Extended content

WH was for three years an extremely efficient content warrior at nlwiki. He used at least two accounts to !vote and had a team of like-minded folks who supported each other's content wars. Eventually he was blocked for sockpuppetry.[1] Approximately the same time, at work, he also made some bad decisions and was fired from a senior public position. It wasn't criminal so they had to buy him out. This was well covered in the press. Nothing of this case and his main career appears in this WP:COI article, nor does one case of alleged plagiarism that also drew attention. While he technically passes the WP:GNG, WH is not very important, the article is highly selective, and it is all too minor to dig into. His publishing house or his publishing from his house clearly fails the WP:GNG and can be deleted. gidonb (talk) 02:10, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Per Nom, WP:REFBOMB, WP:PROVEIT, and Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons. The first reference, "Lost confidence in library director", is about a "dysfunctional general manager", the second a dead link, as well as the third. This does not advance any notability, especially for a BLP. This leaves the "External links", which would be improper sourcing. A university published thesis for a doctorate, and the rest of the collection just does not reach any minimum bar of notability. As a supposed "expert" on Facism where is the evidence? The final thorn in the bush is that all three references point to the 2008 contentious material concerning the Nijmegen library conflict of trust, also left dangling, which raises NPOV issues. -- Otr500 (talk) 02:47, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Believe this fails WP:NBASE. Clearly written by someone with personal connection to him, Holmes never played in the Negro major leagues, doesn't have a profile James Riley's Biographical Encyclopedia of the Negro Baseball Leagues even though it was previously sourced in the article. No information/stats on Seamheads or Baseball-Reference. The Boston Globe write up, the article's main source, reads more like a person recounting his opinions of various ballplayers. Found another Boston Globe article calling the Boston Royal Giants a semi-pro team during this time. I don't see a mention of him in the other source, Shades of Glory. Also didn't see anything turn up in Newspapers.com for Massachusetts or Pennsylvania from 1928 to 1945. Penale52 (talk) 17:14, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: per nom, WP:GNG and WP:NOTMEMORIAL. Just looked at those articles, and went around the track at Baseball-Reference, which has more on the Negro Leagues than anyplace else. Nothing, either under "Herbert Holmes" or "Chink Holmes." He's not listed on the Negro Leagues Players Association site. Just too many unverified claims ... what takes the prize is the claim that Holmes played for the Philadelphia Giants, which folded six years before he was born. From what I can see, the sole source asserting that Holmes played in the Negro big leagues is his own fact-check-free interview. Ravenswing 19:13, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Drake & Josh#Online videos - Its certainly a plausible search term and shouldn't be deleted, but the section in the main Drake & Josh article is a sufficient amount of coverage based on the sources available.

There is no English-language RS coverage of this person. Looking at his Russian Wikipedia page, there are no RS cited there either, except for press release style stories. Unless, significant coverage can be demonstrated in non-English independent reliable sources, this page should be deleted.

  • Delete per Nom. This BLP, required to be held to higher sourcing standards, has one reference, some supposed "memorandum" source, and twelve "External links", in violation of WP:ELPOINTS #3, What Wikipedia is not, and is just a glorified "resume". The entire '"Career" section is unsourced against policies and guidelines. The subject fails WP:NBIO so there are notability issues. -- Otr500 (talk) 22:04, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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

This article relies entirely on a Q&A in a blog and a routine transfer announcement and so notability is not demonstrated. I have conducted a WP:BEFORE search through Google News and through DDG and was unable to find any significant coverage in the player's native language.

No evidence can be found to suggest that Amirkhanlou is notable enough to pass WP:GNG and hence warrant an encyclopaedia article about him. Also worth noting that futsal players don't qualify for WP:NFOOTBALL and so absolutely must demonstrate GNG. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 22:40, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Following a Google News search and Iranian source search in the player's native language, I was unable to locate even one example of significant coverage. Therefore, there is no evidence of a WP:GNG pass, as the two cited sources also fail to meet requirements. Futsal players are not eligible for any presumption of notability under WP:NFOOTBALL either and are required to pass GNG to qualify for an article.

Fails WP:GNG according to sources cited and ones found during a WP:BEFORE search. It's worth noting that WP:NFOOTBALL does not cover futsal so there is no presumption of notability that can be applied to any of his roles (the roles that he has taken in football are far too insignificant to grant automatic notability).

In 2 of the sources, it has been referred to the official website of the Iranian Football Federation. Pournia (talk) 05:14, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The two sources that you refer to FFIRI 1 and FFIRI 2 do not show any significant coverage of him whatsoever. The sources being authoritative is not a valid criterion. Sources need to do more than just confirm that the man exists and that he has a job. If anything, it would also be better if coverage came from organisations not directly associated with Zandipour as well. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 08:40, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Professor Mayo wrote one of the most cited articles about Byelorussian language: Mayo, Peter J. "The alphabet and orthography of Byelorussian in the 20th century." The Journal of Byelorussian Studies 4.1 (1977): 28-48. The University of Sheffield prize for Russian was renamed after him. The article doesn't mention his research work about the Ukrainian language. Dr.KBAHT (talk) 22:20, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. I think that the editorship of the Journal of Belarusian Studies passes WP:NPROF C8. Verification that he held it at least briefly is here [3]. Weak because the journal went on hiatus for 25 years, apparently immediately after the subject's editorship, which might suggest that it is debatable whether the journal is/was "well-established." Google Scholar may not cover very well the period in which Mayo was mainly active, and his common name makes it harder to search.

  • AMK152, campaign coverage is essentially worthless for establishing notability. I've been through this in many, many AfDs. WP:NPOL requires that people be elected to office, not merely candidates. And as all candidates can show some campaign coverage, that doesn't help get her over WP:BASIC. There needs to be either an unusually large amount of coverage about her campaign, or sources establishing her professional notability independent of the campaign. She would certainly become notable if she wins her election, but people who were merely candidates tend to see their notoriety fade very quickly after losing. ― Tartan357 Talk 17:18, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to 2021 New York City mayoral election#Libertarian Party. Tartan357 and others have argued convincingly that the subject doesn't presently meet Wikipedia's notability standards. There is, however, a clear potential for the subject to meet these standards at a future time. For the time being, her name should at least be in WP's search engine. Her listing on the New York mayoral election page as a ballot-qualified candidate seems like an appropriate target for a redirect. It also might be a good idea to move the content back to Draft:Stacey Prussman so the article can be further developed and prepared to be moved to mainspace if and when consensus holds that it passes the notability standards.Sal2100 (talk) 19:09, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Assistant prof with h index of 11. Had some media attention for metallic hydrogen and was co-author of a paper with >350 cites back in 2017.

  • Delete. I am not seeing evidence of meeting NPROF C1, either through straight citations or through some subjective citation-independent concept of "impact". Media attention is on the result, not the author, and anyway would qualify for BLP1E unless there was sustained interest and significant attribution of the result to him. JoelleJay (talk) 18:20, 29 June 2021 (UTC).[reply]
  • Keep. I agree that he does not pass C1, his citations and scores are too low and not impactful enough. It appears he did recently win an NSF career award but I do not believe this counts for C2 despite some of its prestige since it's more a grant to study something. However, it does have press coverage to some extent. His group website does a good job at catalog press on him and related to his research. I was able to rather easily find several news articles interviewing him, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and there are others. Most are in science magazines but he's been mentioned and interviewed in Vice and Business Insider which strikes me as adding up to pass WP:GNG when taken with his research activity. This also tips the balance in my view that he passes WP:PROF C7. While his research is currently of lower impact, he is studying a challenging and important field and seems to having an impact anyway. I was on the fence between weak keep and keep, but ultimately went to keep because of numerous small factors that add up. If this isn't kept I am almost certain it will be remade in several years and is a case of WP:TOOSOON Side note; metallic hydrogen is really neat. --Tautomers(T C) 21:09, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comments Would the interviews not count as primary sources though, and not be independant? And I'm not sure if something like https://time.com/collection/time100-next-2021/5937727/ranga-dias/ is sufficient to count as significant coverage of him as a person. There might be a case for combining multiple items though to show notability... -Kj cheetham (talk) 21:23, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment That is my feeling on the matter, that there are numerous interviews and it seems like he's making a concerted effort into involving himself in commentary/conversation on his field of study, and all taken together makes it seem like he's having a noteworthy impact. I am only one opinion on this though. --Tautomers(T C) 23:16, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    • The coverage seems pretty much standard for flashy inventions in the superconductor world. We get excitement every time they raise the temperature a few degrees, with media attention increasing dramatically if the researchers are trying to attract funders for their startups. I don't think it is sustained enough to demonstrate major impact on the field, especially since it's so impractical right now -- it's an important stepping stone, but not necessarily one that will produce extraordinary renown. It should also be noted that he co-led the research according to the Vice article. The handful of interviews is not enough for C7, since most of them relate directly to his research (not him) and are not probing his general expertise in the subject. JoelleJay (talk) 21:13, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, lacks significant coverage about the individual - the only coverage appears as part of a group not as an individual.

    • Bejnar, the opposite is true for interviews: they can be used sparingly for verification, but cannot be used for notability considerations because they are primary and not independent of the subject. Also, academics have by far the easiest path to WP notability (no other guideline has automatic passes, much less passes without any secondary coverage at all, and scholars can always get in through GNG anyway). JoelleJay (talk) 21:53, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Interviews are often partially independent, namely the interviewer and their organization, although a lot of what is said by the interviewee cannot be used for verification, the types of questions asked and the scope of the interview, as well as any introduction by the interviewer can all go towards coverage, and the depth of coverage. --Bejnar (talk) 02:16, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - A very clear pass of WP:NMOTORSPORT (competed in World Championship events, competed at Le Mans, including winning in class and the Index of Performance). There would be more contemporary sources, especially in French, but I was able to find enough coverage in some books to improve the article (which I will do when I have the time though I don't normally edit biographies), using for example Gregor Grant's Formula 2, Quentin Spuring's Le Mans 1949-59 and Peter Higham's Formula 1 Car by Car 1950-59. Basic biographic information can be verified by the motorsport magazine database (I'll add this to the article). I also found some substantial coverage of him online here and here(French) though I'm unsure of the reliability of these sources. A7V2 (talk) 03:57, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

it's a mess, rambling OR essay. The term - as coined by Schaeffer - is for the most part associated with musique concrete, best we redirect to a single paragraph in the musique concrete article instead. Acousmana 13:25, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Music-related deletion discussions. Acousmana 13:25, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Question: The article has sources: 8 citations. How is it rambling? How is it essay like? What's the point of making blank assertions that articles need to be deleted without explaining the reasons? People often tell me to respect the process, and the guidelines urge you to explain rather than simply assert, to prove rather than postulate. Hyacinth (talk) 19:33, 7 July 2021 (UTC) What are the personal feelings or opinions inappropriately expressed in the article which includes quotes to sources with different conceptualizations rather a single truth? If there is bias, what is it towards or against? The only bias I see is that it assumes music is of value and music theory is of value to music composition, improvisation, performance, and listening. Hyacinth (talk) 00:29, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Aren't problems like article structure and number of citations more easily fixed by finding sources to cite and reorganizing the article than by deleting it and starting over with nothing? Without studying music, all the music theory related articles will all seem like random babbling using a bunch of Italian words, a weird system of notation, solfege, letters and numbers for pitches, and a tuning system based on acoustics and mathematics (semitone ratio = 2^(1/12)), but most people view the subject to be inherently subjective, being an art, so not only does it seem obscure, but it's also inherently of questionable worth. Hyacinth (talk) 00:25, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Why include the paragraph at all? Doesn't the term explain itself, and thus any definition or explanation could be considered rambling? Hyacinth (talk) 00:28, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. The first source is a kind of legal profile, not an RS. The other sources are good. It's important to note that the sources describe the Saby Foundation activities. There is little info about the subject. My opinion is that most sources are good and independent, but they are not describing the subject directly. Dr.KBAHT (talk) 22:44, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • I will try to answer all questions above. The first sourse is one of biggest informational agencies in Kazakhstan zakon.kz (can be translated as law.kz but it is not a legal sourse). Most of sources describe not only Sabi Foundation but also Tasmagambetova's activity as the founder of Sabi Foundation because she is known as a philanthropist and her activity is connected tight with the Foundation. Her activity is not only connected with her husband, also there are a lot of events where she gather resources by herself. For example, [15] (observer.com). There is a lack of English sources, off course. But there are more for Aselle Tasmagambetova. I think that it is right transliteration of her name because all foreign sources use it, and the article can be renamed according to it. Mheidegger (talk) 12:56, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for that - that does bring in a tonne of new sources [16], [17], [18]; [19], [20], [21], [22] (says she received a major Kazakh award, but is self-published source); also her linkedin page (which isn't an RS, but probably is a good indication that Aselle Tasmagambetova would be a better name for the article). Furius (talk) 22:19, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Those sources rather prove the point she isn't independently notable. In [23] there is a single namedrop in a list of patrons ("none of the evening’s patrons or patronesses—Jonathan and Somers Farkas, Aselle Tasmagambetova, Domenico Vacca and Eva Lorenzotti among them"). [24] and [25] are a regurgiated press release on Tasmagambetova and her husband Rakishev opening a school, much of the content being on Rakishev's business and philanthropy (including "In 2002 Kenges Rakishev founded the Saby Charitable Foundation together with his wife Aselle Imangalievna Tasmagambetova"). [26] reads like a press release, and covers a statement from the foundation on seal conservation. [27] is titled "The year 2020: Kenes Rakishev and Aselle Tasmagambetova presented the Saby annual report", again tying the whole thing to her husband's business, and this coverage is not independent. [28] is from the Saby foundation itself. There is little that in depth on Tasmagambetova herself, it is all activities in which she is present in the context of the philanthropy wing of the family business.--Eostrix  (🦉 hoot hoot🦉) 05:41, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • My tentative opinion would be that if the philanthropic activity of the foundation is notable, then I think she is notable, since she and not Rakishev is the President of the Saby foundation. I grant that her activities in that sphere are very closely intertwined with those of Rakishev, but that is also true of (e.g.) Bill and Melinda Gates. So, I don't think this is a case of claiming that notability is inherited... and it seems to me that it would be inappropriate therefore to merge her into Rakishev's article. But I grant that the source material that seems to be available is not great; perhaps it makes more sense to have an article on the Saby Foundation? Furius (talk) 15:08, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. There is a number of sources in English (e.g [29]) and Russian about her activities, some of them mentioned by Furius above. But I also have some concerns about history of creation of this page (and some other related pages) possibly by paid contributor(s), as well as about the sources that are mostly weak. On a balance though, I would be inclined to keep because there is a substantial non-trivial information about the person, it is mostly sourced and does show that the person is notable per WP:GNG in my opinion.

Demanding people show sources for someone where sources likely only exist offline is not the correct policy though.... Joseph2302 (talk) 08:05, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Actually it is. It’s why GNG and SPORTCRIT exist. Not to mention WP:Verifiability. Additionally, I disagree that offline sources likely exist. Many players of this era were in the background in terms of public notice. The press and public had there favorites and they got coverage.

  • Keep I see three issues with this list:
    1. As pointed out by Paul_012 and Clarityfiend, comparing ancient pyramids like the Great Pyramid of Giza and modern (roughly) pyramidal buildings like the Ryugyong Hotel is quite an apples-to-oranges comparison, and may violate WP:OR/WP:SYNTH. Considering it has such a major fundamental flaw, my first instinct about the article was that it should be deleted. But then I figured we could simply split the table in two, which I did.
    2. It does not have proper WP:LISTCRITERIA that are unambiguous, objective, and supported by reliable sources. The WP:LEAD even says Due to lack of precise criteria, the list is unranked. This is however perfectly WP:SURMOUNTABLE; I suggest that entries should meet two criteria: (1) being described by a consensus of WP:Reliable sources as a "pyramid" (i.e. not "pyramidal", "pyramid-shaped", or "in the shape of a pyramid") and (2) meeting some minimum height requirement, say 50 meters.
    3. It may or may not pass WP:NLIST. In this particular case, I'm willing to apply WP:IAR if it doesn't since it is such an obvious superlative list to have.
    I don't think these issues are best addressed by deleting the article, but by improving it. TompaDompa (talk) 09:28, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The article was created by Nlaskin who appears to be the primary author of this concept. There are long standing concerns on the talk page over this COI and promotional bias. I quote from 178.197.232.148 at the talk page As mentioned elsewhere, this theory is an ad hoc modification of quantum mechanics without any serious motivation or application. It is also the fruit of one person, which has not attracted interest or recognition in the physics community.

  • Delete all including Fractional Poisson process. This is a bit of a tricky case, since references do exist, and some of them might even qualify as independent, secondary sources. But the sheer extent of the COI means that we can't trust any of the material to be worth keeping and editing. For example, every bullet point under "Further reading" in multiple pages would have to be checked to make sure it's actually about the page topic, rather than merely using similar-sounding terminology. Every historical statement and claim of credit would have to be interrogated, and the selection of topics couldn't be taken to indicate a third-party assessment of what's interesting. (None of the "Physical applications" in Fractional Schrödinger equation are physical applications, for instance; they're all equations for the sake of equations, with one model thrown in that makes a gesture at possible relevance to an actual physical system.) I'm all for articles on niche topics, but these pages amount to using Wikipedia as a personal website. Volunteers who can work on specialized physics content are in short supply, and every minute spent cleaning up after somebody's ego is a waste of a scarce resource. In short, WP:TNT.

Hoax ??? I though the problem was that it was too simple and small or not important. You guys have a great imagination, search Greek News and you will see about the presentation of dozens of new Greek combat machines happening at this moment.

Why don't you present us with some links to news sites discussing (or even mentioning) the Hypaspist 1? Something reliable of course.

See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Skirmish at Aberdeen for another work by this same page creator. The cited source is Dyer 1908 p. 739, which simply states Sept. 20 ... Skirmish, Bayou Alabama in a list of battles of in Louisiana. Dyer 1908 p. 595 also mentions this action, but just to say Alabama Bayou, La. -- Skir. ... Sept. 20, 1864. So I have no idea where the result, location, and commanders listed in the article are coming from, as they have no support in the cited source.

This does support that there was a skirmish on Sept. 20 at Bayou Alabama, but says nothing in-depth, as its just a table. Likewise, this is just a passing mention in a list as well. This states that it was part of the Operations in the Vicinity of Morganza, but not much else. This explains it all - 225 Union cavalrymen broke up a small Confederate camp. However, it's a primary source report and can't be used for notability. Short mention here, but it's mainly just Luman L. Cadwell's Medal of Honor citation. I don't think enough has been written in non-primary sources for this minor skirmish to meet WP:GNG, even if a Medal of Honor was won in it. Hog Farm Talk 16:26, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was speedy keep. The last AfD was six weeks ago. If people think that a merge is appropriate that can be done through a merge discussion. If the feeling is that the outcome of the last AfD was incorrect, then WP:DRV is the correct place to challenge that.

Relevance? User:Rilum originally created this article on the German Wikipedia (de:Korancode), saw it deleted there multiple times and now creates it on various Wikipedias. To show this article deserves it?

  • Speedy keep Thank you Mccapra. Saying that a lot of the sources are self-published or otherwise don't meet RS is wrong. It gives the impression that the entire citations have not been looked at or examined in full by the previous speaker. --Rilum (talk)
  • Merge to Rashad Khalifa. There's some coverage, but it isn't significant due to the nature of so many of the sources either returning to the theorist or being self-published. This article has been deleted on multiple language Wikis, and has been nominated for deletion by multiple different users here on English Wikipedia, for a reason. It's fair to say that the article looks like a creation to use Wikipedia for gaining attention for a fringe theory. It's certainly a significant part of Khalifa's biography, but there isn't sufficient evidence for its significance outside of that. MezzoMezzo (talk) 14:05, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Besides the two books by Rashad Khalifa and the articles by Martin Gardner, there also seem to be three books on the code cited in https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.968.5885&rep=rep1&type=pdf - this article doesn't mention Rashad Khalifa. — Charles Stewart (talk) 17:08, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Chalst :) --Rilum (talk) 09:37, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - it's an unconvincing write-up of a dubious concept and most of the sources that exist for it highlight the topsy-turvy lingo we have where WP:V calls them reliable, however, the concept is sufficiently visible, the sourcing goes beyond what is appropriate for a section of the Rashad Khalifa article and the Martin Gardner articles show that it is possible to write both well and objectively about the topic and the text analysis article I gave is also usable. I'd nominate Trijnstel for WP:TROUT except this is her first AfD nom in 8 years: even with a no consensus result at AfD, one should normally wait at least six weeks before nominating unless there is an exceptional WP:TNT rationale: so soon after a keep close with no new information, the right thing to do is to challenge the close on WP:DRV. I found Barkeep49's close uncharacteristically weak: Eggishorn made a strong OR case that was not refuted, and the nom Hemiauchenia's case that the sourcing was too weak to justify recreation was not really disputed; no consensus or relisting would have been better options. — Charles Stewart (talk) 13:07, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @DMySon, I believe that this institution is notable. Because it is a public secondary school whose offered a value education. It is also been part of the history during the America-Philippine War in the year 1899.But sadly there's no internet source as references, because the history was only published in a paper work and magazine only.

Per WP:NOT. This probably belongs at some sister project (as I already raised on the talk page in 2009...), but which one? I don't know if Wiktionary hosts such lists. But Wikipedia is not the place for such grammatical lists. Fram (talk) 07:55, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose deletion as unsupported by any of the policies cited. Some of these arguments clearly put the cart before the horse: "I don't know if this can go in Wiktionary—delete it because it should". Well, it doesn't appear that Wiktionary hosts articles about elements of grammar. That's what Wikipedia is for. The encyclopedic part of this article is relatively short, but it doesn't become an "invalid" article either because it's short or because it has a list of things—in this case words—appended to it. "NOTADICTIONARY" would apply if this were the definition of a word. It's not. It's a description of a class of words in Latin that goes on to list some of them, and explains their significance. But even the list portion clearly isn't a collection of dictionary definitions; a short description of each word is not a definition. if you visit Wiktionary and look for these words, in some cases you might not find an entry at all, particularly for the proper nouns. In other cases you'll get much more information than is contained here. But what you won't get is an explanation of the phenomenon—that can only exist on Wikipedia. For comparison, a list like this will appear in some Latin grammars—but not in Latin dictionaries.
The editors seem to have been confused by the fact that the list consists of words used as words, and perhaps by the length; yet we have perfectly acceptable articles listing words because of their grammatical relationship or significance. For instance, the List of English prepositions easily withstood a challenge based on "NOTADICTIONARY", even though it consists primarily of a list of words. The non-definition explanations provided are roughly equivalent to the lead in this article; and while I note that the list in question doesn't explain the significance of individual words, in the case of prepositions it would be rather hard to do so without giving dictionary definitions. A list of nouns is somewhat easier to explain with brief descriptions, without any of them necessarily constituting dictionary definitions. Dictionary definitions will generally be much longer and more detailed than any of the explanations provided here, but most dictionaries don't contain exhaustive lists of the proper nouns of persons who might have biographical entries in an encyclopedia, or taxonomic classifications.
The other policy cited, "NOTINDISCRIMINATE", is rarely invoked for what it's actually for: random, irrelevant, unencyclopedic information. The policy cites four examples, none of which is remotely connected with this article:
  1. Summary-only descriptions of works. Summaries are fine, however, in the context of articles that treat a work in a more general way.
  2. Lyrics databases. Excessive quotations from works that don't explain their significance and potentially violate copyright; the full text of lengthy sources. Clearly not the case here, where nothing is being quoted and there is no copyright; the significance of the topic is explained at the beginning, and the examples provided illustrate the topic.
  3. Excessive listing of unexplained statistics. This article consists of explanation, without really containing any statistics at all.
  4. Exhaustive logs of software updates. Software updates can be perfectly encyclopedic, but should be described in third-party sources, and trimmed to a reasonable length. Since this topic doesn't concern software, or any kind of log, this clearly isn't concerned with this article.
The present article simply doesn't come within the purview of "NOTINDISCRIMINATE"; this policy seems to be invoked primarily when people think that a topic is unimportant, rather than when it fits any of the criteria listed. However, notability is not really an issue here. The relevant policy states: "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list. The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been." Any Latin grammar—and there are several notable ones—will describe the existence of first-declension masculine nouns as an exception to the general rule that first-declension nouns are usually feminine, and typically some examples will be provided (typically "agricola, nauta, pirata"). The topic of this article clearly meets the criteria for notability, although it might benefit from more citations. The fact that the list of examples is much longer than that found in Latin grammars doesn't affect its notability.
Now, it's possible that the list would benefit from some trimming, because although Wiktionary can't discuss the topic of first-declension masculine nouns, it does contain a corresponding category which appears to be much larger than the one here. But this list is apparently not exhaustive; it contains a selection, for which the significance of entries is provided in one place. The benefit for readers that cannot be obtained from a Wiktionary category is not insignificant. For instance, I would not have realized that there are several rivers and watercourses that are masculine although they belong to the first declension (most river names in Latin are second declension and obviously masculine; there are only a handful of feminine rivers, to the best of my knowledge). So it seems to me that this article might benefit from an examination of what is useful to readers, and perhaps a more thorough explanation with more citations. But there's nothing inherently wrong with the concept or the structure; none of the policies cited justify deletion. P Aculeius (talk) 13:26, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep A lot of articles like this exist. Arabic nouns and adjectives Gender_in_Dutch_grammar#Masculine_nouns Latin declension etc. Seems encyclopedic, and isn't found anywhere else. This is not a dictionary, not one article for each word that exist with a short definition only, but something else. Wikipedia is for educational content also, not just popular culture. The Wikiprojects for Latin and for Language have this AFD on their list, so hopefully they'll participate. Dream Focus 16:21, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • None of the three examples you give are comparable to this list though: those three are explanations of aspects of a language (and a much larger aspect than the one described here), not lists of all words and nouns matching said aspect. There are whole books (well, libraries probably) about "Arabic nouns and adjectives", separate from books of "Arabic nouns and adjectives" (which are, er, dictionaries). Here, we have lists of masculine Latin nouns of the 1st declension, but where are the books, texts, ... about the subject? A list of words which share a common grammatical characteristic is not the same as an article about such a characteristic. By the way, Wiktionary has this, so the information is already there. Fram (talk) 16:43, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As I said above, Latin grammars routinely discuss this particular phenomenon. There doesn't need to be a book about it; just reliable, independent sources—and it doesn't matter whether they've already been cited: the question is whether sources exist, not whether they've been cited. And the Wiktionary category provides a perfect example of why this topic can not be adequately addressed in Wiktionary. Wiktionary doesn't allow for extended discussion, or really any discussion of topics such as the usual characteristics of first declension Latin nouns, or why most are feminine and certain ones masculine. The category seems to contain many more examples than this article does; the article contains a selection which can be pruned or improved as needed; Wiktionary doesn't allow for that. And of course in the category you don't know the significance of any of the items in the list without visiting the corresponding entries; in Wikipedia it's possible to explain their significance briefly and without the length or complexity of a dictionary definition, all in one place. So in fact, comparing this article with what Wiktionary provides seems to make abundantly clear why this article should be kept. P Aculeius (talk) 23:50, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it is difficult to find sources online for it, but all the sources in the article are passing mentions or indexes showing the show/columns existed - not enough to make up "significant coverage".

  • Delete - The review in The Mary Sue appears to be the only review that appeared in a reliable, secondary source, which falls short of passing WP:NFILM. All other sources I can find are just passing mentions of the film, and nothing more. Several of the Keep arguments above are arguing that there are sources not included in the article that show notability, but none have been provided here, and I have not been able to find any myself. It could possibly be redirected to The Gamers (film)#Sequels and spin-offs where it is already mentioned, but as that article, itself, is completely absent of reliable sources as well, doing that might just be kicking the can down the road until a potential AFD for that article in the future.

Seems to be a minor diplomat without much notable history. The only sources for him that exist (I searched the Web as well as newspapers, etc) are a couple-sentence mention in a WP:MILL article saying that he delivered a letter to an Algerian foreign minister, and a liveblog from Al Jazeera that doesn't mention him by name (the ambassador to Algeria is mentioned in a long list of resignations submitted). No information about the guy seems to exist online apart from the twenty-six words in this article (which, indeed, is much shorter than the AfD nomination I'm writing for it). jp×g 05:12, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

      This is a four-page review of The Monkey Kid. The review notes: "The Monkey Kid, written and directed by Xiao-Yen Wang, is probably one of the best Chinese feature films ever made but few Americans have seen. Released in 1995 by the BeijingSan Francisco Film Group, the film “was an Official Selection at the 1995 Cannes International Film Festival and received the Grand Prize at the 1996 Aubervilliers International Children’s Film Festival, awards for Best Film and Best Director at the 1995 Danube Film Festival, Best Foreign Film at the 1995 Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival, the Young Jury Award at the 1996 International Women’s Film Festival at Créteil, and the Critic’s Prize at the Cinestival 97 at Marseille.” Despite its critical acclaim, The Monkey Kid was not available for distribution until December 2010."

      The review concludes: "The Monkey Kid is not a new film, but educators should not be afraid to use it in the classroom. It is especially helpful for illustrating the many ways in which Mao’s cult of personality dominated this era. It offers a view of the Cultural Revolution that is both compelling and entertaining. I have used the film with great success in both undergraduate and graduate classes on modern China. Students report that more than any other film about the Cultural Revolution, The Monkey Kid stays with them long after its showing in class because of the story line, the acting of the children, and the effective direction. The film always generates much discussion about class divisions, ideological education, and mass mobilization. I highly recommend the film for high school and college audiences."

      The book notes: "A low-budget, noncommercial film ($30,000), The Monkey Kid does not have the technical refinement or the authorial complexity of In the Heat of the Sun. ... It is a precocious coming-of-age story where the local bullies are mischievous little boys peeing in Thermos bottles. ... If The Monkey Kid is perhaps a little too sweet (and the music, relying on the Chinese flute 'dizi' gives it a rather exotic, Oriental flavor), then there are other renderings by women of the Cultural Revolution with more of a bite."

      The film review notes: "A neat idea gets a vigorous but incomplete workout in 'The Monkey Kid,' a loose portrait of an ankle-biter's everyday life during the depths of the Cultural Revolution that has charm to spare. Though this feather-light indie production by California-based Xiao-yen Wang, based on her own childhood in Peking, has some darker resonances for those willing to dig for them, pic represents a marketing challenge beyond cable and other broadcast outings."

      The film reviewer gave the film an A-. The film review notes: "Xiao-Yen Wang's excellent, award-winning, semiautobiographical film, The Monkey Kid, is about this climate as seen through the eyes of Wang Shiwie (Fu Di), a 9-year-old girl determined to be a kid regardless of the historical changes whirling about her. Sparked by Fu Di's performance, The Monkey Kid is a simple, yet essential film about the indomitable human spirit, and a young girl's courage to be herself in spite of a dictatorship gone mad. It should not be missed."

      The film review notes: "Variously tender and tough-minded, Xiao-Yen Wang's loosely autobiographical The Monkey Kid traces episodes in the life of a spirited nine-year-old girl growing up in the midst of the Cultural Revolution. Set in a 1970 Beijing of stark, slabby apartments, dingy side streets and doctrinaire schools, it celebrates independence and self-will, depicting how Chairman Mao's regimental reforms impacted on one child and her family."

Filmed in Beijing from January through March, 1993, with an additional day in August to shoot in the rain, the movie is set in 1970, at a time when China's 'intellectuals' had been sent to the country to 'learn from the peasants.' ... The movie, in Mandarin with English subtitles, is a production of the Beijing-San Francisco Film Group, which produced Wang's 1991 documentary, The Blank Point, which looked at transsexualism as seen through the traditional gaze of Chinese society. The Monkey Kid, Wang's first feature film, moves at a deliciously lazy pace that may seem like anathema to the slam-bash-bang formula of American moviemaking standards."

      The film review notes: "But 'The Monkey Kid' isn't just a movie about oppression. It's a tender profile of a family, and the bond between mother and daughter that transcends political and social circumstances. 'The Monkey Kid,' shot without government approval on the back streets of Beijing, screens at 7 tonight at the Ritz at the Bourse, as part of the Philadelphia Festival of World Cinema."

      The article notes: "That 'The Monkey Kid' is the more modest and conventionally structured of the two in no way detracts from its impact as a moving study of a 9-year-old girl who rebels against the crushing effects of the Cultural Revolution by being a bad girl. ... Tacitly encouraged by her mother, Fu Di devises ways of sliding out from under the death grip of the Revolution that will make you want to cheer."

      The article notes: "The Monkey Kid in Mandarin with English subtitles, is an autobiographical film about 9-year-old Shi-Wei and her older sister, who care for themselves while their parents, branded as intellectuals during the Cultural Revolution, are sent to work in the countryside. Xio-Yen Wang made this film in her native village and smuggled it out of China. She now lives in California and will attend Saturday's screening to answer questions."

      The article notes: "The American picture, 'The Monkey Kid,' is really a Chinese film, by the Beijing Film Academy-trained Xiao-Yen Wang. Shot in Beijing without approval, it is a realistic portrayal of a child's tomfoolery during the Cultural Revolution, when her parents were sent into the countryside to be 're-educated.'"

      The book has an entry about the film's director, Wang Xiao-yen. The book notes: "In 1993, without a permit, she returned to Beijing to shoot The Monkey Kid (Hou San'r, completed in 1995), based on her experiences as a mischievous nine-year-old during the Cultural Revolution while her parents had been 'sent down' for 're-education'."

      The review notes: "By choosing her own path, Shi-Wei manages to escape the drab, dull rhythms of the Cultural Revolution. Comparisons to Truffaut's '400 Blows' are inevitable, but Wang acquits herself admirably with 'The Monkey Kid,' her first feature."

      The review notes in French: "Chronique émue et sentimentale d'une enfance lointaine, The Monkey Kid est une petite narration, réalisée avec des moyens modestes, en tenant compte des difficultés qu'il y a, aujourd'hui en Chine, à tourner un film dans des décors réels sur une époque que l'on préfère oublier.

      The article notes: "Xiao-Yen did submit her script for The Monkey Kid to China's film bureau and made some changes at official request, such as eliminating a Mao quotation and inserting one of his poems. However, when it became impossible to obtain official permission,, she and her husband hired children from an acting studio by contacting their parents outside the school. Xiao-Yen confessed that she was pretty scared after she finished shooting. Still, she and her husband managed to edit the film in China, then eluded airport authorities and smuggled the footage out of the country in three suitcases."

      The article notes: "On the other hand, the decidedly low-budget look in The Monkey Kid makes the actors and the script work harder. Although suffering from a general flatness of tone, the film--whose central character is a ten-year-old girl, Shi Wei, growing up during the Cultural Revolution--has some poignant moments."
