  • Delete: It doesn't seem to be a term in common use, and the original paper proposing it was written in 2003, with no rise in currency since then, which is a pretty strong argument against notability. There is one possible 2018 citation, which could suggest more recency and possible engagement by other scholars, but it doesn't say much about the term that could be integrated into the article, more a mention of the fact that the term was coined and an exploration of whether it is catching on or useful, but it's a poorly translated source I'm having trouble understanding. The best other independent citation I could find is a 2005 paper about internet assisted pedagogy in undergraduate course that cites it in a pretty tangential way. That all seems to say not notable to me. penultimate_supper 🚀 (talk) 23:23, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of Israeli massacres in Gaza 2023–2024 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Doesn't appear to be notable based on the usual WP:NLIST standard. I found this but AA is WP:GUNREL; also this video but reliability is questionable.

Definitions of massacre vary, and this particular list seems to use an unusually broad definition. If we were to pare it down to notable events which are commonly known as massacres, it would just become a sublist of List of massacres in the Palestinian territories, which doesn't seem useful since that list isn't particularly long. — xDanielx T/C\R 22:13, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose deletion. Though may support renaming. The massacres of entire families in Gaza is indeed standalone notable topic in accordance with WP:NLIST as per tons of reliable sources, Time, Associated Press, LA Times, Amnesty international, Airwars, etc. Perhaps the problem may be a naming problem, as the article calls the “wiping out” of entire family incidents “massacres”, which is what should be discussed, definitely not the existence or notability of the entire list (i.e the incidents of “wiping out” of entire families) in the first place. Thanks for pinging me.

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

As I had written at Talk:Giorgakis Olympios Museum of Vlach Folklore#Notability, I doubt this museum is all too relevant. Serres is outside the traditional homeland of the Aromanians (also known as Vlachs) centered in the Pindus, and also quite far from it. Having read much about the Aromanians, Serres has never appeared to be a center of Aromanian cultural activities in Greece like for example Veria in modern days. The sources talking about this museum seem to be all in Greek, of which I speak nothing, so native speakers of Greek could be more useful in determining the topic's notability. Meanwhile, here's what I've found:

In Google Books, I've found passing mentions of the parent cultural association of the museum [1] [2] [3]. That's it basically. The museum isn't mentioned either in this exhaustive book on the Aromanians by renowed author Asterios I. Koukoudis [4]. In Vlahoi.net, probably the greatest website about the Aromanians in Greece, there is some more information on the association, and the museum is only made passing mentions [5]. In this book hosted on the website, there's some very limited information on the museum: that it was established in 2008, the several sections it has and its objectives [6]. In Google Scholar I've tried a couple word combinations and haven't been able to find anything at all about the museum, and some passing mentions of the parent association. I have tried to find information on the museum on Aromanian websites and magazines, and I haven't been able to find anything, not even mentions of the association, though because I don't speak Aromanian either it is possible something may have slipped, but I doubt it'd be anything big. Finally it is, expectedly, with a regular Google search that I find the most information, but it's all from touristic or government and regional websites [7] [8]. Passing mentions are also to be found in local media, which in theory is reliable [9] [10] [11] [12], but again these articles don't contain much info. Also this museum does not have an entry at museumsofmacedonia.gr, not sure if it is an authoritative source but we have the article Sarakatsani Folklore Museum completely based on this website.

This article was created by a user with only 13 edits, all of them on this page [13]. The museum does not have an article in Greek Wikipedia, it only also does in Bulgarian Wikipedia, which has many low-quality articles on the Aromanians of questionable notability (just click on some biographies here [14] if you're wondering why do I say this). The Giorgakis Olympios Association of Vlachs of Serres, the parent association of this museum, is one of over a hundred of Aromanian associations in Greece which arent individually notable but which are grouped into the Panhellenic Federation of Cultural Associations of Vlachs, so any notable info on the museum could simply be covered in the article about the federation if truly necessary (proof for the association's membership in the federation: [15]). Serres#Places of interest and #Culture or Aromanians in Greece could also cover the few rescuable information that there could be. I see there's few coverage to be found on the museum in reliable sources and that it is hardly notable. The current sources on the article are unreliable, one is the page of the parent association and another is a government touristic website. Super Ψ Dro 15:10, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to ask for the judgement, if it's okay by them, of users Khirurg and Cplakidas. Surely they will have an easier time navigating through Greek sources and I'd appreciate having their opinion as a non-Greek speaker, though they can feel free to ignore this ping if they're not interested or don't have the time. Super Ψ Dro 15:10, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the heads-up, Super Dromaeosaurus. The museum is indeed outside the traditional area of Vlach settlement, but the association seems to be active and fairly large, and has some info as to how Vlachs spread to the region as the result of merchant activities in the 18th, and Ottoman persecutions in the early 19th century. The museum also appears to be a substantial building. In Google, the Greek name comes up a lot in small news items, but of the 'Sights in Serres' or 'Politician visits Museum' type. Frankly, the museum doesn't appear very notable per WP:GNG, as is the case for many smaller museums. Generally I am not a fan of deletions, but in this case I think just mentioning it in the article on Serres would be enough, as we barely have enough content for a stub either way.

This seems like a case of someone 'inheriting' notability from their family. A WP:BEFORE search mostly revealed ancestry.com-type links. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 20:39, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. The references in the article are either trivial passing mentions (like a single sentence on page 20 of this book - which is substantively about a different biographical subject), directory style entries (as here), unreliable sources (such as thepeerage.com, wikitree.com or findagrave.com), or webpages which do not mention the subject of this article at all (like this). Outside of the article, and per nom, my own WP:BEFORE efforts have only returned a handful of family history (ancestry.com) type entries, mentions in obituaries of family members (like this) and "wedding announcements" type stuff in society pages (as we find here). I can find nothing to suggest that the subject has been the topic of significant and in-depth coverage in reliable/independent sources. As would be expected for a subject of this type. Notability is not inherited. Wikipedia is not a family history site. Guliolopez (talk) 21:40, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Footballer who played a grand total of 401 minutes before retiring from the game.

  • Keep for better or worse, this IS the history of the Jews in Cambodia. The article has WP:RS and it is WP:V as well as WP:N. Smallness of size is not a "sin" when it comes to the Jewish People as they are a small sized nationality out of the world's billions of people. IZAK (talk) 22:29, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: I have posted the following on the nominator's talk page: Hi, and welcome to WP. I have spent over twenty years gathering material to build up a comprehensive history of the Jews in all of the world's countries, see Category:Jewish history by country. Some countries are large and some are small. Some Jewish communities are likewise small or large or old and new, but still they are part of the Jewish history of those countries and of Jewish history and the Jews in general. See my response to your nomination at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/History of the Jews in Cambodia: Your premise about the history of the Jews in any country, i.e. Jewish history, is wrong because Jews are ALWAYS a tiny minority compared to surrounding populations. For example, in the world today there are about seven billion people while there are only about 15 million Jews on planet Earth. Yet Jews are to be found everywhere and they always make WP:N contributions to their host nations regardless if they arrived there fifty years ago or five hundred years ago and regardless if they amount to 500 people or 500,000 people. Please note WP:DONOTDEMOLISH! Therefore, kindly withdraw your nomination because it interferes with the goal of building a comprehensive history of the Jews in all countries and nations on WP, no matter how large or small those Jewish communities are they are all part of the Jewish People who are a tiny, yet very much WP:N nationality and religious group in the world both historically and in the present!

  • Comment: Religion in Cambodia#Judaism is a potential merge target if consensus is against retaining this article as is. Left guide (talk) 08:05, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The only issues are (1) whether there is significant coverage of the topic, and (2) whether a subject is either too big or too small for its own article. Clearly, there are at least three reliable sources with some essential information about the topic, so that is settled. The periodical articles about the Princess’s Bat Mitzvah, philanthropy, and diplomacy are all good references about the subject. At AfD, regardless of how many (quantitative), we lean on how good (qualitative) the data is. Sometimes we look deeper to see if there is zero connection between the data to see whether there was artificial synthesis. This matter is often subjective, and in my mind there’s not synthetic organization; there is a logical correlation between the individual parts of the article and the whole. That can be a difficult task. Secondly, we have struggled with subjects that are too small or big for our encyclopedia. On one hand, we are not a good place for news and other small incidents. On the other hand, we can’t deal with run of the mill items or lists that might include everything. What I’m saying is this: we have never decided on a defined, objective quantum of the smallest possible number of items or data that are needed for an stub to exist. Jews have been a discrete and insular minority in every country from 70 CE until 1948. What is our quantum or velleity? Do we need a minimum of 137 Irish in Uruguay? If we had an objective number for articles of this sort, History of Jews in X, perhaps a minyan? Bearian (talk)
  • Delete. I would support this article if it had significant content, but it doesn't. Just look at it: a Chabad house (like almost every country), mention of two people not notable enough for their own articles (only one of them Cambodian), export of hair (nothing to do with Jews in Cambodia), and an American charity also not notable enough for their own article. Plus three sentences repeating stuff from Cambodia–Israel relations. There is nothing whatever about a community of Jews in Cambodia and only one(!!) Cambodian Jew is even mentioned. This is nowhere near enough for an article. It's a light-year from meeting GNG. Zerotalk 09:59, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(a) No one has ever said on WP that there has to be a "community" of Jews in a country for that country to have an article about the "History of the Jews in ____", because just having *Jews*, any number or any kind of Jews in a country qualifies for an article like the History of the Jews in Cambodia. (b) As long as there are reasonable WP:RS and it's WP:V to support an article it is enough to have a short article about a subject such as this. (c) This article is far better than a WP:STUB, and had it been a stub it would be a justified beginning to a good and interesting WP article. (d) This article is certainly WP:N because just as there is a short article about Jews in Cambodia on the Jewish Virtual Library there is no reason for WP now to cut off its nose to spite its face because it may lack a long history or a huge community. And by the way, the Jewish Virtual Library article clearly states that "the small Jewish community there consists of ex-patriots, NGO workers, travelers, hikers, and adventurers." (e) By your dismissive tone and words you are clearly displaying an attitude of WP:IDONTLIKEIT which as you know is NOT a reason to delete longstanding WP articles. (f) Jewish history also contains Modern Jewish historiography --> "which is the development of the Jewish historical narrative into the modern era" including into far-flung countries such as Cambodia that formerly had no known contact with Jews but in modern times has seen a significant influx of all kinds of Jews into it as this article clearly proves. IZAK (talk) 18:51, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      IZAK, you are quite right that I don't like it. I don't like any articles on invented topics with negligible content. I wouldn't even have brought this article to AfD if I'd seen it; I would have PRODed it for speedy deletion as an obvious notability failure. The fact is, only one of the sources (the Chabad one) supports this being a notable subject. Zerotalk 11:40, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      @Zero0000: In fact the article was originally prodded [20] but an alert and smart editor deprodded [21] it seeing that it could lead to controversy. Let me try to see if I can improve the article. IZAK (talk) 20:43, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Although the sources seem very good, there's little to suggest that this subject is enough for a standalone article. Per Zero, the content borders on incoherence and it's not of much use to potential users. DesiMoore (talk) 16:09, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • @DesiMoore: You make no sense! You do agree that this article has WP:RS and is therefore WP:V, and thus also qualifies for WP:N, then you allege that "it's not of much use to potential users" -- how do you know that? Are you privy to the amount of readers all over the world who rely on Wikipedia to learn about Jewish history in all the world's countries? Rather than poo-pooing this article you should be encouraging WP editors to be WP:BEBOLD and add new material even about subjects that may not interest you but are of value to lots of others out there on the world wide web! IZAK (talk) 23:34, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There are credible reliable and verifiable sources already in the article that describe the topic and demonstrates that the notability standard is met.

That's especially true when the World Taekwondo link in the article is to an Olympic medalist and world champion fighter from Korea named Jun Jang. Youth events and military championships have never been accepted as showing WP notability in the martial arts. His only appearance at a major event as an adult was at the 2022 World Championships where he lost his first match in the round of 64 (and received a world ranking of 153rd). He was ranked 148th in Olympic qualifying for the Paris Olympics. Papaursa (talk) 23:20, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I usually hesitate to nominate disorganized articles filled with information for deletion, hoping there’s something salvageable and not wanting to undermine the effort someone has spent hours or days creating. However, this article appears to function as a kind of WP:COATRACK and contains a lot of poorly written material, along with what I suspect is a significant amount of original research. It seems to have been written about a decade ago by a contributor involved in the "Wiki Academy Kosovo II City Marathon," who may not have adhered to best practices and instead focused on cramming in content.

The article should be divided into multiple standalone ones. I suggest extracting a list of notable subjects—individuals, events, compositions, etc...—both those with existing articles and those without, for further expansion and improvement. I would be happy to take on some of these, and others can be included in any relevant Wikiprojects. The Music of Kosovo and Classical music in Kosovo articles can be enhanced with any quality material from this article, but I don’t believe a topic specifically on "Musical compositions and composers in Pristina" is really warranted.

Most of the sources are to faculty pages and other profiles.

The result was no consensus‎. I see quite a few here calling for leaving this AfD open until after the election, when we'll have a much better idea about lasting notability for this candidate. The Keep !votes are more numerous, but the Delete and Redirect ones carry more P&G weight. So I'll close this as no-consensus, and allow for early renomination two weeks from now, when the subject's political status, and the resulting source coverage, is clearer. This makes more sense than relisting, and then expecting those who voiced their opinion before the election to amend their !vote, or the closer trying to discount !votes based on when they were entered.

This is actually a second AFD. The outcome of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tim Sheehy (American politician) was a strong consensus to redirect, with two "delete"s and no "keep"s. This new article was created as a redirect to the same target [22], on the grounds that in the Timothy Sheehy disambiguation page he's "not a politician yet". Another editor came along a week later and recreated the last article from that new redirect. A Google search for him, minus the word "Senate", turns up no significant coverate in reliable sources as a businessman or a soldier. The US is now three weeks away from a national election, and all of the major candidates are getting heavy press coverage. db-repost was declined, and the declining admin took a straw poll of editors from the last AFD at Talk:Tim Sheehy (businessman), and all have upheld the last consensus so far. So this article should be deleted, as it's really a renamed repost of Tim Sheehy (American politician). If Sheehy wins, then that article should obviously be un-redirected and expanded. Wikishovel (talk) 13:12, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not voting on this AfD but this does make far more sense, to throw my own two cents in here, since he does have potential to become notable very soon.

Keep.
There are likely thousands of undecided voters in Montana who don't know much about Sheehy, so they'll be coming on Wikipedia to look up information on him. Why would we disenfranchise them by deleting his page???
This is not like Delaware's senate race where it won't matter. This is a major senate race where almost every outlet says Sheehy is favored. It would seem that by deleting this page and denying valuable information to voters, it means you're seeking to help his opponent win. I had no idea Wikipedia was a partisan site seeking to help one candidate win by making the other seem less serious, but here we see i suppose? 2601:CF:0:9A0:B227:9473:F80D:C5D5 (talk) 02:55, 15 October 2024 (UTC) 2601:CF:0:9A0:B227:9473:F80D:C5D5 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

KEEP
Tim Sheehy is a major party candidate in a Senate race with major national attention. This race has received millions in spending on advertising, and voters in Montana deserve easy access to basic information on the candidates running in their race. It should also be noted that in an extremely contentious and likely close election, Tim Sheehy is the most likely of any Senate candidate to flip a seat. There are pages for far less notable figures who stood no chance of winning. There seems to be no reason to delete his page except for partisanship.Is — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scooter3 (talkcontribs)

    There are a number of keep !votes above and below which say he should have his page kept because he's a candidate. He wasn't notable before, the page was only restored because he's a candidate, and we deal with enduring notability. There are plenty of candidates from all over the world who failed to win the election and ten years later would not deserve a page. I think that's the case here.

  • Leaning keep. I am inclined to think that his notability as a businessman and author is sufficient, even if coverage of these aspects of his life comes primarily in the context of his political campaign. BD2412 T 01:06, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment WP:POLOUTCOMES suggests that a redirect to the race is an appropriate outcome (and those pages can contain verifiable information about the candidates). In general, we know that NPOL is largely a pass/fail criteria, but even if a subject fails NPOL, they can still pass GNG. The next question is whether the subject is known only for one event (which can encompass a political campaign), and to an extent, we often make a guess about the enduring notability of the subject.
Candidates are hard to make a determination on whether a stand-alone article is appropriate especially when a candidate may only be known for their political campaign (and not public figures prior or after the campaign). If a candidate does have a stand-alone page, is deemed now and forever notable, any (past or future) verifiable information (flattering or unflattering) can be added to the page (with few recourses for a living person, and fewer recourses for a deceased individual).
I say all that but conclude that in the last 20 days before an election, passions about political candidates run high, and it can be hard to be objective in AFD, and harder yet to delete a US candidate running as a major party nominee for US Senate. And, it is especially hard if a candidate who is leading in the polls does not have a stand-alone page but their opponent does. If the subject is not elected November 5, my suggestion would be to revisit this discussion to truly determine if the subject is a WP:BLP1E. --Enos733 (talk) 05:27, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I think it's unfair to be quick to delete an article on a candidate who is strongly favored to become a senator.

Even though media coverage of him is related to his campaign, there is a large enough amount of substantial media coverage about Sheehy as a person that I would argue he meets the GNG. I also reject the notion that his article should be deleted if he doesn't win the election; if an article is genuinely notable at one point in time, it should always be notable absent a major change in how we define notability.

Subject is not notable. None of the references appear to actually reference the topic, and searching for more doesn't seem to bring up anything under this name. The first is a massive self-published list of compounds of various types. It may appear somewhere within this - although searching for the relevant terms and reading through the sections of 4D compounds did not find it for me - however regardless it is clearly not a WP:RS. The second appears to be a scholarly article, but it doesn't appear mention the topic, it is referenced for the vertex coordinates of the constituent components. The final two sources are pages on the constituent components separately. The external links appear to be the only places where this component is mentioned outside of this Wikipedia article, but they are self-published and extremely brief. Even reading the article it is unclear what is supposed notable about this compound. AquitaneHungerForce (talk) 13:03, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is inaccurate. Michael Stein is incoming Dean of the Boston University School of Public Health (https://www.bu.edu/sph/news/articles/2024/michael-stein-appointed-interim-dean-of-school-of-public-health/)
Regarding notability: he has appeared on Peabody award-winning radio (https://freshairarchive.org/guests/michael-stein), has had his books reviewed in the New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/09/books/09masl.html), and is a prolific researcher with >450 peer-reviewed publications.

In case of becoming an interim dean i think that it doesn’t give directly notability because it will be only a temporary post for short period of time till the election of new permanent dean. Secondly interviews as generally considered non reliable because everything the interviewee says is primary and non independent per, wikipedia:Interviews #Notability . But yes he has some books which are reviewed by Some Independent and Reliable Sites i.e, NYC, Washington dc. Which is a good measure for his notability.

WP:BLP of a suburban municipal councillor, not properly referenced as passing WP:NPOL #2. As always, city councillors are not all "inherently" notable just because they exist, and must show credible reasons why they should be seen as special cases of significantly greater notability than the norm for city councillors (nationalized prominence, unusual depth and volume of coverage well beyond the norm, etc.) — but apart from one primary source that isn't support for notability at all, this is otherwise referenced entirely to run of the mill coverage in the city's weekly hyperlocal community newspaper, of the type that every city councillor in every city can always show, and does not demonstrate a credible reason why he would be more special than any of his colleagues who don't have articles. The only attempt at "impact of his work on the council" shown here is that he served on community committees, which is not at all unusual for a city councillor, and there's absolutely no documentation of any specific accomplishments on those committees to establish the long-term significance of his participation.

I can prove Moravec exists/existed because he has/had four appearances for Slovakia national football team and currently works as a manager, neither of which is considered free pass. Regarding secondary sources, the best I found is Gulf Times. Corresponding Wikipedia articles in other languages don't provide significant coverage of him.

Please note that this birth name is common in the Czechoslovak scene, so it's possible to find namesakes such as a kid footballer, which I can't prove whether or not he is related to the former footballer. This article has existed for 16 years without any decent source, and a redirect to List of Slovakia international footballers might be an alternative to deletion.

Managing an amateur team looks like a weak claim to notability. As Moravec's profile is not listed in the current squad anymore, I doubt he left the club, but probably have to ask the club for confirmation. ⋆。˚꒰ঌ Clara A. Djalim ໒꒱˚。⋆ 14:53, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that he played his career in a top-tier league etc. is based on now-defunct guideline NFOOTBALL.

  • Redirect. Where is the required citation to a GNG source? Footballer accomplishment/league play was explicitly deprecated as a notability rationale, there is no carve-out for people who meet some arbitrary standard like "interesting career". I searched sport.sk archives and found only a handful of passing mentions (like this and this) and quotes from him as coach, e.g. this. Nothing in Spectator, SK Today, Sky Sports; nothing in the Wiki Library.

    I based my redirect recommendation on what Clariniie had said above in response to Geschichte. GNG does say Availability of secondary sources covering the subject is a good test for notability, so if a search of the online archives of four of the top Slovak sports news orgs didn't yield anything, that ought to count for something. The article can be recreated if someone finds SIGCOV in offline newspapers, but right now it directly violates SPORTCRIT. JoelleJay (talk) 17:36, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@JoelleJay: The problem with doing that redirect, it then hides all his other activity, it's better to delete the name, that way if people search for it, they will also find it on other pages, like FK Dukla Banská Bystrica, where he is listed as notable. But why is he notable there you must add, because he also has international caps, there maybe another reason. So the redirect logic is not a sound one. Besides, I'd still believe he is notable for the reason, getting to be capped by the national team is a good feet. I feel the nomination has not considered this at all, and are putting his name in the same boat as small islander nations. Moravec was selected from a much bigger pool of footballers to choose from. This is where the nomination fails, because this hasn't taken that into account. Govvy (talk) 17:44, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Why should we take that into account when those kinds of criteria were explicitly deprecated from NSPORT? And the article is still required to cite a source of SIGCOV even if the subject does meet a sport-specific criterion. JoelleJay (talk) 18:10, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was explaining why a redirect wouldn't work and a few issues, so why on Earth would you say deprecated from NSPORT. People talk about silly wikipedia policies all the time and those that are doing that rarely look for sources from my prospective. Govvy (talk) 22:12, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notability tag was challenged on the basis that there was sigcov - which is not really how notability for events works, every item of breaking news gets sigcov. There is no lasting and analytical coverage in this article to fulfill NEVENT. Every source in this article is from the week it happened. For an event to pass notability, it must receive analytical and continued coverage, of which this has neither, it's just "this thing happened", which is not encyclopedic. This has some passing mentions but no sigcov. WP:PRIMARYNEWS. PARAKANYAA (talk) 09:29, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just in a brief search, I was able to find continued coverage in the following places: 1 2 34 5. There may be more, but I think this should be sufficient. Arguably this coverage is analytical since it focuses on the killing as part of the broader plight of Christians in Gaza. I think it is also too early to say definitively that coverage of this event has subsided. We aren't even past the 1 year anniversary of the event, and the war is still ongoing. It's not hard to imagine Pope Francis's use of the word terrorism being acknowledged in the context of his legacy, or this incident being used in some future international criminal proceeding. I'm not sure if the possibility of future notability is admissible as evidence right now, but I feel we should consider that the possibility of it receiving renewed coverage at some later date has not yet passed. Unbandito (talk) 18:53, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    The primary sources page defines reporting on events and breaking news reports to be primary sources. The closest thing to a secondary source is the Atlantic report, which is decent, but at only 1 month after it happened is not sustained coverage. The reports here are not secondary. This does not pass any aspect of WP:NEVENT. The later coverage is all passing mentions and not sigcov. PARAKANYAA (talk) 02:37, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That's not a policy page, it's an essay. But you are wrong anyway. When a news organization repeats news collected by another news organization, that's secondary coverage. Most are like that. But that's irrelevant anyway; reports of an event in a reliable news source have counted towards notability since the beginning of Wikipedia and you are more than 20 years too late in arguing against it. Zerotalk 02:45, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    "When a news organization repeats news collected by another news organization, that's secondary coverage." ??????? No. Yes it's an essay, but it's an explanatory one and that primary sources do not contribute to notability is the guideline. We do not have an article on every single tragedy that has ever made the news without sustained coverage, nor should we.
    Read WP:NEVENT. This fails all aspects - was briefly covered in any significant detail, it did not have a lasting impact, it was not retrospectively or historically analyzed, significant coverage was for less than a month, the coverage was not in depth. Just because people constantly flout NEVENT and NOTNEWS does not mean it is not the rules. Wikipedia is not a website for every single news item that ever had a weeks worth of coverage, and there is not any way to write this article that does not violate WP:NOTNEWS.

This is one of several events in close sequence which shocked certainly the Catholic Church and its natural protests, and gestures like inviting both Israeli and Palestinians to the Vatican on the same day led to a barrage of complaints from rabbinical circles. I think the rabbi of Milan even expressed shock that the Vatican was denying Israeli the exclusive solidarity he thought they were entitled to. There is an excellent book out recently by two Jesuits, Giovanni Sale, David Neuhaus's Israele e Palestina: Un conflitto senza fine?, Il Pellegrino Edizioni 2024 which goes to great lengths, in response to that sequence of events, to trace the whole history of the conflict from its origins in quite impressive detail, and they include this particular incident in their narrative as important. The wider world may not follow this up but it will reverberate among Christians/Catholics, who have managed to maintain an historic presence in Gaza for close to 2,000 years. readers might care to look at the Manuel Musallam page. He served there when Hamas was in control.Nishidani (talk) 16:41, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Nishidani How much do they discuss this event in the book? If it's in depth or significant it may help. PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:44, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per GNG guidelines, specifically notability not being temporary. ToeSchmoker (talk) 16:43, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Notability is not temporary once notability has been established. The notability for this event was never established per our standards at WP:NEVENT. It was not notable and then become non notable, but was never notable. PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:43, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not particularly interested in going back and forth debating the wiki guidelines and the multitude of essays. We both interpret these things differently and that is okay. ToeSchmoker (talk) 08:15, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • comment: i've done a little bit of copyediting, and i partially agree with both arguments here. there is no doubt that this particular war crime is important in the recent development of Holy See–Israel relations, and in informing broader Catholic perception of Israel. i think the book cited by Nishidani could be promising (i don't read Italian) if it does indeed provide analysis of how this specific killing affected those relations. however, that aside, i'm also inclined to agree with PARAKANYAA & the alien that the analytical and historical coverage is generally lacking. i also don't find the "it's famous and people talked about it" argument convincing in the slightest. i think, if no more can be squeezed out of that book, then a merge to the Holy See-Israel relations article could maybe be good (although that article could really use some cleanup). ... sawyer * he/they * talk 17:13, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I would be fine with merging it there. If it later happens to receive retrospective coverage (which seems a non-zero possibility) it can be split out. PARAKANYAA (talk) 22:44, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    agreed - i could definitely see this being covered in future retrospectives of the Gaza crisis. ... sawyer * he/they * talk 12:28, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: Notable event which received international coverage, no reason for its deletion. Red Phoenician (talk) 02:57, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge: There are already hundreds of articles on the Hamas-Israel conflict, in dozens of categories and subcategories. It is recentism on steroids. They should be condensed and merged wherever possible. This incident deserves a paragraph in the page on Holy See–Israel relations, no more. Utilisateur19911 (talk) 07:34, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge? Of course, these are Palestinian victims of terrorism and so, unlike the numerous pages on Israeli victims of the same -Murders of Neta Sorek and Kristine Luken,Deaths and ransoming of Oron Shaul and Hadar Goldin, Murder of Helena Rapp,Killing of Binyamin Meisner, Killing of Avi Sasportas and Ilan Saadon, Abduction and killing of Yaron Chen, Abduction and killing of Nachshon Wachsman,Abduction and killing of Nissim Toledano, Murder of Asher and Yonatan Palmer,Death of Yehuda Shoham,Murder of Ofir Rahum,Murder of Shalhevet Pass, Murder of Koby Mandell and Yosef Ishran, Murder of the Hatuel family, etc.etc.etc.,- they are not notable and must be disappeared in a drastically slimmed down merge. Nishidani (talk) 12:26, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you re-read my post carefully, you may notice that it applies to all articles related to the conflict. Utilisateur19911 (talk) 12:45, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I read your post closely, as I read everything. It dismisses this article as 'recentism on steroids', which would equally apply to the articles of Israeli victims, which are almost never subject to AfD, unlike the occasional Palestinian article of this type.

There does not appear to me to be any independent, reliable, in-depth coverage for this company, as required by WP:NCORP. I have conducted a search I believe to be extensive, though perhaps not comprehensive, and the results are as follows:

Source assessment
Created with templates {{ORGCRIT assess table}} and {{ORGCRIT assess}}
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor.
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Secondary? Overall value toward ORGCRIT
All the citations already in the article seem to be pressers except the Forbes contributor and WP:TECHCRUNCH so skipping to:
Reynolds, Matt (2021-12-20). "This Startup Is Making—and Programming—Human Cells". Wired. ISSN 1059-1028. Retrieved 2024-10-20.
Yes – Maybe the first sentence of the penultimate paragraph, and the first two of the last, are both directly about the subject and not quotes. No Bit of a stretch to call those three secondary.
"Cambridge Company Bit Bio Presses Enter To The Software Of Life". The Healthcare Technology Report. 2020-06-23. Retrieved 2024-10-20.
No Seems like WP:TRADES likely paraphrasing a presser to me No idea how reliable

Google didn't pick up these ones for me for some reason, but:

No Yes No Slightly better than the one from i but still routine coverage of the partnership announcement IMO
No Again, this is 90% quotes Yes No No

(No relevant results were found for Elpis BioMed)

There are, of course, hundreds of other press releases, but I've omitted those for brevity. Additionally, even if appropriate sources meeting NCORP are found for this subject, half of the paragraphs in § Origins are biomedical in nature, which makes the sourcing to press releases instead of actually reliable sources highly inappropriate, and I would advocate that the article be confined to draftspace on those grounds alone (or otherwise removed from indexing). The creator of the article is also a single purpose account, though they have denied a COI. It is possible that they are simply an overly enthusiastic new editor. Also noting I have no objection to a redirect, with or without retaining article history. Alpha3031 (tc) 05:12, 20 October 2024 (UTC) Alpha3031 (tc) 09:00, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion on UPE and related Mark Kotter article
Alpha3031, just a brief note to say that there is abundant off-wiki evidence to indicate that the article creator here is a UPE linked to the company. That being the case, I wonder if you had considered the possibility of also referring the article on Bit.bio founder Mark Kotter to AfD as it is equally promotional and the work of the same UPE user? (I would do so myself but for unfamiliarity with the process of creating an AfD).
Further info on the background can be found at the relevant thread at COIN, here [41]. Kind regards, Axad12 (talk) 05:29, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see. I did skim that thread but I missed the part about off-wiki evidence. If that's the case then the paid-en-wp VRT queue may be able to do things that AfD does not normally do, like enforce AfC (or block the editor in question). However, I will make it a priority to conduct a BEFORE for that article as well. Alpha3031 (tc) 05:38, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your note. My feeling is that the very easily accessible evidence is so compelling that referral to paid-en-wp should not really be necessary. The user is clearly a promo-only SPA with a disruptive editing pattern who has ignored several warnings. The transparent nature of the UPE should therefore be sufficient for the user to be site blocked.
Thank you for looking at the Mark Kotter article, much appreciated. If the two articles end up being deleted then hopefully that will put an end to the promo/SPA/COI activity around these subjects. Axad12 (talk) 05:51, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On an initial review, I would expect deletion to be an unlikely outcome as Kotter would be measured against WP:NPROF (though I could be wrong, I don't do BIO AfDs as often). On the other hand, WP:BLP applies to positive content as well as negative, so I expect the best path forward would be to exclude any content that seems overly promotional, with the use of either the usual Dispute resolution or blocks and page protection as required, depending on the specific cause of the issue. Alpha3031 (tc) 05:15, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alpha3031 and Axad12: Yep an h-index of 48 is an easy pass of WP:PROF #1. SmartSE (talk) 08:17, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Smartse, noted. Thank you for the work you have done on the Kotter article to bring it closer in line with Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Axad12 (talk) 08:24, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Very strong delete, as per nom. I'd also request that sanctions be implemented against the creator, who has been asked to declare their transparent UPE/COI status but has refused to do so, and has repeatedly removed COI etc templates from the articles they have created. Axad12 (talk) 05:37, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Postscript: Given the negative contents of the source assessment table I am against a redirect. The additional source material not covered by the table is apparently sourced to press releases. Once all the various kinds of poor sourcing are stripped out, what is there left to redirect? Axad12 (talk) 09:10, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    A redirect means there will be nothing at the page and anyone trying to go to Bit.bio will be taken to Mark Kotter instead Axad12. Not sure what you mean by what is left, unless I'm misunderstanding something? Alpha3031 (tc) 09:15, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Apologies, I was momentarily (and rather foolishly) confusing 'redirect' with 'merge'. My mistake. Axad12 (talk) 09:19, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On second thoughts, since the biography is notable, we should probably redirect there. SmartSE (talk) 08:17, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

IMO, this should be redirected, draftified, deleted, or failing all of those things, sourced. Unfortunately, the first two options will likely be reverted by the article creator. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 03:16, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per the points of the others. Unsourced and has little to no content, with no indication of notability shown. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 17:07, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per all. Mostly unsourced, but seems like a clear and valid search term. Shooterwalker (talk) 00:01, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect A lot of the article is just theoretical. Many of the facts (like how Mike worked at the pizzeria, or how he is the brother of the crying child) are speculative and unconfirmed by the actual franchise. This is what I believe to be the biggest problem with the article. It works better as a search term, in my opinion, as I believe the article about the franchise contains information about the characters. Probably even more than this article…TheSchollyist (talk) 17:17, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. Despite the competition wins, these haven't actually led to any significant work on the concert or opera stage. I could find no reviews of her performances or coverage in independent publications; although I did find media that had connections to the subject and could not be used towards notability because they lacked independence. Her profile in opera base (see https://www.operabase.com/isabella-moore-a2140410/en) which tracks all professional opera productions globally only has one credit, and it isn't even a professional production but a university production. She is involved with the Pegasus Opera Company, but that is only a semi-professional company that operates more like a community theatre organization that a standard opera house. It's productions don't even get tracked by opera base. I think this is possibly a case of WP:TOOSOON, but since she has been at it for over a decade without a significant professional resume she may never achieve notability. 4meter4 (talk) 02:48, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. Lately, opera singing and academia have become more alike in the sense of perpetual fellowships that delay tenure or its equivalent. I’m not sure if we should be involved in forcing a change to that. Bearian (talk) 01:23, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
