Bully and the Beast[edit]

Redirect to Orson Scott Card bibliography. The Bully and the Beast article is almost entirely boilerplate; the only fact that it has that the bibliography article doesn't already have is "based on the short story 'The Bully and the Beast'". That single fact doesn't warrant an article of its own, so add it to the "notes" line item in Orson Scott Card bibliography. -- Finlay McWalterᚠTalk 11:32, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per Finlay McWalter's concerns. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 23:59, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Mark Peel (chef)[edit]

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

Only a single ref and that appears to be a dead-link. Fails WP:GNG totally. Nothing about the text suggests that notability will be easy to demonstrate. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 23:50, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Peel is a highly notable chef. Google shows 116 references in The New York Times alone including [1]. This article needs work, not deletion. --Arxiloxos (talk) 01:32, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep In addition to the New York Times coverage, he is discussed extensively in a book called Super Chef: The Making of the Great Modern Restaurant Empires. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 03:43, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep. He's notable, even if the article needs more citations. There are plenty out there. Maybe you could add some. I'll add one now. Bangabandhu (talk) 00:53, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete @Donaldo Rivera: Wikipedia has a looonnnggg page describing the criteria for articles about individual books: Wikipedia:Notability_(books) -- probably more than anyone needs to know, but you can take a look at WP:BKCRIT which is a short list that defines the "bottom line." Bottom line is that this book has a long way to go before meeting any of those criteria. Also, since you are the author of the book in question, you should also look at Wikipedia's conflict of interest policy. It's generally not appropriate to write about yourself or your own products. However, I would bet that there are a lot of articles here that could use some help from someone well-versed in anthropology, so I hope you stick around and join us in making this a better encyclopedia. LaMona (talk) 03:59, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I object deletion via PROD. According to guidelines a single editor's objection to PROD prevents the article from being deleted via PROD and leads to a potential AfD.
- Indexing: There is no reason for this article to be suggested to be irrelevant. Keep in mind that is still a stub: There was not yet a section on indexing. I have just added it. Also, different to the claims of the editor who suggested the deletion request, of course the journal is already indexed. Like with any journal that is only a year old it is not yet listed in the impact factor lists of ISI and Scopus, but it is already e.g. in the Science Scitation index and as such pending for addition to the scitation index itself.
- Regarding the publisher: OSA is a respectable and the most important and a community-driven, non-profit publisher for international scientific publications in the field of optics. This is proven by numbers of articles and scitations. It has clearly devoted a full editorial office and board for this journal which it has made clear and is campaigning for as their primary journal of high-quality optics. The journal is clearly backed by the scientific community as is shown by the list of editors across the most important institutions in optics around the world. All these fact are clearly visible from the references of the article.
- The number of scitations to the articles in this journal within the first year, according to the ISI Web of Knowledge Index are very relevant.
- Disclaimer: I am in no way financially connected to OSA, the journal or any competing journal and I have no publication interests in this journal. My interests lie in the quality of this article and the quality of the wikipedia in the field of optics. --Akriesch (talk) 16:52, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

To clarify, the proposed deletion has already been dismissed. The proposer then escalated by starting this new process — Articles for Deletion. This new process is decided by consensus but it doesn't seem that there's consensus support for deletion by this method either. Andrew D. (talk) 17:49, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Most of the above reasons for keeping the article are irrelevant (publisher, editor, editorial board, authors: WP:NOTINHERITED). However, the indexing in the Science Citation Index Expanded, unlikely as it is for a journal this young, does check out and makes the journal meet WP:NJournals. As there are other good faith !votes recommending redirecting the article, I cannot withdraw the nom, but I change my !vote to keep. As for BEFORE: I checked GScholar, but because of the general journal name that was not very helpful. I did not think of checking Thomson Reuters, given the young age of the journal. Clearly I was wrong about that. As defense I can only say that journal articles that start listing trivia (like number of articles published, or how notable the authors/board/whatever are) are usually a sure sign that the journal in question is not notable yet. --Randykitty (talk) 12:30, 25 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Katherine Mangu-Ward[edit]

I do not believe that being the managing editor of a relatively small magazine means automatic notability. While the internetz prove she has written many things in different venues, I did not find secondary sourcing that discusses her in any detail. Drmies (talk) 17:08, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Yeah, meh, I cleaned up the article as best I could, but it seems like I could only find pretty trivial mentions. This [2] is the best source I found, but it's bloggish and still not super notable. As a point of curiosity, do our deletion guidelines contain any guidance on if a journalist or writer's own publications ever make them notable? I think Mangu-Ward is an interesting case of someone who has been widely published (not just in Reason), but who has not been the subject of much secondary coverage. Thanks.

I believe this article to be highly inaccurate of the reality on the ground in Syria, having viewed the sources for map changes it seems they are based on word of mouth from unknown Twitter users while changes being broadcast in internationally recognised media outlets are ignored, one example of the inaccurate bias on this page is the reliance on the source of SAHR/SOHR which is a man living in a council flat in London with ties to Jihadist terror networks in Britain, who is currently under investigation by the British police. Sohr reported false claims and continues to do so on false advances and use of chemical weapons on civilians which was actually the "rebels" (Saudi/Qatari/Lybian terrorists). False reports of Government use of chemical weapons, and false reports on "rebels" (Foreign Whabbi Terrorists) advances. I will continue to seek this pages deletion as there is now a more accurate and up to date page with information correct as of June 2015, as we see on this page some information has not been changed since 2011, again total bias mostly in the "Rebels" areas that were lost years ago. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SyrianObserver2015 (talk • contribs) 10:55, 23 July 2015‎ (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep Any incorrect/poorly sourced information should be corrected/deleted, if it can be shown to be such. Most of the article appears to be correct, and deletion would be throwing out the baby with the bathwater. This article also features the most regularly updated map (in the form of the template) available. Banak (talk) 19:45, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep I have no particular love, or even sympathy, for pro-rebel SOHR, but shouldn't this article (and the corresponding template here) just be fixed with better sources instead? A lot of those city history texts are horribly out-of-date too. I would like to point out that I remember at least one other attempt to delete this map (as a template) for other reasons: Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2014 February 28#Template:Syrian civil war detailed map. Conversion to an article was an interesting proposal back then, but since we have both the article and the template now, it does not matter anymore. Unless there is some doubt on whether or not we need to keep them as separate pages. I support renaming, as proposed by Clarityfiend. Ceosad (talk) 20:49, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep per Jackmcbarn and Ceosad. Cleanup rather than delete. It appears from the wording of this nomination that while SOHR may be biased, the nominator may also be biased. I also think we need to be careful of SPAs in this discussion. Happy to support a rename to a clearer title. Would be interested to hear what the other article mentioned by the nominator is, and whether the two need to be merged in line with WP:POVFORK. Buckshot06 (talk) 23:11, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep I keep track of this map because it is the most up to date and usually, most unbiased. Any bias is normally removed because of the dedicated following and editors this article has. I know this article has had problems in the past but problems can always be fixed. Alastairjc (talk) 10:29, 25 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep My perception of SOHR as a source of information is that even though they are pro-rebel/anti-regime/anti-IS, they endeavour to honestly report on the progress of the war. Such a task will invariably suffer from the occasional error, but there is no evidence that SOHR is deliberately misrepresenting the facts on the ground. For this reason, SOHR is viewed by various news media as a reputable and reliable source of information, and is widely quoted in news reports. No one has a monopoly on the news. I suggest that anyone who establishes a reputation for credible reporting should be used as a source of information for this page regardless of what media (twitter, etc) they employ. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nnnabuihe (talk • contribs) 15:50, 26 July 2015‎ (UTC)[reply]

Comment As I understand it, the nominator is not asking for the map to be deleted, but the list of information about the status of various cities/towns. My main problem with the article as it currently stands is: 1) Including that huge map in it is redundant - a prominent wikilink to Template:Syrian_Civil_War_detailed_map at the top would suffice. The inclusion of the big map makes the article take too long to load and choppy to scroll around in (I imagine it's even worse for those with bad internet connections). 2) A lot of info is likely out of date as the nominator says, because the map generally gets more attention. Nevertheless, this is a useful list of more detailed info, with links to relevant maps. Since the big map itself lacks this feature (you can't click on most cities/towns to see more information about their status), this article still has a use, despite parts of it being outdated. Esn (talk) 07:44, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Anyway, my vote is to Keep the article, but replace the big map at the top with a prominent link to it instead. Something like "For a detailed map of the current situation in Syria, see Template:Syrian Civil War detailed map". This would also help with useability. Clicking on a city name when I'm on the map page currently brings me to detailed info about that city on this page (if there is any), but because this page transcludes that map, it takes a very long time to load and is inconvenient. I think making this page quicker to load would encourage greater use of it, and could lead to faster corrections of any errors. Esn (talk) 09:17, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Issues with actual inaccuracy/unsuitable sources ("biased" does not automatically imply "false" or "unreliable" - the talk page has a better guidance as to which sources can be used) are for the talk page, not AfD. Now having the map be slightly smaller would be desirable but not an AfD concern either. I don't think this is a newspaper-like article, just a regular article that is frequently updated.

Strong Keep Despite the claims made by some, and the occasional issues with accuracy, the map is for the most part a very accurate representation of front lines and which sides control what.

Strong Keep Its the best Wikipedia Template map made, and its used widely outside WP. Note why so many Anons want to delete it. Its fair enought to keep it. It can be improved. But we should be more meticously with the sources. Despite SOHR being used as a RS by Western Media it canot be trusted as a 100% reliable source. I agree with User SyrianObserver2015, the guy with the Flat in UK, have some links with Islamic Rebel Groups.

- Much of what you say has nothing to do with this deletion discussion. As for "the best template map", I clicked on the article two minutes ago. It just loaded, having crashed Firefox once. It looks awful, being about four times as wide as my screen, and scrolling is well-nigh impossible. The legend is overcomplicated, there are blinking gifs, I can't figure out what's what. There seems to be some sort of floating image in the center of the map; I don't know what it is. How is this map good? And that's not even taking into account the matter of sourcing, which is not up to snuff with WP:RS. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drmies (talk • contribs) 23:41, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ken Melamed[edit]

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

WP:BLP of a person notable primarily as the mayor of a town not large enough (9K) to automatically confer notability on its mayors, and as an as-yet-unelected candidate in a future federal election — but neither of these are claims that pass WP:NPOL. While there is a bit of stuff here about the town's role as a junior partner in some of the 2010 Winter Olympics events, that just makes him a WP:BLP1E. Of the eight sources being cited here, further, fully half of them are primary sources like his own federal campaign website, the city's website or the Federation of Canadian Municipalities — and of the four that are left, two of those just passingly namecheck his existence in the process of failing to be about him. So there's not enough reliable sourcing, substantively about him, to claim WP:GNG instead. I'm certainly willing to withdraw this if he can be sourced a lot better than this, and he'll certainly qualify for an article if he wins the federal election in October — but an unelected candidate for office only qualifies for a Wikipedia article if you can make a credible and properly sourced case that he was already notable enough for an article before he became a candidate, and there's not enough substance or sourcing here to put him in that camp. Also conflict of interest, as the article was created by Melamed's deputy campaign manager. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 16:33, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~Neutral~~. Not notable for federal candidacy or Olympic negotiations. Question is: Is Whistler a "cit[y] of at least regional prominence" (quote-unquote)? If it is, then being mayor of said prominent resort municipality would satisfy NPOL, barely. This article should be a lot more neutral-worded, though. FUNgus guy (talk) 05:40, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The basic standard that's applied at AFD is generally that the place has a population of close to or above 50K. That's not a hard and fast rule, because it can be swayed "smaller in" or "larger out" if there's a compelling reason for such an exception (such as a smalltown mayor being unusually sourceable as more GNG-worthy than the city's population would suggest, or a large city's mayoralty being a ceremonial post that just rotates annually among city councillors rather than being directly elected), but consensus has established 50K as the base standard for whether the city has the level of "regional prominence" needed to be automatically eligible for inclusion on the mayoral criterion itself. Anything smaller than that needs to be either much better sourced than this is, or have a consensus established that the city qualifies as a "special case" for some reason. Bearcat (talk) 16:15, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, thank you Bearcat. So "prominent" city is generally 50K+ with a few exceptions. Does Whistler qualify as an exceptional case? I checked a comparable city, Mont-Tremblant, Quebec, which also has world-famous skiing and a permanent population of ~9K. I could not find one article about one of their mayors. Clearly Mont-Tremblant is not considered "regionally prominent", and therefore neither is Whistler. So, with this new information, I change my vote to Delete.

Keep it Whistler is a city known around the world and is one of the premier tourism destinations in North America. A community it is certainly much more notable than many cities much larger. Also, it is one of the few cities to host any part of the Olympics or Paralympics. Yes, it was not the formal host of the 2010 Winter Olympics but it was the host of the 2010 Winter Paralympics which were by far the most successful paralympics to date. Ken Melamed was mayor for that event and on the international stage because of it bern99 (talk)

Keep it Hi all. Thanks for this excellent feedback. This is my first article and I'm determined to make sure it's accurate and unbiased. I'd say Whistler is definitely a city of regional importance despite the AFD guideline regarding population. Even though there are only 9,500 permanent residents in Whistler, there are over 2.1 million overnight visitors every year. As a world-renowned tourist destination, it is not only of regional importance but of provincial and national importance. ^[1].

Shooting of Danny Gonen[edit]

Nom has clearly failed to perform WP:BEFORE, I am a major fan of WP:BEFORE. Editors who perform due diligence as per WP:BEFORE are unlikely to nominate articles that, like this one, cover a topic that received in-depth media coverage, is well-sourced, and is part of a routine Wikipedia practice of having articles that cover episodes of terrorism; recent examples of this policy include 2015 Chattanooga shootings (the article on which I modeled this article and title), and 2015 Boston beheading plot.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:20, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As per WP:GNG the most important of the several policies that distinguish notable events from routine news and events. WP:GNG reads: "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article." I point you to in-depth articles on this terror murder in the New York Times, The Daily Telegraph, Haaretz, and elsewhere. I remind editors raising WP:NOTNEWS that WP is WP:NOTCENSORED and WP:BATTLEGROUND, and that WP:JUSTDONTLIKEIT is not a policy based argument. An event with this breadth and depth of coverage does not have to demonstrate ongoing impact to be WP notable. Under WP:EVENTCRIT an event has to meet WP:INDEPTH, which this event objectively does. Nevertheless, this shooting has had demonstrable impact (in article since the creation) on the Israeli conversation about whether to agree to a prisoner exchange that Hamas is requesting this summer (for the bodies of soldiers, or for the return of a mentally ill Israelis who crossed the border into Gaza). It is argued that since this was one of 6 recent terror murders carried out by convicted terrorists released in the Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange, a fresh exchange endangers the lives of Israelis and is, therefore, bad policy.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:24, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article under debate was kept. From this and other recent AFDs I see that there has been a trend to keep shooting attacks as WP:NOTABLE.

There is, of course, also a clear tradition of keeping ideologically motivated terror attacks as notable.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:53, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about a killing where 1 person was killed, 1 wounded.

How many fatal shootings are there in Chicago every year? Several hundred, I believe. We do not have an article on each of those.

Oh, you also don't have to be a genius to look at the datelines and see that coverage of this thing continues, or to realize that since they caught the guys who did it there will be a trial(s) and lots more coverage, and more debate about giving get-out-of-jail-free cards to terrorist scumbags KEEP.SummerSchool55 (talk) 15:10, 27 July 2015 (UTC) — SummerSchool55 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

The article is completely unreferenced and consists of listcruft: the listed terms are just words from Greek mythology (e.g. "Ambrosia", "Oracle") and/or phrases from Percy Jackson & the Olympians. Any notable Greek phrases already have their own articles; any Percy Jackson subject-specific terms should be defined in context (e.g. explained within a plot summary). There is no need for this list - which has been tagged for over 2 years with "The topic of this article may not meet Wikipedia's notability guideline for stand-alone lists" - to exist. — Bilorv_(talk)^(c)(e) 15:28, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I do not pass judgment; I only want to describe what I have seen.

The list currently does not cite any sources, though it could easily cite the book series it refers to. It might be hard to find non-primary and/or objective sources.
It is a useful resource within the scope of its subject; i.e. several other articles in its category refer to this list, and use it as a way to keep individual plot summaries and other such descriptions short (by collecting oft-used information elsewhere).
Outside of its subject, it provides a quick way for internet users to find a definition of a term which has a meaning by itself, but is often used differently in the Percy Jackson & the Olympians universe. To people who have no interest whatsoever in Percy Jackson & the Olympians and have never encountered one of these terms somewhere like on a fan-site, it is not useful.

In short, this list is useful to a reasonable number of people and fairly extensive, but it is difficult to determine if it meets 100% of Wikipedia's notability and "encyclopedic" requirements for list-type articles.2ReinreB2 (talk) 17:45, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Utility is not a valid factor when determining whether a topic is suitable for inclusion within Wikipedia. If it's useful, maybe it could find a place on Riordan Wiki (with relevant attribution). Yes, primary sources could be used in the article but that doesn't establish notability. — Bilorv_(talk)^(c)(e) 18:18, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Percy Jackson series is not Rick Riordan's entire body of work; he's also written other mythological YA series and books aimed at adults. This list would be for fans of the Percy Jackson books only, of whom there are many, which I think would justify keeping this page. If sourcing is an issue, wouldn't adding references take care of that? Methychroma (talk) 18:33, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Notability isn't inherited; just because Riordan's works are notable does not mean this page is. Adding references (reliable independent secondary references) certainly would help; can you find any? — Bilorv_(talk)^(c)(e) 18:37, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- What exactly do you mean by "independent secondary references"? Methychroma (talk) 04:48, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I mean sources that are not related to Rick Riordan or his publishers. For instance, a book review that provides substantial description of how terminology is used in the series, and explains why it is such a crucial part of Percy Jackson, would be an independent secondary source. A dictionary with terms from the series on Riordan's website would not be. But I highly doubt anything like this exists in the first place; hence my nomination for deletion. — Bilorv_(talk)^(c)(e) 09:57, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Wikipedia rarely has lists of terms or items used in a series. Characters are fine, but not terms and items. The only exceptions would be in situations where these terms or items have received coverage in independent and reliable sources. Primary sources and passing mentions in book reviews are not good enough. This is essentially WP:LISTCRUFT when you get down to it and things that as stated, would only be of interest for fans. Because of this, this is something that would be best suited for a fan wiki. If anyone wants to transwiki this to an appropriate wiki (like the Riordan wikia), feel free. However as far as Wikipedia goes, this isn't really something that would qualify list-wise. I'd go as far as to say that very, very few series (book, film, etc) would actually merit this type of page. I can't find anything that would really show that these terms/items are notable. There are plenty of primary sources and fan pages, but nothing that would really be considered reliable. Also, in case anyone tries to go gain people from other sites, be aware that AfD is not decided on a vote and unless any of the Percy Jackson fans made arguments based in policy, their input wouldn't really help keep the page in the slightest. Because this has been mentioned, I'm going to tag this AfD with "not a vote". Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 20:09, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

But the point is that utility is irrelevant.

Delete Some reliable sources do exist. There was some coverage in the Herald when the property went on sale in July 1998 A lochside Trossachs treasure It was also a mentioned in a list of "venues with a difference" in the Scotsman in December 2009- VisitScotland says come here for Hogmanay – then escape the crowds. It is a historic building, but not enough to demonstrate notability in my estimation. Interesting to see that when the article was created in 2007, someone had used the template for a village, which it clearly is not.

Gail DeLano[edit]

Biography of a person whose only discernible claim of notability is "got covered in an episode of a reality show", and whose only sourcing is a single article in her local newspaper. Was nominated for speedy, but got declined — but the creator is making claims of significance on the talk page like "we should take interest in the psychological aspect her case, due to the astonishing amount of time and effort it must have taken her to disappear off the face of the earth, and what she must have been feeling in order to go through with it." Except that's got nothing to do with Wikipedia's inclusion standards — if enough reliable sources haven't deemed her "interesting" to earn her a Wikipedia article the normal and verifiable way, then it's not our job to deem her "interesting" for any reason that would involve engaging in original research speculation.

The result was delete. The club has not achieved notability per WP:NFOOTY or WP:GNG. Accordingly, the subject is not worthy of an article until/unless (1) it is promoted (significantly) higher up the football ladder, (2) it has some other football achievement to make it a notable club, or (3) it does something to cause it to garner enough significant, substantial coverage to make it notable. Accordingly, I am striking it from article mainspace. However, I am moving the content to the original editor's user space at User:Stu9891/Addlestone United FC to allow him to continue to develop the article or to salvage some of the content to other articles as mentioned in the discussion. —C.Fred (talk) 14:59, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Addlestone United F.C[edit]

Update - since I opened the AfD, the article's creator has posted on my talk page "Hi Chris. I have not finished the article on Addlestone F.C, but the club was formed because the original Addlestone and Weybridge F.C, who have played at a high level on the football pyramid, folded.

Keep it - I have a soft spot for newer editors and I think the article should be kept and allowed to be expanded upon, not only is the article not hurting anything, but deleting it would discourage a new editor from further contributing. I approved this page when It was first created because I believe it has potential and other clubs at the same level have their own pages. ~Euphoria42 07:54, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Please see WP:ILIKEIT, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS and WP:NOHARM for guidance on why these arguments are no appropriate for AfD. Other articles may exist on clubs at the same level, but these will be because that club has either played at a higher level historically or have competed in a national competition such as the FA Cup, per the notability consensus at WP:FOOTYN. Fenix down (talk) 08:06, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep it - Please let me keep this page. There are a few clubs who have not played at the level you're stating but I need to start somewhere. It is relevant and local people have asked me to create the page, due to Addlestone F.C folding! I am doing it for good reasons. I reformed the local club as I want to create a link for the community. I already have a ground share with a club from the Combined Counties League. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stu9891 (talk • contribs)

Comment - Please see WP:NOTHOSTING for reasons why creating a link for a local community is not an appropriate argument to keep an article. Fenix down (talk) 08:06, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Club has not played in a national competition per WP:FOOTYN, no indication of significant, reliable coverage of a non-routine basis to satisfy GNG. The club play at level fourteen on the pyramid. Fenix down (talk) 08:06, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep it~~ - Fenix down has just said that the club play at level 14. In any case, no matter what level the club is currently at, the club was formed as Addlestone FC folded. It is a 'phoenix' club and as such can surely link to that club's past playing experience. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stu9891 (talk • contribs)

Please don't !vote more than once. The long-established cut-off point for notability is level 10, the level at which teams are eligible to enter the FA Cup, so 14 would still be far too low. However, double-checking our article on the Guildford and Woking Alliance League reveals that the top division is level 14, so this club actually plays at level 17 -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:16, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Please see WP:NOTINHERITED for reasons as to why being a phoenix club would not automatically confer notability. Fenix down (talk) 08:16, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Plus this club wasn't actually formed until 29 years after AWTFC folded. By no sane definition can it be regarded as a "phoenix" club, it's simply a new club started in the same town where another club played decades earlier...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 14:04, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

COMMENT - I was given the choice by the secretary Bob Dick, who is also Secretary of the Surrey F.A, that I could play in Division 1 or 2. I wanted one more season in Division 3 for experience, but we are well within our rights to play higher!!!! That would put us in level 15 or 16. We could've even put ourselves in the premiership which is level 14. Could you please afford us the courtesy to remain a page and gain the level you are stating? The constitution for this season can still even be changed, but we are intent on playing in Division 3 for one more season. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stu9891 (talk • contribs)

Comment - playing in level 17 or level 14 is irrelevant, wht the club needs to have done is either played in a national competition, such as the FA Cup per WP:FOOTYN or garnered significant, reliable, non-routine coverage to satisfy GNG. Fenix down (talk) 08:35, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
COMMENT - That is not even the reason why the page was requested to be deleted!! There are many, many clubs on Wikipedia who have not played a national cup whatsoever. Especially the FA Cup. I feel this is getting silly now. I have explained why the page should stay and I feel we are drifting from the original dispute. I would like to do more work on this article, so can I please have this case closed? We have played in the Surrey County Cup last season. Information that I want to put on the page!

Comment - Where are these clubs? We are not drifting from the original dispute, this element of the deletion rationale: six levels below that deemed notable by WP:FOOTY is what we are discussing. If the club has not played at this level or not participated in a national cup competition then they need to show significant, reliable, non-routine coverage to satisfy GNG. I kind of feel like I am repeating myself here. Fenix down (talk) 08:51, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I would really like to continue with this and I can assure ChrisTheDude that we will easily play at the level he stated. As mentioned, I could've done so this season. Stu9891

Please read WP:CRYSTAL. You have no way of guaranteeing that your club will "easily" reach level 10 (which in your part of the country would be the Combined Counties League Division One), and even if you could, it would take at an absolute minimum until 2021 to get promoted to that level. We do not keep articles for six or more years on the assumption that the subject will become notable after that time...... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:54, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Tongham FC - Here is just one club I am talking about. I can't be expected to search the whole database, but many more exist. They have NOT played in the FA Cup. Also, We can jump divisions. Depending on the players we have. We have the ground facilities to do so. As I have already said, I was allowed to move higher should I so wish. We already have the capabilities to play Combined Counties Football. We ground share with Hanworth Villa. It's level 9. I just wanted to ensure the short term goals of the club, hence why I have not rushed into playing higher. Having this page is relevant and can help it grow and become successful. Stu9891

Comment - they've played at level 10 before, though again, please see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Please also stop using arguments that go against WP:CRYSTAL. When / if the club ever get to that level then they will be considered notable. Until then, you need to show significant, reliable, non-routine coverage to satisfy GNG.

Stu9891 (talk • contribs)

Comment - I'm not really sure what part of WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS you're not understanding, although if you read the article more closely you will see they have played in the Combined Counties League division 1 which is level 10 as well as having competed in the FA Vase. As you have been repeatedly told, this club is well below the automatic notability threshold regarding the football pyramid. As such, you need to show the club have garnered significant, reliable, non-routine coverage to satisfy GNG. To support your keep vote, can you please indicate where these sources are. By the way AfDs normally continue for at least a week, but often longer if debate continues, they are only closed early if there is an overwhelmingly unanimous decision to keep or delete. Fenix down (talk) 13:08, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Please may you give me some examples then of what I should do/produce in order to satisfy GNG? What would be a good thing you'd look for?Stu9891 (talk • contribs)

Well, there is no set thing, but I would look for articles in newspapers of significant length outlining the history of the club, it's impact on the community, successes, failures and the like. I would be careful of using local news sources, as these are not normally acceptable given their limited readership, though this does not mean you need to show coverage in national media. Additionally, match / transfer reporting and various team lists / results sites are not deemed appropriate as these are considered routine coverage and alsmot never go into a great deal of depth. Fenix down (talk) 13:27, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Also Stu9891, can you please not remove the AfD template from the article, as you did earlier today. The template quite clearly states on it that it must not be removed, and doing so is considered vandalism and could well get you blocked from editing -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:42, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Yeah, no problem. I would just like an end to this. Either way. I just want to create the page. I can't believe people have such a problem, but there you go!! Would sponsors mentioning us on Twitter class as media coverage? I am still a little unsure of how I can satisfy GNG. We haven't been in a newspaper yet. I just would like to know how else I could make it work. As I have said though, I just want to make a very good article and for that I need time. Deleting it isn't going to help. Stu9891 (talk • contribs)
- See WP:GNG for what is needed, especially the bit about significant coverage. Passing mentions on Twitter definitely don't meet the requirements, I'm afraid. We appreciate that you want to make a good article about your club, but unfortunately WP has entry requirements. Just because a good article could be written about something doesn't necessarily get it a free pass into the encyclopedia........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 15:37, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Could I use this article information with another page? Addlestone for example? Could I build info within the page that way? Could I use the article under a different category? Are there any other wiki-type set ups on the internet that could use this article? Stu9891 (talk

Comment - you could do as long as it is properly sourced and relevant. Addlestone I would say is not an appropriate place for much information from this article given the low level that the club currently play at, perhaps a sentence. Addlestone & Weybridge Town F.C. would be more approprite. However, given the fact that there is more than a quarter of a century between the original club folding and this one starting, it is not really correct to describe the new club as in anyway directly linked as a phoenix club, other than by geography. I note there is already a brief comment on the club's existence. Unless other sources can be found explicitly noting a link between the two clubs, I would say this would suffice. I don't know whether they have any specific inclusion criteria, but I would suggest the football wiki on Wikia, as a first port of call. Fenix down (talk) 17:19, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - per nom. There is not indication that the clubs has received sufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG and nor has the club played in a national cup competition, meaning it fails WP:FOOTYN as well. Sir Sputnik (talk) 20:42, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - As it is plain to see there are a lot of people who just want to make life difficult, why don't you just delete it then?? I can't work on the article until I know that it's being kept, so it's catch 22.
I would just like a resolution. Is that too much to ask? Delete it or keep it. Stu9891 (talk — Preceding undated comment added 11:36, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a chef and food writer, with no strong claim to notability under Wikipedia's inclusion rules for either of those things. This is written like one of the most appallingly transparent public relations advertisements I've ever seen on Wikipedia (which is saying a lot), and cites not a whit of reliable sourcing to support so much as one syllable of it — and the level of detail about his personal life is so intimate for the lack of sourcing that conflict of interest editing by the subject himself or someone who knows him personally is virtually the only possible explanation.

Delete. I am not concerned about whether an engagement is called a battle or something else, though I prefer "battle" in most, if not all, cases. The criteria for whether a Civil War action was a battle or something else is very loose. The type of action seems to have been a creation of Frederick Dyer in his 1908 work. Although the location may be the most important fact, I think most readers will look for the Battle of xxxxx and will not be looking for Skirmish at xxxx so I would rather see "Battle" in the title. Most, but not all, Wikipedia articles about Civil War engagements start with "Battle." In any event, skirmishing occurred around Alexandria, Louisiana in the Red River Campaign from about April 25, 1865 to May 13, 1865. Long, E. B. The Civil War Day by Day: An Almanac, 1861–1865. Garden City, NY: Doubleday, 1971. OCLC 68283123 notes this on page 488 while making no mention of the specific engagement on April 28. The same is true of The Union Army; A History of Military Affairs in the Loyal States, 1861–65 — Records of the Regiments in the Union Army — Cyclopedia of Battles — Memoirs of Commanders and Soldiers. Wilmington, NC: Broadfoot Publishing, 1997. First published 1908 by Federal Publishing Company. Vol. 5, p. 25. Of the three sources cited in the article, only one refers to an engagement on April 28 and that involves the Confederates throwing a shell or two at the camp of an Ohio regiment, the regiment forming for battle but nothing happening as the Confederates fell back. Certainly that can not be considered a notable battle of any sort. Meanwhile, a cavalry skirmish was occurring to their front. That much is mentioned by both Dyer and Union Major General Nathaniel P. Banks in his report to General Grant of April 30, 1864, found at [20] in the The war of the rebellion: a compilation of the official records of the Union and Confederate armies; Series 1 - Volume 34 (Part I), page 191. That still does not make it a notable engagement because not much happened between the cavalry units either. Banks said that a Confederate reconnaissance in force on April 28 led to the expectation of a battle but only some sharp skirmishing between advance cavalry units of both armies occurred. Colonel S.G. Hill's report on page 331 confirms that the infantry formed in line of battle but no battle ensued. Dyer, Frederick H. A compendium of the War of the Rebellion. Des Moines, IA: The Dyer Publishing Company, 1908. OCLC 181358316 only gives Union units engaged and casualties. He lists the 2d Illinois Cavalry Regiment, 16th Indiana Infantry Regiment (Mounted) and 6th Missouri Cavalry Regiment as the Union forces engaged and no casualties. That is all these sources report. I could find no specific mention of this skirmish in Winters, John D. The Civil War in Louisiana. Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 1963. ISBN 978-0-8071-0834-5. I would characterize myself an inclusionist with respect to Civil War engagements, at least if anything of significance or even minor interest happened or resulted or if they were part of a larger campaign and several details are given in reliable sources. This is a minor 1864 engagement in which no casualties are reported and nothing much really happened. Its only significance was that it was a minor part of the Red River Campaign phase in which the Union Army was holding Alexandria and keeping the Confederates away from the river for about three weeks so that the stranded Union gunboats could be freed to move downriver. In this event, advance forces took a few shots at each other and retired. It would barely merit a sentence or two in the campaign article, which in fact it does not even have. I conclude that the event, which is barely mentioned in a few sources, is not notable enough for an article, although the skirmishing and the three-week holding action at Alexandria and its purpose should be mentioned in the campaign article.

List of Nazis of non-Germanic descent[edit]

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

Reason First of all: please excuse my poor english. This List is not suitable for an encyclopedia because it is not notable, original research and is not verifiable. First: what may "germanic descent" mean? Germanic tribes moved all over Europe an futher into Africa during the Migration Period. It should be hand to find any European without any germanic descent apart from people who moved here from Asia and sorts. And in Germany on the other Hand there are the Sorbs which are of slawic descent. Even if you take "non-Germanic descent" as "parents not from the state of germany" you get to the Second questionable part: the List of Names seems to be totally random. Silesia for example was part of the german reich these days so people from silesia acutally had "germanic descent". Then Third: the most famous austrian Nazi is missing. You guessed it: Adolf himself. I think there is not use in this random list of names. Weissbier (talk) 10:34, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Addendum: if "non-germanic descent" means that these people have some "non-germanic" ancestors, this means that all Nazis were auf "non-germanic descent". See Recent African origin of modern humans. There more you think of it, the more bullshit this list is. I guess it's only purpose is to relativate things. "Look there were also Nazi-Jews, so the Jews are evil too". Primitive.

Comment. Remember that Austrians are of Germanic descent, so wouldn't count anyway! There is a difference between "German" and "Germanic": in this case the latter is being use to refer to people who are ethnically German, including most people from Germany and Austria as well as Silesian Germans, Baltic Germans, Sudeten Germans, etc (i.e. the people the Nazis referred to as Volksdeutsche). Ethnically German people don't have to be born in Germany and not all people born in Germany are ethnically German, which is what this list is about. I'm neutral as to its notability, but it is a clearly defined list. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:18, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
User:Necrothesp makes a key point. The Nom misunderstands the term, "non-Germanic descent."E.M.Gregory (talk) 23:27, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The nom's reasons for deletion are invalid. First of all, I'm not aware of any notability guidelines for lists, and the nom fails to specify which specific guideline it supposedly violates. It would meet the WP:GNG in my judgment. Secondly and thirdly, original research is not by itself a reason to delete an article, and it could certainly be verifiable if the proper sources were found and cited. I think it could, however, be trimmed to include only more prominent Nazis. So, in summary, is this article messy, disorganized, and filled with original research? Yes. Does it need a lot of work? Yes. Are these reasons to delete this article? No. --Biblioworm 14:37, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Based on the cited books, a list of Nazis with some Jewish ancestry might be notable (and Jewish is easier to define than non-Germanic). However this list as it stands is less specific, and there's no evidence that nazis with some non-Germanic blood forms a notable topic. Colapeninsula (talk) 15:52, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Interesting idea. I might actually like to work on such an article. --Biblioworm 16:32, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- This is a list article. If it were a category, I would want to get rid of it. There are probably several different groups combined here: Nazis wth Jewish connections; Grerman residnets from elsewhere; those who neither lived in Germany nor were ethnic Germans. The subjefct is an intersting one and we should keep it. That is not what I expected to say before I looked at it. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:42, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The concept depends on original research saying this group of people is notable as a group. Note that "non-Germanic descent" is being used to mean that some ancestor of the person was not Germanic, not that he/she had no Germanic ancestors. Kitfoxxe (talk) 21:34, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Any determination to place any individual on this list would have to rely on original research. Certainly, secondary sources might indicate that a notorious Nazi was of part-Jewish descent, or of Polish descent, or of Lithuanian descent, et al. But how is one to make a definite determination that the given individual is of "non-Germanic descent"? Ultimately, it would be up to an individual editor's discretion, which isn't a good way of adding encyclopedic content. North of Eden (talk) 02:50, 26 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This grouping is original research. No indication that there is a scholarly consensus that having some none Germanic ancestry makes these people a definable group.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:59, 26 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I expected to vote to delete. Then I gave the list a careful look. It is carefully crafted, with a deft hand for the nuanced shades of European ethnicity (Odilo Globocnik, Austrian Nazi, Germanised Slavic (Slovene and Czech) descent) and (Erich Kempka,[2] German Nazi, Ruhr Polish descent) The article does not exhibit the simplistic conflations of nationality and ethnicity that some in this discussion have accused it of. I do have a a caveat about sourcing. The two examples that I just mentioned link articles that include brief discussions of the family's ethnic origin. Some (Joachim Mrugowsky) link to articles that lack such discussions. I suggest that all names on this page need to be supported by WP bios that source the ethnic background of the family.E.M.Gregory (talk) 13:42, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- You make a good point, and I agree that the article is full of high-quality research. But even though there is no set notability standard for lists, list notability "is based on the group". I don't think there's any reliable source that articulates a definition or analysis of the relevant topic, "Nazis of non-Germanic descent". North of Eden (talk) 01:13, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep See Nazism and race, Nuremberg Laws, Aryan certificate etc. This lists people of dubious Aryanness, who would otherwise be unelligible for citizenship, party membership, military ranks, political offices, etc. Very interesting detail of Nazi history.--Zoupan 18:23, 29 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
