  • delete / merge - There is a much better written page for Progressive Youth Association, which I take to be the same organisation given that one of the the best links given by Soman is to the same organisation magazine for both. There seems to be the perennial problem of that source not being independent, but it seems likely that Soman or another editor might be able to fix that if they do their best to search out independent news sources in Turkish which would be more difficult for us non-Turkish speakers. With an organisation of this age I have to believe that they exist, and as Soman says, the criteria is that sources exist, not that they are cited currently in an article. I see no point keeping this clearly inferior article though, when a better one on the same topic exists.

  • Delete and do not merge. I think Soman is conflating two different groups. From my understanding of the equivalent articles on the Turkish Wikipedia (thank you, Google Translate), the All Progressive Youth Association claims the legacy of the Progressive Youth Association, but they aren't the same group because the Progressive Youth Association was banned in the 1970s and the All Progressive Youth Association was founded in the 2000s. It's worth noting that the notability of the modern group is questioned on the Turkish Wikipedia as well. The only defence offered so far is of the original group, not the subject of the article in question. Yue🌙 21:38, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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

Does not appear to have gained notability since previous deletion. — Moriwen (talk) 17:33, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the page merits retention due to several key factors demonstrating Ruiz's significance and notability.
Comparable Wikipedia Entries: Many individuals who have held comparable or similar positions as Chief of Staff, including Allie Bones and Jack LaSota, maintain active Wikipedia pages.
Both of these individuals have pages with far less detail regarding their accomplishments or their impact on public policy. This sets a clear precedent for retaining the page for Ruiz, who has had an equally, if not more, significant role in Arizona's political landscape.
Historical and Cultural Significance: Daniel Ruiz II holds the distinction of being the first Latino to serve as Chief of Staff to an Arizona Governor. This alone represents a noteworthy milestone in Arizona’s political history, reflecting the increasing diversity in state leadership roles and making Ruiz a pioneering figure in the Latino community. His tenure in this high-profile position is emblematic of broader societal changes and deserves recognition for its historic value.
Impact and Influence: As noted on the page and in news sources, during his tenure, Ruiz oversaw critical initiatives under Governor Doug Ducey’s administration, playing a central role in shaping policy decisions and managing key aspects of state governance. His influence extended beyond the day-to-day operations of the Governor's office, as Chief of Staff is a role vital to executing state policy and managing crisis responses. His leadership, particularly in a state as politically dynamic as Arizona, underscores the importance of documenting his contributions.
Broader Media Recognition: As noted in the specific citations from reliable sources provided, Daniel Ruiz II has been the subject of media coverage related to his role in shaping Arizona's policies. His involvement in major state initiatives, including economic development and crisis management, has brought him into the public eye.
Daniel Ruiz II is a notable figure both historically and politically. His role as the first Latino Chief of Staff in Arizona and his comparability with other individuals in similar roles who have retained Wikipedia pages underscore his notability. I respectfully request that his page be maintained and preserved as an important documentation of Arizona’s political history. ArizonaArt (talk) 17:59, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The events that are described in this person's bio: FEI North American Continental Championships in 2014, 2015 and 2017,silver medal during the Championships in 2017 and won all U25 classes --are not the highest level of international competition and many individuals could have listings here.

  • Which of these wins is considered "a significant honor"? None of these are at international level." + "Maybe this competitor will become an international level performer but is not currently." is both incorrect. The FEI North American Championships is a significant international championship in equestrian sport and being on the podium is a high recognition as young talent in dressage. Also the U25 division this athlete competed, is an international recognized class and winning in Wellington is a significant prestige in equestrian sport.

There are no longer any active coal-fired power stations in the UK - good news for the environment, but that means this list is no longer required. DimensionalFusion (talk · she/her) 23:18, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What you suggest already exists. See List of power stations in England, for example. Sort the table by "Type" and every coal fire station that operated in England is listed together with the years that it was operations.

“ He is best known for being friends with Collette Howe, who is famous for knowing Wagner off the X Factor” is a pretty unusual claim of notability, but that’s apparently his most important claim to fame.

Redirect to Miss Earth 2022. Subject fails WP:GNG and is only known for the Miss Earth 2022 pageant so WP:BLP1E would apply. I did WP:BEFORE on Google, Archive.org, and Newspapers.com but wasn't able to find anything new of substance that wasn't mentioned in the previous AfD. There were a handful of new articles from 2023 but they were just passing mentions that she was in Miss Earth 2022. There are some other sources but I didn't think they were reliable and were mostly the same material from her Miss Earth 2022 appearance. Last AfD ended in a redirect and I think that's appropriate here as well. Dr vulpes (Talk) 19:15, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined PROD. Fails WP:NSPORTSEVENT. One of the record 121 (so far) losses, nothing about the record-breaking loss itself has lasting notability. The game itself was routine and WP:ROTM. Many comments such as "represented a crucial point" in the rivalry and the announcer calls are WP:FANCRUFT.

  • Strong Keep, what we have here is one of the most historical baseball games of the 21st century, the breaking of a record only surpassed by the 1899 Cleveland Spiders (you should have seen them play!). When this game went into the record books it literally went into the record books. The 2024 White Sox season is historic for, yes, its 121 losses. This was the 121st, and that's what makes it notable and, despite the contents of two essays while actually meeting the only policy mentioned in the nom ("A game that is widely considered by independent reliable sources to be notable, outside routine coverage of each game, especially if the game received front page coverage outside of the local areas involved"), well deserving of a stand-alone article.. Randy Kryn (talk) 14:23, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    one of the most historical baseball games of the 21st century Hardly. This isn't going to be analyzed in the future like, say, Armando Galarraga's near-perfect game. It was one loss out of 121 (or 122). History never analyzed the 1962 Mets' record breaking loss (whatever number that was), just the 1962 New York Mets season as a whole, as they will with the 2024 White Sox. – Muboshgu (talk) 14:39, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Precisely, so how are we supposed to know one way or the other when this event hasn't even had the requisite time to accumulate such coverage? That's why the "wait" !votes presented by myself and Esolo5002 seem the most sensible. What's the big rush? Any assertion of notability or lack thereof is mere speculation at this point.

  • Strong keep A historic loss that officially clinched the White Sox as the worst team in MLB history. In addition, the Tigers also ended their ten year playoff drought with this win following a historic resurgence not seen since the 1973 Mets, so between the two events, there is plenty of coverage. This game will be talked about for a long time. 69.118.230.235 (talk) 14:28, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. Just because a record is set doesn't make the game noteworthy. The game itself is a nothingburger, and the bulk of the article is cruft. The "Aftermath" section, mere days after the event, is ridiculous, and includes an entire passage about the Tigers clinching a playoff berth, with zero mention of the White Sox at all. The event can be summarized in a single paragraph at 2024 Chicago White Sox season. Echoedmyron (talk) 14:30, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The game itself is not notable... the article spends as much time talking about the Tigers clinching a playoff spot as it does the White Sox setting a record. There was no article on the Cleveland Spiders setting the previous record. Nothing about the game was "historical". The White Sox set a season record for losses, not a game record.. making the season itself notable for that and the 2024 Chicago White Sox season article is the place for information about this record.

  • Delete (oppose merge/redirect) per WP:NOPAGE. A game receiving a bit more coverage than a normal late-season baseball game does not mean it needs its own article. This game can be summarized in a few sentences at 2024 Chicago White Sox season. I oppose a redirect due to this particular title being an unlikely search term. The fact that this game also ended the Tigers’ nine-year postseason drought is not relevant. There have been postseason droughts of significantly longer duration across the four major American sports, and those clinching games do not have articles, or receive any WP:LASTING coverage (likewise the specific game in which the 1962 Mets set the record did not receive lasting coverage).

  • Strong delete: records are broken every single year but we don't have articles for every game in which one happens to be broken. It would be ridiculous to have an article for Aaron Judge's 62nd home run, or Oakland Athletics' 20th consecutive win; those records are the result of season-long play and one particular game out of 162 isn't somehow notable because the record was broken on that night.

  • Note, even though the number of editors asking for deletion grows by the hour, the article meets GNG and WP:NSPORTSEVENT, and now all that can be done is wait for a few weeks to see if the game is still notable and discussed. As an update, the White Sox won their last two games to finish at 41-121, so the 121st game is the record holder for maybe the next 62 years (unless the Sox beat it in 2025). Another notability of the game is that the Sox lost this 121st in their 160th game of the season, the number of games played by the 1962 New York Mets, who lost 120, thus setting the modern day single-season loss record in the same amount of games played by the former record-holding team. Randy Kryn (talk) 22:52, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    You stand in the minority in saying that it meets notability, as the majority have detailed why this ROTM loss does not meet GNG or NSPORTSEVENT. That the White Sox won their last two games has no bearing on this discussion one way or the other. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:56, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That it was the last loss of the record-breaking season should count in favor of keeping the page. It's early yet, so awhile to go for other editors to catch onto its notability and to read WP:NSPORTSEVENT to ascertain if this game meets its exception standards. Randy Kryn (talk) 23:00, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    This game has no meaning without the other 120 losses that preceded it. That's why it's not notable. Y2Kcrazyjoker4 (talk • contributions) 01:38, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    If the White Sox had lost a 122nd, it would have had no bearing on this AfD. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:51, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lean wait. The long-term notability of this "record" is suspect. But in the near term, there has been lots of coverage. Per WP:RAPID, let's wait until this story is a little less fresh. Then we can really assess whether there is secondary sources to support this article. That being said, I'm not entirely oppossed to a merge to 2024 Chicago White Sox season, that at least preserves the history of this page. Esolo5002 (talk) 02:57, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Absolutely agree with a redirect and merge, even if it turns out that it's not worthy of keeping the page history is nice to have and redirects are harmless! Especially if there's more commentary on this next year and future years. I created a redirect of the Double doink football play never expecting it to become anything but when another double doink happened it was suddenly notable enough to expand to an article! Though the article didn't use my capitalization, someone started a better one with Doink not doink. Gatemansgc (TɅ̊LK) 04:38, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wait: This event occurred a mere three days ago so it's impossible to determine whether there will be enough secondary coverage, because right now there is none; it's all essentially primary sources. As per WP:PRIMARY:

    For Wikipedia's purposes, breaking news stories are also considered to be primary sources.

    This AfD is best being relisted a few times, so we can wait and see if there's WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE over the next few weeks (which the event hasn't even had a chance to accumulate yet), and make a better judgment call then. Left guide (talk) 07:16, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I could not disagree more. In the unlikely event SIGCOV specifically related to this game comes out in the next several weeks, then the article can be refunded. Historically, SIGCOV for single games either comes out almost immediately or not at all. Frank Anchor 10:59, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The events in the game are not notable at all.. only the season total is notable. Spanneraol (talk) 01:00, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There was nothing remotely remarkable about this game itself. It wasn't a dramatic nailbiter. It wasn't the height of competitive baseball. It was preceded by 120 other losses. THAT is the only reason anyone is talking about it. All content about this belongs in the season article, full stop. Y2Kcrazyjoker4 (talk • contributions) 04:19, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Does not meet WP:NORG: the article is entirely a list of acquisitions and funding rounds, referenced to trivial coverage ("inclusion in lists of similar organizations" and "of the expansions, acquisitions, mergers, sale, or closure of the business"). No significant coverage. Dan • ✉ 22:13, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I totally agree about Bloomberg, as it is just a directory. Loewstisch (talk) 08:21, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • As to the other references you mentioned - the Techcrunch articles are regurgitated PR on funding rounds with no "Independent Content" as required by ORGIND. The WSJ articles - one has a quote from a company exec, no in-depth information about the company as required by CORPDEPTH, the other is another rehash of a funding announcement, fails ORGIND. None meet GNG/WP:NCORP criteria for establishing notability.
  • Keep as the company is well-covered in specific business and security literature (per my additional WP before search), such as books on DevOps, Kubernetes, containerized applications, and cloud security. The page and its sources are also about software. Some security-industry guidebooks also heavily analyze various Aqua software tools, including Trivy and Kube-hunter. --美しい歌 (talk) 10:01, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Your edit simply added three book titles to a new section, and did not connect these references to the prose or explain their relevance. Of the three, Rice (2020) is partially written by company representatives and is not a reliable source: "this work is part of a collaboration between O'Reilly and Aqua Security" (p. ii), Binnie & McCune (2021) is unavailable on Google Books so I can't confirm a reference to the article subject, and Aversa (2023) simply makes passing references for how to use Aqua Security products, but does not demonstrate any notability whatsoever. Dan • ✉ 12:42, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I was not solely referring to those books, as there are many more. I agree that Rice (2020) is not an independent source. However, Cloud Native Security devotes a significant portion to the software, while Aversa's book covers the software side of Aqua Security in depth, including descriptions of various software structures, acquisitions, and principles. 美しい歌 (talk) 15:22, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete because the majority of coverage is comprised of trivial mentions. If it were kept, it would require a sharp reduction in content because it reads as WP:ADS - it is largely self-promo content. However, the lack of specific coverage and the inclusion in "who-to-watch" lists and whatnot does not comprise notability. CapnPhantasm (talk) 15:18, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Can you give an example? The only non-trivial reference in the article appears to be that of the The New Stack article; the rest of the references are completely trivial funding drivel. A Google News search likewise finds no relevant reliable sources. Dan • ✉ 00:30, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete/move to draft space, the article was almost certainly created by the company itself and is almost entirely based on poor quality sources. I've removed the most egregious claims/sources and what remains is "a list of acquisitions and funding rounds" as stated by the nominator. While a stub article could probably be created from reliable sources, it does not seem fair to allow a "$1 billion dollar" company's marketing department to create work for volunteers.

Binnie and McCune (2021) does briefly mention Aqua in the context of how to use some software, but there is insufficient content about the software for it to contribute to the notability of even the software.

  • Keep I see the sources in Hebrew, some books, and at least Calcalistech have required deep coverage with analysis, brief overivew, etc that allows for anyone to "to write more than a very brief, incomplete stub about the organization" - as WP:ORGDEPTH says --Jiaoriballisse (talk) 10:53, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Calcalistech is similar to Techcrunch. It almost the same format and its junk. scope_creepTalk 09:02, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Lets have a look at the first block of references:
Ref 1 [7] Inteview with founder. Fails WP:ORGIND.
Ref 2 [8] Paid for profile.
Ref 3 [9] Paid for profile
Ref 4 [10] An X of Y article. This is a paid-for profile and is not independent. Fails WP:SIRS.
Ref 5 [11] Funding news. Fails WP:CORPTRIV
Ref 6 [12] Funding news. Fails WP:CORPTRIV
Ref 7 [13] This is PR profile with interview material. It fails WP:SIRS. Its not independent.
Ref 8 [14] Another list of unicorns. A profile. Fails WP:SIRS
Ref 9 [15] This is the passing mention. Context is wrong. Fails WP:SIRS.
Ref 10 [16] Passing mention. Context is wrong. Fails WP:SIRS.
Ref 11 [17] This details Aquas own security report. Its a WP:SPS source.
Ref 12 [18] Discusses the report above.

So in the first 12 reference not a single reference passed either WP:SIRS, WP:ORGIND, WP:CORPTRIV. All the information like most startups comes from Aqua itelf. It is a complete failure of WP:NCORP. Its another UPE advertisement. scope_creepTalk 09:02, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep according to WP:SUBSTANTIAL, partly WP:PRODUCT and WP:CORPDEPTH. I found this discussion very interesting and would like to clarify and help the "pro-life aka keep" voters with a clear example of substantial media coverage. Let's start with WP:PRODUCT. I applied the WP Product while reviewing the book Cloud Native Security, which was mentioned twice in this discussion. I found that Aqua Security’s product, kube-hunter, received significant and in-depth coverage in the book. It wasn't mentioned briefly in any way, but it was thoroughly examined as one of the key tools for auditing and securing Kubernetes environments. The coverage overpassed the book passage requirement (WP Substantial) for the coverage be significant and not trivial. According to Wikipedia's notability guidelines, when a company is known for a series of products, it's best to cover both the company and its products in one consolidated article. Aqua Security's tools, such as kube-hunter and kube-bench, are crucial to its operations and have been recognized by independent, reliable sources, making them notable enough to be included in the same article as the company. Given the deep coverage at least in a source like Cloud Native Security, the page may be notable. For these reasons, I think the article should be restructured to avoid redundant and promotional corporate achievements and mention some of its software. Second, let's come back to WP:SUBSTANTIAL and its second bullet point: A scholarly article, a book passage, or ongoing media coverage focusing on a product or organization. I spent some time and also reviewed the coverage of Aqua Security in multiple TechCrunch articles, which provide often trivial but often substantial and ongoing media attention that clearly meets Wikipedia’s notability requirements for an organization. For example, Aqua Security has been the highlighted for its large market presence and role in the industry with small but overall good analyses and feedback made by the authors of the Techcrunch. I mean, there were not only mentions of funding rounds, but much more. For example, the 2021 article discusses Aqua’s transition from a product-based company to a platform that secures the entire cloud-native environment, with notable achievements in container and Kubernetes security. Similarly, earlier articles from 2019 also focus on Aqua's innovative approach to container security, explaining its role in securing Fortune 500 customers' critical cloud environments. Third point I've read The Marker media - one of the top in Israel and not tech-only. The article provides detailed analysis of Aqua Security’s unique position in the cloud-native security market, focusing on its specialized approach to securing applications during runtime, which makes it different from competitors like Wiz and Orca. The reporter highlights how Aqua Security’s agent-based solution provides deeper protection than agentless systems. This deep coverage in the article also shows that Aqua’s technology is recognized as being more comprehensive but with a more complex integration process. Additionally, The Marker analyzes the growing overlapping among key players of the cybersecurity industry, where Aqua Security is moving towards offering broader, more integrated solutions by acquiring startups like Argon. The article also analyzes how Aqua Security acts in a competitive Israel market. The media is positioning Aqua as a leader in cloud-native security while providing detailed not trivial and interesting comparisons with new competitors such as Apwind, Sweet Security, and others. So we see here no routine or promotion, but clear deep "homemade" (in-house) significant coverage. Here is the article: [19]. My last point. There is another substantial coverage of Aqua Security in The Marker, which explores how the company strategically acquires competitors to become a bigger player, bite a bigger market share and reduce competition. The article also hints that such activities are not very good and may harm the thriving and competitive ecosystem of security startups, and and so on.

    1. WP:PRODUCT does not apply here as this article is about the company. See the note above by HighKing: We require in-depth information about the *company*.
    2. None of the articles in TechCrunch satisfy WP:SUBSTANTIAL as you claim. Please compare to WP:ORGTRIV's example: standard notices, brief announcements, and routine coverage, such as: … of a capital transaction, such as raised capital, … All three of the articles are entirely about receiving investment funding:
      • "Aqua Security raises $135M at a $1B valuation for its cloud native security platform"
      • "Container security startup Aqua lands $62M Series C"
      • "Cloud-native cybersecurity startup Aqua Security raises $60M and remains a unicorn"
    3. The first article you cite in The Marker is also about funding, at least according to Google Translate's rendering of the headline: Hebrew: אקווה סקיוריטי גייסה 60 מיליון דולר בשווי של לפני שלוש שנים, lit. 'Aqua Security raised $60 million in value three years ago'
    4. The second article in The Marker fails a different WP:ORGTRIV example of trivial coverage: … of the expansions, acquisitions, mergers, sale, or closure of the business, … Hebrew: לפני חצי שנה ארגון השיקה מוצר – כעת היא נמכרת ליוניקורן הסייבר אקווה בעשרות מיליוני דולרים, lit. 'Six months ago an organization launched a product - now it is sold to the cyber unicorn Aqua for tens of millions of dollars'

    I need to disagree with you and choose the side of the other user who expressed their views above and found those articles. I’ve read it in Hebrew and must admit it really meets the requirements for SIGCOV. I also believe it's important to look beyond the titles and brief summaries of these articles. It's true that many articles begin with catchy headlines about funding or acquisitions, but that's just standard practice for media. The real value lies in the depth of analysis within the text itself.
    For instance, The Marker articles do not simply report on Aqua Security’s funding; they provide detailed insight into Aqua’s strategic role in the cloud-native security market and how its technology sets it apart from competitors. One article goes into a thorough discussion of Aqua's unique approach to securing applications during runtime, contrasting it with agentless solutions like those from Wiz and Orca. This isn't just routine coverage—it’s an exploration of the technological depth and market position that Aqua has carved out. The piece also discusses the challenges and advantages of Aqua’s agent-based solution, offering a more complex and comprehensive take than simple mentions of funding rounds.
    As for TechCrunch, it’s a tricky question but the rule about “ongoing media coverage focusing on a product or organization” should be used here. I will add additional in a separete comment. ג'ימיהחיה (talk) 11:31, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. NCORP has specific guidance on assessing independence and SIGCOV (particularly ORGTRIV), and the sources provided here do not meet these parameters. Brief coverage of product announcements, funding rounds, acquisitions, etc. is not SIGCOV, content purely derived from what the company says about itself is not independent, and coverage of a product is not inherited by the company. JoelleJay (talk) 22:44, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
New significant sources added I was inspired by the latest updated within the discussion and found out that aside from this newly found reliable significant coverage source by the Marker [21] there are some better sources and ground for raising the page’s notability.
Here is another significant piece of coverage on the topic: https://www.ice.co.il/finance/news/article/836868. The Ice.co.il sou provides substantial coverage of Aqua Security by analyzing the impact of its acquisition of Argon. The article share the details of the Argon’s technology and explains how it protects the software supply chain from "code manipulation and malicious insertions." It also make an overview of the context and notes the role in the cybersecurity landscape for Aqua Security and explain the readers how this purchase heps the organizatin to become "the only provider capable of offering full protection for development processes" in cloud environments. Furthermore, it highlights industry challenges, such as increasing cyber threats, and references recent high-profile breaches like SolarWinds.
Another reliable source from The Marker:
https://www.themarker.com/technation/2021-03-10/ty-article/.premium/0000017f-e5eb-d62c-a1ff-fdfbb0b00000
I have an access to it and see that the article provides significant coverage of Aqua Security, stopping in detail at key developments such as its latest funding round, business growth, who invested and why invested (it shed some light that CEO Davidoff worked with one of the investors in the previous round on other projects) and the history of the company. It also explains how the company move from the container security niche to the broader solutions on the global scale.
I have also rewritten the page and made it equally about the software and the company. That is why the company has a large amount of notable software that is the subject of significant reviews/guides in the industry books during the last 3-5 years.
Here are some books I researched thanks to WP BEFORE and share how they contribute to the software/company's notability:
  1. In the book Mastering Cloud Native by Aditya Pratap Bhuyan, Aqua Security receives significant coverage, particularly highlighting its Aqua Platform, which offers comprehensive end-to-end security for cloud-native environments. The book has explanations of key features such as image scanning, runtime protection, and compliance enforcement, demonstrating software’s major role in securing containerized applications and more.
  2. In Security for Containers and Kubernetes by Luigi Aversa, Aqua Security's open-source tool Trivy receives significant, in-depth coverage across several chapters, demonstrating its importance in container security. The book highlights Trivy's functionalities like vulnerability detection, SBOM support, and many other boring technical but not passing-mention stuff. Given the thorough, independent analysis in this book, Aqua Security's software meets Wikipedia's notability requirements for significant coverage.
  3. In the book Kubernetes - A Complete DevOps Cookbook, an entire chapter is dedicated to a how-to guide on integrating Aqua Security's Trivy tool into CI/CD pipelines for container security. This section provides detailed, step-by-step instructions for using Trivy with platforms such as CircleCI and GitLab. The guide was written by authors independent of Aqua Security, which corresponds with substantial coverage under Wikipedia’s notability guidelines (namely this part:: an extensive how-to guide written by people wholly independent of the company or product (e.g. For Dummies).
So, to sum up, there have been found and added to the page at least 3 reliable sources with non-trivial and in-depth coverage of the company, while we also have a multiple books covering the software and the page now is a combination of the company and a product. ג'ימיהחיה (talk) 11:41, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Source review:
  • Dor, Ofir (2024-01-03). אקווה סקיוריטי גייסה 60 מיליון דולר בשווי של לפני שלוש שנים [Aqua Security raised $60 million in value three years ago]. The Marker (in Hebrew).
    This is standard WP:CORPTRIV of a corporate funding round.
  • Cohen, Nitzan (2021-02-12). אקווה סקיוריטי רוכשת חברה ישראלית שתגן על מפתחי תוכנה [Aqua Security acquires an Israeli company that will protect software developers]. Finance. ICE (in Hebrew).
    This is standard WP:CORPTRIV of a corporate acquisition. Your comment that it an overview of the context and notes the role in the cybersecurity landscape for Aqua Security and explain the readers how this purchase heps the organizatin describes the standard boilerplate corporate speak found in these types of articles, and is not actually a notable journalistic description of the company.
  • Zahrovich, Omri (2021-03-10). אקווה סקיוריטי הופכת לחד קרן: 'יש 'הייפ' בענף, אבל לנו יש ביצועים חזקים' [Aqua Security becomes a unicorn: 'There is 'hype' in the industry, but we have strong performance']. The Marker (in Hebrew).
    This is standard WP:CORPTRIV of inclusion in lists of similar organizations, particularly in "best of", "top 100", "fastest growing" or similar lists.
  • Bhuyan, Aditya Pratap (2024). Mastering Cloud Native: A Comprehensive Guide to Containers, DevOps, CI/CD, and Microservices. ISBN 979-833423401-7.

  • Aversa, Luigi (2023). Security for Containers and Kubernetes. Delhi: BPB Publications. ISBN 978-93-55518-439. OCLC 1382693746.
    I already noted above that this book simply makes passing references for how to use Aqua Security products. Further, Alpha3031 identified above that is published by BPB Publishing which is a predatory publisher.
  • Karslioglu, Murat (2020). Kubernetes - A Complete DevOps Cookbook: Build and Manage Your Applications, Orchestrate Containers, and Deploy Cloud-Native Services. Birmingham: Packt. ISBN 978-1-83882-804-2. OCLC 1190651785. OL 27083721W.
    The use of Trivy is explained in pp. 475–481; however, it is a gross exaggeration to claim that an entire chapter is dedicated to a how-to guide on integrating Aqua Security's Trivy tool as the containing chapter (chapter 9) makes no mention of it or of Aqua Security the company outside this six-page subsection. As noted by HighKing, we require in-depth information about the *company* which a brief explanation of how to deploy one of its products does not qualify for.
None of these above qualify as independent, reliable, secondary sources. Dan • ✉ 15:49, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Lots of canvanssing going on here. I had a look at the books as well. The Aditya Pratap Bhuyan book is self-published. Its a junk ref. The Luigi Aversa is essentially a manual and Aqua is mentioned, but its passing mention. Its more on how to implement Trivy and not specific to the company. The Marker is like Tech Crunch, as detailed at a previous Afd. There is nothing here in this company that makes it particular notable. scope_creepTalk 16:15, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Commenting and analyzing the reliable sources
  • This source from TheMarker [22] is not WP:CORPTRIV but a classic WP:SUBSTANTIAL and meet NCROP criteria. Here is my analysis:
According to Wikipedia's notability guidelines for organizations and companies, significant coverage must be:
  • Reliable: Published by trustworthy sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.
  • Secondary: Produced by sources independent of the subject.
  • Independent: Not affiliated with the subject; free from conflicts of interest.
  • In-depth: Goes beyond trivial mentions or routine announcements; provides substantial information and analysis.
Reliability of the Source: TheMarker is a well-respected Israeli business publication known for its credible journalism and in-depth reporting. The article is written by Ofir Dor, a journalist, indicating professional authorship. Conclusion: The source is reliable.
Independence and Secondary Nature: The article is independent of Aqua Security; there is no indication of it being sponsored content or a press release. It provides analysis and reporting separate from any company influence. Conclusion: The article is an independent, secondary source.
Depth of Coverage: the article talks/coverages on Market Position (Discusses Aqua's maintained valuation amidst industry challenges), Company Background (provides history since its founding in 2015, total investments, and key personnel); ::Industry Analysis (explores the competitiveness across the industry, mentioning specific competitors and how Aqua's approach differs. It analyzes industry trends, such as the convergence of cybersecurity solutions and the debate over agent-based versus agentless security tools); Technical Evaluation (discusses the technical aspects of Aqua's solutions. Includes perspectives on the effectiveness of their approach compared to competitors. The article addresses both the business and technical dimensions of Aqua Security, offering a broad overview “that extends well beyond brief mentions and routine announcements).
Avoidance of Trivial or Routine Coverage: not Routine, while it mentions the funding event, the article expands significantly on other aspects.
Conclusion. The coverage is significant and non-trivial because the focus is on analyzing the company's position, strategies, and industry impact rather than merely announcing routine stuff.
  • Second source for analysis [23]. I will be brief here. The article, instead of trivial routine mentioning of the purchase of Argon competitor, explores in-depth how the acquisition of the startup helps Aqua Security's position in cloud-native security “by enhancing their protection across the software development lifecycle, especially focusing on software supply chain security”. It also provides us with a discussion on Argon's agentless solutions and the integration into Aqua’s platform that may strengthen Aqua’s capability in securing apps "from code to runtime," which may be a good leverage among the competitors. The article further mentions the context of cyberattacks, referencing infamous incidents like the SolarWinds and Codecov attacks and discussing how Aqua’s integration of Argon’s technology will influence this. This industry-wide analysis adds significance and in-depth coverage that goes beyond a routine announcement of the acquisition.
  • Third source [24] the article goes beyond routine corporate announcements by…. analyzing the company's growth trajectory, financial details, and competitive positioning within the cloud-native security market. Additionally, it highlights Aqua Security's evolution, telling the readers how it progressed from a container-based security company to another industry: cloud-native security platforms. The coverage also has details about the company's revenue growth, clients, and how it fits among the global industry giants like CheckPoint and Palo Alto Networks. All that is filled with some kind of irony about the market hype around cloud-native security and the journalist kind of questions if it’s enough for Aqua, even along with tis good financial performance, to be distinguished from competitors and survive.
So, to sum up, this is pretty decent depth of coverage, providing financial specifics, industry comparisons, and market positioning. It definitely is reliable, secondary and deep enough. I also need to highlight what is the TheMarker media, as for many it may sound like some junk. So, TheMarker is a leading financial and business news outlet in Israel. It has a long-standing reputation for its thorough journalism and reliable reporting. Founded in 1999, it is part of the prestigious Haaretz group, one of Israel's oldest and most respected media organizations (founded in 1918). TheMarker is well-known for its investigative journalism, independence of view, deep and critical economic and business analysis. ג'ימיהחיה (talk) 11:19, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @ג'ימיהחיה. As I understand it "לפי הודעת אקווה" translates to "According to Aqua's announcement". Is this incorrect? Alpha3031 (t • c) 11:54, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the news includes also the company's announcement, which I disregarded and did not include in my analysis, as well as any comments from any parties—whether from the startups that were acquired or from industry competitors. ג'ימיהחיה (talk) 13:24, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is not including all the parts where it says "according to the company" and "the company claims" ("באקווה לפחות טוענים"), etc in the only parts that aren't about the funding round how you arrived at the conclusion there was no indication of any company influence? Because I'm not sure what parts you think are left once you get rid of that and the top three paragraphs, which are the fact that they raised money, how much they raised, and the fact that they announced they raised money. Alpha3031 (t • c) 14:28, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'll also add that the "definition" used above Independent: Not affiliated with the subject; free from conflicts of interest addresses only half of the definition, and probably the reason why some editors are struggling with wrapping their heads around what "Independent Source" means. See WP:ORGIND which not only comments on the "not affiliated" at a corporate level, but also addresses the *content" such that the article text must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. As Alpha3031 correctly says above, once you remove the obvious regurgitated company information, where is the *in-depth* original/independent opinion/analysis/fact checking/investigation/etc? There's nothing in any of those articles. There is no "Independent Content" - all of the information is regurgitated from company sources. HighKing++ 10:58, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - This article reads as if it was written by a corporate technical writer. It is free of any obvious marketing language, but is entirely written from the viewpoint of the company. Corporate notability is based on significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. This article describes what the company has done, but nothing in this article is about third-party sources have written about the company. This article does not speak for itself and does not state what independent reliable sources have said about the company. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:25, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. After reviewing the sources, they're all WP:ORGTRIV or WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS; there's insufficient WP:SIGCOV in WP:SIRS to pass WP:NCORP. To answer a few points made above, The Marker's coverage is classic ORGTRIV (valuations, capital investments, etc.), and The New Stack source, while substantial, includes a little note in small type at the bottom: "TNS owner Insight Partners is an investor in: Docker, Aqua Security", which would raise questions about The New Stack's independence as a source on this company.

Update: Europe of Sovereign Nations (party) is now a registered European political party. Additional third-party sources were added following the registration. Julius Schwarz (talk) 07:40, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Here is my analysis of the 3 new sources you added. They do not change my view. Per WP:SUSTAINED, we see that Wikipedia is a lagging indicator of notability. Articles saying what the AfD intends to do are not sufficient to write an article about a party that does not exist yet. The information is not irrelevant but a reader is poorly served in having to locate and read an article about a party that has not yet come into existence when this information would be better placed on the page about the group and the page about the AfD.
Source assessment table: prepared by User:Sirfurboy
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
Tagesschau - AfD will Europäische Partei gründen (AfD wants to found a European party) [25] Yes Tagesschau is a German national news programme/service hosted by a public service broadcaster. Independent and reliable. Yes No The article discusses their plans, and why they are in a hurry to do this - to access funding - but it confirms no such party exists. This information is current for the Alternative fur Deutschland page, but it cannot tell us about this party as an entity, because it doesn't exist yet. This does not significantly describe the party. It does not tell us what the party is. It cannot even tell us the party will definitely come into being. Wikipedia is a lagging indicator of notability and so an article about something that does not exist should not exist. There are existing articles where this information should be discussed. ✘ No
RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland - AfD plant Gründung von neuer europäischer Partei (AfD plans to establish new European party) [26] Yes RDN is the news network for Madsack Media Group which has political control but is independent from the AfD Yes No The same issue as above. The article is about plans, and the desire to access funding. It confirms that the party does not exist yet. ✘ No
ThePostOnline (NL) FVD sluit zich aan bij Europe of Sovereign Nations (FVD joins Europe of Sovereign Nations) [27] Yes TPO is a Dutch news website. Privately owned but independent. ? They aspire to be like Fox news or CNN and rely heavily on comment. I am not sure if they are considered reliable or not. No The article is about the FVD (Forum voor Democratie) joining the ESB. All we have is Forum voor Democratie (FVD) heeft zich, ondanks afwezigheid in het Europees Parlement, aangesloten bij de nieuwe rechtse politieke beweging Europe of Sovereign Nations. Deze beweging is opgericht door de Duitse partij Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), die eerder werd uitgesloten van de fractie Identiteit en Democratie. That is Forum for Democracy (FVD) has joined the new right-wing political movement Europe of Sovereign Nations, despite its absence in the European Parliament. This movement was founded by the German party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD), which was previously excluded from the Identity and Democracy group. That is not significant coverage from which an article can be written. ✘ No

Delete The more my research on the party progresses, the more I am convinced that it should be deleted. And it's obvious since the article is primarily based on primary sources and has a problem of original research as I have already pointed out with the relevant tag. Meanwhile, those in favour of keeping make no effort to substantiate the notability of the article on the basis of Wikipedia's policy. Probably because they can't. Pallikari ap' ta Sfakia 16:55, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It has already been pointed out that it is a separate entity from the correspondent EP group, with its own separate leadership and membership. It has already been pointed out that the party has been officially registered as party, and is therefore a legal entity on its own (and not just the idea of a project). It has already been pointed out that the existence of pages for EP groups and European parties bearing the same names and containing potentially overlapping information is a standard in the specific context of European politics. Deleting the page for merely procedural reasons would be a mistake to me.--Fm3dici97 (talk) 21:22, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. There are two different organizations: a European political party and a European parliamentary group. I see absolutely no point in deleting the party page. I see the problems that this page has, but even they are not a reason for deleting. It's like deleting an article about the European People's Party, merging it into the EPP group (or vice versa).  PLATEL  (talk) 10:25, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But there is not a political party as it hasn't yet been registered as a political party. Registration is pending. But even if we take the pre-registered association as something, there remain no reliable secondary sources covering this. If the party were registered, we might presume notability, but until that happens, it is entirely possible that registration would be withdrawn and it would never be notable. If there were reliable secondary sources significantly covering the party, then it would pass GNG. At this stage neither is true. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 10:34, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is no European political party at this point, as registration is pending, but there is a political alliance, as has already been pointed out several times. Sure, there may need to be further sources, but this shortcoming does not seem to warrant (in the eyes of almost all contributors here) the proposed merger. Julius Schwarz (talk) 10:39, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is no point...no one cares about the lack of sources. Pallikari ap' ta Sfakia 16:44, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Keep, see EPP/EPP Group, ECR Party/ECR Group. I'll grant the article needs improvement, but deletion is out of the question. – GlowstoneUnknown (Talk) 08:34, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: The fact that the party exists and that it is a separate legal entity from the group are not, by themselves, a valid argument to keep an article on Wikipedia. The question here is whether the party meets our notability guidelines for a standalone article, or whether the sourced material is better off being merged.

What sources do we have that discuss the party and provide us information from which an article about this part can be written? We need significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources, per WP:GNG. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 18:20, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I have struck my merge vote above. The registration of the party has succeeded. If it had failed, then this would never have been notable. Now it has succeeded I expect we are WP:TOOSOON in that we do not yet have any sources that meet GNG, but a merge is no longer appropriate as there is now a party which differs from the group. It is too soon, and there isn't sourcing, but a presumption of notabilty would now fall in favour of sources being forthcoming in the future. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 08:35, 2 October 2024‎ (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. No sources – no article! I'm happy to change my mind if someone shows significant coverage in independent, reliable sources, which issue has gotten remarkably little attention during this AfD. From a quick skim of the sources in the article, I can only see one (the Euronews one) that actually meets the criteria. Some of the English-language ones also seem to be conflating party and parliamentary group. -- Maddy from Celeste (WAVEDASH) 18:38, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to be a non-notable dish. Sources are all recipes and blogs. The sprouted garden source is about the sweet potato, not the pie. The book is just a single sentence+recipe. The U Hawaii is a recipe. Google search only found recipes (and very few of those). Recipes for Haupia pie -- some referring to it as a Hawaiian classic, which is at least a claim to notability and may be a possible place to move instead of delete -- came up more often, but that was usually pies of just haupia or haupia with chocolate or other flavors. I see this was converted to a redirect to Sweet potato pie once, but reverted. I think it could possibly be redirected to Haupia. Valereee (talk) 12:14, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per WP:GNG and WP:HEY. Mahalo to LittleT889 for improving the article with better sources, as it certainly needed it. A quick search in Newspapers.com yielded this 1998 Honolulu Advertiser article with recipe, "Sweet potato pie with that unique Island touch" which says, "Several readers have written and called asking for a recipe for sweet potato haupia pie made with Okinawan or purple sweet potatoes. This is a delicious pie available at Nori's in Hilo and Yama's Fish Market in Honolulu. But neither would share their recipes.". It's a contemporary Hawaiian-Okinawan classic that has been trendy over the last ~25 years, as evidenced by its mention, year after year, in Frommer's travel guide; chefs and dessert makers feel compelled to put their own spin on it with subtle variations; a recipe was included in Hawaii's Best Local Desserts (reprinted here); and the article as it stands now cites many other articles and recipes.

  • delete - Yes, both the Java, and the .NET platform are similar in many ways; likely they are two very common plaforms where Software development is done. In that respect, the 'recipes' of how certain things are done are very similar; tools may be slightly different. If you look at it at the level of Data Structures (or Abstract Data Tyes), there way to implement Lists, Queues or Sets is similar. I would nevertheless think that doing an in-depth comparison (which needs to be kept up to date, too) shouldn't be the focus of Wikipedia. It will not serve the average reader of wikipedia, and it will be of a very limited use to more tech-savy editors (as they have other sources for this kind of information).

Yet another installment of a WP:WALLEDGARDEN on the Jhala family created by a now-blocked sockmaster. The core sources for these articles are books of purported genealogy published by Jhala family descendants. This article takes a legendary genealogy and launders the sources to present it as history:

Meanwhile, the independent/reliable sources do not present any of this legendary material as fact or otherwise.

  • Bhardwaj's Hemu gives a brief mention to Ajja Jhala (p. 49 and the same anecdote repeated on p. 87).
  • Hooja's A History of Rajasthan gives a single mention to Ajja Jhala.

In short, what WP:SIGCOV we have on the Ajja Jhala includes legend repeated by WP:SPS and WP:COI sources, making it a failure on WP:V. The independent coverage, such as it is, does not establish facts about this figure as presented in the article and is not sufficient SIGCOV to pass WP:GNG.

Reconsider deletion. An article from The Varsitarian provides significant coverage of Cruz's role in forming OperaJuan, an emerging youth opera and musical theater group, demonstrating leadership in his field. Cruz is quoted discussing the group's mission, showing he's considered an authority figure. The coverage provides substantive, independent information that establishes Cruz's notability in the field of Philippine music. I have expanded the article with this information.

Comment. Notability has nothing to do with being an "active performer". You have to do be unusual to be notable, not WP:MILL. You need to stand out so that the media gives you WP:SIGCOV. For example, winning a Tony Award. Also, plenty of Philippine performers get a lot of WP:SIGCOV.

We can retain the article. Google recognizes the legitimacy of the artist. Ixo490 (talk) 06:15, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I believe there are compelling reasons to keep the article. As an emerging artist in the Philippine music and theater scene, his role in forming OperaJuan demonstrates leadership and initiative, highlighting his contributions to the local arts community. While he may not have extensive coverage yet, Wikipedia should be open to documenting rising talents, especially those making innovative strides in their fields. The presence of the artist's tracks on major streaming platforms and evidence of active performances suggest a legitimate, ongoing career in the arts, providing a solid foundation for the article that can be expanded as the artist's career progresses. Furthermore, as a young artist working in opera and musical theater in the Philippines, the artist may represent an important voice in the country's evolving performing arts scene, making it valuable to document his work for those researching contemporary Philippine culture and music. Retaining the article allows for future growth; it's not uncommon for articles on emerging artists to start small and develop over time. Additionally, including articles on up-and-coming artists from various countries enriches Wikipedia's content diversity, offering a more comprehensive view of global arts and culture. Given these points, I suggest keeping the article with appropriate sourcing and a neutral tone while monitoring for additional notable achievements or coverage that can further establish the artist's relevance.

  • To all of the new editors to Wikipedia, first "Welcome!" Secondly, Wikipedia determines whether or not an article should be Kept or Deleted not based on a vote count but based on whether or not notability can be established by reliable, independent secondary sources. They can't be "passing mentions" but provide SIGCOV (significant coverage). So, your pleas to save this article or accusations against other editors or Wikipedia won't have much impact but if you could find additional sources from mainstream new sources (not blogs or social media) could help establish notability and influence whether or not this article is Kept or not. Wikipedia is governed not by editors' opinions but by policies and guidelines and this is how we determine what articles should be Kept and which ones should be Deleted. Liz Read!

      The article provides 239 words of coverage about the subject. The article notes: "The Tall Tales of Jim Bridger is set to make its series premiere on Thursday night on INSP, with the series showing tales from the Western frontier which were inspired by the adventures of the famed mountain man Jim Bridger. As Bridger guides a new wave of Americans heading west, he must help them survive the same life-and-death situations that made him a legend. The series started with the debut episode titled "The Prizefighter," and it tells the story of when Bridger's second-in-command begins enforcing camp discipline with brutal violence."

    2. Leydon, Joe (2024-01-11). "C&I Q&A: Rib Hillis of The Tall Tales of Jim Bridger". Cowboys & Indians. Archived from the original on 2024-09-24. Retrieved 2024-09-24.

      The article provides 142 words of non-interview coverage about the subject. The article notes: "It’s a long way from the fashion capitals of Europe to the frontiers of Montana, but Rib Hillis has made the transition smoothly and authoritatively to play the title role in The Tall Tales of Jim Bridger, the new series premiering Thursday on INSP. ... With Tall Tales of Jim Bridger, the multitalented New York native gets his big chance to display his versatility by persuasively portraying the legendary 19th-century mountain man and frontiersman who explored the entire distant West and survived countless hair-raising adventures, and became an invaluable guide for settlers in search of new homes and lives for themselves. Of course, as the title indicates, the real Jim Bridger was known to, shall we say, exaggerate his resume. The series acknowledges his status as a not-always-reliable narrator, but shrewdly invokes dramatic license now and then to amp the entertainment value."

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow The Tall Tales of Jim Bridger to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

@Cunard: As a publisher, post-2019 Sports Illustrated (SI) is questionable for various reasons.

Fails notability, the whole article is about trying to sell his achievements as something important. never won a major senior medal. never even participated in a major event. his medal (if true) is just in youth level. Sports2021 (talk) 01:29, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep In the sport of karate, unlike many other sports, there is no significant distinction between youth and adult competitions in terms of prestige and recognition. In fact, both youth and adult categories are considered to be on the same level, with no difference in the value and importance of their achievements. This is a point that is often not fully understood by those who lack expertise in karate. Many non-specialists and even some media outlets may assume that youth competitions are less significant than adult ones, whereas in reality, youth competitions in karate are held with the same level of difficulty and professionalism, and the medals earned in both categories hold equal prestige and value. This is especially true in major continental tournaments like the Asian Championships, which are organized under the authority of the World Karate Federation (WKF). The medals and achievements in these tournaments are recognized and recorded globally as significant accomplishments. These competitions are of the same caliber as adult events, and in many cases, athletes who win medals in the youth category quickly go on to achieve success on the international adult stage as well. This misunderstanding about the differences between age categories often leads to the undervaluation of athletes' achievements. However, from the perspective of experts and those deeply familiar with the structure of karate, it is clear that such successes, even in the youth categories, are by no means of lesser value compared to adult categories. This article, much like the article on Zohreh Barzegar, which highlights similar achievements in karate, should not be deleted. The value and significance of these accomplishments are comparable to those of other professional athletes whose articles remain on Wikipedia, and removing this article due to a lack of understanding of the sport’s structure would result in disregarding a legitimate and recognized achievement.InfoExplorer2023 (talk) 20:10, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lekkha Moun (talk) 16:09, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep In defense of keeping the article, several key points need to be considered. Firstly, karate is a martial art with its own complexities, which may not be easily understood by everyone. Unlike more popular sports like football, karate requires specialized knowledge and experience to properly assess an athlete's achievements. In this case, the article may seem brief, but that doesn’t mean it's not valuable; rather, it's currently a stub article. According to Wikipedia's stub guidelines, this article has the potential to be expanded over time by editors who are knowledgeable in karate.Regarding notability, it's important to reference WP:ATHLETE. According to this guideline, sporting achievements at the international level are inherently notable and warrant the creation of a standalone article. Winning a medal at the 2021 Asian Championship is just one example of this athlete’s success, and it is significant enough to demonstrate their notability. WP:ATHLETE explicitly mentions that success in reputable international competitions is a valid criterion for notability. Additionally, from the perspective of WP:GNG (General Notability Guideline), the article includes reliable and credible sources that provide sufficient coverage to verify the athlete’s notability. The sources cited in the article go beyond just the medal at the Asian Championship and provide a broader context of the athlete’s career and accomplishments, which can be expanded upon as the article grows. Lastly, the argument about WP:TOOSOON should not be used as a reason for deletion. This athlete is already recognized on an international level, and deleting the article due to perceived premature coverage would only hinder the development of more information about them. Wikipedia is a platform meant to collect and expand knowledge, and this article not only meets the notability guidelines but also represents an opportunity for further improvement by editors with expertise in karate. Given these points, deleting the article would not only be a mistake but would also contradict Wikipedia’s own policies. The article adheres to the notability guidelines and should remain so that it can be further developed, allowing the athlete’s achievements to be fully documented over time.BookLover070 (talk) 18:08, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep The issue of deleting certain sports articles, particularly regarding karate, requires careful and in-depth consideration.

  • Delete The subject doesn't seem to meet notability per the above arguments. They also seem to be an actor of sorts from what my attempt to find sources showed me, though none of the roles they have been involved in seem to be major, either.--Brocade River Poems (She/They) 02:32, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    In response to the request for deleting the article, there are several key points that need to be considered. Firstly, Google News, as a search and news distribution tool, does not always display reliable sources and may not cover all relevant sources due to various reasons, including algorithmic flaws. However, this issue should not be the primary criterion for deciding whether to keep or delete an article on Wikipedia.
    This article is about an Iranian athlete who has achieved significant success in the field of karate. We must keep in mind that many Persian news outlets, due to their target audience and geographical focus, have covered this individual’s achievements more extensively than foreign news outlets. Therefore, in cases related to Iranian figures, using Persian sources as reliable references is of great importance.
    Moreover, international sources show that this person is not only a top-level sports champion but also has an active career in Iranian cinema as both an actor and a director. This combination of skills and achievements in two distinct fields (sports and cinema) highlights the notable value of this individual. 5.233.235.145 (talk) 06:36, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The response by InfoExplorer2023 was flagged as 95% probability of being AI Generated, and BookLover070 at 100%. Furthermore, given the IP Address geolocates to Khuzestan and the subject of the article appears to be from Khuzestan according to his Wikipedia article, it feels like WP:COI is probably afoot.

  • KeepThe article about this Karate athlete should be preserved, and any attempts to delete it should be avoided. According to Wikipedia's guidelines, articles about notable athletes with significant achievements at the national or international level meet the criteria for retention on Wikipedia. This Karate athlete is a recognized champion with valuable medals at the continental level in Asia, which is considered one of the highest levels of international competition.Regarding sources, the article includes reliable and credible sources that have covered this champion in various media outlets and publications. According to Wikipedia's rules, such sources are sufficient to establish significant coverage (SIGCOV) and demonstrate notability. Especially in sports, champions who hold high-level medals, such as Asian championships, are clearly notable at both continental and global levels.A similar article, such as the one about Negin Altooni, who also has similar medals and notability in the field of Karate, demonstrates that such articles not only deserve to be kept but also serve as a reference for recognizing these champions within the community. This athlete, with international achievements and participation in continental and global competitions, clearly meets the notability requirements, and the article should be preserved in line with Wikipedia’s policies.Therefore, the request to delete this article is unfounded, and based on the sources and Wikipedia's rules, the article fully meets the criteria for notability and significant coverage.5.233.235.145 (talk) 06:18, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fails notability, never achieved anything important. the article tries to show him as a two time Asian Championship medalist but that's not in senior level. Sports2021 (talk) 01:26, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep In karate, unlike many other sports, there is no significant difference between the youth (under-21) and adult competitions in terms of credibility and status. In fact, both the youth and adult categories are evaluated at the same level, and there is no distinction in the value and importance of their achievements. This is often misunderstood by those who lack sufficient expertise in this sport. Many uninformed individuals, including some media outlets, may assume that youth competitions are less important than adult competitions. However, the reality is that youth competitions in karate are held with the same level of difficulty and seriousness, and the medals earned in both categories hold equal credibility and value.Particularly in prestigious continental events like the Asian Championships, which are overseen by the World Karate Federation (WKF), the medals are recognized as global successes. The quality of these competitions does not differ from that of adult competitions, and in many cases, athletes who achieve medals in the youth category quickly find remarkable success at the international adult level as well.This misunderstanding regarding the differences between age categories leads some individuals to fail to recognize the valuable achievements of athletes. However, from the perspective of experts and those who are deeply familiar with the structure of karate, such successes, even in the youth category, are by no means less significant than those in the adult category.Please advise users who lack sufficient knowledge about this sport not to remove templates or edit the article, as doing so only harms the integrity of information, such as that found on Wikipedia in English, and spreads misinformation about karate. Maintaining accuracy and reliability in the discourse surrounding this sport is essential.InfoExplorer2023 (talk) 20:50, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fails notability, never won a major medal. the article shows he won 2 Asian Championships bronze medals but they were in youth and junior level, no senior medal yet. Sports2021 (talk) 01:21, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep In the world of karate, one of the unique features is that competitions for youth and adults are regarded equally in terms of value and importance, with neither group having superiority over the other. Unlike many other sports that often view youth competitions as a preliminary stage, in karate, both age categories are judged by the same standards, and the achievements and medals of both groups hold equal significance. This reality may seem unfamiliar to those who are not fully acquainted with karate, and some individuals or media may mistakenly perceive that youth competitions are less important than those for adults. However, the truth is that youth competitions are held with similar challenges and difficulties as those for adults, and the medals earned at both levels are equally credible and valuable.For example, in prestigious events like the Asian Championships, which are organized under the auspices of the World Karate Federation (WKF), the medals won are recognized as international successes, and the quality of competition is in no way inferior to that of adult events. It is noteworthy that athletes who achieve medals in the youth category often quickly find success at the international adult level as well. These misconceptions about the value of achievements in different age categories can lead to misunderstandings. However, experts and those familiar with the structure and complexities of karate clearly understand that success in any age category—whether youth or adult—is equally important and significant, and one should not regard the value of one over the other as lesser.InfoExplorer2023 (talk) 20:21, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Again, after some research, I'm just finding out that 160 episodes were filmed with the actor "Swapnil Joshi" but then they were deleted and refilmed from episode 73, Tilak has also wiped some articles too just because they contained some footage. and while deleted by some user, It also did air on ZEE TV, it has many indecisive things, for exmaple some sources say it aired from '93 to '96 while others say it's aired from '93 to '96 but later shifted to DD1, some other say that it was aired in '99 on ZEE TV for the first time and some that it aired on DD2-Metro and shifted to ZEETV and/or DD, It's very hard to find truthful sources, as all talk about the same thing but say it differently. for say the example mentioned above.

Not worth entertaining a discussion when the first reference you supplied falls squarely under WP:NEWSORGINDIA.

    • Source 4 is primary source sagarworld founded by the son and grandson of Ramanand Sagar, Director and Producer of the show.

    • Source 6 is intervew with Govind Khatri, an actor from the show about what role was originally offered to him and about his life after the series.
    • Source 7,8,9,10,11,12 are all about Sarvadaman D. Banerjee (main lead of the show) and interview with him, on his life after the series.

All sources are poor with some WP:NEWSORGINDIA and no reliable source independent of the makers and actors of the show with indepth significant coverage to pass notability. RangersRus (talk) 23:37, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure your assessment is completely correct. Taking just one example, source 5 offers very significant coverage beside an interview, in a bylined article in a very reliable newspaper. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 07:38, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sourve 5 says "Krishna made Swapnil Joshi a star overnight; co-director Moti Sagar talks about the TV show." This source is not independent of the claim by the makers themselves. Source needs to be completely secondary independent. RangersRus (talk) 15:20, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do I have to copy and paste the whole article here? The major part is attributed to the journalist. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 15:57, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I cannot make it any more clearer than what the journalist himself said on the top of his article about the maker talking about the show and anything that journalist wrote in that article is the outcome of the interview. It is not an indepedent source at all. I am leaving at that. RangersRus (talk) 16:10, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The following parts can be attributed Kavita Awaasthi, journalist for The Hindustan Times, based on her interview with Sagar; the media outlet being considered generally reliable, they can be used to verify a number of facts that contribute to the notability of the program, such as, at least:

After making the successful TV show Ramayan, producer Ramanand Sagar wanted to tap into another epic show — the Bhagavat Puran. Produced by Ramanand, Subhash Sagar and Prem Sagar, and directed by Ramanand, Anand Sagar and Moti Sagar, Shri Krishna was one of the biggest grossers for Doordarshan during the seven years it was on air. The national broadcaster had a limit on the number of episodes it could air in the ’80s, but the ’90s brought about a change in these rules. A producer could now make a show for a longer duration.

Music composer Ravindra Jain composed the music for this serial. The title song, ‘Shree Krishna Govind Hare Murari’, became popular in India and abroad. The show ran for more than seven years, and had over 200 episodes. The show covered Krishna’s life, from his birth to the time of his grandchildren.

The show was shot in Gujarat’s Umbergaon and Vadodara, where they put up huge sets.

Swapnil had a huge fan following because of the show. People thought he was Krishna.

This, in my opinion, in a 2016 article about a 1993 program, can be given a certain credit and at least contributes to the apparent notability of the show (that had, as I am sure you have noticed, 221 episodes and originally aired during 6 years.....) and I think that the material, if the page was redirected, would be lost, which would be detrimental to the encyclopaedia. (And that's just one source). Thank you. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 16:41, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
omg finally for goodness' sake someone mentions this, I'm not trying to be rude but why can't someone just read the sources and watch the show for 2 whole minutes to get some fruit out of it. GOD! (replied to mushy yank) Auspiciouswastaken (talk) 18:43, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

NC less than a year ago but given that two editors have since been blocked, It think Asif needs another look. I'm unable to find evidence she meets N:ACTOR. Star Mississippi 01:57, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That user is currently blocked so unlikely to reply. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:27, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: No significant coverage found; fails to meet NACTOR and GNG. I agree with CNMall41 that multiple roles do not confirm notability, but rather suggest the possibility of being notable. GrabUp - Talk 08:23, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable youth council of a non-notable barangay in Surigao City. Redirecting as an WP:ATD would be a bad idea since this is not a plausible search term. HueMan1 (talk) 00:19, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:SIGCOV. When I first came across this article, the only source cited was to an unreliable genealogy website. I removed that source because it isn't usable per the reliable sources noticeboard. The subject's only claim to notability in the article is who her husband and brother are. This seems to be a case of WP:NOTINHERITED. 4meter4 (talk) 23:59, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep per http://etbl.teatriliit.ee/artikkel/loo-talvari_ida8 is a serious source --Estopedist1 (talk) 07:32, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ExRat Thank you for finding reference. I do think it's wrong to make assumptions about BEFORE searches made by others; particularly when all of the sources you found are not in English. It's unlikely that Estonian language references, like the ones you found, would be found in a standard WP:BEFORE. Indeed requiring nominators to search in foreign languages they don't speak or read or criticizing them for not doing so is bordering on WP:Bad faith.4meter4 (talk) 00:07, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@4meter4. I do apologize if my phrasing sounded rude. It wasn't intentional. In retrospect, I should have phrased it as "Did you do a proper WP:BEFORE nominating?" or "Are you sure you did a thorough WP:BEFORE before nominating?" I can see how that came off as rather impolite. I do however disagree that nominators shouldn't be required to search for valid references in foreign languages before nominating. If someone is going to nominate an article for deletion, it's my opinion that before they nominate, it should be incumbent on them to do a very thorough WP:BEFORE. Valid references can't be disregarded just because they don't happen to be in English. Google translate can help parse references. Cheers, and once again, apologies.

  • Comment: I can't access it without going to a computer at the university in a different city (or finding a paper copy), but there was what seems like a significant article about her life and career in Göteborgs Handels- och Sjöfartstidning 4 March 1960, and another promising one in the same newspaper on 13 January 1950, in addition to what has been mentioned above. /Julle (talk) 12:18, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep in view of the sources identified by ExRat including a national encyclopedia and a dedicated television documentary that show a pass of WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 21:56, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
