As per wikipedia is not a dictionary. This condition is covered by Dysdiadochokinesia and Adiadochokinesia is a specific instance of this. In fact in this textbook here the chapter relating to the condition is titled "Adiadochokinesia or Dysdiadochokinesia". This topic is at best a single line in the Dysdiadochokinesia article I would argue. This is outside my expertise so please correct me if I have something wrong.

  • Redirect to dysdiadochokinesia. Compare e.g. aphasia and dysphasia, where the latter redirects to the former. TompaDompa ( talk) 02:16, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect per aphasia and dysphasia, as suggested by TompaDompa, wont be a problem. Adiadochokinesia is the extreme extend of dysdiadochokinesia. But I am wondering whether all human symptoms deserve an article. All human symptoms are surely encyclopedic, they have been subject to extensive examination. Has this been discussed already somewhere in WP? Cinadon 36 08:23, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    As for the latter part of your comment, it comes down to how is the information best presented. Would it be better to have a single article that discusses all of them, especially if there isn't that much to say about them individually, or is there enough content to warrant a separate article?

Non-notable. The alleged "world records" were registered not by Guinness but by obscure title mill organizations that themselves did not warrant Wikipedia articles. Most of the sources listed are WordPress blogs, not proper news websites. The so-called "Paradox Sonic Space Research Association", of which the article subject is the "CEO", consists of an empty website, and it seems that they cannot even make up their minds whether it's called "Paradox Sonic Space Research Association" or "Paradox Sonic Space Research Agency". Either way, WP:COMPANY are clearly not met. Building a cubesat is not particularly impressive, one can buy a cubesat kit for several thousand dollars. He received several awards, yes, but WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NOTNP.

There is obviously a concerted effort to promote the kid, that the user who created the article has no other contributions and created his account a day ago further proves it. Nothing wrong with that, but I don't believe the notability criteria have been met as of yet. Escargoten ( talk) 23:21, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Delete. Building a cubesat is neat, but any person can do one now (that was the point of the program). Records "won" don't seem notable. Seems like the kid is on a path to a bright future, but not notable, yet, for wiki purposes. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:21, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
ANI news is a press-release service, India Science appears to be user-generated... The rest of the sources (as explained above) don't help the situation. The world's youngest webmaster? He runs a website; that is not notable in 2023, perhaps in 1993 it would have been. Some of the claims seem outlandish. I'm amazed this was passed at AfC. Oaktree b ( talk) 03:24, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
Keep India Science appears to be a governmental source and as such could be considered reliable. The record "won" are registered by World Record Certification Limited (and not the Guinness and the wiki article doesn't emphasize on records being a "Guinness Title". The subject is definitely notable, article may need some cleanup. I'm not amazed over this being passed at AfC. Claims about the CubeSat are true and recorded in various news websites.

  • Delete - The article's subject fails WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO and WP:CREATIVE; it's supported by press releases, churnalism, and unreliable sources. The article has a lot of WP:EXTRAORDINARY claims but questionable sources to support those claims. The entry for the world record for "youngest male webmaster" says he was seven, but he would have been about fourteen when the record was apparently recorded. How did they verify it seven years after it supposedly happened, took them at their word? Invented a time machine to go back and make sure nobody helped him make the website? Even if that world record site was 100% reliable and didn't have such an emphasis on selling "world record" status as a product (We work with brands and enterprises worldwide to deliver the ultimate record-breaking marketing campaigns. That doesn't add up. Notability hasn't been established. - Aoidh ( talk) 08:28, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
Keep I don't find any sources as WordPress blogposts (correct me if I'm wrong). The company Paradox Sonic Space Research Association has a registered name. The website appears to be on maintenance, can't consider it as an empty website. The factor of notability does not comes up with how impressive building a CubeSat is. Your idea of a one buying a CubeSat kit appears more of a conspiracy (cite a proof here).

no, wordpress blogs are user generated and not a reliable source. "WordPress.com is a blog hosting service that runs on the WordPress software. As a self-published source, it is considered generally unreliable and should be avoided unless the author is a subject-matter expert or the blog is used for uncontroversial self-descriptions. WordPress.com should never be used for claims related to living persons; this includes interviews, as even those cannot be authenticated. " [1]. And [2], if he built it in school, anyone can, so it's not notable. If his "company" built it, it isn't sourced from a neutral third-party source, so we can't use the citation given (and it's not notable anyway).
Anyone can register a website, give me five minutes and I'll hop over to wix and create my own. His is blank, so can't be used to support notability, as it has NO CONTENT. Oaktree b ( talk) 16:06, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Mr. Singh, I understand that you don't like that the article that you wrote about yourself is being considered for deletion, but I hope you realize that sockpuppeting is against Wikipedia rules and that you're not authorized to singlehandedly shut down discussions.

    Making a 30 under 30 list isn't proof of notability. AngusW🐶🐶F ( bark • sniff) 15:48, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply

    The "title mill award" was a reference to the claims of being the "World's Youngest Theoretical Author" and "World's Youngest Webmaster", which are indeed only sourced by title mill websites. Rashtriya Bal Puraskar is not a title mill, but in itself not a proof of notability either. Escargoten ( talk) 16:57, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply

    From your own link: "world’s youngest webmaster (male)’ certification from World Record Certification Limited, London".
    "World Record Certification" is a title mill for those who don't meet Guinness requirements. A newspaper reporting on a title mill award does not establish notability. Escargoten ( talk) 22:49, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    When did the Wiki article said that "Onkar received the record from Guinness?" Rohit9235 ( talk) 15:44, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Please check WP:N. A Guinness record is notable, a title mill certificate that his parents probably just bought for him is not. Escargoten ( talk) 15:54, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Would removing those record titles from achievement page help? Let that Child award and satellite thing remain. Those are notable and not so-called "title mills". Rohit9235 ( talk) 15:59, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Like @ AngusWOOF said, the child award does not confer individual notability. Nor does building a cubesat. Escargoten ( talk) 10:43, 15 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    It helps remove unreliable sources, so helps further prove non-notability. Oaktree b ( talk) 15:47, 17 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete per Oaktree's reasoning. Appears to be more churnalism. As mentioned before, being on a top 100 or a 30 under 30 list isn't notable. Rashtriya is given out to 20-30 kids a year, and it is not clear if this is equivalent to a Presidential Scholars Program (given to about 100-120 students a year), which doesn't confer individual notability. Needs references to the actual Guinness World Records site where they list kids who broke notable records. AngusW🐶🐶F ( bark • sniff) 16:04, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar is equivalent to Presidential Scholars Program but is more selective in nature. Wednesdaykaur ( talk) 16:38, 13 January 2023 (UTC) — Wednesdaykaur ( talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. reply
    I don't know about that. Presidential Scholars is quite selective (only 2 per state). Still at the equivalent of a 30 under 30 selection. The article really needs more GNG sources. AngusW🐶🐶F ( bark • sniff) 13:33, 15 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    And they get a heck of a lot more coverage than this person does. I almost think this is a hoax, the more we discuss it, the worse the quality of the sources gets. I would hazard a guess that this was created to boost whatever business the person is trying to promote.
    "Kid builds satellite at school, creates website for and about himself and claims to have won non-notable awards (that were either paid for, or are given out to many children each year)" seems to be the subject being discussed. I don't think much of any of this can be used for GNG, CREATIVE, BIO or COMPANY. That's about where this sits now. Oaktree b ( talk) 15:54, 17 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    The internet confirms India has launched hundreds of cubesats since around 2017, so building one isn't that notable anymore. So I'm not sure what's left to use for notability. Smart kid in school with website? Oaktree b ( talk) 16:03, 17 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Please also note per WP:RSP for Guinness World Records (which is marked as yellow): "There is consensus that world records verified by Guinness World Records should not be used to establish notability.

  • Redirect to Playground as an ATD - User:Liz, the merge discussion has had minimal activity in the last three months, with 3 opposes and 1 support. Reading the two articles, I agree with the opposition to the merge: there's nothing of value currently in this article for playground. That said, commercial playgrounds clearly meets GNG; I found several reasonable academic sources. (ex: [1]) Thus, because it seems like a reasonable search term (as it is an industry term that has been used over the years by academics and the press), I favor keeping the term as a redirect. Any reliable sources related to commercial playgrounds can be productively added to Playground#Types, with no prejudice against splitting the article if someone wants to write a more elaborate history on commercial playgrounds/playspaces in the future.

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Events, Wrestling, and Japan. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 22:25, 5 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment — The first source refers to the tour as commemorating NJPW's 50th anniversary, so the claimed rationale of this being any old tour is bogus. For someone who doesn't follow the current NJPW product, I've read quite a bit about that anniversary. I also know that pro wrestling receives substantial legitimate media coverage in Japan. There's a certain clique of admins who constantly complain about the sources pushed by WP:PW. That stance doesn't have a whole lot of teeth when you have a million excuses for not bothering to exploit the type of sources you claim should be used on this project, or assisting others in that regard. I've already said too much about how useless WP:RSN is. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 03:03, 6 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    • I'm not saying this is an old tour. I said a lot of promotions held tours, like Ring of Honor or WWE. I'm pointing these events are barely covered by sources. Making a research, it's just WP:ROUTINE " [13]" -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 08:12, 10 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Badly sourced BLP on a semi-pro footballer/futsal player with nothing to contribute to WP:GNG or WP:SPORTBASIC. A Hungarian source search yielded some sources which I will analyse. ZAOL mentions him once in the main text, confirming that he is the top scorer of the Western Division of the second tier of Hungarian futsal. Not much of a claim to notability there. Kanizsa Újság is a local Nagykanizsa-based paper which mentions Bogyó a few times in the match report. Zala County's Zala Sport also has some match report coverage of amateur futsal that mentions him a few times. I can't find anything better than these match reports so there is no reasonable opportunity to build a biography for Bogyó. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 20:50, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

This film was tagged for notability by another editor. I removed the tag because it has 8 Critic Reviews at Rotten Tomatoes, including Variety and The Guardian.

The other editor said 8 reviews from RT is irrelevant and stated, "No, in fact - the consensus at MOS:FILM has been is that 8 reviews is NOT enough for films - remove aggregator again." This is NOT true, as MOS:FILMCRITICS (which is the policy for using RT as a source) does not list a minimum number of critic reviews at RT for inclusion in an article.

I feel this article should be KEPT and should have the notability tag removed, but when I remove it another editor adds it back. Lets decide once and for all, is this film notable enough to be kept and have the notability tag removed, or should it be deleted? Thank you. DonaldD23 talk to me 18:16, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Per WP:BASIC. I could only find 3 reliable secondary sources covering her at all and only one of them covers her extensively ( a Vice article part of a series on YouTubers), the other two only mention her in passing: the BuzzFeed News article about the Balenciaga controversy only covers her TikTok video and the Vocativ article covers her arrest during a public demonstration (and only the first half of the article talks about her or the arrest). I don't think the criteria are being met yet. Kzkzb ( talk) 13:45, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

@ Dream Focus On your first reply:
The Vocativ article only talks about her arrest in its first half (likely as part of broader coverage of the protests), and only talks about Venti herself in a two-sentence paragraph; this is hardly significant coverage, regardless of the fact that she is named in the article's byline. And even if multiple articles were made about her arrest, that would count towards the notability of her arrest, not towards the notability of Venti herself.
Although I agree that the Vice article brings her closer to meeting the criteria, Wikipedia:BASIC states that People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources, while she has only received significant coverage in one. I would change my mind if I were shown another article in the same vein of that article but I haven't found any.
On your second reply:
I had seen that Dorkaholics article and chose not to include it in my reasoning because I wasn't sure if it was considered a reliable source, but I'll take your word for it. However it doesn't give her significant coverage since it's an opinion piece on a YouTube video of her being harassed by trolls, where she is only described as a YouTuber and streamer.
On your third reply:
I had glossed over that New Statesman article in my research since its title didn't seem relevant to the topic. It's about a YouTuber named Sophia and it only mentions Venti by name once ("Lieutenant Corbis was kind of a corny name", she tells Brittany Venti, another young, far-right YouTube star.) so it doesn't give her significant coverage. -- Kzkzb ( talk) 15:20, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. I've found an additional source, and improved the article using it and existing sources. She has made news for her anti-misogyny work, then been featured in a notable documentary about that, also made news for being banned from Twitch, and for being arrested. Her role in the Balenciaga ad campaign controversy alone could make her notable. All that said, written reliable sources don't have extensive coverage about her. But in the context of WP:BASIC saying People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject., then I think that is exactly how I see this article.

  • Comment - I removed content per WP:BLPCRIME and do not think sources only supporting content suggesting the person has committed, or is accused of having committed, a crime can be used to support notability for this subject per policy. I can access The New Statesman article, which focuses its 4-graf coverage on a YouTuber who produces racist, misogynist content and may be doing this "ironically", and only has this about Venti: "“Lieutenant Corbis was kind of a corny name”, she tells Brittany Venti, another young, far-right YouTube star." Beccaynr ( talk) 05:40, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    FWIW, and I am not certain, but I think most of her content is satire.

    I don't think it matters. This is only a question of whether there is sufficient support for WP:GNG/ WP:BASIC notability. There just does not appear to be much in-depth content available, even with combined sources, to develop an article about her. Beccaynr ( talk) 07:01, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - per WP:BASIC. The 2016 Vice article is essentially a review of her work (by contrast, Dorkaholics has no editorial standards that I could find, and their post is not a review), and the 2022 Guardian documentary review offers three sentences: "When Theroux interviewed Brittany Venti, one of the rare women involved in the bros’ work and the recipient of the above rape threat, she said she had assumed most of what they said was tongue-in-cheek. But when they turned on her, she realised the misogyny (“They say all women are whores”) was real rather than ironic. She has not yet extrapolated further, still making light of anti-semitic footage and although mixed race herself, apparently unperturbed from the beginning by the racism that is central to the cause." In the 2022 book Meme Wars, she is described as a "well-known internet troll" at p.177 with a brief mention of her participation in disrupting an online performance piece by Shia LaBeouf, and she is reported by Buzzfeed News in December 2022 to have first tweeted about the Balenciaga campaign, e.g. "(“I don’t know for a fact that Balenciaga are satanists or whatever,” Venti told BuzzFeed News, "but I can see why some would draw that conclusion.”)". It seems WP:TOOSOON for a standalone article due to a lack of significant coverage. She seems to have some notoriety, but this is not the same as notability; the brief, trivial, and occasionally tabloid-style coverage seems insufficient to support a BLP at this time. Beccaynr ( talk) 06:49, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Dorkaholics is like other sources. They have a paid staff and editing standards. They don't allow anyone to submit content. They wrote an entire article about something she did. Her actions get coverage over a long period time in many different places. As for the documentary, it is notable enough to be reviewed, and a significant portion of it has her in it. Dream Focus 07:53, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Dorkaholics appears to functionally be a blog, and the 2 grafs plus 2 sentences post is a superficial description of one incident, without secondary depth about her similar to the Vice 'review'. Her work has not received significant coverage over a long time in multiple independent and reliable sources, and there is hardly any secondary coverage to situate her work beyond "well known troll" and "far-right YouTube star".
    As to the 3-part documentary series, according to the Evening Standard, she was "Theroux’s only female interviewee", and the "series also dives into Florida’s rap scene, and how the porn industry is responding to the MeToo movement". She appears in a notable series, and two reviews briefly focus on her experience with misogyny, with the Guardian also observing her apparent ongoing lack of concern over anti-semitism and racism, but this is limited secondary coverage. At this time, it appears only a few disjointed sentences can be written about her, because of the limited, superficial, and insufficient coverage available to support notability.

Footballer had very brief professional career but has spent most of his career as a semi-pro with seemingly little coverage. The Belarusian Wikipedia article has some sources but they fail to show WP:GNG and WP:SPORTBASIC. Pressball is a trivial mention in a quote from his coach. Football 1 is a brief transfer announcement, which appears to be sourced to his club's website. In any case, the coverage is too weak for GNG. Football 2 is sourced to Twitter and is only routine sports coverage. In my own searches in Russian and Belarusian, all I can find is Sportnaviny, another very brief transfer announcement, and some Wikipedia mirrors.

Can't find anything better than just a trivial mention so doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:SPORTBASIC despite having some involvement with the national team. No hits in Burmese in Google News and the English results show only trivial mentions.

Three sources are currently cited, one of which is Facebook. The other two sources are a very brief injury announcement and the other is a one-sentence squad announcement.

  • Merge (was "Keep" -Doncram ( talk, contribs) 16:33, 17 January 2023 (UTC)), on belief that does exist coverage somewhere for a project of this size (52 floors), more than 200m tall. Alternatively it would be okay to include this as a row in a list of tall buildings, including sourcing, and redirect to that. I am not sure of what the cutoff height should be, but to me it would make sense just to accept coverage in Wikipedia of buildings taller than that (and I used to think 100 meters would work). For some height, there are only say 10,000 buildings world-wide, and it would save a lot of ridiculous churning in creation and deletion of articles about them. --Doncram ( talk, contribs) 05:45, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply
BTW there is List of tallest buildings in Doha, Qatar which includes numerous buildings of fewer floors and also there is List of tallest skyscrapers in Qatar. The latter explicitly states it is for buildings 100m or taller. Maybe the two list-articles should be merged, I dunno, but they should be modified to allow descriptive text and sourcing, and then to allow redirects to individual rows (using table row anchors like id=JW Marriott Tower Hotel ).
About AFDs about individual tall buildings or about lists of them, they should not be allowed. Partly because too many editors come along and try to make a career for themselves in tilting away at them. --Doncram ( talk, contribs) 05:56, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Of course outright "delete" cannot be the sensible outcome. "Merge" of the two list-articles to one list of tallest buildings or structures in Qatar is obviously sensible, IMHO. And "merge" of the JW Marriott Tower Hotel article to its list-article row (or possibly "redirect" if one wants to assert absolutely zero value to the existing article) is superior. --Doncram ( talk, contribs) 05:08, 15 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Well, a closer can and should make an AFD outcome of "Merge" whether or not there is such a volunteer, just because it is the right thing to do. The closer does not need to effect the merge, but, per wp:AfD and mergers, rather can use "{{ afd-mergeto}} and {{ afd-mergefrom}} tags on the appropriate pages, which tags the articles for merging via ordinary editing.

    Probably the fact that 2 of them are just one line mentions. DonaldD23 talk to me 12:57, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Donaldd23: RS is about reliability, not extent of coverage. Shahid • Talk2me 13:42, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    True, but GNG is about significant coverage. And one line in a book does not meet that. DonaldD23 talk to me 16:17, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Donaldd23: Moops did not mention GNG, only RS - so I can't see why you'd defend that. And one line can establish notability, depends on what it says. Shahid • Talk2me 17:21, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    WP:SIGCOV is also a valid concern, thanks Donaldd23. Books, being primary sources, are okay, but not by themselves without substantiated secondary sources from a GNG standpoint. — Moops ⋠ T⋡ 18:04, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    One line in a book can establish notability? Please, please link the policy that says that. DonaldD23 talk to me 18:21, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Donaldd23: Please show where it says in SIGCOV that one line is excluded from establishing notability. SIGCOV talks about trivial mentions, and it's not the same thing. If one line says, "X, which is considered one of the best Indian films of all time", that wouldn't qualify as a trivial mention - it's one line but one that carries a lot of weight. The books cited on the page do not provide trivial mentions, in my opinion (neither do they give deep coverage but that is beside the point). Further information is provided about the film's budget, box-office performance, theme. The film definitely gets sufficient coverage and all the mentions together create what I believe is notability per WP:GNG. That's why I'm saying, it's better to agree to disagree. Shahid • Talk2me 19:59, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    That's a pretty broad definition of SIGCOV covering one line. A statement by someone saying something is "the best of all time" is trivial unless backed up by multiple independent and reputable critics. I can publish a book saying that " Mouse Rat is one of the best bands ever", but that does not make it SIGCOV. But, yes, lets agree to disagree and let other editors weigh in.

  • Comment (for now) Ref#1 Encyclopaedia of Indian Cinema - Verifies that the film exists, nothing towards notability #2 BollywoodHungama - database entry for verification #3 Queer Asian Cinema has a trivial mention that the film is about male-bonding. #4 BollySwar - More or less a database in the form of a book #5 India Today - Provides budget and box-office verdict (aka trivial mention) #6 Tribune - Primary source (need to be discarded to prove notability) #7 White on Green - Mentions one of the lead character's (Mohsin's) favourite performance and describes what he does in the film aka description of the film aka plot summary [that we usually write in the lead] - all trivial #8 Crossover stars - A mention of Mohsin's successful film which is this film ——— I don't think the sources presented in the article count towards GNG. Since all being trivial mentions, they need to collectively establish GNG, which I believe are not. While there certainly will could be offline sources, in an AfD one should actually present them despite them being hard to find. Perhaps someday someone will be able to uncover them and the article could be revived. WP:NEXIST encourages editors to consider the possibility that sources may still exist even if their search failed to uncover any, as such I'm still undecided on what my !vote would be. — DaxServer ( t · m · c) 18:36, 30 December 2022 (UTC) (14:21, 2 January 2023 (UTC)) reply
    The new ref #7 Deccan Chronicle - Comment from the director - primary source. While the book "Crossover stars" says the film is Mohsin's successful film, it is unclear if that is a major part of their career - from WP:NF#Inclusionary criteria. "Most successful film" ≠ "major part of their career" unless stated by WP:RS
    Addressing a comment from above: no sources from the era prior to the 2000s are available from the Indian press online. Since we are at AfD determining the notability, these sources need to be uncovered as we must verify. Offline sources are acceptable but not a broad veil argument that "[they are] available from xyz" without providing any WP:NRV evidence.

"Anzhi Makhachkala's Europa League bonuses at risk over William transfer" - Anzhi's conduct in signing Brazilian forward William Arthur Conceicao dos Santos in April 2010 was "unethical and unlawful," Onsoccer director Antonio Araujo said in a written statement to the Associated Press. William spent less than one month as an Anzhi player before returning to Portugal when officials ordered him from the team hotel in Moscow at 3 a.m. before a match, according to a ruling when CAS first judged the dispute last year. "We had no other choice than (recourse) to the Swiss courts in order to freeze the monies that Anzhi is entitled to receive from UEFA, via the Russian Football Association," Araujo said.

Things have not improved and we are now in the situation where this is looking more and more like it's going to end up in WP:FRINGEBLP territory except it does not seem that many have noticed his peculiar ideas. I am sympathetic to the concern that his early work might be notable, but I think we really need to have third-party independent sources about the man in order to write a biography of him. As it is, we just do not have that and none seem to be forthcoming. Maybe at some point some third-party biographies will be published which will help us provide contextualization. Until then, we really shouldn't be hosting such poorly sources biographies for obvious reasons. Previous AfD did not seem to deal substantively with the lack of sources independent of Zamora which is what we will need to do anything like a cleanup.

He has two books listed, one is published by his own consulting company and I believe falls under self-published sources, and the second is to a publisher whose site seems dedicated to selling psychic reading ads complete with a page hijack ad consisting of a disembodied Ms. Cleo head floating across page content. Extremely uninspiring for sourcing purposes. -- (loopback) ping/ whereis 10:48, 5 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment there are two questions here. (1) the Fringe concerns; that he has created a consulting company and self-published doesn't undermine what he did before, so if he was notable for his previous scientific career, he remains notable. Forget the fringe. (2) But for the rest, the reason everyone's disagreeing is that some people are using general notability, and others are extrapolating him from industrial scientist into WP:NPROF-space and judging his primary publications and influence of his work as evidence of criterion 1. I think it's illogical to deny NPROF to all who've done their science in an industrial sphere, thereby excluding from WP a lot of people whose work has changed the way the world operates, but who didn't get in the newspapers (scientists, even engineers, rarely do). If you're going to have NPROF, it mustn't be restricted to universities. On that basis I think he's a weak keep. Elemimele ( talk) 18:33, 5 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    I think you are right about the two elements of the discussion here. However, I do not think that he meets NPROF.

I am not seeing anything to support meeting NPROF, which, right or wrong, is restricted to academics: people whose impact can be assessed through their scholarly or educational contributions. Non-publishing industrial scientists can absolutely be notable through their leadership in technology, product design, implementation, etc., but like fashion designers and architects and other creative professionals the only available way to document this with SIRS is through GNG. A handful of articles in IS and trade journals is not sufficient for NPROF C1a, and the evidence for C1b is similarly lacking, so we're left with GNG as our notability criteria and I don't believe he meets that either.

Ringardiumleviossa ( talk) 02:28, 10 January 2023 (UTC) reply
My understanding of WP:N is that the sources just have to exist for the subject to be notable, not that they have to be currently used in the article. At WP:ARTN it says Notability is a property of a subject and not of a Wikipedia article. If the subject has not been covered outside of Wikipedia, no amount of improvements to the Wikipedia content will suddenly make the subject notable. Conversely, if the source material exists, even very poor writing and referencing within a Wikipedia article will not decrease the subject's notability. (emphasis mine) So even if the sources aren't used in the article, it is still notable and the page should still be kept. OliveYouBean ( talk) 08:23, 10 January 2023 (UTC) reply
As per WP:INDISCRIMINATE, merely being true, or even verifiable, does not automatically make something suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia.
This page clearly fails WP:NOTPLOT: Wikipedia treats creative works (including, for example, works of art or fiction, video games, documentaries, research books or papers, and religious texts) in an encyclopedic manner, discussing the development, design, reception, significance, and influence of works in addition to concise summaries of those works. Ringardiumleviossa ( talk) 09:07, 10 January 2023 (UTC) reply
Yes, Wikipedia does treat works of fiction in an encylopedic manner. That means if the sources exist to be able to do this, the subject should get an article. The sources exist to be able to do this (I linked a couple in my vote), so the subject passes WP:N and should have an article. Notability is about the subject, not the article.

@ OliveYouBean I was pointing that page fails WP:NOTPLOT, one of the main reasons for getting deleted as per WP:DEL-REASON. See instruction page for 14th point of Wikipedia:Deletion policy. Only one above-mentioned source is reliable. Just existing in-world notability sources doesn't mean it is always reliable.

  • Keep Since there were plenty of sources to establish N for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Quiet Council of Krakoa, it follows logically that those also establish notability for the parent topic. Both editors in favor of redirection admit that regular editing could fix any current problems with the page... so there's really no case for deletion at all.

  • Keep - per the previous discussions already noted; per Jclemens, above, who I think said it better than I could've; per everyone else on this page; and really per common sense. Sigh. Maybe we need to take another look at how subjective GNG is, if we're going to continually see it merely being repeatedly used as code for WP:IDONTLIKEIT... - jc37 12:17, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep It seems to me the argumentation for deletion is again based on the current state of the article, which is explicitely not decisive according to WP:NEXIST. It has been shown in this and previous deletion discussions that secondary sources exist to establish notability. The way to solve the problem with too much plot summary is therefore not deletion but improvement with the help of these sources. There is no deadline for such improvements, and no specific Wikipedian is required to do anything, but as usual I'd expect those most offended by the current imperfect state of the article to be the first ones to take action for improvement.

Well, according to the paid editing site shared above, at least he'll get to keep his page on Wikialpha...

To be blunt, it's a wikipedia rip-off site, one of hundreds out there. I guess dentists make lots of money as well... If you're notable, we'll create your article here for free.

Non-notable. The alleged "world records" were registered not by Guinness but by obscure title mill organizations that themselves did not warrant Wikipedia articles. Most of the sources listed are WordPress blogs, not proper news websites. The so-called "Paradox Sonic Space Research Association", of which the article subject is the "CEO", consists of an empty website, and it seems that they cannot even make up their minds whether it's called "Paradox Sonic Space Research Association" or "Paradox Sonic Space Research Agency". Either way, WP:COMPANY are clearly not met. Building a cubesat is not particularly impressive, one can buy a cubesat kit for several thousand dollars. He received several awards, yes, but WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NOTNP.

The article has a lot of WP:EXTRAORDINARY claims but questionable sources to support those claims.

How did they verify it seven years after it supposedly happened, took them at their word? Invented a time machine to go back and make sure nobody helped him make the website? Even if that world record site was 100% reliable and didn't have such an emphasis on selling "world record" status as a product (We work with brands and enterprises worldwide to deliver the ultimate record-breaking marketing campaigns.

    The "title mill award" was a reference to the claims of being the "World's Youngest Theoretical Author" and "World's Youngest Webmaster", which are indeed only sourced by title mill websites.

    From your own link: "world’s youngest webmaster (male)’ certification from World Record Certification Limited, London".
    "World Record Certification" is a title mill for those who don't meet Guinness requirements. A newspaper reporting on a title mill award does not establish notability. Escargoten ( talk) 22:49, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete per Oaktree's reasoning. Appears to be more churnalism. As mentioned before, being on a top 100 or a 30 under 30 list isn't notable. Rashtriya is given out to 20-30 kids a year, and it is not clear if this is equivalent to a Presidential Scholars Program (given to about 100-120 students a year), which doesn't confer individual notability. Needs references to the actual Guinness World Records site where they list kids who broke notable records. AngusW🐶🐶F ( bark • sniff) 16:04, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Pradhan Mantri Rashtriya Bal Puraskar is equivalent to Presidential Scholars Program but is more selective in nature. Wednesdaykaur ( talk) 16:38, 13 January 2023 (UTC) — Wednesdaykaur ( talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. reply
    I don't know about that. Presidential Scholars is quite selective (only 2 per state). Still at the equivalent of a 30 under 30 selection. The article really needs more GNG sources. AngusW🐶🐶F ( bark • sniff) 13:33, 15 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    And they get a heck of a lot more coverage than this person does. I almost think this is a hoax, the more we discuss it, the worse the quality of the sources gets. I would hazard a guess that this was created to boost whatever business the person is trying to promote.
    "Kid builds satellite at school, creates website for and about himself and claims to have won non-notable awards (that were either paid for, or are given out to many children each year)" seems to be the subject being discussed.

    Please also note per WP:RSP for Guinness World Records (which is marked as yellow): "There is consensus that world records verified by Guinness World Records should not be used to establish notability.

  • Redirect to Playground as an ATD - User:Liz, the merge discussion has had minimal activity in the last three months, with 3 opposes and 1 support. Reading the two articles, I agree with the opposition to the merge: there's nothing of value currently in this article for playground. That said, commercial playgrounds clearly meets GNG; I found several reasonable academic sources. (ex: [1]) Thus, because it seems like a reasonable search term (as it is an industry term that has been used over the years by academics and the press), I favor keeping the term as a redirect. Any reliable sources related to commercial playgrounds can be productively added to Playground#Types, with no prejudice against splitting the article if someone wants to write a more elaborate history on commercial playgrounds/playspaces in the future.

A Russian article on Forbes ( [14]) seems to be the most valuable reference, somehow showing Boyka's notability: she was listed in the Russian Forbes 30 Under 30 as the most prominent female musician below 30 in 2022.

Badly sourced BLP on a semi-pro footballer/futsal player with nothing to contribute to WP:GNG or WP:SPORTBASIC. A Hungarian source search yielded some sources which I will analyse. ZAOL mentions him once in the main text, confirming that he is the top scorer of the Western Division of the second tier of Hungarian futsal. Not much of a claim to notability there. Kanizsa Újság is a local Nagykanizsa-based paper which mentions Bogyó a few times in the match report. Zala County's Zala Sport also has some match report coverage of amateur futsal that mentions him a few times. I can't find anything better than these match reports so there is no reasonable opportunity to build a biography for Bogyó. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 20:50, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

This film was tagged for notability by another editor. I removed the tag because it has 8 Critic Reviews at Rotten Tomatoes, including Variety and The Guardian.

The other editor said 8 reviews from RT is irrelevant and stated, "No, in fact - the consensus at MOS:FILM has been is that 8 reviews is NOT enough for films - remove aggregator again." This is NOT true, as MOS:FILMCRITICS (which is the policy for using RT as a source) does not list a minimum number of critic reviews at RT for inclusion in an article.

I feel this article should be KEPT and should have the notability tag removed, but when I remove it another editor adds it back. Lets decide once and for all, is this film notable enough to be kept and have the notability tag removed, or should it be deleted? Thank you. DonaldD23 talk to me 18:16, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

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

Per WP:BASIC. I could only find 3 reliable secondary sources covering her at all and only one of them covers her extensively ( a Vice article part of a series on YouTubers), the other two only mention her in passing: the BuzzFeed News article about the Balenciaga controversy only covers her TikTok video and the Vocativ article covers her arrest during a public demonstration (and only the first half of the article talks about her or the arrest). I don't think the criteria are being met yet. Kzkzb ( talk) 13:45, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

@ Dream Focus On your first reply:
The Vocativ article only talks about her arrest in its first half (likely as part of broader coverage of the protests), and only talks about Venti herself in a two-sentence paragraph; this is hardly significant coverage, regardless of the fact that she is named in the article's byline. And even if multiple articles were made about her arrest, that would count towards the notability of her arrest, not towards the notability of Venti herself.
Although I agree that the Vice article brings her closer to meeting the criteria, Wikipedia:BASIC states that People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources, while she has only received significant coverage in one. I would change my mind if I were shown another article in the same vein of that article but I haven't found any.
On your second reply:
I had seen that Dorkaholics article and chose not to include it in my reasoning because I wasn't sure if it was considered a reliable source, but I'll take your word for it. However it doesn't give her significant coverage since it's an opinion piece on a YouTube video of her being harassed by trolls, where she is only described as a YouTuber and streamer.
On your third reply:
I had glossed over that New Statesman article in my research since its title didn't seem relevant to the topic. It's about a YouTuber named Sophia and it only mentions Venti by name once ("Lieutenant Corbis was kind of a corny name", she tells Brittany Venti, another young, far-right YouTube star.) so it doesn't give her significant coverage. -- Kzkzb ( talk) 15:20, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. I've found an additional source, and improved the article using it and existing sources. She has made news for her anti-misogyny work, then been featured in a notable documentary about that, also made news for being banned from Twitch, and for being arrested. Her role in the Balenciaga ad campaign controversy alone could make her notable. All that said, written reliable sources don't have extensive coverage about her. But in the context of WP:BASIC saying People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject., then I think that is exactly how I see this article. CT55555( talk) 05:16, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - I removed content per WP:BLPCRIME and do not think sources only supporting content suggesting the person has committed, or is accused of having committed, a crime can be used to support notability for this subject per policy. I can access The New Statesman article, which focuses its 4-graf coverage on a YouTuber who produces racist, misogynist content and may be doing this "ironically", and only has this about Venti: "“Lieutenant Corbis was kind of a corny name”, she tells Brittany Venti, another young, far-right YouTube star." Beccaynr ( talk) 05:40, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    FWIW, and I am not certain, but I think most of her content is satire.

    I don't think it matters. This is only a question of whether there is sufficient support for WP:GNG/ WP:BASIC notability. There just does not appear to be much in-depth content available, even with combined sources, to develop an article about her. Beccaynr ( talk) 07:01, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - per WP:BASIC. The 2016 Vice article is essentially a review of her work (by contrast, Dorkaholics has no editorial standards that I could find, and their post is not a review), and the 2022 Guardian documentary review offers three sentences: "When Theroux interviewed Brittany Venti, one of the rare women involved in the bros’ work and the recipient of the above rape threat, she said she had assumed most of what they said was tongue-in-cheek. But when they turned on her, she realised the misogyny (“They say all women are whores”) was real rather than ironic. She has not yet extrapolated further, still making light of anti-semitic footage and although mixed race herself, apparently unperturbed from the beginning by the racism that is central to the cause." In the 2022 book Meme Wars, she is described as a "well-known internet troll" at p.177 with a brief mention of her participation in disrupting an online performance piece by Shia LaBeouf, and she is reported by Buzzfeed News in December 2022 to have first tweeted about the Balenciaga campaign, e.g. "(“I don’t know for a fact that Balenciaga are satanists or whatever,” Venti told BuzzFeed News, "but I can see why some would draw that conclusion.”)". It seems WP:TOOSOON for a standalone article due to a lack of significant coverage. She seems to have some notoriety, but this is not the same as notability; the brief, trivial, and occasionally tabloid-style coverage seems insufficient to support a BLP at this time. Beccaynr ( talk) 06:49, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Dorkaholics is like other sources. They have a paid staff and editing standards. They don't allow anyone to submit content. They wrote an entire article about something she did. Her actions get coverage over a long period time in many different places. As for the documentary, it is notable enough to be reviewed, and a significant portion of it has her in it. Dream Focus 07:53, 13 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    Dorkaholics appears to functionally be a blog, and the 2 grafs plus 2 sentences post is a superficial description of one incident, without secondary depth about her similar to the Vice 'review'. Her work has not received significant coverage over a long time in multiple independent and reliable sources, and there is hardly any secondary coverage to situate her work beyond "well known troll" and "far-right YouTube star".
    As to the 3-part documentary series, according to the Evening Standard, she was "Theroux’s only female interviewee", and the "series also dives into Florida’s rap scene, and how the porn industry is responding to the MeToo movement". She appears in a notable series, and two reviews briefly focus on her experience with misogyny, with the Guardian also observing her apparent ongoing lack of concern over anti-semitism and racism, but this is limited secondary coverage. At this time, it appears only a few disjointed sentences can be written about her, because of the limited, superficial, and insufficient coverage available to support notability.

Footballer had very brief professional career but has spent most of his career as a semi-pro with seemingly little coverage. The Belarusian Wikipedia article has some sources but they fail to show WP:GNG and WP:SPORTBASIC. Pressball is a trivial mention in a quote from his coach. Football 1 is a brief transfer announcement, which appears to be sourced to his club's website. In any case, the coverage is too weak for GNG. Football 2 is sourced to Twitter and is only routine sports coverage. In my own searches in Russian and Belarusian, all I can find is Sportnaviny, another very brief transfer announcement, and some Wikipedia mirrors.

Can't find anything better than just a trivial mention so doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:SPORTBASIC despite having some involvement with the national team. No hits in Burmese in Google News and the English results show only trivial mentions.

Three sources are currently cited, one of which is Facebook. The other two sources are a very brief injury announcement and the other is a one-sentence squad announcement. More recently, Myanmar Digital Newspaper mentions him once and Duwun says he was removed from his club's squad for 'breaking the rules' but doesn't elaborate on that at all.

  • Merge (was "Keep" -Doncram ( talk, contribs) 16:33, 17 January 2023 (UTC)), on belief that does exist coverage somewhere for a project of this size (52 floors), more than 200m tall. Alternatively it would be okay to include this as a row in a list of tall buildings, including sourcing, and redirect to that. I am not sure of what the cutoff height should be, but to me it would make sense just to accept coverage in Wikipedia of buildings taller than that (and I used to think 100 meters would work). For some height, there are only say 10,000 buildings world-wide, and it would save a lot of ridiculous churning in creation and deletion of articles about them. --Doncram ( talk, contribs) 05:45, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply
BTW there is List of tallest buildings in Doha, Qatar which includes numerous buildings of fewer floors and also there is List of tallest skyscrapers in Qatar. The latter explicitly states it is for buildings 100m or taller. Maybe the two list-articles should be merged, I dunno, but they should be modified to allow descriptive text and sourcing, and then to allow redirects to individual rows (using table row anchors like id=JW Marriott Tower Hotel ).
About AFDs about individual tall buildings or about lists of them, they should not be allowed. Partly because too many editors come along and try to make a career for themselves in tilting away at them. --Doncram ( talk, contribs) 05:56, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. This building fails WP:NBUILD which says that commerical buildings may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant in-depth coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability. That's not happening here. -- Mikeblas ( talk) 22:21, 14 January 2023 (UTC) reply
Of course outright "delete" cannot be the sensible outcome. "Merge" of the two list-articles to one list of tallest buildings or structures in Qatar is obviously sensible, IMHO. And "merge" of the JW Marriott Tower Hotel article to its list-article row (or possibly "redirect" if one wants to assert absolutely zero value to the existing article) is superior. --Doncram ( talk, contribs) 05:08, 15 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Well, a closer can and should make an AFD outcome of "Merge" whether or not there is such a volunteer, just because it is the right thing to do. The closer does not need to effect the merge, but, per wp:AfD and mergers, rather can use "{{ afd-mergeto}} and {{ afd-mergefrom}} tags on the appropriate pages, which tags the articles for merging via ordinary editing. The XFDcloser gadget supports these tags."

    None of the added sources are reviews. Two of the books only have one line devoted to the film, another book is just a database listing. One book doesn't have a preview available so I cannot judge its merit...but even in the off chance it is a thorough review, one isn't enough for notability requirements. DonaldD23 talk to me 22:12, 28 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Donaldd23: Read WP:GNG. That you do not have access to the books, doesn't mean it's not a proper source. And finally, you should know by now, no sources from the era prior to the 2000s are available from the Indian press online. Your logic would mean no Indian film from older Hindi cinema could be notable. I object. Shahid • Talk2me 11:57, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    I acknowledged that the one book I couldn't access might be counted toward notability, so I am not sure what your disagreement it? As for the other 2 books that I do have access to...they are just a one line mention and you should know by now that that is not anywhere close to meeting WP:GNG guidelines. Existing does not mean inclusion on Wikipedia. DonaldD23 talk to me 12:56, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Donaldd23: Let's agree to disagree and let the community decide. I've said it many times, I see tremendous bias against Indian articles just because they do not have the amount of coverage present in the west.

    WP:SIGCOV is also a valid concern, thanks Donaldd23. Books, being primary sources, are okay, but not by themselves without substantiated secondary sources from a GNG standpoint. — Moops ⋠ T⋡ 18:04, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    One line in a book can establish notability? Please, please link the policy that says that. DonaldD23 talk to me 18:21, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Donaldd23: Please show where it says in SIGCOV that one line is excluded from establishing notability. SIGCOV talks about trivial mentions, and it's not the same thing. If one line says, "X, which is considered one of the best Indian films of all time", that wouldn't qualify as a trivial mention - it's one line but one that carries a lot of weight. The books cited on the page do not provide trivial mentions, in my opinion (neither do they give deep coverage but that is beside the point). Further information is provided about the film's budget, box-office performance, theme. The film definitely gets sufficient coverage and all the mentions together create what I believe is notability per WP:GNG. That's why I'm saying, it's better to agree to disagree. Shahid • Talk2me 19:59, 29 December 2022 (UTC) reply
    That's a pretty broad definition of SIGCOV covering one line. A statement by someone saying something is "the best of all time" is trivial unless backed up by multiple independent and reputable critics. I can publish a book saying that " Mouse Rat is one of the best bands ever", but that does not make it SIGCOV. But, yes, lets agree to disagree and let other editors weigh in.

  • Comment (for now) Ref#1 Encyclopaedia of Indian Cinema - Verifies that the film exists, nothing towards notability #2 BollywoodHungama - database entry for verification #3 Queer Asian Cinema has a trivial mention that the film is about male-bonding. #4 BollySwar - More or less a database in the form of a book #5 India Today - Provides budget and box-office verdict (aka trivial mention) #6 Tribune - Primary source (need to be discarded to prove notability) #7 White on Green - Mentions one of the lead character's (Mohsin's) favourite performance and describes what he does in the film aka description of the film aka plot summary [that we usually write in the lead] - all trivial #8 Crossover stars - A mention of Mohsin's successful film which is this film ——— I don't think the sources presented in the article count towards GNG. Since all being trivial mentions, they need to collectively establish GNG, which I believe are not. While there certainly will could be offline sources, in an AfD one should actually present them despite them being hard to find. Perhaps someday someone will be able to uncover them and the article could be revived.

    The new ref #7 Deccan Chronicle - Comment from the director - primary source. While the book "Crossover stars" says the film is Mohsin's successful film, it is unclear if that is a major part of their career - from WP:NF#Inclusionary criteria. "Most successful film" ≠ "major part of their career" unless stated by WP:RS
    Addressing a comment from above: no sources from the era prior to the 2000s are available from the Indian press online. Since we are at AfD determining the notability, these sources need to be uncovered as we must verify. Offline sources are acceptable but not a broad veil argument that "[they are] available from xyz" without providing any WP:NRV evidence.

"Anzhi Makhachkala's Europa League bonuses at risk over William transfer" - Anzhi's conduct in signing Brazilian forward William Arthur Conceicao dos Santos in April 2010 was "unethical and unlawful," Onsoccer director Antonio Araujo said in a written statement to the Associated Press. William spent less than one month as an Anzhi player before returning to Portugal when officials ordered him from the team hotel in Moscow at 3 a.m. before a match, according to a ruling when CAS first judged the dispute last year. "We had no other choice than (recourse) to the Swiss courts in order to freeze the monies that Anzhi is entitled to receive from UEFA, via the Russian Football Association," Araujo said. Also about (not) joining Romanian Astra Ploiesti [29] [30]. Also found some more mentions with other teammates. No idea whats this about: [31] I'm sure there's more sources and offline ones too.

Things have not improved and we are now in the situation where this is looking more and more like it's going to end up in WP:FRINGEBLP territory except it does not seem that many have noticed his peculiar ideas. I am sympathetic to the concern that his early work might be notable, but I think we really need to have third-party independent sources about the man in order to write a biography of him. As it is, we just do not have that and none seem to be forthcoming. Maybe at some point some third-party biographies will be published which will help us provide contextualization. Until then, we really shouldn't be hosting such poorly sources biographies for obvious reasons. Previous AfD did not seem to deal substantively with the lack of sources independent of Zamora which is what we will need to do anything like a cleanup. I cannot find any either. jps ( talk) 06:01, 22 December 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Some serious BLPFRINGE concerns here. He has two books listed, one is published by his own consulting company and I believe falls under self-published sources, and the second is to a publisher whose site seems dedicated to selling psychic reading ads complete with a page hijack ad consisting of a disembodied Ms. Cleo head floating across page content. Extremely uninspiring for sourcing purposes. -- (loopback) ping/ whereis 10:48, 5 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment there are two questions here. (1) the Fringe concerns; that he has created a consulting company and self-published doesn't undermine what he did before, so if he was notable for his previous scientific career, he remains notable. Forget the fringe. (2) But for the rest, the reason everyone's disagreeing is that some people are using general notability, and others are extrapolating him from industrial scientist into WP:NPROF-space and judging his primary publications and influence of his work as evidence of criterion 1. I think it's illogical to deny NPROF to all who've done their science in an industrial sphere, thereby excluding from WP a lot of people whose work has changed the way the world operates, but who didn't get in the newspapers (scientists, even engineers, rarely do). If you're going to have NPROF, it mustn't be restricted to universities. On that basis I think he's a weak keep. Elemimele ( talk) 18:33, 5 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    I think you are right about the two elements of the discussion here. However, I do not think that he meets NPROF. That is because, although he had some moderately well-cited papers, he does not meet any of the criteria of NPROF. We have nothing that would say that he had a significant impact in his field, that he held a notable position, nor that he has received a major award. I just don't see it. Lamona ( talk) 03:12, 6 January 2023 (UTC) reply
    @ Lamona: Yes, you have a point. That's why I put him down as a rather weak keep rather than a solid keep; I think he's very much borderline, so I'm not greatly surprised if others assess his impact less enthusiastically than I do. Elemimele ( talk) 07:02, 6 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. I am not seeing anything to support meeting NPROF, which, right or wrong, is restricted to academics: people whose impact can be assessed through their scholarly or educational contributions. Non-publishing industrial scientists can absolutely be notable through their leadership in technology, product design, implementation, etc., but like fashion designers and architects and other creative professionals the only available way to document this with SIRS is through GNG. A handful of articles in IS and trade journals is not sufficient for NPROF C1a, and the evidence for C1b is similarly lacking, so we're left with GNG as our notability criteria and I don't believe he meets that either. JoelleJay ( talk) 22:17, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Ringardiumleviossa ( talk) 02:28, 10 January 2023 (UTC) reply
My understanding of WP:N is that the sources just have to exist for the subject to be notable, not that they have to be currently used in the article. At WP:ARTN it says Notability is a property of a subject and not of a Wikipedia article. If the subject has not been covered outside of Wikipedia, no amount of improvements to the Wikipedia content will suddenly make the subject notable. Conversely, if the source material exists, even very poor writing and referencing within a Wikipedia article will not decrease the subject's notability. (emphasis mine) So even if the sources aren't used in the article, it is still notable and the page should still be kept. OliveYouBean ( talk) 08:23, 10 January 2023 (UTC) reply
As per WP:INDISCRIMINATE, merely being true, or even verifiable, does not automatically make something suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia.
This page clearly fails WP:NOTPLOT: Wikipedia treats creative works (including, for example, works of art or fiction, video games, documentaries, research books or papers, and religious texts) in an encyclopedic manner, discussing the development, design, reception, significance, and influence of works in addition to concise summaries of those works. Ringardiumleviossa ( talk) 09:07, 10 January 2023 (UTC) reply
Yes, Wikipedia does treat works of fiction in an encylopedic manner. That means if the sources exist to be able to do this, the subject should get an article. The sources exist to be able to do this (I linked a couple in my vote), so the subject passes WP:N and should have an article. Notability is about the subject, not the article. OliveYouBean ( talk) 13:05, 10 January 2023 (UTC) reply
@ OliveYouBean I was pointing that page fails WP:NOTPLOT, one of the main reasons for getting deleted as per WP:DEL-REASON. See instruction page for 14th point of Wikipedia:Deletion policy. Only one above-mentioned source is reliable. Just existing in-world notability sources doesn't mean it is always reliable. According to WP:SCHOLARSHIP, Journals that are not peer reviewed by the wider academic community should not be considered reliable; so Representations of Israel, literal and allegorical, in X-Men comics fails WP:SCHOLARSHIP.

  • Keep It seems to me the argumentation for deletion is again based on the current state of the article, which is explicitely not decisive according to WP:NEXIST. It has been shown in this and previous deletion discussions that secondary sources exist to establish notability. The way to solve the problem with too much plot summary is therefore not deletion but improvement with the help of these sources. There is no deadline for such improvements, and no specific Wikipedian is required to do anything, but as usual I'd expect those most offended by the current imperfect state of the article to be the first ones to take action for improvement.

  • Weak keep This [34] and [35], she won an award from the State of Maryland. Reported on in the newspaper and the governor's office. Oaktree b ( talk) 01:23, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - Agree with Oaktree. While this is far from the strongest keep out there, the weak coverage is just enough to persuade me against deletion. MaxnaCarta ( talk) 02:03, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Keep per WP:BASIC - e.g. A 'way out of a lonely place' (Baltimore Sun, 2006) is in-depth coverage focused on her and her writing; Shops to showcase items from people The Arc serves (The Frederic News-Post, 2015) has a focus on her collective work; Paul and his Beast (Kirkus Reviews, 2015); Meet Sarah Stup: Author with autism who has much to say about inclusion (Chapman University, 2017, an interview with context), and in the available preview of Disability and the Good Human Life (2013), her writing is quoted at 228; the preceding page that appears to have more content is not available, while the GBooks preview says "… Sarah Stup began using supported typing in 1991 at the age of eight. In response to a lecture in a high school science class about genetic issues and fetal testing for Williams syndrome …". At the WP Library, via EBSCOhost, there is Exceptional Parent. Oct2008, Vol. 38 Issue 10, p24-26. 3p. (abstract: "The article describes how a young woman with disability has paved a way for herself as a poet, essayist, children's author and advocate. Sarah Stup has made a choice to forgo traditional employment options for people with disabilities and to pursue the seemingly improbable option of becoming an author. It discusses the impact of autism on Sarah's ability to control her body." - full text is available; the author is affiliated with ARC). Beccaynr ( talk) 18:06, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

Promotional article about quite new church with no claim to notability. All references in the article are the church itself, and my BEFORE search found nothing but minor routine coverage that would exist for any church. Speedy and PROD contested without addressing any of these issues Mojo Hand ( talk) 00:30, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete, there are hundreds of Hope Churches across Canada and the USA, I can't find anything for this particular one. One of many I think, nothing for GNG. Oaktree b ( talk) 00:59, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete as one reliable secondary source does not an article make. — Fourthords | =Λ= | 01:14, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Very generic church with a very generic name which is under many different denominations. I do think this title should go somewhere or become an overall DAB for things with the 'Hope Church' title. Nate • ( chatter) 01:22, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Does not pass WP:NCHURCH. Hmee2 ( talk) 12:06, 12 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - Non-primary sources only affirm the subject's existence, which does not indicate notability. The ⬡ Bestagon  T/ C 15:49, 15 January 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Comment -- an unexceptional local church. The only thing that might be unusual is the retail element, but I doubt that is sufficient to make it notable. If kept, rename to Hope Church, Richmond or such like. Peterkingiron ( talk) 19:19, 15 January 2023 (UTC) reply
