Subject does not pass WP:GNG or WP:SNG. Sources are all notices of his death. Only assertions of notability are surviving a terrorist attack, serving on religious committees, had a handful of famous students. Dr vulpes (💬📝) 23:08, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy Keep he was imam for decades of the most prominent mosque in the world [1] and a key theological authority e.g. [2]--Jahaza (talk) 04:47, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    His name comes up once in this book so I don't know if it would really pass WP:SIGCOV, as for the newspaper article it doesn't really tell us anything about him other then he died so I don't think it's really helping the article here. But there might be some non-english sources that I can't access which could be helpful. If we can find them over the next week or so and clean this article up I'll withdraw this AfD nomination as a Speedy Keep. Dr vulpes (💬📝) 06:24, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Dr vulpes, This source does give us some details about him. He spent his life in the service of Islam, the king and the country as a former preacher and imam of the Grand Mosque in Makkah, President General of the Affairs of the Grand Mosque and the Prophet's Mosque, member of the Council of Senior Religious Scholars and as a member of the Islamic jurisprudence complex as well as many other achievements. That's why I say, his imam-ship at the Masjid al-Haraam makes him notable in his subjective field. He has been quoted in this book, The Future of Islam by John Esposito. There should be something more. ─ The Aafī (talk) 13:58, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I have also been able to locate a lengthy article about him in Daily Jang, a well known Pakistani newspaper. This and all the other coverage put together inclines towards passing GNG. ─ The Aafī (talk) 14:02, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    His religious edicts have also been quoted at other places, for example, this from 263rd issue of an Urdu journal called Muhaddith, published from Lahore, Pakistan. ─ The Aafī (talk) 14:06, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as Jahaza noted above. His imam-ship at the Masjid al-Haraam makes him notable and widely recognized in his subjective fields. ─ The Aafī (talk) 06:16, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Ok so we have a fatawa calling Ghulam Ahmed Parvez an atheist, a notice that he died, and a single line in a book saying it's wrong to kill people from Israel. Am I reading this correctly? Am I missing something here? Are there any interviews with him? Articles about his readings of the Quran? Articles about his work in the community? The article on his passing is pretty good but we need more to establish WP:GNG Dr vulpes (💬📝) 08:21, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The article from Arab News gives us pretty much details, which I'd deem as significant, and the Urdu article from Daily Jang is definitely significant; and both of these are independent and reliable in my opinion. I'm not saying this is enough but if we include all the other little coverage with this - it definitely inclines towards GNG. I was able to find a detailed biography of him that discusses his works in detail but I'm not sure who is the author, it could be someone from his family too. I do not know Arabic very much. Nonetheless, his imam-ship at the Masjid al-Haraam is a borderline notability case for me, and I'm still in favour of keep. I'm not on my system and not in a position to dig more but I'd surely give more tries to this after Wednesday. ─ The Aafī on Mobile (talk) 05:58, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as Jahaza describe above. He was notable imam. Deloar Akram (TalkContribute) 13:34, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Clearly significant figure in Anguillan football and probably one of few Anguillan players ever to play outside England. I look at the other Sports WikiProjects (or any WikiProject) and they don't nearly have an article deleted per day, let alone 30. By the time I finish writing this, another 30 will probably be deleted. Article may need improvement, but definitely not deletion. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 15:14, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - agree with nom's analysis of sources. I also did specifically check [4] just in case, but got no results. As for Das's keep, I don't see any evidence that Varian is a clearly significant figure in Anguillan football in the sources (and yeah, there's structural issues with AfD but that's not what I'm here to discuss). —Danre98(talk^contribs) 22:32, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable singer/actor; draftification is impossible due to a previous attempt of this nature being draftified under the same name. Google search only pulls up the same ToI tabloidy junk under a role byline as is already in the article and no actual significant coverage (string: "sikander ghuman"). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 22:27, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: I encountered this article a bit ago at the new pages feed and agree. The picture in the article is apparently "original work" of the person who created the article, so it's probably paid and/or conflict of interest. The multiple issues tag has been changing around for a bit, but the fact that it's there is a problem when the article is so new. Asparagusus (interaction) 04:58, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Many Wikipedians (including me) find and artist Sikander Ghuman as a reliable source while creating Indian-related articles. Deleting a artist page will close the door to other content as well and this will definitely hurt the expansion of Wikipedia. There must be a tool to find out how often Sikander Ghuman has been cited on Wikipedia and this should be seen as a consensus of the community over a news source. Yes, I know, but it give you little idea of its popularity. Its notability is not completely based on social media. Sikander Ghuman is among top actor in Indian film industry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alibaba00450 (talkcontribs) 17:21 September 3, 2022 (UTC) Alibaba00450 (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
    This argument is laughable at best and outright bullshit at worst. The times where we would consider a singer a reliable source are infinitesimally small, and if Ghuman is indeed being cited as extensively as you claim, then those cites need to be straight-up removed. On that note, what is your connexion to IamNasirZaman (talk · contribs)? —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 17:33, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strongly Keep We have already discussed and other things like Sikander Ghuman was among less than one dozen sites that are freely available in India on internet.org, in the previous nomination. This is just not spammy. It's a short bio which is encylopedic, and then a short career history. He may well not be notable, but there's credible indication as artist. This is a very famous and popular artist of Punjabi language. And this actor is very much liked all over the world Millions of people have searched this Artist on google That's why it was very important to make Wikipedia of this actor. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alibaba00450 (talkcontribs) 18:55, 3 September 2022 (UTC) [reply]
    This argument is, once again, laughable at best and outright bullshit at worst. I suspect you're copy-pasting arguments from other AfDs and just slapping in "this guy is famous"; that isn't going to work since those arguments are highly unlikely to apply to the circumstances here. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 20:47, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

i'm not gonna pretend like i'm an expert on anything sports related, but I did some digging (papers, books, google, of course) and the race he supposedly placed ins website and I can't find anything to verify that this guy actually exists in any capacity related to being a cyclist or placing in a championship - in fact, I did find some coverage under the Greek spelling but for an author who is very much not this guy. I also believe the 2007 championship article which names him (and was created by the same person who created this article) is being conflated with another notable race, which is US based.

I removed the sole source that's ever been here as it's UGEN and not reliable and *every* result I can find about this person is from a Wikipedia mirror. PICKLEDICAE🥒 22:03, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Keep as multiple SIGCOV and reliable sources provided. I'd ask that you reconsider nominating articles for deletion immediately after they're deprodded by someone who says that sources are available. It's close to assuming bad faith. Was I just fibbing when I said that there's a clip file? No.[5]--Jahaza (talk) 21:49, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    How would I know? You didn't cite the link in your de-prod. But from looking at the file, it seems to be local notability only. There's still no evidence of significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources. BilCat (talk) 22:38, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You would know by assuming good faith that when I said it in the edit summary I wasn't just making it up. There's no need to push so hard and fast for deletion.--Jahaza (talk) 00:34, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Local notability only is not, as far as I can tell, actually a policy based thing. The clip file includes multiple "significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources". That those sources are local or regional newspapers isn't actually a policy-based reason for deletion, especially when there's a general claim of notability for a particular reason (founder of a college).--Jahaza (talk) 00:54, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. We generally keep heads of universities (let alone founders) per WP:NACADEMIC #6. There is no evidence that WP:BEFORE was followed in this instance, although as a common name it is a little difficult to search for.

unsourced article for 12+ years about a "b list" actor, and I can't find any actual sources (newspapers, books, credits or otherwise) to substantiate an article. PICKLEDICAE🥒 21:20, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: The only things that seem to pop up on a quick Google search are YouTube and Facebook (and the like). Not notable enough for an encyclopedia entry.

being the CEO of a company, no matter how notable the company, does not on it's own make an individual notable. There is no actual meaningful coverage of Decker, everything is basically "Decker is the new CEO/set to takeover in October 2022". No objections to a redirect to Home Depot, where it should be mentioned. PICKLEDICAE🥒 19:36, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy keep I'll post a longer explanation later today, but suffice to say that this AfD fails on several ground: 1.) there are multiple reliable sources of coverage that discuss multiple points regarding the subject, including his educational history, prior employment, and heading of Home Depot during its highest-earning quarter (WP:BEFORE); 2.) this article is sourced reliably and can not flunk on BLP grounds (even the less-than-ideal Insider source is used with caution); 3.) nominating editor fails to demonstrate how the additional coverage of Decker doesn't demonstrate notability, even if his CEO position is not sufficient in of itself. Self-disclosure: I am the creating editor ~ Pbritti (talk) 19:57, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Which of those sources aren't a press release or basic business announcement? How does this qualify for SK? I clearly did research and found everything is just press releases and business announcements and nothing in depth. PICKLEDICAE🥒 19:58, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm glad you asked! First off, I have concerns regarding the research you performed before your non-procedural blanking of the article. You were editing other articles up until six minutes before that edit, suggesting less than five minutes of reviewing the content on the page and in the sources; unless you had previously familiarity with who Ted Decker is or had previously researched him, I have a hard time believing you did a significant degree of research before say "literally nothing more can be said about him other htan [sic] his HD position" or in the 11 minutes between when I procedurally reverted the deletion and you created this AfD. A maximum of 17 minutes, including performing the edits themselves, really doesn't say you did any serious research in the matter. Of course, that's not your job (and certainly not your job alone) and why I requested this process (thanks for going to AfD, by the way, makes things easier).
    As for the rationale for SK: A substantial amount of this AfD is premised on WP:SINGLEEVENT (or at least a tangentially related notion that the one-time conferral of an executive position is insufficient for notability). However, with sources initiated by multiple events–Decker's appointment to an executive position in 2020, his announcement as CEO and president in Jan 2022, his role in Home Depot's highest-earning quarter on 16 August, and the announcement of his future chairmanship on 18 August–this barrier is surpassed. Even if we applied some of the more strict standards that result in redirects (e.g. George Holliday (witness) to Rodney King) Decker is the primary subject of multiple sources, thereby overcoming that barrier. Looking at WP:GNG, an article is generally suitable when the subject "has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." We have non-trivial mentions of Decker in several independent sources–Yahoo News, Insider, and two from CNN the best examples here–so that general guideline is passed. There are further details about Decker's life in sources of less independence, hence their inclusion here, but overall we have a properly-sourced article covering a subject that has received multiple instances of coverage and a nominator who seems to have failed WP:BEFORE (but has also only acted in good faith and has a very cool username mod going on, it should be noted). So, speedy keep. ~ Pbritti (talk) 20:50, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I did my research, if you'd like to provide evidence that I didn't, I'll gladly withdraw. All I see here is a diatribe and no substance to your answer. :) Provide some non-PR, non-announcement, non-WP:MILL sources, and it'll solve the entire problem. PICKLEDICAE🥒 20:53, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Again, I have concerns: you responded in less than three minutes; you clearly did not consider everything I said with serious depth–or even noticed my compliment! :( Slow down, please, and consider what I've written in response to you. WP:MILL clearly does not apply when multiple individualized, narrowly-focused articles discuss the a specific person in a position of notability. As the article stands, we have at least four (and, if we're being generous with the college sources, six) independent, non-PR sources. Announcements, it should be noted, are reliable sources–particularly when they have additional information attached. I've given research you hadn't done your research, I gave you reasons why your nomination is flawed (you've only cited an essay with no official weight in your defense). In fact, the only thing you've said is that you don't like the breadth of coverage, despite me explaining detail why and how it passes Wikipedia (actual) standards. Not every criticism is personal diatribe, by the way, remember AGF! ~ Pbritti (talk) 21:05, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(Edit Conflict:) Okay, uninvolved editor here, saw this being halted at DYK. First off, @Pbritti & @PICKLEDICAE, let's calm down here. I recognize that blanking and redirecting is acceptable per policy, but it was still not a nice move given that it was at DYK then. A quick heads-up note to the involved parties would have been easy, PICKLEDICAE. Conversely, it doesn't help to accuse other editors of taking "too little time" to review content: I often have multiple tabs open at once, and the chronological order of my edits does not correspond to the time spent on evaluating the respective articles. So, also not so great, Pbritti.

Anyway, let's forget about this and instead turn to an analysis of the actual sources and notability, since this is what we are supposed to do at AfD:

Okay actually will be doing that tomorrow, since the article seems to be heavily edited atm. --LordPeterII (talk) 21:53, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep significant profile here[6] which is not yet incorporated into the article. There's too much to be said about Decker to incorporate it all into the article about Home Depot. Yes, just being CEO of a notable company doesn't make you notable, but being CEO of one of the largest companies in the country generally does and Home Depot is 35 on the Fortune 500[7] and the largest in its category.--Jahaza (talk) 21:34, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks, Jahaza. If you haven't already beat me to it, I'll add that material ASAP. Thoroughly embarrassed that slipped through my dragnet. ~ Pbritti (talk) 21:37, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Pbritti: I would highly recommend checking out the Wikipedia Library if you haven't already. I have found some more coverage of Decker on ProQuest and Gale under his given name Edward, although you should be weary of press release wires as those are primary. DigitalIceAge (talk) 21:41, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @DigitalIceAge: Here's where I admit something: I tried getting the Library to work for me but only made good use of it once before becoming confused and resorting to my old undergrad permissions that are expiring soon. I might ask you specific questions about it in a couple days once this has been resolved, as I will lose my old accesses very soon. Also, yes, those PR releases disguised as new sites are nasty things and I have an unfortunate familiarity with those outside Wikipedia (hence my limited use of the one here). If you say they're considered primary, I'll probably delete it and its material out of an abundance of caution. ~ Pbritti (talk) 21:45, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Pbritti: Fortunately ProQuest has the ability to exclude Wire Feeds from search results using the settings at the sidebar. I can't say the same for Gale.com (or maybe I'm just not looking hard enough). DigitalIceAge (talk) 02:52, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep The references in the article are perfectly adequate to establish notability and all of the content is verifiable. Decker is the current president and CEO of a company with over $150 billion in annual sales and nearly 500,000 employees. He will be the chairman of the board in a month. This is an encyclopedia with 6.5 million articles including biographies of countless young rappers and actors and athletes at the beginnings of their careers. Certainly, it ought to have room for a biography of a very senior corporate executive. Cullen328 (talk) 02:30, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment @Cullen328, Hawkeye7, DigitalIceAge, and Jahaza: I haven't been around at AfD for very long, but I must admit I am very confused by (parts of) your reasonings here. Voting 'Keep' might be appropriate, but imo we need to be very careful how we argue. I'll go through some percieved errors:
a) The article has been nominated now, which means we should evaluate its notability at this point ("However, once an article's notability has been challenged, merely asserting that unspecified sources exist is seldom persuasive, especially if time passes and actual proof does not surface"). True, it is likely that coverage will increase in the future; but we don't have a crystal ball, we don't know that for sure. If we allow hypothetical, future sources to be considered as contributing to establishing notability, we would have tens of thousands of articles who should be kept, for now, because who knows, maybe the future will bring more sources? Again, in this case it is much more likely than in many others, but we must not allow this fallacy to be thought a valid reason.
b) Notability has to established for every article subject, individually. Yes, Home Depot is a large company and yes, it is likely that their CEO would be notable. But arguing that he is notable purely due to the size of the company, is another dangerous fallacy. Again, this opens the door for keeping thousands of bogus articles whose subject is related to someone or something famous, and derives all their notability from the related article.
c) That we have countless biographies of people at the start of their carreer does not imply that we should accept some other article of a person who is at a later stage of their carreer. Notability does depend on the sources available, and these may vary wildly for reasons beyond our influence. WP:Otherstuffexists, albeit only an essay, sums this up pretty well.
Feel free to reply to this and point out any errors on my side (again, I'm still learning). Also, I didn't meant to criticise you or your vote, but merely your reasoning. --LordPeterII (talk) 12:22, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In order to finally cast my own vote, I'll use a nifty template I've recently came across, Template:Source assess table. I'd like to note that sourcing has improved a lot since this was nominated for deletion, so being assessed are the current sources:


Source assessment table: prepared by User:LordPeterII
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/01/27/home-depot-names-ted-decker-ceo-craig-menear-will-remain-board-chair.html Yes Yes No The article is mainly about the company, Home Depot, and mentions both current and new CEOs only briefly No
https://eu.goerie.com/story/business/2020/10/19/fairview-native-ted-decker-named-president-coo-home-depot-erie/5978002002/ Yes Yes Yes This is in-depth and primarily about Decker, his life, education and (also) his new role Yes
https://edition.cnn.com/2022/01/27/business/home-depot-ceo-ted-decker/index.html Yes Yes ~ Is partly about Decker, but very short ~ Partial
https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/home-depot-appoints-ted-decker-161718440.html No Seems to reproduce a company statement, with the majority being a quote by the board director, full of PR talk Yes No Very short, and equally about Decker and previous CEO Menear No
https://www.proquest.com/docview/2448032435 ~ Part article, part reproduction of company announcements (actually states that in the article, you can check per Wikimedia Library) Yes ~ Decker is the first point, but a list of other appointments and company revenues follows ~ Partial
https://www.cmu.edu/tepper/recruiting-and-partnerships/partner-with-the-tepper-school/wl-mellon-speaker-series/ted-decker.html ~ This is explicitly filed under "Recruiters & Partners > Corporate Partnerships", so even though this is from a university, I am sceptical of it being truly independent Yes Yes Actually about him and somewhat in-depth, no doubt ~ Partial
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/08/18/home-depot-ceo-ted-decker-to-replace-retiring-craig-menear-as-chairman.html ~ Mostly a repetition of the press releases already featured in several of the other sources Yes ~ Not just a passing mention, but still mostly saying "this guy has been with the company before, here are some basic facts, he's a good choice" ~ Partial
https://edition.cnn.com/2022/08/16/investing/home-depot-earnings-housing/index.html Yes Mostly original text for once, actual journalism Yes No This is mostly Ted Decker discussing the company. When his name comes up, he is quoted saying something. We learn little to nothing about him, he is just a speaker here No
https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/home-depot-elects-ted-decker-as-chair-of-board-authorizes-15-bln-share-repurchase-1031694257 No This is a repetition of press releases again Yes ~ Again very short, if mostly about Decker. We learn a little about his previous company posts, but not much else No
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/07/15/joe-manchin-raises-1-million-from-bob-kraft-wall-street-energy-companies.html Yes Completely independent (text), has nothing to do with Home Depot or Decker Yes No Decker is mentioned exactly once, at the very end, for donating money to a reelection campaign. No
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using {{source assess table}}.

If you agree with this assessment (and I do), that leaves us with one (1) good source, and four (4) partially-acceptable sources. Ideally, we would have three (3) good sources, which satisfy all three criteria. This is thus not an obvious and easy pass of WP:GNG, but a very difficult and close one. And again, this only after the recent work; previously e.g. the source identified as good was not in the article. --LordPeterII (talk) 13:40, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep is my resulting vote. I am going to count each "partial" source as equivalent of half a good source, which results in a combined three "usable sources". This is exactly the minimum that I and many other editors have for establishing notability. I would not object to a Merge, since this is very borderline; but voting seems to be rather leaning towards Keep. Again, I encourage everyone who cast their votes above to carefully evaluate the sources again, and check if they were actually voting based on these and policy, or on their subjective impressions. Of course I have come to a similar conclusion now, so it might just be that the other Keep votes were only phrased poorly. But I don't believe PICKLEDICAE made a mistake in nominating this, it was a tough and close one. --LordPeterII (talk) 13:47, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Reply to LordPeterII. I did not argue that he is notable purely due to the size of the company. I began my comment with The references in the article are perfectly adequate to establish notability and all of the content is verifiable. In essence, I concluded succinctly what you later concluded in much greater detail. I mentioned Verifiability, which is a core content policy that this article meets. It also meets the other two core content policies because it is neutrally written and contains no original research. Notability is not a policy; it is a very important guideline, but not one that should be mistaken for a policy. Its language says that it is a guideline that editors should attempt to follow, though it is best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply. Yes, we should be guided by common sense not cookie cutter logic. The guideline goes on to say Wikipedia's concept of notability applies this basic standard to avoid indiscriminate inclusion of topics. Article and list topics must be notable, or "worthy of notice". Determining notability does not necessarily depend on things such as fame, importance, or popularity—although those may enhance the acceptability of a subject that meets the guidelines explained below. Yes, "indiscriminate inclusion" is a concern, which is why AfD is clogged up with massive numbers of articles about obscure cricketers and footballers and other such microstubs . But as far as I know, nobody is complaining about an excessive number of biographies of the CEOs of Fortune 500 companies. The language of the guideline says that notability does not depend on importance but it indisputably permits us to consider importance in borderline cases. All experienced editors know that promotional biographies are a serious problem here, which is why I mentioned the young rappers, actors and athletes. We are by some measures the #7 website in the world, and clearly #1 in terms of originally written educational content. Countless people yearn for their own Wikipedia biography. So, we must always be on the alert for promotional content about "up and coming" people and companies, especially in borderline cases. Our special notability guidelines about people and companies accordingly are shaped largely by concerns about promotionslism. We should be far less concerned about biographies of people who are self-evidently at the pinnacle of success, at the helms of gigantic, indisputably notable corporations. You raised concerns about WP:CRYSTAL but that forbids unverifiable speculation, rumors or presumptions and in this case we know with almost complete certainty that he will become chairman of the board on October 1. Therefore, crystal ball concerns are not valid. In the end, this is a test of good editorial judgment. Our goal should always be to improve and expand an excellent encyclopedia. I am convinced that this encyclopedia is better off with this article than without it. Cullen328 (talk) 16:33, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Cullen328: Interesting. I actually wasn't aware of the (technical, but important) distinction between Verifiability and Notability as policy and guideline, respectively. I shall aim to remember that henceforth! I also acknowledge that my allusion to WP:CRYSTAL was not great, as you pointed out. And I wholeheartedly agree on the issue that people yearn for their own Wikipedia biography. I think I was being overly pedantic in this instance, because I wanted to make sure that the apparent ease at which Keep votes were given out was not due to us having lax rules. Yes, I trust you and the other editors I pinged to have checked the article, but I wanted to point out what you would likely have done behind the scenes, lest some phrasing of your replies might be misinterpreted.
I should add that I am lately trying to be as critical towards "veteran" editors as I am towards "new" ones, for fairness' sake. But I have seen you around (the Teahouse especially), Cullen328, and know you are an asset to this community; so please know that the critical analysis above was also me practicing arguing here, even though I knew you were likely not in the wrong :) --LordPeterII (talk) 17:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Wanted to chime in and thank LordPeterII for the review of sources (was not previously aware of that template despite participating in a dozen AfDs) and Cullen328 for the comprehensive explanation of policy and guidelines. Might end up linking both of your contributions in this thread for my own use down the line. ~ Pbritti (talk) 22:35, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The article meets WP:GNG because the subject has received significant coverage about him directly, beyond just his work with his company, in reliable sources independent of the subject. In this case, the subject has been covered by multiple national news sources (CNBC, CNN, Business Insider) and multiple sources with knowledge of him on a local level (AJC, Erie Times-News). The article references these multiple independent sources that talk about the subject directly, which is why it meets WP:GNG. David Stargell (talk) 02:00, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The individual in question doesn't appear to be well-listed as a contributor to any of the fields she is discussed in, the structural approach is remarkably personalized with respect to the merit of any accomplishments, and the original purpose of the article's creation may very well have been questionable in the first place. Though I may be unfamiliar for the most part with deletion candidates apart from this one, the fact that this rather obscure page about a professional is deemed notable enough to garner a page doesn't sit right with me. Even without all the inadequate detailing that doesn't fit in with Wikipedia's policies, I'd be reluctant to even keep the page if it was perfectly cleaned up. ...You have my go-ahead with the deletion!!!

  • Delete. This article should be deleted unless you want to keep it as a training ground for new Wikipedia editors. Based on the information provided in the article, Loriann Oberlin is not a person of sufficient notability to warrant a Wikipedia entry. Her only notable accomplishment consists of co-authoring the book Overcoming Passive-Aggression (2005), which has itself not been important or influential enough to meet the criteria for a "Creative Professional" in WP:BIO. Her other works are largely self-published or published by ebook companies. The article's references are mainly from sources of dubious integrity and promotional intent. Finally, the article appears to have been written either by Loriann Oberlin herself or someone interested in promoting her, as it is full of subjective, tedious, and unverifiable claims.

  • Keep in light of coverage found by BeanieFan11 (talk · contribs) about one of the top women goalkeepers in Canada, which easily establishes notability per WP:BASIC, most of which is now added to the article. One note is that Hawthorne did not actually end up featuring in the 1995 World Cup, but she was part of the squad, and it does not matter because the coverage is there, plus her career achievements in total are outstanding (15 international caps with 7 clean sheets and 3 medals at CONCACAF; 4 national championships and record for all-time clean sheets at the Canada Soccer National Championships; 11 provincial championships with 4 different clubs). Interestingly, Hawthorne had a very active rec career playing for the women's and men's soccer teams with her work colleagues in the Vancouver Police and BC Transit Police, which is covered in newspaper articles where she is featured. One general comment is that reviewers need to be extra careful in searching for coverage about former players whose careers started more than 10 years ago, as Google searches tend not to capture historical coverage, making additional searches necessary in other databases (e.g. ProQuest, Gale, Newspapers.com, etc.).

  • Delete, setting aside the fact this offers very little information anyway, the sources provided do not indicate this is a notable institution and I have been unable to find any significant coverage that sufficiently asserts notability. Schools can no longer be assumed as notable and simply existing is not enough. Bungle (talkcontribs) 12:23, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Based on "significance", this is the sort of article that needs to be kept and I will explain why. This school is located in the far North, significant, in one of the core Islamic extremist states, [Yobe], highly significant. It has been a successful target for Boko Haram, significant. It is also a girls-only school, highly significant. It was established in the 70s so has history, significant. I am Nigerian and attributing all these to a single school is rare. In the days of NSCHOOLS, this would have been an easy keep because there are sources that show it exists. It is extremely difficult for such schools to receive multiple significant coverage in reliable sources, but evaluating it will tell you it is only a victim of low internet penetration in the region and it is only a matter of time. It is fine if it gets deleted, but left to my interpretation of notability, it should be kept.HandsomeBoy (talk) 23:18, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per WP:BASIC - ‘I literally cried’: ​​Teen field umpire the youngest ever at ​​AFL’s top level (Brisbane Times, Aug. 27, 2022/ Sydney Morning Herald) includes secondary context from an independent and reliable source, even though she is quoted in the context of the reporting focused on her, e.g. "At just 16 years old, Emma Stark has become the youngest field umpire to officiate at the highest level of the AFL after presiding over the Essendon v Hawthorn AFLW game on Saturday night." [...] Stark started umpiring when she was 13 [...] Two years later she became the youngest female field umpire to officiate a 2021 men’s premier league match [...] She entered the women’s league with many accolades already to her name" etc. Also, this is subscription-blocked for me, but the preview says: "Emma Stark has impressed as a player and umpire in her chosen sport of Australian football."

So, almost a year has passed since the final nomination, which ended without a consensus due to the lack of participants, I think it's time take a look at this again. A WP:BEFORE shows that there hasn't been any coverage about him nor the company he founded in the past year, so this will be pretty much a repeat of before.

  • Ref 1 is a "Kimdir?" source from a not-so-good looking website (in terms of reliability). There is clear consensus on trwiki that "Kimdir?"s can't be used to establish notability anyway, regardless of publisher, due to their lack of editorial oversight.
  • Ref 2 is from a reliable and well known place: Hürriyet. However, it's about a problem with Google and includes a statement of Çatak about the probable cause, which is great and all but isn't independent not significant coverage about Çatak himself.
  • I know Daily Sabah of Ref 3 is tagged as unreliable at WP:RSPS, but it's definitely reliable for non-controversial stuff, which this source is. Though content-wise, it is similar to Ref 2, only statements of the subject, and can't be used to establish notability.
  • Ref 4 is pretty much the same: reliable, but only includes statements of the subject. Isn't independent nor SIGCOV.
  • Ref 5 is reliable, but it's exclusively about Gören Duyan. I don't see much about Çatak himself. He is being introduced as the "16-year-old who created it" and includes his statements on how he made it, but there isn't SIGCOV about him. Since notability is not inherited, this source also doesn't provide anything towards the GNG.
  • Ref 7 is an interview uploaded to YouTube. Not independent.
  • Ref 8 is eh. Briefly introduces him and his projects, then it's full his statements which comprises the majority of the source. I think the introduction can be borderline considered as significant coverage.
  • Ref 9 is similar to Ref 5 in terms of content. This time it's a different project, though. In this source, he is only introduced as a "19-year-old entrpreneur", with the rest being fully his statements. No SIGCOV whatsoever.
  • Ref 11 includes a mention of Gören Duyan but no mention of Çatak at all. Isn't SIGCOV.

There is only one source that passes the criteria to establish notability. With this is mind, the subject of the article fails the general notability guideline, and should be deleted. ~StyyxTalk? 17:47, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This seems to be another example of a railroad junction mislabeled by GNIS as a populated place and extrapolated into a community by an overzealous editor. When we strip the general background information about the railroads and namesake railroad man, the only thing this article tells us is that this is where three railroads came together. None of the sources (aside from Hometown Locator) speak of a community, and newspaper sources about a wreck describe the location as "at Alameda and twenty-first street" [10] and "inside the city limits" (of Los Angeles) [11], descriptions that would not be used if this was a recognized community. –dlthewave 17:23, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge with Vernon city, as it is not a place in its own right, per nom. and per my research which suggests that an area of Vernon City, LA is called Clement Junction[12]. This is not on Google maps and the labelling of a railway junction on some maps does not make it a legally recognised place - yet it falls within a possible definition of a populated place withouut legal recognition. Such can be taken on a case by case basis per WP:GEOLAND. In this case, however, the location is Vernon City. WP:GEOLAND allows that non legally recognised places can be considered notable so that a place that is not otherwise covered may be considered notable for an article. In this case the main article is Vernon city. For that reason, Merge with Vernon City makes sense considering there is a small amount of mergeable content. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 19:18, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sirfurboy, are you familiar with WP:GNIS? A large number of locations (including railroad junctions) are mislabeled as "populated places" in the GNIS database, and many directory-style websites simply copied those listings and combined them with other publicly-available data. The source in the article, Hometownlocator, is notorious for this, and it appears that your source similarly lists streets near the junction with no verification of a distinct populated place with that name. In fact it seems that the only sources that mention this as a populated place are ones that scraped their data from GNIS. –dlthewave 19:44, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This is a railroad junction with a small rail yard (8 tracks) in the middle of an industrial area of L.A. It is not and almost certainly never was a populated place and the content in the article is almost entirely irrelevant to the purported subject. It's possible the railroad facilities (past and/or present) here could be notable, but that would not be under this name and confers no notability to the junction itself. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 19:48, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep While this may not necessarily be a significant “populated place” today, if you read the text of the entry you will see why it was quite significant in the early history of the development of railroad infrastructure, freight, and passenger service in the nineteenth and much of the twentieth century. It was the completion of the First Transcontinental Railroad in 1869 and its expansion down to Southern California from the San Francisco Bay Area in the decades immediately following which made this junction an important element in enabling the development of the economy of Los Angeles as well as intercity passenger service to and from the city. The influence of railroads and their influence on every element of the state’s economy and growth was second to none as it connected two thirds of the nation’s Pacific coast to the remaining states and territories located East of California-Oregon-Washington. Rails cut te time it took to mark a journey from the East Coast from as much as 4 to 6 months by sailing ship around Aouth America and Cape Horn to 4 to 6 days via rail. It was key junctions like this one that were essential to making that whole integrated system work and therefore its history deserves to be remembered, recognized and respected. Centpacrr (talk) 00:15, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    That's nice, but doesn't demonstrate that the article meets WP:GNG. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 02:03, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I have now rewritten the lede and body to reflect the historic importance of the establishment of this key rail junction in 1876 to provide the first direct rail access for the Port of Los Angeles (and all of Southern California) to the US transcontinental rail network and have removed all references to Clement Junction as a “populated place” which should cure what appears to have been the sole issue raised about this entry which has otherwise existed on Wikipedia without objection for 14 years. Centpacrr (talk) 04:14, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It still doesn't meet GNG, and the amount of time an article has existed means nothing other than nobody has noticed it didn't meet GNG until now. If you'd like to see what a notable railroad facility's article looks like, consider an article like Cedar Hill Yard, which has many references covering it in significant detail, which is not the case with this article. If this junction cannot be shown to meet GNG, it will be deleted. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 12:53, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Centpacrr:I think the story may be in Los Angeles & San Pedro Railroad, which is definitely a redirect/merge target (after renaming for to convention for junctions). Djflem (talk) 15:29, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It seems to me that “notability” is a completely subjective judgement. While Clement Junction may not be especially “notable” for what it is now, it certainly is for the major historical impact it had on the development of Los Angeles as a major economic engine for the nation at the time of its establishment in 1876 to provide the first means of connecting the Port of Los Angeles as a second major port in the state to the still young (opened in May,1869) first transcontinental rail system (via the “Pacific Railroad”) and thereby the entire country while also revealing the identity of the key figure (engineer Lewis M. Clement) in the design and construction of both the Ogden, UT to San Francisco (1862-69) and San Francisco to Los Angeles (1869-76) grades of the Central Pacific Railroad whose name that both the junction and the surrounding 1.8 sqmi section of Los Angeles that is the home to almost 17,000 people still carry after 153 years. Centpacrr (talk) 08:54, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    There is bound to be some subjectivity in evaluation of notability, but the guidelines are designed to be objective. The key consideration is whether there is sufficient coverage in WP:RS to allow an encylopaedic article to be written on the subject. Sometimes things may not really be notable for their own page but they are part of a bigger story, which is why User:Djflem suggests a redirect andmerge to a location where sourced material about this junction can be included in a page talking about the fuller story of th erailroad.
    My delete !vote was based on the erroneous page here that claimed this was a populated place. It is not, so that delete !vote was right, however, on the basis you have now accepted this is a part of a railroad story, I am happy with redirect/merge to Los Angeles & San Pedro Railroad where your work can be preserved and curated into an article that places it in the context it deserves. I will strike my delete above. But just to be clear, I do not see any evidence of significant coverage for an article in its own right, and nor did I find any when I carried out searches on this subject. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 09:04, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    While this is certainly not the most important entry on he Wikipedia project, it is also not capricious either as provides historical perspective to an important element in the development of California’s transportation infrastructure associated exclusively with this junction established 153 years ago as the first connection by rail of the Port of Los Angeles to the rest of the nation. Centpacrr (talk) 09:21, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    What sources say that? Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 15:55, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Wikipedia articles require citations that provide significant coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. You don't seem to understand that the Wikipedia concept of notability is different than the dictionary definition. You're not going to persuade anyone like this. Plenty of things from a long time ago are still notable in the Wikipedia sense, but this isn't. You have not provided even a single example of significant coverage of this location, and therefore I stand by my delete vote. Your arguments are heavy on emotion and totally lacking in substance, I'm afraid. Plenty of past and present railroad locations are notable, but again, that is shown through significant coverage in reliable independent sources and you've failed to identify any. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 20:04, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The sources do not provide significant coverage needed to establish notability. The Los Angeles & San Pedro Railroad is historic, but I see no evidence that this mere junction should be described that way, much less in its own article. Reywas92Talk 14:09, 29 August 2022 (UTC)\[reply]

    Unclear where you got that. It got a mere 181 views in the year before it was nominated (roughly Special:Random level) (not that pageviews – and certainly not time it's languished with false info calling it a community – are any basis to keep whatsoever anyway).

  • Comment - the article appears to be heavily promotional autobiography. It was created by, heavily edited by, and images uploaded by Юлия Долгорукова which translates to the name of the artist. I'm still checking into the sourcing, however an online search revealed nothing that could substantiate the claims that shes in all those museum collections. Whenever I see an artist's article (other than perhaps an "old master" or very well known modern/contemporary artist) with a huge image gallery, it's usually a hint that it's just a promotional advertorial work, just my two cents. Will !vote when I look into sourcing more thouroughly. Netherzone (talk) 18:32, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy Keep Hello, dear sirs! I want to point out the nominator's mistakes. Firstly, there is information in English, you can read that Julia Dolgorukova is the first modern famous Russian artist who became the prototype of the main character of a feature film[15]. Secondly, there are articles about it in other languages, for example, in Finnish[16]. Thirdly, there is a catalog of the famous exhibition in English, where it is listed among the participants[17]. Fourth, the official newspaper of the Ministry of Culture of Russia "CULTURE" wrote about it in 1995[18]. Fifth, there are official documents from museums that her paintings are in these museums, for example:[19]. Sixth, the official portal of the Ministry of Culture of Russia currently reports on her exhibitions:[20][21]. In the Russian wikipedia, this article was nominated for deletion 11 years ago, but following the discussion it was abandoned. A leading art expert from St. Petersburg took part in the discussion. Олег Черкасский (talk) 15:14, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment - @Smerus, if you have the time to check the accuracy my analysis of the sources presented above by @Олег Черкасский, that would be appreciated (I used machine translation). The "feature film" reference on the "International Records Agency" website appears to be user-submitted content - there are links on the main page that state that anyone can "apply" to set a record, and even "invite a judge".[22]. This does not seem like a reliable source since anyone can apply; therefore not independent. The Finnish article is a review of a group show of three artists, which contains four sentences on Dolgoukova's work, it includes a photo of her with one of her paintings - it is independent, but is not in-depth coverage, - we would need more than that.[23] The "'famous exhibition' at 10 Gogolevsky Blvd" citation is simply a name check in a long list of participants in a group show with dozens of artists - not SIGCOV. Re: the Ministry of Culture newspaper, I can't seem to find any mention on her, but perhaps others can.[24], the "Official portal of the MoC" citations consist of two press releases, that specifically state The administration of the Kultura.RF portal is not responsible for the material provided, as well as for the actions of the Organizer and / or other persons acting on his behalf and on his behalf or on his own behalf, but on behalf of the Organizer, including in connection with the implementation tickets by such persons, as well as for the organization, holding and maintenance of the Event. which means it is a user-or-PR submitted press release.[25][26]. I'm not sure of what to make of this: [27] whether it's a shipping receipt or a bill of sale, or? At this time I am leaning towards delete, as none of the above constitutes significant coverage in independent sources. I performed a BEFORE using three spellings of her name, Julia Dolgorukova, Юлия Долгорукова, and Yulia Dolgorukova, on Google, JSTOR, WP Library and ProQuest, and could not find the kind of coverage one would expect a "famous artist" to have. The article is extremely promotional WP:PROMO, quite possibly self-promotional and it now has CITE OVERKILL. Not sure if the awards are notable, but my guess is they are not. I'll continue to hold off on !voting for now. Netherzone (talk) 16:18, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The Finnish article №2:[28], Artikles in magazin "NEW TIMES" [29]. "...anyone can "apply" to set a record..." - Try it! This is the Russian equivalent of the Guinness World Records. "юююsimply a name check in a long list of participants..." - These are the most famous Russian nonconformist artists of 80-90. Kultura newspaper - the main newspaper about culture in Russia. An article in this newspaper is proof of the person's significance. Only state and municipal cultural institutions have the right to publish on the portal "Culture". Private individuals and PR do not have access to this portal. The articles were published by the largest state concert institution in Moscow "Mosconcert" and the Cultural Center "Uspenskoe" in the most prestigious area of the Moscow region[30][31]. [32] This is a document of acceptance for permanent storage of a painting by Yulia Dolgorukova in the Kostroma Regional Museum of Fine Arts 18.06.1994 [33]. I have personally seen several such documents [34][35][36]. The painting "Red House" was bought for the museum by the administration of the city of Kostroma for 2,150.000 rubles[37]. Subsequently, this work was stolen from the museum and Julia Dolgorukova presented her painting "Still Life with a yellow pear" to this museum. Олег Черкасский (talk) 17:34, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Could you please explain how it is that you have access to the artist's personal web server, their financial records, news clippings, etc.?[dolgorukova.h1n.ru] You are obviously connected to the artist in a significant way, please disclose the connection. Thank you in advance, Netherzone (talk) 19:29, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The connection is very simple: I have been living in Moscow since 1987. Since that time I have been visiting exhibitions of contemporary artists. Julia Dolgorukova is the brightest artist, I began to follow her work. I was in New York in 1994 and some expat artists knew about it. For example, Ernst Neizvestny was friends with her father. I also personally knew Eduard Drobitsky, Boris Bich and many artists of this circle. The article about Julia Dolgorukova is my first experience on wikipedia, so I studied the person very carefully. And, since I work in the IT field, it is not difficult for me to find information. Now I have created a program that calculates the investment attractiveness of paintings by contemporary artists. That's why I chose several artists, including Julia, to test my program. She lives in Turkey, and I also know that her father is Estonian and her mother is Latvian. But I can't write this in the article, because it's not written anywhere on the Internet. And I would be very interested to learn about contemporary artists who have become prototypes of the main characters of films. Maybe there are a lot of them? Олег Черкасский (talk) 20:38, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It is clear that you are connected to the artist. You have access to her financial records, photographic documentation, have access to her web-server dolgorukova.h1n.ru and have created a program to calculate the investment attractiveness of her paintings it appears that you have a conflict of interest WP:COI, and should stop editing the article directly and instead use the edit request feature, and follow the instructions for declaration described in the COI link provided. You should also carefully read WP:UPE as it seems that you have a financial stake in her career. Thank you. Netherzone (talk) 21:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion is not an alternative to cleanup, and while yes the article needs work (an understatement), it is not at WP:TNT levels of criticality. The nom did make a comment that "Criticism of X" articles are generally depreciated, and while there is some truth to the fact that Criticism articles should generally be avoided, WP:CRITS specifically points out that major worldview concepts like religions are a general exception to that, which is further explained in Wikipedia:Criticism#Philosophy, religion, or politics. - Aoidh (talk) 21:32, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article seems to not have significant coverage. According to WP:NSTADIUM, coverage is needed, and there is no inherent notability just because a few matches have been played. Ranji Trophy matches cannot even be used to determine notability for players as per WP:OFFCRIC.

  • Delete. County commission is not a level of office that guarantees inclusion in Wikipedia in and of itself — the lowest level of political office that is "inherently" notable is the state legislature, while politicians at the county commission level get articles only if either (a) they have some other notability claim that would already have gotten them an article anyway, or (b) they can show and source credible evidence that they're significantly more notable than most other county commissioners. But this is referenced entirely to the run of the mill local coverage that every county commissioner in every county could always show, which isn't sufficient as it doesn't establish a reason why he would be more special than the norm.

  • Comment: There are a few sources for IGlobal University:
Some of the above are passing mentions or a listing on a site where it appears the college submitted information, so not independent. There may be other sources for this school, but perhaps not in English. There are many sources about a "harmony search algorithm" by Prof. Zong Woo Geem of iGlobal University, who may be notable, but so far there do not appear to be enough RS in English to meet the requirements of SIGCOV, to pass GNG.WP:NORG, which is the guideline for institutions that are for-profit.

  • Keep (albeit weakly), doing a search on newspapers.com brings up many results for this institution, but I haven't extensively assessed them all to feel confident making a keep !vote with conviction. What I see suggests that there is a chance we could demonstrate sufficient notability, which is perhaps not too surprising for a 170+ year old institution.

Similarly to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/East Ridge (Wolf's Head), which was just closed as delete, this climbing route is not independently notable from Pingora Peak, which it is on. Does not meet WP:GNG and content should be deleted or merged. —Ganesha811 (talk) 01:08, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
