  • delete the topic looks as as if it might be notable, however there is no content here that is worth keeping. It reads too much like an essay or review. If it is totally rewritten then reconsider. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 20:50, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

ISBN 9781483291673.. But the current article is full of synthesis and looks like a WP:COATRACK for the Wiley ChemPlanner product.

Was deprodded a long while ago, because maybe there was the slightest chance of the existence of native-language sources. Well, apart from WP mirrors, I am unable to find anything for زبیر احمد خالد شہید. The single source in the article is a book review, telling among others that Zubair Khalid is a character in said book. While the book may be based on true accounts, it is still a work of fiction and I would not be surprised if Khalid was (partially) made up. In any case, he does not look like a notable WP:SOLDIER.

  • Keep, tentatively. The article is somewhat promotional and should be tagged and/or edited for that. It should be considered to be a combo article about Nancy Howes and about KnowYourself.com company, and it should be edited to more explicitly cover the company.

PROD contested by nominator, although I disagree with their rationale. Way too soon, the nominator has even said on their talkpage discussion to me here that "details for it will begin to come within 600 days." That's 2 years away. In 2 years, we may have enough information about e.g. some countries actually bidding, but at current we have a couple of articles speculating that some countries may bid for it.

  • Keep - although it needs editing - I don't like the premise behind this article as it currently reads. I don't think album or DVD releases or planned tours fall under WP:NOTFUTURE as long as its clear that those dates are proposed and not set in stone. For example, knowing the Rolling Stones are going on tour in March is no less notable on Dec. 31 than January 1. And we do have List of 2018 albums, which to me is perfectly fine. Knowing what we have to look forward to is convenient. The LA Times and NY Times have seasonal preview sections for the arts. All good and notable. What bothers me instead is the structure of this article, and the assumptions made by the template. Certain countries and certain genres are listed, whether they have articles or not. Who gets to decide that there should be these 28 countries and these 13 genres? Is the quest to communicate knowledge just limited to filling in the red blanks, or do we want to approach music with an open mind? I'd much prefer to see the article start somewhat blank, and build organically as music is recorded and released. My recommended edits are to remove everything that is redlinked - that does violate WP:NOTFUTURE. Also, the IP voting 5 times in this AfD and proclaiming that he's found consensus also rubs me a bit the wrong way, but I'm still going with keep.

Article about footballer who hasn't played in a fully-pro league and who isn't the subject of significant coverage in reliable sources. PROD was contested on the grounds that the article satisfies WP:FOOTBALL because he has played in Liga MX, however all sources indicate that he has never played in Liga MX, but rather has made 2 substitute appearances in the initial phase of the Copa MX - i.e., not a fully-pro league. Even if someone believes that the cameos in the cup competition are equivalent to playing in the league (a dubious claim in my view), the only online coverage of this player is a handful of routine match reports, a mention of him being let go by Veracruz, and an announcement of his signing for a semi-pro club (Orizaba).

  • Keep passes WP:FOOTY .He has played in the Copa MX for Veracruz against Monterrey when the both clubs for playing Liga MX a fully professional league as per this .Now the subject is only 26 years and is currently playing for Veracruz in Copa MX hence see little point in deleting it.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 21:28, 20 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • He left Veracruz in 2016, and plays for semi-pro Orizaba - most 26 year old players don't revive their careers after dropping out of professional football, and it seems like we would be applying WP:CRYSTAL to assume he will make further appearances in Copa MX (or an actual fully-pro league). I agree that he made two cameos in the Copa MX (initial phase), which doesn't get significant coverage unlike Liga MX or even Ascenso MX. That a dubious notability claim in my view. Jogurney (talk) 04:23, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • :As per Soccerway profile as I type he is listed as Veracruz player now even he is playing Orizaba .Now if he was injured or retired it would be different but he is 26 years and actively playing hence would not normally agree to deletion any sportsman who meets WP:NSPORT and is actively playing.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 10:17, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Maybe you are correct. This article indicates that Manzo left Orizaba (due to age restrictions) at the end of May 2017 - and while unclear, he may have returned to Veracruz in some capacity. I'll see if there is anything which confirms he is in Veracruz's future plans. Jogurney (talk) 14:23, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Actually, there are no mentions of him on Veracruz's official website since late 2016, and he is not listed in the equipo. Perhaps he is playing for another affiliated club, but it seems more likely the club has cut ties with him (as they would have when he moved to Orizaba in 2016).

Delete - If the article "needs improvement", then do it. Find the sources, expand the article, make it pass the notability requirements, and turn this into encyclopedic content and not just another stub. I'm not a fan of adding biographies that will can never reach an encyclopedic level. In this case in particular, the amount of sources to back up this player are just not there. This is a non-notable football profile. MX () 02:15, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Nomination statement is right on the money I think. With only 51 minutes across 2 substitute appearances in a cup competition that has amateur teams as well, the "presumption" of notability on the basis that his two games were between 2 professional teams is tenuous even if that is technically meeting NFOOTBALL. Given that he now plays in a non pro league and not generating in depth coverage, this subject fails WP:GNG. ClubOranjeT 10:17, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete the bright line in NFOOTY presumes there is enough significant coverage to satisfy GNG. This presumption does not seem to apply to this subject due to lack of experience and time of play at the appropriate level, as well a presumably notable level. A sports biography that has no chance of expansion because the subject has dropped below the radar of significant coverage is not the intent behind covering subjects on Wikipedia. We are not a repository for indiscriminate information. As stated above: If the article "needs improvement", then do it. Find the sources, expand the article, make it pass the notability requirements, and turn this into encyclopedic content... ---Steve Quinn (talk)

Comment SNGs exist to provide for the inclusion of certain defined subjects that cannot immediately be shown to pass GNG. An SNG provides for a presumption of notability, not a presumption of non-notability An SNG cannot be used to exclude/delete an article when the subject passes GNG, but the reverse is patently absurd because that would negate the entire reason for the existence of SNGs particularly for a player currently playing and only 26 years old.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 01:28, 7 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment There doesn't seem to be enough evidence to indicate this person is likely to play in fully professional leagues. And presumption of notability based on minutes played for Veracruz in a cup tournament is dubious, especially if he is currently playing below the professional level - meaning the subject fails GNG due to a lack of significant coverage. If it were firmly established that the next part of his career would be in the pros then that would be different. So, as stated above, WP:CRYSTAL applies as does WP:IINFO due to WP:TOOSOON. If he starts generating enough acceptable coverage to satisfy GNG then recreate or resurrect this article. Also, as a biography of a living person, more reliable sourcing should be available for a Wikipedia article. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 02:18, 7 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    • We have a longstanding consensus of viewing such minimal play in a fully-pro league (or in this case a cup competition) as not actually satisfying NFOOTBALL unless it's clear that GNG can be satisfied (e.g., Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wouter Soomer). We are not pre-judging his career but rather noting the facts - he has never appeared in a fully-pro league (just a cup) and has spent the last few years with semi-pro clubs. Jogurney (talk) 03:48, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    The article's only reference to Rasche's notability is that NEWSru mentioned her in passing in 2011, in an article about the Saint Petersburg Conservatory, in a list of the conservatory's "famous" graduates. However, I see that an IP address geolocating to Austria added Rasche's name, unsourced, to the list of "outstanding" students in the Russian WP article on the conservatory in 2009. Her name was still there in 2011 when the NEWsru article appeared, so the NEWsru author may have copied it.
    According to Lcamtuf during the first AfD, the article appeared in 2006 "on multiple major Wikipedias on the same day in precisely the same form", written by Djiggy, aka Slidersoul and, on the Russian WP, aka Galrasche (see redirect). That the article existed on several projects was interpreted in August this year by KDS4444 as signalling notability; hence the request to undelete. NDJ restored the text to User:KDS4444/Gal Rasche, and KDS moved it over. Perhaps the articles on other projects have improved since 2006, but checking everything would be a lot of work. What I'd suggest is that this be deleted, and that someone interested in keeping it conduct a search for RS in any language, rewrite it in draft space if enough sources exist, then go to DRV for consensus to recreate it.

The subject is a university professor ("university" and "distinguished" being academic equivalents)— this means the subject meets the requirements of WP:ACADEMIC, and therefore likely warrants an article. Some of the article's content is connected to directory information because that information is not self-serving, is not contested, etc., and is therefore acceptable as a source of information per WP:BLP.

Entirely promotional, and with no demonstrate notability. The article was entirely devoted to promoting his views, to the extent thatI think G11 might apply. . Furthermore the sources are either mere mentions in general articles, or are about other people such Kurzwell, or are citations to his own works. The first AfD was closed as Delete, and nothing much has changed. DGG ( talk ) 09:25, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Now that neoreaction has sprung up and he's become the leader of the NRx transhumanists, I'd say he's more notable than he was in 2004. Smooth alligator (talk) 09:49, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
your opinion, but I see no evidence. But any possible notability is irrelevant if the article is entirely promotional--the basic policy is NOTADVERTISING, which prevents us from having a promotional article on a person whether or not they pass the [[WP:N] notability guideline. DGG ( talk ) 14:23, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Are we talking now about a subtler kind of advertising than the kind that gets deleted under G11? Because when I think of unambiguous advertising, I think of stuff like, "Michael Anissimov now is selling Idaho Project for only $6.99. This handy eBook fits conveniently right into your Kindle. But wait, there's more! Call within the next 15 minutes and get this Idaho-shaped keychain absolutely free. You heard right -- FREE! $8.99 shipping and handling fee may apply.)"
It would be easier to make the case that it isn't promotional if more people had attacked him (and I did google for that; darn it, Southern Poverty Law Center, where are you when we need you?), but unfortunately, from what I can tell, they didn't. That's a little surprising, since normally any white nationalist will get attacked. But what I find is that Anissimov mostly got covered in articles that were either related to his interests outside of WN, or doing a survey of the NRx movement as a whole and saving the criticism for either the movement as a whole or more prominent figures in it.
It's not the most obvious case of notability, since it's not like a lot of major press outlets have devoted entire articles just to him, the way they have with, say, Curtis Yarvin or Ray Kurzweil. On the other hand, the mentions he does get usually go into enough detail to describe his philosophy and approach, so I don't see it as the most obvious case of non-notability either. Smooth alligator (talk) 15:00, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
DGG: is it WP:G4-worthy? I can't see the deleted version obviously. DrStrauss talk 14:25, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, he did restore the deleted versions. 2007, 2009. Those were much shorter and more poorly-referenced articles, and at any rate, consensus can change over an 8-year period. Smooth alligator (talk) 14:44, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. My own searching turns up lots of sources, but they're all blogs, social media, and niche-interest websites. None of which remotely approach being a WP:RS. There's a large number of references in the article; I'm not willing to look through all of them, but I did look at one that looked promising from New York Magazine. It's a WP:RS, and does indeed mention Anissomov, but the article's not really about him; it's about the broader subject of transhumanism. It's not a bad source, but it's not enough on its own. If somebody could point out (no more than) two or three of the best sources, I'd be willing to look at them in more detail. But, for now, this looks like a delete. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:04, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, he seems to chronically be in more of a supporting actor type role than the star himself. He gets quoted in The Singularity Is Now, people thank him in their papers for his comments, and he serves in various capacities for different organizations, but whatever are his accomplishments usually get subsumed under those of others he influences or of the organizations he belongs to. Supposedly Accelerating Future was "among the most popular transhumanist blogs, with over 100,000 monthly uniques" but I didn't find an RS for that, and I'm not sure how much of an accomplishment that is anyway. I guess it pays in life sometimes to try to grab more of the spotlight and glory. @RoySmith:, oh, there is this piece. Smooth alligator (talk) 17:37, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • All roles so far are non-notable. Delete. Alexius08 (talk) 09:43, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Sources are all web ephemera, except for the Suffolk Times, in which the subject is only mentioned trivially. Article is basically a CV. Director roles are all red-links and it looks like, for the notable films listed, subject had routine job duties (Office Production Assistant, Script Supervisor, etc). This appears to be another nuisance page created as a class project (January to April, 2016) by a SPA who never edited any other articles. These "learning experiences" are creating an increasing amount of clean-up work. Agricola44 (talk) 15:11, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I agree that the minor its in "misc credits" looked like a CV, so I deleted those. The other parts of the page bear more srutiny for notability-- her achievements are not inconsequential.104.163.152.238 (talk) 08:49, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment. The article was scrutinized and there are (currently) 2 factors that are BLP deal-breakers: (1) while there are lots of sources, none are RS (they're all web-cruft) and (2) each of the works for which she claims a creative role is itself obscure, i.e. her work "has not been noted". So, while I concede the subjective assertion about consequential achievements, she has not been sufficiently noted for a WP article. I'm glad to change my position if several RS can be found that note her and/or her work. I've done some general searching, but could not find anything. For reference, I'll note that flippant assertions, like "Meets GNG" (below), are unconvincing and should be dismissed. But, I'd be delighted to discuss any substantive findings you might have. Sometimes BLPs in the entertainment business have out-of-the-way sources that are not easy to find. Agricola44 (talk) 15:33, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment on updated content. I appreciate the effort that has gone into improving the article, and this is one of the benefits of the AfD process. I still find, however, that it suffers from exceedingly weak sourcing on key claims of notability. Most of the claimed awards and accolades are drawn from ShariCarpenter.com and from her own spoken oral history. Her first film caused a minor ripple at most, and her second film has -- as its only source -- a tangential mention in a foreign-language article on the subject of someone else. What is well documented is that Ms. Carpenter is a script supervisor, and no doubt a good one, but not one meriting an article in Wikipedia. GetSomeUtah (talk) 19:30, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete no indication of notability. Sources are not up to standards which would indicate notability. It appears she made one niche film in 2001 which did not demonstrate a broad cultural impact or garner criticism in the mainstream press. There is mention of another film, apparently, which again does not correlate with notability for the subject. She has scriptwriter credits but has not garnered significant mainstream press coverage in that regard. And so on... Going through the sources was tedious.

The result was redirect to Foodpanda#International brands. There is only one clear consensus here: That this should not exist as a stand-alone article. No consensus exists how to handle it, with delete and merge !votes being of equal weight, especially considering that neither WP:PROMO nor WP:PAID explicitly force us to delete material but mention deletion as a possible outcome (cf. WP:WHATISTOBEDONE which is part of WP:NOT and points among others to WP:ATD-R).

On the other hand, there is no agreement that there is really anything worth merging. In the end, the only thing that enjoys some consensus is to redirect to Foodpanda (since redirecting is part of merging and none of the delete !votes have mentioned any reason why this is not a likely search term). I am leaving the history in place so anyone who thinks there is something mergeable can pick content from there but redirecting and not slapping a {{merge to}} banner on it is the only way to ensure that the main consensus - that this should not be a stand-alone article - is followed.

WP:What Wikipedia is not and WP:Deletion policy, apply given the promotionalism has not changed a year later and, worse, one of the last AfD voters was an uncovered paid user therefore casting questions all around. In a vote last comment, someone said WP:V was satisfied but a ToU violation like this immediately outweighs that; worse when WP:GNG is not an automatic factor, but instead a "possibility of an article", not guarantee. The offered sources before were no better:

  • 1-3, 7, 8, 9 (the latter 3 especially sharing the same format style) a labeled announcement
  • 4 is a self-serving indiscriminate press release
  • 5 is a general business award for one specification, therefore not significant
  • 6 is a company funding roll
  • 10 is a business column for several companies, not only this one
  • 11, 12 and 13 are all local interest stories, showing no independent coverage outside their business Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ Talk 16:03, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge into Foodpanda. I think this argument is a moot point as EatOye is being rebranded as the already notable Foodpanda, a similar German company that bought EatOye in 2015. I personally think there's plenty of material that could be included in a standalone EatOye article if the current one was rewritten from a purely neutral point of view.

Dear 86.17.222.157, the problem here is not only the lack of recognition, but in fact the inexistence of this party - first of all there should be proven that this party exists, and only then that it meets the requirements of WP:N (as this was a one-day political "party", which suddenly appeared before 2011 local elections and then disappeared). Also, this article shows a misinformation by stating that the party was founded in 2012, while both the two cited sources are published in 2011 and no other mention regarding the year of 2012 exists.

  • Delete – fails WP:GNG & WP:BAND. All but one of the cited sources of the article are user-generated, without having editorial oversight. They aren't even considered reliable on this project, let alone using them to prove notability. The only reliable source of the article lists the name of the above band with other 14 bands while mentioning timings of a village festival.
We need in-depth coverage in multiple third-party reliable sources, which is totally missing here. I couldn't find any decent source either. - NitinMlk (talk) 20:49, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Pema Wainwright, you don't need a digital copy of the newspaper articles for use in the article – just cite the source where they can be found, e.g. "Smith, Joe (12 October 2017). 'Carcana Review'. The Times". But it would help if they weren't just local Cornish newspapers, to prove that they are notable outside of the local community.

  • Comment – The user name of the page creator – who also happens to be almost the sole contributor to the article – suggests that they should be the last person to edit it. But unfortunately the use of WP for promotion by COI editors is common. Anyway, their unverifiable claims should be taken with a pinch of salt. - NitinMlk (talk) 20:24, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Thank you for the newspaper article advice Richard3120 I have now done this, although I did only have local newspaper articles to add at this time. I had previously added newspaper articles from France, as Caracana have often played there, but these are not so numerous or easy to access from another country. NitinMlk claims that I stated that I "should be the last person to edit it". I haven't done this, nor do I understand where it has come from. As far as notability is concerned, in Wikipedia's guide for Musicians and Ensembles, Caracana fit perfectly under category 7; 'Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city'. Caracana are one of the most prominent representatives of the 'new wave' of the Cornish Revival. There is a local scene that they are very much a part of. I have now fulfilled all criteria that has been asked of me, with references to back it all up. I kindly request that this article be kept. If there is more that I can do, please let me know how. I am fairly new to Wikipedia.Pema Wainwright (talk) 19:20, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Firstly, every participant can !vote only once, which you've already done in your first comment here. So I struck out your duplicate !vote.
Secondly, as far as the french news article is concerned, it isn't about Caracana. It just listed its name with other 14 bands while mentioning the timings of an event. That's not even a passing mention.
Thirdly, please read my comment again. I didn't claim that you said this or that. I just wanted to point out WP:Conflict of interest, but couldn't elaborate because of WP:Outing.
Finally, in your latest edits, you've added three sources. One of them is a local newspaper, which mentioned your band in passing. The other two – "What's On, Friday" & "What's On, Wednesday" – seems like lists of program schedules. In short, your band has got few passing mentions here & there in local media, but it isn't WP:Notable. - NitinMlk (talk) 22:15, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Relevant traditional folk bands such as this one should normally be kept under WP:BAND Section 7. In my opinion this subject meets WP:GNG and therefore also WP:BAND Section 1.
I see in this discussion the issue of Pema Wainwright editing the article about a group which includes a person of the same name. I do not want to seem bitey, but this could be a WP:COI. Once this is closed I will probably have to rewrite the article to deal with this.
The band is important locally, has played at Lowender Peran for example, and there is a fair bit of local coverage not mentioned here from Cornwall Live, The West Briton and the Cornish Guardian. (if it was online I would link it). Further afield the band has represented Cornwall (in its celtic nation capacity, which is a cultural thing) at the international Festival Interceltique de Lorient, which is a culturally important event, if not massive with only ~70,000 attendees. The group can sing in Cornish, this automatically makes them an integral part of the Cornish Revival movement, as far as I can ascertain, they appear relevant enough to have attracted attention in the other celtic nations, eg Wales and Brittany, again this is local coverage, but it is from other localities therefore showing relevance further afield, as well as showing the topic meets criterion 1 of WP:BAND.
Anyway I have already commented that I think it ought to be kept, so this is just the reasoning. Dysklyver 19:50, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – Your comment is full of unverifiable claims, bordering on WP:ILIKEIT. You must quote reliable sources instead of making claims by yourself, as you are not a reliable source. It seems clear that the above band didn't get more than passing mentions in the local sources, let alone national/international sources. Please also elaborate how it meets GNG, as I couldn't find even a single in-depth reliable source about Caracana. If the sources are offline, you can quote them here. So that's not a problem as well. - NitinMlk (talk) 22:15, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note to Luckyexlib: if there was an association of Nobel prize winners and no one wrote about that associaton in reliable sources, we would not have an article on it here in Wikipedia. The standard for notability (i.e. inclusion) is that RS have written about the article subject. In the case of Ex Libris, there is little to no coverage in published sources.

Comment on reliable sources:

I believe references to the activity and publications of Ex Libris Association in major periodicals above such as ---

New Library World ((2007) Canadian Journal of Information and Library Science (2017) Libraries & Culture (2002) The Canadian Historical Review (1996) Quill & Quire (1996)

are reliable sources.

As for Feliciter (RIP) articles published by the Canadian Library Association in print and online until 2016, I would think that NOT FINDING INFORMATION OR ANY EVIDENCE about Ex Libris in a national library publication would bolster an argument for deletion rather than than the reverse thinking above.

Reliable sources, for Wikipedia purposes, are independent of the subject. An organization does not get a Wikipedia article just because it has a website about itself, or because it has "coverage" in the newsletter of a directly-affiliated organization like the Canadian Library Association, or because its existence gets namechecked in articles that aren't about it — it gets a Wikipedia article when, and only when, it's the subject of coverage in sources that are fully independent of it. And you also need to familiarize yourself with our conflict of interest rules — as a person who's directly involved with the organization you get no special privilege to control the article's existence or its content or its sourcing.

The article was created to promote a film which has passed into blessed obscurity; there is little evidence anyone uses this term at all - especially in the sense the article uses it. One of the two cites that even mentions it uses it in a completely different sense. I have no idea how this junk passed AFC. Pinkbeast (talk) 01:29, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I could only find this Romper article about the subject. I'd assume that article alone probably isn't enough to constitute "significant coverage" but I'll leave it to the AFD experts to decide. AdA&D 02:20, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. While the article does seem to have been created to promote a film (fortunately, the reference to the film has been removed from the article), the word "babymoon" is in use with the meaning indicated ("a vacation taken by couples when one of them is pregnant"). See this book, this book, Parents magazine, Travel Channel, Scientific American, and Reader's Digest, for example. I don't know whether that means that the article should be kept, but the word didn't just come out of nowhere and land in Wikipedia. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:21, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Reasonable catch, but still, Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Is there anything actually significant or notable about going on holiday when pregnant? The article doesn't really suggest so. Pinkbeast (talk) 16:28, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Wikipedia is not a dictionary.

  • Redirect to List of Indianapolis neighborhoods. The Indy Star article seems to have been reverted because that edit broke the original AfD notice. In any event, neither Lexis-Nexis nor EBSCO's Newspaper Source Plus indicate that the Star had any articles about this subject during 2006, so the editor may have been mistaken in their linking. No evidence has been provided in the last eleven years of notability and it appears that none is currently available, either. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 00:56, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:GNG requires significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. This page has cited 6 sources and most of them not uses the term "West Block Blues".No real indication that the supporters of the club have recieved in depth reliable coverage. A lot of the sources are just stats about attendences and WP:ROUTINE news reporting about the sort of events that happen to some degree to all groups of football fans thus delete.

  • Keep While the article in its current state only has six (admittedly not-so-good) sources and it certainly doesn't pass WP:GROUP or WP:NSPORT, those factors alone don't disqualify it from meeting WP:GNG. Just a cursory Google News search found a plethora of sources dealing with the West Block Blues as either the main subject or an important part of the piece (in no particular order, [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] bolded articles have the West Block Blues as the primary subject). It may be unorthodox to grant a fan group its own standalone article, but I think the depth of coverage offers a good argument to do so. Gargleafg (talk) 08:45, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:GNG requires significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. This page currently cited 6 sources and only two of them barely uses the term "West Block Blues" Notable fan clubs may get more coverage than this, but there is nothing to suggest this club is anything of note. No reliable secondary sources mentioning this fan group, thus failing WP:RS, WP:V and notability for non-commercial organisations at WP:CLUB. Akhiljaxxn (talk) 11:43, 16 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep more than enough reliable sources have been identified by Gargleafg for WP:GNG to be passed Atlantic306 (talk) 22:41, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The existing references isn't enough to justify a standalone article , they don't pass WP:GNG as significant coverage of the subject directly in detail; .There is the Supporters section which is covered very well in its parent article Bengaluru FC.
