Non-notable hotel without any media coverage. Created in 2012 by an account whose only edit is this article. Likely promotional, only references are a link that goes nowhere and the hotel's own website. Fritzmann (message me) 22:55, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, even though my knee-jerk reaction was non-notability. The architectural nominations alone would clear WP:N... if someone can source them, please? Last1in (talk) 20:43, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep per sources currently cited. I am annoyed by the tendency of what look like good sources to turn out to be 404s or moribund Flash sites, and I suspect but cannot verify that the Berliner Architekturpreis was an honorable mention (Auszeichnung) rather than a prizewinning finish. But the important thing is that it seems like we have enough to build a reasonable article from, satisfying the GNG. Of course there is still the matter of sorting out the subject matter. FWIW I understand Frizz23 to be the same as Miniloft Kreuzberg (so to speak the "third" Miniloft building, after Slender and Bender in Mitte). That raises some questions in my mind whether all three of these buildings really represent enough of a cohesive thing that we should be dealing with them in the same article, but I suppose there's no particular harm in starting out that way and splitting if sources become sufficiently numerous. -- Visviva (talk) 02:42, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • This article has the tragic problem of probably being architecturally notable, but sourced primarily with hotel reviews. There's only one GNG qualifying source in the article itself, and the article only alludes to more. SportingFlyer T·C 17:14, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus‎ on the articles nominated here, but there is a consensus amongst many participants that this nomination was a WP:TRAINWRECK and never going to yield a workable result. Individual AfD discussions for some of the nominated articles are likely warranted, and it has been suggested that other matters be discussed at more appropriate venues like WP:ANI. Relisting of this discussion is highly unlikely to result in a clearer outcome or consensus on the bundle of articles that were nominated. Liz suggested a procedural close during an earlier relist, but decided against that due to the editor resources involved in the discussion; regarding that, I would suggest that relevant discussion and analysis from this discussion be referred to in any AfDs on the individual articles that might be opened later.

Battle of Salyan

Battle of Salyan (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Not a single neutral source or source from a credible publisher or website for this article, plus violation of WP:GS/AA – articles created by non-extended confirmed user. I am also nominating the following related pages because of same reasons, to enforce WP:GS/AA among other issues such as:

  • Battle of Karamaryan (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – Cannot be attributed to reliable sources. Not a single neutral source or source from a credible publisher or website.
  • Battle of Chapakchur (1916) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – Cannot be attributed to reliable sources. No neutral source or source from credible publisher or website, with the exception of Gawrych, who does not mention the result or even dedicate more than two sentences to the subject.
  • Battle of Muş (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – The subject is notable enough to have its own article, however the Turkish sources that make up most of the article are contradicted by neutral sources. The town was recaptured by Russia on August 24.[1][2] Also, "Muş" is an anachronism, it should be Mush. Given these massive issues, the best course of action would be WP:TNT. Article is poorly cited and even has an incorrect name, but can still be salvaged.
  • Bitlis offensive (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – Similar to the above Mush article, this article is only a partial version of a battle the Russians had actually won, with the full version Battle of Bitlis already existing and having 8 sources that Russia ultimately won. The two sources for Mush also confirm this. Article is only a partial copy of already existing Battle of Bitlis, would be preferable to merge.
  • Battle of Erzurum (1918) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – Cannot be attributed to reliable sources. This is an evacuation, not a battle. I have looked over the "The Struggle for Transcaucasia" source carefully for the Kazemzadeh quote (which has no page number) that "that the Armenians, known for their brutal tactics against civilian populations, proved to be poor warriors when confronted with a genuine war". This is not anywhere in Kazemzadeh's book, which damages the credibility of the Mustafayev source. Mustafayev does admit the city was abandoned with "minimal resistance", and Minassian writes the city was evacuated beforehand. Thus, I do not believe "Battle" is the correct term for this event. None of the text describes a battle.
  • Capture of Erzincan (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – Cannot be attributed to reliable sources. Similar to Erzurum, the sources describe an evacuation instead of a battle.
  • Capture of Trabzon (1918) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)WP:GS/AA
  • Massacre in Bashlybel (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – Cannot be attributed to reliable sources. No neutral or reliable sources in the Massacre section for the actual massacre. Only sources actually describing massacre are "azertag.az" or "Armiya.Az". The UN doc was submitted by "Permanent Representative of Azerbaijan to the United Nations", it is not actually claimed by the UN.
  • Terter operation (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)WP:GS/AA Although article is currently in a miserable state, including using multiple urls to the Russian Wikipedia that do not work, the article is based on an existing event.
  • Battle of Lachin (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)WP:GS/AA
  • Mardakert offensive (July 1992) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)WP:GS/AA Like Bitlis, this is a partial version of article that already exists, Mardakert and Martuni Offensives, and should be merged with it.

  • Let's see, this person is trying to discredit me, because he supports Armenia 100% and there is no fault in that, no his bad liver makes him want to delete all my articles for unknown reasons, you can just look at his profile he describes himself as a supporter of Armenia, if you want to debate the objectivity of my article you can, but indeed because you support Armenia and I think you are an Armenian from Levant, I can not continue this, the battle of Salyan is in the historical documents described by the Turkish government, and even present in the national encyclopedia of Azerbaijan, you would therefore tell me that it is not reliable as a source, but look at your articles on the battle of Halizdor and you will see that you are doing articles without any real sources, using the argument that I am not a verified member will not change anything, and your attempt to delete because it is not not accommodating to your community is ridiculous. Movaigonel (talk) 13:56, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Moreover, this only concerns edits as said here "Extended confirmed restriction: only extended-confirmed editors may make edits related to the topic area, subject to the following provisions:", in itself you have no reason to delete my articles, it contains reliable and considerate sources of schools, you can check them all, in itself you have no good argument. Movaigonel (talk) 14:08, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You say that my sources are not reliable, are you serious in your words two seconds? I have sources from Cambridge University press and it is not reliable? Your argument doesn't hold water. Movaigonel (talk) 14:10, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the articles are indeed lacking WP:RS, and most importantly, what do you think publishing entire articles related to Armenia/Azerbaijan is? It's a form of editing, and in this case, editing by non-ECP users hence violation of WP:GS/AA. - Kevo327 (talk) 14:18, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Well let's continue in your logic, I do not publish only on Armenia - Azerbaijan, because as far as I know the Ottoman Empire is not an Azerbaijani empire, right? Once again, my sources are correct and most of them come directly from Armenians who lived through the 1915 genocide, all my pages have been reviewed at the moment, as far as I know, writing articles is not prohibited, and writing about turkic countries is not forbidden too, so swallow your rage and please stop deleting my work with an argument that makes no sense, if you want to argue the legitimacy of my articles you can do it and I will give you all the sources you need, for me this debate is closed, you do not accept as an Armenian to write articles that are not in favor of your country even when sometimes it includes Armenian sources , such as "Battle of Erzurum (1918)", but you don't do the same for Armenian articles which are not accessible and purely false when we check it, such as "Battle of Halizdor", "Syunik rebellion", "Battle of Mastara", and it doesn't cause you any problem because it suits your community, doesn't it? And again the last time you undo what I modified on the siege of Aintab, because it contained fraudulent information, no French sources claim that Andranik Ozanian was present in Cilicia, but you still have undo, lack of faith maybe ? Movaigonel (talk) 16:17, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I suggest you stop with the personal attacks, such behavior is not allowed on Wikipedia. Focus on content, not the contributor. Your created articles aren't just about Ottoman Empire, they mention various info about Armenia and Azerbaijan, including as belligerents, so articles such as these created by non-ECP editor are in violation of WP:GS/AA. - Kevo327 (talk) 16:41, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
First of all, I'm sorry if my words touched you,
but you see, we're going to see my articles to contradict the argument that it's about "Azerbaijan-Armenia"
  • Battle of Erzurum 1918: This includes the Ottoman empire and in no case azerbaijan, for the sources it comes from Minassian, Anahide Ter, An Armenian-French historian, in her book "1918-1920, the Republic of Armenia", she talks about the capture of Erzurum by Kazim Karabékir as said in this document: https://books.google.fr/books?id+=gQxjQCiEgFUC&dq=Erzincan+1918+kazim&pg=PA60&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false
  • Capture of Erzincan: Again, it includes only the Ottoman Empire, and does not speak of any case of Azerbaijan, the information also comes from the same book quoted earlier.
  • Capture of Trabzon (1918), also does not include Azerbaijan, only the Ottoman Empire, the source is Sean McMeekin, in his book The Ottoman Endgame, he talks about the capture of Trabzon by the Ottomans: https://books.google.fr/+books?id=bfi1CAAAQBAJ&newbks=0&printsec=frontcover&pg=PT424&dq=trabzon+vehip+1918&hl=fr&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=trabzon%20vehip%201918&f=false
  • Battle of Chapakchur (1916): It also includes that the ottoman empire not of Azerbaijan, source concerning George Walter Gawrych, speaking of Chapakchur : [3]
  • Battle of Muş: does not include Azerbaijan, includes the Ottoman Empire, source of Klaus Kreiser, from his book "Atatürk: Eine Biographie": [4]
  • Bitlis offensive: again not talking about Azerbaijan, only about the ottoman empire. source from Allen, William Edward David and Muratoff, Paul, and also source from Cambridge: https://books.google.fr/books?id=oDb6P0HXwIcC&dq=bitlis+kemal&pg=PA422&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=bitlis%20kemal&f=false
  • Battle of Salyan: Included the democratic republic of Azerbaijan certainly, but it was a coalition with the Ottoman empire, in addition it was against the commune of Baku, which is I believe not only Armenian but Bolshevik.
  • Battle of Karamaryan: Exactly for the battle of Salyan, against the municipality of baku, therefore Bolshevik but not Armenian.
  • Massacre in Bashlybel and Terter operation, Battle of Lachin. were not written by me.
  • Mardakert offensive (July 1992), the only point you are right, but in fact it does not change anything, the sources are all correct, and even include Armenian sources.
In conclusion 90% of the pages you want to delete have nothing to do with what you described, what I'm going to say is not against you, but I'm afraid you lose your objectivity due to the fact that you are Armenians, don't take what I said the wrong way but that's what I noticed. Good evening to you. Movaigonel (talk) 17:37, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
User_talk:Movaigonel#July_2023 as explained, those are covered by WP:GS/AA. - Kevo327 (talk) 20:20, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Besides 1TWO3Writer, just checked all my pages, so I would like this debate to be closed because it has no place to be, and that you stop trying to delete my pages. Movaigonel (talk) 16:19, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've blocked Movaigonel for one week for the repeated violations of GS/AA. This AfD can continue, but given the number of pages involved and the nature of the deletion rationale, WP:AE or WP:ANI may have been a better forum of choice. signed, Rosguill talk 17:53, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Procedural keep. I've never heard of an AfD being WP:TNT'ed, but this nomination is so problematic that TNT comes to mind. First of all, the nomination fails to state a valid deletion rationale for any of the nominated articles and in some cases states no deletion rationale at all. Second, each of these articles needs separate consideration. For instance, my !vote would be to WP:MERGE Mardakert offensive (July 1992) with the existing article Mardakert and Martuni Offensives. A quick WP:GOOGLECHECK suggests that there are enough reliable sources to establish notability but we don't need two articles on essentially the same subject. The other articles vary from being clearly notable, if poorly sourced, to being completely obscure. Fiachra10003 (talk) 21:06, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Fiachra10003 I elaborated on the deletion reasons and crossed off the articles that could be improved or merged, now only articles that lack notability or reliable sources for their existence are listed. - Kevo327 (talk) 11:04, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all Looking through the articles, it's apparent they were created in a restricted area by a user who isn't allowed to edit there. The additional problems highlighted by the nominator are concerning in their own regard. Vanezi (talk) 19:19, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting as this is a complicated bundled nomination with the nominator changing what they are requesting with several different articles. Participating editors should carefully review the nomination statement as Deletion is not being called for with all proposed articles. I'm almost tempted to do a procedural close so that these articles can be considered in individual or smaller bundled nominations but editors have invested time in this discussion so I will relist it.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:08, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I can't see any way to provide useful input on such a large and complex bundled nom. I can see a case for bundled noms where we have a large number of cookie-cutter articles or a group of tightly related articles where the research involved in evaluating the nom would be substantially the same, but each of these articles requires a separate factual inquiry. Importantly, the WP:GS/AA violation is not a free-standing rationale for deletion, because as that page states: Deletion of new articles created by non-extended-confirmed editors is permitted but not required.-- Visviva (talk) 22:49, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Visviva I crossed some of the articles per Liz suggestion on my talk in order for it to be easier for voters and only left the most problematic ones. The ones left not only were created in violation of WP:GS/AA, but having several issues I highlight for each remaining article. Some are very problematic being just propaganda with no reliable sources confirming massacres like Massacre in Bashlybel.
    In general, I'd say the WP:ONUS is on the article creator to provide reliable sources, which they haven’t done for most of the articles, so deleting would be the best option. - Kevo327 (talk) 07:46, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks! Bearing in mind that most AFD participants are not experts in the military historiography of this region, can you explain why the sources currently cited e.g. in Battle of Salyan are not reliable? -- Visviva (talk) 05:14, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Visviva The participants would not need to be experts on military historiography, they would only need to be familiar with Anti-Armenian sentiment in Turkey and in Azerbaijan. If Turkish or Azerbaijani sources are making extraordinary claims about Armenian topics (in the case of Saylan, 'the small Turkic militia defeating the twenty-times larger Armenian-Russian-Iranian bad guys who also massacred civilians') that no neutral source mentions, then generally it does not belong on Wikipedia. The participants would also need to be aware that these are countries without academic integrity; all of their academic institutions are state-controlled and only promote nationalistic narratives even if that means rewriting history (see Kemalist historiography). The president of Turkey even claimed America was discovered by Turks.
    As for the specific sources on the Saylan article:
    The Yengin source is just a diary from over a century ago, not reliable per WP:PRIMARY.
    Güzel, Oğuz, and Karatay are genocide deniers. Page 483: "This is an important proof, demonstrating that Armenians were not subjected to genocide before and after the deportation."
    Güçlü is very apologetic to genocide denial and portrays it as a legitimate view, such as (Page 179) writing genocide deniers like Heath W. Lowry and Justin McCarthy "both dispute that the evidence supports a verdict of genocide" as opposed to "other historians...take a very different view". Also on Page 44: "Yet unlike the denial of the Holocaust that nourishes anti-Semitism, denial of the Armenian genocide is not part of a racist anti-Armenian ideology".
    The Altayli website is not a credible or established source, and includes articles denying genocide.
    I also found very little information about these writers, and suspect they would not pass Wikipedia:Notability (academics). - Kevo327 (talk) 22:37, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as per WP:ROC and WP:RS. The battle is not covered by Western historians, hence verification of events is difficult to achieve. The article is confusing to follow. It is written as though it was part of the Caucasus campaign, yet discusses that it falls in the scope of the Russian Revolution. A rewrite of the article in the context of the Southern Front of the Russian Civil War could be a solution, however the absence of Western coverage of the battle means it would be futile. ElderZamzam (talk) 14:32, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect‎ to Alternative versions of Spider-Man#Insomniac's Peter Parker. History will be left intact, so if either it is desired to merge any content or additional notability takes place after release of additional material, that will still be available if needed. Given that, there is no need to send anything to draft; anyone who wants a draft or userspace copy can just do that themself. Seraphimblade Talk to me 02:56, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Parker (Insomniac Games character)

Peter Parker (Insomniac Games character) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Most of the reception is for the parent game, and not the character itself, and there's very little reception as is. Development info can be rolled into the parent game too where not already present, and doesn't really warrant a separate article on the character. There's also a heavy instance of synthesis here, such as some of the appearances in other media being claimed as direct nods to this particular incarnation of the character. This fails notability. Kung Fu Man (talk) 23:03, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@BD2412: No! Very bad idea. You didn’t say merge. You are saying to redirect a B class sourced article to a very bad list article. This is a GA potential article, the only reason why it didn’t turn GA was that I had Wikipedia burn out or I cancelled the nomination, the list article to merge to will never turn into such just even if you changed it to merge. That is way too careless. Too many editors contributed and appreciated this article for that to happen IMO. Jhenderson 777 04:30, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To be entirely clear though, the GAN had a lot of work that needed to be done to pass. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 05:12, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I never got to find out on the second vote to know for sure. I ain’t taking your word it. I could have done all the completed tasks depending on the time and requests for it. I created GAs before. Jhenderson 777 06:08, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Creator Keep: This is getting silly at best. Just because reception is not full like you expect. Doesn’t mean WP:GNG is not established. There is other proofs of notability in the article and it would not surprise me there is more reception now that can be added, even moreso in the future, when the sequel coming out. Are you the same editor or same IP that pulled “what about Batman: Arkham character” logic? It wouldn’t surprise me. There is a lot of articles I don’t care to keep, but this is not one of them. I even pushed GA on it one time. Jhenderson 777 04:18, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This article is also B class and had a DYK hook. It seemed to prove the notability quite well when appearing on those. Can we just wait when the sequel comes out? I promise you there will be no “content fork” if someone brings that up as some excuse. It’s probably not anyway, I wouldn’t know. Some of what was here was passed down on the video games articles. Jhenderson 777 04:24, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
First off, assume good faith. Secondly, the second GAN you pushed it for in 2019 even mentioned there was a notability concern. That was literally years ago and yet here things are.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 04:28, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am assuming good faith. I asked if you are the editor because I don’t know. If so Wp:Otherstuffexists. But I still assume good faith since that’s just an essay. Unless you are the IP. Than that was sockpuppeting. That’s bad! But I don’t accuse, I just ask. Also the GAN had a lot not in it now. They keep adding more info after that. Then I pushed GAN but never got a nominator so I cancelled it due to wikibreaks after a long hatius. A lot was added, even the reception section stuff. That wasn’t me that added it, it was a whole bundle of other editors. There is also at least 12,000 viewers in this article. Let that sink in! Jhenderson 777 04:40, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I have no idea why that IP was brought up, I've been editing on this account for decades now. Also it being "B-class", having a DYK blurb and 12000 edits doesn't address any of the concerns I mentioned. And I don't see that situation improving just because another game coming out. The article needs to show he is independently notable in this incarnation and it currently is not.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 04:44, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
How is the character not notable? Do you read the sources telling he is popular among other proofs within the sources and maybe even more current articles of the character still and notice the article gets a decent amount of views. You were clearly not paying attention, the article grew way more past that nomination. It will most likely do it again if there is a sequel. But I would not crystal ball such a statement (but at the same time) why would you nominate a deletion when it has potential to grow when there is a sequel? I counter your statement that notability is not proven? How is it not proven? Like in my mind, this has more notability than these branched articles of the MCU. How does a decent article with enough content not prove notability? It is even established that this Peter is not the mainstream Peter. Totally different. So it’s not even like the movie version different Peter’s. Ok so you are not that IP, forget it. Answer the question regarding it not proving notability and all the others hopefully. Because I clearly see notability even if I was not the one who started it. Jhenderson 777 04:57, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop haranguing editors. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 05:05, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please assume good faith. Me being replied to when I voted and then I replied back is not harassing haranguing. Jhenderson 777 05:26, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The reception size is not the seal the deal of notability. Those sources that were used are. You are basing it’s by some reception size which grew in the last nomination. The development and merchandising and ti-ins are indication of notability. Clearly it has a reception larger than MCU branched articles which will grow more when a sequel come this fall. Jhenderson 777 05:14, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree that the article's reception is adequate. Very little of it actually demonstrates that Peter Parker here is discussed as a subject independent from the Insomniac Games series. I'm not opposed to this article existing, in fact I find the idea pretty fascinating, but in its current state, it does little to show that this incarnation of Peter Parker is notable on his own. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 05:17, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It’s not even an incarnation. That may be the same named character but the creators pretty much admit the Peter it totally different. It is but it isn’t. I will shut up now that you think my different opinion is harassing haranguing or whatever. Jhenderson 777 05:30, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Why did you ignore the actual points I was making about the quality of the Reception section instead to make a comment that's not even accurate? Being an incarnation of Peter Parker makes him a different character. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 05:35, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Because I actually made that point before. I can’t reply the same stuff. You brought up the incarnation so that’s just another point. Listen I am not going to spend time debating. A lot of editors voted. A lot more is coming. This somehow got to be a very popular AFD so I am staying out of it and letting the vote merge take place. The verdict is already in your favor. Unfortunately if this article is notable later on, I don’t think I can revive it because I have no time to revive an article. Nobody will probably care to bring it back. It’s dead, Jim! Jhenderson 777 05:49, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect topic into Spider-Man (Insomniac Games series), Draftify article contents per WP:PRESERVE. For context, I recall that there was no separate article about the Insomniac game series at the time this article is created so I didn't see any issue with content forking. Now that there is, a separate article specifically about that series' incarnation of Spider-Man seems redundant since information about the character can easily be redistributed throughout the development and character reception sections. OceanHok proposed that the contents be preserved into a draft and I agree. Haleth (talk) 22:34, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment / Hold for now. There's another game in the series coming out in just a few months. I also don't see any warning given on the talk page - which is not required, for sure, but would have been a courtesy given the article has a maintainer clearly invested in the article per above, who might have been happy to trim the article some if asked. It's difficult to tell right now how much "meat" there is in the sourcing due to the use of weak sources (e.g. CBR) and passing mentions. That said, it would not shock me if after they were removed, the resulting shorter article might still passes notability, given that the games sold a zillion copies and Spider-Man is extremely popular. Give the article ~6 months to be cleaned up and/or expanded with the new Spider-Man game coming out in the series, and re-nominate for AFD then if the concerns remain IMO, there's no deadline. (Canvassing disclaimer: the nominator has linked this AFD in the WP:DISCORD, and I only came here because of that.) SnowFire (talk) 05:07, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Those sources would be dead by now. So we have to wait on the upcoming sequel for reception. But there is plenty of sources bringing the character up, but it’s all speculation of what is going to happen of the character for now. Jhenderson 777 05:31, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect or Merge into Spider-Man (Insomniac Games series). Since the creator admitted that there is no more to add and prefer to wait for upcoming sequel then that would fall into WP:TOOSOON + it consists mostly about CBR and passing mentions.

No there is notability already proven. You can’t go by reception size? The sources are what says it. i am saying I can’t find the new sources to add. You guys are judging by how the body of article of a section. Also was there not a canvas going on? Jhenderson 777 05:23, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To be clear, I saw this link mentioned in Discord and went to check. Also, please stop mischaracterizing people's arguments, Greenish Pickle was arguing that the article presently lacks adequate sigcov. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 05:31, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I didn’t really mischaracterize. I just want to know if the sources are adequate. It seemed we are judging on the body article or how it is worded or something. Maybe the article sources weren’t just worded to prove it just yet. 🤷‍♂️ Also can the discord link be shown or something? I don’t know anything about this discord thing. I feel if I can’t dig old PS4 era sources, other people can maybe prove notablility. I just don’t have that skill. But in this case of current sources, they are still talking about the character, but it’s just game stuff for now. Jhenderson 777 05:41, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge. As it is, the article simply does not succeed at demonstrating notability. The design stuff is solid, but without adequate reception, it falls short. There's only a couple sources that are actually about the character in the reception section, and the reception section has a lot of emphasis on comments made in reviews. I'd be willing to assist with work done to clear that bar and get proper significant coverage, but the author's responses makes it incredibly difficult to envision working on this article. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 05:35, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I found the discord convo now. No need to link it to me now. Jhenderson 777 07:12, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My two cents on it, would think it’s not good to have the community of the video game community behind it. That’s where the discussion began. This and a few other relevant genre articles. An user had the four hearts when he said “God speed friend”. Thankfully that editor didn’t vote.I assume good faith on the OP mentioning all the AFD’s. It’s not like he told them how to vote but it feels like a pat back on backing up their complaints in Wikipedia:I just don't like it style arguments with the same community and it felt he really encourages the idea of liking to AFD stuff implying that there is!”worst case scenarios” if a different article is maybe saved by sources. Also I don’t know what the edited out comments said and I am not bothering to know or link the discussion. I have no hard feelings to go that far because I personally don’t think of it that bad. If wrong, second chances are deserved here. Jhenderson 777 07:50, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
What is going on?? It's not that deep. Everyone in this discussion has given sensible reasons for why they have issues with this article that are not to do with not liking it. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 08:16, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don’t know what went on until found a convo. The OP questioned its existence and talked about AFD on various articles. He said he would AFD and edited what he originally said. You admitted you saw it so I think you found it by the topic. I also noticed four hearted reactions of encouraging the AFD. It’s best to not know who they were. The funny thing is the argument was not lack of notability but more of complaints and why does this exist? But now video game editors are saying it’s not notable based on the video game essay rules. I want to believe what you said about it not seeming notable, but the first discussion doesn’t imply notability was the only reason and how many people were directed to the site with that link too, it can look that not caring of the article that is relevant of one of many wikiProjects this article had is more what lead to this. I don’t even know why you asked. I brought it up because I wanted to see it but you guys didn’t want to link it so I found it myself. This is all I know. Then I pretty much defended the topic for you but I am still not sure the intent was these notability concerns that you never addressed in the other site. Jhenderson 777 08:43, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, the discussion in the wikipedia discord was regarding the article's notability. Not "I don't like this", not "This shouldn't exist", but a question of why it was independently separate as its own thing when the sources didn't support it. That was the argument presented here. However instead of actually trying to figure out what might be needed or argue your case you've gone and presumed bad faith at every opportunity and dismissed other editor's own concerns. In fact, the whole point of the discussion was to see if there was something I was missing as to why it was independently separate before bringing it to AfD. So can you please stop being disruptive? This is a mess at this point.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 08:53, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am just going by word by word what I saw on text. I even see it by screenshot but I won’t show. What I saw was more accurate to what you really say you said. If you mean it like that, then word it in that way. But I don’t want to talk about it any more. It’s not personal or I would have brought admin intervention to it and I don’t want to do that when it involved a personal article, I still think it maybe helped the vote in your favor when you said you would put it on AFD and brought it up on there but ✌️ and truce on it. Stick to votes now! Also stop with saying I am disruptive and harassing haranguing”. I swear I am not. You guys are just colleagues and know each other to be bias to think that but I swear my debates were being civil when we discussed this. Jhenderson 777 09:05, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Spider-Man or Spider-Man (2018 video game), both are suitable targets Alternative versions of Spider-Man#Insomniac's Peter Parker per Zxcvbnm. These needless superhero spinouts are unnecessary. JOEBRO64 12:54, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Spider-Man or Spider-Man (2018 video game), per Joebro Alternative versions of Spider-Man#Insomniac's Peter Parker per Zxcvbnm. Obvious disclosure, this topic was discussed pre-AFD in Discord, and then overnight (I was asleep), apparently linked once, which was then contested, and the link deleted. We don't really like discussion links like that, but at the end of the day, the population of that channel is WP:VG members who mostly watchlist the WP:VG delsort anyway. (It'd be good for people to remember DELSORT pages exist. I can promise that everyone who's participated in this AFD thus definitely monitors it Oh wow. I realized this is not DELSORTed. That is indeed problematic, but I will be fixing, and again, these are all common WP:VG AFD participants anyway) Now, a lot of my comments are being referred to, and misrepresented, above. I'm not going to go over that though. So here's my straight position on the actual article: The sourcing is completely misrepresented. Independent SIGCOV is being manufactured through this misrepresentation. The reception section of this article, for example, is entirely sourced to reviews of the game, not the character. Of course, it does discuss some of the details of the character in the course of describing the game, but that's hardly independent coverage. There's also really twisting prose, such as the very lengthy statement regarding EGM's review. Most critically, it makes the claim that EGM praised the character's storytelling. EGM made no such claim. It attributed nothing like that to the character. Every instance the review makes of referring to storytelling is in the context of the game's storytelling. The entire reception section is like this, while details such as Development are almost completely duplicative of the game's own development sections. The rest of the article is a huge run down of "Spider-man appeared in Marvel related properties!" with a lot of OR/Synth in regards to whether any given appearance of Spider man was actually the "Insomniac incarnation" or simply a nod to the game, which is obviously part of branding as the premiere Spider-man video game at this time. Even the Face model controversy is not really coverage of the character as an independent subject, but commentary related to the remastered video game. -- ferret (talk) 15:06, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Alternative versions of Spider-Man#Insomniac's Peter Parker. I generally go right to check the reception not because it immediately proves whether the character is notable, but because it shows whether they should have an article per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. In this case, there's no evidence the character themselves had an impact outside of the general story of the game. I'm not even certain he's independently notable per WP:GNG. It can't be reiterated enough: no amount of WP:REFBOMBing will substitute for significant coverage. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 15:23, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Since this AFD blew up with an entire wikiproject community that I originally belonged to or still do, that lead to an off wikipedia topic saying the same complaint on here of “reception section sourcing imperfection, reception section sourcing imperfection, reception section sourcing imperfection!” which seems to adhere to the project essay mentality of the burden of proof of notability on original video game characters. I literally concede! Just incubate it since a video game sequel is coming when it merges. I wish I could say I have enough time like I used to to help prove it. But the real world jobs amd hobbies are calling me in my adulting life. ✌️ Jhenderson 777 20:02, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    As the discussion is tending towards redirect, the content will be preserved in the history if things change in the future. It's important to remember regardless of the AFD's problematic brief linking off site, if it had been properly DELSORT listed, the same project participants would have shown up. The arguments being presented is that the sourcing available does not represent independent SIGCOV as required by GNG. Please don't cast aspirations on an entire project as having bad faith motivations. -- ferret (talk) 20:05, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Do me a favor and stop assuming I have bad faith assumptions and am assuming motivations. Enough of the circular logic of such WP:AGF claims. I even disclaimed truce, peace no hard feelings and assumptions of food faith countless times. How many times can I disclaim this? Stop talking FOR me, please respectfully. I feel baited because you keep saying what I do or not do as right and we are getting off track when pointing flaws on the editor and we are not focusing on the vote again. I literally would not message any more if you would stop the pointing finger trope. I said you maybe do personal messages when I saw it. That’s the only hint of this “aspiration”. But it was a form of questioning. So take it with a grain of salt and stop with finding the fault of me with this bandwagon gang up. You were affiliated in the discussion before as colleagues, and now you are of course defending the issue since you were in it. The best thing to do is the Fight Club logic, stop talking about your affiliations about it if you were a part of it. As for everything else you said about redirecting and all, I am pretty familiar. I been a Wikipedia editor for a very long time. 😂 I am not a newb. ✌️ once more. Jhenderson 777 21:23, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting, sorry for prolonging this involved discussion but we have editors voicing support for Delete, Keep, Draftify, and Redirect or Merge with several different target articles suggested. It's hard to find a consensus with editors all over the map here. I want to discourage further tangents on Discord or Video game communities on Wikipedia and just consider whether or not there are enough reliable sources to warrant a stand-alone article. Just as a reminder, as you all know, an outcome of Redirect or Draftify would preserve the article in case future games and media coverage about them provide additional sources of notability. Things would be more difficult to handle in those circumstances with a Delete or Merge outcome. But, personally, I'm not invested in any result, just taking the temperature of the group discussion. But please, stick to talking about the sources and the article. Thank you.

@Liz Involved, obviously, but I would read a consensus to redirect to Spider-Man (Insomniac Games series), which someone can on their own initiative expand further with whatever useful merge-worthy content exists in the history. I think Draftify is a poor call compared to just redirecting, as it runs the risk of an eventual G13, destroying the history (even if Refund is easy enough). -- ferret (talk) 23:24, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to the game, this version of Parker seems to be no different or in someway revolutionary in how's he's been portrayed in other forms of media. "He's older" is about all I get from the article that makes him different.Oaktree b (talk) 02:57, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Alternative versions of Spider-Man#Insomniac's Peter Parker - The sources being used for the non-plot sections (development, reception, etc) are, like in many articles on video game characters, actually coverage and reviews of the game itself, where the few sentences in each of them that specifically talk about the character are all being cherry picked out, but are not actually significant coverage. While the games are notable, there is no evidence to show that the version of Spider-Man in them is, himself, a particularly noteworthy version that has the amount of significant coverage that would justify having an independent article. The list of alternate Spider-Men already has a section on the character, and would make the better redirect target. Rorshacma (talk) 16:28, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak redirect to Alternative versions of Spider-Man#Insomniac's Peter Parker. I find the work done on this article really impressive, and I can definitely understand why the article creator is unhappy with this situation. But I have to agree with the substance of the redirect arguments above. I feel that this level of granularity, in the absence of sources that directly support it, gets us into the messy territory where WP:NOT, WP:OR and WP:GNG converge. I don't think that coverage at this level serves our encyclopedic purpose. -- Visviva (talk) 05:00, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, I'd like to make sure it's understood, this is not at all a question about whether the article is well written or if the creator didn't put effort in. They very much did. But the policies just aren't quite aligned. -- ferret (talk) 13:48, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Same sort of case as Kingston and District Football League and Wearside Combination Football League. In recent news, I can't find anything better than Guardian Series, which mentions the league once in passing. Searching in the British Newspaper Archive yields a few relevant hits but these are all just basic results listings with no meaningful prose about the league.

Completely hoax creation, as the Chalukya dynasty was a South Indian/Gujarat/Karnataka dynasty, not Gurjar or Gujar.[1] Gujjars are an ethnic group native to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. They speak the Gujari language, which is a dialect of Rajasthani. Gujaratis, on the other hand, are an ethnic group from Gujarat, an Indian state. They communicate in Gujarati, an Indo-Aryan language. Gujjars and Gujaratis are not related since they hail from separate locations, speak different languages, and have different customs. Since Gujarat was once known as Gujaratra, locals are referred to as Gurjars or Gurjardesha residents, despite the fact that the caste referenced in this article belongs to a completely distinct tribe that raises cattle. By duplicating Chalukya dynasty, inaccurate information is supplied in this article. 𝙳𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚖𝚁𝚒𝚖𝚖𝚎𝚛 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚌𝚞𝚜𝚜 18:29, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Neither party functionaries nor unelected political candidates are "inherently" notable on those grounds per se — the notability test would require significant reliable source coverage about him to establish a reason why he could be credibly seen as a special case of significantly greater notability than the norm for either of those levels of significance. But this depends on a mixture of primary sources, which aren't support for notability at all, and run of the mill campaign coverage of a type and depth that every candidate in every election can always show, which aren't enough to make him more special than everybody else.

  • Delete: as failing the GNG. I'm not sure what the Keep proponents are thinking, but WP:NPOL holds the following: "Politicians and judges who have held international, national, or (for countries with federal or similar systems of government) state/province–wide office, or have been members of legislative bodies at those levels. This also applies to people who have been elected to such offices but have not yet assumed them." Since the subject has never been a judge or held elective office, NPOL doesn't remotely apply. They could with as much justification claim that the article should be kept per WP:GEOLAND or WP:NHOCKEY.

    I think a redirect to Joe Biden judicial appointment controversies makes more sense, seeing as there is already a description of the WP:BLP1E for this nominee and the other non-notable failed presidential judicial nominees, along with details about specific dates regarding the nomination process. As it is, the list of otherwise non-notable judicial nominees for Trump is fairly small and I don't think there is the needed SIGCOV. Let'srun (talk) 15:19, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Please review the reception section again, there were countless deletions of valid sources by Kung Fu Man and others users that I wanted to restore. Some could be removed like the Twitter citations but I remember there were news article about polls for character popularity of that image. There was a Vice article about this character on mental health that was deleted for example.[1] I think its pretty flawed to look at character reception and make an opinion, for example most news articles are written about controversies. Lucyk Chloe saw some social media uproar because of her being a generic Japanese idol character, Josie Rizal caused controversy because of a similar Phillipinian national figure with similar name, and boom there are your news articles now you have sources, and now you have ammo to write a Wikipedia article? I think that is a really flawed way how that should work on Wikipedia, and very revisionist. I mean it will only benefit basically the newest characters because the internet penetration wasnt really there yet during Xbox 360/PS3 era. Its a general problem on Wikipida with pop culture.--Crossswords (talk) 17:05, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect back to the list. Crossswords, I insist you consider whether sources speak about the character in a significant way, as the Vice article has nothing about her - she's only tangentially related, a passing mention. Further, it's not even the author mentioning Alisa, it's a person interviewed for the article. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 17:11, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The author is clearly mentioning Alisa and has even used the characters picture in the article header.
    Quote: But gaming has allowed her to confront her fears in a safe environment, with the hours spent fighting as the Tekken 7 character Alisa Bosconovitch serving as an avenue for her to gain confidence, and get a handle on her anxious thoughts and feelings. Crossswords (talk) 17:44, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
      • But this isn't commenting on Alisa in any way, and the article is clearly not talking about Alisa helping her mental health, but more Tekken 7. There's no evidence to suggest that Alisa is what helps her with mental health, it's just speculation. We obviously don't agree, so I won't continue this debate. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 18:15, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to List of Tekken characters#Alisa Bosconovitch. Significant coverage must be considered when trying to create/expand an article.

  • To summarize my opinion at least, why this character warrants a Wikipedia page. She was one of the default Characters in Tekken 6 if you played the Story Campaign, playing offline she was the default companion along seeing cutscenes of her story with Lars Alexandersson. She was heavily featured in the CGI movie 'Tekken: Blood Vengeance' and there werent really that many other Tekken characters in this movie. There are countless cameos by now. Removing her own article would not reflect the reality of her impact as a Tekken character.Crossswords (talk) 17:33, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Unfortunately, the general notability guideline doesn't give much weight to merely being featured in prominent roles. We can't speculate on her impact, which I wouldn't argue is based on what Bandai Namco does with Alisa, but what reliable secondary sources have to say about the character. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 17:37, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep this series of edits by the nominator invalidates the entire premise of the AfD: decimating an article and then nominating it for deletion is a user conduct issue and should be addressed as such before considering any such discussion valid. Articles should be put up for deletion in their "best" state, not one where someone with an opinion has already excised sources they don't think pass muster--if it's to be deleted, that's for the participants to decide. As you can see from the above !votes, this has had an effect on others' perceptions of the article. It may have gotten lost in Crossswords' WP:WAX arguments, but this deserves serious consideration — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jclemens (talkcontribs)

    From what I can see, the most significant source removed by Kung Fu Man is a Kotaku article with a few sentences about the producer joking (or not?) about her breasts being essential functionality.

    Cleaning up... and then redirecting. Do you not see how that's a problem? If there's enough to keep an article, cleaning up trivial mentions is fine. If there's not and it will eventually be redirected or AfD'ed, then minimizing the coverage in the article prior to redirecting it--even if the editor doesn't think it amounts to significant coverage--is a WP:FAIT issue. All discussions should have the best evidence, and if editors think something should be deleted, then it is incumbent upon them to make sure their conduct with respect to the article has been with the cleanest possible hands. Why am I explaining this to editors who should know better? Jclemens (talk) 04:19, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Jclemens:, have you considered that the goal of the initial cleanup was to figure out *what* sources could be used for notability and then see what else is out there before BLAR-ing it? It's a lot harder to work on a foundation with all the rotten wood in the way. Assume some good faith.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 04:29, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Seriously. It's honestly shocking that this position is being taken. @Jclemens: What should KFM have done if the content was largely falsely attributed to a source? Or a complete misrepresentation of what the source said? What benefit is there to leaving up bad content besides misleading people? The fact that your reply did not demonstrate a single specific piece of content removed that should not have been removed tells me one of two things: either you didn't check to verify what KFM removed was even remotely valuable, which would make me think that you have extremely poor judgment, or you checked it, saw nothing of value removed, and were being dishonest in your reply. For an experienced editor, it's concerning that I'm arriving at either negligence or dishonesty. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 13:45, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Are you asserting any of those possibilities to be the case? No? Then leave the WP:WAX arguments out of discussion, please. The answer to the question I suppose you believe is a "gotcha" is that of course I didn't check any of the sources, because it wasn't my job to. For that matter, I'm not an expert in video game character notability, so much as I am in editor conduct. Kung Fu Man Could have added "Full disclosure: I removed a bunch of lousy sources back in May" or words to that effect in the nomination, even pointing to the diffs like I did, but didn't. If you think nominators are responsible to search the Internet for sources, but not discuss sources they themselves previously removed prior to the nomination, I'd be really curious as to why. Jclemens (talk) 18:42, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Non-experts may participate, of course, but I would highly recommend that non-experts think twice before making baseless accusations of user conduct without even verifying whether there is a conduct issue to be found. This is not "editor who joined in 2008" caliber, aim higher than this. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 20:07, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Who's the non-expert on user conduct? Not me. Who joined in 2008? Not me. Who are you even talking to? I certainly don't need your approval or consent to document a user conduct issue, although it is curious how much pushback you and others are giving me, defending the suboptimal nominator conduct.

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria says:

    A book is presumed notable if it verifiably meets, through reliable sources, at least one of the following criteria:

    1. The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself. This can include published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries, bestseller lists, and reviews. This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy, or other publications where the author, its publisher, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the book.

Inappropriate content fork covering adverse effects attributed to covid-19 vaccination in German-speaking countries. The adverse effects of the vaccine are the same in Germany etc. as any other country so this term makes no sense for an enwiki article title. The content should be covered if WP:DUE at COVID-19 vaccine or potentially adverse effects of the COVID-19 vaccine if a split is merited. (t · c) buidhe 14:13, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm against deletion but the article should be renamed: I'm not a native English speaker but the term "post-vac" sounds very English to me – yet I didn't find articles about it from other countries than Germany, Switzerland and Austria. And the articles from Germany and Switzlerland are really profound, it is an established term there.

What's odd is that more than half of the reported worldwide cases (that show symptomes described as "Post-Vac" in Germany) occurred in Germany.--Lugioner (talk) 14:57, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The German Paul Ehrlich Institute writes in its recent report:[26]
"Beim Vergleich der dargestellten absoluten Zahlen von Verdachtsmeldungen fällt auf, dass zum Zeitpunkt der Auswertung ca. 50 Prozent aller weltweit registrierten Verdachtsfälle (n=2.657) mit diesen Gesundheitsstörungen aus Deutschland berichtet wurden (n=1.452).

  • For the moment, I would keep. The story is important, it's being reported in quite serious sources, so we can't ignore it. But it doesn't fit well into a global article on the vaccination because it's almost exclusively a German-language-area phenomenon, and quite possibly nothing to do with the vaccination. We don't yet know what it means, what it is, or where the story is going, so I would leave the article as it is, until things are more clear. But with no prejudice against a future merge or move. Elemimele (talk) 20:05, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I would also vote to keep the article and fully agree that the subject is important and that serious sources have been quoted. It does not do to simply ignore the ongoing research into this highly sensitive and important subject. I do not consider it a merely "German" related problem. However, it is a fact that the German minister of health, dr. Lauterbach, has officially accepted the phenomenon of post-vaccination damage. More research on this subject should indeed be done with an open mind. The answer does not lie in a mere "deletion" of the article. Hanengerda (talk) 05:53, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and redirect : Half is a content fork, and the other half is related to Germany with sources in German... so why is it being described in English Wikipedia. The "Background" section uses Template:Excerpt which in this case includes the first paragraph, omits paragraphs 2-6, and ends with the 4 bulleted points while omitting the important preamble "Documented rare serious effects include". A serious error. Put the content into COVID-19 vaccination in Germany#Above-average number of "post-vac" reports in Germany and leave Post-Vac as a redirect. Grorp (talk) 06:38, 16 July 2023 (UTC) Added: I will point out these phrases from the non-extracted content: "the term is only common in [3 countries]"; "no causal relationship has been found"; "post-vac has been little studied"; "it was found that [symptoms] after vaccination were no more common than would be expected based on normal incidence". In other words, this subject is a fringe theory and falls under the guidelines of WP:FRINGE. The second half of the article already exists in an article where it belongs; here it is a WP:CONTENTFORK, and WP:SYNTH by trying to associate known adverse events with the new German-regional term "post-vac" — where I'm quite sure if I checked all nine of those extracted sources, I would find not a single one of them uses the term "post-vac". This whole article is being used to push a POV. Grorp (talk) 00:25, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The excerpt template wasn't in the original Wiki-article, and it's grouped in a way that the sources of the excerpt are held apart from the sources of the "core article". The template used has the simple form {{Excerpt|COVID-19 vaccine|Adverse events|paragraphs=1}} perhaps it can be improved but the word "rare" in the preamble isn't necessary since the three bulleted points indicate themselves the incidence rates: "...one person per 250,000 to 400,000 doses ...", "...These affect about one person per 100,000...", "...0.3 to 5 cases per 100,000 persons with the highest risk in young males..."
The criticism about the non-English sources is the main part: Now the English version of the statement from May 2023 from the Paul Ehrlich Institute has been included: Statement from the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut on "Post-Vac Syndrome" after COVID-19 Vaccination (dated 19 May 2023) and instead of the translated quote (from the comprehensive safety report from June with earlier(!) data cut-off) above one now has an actual quote in English: "When comparing the absolute numbers of reports of suspected cases presented, it seems notable that at the time of the evaluation, more than 50% of all suspected cases registered worldwide (n=2,817) with these symptoms were reported from Germany (n= 1,547). It should be noted that by no means were 50% of all vaccine doses administered worldwide administered in Germany."
So now 3 of the 12 sources of the core article are in English (plus the 9 sources from the excerpt)--Lugioner (talk) 10:23, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Non-English sources are fine, whether the article is merged or kept. We are a global encyclopaedia. Some people are interested in things that happen in non-English-speaking areas, and for those areas, often the best sources are in the local language. Elemimele (talk) 18:39, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Our goal is "the sum of all human knowledge", not "the sum of knowledge known or cared about by English speakers". We have several similar situations, including the MMR vaccine and autism hoax (which really only exists in English-speaking countries; in France, they all "know" that the MMR is fine, but the Hep B vaccine causes MS, and in parts of Africa, they all "know" that the polio vaccine causes infertility). Disinformation tends to stay within language bubbles. WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:31, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or merge : The topic has clearly received attention in the German-speaking world. Regardless of if it is a "real" phenomenon or not, it is notable as a topic. The fact that it relates to German speaking countries is not a reason to say it should only exist in the German version of Wikipedia and not the English version. People who speak English and don't speak German may still be interested in learning about the topic, and there are plenty of English Wikipedia articles that relate to topics relevant to other countries/languages and not to English or English speaking countries: for example, Hikikomori. And it's not so much whether or not the adverse effects of the vaccine are the same in Germany as in the rest of the world or not that matters; it's that the concept is uniquely conceptualized in Germany that matters and makes it notable. Vontheri (talk) 20:29, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG and WP:SPORTCRIT #5, and violates WP:NOTDATABASE. While the article was kept at a previous AfD on the basis that winning an award from a Danish tabloid met WP:ANYBIO #1, and thus Leidersdorff was likely to be notable, in the 18 months since that AfD no one has been able to find additional suitable sources.

Even if an award from a tabloid newspaper is a well-known and significant award, an assertion that seems dubious to me, the failure to find any suitable sources is strong evidence that in this case it is not a predictor of notability. In addition meeting ANYBIO doesn't create an exception from the requirements of SPORTSCRIT #5, and thus if we cannot find any significant coverage we cannot keep the article.

  • Comment - What the nom has not mentioned is that the lack of SIGCOV is mostly down to the fact that Danish newspapers are not accessible outside Denmark for 100 years after publication, so in the absence of an editor physically located in Denmark it's not possible to check in what will be the principal source. However, a name search is still possible even if the articles themselves are not accessible (see Mediestream). Aage Leidersdorff died on 19 Feb 1970: in February 1970 16 newspapers mentioned him. In 1945, when he was awarded the B.T. sportsperson of the year award, his name occurs 24 times, doubtless in part because of the significance of a Jewish sportsman receiving the award in the same year as the end of the Nazi occupation of Denmark. I haven't checked other years. Without seeing the articles it's obviously not possible to gauge the quality of the coverage but it is possible to be sure that there's a quantity of it, and that there could well be more.

  • Keep, per Eastmain and editors at the prior AfD. We should be able to presume coverage exists (COMMONSENSE) for someone good enough to make the Olympics over a span of 1932-48 who was named the national athlete of the year in a country with close to 6,000,000 people (that newspaper most certainly gave an in-depth article with the announcement - also, per ANYBIO, we should be able to keep since the newspapers that covered him are not available). I strongly dislike the practice of BilledMammal and others to continually re-nominate articles which have been kept at prior deletion discussions because they dislike the outcome. Also, pinging participants from the prior discussion (besides two who have been blocked): @Løken, Jevansen, Garuda3, Geschichte, and Liz: BeanieFan11 (talk) 15:12, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    We should be able to presume coverage If we can find one example of WP:SIGCOV then we can. If we can't, then we are forbidden from doing so per WP:SPORTSCRIT #5, and a local consensus is not permitted to overrule that restriction - if you disagree with it, I suggest proposing that #5 is rescinded. BilledMammal (talk) 04:13, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Clearly there are times when exceptions need to be made, and WP:NSPORT (which includes WP:SPORTCRIT) agrees: [This] is a generally accepted standard that editors should attempt to follow, though it is best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply.

  • Weak Keep I wasn't able to find anything definitive in Danish to pass GNG, but there is some contemporary coverage available, and he was sort of notable for a fur business according to the Danish wikipedia. SportingFlyer T·C 16:12, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I believe there could be more out there but as we all know, our access to older, non-English materials is very limited due to factors out of our control. I think it would be highly unlikely of him to be a sportsperson of the year, own a store and make three olympics yet not be covered. See WP:SBEXT. KatoKungLee (talk) 16:56, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as WP:OSO is not sufficient grounds for deletion. Between his appearance in the documentary film (which no one here has watched) and the multiple obituaries in Danish newspapers in 1970 (which no one has been able to access but are indexed in the Danish Digital Newspaper Collection), not to mention the many other Danish newspaper clippings across all years (over 1,000 on the name which was admittedly passed down together with the family furrier business), there appears to be ample offline coverage that could satisfy WP:BASIC that we simply cannot access and do not have the language skills to assess here and now. The story of Aage Leidersdorff is more than "just a typical sports bio" as he was a Danish Jew competing in the Olympics before and after the Nazi occupation of Denmark, and was evacuated to Sweden during World War II (as discussed in the Jewish Olympians book). So in addition to the main Danish newspaper archives and books, I would also suggest visiting the Danish Jewish Museum library for additional sources.

  • While I'm not part particularly fond on these kinds of !votes, I am leaning keep despite the missing SIGCOV due to a few things: a) Winning the B.T. Guld award is a strong indication that an individual was a notable athlete. b) There is evidence on him getting coverage in the Danish media both when he won the award and when he died but we can't fully access them because c) Offline sources from that period seem to be impossible to fully access unless you visit a Danish library due to local copyright laws. d) I further found this coverage on him in the 1949 edition of Nordisk familjeboks sportlexikon that describes him as the "Nordics' foremost foil and saber fencer since 1935."

    @Jevansen For additional sources, I point to the above mentioned sources from the 1943 and 1949 editions of the Swedish Nordisk familjeboks sportlexikon where he is described as the "Nordics' foremost foil and saber fencer since 1935" and his career highlights are listed. Alvaldi (talk) 10:04, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. ANYBIO is irrelevant if the award is related to sports, as we had a global consensus that no sporting achievement can be used to presume notability directly. Same with NBASIC, as we also had global consensus that sportspeople articles must contain a citation to IRS SIGCOV. No such SIGCOV has been identified, and the ambiguity in Danish newspaper hits for him versus his father makes it pointless to speculate on newspaper coverage, so a redirect would be most appropriate to retain the history until we can access those sources.

Also FWIW, in my opinion if the proposal at that NSPORT2022 discussion was "all articles must have significant coverage or they must be deleted no matter how great their athletic achievements were even if coverage is impossible to find and we know it is near-certain to exist" it would have assuredly not achieved consensus.

    @Jay
    • Citation No: 1 (Source date: 06 Feb 2023) - The ABP Live article strongly promotes a campaign for maintaining cleanliness in villages, which is an essential responsibility for any sarpanch holding that position. Considering a general duty as a significant accomplishment is simply a matter of passing it off. However, it also falls under the category of WP:CHURN, as the article primarily focuses on the subject of hockey training for underprivileged girls and the sarpanch's donation of her salary to support the welfare of girls.
    • Citation No: 2 (Source date: 07 Jan 2023) - Firstly, there is disagreement about whether the LIVEMINT article is a reliable source. Additionally, it can be considered repetitive and lacking new information, as the article mainly focuses on hockey training for underprivileged girls and the sarpanch's donation of her salary to support the welfare of girls.
    • Citation No: 3 (Source date: 13 Feb 2023) - This article primarily revolves around her role as a sarpanch, which does not meet the criteria of WP:NPOL as it is not an office held at the state or province level within legislative bodies. Rather, it is a position limited to the village level.
    • Citation No: 4 (Source date: 06 Feb 2023) - For its coverage related to Indian domestic politics, foreign politics, and other topics in which the Government of India may have an established stake, there is consensus that Asian News International is questionable.
    • Citation No: 5 (Source date: 27 Jan 2023) - This is a repetition of the same theme - hockey training for underprivileged girls and the donation of her salary for the welfare of girls. It is WP:CHURN
    • Citation No: 6 (Source date: 04 Dec 2022) - Even though WP:THEHINDU meets the requirements mentioned in WP:RSP, it's important to mention that it wasn't written by one of their staff writers. Moreover, there are concerns about WP:CHURN—salary sharing, to support the welfare of girls.
    Please note that all the references cited fall within the timeframe of December 2022 to February 2023. This indicates a coordinated endeavor to construct and enhance the reputation of the Sarpanch.
    I will include a few additional Google news sources that haven't been utilized in the article yet. These sources can be used to further support the aforementioned point, particularly by emphasizing their theme (churnalism) and publication dates.

    CGGCA201 (talk) 07:24, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    You have listed the sources, but not answered the questions regarding the credibility standards per WP:BIO. Livemint and ANI may be removed as questionable. Not being written by a staff writer is not a requirement. None of the content about salary sharing is part of the article. In fact the article contains very less of the coverage in sources on her other initiatives, including sports. Are you saying that there are no credible sources, not only in the article, but otherwise, that have substantive coverage of the person? Jay 💬 19:19, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Certainly, I apologise for going off topic. To begin with, in terms of credibility standards, the sarpanch does not meet the requirements outlined in WP:ANYBIO. Furthermore, if we delve into more details, she also does not meet the criteria set by WP:NPOL, as she has not held a position at the state or provincial level within legislative bodies. Instead, her role is limited to the village level. And, As someone who has nominated this article for deletion, I have come to the conclusion, based on my research, that there are no reliable sources available, either within the article itself or elsewhere (including Google News, Google Scholar, Google Books), that provide substantial information about the individual.

I have gone through all sources and enhanced the article. I did not go through the non-English sources. I think they have the same coverage of topics as the English ones judging by the same images used in all editions. The coverage is very limited and related to 3 or 4 activities of the subject at the village level, but if an editor can find and add more to the article, then I may change my mind. 2023 is election year in Rajasthan and I would expect increasing coverage, but not wider or neutral coverage, unless the subject is elevated to district or state level. I wouldn't want to keep this as draft per WP:CRYSTAL just in case the subject becomes suddenly notable. The subject is promising but Delete for now as WP:TOOSOON, and may be undeleted in future if the political dynamics change. Jay 💬 07:51, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There is no mention of them in the sources cited in these articles.

  • Keep all: Now that sources have been added verifying that they really existed, they are presumed to be notable per Wikipedia:POLITICIAN. --StellarHalo (talk) 07:37, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – Dadri is wrongly mentioned as a princely state in the three articles, although it was an estate. And the subject of this AfD (Ajit Singh) was its muqarraridār, i.e. he occupied it by paying a fixed revenue rate to the British.
As of now, Dirk H. A. Kolff's source is the sole reliable source cited in these three articles. It has nontrivial coverage about Ajit Singh Bhati, but Shambhujit Singh Bhati and Dargahi Singh Bhati have a combined coverage of around 5 lines in it (see p. 149). So it seems these two don't need standalone articles and should be covered in some other article. Maybe for now a paragraph about the Dadri estate can be added in Dadri#History where both of them can also be covered/redirected. The Kolff's source doesn't mention their surname as Bhati. So all three pages are needed to be renamed as well.
Some details about Javed Rahi's unreliable book

The Javaid Rahi's source is cited in all three articles. But it is edited by Javaid Rahi, a Gurjar activist who specialises in Kashmiri languages. So he is not even a historian. More importantly, the author (Rana Ali Hussan Chouhan) of the cited pages was not even a scholar. He was a civil engineer belonging to the Gurjar caste himself. So this is a non-scholarly and non-HISTRS source, which is not reliable for history-related details. BTW, the details of the author (Chauhan) are mainly available on Gurjar promo sites, although his nephew also mentions in this interview that Chauhan was a civil engineer in Pakistan Public Works Department. Note that the 400-plus pages of Rahi's book, i.e. pp. 243–728, are authored by this Gurjar engineer. As expected from a nonscholar, the content is full of fringe theories, e.g. Kolff's source mentions (on page no. 151) that the subject of this AfD (Ajit Singh) died in 1812: "On 4 October 1812, Rao Ajit Singh died without issue." But as per Chauhan (see page no. 590), Ajit Singh took part in the Indian Rebellion of 1857: "Raja Ajit Singh had a vast territory but he was not granted a ‘Treaty Pact’ so Bhatis revolted vociferously in 1857. Consequently Raja Ajit Singh died fighting."

The rest of the sources are century-old unreliable gazetteers authored by British Raj officers or the nonscholarly government documents which plagiarise those gazetteers. None of them are reliable for history-related details – see WP:RAJ, WP:SCHOLARSHIP, WP:HISTRS.
In short, Ajit Singh Bhati seems notable, but Shambhujit Singh Bhati and Dargahi Singh Bhati should be redirected. Note that this observation is mainly based on the cited sources of the three articles and I have yet to make an independent search about the subjects. - NitinMlk (talk) 22:22, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
  • Oppose the false claim @NitinMlk I do respect your concern, but first of all, These articles are largely dependent on independent sources written by different writers, not on Javed Rahi's or Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan's. The second thing is that where Dargahi Singh Bhati and Shambu Singh (Shambhujit Singh) are mentioned as bhati, they are also clearly mentioned in the Quotes given from the citations. And also go and check; there are many references that Dadri's rulers were Bhati Gujjar and Bhati Gujjar clan clearly mentioned in the Quotes given from the citations, and I am the creator of Ajit Singh Bhati (also known as Rao Jit Singh Bhati) and Shambujit Singh Bhati (Also known as Shambu Singh) Singh Bhati's pages. So it's a wrong claim that Dadri's rulers were not Bhati Gujjar's second statements regarding Javaid Rahi or Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan because their references are not mentioned as first sources in the body of the article. If you have some problems with the Citations given by Javaid Rahi's book, Can be removed, but Bhati Gujjar is clearly mentioned by many independent historians. but if you have some issues why These characters mentioned as Bhati Gujjar go and read the Quote given from Refrences and also try to read these Refrences some are free or some are paid where Rulers of Dadri estate or Dadri's rulers clearly mentioned as Bhati Gujjar. Thank you so much for leaving your concern and being kind. ✝️✝️🕊️ Have a nice day Brother @NitinMlk.

أسامة بن عبد الله وليد, you misunderstood my comment. All three subjects were of course Gurjars belonging to the Bhati clan. I didn't even contest that fact. My comment was about WP:COMMONNAME, which simply means that if most of the reliable sources refer to the subject of this article as, let's say, Rao Ajit Singh, then that will be the Wikipedia article's title. BTW, Kolff's source refers to him as Rao Ajit Singh, which also seems like his WP:COMMONNAME. - NitinMlk (talk) 21:40, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, there is not a single reference. From the work of Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan, then why have you mentioned his work? The second thing is that, According to your claim, Dadri was not a princely state but an estate. Does it matter or meet the criteria for deliberation? Instead of providing any reliable source, you just try to make lame excuses by talking about Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan, even though there is not a single citation from his book and his books are not reachable digitally. You also talk about redirecting these pages to the Dadri town article, but why? Why not write a new article on Dadri estate or Dadri princely state in the future by citing reliable sources? You also claimed that Dirk H.A. Kolff just talked about Bhatti Gujjar in six lines. That's not the truth. I am leaving the Reference to Dirk H.A. Kolff. Book go and Read carefully. He talked about Dadri's rulers as Bhatti Gujjar, and he also talked about Dargahi Singh Bhati, Ajit Singh Bhati, and Shambujit Singh Bhati see this Reference on pages 138, 148, 461, 462, and 641.

Struck sock !vote. Abecedare (talk) 17:23, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, you mentioned that Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan is not cited in the articles in question. But that's not true, as he is cited in all three articles even now: see Ajit Singh Bhati's ref no. 4 and 6; Shambhujit Singh Bhati's ref no. 4 and 7; and Dargahi Singh Bhati's ref no. 4. All of them cite page no. 589 and/or page no. 590, which are authored by Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan.

Secondly, I never "claimed that Dirk H.A. Kolff just talked about Bhatti Gujjar in six lines." I mentioned that Kolff's source "has nontrivial coverage about Ajit Singh Bhati, but Shambhujit Singh Bhati and Dargahi Singh Bhati have a combined coverage of around 5 lines in it (see p. 149)."

Thirdly, Dadri was never a princely state. So I pointed out that mistake, as estates and princely states are two different things. You can read princely state to know more about it.

Fourthly, I mentioned, "Maybe for now a paragraph about the Dadri estate can be added in Dadri#History where both of them can also be covered/redirected." But of course if a well-sourced article about Dadri estate is created in the future, then these two subjects can be covered there.

Finally, please don't reply without reading my previous and this comment very carefully. Thanks. - NitinMlk (talk) 21:52, 30 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@NitinMlk
•1st Dear brother you're not trying to understand the base of our conversation.
First of all you're absolutely wrong and not using Comman sense that any refrences from the work of Rana Ali Hassan chauhan not mentioned in any citations at all. Brother do your research and home work again clear your confusion first or provide solid proofs that any writer mentioned in their books that they're writing about these characters by considering first refrences from the work of Rana Ali Hassan chauhan simple.
• 2nd thing is that all your false claims now have clear because Raj Era sources all I have removed.
• 3rd claim That Dadri's rulers never mentioned as bhatti this claim Also proven wrong and this article not dependent on the work of Javaid Rahi and Rana Ali Hassan chauhan totally wrong claim without any mention of these writers in the books of Dirk H.A Kolff or other Writers as refrences.
• 4th thing is that you totally try to manipulate the conversation by putting small excuses like oh! This was not a princely state but a Estate okay no problem but this small excuses can not meet the criteria for deletions.
• 5th read your previous comment again you said Dirk H.A Kolff only talk in 6 lines I have mentioned 5 to 6 pages where Dirk Kolf clearly mentioned about Dargahi Singh Bhati and Bhati Gujjar clan and Rulers of Dadri as Bhati same things also have done by all other historians.
• 6th Go and read citation research again Not any author of these books Used Rana Ali Hassan chauhan's work as first sources or they don't even talk or mentioned the name of Rana Ali Hassan chauhan.
• 7th thing is that it is not necessary to put In Dadri's town article about Dadri estate of Bhati Gujjar and by saying that you also point out that these two pages Dargahi Singh or Shambu Singh should redirect to Dargahi's town article at what bases brother?. You said because these two characters don't have Coverage in dirk Kolf or other's work you're wrong I have mentioned 6 pages from Dirk H.A Kolff's Book he talked about Dargahi Singh Bhati also Shambu Singh bhati Even he talked about Rao Roshan Singh Bhati but the link that I have provided is a paid work of Dirk H.A Kolff we can not entirely get access to his work without paying.
•8th Dadri's was an independent state established by Dargahi Singh Bhati, Ruled by Rao Roshan Singh Bhati, Umrao Singh Bhati, shambujit Singh Bhati, Amra Singh Bhati they all belonged to one monarchy and one family of Bhati Gujjar clan. Refrences given in the article will decided such characters have more or less coverage. Brother Your lame excuses like Dargahi Singh or Ajit Singh Bhati never signed a treaty with britishers etc and They paid tribute to Britishers such excuses are irrelevant here and Dadri was a princely state or just a estate also doesn't matter here. Totally irrelevant to the topic of Deletions discussion.
9th thing you should have to accept the fact that your claims like Dadri's rulers never mentioned as bhatti have already cleared, Britishers never Singh a treaty, these pages dependent on Javaid Rahi or Rana Ali Hassan chauhan's work also proven wrong, shambu singh Bhati and Dargahi Singh Bhati don't have Coverage also proven wrong by the given refrences and RAJ Era sources triggered you so I have removed all. Brother I am leaving best wishes and love for you and also mentioning the articles of Umrao Singh Bhati, Dargahi Singh Bhati, Shambhujit Singh Bhati, and Ajit Singh Bhati these 4 Rulers belonged to one monarchy one Gujjar family of Bhati clan. Amra Singh Bhati, Roshan Singh Bhati and some other Rulers from this monarchy have not yet any articles. Have nice day 😊 brother before claims must bring solid proofs!. @Liz@StellarHalo@Scottywong أسامة بن عبد الله وليد (talk) 01:06, 1 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
see Ajit Singh Bhati's ref no. 4 and 6; Shambhujit Singh Bhati's ref no. 4 and 7; and Dargahi Singh Bhati's ref no. 4. All of them cite page no. 589 and/or page no. 590, which are authored by Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan. You're absolutely wrong here. If Javaid Rahi in his book or any other writer doesn't even talk about Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan's work/book or doesn't even mention at the bottom line of the page that these references they take from the work\Book of Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan, then on what basis are you wasting your time, Brother? Please don't reply, brother, if you don't have any solid proof that any writer mentioned that they're talking on behalf of Rana Ali Hassan Chauhan's work.

  • Redirect to Calgary Catholic School District. I have spent some time searching for sources, but nothing significant at this stage. It could just be WP:TOOSOON - the school is quite new, although it is heading for its 20th anniversary. All the same, it is not very large, and doesn't appear to be independently notable. Per Clarityfiend, secondary schools are no longer presumed notable, and that is a consensus view from an RfC. However, neither did FormalDude say that they were - merely that such schools are usually the subject of sufficient coverage in sources to pass GNG. This is true, but at this point I do not see that for this case. The Calgary Herald articles have limited distribution, and an article about appointment of staff at what is essentially a local school is not sufficient in itself to establish notability. I do feel, however, that a redirect is a suitable alternative to deletion in this case. Redirects are WP:CHEAP, and searching on the name of the school with the place (per the title) is a plausible search term - particularly by people in the locality. Information on this page is almost entirely on the redirect target page, and that would be a suitable landing page for anyone conducting the search. I do not see that deletion prior to redirect is required - thus page history would be preserved should more sources come to light in the future, such that this could be expanded into an encylopaedic artice. As it may just be TOOSOON, it is entirely possible that such an article could be written one day. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 14:03, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect per Sirfurboy. IMO this is a better way of organizing schools coverage in general, if only because it affords a much less inviting target for the various kinds of abuse that school articles are traditionally subjected to. At any rate it seems like a substantially better approach here, where there really doesn't seem to be sourcing currently available that could support more than a permastub. It can always be spun back out later if sufficient source material is located. -- Visviva (talk) 03:06, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Maybe it will be helpful to summarize my recent nominations/edits. The NN creator of these articles was recently nominated by another editor. Not by me. After the article she wrote on herself, she created articles on her study friends and spun off their projects into seperate articles on their architectural firms. I only nominated these unjustified spinoffs. For this friend, who is just a NN person that has a job, she created a twoliner. In other words, nothing surprising about there not being an article on Hrwiki. For yet another friend she created a longer article that I only cleaned up. As always, I just reacted to what I saw in the articles and elsewhere to the best of my judgement. No spite or mass nominations. I will also not argue for any of the suggested resolutions.

  • Keep established in 1851 it is 172 years old.As per WP:NEXIST offline sources are bound to exist for such an old institution.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 06:48, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep very old, and seems to be mentioned in lots of old directories, which might be usable sources for its history, although they don't count for much in terms of notability. More importantly, it was the site of a major terror attack and there's lots of coverage of the school regarding that and subsequent closures of the school ([37]). Its sports teams also seem to be somewhat notable, participating in most of Mumbai's major school-level tournaments ([38], [39], [40]), and there's also some random coverage ([41], [42], first source is a bit questionable). Overall, the coverage is somewhat spotty, but that's because schools in India aren't usually reported on by local newspapers like they are in the US, and the age really makes it unlikely that this isn't notable.

Unclear why this person is notable, doesn't pass the criteria at WP:BIO. No depth of coverage. Lots of minor positions such as local councillor or chair of various committees, but nothing that would automatically grant notability. cagliost (talk) 19:42, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    • Being selected for an entry in WW is certainly an indication of notability. Not on its own, but contributory. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:31, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Per the criteria at WP:ANYBIO, an OBE is not particularly significant honour. UK "Who's Who" is somewhat selective, but it is not the Dictionary of National Biography. Given Lord's lack of "widely recognized contribution" or achievements, I'm just not seeing the notability. There are loads of non-notable local councillors with OBEs and entries in "Who's Who".
At present, the article is just an extended CV, just a listing of positions held with no accomplishments or analysis. I'm thinking WP:TNT and WP:JUNK. cagliost (talk) 12:31, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Lord is a trans activist and been involved with disputes over trans women using the "ladies pond" at the Hampstead Heath Ponds.[43][44] He was forced to recuse himself in a hearing over a trans worker's dismissal. [45] Also, some articles in the Daily Mail which of course aren't encyclopaedic references. WP:DAILYMAIL: variably reliable, reliably sensational.
I still think the sources for the article are sufficient.
-- A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 02:10, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@A. B.:, the Guardian and Inews sources you provide just have the same brief quote from Lord in his capacity as chairman of the relevant committee. These are Wikipedia:Trivial mentions, not examples of coverage of Lord as a trans activist. Given that, I don't think the Telegraph story is sufficient on its own for notability. cagliost (talk) 12:12, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • @A. B.:, could you clarify what you mean by "Keep per Necrothesp (except for the bit about Who's Who)"? Given that Necrothesp says only mentions the OBE and the Who's Who entry, and says the OBE is "not on its own sufficient to meet WP:ANYBIO", this appears to amount to a claim that the OBE is sufficient to meet WP:ANYBIO, which clearly it is not. cagliost (talk) 12:12, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

      @Cagliost Necrothesp wrote "Available sources sufficient to meet WP:GNG.". I read each of the journalistic sources in the article and they do establish WP:GNG per Necrothesp. I did not read any of the other sources. Regards, --A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 12:23, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete this is just a CV in textual form. There's a couple local news articles on him so notability's not at zero, but as it reads, this fails WP:PROMO and badly. SportingFlyer T·C 10:02, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I concur it's a lousy, promotional article. My understanding, though, is that if the subject is notable, we fix the article.
    I say this reluctantly as I spent 100s of hours as an admin 10-15 years ago mostly fighting spam; I always gritted my teeth at keeping notable COI articles. Now that I'm back, I still do.

  • Delete Most of the sources here are either not independent (e.g. organizations he works for or with) or brief mentions. Three of the sources that go beyond a mere mention are about a kerfuffle relating to the Football Association, and do not say much about him. The only other one I see that is substantially about him is brief and limited to a controversy that he is a Freemason. What is most telling, IMO, is that none of the sources provides biographical information, and anything in the article beyond the reporting on these two specific incidents is essentially sourced in non-independent sources.

  • Delete There are a lot of citations here, but the test for WP:GNG is significant coverage and in reliable, secondary sources and that is where we fall down here. A lot of trivial and passing mentions, but little enough in depth - although WP:ANYBIO tells us "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" but then also goes on, "trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability" - and much of the coverage in this article is relatively trivial. We fail WP:NPOL as an unelected member of various boards and committees and Who's Who is indeed not the national biographical database. (I note source 32, Andrew Gilligan's Sunday Times piece - which would potentially have been a strong source - has been taken down - and source 24, seemingly a strong Telegraph piece, is in fact a letter to the editor) And while there was indeed a whiff of controversy over lobbying, we have WP:1E... All of which adds up to the fact that we do, indeed, have the CV of an accomplished candidate for a non-executive directorship of a nice, public company - but ultimately I don't think there is a clear-cut case for this gentleman to be considered notable. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 13:22, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments/response: (1) WP:1E addresses the question of whether an article should be written about the individual, the event or both. It does not contemplate that we would have a notable event and a person involved in it, and not have an article on either. So if 1E applies, and presuming that we are not going to have an article on the Resignation of Edward Lord or whatever, then 1E would suggest that the article on the individual should be kept. (I would preemptively note that I'm not actually convinced that 1E does apply here, and also that WP:BLP1E does not apply here at all for the reasons explained at WP:LPI.) (2) As a technical note, I believe the above citation to ANYBIO is actually meant to go to WP:NBASIC. (Which is good, since ANYBIO wouldn't actually apply here AFAICT.) (3) Absent some indication that a piece was taken down for substantive flaws, I am not sure why that would have any repercussions for our use of it here. It makes verification harder (the Wayback Machine only has some teaser text), but the hard copy of the Times is presumably still out there somewhere. (4) As NBASIC itself implies, there is a substantial gap between "not substantial" and "trivial". The best analysis of what a "trivial" mention is can probably be found at WP:GNG, which describes non-trivial (i.e. significant) coverage as having sufficient detail that no original research is needed to extract the content. So if we were trying to piece this guy's life together from the various articles where he was quoted in passing as chair of the Inclusion Advisory Board, that would be a legitimate case of sourcing an article to trivial mentions. That doesn't seem to be what's going on here: articles like this and this, which are entirely devoted to the Wikipedia article subject, might still arguably be less than substantial, but they are certainly more than trivial. -- Visviva (talk) 02:41, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Still don't think he quite meets WP:GNG or other notability criteria. Had a minor role in the Richard Scudamore business, and mentioned in other news stories, but most coverage isn't about Lord in their own right. The story about him being a freemason is perhaps the closest to coverage about him, but even that is primarily an attack on his campaigning organisation by a newspaper opposed to their campaign (and hence only incidentally about Lord), rather than detailed coverage about Lord qua important person. With a bit more press coverage you might claim it cumulatively adds up, but he's not done any particular thing to make him notable. --Colapeninsula (talk)
