The current contents of this article should not stay under this title, as it is, for our purposes, a neologism: the framework essentially describes the work of Özlem Sensoy and Robin DiAngelo who do not use the term, with the citation of de Vita (2014) appearing to serve only to suggest coherence to the term. The previous AfD was closed as no consensus, but documented serious WP:SYNTH issues with the article; the attempts to repair them resulted in an article that is entirely misleading about the fact that the term was proposed by Lindsay and Pluckrose, who are introduced first in 'The Response' section. Note the WP:NEO policy requires that we have reliable sources tying the term we use for a topic with the characterisation of the topic we use: for the article as it stands, such reliable sources do not appear to exist.

The article was created this year and had it been created as a draft, it would be unlikely to pass AfC. I propose that the article be moved to draft space, since the attempt to solve the problems with the article in the course of the AfD resulted in the unacceptable article we have now. The writing in the article is mostly OK, apart from the essentially deceptive form the article takes, and it seems likely there is some home for much of the content. — Charles Stewart (talk) 22:07, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Move to draftspace per nom - This remains a neologism with essentially no usage outside a small activist group; its declared intent being to "brand" the social justice movement with a negative label.

The result was no consensus. There is a very clear majority for keeping, but the arguments on that side tend to be an assertion that the provided sources show that the subject meats SIGCOV, even though many of these sources either lack independence or give only passing mention to the association. Still, there is some merit to the keep argumet, SFREA's sources 9 and 10, while thin, did give some mention of activities that the assosociation has organized. Notability is a guideline, and I am unwilling to delete based on a guideline unless consensus supports that. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:54, 24 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Objection. Satisfies WP:NORG, as is featured in secondary sources including BBC[1], UK Government[2] press releases and resources [3], multiple sector news features consistently over the course of a decade, and is noted on the UNFCCC website as a COP26 official observer. Members include large organisations which easily satisfy notability such as Drax_Group, NatWest, Suez_Environnement, and Triodos_Bank, and National_Grid_plc.

  • Keep. There is sufficient independent coverage. Rathfelder (talk) 22:52, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Rathfelder:, would you mind showing the coverage because I wasn't able to find any. WP:SOURCESEXIST is a weak argument with out proof. The sources provided above are not sufficient, the BBC one is only a quote from a member and another quote of one of the stats they provide, the other 2 simply prove they exist and they all fail WP:ORGDEPTH. The article only refers to their own webpage. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 23:04, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • What do you expect apart from quotes from members? That is the coverage that associations of this sort generate. Rathfelder (talk) 07:17, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Then it fails WP:ORGDEPTH we need to see something written about the organization by someone besides themselves and we need to see it in independent reliable sources. A quote from a member is trivial coverage and does nothing to help support notability. If no one outside of the group has taken the time to write about the organization in any reliable sources then they do not meet the inclusion criteria.

  • I have added this source assessment table with my assessments on the sources provided thus far. What am I missing that makes this organization notable? McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 18:59, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have included more links which highlight wide coverage here. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Here, I have included references to pages which hopefully satisfy WP:ORGDEPTH - I understand this to be secondary sources devoted primarily to coverage of the topic at hand, as opposed to featuring supplementary quotes. [6] [7] [8] [9] For transparency, I am employed by this organisation and have a conflict of interest. However, this does not prevent me from a) presenting fact-based arguments according to standard Wikipedia protocol for why this page should avoid deletion, and b) suggesting improvements to the original article, as it is clear the article needs significant improvement and does not sufficiently reflect the coverage, significance, or scope of the organisation. I will suggest improvements to the article shortly, but hope that the page can avoid deletion before then. SFREA (talk) 11:13, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for you additional references and helping the discussion. I have added them to my assessment. Only 2 of them really do any sort of swaying for me but not enough yet to change my mind. The first one from letsrecycle is what we would generally call routine or trivial coverage of a merger and generally does not count towards establishing notability. However the second article by them does a much better job towards providing some significant coverage even though it is primarily on an organization they acquired. The rest did very little to help with notability, If we can find more like the second letsrecycle article about the REA, preferably by another media agency, this would potentially breach the inclusion criteria. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 15:49, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Would jointly written/commissioned public reports/publications/policy papers help satisfy WP:ORGDEPTH? SFREA (talk) 16:21, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, why? That's primary material. Drmies (talk) 16:30, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict)Within ORGDEPTH you find headings for "Examples of substantial coverage" and "Independant sources", which should help with understanding what we need to see to establish notability. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 16:44, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for adding these references to your assessment table. I readily admit I am not familiar with Wikipedia procedures, so forgive me my questions. As the REA is a trade association (a membership organisation), can I clarify that when you specify "member" in the assessment table, you mean "staff", as opposed to an organisational member (for example, Drax, as I mentioned in an earlier addition to this discussion)? If you do mean organisational member, then I would correct the table as all quotes featured are of direct organisational staff, so coverage is directly of the organisation (REA) as opposed to organisational members (e.g Drax). Regarding all sources related to Government (e.g. APPG, LDES Competition, Government speech), the intention was to demonstrate notability through interest in REA activities - the REA is not a public sector organisation, there is no need for Government engagement, and therefore the fact that there is engagement indicates a degree of "merited weight" that the REA carries. Which, in a non-wikipedia jargon sense, I would say qualifies as notability, but appreciate this might not help the case for keeping the REA page in this context. Regarding the link to the WRAP PAS110 page, as mentioned in my references, PAS110 is a scheme run by REAL, which is a subsidiary of the REA, as is the Biofertiliser Specification Scheme. Regarding the Let'sRecyle merger news item, could you please help me understand what differentiates a routine/trivial coverage of a merger from significant coverage of a merger? Assume this has to do with controversy. Finally, I would clarify that the Let'sReycle article concerning REA Organics is not about a legal subsidiary (such as Renewable Energy Assurance Ltd. (REAL)), but a practical internal division of member organisations - the separation of REA Organics to the REA has no external or legal meaning. If you feel any of these notes are appropriate, I would appreciate if you could integrate them into the source assessment table.SFREA (talk) 14:00, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Further to my text above, here is a list of further secondary sources which might support arguments that the topic at hand satisfies WP:SIGCOV.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]. Hopefully some of these WP:SIGCOV and indicate that there is some breadth to international coverage.SFREA (talk) 14:20, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete--I agree with nominator. "featured in secondary sources" is not much of an argument with sources like this when nothing is actually "featured"--a spokesperson is quoted, that's all. Rathfelder's "What do you expect apart from quotes from members? That is the coverage that associations of this sort generate" is also not an argument: what we expect, in deletion discussions, are secondary sources that discuss the subject. No coverage, no article. The nominator's analysis of the sources indicates just how weak the sourcing is here; "Sufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG" is thus not just a cliche, it's also just not true. This edit by User:Mean as custard indicates the provenance of the article--it may have started as a good-faith attempt, but it was hijacked pretty quickly by an obvious COI editor, and the subsequent pruning proved there was nothing there. No, McMatter did a good job with the analysis--the article should be deleted. And User:SFREA, I appreciate the fact that you disclosed your COI, but your links and your arguments should not win the day here. Drmies (talk) 16:30, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Context matters. Very few articles in Category:Trade associations have in depth coverage about their internal workings. What makes them notable is the fact that their spokespeople get coverage as legitimate representatives. Rathfelder (talk) 18:27, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Passes WP:SIGCOV per sources above. Disagree that they are trivial when viewed collectively.4meter4 (talk) 20:08, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There are many more (I would say hundreds) of sources which include coverage. If there is a critical point at which a sufficient number of references which provide coverage which wouldn't individually qualify as significant would satisfy WP:SIGCOV, then I would be happy to provide these.SFREA (talk) 14:00, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, the sum total of the sources gets it over the WP:SIGCOV threshold IMHO. MrsSnoozyTurtle 07:21, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Drmies. The stub of an article leaves me puzzled over what the organisation does, and the explanations of why the sources found can't really be used to write anything else are convincing. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:56, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep meets our guideline for WP:SIGCOV Lightburst (talk) 20:15, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – having perused all of the references cited above, I'm not finding anything that would get the Association over the WP:NORG hurdle. The grand majority do not provide significant coverage, consisting instead of brief passing mentions like "a report by the Association...found" or "according to such-and-so of the Association...". Neither enables us to write actual content about the organization, and thus they doesn't count toward notability. (Contra the comments above, combining trivial mentions only yields more trivial mentions, not sigcov.) The Letsrecycle.com pieces are the only ones that could suffice, but 1) it's arguably the sort of trade publication discouraged by WP:ORGIND, 2) barring significant coverage (not trivial mentions) by sources other than "media of limited interest and circulation", WP:AUD isn't met, and 3) multiple sources are required to establish notability. At the end of the day, our deliberately strict notability guidelines for organizations do not seem to be met. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:33, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Drmies and Extraordinary Writ. Taken as a collective and individually, the sources provided fail WP:SIGCOV and do not provide content for page expansion. The majority of the sources provide trivial coverage of the organization without going into detail, even in the articles where REA is not the main topic. Heartmusic678 (talk) 11:48, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. More sources are added below, all aiming to further demonstrate WP:SIGCOV. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] Further to comments by Rathfelder, I struggle to understand what is expected of satisfactory secondary sources with specific reference to trade associations (TA) - by their very nature, all TA labour is around specific lobbying subjects, such as a particular law, the case for economic support for specific technologies, or discussions surround recent issues such as the "shortage" of fuel in the UK, and consequently HGV drivers.
In this context, when would a trade association ever be highlighted by national news purely to discuss the association themselves, and not in the context of a topic that is a) newsworthy and b) they are actively working on. If the above is of importance, then many of the articles above highlight that, and a quick google of "Association for Renewable Energy and Clean Technology" (not a common name I can assure you) comes up with hundreds of hits. Consequently, are Wikipedia guidelines either suggesting that TAs should not be included ever (also further to Rathfelder's comment re Category:Trade associations)? Or that most articles re TAs in their current format are insufficient, and if so, can you please present a reasonable example of a source for a trade association which satisfies WP:SIGCOV? Finally, if a strong reason for not keeping the article is its current poor quality (which I do not dispute) I will provide an updated and rigorously referenced article within the next 24 hours which will of course still be up for editing, but will hopefully deal with some of this issue. However, my understanding is the current quality of an article should not have any impact on whether or not a topic satisfies notability guidelines. SFREA (talk) 15:34, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I have to say, !voting keep on this is quite a surprise to me. It is an extremely crappy stub about a political lobbying organization, sourced entirely to their own website, and the AfD is ballooned out with walls of text involving arguments from a paid employee of the organization trying to get it kept. It's a slam dunk "delete", the kind of "delete" that makes your hair stand on end and your heart throb with bloodlust. There is, however, one problem: they're right. At least as far as I can tell. In the Let's Recycle sources, I see what looks like an independent third-party source. I am open to being proven wrong on this, but their coverage of the REA seems fine to me. I mean, let's say that this is an invalid rationale, and the page has to instead be called (and about) solely the Renewable Energy Association (which clears GNG because the LR article is now about the subject)... would the article not be WP:RMed to its new name immediately anyway? The other piece on LR is, well, significant, and it's coverage. I have never been much for WP:ROUTINE or WP:MILL arguments, since they prove too much (if a gigantic monster obliterated New York City, you could truthfully say that the coverage is WP:ROUTINE since the New York Times does profiles on every monster who stomps the city flat). What it looks like is that media outlets decided the organization was worth writing articles about, which implies notability. jp×g 09:19, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This has been one of the best keep rationales so far. I would however like to make a single rebuttal our criteria generally requires multiple independent sources has published stories on the subject in this case the only one to have written on the subject in any significant coverage way has been LR. I'll be honest the LR articles almost have me changing my mind but I need to see someone else has written about this organisation. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 13:46, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: Multiple sources are using this organisation as a "goto" organisation for information and influential to UK Governemnet. Near 20 year history gives SUSTAIN . There's been no evidence of exploration of MERGE by those seeking delete; and there's at least one obvious merge target. Anything other than keep seems insane, especially given current climate/energy issues. I doubt sources are exhausted yet so insane.

DW.com is considered reliable by consensus(even though I don't like to use their slide articles). And you can't expect everyone to get a 20 minute analysis report, the group was also covered by BBC. I did not see where this computer barta is though. Greatder (talk) 13:23, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There is no BBC source there, and the Deutsche Welle article says explicitly that it's repeating WP:USERGENERATED content. That's not independent coverage as described in the WP:GNG. Yappy2bhere (talk) 22:23, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I added the BBC source in the article, the dw article is reviewed by editor দেবারতি গুহ and written by আরাফাতুল ইসলাম, and is not user generated content. Greatder (talk) 05:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete When evaluating sources we must consider not just the publisher, but also the author and the content. Except for Computer Barta (which puts other media reports in context, reports government reaction, and interviews three local computer experts), the sources merely uncritically repeat what has been posted (supposedly by the organiztion) on webpages that Wikipedia doesn't consider reliable sources, such as a Facebook fan page. The resulting articles are not reliable, not independent, and not secondary. Contrast them with the in-depth independent analysis of hacker group Anonymous in a source like [8]. As explained in WP:WHYN, without significant coverage in reliable, independent sources, we can't write an article that is complete, that doesn't contain rumor or gossip, and that is fair, balanced, and not promotional. --Worldbruce (talk) 04:49, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Worldbruce:DW.com is considered reliable by consensus(even though I don't like to use their slide articles). And you can't expect everyone to get a 20 minute analysis report, the hacking was also covered by BBC as seen in the articles references. It was covered in ndtv too. Greatder (talk) 14:05, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The Computer Barta article isn't reliable either. For example, it gives NDTV and Yahoo News as sources for the "20,000 websites" claim, but NDTV [9] used Xinhua's report (via its Bangladesh correspondent) [10] of the group's Facebook claims, and Yahoo News simply re-published the IANS copy+paste of the same Xinhua story [11].

  • Keep: The sources in Bengali indicated by Greatder seem reliable.

  • Delete All but one source is a report of a massive 2012 attack against Indian websites that (a) wasn't reported outside Bangladesh and (b) isn't substantiated by anything other than the group's own Facebook claims; most of those sources are playing telephone, repeating the group's Facebook claims via Xinhua's article [12], either directly by citing Xinhua or indirectly via other tertiary sources which ultimately trace back to Xinhua. Greatder's Deutsche Welle article perhaps says it best:

    "Various information about this is available on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and blogs" [via Google Translate; emphasis mine].

    What we have here is a single source supporting one attack on one website, and a several reports of an incident that is known only from a Facebook post and was never independently confirmed. It's a hoax--real hacks are easy to confirm, e.g. www.google.com/search?q=india+pakistan+hackers. So, I see one WP:RS for one insignificant prank--not a notable group.

  • Strong keep Founding of an organization, with the potential to become a third party, that receives this much media attention: NPR, NYT, CNN, CBS and many more is notable. The founder of the party, Yang, who was well-known as a Democrat, leaving the Democratic, and founding this party, is also an unusual occurrence, but makes this that much notable. Well sourced article and it's certainly not a stub. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pennsylvania2 (talkcontribs) 23:40, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
    Wikipedia is not the news. Not everything that becomes a news story (especially in today's 24/7 news cycle) is independently notable enough to warrant its own article.

    The "potential to become a third party" is neither grounds for an article nor grounds to delete the article. This political organization is notable enough to warrant an article even if it does not develop into a true third party.

  • Strong keep The founding of this political organization has received coverage from notable and credible sources such as NPR, NYT, CNN, CBS and many other - this establishes enough notability for the org to have a Wikipedia article. Personal views on Yang's intelligence or the creation of third parties in the United States should not factor into the decision as others in this discussion have argued.

    Yes, lots of coverage, not-so-coincidentally timed with Yang's book release and tour. Yang, his ideas, and perhaps his book are notable, but not a day-old "party". Reywas92Talk 13:55, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I don't really see a reason why this article shouldn't exist. The subject has received a decent amount of notable media coverage and the person behind it is a fairly well known figure in U.S. politics today.

Basil the Bat Lord (talk) 01:05, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • The person behind it being fairly well known does not justify this being an independent article. Hence, why I believe it suffices for now to simply leave it as a section in Andrew Yang's own article. SecretName101 (talk) 05:16, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep In general, I would be interested to hear any arguments for the negative consequences of keeping any existing article--provided that it is about a genuine entity in the world. The Forward Party exists. It is not Andrew Yang. Why should there NOT be an article about it? Other than a negligible increase in server costs and an even milder affect on search efficiency, I think you'd be hard-pressed to even make a case for why an article about an actual political entity shouldn't exist. Obviously there are plenty of reasons to edit or correct an article, and if such errors exist, then by all means correct them. Though he founded it, The Forward Party is NOT Andrew Yang, and it is reasonable to expect the party (and the article) to grow independently of Andrew Yang. At the very least, I can say it already served a useful purpose, for I myself found it valuable in linking me to the Forward Party's website. Googling "Forward Party" brought me first to Wikipedia, and I'd have had a harder time trying to find the link by scrolling through Andrew Yang's article. Additionally, I'd urge everyone to be wary of attempts at censorship. Articles of a political nature are likely to attract attempts at censorship. Does acknowledging this reality indicate my failure to assume good faith? Perhaps. But I speak not of any particular case, but simply of the importance of acknowledging that if anyone were to attempt censorship of a Wikipedia article, this is precisely the sort of article where we should expect to see it. 76.189.243.122 (talk) 01:32, 8 October 2021 (UTC) 76.189.243.122 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

@76.189.243.122: It undermines Wikipedia's prestige to be having articles on non-notable subjects. Also, if the threshold for article notability is eliminated, Wikipedia will become unmanagable. Every joe shmoe will create a article about their own house's uninteresting history, every mildly successful local realtor would create their own self-promotional article, every carwash would create an article about their business, etc. etc. Wikipedia does not and will not have enough competent editors to keep up with all the low-notability articles that would be created, and, therefore, the accuracy of articles would fall down the toilet.

I cannot even find a single media source covering that endorsement. That's how non-notable that is. It adds nothing to the party's notability. A (so far) non-consequential endorsement of a single candidate is not a grounds for an article, nor is coverage merely speculating about the future of the party (WP:CRYSTALBALL), which only exists because Yang created the party (if I created the same party and taken the same steps, would it be getting any coverage at this stage, no.) SecretName101 (talk) 23:33, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Since this is a PAC that was started by a major former presidential candidate who still has a large following, it shouldn't be judged based on whether it is an official political party yet. It already has notoriety due to its founder, even if it fails or succeeds. At the same time, major news outlines, such as the New York Times in an October 4th article, confirm his attempt to create the Forward Party as an official third party in the United States. -WKHR 21:54, 9 October (UTC)

"Potential success" is WP:CRYSTALBALL. And one instance of "independent" coverage does not establish notablity. Hardly an argument for keeping. Also, tried finding CNN videos mentioning it. Only found this one, which clearly only mentions it because of Yang, and pretty much argues it will likely be inconsequential. SecretName101 (talk) 23:26, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's clear you still haven't read the relevant notability guideline. JoelleJay (talk) 19:38, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I read the article and then I read the policy, then I read the article, then the policy, then I nominated the article for deletion. But, you're so right. You wise, all-knowledgeable editors are so right. Obviously, I did not understand the policy which says:
Having published work does not, in itself, make an academic notable, no matter how many publications there are. Notability depends on the impact the work has had on the field of study. This notability guideline specifies criteria for judging the notability of an academic through reliable sources for the impact of their work.
So, yes, I thought that meant the college president had to have some kind of academic achievements. But what I now understand is that this policy protects college presidents with no achievements, except being college presidents, from having their pages deleted. The policy also says, "The criteria above are sometimes summed up as an "Average Professor Test": When judged against the average impact of a researcher in a given field, does this researcher stand out as clearly more notable or more accomplished?" Applying that test, this academic is entirely non-notable. Where are his books? Where are his scholarly articles, at the very least? And are you actually trying to make me laugh by saying, with an apparently straight face, that Tarleton is a major university? OMG, the Wikipedia spell checker didn't even recognize it.
STOP bullying people who disagree with you. --Literaturegirl (talk) 20:23, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(EC) And yet there is this extremely straightforward instruction:

Academics meeting any one of the following conditions, as substantiated through reliable sources, are notable.
...
6. The person has held a highest-level elected or appointed administrative post at a major academic institution or major academic society.

The paragraph you quote applies to academics being assessed solely on C1 impact. I happen to agree that C6 gives a lot of leeway and presidents should really be evaluated the way CEOs are since their appointment is rarely achieved through actual academic impact. However, that is a discussion that must be brought at NPROF for consensus-building, not at individual deletions. The criteria for what constitutes "major" are not well-defined but prior AfDs have mostly affirmed long-standing public universities, especially those in the US, are sufficient.

The result was no consensus. Complaints over the WP:POINTY language of the nomination have inhibited participation and productive discussion. While some good faith attempts at policy based arguments were made by TimTempleton and St★lwart111, its unlikely that a clear consensus will develop given the objections over the nomination itself. It would be best to wait a few weeks before re-nominating in order to give conflict time to deescalate. Any future nomination should follow AFD policy and be written with extreme care in language to avoid similar objections and set the groundwork for a productive AFD discussion.

The consensus from all who gave input in the first nomination process was to have the articlespace deleted, as it does not meet the criteria for WP:BIO, WP:GNG, and WP:SIGCOV. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. (Redacted)

In this second nomination, the subject still lacks notability and WP:SIGCOV. Multi7001 (talk) 19:42, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • CommentNeutral:*Null and void: per the earliet nom. this has been irregularly raised. No objection to a correctly raised third nomination. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 19:36, 5 October 2021 (UTC) I am choosing to recuse from this highly disrupted AfD where the nom. has left allegations about be at the top of the nom. I have seen my !vote collapsed and uncollapsed by good faith people but ultimately if not null and voided will inevitably need DRV where peoples may be WP:TROUTEed. To be clear I have no objection to an immediate 3rd nom. where the immutability of the discussion is respected; and welcome the table suggested by the nom. of a variation thereof to be presented. This AfD perhaps is useful as a training example for the nom. but little other purpose. Please also note Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#AfD interference and allegations. Thankyou.

  • Speedy Close or Procedural Close: With recommendation to closer to make it clear there is no objection to immediate renomination. (The hope on such a renomination is the nominator (and others) will not keep changing the nomination after it is posted but follow proper discussion ettiquette). To quote perhaps loosely from the ANI discussion: "The ongoing AfD will not lead to anything worthy, and it has caused and will keep causing people to waste their time. So it's disruptive" & "he first thing to do is to call for speedy close or procedural close from within the AFD". Three points: I have fingers all over this, I may have bias in making this vote; and I tried to do this over 12 hours ago but failed to hit PUBLISH rather than REVIEW and lost the edit. I do expect the the non personal attack source analysis etc. to be brought to any re-nominated AfD; the key reason for call to close to prevent peoples waste of time. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 23:24, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Do not close the AfD. This article has been nominated twice in a short period of time. It's been at AfD almost continuously for the last three weeks. The first AfD closed as "null outcome", which isn't a clear result but certainly wasn't an indication that the article deserved either keeping or deletion. Let's have this discussion here to the end, whether that be "keep", "delete", or "no consensus". I am not expressing a recommendation of my own because I haven't yet started to care either way. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:36, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Metropolitan90 as long as that nominating statement is allowed to remain, any delete result is almost guaranteed to be overturned at DRV for the chilling effect it has on good-faith participation. The only result that will ever stick is keep, rendering this AFD completely pointless. Stlwart111 02:02, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The correct thing to do here was for somebody to redact the obvious personal attack. The AfD otherwise seems to have a valid rationale (whether it is correct or not), so there is not a valid reason to speedy close this. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 14:25, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
An out-of-process nomination, two hours after another was closed, with a bunch of (the same) technical mistakes, peppered with personal attacks, lunched to make a point... there's five reasons to close this without thinking too hard. Admins must have pins and needles from all of the sitting-on-hands that has been going on lately. Stlwart111 23:56, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Having !voted in the previous discussion, I am still mulling this one over. The article's main contributor has added a few sources since the last nomination. With the addition of the sources from Cincinnati Public Radio, we are starting to lean towards sufficient notability. Add in the selection as a NASA NIAC fellow, which was already known, she might begin to qualify either under WP:NSCIENTIST or WP:ANYBIO. I'll think it over for a couple more days, although I think if we could find just one more suitable source (secondary, independent, reliable), I'd feel just fine about changing from last time and keeping this one. As a side note, there seems to be an unusual amount of conflict between the article contributor and nominator. The nominator's insinuations in the opening statement are completely inappropriate and discussions between them both throughout the process have been...uncharitable. My own two cents are that, in order to avoid further conflict, both should avoid commenting on this AfD further and let the process simply carry itself out. -Pax Verbum 05:25, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - As I see it, she just doesn't pass notability test. GoodDay (talk) 14:45, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Procedural Keep - I have avoided actually !voting here because I was of the view that this sort of nonsense shouldn't be entertained, or dignified with a response. To be clear, in addition to the personal attacks and insinuations from the nominator, this nomination was clearly pointy; it was first (incorrectly) nominated for deletion while Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aerospace Research Systems, Inc was open and leaning towards merge and redirect to this this article. The first nomination of this article was procedurally closed and this (equally incorrect) nomination was launched in its place two hours later. It is clearly designed to achieve the delete outcome that the nominator advocated for at that related AFD (in addition for providing a opportunity to publish personal attacks). This whole thing is incredibly poor form. Want an actual discussion about notability or an opportunity to fix any issues the article might have? Follow WP:BEFORE and you'll have plenty. Stlwart111 23:56, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • And just in case that isn't enough... good old fashioned keep per WP:ANYBIO for having made a significant contribution to her field. Until recently we had articles for 3 of her contributions to aeronautical engineering including Star Sailor Energy, Artificial neural membrane, and Aerospace Research Systems, Inc. #3 was merged to her article (as above), #1 was preemptively merged to her article, and #2 remains. But the fact remains she has made those contributions to her field and they have been recognised for their significant by her peers who have subsequently interviewed her and written about her to discuss said contribution. Stlwart111 00:17, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - the sourcing isn't there to demonstrate notability. I did a Google search for additional media coverage, including Google Scholar to see if her papers were cited and we could try with WP:NSCIENTIST, as suggested above, but came up empty. If her companies were notable, they'd be candidates for their own articles, but I can't find decent coverage for them either. Fails WP:GNG.

1. Whether or not coverage is local is irrelevant. 2. This type of coverage is usually considered SIGCOV in American football, meaning he clearly meets GNG. 3.

  • Meh. Some of what's cited above appears to qualify as SIGCOV, and some of the sources are reliable, so this may qualify under GNG. On the other hand, he never had any significant accomplishments as a college player. Per stats, he caught only 16 passes for 294 yards with one touchdown while on the Ohio State roster -- and this despite having had five years of eligibility. Given these minimal accomplishments at the college level (and zero accomplishments at the pro level), I don't see much encyclopedic value. Cbl62 (talk) 22:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I received a notice about this since I'm technically the article creator (even though all I did was transfer it from the main article), so I ran a few searches. It looks like there's a chapter on the topic in this book (starting pg 165), part of which can be seen in the preview. I also found brief discussions here and here, although they are not the main topic in either case. Sunrise (talk) 03:38, 22 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Easily passes WP:SIGCOV. Noam Chomsky writes on it here and speaks on it here. There are two quality refs already cited in the article, and plenty more RS in google books and google scholar. The article is not in such bad shape that WP:TNT is warranted. WP:AFD is not cleanup.

  • Comment this is a strange one. Is the Port of Poulsbo just the port (the harbour) for the City of Poulsbo, Washington? If so, then we're talking about a place and should apply WP:GEOLAND, right? By way of an example, the city of Newcastle, Australia is a city, and the Port of Newcastle is the seaport within Newcastle Harbour. In turn, it is operated by the Newcastle Port Authority. The authority needs to pass WP:GNG (or WP:NCORP, depending on your proclivities), but the city, port and port authority are all different entities. In this instance we have both a Poulsbo Yacht Club and Poulsbo Port Commission (two other organisations involved). Stlwart111 07:03, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, I saw evidence that the use of the phrase "Port of Poulsbo" might refer to an actual port, but I don't really think that matters because I'm pretty sure the current article about a specific marina. The current article doesn't say what it is in the lead, but there is a "Port of Poulsbo Marina" a bit into the article, and the user who created it seems to have been interested in marinas. Either way, what's there and what I saw in the reliable sources didn't indicate that this particular topic as-written is something worth preserving. I think it might be reasonable to delete and red link it for a possible new article or possibly redirect to the city for expansion later. Izno (talk) 14:31, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    The article might be about a marina but it doesn't reference a specific company that runs it and the content should probably be focused on the location. Incidental reference can be made to any organisation involved, but I don't think the subject here needs to pass WP:NCORP; it's a place, not a company. Stlwart111 00:47, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Izno, just to be clear, I've seen your other nominations of non-notable commercial marina operations and believe you're right in each of those instances. I think this article just happened to get it wrong. They may have intended to write about the marina (within the port) but have written about the port itself, which I think is notable. Port of Poulsbo Marina would not be notable. Stlwart111 06:11, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - per WP:GEOLAND. I've done some work to clarify that the article is about the geographical location and not any particular commercial enterprise responsible for its management. Its owner, from what I can tell, is the city of Poulsbo itself. Stlwart111 04:17, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
WP:GEOLAND: "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable". The port is a legally recognised place (in fact, it has a specific, City-appointed commission), and the sources confirm it is populated, both on land, and with "liveaboards". Stlwart111 01:26, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - the article describes the entity/organization, as the geographic location is not independently notable. It's a bog-standard public marina that has one notable article in The Seattle Times but otherwise only routine mentions. SounderBruce 07:00, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

      The article notes from Google Translate: "The exterior design of the Garden Hotel came from the world-renowned architect I.M. Pei. This is the only time I. M. Pei, who was born in Guangzhou, has designed a building in Guangzhou. Pei, who is good at using glass, set up a round arched awning at the front entrance of the Garden Hotel, and a checkered ceiling made up of metal strips. Each is embedded with glass bricks, and the sunlight during the day and the light at night are reflected by 1320 glass bricks. Next, the hotel is dazzling."

      The article further notes from Google Translate: "Pei later recommended the Hong Kong architect Situ Hui to preside over the main design of the Garden Hotel to Li Mingze. The interior design of the hotel is as close to Pei’s modernist design style as possible. Situ Hui used Foshan’s traditional marble murals to embellish them. The stone murals later became important works of art in the Garden Hotel. Among them, the front of the hotel lobby The 150-square-meter large-scale gold-inlaid mural "A Dream of Red Mansions" is the most famous. Mr. Jin Yong once commented: "If you enter the Grand View Garden, you will be in the Rongguo Mansion.""

      The article notes from Google Translate: "As the first batch of high-end hotels built by domestic foreign investment after China's reform and opening up, the Guangzhou Garden Hotel was jointly initiated by Liao Chengzhi, former vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress and Hong Kong celebrity Li Mingze, with a total investment of nearly one billion Hong Kong dollars. Preparations for the hotel began in 1979. The concept design was carried out by the internationally renowned architect and designer Pei I.M. Yang Shangkun, then secretary of the Guangzhou Municipal Party Committee and former state chairman, laid the foundation, and a generation of great man Deng Xiaoping wrote the name of the store by himself. On August 28, 1985, the Guangzhou Garden Hotel was fully opened; in July 1990, it was rated as a five-star hotel for foreigners by the National Tourism Administration, becoming one of the earliest five-star hotels in my country; in July 2007, it was rated as a five-star platinum star in China Class hotel; In 2010, it became the official headquarters hotel of the 16th Guangzhou Asian Games."

      The article notes from Google Translate: "Guangzhou Garden Hotel, opened in 1985, is currently the largest five-star business hotel in China. Its birth and development have been enthusiastically supported by leaders at all levels of the central, provincial and municipal levels, and celebrities from Hong Kong, Macau, and at home and abroad. It is hailed as the fruit of reform and opening up and a model of Sino-foreign cooperation."

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow The Garden Hotel, Guangzhou (simplified Chinese: 广州花园酒店; traditional Chinese: 廣州花園酒店) to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

A (low quality) dictionary definition, with insufficient potential to be expanded to an article. The claim that this Greek term means "the body as a dwelling place for the spirit" in one specific rather unclear Biblical passage represents an unverifiable religious viewpoint[19] that is not particularly supported by the actual source text and is not reflected in many translations, which translate it as simply meaning "a home".[20][21][22][23][24] Deprodded without explanation.  --Lambiam 16:53, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. This book describes the concept in exactly those terms. I'm also seeing several non-RS sources with similar material. SpinningSpark 20:59, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In this source it represents a sense ostensibly inspired by the author's religious viewpoint, not one present in the sense in which it is used everywhere else except in this particular Bible verse. So this might be used as original research to establish that some Christian authors read a spiritual sense in an otherwise commonplace Greek word. This might belong in an article with a title like Religious interpretations of the term oiketerion, if we can find secondary sources discussing this. You can find such discussions for many Greek terms in Paul's letters, such as for apostasia,[25] often in untransliterated form like for the term κατέχων,[26] but I did not see a similar discussion for oiketerion.  --Lambiam 08:39, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Our article 2 Corinthians may seem a plausible place to retain the material content, but even there it is IMO undue.  --Lambiam 08:46, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that notability is weak, hence my weak keep. My point was only that this is not an "unverifiable religious viewpoint" as claimed in your nom. It is a viewpoint that can be verified. On the name, ideally there should be a bracketed disambiguator like Oiketerion (biblical concept). The problem there is that WP:QUALIFIER prevents the use of disambiguators on pages that don't need disambiguating. That could be solved by creating a soft redirect to Wiktionary. 2 Corinthians is definitely an UNDUE place to put it for something so weakly supported. The ideal target would be the religous belief system from which this arose, which I'm afraid I can't identify. SpinningSpark 09:19, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The claim that in this context the Greek term represents the body of the resurrected believer – some go as far as to state that it "clearly" does so[27] – is not verifiable. This unverifiable claim is informed by a religious viewpoint. The sources that state this represent a non-authoritative religious viewpoint. The fact that this viewpoint, abstracting from its validity, exists is obvious. It is less obvious that – apart from the question whether reporting this would give undue weight to it – this can be established without venturing into the realm of original research. How is this observation not an analysis by us of primary-source material?  --Lambiam 14:28, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure I get what point you are driving at. Of course it's not verifiable in the scientific experimental sense. No religious belief is, but that's not the kind of verifiability Wikipedia needs. And what makes a religious viewpoint authoritative, they all lack any kind of authority as far as I am concerned. If the article was claiming this was the view of the Anglican Church that would be different. An authoritive source for that is conceivable. But the article makes no such claim, only the weasely "...has been interpreted..." SpinningSpark 15:44, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I was not trying to make a point, but merely to clarify what I meant in the nomination by the words "unverifiable religious viewpoint", which referred to a specific claim about the meaning of the Greek term as used in the Bible. That claim was quite explicitly made in an earlier version of the article, the one I originally prodded. None of the three supplied references cited a reliable source (in the Wikipedia sense). Yet this very claim is the only possible argument for notability; if you remove it, nothing of potential encyclopedic interest remains.  --Lambiam 17:27, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
In that case I don't think we have too much to disagree on. I agree that without the claim on the Biblical meaning the page is not suitable as a Wikipedia article (per NOTDICTIONARY) and that if that claim cannot be cited then it should be deleted. But since I did find a source directly supporting the claim (actually, I found three book sources, but two of them come from self-publishing houses) then I'm still at weak keep.

  • Weak delete. Right now the article is a pure DICTDEF. Sourcing presented here is very weak (the second source is in German and was presented without any analysis or indication the editor who found it even reads German, and there is no evidence it meets WP:SIGCOV). The third source does not seem to meet SIGCOV either, but there is a possibility of merging and redirecting to Second Epistle to the Corinthians, perhaps? Ping me if better sources are found and I'll revise my vote. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:40, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- No objection to renaming to Oiketerion (biblical concept). The classification of several references as "unreliable" is in fact WP:OR by a WP editor. Lenski (who is cited) is a respectable author of commentaries, which I have seen cited. Thayer (quoted verbatim) in biblicalapps (ref 5) was a leading biblical lexicographer (of Cambridge, Mass), originally published in 1835. My own copy is a 1977 edition, printed in 1983; I just checked it. As the word appears in two places in the New testament merging it to either would be inappropriate and would probably unbalance the target article. There is probably scope for expansion, discussing the theological concept involved. I am therefore removing the "unreliable" tags. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:07, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. All concepts discussed in the Bible can be assummed to be notable, because they are covered in earlier specialized encyclopedias. DGG ( talk ) 09:56, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    The term is used in the Bible, which is not the same as being discussed. The term ταμεῖον (tameion) is used four times in the Bible, for example in Luke 12:24. Can you identify an "earlier specialized encyclopedia" covering this concept?  --Lambiam 20:49, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Nothing indicates that this is anything more than a dictionary entry, let alone a "biblical concept" (whatever that means) with inherent notability. Andrew D's first source seems to be more a catalog of that and related words (not just 'oiketerion') in funerary inscriptions than actual scholarship discussing this specific term. The second is a passing mention which amounts to a dictionary definition. The other sources are also basic dictionary entries.

Two sources not authored by Williams are listed in the external links section. The Han paper is a masters degree dissertation and therefore not considered peer reviewed.

Given that the noteworthy page Entity–relationship model is in desperate need of help itself, no point in spending multiple users' efforts talking about this page. Just delete forever and be done. Ode+Joy (talk) 13:03, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete although not as emphatic as Ode+Joy perhaps, since there might be some contribution from the sources at the intersection of entity-relationship model and a real database management system implementation. Maybe put a sentence or two in the ER model article about this terminology at best. W Nowicki (talk) 17:44, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@W Nowicki: The pdf I saw was self published by Lazy Software. I looked on Amazon and not clear who the publisher is. If you somehow get the real book and want to add a few paragraphs please do, but it can not be done in a sentence or two. The long and short of it is that this is an exhumation of the CODASYL model painted with an ER surface. I am pretty sure no single implementation of this is used in any Fortune 2000 company. If there is something to be fixed, it is the page for CODASYL model itself. It is pretty weak. Ode+Joy (talk) 20:23, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment:Keep: - But should probably be moved to Associative Data Model where hits are more prevalant. I am assuming Associative Data Model and Associative Model of Data.

    I doubt that a capitalised title is appropriate here. It is not for others to provide sources that this is rubbish, it is for those who want to keep it (ie, only you so far) to provide sources showing notability which so far, is very weak. SpinningSpark 18:13, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I agree its weak. I've been tracking this for some time, to a degree waiting to get space to make a better, fuller, explanation and source analysis. But time seems short for me and its appropriate for me to make my comments known. On the external links of the article (Minghui, 2001) uses the term Associate Data Model and (Homan, Kovacs, 2009) use the term Associate Database Model in their titles. Its for a clerker to analyse the situation. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 19:34, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Leader of the Opposition (Japan)[edit]

The Japanese political system does not provide for the position of 'Leader of the Opposition'. There are numerous opposition parties in Japan, and there is no official discrimination between them. The article claims that the Japanese name of this supposed post is '野党の指導者', but this doesn't make much sense in Japanese, and I can find no evidence of its use anywhere. Japan does not have a Westminster form of government, and there is no 'convention' that produces a Leader of Opposition in Japan. Basically, this article is original research, and should be deleted.

If you search for 野党の指導者 (which is just a generic expression for "leader of a non-government party") the first page of hits are all about countries other than Japan (Russia, mostly).

Fiona Clark's body of work in education, spanning 25 years, has becoming increasingly prolific among scholars, students and academics at universities and other places of learning, so much so, that an article in Wikipedia would assist these learners and educators in their citation and provide a reference point for clarification. Her work stretches internationally, not only with the published work, but also her collaborations in Japan with Lead Teacher and presenter Naomi Toland; in the USA with leading psychologist Martin Seligman; and among educational settings in the UK. University College London invited Fiona to collaborate on a Knowledge Exchange Programme when they discovered the important research she is conducting regarding the impact of creativity on the brain to help regulate emotion and behaviour, and improve the person's overall wellbeing. This is linked with Dr Daisy Fancourt's work in the same field - and has become significant in helping heal children and adults suffering from mental illness. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dolly4321 (talkcontribs) 17:47, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dolly4321 The waterstones link you provided is not what WP considers to be a reliable source that is independent from the subject. Rather, it is a user-submitted "review" on a webpage to sell books; which is analogous to a "review" on Amazon. What would be considered an independent reliable source would be a book review featured in a peer-reviewed journal; newspaper article, or the like. See: WP:RS for more information. The other link seems to be an event or speaker booking website. Could you please tell us if you have a connection to Fiona Clark?

  • Delete and restore redirect. I found news coverage for New Zealand photographer Fiona Clark, entertainment executive Fiona Clark, Ecuadorian-Irish film festival director Fiona Clark, and founder of McGill Community for Lifelong Learning Fiona Clark. I found news reports by financial reporter Fiona Clark, and multiple scholarly book reviews for Victims, Perpetrators or Actors? Gender, Armed Conflict and Political Violence, co-edited by independent scholar Fiona C. Clark, and for Ireland and Medicine in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries: The History of Medicine in Context, co-edited by Fiona Clark, a historian of medicine at Queen's University Belfast. These searches did not turn up any coverage of or reviews for psychologist and children's book author Fiona Clark, the subject of the nominated article. Perhaps there are too many other more-notable Fionas Clark making the searches difficult; there is still time for someone to demonstrate notability. But with no evidence of notability in the article itself, none in the earlier comments here, and none in my searches, the conclusion is clear. We could probably make a dab page instead of a redirect, but not unless/until someone creates articles on the some of the others. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:35, 12 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

My !vote is weak, but there appears to be non-routine coverage of her journalism career and multiple reviews of her book (also including her response to and a reply from the Business Standard reviewer), so there appears to be more than one event for which multiple independent and reliable sources have found her 'worthy of notice' over time.

The result was redirect to Features of the Marvel Universe#Mystical artifacts. Appropriate content may be merged to that article at editorial discretion. Avilich made a convincing case for deletion and the keep votes did not provide sufficient evidence that the subject passes GNG to rebut that argument. However, many of the keep voters and the nominator offered merge/redirect as a viable alternative; leading to a consensus to do so per WP:PRESERVE and WP:ATD.

Fictional book, article is 99% plot summary and list of appearance, there is no reception or analysis. In January I prodded this with " The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline requirement nor the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) supplementary essay. WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar." User:BOZ then proposed a merge to Features of the Marvel Universe#Mystical artifacts - but sadly, did not start a discussion. PROD was removed by User:Haleth due to "merge has been proposed", but again, no discussion was carried out (I was also not notified of deprodding nor of the merge proposal, despite my request for such a notification). The lonely merge tag was killed by an IP in March [29]. Since the merge discussion failed, as did the PROD process, I think it is time to discuss this here. I am not opposed to a merge of the few key points to the proposed target, but I don't think this has enough recognition/significance (notability...) to stay as a stand-alone article. PS. The best source I found was [30] but it's just a plot summary, and it's focus in not on Darkhold but on AIDA (List_of_Marvel_Comics_characters:_A#AIDA). The book is just a prop that merits inclusion in a list (assuming said list is notable, btw... - but that's for another discussion).

WP:BEFORE did not reveal any significant coverage on Gnews, Gbooks or Gscholar." User:Etzedek24 deprodded this with a comment "there's enough to merge" but did not suggest a merge target. Justice League could be plausible, but right now it doesn't even mention this parody. The current article for Just'a Lotta Animals has no reception or such, just plot summary and list of appearances, so I am not sure what could be merged there. Lead, I guess, but it is unreferenced anyway...

  • Redirect - If this were to be redirect/merged anywhere, the best target would be Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew!, as they were created for, and made all of their appearances outside of brief cameos, in that series. They're actually mentioned throughout that article already in fact. There is really no significant non-plot coverage in reliable secondary sources available, as they were merely a part of the notable Captain Carrot comics, and not a particularly notable group of their own. As the basics of what this team was, and their notable appearances in storylines, is already covered at the target article, and there is not really any reliably sourced content, I am not really seeing much that would really be appropriate to merge, and a redirect would be sufficient. Rorshacma (talk) 15:02, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Draftify. I need to review this in more detail - GScholar and GBook give zero hits, but the problem may be due to the name of the place having alernative renderings from Cyrillic into Latin English (in other words, finding sources for this is harder than usual). Anyway, sourcing is a major issue here. This is what GCB presumably means by the ArbCom's recommendations: Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Antisemitism_in_Poland#Amendment_(May_2021). TL;DR it strongly encourages " a peer-reviewed scholarly journals, an academically focused book by a reputable publisher, and/or an article published by a reputable institution)" in this topic area. The sources in the article don't appear to meet this recommendation (they seem to be to newspapers and like, some of which may be partisan, Ukrainian press is not a particularly neutral source when it comes to this topic), and if we remove them, ArbCom remedy makes it difficult to re-add them. That in turn means the article is theoretically unreferenced. Or, ArbCom aside, the sources in the article are very weak. For controversial topics like this we should to be better. For now, if better sources are not found, I'd suggest draftifying this in the creator's userspace. A mention of this tragedy may be relevant in the article about the history of this village, but the notability of this tragedy is also unclear. We need reliable scholarly sources that discuss it. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:55, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. There are like 20 different ways to write the name of this village (like Gonchiy Brod or Gończy Bród, h/g o/i and over vowel changes) and there are lots of sources in Ukrainian and even sources in the language of the murderers, Polish. Covered in several pages in book edited by historian Yaroslav Isayevich ([31][32]) and published by NASU Institute of History of Ukraine: Волинь і Холмщина 1938–1947 pp.: польсько-українське протистояння та його відлуння. Дослідження, документи, спогади. For a source in English, The Day (Kyiv) is a broadsheet newspapers andwrote this coverage.--Erin Vaxx (talk) 10:40, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, or perhaps draftify. There is confusion here around translation and it could be a mistake to delete. I think the article should be retained in some form while the sourcing issues are resolved. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:11, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I don't know whether this should be deleted or not. Outside the few newspaper sources, which may not be reliable, there does not seem to be any coverage. I consulted a couple major works on the Volhynian Massacres (like Motyka 2011) and there's no mention although that may possibly be due to a difference in name spelling. But it does seem like notability, if any, for this particular event, is recent and derived mostly from a photo op by the Ukrainian president. The thing is, there were hundreds of similar massacres committed between 1942 and 1945 by Ukrainian nationalists in Volhynia and Galicia - so... should there be an article on every single one? I recall this coming up a few years ago and a user who created such articles getting warned/banned and their articles deleted. So why this one but not the hundreds of other ones?

  • Keep. Book by historian Исаевич, Ярослав Дмитриевич is significant. The memorial received a state visit by President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko so that's a sign of significance, and that was covered plenty too.--Droid I am (talk) 09:19, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Which book? Are you saying there is a book dedicated to this tragedy? As for a presidential visit, WP:NOTINHERITED needs to be kept in mind. If a visit generated plenty of coverage (an assertion that isn't well proven at this point), then the visit is notable. This doesn't translate into giving notability to other topics. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:23, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify per Piotrus. Articles on historically contentious topics that lack sufficient sources for verification are a serious hygiene risk for us, especially if the sources are not in English. The AfC process is better for fixing articles than the AfD process, providing there is, as it appears there is, will to tackle the problems within a few months. — Charles Stewart (talk) 19:09, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep a valid topic, clearly significant coverage in Ukrainian language sources (cf. also BBC Ukrainian Service: [33]). The article of course is too short but in so far as I understand these matters, it was initially longer, but unsourced. (Like the case is in the Ukrainian Wikipedia). I think we should give users time to develop it. Polska jest Najważniejsza (talk) 14:19, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Google Scholar does contain several sources about this tragedy. I added a publication in the Eminak journal, which mentions that 73 Ukrainians were killed. The Uryadovy Kuryer source does seem reliable to me. It's an official journal published by the government. Moreover, it does mention that the information about the village being looted and 73 civilians killed was collected from the national archive. Dr.KBAHT (talk) 18:16, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article created a day after Fox (African TV channel) left the airwaves as a spin-off to keep an unsourced list of programs that aired on the network according to the creator because it 'needs expansion' and 'We need to already know the shows that are on Fox for years'. Outside some acquired shows, it basically aired shows from the United States's Fox broadcast network and FX, so a list-of isn't needed, especially one unsourced (the only sourced presented was the network's website, which I removed per WP:PRIMARY/WP:RECENT and it probably being pulled offline soon). Removed several times from the Fox article due to not being sourced at all, so creator spun it off into this list of to keep it. PROD on unsourced grounds denied by creator.
