Non-notable married couple lacking independent in-depth, non-trivial support. Should be redirected to Goodreads, at minimum the article should be broken into two article, one for each individual in title. reddogsix (talk) 23:59, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - This couple is notable because they formed an important internet company. "He founded the company with the bride," The New York Times said. People don't get a mention like that in The Times unless they are worthy of notice, and in this case they are seen as a couple. So my opinion is Retain as-is. Sincerely, BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 04:34, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Wedding announcements are NOT independent resources. They are usually provided by the family or friends of the participants. reddogsix (talk) 04:46, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete not a reasonable title for a redirect. The individual people may be notable, but none of the existing references demonstrate that. The couple is not notable as a couple for founding a website, and their marriage announcement certainly doesn't make that notable. power~enwiki (π, ν) 19:39, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: my first thought was "split", but looking at the sources it seems like neither have enough coverage to warrant an article, and notability is not inherited from Goodreads. We have a small amount of coverage of Chandler here and I could give the benefit of the doubt and say this is reliable, but that's unfortunately not enough. I oppose redirecting the page, as this is not a plausible search phrase. Bilorv(c)(talk) 14:26, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I've gone through and updated the references, cleaned up the language so that it doesn't sound promotional and removed duplicate text that was mirroring the language from the website. This article is helpful for the Guyanese diaspora and those interested in the work of Ali. Of Note and Ms. Ali are well know in the Caribbean community. ScottinGeorgia (talkcontribs) 1:29, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
  • Keep. this review of OF NOTE is useful. The Economist article doesn't seem to be useful. This item from a "reported blog" (hence, I think, a reliable source) at least talks about an issue of the magazine. This is about a radio show's discussion of the content in a particular issue of OF NOTE. An article from Images and Voices of Hope discusses another issue of OF NOTE, although the article is by an editor at OF NOTE. I think the references that explicitly talk about OF NOTE add up to enough to establish notability. Eastmain (talkcontribs) 11:16, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – The first reference does not mention OF NOTE at all. I have not read all of the rest of them, but the ones that seemed most likely turn out to be just brief mentions of OF NOTE on the way to talking about the subject of interest that OF NOTE may also have written about. It's hard to make out the notability of the website itself amongst the notable subjects that it takes on and therefore gets mentioned for. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 02:03, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. I do not find that Tyw7's argument about "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist" has been countered effectively. At the same time, it is clear that no consensus to delete exists. I encourage editors to follow up on power~enwiki's suggestion to start an RFC at an appropriate venue.

For example, http://www.norgeskart.no/#!/?zoom=11&lon=119262.00&lat=6904518.00&project=seeiendom&layers=1002,1015 for Vetldalseggi --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 16:46, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep all per Eastmain and DGG, and the sources identified by Mortee. Mountains like these ones generally are notable. James500 (talk) 06:09, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep all. Reiterate DGG's comment: It's absurd to make nominations in an area without being aware of the usual practice there. Add it is further not useful to make nominations for a country where you have no knowledge of the languages, on basic topics which can be expected to be seen to be very obviously notable if you did have the language skill. Pinging User:Tyw7 because they suggest above that pinging them is necessary for them to see comments in this AFD which they opened. --Doncram (talk) 04:03, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    As I said above, I nominated this in good faith as I think it fails WP:GEOLAND particularly the part that there needs to be more source than just stats. So far, none of the mountains listed had anything beyond just raw statics like it's height, location, etc. The foreign language version also lacks sufficient reference. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 12:38, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all - Named existence alone, conflicts with WP:NOTEVERYTHING -- DexterPointy (talk) 15:54, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • I disagree. Named mountains are not everything that exists. Things other than named mountains do exist, and we are not trying to include all of those other things. The purpose of that policy is to prevent you from listing every blade of grass in your garden or every grain of sand on the beach. It does not exist to prevent articles on huge mountains that are important landmarks. James500 (talk) 19:25, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      Then why does the guideline said: Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. Emphasis added. So the mountain needs to be named and have third-party sources with stuff beyond just stats and coordinates. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 19:35, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep all. Per WP:GEOLAND criterium 4: Named natural features. gidonb (talk) 14:49, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    And did you see the exception? "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. This includes mountains, lakes, streams, islands, etc. The number of known sources should be considered to ensure there is enough verifiable content for an encyclopedic article. If a Wikipedia article cannot be developed using known sources, information on the feature can instead be included in a more general article on local geography. For example, a river island with no information available except name and location should probably be described in an article on the river."
Can you find anything of the mountain beyond just stats and coordinates? This article goes against the very exception mentioned in that guideline. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 19:14, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It's right there in the sources. In the meantime I have fixed the coordinates and cleaned up the template clutter. Will add some more information later. To your first question and since you raise it yourself: it's difficult to miss your WP:bludgeoning on this page. In general, I view the combination of the indiscriminate nomination of 330 articles for deletion, the excessive templates, and the bludgeoning with excessive bold (that isn't in the source) as disruptive behavior. You say it bold, you say it time and time again, but that doesn't make it right. gidonb (talk) 01:53, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Correct me if I'm wrong but https://peakbook.org/en/peakbook-element/1863/en/Vestre+Hestl%C3%A6gerh%C3%B8e.html list just numbers about the mountain.
So as this https://stadnamn.kartverket.no/fakta/920927.
And http://www.norgeskart.no/#!/?zoom=4&lon=396722.00&lat=7197864.00&project=seeiendom&layers=1002,1015 is just a map.
Also, nobody seem to be countering my point about the named feature exception. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 06:15, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Most people here have countered your claims. After all the bludgeoning, "just numbers about the mountain" is how you frame essential information when you clearly have the losing hand. The sources provide information beyond "just numbers" (in our guideline "statistics") and it was there all along.

http://norgeskart.no/#!/?zoom=4&lon=396722.00&lat=7197864.00&project=seeiendom&layers=1002,1015 is just a map.

And nobody has countered that specific point. If you look at the above most just say yes it meets criteria 4 since it's a named feature. And my answer is yes it's a name feature but the references are just stats.

There are very few statistics here. You totally undermine your own claim. The guideline provides a possible exception to the rule in the form of river islands. A non-fortified and uninhabited river island can exemplify land forms that are more dynamic or less stable over time. A river island can even be flooded part of the year. A mountain does not quite fit this model. People will write about it, as proven in the sources. Governments and private enterprises provide information other than statistics, as you quote yourself above. gidonb (talk) 15:11, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Ref. "It's right there in the sources." : Exactly which (links please) sources goes to more than mere existence & trivia? -- DexterPointy (talk) 07:20, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Frankly I saw no trivia in any of the sources. I'm specifying the sourcing straight in the article that I have improved. This will provide more lasting value to Wikipedia users. If there is any trivia then obviously it should not go into our article. Unless only maybe under a title that warns that upcoming sentences are marginal, such as "cultural references". gidonb (talk) 11:46, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
What can be read straight of a map, only qualifies as trivia: longitude, latitude, elevation above sea level, location name, region name, etc.
According to this diff, you've only added one source, which is an external reference to this photo gallery.
Per WP:GEOLAND: "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist. This includes mountains, lakes, streams, islands, etc."
Considering that I can provide exact same trivial facts about my pile of underwear (longitude, latitude, elevation above sea level, location name, region name, etc.; and take pictures, making a photo gallery, too), then: Are you sure about your keep?
-- DexterPointy (talk) 12:57, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Since when does your self-selected difference define how many sources I have added to the article? Also, if you look at my answer to User:Tyw7 you would see that I claim that before adding and improving references this article was sourced to the degree that it should never have been AfDd. Furthermore, as part of a WP:BEFORE nominators and respondents need to carefully check what is in the sources and what other sources are out there. No sources needed to be added to the article to keep it per WP:NEXIST. What I've done is on and beyond. gidonb (talk) 13:48, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep all per WP:GEOLAND and well established precedent in WP:MAPOUTCOMES. Had a fraction of the time that so enthusiastically goes into bludgeoning this AFD been allocated to due dilligence, one would have noticed that Hestlægerhøy is a misspelling and Hestlægerhøe is correct. The nonchalant inclusion of "all the mountains listed at Category:Mountains_of_Oppland" is out of process. Sam Sailor 15:10, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep being a stub is not an argument for deletion. Wikipedia also functions as a gazetteer per WP:5P1, meeting WP:GNG is not necessary as long as the content is verifiable. If some of these really do have no additional information, a redirect to Mountains of Oppland (currently a redlink) or a more-specific area they are in would be appropriate. There's no way to do that analysis for 300+ mountains at AfD; I'd recommend an RFC on a WikiProject page. power~enwiki (π, ν) 23:25, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The word does exist and get hits when searched but some seem to be talking about other things entirely. The only Google News hit is something about RNA, which is clearly something very different. The Google Books hits are a little better: This is on topic and not written by Sheehan. It also throws up quite a lot of other books that are plausibly on topic but none of the first few find anything if you search inside the book for "Epicatalysis". Google Scholar shows a few people citing Sheehan and talking about his idea of Epicatalysis. There is this, written by people from ThermaWatts LLC (a company seeking to develop a product related to this idea) and published by MDPI (which has an interesting article). They say in their conclusion "Epicatalysis created a harvestable temperature difference. That, alone, is enough to prove we must move past laws". I am not sure if the laws they are so casually "moving past" are those of Thermodynamics but it doesn't sound good. Anyway, the total is only 15 hits in Google Scholar. That is not impressive. Even worse, one of those 15 looks like a hit in nature.com (encouraging) but is actually just somebody talking about Wikipedia's coverage in the comments (rather less encouraging).

There is no human career in which people get an automatic notability freebie just for existing, without having to achieve something noteworthy and receive reliable source coverage about them for it. But nothing here is a strong or encyclopedic notability claim, and the sourcing — which is far, far too dependent on primary sources and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other things, with virtually no evidence of any substantive coverage about him — is not even close to getting him over WP:GNG.

  • Comment I am very familiar with Warhammer 40k and will say that the Imperium is very important to the game's story and many playable armies are either directly tied to them or have broken off from them. That said I am only providing this information and I am unsure if it should have it's own page, be merged to a page where they have the history of the 40k universe, or straight up deleted. GameInfirmary Talk 02:25, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete : This very long and practically entirely unsourced text is probably the work of love of fans of the game. Nonetheless, the subject lacks independent notability, while the relative dearth of sources makes it impossible to merge into "Warhammer 40,000," since Wikipedia has no use for unsupported text, here or anywhere else. If we leave out the unsourced text (for which, I for one could not locate sources) we are left with a stub. -The Gnome (talk) 14:49, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
On sources : At first glance, the text seems adequately sourced but it's not. The Troke et al publication is an expanded rule book for the game itself and not related to the subject (moreover, it's as primary a source as they come); the Escapist review mentions the subject twice in the course of describing the game; The Mary Sue article is about the game's alleged fascism, mentioning the subject a couple of times as an example of supposedly a fascist setting; the Critical Hit piece describes itself as "A Beginner’s Guide to Warhammer 40K"; and so on. The only text that resembles a bona fide source is the Sequart article which talks about the alleged "Nietzschean" aspects of the Imperium. -The Gnome (talk) 14:49, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep As WP:NOTDIR says, "Wikipedia encompasses many lists of links to articles within Wikipedia that are used for internal organization or to describe a notable subject. In that sense, Wikipedia functions as an index or directory of its own content." This is a legitimate example of one such. XOR'easter (talk) 19:13, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Functioning as a directory of Wikipedia content is exactly the use of any index, which NOTDIR explicitly supports ("...Wikipedia functions as an index or directory of its own content."). So I don't see a way in which this "seems" to fail it. When clear language says exactly the opposite of what a nominator claims, I always have to wonder...whence their error? Not to mention when a nomination seems to contradict numerous guidelines and well-established practices (see, e.g., WP:LISTPURP, WP:CLN, WP:INDEXES), but does not even comment on that contradiction. postdlf (talk) 19:19, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep The point of WP:NOTDIR is that we shouldn't emulate the style of commercial directories, yellow pages, or sales catalogues. But that's not a general prohibition of indexes and lists. Per WP:CLN, these are valid and useful here. Andrew D. (talk) 21:42, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Haven't made up my mind about the breakfast foods page, but this seems like a fine navigational aid. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 22:08, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Multiple problems
  1. The scoping (i.e. "breakfast-related articles" in lead) is so loose that anything goes. It not only allows for anything eatable or drinkable (beer soup is already there), but really nearly everything (Cutlery, Microwave ovens, Slippers, ... ).
  2. Regarding "Wikipedia working as its own directory": Given the flat mesh structure WP is (it doesn't even qualify as a undirected graph), then the order of the present day is actually to simply search for whatever is being wanted.
    The idea that Wikipedia some day will even remotely succeed in providing some reasonable taxonomy & ontology of itself, is ... well, in an alternative universe.
    Editors may certainly benefit from keeping their own "private" lists or directories (designed & scoped in anyway they see fit), but as far a readers (i.e. the real audience of WP) goes, then the interlinking of articles in the articles (incl. "see also"-sections) is what really may matter.
    Saying: Things with potential negative value to readers, should not be kept article space for the sake of editors, when editors do have other options.

  • Delete contrary to the nominator, all the sources are actually secondary sources. They are sources created by scholars reflecting on the life and work of Hintze, with the exception of the World Cat entry. However generally the bios we have here do not add to the level of sourcing to show notability. A bio like we have of Hintze will be created for the subject of any primary source collection held by a university, but having such a collection does not per se make the subject notable. The entry on the LDS Church in Greece actually focuses on others more than Hintze, and it does not actually go so far as to say Hintze was the first to preach in Greece. It also seems to indicate only that he shared the gospel in a private setting with two individuals, so the use of the term "preach" may or may not be merited. In the context of what Hintze actually did in Greece, his role there was not enough to make him notable. This is very different than say Joseph William Billy Johnson in Ghana, who built up the Church in various ways over 50 years, or Rendell N. Mabey in Nigeria, who was along with his wife, and another couple, among the first to officially preach the gosple, although Anthony Obinna had been doing it for years. Building on both the work of Obinna and others like him, and the receptivity of others they met, especially in Enugu, during their year in Nigeria they baptized over 1700. Still, I didnt create an article on Mabey until I realized he had served in the Utah State House of Representatives and the Utah State Senate. If his work and later published writings on his work in Nigeria was not enough to make him clearly notable, Hintze "preaching" without a single baptism in Greece makes no impact. To put things in perspective there were more Latter-day Saints in Nigeria when Mabey left, than there have been in Greece in total over the last 150 years, at least if we only include those who took up residency in Greece.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:44, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The subject person being "the first missionary to preach in Greece" for the Mormons one would expect an abundance of sources about him, yet abundant the sources are certainly not. As a matter of fact, the page itself of the official Mormon branch of Greece dedicated to the history of the LDS in the country does not once refer to Hintze. We have no sources for notability. -The Gnome (talk) 15:38, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge into Air Queensland. Queensland Pacific Airways is as notable as any defunct airline, and there are plenty of them on Wikipedia, but unless this stub has a realistic chance of being substantially expanded, then it's better to consolidate the information on the subject by merging.

Not seeing any notability for a fringe party leader. At best merge. Slatersteven (talk) 16:25, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Do not delete Merging is highly *not* recommended. Nor is deletion. No longer a fringe party, but major interest to Albertans due to Liberal Trudeau federal government, and recent news at July 2018 about equalization not being renegotiated for Alberta. This is of major interest to Albertans at this time, Also applicable due to July 2018 merger with Freedom_Conservative_Party_of_Alberta and the rise of Derek_Fildebrandt in the Alberta legislature and as leader of this new party. Deleting Bart Hampton would remove a substantial link of explanatory history that would bridge the history from the Separation Party of Alberta to the Freedom_Conservative_Party_of_Alberta.

  • Delete. For a former party leader, he has a very low profile. I can find references to confirm that he was the party leader such as [4], but I can't find an interview with him or any background such as where he lives and what his educational and work background is. A politician who has never been elected can still be notable under WP:GNG, but I don't think he is. Eastmain (talkcontribs) 18:43, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete and then recreate a redirect to Separation Party of Alberta. Minor political party leaders are not handed an automatic notability freebie as a standalone topic just because they exist — if you have to rely on primary sources, blogs and glancing namechecks of his existence to write anything more than "he exists", because there's no reliable source coverage that is substantively about him for the purposes of getting him over WP:GNG, then he just gets a redirect to the party and not a standalone biography. Fildebrandt is actually an MLA and actually has reliable source coverage about him, so he's in a completely different notability league — but the fact that he has an article does not reify into an inclusion freebie for his predecessor, if his predecessor doesn't actually meet the required tests of serving in the legislature and/or having real reliable source media coverage about him to support an article.

Poorly referenced WP:BLP of a single-station television news director. As always, this is not an "inherently" notable role that guarantees a Wikipedia article just because he exists, but the referencing here isn't cutting it in terms of getting him over WP:GNG -- nothing is properly footnoted, but instead there's simply a contextless linkfarm of external links in the references section, comprising a YouTube clip of the newscast's own self-created advertisement for itself, a news article which glancingly namechecks the subject's existence a single time in the process of not being about him, a news article whose only connection to Zehnder is that the bylined author happens to have been a former colleague of his, and five dead links whose content is unretrievable because the actual citation details (title, date, etc.) were never provided to dress up the naked URLs (and at least one of which would be a non-notability-supporting primary source even if it were retrievable.)

Completely unreferenced BLP of an animator, whose only apparent claim of notability is that he and his work exist. As always, existing does not guarantee a person a Wikipedia article in and of itself -- he needs to be reliably sourceable to media coverage which verifies a noteworthy achievement, such as winning a major award for his work or being the creator of a notable animated work, but nothing here satisfies either part of that equation.

WP:BLP of a political campaign manager and non-winning election candidate, not well-sourced enough to clear WP:NPOL or WP:GNG. As always, neither of these are "inherently" notable things -- a campaign manager might be able to keep an article if he could be sourced well enough to clear GNG, but is not guaranteed an article just because he exists, and a person has to win the election, not just run in it, to clinch notability from an election -- but the referencing here, which consists of his initial candidacy announcement, the raw table of election results and a glancing namecheck of his existence in coverage of the MP he was campaign manager for, is not enough to make him notable.

  • Keep It is indexed in both main mathematical bibliographic databases (MathSciNet, Zentralblatt MATH). Everybody in the editorial board is a highly notable mathematician. The journal is cited in papers published in leading journals of the scope of the present journal (many papers can be found in Google Scholar with two-digit citation numbers, examples exist with 72 or 76 citations; Zentralblatt MATH writes about this journal: 87 Publications have been cited 225 times). --Tudor987 (talk) 13:27, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Quotation from Erdős: --Tudor987 (talk) 13:27, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The success of Geombinatorics is due to many colleagues from all over the world who have for ten years contributed their thoughts and their aspirations to this quarterly. Some maturity manifested itself when Mathematical Reviews and Zentralblatt für Mathematik came on board and pronounced Geombinatorics to be their “publication of high density” (which meant that all Geombinatorics articles in their final form would be reviewed).

  • Comment Please note that that number of citations would not even be enough to make a single academic notable, let alone a whole journal. As for the other arguments, please see the nom (and my response on my talk page to your earlier query) on why these arguments are invalid. Thanks. --Randykitty (talk) 13:46, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
For your first argument, Wikipedia:Notability (academic journals) Criterion 2 says: The journal is frequently cited by other reliable sources. Then, The only reasonably accurate way of finding citations to journals are via bibliographic databases and citation indices, such as [...] Google Scholar, or [...] MathSciNet. And, If a journal meets any of the following criteria, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources, it qualifies for a stand-alone article. If I understand well, this means that citations are indeed relevant.
My other problem is that selective database is not well-defined. As far as I know, these two mathematical databases do not index non-trusted journals. --Tudor987 (talk) 13:56, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Citations are indeed relevant, but if a whole journal garners a number of citations that wouldn't even make a single person notable, then we have a problem. As for selective, those two math databases strive to be comprehensive, that is, they will include any mathematics journal (except obvious predatory ones). Other databases, like Scopus for example, select the best journals from among "trusted journals" and therefore are selective. MathSciNet and zbMath are not selective in that sense. --Randykitty (talk) 14:11, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Citation counts are going to be low for pure mathematics; everyone involved seems to be a notable mathematician, so this looks to be another of those cases where merging to the publisher would be the reasonable thing to do if the article can't stand on its own. XOR'easter (talk) 15:42, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Alexander Soifer. The only real notability guideline we have for journals is GNG, and by that criterion I can't find enough in-depth coverage of this journal to justify a separate article, even though this one is linked from some two dozen of our other articles. Having lots of incoming links used to be a notability criterion long ago but not in recent years. [5] and [6] are in-depth but not independent, and there are some independent mentions of the journal in connection with the Dănuț Marcu affair but not really in-depth ones. Citation count is a stupid way to evaluate professional mathematicians (if needed I can work at digging up statements from the professional societies saying so) and equally a stupid way to evaluate pure mathematics journals. And my understanding is that this is Soifer's personal journal (for instance it is called that by Ziegler in doi:10.1365/s13291-014-0101-y), so the article on him is the only plausible redirect target. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:40, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

      • Same for me. --Randykitty (talk) 20:48, 29 July 2018 (UTC) And BTW, as far as I am concerned, citation counts are a stupid way to evaluate any academic, not just mathematicians. The only evaluation that is even more stupid is looking at the impact factors of the journals where they publish... But the way we talk about sources on WP, we have to take citations into account because some people will argue that if an article has been cited by 3 other sources that means this article (or its author) meets GNG... --Randykitty (talk) 07:53, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Dear ZO, thank you for letting me know that the page for the ROADEX Project is being considered for deletion. It probably is my fault – I am a novice in these matters. I wrote the original page in 2010 and it sat happily on Wikipedia until I tried to bring it up to date this month. That said, a lot has happened with ROADEX since 2010. The EU part-funded projects ended in 2012 and ROADEX is now being self-funded by the Partners as the ROADEX NETWORK. My aim was (1) to make a historic record of the ROADEX project up to 2012, and then (2) to create a new page called the ROADEX NETWORK for the works done 2012-2018. These pages were published this month and Wikipedia has already suggested that I merge the new ROADEX NETWORK page into the ROADEX project page as they essentially deal with the same collaboration. I am planning to do this, and to add citations to the combined page to make it a better document. I am also obtaining permission from the ROADEX Lead Partner to permit Wikipedia to use ROADEX data. I have written a very brief COI on my talk page. I hope that this helps. Ron Ronmun (talk) 10:23, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

From what I found, the subject has been mentioned in a few media reports as being a part of musician Alicia Keys’s management/a business partner (she is reportedly a childhood friend of Keys), and received trivial mention (e.g., the one cited on the WP page) as a contributor to a 2002 Keys song. It was reported in 2016, that Keys had changed management and the subject, who was a co-manager, became her manager. Notability isn’t inherited; subject doesn’t meet notability for mentions of her association with a notable subject.

There is a review of a record she released in 2007. Apart from that, there doesn’t appear to be sufficient reliable third party coverage of the subject in detail/non-trivially or as separate from her aforementioned association to Keys.

Under the general notability guideline - (A) Does not meet WP:GNG: "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 or list. "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail". (B) Does not meet WP:NRV: "No subject is automatically or inherently notable merely because it exists: The evidence must show the topic has gained significant independent coverage or recognition, and that this was not a mere short-term interest, nor a result of promotional activity or indiscriminate publicity". (C) Does not meet WP:SUSTAINED: "If reliable sources cover a person only in the context of a single event, and if that person otherwise remains, or is likely to remain, a low-profile individual, we should generally avoid having a biographical article on that individual."

Does not meet any of the WP:MUSICBIO criteria under Notability: Music guideline - e.g.,: "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself." Lapadite (talk) 12:00, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Note that the article was tagged with notability issue the day after it was created (May 11, 2009), as has since remained tagged. Moreover, the creation of the article may seem promotional as it is the only contribution from the editor who created it unsourced, and needless to say, the notability issue has since not been addressed with sources.

  • Comment At the moment, there's virtually nothing to merge. The article consists entirely of unsourced assertions combined with directly sourced repetitions of the subject's online musings about his life, any of which could be fictional (as though raconteurs don't ever embellish their stories!), and bearing the weight that the subject himself has assigned to these details (as though any third party would mention in a bio that its subject put cotton in his ears as a child). Someone even just added the assertion that the subject is a Yankees fan, representing WP:OR by the editor that this is the case based on noticing that the subject wears a Yankees cap.

  • Comment I do agree with what you've said Largoplazo, and I suppose I should clarify my !vote, since I've utterly failed to say anything. The sources are clearly insufficient for any substantial claim (independence also questionable), but I think they do establish (a) existence and (b) identity.

  • Comment. I do not much care to protect these articles, but this one is better than most of its type. It is not the case that there are no reliable sources that discuss the subject directly; there are references from relatively reliable sources such as Sankei, plus relatively reliable tabloid sources like ZakZak and Nikkan Sports, and apparently even some sources in English, which discuss the subject in detail. I am not sure whether the porn-related stuff is notable (probably not), but the singing, writing, and coverage of legal trouble may be. The drug charges listed are much more noteworthy for a celebrity (?) in Japan than they might be in other places, given the harsh drug rules there. Dekimasuよ! 02:14, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge with article on History of Crayola crayons. This is a historical article, and it may make sense to have this timeline in the article on History of Crayola crayons. Vorbee (talk) 08:01, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This article is about the company's history, not just the crayons, and we're talking about adding the full contents of a sizeable article to an even bigger article. That doesn't make any sense. Keep them separate, since they serve different purposes, and would be unwieldy if combined. P Aculeius (talk) 12:49, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

P Aculeius (talk) 12:59, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Partial merges to History of Crayola crayons (and Crayola for the non-crayon stuff). I agree with Vorbee about the benefits of a merge. Furthermore, there is a lot more genuine history here (albeit largely unreferenced) than there is in History of Crayola crayons, which is mostly stuffed with cruft that needs to be removed. I have suggested stubbing that back to quite a short article. Adding in some of the information here would build it back up in a more genuinely historical manner. Ideally the merges should be done more as prose rather than as lists and the merges should avoid most of the big lists of colours. That said, if we are to have a few lists of colours then the format here is infinitely preferable to the unverifiable multicoloured tables in the other articles. While product range introductions and discontinuations are good content, individual colour introductions and "retirements" are generally not notable and these should not be merged except in exceptional cases. All we need is a note saying something like When Crayola discontinues manufacture of a colour they term this "retirement" and then give a reference to prove this. That reference will presumably also provide the complete list of introduced and retired colours which should be enough to keep the fans happy without us needing to list them all. --DanielRigal (talk) 19:03, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. I'm convinced that this was nominated too soon. However, it's been over two weeks, and of the original four main items listed when this was first nominated, three have been deleted and one was kept; that kept item has two subitems, one of which was nominated for and is still at AfD. While I'm sympathetic to the "this is dependent on the other articles" argument for keep, I don't think it convincingly holds water anymore. ~ Amory (utc) 15:46, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Too soon to say. If the rest get deleted at AfD (and I think that most of them will) then this should go too but lets not prejudge that. Also, should this be a list article and not a category? --DanielRigal (talk) 23:18, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • I agree. @Lojbanist:, you really had two reasonable options here (and I'd like to hear why you didn't go either route): bundle this list together with the other lists in one AFD, or wait until those are concluded to determine whether to proceed with this one. Starting this dependent AFD separately while the others are still pending just wastes time and causes a potential mess of inconsistent results. I suggest withdraw this and then wait, but as DanielRigal said, you can't base a deletion argument on what may or may not happen in other AFDs; only on what has happened. postdlf (talk) 23:33, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Crayola is a brand and the colours are products so this essentially breaches WP:NOTCATALOGUE. As each list entry is also in the process of AfD (and my preference is to delete all), this list of lists would end up becoming redundant. Ajf773 (talk) 10:18, 25 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Agree with postdlf that it is Too Soon. The other articles in that list may be deleted, but by WP:CRYSTAL, this can't be deleted until those other articles are. This should definitely be revisited in the next 2-3 months if they are deleted. However, given that this list is so short regardless of whether or not the other articles are deleted, a 2nd nomination could also have the reason Too short of a list.

There are a lot of trivial mentions in the vein of "producer Jesse Rodriguez was there" or "Jesse Rodriguez says X", but very little of actual substance.

Keep. In the golf notability criteria, the fourth qualification is: "They have won at least one recognized amateur golf tournament at the national or international level". Lin won the 2017 Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship which is organised in conjunction with the Masters Tournament and The R&A, who are the organisers of The Open Championship. Starting in 2018, the winner receives an invitation to both the Masters and The Open Championship. Lin is therefore the first player to gain that invitation which enhances the prestige and status of the Asia-Pacific to the same "elite" level as the U.S. Amateur, British Amateur and European Amateur championships. I would agree that Asia-Pacific winners before 2017 might not share Lin's distinction unless they have satisfied other notability criteria. As for the GNG, Lin's achievements in winning an elite competition and taking part in the two majors indicate that wider coverage exists and further verification can be found. Thanks.

  • Weak Delete - So there is a great deal of coverage on Cube26. Most of it is removed for failing not reliable or not independent. Pretty much of all of the remainder fails because it is almost entirely talking about its takeover or funding, with only a couple of lines devoted to the actual company. NDTV Source (also has another article with link inside) however gives a reasonable amount of coverage, seemingly satisfying the various criteria. There are also some reasonable sources discussing one product of its, but again not really mentioning the company, which I viewed as sort of a counter-part issue of O1E.

  2. An interview from 2004 on the indie film blog Film Threat.
  3. The State Journal-Register blurb (not a feature, as claimed) which was entirely written by Brookens himself in 2008.
  4. A list of the films at the 2008 Route 66 Film Festival in which his name is mentioned; again, no coverage.
  5. A discussion of his film "Art of Pain" on a non-notable blog called "Culture Blues".
  6. A link to ArtofPainMovie.com, self-published source.
  7. A link to his one submission on Funny Or Die; primary source.
  8. A repeat of the same State Journal-Register blurb.
That's it. Not one of them is a reliable secondary source that provides in-depth coverage of the subject, with the possible exception of the Film Threat interview from 2004, but if that's all there is, that's not lasting coverage, and he obviously falls far short of what's required in WP:GNG. Don't even look at WP:FILMMAKER because he doesn't even come close to any of the 4 requirements there. So, no, there is no "misunderstanding" on the nominator's part - this is a non-notable filmmaker without significant coverage in reliable sources. Sorry. Maybe someday, but certainly WP:TOOSOON at the moment. Amsgearing (talk) 18:11, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The " The State Journal-Register blurb" isn't credited (I think you may have mistaken the picture title for the author credit), but in any case I agree, it's not RS.96.127.242.226 (talk) 23:04, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Well, what I meant was, it's obviously a boilerplate list of questions that was sent to Brookens, and his replies to those questions are 99% of the piece. Hence, he essentially wrote the piece himself. Amsgearing (talk) 17:25, 1 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Voice actors are not handed an automatic inclusion freebie just because they've had roles — the notability test is not the having of roles per se, but the depth and range and breadth of reliable source coverage that they did or did not receive for having roles. But a profile in an IMDb-like directory of voice actors is not a reliable or notability-assisting source. Bearcat (talk) 18:26, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and WP:TROUT nominator: Oppose bad-faith nomination: Speedy keep: WP:BEFORE was not followed here. I found and added links to two interviews, on top of the existing one, within a few minutes whilst having no previous involvement with the article. WP:GNG is now definitely passed (though the article needs significant improvement). Modernponderer (talk) 22:18, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
These WP:INTERVIEWS are primary sources so of very little use in showing notability. GNG requires in depth coverage in reliable secondary sources. One of the interviews in what seems to be a defunct blog was conducted by another voice actor who worked on the same animation films as she did so unlikely to be independent. If you have any sources that actually support notability I'd be happy to self trout but those do not made the grade by a long chalk. Dom from Paris (talk) 05:24, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Your own link explains that it's a matter of controversy as to whether interviews are primary or secondary. I'd also add that one of the links in your original nomination, WP:NACTOR, contradicts said nomination as well: Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.
Given these facts, as well as the depth of coverage in said interviews, my trout here is only strengthened. Modernponderer (talk) 05:46, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The "in a nutshell" part at the top of the page explains it better than I can. Interviews generally count as primary sources, but commentary added to interviews by a publication can sometimes count as secondary-source material. Interviews may be published in reliable publications, but that does not make primary source material contained in them acceptable to cite claims for which Wikipedia requires secondary sources.. Hope that helps. Also repeated use of the meme trout can make you look a little silly if there are other users, especially very experienced ones that have !voted delete. I don't know if it's supposed to be funny or rude. Better to use it sparingly or the joke wears thin and starts to become rude. Dom from Paris (talk) 23:33, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You claim you're a very experienced user, yet you haven't even mentioned the banner right above it that clearly states that the page is NOT a policy or guideline.
Also I don't see anyone else commenting here after me, so I'm not sure what "other users" you are referring to. I only see a single other comment made before my arguments and expansion of the article. Modernponderer (talk) 05:09, 13 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Please read WP:PERESSAY but of course essays do not have the same weight as policy and guidelines but they do help in deletion arguments. If you want to find a policy that backs up this essay try WP:NOR which says in the footnotes Further examples of primary sources include...interviews and WP:N says "Sources"[2] should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability.. Hope that helps. Dom from Paris (talk) 05:31, 13 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I certainly agree that "proper" secondary sources should be preferred wherever possible. I cannot agree with the notion that articles should be outright deleted because only sources of a slightly lesser calibre (still reliable and independent) have been found. Modernponderer (talk) 06:18, 13 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
if you step back and think about what you are saying you are basically advocating using primary sources to show notability when secondary ones don't exist which is against policy and guidelines. Anyway we will have to agree to disagree no point in taking this discussion further. Dom from Paris (talk) 06:39, 13 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid you don't get to just end the discussion after misrepresenting both my statements and policy. Nowhere have I agreed, nor is it clearly stated, that interviews are purely primary sources (your sneaky incomplete excerpt from WP:NOR notwithstanding). THAT is the real bottom line here, and now this debate can end I suppose. Modernponderer (talk) 07:44, 13 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Interviews, a class of source that represents the subject speaking about herself rather than being spoken about by other people, are NOT notability-clinching sources in and of themselves. They can be used for supplementary verification of stray facts after GNG has already been covered off by stronger sources, but they do not confer a pass of GNG in and of themselves if they are the strongest sources on offer. So no, the nominator is not getting trouted for this. Bearcat (talk) 12:05, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You know what? I've removed the trout. But not for the reasons both of you are claiming – rather, it's pretty obvious from the extended discussion that this nomination was made in bad faith, and that you are supporting this as a fellow deletionist no matter what.
If either of you wants to have your arguments taken seriously you might want to cite policies and guidelines (NOT essays) that support your exact point of view, as opposed to some variation of it. Modernponderer (talk) 13:45, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I am not anybody's "fellow deletionist". I am an editor with a correct understanding of how Wikipedia's inclusion rules work, which is that nobody in any field of occupation ever gets a notability freebie just for existing if their notability claim is not reliably sourceable to substantive WP:GNG-eligible media coverage about them. We're an encyclopedia, not a free directory of everybody who exists and has a job — articles get kept or deleted on the basis of whether they properly demonstrate that the subject passes defined notability and sourceability standards, not on the basis of some mythical deletionism vs. inclusionism war. Bearcat (talk) 13:56, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Deletionism vs. inclusionism is not mythical – it is a fundamental, ideological disagreement that is pervasive on Wikipedia. But there is little point in continuing this discussion until such time as one of you has provided the requisite direct policy quotation(s), and not just your opinion of what notability means here. Modernponderer (talk) 14:15, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, yes it is mythical, because it's not an accurate reflection of what actually happens on Wikipedia. There is no "deletionist" faction that believes in marauding through fields of solid articles to kill them just because they subscribe to some imaginary ideology of deleting stuff for the sake of deleting stuff, for starters — stuff gets deleted for valid reasons, such as non-compliance with our inclusion and sourcing rules, and not just because somebody who likes deleting good stuff for shits and giggles kidnapped it. Sure, some people want our inclusion standards loosened up to the point where everybody and everything that exists at all is entitled to have an article that can never be deleted for any reason — but having no inclusion standards is not a viable approach to building an encyclopedia. Lines have to be drawn somewhere between what is or is not appropriate for inclusion here — but while there may be some disagreement about where those lines should be drawn in some cases, that is not the same thing as what people mean when they talk about "inclusionism vs. deletionism", because again, there is no such thing as any group on Wikipedia that believes in tearing down good stuff just because a delete function exists.
Secondly, please read up on why "that's only an essay" is not a valid argument in an AFD discussion: note, in particular, the part where it explicitly states that "we have policies which tell us what to do and why to do it, and guidelines to help us with how to do it." Notability standards and reliable sourcing rules are not less binding just because they're spelled out in guideline essays rather than formal policy statements: they exists as clarifiers of how policy plays out in practice, and thus are equally binding in the absence of a compelling reason why a special exception to them would be warranted.
The bottom line is, this is how Wikipedia works: the baseline for inclusion is that the person has a strong and credible notability claim, backed up by a WP:GNG-satisfying volume of reliable source coverage about her to verify that the notability claim and the article content are actually true. Both of those conditions have to be met, because if reliable sources were not necessary as long as something that sounds notable was asserted, then people would be able to get into Wikipedia by self-declaring themselves as the presidents of unrecognized micronations, or by claiming to have had charting hits as a musician that they didn't really have, and on and so forth — and if a notability claim weren't necessary as long as any form of sourcing whatsoever was present, then people could game our rules by getting their friends to conduct fake "interviews" with them on YouTube or by self-creating their own "coverage" on a crowdsourced "citizen journalism" website. So Wikipedia has rules about what counts as a valid notability claim, and what types of sources are acceptable support for it, for the purposes of making a person eligible to have a Wikipedia article — because as a platform that people regularly try to use and abuse for publicity, we have to have and enforce standards of notability and sourcing if we want to hold the line on being an encyclopedia instead of just a social networking site. Bearcat (talk) 16:09, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Instead of taking my advice, you posted a long rant. Nevertheless, I will address a few of your points, if only to deter others from believing in this nonsense.
  1. It is to the obvious advantage of the deletionist faction to claim it does not exist. If the amount of salvageable encyclopedic content lost this way were ever recognized, there would be protests throughout Wikipedia, swiftly followed by administrator action.
  2. The reason the claim "it's only an essay" is 100% valid is because essays do NOT represent consensus. There is no requirement, in fact, for them to represent anything more than the individual opinion of ONE editor. It is not remotely uncommon for essays to outright contradict established policy (and though some of these are userfied, not all are)! If such an editor participated in a discussion like this, their opinion would be weighed as but one !vote – yet because they wrote an "essay", it is suddenly worth much more?
  3. Finally, and this is the real issue that destroys the case for deletion of this page: these interviews are from reliable and independent sources. You have tried to conflate them with hypothetical "interviews conducted by friends" and "citizen journalism", knowing full well that this is not the case here.
So please: either post the direct quotation(s) from policy that support your side, or WP:DROPTHESTICK. Modernponderer (talk) 17:25, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  1. The amount of "salvageable" encyclopedic content that gets deleted in a year adds up to a molehill next to the Mount Everest of garbage that gets correctly deleted for not meeting our requirements at all. And since deletion does not prevent somebody from recreating an article again if they can do a better job than the first version did, that molehill amounts to a non-existent problem — it is not our job to keep a badly written and badly sourced article just because improvement might be possible, it is the job of the person who wants the article to exist to make it good enough to get kept in the first place.
  2. Wikipedia guidelines do represent consensus, and do not represent the individual opinions of just one person. User essays can be individual opinions, and as such do not carry much weight in policy and procedure discussions — but formal Wikipedia guideline essays, which are not the same thing as user essays, do represent the weight of consensus.
  3. It doesn't matter what type of source the interview appears in — the issue with interviews is the question of who's doing the speaking. People do not get over a Wikipedia inclusion guideline by talking about themselves — for a source to count toward getting a person over GNG, it has to represent other people who are not Saffron Henderson talking about her in the third person. Sources in which Saffron Henderson is talking about herself in the first person can be used for supplementary verification of stray facts after GNG has already been covered off by third person sourcing, but do not carry a GNG pass in and of themselves if they're the best sources on offer. To assist passage of GNG, a source must be written in the third person by somebody other than the subject herself. (And no, the fact that somebody else transcribed her words in the process of laying out the article does not cover that off — because it's still her own words being transcribed.)
  4. You have already been pointed to all of the policy and guideline documents necessary to demonstrate that every word I have written in this discussion is one hundred per cent correct. Again, guidelines are not the same thing as user essays: guidelines do not represent individual opinions, but rather do represent the weight of established Wikipedia consensus. Notability has to be covered off by reliable sourcing, that's not even up for debate here. But interviews are not notability-assisting sources, because they represent the subject talking about herself — they are fine as verifiers of additional fact after notability has already been covered off by the more correct class of sourcing, but they do not make notability in and of themselves if they're the only class of sourcing being used. Bearcat (talk) 18:08, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
As Bearcat so patiently points out this essay explains the policy and guidelines that says 1/ secondary sources are needed and 2/why interviews are not secondary sources. I think that you should take your own advice about dropping the stick.Dom from Paris (talk) 19:16, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
User:Domdeparis and User:Bearcat, I am indeed dropping out of this discussion now. Let it be known, however, that this is because each of you has blatantly lied here at least once (cutting out a highly unfavorable portion of a policy quote as I pointed out before, and now stating that essays represent consensus when even the template at the top of the essay under discussion very clearly states that they do not). I am unsure why this type of conduct continues to be tolerated, but sadly I am not in a position to pursue this any further at this time. Modernponderer (talk) 19:25, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Sourcing is a little hard to find, and the results tend to be a small amount of material over a wide variety of sources. Nevertheless, I think there is enough there to put together an article that can comply with our BLP policies. I've added two book citations to help move things along. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 21:20, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I checked out the book sources and the Deformed and Destructive Beings is really a passing mention that says the more accomplished Geena Davis in the original; lookalike Saffron Henderson in the sequel and in the The Gorehound's Guide to Splatter Films of the 1980s she is listed in 2 cast lists and talks about her without being named as a "stand-in" for Geena Davis who was maybe "above horror films at this point in time". I can't really see this adding to her notability to be honest. Dom from Paris (talk) 10:12, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That was kind of my point - the sourcing is lots of publications, but only a few sentences in each, so it's a marginal case. Another way of looking at it, when consulting alternatives to deletion, is to redirect somewhere. But there's no obvious target to redirect as she's had her fingers in so many pies (so to speak). That generally leaves "keep" as the only option left. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 10:54, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The trouble is that there are a lot of actors (voice and otherwise) that have been knocking around for years so they have a long list of credits and have a few interviews in trade or niche magazines but as they have never really made the big time there is no real in depth coverage. As she comes from a show biz family I think we could redirect to this section Bill_Henderson_(Canadian_singer)#Personal on her father's page that mentions her and if she ever gets that big role then the page can be expanded. Dom from Paris (talk) 12:51, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. A careful reading of NOR shows that there's a context in which interviews can be considered primary sources. There's also context where they shouldn't. I think on balance there's enough here, especially as there's far too much for delete IMHO and, as Richie says, no obvious redirect target. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 15:28, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    • Keep - Subject clears WP:GNG, as he has got "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". As of now, all of the sources present in the article are reliable, so no issues on that front. The book, the magazine article and the french review make for significant coverage that is independent of the subject, as well as the news article from Diário Notícias Madeira. This source[10] does have a very significant intro on the artists preceding the interview. Sources as this[11] or the documentary (both on big public TV channels) do show his relevance on the field of Portuguese hip-hop. The article still requires clean up and some expanding using the provided sources but alas, AFD is not clean up. A WP:BEFORE would have been appreciated, though.

Delete wow, these sources are truly rough, even after being filled in. Sources I'm finding - Ottawa Sun profile, sponsored content, several mentions in the Ottawa Citizen with one profile of their 20th anniversary, and a mention in the National Post. Some of their volunteers have received a governmental award. Their media page is also a mess of local news articles/broadcasts where their founders/volunteers were mentioned or made a comment.

Run-of-the-mill company. No sources. » Shadowowl | talk 17:04, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - I thought this would be a reasonable AfD given the article, but it turns out there are a number of sources as well as one that indicates there is also a TV show - an argument that a good WP:BEFORE check has to check foreign-based articles in both languages. Sources (in no particular order) include: Source 1, Source 2, Source 3, Source 4, Source 5. There are others that a quick look can find. I reckon at least 3 of these tick the boxes (obviously my knowledge of german news sources isn't widespread). Nosebagbear (talk) 23:07, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment Equally, there's an argument for a good old check on the relevant WP:NCORP guidelines (which have been recently revised) and required "intellectually independent" references. None of the references you've provided meet this requirement. HighKing++
    • Comment: In the TV show Frag doch mal die Maus Bäckerei Josef Hinkel and Bäckerei Michael Hinkel are two of nine bakeries from Düsseldorf which take part in baking a gingerbread house: “Bäckerei Josef Hinkel, Hercules Vollkorn- und Mühlenbäckerei, Bäckerei Pass, Bäckerei Schüren, Bäckerei Kapust, Stadtbäcker Westerhorstmann, Bäckerei Behmer, Bäckerei Michael Hinkel und die Bäckerei Puppe.” [12] --AlternativesLebensglück (talk) 13:44, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The sources identified by Nosebagbear and added to the article by Amorymeltzer Eastmain are not "intellectually independent" and therefore fail WP:ORGIND. This rp-online.de reference repeats a post on the company's Facebook page (PRIMARY source) and fails ORGIND. This backwelt.de reference has no attributed journalist and is simply an ad or announcement for a TV show with a photo of Josef Hinkel. The company is a mere mention-in-passing with no in-depth information. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH. The tonight.de reference is a local guide to someone's "5 favorite shops in Dusseldorf" and provides a profile of the Hinkels and some of the products but does not provide any in-depth information on the company and fails WP:CORPDEPTH. The ekathimerini.com reference relies entirely on an interview with Stavros whose bread is available in the Hinkel bakery and also relies on interview/quotation from Hinkel. It contains no intellectually independent information or analysis and fails WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND. Finally, the derwesten.de reference is an ad for "kiffer krust" bread (made with hemp) which was presented on the bakery's Facebook page. Fails both WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND. Overall, it appears that the Hinkel Bakery is popular and much loved in Dusseldorg for its excellent bread but that doesn't translate to an organization that meets the criteria for notability. Topic fails GNG and WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 20:56, 15 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is just a small local bakery which is not well-known outside Düsseldorf. All the newspaper reports are from Düsseldorf. --AlternativesLebensglück (talk) 13:44, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Two of the newspapers reports are just reproductions of a facebook entries of the Hinkel bakery which were reprinted in the newspaper which advertise a new kind of bread with marihuana seeds. Baking Bread: Düsseldorfer Bäckerei verkauft "Kiffer-Kruste", rp-online.de (Bakery in Düsseldorf sells "marihuana smoker crust"); „Baking Bread“: Düsseldorfer Bäckerei verkauft „Kiffer-Kruste“ mit Hanfsamen und Hanföl, bakery Düsseldorf from Düsseldorf sells "marihuana smoker crust") The writing style is advertising and not neutral. Entry on Facebook
Tonight is just an online portal of Rheinische Post which isn't published in print. Five bakeries from Düsseldorf are mentioned: Bulle, Hinkel, isabella, Puppe and Terbuyken. ',
The TV show Frag doch mal die Maus shows a short documentary film about baking a gingerbread house. Nine local bakeries from Düsseldorf were involved: Josef Hinkel, Michael Hinkel which belong to the founder of Hinkel bakery and seven other bakeries, Hercules, Pass, Schüren, Kapust, Westerhorstmann, Behmer and Puppe. (“Beteiligt sind: Bäckerei Josef Hinkel, Hercules Vollkorn- und Mühlenbäckerei, Bäckerei Pass, Bäckerei Schüren, Bäckerei Kapust, Stadtbäcker Westerhorstmann, Bäckerei Behmer, Bäckerei Michael Hinkel und die Bäckerei Puppe.”) Bäckerei means bakery. [14], Backwelt is not a newspaper, but an online portal for bakeries.

http://www.ekathimerini.com/214045/article/ekathimerini/community/award-winning-stavros-evangelous-smyrnaean-bread-proves-a-hit-in-dusseldorf deals with a Greek baker who works at the bakery.

    • Response True, but just to point out that you haven't pointed to any policies to support your argument. WP:GNG and WP:NCORP are the guidelines for corporations/organizations and your link above fails since it is not significant coverage and isn't even about the bakery but about one of the bakers.

Dromomania[edit]

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

Spent a bit doing some research on this and so far as I can tell, this is a pseudo-science fringe-theory type nonsense article. The alternate name "clinical travel addiction" brings up even less than "Dromomania" and scholarly papers give zilch (aside from a footnote in one paper.) Google results in multiple languages bring up a lot of nonsense and circular references and despite several claims that this is in the DSM, after looking for it myself, I can find no evidence that Dromomania or it's various names is a notable or real affliction and it certainly isn't in the DSM. This appears to be more like a sensational Buzzfeed-esque headline than anything encyclopedic. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 20:08, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete My edits were what prompted the deletion in the first place. I can confirm dromomania is not in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual. The term was popularized by Mad Travelers (2000), which is a biography and not a scientific work. I suppose it's not forever? I'm still kind of rooting for dromomania because it's so bizarre :) Maybe the article can be reintroduced if the term becomes so popular to be included in dictionaries. Contains Sulfites (talk) 22:03, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sources exist a long time before that. The case mentioned (from the 19th century) appears to be more like dissociative fugue, which is still recognised for now, but the definition encompasses both that and wanderlust; could it be that it was once recognised as a disorder but is now not? I don't think it's an exact match for either so redirect would be misleading, and notability is not temporary. Peter James (talk) 22:12, 14 July 2018 (UTC) Also the nominator had just redirected Jean-Albert Dadas to it, with a summary including "covered by actual RS in the target" - if that is true, it shouldn't be deleted. Peter James (talk) 22:13, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No they are not. From when they were written it's possible that they were based on Mad Travelers but not from any Wikipedia article, but older books could just be not as easy to find online because Google book search has less coverage of them, with the exception of 19th century books for which copyright has expired.

Condé Nast Traveler, in this article, reports that “dromomania," sometimes called “vagabond neurosis,” was officially added to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders as an “impulse-control disorder” and “psychiatric problem” in 2000. Also, I see Dizionario Oxford della medicina listing "dromomania." Real or not, the disorder was used to protect many a deserter in World War I, so characterizing it as "fringe nonsense" misses many points. -The Gnome (talk) 17:59, 8 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as a notable term, based on sources identified above and in the article, but I would like to see some balance - perhaps criticism of the concept being scientifically accepted as a legitimate medical condition? There's some recent coverage about this criticism in Adventure.com [[26]], although that seems to be kind of like a blog and not as reliable a source as we'd like. It does speak to the popular acceptance of the term though. A simple search using "NY Times" pulls up a review from 1977 [[27]] which mentions the term also, and a 1979 fashion article [[28]], also showing earlier popular acceptance of the term.

  • Make disambiguation There are two pieces of software by this name, and I think neither pass the GNG or NSOFT. The older is the topic of the prose, a debian-based operating system for the Xbox. But the "official link" at the bottom goes to xebian.org, which is a Debian fork using Xfce. I don't think either is primary. Googling "Xebian", you get a mix of both. I think the disambiguation page should point to the relevant pages which are notable, like Debian and Xbox Linux like so:
Xebian may refer to...
-A fork of the Debian operating system using Xfce
-Ed's Xebian, a Debian-based operating system for Xbox
I don't think there's any reason to delete the page, though I am not opposed to that (most of the content in the history fails WP:NOTMANUAL, and it was a redirect to Xbox for a while, so I don't think we'd miss it). Wugapodes [thɔk] [ˈkan.ˌʧɻɪbz] 04:29, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Wugapodes: That would not be appropriate per WP:DABMENTION since while it is mentioned on Xbox Linux, which, BTW, needs massive cleanup, it does not have a mention on either Debian or Xfce, so redirecting to the former could be a better option, but I'm not sure if it is even worth mentioning there since it is possibly undue. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 00:31, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Champion: I've thought about your reply for a bit. While I agree this would violate WP:DABMENTION, I think it's best to ignore it in this case. I don't believe deletion is the best solution here. I think redirecting would be good if it were possible, but I don't think either meaning is primary. Given that we can't redirect to two pages at once, I think this is the best way to get readers searching this name to a page related to what they're looking for. The lack of a mention seems, to me, a technicality that would result in a red link useless to readers. The dab will not be the most helpful (for the reasons in WP:DABMENTION) but I think deleting the page instead would be far less helpful than a sub-optimal dab page. Wugapodes [thɔk] [ˈkan.ˌʧɻɪbz] 19:29, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Search results will work just fine, the first result on the list (excluding this article) is Xbox Linux and it is also mentioned on MythTV, I am still opposed to a dab though, since there is no mention of the project at xebian.org anywhere, a better option would be to redirect to Xbox Linux and place a hatnote about the other distribution, I still favour outright deletion though, as that would be little more than trivial. - CHAMPION (talk) (contributions) (logs) 04:25, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. Notability tag has been there for over 5 years. Fails WP:GNG: no RS coverage given whatsoever. There are no inline citations. There are 3 external links: one to a page by the company who made it, one to a fan site with a plot summary, and one to a set of user-submitted reviews on another fan site.

So that's 1 RS article about it. GNG requires multiple sources.

The result was delete. I'm afraid some of the arguments in this AfD are off the mark. WP:FOOTYN is an essay; it says so in the banner at the top. Regardless of how it's viewed within the football project, such an essay cannot take the place of a more general notability guideline that is created with community input, and as such arguments based on FOOTYN can be given very limited weight. If this an accepted argument for European clubs, then the community should consider elevating FOOTYN to a guideline, but this discussion is not the place for that. No evidence has been presented to show that this club meets any other threshold for notability. Policy-based !votes to delete significantly outnumber those to keep, and thus I can only close this as delete. Vanamonde (talk) 10:39, 11 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per WP:FOOTYN. There is an interesting discussion above whether qualifying rounds count or not by FOOTYN. The source implies that qualifying rounds suffice. In fact even that it is unneeded. Just qualifying to play without playing in any capacity in the national cup is enough. Rule's first phrase: "All teams that have played in the national cup (or the national level of the league structure in countries where no cup exists) are assumed to meet WP:N criteria." (bold in source) This phrase seems to support the position of the delete supporters but remains somewhat ambiguous on qualifying rounds or what happens in other cases. Immediately after comes a second phrase that clarifies what happens in other cases: "Teams that are not eligible for national cups must be shown to meet broader WP:N criteria." This phrase clearly defines the clubs that are not automatically notable. These are the clubs that were never eligible to compete in the national cup. gidonb (talk) 09:40, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I've invited further input from WT:FOOTBALL here. GiantSnowman 14:31, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Playing in the qualifying rounds of a national cup is accepted as granting notability for Australian and English clubs, so not sure why it wouldn't ok here; I appreciate there are cups where thousands of teams can enter (like the Coupe de France), but this club has also played at the fourth level in the Thai pyramid, so they wouldn't appear to be non-entities. Number 57 14:46, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - I don't believe it is appropriate to read NFOOTY as granting a presumption of notability to every club which enters the qualifying rounds of a national cup competitions (particularly one like the Coupe de France as mentioned above), and a check of online English- and Thai-language sources indicates this club is not the subject of any significant coverage in reliable sources (just mentions of the club in match reports at best). It clearly fails the GNG. Jogurney (talk) 16:29, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – as per WP:NRV, which supersedes any requirements laid out in WP:FOOTYN; the lack of verifiable evidence supplants any other discussion regarding this club. Clyde1998 (talk) 01:54, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I don't think anyone is arguing it's unverifiable. It's clearly a Thai football team which plays in a cup - it's not as if we don't have anything to go on, just that the sourcing is mild at best, such as this article which appears to be a disciplinary proceeding: [29] or its Facebook page, which could be used to flesh out the article even if it doesn't touch notability: [30] or proof it played in the cup: [31] (Note: I am translating these articles through Google Translate.) And a showing of the league it plays in: [32] SportingFlyer talk 02:41, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment SNGs including WP:FOOTYN 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 .Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 07:29, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Several editors above, including myself, do not read this SNG (NFOOTBALL) to include clubs that have only played in qualifying rounds - and accordingly compliance with the GNG ought to be considered (if not decisive). Jogurney (talk) 17:42, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • I think there's a very reasonable argument that can be made here that the "qualification round" is actually part of the cup, as teams from the amateur league have to qualify for the "qualification round" through their participation in the amateur leagues, and teams from divisions 2, 3, 4 enter in the qualification round. An analogous cup would be the 2018–19_Croatian_Football_Cup, where I would strongly argue the preliminary round would qualify for notability, since teams only participate in the tournament at all if they win their county cup, even though the top teams don't enter for another round. SportingFlyer talk 03:55, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: All the keep !votes (a) appear to only cite WP:FOOTYN, which is an essay and not an accepted SNG, and (b) fail to provide any evidence that the subject satisfies the WP:GNG, which by default supersedes any SNG. --Paul_012 (talk) 12:13, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • As mentioned above, if GNG trumps any SNG, what is the point of even having SNGs.......? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:19, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • SNGs are useful for when editors lack the time or expertise to search for and/or identify reliable sources relevant to the subject. For example, if no one here was able to read Thai, citing an SNG (though WP:FOOTYN is not one) might be appropriate, since we wouldn't be able to rule out the possibility of Thai sources covering the subject. However, that is not the case here. --Paul_012 (talk) 15:00, 3 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
        • You seem to have ruled out the possibility of in-depth sources covering the subject from your search - does this exclude the possibility of any local sources that aren't online? There's definitely enough sources available to have an article, even if there's relatively little non-primary significant coverage. SportingFlyer talk 04:02, 4 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
          • If there were reliable sources that covered this subject, they would in all likelihood be general or sports news publications, most if not all of which have an online presence, as far as I know. In Thailand, there isn't a news culture that would produce such local coverage, especially for a remote place like Don Tan. Of course, one can't prove a negative, so I can't say that there's zero possibility. --Paul_012 (talk) 17:26, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
          • PS There's TV coverage as mentioned by Lerdsuwa below, though I wouldn't consider it particularly in-depth. --Paul_012 (talk) 17:26, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: The team's Youtube channel [33] has videos captured from TV programs from SMMTV channel (the channel belong to a publicly traded company [34]). So there are some news coverage for the team. --Lerdsuwa (talk) 13:59, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Delete per nom. Not exactly the best reason to delete but it's a valid point Redditaddict69 (talk) (cont) 20:27, 9 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Fails WP:GNG with lack of significant coverage from multiple independent sources. Unfortunately, even the Thai Wikipedia article is unsourced. Unswayed by those citing essay FOOTYN. Even if we assume a qualifier is part of the national cup, the essay makes an unfounded assumption that every country necessarily has reliable, independent, significant coverage.—Bagumba (talk) 08:15, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I'm willing to defend the assumption as most national cups generate local coverage. For instance, searching for Dontan PCCM brings up a number of mentions in directory listings of the FA Cup game, a number of youtube videos (including one of the FA Cup match, some of which appear secondary but I don't speak Thai), and even a "Did you know?" facebook post by the other (top division) team (used Google Translate.) Their Facebook feed is really good and I know it's primary, but since it's meant to advertise the club, it looks as if there may be some secondary coverage linked to on the Facebook page, especially 20 September 2016 it looks as if the club may have been profiled on SMM TV. The FA Cup game they were in definitely received some sort of television coverage from youtube. The article easily passes WP:V. I know we're probably a media source or two of significant coverage short at the moment, frustrated by the language barrier, but it's not as if an article about this club can't be written at all. A similar level of coverage exists for many teams playing in their national cup. SportingFlyer talk 10:36, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Unless there are sources (probably Thai ones) which provide any method of passing WP:GNG, then this has to be deleted. There is no notability rule that says playing in a national cup infers automatic notability, regardless of what the FOOTYN essay says. Black Kite (talk) 09:13, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The national cups include all sorts of teams, even the amateur ones, as the national cups are different from the league by definition, they give more opportunity to lower level teams too. In addition this team has never been participant in the Thai League, which is the only professional team in the list of the Fully professional leagues. Thus, it doesn't satisfy WP:NFOOTY. --1l2l3k (talk) 17:31, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NFOOTY is for players, not clubs. SportingFlyer talk 21:39, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The Notability sports page also mentions teams, where it points toward the GNG. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) 22:34, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes - and as I've demonstrated above, there's probably sources (especially Thai television sources, which are difficult to find) which make it probable this club passes WP:GNG. I know you've talked about the "walled garden" above, but a team playing in a national cup that fails WP:GNG is an exceptional case. SportingFlyer talk 01:54, 11 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Did you actually check the sources? Rock Music Raider is a blog and not RS. The Musicology source is dead, and there doesn't appear to be an archived version available, so I can't check if this passes RS or not. Metal Temple might be reliable, but the author of the piece is not listed among the staff and writers, either past or current, so I have to assume it was a reader who submitted the review and is therefore not acceptable as a source. I guess Muzik Etc. and Heavy are RS, but this isn't really my field, so I'm not sure about the reliability of these sites. Richard3120 (talk) 21:32, 22 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The only reference here that's really doing anything at all in terms of getting the band over GNG is the Heavy review — of the other four, two are blogs, one is a dead link whose former content and ability to be considered a reliable source at all are both completely unverifiable, and the last is a profile of a band member which doesn't say anything more about this band than a glancing namecheck of its existence in an overview of his entire career. This is not enough coverage to make a band "notable just because media coverage exists", if they don't have any strong claim to passing any of NMUSIC's more achievement-oriented notability criteria.

This was spam from the day it was created here, which was literally with a spam link and nothing else. Since then it has been sourced only to the company's website, and some wikilinks were spammed around WP. I speedied it and Eastmain threw in some shitty primary sources they found to "save" it and removed the speedy tag. Shit stuck on shit is still shit. In fact it is shittier.

The shit sources are:

  • PMID 16375767 - primary source, and if you read the competing interests section, it says "Thierry is the inventor of both the FT and the ST, is a consultant and has a capital interest in Biopredictive, the company marketing FibroTest-SteatoTest. Mona Munteanu is employee of Biopredictive, the company marketing FibroTest-SteatoTest." The journal in which it was published was discontinued in 2012.
  • PMID 27549244 - another primary source, again by the company: "TP is the inventor of FibroTest/SteatoTest and the founder of BioPredictive, the company that markets these tests. Patents belong to the French Public Organization Assistance Publique‐Hôpitaux de Paris (APHP). MM, YN, OD are BioPredictive employees. Others co‐authors have no conflict of interest."
  • Next we have a churnalism ref from a press release about the primary source just above.
  • Next is PMID 22431959, big shocker, another primary source from Thierry et al.

  • Delete and the closer should completely disregard Eastmain's argument as having no policy or guideline basis. We require independent sourcing: none of that exists as pointed out by Jytdog. Merging spam also makes no sense, which means it is not a reasonable alternative to deletion, as after we merge it we'd just have to remove it again. Deletion is the only outcome supported by our policies here (i.e. WP:NOT and WP:DEL.) TonyBallioni (talk) 01:40, 6 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable company that fails WP:NCORP and WP:CORPDEPTH, which special emphasis on the latter. To begin, the company and article lodge no real claims to encyclopedia significance, and a WP:BEFORE check turns up no quality, in depth sources. Coverage that exists is for the most part limited to press releases or announcements of new developments opening, both of which fall under NCORP. It should be noted that some coverage exists around MBK Housing, the parent company of MBK Rental Living, but the subsidiary does not inherit (per WP:NOTINHERITED) notability from its parent company. This is repeatable logic for large companies that have invested in the article subject. In short, the company has not accrued the significant, in-depth coverage need to make a claim to either encyclopedic notability or significance. SamHolt6 (talk) 02:41, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The company has over a billion dollars in revenue. Just take the number of units produced in California times $800k each. That seems pretty significant. Seems like there is this push for less content on Wikipedia. Seems like there would be a want for more information, not less. The information is factual. We give up. It's 4 on 2 now. 4 super users against 2 new ones. Way to treat new comers. And I think you mentioned ip addresses. We are roomates, so I would think we would have the same ip address. There's no conspiracy here. Just a stupid homework assignment we were given. We've already printed it out and submitted it. You can delete the article and our accounts for that matter. My roomate says he will never donate money to wikipedia again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RenterGuru (talkcontribs) 04:36, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question. RenterGuru, if this is a homework assignment, what course is it, and from what university? We will need to explain to the instructor about what is necessary for a proper Wikipedia article. DGG ( talk ) 05:39, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. I can feel some sympathy for the authors of the article if they really have been sent here by an organisation they trust and have a reasonable expectation will assign them only valid work. If so, that organisation has let them down badly. I strongly urge them, per DGG, to identify the organsiation so that it can be given advice on appropriate use of Wikipedia and to protect its future students from suffering the same experience. --DanielRigal (talk) 11:22, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As per above editors, written promotionally so that not much would be left if the promotional stuff were removed, and the content is not independent anyway.

  • Comment - If the student is editing in good faith, is the professor making the assignments in good faith? Robert McClenon (talk) 03:32, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Over on WP:COIN several people expressed doubts as to whether there really was a professor at all. Both the authors are now blocked and I doubt that we will ever get any further information to settle that question. If any more such "students" show up promoting property companies in the same area, and telling the same story when challenged, then it might be worth digging further but I hope that all involved have learned their lesson and we won't hear any more of this from them. --DanielRigal (talk) 14:03, 2 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a radio personality, whose claims of notability are not properly sourced. As a host of a syndicated show, he would be eligible for an article if he could be shown to clear WP:GNG, but it's not an automatic inclusion freebie that exempts him from having to be sourced properly -- but three of the six references here are his primary source profiles on his own self-published website and those of his employers, while two more are blurby press releases from his employers in which he gives brief soundbite. None of these are reliable sources for the purposes of establishing a person as notable -- and the only reference here that is a reliable source is a local media outlet covering him only in the context of winning that media outlet's own "best local radio personality" poll, which is not an article-clinching notability claim. As always, it's not what an article says that determines its keepability on Wikipedia, but how well it references what it says -- but this isn't referenced properly at all.

  • Delete - I looked for more coverage but couldn't find anything in a reliable source. This is all I could find on him: an opinion piece [[38]] and coverage of a medical emergency in a non-notable source. [[39]] The latter does call him Seattle's number one music station host, but without further coverage there's no way to validate whether that's anymore than just PR puffery. I also Googled the nationally syndicated show that the article says he hosts, and could only find this [[40]] So, he fails WP:GNG.TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 18:55, 7 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-advertorialized, but completely unreferenced once I stripped all the WP:ELNO-violating offlinks to ReverbNation from the body text, WP:AUTOBIO of a musician with no particularly strong claim of notability. As always, every musician is not automatically entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because he exists -- he has to be the subject of reliable source coverage in media, not the creator of his own public relations sourcing, for an article to become earned.

  • Delete I struggled to find any sources, and there does not appear to be any significant coverage apart from some trivial announcements - [41][42]. Even his YouTube videos have barely any views.
