A search of sources fails to find WP:SIGCOV beyond re-hashes of the same press releases about future expansion. IMO, fails WP:GNG, could be merged to Poarch Band of Creek Indians if need be but don't see the benefit since the information is largely unsourced and has not attracted coverage. >> Lil-unique1 ( talk) — 22:39, 31 July 2022 (UTC) reply

Comment - The OWA district was previously known as Park at OWA, and there is some significant coverage under this name. The Sun Herald published multiple news articles about the area in here, here, here, and these other articles, and al.com also covered it here, here, and in all of these other articles. The Pensacola News Journal also covered the opening of the Park at OWA here. I'm not going to !vote "keep" because the sourcing is pretty bad, and I do not have the time to improve it myself, but it's also clear that the article should not be deleted. – Epicgenius ( talk) 20:40, 17 August 2022 (UTC) reply

The result was keep. There was disagreement as to whether notability was met, and most users appeared to consider that it had. On balance, I believe there is a consensus for keep over any other outcome. If anyone disagrees with my close, please ping me on my talk page and I will undo the close and leave for an administrator.

  • Delete. I just don't see enough for GNG. The first two sources listed by pburka are not independent, number three listed by pburka is SIGCOV (so that's 1/2, as GNG requires multiple), but number four is just a brief mention (The only female participant, Lice Waqailiti from Fiji, has also hailed the positive impact of the course.). Then there's the sources listed by Das osmnezz: Fiji Sun is too short (Besides quotes, all content is Lice Waqaliti says the onus is on their squad members to prove their worth to be considered for the National Women’s football side ... The top Lautoka women’s team goal keeper and head coach was part of the 2007 Pacific Games National Women’s side which won a bronze medal ... Waqaliti who is originally from Vanua Levu added that discipline would be a vital factor. (and even if it was SIGCOV, all articles from the Sun only count as one source, so we're still at 1/2 for GNG)); Fiji Times only has one sentence that is not quotes on Waqailiti (Goalkeeper development officer Lice Waqaliti says the program was for both girls and boys.); the second Fiji Times article does not have enough on her to qualify (all non-quote content is FORMER Fiji women’s football rep Lice Waqaliti is training the Fiji team goalkeepers for the 2017 Pacific Mini Games which starts in Vanuatu next week ... Waqaliti has high hopes from the goalkeepers.); FBC News also appears too short to be SIGCOV (less than five sentences on her that are not quotes); and then the final source listed is another from FBC News, which says its source is the OFC, so not independent. I'm just not seeing enough for a GNG pass. BeanieFan11 ( talk) 22:40, 11 August 2022 (UTC) reply

I believe this article should be deleted as it is based on a single cited author's idea of "parascience". Additionally, the examples on this page provide little distinction over what is pseudoscience and "parascience", using examples such as Ufology next to Philosophy. I think the dilemmas of using scientific theory within other well established and regarded disciplines outside the natural sciences, such as social science, should be left as discussions on their methodology pages. Looking at Google Scholar, "parascience" as a term returns back a poor collection of sources, when searched on other databases such as Scopus it only returns 15 published articles where "parascience" is used as a pseudonym for pseudoscience, not a distinct conceptualisation as this page is presenting it.

In my opinion this is a very good and clear article as a counterpoint to pseudoscience. This article brings some nuance and states that certain sciences can also be seen as parascience rather than pseudoscience. But that is my opinion. I don't know what others think about this? S.

Barebones stub which merely recites that Faustin was a Haitian sprinter who competed in the 1972 Olympics. Faustin was not remotely competitive in his event, finishing with the slowest time among all competitors in the 400 metres (almost 8 seconds slower than the winning times) and failing to qualify for the quarterfinals let alone the semifinals or finals.

  • Delete I agree with the nominator, also there is mention of the "divine plane" on the Plane (esotericism) [2] article.

  • Redirect to Plane (esotericism)#Divine plane - I am not finding any sources that would justify a separate article on this topic, as the sources I am finding that do discuss it are not ones that would generally be considered to be reliable. But, while I agree with the nominator that the complete lack of any sourced content would prevent a Merge, the fact that the subject is already covered in its own section in the article on a broader topic means that a Redirect would be preferable over straight deletion.

  • Comment: It seems like there's a number of articles about Straight in some of the major Swedish newspapers, to be found in the Swedish media archive. I'll see if I can do something about this article in the next few days. / Julle ( talk) 22:50, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. (This deletion discussion has been noted at Wikipediocracy.) I'll look here again to see whether Julle found anything, but the best source I found was this interview article in the tabloid Aftonbladet, which mentions it and confirms that it was started by QX (without naming the latter); however, it's mostly about Destroyer and Andersson. This 2012 English article in Out also merely mentions Straight in the context of Destroyer. There was also an interview article in Vice in 2012, and there's recent coverage of Andersson's projected PhD dissertation and a scholarly article that has been pulled by the publisher, including this article in the Daily Telegraph, and the Aftonbladet article provides a smidgen of biographical info, but I do not find sufficient biographical coverage to agree with the opinion expressed at Wikipediocracy that he himself has achieved notability, so I cannot advocate creating a BLP to which to redirect this. (The red link in our article was originally a link to the Karl Andersson disambiguation page; judging by their username the creator, Swekarl, has a conflict of interest with this Karl Andersson, so the red link should not be presumed to suggest notability.) Yngvadottir ( talk) 23:28, 14 August 2022 (UTC) (Changed to Keep, see below) reply
    Yngvadottir: I've taken a (first?) stab at the article now. I don't think we should conflate it with Karl Andersson – the magazine was published for a few years, and he wasn't the only editor-in-chief throughout its life. I'm not sure I would advocate a re-direct to a BLP even if we had one. Anyway, I've found some articles in Svenska Dagbladet and Sydsvenskan (two of the major respected Swedish newspapers, SvD based in Stockholm and Sydsvenskan the dominating newspaper in southern Sweden) I think are far better sources than the ones listed in this AfD so far. They can be accessed through Retriever/Mediearkivet, but if one lacks access, I've described length and which role Straight plays in them below. / Julle ( talk) 16:05, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment so it was published for 3 years by QX [4]. Dagens Nyheter has a snippet describing its scope [5] and here it is confirmed that the print is, similar to QX, at 30 000 copies. While the coverage on Straight is lacking, a merger to the publisher could be argued, but we don't have an article on "QX förlag". I'm not sure that a translation of the svwp article would survive AfD since it relies heavily on QX.se as a source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Draken Bowser ( talk • contribs) 10:08, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Draken Bowser: Do you have access to Retriever/Mediearkivet? I've added a couple of significant articles as sources (as well as a few shorter ones). If not, I've tried to briefly explain why I think they show notability below, but if you've got access to Mediearkivet you can check them out yourself. / Julle ( talk) 15:59, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    No, I looked through kb.se, Aftonbladet, Expressen and DN. So I overlooked the coverage in SvD. Maybe I should apply for access after all... Draken Bowser ( talk) 17:04, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Yeah, the significant coverage is mainly in Svenska Dagbladet, who had a reporter who kept following the Swedish gay magazine scene in the late 90s and early 00s, and Sydsvenskan. I'd recommend applying for access – you can usually get a lot of things you can't get from kb.se if we're looking at the last 20–25 years. / Julle ( talk) 18:37, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. I have looked at the Swedish media archive, and I think there's enough here to meet our requirements. There are a whole bunch of shorter 300–400 word pieces, and I've used a couple of them as sources, but the best I think is the 900 word piece "Straight on! Karl Andersson tänker göra Sveriges kaxigaste bögtidning" in Svenska Dagbladet, focused entirely on Straight, from 29 October 1999, and "Tidningar utanför normen säljer", Sydsvenskan, 1750 words from 10 March 2001, where Straight is a significant part of the article. / Julle ( talk) 15:57, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Julle Can you please add links to your sources? I couldn't find the first one I tried. Doug Weller talk 16:18, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Doug Weller: As far as I can tell, they aren't available online in a linkable way – few Swedish newspaper articles from the 90s or very early 00s are. I've been able to access them through w:sv:Mediearkivet. I'd link to them if I could do so in any meaningful way, but unless you've got access to the Swedish newspaper archive I'd recommend treating them like you would do with print sources. / Julle ( talk) 16:22, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply

Fails WP:GEOLAND#1, WP:CORP, and WP:GNG. Name means literally "Tobacco research farm" according to machine translation. As such this is a business or other such WP:ORG, however nothing even close to a notability pass for a business or other organisation is present. GEOnet Names Server is an unreliable source. The Iranian census counts people according to a local reference point, in this case a farm/research centre, meaning that this is not a legally-recognised populated place as such. The co-ordinates provided in the article (the source of which is not known) point to a random field on the outskirts of Urmia.

Together with this article I am also nominating the following articles, all of which are Iranian "village" articles apparently created by Carlossuarez46, all of which include the words Mazraeh-ye, which apparently means "the farm of". These all appear to be potentially farms, often ones belonging to someone identified by name or to a numbered location, and as such are unlikely to be real villages. In some cases Carlossuarez46 appears to have realised that this is what they actually were and then redirected them to names that they made up by removing the "Mazraeh-ye" part of the name, but this hardly made things better. In a lot of cases, the articles have co-ordinates added to them apparently based on GEOnet Names Server data or GeoNames data, both of which are unreliable. WP:BEFORE sampling even of the more promising of these articles (e.g., Dashtok-e Olya, Yazd) failed to turn up any significant coverage needed for a WP:GNG pass or evidence of legal recognition such as is needed for a WP:GEOLAND#1 pass.

Complete list of 129 other Carlossuarez46 articles about "villages" with "Mazraeh-ye" in the name
* Mazraeh-ye Yek

* Mazraeh-ye Jonubi Rural District

* Mazraeh-ye Shomali Rural District


Bundling is justified per WP:BUNDLE as these are spam/hoax articles created by the same author according to the same template.

Now that I've got AWB approval I plan to template all the articles in the list, but it may take me a day or two to do it so please have patience.

PS- you might think that 130 articles is a lot, but please remember that Carlossuarez46 was creating these articles at a rate of up to 100 or more per day so in reality this is still only dealing with their articles at a fraction of the rate they were created at. Deletion has to keep pace with mass-creation, otherwise we are allowing mass-creators to establish a fait accompli. Similarly WP:BEFORE as to be proportionate to the original work that was done to confirm the notability of the article that was created, which in this case was zero, otherwise again we are simply permitting a fait-accompli.

  • Delete per WP:V we should not have an article on a subject unless we have third-party reliable sources about it, and the burden of proof is on those seeking to retain the content. The Iranian census is not a reliable source for the existence of these places, as explained by the nominator, and none of the ones I looked at cited any source other than the GEOnet Names Server (which is also unreliable for the existence of places).

  • Thanks LP, will strike those from the list. BTW - "Mazraeh-ye Jonubi" just means "Southern farm" and "Mazraeh-ye Shomali" means "Northern farm", but they are listed in the census (after a lot of looking) as Dehestans, though whether a Dehestan is not also just a creation of the Iranian census is an open question. A WP:Before of both of them turned up nothing, but that’s probably not a surprise given their generic names. FOARP ( talk) 07:00, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply

As part of cleaning up efforts to bring the article in line with our writing guide (prior version here), I've looked into this journal more closely and... I just can't find any indication of notability. It's not indexed in any selective databases, and there's no substantial coverage that I can find per WP:GNG.

Unless someone versed in philosophy can dispute that this is a key journal in the field, I think it's a keeper.

Considering that it was created less than a month ago, I think that it is too early for this movement to get its own page. It can be re-created when it gets more media coverage, and national attention, and when it certainly gets more notable around the public. Vacant0 ( talk) 09:47, 31 July 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep but needs substantial editing, primarily to turn it into a proper alphabetical list and get rid of all the flags. I'm entirely happy to include lists like this - the EPL is a serious cricket league, there are no verifiability issues and the use of lists of player is a fairly standard thing across cricket articles. Sure, it's not an official T20 league yet, but it's still played in by people who have often played in those sorts of league (or internationally) and is the highest level of T20 cricket in Nepal I think. Unless I'm missing something significant? I'm not about to edit this to improve it until I know it's kept btw. Blue Square Thing ( talk) 11:15, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply

I don't think we'll get into the stats, so NOTDB doesn't seem to apply. Partial groups of players are discussed at a range of sources: here, here, [6], here, here, here, here, here, here and so on. That sort of discussion - who's playing, when, for whom etc... - seems enough for me to say this is OK as a standalone list as the group or set have been discussed. Haven't they? Blue Square Thing ( talk) 16:26, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
The list is simply raw data with little prospect of being anything else, so NOTDB absolutely applies. Announcements of individual players and squads (relevant to one year only) provide the required coverage to (content in) support season articles, but not complete lists of players throughout history. wjemather please leave a message... 16:45, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete no need for a list of every player to have played in this comparatively minor competition. Just because lists exist for other larger T20 competitions such as List of Indian Premier League players, that doesn't mean that this list has to exist.

Non-notable. Article lacks any refs, and my BEFORE search lacks any RS meeting GNG. Apparently, it's so obscure, that no one rated it on BGG, where it also lacks refs.

    IMO mentioned 3 times isn't SIGCOV- it needs to have at least one quite lengthy paragraph. As it only is "mentioned", IMO the coverage of the first one is trivial. Besides, how long is the Panzerfaust #52 article (is it a capsule review)? I'm also unconvinced that this should be kept based on that [all] of the other wargames that Gygax worked on as part of the Wargaming with Miniatures Series have articles, saying others have articles isn't a great keep rationale IMO.

  • Comment The Guidon Games article contains no individual game discussions, just a list of games published. So merging information there would break the existing page format.

    Then you'd need to nominate the other game articles indexed at Guidon Games for deletion. Some of them, like Ironclad (game) contain less information than this article does. Others, mainly those involving Gygax, have more. Give that these articles are mostly short, it seems to me less content is lost if the information is shifted to the various main designers.

Looking back at this a day later, I do see what you mean about the review providing significant coverage of the characters. Personally I still feel a merge is warranted unless enough secondary sources can be found to go into more detail than already exists or would belong The Order of the Stick#Characters without relying on primary sources, whereas all that could be sourced from the above review is a sentence analogous to the last paragraph in the lead, and maybe one or two more sentences in the Roy and Xykon sections. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:38, 13 August 2022 (UTC) reply
Keep There is plenty of independent coverage of the characters on the Web. See discussion of Roy here. https://thecinnamonroll.co/2014/03/20/webcomic-review-the-order-of-the-stick/

They then covered Brandon vowing to make a comeback afterward ( here). He was the executive director of the Community Initiative in San Francisco ( here). The Dallas Voice did a profile on him here.

The result was keep. Aside from the fact that a substantial majority of discussion participants !voted to keep (leaving no possible interpretation of the outcome as a consensus to delete), there is certainly no question or assertion that this article is a hoax, or indeed that the subject of this article is not, in fact, one of the leading athletes in the history of his country. As a project, we must have some sensitivity to the fact that there will be subjects from minority groups in smaller countries for whom sources in English will be sparse or less accessible than for subjects in large English-speaking countries. I would encourage editors researching this article to look for transcripts or recordings of Tuvaluan radio broadcasts on the subject. BD2412 T 18:28, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply

    I think this was supposed to say WP:NATH #2: "Finished top 3 in any other major senior-level international competition (this includes prestigious small field meets, e.g., IAAF Diamond League/IAAF Golden League meets, less-prestigious large-scale meets, e.g., Asian Games, and any IAAF Gold Label Road Race that is not explicitly mentioned above)".

  • Delete per source assessment table. The single possible SIGCOV source is not sufficient to meet NSPORTS or GNG. If editors believe that sufficient sourcing can be found eventually, then perhaps Draftify; our policies and guidelines (particularly SPORTBASIC #5) do not allow article to be kept in mainspace if notability is not demonstrated. – dlthewave ☎ 03:42, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply
No, of course we are allowed to keep these articles: as mentioned above, WP:NSPORT says "failure to meet these criteria does not mean an article must be deleted". And WP:IAR says we are allowed to do anything (subject to certain restrictions, like BLP). Secondly, WP:SPORTCRIT #5 in fact requires (only) one reliable source with significant coverage present in the article, which is what we have here. So even if it's not sufficient to meet GNG, it is sufficient to meet NSPORT, which is all we need. St Anselm ( talk) 05:13, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply
Per WP:ROUGHCONSENSUS, guidelines such as WP:GNG can be suspended by IAR, but only in exceptional circumstances. What is your IAR argument, and what is it about these circumstances - that otherwise appear like a standard sports AfD - that makes them exceptional? BilledMammal ( talk) 05:50, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply
I wasn't making an IAR argument - I was responding to the claim that we're not allowed to keep certain articles. But now that you mention it, there is a fairly strong IAR case here, in that the subject is (perhaps borderline) notable in two areas: football and athletics. That's what puts him above run-of-the-mill sportspeople. (The other IAR argument would be a systemic bias one, that we should make sure small countries are represented, and if we were to keep any sportsperson from Tuvalu, this would be the one.) But as I said, I think he passes NSPORTS in athletics. St Anselm ( talk) 06:40, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply

If you think it needs additional references, please tag it appropriately rather than jumping straight to AfD." To which I would add that his notability is obvious within Tuvalu: an Olympian, national sprint record holder, and member of the country's national football team. He's arguably the most notable sportsperson from Tuvalu, all sports taken together. I find it... odd that when the nomination for deletion failed, the article was immediately nominated for deletion again. Aridd ( talk) 20:51, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply
"won bronze", "Olympian, national sprint record holder, and member of the country's national football team" are not valid criteria of notability. Avilich ( talk) 19:59, 9 August 2022 (UTC) reply
No, but "Finished top 3 in any other major senior-level international competition" is. The Oceania Area Championships in Athletics are a major senior-level competition, recognised by the IAAF as an Olympic qualifying event. He clearly and unambiguously meets the notability criteria as an athlete, independently of any football-stuff-- IdiotSavant ( talk) 22:16, 9 August 2022 (UTC) reply
That merely tells us that significant coverage is likely to exist, it doesn't establish notability. SIGCOV sources still need to be provided and at least one needs to be in the article. – dlthewave ☎ 02:32, 11 August 2022 (UTC) reply
"Individual events in these championships must contain either several heats or extended fields" is a criteria and both medals were won in events with less than eight entrants, ie no heats/qualification.

  • Two cents. There are thousands and thousands of Olympics stubs created in bygone days with absolutely zero SIGCOV. E.g., Labib Hasso, Somsak Thong-ar-ram, Habib Sayed, Dulamyn Amarsanaa, Sompop Svadanandana, Jeremías Stokes, Talita Baqlah. Rather than devoting hours of collective effort re-litigating close cases that actually have SIGCOV and were resolved as "Keep" just one week earlier, why not focus our attention on cleaning up the clearly non-notable Olympians who have no SIGCOV at all? Of course, everyone's entitled to spend their time as they wish, but wouldn't the latter accomplish a lot more good for the encyclopedia? Cbl62 ( talk) 15:29, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Fails GNG and BASIC due to absence of the required significant coverage in secondary sources; even the claim of significant coverage in one source is debatable.

  • Keep A number of things wrong with this table. Firstly, the bndestem article contains over 350 words, and is devoted to only two players, one of whom is Tinilau. This is definitely not "passing coverage". Secondly, for the last source (lc.nl), it's not just what's in the article, it's the entire "iPad and newspaper" episode mentioned in the article (which is certainly more than significant). Finally, this nomination comes just a week after a previous nomination on this same athlete, making this a clear violation of rule B5 in WP:AFD and Wikipedia:Renominating for deletion. 24.28.96.202 ( talk) 18:39, 17 August 2022 (UTC) reply

All of the OFC content is non-independent and doesn't even need to be assessed for the other parameters.

@ Sportsfan 1234: You may not have realised that your argument got rebutted above. St Anselm ( talk) 05:00, 20 August 2022 (UTC) reply
That claimed rebuttal was strongly rebutted several times. Passing NATH (presumably #2, not #3; if indeed he does - which is debatable given the regional nature of the Oceania championships at the time) is insufficient, since when the presumption that significant coverage is likely to exist is challenged, GNG must be shown to be met. That means multiple sources, not just a solitary weak source (and it's questionable whether that even contains the necessary coverage). All we have here is pieced together from bare results and statistics, because that is pretty much all that is in the sources. wjemather please leave a message... 07:38, 20 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - Tuvalu is a small country. Really small. Nevertheless, he is a significant sports figure as far as Tuvalu is concerned. Sure, the coverage may not be what we would like to see, but there is enough there to verify his accomplishments and existence. There are sources even if they are not particularly strong. Ultimately, weighing everything, I !vote Keep. This article is a net positive to WP (isn't that the test for admins?). If nothing else, I am IAR-ing because in an area (sports bios) where there are a lot of one-line articles with 10 pageviews all time for someone who appeared in one MLB game in 1995, I think this is the kind of article which we should be keeping, as opposed to deleting just for deletion's sake (or because the black-letter law says we can). Is this a diatribe? Yes, but I stand behind it. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 18:57, 22 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep: Aridd has shown above that Tinilau does in fact pass NATH, which means that SIGCOV likely exists. This article has been at AfD for a long time, and SIGCOV has not emerged. However, we do have this source, which does in fact count towards GNG. We also have a note above about Olympic Islands, an unconfirmed SIGCOV offline source. There is a strong possibility that this subject meets GNG from those two sources, which for someone from Tuvalu of all places would be enough for GNG. Combined with the NATH presumption of SIGCOV, I find it likely that this subject is in fact notable. NATH tells us that there is likely SIGCOV of this person, which is reinforced by the online source and potential for offline sources. Giving due consideration to his small home country of Tuvalu, I find it extremely likely that he is notable. House Blaster talk 00:09, 23 August 2022 (UTC) edited 07:20, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    That has been debunked. Tinilau DOES NOT pass NATH. Sportsfan 1234 ( talk) 01:26, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    I believe you are referring to your comment ("Individual events in these championships must contain either several heats or extended fields" is a criteria and both medals were won in events with less than eight entrants, ie no heats/qualification. Therefore Tinilau fails WP:NATH as well.") above. That qualifier is only present for NATH#1, but is not present for NATH#2, which is the criterion he meets. NATH#2 explicitly mentions that "prestigious small field meets" qualify for meeting that criterion (emphasis mine). House Blaster talk 01:45, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
NATH presumption of SIGCOV there's no such thing, in fact a recent RfC has done away with presumptions. Avilich ( talk) 04:37, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
That was poor phrasing on my part. I have struck and replaced it with wording that is closer to what I was trying to get at. House Blaster talk 07:20, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Firstly WP:N states a subject is notable if it meets WP:GNG or a subject specific guideline such as WP:NSPORT. WP:NATH is the athletics-specific part of WP:NSPORT. WP:NATH states that a subject is deemed notable if it meets any of the criteria listed. Criterion 2 is "Finished top 3 in any other major senior-level international competition (this includes prestigious small field meets...)" and it goes on to give some examples of "prestigious small field meets" including the Asian Games. The Oceana Games is the equivalent of the Asian games for the continent of Oceana. The Oceana Games are split into two regional divisions (East and West) with medals awarded in both. The subject finished in the top three of the East Oceana Games twice and therefore meets the notability criteria. Waggers TALK 08:58, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Subjects that meet NATH are not "deemed notable" or even "presumed notable"; following WP:NSPORTS2022, all NSPORT sub-SNGs offer only an indication that "significant coverage is likely to exist". When that is challenged at AFD, it needs to be demonstrated that significant coverage actually exists. wjemather please leave a message... 09:56, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. The speedy re-nomination of this article and the behavior within this discussion feels like WP:BLUDGEONING. The focus on removing virtually all articles about athletes from Oceania feels like WP:BIAS. The countries within Oceania are small, remote, mostly offline and not well understood by the bulk of English Wikipedia editors. The sources we have are at best a very week keep, so for the first time in my WP history, I'm invoking WP:IAR. This is possibly one of Oceania's and almost certainly Tuvalu's best known athletes.

  • Delete or redirect. Without some substantial sources, this fails WP:GNG. TTN ( talk) 19:11, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: Bill Buchanan has not received any meaningful coverage from reliable sources. The entire article is little more than a collection of plot-related information and original research. ― Susmuffin  Talk 11:54, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per all. Maintenance tags spell out long-standing concerns that it has no secondary sources per WP:SIGCOV. It is entirely plot which fails WP:NOT WP:PLOT. No sign of improvement. Jontesta ( talk) 18:57, 16 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment: Did anyone even try to research this fictional character? I grant that coverage appears to be minimal, but it certainly is not nonexistent:
  • Secrets of 24: The Unauthorized Guide to the Political & Moral Issues Behind TV's Most Riveting Drama has the chapter "CTU Director Bill Buchanan Speaks Out"
  • 24 and Philosophy: The World According to Jack has in its index for Bill Buchanan pages: 6, 14, 38, 46, 92, 97 (could be all plot, or a mix of plot and analysis)
  • Chicago Tribune has the article Death takes a familiar '24' figure
  • The Hollywood Reporter writes about the character in the article The 24 Greatest ’24’ Deaths, Ranked
  • 24 (from the television-criticism book series TV Milestones Series) has a few mentions of Bill Buchanan (again, could be all plot or a mix of plot and analysis)
  • Google Scholar shows articles about the TV show 24 with Bill Buchanan mentioned in them
Furthermore, nobody has even mentioned List of 24 characters as an alternative to a standalone article. I think there is sufficient content for at least an entry at the character-list article. With some grit and deeper research, it could possibly be standalone in the future. Erik ( talk |  contrib) ( ping me) 13:00, 17 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • The interview appears to be about the actor's experience with the show, not much to do with the character. The "Philosophy" one's preview looks to just be plot-related context. The rest seems to be the usual pop culture fluff these shows attract and other trivial mentions. Doesn't seem to meet GNG. I don't really such much point in retention of existing content, but delete or redirect are fine outcomes. TTN ( talk) 14:33, 17 August 2022 (UTC) reply
While I am no impressed with the sources found (mostly fail WP:SIGCOV), I'd be fine with the deletion alternative in the form of redirecting to List of 24 characters. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:50, 19 August 2022 (UTC) reply

Local restaurant in Finland. I see nothing stated in the article that would indicate why it is notable. It appears to be a direct translation of an Finnish WP article, without verification of the sources. One is a deadlink, and the other says the restaurant is currently closed - not reflected in the article. Does not meet WP:NORG, lack of in-depth independent coverage. MB 03:33, 7 August 2022 (UTC) reply

The last group is mostly shorter review style pieces, but I did find [19], [20] and [21] interesting: they appear to describe weird "culinaristic concerts" which combine music by various composers with thematically related foods.
In addition, I found some individual hits in books using Google Books, but these were mostly limited to passing mentions in architectural books and travel guides. The mentions in architectural books gives me a bit of pause w/r/t the possibility that there'd be more coverage in that domain, but I'm unable to locate anything meaningful. - Ljleppan ( talk) 08:04, 7 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete I've been searching around for a while on this but I didn't find anything to add to Ljleppan's post. Helsingin Sanomat's review is a great source, but that's where it all stops. Reading it thoroughly, Iltalehti's article basically consists of a one short 2-3 sentences paragraph of original content, then a summary of the Sanomat's review, then Tripadvisor ratings mention. Not a WP:SIGCOV for me. Ilta-Sanomat one appears like a large coverage but is mentioning only the happenings of the dinner Putin had, little about the restaurant itself ("The prices of the menus vary between around 40 euros and 75 euros" and that Saves has been the entrepreneur at Walhalla for 30 years).

This article should be deleted because it is about a military standard of little impact outside of military purchasing specifications. It has been tagged for notability for a couple of years with no improvements to suggest it has encyclopediac value here. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. There are military standards for everything armed forces buy, and few of them are notable outside of their baliwick.

Merger seems appropriate to me. Quite a lot of good content that's extensively sourced on "Environmental Governance in China" so I don't think we want to lose all that effort. But it is too much like an essay and the subject matter is duplicative of "Environmental policy in China." JArthur1984 ( talk) 22:31, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply
I took an initial attempt at merging some of the information into the environmental policy in China page. JArthur1984 ( talk) 22:59, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect As I discussed with JArthur1984, some of the text that was moved from this article to Environmental policy in China set off CopyPatrol, and not as mirrored Wikitext, but rather, text from a copyrighted source doi: 10.1080/09644010600562567 (many editors won't be able to access that article, but 180 words from it were copied to the Environmental Governance article at some point long ago). That doesn't bode well for additional texts in the article. I believe the article's name should redirect and any information taken from the article should be thoroughly cleansed before attempting any kind of merger.  Spintendo  07:09, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply

Comment - The OWA district was previously known as Park at OWA, and there is some significant coverage under this name.

Then there's the sources listed by Das osmnezz: Fiji Sun is too short (Besides quotes, all content is Lice Waqaliti says the onus is on their squad members to prove their worth to be considered for the National Women’s football side ... The top Lautoka women’s team goal keeper and head coach was part of the 2007 Pacific Games National Women’s side which won a bronze medal ... Waqaliti who is originally from Vanua Levu added that discipline would be a vital factor. (and even if it was SIGCOV, all articles from the Sun only count as one source, so we're still at 1/2 for GNG)); Fiji Times only has one sentence that is not quotes on Waqailiti (Goalkeeper development officer Lice Waqaliti says the program was for both girls and boys.); the second Fiji Times article does not have enough on her to qualify (all non-quote content is FORMER Fiji women’s football rep Lice Waqaliti is training the Fiji team goalkeepers for the 2017 Pacific Mini Games which starts in Vanuatu next week ... Waqaliti has high hopes from the goalkeepers.); FBC News also appears too short to be SIGCOV (less than five sentences on her that are not quotes); and then the final source listed is another from FBC News, which says its source is the OFC, so not independent.

I believe this article should be deleted as it is based on a single cited author's idea of "parascience". Additionally, the examples on this page provide little distinction over what is pseudoscience and "parascience", using examples such as Ufology next to Philosophy. I think the dilemmas of using scientific theory within other well established and regarded disciplines outside the natural sciences, such as social science, should be left as discussions on their methodology pages. Looking at Google Scholar, "parascience" as a term returns back a poor collection of sources, when searched on other databases such as Scopus it only returns 15 published articles where "parascience" is used as a pseudonym for pseudoscience, not a distinct conceptualisation as this page is presenting it.

In my opinion this is a very good and clear article as a counterpoint to pseudoscience. This article brings some nuance and states that certain sciences can also be seen as parascience rather than pseudoscience. But that is my opinion. I don't know what others think about this? S.

Barebones stub which merely recites that Faustin was a Haitian sprinter who competed in the 1972 Olympics. Faustin was not remotely competitive in his event, finishing with the slowest time among all competitors in the 400 metres (almost 8 seconds slower than the winning times) and failing to qualify for the quarterfinals let alone the semifinals or finals.

This page is a tiny stub and has been since creation in 2008. There are no sources whatsoever.

  • Redirect to Plane (esotericism)#Divine plane - I am not finding any sources that would justify a separate article on this topic, as the sources I am finding that do discuss it are not ones that would generally be considered to be reliable. But, while I agree with the nominator that the complete lack of any sourced content would prevent a Merge, the fact that the subject is already covered in its own section in the article on a broader topic means that a Redirect would be preferable over straight deletion.

  • Delete. (This deletion discussion has been noted at Wikipediocracy.) I'll look here again to see whether Julle found anything, but the best source I found was this interview article in the tabloid Aftonbladet, which mentions it and confirms that it was started by QX (without naming the latter); however, it's mostly about Destroyer and Andersson. This 2012 English article in Out also merely mentions Straight in the context of Destroyer. There was also an interview article in Vice in 2012, and there's recent coverage of Andersson's projected PhD dissertation and a scholarly article that has been pulled by the publisher, including this article in the Daily Telegraph, and the Aftonbladet article provides a smidgen of biographical info, but I do not find sufficient biographical coverage to agree with the opinion expressed at Wikipediocracy that he himself has achieved notability, so I cannot advocate creating a BLP to which to redirect this. (The red link in our article was originally a link to the Karl Andersson disambiguation page; judging by their username the creator, Swekarl, has a conflict of interest with this Karl Andersson, so the red link should not be presumed to suggest notability.) Yngvadottir ( talk) 23:28, 14 August 2022 (UTC) (Changed to Keep, see below) reply
    Yngvadottir: I've taken a (first?) stab at the article now. I don't think we should conflate it with Karl Andersson – the magazine was published for a few years, and he wasn't the only editor-in-chief throughout its life. I'm not sure I would advocate a re-direct to a BLP even if we had one. Anyway, I've found some articles in Svenska Dagbladet and Sydsvenskan (two of the major respected Swedish newspapers, SvD based in Stockholm and Sydsvenskan the dominating newspaper in southern Sweden) I think are far better sources than the ones listed in this AfD so far. They can be accessed through Retriever/Mediearkivet, but if one lacks access, I've described length and which role Straight plays in them below. / Julle ( talk) 16:05, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment so it was published for 3 years by QX [4]. Dagens Nyheter has a snippet describing its scope [5] and here it is confirmed that the print is, similar to QX, at 30 000 copies. While the coverage on Straight is lacking, a merger to the publisher could be argued, but we don't have an article on "QX förlag". I'm not sure that a translation of the svwp article would survive AfD since it relies heavily on QX.se as a source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Draken Bowser ( talk • contribs) 10:08, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Draken Bowser: Do you have access to Retriever/Mediearkivet? I've added a couple of significant articles as sources (as well as a few shorter ones). If not, I've tried to briefly explain why I think they show notability below, but if you've got access to Mediearkivet you can check them out yourself. / Julle ( talk) 15:59, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    No, I looked through kb.se, Aftonbladet, Expressen and DN. So I overlooked the coverage in SvD. Maybe I should apply for access after all... Draken Bowser ( talk) 17:04, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Yeah, the significant coverage is mainly in Svenska Dagbladet, who had a reporter who kept following the Swedish gay magazine scene in the late 90s and early 00s, and Sydsvenskan. I'd recommend applying for access – you can usually get a lot of things you can't get from kb.se if we're looking at the last 20–25 years. / Julle ( talk) 18:37, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. I have looked at the Swedish media archive, and I think there's enough here to meet our requirements. There are a whole bunch of shorter 300–400 word pieces, and I've used a couple of them as sources, but the best I think is the 900 word piece "Straight on! Karl Andersson tänker göra Sveriges kaxigaste bögtidning" in Svenska Dagbladet, focused entirely on Straight, from 29 October 1999, and "Tidningar utanför normen säljer", Sydsvenskan, 1750 words from 10 March 2001, where Straight is a significant part of the article. / Julle ( talk) 15:57, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Julle Can you please add links to your sources? I couldn't find the first one I tried. Doug Weller talk 16:18, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Doug Weller: As far as I can tell, they aren't available online in a linkable way – few Swedish newspaper articles from the 90s or very early 00s are. I've been able to access them through w:sv:Mediearkivet. I'd link to them if I could do so in any meaningful way, but unless you've got access to the Swedish newspaper archive I'd recommend treating them like you would do with print sources. / Julle ( talk) 16:22, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply

Fails WP:GEOLAND#1, WP:CORP, and WP:GNG. Name means literally "Tobacco research farm" according to machine translation. As such this is a business or other such WP:ORG, however nothing even close to a notability pass for a business or other organisation is present. GEOnet Names Server is an unreliable source. The Iranian census counts people according to a local reference point, in this case a farm/research centre, meaning that this is not a legally-recognised populated place as such. The co-ordinates provided in the article (the source of which is not known) point to a random field on the outskirts of Urmia.

Together with this article I am also nominating the following articles, all of which are Iranian "village" articles apparently created by Carlossuarez46, all of which include the words Mazraeh-ye, which apparently means "the farm of". These all appear to be potentially farms, often ones belonging to someone identified by name or to a numbered location, and as such are unlikely to be real villages. In some cases Carlossuarez46 appears to have realised that this is what they actually were and then redirected them to names that they made up by removing the "Mazraeh-ye" part of the name, but this hardly made things better. In a lot of cases, the articles have co-ordinates added to them apparently based on GEOnet Names Server data or GeoNames data, both of which are unreliable. WP:BEFORE sampling even of the more promising of these articles (e.g., Dashtok-e Olya, Yazd) failed to turn up any significant coverage needed for a WP:GNG pass or evidence of legal recognition such as is needed for a WP:GEOLAND#1 pass.

Complete list of 129 other Carlossuarez46 articles about "villages" with "Mazraeh-ye" in the name
* Mazraeh-ye Yek

* Mazraeh-ye Jonubi Rural District

* Mazraeh-ye Shomali Rural District


Bundling is justified per WP:BUNDLE as these are spam/hoax articles created by the same author according to the same template.

Now that I've got AWB approval I plan to template all the articles in the list, but it may take me a day or two to do it so please have patience.

PS- you might think that 130 articles is a lot, but please remember that Carlossuarez46 was creating these articles at a rate of up to 100 or more per day so in reality this is still only dealing with their articles at a fraction of the rate they were created at. Deletion has to keep pace with mass-creation, otherwise we are allowing mass-creators to establish a fait accompli. Similarly WP:BEFORE as to be proportionate to the original work that was done to confirm the notability of the article that was created, which in this case was zero, otherwise again we are simply permitting a fait-accompli.

  • Delete per WP:V we should not have an article on a subject unless we have third-party reliable sources about it, and the burden of proof is on those seeking to retain the content. The Iranian census is not a reliable source for the existence of these places, as explained by the nominator, and none of the ones I looked at cited any source other than the GEOnet Names Server (which is also unreliable for the existence of places).

  • Thanks LP, will strike those from the list. BTW - "Mazraeh-ye Jonubi" just means "Southern farm" and "Mazraeh-ye Shomali" means "Northern farm", but they are listed in the census (after a lot of looking) as Dehestans, though whether a Dehestan is not also just a creation of the Iranian census is an open question. A WP:Before of both of them turned up nothing, but that’s probably not a surprise given their generic names. FOARP ( talk) 07:00, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply

As part of cleaning up efforts to bring the article in line with our writing guide (prior version here), I've looked into this journal more closely and... I just can't find any indication of notability. It's not indexed in any selective databases, and there's no substantial coverage that I can find per WP:GNG.

Unless someone versed in philosophy can dispute that this is a key journal in the field, I think it's a keeper. Can someone identify some ( WP:LAWYERING) technicality for which the article should be deleted? Maybe (but probably not). But the wikipedia would be poorer for the effort if this were deleted.

    It's hardly "wikilawyering" to ask that article topics pass either the general notability guideline or a subject-specific guideline.

  • Note: This article, in its current form, does not amount to much more than an entry in a list of philosophy journals. The information it contains is readily available elsewhere, for example, here and here. The original version of the entry went beyond this trivial kind of information by including quotations from the journal itself, to illustrate its purpose and contribution to Irish higher education.

Serbia Centre is not notable as a movement at the moment, I'd say it fails WP:GNG considering little amount of information about the movement currently exists. Reliable sources regarding the movement exist, although they only cover two announcements that Zdravko Ponoš made regarding the movement (this can be seen at his own page).

I'm entirely happy to include lists like this - the EPL is a serious cricket league, there are no verifiability issues and the use of lists of player is a fairly standard thing across cricket articles. Sure, it's not an official T20 league yet, but it's still played in by people who have often played in those sorts of league (or internationally) and is the highest level of T20 cricket in Nepal I think.

I don't think we'll get into the stats, so NOTDB doesn't seem to apply. Partial groups of players are discussed at a range of sources: here, here, [6], here, here, here, here, here, here and so on.

Non-notable. Article lacks any refs, and my BEFORE search lacks any RS meeting GNG. Apparently, it's so obscure, that no one rated it on BGG, where it also lacks refs. As there're no refs, IMO this should be deleted. Possible PROD candidate, but BOZ, Piotrus, or Guinness323 frequently find older magazines covering niche, obscure games, so I'm taking to AfD instead.

All of the other wargames that Gygax worked on as part of the Wargaming with Miniatures Series have articles. Grubbiv ( talk) 05:40, 3 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    IMO mentioned 3 times isn't SIGCOV- it needs to have at least one quite lengthy paragraph. As it only is "mentioned", IMO the coverage of the first one is trivial. Besides, how long is the Panzerfaust #52 article (is it a capsule review)? I'm also unconvinced that this should be kept based on that [all] of the other wargames that Gygax worked on as part of the Wargaming with Miniatures Series have articles, saying others have articles isn't a great keep rationale IMO. Even if these are significant, could you please add the refs and transclude in talk page to show that they're long enough and are RS? VickKiang ( talk) 09:17, 3 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Comment The Guidon Games article contains no individual game discussions, just a list of games published. So merging information there would break the existing page format. Zocchi's page does contain discussion about individual games he designed, making that merge more consistent with the existing article. Intothat darkness 13:35, 7 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Guidon Games, merging information to Zocchi would be UNDUEWEIGHT, but it is possible that the Guidon Games article could be reformatted in the future to allow for some information on individual games to be present there. Devonian Wombat ( talk) 23:32, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Then you'd need to nominate the other game articles indexed at Guidon Games for deletion. Some of them, like Ironclad (game) contain less information than this article does. Others, mainly those involving Gygax, have more. Give that these articles are mostly short, it seems to me less content is lost if the information is shifted to the various main designers. Intothat darkness 16:46, 9 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Guidon Games as a WP:ATD, as is usually the case with non-notable products of certain publishers/companies ( Template:R from product name). VickKiang explained fairly well why merging is completely pointless, and no sources to be found anywhere I searched. A clear failure of WP:GNG, but should be of course preserved as a redirect as it clearly existed. Jovanmilic97 ( talk) 23:27, 13 August 2022 (UTC) reply

It does not appear that there is enough independent coverage of the characters themselves to provide notability for a separate article on the characters. The main article on the comic can provide coverage of the key characters. HenryCrun15 ( talk) 23:11, 6 August 2022 (UTC) reply

Maybe lesser sources, but Order Of The Stick: Degrees Of Good And Evil analyses characters and this review talks about their versions in The Order of the Stick Adventure Game: The Dungeon of Dorukan Mithoron ( talk) 16:33, 11 August 2022 (UTC) reply
I wouldn't say that review concentrates on the characters. It contains a brief list of them in one paragraph, and then another paragraph with one to two sentences of coverage each on the main hero and the main villain. The fist "lesser source" does not appear to be a reliable source, and the second one seems to be little more than a bunch of passing mentions. * Pppery * it has begun... 14:39, 12 August 2022 (UTC) reply
Looking back at this a day later, I do see what you mean about the review providing significant coverage of the characters. Personally I still feel a merge is warranted unless enough secondary sources can be found to go into more detail than already exists or would belong The Order of the Stick#Characters without relying on primary sources, whereas all that could be sourced from the above review is a sentence analogous to the last paragraph in the lead, and maybe one or two more sentences in the Roy and Xykon sections. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:38, 13 August 2022 (UTC) reply
Keep There is plenty of independent coverage of the characters on the Web. See discussion of Roy here. https://thecinnamonroll.co/2014/03/20/webcomic-review-the-order-of-the-stick/

The result was keep. Aside from the fact that a substantial majority of discussion participants !voted to keep (leaving no possible interpretation of the outcome as a consensus to delete), there is certainly no question or assertion that this article is a hoax, or indeed that the subject of this article is not, in fact, one of the leading athletes in the history of his country. As a project, we must have some sensitivity to the fact that there will be subjects from minority groups in smaller countries for whom sources in English will be sparse or less accessible than for subjects in large English-speaking countries.

    WP:NATH #3 is "Have won an individual gold medal at the IAAF World Junior Championships, or Youth World Championships." There's no record of the subject having done that. Waggers TALK 08:47, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    I think this was supposed to say WP:NATH #2: "Finished top 3 in any other major senior-level international competition (this includes prestigious small field meets, e.g., IAAF Diamond League/IAAF Golden League meets, less-prestigious large-scale meets, e.g., Asian Games, and any IAAF Gold Label Road Race that is not explicitly mentioned above)".

Pretty sure it's reliable - no reason why it wouldn't be. Is NSPORTS any different from GNG, in your opinion? It only makes sense if significant achievement + one source with significant coverage in the article is used as a proxy for GNG. St Anselm ( talk) 15:12, 7 August 2022 (UTC) reply
NSPORT says "Meeting this requirement [1 source] alone does not indicate notability" and "The topic-specific notability guidelines described on this page do not replace the general notability guideline", which I take to mean a requirement for multiple sources.

    • I find it interesting how when an article has no SIGCOV, you say "Delete - fails SPORTCRIT" – but when it meets SPORTCRIT but only has one piece of SIGCOV, you say "Delete - fails GNG".

  • Delete per source assessment table. The single possible SIGCOV source is not sufficient to meet NSPORTS or GNG. If editors believe that sufficient sourcing can be found eventually, then perhaps Draftify; our policies and guidelines (particularly SPORTBASIC #5) do not allow article to be kept in mainspace if notability is not demonstrated. – dlthewave ☎ 03:42, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply
No, of course we are allowed to keep these articles: as mentioned above, WP:NSPORT says "failure to meet these criteria does not mean an article must be deleted". And WP:IAR says we are allowed to do anything (subject to certain restrictions, like BLP). Secondly, WP:SPORTCRIT #5 in fact requires (only) one reliable source with significant coverage present in the article, which is what we have here. So even if it's not sufficient to meet GNG, it is sufficient to meet NSPORT, which is all we need. St Anselm ( talk) 05:13, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply
Per WP:ROUGHCONSENSUS, guidelines such as WP:GNG can be suspended by IAR, but only in exceptional circumstances. What is your IAR argument, and what is it about these circumstances - that otherwise appear like a standard sports AfD - that makes them exceptional? BilledMammal ( talk) 05:50, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply
I wasn't making an IAR argument - I was responding to the claim that we're not allowed to keep certain articles. But now that you mention it, there is a fairly strong IAR case here, in that the subject is (perhaps borderline) notable in two areas: football and athletics. That's what puts him above run-of-the-mill sportspeople. (The other IAR argument would be a systemic bias one, that we should make sure small countries are represented, and if we were to keep any sportsperson from Tuvalu, this would be the one.) But as I said, I think he passes NSPORTS in athletics. St Anselm ( talk) 06:40, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. As IdiotSavant said last time: "won bronze at the Oceania Athletics Championships, and so clearly meets WP:NATH criteria 1 or 2, depending on where you think the OAC ranks. If you think it needs additional references, please tag it appropriately rather than jumping straight to AfD." To which I would add that his notability is obvious within Tuvalu: an Olympian, national sprint record holder, and member of the country's national football team. He's arguably the most notable sportsperson from Tuvalu, all sports taken together. I find it... odd that when the nomination for deletion failed, the article was immediately nominated for deletion again. Aridd ( talk) 20:51, 8 August 2022 (UTC) reply
"won bronze", "Olympian, national sprint record holder, and member of the country's national football team" are not valid criteria of notability. Avilich ( talk) 19:59, 9 August 2022 (UTC) reply
No, but "Finished top 3 in any other major senior-level international competition" is. The Oceania Area Championships in Athletics are a major senior-level competition, recognised by the IAAF as an Olympic qualifying event. He clearly and unambiguously meets the notability criteria as an athlete, independently of any football-stuff-- IdiotSavant ( talk) 22:16, 9 August 2022 (UTC) reply
That merely tells us that significant coverage is likely to exist, it doesn't establish notability. SIGCOV sources still need to be provided and at least one needs to be in the article. – dlthewave ☎ 02:32, 11 August 2022 (UTC) reply
"Individual events in these championships must contain either several heats or extended fields" is a criteria and both medals were won in events with less than eight entrants, ie no heats/qualification.

  • Two cents. There are thousands and thousands of Olympics stubs created in bygone days with absolutely zero SIGCOV. E.g., Labib Hasso, Somsak Thong-ar-ram, Habib Sayed, Dulamyn Amarsanaa, Sompop Svadanandana, Jeremías Stokes, Talita Baqlah. Rather than devoting hours of collective effort re-litigating close cases that actually have SIGCOV and were resolved as "Keep" just one week earlier, why not focus our attention on cleaning up the clearly non-notable Olympians who have no SIGCOV at all? Of course, everyone's entitled to spend their time as they wish, but wouldn't the latter accomplish a lot more good for the encyclopedia? Cbl62 ( talk) 15:29, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Fails GNG and BASIC due to absence of the required significant coverage in secondary sources; even the claim of significant coverage in one source is debatable.

  • Keep A number of things wrong with this table. Firstly, the bndestem article contains over 350 words, and is devoted to only two players, one of whom is Tinilau. This is definitely not "passing coverage". Secondly, for the last source (lc.nl), it's not just what's in the article, it's the entire "iPad and newspaper" episode mentioned in the article (which is certainly more than significant). Finally, this nomination comes just a week after a previous nomination on this same athlete, making this a clear violation of rule B5 in WP:AFD and Wikipedia:Renominating for deletion. 24.28.96.202 ( talk) 18:39, 17 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    The Leeuwarder Courant article is about Foppe de Haan, who very briefly managed Tuvalu, and contains a passing anecdote about our subject here ditching football for athletics, so is not significant coverage. wjemather please leave a message... 07:38, 20 August 2022 (UTC) reply

All of the OFC content is non-independent and doesn't even need to be assessed for the other parameters.

@ Sportsfan 1234: You may not have realised that your argument got rebutted above. St Anselm ( talk) 05:00, 20 August 2022 (UTC) reply
That claimed rebuttal was strongly rebutted several times. Passing NATH (presumably #2, not #3; if indeed he does - which is debatable given the regional nature of the Oceania championships at the time) is insufficient, since when the presumption that significant coverage is likely to exist is challenged, GNG must be shown to be met. That means multiple sources, not just a solitary weak source (and it's questionable whether that even contains the necessary coverage). All we have here is pieced together from bare results and statistics, because that is pretty much all that is in the sources. wjemather please leave a message... 07:38, 20 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - Tuvalu is a small country. Really small. Nevertheless, he is a significant sports figure as far as Tuvalu is concerned. Sure, the coverage may not be what we would like to see, but there is enough there to verify his accomplishments and existence. There are sources even if they are not particularly strong. Ultimately, weighing everything, I !vote Keep. This article is a net positive to WP (isn't that the test for admins?). If nothing else, I am IAR-ing because in an area (sports bios) where there are a lot of one-line articles with 10 pageviews all time for someone who appeared in one MLB game in 1995, I think this is the kind of article which we should be keeping, as opposed to deleting just for deletion's sake (or because the black-letter law says we can). Is this a diatribe? Yes, but I stand behind it. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 18:57, 22 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep: Aridd has shown above that Tinilau does in fact pass NATH, which means that SIGCOV likely exists. This article has been at AfD for a long time, and SIGCOV has not emerged. However, we do have this source, which does in fact count towards GNG. We also have a note above about Olympic Islands, an unconfirmed SIGCOV offline source. There is a strong possibility that this subject meets GNG from those two sources, which for someone from Tuvalu of all places would be enough for GNG. Combined with the NATH presumption of SIGCOV, I find it likely that this subject is in fact notable. NATH tells us that there is likely SIGCOV of this person, which is reinforced by the online source and potential for offline sources. Giving due consideration to his small home country of Tuvalu, I find it extremely likely that he is notable. House Blaster talk 00:09, 23 August 2022 (UTC) edited 07:20, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    That has been debunked. Tinilau DOES NOT pass NATH. Sportsfan 1234 ( talk) 01:26, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    I believe you are referring to your comment ("Individual events in these championships must contain either several heats or extended fields" is a criteria and both medals were won in events with less than eight entrants, ie no heats/qualification. Therefore Tinilau fails WP:NATH as well.") above. That qualifier is only present for NATH#1, but is not present for NATH#2, which is the criterion he meets. NATH#2 explicitly mentions that "prestigious small field meets" qualify for meeting that criterion (emphasis mine). House Blaster talk 01:45, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply

That was poor phrasing on my part. I have struck and replaced it with wording that is closer to what I was trying to get at. House Blaster talk 07:20, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Firstly WP:N states a subject is notable if it meets WP:GNG or a subject specific guideline such as WP:NSPORT. WP:NATH is the athletics-specific part of WP:NSPORT. WP:NATH states that a subject is deemed notable if it meets any of the criteria listed. Criterion 2 is "Finished top 3 in any other major senior-level international competition (this includes prestigious small field meets...)" and it goes on to give some examples of "prestigious small field meets" including the Asian Games. The Oceana Games is the equivalent of the Asian games for the continent of Oceana. The Oceana Games are split into two regional divisions (East and West) with medals awarded in both. The subject finished in the top three of the East Oceana Games twice and therefore meets the notability criteria. Waggers TALK 08:58, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Subjects that meet NATH are not "deemed notable" or even "presumed notable"; following WP:NSPORTS2022, all NSPORT sub-SNGs offer only an indication that "significant coverage is likely to exist". When that is challenged at AFD, it needs to be demonstrated that significant coverage actually exists. wjemather please leave a message... 09:56, 23 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. The speedy re-nomination of this article and the behavior within this discussion feels like WP:BLUDGEONING. The focus on removing virtually all articles about athletes from Oceania feels like WP:BIAS. The countries within Oceania are small, remote, mostly offline and not well understood by the bulk of English Wikipedia editors. The sources we have are at best a very week keep, so for the first time in my WP history, I'm invoking WP:IAR. This is possibly one of Oceania's and almost certainly Tuvalu's best known athletes.

  • Keep Searching for "オキラニ ティニラウ" (his Japanese name) I find many more results in addition to what we already have, e.g. [8], [9], [10].

  • The Hollywood Reporter writes about the character in the article The 24 Greatest ’24’ Deaths, Ranked
  • 24 (from the television-criticism book series TV Milestones Series) has a few mentions of Bill Buchanan (again, could be all plot or a mix of plot and analysis)
  • Google Scholar shows articles about the TV show 24 with Bill Buchanan mentioned in them

The last group is mostly shorter review style pieces, but I did find [19], [20] and [21] interesting: they appear to describe weird "culinaristic concerts" which combine music by various composers with thematically related foods.
In addition, I found some individual hits in books using Google Books, but these were mostly limited to passing mentions in architectural books and travel guides.

This article should be deleted because it is about a military standard of little impact outside of military purchasing specifications. It has been tagged for notability for a couple of years with no improvements to suggest it has encyclopediac value here. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. There are military standards for everything armed forces buy, and few of them are notable outside of their baliwick. This standard is obscure outside of those working in manufacture of wire or in military purchasing. Wtshymanski ( talk) 02:46, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply

This has been unreferenced since 2010 and I'm unable to find reliable sources that discuss it in any significant way. ... discospinster talk 02:13, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete no reliable sources or indication of notability. Andre 🚐 03:15, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Comment it's a real thing, as my kids were playing it a decade ago. No idea how to find sources, if any exist. I suspect there may not be any found. Jclemens ( talk) 07:54, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply
    Yeah, that's a tough one, but if there's nothing in Wikipedia library, the real library, Google, Google Scholar, books you found in the attic.. we can't exactly write an article on memories and nostalgia :-) Andre 🚐 02:47, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete The total absence of any refs online makes this a potential PROD candidate, other than several very unreliable SPS that verify that it exists. IMHO. VickKiang ( talk) 08:14, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply

Essay-like piece that is duplicative of environmental policy in China. Amigao ( talk) 01:23, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply

Merger seems appropriate to me. Quite a lot of good content that's extensively sourced on "Environmental Governance in China" so I don't think we want to lose all that effort. But it is too much like an essay and the subject matter is duplicative of "Environmental policy in China." JArthur1984 ( talk) 22:31, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply
I took an initial attempt at merging some of the information into the environmental policy in China page. JArthur1984 ( talk) 22:59, 14 August 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect As I discussed with JArthur1984, some of the text that was moved from this article to Environmental policy in China set off CopyPatrol, and not as mirrored Wikitext, but rather, text from a copyrighted source doi: 10.1080/09644010600562567 (many editors won't be able to access that article, but 180 words from it were copied to the Environmental Governance article at some point long ago). That doesn't bode well for additional texts in the article. I believe the article's name should redirect and any information taken from the article should be thoroughly cleansed before attempting any kind of merger.  Spintendo  07:09, 15 August 2022 (UTC) reply
