2022 Kremlin speech of Vladimir Putin[edit]

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

What information there is here can be included in Annexation of Southern and Eastern Ukraine#Four regions speech of Vladimir Putin or elsewhere. If that article subsection gets filled out a bit more, I would wholeheartedly support a move to a different article - but there isn't much here at the moment. – QueenofBithynia (talk) 21:50, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Annexation of Southern and Eastern Ukraine#Four regions speech of Vladimir Putin; better covered in context, and the target article isn't terribly long. That said, this almost certainly passes the 10-year test, so I agree that if the main article becomes too plump it can be split back out by consensus. Ovinus (talk) 22:58, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Re Liz: Since this discussion began, the target article was indeed redirected to Annexation of southeastern Ukraine by the Russian Federation, so I'd merge it into the same section there. Ovinus (talk) 20:14, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per above. Reywas92^Talk 14:03, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral, as the original creator of the article. I think this article has gathered enough independent media coverage for being a standalone article, as many news article covered the speech in itself. However, I also understand the sentiment behind others as the annexation article isn't very long. The Account 2 (talk) 16:13, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for understanding. I agree that there has been enough coverage of the speech to warrant a standalone article at some point, but I think that for the time being it should be merged and expanded in the main article before becoming a WP:SPINOFF. – QueenofBithynia (talk) 13:34, 8 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I looked in the Swedish newspaper archives, and Lagoona were repeatedly hailed as pioneers, a phenomenon and the first Swedish band to truly make it online. They dominated the downloads in the late 90s. There's a row of longer articles about them, both in the dominating newspapers in northern Sweden (where they lived) but also in other parts of the country, with sustained interest over time; this was more than a local band. I've added a number of sources to the article. /Julle (talk) 00:24, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ping Fifthapril and Yüsiacı – I've added sources now. They are not openly available online, but anyone with access to sv:Mediearkivet (e.g. basically anyone connected to a Swedish university, or Swedish-speaking Wikimedians who have an account through Wikimedia Sweden) can access them. /Julle (talk) 00:27, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The band does seem to have had an influence on both modern Swedish music and its delivery. The reference problem is not completely solved, but that alone is not reason, at this point, to delete. They appear to have notability. --Bejnar (talk) 20:24, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There's still plenty work left to do in the article, which wasn't solved just because I added references to key statements, but I think we have sources that prove notability, i.e. – as you say – the topic of the AfD conversation. (: /Julle (talk) 20:29, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Un rêve au coin du feu[edit]

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

I cannot find any reviews or mentions that would make this film pass WP:NFILM. Just because a film is old, doesn't make it inherently notable. If there are citations that would help this pass notability, please help identify them. Otherwise, this article should be deleted.

Delete or redirect to Émile Reynaud#Filmography. There are lots of sources that list all five of Reynaud's films, including this one, so the film title gets lots of Google hits, but I don't see any significant coverage. The only exception I found is this journal article (pp. 196–197), which gives a few facts (exhibited 1984–87, 400 drawings, 12 mins) and then gives a detailed plot summary, but this isn't enough to establish notability.

Wooster Square, Danbury[edit]

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

This is an intersection in a historic district. Not independently notable. I redirected this once to the district article, but was reverted. Nothing here warrants a stand-alone article. MB 17:59, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Connecticut-related deletion discussions. MB 17:59, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: @MB: Thank you for your feedback. Although a characteristic of this section of the city, Wooster Square is not merely "an intersection in a historic district." It holds much more historic significance to the City of Danbury than just that. I understand the article is not complete however, I do not believe it should be deleted prematurely. It will be beneficial to move the article to draftspace while in the development process. CityLimitsJunction (talk). 18:33, 29 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Move to Draft is one of the wp:AFDSTATS-listed outcomes, and is appropriate as an alternative to outright deletion here. Let the article's developer, User:CityLimitsJunction, a new editor, keep trying, with suggestion/requirement they should not themself move it back to mainspace. They may choose themself to merge the material. Or if/when they think it is ready, find someone else to decide and move it if they agree. Or, better, submit it for review by AFC editors in the wp:AFC process (which is good about providing feedback). --Doncram (talk) 20:59, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I had already merged this into the district article. The photos are all there. There is only one new sentence that was added to this article that is not currently in the district article. So I don't think Merge is appropriate. If the author want to work on this further as a draft, they should just copy this and start a draft. I'm not sure that it will ever be enough to warrant a separate article. Redirecting keeps the redirect to the existing content in the district article should the draft never be expanded and accepted. MB 21:06, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If the material is there, then the merger would not have much work to do, and basically would function as a redirect, which would also be fine if the above is true. Djflem (talk) 17:22, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article PRODded with reason "Non-notable journal, tagged for notability since 2014. Not indexed in any selective databases, no in-depth independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals".

Please stop flagging this article for notability and deletion. Per academic journal notability criteria (only ONE of which must be true):

Criterion 1: The journal is considered by reliable sources to be influential in its subject area.

> Several references added explicitly stating JSS is an important journal in the subject area

> Inclusion in SafetyLit index, which is selective for the safety subject area

> SCOPUS indexing is not a requirement for notability, and there are many other Wiki articles for non-SCOPUS journals.

Criterion 2: The journal is frequently cited by other reliable sources.

> Citation info is difficult to track without full indexing, but per Google Scholar search, at least 55 SCOPUS-indexed journals have cited JSS in the last 20 years, even when JSS was not indexed in SCOPUS.

> Numerous books and standards cite JSS and JSS articles (a few references were added)

Criterion 3: The journal is historically important in its subject area.

> Included reference to Nancy Leveson safety case paper which has had broad and lasting historical impact.

Merge to International System Safety Society. I don't see the journal as being independent of it, especially because of its lack of indexing. Being cited in other journals is nice, but it is also routine. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 07:58, 30 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Independence is not one of the three notability criteria. Frequent citation is a criterion. See below (emphasis added)

2.b) The only reasonably accurate way of finding citations to journals are via bibliographic databases and citation indices, such as general services like Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar, or field-specific services like Astrophysics Data System, MathSciNet, Chemical Abstracts, International Bibliography of the Social Sciences, and PubMed. The comprehensiveness of the coverage varies by field, geography, language, and thus the threshold for constitute "frequently cited" varies by field. A journal's h-index is a useful metric, although can be hard to reliably obtain for the above reason, and again needs to be compared against what constitute high h-index in the journal's field. Slthom3 (talk) 15:32, 30 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It also seems odd to merge a journal page that has been up for 8 years with a society page that I literally created yesterday...

Comment: nothing what you have posted above indicates any notability, you're misinterpreting NJournals.

In principle, I can live with a merge, although I'm not convinced that the society itself is notable. My preference remains delete. --Randykitty (talk) 07:49, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You are the one putting your own spin on NJournals

Criterion 1: The journal is considered by reliable sources to be influential in its subject area. -> I provided references to books from major publishers that literally say this is an "important journal".

Criterion 2: The journal is frequently cited by other reliable sources. -> Not SCOPUS indexing. "Routine citations" are literally the definition of criterion 2. So I provided evidence of citations. Slthom3 (talk) 01:14, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"Routine citations" is not the objection. A handful of citation is the objection. That's a routine fact, not an exceptional one. Google Scholar doesn't even have it is in top 20 journals on Safety. It has an h5-index of under 20. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 01:37, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

ACTUAL REASON FOR DELETION

So this article is an unsourced Woozle.

The article cites only sources that postdate it's creation, and themselves refer back to wikipedia.
It appears to be an offshoot of a serious article that has just grown due to cummulative casual edits.
I dicovered when trying to list it that it had in fact already been listed for deletion back in 2006 before it had grown into the current mess, but because the editor had failed to follow procedure, the agreed decision to delete was not carried out.

Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2022 October 13. —^{cyberbot I}_{Talk to my owner:Online} 21:33, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So, now that I have actually typed things up pburka, feel free to actually contribute.Jmackaerospace (talk) 21:41, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. Buried in the badly written nomination there is a claim that this article only exists due to WP:CITOGENESIS and that no sources predate its creation. This is false and would have been easily seen to be false if the nominator had attempted a competent literature search. The article was created in March 2004; Wikipedia itself was founded on January 15, 2001. The interesting number paradox can be found in plenty of sources from before that time (it is not necessary that they be cited, unless they can be used to trace the history of the topic). Here are just a few of the earlier ones:
- Gardner, Martin (January 1958), "A collection of tantalizing fallacies of mathematics", Mathematical games, Scientific American, 198 (1): 92–97, JSTOR 24942039
- Chaitin, G. J. (July 1977), "Algorithmic information theory", IBM Journal of Research and Development, 21 (4): 350–359, doi:10.1147/rd.214.0350
- Gould, Henry W. (September 1980), "Which numbers are interesting?", The Mathematics Teacher, 73 (6): 408, JSTOR 27962064

Chaitin also calls attention to its relation to an earlier paradox of Russell on the existence of a smallest undefinable ordinal (despite the fact that all sets of ordinals have a smallest element and that "the smallest undefinable ordinal" would appear to be a definition):

Russell, Bertrand (July 1908), "Mathematical logic as based on the theory of types", American Journal of Mathematics, 30 (3): 222–262, doi:10.2307/2369948, JSTOR 2369948

Although Gardner himself phrased this as a fallacious proof rather than a paradox, Chaitin explicitly calls it a paradox (or synonymously an antimony). —David Eppstein (talk) 21:50, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, those certainly look like valid sources. Jmackaerospace (talk) 21:54, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Since the nominator removed my first !vote, I'll post again. The paradox goes back to at least 1986 when David Wells discussed it in The Penguin Dictionary of Curious and Interesting Numbers, but he claims simply to be repeating something already well known in the mathematical community. The nominator also misinterpreted the result of the first discussion, which was "speedy close", as the original nominator was proposing some sort of merge rather than deletion. pburka (talk) 21:53, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. If the wealth of citation examples provided by the prior commentators can be included to improve the article, I see no reason for it to be deleted, there are certainly less notable things on wikipedia.

- You are, of course, welcome to make improvements to the article yourself (poor referencing is generally WP:SURMOUNTABLE). In the future, you may find it helpful to start a discussion on the article's talk page before going through the cumbersome and bureaucratic deletion process. pburka (talk) 22:46, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  Ok, I was trying to be polite. The subject is non-notable and unsourced and as such should be deleted. You claim to disagree and think it should be kept, but seem to be more interested in making snide comments here than improving the article. Much of the talk page consists of criticism of the concept itself rather than the quality of the article. All of this I took into account before listing here. I'm not a rampant Deletionist, hence my unfamiliarity with the process, but the obvious bad faith you have displayed in your communications from the very beginning inclines me to discount anything you have to say in defence of this article. I have little interest in trying to improve an article that I do not think is notable enough to merit inclusion here in the first place, and certainly none at all if it's primary advocates are themselves uninterested in improving it. Jmackaerospace (talk) 23:28, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep The article now has references from 1958, 1977, 1979, and 1980. So, we really don't have a reason to leave this discussion open for a full week and clutter up the listings: the citogenesis claim is unfounded, an article being an "offshoot" of another isn't a reason for deletion, and the first AfD was not actually closed as "delete".

Here is one source about him, and here is another. I highly suspect that a look through historical Turkish sports magazines will show him to have more than enough coverage, and the Google test is obviously inappropriate for this sort of article. The nominator would also have the onus of explaining why they think that the sources cited on Turkish Wikipedia are inadequate. The subject of the article did not even have a surname at the time he was actively playing (Turkish surnames were introduced later), so in most cases he would simply be discussed as "Ömer", making it doubly difficult to locate sources. --GGT (talk) 11:30, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Miss Hack[edit]

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

According to the AAGPBL website, Hack played for the Muskegon Lassies in 1946. However, all that is known about her is her team and last name. That's it, as her AAGPBL profile states "We are sorry that we do not have her first name or home town. This player has not been located. We have no additional information." I've searched several places, including Newspapers.com, Google, and The Women of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League: A Biographical Dictionary but was not able to find any significant coverage. As a result, she fails WP:GNG. BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:56, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Muskegon Lassies, where she is mentioned. She is even in the team picture on that page. Like Cielquiparle, I searched Newspapers.com in 1946 and could find nothing about a Miss Hack. I think that might not even be her real first name, but an honorific. Regardless, unless being a member of the AAGPBL is an auto-qualifier for notability, not enough in-depth coverage to meet GNG.

Keep I've added additional references and details. Moran gets several mentions in the newer edition of Designers and Dragons, which is really the largest and only history of the industry in existence. She's unquestionably notable unless the entire tabletop roleplaying game hobby outside of Dungeons and Dragons isn't. --Rand Brittain (talk) 17:42, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I'm surprised more information isn't readily popping up on google - she has an extensive listing on RPGnet's contributor index under R. Sean Borgstrom, and her DriveThruRPG page shows her more recent work. The latter is a commercial site, yes, but in the world of indie RPG publishing, it's very difficult to track a person's reputation and career through channels more definitive than the place where they sell their wares.

I have to concur with the others here: Jenna Moran's work is foundational and highly regarded in RPG design circles, especially but not limited to Nobilis. I'm new to wikipedia editing so I'm not sure how best to help show relevance (seeing this article marked for deletion was so shocking that I had to register to investigate what was happening), but I can see how the peculiarly insular world of game design, which operates mostly on ephemeral media like forum posts, Google Groups, and Discord, would be difficult to document to Wikipedia's standards. I would be happy to reach out through the RPG design grapevine to dig up documentation that fits the criteria if need be? LambentBeam (talk) 07:13, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Documentation would be helpful. Reviews in reliable sources would be great. The award is a big deal. As others have noted, that may be enough to meet WP:NAUTHOR criteria 3 or 4. But anything published in a reliable source (Dragon etc.) would be nice. Right now we just really have a short-ish mention in one book and the award. Hobit (talk) 20:20, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Rand Brittain beat me to it comprehensively, but just to second them, they've cited the most definitive sources available.

Extensive references to Jenna Moran's work and its influence on the history of game design can be found in Shannon Applecline's Designers & Dragons Vol 3 - The 90s, and briefly in and Vol 4 - The '00s. Designers & Dragons is the definitive scholarly work on the history of roleplaying games as an industry and a body of creators, it's hard to imagine a higher source for fulfilling WP:NAUTHOR criterion 3. Volume 4 also goes into a some detail on the EOS Press scandal that resulted in Moran's work essentially disappearing off the face of the Earth for years (although there's significantly more to the story than what it describes, alas), which I see Rand has cited in the main article now.
Here's the link to the 2003 Diana Jones Award given to Nobilis and Jenna Moran writing under Borgstrom. As newimpartial points out, this is the industry equivalent of a lifetime achievement award, the sort of thing most designers will never even approach. That seems to fulfill WP:NAUTHOR criteria 1 and 4 ("regarded as important by peers or successors;" "won significant critical attention"), and the coverage in the DJA 2003 page and the writeup for Nobilis in Designers & Dragons Vol 3 goes some ways toward establishing criteria 2 and 3.

- I agree we have Designers & Dragons (which is a great resource btw, we'd have lost dozens, maybe 100s of articles without it) and the DJA award. I'm not seeing much press on Moran getting the award nor much that really discusses her work other than Designers & Dragons. This likely passes WP:NAUTHOR as noted, but WP:N is a lot more debatable and finding sources which would seal the case for WP:N (which would really be one more significant piece that describes her work or her as a person and meets the requirements of WP:RS) would make this open-and-shut. Hobit (talk) 16:56, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  I've edited the article to add interviews with Moran, her RPGgeek reference page, and the fifth thousand-post thread on RPG.net discussing the release of the third edition of Nobilis (the previous four threads were locked after they grew too long for the board's software at the time). It looks like other people have added other interviews, a reference in Pyramid, and other articles. I think this really ought to be enough. I could try and find some references to Moran's work on Exalted for White Wolf (which is notable in and of itself since her contribution established several major parts of the game's factions and backstory), but at this point her article has more outside sources than the article for Exalted does, which has dozens of cites, nearly all of which are to Exalted itself. Rand Brittain (talk) 05:16, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

weak keep I think she meets WP:NAUTHOR with the award (though it is for the system, not the person, and the award is sometimes given to a person...). I think we have enough to write on with the non-independent sources and the Designers & Dragons stuff. But it's closer than ideal. Hobit (talk) 16:56, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

List of CryEngine games[edit]

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

NOTE that there’s also a discussion on deleting the categories of games by engine:

Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2022 October 13#Category:Video games by game engine

It’s logical to discuss list articles too. Moreover, the engine of the game is often poorly sources as discussed in video games project, and lists tend to stay incomplete.

I am nominating these list articles:

--Respiciens (talk) 11:58, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment List articles do not fall under the same WP:NONDEF policy as categories. It is entirely possible for lists of games by engine to be a notable topic. I won't say any opinion either way yet but I am just putting it out there that there is not really a stated rationale for deletion, see WP:NEXIST for why "poorly sourced" isn't an argument in AfD. I am leaning delete due to their nature as forever incomplete lists for some of the ongoing engines. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 13:22, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, especially due to the growing proliferation of third-party engine licensing. If a game has an engine with a notable name and article, it can be listed in its infobox and/or the article text. --ProtoDrake (talk) 17:02, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or Merge I am in favor of keeping at least the list of Ren'Py games, although for more popular game engines like Unity and Unreal Engine it seems rather difficult to keep the lists of notable games that use them up-to-date. A game engine that has fewer notable games such as Ren'Py is easier to maintain a quality list of that includes all the games on it that are notable according to Wikipedia. I think the list of Ren'Py games is fairly complete as far as all the notable ones go (there are many times that number of games made in Ren'Py but none of the others are notable on Wikipedia as far as I know). For similar reasons (regarding the list being fairly complete and the article quality being good) I am in favor of keeping the list of Sierra's Creative Interpreter games, which is also a historical list for a game engine no longer in active use for new games that is part of an earlier era of video game history. Additionally, Sierra Entertainment is/was a video game developer/publisher and this is closely associated with them as a developer/publisher, and there are many lists of video games by various developers or publishers, so I think the Sierra's Creative Interpreter games list ought to stay in some form even if we get rid of lists of games by game engine, perhaps merging it into List of Sierra Entertainment video games. It seems that CryEngine and GameMaker are somewhere in between as far as how many games use them, not as popular as Unity or Unreal Engine but still might possibly be used by more notable games than are listed, and CryEngine games include a lot by Crytek so if we get rid of that article, we should at least preserve a list of Crytek games (which does not exist as a separate article right now since they are all on the list of CryEngine games currently), but such lists exist for other game developers and publishers. Additionally, RenderWare seems like it used to be somewhat popular but mostly stopped being used in the late 2000s and hardly anyone has used it in years, which means maintaining the article listing games made with it ought to be fairly easy since new ones are not being made.

Of course this only answers the questions of article quality and completeness for the articles, not whether the articles themselves are notable or not. I think regarding notability, if the game engine is notable and the games themselves are also notable, it logically follows that a list of games using that game engine would also be notable too, most likely, unless I am missing something. There is of course the issue of sourcing/citation, i.e. coming up with a source to cite that says that this game is based on this engine. Personally I think that for a notable game, the game itself is a source and if you run the game and it says what engine it uses, or take a brief look at the game files and it is obvious what game engine it uses, this ought to implicitly count as a verifiable source that anyone can independently verify as factually correct, and would not be original research because anyone can do it to verify it. In the case of Ren'Py games for instance, they all have very similar user interfaces and huge numbers of other similarities such as all having similar main menus and different options in those menus and looking the same when you play the actual game. In fact, although Ren'Py games are almost all visual novels, it is usually fairly easy to spot a Ren'Py game and distinguish it from another visual novel, because other visual novels tend to have much more variety in their user interfaces while Ren'Py games tend to all have a very similar look that is immediately identifiable. The same is true of the NScripter engine listed at List of visual novel engines#NScripter, regarding it being quite easy to spot and identify based on having a unique appearance different from other game engines (e.g. if you know what Tsukihime looks like, the other NScripter games all have the same look too as far as the main menu interface and how they look during gameplay itself). However a list of NScripter games does not exist (most likely because NScripter does not have its own Wikipedia page and is only listed on another page, making the case for such a list being notable less strong, because we are not sure if NScripter itself is notable or not). Also regarding the Sierra's Creative Interpreter games, there is a popular emulator that can play all of them known as ScummVM and they are similar to a game platform such as games for a specific historic game console of the 1980s or 1990s like the NES, Sega Genesis, SNES, PlayStation, etc., in that they can all be emulated quite well by a game emulator that supports the Sierra Creative Interpreter platform, but other games using platforms not supported by the ScummVM platform are not playable in ScummVM. The list of SCI games is thus useful for people who use ScummVM as well as interesting for historical reasons of the early history of video games, and obviously new games using that engine are not being made except perhaps minor noncommercial projects by hobbyists which would make the new ones not notable (similar to how occasionally hobbyists make new Atari 2600 or NES games even now but these minor games are not even remotely notable and hardly anyone is aware they exist).

The list of articles nominated for deletion above, regarding lists of games made by specific game engines, is incomplete, so in the event that we are going to be deleting some or all of these lists rather than keeping them, here are some others that you could potentially create a separate AfD for if this AfD is successful at deletion (some of these I think ought to be deleted even if this AfD fails):

List of games with support for high-fidelity image upscaling (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (again this is a redirect and there isn’t even a list where this links to, and actually I think this redirect should be deleted because there is no possible way to list games with support for high-fidelity image upscaling since that is a common thing and such a list does not even exist and this redirect is not an accurate redirect and does not redirect to what it says it does and the thing it is supposed to redirect to does not even exist on Wikipedia, so it should be deleted)

List of games with DLSS support (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (this is just a redirect, but the page it links to does not have a list, also DLSS is a relatively new technology but more and more games will support it in the future until the list of games supporting it will be very very long, technically DLSS is not a game engine but this is similar enough you might want to consider it, anyway this list does not exist so it should be deleted for being a misleading redirect)

Frostbite (game engine)#Games using Frostbite (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (this list of games using the Frostbite game engine is on the page for the Frostbite game engine as a section rather than being a separate article, you could consider it as a list that has been merged into the article on its game engine, actually I think this sort of thing should be kept and if we delete these articles we should try and merge these lists in the same way as this one, I am not in favor of deleting this, this is an example of what to keep... while this doesn’t exist as a separate article, it is linked to from the List of Lists of video games in the By engine section so this is relevant)

List of Frostbite games (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (this is a redirect to Frostbite (game engine)#Games using Frostbite above, anyway this redirect ought to suffer the same fate that these other lists of games by game engine all get, personally I think it should stay and that we should keep it, I am just listing all of these for completeness}}

List of GoldSrc mods (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (this is a list of mods to games that use the GoldSrc game engine and is one of the lists listed on the List of lists of games in the By engine section, personally I think this article is good and should be kept, but if you delete all these other articles the consistent thing would be deleting this one too)

List of Source mods (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (this lists mods to games that use the Source game engine and is one of the lists listed on the List of lists of games in the By engine section, although I like this list and think it should stay, some of the mods listed in it are not notable enough to have their own Wikipedia articles, anyway if we are being consistent, this article should be considered along with the others)

List of yaoi games (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (this is a redirect to the page on the Yaoi genre, and that page does not even have a list of yaoi games, and while this isn’t related to a game engine, I think this redirect ought to be deleted since what it claims to be, a List of yaoi games, does not exist on Wikipedia, and yaoi is such a common genre of game now, it would be impossible to list them all, plus most yaoi games are not notable, so I think this should be deleted regardless, even though technically unrelated to the game engine topic here)

There are many other lists of games but I think that about covers it.

Anyway I would like to keep or merge lists of video games by game engine, in general, although there are some cases of lists I think should be deleted and some of the lists are better quality than others or make more sense to keep than others. Supposing for the sake of argument that those of you who do not want to keep these lists do not find my arguments to keep them convincing, and assuming that I end up on the losing side of the argument and the lists end up being deleted, I suggest a compromise. The content of those articles could at least be merged into the articles about their game engines, so the articles about their game engines would have lists of games made in those engines, as a section. This is how things already work on the article about the Frostbite game engine, for instance. So my compromise proposal, if my favored proposal of keeping the articles in question is declined, is that we merge the content into the articles about the game engines. This makes sense for various reasons: first of all, the game engines are notable, secondly, the games listed in the lists are also notable, third, this is useful information about the game engines and which games use them that is relevant to the subject of an article, if the subject is a game engine. So in the event that these list articles are deleted, I am of a very STRONG opinion that they should be merged into the articles on the game engines as sections, and that the lists should be turned into redirects to those sections. And perhaps if you add in a comment in the articles in that section, as well as a comment in the redirect, saying that turning those lists into separate pages would require consensus on the talk page for the game engine in question, and putting a little note on the talk page of each game engine explaining this situation, about how you all decided to delete articles listing games by game engine, and so they shouldn’t be restored, but are being kept as redirects to sections of the articles on each game engine.

Anyway I am willing to compromise on letting these articles get deleted and turned into redirects to sections of the articles on the game engines, but, regarding article quality, I think this would make the articles on the game engines get a bit longer than I would prefer, and I think ideally, these lists do better as separate pages, in terms of having the content of an article not be excessively long and how, for example, on an article about a TV show with, oh, say, 13 episodes, typically those episodes are listed on a separate page in order to improve readability and not make the TV show article too long. So my preference is still to keep all these articles. If they are just deleted without even merging the content into the articles on the game engines, I have no doubt people will try to list games made using those engines on the articles about those game engines, but this will be made much more difficult if you just delete without merging, and result in worse article quality for all the articles on game engines, and make the lists that are on the game engine pages themselves be much more incomplete, losing all the time and work that people put into compiling these lists. Anyway, I don’t see how it is useful to delete these lists, because people who are interested in games and game engines and want to look up that information ought to be able to find it on Wikipedia, at least if the games and game engines are notable. Wikipedia is full of all sorts of lists like these, they don’t do any harm, everything on them as well as their topics is notable, given that the game engines and games are both notable, and deleting these lists doesn’t accomplish anything except removing useful information from what is supposed to be an online encyclopedia that covers all notable topics. This proposed deletion makes no sense to me, deleting useful information that is clearly notable, and I oppose it, and urge people to either keep or merge this content, preferably keeping it the way it is rather than having to merge it onto the articles for the game engines. Simply deleting it entirely, in all of these cases, would just be a senseless act of destroying information, akin to burning the books of a library although to a much much smaller degree, I don’t mean to be overly dramatic here, I am just trying to make an analogy to illustrate my perspective. Of course I respect the opinions of the other people in this discussion and think you are also trying to make Wikipedia the best it can be, in good faith, just like me, I just differ on whether I think these lists should continue to exist or not. Apologies for writing such a long comment but I thought it was necessary to go into more detail on a number of specific cases and discuss different options we have and what I thought were the benefits and drawbacks of each.

Also make sure to consider what to do about those other cases I mentioned not in the original AfD, and if this one is successful at deletion despite my opposition, please try to be consistent about applying this new precedent in a fair way to the other articles in a way that makes sense, so that whatever decision is made here, it is applied consistently in a way that maximizes article quality, gets rid of deceptive redirects to content that does not even exist on Wikipedia, and so on. I realize those other articles I linked to are ones that would require a separate AfD and cannot be done in this one, but I thought listing them here would be useful as a reference to use in the future if any AfD(s) ever are made for the others. Thank you for considering my thoughts and sorry I did not specifically cite Wikipedia policies, I have a general understanding of many of them but I wanted to have a more practical discussion rather than just trying to make an argument by citing stuff like WP:NOTPAPER that is in keeping with my arguments here (especially since the Wikipedia is not paper thing is often used as a last resort to keep non-encyclopedic content, but I still think it is a good policy that is probably the most relevant one for me to cite here, especially given the part about splitting articles to keep things more accessible, that is a good argument for keeping these lists as separate articles from the main articles on the game engines, because realistically, the articles on the game engines are going to list games that use them if we do delete these articles, which could result in some of them becoming excessively long, which is not good for accessibility for mobile users or users with slow Internet connections or so on). Like realistically, if we delete these list articles, do you really think the editors of the CryEngine or Ren'Py etc. articles will just NOT have any list of games that use those engines, not even on those article pages themselves in a section like how is done on the Frostbite game engine article? Of course that content will get added back there, since it is relevant to the subjects of the game engine articles, and about notable games, and verifiable by anyone who downloads and installs the games to see what engine they use. But it will be added back here in a worse form than the current form of these separate lists, less complete, contributing to excessive page length, etc., which would be especially bad for the pages on the Unity or Unreal Engines. They would get way too long if that happened, there is an article size limit after all. I think keeping all these lists as-is is the most practical solution for avoiding excessively long pages about the game engines. Because if we did delete these pages and then this information got recreated on those game engine pages, people would try separating those lists of games using those game engines into separate Wikipedia pages again, re-creating what we would be deleting here, and then you would have to delete it again, citing this AfD’s decision to delete, and it would just be an endless cycle, people would keep trying to re-create these articles, in other words, and they would not find the arguments against these articles even remotely convincing, leading to future AfDs and an endless cycle of controversy and arguments, which can easily be averted by just letting these articles stay. They aren’t hurting anyone or ruining Wikipedia’s reputation, their content is quality encyclopedic content which ought to stay on Wikipedia in some form, ideally on the current articles, but if not that, at least on the articles about the game engines. If you really do not think this content should be on Wikipedia, do AfDs on the articles for the game engines themselves, rather than just these lists. Those AfDs would probably fail, of course, because those game engines are notable and are cited as such by multiple reliable independent sources. Obviously I am in favor of keeping the articles on the game engines, I am just saying that these lists are of equal notability to the game engines themselves and if you delete one it is logical to delete the other (and both are bad ideas that I oppose). —yetisyny (talk • contribs) 17:29, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Regarding the articles about mods (List of GoldSrc mods, List of Source mods), I deliberately omitted them from this nomination, as that would be better in in a separate discussion.

Regarding your arguments, I think that we should keep Ren’py list in some form (possibly merged) - I had doubts about it, but included it for sake of completeness.

Maybe we should keep Sierra Creative interpreter list too. If it’s correct that all games in this list were made by Sierra and not third parties, then it can be merged into List of Sierra Entertainment video games. But it should be reworked - there’s too many unnecessary (and unsourced) details like exact version of engine for each version of each game. --Respiciens (talk) 18:05, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. (and if not kept, userify so the information remains accessible for export to Wikidata) I added sources to various entries on List of RenderWare games back in 2018, proving it can be done. For a number of titles, the splash screen/credits of the game itself can be a source.
and lists tend to stay incomplete
WP:NODEADLINE. Unlike the lists we are discussing, there is absolutely zero hope List of best-selling PC games will ever be complete, or even remotely accurate as that list doesn't just list a property but ranks its entries, despite many entries missing or having ludicrous numbers. GTA V sold just 2 million copies on PC, barely 1% of the total? Srsly? And GTA IV didn't even make the list? Or bloody Skyrim even, that sold less than 1 million copies apparently since it didn't make the list. My point: tending to stay incomplete isn't a reason for deletion. And these lists have at least some chance of becoming complete some day as new games with old engines are rather uncommon. It might take decades, but WP:NODEADLINE. Unless we delete them now, which will guarantee they will never be complete, but that would be a self-fulfilling prophecy.
@Masem, you mentioned adding engine information to Wikidata. That could be an alternative, but until that export has been completed we shouldn't destroy the information itself here. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 18:01, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Agree these are non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations and are much better served (as a ton of these lists are) via categories in virtually every way. There aren't sources talking about specific game engines and specific details of them to a degree they meet LISTN (even stuff like Unity where "Unity jank" gets thrown out as a criticism of games that use it and are poorly optimized) and what you're left with are lists that cannot ever be reasonably complete. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ^talk 20:01, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete on the basis that these lists do not seem referenced. I agree with the comment about that categories are better. I note however a related categories for deletion at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2022 October 13 that feeds into here. I think we need to come to a conclusion about what needs to be deleted and why. Or should we just keep? Or just purge the categories and lists at the same time, although I think this may upset a few people. - Master Of Ninja (talk) 20:41, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations. Woodroar (talk) 21:25, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as given above. I would also point out that even for games using one of these engines, using categories is not a suitable replacement as most games are not recognized by their game engine...they are non defining cats, at least as cats are now currently used. Wikidata is a better location to store engine data and make that usable for database purposes. --Masem (t) 23:10, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Masem, but the information on Wikidata is incomplete. For example d:Q94671 does list Renderware, but not the source that List of RenderWare games provides. What about moving these lists to userspace?
  I personally don't care that strongly about keeping these as articles, but I strongly oppose deletion which makes the information inaccessible altogether. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 04:43, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - Would also agree with above - I've edited d:Q94671 to give a reference to the information that this is Renderware, but I am not totally versed in WikiData structuring. Masem - from your writing I wonder if you are more versed in storing and extracting information from Renderware? In that case is it worth keeping the lists and categories for a while, whilst the information is moved over to WikiData? And a VG project WikiData guide can be made on how to store data consistently, and how to do a WikiData search for this information. - Master Of Ninja (talk) 06:35, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  There is no WP:DEADLINE. I don't think there is any automated scheme that can be used here, so it will just require time to complete the date in Wikidata. Masem (t) 13:23, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  Masem, but if these lists are deleted (and not moved to userspace) the closure of this discussion would be the deadline as non-admins won't be able to access the lists after that. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 14:30, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  WP:REFUND exists for that reason. If a user intends to lede the effort to bring the content to wikidata, then they can request userification to access the list. Masem (t) 15:43, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  That's just an additional hurdle and a waste of admin's time. I might consider chipping away at it at some point, perhaps Master of Ninja too, perhaps others. The deletion of these lists isn't being discussed because the content is harmful (like spam or misinformation), this is about scope. Deletion doesn't have any technical benefit either, so why not userify? — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 16:32, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  you can ask for userification now, that's an option too. But there's agreement (so far) that we don't feel these need to be in the mainspace of WP. Masem (t) 23:00, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  Hi all. Apologies for delay as I had other things to do. *If* there is consensus for deletion, I am more than accepting that the articles are moved to my userspace if no-one else wants to take this over, and as long as there are no significant negative consequences of doing so (I am not so versed in this part of WP). I don't have lots of time to do it, but I can slowly move things to Wikidata if neither categories nor list are acceptable on a consensus basis. This will be a slow project, and I would want the support of the relevant Wikiproject. I think once you understand what Wikidata is doing, you can get something like this - the link is run through the Wikidata Query Service and is a list of all articles tagged as video games, with the engine listed as Renderware. You could likely link it to the relevant WP page as a query, so avoids lists and categories. The way I think WikiData works is that the game and the software engine need to be notable enough to have their own WP page, so it gets around a lot of the notability issues. In fact the WikiData branch of the WikiProject video games already has a page that generates statistics - I think it just needs more reports to be constructed and generated, that can then be linked to from wikipedia. Thoughts? - Master Of Ninja (talk) 08:16, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep As I just said at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2022_October_13#Category:Video_games_by_game_engine, millions of people download and try to make games with these engines each year. Some of them actually succeed. This is useful for those searching for information about them. The lists should only have games that are notable enough to have their own Wikipedia articles of course. Useful for navigation and more information can be presented than what categories have. Dream Focus 07:28, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This argument would only make sense if someone was trying to delete the game engine articles themselves, which they aren't. The rest of your argument is just saying you find the lists useful. Sergecross73 msg me 15:53, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and use categories instead. These lists have little pratical value. It may be a good idea to put them into categories. MilkyDefer 09:39, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@User:MilkyDefer Do look at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2022 October 13#Category:Video games by game engine for the related discussion about deleting the categories. As pointed above we actually need to decide do we delete nothing, delete categories, delete lists, or delete both? - Master Of Ninja (talk) 10:51, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The categories are even more clearly not defining at all. Reliable sources do not "commonly and consistently" mention a game's engine when they are speaking about a game, like they do for its genre, release date, etc. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 13:55, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
At best, the first one or two games using a new engine or new version of an engine may be commented that way, but thats really the extent of how a game gets recognized assocuation with an engine. Masem (t) 15:45, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep — We are in the process of deleting the categories and listifying. They are inappropriate as categories, as such only appear for articles, so are woefully incomplete. Lists better support references.
William Allen Simpson (talk) 12:37, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep if we're lumping all of these together as one discussion; in general it looks like we're trying to delete an entire class of lists; related to game engines. I can't find any WP:PAG-based reason to do so; the only reason I could think to consider an entire group of lists like this is if they entire class of them violated something like WP:LISTPURP, which they do not; both the "information" and "navigation" purpose seem to be met by the class in general. If individual lists in this class are inappropriate for other reasons, they should be considered individually; but if we're asking (as this discussion is) "Should Wikipedia have lists about video game engines", my answer is "why not?" If we need a general policy or guideline specifically against having lists of games by game engine, then that needs to be instituted by a policy discussion and documented somewhere, and not legislated via XFD. --Jayron 32 16:30, 19 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The navigation aspect of this is highly quedtionable... it is mostly a one way link list with the referenced game articles unlikely to link back to this (but back to the engine article). There is very little these games have in common beyond the engine (there are far better values that link games together, like genre or platform). The information angle is something that can be replicated nowadays using Wikidata functions (those that does need updating). So the basic issue is that this now falls into the NOTDIR aspects.. this is not a type of list regularly discussed on RSes (engines themselves are, just not enumerating games using that engine) Masem (t) 16:08, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hindu mythological and devotional cinema[edit]

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

WP:POVFUNNEL: That era also had films from other religions, as well as folklores. WP:CONTENTFORK as it can be incorporated in Cinema of India, also forks the genre Mythological film / Fantasy film. Hardly satisfies WP:GNG. Fight Island (talk) 18:48, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Fictional elements, Science fiction and fantasy, Film, Religion, and India. Fight Island (talk) 18:48, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge As there seems to be a book about the subject, it seems likely that this can support a stand-alone article. I don't see the WP:POVFUNNEL argument, as the article does not claim that it is about an era of film, but rather a significant topical sub-section of the era before 1923 and beyond. In its current form we only have stub, though, so I have no problem if the majority prefers to merge the current content to a suitable broader topic and only split it out again in case someone adds enough content. Daranios (talk) 18:59, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:Daranios, there's no "book about the subject", there's mention in pages 303–305. Currently, parent article Cinema of India does not have a section dedicated to it or mention of it in History section. Standalone sub-topic article is odd.--2409:4073:118:6B79:20EB:9C1C:FC4C:251F (talk) 10:11, 8 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The cited review of Deities & Devotees suggests that that book is at least to a large part about the subject. Or did I get that wrong? The same review also calls out Filming the Gods by Rachel Dwyer and the Encyclopaedia of Indian Cinema as further sources on the topic. Daranios (talk) 19:31, 8 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. I agree that if this is kept there should be a corresponding sub-section added to Cinema of India, presumably at "Genres and styles". But the fact that there is not such section yet should not be a reason to delete this article. Daranios (talk) 19:47, 8 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~: And perhaps rename to either Hindu mythological cinema or Puranic cinema, as many non-secular religious zealots treat these films as fact-based. Also because devotional films are largely different, e.g.: Palayathu Amman is not a mythological as it is set in present day, but devotion to a god plays a prominent role in the story. Kailash29792 (talk) 03:20, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Now I vote to delete. Kailash29792 (talk) 10:46, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Additional note: We don't normally create separate articles for subgenres, such as Arabian mythological film, Norse mythological film, Slavic mythological film, African mythological film, Celtic mythological film, Persian mythological film etc. It's all mythology. Even mythological film don't have a separate article. But we have Norse mythology in popular culture, may be Hindu mythology in popular culture is a broader and better option. Fight Island (talk) 14:56, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Fight Island: I think there are two differences between our article and your examples. On the one hand I imagine that there are more Hindu mythological films than for the other mythologies. On the other, the one cinema is rooted in a major living religion, which is not the case for the others. Whatever we as authors may think of these mythologies, in the one case scholars of religion can and have analyzed the reactions of the believers to the films, in the other cases not (so much). A closer comparison would be between Hindu devotional cinema and Christian cinema, which does have an article, more or less. More importantly, I think we don't normally make a program beforehand what subarticles we create or don't create. Rather, it depends if there are secondary sources, especially scholarly ones, which can support an encyclopedic article or not. That's what WP:GNG is all about, and that should be the critereon here, too - while still respecting WP:CONTENTFORK and WP:NPOV, of course. If we have enough secondary material, let's have a Hindu mythological cinema article. If we have enough for a Norse mythological film, let's have that one, too. One does not depend on the existence of the other, that would be a WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS kind of argument. Daranios (talk) 18:31, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Content forking is content forking. As already told, even mythological film has no separate article. GNG is not a guarantee for inclusion, not to mention it hardly satisfies here, as GNG requires "significant coverage" in "independent sources" specifically discussing "Hindu mythological film" as an independent genre as the book claims (not the broader Indian mythological film). I see only two sources on the article and can't find any on the web. Contrary to what you accused, other stuff does not exists here.--Fight Island (talk) 15:17, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Fight Island: "Content forking is content forking." Sure, so why are we leading a deletion discussion here, not a merge discussion? You are arguing mostly based on the current state of the article. That, however, is not the decisive factor according to the notability guideline. The question is are there enough secondary sources so that we could write a reasonable encyclopedia article on our specific topic here, or only enough to support a paragraph in a larger article. This should have been determined by a WP:BEFORE search preceding a nomination for deletion. So did you check out the three books I've mentioned, and how substantial the content of the three pages from Explorations in New Cinema History actually is?

As for "other stuff does not exists here", that essay says we should avoid the argument "We do not have an article on y, so we should not have an article on this.", which seems to be pretty much what you are saying with reference to mythological films in general. The existence of this article in no way hinders the creation of such a parent article. Daranios (talk) 18:41, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - it is WP:POVFUNNEL, and lacks sources desperately. It can be merged with Cinema of India, but carefully since Indian cinema was nowhere and never divided per ethnicity, there is no theory of cinema that makes such distinction in any significant manner. Redirect could be left, but I would prefer not as it could potentially feed into more ethno-nationalism.--౪ Santa ౪^99° 07:30, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Can I ask why you think the article should be deleted? all sources I provided were WP:WPKR/Reliable sources approved (for those review blogs, I never posted or even saw any of those so feel free to remove them).

Also, I was planning on adding sources for everything here, I was just preparing a list, this article is clearly not complete yet so I was disappointed to hear it's nominated for deletion.

As for the improvements, I found hundreds of articles about the film, I tried to select the most relevent ones here:

[3] Via Maekyung Media
[2] Via Cine21
[3] Via Nate
[4] Via Cine21
[5] Via The Chosun Ilbo
[6] Via StarNews
RWikiED20 (talk) 14:59, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Many of your sources are routine announcements (mainly with quotes) or interviews, and probably doesn't constitute significant coverage. If you could find two reliable in-depth reviews or articles with significant critical commentary, I'd be happy to withdraw the nomination then as it would pass WP:GNG or WP:NFILM. However, the refs provided doesn't show this yet. VickKiang (talk) 20:59, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't know reviews are necessary here for the article, because as I said there were a lot of articles about the film, some more detailed than others (the Cine21 report had pretty much everything). I don't understand how critical reception could get the article deleted.

Also, if you're familiar with the Korean entertainment industry, you'd know there isn't really much critical reception in the Korean media, there aren't sites like Rotton Tomatoes or IMDB, and the only reviews you could find are passing mentions in some reports (mostly aren't even professional), Cine21 is the closest one to having professional critics and I already pulled links from it. RWikiED20 (talk) 22:54, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The lack of reviews could possibly indicate iffy notability, but I concur it alone is not a reason to delete an article. But I disagree with that many of these articles are SIGCOV, though let's wait for the views of more editors to build a consensus. Your analysis is reasonable, though I was just referring to criteria 1 of WP:NFILM, The film is widely distributed and has received full-length reviews by two or more nationally known critics. It appears that NFILM is failed, so we're looking at GNG. Despite having lots of quotes and plot overviews, this seems IMO decent, but others IMO fail SIGCOV. If we're looking at GNG, some of the refs you linked fall under: not all coverage in reliable sources constitutes evidence of notability for the purposes of article creation; for example, directories and databases, advertisements, announcements columns, and minor news stories are all examples of coverage that may not actually support notability when examined, despite their existence as reliable sources IMHO. You'd know there isn't really much critical reception in the Korean media, there aren't sites like Rotton Tomatoes or IMDB- I didn't expect that this would have many reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, besides, per WP:RSP IMDb is generally unreliable. owever, let's agree to disagree here, and I appreciate your efforts. Many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 23:11, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, I agree that none of these sources constitute significant coverage and are minor news stories. The interview article could possibly indicate some notability, but interviews are still generally considered primary sources. If this interview is the only notable source in the article, then I don't think it's enough to pass WP:GNG. ɴᴋᴏɴ21 ❯❯❯ talk 03:32, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rachel Chaikof[edit]

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

The subject of this article is not notable. The majority of the sources included in the article are first-person (based on self-reporting and/or brief mentions in interviews, anecdotes, or blog posts), and the notability claims seem to include having a genetic disease, winning a middle-school science fair, and being photographed for a poster as a youngster.

I communicated with the page creator about the nature of the sources and some inaccuracies on the talk page. I'm concerned by the creator's responses -- admitting that they were adding more information as retaliation for what appears to be good-faith blanking -- that this is in fact an attempt at doxxing a non-notable person with whom they have some sort of personal disagreement. (To wit, since my most recent edits to clean up dead citations and correct the name of the science fair, the page author has added the subject's full birthdate to the article.) Kerri9494 (talk) 01:13, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

~~Speedy~~ Strong keep. ~~Stop lying~~ All information in the article is from what has been published earlier (ergo doxxing accusations are absurd). We know very well that the sources in the article are independent, detailed, secondary sources, which consist of in-depth coverage in many prestigious publications like University of Toronto, Jewish Advocate, Moment Magazine, Deaf Life, just to name a few. Those aren't blogs or self-reporting! Also...

0. "Good-faith blanking"?!?!?! No. People aren't permitted to unilaterally blank a well-sourced Wikipedia article without discussion, ESPECIALLY if it is their own article. Period. That's vandalism. And Ms. Chaikof was rightly told she was completely out of line by even trying to edit her own page, much less wholly blank it and replace the text with "removed my personal information" (which, I reiterate, it not personal information as she made herself available to the media to publish!)

1. The article's notability is based on this person being an icon in the oralist world and prominent cochlear implant, and having media coverage in numerous major media outlets as a results. In fact, she is the ONLY pediatric prelingual CI recipient with a Wikipedia article. Deleting her article would mean that nobody can read about an example of a prelingual pediatric recipient here. Sure, there are some sources that contain interviews, but many of the other sources just contain a quote here and there with the rest of the text being by a journalist (and the books like Wired for Sound). So this person absolutely meets WP:GNG due to extensive independent media coverage - after all, she is covered in detail the Times of Israel, Moment Magazine, University of Toronto, Jewish Journal, The Weekly News, and described in many more independent books (cited in the article) such as Wired for Sound plus even a mention in Scientific American. Those aren't self-reporting and blogs! And there's probably a lot more print sources that I haven't even found yet (I will make a point of finding more on my next Library of Congress visit)

2. You have not mentioned a SINGLE thing that you consider to be an innaccuracy/matter of factual dispute in the article. The article cites numerous non-primary sources, from books and newspapers to magazines. This person is clearly the most famous and media-covered pediatric cochlear implant recipient in the device's entire existance.

3. In the very recent past, an IP account that was certainly from the subject of the article repeatedly blanked the page, replacing the contents with "removing my personal information" (a huge violation of Wikipedia policy) and continued to do so despite being told not to by other editors. And now, just a little while after than happened, and editor who has been inactive for months and demonstrates the same lack of understanding about basic Wikipedia functions (ex, forgetting to sign posts, writing on other peoples userpages, etc) is heavily pushing for deletion? That's rather sus.

4. I only wrote information that was available to the general public via newspapers, magazines, and books. NOTHING in the article is private. This is a public figure who made themself available to the media and is being summarized in Wikipedia as a highly notable cochlear implant recipient. That is NOT doxxing. It is completely permissible to include a full birthdate in a BLP if you have a source for the information (the book I cited). And I doubt it's a coincidence that the pages previously cited in the article have recently dissapeared from the WayBackMachine.

5. You have no grounds to even presume I have a personal disagreement with Ms. Chaikof (putting aside the obvious infuriating annoyance at her attempts to vandalize the article I wrote). I humbly suggest that you read WP:Assume good faith to understand that such accusations require better evidence than (gasp) creating a neutral-toned Wikipedia article for someone who has received significant media coverage. When I first publisher her article and emailed her asking to release a photo under a CC-BY-SA license, I was expecting her to be thoroughly delighted to finally have one. I was utterly shocked when she replied insisting that I delete it and followed it up with taking down the Cochlear Implant Online website, which had been a very helpful resource during preliminary research for other Wikipedia articles that I've worked on.

Overall, it is fairly obvious that Ms. Chaikof who clearly doesn't want a Wikipedia article is behind this deletion campaign. It is not an acceptable reason to delete the article just out of her not wanting a Wikipedia article out of dislike that it makes easier to find information that she already allowed to be public via accepting interviews and bragging on her blog about being mentioned in some of those publications. (clearly even she doesn't buy this "not notable" BS). TLDR - most famous pediatric cochlear implant recipient/most famous cochlear implant advocate. Too much independent media coverage to not be considered notable.--RespectCE (talk) 01:47, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete being in the Peace Corps isn't notable, she might have a shot for being an early cochlear implant person, but most of the citations are tangential.

Comment most of the sources used aren't even about this person. Washington Post article is about a different person that mentions Rachel in passing.

She might be notable in the public eye, but she isn't for wikipedia's purposes. Oaktree b (talk) 02:18, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The books I cited are not written by her. And I'm pretty sure University of Toronto, Moment Magazine, Times of Israel, Weekly News, and Deaf Life are not deprecated sources. While the Scientific American and WashPo articles were a passing mention, many others were highly detailed - like the one in Deaf Life and the Wired for sound book (and the other books) and magazines like Moment Magazone are NOT by her, but independent writers. And I find it concerning that we are ignoring the fact that this nomination is by what is almost certainly a sock of the IP that recently vandalized the article.--RespectCE (talk) 03:05, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- I don't think we should reward dirty underhanded tactics to push for article deletion from parties who don't want articles. Ms. Chaikof should have posted on the talkpage, not vandalized Wikipedia. Giving in to vandals will only further incentivize the practice. If there is some specific piece of information that she doesn't want in the article, she should have asked on the talkpage if it could be removed, not repeatedly trying to blank the whole page.--RespectCE (talk) 11:24, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@RespectCE: Can you please stop bludgeoning folks who are trying to discuss the article in natural way, that will eventually lead to conensus. Stating things like "out of dislike" or "out of line" or "Stop lying". is not WP:AGF. If you keep it up, you might end up at WP:ANI. Please concentrate on content not on the people discussing the article. scope_creep^Talk 14:12, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Scope creep: I will try to remain civil, but the nominator has made this rather personal by throwing various unfounded accusations at me personally for writing the article (ex, claiming that it is doxxing) and falsely insinuating that the article has no good sources. That doesn't help maintain a discussion, and I have a right to defend my dignity in the face of this and rebutt patetnly false claims made in the discussion (ex, claims that the books cited were written by her despite the fact that they were by different authors like Charlotte DeWitt, Beverly Biderman, Cynthia Farley, etc. And the article that was written by her is cited only for the information in the section that provides author information that was written by the staff of the Usher organization, not her.--RespectCE (talk) 14:18, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLPKIND describes exactly this situation. The subject has had it pretty tough, is clearly upset by the page and in my view we need to be kind. There's nothing overwhelming here that suggests we cannot possibly survive without the page, and everything to suggest that she's of marginal notability at best. One of the links is a newspaper article where she speaks up for someone else in trouble. Maybe you are taking this a touch too personally RespectCE. JMWt (talk) 14:21, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- @JMWt: Wikipedia will be deeply lacking if this article is deleted; she is currently the ONLY prelingual pediatric CI recipient with an article right now. The subject is a role model and certainly the most prominent person with Usher Syndrome. Having an example that a person with it can still accomplish a lot (learning French, serving in the Peace Corps, founding a highly popular blog) will serve to be helpful to many other people with Usher, especially Type 1F that she and her family advocate research for so much. I don't envy Ms. Chaikof by any means, but deleting her Wikipedia article is not a good way to help people with disabilities - especially since it reduces representation of diversity in the D/deaf community that Chaikof herself advocates for greater broader representation of. What I take personally is the fact that I am being accused of "doxxing" her by writing an article using information already published from a variety of highly respectable sources. I certainly hope Ms. Chaikof one day realizes how important it is to the little-d community, cochlear implant users, hearing aid users alike, that she has a Wikipedia article that shows what people like her (and with similar conditions) can do. A look at my edit history shows this; I have written expensively about various CI companies, gotten people with various CI sound processors to donate photos to Commons; I have even uploaded pics of my shitty Unitron hearing aids to Commons. And I hope to write additional articles about HA and CI users besides Ms. Chaikof.--RespectCE (talk) 14:27, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You've been asked to stop but you haven't stopped. Instead you continue making the same claims about a BLP and other editors here. Do you actually want this to go to WP:ANI? JMWt (talk) 14:37, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What exactly am I supposed to say here? You addressed your post to me by name. My recent most didn't even repeat or say ANYTHING negative, only offering a perspective noting general under-representation of cochlear implant and hearing aid recipients in Wikipedia. It's not exactly a secret that Wikipedia needs a bit of updates on all things hearing technology related (which as I noted in the previous post, is demonstrated in articles that aren't about her at all that are dominated by more obsolete tech). Heck, I'm even suggesting some kind of comprimise, ex, making the article a redirect to a different article (be it cochlear implants or Usher syndrome) but would keep the page history in case she gets a lot more media coverage/more media coverage found to use in a new article version--RespectCE (talk) 14:49, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, we've gotten your point, clearly. Badgering gets us nowhere. We're trying to discuss sourcing for the article. I'm still not convinced we're at GNG. She could have a brief mention in the cochlear implant article perhaps, a stand-alone article about her doesn't seem warranted. Oaktree b (talk) 15:23, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is no need for "compromise." The subject neither meets the GNG nor any other notability criteria, period. It is not a credible search term for much of anything. There's certainly no prejudice against recreation should the subject ever achieve notability, but it's not as if there's much prospect of that. Ravenswing 20:15, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe you need to look beyond the 1-second google search results and stop pretending that the PRINT sources that are more detailed don't exist.--RespectCE (talk) 14:58, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I'm not convinced that this article meets the requirements laid out in the general notability guidelines. Particularly, most of the provided sources are tangentially related at best (we require significant coverage to establish notability). Accordingly, given that the subject does not want an article about herself here, we should delete this page (see WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE) since she is of very marginal notability at best. Furthermore, I've lost a lot of good faith in the author—they admit to retaliating against Rachel's attempt to delete the article about herself and call it "vandalism" in blatant disregard for WP:BLP. They only reverted the mass addition of content when Kerri9494 (talk · contribs) correctly pointed out that it was mostly sourced to interviews and other primary sources.

Delete: Yes, I get that the article creator is intensely (if not obsessively) focused on the subject and her family -- also creating an article on her father -- but their rush to create one- and two-sentence sub-stubs [26] hasn't apparently included the knowledge to write sound BLP articles. This particular one is signally short of reliable, independent, third party sources that actually provide significant coverage -- as opposed to casual mentions, namedrops and interviews -- to the subject, nor is seeking to cover up the lack by bludgeoning and filibustering, and revenge stunts against the nom, a good look. I concur with other editors that RespectCE needs to slow their roll dramatically if a trip to ANI and a potential block for WP:NOTHERE is to be avoided. Ravenswing 20:07, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- I would like to point out that most members of the National Academy of Medicine already have Wikipedia articles - it's not my fault he's already been namedropped across Wikipedia. As for my stubs, yes, I have written other biographies that I intend to expand in the future for Wiki Women in Red, but seeing as none are subject to attention for other editors of any kind/never been blanked, I've put them on the backburner for now (Striesand effect). If anyone blanked the article about Yevgeniya Dolinyuk or Agrafena Nilova I would drop everything and focus on those ones. And please keep in mind that the %-stubs-of-pages-created does not accuratly reflect overall contributions to Wikipedia like expanding existing stubs.--RespectCE (talk) 20:19, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  That would come off better had your contribution history demonstrated you'd significantly expanded more existing stubs than in creating single-sentence sub-stubs of your own. That being said, do you get that this extreme defensiveness, jumping on almost each comment anyone makes, is unacceptable? You do not own these articles, and claiming that actions taken "against" them "disrespect" you to the degree of compelling you to strike back just reinforces the impression that you are a poor fit for a collaborative, consensus encyclopedia such as Wikipedia. So far, the unanimous consensus (from other than yourself, of course) is that this subject does not meet notability standards, and the blowback from the Streisand effect you keep citing is that we're likely to closely examine your contribution history to see if your judgment is as badly wrong elsewhere. Ravenswing 05:17, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - I reserve the right to reply when people deeply insult my edit history. Positiveness of contributions is not just measured by the number of articles expanded, but how much content by bytes is added, and I just recently have significantly expanded the Cochlear Ltd article (returning info that a previous COI editor removed, BTW) and am now working on a mega-rewrite of the MED-EL article (which has also been butchered by COI sockpuppets to be a corporate puff piece). Please stop attacking me and making this personal. Every single article I've created will not remain a stub. I have never claimed ownership of articles. If people didn't try to make this about me so much I wouldn't be taking the time to reply to defend my character.--RespectCE (talk) 13:08, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry, but someone who responds to an AfD nomination with "Stop lying" and a revenge sockpuppet filing does not get to be huffy about charges that he is acting in bad faith. You made this very personal with your first response here, you compounded it by your bludgeoning, and your readiness to declare yourself insulted and disrespected compounds it further. Ravenswing 14:12, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - Falsely accusing me of maliciously "doxxing" someone by publishing already public information in the Wikipedia article is a clear cut lie (writing a Wikipedia article using already published information is by definition not doxxing). Any reasonable person can understand that anyone would be enraged to be accused of that. Furthermore, the sockpuppet filing is not "revenge" for filing a deletion nomination, but an step taken to alert the proper authorities here that an account that just because active again but lacks basic understanding of wikipedia works (ex, posting on my userpage, not signing posts) is engaged in a remarkable similar editing pattern and identical pursuit to an IP that recently edit-warred in the same article and also lacked understanding of wikipedia protocals. The NOMINATOR made this very personal by throwing disgusting accusations at me first, and you continue to make this personal by insulting my edit history for writing stubs I haven't yet gotten to expanding (I am somewhat new here). Other commentators have been able to express their delete votes WITHOUT going ad hominem like you.--RespectCE (talk)
Delete Judging how this person isn't really notable, how the creator of the article referred to her as a "controversial figure in deaf+Deaf community" in the page creation summary, as well as how they insulting her to her face, this seems to be a person that the creator dislikes and created this as an attack page disguised as a general article. Regardless of whether it possibly is or is not an attack page, I don't see how this person would be notable. The creator has claimed in this discussion that other articles of similar subjects exist, but maybe the case is that this article as well as said others shouldn't. Waddles 🗩 🖉 23:20, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- I did NOT create this page as an attack page. There is nothing in the text that can be construed as that. I had no idea that she didn't want a wiki article at the time I published it - in fact I was certain that she would be delighted and asked her to donate a photo to Commons for it. I don't see how mentioning that someone faced a fair deal of difficulties in life but still excelled in school and landed a volunteer position in the Peace Corps is an attack. I was deeply angered by the repeat unilateral IP blanking of the page as it was completely disrespectful to my efforts as a wikipedia editor. And as a matter of general good practice, people who are concerned about their privacy are best off setting their social media account settings to "private" and not publishing their IP address via IP edits. And anyone who is active in editing articles about deaf/Deaf matters KNOWS that the manualism vs oralism debate is still alive and well, so anyone who makes statements strongly siding with "team manualism" or "team oralism" is going to be a subject of controversy.--RespectCE (talk) 23:46, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge or Keep but stubbify (see comment below) ~~Delete~~ - I agree with others that, irrespective of the motivations or surrounding context, the subject seems not to meet [[[WP:GNG]]. If the article is to be kept, I would suggest the most productive next step in this discussion would be the identification of three independent, reliable sources with significant coverage of the subject. That would better focus the notability discussion on specific sources, rather than the passing mentions currently cited in the article. Suriname0 (talk) 14:34, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- I reviewed the three provided sources. I was not able to access Audecibel online or identify any offline repository accessible to me; thus, I can't verify its contents either way. But, on the basis of the two other sources, this seems like a case where the subject is notable (WP:GNG is met, although with fairly weak sources; two were published while she was a child, and the other is a promotional profile with unclear editorial oversight) but the subject is not a public figure. Thus, extraneous information in the article should be removed, following the guidance to "include only material relevant to the person's notability, focusing on high-quality secondary sources." Based on the available sources, it seems a paragraph at most is supportable. And, from an editorial perspective, I agree with others suggestions that this non-public figure ought to be discussed in other articles rather than given a stand-alone article for which quality sources are minimally available. Finally, I'm including here an excerpt from Wired for Sound, which may be helpful to others because I found it difficult to track down. 7 paragraphs are included about the family and the author's first person experience meeting them. Here's a representative excerpt:
  The oldest child, Rachel, was born in 1987 with a severe-to-profound hearing loss, which became total by the time she was eighteen months old. .... Rachel’s speech was fairly clear, and she seemed to be well integrated socially with the hearing children I saw her playing with. Her mother told me she can chat on the phone with her friends with little difficulty. Rachel attends a regular school, in a class of hearing children, where the results of her language tests are age appropriate or better in all areas but vocabulary and auditory sequential memory.

Comment - 3 independent reliable sources with significant coverage as cited in the article: The Wired for Sound book (3 pages); Audecibel Volume 43 (3 pages), Moment Magazine (article).--RespectCE (talk) 15:36, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The Audecibel magazine source is not fully accessible through GBooks, but the preview for the one page cited in the article includes, "Six - year - old Rachel Chaikof of Atlanta, Georgia is Child of the Year for the 1994 campaign." Similarly, through GBooks, the Wired for Sound source appears to be a brief mention on one page, with her mother talking about her as a child. The Moment magazine source is a seven-graf article with multiple quotes from her at age 30, and her family is also discussed in the article. While there is some secondary context, this is only partial support for WP:BASIC notability. The WP:REFCLUTTER stacked at the end of each section makes it challenging to assess the significance of coverage in the sources, but it appears there are brief mentions, interviews/quotes, sometimes related to promotion of her family's nonprofit (e.g. (JTA, Wicked Local). In reviewing sources, I am not finding support for what appears to be the basic assertions of notability in the article, i.e. that she is an advocate (the section labeled advocacy in the article appears to be WP:PROMO for Cochlear Limited, an article that the creator of this article happens to have substantially contributed to, e.g. [27]), or that "she was hailed in oralist circles as a cochlear implant success story". Beccaynr (talk) 19:08, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Beccaynr: I have no preferences for any CI company. In fact, I RETURNED information about Cochlear Limited violating anti-kickback laws that was removed by previous editors that obviously had COIs. I also wrote the article for Advanced Bionics, the main competitor of Cochlear Ltd, and some of the smaller CI companies like Nurotron which broke the monopoly Cochlear Ltd had in China. And as a matter of fact, I am currently working on a full rewrite of the article about MED-EL, the other "big three" cochlear implant company (The big three being Cochlear, Advanced Bionics, and MED-EL). I have also appealed on the internet to ask people to donate photos of CIs under free licenses permitted by Wikipedia, and it's quote unfortunate that we (Wikipedia) haven't gotten any good photos of the obsolete MED-EL and Advanced Bionics body-worn processors. My edits are in no way limited to things related to Cochlear Ltd and if you took a GOOD look at my edit history I'm sure you would realize that. Also, as far as I am aware, there is no rule requiring sources in Wikipedia articles to be fully available on the internet.--RespectCE (talk) 19:29, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. I also put in the information about the 1995 Nucleus 22 recalls in the Cochlear Ltd article. (further evidence of my work being to provide thorough information about CI-related topics, not to puff any particular brand.--RespectCE (talk) 19:36, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

P.P.S. I just mega-expanded the MED-EL article, you can see it for yourself. I would write a wikipedia article about someone with a MED-EL implant if I could but since they have never had a monopoly (unlike another company, not naming names), there's quite a bit less people with them and therefore I don't know of anyone with one who is even half as famous as Chaikof. So there's that.--RespectCE (talk) 00:48, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Significant coverage" does not mean sources which namedrop the subject. It means that the source "addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content." This should not be so hard a notion to grasp. Ravenswing 03:55, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Over a dozen pages of content about her in the Walk in my Shoes book and full-length feature articles in Moment and Weekly are hardly just "namedropping". I'm patently insulted that you think I don't already know the difference, as I have already explained that the article contains "backbone" sources with large amounts of detailed information going through multiple pages (ie, print books) and "extras"/supplemental sources that might have an extra fact or two or an update.--RespectCE (talk) 13:42, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Just added a citation to a Jewish Advocate December 2016 article that biographed her in detail. But I guess you'll shrug it off as just another "name drop".--RespectCE (talk) 22:03, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No, I'll shrug it off as a weekly local paper, the same way your Walk In My Shoes book is from a self-published outfit: "After self-publishing her own novels, Jenny Hudson decided to start up Merrimack Media in 2008 to help authors get the editing, design, and promotional services they need to make their self-published books a success." These repeated attempts at pushing shoddy sources at us, combined with your combative behavior, has long since gotten tiresome. Classic case of the corollary to Ravenswing's First Law. Ravenswing 17:47, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't know Merrimack Media was self-publishing, but there's absolutely no ban on using weekly regional publications (Boston isn't exactly bumblefuck Idaho). And I would appreciate you dropping YOUR combative, disrespectful, and hostile attitude. Oh, and I checked your article stats, and you seem to have published your fair share of stubs and start-length articles to, so I really think you should apologize your your past remarks regarding me. I don't know about you, but almost all my stubs are topics that match corresponding longer articles in multiple other languages, and I have every intention of finishing them once I get a chance to do another Library of Congress trip to view some of the publications I want to cite. So start showing me a little respect. We are all volunteers here, contributing our precious time to producing articles. Maybe you think spatting upon my contributions will drive me away, but it won't. In fact, in sharp contrast to me, your contributions over the past few days have almost EXCLUSIVELY been on this page, which shows that you are not willing to offer much to Wikipedia besides starting flamewars in AFDs and pouting on ANI boards.--RespectCE (talk) 18:20, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Of my last twenty article creations (other than redirects, of course), only one is a short stub. Of your last twenty, fourteen are two sentences or less, including such informative articles as "Lidiya Pavlovna Ivanova (Russian: Лидия Павловна Иванова; 17 March [O.S. 4 March] 1915 — 18 May 1979) was a Soviet milkmaid foreman who was twice awarded the title Hero of Socialist Labour for record milk yields from her cows" and "Kseniya Kupriyanovna Petukhova (Russian: Ксения Куприяновна Петухова; 16 January [O.S. 3 January] 1909 — 28 August 1977) was a caretaker of calves on a kolkhoz who was twice awarded the title Hero of Socialist Labour for her work." (Otherwise, none of us are soothsayers, and can only go on your actions, instead of trying to divine your intent regarding why you'd create at one or two sentences when there are already extensive articles -- and several extensively sourced -- for the same on the Russian Wikipedia available to be mined.) I admit that otherwise I've had a light year; only around 500 of my nearly 30,000 mainspace edits have come in the last six months. Ravenswing 17:37, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I think the second prong of WP:N also applies, because this article appears constructed with poorly-sourced WP:INDISCRIMINATE detail, including a lot of WP:TMI personal medical information related to when she was a minor, which also raises WP:BLPPRIVACY concerns. There is also seemingly related WP:PROMO, both for cochlear implants generally and a specific company, as well as multiple sources promoting her family's nonprofit organization. In addition, I think WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE should also support deletion based on this discussion, because she appears to be a relatively unknown, non-public figure.

- P.S. I can't help but laugh over the fact that I am literally being personally attacked from opposite perspectives: some editors have accused me of creating this article as an "attack page" (bit laughable since I made a point of mentioning various honors the subject received) and from the other side it's been accused of being "promotional" because I mentioned the brand of implant (of course, I also mentioned it failing twice in a year) in question she has (which is publicly available information), mentioned the charity she family started to search for a cure for Usher 1F (hard to fathom anyone being opposed for creating a cure for a debilitating disease that causes poor balance AND blind-deafness), all because I expanded the article about the largest cochlear implant company (in the process of which, I added recall info that was not previously in the article and restored information about the company being fined for bribery that was removed by past editors). This is getting to the point of absurdity, with a huge bandwagon effect, of lazy editors jump the "delete" bandwagon before bothering to seek out the most important sources in the article!--RespectCE (talk) 00:17, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  You respond to each and every post here. Just state your case and let it go, this isn't a personal attack. We're here to judge the quality of the sources to see if the article is justified.

  My link to the Pulling a rabbit out of a hat essay specifically notes that in good faith, an editor may synthesize information to support a conclusion not otherwise reported by independent and reliable secondary sources. For example, there do not appear to be sources referring to the subject as an icon, advocate, or famous - this appears to be a conclusion reached by connecting various sources that report details such as a promotional appearance on a poster as a child, a promotional speech at a corporate function, or being quoted while promoting her family's nonprofit organization.
  
  Stacking references at the end of each section, instead of citing each sentence to help show where the information is from and the depth of information from each source, also contributes to the appearance of synthesis. It is a further concern to describe the subject as 'controversial' and then seem to focus with undue weight on aspects of her childhood that may be considered controversial, particularly when more recent sources do not mention this part of her biography, and instead seem to focus on promoting her family's nonprofit organization. My point is that in an effort to create interesting and useful content for the encyclopedia, there appears to have been a misapplication of a policy, and if the synthesis is discounted, there appears to be insufficient support for an article at this time.

LaQuan McGowan[edit]

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

LaQuan McGowan

American football player who does not satisfy general notability or sports notability. The subject did not satisfy the old version of gridiron football notability, which has been dropped, because it does not appear that he played professionally.

There was a draft in draft space, which was then copy-pasted into article space, and the draft was blanked, but the draft has now been restored. A history merge has been requested for this version in article space.

The text of this article says nothing about significant coverage by independent sources. A review of the references shows that the first two are a database entry and a YouTube page and so are not significant or secondary. The third is an article in an arena football e-magazine, which is not independent because it is promoting arena football (and there is no record that he played). The fourth reference is a 404 error.

Number	Reference	Remarks	Independent	Significant	Reliable	Secondary
1	espn.com	A database entry on college players	Yes	No	Yes	No
2	Youtube	Discussion on Youtube	Yes	No	No	No
3	arenafootballtalk.com	Story about signing	No, because electronic magazine is about arena football	Yes	Yes	No
4	carolinacobras.com	Has 404 error	No	No	No

There is a draft. The draft can be left standing. He might play professionally and be covered by the hometown daily newspaper. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:05, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

National Shrine of Ina Poon Bato[edit]

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

I'm doubtful that this shrine has sufficient notability, based on third-party independent sources, to warrant its own page. Currently the article only has two unique citations, both directly related to the Apostolic Catholic Church (Philippines). There are passing mentions of the shrine in two Manila Times articles, but I don't think this satisfies the notability criteria per WP:NBUILD. For any unique information here, I would recommend that it be Merged into Apostolic Catholic Church (Philippines). FyzixFighter (talk) 23:03, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, how can I vote keep? Ploreky (talk) 23:43, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, I see no reason for Deletion for this article. Why? as it is stated in WP:NBUILD, Third party sources are only to prove its notability and most of all verifiability, and as you said, you already founded 1, so there's no reason to delete it because you've already verified it. Next, if you think these aren't enough to establish notability, then I can give these links National Shrine of Ina Poon Bato, Heyplace churches, The milagrosans, pandurog ng bato mula sa hongkong, etc. I think atleast these links should verify the church. Now, if you think this article should be deleted because it only has 1 independent source, then I will say 1 source is better than nothing, In my experience on wikipedia, I've handled many articles that are not, in any way, quite notable, yet wikipedia allows it. I've edited many church less notable than this church like: Church of the Good Shepherd (Raquette Lake, New York), St John's Parish Church, South Hornchurch, Bel Air Church. Now, even though these articles lack 3rd sources, why did wikipedia allow it? It's because it's verified, that is what's important.

If we will follow your logic and will try to delete this article just because it doesn't have more than 1 independent source, then you must also delete these articles: INC Central Temple, Iglesia Filipina Independiente National Cathedral, ADD Convention Center etc. Because these articles doesn't even have 1 independent article within it. And thus, also doesn't have notability.

Why is it also a need to verify its notability? Isn't it common sense? That a headquarter of a notable denomination is also indeed notable? As stated in Wikipedia:NBUILD: buildings "may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance". Now, what do you think is this shrine is? This shrine is of Social and Architectural importance, no proofs needed, only common sense. Since this is a headquarters, it has Social and Architectural importance. Ploreky (talk) 00:11, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The next clause in the part you quoted from WP:NBUILD tells how the notability it describes is determined - by "significant in-depth coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability." None of the links you have provided satisfy this. The only independent, reliable source you've mentioned appears to be the Manila Times articles but they do not provide in-depth coverage. Everything else is either a WP:SPS or does not satisfy WP:RS. That other articles like this exist is insufficient rationale (see WP:OTHERSTUFF). --FyzixFighter (talk) 03:37, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you get it Sir, WP:OTHERSTUFF is different from what I am saying. My reason is different from opinion. I'm going to ask, what are you trying to say? Are you trying to say that the National Shrine, with even independent articles, are LESS notable than the ones that doesn't have it? Where's the logic in that.

By sending me WP:OTHERSTUFF, your basically just telling me:

"Shut up, I do what I want to do, I don't care if the National Shrine is more notable than the other churches, if I want to delete it, I'm gonna delete it, I don't care about the other churches that doesn't show notability or those that are even less notable than this church I'll just let them go. And if you're gonna be against it, I'll just show that I'm the victim and you're the disruptor, that way, I can manipulate others so that I can do anything"

That's what you're basically trying to tell me right? or atleast that's what I think.

As the original maker of the NSIPB, I'll allow you to delete, or atleast merge this article into the denomination of it, as long as you do the same to Th es e articles as well, because it will be prejudistic if you just remove this only one article when all these articles I gave you denies WP:NBUILD. But, if you do not agree, and you only want to delete this specific article, then, I'll just fight for my basis until an admin hears us out. Ploreky (talk) 16:09, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No, that is not what I'm telling you. You might also do well to familiarize yourself with WP:AGF, WP:OWN, and WP:CIVIL. Especially with the latter since you're establishing a pattern of interaction with those you disagree with that will likely lead to WP:ANI. --FyzixFighter (talk) 23:14, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The first is a blog and doesn't actually talk about the shrine in question. The 2nd and 3rd links are two directory-type websites - they are neither reliable sources nor provide any coverage besides that it exists. The 4th and 5th links are a reliable source but only provide passing mention, not in-depth coverage. And the 6th and 7th link are from the ACC and therefore not independent. None of which satisfy WP:NBUILD. --FyzixFighter (talk) 12:23, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sir, are you really insisting that??? Holy frick, First of all, what is wikipedia? It isn't just a website that you can just delete the articles you don't want? No matter how many links I give you, as long as you're not open-minded to it, you will never ever accept it. This article will improve wikipedia, Demands on an article about the Apostolic Catholic Church's Headquarters are increasing, so, I already gave my links, I already reasoned reasonably, This article is already commonsensically notable, that's why, if you still can't accept it, F*** you._{In case you get it wrong, it's frick}

First of all, how can you tell that the 1st link I give you does not pertain to the Shrine??? how? It is already stated there that it is already the shrine that the Church owns. Next, I'm actually wondering, How tf can you actually just throw/disregard the Refs I gave you just like that??? I can't even think its humanely possible, hahahahaha. I mean, you just literally throwed to the trash all of the links I gave you. What the hell.

I'm sorry if I'm being a mastodon. I just can't help it. You're disregarding our reasoning ang just listening to your ego. Hck your even questioning a user who have been an admin for 16 years! Mr.@Necrothesp years as being an admin may even be older than you. "None of which satisfy WP:NBUILD". Satisfy NBUILD or satisfy you? Ploreky (talk) 14:37, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Based on the post title and text, the first link (to a "Discover Walks Blog" post) is about the EDSA Shrine, which is a different and distinct building. It's unfortunate that they got their photo captions wrong, but another example why blog posts do not generally meet WP:RS. --FyzixFighter (talk) 23:14, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, none of the sources are useful here. Was it discussed in local media at length or any article confirming the history of the place? Those would help notability. Oaktree b (talk) 00:27, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Can you point me to the policy or discussion that established that cathedrals are generally considered notable? WP:GNG still requires significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Which sources do you feel satisfy this? --FyzixFighter (talk) 12:35, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is about as close to it as we get [28], so basically we need to meet GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 02:26, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I think this article could be improved with sources about "Our lady of Ina Poon Bato", which is the focus of the shrine: e.g. 1. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 11:24, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would argue then that a Our Lady of Ina Poonbato might deserve an article then merge relevant information from this article to that. However, notability is usually not inherited. --FyzixFighter (talk) 13:36, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Meets WP:NBUILD with sources presented by Ploreky. They're reliable adn in-depth enough IMV. SBKSPP (talk) 01:03, 8 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Not going to !vote (neither "Keep", "Merge to Apostolic Catholic Church (Philippines)" nor "Delete" for failing the notability criteria of standards, specifically WP:NBUILD), but based on the current eight reference sources that are in the nominated page as of this writing, seven sources are came from the same website and the sole source was from Facebook (which is clearly NOT a source per WP:RS/P through WP:RSPFB and WP:EL/P through WP:FACEBOOK). In these findings, the article itself doesn't match and meet the Wikipedia policies and guidelines including per WP:SIGCOV as well as its notability stands. CruzRamiss2002 (talk) 10:58, 8 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I'm going to be honest, I am confused by the comments saying that the links provided by Ploreky represent significant in-depth coverage by reliable, third-party sources, thus satisfying WP:NBUILD. My own assessment of the links is as follows:

Placedigger - National Shrine of Ina Poon Bato - Yellowbook equivalent listing, passing mention and not a reliable source
HeyPlaces - National Shrine of Ina Poon Bato - another Yellowbook equivalent listing, passing mention, potentially user-generated and not a reliable source
THE MILAGROSANS - Ang Pambansang Dambana ng Ina Poon Bato - appears to be a blog by the ACC, only passing mention, wordpress site - not a reliable source, not independent
AMCEquip. - passing mention, looks like it might be a content farm?
Discover Walks Blog - Top 10 Little Known Facts About EDSA Shrine - blogpost is about the EDSA Shrine not the NSIPB
AllEvents page - passing mention, user-generated content, not a reliable source
Onsono - National Shrine of Ina Poon Bato - another Yellowbook/advertising equivalent listing, passing mention, not a reliable source
The Manila Times - Apostolic church patriarch and founding bishop - finally, something that qualifies as a reliable source... but only passing mention of NSIPB
The Manila Times - National and local officials lead Gawad San Juan Florentino - a reliable source... but only passing mention of NSIPB
ACC-Ingkon "Block Rosary Crusaders" - ACC affiliated blog, not independent
[29] - ACC published memo, not independent
Abante Tonite - ACC Mutya ng Pasko 2019 kinoronahan - ~~a reliable source~~ tabloid... but only passing mention of NSIPB

I don't see any of the links qualify as reliable, in-depth, and independent. For those who do think Ploreky's links satisfy NBUILD, where is my assessment incorrect? --FyzixFighter (talk) 05:52, 9 October 2022 (UTC) correcting based on comment by Lenticel below. --FyzixFighter (talk) 03:11, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I would like to tell again, as stated in WP:GNG, you already proved it's notability. As you said, there is already atleast 3 independent sources. And that is more than enough to prove its notability, and the rest are just for verifications that the subject really exists.

As I will say again, as it is stated in WP:NBUILD buildings, like the NSIPB, may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance as it is stated in this sentence, this alone should be enough to prove its notability as it is a national Headquarters of a notable denomination. Meaning, all of the members of this denomination already knows this shrine, hence, it is notable. Ploreky (talk) 02:42, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You keep forgetting the subsequent requirement listed in WP:NBUILD - "but they require significant in-depth coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability" (emphasis mine). To establish notability of a historically, socially, economically, or architecturally important building we need sources that are 1) in-depth coverage, 2) reliable, and 3) independent. Which of the sources provided satisfies all three? --FyzixFighter (talk) 03:01, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, none of these are useful for this article. We need sources that talk about the place, not articles that simply mention it in relation to something else. Oaktree b (talk) 00:29, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Apostolic Catholic Church (Philippines). I only found one of the references stated above as a plausible reference. I've added other external sources to the parent article to improve its quality. Anyways, FyzixFighter's assessment are mostly correct except Abante Tonite is a tabloid and is probably not the best source out there. --Lenticel ^(talk) 01:47, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Apostolic Catholic Church (Philippines). There is not enough here for an article. There is an important difference between sources that mention a shrine and those that provide significant coverage.
