The result was delete. Consensus is clear, but let me just add, for the benefit of the IP (if it really is the article subject), please know this is not an artistic judgement of the quality of your work, but an assessment of notability based on Wikipedia policy. It's also not permanent; in the event there's significant coverage in independent, reliable sources establishing notability in the future, the article can be remade.

I have found very few actual Reliable Sources that mention this individual. They are all biographies that can be added by the individual or social media pages. Based on the article he has only been involved in a handful of "notable" films, and for those he was minor players in the scheme of things, such as the assistant location manager.

Hello Viewmont Viking - this is John Schwert, thanks for your feedback!
I feel that my track-record of working in film, tv, and commercials for nearly 20 years, writing/directing/producing films, tv, and commercials - in addition to the locations work that I've done along the way that you mentioned, winning film festivals and awards along the way, is sufficient enough to have a Wikipedia listing, and I welcome you to explore my IMDB page, as well as a feature film that I just produced with Aaron Eckhart, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, and Connor Paolo, entitled Ambush that will be in theaters next month ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkVEoypYKxg). My web designer Sue was updating my Wikipedia page and I think we were both confused as to what links were/weren't allowed on the page, but now we understand things a bit better and we hope that you reconsider your position on my Wikipedia status.
Thanks again, all my best!

Further discussion

  • Delete per WP:NOTINHERITED, WP:SIGCOV, WP:CREATIVE, and WP:AUTO. Merely because someone is the director, producer, or actor in a film, it does not make them notable. Producers and behind-the-scenes staff are especially common and, to be blunt, run of the mill. Part of that is, that not all films are notable, and none of this person's films are notable because of him. Being interviewed one or twice about a film does not make the creator of the film notable; there must be substantial coverage in multiple reliable sources. Even if you are new to editing Wikipedia, everyone who was born in the 20th century has at least used or read Wikipedia and after 22 years, knows or should know the gist of what Wikipedia constitutes and that it is a charity. Ignorance of the long-standing reality of one of the most popular websites in the world does not excuse disobeying its rules or its longstanding mores and consensus about how we include content. Also, even if one is a creative person, you are not automatically included on Wikipedia. As a private charity, we have the right to exclude anyone from our services; we are not a free web host. As a private entity, we are not subject to the First Amendment. Nobody would expect to barge into a meeting of the ASPCA and demand that it surrender a puppy to them. Film producers and associated staff are dime a dozen. You have to do more than the average director, professor or scholar. Finally, I am strongly opposed to autobiographies on Wikipedia. In 2007, that could have been excused, but in 2022, it's untenable to try to sneak in a social media page masquerading as an encyclopedia article. To be plain, it's theft of our services. We have deleted older articles merely because they were paid for or autobiographies. There is no statute of limitation of action for deleting an article. Bearian ( talk) 19:59, 17 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Thanks for the feedback - I appreciate your words. I'm hoping that you deem my Wiki listing from 2007 as notable enough to allow me to keep it and even update it - which is what we were trying to do the past couple weeks. I've pasted above mainstream, notable articles from major publications (Variety, Biz Journals, Film Threat) along with a link to the Dateline NBC special that focused exclusively on my film Among Brothers that I wrote, directed, and produced, in conjunction with In/Significant Others, another film that I wrote, directed, and produced, both of which have won multiple film festivals (that have Wiki listings) and awards, and I have Ambush, a film that I produced for Paramount, coming out February 24, 2023 - again, here is the link to that trailer ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkVEoypYKxg). I've realized and now clearly understand how/why linking to social media and/or other sites isn't appropriate for Wikipedia and apologies for the ignorance on my part.
    Thanks again for the words and feedback.

I ran into this one when participating in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Penny-Farthing Press, as it was suggested that article could be redirected here. However, actually looking into this article, I don't believe this comic is notable itself. The only reviews included are all from the same defunct website, which per the WP:GNG, would only count as a single source for establishing notability. And when I performed various searches, I found pretty much no coverage in reliable sources regarding the series. The most I found were very brief mentions in lists of things that Len Wein had worked on. Without significant coverage in reliable sources, it fails the WP:GNG.

This is a list of local politicians ranked by seniority (tellingly, at the time of writing, it has not been updated since the most recent elections in May 2022). The politicians in the list largely fail WP:NPOL, and while established sources (i.e., the council website) do attest to their membership of Cardiff Council, thus meeting WP:LISTPEOPLE, this list of names is also provided by 2022 Cardiff Council election#Ward results, and I fail to see any reason why local politicians should have a separate listing by 'seniority' as well as by alphabetical order of the wards in which they were elected. In summary, I propose that this list is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. (Even if it is, the burden of updating it after changes in council membership is not justified for any usefulness, as evidenced also by there having been no update since the last election eight months ago.) _ MB190417_ ( talk) 17:22, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Actress with bit parts in various things. Only appears in credits lists, which is all the sourcing that's used in the article. No lasting in-depth coverage. Wes sideman ( talk) 15:07, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • comment While it's true she's mentioned in a few books, that's all it is: mere mentions. It's not "significant coverage in reliable sources", as mandated by WP:GNG. Even the source I just added for her Flumps narration is just a quick mention of her name. While you've also done some work adding references, which is good, each of those references is just a mention of her name in a cast. There is no in-depth coverage of her; in fact, there's no coverage of her in independent reliable sources at all beyond lists of cast members. Wes sideman ( talk) 17:42, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply

    She played every voice role in the entire television production of The Flumps. I think it is fair for me to characterise that as satisfying played a major role in co-creating. She has played multiple lead roles, including in Godspell, to call these "bit parts" is inaccurate.
    This actor has a 65 year stellar career that has spanned theatre, film, television and music and the productions she has played major roles in have won critical acclaim.
    I've carefully read your rebuttal of my assessment, and I stand by my claims. I've further improved the article since my comments, and I am optimistic that a fresh review of the article might make it easier for you to agree. CT55555( talk) 21:44, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - Soper appears to be more than 'an actress with bit parts in various things', and recordings of her work can be verified on e.g. Worldcat. She appears to have a well-established theater career, e.g. this 2012 Broadway World announcement includes a description of past credits, as does this 2013 Broadway World announcement; her role in Funny Girl also does not appear to be a 'bit part', according to these review roundups 1, 2 by Broadway World.

I don't really understand how you could argue that they aren't notable, given the extensive coverage of the family over the years in different mainstream national newspapers, including several articles dedicated to summarizing information on the family. I also don't really understand how this is a smear page: no opinion on any of the cases is given, only a summation of what has been published elsewhere.

  • I don't see how you could arrive at that conclusion. The current sources are:
    • a non-independent history given by Shine
    • Brief mention in The Guardian, where the entirety of text related to Shine is
      4.40 Today's pick-up point is Bethnal Green tube; Chris is otherwise engaged, so his colleague Trevor joins us. Our first destination is Shine FM, a 20-minute drive away. Trevor reveals the address. "You've heard about this street, yeah? It's notorious." 4.50 We tune into Shine FM, where Jazzy B's show is already under way. He shouts out to Pluto, then "to the Kings Cross ladies!" 5.00 After a short wait outside a Caribbean food store, a man in a white Le Coq Sportif jacket collects us, taking us through a black door, up five flights of stairs, past a box of unopened bills and a discarded rubber glove, into an empty flat. Shine FM - some decks, a MiniDisc player, speakers and an amp with its £15 Cash Converters sticker still displayed - is based in the kitchen. A spare mic rests on the draining board.
    • brief mention in a broadcast licensing announcement
    • Some coverage in passing in The Music Industry Raw
    Across these sources, The Music Industry Raw has the beginnings of what could contribute to meeting GNG, and if supplemented by other sources providing equal-or-better coverage would establish notability, but the rest of the coverage does not pick up the slack. signed, Rosguill talk 20:24, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect - That it exists is not sufficient. Unless there's a more specific notability guideline (couldn't find one after a bit of digging), then WP:GNG and WP:NORG applies, and this article's subject meets neither of those. The station's website, trivial coverage, more trivial coverage, and a database listing are not sufficient as none of those contribute to the notability of the subject. I did find one story about a Shine FM threatening to "go pirate" but I think it's a different station because this one in the newspaper was a licensed station in Birmingham, not a pirate station in East London/Essex. The timeline doesn't match up; Birmingham's Shine FM had a license in 1998, when the East London/Essex Shine FM started as a pirate station in 1997. However, even if that source were about this article's subject, it alone wouldn't be enough. Pirate radio in the United Kingdom is a reasonable redirect target. - Aoidh ( talk) 08:38, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply

This article has existed on WP since 2008 and been tagged since 2018 for not citing sources. Yet it continues to be edited regularly with no effort to provide sourcing for the facts presented. A search for sources provided no credible third-party citations to support the facts being presented here. If we are developing an encylopedia, we must present facts and none of the remarkable detail presented here is supported by factual documentation. Even a dusty Nissan repair manual would do better than nothing.

@ Abyan Malek see WP:COI and WP:SOCKPUPPET for more information. The basic explanation is that "COI" stands for "conflict of interest", which could be something like a personal/professional connection with a subject which would make it inappropriate for you to be editing their page; and a sockpuppet is an undeclared second account by a user made to make it look like multiple people are taking the same side in a disagreement when in reality it's just one person disguising themself with multiple names.

The scope of the list is too huge for one Wikipedia list. There's a reason we have Lists of American writers, not "List of American writers". China has a much longer literary history than the United States, so making a comprehensive list of Chinese writers is even more hopeless than making a comprehensive list of American writers. This page should be redirected to Lists of Chinese writers and we should make some sub-lists, (e.g. List of Chinese playwrights, List of writers from Yunnan, List of Uyghur writers, but not List of Chinese poets, because that would include basically every writer in ancient China.

This artist fails WP:ARTIST using the fourth criterion, and likely WP:GNG too. I cannot find any news on him from Google News besides two passing mentions. On regular search I can only find biographies about him, a few websites with pictures of some of his art, and sites selling his works. The one reference on the page is also a website selling his art. The only unique site I found about him is one person who had written part of their dissertation on Kenneth. Although the page itself can't be used as a reference because it is a blog, the references from the page could possibly contain more than a passing mention, which could pass GPG.

I do not know. It only says he started the show. WP:ENTERTAINER seems to be subjective. It says "Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment". What does it mean "prolific" or "unique"? Every good/gifted singer or composer is unique. I am simply looking at the page and think that (a) the content is mostly sourced, and (b) based on the description on page, this is someone who possibly/probably passes WP:GNG. I am not saying he definitely passes GNG, meaning that the argument for "keeping" is weak, and deletion would not be unreasonable (hence I changed the vote). My very best wishes ( talk) 17:28, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Weak Keep : I'm mostly on the fence. WP:GNG seems questionable but slightly positive (against deletion).The sources listed on the page seem to include adequate coverage of secondary sources, but whether that is significant or whether those sources are reliable for this discussion is questionable. WP:ENTERTAINER seems questionable but slightly negative (in favor of deletion). He has certainly not satisfied "significant roles in multiple notable" events. Nor have his contributions been extraordinarily unique, prolific, or innovative. I'm marking this as weak keep only because I think the arguments for deletion are not quite sufficient to justify deletion, though they are very very close. Radzy0 ( talk) 19:09, 1 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Hello Viewmont Viking - this is John Schwert, thanks for your feedback!
I feel that my track-record of working in film, tv, and commercials for nearly 20 years, writing/directing/producing films, tv, and commercials - in addition to the locations work that I've done along the way that you mentioned, winning film festivals and awards along the way, is sufficient enough to have a Wikipedia listing, and I welcome you to explore my IMDB page, as well as a feature film that I just produced with Aaron Eckhart, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, and Connor Paolo, entitled Ambush that will be in theaters next month ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkVEoypYKxg). My web designer Sue was updating my Wikipedia page and I think we were both confused as to what links were/weren't allowed on the page, but now we understand things a bit better and we hope that you reconsider your position on my Wikipedia status.
Thanks again, all my best!

Further discussion

  • Delete per WP:NOTINHERITED, WP:SIGCOV, WP:CREATIVE, and WP:AUTO. Merely because someone is the director, producer, or actor in a film, it does not make them notable. Producers and behind-the-scenes staff are especially common and, to be blunt, run of the mill. Part of that is, that not all films are notable, and none of this person's films are notable because of him. Being interviewed one or twice about a film does not make the creator of the film notable; there must be substantial coverage in multiple reliable sources. Even if you are new to editing Wikipedia, everyone who was born in the 20th century has at least used or read Wikipedia and after 22 years, knows or should know the gist of what Wikipedia constitutes and that it is a charity. Ignorance of the long-standing reality of one of the most popular websites in the world does not excuse disobeying its rules or its longstanding mores and consensus about how we include content. Also, even if one is a creative person, you are not automatically included on Wikipedia. As a private charity, we have the right to exclude anyone from our services; we are not a free web host. As a private entity, we are not subject to the First Amendment. Nobody would expect to barge into a meeting of the ASPCA and demand that it surrender a puppy to them. Film producers and associated staff are dime a dozen. You have to do more than the average director, professor or scholar. Finally, I am strongly opposed to autobiographies on Wikipedia. In 2007, that could have been excused, but in 2022, it's untenable to try to sneak in a social media page masquerading as an encyclopedia article. To be plain, it's theft of our services. We have deleted older articles merely because they were paid for or autobiographies. There is no statute of limitation of action for deleting an article. Bearian ( talk) 19:59, 17 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Thanks for the feedback - I appreciate your words. I'm hoping that you deem my Wiki listing from 2007 as notable enough to allow me to keep it and even update it - which is what we were trying to do the past couple weeks. I've pasted above mainstream, notable articles from major publications (Variety, Biz Journals, Film Threat) along with a link to the Dateline NBC special that focused exclusively on my film Among Brothers that I wrote, directed, and produced, in conjunction with In/Significant Others, another film that I wrote, directed, and produced, both of which have won multiple film festivals (that have Wiki listings) and awards, and I have Ambush, a film that I produced for Paramount, coming out February 24, 2023 - again, here is the link to that trailer ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkVEoypYKxg). I've realized and now clearly understand how/why linking to social media and/or other sites isn't appropriate for Wikipedia and apologies for the ignorance on my part.

I ran into this one when participating in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Penny-Farthing Press, as it was suggested that article could be redirected here. However, actually looking into this article, I don't believe this comic is notable itself. The only reviews included are all from the same defunct website, which per the WP:GNG, would only count as a single source for establishing notability. And when I performed various searches, I found pretty much no coverage in reliable sources regarding the series.

List of members of Cardiff Council by seniority

List of members of Cardiff Council by seniority (  | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources:  Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is a list of local politicians ranked by seniority (tellingly, at the time of writing, it has not been updated since the most recent elections in May 2022). The politicians in the list largely fail WP:NPOL, and while established sources (i.e., the council website) do attest to their membership of Cardiff Council, thus meeting WP:LISTPEOPLE, this list of names is also provided by 2022 Cardiff Council election#Ward results, and I fail to see any reason why local politicians should have a separate listing by 'seniority' as well as by alphabetical order of the wards in which they were elected. In summary, I propose that this list is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. (Even if it is, the burden of updating it after changes in council membership is not justified for any usefulness, as evidenced also by there having been no update since the last election eight months ago.) _ MB190417_ ( talk) 17:22, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply

The original author has been blocked, I believe, so the chances of this being kept up to date are slim. I did consider this list to be a bit 'niche' when I cam across it, I'm not aware of any other independent source that takes an interest in the seniority of Cardiff county councillors.

    Given that this list is neither puerile or poorly-sourced, Wikipedia doesn't work on precedent, and the deletion of one page does not prevent the creation of a different one (even with the same title, absent active action) whether this list is kept or deleted will have no impact on whether something that is both of those things would be created and would have no impact on whether it would be deleted if it was created.

Actress with bit parts in various things. Only appears in credits lists, which is all the sourcing that's used in the article. No lasting in-depth coverage. Wes sideman ( talk) 15:07, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • comment While it's true she's mentioned in a few books, that's all it is: mere mentions. It's not "significant coverage in reliable sources", as mandated by WP:GNG. Even the source I just added for her Flumps narration is just a quick mention of her name. While you've also done some work adding references, which is good, each of those references is just a mention of her name in a cast. There is no in-depth coverage of her; in fact, there's no coverage of her in independent reliable sources at all beyond lists of cast members. Wes sideman ( talk) 17:42, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • comment on above claim of WP:CREATIVE criterion 3: she does not pass that criterion. She was not the creator or co-creator of The Flumps. She was hired as a narrator. Wes sideman ( talk) 17:44, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    She played every voice role in the entire television production of The Flumps. I think it is fair for me to characterise that as satisfying played a major role in co-creating. She has played multiple lead roles, including in Godspell, to call these "bit parts" is inaccurate.
    This actor has a 65 year stellar career that has spanned theatre, film, television and music and the productions she has played major roles in have won critical acclaim.
    I've carefully read your rebuttal of my assessment, and I stand by my claims. I've further improved the article since my comments, and I am optimistic that a fresh review of the article might make it easier for you to agree. CT55555( talk) 21:44, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - Soper appears to be more than 'an actress with bit parts in various things', and recordings of her work can be verified on e.g. Worldcat. She appears to have a well-established theater career, e.g. this 2012 Broadway World announcement includes a description of past credits, as does this 2013 Broadway World announcement; her role in Funny Girl also does not appear to be a 'bit part', according to these review roundups 1, 2 by Broadway World.

  • Keep per WP:BASIC and WP:NACTOR#1; her career appears fairly prolific and recognized by multiple independent and reliable sources (e.g. WhatsOnStage 1, and a review of Crazy For You).

Re: the blatant puffery, everything positive I included in the original was cited, though I didn't understand that some of the citations were to things self-published by the Burkes at the time. I don't really understand how you could argue that they aren't notable, given the extensive coverage of the family over the years in different mainstream national newspapers, including several articles dedicated to summarizing information on the family. I also don't really understand how this is a smear page: no opinion on any of the cases is given, only a summation of what has been published elsewhere. What about Elijah's successful campaign to ensure both he and other homeschooled students could avail of the predicted grades scheme could be considered a smear?

Slatersteven ( talk) 15:22, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Given that in over half of the sections in the article, more than one family member is involved, I would say no, there is no synthesis.

  • I don't see how you could arrive at that conclusion. The current sources are:
    • a non-independent history given by Shine
    • Brief mention in The Guardian, where the entirety of text related to Shine is
      4.40 Today's pick-up point is Bethnal Green tube; Chris is otherwise engaged, so his colleague Trevor joins us. Our first destination is Shine FM, a 20-minute drive away. Trevor reveals the address. "You've heard about this street, yeah? It's notorious." 4.50 We tune into Shine FM, where Jazzy B's show is already under way. He shouts out to Pluto, then "to the Kings Cross ladies!" 5.00 After a short wait outside a Caribbean food store, a man in a white Le Coq Sportif jacket collects us, taking us through a black door, up five flights of stairs, past a box of unopened bills and a discarded rubber glove, into an empty flat. Shine FM - some decks, a MiniDisc player, speakers and an amp with its £15 Cash Converters sticker still displayed - is based in the kitchen. A spare mic rests on the draining board.
    • brief mention in a broadcast licensing announcement
    • Some coverage in passing in The Music Industry Raw
    Across these sources, The Music Industry Raw has the beginnings of what could contribute to meeting GNG, and if supplemented by other sources providing equal-or-better coverage would establish notability, but the rest of the coverage does not pick up the slack. signed, Rosguill talk 20:24, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect - That it exists is not sufficient. Unless there's a more specific notability guideline (couldn't find one after a bit of digging), then WP:GNG and WP:NORG applies, and this article's subject meets neither of those. The station's website, trivial coverage, more trivial coverage, and a database listing are not sufficient as none of those contribute to the notability of the subject. I did find one story about a Shine FM threatening to "go pirate" but I think it's a different station because this one in the newspaper was a licensed station in Birmingham, not a pirate station in East London/Essex. The timeline doesn't match up; Birmingham's Shine FM had a license in 1998, when the East London/Essex Shine FM started as a pirate station in 1997. However, even if that source were about this article's subject, it alone wouldn't be enough. Pirate radio in the United Kingdom is a reasonable redirect target. - Aoidh ( talk) 08:38, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply

This article has existed on WP since 2008 and been tagged since 2018 for not citing sources. Yet it continues to be edited regularly with no effort to provide sourcing for the facts presented. A search for sources provided no credible third-party citations to support the facts being presented here. If we are developing an encylopedia, we must present facts and none of the remarkable detail presented here is supported by factual documentation. Even a dusty Nissan repair manual would do better than nothing. I respectfully suggest that this article be deleted, draftified OR combined with the separate "List of Nissan Engines" article (which, not surprisingly is also absent of any referencing).

Non notable singer & promotional article. I am unable to see/find any significant covarage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.

@ Abyan Malek see WP:COI and WP:SOCKPUPPET for more information. The basic explanation is that "COI" stands for "conflict of interest", which could be something like a personal/professional connection with a subject which would make it inappropriate for you to be editing their page; and a sockpuppet is an undeclared second account by a user made to make it look like multiple people are taking the same side in a disagreement when in reality it's just one person disguising themself with multiple names. Allegations like these tend to get thrown around a lot by Wikipedia editors without any actual evidence so you probably don't have anything to worry about there.

The scope of the list is too huge for one Wikipedia list. There's a reason we have Lists of American writers, not "List of American writers". China has a much longer literary history than the United States, so making a comprehensive list of Chinese writers is even more hopeless than making a comprehensive list of American writers. This page should be redirected to Lists of Chinese writers and we should make some sub-lists, (e.g. List of Chinese playwrights, List of writers from Yunnan, List of Uyghur writers, but not List of Chinese poets, because that would include basically every writer in ancient China.

This artist fails WP:ARTIST using the fourth criterion, and likely WP:GNG too. I cannot find any news on him from Google News besides two passing mentions. On regular search I can only find biographies about him, a few websites with pictures of some of his art, and sites selling his works. The one reference on the page is also a website selling his art. The only unique site I found about him is one person who had written part of their dissertation on Kenneth. Although the page itself can't be used as a reference because it is a blog, the references from the page could possibly contain more than a passing mention, which could pass GPG.

I do not know. It only says he started the show. WP:ENTERTAINER seems to be subjective. It says "Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment". What does it mean "prolific" or "unique"? Every good/gifted singer or composer is unique. I am simply looking at the page and think that (a) the content is mostly sourced, and (b) based on the description on page, this is someone who possibly/probably passes WP:GNG.

  • Weak Keep : I'm mostly on the fence. WP:GNG seems questionable but slightly positive (against deletion).The sources listed on the page seem to include adequate coverage of secondary sources, but whether that is significant or whether those sources are reliable for this discussion is questionable. WP:ENTERTAINER seems questionable but slightly negative (in favor of deletion). He has certainly not satisfied "significant roles in multiple notable" events. Nor have his contributions been extraordinarily unique, prolific, or innovative. I'm marking this as weak keep only because I think the arguments for deletion are not quite sufficient to justify deletion, though they are very very close.

Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG. ~ Nanosci ( talk) 00:37, 4 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. I PRODed this back in 2013 and nothing seems to have changed. At the time, it was suggested that this could be merged somewhere, but that hasn't happened either and, in fact, I don't see where this could be merged. -- Randykitty ( talk) 10:19, 4 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    I think this article could be merged with the editor-in-chief BM Jain. Sima Sam ( talk) 13:01, 6 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting. As stated, previously PROD'd so Soft Deletion is not an option. It might be worth some time to consider possible Merge targets.

Fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:BIO. Potentially notable but zero coverage. Prod1 and 2 tags which were accurare, have been removed by caustic WP:SPA. scope_creep Talk 00:29, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete, per the PROD and PROD2 tags, there is zero-SIGCOV on this person in any RS, despite being a WP BLP for over 20 years. The only RS is on the Times rich-list (net worth is c £100m), and their donations to Cambridge (who named a lizard after him in return). If being rich is WP:N, the he would be a pass, but he is almost a ghost in terms of GNG. 78.18.228.191 ( talk) 00:57, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete or Redirect to Adobe FrameMaker#History. I added the prod2. Rationale was: Likely most notable as being the creator of FrameMaker, but WP:NOTINHERITED and what RS coverage I found (e.g. [36]) is focused on the software rather than its creator. Jfire ( talk) 02:05, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: Doesn't appear relevant or notable. Not enough sources either and they are non-reliable from my POV. StarryNightSky11  03:54, 11 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to Adobe FrameMaker#History. The creation of FrameMaker is notable, but there is not much coverage of the subject here, and it anyway looks like a WP:BLP1E. Russ Woodroofe ( talk) 10:58, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete and redirect. Creating FrameMaker sounds like the sort of thing that might reasonably lead to notability, but it needs GNG-level in-depth coverage of the subject (separated enough from the coverage of FrameMaker to show independent notability). It's the sort of thing that might have been published in a trade magazine of the time, but I couldn't find anything like that, and without the sources, we have no independent notability. Redirects are cheap, though. — David Eppstein ( talk) 18:39, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Comment Examination of the references:
  • Ref 1 [37] Trademark. Non-rs.
  • Ref 2 [38] Use of the device to control home. Fails WP:NOT. Wikipedia is not a manual, although it does verifiy the products were popular in the hobbyist, DIY and craft folk.
  • Ref 3 404. Unable to locate.
  • Ref 4 [39] News about it closing down. Valid source.
  • Ref 5 [40] New about it being up. Valid source.
  • Ref 6 [41] Blog ref. Non-RS.
  • Ref 7 Patents. Non-RS.
  • Ref 8 [www.ocbj.com/news/2015/jan/06/insteon-partners-nest/] Fails WP:CORPDEPTH as press-release.
  • Ref 9 [42] Seems to be manual, describing the product. Product review.
  • Ref 10 [www.insteon.net/aboutInsteon.html] Primary. Non-RS.
  • Ref 11 [43] Passing mention.
  • Ref 12 [44] Press-release.
  • Ref 13 [45] Product review.
  • Ref 14 Product review.

Of the 14 refs, 2 product reviews, 2 press-releases, 4 Non-rs, 1 manual, 1 passing mention, 1 404, 1 WP:NOT fail and 2 secondary refs. No indication of being notable due to lack of coverage. scope_creep Talk 11:22, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. I'd pose that the strongest claim to notability here is that it was down for two months, leaving its few customers stranded, but this ends up only in Ars Technica and was not carried in any newspapers per ProQuest, indicating that few were concerned. Many, many product reviews exist, but nothing that would meet WP:CORPDEPTH. FalconK ( talk) 09:58, 15 January 2023 (UTC) reply
