The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. While the subject's death received significant coverage, the sense of the discussion is that there is insufficient coverage to show notability. Several people mentioned that a redirect to the march article is appropriate. I am not making that part of the close because I don't see that it reached consensus, but neither was it opposed. I therefore placed the redirect as a normal editing decision. Xymmax So let it be written So let it be done 03:17, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Subject fails WP:BLP1E with minimal RS coverage prior to her untimely demise under circumstances that almost inevitably generated some tabloidish coverage. Ad Orientem (talk) 23:47, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirecting to 2022 Azadi March-II seems plausible then. USaamo (t@lk) 11:38, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
A redirect to 2022 Azadi March-II#Incident, after or instead of deletion, would not be inappropriate (although that section could do with a better title that is outside the scope of this discussion). Thryduulf (talk) 13:15, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That section has now been renamed, so any redirect should point to 2022 Azadi March-II#Sadaf Naeem death. Thryduulf (talk) 16:40, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No evidence of non-trivial coverage in reliable sources. Of the six sources cited, four fail the verifiability guidelines: "Encyclopedia of Islam" is unclear; "Osman Turan" and "E. Merçil" give no results; and Claude Cahen wrote many books but none called 'Turks in Anatolia'. Of the remaining two, Ibn Bibi is a primary source cited without secondary justification, and Ali Öngül does not provide significant coverage. I can find no evidence for the events elsewhere; thus, the article fails WP:GNG. AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 19:58, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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

Page has been used heavily for both self-promotion and personal attack, with multiple sides repeatedly posting edits from non-neutral points of view. For example, the current article includes a "Legal Issues" section with separate sections on "strings of unpaid bills" and "failures to appear in court" for said unpaid bills, creating a duplicative issue. The page has been used as a laundry list of non-encyclopedic grievances directed toward a figure who, if she meets the notability standards of Wikipedia at all, is barely notable. In other instances, citations for some areas, such as Meyer failing to pay for investments for Dragons' Den, fail to disclose sufficient information to support the negative claim. Other claims include no citation at all, including that Ariadne Capital sold EntrepreneurCountry Global for a three million pound loss in 2016, which appears to be speculative. In addition, the page mentions Meyer's YouTube page being down, which is both not notable and also inaccurate (as of October 25, 2022, see https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFlLzUJUgt4MOAGmR2qXbIA) On the other hand, the page has also been used as a laundry list (i.e., non-encyclopedic content) of what Meyer is investing in, seemingly for purposes of self-promotion, as in the Viva Investments Partners section, which states that "VIP has direct investments in DRIVE Software Solutions Ltd, VASHI, a luxury jewelry company and Autonomous Data Collection (ADC) Limited. VIP has also invested in SPiCE VC, an Israeli fund investing in blockchain companies. Other funds include AnD Ventures, which supports Israeli technology startups, and GEM Funds, an American company supporting private investment in Opportunity Zones and real estate." Meyer's board memberships are also listed, which is not notable information. While the AfD tool is not intended to be used for cleanup, the extensive issues with this page and the tendency of the page to devolve into self-serving edit wars on both sides warrant removal to preserve neutrality on the topic. For example, previous edit logs include highly editorial comments such as "Ariadne Capital and Julie Meyer has a terrible reputation as a scam with great PR. Numerous litigation and judgement against the firm from suppliers and clients. Unverifiable investment record. Planted news articles and circular referencing" and "Removed Bluster and bullshit link as its clearly defamatory and been added to create a negative unbalanced pov," which illustrate the use of the page for confrontation, rather than for encyclopedic, informative purposes.

  • Strong keep based on the sources used in the article, including the Telegraph and a few papers from Malta. Legal issues aside, she's covered for GNG. No opinion on the wiki article used to "attack" her; a cursory glance looks ok. Some coverage recently in the Law Society Gazette, so she's still being talked about these days (legal woes/issues happened in 2017); rest is gravy. Oaktree b (talk) 19:11, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    and this wiki page was the subject of at least three articles in the press. Some issues with a PR firm. I've re-read the article, it provides sourced quotations and seems neutral in tone. They may not like what it says about her, but "don't do the crime if you can't do the time/deal with the consequences". She's been convicted and sentenced, so it's helpful to have it noted in the article as it's fact now. Oaktree b (talk) 19:17, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Noting for the record: It appears that the first AfD under this title was about a different Julie Meyer. --Finngall talk 19:19, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - My initial impression is this article may be a candidate for WP:TNT and seems to have several hallmarks of WP:NPOV-questionable writing, including clearly non-neutral language, but that may be among the least-worst problems with this article. Beccaynr (talk) 08:38, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Your own recent fireworks of micro-edits amount to an attempt to do a WP:TNT single-handedly, making prior history almost irrelevant and difficult to restore. Just saying.
    Deletion. Julie Meyer is not notable. She organises a couple of tiny investor seminars on Greek islands a year, is wanted by law enforcement in a couple of countries, and may have invested small amounts here or there. If any commercial reputation precedes her at all, it is for having sold First Tuesday at the height of the internet bubble, when people could sell hot air (and First Tuesday itself turned out to be worthless a year later). So this is not a case for WP:TNT. It's a case for deletion. There would always be shameless efforts of un-substantiated self-promotion, as there have been over the years, countered by the predictable reaction of other editors with (mostly) substantiated negative facts, followed by white-wash, and so on, back and forth and back and forth. Her only book is in the amazon.co.uk five-digit sales ranks, and not ranked or rated by amazon.com at all. All her Ariadne entities are dissolved, struck off, or otherwise defunct, having not returned any money to investors, and the companies public records show it. That's ok, it happens, but it doesn't make you a notable entrepreneur's champion or investor. The page was self-promotion from day zero, with predictable reactions. In short, a waste of time for editors on both "sides". SargeBK (talk) 11:49, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep - I edited the article to try to address unsourced and poorly-sourced information, non-neutral language, and coatrack material. Meyer appears to have written a notable book, and to have been the subject of sometimes tabloid-style coverage related to various contract disputes, and local coverage of court and regulatory proceedings in Malta. The recent suspended sentence for contempt of court has been appealed, as noted in the 2022 Bloomberg source cited in this discussion [7]. There are various brief mentions (e.g. NYT, 2000, WSJ, 2001), a profile in the BBC [8] related to her appearance on the online edition of Dragon's Den, and 2009 WSJ coverage about her post-Dragon's Den business ventures, with some interview. There is also a brief flurry of coverage in 2016-2017 related to a PR firm hired and then sued for issues related to editing the Wikipedia article. On balance, there appears to be weak support for WP:BASIC notability. Beccaynr (talk) 20:26, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's still a rail spot, now the location of a spur running to a TOFC (Tanks On Flat Cars) ramp for the Yuma Proving Ground. Earlier it was another station/siding, but even the sources in the article don't claim it to be a town, and I could find nothing else showing that either.

A post office is not a town. There were thousands which existed in isolated rail stations or even in people's homes. Mangoe (talk) 03:47, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - No evidence that this was anything more than a rail stop. If there was anything else here, there's not enough coverage to establish notability. –dlthewave 18:19, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:V and WP:GEOLAND. Without a reliable source which says that the subject (a populated place) exists, we can't have an article on it. Even if it is/was a populated place GEOLAND only gives near-automatic notability to legally recognised populated places and there isn't any evidence of legal recognition. The existence of a post office doesn't mean it was a populated place and doesn't constitute evidence of legal recognition. I can find mentions of it as a railroad structure (e.g. [9] says there was a railroad siding there) but nothing better. Hut 8.5 13:06, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Suitskvarts. It is a local TV channel, and serves Shijak, and too some limited degree, nearby areas like Durrës. In the media it is mentioned as the first private TV channel in Albania and for being closed by the government several times for things like "program piracy" [10]. In any case, one can't write more than a few sentences on Shijak TV's article. Despite having hundreads of posts on Instagram, it only has 2k followers.

This is a non-notable local elected official. She is only mayor because she is a city councilmember in a city that rotates the office of mayor annually among the councilmembers. Nearly all of the references are to The Beverly Hills Courier, a free weekly paper in her city. The page does little to establish her notability. It's largely a collection of routine or trivial actions by a typical city councilmember. She neither meets WP:POLITICIAN nor WP:GNG. On a side note, the article currently reads as a promotional page for this politician, rather than a neutral article. OCNative (talk) 13:34, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep There seems to be plenty of non-trivial coverage of her, once you add it all up. Including in Vogue. Many Beverly Hills mayors have articles on Wikipedia, and she seems to have enough press about her to qualify. Pyrrho the Skipper (talk) 16:51, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - the coverage of Bosse extends well beyond The Beverly Hills Courier. For example, I find two articles in a German paper from Berlin with one extended coverage on Bosse,[1] and a second on her 2014 interactions with the Sultan of Brunei;[2] the Los Angeles Times also regularly covers Bosse (e.g., [3]). Any concerns about tone can be edited and are not grounds for deletion (Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup). DaffodilOcean (talk) 18:16, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not sufficient to establish notability. All content must be verifiable.

  • Delete This is a company therefore WP:NCORP guidelines apply. We require references that discuss the *company* in detail. As per WP:SIRS *each* reference must meet the criteria for establishing notability, deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and containing "Independent Content" - original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. References that rely only on information provided by the company, quotations, press releases, announcements, interviews fail ORGIND. None of the references meet the criteria for establishing notability of the company, topic therefore fails WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 18:18, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not an expert of WP:NCORP in no way but -- based on what you see as weaknesses -- I've added more reliable, external sources for the citations and slightly adjusted the text where needed. Zleeczech (talk) 20:10, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. What we have here is a disagreement on whether if someone is notable, it should be kept despite problematic editing, or if promotional editing alone is a reason to delete (and/or SALT, although definitely no consensus to do the latter). It appears that enough editing has been done by established, uninvolved editors that this is somewhere between an N/C and a Keep. Given that it was trending in the latter direction per the improvements that have addressed early concerns, I have closed it as such. Whether this is the best name for Rosenberg's article is a question that can be addressed editorially and doesn't need continued discussion here since there's no realistic closure that removes the content.

Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard#Louis_Barry_Rosenberg

There is an existing COI investigation open regarding this page. Rosenberg has been historically caught doing substantial undisclosed paid promotion on Wikipedia, and the recreation of this article at a different name after the resounding consensus on the last AfD speaks volumes.

He has also been known to use sockpuppets in the past, so be aware of that. If you vote delete, consider also whether or not you think salting is appropriate given the history.

That said, there may genuinely be an argument that he passes WP:NPROF here. I'll leave that up to the masses. BrigadierG (talk) 12:09, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • It's probably unclear from my nomination where I stand on this, so I'll make it clear: Delete and salt as nominator per the extremely bad faith behaviour of creating the article under a different name intentionally to avoid attracting attention following previous WP:UPE across multiple articles, and the use of multiple sockpuppet accounts. The extremeness of the abuse overrides the very marginal claim of notability I think mostly falls afoul of WP:INHERITED. BrigadierG (talk) 17:19, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • You don't salt an article on somebody who is notable, even if the current article would get deleted based on TNT. If the bio of this notable person is to be included elsewhere, then a redirect would be needed. --Randykitty (talk) 14:19, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    • Delete I agree with Randy that he is clearly notable. But lack of notability is not the only reason for deletion. An even stronger reason is advertising, particularly self advising. This is illustrated by the contents: inclusion of his non notable self-published fiction, and very borderline notable film. As for manner of writing, I notice the excessive use of his name., characteristic of press releases and advertisements.. .This counts to me as editing in defiance of our rules, and in a manner such as to degrade wikipedia into a collection of notable puff pieces. I would alss ban as NOT HERE--he is not here to build an encyclopedia but to advertise himself. Possibly after he is removed, [[User:|]] Randykitty}} might write a proper article limited to the science and without the puffery. . DGG ( talk ) 05:32, 23 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and improve. Stellar 128 h-index, hundreds of publications and patents and many citations. I also saw that SmartSE and TJMSmith have already worked on the page and improved it significantly, and now the page does not look very promotional.

  • Keep. The article consistent with WP:BIO and WP:SIGCOV with coverage in Forbes Staff, BBC and Bloomberg. I agree that that "Writing" section is less relevant and could be shortened or removed altogether. As for concerns about COI, there is an established protocol for that, which can be implemented by any Wikipedia administrator to protect the page from vandalism, edit warring, or other disruptive edits in the future.

  • Keep and improve. He clearly passes WP:GNG and probably WP:NACADEMIC because he is getting literally thousands of annual citations in major journals.

  • Delete per Daubert standard (edit conflict destroyed my longer argument). Bearian (talk) 19:04, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I believe Bearian's reference to Daubert is that we need to "exclude the presentation of unqualified evidence". In the lead of this article, for example, there are two dubious assertions stated as fact:
    1. ...that he is a scientist. His degrees are in mechanical engineering. The only reference I have found that labels him as a scientist is his Lifeboat Foundation bio, which appears to be a c.v., and gives his title as "Chief Scientist" of his own company, Unanimous AI. As Groucho said, "Close, but no cigar."
    2. ...that "He was the Cotchett Endowed Professor of Educational Technology at the California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo from 2005 to 2011." He may have been at Cal Poly from 2005–2011(see the bio cited above), but he was not the Crotchett Professor that entire time, as his colleague Shirley Magnusson held that honor from 2004-2006, and there do not appear to be any mentions of him in official school records as to when he held the endowed professorship. A Cal Poly College of Engineering 2005-2006 Annual Report, page 17 just announces, "Other new faculty included Bently Endowed Professor Julia Wu and Assistant Professor Lou Rosenberg", and a 2007 "Top 20 under 40" article, page 32 doesn't mention the endowed professorship.
    So clearly the lead is inaccurate, and looks a lot like puffery. Every cited fact in the article needs to be checked against a RELIABLE source, and written in a paraphrase or summary that adheres to the actual facts, without exaggeration or bending toward adulation. In addition, the list of books he has self-published via one of his own companies needs to be deleted, and other extraneous non-neutral statements revised to meet WP:NPOV standards. — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 22:49, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know anything about it, but apparently it's academically-known in the physics departments of multiple universities, is used in multiple locations, including the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest particle accelerator. The article is, without a doubt, poorly-written, and definitely needs someone (who knows about this) to clean up the verbiage and make it more encyclopedic. It's me... Sallicio! 18:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This'd be fine for a WikiBook on LabVIEW programming, but there's already a Finite-state machine article describing the concept. Adam Sampson (talk) 19:24, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Adam Sampson, I don't know anything about the subject. Is the article the same thing as a Finite-state machine? Or is it a type? Is a finite-state machine to state machine as "automobile" is to "chevrolet?" If it is the latter, then it seems it would still be notable on its own. If it is the former, perhaps it would be best to merge any relevant information that is not already covered in the primary article. It's me... Sallicio! 19:59, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This article is describing how to use LabVIEW's primitives to build a simple finite state machine, so it's a worked example of what the FSM article is describing, not a different concept - programmers often just say "state machine" instead of "finite state machine". Adam Sampson (talk) 20:12, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Then it seems WP:NOTGUIDE would apply with a redirect. Someone who knows about the subject could summarize it, and place it appropriately in the primary article. It's me... Sallicio! 20:25, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    Please kindly review the newly referenced links during the discussion made by the ediotr (-Shane At Work) who is also the original party who had created the article out of interest and experience after having watched the film in which the links were believed to be legit supporting sources for the newly edited article. -Shane At Work (talk) 15:29, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Please consider relating the link(s): [1] as the characters and synopsis/plot are relatable to the experience derived from the film as the originality was purely created from my interest to expand the contribution. Requesting for a chance to keep the article for future readers' reference and that would be great. Furthermore, it has been reviewed in a blog by somebody who actually share the same perspective as the editor regarding the movie's experience, in which the storyline can be supported under the link .
    Apologies but two routine non-WP:SIGCOV databases and a blogspot review (non-WP:RS) doesn't really help with notability, still, thank you for your efforts in creating the article and working to retain it. VickKiang (talk) 20:34, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Appreciate the prompt reply, but the editor of the original does and still hope for the article's originality and rather fresh information (be it sourced or unsourced) be expanded in the future with the relevant WP:SIGCOV given the time in the future by public viewer(s) as one might believe expansion is needed for new articles that have existed in actuality from viewers' film experience and concern. -Shane At Work (talk), 4 November 2022 (UTC)
    Thank you for your reply. Could it be possible if you could demonstrate which sources pass WP:GNG or WP:NFILM, instead of unclear assertions of WP:SIGCOV? Further, while I understand that you would like other viewers who watched this film to find a relevant article on Wikipedia, that's not a convincing argument to keep the article. Many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 02:09, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for your reply. Some changes have been made to the reference - source from webpage presumably relevant as a WP:SIGCOV as there are ratings and full plot to support the article of a (non-WP:RS) such as a blogspot, but a film publisher and company. Please review the link as follows-[2]. Thank you.-Shane At Work (talk), 4 November 2022 (UTC)
    Thank you, but I remain unpersuaded on that these meet WP:GNG or WP:NFILM. The first one is a database (non-SIGCOV, per WP:NFILM, To presume notability, reliable sources should have significant coverage. Examples of coverage insufficient to fully establish notability include newspaper listings of screening times and venues, "capsule reviews", plot summaries without critical commentary, or listings in comprehensive film guides such as Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide, Time Out Film Guide, or the Internet Movie Database, I would argue that it's a IMDb-like database). Similarly, the second is also an unreliable database with a non-SIGCOV plot overview, cast listing, and linking to IMDb and Douban, two user-generated non-RS sources. I am unconvinced that these meet notability requirements and stand by my delete vote, Donaldd23 would you agree? Still, I appreciate your efforts, let's respectfully disagree and many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 05:06, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for the reply. However, i just found a site which to my surprise, is another Wikipedia, but in Chinese by which the details within further stretches the production detail, cast list, but synopsis awaited to be filled up only. Regardless of changes made or edited, still it would be nice for you to at least give this article a go since i can also relate and possibly translate the article page from English to Chinese in the future for the other Wikipedia variation of the same title? also reaching to Donaldd23 -Shane At Work (talk), 5 November 2022 (UTC)

Very interesting article, but it does not seem to pass WP:GNG. MarioGom (talk) 17:17, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thanks for the review! The article I wrote was mostly inspired by the LZ4 wiki article, I also had a look at some other pages (particularly QUAD, bzip2...). It's generally hard to find second degree references to computer software - for instance, five of the fourteen references on the LZ4 article link a primary source (the author himself), compared to three out of sixteen on the bzip3 article. I could try to look for more sources if that's desirable; I'm not that well accustomed with the project. --Dieterw1999 (talk) 17:54, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There's nothing WP:DUE to merge, and bzip2 and bzip3 are similar, but distinct things. - Aoidh (talk) 20:53, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure where undue weight comes into this. Obviously bzip2 and 3 are distinct, but they are also closely-enough-related topics that we can choose to write about them together if we like. I'm quite sure that if someone had boldly done what I propose (making bzip an article about all generations of bzip, including the bzip3 content) instead of creating bzip3 this wouldn't be at AfD. Thparkth (talk) 21:33, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Undue weight comes into this because within the context of bzip2, there are no reliable sources discussing bzip3, it is not relevant to bzip2 in any way, and no reliable sources support the idea that it is. It is a different implementation of the Burrows–Wheeler transform and has a similar name but is not the same program, is not a continuation of or successor to bzip2. I have to very strongly oppose any effort to make a "list of programs called bzip" which is all such an article would be. bzip2 exists as an article because it is notable, whereas bzip3 is not (I don't know whether bzip is notable but I can only assume it is not). Given the complete lack of reliable sources discussing this article's subject, there is nothing worth merging, especially into a different but similarly named article when it's not relevant to that article. - Aoidh (talk) 21:50, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Whether the topics should be combined into a single article is an editorial choice. There is no WP:DUE issue here. Bzip3 is not an alternative viewpoint compared to bzip2. Thparkth (talk) 22:57, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
An article should not give undue weight to minor aspects of its subject but should strive to treat each aspect with a weight proportional to its treatment in the body of reliable, published material on the subject. Given that bzip3 isn't even an aspect of bzip2, the amount of information the bzip2 article should dedicate to this marginally-related subject is exactly same as its prominence in reliable sources: zero. - Aoidh (talk) 00:26, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I oppose a merge, as bzip3 is unrelated to bzip2. The bzip2 toolis a long running and established active project which is widely used. The bzip3 project is new, has an entirely different team, and is only related to bzip2 in that the design goal was to outperform bzip2. The name of the bzip3 project is kind of a name hijack. --Mvqr (talk) 12:51, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or otherwise move out of article space, without prejudice against bringing it back if it catches on. Right now, it's WP:TOOSOON. I also second Mvqr's argument against merging. 3mi1y (talk) 07:52, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Honey Ojukwu is not notable. I suspect this article is a paid job because the page creator accepted the fact he has a Conflict of interest and paid editing works before appealing for an unblock. None of the awards has she won or being nominated are notable. Her references could also be from a conflict of interest with the way the headlines are written because she’s also a media person. It’s a suspect that her mission is to get verified on instagram and Twitter using wikipedia as a reference and that is why she stated her Wikipedia link on her instagram and Twitter profile here https://instagram.com/honeyojukwu and here https://twitter.com/theradiolioness .

    To those uncreated wiki pages you linked on her articles. If they were already in existence would have been a good reason for a keep that she has worked in Notable radio stations but still doesn’t still makes her notable because their a lot of OAP as well like her who ain’t known but working for Notable radio stations, that doesn’t makes them suitable to be on Wikipedia. Not all radio stations are notable and that could be the reason they haven’t been created. So linking an uncreated page on her article I don’t think that adds any useful contribution to be keep. The uncreated page Nigeria Music Choice Awards, I just checked on Google and I can’t find any good source proving that the award is notable or either suitable to be on Wikipedia. When talking about Nigerian Notable OAP’s and sources not related to them, Honey Ojukwu is no where to Do2tun, Toolz, Toke Makinwa and so on.

This subject is a religious tradition with a fairly weak notability case, appearing almost exclusively on religious websites and with only passing mentions in independent reliable sources. References in reputably published books or scholarly texts are scant. Non-trivial coverage appears hard to come by in independent (emphasis on that again), reliable, secondary sources. The volume of academic mentions (just two on Google Scholar) does not suggest it is particularly significant from a historical or religious perspective, whether in relation to the events it is said to be about, or for eschatological purposes. Iskandar323 (talk) 12:36, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This is an article about an legend concerning the destruction of the second temple in Jerusalem, itself an historical fact. The story was published some 1500 years ago and the original text is in print and available online in the original and in translation. The article does not assert historical accuracy to the story, nor is there any miracle involved. There is nothing controversial here. The story is widely cited as a parable of the dangers of baseless hatred and is covered in the Jewish Encyclopedia and several other referenced sources, including an article in Psychiatric Times. Indeed a Google search on the article title produces some 7 pages of relevant links. WP:INDEPENDENT summarizes "Independent sources are distinguished by their lack of any direct influence with the subjects involved." There is no possibility that any of the modern texts have a connection to the original author(s) from a millennium and a half ago.--agr (talk) 17:47, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The nomination is not related to the parable being fictitious, which is somewhat needless to say. It was merely based on the limited non-trivial sourcing. Nevertheless, a hat-tip to you for your expansion on the sourcing, furnishing of the page with inline citations and, in particular, finding of the Jewish Encyclopedia entry, which is the most solid source so far. Iskandar323 (talk) 18:39, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    "The nomination is not related to the parable being fictitious, which is somewhat needless to say." Except that when you prodded the article you wrote "The subject is a fictional tale of tenuous notability...".
    To be frank, you seem to have difficulty with understanding the concepts of notability and independence as applied to Jewish religious subjects.

    • Parramatta is a large city in Western Sydney. The correct terms are "council" or "local government area." Local government figures rarely get Wikipedia articles. The only 21st century local gov councillor in NSW I can think of that has a Wikipedia article is Clover Moore, and she's been the Lord Mayor of Sydney for the last 20 years, plus formerly a state politician as well. (Barring councillors that have gone on to be state politicians and vice versa.) No Parramatta councillors (or Western Sydney councillors more generally) have ever gotten a Wikipedia page to my knowledge, I don't see why Ms. Wearne would be an exception hence my nom. She is not particularly notable at all, based on a Google Scholar search, news search, or my uni's lib search.. J2m5 (talk) 07:07, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - J2m5's comment about Clover Moore being the only councillor with a Wikipedia page is not correct, any search of the categories of councillors would show there are plenty of such people with pages. Regardless of notability or not, in this case there is a clear and appropriate alternative to deletion that ought to be followed, which is a Redirect to List of mayors and lord mayors of Parramatta. Deus et lex (talk) 10:30, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Please do not misrepresent statements I have made by oversimplifying. I never said that "Clover Moore was the only councillor with a Wikipedia page." Granted though, I did not do the justice of looking at other examples of councillors which have Wikipedia pages, because in my view this article at its most basic level fails Wikipedia:Notability as it fails to have any accepted independent media sources. Based on my (limited) understanding of the Wikipedia notability guidelines, whether Wikipedia covers politicians who do not have national-level or provincial-level offices is entirely up to whether academia or journalism has written about the person, such coverage confirming if they are notable (based on my reading of WP:NPOL.) In any case, the vast majority of 21st century councillors on the "New South Wales local councillors" category are people who went on to take roles in state and federal politics. The exceptions to this are politically important mayors or community activists as judged by the multiple media sources proving their notability to Wikipedia, for instance Frank Carbone or Margaret Henry. Lorraine Wearne fails this test. Redirecting the article to the aforementioned list should mean that other lord mayors have the same treatment. J2m5 (talk) 07:09, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Pepin Garcia, the maker.

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

This "populated place" does not meet GEOLAND or GNG, and assertions to the contrary in the previous AfD are based on a misunderstanding of the actual guideline. The article conflates three separate things, none of which are populated places or otherwise notable:

  • Angell Grazing Allotment: This is simply a USFS cattle grazing area.
  • Angell Focus: This is a Hohokam cultural group that lived in the area, but the source does not indicate a specific settlement at this location.
  • Angell railroad siding: Newspapers mention this only in the context of a railroad watering/maintenance stop. There is no evidence that this was considered a populated place, and it doesn't have sufficient coverage to meet GNG.

Other arguments include the fact that Angell appears on current and historic official maps. However, WP:NGEO explicitly excludes maps when considering notability; appearance on a map does not constitute "legal recognition"; and as we've found countless times they are often either mistaken or are actually showing a landmark rather than a settlement. This appears to be yet another GNIS error, as no other source calls this a populated place. –dlthewave 04:27, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I can't find anything to verify the Grammy nominations. In addition to the search metnioned by onel5969 above, I don't see this band mentioned in any of the Wikipedia articles listing the nominees in each Grammy jazz category (for example, Grammy Award for Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album; I checked all the other jazz category articles, too). The article claims that they received a Grammy nomination in 1996 for a 1994 album, which is possible because the eligibility year ran from Oct. 1, 1994 to Sept. 30, 1995. But I found the list of all the Grammy nominees in Billboard magazine (Jan. 13 and 20, 1996), and the only "Dallas" nominated for anything that year was songwriter/producer Dallas Austin. The source cited for the 1996 Grammy nomination is an obituary, published five years after the fact, in a different country; it's possible that this was an error or misunderstanding on the part of the writer. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:47, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominator was correct that the article was completely unsourced for too long – which meant it had inherent copvio problems and quality issues – and it was indeed very difficult to sort through numerous article mentions and concert listings, etc., to find the in-depth coverage. 4meter4 was correct that key pieces of coverage turned out to be only accessible to those with subscriber access to certain Texas publications. As both Onel5969 and Metropolitan90 flagged, the Grammy Award nomination was unverifiable and is probably untrue; this is now noted in the Notes section of the article. Kleebis007 managed to find what is actually the most comprehensive, in-depth coverage in the history of the Dallas Jazz Orchestra (which turned out to be paywalled). Anyway, in order of importance, the key pieces of SIGCOV are as follows: the 1998 Dallas Morning News article, "Passion for jazz burns bright as orchestra begins 25th year" (paywalled; link is to abstract on ProQuest); the 2009 article in The Wichita Eagle; the 1976 album review including some band history in D Magazine; and the 1996 Abilene Reporter-News article on Dr. Jazz, which includes several paragraphs about his involvement in the DJO. There are several other sources cited within the article which contribute to notability as well. Kudos to all. Cielquiparle (talk) 12:18, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • KEEP in view of the almost complete re-write of the article since this AfD was started. Sources that nail down SIGCOV were located behind paywalls and added. Joyous! | Talk 17:39, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:BAND and improved/updated sourcing, meets WP:GNG. In addition to The Wichita Eagle, The Dallas Morning News and Galveston Daily News sources both also seem to be reliable and in-depth coverage of the organization. Dylnuge (TalkEdits) 00:08, 8 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Topo maps show "Achi (site)" at this location, but the closest search results I could find were newspaper articles about an ancient Hohokam village called "Gu Achi". The "Achi" name is not in use and is an unlikely search term, so a redirect is inappropriate. –dlthewave 03:56, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This discussion is not a vote. While many claims there were made about how many sources cover article subject in detail, and many sources were presented, all of them (except one) were challenged as not being independent, or not covering article subject enough to meet GNG. Only one independent secondary source worth discussing was presented so far - https://www.radiosvoboda.org/a/28167484.html . Participants are welcomed to discuss the reliability of a blogger from that article, and if it is enough to meet GNG. Manyareasexpert (talk) 11:59, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Better served by a category than a list. Now that Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Farm to Market Roads in Texas (1–99) has closed as keep, we don't need two sets of lists for the same roads (and this set of lists predates the mass merges that created those lists). Also, these regions are arbitrarily defined. Rschen7754 03:24, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This a rail spot, the middle of a long stretch of sidings. There is nothing else nearby. The post office mentioned in the article is nowhere near here; it is at the northeast corner of Kingman, some nine miles away, and it is actually named "Hualapai", that being the modern spelling of apparently the whole area.

The "Stockton Mine" that appears in the oldest topos is readily verifiable; the "Stockton" that appears next to it starting in the 1960s is not. I can find no reference to a town here except a ghosttowns.com article which says almost nothing, not that they are a reliable source anyway. Mangoe (talk) 02:12, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The ghosttowns.com article does say it had a post office, but I want through every entry on the Mojave County Post Office Site Records (found via USPS) from that time and did not see Stockton anywhere. It does have a RoadsideThoughts page, but similarly to HometownLocator, it just seems to regurgitate GNIS data (thus not notable on it's own). This grazing info page mentions that there is a 'Stockton Hill Ranch' and mentions Stockton as a 'ghost town'. Nothing specifically on the settlement itself, though, so I think I'd support a deletion. BhamBoi (talk) 06:18, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Taking this to AFD as PROD is contested. In my opinion, this article failed WP:CORPDEPTH. All of the references are pointing out to the notability of houses that they are selling, but there are no in-depth coverage of the company itself. The houses that they are selling or the people that bought using their services might be notable, but in my opinion their notability should not be inherited to the company per WP:INHERITED. In the articles, their company are only mentioned in passing, and none of them are in-depth coverage. Thank you. ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 01:44, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article about a musical project, not properly referenced as passing WP:NMUSIC. The article literally just says that it exists, the end, without even trying to quantify any sort of claim that they would pass our notability criteria for musicians -- and the sole source is their directory entry on Discogs.com, which is not a notability-clinching source in the absence of WP:GNG-worthy media coverage. And the worst part is that the article has looked like this since 2011 without ever seeing any discernible improvement. Bearcat (talk) 00:47, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

He competed at the 1984 Summer Olympics but did not win a medal. He is the father of Chloe Esposito and Max Esposito but that isn't sufficient by itself to show notability. A WP:BEFORE search didn't bring up enough sources to pass WP:GNG. Suonii180 (talk) 00:16, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Completely unsourced article about a band with at best questionable claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The notability claim here involves a listed but unsourced award claim, without clarifying whether they won it or were just nominated for it, and otherwise the article just states that the band's music existed -- and even the award is of such debatable notability that 28th GMA Dove Awards (the 1997 ceremony at which this was presumably, but unsourcedly, relevant) is literally just a primary-sourced "ceremony happened, the end" stub without listing even one winner or nominee either, which means it doesn't constitute an unambiguously clear pass of NMUSIC #8 absent proper sourcing. So no prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can write and source something significantly better than this, but nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to absolve them of having to have any actual sourcing.

@Devonian Wombat: If their concern is violations of WP:V and WP:NOR (criteria 6 or 7 of WP:DEL-REASON, which I disagree are applicable here), I've added a couple of refs, mostly from Billboard (magazine), which is definitely RS. Not are are necessarily WP:SIGCOV to me, but IMHO this probably passes WP:NBAND criteria 8, and someone else could expand the article in the future as I don't have access to the full PDFs. Nevertheless, IMO WP:V and WP:NOR concerns should be addressed now. Many thanks! VickKiang (talk) 23:30, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
