I can't find significant coverage in reliable sources for this muay thai fighter, but I'm not confident I know where to look, either. Here's two links that might help someone else: [3]; [4]. asilvering (talk) 23:42, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This was interesting search and showed how things have changed. Time was it was very difficult (well nigh impossible) to find sources on Muay Thai fighters. I found a number of articles on Pearse, but most of them are TikTok, youtube, and instagram. Fight results and upcoming fight announcements are easy to find, but it's still difficult to find significant coverage from sources I know are both reliable and independent. He comes close to meeting WP:NKICK. The WMC ranks him as the #11 contender in his weight class (hence #12 overall) and he recently lost to the Rajadamnern champion in a non-title bout. Neither the sources I found nor the ones mentioned in the article convince me that WP:GNG is met. Historically, organizational ratings are sometimes suspect--it's hard to believe he's so highly ranked in the world when he's only ranked #8 at Rajadamnern. I'd say it appears to be WP:TOOSOON, but I'm not voting right now in the hope that better sources can be provided. Papaursa (talk) 01:53, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Unreferenced (sources are mentioned but not cited anywhere) and is essentially an unnecessary spin-off of List of towns and cities in Scotland by population, using same methodology as the Settlements list (the figures differ slightly due to taking the figures from different years). De-prodded by editor who possibly didn't realise that the above article contains sections for both Localities and multi-locality Settlements, i.e urban areas.

source articles are very clearly biased and take a strongly ethnonationalist point of view, denigrating pontic greeks and armenians while glorifying the turks. I am additionally not certain of the notability of this event. Insanityclown1 (talk) 18:32, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Unsure this seems to be a real event and not a Turkish invention. It's mentioned in greek and other non-turkish sources too: [5][6] But these are just passing mentions and if there aren't enough in depth quality sources to write a good article, then it should be a delete/redirect. However, I didn't search for sources in Greek so I cannot vote delete. (t · c) buidhe04:34, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Started as a WP:POVFORK[9] and since then it has changed quite a bit but it never really improved. This article is not about her public image, which is overwhelmingly positive, (and not a notable topic which does not pass WP:GNG), it is about certain criticisms of her. For some reason the article got moved [10]. Criticism should be in the main article and this POVFORK should be removed. Polygnotus (talk) 19:07, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I'm COI on this because 1.) a family friend ran some of Mother Teresa's US PR stuff and 2.) Mother Teresa holds special, positive importance in a private element of my life. However, I'm of the opinion that this article, while possibly a bit OR-heavy, strikes me as generally neutral and notable. I can elaborate, but I feel my COI precludes me from seriously inserting myself any further here. ~ Pbritti (talk) 01:49, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Pbritti: COI users are allowed to have an opinion (even those who disagree with me ). See WP:COIEDIT and WP:COIADVICE. Do you know any reliable sources that are about her public image and not her as a person? Do you think it is a good idea that all criticism was removed from the article about her and moved to this, far more obscure, article? And that, possibly as a result of the move from Criticism of... to Public image of..., the criticism got hidden even further down the page? Polygnotus (talk) 02:00, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your encouragement to discussion! Perusing JSTOR, I'm finding some pieces like this. Generally, they come from the late 1990s and are heaving on the sociology (not necessarily bad, especially in a subjective subject). I have objections over centering criticisms like Hitchens's on her biographical article—one of a few significant marks against his legacy—but generally agree that we need to exercise caution in any diminishment of sustained and impactful criticism. ~ Pbritti (talk) 02:15, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is interesting to see how some people are overly cautious with anything approaching COI while others... are not. ;-) Of course, the criticism comes not just from Hitchens. People like Aroup Chatterjee and Tariq Ali and Mihir Bose and even people who worked for her like Hemley Gonzalez and Susan Shields et cetera have famously criticized her work. There are a lot of very important people who said very positive things about her; let's be fair and balance that out with some of the criticism. MLK jr got a criticism section. You can probably write a criticism section for Ghandi. I am quoting myself, and when I wrote that the Mother Teresa article still had a criticism section. No matter what happens here, the criticism will return anyway. It never left, despite attempts to hide it. Polygnotus (talk) 02:25, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Critics say grossly inadequate medical care was given to the sick and dying. Syringes were reused without sterilisation, pain relief was non-existent or negligible, and conditions were unhygienic. Meanwhile, Mother Teresa spent much of her time travelling around the world in a private plane to meet political leaders. -- The Guardian. Polygnotus (talk) 03:18, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at WP:SIZESPLIT, over 9000 words means "Probably should be divided or trimmed". The main article currently got only 5000 words. I flipped it around. If it would be fair then that shouldn't matter, right? But it does cause it isn't.
Finally, how competent are the sisters at managing pain? On a short visit, I could not judge the power of the spiritual approach, but I was disturbed to learn the formulary includes no strong analgesics. Along with the neglect of diagnosis, the lack of good analgesia marks Mother Teresa's approach as clearly separate from the hospice movement. I know which I prefer.'

Comment: The article was previously nominated for deletion on August 2023. The article's current title came as a result of that discussion. I was the one who removed the criticism section but I retained the criticism against her since it would be a violation of NPOV to remove it. You do not need such a section to include criticism about a person. The NPOV policy discourages such sections anyway. StephenMacky1 (talk) 12:23, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. I think the topic itself is notable, having found multiple academic sources attesting the notability of the subject's public image, such as in popular discourse or media culture. A selection of examples follow:
Daniel T. Kline, "Digital Hagiography: Princess Diana, Mother Teresa, and Medieval Women in Cyberspace", College Literature 28, no. 2 (Spring 2001): 92–117, https://www.jstor.org/stable/25112585
Gëzim Alpion, "Why Are Modern Spiritual Icons Absent in Celebrity Studies? The Role of Intermediaries in Enhancing Mother Teresa's Advocacy in India and Australia Prior to the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize", Celebrity Studies 11, no. 2 (2020): 221–236, https://doi.org/10.1080/19392397.2019.1567366
The difficulty, of course, is that the current version of the article is not based on this literature. Instead it's a mashup of some stuff about legacy like the sainthood plus specific criticisms. I suppose there might be a case the article warrants WP:TNT, since its content is so disconnected from the literature relevant to the article's purported topic per its title (Saint or Celebrity is cited once; the rest not at all) that it'd require substantial cleanup. I'm not presently making that case, but I'd be open to hearing it from another. Hydrangeans (she/her | talk | edits) 07:48, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hydrangeans: Thank you, we could probably use those sources to write a section on the main article, and if there is really a lot of content that could get split. But the current article in its current form is not a good starting point to write such an article imo, so it seems like WP:TNT is the best option. Can we put those sources in a {{refideas}} template on the talkpage of the main article? Polygnotus (talk) 14:14, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notable for only being the main bachelor of The Bachelor (American TV series) season 2, the target that the nominated page should be redirected to. (The Bachelor (American TV series) is an alternative, but I prefer just season-specific.) His activities outside the series don't measure up to make WP:BIO1E (if not WP:BLP1E) inapplicable.

Criterion 3 of COMPOSER states that those who have written a composition that has won (or in some cases been given a second or other place) in a major music competition not established expressly for newcomers. may be notable, but none of the competitions he has won appear to be "major" (at the very least, they don't have Wikipedia articles) Mach6123:25, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I added a few more reliable independent sources (e.g. Association of Iranian Contemporary Music Composers (ACIMC)).
In my opinion, Rafie meets criteria for Wikipedia:NMUSICOTHER, saying "Composers and performers outside mass media traditions may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria: Has composed a number of notable melodies, tunes, or standards used in a notable music genre."
@Klaviermusikfan1972 None of the sources you added move the needle with regard to being independent and in-depth. (for example this is a profile on the website of an organization Rafie is a member of).
Rafie does not meet that criterion of NMUSICOTHER, because a "notable" composition is one that qualifies for an article, by having sources cover it. None of Rafie's originals have gotten that. Mach6117:46, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lacks notability. The only significantly notable thing associated with JUNIPER is "goblin mode", which already has its own Wikipedia page (WP:BLP1E). Most information about JUNIPER could be added to that page. JUNIPER herself is not very notable. Many of the sources used as references mention her only in passing (usually because she responded to a more prominent person's post online) or are primarily about goblin mode. Macxcxz (talk) 21:30, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: As I have become more experienced here, I am more open to a deletion. I knew this would come eventually, because it was never properly addressed in the other two AfD's. The article hinges on goblin mode for notability a bit, but it should be kept in mind that she created/popularized other memes, and had added notability after her suspension. That's not just one event. Still, this article could easily be deleted and separate memes and events go to their own parent articles, simply referencing her. Junlper herself does only have a few articles about her, so I'm open to any outcome.
Comment: Just to note, I do not think JUNIPER's other publicised things (her suspension and the Snickers dick vein meme/hoax) represent anything notable, certainly not to the extent of goblin mode. The Snickers dick vein hoax had a Wikipedia page which was subsequently merged with several other articles before eventually redirecting back to JUNIPER's, which makes its lack of notability for Wikipedia standards apparent. Its just an internet meme, not every internet meme is notable just for being popular or having an internet-culture website write an article on it. If that were true, Chris-Chan would have had a Wikipedia page long ago. Same goes for her suspension, not very notable and lacked sustained coverage, and most coverage it got was not focused on her specifically. Macxcxz (talk) 23:20, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Getting this out of the way: the article is huge, but FANDOM pages are also huge, that doesn't have anything to do with a character's notability. In this case, Ryo does not appear notable, and the article only reinforces how Dan Hibiki, the character who is a parody of him, is probably notable while Ryo is not. What is not primary-sourced development information or plot summary is sourced entirely to trivial mentions or listicles that mention him alongside all other characters, only indicating KOF characters are notable as a group.

I made sure it in reception to make sure it had a big impact not only in game journalists discussing him on his own in different countries. Also real people.

Comment: There are many articles on SNK characters (List of The King of Fighters characters), where I would struggle with notability.

'Comment After talking with other users, I tried cleaning up the article by removing reviews and pointless revisions. Most of thecurrent articles are primarily focused on the characters and games narrative with the exception of his Mr. Karate alterego which is more rare so I used few previews for that. Furthermore, I have just found that the internet meme was far more popular worldwide and expanded on it. I also made sure to keep the only important Fatal Fury parts as Ryo's inclusion in FFSpecial is famous for inspiring the KOF franchise as well as guest characters. Same with his role in kof as I only placed articles focused on him and or team. I also changed the commentary of Dan Hibiki and how the company reacted to Dan's character by creating another parody character.Tintor2 (talk) 17:32, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your feedback. While I understand the concerns regarding WP:SIGCOV and WP:GNG, I believe there is potential to expand the article with more independent, reliable sources to meet these notability guidelines. The current sources may indeed include affiliated or directory-based content, but this does not negate the possibility of finding significant coverage through further research. I am committed to addressing this by seeking out local news archives, academic references, or governmental publications that cover the institution's contributions to education or its impact in the community. If you're open to it, I would appreciate additional time to improve the article, ensuring it aligns with Wikipedia's notability standards before any final decision is made. 🌼𝓡𝓬 𝓡𝓪𝓶𝔃🍁 (talk) 03:04, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a cookbook author and filmmaker, not reliably sourced as having a strong claim to passing notability criteria for either occupation. As always, people are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and have to show evidence of WP:GNG-worthy coverage about them in media independent of themselves -- but the only notability claim on offer here is that her work exists, and the article is referenced to one (deadlinked but recoverable) short blurb that isn't enough to get her over GNG all by itself if it's all she's got for GNG-worthy coverage, and one primary source that isn't support for notability at all. The article, further, has been tagged for needing more sources since 2011 without ever having better sources added, and a WP:BEFORE search came up dry as all I found in ProQuest was the blurb and a small handful of glancing namechecks of her existence in coverage of events. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to have more and better referencing than this. Bearcat (talk) 18:01, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well-established but ultimately non-notable school.

KEEP: Wayshak is well-known in the comic book/graphic novel world. I have added reviews from a number of sources within that world, which I would suggest indicates some notability. Guinness323 (talk) 06:24, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I added the sources to the assessment table above. They don't show WP:SIGCOV, except for sources that fail the test of independence or reliability. The closest they get is a claim of notability under WP:NARTIST, but that's only if you interpret a single comic book issue with two reviews as "a significant or well-known work or collective body of work." While the guideline does not describe comic books, it does generally exclude notability for individual works that are serial installments of a longer series (e.g. a TV show episode) and applying that principle to comic books would exclude this principle here.

Delete - based on the source analysis above and a BEFORE search. It is WP:TOOSOON for this artist, perhaps in a few more years there will be enough significant coverage in reliable sources that are fully independent of the subject to support an encyclopedia article. Being "well known" or having career success or "fame" is not the same as encyclopedic notability; this is not a reflection on the artist or their work, but simply a reality of WP's guidelines that have been crafted through consensus over a period of years. The article fails WP:NARTIST and WP:GNG at this time. Netherzone (talk) 02:31, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - why does it matter that "filming is complete" - the film is not being released until 2025. WP:NFF is clear: Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines. There is nothing notable about the production itself, and the film has not yet been released, so... BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ!21:18, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, it does matter whether filming has started (or, for that matter, is complete) or not, for obvious reasons and for policy-based reasons. As for the rest, I beg to differ. We have reliable media outlets offering significant coverage about cast, plot, production, etc, so I will stand by my Keep. NFF is clear, yes, maybe, and production seems notable enough per the guidelines. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank)22:19, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This group received some coverage when it first launched in 2018, but that's mainly a function of having a good publicist. Since 2018, they've received very little in-depth coverage. There's some in-depth coverage of its leadership, but most articles I could find only mention BEA in passing. An editor removed my PROD on this article because they found a "recent NYT article that refers to organization's recent activity," which they said "addresses the issue" I had. There's only one problem: the NYT article in question is about Wes Moore, and there is exactly 1 sentence about BEA. BottleOfChocolateMilk (talk) 16:02, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hoeflin, Ronald (July 1987). "About the Editor"(PDF). Noesis, the Journal of the Noetic Society. 16: 11. I have been a member of all six high-IQ societies listed in the Encyclopedia of Associations: Mensa, Intertel, the International Society for Philosophical Enquiry, the Triple Nine Society, the Prometheus Society, and the Mega Society — but I currently belong to only three of these: Mensa, Triple Nine, and Prometheus. I am the founder of Prometheus and of the Noetic Society (formerly called the Titan Society). I consider myself the founder of the Mega Society, although some argue that Chris Harding has at least equal claim to that status. I am also a co-founder of the Triple Nine Society. Thus, I have been at least partly responsible for the establishment of four of the seven currently active high-IQ societies.

The article notes "It was the very first song played on Newcastle's first commercial FM radio station, NEW-FM. ... The station's founder, Mike Webb, chose Long Way to the Top to put his baby to air on April 14, 1989. The new FM player tore off a huge chunk of the ratings at the expense of 2NX, Newcastle's existing hit music station."
Sadlier, Kevin (7 May 1989). "Radio". Television. The Sun-Herald. Sydney: John Fairfax Holdings. p. 116. Retrieved 16 April 2010 – via NewsBank.
The article notes "NEWCASTLE'S newest station, NEW-FM, was officially launched last night with a spectacular pysotechnics/laser/rock show - the largest free entertainment event ever held in the Hunter region, according to NEW's Mike Webb. NEW can be found at 105.3 on the FM band."
The article notes: "NEW-FM celebrated its 10th birthday last month. ... Instead of dishing out party favours, new owner Bill Caralis cut costs and staff and flicked the switch to night music networked out of his Lismore station. ... When they left in November 1993 to join Triple M in Adelaide, the failure to find a winning replacement spearheaded the ratings nose-dive that paved the way for 2HD's $2.3million buy-out of NEW's mostly local shareholders in 1994. But after five years of Labor control, NEW is still a long way from the glory of its early years under founder Mike Webb."
The article notes: "THE NSW Labor Party and Labor Council have handed control of radio stations 2HD and NEW-FM to regional radio mogul Bill Caralis a week before the State election. The outgoing chairman of the Sandgate-based broadcasters, John Price, said Friday's official change of ownership would 'enable the NSW ALP to concentrate on better serving the Hunter community'. The sale price is believed to have been $12.5million"
The article notes: "He has spent an estimated $40 million in the past 12 months on additional licences and a state-of-the-art broadcast centre, and is the force behind a shake-up of commercial radio. So, asks Mark Day, who is Bill Caralis? ... While Caralis's Broadcast Operations Pty Ltd is a private company, he has every right to tell us all to go to hell. ... He stunned the radio industry last year when he bought two Newcastle stations -- NEW FM and 2HD -- from the NSW Labor Council for more than $11 million, double the 'Bill will need to have deep pockets' value ascribed to them less than a year earlier."

Disputed AfC submission. This subject fails WP:GNG or WP:ANYBIO by all means. The milestone "Tony Elumelu Entrepreneur" does not inherently confer notability as over a hundred could be in a year. The source analysis below will give you further insight. I also suspectWP:UPE and WP:COI going on.
Whether some will say TED, the publisher of this video, is reliable or YouTube is an unreliable source, this is unreliable still because it involves the appearance of the subject.
Reading this piece makes it clear that it is not entirely independent of the subject. The phrase "Courtesy Nelly Agbogu" at the end suggests that she is the source of this information, implying that either she provided it directly or the information is being shared with her permission or acknowledgment.
While the publication is reliable, we can't rely on a piece that fails WP:INDEPENDENCE.

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}}.
Comment: The assessment table created by the nom seems to disregard every source. My use of sources is based onWP:NGRS ensuring that the subject passes WP:GNG. I am even more surprised to see the assessment of CNN and TedX. Marking all the notable newspapers Vanguard, Punch, The Sun etc as unreliable makes me wonder what Nigerian Editors can then use for referencing. Also, kindly look at his talk page to see how our conversations based on his accusation prior to this went (I can’t seem to link to it).

Delete: I have confirmed the source analysis table independently and before reading it. I suggest the be a soft delete - without prejudice to future re-creation - because I sense that Nelly Agbogu approaches WP:BIO despite not quite being there, certainly as referenced. A major rewrite and re-referencing at this stage will change my mind, provided the WP:HEY is done sufficiently well.

PS: The referencing is also rather lacking: I checked out a few of the sources, and the first one (#1) did not verify the DOB against which it is cited; the second (#7) is cited at the end of the 'Biography' and verifies only the very last, and arguably the least significant, statement in that section, with the educational history completely unsupported; and the third (#8) does verify that she worked for Schlumberger, but not what role she held.

The source from which got the DOB is here, although it appears I ended up not adding it to the reference list.

Delete per WP:N. There are no independent, reliable sources of information about this crash. The ASN source cites airdisaster.ru as its source of information, airdisaster.ru does not cite any sources itself and has been the topic of a past discussion at Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_446#airdisaster.ru.

I've spent some time trying to find even a brief mention of this accident in reliable sources, and have failed. While Wikipedia's notability guideline is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the current state of sourcing in an article, the policy does state that information on Wikipedia must be verifiable; if no reliable, independent sources can be found on a topic, then it should not have a separate article.

As part of WP:NPP it was draftified for improvement, for instance waiting until it has proven to be viable.

Lean keep Unlike a lot of these fledgling companies, that end up promising a lot of vaporware, this case is likely different. This engine has the backing of Northrop Grumman, which needs it to power its Antares rocket, which it needs to lift the Cygnus spacecraft into space to resupply the International Space Station per the terms of its Commercial Resupply Services contract witch NASA. So there’s a lot riding on this program, which all adds to its notability. Furthermore, if this engine program fails, that itself may be notable if it ends the entire Antares rocket program.

Invoking CRYSTALBALL is frivolous and agaist the spirit\intention of the guideline. KroOoOze (talk) 18:32, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I understand your concern, however I’ll point out that this engine has completed several hot fire tests, that were shared by Northrop Grumman. So in my opinion, it’s not entirely correct to point to WP:CRYSTALBALL. This isn’t just a product announcement or rumors when they actually have a working product and a deadline to deliver that’s just months away at this point. RickyCourtney (talk) 05:24, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia has many problems, but reference information being readily available ain't one of them. With consideration to how this frivolous demand was brought up, I suggest to summarily dismiss this and not waste any more of anyone's time. Whether this is inlined and put under another pointless redirection is a distinction without difference to normal people. So if anyone wants to waste his time doing this, whatever. But don't deny access to the users in the process by (soft or hard) deleting it.

The engine was test-fired, so it has more than sufficient physicality. People expect to find all this basic information here. I don't think there is precedent, and purging all development engines from Wikipedia is, on the face of it, bizzare idea. The template itself has a state available for whether the engine is in development or in any other stage; i.e. it is normal and expected there would be articles about engines in development.

The petitioner out of the blue tried to draftify the article, with complete disregard for any links to it. He tried do draftify it despite it existing more than 90 days (years in fact). Now it is clear the motivation was as a prelude to deletion. In this discussion several frivolous reasons for deletion are thrown around simply trying to see what sticks, while concern over what actually most benefits the users is not considered. Any large rocket engine is very much "notable" to people in the field as well as fans, regardless whether currently in development or not. One could claim Too_soon with maybe some concept that will be renamed two more times and doesn't have anything but the name in the first place, but hardly this engine at this stage. KroOoOze (talk) 18:23, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please do not provide incorrect information. As I clarified, the earlier page was a {{redirect}}. If it was a real page then it was not eligible for draftification. However, it was a new page and as such goes through the standard Wikipedia:New pages patrol process.
that is to say keep. It is self-evidently WP:N to anyone even vaguely interested in this area. And to others, reporting on it do exist confirming notability per WP:NPOSSIBLE. Deletion cannot be considered a serious suggestion; as it would leave Wikipedia in worse state than before. It is a WP:RECKLESS suggestion. As for merging, rocket engines of this class are typically (and should be) in standalone article, and do not require context of another article. KroOoOze (talk) 18:48, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think you've misunderstood the policies you've linked. Nothing is self-evidently notable on Wikipedia: unless it falls under the purview of a WP:SNG, a topic is only notable when it meets the requirements of WP:GNG by having received sustained, in depth coverage in reliable, independent sources. WP:NPOSSIBLE is about poor quality articles that can easily be improved because they have received WP:SIGCOV that is not already included in the article - by my count, I could only find one reliable source not already included in the Miranda article, and the amount of detailed information presented in all the sources I could access was minimal. Ethmostigmus 🌿 (talk | contribs) 12:40, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think you did. You are refering to guidelines as "policies". Anyway. MSM coverage is a proxy for notability, not a goal unto itself. I did claim it is self-evident to me and reasonably any spaceflight fan, as much as gravity is self-evident to any planet dweller. To others, the evidence that people "noticed" this engine is a thing is that these articles do exist. Second-hand sources do not always improve an article. KroOoOze (talk) 21:02, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge with Firefly Aerospace per WP:NSUSTAINED, WP:FUTURE, WP:PAGEDECIDE, WP:NOTPROMO, etc etc. While a few reliable sources have briefly covered the testing of this engine, it fails WP:GNG - there is not yet enough detailed coverage to warrant a standalone article. I think this is a clear case of WP:TOOSOON. This engine may well become independently notable in the future, but currently, there simply is not enough coverage to provide all but the most basic information on it. Until further SIGCOV appears, this seems better handled as a subsection of the Firefly Aerospace article. Ethmostigmus 🌿 (talk | contribs) 03:21, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Relisting. We have arguments to Delete, Merge and one editor Leaning Keep so there is no consensus here yet.

Source analysis: There are 5 sources. 1, 2, 5 are all web articles by the manufacturer, so are not independent and (IMO) weak. Both sources 3 & 4 are from specialized science web news sites, and mainly repeat statements by the two companies, so are also weak on independence; there are no comments from independent experts. They are not from, for instance, a major national or international newspaper, and there is no comment from NASA, JPL etc experts. I do not consider that the current article has any reliable, secondary and independent sources. Ldm1954 (talk) 03:59, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Besides the source listed in the article currently, I found the following:
A few short articles on niche aerospace news websites[42][43][44] of unclear reliability/independence, and one particularly shameful article[45] that just reads like an ad
While SpaceNews isn’t a household name, Jeff Faust has become quite respected among the small cadre of full-time space journalists. He’s also probably the only one with a PhD from MIT. I’d argue he’s a reliable source.
While I don’t recognize the name of the journalist from Space.com, the site does have the green check of approval as a reliable source for Wikipedia.
Merge, as I see that it yet lacks enough notability (see WP:TOOSOON). It would be okay to merge with Firefly Aerospace. As of right now, I see that it only has the notability of the Reaver (engine) of fiefly space or the Aeon engine of relativity space, both of which don't have their own articles. Even if one deems the thing notable, they should first create an article on Firefly's MLV vehicle. Pygos (talk) 06:27, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Normally I would agree with you, however, in this case, this engine will first fly on the Antares (rocket), scheduled in less than a year from now, long before the MLV is ready. The Antares, of course, has a long established page. RickyCourtney (talk) 10:34, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I think this discussion boils down to the issue of how current Wikipedia should be. The issue is whether an engine being developed should be a redirect to a section in the page of the relevant company, as it was prior to July 22, 2024, or a page in its own right (post July 22, 2024). If an engine for space, land or anything else has really unique features such that even testing it is a breakthrough (verified by multiple sources) then it merits a page where these are detailed. Without this I don't see why an exception should be made. In particular I will ask What Is The Rush? If the engine becomes a roaring success then change the redirect to a page, otherwise let's be patient and wait. Ldm1954 (talk) 07:41, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Move and improve. Rather than delete. While it is likely true that the embassy (the office/building/institution/whatever) doesn't have independent notability, there is plenty of coverage of Ireland-Ukraine relations generally. So, personally, I'd suggest that the article be increased in scope slightly. And moved to Ukraine–Ireland relations. Similar to Ireland–Russia relations. Or Spain–Ukraine relations. Or others. With a redirect left behind. If that's "too much", the title should (at the very least) be retargeted to List of diplomatic missions of Ukraine. Personally don't think that outright deletion is the best approach here. Guliolopez (talk) 17:37, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your note. There is already, on a second review, a title on the subject. At Ireland–Ukraine relations. So we wouldn't need to create an (additional) article on that subject. We'd just need to merge/redirect the content (on the embassy - which effectively covers foreign relations as a whole anyway) to the existing title. Personally I think that's the best course of action. Rather than deleting (and then effectively recreating) the content/topic/title. Guliolopez (talk) 09:43, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep but concurring with the "move and improve" of User:Guliolopez - consider creating Ukraine-Ireland relations and move this into there with more on the relations rather than the embassy. I did find this from the Kyiv Post - it's part 2 so presumably part 1 also has useful info. And I assume that Dublin newspapers will also cover the topic. That seems much more important than the embassy. Lamona (talk) 04:02, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I'm finding the same as bonadea. Here is something more recent that mentions her, but again in the context of her death and without significant biographical coverage. -- asilvering (talk) 20:12, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I should add that there is limited coverage of her in the context of her striking another politician with a shoe (example), which is also not very useful for WP:GNG, and some routine election coverage (example). So while I think it's plausible that there is solid biographical coverage out there, I don't think we've found it yet. If anyone can turn up an obituary (rather than an article about the circumstances of her death) that might give us something to go on. -- asilvering (talk) 20:21, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In our opinion, Iranians, this is the best movie in the Middle East, and if there is a little source now, it is because this movie has just been waiting and the article will gradually mature and grow, and I ask you not to show too much sensitivity on this issue and let it remain an article to avoid wiki law. 5.233.227.181 (talk) 17:43, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
(My initial !vote above is about Zen-chan Tsū-chan). I hadn't seen this was a bundled nom when I !voted through the assisted script. Procedural keep. These series have very little in common. And it's hard to discuss and improve the 3 at the same time without long tedious explanations and comments about what precisely is relevant to each case. -My, oh my!

I would like to see some way to keep the content, and suggest a merge to Fuji Television. For the ones which are made by Fuji, which doesn't include Zen-chan (please, please, don't do combined nominations of disparate articles!). Not sure about Zen-chan, as like @Mushy Yank this came up as a single article for me and I hadn't given it any thought before starting this commentOn Pinch to Punch it's unfortunate that there is so little secondary material out there although it seems even the primary material has been lost. This attests to its importance in the context of the development of Anime. This article could be perfectly happy as a stub, verified by what little information is out there, but it's hard to make a case for IAR on this. Keep based on the anime encyclopedia entry and the existence of multiple shorter sources in the en. article and in the jp. article. Although the encyclopedia is the only lengthy treatment found, the article subject is clearly a launching point in the history of Japanese anime. The article is verifiable and the project benefits (and has little to lose) from these stub articles. Since this is basically an IAR argument, I've struck my inconsistent comment above. I still wouldn't object to a merge as a backup. Oblivy (talk) 07:09, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The issue with developing these articles would be our inability to access archives which would have information about an anime series from 50 years ago. Hard to imagine that Pinch and Punch, a series with 156 episodes airing on a national TV channel, wouldn't be notable with access to the correct archives. If someone is interested, perhaps Fuji or the National Film Archive of Japan can help? I would personally either keep or merge the articles at a minimum.

Keep. I expanded it from another source. The nominator's comment "Being the first president of the National Teachers Association isn't enough" seems to suggest that WP:GNG-based notability is based on significance of accomplishments. It is not. It is based on depth of reliable sourcing. I think the multi-page profile I added and the paragraph about him in the SUNY 1895 source are enough, for someone from that time. And as for accomplishments: president of what is now the National Education Association is significant, but far from his only accomplishment. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:54, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:ILIKEIT. While you may enjoy the article, personal preference doesn't factor into AfDs, only evidence that a full article can be created based on the idea of "rules lawyering". ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 07:06, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The article as it is now, although short, already has some content which would not fit into a dictionary. And a WP:BEFORE search shows that various sources dealing with table-top roleplaying games have more to say: On A Roll p. 45, The Civilized Guide to Tabletop Gaming p. 66 and The Postmodern Joy of Role-Playing Games all have about a page of content, including commentary. And the journal Analog Game Studies Vol. IV has a full essay on the topic. How can 6+ pages contain "only a definition"? So it seems to me the nomination is mostly talking about the current status of the article, which is not decisive when deciding about deletion. All that said, the first and primary paragraph could be merged in to Role-playing game terms, and later be spun out again as soon as someone uses the listed sources further. But aside from that fact that I see no advantage in that, it would already be akward to fit in the other contexts where same term may pop up, but more rarely so if the Google Books search is any indication. Daranios (talk) 15:29, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Analog Game Studies is a good source, the others seem like definitions or brief mentions in the middle of talking about something else. Usually one solid source is still not enough to merit a full page. Therefore I am still not "convinced", though I will admit there is a non zero amount of coverage about the concept of rules lawyering in RPGs. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:23, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Zxcvbnm: The first two books (sorry, I had a wrong link there) each have a specific section dedicated to the topic, so brief mentions in the middle of talking about something else is not correct here. The third one does talk about the concept in a larger context, but has significant analysis way beyond a definition (what it means for the game, contrast to other concept,...). So is there material to expand the article beyond the length of a stub? Absolutely! Daranios (talk) 10:07, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep coverage is sufficient to meet WP:N and we have more than just a dictionary definition. I could see a broader article on this plus related things such as RAW and RAI (as mentioned above). Hobit (talk) 17:36, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Fails WP:NOTDICTIONARY, with the article besides the pure definition of gamesmanship (which, in itself, is partly WP:OR) being an example farm of different sports. Beyond that, it mostly cites the book written by the person who popularized (and possibly invented) the term, a primary source that doesn't contribute to notability. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:10, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The article is certainly in rough shape, but it already contains secondary sources establishing notability. For instance, The Timelessness of Steven Potter's "Gamesmanship" discusses the concept and its origins and impact at length. That essay also contains pointers to additional potential sources such as this apparently-famous book which applies the concept to the behaviour of corporate executives. Similar sources appear to be plentiful on Google Books and Google Scholar. So this looks to me like WP:SIGCOV. Botterweg14 (talk)22:44, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You say it discusses the concept at length, but it appears to be about the book itself. Do you have access to the book to pinpoint where exactly it discusses the concept alone and then demonstrate that evidence? Right now we have no way to know whether you have read the book or if it is simply an assumption. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 07:15, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There seems to be some uncertainty about current placement, but that does not mean that the species does not exist or does not represent a valid classification. It appears in one recent checklist as a cyprinid [52] but in another, as well as in Fishbase and CoL (and our article) as Bagridae[53][54][55], and is present in a number of other checklists and publications [56][57]. CoL states "Considered in some literature as synonym of Chandramara chandramara (Hamilton)" (also a bagrid). So, the taxonomic status is murky, but that is something to sort out out and summarize in the article. No grounds for deletion. (The "misidentification" mentioned above refers to particular specimens from a particular collection, and has no bearing on taxonomic status as a whole.) --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 06:06, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There doesn't appear to be any in depth secondary coverage which is the grounds for deletion. I can't access the last link but all the others are quite trivial in coverage. Traumnovelle (talk) 06:50, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We do not require "in-depth coverage" for species in excess of the original description and inclusion in multiple reliable databases. I am aware that discussions are ongoing re WP:NSPECIES (see Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(species)), but what you are assuming here sounds like one of the far-end positions in that discourse that was never going to gain majority traction, and certainly does not seem likely to end up as the conclusion. If that is your deletion rationale, then this is an assured non-starter. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 08:14, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
...welcome to AfD, where we get this exact issue twice a month, which is why we are currently trying to formalize it into a special notability guideline.

WP:BLP1E. Only notable for the shooting, and unlike Thomas Matthew Crooks, who actually injured Trump during the attempt, Routh did not even shoot close to Trump (sources have said he was 300-500 yards away). Even though the FBI has said this is an assassination attempt, very little is known about the suspect at this time. MarioProtIV (talk/contribs) 03:56, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wait: He doesn't have to have injured Trump to be notable; that's not a requirement. Honestly, some of the good arguments used to support keeping the article of Thomas Matthew Crooks could apply to Ryan Wesley Routh. I'm just less convinced of his notability so I won't !vote to keep this time. I think we should wait for more details to appear before we try to determine whether or not he's notable; it's still too early. Nythar (💬-🍀) 04:15, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, Waiting is the best option for the next 24 hours. Leaning towards Draftify/Redirect if nothing else is dug up but his previous activism may be promising. Page metadata needs to be changed, it already claims this guy is an assassin (the point is somewhat moot but I think it’s premature). 🏵️Etrius ( Us)05:09, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think waiting feels a little CRYSTALLBALLish. Presumed future notability really oughtn't matter when deciding whether an article is notable enough right now, which is all we're here to do. So there's probably an argument for the article being WP:TOOSOON. Still, I agree with you that many of the arguments used in favour of keeping Thomas Matthew Crooks could apply here (while also sharing your doubts about notability), so I'll hold off from a !vote for now. GhostOfNoMeme12:43, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't participate in many of these debates. I think the original author should have waited longer before making the page in the first place. It's been made though and what's done is done - for the moment. Let's not further exacerbate the rush to make it by rushing to delete it. No one will suffer one way or another if we wait a bit before deleting it.
So here's the tl;dr of things...he's not charged with attempted murder, because he never fired a shot, he was stopped before he could.
So its technically not an attempted assassination by legal standards, which is why he's only facing gun charges.
(yes the law IS that complicated and convoluted).
there's a reason why the article people are suggesting to merge this with is just called a "shooting" as opposed to an assassination attempt. GokuSS400 (talk) 22:52, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete / merge back into the main article. As Trump was not injured and no shots were fired at him, I suspect Routh's notability to fade, like many of the other people who are listed at Security incidents involving Donald Trump. This is less of an assassination attempt as it is a security incident or foiled plan. (Luckily) the Secret Service did its job. Natg 19 (talk) 04:29, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree but I'm not sure if it's a good thing to delete the article now that it's been created. Ideally it wouldn't have been created until we were sure that the subject is notable. Nythar (💬-🍀) 05:01, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep laughable to even consider deletion - how much clear political bias does wiki need to unendingly display?! Arguments: obviously WP:RAPID since we have no idea how deep down the rabbit hole this one goes and obviously not WP:BLP1E since he was previously arrested with a fully automatic machine gun = weapon of mass destruction!2600:8800:FF0E:300:7C5A:797:4AF2:99DF (talk) 04:54, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
An automatic firearm is not a weapon of mass destruction, despite how the media spins it. It was not what Bush was searching for in Iraq, since there are literal tonnes of AKs there. Thus the WMD issue is a non-starter, so not relevant to notablity -- 64.229.88.34 (talk) 05:16, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Owning an AK-47 does not in any way lend itself to establishing notability. This is Florida. If I had a nickel for everyone down here who owns a military style assault rifle, I could stop buying lottery tickets. -Ad Orientem (talk) 06:22, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep We don't get very many presidential assassins here on wikipedia and presidential assassins are inherently notable and this event has lots of sources already. The FBI has announced this was an attempted assassination and that makes the subject of this article notable. He has been arrested and charged and will be prosecuted. At present, the FBI has not obtained an indictment which should come very soon, after which this Afd can be updated. Too soon to delete this article. 24.21.161.89 (talk) 06:23, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Could you point me to the guideline that says failed presidential assassins are inherently notable? I've been around a while but must have missed that one. -Ad Orientem (talk) 06:30, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I can point you to numerous articles on presidential assassins which each have their own article. If you try to assassinate a president or former president of the United States, you will most certainly make it into the history books. I don't think I need to state the obvious. The "Guideline" is what gets reduced to practice on WP, and all these former assassins have an article which is reducing it to practice. 24.21.161.89 (talk) 07:05, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. He already had a fair bit of media coverage before his attempted assassination of Trump, due to his activities in Ukraine. And of course now with his attempted shooting and subsequent arrest and trial, there will be a whole lot more coverage. There doesn't really seem to be any reason to doubt his notability at this point -2003:CA:8718:B90B:3530:38D0:867B:345C (talk) 06:42, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The man didn't even get close, and he's about to go to prison for a very long time where I doubt he's going to have any more notable events that would qualify him for a wiki page. I say this as someone who voted keep on Thomas Matthew Crooks, this guy is not gonna remain notable enough to get his own page a week from now. --Aabicus (talk) 06:49, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - clearly passing WP:GNG right now. Would be presidential assassin. Which is rare. The sourcing is third party and good at the moment. Keep it.BabbaQ (talk) 07:26, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge or keep; leaning on merge Certainly not a full delete, in case more info comes out and he warrants a page again, I'd like for the edit history to be easily seen for a potential reconstruction. But at the moment, there's not enough info about him to warrant him a page.Unnamed anon (talk) 07:29, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete but only for now. Routh may become more significant as time passes but as of right now we have little to no information about him aside from his past endeavors. I say wait until the FBI interrogates him and we get a more fleshed out story as he is still alive.TJD2 (talk) 08:06, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The subject is notable at the moment as more details about him is being unraveled. Suspect was caught alive by FBI according to sources and not dead. The Afd nomination is too quick. — Preceding unsigned comment added by War Term (talk • contribs) 08:56, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for now. This discussion should have started on the talk page per WP:ATD. Anyway... my keep opinion is based on WP:RAPID, another option is to have a redirect to the article where his name is mentioned. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 09:58, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify/Temporarily Delete while he definitely has the potential for notability, it is important to remember that WP:BLPCRIME still applies even if he's been convicted of a previous offense. It is rather easy to have false/uncertain information circulate especially in the very early stages of a highly publicized event. The FBI/Secret Service has had less than a day to investigate this, and perceived notions around this case can change rapidly. And even then, they are not a jury which can give a conviction.
For this reason I believe it is best to temporarily delete (or to draftify incase of reinstation) as this accusation is the only reason he is notable enough to be considered for his own article, and even then the notability is being debated above.
WP:BLPCRIME shouldn't be ignored just because this is a high profile case, and I am frankly a bit concerned that not a single person has even mentioned this guideline in the entire discussion . Floine (talk) 10:25, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for now, for the simple reason that there are independent global and third-party sources about him that tell and delve into his life and story. It is not the first time that is under the media spotlight [59] for is controversial supporting on Ukrainian-Russia war. For now he has considerable notability as a criminal. 109.114.14.46 (talk) 10:35, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -- WP:BLP1E on an event that itself is facing an argument on whether it deserves a stand-alone article. I second deletion. Let us stop making an article for every idiot who trespasses with intentions to commit a felony. We are not a Tabloid! Delete immediately or lose the credibility as an Encyclopaedia. Also, giving visibility to such people reinforces their desire to kill.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.87.68.175 (talk • contribs)
In that case, see Salvador Ramos, a man who killed 21 people in ~90 minutes, also someone who doesn't have an article because the section on them is perfectly fine. The only notability by Routh so far is his involvement in an incident not even primarily regarding him (WP:CRIME). While he does meet Perp criteria 1, they still don't even know if this is the right guy. Sir MemeGod :D (talk - contribs - created articles) 14:05, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: I was able to find more articles that date back before his attempted assassination, including his marriage and his life with his wife. Plus, it is the second attempted assassination of Donald Trump during the 2024 Election. Yoshiman6464♫🥚14:55, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep; does not satisfy the deletion requirements re: WP:BLP1E. To wit, requirement 3 (The event was not significant and/or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well-documented) is not met:
The event is significant; it is an assassination attempt of a former President of the United States. The example that BLP1E gives for notability is literally the Reagan assassination attempt.
The role of Ryan Wesley Routh is substantial; he is the primary suspect.
While the role of Ryan Wesley Routh is not well documented, this is covered by WP:RAPID as multiple people have noted, as the situation has not yet had enough time to develop and be written about.
The event was not "significant". The example given is the Reagan assassination attempt, where Reagan was severely wounded and nearly died. All that happened yesterday was that someone was found with a gun in a bush at Trump's golf course. No injuries at all – Routh didn't even let off any shots. All three criteria of BLP1E are met here (1: Covered in the context of a single event; 2: Obviously a low-profile individual; 3: the event was not "significant" enough to warrant a separate biography). CFA💬20:11, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with you, but regarding Routh didn't even let off any shots I don't think it's known either way, yet. CBC and NPR are both reporting that it's "unclear" whether he let off any shots before the USSS agent(s?) opened fire. The New York Times similarly says it's unclear whether he took any shots "before fleeing" (presumably meaning the time between being engaged by the agents and his fleeing).
Well, fair enough, I guess. I was reading this Politico article which states: The Sunday incident was “not like what happened in Butler,” [the sherrif] said ... “He did not get off any rounds, and that was because the Secret Service agent acted quickly,”. CFA💬23:44, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's apparent by now that the shooter did not manage to fire the weapon, but then again, neither did Squeaky Fromme. Given her association with Manson and her well-documented story she has her own article. Routh apparently has a well-documented criminal history and has been the subject of numerous interviews and articles; that on their own wouldn't be notable enough for a BLP -- but his involvement with what is an apparent assassination plot has made him notable. Similar to Fromme, her notability would be diminished had she not plotted to kill a president. Kcmastrpc (talk) 13:50, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Gregory Lee Leingang also tried to kill President Trump in 2017, but he did not get his own Wikipedia page. Neither men made a shot or any contact with him. Catboy69 (talk) 16:13, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep - It is true that Thomas Matthew Crooks underwent the same treatment in its early stages, with attempted redirects along the way. I'm against using that as keep justification though, considering that he has been confirmed as the attempted assassin of his case, whereas Routh is unconfirmed-- not to mention that there were no shots fired nor injuries sustained. Reasoning for weak keep is that there is significant media coverage, paired with the identification of being a suspect. RadiantTea (talk) 16:32, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per earlier precedent such as Crooks. We are seeing the beginnings where political violence is being normalized once again in the US since the 1960s (Ronald Reagan's assassin wasn't really politically-motivated ..more of a celebrity fetish/crush thing ). Such novel developments should be represented via individuals such as these. I also disagree with editors saying "He barely did anything" , this also doesn't fit precedents in other cases (1) . Routh is notable enough , whenever he pulled the trigger or not. The fact he was the second person who attempted to assassinate Trump and has a clear political history compared to the late aloof and equivocal Crooks (Who literally was a kid), makes him in some way more interesting for readers.
Delete per WP:BLP1E and WP:LASTING. Not notable for just this one incident at this time, and appears unlikely to be notable in the future (with the event itself currently bordering on being notable enough to sustain an article). —Locke Cole • t • c18:54, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep he satisfies the notability requirements, the shooting and his Russo-Ukrainian War related activities combined together satisfy the guidelines.XavierGreen (talk) 19:20, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for now. Given all the speculation, thorough coverage of Routh would unbalance the main article, but a brief summary is likely to produce an unbalanced account of Routh's politics and motivations. Nuance matters in a politically charged issue like this one, and the best way to maintain nuance is to maintain an article, at least for now. Guettarda (talk) 19:27, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep At this point in time it quite literally is too soon to dismiss him as not notable or not worthy of coverage. It has been ONE day since the investigation began. To close the book on him and say he's not worthy of note is a rush to judgement on many fronts. While the investigation runs its course and the Court moves as well, it can be re-evaluated as more information comes to light. However for the moment, rushing to delete or saying both the would-be assailant and the incident are not notable is an extreme rush to judgement as there are obviously facts that we don't know yet. In cases like this it's best to wait a few days and as much as a week before making any judgement calls. GokuSS400 (talk) 20:46, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP This person tried to assassinate a former President who is a current party's nominee for president. This was almost immediately known; and every fact disclosed since the attempted assassination has confirmed that it was an attempted assassination. The FBI has now stated that he was "lying in wait" for Trump for nearly 12 hours. Let the people see the facts as they are publicly known... otherwise, the attempt to delete this article is just another censorship attempt. What else do you need... a conviction? Dw1215 (talk) 20:46, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and redirect As clear a case of WP:BLP1E as there is. The incident is notable, but that's about it. If a person in Uruguay, Botswana, Laos, or Fiji appeared in the vicinity of a leading politician, we wouldn't even consider having a separate article for them. The US are no different. Jeppiz (talk) 20:51, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I strongly disagree with this. Routh's situation is more akin to someone like Gregory Lee Leingang, who also had an "attempt" to assassinate Trump but did not get close enough to injure him. Leingang is briefly mentioned on Security incidents involving Donald Trump, and so Routh could be mentioned there, or at the main article about this incident. Natg 19 (talk) 21:09, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@HAL333 You understand that WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS applies to your example of John Hinckley Jr., right? Though I agree with Natg that Hinckley isn't in the same category as Routh appears to be. As far as conditions are concerned, Routh's role may have been "substantial" in the context of the "apparent" attempted assassination, but there's an or there that you seem to be missing, and that's the event is not significant, and this one clearly is borderline right now given nothing happened (nobody was hurt or injured, and one Secret Service agent fired his weapon). Being well-documented in RS is not sufficient enough to justify a separate article. —Locke Cole • t • c23:17, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nice straw man. Hinckley's not my example. It's WP:BLP1E's. And the "or" is irrelevant if Routh meets both points for condition 3, as he does. An assassination arrempt on the former POTUS is not "significant"? Come on. Notability is not dependent on fatality. ~ HAL33323:54, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am not sure if I would cite BLP1E for this. I believe this fits more under WP:NOPAGE. However, if we are to argue BLP1E, I don't believe this is incident is "significant" per point 3. Routh was not close enough to Trump to fire off a shot, nor was anyone injured in this incident. This incident is given more press coverage in light of the assassination attempt in July, but if this incident had happened in January or February, no one would think much of it. Natg 19 (talk) 23:21, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
... but the event was not significant (criteria 3 of BLP1E). Routh apparently never even let off a shot. He was found in a bush with a gun and was promptly arrested. Hinckley, on the other hand, actually shot (and nearly killed) Reagan. CFA💬23:48, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Trump International Golf Club shooting. Very clearly a violation of BLP1E, which is exemplified by basically all of the sources in the article being from yesterday and today. Claims he was notable prior, such as by Scaledish just above me, are not represented in the slightest. Further claims of individual notability just because of this incident are belied by the other examples in Security incidents involving Donald Trump, where there have been several assassination attempts on Trump over the past decade, with only the one prior to this being notable enough to have a separate article on the perpetrator. Please note that many of the accounts voting Keep above are both new and WP:SPAs who aren't even making policy reasons in their votes, so should be wholesale disregarded by the closer. Failure of the closer to do so will prompt me (and I'm sure many others) to immediately take this to Deletion Review, as what matters in AfDs is policy arguments, not numbers. SilverserenC02:40, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the closer should disregard any WP:RAPID arguments, as by the very nature of the policy page it is on, RAPID is about events, not people. So if this was an AfD for the Trump International Golf Club shooting, then it would be a policy argument, but this is not an event article, this is a BLP article. Furthermore, literally right above RAPID on the same policy page is WP:DELAY, which applies just as much, if not more so. SilverserenC02:42, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note to closer I am neither new nor an SPA. I have been editing for over 15 years and have made over 100,000 edits. As for WP:RAPID, that guideline language says It is wise to delay writing an article about a breaking news event until the significance of the event is clearer. 36 hours after the Secret Service fired the shots, the significance of the event and the accused is crystal clear to those who read the voluminous coverage in many reliable sources that have published independent coverage of this man today. Cullen328 (talk) 03:14, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do you acknowledge that there's a ton of SPAs and newly made accounts here making non-policy arguments? As for RAPID, you even note yourself that the event is significant, but we're not discussing the event here. We're discussing if the accused has independent notability from the event, which RAPID doesn't support and also has not been shown. Large amounts of coverage of the event doesn't inherently then mean the person involved deserves a separate article. SilverserenC03:56, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Silver seren, we do not delete a new article because new editors support keeping the article, especially when experienced editors like me also support keeping the article. Major top tier news sources worldwide are not only reporting on the event, but are also publishing countless separate independent articles devoted to investigating the background of this person who has multiple felony convictions including for barricading himself with a machine gun about 20 years ago, and who was written up in the New York Times just last year for his incompetent efforts to recruit former Afghan soldiers to go fight against Russia in Ukraine. As well as being a Wikipedia editor and administrator, I am also a Wikipedia reader and user. In those last two roles, I resent the efforts of some Wikipedia editors to deny me the right to learn as much about this person as possible in a curated article in the world's greatest encyclopedia, instead forcing me and other readers to do online searches and evaluate source reliability on our own, and sort out the grains of wheat from the massive internet chaff. That is the very purpose of Wikipedia, and if folks want to delete articles about people like Squeaky Fromme and this individual, I will always oppose that vigorously. Cullen328 (talk) 06:25, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete far too many editors playing investigator and connecting his name with old newspaper articles. Everything that actually should be included is mentioned on the article about the shooting. Traumnovelle (talk) 08:25, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Traumnovelle, the connections to "old newspaper articles" is being made by the highest quality reliable sources now, not by Wikipedia editors doing their own original research. Are you reading the actual coverage? Cullen328 (talk) 09:37, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm reading what was in the article. Which at the time was original research that goes against NOTPRIMARY and BLP in some cases such as marriage records. Traumnovelle (talk) 18:38, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect/Merge. As it stands, the page feels like a more verbose version of the perpetrator section on the golf club page. I don't feel like that's needed context per WP:PAGEDECIDE. If people look up his name to get the attempt, we could easily redirect it to that section and lose minimal context, if any. HeptatonicScale (talk) 09:51, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. WP:BLP1ENOT. Role in the particular recent event significant. Role well-documented. Event notable. Not a low-profile individual. Reliable sources do not even cover him only in the context of a single event. Possible to write a biography as evidenced by the content of the page. Content encyclopedic and educational. Facts due. Background and context encyclopedically meaningful. Too much information alien to the event and far removed from it to merge into the event article.—Alalch E.12:08, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Interesting essay, and this individual clearly meets the criteria discussed in it. Pretty obvious why some editors want this BLP binned. Yet, we have Thomas Matthew Crooks, who outside of an initial flurry of coverage, it's highly unlikely that we'll get additional details around what motivated him or his background. Kcmastrpc (talk) 12:47, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge & redirect Some people may be interested in the other activities of this person, but that is for the tabloids: the pertinent information for inclusion on Wikipedia is entirely about his involvement in an event. That event has an article that is well-developed enough it warrants a decent "suspect" section. Keep the name redirect for searchability. I would probably say the same about Thomas Matthew Crooks, FWIW, but it can also be said that Crooks got a shot on and then was killed, so significance as an individual is a bit bigger.Kingsif (talk) 14:25, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That doesn't really account for Wikipedia having an article for Squeaky Fromme, but I don't want to wander too far into other stuff, etc. We cover aspects of a subjects life that reliable sources deem notable enough to cover in depth, per WP:WEIGHT. If RS cover other aspects of Routh's history in depth, Wikipedia has a responsibility to cover that as well (with respect to policy). Kcmastrpc (talk) 14:31, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You keep bringing up Fromme having an article and, as you note: WP:OTHERSTUFF. We're talking about this article, not if a different one should exist or if justification for one transfers to another.
It doesn't matter how many RSs decide to flavour the meal, if it's not information that establishes notability, then it shouldn't be considered here. While we (rightly) include that 'flavour' in BLPs, the notability has to be established first. When we take the flavour out, all we're left with is information that belongs at the event article. As I said, that article is decent enough you can have a longer "suspect" section including some background if you want. Kingsif (talk) 16:45, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
KeeporMerge: (I don't really care which one) - as long as the information is correct. This will be politicly important for the presidential election in the US, and that will be important for the world. As sad as that is. 90.186.87.94 (talk) 15:17, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge & Redirect: to Trump International Golf Club shooting. This article adequately covers the event, and there's a section about the suspect that can be expanded. We must keep in mind WP:BLPCRIME, which states that a living person accused of crime is presumed innocent until convicted by a court of law. There's no need for a separate article about Routh. DesiMoore (talk) 16:38, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Selective Merge & Redirect: to Trump International Golf Club shooting. Two policies point against a stand alone page - WP:BLP1E and WP:BLPCRIME. Both policies point to the core policies of material about living persons - articles "must be written conservatively and with regard for the subject's privacy.

Keep for now. An enough lot of RS coverage is coming out about Routh very recently and intially appears notable based on this, as with Crookes. Do not in principle oppose an AfD in a month or two's time once the dust has settled, but considering the further coverage during his trial and likely sentencing it seem unlikely to become unnotable. Spy-cicle💥 Talk?21:49, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I think That having an article on this man will help our historical understanding of this election, two assassination attempts in one election cycle is unprecedented. He's also an oddball, the information online about him and his motives tell an interesting story that is unique.

Meh. ZimZalaBim has some great points right above me. However, general notability guidelines are extremely selectively enforced. Would this be kept if it were, say, a person attempting to assassinate a foreign leader? I feel like this might belong better in the event article, just like Crooks, buuuuuuuut it's a major event, so I think it could be notable.

Blatantly obvious keep, this guy is accused of attempting to assassinate a former US president while that president is running for re-election as a candidate for one of the two major American parties. If this doesn't qualify as 'notable' in the eyes of dozens of Wikipedia editors, then what does count? Should we (the people who believe that some insect species found on a single unpopulated island in the Philippines are notable in their own small way) just give it up already? Should we just get it over with and delete Wikipedia altogether? Maybe, if we could have a small concession, we could delete everything except the Earth page, and on that write the word 'harmless' and nothing else? Perhaps, if I could be greedy, I could convince you to allow us to write 'mostly harmless', though it does take up more space? Joe (talk) 09:00, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as the WP:NOTBLP1E essay permits such articles on a low-profile individual notable for only a single event in which he had a substantial and well-documented role. He is an alleged attempted assassin of a former U.S. president who is currently running for a non-consecutive term in an election that has been described as an election that will determine the fate of democracy and therefore this individual will be a defining moment not just in the context of this assassination attempt but in this election. cookie monster75518:48, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The claim to notability, playing 66 minutes in the second league of Portugal, is extremely weak. There are some sources, but they seem like WP:ROUTINE transactional news: [60][61][62]. These two might be more substantial, but are paywalled: [63][64]. Perhaps someone can access them? Either way, his achievements were so minor that I don't think it meets the policies.

All universities, colleges and schools, including high schools, middle schools, primary (elementary) schools, and schools that only provide a support to mainstream education must either satisfy the notability guidelines for organizations, the general notability guideline, or both. For-profit educational organizations and institutions are considered commercial organizations and must satisfy those criteria. (See also WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES)

@Garsh2: I saw the California Aggie article in my search but did not mention it here as that publication is a campus newspaper run by students at UC Davis; see their Instagram profile. The Sacramento Bee article looks good, but I'm highly skeptical of the reliability of ToxicSites (citation 5), and I'm not sure if the government sources are independent enough to count towards notability as the site seems to be managed by the US Department of Energy. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 17:33, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Recreation of a deleted article following this AfD. Apparently because the wording and WP:REFBOMBS are different, it cannot be a G4 speedy... Non-notable, just as it was a month and a bit ago, with WP:REFBOMBS and no establishment of WP:GNG. Just because retired players are taking part, doesn't mean notability is inherited.

Keep As I previously commented that the page should not be deleted because this is known cricket league. And In this all are international cricket players. And this is the main page of league not season page and also old league. I think it should be not be deleted because a lot of news references are available.
You didn't actually contribute at the last AFD (at least not as this logged in user). But WP:NOTINHERITED applies- just because notable people compete, that doesn't make this event notable.

Comment:Hi, please note I was in the middle of updating the article when it was nominated for deletion. It is a significantly more fully developed piece than when nominated.jacobsatterfield (talk) 22:45, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The article has developed further (great!), but the references and discussion relate to a much broader topic. None of the new references have Stanley Hundred as their primary subject. Mulberry Island might be reasonable focus for an article with the existing content. So, I therefore that a merge to a broader topic, like Mulberry Island, would be better. Klbrain (talk) 22:57, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'd indeed support a subsection in Mulberry Island article if the consensus is that Stanley Hundred doesn't stand by itself. It would be much more precise/applicable than the previous attempted Warwick Shire merge. For geographic reference, Stanley Hundred would be about 1300 acres out of around 8000 that comprise the entirety of Mulberry Island. For temporal reference, it's about 150 years out of 400 years of recorded history in that area. The Mulberry Island article itself could be significantly expanded with content by a willing editor, there's much more colonial history that isn't given much attention currently, not to mention the overlap with the modern usage as Fort_Eustis aka Joint Base Langley-Eustis. Contra-wise, a large and sprawling Mulberry Island article could get difficult to follow. Might suggest looking for other examples of historical places of similar size to see what works well.
Do note that the cited Richie/Colonial Williamsburg source has over ten pages dedicated specifically to Stanley Hundred, and the place has it's own historical marker separate from Mulberry Island. But I'm ultimately ambivalent to how the taxonomy of WP pages should be structured, I leave that to the editing pros.::Jacobsatterfield (talk) 23:36, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment:Also as a point of reference for other reviewers/commentors, see the Flowerdew Hundred Plantation article, which is Yeardley's other plantation contemporary to this one. As that other historical location is not currently on an active military base, it is a bit more visited and well known/documented than this one. As such, another viable option would be to merge all of this under their founder George Yeardley, but again it boils down to personal preferences for one huge article or several smaller ones, perhaps the Article size guidance is helpful here? Guidance/priority/experience/wise words from a senior editor on WP preference to organizing articles by geography, time-period, or biographical association would be useful, as there's no clear taxonomic preference to the overall corpus.
Keep The current version of the page easily demonstrates notability. Whether the article topic is the primary subject of its sources are irrelevant: what matters is that they discuss the topic (other than passing references, like phone-book entries) and that the sources be reliable secondary sources. All but one is secondary (the exceptions being the Virginia Company records), and all of them are reliable. In this kind of context, such sources typically discuss early settlements in detail; I strongly doubt that they merely give passing references. Nyttend (talk) 21:48, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There's been some effort here to improve quality and better document notability. It is now least as good as many other historic articles of similar age/scope, and the articles that link to it. Appreciate Klbrain for originally taking interest in the article and encouraging the cleanup.

This is a compilation of wars that are mostly unrelated other than that they were waged by Muslim rulers/states. There is no one "Muslim conquest of Mediterranean islands". It neither describes anything that is unique to itself nor properly covers a broader history that reoccurs among sources as a common theme. This article pretty much synthesizes some sort of a narrative and pushes a vague grouping of events. Aintabli (talk) 00:23, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. The topic of the article seems too broad and without a well-defined scope. It's a collection of various, many of them unrelated, wars waged by various muslim rulers all over the Mediterranean throughout the centuries. Modern scholarship doesn't really treat all these events in a unified manner. @Cplakidas explained it more thoroughly in the talkpage discussion "Article scope is utter WP:OR". Another issue that was pointed out by an editor is the fact that the content might potentially be one-sided, as the article was translated from the Arab wikipedia and uses mostly Arab-language, and many of poor quality, sources. Piccco (talk) 11:07, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I tagged the article for all the reasons mentioned in the talk page, but there definitely are more problems in terms of source adequateness and verifiability, as well as balance of viewpoints presented. To be clear, the topic, if carefully redefined, has merit. E.g. something on the 'Early Muslim naval campaigns in the Mediterranean', if we consider the early Muslim world as fairly homogeneous during the first centuries of its existence, or the Muslim-Christian naval wars along the lines of Ekkehard Eickhoff's Seekrieg und Seepolitik zwischen Islam und Abendland or the multifaceted Muslim experience of the Mediterranean as in Picard's La Mer des Califes, but it cannot be a catch-all for cherry-picked Muslim naval activity that happened between Muhammad and the Ottomans; it should also not be one-sided, taking only the perspective of the Muslims, or treat only the 'conquests' in detail and gloss over the losses in quick order. Furthermore, much if not all of the topic is actually covered in other articles such as Early Caliphate navy (which also has its problems, but at least has a more clearly defined scope) or Fatimid navy. A pity for the immense translation effort that went into it, but IMO this is a case of WP:STARTOVER. Constantine ✍ 15:38, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep this is an informative and well sourced article documenting an established and recognised occurrence in history. I don't see how it's original research to group together events that historians themselves typically group together. Flyingfishee (talk) 17:03, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The events are factual, but the choice of scope is very much WP:OR as being both too broad geographically and chronologically and too narrow in examining the Muslim conquests only, even if they are centuries apart, but not their context, not the intervening events, etc. It is as WP:OR and unbalanced as having an article on 'Indian victories' with events from remote antiquity to modern times. No historian adopts such a categorization or groups these events together in this uncritical fashion. Constantine ✍ 18:52, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Santa Monica Daily Press seems like a press release? The LA Times is actually a localized sub paper, not sure if that or the local radio is considered since Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) specifies that articles "solely from local media (e.g., the weekly newspaper for a small town), or media of limited interest and circulation (e.g., a newsletter exclusively for people with a very unusual job), is not an indication of notability". Also, the article is about an event but the same guideline says "an organization is not notable merely because a notable person or event was associated with it". Happy to withdraw this if I'm misreading though. jwtmsqeh (talk) 20:25, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Support As per the wiki notability principle I don't think this article fulfil the minimal criteria prior to Subject Consideration possible reason fair enough भारतसरकार-विभाग (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 17:28, 4 September 2024 (UTC) (sock strike LizRead!Talk!07:04, 14 September 2024 (UTC))[reply]
