A movie that does not appear to actually pass the WP:GNG. It was nominated for deletion back in 2015, but kept due to the argument that the sources found during that AFD (which are now in the article itself) were enough to establish notability. However, actually looking at the sources shows that this is not the case. The Bloody Disgusting and "Dread Central" sources are simply postings of the film's trailer, with no actual coverage or discussion of the film. There are two reviews also listed here, and while I am not sure whether or not Ain't It Cool News is considered a reliable source for movie reviews currently, the Technorati source is most certainly not, as Technorati is an advertising platform, and that "review" is very obviously a poorly written promotional piece. Rotten Tomatoes lists zero professional review for the film, and my own searches did not turn up any significant coverage or reviews in reliable sources. In short, I don't believe this film actually does pass the WP:GNG or WP:NFILM, and it should be brought back to AFD for a re-evaluation. Rorshacma ( talk) 23:12, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete: Per nom. My findings are basically the same. The production section is only primary sources, which means no third party outlets wrote about this film. The critical reception is poor and almost nonexistent other than possibly a pay-to-review sites. The page claims to have had a limited release, but that's disputable. Also, not a single cast/crew/company involved in this film has a Wikipedia page (that should say something). Fails WP:NFILM. Mike  Allen 20:40, 17 February 2023 (UTC) reply

I'm not seeing sufficient notability here. No none-routine coverage while he held the press secretary position (not an inherently notable office in itself); all coverage is about him being sacked, for which we get 4x the same press release, one hit piece, and an interview denying said hit piece.

I created this article, however Wikipedia:Notability (politics) proposes that diplomatic notability should be a person who has "received significant coverage in crafting an international agreement or related to a notable diplomatic event."

Fair enough, but you describe a reference bias (versus concentrating on sources). Per WP:NEXIST Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article.

  • Keep and move to City Bus Simulator 2010 The topic of this article isn't the original game in the series, City Bus Simulator 2010, but about the series which only has 2 main games. Like Jumpytoo demonstrated above, City Bus Simulator 2010 (for which an article can be created with the sequel info in a section) meets WP:GNG separately. However, there are no multiple significant reliable sources in my searches that cover the series in general, which is the actual topic that doesn't meet WP:GNG. While my first choice would be to move the article to a base name of the original game, there's little of anything concrete regarding the first game only to support itself beyond a short lead and would be better off with a WP:TNT. Jovanmilic97 ( talk) 19:59, 15 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    There is a usable revision that discusses the first game in a bit more detail. While still a stub, it should be a good starting point if the article is to be moved as you propose. At the very least, I don't see the need for WP:TNT deletion. Jumpytoo Talk 03:25, 16 February 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Keep The argument seems to be that sequel isn't considered as notable as the first game. But if the first game is to be considered notable then it would obviously be essential for the article to acknowledge the sequel, which would basically end up with the same situation as present just with a rewording for Wiki editors' sake that wouldn't actually benefit anyone seeking information. I personally would consider both to be notable if nothing else because CBS2 had large-scale retail releases with multiple publishers across different countries, which in 2014 did carry significance (unlike the many thousands of rushed out mobile or indie games that exist today). I don't have sufficient interest in this to bother researching suitable sources but if anyone does wish to try I'd suggest looking at German speaking media.

  • Delete - Going against the grain here, I know. We have a simulation game about driving a bus in NYC, two subjects for which there are two entirely separate, obsessed fandoms, and these are the only sources available? What does this add, exactly? These appear to be concurrent reviews that don't build on the coverage in any way. The most in-depth (to the extent that it's hard to say the others add much) is from 4players. Assuming that's a good source, it's still not a lot to go on, and if a handful of reviews, with no indication of lasting significance, are all that's required to satisfy video game notability (contrary to the GNG), I'm going to say the bar is too low in this field. But on the subject of reliability, it looks like folks are just deferring to this page, where it was added based on a single opinion from a user with a few hundred edits. Not faulting anything they said, but again it's such a low bar. But I say this knowing that I'm utterly in the minority here, too. :) — Rhododendrites talk \\ 14:28, 21 February 2023 (UTC) reply

Every subset of album charts doesn't meet criteria for stand-alone lists. Sources come directly from the publisher just reproducing top 10 lists (no emphasis on #1s or zero actual coverage). There are not independent reliable or significant sourcing. Existence ≠ notability of a topic. Not every chart needs a list of #1s. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars Talk to me 00:23, 24 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Delete per nomination. As they said, this is just a reproduction and that doesn't belong here. Also holy crud there's a lot of these. Might need to expand this to cover more. I'm seeing dozens separated by year, country, and genre (and many all-genre lists as well) which all look to suffer from the same issue. If this AfD expands then count my vote to delete against those as well. QuietHere ( talk) 00:49, 24 January 2023 (UTC) reply
Comment – No evidence has been presented that research has been conducted to determine the topic is not notable other than looking at the sources present in the list, which was created less than 24 hours ago. This goes against WP:BEFORE. Heartfox ( talk) 04:32, 24 January 2023 (UTC) reply
The argument presented is that saying that said evidence doesn't exist though. How would one prove such a thing? You generally need to provide a counterpoint of coverage existing before you can through a BEFORE in someone's face... Sergecross73 msg me 16:31, 25 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Your example AFD is a decade old. Standards have generally tightened. That same article may not survive were in nominated today. Your other examples...really have on bearing on this. Whether or not other similar articles have been nominated are irrelevant. Sometimes bad articles slip under the radar. I'd focus less on these WP:OSE type observations, and more on this particular articles notability. Sergecross73 msg me 15:24, 26 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • There should be a lot more lists nominated if the arguments above are genuine. I oppose deletion because I do not feel that adequate research has been conducted to determine the topic is not notable. This chart was active in the late 1990s/early 2000s and many resources (particularly Canadian publications, etc.) from then are not (yet) accessible, e.g. The Record. How do we know there wasn't significant coverage/articles about the chart in it? The data is still valuable, but perhaps not notable enough for a separate list, so I would also support a merge to Canadian Albums Chart, which is what this topic is a subset of. That article can absolutely be expanded, and the table in this list can be styled a different way to minimize length. Heartfox ( talk) 21:26, 26 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    The WP:BURDEN is on you to provide evidence for your own stance. As is, your keep stance largely violates WP:THEREMUSTBESOURCES. Sergecross73 msg me 23:07, 26 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    If the sources aren't accessible then we can't just assume the coverage exists in them and leave pages up based on that.

WP:NPLACE says "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. This includes mountains, lakes, streams, islands, etc. The number of known sources should be considered to ensure there is enough verifiable content for an encyclopedic article. If a Wikipedia article cannot be developed using known sources, information on the feature can instead be included in a more general article on local geography. For example, a river island with no information available except name and location should probably be described in an article on the river."

I suggest that there are no other details to write than the name and location on nautical maps. There isn't much else that could be said; it's a rock off an uninhabited island which is part of an almost entirely uninhabited island chain in Antarctica.

Was drafted but never played in the NFL. Being a college player and a member of the 1969 College All-American Team is not enough to show notability. References seem to be mentions in databases, but would be happy to see a longer ref which meets the GNG. JMWt ( talk) 13:49, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

The best college player. There is no accepted notability standard for college American football players but even WP:CFBPLAYER which is an essay put forward by an interested wikiproject fails to note being an All-American pick. Indeed, it goes on to suggest that a professional career afterwards is more important. Personally I don't accept any special status for student athletes in the USA or anywhere else - they need to meet the standards for the GNG and WP:NSPORTS.
As to your articles, they are interesting but arguably they are (a) local media articles (b) which are short and routine and (c) focus on the successes of a young HS and university athlete. The kind of article that is written about those kinds of athletes in every newspaper everywhere. Don't meet the GNG in my opinion. JMWt ( talk) 16:16, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
Being the BEST player in the nation at center is a hugely significant accomplishment, and All-American is a pass of NCOLLATH (even a third-team selection would do it – but this is not that, neither second-team or even first-team – this is a Consensus All-American). As for the articles, locality is 100% irrelevant, ROUTINE does not apply to people (but rather, to events), and collegiate coverage can absolutely count towards GNG.

Doesn't seem to meet WP:SINGER or WP:GNG. Not finding independent coverage or notability for this artist outside of their association with their childhood friend, Lil Xan, which is mostly passing mentions. Sources provided are not considered WP:RS. 5 are to a media company named Lyrical Lemonade (a company/blog that produced videos for the artist and Lil Xan), 1 to an interview on Genius, a passing mention on hiphopdx, and an interview posted on an apparel company's website. The performer's YouTube page also only has 1 video with over 500k views. Hey man im josh ( talk) 13:29, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

Song lyrics, annotations and descriptions on Genius are mostly user-generated content and are thus generally unreliable. There is no consensus on the reliability of articles, interviews and videos produced by Genius. Verified commentary from musicians fall under WP:BLPSELFPUB, and usage of such commentary should conform to that policy. Per the "genius is not considered a reliable source" link you attached.
They are only speaking about their lyric submissions, this is not produced by the musician nor a lyric submission.
HipHopDX is writing about HIS SONG, they mention $teven Cannon's name only a quantity of 3 less times than they mention Lil Xan.
Lyrical Lemonade did not produce SEVERAL VIDEOS for the artist. That is a lie, Lyrical Lemonade produced 1 video years prior, and their blog is ran by separate people. That's like saying because Hulu published a show about an artist now they cannot cover them in a documentary in order for it to be independent. That is absurd....
Song views ARE NOT an eligibility factor in determining notability.

HipHopDX is writing about HIS SONG, they mention $teven Cannon's name only a quantity of 3 less times than they mention Lil Xan. The article is centered around Lil Xan and they mention Cannon once (and not in a positive way).
Song views ARE NOT an eligibility factor in determining notability. In of themselves, no. Views are however useful in understanding how popular a person may be. As an example, if someone has multiple videos with 100m+ views it's much more likely that they're notable.
Regarding Lyrical Lemonade, it's a website owned by video director / videographer, Cole Bennett. Even if they only produced one video they are still a blog (as you mentioned) and have a connection with the person that they're writing about.

Pretty sure you're focusing on the wrong points here. You also called Lyrical Lemonade a blog, but it falls under WP:NEWSBLOG, as was explained to you on your talk page by another editor. If this person is as notable as you claim him to be then find non-trivial mentions from any source listed on WP:RS/P and add them to the article. That would be far more constructive than you comparing Lyrical Lemonade to the larger news websites. Hey man im josh ( talk) 18:38, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

    So one of the biggest Hip Hop platforms is not a reliable music media source. LOL, your bias is clearly showing. Officialangrydub ( talk) 17:21, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
HipHopDX is indeed a reliable source but this discussion is not about them. The discussion is about Mr. Cannon who was mentioned very briefly in a HipHopDX article that was about someone else. I was once mentioned in a city newspaper because I had done some volunteer work, but that doesn't make me notable just because that newspaper is a reliable source. Meanwhile, LOLing and accusing people of bias and opinionated nonsense might make you feel like you achieved a victory, but Mr. Cannon's lack of notability is the real opponent that you need to defeat. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 23:59, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
Being mentioned in a news article once is entirely different from having songs with millions of streams, being featured on Lyrical Lemonade, and this arist's overall situation.
The issue is perceived notability. While in a way I guess I was comparing LL to "major" news sites, in reality I was just showing you guys that the eligibility factors you guys use to determine reliability of them as a source in comparison to other sources is very inconsistent at best. There's just no factual, non-opiniated reason as to why Lyrical Lemonade isn't a reliable source.. Officialangrydub ( talk) 13:20, 15 February 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete I had already mentioned notability issues on the talk page and previously supported PROD raised by the nominator, which I gather ended up being contested. More time has passed, and there is still no support WP:SINGER or WP:GNG with sources that are verifiable WP:VERIFY. Despite the original editor's suggestions of bias, the criteria for verifiability are quite clear; in the case of Lyrical Lemonade we are dealing with WP:NEWSBLOG at best. It does not mean that the source is not useful or that it is completely unreliable; it means that for the purpose of verifying claims of notability, it is not sufficient on its own. At the risk of sounding repetitive, let me outline four major issues that challenge its reliability and verifiability: 1) the tone of articles/posts indicates these are primarily opinion entries that might serve a specific audience to be used as a quick reference and/or update regarding featured artists; 2) there is no editorial team mentioned anywhere on the website, which indicates lack of editorial oversight, and there is no clear description of the publication and its goals or an editorial mission statement; 3) the website relies heavily on videos which often form the core content, a reliability challenge in and of itself per WP:VIDEOLINK 4) contact links only list the following: Music Submissions, Customer Service, and Brand partnerships/sponsorships. This is all to say: if the source in question was used to support a short statement made in an article on verifiably notable artist, then it might raise some eyebrows but would likely not be ferociously contested; as the main source establishing notability of a BLP, however, it is simply not enough.

General failure of WP:BASIC for a WP:BLP. Subject's notability is questionable, with few to no citations for any of their work, especially secondary sources. News sources to support television presence are unable to be found, aside from user submitted sources (IMDB, etc) ( WP:NRV).

Far too many primary or unreliable sources on the page. First citation is link to child's YouTube channel, without any news source. Seventh and tenth citations link to Sean Klitzner's own website, which redirects to YouTube channel. These are not appropriate sources.

The first AfD nomination of this article, made in 2006, had a keep result primarily on the basis of WP:GOOGLEHITS and WP:IKNOWIT. Looking at the page, the references currently listed are almost entirely WP:ABOUTSELF citations, which pose significant and obvious conflict of interest problems. In a WP:BEFORE (excluding self-coverage Google results with '-site:animenewsnetwork.com "anime news network" website'), I was hardly able to find any WP:SIGCOV, with the only particularly notable event being covered by other outlets being that they were acquired by Kadokawa Corporation last year. ( [13] [14]) I'm not sure that this makes them independently notable. Nearly every other hit fails the requirement to "address the topic directly and in detail" when considered as a potential source, nearly always only mentioning them in the context of quoting what someone from the site said about a different topic.

If further sources evidencing notability are found, I'll readily close this discussion if the consensus leads there, but as it stands I'm not sure this is worth its own article (though perhaps it can be merged into Kadokawa Corporation). silvia (BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) ( inquire within) 07:17, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

    Probably, yes, if it were included in the article. However, I don't see it mentioned nor sourced in the article, no secondary source was provided within the comment of the first AfD, and I was unable to find any reliable secondary sources covering that event. The one source that was provided in the AfD was a WP:PRIMARY source (from ANN itself) which I don't think clearly evidences that event's notability. If anyone finds a better source for that, I would probably agree that it proves the site to be notable. silvia (BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) ( inquire within) 14:36, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep I am looking through past discussions regarding the matter and found out that the parent company of ANN also published Protoculture Addicts. They also hosted regular columns by Jason Thompson ( Manga: The Complete Guide) as well as Mike Toole (formerly of AnimeJump). Here is a link to all of the discussions regarding ANN as a reliable source on Wikipedia: (Anime/Manga Project discussions: 1 2 3 4, RS/N discussions: 1 2). - Knowledgekid87 ( talk) 14:17, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment Whether or not ANN is a reliable source (they are) is a completely separate question of if they are a notable source. I don't think that the outcomes and findings of the RS discussions are of relevance to the question of their notability. There are plenty of reliable publications which are not notable enough to have their own Wikipedia articles.
    The Protoculture Addicts article meets the GNG more readily than this article does (by virtue of it not having eighty percent of its sources be itself) and I get the sense that the ANN article might be very well improved enough for me to support keeping if the information from the former were merged into the latter. silvia (BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) ( inquire within) 14:30, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    Additional sources for ANN: [15], [16], [17], [18].

    Thanks for finding these. I think that these books seem like good sources at a glance, and probably enough for the topic to better pass notability. If no one else comments with a dissenting opinion within like a day or two, I'll probably withdraw this AfD and add those sources to the article. silvia (BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) ( inquire within) 14:43, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

:* Keep the film is notable. It has been covered by the likes of Deadline Hollwood. Moreover, it has received wider interest than mere "routine announcements", with proof in articles in which it was name-dropped in independent, third-party reliable sources, such as Media Play News and frompage2screen. Further, all sources are international media / news outlets. I don't think any of the sources can be reasonably described as "local interest puff". I don't see any local news outlet reporting being cited. I do however agree that the references section could be cleaned - perhaps it is worth removing regurgitated news pieces that are spin-outs from the initial Deadline Hollywood article. One could argue that a film with the likes of Paterson Joseph and César Award-nominated Marc Duret is inherently notable. Thanks @ Duffbeerforme for raising. Very best regards.

The result was merge to Ukraine Yellow Kitchen Photo.

Article is mostly (entirely, actually) about his death, which is already covered extensively as part of the attack on the residential building by the Russian forces. Unfortunate event, for sure, but the article should be about the boxing coach, whose career is not covered at all and we can't be sure it was relevant at all. Bedivere ( talk) 02:43, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Keep. (as article creator) Subject meets WP:GNG due to the multiple pieces of significant coverage in reliable sources. His death was notable, so was his funeral, so was the photo taken of his kitchen. That's three events at least.
At first I thought this was a WP:ONEEVENT situation and I created it as Killing of Mykhailo Korenovsky, but consensus emerged on the talk page that a biographical style article was more appropriate, and User:Super Dromaeosaurus moved it, which I supported. Regarding the comment the article should be about the boxing coach..career is not covered... there is no policy that I'm aware of that someone has to be primarily notable for their job, people can be notable for their death, or for a video they made of their family before their death, or their kitchen. It's unusual, but not a policy based reason to delete.
I could list the sources that give the significant coverage, but BBC, New York Times, Sky News, Time Magazine etc etc all cover him, so it seems not necesary to prove, when it seems so obvious. CT55555( talk) 02:48, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
If the article is about the person, we need details on his life. His death is already covered in the missile attack article. If the article is about the yellow kitchen, we'd need sourcing on that. Dying in a missile attack in a war isn't notable; he's no different than any other person that passed away, as he wasn't a notable boxing coach. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:24, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
Exactly, several other people died during the attack and none of these have nor will have an article. Korenovsky's death is only known, barely, because of the kitchen photo. I think an article about the kitchen photo could be created eventually, where some of the content in this particular article about the boxing coach could be used. Obviously, if we can't be sure this individual is notable otherwise, this can't be kept. Bedivere ( talk) 03:32, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
There's a Time magazine article I linked in the photographer's AfD, talking about the impact of the photo. That could be the lead and these could all be selectively merged there. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:47, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete he's not notable as a person, we could perhaps have an article about the kitchen photo, but I think it's adequately covered as explained in the nom. He's a non-notable boxing coach, who had he not died, would not warrant an article. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:20, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    If Slash had not been so good at the guitar, he also wouldn't warrant one. That's not a reason to delete an article. Indeed it's the kitchen photo that went globally viral, that is actually what this article is mostly about, in my opinion, how a photo touched the hearts of so many people. That is a separate topic from the actual bombing. Just like Alan Kurdi's death was separate from the sinking of the ship that his family were on. To delete this article is to think that the response to the photo is the same topic as the bombing, but it is not. Plenty people know of the yellow kitchen, but not the wider event. The kitchen might be more notable than the wider event. I'm even more surprised that anyone would favour deletion over merging to 2022–2023 Dnipro missile strikes which I assume was the most dramatic action anyone would advocate for here. CT55555( talk) 03:32, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Then create an article about the kitchen photo, not about the non-notable boxing coach who is not even the primary subject of the article, but the kitchen photo. Bedivere ( talk) 03:33, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Please note that I created an event article, which someone else changed into this biographical article. I created an article about an event, not a biography. I'm OK with the change, but before you tell me what to do, please note what I actually did do. CT55555( talk) 03:40, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    I did not mean to be rude, @ CT55555. Please excuse me if it read like that. Bedivere ( talk) 03:40, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    You have proposed to delete three things that I've started in less than an hour, and then you tell me what to do...to be transparent, this chain of events is not filling me with joy.
    Moving on...what do you think an article about the yellow kitchen should be titled? That was my starting point, but all roads I took lead here. I feel strongly that the yellow kitchen photo and the global response to it was a significant moment in human history, exactly how it is presented matters less. CT55555( talk) 03:51, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    AfD is not clean-up. We have three non-notable articles that could be incorporated into another article. We're here discussing each individually, hopefully to keep some information about this event and the people involved. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:49, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    I'm thinking that photo might be up for a Pulitzer Prize or something similar, it seems to have struck a chord with people. Like the photo of the girl running naked from the fire bombing in Vietnam, it just seems to catch a certain time and place in the war. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:51, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Yes. I added it below. Phan Thi Kim Phuc photographed by Nick Ut during the Vietnam War CT55555( talk) 04:06, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    I don't want to go all WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS but this is a great comparison point and I note that the solution for the above was an article on the person, which exists simultaneous to the event article (the war) and the photographer's article. I hope you all might be sympathetic for lean towards consistency in how the encyclopaedia has dealt with pervious notable war photos. CT55555( talk) 04:12, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Let's keep things in perspective. This is nowhere being as notable as the Vietnam photo. It might be in the future, we don't know. But just because other stuff exists (as per the page you linked, actually) doesn't mean this one should exist. I am all for keeping only an article about the photo, merging the boxer and photographer articles, as long as the photo is considered notable by other users. Bedivere ( talk) 11:11, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
From Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup in a nutshell: If an article on a notable subject can be improved through normal editing, do not put it through a deletion discussion. I agree strongly. CT55555( talk) 03:53, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Comment. Since the recent comment above, I have added an early life and education section, a career section, and a family life section.

  • Comment Just reaffirming my deletion vote above as I am not sure that Ukraine Yellow Kitchen Photo even passes WP:GNG when you look at the sources more closely. Sources are mainly about the event rather than the photograph. Vladimir.copic ( talk) 23:53, 12 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    Request to closing admin (or indeed anyone) for advice on the circular problem I'm faced with. This was an event article. The comment above suggests agreement that there is potential for an event article. But an editor unilaterally changed the original version of the article we are discussing here away from Killing of Mykhailo Korenovsky to this current title. Then people said he is not notable, but the photograph is, so I create the photograph article. Now it is suggested that the photograph is not notable, but the event that created it is. That's full circle. The range of opinions here seem all be editors who think something is notable, maybe the person, maybe the photograph, maybe the event. I wouldn't mind much if we could reach consensus on which one is and direct everything there, but I fear the theme here is people focussing on what they want to delete, implying something should be kept, but without consensus on what, please can we all agree not to delete everything?
    Maybe this would have been a more productive discussion if the three simultaneous deletion discussions were done on the one page. CT55555( talk) 00:01, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    To clarify, I think nothing and no one related to this photograph/event is notable and the topic falls into WP:NOTNEWS. Maybe it will become notable over time - who knows - but it isn't now. Creating multiple articles to try and get this covered on WP doesn't seem very productive. Vladimir.copic ( talk) 00:06, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    Of course, three articles about the same thing are more than needed. One, if any, would suffice and that's the kitchen photo article. Bedivere ( talk) 00:09, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    For the record, one is a detailed biography of a photographer with years of press coverage for about four notable events. One is the biography of a man, that I do agree was better suited as an event article. One is about a photograph, that I was encouraged to create , earlier in the AFD. I see overlap between the event and the photograph article, the suggestion that Yan Dobronosov is only notable for one photograph, when reliable sources have documented his years-long interesting career, I find difficult to leave unchallenged. CT55555( talk) 00:21, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    I did encourage you to create the kitchen photo article and have not suggested it to be deleted, but others may find it is a possibility. I do think Dobronosov is not sufficiently notable and as I have previously told you in their own AFD, we do not have to agree on this. Bedivere ( talk) 01:56, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    Sorry for my error. You proposed to delete the photo, not the article about the photo. CT55555( talk) 02:04, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    I did propose the photo for deletion before the article was created (and where inclusion is valid), because I don't think the fair use rationales for their use on the boxing coach and the photographer article are correct. It will not be deleted (as long as the photo article remains live). Bedivere ( talk) 02:12, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply

Relisting comment: Sorry to relist again but I'm not seeing a consensus except for a majority of editors who think some part of this event/photo/person is notable. That is why I suggested considering a Merge. I wish I could wave my hand and bundle all three articles into one AFD but that is not possible at this point.

  • Comment I've been following this discussion and I'll admit I have mixed feelings about the various articles that have been mentioned. I really don't think that Korenovsky has done anything that would merit a standalone article--I see no SNG that is met nor do I think the coverage of him meets WP:GNG. All deaths are tragic, but most fall under WP:NOTNEWS. There have been plenty of pictures from the invasion of Ukraine which generate a range of emotions, but I don't know which of them will stand the test of time in terms of historical significance--which is what I think WP:NEVENT is about.

Just as a note, I was planning to work on this... When requesting undeletion I explicitly stated that it could be restored to my userspace to allow me to work on this before bringing it back to the mainspace.

A movie that does not appear to actually pass the WP:GNG. It was nominated for deletion back in 2015, but kept due to the argument that the sources found during that AFD (which are now in the article itself) were enough to establish notability. However, actually looking at the sources shows that this is not the case. The Bloody Disgusting and "Dread Central" sources are simply postings of the film's trailer, with no actual coverage or discussion of the film. There are two reviews also listed here, and while I am not sure whether or not Ain't It Cool News is considered a reliable source for movie reviews currently, the Technorati source is most certainly not, as Technorati is an advertising platform, and that "review" is very obviously a poorly written promotional piece. Rotten Tomatoes lists zero professional review for the film, and my own searches did not turn up any significant coverage or reviews in reliable sources. In short, I don't believe this film actually does pass the WP:GNG or WP:NFILM, and it should be brought back to AFD for a re-evaluation. Rorshacma ( talk) 23:12, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete: Per nom. My findings are basically the same. The production section is only primary sources, which means no third party outlets wrote about this film. The critical reception is poor and almost nonexistent other than possibly a pay-to-review sites. The page claims to have had a limited release, but that's disputable. Also, not a single cast/crew/company involved in this film has a Wikipedia page (that should say something). Fails WP:NFILM. Mike  Allen 20:40, 17 February 2023 (UTC) reply

I'm not seeing sufficient notability here. No none-routine coverage while he held the press secretary position (not an inherently notable office in itself); all coverage is about him being sacked, for which we get 4x the same press release, one hit piece, and an interview denying said hit piece.

  • Keep and move to City Bus Simulator 2010 The topic of this article isn't the original game in the series, City Bus Simulator 2010, but about the series which only has 2 main games. Like Jumpytoo demonstrated above, City Bus Simulator 2010 (for which an article can be created with the sequel info in a section) meets WP:GNG separately. However, there are no multiple significant reliable sources in my searches that cover the series in general, which is the actual topic that doesn't meet WP:GNG. While my first choice would be to move the article to a base name of the original game, there's little of anything concrete regarding the first game only to support itself beyond a short lead and would be better off with a WP:TNT. Jovanmilic97 ( talk) 19:59, 15 February 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Keep The argument seems to be that sequel isn't considered as notable as the first game. But if the first game is to be considered notable then it would obviously be essential for the article to acknowledge the sequel, which would basically end up with the same situation as present just with a rewording for Wiki editors' sake that wouldn't actually benefit anyone seeking information. I personally would consider both to be notable if nothing else because CBS2 had large-scale retail releases with multiple publishers across different countries, which in 2014 did carry significance (unlike the many thousands of rushed out mobile or indie games that exist today). I don't have sufficient interest in this to bother researching suitable sources but if anyone does wish to try I'd suggest looking at German speaking media.

These appear to be concurrent reviews that don't build on the coverage in any way. The most in-depth (to the extent that it's hard to say the others add much) is from 4players. Assuming that's a good source, it's still not a lot to go on, and if a handful of reviews, with no indication of lasting significance, are all that's required to satisfy video game notability (contrary to the GNG), I'm going to say the bar is too low in this field. But on the subject of reliability, it looks like folks are just deferring to this page, where it was added based on a single opinion from a user with a few hundred edits. Not faulting anything they said, but again it's such a low bar. But I say this knowing that I'm utterly in the minority here, too. :) — Rhododendrites talk \\ 14:28, 21 February 2023 (UTC) reply

Every subset of album charts doesn't meet criteria for stand-alone lists. Sources come directly from the publisher just reproducing top 10 lists (no emphasis on #1s or zero actual coverage). There are not independent reliable or significant sourcing. Existence ≠ notability of a topic. Not every chart needs a list of #1s. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars Talk to me 00:23, 24 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Delete per nomination. As they said, this is just a reproduction and that doesn't belong here. Also holy crud there's a lot of these. Might need to expand this to cover more. I'm seeing dozens separated by year, country, and genre (and many all-genre lists as well) which all look to suffer from the same issue. If this AfD expands then count my vote to delete against those as well. QuietHere ( talk) 00:49, 24 January 2023 (UTC) reply
Comment – No evidence has been presented that research has been conducted to determine the topic is not notable other than looking at the sources present in the list, which was created less than 24 hours ago. This goes against WP:BEFORE. Heartfox ( talk) 04:32, 24 January 2023 (UTC) reply
The argument presented is that saying that said evidence doesn't exist though. How would one prove such a thing? You generally need to provide a counterpoint of coverage existing before you can through a BEFORE in someone's face... Sergecross73 msg me 16:31, 25 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Your example AFD is a decade old. Standards have generally tightened. That same article may not survive were in nominated today. Your other examples...really have on bearing on this. Whether or not other similar articles have been nominated are irrelevant. Sometimes bad articles slip under the radar. I'd focus less on these WP:OSE type observations, and more on this particular articles notability. Sergecross73 msg me 15:24, 26 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • There should be a lot more lists nominated if the arguments above are genuine. I oppose deletion because I do not feel that adequate research has been conducted to determine the topic is not notable. This chart was active in the late 1990s/early 2000s and many resources (particularly Canadian publications, etc.) from then are not (yet) accessible, e.g. The Record. How do we know there wasn't significant coverage/articles about the chart in it? The data is still valuable, but perhaps not notable enough for a separate list, so I would also support a merge to Canadian Albums Chart, which is what this topic is a subset of. That article can absolutely be expanded, and the table in this list can be styled a different way to minimize length. Heartfox ( talk) 21:26, 26 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    The WP:BURDEN is on you to provide evidence for your own stance. As is, your keep stance largely violates WP:THEREMUSTBESOURCES. Sergecross73 msg me 23:07, 26 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    If the sources aren't accessible then we can't just assume the coverage exists in them and leave pages up based on that. And you can't put the burden of adequate research on another editor when you openly admit that the research would involve exploring inaccessible sources.

That article would have sections for other genre charts ie the country albums chart.

WP:NPLACE says "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. This includes mountains, lakes, streams, islands, etc. The number of known sources should be considered to ensure there is enough verifiable content for an encyclopedic article. If a Wikipedia article cannot be developed using known sources, information on the feature can instead be included in a more general article on local geography. For example, a river island with no information available except name and location should probably be described in an article on the river."

I suggest that there are no other details to write than the name and location on nautical maps. There isn't much else that could be said; it's a rock off an uninhabited island which is part of an almost entirely uninhabited island chain in Antarctica.

Was drafted but never played in the NFL. Being a college player and a member of the 1969 College All-American Team is not enough to show notability. References seem to be mentions in databases, but would be happy to see a longer ref which meets the GNG. JMWt ( talk) 13:49, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

The best college player. There is no accepted notability standard for college American football players but even WP:CFBPLAYER which is an essay put forward by an interested wikiproject fails to note being an All-American pick. Indeed, it goes on to suggest that a professional career afterwards is more important. Personally I don't accept any special status for student athletes in the USA or anywhere else - they need to meet the standards for the GNG and WP:NSPORTS.
As to your articles, they are interesting but arguably they are (a) local media articles (b) which are short and routine and (c) focus on the successes of a young HS and university athlete. The kind of article that is written about those kinds of athletes in every newspaper everywhere. Don't meet the GNG in my opinion. JMWt ( talk) 16:16, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
Being the BEST player in the nation at center is a hugely significant accomplishment, and All-American is a pass of NCOLLATH (even a third-team selection would do it – but this is not that, neither second-team or even first-team – this is a Consensus All-American). As for the articles, locality is 100% irrelevant, ROUTINE does not apply to people (but rather, to events), and collegiate coverage can absolutely count towards GNG.

Not at all.

Doesn't seem to meet WP:SINGER or WP:GNG. Not finding independent coverage or notability for this artist outside of their association with their childhood friend, Lil Xan, which is mostly passing mentions. Sources provided are not considered WP:RS. 5 are to a media company named Lyrical Lemonade (a company/blog that produced videos for the artist and Lil Xan), 1 to an interview on Genius, a passing mention on hiphopdx, and an interview posted on an apparel company's website. The performer's YouTube page also only has 1 video with over 500k views. Hey man im josh ( talk) 13:29, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

Song lyrics, annotations and descriptions on Genius are mostly user-generated content and are thus generally unreliable. There is no consensus on the reliability of articles, interviews and videos produced by Genius. Verified commentary from musicians fall under WP:BLPSELFPUB, and usage of such commentary should conform to that policy. Per the "genius is not considered a reliable source" link you attached.
They are only speaking about their lyric submissions, this is not produced by the musician nor a lyric submission.
HipHopDX is writing about HIS SONG, they mention $teven Cannon's name only a quantity of 3 less times than they mention Lil Xan.
Lyrical Lemonade did not produce SEVERAL VIDEOS for the artist. That is a lie, Lyrical Lemonade produced 1 video years prior, and their blog is ran by separate people. That's like saying because Hulu published a show about an artist now they cannot cover them in a documentary in order for it to be independent. That is absurd....
Song views ARE NOT an eligibility factor in determining notability.

HipHopDX is writing about HIS SONG, they mention $teven Cannon's name only a quantity of 3 less times than they mention Lil Xan. The article is centered around Lil Xan and they mention Cannon once (and not in a positive way).
Song views ARE NOT an eligibility factor in determining notability. In of themselves, no. Views are however useful in understanding how popular a person may be. As an example, if someone has multiple videos with 100m+ views it's much more likely that they're notable.
Regarding Lyrical Lemonade, it's a website owned by video director / videographer, Cole Bennett. Even if they only produced one video they are still a blog (as you mentioned) and have a connection with the person that they're writing about.

Pretty sure you're focusing on the wrong points here. You also called Lyrical Lemonade a blog, but it falls under WP:NEWSBLOG, as was explained to you on your talk page by another editor. If this person is as notable as you claim him to be then find non-trivial mentions from any source listed on WP:RS/P and add them to the article. That would be far more constructive than you comparing Lyrical Lemonade to the larger news websites. Hey man im josh ( talk) 18:38, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

    So one of the biggest Hip Hop platforms is not a reliable music media source. LOL, your bias is clearly showing. Officialangrydub ( talk) 17:21, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
HipHopDX is indeed a reliable source but this discussion is not about them. The discussion is about Mr. Cannon who was mentioned very briefly in a HipHopDX article that was about someone else. I was once mentioned in a city newspaper because I had done some volunteer work, but that doesn't make me notable just because that newspaper is a reliable source. Meanwhile, LOLing and accusing people of bias and opinionated nonsense might make you feel like you achieved a victory, but Mr. Cannon's lack of notability is the real opponent that you need to defeat. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 23:59, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
Being mentioned in a news article once is entirely different from having songs with millions of streams, being featured on Lyrical Lemonade, and this arist's overall situation.
The issue is perceived notability. While in a way I guess I was comparing LL to "major" news sites, in reality I was just showing you guys that the eligibility factors you guys use to determine reliability of them as a source in comparison to other sources is very inconsistent at best. There's just no factual, non-opiniated reason as to why Lyrical Lemonade isn't a reliable source.. Officialangrydub ( talk) 13:20, 15 February 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete I had already mentioned notability issues on the talk page and previously supported PROD raised by the nominator, which I gather ended up being contested. More time has passed, and there is still no support WP:SINGER or WP:GNG with sources that are verifiable WP:VERIFY. Despite the original editor's suggestions of bias, the criteria for verifiability are quite clear; in the case of Lyrical Lemonade we are dealing with WP:NEWSBLOG at best. It does not mean that the source is not useful or that it is completely unreliable; it means that for the purpose of verifying claims of notability, it is not sufficient on its own. At the risk of sounding repetitive, let me outline four major issues that challenge its reliability and verifiability: 1) the tone of articles/posts indicates these are primarily opinion entries that might serve a specific audience to be used as a quick reference and/or update regarding featured artists; 2) there is no editorial team mentioned anywhere on the website, which indicates lack of editorial oversight, and there is no clear description of the publication and its goals or an editorial mission statement; 3) the website relies heavily on videos which often form the core content, a reliability challenge in and of itself per WP:VIDEOLINK 4) contact links only list the following: Music Submissions, Customer Service, and Brand partnerships/sponsorships. This is all to say: if the source in question was used to support a short statement made in an article on verifiably notable artist, then it might raise some eyebrows but would likely not be ferociously contested; as the main source establishing notability of a BLP, however, it is simply not enough.

General failure of WP:BASIC for a WP:BLP. Subject's notability is questionable, with few to no citations for any of their work, especially secondary sources. News sources to support television presence are unable to be found, aside from user submitted sources (IMDB, etc) ( WP:NRV).

Far too many primary or unreliable sources on the page. First citation is link to child's YouTube channel, without any news source. Seventh and tenth citations link to Sean Klitzner's own website, which redirects to YouTube channel. These are not appropriate sources.

The first AfD nomination of this article, made in 2006, had a keep result primarily on the basis of WP:GOOGLEHITS and WP:IKNOWIT. Looking at the page, the references currently listed are almost entirely WP:ABOUTSELF citations, which pose significant and obvious conflict of interest problems. In a WP:BEFORE (excluding self-coverage Google results with '-site:animenewsnetwork.com "anime news network" website'), I was hardly able to find any WP:SIGCOV, with the only particularly notable event being covered by other outlets being that they were acquired by Kadokawa Corporation last year. ( [13] [14]) I'm not sure that this makes them independently notable. Nearly every other hit fails the requirement to "address the topic directly and in detail" when considered as a potential source, nearly always only mentioning them in the context of quoting what someone from the site said about a different topic.

If further sources evidencing notability are found, I'll readily close this discussion if the consensus leads there, but as it stands I'm not sure this is worth its own article (though perhaps it can be merged into Kadokawa Corporation). silvia (BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) ( inquire within) 07:17, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply

    Probably, yes, if it were included in the article. However, I don't see it mentioned nor sourced in the article, no secondary source was provided within the comment of the first AfD, and I was unable to find any reliable secondary sources covering that event. The one source that was provided in the AfD was a WP:PRIMARY source (from ANN itself) which I don't think clearly evidences that event's notability. If anyone finds a better source for that, I would probably agree that it proves the site to be notable. silvia (BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) ( inquire within) 14:36, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep I am looking through past discussions regarding the matter and found out that the parent company of ANN also published Protoculture Addicts. They also hosted regular columns by Jason Thompson ( Manga: The Complete Guide) as well as Mike Toole (formerly of AnimeJump). Here is a link to all of the discussions regarding ANN as a reliable source on Wikipedia: (Anime/Manga Project discussions: 1 2 3 4, RS/N discussions: 1 2). - Knowledgekid87 ( talk) 14:17, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment Whether or not ANN is a reliable source (they are) is a completely separate question of if they are a notable source. I don't think that the outcomes and findings of the RS discussions are of relevance to the question of their notability. There are plenty of reliable publications which are not notable enough to have their own Wikipedia articles.
    The Protoculture Addicts article meets the GNG more readily than this article does (by virtue of it not having eighty percent of its sources be itself) and I get the sense that the ANN article might be very well improved enough for me to support keeping if the information from the former were merged into the latter. silvia (BlankpopsiclesilviaASHs4) ( inquire within) 14:30, 14 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    Additional sources for ANN: [15], [16], [17], [18].

    Thanks for finding these. I think that these books seem like good sources at a glance, and probably enough for the topic to better pass notability.

:* Keep the film is notable. It has been covered by the likes of Deadline Hollwood. Moreover, it has received wider interest than mere "routine announcements", with proof in articles in which it was name-dropped in independent, third-party reliable sources, such as Media Play News and frompage2screen. Further, all sources are international media / news outlets. I don't think any of the sources can be reasonably described as "local interest puff". I don't see any local news outlet reporting being cited. I do however agree that the references section could be cleaned - perhaps it is worth removing regurgitated news pieces that are spin-outs from the initial Deadline Hollywood article. One could argue that a film with the likes of Paterson Joseph and César Award-nominated Marc Duret is inherently notable. Thanks @ Duffbeerforme for raising. Very best regards.

The result was merge to Ukraine Yellow Kitchen Photo.

Article is mostly (entirely, actually) about his death, which is already covered extensively as part of the attack on the residential building by the Russian forces. Unfortunate event, for sure, but the article should be about the boxing coach, whose career is not covered at all and we can't be sure it was relevant at all. Bedivere ( talk) 02:43, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Keep. (as article creator) Subject meets WP:GNG due to the multiple pieces of significant coverage in reliable sources. His death was notable, so was his funeral, so was the photo taken of his kitchen. That's three events at least.
At first I thought this was a WP:ONEEVENT situation and I created it as Killing of Mykhailo Korenovsky, but consensus emerged on the talk page that a biographical style article was more appropriate, and User:Super Dromaeosaurus moved it, which I supported. Regarding the comment the article should be about the boxing coach..career is not covered... there is no policy that I'm aware of that someone has to be primarily notable for their job, people can be notable for their death, or for a video they made of their family before their death, or their kitchen. It's unusual, but not a policy based reason to delete.
I could list the sources that give the significant coverage, but BBC, New York Times, Sky News, Time Magazine etc etc all cover him, so it seems not necesary to prove, when it seems so obvious. CT55555( talk) 02:48, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
If the article is about the person, we need details on his life. His death is already covered in the missile attack article. If the article is about the yellow kitchen, we'd need sourcing on that. Dying in a missile attack in a war isn't notable; he's no different than any other person that passed away, as he wasn't a notable boxing coach. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:24, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
Exactly, several other people died during the attack and none of these have nor will have an article. Korenovsky's death is only known, barely, because of the kitchen photo. I think an article about the kitchen photo could be created eventually, where some of the content in this particular article about the boxing coach could be used. Obviously, if we can't be sure this individual is notable otherwise, this can't be kept. Bedivere ( talk) 03:32, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
There's a Time magazine article I linked in the photographer's AfD, talking about the impact of the photo. That could be the lead and these could all be selectively merged there. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:47, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete he's not notable as a person, we could perhaps have an article about the kitchen photo, but I think it's adequately covered as explained in the nom. He's a non-notable boxing coach, who had he not died, would not warrant an article. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:20, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    If Slash had not been so good at the guitar, he also wouldn't warrant one. That's not a reason to delete an article. Indeed it's the kitchen photo that went globally viral, that is actually what this article is mostly about, in my opinion, how a photo touched the hearts of so many people. That is a separate topic from the actual bombing. Just like Alan Kurdi's death was separate from the sinking of the ship that his family were on. To delete this article is to think that the response to the photo is the same topic as the bombing, but it is not. Plenty people know of the yellow kitchen, but not the wider event. The kitchen might be more notable than the wider event. I'm even more surprised that anyone would favour deletion over merging to 2022–2023 Dnipro missile strikes which I assume was the most dramatic action anyone would advocate for here. CT55555( talk) 03:32, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Then create an article about the kitchen photo, not about the non-notable boxing coach who is not even the primary subject of the article, but the kitchen photo. Bedivere ( talk) 03:33, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Please note that I created an event article, which someone else changed into this biographical article. I created an article about an event, not a biography. I'm OK with the change, but before you tell me what to do, please note what I actually did do. CT55555( talk) 03:40, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply

    You have proposed to delete three things that I've started in less than an hour, and then you tell me what to do...to be transparent, this chain of events is not filling me with joy.
    Moving on...what do you think an article about the yellow kitchen should be titled? That was my starting point, but all roads I took lead here. I feel strongly that the yellow kitchen photo and the global response to it was a significant moment in human history, exactly how it is presented matters less. CT55555( talk) 03:51, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    AfD is not clean-up. We have three non-notable articles that could be incorporated into another article. We're here discussing each individually, hopefully to keep some information about this event and the people involved. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:49, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    I'm thinking that photo might be up for a Pulitzer Prize or something similar, it seems to have struck a chord with people. Like the photo of the girl running naked from the fire bombing in Vietnam, it just seems to catch a certain time and place in the war. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:51, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply

    I don't want to go all WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS but this is a great comparison point and I note that the solution for the above was an article on the person, which exists simultaneous to the event article (the war) and the photographer's article. I hope you all might be sympathetic for lean towards consistency in how the encyclopaedia has dealt with pervious notable war photos. CT55555( talk) 04:12, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Let's keep things in perspective. This is nowhere being as notable as the Vietnam photo. It might be in the future, we don't know. But just because other stuff exists (as per the page you linked, actually) doesn't mean this one should exist. I am all for keeping only an article about the photo, merging the boxer and photographer articles, as long as the photo is considered notable by other users. Bedivere ( talk) 11:11, 31 January 2023 (UTC) reply

    Request to closing admin (or indeed anyone) for advice on the circular problem I'm faced with. This was an event article. The comment above suggests agreement that there is potential for an event article. But an editor unilaterally changed the original version of the article we are discussing here away from Killing of Mykhailo Korenovsky to this current title. Then people said he is not notable, but the photograph is, so I create the photograph article. Now it is suggested that the photograph is not notable, but the event that created it is. That's full circle. The range of opinions here seem all be editors who think something is notable, maybe the person, maybe the photograph, maybe the event. I wouldn't mind much if we could reach consensus on which one is and direct everything there, but I fear the theme here is people focussing on what they want to delete, implying something should be kept, but without consensus on what, please can we all agree not to delete everything?
    Maybe this would have been a more productive discussion if the three simultaneous deletion discussions were done on the one page. CT55555( talk) 00:01, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    To clarify, I think nothing and no one related to this photograph/event is notable and the topic falls into WP:NOTNEWS. Maybe it will become notable over time - who knows - but it isn't now. Creating multiple articles to try and get this covered on WP doesn't seem very productive. Vladimir.copic ( talk) 00:06, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    Of course, three articles about the same thing are more than needed. One, if any, would suffice and that's the kitchen photo article. Bedivere ( talk) 00:09, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    For the record, one is a detailed biography of a photographer with years of press coverage for about four notable events. One is the biography of a man, that I do agree was better suited as an event article. One is about a photograph, that I was encouraged to create , earlier in the AFD. I see overlap between the event and the photograph article, the suggestion that Yan Dobronosov is only notable for one photograph, when reliable sources have documented his years-long interesting career, I find difficult to leave unchallenged. CT55555( talk) 00:21, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    I did encourage you to create the kitchen photo article and have not suggested it to be deleted, but others may find it is a possibility. I do think Dobronosov is not sufficiently notable and as I have previously told you in their own AFD, we do not have to agree on this. Bedivere ( talk) 01:56, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    Sorry for my error. You proposed to delete the photo, not the article about the photo. CT55555( talk) 02:04, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply
    I did propose the photo for deletion before the article was created (and where inclusion is valid), because I don't think the fair use rationales for their use on the boxing coach and the photographer article are correct. It will not be deleted (as long as the photo article remains live). Bedivere ( talk) 02:12, 13 February 2023 (UTC) reply

Relisting comment: Sorry to relist again but I'm not seeing a consensus except for a majority of editors who think some part of this event/photo/person is notable.

  • Comment I've been following this discussion and I'll admit I have mixed feelings about the various articles that have been mentioned. I really don't think that Korenovsky has done anything that would merit a standalone article--I see no SNG that is met nor do I think the coverage of him meets WP:GNG. All deaths are tragic, but most fall under WP:NOTNEWS. There have been plenty of pictures from the invasion of Ukraine which generate a range of emotions, but I don't know which of them will stand the test of time in terms of historical significance--which is what I think WP:NEVENT is about.
