Tricia McCauley[edit]

Totally fails WP:GNG. Her acting career is comprised of un-notable short films and being a stand in on Step Up. Her murder really isn't especially notable either. If that's not the case, I'd move the article to "Death of Tricia McCauley", as she herself is not notable. Rusted AutoParts 23:08, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Two short films and a stand-in for a lead actress maketh one not notable, per listing at IMDb, despite her resumé at her website. As for her death news, tragic and a miscarriage in justice yes, notably encyclopedic no. — Wyliepedia 02:32, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wait: While she herself is not notable, the nature of her murder could make it notable pending future developments in the news. I'd support renaming article to "Death of Tricia McCauley" in the meantime. 70.51.82.112 (talk) 04:40, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disagree respectfully -- No sense in renaming if we don't know yet if "the nature of her murder could make it notable pending future developments in the news". Not every murder victim is notable, as we all know. I do support waiting a while to see what turns up but I will support deletion, tragic as McCauley's death is, if, in their entirety, the circumstances of her life and death do not confer notability. Quis separabit? 06:14, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    With all due respect even Death of Tricia McCauley may not be warranted. Quis separabit? 04:36, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable actor. Fails WP:ENT. Should probably have been Speedy, but a misinformed editor removed CSD because the individual had been in some notable films in minor roles. reddogsix (talk) 22:35, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge as above, unless some third-party sources can be identified. Josh Milburn (talk) 22:15, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge. Bane is one of the major Forgotten Realms gods and an antagonist in multiple forms of media, including tabletop adventures, video games, and novels. Despite this, I'm having some trouble finding significant coverage. There were a few promising sources on Google Books, but I either couldn't access them or they turn out to be trivial mentions. For example, he's mentioned in this book, but it's tough to tell if it's a trivial mention; it looks like it probably is. I was all set to vote to keep, but there doesn't seem to be enough stuff digitally archived for me to back up my vote. If someone finds offline sources that are independent of TSR/Wizards/Mattel, we can see about recreating the page. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 04:29, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to List of Forgotten Realms deities per above. Like, NinjaRobotPirate, I'm actually moderately surprised there is so little out there on him, as, unlike the myriad of other Forgotten Realms gods, he is actually a major villain in the D&D universe. But, since there does not seem to be many substantial non-primary sources out there, I'm going to have to go with Merge. 64.183.45.226 (talk) 19:29, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A web search shows no evidence of anything with her as the focus - which shows that notability can't be esablish and should be deleted. I consider the sources online and identified in the article to be trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources as they only mention her and and she is not the focus.

Article PRODded with reason " Non-notable, relatively new journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." Article dePRODded by article creator, who added a phrase that the journal is indexed in the Web of Science. Wos is not an indexing service, but an access platform. In fact, this journal is indexed by the Emerging Sources Citation Index, a rather non-selective database that even contains several predatory journals (of course, I'm not saying this journal is predatory, this is just to indicate that the ESCI is not selective in the sense of WP:NJournals. PROD reason therefore still stands, article creation premature. Hence: delete. Randykitty (talk) 20:26, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This looks like a solid journal from a respected publisher, but it is too new for independent reliable sources or to be included in selective indices. Without such reliable sources, the topic currently fails WP:GNG and WP:NJournals thresholds. I expect this will eventually become notable, as with its sister publication APL Materials, but right now it is WP:TOOSOON. Hence delete, with no prejudice to re-creation when reliable sources become available. --Mark viking (talk) 21:22, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Any journal published by AIP is ex officio notable. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:25, 29 December 2016 (UTC).[reply]
  • Comment Even solid publishers occasionally have the occasional dud. As of now, we don't know yet whether this journal is going to make it or not. And I think that ex officio definitely goes against WP:INHERITED... --Randykitty (talk) 22:46, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete per WP:TOOSOON. Fails GNG and NJournal at this point in time. Jytdog (talk) 09:33, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This journal is indexed in The Emerging Sources Citation Index ("Master Journal List". Intellectual Property and Science. Thomson Reuters. Retrieved 3 January 2017.) and The Directory of Open Access Journals ("Directory of Open Access Journals". APL Photonics. Directory of Open Access Journals. Retrieved 3 January 2017.).Physicsfan2015 (talk) 14:36, 3 January 2017 (UTC)Physicsfan2015 (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
  • Comment: neither of those two indexes is selective in the sense of WP:NJournals. The ESCI is so permissive, that it even contains known predatory journals. DOAJ strives to include every OA journal, regardless of its importance or influence. So this still is no evidence of passing NJournals or GNG. --Randykitty (talk) 15:01, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. As a new journal from a reputable publisher, this seems likely to be notable eventually, but I think it's WP:TOOSOON, and the article doesn't actually present any evidence that it's notable already. Nor does it present any informative content that couldn't be obtained directly from the journal's home page. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:58, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Randykitty. This fails WP:NJOURNALS, likely a case of WP:TOOSOON. No objection to recreation if/when this becomes notable. This could alternatively be merged at American Institute of Physics though. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 21:58, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Trumpublican[edit]

Trumpublican (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is a poorly written article with unverified POV claims whose subject is a non-notable neologism which has hardly ever been used. It might meet criteria for more speedy or uncontroversial deletion given all these problems but I am not sure. So just in case any fellow editors want to keep this article instead of deleting it, I decided to do the AfD process so that the English Wikipedia community could decide whether to delete it, keep it, merge it, redirect it, or something else.

Personally I, the one nominating it, want it deleted for all the reasons given in the first sentence. I do not feel that improving the article would be worth it, since even if it is made NPOV and all unverified claims are removed and it is better written, it will still be an article about a non-notable neologism which has hardly ever been used, so fixing the article would be a waste of time in my opinion as even if it is fixed it is still about a non-notable neologism. "Trumpocrat" was also copyrighted by Donald Trump at the same time as "Trumpublican" and has far more hits in search engines than "Trumpublican", but there is no "Trumpocrat" article, nor should there be, and "Trumpublican" is even less notable than "Trumpocrat". Hardly anyone uses either of those neologisms and if we had a Wikipedia article for every neologism that a notable person in politics copyrighted it would be a very long list of very short articles that would have to be created. Other people please feel free to state what you want done with this article (keep, delete, redirect, merge, etc.) below and give reasons why. But as far as this particular neologism goes, being copyrighted, then mentioned once on an obscure blog and then once by a columnist at a single newspaper does not make something particularly notable, especially not if it is a neologism.

Anyway personally along with being fine with a delete, I would also be fine with having this be a redirect to some portion of the Donald Trump article about his supporters or some other article about Donald Trump supporters if anyone can come up with something for this to redirect to. I would not want to merge this with any other article, because there is not any quality content in this article worth putting into any other article. Yetisyny (talk) 06:34, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per WP:NEOLOGISM or WP:WORDISSUBJECT. All that can be inferred from the sources in the article is that the term is an abandoned trademark by Donald Trump. No evidence is presented in the article to confirm that "a member of the Republican Party who advocates for a small, fiscally conservative, republican government" is indeed most often termed a Trumpublican. I find that quite unlikely given that dozens of millions of people voted for Trump, yet the term gets only 8,660 Google hits, so I'd call this a neologism that hasn't taken off yet. If we instead treat the term itself as the subject of the article, it again fails per WP:WORDISSUBJECT, as it has little possibility to grow far beyond the one sentence in the article that concerns the word itself.

  • Consensus for deletion? I originally put this article into the AfD (articles for deletion) process and my comment is the one at the top recommending deletion. The 2 comments since then by Daß Wölf and Yoshiman6464 both are ones I entirely agree with which also call for deletion for very similar reasons. Nobody has argued for keeping this article or cited any Wikipedia policies that would justify keeping it, so it seems there is probably a consensus among editors to delete this article.

    And as defined in the article, the article lists a number of policy views "Trumpublicans" allegedly have, which are the exact same policy views the majority of mainstream Republicans would probably agree with both now and for the last few decades, and arguably the article is just about Republicans in general and not supporters of Donald Trump. It links to the "issues" page of Donald Trump's campaign website which only has 2 issues on it, immigration and ending ObamaCare, neither of which is among the issues listed in this article as one "Trumpublicans" care about. Basically none of the citations in the article are done accurately, to have the article reflect the contents of the sources that are being cited.

    This neologism is largely unused (unlike, say, "post-truth" or "alt-right" which are indeed notable political terms that gained widespread usage in 2016) and does not seem to meet the guidelines for general notability on Wikipedia, which specifically have as grounds for exclusion neologisms that are not in widespread usage. Also the small number of comments reflects a lack of interest in this article because it is such a little-used neologism and article almost nobody looks at, thus underscoring its lack of general notability. --Yetisyny (talk) 15:29, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: After reading the article and going through references online, I'm of the opinion that he slightly passes "a" notability criteria, the only problem is I don't know which criteria he passes and I'm not patient enough to locate the criteria. He has held a few positions that are worthy to be looked into and there is a short Blomberg biography on him. He also offered to sponsor the Olympic National team of Nigeria. The main reason why I'm commenting is that I don't like seeing an Nigerian AFD post without any input. Darreg (talk) 20:32, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

None of the information i've found online supports any notability of the record label itself. It has some large artists signed but notability is not inherited. I'd say this fails WP:GNG. -- Dane talk 00:41, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - I easily found sources for this label, not surprising given the large number of notable artists that have been signed to this label. Correct, notability is not inherited, but a record label becomes notable by the notable artistic output it releases, and its impact upon culture, and this is best represented by number of notable artists and length of operating history. This topic meets WP:GNG (see article talk page, I found some sources that can be used, but I didn't look very hard), and is a notable record label, GNG aside. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 16:19, 20 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Per nom. Regarding the 'keep or merge' vote above, we cannot presume that this object will eventually become notable at some point in the indefinite future. If this were the standard, we would have hundreds of millions of stubs about nearly every known astronomical object, merely duplicating basic information from astronomical catalogues (see WP:NOT). This is exactly why the notability criteria of WP:NASTRO exist, and I concur with the nominator's application of that policy to this object. It (1) is not visible to the unaided eye and has never been so, (2) is not in a catalogue of interest to amateur astronomers or a catalogue of historical interest, (3) has not been the subject of in-depth attention in reliable secondary sources, and (4) was discovered after 1850. Thus, it fails WP:NASTRO. Astro4686 (talk) 07:24, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Relist following a no consensus because no participation closure on the first nomination -- but this is still an improperly sourced article about a radio program. This one is syndicated, so it would pass WP:NMEDIA if it were properly referenced to reliable source coverage -- but of the 44 "references" here, fully 75 per cent of them are the primary source webpages of stations that carry the show (which are not sources that can confer notability by themselves, because they're not independent of the subject) and nearly all of the others are press releases and WP:BLOGS. There's just one source here that qualifies as actual media coverage, and it's a blurb which isn't about this show, but simply verifies a tangential fact about a charity event the hosts are involved in while not actually naming the hosts in conjunction with it at all -- which means it doesn't contribute notability either, and even if it did one source isn't enough to pass WP:GNG by itself. No prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can source it properly, but it's not entitled to keep an article just because it exists, if the article is sourced like this.

This article was contributed in good faith as part of an educational assignment but the topic seems to have been selected carelessly. Biological ornaments are a notable topic, but we already have an article on them, I can't find any evidence that female ornamentation is considered a distinctly notable concept in evolutionary biology, and the existing article isn't long enough to justify a content fork. Moreover, for the most part the article isn't actually about sexual ornaments. It has some essay-like background on sexual selection theory and ornamentation, but is effectively a rewrite of physical attractiveness in evolutionary psychology's peculiar "let's pretend human behaviour is no different to lemurs'" style. There's also an overreliance on primary literature and OR issues throughout. I did suggest that some of the content might be salvaged and merged into other articles, but the discussion on the talk page has gone stale and it's been suggested WP:TNT might be a better route. – Joe (talk) 18:43, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Faithless electors in the United States presidential election, 2016. TimothyJosephWood 19:26, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - extensive coverage of her as an individual. BLP1E should be considered, but I think the coverage is significant enough and continuous enough to justify her inclusion. This isn't just a marginal event, and there is enough content to write a short biography about Guerra. There also is continued coverage of the legal case involving her and the other Washington faithless electors.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 19:29, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • I don't see "extensive" coverage anywhere. I see more coverage of her than some of the other faithless electors, but nothing that supersedes BLP1E. Her role in the 2016 election is marginal. It changed nothing. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:32, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • It does seems a lot like a marginal event: a protest vote of no consequence other than a $1,000 fine. Searching for her gets quite a few results, but searching for news with "Levi Guerra" -elector -electors literally eliminates all English language sources. TimothyJosephWood 20:00, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I will take back the adjective "extensive" - the coverage isn't extensive, but it is significant. Most sources discuss Guerra only within the context of being a faithless elector, with barely any biographical information. However, I was thinking of this article, which has some enough information to add reliable biographical information about Guerra. For me, that is the threshold for inclusion - if there is enough reliable coverage to create a short biography, outside of the immediate reasons for why the subject is notable. I stand by my keep vote, whether the community decides to accept it or not.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 23:18, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Further comment: What constitutes a single event? Guerra has received media coverage since November, and coverage since her vote due to the legal case.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 15:20, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but she doesn't seem to have received any coverage whatsoever not directly related to this one event. The event itself is of somewhat dubious political importance (i.e., it had little to no chance of changing the results), and her vote wasn't even geared toward changing the result (i.e., she wasn't a pledged elector of Trump who switched to Clinton), but was entirely and completely a protest write in of a moderate (Powell) who wasn't even running for president, and by an elector pledged to Clinton in the first place. By her own admission she is only 19 and this is my first time being involved in politics. Not only that, but she isn't the focal point of the story, because the story is not a single Hamilton Elector, but part of seven (eight counting one who resigned). That's the real story.
Maybe this is the start of a blossoming political career once she...you know...at least finishes up her sophomore year in college, and if that is the case an article may be appropriate. But there is currently no indication that this BLP would be of any lasting importance above and beyond the main article on the electors as a group.

Those are things to consider. I think that the specific coverage of her in the KUOW source tips the scale in favor of Guerra's biography being kept. She's famous because of her role in a historically noteworthy event (sure, it didn't accomplish much, at least, not immediately, who knows how it will affect things down the road, but it's still noteworthy), and, in the context of that event, has received specific coverage. Since the policy concerns of BLP1E are not relevant in this particular case, we have the less strict guidelines of BIO1E. The spirit of the guideline could be debated - I think that she's notable.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 16:31, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The KUOW source is a puff piece by a local NPR station. Good on her that she "stood down bullies in the wrestling room" and that she told one of her college professors she wanted to know more about politics, but none of that has anything to do with an encyclopedia. TimothyJosephWood 16:45, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
"Puff piece" is not exactly a specific definition, and is very open for interpretation. And not everything in an outside article might be encyclopedic by Wikipedia standards, but that doesn't mean that we throw out the entire source. I also disagree that an entire article has to just be about the biography subject - the Guardian piece that you mention isn't limited to Guerra, but that doesn't mean that its coverage of Guerra is insignificant.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 17:22, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Puff piece, and yes, that is my interpretation of exactly what it is. Look at this adorable small-town teenager whose political naivete won't stop her from taking on the big dogs. Look how cute, she reads the Federalist Papers. She's from... (and this is actual article content) where potatoes and onions are more relevant than Trump. She's their latest celebrity. The last one was Castro’s Uncle Paco, who was in a McDonald’s commercial for his potatoes.

I do not see anything in the reliable source guidelines that say local news outlets are not reliable sources. The link you gave to "puff piece" details promotional or advertising articles. This article isn't. It is a human interest story, yes, but about an elector who has made international headlines. You personally may not appreciate that article's style but I don't see anything there that renders it unreliable by Wikipedia standards.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 05:55, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia standards: Human interest reporting is generally not as reliable as news reporting, and may not be subject to the same rigorous standards of fact-checking and accuracy (see junk food news). TimothyJosephWood 10:57, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Comment - looking through some past discussion regarding WP:BLP1E, that policy was created in order to protect the privacy of individuals. Guerra has attracted, and hasn't complained about, the media attention, so there is not need to be concerned about a Wikipedia article violating her privacy. The more relevant guideline (but not policy) would be WP:BIO1E, which in this case I don't think applies.--3family6 (Talk to me | See what I have done) 15:01, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Just pointing this out to closer, but the page is currently receiving about a hundred views daily. If there's another analytical tool to see how many of those are wikilinking from another article, or reaching it through direct search, that would be more helpful, but it does seem like not leaving a redirect behind would be unhelpful for readers, especially since Faithless electors in the United States presidential election, 2016 is a very long descriptive title, and unlikely to be searched for verbatim.

Simply an advertisement for a local company with only trivial local attention about and nothing beyond the simple PR it is, there's nothing amounting to actual independent notability and substance and searches mirror this; the next is the fact it was deleted in 2008 as advertising which says enough there, including the fact this is exactly what it is now: Complete with "clients", "services", "PR awards", etc, that alone violates our advertising policies because it's blatant advertising, with no hopes of meaningful improvements. To the state the obvious, this was actually contributed to and watched by what seem to be company employees and, also worth noting, this was tagged for G11 in 2008 after restarting, but removed with the basis of "Send to AfD", but we all know our standards and policies have changed, so "improve it" is not applicable for ignoring WP:NOT.

Awards do not seem prestigious enough for WP:PROF. CapitalSasha ~ talk 18:23, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Awards are prestigious enough and notable.[1][2] 'The Freeman Scholar Award' is given to a person of significant expertise in fluids engineering and 'The Fluids Engineering Award' is bestowed for outstanding contributions, over a period of years, to the engineering profession and especially to the field of fluids engineering through research, practice, and/or teaching. Moreover the fact that Promode R. Bandyopadhyay is a 'Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)'(ASME#ASME_fellow) totally qualifies the criteria set in point No.3 of Wikipedia:Notability_(academics)#Specific criteria notes. Lastly, a person such as Promode R. Bandyopadhyay who is having 17 U.S. Patents[3] or inventions (and more than 5 pending) must have contributed significantly in the field of Engineering which again corresponds with point No.1 of Wikipedia:Notability_(academics)#Specific criteria notes. According to Google Scholars database, Promode R. Bandyopadhyay has a total citation of 3331, h-index of 24, i10-index of 55 (though the Measures of citability such as the h-index, g-index, etc., are of limited usefulness according to Wikipedia:Notability_(academics)#citation metrics) till date against 172 publications listed there. Quite notably, one of his papers titled 'New aspects of turbulent boundary-layer structure' has been cited by 800.[4] Suman chowdhury 22 (talk) 12:58, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As for the article at AX.com, it only mentions the name of the company in passing - it's not an article about 50/50innertainment - Wikipedia requires Substantial Coverage in Independent Reliable Sources which currently do not exist for this company.

on MTV it is not possible to sign up for an account.

The news section is where reliable sources are generally found - incidentally I've found the same Zero results after trying from proxy servers located in 10 separate countries. Have a look at articles for other producers or music industry professionals and you'll see what I mean - they are backed up by sources that meet Wikipedia's Reliable Sources threshold. What I suggest, going forward, is that you look for sources that aren't self-created (not social media, vevo, instagram etc.) and attempt to improve the article. I've made my point here a few times over & I see no reason to keep on repeating myself as you're just bringing up the same two sources repeatedly. Exemplo347 (talk) 20:49, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have looked in searches for other artist in the news section and you only pull up about 00.001 of the results for them as well sir, plus looking up on a Different IP address does not always give you the omitted results.By doing this you are not giving the Record Label the full coverage for themselves only going off what you see. Besides their impact online you have to take into note how they have impacted their community and genre in real life.One thing to understand is that Google's knowledge graph doesn't pull up all the information at once and has to be formatted in which takes time, it could take up to a year or longer.

I noticed this online so figured I would post it here, this company is owned by 50Cent and only people that work for this business can contribute works that they find factual. http://www.thisis50.com/profiles/blogs/50-50innertainment-bio-and-featureThetempoglass (talk) 02:17, 31 December 2016 (UTC) WP:SOCKSTRIKE 21:27, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article should be deleted because it fails WP:NOTDIRECTORY #7 which states, "Non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations, such as "people from ethnic / cultural / religious group X employed by organization Y" or "restaurants specializing in food type X in city Y". Cross-categories like these are not considered sufficient basis to create an article, unless the intersection of those categories is in some way a culturally significant phenomenon. See also Wikipedia:Overcategorization for this issue in categories. " This applies because it is a article about a insignificant cross-category.

  • Keep. Subject has played first-class cricket and thus meets WP:NCRIC (a subsection of WP:NATHLETE). Sources are always more difficult to find the farther back you get from the internet era (and in non-English-speaking countries in general), but they would definitely exist. CricketArchive (used in the article) and ESPNcricinfo ([13]) are both tertiary sources that demonstrate the existence of those secondary sources. IgnorantArmies (talk) 14:28, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep - can people please stop doing this. To suggest that one former first-class cricketer is more or less notable than another is violation of WP:NPOV, and frankly disruptive. Please explain what makes you believe that the source quoted is not independent or is unreliable. "This article does not cite sources" is an outright lie. Bobo. 14:34, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Note: the above comment is from the creator of this article. —swpbT 14:00, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • "This article does not cite sources" is also not something anyone said or came close to saying, so who's lying here? Independence and reliability are two of exactly three criteria explicitly stated in both WP:GNG and my nomination; the other, which you conveniently forgot, is significance of coverage. Two lines of stats confirming that, yes, this player existed, is not significant to me, no matter how independent and reliable it is. You can disagree with that assessment, but you're going to have a very bad time if you keep throwing false accusations. —swpbT 13:54, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      • I stand entirely by what I said. Bobo. 17:16, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • The subject of the article still needs to meet the GNG. It may be assumed that, given enough time, sources could be found to make this subject meet the GNG, but that is simply an assumption not a black and white statement of fact. NCRIC is a subset of NATH but the FAQ at the top of NATH makes it clear that subjects still have to meet the GNG - and simply having made an appearance in a cricket match does not, by itself, mean that it is automatically met; instead there need to be in suitably in depth sources about the subject of the article. If I don't think an article has a chance of doing that then it is still absolutely legitimate to challenge it and to suggest that it be deleted. I rather get the impression that a number of editors are unaware of the FAQ at the top of the page that NCRIC is on and/or have never actually read it. Blue Square Thing (talk) 16:14, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Unsure - in this case I am unconvinced that suitable secondary, in depth sources would be available. The team that the chap played for only played first-class cricket in the one competition - and from the list of matches appear to have only played two matches during that season, only one of which we have the scorecard for. Given that state of affairs, and that Kalat then don't have a record on CI of playing any cricket between 69/70 and 90/91 I have significant doubts that suitable sources could, in this case, be found. I'd be quite happy to give it some time for someone to try and source some but, frankly, this is the sort of article that needs to be judged rather than simply created because we can/must. We don't have to have a completionist approach - that's why CI and CA are there. I would tend towards delete if I had to make a call on this now, but I would rather give those editors who wish to retain it a chance to find sources first. Blue Square Thing (talk) 16:20, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep passes WP:CRIN as the player has played at first-class level, the highest form of domestic cricket. These AfD's are very much a waste of time excerise, dozens of similar cricketers have been nominated before and all have been kept. It would be helpful if people consulted the community agreed guidelines about cricketers before nominating for deletion; after all, it's why such guidelines exist.

  • Withdrawn - Although this school meets GNG, it doesn't meet ORG. However, I'm still going to withdraw this in light of Alansohn's comments. Most shared tech-voc centers such as this operate under the auspices of a school district or an intermediate school district. This one appears to be a joint venture created by the schools and districts involved. That's unique. Alan, as you are on the East coast, is there any way you could try to add some historical context to the origin of this school? Sir Joseph, the school exemption only applies to diploma granting institutions. The kids that go here graduate from their home school with a tech-voc diploma, not from here. The tech-voc center is a common model for tech education, but the kids do split days here and at their home schools. I'll leave a more detailed explanation on your talk.

I cannot find any indication that this band meets Notability criteria at WP:MUSIC. Nearly all of the original "references" were really just Wikilinks. Having eliminated those, only two references were left, neither of which mentions the subject at all - nor do they mention the statements they are linked to.

Debunking article claims :
1. "creates posters of Bollywood". I searched, seems all he has is a blog where he mimics popular Bollywood movie posters.
2. "featured in over 90 magazines and newspapers." I could find only like 20 appearances some of which are blogs. Plus it is not a criterion of being worthy to be on Wikipedia.
3. "He has earlier worked with Happily Unmarried, Comic Con India, and DSYN. He spent close to three years at Zomato, then took a short break during which he worked with All India Bakchod as a Social Media Manager. He is back at Zomato as of November 2015." - Those were his "jobs".
4. "Minimal Bollywood Posters is Akshar's brainchild " See the use of word "brainchild"
5. "His posters have caught the eye of Facebook users around the World since it became viral through Social Networking Forums such as Facebook and Twitter." Yes its just a small meme. Which is unknown to mass majority. Plus where is the reference for this line?
The user who had created this article has only two articles in his/her contribution list Special:Contributions/Shreiyachow . S/he has made only five edits till date. I suspect s/he wrote it as a promotion.--182.75.175.230 (talk) 10:09, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article should be deleted because it fails WP:NOTDIRECTORY #7 which states "Simple listings without context information. Examples include, but are not limited to: listings of business alliances, clients, competitors, employees (except CEOs, supervisory directors and similar top functionaries), equipment, estates, offices, products and services, sponsors, subdivisions and tourist attractions. Information about relevant single entries with encyclopedic information should be added as sourced prose. Lists of creative works in a wider context are permitted." This applies because the article is a simple listing with no context. KAP03 (talk) 04:55, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would also like to add that this article fails WP:NOTDIRECTORY #1 because it covers loosely related topics (namely breweries, wineries, and distilleries in Manitoba which are unrelated). The article also fails WP:CSC because not every entry meets the notability criteria or every entry on the fails the notability criteria. The list is also not a complete list of every item that is a member of this group. The list also fails WP:LISTNAME because list is too broad. KAP03Talk 22:34, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • The nominator continues to improve in wording his deletion arguments since Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of online real estate databases -- an area in which he now seems to be focused: deleting lists. Sometimes with good cause. But my response here remains much the same as online real estate databases: this is not without context information. The context here is perfectly clear, even to the point of supplying us with cities where the companies are based and the type of drink produced. This doesn't exactly mirror an existing category, far as I know, in that it groups makers of wine, beer and spirit together, but WP:CLN -- which the nominator has hopefully acquainted himself with by now -- still applies, I think.

Per the last deletion nomination, the article lacks the notability required to create a separate page, unlike List of most liked YouTube videos and List of most disliked YouTube videos. Although the page contains more sources than the last attempt at creating the page, all of the reliable sources do not discuss the most discussed YouTube videos, instead talking about the history of commenting on YouTube.

  • Delete or merge.

  • Delete – The subject of the article is very interesting, though even the lead section which describes the history of Youtube commenting is riddled with original research (the second paragraph, for instance, uses Reddit, Youtube, and Imgur as sources). But, more importantly, the list itself is entirely original research that doesn't really have a place on Wikipedia. There exists no notable interest for "the video with the most discussion happening on it" or something of that ilk. This might be of interest for a Youtube fan-wiki, but not on Wikipedia, even just per general notability guidelines. ~Mable (chat) 13:19, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – I'm afraid Maplestrip has it right. The subject of the list itself (what videos have had the most discussion) has not received the requisite coverage in reliable sources to be notable, and this is represented by the reliance on original research (citing videos themselves, which is drawing a conclusion that the sources themselves do not explicitly state). I would recommend merging what material in the lead is reliably sourced into Google+#Commenting on YouTube. It is interesting, but it doesn't belong as a standalone article in this encyclopedia at this time. Mz7 (talk) 16:53, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Exactly the same reasoning as last time. The fatal flaw with the article is still present; it's still an (almost) completely arbitrary and non-notable measurement (not least because of the vast amount of spam comments). Thegreatluigi (talk) 20:12, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – I would argue that the list is, in fact, notable and not at all an arbitrary measurement. Between 2005 and 2012, YouTube included an honors section and up-to-date charts for videos that received notable rankings in categories such as the most viewed, liked, favorited, or discussed videos of the day/week/month/all-time. Yes, the number of comments on a video was one of the categories that YouTube kept track of. YouTube included a full chart comprised of videos in the "Most Discussed" category, as can be seen in these archived pages from 2012, 2011, 2007, and 2006, just to list a few. If the measurement of comments was non-notable or arbitrary, YouTube wouldn't have made and maintained a chart for it for 8 years. Some examples of how the Most Discussed Videos has been a topic of interest in the past include: these two books about YouTube video marketing, published in 2009, which frequently refer to the "Most Discussed" list in their findings; at the end of 2010, YouTube Trends published a list of most discussed videos of the year; in 2012, the website "News & Guides" published a list of most discussed videos of all time; in 2014, Time published a list of most popular videos of the year, stating: “The top 10 wasn’t determined by view count alone, but rather by a more nebulous formula that includes "views, shares, comments, likes and more," according to YouTube.” This is a clear indication that the number of comments on a video is important and is taken into consideration when determining popularity. Videos that spark the most discussion, for whatever reason, should have their own article just like the most liked, disliked, and viewed videos do. As for reliability, the source for this article is the same as the sources for those three articles. In response to Maplestrip's comment: “There exists no notable interest for "the video with the most discussion happening on it" or something of that ilk. This might be of interest for a Youtube fan-wiki, but not on Wikipedia”, the same could be said about a large portion of Wikipedia articles as well. Many articles are so specific that they only appeal to a very small fraction of users, yet they remain on Wikipedia because the information is useful to the few it applies to. Given the additional details I've provided, I believe this article should not be deleted. --MattStan10 (talk) 23:56, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Although your analysis is lengthy, it is very flawed. First, YouTube doesn't have any honors for the "Most Discussed Videos" anymore. Second, the fact that two books mention a "most discussed" section doesn't warrant a Wikipedia article, especially when there are entire articles that talk about List of most liked YouTube videos [15] and List of most disliked YouTube videos [16]; for "Most discussed YouTube videos", only three articles on Google News. Third, the websites that you linked regarding "The Most Commented YouTube Videos" are not notable (such as "News and Guides", which hasn't posted an article since 2013, and "Youtube Trends", which is a Blog.) Fourth, although Time Magazine is a great source, the fact the article vaguely mentioned the comments of a video doesn't give the topic any notability. In a single sentence, there are no notable sources that provide a list of the "most discussed YouTube videos". Plus, you recreated this article even though it was previously deleted. Yoshiman6464 (talk) 01:24, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I understand that YouTube got rid of the honors feature but that doesn't diminish the fact that they had it for 8 years and maintained up-to-date charts on the most discussed videos until the end of 2012. If this article was created when YouTube still had the charts, would it still be deleted, despite the fact that YouTube itself felt it was significant enough to keep track of? Also, the YouTube Trends page that I linked to was created and is operated by YouTube, so I would consider it to be a notable source. When I created the article in October I had no idea it was previously made and deleted. I just felt there should've been an article for the most discussed videos since there was one for every other major YouTube category. I figured it was a notable enough topic since YouTube used to provide charts about it for years, and I figured the source was reliable enough since similar sources have been used for other similar articles. --MattStan10 (talk) 09:09, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's like you read the first part of my argument and skimmed through the rest. First, this category is simply not notable because there are not any reliable sources that cover this topic. Also, the fact that YouTube had this topic for eight years does not make it notable. You questioned "If this article was created when YouTube still had the charts, would it still be deleted, despite the fact that YouTube itself felt it was significant enough to keep track of?" The answer is yes because there are no reliable secondary sources that cover this list. Second, I had made the mistake of calling YouTube Trends simply as "a Blog". What I meant to say is that it is a Blog run by the official site. Citing this source would violate WP:OR because you would cite YouTube itself. I am aware in all of the YouTube related lists cite directly to the YouTube videos, but the information in the lead paragraph in those articles contain sources from good secondary sources. Furthermore, even if we could cite this, this list originated from 2010; there are no similar lists from this current year. Finally, you said when you created this article in October, you had no idea that it was deleted. That is a lie, because Wikipedia would notify that the article in question had been deleted prior to creating the article, as seen in this image. In conclusion, my point still stands that measuring YouTube comments is not a notable metric, even back then when YouTube itself used to measure it. Yoshiman6464 (talk) 14:17, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Perhaps you're right. I initially considered the former YouTube Charts [17] and YouTube Trends Blog [18] to be notable sources, but after reading WP:GNG I can understand the reasoning for why the topic may not be notable enough to warrant a stand-alone list. Maybe if the topic receives significant coverage from reliable sources in the future, it may be worthy of its own article, but not at this time. --MattStan10 (talk) 21:17, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Who knows what may happen in the following years :) ~Mable (chat) 21:47, 31 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I doubt that reliable sources would discuss about the "Most Discussed YouTube videos", especially when none was given when YouTube had the category. Yoshiman6464 (talk) 00:35, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Anything is possible. The Guinness World Records includes records for the most comments on a Weibo post [19] and the most comments on a Facebook item [20] so it's possible that one day they (or other sources) could discuss the most comments on YouTube videos. --MattStan10 (talk) 22:11, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • The records set by Guinness World Records deal only with the top comment of a particular post, and not an entire list of posts (as the article tries to present). Yoshiman6464 (talk) 04:31, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The subject of mayors of Wasilla is out of proportion to the importance of the job. We all know why this is, because a certain famous person once occupied the role. Notability is not inherited however and a close read reveals that much of what is in the sources is more related to what she thinks of Palin than anything to do with her as a person and a mayor of a suburb. Beeblebrox (talk) 03:59, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - The most common argument in the first three nominations is that the article should be expanded. It is really difficult do do that, especially when the only sources she has been in date from 2008 (Link to alternate search), all of which have to do with her thoughts regarding Sarah Palin per the nominator. Yoshiman6464 (talk) 04:08, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • For a sense of scale, the local government of the Matanuska-Susitna Borough, of which Wasilla is a just a tiny portion, has no article, and neither do any of the leaders of the Borough Assembly, a body governing an area of nearly 25,000 square miles and containing nearly 90,000 people. This is not because nobody has gotten around to it yet, it's becaue local government people are generally not particularly notable and an assosciation by simply occupying the same office as someone who went on to bigger things does not confer notability on every future holder of that post. Beeblebrox (talk) 04:15, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The real problem I see is not so much a lack of notability as a lack of "popularity", which becomes all too obvious when participants in this AFD have made the discussion one about Sarah Palin, while at the same time barely or not even acknowledging Keller's existence. For another sense of scale, the Mat-Su Borough is the second most populous municipality in Alaska per 2015 estimates. It does not have a strong mayor, but the holder of that office has other possible claims to notability, primarily from competing in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. What's really out of proportion is the weight we've given to the office of mayor of Juneau, also not a strong mayor, especially since the coverage of the untimely death of the last regularly-elected holder of that office epitomized "slow news day reporting". The obsession certain editors have had with that office boils down to the trivia-like aspect of it being the mayor of a state capital, nothing more. We have an editor living in Juneau who has shown a fondness for cherry-picking data to claim that Juneau is Alaska's second-largest community. As a "unified municipality", the Census Bureau reports a single population figure (31,275 in the 2010 Census) for the central city, all of its suburbs and thousands of square miles of wilderness. Fairbanks, which is really Alaska's second-largest community, reports a similar population figure within corporate limits that are 1/100th the size, while over twice as many other people live in the borough outside city limits. There's a point to all this. The claim that Wasilla is "a place with a population of just 8K" is highly misleading and that figure is being manipulated for approximately the same reason as I outline above. The Census Bureau's FactFinder site reports a population of 33,742 for the eight census tracts containing portions of or directly abutting Wasilla city limits. It also reports a population of 52,168 for the 99654 ZIP Code area. Wasilla does have a strong mayor, as one of the above-listed Google hits points out, and is a retail hub serving a population base approaching or into the six digits, so this office is a lot more important than it may appear on the surface. As we are in no way consistent in the manner in which we define communities on the encyclopedia, except perhaps to endlessly regurgitate certain census data, a statement such as "a place with a population of just 8K" can only be used to gain unfair advantage in an argument. We already have the POV-ish problem of every piece of big-city minutiae being treated as inherently notable while other places are covered as content for content's sake, belittling local knowledge and sources even when they provide useful information, in this case favoring the New York Timeses and Washington Posts of the world showing up and saying nothing important about Wasilla.

  • Delete The coverage is because a former holder of the office became notable (I think it was her immediate predecessor) and local media coverage of local events. This is just not enough to justify an encyclopedia article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:41, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The fact that one former mayor of Wasilla went on to become notable for other reasons beyond the mayoralty does not, in and of itself, create an automatic inclusion freebie for all of her predecessors or successors — each mayor of Wasilla still has to clear WP:NPOL completely on his or her own steam, because a place with a population of just 8K does not hand its mayors an automatic pass. Third discussion also hinged far too strongly on the flawed notion that the second discussion, six years earlier, automatically settled things for all time despite the total lack of substantive improvement or the fact that consensus can change. There's just no substance here to warrant an article, however; the only "nationalized" coverage here is cursory coverage of her endorsement of her much more famous predecessor's campaign for national office — but endorsing a candidate in another election is not a notability claim in and of itself either. Bearcat (talk) 17:25, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – The sentiment I saw expressed throughout the previous AFDs was that the community should learn to respect the context of the local area. It's rather sad to see that in the case of a community which is celebrating its centennial this year, Wikipedians are still content to forever tread water on one tiny blip of national media attention from eight years ago. It almost begs for the creation of WP:OTHERSOURCESEXIST. Speaking of which, I discounted the Google results Yoshiman referred to above, as they merely parrot the same old Palin worship. Those stories all point out that Keller was the incumbent mayor who succeeded Palin, but I'm not seeing one mention of how she was weeks away from leaving office and whether this was due to her being term-limited or due to the contentious relationship she had with the city council. A NewsBank/NewsLibrary search proved more illuminating. Still, I'm going to say delete based on that. While coverage did continue strong after she left office, including hints of continued national media coverage, there's very little after early summer 2009. Most of it had to do with the city council asking her to resign and with a land use dispute which turned personal, both of which could be viewed as BLP problems.

(As I've pointed out before, however, I can be reliably sourced as existing, and so can the woman who lives a mile down the road from my parents who woke up one morning to find a pig in her front yard — so she and I would both have Wikipedia articles if "reliable sources attest that this person exists" were all it took to satisfy WP:GNG and the context in which that coverage was being given didn't actually have to pass any standards of significance.) In this particular instance, I find it especially fascinating — as written, this article just hagiographies the positive side of his work and portrays him as an unqualified success, but on a ProQuest search what I found is that the strongest case for inclusion would be that his mortgage brokership "empire" collapsed in a 1989 bankruptcy filing. I'm not, however, finding evidence that the collapse had anything more than purely local effects, so I consider it a purely local WP:BLP1E that's not worth actually upgrading with the real basis for notability — his significance does not extend far enough beyond the purely local to justify us violating his personal financial privacy rights by pulling his company's collapse out of the newspaper archives and into one of the most widely read websites on the entire planet.
