Keep There are two Wikipedia article entries on him with the fr WP being the most developed. There is a mix of journal, newspapers and magazines sources with reviews which seem valid, which makes him notable. I don't mind adding the dude to my todo list, get it done sometime this year.

Blackrock, Washington

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

Declined PROD. Non-notable location. I can find several passing mentions to a "Blackrock district" or "Blackrock lands" in local press, mostly from the 1900s and 1910s, nothing more recent than 1939. But all of these are trivial mentions about the daily happenings of some John Doe "of Blackrock district" as rural newspapers often used to publish. This does not ever seem to have been a "community", though, and no other information was found; the coordinates locate to empty grasslands, with a small "Black Rock Cemetery" nearby. This must have been a place significant to some people, but we have no record of it and therefore can't have an article; fails WP:GEOLAND because it wasn't legally-recognized and fails WP:GNG for lack of SIGCOV.

Delete This is one of the farming districts. There is one single passing mention of it as a town. Here: https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-yakima-herald-blackrock-town/140746918/. All other mentions either don't specify what it is, or they are "Blackrock District", "Blackrock Valley" and a few other similar descriptions. These are the districts in 1909 https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-yakima-herald-seattleaypeyakimacou/79192547/ see the top right. This is example of how it is otherwise referred to. https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-yakima-herald-farming-districts/140747823/ There is not enough RS to write an article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by James.folsom ( talk • contribs) 2024-02-11T21:52:48 (UTC)
I came at it from the other direction and tried to find the Blackrock Creek documented. I couldn't even get contemporary documentation for it in Yakima County. The Washington State Geologist only recorded a Blackrock Creek in a completely different county. Uncle G ( talk) 03:17, 12 February 2024 (UTC) reply
delete Someone at GNIS liked that place names book, because here we have another example where it is the source. A very early topo shows "Black Rock" as a label somewhat north of the cemetery, but these early maps don't show buildings so it's impossible to figure what was really there. Later the GNIS people assumed that the cemetery was in town, which is not usually the case in these western rural areas. The topos also record the area as "Black Rock Valley", btw.

Stub article by User:Lugnuts that does not satisfy sports notability in general or cricket notability in particular. The only reference is a database entry.

Farron, Washington

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

Another non-notable railroad waypoint being falsely called a community; no information found. Reference 4 is the only mention of Farron that could be found anywhere, and its statement "the town never grew large enough for a post office" is boilerplate text that the NPRRHS inserted in many entries on minor railroad stations. Coordinates locate to empty farmland today. Complete failure of WP:GNG and WP:GEOLAND. PROD was declined on the basis of geographic nominations being controversial.

Delete. All the sources I've seen indicate this was a rail station only. Google Books turns up a number of atlases listing it as a rail station with a population of X, indicating a rail site only. The 1959 Yakima County Plat Map shows Farron was a rail site without any street grid or even a subdivided area. There are no population figures for Farron in the 1940, 1910, 1900, or 1920 census. There's no mention of Farron in county histories. There are a few mentions in books of how many bushels of crops were shipped from the Farron station. No post office, school, church, or cemetery, that I can find. A redirect to Harrah, Washington, one mile to the west, isn't even merited, IMO.

Delete What an embarrassing prod removal. There is no basis whatsover that geographic places require AFD to be deleted, and this user should show up here with more legitimate reasoning or not do that again absent consensus for a blanket position. There's so much junk geographic articles that more of these need to deleted by prod rather than clogging up AFD. Blatantly false article made by the same person who brought us Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Susie, Washington. Reywas92^Talk 21:47, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Ashue, Washington

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

PROD was declined on the basis of geographic nominations being controversial. But this is just a non-notable railroad point. The sources cited are insufficient for notability; the only one with any information is reference 4, which plainly states this was a "station". The 1950 USGS topo map shows Ashue as a siding with a couple of buildings in the surrounding area, but no "town": [1]. Several mentions of an Ashue Grange can be found in local newspapers, but all these mentions are passing, and grange halls were usually just meeting halls for local farms, not anything connected to a formal "community". Fails WP:GNG and WP:GEOLAND. WeirdNAnnoyed ( talk) 23:40, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Best I can find regarding whether people reside there is this: [2], and appears in Native American Placenames of the United States, albeit briefly. It's too bad there's not a "list of unincorporated communities in Yakima County" article... SportingFlyer T· C 11:30, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Delete Not a siding, these are the coords for the grange hall in Ashue district. Some kind of farming district. There has never been anything else there. The local paper has ~50 passing mentions. Here are the key ones. https://www.newspapers.com/article/daily-sun-news-ashue-grange-location/140741227/ and https://www.newspapers.com/article/daily-sun-news-asue-district/140740986/. There would never be enough RS for an article. James.folsom ( talk) 20:38, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Comment If anybody wants to put a list of farming districts in the county article, let me know and I see if I can find them. James.folsom ( talk) 20:38, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply
delete Actually it is still a siding, serving an LPG distributor and maybe fertilizer? Anyway, again, need some evidence of a town. Mangoe ( talk) 04:21, 12 February 2024 (UTC) reply
Delete. Ashue Road runs through an agricultural area west of Wapato, Washington for about 11 miles and has several farms and houses. Nothing looks like it would amount to a community though. James.folsom has found Ashue farming district and SportingFlyer has found Ashue the name of a local 'service center'. This source states it was a railroad station from 1912. [3]. Ashue is also the name of a soil. [4]. To describe Ashue as an unincorporated community looks to be unfounded. As Ashue relates to different things, I don't see a relevant redirect. Rupples ( talk) 00:58, 13 February 2024 (UTC) reply
It's definitely nothing now, the question is whether it was ever anything, and I think we've got at least some evidence to that affect. Enough? Not necessarily, but am writing this here in case anyone wants to re-create this with more research than just a GNIS record. SportingFlyer T· C 09:03, 13 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Birchfield, Washington

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

PROD was contested on the grounds that geographic nominations are usually controversial. I don't think there's anything controversial in saying this is a non-notable and not generally recognized location. Zero mentions could be found in local press or any books; only reference 4 has any information at all, which is basically copy-pasted into the article. Birchfield does show up on the 1936 Yakima East USGS topo map: [5], as an intersection near the tracks with a couple of buildings. There is now a Birchfield Road through the area; every hit I got for Birchfield was for the road, not any "community". Fails WP:GEOLAND. WeirdNAnnoyed ( talk) 23:37, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

delete The oldest topo I found lists this as "Birchfield Sta" and I was able to get to the station listing page via Wayback, where it claims it to be a town but gives no justification for that statement.

Destani Wolf

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

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a singer, not properly referenced as passing WP:NMUSIC criteria. The strongest attempt at a notability claim here is that she's been a contributor to Grammy-nominated albums -- but NMUSIC #8 requires the subject to have personally been singled out as an award nominee in her own name for her own contributions, and simply having appeared as a guest musician on an album that somebody else got a Grammy nomination for doesn't count.
But nothing else here meets any NMUSIC criteria at all, and the referencing is depending far too heavily on bad primary and/or unreliable sources that aren't support for notability -- Bandcamp, blogs, IMDB, etc. -- while the only reliable sources in the bunch are a couple of hits of in the hyperlocal community media of her own hometown (but just having a couple of hits of "local person does stuff" coverage in her own hometown media isn't enough to get her over the bar all by itself if it's the best sourcing she has), a PopMatters album review that briefly mentions Destani Wolf's name without being about her in any non-trivial sense, and a Pitchfork article that fails to name Destani Wolf at all, serving only as tangential verification of one of the Grammy nominations that she wasn't actually the recipient of.
Again: she can't claim "notable because Grammy", because she wasn't personally named as the recipient of any Grammy nominations in her own name, and was merely a contributor to albums that other people got Grammy nominations for, so nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to pass WP:GNG on much better referencing than this.

Mirza Akhtar Baig

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

Does not meet WP:POLITICIAN yet. These people may have won the recent election there's no official ECP notification yet.. As per reports, ECP will publish the notifications of successful candidates by 21 Feb 2024. Furthermore, the results of many seats are being challenged in court due to allegations of rigging. It would be premature for us to declare those individuals as MNAs. Saqib ( talk) 21:20, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep: Once there is at least one reliable source reporting the successful election of a Member of Parliament, they are notable per WP:POLITICIAN. The nominator themselves has done the same in previous elections. All these individuals have been elected Member of Parliament per reliable sources except Salman Akram Raja who has general notability. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 21:44, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

I repeat what I wrote on your talk page, just because a mistake was made in the past doesn't justify repeating it. You must present a single reliable source that explicitly states "Mirza Akhtar Baig or others have been elected as members of parliament." I feel its very important to await the official ECP list of notified members before proclaiming them as winners solely based on election results. -- Saqib ( talk) 21:55, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Dunya News source is in the article which states Mirza Akhtar Baig has won – all of these articles has a reliable source declaring the subject as having been elected – as far as the challenge is concerned, the challenges keep happening months later that does not mean that we should hold off for months and no, that was not the mistake, it was your consistent behavior throughout past elections, you used to start creating articles as soon as any network reported a winner.

You are entitled to your opinion which used to be different during previous elections. Per WP, any reliable source is good enough, you do not need official ECP notification. Yes, if official notification is contradictory later on then the article can be nominated for deletion. As per this moment, these individuals are all elected per WP:RS thus notable for an article.

@ Curbon7: The BLPs were created based on the provincial election results. The election body has yet to release a list of MNAs elected to the assembly, officially confirming their status as elected lawmakers. The process of taking the oath and assuming offices occurs afterwards. For example, 2018 general election were held on 25 July, but ECP notified the final results on 7 August and issued a list of the MNA-elect and then on 13 August, MNA's-elect took oath and assumed office. I say let the election body notify official results & then we're safe to create BLPs under WP:POLITICIAN. -- Saqib ( talk) 10:06, 12 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep In general, WP:NPOL does cover candidates who are elected but have not yet taken office.

Comment Matisse wasn't painting by 1951 other than small gouaches, so this would be an unusual work and would probably have garnered more scholarship if real. Given that there seems to be none, suggests this may be a hoax. We would need to verify the existence of the painting. freshacconci (✉) 23:12, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply
Given that the article says this work "is one of Matisse's best examples of his use of color and form" it should be known enough to be included in books and articles. Since none has been found so far I've removed it from the Matisse navbox pending further research findings. I notice that I questioned the paintings authenticity in 2017 and, if a hoax, is a rather long-running one (2008). The Beasts of the Sea page says "Eventually by 1950 he stopped painting in favor of his paper cutouts" which would call this page into question (as well as it being in the Fauvism style, which ended decades earlier). Randy Kryn ( talk) 08:44, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply
Comment - I emailed the Getty Research Institute and asked them to check the 1988 catalogue raisonné. A picture by this name appears in a Matisse Facebook group. It appears to be a black outline of a face on a red ground. Very simple, kinda Picasso-y but lighter in spirit, not sure I'd call it fauvist at all.

Draftify. Not formally described as a taxon, so WP:SPECIESOUTCOMES does not apply. Any claim to notability would be as an individual fossil specimen (it should be in Category:Specific fossil specimens), although I'm not convinced it is notable as an individual fossil (I'm also not convinced that several other articles in that category tree are notable).

Katchanovski is notable neither as an academic nor as an author, and is not known by the wider public for any reason. His sole claim on public attention is as the origin of a WP:FRINGE theory that the Maidan massacre was a false flag operation. The conspiracy theory has subsequently been disseminated by Russian propaganda sources. The biographical article on Katchanovski is a WP:COATRACK for this contentious political viewpoint, and should be subsumed into the main article on Maidan casualties, should anything be worth rescuing. Nangaf ( talk) 17:55, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

This article has been re-nominated for deletion as previous discussions did not reach consensus. Since those discussions, further developments have rendered Katchanovski's conspiracy theory even more dubious: most notably, that a Ukrainian court has determined that 40 of the 48 dead were shot by the Berkut, and that causes of the remaining 8 deaths cannot be conclusively determined.

All important Western sources mention him frequently:

(1) Academic citations are not sufficient evidence of academic notability: Katchanovski does not meet any of the criteria of WP:ACADEMIC.

Comment. Yes, his work was cited, although not necessarily "favorably". Does it mean he is notable enough? This is a replay of previous nominations. There is only one difference right now: the subject of the page has strongly expressed dissatisfaction with the BLP page about him. Well, if he feels this page should be deleted, I think it would be fair to agree and delete. But if he wants to keep it, let's keep. I know, this is not really a policy-based argument.

My Very Best Wishes and Nangaf deliberately flood my biographical Wikipedia article and talk page with deliberately false and libelous information against me as a Ukrainian scholar in retaliation for my peer-reviewed article that mentioned their systematic whitewashing of contemporary far-right, including their involvement in the Maidan massacre, and whitewashing of Nazi collaborators and mass murderers in Ukraine.
They libelously and falsely call my peer-reviewed articles “conspiracy theory.” They deliberately omit my peer-reviewed studies and their favorable reviews by over 100 scholars, experts, and media. They deliberately and fraudulently misrepresent findings of the Maidan massacre trial verdict even after I provided specific parts of Maidan massacre trial verdict and media sources showing specific parts of the verdict confirming findings of my studies. They libelously and falsely link me to Putin.
None of my information and reliable sources that I provided was included in the article and none of the false and libelous claims were removed even after I provided all the sources. Nangaf responded saying “sue us.”
In addition to been libelous, such deliberate misrepresentation and manipulation of sources qualifies as fraud in academia.
They also deleted any favorable information, such as my prediction of the Russia-Ukraine war and my calls for EU membership of Ukraine. The article also deliberately omitted my role in in the SS Galicia veteran in the Canadian parliament scandal, my previous affiliation with Harvard University, that I one of the most cited political scientists specializing in Ukrainian politics and conflicts, and that mt research-based interviews, publications, and comments appeared in thousands of media reports.
Either remove the libelous and false information about me or delete my article immediately.

Meh. Here's another one of these discussions where h-index and Google search arguments are thrown around without much contextualization. I really don't care for how many Google Scholar hits someone has: if one can prove that a scholar is cited a few times and indicate how that citation takes place, then there's an argument, a much stronger one than "oh this guy has 1664 hits". Look at those hits closely, and one finds that (as is frequent in for instance sociology) these citations are just that--citations in long lists of other citations (the usual boring literature review), with no actual work being cited or assessed. Sure, he's cited a bunch, and those citations prove he's got a job etc., but if he's going to be notable via NPROF you can't just say "he was cited": you have to prove that his work was meaningful. That really goes for passing the GNG as well. Drmies ( talk) 02:28, 13 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Delete - No evidence given this subject satisfies NPROF or GNG. Per the above comments, a list of Google Scholar hits without any context doesn't prove much. Also of note is that the WP:BURDEN for establishing verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material and I would argue, in this case, wants to keep a BLP about someone who probably isn't notable. I also want to add that what the article subject himself wishes isn't especially pertinent to a deletion discussion, and we don't keep BLPs just to spite the article subject when they are angry with us and making demands. - The literary leader of the age ✉ 18:02, 16 February 2024 (UTC) reply

~~Delete~~. The profile in the Arizona Daily Star states that it's a countdown of the "50 best athletes on the University of Arizona campus right now, with help from athletes, coaches, and those close to the program." This is not going to be fully independent coverage, and the fact that the author is doing these profiles for 50 current student-athletes at the school suggests this is closer to a routine local news profile. Note also that the author attended the same school, where he was presumably quite affiliated with Wildcats sporting staff through working at the school newspaper. The combination of all these factors makes me discount this source. The other news piece (from the same outlet) is a passing mention totaling two sentences on him.

Delete - I’m unable to access the ADS sources by Beanie, so I can’t comment on those. For the others, Detroit Free Press and Arizona Republic are both routine draft coverage and MLive is a retirement post that isn’t substantial. Of interest is Detroit News and Baseball America, which both cover Quintana’s struggles in the minors. While both have substantial content, plenty of other minor league players also struggle, don’t make it, and unfortunately don’t get an article as there wasn’t other notable coverage.

There just isn’t anything else going for Quintana like being a top prospect that busted (he was a second-rounder with some power) that builds enough of a case to pass WP:GNG for me. Sources in article are mostly statistical and the sources provided by Letsrun is based on his time in college that seems routine.

Givens Corner, Washington

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

Non-notable rural intersection. Was PROD'ed once before in 2020, then dePRODded by the article's creator, who cited WP:GEOLAND, but the article utterly fails WP:GEOLAND since it is sourced entirely to GNIS. No other coverage could be found other than passing mentions in the local press (as a point of reference for where a car accident or property was located). Many rural crossroads were informally named ______'s Corners after the local landowner, for the sake of navigation; this does not mean they were ever a "community".

It's a another Wikipedia lie. The original feature class for this one was "locale", so there's actually zero support for this passing any sort of test whatsoever even if one accepts the GNIS database record. I could not find anything about this at all, and this never truly had a supporting source to start with. This is unverifiable. Delete. Uncle G ( talk) 18:02, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Comment Note that while the creator of the article made it look like it had 3 citations, 2 of them are just footnotes for the elevation source and the pouplation and actually only provide information about where the elevation and population come from. I'm removing the census one, because there is no census data to go with it. James.folsom ( talk) 19:49, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply
The article creator has several other Yakima County place stubs sourced in exactly the same way (all of them dishonestly using the "unincorporated community" descriptor for ordinary intersections, rail sidings, springs, and so on); I'm in the process of PRODding them all. WeirdNAnnoyed ( talk) 23:55, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Delete Just for peace of mind. It's a park near both Mabton and Grandview. At the "corner" of the park, The Grandview commercial club erected a lighted sign for the purpose of directing traffice to Grandview. The park is Givens Park and that intersection is Givens Park Corner. https://www.newspapers.com/article/grandview-herald-givens-park/140665419/ https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-sunnyside-times-givens-park/140665206/ Givens park corner is also known as Givens corner. James.folsom ( talk) 20:17, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Comment I kept going later and later into its future. The park was short lived, At one point there seems to have been a camp of people living in cars there. It was described as a car park at one point. Though almost all the early mentions are like this "we got free puppies 1 mile west of givens corner". The park and big sign made it recognizable as a land mark, and the size of the area known as Givens corner expanded over time. But there are really very few instances of anyone saying they were from there. These days its probably considered a rural community by the locals. The latest newspaper mention is an obit in 1981, and some of those 60's - 80's mentions tend to mention it as being a part of Mabton. So anyone looking for a merge should consider that.

He may have more mentions in Japanese, but in English he is rarely mentioned thanks to his games going unlocalized and the remakes being unpopular enough that he is mainly known for a game that isn't even a Fire Emblem one. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 16:21, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply
To be clear, what he's known for, and what region the sources come from, are irrelevant. All we need to find out is the WP:GNG is met and if there's any convincing WP:MERGEREASONs. Sergecross73 msg me 21:45, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply
Comment - It could be worth checking the Japanese version of the article I'm sure they would have at least something. I did also find this which could be useful from a more fan focus perspective ( Siliconera). Don't know how useful it can be, but hey it was worth a shot. Captain Galaxy 14:05, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply
I've just checked, and the Japanese article has even less Reception than this version of the article. I agree it may be worth checking Japanese sources, but the article in question lacks them. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 ( talk) 16:04, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply
Comment: Though I haven't looked at any any translations yet, this scholar source mentions Marth quite a few times. MoonJet ( talk) 15:47, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Merge to Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light for now. I am honestly surprised about how little there is for Marth, and I'd genuinely love to see this guy stay, but there isn't enough here for a split for now. A Legacy subsection with Marth, akin to EarthBound and Ness could be good to add given Marth has been arguably the most enduring part of that game. Regardless, if sources are found properly, ping me and I'll consider changing my vote given I'd love to have this article stay.

As for the two sources acknowledged by CaptainGalaxy and MoonJet, they don't really help. The Siliconera source is basically just a popularity poll ranking, which barely contributes to notability, while the Scholar source is an overview of the Fire Emblem series, and the only mentions of Marth are in reference to the plots and appearances of the character in the games. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 ( talk) 16:09, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Merge to the game or a character list. There isn't enough here for WP:SIGCOV. This is likely a WP:NOPAGE situation, where we could have a summary paragraph of reception about all of the characters. Particularly for sources that are about the characters, with no one in particular. Shooterwalker ( talk) 17:41, 11 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Pre-Celtic Europe

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

This article is a POVFORK of Prehistoric Europe with material also forked from Celts. The article attracts edits about linguistic theories, migration theories etc, that are all treated in better articles, such as Yamnaya culture, Bronze Age Europe, etc., and the only thing distinguishing this from any of these is the term "Celt", but the article is about the time before the Celts, so it is not actually about that. Note that this nomination is not saying pre-celtic history is not notable. For the avoidance of doubt, it certainly is. The European bronze age and earlier are all very notable topics. The nomination is saying the treatment of the subject in this format, with this specific framing, is redundant (and perhaps contradicts better articles).

Stats stub on a footballer that only ever played one match at professional level. In Japanese, I found Kazuamata no Tsuzuri, which is evidently a fan blog for Yokohama FC. I also found a user-submitted blog post on Naver about his wedding, which is no better than a social media post in terms of notability. Neither of these are examples of reliable, independent journalism with high standards for fact checking, therefore they do not confer notability. Doesn't seem to meet WP:SPORTBASIC.

2024 Myanmar Futsal League

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

As this has passed New Page Patrol and is relatively old now, I am not allowed to send to draft. That said, it currently has no acceptable sources and probably shouldn't have passed. I don't consider a Facebook photo to be acceptable justification for an article. Searching in Burmese (မြန်မာဖူဆယ်လိဂ်), I was unable to find any significant coverage of the 2024 season. News Eleven contains a passing mention of the 2020 season, MT News seems to be about a different tournament and is from 2023, this News Eleven article is from 2024 but is about the national team rather than the league. Searching in English, I can find GNLM but that's about the 2023 season and is painfully brief besides.

In summary, this article is totally inappropriate for mainspace and I can't find any sources to justify it. If someone can find sources that show in-depth coverage of the 2024 season of this competition, I would suggest moving this to draft space.

Comment I have found additional evidence from the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism confirming that TUKO is a leading media in Kenya, which should help with notability issue. [66]. Regarding sources, I already added two books that provide comprehensive coverage and analysis of the subject's significance in Kenya's media landscape. -- NiLok223 ( talk) 08:59, 12 February 2024 (UTC) reply
@ NiLok223, it would be really helpful if you - or anyone else - could clearly identify what you think are the best sources with the most significant coverage. It is very possible that people who have already !voted delete will change their minds if shown good sources (see for example the !vote immediately above your comment). Everyone who has called for "delete" has already looked at the article, so telling us "it's in the article" won't help. If we've missed something (which is easy when it's so refbombed), please let us know what it is. -- asilvering ( talk) 19:50, 12 February 2024 (UTC) reply
Comment: I've cleared out a lot of the refbomb. It should be easier to see the relevant sources now. I haven't rewritten anything or checked any of the sources for verifiability or notability, but it should be easier for someone to convert the remaining "list of facts" problem into actual narrative sentences. Editors mostly concerned with the adverty nature might want to take a second look. -- asilvering ( talk) 20:07, 12 February 2024 (UTC) reply
Keep the subject is definitely notable as the most or top-3 most visited websites (not media) in Kenya. I would suggest deviating from the classical approach as per WPNCORP and WP:THREE since the media often do not cover their rivals (I've recently read somewhere a good discussion on that matter on Wiki). Additionally, the Tuko website is the biggest news publisher on Facebook globally (not in Kenya) surpassing the global leader Daily Mail - per Oct and Nov 2022 reports by social media engagement tracking firm NewsWhip [67] and [68]. According to Alexa ranking (Feb 2022), Tuko was the third most visited website in Kenya after Google and YouTube, followed by Facebook. Therefore, the page meets the General Notability Guidelines (GNG). The sources added during that discussion, including books and others, and the removal of advert lines significantly improve the page as well Johnpaul2030 ( talk) 08:42, 17 February 2024 (UTC) reply

February 2003 Saddam Hussein interview

Fails WP:NEVENTS per the conditions in WP:COVERAGE. The article was created in 2005 and has been sparsely edited in the 20 years since. There has not been subsequent in-depth coverage that puts the interview into context, such as is often found in books, feature length articles in major news magazines and does not appear to have the lasting significance that notable interviews with other political figures have had, such as An Interview with HRH The Princess of Wales, Nixon interviews, Betty Ford's August 1975 60 Minutes interview, Palin–Couric interviews. True, the interview was on the eve of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, but nothing said during the interview or the coverage seems to point to its lasting notability.

Strong keep - This event meets notability for it's geo-political context, as a controversial event in journalism, and also as a notable event in television history. Agree that page could be punched-up to include context. See the recent documentary The big interview The panel on the interview in 2008 at National Conference for Media Reform, Rathers' Trustees Award nomination It was extremely controversial, at the time. The CBS CEO called it "It was the craziest sweeps in the history of show business" 1. A number of details provided in the interview provided new information about diplomacy leading up to the war. Please consider the scale of the events leading up to the war, and the role of this interview in prime-time news. 1 2 3 4 5 I presume it's recent attention this week is due to its comparisons with the recent Putin-Carlson interview. For recent reflections, see op-eds in 2017, lists of most famous interviews, etc. That's just a bit of googling, but please see the google books results for the full-illustration of how noteworthy the event was in modern history.

Delete. In my own WP:BEFORE, I cannot find sufficient sources to support even the basic/scant facts that the article contains. Not to mind sufficient sources to establish WP:SIGCOV or WP:NBIO. (Note: In the 1950s, Bohemians were an amateur club, so even the [now defunct] "NFOOTY" criteria wouldn't have applied. Can't see any case for retaining title...)

Unsourced biography since its creation in 2005. Unclear notability as a Han dynasty eunuch. Natg 19 ( talk) 01:08, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep. See Rafe de Crespigny, Fire over Luoyang: A History of the Later Han Dynasty 23-220 AD (2016); and Ulrich Theobald, http://www.chinaknowledge.de/History/Han/personszhengzhong1.html, in turn citing three secondary or tertiary sources in Chinese. (The last three I have not been personally able to access.) Overall the preponderance of evidence suggests this is notable. Adumbrativus ( talk) 09:26, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Strong Keep Subject has had an illustrious career as senior eunuch, holding sway over the young Emperor He of Han as a power broker in the eunuch faction against the consort kin faction (a familiar theme in Han dynasty politics). He is given a biography in the Book of Later Han, but more relevant to Wikipedia policies, his life is detailed in Rafe de Crespigny's A Biographical Dictionary of Later Han to the Three Kingdoms (23-220 AD) (p. 1130). In de Crespigny's other work Fire Over Luoyang, Zheng Zhong is mentioned no less than 28 times, and is described as having played "a critical role" in the coup against the consort kin Dou clan of Dou Xian, and his involvement sets a precedent as "the first time members of the inner court had been so actively involved in politics," and that "Zheng Zhong and his associates were models for the for the future, [where] palace eunuchs would become major players in the politics of the dynasty." (p. 132). Key political figure of lasting influence with unarguable notability. _dk ( talk) 09:51, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep Notable historical figure. Retinalsummer ( talk) 19:41, 14 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep More notable than many others with biographies and Wikipedia articles in Book of the Later Han and with citations from Rafe de Crespigny, arguably the most reputable English-language source on the era. In-line citations from Book of the Later Han vol. 78 should be added by someone familiar enough with the Classical Chinese, and as I have access to de Crespigny's Biographical Dictionary... I will add citations from that when I can, but the topic is still notable even if sources are identified but not yet included in the article. Benjitheijneb ( talk) 19:34, 15 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Addendum: having now added inline citations, specific criteria for notability according to de Crespigny explicitly include: significant involvement in a palace coup; being granted a marquisate as a reward (de Crespigny does not specify him as the first eunuch of Later Han to be granted one however); being the first Later Han eunuch to be significantly involved in governance; and being the first Later Han eunuch to pass on a fief to an adopted son. These are in line with WP:ANYBIO and WP:NPOL. Benjitheijneb ( talk) 20:12, 15 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep a power behind throne and historical figure. Extra passes WP:NPOL as senior court official. What a nonsense AfD. Shame! 1.46.88.188 ( talk) 19:54, 15 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Unsourced biography. Does not seem notable, but unsure if "founding general" means anything, or if his medals confer notability. Natg 19 ( talk) 01:03, 10 February 2024 (UTC) reply

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Military, and China. Natg 19 ( talk) 01:03, 10 February 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.
