Leimakids

AfDs for this article:

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

The one source cited in the article, Bane's book, only references Nancy Connor's Everything Classical Mythology Book, and looking at (maybe the wrong edition?) of this book, the only mention [1] of "Leimakids" is unsourced. Furthermore, I can't find any mention of "Leimakids" in any modern scholarly source, including pretty exhaustive works such as the DGRBM, Brill's New Pauly, and Pauly-Wissowa. As far as I can tell, there were no such nymphs as the "Leimakids" in Greek mythology; they are probably an invention of some recent source (perhaps Connor). – Michael Aurel (talk) 05:22, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I am seeing a small number of hits from decent sources on Google Scholar. There's a passing mention to leimoniad nymphs here (I think -- I can't access it). Leimakid nymphs, meanwhile, seem to be mentioned in Silvestre de Balboa's Mirror of patience, so are mentioned in this chapter. Certainly not enough to warrant an article, as far as I can see. Josh Milburn (talk) 08:53, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Checking the Oxford Classical Dictionary, the first source you've linked, the relevant quote is (at least in the edition I'm looking at): other nymphs were named after geographical features, such as the Leimoniads, nymphs of meadows, or the Acheloids, nymphs of the river Acheloiis. So it seems the "Leimoniads" (but not the "Leimakids" from what I can tell) do indeed have some basis in antiquity, as the OCD is a reliable source, though I am a little surprised I couldn't find mention of them in other reference works; the OCD also doesn't make very clear what its source for them is. To add to the obscurity, I've found a copy of Rigoglioso, the source Bane cites for the Leimoniads, and its list of nymphs, in which are mentioned Leimonides (nymphs of flowery meadows), is cited to this page on the quite often unreliable website Theoi.com. – Michael Aurel (talk) 09:56, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My German is entirely dependent on Google Translate, and I did not go beyond the lead sentence, which seemed clear enough, but I believe the relevant article in PW is "Leimones". Quickly scanning through the text, I am not seeing any of the other forms mentioned here. But it looks as though we have variant forms of the same name, of which "Leimakids" may be modern(ish). Perhaps this article should be merged with other articles about nymphs, noting the various forms of the name. P Aculeius (talk) 10:49, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've added the reference to the nymph article, to which I suggest the current page should be redirected. But I haven't included the name Leimakid; if anyone else thinks there's a good scholarly source for that name, please do add it. (Are they perhaps just different languages' transliterations of the Greek? I've no idea -- I'm no classicist!) Josh Milburn (talk) 15:47, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) I think you could be right that this is related, though it's a little hard to tell. The relevant section from Philostratus [2] does mention nymphs, so perhaps this was misconstrued into what we have here? Whatever the case, I'm inclined to say that, sort of along the lines of your suggestion, since we do have a reliable source for the Leimoniads, Leimoniads should be redirected to Nymph, and then Leimakid maybe should be redirected to Mirror of patience? – Michael Aurel (talk) 15:51, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Leimakides are mentioned in that well-known classical text, the Orphic Argonautica (646). (LSJ entry). (archive.org has the book, but it's still not fully functional and the page won't load - for me at least).

This single reference hardly merits them having their own page. A note in the 'relations and notes' column for Leimonides on the Nymph page really seems like it should suffice. I have no opinion on whether Leimakid should point to Nymph or Mirror of Patience. Genuinely fascinated as to how Connor managed to find that reference, though. ~~ Endlesspumpkin (talk) 18:22, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Endlesspumpkin: Ah, the Orphic Argonautica – well spotted! I think this answers where these "Leimakids" come from. As the LSJ notes, λειμακίδες is the form which appears in David Ruhnken's edition, whereas Johann Gottfried Jakob Hermann has λιμναίων, and I notice Francis Vian (the most recent and reliable edition) follows manuscript Ω in having λιμνακίδων. Considering these forms, and Vian's translation (Nymphes des Marais), these seem to be marsh nymphs (perhaps an alternative spelling of "Limnad"?) who've here been muddled up with the Leimoniads. – Michael Aurel (talk) 01:15, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose we're technically into the realm of the verboten here – unless we can find some authority who has thought to comment upon this very specific matter – but your speculation seems entirely reasonable to me (perhaps you could shoot off a quick note to a journal, and in a couple of years we'll be able to cite it...). We could plonk them in their own row in the table, and in the notes column we can explain the source for both of these words and point the reader to the Limnad page for a 'similar' species. Were the Leimakids page not already here, it's the kind of thing I would rather pass over in silence – herding cats is both easier and more enjoyable that classifying nymphs. Endlesspumpkin (talk) 09:32, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Endlesspumpkin's solution sounds right to me. Josh Milburn (talk) 10:30, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The chapter comprising pages 192–204 of this book is titled "Japan and Sweden: Two Countries Far Apart". Near the bottom of that book link is a "Notes" section consisting of 49 other references that may contribute to notability for this topic. If all else fails, I'd also support merging to Japan–Sweden relations. Left guide (talk) 04:09, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This is a notable incident due to the scale of casualties and significant global news coverage. Whizkin (talk) 19:24, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment — There are bad arguments on both sides here. I will note that "No information provided in the article besides from an infobox" is not a proper rationale for deleting an article nor foreign to the nominator. This article is not inherently notable because thirty people were injured, either. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 23:21, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This is a WP:News article, and a brief burst of news coverage does not count toward notability. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 23:53, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This is a very easy recommendation to make. There is global coverage and SIGCOV in Israel galore. With 40 injured this will also receive sustained coverage. Even with far less injuries. For good and bad, Israeli media and research go back to such events. Time and again. Also Speedy keep because the nomination defies AFDISNOTCLEANUP and SOFIXIT and no valid reason to delete was brought forward. Supporting a keep and a speedy keep, for different reasons, in the very same opinion as the outcome would be identical. gidonb (talk) 00:06, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deeside College

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

Badly written, barely sourced promotional article about a college that ceased to exist in 2013. At best some elements could be transferred over to a history section in Coleg Cambria. If you look at this edit and compare the section headings with those in this wayback machine snapshot of the college's history, you will see that it is very likely that the content is straight copy/paste copyvio - even though the original content was not archived by wayback machine and is therefore likely lost. However, you can see 100% that the list of college principals is lifted word for word from the the college history page. The content is highly suspect and a proper analysis might show a drastic revdel is needed. Best option is just to go ahead and delete the article. 10mmsocket (talk) 21:37, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~, badly written is not a WP:DELREASON (WP:CONTN). It clearly has the history and can also be converted to a contemporary campus article. Dissolved colleges don't lose notability. Merging all the colleges into Coleg Cambria would be messy as it is a multi-campus merged college, and like merging all of Cambridge's colleges into Cambridge Uni.

Can you re-read my reasoning above as I just edited it. Sorry. 10mmsocket (talk) 21:55, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Would WP:TNT apply? If it is specifically this version of the article needing deletion based on quality/copyvio issues, but the topic remains notable? Ideally needing a full re-write or re-do?

I'd argue it is still notable, regardless of when it ceased, and while it may not be a separate college anymore, it operates a distinct campus and programme within Coleg Cambria. Always was on my to-do list to convert to a campus and history article. Dank Jae 22:07, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Blow it up and start over would be wonderful. In fact I'd help you re-write it from scratch. 10mmsocket (talk) 22:21, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Conditional delete on the basis for re-write WP:TNT, but not on notability concerns (otherwise keep), oppose any merge. Del based on lots of potential copyvio revisions and mass unsourced content. Additionally, the article may be converted into the contemporary campus, meaning a re-write may have little resemblance with the current, as well as the sheer amount of review needed for the current unsourced content, so best TNT. Any links to the deleted article should be kept, in anticipation of a revival. Additionally lots of the content dates to a 2010 version (or before), so the sources may be harder to find today for that in-depth content and haven't been added for over a decade. However, still open to a keep and re-write, if there's agreement for the current version to be massively cut if not deleted. Dank Jae 22:53, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment TNT is an essay and not policy, but this may be an excellent case for using it anyway (and as IAR is policy, if that is an agreed outcome that improved the encyclopaedia, the fact it is an essay does not mitigate against its use). However, before !voting to delete with no prejudice against immediate recreation, could we sense check the notability? What reliable, independent and secondary sources cover the college from which the new article would be written? Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 12:37, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Forwardism

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

No sign that this neologism passes WP:NEO or for that matter WP:GNG. The word is used by BMW as a marketing tool and that's what a basic Google search finds (besides a bizarre fandom wiki). The Google books search is more interesting because it does get a few hits, but there's no indication that the word is used in the same sense in all of these contexts. There's certainly no source that studies it specifically as an ideology and no source that mentions "Advancementalism" as a synonym. Pichpich (talk) 20:13, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ireland Eurovision Song Contest entries discography

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

The discography and chart history of a nation's Eurovision entries has no relevance to the country's participation in Eurovision. Beyond the songs being Eurovision entries (which are already covered in more detail at Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest), how they charted in their country or elsewhere does not have an impact on the nation's participation history nor its success/placement at the contest. Grk1011 (talk) 14:44, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Additional nominated article for the same reasons:

The basis of this deletion discussion is based in the following policies/guidelines:

WP:GNG: The list lacks significant coverage in sources, with most supplied references being the chart positions themselves, with no added context. The article does not establish what grouping all of these songs and chart positions together is trying to prove, show, or discuss.
WP:NOTSTATS: The list of one specific statistic about these Eurovision songs only shows how they fared on one specific country's music charts (not even at the contest itself); it lacks context or explanation.
WP:LISTCRIT: The list is a synthesis of available information, compiled nowhere else in this level of detail other than on Wikipedia, for which the membership criteria remain somewhat unclear. The point of the article is just to identify a song's placing? To compare? Why only domestic charts? Why do other articles list the album they were on too? What text could be added to provide context without becoming WP:OR? How is this a "discography"?

Keep. The information contained is relevant to the UK charts more so than the Eurovision itself, which is highly notable. It is also a useful guide to how successful the songs were in the real world. The information is well sourced, so I see no reason to delete. The UK article has been in existence for 13 years and receives regular edits, so obviously has a lot of interest.

Keep Ireland Eurovision Song Contest entries discography. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding the nominator's rationale but, as noted above, it doesn't appear to be based on a specific policy. Not one I'm familiar with at any rate. To my mind, the main applicable policy is WP:NLIST. Which would expect the list subject/members to be discussed as a group.

There's generally a limited and standard amount of encyclopaedic information that you can say about a ward, which makes them well suited to just using a table.

Delete. While the subject is (along with pretty much every darts player ever) covered in directory-style entries on mastercaller.com, clickondarts.com, and others, the only darts-related coverage I can find (which deals with the subject as the main topic) is this piece about the 2008 Ireland Open Classic Players Championship. In general news sources, I can find nothing in the larger newspapers from Northern Ireland (nothing in Belfast Telegraph, Newsletter, etc). And only this and similar passing mentions on BBC sources. As the subject appears to be from County Down, I looked in local/regional papers (to see if there were any material "local boy done good" type coverage). But could find nothing in the Mourne Observer, County Down Spectator, The Down Recorder, etc. In general, the only coverage that were returned in my various searches were trivial/passing mentions in the Tyrone Constitution, Irish Examiner, RTÉ, RTÉ Sport, etc. And the subject's name being mentioned, alongside a bunch of others, [https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/least-darts-to-score-1000001-by-a-mens-team in a Guinness World Record attempt entry. To my mind, none of these results could really be considered SIGCOV.

All my warmest wishes, ItsKesha (talk) 21:28, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Irish Examiner article actually interviews the subject about stuff further than just his victory and is beyond just the routine coverage of "subject won match". Leinster Leader (Kildare Now) is still sigcov beyond discussing Paul Lim's nine darter in two of the paragraphs. Irish Independent article remains an op-ed that heavily discusses McKenna. Furthermore, coverage is available in depth about McKenna in Dartsnews.com. As well as this, there was a full length article in the Sunday Tribune in 2010 about McKenna which absolutely meets SIGCOV - though the article itself has been taken down, it's been reuploaded by the journalist who wrote the piece here.

Irish Examiner is blatantly routine coverage after a victory whereby he discusses his preparation for the next game. That's the entire article? /// Kildare Now is almost entirely about Lim's nine darter, with the exception of the final paragraph, where the "significant coverage" consists of a man saying he doesn't drink alcohol. /// Irish Independent is an article where we learn McKenna was, you guessed it, the man who stood behind Paul Lim as he hit the nine darter, we learn that he has a chest infection at the time of writing the article, and that he was once in a minibus that broke down near Drogheda.

All three remain articles specifically about the subject - and yes, you might find whatever's mentioned in the op-ed boring, that doesn't really matter in terms of the fact there's been a national newspaper op-ed written with several paragraphs about him. But even taking your definition of WP:ROUTINE (which if it was just "McKenna won this match" and no further comment from or about subject I'd agree with, but it's not, so it's not) at its best and throwing out the three articles you disagree with, that still leaves three other full articles that provide significant coverage of McKenna. ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 22:47, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
An article where 5 paragraphs out of 6 talk about Paul Lim's nine darter is mathematically not specifically about this bloke whatsoever. I never said anything was boring, I just literally described what the Independent article was? How a darts player prepares for his second game after winning his first game is very WP:ROUTINE, which is what that article in the Examiner. The Darts News article is five paragraphs summarising a 34 year career, one paragraph of which is about, yep, you guessed it, Paul Lim's nine-darter.

Delete. The Irish Examiner source is routine pre-match hype with roughly a sentence of secondary coverage N. Kildare Now has about two sentences of secondary coverage, with the rest being coverage of Lim, primary, or quotes N. The Independent source is a first-person OpEd; per policy this is considered primary and therefore unusable for GNG.

Several of those (e.g. randomly selected national Evening Herald and Sunday World) are of the newspaper size tabloid, not that they necessarily engage in tabloid journalism. Someone who has multiple sources attesting him as a national "household name" and "the best darts player" in the nation's history is clearly notable.

Comment: as a former WDF World Championship runner-up and World Masters semi-finalist, there appears to be a great deal of significant coverage of the subject in Welsh (Llanelli Star, South Wales Echo) and other (Liverpool Echo, Aberdeen Evening Express) papers, but a lot of it is hidden behind a paywall.

Is a six paragraph article that summarises a six year career really "significant coverage"? All my warmest wishes, ItsKesha (talk) 21:21, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is a 300+ word article on the then-second-best darts player in the world, as well as what appears to be a feature on 'Top of the World: Marshall James', count for notability? Of course it does. BeanieFan11 (talk) 21:41, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You keep describing him as being the "second-best darts player in the world" and this is just categorically not true. Are you seriously suggesting he was better than Phil Taylor? Two articles do not make significant coverage, especially when one of which you have admitted you have no idea what it even is. All my warmest wishes, ItsKesha (talk) 23:02, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You keep describing him as being the "second-best darts player in the world" and this is just categorically not true. – I'll admit I'm not super familiar with darts, but didn't James finish as the runner-up at the World Championships? Wouldn't being runner-up at the World Championships be second best in the world? And two articles can absolutely be significant coverage; the general notability guideline says that's all that's required for notability (two pieces of coverage). What do you think the odds are that a story titled, "Top of the World: Marshall James", is not significant coverage? BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:11, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
He finished runner-up at a (not the) World Championship and then proceeded to do absolutely nothing of note ever again. Does a darts player from Llanelli having potentially one article in a Llanelli newspaper, and a six paragraph article on a darts website, really count for notability? All my warmest wishes, ItsKesha (talk) 00:00, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Does having significant coverage from two independent outlets for a runner-up at a World Darts Championship count for notability? Absolutely if you go by GNG, which only requires two significant sources. BeanieFan11 (talk) 00:27, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So, to keep up-to-date. That's one "significant" source. And one source you freely admit you haven't read. All my warmest wishes, ItsKesha (talk) 00:37, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We're allowed to use common sense. The odds that both the 'Top of the World' source is insignificant and that there's no further coverage of him anywhere is incredibly small, especially given that Ser! has found paywalled articles in four additional newspapers. That you're unable to answer whether you've done any sort of WP:BEFORE search at all for over one hundred darts articles you've rapidly nominated or proposed for deletion is concerning as well.

@ItsKesha: What on earth makes you think I haven't? – because I asked "Are you doing any sort of WP:BEFORE search at all?" – and you responded that the articles are old, and then I asked "Are you doing any sort of WP:BEFORE search at all?" – and you responded that I need to AGF – and then I asked "Are you doing any sort of WP:BEFORE search at all?" – and you told me to get off your talk page – and then here you called it a personal attack, and when asked ... you responded that "What on earth makes you think I haven't? 🤣" – this absolute refusal to answer the question while nominating / proposing hundreds of articles for deletion is disruptive.

Stilt-Man

AfDs for this article:

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

This got restored recently after its prior AfD last year. It was restored per new sourcing, but this sourcing is nowhere near significant enough to verify separate notability. I've discussed this on the talk page with the editor who revived the article, and I will transclude the source analysis I left there for simplicity's sake:

1. A Comicbook.com listicle which gives a single paragraph among a large number of other characters. The actual paraphrasing of the source in the article is nearly as long if not longer than the source's own, and the actual source itself is really only saying "He's a fan favorite" with little to no other additional commentary beyond that. This source's importance I feel is being blown out of proportion in the current article as it stands.

2. A Game Rant source which doesn't contribute to notability per Wikipedia:VALNET. While there's an ongoing discussion for this, until that discussion's come to a close, the current policy should still be adhered to. Game Rant is a low quality content farm a large bulk of the time, and cannot be considered a good indicator of subject notability.

3. A MovieWeb listicle, which, while alright, is still only one half-decent source in what is evidently a character with very little Wikipedia:SIGCOV or coverage independently focusing on the character. MovieWeb is additionally owned by Valnet, but I am admittedly unsure if it is also a content farm to the same degree Valnet usually is with sources like Game Rant or CBR, or if it actually publishes solid content consistently like some other valid Valnet sources like Collider and TheGamer.

The only other source here that was a notable addition is a book source, which is only used to verify plot information, and thus does not seem to contribute toward notability. I left this detailed summary to the reviver on the talk page of the article, and received no response. Given the controversial nature of another BLAR as a result, I've elected to take this back to AfD to settle this. There's really only about one source that seems to give any degree of notability, and it's small and seemingly the only one to exist. As it stands, there doesn't seem to be any degree of substantial improvement since the last AfD, and this should be redirected back to the list Stilt-Man had been redirected to previously.

Plus, Lady Stilt-Man is her own character that is currently at List of Marvel Comics characters: L in the spirit of WP:PRESERVE. --Rtkat3 (talk) 18:29, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Restore Redirect & Merge New Sources - The non-plot summary content is still very weak. The sources used in the "Reception" section, even if one were to discount the discussion on the usability of the Valnet sites, is pretty trivial, with the discussion of the character largely just being speculations of "maybe he will show up in this upcoming movie/show/game". The Supervillain Book is far and away the most significant coverage added, and even that has very little commentary outside of plot and publication history summaries. So overall, I do not believe that there is still enough coverage on the character to justify a full article separate from the extensive coverage of the character already at List of Marvel Comics characters: S. Some of the newly added sources, such as the aforementioned book, should be added to that section, though. Rorshacma (talk) 19:11, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep VALNET doesn't say what the nom implies it says, and I assess that there are sufficient sources for a non-controversial topic to establish verifiability and notability. Jclemens (talk) 00:01, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"In general, these sites should not be used to demonstrate notability due to concerns over their content farming." While "opinions presented in editorials or list entries that satisfy WP:SIGCOV may be used sparingly to augment reception" there is only an augmentation factor and only when stronger sourcing already exists. There's not even enough sourcing to satisfy Wikipedia:THREE given Valnet doesn't apply to notability in this case. Has one ever considered Magneton?

Merge I don't believe the new sourcing is strong enough to warrant restoring the article (mostly being from Valnet content farms), although I'm not sure about the validity of the physical sources. Industrial Insect (talk) 13:41, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a musician and filmmaker, not properly sourced as passing inclusion criteria for either musicians or filmmakers. The attempted notability claim here is minor film and music awards that aren't prominent enough to clinch an instant notability pass in the absence of solidly reliable sourcing, but the article is referenced almost entirely to primary sources rather than reliable ones -- YouTube, Q&A interviews in which he's talking about himself in the first person, music metaverifying its own existence on Spotify or Apple Music, marketing content self-published by his own record label, his own social media accounts, etc. -- and the very few marginally (but not solidly) reliable sources are not enough to get him over WP:GNG all by themselves if the sourcing is 95 per cent garbage otherwise.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have much, much better references than this. Bearcat (talk) 15:39, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- 6 are duplicate entries
- 8 are to WP:IMDB or non-review mentions on Rotten Tomatoes
- 15 are WP:PRIMARY links to their work on Spotify, Apple music, Boomplay, Distrokid or Youtube

2024 Trump rally at Madison Square Garden

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

Fails WP:NOTNEWS and WP:TOOSOON. We don't need a page for every rally held during an election season, only if they are particularly notable (i.e. his rally in Butler, PA). I don't see anything that makes this one specifically notable; sure, there's been plenty coverage on the bizzare racist remarks made at it but that happens every time. CoconutOctopus talk 15:33, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Happy that this article has been improved enough to keep; if coverage does fizzle out in future then we can relist but consensus is for Keep. I'd close myself but as there's a few Draftify votes I can't. CoconutOctopus talk 07:28, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. Let’s wait until we get more information about the rally to put into the article.

Considering Tony Hinchecliffe’s comments could potentially cost Trump Pennsylvania, I think this rally will be looked back on as as a major event in the election.

I think the article should stay. ZachM097 (talk) 15:44, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dantheanimator Why would someone other than Trump making the most headlines make the rally less notable? MultPod (talk) 12:05, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep — agreeing with others. This rally has a good chance of being retrospectively well-known for costing Trump the election with the Puerto Rico joke, if he loses narrowly. If the election is not particularly close, or Trump wins, there won't be a compelling narrative to be made about it, so post-election maybe it will not have lasting coverage.

Redirect to rallies list article, 2024 presidential campaign article, or some other target; the arguments above are largely WP:CRYSTAL/WP:OR.

Dan the Animator 17:20, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't live in the US, and I follow news, but these are not my elections, so news come when something happens. This rally has been very commented abroad, so I think that it seems important by now. It's true that we don't know what will happen in the future, but there's plenty of coverage because of its relevance, and the reminiscence of the 1939 Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden, where this rally is also mentioned in the end. Theklan (talk) 17:39, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the reply Theklan! :) I'm an American in the U.S. who also follows the news a bit and agree that this has been getting a lot of coverage. But so have many of his other rallies in the past. It's common for a controversial/headlining events to get a lot of news for a short amount of time but per the nom, WP:NOTNEWS & WP:TOOSOON, it really doesn't need its own article. If there's persistent coverage after the election about this rally, the content can be split off from List_of_post–2016_election_Donald_Trump_rallies#2024_presidential_campaign or some other better target. Dan the Animator 17:46, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep updating my vote... don't have time to give a full explanation about it at the moment but earlier today I had a conversation with an American political scientist with lots of familiarity with this election cycle and it appears this rally is notable because, using my own words/understanding, it is a "key inflection point in the election timeline and recent American political history".

@Great Mercian: how can an assassination attempt be too soon or too late? I don't see how the events are comparable... Dan the Animator 17:35, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They are comparable in the fact that they are both notable. I agree with what @Theklan: said. It was reported on heavily both domestically and abroad, mainly for the racist things said during it. Instead of rushing to delete this article, I think we need to work on it so that it's presentable. Great Mercian (talk) 17:45, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Great Mercian: Notable in the long term? If Trump wins, this rally really won't be reported on at all after the election. I can remember many shootings getting a lot of attention here in the states who've had their articles deleted. I still don't see what the issue is with merging to the rallies list article. Dan the Animator 17:49, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The issue is that this is a lot different from other rallies. Its comparable to the Republican national convention. It is directly comparable to the 1939 Madison Square Garden rally and need I remind you, a lot of racist stuff was said, particularly about Puerto Ricans and Latinos (the latter being a group particularly supportive of Trump). Furthermore and I know this is breaking WP:CRYSTAL but at this point I don't care, this could have implications towards Puerto Rican statehood and that's why I think this article should stay up. I don't see why you're so hell bent on deleting this article when all it needs is a little work.

P.S. can you send me some examples of those deleted shootings? If I have the time I'll try to restore them. Great Mercian (talk) 17:58, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This rally has gained substantial coverage in reliable secondary sources. CJ-Moki (talk) 20:22, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify Right now, the premise of the article follows Democratic Party rhetoric that seems to be false. Specifically, that the location of the rally was somehow an intentional callback to the 1939 rally, a sentiment spearheaded by Hillary Clinton before the rally even started, and thereby the content of the rally can be assumed to be racist. But nothing in coverage suggests that there was directly racist language at the rally. Comments by Tony Hinchcliffe are, as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said on Twitter, was merely crude humor, that it's problematic nature was the context of Donald Trump's poor handling of Puerto Rico. Furthermore, even the comedian noted that the crowd was not enjoying his comedy ("this is a groan-y little crowd tonight"), and surrounding information indicates that the sentiments were not representative of the rally's purpose. While other speakers did say problematic things about the value of IQ, none of it was related to race. Neither were comments about illegal immigrants being largely composed of criminals necessarily racist, as the false narrative that illegal immigrants are largely composed of criminals does not issue directly from race. Essentially, the notability of the article is based from in-direct or objectively false claims, even if they do come from sources that are normally credible. But clearly not credible in this case, as not one of the sources was capable of giving a single example of racist language at the rally. If their articles were Wikipedia articles, we'd have to stick some [be specific] and [clarify] tags around statements that we are here using as a source. The fact that nobody noticed this is worrying to me. --IronMaidenRocks (talk) 20:29, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep, with the important concession that the article must be restructured to draw greater attention to the historical paralells with Hitler’s Nuremberg rallies, which are the primary reason for the rally’s notability. The rally is notable for its open, unapologetic endorsement of Nazism and fascism by Trump and was regarded as such by virtually all mainstream commentators all of which used the words “Nazi” and “Fascist” in discussing the rally. Since this is precisely what makes the rally notable according to reliable sources, we must reorient the article to reflect the analogy to the 1939 nazi rally at MSG and Hitler’s nuremberg rallies, similar events which also have their own articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fearless Speech (talk • contribs) 21:08, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There was no open endorsement of Nazism or fascism by Trump or any of the rally's speakers. That news articles used the word Nazi and Fascist is because of Hillary Clinton's drawing the parallel as a diminutive, not because there was a serious reason to draw the parallel. IronMaidenRocks (talk) 21:27, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - This rally was more significant than Trump's other rallies and has strong parallels to the 1939 Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden.

Draftify - WIKIPEDIA:NOTNEWS WIKIPEDIA:CRYSTAL The comments made at this rally were certainly horrendous and inexcusable, but this is not the first (or final) rally where Trump or his guest speakers have made notably bigoted comments which have been reported in the media. It is possible that this rally will continue to be discussed in the media and it may even have lasting impacts on the 2024 election (October Surprise perhaps), but until that can be definitively demonstrated or reported on, I don't think it merits having an article. Flangalanger (talk) 22:54, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am willing to change my stance to Weak Keep, as the article has been rewritten to include more sources and now has actual meat to it. That said, the section about Tony Hinchcliffe's speech is a pretty significant chunk of the article and if coverage of this rally fizzles out in a day or two, then I think merging it into Hinchcliffe's article would be acceptable, too.

Keep Trump has held somewhere between 450 and 500 rallies since 2015, and this particular rally has received far more in-depth coverage in reliable sources than the vast majority of the other rallies. The New York Times, for example, has published at least 25 articles about various aspects of this rally in recent days. Every reliable news source that covers US politics has covered this rally. Factors adding to its notability include the wide range of speakers including almost all of Trump's closest associates, the historic and symbolic location, the widespread outrage about the Puerto Rico and watermelon jokes, the rare fact that the Trump campaign distanced themselves from those jokes, and analysis suggesting that this particular rally may have genuine electoral impact. As for the opinion that we should wait until historians analyze the rally, we have policy language at WP: What Wikipedia is not that says the opposite: In principle, all Wikipedia articles should contain up-to-date information.

I'm a bit aghast at "I think there are too many articles about Turkish rail". We should welcome new articles that meet our policies and guidelines. With that said, I don't think these districts are notable topics for Wikipedia articles. There are zero sources in this article, so the best option is a redirect to Turkish State Railways.

WP:BLP of a politician, not properly sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NPOL #2. To be fair, Edmonton is a large and prominent enough city that its city councillors could qualify for articles if they were substantive and properly sourced -- but the only attempts at content about his work on council shown here are "he participated in various committees relevant to city governance" (i.e. did his job) and "utilized social media platforms to inform constituents about local issues and gather public feedback" (i.e. did his job), without stating or sourcing anything about the impact of his work.
We would need to see things like specific projects he spearheaded, specific effects his work had on the development of the city, evidence that his notability nationalizes beyond just Edmonton alone, and on and so forth, but there's absolutely none of that here.
And for sourcing, this is referenced entirely to one primary source (reduplicated as four distinct footnotes for no obvious reason) that isn't support for notability at all, and two deadlinked (but recoverable) hits of run of the mill local coverage of his decision to step down and not run for reelection next year, which is not enough to get him over NPOL's requirement for significant press coverage all by itself if it's the only non-primary sourcing on the table.
Simply existing as a city councillor is in no way "inherently" notable enough to exempt the article from having to be a lot more substantive, and a lot better sourced, than this. Bearcat (talk) 14:50, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: President Andrew Jackson was somewhat unique in his adoption of native American children. All of these should be kept: Theodore, Charley and Lyncoya. The issue with merging is that it would be too large for many readers. This is a substantive part of Jackson's life and should be kept. — Maile (talk) 15:37, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Aside. I object to the word "captive". That doesn't jibe with this article or Theodore's. Neither was captured by Jackson, and it seems to me to be a POV slur against him. Clarityfiend (talk) 09:07, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Clarityfiend It's funny, after reading the sources published in the last 20 years, I think I object to calling Lyncoya his "adopted son" but that's mostly me being emo and a different discussion that probably happens on generational timescales. ANYWAY, I assumed it would get moved at some point and I am very excited to see what another brain thinks of. My only caveat is that Theodore is not confirmed to have been Muscogee, and based on cultural norms of the time, was very possibly given as a gift/tribute by an ally (see Charley), so the title shouldn't be Theodore (Muscogee). I don't think it abrogates him being a captive that Jackson didn't personally throw a net over him and carry him home--Jackson had possession of a bunch of orphaned babies that didn't belong to him because he was a local warlord running a race war--but it doesn't need to be in the title of the article. But I don't know what else to use. Halp? jengod (talk) 14:33, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- ADD: We could arguably merge them both into Lyncoya as subsections. I didn't do that in the first place because these two were separate human people with distinct stories and their burial in brittle letters and footnotes for much of the past 200 years was not accidental. They were very intentionally excluded from the narrative. jengod (talk) 14:57, 23 October 2024 (UTC

Clarityfiend,Jengod: Another thought comes to mind here: we look at this through the eyes of our era. There is a old tradition in Hawaii, even now, called Hānai (informal adoption) whereby parents gave their children to others to be raised. One of the reasons in earlier years was because you weren't likely to go to war against someone who was raising your child. Hānai is still practiced there, for a variety of reasons. We don't know the background (do we?) of why Jackson got these native American children. But there might have been reasoning for it. — Maile (talk) 04:05, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Andrew Jackson's Native American pet"? He called him a pet, so no slur here against the esteemed slaveholder, we wouldn't want to do that of course. Fram (talk) 09:16, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The soundtrack is regarded by multiple outlets as notable for its bad quality, and a Venezuelan university report mentions its legacy of bringing attention to games in Venezuela. Whether AVGN promoting it led to more people paying attention shouldn't imo be a disqualifier.

This is the type of thing we can spin out for communities where there's actual substance for the list to contain, but it isn't a thing that every town or city in the world automatically gets as a matter of course -- but apart from "Establishment of Kilgore College", referenced to Kilgore College's own self-published website about itself rather than a WP:GNG-worthy news article, this otherwise consists exclusively of random population updates with no other significant or properly sourced events listed.
The creator of this has also tried to arbitrarily create a full-on Kilgore-specific WikiProject without going through the proper processes for that (or justifying why a small city with a population of just 13,000 people would need its own full-on WikiProject in the first place), which isn't a deletion rationale in and of itself but does suggest that they need some education in how Wikipedia actually works.
No prejudice against recreation in the future if and when there's substantive content to list, but we would need to see a lot more than just community population estimates. Bearcat (talk) 12:13, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No evidence that the history of this small town is voluminous or well-sourced enough to require a separate article.

Delete. The only sourced and relevant content present in this article but not in History of Kilgore, Texas is the 1935 founding of Kilgore College.

Keep. This one probably merits retention since it seems to have been a small but real town in years past, as noted in county maps and plat books from 1903,1904,1908, 1938, etc. There’s also a fair amount of newspaper coverage from the early 20th century, like this interesting tidbit from the Muncie Evening Press on 26 October 1900:
"Stockport, a little town six miles northwest of Muncie, which since yesterday has been located on the C., I. & E. road, has other claims to distinction than that being a railroad town. It is the home of William McKinley, cousin to the president, who bears the same name..."
The town seems to have had at least a Baptist church, a school, a general store (robbed repeatedly [41][42]), and a railway station[43], with other articles noting things like unrest over a local killing[44] and other lesser events. Whenever time permits I'd be happy to incorporate some of these pieces into the article. ╠╣uw [talk] 15:34, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Although I expect younger North American readers will be so used to fake news that they will assume that the Alaska Gold Rush was not in Alaska, and older readers will have been taught this at an early age, for people like me (as for PamD, America is a foreign country for me) it is surprising (even astonishing) to be taken to Canada. But thanks to the nominator for leading me to this fascinating article (and for significantly contributing to it). All I had known previously was from Charlie Chaplin's film.

Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:
People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.
- If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

Keep Generally we have regarded preserved steam locos either in operational condition or with long operational careers in preservation (they do inevitably come and go as boiler tickets expire) to be notable. I see no reason to act otherwise in this case. Sourcing here is adequate, there are no "extraordinary claims" requiring extraordinary sources.

This Afd doesn't just seem to be an WP:IDONTLIKEIT, it's an WP:IDONTLIKEWHOCREATEDIT, see User talk:Trainsandotherthings#Wanamaker, Kempton and Southern 65. That comes down to Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive1143#Australian_railroad_IP, a ban on an unpopular IP editor. This article was not created by an IP. If their allegation is that Insomniac187 (talk · contribs) is a banned sock, then I believe we have an SPI process for dealing with that. The correct response is to investigate that SPI first, not this 'round up the usual suspects' approach. We certainly don't blank existing articles without even discussing that through the article talk:, or by notifying involved editors.

Sourcing here mostly rests on a book by Brian Solomon (we should perhaps have an article on Brian Solomon) who is a very well known railway author and certainly WP:RS. I do not have that particular book, nor has the nominator. The other source is a good but very PRIMARY photo collection on the personal website of one of the long-term drivers of the railroad involved. This is far from a 'passing mention'. Yes, it's PRIMARY. But nor are we making the "extraordinary claims" here mentioned above. For the existence and basic history of a loco on a modern tourist railway, this is adequate sourcing. If US makers like H.K. Porter are anything like the UK makers, there are also plenty of erudite texts that would cover the design of this class and the building records of this batch of locos. If this were a Bagnall or a Stephenson loco, or a small industrial saddle tank here in South Wales, my own bookshelves would source that in moments – but if I can't do that for the US, surely there are other editors who can? Andy Dingley (talk) 13:54, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Andy Dingley, please check again who started this AfD. I have nothing at all to do with your aspersions about IPs, socks, dislike of the creator, ... Once that is done, I will address your other misconceptions or misleading statements. Fram (talk) 14:10, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Please comment on the article and the AfD, not personalising this into attacks on anyone who disagrees with it." after your previous post about the nom and the nature of this AfD? Oh well, that goes with your claim about "the other source" being "far from a passing mention". That sources wasn't in the article so wasn't included in my comment about passing mentions; as you well know, as I brought this very source to your attention in the AfD nom, and you then added it to the article. It is a source by a WK&S volunteer, so has no influence on the notability question beneath this AfD. The question is not about verifiability, not about "extraordinary claims", but about WP:NOTABILITY. The Solomon book, where you so impersonally stated "I do not have that particular book, nor has the nominator"; er, it is available right here, at least for me I can access the text about the WK&S 65 without any problems.

Are you seriously accusing me of wanting to delete articles solely based on their author? That is not my stance. I offered my opinion on the subject's notability, and that had zero to do with who authored it. I don't care if Vladimir Putin personally wrote the article, I'm going to evaluate it based on how it meets or does not meet GNG. Based on my interpretation of our policies and guidelines, it does not meet GNG. Please strike your aspersion directed against me. I am also very disappointed you thought it appropriate to link a discussion on my talk page and implicitly make accusations against me without even having the decency to notify me. I would much like if you took your own advice: "Please comment on the article and the AfD, not personalising this into attacks on anyone who disagrees with it."

As for the sourcing, since you linked my talk, you should have seen that Solomon's book dedicates two sentences to the locomotive. That's not significant coverage. I never asserted he was not a reliable source, in fact I have used his works in a number of my articles. I asserted the coverage does not meet WP:SIGCOV. I am disappointed that you ignore that. I expected better from an editor of your tenure than this.

Anyways, redirect to Wanamaker, Kempton and Southern Railroad. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 21:27, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, get off your high horse. You have already AfD'ed this article creator's other articles at Union Pacific 9000 and Dieselmotive Company, Inc.. I am not required to notify you and if you're busy discussing article deletion with another editor there are tells in the writing style that match the IP's editing style (and not through either AfD or even the article's talk: page) then I expect you to be aware of our regular practices that you'll at least notice an AfD page on it.

I don't even particularly disagree with you. If think this IP is socking, then file an SPI and do it properly. But we don't work by suspicion, and we have an AfD process, not just a secret handshake somewhere away from scrutiny. Andy Dingley (talk) 22:10, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I AfD'd them because they weren't notable. I found these articles in New Page Patrol, where I focus on transportation related articles. A scan of my contributions would make this quite obvious. I did not reference any sort of claims of socking (or anything to do with the article creator) in either of those AfDs, because I actually agree that doing so would be inappropriate. I was asked for my personal opinion and I gave it. What I did not do was advocate for targeting this article solely based on who wrote it. My arguments were based on notability.

Speculating about the existence of plenty of erudite texts is of no value to this discussion, and even if such hypothetical texts existed and covered the design of this class and the building records of this batch of locos, they would be of no value in establishing the notability of this specific locomotive as opposed to a class of locomotives.

From Me to You (Crunchy Black album)

AfDs for this article:

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

Per the first discussion, no evidence that this album is notable, and since the artist's page is just a redirect to the far more notable group he is a part of, this doesn't even serve a purpose as a redirect. No chart positions, no certifications, only one review that really goes in-depth about the album (the AllMusic writeup is more of an overview of the release, while the XXL piece is an interview so not independent), no evidence of notability to pass WP:NALBUMS. My attempt to have the page speedy deleted per WP:A9 (see the last discussion) was declined. JeffSpaceman (talk) 10:45, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - This is tougher than it looks because the album received a couple of pro reviews though they were pretty short. However, the rapper was declared non-notable outside of Three 6 Mafia in this recent AfD, so it's tough to justify an album article. The album's existence could be mentioned briefly at the Three 6 Mafia article, especially because Crunchy Black is still with them, at least intermittently. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:18, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Hum_TV#Romance: I don't think that this TV series is any special from all other series produced by Hum TV. Storyline/Cast is also not notable in my opinion. Only 6-7 episodes have been aired till now. Notability can be decided when the series finishes. Wikibear47 (talk) 13:41, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
there are many television shows that have similar storylines and aren't "special" from other series, which are still on Wikipedia. This isn't a fair reasoning for deletion since people who do like this series, and want to get information about it, won't have a space where they can check all of the details. Sabreen Hisbani is the notable actress in the show, she is one of Pakistan's biggest actresses working on shows like "Laa", "Parchayee", "Aunn Zara", "Mohabbat Tumse Nafrat Hai" which have all been very succesful. Either way, cast notability shouldn't matter if the show is coming from a large Pakistani network, with proper articles, details etc. If there are any details to be added, please contribute to the article. Add sources aswell. The show itself was announced less than a month ago (teasers, name, full cast was announced on October 7, 2024) so more articles should be rolling out soon. I have also added an IMDb for the show in external links and the official Hum TV website, which states alot of the details.

List of people who use their middle names as their first names

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

Lots of people in all walks of life go by their some form of their middle name. This is not an uncommon or poorly understood phenomenon. The sources by and large may verify that the listed person uses their middle name, but that isn't the focus of the coverage, because it simply is not really unusual or noteworthy to do so. There's simply no depth to this, it feels more like random trivia than something one would find in an encyclopedia.

Restore former title of article and keep, as the move was never discussed and made the article's title vague and unclear so that one editor could expand the article's purview without consensus. One editor should not be changing the article to their own specifications so that it becomes another vague list article, as Isaidnoway did here. The other suggestion is to restrict it solely to actors and title as such. Nate • (chatter) 18:26, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The other suggestion is to restrict it solely to actors and title as such. May I ask: why? Why does restricting it in this manner make the list more encyclopedic? Also, it seems like what you are proposing is already an article at List of stage names. Just Step Sideways ^{from this world ..... today} 19:18, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom, a mind bogglingly banal list of trivia that doesn't appear to notable enough for its own article, let alone a list of examples. What little encyclopedic information there is to say at the topic can be done at Middle name § Middle name as primary forename, and more or less already is. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 18:28, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This was an (edit conflict) with the above restore/keep, which now that I've read, doesn't sway me in the slightest. Restricting to "celebrities" is probably even more vague, as what constitutes a "celebrity" is generally subjective. It also doesn't make the topic any more notable. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 18:32, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This passes WP:NLIST because of coverage by the Independent, Deseret News, and (if the article is to be belived) this^[1] book. Some other sources in the references of the article may also be useful in demonstrating notability. McYeee (talk) 21:16, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Voluntary devil's advocate, but based on the sources shared a similar argument could be made for List of films with interesting titles: The Independent, Deseret News. Would an article built on these two sources pass WP:NLIST in your opinion? Shazback (talk) 20:33, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Assuming for sake of argument that those are the only two relevant sources that exist, such an article should be deleted. I don't think it would would pass WP:GNG because those sources don't actually establish that those films have interesting titles, just that those two publications consider them notable and there are no sources showing notability for List of films with titles considered interesting by news sources. You might be able to convince me that these sources actually do establish that the list is notable, despite not reliably establishing a single entry, but in that case, the list should be deleted for being completely unverifiable. McYeee (talk) 22:11, 18 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per McYeee's sources. I also found [46] as well as [47] to help out. It's worth noting that this and List of stage names are similar, perhaps I'll add this article in the "See also" section. Conyo14 (talk) 22:55, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. None of the above sources are good for establishing notability. You can find low-quality listicle churn on practically anything. Finding a couple listicles about something vaguely similar does not grant a license to just compile our own goddamn list of every goddamn person who goes by a goddamn middle name. This is bottom-of-the-barrel garbage, even by Wikipedia list standards, which is already pretty abyssal. Just once, can't common sense (and WP:NOT) win out here? Just once, can we not parade about a couple stupid listicles and go "omg NLIST NLIST, haha keep"? 35.139.154.158 (talk) 00:47, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Article should be reframed and possibly renamed if kept. Seems like the whole discussion is taking for granted that the use of one's middle name only seems novel if you are American or British *and* believe that using one's first given name is "conventional" or "preferred". The introductory section seems forced and a bit "off". Cielquiparle (talk) 22:59, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, my nomination is based on the idea that this isn't novel or uncommon at all. I imagine pretty much everyone knows at least one person who goes by a name other than their full given first name. This is about as encyclopedic and useful as a list of people who are named Robert or Theodore or Andrew but go by Bob, Ted, or Andy. Just Step Sideways ^{from this world ..... today} 23:05, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If those topics are as notable as this one, I would expect there to exist reliable sources listing such people. Are you aware of any? If notability isn't your reason for claiming the list is not encyclopedic, what is? I think that, per WP:USEFUL, uselessness is an argument to avoid in AfDs. McYeee (talk) 02:32, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I looked at the sources that you linked above, they are not WP:SIGCOV, they are basically "this is a thing that exists, here is a list of people who have done it" in other words, no better than the article itself. Just Step Sideways ^{from this world ..... today} 17:44, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
What would be an example of WP:SIGCOV for the purposes of WP:NLIST? How should I square your view here with WP:NLIST which says that "[o]ne accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources"? McYeee (talk) 22:16, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's the discussion part that is lacking. Those articles are a paragraph or two of reporting, then are just lists like out article. There's no depth to the coverage. Just Step Sideways ^{from this world ..... today} 18:32, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as a list with no point, and no sustainable future. As the blurb at the beginning of the list points out, in some cultures it is absolutely normal for the middle name to be used, not the first, so this list would have to include everyone born into one of those cultures. Meanwhile a prodigious number of people choose to use their middle name, so the list is doomed to grow to unmanageable proportions. We already deal with this by listing notable people by the name to which they are referred in sources (which is generally the name they've chosen to use). In the rare cases where a reader might go looking for someone by the "wrong" name, we can have redirects. There is no navigational value in having a list of notable people (or celebrities) who use their middle name. There is no cultural or educational value in the table. And as a side issue, since the table currently includes a column "full name/birth name" we have the issue that if someone has changed gender, we run the risk of either implying their birth-name is something that it wasn't, or dead-naming them, which we've agreed not to do, so by policy this column must either be renamed or removed. And on top of that, the list in its current form is somehow stuck between being more than it should be for a navigational list, and unconvincingly referenced as a stand-alone list (in that although it has copious references for the actual names, it has nothing much to justify that using a middle name is an encyclopedic topic). Elemimele (talk) 11:39, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
delete First, the actual title should be people who go by their middle names. But second, as the length of the list shows, this is a meaninglessly common phenomenon, particularly among celebrities, who may have more reasons than the rest of us do to avoid going by their actual first names in public.

Delete - indiscriminate information WP:NOTEVERYTHING JMWt (talk) 13:40, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete It is very common and quite unremarkable for someone to go by their middle name. None of these people are connected to each other in any way; this is not of navigational use for a meaningful characteristic. In some cases they've gone by the legal middle name since a child, in other cases they changed their names when they got famous (a short skim of bio pages didn't have any that found it worth explaining). I just don't see the significance here. Middle name is welcome to have more discussion with contextual examples if there are sources that cover this concept, but such a lengthy list isn't needed.

Draftify: This list meets WP:LISTPEOPLE since it appears to be a list of notable people who use their middle names. I think the original name should be restored to reflect this.

Delete, indiscriminate list. When I came across the title of this article while checking Isaidnoway's edit count stats (because I was curious about them after interacting with them at my admin recall request), I was shocked that it was still allowed here (even before discovering the AFD notice) and thought it was a holdover from Wikipedia's early days when we had lists of people by name ... I was very surprised that it was created in 2024. Indeed I've just discovered that in 2016 Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of notable anglophones known by their middle names was closed as delete.

Parkour Civilization

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

This article is about an insignificant passing internet meme that, like many others, fails the general notability guidelines. Every source in use here is from a tabloid, borderline unreliable source (save for Rolling Stone) that talks about a brief internet trend rather the series itself. To go into specifics, Daily Dot and Dexerto are tabloids that should be used with caution and cannot demonstrate notability per WP:RSP, IMBD is user-generated content and is unreliable as a result per WP:IMBD, and Times Now is an undiscussed source, but due to WP:NEWSORGINDIA it doesn't look good. And even if these sources were reliable, they are mostly just showcasing social media posts and don't actually hold any critical commentary. The show also fails WP:SUSTAINED, since every source was published in a short time frame, and nothing new has been written about the subject since as found by my WP:BEFORE searches. λ NegativeMP1 20:33, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, per well argued nom. There appears to be a dearth of WP:INDEPTH WP:RELIABLE sources on the topic of the article (and not a tangentially related meme [which also doesn't pass the bar of WP:N]). Only the Rolling Stone article meets all the criteria that are needed to contribute to WP:GNG, and we can't hang an article on one source. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 20:44, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete/Draft, as the page creator, I agree that it doesn't reach notability guidelines. Mainly due to WP:SUSTAINED like you mentioned. The page itself has brought myself a overload of anxiety due to the fact I thought for sure it was going to get deleted at some point. The Rolling Stone article is the only thing that actually gives anything insightful on the topic, but Wikipedia needs at least two reliable sources that meet the criteria to be considered notable. I am still new to Wikipedia, so I have no idea what the best outcome would be. The subject itself is only ~60% of the way to being considered notable, though, It could be possible it gains another notable source at some point in the future. (no idea if that'd be bringing it back to draft or just appealing it when the time comes)

Please do what you think is best for Wikipedia, but as for now I'd appreciate if it was sent back to draft space or deleted. ^-^ Kaixvny (talk) 22:37, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Technically speaking, there is no real "criteria" for what makes something notable or not. The notability guidelines only calls for "multiple" reliable sources. So depending on the depth of the sources at hand (multiple pages, academic coverage, etc.), that number could be as low as two, but many people writing about pop-culture topics sourced to news websites generally try and aim for three in-depth sources (though, again, this is not a requirement). But this doesn't really meet that anyways. With that being said, I'm sorry if worrying about if the article would survive or not stressed you out. It's just part of the learning process on Wikipedia that I have faced myself, as have many others. It takes a while to learn and get used to, but in the end it works out. λ NegativeMP1 22:53, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Right! I think i pulled the number two from HELP:AFD in "How to save the article.", I completely agree, and I'm glad this page is finally getting a outcome, it feels much more like breather than anything. As later on during its lifespan, I realized how much I stretched out the sources I had, and the fact it was a ticking time-bomb. Like I said, I still believe it it could eventually reach notability/better coverage in the future but not as of this moment, though could It possibly be shrunken down into a paragraph in List of Internet phenomenas? Honestly, it may still be too un-notable for that but I'm just thinking of other possible outcomes. Kaixvny (talk) 23:08, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Please take a look at the source assessment table I have created.

Source	Independent?	Reliable?	Significant coverage?	Count source toward GNG?
Source assessment table:
https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/parkour-civilization-minecraft-movie-cinema-1235124169/		Per WP:ROLLINGSTONE.	There is significant coverage about the video itself, and not just talking about it being viral.	✔ Yes
https://www.timesnownews.com/world/us/us-buzz/viral-minecraft-film-parkour-civilization-gets-removed-from-letterboxd-fans-outraged-article-113949603	Even though WP:NEWSORGINDIA urges editors to exercise caution, I don't see any reason to believe this is sponsored. Look at the tone and language of the article, its placement in the publication, use of generic bylines not identifying an individual reporter or reviewer, overlap in language with articles found in other publications and on other websites, and others. These issues do not apply to this article.	WP:NEWSORG per Times Now - no reason to believe a reputable news organization would be unreliable when it comes to reporting on a mostly Western cultural phenomenon.	Despite intermingled with quotes from Twitter, analysis of the plot and its significance is plain significant coverage: hustling culture, societal injustice, and income disparity.	✔ Yes
https://www.dailydot.com/memes/parkour-civilization-meme/		~ I've gone and read the closing comments at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 390#RFC (The Daily Dot). The main arguments against The Daily Dot's reliability has been on clickbait, [fusing] opinion with factual reporting, its political coverage, which do not apply much to this article, and there is the source is probably reliable for mundane reporting on internet culture. On reading the article I do not find too much bias in the reporting, so this is probably reliable.	~ Hard to salvage, but the sentences from the tale of an oppressed individual and The dramatic tone should be addressing the video directly and in detail as required in WP:SIGCOV.	~ Partial
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using {{source assess table}}.

Overall I believe these sources are enough in establishing notability per WP:GNG, and verifiable enough we can write an article on it. WP:NSUSTAINED appears to primarily talk about people and events, and for articles in other topics in general, no explicit words are given that sustained coverage is a requirement, but consideration should still be applied per context. 0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 07:31, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The sources provide very surface-level commentary on the show. The only third-party fact in the article (that is, not view count, voice actors, release medium, etc) is the fact that it inspired the meme "NO ONE chooses to jump for the beef". Any further coverage seems unlikely since the meme has already in its deathbed, unlike Skibidi Toilet or TADC.

Which article were you referring to? 0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 12:22, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I was referring to the Wikipedia article. The fact that there is a dearth of third-party content in the article creates WP:NPOV concerns, leading to WP:PAGEDECIDE considerations: Sometimes, when a subject is notable, but it is unlikely that there ever will be a lot to write about it, editors should weigh the advantages and disadvantages of creating a permanent stub. Ca ^{talk to me!} 11:18, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see. The article as it currently stands is not a permanent stub and works fine as a standalone article to me. I'm not sure what you mean by third-party content though. The article is about the video series so it would make sense to talk about the video series? It is unclear to me where the NPOV issues are. 0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 11:58, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I second Ca's comments. This isn't enough and what there is is basically flash-in-the-plan. And I would definitely say SUSTAINED should be taken into account regardless of it being a "requirement" or not. λ NegativeMP1 03:28, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You haven't told me which sources fail significant coverage and why. The articles I have listed do, in my opinion, [address] the topic directly and in detail. I'm not sure what you mean by taking SUSTAINED into account. I've read sustained multiple times and I am unsure how that can be applied to a deletion discussion. If this passes GNG, then it is presumed notable. 0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 04:12, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Except that it doesn't pass GNG. You're basically working with one and a half sources, and I'm personally referring to the Times Now article (not sure what Ca is referring to). What is there is very surface level, and it's still mostly just rehashing social media comments. It's the type of source that would be thrown out in most deletion discussions. And the Daily Dot should be disqualified to establish notability due to its faultiness as a source. If another source or two came out then it'd be fine, but right now it's too soon. And applying SUSTAINED to a deletion discussion is very simple: maybe it's a bad sign for whether or not something is actually notable if all of the coverage that exists for a subject was published in the span of a few days, and then never again. λ NegativeMP1 16:09, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've explained why Daily Dot should not be completely disqualified, and I'd like to hear more reasoning than just affirming its faultiness as a source.

As for Times Now, I'm really not sure what you mean by surface level when the third and fourth paragraph addresses the film directly and in detail. I do agree that the way it is written sounds AI-y and I am less enthusiastic about that.

On the whole, I still believe this passes GNG, even if just on the border line. 0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 17:58, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If a source is marked by WP:RSP as there being absolutely no consensus regarding its reliability in general, then I do not think it should be used to establish notability in a case like this and even your own source assessment table marks it as "partial". And if a source sounds machine-generated, why are you arguing for its usage? And both paragraphs you highlight are literally just plot summary as well as a few dashes of what fans think of the series. There is no actual critical commentary from what the article author themselves thinks beyond "this exists".

And to solidify this further, this article was written by an author who has worked with Sportskeeda, which is an unreliable content farm and this article honestly reminds me of something that would come from Sportskeeda based on how its written (which, as you've said, could very well have been done by AI). So again, I will repeat, this weirdly-worded social media post rehashing page does not contribute to the subjects notability. Take into account the actual contents of these sources. λ NegativeMP1 18:37, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No consensus does not mean consensus against. It just means that additional considerations apply. And in this case I don't think the additional considerations pose too much concern on how it can be used to establish notability.

That said, even though I believe this passes GNG, I'm not opposed to a closure with WP:TOOSOON. 0xDeadbeef→∞ (talk to me) 05:38, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or draftify: The source assessment table is a fancy way to make a topic look superficially notable, but one of the telltale signs of a GNG fail is the publication dates of all of the key sources being clustered together within the same single burst of news coverage: in this case October 2, 2024; October 4, 2024; and October 5, 2024.

Delete - This article dates way back 2006, the dark ages of WP when it was fun to create lists of geek trivia. An article of this title may have some encyclopedic value if it had references to serious movie/music histories, but here we just have a bunch of original research and fixing it would be a TNT waste of volunteer resources. I second the previous commenter's point as well, because some songs here are soundtrack entries described incorrectly as being "about" the associated film. From personal knowledge I can also say that several songs here, especially those by metal bands, are actually inspired by books that were themselves adapted into films. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:30, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep my vote is for keep, kindly understand that there are many Hollywood and Bollywood movies that are upcoming in 2025 some are more than a year away yet many already have established wiki pages on them such The Accountant 2, F1, Now You See Me 3, Jurassic World Rebirth, Jolly LLB 3, and more the list is endless. The information current available on the film 120 Bahadur is good enough to create a wiki page and as time progress and more info is available the wiki page will definitely grow with time. Moreover it is a film about a historically significant event. So the wiki page deserve a place with other films that are up for release in 2025. Bonadart (talk) 05:18, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your argument seems to fall under WP:OSE which is not something that can be used to support notability. Can you point out which references are specifically significant coverage that would count towards notability? The ones I see do not but will look at any you provide in case there is something I missed. --CNMall41 (talk) 22:04, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i am in no mood to argue, my contention is if The Accountant 2, Now You See Me 3, Jurassic World Rebirth, Jolly LLB 3 which are pure fiction can have well established wiki page, then 120 Bahadur which is based on real life and a immensely historical and significant event if you may think of, also deserves a place, and if you want to talk of capturing space in that case i think this page doesnt even grab a space more than tip of safety pin out of whole wiki sphere. Bonadart (talk) 04:54, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"I am in no mood to argue" - This is a discussion, not an argument. It does sound like maybe you should back away if you are not in the mindspace to discuss.

I see from page history that the page was moved to draft but it was moved back to mainspace but I am giving benefit of doubt that Bonadart will accept the consensus by the closer, if it ends with draftify and not move it back to mainspace till the film gets significant coverage likely after post-production.

Draftify. WP:TOOSOON. Sources are announcements and unveiling of the look and is in pre-production with cast and crew not confirmed yet. No significant coverage. RangersRus (talk) 13:22, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
TOOSOON - then what will say or opine about The Accountant 2, F1, Now You See Me 3, Jurassic World Rebirth, Jolly LLB 3, and more; all these films are 6 months to 1 year away yet they have established wiki pages. most of the crew of the film 120 bahadur are already on board as for cast the film is centered around Shaitan Singh Bhati who is played by Farhan Akhtar which is decided, as for others the cast hasnt been declared but may be revealed pretty soon, as for shooting it has already started as declared. So in all sense and purpose much of the info in wiki page is valid, and so deserves to be in live space. Bonadart (talk) 16:21, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

thanks for keeping the discussion alive

my 3 points

1. with all due respect ' if the content creator is going to immediately move it back to main space ' is bit harsh, please understand it takes time and effort to create a page, lot more to develop it. i have no issue if a article is deleted or kept in draft but it should always be done after thorough discussion, once consensus is reached why will any one have any problem, certainly not me.

2. regarding this page as I said earlier, agreed that this film is about a year away but so are movies like The Accountant 2, Now You See Me 3, Jurassic World Rebirth, Jolly LLB 3 but all these films have well established pages already, my point is these films are based on fiction where as this film '120 Bahadur' is based on reality and facts, so it deserves a space.

3. as for sources anyone include better sources if anyone can find.

thanks

Keep for now, without prejudice to a WP:DRAFTREASON #2 draftify. I really can't see any difference between this and a machine translated version of the jpwiki page, so there is a valid, policy based reason to draftify (WP:ATD-I). I'm not convinced draftification would be the best option right now though. I would like the option to draftify to remain open if there are no improvements in, say, 2 months, though, because it really does need a significant rewrite.

Obvious delete but this is a common issue with these college classes and I strongly believe that enrolled students should not be able to move assignments into mainspace without going through WP:AFC. Esolo5002 (talk) 03:51, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Esolo5002 Unfortunately, AfC might take too long for a college course. I suspect we don't notice most college courses that go through WikiEdu (such as this one) because they do a substantially better job...or, at least, whatever it is they do doesn't require an entire article to be deleted.

Of course, perhaps there should better controls of how college-related userspace drafts get moved into mainspace, nevertheless. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 03:56, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Going by their talk page, I feel like they might have "forgot" to complete the training modules (or just rushed through them without reading the instructions), since even the usual essay-like stuff we get from WikiEdu are much better (at least, good enough that I'd just tag and release instead of needing high explosives). I don't think actually getting reviewed and mainspaced should necessarily be a requirement for their assignment to be marked (if it is then they should remove it) but I'm not sure these ones would actually read the instructions to keep them in draft.

I understand from the talk page that the WikiEdu team does their own post-publication review process and moves things back to draft when necessary, I think a good first step would be to make that process a pre-publication process as much as possible, and ideally with some form of on-wiki note of the feedback received (this doesn't have to be the full feedback if there's anything they'd like to keep private, but some indication of what they went through would be nice). Carving out WikiEdu submissions from WP:DRAFTNO to allow individual reviewer discretion in enforcing draft/userification even when contested would probably cover the rest. Alpha3031 (t • c) 07:21, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alpha3031 Unfortunately, I can anticipate a negative impact on our relationships with universities if there were a few too many drafts being moved back into draftspace over a professors/students objections. But, as you said, this student probably didn't complete the training as intended, so my objection is mainly to that is that the benefit is smaller than the (already small) risk.

I'm not sure why there's such an expectation to move things to mainspace, to be frank. I just know when there's a "move to mainspace" step, we have problems with a small minority of students. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 07:34, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is a (possible, but not assured) WP:HOAX. Most sources are offline and, those that aren't, are broken links. At least two of the sources don't appear to exist at all (or at least in any database like Worldcat, etc.). I approved this via WP:AFC based on a background check that accidentally conflated this campaign with what, on further investigation, was an entirely different event.

The new editor who submitted this also submitted another article related to a battle which I just rejected at AFC, after being unable to confirm that some of the sources even existed, let alone supported the content. Note my comments there [48]. Chetsford (talk) 02:46, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and augment. Part of the issue with the author is that it can be difficult to meet WP:AUTHOR when her working language is Irish, and that doesn't Google so well. I'll also point to her article in the Irish Language Wikipedia, which has clearly met inclusion criteria there. Yes - different wiki, different rules, but still ... - Alison ^talk 04:48, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Google Books actually does have quite a few hits, BTW - Alison ^talk 05:30, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  Which of the google books hits would be WP:SIGCOV? LibStar (talk) 05:57, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I'm not seeing sufficient independent RS to show that the notability criteria have been met. JMWt (talk) 11:11, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
weak keep: Her works have been included in anthologies [52], and some analysis here [53] and here [54]. There's some coverage in Gaelic (?) sources if you limit it to .ie websites, but I can't tell what qualifies as a RS in that language. Oaktree b (talk) 15:13, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: This also seems to be a RS [55], hosted on a WordPress site, but it's an online magazine with an editorial board and such. Oaktree b (talk) 15:17, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I was the one who got the article up in the first place, but I tend to agree now that more references are needed, as discussed above. As for notability, a significant problem for writers in Irish is that few reviews are available in English, though I would regard her as a poet worthy of inclusion on her own merits. If the consensus was that the article should be deleted, I would accept that, and see if I could come up with something new and improved. Colin Ryan (talk) 02:42, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – while there is some coverage (see this, this, this), it often borders on tabloid-y and focuses on the star as much as, if not more than, the program. It should be mentioned at Tabatha Coffey#Television as it currently is, but a standalone article seems unwarranted. RunningTiger123 (talk) 01:08, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
