I've tried to fix the promotional issues, but this page is written so badly that to fix it would be a waste of volunteer time. The references given barely qualify the subject for WP:GNG, most of the surces don't count as WP:RS and there is nothing suggesting the subject is anything other that your typical mattress company.

Delete: An article whose text sets out the wares of a defunct company. I updated the article in 2018 to include the company's renaming and then demise. I then added a PROD notice with the rationale "This former company received some product coverage and listings in start-up awards but not the sustained and in-depth coverage needed for WP:CORPDEPTH" but I see the PROD was challenged. Looking again for sources (for both the Mobilegov and later Login People names and their main product name) I am finding mainly sporadic announcements from their lifespan which are trivial coverage under WP:CORPDEPTH. The most substantial source is the WebTime Medias posting about the firm's funding difficulties and closure - a thorough-enough piece which could contribute towards WP:NCORP but which does not in itself indicate any attainments which would be of encyclopaedic notability, so my opinion continues to be that this article fails WP:NCORP.

Delete I don't see any claims of notability, and I don't see any references. My search for references did not find anything significant to add. Jeepday (talk) 15:53, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Article was created by a virtual WP:SPA named "Analyticalassociates", whose edit history includes a reference to "myself, David Tate" in an edit summary — which means it's an WP:AUTOBIO. Not that there was actually much doubt of that, because it contains a lot of completely unsourced biographical information, with its only footnote being a one-off glancing namecheck of his existence as a giver of soundbite in a magazine article that wasn't about him. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be referenced a hell of a lot better than this, and people aren't entitled to put themselves into Wikipedia for the publicity.

Keep He is notable as NCREATIVE 1 "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors." Per Backstage, "Vocal coach Ron Anderson may be the man more stars turn to than any other. His client list extends literally from the Metropolitan Opera to Neil Diamond to Guns n' Roses."[1] Per WSJ, he is "a well-known voice coach who has worked with rockers like Axl Rose .. [and] uses the 300-year-old 'bel canto technique'."[2] I also found a profile of him, not yet cited in article: https://www.palmbeachpost.com/article/20120613/ENTERTAINMENT/812018726 Still, HouseOfChange (talk) 01:00, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment well, yes, he “may be the man more stars turn to than any other” but I’m not sure that’s the same thing as “widely cited by peers”. The 300 year old bel canto technique isn’t some special sauce this guy has rediscovered, it’s an absolutely mainstream technique taught by tens of thousands of people all round the world. Mccapra (talk) 16:08, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Mccapra: I believe there is a good fit to the first half of NCREATIVE 1: "The person is regarded as an important figure [in his creative field] ..." IMO, being hired by Warner Brothers to coach Tom Cruise for a movie that cost them $75M establishes that Ron Anderson was a well-regarded voice coach." HouseOfChange (talk) 20:30, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - The article gets promotional at times, and media coverage that is specifically about him is scant. However he has been covered in reliable sources in relation to his students. Applying the musical notability guidelines may be unfair because he is not a creative performer, but I think he has enough for the basic requirements for any sort of person at WP:NBIO. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 01:45, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This character appears in a storyline that is one of my all time favourites. I would be delighted if the article can be saved, but my BEFORE search suggests that there are not the sources to support such an article on Wikipedia. BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 22:12, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Its role in the Swamp Thing storyline should be adequately covered in the issue/comic series' article. There's nothing worth salvaging and I don't see a point in creating a redirect either. Haleth (talk) 01:36, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Commnet I'd support a merge into an article on the "American Gothic" storyline if there were one, but there isn't. It certainly be easier to find references for one.

Delete This is a premer example of everything that is wrong with Wikipedia. That this article has stood for 18 years is crazy, and example why Wikipedia never needs to have anything at all approaching a grandfather clause. This is a prime example why we need to start requireing that all articles be sourced to reliable sources.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:25, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment even scarier this article was previously kept. One of the reason for keeping it was that the Order of the Sacred Heart is notable. However even if we could estyablish her as a donor of all her goods to the Order of the Sacred Heart, that is not a sign of notability.

If asking me off course I want the article to be remain in wikipedia but it's up to you. I'd try my best. This is my reasons:
1)Sources from The Edge, The Wall Street Journal and Reuters already strong. Who doesn't know them right? The reason this media outlet cover this company off course because it well known. I'd also observed that there a lot of company page in Wikipedia that their notability low than this. Some only had one source and even worse that one source is not reliable enough. If that page passed why not this?
2)This company is LISTED company in Bursa Malaysia. It is Public limited company and publicly trade. Big and notable enough.(see references in page)
3)This company client includes Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd, ExxonMobil, Sarawak Shell Berhad, Sabah Shell Petroleum Co., Talisman Energy Malaysia Ltd., Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. Ltd, Keppel Corporation FELS, MHES Asia Sdn Bhd, Samsung Heavy Industries Co. Ltd, New eld Exploration Co., Woodside Petroleum PLC, Murphy Oil Sarawak Oil Co., Ltd. That notable enough to me. If some wikipedian don't ever heard about this company it doesn't mean its not notable. Who are we compared to that big companies that already be its clients.
4)UPDATED as June 22 2021,
Added source from Google Books
Delete No non-trivial coverage. The WSJ and Reuters "sources" are just stock price trackers, and all the other sources are either not reliable, not independent, or consistent of only trivial coverage. The fact that the company has had important clients does not make it notable by itself. When the best argument for keeping is that other stuff exists, then the article should not be kept.

Covert upe WP:ADMASQ on a non notable “businessman” and “Philanthropist” who lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of them. This is a tough one as their is a mirage of notability, but allow me explain this to you, A before showed this but there is no byline, which is indicative of a guest editor and this which also indicative of a pr sponsored post both of which are reliable sources but very unreliable pieces. Celestina007 (talk) 22:42, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This article is clearly written from a promotional standpoint and has some POV issues; notably, in the very first sentence, the claim of him being a doctor, businessman and philanthropist is cited to an article titled Las Vegas doctor denies allegations he runs militia accused of slayings in Nigeria. Huh???? Anyway, I don't know if he meets GNG or not. One thing I think should be noted is that @Celestina007: the BBC famously doesn't use bylines (see thesethreearticles from their front page today, none of which credit an author). jp×g22:51, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JPxG, I recently noticed that as well. Thanks for the comment JP, as for the notability status of the subject of our discussion, it is non existent. Celestina007 (talk) 22:56, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This clearly has several NPOV issues, but I don't know how someone could come to the conclusion this fails WP:GNG without discounting basically the entire Nigerian media. He's had multiple pieces of significant coverage in the Vanguard, The Sun, and the Nation, Pulse NG, as well as the BBC - I don't need to bring the LVRJ article into this. Also, this article doesn't look like a PR sponsored post. It doesn't count towards WP:GNG because it's an opinion piece, and there probably has been some PR planting, but looking just at the references in the article shows there's several that are general news coverage. SportingFlyerT·C18:59, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Per SportingFlyer. Yes their are clear issues, and the article needs some trimming of overly promotional material. But what’s left still satisfies WP:SIGCOV.4meter4 (talk) 00:14, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment — I can see how this can be very tricky and can be confusing for editors not familiar with the Nigerian landscape. In Nigeria, even our so called reliable media are very much corrupt and can accept financial reward from the subject of our discussion and fail to declare the piece as a “sponsored post” anything is possible in Nigeria if you have the right amount of money to bribe your way through. An important factor is to examine the sources used, read them closely and you’d see they are all promotional in nature. You can easily identify this as almost all sources used in the article all sound like, which is a take sign of a pr sponsored post. To prove my point, this very article has all the tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. The Nigerian media is very much exceptional due to the gross amount of corruption ongoing in Nigeria. Take a close look at the sources used currently in the article and you’d see the promotionalism I make reference to. Celestina007 (talk) 01:01, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I understand that, and I am not arguing that all of the sources in the article were non-promotional - some clearly were, and I took that into consideration with my assessment. SportingFlyerT·C10:07, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Please read the actual articles. They're a combination of purffer and promotional interviews. It's not just Nigeria--no country's newspapers are free from this. The overall reliability of a source fddoes not necessarily extend to all the content in that source, and the pur promotionalism by a likely coi editort make this all the more obvious. DGG ( talk ) 01:38, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The article is clearly biased and needs a lot of work but this does not seem to fail WP:GNG. Maduka has had plenty of coverage as a gubernatorial candidate, some promotional interviews but mostly standard election coverage that prove notability. Like SportingFlyer, I don't see an argument for delete without discounting basically the entirety of Nigerian media. Watercheetah99 (talk) 23:28, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It does appear that this individual has been covered extensively by RS - BBC Pidgin did a review of this individual, and it appears that this individual has been extensively covered by local Nigerian sources with regard to his attempt at the governorship of Anambra (although I make no comment on the general reliability of Nigerian sources). That said, this article is a hot mess of puffery as it stands. Best, BrxBrx(talk)(please reply with {{SUBST:re|BrxBrx}})18:15, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Both the corporation and the "news website" are lacking notability per WP:GNG- significant coverage, reliable, sources, independent of the subject. It's hard to confirm that it exists except by very raw primary sources (eg state corporate records). Further, it is far from meeting Wikipedia:WikiProject Newspapers/Notability.
Note this is NOT the historic newspaper, it's a website reusing the name.
This page, OSMI, was created in 2011 also. The organization was incorporated in 2010 and dissolved in 2018. Their address is simply a commercial post office box. Dissolution doesn't directly affect notability but still interesting. And I'm actually surprised this isn't directly part of the pink slime journalism network- that would make it MORE likely to be notable.
Redirect to Oregon Herald. I've searched several times in recent years for better sources and come up short. It's worthwhile that a reader who looks for this should get some info, but as stated in the nom, it certainly lacks the notability required by WP:GNG or any relevant standard including WP:WPNEWS/Notability. -Pete Forsyth (talk) 23:53, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There's no question Mr. Maxey exists. Either he or someone with his username created this article. He is, however, lacking in attributes that would pass WP:GNG or WP:NBIO.
His BBS existed, and he/the BBS got a few mentions (two paragraphs in a WIRED article), otherwise it's just self-promotion.
Delete The sourcing here is not enough to justify an article. I am less than convinced that the article on the BBS he founded meets notability guidelines either, but that can be saved for a seperate discussion on that article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:59, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article about a former footballer who made a handful of appearances in the 2007 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A while he was a member of Goiás' under-20 squad. He made one start and was substituted once the second half began, and the rest of his appearances were in the last 10 minutes of matches - a total of less than 90 minutes of play. While these appearances in the Brasileiro technically satisfy the presumption of notability in WP:NFOOTBALL, the presumption is invalid because the article comprehensively fails WP:GNG. There is no online Portuguese- or English-language coverage of this footballer which is in-depth or could be considered significant coverage (only database entries and match reports are available). Jogurney (talk) 17:50, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - there is longstanding consensus that scraping by on NFOOTBALL with one or two appearances is insufficient when GNG is failed so comprehensively, as is the case here. If sources are found please ping me. GiantSnowman11:28, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Is it appropriate to ask questions during these discussions? I went to the links on the right of this page ('new to AfD') and read all three documents. If the documents say anything about asking questions, I missed it. I hope it's OK, so I am going to move forward with my question. Full disclosure, I created this page, but I am also quite new to Wikipedia. There are a couple of early career awards on Wikipedia (with some listed at List of early career awards). In the sciences section, some of the awards listed have zero citations (e.g., Francqui Prize) while others have the bare minimum of sources (e.g., Otto Hahn Medal). Have those awards been on Wikipedia long enough that they were established under older guidelines that are no longer in use? Or, have I missed something else of note? Any input would be appreciated. Cheers. DaffodilOcean (talk) 22:22, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Asking questions is fine, and indeed encouraged. Wikipedia's standards for what can be kept and what ought to be deleted have grown Byzantine over the years, in response to the real complexity of building an encyclopedia that covers such a wide variety of topics. Sometimes, one page gets nominated for deletion while another doesn't, simply because the former page got noticed and the latter didn't. XOR'easter (talk) 00:41, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The information from Kj cheetham was helpful, I definitely fell into the WP:WHATABOUT category! The award does not meet notability. The other piece that I missed is from WP:LISTPEOPLE which is that the people who are receiving this award may not meet the notability requirements at WP:PROF. However, as time passes, the older names on the list are quite likely to become notable (as is already the case for the people who won the award in 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, and 2018; not all of whom have pages yet).

Sources provided are promotional and do not appear to be WP:RS in the sense that I'm not seeing that they have a strong reputation for fact checking.

The result was delete. There is a clear consensus that these subpages are not appropriate, as per current policy on subpages. Whether or how to include the information contained therein is an editorial decision beyond the scope of AfD. SeraphimbladeTalk to me02:52, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Despite the lengthy introduction to this page, it is a subpage, which isn't allowed on enwiki. It should be changed to a template, or directly incorporated in the main article. Fram (talk) 15:25, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge all pages with their parent articles per WP:SUB. The creator of these pages really was bold with the ignore all rules policy but in this case I don't think the end result is an improvement. Editors should be able to change information on a page without having to navigate to a transcoded subpage. Qwaiiplayer (talk) 15:56, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I would much prefer that the data be totally contained within the article, rather than transclude it from sub pages. If someone can tell me how to do it in a way that will preserve the ability to use visual editor on the tables, I will do it myself. I've tried and failed to find a way to do it successfully.
If I could show both tables simultaneously, there would be no need for the Switcher template. However, some participants at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Basketball#Proposal_for_player_stats are opposed to the presentation of season totals, despite the fact that virtually all places housing player stats include such information. My use of the switcher template was an attempt to accommodate that curious position, so that they would not have to shield their eyes from the totals table, and would only see it if they chose it. If someone could help me persuade them that presenting seasoning career totals isn't so horrible, there would be no need to resort to my approach.
I investigated whether I could enclose the data the code to make it hidden, and then show only the selected data via transclusion, but that attempt failed miserably.
I did find a way to do it without the use of sub pages — see User:Sphilbrick/Stats example, but the resulting table does not appear to be editable by as a table by visual edit.
If someone can show me a way to make the two tables editable as tables by visual edit, I can easily (okay not easily but I'll do it) transition over.
I'm not wedded to the sub page option. I don't even like it. But I would like to present a more robust list of relevant statistics in tables that can be edited, so if anyone has any thoughts on how to do that without using sub pages, please let me know.--S Philbrick(Talk)16:28, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment As an aside, it's not quite correct to assert
... it is a subpage, which isn't allowed on enwiki
the subpage feature has been disabled in the English Wikipedia
which is demonstrably false. The guideline goes on to explain nine examples of allowed uses and follows that with four examples of disallowed uses, then goes on to explain at length how to create, use, and find them. I did not miss the item 3 in the disallowed list. While I am a fan of WP:IAR when appropriate, that wasn't my rationale for taking this approach. While I concede it's a close call, it is my contention that I am not using a sub page 4for permanent content meant to be part of the encyclopedia — I interpret that restriction is not wanting readers to ever have to navigate to a sub page — I felt that the permanent content is translude it to the main page so I viewed this as complying with the rules. I concede it's a close call and I would prefer an alternative solution. I hope those contributing to this discussion can provide a better option.--S Philbrick(Talk)16:41, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I'm struggling even to understand what's happening (!), but as I've come across a few of these in the uncategorised feed, I can't help wondering... is AfD the appropriate forum for discussing what seems like a potentially heavy-duty policy question? Or is this indeed how 'case law' gets established, and if so, is there then some mechanism for codifying the decision for future reference? Asking for a friend. Cheers, --DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:55, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, the current policy is quite clear. From Wikipedia:Subpages#Disallowed uses bullet point 3: "Using subpages for permanent content that is meant to be part of the encyclopedia." If someone wants to change that policy, they can start an RfC at the VPP: but until then, these are not allowed, and AfD is the right forum to get them deleted. Fram (talk) 09:40, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fram, I take issue with the bald assertion that the policy is quite clear. I wasn't involved in the discussion leading to that rule soon slightly hampered, but I think it seems plausible him that those pushing for the role wanted to make sure the reader never ever has to visit a sub page. That's a reasonable goal. This doesn't violate that goal. The content of the sub page is trancluded onto the main article page, so it is transparent to the reader. An editor meeting to edit the data (which should be very rare only in the case of errors because it is historical data and should never change) needs to know how to navigate to a sub page but most editors with a two days of experience can handle that.It isn't at all clear that AFD is the right place for this discussion. After all, it isn't an article. Isn't AfD a place to discuss articles, whether the subject is notable whether it is supported by adequate and similar issues? NONE of those considerations apply. The data needs to be sourced but it is sourced in the article. Notability is a function of the subject which is relevant to the article not to the data trancluded into the article. The puzzlement of @DoubleGrazing: is understandable. I am trying to improve articles about women's basketball by adding career stats in the form of a table. Some members of the basketball task force pushback against the inclusion of career total as opposed to ratios. I am attempting to accommodate that view by presenting the data into tables only one of which will be immediately shown (the one including ratios) and the other will only be shown if the reader so chooses. That can be implemented with a template {{Switcher}} but it's not trivial passing tables as arguments to that template. An easy way to do it which preserves the ability to use visual enter to edit the tables is to place the data in sub pages and then transclude it. There are more cumbersome ways but it's not clear why we should invoke a cumbersome approach when there is a clean approach.@Elli: suggest moving to template space, but as @Nabla: points out, this doesn't make sense as each one will only be used in a single article. S Philbrick(Talk)20:14, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Sphilbrick: we should really have a separate namespace for "templates" that are only used in one - or a few - articles, but have significant Wikitext content that it makes sense to separate out. I actually do like the idea of subpages for this purpose, but I don't think an RfC for that would succeed. Elli (talk | contribs) 20:16, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The subpages have already been tagged (by others, not by me) as lacking categories, context, ... People do encounter these, via search, Google search, random pages, what links here, ... and then encounter an "article" which isn't an article at all. Which is basically the reason (or surely one of the main reasons) these subpages are disallowed. Fram (talk) 07:36, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fram, I am happy to address real issues but I'd like to stick to real issues.Your expressed concern that someone might accidentally stumble upon this using Google search. However, as you can see, it is noindexed, thus willshould not show up in a Google search (Of course, if you directly search for this exact name it will show up but that's true of any no indexed page, the point of no indexed is that it won'tis not supposed to show up in a general Google search.)I don't think it will show up if you use the random article feature. I've clicked on that button thousands of times (which I concede is short of a definitive proof) but it has never returned anything that is not an article. If it is possible, it should be corrected as the random article generator ought to generate articles not sub pages. Given that there are hundreds of thousands of legitimate sub pages (all talk page archives, for example) I find it difficult to believe that I would never have seen one of those sub pages if they could accidentally be delivered.DoubleGrazing mentioned stumbling across one in the uncategorized feed. I've never accessed that but I think I can guess what it might be. This sounds like a legitimate issue but could be easily addressed by creating an appropriate category. If the decision is not to sub pages I am open to suggestions for an appropriate category to help editors who managed to see them, and to make sure they do not show up in the uncategorized feed. S Philbrick(Talk)16:16, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Random article will only return pages in the main namespace, not in other namespaces, so logically you have never stumbled upon any talk page archives etc. But this is technically a pure article, just like any main namespace page with a "/" in the title, and will show up in "random". And it will show up in Google as well, it is the second result when I search for "Wikipedia "Tasha Pointer""[5]. Fram (talk) 16:26, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fram, If Google is indexing non-indexed articles, that sounds like an issue for the foundation to raise with Google not a rationale for deletion of a useful sub page. However, to be clear I am not advocating that the foundation spent any of its time on this issue unless someone can clearly identify the problem. (We have enough problems to resolve without spending time on non-problems such as this.) If someone happens to do that Google search and clicks on the link to the statistical totals, what harm has been created? I'm open to the possibility that the link to Tash Pointer should be more prominent, probably the very first entry on the page, but that simply means that the individual searching for information on Tasha has to click twice instead of once, and that only happens if they choose to ignore the first entry in the search. I'm on board with addressing real problems (I agree DoubleGrazing raised such an issue that's easy to address), but your list of issues are largely WP:IDONTLIKEIT. I am trying to make a significant improvement to basketball biographies and think I am succeeding despite the challenges. I recognize this approach is short of ideal, but within the constraints of wanting the ability to edit tables using VE, and the antipathy of some editors seeing career totals, this seemed like a reasonable approach. I've emphasized that I see this as short of perfect, outline the issues and asked for alternatives, but so far your response is simply that you don't like it so nuke it. S Philbrick(Talk)14:57, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Move to the template namespace, which is the proper location for pages like this. If VE doesn't support editing templates, that's not really our problem - get the devs to fix it, maybe. Elli (talk | contribs) 05:00, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all as unusefull (unwiki, I say) use os subpages. No point in moving to template space as they are not used across multiple articles. It is OK to merge/subst before deleting, though I doubt we need this level of statistics detail, but that is another issue - Nabla (talk) 12:17, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I've just removed all of the switcher tabs from each player's article. I don't think there's much of a use for them. Feel free to revert. RGrosjean51 (talk) 12:36, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
RGrosjean51, That was rather rude. This AFD is still open, and convention is that one doesn't do things like that prior to the resolution of the AFD. If you read the discussion you'll see that I didn't simply present the two tables because some members of the basketball wiki project object to seeing the totals. (Technically they object to the totals being included, but I used switcher so that they wouldn't have to see them, which I think accomplishes the same purpose.) Your removal of the template means both tables are visible on the article. Frankly, I wouldn't mind that as a result personally, but if Bagumba comes along and removes any of the totals tables I trust you will take the responsibility of dealing with that editor. We are nine days into this AFD so it is likely to be resolved shortly — what's so urgent that it couldn't have waited a couple days? S Philbrick(Talk)14:38, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I am astounded that Bagumba is objecting. I proposed something different at the basketball task force, and came up with this to meet the objections. I don't like how much work it is to create some subpages and use switcher but I did it specifically to address Bagumba's opposition to seeing totals. Bagumba doesn't like to see totals, so I crafted something so that this editor doesn't have to see totals. I still don't understand the objection to totals. See Harvard Crimson men's basketball statistical leaders, UCLA Bruins men's basketball statistical leaders, and 239 other examples in Category:Lists of college basketball statistical leaders by team, all of which list career, season and single-game totals without a single ratio to be seen. I am one of the more prolific editors of basketball articles and frankly don't recall any negative interactions with any of the other participants in the wiki project prior to this issue so I'm not sure what's going on but it seems difficult to believe there is this much antipathy to showing statistical totals in basketball biographies.--S Philbrick(Talk)16:07, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm just one editor. Others have disagreed with you. I'm not sure why you pinged me out of the blue, nor why you blamed RGrosjean51 and now me for the fact that you have not gotten any support for your preferred stats. You know how consensus works.—Bagumba (talk) 16:18, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Bagumba, I didn't ping you out of the blue. I am specifically responding to your deletion "rationale". I couldn't use the "respond to AFD" code which would have addressed you directly because you failed to sign your post originally. I responded before you cured that problem. What on earth is going on? Have I done something to offend you? S Philbrick(Talk)19:16, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't ping you out of the blue: You pinged me here. I was not involved in this AfD prior, nor even aware of the pages being discussed. Hence, you did ping me out of the blue.—Bagumba (talk) 03:52, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Bagumba, I didn't "blamed RGrosjean51" for the lack of support, I pointed out that it's not generally considered acceptable to make substantive changes during an AFD. How are contributors to this discussion supposed to make sense of why the subpages exist given that the material is fully contained in another article and the sub page now appears to be an orphan?Please don't misunderstand. I hope the edit by RGrosjean51 stands. I think it is a great improvement. It will make my life easier if that's the way to add the material. I prefer that approach. The only reason why I'm going through so much work is to address your objection. If you don't object to the edit by RGrosjean51, we can all go home. I'll personally delete every one of the sub pages and work on improving other articles following that model which I greatly prefer to the way I've been doing it. Does that work for you? S Philbrick(Talk)19:36, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The only reason why I'm going through so much work is to address your objection: It was your idea to create these subpages in mainspace—not mine. Please be accountable for your actions in putting your sandbox there; you already had User:Sphilbrick/Stats example. External links to stats sites can provide readers access to this content. The WP:ONUS is on you to get consensus to add more stats directly into Wikipedia. This site is crowdsourced. Sometimes what one thinks is "essential", everyone else thinks is WP:FANCRUFT.—Bagumba (talk) 05:59, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sabbatino, I am not using a basketball statistics template. You correctly noted that there are a number of templates which are inconsistent. You suggested they should be merged but no one wants to bell the cat. In the absence of a useful template, i am adding the headings without a template. S Philbrick(Talk)16:11, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
All of them are more or less the same except that the EuroLeague template has a field for Performance Index Rating (PIR), "Basketball" template has a field for "League", while the WNBA has a field for turnovers (TO). And I will once again repeat what everyone told you in the WT:NBA discussion – there is absolutely no need to list totals. That is just useless WP:FANCRUFT. – Sabbatino (talk) 20:41, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Statistics at UCLA Bruins men's basketball statistical leaders are different to statistics in BLPs. Such lists like UCLA's include all sorts of statistics, while BLPs list averages. Therefore, I have serious doubts about your ability to work collaboratively if you cannot see the difference between the two pages. In addition, your "attack" on Bagumba in this AFD quite clearly shows that you are not really interested in collaboration. We already told in the discussion at WT:NBA that the consensus is to list averages in BLPs (do not make me repeat this another 100 times) but you are clearly WP:NOTGETTINGIT. – Sabbatino (talk) 06:22, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The tables should be included in the players' articles themselves, rather than being transcluded from a subpage. This is how it works on most basketball players' articles. So yes, I support RGrosjean51's approach. Crossover1370 (talk | contribs) 19:59, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The supposed consensus is summarized at this diff.
I suppose this (three people plus the great majority of the internet) should act as a consensus now?
There are thousands of editors of basketball articles, but I'm supposed to accept that three editors constitute a consensus? That's not how consensus works. It may be that we need a proper RFC to resolve the issue. That editor also made the assertion that the great majority of the Internet prefers ratios. That's demonstrably false as I provided example after example of sites that use both and sometimes only totals. There is a slight preference for totals over ratios among the major sites, and that was before I stumbled across the 241 Wikipedia articles listing only totals. I honestly think that pointing out their world view was flawed caused them to double down on opposition to anything I propose. Perhaps it's the case that the NBA stats emphasize averages, but there's more to basketball than the NBA. My cursory review of these three editors suggests they are not major contributors to articles about women's basketball, my main area of interest. If they would like to propose that articles about NBA players emphasize averages, that's fine with me. Perhaps I should've just stuck to editing articles about women's basketball and not gotten involved in wiki project basketball but I notice the inconsistency of statistic templates and honestly thought there would be some collaboration about how to improve the presentation.
I honestly never expected such antipathy and vitriol from experienced editors interested in basketball. I know there are some fans of male basketball teens that look down upon women's teams but I naïvely hoped that Wikipedia editors would be better than that.
I don't accept the three editors who don't like totals constitutes a consensus, but I wasn't up for fighting a battle so I thought I'd try to be clever and come up with a presentation that could include the information for readers but wouldn't put it in the face of these three editors if they happen to stumble across the article. Again, perhaps I'm too naïve. Coverage of women's basketball is far less extensive then it is of the male counterpart. That's hardly surprising and I'm not asking any of these three editors to help rectify the situation. I'm happy to work on that along with other members of the women's basketball task force, but if they don't want to help, can they please stop actively fighting me? I honestly thought my approach might achieve my goal without treading on their abhorrence for seeing totals in an article, but I was wrong. As noted above, I am happy to follow the approach consistent with RGrosjean51's edit—it's frankly a lot easier for me than creating sub pages or using switcher with tables, but my fear was that approach would lead to these editors similarly deleting information about totals from women's basketball articles. I'll even promise never to add statistics to a biography about NBA players if that's their concern.
Despite the absurd claim:
I don't think basketball has as much emphasis on magic number milestones for totals like other sports
There are thousands of examples of women being celebrated for milestones such as a 1000 points or 2000 points in a career, a thousand rebounds and other milestones such as double-doubles and triple doubles. Maybe it's different in the men's game, I don't really follow it, but the notion that we shouldn't report such information because it's cruft is abject nonsense.
I can't emphasize too strongly that I have no particular desire to retain subpages for the holding of statistics – I created them in an attempt to address the concerns of three editors and it appears they aren't on board with the approach. I prefer to have the information in the article itself as several other contributors to this discussion have proposed, but my fear is the 60 or so articles I've improved over the last three weeks will be eviscerated if I follow that approach. If I get any assurances that won't happen, I will happily remove the sub pages myself.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Sphilbrick (talk • contribs) 12:39, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If the totals are to be included in the article, they should be included in the main article, not in a subpage. As for totals and women's basketball, I have browsed through the articles of several high-profile WNBA players and don't see a single one with totals. I don't know how these players' totals warrant inclusion in their articles. Crossover1370 (talk | contribs) 23:37, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, since I already casted my vote and others are disagreeing. I don't see any problems with reviews. They provide significant, independent reliable coverage of the subject. They are published by TechRadar (who calls it "a major VPN brand"), ZDNet, Tom's Hardware and PCWorld who all meet the WP:RS requirements. Apart from the reviews, the subject is mentioned in works published by academic publishers like Springer Publishing and Association for Computing Machinery and the acquisition has been mentioned in the news. Based on these sources, the subject can have a standalone article per WP:GNG, and can also be extended. The article is written with WP:NPOV in mind, I don't think it is promotional or spam at all. Also, the article has been extended since being nominated. Above of that, the nominator has been accused here of improper nominations and not following WP:BEFORE. PhotographyEdits (talk) 19:51, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Putting my reply here so it is clear it was posted after the relisting. @GenQuest: I was only discussing the nominator after stating my relevant argument. And the article does not fail WP:GNG, you are reading my comment the wrong way. It is only 'just' mentioned in the academic source by ACM.

Delete: I can't see the previous instance which was rejected at AfC and then deleted, but the comments left by reviewer Rich Smith on the article creator's Talkpage [6] look equally applicable to this newly-created instance. The article text does no more than describe the staffing and commercial history of a company going about its business, with no claim to encyclopaedic notability, and supported by references which fall under trivial coverage at WP:CORPDEPTH. Searches find more routine coverage of opening of offices, etc., but also past coverage of a problem in their software (BBC News: "Security flaw put RBS customers at risk of cyber-attack"). Were the article to survive, information about that incident should be added to the text and references. However I don't see that as evidence of attained notability for the firm.

Completely unreferenced article about a film director, not making any strong claim to passage of WP:CREATIVE. This literally just says that he exists and then lists his filmography without any content to contextualize its significance -- but as always, the notability test for film directors is not automatically passed just because the work exists, and instead requires evidence that he passes WP:GNG on third-party coverage and analysis about his work in reliable sources. And while two of his films have their own articles, one features absolutely no properly sourced indication of notability per WP:NFILM at all, and the other is of debatable notability at best as it's still in the production pipeline and has not yet seen a confirmed release date. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be the subject of a lot more independent coverage and analysis than this. Bearcat (talk) 14:21, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not notable business process. Was published as a doctoral thesis by Dr. Ralf Friedrich, but has received very few citations. It is being commercialized by a very small company (micro company according to this) which would be A7able, but the article is on the process. This does not meet GNG.
Comment to User:Eostrix - The tag that you are commenting on is wrong. It means that there is an AFC submission template in a page that is in article space. This can happen, as the display says, if the draft was accepted, but the AFC script did not complete. As you noted, this more often means that there was either a copy-paste move or an actual Move. The draft may even have been declined in AFC. The article should be reviewed, and usually cannot be moved to draft space because there is already a draft. The article often needs to be taken to AFD, as this one was. The tag is wrong. A few reviewers have been complaining about the wording of the tag for years, and no one seems to care about the incorrect tag. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:24, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Non-notable business process model. As noted by nominator, developed as a Ph.D. thesis that has not been cited much since. Reads like an abstract of the thesis describing the model. Was first submitted to Articles for Creation in draft. When the draft was not reviewed quickly (and AFC is still backlogged), it was then copy-pasted into article space, which can either indicate an attempt to game the system or impatience with the review process. The latter, impatience, is the good-faith explanation; the draft, which is the same as this article, would have been declined. Originator may be a single-purpose account publicizing the business process model, whether due to a conflict of interest or otherwise. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:01, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per WP:ATD-R, and if necessary protect the redirect if there's uany attempt to circumvent this process by a subsequrnt recreation. Redirects themselves don't have to pass GNG, so that's not an issue; they just have to be a reasonable search term.

Redirect to Ultrasonic Broadcasting System. The station doesn't yet meet the GNG, and this is an accepted ATD. I've tried to stay off the bench in these radio station topics (given that I'm one of the primary promoters of a rewrite of NMEDIA and these AfDs are part of that story), but as it is at least already clear that any SNG version of NMEDIA will be fundamentally aligned with the GNG, we can use that for now.

This article has been created by a series of cut and paste moves from other articles. Wikipedia requires attribution when material is copied from one article to another. The does not add much compared to Brahmic scripts and is a case of WP:CONTENTFORK. Besides that, the scope also has a big problem, what even is "ancient"? The Indus and Multani scripts are seperated by about 4500 years in earliest attestations. So then, are we just talking about "scripts found in the subcontinent of India"?

Redirect to Deep_Purple_discography#Live_albums - I will go with the flow on this one, simply because a redirect may be useful in the event that fans search for the title.

This article fails WP:NBIO on a number of levels and should be deleted. As written, this article fails WP:GNG as the individual appears to have NOT “received significant awards or honors” and has NOT “made a widely recognized contribution that is part of an enduring historical record in a specific field.” Further, the only national coverage pertains to a claim of fraud, which, based on a review of the sources, would not even rise to the level to be considered for WP:CRIME as noted: “A person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article if there is an existing article that could incorporate the available encyclopedic material relating to that person.” As a perpetrator, this person fails WP:perp as the victim is not “a renowned national or international figure, including, but not limited to, politicians or celebrities AND “The motivation for the crime or the execution of the crime is unusual—or has otherwise been considered noteworthy—such that it is a well-documented historic event. Generally, historic significance is indicated by sustained coverage of the event in reliable secondary sources which persists beyond contemporaneous news coverage and devotes significant attention to the individual's role.” If no consensus is reached on this second AFD, based on the need for additional WP:RS, editors should consider WP:DraftifyGhostDust (talk) 04:15, 8 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The standard for the GNG isn't “received significant awards or honors” and “made a widely recognized contribution that is part of an enduring historical record in a specific field.” The subject just needs to receive "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." There are more than enough references in the article that meet this criteria (e.g. [7][8][9][10] and the offline sources such as [11] and [12]). In addition, I believe the subject meets WP:NPROF since he meets the criterion of "The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources" as a widely cited author of academic papers (see Google Scholar).

No further reliable sources exist. Fails WP:corp “has received no or very little notice from independent sources.” Existing sources are little more than blog posts.

Delete: An article on a betting broker, with a history of WP:SPAWP:COI editing both before and after the previous AfD (which closed as no-consensus due to lack of participation, possibly would have been treated like an expired PROD nowadays?). The combination of listings, PR and blog items which serve as the article references (and are as they were at the first AfD) are insufficient, and searches on Samvo Group, SamvoBetBroker. etc. are not finding WP:RS coverage of the firm or of its apparent demise in 2017. Fails WP:NCORP. AllyD (talk) 06:21, 8 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This article is an extensive profile of Samvo. The article notes, "The name of the company, Samvo Entertainment Ltd., offers little insight into the business being conducted here, Bloomberg Pursuits will report in Summer 2014 issue. Samvo is a brokerage firm -- a bet brokerage firm -- whose clients are among the richest professional-sports-gambling syndicates in the world. ... Founded a decade ago by a former Hong Kong investment banker named Frank Chan, Samvo acts as a middleman."
The article notes about Samvo: "A British-registered bookmaker has been searched three times by police in connection with the largest criminal match-fixing inquiry ever undertaken in Europe, Telegraph Sport can disclose." The article provides detailed discussion about the company's background.
The book notes: "Ante Sapina, one of the main suspects in the Bochum case, made a peculiar statement in court claiming that he had fixed matches for gambling company Samvo Entertainment Limited (Der Spiegel 2011). Samvo, based in London but owned by Hong Kong businessman and politician Shung Fai Chan, strongly denied Sapina's story, and no proof to substantiate it could be found. It did transpire, however, that one of Samvo's employees had noticed the predictive value of Sapina's bets and started to copy them for his personal benefit (Spapens 2012)."
"Spapens 2012" refers to the source: Spapens, T. (2012). Prijs! The Hague: Boom Lemma uitgevers.
Keep per Cunard. With regard to subject-specific guidelines, the Bloomberg article is extensive and clearly satisfies WP:ORGCRIT. The Telegraph article does not go into as much detail, but still satisfies WP:ORGDEPTH and thus WP:ORGCRIT. I also consider Cunard's third source, this article from the SCMP, and this German article from the Spiegel significant and reliable sources — WP:ILLCON (which suggests that organisations ought not be considered notable only on the basis of sources covering its criminal conduct) does not apply, as all three discuss more than 'purely' the criminal conduct. The company, on the basis of these sources, passes WP:NCORP. I can nevertheless see why its Wikipedia article was AfDed, given its current state.

Non-notable radio station, article only cites their own website as source, and a search finds nothing even resembling RS sigcov, hence fails WP:GNG. I can't see the subject meeting WP:NRADIO, either.

Oftentimes, you can find at least something for the places with unusual names, but I turned up nothing useful for this one. Newspapers.com gives me scanner errors for "the crossroads", Google search brings up stuff about tuberculosis, and Google books brings up an appearance on a soil survey map and trivial listings in USGS directories of all known place names in Virginia. The topos don't even agree where this is; ones from the 1940s have it in one place, while ones from the 1960s and later have TB Crossroads on a different road a decent bit to the east. It's unclear what (or even really where) this place is/was, so I'm not seeing any evidence of notability. Hog FarmTalk03:43, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. State Auditor is a statewide elected office (now renamed State Controller). Wright was elected State Auditor three times. Also twice a candidate for Governor, once a major party nominee. Pages of statewide elected officials other than Governor are commonplace. I recently updated this page to include his role in a historic political event in 1974 when a Congressman was revealed to not be filing income tax returns for several years. Also the seminal litigation Wright v. Callahan on constitutional offices of state officials was embellished to include the extent of the case being cited in nine different states in the past eight decades in subsequent decisions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abrunelle (talk • contribs) 05:19, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

no evidence for notability .

Delete: Certainly several sources namedrop him. Which of the listed reliable, independent sources do you assert give the subject the "substantial coverage" the GNG requires? Ravenswing 00:24, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ravenswing, I have added a few additional sources. Certainly the Fanning biography of him (and the one of his wife) and the Lee treatment of the Chickering/ Haven family are substantial. Hurd and Slafter have biographies that are brief but clearly go beyond trivial mentions. I would also argue that many of the others, while not covering him in great depth, also go beyond trivial mentions. He may not be the central figure in them, but his name appears several times. The format of Grove, for example, doe not permit for lengthy treatments, but several facts about him are still expressed. Tolles is a similar case. The book is the story of a community, and Chickering features prominently in it, albeit at different times and in different contexts. It's not just name dropping. -- Slugger O'Toole (talk) 02:42, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Butthe multiple independent sources have to add up to something that's actually notable , not just to the collection of miscellaneous routine facts about his life. The nearest thing to substantial is is role in helping foundi the library--but theee doesn't seem evidence that he's responsible, just that he joined with 25 other is founding it, who were probably all the people in town who had some social pretensions and a little money. The problem with using local histories of this sort is that they are basically indiscriminate, including whatever they can get about whomever they can get. Two of the books are published by a specialist local and neighborhood history publisher, the others by publishers associated with thetown or the town newspaper. Books by such publishers aren't RS for notabilityany more than college yearbooks, important as they are to geneologists, . --if there had been substantial coverage from even one general publisher I might say differently, but for that o happen thee would have needed something worth publishing.

The result was delete. The point that none of the sources in the article provide any in-depth coverage is critical when evaluating the notability. WP:BCASTOUTCOMES is a rough guide, that says that "Licensed radio and TV stations are generally (emphasis mine) kept as notable if they broadcast over the air and originate at least a portion of their programming schedule in their own studios." This does not extend to local channels that broadcast to a small neighborhood. The extent of this channel is not clear from the article or this discussion and in any case, BCASTOUTCOMES is an information page, not a guideline or policy that can challenge the need for independent and significant sourcing.
Dude, just wait! or Keep: RfC on NMEDIA is ongoing, so just wait. You might be doing all this "work" for absolutely nothing. Just noticed, there are 6(!) refs in this article! More than meets GNG. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 10:47, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
GNG isn't based on the number of sources in the article but rather by the quality of the sources, and none of the sources currently in the article look to meet the requirements set out by the GNG.

SportingFlyer, source 4 indicates the station's service contract. Sources 5 and 6 (the creator of the article must've had problems in accessing the link) prove that the station originates some programming. Therefore, these sources (including 1 to 3) easily comply with WP:BCASTOUTCOMES and are definitely good enough for the article to pass WP:GNG. I have explained more than enough.

Keep. Easily satisfies WP:GNG (and WP:BASIC) as pointed out by Cunard. As for SNGs, WP:NACTOR (or WP:NMODEL, same thing) applies and Cheung satisfies two out of three disjunctive indicators of notability: "1. Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." A comprehensive list of productions in which Cheung had participated is on her corresponding Chinese Wikipedia page. Recent examples of significant roles in notable television shows include her roles in Fraudstars (2021) (ZH WP article) and The Witness (2020) (ZH WP article); both shows would fulfill WP:NTV had they had English Wikipedia articles. She also came second in Miss Hong Kong 2010 and went on to represent Hong Kong in Miss International 2010. "2. Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following." I am rather unsure what 'large' means in this context, but Cheung's Instagram account has 132k followers and is verified. I'd like to add that BriefEdits is completely right, there is much more information on her corresponding Chinese Wikipedia page. IndentFirstParagraph (talk) 13:48, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This virus seems to have very little notability because it has never been classified as a species by the ICTV and searching for it on PubMed, PMC, and GenBank returns zero results. Velayinosu (talk) 01:42, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment there is an archived link to ICTV in the external links section, where it is listed as a species. Surely this must be a synonym of something? Plantdrew (talk) 00:07, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
When I searched for whether this virus was a species, I used the search box on the ICTV's taxonomy page[16]. I've also checked a few of the master species lists and couldn't find anything. I spent about two hours just now trying to figure out if Beet yellow net virus was a synonym of another virus but just hit dead ends. It's possible that these two viruses (Beet yellow net virus and Millet red leaf virus) are synonyms of other viruses, but they may just be extremely unimportant. Velayinosu (talk) 03:21, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Google scholar yields 71 results. [17]. Many of them refer to "sugar beet yellow net virus". This is puzzling. Watching the page. Cinadon3608:14, 10 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Is "Sugar Beet yellow net virus" matching "Beet yellow net virus" though? If so, case is solved, we should keep the article. If not, there 's room for debate. Cinadon3607:22, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Even if it is a synonym of "Sugar beet yellow net virus", that wouldn't mean it should be kept since "Sugar beet yellow net virus" likewise has never been recognized as a species by the ICTV and is not found via GenBank. Those two things along with the relative lack of information and research about the virus should probably preclude it from having an article. Velayinosu (talk) 02:31, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment not finding a virus via GenBank shouldn't be an issue. Plant virology was a valid field before widespread sequencing. The ICTVdB entry for this virus contains references between 1948 and 1988, but mostly in the first decade of that period, when no one was sequencing anything. We can't automatically write off the whole of pre-sequencing plant pathology as irrelevant. On the other hand, this may not be a terribly notable virus. I have no idea of WP's guidelines on notability of a virus! Your average beet virus doesn't get its mugshot in a good newspaper terribly often. Elemimele (talk) 12:33, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Rubus yellow net virus is significantly more notable though since searching for it returns 6 results on PubMed, 19 on PMC, 33 on GenBank, 241 on Google Scholar, and it is recognized as a species by the ICTV. Velayinosu (talk) 01:45, 19 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. Beet necrotic yellow vein virus is a different virus. Having Beet yellow net virus in relatively recent (1995) reviews of viruses (not 1960s), like this ref [20] or in books like here (this is 2011) seem to be a proof this is valid virus/subject. Also see the list of Google scholar hits link provided by someone else above. My very best wishes (talk) 01:11, 27 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I feel a bit out of my depth here. Even if I were to read the literature more, I don't think I'd easily be able to say whether the virus studied in the 50s and 60s could be matched to a virus which is more well-understood using modern techniques (for example, has been sequenced) and can be found in recently published literature (or whether there is reason to think it is a readily identifiable virus which could be sequenced and otherwise researched if anyone took the effort to do so; or whether samples exist in freezers which might help clarify which virus is which). According to http://www.virology.net/big_virology/bvviruslist.html , https://www.prevalentviruses.org/virus.cfm , https://www.bionity.com/en/encyclopedia/List_of_beet_diseases.html , and https://gd.eppo.int/Beet necrotic yellow vein virus is a Furovirus or Benyvirus but Beet yellow net virus is a Luteovirus. All four sites have both Beet necrotic yellow vein virus and Beet yellow net virus separately, but I'm less sure whether I'm drawing the right conclusions from noticing that. If it is a lightly studied virus but there is no particular reason to doubt that it is distinct, I guess I'd conclude keep but I don't want to sound overconfident based on some sources which I may or may not really understand. Kingdon (talk) 03:32, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
With respect to "I have no idea of WP's guidelines on notability of a virus", I don't see anything specific to viruses at WP:SNG so we're probably back to WP:GNG which on the face of it would appear to be satisfied by the journal articles from the 50s and 60s (in light of WP:NTEMP). (Those are all sections of WP:N which isn't especially long). I'm not sure those links fully answer the question of what to do with this article, but perhaps they answer what notability is? Kingdon (talk) 03:45, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Having been written about in a journal article by itself should not automatically make a virus notable enough for an article. There are too many viruses in existence for that to be reasonable or feasible, and it doesn't acknowledge differences in publication type. In this case, it ignores the broader context of this virus having significantly lower notability than what the Virus WikiProject generally considers to be low notability (like the previously mentioned Rubus yellow net virus). If it is unclear whether this virus meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines, then more clear guidelines on which viruses can have articles can be created.

The result was no consensus. Including the nominator, the two editors supporting deletion did so based on a claim of there being no references, and the two editors voting to keep did so based on references that were added by gidonb. This results in a narrow no consensus. (non-admin closure)Jackattack1597 (talk) 15:49, 29 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This article about a Flemish think-tank has no sourcing, and I have been unable to find any significant coverage online or through old newspapers and journals. The article was created in 2006 with no sources, and it has not been updated to include any sources since then. Searching for coverage is a little harder given the language barriers and the name of the organization, but it does not appear this organization has any notability outside of the individual members. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 19:28, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It was closed in 2009 and re-established under another name. The new think thank continues to hand out their important award. gidonb (talk) 14:33, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Gidonb, other than brief mentions, are there sources that discuss the organization itself rather than its members? There do appear to be notable individuals involved, but it does not appear to me that the organization itself is notable, including from the two sources you added to the article – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 17:37, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Gidonb, neither of the articles you added to the article have any significant coverage of the organization. They are about individuals who were involved in the organization. One of the articles only contains a single mention of the organization [21], while the other only briefly mentions Nova Civitas in relation to several other organizations that were being used as part of a "climate skeptic network" by a group of "climate deniers in Flanders" [22]. What articles discuss the actual organization as notable? – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 18:17, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As I said before, there is no lack of sources on the think tanks and their operations, including already in the article. Its Prize is very notable and an important part of the operations of the think tanks and counts towards their notability. Next, I'm going to make a few changes in the general setup that will make the entire topic better understood! gidonb (talk) 02:09, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If the organization or its annual award were "very notable", there should be significant coverage of it in multiple sources, rather than a few short articles (only one to two paragraphs), none of which have author bylines either as they seem to all be based on press releases by the organization itself: [23][24][25][26][27]. The only other sources you have added are [28][29][30], which barely mention the organization and only in relation to the notable individuals who are related to it, such as Boudewijn Bouckaert. I appreciate you looking for sources, but can you find a single source with significant coverage of the actual organization? – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 04:43, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Libera, previously Nova Civitas, is a famous Belgian think tank. Operations include articles published, prizes awarded, officeholders. You keep trying but the latter is not the focus of the article or the references. There's much more online. Belga, BTW, is the main news agency in Belgium. Compare to Reuters or AP. Obviously it's NOT a PR bureau and their items are not press releases but VERY legitimate articles that go to multiple newspapers. Often when news agencies write articles, the newspaper will still edit these but do not need to write from scratch. So, typically, you will find either the name of the news agency or the journalist. gidonb (talk) 06:47, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Also, you recently added a large amount of information that is not supported by the source you cited [31]. Are there independent reliable sources for that information? – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 18:20, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Absolutely and thanks for asking! If you give your own diff another look, you will see that the ref was for the 2021 award line! gidonb (talk) 02:09, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Sufficient secondary reliable sources, ongoing significant activity of the organization in Belgium to meet notability. --Chefallen (talk) 16:24, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I respectfully propose that this article be deleted for several reasons in line with Wikipedia's deletion policy. The main thrust of my position is that this article fails Wikipeda's policy on notability for events.
1. Despite this story breaking on May 31, 2021, this story has already failed to generate attention over a sufficiently significant period of time (as of the time of this writing on June 13, 2021). The coverage of this story is essentially a burst of news coverage which per Wikipedia policy: "Brief bursts of news coverage may not sufficiently demonstrate notability." As this chart of LexisNexis results on stories mentioning "hitler" and "tenafly" indicates, coverage of this story petered out within 5 days of the story breaking. This chart is a rough estimate of coverage - it includes many essentially mirrored stories that are largely copies of others while also excluding some genuine coverage from local newspapers. However, this latter category includes less than 10 articles over the entire period, and just 2 after the first week. The Star-Ledger, for example, a newspaper based in New Jersey, whose articles are not included in the LexisNexis data, published only 5 articles on the topic (mentioning "Tenafly" and "Hitler"), four of which were within 3 days of the story breaking on May 31. A single Star-Ledger editorial was later published on June 10. In addition, one of the articles [1] included in the chart for June 11 is merely a summary and link to an article from NorthJersey.com [2].
Number of articles found through LexisNexis mentioning "tenafly" and "hitler" by day
2. Geographic scope: This article concerns an "event" confined to a single elementary school in a single town. The directly effected people number no more than 5: the student, the teacher, the principal, and the student's parents. This hardly seems of sufficient geographical scope to merit notability. Even if we include the individuals who took offense to the "event", unless we include every reader of any coverage, this would still be confined to the 172nd largest town in New Jersey.
3. No obvious lasting effect: Confined as this story was to a single elementary school in a single town and given the consensus among the coverage that it was largely an innocent mistake by a child and an unfortunate decision by a teacher, it seems reasonable to assume that this story will have limited broad lasting effects. The most recent news coverage of the story [4] already suggests the community is moving past the "event" and finding closure. At a minimum, this article might be userfied and perhaps republished if any future developments occur which would raise its qualifications for notability. In this sense, the original article seems to have been a rush to create an article before its fifteen minutes of infamy were up. By contrast, the sharp decline in coverage since the initial burst suggests, I would argue, that I am not too early to propose deletion. As stated, userfying this article at a minimum, might be a reasonable compromise until any further developments.
This is certainly borderline... I’m not sure which way to call it but I don’t think terribly much would be lost in merging to Tenafly Public Schools, there appears to already be a substantial blurb which wouldn’t gave to get much longer to fit all the pertinent information. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 18:58, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The nominaton, made by a WP:SPA, simply does not reflect the facts regarding the page (or in my discussions with the account on the talk page) in an accurate way. As I noted on the article's talk page, the dated search results that they have provided are innacurate and appear to outright miss news pieces that were included in the article as citations, not just the editorial. Even when I told them about this on the article's talk page, the nominator did not accurately represent this in their deletion statement.
The Lexis-Nexis database results are missing relevant sources that are cited on this page, so I am unsure that this actually overstates the amount of original reporting on the story is true generally (though it appears to be the case on some days). Some of these missing sources would appear to include the two published on June 10, when the database says that zero publication were made: this source from The Record and this editorial from The Star-Ledger. Similarly, on March 31, the database shows 1 source, though three are cited on this page alone. There's certainly a spike in the coverage when the story first broke, but the fact that Italian regional papers papers aren't providing daily updates on the situation doesn't detract from its notability; as I've stated above, the fact that there's ongoing coverage from reliable sources provides further evidence of notability.
The notion that the effect of this event is limited to a single municipality is unnecessarily reductive and doesn't reflect the situation at all. The Jewish community, not just in Tenafly but also in the greater region, was affected by this. Even the Anti-Defamation League wound up getting thoroughly involved. The coverage isn't just "this happened" but also "this happened + there was a regional response". The coverage of the topic among Jewish media, particularly in and around NYC, has been rather significant.
The topic has been the subject of in-depth coverage from a diversity of sources. These include sources based in Israel, Italy, Taiwan, the United States, and Canada. Articles from the United States were likewise varied by region; The Washington Post provided in-depth coverage of the event (which was re-published in the UK's The Independent), The Miami Herald, and NBC News approached the story with their own investigations. There is ongoing and continuing coverage of this, as I've shown on the talk page. And keeping in mind that the New York metropolitan area has one of the highest concentrations of Jewish people in the world (outside of Israel), it's not surprising that quite a few U.S.-based Jewish news sources with a more international focus (such as Algemeiner) are physically based in the region.
(original nominator, who is yes a WP:SPA but hope I'm acting in good faith here)
Point of clarification: The LexisNexis table was not intended to be a comprehensive listing of every source on the article, it was to show the **relative** volume of or change in coverage over time using one reasonable sampling of articles published (The LexisNexis database). That this database search missed some articles published in total is not the relevant factor, I argue, rather the change in volume is what I was trying to show to establish that this story qualifies as a "burst in news coverage" and thus not necessarily notable. Using the article's own current citations reveals a similar quick drop off in coverage. It might be claimed that this is a result of the editing on the page being completed, but if the editors were to go back and try to update it to account for more recent news, as the LexisNexis database suggests (even if it is just a sample and not fully comprehensive) they would be hard pressed to find much new to add even in just the last few days.

2. In good faith, honestly not sure what/if there is standard for adjudicating notability of a story whose main content is reaction by groups with agendas (using that term as neutrally as possibly) such as the ADL, quotes elicited by reporters, and a few non-notable (in the technical sense) people on social media platforms. In addition, how are we defining "Jewish community" and how are we defining "affected by" for people not themselves directly implicated in the action such that this alone would merit inclusion in Wikipedia?
3. Re in depth coverage, see argument above about 109 newspapers guideline . From my own analysis of the diverse coverage by international sources, it seems to be largely mirrored coverage of the underlying event which per the diverse sources guidelines are usually discounted. Where the stories do differ it seems is getting different sets of reaction quotes, which again goes back to this story mostly being about some people got rightly or wrongly offended by a child's innocent mistake and a teacher's unfortunate decision.
I'll try to respond briefly. The so-called 109 newspapers guideline isn't a guideline, it's an essay that has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. And, even if it were a guideline, it's clear that it's talking about not using the same news wire published in many places and treating it as if it constitutes additional sources; multiple independent sources not relying on the same reporting isn't the thing the essay attempts to address. The notion that Jewish groups more broadly have some sort of agenda here isn't true, and there's certainly lots of coverage from multiple Jewish publications on this issue (these include The Jewish Standard, JewishLink, JewishLink op-ed from the Simon Wiesenthal Center, The Jewish Press, The Algemeiner (June 1, June 9) and there's a joint letter that involves the Israeli-American Council. It seems like quite a few regional and national Jewish/Israeli groups have been involved here, which further indicates notability. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 01:35, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Merge / Redirect to Tenafly Public Schools - There does not appear to be justification for a standalone article.

Alansohn (talk) 15:21, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and do not merge. This story is a lot more notable than the school where it had happened - per sourcing and otherwise. This is really an ominous event showing in which direction USA is moving. The analysis in tables above proves nothing on the lasting notability (one needs a much longer period of time). It is notable enough right now, and that is sufficient.

This article is little more than a compilation of various minor figures and events of Chinese history. It lacks a narrative or theme that might turn a collection of details into a coherent story or article. A search of GBooks does not return any examples of the phrase "Head of the former Chinese imperial clan." Emperors sometimes appointed a few members of the previous ruling clan to minor positions. Many of the examples are sourced to primary sources. Has any secondary source considered this matter worth looking into? From looking over the article's references, I don't get the sense that anyone has. 99to99 (talk) 15:27, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This article was translated from Chinese Wikipedia. The Chinese title translates as, "Two crownings, three respects." The theme of the article is that the current emperor is showing his respect to a former ruling clan. This establishes the current dynasty as a legitimate successor of the previous dynasty. According to the opening paragraph, appointments from the Yuan onward were not considered crownings or respects. So later examples could be just people related to a former emperor who got minor appointments. 99to99 (talk) 04:59, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Split and Repurpose -- Much of the article concerns titles given by emperors to the families of ousted predecessors. That is potentially an article worth having, but not with the current title. The last section concerns pretneders to the Qing dynasty's imperial crown. This is an interesting topic, worth a short article. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:37, 6 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The ostensible subject of this article is a political institution of imperial china, and that's what the lead suggests. But I can't see it discussed as such in the sources, because all of the references are about individuals, or about something else. Therefore this looks like an originally-synthesized subject. Still it's possible that the institution is real, and that it has been discussed somewhere, but I am unable to ascertain that. — Alalch Emis (talk) 17:53, 14 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, possibly rename e.g. Veneration of deposed royal families in China. The article has a well-defined topic that lines up with its counterparts on other Wikipedia language editions: It is about the tradition that, when a new dynasty deposed an old one, the new king would grant a fiefdom to the royal family of the old dynasty, sometimes going back two or three dynasties. The article name may need tweaking but the topic definition is clear and there are ample reliable sources cited in the article. Deryck C.22:05, 16 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Why ? The article exists on the French Wikipedia, and although sources are not the best, they do exist. I could understand if you suggested a merge with the TO16 article though...
What other articles you wish to delete ? Again, they all exist on the French Wiki, and the have good sources (including manuals). 4throck (talk) 13:39, 7 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
*Delete: This is because the merge(content copy) of Thomson TO16 (prototype) to Thomson TO16 has already been done by the creator (and sole contributor) of Thomson TO16 (prototype) (In good faith but whilst under AfD but "technically" without specific pre-consensus). I don't really see the need for a redirect from a search point of view as anyone would likely look for Thomson TO16 so probably best to dump in. The is a possibly a marginal case for use of the redirect it it has cats appropriate to a 68k processor intel of an Intel (I think I'm right in saying that from memory and my memory has better things to remember) but it doesn't and I'd still by !voting delete if it did. But do a redirect if necessary but closer please do something! Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 07:45, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: It's taking some digging, but I found some coverage for one of his books. The coverage is sort of about the author as well to a degree as it discusses his faith and what he went through during the book process. I think we could justify a page for either the book or the author, but not really both. Since I don't think that this would lose much if it were merged into the author's article, my thought is that we should keep the author's article and delete the individual articles for his books.

Keep. Finding sources for this isn't really easy since there's a lot of junk hits out there, putting it mildly and nicely. He's best known for his street Bible, but there's some mild coverage of him as far as his death and his wife's book goes. It's not the heaviest coverage out there, but I also kind of get the impression that there's more out there, given the way some of the coverage is written. I think it's enough to justify a single article and rather than just have one on the book, I think it'd be best to have one on the author, since that way it can sort of cover his work as a whole.

Delete. I couldn't find coverage to show where this book is notable. This is kind of par for the course with religious books and honestly, most niche books in general. It's rare that religious books get coverage in the places typically considered reliable on here or coverage in general, as it tends to be more word of mouth and visibility on store shelves, neither of which are things that count on here.

Comment: This is taking a lot of digging, but offhand I'm leaning towards this being notable. There's not a lot of traditional coverage for this like there would be for say, a novel, but there were places writing about this. I think that this should either have its own article or be merged into the author's page, since I'm seeing some mild coverage for him as well. I think that we could justify a single page on him or the book, but probably not both. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。)15:44, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into author's article. I think that this would be better served having an article for the author, as quite a bit of the coverage talks about his creative process and some of his personal information. Per what I wrote above, we could have an article on one or the other, but not really both and I think that a page on the author would likely serve readers better. I've merged info from this article into the main article in anticipation of this. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。)16:01, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. This is clearly heading for deletion, and there's no point in prolonging the process. You may regard this as a combination of a WP:SNOW deletion and a CSD#G3 speedy deletion, as it is obviously a hoax. JBW (talk) 13:49, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I believe this is a hoax. There is no reference to the subject in Schama’s work as indicated by the reference provided.

Comment@Vedbas: did you do a WP:BEFORE on this person? When I did a searchI sawdecentsourcing. Also, "does not credibly indicate the importance or significance" is a speedy deletion criteria and not an AfD criteria. All that matters here is notability and the presence of good sources. It's also not true: the current article says she has 4M Youtube subscribers, which is an indication of success/fame/significance etc. --- Possibly (talk) 04:16, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You are using the wrong process. AfD is a week-long process; what you should have used was speedy deletion. Even so, I think she is notable and Speedy would have failed. Please stop nominating articles for AfD. I will leave a message on your talk page about this. --- Possibly (talk) 04:31, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
And the article, in almost the same form, was speedy deleted. It fails to make clear how she is significant or important. Given that Possibly indicates that it's fixable, I'll hold off on deleting it a second time. —C.Fred (talk) 15:04, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@C.Fred: I'm hoping someone who reads Filipino will come along and look at it. I'm not able to assess the Filipino languagesources on my own, but items like Cosmo in English look moderately promising. She also has 5 million subscribers on Youtube, and more than 500 million views. That indicates popularity, and I would assume there is more coverage in foreign sources.--- Possibly (talk) 01:29, 13 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: The article needs some clean up. Other that that, the sources indicated by Possibly seem reliable. A PEP article indicated fully talks about her life and career.

I've decided to make a pass over Idaho, which seems to be mostly in decent shape, but there are some dubious towns, such as this crossroads which happens to have farm buildings on three out of four corners, including one which has expanded over the years into a sizable dairy operation. Searching is complicated by the need to specify the county, but what I got beyond clickbait was accidental juxtapositions and references to a Fairview Precinct, which doesn't cut it for notability.

CommentOppose when searching the Russian name of the company, Тиротекс, you get 2,090 results on the news section of Google alone. The company has received 3 state awards (Order of the Red Banner of Labour, Order of the Republic and Order of Honor) and the article can be improved a lot by translating the Russian one (which only by taking a look at it, even without translating it, seems like a good and proper article that wouldn't get deleted in an AfD).

Nothing in article to suggest subject is notable. Article claims Rifkhan's company is the largest mobile and accessories store in Sri Lanka but the given source doesn't mention this - in fact its states that the company only had four stores (in 2018). Most of the secondary sources provided in the article are run of the mill business articles, not the multiple, significant coverage required by WP:BASIC.
The Young Businessmen of the Year award does not qualify as as well-known and significant award under WP:ANYBIO.
The article claims that Rifkhan has been given Sri Lanka's third highest national honour, Deshabandu, but the only source provided to back up this is Rifkhan's own LinkedIn profile which isn't a WP:RS. The Deshabandu article lists Rifkhan as a recipient but does not provide any sources (Rifkhan was added to Deshabandu by Gihan Jayaweera, the creator of the Rifkhan article). There was no national honours awarded in 2018 so if Rifkhan had received the Deshabandu award it would have been in 2017 or 2019 but none of the sources provided in the 2017 Sri Lankan national honours or 2019 Sri Lankan national honours mentions Rifkhan. The official gazettes for the 2017 and 2019 national honours don't mention Rifkhan. Therefore Rifkhan's claim to have received the Deshabandu honour is most likely false.

WP:BLP1E of a person whose only substantive claim of notability is a temporary blip of newsiness in 2020 when he served for a couple of weeks as a sign-language interpreter at COVID-related provincial government press conferences -- but apart from one alumni profile on the self-published website of his own alma mater, which is not a notability-supporting source, he has no substantive coverage at all outside of a one-week blip in late March and early April of 2020. This is not in and of itself a reason why a person would earn a permanent place in an encyclopedia, as it fails the will people still be looking for this article ten years from now test, but there's no other evidence that he has a stronger notability claim.

First off, the weaker claim: I don't think this article is notable, as none of the sources are reliable and I'm unable to find any reliable sources about the flag.
The stronger claim: I don't think the depicted flag is accurate. I can't find reliable sources definitively pointing either way, but I've gathered a fair amount of circumstantial evidence against that proposition.
First off, there is a clear way to explain how this incorrect flag could have circulated. https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/ng-sub.html cites a vexillology journal that I can't find (though if anyone has access to these libraries, I'd be curious to see what it says) to claim that a flag matching this description was the flag of the Katsina Emirate, a distinct entity. This article was published in 1984 while the state was created in 1987, so it couldn't possibly be talking about the modern state. However, the confusion may have led someone to create the image shown in the article, which then circulated across the internet.
Next, there's some additional questioning of this flag's accuracy in unreliable sources; see [39][40] for questioning of this; [41] has a different flag entirely (but also doesn't have any sources or even a real explanation)

This is an attack page. Although it may not fall under the strict criteria of the WP:CSD#G10 reason, it is a page that attacks its subject(s). There is no organization known as the "Sedition Caucus". The people listed as members of this "caucus" are not actually organized as a caucus or anything similar.
From the article itself:
"the Sedition Caucus, also the ... is a pejorative term for ... members of ... Congress"
"The term, referring to a Congressional caucus, does not refer to an actual organized group"
It is not self-evidently either of those things. !Votes without reasoning beyond links generally don't affect the outcome of a discussion. VQuakr (talk) 19:52, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as creator per WP:NEO ("it may be possible to pull together many facts about a particular term and show evidence of its usage on the Internet or in larger society") and WP:WORDISSUBJECT ("a word or phrase is often used as a "lens" or concept through which another topic or closely related set of topics are grouped or seen"). The article itself is on the term "Sedition Caucus", which has become widely used in the political world. The article also discusses the actions of the group of lawmakers dubbed the "Sedition Caucus", providing the necessary background for the term and spinning off tangential yet related content from the now-bloated article 2021 United States Capitol attack. Yes, the term itself is non-neutral, but it is unmistakably the WP:COMMONNAME (this is entirely acceptable, see WP:NPOVTITLE). Similar pages include axis of evil, Bernie Bro, death panel, outposts of tyranny, and many other articles included in Category:American political neologisms. Nowhere in the article does it assert that the Sedition Caucus is a legitimate group; it in fact says the literal opposite, as the deletion nominator helpfully pointed out above. This does not make it an attack page; rather, the page plainly documents a term and its historical context – that context being the Capitol attack and several Republican lawmakers voting against certifying Biden's victory. If a person finds that behavior objectionable, well, to tell you the truth, I can't blame you, but those are simply the plain facts of the situation. To pretend otherwise would be irresponsible. The riot and the vote happened, the term came to be, and as an encyclopedia we should have a page on it. The attack was an event which very quickly gained notability, and IMO the term "Sedition Caucus" passes WP:10YT. AllegedlyHuman (talk) 03:35, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Not an attack page, as you have already beentold. It neither exists primarily to disparage or threaten its subject and it is not unsourced or poorly sourced. Objections to the title of the article belong at WP:RM, not here. Objections to two specific sentences belong at the talk page, not here. The reasoning given here would suggest that Axis of evil, Trump derangement syndrome, Bernie Bro, and Karen (pejorative) would also need to be deleted. Sometimes, neutral factual documentation doesn't look very flattering, but that doesn't mean we should delete 2017 Cleveland Browns season, and it doesn't mean we should delete this. Egsan Bacon (talk) 03:40, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It definitely exists "primarily to disparage its subject". The subject of Congress members that voted against certification is already sufficiently covered at 2021 United States Electoral College vote count. To have this article in addition to that one, is an attempt to disparage to a further extent than the factual information already covered in the neutral-titled article. 03:46, 22 June 2021 (UTC) TOA The owner of all ☑️
Keep. It's a wiki-notable bloc of American politicians. Is it an unflattering name? Clearly, but there's plenty of pages on political factions whose names are less than flattering. The Copperheads were named for a venomous snake. There are Wikipedia articles on any number of pejoratives, including outright slurs, which have become notable by their usage and impact. "Sedition Caucus" has been used often enough to meet notability as I understand it. If there's problems with the POV, consider editing the page; there might be something to be said for criticism of the term, the members of the "Caucus" reacting to their label, and so forth (although also avoid undue weight). The page itself should remain. RexSueciae (talk) 16:01, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep As argued above, we do indeed have articles on pejorative terms, when we can write about them. (In addition to the examples already listed, Tankie comes to mind.) The sourcing is adequate to establish wiki-notability; I wouldn't rule out a careful merge to one of the other articles in our voluminous coverage of the January 6th coup attempt, but reading over the pertinent material, having these details in a separate page seems more convenient. XOR'easter (talk) 16:20, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The subject of the article is a thing that has a really non-neutral but probably common name (the proper WP:COMMONNAME doesn't have to be neutral). The subject is not a word per WP:WORDISSUBJECT (it is very dissimilar from something like Gay agenda), despite the article being styled that way (I find that kind of treatment of the subject to be okay regardless). This thing being the political phenomenon of there being this cluster of lawmakers taking an extreme and intransigent position, that breaks from political traditions. The phenomenon is notable and I see it being discussed as such, when it's trajectory is tracked even months later. Clearly the media who are continuously writing about this cluster are not talking about a word, but about something going on in the political realm, a thing, even when they write "so-called 'Sedition Caucus'". — Alalch Emis (talk) 16:30, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Passes WP:GNG. Also per the guideline WP:SUMMARYSTYLE, which allows smaller articles to be spun out of big articles. 2021 storming of the US Capitol is 450kb, so there is not really enough room to move all of this content to that article. And this content should be covered somewhere. A key feature of a WP:G10 or a WP:ATTACKPAGE is that it is negative in tone and unsourced. The sourcing on this article is excellent. BLP and ATTACKPAGE policies are not in place to censor negative material on living persons that is well sourced. If books and newspapers speak negatively of public figures, that is encyclopedic and does not run afoul of our policies. –Novem Linguae (talk) 16:49, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep seems an adequately sourced WP:NEO. May be worthwhile to revisit if an article makes sense at this location after some time has passed or if it would be better covered elsewhere, but the BLP/ATTACK concerns appear quite overblown. VQuakr (talk) 19:52, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, sources seem in order and while i can understand some may misinterpret this article as an "attack", the article begins with identifying the term as perjorative. While I assume good faith I also believe this may just be a case of WP:JDL. Oh, BTW google search today returned about 579,000 hits, either way this article will have to be monitored since it will most likely be prone to vandalism ETC...

Keep. Present sourcing or state of an article has no bearing on notability. The Spanish-language Wikipedia aricle includes citations to profiles/remembrances in La Prensa ([42]} and El Universal ([43]), as well as biographies of less clear reliability. A short blurb in Cashbox calls him one of the top Mexican singers. Gustavo Arellanocredits him with popularizing the ranchero song "El Muchcho Alegre" (a song he tongue-in-cheek writes "should be the Mexican national anthem because it has everything a Mexican needs for fun" ). He was the subject of an hour-long radio program in 1995, he released several albums, and from the tone of coverage in reliable sources, he was well known, at least regionally if not all of Latin America. WP:GNG is met, and additional significant coverage probably exists, but it may not be easily accessible online. It is likely that someone knowledgeable with Mexican popular music and/or with access to quality Spanish-language sources can find more in-depth coverage in relevant music sources. --Animalparty!
