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 soft delete‎. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion. (With no suggestion of notability increasing in the next few months, draftification would likely be backdoor deletion by G13.) asilvering (talk) 07:00, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Zahaby Gholy

I'm a little unsure about this article, as there was a decent amount of coverage on him due to his performance at the 2024 ASEAN U-16 Championship, but a lot of it is routine and/or simply focused on that one event, which does not show or suggest actual notability. Generally, I see this as a WP:TOOSOON situation, because he is only 15 years old, plays for a youth team, and only has coverage related to a single tournament in which he played well.

Keep: I was able to find sources like [1] and [2] that mention the subject; also many other reliable sources point out that Santuri Hilmi Bey, the person considered to be the representative of this musical ensemble (or style) is the grandfather of the composer of the current Turkish national anthem, Osman Zeki Üngör. I believe there is a plausible potential to find more sources if we could search the offline archives or books, based on the references given for the subject in these kinds of academic papers.

Radio Raheem

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

This article fails WP:NFCHAR. This character does not rise to the level of significance to warrant a dedicated article. This subject can be sufficiently covered in the parent article on the film. Recommend merging it back in it there. No other character, including more significant ones, have dedicated articles either.

The film, not this specific character, are the focus of references in reliable sources. MadeYourReadThis (talk) 22:50, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment there are a lot of scholarly papers about Radio Raheem in google scholar, and these are just articles from the past few years. [5][6][7][8] I'm always on the fence about articles that focus on a key plot element, because it's unclear how you distinguish reception of the film from the reception of the events that take place during the movie. (e.g.: would we have a separate article for The ending of The Sixth Sense? Or Titanic (Vehicle from Titantic)?) At the very least, this seems like a merge as an WP:ATD. But I'd like to hear from other editors first. Shooterwalker (talk) 22:11, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:42, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If we're leaving the decision to just two editors, I don't feel comfortable deleting or merging, in this specific case. You can interpret my vote for a procedural !keep until more editors can offer an opinion. (As for the content, I reiterate that there are sources, but most of them seem to talk about him in terms of the film's ending -- that is, their analysis of the character's death is their analysis of the film itself. So I keep wondering if this is really a separate topic.) Shooterwalker (talk) 20:40, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Do the Right Thing, which already mentions some but not all of the info. There has been enough real-world impact for WP to cover this, but it's still only a character from a single movie, and the article isn't even that long. I think it would be better editorially to cover this within the film context. – sgeureka ^t•c 12:37, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Martin Lisius (with the history preserved under the redirect), where the subject is already mentioned, per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. The subject does not meet Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.
A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow editors to selectively merge any content that can be reliably sourced to the target article. A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow the redirect to be undone if significant coverage in reliable sources is found in the future. Cunard (talk) 10:46, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The only reliable source I could find is this review in Film Threat. A second reliable source is needed to establish notability. The other sources in the article are either unreliable or not significant coverage. My searches for sources did not find additional significant coverage in reliable sources.

Keep: The subject looks notable and current coverage is plenty to meet WP:BIO. Mysecretgarden (talk) 18:57, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think this article should stay on Wikipedia for a few key reasons:

Notability: The subject clearly meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines. There are multiple reliable sources that cover her work and achievements, like the CEO Magazine/Arabian Business listing her among the "Women of Influence in the Arab World 2021," and Gulf News discussing her recognition in the "Emirates Women's Award." Publications like The National have also featured her several times, covering both her professional impact and her significant charitable efforts (e.g., donations to the neonatal unit at a West Bank hospital).
Verifiability: The information in the article is backed up by credible sources like The National, Gulf News, Arabian Business, Emirates Woman, HSBC, and the London Business School. These references make the content verifiable and in line with Wikipedia's standards.
Neutrality: The article currently presents a balanced and factual view of the subject’s accomplishments and community work. It avoids promotional language and focuses on objective, sourced information.
Room for Improvement: Instead of deleting the article, we could focus on improving it. I’m happy to help by adding more sources, expanding on certain sections, and making sure the content stays neutral.
Unique Contribution: This article adds valuable information about a notable figure in the business and philanthropic sectors in the UAE, which isn’t covered elsewhere on Wikipedia. Her leadership roles, charitable work, and influence in various organizations highlight her significance, not just locally but internationally as well.

For these reasons, I believe the article should be kept. I’m also open to working with other editors to ensure it meets all of Wikipedia's guidelines.

Anabwani I of Bunyoro

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

This appears to be a hoax, or at the very least non-notable. The article was created by User:Anabwani2007, whose only edits consist of creating and editing this article, as well as adding a mention of Anabwani to Omukama of Bunyoro. None of the links presently given in the article even mention Anabwani. I wasn't able to find even a mention in reliable sources either. A Ugandan newspaper, Daily Monitor, mentions him in an article, but that's it (and their list is sourced to the monarchy's website anyway, where he's similarly merely mentioned once). toweli (talk) 19:16, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep most sources on the article are self-published, however per WP:MONARCH he is considered automatically notable as a sovereign ruler. Azarctic (talk) 23:05, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the issue is, I'm not sure if he's even real (I haven't seen a mention of him predating the 2010s), and even if we count that particular newspaper article as reliable (which I'm not certain that it is), the only thing we can say is that he existed, which isn't enough for a standalone article. toweli (talk) 23:19, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In general, the Daily Monitor holds a left-leaning editorial bias and is reasonably fact-based; however, they poorly source information. The articles does really need more reliable sources for verification which is why I made my vote a weak keep. Azarctic (talk) 11:11, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @SafariScribe -- sorry for the repost, not trying to bludgeon but still learning the mechanics here...Thanks for responding so quickly. As this individual is a music publisher and manager, rather than any kind of creative professional, I am not sure that WP:NAUTHOR applies in this instance.

@Rkg5514 At this stage it is considered an out of process thing for it to be moved during a deletion discussion, but opinions vary on that. If you, as the creating editor, request draftification then there is an argument to close this discussion to meet your request, provided no-one has offered an opinion to delete it in the intervening period. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 21:32, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If much of his notability stems from his time with the Warner Raiders, then I'd expect to see an article there. General Manager of Warner sounds like a good start (although just what is the 'General Manager' in that context?), but that would need to be sourced, and should be easily sourceable.

Hey @Timtrent thanks for alerting me -- I'll wait to see if @Brainchannels weighs in here, but briefly, I respectfully disagree with his assessment on two fronts: 1. Warner Music during the 1970s certainly was connected to hits (and I've cited artists he signed to the label) and 2. I'm just not sure "No awards. No big name association. Public doesn't recognize his face" makes somebody unnotable, especially somebody whose work is on the business end of a forward-facing field. There are no awards ceremonies for music publishers and managers to get up and take a bow, but Music Publishing is its own category on Wikipedia...

Redirect, I agree with XOR'easter's comment Gumshoe2 (talk) 01:52, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I too was leaning towards redirecting the page to the Stochastic process#Law section, which is why I chose to make AfD nomination instead of going the PROD way, but now I'm not sure it's required. Reasons:

I only saw this page because I re-enabled the newcomer dashboard which suggests articles that need editing, and the page had a banner about the lack of sources added in November 2009. So in almost 15 years the page didn't get any attention, no sources added or deletion nominations or talk page discussions.
I checked the page statistics using Xtools and Pageviews and the page has only had 31 revisions in total since it was created (including this one), and gets roughly 300 views a month on average.
On the other hand, the main page for stochastic processes has 1,173 revisions as of now and gets around 20000 views a month, and continues to be revised and updated regularly. I think it's quite possible that the few people who visited this page ended up here after reading the stochastic processes page and seeking more info. I have been a frequent visitor of the math articles here but I haven't been an editor for very long so what do you think XOR'easter, Gumshoe2, could the page be deleted without the redirect too? AradhanaChatterjee (talk) 01:02, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect But I also note that the two have quite different formulas. I suppose we can assume that the Stochastic process has had more consideration and is therefore the preferred content. Me, I don't speak that language. Lamona (talk) 23:58, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Good catch! The notations used are different, but the math is essentially the same.

Delete The definition of this term would require at most a line in an article, not an article unto itself. I concur with Headbomb: when physics people talk about points having the same electric potential, we say equipotential, not isoelectric. I suspect that an antiquated use in physics is being conflated with a use in medicine. Gathering together the different definitions of a word is a job for a dictionary, not an encyclopedia.

Draftify: While I'm not finding any immediate sources (only did a Google search), this school is definitely around 50 years old (UK incorporation documentation).

- Listings like this one from The Sunday Times are notable enough to count towards the RS coverage total of the GNG. Will keep looking, as I'm about 50/50 on whether this could work as an article. Might scrounge around some architecture books and see if anyone finds that element particularly notable. ~ Pbritti (talk) 14:19, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  I can't read that source in its entirety as it is paywalled but "School league tables: the best UK primary and secondary schools revealed" as a title does not give me confidence that this is actually significant coverage of the school itself. Rankings usually aren't. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 15:15, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Footnote 2, WP:ORGTRIV. Presumptive notability is a rare thing, but this might clear that through inclusion on such listings. ~ Pbritti (talk) 01:00, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  That footnote says If the list itself is notable, such as the Fortune 500 and the Michelin Guide, the inclusion counts like any other reliable source, but it does not exempt the article from the normal value of providing evidence that independent sources discuss the subject. I don't think that is met here. Unless you can prove that this newspaper's ranking of primary schools is notable in itself? Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 03:11, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  We're going a bit off-topic (which is fine for me; I'm not super concerned about this article but now I kinda on a kick seeing how UK schools are ranked). Looking into it, The Times's school rankings may themselves clear GNG. See [21], [22], [23]. Their rankings seem to be a standard. Again, off topic, but maybe something for me to consider looking into as a potential article sometime in the future. ~ Pbritti (talk) 03:21, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, The reason I created the article was due to the Schools inclusion in a number of articles by UK News Outlets about the continued success of the school, with it earning the title and reputation in the Liverpool region for "the best institution for primary education in Merseyside" https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/liverpool-news/best-primary-schools-merseyside-ranked-22404373 this coupled with it being featured nationally in the times schools of the year rankings. The decision to create it an article also stems from the history the schools establishment is the continuation of Woolton Hall Preparatory School, part of the history of Woolton Hall. I would also like to state that it has only been a matter of hours since the articles creation, and I believe it would be more prudent to expand the third party sourcing of this school's article rather then deleting it. I would also like to advise that it does not fall under a for-profit school due to its establishment as a registered charity for providing a school upholding the catholic faith, UK Gov Charity registration number will be added to the article to greater clarify this. Knowledgework69 (talk) 01:55, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My concern is if you can provide three reliable and independent sources that have WP:SIGCOV about the school. Wikipedia has certain guidelines for inclusion, so school rankings by themselves aren't really what I'm looking for. An AfD lasts at least 7 days so there is no need to rush. But I did not find the sourcing I was hoping to find when I looked. Drafts cannot overcome notability concerns and aren't supposed to be a backdoor to deletion, so I figured it'd be worth raising the matter now. I'm not unreasonable as long as you can provide that sourcing, I'd withdraw. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 02:55, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That is not what I need to prove the school's notability. I need significant coverage. Can you find sources that meet what's described there? I haven't been able to yet. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 02:59, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The School was featured in two books published in 2022 and 2023 respectively information pertaining to them can now be found on the article under the School section. Knowledgework69 (talk) 03:06, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A children's book featuring the school's mascot is not SIGCOV about the school itself. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 04:04, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Even if you can overcome the notability hurdle, there's still the promotional issue. The entire lede consists of promotional items not discussed elsewhere in the article. A lede for a school article should include the town and political division where the school is located; the name of the lowest level administrative authority that controls it, and a brief summary of the high points of the rest of the article. Also, you should arrange the sections of the article as outlined at WP:WPSCH/AG. Further, there is a bunch of flowery language scattered throughout the article. A good rule of thumb is, you cannot say anything either good or bad about the school in Wikipedia's voice. You need to directly quote a reliable secondary source that is completely independent of the school. I'd lean towards draftifying the article to give the author time to work on all the issues. 4.37.252.50 (talk) 17:23, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify. I found four reliable sources in this article with significant coverage:

There are three additional sources on two books about the school's mascot and school motto, ‘They Can Because They Think They Can’:

However, the text in the History section needs to be re-worked, preferably using chronological order and a simplified narrative. It would be useful to differentiate between the history of the buildings the school has occupied from the various iterations of the school's title and organization. Primary schools seldom meet the referencing requirements of WP:GNG, but this one now does, thanks to WP:HEY effort of Knowledgework69. It's kind of like a diamond in the rough... it just needs some polishing now. — Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 22:34, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Genocide of Bosniaks in World War II

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

There already exists an article on this topic at Chetnik war crimes in World War II#Genocide of Muslims and Croats where the matter is extensively covered with quality sources (Bosniaks at this time were referred to as Muslims). On the other hand, this article has major issues. Much of the content is cherrypicked, unsourced and engaging in WP:SYNTH.

The table of massacres in the casualties and demographics section is unsourced; meanwhile the Chetnik war crimes article discusses the massacres in detailed prose form. It also wrongly implicates the Yugoslav Partisans, a multi-ethnic anti-fascist guerilla movement in genocide. The casualties listed by Žerjavić and Kočović are the totals of Muslims killed in the entirety of Yugoslavia by every faction and all causes, not only victims of genocide.

An alternative could also be to redirect the page to Chetnik war crimes in World War II#Genocide of Muslims and Croats as "Genocide of Bosniaks in World War II" is a plausible title. Griboski (talk) 18:01, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Crime, Events, History, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Yugoslavia. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 18:15, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This page is specifically directed to the genocide of Bosniaks, who were targeted by not only the Chetniks but also accounts exist of crimes from the Partisans (such as in Prijedor) and the Bosniak Muslims who were sent into the Jasenovac concentration camp (although not listen within this page). Plus, I wonder by what criteria is the contect "cherrypicked", the page is still relatively new and hasn't been edited that much, I'm feeling a bit of bias here. :) Vedib (talk) 15:44, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. While you do make a good point that the casualties section for the individual massacres needs sources, it is very clear that those are copied from the already existing article on the list of massacres in Yugoslavia in World War II. This can be fairly easily fixed by adding the necessary source tags. Also, how and where does the article imply that the Yugoslav Partisans engaged in genocide / massacres? The only given perpetrators are the Chetniks, and I don’t see anywhere else in the article them being listed, except for a few incidents in 1941 where they did indeed engage in massacres when they were still temporarily aligned with the Chetniks. Aliy Dawut (talk) 19:11, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that it discusses the Partisans is a minor thing. The bigger issue is that it doesn't make sense to have two articles discussing the same topic. --Griboski (talk) 19:44, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well if you care to re-review the page, I removed several unsourced massacres and massacres that were NOT committed solely by the Chetniks. I do not believe a simple and flexible issue like this justifies deletion of an article that cites 21 RS Aliy Dawut (talk) 19:49, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Neither you or Ali are addressing the main concern.

80-90% of the content in the Chetnik war crimes in World War II article is about the genocidal atrocities of the Chetniks against the Croats and Muslims (Bosniaks).

This article, which was recently created, deals with the genocide against Muslims, which is already covered extensively there. That's where an AfD discussion comes in, to see if an article should be deleted, or redirected, because it duplicates an already existing topic. --Griboski (talk) 02:00, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If anything, the stuff about Jews and Partisans can be moved from the Chetnik war crimes article so that it focuses solely on Croats and Muslims. If someone at some point split off and made an article focusing only on Croats, that would leave us with 3 articles discussing the same topics. And you would have to repeat much of the same background information and statistics and so on. But this doesn't make sense. As the primary victims of the Chetniks, bibliography tends to discuss Croats and Muslims together in this context. --Griboski (talk) 02:10, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If the article were to indeed get deleted or merged, what would be your thoughts on including the upper estimate of 100,000 Bosniak deaths in the infobox of the Chetnik war crimes in World War II given that it already seems to be a fairly undisputed consensus that the Chetniks killed more Bosniaks/Muslims than they did Croats? I think that seems like a very fair and sensible compromise, no? Aliy Dawut (talk) 03:20, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not impossible but seems high to me, maybe even WP:FRINGE, when you consider that both Kocovic and Zerjavic calculated about 100,000 total Bosniak deaths during the war of all causes. --Griboski (talk) 16:04, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Eh, I don’t think that really can be considered fringe, a lower bound of 29,000-33,000 and an upper bound of 100,000 seems pretty reasonable and standard to me, and as I said I think that would be a good compromise to this dispute Aliy Dawut (talk) 18:56, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, as part of my above suggestion for a compromise, I also think that per the sources, the Croat and Bosniak casualties from the Chetniks should be separately divided on that article, as the sources all tend to make a distinction in their figures Aliy Dawut (talk) 06:29, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Jason Vukovich

WP:BLP1E. Per WP:CRIMINAL, "a person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article", unless "the motivation/execution of the crime... is a well-documented historic event". In this case, none of the reliable sources suggest any historic, social or otherwise serious significance to his 4-day robbery spree from 2016 [24].

This academic book co-authored by Vukovich in which he was "given a chance to tell" his own story alongside 7+ felons is not secondary, independent of the subject or primarily about him. At best, this case could become one sentence at Vigilantism in the United States#Other_episodes. Badbluebus (talk) 17:26, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Crime, United States of America, and Alaska. Badbluebus (talk) 17:26, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There are also some serious BLP concerns here. Only a few sources in the article look reputable, others look unreliable or WP:SENSATIONAL such as WP:NYPOST, "Talk Murder True Crime Blog", WP:USERGENERATED true crime publisher "vocal media", pseudoscientific horoscope news website "yourtango", WP:FOXNEWS, fringe news website with a "paranormal" series "thoughtnova", fringe blog about "horror stories, conspiracy theories, Murder Mysteries, Alien Life" buggedspeace, citizen vigilante blog geordiechasers). The "hit list" section, that accuses three living people of sexual crimes, is greatly sourced by unreliable sources such as the aforementioned. Badbluebus (talk) 17:31, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. With regard to WP:CRIMINAL, the key word here is separate article. We don't have an article on the crime so that doesn't apply, this is not a "separate article" of anything.

I'm not going to vote keep because all the later sources are either bad (all that's interesting, thoughtnova or those weird seo article type things) or just "police said this" or his sentencing announcement without further commentary which isn't great. Just want to correct that. The least bad source is the Anchorage Daily Times ones but overall the sourcing here is very low quality. Not going to vote delete (yet) either because I haven't done a before check for better sources outside the page. PARAKANYAA (talk) 18:03, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

About that, the guideline says that "Where there are no appropriate existing articles [about the crime itself], the criminal or victim in question should be the subject of a Wikipedia article only if one of the following applies", citing the standards about historical significance or victim relevance. So I believe it applies to this page. Badbluebus (talk) 20:41, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My reading of the second criterion of the perpetrator section seems to read more along it being determined by "sustained coverage of the event" dedicating focus to the role of the person, or the "motivation for the crime or the execution of the crime is unusual" (which this probably does qualify under if the coverage was better), as demonstrated by sigcov. The coverage here is not good but I still disagree with the way the nomination is phrased.

After having done a before check, I vote delete because there is not a lot useful here. I found a 1 paragraph mention in an academic study on the unintended affects of the sex offender registry. Theoretically this could be an interesting, brief note in an article about that but we don't have an applicable one. PARAKANYAA (talk) 00:53, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Coverage in the New York Post in the article already and in local Alaska media [25], I don't think it's enough coverage to build an article with. Would like to have seen better sources like ABC or CNN or the like. Oaktree b (talk) 22:59, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I went through and removed most, if not all, of the fringe sources. I didn't touch the text. This makes it easier (to me) to see if there are enough good sources for the article. This leaves a lot of the content unsourced. I may cycle back to !vote. Lamona (talk) 01:43, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify. NBAD is irrelevant when NSPORT itself is not met. The Hochi link does seem to cover her playing beyond the one tournament, but it is not enough to overcome the stricter SIGCOV requirements in place for high school-age athletes (which she was at the time). Draftifying might give people a bit more time to find more recent sources. The other two links identified above are pretty routine tournament recaps. JoelleJay (talk) 02:07, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What is the point of having the WP:SNG guideline if they are not given some level of deference? I agree that writing this article was likely premature but the fact remains that as of September 1, 2024, she has now passes a subject-specific notability guideline. In the spirit of ignore all rules, I don't see the point of deleting an article now when the guideline states that she now meets a level where significant coverage is likely to exist (or will very soon exist). Wikipedia is not served by deleting articles for individuals for whom "appropriate sourcing likely exists" just to recreate them.

If you disagree with WP:NBAD, then think it would be better to get a consensus to change the guideline itself instead of arguing for selective circumvention. DCsansei (talk) 11:39, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not Sure': I updated existing references and added some additional ones. It looks like the band was active 2008-2015 and then again in 2018 with Vantine and others. For the reformed band in 2018, the references I found list different people than the article originally named (I changed the article to reflect what's in the sources). The originally named people are in pictures that are part of the article but I can't find any sources that link them directly to "The Fleeting Ends". There is coverage of this band in the local Philly outlets that cover indie bands, it's more limited outside - I see some newspaper articles that announced tour dates and the Popmatters magazine article about a release in 2018.

Comment: To describe the Australian Dictionary of Biography as “effectively original research” suggests a total misunderstanding of Australian History and makes a mockery of Wikipedia editors and their understanding of what they are doing.

Comment to the objection that “there are sources” my response as nominator is that I don’t doubt that the subject is the author of multiple books. What there is not is anything that demonstrates notability. We don’t allow bio articles sourced almost entirely to online shopping sites with dead links. In addition not a single detail of the subject’s life is even verifiable based on the refs in the article or anything else I can find in English. I don’t think it’s acceptable to retain an entirely unverified bio on the strength of a claim that “there are sources.” Mccapra (talk) 06:11, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I tend to agree with the advice in the essay linked in the nomination. If we're going to write about kids, we need to be careful. Relevant to the present case are the admonishments, Students are not notable prodigies for their performance as students, no matter how advanced they are in their work, and Prodigious children who demonstrate skill in mathematics or science are expected to have published works on a par with their notable adult academic peers. Another pertinent concern is the general idea of not having a whole article about a person only known for one thing. Only one event has been covered with any degree of reliability, namely his admission into NYU, and that's being very generous to the silly season reporting. On the whole, I'm just not seeing a notability case that is strong enough to outweigh the concerns here. XOR'easter (talk) 20:13, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus‎. Star Mississippi 13:08, 15 September 2024 (UTC) I was asked to review my close by Habst and have done so. While I still see this as N/C, I'm going to expand on my close that it's more helpful for the future. We have a situation here where sourcing (non-English, offline) exists. While there is no need for sourcing to be in English, and its existence or a lack thereof has no bearing on notability for en wiki, it does make source assessment more challenging. We have Ljleppan uncertain about whether its sufficient, Alvaldi making a case that proximity of sourcing is non issue and a broader disagreement as to the independence of interviews. The latter is an issue that really needs meta discussion as it regularly comes up at AfDs and I don't think is resolved. Having re-read this twice in Habst's request, I still find myself in the same place. I would suggest that before anyone considers bringing this back to AfD that they spend the effort researching and accessing (ref exchange board, Finnish & Swedish speaking editors) sourcing to see if the state of the article can be improved.

Delete. No independent, reliable sources found that show significant coverage as proof of notability. Prof.PMarini (talk) 10:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment At least some Finnish-language coverage exists, with e.g. these two pieces by by Yle Uutiset discussing his troubles in the 2023 Budapest world championships at length: [40], [41]. The same event was covered by e.g. Ilta-Sanomat [42]. That said, I'd view these as essentially one piece of newswork for notability purposes. Other than that, it's mostly your bog-standard sports coverage [43], or tiny local newspapers [44]. There is a piece by Aamulehti [45], but it's paywalled and I can't say whether it's just the standard "we interviewed an athlete" fare that contributes little-to-nothing towards notability, or something more extensive. Iltalehti has a short piece about him retiring [46], but it's quite a short piece with lots of quotes. All told, not the worst coverage I've seen, but neither is it anything that would make this a slam dunk in my eyes. I'd feel much more comfortable coming down on the keep side of the fence if there was at least one more solid non-interview piece in relation to something else than the Budapest events. Based on my (very brief) search, I'm rather ambivalent. -Ljleppan (talk) 16:00, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'll just emphasize here, as both Habst and Alvaldi have referenced these news pieces in their !votes: I think the Finnish-language coverage is weak. The strongest pieces of content (Budapest troubles) are less about the subject and more about the events in which he got involved in: they say fairly little about Ojala himself, and thus do little to establish the notability of Ojala. Similarly, most of the other stories are either wholly or in large part interviews, i.e. the subject talking about themself. To my understanding, these have been traditionally held to have little-to-no value for establishing notability. Yes, there is coverage relating to the subject, but there is little independent coverage about the subject in specific. There is no encyclopedic value in a quote of the subject saying they had a tough competition at some event or another, and they plan to train hard in the future. Ljleppan (talk) 06:51, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Ljleppan, I greatly respect your contributions to this discussion and have thought about what you said. I do disagree with your assessment about the Finnish sources. For example, in [47] it's mentioned in the free preview that his "life will change" (translated) due to his retirement. Surely life-changing events are worth covering if a news organization deems it fit to write an article about it? In addition, the subject is specifically the sole topic of coverage. Re: interviews, I don't agree with that assessment. I've spoken with other experienced editors about interviews and they can actually have substantial value in establishing notability. For an interesting admin comment about interviews, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pietro Farina (athlete). I also wouldn't anticipate the type of quotes mentioned to be in the retirement article, because it's about his retirement so he wouldn't have to train for anything in the future. Thanks, --Habst (talk) 12:14, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Habst: the significant problem with Urjalan Sanomat in specific is that it's a hyperlocal newspaper, serving a municipality of approximately 4.5k people. Having a piece (notably, of unknown length and depth as it's paywalled) about someone in it is hardly indicative of any kind of meaningful notability. Ljleppan (talk) 14:45, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And I might as well mark myself down as a weak delete for now, absent further sourcing that provides intellectually independent and significant coverage about the article subject in specific. Ljleppan (talk) 14:50, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ljleppan, thanks for the response. I think that point is valid when the story is only circulated in physical print, but the Urjalan Sanomat is an online article so the potential audience is much wider. Also, just because we don't have access to a source doesn't mean it can't be used to assert notability; per WP:NEXISTS, simply knowing that sources must exist is enough to assert the notability of a subject and keep an article. --Habst (talk) 14:55, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This misrepresents the point of WP:NEXISTS: it points out that the notability-establishing sources do not necessarily need to be located in the article. But simply pointing at a paywalled article you have no access to (as far as I can see) is not sufficient: someone needs to be able to actually access the source and provide an assessment of whether it is the type of content we generally view as notability-indicative. Otherwise it is merely an unsupported assertion. Ljleppan (talk) 15:02, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Ljleppan, I don't think that interpretation of WP:NEXISTS is backed up by the text or idea of the policy. Yes, sources don't need to be in the article – but that's simply not the only application of NEXISTS. Per Wikipedia policty the mere possibility of sources existing – a bar which I think has both been passed and not sufficiently rebutted in this case – must be considered by editors in deletion discussions. So of course, if paywalled articles can be found that are clearly solely about the subject, they should be considered regardless of whether we have access right now on the basis that a future editor could use it. I've seen articles about award winners kept in the past based on the fact that typically winners of their award have plaques written about them as part of the award, and that plaque could count as SIGCOV despite us not actually having a picture or the text of the plaque.

With great respect, I would be eager to strike any unsupported assertions I've made because I think it's important to discuss based on facts. I don't think it's appropriate to imply that another editor would do that without pointing to a specific statement that is both asserted and unsupported. --Habst (talk) 14:32, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that there is no policy that disqualifies local coverage from counting towards notability. Proposals to reject local sources from showing a subjects notability was last rejected in 2018. Alvaldi (talk) 17:31, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, I was very surprised by the depth of coverage found above thanks to hard work of Geschichte and Ljleppan. I think any argument to delete needs to directly rebut the 13 sources found in this discussion. For example, the recent retirement article I would say is significant, independent, and reliable to challenge @Prof.PMarini in particular. --Habst (talk) 19:29, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
First of all, you have to admit that the sources Ljleppan listed would not appear in a customary WP:BEFORE search. He/she himself said that despite the sources found it "would not make a slam dunk" and he/she is "ambivalent." Plus, the sources still do not quite meet WP:SIGCOV about the subject of the article, Athletics World is focused on the doctor and just mentions Ojala; yle.fi was cited three times, but they are a mix of interviews, so may count as primary source, not useful as proof of notability. So my comment is still a Weak Delete at best. And anyway, I am just participating in a discussion and would not in any way take it personally if the consensus happens to not be the same as what my interpretation of the matter is. Additional edit: Plus, I only read English Wikipedia. If Geschichte had to search in Swedish to find sources, perhaps it is better wriiten in the Swedish Wikipedia and later translated. If readers and editors need to expend so much effort to prove a subject's notability, maybe the subject is not notable enough. Prof.PMarini (talk) 02:01, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've added a comment above expanding my view on the Finnish language sources (they are rather weak, in my view), but I'll just note here that there is no requirement for sources to be in English. See WP:GNG, stating "Sources may encompass published works in (...) in any language." and "Sources do not have to be (...) written in English.", as well as WP:NONENG. Ljleppan (talk) 06:54, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Prof.PMarini, thanks for engaging, I think this type of discussion is what makes Wikipedia better. First of all, you have to admit that the sources Ljleppan listed would not appear in a customary WP:BEFORE search. -- I don't agree with this assessment, in Ljleppan's own words their search was "very brief". A WP:BEFORE should be able to catch any sources found in a very brief search. I think that the sources do meet the bar for SIGCOV -- I have looked extensively into Wikipedia policy on interviews in the past, and I've concluded that according to policy, they actually do not count as primary sources if they are published by news organizations because the news organizations have editorial processes and are staking their reputations on the veracity of the claims. There is no Wikipedia policy that says that interviews cannot contribute to establishing notability. Thanks, --Habst (talk) 12:24, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding "[interviews] actually do not count as primary sources if they are published by news organizations because the news organizations have editorial processes and are staking their reputations on the veracity of the claims," this is blatantly incorrect. News organizations printing "X said that Y" does not indicate the news organization is vouching for the claims Y, but that X indeed claimed Y. Ljleppan (talk) 14:57, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Ljleppan, that may or may not always play out in the off-wiki world, but according to Wikipedia policy that statement is certainly correct. I'm not referring to when cases where a newspaper gets a quote from someone – that's not an interview article but merely reporting that someone said something. An interview article is something more like that in the Pietro Farina case, where the article is written as a transcript as if the interviewee had written the article, without contextual framing around every quote.

Per Geschichte's comment, there are many non-interview articles in this case anyways, so the point is kind of moot. --Habst (talk) 14:40, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Interviews are almost always primary sources w/r/t to the content directly attributed to the person being interviewed, as is the plain reading of "accounts (..) by people who are directly involved" and as is explained in the footnote stating "Further examples of primary sources include: (..) interviews", both from WP:PRIMARY. Interview articles can also include non-primary content by the journalist who authored the article (this is normal, almost all non-tertiary content is primary-in-part), but not all content in it is categorically primary. Ljleppan (talk) 21:25, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think we agree, then, except for Interviews are almost always primary sources. It simply depends on context and framing, and I've not seen any evidence that the sources presented in this AfD are "solely primary" interviews. --Habst (talk) 22:06, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Marini - I searched in Swedish because Swedish is an official language of Ojala's country of origin. The YLE articles are not interviews though they contain quotes among other things.

Leaning delete. No, interviews do not contribute to notability unless they contain significant secondary, independent background commentary by the author. The mere fact that someone was interviewed does not in any way constitute IRS SIGCOV, and obviously nothing the subject says about themselves, including content like "he said X" or "he claims X" stated outside of direct quotes, is independent or secondary. The Yle interview has material that looks facially independent, but it is intercalated with quotes and simply recaps what he said rather than providing analysis. That is not background, that is interview content. The Aamulehti piece seems to be a routine local-interest story, though we can't actually see what it contains so we cannot claim it is SIGCOV. Ditto for Urjalan Sanomat. The story (and the two links count as only one story) about him collapsing is a routine, primary news report. Essentially all we have is the Yle interview, and that just isn't independent enough to meet SPORTSCRIT #5. JoelleJay (talk) 01:58, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@JoelleJay, ythanks, I think that the admin closing statement of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pietro Farina (athlete) demonstrates that interviews can be used to demonstrate notability unless there's some new consensus I'm not aware of. I think a better way to think about it is to not use the word "interview" as a reason for discounting sources in this discussion because Wikipedia consensus demonstrates that whether or not a source is an interview simply has no bearing on its usefulness or applicability to AfDs.

As a compromise, would you consider postponing under the WP:NEXISTS policy until we can get access to the Aamulehti and Urjalan Sanomat sources that we know exist? I do think that the Aamulehti piece is more than just local interest; it has the second-largest circulation in all of Finland, and it's one of the most visited websites in the country. Is there any other country where we would consider a piece by the second-largest publication "local"? --Habst (talk) 16:40, 12 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Who said that?You?And what are you a historian to tell us what is true and what is not? North Epirote Insurgency In South Albania is a real historical event you can ask historians and tell you it is true but only your (Personal attack removed) will disagree, because you guys only want to be the best, but you are nowhere near that.I even provided sources but you still disagree Henrikurti (talk) 11:55, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per nom. All of the sources in the article lack page numbers, and are essentially impossible to verify. The nominator tagged them with {{page needed}} ten days ago (diff), and still, the issue remains. What's bizarre, is that less than one-and-a-half hours after the creation of the article by User:Henrikurti (initial revision), who added a bunch of – apparently – random URLs at the end of the page in response to their identically-titled draft getting rejected one day earlier due to lack of sources and sufficient context (diff), User:Randomuser2412 appeared, and arbitrarily moved these general references within the body of the article as inline citations (diff). Demetrios1993 (talk) 02:30, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Where exactly does the article detail its purported topic? I see only context and what the Albanians, Italy, and Greece did, but no details on the actual insurgency... And that is leaving aside what exactly constitutes an 'insurgency' in the conditions of WWII-era Albania, which was occupied by foreign powers (Italians and Germans), with several different resistance groups competing for control, and where no clearly recognized Albanian government existed (if it was the Axis puppet governments, then any action against them falls under resistance). So far all I can see is a polemically-titled article with nothing to back it up. Constantine ✍ 17:51, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for deletion/Jon Gibson (Christian musician) (2nd nomination)

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

I propose this article for deletion because there are many, many, many "sources" but which are often profiles and biographies sometimes written by the artist himself and anonymous users, the sourcing is horrible and it is difficult to find your way around, if the article is eligible it is absolutely necessary to rework the sourcing, I tried to improve it, but... SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 23:43, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also a lot of these "sources" come from databases like AllMusic, are there any press articles or better quality elements? SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 01:10, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: I have applied {{subst:afd2}} to this nomination, which did not previously have the full AfD formatting. No opinion or comment. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 05:21, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep has had a No.1 hit album and other hits on Billboards Top Christian Albums chart and also has coverage in album reviews on reliable sources such as AllMusic and CrossRythmns. Also this is significant coverage with a byeline here, and also here. The article can be rewritten or shortened but AfD is not for clean-up purposes, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 18:48, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Atlantic306, I am not against keeping the article and you may be right about the non-necessity of this Afd, I could not find where I could make this type of request. But in the current state the article should be put back in draft and be republished later when a sorting of sources will be done because the article is hardly clear in the current state SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 09:56, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, although it happens articles older than 6 months are not supposed to be moved to draft so if it is kept it needs to be fixed while in mainspace, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 19:40, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The sourcing on this article is a mess. Far, far too many citations to sources that don't help with notability, which makes assessing it very difficult. I have gone through every single reference and found exactly one that in my opinion shows notability: Soultracks bio, which looks like an independent and in-depth biography. Doing a search, I have found: Hot Hits book, a little snippet; Charisma and Christian Life, a frustratingly obscured piece that looks to be mostly about an album but I can't be sure. The second source Atlantic306 has noted is an interview, which cannot contribute to notability (sorry).

In short, based on the sources I could find, delete. It feels like there should be enough RS somewhere out there, but they're not in the article and I can't find enough to say keep. Atlantic306, do you have access to any offline sources that are pushing you towards keep? He seems like he ought to be notable...maybe some of his albums are notable and we could redirect? StartGrammarTime (talk) 07:45, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I don't have access to any offline sources but there are quite a few book results in a google search which I cant assess unfortunately as either its a small snippet given or none at all. Reviews of his music do count towards notability so I would include the reviews on CrossRythmns and on AllMusic (the paragraph ones, not the single sentence ones), imv Atlantic306 (talk) 19:55, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: SparklingBlueMoon, why is this AFD called Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jon Gibson (Christian musician) (2nd nomination) when there has been no Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jon Gibson (Christian musician) nor a Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jon Gibson? Why is this the 2nd nomination? Was there a previous AFD under a different page title? Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:07, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Liz, when I tried to make the nomination manually a message told me that there had already been a result before but it is not impossible that it was an error. SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 22:10, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Richard McDonald (academic)

Fails WP:NACADEMIC. He worked for some important organizations in non-major roles. I see no sign of any influential scientific publication of his on a reputable journal, or any terminal degree for that matter.

Delete unless somebody can find evidence of cites or reviews. Xxanthippe (talk) 01:15, 7 September 2024 (UTC).[reply]
His publication is released in December, and so these are forthcoming JapaneseWoodblocks (talk) 10:21, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, creation of page was due to unusual and niche academic field of minority religions in prison, which is the topic of his first publication due for release in 2024. His terminal degree was completed at Birkbeck Dept. Of Psychosocial Studies but I can’t find a citation for this so I didn’t include. On the ‘non major roles point’ - understood, but he held the role ‘Head of Policy’ for HMPPS in 2023 which feels notable? Apols if I’ve made it sound like an advert JapaneseWoodblocks (talk) 10:10, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi thanks for making this page. If I can make the case a bit more: is a nascent academic but in a niche and unusual field of writing about Norse paganism in prison which distinguishes his contribution and his first publication is a book chapter with Bloomsbury coming out in December.

He sits on various policy and governance boards for national organisations including charities (Traveller movement) and the Magistrate’s association. I know he sits on several more including the Uni of Sheffield but can’t cite this.

I don’t want it to read like an advert, just an encyclopaedia entry for a niche academic who works at the intersections of religion and penology. JapaneseWoodblocks (talk) 10:20, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Unable to find anything to contribute to notability. ResonantDis_tortion 23:41, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:TOOSOON. No sign whatsoever of NPROF notability. NAUTHOR would generally require multiple works with multiple reviews (a single work reviewed work would be better handled with an article about that work). A single work is unlikely to cut it, even if reviews could be found. Little sign of GNG notability (see WP:INTERVIEWS concerning the interview with the Magistrates Association), although the relatively common name may make searching tricky.
