Getting google books results for anytime the words "skid mount" are used in any context does not demonstrate WP:SIGCOV. These are mostly brief mentions of the fact that a skid mount was used, except for the first one, which appears to be about something else entirely, and the second one, which is a paper about a specific skid-mounted device, fine for verifiability, but not notability. Beeblebrox ( talk) 20:54, 10 January 2022 (UTC) reply
#1 is a paper on the structural analysis of a skid mount, used to transport hydrogen tubes, #2 is a technical report on the safety of a skid mounted road sign - an application not currently in the article. #3, #4, & #6 each have several paragraphs describing the general principle of a skid mount which could be used as references for the first paragraph of this article.

Firstly , Notability. The only source of any solidity is Pevsner; one line on the house, nothing on the garden. Secondly, this is a lump of the kind of promotional flannel that the owners of 'hospitality venues' create so that gullible would-be clients are bamboozled by the fact that there is a Wikipedia article.

    Comment, I think we should assume good faith towards Maypm, who created this article. If you look at their editing pattern, yes, they have created articles about two historical properties in Norfolk that have become wedding venues, but they have also created or worked on a variety of other articles, mostly about historical buildings. It is extremely common for such buildings to be used as wedding venues. Practically every house in Norfolk more than 100 years old and equipped with a garden big enough for a marquee is available to hire for your wedding if you want! If Maypm just happens to live in Norfolk and like writing about his/her local historical houses, they're doomed to writing about wedding venues, without this meaning that they are being WP:PAID. TheLongTone, if you think Maypm is being paid, the place to deal with it is probably an administrators' noticeboard, not AfD, but I don't think it'll hold much traction. Some of their other articles, for example Reymerston Hall, Norfolk are quite well balanced and historically informative. In general, the current commercial use of a property shouldn't count against its notability. Having said all that (and sorry about the rant!) there appears to be nothing useful to say about High House Gardens, Congham, so delete is reasonable. Elemimele ( talk) 19:16, 4 January 2022 (UTC) reply
I do assume good faith, but having looked at a couple of the editors other contribution I remain very doubtful. I cannot imagine why anybody should create an article ostensibly about a garden which in fact consists entirely of eyewateringly dull biographical details of the now demolished house's owners. TheLongTone ( talk) 13:10, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply
and I (sort of) apologise for removing all the references bar one; not intentional, but the baby went with the bathwater. TheLongTone ( talk) 13:13, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Mmm, been doing some thinking. Looking at the original article, before you trimmed it, TheLongTone, you are quite correct that it was about the house, not so much the garden. My personal guess is that the article's creator was either driving past, or attended a function at the garden, and is the sort of person who finds local history fascinating, so they got to work. There are two ways to handle this; one would be to restore the information about the house and its history, and rename (move) the article to Congham High House. But to do this, we'd have to be certain that the house and its history are notable, and that the article isn't original research. My feeling is that the house would be only borderline, and that the article was supported more by primary sources than secondary, so it does stray into the territory of writing that should be published as local history, not as encyclopaedia content. So I do still think (sadly) that delete might be the better option. I am sorry I got so grumpy yesterday! Elemimele ( talk) 17:15, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete On the one hand, it seems incredible to me that a murder and death-penalty case that involves such a hot-button issue as international adoption should not be notable. On the other hand, the article's sources show only two or maybe three sources that meet the usual notability requirements. The arguments for "keep" above do not, unfortunately, contradict this evaluation.

Advertorialized WP:BLP of an singer, not properly referenced as passing our inclusion criteria for singers. The notability claims here are that she was a non-winning competitor in a singing competition and otherwise just that her work exists, rather than any concrete evidence that she achived anything that would pass WP:NMUSIC -- and while the article also claims that she's an actress, it offers no indication whatsoever that she's ever done anything of note as an actress at all. And for sourcing, two of the six footnotes are to her own self-published website about herself and three more are of the "music metaverifying its own existence on Amazon.com" variety, which are not reliable or notability-building sources. And while there is one footnote to a real piece of media coverage here, it's a very short blurb nowhere near substantive enough to carry her over WP:GNG all by itself if it's the only acceptable source in the mix.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to be referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat ( talk) 22:30, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply

There is a true need for the Finnish KANTO page, since it is an authority ID that is widely used on pages of Finnish publishers (see, for instance Erik_Allardt in Finnish (Suomi)). It would seem appropriate to have a similar item in English especially because there are people in Finland whose Finnish is not as good as their English. ( Reetakuu)

  • Redirect Based on a rather brief an informal search for sources (the name makes this difficult to search for, as it has more common meanings in both English and Finnish), I don't think this is going to pass WP:GNG. I'd suggest merging this into National Library of Finland for now. Note how many other authority files e.g. in Authority control#Examples also simply link to libraries. Later, if sufficient independent coverage materializes, a dedicated article might then be split off. I'd be happy to change my !vote to keep, though, if someone can point out independent coverage. - Ljleppan ( talk) 08:45, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply
The Kanto page is very similar in status and content as the corresponding database page of the German National library Integrated Authority File which was used as an example in creation of the Kanto page. If that page is ok, then the Kanto page should be, too. That page has existed since 2012 and is not much longer, either.
If similarities of the name is an issue, the title could be finaf which is the official code name for KANTO registered by LOC similar to "gnd" for the Gemeinsame Normdatei. If deletion is still supported, this content should be included in the National library page, and then a redirect added Saarik ( talk) 09:06, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply
" Other stuff exists" does not hold much weight in AfD discussions: there's plenty of content in Wikipedia and some is bound to be less than stellar. For GND in specific, I completely agree that the en-wiki page is far from great. The de-wiki page de:Gemeinsame Normdatei has a lot more references, even if it too seems to be lacking in the independent-coverage department. - Ljleppan ( talk) 09:36, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply
wow, this is really amazing. How can you even require to have many references to a new page which is just created??? The gemeimsame Normdate page has existed almost 10 years so of course it has references. Saarik ( talk) 07:56, 17 January 2022 (UTC) reply
you seem to misunderstand. A page should not even be created unless there are 3rd party references to the subject of the page. We're not alking about references to the page itself, but the subject. When it doesn't, the material is best included in an existing article,and there's a good one for the purpose. DGG ( talk ) 00:53, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply

The other possibility, which could be pursued atmthe sametime, is to turn the list of national authority lists into a combination article. There will be the same problem in trying to make articles on most of them.

  • Comment I did a slightly more comprehensive search of Finnish language academic resources than in my original comment above, and there are a few Finnish language publications that have passing mentions of KANTO, e.g. [3] [4]. But these are indeed very passing. The first one states that they used KANTO data in constructing another thing, and the second has a passing mention that translates along the lines of "Work on ontologies has continued in the National Library of Finland. For example, Finto's new KANTO ontology covers the authoritative names of the agents relating to materiel published in Finland, produced during the description of the national bibliography, including the authors of musical materiel" (the original Finnish sentence is either extremely confusing or has some mistake in it, I can't quite tell). A general list of national authority files sounds reasonable, so I'd also be happy with that as an alternative. - Ljleppan ( talk) 10:41, 27 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Perhaps in the future, after he achieves notability in the way of significant coverage in reliable sources, wins some awards, etc. he will be ready for an article. When I saw the L.A. Times citation I was hopeful, but it consisted of a very brief mention and name check in photo captions which is not enough to pass WP criteria for WP:NACTOR. The other citations consist of a couple interviews, which as mentioned in the nom, are primary sources that don't contribute to notability; simple mentions that he is in the cast; or don't mention him at all, therefore, he also does not pass WP:GNG.

  • Delete - Almost incomprehensible. The article seems, on machine-translating the references, to be about a fictional universe, but does not consistently describe it as fiction, and is poorly organized.
  • An article should speak for itself as to why its subject matter is notable without the need for a reader to read the references. After all, the purpose of an encyclopedia is to contain information, not merely to be links to verifying information. This article does not speak for itself, because it is almost incomprehensible, but a review of the references shows that they mostly appear to be advertising the fiction and the fictional universe.

  • It appears that this source [4] is about the mine that gave the place its name. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:20, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Rename to Cliff Mine (Michigan). The source I linked to above states "is the first successful mine in the Michigan Copper District and dates from 1845." The mine appears to be notable, but the place is just whatever residents grew up just around the mine. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:20, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • This source [5] suggests the mine is in Phoenix, Michigan. That apparently is an unincorporated place in the county. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:22, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    • I will need to see if I can find more sources. The two places may have been the same, and people may have used different names for the same mine. It is also less than clear that Phoenix, Michigan is still a place. It may be miscategorized as such, and maybe should be recategorized to the former populated places category.

  • Merge to Phoenix, Michigan for the time being. We need better sourcing to sort this out. I know people have written books about Michigan's copper country. I have no idea if they would add better sourcing on this place. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:28, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Merge to Clifton, Michigan. My searching in google books suggests that this is the actual place where the mine was at, and we have a better sourced article on that place. Phoenix, Michigan may in turn be another name for the place. Someone would probably want to look at the sourcing more to figure this out. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:32, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    • google books here [7] suggests there are two books that mention the mine in the title. There are other books on Michigan copper country that might say something about this place, especially if this was in fact the first successful mine. Even though I live in Michigan, I have never even been to the UP, let alone Copper Country, so I do not have a good sense of the spacial issues involved in the place. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:34, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • I found this book published by Wayne State University Press in 1991. In the intriduction (thus the part written by a modern scholar, and thus a secondary not a primary source) it explicitly states that Clifton was also know as "Cliff". [8]. So we have sourcing that This is an alternate name for Cliff. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:39, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Clifton, Michigan as an alternate, informal name. I don't really see any meaningful content worthy to be merged. Clifton, Michigan needs serious improvements and footnotes, btw. Cavarrone 10:25, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Clifton, Michigan. The book Michigan Place Names (Romig 1986) has two separate listings for Cliff and Clifton. For Cliff, it states, "Keweenaw County; the village grew up around the Cliff Mine founded by the Pittsburg & Boston Company in 1844; named by John Hayes, a Pittsburg pharmacist turned prospector, from its location below a high bluff; one of the most profitable of copper mines, it was sold to the Cliff Mining Company in 1871, who in turn sold it to the Tamarack Mining Company in 1880; now the mine a ruin and its village a ghost town." For Clifton, it states, "Keweenaw County; the Clifton Mine (copper) was opened in 1852; the North American Mine post office was transferred to and renamed Clifton on Feb. 24, 1853... the Clifton Mine was closed in 1855 but the Clifton post office operated until Dec. 3, 1884." My only other source on the matter Michigan Ghost Towns (Dodge 1973) lists both communities, but for Cliff, it merely reads, "Cliff—See Clifton" and right below that has several paragraphs for Clifton. It sounds like they might have been separate but very similar communities. However, Cliff doesn't appear to have any useful information available, while Clifton has more information for its own article. — Notorious4life ( talk) 04:10, 23 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. You mean WP:NGEO? Keeping or deleting isn't decided on what's in the article, but on what's available. It was a recognized township, dsecribed as such in gazetteers [9]. It should be moved to Conner's Creek though, as that is the more common form of the name. Anyway, it (and the convoluted history of its name) has a long entry here, making it clear that it had at one time more than two thousand inhabitants. Fram ( talk) 13:53, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment The nomination is incorrect. The one thing listed under sources is not a discussion forum. It is a book that has entries on basically every place in Michigan, with an emphasis on the origin of the name, but it does tell a little about their history. I may have over relided on it as a reliable source that could establish notability, but it is a published book, not a discussion forum. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 14:15, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep The additional source found by Fram clearly shows notability. I added information based on that source throughout the article with clear references. It is also interesting to me that the nominator failed to notify me of the deletion disucssion even though I was the article creator. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 14:28, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Comment Since I live on the east side of Detroit, and have driven through this specific area extensively, I know the location where Gratiot Avenue crosses the now underground Conner Creek is about 3 miles from the area the sources seem to be identifying with the later use of this name.

That is very different than someone seeing a notice on something that I posted to my talk page. Which is in turn different from someone seeing a notice on something on my talk page and then going to look even further into the matter on their own and finding other articles that they do not think are at all notable.

  • Redirect to Athletics at the 1936 Summer Olympics – Men's 50 kilometres walk - no evidence of passing GNG presented, and it might as well redirect to the article for the sole Olympics event he participated in. Hog Farm Talk 15:21, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    • Do we really want redirects to people who were disqualified from the event? If we redirect every article that we have on a person who participated in the Olympics who does not meet notability guidelines, a category like Category:1912 births will end up being about a quarter redirects to various Olympic pages. At present only about 0.5% of that category consists of redirects. Actually it may be closer to 0.25%. It does not even average one redirect for every page of 200 articles in the category.

    • No, GNG is not always enough. There is a way to read GNG that would cause 100% of candidates for US house to pass it, and a very large percentage of candidates for state legislature, at least in states other than New Hampshire (New Hampshire has a very large legislature, I think the largest in the US, and yet it has about a 25th the size the population of California), to pass it. So there are clearly cases where theoretically passing GNG is not enough. Anyway no one here has claimed at all that there is any source that in any way would add towards this individual passing GNG, so it is a mute point. To be fair we have not yet done much analysis on what type of sources on non-medaling Olympians may or may not add towards passing GNG, this is in part because well over 50% of our articles on Olympians, at least among those before 1960, have only 1 source, and it is one of the sources here that we have ruled in no way can even be used to add towards passing GNG. Not one of the sources on this particular article would add towards passing GNG. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 13:58, 25 January 2022 (UTC) reply

I nominated this for deletion in 2000 due to what I saw as a lack of notability at the time and it was kept. Although the main crux of the keep votes came down to insulting me over the nomination, saying it must be notable because it it developed two FDA approved drugs, or similar WP:ILIKEIT and WP:INTERESTING arguments. No one that voted keep really discussed the sourcing except to provide a couple of extremely trivial ones that related to them being bought out by Pfizer and an article that has to do with a compound in one of their drugs that has nothing to do with them except for saying in the article that they came up with it. Both of which are extremely WP:MILL. As drug companies routinely create pharmaceutical compounds and get bought out by other drug companies. So, I'm re-nominating this in the hopes that a better consensus, based on an actual discussion about the companies notability or lack of it, can occur this time around. Hopefully without the insults and other nonsense that occurred in the last discussion.

Just to throw it out there, in the original AfD I suggested redirecting or merging this to Pfizer as an ATD. I still think that doing so is a good option compared to doing nothing. Since there is some coverage of the company, even if it's extremely trivial. I just don't think there is enough to justify a stand alone article though. So I'm fine with anyone voting merge or redirect if they think it's justified compared to deleting the article outright. Adamant1 ( talk) 02:40, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply

The Latvian Olympic Committee page on him (archived here; since the link is broken for me at least, and in order to use it as a reference, I junked the Wikidata external links template) is also a reliable source for his career, not only for his one Olympics appearance, and I added a local history reference that has details on what happened at the Olympics: he was one of three Latvians competing, they had been advanced automatically to the final, and his disqualification during the race was a surprise and was not explained. Curiously, that source has a varying death date for him, and the encyclopedia entry has a varying birth date; all other sources agree, so I merely left hidden notes in those references. I also left a hidden note on the 1941 occupation; depending on the date of his win, it could have been either the Soviet Union or Nazi Germany. Yngvadottir ( talk) 03:20, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply

It would appear to me that this is at best a laudable proposal that gained no traction, at worst a marketing ploy. OK, so looking this up, I found this on the Welt (German TV channel) website: "Das ist er offenbar nicht. Diversität wird in deutschen Unternehmen nach wie vor zu wenig gelebt, wie die bundesweite Initiative Beyond Gender Agenda urteil." Even with my rudimentary German, this jumped out at me as pretty obviously promotional, even before I saw www.welt.de/sponsored/ in the URL.

Actually, I guess I should reframe this comment as a weak delete since I think it's pretty unlikely anyone is going to be able to build a keep argument. Have I gone through all of those sources to see if there's independent, significant coverage? No. Do I think anyone else will, and additionally then be able to make a case for keep out of what they find? Well... also no. -- asilvering ( talk) 06:29, 28 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Recreation of an article that was deleted under AfD per WP:TOOSOON one year ago. The only change since then that I see is that he was on the Forbes 30 under 30, which we do not usually regard as contributing to notability (and indeed, which is often a sign that it is WP:TOOSOON). WP:BEFORE showed similar citation record as previously for WP:NPROF, and few other signs of notability. Russ Woodroofe ( talk) 11:03, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • @ Glucken123 and Mightberightorwrong: can you comment on what notability criterion you think the subject passes, based on which sources? Russ Woodroofe ( talk) 13:26, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Russ Woodroofe: With all due respect, but your main argument that most articles on LipNet don't mention Assael's name is factually untrue. Let's see; the FT article highlights his name as one of the two lead researchers behind the development of Pythia [1]. How often do you come across experimental AI algorithms that are able to restore ancient Greek texts in a matter of seconds? That's why there is also a Wiki article on Pythia. In regards to the BBC article [2] on LipNet, not only mentions his name but also provides a quote from both researchers: Machine lip-readers have enormous potential, with applications in improved hearing aids, silent dictation in public spaces, covert conversations, speech recognition in noisy environments, biometric identification and silent-movie processing, wrote the researchers." That hyperlinked article is the PDF version of the pre-print publication, where Assael is evidently the lead author. I agree with your previous edit to remove Arxiv publications, but don't you agree that there is certainly some notability here? LipNet received national coverage in 2016 ( a simple Google search is always a good idea). I also agree that the article lacked notability in its previous state however even users who participated in the previous deletion proposal, voted against deleting it this time. The latest version is full of references that should do the trick. I hope my response was suitably diplomatic 😌 Glucken123 ( talk) 16:00, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Glucken123: it sounds like you are arguing that Assael meets WP:BASIC notability. (Well, with a side of WP:ILIKEIT.) That would require significant coverage of Assael from multiple independent reliable sources. The papers and preprints are not independent. The FT mentions Assael in passing (as I had previously said) but I think this is far short of WP:SIGCOV. I do not even see Assael's name anywhere in the BBC article -- perhaps I am missing something?? (Please tell me if I am!) I also do not see him mentioned in the other articles in reliable sources. It does look plausible to me that LipNet is notable, but notability is not inherited. I agree that a redirect could be a sensible alternative to deletion. Russ Woodroofe ( talk) 16:45, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Russ Woodroofe: You need to elaborate (oh, and define 'significant coverage' pls!). You are asking for significant coverage, but this does not always apply to all academics-researchers out there. After all I am using both the citation profile and sources to back my claims focused on WP:SIGCOV notability. The fact that BBC (and the FT) clearly highlight the achievements of AI algorithms developed by Yannis Assael (Pythia + LipNet as a lead author) is more than enough to link the person to the subject even in articles where his surname is not mentioned. It appears that LipNet was mainly developed by two people, same as Pythia. The hyperlink I was referring to, can be found right after the quotation [1] (click on wrote the researchers or look at the hyperlink). Like I said, preprint publications should not be used on Wikipedia - you're absolutely right on this. However, the notability of some preprint papers (as they are lauded by the BBC as a breakthrough achievement in lip reading applications) should be considered encyclopaedic content, hence the mentions in other reputable sources. IMO all the above-mentioned achievements meet the notability criteria fully. Glucken123 ( talk) 17:35, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Glucken123: academics can also reach notability through the WP:NPROF criteria, which I believe is what you are now referring to. This usually would require a high level of citations. How high depends somewhat on the field. Consensus in the last AfD from Wikipedians experienced with this set of criteria was that it is WP:TOOSOON for Assael in this regard. "Wrote the researchers" is not a mention of Assael, except very indirectly. I will answer some of your other questions about notability on your talk page. Russ Woodroofe ( talk) 18:16, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Russ Woodroofe: Absolutely - my point is that a medium level of citations alongside significant coverage on mainstream media can be combined in the case of Assael. AI is indeed a highly cited field and with the previous consensus, things could have been different indeed. In its current state, however, the article was significantly expanded as it presents evidence backed by solid references (and Forbes IMO also is reliable). It seems that we disagree about BBC, but that is ok. I will respond to your points on my talk page in a bit. Thanks! Glucken123 ( talk) 19:14, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Compared to the previous article there is now significant coverage about the person/research.

  • Delete The first AfD got it right here. Involved in a couple projects, but his actual role in them is unclear, and most of the press coverage is about the projects (many of the cited articles don't mention him at all). Nor would I call the press coverage in-depth; the item in The Verge is about the best of the lot, and it's only a brief interview. I sense a lot of churnalism and PR involved; these are the kinds of stories that don't even bother to seek out comment from someone not involved in the research. In principle, press reports could carry a researcher over the bar by talking about the work and not the person, but this is not the type of serious coverage that could qualify. His citation profile doesn't amount to a WP:PROF#C1 pass. XOR'easter ( talk) 07:36, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply

    • This is very common in academia, opening any of the links of the published work in those articles I see from the authors list that was led/co-led all the research mentioned. For example the the Verge article that you mention is about his work "LipNet". I think that 15 news articles from BBC, MIT Tech Review, New Scientist is a reasonable number to show the credibility of the press coverage. AntoniadK ( talk) 10:50, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
      • I will have to agree with AntoniadK on this. I find the comment on churnalism a little exaggerated and perhaps unnecessary? It does not look like PR at all. Theoretically speaking, the citation profile alongside the coverage can amount to a clear WP:PROF#C1 pass. On top of that there is clear proof that Assael is one of the two main researchers behind LipNet (check the research paper link on the BBC article) and Pythia, which is mentioned in the Financial Times piece. Birdsandwasps ( talk) 13:34, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
        • New Scientist is dross. MIT Technology Review is often not a lot better. In this case, the Tech Review item is just a blog post summarizing a few other webpages; so, it's not WP:SIGCOV. The BBC item was based entirely upon the researchers' own preprint and an Internet comment thread about it. Should we call that "in-depth reporting"? No, we should have the bare modicum of self-respect required not to debase ourselves that way. Learn what churnalism looks like. The media reporting here is nearly pure PR, recycled for easy clicks. XOR'easter ( talk) 18:43, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
          • Comment You might want to read WP:NEWSCIENTIST and WP:FORBES. Both notes appear to be quite clear on the quality of the sources. There is no evidence of any PR related to the BBC piece. Glucken123 ( talk) 19:14, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
            • I've read them. "Generally reliable" is not universally reliable. Clicking one step further and reading the most recent discussion that the text at RSP is supposed to summarize, it turns out to be substantially harsher than the summary makes it sound. Setting that aside, which we probably shouldn't, the claim in question here is sensationalist and thus contentious, and so even WP:NEWSCIENTIST advises caution. WP:FORBES is beside the point: nobody questions that he really was listed on their "30 under 30". We're just saying that that isn't adequate to establish notability. The BBC story is so superficial that it doesn't matter whether it was originally motivated by a press release or not; it fails to be WP:SIGCOV. XOR'easter ( talk) 20:23, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
              • The most recent discussion does not indicate any disagreements about the use of WP:NEWSCIENTIST in WP. It's just a discussion, completely unrelated to the reliability of the source. Therefore, I suggest you read the conversation you provided as evidence as users agreed that it is too early to tell. Next. Glucken123 ( talk) 20:32, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                • "Completely unrelated"? A discussion where an editor says A lot what New Scientist does is frankly sensationalism and churnalism? And another editor stated They called me in two different occasions to ask for comments for an article, and badly misquoted me to make it more juicy? Sure sounds like a discussion of reliability to me. The sentiment was expressed that it was too early to tell whether being bought by the Daily Mail was bad, but no formal consensus was established in favor of that. And even if being bought by the Daily Mail has not changed them for the worse, they were already bad for contentious, controversial or sensationalist topics. XOR'easter ( talk) 21:26, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                  • Alright, let's try this again. Unless there is an official change in WP:NEWSCIENTIST, approved by other users, the article can still be used to back evidence in WP articles. So far, your comments have been somewhat.. volatile and counterproductive (see below [1] [2]). More specifically, the above response is just your own personal opinion as you are exclusively referring to comments shared by other users. All I can see is a big green light in WP:NEWSCIENTIST - pretty sure you can see that too. Imagine if others users looked at The Times or The Wall Street Journal (both green-lighted) and argued that, because of Rupert Murdoch they should not be used in WP articles anymore. This could only be made possible through a vote. Feel free to initiate that! Am I missing something here? I don't think so. Since this is a deletion discussion, why don't we stick to the policy and avoid any unnecessary POV, shall we? Glucken123 ( talk) 21:49, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                    • What is "volatile" or "counterproductive" about comparing one publication described as a publicity stunt/vanity scam with another that has often been described in the same way? Or in pointing out that there were strong negative comments in a discussion that the summary at WP:RSP gives no indication of? I can indeed plainly see that New Scientist is listed in green at WP:RSP. What I have been saying all along is that even if we ignore common sense and take that as absolute gospel, it's still not a source that contributes meaningfully to notability in this case. XOR'easter ( talk) 22:04, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                    • Addendum: the sources added here are interviews, which are generally seen as iffy for the purposes of establishing wiki-notability. Since the interviews were seemingly prompted by the Forbes "30 under 30", itself a dubious proposition, I can't quite say that they represent the world at large taking note of the article subject in a meaningful way (glomming onto somebody else's near-meaningless publicity isn't the same as coming to an independent judgment that someone's work is important). I sincerely thank the editor for putting in the work to find them, but I can't say that they sway my opinion. XOR'easter ( talk) 22:22, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                      • That is not true as the article from To Vima discusses achievements within the field, including his other future projects involving machine learning. The second article from Kathimerini pays tribute to Forbes 30 under 30 indeed, but also discusses his achievements. Other authors have provided reliable sources such as the FT, Verge and Independent. Glucken123 ( talk) 22:56, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                        • To Vima leads with the Forbes 30 under 30. Kathimerini explicitly chose to interview three people because they were on it. Ta Nea did the same thing (and apparently relied on Kathimerini for at least some of their information). These aren't sources, they're clones. As Russ Woodroofe argued above, the FT did not give significant coverage. The item in The Verge is a brief interview, so again dubious for wiki-notability purposes. The item in the Independent is seemingly reliable, but also pretty insubstantial (short, and failing the "get a comment from someone not involved in the research" test). XOR'easter ( talk) 23:16, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                          • Errr no! To Vima only mentions it as an achievement - it proceeds to discuss (in a long article completely unrelated to Forbes!) his research profile and projects. Kathimerini indeed interviewed the three Greeks because of Forbes 30 under 30, but still does not change the fact that it's the leading Greek newspaper! Finally, Ta Nea mentions Kathimerini in a different section - completely unrelated to Asssael. I did not say at any point that the Financial Times piece gives significant coverage. But together with other mentions (which are more than enough IMO) and his citation profile, could certainly make a strong case against a potential deletion of the article. Glucken123 ( talk) 23:25, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                            • To Vima starts off with a non-achievement and treats it as an achievement, then provides some empty fawning; I can't honestly say that it's the kind of serious biographical profile which can help an interview count as a good source. I mention Ta Nea relying upon Kathimerini to indicate the shallowness of the reporting effort that seems to have gone into the blurbs they provided. The fundamental problem here is that we have a heap of superficial or otherwise mediocre sources, in a topic area that is rife with sensationalism. That's a bad foundation to try to build an article upon. XOR'easter ( talk) 23:49, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete, no significant change since my delete opinion in the previous AfD, other than the "Forbes 30 under 30" listing, on which I agree with the nominator that this sort of early-career publicity is inadequate for notability in the absence of anything else. If there were a single 30 under 30 listing for all discipline globally, it might be worth something, but they break it down into so many subcategories by specialty and region that it becomes meaningless publicity, almost a vanity scam. — David Eppstein ( talk) 18:57, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete Academic notability point 6 was never meant to be broad enough to cover the heads of community colleges. Some may be notable through widespread and sustainted coverage in newsmedia. However we should expect at least as good and as wide ranging coverage in that regard as we would of mayors, and the coverage here does not meet that threshold. I strongly suspect the same is true of his successor as head of this institution that we also have an article on. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 18:41, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. I agree with JPL that community college presidency is not automatically notable, but only through WP:GNG-level coverage, which we do not have here. The sources in the article are a non-independent one from the school he worked for and a non-in-depth one from a local newspaper article that is mostly about something else (a facility named after him). My searches didn't turn up anything elsewhere that would change that picture. — David Eppstein ( talk) 08:43, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Lacks the notability required to have an article. While she meets the very lax indicators of WP:NFOOTY by having played for a national team, NFOOTY / NSPORTS explicitly state that they only give a presumption of notability, and that in the end WP:GNG must be met. The only non-database source whioh gives some attention to her is an interview by the Gibraltar FA, which isn't an independent source of course. Fram ( talk) 10:44, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - there is longstanding consensus that scraping by on NFOOTBALL with one or two appearances is insufficient when GNG is failed so comprehensively, as is the case here. International players are usually assumed to be more notable than club players, as it is a higher level, but the article says she has stopped playing to study? If sources are found please ping me.

Fram ( talk) 09:06, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete She clearly does not have the sourcing to pass GNG. She plays for the team of a Gibraltar. Let us not abuse the term "national team", and treat a team that looses to Liechstenstein like it is the same as one that is competitive against Brazil. We need to be logical in how we apply criteria, and if we start treating every member of every "national" team of a micro-state or a dinky overseas territory of another country as default notable the results will be absurd. If one of these "national" teams actually wins several international games, and maybe even is a contender in the world cup it will make sense, but acting like the team for a place with a population of 34,000 and an area of 2.6 square miles is in any sense a "national" team, especially when the place is an overseas dependency, is just not a realistic assessment of the situation involved. She is young, and so may well at some point play at a level that generates significant coverage, but we do not know that, we cannot predict the future, and we do not create articles until the coverage has actually come to be, not just because we think coverage likely. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 13:44, 25 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep I disagree with the above notion that smaller national teams are less important than larger ones, she plays in the same qualifiers as other international players. Passes GNG, and presumably GNG.-- Ortizesp ( talk) 14:42, 26 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    • She only played in a friendly, not even in a qualifier. And being one of the 11 (plus substitutes) best players at any given time is somewhat easier in a "country" of 32,000 people than in a country of millions of course. National teams like the one from Gibraltar have never come close to winning anything or to qualifying for any tournament, the players in the team are usually not important otherwise (don't play at a high level), and most importantly they don't get the coverage needed for an article. Fram ( talk) 08:11, 27 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Fram's and JPL's rationales are spot-on. Meeting NFOOTY is irrelevant if GNG is failed, and no one has produced evidence of SIGCOV. There is far more precedent supporting deletion of SSG-meeting, GNG-failing footballers than the three AfDs cited in support of keeping. JoelleJay ( talk) 18:43, 28 January 2022 (UTC) reply

May be it would be a good idea to hold the deletion for a few weeks. That is my opinion. Wiki3editor1986 ( talk) 09:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Hey @ Kavyansh.Singh
  • Nice to hear from you. I do understand your concern about the GNG, however, in my research, I found that the subject got an award. And the citation number [4] is the list of people who got the award in 2021 with a short description of what they were awarded. The list was published in The Print, which I guess is a reliable and a notable source. Your citation number [3] is of Republic World pray explain how it is un-reliable. Further more, when I tried to improve the article, the popup suggested that we source from Google, and you are suggesting that Google Knowledge Graph is unreliable, this has gotten me confused. As even now, as I am trying to understand, there is a suggestion under the name Priyanka Saha near the top of this page that is suggesting we find sources from Google. Sincerely I am scratching my head in confusion. Wiki3editor1986 ( talk) 10:48, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Hi @ Wiki3editor1986, sorry for being bit unclear in my previous comment. So, Google is merely a search engine. It (almost) provides all the sources available on the internet. Google itself is not a source. The top of this article says that you can find sources through Google. Don't use Google or Google knowledge panel as a source. As for The Print citation, yes, it is generally reliable. But, (1) it just has a passing mention of the topic, that is, it does not provides information about the topic in detail. It is fine to use that source to cite that she received that award. But, it does not help establish the notability. (2) If the India Icon Awards, had itself been notable per Wikipedia standards, it would have helped in assertion of notability. But that award is itself not notable, thus we can't claim that the subject is notable as she won that award. And as for the Republic World/Republic TV source, per WP:REPUBLICTV, "[in 2021,] there was a consistent and overwhelming consensus to deprecate Republic TV. [Republic TV] Editors cite hoaxes, fake news, fabrication, misinformation and conspiracy theories.". Thus, it should not be used. – Kavyansh.Singh ( talk) 11:35, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    Thank You @ Kavyansh.Singh for clarifying. My opinion in the matter was, as my research yielded some sources that were not originally in the article, it might so be that more would come and they might be reliable and verifiable as per the standards. So in place of deleting the page immediately, would it not be better to draftify per WP:HEY as @ FormalDude suggested and let the article provider improve on it, make proper and verifiable citations over time and re-submit for review?

Going by GNG and the notability guidelines for creative professionals and for teachers in higher education, the subject does not seem notable. Most attention in RSes has been about allegations of sexual misconduct, and the only thing in the article apart from the lead is a section about those allegations. Seeing as he's not been convicted of anything and seems to be a fairly low-profile individual, the section is a BLPvio; apart from that, there is no real substance in the article. There is only one ref from RS that's directly about him (cite no. 1) and even that is very bare-bones. Searches on JSTOR and TWL return nothing of note either, so the article should be deleted. W.

  • Tentative Delete - Two sources provided. One is an archive of what appears to be a fan-run website without an editorial process. The other is an article from the New York Times, which, if it contained the information in question, would be a clear indication of notability. The trouble I have is that I clicked the PDF linked in the article, and nothing I see there mentions soccer in any way... the PDF talks about golf, yachting, polo, track and field, baseball, and a racist crime report, but no soccer (or association football) that I can see. Now, this PDF is only a clipping from the newspaper, and its entirely possible that the newpaper did talk about this soccer team on that day, and it's just not in the PDF... but there's nothing here as far as I can see.

Draft which was moved to mainspace in quite a WP:POINTY manner. No prose whatsoever beyond a textual restatement of statistics included in the infobox. Each year, there are hundreds if not thousands of university sports teams, and most of their seasons are not independently notable. There is no indication how this one is supposedly outstanding enough that it warrants an article. Fails WP:NOTSTATS, WP:NSEASONS and WP:RUNOFTHEMILL.

  • Keep - In light of the expansion and sourcing, this meets WP:GNG. Fieari ( talk) 23:42, 23 January 2022 (UTC) Delete - Looking at the South Dakota Coyotes football page, I could see an argument for having an article for the 1973, 1985, 1986, 2006, 2017, and 2021 seasons... but not other years than these. (I could also see an argument for having an article on none of these.) This does seem to fail WP:NSEASONS, which specifies that top college teams can have articles on years they went to championship-- this is not such. Honestly, I rather wish wikipedia did allow indiscriminate lists of facts like this as long as reliable verifiability is met (in which case we would keep this article), but that's a discussion for elsewhere. Current standards say no. Alas. Fieari ( talk) 01:49, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Fieari: In light of the substantial expansion of the article and arguments below, would you be willing to give this a second look? Cbl62 ( talk) 19:11, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Yep, I'll change my !vote above. Fieari ( talk) 23:42, 23 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Question. The standard proposed by Fieari would imply the deletion of many thousands of articles. I'm not raising OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, I'm saying that WP:NSEASONS doesn't describe current reality, in which individual season articles are created for every team at the Division I FBS level, and a goodly number at the FCS level (which this is, more or less). You could do a merge into an article about South Dakota Coyotes seasons in the 1970s, and in fact NSEASONS suggests that outcome, but that may not make for a good experience for the reader. I suppose what I'm saying is that while RandomCanadian has a reasonable and valid point grounded in policy and guidelines, those policies and guidelines don't match the facts on the ground. Under those circumstances, I think the movement to mainspace is less pointy and more the frustrated reaction of an editor who's not sure why this season of South Dakota football is being singled out for special treatment, as opposed to the other 73. Mackensen (talk) 02:04, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Mackensen: It has always been understood that the entirety of NSPORTS (including NSEASONS) is an inclusive standard, rather than an exclusive season. If a season receives SIGCOV in multiple, reliable sources, it qualifies as notable under GNG, regardless of whether or not it falls within NSEASONS. Cbl62 ( talk) 02:32, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Also, NSEASONS is drafted to cover all college sports, and in most sports, the coverage is such that most season articles would not pass GNG. College football is different in that the SIGCOV is far more extensive, such that Division I football seasons almost certainly pass GNG. GNG is the real measure that needs to be applied here. Cbl62 ( talk) 02:39, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Picking the most inclusive possible criterion misses the point. Meeting GNG is not enough if it fails WP:NOT (as it does in this case), or if it can more effectively be handled on some other page instead of having a separate page of its own (as brightly explained on WP:N). NSEASONS (although it might need minor improvements) is one of the few parts of NSPORTS which is actually helpful in figuring out whether something should really have a stand-alone article or if it would better be covered elsewhere. I wouldn't be opposed to having a summary of the team's history and major sporting achievements in its article, but thousands upon thousands of run-of-the-mill model, like this:
Year Run-of-the-mill football team

The Year Run-of-the-mill football team represented the University of Run-of-the-mill in the Year NCAA Division X sports season as a member of the Random College Conference (RCC). Led by Xth-year coach John Doe, the Run-of-the-mills compiled an overall record of A-B and a mark of X-Y in conference play, placing Nth in the RCC.

[insert schedule and results table here]

This is the basic format of almost every page in the appropriate subsection of Template:South Dakota Coyotes football navbox (even 2017 South Dakota Coyotes football team isn't that much different: the sole significant addition is a box-score for every single game (without any prose whatsoever), which is even more NOTSTATS than the basic table). And for thousands of other sports teams. I do not think this imparts much if any pertinent information to readers other than mere statistical minutiae (and, as a reader, statistical minutiae is not something I'd look for on Wikipedia - the various databases do their job well enough). It would be better if a way of combining those, either in the main team article, as I suggest above, or in some other grouping, would avoid having these as mere statistical dumps and encourage more thoughtful prose (including, if it exists, analysis from secondary sources and not just newspapers match reports). RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 02:59, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Typically, anti-sports editors complain that NSPORTS is way too inclusive and that our core notability policy at GNG should govern. .... but in this case, the topic clearly passes GNG and so the argument is made that meeting GNG is not enough because GNG is the "most inclusive possible criterion". Bottom line: some editors just don't like sports articles and want them deleted regardless of what our guidelines say. Cbl62 ( talk) 03:19, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Bottom-line, you've picked the most inclusive criterion that you think applies (since this clearly fails NSEASONS, then you're trying to argue that it meets GNG, since finding a few routine newspapers reports and sowing enough doubt that they could actually pass off as SIGCOV is not that difficult to attempt), but you actually haven't even addressed the GNG issue (because all of the sources are still routine coverage), not the more fundamental NOT issues (which you have entirely sidestepped). RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 03:24, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Bottom line: GNG is clearly satisfied with SIGCOV in multiple, reliable and independent sources. NSEASONS (as discussed below), like all of NSPORTS, is an inclusive standard that does not override GNG. As for WP:NOT, you have not even articulated which prong of that guideline you think applies, so it's rather difficult to reply to a vague hand-wave. Cbl62 ( talk) 03:52, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
No, routine match coverage in local newspapers is not SIGCOV. We don't write articles based on obituaries (even if these do contain "significant coverage"). We don't write articles about local fire services if the only thing that can be said about them is a fill-in-the-blanks "X fire service is responsible for firefighting in Y area." We don't (or shouldn't) write articles about local team sport seasons if the only thing that can be said is as in the template I've provided above. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a sports database (which is what those articles are and are likely to remain) and not a collection of routine coverage of events of little to no long-term significance. See also [22]. RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 17:43, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Feature articles are not routine.-- Paul McDonald ( talk) 20:10, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep I've expanded the article a bit with sources I was able to find, and there are now sixteen news sources in the article. This include coverage of every game and the team's notable achievements, as one of its players broke school and conference rushing records. There's also this article and this article, which aren't cited because I couldn't find a place for them in the current version of the article; both could be used to expand the article in the future. I'd say the article easily passes WP:GNG with those sources. As for WP:NSEASONS, that guidance hasn't reflected either community standards or known source coverage of college football in quite some time; the reality is that most seasons on teams in Division I, and even a handful on lower-division teams, will have enough coverage to pass GNG. TheCatalyst31 ReactionCreation 02:48, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Passes WP:GNG per the sourcing efforts of TheCatalyst31. While South Dakota was then a Division II team, it has been promoted to Division I which enhances the notability of the program and its history. Cbl62 ( talk) 03:04, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    WTF? Notability is not inherent, nor inherited, nor based on some sense of what is historically "significant" or not. I'm not even sure the two sentence statistical mentions are more than NOTSTATS and NOTNEWS stuff: these could probably be covered on some other, more relevant page (if it exists, I don't know, List of NCAA football records, or maybe even on South Dakota Coyotes football team - I'm sure if you combined all the non-trivial prose from all of the seasons article, you'd have plenty enough to write a decent section, and it probably wouldn't even be too much). The other sources are still routine match reports. RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 03:07, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Despite the vast improvement of this article to the point that it will soon be approaching GA status, it's clear you're unwilling to maintain an open mind and will stubbornly insist that every in-depth piece of SIGCOV that is added to the article is simply "routine" coverage. Rather than continuing to reply here, I'll just continue to improve the article. Best, Cbl62 ( talk) 18:30, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
No, this is a fundamental disagreement over what Wikipedia is and should be. How you're going about, you seem to think it should cover every event which happens to get mentioned somewhere in newspapers (yes, the local newspapers reporting on yesterday's football game is "routine", and there are thousands of such games every single year played by hundreds if not similarly thousands of different teams. Should we really have an article about each one of those teams providing details about each one of their routine games? I'll remind you we don't have that even for pro teams, much less for university teams anywhere but in the US...), acting as some form of sports pseudo-database or the like. This is probably not the place to fully expound upon why it shouldn't. RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 19:44, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Well, two points on that. One, college football in the United States should probably be understood as semi-professional. It can't really be compared to any other university sport with the possible exception of college basketball. Two, we do, in fact, have such articles about professional teams. See for example 2021 Kansas City Chiefs season. Mackensen (talk) 20:02, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
An AFD for one article is not the place for a discussion on "a fundamental disagreement over what Wikipedia is and should be" -- Paul McDonald ( talk) 20:09, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • @ RandomCanadian: Just so you know, nobody here (certainly not me) is suggesting that every college football season should have a stand-alone article. It's my general view that season articles should be restricted to Division I programs. There are some exceptions, however, where the coverage warrants stand-alone treatment. The four Dakota universities are among those exceptions, and in part based on the extensive coverage and following, all four of the Dakota universities have now been promoted to Division I.

  • Keep. As noted above, WP:NSEASONS doesn't reflect current practice. To the degree that subject notability guidelines are descriptive rather than prescriptive. this represents a problem best addressed at Wikipedia talk:Notability (sports), not here. A season article is a useful way of grouping information that otherwise belongs (potentially) in at least two places: the main article about the football team (which we all agree is notable), and, in ascending article, the main article about the conference during that season, or potentially the whole division. It could also be a useful container for information that would otherwise be located in articles about the head coach or some of the assistants, and also individual players. Most of these topics are presumptively notable. Breaking out that information into an individual season article doesn't change that. That the article started bare-bones doesn't signify; many articles start with a bare-bones structure, with the easy part done first. Mackensen (talk) 18:10, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Getting google books results for anytime the words "skid mount" are used in any context does not demonstrate WP:SIGCOV. These are mostly brief mentions of the fact that a skid mount was used, except for the first one, which appears to be about something else entirely, and the second one, which is a paper about a specific skid-mounted device, fine for verifiability, but not notability.

Firstly , Notability. The only source of any solidity is Pevsner; one line on the house, nothing on the garden.

    Comment, I think we should assume good faith towards Maypm, who created this article. If you look at their editing pattern, yes, they have created articles about two historical properties in Norfolk that have become wedding venues, but they have also created or worked on a variety of other articles, mostly about historical buildings. It is extremely common for such buildings to be used as wedding venues. Practically every house in Norfolk more than 100 years old and equipped with a garden big enough for a marquee is available to hire for your wedding if you want! If Maypm just happens to live in Norfolk and like writing about his/her local historical houses, they're doomed to writing about wedding venues, without this meaning that they are being WP:PAID. TheLongTone, if you think Maypm is being paid, the place to deal with it is probably an administrators' noticeboard, not AfD, but I don't think it'll hold much traction. Some of their other articles, for example Reymerston Hall, Norfolk are quite well balanced and historically informative. In general, the current commercial use of a property shouldn't count against its notability. Having said all that (and sorry about the rant!) there appears to be nothing useful to say about High House Gardens, Congham, so delete is reasonable. Elemimele ( talk) 19:16, 4 January 2022 (UTC) reply
I do assume good faith, but having looked at a couple of the editors other contribution I remain very doubtful. I cannot imagine why anybody should create an article ostensibly about a garden which in fact consists entirely of eyewateringly dull biographical details of the now demolished house's owners. TheLongTone ( talk) 13:10, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply
and I (sort of) apologise for removing all the references bar one; not intentional, but the baby went with the bathwater. TheLongTone ( talk) 13:13, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Mmm, been doing some thinking. Looking at the original article, before you trimmed it, TheLongTone, you are quite correct that it was about the house, not so much the garden. My personal guess is that the article's creator was either driving past, or attended a function at the garden, and is the sort of person who finds local history fascinating, so they got to work. There are two ways to handle this; one would be to restore the information about the house and its history, and rename (move) the article to Congham High House. But to do this, we'd have to be certain that the house and its history are notable, and that the article isn't original research. My feeling is that the house would be only borderline, and that the article was supported more by primary sources than secondary, so it does stray into the territory of writing that should be published as local history, not as encyclopaedia content. So I do still think (sadly) that delete might be the better option. I am sorry I got so grumpy yesterday! Elemimele ( talk) 17:15, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete On the one hand, it seems incredible to me that a murder and death-penalty case that involves such a hot-button issue as international adoption should not be notable. On the other hand, the article's sources show only two or maybe three sources that meet the usual notability requirements.

Advertorialized WP:BLP of an singer, not properly referenced as passing our inclusion criteria for singers. The notability claims here are that she was a non-winning competitor in a singing competition and otherwise just that her work exists, rather than any concrete evidence that she achived anything that would pass WP:NMUSIC -- and while the article also claims that she's an actress, it offers no indication whatsoever that she's ever done anything of note as an actress at all. And for sourcing, two of the six footnotes are to her own self-published website about herself and three more are of the "music metaverifying its own existence on Amazon.com" variety, which are not reliable or notability-building sources. And while there is one footnote to a real piece of media coverage here, it's a very short blurb nowhere near substantive enough to carry her over WP:GNG all by itself if it's the only acceptable source in the mix.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to be referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat ( talk) 22:30, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply

it was an anonymous request Saarik ( talk) 09:06, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply

There is a true need for the Finnish KANTO page, since it is an authority ID that is widely used on pages of Finnish publishers (see, for instance Erik_Allardt in Finnish (Suomi)). It would seem appropriate to have a similar item in English especially because there are people in Finland whose Finnish is not as good as their English. ( Reetakuu)

  • Redirect Based on a rather brief an informal search for sources (the name makes this difficult to search for, as it has more common meanings in both English and Finnish), I don't think this is going to pass WP:GNG. I'd suggest merging this into National Library of Finland for now. Note how many other authority files e.g. in Authority control#Examples also simply link to libraries. Later, if sufficient independent coverage materializes, a dedicated article might then be split off. I'd be happy to change my !vote to keep, though, if someone can point out independent coverage. - Ljleppan ( talk) 08:45, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply
The Kanto page is very similar in status and content as the corresponding database page of the German National library Integrated Authority File which was used as an example in creation of the Kanto page. If that page is ok, then the Kanto page should be, too. That page has existed since 2012 and is not much longer, either.
If similarities of the name is an issue, the title could be finaf which is the official code name for KANTO registered by LOC similar to "gnd" for the Gemeinsame Normdatei. If deletion is still supported, this content should be included in the National library page, and then a redirect added Saarik ( talk) 09:06, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply
" Other stuff exists" does not hold much weight in AfD discussions: there's plenty of content in Wikipedia and some is bound to be less than stellar. For GND in specific, I completely agree that the en-wiki page is far from great. The de-wiki page de:Gemeinsame Normdatei has a lot more references, even if it too seems to be lacking in the independent-coverage department. - Ljleppan ( talk) 09:36, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply

you seem to misunderstand. A page should not even be created unless there are 3rd party references to the subject of the page. We're not alking about references to the page itself, but the subject.

The other possibility, which could be pursued atmthe sametime, is to turn the list of national authority lists into a combination article. There will be the same problem in trying to make articles on most of them.

DGG ( talk ) 07:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Comment I did a slightly more comprehensive search of Finnish language academic resources than in my original comment above, and there are a few Finnish language publications that have passing mentions of KANTO, e.g. [3] [4]. But these are indeed very passing. The first one states that they used KANTO data in constructing another thing, and the second has a passing mention that translates along the lines of "Work on ontologies has continued in the National Library of Finland. For example, Finto's new KANTO ontology covers the authoritative names of the agents relating to materiel published in Finland, produced during the description of the national bibliography, including the authors of musical materiel" (the original Finnish sentence is either extremely confusing or has some mistake in it, I can't quite tell). A general list of national authority files sounds reasonable, so I'd also be happy with that as an alternative. - Ljleppan ( talk) 10:41, 27 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Speedy was declined and I somewhat expect the PROD to be challenged, so saving this step. Sole source is a PDF authored by someone with the last name that matches the article creator's. While I don't think this is necessarily UPE, other of the article creator's works have been found not to be notable and I don't find any indication that this subject is.

  • Delete - It is WP:TOOSOON for this emerging martial arts actor who is at the beginning stages of his career. Perhaps in the future, after he achieves notability in the way of significant coverage in reliable sources, wins some awards, etc. he will be ready for an article. When I saw the L.A. Times citation I was hopeful, but it consisted of a very brief mention and name check in photo captions which is not enough to pass WP criteria for WP:NACTOR. The other citations consist of a couple interviews, which as mentioned in the nom, are primary sources that don't contribute to notability; simple mentions that he is in the cast; or don't mention him at all, therefore, he also does not pass WP:GNG. Perhaps this can be revisited in a few more years after he is more established as an actor. Netherzone ( talk) 17:43, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply

This allows to broaden the research span of the journal along with serving multiple disciplines of the research. Since it was just launched in Jan 2022, it might be few months to be included in Scopus and Clarivate databases. I will keep a close watch on the database and journal's notability. However, I think we should give it due time before decision of deletion.

  • Delete - Almost incomprehensible. The article seems, on machine-translating the references, to be about a fictional universe, but does not consistently describe it as fiction, and is poorly organized.
  • An article should speak for itself as to why its subject matter is notable without the need for a reader to read the references. After all, the purpose of an encyclopedia is to contain information, not merely to be links to verifying information. This article does not speak for itself, because it is almost incomprehensible, but a review of the references shows that they mostly appear to be advertising the fiction and the fictional universe.

  • Redirect to Clifton, Michigan. The book Michigan Place Names (Romig 1986) has two separate listings for Cliff and Clifton. For Cliff, it states, "Keweenaw County; the village grew up around the Cliff Mine founded by the Pittsburg & Boston Company in 1844; named by John Hayes, a Pittsburg pharmacist turned prospector, from its location below a high bluff; one of the most profitable of copper mines, it was sold to the Cliff Mining Company in 1871, who in turn sold it to the Tamarack Mining Company in 1880; now the mine a ruin and its village a ghost town." For Clifton, it states, "Keweenaw County; the Clifton Mine (copper) was opened in 1852; the North American Mine post office was transferred to and renamed Clifton on Feb. 24, 1853... the Clifton Mine was closed in 1855 but the Clifton post office operated until Dec. 3, 1884." My only other source on the matter Michigan Ghost Towns (Dodge 1973) lists both communities, but for Cliff, it merely reads, "Cliff—See Clifton" and right below that has several paragraphs for Clifton. It sounds like they might have been separate but very similar communities. However, Cliff doesn't appear to have any useful information available, while Clifton has more information for its own article. — Notorious4life ( talk) 04:10, 23 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. You mean WP:NGEO? Keeping or deleting isn't decided on what's in the article, but on what's available. It was a recognized township, dsecribed as such in gazetteers [9]. It should be moved to Conner's Creek though, as that is the more common form of the name.

  • Comment The nomination is incorrect. The one thing listed under sources is not a discussion forum. It is a book that has entries on basically every place in Michigan, with an emphasis on the origin of the name, but it does tell a little about their history.

    • Do we really want redirects to people who were disqualified from the event? If we redirect every article that we have on a person who participated in the Olympics who does not meet notability guidelines, a category like Category:1912 births will end up being about a quarter redirects to various Olympic pages. At present only about 0.5% of that category consists of redirects. Actually it may be closer to 0.25%. It does not even average one redirect for every page of 200 articles in the category.

    • No, GNG is not always enough. There is a way to read GNG that would cause 100% of candidates for US house to pass it, and a very large percentage of candidates for state legislature, at least in states other than New Hampshire (New Hampshire has a very large legislature, I think the largest in the US, and yet it has about a 25th the size the population of California), to pass it. So there are clearly cases where theoretically passing GNG is not enough. Anyway no one here has claimed at all that there is any source that in any way would add towards this individual passing GNG, so it is a mute point. To be fair we have not yet done much analysis on what type of sources on non-medaling Olympians may or may not add towards passing GNG, this is in part because well over 50% of our articles on Olympians, at least among those before 1960, have only 1 source, and it is one of the sources here that we have ruled in no way can even be used to add towards passing GNG. Not one of the sources on this particular article would add towards passing GNG. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 13:58, 25 January 2022 (UTC) reply

I nominated this for deletion in 2000 due to what I saw as a lack of notability at the time and it was kept. Although the main crux of the keep votes came down to insulting me over the nomination, saying it must be notable because it it developed two FDA approved drugs, or similar WP:ILIKEIT and WP:INTERESTING arguments. No one that voted keep really discussed the sourcing except to provide a couple of extremely trivial ones that related to them being bought out by Pfizer and an article that has to do with a compound in one of their drugs that has nothing to do with them except for saying in the article that they came up with it. Both of which are extremely WP:MILL. As drug companies routinely create pharmaceutical compounds and get bought out by other drug companies. So, I'm re-nominating this in the hopes that a better consensus, based on an actual discussion about the companies notability or lack of it, can occur this time around. Hopefully without the insults and other nonsense that occurred in the last discussion.

Just to throw it out there, in the original AfD I suggested redirecting or merging this to Pfizer as an ATD. I still think that doing so is a good option compared to doing nothing. Since there is some coverage of the company, even if it's extremely trivial. I just don't think there is enough to justify a stand alone article though. So I'm fine with anyone voting merge or redirect if they think it's justified compared to deleting the article outright. Adamant1 ( talk) 02:40, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply

The Latvian Olympic Committee page on him (archived here; since the link is broken for me at least, and in order to use it as a reference, I junked the Wikidata external links template) is also a reliable source for his career, not only for his one Olympics appearance, and I added a local history reference that has details on what happened at the Olympics: he was one of three Latvians competing, they had been advanced automatically to the final, and his disqualification during the race was a surprise and was not explained. Curiously, that source has a varying death date for him, and the encyclopedia entry has a varying birth date; all other sources agree, so I merely left hidden notes in those references.

  • @ Glucken123 and Mightberightorwrong: can you comment on what notability criterion you think the subject passes, based on which sources? Russ Woodroofe ( talk) 13:26, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Russ Woodroofe: With all due respect, but your main argument that most articles on LipNet don't mention Assael's name is factually untrue. Let's see; the FT article highlights his name as one of the two lead researchers behind the development of Pythia [1]. How often do you come across experimental AI algorithms that are able to restore ancient Greek texts in a matter of seconds? That's why there is also a Wiki article on Pythia. In regards to the BBC article [2] on LipNet, not only mentions his name but also provides a quote from both researchers: Machine lip-readers have enormous potential, with applications in improved hearing aids, silent dictation in public spaces, covert conversations, speech recognition in noisy environments, biometric identification and silent-movie processing, wrote the researchers." That hyperlinked article is the PDF version of the pre-print publication, where Assael is evidently the lead author. I agree with your previous edit to remove Arxiv publications, but don't you agree that there is certainly some notability here? LipNet received national coverage in 2016 ( a simple Google search is always a good idea). I also agree that the article lacked notability in its previous state however even users who participated in the previous deletion proposal, voted against deleting it this time. The latest version is full of references that should do the trick. I hope my response was suitably diplomatic 😌 Glucken123 ( talk) 16:00, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Glucken123: it sounds like you are arguing that Assael meets WP:BASIC notability. (Well, with a side of WP:ILIKEIT.) That would require significant coverage of Assael from multiple independent reliable sources. The papers and preprints are not independent. The FT mentions Assael in passing (as I had previously said) but I think this is far short of WP:SIGCOV. I do not even see Assael's name anywhere in the BBC article -- perhaps I am missing something?? (Please tell me if I am!) I also do not see him mentioned in the other articles in reliable sources. It does look plausible to me that LipNet is notable, but notability is not inherited. I agree that a redirect could be a sensible alternative to deletion. Russ Woodroofe ( talk) 16:45, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Russ Woodroofe: You need to elaborate (oh, and define 'significant coverage' pls!). You are asking for significant coverage, but this does not always apply to all academics-researchers out there. After all I am using both the citation profile and sources to back my claims focused on WP:SIGCOV notability. The fact that BBC (and the FT) clearly highlight the achievements of AI algorithms developed by Yannis Assael (Pythia + LipNet as a lead author) is more than enough to link the person to the subject even in articles where his surname is not mentioned. It appears that LipNet was mainly developed by two people, same as Pythia. The hyperlink I was referring to, can be found right after the quotation [1] (click on wrote the researchers or look at the hyperlink). Like I said, preprint publications should not be used on Wikipedia - you're absolutely right on this. However, the notability of some preprint papers (as they are lauded by the BBC as a breakthrough achievement in lip reading applications) should be considered encyclopaedic content, hence the mentions in other reputable sources. IMO all the above-mentioned achievements meet the notability criteria fully. Glucken123 ( talk) 17:35, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Glucken123: academics can also reach notability through the WP:NPROF criteria, which I believe is what you are now referring to. This usually would require a high level of citations. How high depends somewhat on the field. Consensus in the last AfD from Wikipedians experienced with this set of criteria was that it is WP:TOOSOON for Assael in this regard. "Wrote the researchers" is not a mention of Assael, except very indirectly. I will answer some of your other questions about notability on your talk page. Russ Woodroofe ( talk) 18:16, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Russ Woodroofe: Absolutely - my point is that a medium level of citations alongside significant coverage on mainstream media can be combined in the case of Assael. AI is indeed a highly cited field and with the previous consensus, things could have been different indeed. In its current state, however, the article was significantly expanded as it presents evidence backed by solid references (and Forbes IMO also is reliable). It seems that we disagree about BBC, but that is ok. I will respond to your points on my talk page in a bit. Thanks! Glucken123 ( talk) 19:14, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Compared to the previous article there is now significant coverage about the person/research.

  • Delete The first AfD got it right here. Involved in a couple projects, but his actual role in them is unclear, and most of the press coverage is about the projects (many of the cited articles don't mention him at all). Nor would I call the press coverage in-depth; the item in The Verge is about the best of the lot, and it's only a brief interview. I sense a lot of churnalism and PR involved; these are the kinds of stories that don't even bother to seek out comment from someone not involved in the research. In principle, press reports could carry a researcher over the bar by talking about the work and not the person, but this is not the type of serious coverage that could qualify. His citation profile doesn't amount to a WP:PROF#C1 pass. XOR'easter ( talk) 07:36, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply

    • This is very common in academia, opening any of the links of the published work in those articles I see from the authors list that was led/co-led all the research mentioned. For example the the Verge article that you mention is about his work "LipNet". I think that 15 news articles from BBC, MIT Tech Review, New Scientist is a reasonable number to show the credibility of the press coverage. AntoniadK ( talk) 10:50, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
      • I will have to agree with AntoniadK on this. I find the comment on churnalism a little exaggerated and perhaps unnecessary? It does not look like PR at all. Theoretically speaking, the citation profile alongside the coverage can amount to a clear WP:PROF#C1 pass. On top of that there is clear proof that Assael is one of the two main researchers behind LipNet (check the research paper link on the BBC article) and Pythia, which is mentioned in the Financial Times piece. Birdsandwasps ( talk) 13:34, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
        • New Scientist is dross. MIT Technology Review is often not a lot better. In this case, the Tech Review item is just a blog post summarizing a few other webpages; so, it's not WP:SIGCOV. The BBC item was based entirely upon the researchers' own preprint and an Internet comment thread about it. Should we call that "in-depth reporting"? No, we should have the bare modicum of self-respect required not to debase ourselves that way. Learn what churnalism looks like. The media reporting here is nearly pure PR, recycled for easy clicks. XOR'easter ( talk) 18:43, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply

            • I've read them. "Generally reliable" is not universally reliable. Clicking one step further and reading the most recent discussion that the text at RSP is supposed to summarize, it turns out to be substantially harsher than the summary makes it sound. Setting that aside, which we probably shouldn't, the claim in question here is sensationalist and thus contentious, and so even WP:NEWSCIENTIST advises caution. WP:FORBES is beside the point: nobody questions that he really was listed on their "30 under 30". We're just saying that that isn't adequate to establish notability. The BBC story is so superficial that it doesn't matter whether it was originally motivated by a press release or not; it fails to be WP:SIGCOV. XOR'easter ( talk) 20:23, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
              • The most recent discussion does not indicate any disagreements about the use of WP:NEWSCIENTIST in WP. It's just a discussion, completely unrelated to the reliability of the source. Therefore, I suggest you read the conversation you provided as evidence as users agreed that it is too early to tell. Next. Glucken123 ( talk) 20:32, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                • "Completely unrelated"? A discussion where an editor says A lot what New Scientist does is frankly sensationalism and churnalism? And another editor stated They called me in two different occasions to ask for comments for an article, and badly misquoted me to make it more juicy? Sure sounds like a discussion of reliability to me. The sentiment was expressed that it was too early to tell whether being bought by the Daily Mail was bad, but no formal consensus was established in favor of that. And even if being bought by the Daily Mail has not changed them for the worse, they were already bad for contentious, controversial or sensationalist topics. XOR'easter ( talk) 21:26, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                  • Alright, let's try this again. Unless there is an official change in WP:NEWSCIENTIST, approved by other users, the article can still be used to back evidence in WP articles. So far, your comments have been somewhat.. volatile and counterproductive (see below [1] [2]). More specifically, the above response is just your own personal opinion as you are exclusively referring to comments shared by other users. All I can see is a big green light in WP:NEWSCIENTIST - pretty sure you can see that too. Imagine if others users looked at The Times or The Wall Street Journal (both green-lighted) and argued that, because of Rupert Murdoch they should not be used in WP articles anymore. This could only be made possible through a vote. Feel free to initiate that! Am I missing something here? I don't think so. Since this is a deletion discussion, why don't we stick to the policy and avoid any unnecessary POV, shall we? Glucken123 ( talk) 21:49, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                    • What is "volatile" or "counterproductive" about comparing one publication described as a publicity stunt/vanity scam with another that has often been described in the same way? Or in pointing out that there were strong negative comments in a discussion that the summary at WP:RSP gives no indication of? I can indeed plainly see that New Scientist is listed in green at WP:RSP. What I have been saying all along is that even if we ignore common sense and take that as absolute gospel, it's still not a source that contributes meaningfully to notability in this case.

                    • Addendum: the sources added here are interviews, which are generally seen as iffy for the purposes of establishing wiki-notability. Since the interviews were seemingly prompted by the Forbes "30 under 30", itself a dubious proposition, I can't quite say that they represent the world at large taking note of the article subject in a meaningful way (glomming onto somebody else's near-meaningless publicity isn't the same as coming to an independent judgment that someone's work is important). I sincerely thank the editor for putting in the work to find them, but I can't say that they sway my opinion. XOR'easter ( talk) 22:22, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                      • That is not true as the article from To Vima discusses achievements within the field, including his other future projects involving machine learning. The second article from Kathimerini pays tribute to Forbes 30 under 30 indeed, but also discusses his achievements. Other authors have provided reliable sources such as the FT, Verge and Independent. Glucken123 ( talk) 22:56, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                        • To Vima leads with the Forbes 30 under 30. Kathimerini explicitly chose to interview three people because they were on it. Ta Nea did the same thing (and apparently relied on Kathimerini for at least some of their information). These aren't sources, they're clones. As Russ Woodroofe argued above, the FT did not give significant coverage. The item in The Verge is a brief interview, so again dubious for wiki-notability purposes. The item in the Independent is seemingly reliable, but also pretty insubstantial (short, and failing the "get a comment from someone not involved in the research" test). XOR'easter ( talk) 23:16, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                          • Errr no! To Vima only mentions it as an achievement - it proceeds to discuss (in a long article completely unrelated to Forbes!) his research profile and projects. Kathimerini indeed interviewed the three Greeks because of Forbes 30 under 30, but still does not change the fact that it's the leading Greek newspaper! Finally, Ta Nea mentions Kathimerini in a different section - completely unrelated to Asssael. I did not say at any point that the Financial Times piece gives significant coverage. But together with other mentions (which are more than enough IMO) and his citation profile, could certainly make a strong case against a potential deletion of the article. Glucken123 ( talk) 23:25, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
                            • To Vima starts off with a non-achievement and treats it as an achievement, then provides some empty fawning; I can't honestly say that it's the kind of serious biographical profile which can help an interview count as a good source. I mention Ta Nea relying upon Kathimerini to indicate the shallowness of the reporting effort that seems to have gone into the blurbs they provided. The fundamental problem here is that we have a heap of superficial or otherwise mediocre sources, in a topic area that is rife with sensationalism. That's a bad foundation to try to build an article upon. XOR'easter ( talk) 23:49, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete, no significant change since my delete opinion in the previous AfD, other than the "Forbes 30 under 30" listing, on which I agree with the nominator that this sort of early-career publicity is inadequate for notability in the absence of anything else. If there were a single 30 under 30 listing for all discipline globally, it might be worth something, but they break it down into so many subcategories by specialty and region that it becomes meaningless publicity, almost a vanity scam. — David Eppstein ( talk) 18:57, 24 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete She clearly does not have the sourcing to pass GNG. She plays for the team of a Gibraltar. Let us not abuse the term "national team", and treat a team that looses to Liechstenstein like it is the same as one that is competitive against Brazil. We need to be logical in how we apply criteria, and if we start treating every member of every "national" team of a micro-state or a dinky overseas territory of another country as default notable the results will be absurd. If one of these "national" teams actually wins several international games, and maybe even is a contender in the world cup it will make sense, but acting like the team for a place with a population of 34,000 and an area of 2.6 square miles is in any sense a "national" team, especially when the place is an overseas dependency, is just not a realistic assessment of the situation involved. She is young, and so may well at some point play at a level that generates significant coverage, but we do not know that, we cannot predict the future, and we do not create articles until the coverage has actually come to be, not just because we think coverage likely.

    • She only played in a friendly, not even in a qualifier. And being one of the 11 (plus substitutes) best players at any given time is somewhat easier in a "country" of 32,000 people than in a country of millions of course. National teams like the one from Gibraltar have never come close to winning anything or to qualifying for any tournament, the players in the team are usually not important otherwise (don't play at a high level), and most importantly they don't get the coverage needed for an article.

  • Delete. Fram's and JPL's rationales are spot-on. Meeting NFOOTY is irrelevant if GNG is failed, and no one has produced evidence of SIGCOV.

    Hey I did some research and found some more reference to the subject on google. I think that if given some time, more sources and references would come up. May be it would be a good idea to hold the deletion for a few weeks. That is my opinion. Wiki3editor1986 ( talk) 09:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Hey @ Kavyansh.Singh
  • Nice to hear from you. I do understand your concern about the GNG, however, in my research, I found that the subject got an award. And the citation number [4] is the list of people who got the award in 2021 with a short description of what they were awarded. The list was published in The Print, which I guess is a reliable and a notable source. Your citation number [3] is of Republic World pray explain how it is un-reliable. Further more, when I tried to improve the article, the popup suggested that we source from Google, and you are suggesting that Google Knowledge Graph is unreliable, this has gotten me confused. As even now, as I am trying to understand, there is a suggestion under the name Priyanka Saha near the top of this page that is suggesting we find sources from Google. Sincerely I am scratching my head in confusion. Wiki3editor1986 ( talk) 10:48, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Hi @ Wiki3editor1986, sorry for being bit unclear in my previous comment. So, Google is merely a search engine. It (almost) provides all the sources available on the internet. Google itself is not a source. The top of this article says that you can find sources through Google. Don't use Google or Google knowledge panel as a source. As for The Print citation, yes, it is generally reliable. But, (1) it just has a passing mention of the topic, that is, it does not provides information about the topic in detail. It is fine to use that source to cite that she received that award. But, it does not help establish the notability. (2) If the India Icon Awards, had itself been notable per Wikipedia standards, it would have helped in assertion of notability. But that award is itself not notable, thus we can't claim that the subject is notable as she won that award. And as for the Republic World/Republic TV source, per WP:REPUBLICTV, "[in 2021,] there was a consistent and overwhelming consensus to deprecate Republic TV. [Republic TV] Editors cite hoaxes, fake news, fabrication, misinformation and conspiracy theories.". Thus, it should not be used. – Kavyansh.Singh ( talk) 11:35, 22 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    Thank You @ Kavyansh.Singh for clarifying. My opinion in the matter was, as my research yielded some sources that were not originally in the article, it might so be that more would come and they might be reliable and verifiable as per the standards. So in place of deleting the page immediately, would it not be better to draftify per WP:HEY as @ FormalDude suggested and let the article provider improve on it, make proper and verifiable citations over time and re-submit for review?

Going by GNG and the notability guidelines for creative professionals and for teachers in higher education, the subject does not seem notable. Most attention in RSes has been about allegations of sexual misconduct, and the only thing in the article apart from the lead is a section about those allegations. Seeing as he's not been convicted of anything and seems to be a fairly low-profile individual, the section is a BLPvio; apart from that, there is no real substance in the article. There is only one ref from RS that's directly about him (cite no. 1) and even that is very bare-bones. Searches on JSTOR and TWL return nothing of note either, so the article should be deleted. W.

  • Tentative Delete - Two sources provided. One is an archive of what appears to be a fan-run website without an editorial process. The other is an article from the New York Times, which, if it contained the information in question, would be a clear indication of notability. The trouble I have is that I clicked the PDF linked in the article, and nothing I see there mentions soccer in any way... the PDF talks about golf, yachting, polo, track and field, baseball, and a racist crime report, but no soccer (or association football) that I can see. Now, this PDF is only a clipping from the newspaper, and its entirely possible that the newpaper did talk about this soccer team on that day, and it's just not in the PDF... but there's nothing here as far as I can see.

Draft which was moved to mainspace in quite a WP:POINTY manner. No prose whatsoever beyond a textual restatement of statistics included in the infobox. Each year, there are hundreds if not thousands of university sports teams, and most of their seasons are not independently notable. There is no indication how this one is supposedly outstanding enough that it warrants an article. Fails WP:NOTSTATS, WP:NSEASONS and WP:RUNOFTHEMILL. None of the sources are anything but routine match coverage, also failing WP:SIGCOV. RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 00:58, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply

    Nonsense. The sources in the article are routine match reports (something which is easily verifiable from their dates and their contents) and do not meet SIGCOV. RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 01:09, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - In light of the expansion and sourcing, this meets WP:GNG. Fieari ( talk) 23:42, 23 January 2022 (UTC) Delete - Looking at the South Dakota Coyotes football page, I could see an argument for having an article for the 1973, 1985, 1986, 2006, 2017, and 2021 seasons... but not other years than these. (I could also see an argument for having an article on none of these.) This does seem to fail WP:NSEASONS, which specifies that top college teams can have articles on years they went to championship-- this is not such. Honestly, I rather wish wikipedia did allow indiscriminate lists of facts like this as long as reliable verifiability is met (in which case we would keep this article), but that's a discussion for elsewhere. Current standards say no. Alas. Fieari ( talk) 01:49, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Fieari: In light of the substantial expansion of the article and arguments below, would you be willing to give this a second look? Cbl62 ( talk) 19:11, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Yep, I'll change my !vote above. Fieari ( talk) 23:42, 23 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Question. The standard proposed by Fieari would imply the deletion of many thousands of articles. I'm not raising OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, I'm saying that WP:NSEASONS doesn't describe current reality, in which individual season articles are created for every team at the Division I FBS level, and a goodly number at the FCS level (which this is, more or less). You could do a merge into an article about South Dakota Coyotes seasons in the 1970s, and in fact NSEASONS suggests that outcome, but that may not make for a good experience for the reader. I suppose what I'm saying is that while RandomCanadian has a reasonable and valid point grounded in policy and guidelines, those policies and guidelines don't match the facts on the ground. Under those circumstances, I think the movement to mainspace is less pointy and more the frustrated reaction of an editor who's not sure why this season of South Dakota football is being singled out for special treatment, as opposed to the other 73. Mackensen (talk) 02:04, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Mackensen: It has always been understood that the entirety of NSPORTS (including NSEASONS) is an inclusive standard, rather than an exclusive season. If a season receives SIGCOV in multiple, reliable sources, it qualifies as notable under GNG, regardless of whether or not it falls within NSEASONS. Cbl62 ( talk) 02:32, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Also, NSEASONS is drafted to cover all college sports, and in most sports, the coverage is such that most season articles would not pass GNG. College football is different in that the SIGCOV is far more extensive, such that Division I football seasons almost certainly pass GNG. GNG is the real measure that needs to be applied here. Cbl62 ( talk) 02:39, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Picking the most inclusive possible criterion misses the point. Meeting GNG is not enough if it fails WP:NOT (as it does in this case), or if it can more effectively be handled on some other page instead of having a separate page of its own (as brightly explained on WP:N). NSEASONS (although it might need minor improvements) is one of the few parts of NSPORTS which is actually helpful in figuring out whether something should really have a stand-alone article or if it would better be covered elsewhere. I wouldn't be opposed to having a summary of the team's history and major sporting achievements in its article, but thousands upon thousands of run-of-the-mill model, like this:
Year Run-of-the-mill football team

The Year Run-of-the-mill football team represented the University of Run-of-the-mill in the Year NCAA Division X sports season as a member of the Random College Conference (RCC). Led by Xth-year coach John Doe, the Run-of-the-mills compiled an overall record of A-B and a mark of X-Y in conference play, placing Nth in the RCC.

[insert schedule and results table here]

This is the basic format of almost every page in the appropriate subsection of Template:South Dakota Coyotes football navbox (even 2017 South Dakota Coyotes football team isn't that much different: the sole significant addition is a box-score for every single game (without any prose whatsoever), which is even more NOTSTATS than the basic table). And for thousands of other sports teams. I do not think this imparts much if any pertinent information to readers other than mere statistical minutiae (and, as a reader, statistical minutiae is not something I'd look for on Wikipedia - the various databases do their job well enough). It would be better if a way of combining those, either in the main team article, as I suggest above, or in some other grouping, would avoid having these as mere statistical dumps and encourage more thoughtful prose (including, if it exists, analysis from secondary sources and not just newspapers match reports). RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 02:59, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Typically, anti-sports editors complain that NSPORTS is way too inclusive and that our core notability policy at GNG should govern. .... but in this case, the topic clearly passes GNG and so the argument is made that meeting GNG is not enough because GNG is the "most inclusive possible criterion". Bottom line: some editors just don't like sports articles and want them deleted regardless of what our guidelines say. Cbl62 ( talk) 03:19, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Bottom-line, you've picked the most inclusive criterion that you think applies (since this clearly fails NSEASONS, then you're trying to argue that it meets GNG, since finding a few routine newspapers reports and sowing enough doubt that they could actually pass off as SIGCOV is not that difficult to attempt), but you actually haven't even addressed the GNG issue (because all of the sources are still routine coverage), not the more fundamental NOT issues (which you have entirely sidestepped). RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 03:24, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Bottom line: GNG is clearly satisfied with SIGCOV in multiple, reliable and independent sources. NSEASONS (as discussed below), like all of NSPORTS, is an inclusive standard that does not override GNG. As for WP:NOT, you have not even articulated which prong of that guideline you think applies, so it's rather difficult to reply to a vague hand-wave. Cbl62 ( talk) 03:52, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
No, routine match coverage in local newspapers is not SIGCOV. We don't write articles based on obituaries (even if these do contain "significant coverage"). We don't write articles about local fire services if the only thing that can be said about them is a fill-in-the-blanks "X fire service is responsible for firefighting in Y area." We don't (or shouldn't) write articles about local team sport seasons if the only thing that can be said is as in the template I've provided above. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a sports database (which is what those articles are and are likely to remain) and not a collection of routine coverage of events of little to no long-term significance.

Feature articles are not routine.-- Paul McDonald ( talk) 20:10, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep I've expanded the article a bit with sources I was able to find, and there are now sixteen news sources in the article. This include coverage of every game and the team's notable achievements, as one of its players broke school and conference rushing records. There's also this article and this article, which aren't cited because I couldn't find a place for them in the current version of the article; both could be used to expand the article in the future. I'd say the article easily passes WP:GNG with those sources. As for WP:NSEASONS, that guidance hasn't reflected either community standards or known source coverage of college football in quite some time; the reality is that most seasons on teams in Division I, and even a handful on lower-division teams, will have enough coverage to pass GNG. TheCatalyst31 ReactionCreation 02:48, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Passes WP:GNG per the sourcing efforts of TheCatalyst31. While South Dakota was then a Division II team, it has been promoted to Division I which enhances the notability of the program and its history. Cbl62 ( talk) 03:04, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    WTF? Notability is not inherent, nor inherited, nor based on some sense of what is historically "significant" or not. I'm not even sure the two sentence statistical mentions are more than NOTSTATS and NOTNEWS stuff: these could probably be covered on some other, more relevant page (if it exists, I don't know, List of NCAA football records, or maybe even on South Dakota Coyotes football team - I'm sure if you combined all the non-trivial prose from all of the seasons article, you'd have plenty enough to write a decent section, and it probably wouldn't even be too much). The other sources are still routine match reports. RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 03:07, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Despite the vast improvement of this article to the point that it will soon be approaching GA status, it's clear you're unwilling to maintain an open mind and will stubbornly insist that every in-depth piece of SIGCOV that is added to the article is simply "routine" coverage. Rather than continuing to reply here, I'll just continue to improve the article. Best, Cbl62 ( talk) 18:30, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
No, this is a fundamental disagreement over what Wikipedia is and should be. How you're going about, you seem to think it should cover every event which happens to get mentioned somewhere in newspapers (yes, the local newspapers reporting on yesterday's football game is "routine", and there are thousands of such games every single year played by hundreds if not similarly thousands of different teams. Should we really have an article about each one of those teams providing details about each one of their routine games? I'll remind you we don't have that even for pro teams, much less for university teams anywhere but in the US...), acting as some form of sports pseudo-database or the like. This is probably not the place to fully expound upon why it shouldn't. RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 19:44, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Well, two points on that. One, college football in the United States should probably be understood as semi-professional. It can't really be compared to any other university sport with the possible exception of college basketball. Two, we do, in fact, have such articles about professional teams. See for example 2021 Kansas City Chiefs season. Mackensen (talk) 20:02, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
An AFD for one article is not the place for a discussion on "a fundamental disagreement over what Wikipedia is and should be" -- Paul McDonald ( talk) 20:09, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • @ RandomCanadian: Just so you know, nobody here (certainly not me) is suggesting that every college football season should have a stand-alone article. It's my general view that season articles should be restricted to Division I programs. There are some exceptions, however, where the coverage warrants stand-alone treatment. The four Dakota universities are among those exceptions, and in part based on the extensive coverage and following, all four of the Dakota universities have now been promoted to Division I.

  • Keep. As noted above, WP:NSEASONS doesn't reflect current practice. To the degree that subject notability guidelines are descriptive rather than prescriptive. this represents a problem best addressed at Wikipedia talk:Notability (sports), not here. A season article is a useful way of grouping information that otherwise belongs (potentially) in at least two places: the main article about the football team (which we all agree is notable), and, in ascending article, the main article about the conference during that season, or potentially the whole division. It could also be a useful container for information that would otherwise be located in articles about the head coach or some of the assistants, and also individual players. Most of these topics are presumptively notable. Breaking out that information into an individual season article doesn't change that. That the article started bare-bones doesn't signify; many articles start with a bare-bones structure, with the easy part done first. Mackensen (talk) 18:10, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep sources in the article pass WP:GNG. I understand the nominator disagrees with that position. I leave it to the closer to determine.-- Paul McDonald ( talk) 19:12, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Weak Keep now that more referencing has been added and the prose has been built out. I still don't hate the idea of seasons such as this being rolled into an over article of a program's history. I also think that this nomination is far more WP:POINTY than moving the draft to the main space. GPL93 ( talk) 19:42, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. This article, while it may be a less than run of the mill season for a D2 school, is pretty well sourced with independent, reliable publications (some of which may be routine, but I think it still passes WP:GNG.) I will concede that there is a slight aspect of WP:FANCRUFT to the article, but it doesn't rise to the level of deletion. Spf121188 ( talk) 20:20, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply
