone care? A German reporter dissects it. I won’t try to mine the Polish language references because my Polish is See Spot Run rudimentary (apparently Jarvandi opines about Poland’s anti-refugee policy?). I’ve also seen things in French and Dutch. If her claim to fame is latching on to Greta’s, it’s working, I guess. I just find myself perplexed as to what exactly she’s mad about. Trillfendi ( talk) 19:23, 6 September 2020 (UTC) reply
To me the sources seem to be more about Greta, and the phenomenon of people who are upset at the attention she has recived. This girl (or her supporters) seem to be trying desperately to be noticed by association. Like I said above, I think its pretty telling that this Swedish girl has had essentially zero coverage in any Swedish news whatsoever, no one here has ever heard about her and her calim to fame is "7000 Twitter followers" yet tabloids in other countries seem to have tried to make a big deal out of it. ★Trekker ( talk) 20:14, 6 September 2020 (UTC) reply
I already mentioned they’re not fighting the same fight. They just happen to be born 3 days apart so naturally people want to extrapolate them. A newspaper would call this a “study in contrasts”. Greta’s fervor doesn’t grant notability to anybody but herself and her movement—not to Naomi Seibt either. (Nobody cares about trivium of her Twitter follower count and that sentence can easily be discarded.) It only adds to the irony of Jarvandi’s subject that her own country doesn’t pay much attention her, but others do as BBC referred to Il Fatto Quotidiano. And by Wikipedia’s standards, that’s good enough, unfortunately. Trillfendi ( talk) 16:44, 7 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Weak delete. I thought I had heard of this antithesis of Thunberg. But it must have been someone else.

She got a few interviews as a human-interest subject as a "front-line worker" during the COVID pandemic, but that by itself does not seem to make the subject notable. All the coverage is the same: "This image shows Lambertini exhausted due to Covid, Lambertini also has a child with cystic fibrosis". The coverage is from a span of two weeks and appears to originate as a fundraising promotion by the Cystic Fibrosis Research Foundation ("Margherita is the protagonist of a new fundraising campaign promoted by the Cystic Fibrosis Research Foundation, here is the info on the campaign and on how to donate." from the Vanity Fair Italy coverage) – Thjarkur (talk) 21:52, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

I'm not going to dignify the question with an answer, except to say if you have multiple in-depth reliable sources about the hospital under its old names feel free to provide them. That's what people usually do in AfDs instead of asking superfluous questions.
Sorry, I meant nothing bad by it. It's just when a hospital gets acquired by a network - the materials that made it notable or more verifiable were its origin history when it was perhaps more directly contributed with the community. I'm just speaking from personal experience from creating hospital articles. – The Grid ( talk) 23:59, 14 September 2020 (UTC) reply
No worries. I didn't think you did. I was just thinking you might have been able to find some sources have been sources I missed. I totally agree with you about it though.

  • Keep My goodness, this hospital is nearly three times the average size of an American hospital, and it's a Level 2 trauma center – the only trauma center in a three-county area – but we're just going to say that it doesn't "seem" notable and try to delete the article? Because nobody ever writes anything about large hospitals? Or maybe the nom thinks that hospitals in general aren't notable, since he's been regularly nominating articles about hospitals for deletion (very few of which close with deletion)? Hint: When we're talking about a modern community hospital in the developed world, and you can't find multiple, in-depth sources for it, then problem is in your search methods, not with the notability of the hospital. And for reference, a Critical Access Hospital in the US is fewer than 25 beds, and those are notable, too. WhatamIdoing ( talk) 01:04, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply

      • I mean, there is a basic premise underlining Wikipedia that people have to write about something for there to be an article about it. It is an encyclopedia after all. Not a business directory. Excuse me for not treating it like though. That aside, quite a lot of the articles I nominate get deleted and a lot of times when they don't its mostly because you, the ARS goons, and other people like you who think this is a phonebook and that there shouldn't be any inclusion criteria at all come along and steam role things by spouting nonsense and attacking nominators. Which isn't on me. Maybe I'd be more inclined to question my nomination record if they didn't involve so many utterly garbage keep rationales. I'm not really that about it though when most of the people who vote keep in the articles I nominate are doing so based on trash reasons like that I only nominated the article to target them because they edited it once 8 years ago. Considering things like that there's zero reason at this point that any of the people in your keep crowd should be taken seriously about anything. I don't see any of you criticizing your fellow keep voters who have legitimately less then less than stellar records either, nor do I because I think it's an extremely weak rhetorical method. That said though, I'd love to see you guys do it just for the sake of consistency. Get back to me when you've kicked everyone out of the Article Rescue Squad who has a less then 50% keep record (my delete record is way above that) or whatever. Then maybe I'll care about what you guys are saying. Until then though, I don't and I won't hold my breath about it. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 02:04, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply
        • Sure: people have to write something about for there to be an article. But journalists actually do write about hospitals, so that's not a problem.

Except they are, and that's why these nominations usually close as keep. — Toughpigs ( talk) 03:10, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply
No they aren't. You know what WP:NORG says about trivial coverage and it's completely ridiculous to claim a letter to the editor is a reliable source. No where does it say in any guideline that they are and there's rules about local sources. Including that using the same one a bunch of times like WhatamIdoing did here doesn't count as multiple sources. Anyway, most of "these" nominations don't get closed as keep. Just the ones you and the other people who seem to care less about the guidelines are involved in. Plenty of my nominations have resulted in delete though. It's just that you and the other inclusion at all cost people don't ever have any better arguments, let alone any guideline based ones, then to attack nominators. Even Catfurball who mainly edits Seventh-day Advantist articles and probably has a connection to them said this isn't notable enough to keep. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 03:20, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply

There also isn't a need to provide 9 references (that's refbombing) as you could have simply posted what you consider to be the best 3 (especially as there's nothing new here - they're already all in the article). I'll comment briefly on each one below:
      • This from American Theatre is already in the article and you linked to it above twice in your list. I'll spend more time explaining why this reference fails the criteria for establishing notability. The article starts by saying how the theatre was only steps from a large BLM protest and then quotes the artistic director on the issue. There is zero in-depth information on the company other than one sentence which states Founded by playwright and director Hausmann and playwright/director Moisés Kaufman, Miami New Drama is a nonprofit professional theatre company committed to artistic excellence and groundbreaking work unique to the diverse city of Miami, with a vision of theatre as a powerful form of social engagement. You'll find minor variations of this sentence in hundreds of similar "articles" on this company. This is not in-depth information but a generic statement. The article then continues with a narrative switching between quotations from people involved with the company and then essentially framing the comment into the narritive. This is the epitome of churnalism and its essentially PR. This reference fails WP:NCORP for the lack of any in-depth details on the company and fails WP:ORGIND for the lack of any "Independent Content" on the company.
      • This from the Miami Herald is already in the article. It fails WP:CORPDEPTH, only mentions-in-passing. It fails WP:ORGIND as the information on the company has clearly been provided by the company.
      • This from Miama New Times is entirely based on an announcement by the City of Miami Beach (it says it in the article). Peppered with quotes from involved people, nothing original. Fails WP:ORGIND.
      • This from Broadway World is based on two pieces of news - the second is based on an announcement by the Knight Foundation although it isn't clear on where to attribute the news about staying in the same venue for the next 5 years. It's news but there's no attributed journalist (just "the newsdesk") but more importantly there is no Independent Content as per WP:ORGIND. It's the same formula of quotations and text framing the quotes into the narritive.
      • This from Times of Israel is based on an interview with a company executive and provides detail on his past and life journet. There is zero "Independent Content" concerning the company, fails WP:ORGIND
      • This from Theater Mania is entirely based on an interview, no "Independent Content", fails WP:ORGIND.
      • This second from American Theatre has zero in-depth information on the company (other than what plays are current and the obligatory quotation from the company executive), fails WP:CORPDEPTH
      • This from NBC News is mainly about the company executive and only mentions the company in passing with zero in-depth information. Fails both CORPDEPTH and ORGIND.
      • In my opinion, there's already plenty said about this company in the article on Michel Hausmann and it this company is not notable in its own right. Sure, it exists and is putting on great theatre, but if it was really notable, somebody other than local newspapers or news channels would have written about it. HighKing ++ 21:16, 20 September 2020 (UTC) reply
        • HighKing, at this point you are making up rules, not adequately reading the articles (try doing Control+F miami new drama on each), and just doubling down on your initial negativity. I can't even take you seriously at this point, especially when you say "there's already plenty said about this company in the article on Michel Hausmann and it this company is not notable in its own right". Softlavender ( talk) 23:33, 20 September 2020 (UTC) reply
          • Softlavender, I think you'll find that I pretty much only participate in AfDs for organizations and not for other topics. Here's stats on the latest 200 AfD's I've participated in. So telling me that I'm "making up rules" is pretty lame and nonsensical considering that my stats show my !vote agrees with consensus over 87% of the time whereas your stats show agreement only 68% of the time. So I'd guess I've probably a more in-depth understanding of this stuff that you do. I've tried to explain to you why exactly the references fail the criteria for establishing notability. If you prefer to disagree, fine, but this isn't a !vote counting exercise and the closing admin will weigh the arguments. So far, I've responded to every reference and rather than you pointing out which parts of the guidelines you think I'm misinterpreting, or why, you've resorted to name calling. Doesn't look great.

        • It isn't about the volume. There could be thousands and the topic might still fail the criteria for establishing notability. Check out WP:NCORP and especially WP:ORGIND (in relation to Independent Content) and WP:CORPDEPTH (in relation to in-depth coverage). If you believe there are some articles that meet those criteria, post a link so we can take a look ourselves. HighKing ++ 16:35, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • OK, so you can't (or won't) post anything other than a vague wave in the general direction of an archive. I've already looked at hundreds of articles mentioning "Miami New Drama" and none meet the criteria for establishing notability as per WP:NCORP. I've asked for specific references and not a single Keep !voter can post one other than using WP:ASSERTN excuses. Fine. I'm happy to leave this to a closing admin. I'll keep an eye and if anyone posts an actual link to something concrete, I'll take a look. Not trying to argue, was hoping to engage constructively but I guess that takes two.

  • Keep I vote to keep this article on Wikipedia. I am a publisher on Brazilian Wikipedia and in fact the article does not exist on wikipedia in Portuguese, however, I noticed that there is a plot in Brazilian wikipedia to block the article and this same plot has been working to eliminate this page here on wikipedia in English. This editor who marked the elimination page is constantly blocked on the Portuguese wikipedia due to vandalism. Today, he did several vandalism actions on the pages of Anitta, Pabllo Vittar and other Brazilian artists, he is not a reliable editor. Regarding the relevance of the Brazilian award, I can say as a Brazilian, that the award is very important in the country. The event has already been featured in several major Brazilian portals such as Jornal Extra from the Globo group and Todateen of Uol magazine and several other portals, just search Google, outside the country, the award also has very expressive media coverage in several languages, having already been featured in vehicles with CNN, Yahoo, RTV 21, MSN, Telegrafi, Jawa Pos, Allkpop, among many others. The conspiracy charge is because this same group of Brazilian wikipedists came together to eliminate the page in Spanish, using false justifications. In the same Brazilian wikipedia, there are pages for awards such as Capricho Awards, Prêmio Contigo Online and Prêmio Quem Online, which are mere online polls and which receive coverage only in the vehicle that promotes them, differently from the BreakTudo Awards that today are really big in the country. I ask the attention of the wikipedists English natives for this fact this group of Brazilian wikipedists is acting, in Brazil they are the same ones that bar influencers like Leo Picon and Nah Cardoso. The award is publicized by several Brazilian artists and nothing that is not really relevant would get such coverage. It is clear that it is an act of vandalism and boycott, something that harms Brazilian artists, who struggle for recognition in the world of music. SHE Pabllo Vittar ( talk) 21:50, 7 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • First of all, the fact that the editor who nominated this article for deletion was blocked on pt.WP doesn't matter here. Second, your accusations against him are personal attacks which can result in sactions against you. I ask you to, either, prove your accusations with diffs or strike your remarks. Third, this article was deleted on pt.WP for the same reason they are being deleted him, because it's a brazen attempt to use the WP as means for promotion. Fourth, none of the refs on the article are reliable, indepent or cover the subject in depth. Fifth, there are no "plot" here. The only plot here is a company trying to use WP for propaganda.-- SirEdimon Dimmi!!! 22:54, 7 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • I'm a Lusophone's sysop and CheckUser. I attest that the BreakTudo Awards theme was a constant target of puppets, abusing recreations disrespecting the community's decision. So I am not surprised to see new accounts being created to defend maintenance. About the award, this is more media than notorious. Therefore, there will obviously be numerous sources addressing the topic. In contrast, the overwhelming part of the sources comes down to rubbish from entertainment portals and many publish paid content. Another part of the sources are "lists" of nominees/winners or report a particular celebrity competing. These, by the way, cover more personality than the prize.
    A brief analysis of some of the sources cited here in the discussion:
    • Observatório de Música: it belongs to a "network" of entertainment sites, they publish advertisements and make "news" based on posts from Instagram and Twitter, as appears to be the case since it quotes a tweet.
    • Extra: blog hosted on the domain, passes content paid naturally.
    • Blastingnews: collaborative
    • TodaTeen: says that Manu Gavassi was nominated, talks more about the singer than about the award.
    • Click Paraná: advertising, see "Por Assessoria"
    • Blogue
    • Countless sources that only speak of the nominee
    • CNN: mention, reports that the group won the award and continues talking about the group.
    • Yahoo: collaborative base fan transfer.
  • Finally, there is no first-rate source in Brazilian journalism that supports any importance of the award. Examples: Folha SP, Estado de SP, G1, Gazeta and Zero Hora. The award is only mentioned in worthless entertainment portals. Some mentions there and here, some repercussions about nominees and winners... and is that significant coverage from reliable sources? Do not. It has already been eliminated in Portuguese, Spanish and Korean and everything is part of a "saga", according to the editor "SHE Pabllo Vittar". Honestly, you need to have a lower reasoning ability to discuss issues that already begin in this way. Edmond Dantès d'un message? 12:40, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

 Comment: There are reliable sources that mention this award. UOL's Observatório da Música , Globo's Extra and UOL's Toda Teen. Extra is a major news source, owned by the giant Globo. Toda Teen and Observatório da Música are maintained by UOL, a big news sources on the internet. I don't know if that should be enough to keep the article, and I don't know if they prove the award is notorious enough, so that's why I won't vote. But there are reliable sources that talk about it, no doubt. Mateussf ( talk) 21:37, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Keep The coverage from trusted sources is quite significant, and moreover the tabloids usually talk more about the artist than about the award itself, it is normal.

 Comment: On the 19th of this month I was editing the Maisa Silva page and there I ended up on the BreakTudo Awards page, I saw that it was marked for elimination by consensus and I decided to vote for keeping it. Since I believe this award is indeed notorious to be maintained in the project. I didn't get any message to cast my vote here, I'm sorry to be accused of that. I barely use Facebook, just for the record. My vote is not part of meat puppetry. A user above wants to maintain his point of view on the discussion saying that this is not notorious, I understand that he wants this, but making this type of accusation to me is very disrespectful.

The result was redirect to Minecraft. There is a lot of discussion here, but the general consensus is that the topic is relevant (though people differ by how much), and may be notable. However, there is more weight that independent notability has not been clearly demonstrated, so a redirect is merited. If there's content that's worth merging, it can be added from the history. I'd recommend putting a recreation through AFC if any user feels they can demonstrate stand alone notability in reliable sources. I would be happy to move this content to the draftspace/userspace upon request (though it isn't deleted, so anyone can do so on their own initiative).

Delete per WP:NOTGAMEGUIDE and failing WP:GNG. Largely sourced to game guide pages, and Redstone and its unique gameplay is already discussed in the main article for Minecraft.

  • Restore Redirect to Minecraft, which is what it existed as previously. There are some mentions of it in reliable sources that are not just game guides, as it is a major element of the game, but nothing that would justify needing it to be WP:SPLIT from the main article. Rorshacma ( talk) 18:42, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Comment - That concept is already discussed in the main Minecraft article under the "Education" heading, though.

Rorshacma ( talk) 19:07, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete (redirect) as a non-notable item in a video game failing WP:GNG with insufficient reliable independent in-depth sources, such as WP:VG/RS. The content about redstone creations is sourced but not specific to redstone itself and can be in the game's article as relevant and does not need a split. Otherwise, it's gamecruft. —   HELLKNOWZ   ▎ TALK 19:36, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

No, I am not suggesting a merge. Minecraft article already covers redstone creations with good sources. There are no sources and no content I consider worth merging here.

  • Keep (but revert to draft) - I agree with User:Paintspot, I think it is a significant portion of the game that could be worthy of it's own article over time, and I feel the Minecraft article is a little bloated with trying to approach all of Minecraft's huge scope of many different subcommunties (e.g. Redstone, Building) in addition to discussing the game itself. However, I can appreciate that keeping it in the mainspace for now may not be the best thing to do, so I suggest that it gets reverted to draft form. That way it can get improved upon over time and eventually, when it is encyclopedic enough (and hence passes WP:GNG) can be reaccepted into the mainspace.

  • I don't agree. The year's budget is highly indicative of the standing of the school; a yearly budget of approx. 90 million US dollar is quite a sum, and the extension of facilities and programs shows that the school is not some local little school too. All information is dated, it is easy to refer to NOTNEWS in nearly every article. And the subject certainly meets GNG. Eissink ( talk) 11:23, 2 September 2020 (UTC). reply
  • The school is one of some 33 Sainik Schools in India, and this one would be the only one not notable? This DR doesn't make sense, even if the article could be better. Eissink ( talk) 11:49, 2 September 2020 (UTC). reply

  • Could you be a bit more specific? Saying "doesn't pass GNG" is so easy. I mean, the "topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", so it basically passes GNG, so what do you mean?

The coverage is all routine and insignificant; the first two refs are not reliable at all and the other three are secondary sources but the coverage is run-of-the-mill Spiderone 12:17, 3 September 2020 (UTC) reply
One could name all but the highest quality scientific editions "routine, insignificant and run-of-the-mill", but I don't agree. Even the three given newspaper sources separately contain valuable information about a considerable army school, one of two of the kind in the whole of Jammu & Kashmir. You may find it all insignificant, I don't, and we're not even only here for ourselves. I don't get why some people think we should hunt eight year old articles, even after they have been improved. Eissink ( talk) 12:40, 3 September 2020 (UTC). reply
  • Keep Per the existence of sources like [32], [33] and [34]. The standard for sourcing required of secondary schools has historically been low (due to the legacy WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES). While the majority of secondary schools in India are non-notable, this is one of the exceptions. This is a boarding school of note having a very selective entrance process. The sourcing available here is much more than what is typically available for an Indian school. If we delete this, we may as well delete 95% of all existing Indian school articles as they have lesser sourcing available than here.

  • Keep Agree with SD0001 that context is important in applying GNG. Most other 26 Sainik schools have similar or lower sourcing available. However this school with an annual budget of nearly Rs. 9 crores (approx 1.2 million USD) is notable (sources confirming this). Roller26 ( talk) 11:31, 10 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • We still judge articles on their own merits, not on their context. And yes, the school has a bduget, just like every other school in the world. So having a budget says nothing towards notability. The same with facilities. Ow, and interestingly, their own website-domain is expired... But it still fails WP:GNG and WP:NSCHOOL The Banner  talk 12:07, 10 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Context is important because India is a lower middle income country. Not all local and state level media have resources or need to maintain and update all their coverage on a proper website with index-able articles in non-English language. Even top media houses like Times of India routinely have expired links for couple of years old articles. Hence it's more than likely that significant coverage exists for such an institution in multiple local sources which are either not existing on web or at-least not easily Googlable. Having a significant budget (9 crore) for couple of hundred high school students shows the importance that Indian government gives to such an institute.

  • Delete: Per WP:NSCHOOL / WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES this article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NORG. WP:BEFORE revealed only routine run of the mill coverage and brief mentions, nothing that meets WP:SIGCOV which addresses the subject directly and in depth and is an WP:IS.

This is nothing but a parade of shortcuts – have you read or even seen the article? There's an abundance of IS SIGCOV links given in the footnotes, addressing solely the subject. I can't believe this is happening – you don't expect me to list the sources here when I have clearly stated that the article was expanded from no less than seven different independent media sources, do you?

Keep - I respectfully disagree. Schwulst fulfills section 1 of WP:CREATIVE as she is widely cited by peers in the field of design education. See: Interactive Design Syllabus citing Schwulst Parsons - Syllabus citing Schwulst Syllabus citing Schwulst VCU Syllabus citing Schwulst CCA syllabus citing Schwulst -- Wil540 art ( talk) 02:31, 8 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Those links are to college syllabi in which she is thanked or acknowledged (alongside other people) for providing inspiration or precedents or guidance to fellow academics in the field. This is not the same as being "cited by peers". "Cited by peers" would be her work cited in a piece of academic research e.g. her research used as a basis for another piece of research, or a publication by her referred to in a footnote. Is there evidence of this peer citation? MurielMary ( talk) 04:23, 8 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Acknowledgement in a syllabi is the design education equivalent of being cited by peers. Your understanding privileges academic writings over teaching practices. -- Wil540 art ( talk) 22:44, 10 September 2020 (UTC) reply
It's not my personal understanding, it's the language of the Wikipedia policy/guideline. If you disagree with "cited by peers" as a criteria and want to broaden the criteria to include "acknowledged in a college syllabi" then that is something for you to take up in another forum. As the policy stands, being acknowledged by peers does not seem to meet the criteria of notability for an academic. Also note that the phrase in the policy is "widely cited by peers", so being acknowledged by peers within the same institution as oneself would not seem to meet this criteria either.

  • Keep. It appears to me that she meets WP:CREATIVE. Besides being frequently mentioned, she is often interviewed in the context of web design, and is sometimes mentioned for her work or how she became a web designer. There seems to be content mentioning her in other languages [42], so WP:NEXIST cannot be neglected either.

  • Delete. I haven't been by WP in quite a while and I guess I'm surprised by how much the level of evidence / burden of proof has dropped here for keeping BIOs. This article is overloaded with REFs far beyond the importance of its subject, some are repeated, and almost all are webcruft. Second, the article was created and has been nurtured by a SPA and, taken with the level of minutiae in the article, it appears to be either a vanity or a fanpage. Third, there's no convincing statement of notability in the lede...unless vague claims of being notable for "innovative teaching methods" and such and sourced by webpages is now acceptable. 2600:1700:8650:2C60:D822:97B:9540:37E ( talk) 18:14, 23 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Subject does not meet WP:N.
A Google search of her name turns up just 2,340 hits.
The text of the article appears to be copied directly from the artist's (self-penned?) bio at a site called "Picasso Mio" ( https://www.picassomio.com/zsuzsa-szikra.html )
The article is rife with weasel words such as claiming that her "...works are marked by their poetic abstract character" (whatever that might be), and utterly pointless claims like "During her childhood Zsuzsa spend her summer holidays with her grandmother on the shores of Lake Balaton in Hungary" and "Zsuzsa and her grandmother made long boat trips on the lake Balaton which made a lasting impression on Zsuzsa..."
The article reads like an advertisement.
The article is full of cruft, such as a list of "study trips" in which the subject visited the Hermitage and other museums.
There are no images of the artist's work.
Four "external links" are listed, three of which either have 404 errors or revert to the homepage, and the fourth has 4 sentences (in Hungarian).
Trying to determine which -- if any -- of the 34 provided reflist links are active, are relevant, or support WP:N would be a Herculean task.
I propose that the article be deleted for failing to meet WP:N. Bricology ( talk) 10:03, 13 August 2020 (UTC) reply

1989 Portuguese Armed Forces order of battle

1989 Portuguese Armed Forces order of battle (  | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View AfD · Stats)

We have a whole bunch of articles on the order of battle per country (and sometimes per branch) in 1989. 1989 was more or less the end of the Cold War, but despite this, this articles all seem to have the same problem: a lack of notability. For example the Portuguese order of battle in 1989 has not been a separate subject of reliable sources, and is as such a random choice (a random intersection of characteristics) for an article, and no more or less notable than the 1988 or 1990 order of battle in Portugal.

  • Immediate keep: I propose to snowball close. The end of the Cold War in 1989 was a key event of the 20th century and the East-West confrontation with their massive military buildups began to unravel rapidly once the Berlin Wall fell. By 1990 every military had begun to downsize and Soviet Forces were moving out of Eastern Europe. 1989 was the end of Cold War. One of the big five years in military history of that century: 1914, 1918, 1939, 1945, 1989.

  • I'm having a hard time trying to justify a blanket keep for every different country.

Woody ( talk) 18:43, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep 1989 is one of the most important years of the Cold War, with 1989 marking the fall of the Berlin Wall (hence why Cold War historians use this number). It marks the peak of the armed forces of the Warsaw Pact and NATO, hence why this snapshot in time is so representative of their forces. I think it has sufficient notability to continue to exist. Garuda28 ( talk) 19:32, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Procedural keep These are notable articles based on the year and the composition of forces at that time. It is defining period in world history. An ambitious editor could create a list for such entries in relation to Warsaw Pact and NATO. I find the articles notable. Note: the problem with multiple items packaged as one, is we run the risk of deleting notable articles - so one reason I call for a procedural keep.

  • keep. 1989 was really the last year of the unprecedented military buildup of the 1980s, I for one have used these pages many times for use in wargames and writing as well as looking for historical sources within these pages. Also notable are the many force structure images showing individual divisional organizational charts, these are imperative for deducing a basic understanding of the late Cold War force structure. As for 1989 being no more notable than 1990 that is patently false. By the fall of the Berlin wall, many countries began to drastically reduce defense expenditures and shrink force postures. I truly hope the decision is made to keep all of these wikis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Taco107 ( talk • contribs) 21:35, 15 September 2020 (UTC) — Taco107 ( talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. reply
  • Keep. Sourced orders of battle are notable. Buckshot06 (talk) 21:58, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Many sources refer to 1989 as being the endpoint for Cold War era militaries (due to the effective end of the Cold War, and the commencement of negotiations for the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe which also led to rapid cutbacks), and use that as the benchmark for earlier and subsequent structures. As such, sourcing and notability should both be fine. Nick-D ( talk) 04:23, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Perhaps someone, anyone, among all those keep votes could have provided a few sources to show that e.g. 1989 Portuguese Armed Forces order of battle is a notable subject, meeting the WP:GNG. Anyone? Anything? "Should be fine", "Used it many times", "I find the articles notable", ... all very well, but in the end not a reason to keep any of these articles or all of them unless you have something to back up these claims. Fram ( talk) 06:21, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Note how e.g. Structure of the Austrian Armed Forces in 1989 has been correctly tagged as being completely unsourced since 2016.

    • Actually, there is a reason to delete them, just like for most AfDs: a lack of notability for the individual order of battle of Portugal, Switzerland, Belgium, ... in this year. It's one of the most basic dividing lines we have at enwiki; if there are no reliable, independent sources discussing the actual topic indepth, then we shouldn't have an article on it. That a lot of people find it useful or interesting is why Wikia was created. Fram ( talk) 06:49, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
      • No, there are lots of reliable independent sources discussing all these topics, in-depth. Your nomination of the Canadian article demonstrates how little you examined them: Noclador built that article from a detailed listing sourced from the recent Canadian defence review of the time.
      • To quote: "The article is based on the Canadian government's 1987 White Paper "A Defence Policy for Canada" (Link), which was published at the end of 1987. The White Paper served as basis for the overall structure and the equipment numbers. The article was then expanded with information from the Canadian Armed Forces Annual Historical Reports, which provided a complete listing of all units in existence in 1989."
      • Now, not all of them draw on official defence reviews, but just because, for example, the data has not been uploaded from the Bulgarian archives to make it accessible to English-speaking internet users does not mean that the article should be nominated for deletion. AfD is not cleanup. The sources exist - these are well functioning countries with great interest in the armed forces. They may not be in English, though.. Buckshot06 (talk) 11:23, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
        • Well, you start with "lots of reliable independent sources" (italics mine), and then give as example a prime example of a source which isn't independent at all, a white paper from the Canadian Government. So your rebuttal here is hardly convincing. Fram ( talk) 11:53, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
          • Whoops. Egg on my face. Should have read the phrase a little less angrily. No, whoops, no, not independent. What I mean to say is that these kind of incredibly detailed nationstate government listings are the most non-controversial kind of thing imaginable: they just about put you to sleep - that or the comparable Australian defence reviews which are of the same nature. Using this kind of non-independent sources are completely justified because they don't convey a particular political viewpoint - think about it - whether HQ 1 Canadian Brigade Group is in Vancouver or Calgary, and whether, thus, Headquarters Company, 1 Canadian Brigade Group, is in Vancouver or Calgary - does have any angle that can convey a political slant, diminishing reliability. On top of that, these kinds of unendingly boring lists are usually put out by governments within which we could attach citations to every particular unit. Would you rather have the Canadian article re-created by Noclador and I, but not with the single Canadian defence review source, but 950 footnotes from newspaper articles etc? Buckshot06 (talk) 12:08, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
            • No need for 950 footnotes and no need to remove such sources. They are perfectly reliable and useful once the notability of the subject has been established by independent sources. Not every fact, every detail, needs independent sourcing: using official sources for this is best practice (unless there is a reason to dispute or doubt them of course). Fram ( talk) 13:13, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
              • Those putative 950 newspaper, article, magazine, book-sourced, footnotes demonstrate the independent and reliable source coverage, thus, the subject is notable. If you want a single, specific, reliable, independent source that demonstrates the notability of this subject in this time period, see NATO Armies Today. Oxford: Osprey Publishing. 1987. {{ cite book}}: Cite uses deprecated parameter |authors= ( help), reprinted 1988 (copy available for perusal here). It includes this exact kind of listing of army units for most of these countries (though not air or WP). The official sources are the most accurate and we should base ourselves on them, but please, if you're happy with the putative other sources, such as Thomas & Volstad 1988, then just withdraw this time-wasting nomination. Buckshot06 (talk) 22:42, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
                • No, sources from prior to 1989 or from 1989 can not demonstrate that the 1989 OoB of these countries is particularly notable. What would be needed is sources from later showing how the 1989 Oobs were somehow special, as a group (so not a source about regiment X and another about Battalion Y, but a few about the importance of the 1989 Swiss OoB and so on. Fram ( talk) 06:26, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
                  • Where does it say 'independent, reliable, and of later date' when it talks about the GNG? You're now going well beyond our policy guidelines. Better to stick to what it actually says - independent and reliable. Your claim has no validity.
                  • But, if I treat your request for a later date's source as merely a polite request for information, that particular book in question that I just provided the reference for was reprinted. It was first published in 1987, then reprinted in 1988.
                  • Then it was reprinted three more times, in 1995, 1998, and 1999.
                  • So (a), we have provided you official sources, which are the most authoritative source, since it's their armed forces; (b) independent and reliable sources, demonstrating unquestioned WP:NOTABILITY; and, also, as a favour to you, I have in good faith provided the extra information that you would have found had you looked at the reference - yes there was continuing interest in those independent and reliable sources for many years afterwards.
                  • This nomination is frivolous, as demonstrated above, and has *no* policy-based relevance. Kindly withdraw it forthwith. Buckshot06 (talk) 10:08, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
                    • Nothing frivolous about it. The only reason to withdraw it would be to restart it for individual articles. Back to your point: a source from 1987 or 1988 can hardly be used as evidence that 1989 is such a special, noteworthy year. That the source is reprinted afterwards doesn't change this one bit. We need an independent, reliable source, written in or preferably after 1989, showing that the 1989 OoB are especially noteworthy. Your source doesn't do that, you source literally can't do that.
                    • In fact, your sources actually disproves the whole "Oh, 1989 is so important for the OoB" argument. If a source called "NATO Armies Today" can be published in 1987, and reprinted identically in 1995, 1998, and 1999, then where is the watershed of 1989, which makes this whole series of articles necessary? For your claims to be true and these articles to be necessary, the book you present as damning evidence for your cause should have become completely outdated by 1990 and would never have been reprinted as "Todays armies" by the late 1990s. You can't have your cake (1989 is important because everything changes) and eat it (this 1987 book being reprinted unchanged in 1998 and 1999 proves it!). Fram ( talk) 10:45, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
You are trying to argue that 1989 (well, the late 1980s, 1987, 1988) wasn't specifically important. I am saying the demand for information about NATO armies in the late 1980s was important enough that the book was reprinted, by popular demand, three more times!! There was no total change by 1990 - the force structure changes hardly started. And this was *well before* the internet; gathering information was much more difficult; a comparable book in 1984-85, Isby & Kamps, fell so far behind completing and updating that an extra author had to be brought on board.
Never mind. I have answered with a specific example, your request for an independent and reliable source focused on the late 1980s. This unquestionably demonstrates WP:NOTABILITY of the subject (though not perhaps the *exact* year 1989; I have my doubts on that, as I've said elsewhere here). I have in good faith also provided, in response to your request, detail saying it was done at a later date, wording not required or included in the policy.

No, I asked for an independent and reliable source focused on 1989, not on "the late 1980s". You have not provided "detail saying it was done on a later date", you have given an exact reprint of an earlier source. That a book which is not about 1989, gets written before 1989 and reprinted unchanged long after 1989, is supposed to be proof of the notability of these 1989 articles, is simply not a convincing argument at all. Fram ( talk) 11:38, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. I am ambivalent about this nomination but there is a distinct lack of policy-based argument above, with most comments above being shades of WP:ILIKEIT or WP:VALINFO. What makes an order of battle for 1989 more notable than, say, 1945 or 1956? My understanding is that many of these armies were already significantly below their Cold War peak by 1989 which could be argued to be the least justifiable year for the entire the Cold War. And why do all countries in Europe need to have orders of battle for the same date? I wrote Belgian Army order of battle (1914) on the basis that there were plenty of sources which addressed the specific nature of the Belgian Army at the outbreak of World War I but I do not see the same source basis here. — Brigade Piron ( talk) 09:17, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • I agree that the focus on 1989 is sometimes taken to extreme levels. Noclador has unwisely tried to push the source limitations re the Army National Guard for 1989 when there is a single available source, Isby & Kamps, clearly laying out 1985 which could be substituted.
      • Most Cold War armies were at their peak in 1989. The Reagan build up of military forces went on throughout the 1980s. I.e. the Italian Army was at its strength peak between 1 December 1988 (activation of the Motorized Brigade "Sassari") and 1 April 1991 (disbanding of the Armored Brigade "Mameli"), the US Army was at its post-Vietnam peak between 16 April 1986 (activation of the 6th Infantry Division) and 15 September 1990 (inactivation of 2nd Brigade, 2nd Armored Division, followed two weeks later by the inactivation of 1st Brigade, 9th Infantry Division), the German Army grew its strength all through the 1980s reaching full Heeresstruktur 4 in 1990 (Heeresstruktur 4: expanded 2x Jäger divisions to Panzergrenadier divisions, expanded 2x Panzergrenadier divisions to Panzer divisions, and added 12x armored Heimatschutzbrigaden). Heeresstruktur 5 began the drawdown of forces in 1990, which resulted in 27 brigades being disbanded by 20 March 1993. So 1989 IS the peak for Cold War forces on both sides of the Iron Curtain (the drawdown was even more massive and speedily in the Warsaw Pact nations). noclador ( talk) 17:37, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Meh I think it's hard with a group nomination such as this, but I agree with Brigade Piron that there has been a lack of policy-based !voting. I took a look at Canada and found the following (broad coverage of the army in 1989): Maclean's article, NYTimes article, [44], Strike, Carol. 1989. “Profile of the Canadian Armed Forces” Canadian Social Trends. No. 15. Winter. Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 11-008XPE. p. 17-22., [45], [46], and a 1989 conference. There's more coverage in the same vein, which suggests that 1989 is a very significant year in the Canadian army. Various books use 1989 as a cut-off point, such as Imagining Nuclear War in the British Army, 1945-1989 and US Army Rangers 1989–2015: Panama to Afghanistan, again indicating that it is a particularly notable year militarily. Does that justify having these extensive listings of structures? I don't know. Best, Eddie891 Talk Work 11:45, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • Thanks. While various books indeed use 1989 as a cut-off point, others use e.g. 1991, like "American Military Police in Europe, 1945-1991: Unit Histories" [47] or "A Military History of the Cold War, 1962–1991" [48]... Some of your results seem rather irrelevant as well, e.g. in this one [49] the words "order of battle" don't appear together with 1989. Actually, when looking for "1989" and "order of battle" in books [50], it becomes quite clear that the results mostly deal with the order of battle in actual active wars, and not in the more theoretical sense of the "order of battle" in a stand-off situation like here. Fram ( talk) 12:04, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
      • The term "order of battle" means very little. What we are dealing with is a listing of every unit (or restricted to every combat units only) in a nationstate army or navy or air force, with their locations, in their correct command structure hierarchy, and sometimes with their equipment. Sometimes sources call that 'order of battle'; sometimes they call it 'structure'; sometimes they simply call it a 'list'. Now here on WP we often standardize terminology across different countries, and people who work on the same things will often use the same terms for multiple countries. And we work with the limitations of our language - I am not sure what such a list compiled in Bulgarian for Bulgaria would be titled, but it might not be 'order of battle.' None of that semantics changes anything about the notability of the material. Buckshot06 (talk) 12:14, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
        • I think Fram has a valid point and I think WP:INDISCRIMINATE is relevant. An order of battle by itself is unlikely to be notable, but can certainly form an important part of an article on a notable subject. I can quite understand the rationale of an article on the Swedish Army in the Cold War era (for example) which would address the size, composition, politics, equipment, and contemporary role of the Swedish Army in the Cold War era. The current order of battle in Structure of the Swedish Armed Forces in 1989 would be a valid part of such an article, but not an article in its own right. — Brigade Piron ( talk) 13:19, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Fram 1989 was the most defining year of the Cold War - you can read about it at Revolutions of 1989. In military terms, how momentous was this year: well, the Cold War era Polish People's Army was disbanded on 31 December 1989. That alone warrants an article about the Polish People's Army structure in 1989. Likewise the Nationale Volksarmee began to disband in January 1990 and was dissolved on 2 October 1990. The Pentagon announced on 29 January 1990 which divisions and brigades would disband in the post Cold war era. The Soviet Union began to return its Group of Soviet Forces in Germany on 1 June 1989, with three divisions gone by 12 October 1990. The Soviets began to leave Czechoslovakia in February 1990. East Germany took its forces out of the Warsaw Pact military structure in summer of 1990, Czechoslovakia, Poland and Hungary followed. And so on and on. 1989 is per se a notable year for everything. It's like 1939 or 1945 a key year of the 20th century. Demanding we prove for every single European country the notability of the events related to military matters in 1989 is not needed. As said 1989 is a key year of history, especially for military history of Europe and political history of Europe. Notability is given that in 1989 a 44-year long war ended and the militaries of the nations involved in that war are per se notable. noclador ( talk) 18:15, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. A sourced snapshot of a particular situation (military forces in Europe and the US) at a particular time is one area where WP excels as an online encyclopedia, free of the limitations of print. See WP:5P1. I really don't understand why some editors want WP to be less informative. RobDuch ( talk· contribs) 00:00, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • But these articles are hardly informative. The defense is that 1989 was ultra-special as the end of the Cold War, and that things changed rapidly and dramatically: but then we would need, want, expect an article about changes, not one showing a static snapshot. These articles learn me absolutely nothing about the supposed importance, the impact of the end of the Cold War. Structure of the Canadian Armed Forces in 1989 is a very long article which teaches me completely nada about the Cold War, the events of 1989, the impact these had on the Canadian Army, ... It's just a glorified database. Fram ( talk) 06:26, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
      • Fram Your comment above shows that you have a total lack of knowledge about these topics. These articles are highly informative and full of valuable knowledge, but one must be able to read them and understand them. The article you mention is not "just a glorified database", that's an ignorant and insulting comment. The article is a clear snapshot of how the Canadian military was organized at the end of the Cold War, and if you took some time to read it than this snapshot can show you how Canada planned to fight a war in Europe, how it planned to grow its army, where it expected to have to defend its own territory, where it expected to have to support NATO's maritime strategy, how it expected to contain Soviet nuclear subs, how it interacted with the US military, and and and. As you are unable to understand the information in these articles and therefore incapable to comprehend the value of these articles your AfD of all of them is an insult to the editors, who worked on them and use them repeatedly. If you want prose, there are 100s articles for that i.e. Military history of Canada, Canada in the Cold War, History of the Canadian Army, History of the Royal Canadian Navy, Canada in the Cold War, North American Aerospace Defense Command, Distant Early Warning Line, etc. etc. and so many more. Your above comment shows that you are not qualified to assess these articles and that you started this AfD out of ignorance and arrogance. I suggest you close this AfD immediately and stop wasting the time of qualified editors. noclador ( talk) 06:34, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • These AfDs should be split up. I agree mostly with Brigade Piron's comment. There should be a policy-based reason for keeping these articles, and so far few have really been provided that could apply to all of them. That said, the end of the Cold War year was an important time in history, and to delete all of these at once would be somewhat rash. These AfDs should be done individually, that way we can evaluate the sourcing for each one and see if the topic merits notability. For example, I can totally understand why a US order of battle from 1989 would matter, but I'm doubtful Portugal's is really of importance, seeing as its importance in the Cold War climaxed in the 1970s. - Indy beetle ( talk) 06:35, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • Comment: Indy beetle Portugal didn't "climaxed in the 1970s". Portugal's armed forces were part of NATO integrated command structure, providing one three-star maritime command (IBERLANT) and two two-star sea/land commands (ISCOMADEIRA and ISCOMAZORES), a key US Air Force REFORGER and Supply and maritime interdiction base (USAFORAZ) and providing 27 ships to SACLANT (and a reserve mechanized brigade to SACEUR). Besides only saying that the US order of battle matters ignores the Belgian, Dutch, British, Canadian and French divisions in Germany, whose presence there was THE defining aspect for the Cold War era for these countries. noclador ( talk) 17:40, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
      • But do the sources prove that this was a "defining aspect" for Portugal's military? The current state of the article does not suggest so. If this were just an AfD for the Portuguese Order of Battle, I'd be inclined to delete. - Indy beetle ( talk) 02:15, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • I'm always on the fence on what to do in cases like this. When I AfD just one article from a series of similar or related ones, I get questions about "why this one and not that one" or "you can't delete this one, it is part of a series". When I AfD them all, I get "we can't evaluate them all at once" or "but they aren't the same" (which, to be fair, is probably more the case here than in some other mass-AfDs I have done). I'll give it a bit more time, but it may indeed be best if I then withdraw this AfD and restart one for one country or section only. Fram ( talk) 07:18, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Moreover, it is irrational to delete the article as sometimes auxillaries get ordained. Wikimedia software automatically puts up a little warning against creating an article that has been previously deleted. This warning would be enough to scare away a decent chunk of so-called "content creator" type editors for good.

  • Keep In the Catholic Church a bishop, is a bishop, is a bishop until he's the pope. They may function differently depending on where they are and what they do, but they are all form the same order and are responsible for episcopal leadership in the Church. In a Church council/synod they all get one vote regardless. I do want to correct a couple of assertions above: all bishops are ordained bishop and auxiliaries are real bishops. The diocesan bishop has the ultimate responsibility in the local church, but his auxiliaries are not less of a bishop than he is. Farragutful ( talk) 19:16, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per Roberto221, Farragutful and past outcomes. Auxiliary bishops in the Roman Catholic Church are typically administrators of a defined area, usually several counties such as the suburbs of a major city that is the see of a metropolitan (Archbishop). They are also honorary bishops in a defunct diocese, such as in the former Ottoman Empire. Finally, they all get one equal vote in synods. In this particular case, he would probably govern part of the 1,400 square miles for the purposes of running that area, confirming teenagers, etc., and is to be Titular Bishop of Abora by the Euphrates. If this were an Episcopal or Lutheran assistant bishop, I would probably agree to delete, but in the Roman Catholic Church they have both substantive jobs and are figureheads of ancient sees. Unlike in some Christian denominations, only a bishop can ordain other clerics and preside over Catholic confirmations. Bearian ( talk) 20:02, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete: Bishops are simply managers. Some are good managers, others are bad managers. The Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse exposed many bishops as failing the community and failing to deal correctly with their staff, their employees, ordained to the order of presbyterate to directly assist bishops. Bishops avoided the Royal Commission, Archbishops stonewalled and one claimed that for the Royal Commission to pursue Bishops for failing to deal with criminals said, on record, "that would violate the primacy of conscience" of the criminal. Bishops are simply managers and they had to be dragged - all over the world, look at the fall of Theodore (no-longer-Cardinal) McCarrick, disgraced and returned to the lay state - kicking and screaming into bankruptcy and the courts over child sexual abuse. They can no longer hide from their duty to uphold criminal law, and protect the community. Just because they have ecclesiastical office does not mean they have any notability per se. WP:NBISHOP should be scrapped and Bishops should face GNG just like anyone else has to. Ante up, why should Bishops be something special when they ran from criminal law and protection of the community from paedophiles for so long?

"Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. None of the references in the article meet the criteria and having searched I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria. The links posted above by Astig are all based on company announcements, fails ORGIND. Topic fails GNG/ WP:NCORP. HighKing ++ 22:24, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply

The minimum number of international centuries to qualify as a list is set at 25, and has been since at least 2012. This is because a century is not a rare feat in cricket, so in order to establish something that does not WP:MIRROR ESPNcricinfo or CricketArchive, we have set 25 as a more notable benchmark for lists, otherwise we head toward WP:NOTSTATS territory. Hafeez himself is unlikely to play international cricket again, so will not be adding to his tally. StickyWicket ( talk) 08:38, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Weak delete. While the page in its current form skirts close to qualifying for a G11 speedy, the assertion that he won "major (amateur) junior tournaments domestically, regionally, and worldwide" might benefit from elaboration. If references could be found to prove this, and the tournaments did indeed prove to be "major", then this might demonstrate notability per WP:SPORTSPERSON (A sportsperson is presumed to be notable if the person has actively participated in a major amateur ... competition ... and so is likely to have received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject.) However, even if notability could be claimed under this criterion, the page is such a blatant breach of WP:NOTLINKEDIN that it would probably still benefit from being nuked from space and started from scratch. ~dom Kaos~ ( talk) 13:27, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

I think as the consensus thought earlier, that the references are at best promotional interviews, and the attempts to defend the article by accusing us of prejudice against Indian source irrelevant-- newspapers in all countries, even ordinarily reliable ones, publish promotional interviews--the party notable in such cases is the press agent.

Faisal Farooqui along with other prominent startup founders have fought preserve open internet in India, and won against Facebook and Airtel (Big Telecom operator). There is lots of news coverage on this.

Faisal Farooqui runs India's biggest customer reviews website called Mouthshut.com and have taken head on to fight against some of the biggest companies in the world, who are trying to take his venture down or trying to whitewash negative reviews by customers about various brands and products. I suspect there is a big organized racket trying to discredit him and his initiatives.

Faisal Farooqui's notability is well established. He is frequently quoted by prominent newspapers and appears in national televisions in India on various socio-economic issues and internet technologies.

Non-notable organization, fails WP:GNG and WP:NORG.

Detailed analysis of available sources

The first published mention of the organization anywhere is a 2007 news article in The Daily Star. [62] It is significant coverage in an independent, reliable source. It is straight news reporting, however, not a secondary source, as the reporter does not provide any "analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the facts, evidence, concepts, and ideas taken from primary sources" (the police press conference / perp walk).

The same day, the Hindustan Times references the online version of the DS article, tosses in some background information on other organizations, and generally gins up the story. For example, the original, where an arrestee confessed members used to fake their own kidnappings to extract money from their parents to fund the organization, gets spun into "those arrested confessed after interrogation that it was involved in kidnappings." It is significant coverage in an independent, reliable source. Their reinterpretation of the story arguably makes it a secondary source. However, the footnotes to the WP:GNG caution that multiple newspapers publishing the same story don't always constitute multiple works, "especially when the authors are relying on the same sources, and merely restating the same information." Although HT adds information, that information isn't about the organization.

One book contains one sentence about the organization. [63] That isn't significant coverage. I suspect their source is Wikipedia, which would also make it WP:CIRCULAR.

Since the 2007 article, the organization appears regularly in newspapers, on a list of 30 or so Islamic organizations suspected by Bangladeshi authorities of involvement in militancy ("There is a strong possibility that the organisations might get involved in militant activities anytime. So, we're closely watching their activities"). [64] [65] [66] Being mentioned on a long list is not significant coverage.

To summarize the sources visually according to WP:ORGCRIT:

Source Significant? Independent? Reliable? Secondary? Pass/Fail Notes
The Daily Star Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Red XN Red XN No analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis by the author
Hindustan Times Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Question? Not intellectually independent of The Daily Star (with respect to the organization)
Book Red XN Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Red XN One sentence
Various news stories Red XN Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Red XN Brief mentions in a long list
Total qualifying sources 0-1
There must be multiple qualifying sources to meet the notability requirements

No clear merge or redirect target. The Hindustan Times says it's "a breakaway of the Harkat-ul-Jihad Islam (HUJI)", but it's unclear whether that's actually true. Their source (The Daily Star) says the organization is allegedly led by a founding member of HUJI, which isn't necessarily the same as being a splinter from it. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 03:07, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Semi-advertorialized article about a student radio station, referenced entirely to its own self-published content about itself rather than any external verification that it actually passes any of WP:NMEDIA's criteria for the notability of radio stations.

And here's Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rock, Missouri's more specific cousin. State Historical Society calls it "Sandstone Post Office", which really does seem to indicate no town. Not on the 1886 topo despite existing at that time. (Something to note: I've found a bit of a correlation between appearing on the 1886 topo and being an actual place for the Vernon and Cedar County places). 1939 topo includes places with the names "Sandstone School" and "Sandstone Cemetery", but no indication of a town by the name of Sandstone. By 1991, Sandstone appears on the topo, but with only two buildings there (it's east of the cemetery, but the school's disappeared by '91). Searches for notability-giving coverage brings up nothing, although the total genericness of the name doesn't help. Well, given that it doesn't show up on the topos until the year it gets entered into GNIS (90 years after it's heyday!), and the fact that it's referred to as a post office in historical sources, I'd say Sandstone fails GEOLAND and GNG.

    4. [77] QA interview with no independent analysis
    5. [78] I think it would be a stretch to call this significant coverage, it's largely a softball interview with almost nothing other than quotes from Norton.
    6. [79] Not entirely sure what's going on here, the website appears to be a resume-site for one Elizabeth Baker. I don't think it's reliable
    7. [80] more coverage like #2 and #3. Slightly less routine, but not independent
    8. [81] QA interview
    9. [82] crowdsourced (read: unreliable) source, doesn't mention Norton
    10. [83] Quotes Norton but doesn't provide much independent coverage about him
    11. [84] Alumni publication that actually provides some coverage of Norton, best coverage so far
    12. [85] Independent, reliable coverage...of Honest Iago, that barely mentions Norton. It's not significant coverage of Norton
    13. [86] This link wouldn't open for me, but it appears to be another Honest Iago review at best
    14. [87] "Get to know a founder", not independent
    15. [88] Reads like a sponsored post, independence and significance of coverage are dubious
    16. [89] Reads like a press release
    17. [90] Listing by the record company that published one of Norton's works, not independent
    18. [91] Contains a piece by Norton, not about him
    All told, we've got one, maybe two independent pieces about Norton with borderline-significant coverage, and some ok coverage of one band that he was in that doesn't mention him much. I don't think this meets GNG. signed, Rosguill talk 20:10, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    Rosguill Thanks a lot for putting together all these links. Seeing them near one another surely gives a different picture. Some of the links are less independent that seemed to me the first time I looked at them. Some talked more about the band than I had initially assessed. However, we have to agree that he appears quite often here and there, and "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" WP:BASIC. QA interviews cannot be discarded, as it also contributes to establish the subjects notability. Why would you interview someone that is not notable? I agree with you that this interview [92] is not reliable, as the website owner has a reason to publish whatever ( WP:CONFLICT, I guess). But the others are fine. For completeness, I'd like to add the links [93] and [94].

    Anyway, now that I was forced to go over all these sources, I'm slightly leaning towards a delete because all sources fail one of the pillars "reliable", "independent" and "significant coverage", and they do not make me comfortable in saying that Norton is notable in the sense of WP:BIO "the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be worthy of notice" or [...] "remarkable" or "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded" within Wikipedia as a written account of that person's life. "Notable" in the sense of being famous or popular—although not irrelevant—is secondary". Best, Walwal20 talk ▾ contribs 00:07, 19 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    QA interviews don't provide us with any information other than what comes out of the subject's mouth; they're not usable for building an article except to contextualize or flesh out points already made by secondary sources. Sometimes QA pieces will open with a blurb about the subject, and that can be mined for writing an article, but in these examples I don't recall seeing much of that across the QA interviews. signed, Rosguill talk 00:31, 19 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete He's definitely not notable for his teaching and I see nothing that meets any criteria at WP:NCREATIVE. Being an "assistant music editor" for two TV shows and an unreleased film do not seem like enough to me. There are a lot of sources, but when I go through them I'm not seeing much in the way of significant coverage from sources that are both reliable and independent. Therefore, I'd say he fails to meet WP:GNG and so I find no notability criteria that he meets. Papaursa ( talk) 12:40, 19 September 2020 (UTC) reply

There is a fair amount of coverage in Boston-area publications such as WBUR and The Boston Globe, but a lot of it (e.g., [95]) seems like WP:ROUTINE announcements of festival lineups or similar. It is not clear to me that this festival has heft comparable to Sundance, Cannes, TIFF, etc.—especially since I don't see coverage in trade journals like the The Hollywood Reporter that would indicate industry prominence.

The porn performer/model does not have significant coverage in reliable sources and therefore does not pass WP:BASIC in my view.

  • Porn awards don't confer notability on the recipient without independent reliable sources that attest to the significance of the win. The WP:PORNBIO secondary notability guideline was deprecated in 2019 for this exact reason. As for "International Film Festival," you will need to be more specific and, more important, name a reliable source. Both the festival's and the actress' names are too generic, and independent searches yield false positives for a mainstream actress with a similar name. • Gene93k ( talk) 11:47, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Additional comment: I see from your edits, that you are referring to the Queen Palm International Film Festival. Two problems: 1. That TheHollywoodTimes reference is an obvious refactored press release from the filmmakers. 2. Neither the film Teenage Lesbian nor the festival articles have independent reliable references to demonstrate notability per WP:NFILM and WP:ORG respectively. Starring in a porn industry award-winning porn film is a very weak claim even for WP:ENT. • Gene93k ( talk) 11:58, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
comment: what are the criteria of notability then? If it were only because of the AVN awards, she would be notable. Unless you are contesting the notability of the AVN Awards as whole. On the other hand, what else undisputed criteria can you adopt to state the notabily of a porn performer? -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 14:25, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • @ Blackcat: The consensus since 2019 is that porn awards by themselves, even AVN Hall of Fame, are not enough to establish notability. A porn performer can still be notable by meeting the General Notability Guideline/ WP:BASIC with significant coverage by reliable independent secondary sources. Interviews and press releases don't count as secondary. Most porn sources like Fleshbot don't count as reliable. Porn award rosters lack depth of coverage and generally lack reliable secondary source coverage that proves significance. A porn performer also may be notable by passing one the the secondary criteria of WP:NACTOR, if and only if independent reliable secondary sources can support the claims. In this case, porn award wins + low quality sources do not add up to notability. • Gene93k ( talk) 17:33, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Non-notable academic conference. Fails WP:EVENT, WP:GNG and related guidelines. In terms of the EVENT guidelines, and in particular WP:ROUTINE, a BEFORE review suggests that this is just an otherwise run-of-the-mill academic conference, with nothing indicating that it has had any enduring historical significance, lasting relevance, or been subject of anything other than very limited coverage. In terms of GNG guidelines, I can find no news coverage to speak of in either the Irish national or relevant regional papers: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6].

  • Keep: The nominator's argument is that this list is an unnecessary copy of the larger one. My argument for Keep is that this list doesn't actually bear much resemblance to the larger one. The Simpsons is #1 on this list; it's #27 on the main list. Then you have to go down to #50 before you get to the second one. When people ask, "What's the longest-running American primetime shows?" they're often thinking about the scripted series — The Simpsons, Law & Order and Gunsmoke, rather than Hallmark Hall of Fame, Walt Disney Presents and 60 Minutes. It is difficult for a reader to pull this information out of the larger list — you have to know at a glance whether The Challenge is scripted or unscripted. Therefore, this is not an unnecessary rehash. — Toughpigs ( talk) 02:40, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Fails WP:NORG and WP:NSCHOOL. WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES tells us we don't have articles on middle schools unless there is something exceptional about it. Being destroyed by an act of God and rebuilt is a WP:1E event and speaks little, if at all, to notability. Between fires, floods, tornadoes and hurricanes, there are several US schools destroyed by acts of God annually. The only secondary sources are about the aftermath of the hurricane or transactional.

  • Keep I'm not really sure what has changed about this article since it was first nominated for deletion, other than information has just recently been removed (by someone who wants to delete the article) that should have been updated rather than removed. The whole middle schools get deleted and high schools get kept bit has been a quite controversial one, since it doesn't have a firm basis in WP:GNG, which states that there needs to be significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. The reason for keeping high schools and deleting middle schools is that a lot of middle schools don't have the kind of coverage this one does. The problem with merging the material to the district article or to the Hurricane Charley article is that we would really be giving PGMS undue attention in either of those articles to include all of the encyclopedic information currently in the PGMS article in one of them.

  • Redirect to Charlotte County Public Schools This came on my radar thanks to the trainwreck that was the Punta Gorda bus fight AfD, and I was ready to bring this to AfD myself. It's an average middle school (and middle schools go through hurricanes and get rebuilt like other schools), and though I'm sure the editor above is really proud of this article...they are also WP:INVOLVED (not in the admin sense) as someone who is from that school district (their userpage has that information, so there is NO outing involved here) and as one of their early Wiki creations. The text involved is a minor school official's WP:RESUME point, school stats that are fifteen years out of date, a mascot that 98% of the time, students never think about because middle school sports are never really competitive, and bog-standard information about how the new building is built to stronger hurricane codes (it would be unusual if they thumbed their nose at FEMA and built a shoddy structure).

    • I’m going to clarify that I am an alumnus of that school, but not otherwise affiliated with it; I work for Sarasota County Public Schools, not Charlotte County, and I was in high school when I wrote the article.

      • Comment As mentioned by JfI, SCHOOLOUTCOMES has really tightened up since 2007 to where only high school and high school equivalents get keeps, and middle schools are usually considered redirects with elementary schools due to the muddled state of American education (some districts have them in elementary/middle combos, some alone, some use the different junior high school concept and push it to tenth grade, and there's small cases where 4K-8 is elementary education). There's usually nothing outstanding about middle schools that justifies an article broadly here. Nate • ( chatter) 04:04, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Note - As nominator, I'm fine with the redirect. We're here because my BOLD redirect to the district was reverted. A note for the article's creator: as of an RfC about 18 months ago, the automatic notability for high schools ended. We're not mass deleting existing articles routinely, but several high school articles have been deleted since. New school articles are now required to meet GNG. This article has never met GNG, as most of the sources are about the 1E event. It's great info to include in a notable article, and indeed it should be covered in the history section of the school district article. I'm all in favor of a merge of this info, along with a redirect of this article. John from Idegon ( talk) 00:15, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply

This pastor doesn't seem notable enough to pass WP:NBIO. Since out of the four sources in the article, two of them are primary, one is a local newspaper, and the other is an obituary. None of which works for notability. Also, the introduction is heavily COPYVIOed from this website. Once you get rid of that, the only things left about him are that he was accused of something and died. So, this article fails WP:NBIO and probably also WP:GNG. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 00:30, 7 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Master thesis' don't work for notability because they are original research. That aside, I don't think two books about Charles Taze Russell, which aren't about him and probably only mention him in passing in regards to Charles Taze Russell attending one of his presentations (since that seems to be only connection they have to each other) do either. People are named dropped in books about other people all the time. There has to be more then that for them to be notable though. Including in-depth coverage. Which books about other people don't usually provide. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 09:55, 23 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Regarding using theses: Not quite. The actual policy details are found here: WP:SCHOLARSHIP. I haven't looked into whether the thesis made waves, but at the very least it could be added as an external link to improve the article. DiamondRemley39 ( talk) 02:40, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
If we are going to assume, assume that, as Wendell was a major influence on Taze Russell, that Wendl will be mentioned more than in passing in biographies of Taze Russell. I am wondering if Adamant1 has ever read a book-length biography--most biographies have in-depth information about other people, excepting perhaps picture book biographies for children. DiamondRemley39 ( talk) 02:48, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Well, it is with the cavate that we should be careful about them. As they are sort of original research and it's much better if they are published in a journal where they get reviewed before being published. Although, I would be fine with it being used as an external link. Since the bar is kind of lower for them. As far as the biographies go, it's pretty irrelevant if I have read a lot of them or not (I have), because like you say in this particular case it would be an assumption either way anyway and AfDs are based on the facts, not personal assumptions of what a biography might contain because I've read some or whatever. That said, with the biographies I have read there wasn't usually in-depth details about other people in them. Except when the person that the biography was about had a close relationship to the person or at least was extremely important to their life (but even then really not). Which really isn't the case here. Since there's no indication Jonas Wendell and Charles Taze Russell were friends or had any kind of relationship what-so-ever, and all the article says is that attendance at Jonas Wendell's presentation "restored Charles Taze Russell's faith in the Bible." Which is a really vague and general statement, that doesn't actually connect the two in any meaningful way. Generally, I highly doubt there would be a long piece on someone who "restored" a persons faith in their biography. Honestly, I don't think it's very encyclopedic either. Plus, it's the defining of a passing mention. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 04:13, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Just so you know, theses and dissertations go through an academic review process called IRB and are typically published in Proquest and often elsewhere. DiamondRemley39 ( talk) 15:43, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Just so you know, not all IRBs are equal and the "reviews" they do are of varying quality. Which is why Wikipedia prefers thesis that are printed in peer reviewed journals. Also, not all thesis are published on ProQuest or "elsewhere." Obviously some are, but the one we are talking about here isn't. It was "published" on the website of Seventh-day Adventist university college's library that the person who write attended. Which isn't ProQuest or anything like it. Id imagine their IRB is on the lower end to. Sure, we could have a discussion about extremely general, mealy mouthed things that are not relevent to the AfD though like "things are printed in differented places" and "people review things." As if both aren't extremely obvious or like anyone here was arguing that those things weren't the case. Adamant1 ( talk) 23:07, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Comment BTW, I don't think that the sources provided by ToughPigs about his "arrest" should be included in this or the article. As the source about it says "No evidence of impropriety was ever produced." Wikipedia isn't a tabloid. I know that if you take that and the obituary stuff, which is pretty run of the mill, out of the article that nothing is really left though, but I still it's inappropriate to include it or use it for notability. Even there was a "cool nickname" attached to him being accused of crap. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 04:21, 24 September 2020 (UTC) reply
The Associated Press is not a tabloid; it is considered "generally reliable" according to the reliable sources list. Not sure what you mean about a nickname, but no matter. DiamondRemley39 ( talk) 00:32, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply
I'm not sure me saying Wikipedia isn't a tabloid equates to "The Associated Press is a tabloid," but whatever you say. Last time I checked WP:NOTNEWS doesn't discriminate on what source the "news" is coming from and I'm pretty sure someone being accused of something, which had zero evidence and never went anywhere (even according to the Wikipedia article), would qualify under the whole ""Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of persons and events" thing. Not to mention WP:SUSTAINED. I know certain people are a lot more lose with the guidelines then others though. As far as the nickname thing goes, ToughPigs said "the Wheeling Daily Intelligencer. The Pittsburgh Commercial has more information about the incident, which they call "the Edinboro Sensation"." 100% I would call a newspaper calling someone being accused of something, that again didn't go anywhere and that there was zero evidence of, the Edinboro "Sensation" rather sensationalist and tabloidlish. It would also be on Wikipedia's end to include it. Least of which because last I checked it's against covering accusations and people being arrested for things. Unless it's extremely notable and has sustained coverage. Which this wasn't and didn't have. Maybe you and ToughPigs are cool with Wikipedia including that kind of thing and using it for notability, but I'm not and I don't think Wikipedia is either. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 01:25, 25 September 2020 (UTC) reply

    • What sources are you seeing here that are reliable and would indicate notability? ★Trekker ( talk) 20:51, 5 September 2020 (UTC) reply
The Italian press seems to care, according to the BBC. E.g. the Italian edition of [Vice Media] and the Italian edition of Huffington Post. Does Greta even know this girl is her so-called nemesis? If I called myself the anti-Miley Cyrus would anyone care? A German reporter dissects it. I won’t try to mine the Polish language references because my Polish is See Spot Run rudimentary (apparently Jarvandi opines about Poland’s anti-refugee policy?). I’ve also seen things in French and Dutch. If her claim to fame is latching on to Greta’s, it’s working, I guess. I just find myself perplexed as to what exactly she’s mad about. Trillfendi ( talk) 19:23, 6 September 2020 (UTC) reply
To me the sources seem to be more about Greta, and the phenomenon of people who are upset at the attention she has recived. This girl (or her supporters) seem to be trying desperately to be noticed by association. Like I said above, I think its pretty telling that this Swedish girl has had essentially zero coverage in any Swedish news whatsoever, no one here has ever heard about her and her calim to fame is "7000 Twitter followers" yet tabloids in other countries seem to have tried to make a big deal out of it. ★Trekker ( talk) 20:14, 6 September 2020 (UTC) reply
I already mentioned they’re not fighting the same fight. They just happen to be born 3 days apart so naturally people want to extrapolate them. A newspaper would call this a “study in contrasts”. Greta’s fervor doesn’t grant notability to anybody but herself and her movement—not to Naomi Seibt either. (Nobody cares about trivium of her Twitter follower count and that sentence can easily be discarded.) It only adds to the irony of Jarvandi’s subject that her own country doesn’t pay much attention her, but others do as BBC referred to Il Fatto Quotidiano. And by Wikipedia’s standards, that’s good enough, unfortunately. Trillfendi ( talk) 16:44, 7 September 2020 (UTC) reply

She got a few interviews as a human-interest subject as a "front-line worker" during the COVID pandemic, but that by itself does not seem to make the subject notable. All the coverage is the same: "This image shows Lambertini exhausted due to Covid, Lambertini also has a child with cystic fibrosis". The coverage is from a span of two weeks and appears to originate as a fundraising promotion by the Cystic Fibrosis Research Foundation ("Margherita is the protagonist of a new fundraising campaign promoted by the Cystic Fibrosis Research Foundation, here is the info on the campaign and on how to donate." from the Vanity Fair Italy coverage) – Thjarkur (talk) 21:52, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

I'm not going to dignify the question with an answer, except to say if you have multiple in-depth reliable sources about the hospital under its old names feel free to provide them. That's what people usually do in AfDs instead of asking superfluous questions.
Sorry, I meant nothing bad by it. It's just when a hospital gets acquired by a network - the materials that made it notable or more verifiable were its origin history when it was perhaps more directly contributed with the community. I'm just speaking from personal experience from creating hospital articles. – The Grid ( talk) 23:59, 14 September 2020 (UTC) reply
No worries. I didn't think you did. I was just thinking you might have been able to find some sources have been sources I missed. I totally agree with you about it though. It seems like hospitals switch owners and names quit a lot. Which doesn't help with finding reliable sources about them.

  • Keep My goodness, this hospital is nearly three times the average size of an American hospital, and it's a Level 2 trauma center – the only trauma center in a three-county area – but we're just going to say that it doesn't "seem" notable and try to delete the article? Because nobody ever writes anything about large hospitals? Or maybe the nom thinks that hospitals in general aren't notable, since he's been regularly nominating articles about hospitals for deletion (very few of which close with deletion)? Hint: When we're talking about a modern community hospital in the developed world, and you can't find multiple, in-depth sources for it, then problem is in your search methods, not with the notability of the hospital. And for reference, a Critical Access Hospital in the US is fewer than 25 beds, and those are notable, too. WhatamIdoing ( talk) 01:04, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • P.S. I just added three sources to the article, including information about the original building and where the money went when this city-owned hospital was leased to a private organizations.

      • I mean, there is a basic premise underlining Wikipedia that people have to write about something for there to be an article about it. It is an encyclopedia after all. Not a business directory. Excuse me for not treating it like though. That aside, quite a lot of the articles I nominate get deleted and a lot of times when they don't its mostly because you, the ARS goons, and other people like you who think this is a phonebook and that there shouldn't be any inclusion criteria at all come along and steam role things by spouting nonsense and attacking nominators. Which isn't on me. Maybe I'd be more inclined to question my nomination record if they didn't involve so many utterly garbage keep rationales. I'm not really that about it though when most of the people who vote keep in the articles I nominate are doing so based on trash reasons like that I only nominated the article to target them because they edited it once 8 years ago. Considering things like that there's zero reason at this point that any of the people in your keep crowd should be taken seriously about anything. I don't see any of you criticizing your fellow keep voters who have legitimately less then less than stellar records either, nor do I because I think it's an extremely weak rhetorical method. That said though, I'd love to see you guys do it just for the sake of consistency. Get back to me when you've kicked everyone out of the Article Rescue Squad who has a less then 50% keep record (my delete record is way above that) or whatever. Then maybe I'll care about what you guys are saying. Until then though, I don't and I won't hold my breath about it. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 02:04, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply
        • Sure: people have to write something about for there to be an article. But journalists actually do write about hospitals, so that's not a problem. If you think that I'm one of the "ARS goons", then I'll point out that I substantially strengthened NCORP a few years ago.

Except they are, and that's why these nominations usually close as keep. — Toughpigs ( talk) 03:10, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply
No they aren't. You know what WP:NORG says about trivial coverage and it's completely ridiculous to claim a letter to the editor is a reliable source. No where does it say in any guideline that they are and there's rules about local sources. Including that using the same one a bunch of times like WhatamIdoing did here doesn't count as multiple sources. Anyway, most of "these" nominations don't get closed as keep. Just the ones you and the other people who seem to care less about the guidelines are involved in. Plenty of my nominations have resulted in delete though. It's just that you and the other inclusion at all cost people don't ever have any better arguments, let alone any guideline based ones, then to attack nominators. Even Catfurball who mainly edits Seventh-day Advantist articles and probably has a connection to them said this isn't notable enough to keep. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 03:20, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Hi Mohanabhil, just to point out, "founded by notable founders" is not a reason to keep - notability is not inherited. Also, "received extensive coverage" is vague at best. There are a number of references in the article, all based on statements/interviews with the founders and this fails WP:ORGIND as this is not considered "Independent Content".

Just FYI, this isn't a !vote counting exercise. If you believe a reference exists that meets the criteria, post the link here so others can comment.

These articles are about the theater company, not about the theater. A theater is just an otherwise empty building (and the Colony Theater hosts other arts, not just Miami New Drama). The significant coverage in these articles is about Miami New Drama, not about (or in a couple of cases not just about) the productions. Softlavender ( talk) 16:23, 20 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • Response Softlavender, nope. References must meet both the WP:CORPDEPTH *and* the WP:ORGIND sections of WP:NCORP (at the same time). There also isn't a need to provide 9 references (that's refbombing) as you could have simply posted what you consider to be the best 3 (especially as there's nothing new here - they're already all in the article). I'll comment briefly on each one below:
      • This from American Theatre is already in the article and you linked to it above twice in your list. I'll spend more time explaining why this reference fails the criteria for establishing notability. The article starts by saying how the theatre was only steps from a large BLM protest and then quotes the artistic director on the issue. There is zero in-depth information on the company other than one sentence which states Founded by playwright and director Hausmann and playwright/director Moisés Kaufman, Miami New Drama is a nonprofit professional theatre company committed to artistic excellence and groundbreaking work unique to the diverse city of Miami, with a vision of theatre as a powerful form of social engagement. You'll find minor variations of this sentence in hundreds of similar "articles" on this company. This is not in-depth information but a generic statement. The article then continues with a narrative switching between quotations from people involved with the company and then essentially framing the comment into the narritive. This is the epitome of churnalism and its essentially PR. This reference fails WP:NCORP for the lack of any in-depth details on the company and fails WP:ORGIND for the lack of any "Independent Content" on the company.
      • This from the Miami Herald is already in the article. It fails WP:CORPDEPTH, only mentions-in-passing. It fails WP:ORGIND as the information on the company has clearly been provided by the company.
      • This from Miama New Times is entirely based on an announcement by the City of Miami Beach (it says it in the article). Peppered with quotes from involved people, nothing original. Fails WP:ORGIND.
      • This from Broadway World is based on two pieces of news - the second is based on an announcement by the Knight Foundation although it isn't clear on where to attribute the news about staying in the same venue for the next 5 years. It's news but there's no attributed journalist (just "the newsdesk") but more importantly there is no Independent Content as per WP:ORGIND. It's the same formula of quotations and text framing the quotes into the narritive.
      • This from Times of Israel is based on an interview with a company executive and provides detail on his past and life journet. There is zero "Independent Content" concerning the company, fails WP:ORGIND
      • This from Theater Mania is entirely based on an interview, no "Independent Content", fails WP:ORGIND.
      • This second from American Theatre has zero in-depth information on the company (other than what plays are current and the obligatory quotation from the company executive), fails WP:CORPDEPTH
      • This from NBC News is mainly about the company executive and only mentions the company in passing with zero in-depth information. Fails both CORPDEPTH and ORGIND.
      • In my opinion, there's already plenty said about this company in the article on Michel Hausmann and it this company is not notable in its own right. Sure, it exists and is putting on great theatre, but if it was really notable, somebody other than local newspapers or news channels would have written about it.

If you prefer to disagree, fine, but this isn't a !vote counting exercise and the closing admin will weigh the arguments. So far, I've responded to every reference and rather than you pointing out which parts of the guidelines you think I'm misinterpreting, or why, you've resorted to name calling. Doesn't look great.

  • Keep I vote to keep this article on Wikipedia. I am a publisher on Brazilian Wikipedia and in fact the article does not exist on wikipedia in Portuguese, however, I noticed that there is a plot in Brazilian wikipedia to block the article and this same plot has been working to eliminate this page here on wikipedia in English. This editor who marked the elimination page is constantly blocked on the Portuguese wikipedia due to vandalism. Today, he did several vandalism actions on the pages of Anitta, Pabllo Vittar and other Brazilian artists, he is not a reliable editor. Regarding the relevance of the Brazilian award, I can say as a Brazilian, that the award is very important in the country. The event has already been featured in several major Brazilian portals such as Jornal Extra from the Globo group and Todateen of Uol magazine and several other portals, just search Google, outside the country, the award also has very expressive media coverage in several languages, having already been featured in vehicles with CNN, Yahoo, RTV 21, MSN, Telegrafi, Jawa Pos, Allkpop, among many others. The conspiracy charge is because this same group of Brazilian wikipedists came together to eliminate the page in Spanish, using false justifications. In the same Brazilian wikipedia, there are pages for awards such as Capricho Awards, Prêmio Contigo Online and Prêmio Quem Online, which are mere online polls and which receive coverage only in the vehicle that promotes them, differently from the BreakTudo Awards that today are really big in the country. I ask the attention of the wikipedists English natives for this fact this group of Brazilian wikipedists is acting, in Brazil they are the same ones that bar influencers like Leo Picon and Nah Cardoso. The award is publicized by several Brazilian artists and nothing that is not really relevant would get such coverage. It is clear that it is an act of vandalism and boycott, something that harms Brazilian artists, who struggle for recognition in the world of music. SHE Pabllo Vittar ( talk) 21:50, 7 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • First of all, the fact that the editor who nominated this article for deletion was blocked on pt.WP doesn't matter here. Second, your accusations against him are personal attacks which can result in sactions against you. I ask you to, either, prove your accusations with diffs or strike your remarks. Third, this article was deleted on pt.WP for the same reason they are being deleted him, because it's a brazen attempt to use the WP as means for promotion. Fourth, none of the refs on the article are reliable, indepent or cover the subject in depth. Fifth, there are no "plot" here. The only plot here is a company trying to use WP for propaganda.-- SirEdimon Dimmi!!! 22:54, 7 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Keep It is certainly a notorious award in Brazil. As mentioned above, there is a lot of coverage from many reliable and independent sources, I vote to keep this page on wikipedia. Raonyphillips ( talk) 02:29, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • I'm a Lusophone's sysop and CheckUser. I attest that the BreakTudo Awards theme was a constant target of puppets, abusing recreations disrespecting the community's decision. So I am not surprised to see new accounts being created to defend maintenance. About the award, this is more media than notorious. Therefore, there will obviously be numerous sources addressing the topic. In contrast, the overwhelming part of the sources comes down to rubbish from entertainment portals and many publish paid content. Another part of the sources are "lists" of nominees/winners or report a particular celebrity competing. These, by the way, cover more personality than the prize.
    A brief analysis of some of the sources cited here in the discussion:
    • Observatório de Música: it belongs to a "network" of entertainment sites, they publish advertisements and make "news" based on posts from Instagram and Twitter, as appears to be the case since it quotes a tweet.
    • Extra: blog hosted on the domain, passes content paid naturally.
    • Blastingnews: collaborative
    • TodaTeen: says that Manu Gavassi was nominated, talks more about the singer than about the award.
    • Click Paraná: advertising, see "Por Assessoria"
    • Blogue
    • Countless sources that only speak of the nominee
    • CNN: mention, reports that the group won the award and continues talking about the group.
    • Yahoo: collaborative base fan transfer.
  • Finally, there is no first-rate source in Brazilian journalism that supports any importance of the award. Examples: Folha SP, Estado de SP, G1, Gazeta and Zero Hora. The award is only mentioned in worthless entertainment portals. Some mentions there and here, some repercussions about nominees and winners... and is that significant coverage from reliable sources? Do not. It has already been eliminated in Portuguese, Spanish and Korean and everything is part of a "saga", according to the editor "SHE Pabllo Vittar". Honestly, you need to have a lower reasoning ability to discuss issues that already begin in this way. Edmond Dantès d'un message? 12:40, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

 Comment: There are reliable sources that mention this award. UOL's Observatório da Música , Globo's Extra and UOL's Toda Teen. Extra is a major news source, owned by the giant Globo. Toda Teen and Observatório da Música are maintained by UOL, a big news sources on the internet. I don't know if that should be enough to keep the article, and I don't know if they prove the award is notorious enough, so that's why I won't vote. But there are reliable sources that talk about it, no doubt. Mateussf ( talk) 21:37, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Keep The coverage from trusted sources is quite significant, and moreover the tabloids usually talk more about the artist than about the award itself, it is normal.

 Comment: On the 19th of this month I was editing the Maisa Silva page and there I ended up on the BreakTudo Awards page, I saw that it was marked for elimination by consensus and I decided to vote for keeping it. Since I believe this award is indeed notorious to be maintained in the project. I didn't get any message to cast my vote here, I'm sorry to be accused of that. I barely use Facebook, just for the record. My vote is not part of meat puppetry. A user above wants to maintain his point of view on the discussion saying that this is not notorious, I understand that he wants this, but making this type of accusation to me is very disrespectful.

The result was redirect to Minecraft. There is a lot of discussion here, but the general consensus is that the topic is relevant (though people differ by how much), and may be notable. However, there is more weight that independent notability has not been clearly demonstrated, so a redirect is merited. If there's content that's worth merging, it can be added from the history. I'd recommend putting a recreation through AFC if any user feels they can demonstrate stand alone notability in reliable sources. I would be happy to move this content to the draftspace/userspace upon request (though it isn't deleted, so anyone can do so on their own initiative).

Delete per WP:NOTGAMEGUIDE and failing WP:GNG. Largely sourced to game guide pages, and Redstone and its unique gameplay is already discussed in the main article for Minecraft. A standalone article WP:SPLIT does not appear to be necessary, as most of the additional information added in this article is just patch notes. ZXCVBNM ( TALK) 18:25, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Restore Redirect to Minecraft, which is what it existed as previously. There are some mentions of it in reliable sources that are not just game guides, as it is a major element of the game, but nothing that would justify needing it to be WP:SPLIT from the main article. Rorshacma ( talk) 18:42, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep — I think the article could definitely be improved and expanded to talk more about how "redstone engineering" has been used as a form of building working electronics completely within Minecraft. Paintspot Infez ( talk) 19:01, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - That concept is already discussed in the main Minecraft article under the "Education" heading, though. And like I said, I don't see that section needing to be Split off into its own article when it can be, and already is, easily discussed in the appropriate main article. Rorshacma ( talk) 19:07, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete (redirect) as a non-notable item in a video game failing WP:GNG with insufficient reliable independent in-depth sources, such as WP:VG/RS. The content about redstone creations is sourced but not specific to redstone itself and can be in the game's article as relevant and does not need a split. Otherwise, it's gamecruft. —   HELLKNOWZ   ▎ TALK 19:36, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
@ Hellknowz: Regarding your second point, if that is the case then you are suggesting a merge. In this case deletion is inappropriate as it will remove attribution of contributions. Polyamorph ( talk) 09:27, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
No, I am not suggesting a merge. Minecraft article already covers redstone creations with good sources. There are no sources and no content I consider worth merging here.

  • Keep (but revert to draft) - I agree with User:Paintspot, I think it is a significant portion of the game that could be worthy of it's own article over time, and I feel the Minecraft article is a little bloated with trying to approach all of Minecraft's huge scope of many different subcommunties (e.g. Redstone, Building) in addition to discussing the game itself. However, I can appreciate that keeping it in the mainspace for now may not be the best thing to do, so I suggest that it gets reverted to draft form. That way it can get improved upon over time and eventually, when it is encyclopedic enough (and hence passes WP:GNG) can be reaccepted into the mainspace.

The fact that there is a large community around redstone would be better placed at the Minecraft article, as that is a reception to the game itself, and doesn't need a non-notable split.   Nixinova    T    C   22:47, 21 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Even the three given newspaper sources separately contain valuable information about a considerable army school, one of two of the kind in the whole of Jammu & Kashmir. You may find it all insignificant, I don't, and we're not even only here for ourselves. I don't get why some people think we should hunt eight year old articles, even after they have been improved. Eissink ( talk) 12:40, 3 September 2020 (UTC). reply
  • Keep Per the existence of sources like [32], [33] and [34]. The standard for sourcing required of secondary schools has historically been low (due to the legacy WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES). While the majority of secondary schools in India are non-notable, this is one of the exceptions. This is a boarding school of note having a very selective entrance process. The sourcing available here is much more than what is typically available for an Indian school. If we delete this, we may as well delete 95% of all existing Indian school articles as they have lesser sourcing available than here.

  • Keep Agree with SD0001 that context is important in applying GNG. Most other 26 Sainik schools have similar or lower sourcing available. However this school with an annual budget of nearly Rs. 9 crores (approx 1.2 million USD) is notable (sources confirming this). Roller26 ( talk) 11:31, 10 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • We still judge articles on their own merits, not on their context. And yes, the school has a bduget, just like every other school in the world. So having a budget says nothing towards notability. The same with facilities. Ow, and interestingly, their own website-domain is expired... But it still fails WP:GNG and WP:NSCHOOL The Banner  talk 12:07, 10 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Context is important because India is a lower middle income country. Not all local and state level media have resources or need to maintain and update all their coverage on a proper website with index-able articles in non-English language. Even top media houses like Times of India routinely have expired links for couple of years old articles. Hence it's more than likely that significant coverage exists for such an institution in multiple local sources which are either not existing on web or at-least not easily Googlable. Having a significant budget (9 crore) for couple of hundred high school students shows the importance that Indian government gives to such an institute.

Keep - I respectfully disagree. Schwulst fulfills section 1 of WP:CREATIVE as she is widely cited by peers in the field of design education. See: Interactive Design Syllabus citing Schwulst Parsons - Syllabus citing Schwulst Syllabus citing Schwulst VCU Syllabus citing Schwulst CCA syllabus citing Schwulst -- Wil540 art ( talk) 02:31, 8 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Those links are to college syllabi in which she is thanked or acknowledged (alongside other people) for providing inspiration or precedents or guidance to fellow academics in the field. This is not the same as being "cited by peers". "Cited by peers" would be her work cited in a piece of academic research e.g. her research used as a basis for another piece of research, or a publication by her referred to in a footnote. Is there evidence of this peer citation? MurielMary ( talk) 04:23, 8 September 2020 (UTC) reply
Acknowledgement in a syllabi is the design education equivalent of being cited by peers. Your understanding privileges academic writings over teaching practices. -- Wil540 art ( talk) 22:44, 10 September 2020 (UTC) reply
It's not my personal understanding, it's the language of the Wikipedia policy/guideline. If you disagree with "cited by peers" as a criteria and want to broaden the criteria to include "acknowledged in a college syllabi" then that is something for you to take up in another forum. As the policy stands, being acknowledged by peers does not seem to meet the criteria of notability for an academic. Also note that the phrase in the policy is "widely cited by peers", so being acknowledged by peers within the same institution as oneself would not seem to meet this criteria either.

This article is overloaded with REFs far beyond the importance of its subject, some are repeated, and almost all are webcruft. Second, the article was created and has been nurtured by a SPA and, taken with the level of minutiae in the article, it appears to be either a vanity or a fanpage. Third, there's no convincing statement of notability in the lede...unless vague claims of being notable for "innovative teaching methods" and such and sourced by webpages is now acceptable. 2600:1700:8650:2C60:D822:97B:9540:37E ( talk) 18:14, 23 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Subject does not meet WP:N.
A Google search of her name turns up just 2,340 hits.
The text of the article appears to be copied directly from the artist's (self-penned?) bio at a site called "Picasso Mio" ( https://www.picassomio.com/zsuzsa-szikra.html )
The article is rife with weasel words such as claiming that her "...works are marked by their poetic abstract character" (whatever that might be), and utterly pointless claims like "During her childhood Zsuzsa spend her summer holidays with her grandmother on the shores of Lake Balaton in Hungary" and "Zsuzsa and her grandmother made long boat trips on the lake Balaton which made a lasting impression on Zsuzsa..."
The article reads like an advertisement.
The article is full of cruft, such as a list of "study trips" in which the subject visited the Hermitage and other museums.
There are no images of the artist's work.
Four "external links" are listed, three of which either have 404 errors or revert to the homepage, and the fourth has 4 sentences (in Hungarian).
Trying to determine which -- if any -- of the 34 provided reflist links are active, are relevant, or support WP:N would be a Herculean task.

Declined prod due to contestation on article's talk page. However that rationale was that he was associated with a few notable people, and his input at Gayhurst House. However notability is not inherited. He could warrant a mention on both the Everard Digby and Gayhurst articles, but there is no notability on his own.

1989 Portuguese Armed Forces order of battle

1989 Portuguese Armed Forces order of battle (  | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources:  Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

We have a whole bunch of articles on the order of battle per country (and sometimes per branch) in 1989. 1989 was more or less the end of the Cold War, but despite this, this articles all seem to have the same problem: a lack of notability. For example the Portuguese order of battle in 1989 has not been a separate subject of reliable sources, and is as such a random choice (a random intersection of characteristics) for an article, and no more or less notable than the 1988 or 1990 order of battle in Portugal.

  • Immediate keep: I propose to snowball close. The end of the Cold War in 1989 was a key event of the 20th century and the East-West confrontation with their massive military buildups began to unravel rapidly once the Berlin Wall fell. By 1990 every military had begun to downsize and Soviet Forces were moving out of Eastern Europe. 1989 was the end of Cold War. One of the big five years in military history of that century: 1914, 1918, 1939, 1945, 1989.

  • I'm having a hard time trying to justify a blanket keep for every different country.

Woody ( talk) 18:43, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep 1989 is one of the most important years of the Cold War, with 1989 marking the fall of the Berlin Wall (hence why Cold War historians use this number). It marks the peak of the armed forces of the Warsaw Pact and NATO, hence why this snapshot in time is so representative of their forces. I think it has sufficient notability to continue to exist. Garuda28 ( talk) 19:32, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Procedural keep These are notable articles based on the year and the composition of forces at that time. It is defining period in world history. An ambitious editor could create a list for such entries in relation to Warsaw Pact and NATO. I find the articles notable. Note: the problem with multiple items packaged as one, is we run the risk of deleting notable articles - so one reason I call for a procedural keep.

  • keep. 1989 was really the last year of the unprecedented military buildup of the 1980s, I for one have used these pages many times for use in wargames and writing as well as looking for historical sources within these pages. Also notable are the many force structure images showing individual divisional organizational charts, these are imperative for deducing a basic understanding of the late Cold War force structure. As for 1989 being no more notable than 1990 that is patently false. By the fall of the Berlin wall, many countries began to drastically reduce defense expenditures and shrink force postures. I truly hope the decision is made to keep all of these wikis. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Taco107 ( talk • contribs) 21:35, 15 September 2020 (UTC) — Taco107 ( talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. reply
  • Keep. Sourced orders of battle are notable. Buckshot06 (talk) 21:58, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Many sources refer to 1989 as being the endpoint for Cold War era militaries (due to the effective end of the Cold War, and the commencement of negotiations for the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe which also led to rapid cutbacks), and use that as the benchmark for earlier and subsequent structures. As such, sourcing and notability should both be fine. Nick-D ( talk) 04:23, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Perhaps someone, anyone, among all those keep votes could have provided a few sources to show that e.g. 1989 Portuguese Armed Forces order of battle is a notable subject, meeting the WP:GNG. Anyone? Anything? "Should be fine", "Used it many times", "I find the articles notable", ... all very well, but in the end not a reason to keep any of these articles or all of them unless you have something to back up these claims. Fram ( talk) 06:21, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Note how e.g. Structure of the Austrian Armed Forces in 1989 has been correctly tagged as being completely unsourced since 2016.

  • Keep. We should keep the Orbats, there is no reason to remove them - exactly the opposite, this is one of the rarer years for which near-complete lists of all country's Orbats exist.

    • Actually, there is a reason to delete them, just like for most AfDs: a lack of notability for the individual order of battle of Portugal, Switzerland, Belgium, ... in this year. It's one of the most basic dividing lines we have at enwiki; if there are no reliable, independent sources discussing the actual topic indepth, then we shouldn't have an article on it. That a lot of people find it useful or interesting is why Wikia was created. Fram ( talk) 06:49, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
      • No, there are lots of reliable independent sources discussing all these topics, in-depth. Your nomination of the Canadian article demonstrates how little you examined them: Noclador built that article from a detailed listing sourced from the recent Canadian defence review of the time.
      • To quote: "The article is based on the Canadian government's 1987 White Paper "A Defence Policy for Canada" (Link), which was published at the end of 1987. The White Paper served as basis for the overall structure and the equipment numbers. The article was then expanded with information from the Canadian Armed Forces Annual Historical Reports, which provided a complete listing of all units in existence in 1989."
      • Now, not all of them draw on official defence reviews, but just because, for example, the data has not been uploaded from the Bulgarian archives to make it accessible to English-speaking internet users does not mean that the article should be nominated for deletion. AfD is not cleanup. The sources exist - these are well functioning countries with great interest in the armed forces. They may not be in English, though.. Buckshot06 (talk) 11:23, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
        • Well, you start with "lots of reliable independent sources" (italics mine), and then give as example a prime example of a source which isn't independent at all, a white paper from the Canadian Government. So your rebuttal here is hardly convincing. Fram ( talk) 11:53, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
          • Whoops. Egg on my face. Should have read the phrase a little less angrily. No, whoops, no, not independent. What I mean to say is that these kind of incredibly detailed nationstate government listings are the most non-controversial kind of thing imaginable: they just about put you to sleep - that or the comparable Australian defence reviews which are of the same nature. Using this kind of non-independent sources are completely justified because they don't convey a particular political viewpoint - think about it - whether HQ 1 Canadian Brigade Group is in Vancouver or Calgary, and whether, thus, Headquarters Company, 1 Canadian Brigade Group, is in Vancouver or Calgary - does have any angle that can convey a political slant, diminishing reliability. On top of that, these kinds of unendingly boring lists are usually put out by governments within which we could attach citations to every particular unit. Would you rather have the Canadian article re-created by Noclador and I, but not with the single Canadian defence review source, but 950 footnotes from newspaper articles etc? Buckshot06 (talk) 12:08, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
            • No need for 950 footnotes and no need to remove such sources. They are perfectly reliable and useful once the notability of the subject has been established by independent sources. Not every fact, every detail, needs independent sourcing: using official sources for this is best practice (unless there is a reason to dispute or doubt them of course). Fram ( talk) 13:13, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
              • Those putative 950 newspaper, article, magazine, book-sourced, footnotes demonstrate the independent and reliable source coverage, thus, the subject is notable. If you want a single, specific, reliable, independent source that demonstrates the notability of this subject in this time period, see NATO Armies Today. Oxford: Osprey Publishing. 1987. {{ cite book}}: Cite uses deprecated parameter |authors= ( help), reprinted 1988 (copy available for perusal here). It includes this exact kind of listing of army units for most of these countries (though not air or WP). The official sources are the most accurate and we should base ourselves on them, but please, if you're happy with the putative other sources, such as Thomas & Volstad 1988, then just withdraw this time-wasting nomination. Buckshot06 (talk) 22:42, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
                • No, sources from prior to 1989 or from 1989 can not demonstrate that the 1989 OoB of these countries is particularly notable. What would be needed is sources from later showing how the 1989 Oobs were somehow special, as a group (so not a source about regiment X and another about Battalion Y, but a few about the importance of the 1989 Swiss OoB and so on. Fram ( talk) 06:26, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
                  • Where does it say 'independent, reliable, and of later date' when it talks about the GNG? You're now going well beyond our policy guidelines. Better to stick to what it actually says - independent and reliable. Your claim has no validity.
                  • But, if I treat your request for a later date's source as merely a polite request for information, that particular book in question that I just provided the reference for was reprinted. It was first published in 1987, then reprinted in 1988.
                  • Then it was reprinted three more times, in 1995, 1998, and 1999.
                  • So (a), we have provided you official sources, which are the most authoritative source, since it's their armed forces; (b) independent and reliable sources, demonstrating unquestioned WP:NOTABILITY; and, also, as a favour to you, I have in good faith provided the extra information that you would have found had you looked at the reference - yes there was continuing interest in those independent and reliable sources for many years afterwards.
                  • This nomination is frivolous, as demonstrated above, and has *no* policy-based relevance. Kindly withdraw it forthwith. Buckshot06 (talk) 10:08, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
                    • Nothing frivolous about it. The only reason to withdraw it would be to restart it for individual articles. Back to your point: a source from 1987 or 1988 can hardly be used as evidence that 1989 is such a special, noteworthy year. That the source is reprinted afterwards doesn't change this one bit. We need an independent, reliable source, written in or preferably after 1989, showing that the 1989 OoB are especially noteworthy. Your source doesn't do that, you source literally can't do that.
                    • In fact, your sources actually disproves the whole "Oh, 1989 is so important for the OoB" argument. If a source called "NATO Armies Today" can be published in 1987, and reprinted identically in 1995, 1998, and 1999, then where is the watershed of 1989, which makes this whole series of articles necessary? For your claims to be true and these articles to be necessary, the book you present as damning evidence for your cause should have become completely outdated by 1990 and would never have been reprinted as "Todays armies" by the late 1990s. You can't have your cake (1989 is important because everything changes) and eat it (this 1987 book being reprinted unchanged in 1998 and 1999 proves it!). Fram ( talk) 10:45, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
You are trying to argue that 1989 (well, the late 1980s, 1987, 1988) wasn't specifically important. I am saying the demand for information about NATO armies in the late 1980s was important enough that the book was reprinted, by popular demand, three more times!! There was no total change by 1990 - the force structure changes hardly started. And this was *well before* the internet; gathering information was much more difficult; a comparable book in 1984-85, Isby & Kamps, fell so far behind completing and updating that an extra author had to be brought on board.
Never mind. I have answered with a specific example, your request for an independent and reliable source focused on the late 1980s. This unquestionably demonstrates WP:NOTABILITY of the subject (though not perhaps the *exact* year 1989; I have my doubts on that, as I've said elsewhere here). I have in good faith also provided, in response to your request, detail saying it was done at a later date, wording not required or included in the policy. Then you've twice changed the terms of your requests to try and claim this book does not meet your extra request for information. I'm done. Buckshot06 (talk) 11:31, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
No, I asked for an independent and reliable source focused on 1989, not on "the late 1980s". You have not provided "detail saying it was done on a later date", you have given an exact reprint of an earlier source. That a book which is not about 1989, gets written before 1989 and reprinted unchanged long after 1989, is supposed to be proof of the notability of these 1989 articles, is simply not a convincing argument at all. Fram ( talk) 11:38, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. I am ambivalent about this nomination but there is a distinct lack of policy-based argument above, with most comments above being shades of WP:ILIKEIT or WP:VALINFO. What makes an order of battle for 1989 more notable than, say, 1945 or 1956? My understanding is that many of these armies were already significantly below their Cold War peak by 1989 which could be argued to be the least justifiable year for the entire the Cold War. And why do all countries in Europe need to have orders of battle for the same date? I wrote Belgian Army order of battle (1914) on the basis that there were plenty of sources which addressed the specific nature of the Belgian Army at the outbreak of World War I but I do not see the same source basis here. — Brigade Piron ( talk) 09:17, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • I agree that the focus on 1989 is sometimes taken to extreme levels. Noclador has unwisely tried to push the source limitations re the Army National Guard for 1989 when there is a single available source, Isby & Kamps, clearly laying out 1985 which could be substituted.
      • Most Cold War armies were at their peak in 1989. The Reagan build up of military forces went on throughout the 1980s. I.e. the Italian Army was at its strength peak between 1 December 1988 (activation of the Motorized Brigade "Sassari") and 1 April 1991 (disbanding of the Armored Brigade "Mameli"), the US Army was at its post-Vietnam peak between 16 April 1986 (activation of the 6th Infantry Division) and 15 September 1990 (inactivation of 2nd Brigade, 2nd Armored Division, followed two weeks later by the inactivation of 1st Brigade, 9th Infantry Division), the German Army grew its strength all through the 1980s reaching full Heeresstruktur 4 in 1990 (Heeresstruktur 4: expanded 2x Jäger divisions to Panzergrenadier divisions, expanded 2x Panzergrenadier divisions to Panzer divisions, and added 12x armored Heimatschutzbrigaden). Heeresstruktur 5 began the drawdown of forces in 1990, which resulted in 27 brigades being disbanded by 20 March 1993. So 1989 IS the peak for Cold War forces on both sides of the Iron Curtain (the drawdown was even more massive and speedily in the Warsaw Pact nations). noclador ( talk) 17:37, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Meh I think it's hard with a group nomination such as this, but I agree with Brigade Piron that there has been a lack of policy-based !voting. I took a look at Canada and found the following (broad coverage of the army in 1989): Maclean's article, NYTimes article, [44], Strike, Carol. 1989. “Profile of the Canadian Armed Forces” Canadian Social Trends. No. 15. Winter. Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 11-008XPE. p. 17-22., [45], [46], and a 1989 conference. There's more coverage in the same vein, which suggests that 1989 is a very significant year in the Canadian army. Various books use 1989 as a cut-off point, such as Imagining Nuclear War in the British Army, 1945-1989 and US Army Rangers 1989–2015: Panama to Afghanistan, again indicating that it is a particularly notable year militarily. Does that justify having these extensive listings of structures? I don't know. Best, Eddie891 Talk Work 11:45, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • Thanks. While various books indeed use 1989 as a cut-off point, others use e.g. 1991, like "American Military Police in Europe, 1945-1991: Unit Histories" [47] or "A Military History of the Cold War, 1962–1991" [48]... Some of your results seem rather irrelevant as well, e.g. in this one [49] the words "order of battle" don't appear together with 1989. Actually, when looking for "1989" and "order of battle" in books [50], it becomes quite clear that the results mostly deal with the order of battle in actual active wars, and not in the more theoretical sense of the "order of battle" in a stand-off situation like here. Fram ( talk) 12:04, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
      • The term "order of battle" means very little. What we are dealing with is a listing of every unit (or restricted to every combat units only) in a nationstate army or navy or air force, with their locations, in their correct command structure hierarchy, and sometimes with their equipment. Sometimes sources call that 'order of battle'; sometimes they call it 'structure'; sometimes they simply call it a 'list'. Now here on WP we often standardize terminology across different countries, and people who work on the same things will often use the same terms for multiple countries. And we work with the limitations of our language - I am not sure what such a list compiled in Bulgarian for Bulgaria would be titled, but it might not be 'order of battle.' None of that semantics changes anything about the notability of the material. Buckshot06 (talk) 12:14, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
        • I think Fram has a valid point and I think WP:INDISCRIMINATE is relevant. An order of battle by itself is unlikely to be notable, but can certainly form an important part of an article on a notable subject. I can quite understand the rationale of an article on the Swedish Army in the Cold War era (for example) which would address the size, composition, politics, equipment, and contemporary role of the Swedish Army in the Cold War era. The current order of battle in Structure of the Swedish Armed Forces in 1989 would be a valid part of such an article, but not an article in its own right. — Brigade Piron ( talk) 13:19, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Fram 1989 was the most defining year of the Cold War - you can read about it at Revolutions of 1989. In military terms, how momentous was this year: well, the Cold War era Polish People's Army was disbanded on 31 December 1989. That alone warrants an article about the Polish People's Army structure in 1989. Likewise the Nationale Volksarmee began to disband in January 1990 and was dissolved on 2 October 1990. The Pentagon announced on 29 January 1990 which divisions and brigades would disband in the post Cold war era. The Soviet Union began to return its Group of Soviet Forces in Germany on 1 June 1989, with three divisions gone by 12 October 1990. The Soviets began to leave Czechoslovakia in February 1990. East Germany took its forces out of the Warsaw Pact military structure in summer of 1990, Czechoslovakia, Poland and Hungary followed. And so on and on. 1989 is per se a notable year for everything. It's like 1939 or 1945 a key year of the 20th century. Demanding we prove for every single European country the notability of the events related to military matters in 1989 is not needed. As said 1989 is a key year of history, especially for military history of Europe and political history of Europe. Notability is given that in 1989 a 44-year long war ended and the militaries of the nations involved in that war are per se notable. noclador ( talk) 18:15, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. A sourced snapshot of a particular situation (military forces in Europe and the US) at a particular time is one area where WP excels as an online encyclopedia, free of the limitations of print. See WP:5P1. I really don't understand why some editors want WP to be less informative. RobDuch ( talk· contribs) 00:00, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • But these articles are hardly informative. The defense is that 1989 was ultra-special as the end of the Cold War, and that things changed rapidly and dramatically: but then we would need, want, expect an article about changes, not one showing a static snapshot. These articles learn me absolutely nothing about the supposed importance, the impact of the end of the Cold War. Structure of the Canadian Armed Forces in 1989 is a very long article which teaches me completely nada about the Cold War, the events of 1989, the impact these had on the Canadian Army, ... It's just a glorified database. Fram ( talk) 06:26, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
      • Fram Your comment above shows that you have a total lack of knowledge about these topics. These articles are highly informative and full of valuable knowledge, but one must be able to read them and understand them. The article you mention is not "just a glorified database", that's an ignorant and insulting comment. The article is a clear snapshot of how the Canadian military was organized at the end of the Cold War, and if you took some time to read it than this snapshot can show you how Canada planned to fight a war in Europe, how it planned to grow its army, where it expected to have to defend its own territory, where it expected to have to support NATO's maritime strategy, how it expected to contain Soviet nuclear subs, how it interacted with the US military, and and and. As you are unable to understand the information in these articles and therefore incapable to comprehend the value of these articles your AfD of all of them is an insult to the editors, who worked on them and use them repeatedly. If you want prose, there are 100s articles for that i.e. Military history of Canada, Canada in the Cold War, History of the Canadian Army, History of the Royal Canadian Navy, Canada in the Cold War, North American Aerospace Defense Command, Distant Early Warning Line, etc. etc. and so many more. Your above comment shows that you are not qualified to assess these articles and that you started this AfD out of ignorance and arrogance. I suggest you close this AfD immediately and stop wasting the time of qualified editors. noclador ( talk) 06:34, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • These AfDs should be split up. I agree mostly with Brigade Piron's comment. There should be a policy-based reason for keeping these articles, and so far few have really been provided that could apply to all of them. That said, the end of the Cold War year was an important time in history, and to delete all of these at once would be somewhat rash. These AfDs should be done individually, that way we can evaluate the sourcing for each one and see if the topic merits notability. For example, I can totally understand why a US order of battle from 1989 would matter, but I'm doubtful Portugal's is really of importance, seeing as its importance in the Cold War climaxed in the 1970s. - Indy beetle ( talk) 06:35, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • Comment: Indy beetle Portugal didn't "climaxed in the 1970s". Portugal's armed forces were part of NATO integrated command structure, providing one three-star maritime command (IBERLANT) and two two-star sea/land commands (ISCOMADEIRA and ISCOMAZORES), a key US Air Force REFORGER and Supply and maritime interdiction base (USAFORAZ) and providing 27 ships to SACLANT (and a reserve mechanized brigade to SACEUR). Besides only saying that the US order of battle matters ignores the Belgian, Dutch, British, Canadian and French divisions in Germany, whose presence there was THE defining aspect for the Cold War era for these countries. noclador ( talk) 17:40, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply
      • But do the sources prove that this was a "defining aspect" for Portugal's military? The current state of the article does not suggest so. If this were just an AfD for the Portuguese Order of Battle, I'd be inclined to delete. - Indy beetle ( talk) 02:15, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    • I'm always on the fence on what to do in cases like this. When I AfD just one article from a series of similar or related ones, I get questions about "why this one and not that one" or "you can't delete this one, it is part of a series". When I AfD them all, I get "we can't evaluate them all at once" or "but they aren't the same" (which, to be fair, is probably more the case here than in some other mass-AfDs I have done). I'll give it a bit more time, but it may indeed be best if I then withdraw this AfD and restart one for one country or section only. Fram ( talk) 07:18, 17 September 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Keep -- the media sources referenced in the article make him notable per GNG, and there is no carve-out for auxillary bishops in WP:NBISHOP. Moreover, it is irrational to delete the article as sometimes auxillaries get ordained. Wikimedia software automatically puts up a little warning against creating an article that has been previously deleted. This warning would be enough to scare away a decent chunk of so-called "content creator" type editors for good. If this article is deleted and he gets to be a regular bishop someday, I would not expect the article to be re-created.

  • Keep In the Catholic Church a bishop, is a bishop, is a bishop until he's the pope. They may function differently depending on where they are and what they do, but they are all form the same order and are responsible for episcopal leadership in the Church. In a Church council/synod they all get one vote regardless. I do want to correct a couple of assertions above: all bishops are ordained bishop and auxiliaries are real bishops. The diocesan bishop has the ultimate responsibility in the local church, but his auxiliaries are not less of a bishop than he is. Farragutful ( talk) 19:16, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per Roberto221, Farragutful and past outcomes. Auxiliary bishops in the Roman Catholic Church are typically administrators of a defined area, usually several counties such as the suburbs of a major city that is the see of a metropolitan (Archbishop). They are also honorary bishops in a defunct diocese, such as in the former Ottoman Empire. Finally, they all get one equal vote in synods. In this particular case, he would probably govern part of the 1,400 square miles for the purposes of running that area, confirming teenagers, etc., and is to be Titular Bishop of Abora by the Euphrates. If this were an Episcopal or Lutheran assistant bishop, I would probably agree to delete, but in the Roman Catholic Church they have both substantive jobs and are figureheads of ancient sees. Unlike in some Christian denominations, only a bishop can ordain other clerics and preside over Catholic confirmations. Bearian ( talk) 20:02, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per Roberto221. Not having responsibility for a diocese ≠ not notable. I can think of several auxiliaries (e.g. Robert Barron, Fulton J. Sheen, Joseph Ha) who are more notable than the Ordinaries of some residential dioceses. — Bloom6132 ( talk) 00:41, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: Bishops are simply managers. Some are good managers, others are bad managers. The Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse exposed many bishops as failing the community and failing to deal correctly with their staff, their employees, ordained to the order of presbyterate to directly assist bishops. Bishops avoided the Royal Commission, Archbishops stonewalled and one claimed that for the Royal Commission to pursue Bishops for failing to deal with criminals said, on record, "that would violate the primacy of conscience" of the criminal. Bishops are simply managers and they had to be dragged - all over the world, look at the fall of Theodore (no-longer-Cardinal) McCarrick, disgraced and returned to the lay state - kicking and screaming into bankruptcy and the courts over child sexual abuse. They can no longer hide from their duty to uphold criminal law, and protect the community. Just because they have ecclesiastical office does not mean they have any notability per se. WP:NBISHOP should be scrapped and Bishops should face GNG just like anyone else has to. Ante up, why should Bishops be something special when they ran from criminal law and protection of the community from paedophiles for so long?

Whiteguru's attack on bishops does not address the point that these are important ecclesiastical official.

The minimum number of international centuries to qualify as a list is set at 25, and has been since at least 2012. This is because a century is not a rare feat in cricket, so in order to establish something that does not WP:MIRROR ESPNcricinfo or CricketArchive, we have set 25 as a more notable benchmark for lists, otherwise we head toward WP:NOTSTATS territory.

  • Weak delete. While the page in its current form skirts close to qualifying for a G11 speedy, the assertion that he won "major (amateur) junior tournaments domestically, regionally, and worldwide" might benefit from elaboration. If references could be found to prove this, and the tournaments did indeed prove to be "major", then this might demonstrate notability per WP:SPORTSPERSON (A sportsperson is presumed to be notable if the person has actively participated in a major amateur ... competition ... and so is likely to have received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject.) However, even if notability could be claimed under this criterion, the page is such a blatant breach of WP:NOTLINKEDIN that it would probably still benefit from being nuked from space and started from scratch. ~dom Kaos~ ( talk) 13:27, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

I closed AfD1 as delete on 5 Feb 2017. Normally I would just list it for speedy as a recreation, except that it seems to have a complicated edit history past that date. I think as the consensus thought earlier, that the references are at best promotional interviews, and the attempts to defend the article by accusing us of prejudice against Indian source irrelevant-- newspapers in all countries, even ordinarily reliable ones, publish promotional interviews--the party notable in such cases is the press agent.

Faisal Farooqui along with other prominent startup founders have fought preserve open internet in India, and won against Facebook and Airtel (Big Telecom operator). There is lots of news coverage on this.

Faisal Farooqui runs India's biggest customer reviews website called Mouthshut.com and have taken head on to fight against some of the biggest companies in the world, who are trying to take his venture down or trying to whitewash negative reviews by customers about various brands and products. I suspect there is a big organized racket trying to discredit him and his initiatives.

Non-notable organization, fails WP:GNG and WP:NORG.

Detailed analysis of available sources

The first published mention of the organization anywhere is a 2007 news article in The Daily Star. [62] It is significant coverage in an independent, reliable source. It is straight news reporting, however, not a secondary source, as the reporter does not provide any "analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the facts, evidence, concepts, and ideas taken from primary sources" (the police press conference / perp walk).

The same day, the Hindustan Times references the online version of the DS article, tosses in some background information on other organizations, and generally gins up the story. For example, the original, where an arrestee confessed members used to fake their own kidnappings to extract money from their parents to fund the organization, gets spun into "those arrested confessed after interrogation that it was involved in kidnappings." It is significant coverage in an independent, reliable source. Their reinterpretation of the story arguably makes it a secondary source. However, the footnotes to the WP:GNG caution that multiple newspapers publishing the same story don't always constitute multiple works, "especially when the authors are relying on the same sources, and merely restating the same information." Although HT adds information, that information isn't about the organization.

One book contains one sentence about the organization. [63] That isn't significant coverage. I suspect their source is Wikipedia, which would also make it WP:CIRCULAR.

Since the 2007 article, the organization appears regularly in newspapers, on a list of 30 or so Islamic organizations suspected by Bangladeshi authorities of involvement in militancy ("There is a strong possibility that the organisations might get involved in militant activities anytime. So, we're closely watching their activities"). [64] [65] [66] Being mentioned on a long list is not significant coverage.

To summarize the sources visually according to WP:ORGCRIT:

Source Significant? Independent? Reliable? Secondary? Pass/Fail Notes
The Daily Star Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Red XN Red XN No analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis by the author
Hindustan Times Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Question? Not intellectually independent of The Daily Star (with respect to the organization)
Book Red XN Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Red XN One sentence
Various news stories Red XN Green tickY Green tickY Green tickY Red XN Brief mentions in a long list
Total qualifying sources 0-1
There must be multiple qualifying sources to meet the notability requirements

No clear merge or redirect target. The Hindustan Times says it's "a breakaway of the Harkat-ul-Jihad Islam (HUJI)", but it's unclear whether that's actually true. Their source (The Daily Star) says the organization is allegedly led by a founding member of HUJI, which isn't necessarily the same as being a splinter from it. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 03:07, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Semi-advertorialized article about a student radio station, referenced entirely to its own self-published content about itself rather than any external verification that it actually passes any of WP:NMEDIA's criteria for the notability of radio stations.

And here's Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rock, Missouri's more specific cousin. State Historical Society calls it "Sandstone Post Office", which really does seem to indicate no town. Not on the 1886 topo despite existing at that time. (Something to note: I've found a bit of a correlation between appearing on the 1886 topo and being an actual place for the Vernon and Cedar County places). 1939 topo includes places with the names "Sandstone School" and "Sandstone Cemetery", but no indication of a town by the name of Sandstone. By 1991, Sandstone appears on the topo, but with only two buildings there (it's east of the cemetery, but the school's disappeared by '91). Searches for notability-giving coverage brings up nothing, although the total genericness of the name doesn't help. Well, given that it doesn't show up on the topos until the year it gets entered into GNIS (90 years after it's heyday!), and the fact that it's referred to as a post office in historical sources, I'd say Sandstone fails GEOLAND and GNG.

  • I disagree with this assessment of the sources.
    1. [74] is a QA interview attached to an announcement of an upcoming concert, published by the Music Department of Norton's alma mater. While campus publications sometimes can be considered independent of students or alumni, byline-less press releases published by faculty departments are not.
    2. [75] is routine coverage by the Music Department
    3. [76] more routine coverage similar to #2
    4. [77] QA interview with no independent analysis
    5. [78] I think it would be a stretch to call this significant coverage, it's largely a softball interview with almost nothing other than quotes from Norton.
    6. [79] Not entirely sure what's going on here, the website appears to be a resume-site for one Elizabeth Baker. I don't think it's reliable
    7. [80] more coverage like #2 and #3. Slightly less routine, but not independent
    8. [81] QA interview
    9. [82] crowdsourced (read: unreliable) source, doesn't mention Norton
    10. [83] Quotes Norton but doesn't provide much independent coverage about him
    11. [84] Alumni publication that actually provides some coverage of Norton, best coverage so far
    12. [85] Independent, reliable coverage...of Honest Iago, that barely mentions Norton. It's not significant coverage of Norton
    13. [86] This link wouldn't open for me, but it appears to be another Honest Iago review at best
    14. [87] "Get to know a founder", not independent
    15. [88] Reads like a sponsored post, independence and significance of coverage are dubious
    16. [89] Reads like a press release
    17. [90] Listing by the record company that published one of Norton's works, not independent
    18. [91] Contains a piece by Norton, not about him
    All told, we've got one, maybe two independent pieces about Norton with borderline-significant coverage, and some ok coverage of one band that he was in that doesn't mention him much. I don't think this meets GNG. signed, Rosguill talk 20:10, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    Rosguill Thanks a lot for putting together all these links. Seeing them near one another surely gives a different picture. Some of the links are less independent that seemed to me the first time I looked at them. Some talked more about the band than I had initially assessed. However, we have to agree that he appears quite often here and there, and "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" WP:BASIC. QA interviews cannot be discarded, as it also contributes to establish the subjects notability. Why would you interview someone that is not notable? I agree with you that this interview [92] is not reliable, as the website owner has a reason to publish whatever ( WP:CONFLICT, I guess). But the others are fine. For completeness, I'd like to add the links [93] and [94].

    Anyway, now that I was forced to go over all these sources, I'm slightly leaning towards a delete because all sources fail one of the pillars "reliable", "independent" and "significant coverage", and they do not make me comfortable in saying that Norton is notable in the sense of WP:BIO "the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be worthy of notice" or [...] "remarkable" or "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded" within Wikipedia as a written account of that person's life. "Notable" in the sense of being famous or popular—although not irrelevant—is secondary". Best, Walwal20 talk ▾ contribs 00:07, 19 September 2020 (UTC) reply
    QA interviews don't provide us with any information other than what comes out of the subject's mouth; they're not usable for building an article except to contextualize or flesh out points already made by secondary sources. Sometimes QA pieces will open with a blurb about the subject, and that can be mined for writing an article, but in these examples I don't recall seeing much of that across the QA interviews. signed, Rosguill talk 00:31, 19 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete He's definitely not notable for his teaching and I see nothing that meets any criteria at WP:NCREATIVE. Being an "assistant music editor" for two TV shows and an unreleased film do not seem like enough to me. There are a lot of sources, but when I go through them I'm not seeing much in the way of significant coverage from sources that are both reliable and independent. Therefore, I'd say he fails to meet WP:GNG and so I find no notability criteria that he meets. Papaursa ( talk) 12:40, 19 September 2020 (UTC) reply

Seeking consensus. There is a fair amount of coverage in Boston-area publications such as WBUR and The Boston Globe, but a lot of it (e.g., [95]) seems like WP:ROUTINE announcements of festival lineups or similar. It is not clear to me that this festival has heft comparable to Sundance, Cannes, TIFF, etc.—especially since I don't see coverage in trade journals like the The Hollywood Reporter that would indicate industry prominence. But it might squeak by WP:NEVENT/ WP:GNG with some not insignificant local-ish coverage. AleatoryPonderings ( talk) 15:45, 31 August 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. I found 173 hits on Google news, and two on Google scholar. Most hits are announcements about what will be shown (remember newspapers are produced to be of use to their readers, and in general telling them what they could do is more useful than telling them what they could have done if only they had known). Nevertheless, there are enough stories about what did happen to meet the requirement for significant coverage.-- Toddy1 (talk) 07:46, 8 September 2020 (UTC) reply

The porn performer/model does not have significant coverage in reliable sources and therefore does not pass WP:BASIC in my view. The references in the article are niche porn industry outlets and a Google search found nothing better. The awards are not a sign of notability as the Porn Bio notability guideline was deprecated.

  • Delete. Lacks independent reliable source coverage to satisfy WP:BASIC or WP:ENT. Independent searches for reliable source coverage is are complicated by Google News and Book hits matching 4 other persons with the same name. Coverage found or the porn star seem to be limited to porn award rosters, press releases and trade press interviews. • Gene93k ( talk) 03:34, 15 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Weak delete With a stage name as common as Kristen Scott (that’s like Monica Hernandez for Latina women) you’d be hard pressed to find this specific one immediately. I’m not against industry-specific sources like AVN, because realistically, who else is going to interview a pornographic actor? You deal with a landmine in these kinds of articles. One minute you find out where they were born, the next you’re inadvertently watching an ad for cam girls. It’s not like the New York Times letting Stoya do op-eds.

  • As there are many actresses and celebrities with the same name, Google may not be able to show many results. She has received various awards and has also participated in award ceremonies. Her film and she have been formally recognized by the International Film Festival. In my opinion, the article is notable.-- SarojOffl ( talk) 05:26, 16 Sptember 2020 (UTC)
  • Porn awards don't confer notability on the recipient without independent reliable sources that attest to the significance of the win. The WP:PORNBIO secondary notability guideline was deprecated in 2019 for this exact reason. As for "International Film Festival," you will need to be more specific and, more important, name a reliable source. Both the festival's and the actress' names are too generic, and independent searches yield false positives for a mainstream actress with a similar name. • Gene93k ( talk) 11:47, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Additional comment: I see from your edits, that you are referring to the Queen Palm International Film Festival. Two problems: 1. That TheHollywoodTimes reference is an obvious refactored press release from the filmmakers. 2. Neither the film Teenage Lesbian nor the festival articles have independent reliable references to demonstrate notability per WP:NFILM and WP:ORG respectively. Starring in a porn industry award-winning porn film is a very weak claim even for WP:ENT. • Gene93k ( talk) 11:58, 16 September 2020 (UTC) reply
comment: what are the criteria of notability then? If it were only because of the AVN awards, she would be notable. Unless you are contesting the notability of the AVN Awards as whole. On the other hand, what else undisputed criteria can you adopt to state the notabily of a porn performer? -- SERGIO aka the Black Cat 14:25, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply
  • @ Blackcat: The consensus since 2019 is that porn awards by themselves, even AVN Hall of Fame, are not enough to establish notability. A porn performer can still be notable by meeting the General Notability Guideline/ WP:BASIC with significant coverage by reliable independent secondary sources. Interviews and press releases don't count as secondary. Most porn sources like Fleshbot don't count as reliable. Porn award rosters lack depth of coverage and generally lack reliable secondary source coverage that proves significance. A porn performer also may be notable by passing one the the secondary criteria of WP:NACTOR, if and only if independent reliable secondary sources can support the claims. In this case, porn award wins + low quality sources do not add up to notability. • Gene93k ( talk) 17:33, 18 September 2020 (UTC) reply
