This article was created in 2003 by an IP editor (because in 2003, IPs could create articles). In its nearly 19-year history, it has never cited a single source, and in my opinion it's not sourceable, because this content is pure OR from start to finish.

I'm willing to be proven wrong, but looks like a fairly run-of-the-mill ice-cream shop with nothing more than the normal publicity that I'd expect. I can't see great sources. Someone just added some information about them teaming up with Microsoft, which looked potentially interesting, but they ref-bombed it with a huge list of very weak sources, so I'm not even convinced by that. Doesn't look in any way notable. Elemimele (talk) 22:51, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, of course. Mikey's has collaborated with Geico, Microsoft, and Ewing, but more importantly it has a ton of coverage in reliable sources, including Vice, Essence, NY Post, and ABC News, among others. pburka (talk) 00:33, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep just because it's a stub right now doesn't mean it can't be expanded. A quick Google search turned up dozens of articles, some almost 10 years ago and one from only 6 days ago, showing that it does have lasting coverage. >>> Wgullyn.talk(); 01:29, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Wgullyn: I'd be really grateful if you could suggest one that's not an interview. It'd be just so good if we can get this article supported by at least one source that's independent of the subject. All four of those suggested by Pburka are interviews/churnalism and when I did my googling, all I could find was a complete plethora of almost identical interview-based pieces, and blog-type stuff about the Microsoft icecream. Elemimele (talk) 09:40, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    In the spirit of honesty, I should make it clear that I removed a sentence about the microsoft collaboration before creating this AfD because it was supported by no less than 17 citations, all of which were to interviews, blogs etc.; anyone who wishes to assess those sources is welcome to have a look at the previous version here [1]. Elemimele (talk) 09:45, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    There are some reliable sources on the topic, including The Verge NBC eater.com. Sure, there are a lot of interviews, but there are definitely secondary sources in the mix. >>> Ingenuity.talk(); 13:00, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The dismissal of any source that includes an interview isn't supported by Wikipedia policies, and dismissing reliable sources as "churnalism" certainly isn't. Regardless, the business has also received significant coverage in Rehabilitation Is Reentry (Garot; p. 315; Routledge; 2019), and Stronger Together (Clinton and Kaine; p. 201; Simon & Schuster; 2016). pburka (talk) 16:04, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Lots of editors fail to realise that sources may be used to support facts/information within an article - and sure, interviews are fine for that. But there's a different examination for sources used to establish notability - and primary sources (which is what an interview is) are not acceptable for certain topics, such as companies/organizations. Check out WP:ORGIND and the definition for "Independent Content". HighKing++ 12:49, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Okay, please do put the book references in. But honestly the existing sources apart from your books are not good sources. Theverge one says next to nothing about the ice-cream business, it's mostly a promotional piece for microsoft, and quite probably commissioned publicity. The Newyork entertainment piece is a short interview piece featuring 4 icecream outlets, of which this one gets less than 30sec. The eater is also really just a passing reference, being mostly about Hilary Clinton. These are fine as subsidiary references, but is there anything in depth and independent? If the books are, please put them in, because the article desperately needs them.
    as for the comment about dismissing interviews, Pburka, I quote "Generally speaking, it is okay to sparingly use interviews to source some facts, so long as the article is also using a good mixture of other types of reliable sources" from Wikipedia:Interviews. That's precisely what I want. Elemimele (talk) 16:16, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I trust you're not mistaking an essay for policy. pburka (talk) 16:54, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete This is a company/organization therefore NCORP guidelines apply. The WP:RESTAURANTREVIEWS section most likely applies to this type of company.
  • I'm assuming all the sources are reliable (unless obvious blogs or social media) and the publishers are corporately independent from the topic organization - but there's more requirements than that for establishing notability.
  • As per WP:SIRS each reference must meet the criteria for establishing notability - the quantity of coverage is irrelevant, there can be 100 references but for the purposes of establishing notability we only require a minumum of two that each meet the criteria
  • WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content".
  • "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include 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. They are considered primary sources for most purposes. Whatever is left over must also meet CORPDEPTH.
Not a single reference either mentioned above or in the article meet the criteria. Most discuss the tie-in with Windows11 but even then, the others focus on the owner/founder - great story but doesn't translate to notability of the company for me. Topic therefore fails WP:NCORP. If anyone wants to post other references (perhaps reviews?) I'm happy to review and perhaps change my mind. HighKing++ 12:46, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • @Vanamonde93: thank you for your accurate summary. My personal view is that although the supporting sources are in good places, they're all fairly trivial, and generic: for example one is an interview piece visiting several ice-cream outlets, which means it's more about the concept of ice-cream sales in NY than about Mikey's, and is a rather short feel-good space-filler; the Microsoft bit is about Mikey's, but my impression is that some marketing people had a mutually-beneficial idea, and this is the sort of publicity they'd generate to carry it through. My attention was drawn to this article in the first place by an addition that was ref-bombed with 17 sources, some of which were automatically tagged as deprecated and unreliable [2]. But of course many bad sources doesn't mean all bad sources. And I am absolutely happy to put my hands up and admit I don't know the full details of the ice-cream or publishing scenes in NY: an independent assessment of the sources from someone else would carry far more weight than mine.

  • Delete - minimal coverage exists of this two (three?) location ice cream chain. Fails WP:GNG. Also, WP:TOOSOON. It's a nice feel good story - hopefully more coverage will occur as he expands. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 00:20, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question. The article would probably be a narrow pass on WP:GNG, but the community norm is that a mere WP:GNG pass when coupled with an WP:NCORP fail renders an article notable. Much of the coverage is about Cole as a person—coverage of Cole's story as a convicted felon-turned-ice cream salesman is an inspiring story, the coverage of which very well may render him passing WP:NBIO. But I'm not really seeing coverage in the online sources that the pair of stores passes WP:CORPDEPTH. I'm seeing above that pburka mentions at least one usable book (I'm not so sure about Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign manifesto being an RS in this context). I don't have access to the source, but I might be persuaded that coverage goes beyond WP:CORPDEPTH if the coverage in that book is substantial. Is anybody able to describe the sorts of facts that the book contains regarding the article subject? — Mhawk10 (talk) 05:21, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The player has done an interview with The Sun, one of the largest papers in the UK, this is enough of a notable source to prove he's a person of note. Kobe Chong is a large figure in Malaysia, having a large fanbase and his Social Media following reflective of this. Other Wikipedia editors have made links to Peterborough's Wikipedia where he features on there, again showing he's of note.

Please end discussion as there's enough proof to show he warrants an article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Benpring112 (talkcontribs) 22:47, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Subject does have a Peterborough squad number, so might make a debut in the foreseeable future, so I wouldn't normally oppose draftifying. However, in this case the content is not only attributed to the deprecated source – see WP:THESUN, which says There is consensus that The Sun is generally unreliable. References from The Sun are actively discouraged from being used in any article and they should not be used for determining the notability of any subject, much of it is copy-pasted from that source and therefore a copyright violation. Once that content is removed, there's very little left, and the creator might do better starting again either in draftspace or in their own sandbox. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 13:47, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • I took a look at the additional sources, I don't think they make a case for keep. These three sources, [3], [4] and [5] are mere-mentions that at most could help make a case that he should be mentioned at United Liberation Front of Asom. This source was mangled by Google Translate for me [6], but even if given benefit of the doubt on its depth (which, based on what did translate successfully, it probably doesn't deserve) looking at the homepage of the host website [7] it appears to be a blog post and thus not reliable unless the author is a recognized expert on the subject.

This paper on Assamese digitization says Nila charai, Xahitya are all literary magazines. The state contains as many people as California, but with only 35% connected to internet, a lot of latitude is necessary in things like site appearances. Hemantha (talk) 10:35, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, looking again that appears to be a literary magazine and they have an English About Us page that describes an editorial board. That having been said, I had another go at translation with a different service and...it looks like a false positive. The segments of text that may have been referring to the subject are:
The name Laura did not come to mind at that time. But how can we hurt his respect and sincerity! It's not that I don't love you, it's that I don't love you, it's that I don't love you, it's that I don't love you. He smiled at me and said, "I'm excited, I mean excited audience." Real name is Rajen Sharma. I am her goddess Nripen Sharma. ' Shameless self-promotion for Ballistic Products and a great bargain on a neat little knife for you. The story of his sacrifice, which was read aloud. "I am a follower of Gandhiji's ideals," he said. Lara's ideology does not match my ideology. Even so, owning one is still beyond the reach of the average person. My only son was very talented. Sapon looked at the shelf. He died in the country. We are proud of that. But what happened now? Most of his logs are out of the room. '
and
His words came true. ‘My Lara could be ideal for tens. Many still remember him. Many people have written to Molai Tinukukiya, Margherita, saying, "Goddess Uddipta is not dead. We have named my daughter Uddipta. Uddipta."
At most, this is a literary allusion to the subject in a work of fiction, and based on the text there's still a fair chance that this is a total coincidence. signed, Rosguill talk 17:10, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep for now for much the same reasons as the other related AfD. There's a small paragraph on him in this brief book. Works like this poem and a novel Sanglot Fenla being dedicated to him indicate some cultural impact. This paper analyzing some of the pamphlets by the subject, says In their paeans to ULFA rebels and their sympathizers and supporters, the names of Uddipta Hazarika, the first publicity chief of the organization and Kabi Ranjan Saikia are hallowed The appeals of difficult-to-access offline sources, usually made facilely in areas with much higher internet penetration, appear to actually apply here and this article, created only a couple of months ago, should be given more time, with perhaps a notability or sourcing tag.

Stats entry on a subject that only marginally scrapes an WP:NFOOTBALL pass with two professional games in 2013, after which he disappeared from the professional game. Cup games in 2014 don't count as he was playing in the semi-pro 2013–14 Cypriot Second Division.

A Google News search yielded nothing at all while this Greek language search failed to find any WP:SIGCOV. All I could find was EPSM24 announcing his release - this article tells us nothing that we don't already know from reading his Soccerway page. Sports Up also has an article mentioning him but this also contains no detailed coverage of Karas.

  • Delete we really need to go to at least a 3 game minimum for passing of football notability.

Staugaard was a non-medlalist at the Olympics, she seems to have come in 18th in the one competition she was in. I could not find any indepth source about her. The swimming database says just her name and that she was in this Olympics. A newspaper source turned up some mentions of another person with this name in Indiana in the 1970s who was somehow connected with fashion, no sourcing on this person. The sourcing on the other person suggests this is not even the primary likely target of searches for this name and that there is no merit in having this article.

  • Redirect - only one person of this name on Wikipedia. WP:R#HARMFUL urges against deleting a longstanding article without replacing it by a redirect. Redirects to list items are fine; there is a redirect template especially for it. The suggestion that the name should be reserved for some person from Indiana of apparently marginal notability who has no article is very odd. Unlike above editors, I don't feel justified in accepting that the "other" LS is meaningfully more notable just on someone's say-so. Ingratis (talk) 19:44, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • However there is nothing about this person that is notable, and no reason to preserve the listing of the person as a redirect unless we have compelling reason to think that they are notable. Your proposal seems to treat Wikipedia longevity as a sign of anything worth noting. The reality is Wikipedia longevity is a result of Wikipedia having been flooded with junk when it was created, and we have still not sorted all that junk out.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:35, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Our "article" on Peter Mazzoni was created on 24 January 2011 by User:Mazzonicenter, as one of their two substantive contributions. (The other was Mazzoni Center.) I suspect the possibility of a conflict of interest.
Above I place the word "article" in scare-quotes because in fact this is not an article. It is, in my view, no more than a set of notes from which an article might possibly be developed in future. I think it's better to describe this as "content".
Anyway, almost immediately after creation, this content was tagged as lacking sources, and shortly thereafter, User:Wtshymanski wisely proposed that it should be deleted. The PROD was declined next day by User:Graeme Bartlett. I think Mr Bartlett's grounds for declining the deletion are that Mazzoni might potentially be notable.
And there the matter rested. For the subsequent eleven years, nobody has added a source, or developed it into text. In fact, I believe that I have put more effort into this deletion nomination than anyone has ever put into writing an article on Peter Mazzoni.
I put it to the community that we can't host totally unsourced content forever, and that this content is not an encyclopaedia article, and that if someone does in due course want to develop it into an encyclopaedia article, then this is not a particularly helpful starting point. Let's delete it. —S Marshall T/C 15:47, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I fail to see how this is notable (again). As with the prior AFD, the sources are almost entirely funding announcements, press releases, their own website, listings and the NYT piece is a basic announcement of leadership roles - so not specifically coverage.

The two NYT sources are webdenda's, which means they aren't the same standard that most of NYT's publications are - it lacks a byline too. It isn't coverage.

I neither wish this gets deleted, nor that it doesn't; just want to run it by the community. The current sources are non-RS (IMDb and a YouTube clip), hence more and better would be needed to consolidate notability. My question is, should this have a standalone article in the first place, even if better sources could be found? According to this Wellcome Collection catalogue entry it's one of a set of 781 (!) collotypes from Muybridge's 1887 Animal locomotion publication, and it doesn't seem sensible to me to have an article on each individual one; the only one I've found so far is The Horse in Motion, others are covered in the main article on Eadweard Muybridge. In other words, essentially a question of WP:PAGEDECIDE, I guess. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:49, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not really a separable (or answerable) question. If it has the sourcing to satisfy WP:GNG, then there is no particular reason it shouldn't have a separate page, ala The Horse in Motion, except WP:PAGEDECIDE, but that guideline depends in each individual instance on what the GNG-satisfying page looks like compared to how the same content might be integrated into another specific page. As such, 'should' can't even be addressed until 'could' is resolved so we know what an acceptable page looks like and how that specific content may look integrated elsewhere. Agricolae (talk) 17:32, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Agricolae: where does it say that 'could' automatically and inevitably must lead to 'should'? Genuine question, I wasn't aware of that policy. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:59, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I never said it did. The established benchmark for an independent page is NOTABILITY (GNG, as demonstrated by sourcing - i.e. 'could'). I can think of two guidelines whereby a topic qualifying might be deemed better addressed without a stand-alone page ('should'). One is PAGEDECIDE, basically just 'sometimes it works better to cover two closely-related things together', and as I said, that is addressed on a case-by-case basis (and pretty much requires 'could' to already be satisfied or we won't know what we are talking about merging versus keeping separate, what proportion would be unique and what must be duplicated to have separate pages). The other, though not expressed as such, is really just a specific case of the phenomenon PAGEDECIDE covers, OVEEVENT, where if someone's entire notability is inextricably linked to a single event, then they should be addressed on the page covering that event rather than separately (unless it would make the parent page overlong), but that doesn't apply here. Other than these, the only basis for 'should' that comes to mind is the entirely subjective and invalid IDONTLIKEIT/ILIKEIT. Agricolae (talk) 19:04, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    WRT to "should": The larger set that this image is a part of is very notable, and lots of very high quality sources exist. We should have an article on Animal locomotion : An electro-photographic investigation of consecutive phases of animal movements, but not on an individual plate contained in it. Since, unfortunately, no such article exists yet, anything from that Capybara Walking article that is salvageable, which is almost nothing, can be merged into the article on Eadweard Muybridge or into The Horse in Motion.

The article The Horse in Motion correctly says that it is "is a series of cabinet cards" and does not claim it as the "the first film about" anything. The argument that it should be kept as "the first of " something doesn't work if it isn't that at all. Vexations (talk) 12:29, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
As a fanboy of historic firsts, whatever Capybara Walking is it predates most other significant rodent media by decades. Muybridge's series is important, and since there is no central article, keeping another example doesn't seem far-fetched or undue. Randy Kryn (talk) 02:40, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
But we can't base conclusions about significance on a single editor's personal say-so. We need a source that makes the observation.

  • Redirect to Eadweard Muybridge Edit in light of subsequent creation: Animal Locomotion. The sources added, several archive/library catalog entries, do not indicate WP:NOTABILITY - the bar is higher than simply proving something exists, which is all these do. Neither IMDB nor YouTube are WP:RS so they carry no weight whatsoever. That leaves the article with a grand total of zero instances of reliable sources providing significant coverage, a total fail of WP:GNG. (And there is no guideline that states that 'probably the first film about foo can be presumed to be notable', even if we had a reliable source saying this is what this is, which we don't.

Neither being a council member of a student organization nor being a non-winning candidate in an election pass WP:NPOL, the article is based on primary and unreliable sources that aren't support for notability at all, and one piece of coverage of her non-winning candidacy is not enough coverage to get her over WP:GNG in lieu of having to hold a notable role. Every last manjack or womanjack candidate in every election everywhere can always show at least one hit of media coverage in that context — so the test for making candidates notable as candidates isn't just "a hit of coverage can be found", it's "such an unusual volume and depth of coverage can be found that she has a credible claim to being significantly more notable than most other non-winning candidates", which isn't what that one hit shows.

Burmese Tricolour[edit]

Burmese Tricolour (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

Proposed blank and redirect; using AfD process per a community consensus in 2021.

This article's creator, နေနီဝန်း, asserts that the term "Burmese Tricolour" only refers to the flags used by the Dobama Asiayone and never to the current flag of Myanmar. The content of this article also reflects this claim, but none of the sources given do.

Two of the sources were written before 2010, when the current flag of Myanmar was adopted. Obviously, they would not make any references to the current flag, nor claim that the term "Burmese Tricolour" only refers to the flags used by the Dobama Asiayone. Thus, two of the sources cannot be used to verify this claim.

The Union flag law source given only stipulates the regulations surrounding how to display the flag and does not even verify the sentence "The current flag of Myanmar (since 2010) uses the tricolour background to indicate the magnificence of the Tricolour flag.", nor the aforementioned assertion about the term "Burmese Tricolour".

The Lost Footsteps is not the best source as it is self-published, but the first sentence reads, "The current tricolour was first adopted in the 1930s by Dobama Asiayone (the ultra-nationalist "We Burmans" association)." This is true in the sense that "tricolour" refers to the colour combination, as that is what the word "tricolour" means in English (and all other languages unless there is some nuance I am not aware of in Burmese); it never means a specific flag.

It is also worth noting that the Myanmar Wikipedia's equivalent article is about a song, and does not make the claim that "Burmese Tricolour" only refers to the flags used by the Dobama Asiayone.

This article should be changed to a redirect to Flag of Myanmar#Inspiration. List of Burmese flags can also be used to list details about the Dobama Asiayone's flags, as it has not been proven that this article's topic and content are notable enough to warrant its own article. CentreLeftRight 08:37, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The flags used during 1935-1945 was commonly known and referred to the Tricolour but current national flag is not.

The English version of the Union Flag Law in article 4 states that "The yellow, green and red colours included as background colours indicate the three-coloured flag which was applied magnificently in the period of struggle for the independence of Myanmar." It's Burmese version is "နိုင်ငံတော်အလံတွင် အဝါရောင် အစိမ်းရောင်နှင့် အနီရောင်တို့ အောက်ခံအဖြစ်ပါရှိခြင်းမှာ မြန်မာနိုင်ငံ လွတ်လပ်ရေး ကြိုးပမ်းမှုကာလက ထည်ဝါစွာ အသုံးပြုခဲ့သော သုံးရောင်ခြယ်အလံကို အလေးအမြတ်ပြု ဖော်ညွှန်း ခြင်းဖြစ်သည်။" which may be translated as "In the State flag, the inclusion of yellow, green and red as background is honouring and indicating the Tricolour used during the period of struggling for independence of Myanmar".

The referenced Lost Footsteps is not mine.

The symbolizations of the colours are also different between the Tricolour and the National Flag of Myanmar, despite having the same colours.

  • In Dobama Tricolour;

the yellow symbolizes "religion (Buddhism) Sasana and education" [ဘာသာ သာသနာ ပညာ];
the green symbolizes "paddy, rice and water (staple grains and crops), and gold, silver, jewelry (precious mineral resources)" [စပါးဆန်ရေ၊ ရွှေငွေရတနာ];
the red symbolizes bravery or courage [ရဲစိတ်ရဲမာန်]
but there was no defination of white and other colours. Reference: သုံးရောင်ခြယ် https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=amN0RW1n4gk

the red symbolizes bravery and decisiveness [ရဲရင့်ခြင်းနှင့် ပြတ်သားခြင်း];
the white colour of the star symbolizes purity, honesty, fullness of compassion and power [သန့်ရှင်းစင်ကြယ်ခြင်း ဖြောင့်မတ်မှန်ကန်ခြင်း၊ ကရုဏာတရား ပြည့်ဝခြင်းနှင့် စွမ်းအင်နှင့် ပြည့်စုံခြင်]. Reference: Union Flag Law [နိုင်ငံတော်အလံဥပဒေ]

One of main contentions is that the distinction does not exist in English, but I recognise that that argument might be counterintuitive given that most viewers of an article (on the English Wikipedia) as niche as historical Burmese flags would likely be Burmese English language speakers. If the consensus is to keep this article, I would argue that it is better to just add {{For}} (i.e. This article is about the first tricolour (etc.) ... for the current flag of Myanmar, see Flag of Myanmar) to the top of Burmese tricolour (I do not think the capitalisation is justified) and to delete Myanmar tricolour (Disambiguation).
However, another issue I see is that the article topic itself is not very notable. It's a stub article about the flag of an organisation that became a popular anti-colonialist symbol, but I don't see why such a topic couldn't be covered in Flag of Myanmar or even in one of the tables in List of Burmese flags.

From the precedent set in that discussion, I dare say a good hundred or so more season articles could probably be deleted. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 18:47, 10 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - it's a shame as Dumbarton have, I think, a full set of season articles with a lot of time and effort clearly having gone into their creation. But they are sourced almost entirely from one book and one club stats site, and for the majority of their history they have played in the lower divisions, so I just don't see these as having SIGCOV or meeting NSEASONS (there are a few periods of top-tier play which I understand would be valid for retention). What I would suggest is that the significant events and couple of lines from the overview of this and each invalid year could be grouped together under something like Dumbarton F.C. 1990s seasons, which I understand is an acceptable alternative to a set of individual articles. Crowsus (talk) 23:50, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Definitely a good possibility. Alternatively, we could have a prose article like History of Dumbarton F.C. which could be split into articles if it gets too big, like we do with History of Liverpool F.C.

  • Lean towards keep There are enough sources in the article and out there to technically pass GNG. Part of the nomination for deletion states the club is "part-time football club". I really don't understand that statement, there is no such thing as a part-time football club. The club file their accounts with companies house state the club run under "small companies regime" and have opted to not file their statement of income. [14], In the report it is indicated that the total number of employees is 23 for the year 2020. I can't see this being all the footballers, so it seems that the club is operating in a semi-professional format. So the season would fail under WP:NSEASONS. But that doesn't supersede GNG which can probably be sorted out. Govvy (talk) 13:24, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Govvy, "part-time football club" is a fairly standard way in British English to refer to a team which has only semi-pro players..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:30, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • @ChrisTheDude: That's rather archaic terminology if you ask me. Even in the off season a club still has to be run. File it's accounts every year; year after year... Govvy (talk) 13:44, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        • @Govvy: you are almost certainly right, but I was just pointing out that the expression is definitely used eg in this BBC article, which states Tickets and travel have had to be sorted, media engagements fulfilled, training venues secured and sponsors contacted, which is a heavy demand on a part-time club. Anyhoo, this is getting a bit off-topic now..... :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 14:01, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I've followed this debate for 2 weeks and I'm not convinced that the sourcing required to pass WP:GNG actually exists here. I believe that this should be deleted with no prejudice to being restored if someone does come forward with significant coverage of this season in reliable sources that are independent of Dumbarton F.C. itself. I really do believe that an article like History of Dumbarton F.C. would be more appropriate than having stand-alone articles for every single season which, in my view, borders on WP:INDISCRIMINATE. We set the standards very high at this AfD for season articles and this was upheld at this DRV. It would be silly to keep this article on a season with much, much less in terms of evidence of notability. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 22:08, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I listed this for proposed deletion as "no actual notability -- merely being the last surviving veteran of a military expedition is not notability" ; the prod was removed by Necrothesp , with the comment "deprod; we have usually found the last surviving veteran from a particular country of a particular war to be notable"; simultaneously the original and only contributor to the article,L'Origine du monde commented: "I'm fine with deletion - I couldn't find any reliable sources for him."

  • Delete I'm not aware of any policy/guideline that would state that [we] have generally considered the last surviving veteran from a particular country of a particular war to be notable, so I'm judging this by WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO standards. For the latter, none of the criteria appear to apply. For WP:SIGCOV purposes, I found a short obituary online, but it appeared to be non-independent (no byline, etc.). There are also passing mention in the books Russian Sideshow: America's Undeclared War and Quartered in Hell: The Story of the American North Russia Expeditionary Force, 1918-1919 according to Google Books, but these appear to both be far from sufficient to count for WP:GNG purposes.

  • Delete the "last surviving vereran from any particular war" is notable guideline would be insane? Are we ready to make articles on every person who is the last surviving veteran of every country in World War II? World War I? Would we do this for countries that were not indepdent at the time, so the last surviving verteran from Mali in World War I, even though at the time Malians fought in the French Army and Mali was part of French West Africa? What about for microonations? In this case it is also the US deployment of troops into Russia, so where does this lead? Articles on the last surviving verteran on both sides of every conflict between the US and Native Americans groups? The last surviving veteran of every US deployment of troops into Latin American countries? The last surviving veterna of both El Salvador and Honduras to fight in the football war?

  • Keep: someone has done the work to distinguish these two people (easily confused: American media types), each of whom might have reasonably had a redirect pointing to the article where they are mentioned, and the dab page not only does the work of both those redirects but helps avoid future editors incorrectly conflating the two into one person.

There has been significant conversation as to this association's notability on the article talk for years, but consensus was never clear. Especially with changing notability guidelines since this article was created, it's time for a conversation. While i can find them mentioned in articles "according to..." and their research is occasionally cited, it isn't cited frequently enough to meet any guidelines there, and sourcing is well short of CORPDEPTH significance to meet the GNG.

This is a campground and marina, which is what it said on the topos before someone left out the "Marina" and hand wrote in the "campground". Before Lake Powell, it was nothing at all. So "Bullfrog" seems to be a fiction born out of bad map editing and reading. What's particularly, well, something is that the article was created both calling it a "small community" and saying that it was a campground/marina. At any rate, there's no way this passes notability. Mangoe (talk) 04:51, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Geography and Utah. CAPTAIN RAJU(T) 05:34, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'd point out that this wasn't a GNIS-sourced item in its earliest revisions, but in fact it was an indirect GNIS-sourced one, sourced to a "hometownlocator". The GNIS records referenced aren't in the current WWW interface which has had all non-ppl and "(historic)" records excluded. The several "Bullfrog" records in the unabridged database were three "locales" (i.e. places that weren't even populated), a "bay" named Bullfrog Bay, and an "airport" named Bullfrog Basin Airport. (Bullfrog Creek is actually somewhere else.) This is suggestive of a possible refactoring into geography.

    Researching, I find that it is both a campground and a marina. It's a USNPS resort on Lake Powell in the NRA. The Scott&Scott guidebook to National Park Lodges published by Rowman & Littlefield notes that the lodge was "constructed in the early 1980s", which is after GNIS phase 1, and the hand annotations to the maps would have been part of GNIS phase 2. There's an iUniverse book by a "retired businessman" and a "Lake Powell veteran" whose credentials to research history I do not trust.

    But after encountering some 1960s sources I finally find ISBN 9780816518876 which is a University of Arizona Press book that documents Bullfrog Basin, which has been a redirect here since 2008. So it looks like renaming over that redirect and refactoring with sources like that in hand is the answer.

    Uncle G (talk) 10:43, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    • Addendum, ISBN 9781607813118, a University of Utah Press book, is another such source, which has a bit about the 1960s expansion of the marina on page 47. Uncle G (talk) 10:54, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

      • I have to question a mid 1960s expansion of the area, because the lake only started filling in 1963. Be that as it may, we are still left with a routine recreational facility of no especial note, and I see that of the other facilities mentioned in the Lake Powell article, the only two that have their own articles are one place that for some unfathomable reason is graced with a CDP, and another which WLs to a supposed drowned town, not to the facility. It would actually make sense to expand the section on the facilities in the main Lake Powell article, and redirect Bullfrog Basin to that, but Bullfrog itself remains a complete fiction. Mangoe (talk) 05:23, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        • A fiction with fairly convincing big concrete signs. It's just not an "unincorporated community". It's a campground, marina, airport, and ferry terminus. And people were doing stuff on the river before it became a lake. Uncle G (talk) 08:45, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

          • That is a sign for (as it says) a visitor center, not a community. I'm still have trouble with where you are going with this. It's not a community; it's a complex of recreational facilities run for the NPS by a contractor. Is it notable as such? So far, I'm not convinced. It seems to have the same sort of coverage that any such facility gets. Mangoe (talk) 02:43, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
            • Well I'm definitely not going down your "Bullfrog doesn't exist." route, given that that would put me into direct conflict with a photographer for NPR who has apparently been there. ☺ Uncle G (talk) 07:33, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    • As per above, there is no "Bullfrog, Utah". Mangoe (talk) 05:23, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and rename perhaps either to Bullfrog Basin or Bullfrog Marina. I think this is a notable area with a variety of services in the National Recreation Area that has enough coverage to warrant an article. Thanks to Uncle G for solid improvements. However I would still suggest a merge to Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, but that article is astonishingly poor and this would be undue there. I guess most of the content is at Lake Powell, so reorganization may be warranted, with a merge to a subarticle or subsection focusing on the several marinas on the lake. If someone wanted to work on that it'd be nice. Reywas92Talk 03:16, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Bullfrog Marina already existed in a poor state: I have redirected it here. Reywas92Talk 03:18, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • Bullfrog Basin Airport might be mergeable, too. Our article doesn't mention the mooted plan of some years ago to shut it down. Or night landing in 1978. There's not much to support the airport standalone, but, as I said above, it is part of Bullfrog Basin.

        Bullfrog Basin was, despite what GNIS records may say, the USNPS's full official name for this place in actual documentation, such as for example the 1977 environmental review of where the USNPS was going to route electrical power. I haven't even put in what that says. I went for the university press books over the government sources.

        5.6 Bullfrog Basin, Glenn Canyon Recreational Area, Utah

        […]

        2) Bullfrog Basin is in the middle of the Glen Canyon Recreational Area in Utah. It enjoys sun almost daily year round, with occasional winter fog conditions.

        […]

        5) About 120,000 people visit the area annually. Accessibility is from a service road on the west side of the lake. A landing strip is also at the site.

        […]

        9) The site is occupied by several permanent personnel and their families.

Natural Bridges National Monument (N.M.), Proposed Photovoltaic Electrical System B1; Statement for Management (1978) B2; Public Workshops for Development of Management Objectives: Environmental Impact Statement. p. 29.
        This in fact tells us that the GNIS compilers were wrong to classify this as "locale" rather than "ppl". GNIS phase 1 looked at dots on maps. GNIS phase 2 was supposed to improve on that, but has botched the job. Actual history sources and documentation turn up the thing by its full name, as well as what it is.

I have no doubt this would be a G12 with phrasing like IcuTest believes that the most effective place to test is within the unit test if the software were contemporary and we could find the souce since this is copypasta. However it's copypasta that survived both speedy and PROD over the last decace, so we're here. What we don't have is any in depth sourcing about IcuTest or what it does. There are a lot of false positives due to ICU tests, but adding GUI filters it some. There are some fora and a stack exchange post, but nothing in depth or significant.

From Talk:Artem Avetisyan#Deleting:

It's strange to see an article about Artyom Avetisyan on Wikipedia. The conflict with Calvey is the only reason why he is somehow visible. Before that story, no one was interested in him. And outside of that story, no one is interested in him either. As an investor he is unremarkable, and as an entrepreneur he has not created anything significant. --5.17.89.140 (talk) 20:36, 15 February 2022 (UTC) GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 15:34, 16 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete -- no indication of notability, the sources (that I can google translate) don't seem to be talking about him specifically in any significant way. Alyo (chat·edits) 08:11, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: There is no requirement for the sources used in the English version of Wikipedia to be in English. Searches in English are unlikely to turn up sources in Russian but those used in the article seem adequate. It is important to remember that editors are encouraged to translate articles from other language versions of Wikipedia.--Ipigott (talk) 11:09, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Genuine question--which ones? A few of them are explicitly tagged as a press release/advertisement, and the remainder are just combinations of name-drops and quotes from him. Not a single one appears to have more than one sentence about him. Alyo (chat·edits) 15:08, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The Russian sources look really dodgy to me too. It's totally fine for sources to be in Russian, but I don't think we should assume these are adequate unless someone can specifically explain why we ought to. -- asilvering (talk) 18:59, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: just pointing out for anyone inclined to look for sources that his full name is "Artem Davidovich Avetisyan" if you need to disambiguate between him and someone else. I'm also only getting coverage related to Calvey, as mentioned in the nomination, but I haven't looked a) very hard or b) in Russian so I don't want to argue for deletion myself. (I was checking if there might be more coverage under alternate romanizations Artom/Artyom: doesn't look like it.) -- asilvering (talk) 19:10, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how this can possibly be called promotional either; it's about five sentences long and straightforwardly factual. The editor who tried to drop in 20k bytes of content recently openly admits to block-dodging; if that's what the nom means by "promotional", it's not in the article right now, and we can just block that editor again and move on. -- asilvering (talk) 02:24, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It's very rare to see five-digit citation counts in Google Scholar for a single work of a deletion nominee; that alone would make a strong case for WP:PROF#C1, and the high citations for many other works confirm it.
