Article about a television show, not properly sourced as passing WP:TVSHOW. As always, television shows don't get an automatic free notability pass just because they exist or existed -- the notability test is the reception of reliable source coverage about them in media other than their own self-published content about themselves, but this article is completely unreferenced, and all the way back to its initial creation in 2008 it has never had even one WP:GNG-worthy citation in it at all.
As I don't have access to any databases in which I could retrieve European media coverage from the 1990s or 2000s, I'm perfectly willing to withdraw this if somebody with better access to that type of resource can find enough reliable source coverage to salvage the article -- but nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt it from having to cite any proper third-party sourcing.

No real evidence of notability as a standalone company. All the reliable sources in the article barely mention the company, but are focused on some employees. Possible conflict-of-interest editing has been noted since 2015. QueenofBithynia (talk) 21:23, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I am unable to locate any deep or significant coverage with in-depth information on the company and containing independent content, references to date fail the criteria for establishing notability, topic therefore fails WP:NCORP. The references posted by Chumpih above do not meet WP:SIRS as claimed. SIRS references WP:ORGIND which requires "Independent Content" that is original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. This is usually the criteria where most references fail. References cannot rely only on information provided by the company, quotations, press releases, announcements, interviews fail ORGIND. This Reuters reference is entirely based on a company announcement with no "Independent Content" except perhaps for the last sentence which, on its own, doesn't make up for the CORPDEPTH requirement. Ditto for the first WSJ reference and the second WSJ reference relies entirely on information from the company with quotes and also falls short of ORGIND/CORPDEPTH. HighKing++ 14:48, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    This analysis of the sources is questionable. The statement "relies entirely on information from the company" is wrong. Chumpih t 17:37, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It would be helpful if, for example, you pointed to some in-depth (WP:CORPDEPTH) information in the article that doesn't rely entirely on information provided by the company or their execs? Otherwise your comment has no weight. HighKing++ 15:27, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The article in question is mostly based on info from Roche (not the company in question) and is prior to acquisition so from a business disclosure aspect this is likely to be factual, and without vested interest. Chumpih t 16:14, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nonsense. If a company announces its intentions to purchase another company, they definitely have a "vested interest". Even if what you claim has some validity (which it doesn't), Roche already had a vested interest at least six months previously (which is referred to in the Reuters article you linked to). HighKing++ 13:27, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nope, to state 'nonsense' is plain incorrect. There are rules about disclosures before purchase, e.g. the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and TransparencyRules sourcebook. WSJ is fairly scrupulous about its sources, hence WSJ is WP:RS. Therefore bias in the WSJ article is unlikely - the honesty around M+A disclosures is underpinned by law. Chumpih t 18:08, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but it is nonsense to say that Roche had no vested interest. And we're not discussing "bias in the WSJ article" or whether the WSJ is RS or not - ignoratio elenchi. We're looking specifically at our own guidelines, in particular WP:ORGIND which requires "Independent Content" from sources that are *not* affiliated with the topic company. Look - here's a recap of how we got to this point. I provided an analysis and said the references fail NCORP. You said the analysis was questionable. I asked for you to point to a specific part of the article which doesn't rely on info from affiliated sources - you ignored the request, instead claiming that Roche is acceptable as a source as it provided factual information and without vested interests. I refuted that claim by pointing out that Roche had a vested interest and is therefore not unaffiliated. And now you're arguing that the WSJ is a RS. It doesn't matter if the info provided by Roche is factual or not, that isn't the point. Our guidelines explicitly state that we require *multiple* references where a third party writes in-depthly about the topic company. The references must pass WP:SIRS and in particular, from my experience, both WP:ORGIND and WP:CORPDEPTH are the sections which most references fail to meet our criteria. This is no exception. HighKing++ 20:07, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Roche's statement is prior to acquisition, therefore it's not vested - it would be vested after acquisition (unless we're applying a hedonic definition of vested). The guidelines have been considered. The arguments here pertain to SIRS for this WSJ reference. It's arguably independent - no vested interest, and possibly subject to FCA guidelines. It's arguably from a reliable source - WSJ are robust in their fact checking . It's substantial, with descriptions about the company in question. Chumpih t 21:19, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, that is all still utter nonsense, I cannot believe you're trying to argue that Roche were "unaffiliated" with the topic company at the time they were announcing the pending takeover. Also, not sure why you want to pick over a definition of "vested interest", strikes me as wiki-lawyering especially as WP:ORGIND has no mention of "vested interest". Even so, your strictly legal/financial limitations on the term flies in the face of everyday use and understanding - for example your definition rules out usaeg such as "banks have a vested interest in the growth of their customers" or "the riverside cafe has a vested interest in the success of local tourist attractions". All of which discussion and your objections fall away once it is pointed out to you that in the very Reuters reference you provided above, a "vested interest" is confirmed where the topic company's CEO says "Andersson said Santaris is not in immediate need of funding as it recently struck a deal with Swiss pharma giant Roche, which secured funding for its research beyond the end of 2014." HighKing++ 11:06, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, that would be the WP:ORGIND that starts with the words: A primary test of notability is whether unrelated people with no vested interest in the subject have actually considered the company, corporation.... Further discourse here is likely to be pointless. Chumpih t 12:08, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies, I am wrong (some wouldn't have been able to resist the urge to say I was talking nonsense :-) and you are correct, ORGIND is as you say. Still doesn't obviate the overall point though, that your "definition" of "vested interest" is too narrow and appears to require a financial stake and ignores Roche's prior investment. But yeah, I think we're done. HighKing++ 13:13, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, WP:BASIC/WP:GNG notability appears supported by sources in the article, e.g. per Yemeni American News (in the article) (translated with Google Translate) in an article about him titled "Abdul-Jabbar Nouman and Symphony of Color", he was "born in 1949. He studied art. He graduated from Leonardo College in Cairo in 1973." Per the Almawqea Post (described as a private news website by the Committee to Protect Journalists) in a 2019 obituary, (also translated), "The late is considered one of the most prominent plastic artists in his country [...] Abdel-Jabbar Ahmed Abdel-Wahhab Noman was born in the Dhahban area near the city of Taiz, where he began his studies and then completed it in Aden, and traveled to Cairo, where he joined the Italian Art Institute and obtained a bachelor’s degree from it with distinction with honors in 1973..." and more information about his career, including "among his most prominent works is a mural inaugurated by the United Nations on war and peace". Another obit (Al-Arabi?) refers to him (translated) as "not just an amateur artist, but was one of the most important founders of the Yemeni plastic art movement". Also, the birth year does not quite match, but the work of Abdel Jabar Numan of Yemen, b. 1946, is held in the permanent collection of the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts.

I am putting this up as this is very detailed article though it seems to be almost all Primary Sources or worse unsourced. Believe it fails WP:GNG as a result. Slywriter (talk) 19:47, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Fictional elements-related deletion discussions. CAPTAIN RAJU(T) 19:54, 29 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep The article right now has insufficient sources to show it passes WP:GNG, but per WP:NEXIST that doesn't mean it's not notable. There is an article at CBR explaining the Zaku and calling them "beloved and iconic". They built a huge Zaku and Gundam statue in Japan. [1] They sent a model of Char Aznable's Zaku into space. [2] And there are tons of other mentions if the mecha is Googled. It's "weak" keep because I haven't been able to find solid examples of WP:SIGCOV but the sheer amount of mentions in reliable sources makes me think that it should probably stay an article. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 01:55, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep My findings mirror Zxcvbnm's, but I assess that on the whole the findings demonstrate notability in the aggregate, even if individual criteria aren't clearly met: This isn't a fly-by-night thing, but a reasonably major element in a reasonably established fictional franchise. Jclemens (talk) 02:21, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep per above, with a note that some more SIGCOV may exist in Japanese, but we don't seem to have any editors these days familiar with Japanese language and active here, sigh. Also the article seems to suffer from excessive plot summary/fancruftis, and lack of references, but that's theoretically fixable without the need to apply WP:TNT. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:35, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment This might count as sigcov? I don't know, I think it's good enough but people seem to have wildly different standards for what counts as sigcov, so draw your own conclusions. I didn't bother looking past the first few results on Google News because I don't care about Gundam and only took a look because Piotrus lamented the lack of editors familiar with Japanese, so there might be more.

Completely unsourced list of almost entirely non-notable mayors of a small (pop. 3.5K) town. Pasadena isn't large enough that its mayors would be presumed notable just for being mayors per se -- so only one person in this entire list actually has a Wikipedia article, and even he has it for going on to serve in the provincial legislature rather than for being mayor of this town per se.

Recreation of a previously deleted article. This is written differently enough from the first version to not qualify for immediate speedy deletion, but it is not actually bolstering his notability claim with appreciably better reliable sourcing than it had the first time.
This is still referenced far too heavily to primary sources that are not support for notability -- the alumni organizations of his own alma maters, content on the self-published websites of organizations or companies that he's directly affiliated with, Q&A interviews where he's talking about himself in the first person, etc. -- and the very, very few footnotes that actually come from real WP:GNG-worthy media outlets are just glancing namechecks of his existence, not coverage that's substantively about him for the purposes of establishing notability.
As always, Wikipedia is not a place where people are automatically notable just because they have jobs -- notability is not a question of what the article says so much as it's a question of the quality of the referencing you can or can't locate to support the things the article says, and the referencing here isn't good enough. (For added bonus, the creator was explicitly told the first time what kind of sourcing is acceptable and what kind of sourcing isn't, but still came back with this anyway.)

The article on this academic and psychotherapist currently has three references. One is a book review with no information about the subject of the article apart from verifying his profession. The second is an interview. The third is a publisher's page about one of his books. This isn't significant coverage in reliable sources so I'm doubtful about his notability. Page has been tagged as needing more citations since 2010; WP:BEFORE has not found me anything to add. One of his books won the Goethe Award for Psychoanalytic and Psychodynamic Scholarship, so it's possible that book is notable. Holmes himself, per the publisher's page, has won the Bowlby-Ainsworth Award, but that does not have a wiki article. Tacyarg (talk) 20:50, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Don't see how he is notable enough as an ancient historian/archaeologist. Seems to have published only a handful of journal articles, and I'm not sure if the books are enough to justify the retention of this article. 2/3rds of the article text is just his time at university and teaching in Africa and the source of his death isn't even an obituary about him but an article on his wife.

Compared to 2022 when books are easily printed, you had to be important in 1887 to make it into a book, so to me that counts for a lot. Also he is close to being WP:AUTHOR as by translating Aristotle's (no less!) work into English, he really did play a major role as defined in criteria 3. Absent for a clear pass at 3 is someone doing a book review of his work, but mentioned that he translated it are vast. So to me that's a 90% pass on two notability criteria, plus the argument above for WP:PROF is persuasive. All these imperfect factors to me are enough for me to be comfortable to !vote keep.

Short-lived reality show that died after only eight episodes. Zero sourcing found anywhere that did not originate from CMT, the network it aired on. Prod declined. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:12, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Well of those sources, Pro Wrestling, https://www.pwinsider.com/ViewArticle.php?id=34525&p=1], [6], [7] seem like fan sites that don't look like reliable sources to me. [8] is a short article that explains the show, [9] and [10], [11] are very short pieces that just list contestants (and WP:NOTINHERITED applies, it's not a notable event just because notable people take part), [12] is mostly about Hulk Hogan rather than the show itself, [13], [14] are copies of Hollywood Reporter articles (so cannot be considered a separate significant coverage from HR), [15] is an interview, which cannot be counted as significant, independent coverage. I cannot access Baltimore Sun, so no comment on that article. I don't see enough significant, independent coverage about the programme in reliable sources to pass WP:GNG.

  • Keep per LM2000. Quite a few reliable sources. The objections to several of the sources seem mistaken or disingenuous. For example, the Tampa Bay Times article explaining the show is exactly what is needed to establish notability. Slam Wrestling is accepted as a reliable source, and it definitely does not just mention the show in passing--the entire article is about the show--a contestant's reasons for appearing, training to appear, etc. The Baltimore Sun article, while the inability for people in some locations to access it is definitely valid, is also a detailed discussion of the show. As for The Oklahoman, the fact that a reliable source interviews the person behind the show, asking specifically about the show, definitely asserts some notability. WP:RS and WP:GNG are both easily met for this one. GaryColemanFan (talk) 07:05, 30 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The "pluralist school" never actually existed - the oxford handbook to presocratic philosophy notes on page 17 that those distinctions were incorrect. this page should be redirected to the relevant section on Pre-Socratic philosophy - car chasm (talk) 18:18, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Philosophy-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 18:20, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. That it is argued that the Pluralist School never actually existed is just something to include in the article; it is not a rationale for removing the article. The fundamental issue is that it has prominently been said to exist, and this is the rationale for the article's existence.Teishin (talk) 21:33, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Unless I misunderstand the argument, the contention is that because the philosophers making up a school of thought that is today labeled the "pluralist school" didn't recognize the grouping or the label, it didn't exist, and therefore is a modern hoax. This is not a logical argument—by this rationale, there were no pre-Socratics, either. It is irrelevant whether a group is aware of the similarities that cause scholars to group them, or whether they would agree with it. Likewise, it doesn't matter if some scholars disagree with the grouping, as long as credible, verifiable sources contend that it's valid—and they don't have to represent a permanent or ongoing opinion, either. If 19th century scholars considered it a valid classification, but 21st century scholars have abandoned that view, it would still be the valid subject of an article, for the very practical reason that readers might encounter the concept and want to understand what it is. P Aculeius (talk) 11:59, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@P Aculeius: There's no reason that we need a whole article on that, though, right? If the page is redirected to a section of Pre-Socratic philosophy that explains which philosophers have been considered "pluralists" in various 19th century scholarship, and it's very much not a consistent or coherent group of philosophers (other than usually Empedocles), should it really merit its own whole article? - car chasm (talk) 01:49, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That would be an argument for merging the articles, not for deleting this one—and the rationale would also be different from the one given for the proposed deletion. If, as the sources seem to indicate, there was such a school of thought, or at least some modern scholarship holds that there was, and this topic can be thoroughly covered in a related article where it seems to be a natural fit, then of course merging it into that article is an option. But that means making sure that all of the significant information—including the sources, unless they can be replaced by better ones—is added to the other article. Then this one can be turned into a redirect to that section. Note that other editors may disagree with the merger based on how well the subject fits, and this article could still be recreated in the future if it can be expanded beyond the prudent limits of that section. I also note that you don't need permission before attempting to merge articles. Perhaps you could go ahead and do that, then if nobody objects here after a reasonable time, change this article into a redirect to that section. P Aculeius (talk) 02:39, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's a good point, perhaps I need a self-WP:TROUT here. The section on pre-Socratic philosophy appears to be much longer, so I'm going to redirect to that for now and make a discussion on the talk page if anyone disagrees with the redirect. - car chasm (talk) 04:34, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The right thing would have been to let the discussion run its course but at least somebody else has picked up on this. This is an indiscriminate collection of stats and the sourcing is loosely based on player profiles rather than actual rankings. Ajf773 (talk) 00:33, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment While the UK number 1 is covered fairly regularly by the British press [18][19][20][21], the articles don't tend to be focused on the chronology of the ranking but on whichever player happens to hold the No. 1 spot at the time. How that meshes with WP:NLIST I'm not sure. Letcord (talk) 02:13, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom and Ajf773. I was the original nominator. I apologise for the premature speedy keep, I did not think my original reasoning would have been applicable had I improved the article to include more than a short list of men's singles players, and perhaps include double and women players (rather than because one other person voted keep). However after spending some time making a list of singles and doubles British number 1 players I don't think the article can pass WP:NOTSTATS, it involves scraping data from old rankings (which are not always accurate) and obscure, outdated fan websites.

Nominating on behalf of IP editor. Rationale below.

This article is a blatant failure of WP:NASTRO as well as WP:GNG. Twice I attempted to redirect this to the appropriate section at James Webb Space Telescope, but both times was reverted without explanation. An extremely similar situation has already taken place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2MASS J17554042+6551277, in which the result of the discussion was a consensus to redirect similarly. So, here we are. The WP:NASTRO failure is pretty clear -- a WP:BEFORE search of the scientific literature pulled up one or two brief mentions of this, in massive lists with no other relevant discussion. And WP:GNG is similarly skimpy. While there are lots of mentions of this due to its role as a calibration target for JWST, there's no significant, in-depth discussion of the star itself. Any information about the star's role as a calibration target should be (and already is) at the JWST article. Notability is not inherited, and thus I suggest a deletion followed by a creation of the redirect I attempted in the first place. Qwaiiplayer (talk) 15:35, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article has a complex history as a school project (see User_talk:Dino_Marc#Welcome! and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gender Analysis of 'What He Is' and AfD seems a little heavy handed, but the creator believes it's a fit for mainspace, so we're here.

If the instructor doesn't understand how Wikipedia works, they are unlikely to understand the difference between mainspace or draftspace. Draftspace will seem to make everybody happy. Rlink2 (talk) 18:45, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't see how draftspace would help anyone here. The entire article is OR on a non-notable subject. Why would be encourage more work on it? --Kbabej (talk) 18:48, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry i meant to say userspace. Rlink2 (talk) 18:50, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for the clarification, but what purpose would it serve WP in saving it? Not trying to badger; just understand why WP should save this content. --Kbabej (talk) 18:52, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It doesn't serve a purpose on Wikipedia, in my opinion. But outright deleting it could cause drama between these instructions that apperently, from what I have been hearing, have a hard time understanding wikipedia. If its in userspace it does no harm to anyone while reducing drama. Rlink2 (talk) 18:57, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I think it will encourage the student and instructor to keep working away at the article. I don't think it best practice to simply move it to avoid drama. If it's unsuitable for WP, it's unsuitable. --Kbabej (talk) 19:00, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Rlink2 Draft space is not intended for this category of use. Please refer to WP:DRAFTIFY. It is not a holding zone for items which will never make it to be articles.

    @Rlink2 I appreciate your comment. I'm not entirely sure it works in user space, though. See WP:NOTWEBHOST
    This entire thing is unfair on 100% of the class, and appears to have been created by an unwise or uninformed instructor.

    Wikipedia is not a beaucrarcy or a government where laws have to be followed no matter what. If they are working on the article in userspace, and they aren't disrupting any other part of the article, I'd say thats fine.

    The trouble with your (very kind, very human, I appreciate and respect it) argument is that it creates an inventive system whereby the main lesson all the students and academics take from this is that they can do this and we presented them with a workaround mechanism to use wikipedia for not wikipedia purposes. There are negative consequences to this. I think if anyone wants to change the rules of wikipedia there is a process for that, but this process is to apply them. I'm not a fan of causing problems for others, but the cause of the problem is not the implementation of the rules, it's the teacher's bad choices. I think we must delete to signal and incentivize less of this. CT55555 (talk) 01:18, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge to Come Let Us Sing Anyway. The plot summary of the story can be used there. I agree that there's little point in moving things to draftspace when there's no chance the topic could be notable, but it actually doesn't look like anyone has engaged meaningfully with the story's notability. Many individual short stories are notable, like Ivy Day in the Committee Room. Just because this version of the article is OR does not mean that no valid article can be written on the topic. I am not saying the story is notable-- I haven't looked-- but the fact that it has clearly been assigned in this class gets it halfway to a pass of WP:NBOOK#4, so I don't see why it is being dismissed out of hand.

Ignoring the racing greats there, which may be justified by article split, many of those lower calibre ones were created in late 2021 by one user.

  • Leaning Keep The article is indeed poor, but the subject, a leading dealer in its field for over a century, is probably notable.

    RE the British Museum entry, that refers to the Aaron Gallery, which is not the same entity as David Aaron's newer business on Berkeley Square, the subject of this article. Notability is not inherited.

    Businesses set up new entities all the time. The (probably COI) article & the subject's website take the business back to the original foundation, & one of the Antiques Trade Gazette pieces says the new address was part of the same business; both are on Berkeley Sq. But "The Aaron Gallery" is now on New Bond Street (very close by) after a split some decades ago. I think the article should be rename to "Aaron Gallery" and cover all the permutations.

Not notable, I tried to find reliable sources that cover USACO but none of them are mainly about USACO. 0xDeadbeef (talk) 07:50, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. Is this the only or main feeder competition to select the US team for the International Olympiad in Informatics? If so it is highly notable, that seems to be a major competitive programming contest. References could be found by starting from the IOI page. Also how well regarded is the IOI considered in the landscape of programming contests? Caleb Stanford (talk) 17:26, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In my understanding it is. But I do not think it would be notable that way because of WP:INHERITORG? For example the Asia-Pacific Informatics Olympiad might be notable under your criteria, but has even less media coverage than USACO. Per WP:ORGDEPTH these two would be both not notable. 0xDeadbeef (talk) 07:07, 23 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Then I think my vote is keep per WP:COMMONSENSE. I agree with WP:INHERITORG and WP:ORGDEPTH but an organization in the united states that feeds into IOI would certainly be a huge deal in my estimation, barring a contrary opinion from someone with direct expertise/experience in computing olympiads. In my opinion, the fact that we have not found the sources yet doesn't mean they don't exist (I didn't have a chance to look yet). Likewise, we would not be justified delete the page Apple even if two, or even a dozen readers could not find independent reliable sources discussing Apples.

Comment. After a search, the NOI in China (National Olympiad in Informatics, China) was deleted because of a similar reason. (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&logid=91939855)
If we keep USACO because it is the main feeder competition to select for the IOI team in the US, then the NOI article should be resurrected as well, per consensus.
I'm not sure if the fact of it being in the US alone makes it more notable than a competition in another country. 0xDeadbeef (talk) 01:54, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If United States of America Computing Olympiad is primarily of interest due to its relationship with the International Olympiad in Informatics but does not meet notability for a stand-alone article, we might consider a merge or redirect to the latter article. ~Kvng (talk) 17:21, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Biography of a county councillor, not properly sourced as passing WP:NPOL #2. As always, county council is not a level of office that confers an automatic inclusion freebie in Wikipedia -- the notability test for county councillors hinges not on verifying that they existed, but on showing substantial media coverage about their work to establish the significance of it: specific things they accomplished in the role, specific effects they had on the development of the county, specific impacts they had on wider political affairs beyond their county, or other stuff which establishes a reason to regard them as significantly more notable than most other county councillors.
But this is referenced entirely to the county council's own self-published website about itself, a primary source which is not support for notability, with not even one reliable or notability-supporting piece of media coverage shown at all.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to have a lot more substance and sourcing than this. Bearcat (talk) 13:58, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose/Keep The article clearly needs improvement but I think she meets the criteria for notability based on the above articles that focus primarily on her plus the many more articles available that reference her positions on issues facing the county council from 2002-2014. St. Louis County has a population greater than several states and at least the St. Louis Post Dispatch and St. Louis Public Radio (formerly the Beacon) that cover local politics in detail so I would suspect that any County Councilor who serves long enough would meet the criteria for notability. I disagree that there is a notability requirement for County Councilors that they must be more notable than other county councilors. I think they just have to meet the normal notability standards such as significant coverage, which I tried to show above that she does. Skier23 (talk) 16:12, 28 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch also wrote an article about her in 2012: Missouri withdraws contract to Burkett to run Maplewood License Office, and STLPR has more in 2012 about her and her career: County ordinance on women's shelter passes but with heated debate. Per WP:NPOL, she is a major local political [figure] who [has] received significant press coverage because per fn 8, she has been written about, in depth, independently in multiple news feature articles, by journalists, and the article can be expanded with information from these sources. Beccaynr (talk) 03:36, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I see a bit of coverage post mortem; I fail to see significant coverage. We do have a couple obituaries but I have yet to stumble upon a case where a member of the council, any member, passes away and does not get an obit. And that 2012 news item is about the travails of an ordnance proposal through the council; not about our subject per se. I sincerely do not see "significance." We might be setting the bar too low for notability. -The Gnome (talk) 06:38, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The STLPR obit links to a variety of other coverage related to her career on the council, and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch obit includes biographical information, e.g. her family, children, religion, and career before becoming a council member. These are not the only obit articles available for her, but these two appear substantial enough to help support notability. What other council members receive should be assessed on an individual basis, because announcement and funeral notices are different from in-depth reviews of a subject's life and career.
Also, the 2012 St. Louis Post-Dispatch article is about her, and there appears to be more related coverage available. And the 2012 article about the "heated debate" is substantially about the "heat" Burkett brought to the council meeting by discussing her experience as a survivor of domestic violence. WP:NPOL/WP:BASIC notability appears supported because these articles focus on her and include enough information so that we can actually write a whole article.

  • Delete Fail to see how he passed WP:NTRACK. I don't see him taking part in any of the international events that are listed on NTRACK, having went through them one by one. The attempt at WP:HEY has added more of the same type of references, but not one of them confirm NTRACK. I see he has competed at the Under-23 championships at CAMPEONATO NORTE, CENTROAMERICA Y DEL CARIBE in 2008, but don't see it on the list, nor the IAAF on the pdfs for ranking.

Minimally sourced stub, of the "Subject was a person who had a job, the end" variety, of a former chairman of the board of a media company. While this would be enough to get him an article if some actual substance about his work could be referenced to enough reliable source coverage about it to get him over WP:GNG for it, it isn't "inherently" notable enough to require keeping a 19-word stub that's referenced exclusively to a list of past presidents on the company's own self-published website about itself.

  • Redirect to Differential Equations#Examples The material reads like a how-to guide, and all its encyclopedic content is duplicated by the articles we have on the individual types of differential equation and the methods for solving them. I do think that the title would make a decent, straightforward redirect to an existing section of the main article on differential equations.
As a side-note, the page was "moved" here from the subpage Differential equations/Examples on 7 September 2002 (!), even though it doesn't show up in the move logs.
  • Comment. I have no clear idea ot what to do with this article. As it is, it is certainly not encyclopedic. However, with little work, it could be a basis for an article called List of analytic methods for differential equations. This could be useful for users not interested in the theory, but who have equations to solve. So, I hesitate between the above suggested redirect and a move. D.Lazard (talk) 11:13, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Differential Equations#Examples per above. This topic is already covered in that section and doesn't warrant a stand alone article. Qwaiiplayer (talk) 12:43, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect. Agree with the nottextbook criticism. In response to D.Lazard (talk · contribs), I think it would take immense work to make such a change, since the content is (at present) almost completely restricted to what's usually a single chapter in a first undergraduate textbook on the topic. Gumshoe2 (talk) 16:44, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or rename: There are many types of differential equations and I can see an article discussing them, separate from the main differential equations article itself.

Promotional article about a website created April 4, 2022. Internet Archive first archived The Daily Earth on April 4, and a WHOIS lookup on the URL confirms it was registered April 4. The "Daily News Today" source is another website created by Anisur Rahman Niloy, and the article is published April 4th. The Daily Star source has no mention of "The Daily Earth", and is dated before the false 2015 founding date of "The Daily Earth". Politanvm talk 03:49, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete WHOIS information and copies at the Internet Archive can not necessarily be used to prove the age of an organization of a website. The Internet Archive can fail to capture content for sites until long after the domain has been registered.
A WHOIS search is significantly more foolproof and better evidence, but even then it is enitrely possible the website could have been operating under a different domain and just moved to this one on april 4th. This has happened to multiple websites. After doing some research, it seems like this is the case: there is another domain that was registered in Feb 2022 and it looks like it the same website as "The Daily Earth" (same articles, same layout, very similar name). On both sites, the earliest articles seem to be from Feb 2022, so it seems to me the website was actually created on Feb 2022 and not April 2022.
I'm voting delete because there is basically nothing covering this website - and by nothing it means nothing, let alone RSes. Thus, this doesn't meet WP:GNG Rlink2 (talk) 17:30, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Based on my further search on Google, the article does not have additional sources. The refs provided are questionable, with the second and fourth from the unreliable IMDB, and the first from BTVA, in which the Perennial Sources (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Perennial_sources#Behind_the_Voice_Actors) list stated that "There is consensus that Behind the Voice Actors is generally reliable for roles credits. Editors agree that its coverage is not significant and does not contribute to notability." The third ref could possibly be reliable (although I am unsure), nevertheless, it is mostly the info that Marin himself provided (and should likely be attributed), and does not constitute the coverage from multiple sources.

  • Weak Delete Personally I'm a fan of him he is a good voice actor of my childhood show like 2 in Am Pm, Regular show and many more. But surprisingly can't find any significant references of him. So it's a delete per norm. @@@XyX talk 04:28, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete lack of secondary sourcing. Generic name and a couple of roles outside Regular Show make it an unlikely redirect candidate. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 06:06, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Company that fails WP:NCORP. Given reference is to a local newspaper. Not publicly traded. Products aren't notable and wouldn't support notability of the company anyway. Mikeblas (talk) 04:47, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Despite being a national chain, couldn't find any significant coverage for the company itself to satisfy WP:NCORP. The sources I was able to find are either brief announcements about a new store opening or stories about sauces that they sell. Couldn't find anything in depth about the company itself.
