Article about a company that lacks appropriate sourcing to meet the relevant guideline,
WP:NCORP. The sources aren't independent in
WP:ORGIND sense, as they are mostly fundraising announcemnets that provide no independent "opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject.

- Solely significant coverage isn't enough to make a company notable. The latter link is indeed about what they do, but it isn't independent content (as required by NCORP), because they are telling what they do, not to mention that the source reads like a press release (which also can't be used to establish notability). Now, I can't access the Forbes source because it's paywalled, but looking at the title, I doubt any independent content will turn up, and even if it magically does, it's still only one source (though I've asked for an archive at
Wikipedia:Discord). Please don't go through the "but it meets the GNG" route, because
WP:SNG (literally the section under GNG) says that companies still need to meet the strict source guidelines that are on NCORP.

- The Forbes link has no paywall for that article. I just clicked it and its still working fine. Significant coverage in a reliable source. And

- So basically you're saying that NCORP is useless. xD I still can't access the Forbes source: I can see it for 5 seconds before I get a membership notification blocking the whole screen which I can't click away. Your above response makes it clear there isn't any independent content anyway, and I can actually see that the source is written by contributors, which also puts its reliability in doubt too.
- Coming back to this GNG/SNG thing, again, per
WP:SNG, subject-specific guidelines in some cases "
help clarify when a standalone article can or should be written
". They "can also provide examples of sources and types of coverage considered significant for the purposes of determining notability, such as [...] the strict significant coverage requirements spelled out in the SNG for organizations and companies
". GNG requires reliable, independent and significant coverage. This company doesn't meet the GNG, because the available sourcing isn't considered to be independent for such subjects ( WP:ORGIND). ~Styyx Talk? 15:42, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

The Venturebaeat article noted above is a rehashed press release. This leaves only the original 3 sources in the article. The Telegraph is behind a pay wall, but given the other two, are weak sources for establishing notability, even if the Telegraph aticle is a very good source, on aggregate depth of ceverage is just not there. -- Whpq ( talk) 12:35, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

Completely unsourced article about a television film, not making any serious claim to passing either
WP:NFILM or
WP:TVSHOW. As always, films (whether for TV or theatrical) are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they have pages on IMDb -- they need to have
reliable source coverage about them in real media, establishing a reason why they would pass a notability criterion (notable film or television awards, critical analysis by professional film or television critics, etc.)
This literally just states that the film exists and cites absolutely no
WP:GNG-worthy sourcing, but even after having searched all of Google, ProQuest and Newspapers.com, I just can't find any sources that would make a difference: I can only find television listings grids and glancing namechecks of its existence in broad overviews of Lisa Rinna's career, which isn't the kind of sourcing that's needed.

- Delete No teams confer notability per se. What shows something is notable is coverage in reliable secondary sources that is significant about the person and is also independent of them. So an interview with someone published somewhere is not going to work, and if the publication is their employer it will not work. The exact point that publications become independent is sometimes disputed. People do not become notable because they play on a specific team, or are part of a competition, notability comes from coverage in reliable secondary sources for doing so. The first vote should not be "speedy keep" but procedural keep. However since the individual nominations are presneted individually, there is no reason to link them or to kill them just because they came quickly. If only we had a similar rule on speed of creating new articles. What probably happened in the nominator spent a lot of time reviewing available sources and then did all the nominations at once. This regularly happens. The only way we can justify keeping this article is if someone presents some in-depth coverage of this person in a sources that is independent, reliable and secondary, and we need more than one source, with the 2 sources independent of each other, to really keep the article. It makes sense to go through the football categories starting with one place, since to search for sources on people from a given place, you need to search at times in specific databases that cover that place, so systemically going through one place and then another makes sense. It allows you to build up your knowledge of where to search and not have a steep learning curve for each nomination. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:15, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

The result was delete. As in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Administrative divisions of the Donetsk People's Republic: The "keep" case is weak: it makes reference only to publications by this self-declared government. These are not sources that are independent from the subject of the article, and therefore not reliable sources. In the absence of such sources, WP:V mandates deletion.

This is an unreferenced fork of Luhansk People's Republic#Administrative divisions, which cites only unreliable sources; unencyclopedic; it’s like WP:SYNTH but not from reliable sources, giving the appearance of legitimacy to a fake country; borderline WP:HOAX. This information is not found in WP:reliable sources
This is a detailed expansion of a decree by the “authorities” in a Russian puppet state in Ukraine about territories they only partially control, which can be summed up in a single line in the main article: “the DNR authorities issued a decree rejecting Ukraine's 2020 reform of administrative divisions in Luhansk Oblast and only recognize the older division into raions: see Administrative divisions of Luhansk Oblast#Administrative divisions until 2020.”

- Oppose.
The state statistical serviceA decree of the head of LNR is a reliable source for the administrative division of LNR - which currently controls the entirety of Luhansk oblast. The official Ukrainian administrative division is different and it should be, and is, described in another article. The fact that LNR isn't recognised is irrelevant, other unrecognised states have articles about their administrative divisions, e.g., Administrative divisions of Somaliland.

- If the question is about the notability of the topic, I think that there is a precedent in Wikipedia that the administrative division of states, including unrecognised ones, is a notable topic.
- By the way, multiple Russian secondary sources reported on this decree, e.g.

- Russian sources are under a draconian régime of censorship, and are not reliable on Ukraine, the Russian war in Ukraine, or the Kremlin’s proxies there. If only Russian sources report on this, then that is not an indicator of WP:Notability (and perhaps a positive counter-indication), which requires sources “that are independent of the subject.” See Media freedom in Russia#Coverage on Ukraine. — Michael Z. 14:52, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - Again, this article is both (1) useless and (2) fringe. It should be deleted promptly. The comparison to Somaliland is extremely offensive. Apples to oranges, people. Somaliland isn't a puppet state of some larger empire. It is a part of the ethnic-Somali realm that broke away due to a civil dispute with other Somalis in the rest of Somalia, essentially. There is no obvious foreign agent operating in Somaliland; their cause for independence is almost entirely domestic. The same cannot be said about Luhansk PR, which has been firmly under Russia's grip from the very beginning. Jargo Nautilus ( talk) 07:02, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

- The show doesn't have a big presence in the broadsheets because they rarely talk about kids TV, and the tens of thousands of kids who watch the show don't have social media accounts to talk about the show because - well - they're 4 years old. This page was meant as a resource for interested parents because as a parent I often use Wikipedia to look up information on other kids tv shows. It was mentioned in the Guardian a few years back during it's earlier phase of development in reference to British Tax breaks.

Previous AfD was closed as Keep, which was overturned in Deletion Review.
I find the idea of keeping this article nothing short of scandalous. Fails WP:GNG, clear case of WP:PROMOTION and WP:COI. It was written by Łukaszyk himself, and is about his own PhD thesis. It was already deleted for these reasons back in 2009, after which Łukaszyk restored the article.
In the previous AfD Łukaszyk bombarded the page with irrelevant references, which were merely citing his paper. To satisfy WP:GNG a citation is not enough, one needs significant coverage, that addresses the topic directly and in detail. I managed to find a single arXiv pre-print [10] that gives it significant coverage. As it is not published, it doesn't count as a reliable source for the purposes of WP:GNG. Still, I find it interesting to remark that this pre-print dismisses the "Lukaszyk-Karmowski metric", which is not a metric, as a mistaken version of the well-known expected absolute difference, which is in fact a metric.
I think it's also important to mention that in the previous AfD all legitimate participants !voted Delete. All Keep !votes came from WP:SPAs or users that Łukaszyk WP:CANVASSED from the Polish Wikipedia. Łukaszyk has since then been blocked for sockpuppetry. Tercer ( talk) 20:22, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Whoo boy. The title is, as far as I could tell,
citogenesis: the scattered mentions in the literature all came after the author named the Wikipedia page after himself (and his PhD advisor). Letting that stand wouldn't just violate guidelines or policies, but the ethos of building a trustworthy encyclopedia. None of the lengthy discussion of properties, examples, or "Physical interpretation" is justified by secondary sources. The Moyer–Landauer business is
synthesis. Combine the bad title with the unsupported content, and there's nothing to save.

As it happens, Google Scholar (which is generally very permissive in what it reports, since they try to scrape everything) finds no citations to Łukaszyk's "A new concept of probability metric and its applications in approximation of scattered data sets" from 2004, the year it was published, through 2008.

- Postpone I feel the situation as deeply unfair. The article in question has been kept in the previous discussion. Then the author was blocked for 21 days for formal reasons, and the discussion was restarted with no new argument for the deletion, yet without any chance for the author to defend it. Without going into whether this ban was justified, everybody should have a chance to defend, and the discussion in the current form would be strongly biased. I believe the discussion should be postponed until the ban of the author is lifted, or there should be some other way offered to
Guswan of taking part in the discussion. By proxy? By declared new account used for this discussion only?
Olaf (

Wikipedia:Canvassing. All of your suggested options would amount to circumventing a block and violating Wikipedia's procedures once again. Per the

this is nothing more than list cruft - we don't usually include massive bibliographies for authors who are of questionable notability much less those who's works have not received critical coverage - this is a list of basically everything she's ever touched even minor short stories on blogs which are self published among other things.

It had been bounced from Drafts to mainspace and was eventually up at AfD, as a result of which the article was soft-deleted due to minimal participation.

- Delete - I agree with Richhoncho above. Per the guidelines at Wikipedia:WikiProject Discographies, lists of unreleased songs are never included in Discography articles, at least not any of the good ones. If there is ever a list article called List of songs recorded by Lil Peep, which would have different requirements, those unreleased songs for which there is reliable info could be included. Unreleased songs for which there is nothing but speculation can be left at fansites. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 14:06, 1 August 2022 (UTC)

Non-notable reality TV contestant ( Top Chef: Portland). Placed 10/15. Only notable for that one appearance (WP:ONEEVENT). Wani ( talk) 14:54, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- I would encourage you to try Google, where you'll quickly see there's plenty of coverage about him, his TV appearances (Beat Bobby Flay, probably others), his multiple notable restaurants, etc., not to mention he was named Chef of the Year by Eater Portland. I'm not suggesting this one title makes him notable, but it is inaccurate for you to say coverage is limited to his Top Chef appearance, IMO. I'll let others decide the fate of this article, but the redirect serves a purpose so deleting the page altogether is unnecessary. ---
Another Believer (
Talk) 15:25, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Why didn't you include any of this additional information in the article? So, he has two credited appearances on TV, so I acknowledge WP:ONEEVENT doesn't technically stand, but I don't see how a single appearance on Beat Bobby Flay really changes things. "Probably others" is obviously vague. His restaurants have received local praise from Portland/Oregon-based websites, but I don't see how they're notable beyond that. Same thing with the Eater Portland award. Local praise from a local website. Even Top Chef itself made light of it.

Tagged for notability since 2014. A brief look at the edit history shows that someone claiming to be Albert Doda has, on multiple occasions, tried to get the article deleted. See also User talk:Temrk. The article is currently a stats stub and searches in Google Images, Google News and ProQuest yielded nothing useful at all. DDG had some Albanian news stories but none of them appear to be about this particular Albert Doda. The article should be deleted per WP:GNG, WP:SPORTBASIC and per WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE. Soccerway only shows him playing in one game, which, even prior to the changes in WP:NSPORT recently, wouldn't have been good enough for a stand-alone article per WP:WINNEROUTCOMES.

Can't find any significant coverage and, since WP:NFOOTBALL is deprecated (bear in mind he only played 49 mins in the second tier of Albania so it's one of the weakest passes possible), WP:GNG is required and so a Soccerway stats stub is no longer acceptable unless significant coverage can be located. I searched using multiple search engines but couldn't find anything better than a passing mention in a crime news story in My London. The age of "Uesti Cenaj" matches the details for this footballer so it's likely that they are the same person but the level of coverage is insufficient for GNG and he doesn't meet the criteria at WP:PERPETRATOR.

This is not a valid disambiguation page: all entries are WP:Partial title matches not known solely as "Jamiat". The definition given is unsourced. An alternative to deletion might be a {{ Wiktionary redirect}} to wikt:جمع Shhhnotsoloud ( talk) 08:40, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

- I don't think WP:Partial title match is a reason to delete, because one of the reasons for the different spellings in English is different methods of transliteration. This issue comes up with many Anglicizations of Arabic words. This is evidenced by the fact that another disambiguation/definition page exists titled Jamaat which appears to be doing the same thing as this page and a little bit better in my opinion. So actually I think it would make more sense to merge it with that. Chagropango ( talk) 12:43, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. The
Jamaat example is unconvincing; those titles are partial title matches as well. Under the current guidelines, there is no need for disambiguation unless some of these entities are known as simply 'Jamiat'. A Wiktionary redirect or splitting into 'List of' articles (including 'Jamaat'?) would be viable alternatives.

- I agree with HenryCrun that more investigation in a case like this is required, so I will try to see what I can confirm:
- The Boston College Magazine source we have: [13].
- I cannot confirm through Google a connection between "Heather Matthews" and the Manchester Mirror. Might of course only be established in print.
- John Clayton was indeed a columnist on the New Hampshire Union Leader during this period. No online archives available.
- The Front Porch appears to be a daily interview show on local radio. I have no difficulty believing Walters interviewed Yuenger, but its use as a reliable source is very questionable.
- WNDS News Now appears to be a news TV program ( example). I've never seen something like this used as a source before, and I'm not sure how it would stand.
- All of these sources being local, I feel fairly comfortable !voting Delete for this article, as a subject that is only of local interest. Most of these publications/programs have very little established presence within their (international) cultural sphere. If someone came in and gave more context on these sources, I might change my mind. ~ Maplestrip/Mable ( chat) 13:20, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Should we rollback all the way down back to this revision? Alexphangia Talk 07:16, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep in some form. I can see why this mess got nominated but this article wasn't always like this and there is scope to get it back on track. Alexphangia's suggestion is plausible. If we were to revert to that version, remove the red "flag of" links and strip out any duplicates then that would certainly be an improvement. We could then go through the current version and see which of the more recently added flags are demonstrably valid. That might not be easy as it is perfectly legitimate for people to upload self-created versions of flags and it is not obvious who is basing them on real flags with official status. I picked one of the Armenian ones as a test. (The fact that it had a lot of magenta in it made me wonder how genuine it was given that pure magenta is not a colour normally seen in genuine flags with a long history as it is a relatively new colour only made possible with modern pigments.) Is there any provenance to prove it genuine? Not that I can see? Is it fake? I doubt it. It is in multiple articles in multiple languages. You would think that somebody would have noticed. Is it official or unofficial? Your guess is as good as mine. I don't want to accuse anybody of deliberately uploading fake flags but we do need to take care that we don't conflate unofficial flags with official ones. -- DanielRigal ( talk) 13:25, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

Neutral– A few publications do mention Sam and Fuzzy as though it were a familiar title. Destructoid, Bleeding Cool, Polygon... None of these are particularly useful to write an article with, though.

- Delete. Destructoid and Polygon are brief passing mentions, Bleeding Cool even less so; neither are even worth adding to the article. I did find a useful mention from the
Rome News-Tribune
from 2005. The
The Martlet piece is non-trivial. There was also an article in a journal article Sam and Fuzzy (viewable
on ProQuest), and it's also non-trivial. To sum up, a student newspaper, a journal article, and a newspaper article. Quoted from
WP:RSSM:
A topic which can be sourced exclusively to student media, with no evidence of wider coverage in mass market general interest media, is not likely to be viewed as notable.
I would say that Sam and Fuzzy is not a notable web cartoon based on my analysis of coverage. SWinxy ( talk) 03:47, 27 July 2022 (UTC)- This actually makes me change my !vote to a Keep. The brief mentions in popular online magazines show wider interest, while the newspaper articles go more in-depth. I completely missed the Martlet article at first. ~ Maplestrip/Mable ( chat) 12:31, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
- I had hopes for the academic piece, but it's just uses the story as an example in this short (if academic) essay. Not SIGCOV. The Martlet piece is, let's face it, a student media blog level type of notice. I am not impressed. The RNT I can't access properly and it looks like the epitome of local, niche media. Even if we cobble all of this together I think we fall too short of notability. This is IMHO not the case of borderline, but still too little.

- Solely significant coverage isn't enough to make a company notable. The latter link is indeed about what they do, but it isn't independent content (as required by NCORP), because they are telling what they do, not to mention that the source reads like a press release (which also can't be used to establish notability). Now, I can't access the Forbes source because it's paywalled, but looking at the title, I doubt any independent content will turn up, and even if it magically does, it's still only one source (though I've asked for an archive at
Wikipedia:Discord). Please don't go through the "but it meets the GNG" route, because

- So basically you're saying that NCORP is useless. xD I still can't access the Forbes source: I can see it for 5 seconds before I get a membership notification blocking the whole screen which I can't click away. Your above response makes it clear there isn't any independent content anyway, and I can actually see that the source is written by contributors, which also puts its reliability in doubt too.
- Coming back to this GNG/SNG thing, again, per
WP:SNG, subject-specific guidelines in some cases "
help clarify when a standalone article can or should be written
". They "can also provide examples of sources and types of coverage considered significant for the purposes of determining notability, such as [...] the strict significant coverage requirements spelled out in the SNG for organizations and companies
". GNG requires reliable, independent and significant coverage. This company doesn't meet the GNG, because the available sourcing isn't considered to be independent for such subjects ( WP:ORGIND). ~Styyx Talk? 15:42, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

Completely unsourced article about a television film, not making any serious claim to passing either
WP:NFILM or
WP:TVSHOW. As always, films (whether for TV or theatrical) are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they have pages on IMDb -- they need to have
reliable source coverage about them in real media, establishing a reason why they would pass a notability criterion (notable film or television awards, critical analysis by professional film or television critics, etc.)
This literally just states that the film exists and cites absolutely no
WP:GNG-worthy sourcing, but even after having searched all of Google, ProQuest and Newspapers.com, I just can't find any sources that would make a difference: I can only find television listings grids and glancing namechecks of its existence in broad overviews of Lisa Rinna's career, which isn't the kind of sourcing that's needed.

- Delete No teams confer notability per se. What shows something is notable is coverage in reliable secondary sources that is significant about the person and is also independent of them. So an interview with someone published somewhere is not going to work, and if the publication is their employer it will not work. The exact point that publications become independent is sometimes disputed. People do not become notable because they play on a specific team, or are part of a competition, notability comes from coverage in reliable secondary sources for doing so. The first vote should not be "speedy keep" but procedural keep. However since the individual nominations are presneted individually, there is no reason to link them or to kill them just because they came quickly. If only we had a similar rule on speed of creating new articles. What probably happened in the nominator spent a lot of time reviewing available sources and then did all the nominations at once. This regularly happens. The only way we can justify keeping this article is if someone presents some in-depth coverage of this person in a sources that is independent, reliable and secondary, and we need more than one source, with the 2 sources independent of each other, to really keep the article. It makes sense to go through the football categories starting with one place, since to search for sources on people from a given place, you need to search at times in specific databases that cover that place, so systemically going through one place and then another makes sense. It allows you to build up your knowledge of where to search and not have a steep learning curve for each nomination. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 16:15, 26 July 2022 (UTC)

This is an unreferenced fork of Luhansk People's Republic#Administrative divisions, which cites only unreliable sources; unencyclopedic; it’s like WP:SYNTH but not from reliable sources, giving the appearance of legitimacy to a fake country; borderline WP:HOAX. This information is not found in WP:reliable sources
This is a detailed expansion of a decree by the “authorities” in a Russian puppet state in Ukraine about territories they only partially control, which can be summed up in a single line in the main article: “the DNR authorities issued a decree rejecting Ukraine's 2020 reform of administrative divisions in Luhansk Oblast and only recognize the older division into raions: see Administrative divisions of Luhansk Oblast#Administrative divisions until 2020.”

The state statistical serviceA decree of the head of LNR is a reliable source for the administrative division of LNR - which currently controls the entirety of Luhansk oblast. The official Ukrainian administrative division is different and it should be, and is, described in another article. The fact that LNR isn't recognised is irrelevant, other unrecognised states have articles about their administrative divisions, e.g., Administrative divisions of Somaliland.

Somaliland isn't a puppet state of some larger empire. It is a part of the ethnic-Somali realm that broke away due to a civil dispute with other Somalis in the rest of Somalia, essentially. There is no obvious foreign agent operating in Somaliland; their cause for independence is almost entirely domestic.

Previous AfD was closed as Keep, which was overturned in Deletion Review.
I find the idea of keeping this article nothing short of scandalous. Fails WP:GNG, clear case of WP:PROMOTION and WP:COI. It was written by Łukaszyk himself, and is about his own PhD thesis. It was already deleted for these reasons back in 2009, after which Łukaszyk restored the article.
In the previous AfD Łukaszyk bombarded the page with irrelevant references, which were merely citing his paper. To satisfy WP:GNG a citation is not enough, one needs significant coverage, that addresses the topic directly and in detail. I managed to find a single arXiv pre-print [10] that gives it significant coverage. As it is not published, it doesn't count as a reliable source for the purposes of WP:GNG. Still, I find it interesting to remark that this pre-print dismisses the "Lukaszyk-Karmowski metric", which is not a metric, as a mistaken version of the well-known expected absolute difference, which is in fact a metric.
I think it's also important to mention that in the previous AfD all legitimate participants !voted Delete. All Keep !votes came from WP:SPAs or users that Łukaszyk WP:CANVASSED from the Polish Wikipedia. Łukaszyk has since then been blocked for sockpuppetry. Tercer ( talk) 20:22, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Whoo boy. The title is, as far as I could tell,
citogenesis: the scattered mentions in the literature all came after the author named the Wikipedia page after himself (and his PhD advisor). Letting that stand wouldn't just violate guidelines or policies, but the ethos of building a trustworthy encyclopedia. None of the lengthy discussion of properties, examples, or "Physical interpretation" is justified by secondary sources. The Moyer–Landauer business is
synthesis. Combine the bad title with the unsupported content, and there's nothing to save.

- There's not a "main source of arguments." The article should stand or fall on its own merits, based on the objective criteria of notability. It shouldn't require any one person to make the case for it, and if only one person is capable of effectively making that case, that's a pretty good sign that the article isn't really notable.

- Delete Largely because of WP:PROMO and WP:COI. I'm not unbiased; I've had several unsatisfactory interactions with the originator, the general theme of which has been a disregard of Wikipedia rules and incivility.

- Delete: The news about this new coalition had been entered by myself into the pages of the member parties, but it seemed enough to me. The page is premature (like the pages about the other left-wing alliances born in recent days), a mention in the pages of the parties that are part of it seems to me sufficient at the moment. In my opinion, when the alliances are consolidated, there will be enough sources and they will present a list for the elections, it will be the right time to create the page. Creating a page on a newly formed alliance is too early, political agreements in Italy are too often aleatory. -- Scia Della Cometa ( talk) 16:47, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: Fails WP:GNG; WP:CRYSTAL applies. If this was an alliance between major parties, then it could potentially be kept even with limited sourcing. However, all 4 parties here are minor fringe parties, so we can't look past the dearth of sources. Curbon7 ( talk) 19:22, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - Out of four sources, three are primary and one is a local (city) newspaper. The article therefore lacks significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject, and makes it not notable. Also, the alliance was created less than a month ago, so the voice suffers recentism. As alternative, I would consider to make the article a draft and publish it only when more secondary sources will be available. P1221 ( talk) 09:19, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

this is nothing more than list cruft - we don't usually include massive bibliographies for authors who are of questionable notability much less those who's works have not received critical coverage - this is a list of basically everything she's ever touched even minor short stories on blogs which are self published among other things. I tried to clean it up in the main article and redirect it but it's not even clear waht works have received coverage, so i fail to see how this warrants a standalone list as this isn't a personal resume service nor should we be linking to everything she's ever touched.

- I would encourage you to try Google, where you'll quickly see there's plenty of coverage about him, his TV appearances (Beat Bobby Flay, probably others), his multiple notable restaurants, etc., not to mention he was named Chef of the Year by Eater Portland. I'm not suggesting this one title makes him notable, but it is inaccurate for you to say coverage is limited to his Top Chef appearance, IMO. I'll let others decide the fate of this article, but the redirect serves a purpose so deleting the page altogether is unnecessary. ---

- Why didn't you include any of this additional information in the article? So, he has two credited appearances on TV, so I acknowledge WP:ONEEVENT doesn't technically stand, but I don't see how a single appearance on Beat Bobby Flay really changes things. "Probably others" is obviously vague. His restaurants have received local praise from Portland/Oregon-based websites, but I don't see how they're notable beyond that. Same thing with the Eater Portland award. Local praise from a local website. Even Top Chef itself made light of it.

- Delete Subject fails ANYBIO and GNG. I don't know that BLP1E applies as being on a TV show might preclude being a low-profile person. The media coverage I found is all Portland-area LOCAL coverage and all of that is related to the show. The subject is a nobody. That the author of this sad article couldn't be arsed to dig up the sources and use them tells me that Another Believer shouldn't be writing articles, at all. Redirects are too costly.

Tagged for notability since 2014. A brief look at the edit history shows that someone claiming to be Albert Doda has, on multiple occasions, tried to get the article deleted. See also User talk:Temrk. The article is currently a stats stub and searches in Google Images, Google News and ProQuest yielded nothing useful at all. DDG had some Albanian news stories but none of them appear to be about this particular Albert Doda. The article should be deleted per WP:GNG, WP:SPORTBASIC and per WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE.

Can't find any significant coverage and, since WP:NFOOTBALL is deprecated (bear in mind he only played 49 mins in the second tier of Albania so it's one of the weakest passes possible), WP:GNG is required and so a Soccerway stats stub is no longer acceptable unless significant coverage can be located. I searched using multiple search engines but couldn't find anything better than a passing mention in a crime news story in My London. The age of "Uesti Cenaj" matches the details for this footballer so it's likely that they are the same person but the level of coverage is insufficient for GNG and he doesn't meet the criteria at WP:PERPETRATOR.

- I don't think WP:Partial title match is a reason to delete, because one of the reasons for the different spellings in English is different methods of transliteration. This issue comes up with many Anglicizations of Arabic words. This is evidenced by the fact that another disambiguation/definition page exists titled Jamaat which appears to be doing the same thing as this page and a little bit better in my opinion. So actually I think it would make more sense to merge it with that. Chagropango ( talk) 12:43, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. The
Jamaat example is unconvincing; those titles are partial title matches as well. Under the current guidelines, there is no need for disambiguation unless some of these entities are known as simply 'Jamiat'. A Wiktionary redirect or splitting into 'List of' articles (including 'Jamaat'?) would be viable alternatives.

- I agree with HenryCrun that more investigation in a case like this is required, so I will try to see what I can confirm:
- The Boston College Magazine source we have: [13].
- I cannot confirm through Google a connection between "Heather Matthews" and the Manchester Mirror. Might of course only be established in print.
- John Clayton was indeed a columnist on the New Hampshire Union Leader during this period. No online archives available.
- The Front Porch appears to be a daily interview show on local radio. I have no difficulty believing Walters interviewed Yuenger, but its use as a reliable source is very questionable.
- WNDS News Now appears to be a news TV program ( example). I've never seen something like this used as a source before, and I'm not sure how it would stand.
- All of these sources being local, I feel fairly comfortable !voting Delete for this article, as a subject that is only of local interest. Most of these publications/programs have very little established presence within their (international) cultural sphere. If someone came in and gave more context on these sources, I might change my mind. ~ Maplestrip/Mable ( chat) 13:20, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

The lede sentence incorrectly uses the past tense. This article has no encyclopedic content. It does not belong in article space.

- Keep Should we rollback all the way down back to this revision? Alexphangia Talk 07:16, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep in some form. I can see why this mess got nominated but this article wasn't always like this and there is scope to get it back on track. Alexphangia's suggestion is plausible. If we were to revert to that version, remove the red "flag of" links and strip out any duplicates then that would certainly be an improvement. We could then go through the current version and see which of the more recently added flags are demonstrably valid. That might not be easy as it is perfectly legitimate for people to upload self-created versions of flags and it is not obvious who is basing them on real flags with official status. I picked one of the Armenian ones as a test. (The fact that it had a lot of magenta in it made me wonder how genuine it was given that pure magenta is not a colour normally seen in genuine flags with a long history as it is a relatively new colour only made possible with modern pigments.) Is there any provenance to prove it genuine? Not that I can see? Is it fake? I doubt it. It is in multiple articles in multiple languages. You would think that somebody would have noticed. Is it official or unofficial? Your guess is as good as mine. I don't want to accuse anybody of deliberately uploading fake flags but we do need to take care that we don't conflate unofficial flags with official ones. -- DanielRigal ( talk) 13:25, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Vice-Chancellor (i.e. most senior academic) at two universities. Mccapra ( talk) 04:07, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep As far as WP:NACADEMIC, I'm not sure if Vice Chancellor would qualify as the highest position, because there is a chancellor above him, however as I understand it in the British system which India follows the Vice Chancellor is effectively the head of the university. I also found media mentions of Mittal here, here, and here. His paper "An analysis of linkage between economic value added and corporate social responsibility" (which can be found here) has over 300 citations, including in a number of what appear to be established and reputable journals. Chagropango ( talk) 08:35, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep - Above arguments are correct, vice-chancellor is actually the head of the university. The chancellor is merely the figurehead. Sort like a governor-general v prime minister situation in Australia, the GG is a figurehead, the PM is actually running the country. Australian National University for example has Julie Bishop, a former minister, as chancellor. However she is just the figurehead, the VC runs the university.

- Delete. Destructoid and Polygon are brief passing mentions, Bleeding Cool even less so; neither are even worth adding to the article. I did find a useful mention from the
Rome News-Tribune
from 2005. The
The Martlet piece is non-trivial. There was also an article in a journal article Sam and Fuzzy (viewable
on ProQuest), and it's also non-trivial. To sum up, a student newspaper, a journal article, and a newspaper article. Quoted from
WP:RSSM:
A topic which can be sourced exclusively to student media, with no evidence of wider coverage in mass market general interest media, is not likely to be viewed as notable.
I would say that Sam and Fuzzy is not a notable web cartoon based on my analysis of coverage. SWinxy ( talk) 03:47, 27 July 2022 (UTC)- This actually makes me change my !vote to a Keep. The brief mentions in popular online magazines show wider interest, while the newspaper articles go more in-depth. I completely missed the Martlet article at first. ~ Maplestrip/Mable ( chat) 12:31, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
- I had hopes for the academic piece, but it's just uses the story as an example in this short (if academic) essay. Not SIGCOV. The Martlet piece is, let's face it, a student media blog level type of notice. I am not impressed. The RNT I can't access properly and it looks like the epitome of local, niche media.
