Not a proper WP entry. Regardless of notability, WP:NOTDICTIONARY applies. gidonb (talk) 23:56, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In the interest of a better focused discussion, I have stricken through the part of the intro that sidetracked the entire discussion thus far. gidonb (talk) 11:37, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Television and Italy. gidonb (talk) 23:56, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • This may or may not be notable, but WP:NOTDICTIONARY certainly does not apply. This is about a TV series, not a word or phrase. Phil Bridger (talk) 07:20, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Stiamo bene insieme actually is a phrase in Italian, meaning "we look good together". Our dictionary article explains that this phrase is the title of an Italian tv series. È tutto: that's all it explains! gidonb (talk) 10:58, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • A TV series is not something that you would find covered in a dictionary. If you want to argue that this TV series is not notable then please do, but this is nothing like a dictionary entry. Phil Bridger (talk) 17:26, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        • What I meant is that there is nothing more here than a definition of three words: Italian tv show. If you want to call that differently, no problem. It's not about the name. It's about the principle. And, sure, this can be expanded but in its current state should not be an article. No objection to redirecting and mentioning the show elsewhere either, if it truly belongs. gidonb (talk) 03:02, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
          • Indeed it is about a principle, and it is a principle that you haven't grasped. This is a nearly substub encyclopaedia article. It doesn't define words. It tries to tell the reader about an television show, and in fact tells the reader almost nothing about it. It is from an editor who has in the past created lots of almost content-free substubs, and that has been a problem. But unless you've actually researched the sources to determine notability, you do not have a policy-based rationale for deletion. In fact "this can be expanded" is a rationale for not deleting. We keep stubs that have scope for expansion, as long as there is adequate context for identifying the subject. You want this deleted? Show that you've done the research to show that it cannot be expanded. And please familiarize yourself with what our Wikipedia is not a dictionary policy actually says, which is not your erroneous idea of what dictionary articles are. Uncle G (talk) 03:24, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I do not have a problem with stubs and with the fact that these can be expanded. My problem is with these substubs. Articles that only define what a thing is and do not provide any other information should imho not exist in Wikipedia. Dictionaries definitely can provide more detail as well but in their most concise form that's what you'd expect. I appreciate that there are people who defend dictionaries, the other data usually included, and their overall service to humanity. My problem is with these articles, not with dictionaries. I nominated two of these articles and a list that provides nothing but titles. Whatever the community decides! I received a message from the serial article creator on my talk page. gidonb (talk) 10:30, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed Uncle G, though it tries to tell the reader this is an Italian TV series with an article on Italian Wikipedia which you can help expand if you want to improve the content. That was the idea, that thousands of people collaborate and work together. Most of the content free substubs were basically transwiki placeholders to blue link missing articles which were presumed notable... ♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:13, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There are project pages for that. Creator basically confesses that he never intended to create a proper article. This is another clear indication that the article should be deleted. gidonb (talk) 18:20, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. The ONLY source in the article does not have SIGCOV per the person who placed it. gidonb (talk) 18:22, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Of course. You missed the point of why such stubs were created. They were placeholder entries really to bridge the gap between wikis. The problem was that they needed more content and sourcing... A massive number of stubs were expanded and wouldn't have been if they were project pages..
Not missing any points. Your points are about the past and the future. AfDs are about the present. This article should presently not exist. gidonb (talk) 18:45, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Notable enough for somebody to be a fan of it and upload episodes to YouTube but I can't see decent sources to write an article.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:28, 11 May 2022 (UTC),[reply]

  • Week keep Searches in Google Books on "stiamo bene insieme" rai, "stiamo bene insieme" televisione, "stiamo bene insieme" Sindoni turn up various sources that discuss the series, mostly snippets in Italian, that indicate a reasonable amount of coverage as would be expected of a series that ran to 16 episodes.

The result was soft delete. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion.

Speed Thinking

There are at least two problems with this article, tone and notability. The tone is blatantly promotional, as it has been since the article was written in 2010, and has been tagged as {{peacock}} since 2011. It was written by two single-purpose accounts, neither of whom has edited since, one of whom is either the developer of the technique or a relative of the developer of the technique. Removing the puffery would reduce the article to a stub. So the question is whether the topic is notable. Does it pass general notability? Does the article speak for itself and explain how the technique is discussed by reliable sources? The article says that the technique is valuable, but it doesn't attribute that to reliable sources. A check of the references shows that their purpose has probably been to have references because Wikipedia requires them. Four of them are about three other books on similar techniques (and Wikipedia has articles about their authors and their works), which were written before Hudson's books. Two of the references are to the author's books. One of the references has nothing to do with the subject.

Reference Number Reference Comments Independent Significant Reliable Secondary
1 www.edwdebono.com An Indonesian web site that has nothing to do with Edward DeBono. Yes No No
2 gladwellbooks.com Web site for an author who is cited in the article No No No
3 Blink, by Malcolm Gladwell A book that is mentioned in the article as a predecessor to the technique Yes Not about this topic Yes No
4 Speed Thinking, by Ken Hudson The book that describes the technique No Yes No
5 The Idea Accelerator, by Ken Hudson Another book by the author of the technique No Yes No
6 The Inner Game, by Tim Gallwey A web site about another author and their methodology Yes Not about this topic No
7 www.kenblanchard.com A web site about another author and another methodology Yes Not about this topic No

This article is about a technique. An article about either of the author's books might or might not pass book notability if it were neutral, which this article is not. This article does not establish that the technique passes general notability, and is promotion. Is there a bit bucket handy? Robert McClenon (talk) 19:45, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Paddy Pimblett[edit]

Subject is a mixed martial art fighters. Subject fails WP:NMMA for not having at least 3 fight in the top tier promotion and subject also fails GNG as all the sources except one (Guardian) (only event) are either not independent (interivew) or merely routine sport report. To pass notability guidelines, subject needs to have significant coverage by independent, reliable sources (only a few or several) where by the sources talk about the subject in depth and in detail and not only merely passing mention. BTW, there is a draft article Draft:Paddy Pimblett about the sujbect in Wikipedia and subject might be have a fight in July 23, 2022 at UFC Fight Night: Blaydes vs. Aspinall, then we will moved the to the mainspace but not until such time when the subject is notable. Pls note: popularity is not equal to notability in Wikipedia. Cassiopeia talk 23:28, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: 1st AfD Paddy Pimblett here - Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paddy Pimblett
  1. Firstly two articles by Donald McRae in the Guardian. 1 and 2. Neither of these constitute "routine coverage" in the scope of WP:GNG. One is an in depth feature on the fighter, the other a detailed report on his fight.
  2. Secondly three articles in the independent. 1, 2, 3. One of these is an in depth feature, one a match report and one an account of Pimblett's activities outside the ring.
  3. Thirdly Gazzetta dello Sport, Italy's premier sports newspaper and a Reliable Source. This has a feature on Pimblett 1 and a match preview giving significant coverage 2.
  4. Fourthly, a feature in the reliable source Fox Deportes, a Spanish-language sports website based in the US. 1
  5. Fifthly, a feature in the reliable source Fox sports, the Australian arm of fox sports. 1
  6. Sixthly a detailed match report on the BBC, not merely routine coverage. 1 and an article speculating about his next fight 2 which would fall foul of Crystal Ball, but is fine for notability.
  7. Seventhly, an article in the Irish Mirror, detailing his relationship to Ronnie O'Sullivan, while the British Daily Mirror has no consensus on reliability, I believe the Irish Mirror is considered RS. 1
  8. Eighthly(!) Skysports a detailed match report, not routine coverage.1
So very widespread coverage in RS, I would say he his more notable, in terms of WP:GNG than the majority of UfC fighters who already have pages. Boynamedsue (talk) 06:07, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I did a little mild refactoring of your comment for readability. I hope you don't mind. Dancter (talk) 08:26, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Your "keep" assessment seems to me undeniable. I hear about Paddy Pimblett very often, both online and when speaking with friends who enjoy MMA but don't follow the sport. He is especially notable and famous compared to his peers, due to his look, antics, accent, etc. Both his showmanship and enthusiastic performances garner a great amount of attention compared to other comparable fighters. What MMA media source doesn't talk about Paddy Pimblett? Even before he ever fought in a top-tier promotion, Pimblett was widely talked about in my country (America). Baz Daniels (talk) 18:56, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and histmerge previous versions as well as Draft:Paddy Pimblett. Boynamedsue is not wrong. Not only that, based on what I can ascertain, the original version discussed in the first AfD also fulfilled notability. That version of the article more than met WP:GNG from the Fighters Only and Insider profiles cited, and anyone who thought that sources like the Bloody Elbow article did not count towards establishing significant independent coverage either misunderstands WP:SIGCOV (which addresses depth, not ubiquity) and WP:IS (which addresses how sources such as MMA media having a domain-centric bias does not mean they are not independent), or has not been paying attention to the majority of accepted articles for MMA fighters on Wikipedia. Dancter (talk) 08:26, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    In principle, I agree on that. It's just that I am not personally well-versed enough in MMA websites to comment on reliability and editorial independence. That's why I limited the list to Reliable Sources at national and international level dealing with news or sports in general. Luckily there are plenty of them. Boynamedsue (talk) 11:54, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I would like to invite User:Cassiopeia to withdraw this AfD nomination. While I do not agree that the consensus among Wikipedia users is that interviews cannot establish notability, the weight of non-interview sources is overwhelming. The Guardian has already been accepted by Cassiopeia, The Independent sources number one and three are not interviews and provide significant coverage. Neither Gazzetta dello Sport article is an interview. The American Fox Deportes source is not an interview. The Australian Fox Sports is not an interview. Neither BBC source is an interview, the second contains many quotes from a press conference, but that is not an interview. The Irish Mirror source is not an interview. None of the sources constitute "routine coverage", which would mean passing mentions of Pimblett's result or box scores. Boynamedsue (talk) 06:30, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Pimblett undoubtedly fails NMMA. However there is definitely enough SIGCOV to pass GNG. ♡RAFAEL♡(talk) 18:13, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep extremely wide evidence of the subject passing WP:GNG --Angelo (talk) 00:03, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep He was a champion in Cage Warriors and he's had two fights and counting in the UFC. He signed a 7-figure contract with Barstool Sports because of the amount of hype he generates. MMA fighters who have similar records usually have Wikipedia pages and they typically don't have anywhere near the public profile that he has. Honestly, if anything, I was surprised that he didn't already have a Wikipedia page when I first saw him fight and saw all the media attention he was getting and I was wondering when he would finally get one. I think the time has come. Johnny Rose 11 (talk) 09:11, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Another RS showing significant coverage: Marca is a reliable source and Spain's most popular sports newspaper, here are three articles showing WP:SIGCOV of Pimblett. 1, 2, 3. --Boynamedsue (talk) 05:51, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi @Pavitapu,
    You're absolutely right. This page is not notable as per Wikipedia's notability guidelines. But, what I see is the chance of expanding this article based on sources suggested by Wikipedia. An article is non-notable doesn't mean it stays non-notable. FlashWikipedian (talk) 14:09, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    This is incorrect. Notability is a property of the topic, not the article. The essay WP:OVERCOME attempts to explain this: If a topic is not notable, then improving the article about it can't fix this underlying problem. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 19:22, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Great, thanks! As a new user, I still have a few questions regarding notability. Not here, but on talk pages. Notability criteria are harder to understand for a new user like me.

  • Delete @Ten Pound Hammer: I think it's totally the right decision that it should be deleted.
This is clearly not an encyclopedia article and does not fit into Wikipedia. We need to keep Wikipedia clean from these pages. This is more about free advertising for the company Hexnode at the expense of Wikipedia. Such a page has no place on Wikipedia.
It is clearly intended as a backlink source for SEO optimization of one's own Hexnode website.
This company is not notable enough to be listed in Wikipedia (WP:ORGIN).
This page is in violation with the General notability guideline of Wikipedia.
This page was created by a Marketing Employee of Hexnode. (Redacted)
Explanation:
However, to qualify for a Wikipedia page, multiple references from reliable news sources are required. (Wikipedia source assessment table.)
This is absolutely not given here.
1st reference points to a broken link.
2nd reference points to the own website. Clear reference for backlink building.
3. guide for buyers. You get listed there for a fee. It is not a reliable news source.
4. reference points to own website. Clear indication for backlink building.
5. this is a press release written by Hexnode itself plus it is an advertisement. It is not a reliable news source.

  • Delete This is a company/organization therefore NCORP guidelines apply. There are particular criteria for establishing the notability of a company. Also, unless blatantly obvious (e.g. Blog posts, no attributed journalist, Forbes contributors, etc), I'm assuming all the sources are reliable and the publishers are corporately independent from the topic organization - but there's more requirements than just "RS" for establishing notability.
  • Since the topic is a company/organization, we therefore require references that discuss the *company* in detail. As per WP:SIRS *each* reference must meet the criteria for establishing notability - the quantity of coverage is irrelevant so long as we find a minimum of two. 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. Whatever is left over must also meet CORPDEPTH.
  • This is merely the Government Ministries companies office confirmation of the company's existence. Fails CORPDEPTH
  • This from Networks Asia is a short review of 5 similar products with almost no information on the company, fails WP:CORPDEPTH
  • This Buyers Guide is not "Independent Content" as per WP:ORGIND, it simply regurgitates information from the company. The document itself says that it consolidates, organizes, and presents information from the top 20 MDM service providers so you can see what they offer and what they don’t, fails WP:ORGIND
  • This from Solutions Review is based on a Press Release (says it at the bottom) and only talks about the Buyers Guide mentioned above. Also fails NCORP criteria.
None of the references meet the criteria for establishing notability of the company. Topic therefore fails WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 16:53, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Fails WP:NALBUM quite easily, but the article creator insists on repeatedly reverting the redirect, so bringing this to AfD to gain consensus. I don't blame the article creator for not improving the article... because there are literally no independent sources with which to do so. The current sources are two social media posts, and two quotes from an WP:PRIMARY interview with members of the band, laced with some original research, about how the album was written on a bass guitar and the effects pedals that were used – the album is not even named in the interview. This does not make the album notable. The album didn't chart anywhere, and it doesn't appear to have been reviewed anywhere at all – absolutely nothing online, and I've tried checking print versions of UK music publications Mojo and Uncut and found nothing in there either. In summary, nobody apart from the band members appear to have said anything at all about this record, and I believe it should be redirected to Space (English band)#Discography. Richard3120 (talk) 19:56, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I know there isn't a great deal of research online to be found for this album, and it hasn't received any chart placings or reviews yet, but all the other Space albums have Wikipedia articles, and it would be unfair for this album to left without a page. It would feel very incomplete and not up to date in the great scheme of things.

But that's not how Wikipedia works – the notability can't be WP:INHERITED just because the artist or other albums have articles, the album needs to be independently notable. And it's been out for six months, I think if it hasn't charted or been reviewed by now, it never will be. Richard3120 (talk) 20:38, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Space (English band)#Discography, and protect against another reversion. Like the nominator, I can find no reliable reviews or other significant coverage for the album, which is unusual and probably disappointing for an established band that has some success in its past. There is simply not enough info out there for an encyclopedic article. There is no harm in redirecting because if the album turns out to be a late bloomer, a full article with robust sources can be created at that time. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:46, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

      The article notes: "Total Living, which posted close to $20 million in revenues last year, acquired a 38-acre farmland site adjacent to the Interstate 88-Orchard Road interchange in Aurora from the Aurora Christian School, which had been holding the land for a new campus and athletic fields. The studio and headquarters have been built on seven acres with frontage on the tollway, and the rest of the land is being offered for sale as part of a business park called the Vision Center. Real estate experts estimate that Total Living paid roughly $100,000 per acre for its land."

All programs produced at the center's two studios are shot with high definition technology and distributed through broadcast stations, cable casting, digital television, satellite delivery and the Internet. Cable systems across the country, including Comcast, Multimedia and Time Warner, carry the TLN channel. ... The network's programming reflects its founder's beliefs: evangelical Christianity, the validity of the Bible, the sanctity of marriage, the possibility of salvation."

  • Keep We have usually kept biographies of players who meet just one of the four WP:NCHESS criteria. Rizouk meets three of them. As one of only a handful of African chess players to be awarded the grandmaster title, he is obviously notable. Cobblet (talk) 03:08, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep. This one is directly addressed in WP:NCHESS which states: A chess player is presumed to meet the general notability guideline if they have been awarded the title of grandmaster. As Cobblet states, there are additional reasons to keep, but the GM title is more than enough all by itself. Jacona (talk) 01:07, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Dude, this blind attachment to that sentiment is destructive and unacceptable. It the same sentiment that is espoused by the train folk. Only if the article is supported by secondary sources that support WP:V, WP:BIO and WP:SIGCOV does WP:NCHESS work. That article has been updated, so it works here, but so far this week, I've seen about 80 of these articles and they are broken junk. They will be deleted or draftified if they are grandmasters. scope_creepTalk 05:08, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Is it "blind attachment to sentiment" to follow Wikipedia Policy? I don't know who the train folk you disparage are, and I haven't read the other 80 unnamed articles you mention. I have read the WP:NCHESS policy, I have read this article, and it meets NCHESS, is verifiable, and is covered by reliable sources. Also, I would ask that you not to call me pejorative names, even one that's only mildly insulting like Dude.Jacona (talk) 11:06, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Riedell competed as a sports shoter in the Olympics but he did not medal. I was unable to find any significant coverage about him. I found lots of coverage about a different William Riedell who was a hockey player this century, at the minor league and college level, he may be current, who probably is not notable but is a way more likely search than this person, and so this is not at all a good candidate for being redirected.

The scope of this article is already covered by Parallel universes in fiction. Alternative universes are just a plot devise that can be used to narrate stories and achieve certain purposes; this applies to all types of media and fanfiction is just one of them (if it's not just self-published literature). For each type of alt universe explained here, we can list many examples of works made by the original creators with the same premise. Alternative timelines, that follow canon and then diverge at a specific point? Check "What If...? (TV series)". Familiar characters placed in a whole new setting, such as Batman in the old west or Superman in the middle ages? Check "Elseworlds". Characters trapped inside a fictional story? Read examples in "Trapped in TV Land". Crossovers that mix characters and settings from unrelated publishers into a single story? Check "Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man". Material that expands the original story, but gets outdated when new proper sequels arrive? The bane of the Star Wars Expanded Universe. In short, nothing that fanfiction does with alternative universes is truly new or unseen elsewhere, and does not justify a standalone article. Cambalachero (talk) 13:42, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If these sources and others, beyond the first page when searching for ""Alternative universe" fan fiction" on Google Scholar this evening, can be added to the page, then it should be kept.

  • And which is supposed to be the unique and special thing that makes fanfic alternate universes a different thing from "mainstream" alternate universes? My point is that all those fanfic writers do with the concept, it's equally doable elsewhere by established authors. And XOR, in you analogy alternate universes would not be genres, but instruments. They are plot devises uses to narrate stories, that may belong to several genres. Like the chorus and the solo, concepts in music that can manifest in wildly different songs and genres. Cambalachero (talk) 17:32, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Another major early source is, I think, Sheenagh Pugh's The Democratic Genre, but I don't have a copy to hand and there doesn't seem to be even a contents listing online. ETA: also commonly known as "alternate universe" and very commonly just "AU", which is impossible to search for, or "A/U", as well as "alternate reality" or "AR", "alternate history", and a dozen different fandom-specific terms.

Non-notable music award. Sources are all WP:PRIMARY, and no secondary sourcing seems to exist beyond "X performed at the World Music Awards". The 2014 list does seem to have a bit more robust sourcing, but it all centers on the event that caused the ceremony to be canceled and/or is just press releases about the artists attending.

  • Keep World Music Awards, selectively merge all annual articles into the main. These are awards with decent exposure over the years that is clearly NOT sufficient for the annual articles. Only very important competitions should have annual articles! Nomination fails WP:BEFORE and WP:NEXIST, as it looks at references, not at potential sources. For example, it is true (though completely irrelevant) that all the references in the main are primary. It then suggests going from one extreme (having all these annual articles) to the other extreme (deleting the main). It would make more sense to transfer some content and references from the annual articles to the main, culminating in the right amount of references, content, and coverage for Enwiki. Although my analysis is based on the coverage, not on the situation elsewhere, still, looking across Wikipedia: 29 WPs have the main, only 4 have (some) of the annual articles.gidonb (talk) 03:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's entertainment. The people who host, sing, win, editions that get canceled for Corona, that's a huge part of the operations and the most interesting for the press. I would not watch it unless I get paid. Not the the Emmys or Oscars either, and definitely not pageants or wrestling shows. I do not have a tv at home. Well, I do have the screen so I can watch a movie once in a while and I zap a bit in hotels.

I'm not going off WP:IDONTLIKEIT. I'm going off WP:GNG which says,

WP:NOTNEWS only applies to the annual articles. World Music Awards takes the long view of the awards and events. It will do so even more if my suggestions are followed. You do not have to like this kind of entertainment to support keeping the main. In any case, it's not my kind of entertainment. gidonb (talk) 12:20, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If literally 100% of the coverage of the event focuses on the 2014 incarnation, that does not automatically make the rest of the ceremonies notable on their own. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 14:45, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed and that's a perfect argument for my position: the annual events are not notable enough for their own articles and we should only take the long view with the SIGCOV that we have. gidonb (talk) 22:51, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a 'thing' in any conceivable sense. It is a conceptual entity at best, it is not sufficiently definite to be the subject of an encyclopedic article. Ari T. Benchaim (talk) 14:25, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your feedback. The European public sphere is not as inconceivable as many other articles that have already been published on this platform. It designates a political science concept, that has been heavily documented in scientific literature as well as reports from European institutions. It is very well defined as indicated in the various and numerous sources I put at the end of my article. The European public sphere tackles issues related to media, European elections, the Conference on the future of Europe and a space that is designed for European citizens to exchange views. I firmly believe that this article would be helpful for everyone to have a better grasp of what a European public sphere means. Antoine Ichas (talk) 14:04, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It has been in Herford all along. Shhh!
  • And yet it is the subject of an encyclopaedia article. Per ISBN 9781527548749 they're still looking for it, though. Or were in 2019, an important year according to the book's introduction. ISBN 9781785360916 talks about how to make one (in case one wants to roll one's own, presumably). ISBN 9781107081659 has more than one. I pity the person who tries to wikify this content. It has its own idiosyncratic referencing system involving the creator's own userspace. For that alone, I think that this should not be in the main article namespace. This is a draft that is as it stands too hard for others to collaboratively write on.

Thank you for your feedback. However, the European public sphere is not something to look for, something that can be found. As I stated in my article, it is a process that can take different forms and may very well never happen. It is as concrete as regular public spheres, only not formed yet, or rather formed only during brief moments or on certain platforms. Helping European citizens understand what it is, is highly significant for them to appropriate the European debates for themselves in order to be involved in the coming years, especially with the next European elections. Wikifying this content may be complicated, and perhaps reserved for political scientists, but I believe that many parts of my article can be extended without broad knowledge (such as on the topic of social protests, add a section on the Conference on the future of Europe, the role of mass media in political debate at the European level...). As such, I don't believe that this draft is too hard for other users to work on. Considering the referencing system, I will try my best to conform it to Wikipedia's rules and take inspiration from other articles. Antoine Ichas (talk) 14:10, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The very little information about the sequels in the franchise article could be added to Megamind: Ultimate Showdown as a paragraph on future at the end to consolidate the articles? Indagate (talk) 16:07, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The other two games don't seem individually notable but are better off mentioned in the franchise article than that of the unrelated 360/PS3 game... which is one of the reasons why this article should probably exist. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 16:09, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    There's very little for them at the franchise article, don't think should have that article just for that information Megamind_(franchise)#Video_games. They were released in same year and part of same franchise as Megamind: Ultimate Showdown so think fine to include them as a section in that article. Indagate (talk) 16:15, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Doesn't need to be split because the article isn't long enough, notability doesn't matter in this case, there isn't a need for a split so it creates unnecessary duplication of information Indagate (talk) 13:37, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep or worst case merge. "Franchise" is almost always a silly word to me, but this is clearly a "series" of some kind. Most series do eventually end up having their own page, and worst case the information about sequels can be included at the end of the previous entries. Shooterwalker (talk) 14:45, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep, I don't see any major benefit for merging everything. I do agree that calling it series is more accurate than a franchise, but there are multiple notable things that are part of the series. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 14:59, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Not a series either though, it's a movie with a potential TV series, soundtrack, non-notable short film (recent AfD result merge), two arguably notable games, and one non-notable game. Having multiple related notable things doesn't mean there should be a parent article for them, no other information to add. See guideline WP:REDUNDANTFORK.

Mostly unreferenced TVtropic listcruft (tagged with refimprove since 2008, and already during AfD 13 years ago called "just a cluttered trivial dumping ground."). Not linked from anywhere except as a see also or part of Steinbeck's navigational template. Fails - take your pick - a myriad of policies, guidelines and like: as an 'in popular culture' article, WP:IPC and MOS:POPCULT/TRIVIA, as a list, WP:NLIST and WP:SALAT, as a potential topic, WP:GNG and WP:INDISCRIMINATE, due to lack of references, WP:OR, WP:V. As someone interested in history of literature, I'll say that it is an interesting list of trivia (well, mosty, I can't find any redeaming value in stuff like "In Cookie Clicker, there is an achievement named "of mice and men" obtained by purchasing 100 cursors.") , but sadly, it's not encyclopedic. To anyone who wants to argue this has some value, please read the above policies, and note that Scholar query shows dozens of academic article using the title of the novel as puns (ex. "The best laid plans of mice and men: the computer mouse in the history of computing", "Of Mice and Men: Animals in Human Culture", "The Best Laid Plans of Mice and Men: Official Narratives and American Meaning-Making in World War II", "Of mice and men: hybridoma and recombinant antibodies"). Would you like to see a new section 'in scholarly works' listing all times someone decided to include the pun based on this novel in the title of their paper? :P That said, it's possible this is a notable topic (ex. [2]), but WP:TNT applies; as past and current experience has shown, any rewrite of this would have to start from scratch anyway. In the case someone would try to do so, we should start by writing a properly referenced section in the main article before splitting stuff up.

It was Burns who wrote a poem that mentions "the best laid plans of mice and men" over 100 years before Steinbeck.

Nominating for deletion after coming across it during routine clean-up tasks. There are no reliable, independent sources found for this topic that meet the notability standard at WP:N. While not policy, I have considered the essay at WP:NVIDEOGAMES and find it persuasive and logical. There it is stated a "video game is appropriate for an article if it has been the subject of significant commentary or analysis in published sources independent of the developer". I agree with this, and as there are no such sources for this video game, the article covering it is not fit for inclusion on Wikipedia and should be deleted.

  • Weakish Keep This one is tough. It's an older game. Metacritic generally doesn't have games before around 2002, and Gamerankings shutdown. I found a spreadsheet someone saved of all GR scores prior to shutdown, and it wasn't even listed. Here's the kicker: It was "Adventure Island 3" for NES but "Adventure Island II: Aliens in Paradise" in EU for it's GB port. Neither is in GR. Moby however does have a list of critic reviews, and they are not all unreliable. My weak keep is based on the existence of these reviews: NintendoLife, EGM (Feb, 1993, print review), Hardcore Gaming 101, Video Games (Dec, 1993, print review), GamePro (US, Aug, 1992, print review), Play Time (May, 1993, print review), Total! (Germany, Jun, 1993, print review). Some more of the reviews at Moby may be reliable, but I know the ones I've denoted are reliable print publications or websites vetted at WP:VG/RS. I don't at all fault the nominator for missing this, searching for this game is difficult due to age and the odd English naming of the GB port. MobyGames itself is deemed unreliable, but it's list of reviews is often useful for finding reliable sources. -- ferret (talk) 13:41, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A short-lived club for which we have some match reports but nothing actually establishing notability. Fram (talk) 08:53, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It is why they are notable - there were so few clubs in 1868 (the FA membership was barely a dozen) that South Park FC was, in essence, of the same stature as a current League team. Including a short-lived club like South Park shows the development of the game and the evanescence of some early clubs. Plus it might stimulate research into any further influence on the game. In Vitrio (talk) 09:00, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@In Vitrio: As the creator, you will of course feel more defensive, however I am unsure if the comment "South Park FC was, in essence, of the same stature as a current League team", is anywhere close to valid. I take the point (to an extent) that early clubs may deserve some recognition, although not if there is little to no significant coverage of them. Your comment sounds a bit like you like the idea of them having an article but without being able to demonstrate that they actually were notable at the time. Bungle (talk • contribs) 19:34, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is important to trace the development of the game in the pre-FA Cup days, when the code nearly died out, to show that there were teams bubbling up from the quantum foam of the unorganized sport. Given the size of the membership, South Park must have been active with games between members; that it had few external games is a reflection of the club's youth. There could be a false impression if it is restricted to survivors who, a fortiori, are going to be notable for their age if nothing else.
They were at least notable enough to warrant reports in the national press - their games are covered in Bell's Life, The Field, and The Sportsman. There are numerous other clubs from the era who did not reach that standard (to pick two examples, the Holt club and London Scottish Rifles), so the club was not part of the amorphous mass of anonymity.

GiantSnowman 18:18, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    That would be original research. But what are the notability criteria? This club had more than one match reported in more than one national newspaper, that instantly puts them above pretty much every non-league team... In Vitrio (talk) 23:25, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    "more than one national newspaper"? Only "The Sportsman" is quoted, which other newspaper would that be? According to this, this weekly "newspaper" had a circulation in the hundreds before 1874, making it more like a fanzine and less a "national newspaper" anyway. Fram (talk) 08:16, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    As I said above, Bell's Life and The Field. They also made the Alcock annual. The national newspapers were not interested in football much in the 1860s, a quick search at the Times archive doesn't have any hits even for the Wanderers. Does every source have to be quoted?

  • Delete - Wikipedia's general notability guideline requires a subject to be notable to warrant inclusion. To demonstrate this notability, it needs to be sourced by 'multiple reliable sources, independent of the subject.

  • Comment. South Park, Ilford is a possible merge target, but I'm not entirely convinced that this is the same South Park as where the club played. It was not officially a park until 1902, but the club was formed in 1867. It's article says it was previously farmland, but I have a source (which I will soon add to the article) which clearly shows it was being used for purposes other than farming at around the right time period (but not explicitly football).

This is a difficult title to search, but there seem to be no obvious, relevant GNews results, and considering its very short run (<2 months) I'm convinced that it likely fails WP:GNG. Only source is a book which I cannot check. This is a 1998 TV series that aired on The WB; it has no relation to the 2012 CBS show also titled 3. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 07:31, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Jiroe Meets the notability criteria for people as stated here:
  1. The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series);
He Produced and Mixed the record "Dry" by Rancid Eddie which charted number 2 on ARIA Charts (here), Number 4 on New Zealand charts (here). Such work was talked about on multiple sources such as EarMilk (here), Billboard ("Hottest Release of the Week"), Michigan Daily (Here). I can keep mentioning. The song Dry which he produced and mixed has over 13 million plays on Spotify ([8], credits mentioning Jiroe on the same page (right click on the song and click on Credits, only way to see them).
Jiroe does Meet the notability criteria for musicians as stated here:
  1. Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself
  2. Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart.
Once again, He Produced and Mixed the record "Dry" by Rancid Eddie which charted number 2 on ARIA Charts (here), Number 4 on New Zealand charts (here). Such work was talked about on multiple sources such as EarMilk (here), Billboard ("Hottest Release of the Week"), Michigan Daily (Here). I can keep mentioning. The song Dry which he produced and mixed has over 13 million plays on Spotify ([9], credits mentioning Jiroe on the same page (right click on the song and click on Credits, only way to see them).
He also Produced and Mixed "Beautiful Life" by Cobra Starship, which has been covered by multiple reliable sources such as: Paper Magazine (Here), Broadway World (here).

If you read every single citation in the page I create you will realize Jiroe meets and surpasses the criteria for Record Producer. Stop bullying every one of my moves on Wikipedia @Sean Stephens TubbyDubby (talk) 10:14, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
TubbyDubby, I'm not bullying you, I have valid and reasonable concerns about the content you've added or are adding to Wikipedia, the chief one being that this article doesn't match the aforementioned criteria. Discogs and IMDb, both used as sources in the article, are not considered to be reliable sources. I will also note that the notability criteria for people, which you yourself cite, states that such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews (which he hasn't) and that this work could be, for example, a book, film, or television series—this particular guideline does not refer to contributions to songs or albums. Due to this, he would be considered an example of someone who's only notable for one event, as he hasn't achieved sustained coverage. No sources to indicate notability are given in the article, and, at this current point in time, no such sources appear likely to be found. I have raised issues with you previously, and you've failed to listen and/or engage with me. Please keep the discussion on the topic at hand. Sean Stephens (talk) 13:22, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Discogs and IMDb are used as source for credits, spotify can be used. They are not used as "media". The media citations are indirect citation, the producer's work (the songs) are being are being subject of multiple independent articles or reviews. His name is not mentioned directly, but the most recent work he has done (Dry and Beautiful Life) are indeed mentioned. Just because the name of the producer is not mentioned it does not mean the record producer is not notable. The songs exist in that form and arrangement because of the record producer and therefor every media article related to the song is a media article about the producer's work, wether or not the producer is mentioned there. TubbyDubby (talk) 15:36, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: TubbyDubby, all those sources just prove that the songs are notable, not the producer. Not one of them mentions Jiroe by name. So he hasn't been the subject of multiple published works (the songs have), and he personally has not had a single on a national chart (the singer has). You would have to prove that as producer he played a major role in creating the songs, and the fact he isn't mentioned in any of the sources doesn't provide much evidence that he meets this criterion. Richard3120 (talk) 13:58, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Yup, exactly this. Better sources are needed, especially for a WP:BLP. Sergecross73 msg me 14:05, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Look at the category American Record Producer, the vast majority of record producers have indirect references, which is valid. The record producer is responsible for the song, if you are saying the songs are notable but the producer is not, then you are just not understanding what a record producer is and what its role is. I don't have time today but I'll add other citations to the page which mention that particular producer directly. TubbyDubby (talk) 15:32, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I've been writing about modern music for the last decade. As has Richard, I believe. We know the role of a music producer, so please please don't cast aspersions on that matter. While you're at it, you may want to read up on WP:OSE and WP:NOTINHERITED, as those concepts counter much of the rest of what you're saying. Sergecross73 msg me 15:49, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. There is some merit to either side of the debate. The point about the article passing WP:GNG is certainly relevant. The point about the article violating WP:NOTPLOT has some merit, since the plot section does dominate the article. However, it is not a given that something that can be resolved by regular editing mechanisms mandates deletion of the entire article. Sjakkalle (Check!) 20:25, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep – here's a review by Digital Spy, and there might be one or two other solid reviews floating out there. Also, I fail to see why two reviews in reliable outlets are not considered sufficient. The vast majority of television episodes don't even reach two reviews, so this episode should be deemed notable.

      • Reviews clearly fall into the reception category you mentioned above, as long as they provide their own analysis and commentary about the episode (which the provided sources do, except for maybe the Eugene Weekly link) and aren't just simple recaps (which they aren't).

      I would write the article if I was familiar with the show, but I tend to only write about a topic if I'm familiar with it (it's hard to explain something for someone else if you don't understand it yourself). But as has been laid out before, the two existing reviews (and the Digital Spy source linked above) contain analysis and commentary that goes beyond what is explicitly laid out in the plot. Our plot guidelines emphasize that all plot points must be clearly shown in the episode to be included in the plot summary (see MOS:TVPLOT: Any content that is analytical, interpretive or evaluative should not be in the plot summary...), so if the analysis goes beyond those directly shown details – which these sources do – the reviews are no longer solely based in plot, and therefore NOTPLOT is no longer a concern, in my view. RunningTiger123 (talk) 23:33, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG and WP:PROF. The page has a lot of minutiae that don't add up to notability. As to WP:GNG, I don't see multiple meaningful references in reliable sources. As to WP:PROF, I don't see the 8 criteria under WP:NACADEMIC being met -- per that page, "When judged against the average impact of a researcher in a given field, does this researcher stand out as clearly more notable or more accomplished?" Dr. Jewitt has quite a long list of activities (from ESL teacher to prison educator) but no indication that any of the awards are particularly meaningful (e.g., nominated for an "Inspire Women" award but did not win; nominated as "one to watch" in a book that does not seem to be a reliable source; etc) or that she has had an outsized impact in her field.

    The production section is unsourced trivia; the critical reception is three sentences long, telling us only how many viewers the episode receives, and the score two reviewers gave the episode.

      • If there is a section discussing notable reviews of the episode, then the episode is no longer a "summary-only description" (i.e., it is more than just a plot summary), and therefore NOTPLOT is irrelevant. (I think part of the problem is that the current plot summary is too long, leading the plot section to dominate the article, but that's completely separate from the article's notability.) RunningTiger123 (talk) 12:25, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        • The section discussing reviews of the episode consists of On the episode's original airdate, Heroes attracted 16.97 million viewers. Sean O'Neal of The A.V. Club gave the episode a B. Robert Canning of IGN scored the episode 7.8 out of 10. This doesn't bring the article beyond a summary-only description of the work. BilledMammal (talk) 12:54, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
          • But there are more details in the sources that could be used to expand the section; within the article, each review could (and should) have a few sentences summarizing its main points of commentary.

Clearly, it's not a GA-level article, but that's not the standard at AfD. The reviews added by Dream Focus and others referenced above by RunningTiger show that this can be further developed.

There are opportunities to flesh out the list into prose, describing crowd sizes, demonstration locations, organizing groups, etc. Additionally, there was violence in LA and arrests in multiple cities. More protests are being planned, including by Women's March. There's enough content and detail to create an entry similar to Impeachment March, Not My Presidents Day, etc. ---Another Believer (Talk) 13:54, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Argubly, this is great content for Wikinews, not Wikipedia, due to the question of whether these protests gave legs or not. Wikinewd is great for coverage of breaking events without worrying about long term influence, but here on WP, NEVENT must be met. --Masem (t) 16:11, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support protest are inevitable in an issue controversial such as this.

  • Draftify In agreement with others here. Too soon to know if these protests will have lasting notability, especially given that pro- and anti-abortion demonstrations happen all the time with varying levels of media coverage in response.

  • Rename/keep I think just with the large continuous level of reporting about the current and upcoming protests it would be good to keep it as an article, as there have been other Wikipedia articles listing protests such as for BLM. Additional information is being added for each protest, and potentially the article could be renamed for a Response to the leaked draft only, as multiple news anchors, politicians and lawyers have weighed in about the leaking of the draft, implications of the draft, reaction laws to the potential reversal etc.Leaky.Solar (talk) 19:57, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: When nominator says "A lot of things receive national-level protests, but they don't have their only articles" it is unclear what those "things" are and why a major protest that has received more than significant coverage in a multiple number of reliable, independent sources doesn't rise to the level of having it's "only article" whatever that means.

  • Keep but I'd say the page should be presented as a stand-alone list for now instead of a full-fledged article; these protests are clearly receiving significant national coverage but at the same time there really isn't much to this page other than documenting the places where the protests happened. — Coolperson177 (t|c) 12:30, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I tend to think Wikipedia shouldn't rush to cover current events, and err on the side of not assuming something will receive lasting coverage when it's unclear. This matters more for some kinds of events (crimes, for example) than others. In this case, it's so obvious that it will receive sustained coverage that it's a clear keep for me, even if yes, perhaps we should've waited a little longer. Rename it though, because the name makes it sound like it's a list of anti-abortion protests. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 14:32, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I had created the page at 2022 abortion rights protests in the United States, but another editor moved to the current title, presumably because there are both pro-choice and pro-life demonstrations. Open to other page titles, of course, but that's a discussion for the article's talk page. ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:53, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah, that was a bad move. The protests are over abortion rights (for or against). If moves during AfD weren't messy, I'd just move it back now, but that should definitely happen when the AfD is closed (if it's kept), and send the proposed move to the talk page. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:06, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm confident the page will be kept, so feel free to start an informal rename discussion on the article's Talk page if you think that's helpful to do ahead of a formal or manual move. ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:09, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Not necessary. We can undo a bad bold move after it closes, and then that person can start a move request if they so choose. That said, although the current title seems completely ill conceived and unlikely to find support, it would be worth considering "reproductive rights", too, since some of the conversation has broadened, too. FWIW. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:12, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    FWIW - yes - agree - seems a better article name may be worth considering - several possible names (at least for starters):

    "2022 demonstrations for women's rights in the United States"

  • Merge to the Dobbs article, or to a future article about the Politico leak if eventually a decision on the Dobbs article to split that off. I don't see a reason why all of them should be sorted by year, when some protests are held annually and some will be following the eventual ruling. This isn't the way the past abortion protest related article have been set up.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 19:28, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep - I note that the delete !votes citing recentism and not news(PAPER!) are misapplied. Those policies are meant to apply to trivia such as who Kim Kardashian is currently dating, or what was the weather report in Tucumcarrey. Not to apply to events of such historical magnitude as this (which it is on its face - a human right that's been constitutionally protected by law for 50 years - the long term enduring coverage and notoriety of this doesn't require a crystal ball!) And, lastly...and please understand this is not a personal attack against anyone of any kind, but a mere statement of facts. Facts that would be irrelevant for most encyclopaedia topics, but for this one I think cannot go unaddressed. I think it is uncontroversial to guess that the question of notability of this topic would yield drastically different results amongst males vs amonngst females, no? And none of us is truly capabke of being purely removed from our personal biases. It is well known that editors here are > 90% male. Knowing that the overwhelming proportion of the effect of this issue is on women, and Knowing that women are severely underrepresented amongst the editors here, is this not effectively the notability of a women's topic being decided exclusively by men? And if all the aforesaid premises are true, AND are taken into consideration, and the notability is still deemed insufficient...is that not basically male Wikipedia editors declaring that the opinions of women don't matter, or that women are not fit to have a voice on matters that concern them? I am sorry for getting soap boxy, here, and I will stress again that I assume NO bad faith at all. I know none of the !delete voters had likely considered this, and that is not to be held against anyone. I would urge all to whom it concerns to consider these points, though.

  • Weak Keep I don't think just the protests alone are notable enough for their own article, although the broader reactions to the draft opinion leak definitely are. I think the article should be expanded to include other reactions to the leak, which have received widespread news coverage all week. Renaming the article to something like "Reactions to the Dobbs v. Jackson leaked draft opinion" might also be better. Blocod (talk) 13:58, 8 May 2022 (UTC) On second thought there is more than enough coverage of solely the protests to meet notability standards.

  • Strong keep. Well sourced and notable. ɱ (talk) 16:14, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Keep for now. I would say if the protests last for 14 days and (stresses as a requirement) if anything else significant/worthy occurs it is worth keeping.
    I think what harms the article the most is that it has not got enough information at this state, and it is very hap-hazardly formatted and therefore does not look equivalent to other well written articles similar to this: basically it is undercooked and therefore looks like shit/garbage compared to something like the George Floyd Protests article. May put my hand at fixing it tomorrow if I have time.
    If this was to be better synthesised/assorted, I would suggest having (something along the lines of) a "part of 2021-2022 abortion rights in the us" thing, because there has been significant enough change in abortion law around this time period; and when/if this is done we can do an article on the leaked supreme court draft itself, and then responses to the draft (which this would fall under). This would not work as a merge yet as there have been too little responses to it, and because redirecting it to anything else feels like its just shoving it in there with hard-to-discern or not great, correlation.
    Then on that note it also feels like there should be an article series on abortion, or abortion rights (and/or then on abortion in the us, which I think there is plenty to make an article series on. )
    (ask me to elaborate further on my talk page not here on why id do it)
    TL:DR: keep for now because we dont know how it will develop yet; but i do think significant re/organisation is needed for the protests and the general topic. Chchcheckit (talk) 21:58, 8 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This is only the first week of a year-long protest that will undoubtedly be the biggest influence on the midterm election in November 2022. I can't believe some of the comments here from editors who don't think this is an impactful event. These comments remind me after George FLoyd was murdered how some editors thought the killing was no big deal and a local event that shouldn't even be covered on Wikipedia. I agree that Wikipedia is not a newspaper but the cluelessness displayed here just demonstrates to me again how much of the editorship here is disconnected from subjects that directly concern the lives of women. This AFD discussion might lead to the deletion of this particular article but articles on this subject will exist in the future because the subject is incredibly notable and easily well-referenced since every news organization in the United States is covering this topic. Liz Read! Talk! 02:04, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep The outcome of Dobbs v. Jackson, judging upon the leak from the US Supreme Court, will be felt by many for decades to come. Not only is it attacking abortion rights, the leaked judgement also is calling into question the cases that established gay marriage (Obergefell v Hodges) and homosexuality (Lawrence v Texas), per The Human Rights Campaign. I agree completely with @Liz: that this will be one of the major US political events of this year, and will unquestionably have an impact upon the midterm elections. I would also suggest that perhaps all those who have supported Merge that they review the state of the article now, versus both when it was nominated for deletion, and when they made their comment. At the point at which it was nominated, the article content was 10,378 bytes. As of the time I'm writing this message it is now 113,181 bytes, and so may be well outside the territory where a merge is even feasible. Sideswipe9th (talk) 02:30, 9 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Non notable dietatian with minor passing mentions and interviews in some references. I did a WP:BEFORE search but nothing better was found. Some positions mentioned in the article are also non notable positions or non-notable organizations. Some claims couldn't be verified also. Nanpofira (talk) 07:33, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The references you have added are all self promotional materials which do not contribute to notability. Please see WP:SPIP. I have removed those references as those aren't reliable. Please see WP:SPONSORED. Nanpofira (talk) 08:02, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@JoyStick101:, would you be kind enough to show wherefrom you came to know that she is an author of NCERT books? I couldn't find any references that satisfy such claims. - Nanpofira (talk) 08:06, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please select WP:THREE best sources that you think cover the subject in depth? I'm asking you since you are the author and know the area best. As it stands, I agree with Oaktree b that the coverage isn't the kind suitable for an article here. Hemantha (talk) 06:48, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep After a close look of all the references and as per WP:HEY, the subject passes WP:GNG and WP:NAUTHOR. Most of the references seem significant and independent of the subject. DMySon (talk) 08:59, 27 April 2022 (UTC) Sock strike[reply]
  • Delete - There are two articles that could be considered significant - IBTimes and Daily Pioneer. WP:IBTIMES is considered unreliable. Both the articles are highly flattering ("A multi faceted person", "renowned dietitian" etc) and are mostly made up of quotes; thus neither appears independent. Search hits are quotes or PR content. Hemantha (talk) 10:59, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Source Analysis:
1 - Hindustan Times considered a reliable resource as per concensus. It is independent of the subject published in secondary source and meets WP:SIGCOV.
:2- Times of India article written independently by on a generic topic generally consider reliable as per discussion and it is used as reference on millions of Wiki articles.
:3 - Zee News: An independently written article by an editor Ritika Handoo. She writes about fashion, lifestyle and health. Normally considered as reliable reference used on many articles.
:4 - Another reliable reference is from NDTV independently written by Aradhana Singh who regularly writes articles on health, fitness and Foods. Passes WP:SIGCOV.
:5 - Fit India Movement website, an Indian Government entity generally consder reliable as per consensus. This is a list of Fit India Movement ambassadors. Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Neutral point of view passes WP:LISTBIO as per WP:TRIVIA and WP:SOURCELIST.
:6 - International Business Times, Independently written by Chris David. The website used as reference on many Wikipedia articles. Passes WP:SIGCOV.
:7 - Outlook (Indian magazine) a reliable resource, an article which is independent of the subject written by Sneha Kanchan. Passes WP:SIGCOV.
: The above references are enough to passes WP:THREE. DMySon (talk) 05:14, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  1. HT - two quotes in a recipe article
  2. ToI - quote in pure churnalist article
  3. Zee News - straight away says interview. Please review WP:BASIC which says primary sources (which interview are) don't count towards notability.
  4. NDTV - a listicle of five foods suggested by the subject. Has nothing on the subject herself.
  5. FitIndia - a simple list of people
  6. IBT - already said in my vote that it's unreliable and extremely promotional.
  7. Outlook - again only quotes; hence primary and doesn't count towards notability.
Not a single one of the above is even barely WP:SIRS. You've simply dumped a list once more without engaging in any of the points raised in previous comments. Hemantha (talk) 15:42, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Given the socking surrounding JoyStick101 and DMySon, would like more uninvolved input.

  • Delete - due to the following:
1. Insufficient coverage. No sources found in books. Turning to news sources, I am not satisfied these meet the standards of significant coverage as the articles do not address the subject directly and in detail. These articles merely describe the nutrition advice given by the subject and I find this to be trivial mention of the subject, the focus of the material is actually on the nutritional advice.
2. Even if (which I do not believe) the sources could be reliable, they cover nutritional advice given by this person only. So the articles focus on a single context. Other than the advice given in these articles, the subject is likely to remain a low-profile individual and so a biographical article on this individual is not really appropriate for an encyclopaedia.
3. I really find the news sources available are not a valid route to inclusion on Wikipedia, the real test of notability is whether anyone independent of this topic has or even could publish non-trivial works of their own and I do not consider this the case.
4. Wikipedia is not a place for ones resume, or to advertise or promote. This article really reads like a resume in essay style, appears self-promotional (although I have no evidence this was written by the subject so happy to just say promotional instead).

So for these reasons, I think there is a strong cause for deletion. I do not normally go into such detail on AFD, and I do apologise in advance if anyone thinks what I have written is Wikilawyering. I do trawl through AFD looking for cases that need an extra consideration before closure. I see this one was re-listed for further consideration and so read through a few policies to truly establish whether this article warrants inclusion. On balance, I feel it does not and it ought to be deleted. - Such-change47 (talk) 08:23, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the source analysis as above. Many sources, few if any help to establish notability. Oaktree b (talk) 19:52, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The notability here is questionable. WP:GNG and WP:BIO seem to militate generally against considering him to be adequately covered by reliable secondary sources. Ari T. Benchaim (talk) 00:14, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Most of the sources are suspect, although Newsweed, tee hee. I don't see notability. Oaktree b (talk) 00:42, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Agreed that the sources are not necessarily reliable, Are his books at all biographical? Otherwise, no notability Uncanniey (talk) 01:14, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The Vice News sources seem to be WP:ROUTINE and WP:NOTNEWS, while many of the other sources seem to be WP:ROUTINE and WP:PRIMARY and do not themselves establish notability of the subject.—Mythdon (talk • contribs) 01:48, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Meets WP:SIGCOV. He is covered by the Boulder Weekly, Vice News, and many others that were not cited in the article. Hudson also created the Marijuana Games. Sendero99 (talk) 06:18, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • People cannot read your mind. Please cite these uncited sources and tell everyone else what they are. Presumably you are excluding the Vice articles that are cited on the (correct) grounds that the first is an interview in the first person and thus autobiography and the second is by the subject rather than about the subject. Uncle G (talk) 07:22, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Authors, and Massachusetts. CAPTAIN RAJU(T) 03:24, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Having reviewed the sources listed they do not appear to constitute sig-cov and hence notability is not established, warranting deletion - Such-change47 (talk) 08:04, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
