Draftify - feels similar to the recent discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Atari 2600 prototype games, which ended with a consensus to send it to the draft space. This sort of list can be done right. But not like this. Needs sourcing, which can be hard to come by with a subject so old like this. It could be improved, but it also has no business existing in the main space as is. Sergecross73 msg me 23:23, 30 March 2024 (UTC) reply
That was games not released, so totally unrelated to the situation here. Category:Video game lists by platform shows how many list like this exist. Any references can be found in the 76 game articles linked to. Dream Focus 03:31, 1 April 2024 (UTC) reply
That's completely irrelevant. Whether or not the games were released was not a factor in that discussion. The point was, it was a valid list premise, but couldn't be published as its current form because of a complete lack of sourcing. I dont understand how you missed the point so badly... Sergecross73 msg me 13:09, 1 April 2024 (UTC) reply
I already added some references simply by looking at the articles linked to and copying them over. As I clearly stated, the 76 games articles linked to have references confirming they exist. The many other lists like this don't have references for every single item. If you wish to delete any entry without a reference and/or their own article, then you still have 76 things listed, so its a valid list. Dream Focus 14:38, 1 April 2024 (UTC) reply
I'd say roughly 75% of the entries don't have an article to check for sources though, which still leaves you with an article that's either largely unsourced (or wildly incomplete if you remove all unsourced entries.) Still feels like a prime candidate for the draft space... Sergecross73 msg me 15:13, 1 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Draftify as stated above, whilst somewhat lazy of me, the response in the Atari 2600 discussion is identically relevant here: The list is a valid one with a clear category and not inherently without merit. But it's just unverifiable based on the lack of sourcing, the ambiguous scope, and non-notability of the items themselves. Put it this way - if it were a list, the immediate question would be "How do you know these are eligible?" In this case, there is one source, but that isn't going to be enough to WP:VERIFY the list. More work is needed. ( talk) 05:26, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply
Draftify for the reasons stated by ＶＲＸＣＥＳ. Rillington ( talk) 10:45, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep - It is a relevant list of a relevant system, not some random prototype. NPI WOL ( talk) 10:54, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Yes, but you have to WP:VERIFY that the list is correct. It may not be as arbitrary as the other example, but relying on a single source for this list is putting a very strong faith in that source being a correct and complete list. So really the article is no more reliable than just going to the external source. The best course is to either find more sources, or draftify it until someone does so. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ ( talk) 11:06, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply

(You're supposed to identify yourself as the article creator.) Even ignoring Wikipedia policies that make this not okay, the list, as is, is completely unnecessary. You just stole another websites list and put it in Wikipedia. People should be going to see their website to see their list. It's entirely redundant. A list of these games is possible...but absolutely not like this. Sergecross73 msg me 13:36, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply

I also want this article kept but I agree with ＶＲＸＣＥＳ, and would also add that the article needs independent references as well before it can be returned to mainspace. Therefore I feel that draftifying the article is the right course of action at this point.

One option might be for the list to be a combination of notable games and games which can be verified with an independent reference. Rillington ( talk) 01:51, 1 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Nominator comment: @ NPI WOL: Could you say where you source this list from? I think policy is to Wikipedia:Revision deletion copyright violations, but we may keep the entries that can be verified by the added sources. We could redirect a redirect to the existing category as long as the list is in draft if that helps with concerns? IgelRM ( talk) 07:16, 3 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep Category:Commodore_16_and_Plus/4_games there are 76 games that have articles, so valid navigational list. Lists are always more useful than categories, since they allow more information. Dream Focus 03:28, 1 April 2024 (UTC) reply
This doesn't address the severe sourcing issues raised. Sergecross73 msg me 13:10, 1 April 2024 (UTC) reply
I mentioned that above already. But I also went and found that MobyGames has all these games listed, with covers and screenshots proving they exist, and links to reviews done in old magazines about them that also prove they exist. The old magazines linked to are backed up on archive.org. Since no discussion on MobyGames being considered a reliable source has taken place in over a decade, I started a discussion for that at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Video_games/Sources#MobyGames_owned_by_Atari_now. Dream Focus 15:09, 1 April 2024 (UTC) reply
For those of you not clicking on that link, please note that, as of my writing this, the suggestion of using MobyGames as a source was unanimously rejected by the Wikiproject members. Sergecross73 msg me 13:32, 2 April 2024 (UTC) reply
You and the four people who participated are against it. Dream Focus 15:23, 2 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Yes, correct. You suggested it. 5 people opposed. 0 supported. Sergecross73 msg me 15:49, 2 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Keep Following the addition of external references I am now changing my vote from draftify to keep. Rillington ( talk) 06:47, 2 April 2024 (UTC) reply
An editor sourcing 6 out of 900+ entries was enough for you to decide incubating in the draft space was not necessary and is now ready to be published? Sergecross73 msg me 13:29, 2 April 2024 (UTC) reply
The 75 articles linked to have references that can be copied over, and there are old magazines archived that review other things. No one is going to work on the article if its in draft space. AFD determine if an article should exist, not judging the current state it is in. Dream Focus 15:25, 2 April 2024 (UTC) reply
20 references in the reflist now. Very easy to do. Dream Focus 15:49, 2 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Articles that are technically plausible, but wildly underdeveloped/undersourced, are the very reason why we have the draft space. There is no rush here. As I noted above, the article creator largely just copy/pasted this list from another website. The info will still be available on the internet if it's sent to draft. Sergecross73 msg me 15:52, 2 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Yes because it is clear to me that the references now found, and added, means that the contents of this list can be independently verified. This means that the article is now suitable for inclusion on Wikipedia, and now does not need to be relegated to draftspace. Rillington ( talk) 00:55, 3 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Comment I found a physical museum that has old games in its collection. https://www.computinghistory.org.uk/sec/1973/Commodore-C16-Plus-4/ That proves they exist and basic information about them. They have 181 games in their collection for this system. Other museums surely exist out there as well to reference the rest. The current list has 546 games total on it. Dream Focus 07:13, 3 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Nominator comment: I don't think there was much doubt that the games exist. A Wikipedia article relying on their database not be in interest of the museum? It appears to only list a game's cover, format, publisher, author and release year. IgelRM ( talk) 07:40, 3 April 2024 (UTC) reply
76 of the games currently have links to their own articles. So that's enough for the list article to exist. As for the other games listed, they are there to make the list complete. If there is no doubt they exist, no reason to remove any of them from the list. Dream Focus 07:58, 3 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Note: This discussion has been included in the Article Rescue Squadron's list of content for rescue consideration. Dream Focus 07:17, 3 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Keep. This is a perfectly valid navigational list. The argument for deletion/draftification is that many of the entries are unsourced, but "was this a Commodore 16 game or not" is extremely easy to verify. Items that fail verification can simply be removed. There's no reason to delete or even to draftify this. -- asilvering ( talk) 03:51, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep - This list is complete, it has historical encyclopaedic value to anyone with an interest in retro videogames. Not only that, but games for a specific console are a widely discussed topic as a group. My question then to inclusion criteria is whether sources do likely exist. I did a spot check on some random ones on this list, and I'm satisfied that okayish sources do generally exist. For example, picking a random one from the list "Astro Plumber" I found https://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/47327/Astro%20Plumber/ and nothing else after some real hard looking. I think this article is valid, but should adopt a WP:CSC of requiring citation. I'm happy to move the current page content onto the talk page after this AfD closes. BrigadierG ( talk) 00:39, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep: Needs additional citations for verification, but meets WP:NLIST as video games for a console are often discussed together. Can also serve as a navigational list. WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP StreetcarEnjoyer (talk) 00:47, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply

WP:CCI deals with WP:COPYVIO stuff, if that's what you're asking. Diannaa would probably be a good go-to Admin on it too. Sergecross73 msg me 13:37, 8 April 2024 (UTC) reply

The list contains no creative content, so it doesn't qualify for copyright protection. — Diannaa ( talk) 22:16, 8 April 2024 (UTC) reply
@ Diannaa: There is database right but I suppose this is more of a moral case here? Thanks IgelRM ( talk) 17:22, 10 April 2024 (UTC) reply
We don't re-create a database; we only offer a list of products. — Diannaa ( talk) 19:01, 10 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Title, Genre, Release date, and Language are not a copyright issue. That information is on the game box. Same with Compilation, this just a list of products and what they contained. Where did the person who made the original database get the information from? Did they find a copy of every single game and copy the information from the boxes they came in? Dream Focus 11:30, 11 April 2024 (UTC) reply
All you have to do is look at it. Only a single "source" was present at the time he created and published the article. It contains the same columns in the same order, and it was largely created on one massive edit. It doesn't take a genius to see he clearly plagiarized/ripped off that database website.

(Mushy Yank) 20:46, 8 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Delete since subject clearly cannot clear the notability criteria set down by WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR. Suggestions to the opposite effect are variants of "she's just notable", "come on, there must be sources!" and predictions of future success. We need "multiple notable films, television shows, etc" or "unique, innovative contributions." Wikipedia is not a directory of actors. For completist, exhaustive lists one does not look in Wikipedia. - The Gnome ( talk) 15:08, 11 April 2024 (UTC) reply
You have 2 notable web series in which she plays significant roles (lead/main)....but apparently you haven't read that part. - My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 19:55, 11 April 2024 (UTC) reply

For what little it's worth, I never offer my opinion in an AfD without preparation. On the substance of your protest: She has been once and once only in a somewhat notable creation where her role is secondary to the two protagonists. To bring it home more clearly, she's not qualified for a leading role award in it. The other appearance concerns Special Ops 1.5: The Himmat Story where she has a truly small role. And there are actors in it with more filmic appearances who rightly do not qualify for a Wikipedia article. Apparently, you are confusing significant roles with insignificant ones. But we carry on. - The Gnome ( talk) 20:27, 11 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Am I confusing significant with insignificant? Oh, that's really bad then. I'll think about it when recounting the 7 occurrences of her character's name in the plot. - My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 23:11, 11 April 2024 (UTC) reply

AfDs for this article:

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

WP:BLP of a musician, not properly sourced as passing WP:NMUSIC. The attempted notability claim here is that she was a non-winning competitor on American Idol, which is not an automatic notability freebie in and of itself -- obviously a person can lose an Idol series and still go on to accomplish other notable things in their music career anyway, but people don't automatically qualify for articles just for competing on Idol per se -- but the only other thing here is that an independent album exists for sale on CDBaby, which isn't a notability clincher either.
And for footnotes we've got one directly affiliated primary source, one directory entry, one glancing namecheck of her existence in an Idol episode recap that isn't otherwise about her, and one deadlinked piece of "local young woman ends run on reality show" in her hometown local media, which isn't enough to get her over WP:GNG all by itself if it's the only piece of proper media coverage about her that she has.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to have more noteworthy achievements, and better sourcing for them, than just competing in a reality show. Bearcat ( talk) 21:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:
People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.
- If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

Cunard ( talk) 21:47, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Alexis Gomez competed in season 14 of the television show American Idol, which ran from 7 January to 13 May 2015. She received significant coverage in reliable sources in 2013, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2022. This demonstrates she has received sustained coverage outside of her appearance on the show. Cunard ( talk) 21:47, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

And precisely which of those quotes suggests that any of said coverage exists in any context that would satisfy any NMUSIC criterion? GNG isn't a raw number of footnotes, and requires the footnotes to exist in noteworthy contexts — which is why, for example, a member of parliament passes GNG on just one hit of verification that they're actually a member of parliament, whereas a city councillor can fail GNG on a couple of dozen run of the mill hits of purely local coverage that doesn't establish nationalizing significance: because GNG test sources for the context of what they're covering the person for, and not just the raw number of hits that it's possible to show. So precisely which of those hits exist in notable contexts, considering that what you've shown is entirely local coverage in and around her own hometown and none of it establishes passage of any NMUSIC criterion? Bearcat ( talk) 02:22, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply

These quotes demonstrate that Alexis Gomez has received significant coverage in reliable sources. Alexis Gomez meets Wikipedia:Notability (music)#Criteria for musicians and ensembles, which says:
Musicians or ensembles (this category includes bands, singers, rappers, orchestras, DJs, musical theatre groups, instrumentalists, etc.) may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria.
1. Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself.
The guideline does not require "nationalizing significance". Alexis Gomez also meets Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria and Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline. Cunard ( talk) 03:53, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep When this was AfDed last time, I voted for redirecting the article to American Idol season 14. But I was on the fence about changing my vote to "Keep" on the basis of the sources that Cunard had found. Those sources show that in the years since Gomez was on Idol, she has continued to recieve news coverage, some related to her role as an opening act for multiple high profile artists. I do think that this article topic is right on the edge of notability and could be redirected, but it bothers me that articles related to American Idol finalists are often AfDed again and again even when previous AfDs close with consensus to "Keep". I respect the outcome of the previous AfD and feel that sources have been provided illustrating enough sustained coverage to more or less meet minimum notability requirements. -- Jpcase ( talk) 02:27, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Keep GNG is met, RS coverage is sufficient. No topic must meet both the GNG and an SNG: if the GNG is met, a topic is notable even if the relevant SNG is not met. Jclemens ( talk) 07:25, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Weak keep Reviewing Cunard's list, I think source 2 is on the line, and sources 4 and 8 on paper meet GNG. The rest I feel I can safely argue are not sufficient. I am sympathetic to Bearcat's arguments regarding most coverage being local, but I cannot find a policy for me to use to disqualify any sources provided by Cunard on that basis. Because of the caveat of "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" (emphasis mine) from Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, I believe GNG is met when combining all sources together, but just barely. Because of this, WP:NMUSIC is irrelevant. — Sirdog ( talk) 04:32, 8 April 2024 (UTC) reply

- Regarding "unless they have had widespread success with their band and touring", that is Wikipedia:Notability (music)#Criteria for musicians and ensembles #4.

However, she meets WP:SINGER #1, which says, "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself".

Delete, Either version of the article is just bad. The recent version was just a mix of contributor blogs (forbes/nasdaq), press releases (cbs42), and a junk PR site (dreamersdoers). All of it looked like paid placement. The author also attmpted to used a blackhat SEO blog associated with the Kivo PR farm, but was prevented by the blocklist. I won't even comment about the nature of the business that was being promoted there. The prior article, which was just restored by the author, has only three sources:

honaronline.ir - does not seem mention the subject of the article, but maybe the translation software is butchering it
dejavufashionstudio.com - subjects personal site, which was defunct by 2016 and the old copies at archive.org are pretty messed up
modefasl.ir - seems to be a very brief interview with the subject by the organizers of a fashion show?

The external link given has a longer interview, but very little on details about the actual subject of the article. I've looked for other sources, and see a large amount of paid places in the usual SEO sources. That makes it hard to find anything organic. Obviously, it's very difficult to search for Persian media, so I may have missed something. Sam Kuru (talk) 01:54, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply

External link is from the Iranian Labour News Agency, an independent agency with considerable authority. It contains numerous mentions of Zahra Yarahmadi's impact. Other links are older but still mention Zahra's impact, including honaronline.ir.

It is worth keeping the article live to highlight Zahra Yarahmadi's impact on Iranian fashion. Organic mentions are hard to find because of the language barrier and the old dates when the impact was made. Viictoria14 ( talk) 17:48, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep article. The addition of 8 more links provides additional evidence of Zahra Yarahmadi's impact on Iranian fashion. However, it's important to acknowledge that meeting notability standards with articles dating back to 2013 is challenging. This article isn't meant for business promotion, especially since the business no longer exists. Rather, it aims to preserve the legacy of a fashion designer. Once again, upon analyzing the 8 additional links recently added, we can see that there is a range of sources, including national Iranian media resources and foreign ones, such as those from Sweden. 88.118.177.59 ( talk) 20:15, 12 April 2024 (UTC) reply

This is the only contribution of 88.118.177.59 to Wikipedia.

Forensics on sources:

We have, in the "References" section, three inaccessible links, here, here, and here.

Under "External links," which formally do not work as sources, we have interviews, which, as well, do not qualify as a supporting source for notability, such as this, this, and this; this advertorial; one routine news listing; and this item about the Dejavu Art Cultural Institute.

Wikipedia is not the place for legacies. We either have notability-supporting sources, or we don't. This is not a directory nor some repository for any kind of information. As a matter of fact, it is not the host of haphazardly collected information, no matter how ostensibly noble the purpose. - The Gnome ( talk) 14:02, 13 April 2024 (UTC) reply

The result was keep‎. This is not casting aspersions but don't nominate an article for deletion because "I don't think he really meets notability guidelines". There is a lot of uncertainty in a statement like that and "he doesn't strike me as notable" opens the door to editors who DO think he strikes them as notable. I'm not singling out this AFD because I see this a lot in AFDLand but if you aren't sure there is notability present or you haven't done a thorough BEFORE, then a nomination for deletion isn't called for. Really. Liz ^{Read!

There may be a case for an article on this topic (there probably is) but this is an unmitigated mess that really isn't focusing on the issues and is just a spam list of songs.

I don't know why you think we might not be able to keep a huge amount of properly sourced content.

Most of the sourced content that already exists is [Person] released [Song], with at most half a sentence of explanation which IMO, fails WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Allan Nonymous ( talk) 20:08, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply
One way to apply WP:TNT would be to re-cast the article as " List of music inspired by the Israel–Hamas war", and include music from both the Israeli side, as well as from the other side. 47.148.126.19 ( talk) 20:11, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply
That might be a good idea, actually. I'm more than willing to withdraw this nom, move the article and create a draft with the sources Toughpigs suggested.

In addition, the artist appeared on the most listened to lists in Israel The song was a hit on streaming and entered at number 33 on the Mako chart. At its peak, it reached number 26 on the charts. In the creation of this article I believe it, seeing the rapper Shabjdeed who does not offer much notoriety but maintains an entry on wiki without any problems.

I did see the Hebrew articles you cited, the problem is that this gets us to only two sources covering the guy, where three is generally preferred, given that one of the sources (Hashikma, April 5 2024), seems to be an interview and thus is not eligible for establishing notability. In particular, the two sources appear to be local, (although the Mako article is very deep, so that may ameliorate some concerns). The remaining sources mostly seem to consist of tangential coverage, coverage of his one song, or both. Even the articles here, that do contribute to notability seem to do so in the context of his song (Haarezt, Mako). Allan Nonymous ( talk) 12:34, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Same as where the article on the song Harbu Darbu by the singers Ness and Stilla is found, in addition the article Noam's Song 2 has reliable sources such as https://www.fox35orlando.com/news/19-year-old- israeli-survives-rave-massacre-hopes-to-move-to-florida (Fox) and https://www.timesofisrael.com/amid-thrum-of-war-popular-songs-of-rage-and-resilience -become-post-oct-7-soundtrack/ (Times of Israel). Now, if the article requires improvements, it can be done without going to the point of eliminating it from the roots, of course there may be errors but the errors are corrected.

Delete: I stand by my endorsement of the prior PROD: this stub is little more than a remnant of the looser inclusion "standards" of 2009. You simply can't create — or even keep — a stub based mainly if not entirely on databases (and to some extent even other FCC records) today (and any insistence otherwise is no longer policy or guideline-based, to the extent it ever was). The PROD was contested to propose a redirect or merger to the list of radio stations in Kansas, but its "defunct" section does not currently include this station, and I don't really think it would be truly worth it to change that.

Seems like a UPE as the creator also created the article on its owner, Luca Schnetzler which is also at AfD. This is why it has been draftified to go through AfC [7] but it is again directly put back to mainspace by the creator. Since, the notability seems on the borderline and the references looks like paid placements so AfD would be the best place for it. Bhivuti45 ( talk) 09:41, 30 March 2024 (UTC) reply

I think the subject is, unfortunately, notable, though the fairly clear COI/UPE violation is worrying. Going through the first few sources, the BBC article is not sigcov, but the NYT and two TechCrunch articles definitely are, and the Verge and FT articles probably as well. The Yahoo Finance articles are probably not, as they read more like press releases/statistics reports. The Fortune article might be GNG-level for the article on Schnetzler himself, but as an interview is not good for this article. Overall, that's 3-5 sources that count towards the GNG, which means ~~the subject is likely notable~~. The biggest weakness is that the article does not give a claim to notability, but it one could easily be added – the newspaper articles focus on the fact that the IP has been monetized in the real world to boost the value of the NFTs, which is interesting. For a closing admin, this is a keep !vote on the sources alone, but a neutral !vote because of the likely COI violation. If an uninvolved editor were to WP:TNT and use the sources to write a new article from scratch, I would be writing a clear keep !vote. Toadspike ( talk) 10:46, 30 March 2024 (UTC) reply
After reading the comments below, I think there is a valid rationale for discounting the NYT source as not independent, since meeting NCORP requires more attention to independence than usual. I'm not experienced with the WP:TECHCRUNCH rules, but it seems that these two articles were written by a "real journalist" and are not just blog entries by random netizens, which means they should be OK. The FT article, on second glance, doesn't seem like SIGCOV to me.

This leaves two TechCrunch articles and one Verge article to meet the GNG/NCORP. That's 2 or 3 sources, depending on how you count. I will strike my earlier opinion and say the subject is likely not notable – it would take another solid source to convince me that we should keep this UPE around.

Just because a topic has been mentioned on well known media doesn't make it notable by default.

Keep. I think it's important to realise that while this article is terribly written, it can be saved, because there is SIGCOV and a multitude of reliable sources available online. I'm not interested in trying to revive it only for it to get deleted, but if it is kept I think all it needs is a bit of TLC and it'll be perfectly fine.

Delete. The last four refs are completely trivial mentions that do not support the puffy claims at all ("prominent figure", "plethora of studio albums", "wide-ranging list of clients"). The brief LA Weekly articles do not seem to mention him. Salem-news just mentions him as a speaker with no other information or context. Searching independently is complicated by an actor with the same name, but I can see several gushing articles in known blackhat SEO sources that mention this person; that kind of PR makes it challenging to find anything reliable and organic.

I will rewrite the article and find better sources to cite. There are a few actors with his name, which makes it more difficult to find credible secondary sources. His music and movie credits are easy to find on Discogs, Allmusic, and IMDb, but I don't view those sites other than IMDB as very credible. I should have included that he was captain chronic from the Kottonmouth Kings when I originally wrote the article. It was late, and I was tired when I wrote it. I was explaining the Kottonmouth Kings and Kingmaker to a friend when I tried to look for him on Wikipedia under any of his stage names, but I could not find him.

Delete: complete lack of SIGCOV both with the references already in the article, and from a quick scour of the internet. When you take a closer look, the provided references don't actually prove the claims made in the article, so either they are redundant or have been updated since. Let's take a deeper dive:

Ref 1 doesn't even mention him by name, only connecting the band with the record company in passing.

Ref 2 lists Moseley as the speaker at an event, but gives no information about him, and mentions him only in passing.

Ref 3 fails to mention Moseley, or backup the article's claim in any way - it does not say he executive produces it, or that it is acclaimed.

Ref 4 mentions in passing that he is the producer of the album that the article is talking about, but nothing more. It doesn't say that he's been prominent, or released any number of albums.

Ref 5 is essentially the same: a news article covering this event, with only a passing reference to Moseley.

Ref 6 says that a given artist is signed to a given record company, without mentioning Moseley. Also, one client signing cannot backup the claim that 'He has a wide-ranging list of clients signed to his company', or that it's his company in the first place.

Ref 7 is essentially the same as 4 and 5: a news article covering this event, with only a passing reference to Moseley.

Hopefully, this explains how the article has no backed up claims, and after scouring the internet for 10 minutes, I can't find anything that backs up these claims myself. The refs themselves do not provide substantial enough coverage to cut down the article's content to referenced claims, as there are none. Thanks, JacobTheRox ( talk) 10:50, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Delete per WP:NOTINHERITED. I'm not seeing how his work for a band, or in films, makes him notable. Producers, even "executive" ones, are not automatically notable.

Comment: I was tagged because I technically started this article by converting a redirect into a stub. At the time, it was called WKRP-LP and redirected to WDDN-LP, which had become misleading due to call sign changes, so I needed to correct the record. The station’s only claim to fame, as far as I knew, was that it took the call sign “ WKRP”, which is the subject of much (fictional) media lore. Nowadays, we’d probably just add a blurb to a disambiguation page and call it a day. Since then, the station has been renamed and WKRP-LP has been taken by an unrelated station that doesn’t even acknowledge this one in a hatnote. I don’t have any particular nostalgia for this article, but I’ll take this opportunity to thank Wcquidditch, Markman1, and Tvstationfan101 for correcting and expanding the article.

Merge with List of television stations in Tennessee#LPTV stations: the newer a television station is, the less likely it is that the significant coverage we now require exists. I'm only proposing a merge because the current programming information is currently missing at the list (which still reflects a previous silence); in spirit I'm really proposing a redirect as an {{ R to list}} and an alternative to deletion.

Delete: Functionally identical to an insanely expensive single-car accident.

Hello CycloneYoris, thank you for all your contributions to Wikipedia. This incident was covered by the New York Post and the associated press, other notable incidents like the 2024 Haneda Airport runway collision (which occurred January 2nd 2024) aren't really covered past January either. The pilot indicated that the aircraft suffered a malfunction, we really won't know what changes in operations, mechanical components, or procedures result from crashes after the investigation is released anyway.

Why do we even have this topic? Earthquakes in New York are rare. Seems like WP:NOTNEWS. But even most of the sources used in this article aren't really specific to New York earthquakes. We don't even have an article about seismicity of San Francisco which probably would be more appropriate.I could see incorporating some of this into an article about Earthquakes in the eastern United States, but we don't even have that.

I think San Francisco is mostly covered at the articles for the named faults because it has named faults. The geological dynamics at the transform plate boundary are different than what is seen in the Northeast, where the pressure from divergent plate dynamics causes different patterns of earthquakes. The earthquakes in the Northeast are not less serious, they just don't always occur in the same place. I can focus the article more on New York specifically but I'm not seeing a reason to delete it. NeonSpectre ( talk) 02:06, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

While an article could be created for today's earthquake I think that may be a little NOTNEWS-y. The article was moved to this title today. The previous title was better. Other titles might be even better. It includes the historic New York earthquakes about which much has been written, and the historic earthquakes that were felt in New York. I don't really care that we don't have an article about San Francisco, but you can write one if you want to. NeonSpectre ( talk) NeonSpectre ( talk) 01:55, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

I think my point here was missed entirely, it was not that we need an article about San Francisco earthquakes, it was why does New York gets its own article when we could actually have a legitimate article about the earthquakes in the eastern Untied States which would be notable have seems to have plenty of sources, unlike this where its just using bits and pieces of other sources that are focused on a broader topic or just news articles about a particular event.-- Rusf10 ( talk) 02:35, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

I have already started the process of splitting the general content about the eastern United States and focusing the article on New York ~~City~~State.

Keep. Personally, an article for "Earthquakes in the eastern United States" sounds like a great idea. But it does not currently exist. This article may be thin and perhaps could use a clean-up, but this is a situation where the issue is not that we've got an article for a specific locale, but that we DON'T have a better extant overarching article, or one for other regions (as mentioned, such as San Francisco). DarkSide830 ( talk) 05:28, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Keep. This is a two-pronged issue, but I do think this meets the GNG, independent of the existence (or lack thereof) of articles about the seismicity of other regions.

There are scholarly sources like this, this, this, this, or this, in addition to resources like this. This doesn't even include the news and magazine articles that address the subject. If you're talking about seismicity in New York state, the reason for the AFD makes even less sense, as probably hundreds of scholarly sources exist about earthquakes in New York (e.g. the western part of the state).
Furthermore, I don't see how an article on the seismicity of NYC, or earthquakes in NYC, precludes the creation of an article about earthquakes in the San Francisco Bay Area or even the eastern U.S. Even if there wasn't enough material to warrant a separate article about NYC earthquakes/seismicity, it still does not prevent the scope of this article from being expanded to cover the eastern U.S.

Keep: While I understand the recent news of an earthquake that happened not too far from here, the recent spur in attention regarding to the earthquake may help improve the article.

Keep. The rarity of earthquakes in the NYC area and thus explanations for their occurrence have been the focus of numerous reliable sources (e.g., those presented by Epicgenius) that would satisfy GNG. Such an article would also provide a place to discuss earthquakes that may not be individually notable (to not run afoul of WP:NOTNEWS for each one), and could readily be expanded in scope to include the northeastern US if the NYC area is too specific. The nomination statement also appears to rely somewhat heavily on WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, and scope and sourcing issues are better addressed with cleanup than deletion. ^Complex/_Rational 21:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Jan Snedeker

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

Fails WP:BIO notability tests. This man seems to be of interest to his descendants (because he is the earliest known person with the family name), but he has not received significant coverage in published sources and there is not indication of his being important outside the family or a very local context (the article's best assertion for his notability is that he was one of the several founders of a colonial village). The three books cited in the article are a book (probably self-published) of family history and genealogy and two books of the history of the area where he lived. Before starting this AfD, I found online copies of the two history books, identified places where his name was mentioned, and added citations to the article. I found only peripheral mentions of him. He is also covered on the genealogical site WikiTree at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Snedeker-9 in an article that has far more information and reference citations than the Wikipedia article, but nothing I see there indicates significant published coverage or demonstrates his importance to people who are not his descendants.

Comment. Reading earlier through Google Books, I saw a lot of mentions under four different names. There were one or more persons named after him but this was easy enough to separate. I agree with Orlady that the length of coverage is not a strength. The cumulative coverage, continued interest, and the fact there are no BLP concerns for this 17th-century historical figure do work in the article's favor. Also, while the descendants and other regional history buffs seem to pay attention to this figure (as already mentioned by Orlady), they do not try to make him into something he wasn't as we sometimes see. It's a healthy interest. I am leaning keep and would appreciate it if user:Ruud Buitelaar could also take a look, as Dutch and history. gidonb ( talk) 05:33, 30 March 2024 (UTC) reply
Reply. For the record, much of what you see in the current version of the article is content that I added to give the stub article a fighting chance. In the article version I found, the article claimed he was one of 3 founders of Midwout (a "fact" that was not supported by the histories cited; it appears to me that he was merely one of the three men whose names somebody remembered), and the main thrust of the article was on the meaning of the name Midwout. That's content that arguably could be moved into the article about Midwout. Orlady ( talk) 15:42, 30 March 2024 (UTC) reply

Thank you @ Gidonb for inviting me to the discussion. I think @ Orlady did an amazing job researching the subject.

I'd be more sympathetic to these articles if they were maintainable over time, but experience shows that they're not. You'd need a small army of NBA editors to deal with all the little details that need updating. Rankings and records easily go out of date; for example, Nikola Jokic has surpassed many of Carmelo's Nuggets accomplishments, but that's not reflected in this article. There are some things that Wikipedia will never be able to do as well as sites like basketball-reference.com.
These articles might work if they were limited to awards and truly significant records, but in most cases, we should be able to make room for such facts in the main article. (Of course, the main Carmelo Anthony page is super-bloated itself; the level of detail per season is higher than what you'd find at Michael Jordan. That's because people wrote Carmelo's career section while his career was ongoing, rather than taking a retrospective approach.) Zagalejo ( talk) 06:47, 3 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Comment I am very conflicted on this. List of career achievements by Carmelo Anthony#Career-highs is interesting, does not fit on the main page, and never requires updating. I only said Delete because Dwyane Wade's page was deleted which I do not necessarily agree with but for the purpose of fairness I say this should as well. If criteria was established as to what should go on these pages and what should not then I think it could work for the Top 75 all-time. IMO if player is arguably Top 10 (or Top 75?) all-time he qualifies for a page. Players outside Top 75 do not deserve their own. Here is the NBA’s 75th anniversary list, Dwight is not on it but Carmelo, Chris Paul, and Dwyane are on it. If any need updating, I can assists with that. WP:NOEFFORT is not a good enough reason to remove all of this time-consuming volunteer work.

Well, I don't mind the career highs table (assuming the dead link can be replaced). But I'd still rather not encourage these articles. As a data point, look at List of career achievements by Russell Westbrook. That has been tagged for a while, and the career stats table at the top is obviously out of date, but no one has responded. I don't think most volunteers have the patience to work on these articles. It's tedious and unfulfilling work. I think we just need to be realistic. It would be better for people to focus on the main player articles, rather than ultra-detailed spinouts. You probably could fit the career high table in the main Carmelo Anthony article if we tighten up the prose there. Zagalejo ( talk) 02:57, 4 April 2024 (UTC) reply
I get it, but it's unfortunate for the creators of these articles who expect other editors to follow their lead. I think we should aim to keep these articles for those in the Top 10 all-time discussion which can vary quite a bit from source to source. Carmelo, Russell Westbrook, Chris Paul, Dwyane Wade, Dennis Rodman are not in there as far as I can see. Here is ESPN's Top 10 rankings and The Athletic's. Since the Top 10 talk is such a focus of emphasis for the media, I think ultra-detailed articles are relevant to the large audience trying to understand who is right in their "hot takes".

Delete, fails WP:GNG. There's some game guide stuff out there, [23] [24] [25], but like a lot of mobile games, it suffers from the problem that mobile games aren't extensively reviewed. ~ A412 ^talk! 01:09, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Delete. Fails GNG, no sources are RS nor count towards notability. Only non-primary source lists no author, holds no significant coverage, and is not an RS. There exist some (read: minimal, scant) possible sources online, but ultimately these are guides and walk-throughs rather than significant coverage.

Delete I agree with everyone here as it does fail WP:GNG. Don't even get me started on the reception. MKsLifeInANutshell ( talk) 05:26, 7 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep Solar Smash is a really popular game, and this article needs to be fixed, but I do not think it should be deleted in my opinion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arhan D ( talk • contribs) 04:13, 11 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Arhan, you may like to take a look at the general notability guideline, and particularly rebuttals against something being popular making an article notable to understand the issues raised in this discussion. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ ( talk) 05:21, 11 April 2024 (UTC) reply

I have carried out WP:BEFORE on this previously unfootnoted article about a musician and church leader, and added two reviews of one of his albums. I have not found other coverage to add. I am not sure if one of the publications, CCM Magazine, is a reliable source, as its About says "The information in the post above may have been formatted to suit this website, but is not necessarily material originally created by, or exclusive to CCMmagazine.com", and no author is given. In any case, based on two reviews I do not think that the subject of the article is notable under WP:GNG or WP:NMUSIC. Tacyarg ( talk) 00:13, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Delete: all I can find are his website and various podcasts or streams featuring him. Good at promoting himself, I don't see musical notability though. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:00, 6 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Delete Can't find enough reliable coverage and available sources don't seem proper. Bradelykooper ( talk) 08:41, 10 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Delete per WP:BLP. Whenever there is a BLP with controversy over political or religion, I want to see very significant coverage. Does not pass based on WP:NBAND, without evidence of touring or charting. Bearian ( talk) 19:05, 10 April 2024 (UTC) reply
