Even for a Christian pop rock band, they have very little coverage and no charting. Three album reviews linked to their non-existent bio at https://www.jesusfreakhideout.com/artists/JacksonWaters.asp. Only one review at https://www.crossrhythms.co.uk/artists/Jackson_Waters/12942/ (and they review everything because they sell it too). No bio at https://www.allmusic.com/artist/jackson-waters-mn0000620593 and only one review: https://www.allmusic.com/album/come-undone-mw0000575907. Borderline fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO.

Please keep this page, Patrick Verbeke was an important part of the French music scene, and contrinuted a lot to the development and appreciateion of blues in France. I was on his radio show on Europe 1 and did concerts with him. If the article disappears, it only shows that the rule should be changed.

Doesn't have multiple significant roles. Sources cites are all rewritten press material. No in-depth discussion of the work of the subject at any sources. Only routine coverage in an attempt to keep the subject relevant and alive in media. Person who moved it back to main space is Questionable - with first edit as a Weak Keep on a deletion discussion and later, within very few edits, having confidence on moving draft back claiming that it satisfies WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR. I don't see how any of these two are satisfied. Very much okay to be proven wrong. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 16:18, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: No in-depth coverage. All the times of India sources are either PR and/or filled with direct quotations from the subject or trivial mentions. - hako9 (talk) 15:13, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: As per WP:NACTOR (#1) policy. The actor has played a significant role in multiple notable productions as listed in the article and those claims are well sourced with reliable sources. 42.106.216.188 (talk) 16:31, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • What is a significant role according to you? Most of the questionably notable tv series in which the said actor has appeared are roles which would be considered as supporting roles, inferred from what I can see in the respective articles on tv series.
      Most of these tv series fails GNG anyway. More importantly none of the sources are reliable (incl TOI) and none are WP:SIGCOV.
      Wikipedia isn't a tv directory for Indian soap operas. By your ridiculously lax inference of SNG, you are advocating just that- hako9 (talk) 19:47, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
WP:GNG is not the only route to establishing notability. As per WP:NTV TV shows that air on television stations (either national or regional in scope), or on a cable television channel with a broad regional or national audience are presumed to be notable. Below is the list of significant roles played by the actor:
The actor played Mahabali one of the main characters in Jag Janani Maa Vaishno Devi - Kahani Mata Rani Ki.[1]
Played Devantak one of the important characters in Vighnaharta Ganesha.
Played Bhimdev in Chandra Nandini
Played Kaliya Naag one of the important characters in Paramavatar Shri Krishna.
Played Virabhadra in Jhansi Ki Rani (2019 TV series)

These are not significant roles. Nope! Curious to understand what is your connection with the subject. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 09:48, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have no connection with the subject, but i would like to know how these role (very much important for these series) are not significant? Please explain in details. As you can see these are mythological series and they are incomplete without characters played by the subject in question. If you don’t know how please read the history of particular character, they all have independent articles. 42.106.218.44 (talk) 10:26, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Very interesting to play on ambiguity of the word significant in the guidelines. Allow me to explain what I think - significant role, according to me, would imply to a role that is significant in relative to the entire duration of the show and not playing a significant part in the plot or the story. In short, I would relate it directly to the screen time if being utmost crude. One cheat code that I follow to determine significance (it works positively in most of the cases but won't recommend others to make it a golden rule), is to check the chronological number the subject is listed in the cast section. If it is not in top 3-4, I usually consider it not as a significant role (Again, this rule should be apply with caution and the context of the show/film should be checked). While the subject plays significant mythological roles, these roles are not significant if seen from the perspective of the entire show. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 14:18, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@ In2020, Some observations:
  1. You are one of the other major contributors of this article
  2. This page has your most significant contributions if seen your not so lengthy edit history
  3. Your talk page reflects a COI warning
  4. Your first edit was a vote at a deletion discussion
  5. You have less than 50 edits but you know how to move a page

I will let other editors draw conclusions from these observations about your nature of edits and the relevance of your vote here. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 13:50, 15 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Sources presented in the article do not amount to in-depth coverage and are heavily dependent on a single source, Times of India. The coverage seems minor. I can't speak to the roles performed, but after looking at each article listed above - the features appear to list a significant number of actors, among which Siddiqui is not especially standing out - our own coverage of him does not indicate significance of roles performed, so I do agree that this presently fails WP:NACTOR. Source search, particularly WP:RSSE turns up mostly Times of India, which is noted in WP:RSP "to have a reliability between no consensus and generally unreliable." In this case, I would say the standard for notability demands more in-depth coverage than shown currently - I'm not seeing evidence of passing WP:GNG. A S U K I T E  05:43, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per analysis by Asukite. Notability of the TV shows listed above is shaky and the subject does not seem to stand apart from many other actors listed in the cast. So, NACTOR is not met and there's not enough coverage for GNG. -- Ab207 (talk) 14:12, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Completely unreferenced article about a band, not making any discernible claim to passing WP:NMUSIC: the notability claim on offer here is that they existed, it's so poorly referenced that it doesn't even assign them a genre, and the band is not even mentioned at all in our article about Kim Pieters, the one claimed band member who seems to have independent notability as a visual artist (but not necessarily as a musician according to the way her article is written). As I don't have access to a database in which I could retrieve New Zealand media sourcing from the 1990s, I'm perfectly willing to withdraw this if some Kiwi can salvage it with some proper sourcing and substance -- but just unsourcedly asserting that a band existed, the end, is not an instant notability freebie in the absence of some concrete and properly sourced evidence that they would actually pass our notability criteria for bands.

The only sourcing I can find on Burgreen are publications of the Episcopal Church. For someone to be notable we need to be able to source them to reliable, 3rd party indepdent sources which give indepth coverage.

  • Keep – Beneath the surface, there's plenty of press coverage: see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. While he may not have been the world's most noteworthy person, these sources amount to significant coverage, particularly considering WP:BASIC's statement that "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability". Putting these sources together, we have more than enough to write a policy-compliant non-stub article, which means he's notable. (WP:BISHOPS makes an argument that bishops are automatically notable, but we needn't delve into that when the GNG is passed, as in this case.) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:39, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per the multiple reliable sources coverage identified above that together shows a pass of WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 23:53, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- Bishops of major denominations are notable per se. Needs tagging as stub for expansion. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:40, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There is no agreed upon inclusion criteria for religious leaders, definantely not one that automatically grants all the holders of the title of bishop notability. If we look at that string of 7 articles, those are all hyper local articles, one of them exists because Birgreeen was the son-in-law of a couple in the community, most others are about events not about Burgreen, and if being able to find a local newspaper article on someone being oradained an Epsicopal priest is grounds for creating an article, than we should have articles on way more Episcopal Priests than we do. Having a string of 7 mentions in hyper local coverage mainly of the event type does not add up to making someone notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:37, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:BEFORE and Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Common_outcomes#Clergy, so to state that there is "no consensus" is false. Bearian (talk) 14:48, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete A one-sentence stub. The coverage Extraordinary Writ has found is local and WP:MILL, a quarter of the population of any US state would be notable if that is considered sufficient. Furthermore, it's not clear that the Episcopal Diocese of the Armed Services and Federal Ministries is equivalent to a regular diocese. Several of those Episcopal bishops have been borderline cases with substantially better sourcing. I don't think the presence of the magic word "bishop" justifies a keep, and don't see coverage to justify a keep either. User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 18:39, 23 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The article has been completely incomprehensible since October 2009 when it was tagged as such. This implies that no one cares enough to want to improve it. It's so incomprehensible that I think it would have to be a start-from-scratch job; in its current state, I can't imagine who the readership are supposed to be. It would be helpful were an expert on computer graphics to give an opinion on whether there's a need for an article on this subject. If Yes, I'd say reduce this to a stub and hope someone works on it; if No, then delete. Elemimele (talk) 19:42, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There are multiple concepts of orientation in computer vision:
    • local orientation estimation - the orientation of anisotropy in the neighborhood of a pixel, such as the gradient direction in edge detection, as mentioned in Edge_detection#Approaches
    • Object orientation estimation - the orientation of an object within an image. This is computed in Pose (computer vision) estimation.
    • Image orientation estimation - what is the global orientation of a whole image? This is useful for photo orientation, or a robot determining its attitude. I don't know if we have a good article for this. It is described in, e.g., Scale-invariant_feature_transform#Orientation_assignment and Image registration.
    Given the multiple concepts of orientation in computer vision, either a disambiguation page or a broad concept article may be the best approach. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 11:25, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    In the case of a dab page, as Orientation is already a dab page, which links to this article, the disambiguation should be done in a section of Orientation, and this article should become a redirect to this section. D.Lazard (talk) 11:50, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete can’t read the Indonesian sources but the English source does not look reliable. I found some sources regarding the sinking of the SS Van Imhoff [2] [3] [4] but these do not seem to be RS. This event is already mentioned on Nias. I don’t think a month long ‘state’ with so little written about it requires its own article. (I will note sources say allied media covered up the sinking which may account for lack of RS but that’s not a reason to keep the page.) Vladimir.copic (talk) 13:39, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep -- It is potentially a harmless article, but I think it might be better to give it a NPOV name such as German occupation of Nias. I rather doubt that the German rulers considered themselves as a sovereign state, rather as occupying it on behalf of the Axis powers, which is consistent with their peacefully handing the island over to the Japanese. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:14, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I speak Indonesian. Page 359 of one of Oktorino's books (Jejak Hitler di Nusantara - Petualangan, Intrik dan Konspirasi Nazi di Indonesia - The Footsteps/Traces of Hitler in the Indonesian Archipelago: Nazi Adventures, Intrigues and Conspiracies' in Indonesia) discusses the possibility that Hitler escaped to Indonesia, married a local woman and died a Muslim in Surabaya. Davidelit (Talk) 04:28, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Wow. The book says this and we only get an article about a 30 day Nazi republic. We have been robbed of a great section in Adolf Hitler titled "Post-retirement Life in Surabaya". Joking aside, I double down on my delete vote now then. Vladimir.copic (talk) 06:35, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The Geerken book is self-published so does not meet RS standards as per WP:RSSELF and the section of the book talking about the Free Republic of Nias contains no referencing. See this amateur review by Hans Veltman of the book for an idea of its reliability. The other source is a self-published website that does not give any sources for the information presented and looks to be quite a biased site. All other sources appear to be in Indonesian (which have been questioned above) or Dutch. Vladimir.copic (talk) 00:21, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Do you say this is "fake story" that never happened? Given that the story is apparently true, that page is relatively well written and well sourced to Indonesian sources, I do not see a compelling reason for deletion. The sources are few, I agree, but having at least some coverage in several books I think makes this story worthy a page. My very best wishes (talk) 03:01, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete There is only one main reference, which is clearly unreliable. A list of survivors of the sinking of SS van Imhoff is available elsewhere in wikipedia, which demonstrates a fundamental confusion on the part of the original editor as regards the name of the doctor who was one of the survivors.

Donna Smith (journalist) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article about a television journalist, not properly sourcing any credible claim to passing WP:JOURNALIST. The only notability claim on offer here is that she exists, the article is so outdated that until I fixed this a minute ago it still described her as the current host of a program whose own article says she left it 13 years ago, and the only source being cited is her former staff profile on the self-published website of her own employer rather than any evidence of third-party coverage about her or her work. As always, the notability test for journalists is not passed by using primary sources to verify that they exist, it's passed by using reliable source coverage about them in media outlets independent of their own careers to verify that their work has been externally validated as significant. But there's nothing like that here, and even on a ProQuest search I'm not finding anything better: I get over 1,000 hits on the generic phrase "Donna Smith", virtually none of which are verifiably this Donna Smith (which is a name far, far too common to assume anything in the absence of hard proof), and if I try "Donna Smith" APTN to filter the noise I literally get reduced to just one trivial hit in an event calendar.

  • Keep Seriously? Can anyone familiar with the Western tradition even assert with a straight face that this topic fails WP:GNG?

I'm sorry if that came across as an ad hominem, but incredulity can sound that way. To put it simply, everything attributed to speech of Jesus of Nazareth in any canonical Christian writing has approaching two millennia of commentary. The fact that the various citations are not in this article doesn't mean a reasonable person would conclude that the topic might possibly be non notable.

  • Delete. I'm not experienced in researching topics about the Bible, but God has clearly failed me in my searches for good coverage about this. This regular Google search just gives you a bunch of blogs (of which the reliability I don't know of) only mentioning the time Jesus talked about children, and blogs and legitimate sources like Christianity Today talking about the line "Jesus Loves the Little Children" (and man, would that sound creepy out of context), which isn't a line from the Bible but from a hymn C. Herbert Woolston wrote. GBooks just gives me a bunch of bizarre children's book that use that line as their titles, and thus establishes no notability for this topic. Only one result in this Google Scholar cites the passages currently in the wiki, and the rest talk about different Jesus topics while only using the phrase "little children" not to talk about these passages. I may change my !vote to a Weak keep if this thesis qualifies as academic coverage that establishes notability. 👨x🐱 (talk) 18:57, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think that qualifies as academic coverage since the bibliography has zero academic sources.--User:Namiba 19:39, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have changed my !vote to Keep due to academic sources provided by other editors here, but rename to Teachings of Jesus about children; not really seeing why the title needs to be specifically "little" children, as the provided sources just describe and label Jesus' teachings as just on children in general. Additionally, WP:TNT; since I'm noticing the sources in this discussion cite Bible lines different from what the Wikipedia article in its current state cites, it's very likely violations of WP:SYNTH, WP:NPOV, and WP:OR are going on; apart from one sentence about an analysis by Heinrich Meyer, the article does not use verification from independent sources stating the lines were about or related to little children. Thus, the article needs to be re-written with citations from academic material. 👨x🐱 (talk) 17:58, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep; a Google search will produce a phenomenal number of hits for this, because it is a key concept in Christianity, and seen as important by a huge range of Christian churches. Of course it's easy to write off all of these sources as biased or primary, but you have to ask yourself whether the sheer number of them, and their range, hints at the notability of the subject. But for those who want unbiased sources, here's a BBC-bite-sized-guide revision topic on one of the Jesus/little-children stories[5], which shows that the subject is worthy of exam syllabuses; here's a study-guide from a multi-faith site with no particular alliance to Christianity, as evidence that Jesus' teaching about little children is seen as a notable feature to those studying world religions [6], and as just one example of the thousands produced by Christian organisations, here's the Taizé organisation's take on it (Taizé are well-known and well-respected) [7]. I'm not saying the article is perfect (it could certainly do with referencing) but to delete it as not notable (that's what GNG is) would be jaw-droppingly weird, to the extent that this Afd feels like it might be intended to make a point. Elemimele (talk) 20:09, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Some deletion nominations continue to amaze me. Do we really have editors of an English-language encyclopedia who don't realise that "suffer little children" has become a commonplace phrase, and that it originated in a translation of a biblical report of Jesus's words? Phil Bridger (talk) 09:01, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • I have never heard "suffer little children" in any of my everyday conversations with other people, so I am not aware that it is a commonplace phrase. 👨x🐱 (talk) 18:16, 17 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • If your education is limited to everyday conversation then I can believe that you have not heard the phrase. People editing an encyclopedia should not have such limited horizons. The USA is much more a Christian country than the UK, so I find it difficult to believe that a quotation from the Christian bible is not more well-known there, rather than less. Phil Bridger (talk) 18:13, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as significant coverage in multiple reliable sources has been identified in this discussion so that WP:GNG is passed and deletion is unnecessary in my view. Also as a sidenote suffer little children is a common phrase in the UK broadsheets, imv Atlantic306 (talk)
  • Keep in support of affirmative arguments set out above and the fact that the articles on Matthew 18 and Matthew 19 direct the reader here rather than reproduce the material within those articles themselves. However, development is needed, and more secondary references are available. Popular usage of the phrase "suffer little children" is missing from the article. Luke 18 lacks coverage of verses 15-17, which could be addressed by adding there "See Teaching of Jesus about little children", and Gospel of Thomas does not refer to Saying 22. - BobKilcoyne (talk) 03:34, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This football player seems to have played in two clubs in Brazil: Castanho and Poções. Poções currently plays in the Brazilian Serie C, which is a WP:FPL... I don't know what league they were in back in 2008-09. He also played for J2 League club at the time Shonan Bellmare. The J2 League is an FPL. I don't know how to check his stats because information on this player is so hard to find, nevermind the fact that there is an unknown Portuguese player with the same name... Anyways, this player COULD potentially scrape by WP:NFOOTY by the skin of its teeth, but the subject miserably fails WP:GNG for me, and therefore I suggest a deletion.

Something iffy here. This important influencer has almost no Internet results (61 distinct Google hits[10]??), and the sources... Well, the Stevenson University text from July 2020[11] can be found exactly the same, but from another LinkedIn "influencer", from January 2020[12]. Looking at the other sources: the first has a very short quote from her, the second doesn't even mention her but shows an image from her Linkedin page, which leaves us with only source three (a podcast) and four (an article from "Working Mother" which reads like a puff piece more than actual journalism). Her companies like Medsnake Media don't seem to be really notable either[13]. Growth Academy is harder to search for, as that name is used by many different things, but it doesn't look good either[14]. Basically, for an influencer, she has a large number of followers, but apparently very little actual impact, making this read more like an ad for a non notable person than an actual article on a notable influencer.

  • Do not delete - Subject is notable and an Independent Artist. The notable artists that this one is being compared to, are not independent within their music career. If the fixing of the article is no longer being questioned and it’s now a matter of notability, this can be addressed. This particular artist is notable within the independent artist sector of music. There are many different avenues to take for a music career and true independency is one of them. The article has been sourced properly. Because of lack of comparison to others, the subject shouldn’t be deleted. It’s a great start for any artist who is doing it alone. Remove the deletion and give the artist a chance and time. The subjects legitimacy isn’t questionable. What’s being questioned is his level of notability in comparison to others, which is somewhat discriminatory. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Changecoming1 (talkcontribs) 18:08, 22 July 2021 (UTC) Changecoming1 (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

This is another case of an LDS ward which the church hoped would grow into a town but which apparently never did. It geolocates to a house which aerials show replaced an earlier building sometime in the decade after WW II. That earlier building would appear to be the church shown on topos. Other than that, the area is all farms, never seeming to change much over the decades. Our favorite LDS genealogical publication is the only source I've found, since searching is well-nigh impossible for so common a word, and I'm not willing to take their description of the place as a "small farming settlement" as imbuing a vague rural area with notability.

  • Keep. Bench had a population of 75, according to the 1909 Davis Encyclopedia, so it did grow into a small town, although the population clearly eroded over time (which is extremely common with small towns). The USGS has an entry for the community, listing it as a populated place, and reference works of the past note the community's population. WP:GEOLAND is thus satisfied: "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. Even abandoned places can be notable, because notability encompasses their entire history." The deletion nomination appears to be based on observations of the current state of the community, but reference works of the past tell us this was a once-happening place. Since notability is not temporary, and since there are other encyclopedias which note this community, we likely should, as well. Firsfron of Ronchester 21:23, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The Davis population figure, even taken at face value, does not show that Bench was a town at all; at best it shows that some area had that many people in it, but it doesn't characterize that area. For all we know, it could just represent all the farms whose mail was picked up at the Bench post office. We've been over the USGS entry many times: first, GNIS itself denies that it constitutes official recognition, and second, there are so many errors in GNIS, and its classification of "populated place" so broad, that we have deprecated it in AfD after AfD as far as the characterization of a place is concerned. The same story goes for old post offices.
I've found old abandoned places, like Conda, Idaho, but the difference is in the documentation. In the case of Conda, the maps show it used to be there, and there is perfectly good documentation of its construction and removal. In the case of Bench, it seems to me that the best we can do is string together a location given by GNIS, an LDS ward, a post office, and a population of uncertain authority, and synthesize them into a town called Bench. And on some level there's no doubting a place called Bench, but there really isn't enough here to characterize it. Mangoe (talk) 22:11, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"The Davis population figure, even taken at face value, does not show that Bench was a town at all; at best it shows that some area had that many people in it, but it doesn't characterize that area." No, it actually does, listing Bench, Idaho, under 'towns'. Bench also appears on the map in the same encyclopedia, not as "Bench PO", but as "Bench". We've got references calling the community a "small farming settlement" and a town. Clearly, this was a community, not a post office, as post offices don't have populations.

  • Weak delete - all we really have here are the statement in the canal book cited in the article that however the Davis Encyclopedia defines the scope is as that it had a population of 75. My searching brought up some passing mentions that aren't very helpful, and a number of fairly trivial references to the "Bench ward". Looks to me like this could well have just been a vague, undefined area based on the LDS ward. I'd probably have given this one the benefit of the doubt if I were nominator, but I'm not seeing the bases for an article here.

The cited source states that it was a town with a population of 75, which absolutely verifies there was a community here, and with a population of 75 residents.

A single line mentioning the town name and estimated population from the 1909 version of an encyclopedia does not warrant a standalone Wikipedia article. It does not pass WP:GNG. ––FORMALDUDE(talk) 05:49, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, a single line mentioning the town name and estimated population, in an encyclopedia, verify that this was a populated place, thus satisfying WP:GEOLAND: "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. Even abandoned places can be notable, because notability encompasses their entire history." Again I am asking: why are we deleting content included in other (print) encyclopedias? We delete articles on non-notable things, not communities that once had 75 residents. The sources used in this article are independent of the subject, and include a national encyclopedia, a publisher outside of the state of Idaho, a government database, a commercial website, and county newspapers from a 20-year period.

I changed the wording on the intro so it shows it is for those named Tom or Thomas (both Toms do appear to be Thomases, so I agree, a move to Thomas Lockyer as the base name is a good idea, I just didn't want to do that while this was ongoing, but perhaps afterwards).

Inclusion in a directory of museums opened by women does not establish notability. Neither does inclusion in a regional (Denver) business journal list of "2015 Cultural Attractions" which is literally just a list of things to do in the area. The third source is just the same regional journal noting in a blurb that the museum and another local attraction were included in a non-notable list of 25 children's museums created by The Early Childhood Education Zone (an unreliable blog). I maintain this is just routine regional coverage and I don't see it passing ORG or GNG. I appreciate your search for sources, however. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 17:12, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There's more sourcing beyond Denver, which I'll try to add during the course of this discussion. I think together they might get it to WP:ORG. List of attractions was just to cite attendance, not notability on my end. Sorry to confuse. Star Mississippi 19:08, 30 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment having dug a little further (and for the purposes of this, disregarding the local source element) and the info is inconsistent which is an issue raised above. A museum drawing 300K/year was one thing, but it seemed on further digging that 70K was their peak (as of 2015) and now I'm not sure. It's a small children's museum, and community fixture, which unfortunately doesn't mean anything for WP:ORG. I'm still saying keep for the moment, but maybe closer to a weak keep. Going to keep looking to see what else I can find. Star Mississippi 15:03, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Huh? I don’t see anything currently in WP:ORG about attendance determining notability. Please correct me if I’m wrong. The bit in there that would help the delete case is WP:AUD, which requires coverage in one non-regional source. Looking carefully, bizjournals (in the form of Denver Business Journal) and Colorado Hometown Weekly have strong RS cases, but they are admittedly not national or international sources.

Some comments on the reliability of existing sources:

The WP:AUD argument for delete is that Hageman, and Rowman should be considered regional because they're about Colorado (regardless of the publisher) and that the only non-regional source is Danilov. In my opinion, 1 ≠ 0, and according to WP:AUD, one is enough. If people want to harp on this, and there are no other undisputed non-regional sources found, then fine. I would say that's beyond deletionism, it would be like a case of deletionist supererogation. That's all I have to say about that. - Scarpy (talk) 08:10, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    • Comment I'm still leaning keep, so I'm not sure what you're saying about deletionism in response to my comment Scarpy? My concern with respect to attendance is the museum's broader significance, but we can agree to not really disagree I guess? Star Mississippi 17:04, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
AfD discussions are not a vote. The closing admin should look at the quality of the arguments for an against. I say this to point out when you’re talking about WP:ORG and then talking about your own criteria for “broader significance” of museums, you’re talking about two different things. There are some caveats in WP:ORG (like WP:AUD) but the primary criteria is A company, corporation, organization, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject.
If one follows the guidelines, WP:AUD is the best way I’m aware of to Steelman the guideline-agnostic cases made for deletion so far. My point there is that the best case for deletion in the guidelines is it not even particularly good or applicable here.
This is where the “let’s agree to disagree” breakdowns down. Yes, the two of us can agree to disagree, but guidelines are guidelines. Ultimately we can disagree on interpretations of them to some extent. But of the things that are clear as day in the guidelines, it’s not about disagreeing with me, it’s about applying criteria not in the guidelines to decisions made on Wikipedia. Otherwise we’re engaging in something like AfD judicial activism. That creates a lot of problems because it means that Wikipedia doesn’t even follow its own rules. In the longterm, if this occurs a lot, it’s bad for Wikipedia’s future because it obfuscates the expectations contributors will have for their work being included. Consider scenarios where someone reads the guidelines, writes content according to the guidelines and then it’s deleted because some editors decided to ignore the guidelines in an AfD. That contributor would be justifiably upset.
Perhaps there should be a section in WP:ORG specially about museums and their attendance that the supersedes the primary criteria. The place to have that would be the WP:ORG talk page, and if found consensus and this museum was below the threshold, then it should be deleted. AfD is the wrong forum for it. - Scarpy (talk) 18:53, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think that's where WP:ITSAMUSEUM came in. Pinging Doncram who can speak to the history of it better than I can and whether it speaks to your point. Guidelines are that--guidelines not rules, so it's very possible decisions can counter them. I've had articles deleted. It's art, not science. I'm well aware AFD isn't a vote and as I'm not arguing for deletion, so I'm still confused. I've actually been accused of being biased toward museums, so I guess we'll see where it lands. Star Mississippi 02:34, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It’s true in English that guidelines and rules are somewhat different, but polices like ignore all rules use them more or less synonymously.
If we don’t follow the guidelines, we’re just fickle and capricious. We become a naked popularity contest—that’s not what encyclopedias are.
I like Museums too. I also want this article kept. but it’s not about us being on the same team of Museum inclusionists and getting museum articles kept if that means weakening the reasoning for all AfDs to some extent. There’s the primary criteria, there’s WP:AUD, there’s the rest of the guidelines. Those are the concepts that we should be reasoning with in AfD. This isn’t some crazy edge case. You find the sources covering a topic, you see if they’re reliable and in-depth. You compare this the the criteria for the category. It meets the notability criteria for its category, or it doesn’t. If we stick to that, bias for or against Museums doesn’t matter, bias for or against cultural regions of the US doesn’t matter… In the nearly infinite number of things that could be argued on Wikipedia, cases like this should be as simple as what Leibniz envisioned when he said Gentlemen, let us calculate!’. (I’m sure he would have said Gentlepeople if he was alive in 2021) - Scarpy (talk) 07:24, 12 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]


  • Keep Agree there is enough sourcing to pass GNG. Wikipedia is partially a gazetteer and museums are important in that capacity. - Scarpy (talk) 05:19, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I’m reminded of this AfD discussion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kitty Crimes (2nd nomination) where similar disparaging remarks were made to the above “Colorado Hometown Weekly.” @El cid, el campeador: I want to ask you to reconsider how you talk about other parts of America. You never hear people say “ohh, the Village Voice was just a ‘hometown weekly.’” But I see plenty of Wikipedians treating Denver publications that way because… they’re from Denver. The implication is clearly not about the merit or reliability of the specific periodical, but rather a sneer based on it’s geographic association. In other words, “it’s Denver therefore it’s not in the same rarefied class as (insert whatever metropolitan area the author is from).” If I’m miss reading you, I’m sorry. But please do tread carefully on this topic. I’m from Denver and have encountered the sentiment numerous times in my life that whatever art or culture we produce doesn’t count because our population isn’t large enough or the coordinates don’t fall in acceptable ranges of longitude. - Scarpy (talk)
I can assure you I have no anti-Denver bias, and I note I had nothing to do with that other discussion. Simply put, the coverage here is WP:ROUTINE - and the fact that it is only local plays into that. Ultimately, though, the fact that the sourcing is from "bizjournals.com" is irrelevant - the stories cited to simply do not establish notability, as my analysis should show. The fact that a publication would run a story about a local museum being listed in a list by an unreliable blog does cause me to doubt the validity of the source, though. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 12:48, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@El cid, el campeador: then you won’t mind striking out the “Colorado Hometown Weekly” prose from your opening AfD paragraph? - Scarpy (talk) 05:22, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, Star. There is certainly no bad faith at play. And thank you for your work on the article - if it is kept it will be due to your improvements. Best to both of you ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 13:48, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I still disagree. See MOS:SCAREQUOTES Misused punctuation can also have similar effects. Quotation marks, when not marking an actual quotation, may be interpreted as "scare quotes", indicating that the writer is distancing themselves from the otherwise common interpretation of the quoted expression. The use of emphasis may turn an innocuous word into a loaded expression, so such occurrences should also be considered carefully. @El cid, el campeador: If you’re unwilling to strike it, will you at least properly italicize the name of the periodical? - Scarpy (talk) 00:41, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
With all due respect, I will absolutely not be doing either of those things. You’re being unreasonable and I’m not going to humor you. We’ve both made our points so let’s leave this for now. Cheers ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 00:50, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Italicizing the name of a periodical seems… normal—especially given the MOS. I’ll grant that this is not article space, but still. My constructive feedback here is to be more careful with the tone of things like this. I accept that you don’t intend it to sound condescending, but think about how it comes off to other readers. Alternative newspapers should be judged on their reliability and depth of coverage, their “localness” shouldn’t be an issue. I believe people from any area would bristle at seeing the term “local” used as a euphemism for as “irrelevant” when it comes to media produced in their area. Will leave it there. - Scarpy (talk) 05:32, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article about a film, not properly referenced as passing WP:NFILM. The strongest notability claim here is awards from minor film festivals that are not internationally prominent enough to satisfy NFILM #3 (which is looking for film festivals on the Cannes-Berlin-Venice-Toronto tier, not just every film festival that exists), and absolutely none of the footnotes being used are reliable or notability-building coverage: there are two citations to the filmmaker's directory entry on Amazon Prime, one to IMDb, one to a Q&A interview in which the filmmaker is talking about himself in the first person on a podcast, and one to an online magazine that would probably be okay amid a mixture of solid sources but isn't reputable or widely-circulated enough to singlehandedly get this film over WP:GNG if it's the only non-primary source on offer.

Hello Bearcat and team, Thank you for your timely reaction and guidance, after understanding why it was tagged for deletion, am recommending that the speedy deletion tag could be removed, as I improve it by adding more references to make it qualify for notability as per rules and guidelines.Thanks a lot Ndahiro derrick (talk) 18:03, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There's no speedy deletion tag on it, and you haven't actually added any sources that are making a difference — the new sources you've added are still unreliable blogs and/or primary sources that aren't support for notability. We're looking for reliable sources, which is not the same thing as "just any web page you can find that has the film's title in it". Bearcat (talk) 14:41, 2 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Gaius Servilius Casca (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Mostly original research, and also fails WP:SIGCOV. What's known is that one of Julius Caesar's assassins, Publius Servilius Casca, had a brother with an unspecified role in the conspiracy. No reliable up-to-date source reveals anything else about the brother, not even that "Gaius Servilius Casca" was his actual name, which is a confusion with another person (see Broughton, Magistrates of the Roman Republic vol. 3 OCLC 749579922). The article's original rendition seems to have contained either questionable material with misleading citations (I checked them myself) or outright inventions (such as the original name, "Titiedius", before this article was moved to a less implausible, yet still incorrect name), though this apparently didn't stop the people at Articles for Creation from accepting the draft submission.

  • Comment I have no definite opinion about this but note that The Death of Caesar: The Story of History's Most Famous Assassination (Strauss, 2015) identifies the second brother as Gaius Servilius Casca. If there's some confusion about this then it would be good to get it straight so that the issue does not keep repeating. Andrew🐉(talk) 18:35, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The source I cited says the name is a confusion with a 3rd person. "T. J. Cadoux believes that the evidence in our sources points to the existence of three rather than two Cascas, the two members of the conspiracy, and C[aius] Casca, Tr[ibune of the] pl[ebs]... Shackleton Bailey agrees that the evidence is in favor of the existence of three Cascas... The entries in the index would then be: [1] (Servilius) Casca, brother of the conspirator [subject of the nomination] ... [2] P. Servilius Casca Longus... [and] [3] C. Casca, Tr. pl. 44."
The Oxford Classical Dictionary's (2016) entry mentions the two brothers but has nothing to say about "Gaius".
These sources contain the inputs of 4 different authors: Broughton, Shackleton Bailey, Cadoux, Badian. An internet search reveals even more. Against them, Strauss shows no awareness of the argument that "Gaius Casca" was the name of a third person and not of Publius's brother, and he cites none of the works in which this is put forward. I'll boldly assume he simply wasn't up to date. Reading through his list of characters also makes me think he borrowed some info from wikipedia (WP:CITOGENESIS?). The brother already has an entry at Servilia gens#others, it doesn't seem to me like he needs a standalone article. Avilich (talk) 19:03, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Stothard is a journalist, not a historian. Given the date of publication it is highly likely that this is a case of WP:CITOGENESIS, especially since neither of the authors I mentioned above nor any others I know about show the slightest knowledge of that name. Avilich (talk) 19:10, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure that all members of CGR automatically receive article alerts from the project. Based on who responds to them, it seems as though many, perhaps most, either don't receive them or don't review them. So it's probably a good idea to mention discussions like this on the project's talk page—not simply because it might be of interest, but because the contributors so far seem doubtful of the wisdom of deletion without further investigation. Since it's been suggested, I'll post a notice. P Aculeius (talk) 11:43, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I don't know what Stothard is citing. Does he say? Citogenesis is a possibility, given the date, but I'd like to feel more certain before reaching that conclusion. If he doesn't cite anything in relation to Casca, or a verifiable source he could have used, I'd be more comfortable with that assertion. I note quickly that I checked the Clauss-Slaby Databank, and found no instances of "Titiedius" and "Casca" in the same inscription—although that's hardly conclusive. Countless Romans, including many important ones, aren't mentioned in any known epigraphy. But it does exclude one possibility. But "Titiedius" certainly does appear to be a gentilicium, so it's possible that there was a Titiedius Casca. We should try to figure out where this combination of names comes from. P Aculeius (talk) 11:59, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • I checked it, there are no inline citations to be seen anywhere near that excerpt. You're right that Titiedius is a 'gentilicium', but I found nothing connecting it with Casca. Avilich (talk) 15:28, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just seconding that Stothard did not include any inline citation for the name at page 53. He does have a "Sources" section at page 247, but it is not viewable online, at least by me. 68.189.242.116 (talk) 16:37, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: The OCD's third edition (1996) entry for Servilius Casca (contributors Cadoux and Badian) says "A third Casca, with the praenomen Gaius, apparently from a gens other than the Servilia, was tribune in 44; alarmed at the fate of C. Helvius Cinna, he put out a statement asserting that he had nothing but the cognomen Casca in common with the conspirators." That implies no conspirator was called Gaius Casca. NebY (talk) 13:42, 9 July 2021 (UTC) That maybe drew on Cassius Dio 44.52.[27] NebY (talk) 15:43, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lean delete, the current article is in terrible shape and pretty much everything is original research. A Servilius Casca, brother of Publius, and assassin of Caesar, did exist. He was not named Gaius though. The question should mostly be about his notability. As he is only known in connection with his brother, I think he could be dealt with in the article about Publius Casca.
Alternatively, the article could be renamed Gaius Casca (tribune of the plebs, 43 BC). It would cover the life of the Casca unrelated to the assassins of Caesar who may pass the notability threshold, albeit not much can be said of him. T8612 (talk) 17:00, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The qualifier 'tribune of the plebs' probably wouldn't be needed. Though there's equally as little to be said about the tribune, aside from the anecdote quoted above by NebY. Avilich (talk) 18:09, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Titiedius" returned to that article due to the edits of an anon editor posting from an IPv6 address. If no convincing evidence can be found for "Titiedius", it might just be a hoax & any useful information in this article be merged into the one about Publius, or the entire article converted into a redirect to Servilia gens. -- llywrch (talk) 20:03, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • This should just be deleted so everyone can move on more quickly. There are two editors in favor of deletion, the rest is just comments by people struggling to keep up with the reasoning, or simply drive-by remarks by editors who will never return here again after a few exchanges. There's nothing worth merging and the article subject itself is bogus. Avilich (talk) 14:47, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm completly justified in my comment. The so called "drive by editors" have all tried to the best of their abilities to solve why this article came to be and understanding that will likely help prevent more issues from rising again if anyone ever sites a bad source in the future misnaming this individual. Which is about 1000 times more helpful than just pushing a fast DELETE button on everything.★Trekker (talk) 08:09, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Leaving a bunch of comments lying around and not coming back consistently to address the points against you leaves each sub-discussion unfinished and gives the impression that the subject matter is more complicated than it actually is. The IP, for example, never came back to acknowledge my arguments against his source. There's also the first commenter, who is probably doing this deliberately. I have also not ever seen a 'merge' vote that's well justified, only as a proxy for those innately reluctant to support deletion. This all causes unnecessary delays and misjudgements, and 2 weeks for an unsourced stub of an article is an unreasonable duration by any standard. So, either commit yourself fully or not at all. If you're not prepared to defend your views, don't come in the way of editors who are more committed to improving the encyclopedia. Avilich (talk) 01:03, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - fails WP:GNG as there is no significant coverage about him. Doesn't matter if he appears in a game tomorrow, he still needs significant coverage. The FAQ from the top of WP:NFOOTBALL makes it crystal clear that all sport figures need to pass WP:GNG regardless of how many professional appearances they have.

    Q2: If a sports figure meets the criteria specified in a sports-specific notability guideline, does this mean he/she does not have to meet the general notability guideline?
    A2: No, the article must still eventually provide sources indicating that the subject meets the general notability guideline. Although the criteria for a given sport should be chosen to be a very reliable predictor of the availability of appropriate secondary coverage from reliable sources, there can be exceptions. For contemporary persons, given a reasonable amount of time to locate appropriate sources, the general notability guideline should be met in order for an article to meet Wikipedia's standards for inclusion. (For subjects in the past where it is more difficult to locate sources, it may be necessary to evaluate the subject's likely notability based on other persons of the same time period with similar characteristics.)

  • Comment Declaring 3 tiers in a sport in a country giving all participants in them default notability is just insane. We should limit such to at most 1 tier per sport per country.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:11, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Johnpacklambert: Neither WP:NSPORT nore its subsection WP:NFOOTBALL gives anyone default notability. Per its own FAQ, passing a SNG only means that the subject is supposedly likely to meet the general notability guideline, and thus merit an article in Wikipedia. The subject still has to pass the general notability guideline. What is insane are claims that a player who happened to participate in a match where everybody got paid is for some magical reasons notable even if nobody ever wrote so much as a sentence about him. And having appeared in a game in a 1 tier league in some country is no guarantee that a subject has significant coverage or any coverage for that matter. The only two leagues I've come across where I've never had a problem with sourcing even the one-game-wonder players are the NBA and the WNBA, and those are the absolute cream of the crop in their respective sport.

    The only two leagues I've come across where I've never had a problem with sourcing even the one-game-wonder players are the NBA and the WNBA These aren't the only sports, most players in the Premier League and even the EFL Championship can generate significant coverage from just a couple of appearances.

    @Joseph2302: I was only speaking from my own experience from Afd's, mostly in basketball and football. Those are the two leagues I've never had a problem with sourcing one-game-wonders, mostly because they had already made a name for themselves before they joined the league (in college or elsewhere). I honestly would have thought that the same would apply for the biggest and best leagues in football as it is the most popular sport in the world and while I agree they are astronomically more likely to have coverage than the run-of-the-mill professional player, I've seen my share of these one-game wonders from those leagues that have nothing to their name other than a statistical database entry or a minor transfer article. And those articles keep getting kept despite the subject having no significant coverage on them because "he played in a game where everybody got paid!" or "he has an ongoing career, somebody might write something about him sometime...maybe".

      • That's simply not so. The obligation per WP:BEFORE is on the nominator, which he does appear to have made an effort at. The presumption of notability for nationally broadcast TV shows is there for a reason. This one might be surmountable, but that's not the starting assumption. Jclemens (talk) 18:04, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
        • The presumption of notability is there because article creators don't always make any effort to find or use the best sources available, so poorly sourced TV show articles are sometimes repairable with better sourcing than was used at first. But if somebody actively makes an effort to find better sources and comes up dry, we do not waive the requirement for better sources and keep it regardless of the lack of viable sourcing to fix it with. So yes, once notability has been questioned, the existence of keep-making sources does have to be proven rather than just idly speculated. Bearcat (talk) 15:47, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - minor show which may have a minor following but lacks any coverage in major sources. "Tv-eh what's up in Canadian television" is not something to hang your hat on. Even the sources that do 'exist' are just cursory summaries which do not establish notability (Australian TV source, for example, is just a blurb). Epguides isn't doing anything for me, either. TVSERIES may convince me if this was a show from the pre-internet days, but it's from 2009 - if there is nothing on the internet it's because this show just doesn't matter.

  • Keep I added 6 references, 5 from main-stream publications, with a couple easily meeting GNG. I'm not sure why User:Bearcat only found 1 source in ProQuest, as most of these were there. I'm surprised I can't find a good Toronto Star one - but perhaps it's lost in the umpteen hits from the TV listings. Nfitz (talk) 00:17, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say I found only one source period, I said I found only one useful source that was actually counting for anything toward establishing notability, and otherwise only got glancing namechecks of this show's existence in coverage that wasn't about it in any non-trivial sense. You didn't find or add any new source that I hadn't seen: Marke Andrews' "Canadian productions get boost from U.S. strike" amounts to "a show called Stormworld is going into production, the end" in a source that's otherwise about the broad phenomenon of Canadian film and television producers trying to fill gaps in US television programming during a US writers strike; Michael D. Reid's "Acting can be dangerous game; Victoria actor has suffered his share of bumps and bruises, but says it's all part of the learning process" glancingly mentions the existence of Stormworld in an article whose subject is Calum Worthy. These sources aren't strongly enough about Stormworld to make it notable if they're the best sources you can find, because they're not saying anything substantive about Stormworld above and beyond the fact that it existed. Bearcat (talk) 11:24, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The Glen Schaefer article in The Province is in-depth, extensive, and easily meets GNG. The shorter piece by Oswald in the WFP is also significant. The show easily meets WP:NTV. I noted a couple met GNG - I'm not sure why focus on other references. I've added a couple more foreign references, though I'm sure that despite WP:N and WP:GNG are both achieved, I doubt they meet your standards. Nfitz (talk) 16:16, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
One source can count toward GNG, but one source cannot "meet" GNG all by itself. GNG requires several sources of the calibre and depth of the Glen Schaefer article, and is not instantly passed just by the Glen Schaefer article all by itself. Bearcat (talk) 05:23, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Which is irrelevant given that WP:N is easily met. Also one excellent source and many mediocre sources is also good enough to meet GNG - which is merely a guideline, not a black-and-white rule. Though I'm not sure what your objections are to the Winnipeg Free Press article. Nfitz (talk) 16:51, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There's no such thing as N without GNG, so by definition a thing cannot simultaneously fail GNG yet meet N. The problem with the Oswald WFP piece is that it isn't substantive, and just briefly namechecks Stormworld's existence as a brief coda at the end of an article whose core subject is Better Off Ted. If Stormworld cleared GNG, that would be fine for additional sourcing of stray facts, but it does not help to make GNG happen because it isn't non-trivial coverage.

Does not meet WP:GNG. The book currently being referenced as far as I can tell is only being referenced because it won an award from NATF. That leaves the Richard Fish sources, who from what I can tell has been a part of NATF almost every year but I can't tell if he worked at or just attended the events. Regardless I would question whether he is truly independent of the subject. It's also worth noting that "multiple sources are generally expected" and that "Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability." So even if Richard Fish is independent of the subject it would generally be expected that there are other sources out there, and so far I have been unable to find other independent and reliable secondary sources that have more than a trivial mention. If someone has access to newspapers.com they might find some non-digital sources that I'm unaware of. TipsyElephant (talk) 01:03, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. As you suspected, the good stuff is hidden away in old newspapers. I found a few sources in ProQuest which I think constitute a pass for WP:GNG:
  • "All Ears and Imagination / Resurgence of radio plays is sweet sound to Hempstead couple" by Peter Goodman in Newsday, 24 September 2002. 818 words discussing the event, its organizers, and a bit about its history. Mentions a festival grant from the NEH for $10,000, and that the NATF has more than 200 members.
  • "This weekend's audio theater workshops offers the chance to see radio performers in action" by Ray Routhier in Portland Press Herald, 3 November 2002. 1991 words, a little bit promotional at the start (eg where the event is & how much it costs) but then goes into more detail about the event, how it was founded, and its ambitions for the future of radio theatre.
  • "Drama for the Ear and the Imagination" by David Cote in the New York Times, 17 August 2003. A 2163-word article about radio theatre, of which 321 words (three consecutive paragaphs) discuss NATF.
I'm not finding much more than these (though searching for MRTW would probably turn up more), but I think they show sufficient coverage for basic notability. They're all original reporting and non-trivial coverage, which do more than simply promote an event. It's not incredible stuff but I think a decent article could be written from it. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 09:26, 10 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. The person is not high enough up in the Atlantic Council to be notable, and there doesn't appear to be any in-depth coverage of her. Bbb23 (talk) 01:05, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: In depth coverage? Do you refer to her not being mentioned enough in the press? If so, see New York Times, the Guardian and CNN for a few examples. In addition a large range of well known media outlets publish her opinion pieces because she is intrinsically involved in Uyghur human rights activism in the United States. She is one of the most prominent Uyghur activists, has regular correspondence with US senators and only a few weeks ago discussed the Uyghur Genocide and her brother with the US Secretary of State.

  • keep (maybe move) due to in-depth coverage but potentially move to the topic at hand, such as Internment of Ekpar Asat. Otherwise it would be WP:BLP1E since the coverage is not about her but about her cause and her brother. --hroest 18:47, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment WP:BLP1E applies only "If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual", and the sources below demonstrate that she has not otherwise remained and does not appear likely to remain a low-profile individual. She appears to be covered by multiple independent and reliable sources over time due to her multi-faceted advocacy and its various impacts, with biographical and career information that can further develop a BLP article.
