I have carried out WP:BEFORE on this article about a Scottish orchestra and added two references to the article (previously unsourced, and tagged as such since 2009). Neither of them is from a reliable published source, however. This orchestra looks run-of-the-mill to me and I do not think it meets WP:NMUSIC or WP:GNG.

  • I was about to !vote to delete based on NPOV, as WP:ATD states If an article on a notable topic severely fails the verifiability or neutral point of view policies, it may be reduced to a stub, or completely deleted by consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for Deletion. But given that High King already found sources, I decided to improve the article with respect to it's current state instead. I removed unverifiable information from the article, added some verifiable information from the sources currently present, and generally cleaned up some NPOV issues. I think we can keep based on High King's sources. It would be good to add those into the article to improve it more, because at the moment, we have a really basic "company did money thing" stub right now with one borderline promotional quote that had previously been unattributed close paraphrasing. — siro χ o 03:12, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Largely subjective list with various WP:SYNTH issues. Much of the list is unsourced, and even looking at some of the other sources, I think it's hard to prescribe a political ideology to many films, or that it's "anti-communist", particularly with the breadth of the term "communist". Some of these are historical films that depicted particular communist regimes in a negative light, like The Killing Fields, The Lives of Others, while others are fiction that happen to use communist regimes as the villains, like From Russia with Love and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, but are not necessarily political films that oppose this ideology. I mean, The Death of Stalin was an incredible satire of Soviet leadership, but I wouldn't call it "anti-communist." This list does not have objective enough inclusion criteria to be appropriate for Wikipedia. Reywas92 Talk 22:18, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply

What’s more, in my view, this may even be a case of a list that can prove much clearer and less prone to endless debates than a category would be, because you can organize the films in sections and explain why the films are included.

  • Weak Delete - I don't doubt that there are anti-communist films that are notable enough for Wikipedia, but so far most of those I've checked seem to be included because they villainize the Soviet Union/Russia/Russians or are otherwise Cold War films. As happens every time something like this comes up, it gets thorny trying to separate communism from an example of its implementation, but for the sake of defining a film (what we're doing here), it doesn't seem like they should be conflated. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 02:27, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    This is a good point, and we actually already have a similar list that even provides context: Culture_during_the_Cold_War#Cinema. Maybe some of the items in Mushy Yank's sources can be added there. Those are decent sources but I'm still concerned about combining Cold War/Red Scare films with those about other countries or made in other eras. Reywas92 Talk 05:15, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete fails NLIST because the list is simply endless; conflates negative depictions of communism (eg Rambo II) with films that are ideologically anti-communist (eg Rio Bravo); SYNTH because none of the sources discuss the contents of the list as a group.

    It seems you have misinterpreted the YouTube channel and stories as fake or non-reliable as many other interviews have been used as citations or that I've at least seen. I think that in a completely realistic view, most of the things about a person are from their own perspective and what they say. Only exceptions are records or second hand views that also come from a person who isn't considered reliable as everything and everyone can see things from a different perspective. It seems unjust to remove the page I've created as the person/subject is the largest cannabis YouTuber and influencer there is. Some of the points you made are valid but I see that most things that you commented on are just opinions about the creator. Many pages on Wikipedia are cited from the persons own stories but it seems like something is wrong with the citations I made when others have much looser and un verified citations.

  • Delete Potentially WP:TOOSOON - though I'm inclined to agree that a single contributor interview does not confer enough notability.

WP:OR WP:SYNTH, full of generalisations and out-of-context quote mining of contradictory definitions. Already removed a lot of bogus sources that were nothing more than googling for a term and then citing whatever comes up, ignoring context, disregarding inconsistencies in an uncritical pursuit of confirming one's own beliefs. Most additions were done by now-blocked User:Madreterra (blocked for.... "persistent addition of unsourced content)". My prod was deprodded by Necrothesp, who thought it needs to go for a full AfD, so here it is. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 16:37, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Agree, WP:OR WP:SYNTH are both applicable to this article. Conceptually I can see how a wiki page on Northwestern Europe could be defensible and a great page, but in its current form this isn't close to that. Vote delete WilsonP NYC ( talk) 17:10, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
I think there is no solid conceptual ground either, because the term is only used sparingly, in wildly different contexts, and everyone defines it ad hoc, for the purposes of whatever story they want to tell, or whatever research they want to do, or whatever graph they want to show. There is no long-term commitment to "Northwestern Europe" as an enduring concept and analytical category in the sources that I checked, and therefore no commitment to defining it consistently. In other words: everyone makes it up as they go along, and this article is an arbitrary sample of people making definitions up as they go along. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 17:18, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
PS: My edit summaries may help explain just how random and SYNTH it all is. As I noted, most references are a URL which is literally someone typing in the words "northwestern europe is defined as" into Google Books, clicking on whatever looks cool, copypasting the URL into this page and then thinking they've "proven" something, disregarding contradictions and context. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 17:30, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete or redirect to Regions of Europe. Reviewing the sources, it seems some don't even use the term "Northwestern Europe", and in others they use a lowercase "northwestern Europe", using simple compass directions in a brief usage without defining a specific region. Perhaps Nordic race should have more relevant geographic discussion with those sources, but I agree that this article seems like synthesis because there's not much discussion of the region as a whole and how it may be consistently described. The ethnographic definitions seem like broad generalizations that are rarely consistent with geography. One can make directional references to any place with one's own definition, but without more established meaning than pointing out the obvious of what "northwest" and "europe" mean, or finding more in-depth and universal discussion, I don't see the need for this.

  • Keep, but improve. Looking at other Wiki articles, it appears to be quite specifically defined by the EU as a development region, in addition to its rather looser cultural definitions. So although it may be poorly sourced and written, my sense is that it definitely worth a topic as a geographical area tightly defined by a major international body and also, more loosely, but nonetheless meaningfully by historians, geographers and other specialists. Bermicourt ( talk) 21:22, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    it appears to be quite specifically defined by the EU as a development region What do you base that on? The European Union is not mentioned anywhere in the article. Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Norway, the UK (unfortunately), and Switzerland are not even in the EU. How is the EU supposed to define a set of countries a "development region" if it has no jurisdiction over half of them? Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 21:51, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    RE: [The development region] is not mentioned anywhere in the article. It is now. Guliolopez ( talk) 01:15, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    So "North-West Europe" is an interreg comprising "Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg, Switzerland, the Netherlands and parts of France and Germany." As I suspected this excludes Iceland, Faroe Islands, Norway, UK, but also Sweden and Denmark, and "parts of France and Germany", and also Switzerland. Completely different from the given definition and map. Starting to think this should be a DP if anything. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 06:34, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. And remove or cleanup the OR/SYNTH. Based on the sources returned in my own WP:BEFORE (some of which I've added to the article), it seems that the topic (the term) has notability and a breadth of coverage in geographic, history, military and other works. While, per the nom, the article has become a COATRACK for OR, SYNTH and editorial on ethnographic and genetic content (neither section being, to my read and per the notes in the nom, supported by the linked sources), those issues can be addressed without deletion. Guliolopez ( talk) 01:10, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I appreciate your improvements. As noted above, I'm starting to think this is going to become a list of definitions about different things rather than an article. But even if we were to make this a DP, I'm afraid all entries would fail WP:GNG.
    E.g. interreg#Strand B: transnational cooperation shows these are temporary programmes. Interreg North Sea Programme is the only one with a standalone article and I'm not sure it meets GNG either. If it does, and this NWE programme as well, then this whole article must be renamed and rescoped and purged to fit the interreg project, otherwise it is still a WP:COATRACK. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 06:49, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I've removed more SYNTHed and UNSOURCED stuff that were reductionist generalisations about religion and language families. Simplistic attempts to cast "Northwestern Europe" as "Germanic" and "Protestant" seem like ethnolinguistic pan-nationalist ideas, and are probably the reason why " Germanic-speaking Europe" and " White Anglo-Saxon Protestant" were included in the See also section. I had already removed the latter as being too tangentially connected, but we should probably be removing the former as well. Given that the purported region is home to millions of speakers of Romance, Uralic, Celtic, Turkic, Semitic and other non-Germanic language families, as well as being home to millions of Catholics, atheists/agnostics/humanists, Muslims, and other non-Protestants, such generalisations really don't pass the pub test.

  • Delete - An unnecessary WP:SPLIT that in no way has enough significant coverage in reliable sources to justify a stand alone article. The sources that aren't just listcruft/churnalism articles that are generally not considered valid for establishing notability are reviews and coverage of the game and series as a whole, which of course mention the setting as part of that coverage, but not to the extent that there is enough to support a separate article. And, on top of the sourcing problem, this is a clear example of WP:NOPAGE, where any kind of coverage or discussion of the game's setting would make far more sense on the main article for the game rather than split out. The castle (and its inverted counterpart) are already covered as part of the main Castlevania: Symphony of the Night article, and the reception section there even has some coverage of reviewers thoughts on the castle/inverted castle.

The rationale for deletion was "doubt that an individual game mechanic deserves its own article", which is incorrect, as there are countless articles on Wikipedia about individual game mechanics.

I guess that could fall unter WP:DEL-REASON #5, being a contentfork, but that only applies "unless a merger or redirect is appropriate". So I think the deletion process should not be used to lead a merge discussion, even though merge is one possible outcome. One can discuss if this is a case of WP:NOPAGE.

  • Why so? In the same way that notability isn't automatic/inherited, "lack of notability" isn't automatic/transferred/"contagious" either. One of those people, Richard Lambart, 2nd Earl of Cavan, seems to have been an MP for the Kilbeggan constituency, and so may meet WP:NPOL. For example. While Ford Lambart, 5th Earl of Cavan seems to have been a big deal in Masonic circles, and has been covered in works on that topic. Which might contribute to notability.

    I have to agree with Guliolopez here, there are some which meet WP:NPOL and each should be judged on its own merits.

WP:BLP of an entrepreneur, not properly referenced as passing notability criteria for businesspeople. The attempted notability claim here is an unreferenced list of various awards, but not every award that exists on earth is an automatic notability clincher -- the extent to which any award constitutes a notability claim depends on the notability of the award, meaning that the award itself also has to be able to pass GNG on reliable source coverage about the award as well.
But other than the bulletpointed award list, the only other content here is of the "he is a person who exists" variety, and that isn't referenced to GNG-worthy citations either: two of the four footnotes are duplicated repetition of his own self-published press release on two different press release distribution platforms, one is a short blurb on a WordPress blog, and one is a glancing namecheck of his existence in coverage about somebody else.

I don't think the idea of a list of B&B characters is inherently a bad idea. However, the overwhelming size of the list ( WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE) along with the lack of verification and reliable sources ( WP:V) for many of the characters listed is of concern to me. I think an ideal way of doing this type of list would be similar to how List of The Simpsons characters handles it, but to get there would require a massive undertaking. I think a better idea would be to just start from scratch per WP:TNT.

I'm not a Beavis and Butthead fan, but I agree with the nominator's rationale of TNT. There are so many characters listed that I sincerely doubt all of them need to be in this list.

  • Keep nothing weak about it: deletion is not a solution for articles that suck, that's what editing--including deletion of specific content within the article that is useless or inappropriate--is for. Deletion is for things where no article should exist OR in the exceptional case where editing cannot fix the problems. Neither of those applies here. Jclemens ( talk) 18:32, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Where to start with editing it though? In my opinion, any list would need to include recurring characters from the show at the minimum, but all of the added detail and the guest appearances to me seems an unnecessary addition, as well as all the exposition and WP:OR. I mean, it is a massive undertaking. I think we are talking about basically overhauling the entire article anyway regardless of if this gets kept.

    With the caveat I know SFA about Beavis & Butthead... Suggestion would be to pick a threshold for appearances (3 episodes? 5?) and slice off anyone who doesn't meet it (they can always be recovered from page history if someone argues they're significant). There's also a fair bit of OR in there, e.g. " A parody of fitness guru Tony Little (Take a Lap)" that arguably either needs citing or chopping. It's questionable whether "Dating Service Manager" for example is even really a character. There are a lot of quotes in there, a few of which just seem to be favourite gags of whoever wrote them.

History of Kansas at https://archive.org/details/historyofstateof00andr/page/402/mode/2up (page 403, reference already in article) describes Mount Pleasant as "the town site of Mount Pleasant, Mount Pleasant Township", which I think means the urbanized area of the township as distinct from the surrounding rural area. This is followed by brief biographies of residents, suggesting that considerable work went into that chapter, not just scanning maps looking for place names. I looked for the coordinates included in the article, 39°26'52.0"N 95°08'16.0"W. Google Maps shows several buildings (which apparently are all part of one farm) at the intersection of Rawlins Road and 222nd Road, but no Street View images or names of occupants.

Plot summary unnecessarily split from Black Canary where I suggest this should be merged as a SOFTDELETE option. As a stand-alone article, this fails WP:GNG. Primarily just fictional character biography and a list of media appearances. Reception consists of "IGN rated her its 81st-greatest all-time comic book hero. She was number 26 on Comics Buyer's Guide's "100 Sexiest Women in Comics" list." which just confirms this as niche WP:FANCRUFTy character with no real-world impact. Black Canary is probably notable (probably - the reception at that article is as bad as here), but we certainly don't need two subarticles about her comic variants.

  • Delete - Dinah Laurel Lance's origin story is very confusing, even with dedicated fans. The true Black Canary is Dinah Drake, a character developed in the 40's and a member of the Justice Society. The hero was revised in the 60's by giving her powers and enrolling her into the Justice League. But it was the same character. Not until the 80's that this supposed daughter and idiotic storyline of hers appeared, because she was "too old" to hold the mantle. Very ageist and sexist. I think the two articles covering Black Canary should be merged, because there is truly only one heroine. -- Irimia florin 11:03, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Merge to Black Canary - I have pretty much the exact same thoughts as I wrote on the concurrent AFD for Black Canary (Dinah Drake). This is a clear WP:NOPAGE situation where covering the entirety of the topic of "Black Canary" in a single article just works better than splitting it out into three different articles, as it provides needed context and removes confusing navigation.

It merits a discussion on whether the term is actually a relevant one, and if it is a separate topic rather than a complete overlap. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 06:33, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Speedy keep Hey there, i saw that you left a message on my talk page, thank you for that! I wrote the article as it was listed on the wikipedia red link, upon reading up about it i found some academic articles mentioning it.
Based on my brief interpretation of the 2 items, I believe that Therianthropy and Animorphism differ in how Animorphism is only used as a literary device and trope in fiction. However Therianthropy also contains psychiatric and psychological aspects which extends beyond the realm of fiction and can be seen in modern day as forms of hallucination or psychiatric disorders.
I've added more academic articles if you still require evidence of it's mention. But as User:Daranios mentioned, there are multiple mentions outside TVTrope. Therefore I too will dispute that this article warrants deletion on the basis of "violates WP:NOTNEO" as WP:NOTNEO mentions "To support an article about a particular term or concept, we must cite what reliable secondary sources say about the term or concept, not just sources that use the term (see use–mention distinction)."
Source 4 in the article reference: "Animorphism in the anthropocene: nonhuman personhood in activist art practice" mentions the word "Animorphism" 41 times in the whole journal entry, thus it does not simply "use the term" but stretches the usage of "animorphism" to philosophy.
As of now there are currently 6 other academic sources in the Animorphism article which discusses animorphism and make mention of it as a medium for furthering the hypothesis of their academic article. Intuivo ( talk) 07:16, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply
I am rather unsure what "nonhuman personhood" as described in the cited thesis has to do with transforming into animals. Although it may be a moot point, since WP:SCHOLARSHIP states that "Masters dissertations and theses are considered reliable only if they can be shown to have had significant scholarly influence", and I am uncertain if that one does.
There may be uses of the term in various places but my point stands that it seems to be a neologism that is totally unlisted in dictionaries, or the article conflates different and unrelated uses of the term that mean different things. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 08:55, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Indeed. Nonhuman personhood is the point I make below: older sources often seem to understand the term as related to animism and personification. There is a danger that sources are added uncritically to this page that equivocate on what is meant. The page must not equivocate on terms or else other deletion reasons will be cited (TNT in particular). Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk) 09:04, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep or redirect to therianthropy - but any redirect would have to be a "redirect with possibilities". The article could do with some attention, particularly to establish how it differs from therianthropy, but it is clear that the term is widely covered in a large array of secondary sources. Per Daranios' searches, the term is used widely, understood and appears to have an overlapping defintion with therianthropy, whilst not being a subset of it - and this particularly around the TV tropes mentioned by the nom. It is interesting that the word does not appear in the OED, nor other dictionaries I have checked. But dictionaries are, like Wikipedia, lagging indicators of the notability of a word. The fact it is used in literature and in academic contexts does suggest there is a subject here. I caveat my own remarks, however, with a recognition that in the literature where this term is being used, it is frequently used within quotes ("animorphism") suggesting the author is intending a neologism (see nom's concerns regarding WP:NOTNEO), or, and this particularly the cases more than 10 years old, it may not be used as per the description on this page. for instance Hartman (1999) defines the term to mean something much closer to personification (page 49). (c.f. animism) Despite this, I don't think the subject fails GNG, so the only real question for editors is to what extent that this is different from therianthropy, and to what extent that merits its own page.

  • Merge with therianthropy. Both articles seem to be about the same concept. "Animorphism is the ability of a character to transform into an animal" - "Therianthropy is the mythological ability or affliction of individuals to metamorphose into animals". Unless a source can be found that clarifies the distinction, I think this is a case of someone "reinventing" an obscure term, and coining a synonym.

  • Redirect or merge to therianthropy, as WP:REDUNDANTFORK. I would be open to changing my !vote if there was significant coverage talking about how these are different.

  • Redirect or merge to therianthropy, which is further developed and superior, but is currently missing a mention of "Animorphism".

  • Merge with therianthropy. I have struck my keep and moving to merge based on ensuing discussion and because of the relist. The topic is notable but no evidence has been presented to show it is significantly different from therianthropy to merit an article. The term can be mentioned in that article, and if any difference in focus of the terms can be shown, it could also be discussed there, without requiring its own article.

  • Merge to therianthropy: In view of the later arguments beyond the nomination, it seems to me there is significant overlap, so a merge seems best. I did find one source relating both terms after all, though it is a bit off-handidly and in a pop-culture context, in this Wired article. Judging from a user comment at goodreads.com, the audio book Wolves and Werewolves in History and Popular Culture seems to have something to say on those terms. I guess there is noone around who can/would like to look into that one? Daranios ( talk) 09:58, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Marge to therianthropy as per nearly all of the above. The term "animorphism" could benefit from being mentioned in the article as a neologism or an alternate name, but other than that, as people have said above, it's a situation where you have two articles on more or less the same topic.

  • Keep per Siroxo, and I do not think that a merge to Free Range Parenting is appropriate. The article is not great, but neither is it uninformative, misleading nor NN, and there is significant room to grow it. This is notable as a case in and of itself (or, technically, set of cases/themselves), not simply as an instance of FRP. For example, the actions of the local protective services may be as significant a case study as the purported neglect they so zealously and destructively pursued. The legal waffling of the various governments both adds notability and presents another dimension in which to enhance the article. It's sad that it has been left to languish, but that seems a poor reason to delete it. Cheers, Last1in ( talk) 01:31, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect - please see the very lengthy station-by-station analysis of stations on this line that I posted previously at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Silcox station. I spent hours researching this line. This location is a signpost in the middle of deep boreal forest. It’s many kilometers from any settlement. It serves the occasional hunter or trapper. Look at it on satellite imagery and you can see there was never anything there.

  • Strong Keep, meets GNG as detailed above (and hopefully below). As to character importance in Wikipedia's Batman collection, please note that Bane is the only villain to defeat Batman, and (Gasp! Holy hotcakes Batman!) that Bane killed Alfred! As for merge (another name for 'delete') also note List of Batman family enemies for a summary. My point of many Wikipedians running out of things to do may apply here, AfD should close down for most of the year, way too many daily nominations and way too many of them like this one. Randy Kryn ( talk) 15:48, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    We're not saying that Bane isn't notable, as he most certainly is. We're saying that this specific incarnation of Bane by himself is not. Whatever is covered here can easily be covered by Bane in other media. Pokelego999 ( talk) 01:46, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Wait, above you said There just isn't enough here to justify a separate article here. which means he's non-notable. If he's notable, there's enough for an article--that's the definition of notable. So which is it? Jclemens ( talk) 22:15, 20 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I feel there is some confusion going on here - this is not an AFD for Bane (DC Comics), this is an AFD for the specific version of Bane that only ever appeared in Batman & Robin (film). Rorshacma ( talk) 17:04, 21 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Bane, the character, is notable. Bane, from Batman & Robin, is not individually notable from the original Bane character. Bane is a character who is notable, but this incarnation has only appeared in one film and doesn't appear to be individually notable enough to warrant a separate article from the original character. I hope that makes sense, because I understand the confusion with the phrasing here. Pokelego999 ( talk) 21:22, 21 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to Bane in other media for now, though honestly, that page itself should be trimmed and merged back to the main Bane (DC Comics). There are no sources that actually show that the particular version that made the singular appearance in Batman and Robin passes the WP:GNG. Of the two sources already in the article that are being cited above as demonstrating notability, the NYT source appears to simply be a review of the movie as a whole, and the MSN article is nothing but a reposting of a ScreenRant article that, itself, is just summarizing an article posted on the official DC Comics website. Searches do not turn up any additional significant coverage in reliable sources that would indicate any kind of notability for this specific version of the character. This version is already included in the target list, and there really is not anything here that would need to be merged over. Rorshacma ( talk) 16:58, 21 August 2023 (UTC) reply

    Whether procedural or not, AfD really isn't the best forum for this type of merge discussion. AfDs are fixed-length, general discussions about whether an article should be deleted based on policies and guidelines, and if alternatives can be found. For the type of merge being proposed, if a discussion is needed, it should give chance for editors who have worked on the article to participate, often taking longer than an AFD, but sometimes being much quicker when consensus develops rapidly. There's also the option for a WP:BOLD merge, with the understanding that it might get reverted if there's disagreement and a discussion ends up being needed anyways. Honestly, for actual article editing, I prefer any of these "less procedural" options than AfD. — siro χ o 16:23, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • I was about to !vote to delete based on NPOV, as WP:ATD states If an article on a notable topic severely fails the verifiability or neutral point of view policies, it may be reduced to a stub, or completely deleted by consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for Deletion. But given that High King already found sources, I decided to improve the article with respect to it's current state instead. I removed unverifiable information from the article, added some verifiable information from the sources currently present, and generally cleaned up some NPOV issues. I think we can keep based on High King's sources. It would be good to add those into the article to improve it more, because at the moment, we have a really basic "company did money thing" stub right now with one borderline promotional quote that had previously been unattributed close paraphrasing. — siro χ o 03:12, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply

List of anti-communist films

Largely subjective list with various WP:SYNTH issues. Much of the list is unsourced, and even looking at some of the other sources, I think it's hard to prescribe a political ideology to many films, or that it's "anti-communist", particularly with the breadth of the term "communist". Some of these are historical films that depicted particular communist regimes in a negative light, like The Killing Fields, The Lives of Others, while others are fiction that happen to use communist regimes as the villains, like From Russia with Love and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, but are not necessarily political films that oppose this ideology. I mean, The Death of Stalin was an incredible satire of Soviet leadership, but I wouldn't call it "anti-communist." This list does not have objective enough inclusion criteria to be appropriate for Wikipedia. Reywas92 Talk 22:18, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply

What’s more, in my view, this may even be a case of a list that can prove much clearer and less prone to endless debates than a category would be, because you can organize the films in sections and explain why the films are included.

  • Weak Delete - I don't doubt that there are anti-communist films that are notable enough for Wikipedia, but so far most of those I've checked seem to be included because they villainize the Soviet Union/Russia/Russians or are otherwise Cold War films. As happens every time something like this comes up, it gets thorny trying to separate communism from an example of its implementation, but for the sake of defining a film (what we're doing here), it doesn't seem like they should be conflated. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 02:27, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    This is a good point, and we actually already have a similar list that even provides context: Culture_during_the_Cold_War#Cinema. Maybe some of the items in Mushy Yank's sources can be added there. Those are decent sources but I'm still concerned about combining Cold War/Red Scare films with those about other countries or made in other eras. Reywas92 Talk 05:15, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete fails NLIST because the list is simply endless; conflates negative depictions of communism (eg Rambo II) with films that are ideologically anti-communist (eg Rio Bravo); SYNTH because none of the sources discuss the contents of the list as a group.

    It seems you have misinterpreted the YouTube channel and stories as fake or non-reliable as many other interviews have been used as citations or that I've at least seen. I think that in a completely realistic view, most of the things about a person are from their own perspective and what they say. Only exceptions are records or second hand views that also come from a person who isn't considered reliable as everything and everyone can see things from a different perspective. It seems unjust to remove the page I've created as the person/subject is the largest cannabis YouTuber and influencer there is. Some of the points you made are valid but I see that most things that you commented on are just opinions about the creator. Many pages on Wikipedia are cited from the persons own stories but it seems like something is wrong with the citations I made when others have much looser and un verified citations.

WP:OR WP:SYNTH, full of generalisations and out-of-context quote mining of contradictory definitions. Already removed a lot of bogus sources that were nothing more than googling for a term and then citing whatever comes up, ignoring context, disregarding inconsistencies in an uncritical pursuit of confirming one's own beliefs. Most additions were done by now-blocked User:Madreterra (blocked for.... "persistent addition of unsourced content)". My prod was deprodded by Necrothesp, who thought it needs to go for a full AfD, so here it is. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 16:37, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Agree, WP:OR WP:SYNTH are both applicable to this article. Conceptually I can see how a wiki page on Northwestern Europe could be defensible and a great page, but in its current form this isn't close to that. Vote delete WilsonP NYC ( talk) 17:10, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
I think there is no solid conceptual ground either, because the term is only used sparingly, in wildly different contexts, and everyone defines it ad hoc, for the purposes of whatever story they want to tell, or whatever research they want to do, or whatever graph they want to show. There is no long-term commitment to "Northwestern Europe" as an enduring concept and analytical category in the sources that I checked, and therefore no commitment to defining it consistently. In other words: everyone makes it up as they go along, and this article is an arbitrary sample of people making definitions up as they go along. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 17:18, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
PS: My edit summaries may help explain just how random and SYNTH it all is. As I noted, most references are a URL which is literally someone typing in the words "northwestern europe is defined as" into Google Books, clicking on whatever looks cool, copypasting the URL into this page and then thinking they've "proven" something, disregarding contradictions and context. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 17:30, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete or redirect to Regions of Europe. Reviewing the sources, it seems some don't even use the term "Northwestern Europe", and in others they use a lowercase "northwestern Europe", using simple compass directions in a brief usage without defining a specific region. Perhaps Nordic race should have more relevant geographic discussion with those sources, but I agree that this article seems like synthesis because there's not much discussion of the region as a whole and how it may be consistently described. The ethnographic definitions seem like broad generalizations that are rarely consistent with geography. One can make directional references to any place with one's own definition, but without more established meaning than pointing out the obvious of what "northwest" and "europe" mean, or finding more in-depth and universal discussion, I don't see the need for this.

  • Keep, but improve. Looking at other Wiki articles, it appears to be quite specifically defined by the EU as a development region, in addition to its rather looser cultural definitions. So although it may be poorly sourced and written, my sense is that it definitely worth a topic as a geographical area tightly defined by a major international body and also, more loosely, but nonetheless meaningfully by historians, geographers and other specialists. Bermicourt ( talk) 21:22, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    it appears to be quite specifically defined by the EU as a development region What do you base that on? The European Union is not mentioned anywhere in the article. Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Norway, the UK (unfortunately), and Switzerland are not even in the EU. How is the EU supposed to define a set of countries a "development region" if it has no jurisdiction over half of them? Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 21:51, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    RE: [The development region] is not mentioned anywhere in the article. It is now. Guliolopez ( talk) 01:15, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    So "North-West Europe" is an interreg comprising "Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg, Switzerland, the Netherlands and parts of France and Germany." As I suspected this excludes Iceland, Faroe Islands, Norway, UK, but also Sweden and Denmark, and "parts of France and Germany", and also Switzerland. Completely different from the given definition and map. Starting to think this should be a DP if anything. Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 06:34, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. And remove or cleanup the OR/SYNTH. Based on the sources returned in my own WP:BEFORE (some of which I've added to the article), it seems that the topic (the term) has notability and a breadth of coverage in geographic, history, military and other works. While, per the nom, the article has become a COATRACK for OR, SYNTH and editorial on ethnographic and genetic content (neither section being, to my read and per the notes in the nom, supported by the linked sources), those issues can be addressed without deletion. Guliolopez ( talk) 01:10, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I appreciate your improvements. As noted above, I'm starting to think this is going to become a list of definitions about different things rather than an article. But even if we were to make this a DP, I'm afraid all entries would fail WP:GNG.
    E.g. interreg#Strand B: transnational cooperation shows these are temporary programmes. Interreg North Sea Programme is the only one with a standalone article and I'm not sure it meets GNG either. If it does, and this NWE programme as well, then this whole article must be renamed and rescoped and purged to fit the interreg project, otherwise it is still a WP:COATRACK. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw ( talk) 06:49, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I've removed more SYNTHed and UNSOURCED stuff that were reductionist generalisations about religion and language families. Simplistic attempts to cast "Northwestern Europe" as "Germanic" and "Protestant" seem like ethnolinguistic pan-nationalist ideas, and are probably the reason why " Germanic-speaking Europe" and " White Anglo-Saxon Protestant" were included in the See also section. I had already removed the latter as being too tangentially connected, but we should probably be removing the former as well. Given that the purported region is home to millions of speakers of Romance, Uralic, Celtic, Turkic, Semitic and other non-Germanic language families, as well as being home to millions of Catholics, atheists/agnostics/humanists, Muslims, and other non-Protestants, such generalisations really don't pass the pub test.

Here he is questioning whether we should keep the core in such cases. According to WP:NEXIST, we should. No concern here of WP:OR, WP:SYNTH, or WP:COATRACK beyond minor stuff that can be removed in simple cleanup. And WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP! The concept is out there, recognized, just not that frequently used in comparison to other subdivisions of Europe. gidonb ( talk) 13:59, 18 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - An unnecessary WP:SPLIT that in no way has enough significant coverage in reliable sources to justify a stand alone article. The sources that aren't just listcruft/churnalism articles that are generally not considered valid for establishing notability are reviews and coverage of the game and series as a whole, which of course mention the setting as part of that coverage, but not to the extent that there is enough to support a separate article. And, on top of the sourcing problem, this is a clear example of WP:NOPAGE, where any kind of coverage or discussion of the game's setting would make far more sense on the main article for the game rather than split out. The castle (and its inverted counterpart) are already covered as part of the main Castlevania: Symphony of the Night article, and the reception section there even has some coverage of reviewers thoughts on the castle/inverted castle. I suppose I would have no objection to Redirect, per WP:CHEAP, but I honestly don't see this title as a useful search term. Rorshacma ( talk) 17:42, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Well, as I mentioned, the castle's role in the plot, the existence of the inverted castle, the development of it, and reviewers thoughts on it, are already covered on the main SotN article, so I really don't think a merge would be necessary at this point. I suppose I have no strong objections if people feel there is something worth merging, but its leaving this as a standalone article is the possibility that I definitely do not agree with.

  • Speedy keep Per WP:SK #1 - the nominator failed to give intelligible grounds for content deletion. The rationale for deletion was "doubt that an individual game mechanic deserves its own article", which is incorrect, as there are countless articles on Wikipedia about individual game mechanics. It boils down to WP:WEDONTNEEDIT but without a real explanation why we don't. The AfD gives the false impression that articles about game mechanics are banned on Wikipedia. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 19:50, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Speedy Keep, this article passes GNG. The nominator's rationale that "a video game mechanic doesn't deserve its own article" is inherently flawed, given we have articles such as the Water Temple and Rainbow Road on Wikipedia. No rationale is given as to why this should be merged beyond this reasoning, and the article itself has significant reception to the point where its existence is justified. Pokelego999 ( talk) 01:43, 17 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Speedy keep; the sources found by Zxcvbnm prove this locations independent notability, and a game mechanic / setting can infact justify its own article, with No Russian and Dust II being perfect examples.

  • Speedy keep Notability is not the only reason to start a deletion discussion. But what would it be otherwise? I guess that could fall unter WP:DEL-REASON #5, being a contentfork, but that only applies "unless a merger or redirect is appropriate". So I think the deletion process should not be used to lead a merge discussion, even though merge is one possible outcome. One can discuss if this is a case of WP:NOPAGE. But I see little overlap in the current versions of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night , and we have two not-so-small stand-alone articles. So I think they should be kept separate.

Also, this official government link to a page about the park is sufficient to establish notability per the special requirements of "Notability (geographic features)". It's legal recognition by the government. It does not have to be independent of the government since this is a geographic article.

  • Why so? In the same way that notability isn't automatic/inherited, "lack of notability" isn't automatic/transferred/"contagious" either. One of those people, Richard Lambart, 2nd Earl of Cavan, seems to have been an MP for the Kilbeggan constituency, and so may meet WP:NPOL. For example. While Ford Lambart, 5th Earl of Cavan seems to have been a big deal in Masonic circles, and has been covered in works on that topic. Which might contribute to notability. There doesn't seem to be similar/other "claims to notability" in the case of the subject under discussion here. Guliolopez ( talk) 17:50, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I have to agree with Guliolopez here, there are some which meet WP:NPOL and each should be judged on its own merits. With that being said, I see plenty of poorly-sourced articles, and if after a rigorous WP:BEFORE on the part of the nominator they are seen as not compliant with the GNG, I could see them being nominated for deletion.

WP:BLP of an entrepreneur, not properly referenced as passing notability criteria for businesspeople. The attempted notability claim here is an unreferenced list of various awards, but not every award that exists on earth is an automatic notability clincher -- the extent to which any award constitutes a notability claim depends on the notability of the award, meaning that the award itself also has to be able to pass GNG on reliable source coverage about the award as well.
But other than the bulletpointed award list, the only other content here is of the "he is a person who exists" variety, and that isn't referenced to GNG-worthy citations either: two of the four footnotes are duplicated repetition of his own self-published press release on two different press release distribution platforms, one is a short blurb on a WordPress blog, and one is a glancing namecheck of his existence in coverage about somebody else.

I don't think the idea of a list of B&B characters is inherently a bad idea. However, the overwhelming size of the list ( WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE) along with the lack of verification and reliable sources ( WP:V) for many of the characters listed is of concern to me. I think an ideal way of doing this type of list would be similar to how List of The Simpsons characters handles it, but to get there would require a massive undertaking. I think a better idea would be to just start from scratch per WP:TNT.

    Where to start with editing it though?

    With the caveat I know SFA about Beavis & Butthead... Suggestion would be to pick a threshold for appearances (3 episodes? 5?) and slice off anyone who doesn't meet it (they can always be recovered from page history if someone argues they're significant). There's also a fair bit of OR in there, e.g. " A parody of fitness guru Tony Little (Take a Lap)" that arguably either needs citing or chopping. It's questionable whether "Dating Service Manager" for example is even really a character. There are a lot of quotes in there, a few of which just seem to be favourite gags of whoever wrote them.

History of Kansas at https://archive.org/details/historyofstateof00andr/page/402/mode/2up (page 403, reference already in article) describes Mount Pleasant as "the town site of Mount Pleasant, Mount Pleasant Township", which I think means the urbanized area of the township as distinct from the surrounding rural area. This is followed by brief biographies of residents, suggesting that considerable work went into that chapter, not just scanning maps looking for place names. I looked for the coordinates included in the article, 39°26'52.0"N 95°08'16.0"W. Google Maps shows several buildings (which apparently are all part of one farm) at the intersection of Rawlins Road and 222nd Road, but no Street View images or names of occupants.

Plot summary unnecessarily split from Black Canary where I suggest this should be merged as a SOFTDELETE option. As a stand-alone article, this fails WP:GNG. Primarily just fictional character biography and a list of media appearances. Reception consists of "IGN rated her its 81st-greatest all-time comic book hero. She was number 26 on Comics Buyer's Guide's "100 Sexiest Women in Comics" list." which just confirms this as niche WP:FANCRUFTy character with no real-world impact. Black Canary is probably notable (probably - the reception at that article is as bad as here), but we certainly don't need two subarticles about her comic variants.

  • Delete - Dinah Laurel Lance's origin story is very confusing, even with dedicated fans. The true Black Canary is Dinah Drake, a character developed in the 40's and a member of the Justice Society. The hero was revised in the 60's by giving her powers and enrolling her into the Justice League. But it was the same character. Not until the 80's that this supposed daughter and idiotic storyline of hers appeared, because she was "too old" to hold the mantle. Very ageist and sexist. I think the two articles covering Black Canary should be merged, because there is truly only one heroine. -- Irimia florin 11:03, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Merge to Black Canary - I have pretty much the exact same thoughts as I wrote on the concurrent AFD for Black Canary (Dinah Drake). This is a clear WP:NOPAGE situation where covering the entirety of the topic of "Black Canary" in a single article just works better than splitting it out into three different articles, as it provides needed context and removes confusing navigation.

Wikipedia already has a page for this at therianthropy. However, I am nominating this for AfD rather than simply redirecting it because I cannot find mention of this term in the slightest outside of a TVTropes page, meaning it violates WP:NOTNEO as likely just a neologism someone made up one day. It merits a discussion on whether the term is actually a relevant one, and if it is a separate topic rather than a complete overlap. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 06:33, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Speedy keep Hey there, i saw that you left a message on my talk page, thank you for that! I wrote the article as it was listed on the wikipedia red link, upon reading up about it i found some academic articles mentioning it.
Based on my brief interpretation of the 2 items, I believe that Therianthropy and Animorphism differ in how Animorphism is only used as a literary device and trope in fiction. However Therianthropy also contains psychiatric and psychological aspects which extends beyond the realm of fiction and can be seen in modern day as forms of hallucination or psychiatric disorders.
I've added more academic articles if you still require evidence of it's mention. But as User:Daranios mentioned, there are multiple mentions outside TVTrope. Therefore I too will dispute that this article warrants deletion on the basis of "violates WP:NOTNEO" as WP:NOTNEO mentions "To support an article about a particular term or concept, we must cite what reliable secondary sources say about the term or concept, not just sources that use the term (see use–mention distinction)."
Source 4 in the article reference: "Animorphism in the anthropocene: nonhuman personhood in activist art practice" mentions the word "Animorphism" 41 times in the whole journal entry, thus it does not simply "use the term" but stretches the usage of "animorphism" to philosophy.
As of now there are currently 6 other academic sources in the Animorphism article which discusses animorphism and make mention of it as a medium for furthering the hypothesis of their academic article. Intuivo ( talk) 07:16, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply
I am rather unsure what "nonhuman personhood" as described in the cited thesis has to do with transforming into animals. Although it may be a moot point, since WP:SCHOLARSHIP states that "Masters dissertations and theses are considered reliable only if they can be shown to have had significant scholarly influence", and I am uncertain if that one does.
There may be uses of the term in various places but my point stands that it seems to be a neologism that is totally unlisted in dictionaries, or the article conflates different and unrelated uses of the term that mean different things. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 08:55, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Indeed. Nonhuman personhood is the point I make below: older sources often seem to understand the term as related to animism and personification. There is a danger that sources are added uncritically to this page that equivocate on what is meant. The page must not equivocate on terms or else other deletion reasons will be cited (TNT in particular). Sirfurboy🏄 ( talk) 09:04, 9 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep or redirect to therianthropy - but any redirect would have to be a "redirect with possibilities". The article could do with some attention, particularly to establish how it differs from therianthropy, but it is clear that the term is widely covered in a large array of secondary sources. Per Daranios' searches, the term is used widely, understood and appears to have an overlapping defintion with therianthropy, whilst not being a subset of it - and this particularly around the TV tropes mentioned by the nom. It is interesting that the word does not appear in the OED, nor other dictionaries I have checked. But dictionaries are, like Wikipedia, lagging indicators of the notability of a word. The fact it is used in literature and in academic contexts does suggest there is a subject here. I caveat my own remarks, however, with a recognition that in the literature where this term is being used, it is frequently used within quotes ("animorphism") suggesting the author is intending a neologism (see nom's concerns regarding WP:NOTNEO), or, and this particularly the cases more than 10 years old, it may not be used as per the description on this page. for instance Hartman (1999) defines the term to mean something much closer to personification (page 49). (c.f. animism) Despite this, I don't think the subject fails GNG, so the only real question for editors is to what extent that this is different from therianthropy, and to what extent that merits its own page.

"Animorphism is the ability of a character to transform into an animal" - "Therianthropy is the mythological ability or affliction of individuals to metamorphose into animals".

For example, the actions of the local protective services may be as significant a case study as the purported neglect they so zealously and destructively pursued. The legal waffling of the various governments both adds notability and presents another dimension in which to enhance the article. It's sad that it has been left to languish, but that seems a poor reason to delete it. Cheers, Last1in ( talk) 01:31, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply

There seems to be no sufficient verifiable sources proving that this incident ever happened. The only source cited states that around 30 Kenyan soldiers were killed in a border skirmsh, that's it. Overall this article doesn't seem to meet WP:GNG standards. I've done a WP:BEFORE check and couldn't find anything conclusive.

There are no sources that actually show that the particular version that made the singular appearance in Batman and Robin passes the WP:GNG. Of the two sources already in the article that are being cited above as demonstrating notability, the NYT source appears to simply be a review of the movie as a whole, and the MSN article is nothing but a reposting of a ScreenRant article that, itself, is just summarizing an article posted on the official DC Comics website. Searches do not turn up any additional significant coverage in reliable sources that would indicate any kind of notability for this specific version of the character. This version is already included in the target list, and there really is not anything here that would need to be merged over. Rorshacma ( talk) 16:58, 21 August 2023 (UTC) reply

    Whether procedural or not, AfD really isn't the best forum for this type of merge discussion. AfDs are fixed-length, general discussions about whether an article should be deleted based on policies and guidelines, and if alternatives can be found. For the type of merge being proposed, if a discussion is needed, it should give chance for editors who have worked on the article to participate, often taking longer than an AFD, but sometimes being much quicker when consensus develops rapidly. There's also the option for a WP:BOLD merge, with the understanding that it might get reverted if there's disagreement and a discussion ends up being needed anyways. Honestly, for actual article editing, I prefer any of these "less procedural" options than AfD. — siro χ o 16:23, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Subject lacks sustained secondary coverage to meet any notability guideline. Falls into WP:BLP1E. I have no issues with a redirect to Barack Obama judicial appointment controversies. Let'srun ( talk) 02:13, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

The result was speedy delete‎. CSD G5. I'm closing this as a speedy delete CSD G5 despite the opinion to Keep this article as it just quotes policy without emphasizing what specific content in this article is relevant to notability criterion. Liz Read! Talk! 01:41, 23 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Non-notable film person, sourcing is largely cast lists/projects worked on, nothing for notability found. Oaktree b ( talk) 19:54, 1 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete per WP:G5. Author was the sock. A confirmed account was globally locked for spamming back in May, and I expect there are older accounts going back before then that are stale to the CU tool, but certainly any creations since May should be speedy deleted.

Subject does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NPOL as a failed judicial nominee. A redirect to Barack Obama judicial appointment controversies seems reasonable. Let'srun ( talk) 02:06, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to Barack Obama judicial appointment controversies per nom (thanks for unbundling this from the rest, makes things a lot easier). There is a noticeable lack of sources on this person (no matter what version of the name is entered) outside of the WP:BLP1E failed judicial nomination. Take the paragraph on that nomination out of the article, and all we're left with is a WP:RESUME. The target article retains the basic info just fine.

  • Comment Are you just going to keep nominating each judicial article individually until you get you desired result? Because that's how it's starting to come off. Snickers2686 ( talk) 03:50, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

    Delete per the last discussion, less than a month ago: ""Les sources ne montrent pas qu'il aurait reçu des prix. Notoriété à vérifier sérieusement. Canular ?" The sources do not indicate that he's won prizes. Notoriety needs serious verification. Hoax/prank? was the reason given in the Fr wiki deletion discussion. I'm going to say it's not notable here either. They tag it and if it doesn't get updated, it gets auto deleted after a year (since) that it's been tagged, which is different than what we use here." Hoax prizes, non-useful sourcing. SALT. Oaktree b ( talk) 01:17, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Also: " No sourcing find for this person. Not sure what sourcing we're using as notability, I can't find anything. The Fr wiki template searches the BnF (nothing turns up), Persee (nothing turns up) and other sites. If this person was this well-known, I'd expect something in French-African sources. Another drapeau rouge red flag. Zut alors!" Lack of sources/appears to be a hoax prize. Deleted in the Fr wiki. Oaktree b ( talk) 01:19, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per previous discussion. Alaa Sarhan is no more notable than he was the last time. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 09:01, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Delete – If you can't notice, the article is a mess, its like, He was born in Mansoura, Egypt, other than IMDb, which is generally unreliable, the first source states that he was born in a non existent city, based on the governorate Mansoura is in. Nevertheless, there aren't any related articles for the Arabic and Egyptian Arabic Wikis, where such content would be at. The creator also messed with sources, poorly citing material in text and otherwise there aren't much sources other than Arabic ones. ToadetteEdit ( chat)/( logs) 15:17, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
