Theodore Terbolizard[edit]

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

This page is about me and it presents a very incomplete and arguably slanderous representation of my life. It has been edited down to only reflect one thing I did over ten years ago and all of the other media attention I have received has somehow been removed or ignored.

I would like to argue my legal 'right to forget' case in this instance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Terbo Ted (talk • contribs) 23:46, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Completed steps 2 and 3--Auric talk 11:21, 30 January 2019 (UTC) [reply]

The "legal 'right to be forgotten' argument is not going to get far in this discussion, because there is not such recognized right under US law (it's basically a Europe thing), and that's the law that Wikipedia operates under. Generally "the article is no good" doesn't get an article deleted in the Article For Deletion process; as long as there's ay material in the article worth saving, it is generally saved. What gets articles deleted is generally establishing that the topic is not worthy of having an article. Here are our guidelines on what makes us consider a person sufficiently notable for an article. --Nat Gertler (talk) 00:33, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I haven't looked at sources or anything yet, but WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE may be relevant. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 08:39, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment A google-news search gives me 3 hits for "Terbolizard", that doesn't argue for WP:NOTABLE. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 08:49, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per cites currently in article and lack of coverage, fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOLITICIAN. If the acting or writing career [1][2] takes off we can always recreate. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:16, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate everyone reminding me that I referred to a European law, I was quite aware of that context and jurisdiction already. I am not in any way inferring that legal action against Wikipedia is pending. Indeed, I've sold furniture to wikipedia for their SF headquarters, they are a client. I bring up the right to forget concept because the sentiments of that certainly apply here. I have done so many things in my life that have had mainstream press coverage over the decades, perhaps the least interesting of which is that I finished in sixth place out of six candidates in an election primary over ten years ago. That someone deleted all of my other accomplishments from my page is fine, but please, delete the entire page if one life event over ten years ago is the only matter worth preserving. It's a pretty useless bit of internet but still manages to cause me personal problems with my daughter and others. It is not in any way a genuine representation of who I am. This article sucks, has multiple errors and generates almost no traffic. Honestly, I'm a loser, you can look at the previously deleted press coverage to find that is indeed true. Is that a good enough standard for deletion? Thank you for your kind consideration. And honestly, if I'm asking for a page about me to be deleted, snarky technical comments back are kind of rude and insulting, I hope you can understand this perspective with some degree of human compassion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Terbo Ted (talk • contribs) 07:04, 29 January 2019 (UTC) copied over from AFD Talk page for visibility by Nat Gertler (talk) 14:13, 29 January 2019 (UTC) [reply]

Delete - For those looking for the earlier version with more coverage that the poster refers to, it would appear to be this one, which was cleaned out for largely being an attack page with inappropriate sources (Amazon and eBay listings, other Wikipedia pages.) Looking through earlier revisions, I cannot find a time where there were substantial other sources that would indicate notability. --Nat Gertler (talk) 14:20, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I actually found a WP:DAILYMAIL article about a "Terbo Ted", but that's not useful. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 16:23, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE. Bishonen | talk 19:36, 29 January 2019 (UTC).[reply]
Delete without prejudice to the subject's acting or writing careers, which, as noted, may be more significant; but in the meantime there is not sufficient coverage for current notability standards, and there is also WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE. MPS1992 (talk) 23:54, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete due to insufficient coverage to meet notability standards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcfnord (talk • contribs) 00:39, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Terbo Ted (talk) 00:26, 2 February 2019 (UTC) !!!<---- this is Theodore Terbolizard speaking:[reply]

ok. while I have been a longtime wikipedia user/lurker I have never found it necessary to start an account to edit until it seemed to be the only way to recommend deleting this incredibly useless page about me I would like removed.

so far, I've been sort of miffed by how sententious all of you seem to be as a lot. simple user feedback. always lecturing me, whether it's on tildes- hey I didn't edit my comments- others did-!!! or lecturing me about law and so on. chill out people.

what's also really lame is that at one point my public page here on wikipedia was a fairly accurate representation of me as a person... the whole 'known for wide ranging failures' motif which was here at one point was exactly correct. that the community here thought that was some sort of attack page seems noble on a surface glance, but in honesty, with this page being about me, I can tell you, whomever pruned this page back to only the politics, which has been a hugely small part of my life, really irked me. There were lots of things referenced that i had done that were real. Somehow it seems sources like NPR, The San Francisco Chronicle, VICE Magazine and the Daily Mail don't count by your scorecard. I've learned a lot from this brief behind the curtain encounter and it's that I don't like wikipedia anymore.

Can't wait until my page is removed.

I really should go find some ascii art of tildes but I can't be bothered.

>>>----> end of THEODORE TERBOLIZARD RANTING <-----<<< Terbo Ted (talk) 00:26, 2 February 2019 (UTC) four tildes and some more tildes 00:26, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Terbo Ted, I mainly voted delete because I sympathized with your situation. Are you trying to change my mind with your sneers? I havent "lectured" you AFAIK, and I don't see anybody else above doing it either. Bishonen | talk 00:52, 2 February 2019 (UTC).[reply]

I think the fellow is entirely within his rights to denounce Wikipedia as being garbage. Everyone else has already done so, and most of them were right. I've never thus far met anyone whose name could easily be misheard -- and misread! -- as "Turbo Lizard", so I think he has the advantage of all of us there.

Myth (streamer)[edit]

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

Delete Looking at the previous AFD, while sources were identified, those didn't get comment. One was a Forbes contributor source which is not an RS. The ESPN of "Streamers to watch" has a whole single paragraph about Myth - not significant coverage by any mentions, and being name-dropped in a Polygon article is not sufficient. Popularity on Twitch is not a measurement of notability. --Masem (t) 15:26, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Alberto Borghetti[edit]

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

Fails WP:NPROF. No additional info has been added to this one line stub since its creation in 2017. Article is an orphan and upon trying to expand it, I could not find sources or evidence that it meets WP:NPROF notability. "Guglielmo Marconi" in his professor title is the name attached to the Department, not a named chair. While he does appear to have published many papers and I am admittedly not an expert so cannot judge their impact on the field, the complete lack of additional sources (both in English and Italian) referencing that research as well as the fact that there is no corresponding Italian article for this Italian professor supports lack of notability.

Keep While this is obviously a stub created from the IEEE list that year, the fact remains that becoming a Fellow of the IEEE is the actual example cited in the notability guideline for meeting WP:NACADEMIC#C3. Archive.org version of cited PDF for verification: [3] Bakazaka (talk) 01:36, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Along with the obvious pass of WP:PROF#C3, I think his Google Scholar profile shows enough citations to his work for #C1. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:46, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Withdrawn by nominator Missed IEEE because it was spelled out in the article. My mistake. It was helpful to have the proper citation, thank you. I've replaced the broken one. Would be great if someone with better understanding of the field could add a few lines highlighting significant contributions since there's very little out there other than academic papers. That would also provide an opportunity to better link and integrate the article. Sktai391 (talk) 10:44, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merge as above, but the first portion only, given the other ~75% doesn't read like a wikipedia article should do (and yes, reads like an essay/academic report).

Guaido challenge[edit]

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

This is a hashtag claiming to be a "viral internet challenge" for a current geopolitical event. It is a WP:NOT violation. The article is not describing promotion, it is engaging in it. It is unclear if there is a topic here, or why a separate article would be needed. power~enwiki (π, ν) 21:08, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No opinion from the creator, but some history. The article was tagged (not by Power~enwiki) literally minutes after the first edit,[4] so I haven't put the work I would usually exert into developing the article to an acceptable standard. I will put this one down to the "why experienced editors lose motivation to participate" department, and let the community decide what to do with this kerfuffle.

Merge to 2019 Venezuelan presidential crisis#Social media per Bkissin's rationale. Essentially a part of the larger crisis. Maybe deserves its own section but not a full article. HapHaxion _{(talk / contribs)} 05:16, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Reminder of the ten-year test. I don't see this particular social media campaign passing that test independent of the current crisis. This is an WP:OSE cop-out, but the #BringBackOurGirls campaign redirects to the Chibok schoolgirls kidnapping, as the campaign was not seen as independent from the situation at hand.

Delete. Mounting an unsuccessful primary challenge is not a notability claim that passes WP:NPOL, but this isn't doing a good job of demonstrating that he's notable for other reasons. Serving as a trustee of the state university and being appointed to the State Council of Education might be stronger notability claims if they were referenced significantly better than this, but one obituary in his local newspaper and one short namecheck of his existence in a journal article about an event he happened to be involved in is not enough sourcing to get him over the bar.

Strong Delete Article does not meet WP:ORGCRIT, WP:CORPDEPTH for the following reasons:

Of the sources listed, only the El Nueva Dia is RS. The first is an ad for the shoe store at a mall published by the owning company of the mall. The second is a directory listing with address, phone, etc. While there is the founding date of the company, this does not meet WP:CORPDEPTH. The third is another ad. The fourth is a webpage from La Gloria's competitors and the site is under construction. The fifth is the El Nueva Dia article.
I went searching for more information. I tried Newspapers.com to see if Florida papers might have something. No results. I searched for Puerto Rican newspapers and found this listing. I tried several papers, especially those that deal with business, but no results there either. I did a search for "La Gloria zapateria" and "La Gloria calzado" and "Tiendas La Gloria", no results.

Comment

I've tried 2 different computers, but all I can see of the FCC report is, as you said, it is "one of the principal shoe stores in Caguas, Puerto Rico". However, the article on the report is about the manager of La Gloria and not about the company itself. This still fails WP:ORGCRIT see the section Primary criteria. Like the NYT example, the FCC report is reliable, independent, and secondary, but the coverage about the store La Gloria is not significant.
The second source you cite merely mentions La Gloria, as well as 9 other retailers. The section is about commercial transformation, how older and newer buildings will make up the new commercial areas on Puerto Rico. It uses La Gloria merely as an example of the kind of store that will be in this new commercial area. For significant, independent, reliable, and secondary sources, you will need to find more articles like El Nueva Dia that talk in depth about La Gloria.
Lastly, the book you mention still does not talk about the store La Gloria. it mentions the modern slogan of the store and that the vice president of the company spoke about how important the book was. The companies profiled in the book, according to the article you cited, are E. Franco and Company, El Meson Sandwiches, Compofresco Processing as well as Ricomini and Vasallo, plus two international companies. Again, sources must have significant coverage -- meaning in depth coverage about the company La Gloria, and not just be mentions of it to qualify.Aurornisxui (talk) 15:38, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"It is the quality of the content that governs." and it looks like the article in El Nuevo Día is a good quality article on the shoe store.--the eloquent peasant (talk) 15:59, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It is, but you need more than one quality source to be notable. Aurornisxui (talk) 16:22, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I was reading this again and it says "A single significant independent source is almost never sufficient for demonstrating the notability of an organization." I think this means that multiple sources are not always required. I still believe the article in the newspaper is sufficient. Also I understand the FCC report was mainly about the guy, but it did mention the company as a Principle company in Puerto Rico.--the eloquent peasant (talk) 04:24, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:ORGCRIT "A company, corporation, organization, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." (my bold, italics on this part). Also, significant on Wikipedia does not equal lots and lots. Aurornisxui (talk) 14:29, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Clearly, many of the Keep !voters are not familiar with the guidelines on notability of companies and other organizations in WP:NCORP. We require intellectually independent references that discuss the company in-depth. References that contain a one-liner or a mention-in-passing fail the criteria for establishing notability as do references that are based on company announcements or rely extensively on interviews/quotations with connected sources. None of the references mentioned meet the criteria in WP:NCORP and the topic fails GNG. HighKing⁺⁺ 19:46, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Reviews on Amazon are not considered WP:Reliable sources, as far as I am aware. For someone whose first books were published from the late 1970s to early 1990s, I would not necessarily expect to find much on Google either. There are reviews and coverage of him (starting from 1966, 12 years before his first book was published) in digitised newspapers on Newspapers.com. I will try to add some.

~~delete~~ Most of the references are based on his 1978 book predicting a depression was coming and everyone should sell their stocks.

Comment 3 of the 10 reviews/articles are about his 1978 book - that is not "most". How is the accuracy of his forecasts relevant to his notability? One of the articles about his work actually says that his analysis wasn't accurate - the point is that other people wrote about him and his work. The first article, from 1966, is 26 paras long.

Keep, meets WP:NAUTHOR, books have received multiple reviews, in addition to those added to article by RebeccaGreen there are also (oh no! trade reviews, but available online yaaay!:)); for The Great Game of Politics, Publishers Weekly - "Serious students of the American presidency will find Stoken's thinking a bit simplistic as well as present-minded. .. But less-schooled readers may find some help in thinking about the approaching 2004 election.", Kirkus Reviews - "Amateurish exercise in political history, turning on half-correct assumptions and half-formed arguments. .. There’s nothing much new here, and nothing much worth remembering; readers would do better to consult the far more powerful work of Kevin Phillips and David Hackett Fisher, argued with a welcome dearth of exclamation marks. A PowerPoint presentation to Rotarians, maybe. A book, no." (ouch!!), Booklist - "There is nothing earthshaking here as Stoken lays out an analytical framework to track this ebb and flow back to George Washington's administration. .. Interesting and timely writing, especially for those who like their theories neatly packaged.", and Library Journal - " Unfortunately, the author's simplistic characterization of the ideologies of America's two main parties lacks objectivity, his interpretation of history is problematic, and his analyses of presidential politics seriously flawed."

Delete WP:NAUTHOR only looks to number of reviews after it's established by sources that the body of work is significant or well known ("In addition"), but nothing cited establishes that.

Ashlee Marie Preston[edit]

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

WP:BLP of a person who is not properly referenced as passing WP:GNG. The notability claims here -- having been editor in chief of a non-notable magazine, having been an unsuccessful candidate for political office, being purportedly (but not verifiably, as no reference cited here supports it at all) the first transgender woman to do either of those things, being named as an influential person in webmedia listicles, giving a TEDx talk -- are not instant notability freebies that would guarantee her an article just because she exists, but the article isn't properly sourced for the purposes of establishing that she would pass GNG for any of it. Apart from one magazine article about her declaring her unsuccessful candidacy, the only other references here are one of the listicles (which is not substantive, and is being cited only to support its own existence as a listicle rather than to support any content about Ashlee Marie Preston), and a primary source video of the TEDx talk itself. So the only source here that gets her off the starting blocks is the Ebony article, but that's not enough substantive coverage to get her to the finish line all by itself: there's not nearly enough quality referencing here to get her over the GNG bar, but none of this is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to have enough quality referencing to get over the GNG bar.

Delete article is a close paraphrase of [5] and as such a copyvio see [6]. Probably should be a speedy candidate for that alone. W C M_email 12:23, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep In case that wasn't already evident. I've also expended the article three-fold to include 15 citations, and that's without ref bombing, which could easily be done to prove a POINT, since most of the information is duplicated in multiple references. There are also additional references not used in the article being used for quotes on the corresponding Wikiquote page. GMG ^talk 18:07, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I could argue either for keeping or deleting this article. On one hand, there's enough about a failed candidacy that would disqualify a lot of the sources from GNG, and other sources identified above aren't necessarily WP:SIGCOV, and there's also a possible copyvio. On the other, there's quite a bit there that's non-political that dovetails with the political. I lean delete in these sorts of situations, but am fine either way.

Redirect to Ranks and insignia of the Hitler Youth if kept, otherwise to Hitler Youth (or subsection within). Is a plausible search term. Present article doesn't cite sources (though a search does show some - e.g. this seems like a RS at first blush). No reason to think this individual rank in Hitler youth is notable.Icewhiz (talk) 08:24, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Not sufficiently notable for an article of its own and no significant RS coverage (the RS found by Icewhiz is not available for viewing to me, so I can't tell if there's anything in-depth in it). Redirect to Ranks and insignia of the Hitler Youth if that's kept, otherwise Redirect to Hitler Youth but only if there's a mention of the term merged into that article per the way its AFD is going. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 08:55, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
My citation merely supports the existence of the rank in the Hitlerjugend rank structure - there's a list there (ordered by rank) on page 60 + drawings of the shoulder marks of each the 18 ranks in the next page (61) - nothing in-depth (does not preclude there being in-depth sourcing elsewhere, however per Hitler Youth's readable prose size of 16Kb - I would still think this should be addressed there prior to a spinout).Icewhiz (talk) 10:49, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Hitler Youth article, and not to the Ranks and insignia of the Hitler Youth article, IF it is not kept (which, as I have stated in discussion is not needed for a stand alone page and it looks as if the AfD for the "Ranks" page will go that way).

    - Please read what User:Icewhiz actually wrote. If Ranks and insignia of the Hitler Youth is not kept then it will clearly be merged with Hitler Youth. The term will therefore appear in one article or the other. Why are you so keen to get this completely deleted? I'm mystified, to be honest. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:30, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      - I've read what Icewhiz said. If someone wants to add sourced material to the Hitler Youth page and then create a redirect, I don't think anyone would object. Until then, there's no point in having a redirect when the target page does not mention the topic. Why are you so intent on getting this redirected now? I'm perplexed, to be honest. --K.e.coffman (talk) 01:14, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~ Speedy Keep All of the reasons for deletion listed above except one are not valid reasons to delete an article. The one valid reason (not notable) has the obvious problem that the existing references establish notability. --Guy Macon (talk) 20:15, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep This page is not written as a dictionary entry; sourcing is more than adequate to establish notability; the motivation for this AfD (by a single-purpose account) is dubious and no steps less drastic than nominating for deletion were taken first. XOR'easter (talk) 20:16, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Notability is clearly established by the references. As mentioned by XOR'easter, the article explains a concept and is not a dictionary definition. Johnuniq (talk) 22:39, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Nowhere on this page or any sourced page is it articulated just what is so nefarious about people asking civilly for evidence of an unsourced claim. Are we supposed to take the author's word that all those people are evil trolls and the unsourced claim is somehow more credible than every other unsourced claim on the internet?

Aside from the definition itself is the notability issue. I see in the suggested links that this is somehow related to the Gamergate controversy. I don't think editors realize the impression this gives to people who aren't involved in Wikipedia daily. Wikipedia is not hard up for donations and new users because it desperately lacks Gamergate or Twitter content. The one time in my life I was ever interested in joining Wikipedia and really learning the interface and policies happened to be around the time the controversy page was created. It made me question who would want to come home from work just to edit war about that stuff for hours. The same 5-10 people probably, day after day. I bet if I checked the page history today, it would be the exact same users who were there years ago.

I would rather my girlfriend walk in on me watching porn than see me edit this page. Delete this article. Stop the madness. I don't know how to put my I.P. address here but this is where it should go. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:192:8600:90B8:A8BF:99A0:6B91:A0B7 (talk) 22:47, 27 January 2019 (UTC) — 2601:192:8600:90B8:A8BF:99A0:6B91:A0B7 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Merge to nagging. The page in question is clearly about a neologism and we already have well-established words in English for this behaviour including nagging and pestering. There's also the similar and special case of vexatious requester. WP:DICDEF explains that "In Wikipedia, things are grouped into articles based on what they are, not what they are called by" and so we should not have a separate page for every new way of describing this. See also WP:RECENTISM. Andrew D. (talk) 10:43, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Pardon me, but I couldn't help but overhear... I would like to have a civil conversation about your statement that sealioning and nagging are the same thing. The Oxford Dictionary of Social Media[7] defines sealioning as "a disparaging term for the confrontational practice of leaping into an online discussion with endless demands for answers and evidence", but the main Oxford dictionary[8] defines Nag as "Harass (someone) constantly to do something that they are averse to". I'm just curious if you have any sources to back up your opinion? --Guy Macon (talk) 16:01, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, we are grouping ideas according to what they are, which is why this is not a section in the article about the pinnipeds of the family Otariidae. XOR'easter (talk) 18:13, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
A merge would be a bad idea. They're related concepts, but Sealioning is not a subset of nagging. If the merge went through, editors at nagging would correctly realize that the new material was irrelevant to the article and remove it. That kind of incorrect merge is tantamount to a deletion.

I'll admit, I got lucky on this one, because very little regional print media shows up in online searches.

Keep as a pass of WP:GNG or a verifiable pass of WP:NACTOR#1, though only one of those is necessary. Subject was starring in a popular soap opera at the time of his death, so no surprise that the coverage of that dominates, but you can also find some old Graphic coverage here and there.

Keep The article has been re-written. Non-cryptocurrency news, non-primary and Reliable sources have been researched and incorporated into the article to pass GNG, like this article in the Evening Standard, which notes that "the brothers’ first newspaper interview" and "Update [28 December 2018]: Representatives of 50 Cent have contacted the Evening Standard to say that 50 Cent is not a friend of Sam and Steve Williams. We are happy to update matters"

The Daily Express which notes that Sam Enrico Williams, of cryptocurrency due diligence platform Zloadr.com, told Express.co.uk: “The crypto market is still extremely volatile so you need to keep an eye on your assets 24/7.“The market can be brutal.

Other notable resources that prove the validity of this are Metro, Face 2 Face and others, moreover the sources are independent.

The idea of Tramp Magazine is no-longer an equation in the current article since re-writing has removed it WikiDan61 and I have concerns on the ability of someone self publishing in the Evening Standard or even the Express.

These resources have a chain of article editing/editors with the Evening Standard lead editor being George Osborne, Daily Express lead editor is Gary Jones just to mention a few of the resources used. These resources do not fall in the category of Tabloid Journalism

Delete. Although the author obviously makes all efforts to improve the article, which should be applauded, effort alone does unfortunately not qualify an article for the English Wikipedia. I can't give a fully confident vote, as I know little about the quality / category of Nigerian newspapers / websites, but my initial search any any following search hasn't turned up any results (including for "Dr. Dolor"). Sources are mostly blog entries, as already mentioned, and seem to have been written very close to the subject. And even if they, or some of them, were verifyable and reliable, they all seem to not establish notability in either case. --Ruhri Jörg 13:27, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the article is not in such great shape, it is true. However he is notable for having made a significant contribution to the field of early "net art" and computer-based art. There were not so many artists using the Internet at its beginning (Vuk Cosic, Olia Lialina, etc.), and he appears to have been a player in that early field. I can say this because I found enough sources that position him as one. The journal article with his name in the title points to this as well. Without speaking or understanding Slovenian, here is what I managed to find:

[[ https://www.rtvslo.si/kultura/razstave/elektronska-eksperimentalna-literatura-opazena-na-twitterju/236771 Slovenian News coverage]]
Spanish Book mention
A half-page description of a piece he made, in "Theory Into Poetry: New Approaches to the Lyric“
A journal article: [[ https://elmcip.net/critical-writing/literary-aspects-new-media-art-works-jaka-zeleznikar-and-sreco-dragan%7C“Literary Aspects of the New Media Art Works by Jaka Železnikar and Srečo Dragan“]]
Brief mention in “New Literary Hybrids in the Age of Multimedia Expression: Crossing borders"
Included in the Italian book “REFF, RomaEuropa FakeFactory: la reinvenzione del reale attraverso pratiche…" ThatMontrealIP (talk) 02:59, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've added eleven sources to the article and cleaned it up. In my reading it became clear that he is well-known in Slovenia but not so much outside of it. Well known anywhere is notable by our standards.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 05:05, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

comment I'm probably not going to vote on this, as I try to stay away from subjects who are too close to my own work. I will point out that amongst the artists own list of exhibitions [15] it appears he lists Net_condition, which is a very important show and frankly could/should have its own wikipedia page (and one that has come to define the Net.Art cohort), but he is not amongst the list of artists on the ZKM site.[16] He notes it as "TheLounge, NetShop" which was a lecture series as part of Net_condition [17] but again, he is not listed. He was active in the Net.Art scene, but his work has not been included in the exhibitions or histories of the movement. --Theredproject (talk) 06:44, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Having reviewed the sources just added to the article, I stand by my earlier assessment.

I have yet to see any article which addresses the subject in detail. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 23:38, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Thank you for the feedback. Added Inc. Magazine profile on the subject as a reference, which speaks to the subject as part of the Inc. "hall of fame." The other RS examples illustrate the work of the company and the significance of that work.

Thank you for considering. _signed,Flaco c (talk) 00:49, 15 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding citation #3, Healthcare Informatics doesn't list any editorial information and looks to me like a PR site, which would mean that it is not a reliable source. Additionally, inclusion in the Inc. hall of fame does not contribute toward notability per the section "Examples of trivial coverage" in WP:NORG Examples of trivial coverage that do not count toward meeting the significant coverage requirement [include]...inclusion in lists of similar organizations, particularly in "best of", "top 100", "fastest growing" or similar lists.

Keep First, thank you for the opportunity to learn more about WP's policies on article deletion and notability. I've been educating myself on the process, but am still a newbie at this aspect of WP's process. Second, let me put out there some personal biases: I've worked with Audacious Inquiry and oversaw some of their work on health information exchange in Maryland. I know the leadership team. I've not worked for them directly and have no personal skin in the question of deleting this article. I have a good sense of why this article is being considered for deletion as there are questions about the significance of the organization and its contributions to date. More importantly, it is difficult to determine the substance and reliability of the references cited. As an informatics professional focused on health information exchange, when I speak professionally I often cite Ai's Encounter Notification Service as one of the most substantial technical advances in our field in terms of its practical impact on patient outcomes. But we are challenged with a disconnect between what appears in scholarly articles, which may cite the value of encounter notifications, and the business articles which mention the companies developing the solutions but don't have the same perceived reliability. Informatics is an emerging field and, like other esoteric domains, it is hard to distinguish reliable sources from PR-driven sources. Healthcare Informatics is the closest journalistic outlet we have to an industry-focused publication with an independent staff and publication board. Would it be helpful to cite scholarly publications that discuss encounter notifications in regions where Ai's technology and services are used even if Ai isn't specifically mentioned?

Notability established — There's sufficient material to support notability, though a substantial proportion of the sources are incidental mentions. Also, there has been the propensity for an author to not use the title of a cited piece but rather use some interpretation of how the source supports the article as the title. This is not the right way to source information, and I've revised some if not most of these; there are still citations I've not revised remaining which need review and revision. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 16:33, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I have added one reference I found, that verifies that she modelled for Alexander McQueen. I also found an interview in Elle, which I can't see a date for [18], and a blogpost [19] that says that Marie-Claire France had a 10 page spread on her in their June 2011 issue. However, it seems that someone would need access to a print copy of that issue, as it's not online. RebeccaGreen (talk) 14:15, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I could almost laugh. That Elle France “interview” is literally just 5 beauty tips under her name. Nothing remotely mentions her career. The “Switching models” blog is not a reliable source by any stretch of the imagination, it’s just somebody’s hobby. So out of all the jobs this article has said she’s done, the only thing that can be verified is Alexander McQueen via picture book. This is the shit I’m talking about. This is why I propose articles for deletion. Trillfendi (talk) 16:40, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I was not suggesting that the blog was a source, I said that it refers to an issue of Marie-Claire which has a 10 page spread on her. That IS a source, one which is not online, but which WP:NEXISTs. You may also note, if you have looked at the actual article, that I did not add the Elle interview as a reference, precisely because it is an interview. However, I disagree that it is not related to her career - she is a model, and how she maintains her beauty is directly relevant to her career. RebeccaGreen (talk) 21:21, 14 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Of course it wasn’t added. It’s pointless.

Keep I believe she meets WP:NMODEL. It really concerns me how much these AfDs rely on what can be found online. Some evidence for her career is available online (eg walking for Alexander McQueen, modelling for Nina Ricci), but much more is in print magazines. If we had access to a full run of Vogue, Elle, Marie-Claire, Cosmopolitan, etc, we would be able to cite article titles, issue and page numbers, etc. I don't have that access, listings of the relevant magazines on ecommerce sites or scans on blogs are not considered reliable, but the sources WP:NEXIST. RebeccaGreen (talk) 17:02, 20 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don’t know why people keep thinking magazine editorials aren’t available online when the industry went digital eons ago. The problem is you’re looking for page numbers when editorials are found by title and photographer, if one doesn’t know the name of those then it’s hard to find. Even still if there’s no reliable source for it it doesn’t matter. Scraping the absolute bottom of the barrel just can’t save this article. Trillfendi (talk) 09:13, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Along with the coverage RebeccaGreen has found, I've also found two more sources that cover the article subject:

Squires, Mark. (2005). All through the night: A smoky bar, a grand piano, and a girl in this season's dramatic looks to steal your heart. Interview, 35(8), 202.

Karimzadeh, Mark. (2005). Nina Ricci Dives in with Ads. WWD, 189(16), 8.

You honestly consider two sources, these two no less, to be "sufficient”? For this entire article? Out of all the jobs claimed here only 2 have been "found"? But not accessible?

Comment Trillfendi, I don't know how you think you know how I was searching for this person ("The problem is you’re looking for page numbers when editorials are found by title and photographer, if one doesn’t know the name of those then it’s hard to find.") Why on earth would I look for page numbers? I found and added the Marie-Claire France editorial, by searching for her name! If you know of the location of digitised archives of fashion magazines, please share that with us. As far as I have been able to see, some pages of some issues have been archived on the Wayback Machine, but there is certainly not a full run. And no, feminist did not say that she considered two sources to be sufficient for the entire article, she said "Along with the coverage RebeccaGreen has found". Please stop WP:BLUDGEONing everyone who actually finds sources for the articles you nominate for AfD. RebeccaGreen (talk) 09:37, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Simply stating my opinion based on the s of the matter isn’t "bludgeoning" — no one is "forcing" you to change your mind about anything. I’m sure you can think for yourself. What I obviously said is anyone can see editorials by using Google Images, I was talking about finding the reliable source for it. Archives are usually on the website of a magazine but they’re not always there with mid-tier publications. So still, even given those circumstances she doesn’t even meet NMODEL for one possibility of a job, a picture book, and 2 invisble sources that don’t even cover her career. There was already a general notability tag there before I even proposed deletion. Trillfendi (talk) 22:53, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Here is a question about your opinion, @Trillfendi: Setting aside the question of sources and focusing on the article subject, if the subject actually did all the jobs that the article says she did, is she notable? Bakazaka (talk) 23:55, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In my honest belief, no. Trillfendi (talk) 00:22, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. That's helpful to know, since it means that finding the sources verifying those activities will not actually address your concern. It looked like two good faith editors were talking past each other, so maybe this will help clarify things. Bakazaka (talk) 00:30, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Then why do you mention the lack of sources in your nomination? Why do you say that the sources are not reliable and not sufficient? I still think that she meets WP:NMODEL, and that finding reliable sources that verify enough of her work is sufficient to establish that. RebeccaGreen (talk) 13:19, 22 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That’s just my opinion, while I recognize that if people want to keep the article then notability has to be established and consummate sources have to be found. I don’t think she had a broad enough sustained career to meet WP:NMODEL. I even resorted to seeing if there was an NYMag profile, but unfortunately not.

WP:ILIKEIT isn’t valid commentary. Trillfendi (talk) 04:48, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Trillfendi: Okay, then the reasons that I give for keeping this article is because it has good sources, and this model has made covers of fashion magazines from four different countries, which I surely DO consider keep worthy. But you are right that I didn't give a good enough reason for keeping this article the first time, but I have now. Also the sources and reasons that the people who want to keep this article are giving seem fine to me as well. Davidgoodheart (talk) 04:57, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I hate to play the devil’s advocate, but I’m struggling to see how appearances counted on one hand, a picture book, or one name mention in an aggregated article mitigates the notability tag. Thanks for contributing, nonetheless. Trillfendi (talk) 10:41, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, this site has numerous scans of covers/shoots, so she has been/was (looking at her website it looks like she is now behind the camera instead of in front of it) a model for a number of years, but unfortunately not significant enough to meet WP:NMODEL. Coolabahapple (talk) 14:22, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The sources are enough to establish WP:NMODEL. And WP:GNG applies as well. The additional sources discovered by other editors on this AfD also covers WP:NEXIST. BabbaQ (talk) 02:11, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

GNG? You’ve got to be kidding... (by virtue of the that the notability tag has been there for 9 years clearly that is not the case at all.) Trillfendi (talk) 05:19, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You've got to be kidding.. The Keep-side has given great rationales for their !votes. While those who wants it Deleted has done drive-by "Non notable" rationales without substance. BabbaQ (talk) 10:24, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@BabbaQ: Clearly you were the one lacking “substance”. On the last AfD of this you claimed just being a model was enough to keep this article. You presented no substance to keep it. The notability factor has NOT been addressed since! For 9 years, it’s been sitting there because the only source has been Fashion Model Directory which is not a reliable source. General notability is evidently NOT there! Not even an interview; one could even settle for a “Model Call” interview if it was out there. None of the sources added since contribute to notability in any way shape or form by even the most basic of standards. Appearance doesn’t equal notability especially given the fact that no one can manage to find “notable” work that aren’t on Pinterest scans by some random user. The people who have voted to delete have voted on the obvious failing of WP:GNG. The people who have voted to keep seem to think having your name mentioned in just one sentence is “enough” for notability. The reality is: it is not. Not for a model. Not for anyone. Trillfendi (talk) 23:22, 3 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete - there's evidence of appearances in major publications, including a Vogue.it link I just added, which starts to satisfy WP:NMODEL. However, I also like to see some biographical coverage that can be used to build a properly sourced article. That doesn't exist. TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 23:06, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article size is irrelevant to notability. If what is stated in the article is sourced and deemed notable and within guidelines it is notable for Keep. BabbaQ (talk) 00:49, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable member of a royal family of the United Arab Emirates.

As for copy right violation, you should point out which part exactly is in violation and it can be edited. It does not warrant deletion.

Keep The entry is well-documented and chronicles the recent arrests of a prominent labor activist, citing multiple sources for claims and quotations.

We have to consider that Sepideh Gholian is not notable, factors of Wikipedia:Notability (people) isn't true about her. Maybe she was notable for only one event (Haft Tappeh workers protest). So there is no need to devote 3 article to Ali Nejati, Esmail Bakhshi and Sepideh Gholian.According to WP:NOTPROPAGANDA, Wikipedia is not a soapbox, a battleground, or a vehicle for propaganda, advertising and showcasing! Saff V. (talk) 08:56, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
comment: Oh please Amensty International has released statements on this. There is exactly zero problem with verifiability. She is the central figure in a public controversy that caused the Islamic Republic to address the issue of torture and tortured confessions for the very first time. Are you even aware how many books, articles, and reports have been written on this topic? Ali Nejati is trade unionist leader with a career that has received extensive press coverage for over a decade. Why on earth you think his article should be merged with Sepideh Gholian's?! I think you should stop trying to use Wikipedia as a sopbox, battleground, or vehicle for propaganda for the political ideology that you support and try to look at the facts rationally.

Keep I found this AfD as a result of the canvassing complaint at AN/I and I'm sympathetic to people who face off-wiki canvasing when trying to make an improvement. But I have to say, it's pretty evident that reliable sources exist to establish Gholian as a notable individual. Simonm223 (talk) 13:42, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
comment Thank you, Simonm223. Please also take a look at Ali Nejati, the other article he is trying to have removed. He is a trade unionist whose work has received press coverage since at least 2009 as seen in fa.wikipedia. One of the sources that Saff V. has removed because he has a bad feeling about is a press release from a labor federation with over 50 million members worldwide. Quite honestly, I do not understand his obsession with having these pages removed. Fredrick eagles (talk) 14:09, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for sure. I have added one more reference from VOA website to empower the notability and validity of the article. The article has been covered deeply by enough valid and reliable individual sources. All parts have been covered and no breach of copyright to conclude there is a violation of copyright. If any they can be corrected. It is clear from the list of references that the article is notable and covered by both English and Farsi media. I like somebody to explain based on which criterion of notability this decision has been made to decide to candidate this article for deletion? And how a user concluded that the creator of this article has a personal connection to the topic?! Gharouni^Talk 14:30, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
comment Thank you. Gharouni and Jayron please also take a look at This AfD on Ali Nejati that Saff V. has created. He is intent on deleting Nejati's page but is incapable of providing any rational reason for it. Fredrick eagles (talk) 17:09, 30 January 2019

Mutya (calligraphy)[edit]

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

Mutya is undeserving of a Wikipedia page on the basis that it is a personalized script variation of the official Tagalog script, Baybayin, and that it is designed and practiced by one person with no official credentials that can give authoritative substance to his personal variation. The creation of personalized variations is purely recreational and should not be promoted as anything other than that. In a similar vein, if I were to create my own personalized variation for the Latin alphabet, it would be undeserving of its own page as would this one. The existence of this page implies that there is an officiality associated with this variation, when again in reality only one person primarily uses it. It is in no way appropriate for an encyclopedic website. It sets a false precedent that personalized script variations can have their own Wikipedia page, irregardless of how many people practice it. Furthermore, this page only has one source, a site called Omniglot, which is not an acceptable source under Wikipedia standards. ThePanorama (talk) 06:11, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I've found: [22] and this (not a RS, possibly a Wikipedia mirror?) [23]. So this was likely a thing at some point. SportingFlyer T·C 22:10, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Response - Yes, I saw that SportingFlyer - but if you look at the listing for Nkayi, it is listed as a "c" - for commune (one of the four in the list, as explained in the second paragraph), rather than a "d" for district. It was one of the reasons I began researching. There is also another one on this list, Mossendjo, which I fear suffers from the same issue (and I've also started an AfD on). And I agree, I'm not sure it's an RS, but their underlying sources are, I think. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 22:43, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Onel5969: I don't think these Congolese articles need to be deleted - assuming everything I've read is true, it looks like this was a district and they split off a commune and then Kayes District became the remainder of the district. Either we update these to be historical per [24] or move them to be the commune article. The problem really comes down to sourcing. SportingFlyer T·C 22:57, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I don't disagree, SportingFlyer - however, I can't seem to find anything in reliable sources to support this (see my note on the other AfD). If they truly were districts at one time, as I said in one of the AfD's, then the fix is simply changing the tense of a single word. But it's about the sourcing. Since the original articles were unsourced (which is why I hate unsourced articles), there's no way to track down what that editor was looking at over 10 years ago. However, barring turning up anything which supports their historical context, I think they should be deleted.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 23:14, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Onel5969: and per google translating [27], this should be renamed to Moutamba District, and Nkayi to Kayes District. SportingFlyer T·C 00:07, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent research, SportingFlyer - If you're sure that translation's correct, we can simply rename the current article, and close that AfD, same with this AfD. However, that source says that the name change occurred back in 1984, 2 decades before the WP articles were written. I tend to agree that we can do that, what do you say? In that vane, we should also rename the Ouesso District article into Mokéko District. It's interesting that Louvakou District was never called Loubomo on Wikipedia. Want to hear something ironic, it was my reviewing the new article, Hinda District which started me looking into this. Now based on this new source you've uncovered, that article should be deleted, and the Pointe-Noire District article simply renamed. What are your thoughts?

I'd focus on just what you've sent to AfD first. I don't think you're wrong, but both Ouesso District and Ouesso Commune bring up English-language search hits. I think Hinda is a better article than Pointe-Noire, to be honest - better sourcing. SportingFlyer T·C 04:27, 29 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete These are not stations, they are stops. They have no infrastructure that would make them a "station" and a bus stop shelter does not make them notable should they be renamed. Yes, many of these are longer than a couple sentences, but the content at Ocean and Fairfield / Ocean and Victoria stations, for example, is about the history of the metro line, not the stop itself, and is largely duplicated across articles (as it is copied and pasted to Ocean and Aptos station, among others on the same line). I had trouble finding sources about specific stops themselves rather than the lines or segments thereof. Whatever little unique information there is could be merged into their respective lines like K Ingleside#Station and stop listing or a List of K Ingleside stops.

Keep, merge or redirect depending on the notability of each place individually but all transit stops should be mentioned, at least, on a list of stops on the line and/or system and those without articles should reidrect to such a list. Deletion will bring no benefits over merging and may hinder the development of an article in future if notability increases. Thryduulf (talk) 12:13, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge. It's difficult to consider 100 articles as a batch. Some are fairly well-sourced and could pass the GNG. Some apparently have infrastructure beyond a sign, and are discussed in reliable sources. WP:BEFORE isn't required, but it's a good idea, and could have teased out some of these issues before a somewhat perfunctory mass nomination. It's disappointing that the nominator didn't engage anyone working in this space first, and I'm a bit puzzled as to why not. The precedents are tricky; Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Manchester Avenue station and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/36th and Market station pointed toward merging in large part because of the copy-paste "X is a stop" nature of the articles, which doesn't hold true for this batch (some are, some aren't). I think it might be a worthwhile endeavor to create a guideline for situations like these, because there are corner cases. I think everyone would agree that physical stations are notable, but what if a light rail line has both physical stations and stops? Ease of navigation might suggest the stops be broken out into their own articles (or not, anchors could handle that well enough). Mackensen (talk) 13:49, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge, per Mackensen. Useddenim (talk) 15:33, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge. On the one hand, I agree with Mackensen that some of these stops are probably notable as standalone articles. Physical stations are definitely notable. However, I also think that the existing List of Muni Metro stations article can also be expanded. Some of these subjects are basically little more than a sign on the sidewalk, and their corresponding articles consist of "X is a stop", a coordinates template, a succession box, and an image. So it may be fair to merge these articles. However, there are also some light rail stops that may have significant notability on their own. On a side note, I noticed that some of the stops with high-level platforms, as well as T Third Street stops (which all have real platforms and waiting areas) are not included in this AFD. epicgenius (talk) 15:56, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I agree with Useddenim in that these are more appropriately "stops" and not "stations". This naming format is already used elsewhere (e.g. Category:MTR Light Rail stops) This should be a system-wide guideline under WP:USSTATION, but that is another discussion altogether. epicgenius (talk) 15:58, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or merge a lot of Muni stops are simply bus signs with maybe a yellow line on the street to correspond, making an article for each one is almost akin to making an article for every bus stop that Muni or another agency has, I agree with a previous call to perhaps focus on expanding the list of Muni Metro stations instead.

Speedy keep There should be a set limit on to how many articles are bundled into an AfD. Like I've said in the past it makes our lives difficult if there are so many to check over if the nominators rationale is as vague as this one. Would recommend starting an RFC about it, as for UK stations/tram stops all are inherently notable (as to why/who suggested it however I haven't the foggiest) whereas for stations elsewhere in the world the majority are deleted with the obvious exceptions...

Speedy Keep Way too many articles nominated to consider in bulk. I'd be open to reviewing individual articles, but a bulk nomination of 100+ articles with widely differing coverage is inappropriate. Smartyllama (talk) 19:03, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep - And absurd amount of topics to investigate, flesh out and debate in one AfD. This AfD needs to die quickly. Oakshade (talk) 23:05, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep - I've tried closing this AFD but so far it's not working! - Absurd nomination - No one can research 98 articles within 7 days. –Davey2010^Talk 13:26, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wolfgang Klietmann[edit]

This really is not my area of expertise, but I struggle to see what he is notable for, and there seems to be no independent in-depth coverage in reliable sources. Appears to fail WP:BIO and WP:NACADEMIC. Edwardx (talk) 00:25, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete His main notable achievement seems to have been founding the Institute of Laboratory Medicine, which no longer exists. Likewise, 200 publications/conferences isn't particularly notable for a late-stage academic; speaking of which, he's a "Lecturer," not a professor. Although he has worked in rabies/infectious disease, he has not made any notable achievements in the area. This page overall reads like a resume to me. Furthermore, the original article seems to have been written in 2006 by someone related to Klietmann, as that person also wrote a page entitled "Maximilian klietmann" that was later deleted.
