No evidence that this is a notable list topic (individual entries may have gotten a mention), i.e. that the VFA or VFL wooden spoon is a topic that on its own has gotten significant attention from reliable independent sources. Fram (talk) 08:14, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

- Why did you include AFL in that search? That seriously skews the results of course. This list is only about the VFA / VFL, not about the AFL as a whole. Fram (talk) 10:22, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

- Probably delete, although ideally I'd like to hear from Asperix first. Although the article lists a decent number of references, they all seem to merely mention that e.g. Aspley "claimed the wooden spoon" in 2021, without actually discussing the topic of VFA/VFL wooden spoons. The list therefore seems to fail WP:LISTN, and there doesn't seem to be another list purpose the page would fulfil. – Teratix ₵ 09:27, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

First PROD'd in 2006 for failing to meet standards of notability and being promotional, I think this "contributing faculty member" (I'm not sure what that means) fails both WP:PROF and WP:AUTHOR. In a search, I found other James Herndons more notable than him and even searches for "James N. Herndon" turned up more mentions for a dentist by this name than for this media psychologist.

I don't often send college articles to AfD but this seemed like a clear candidate. I was going to draftify but a near-identical version already sits there (created by the same user). I'm not seeing sufficient coverage for WP:NORG, in particular WP:ORGDEPTH is not met as the coverage that I can find is just listings in Outlook India or a mention in a Brand Connect post in Forbes India which also fails WP:ORGIND. Also note that Google Books had nothing of substance and I'm not convinced by my ProQuest search either. I did find this article but it reads more like an advert for the school rather than independent journalism! I might be wrong, though.
Draft:Poddar International College can stay but the mainspace article should be deleted unless clear NORG coverage can be demonstrated. Spiderone 20:40, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

The result was no consensus. There's reasonable arguments on both sides here. Some source material has been provided; it appears to be neither strong enough to render the "delete" arguments inconsequential, nor poor enough to obviate the "keep"s. Vanamonde (Talk) 04:14, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose. First, the nominator for deletion blanked the article altogether with the edit summary
redirect to only incident which he is notorious for
, instead redirecting it to Al Columbia, who is patently not related to the article nor to Pawłokoma. I hope the nominator recognises that error. - Referring to the article itself, Biss played a central role in the Pawłokoma massacre, which itself is notable (but which article is a stub). Per WP:BLP1E, the article should be deleted if a person is known for one event, is otherwise WP:LOWPROFILE and his role in the event was minor or tangential. The thing is, the point 3 is not satisfied - he was central to the event.
- The problem here is not that Biss only has one source that describes him but that there are few people who can read both Polish and Ukrainian, have access to the books and want to expand it. The sources are in fact rather plentiful , just no one bothered to use them yet. The article needs substantial work, but it clearly belongs here, at least for so long as the Pawłokoma article itself is not expanded. If it had been, we could have probably talked about merging, but given the dismal state of the Pawłokoma massacre article (which should be larger), the article should stay. Szmenderowiecki (talk) 14:32, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

- Google in Canada doesn't work the same way as it does in Poland, or even across users, which I've already seen elsewhere in discussions (Google should know better - Ukrainian Canadians are quite plentiful in Prairie provinces, and among these some speak Ukrainian; though again I can't rule out Google serving different content based on the province you live in). Besides, it's fairly strange that a query in Ukrainian returns you a false positive publication in Dutch (it finds repeated instances of "biss."). But anyway, you've got the titles above, you can search among these. They have each talk a paragraph or two about him, out of which we can make a small but a meaningful entry. As has been said, Ukrainian sources were not considered but that's because Google serves me Polish entries for Ukrainian queries. Szmenderowiecki (talk) 18:23, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

- My point is not what we are trying to reference, but that the sources are there. People simply didn't bother to reach them. Since multiple independent and reliable sources talk about him (and I've only taken Polish-language books), it squarely meets WP:GNG. Szmenderowiecki (talk) 21:51, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
- No, there are not. Your source number 3 - Grzegorz Rąkowski, Ziemia lwowska (2005) is another tour guide.

Keep. Biss is notable not only for his genocidal killings of Ukrainian civilians, but also for his extensive banditry after the war.

- Comment With the Juno nomination, I expected to find something about them. Tried limiting my search to .CA websites... I can't even verify what/when/if they were nominated for the award. Leaning non-notable. Oaktree b (talk) 19:34, 17 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete - The article appears to be an attempted promotion. Like the previous commenter, I can find no direct verification of their supposed Juno award; I suspect that the award was won by a song they produced or wrote and not by themselves. They have a fair number of credits attached to other people's works, but it appears that they have not graduated from lists of credits to significant coverage on their own. They're active behind-the-scenes guys but alas, too many steps away from their own notability. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:25, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

- Keep There is plenty of coverage; five minutes of searching reveals a plethora of sourcing in English (I've not looked in the Kannada language media). Furthermore, leaving aside its status as an essay, WP:TOOSOON does not operate as a blanket ban on articles on future events; NB WP:CHRYSTAL: "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place." This format of "Next XXXX election" is standard in dealing with regular elections which have a unspecified cycle; given the 70+ year history of regular elections in the state, the available sourcing and the timeframe, these are safe, reasonable grounds for an article on an election due within 15 months.

- Delete While they may not be completely authoritative, the notability criteria at WPPhotography show that the subject, with the sources presented, is not notable. Neither of the books cited seems to be dedicated solely/mainly to his work or has "received critical attention" and he does not appear in any of the databases listed. It could be debated whether the Beck Isle Museum is "prominent", and they do have a large collection of his work , but it still seems as if he only had local significance/coverage. If someone is able to visit the museum mentioned here and gather more information, I would certainly be willing to reconsider, but for the time being there seems to be only one (local) source to count towards notability.

- Keep or Merge. I added two English language sources after this was nominated so everything there is now verifiable. There is a suggestion of notability for the documentary film juxtaposition of found propaganda footage with drawings from concentration camp artists independent of the propaganda film itself. However, these sources alone are not the most extensive coverage though there is almost certainly more in Czech, as the mention of a contemporaneous newspaper interview and coverage attests. If merged, an argument could be made for either Terezín_concentration_camp#Legacy or Theresienstadt_(film)#Historiography with my preference for the former. 68.189.242.116 (talk) 18:18, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

Then various editors removed more of the promotion, resulting in, well not much. Certainly not enough to justify two articles, so I would say remove this one or redirect it to Apache Ignite.

There has been significant conversation as to this association's notability on the article talk for years, but consensus was never clear. Especially with changing notability guidelines since this article was created, it's time for a conversation. While i can find them mentioned in articles "according to..." and their research is occasionally cited, it isn't cited frequently enough to meet any guidelines there, and sourcing is well short of CORPDEPTH significance to meet the GNG.

Advertorialized WP:BLP of a musician, not reliably sourced as passing WP:NMUSIC. As always, musicians are not automatically entitled to have Misplaced Pages articles just because it's possible to verify that they exist -- the notability test requires them to pass one or more achievement-based criteria, and to have media coverage independent of their own self-published marketing bumf. But the referencing here is almost entirely of the "music metaverifying its own existence on Spotify, Apple Music, CD Baby or YouTube" variety, except for one citation to a WordPress blog, with not even one reference to a real, reliable or notability-building media outlet shown at all. Nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be referenced much, much better than this. Bearcat (talk) 15:29, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

- Leaning keep. It's worth noting that there is an unexplored commercial angle, as there are numerous versions of the item that can be bought, ranging from cheap plastic children's toys to efforts to make a realistic metal sword. BD2412 T 18:27, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- Keep This both a fictional item and a toy. Both their histories and some of their impact are described based, at least in part, on secondary sources. There may be a little too much plot-information, but we do have a full article here. So under which critereon is there "Certainly not enough coverage to have it's own article"? In addition to the commercial angle pointed out by BD2412, there's also a psychological angle as appears in this academic paper and this PhD thesis, though I cannot see how extensive that is, seeing only previews. This also has a bit more to say on the sword. Daranios (talk) 20:05, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- Here is a a regularly-published book on the franchise with extensive discussion of the item. BD2412 T 20:33, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Daranios Uh, I downloaded the paper (through LibGen) and I don't think it even mentions "power sword". The very word sword appears in it three times, the best I see is a single sentence where the "ever-present sword" is listed in passing as one of the "phallic" elements of the show. Likewise, the mention in the PhD thesis is passing, the sword was one of several toys used in some experiment and is not discussed or even introduced. The third paper has a sentence that states (in the context of He-Man never hurting living creatures) that "Throughout all 130 episodes of the original cartoon, He-Man’s The Power Sword was only used for blocking other weapons, blocking laser blasts, and removing obstacles and he never even punched anyone (robots don’t count)". That's it. Now, the book. Page 31 offers a short plot summary: "Another element brought about early on was the Power Sword, though it would evolve over the next two years, as well. It was introduced as a “key” to Castle Grayskull, needed to open the great drawbridge of the skull’s mouth and access the great powers inside. To protect the castle, the Goddess split the Power Sword in two and scattered those pieces across Eternia. Only when they were united could someone gain entrance and become a master of the universal power kept within." and bit about the relevant toy "The multiple versions of the Power Sword are easily explainable by the realities of these first action figures: the swords that most characters were packaged with all looked like that. The tiny swords were made to fit together like in the stories. The thinness of each one’s plastic led them to curve from heat and regular play." There are a few mentions throughout the rest of the text but in the context of passing and trivial plot summaries (ex. p. 61 " The two battle it out, the Power Sword countering every spell the villain summons.", p. 63 "Atop Castle Grayskull, He- Man raises the Power Sword and says...", or p. 163 "He-Man dives after his father, and the two manage to stop their decent by jamming the Power Sword into the rock wall."). Page 94 in the context of this live action adaptation, I think, informs us that "The Power Sword prop was large and unwieldy, nicknamed “The Buick Slayer”" and there are a few sentences about how he actor trained with the mock up broadsword. Page 152 tells us, in the context of some new Mattel-related He-Man, that "The Power Sword went through a redesign to include a green laser blade.". That's it, I checked each and every one of the 90+ mentions of the word sword in this book (I love Z-library...). I am afraid this is very much not enough if these are the best sources we can find (given nobody else has anything, and the article still has zero reception/significance). If someone cares, maybe something from the sources I analyzed above could be merged somewhere, but just as I concluded in the last AfD, this toy is simply not notable enough for a stand-alone article. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:23, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: For Toying with Identity, and Children an Agressive Toys, that my be it, I can only see the previews. What was the result of the experiment in the latter? The preview of Masters of the Universe: Children's Toys as Reflections on Contemporary Psychoanalytic Theory contains "...conferred upon Prince Adam the capacity to become transformed into He-Man. All he must do is lift his sword high in the air and shout, “By the power of Greyskull.” Prince Adam, now the mighty He-Man...". So it talks about our sword here, even if it does not use the name. An identification of it as a phallic element may be good only for one sentence of analysis, but there it is. We have two sentences about how popular the toy was, a reception of sorts. And if we look at everything currently based on secondary sources in the article, we have several paragraphs of material, including plot-summary, but also history of the toy and publication history of the fictional item. So taking everything together, like for Jclemens, that's enough for me, even if it does not amount to a stellar article. Daranios (talk) 18:48, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- You can't cobble the appearance of WP:SIGCOV from two or three mentions in passing... Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 19:05, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Piotrus: Well, if the argument is amount of coverage: We have an article of several paragraphs, and this would remain the case even if we cut out the unreferenced (i.e. based on primary sources) parts. That's what WP:WHYN requires in that regard. Daranios (talk) 08:14, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

- How He-Man Mastered the Universe supports about six sentences beyond plot-summary in the current version of the article. These are a bit of thought behind the sword, but mostly the toy's history. Everything else currently there is shorter. But, as usual, WP:GNG does not say that significant coverage needs to be done with any one specific source. In my opinion, it just has to exist in total.

TIA. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:25, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- I hadn't, but I see your source analysis and find that's still enough to be non-trivial coverage in multiple, independent, reliable sources. Sure, more would be nice, but again, we're dealing with a pre-Internet TV show here. Jclemens (talk) 17:28, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Keep if it’s had sufficient cultural impact to have a toy line it’s had sufficient cultural impact to have a Misplaced Pages article. Artw (talk) 17:27, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Toy lines don't have any bearing on notability if sources haven't troubled to take note of the topic in question, and the sourcing here is very limited. At most there is the coverage of the toy line itself which Daranios mentioned, but that doesn't seem substantive or sustained enough, and, if Piotr's analysis is right (it's the only detailed one as of yet), any real-world coverage this fictional sword has appears to be limited to trivial mentions. A sum of failures of SIGCOV do not make one success of it, so I guess I would support redirecting for now, however unlikely this will happen at this stage. Avilich (talk) 21:52, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
- Merge to He-Man and/or other related articles. Yes, there is coverage, but it is mostly not about the sword as such (as a fictional item or as a toy), but about the He-Man character, his series and the merchandising for it, of which the sword is but one element. An item with the cultural prominence of Excalibur this is certainly not. It should be covered, per WP:DUE, in the context of the show and its characters. Sandstein 10:50, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
- Comment Has the Sword of Protection actually been included in the WP:BEFORE search? It gives a number of hits. Now I assume that many of them are plot summary, but it would be the duty of the nominator to check that. At the least this paper discusses the symbolism of the sword, especially of its destruction at one point. Daranios (talk) 14:28, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
- That's just more sourcing that doesn't discuss a sword independently of the character. The symbolism of that sword to She-Ra belongs in She-Ra's article. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:37, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
- @ScottishFinnishRadish: I can partially agree, it's possible to use that to discuss the sword as such and it's symbolism, or to discuss it at She-Ra. However, why are we then discussing deletion here rather than split, merge and redirect? I would be fine with that as an alternative to keeping the article, if relevant information that is not yet in the three target articles were to be preserved, and if the merge would come before the redirect. I don't see simply removing what has been gathered here either by deletion or redirection in the hope that someone will re-research it elsewhere or merge it later as a good way to go. As I am not exactly in the position to set conditions, I'll stay with my keep opinion (and I still see a stand-alone article as an effective solution), because alternatives could be solved in a clean-up afterwards at any time.

- Strong Delete — NACTOR requires significant roles in multiple movies or TV series, The actor is predominantly known for their “bit part roles” in both the movie titled “King of Boys” (the movie), and King of Boys (the TV series), of which in both movie and TV series they weren’t the lead role, they weren’t supporting actor, their roles are honestly best described as “bit part” . Furthermore they haven’t been given any prestigious awards for their acting, i am indeed doubtful they have ever received and prestigious award. I’d like to see the input of the article creator who removed the prod on the article, citing that NACTOR is met, I’d love to hear their rationale as how this is so. Celestina007 (talk) 03:03, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- Hey, no need to bite or sound so angry. Now, I'm not the author of the article or the one who removed the prod, but glancing at the article and a few of its sources, I can see an argument that WP:GNG may have been met, as surprisingly, there are multiple articles listed expressly about this person in the role you labeled as a bit part. Even if WP:NACTOR is not met, WP:GNG would trump. The question I have though, is whether the sources are RELIABLE sources. I have no idea about the reliability or relevance of any of these sources. Could you (or someone) assess that? Fieari (talk) 04:31, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- Fieari, could you please retract your aspersions? I consider aspersions a personal attack, you accused me of BITING when I have been nothing but civil with the editor who created this article, please which part of what I just said above is “Biting” ? I made factual statements which are all corroborated easily. In-fact look at our civil conversation I am very much offended by your aspersions against me, furthermore you stated that I “sounded angry”, which i found strange as “tone” can’t be interpreted over text, i was literally relaxed & laying on my sofa without an iota of anger or frustration when making those comments. I’m offended by this aspersions because I put in very conscious efforts to be polite and simultaneously precise/concise when interacting with my co-editors, Please can you be so gracious as to retract your aspersions or in the very least apologize, for assuming wrongly?

- Strong Keep — NACTOR also requires significant roles in multiple TV series or other productions. The actor is also a producer. According to "NACTOR", he must have had significant roles in multiple productions, which includes, his production for Africa Magic, reality show "Nigerian Idol", and Africa Magic television series "Hustle", starring Sola Sobowale. A reliable source from Vanguard Nigeria, confirms the statement above. I believe with this, NACTOR is met.--Afí-afeti (talk) 12:05, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- Comment — This is to note that the editor above is the article creator. They produced this Vanguard source which is unreliable as the byline is missing “the staff reporter” which invariably means we are dealing with an opinion piece which we do not consider reliable. Generally, when dealing with articles on business people, organizations or entertainers or any topic area which may be prone to less than ethical practices, we want to see reliable sources being optimized. Can this reliable sources be brought here for thorough analysis? In the very least at least three good sources that satisfy WP:RS & are in accordance with WP:GNG I’m afraid, If not, it is my opinion that this is a NACTOR fail. Celestina007 (talk) 20:21, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- Keep with no prejudice toward the nom as this is a very close call. He appears to have a regular role on a notable show but the debate above is about NACTOR and needing multiple notable roles by that guideline, with the rebuttal that he's been a producer in other things. So I'm left with looking at the broader general notability guidelines and there I find that this article's subject has himself been the non-trivial subject of multiple (in this case exactly 2) reliable secondary sources, the Guardian and Vanguard. So he only barely passes general notability, but a D is indeed a passing grade. -Markeer 23:42, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- Comment — Markeer, Hello MKR, as stated on my TP that I wouldn’t comment here except expressly pinged, I’ve been deeply troubled since I made that statement(I would expatiate on this below) the apple of discord here is for any editor to bring forward sources, please can you be so kind as to show me the sources you found, the truth is, In as much as I try to ignore this AFD or comment any further, I have this huge feeling of guilt that an article that falls short of both NACTOR & GNG would be retained on mainspace due to honest mistakes on the part of editors unfamiliar with Nigerian sources(I am an expert on this) I am troubled because as a Nigerian(well I’ve lived here for 20+ years now) & I know as a matter of fact that the subject we are currently discussing doesn’t satisfy both NACTOR and GNG, MKR, I would be extremely grateful if you can show me the sources you found so I can do a source analysis. This isn’t an attempt to make you change your !vote, no, rather it is an attempt for me to do a source analysis on the sources you found and if you stick with your !vote that is indeed your prerogative and I would speak no more, all I’m begging for at the moment is a chance to do a analysis for you on sources you said you saw and as aforementioned if you stick to your !vote, in the spirit of consensus I would bow out, all I’m asking for from you or any editor to bring all the sources that substantiate their notability & as aforementioned, a chance to do a source analysis for everyone to see, I would draw up a source analysis table and assess each source presented. Celestina007 (talk) 22:03, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
- Celestina007, I published the article on mainspace, you moved it to draft in quote, you stated "Not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources." I obliged to that, by making sure it was rewritten, please note: The interviews questions, are independent of the subject, to help establish notability. Without the series of questions, no media house in Nigeria or the world can successfully write an article independent of the subject, without the help of these interviews, which are been published by reliable sources. Also, I will love to bring to your attention, the article was submitted through AfC for review as requested by you. As Markeer stated above, I'm also bringing to your attention, the AfD was nominated for failing the requirements of "WP:NACTOR", this is the debate. It all said, it clearly meets this. In WP:Interviews, it states "it is okay to sparingly use interviews to source some facts", this was what I did in the article. Remember the article is a "Stub". WP:Interviews are accepted for WP:GNG, if only it been published by a reliable source.--Afí-afeti (talk) 06:22, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
- @“Afí-afeti, First of all this comment by you: “The interviews questions, are independent of the subject, to help establish notability. Without the series of questions, no media house in Nigeria or the world can successfully write an article independent of the subject” is not supported by any policy here, and generally isn’t a factual statement, investigative journalism would be in variance with that wrong assertion. Let’s keep that aside, & focus on policy; GNG requires independence from the subject & Interviews are not independent of the subject thus they do not meet GNG, they can be used to verify certain trivial facts just as how WP:VENDOR's work, but it can’t be used to substantiate major notability claims, and this is also stated in Misplaced Pages:Interviews, please see this information. Lastly, I didn’t state "Not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources." that is auto generated message, although my draftification generated it. As I said in my TP and here also, I do not want to bludgeon, and would only return if I was pinged to do a source analysis, i was pinged & I have done a source analysis. The rest is left for the community to decide, my work here is done. Celestina007 (talk) 19:19, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

- Source Check Request - @Celestina007: I don't think there's any need to bow out of commenting on this AfD... we're all here to build an encyclopedia, I think we're all okay now, and I believe your insight would be valuable. I see on your user page that Nigerian sources can be... complicated... with regards to reliability. Could I formally ask you to review the other sources on this page in this light? Specifically:
- PM News Nigeria - If (and only if) this is a reliable source, this is a strong indicator of WP:GNG as it is an article expressly about the actor in question in far more than a passing mention. It also has a byline, unlike the vanguard source you checked above.
- The Guardian - This is a similar kind of article as the PM News one, expressly about the subject in detail. It has a byline.
- Daily Trust (archived) - Another interview article with a byline as above.
- Bella Naija - I think I can already see just by looking at it that this isn't a reliable source.
- I'm not claiming that I think these are reliable sources, I'm asking... are they? How can we tell? Thank you. Fieari (talk) 00:11, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
- Fieari, great. you have cited 4 sources and I’d analyze them accordingly, let me start by referencing the first source briefly before we delve into the crux of analysis, now, contrary to what you think, it is indeed a reliable source but that piece is unreliable, let’s begin the analysis, first source is credible but an unreliable piece, because it is literally based on an interview on a different platform, a portion of that piece reads Speaking with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu in a recent interview, the piece literally relied on an interview, and interviews aren’t independent of the subject thus doesn’t count towards notability the second source is is at best now a WP:QS, see one of the reasons here and even worse still, it is an interview thus doesn’t count towards notability as it isn’t independent of the subject which is required by WP:GNG. the third archived source is an interview thus can’t count towards notability as it isn’t independent of the subject. GNG requires in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject, and that piece falls short of the standard requirement. As for the fourth and final source, you are apt. it is a gossip blog which is pretty much self published, lacks editorial oversight and has no reputation for fact checking, a huge fail of RS. Celestina007 (talk) 01:07, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
- Are interviews really excluded from establishing notability? There's editorial control over who they interview, after all. The selection of questions, the editing, and the context they provide all seem like things that could establish notability. Fieari (talk) 01:38, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
- Fieari, GNG requires in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of a subject, an interview is not independent of the subject thus is in variance with a core aspect of what constitutes notability as detailed in WP:GNG which requires absolute "independence" Do you get the drift? An interview is not independent in the sense that the editorial is publishing a literal interaction with the subject. Having said, let me expressly state that interviews are not without use, You see, Interviews are treated in the same manner we treat primary sources, that is, they can be used to verify information that is relatively trivial such as age, full name, college attended and things along those lines, they however do not count towards notability but only serve predominantly to satisfy WP:V When it comes to claims of notability we discard primary sources and employ or make use use of WP:IS. Furthermore to comprehend what I’m saying better look at Misplaced Pages:Interviews. Like I stated, elsewhere I wouldn’t bludgeon the the AFD process, and except I was pinged to do a source analysis I wouldn’t comment anymore. I believe I have just done so, thus my work here is done. I did this analysis not to make you change your mind nor that of anyone else but to show everyone that the sources are very unreliable in this context. If you need me to expatiate please ping me. On a lighter note, Did you ask how I can tell reliable sources from unreliable sources? Barkeep49 was my tutor at NPP academy, I learnt from the best Celestina007 (talk) 02:05, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
- Fieari, looking at Celestina007's link to Misplaced Pages:Interviews, you'll see it's got an interesting section on Notability. Basically it comes down to this: you need to decide whether the interviewee sought out the interviewer, or vice versa. If the interviewee managed to wangle themselves a TV interview, it means nothing (except they've got a big wallet or a good agent). If the TV station independently, and without encouragement from the subject, decided the interviewee was worth interviewing, this supports their notability. But even so, the interview is a poor source for actual information, so unless there's some other source available, we find ourselves suspecting that someone's notable, but having nothing reliable we can say about them. I'm grateful for input from those who, like @Celestina, know the local sources and their attitudes to paid-for interviews. Don't get me started on paid-for award-nominations!

Keep Justice Ofori is the Commissioner of Insurance in Ghana a very high profile Government of Ghana position which the person is nominated directly by the president to that office. This person meets WP:NPOL since his office is tied to the tenure of the president of the republic of Ghana. This makes the subject meet WP:GNG, I am at a loss why you claim he is not notable with the abundance of third party sources we have provided.

To a degree a test case, but subject and content does not seem to pass the bar for an article under WP:GNG with most RS about the death event which was apparently a non-notable car accident. There is a question if either the President's Police Medal for long service, which while honourable, is ranked below the gallantry version, or if Additional director general of police is sufficient reason to satisfy WP:ANYBIO, bearinig in mind statesin India are often larger and more populous than many countries. A WP:NPP has tagged the article for notability but the article author has improved the article and they seem convinced nootability is now satisfied.

He had 5 more years of service, in which any IPS officer gets DG rank. If the subject doesn't pass WP:GNG of a dead police officer (2nd highest rank), then I wonder what else might be eligible.

Folklore or Fakelore by its very definition, is substantially untrue. Make sure you cancel all the characters on this Misplaced Pages page wile you're at it: https://en.wikipedia.org/Tall_tale — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ray.lowry (talk • contribs) 13:52, February 3, 2022 (UTC)
- Delete "Folklore" is a story that has been passed down, is told in many cases, and has wide use. The factual reality of the story is not what matters. Some stories are in fact true, but most are fiction. We have articles on fiction. That is not the issue. Our articles on fiction cover things that have recieved coverage in reliable sources. So in the case of folklore, it is a story widely shared in various formats. True, most of the forms folklore is shared are not directly documentable, it is parents telling stories to children, teachers repeating stories, cub scout leaders telling stories, etc. However there are ways to document that the story does exist. We lack the documents here to show that this is a widely told of character who is widely spoken about. So there is no evidence that this is a generally accepted person in the existing folklore. So we should delete the article, unless someone can find sources that shows that this is an existing character in the folklore.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:27, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
- To add to this, I called this out as a hoax because the article confusingly presents itself as genuine folklore. If it were to remain, it would need to be extensively rewritten to clarify that Cordwood Pete is a relatively recent invention with a specific source. Regardless, I'm not advocating the article be deleted by virtue of fakelore, but rather (as above) general notability. Toogs (talk) 21:43, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
- Preliminary Keep or Merge to, I guess, Tall tale#United States. About notability: The story (Invented by that homepage? Can we judge from anything besides circumstantial evidence?) is taken up in detail in the travel guides by Eric Dregni /. There is a short description of the house in Minnesota Open House, and more about the figure himself in Minnesota Curiosities: Quirky Characters, Roadside Oddities. Unfortunately I don't get a proper preview, but Google shows me the start of the story, so it does not seem insignificant. This scholarly source (published in the Russian journal "Philological Class") does not give any details, but it does call Cordwood Pete a "folklore character". Is there a reason why the fact that the figure made it into the travel guides (no matter his origin) should not count towards notability? Daranios (talk) 08:31, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
- Good points about notability, but I would caution against including Cordwood Pete in any list that implies genuine folklore. The obituary of Fosston mayor Arvid Clementson says:
This, the dubious claim of a "time capsule" found in 2001, and the fact that no older references exist leads me to believe that Cordwood Pete is purely an invention of the 21st century. I'm concerned these secondary sources (some of which seem rather tongue-in-cheek) are, knowingly or not, perpetuating a hoax. It feels wrong for Misplaced Pages to do the same. I think if the article remains, its first lines should reflect the information in the above blockquote. Toogs (talk) 20:00, 4 February 2022 (UTC)In his tireless effort to promote Fosston, he created the "Cordwood Pete" legend, which has generated a statewide interest for tourism ... Proceeds from his Cordwood Pete activities were designed to support local tourism activities including Fosston's Annual Heritage Days.
- @Toogs: Now that obituary is a good find! Even if editorial control of that site is not clear to me, it is a source that makes clear that the character is a recent invention, without us as Misplaced Pages editors having to put that together somehow. So I would still like to keep the article based on the secondary sources found, even if they are not very auspicious, about this "legend, which has generated a statewide interest for tourism". But I wholeheartedly agree to a rephrasing of the introductory part along the lines you've suggested. Daranios (talk) 20:59, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
- Good points about notability, but I would caution against including Cordwood Pete in any list that implies genuine folklore. The obituary of Fosston mayor Arvid Clementson says:
- Weak keep per Daranios. This needs careful rewrite as it may be a hoax that generated secondary coverage sufficient to become notable. Looking at the sources, Midwest Marvels is a 2006 touristy book, but published by a reliable institution (University of Minnesota Press) and the author is an academic (Eric Dregni). It talks about the time capsule and such. Was Dregni duped? It's not like his article adheres to high academic standards, but it is not for us to say he was duped or not, I think. I have trouble accessing other sources (snippet view/copyright), but Dregni's treatment suggests some notability. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:28, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
Okay folks, I am the culprit who created this page. If you read the 2010 version it has five citations, including the obituary referenced above (although the site it connected to is now a paid-search site). It began with the sentence "Cordwood Pete is a tall-tale character.." and currently reads "Cordwood Pete is a fictional character..." I also inserted the generic pictures of lumberjacks. This all began when I visited Fosston and stopped to use the bathroom at the museum/gift shop the locals claim was Cordwood Pete's home. I looked up the name on my phone (literally while sitting on the toilet), was amused by the several references I found, and created the page when I returned home. Excuse the heck out of me for perpetuating the myth created by residents of some small town in Minnesota. It was not my intent to create a hoax. If you google "Cordwood Pete" several dozen sites pop up, about half of which obtained their info directly from the Misplaced Pages page. That says something about the reach of Misplaced Pages. But Pete is also mentioned in several travel books, to include one in German, and one academic tract in Russian about modern mythology. My feelings will not be hurt if you delete the page. I would rewrite it, and make it acceptable to all of you, but though once very active in Misplaced Pages page creation, I not longer know how to really do it. As you can see, I no longer even know who to even sign off correctly. Have a good day. And thank you for your participation in Misplaced Pages, which as a world-wide treasure. https://en.wikipedia.org/User:Ray.lowry — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ray.lowry (talk • contribs) 19:12, February 5, 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect to Fosston, Minnesota#History, where he is already mentioned, and perhaps expand on that a bit, making clear that he's a legend invented for touristic purposes. The sources mentioned above don't really support an article, but they can be used to flesh out this town's local history a bit. Sandstein 08:58, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to Fosston, Minnesota#History per Sandstein. While that section could be expanded a bit with information from the sources listed above, I would not recommend an actual merger, as the only true secondary source being used in the current article is being used to cite the information on the time capsule, which, based on the evidence above regarding Cordwood Pete being a relatively recent invention, is highly dubious.

Ó Fathaigh

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This seems to be either a hoax or a bunch of very hard to verify WP:OR with a few reliable bits thrown in to make it look believable. For example, the forefather "Fathadh mac Aonghus", is not to be found in Google Books and doesn't seem to appear in reliable sources in Google otherwise. "Cormac Ó Fathaigh" is said to be the first with the surname, but again all traces of such a person are missing. The episode with "Uilic de Burgo": equally unverifiable.
The sources used in the article either don't support the article, or are copies of Misplaced Pages.
Note that the name O Fathaigh obviously exists, and some information about it can be found from reliable sources, e.g. here. But that doesn't excuse the existence of an article which seems 90% made up around these few facts.
If this is indeed largely a hoax or unverifiable, then a number of other articles will need to be looked at as well (e.g. Fathadh mac Aonghus and Tadhg an tSleibhe Ó Fathaigh exist here since 2009, but are completely unverifiable). Fram (talk) 16:32, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

- There's nothing in the guidelines stopping the deletion of this as a name list. We've got articles about two people with the name. A dab page will be needed here only if both of them are commonly known under their surname, which I take not to be the case. This leaves it as a surname list, and a surname list of two people is allowed as a navigational aid by WP:APONOTE. However, that is not a guideline, but an essay without community consensus, and there are very good reasons to do the opposite of what it recommends for such very short lists. First, the list is not an improvement on the search engine: the two articles about the people will appear at the very top of the search results , which will incidentally also reveal all other relevant content on Misplaced Pages (like the various articles about related names that mention "Ó Fathaigh", or the other non-notable people with the name mentioned here and there). Second, unlike the search results, the list doesn't automatically stay up to date (and there are no processes that I'm aware of that help here), so if a third article gets created about another person with the name, then the list would immediately become an obstruction rather than an aid to navigation. – Uanfala (talk) 12:07, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. Not a single reference either mentioned above or in the article meet the criteria, volume of "coverage" often means an absense of quality references. Topic fails WP:NCORP.

. Probably the most ridiculous AfD nomination I have seen in over 18 years on Misplaced Pages. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:01, 3 February 2022 (UTC)- You probably haven’t looked at many AfD nominations, then. I suppose your argument is that those awards satisfy WP:ANYBIO, but I rather doubt it. (I have not evaluated sources for other claims to notability - you would expect a CEO of Siemens Hungary to have some press coverage.)
- The Hungarian order of Merit (Magyar Érdemrend) comes in many grades. From , I found
Dale A. Martin a Magyar Érdemrend középkeresztjének polgári tagozatának kitüntetését veheti majd át személyesen a koronavírus elmúltával
, which machine translations have a hard time with but I assume theközépkeresztjének
part is translated by "commander’s cross" in the English article. There is an hu-wp article about recipents at that level which shows 20 to 40 recipients per year. That is hardly awell-known and significant award or honor
- see for instance that MILHIST discussion which argued that only the highest grades should be counted. Even without grade considerations, that site seems to indicate that the order of merit is not the highest civilian distinction in Hungary. - For the Austrian one (Decoration of Honour for Services to the Republic of Austria), the sourcing is not great but I found that facebook post from an official source. The transcript says
Am 23. Juli 2020 erhielt Dale András Martin, CEO von Siemens Ungarn, das große Ehrenzeichen für Verdienste um die Republik Österreich (...)
, which refers to the 8th rank of the decoration ("Grand Decoration of Honour" in the English article). From the de-wp article, one can find a handy list of all recipients (in 2012), ctrl-F for "Großes Ehrenzeichen" returns more than a thousand hits. So, not all that selective either. Tigraan 14:50, 4 February 2022 (UTC) - reply Come on, Andy, dial back the over-the-top rhetoric here. These awards are handed out to lubricate the social machinery by flattering business and political types. The guy's a senior honcho in a local branch of a major multinational, they want to reward him for some business deals, so they give him a low-level gong to hang on his dress suit. (I seem to recall a medal The Saint wore, which he demurely said he'd been awarded for rescuing a Greek royalist's laundry from the dry cleaners.) --Orange Mike | Talk 12:30, 5 February 2022 (UTC)

In Page 361 stated In 1801 Vithoji Holkar was captured in a house in Bhámburda village , and by order of Bájiráv Peshwa to please Sindia , was dragged to death at the foot of an elephant through the streets of Poona . It was Yaahvantrav Holkar's rage at his brother's murder that led to the flight of Brijiritv from Poona and the treaty of Bassein (30th December 1802).
Maharashtra State Gazeteers: Maratha period - Page 115 — In March 1801 the rebels were defeated near the Māņ river . Vithoji Holkar was captured by Bāpū Gokhale and sent to Pooņā . Bājī Rāv wished to make an example of him so as to deter the partisans of Amột Rāv from further attempts .

- Keep Per VocalIndia StellarHalo (talk) 09:20, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete This article and AfD are a good illustration of why notability standards exist. The sources demonstrated by VocalIndia are independent and reliable (at least on the surface) but the totality of the text is not all that significant. What kind of article can be written from such passing mentions? Well, one like this one which barely mentions the nominal article subject and concerns mostly what others did. Even some of the actions of the article subject that are present are unsourced so we don't actually know much about them. Take out the unsourced and other people's actions and what is left is: He was born, he was captured, he was trampled by an elephant, and he was buried. Not actually an article. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 01:43, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
- Commemt What the hell? He was a member of the royal court of the Holkar dynasty, a member of the Royal family, played a key role in the political rebellion against the other king, inherently notable as Holkar political system is an Absolute Monarchy where each prince can be considered to hold national or international office, making articles about them inherently valid as a US Senator or UK Minister of Parliament. Do note, the monarchy of Holkar kingdom can't be compared with today's useless Constitutional monarchy, there is definitely a greater notability as the royal court fills both political and communal functions. I've voted 'keep' for someone living circa 250 years ago that is quite a lot of detail including a multi-page biography that someone wrote about him. More than sufficient for a historical figure. If this were about someone from the 1940s or 1950s, then I would say that they do not meet WP:GNG. Even if they were from the historical period, would probably agree with the delete votes, but this type of referencing from millennia ago, passes WP:NPOL for his political significant.

- Comment For example AfD outcomes for Indian prince and historical figure, see
Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Mirza Babur Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Bhim Singh Rana,
Why guys are trying to compare between the modern political system and monarchy? Well, I also agree with Respected editor Bearian's Proper his own standards (not a guideline): "Even Spouses and children of Modern's deposed royalty could be notable, because their businesses, charity work, attendance at relatives' notable weddings, or a notable scandal often provides them with media attention.". In this case, "House of Holkar" is not a deposed one, but very powerful ruling dynasty at that time. He had played major roles in the political affairs of his dynasty and cases of succession to the throne. He appears as a significant player in numerous histories of His kingdom's game of thrones and so is clearly notable. How much do you need? VocalIndia (talk) 19:54, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- What we need is actual sourcing for these statements.
He had played major roles in the political affairs of his dynasty and cases of succession to the throne.
How so? Why was his role "major"? Who says?He appears as a significant player in numerous histories
Does he? Where are these histories? These statements appear to be extrapolations or interpretations of the sources that actually have been so far presented. What we know from these sources is nothing like as detailed or as significant as these claims. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 20:17, 5 March 2022 (UTC)- Eggishorn Check again above sources, " In 1801 Vithoji Holkar was captured in a house in Bhámburda village , and by order of Bájiráv Peshwa to please Sindia , was dragged to death at the foot of an elephant through the streets of Poona . It was Yaahvantrav Holkar's rage at his brother's murder that led to the flight of Brijiritv from Poona and the treaty of Bassein (30th December 1802)." Ohh You know our country's history more than a native Indian? What is your problem? VocalIndia (talk) 20:30, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- "The fact that he was killed for political reasons adds to this notability, and people can be curious about the basic facts of his life. An independent article makes the scant information about his life more easily accessible. You need to learn more AfD outcomes for historical figures, here is one Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Eutropia (sister of Constantine I). This is the English language encyclopedia of the entire world, not the encylopedia of the English language speaking world. References to sources in Google Books and Tamil languages other than English are entirely acceptable to establish notability, although Book sources are preferable when readily available to choose from. VocalIndia (talk) 20:43, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- @VocalIndia:, Nativism and nationalism are poor substitutes for argumentation. I did read the sources and Indian nationality is not a prerequisite to source evaluation. Even in this passage, there is still no support for your statements. Where is it said that he played a major role in the succession? Where is it said that his role in the kingdom was significant? The only events that his role is significant in according to this was his death. Every other claim you make for his notability is unsupported. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 20:47, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

- Keep, having an upcoming IPO doesn't necessarily make a company is notable, they need to pass WP:NCORP which this does seem to. For instance, Regional Language Television in India: Profiles and Perspectives dedicates an entire page to it. The SAGE published journal article The Indian news media industry: Structural trends and journalistic implications makes somewhat extensive references to it and indicates that it was the parent company of Asianet Star Communications and Asianet News Network before its restructuring and breakup between three seperate parties, so a lot of older publications refer to it as simply "Asianet".

- Keep - I disagree that Lenta.ru and Gazeta.ru are unreliable for this specific case, because it does not have any specific political aspect to it that would necessarily make them unreliable based on being owned ultimately by state-owned Sberbank. Looking for other coverage I see that it the case was covered in the Ukrainian media, in multiple sources. The non-tabloid, state-owned outlets Vesti.ru and RIA-Novosti also covered the story. Since this is a purely domestic, criminal story, there is no reason to believe that these sources will be unreliable on this topic. We should always keep in mind that different sources are reliable for different things - I would not rely on any of these sources for information about Russia's aggression in Ukraine, but for a simple criminal story I see no reason not to. Even without this, the Ukrainian coverage (one of Zhukova's victims was Ukrainian) shows notability by itself. FOARP (talk) 14:10, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

- Comment Does anyone else find it disturbing that we include the head of Oundle's bog-standard response following an Ofsted report (“This inspection report is an independent record of the work of every member of the staff community as evidenced in the outstanding quality of the outcomes experienced and shown by our pupils”) when almost exactly the same thing has been said by every head of every school in England? If you happen to be head of a busy bog-standard state-funded school, no one cares. I would feel more comfortable with Kerr-Dineen's article if it dwelt on her notable achievements rather than assuming that she's notable ex officio because Oundle is an important school. The article on Oundle_School contains a list of notable headmasters. Are all headmasters notable, or do they have to contribute something unique, or make a lasting impression in educational literature, histories, etc., or at least in national newspapers, to qualify as notable?

- Delete, neither GNG nor NACADEMIC are met, and also a likely violation of WP:NOTCV. Being the head of a "major English private school" (what constitutes such a claim remains to be explained) doesn't make one inherently notable, since notability is in the quasi-totality of cases not inherited. Editors who cite the UK Who's Who are wrong about the reliability of the publication. On top of the fact that Who's Who directories are not reliable sources (per almost every discussion at RSN), and besides the fact that Misplaced Pages is not a directory, this discussion at RSN based on a 2004 investigative piece by the Spectator has uncovered that UK's Who's Who has admitted in the past that it doesn't fact check every entry and corrections are only made upon mutual agreement - meaning that if a person says they studied in Oxford rather than in London, and they just ignore requests from correction from UK Who's Who (assuming anybody has lodged a complaint, which I find hard to believe since UKWW is behind a paywall), nothing is done. That means that UKWW cannot be considered a reliable source and cannot therefore count towards any GNG analysis. Pilaz (talk) 11:15, 8 February 2022 (UTC) edited: Pilaz (talk) 11:19, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
- And just to add to my previous comment, the remaining in-depth coverage she receives is run-of-the-mill local press coverage from Oundle Chronicle (a town of 5,000 where she heads the local school) and from a 2009 East London and West Essex Guardian piece, from when she was the head of another school, which interviewed her with hard-hitting questions such as "Do you have any pets?" "What's the one thing you can't do without in the morning?", "What is your favourite film?". Great if you're trying to remember your forgotten password, not so great to prove notability.

UK Who's Who has a poor reputation for fact-checking as per the Spectator piece and its own executives; 2 other editors concur with this assertion. Regarding your comment about the Misplaced Pages page saying they are "influential people", see WP:CIRCULAR: Misplaced Pages is a user-generated source and cannot be used to assert notability. Finally, we don't have an obligation to list people who are in a Who's Who on Misplaced Pages, because Misplaced Pages is not a directory. Pilaz (talk) 23:58, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

- And just to add to my previous comment, the remaining in-depth coverage she receives is run-of-the-mill local press coverage from Oundle Chronicle (a town of 5,000 where she heads the local school) and from a 2009 East London and West Essex Guardian piece, from when she was the head of another school, which interviewed her with hard-hitting questions such as "Do you have any pets?" "What's the one thing you can't do without in the morning?", "What is your favourite film?". Great if you're trying to remember your forgotten password, not so great to prove notability.

There is no consensus on the reliability of Who's Who UK. It is a reference work with information mainly collected from the people concerned. Editors are divided on whether sufficient editorial control exists, and whether it is an independent source.
See RSP entry.- It's about it being a source of notability: From the BBC: "Who's Who is among the world's most recognised and respected reference books. It has been published annually by A & C Black since 1897 and was the first biographical book of its kind. It contains over 33,000 short biographies of living noteworthy and influential individuals, from all walks of life, worldwide." The Wall Street Journal: What is it that really puts the stamp of eminence on a modern British life? Certainly not receiving a title in an official honors list. But during your lifetime, two things do count today: having an entry in "Who's Who" and getting asked to choose your eight favorite records on BBC Radio-4's "Desert Island Discs."

On top of that, Who's Who has a poor track record with fact-checking and corrections, which goes against WP:REPUTABLE's requirement of a

, so it cannot be considered a reliable source. All of this is reflected in the Misplaced Pages-wide lack of consensus on this source. Pilaz (talk) 18:00, 11 February 2022 (UTC)- I agree with what you are saying. But we're not using UK Who's Who here for some questionable biographical information but just as a method to determine whether a person is deemed to be notable enough for an English Misplaced Pages entry. I think that having a UK Who's Who entry should be considered when determining notability. Piecesofuk (talk) 18:38, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
- Per the general notability guideline:
A topic is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.
Sources should be secondary sources.
Who's Who is neither reliable nor secondary. Therefore it cannot be used to determine the notability of an individual.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz 05:38, 17 February 2022 (UTC)- Comment: The series Klassi Ghalina is very popular in Malta and the movies which emerged from the series are the cherries on the cake. On the youtube channel KlassiGhalinaFans, each episode has got thousands of views. For example, Klassi Ghalina Season 2 Episode 7 has 414,000 views when the population of Malta is around half a million. Klassi Ghalina Season 3 Episode 3 has 456,000 views. Klassi Ghalina Season 2 Episode 4 has 409,000 views, etc... so the show is extremely popular. It would really be a pity if it gets deleted, particularly considering the fact that the user who nominated this article for deletion did so cause he said "Cites IMDB for 3/4ths of references. Issues of notability." Now the issue has clearly been addressed as there are no references from IMDB (it is not even a good source anyway with regards to notability, in fact these references were deleted) and now there are references from several different sources which evidently confirm the article's notability. When the user nominated this article for deletion, I sent a message on his talk page, and he agreed that the article was improved a good deal so it's a pity that he simply nominated the article for deletion and no longer commented on it, particularly considering the fact that the reason he submitted the nomination is no longer valid.

- Keep Hi, I wrote the article, so as you might expect, I think it should stay on Misplaced Pages. My reasons are that it meets GNG, it's a notable publication that is widely cited in authoritative academic literature. Every sentence of the synopsis is cited secondary high quality academic sources, and I've quoted various high quality, independent, secondary sources that cite it:
- This paper from La Trobe University
- This paper from Conflict Sensitivity Resource Facility
- It's cited dozens of times on this report from Tufts University to the point where it was probably the main source and influence for the whole publication
- This publication is from the same publisher, but different authors, so you could maybe argue it either way.
- This report from N.E.S.T.A.
- Since the AfD started, I added another citation from the Centre for Humanitarian Leadership I had missed it first as they spell localisation with a "z".
- I wouldn't just say it's notable, it's a meta analysis of every paper that's been published on Localisation (humanitarian practice), probably the most important publication on the topic. I recognize that humanitarian topics are not well covered in wikipedia, but this is a very important document in the decolonisation of humanitarian aid and it absolutely deserves to be on Misplaced Pages, in my humble opinion.
- I see very little activity at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_International_Development sadly, and yet they are the group who I think would most likely see it like me, I hate how humanitarian and international development stuff is so absent here, if anyone can do the thing where we fairly let people know without trying to bias the result, they should be aware that this is up for deletion, I think.

The more I read them, the more it seems very clear to me that this publication is very specifically meeting the criteria. It is the subject of multiple, non trivial publications that are independent of the source, it is influential within its area of influence. I hope the final decision on this will follow the guidance on notability for published works. CT55555 (talk) 23:50, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

- Merge into a section of Overseas Development Institute. It's very rare for an individual paper/report to have a stand-alone article, and rarer still when there's an obvious home for material about the report (like an article about the entity that produced it). For a stand-alone article, we need more than just citations, which is largely what these sources are. We need in depth coverage of the report itself, and preferably published in peer reviewed publications. The bar is relatively high, in other words. Think, like, Two Dogmas of Empiricism level of significance. Otherwise a good report is, well, a good source to cite on Misplaced Pages. — Rhododendrites \\ 04:53, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
- User:Rhododendrites I delayed replying, hope more people would comment. Naturally, I'd prefer a merge than a delete. But here's an attempt to persuade you: I recognise the point you are making, but this is more than just citations. Indeed most of the sources here are just a citations, but if you consider the Tuff's report, it's a major influence for the whole paper. OK, so it's not formally peer reviewed, but it's published by a university, so it probably literally is peer reviewed. The quality of the other thinking that this has influenced is really quite high. So I think nobody could argue that it's rare for a report to have a stand alone article, but I say this report is that rare exception, it's a meta analysis of all of the thinking on the topic, it's important.
- And if I didn't persuade you against the merge, I would say that the ODI page is indeed a suitable home for this, but I don't think people go to the ODI page to learn about localisation, so maybe (and maybe not, this is a suggestion) Localisation_(humanitarian_practice) would be the more logical merge to? CT55555 (talk) 00:03, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- It still does not strike me as enough coverage of the subject to overcome a merge, but I'd be curious what others think, too. As for where it should be merged, there are actually two questions built in: where should the content go, and where should this article title redirect a reader. It sounds like it makes sense to add some content about it to the localisation article in addition to the ODI article, but as for where the report title points to (where it redirects), I'm still inclined to point to the entity that produced the report, which in turn could link to the localisation article. If this report were the basis of the whole concept of localisation, such that it were inextricable from that subject, then that might work as a redirect, but it would be unusual. Some of these questions are a matter of style/consistency. — Rhododendrites \\ 13:08, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- On the specific point of the redirect, I agree on the style/consistency point. I think if merge is the consensus (I don't support that consensus) then the ODI page could do with a paragraph on this and the localisation page could do with a section on this report, or something of that quantity. Relisted for the second time, but alas Misplaced Pages seems to have low interest for humanitarian stuff, which ironically is why created this article. lol CT55555 (talk) 13:54, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- Move to Localisation (humanitarian organizations). There's nothing in the routine citations above to suggest that the report is notable, but the rather that the underlying practice being discussed is. On the other hand, the content here is relevant to a meaningful and high-profile practice within multiple humanitarian organizations, which meets GNG.--Carwil (talk) 20:22, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

- Merge to Localisation (humanitarian practice). One needs to differentiate between the issues the report covers and the report itself. I do not see WP:NBOOK being met here. To take the Save the Children source, this is an archive listing, it is not a discussion or analysis of the report. The report is being cited by others for its examination of an issue, which is different than being cited for the report's effect. A concrete way to illustrate this difference would be the Beveridge Report; that report is famously notable for its policy and legal effects; indicating that a report is cited by others within the same academic sphere is not enough to indicate the policy and/or legal effects of the report (which would be appropriate criteria in this case). FWIW, as far as I can see, we don't even have a stand-alone article for Einstein's paper on mass-energy equivalence (although we do have one on his proof of the existence of atoms). No doubt this report is useful in establishing the notability of the topic it examines, but there is no clear sourcing that the report itself is notable. I hope the distinction I'm making is clear.

The result was delete. Consensus is that we don't want an article with the scope described by the title.

- Merge to Amazon (company)#Response to COVID-19 pandemic. Whilst I agree with the nom that this title is not suitable for a standalone article (it certainly does not describe its contents well at all) I disagree with their contention that the well-sourced content does not belong in WP. The article is mostly about Amazon's free shipping policy to Israel, and the complications that said policy faced as a consequence of COVID-19, so the logical thing would be to put it where it belongs.

- Under these circumstances a procedural keep is in order. Then see what can be made of the article, following the rules. Then it can still be discussed.

Scope creep renamed the article prior to initiating the AfD.
Right. That's EXACTLY what I said! I did not say that moving is forbidden. I said that a non-contributor (any) to an article moving it to a weird name, next minute nominating creates a problem as we cannot or should not move it back. Next respondents are going to check the contents versus the title, as happened above. Any initiator of an AfD should give success and failure of an AfD a fair chance. AfDs are about letting the community decide on optimal solutions for the article in a collaborative spirit. Please do not make this more personal than the nominator already did. My comments are purely about the principle. I stand 100% behind my conclusion that, given the circumstances around this AfD, it is best to close in a procedural keep. Let people improve the text and title. Then nominate if still relevant. I do not decide on all that. Others do. gidonb (talk) 15:53, 11 February 2022 (UTC)- You also said
you are not supposed to make name changes during AFDs so the name (change) that several people mentioned is very problematic
which @Scope creep did not do. That's all I'm saying. I'm not sure which of you is right, or wrong content wise, but accusing one another of doing something you didn't doesn't help a discussion. Star Mississippi 21:35, 11 February 2022 (UTC)- Your quote of me,
you are not supposed to make name changes during AFDs so the name (change) that several people mentioned is very problematic
, refers to what we should not do AFTER the AfD has started. I stand 100% behind this statement and have proudly repeated it heremoving it to a weird name, next minute nominating creates a problem as we cannot or should not move it back
. I did not accuse anyone of anything. This is behavior that was assigned to me by someone else and clearly does not apply to me. I noted that this AfD has a problem baked in because of the sequence of events around the nomination: change into a weird title THEN nomination. I analyzed the problem and suggested a constructive solution. No single person can do better than that! gidonb (talk) 22:08, 11 February 2022 (UTC) - Now while I did not accuse anyone of anything, there were several false accusations against me here that are VERY annoying. I'll leave it that for now. gidonb (talk) 23:37, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
- Your quote of me,
- You also said
- I raised my eyebrows at the last-minute change of name, as it might be interpreted as an attempt to compromise the article before a deletion nomination. I asked Scope creep to explain this change but they do not appear to have done so. However, this wrinkle is insufficient reason for a procedural keep, and we should assess the article in the normal way. 'Amazon shipping to Israel' is too narrow a topic for a useful article. We might usefully have an article on Amazon's shipping operations worldwide, or possibly on Amazon's activities in Israel (although we don't have corresponding articles on Amazon's larger markets), but this article is too far from either of these to form a useful starting point. The current text cannot easily be merged into Amazon (company), which does not have geographical sections. None of the other articles in Template:Amazon appear to be a viable merge target, soo I favour delete, as the only remaining outcome. Verbcatcher (talk) 00:14, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. There is a complete disjoint between the title and the content. The original title was a bit clearer (and I don't think it should have been renamed prior to nomination!) although that title just makes the non-notability of the topic more obvious. The content seems... weird. Taken at face value it is a scattered set of facts that do not add up to a coherent or notable subject. It seems like we are being invited to join the dots but to what end? Even if I am right about that, I can't see exactly what narrative is being sketched here but I assume it falls foul of WP:SYNTH. --DanielRigal (talk) 22:03, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete aside from the name drama, which could be solved editorially, there is still no content that adds up to an encyclopedia article here. Without that, no amount of fixing will address the issue. There were shipping issues to Israel. Maybe this could be covered within BDS Sanctions, but that doesn't even appear to be a fit nor is it a significant enough issue. Star Mississippi 22:54, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

- Keep. While still cleaning up the last-place finishers and non-finishers of the Olympics, who can be said not to have achieved anything, it's pretty extreme to suddenly start sweeping over the Olympic medalists in the same go. This counteracts the centralized discussion, because the presumption of notability is exceedingly stronger.

- Comment - digitised Danish newspapers are freely available after 100 years, so up to 1922. After that, access is apparently restricted to academic researchers located in Denmark: see here, here and here. So accessing coverage for 1924 and 1928 would not be straightforward. Ingratis (talk) 05:13, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Ingratis What is the coverage of pre-1922 Olympic medallists in Danish newspapers? JoelleJay (talk) 23:30, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
- I don't know. Ingratis (talk) 23:55, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
- I think if the presumption of notability rests on the presumption that Danish newspapers gave SIGCOV to Danish Olympic sailors, the latter ought to be demonstrated first. Otherwise we'd be stuck holding on to a microstub for another 2 to 6 years until sources are available that may not even have sufficient coverage for GNG anyway. JoelleJay (talk) 00:41, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- It's equally a presumption that there is no information, whatever earlier newspapers may or may not contain. There is NO time limit and Misplaced Pages is NOT pressed for space - I see no problem in waiting, especially since this is not just an Olympic competitor but an Olympic medallist, and not in a team event either. Ingratis (talk) 04:45, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sailing at the 1928 Summer Olympics – 6 Metre was a team event - he was one of three crewmembers, in addition to the helmsman. And while there is WP:NODEADLINE, there is also no deadline for us to have a deadline - would you be willing to compromise on a soft-deletion (turn into a redirect), and if sources are found in six years time when 1928 is publicly available the article can be easily restored? BilledMammal (talk) 04:50, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- My mistake re team! Because this is a medal winner, whether in a very small team or on his own, as I wrote below I would rather keep until it's possible to search more meaningfully for sources, which are likely, if they exist, to be in contemporary Danish newspapers, although not excluding the possibility of others. Until such a search can be made the presumption of notability remains, and as Geschichte has already said, it's a very strong presumption for a medal winner. I agree that even in 2028, should we reach it, there is no fixed deadline for such a search. Redirecting rather than deletion is surely in any case the default for Olympic stubs. Ingratis (talk) 06:46, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- There has never been a proper determination of whether Olympic medallists in particular sports in particular eras receive the requisite coverage in their home countries to meet GNG. It has always been presumed based on the amount of coverage they get now. Because this presumption has not been validated, and because NSPORT says if an SNG but not GNG is met
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

SIGCOV exists in these Danish newspapers. It is not enough to assert WP:SOURCESMUSTEXIST. JoelleJay (talk) 21:51, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sailing at the 1928 Summer Olympics – 6 Metre was a team event - he was one of three crewmembers, in addition to the helmsman. And while there is WP:NODEADLINE, there is also no deadline for us to have a deadline - would you be willing to compromise on a soft-deletion (turn into a redirect), and if sources are found in six years time when 1928 is publicly available the article can be easily restored? BilledMammal (talk) 04:50, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- It's equally a presumption that there is no information, whatever earlier newspapers may or may not contain. There is NO time limit and Misplaced Pages is NOT pressed for space - I see no problem in waiting, especially since this is not just an Olympic competitor but an Olympic medallist, and not in a team event either. Ingratis (talk) 04:45, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- I think if the presumption of notability rests on the presumption that Danish newspapers gave SIGCOV to Danish Olympic sailors, the latter ought to be demonstrated first. Otherwise we'd be stuck holding on to a microstub for another 2 to 6 years until sources are available that may not even have sufficient coverage for GNG anyway. JoelleJay (talk) 00:41, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- I don't know. Ingratis (talk) 23:55, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect, to Sailing at the 1928 Summer Olympics – 6 Metre, if this article is not kept - WP:ATD. But given the time restriction on Danish sources above, I think it should be kept until they have become available. I have to say, echoing Geschichte, that I'm surprised (and not in a good way) to see an article on an Olympic medallist nominated for deletion. Clearly there was no real point whatsoever to the interminable NOLY RfC. Ingratis (talk) 05:13, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
- Keep, per winning a medal at the Olympics, meets NOLY. And I'm sure he would probably meet GNG as well if we were able to access Danish newspapers from the period he competed in. BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:58, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
- You cannot presume GNG based on sources you cannot describe and just pull out of thin air. GNG is met by finding actual sources.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:02, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- If the sources that likely have coverage of him will not be available for a few years, then I believe GNG can be presumed. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:17, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- No, that is backwards. If the sources will not be available for a few years, we should wait a few years to create the article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:39, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
- If the sources that likely have coverage of him will not be available for a few years, then I believe GNG can be presumed. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:17, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect to List of Delhi cricketers A reasonable career of 9 FC, 7 LA and 7 T20 matches, but fails the updated cricket guidelines. GNG is very difficult to gauge due to the more famous cricketer of the same name and nationality. There may be sourcing in Hindu or Delhi related sources, but given his career and the difficulty we've had in finding sources for similar Indian/Asian players, I'm happy with redirect here as a suitable WP:ATD. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 20:08, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of Delhi cricketers I couldn’t find any source which would indicate that he passes GNG as most news articles are about the other Mohit Sharma. He has played a considerable amount of matches so it should probably be redirected. Hamza Ali Shah 18:10, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. This article about a fictional entity is presented almost entirely from an in-universe perspective, contrary to Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style/Writing about fiction. Only the first sentence and part of the infobox contain any real-world perspective. Every source cited is a comic book, except for CBR - the World's Top Destination for Comic, Movie & TV news which is a broken link, and UCWF at MarvelDirectory.com which is a "404 Not Found" link. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:55, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Longstanding fixture of the Marvel universe that has spanned across multiple prominent storylines, particularly in Mark Gruenwald's Capatin America run, and elements of which have been touched on by the MCU (in particular the The Falcon and the Winter Soldier series). Would agree the in universe cites could do with bolstering/swapping out with cites from other sources, which I have made a start on. Artw (talk) 03:40, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Avilich (talk) 04:03, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

- Keep, I have added a few refs which hopefully boost the case for WP:GNG pass. As well as playing in the Junior Cup final (covered in The Herald as per ref and probably elsewhere), the club won the Central Junior Football League twice in the 1950s so were among the top non-league clubs of that period. Yes they never played in the senior Scottish Cup, but that wasn't a possibility for any Junior clubs until the 21st century, instead it was a parallel 'little brother' organisation. The more recent refs I added were related to the ground - these confirm that the current team with the name is a very low-level amateur outfit, but there is still sufficient interest in a club that faded out 40 years ago to wish to restart it with the same name, and for the local newspaper to want to report on that. To call that SIGCOV would be pushing it, but COV certainly. I also linked to the Players category for the club which has 25 entries including a few internationals, so they had a decent record of producing professionals as well as bumbling along in the junior bubble. Would be a disappointing precedent for pre-Internet clubs if this were deleted, given their small but clear part in the history of Scottish football. Crowsus (talk) 04:16, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- Keep Just because it was pre-internet doesn't mean it is not notable. I think coverage is sufficient enough, and as said above, the club itself was a clear part of Scottish football. ArsenalGhanaPartey (talk) 12:52, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

- Keep - nomination is flawed, as it doesn't fail NSPORTS. Also, I'm finding over 300 hits in the British Newspaper Archive between 1894 and 1966. Perhaps someone with access could find some GNG references. Nfitz (talk) 00:14, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Duntocher Hibernian were at one time a major junior club. I would also concur that it is significant that club produced players that went on to make an impact in the senior game.

- Delete. These two books are extremely frequently cited and would both easily pass notability guidelines for books, but they're both co-authored (by notable academics we have articles on), so they don't make as solid a WP:NAUTHOR pass as a pair of monographs would. I might be inclined to argue for a keep if he were still in academia, but he left the field ten years ago: so what we're looking at right now is already basically the fullest possible version of this article, and it's almost entirely sentences about the books - sentences that already exist on his co-authors' wikipedia articles. We'd be better off having articles on the two books. -- asilvering (talk) 04:56, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
