Keep Deletion rationale is not valid, as AfD is not cleanup. Furthermore, I disagree with the nominating statement. It is an ethnic group, which are very often notable on their own merits. In addition, the nominator seems to have ignored the existing sources in the article, much less done any type of WP:BEFORE, there were four very solid references at time of nomination. More have been added since. GNG met by several miles. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 02:35, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep this clan (or sub-clan) has been the source of additional scholarly coverage [1] [2], and WP:GNG is in my view satisfied. The article certainly needs to be fleshed out. Pilaz (talk) 21:55, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • JJK2000, as it is, this nomination is arguably eligible for speedy keep per WP:CSK#1 and even #3. You seem to know of WP:AFDHOWTO, but what about the preceding section,WP:BEFORE? Please read it, and update your nomination with a valid WP:DELREASON. You have made one assertion about the state of the article; it's neither true nor enough reason for deletion if true. You've made more nominations that look identical. I'd advise you to stop and see how these ones go, first. In the meantime, an admin should seriously consider if the current nominations should be speedy kept and the nom advised to make better nominations moving forward. Regards! Usedtobecool ☎️ 04:24, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I agree with Usedtobecool about the quality of the nomination but this article fails WP:V having been unsourced since 2014. In football terms, the league is minor and well outside WP:FPL. Fails GNG too. No Great Shaker (talk) 06:09, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - no evidence of notability. GiantSnowman 13:13, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Fails WP:SIGCOV. I could not find any English-language Google results that would satisfy GNG outside of passing mentions of the league. There certainly could be Nepali language-sources, however that's not my expertise. If someone can provide those, I could be persuaded to change my answer depending on that level of coverage. GauchoDude (talk) 15:59, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep WP:NEXIST, WP:BIAS. There is absolutely no way that the second-tier tournament of a country of 30 million which loves football as much as any other would not meet WP:GNG. There is not much online but there is enough evidence to indicate that national newspapers at the time would have covered this. See this and this. I assume this is also reliable? It has WP:SIGCOV. There is plenty of additional coverage, including in goal.com which I have not mentioned because I am not sure of their reliablity. There is similar bits and pieces coverage of other seasons in RSes online which is another indicator that the record is patchy online for older seasons but all of them are covered with equal interest by the established national newspapers; and therefore the complete coverage should be available offline. If you search for the latest season of this tournament, you can find every little detail of it in all the reputable online RSes. Usedtobecool ☎️ 09:11, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Usedtobecool, appears to be enough coverage available. Plus, the nominator doesn't appear to have done a WP:BEFORE. Afd is WP:NOTCLEANUP. NemesisAT (talk) 20:40, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Usedtobecool's arguments are compelling here. In response, I would say that being covered regularly in Goal.com would be evidence of notability as well. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 20:01, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently promotional article, most content by SPAs. Claims of significant noteworthiness, but no evidence that Hawkins passes any prong of WP:JOURNALIST, or WP:GNG; most sources are primary or non-RS blogs; one RS is an article by Hawkins, and only the Yahoo! News article is even passing RS coverage. A WP:BEFORE overwhelmingly returns other people called "John Hawkins". I'd be happy to be shown wrong, but it would have to be shown, with independent third-party coverage in solid RSes that clearly meets WP:JOURNALIST, WP:GNG or another notability criterion.

  • Keep. As I said on the article's talk page: I don't agree that most of the content is from SPAs, I see in the history several confirmed editors who have done other topics. I don't agree that WP:GNG fails because most sources are primary or non-RS blogs, some of the mentioned publications / websites look famous to me. Also I believe WP:AUTHOR criteria tend to be less stringent. Peter Gulutzan (talk) 14:18, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Which prongs of WP:AUTHOR does it meet? There's also the completely zero third-party RS coverage - David Gerard (talk) 19:40, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I've checked those sources that are independent and reliable, and they don't tell us enough about this man to populate an encyclopaedia article. I've searched for additional sources, and I've found nothing useable.—S Marshall T/C 13:51, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently promotional bio, flagged on the talk page for notability for many years. No evidence of notability under WP:GNG, WP:NAUTHOR or any other specific guideline. Article is entirely primary sources, and contains zero third-party RS coverage; going back through old versions in the history doesn't show any better cites. A WP:BEFORE doesn't show notability for the author nor either of her books. I'd be happy to be shown wrong, but it would have to be shown, with solid coverage in independent third-party RSes.

  • Keep or maybe move. I absolutely agree it's very promo, but that doesn't mean she isn't notable. She meets GNG. Independent Women's Forum are enormous fans of hers and keep using her as a scientific voice - [1] [2] [3] [4]. Mother Jones are not fans of hers - [5]. Wall Street Journal think she's on the right track but needs to learn how to make strong arguments - [6]. Daily Life - [7]. Most articles talking about her do also mention her book, which is why I gave "move" as an option. But I prefer to keep the article as Smith because the book is consistently discussed as though it's an extension of her voice, and some of the articles do also discuss her as a person or other things she's said. --Xurizuri (talk) 04:33, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe the subject meets WP:NMUSIC. The sourcing is either unreliable, not significant coverage, or both. De-PROD'd with one additional source (Groove Cartel), but if the best sourcing available is a fairly routine "people release song" report in a low-impact blogazine, I think that points towards deletion rather than away from it. ♠PMC(talk) 20:33, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Non notable individual, does not comply at all with WP:NPEOPLE. Although it contains some references from Chilean mainstream media, it seems to me a great effort has been made to make this individual look notable when he isn't. There are some references for his participation in controversial events, but most do not even mention Izquierdo. Some original research has been made, especially in the ideology section, since no book, no article, no paper, etc., has ever been published analyzing Izquierdo's thoughts. In fact, he has not even published an article, ever. Some references are Twitter and YouTube. Is he relevant enough as a YouTuber? I don't think so. Also fails WP:NPOL. Please also refer to the Spanish Wikipedia request for deletion, where there is unanimous support for its deletion for the same, previously exposed reasons.

  • Comment. The article has tons of foreign language references with inline citations. Given this fact, I am not seeing a strong argument for deletion without a much more detailed source analysis that addresses each reference individually.4meter4 (talk) 07:45, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Ref 1 is unavailable (primary). Ref No. 2 is kind of reliable. Publimetro has taken a clear left wing stance and may be non neutral. Ref 3 to 5 are definitely not reliable, especially no. 5. In fact, this article relies heavily on El Universal, which is a sensationalist, definitely not reliable, blog (disguised as an online newspaper) which is run by Felipe Henriquez, who is a well known (not for good reasons) Twitter user and leftist "activist". Some references do not even exist, such as No. 11 (Zank You). Many references do not even mention Izquierdo: ref 8, 9, 10, 20, 21. There are some references that are "analyzed" by whoever added it (original research): ref 22, 36, 39. Bedivere (talk) 15:35, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG and the spirit of WP:NFOOTBALL, his professional play being limited to 15 minutes for Maritimo. Cited sources are nowhere near enough for an encyclopedic article, given the lack of sporting achievements. Geschichte (talk) 17:55, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You are linking the wrong club, and the league he played in, the Segunda Divisao B, was not professional. Geschichte (talk) 06:51, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Frias does not meet NFOOTY, which only recognizes the top two Portuguese divisions as being "fully professional" for the sake of satisfying NFOOTY. Lusitania was in the third division when Frias played there. Whether there might be sources in Portuguese is irrelevant; the GNG requires not that the theoretical existence of reliable sources providing substantial coverage to the subject be alleged, but that such sources need to be produced. Ravenswing 23:11, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    My mistake over Lusitania, I thought the fact that they are a professional club is enough. But he does (just) meet NFOOTBALL because of his single appearance for Maritimo.-- Pawnkingthree (talk) 12:29, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - fails GNG and NFOOTBALL. GiantSnowman 10:25, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – playing in the Primeira Liga confers notability per WP:NFOOTBALL. Article needs improving, not deleting. Keskkonnakaitse (talk) 11:41, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • OK, this was a snarky rationale, but I don't particularly care at the moment. Frias also meets GNG, with both of the articles already on the page (broken currently, but accessible through the Wayback Machine), as well as coverage such as this Boston Globe article or Soccer America or this from his time at Mount Ida. Unlike the nom's claims, there's enough sources to write an encyclopedic article; unlike Ravenswing's claim, he absolutely does meet NFOOTY through the appearance with Marítimo. And as to NGS's thought that this is an autobiography, then you'd better be able to provide some proof that Frias is a pro wrestling fan, because the article creator was also quite prolific there back in 2007. Keskkonnakaitse (talk) 11:59, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • Keskkonnakaitse [15] is just transfer news, and the 2 Newspapers.com clippings say "This clipping has been marked as not public."- are you able to mark them as public so people can check them (or just give the original URLs for them)? Joseph2302 (talk) 12:52, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • Joseph2302 I believe I just made them publicly viewable, but let me know if they still aren't showing up. I can also give the original URLs, but without a Newspapers.com subscription they won't be viewable either. That's just the reality of early American soccer coverage: just like early British coverage, it was almost entirely in print (until about 2010 and in some places even after that).Keskkonnakaitse (talk) 13:09, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
          • Well, let's take an actual look. As it happens, everything but the Dell'Abpa Globe article are casual mentions -- it would never occur to me to claim that a 42-word article met the "substantial coverage" bar the GNG sets -- or routine sports coverage debarred by WP:ROUTINE from bolstering notability. I stand by my vote; a single 15-minute stint does not immunize a subject from meeting the GNG. I'd be more impressed at "article needs improving" if any attempt was made to do so. Ravenswing 14:36, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
            • Then would you complain if I actively attempted to improve the article (the same way I just did Steve Palacios) while this AFD is still ongoing? Back in 2019 I tried to do so at an article that was at AFD and was rebuked for doing so...but if there aren't the same complaints here, I'd love to overhaul this article. Keskkonnakaitse (talk) 16:31, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
              • Me? Good heavens, no. I'm what editors looking for a cheap ad hominem slur call a deletionist, but the goal should be improved articles, and I'm not one of those cementheads who think that filing an AfD somehow puts a freeze on the article. If you improve it to the point where I change my mind on deletion, that's a win all around, right? Go for it. Ravenswing 17:15, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Promotional, poorly-written page for a forgotten union official who fails WP:ANYBIO. Local/regional news coverage is more related to the Correction Officers' Benevolent Association.

In other words he passes WP:GNG very easily. There is no reason to delete this. He ran the largest Union in NYC and he had weekly radio show that was popular and then he got bagged for corruption big time. He lost like 20 million in the Union employees retirement funding. There are tons of articles on this incident, plus he was very influential during his almost 20 years as Union leader. I had never head of this guy and just did some quick research on him and found he was quite spoken about in news articles. Also WP:NTEMP makes, “forgotten union official” not have any merit. Granted it needs to be worked on some but it should not be deleted this guy is a very colorful character it would appear. --Rrmmll22 (talk) 02:17, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No indication that her work is included in significant museum collections; nor received in-depth coverage in reviews/articles over an extended period of time in independent reliable sources. She is not yet considered a significant contributor to her field, nor created a well-known work or collective body of work, but perhaps over the next several years her career will develop enough to sustain an article.

The first two are substantial articles in a major newspaper and a significant art magazine. The third is a brief mention in the New York Times, indicating an international profile.

The premise of the article, “let’s talk about every possible interaction between two random entities that nobody else has bothered to compile before”, is sort of a textbook example of original research, no? Also note that the bulk of the text deals with interactions since 1952, five years after the Romanian royals were overthrown. It’s basically “the husband of the ex-King’s daughter had dinner with the Queen’s younger son”, i.e. trivia. Biruitorul Talk 13:29, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A short lived video game developer that does not appear to pass the WP:GNG or WP:NCORP. Though the article says they never developed a game, it does seem like they co-developed one, "adgame" about the Toyota Yaris (video game), but that was it. The only sources currently in the article, and all other sources I can find through searches aside from trivial mentions, are all either just reports on its deal with EA or reports on the company shutting down, which, per WP:NCORP, falls under routine coverage that does not contribute towards notability. It was nominated for deletion once way back in 2007, but that resulted in a No Consensus decision, largely because it was still unclear whether or not the studio was still in operation. As we now know that it is not, and never produced anything of note, I felt it was time to re-examine it. Rorshacma (talk) 03:36, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Czar: I feel that two !votes for merging, along with one !vote for deletion (the nomination itself) does not constitute a solid consensus. Note that the nominator appears to be opining for straight deletion, rather than merging or redirection. It seems that you may be discounting the opinion of the nominator in favor of yours and Piotrus' above, essentially declaring a consensus by way of questioning the relisting of the discussion. North America1000 05:45, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
AfDs are closed in logs each day with comparable activity. This is an uncontroversial close, especially given that it preserves content from a stub. czar 05:57, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Czar: Perhaps you could provide some examples of similar recent closures. While AfD is not based upon an !vote count, two merge !votes and one delete !vote, all of which include valid, guideline- and policy-based arguments, does not constitute an actual consensus. I've been doing this for a while; perhaps standards have laxed in favor of faster closures. It's also important to note the arguments in the previous AfD discussion as well, rather than ignore that discussion. North America1000 06:25, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Northamerica1000, I don't want to get off-topic here—just wanted to know if there was a reason for the relist, but most logs have closures with two non-nom !votes (bottom of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2021 October 5, middle of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2021 October 9). Relists are only meant to be used when the consensus is unclear or controversial. This discussion is in agreement that the subject is non-notable and there have been no arguments against preserving what can be salvaged from the content. czar 06:58, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Czar: Some of those closures you mention are non-admin closures, and very well may have been best closed by an admin. Most are discussions where three users (including the nominator) have all opined for the same result, which is not how this discussion has transpired. Nowhere at WP:RELIST does it say that relists are "only meant" when consensus is controversial, as you state above. It seems that you are entirely making your own rule in this case, because it is not policy based. Furthermore, in congruence with WP:RELIST, this discussion has had "only a few participants (including the nominator)." This is not a particularly substantive debate, and the concerns of the nominator have barely been addressed. Additionally, the fact that the article has already been through the AfD process once with a no consensus closure deems this discussion as at the very least potentially controversial. If I were to close this now with a merge result, it is quite possible that others may consider it to be a WP:SUPERVOTE. Essentially, if one more user were to opine for merging, with a valid guideline- or policy-based rationale, that would be enough to be considered a consensus in this particular instance. A simple two versus one, when all provide such valid rationales, is not really a consensus, it's a vote count. North America1000 07:29, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The mentioned articles are not at deletion review and they will not be contested. As for vote counting, I don't think it's "two versus one" and it's easy enough to ask the "one": @Rorshacma, are you opposed to merger? czar 07:04, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I suppose I would not be opposed to merger. Looking at the Blizzard North article, there is already precedent for another, short lived company that was formed by former employees to be mentioned there, so a sentence merger there for this one would probably be fine. Rorshacma (talk) 16:48, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I've added a couple sources. I feel articles in IGN and Gamespot are sufficient to meet GNG, and this is enough to establish notability per WP:GNG: "It meets either the general notability guideline (GNG) below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific notability guideline (SNG) listed in the box on the right". NemesisAT (talk) 21:38, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Those sources—simple announcements of the studio's closure—do not pass WP:CORPDEPTH. They are repackaged press releases, some consisting entirely of quotes. czar 07:04, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yeah, one of the new sources is literally a press release from the company, and thus not a valid reliable source, and the other is still just routine coverage of the studio's closure. Rorshacma (talk) 16:48, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    The question was: "Should it exist in this form?" It's not a gallery (one exists in the article on Hughes), not an (illustrated) list of links to articles about notable artworks but a list of linked filenames. Vexations (talk) 13:43, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Is the list topic discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources? If so, where? Vexations (talk) 13:44, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Vexations: I suppose I viewed this like a discography or bibliography in that Hughes is usually only spoken about in RS in relation to his works. If you think this article doesn't meet WP:LISTN, is a content fork of Edward Robert Hughes or should be merged into the Edward Robert Hughes article due to notability issues then you should make that argument. Your nomination only makes the case that it should not exist because a wikimedia commons category already exists. Vladimir.copic (talk) 22:29, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep A valid spinoff article of content that wouldn't fit easily in the main article. If someone is famous for their artwork, then a list of what they created should be somewhere. Dream Focus 18:15, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    We should have a List of works by (Artist) for every notable artist. Is that your argument? We have {{Navboxes}} for artists whose works themselves are notable. But your argument is that we should list any and all works, isn't it? Vexations (talk) 18:50, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep we have lists of releases for musicians and authors, and list of films for actors, so I don't see why an artist shouldn't have a list of works too.

Film Significant Role

Undercover Heat No article, only a redirect to a list No
Jimi, 1996 No article No
Grizzly Adams and the Legend of Dark Mountain No article No

A review of the references shows that they may be the results of a naïve Google search. They all reference to the subject, which means that the search was properly done. They are also all properly formatted, which show that the author has read Referencing for Beginners. None of them are independent significant secondary coverage. The references are all consistent with the article, in backing up the run-of-the-mill career that is documented in the article.

  • Keep - I expanded the article and included multiple citations.

It is considered the earliest recording of a Judy Garland performance with her singing solo (at the age of 8) and for that reason alone will continue to be mentioned ad infinitum. It may not be mentioned online by big name media because it is, after all, only about 7 minutes long, it is campy, has horrendous sound quality, and watching it will cause you to either cringe or laugh your head off. Meets WP:NFILM through its 'Other evidence of notability' because it is historically notable and was re-screened in 1996 at New York City's Palace Theatre, and by 'Inclusionary criteria' due to its historical interest re old film technologies and Garland's career milestone.

Of encyclopedic value? I have my doubts. There are a million forgotten and often dismal video games from the 80s and 90s - is this one worthy of immortality? The PC Gamer mention is a junk source - a mere mention in reference to its pending sales release; the second is ok; the third, dead. Not notable in my mind.

  • Keep, per WP:NEXIST. I was able to find coverage from GameSpot [25], Adventure Gamers [26] and Just Adventure [27] [28] (all sources that are listed as reliable at WP:VG/S). Looking at the game's page on MobyGames, it also seems that there was a review in print magazine Computer Games Magazine. Lowercaserho (talk) 10:08, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Clearly had a large number of magazine and online reviews per the Mobygames test. The nomination seems WP:IDONTLIKEIT rather than motivated by actual WP:BEFORE searching. A bad game does not mean it's not a notable game (I once made Vroom in the Night Sky, which got a Destructoid score of 1/10 but still clearly notable from a Wiki perspective).ZXCVBNM (TALK) 10:44, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - This may have some content beyond a passing mention, however snippet view is too limiting for me to tell for sure. I think that this passes WP:GNG due to the sources that Lowercaseho provided; I also find the deletion rationale lacking in policy of notability. The PC gamer source is adequate for its purpose; to cite the release date. Dead sources are also not indications of a lack of notability, as well. Sennecaster (Chat) 17:21, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment So much passion, so little time. For all the criticism of this nomination, I find it curious that not a single one of the people saying keep seems to have even the slightest inclination to do anything about the sourcing, even after they've gone to the trouble to find what they think are suitable references. Everyone also seems to be forgetting that simply having coverage does not automatically establish notability: that is just the lowest common denominator of what CAN potentially establish notability. However, if there is this much passion to have zombie articles with terrible sourcing littered with clean-up notices and lingering in half-life all over Wikipedia, have at it. Actions speak louder than words though. Maybe consider an edit or two. Iskandar323 (talk) 19:39, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There is no need for an editor to WP:SOLVE every problem they bring up and asking editors to do that is disingenuous. Wikipedia is a work in progress and articles don't need to be good to exist if someone can prove they ought to exist. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 22:33, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:NEXIST sources do not need to be in the article for the subject to meet notability guidelines. And in practise 99.9% of all articles will get kept if there is sufficient secondary, independent, and relable WP:SIGCOV on the subject. Jumpytoo Talk 22:49, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I imagine that this must prove rather exhaustive in the case of video games, because even the shoddiest productions presumably have a review or two lying around somewhere. Perhaps there need to be separate notability guidelines for the genre. Iskandar323 (talk) 05:10, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
When making articles, I just go by the WP:GNG, no more, no less. This also applies to any other topic on Wikipedia, whether it be an album few people have heard of or a bridge in the middle of nowhere. Your beef seems to be with the GNG, not with games specifically, because I don't see why games should be more stringent than TV shows, musical albums, or books. Anyone can self publish a book, so it's not like games face different challenges. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 06:45, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. The argument that the list fails WP:LISTN (for having no sources that discuss the notability of the set of films that have sequels) is far more compelling than the argument that the list has clear inclusion criteria (which is true, but doesn't matter if the grouping itself is indiscriminate or non-notable) or the argument that the list is a useful navigational tool (which is arguably not true, as any article on a notable film will surely link to its sequels). —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 05:58, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep A list of movies and their sequels is not WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE but rather satisfies WP:LISTPURP#Navigation -- this is an easy reference to (and sometimes the only way to learn of) a sequel. This also satisfies WP:CAT. -Tiredmeliorist (talk) 15:05, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • You can easily learn of a sequel by looking up literally any movie on Wikipedia and seeing if the article mentions one. This list is only useful if you wanted to (in theory) see every notable film that has a sequel in one place, which is hypothetically WP:USEFUL to someone but in practice is largely devoid of practical use on top of being far too broad to realistically maintain. Dronebogus (talk) 00:18, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    There are quite a number of movie sequels here that I would have never thought to look up. I'm sure I’m not alone. You might say that's WP:USEFUL but that does not preclude it being WP:LISTPURP#Information -- they overlap quite a bit. Indeed, in order to be WP:5P1 an item must also be "useful" in some way. So saying it's WP:USEFUL is not really a rebuttal, it's just a warning that one needs to "explain why it's useful" rather than rely on simple utility to pass WP:NOTE. And this article does just that, as my original post demonstrated. -Tiredmeliorist (talk) 21:48, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Clear inclusion criteria, valid navigational link. Keep all the other Category:Lists of film series as well. The nominator once again makes the case he wants to destroy list articles in favor of categories. As explained before in other AFDs he started, that is not a valid reason to delete something. WP:NOTDUPE states Furthermore, arguing that a category duplicates a list (or vice versa) at a deletion discussion is not a valid reason for deletion. Dream Focus 07:21, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Per Wikipedia:Categories, lists, and navigation templates, lists and categories neither conflict with each other, duplicate each other, nor should one be considered more valuable/useable over the other. As a reader of Wikipedia, I prefer lists. As an editor, I can see why someone might think lists are harder to maintain. However there is no guarantee that categories are more complete than lists. Let those who want to maintain this list do so; otherwise ignore it. Platonk (talk) 16:23, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete obviously fails WP:LISTN (there is no source discussing feature film series with two entries as being a notable/significant group); and I fail to see what navigational purpose is achieved by specifically grouping film series by number of entries, and making it into a list.

  • Keep This is obviously part of a set – see the nav box (right). It therefore makes no sense to consider this entry in isolation. Movies series are highly notable as entire books are written about them such as The Great Movie Series and the Encyclopedia of Film Themes, Settings and Series. We naturally need indexes for all this material and so the topic passes WP:CLN; WP:LISTPURP; WP:LISTN and WP:NOTDUPE. Andrew🐉(talk) 08:43, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per NLIST. First off, two do not make a "series". There are lists of film sequels ("35 Sequels Better Than the Original Movie" [Time magazine], "The Greatest Movie Sequels" [Empire magazine]), but they're not restricted to one and only one sequel. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:08, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete NLIST...and also the fact that quite a few of the 'sequels' on this list did not have original casts or writers involved and were filmed by the studio for crass cash-ins, or have many more than two films. Nate (chatter) 00:51, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Um, that's WP:IDONTLIKE to its core, lol. I mean, I hear you, but a sequel is a sequel regardless how terrible it is. For example, Fast Five was a big reboot, but still counts. Also, making a list with the criteria you are talking about would probably be WP:OR. -Tiredmeliorist (talk) 00:24, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes but many more than two films is a legitimate point, admittedly more one for cleanup. Dronebogus (talk) 10:45, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Andrew provided tangible proof to the articles importance regarding WP:LISTPURP#Navigation (witness the exquisite navbar to your right). This list fulfills many uses, least not WP:LISTN, which says articles that fulfil informational, navigational, or developmental purposes should be kept "regardless of any demonstrated notability." This page could have cascading effects on other lists, so hard to say it's not navigational. -Tiredmeliorist (talk) 00:24, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reply. That infobox navbar is made by someone here, so real-world notability isn't proven by that. Most people do not consider two films a series. For example, film historian Tim Dirks' glossary entry for "series" states, "the term also applies to feature films with more than one sequel; contrast with serials and sequels" (bolding mine). Heck, the infobox navbar even implicitly acknowledges that by putting Sequel in the Related category. Clarityfiend (talk) 22:01, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

To the best of my knowledge, this is not an FCC-licensed station, and there's no coverage in reliable sources to verify its existence, much less meet the GNG. (And if the article is to be believed, "WKUI" doesn't even sign on until November 1 — for quite a few years now, we've been trying to move away from having premature articles on unlaunched stations even when there is verifiable evidence of at least a construction permit.) Unsurprisingly for this topic area, an earlier PROD nomination was contested by the creator. WCQuidditch 01:48, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Kid playing pretend-created station, and WSIM-LP already holds the 103.5 frequency in the region (and it's very unlikely a local-backed group could get a major-market full-market FM these days).

  • Comment -- The Seventh Day Adventists are regarded by other Christians as a heterodox group, so that their theological work is unlikely to be of interest outside the denomination.

As a theological professor at Andrews University (the main theological center of Seventh-Day Adventism) he's certainly exerted influence.

Comment Forbes has a couple of lines about the company and some quotes. Bloomberg is mostly funding related. The Hindu is again a couple of lines with some quotes. Very typical industry story situation. Qz - it is in-depth but not following WP:CORPDEPTH; it is simply a retell of what was told and there is barely any independent analysis or commentary. Economic times - funding related. Live mint is not considered WP:RS. Financial Express says 'brandwagon'. Reuters is a single mention in the entire article. Same goes for both the Washington post.

Google books gets some pretty good coverage of him, including The Penguin Jazz Guide, Living Blues, Jazz Journal International, The Cambridge Companion to Recorded Music, Fats Waller on the Air: The Radio Broadcasts and Discography, Playback: The Bulletin of the National Sound Archive, and Hi-fi News & Record Review.

    • #1 little more than mentions, not in-depth coverage
    • #2 Passing mention - just a name drop

  • Keep probably not a WP:BEFORE - the nomination does not really articulate a valid WP:DEL-REASON. Kind of lackadaisical to say, "it has been tagged, and probably needs TNT". 4meter4 has presented RSs, and Spinning Spark has dismissed the RSs. Having written a few artist bios, I can tell you that many small things make the big thing. Sometimes a preponderance of the evidence is needed. Checking the first AfD a participant said: "Keep. Superficially investigated, rash call on my part. A leader in his field it seems, and globally known. Unlikely case of COI. Terrible article though."
"And the second AfD: "Nomination withdrawn I missed the 2007 discussion, my error. Boleyn." Now we have a third AfD? Perhaps after 13 years...one of us should fix it instead of nominating it. Lightburst (talk) 19:58, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Essentially that's all it says. Just a passing mention of Kendall. SpinningSpark 22:22, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Working on it - seems like an authority in his field. It is a passing mention of an important device that he manufactures. Lightburst (talk) 22:36, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Spinningspark: Finding non-trivial items like this book section he wrote. Lightburst (talk) 23:09, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fixed the link above. There is more but I will wait to see if others think we will keep. He has an extensive discography and using his name with the term "remastering" brings more. Lightburst (talk) 01:02, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Creative's first two things seem to have been met. 1.The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors; 2. The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique;. So meeting either of those proves notability in the subject specific guideline for people like this. His "Mousetrap" revolutionized the industry, replacing "The Packburn" everyone was using before. Dream Focus 04:41, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I would be convinced by that if there was a source actually saying he was important, but there is not. The British Library document says they used his device in a passing mention and that it was an improvement over what they used before, but that is a long way from saying it is a "significant new concept, or technique". Reading his own description of his device, it seems he put together several already existing techniques in one convenient device. That hardly seems revolutionary; but tif users' might find it so, evidence of that is needed. SpinningSpark 06:37, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
User:Spinningspark definately. The device is not what drew praise for him. His remastering techniques - apparently widely called an expert for taking old poorly recored 78 records from turn of early 20th century performers. I could have changed the lead to mention he is an expert based on the many references that say just that. But I wanted to be careful because there are so many mentions in old Jazz fansites, and blogs. He is called a virtuoso in at least one book, and his work draws praise in many more. Lightburst (talk) 16:15, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Lightburst: It would help if you linked to, or named and quoted from, the reliable sources you think support this. I'm not going to change my position on the basis of vague assertions. SpinningSpark 17:00, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • @Spinningspark: I put several in the article, but I am gong to edit in other areas until I see if other editors agree. I think if you search his company JSP or remastering you will find he is the expert. Here is just one calling him a [[Virtuoso]]. Lightburst (talk) 17:54, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete fails WP:BASIC and sourcing doesn't show that any part of WP:CREATIVE is satisfied either. The recent passing mentions added to the page still don't meet those criteria Mztourist (talk) 08:26, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - failed WP:GNG before the recent additions, and still does. Onel5969 TT me 11:23, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
User:onel5969 When many of these passing mentions call him names such as "virtuoso", or refer to his "expert remastering" or he contributes pages to a book about his expertise and methods in the transfer from analog to digital - don't we have a preponderance? I did bring forth sources that were more than passing and two previous AfDs recognized that he was notable. I understand that 2005 was the wild west on WP, but the fact that everyone did a driveby on the article for 16 years just saying yeah its notable, without cleanup is wrong. At least now we have an article that can be properly assessed. There is more information out there with different search terms but I will move on unless there is some agreement that he is a notable expert in his field. Lightburst (talk) 14:20, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as fails WP:GNG with none of the sources providing WP:SIGCOV. References to Kendall in reliable sources are just passing - despite what qualifying adjectives they give. His Mousetrap software struggles even more with sourcing so I'm not buying that argument. I am tempted to purchase his Roland Kirk CDs now to see how they compare to my battered LPs but I just don't see the notability. Vladimir.copic (talk) 02:12, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. In full agreement with Spinningspark and Vladimir.copic: fails WP:SIGCOV due to passing mentions and it can't pass WP:CREATIVE without in-depth peer backing or in-depth RS backing. One adjective won't cut it. Pilaz (talk) 19:36, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Audio restoration. While Ted Kendall has done some prominent things, such as cleaning up old 78rpm records and restoring parts of the Goons Show and Dr Who audio, a lot of his achievements are in the pre-internet era and consequently it's difficult to find significant coverage to improve the article (most things I looked at are in the article already). I think the best thing to do is to put his achievements in a general article about what he does, where only having spot-checks in sources is less of an issue. The article I mentioned already namechecks several people anyway. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 21:57, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete As has been said above, coverage is limited to brief mentions and isolated qualifiers and adjectives. His awards also lack independent sourcing, not conferring notability. Avilich (talk) 18:45, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There should sufficient offline magzines and newspaper coverage in Nepali about her which is evident from the fact that she played as a lead female character in about 20 nepali movies. nirmal (talk) 12:34, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Leaning delete Delete Weak keep All three keep arguments are WP:TMBS and in my opinion need to be completely dismissed. @Usedtobecool: NEXIST states, However, once an article's notability has been challenged, merely asserting that unspecified sources exist is seldom persuasive, especially if time passes and actual proof does not surface.. The onus of proof is on you btw. You say "This may have usable SIGCOV". Well, that's some lazy defense, isn't it? Essentially saying, I haven't read the said book, but you go ahead find it, read it. Regarding, "Plenty of bluelinks in the filmography". All the bluelinks are unsourced too. Doesn't help your claim. For a persuasive argument, an editor arguing keep, needs to provide an WP:OFFLINE source, assuming as per User:Nirmaljoshi "There are no good online links", and unlike the offline source provided by Usedtobecool, the editor needs to claim that they have actually read it, and the source is reliable,verifiable,sigcov according to that editor. I'd recommend a delete for now, in absence of such source, without prejudice to anyone wanting a userfication, if they think they'll be able to produce a source in the future. - hako9 (talk) 20:06, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I am afraid you are mistaken. That was not a defence. This is not a courtroom. AFDs are not battles to be won. Someone had a concern. I said why they need not have it. I found a source that does not let me read the whole book but going by the TOC and the first few lines of the page the TOC points to, it is obvious that there is one complete page of chronological biography which starts with "Born to RM Karmacharya and Prema Shah in Lalitpur, Jal Shah ..." It is a group effort and I have no responsibility to do any more than I can. If I had said, "speedy keep", "snow keep", "strong keep" or whatever, and "trout the nom", you might have had a point.
    It's irrelevant what state the articles are in. As long as they are there, this article passes NACTOR. No one is stopping anyone from getting those articles deleted first, and then renomming. But we can not go down the rabbit hole trying to figure out the GNG-anchor for our SNG-based articles, not in one AFD. I have improved the article since it was AFDed by the way. And here is one in-depth online piece by an imminent journalist, which you can read to at least understand why I think we'd look ridiculous to delete this. Again, I am not linking this to win a battle. I am linking it because I found it and I want everyone to be able to see for themselves why I argue what I argue. Regards! Usedtobecool ☎️ 02:48, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • You can't in good faith, claim that this is significant coverage. Except for a few sentences, the article is about her mother. Also, is Online Khabar, a reliable source in Nepal? Can anyone from Nepal confirm or deny please. And remember that scrutiny of your claims in afd doesn't mean it's a battle for me. None of this actress' filmography indicates that any of those are notable films. So before asserting that she passes NACTOR, make sure there are reliable sources for Thuldai, Nepal Pyaro Chha etc. These films are one prod away from deletion. - hako9 (talk) 07:12, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      Online Khabar is reliable but not reputable enough for GNG; it has been cited sometimes by other reliable sources. And I did not say it was in a reliable source or was significant coverage, although the coverage is significant; I said it was written by an imminent journalist. I leave it to the readers to judge whether I was overreacting in my previous comment. Regards! Usedtobecool ☎️ 13:41, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry to drop in again. As i mentioned earlier, she is out of acting field now, hence there are no online info on her acting carrier. But the main stream media and gossip magzines still are intrested on her. For example:
-Coverage in mainstream media on her future carrier. [41]
-Seems she in USA and has been elected as an official in american-nepali organization. [42][43]
-Her opinion picked up by three different medias on weather she is going to come back Nepal. [44][45][46]
-Other coverages.[47][48] [49]

  • I cannot in good conscience vote keep here. None of these are sigcov, assuming any of them are even reliable sources in Nepal. This is basically a short interview and not WP:IS. I think others are self-explanatory. All of these look like fan blogs honestly. The standards for notability for BLPs regarding sigcov cannot be diluted just because of the bad state of affairs of Nepali media in covering their celebrities. It's fine by me, if the closing admin wants to close this discussion as keep/no-consensus without relisting again, but I am still leaning delete. - hako9 (talk) 13:38, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This would truly be a unique BLP though, where subject has acted in a dozen films, but no sources have been provided to claim any of those films are notable. And none of the dozen or so links provided above, satisfy all three conditions of significant coverage, reliable source and independent source. - hako9 (talk) 14:02, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have found more sources: Lux Film Awards for Actress in a leading role[50] Biography Bada Kaji (talk • श्रीमान् गम्भीर) 15:43, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Striked my delete vote since although I believe all above sources including those presented by User:Bada Kaji aren't reliable+independent+sigcov, it is highly likely that better sources exists, and I also believe we have conventionally kept articles that are this notable, so NEXIST is justified and a delete based on my above very stringent interpretation of policy is not. - hako9 (talk) 15:51, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep: I was unable to find reliable sources that meet WP:SIGCOV. The sources provided up to this point briefly mention Shah's acting career and give more weight to her chairman role with Nepali American Artists Association, her comments on living in the US or Nepal and her comments on acting again. Given the sources in this discussion and their content, a balanced, full-page article can't actually be written about Shah, and per WP:WHYN, a reliably-sourced full article is the goal. Shah's films Je Bho Ramrai Bho and Nepal Pyaro Chha are on the IMDB website, but I do not believe that is enough to pass WP:ENT.
My vote is based on the document Bada Kaji found, and National Film Awards (Nepal). Shah passes WP:ANYBIO for winning a Lux Film Award and a prestigious National Film Award in 2005. Heartmusic678 (talk) 11:35, 4 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. Apart from the nomination, all the contributions here have argued to keep the article, and the content in the article does pass verifiablity standards, so I cannot see a policy-based reason to overrule the will of the community. However, the current content of the article is really thin including some very obvious things true of embassies in general (e.g. "Ambassador is in charge of the embassy"). The fact that numerous sources were offered during the discussion might indicate an intent to expand the article. Unless that happens, merging with the India–Ukraine relations appears to be quite justified. Sjakkalle (Check!) 19:47, 6 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep unclear what WP:BEFORE search yielded, (to be fair, one can search High Commission of India/Embassy in Ukraine, Kiev or Kyiv and there's lot of noise), but I found the following:
Comment These individual AfD’s argue either two things, the notability of individual embassies or the underlying question whether all embassies are inherently notable or not. There are approximately 15,000 embassies in the world and the question boils down to whether that’s too many for Wikipedia and or whether the X-Y relations e.g. India–Ukraine relations pages are adequate. Absent significant coverage, I do expect many such embassy articles will remain stubs, but don’t see that as a problem. It’s structured information with strong potential for long term expansion. If a country/mission were to collapse/merge like German Democratic Republic I could see the argument for merging articles less likely to be expanded, but that’s not the case with these live institutions. For the sake of saving everyone’s time at AfD let’s have a proper discussion about fate of embassy articles in general for example here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject International relations#Embassy articles on Wikipedia ~ 🦝 Shushugah (he/him • talk) 10:58, 25 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    1. Significant coverage:
      1. Yong, Benjamin (March 2012). "Jason Chen inspires Vancouver". Charged. AX3 Multimedia. Retrieved 2021-10-31 – via Issuu.

        The article notes: "Jason studied business economics while attending UCLA (he graduated in 2010), and while in college his roommates saw his singing potential and encouraged him to sing cover songs and upload them to YouTube. It’s a good thing he did — he’s tackled everything from Bruno Mars (“Grenade”, “Just The Way You Are”), Nelly (“Just A Dream”) and even Beyonce (“If I Were A Boy”) to slightly less R&B and more eastern grooves like Wang Leehom (“Still In Love With You”) and David Tao (“Regular Friends”) netting him millions of views. He’s even caught the eye of celebs like Ryan Seacrest who posted his collabocover of Eminem’s Lighters on his website."

      2. "YouTube star Jason Chen in Manila May 29". The Philippine Star. 2015-05-13. Retrieved 2021-10-31 – via PressReader.

        The article notes: "Popularized by his wide vocal range and heartfelt renditions, Jason's official YouTube channel currently has 250 million video views and 1.2 million subscribers. The 26-year-old Taiwanese-American pop singer, who is based in Southern California, began his singing career at the age of 17, when he was inspired to sing to serenade a girl whom he was inviting to the prom. ... He was invited to perform in one of China's most popular TV shows, Day Day Up, with fellow singers Megan Nicole and Tiffany Alvord. In 2011, he released his first album titled Gravity (with Best Friend as the first single), which now has over 10 million views."

      3. 比比小姐 (2012-11-10). "發現好聲音:Music never sleeps…陳以桐Jason Chen" [Found a good voice: Music never sleeps...Chen Yitong (Jason Chen)]. 妞新聞 (in Chinese). Archived from the original on 2021-10-31. Retrieved 2021-10-31.

        The article notes from Google Translate: "Jason Chen was born in 1988, his Chinese name is Chen Yitong, and he graduated from UCLA Economics and Accounting. He is currently graduating from university and continues to tour in North America. Jason Chen's vocal adaptability is very high. He mainly sings pop music and R&B.

Chen has a Taiwanese mother and Taiwanese-Japanese father. In one song, he emphasizes the diversity among Asians, defying the stereotype that all Asians share the same cultural background. "Ain't a person that can tell us who we can or can't be," he raps. "We more than the language that we can or can't speak/Whether refugee or immigrant, alien or citizen/If you clumpin' us all together then you ignorant/That could ... how could two-thirds of the world all be the same?""

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Jason Chen (simplified Chinese: 陈以桐; traditional Chinese: 陳以桐) to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

Removing a musical performing group that came into existence in 1932, survived until 1995, and spawned a senior corps, would essentially be erasing history. In that time, from Capitolaires to Freelancers, the group has had thousands of performers and has performed in front of hundreds of thousands of spectators. The argument of "No evidence of significant placement" must be used by someone who does not understand the competition of DCI itself. Sacramento Freelancers has placed in the "Top 12" several times. That designation is a significant placement in the activity. The Sacramento Freelancers senior corps has won the competition at DCA. Being inside the "walled garden" of DCI does not remove significance from an item. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.244.44.161 (talk) 00:50, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. This article is actually pretty typical of the articles in this walled DCI garden, and I'll refrain from pruning it for the sake of demonstration. From the top, there is the ridiculous amount of detail in the history, another excessively detailed "sponsorship" section with primary (directory) links, the over-the-top "show summary" in all its detailed glory and no more verification than a link to the DCI, and an EL section with an alumni page and a DCI (spam) link. No, this needs to go. Drmies (talk) 16:10, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
