Article started by an apparent SPA with 2 basic sentences and nothing substantiating independent notability and substance, the listed sources are still only 1-time mentions, with none of them being substantial in-depth coverage and a simple enough search mirrored it; as with these subjects, there's no automatic inherited notability from anything or anyone. SwisterTwister talk 23:47, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Delete Yeah, I even recognized his name, distinctive as it is, from one of the movies he's been in, but there's no applicable coverage or distinction to meet WP:GNG or WP:ENTERTAINER. Largoplazo (talk) 00:20, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

Sources are insufficient to establish WP:GNG and are not RS (includes her bio on her PR firms's website, etc.). DarjeelingTea (talk) 23:43, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

- Delete - Article doesn't establish notability. Article lacks independent reliable sources. Google searches produces nothing to show notability. CBS527Talk 01:53, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- Keep: Article needs a LOT of work, but clearly had sources -- Someone didn't do their WP:BEFORE, she's got a fair bit of coverage in major magazines and web sites. Oxygen is an independent source and fairly major. I also found stuff on her in Ebony (major African American lifestyle magazine), assorted women's and African-American lifestyle sites: Madame Noire (women's site), [1] Black America Web, and other sites serving the African-American and entrepreneurial community:[2], [3], [4]; travel sites: [5], [6] . Plus other random stuff: [7]. This one meets GNG. Montanabw(talk) 11:51, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- While I agree Ebony is RS, I question whether the small blogs and company websites you listed: "She's Wanderful" blog (Alex rank 535,044 [8]), "Brooklyn Buttah" blog (Alexa rank 12,543,151 [9]), "Leisure Group Travel" blog (Alexa rank 1,818,178 [10]), the company website of the PR firm J. Walter Thompson, etc., meet our WP:RS standards for a WP:BLP? DarjeelingTea (talk) 12:48, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- I think it's so bad that WP:TNT and WP:SPAM applies -- and I've no interest in trying to fix it as it seems sure to be a magnet for more spam. Regardless of whether Montanabw is right about WP:GNG, delete per TNT. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:56, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

Considered this as possible A10 for Mexico–United States barrier or Immigration_policy_of_Donald_Trump#U.S..E2.80.93Mexico_border_wall_proposal, but figured it might be controversial so brining it to AfD. The "great wall" is by no means the common name for the Trump proposal, and our existing articles on the subject more than cover it with this simply being a content fork from either the barrier article or the Trump immigration policy article. There is no need for this article in Wikipedia at this time. I TonyBallioni (talk) 21:53, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

- For now, simply redirect to
Immigration_policy_of_Donald_Trump#U.S..E2.80.93Mexico_border_wall_proposalExecutive Order 13767. Do not redirect to Mexico–United States barrier, as that is an article on the current structure, not Trump's highly notable plan, and there isbasically nomuch less content on the plan there -- nor should there be. Such a redirect would confuse and mislead readers. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:01, 11 February 2017 (UTC) - Delete. The topic is obviously notable but it's already covered elsewhere. I don't think there's a need for the redirect since "in US-Mexico border" is ungrammatical and unlikely to come up. It would anyway need to be re-redirected later if a new wall is constructed and gets its own article. If it is to be made a redirect, it could go to either Mexico–United_States_barrier#Trump_administration or Immigration_policy_of_Donald_Trump#U.S..E2.80.93Mexico_border_wall_proposal. Mortee (talk) 17:00, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

- Oh yes that would be the best redirect target, at this stage. I've modified my comment above. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 18:11, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
- My main issue with a redirect at this stage is that because it is currently grammatically incorrect (I would have moved before AfD if I had noticed at the time), and that even if made "Great wall on the US-Mexico border", I doubt such a specific search term would be used, so I'm not sure the utility of a redirect.

Montano has been a bit part actress, specializing in unnamed roles. The commercials and music videos do not add up. The list of political candidates she has supported may sound impressive, but it is unclear anything she did to support them makes her notable. In fact it is not clear what she did to support them at all. Said she did? that is not notable. donated to their campaigns? Generally not notable.

Biography of a living person known for one event only CatapultTalks (talk) 20:39, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- This article is notable for the following reasons:
- 1. Two U.S. citizens are being harmed. The children.
- 2. This is not about notably of an event but information about the consequences of Trump change in deportation policy.
- 3. There will likely be a court challenge and likely a stay on the deportation that harms two delicate U.S. citizens.
- I would prefer the focus of the article to not be about the mother, but about the two children who are being harmed. You may know that a mother sacrifices her life for her children and gives everything she has for them, out of love. Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 20:54, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Please feel free to add as much reliablly sourced information about the harmful effects that this is having on the children as you can find. But that doesn't mean that the mother's coverage in the article should be reduced. The article can cover both the mother and the children to the degree that is necessary to inform the readers about what is going on. Bk33725681 (talk) 20:08, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

- Tentative delete - certainly Trump's immigration policy represents a huge and notable change from the past. Ms. García de Rayos's role as an early example of an immigrant affected by Trump's policies therefore certainly merits mention in some of those articles. It is not clear to me as yet whether her own role is notable enough to merit a separate article. Rosa Parks, for example, is notable because she became a major focal point of the civil rights movement. If Ms. García de Rayos becomes a similar icon in the fight against Trump's policies she will be similarly notable. However I think it is too early to say whether she will be notable for more than just this one incident. This incident--although obviously devastating to her family--may not be sufficiently notable in the more public sphere to warrant a separate article. My views could change, however, even in the time it takes for this discussion to run its course if, for example, Ms. García de Rayos emerges as an ongoing leader in the fight against Trump's policies. If, however, her public role turns out to be limited to this one incident, she should be mentioned in other articles but there is no need for a separate article for Ms. García de Rayos.

- I agree it is not notable because of the Mom. I find it notable because of the continued harm to two teenage citizens. Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 20:08, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- At least as yet, I don't think it is notable for that reason either. It doesn't go into any detail on the impact to the two children from reliable sources. For example, it mentions that the daughter wants to be a doctor. One can speculate that this might be affected by the mother's deportation. But it only becomes notable for that reason if there are reliable sources (not speculation by Wikipedians) that go into how the childrens' lives have been affected. Right now the article is basically a brief article about the deportation of the mother, not the children. I do agree with Bk33725681 that changing the article to be specifically about the deportation is an improvement. Dash77 (talk) 21:51, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

- Now that it has been moved to "Deportation of Guadalupe García de Rayos" I probably tend towards Keep. So far I feel that neither the mother nor her children are notable for more than this one event. However with the focus of the article shifted to this one event, it becomes notable because there has been a sea change in US immigration policy--which seems likely to last, possibly with changes, for at least four years. As such this is a notable event marking that change. Dash77 (talk) 19:35, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

Delete Unelected candidates for political office do not meet the criteria set out in WP:Politician and are usually deleted, unless the subject meets WP:GNG before their campaign WP:POLOUTCOMES. The existing consensus is that races for public office may be notable, (e.g. United States Senate election in North Carolina, 2014 ) and that unelected candidates fall under WP:ONEEVENT. --Enos733 (talk) 17:15, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- That's a helpful comment, but if you check the links, you'll see he's received coverage before he ran for office. Could you share more about the emerging consensus? It wouldn't make much sense to include coverage of the Republican Primary in Utah's Third District without a wikilink to the candidate's page, would it? This is a national level race.Bangabandhu (talk) 17:23, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- Also, could you clarify how you read WP:POLOUTCOMES to suggest deletion? It says that pages of national level candidates are deleted after their campaign is unsuccessful. Nothing says implicitly or explicitly that it should be removed before. Bangabandhu (talk) 17:51, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- I think that WP:POLOUTCOMES needs some updating based on the past few years of developed consensus. It is the usual outcome now that "candidates for office below the national level who are otherwise non-notable are generally deleted" (striking the leading word losing). The reason for this development is that races for political office fit under WP:ONEEVENT, and that in general, since notability is not temporary, the candidates themselves do not become notable outside of the campaign (event). In addition, for many candidates, the wiki page is sourced to primary sourced material (including campaign websites). The general guidance is that candidates may "still clear the bar if they have received national or international press coverage, beyond the scope of what would ordinarily be expected for their role." --Enos733 (talk) 20:21, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
- No, POLOUTCOMES does not say that national-level candidates are deleted only after the election results roll in and they've lost. It doesn't matter whether the election is in the past, the present or the future — if a person has not already held a political office that clears NPOL, then they don't get an article because candidate. A non-winning candidate might still clear a notability guideline for some other reason, such as already having held another notable office (e.g. having lost the presidency is not going to get Hillary Clinton deleted, because she has been the First Lady and a senator and a cabinet official) or having preexisting notability in another career (e.g. Al Franken was already notable as a writer and comedian, so his eligibility for an article did not have to wait until he won his senate seat) — but a person who can make no claim of preexisting notability is not eligible for a Wikipedia article because of the candidacy per se.

- Strong delete This is basically a campaign brouchure for Kidd. He is a one-issue candidate for the party nomination for the US house. If he gets elected to the US house he will be notable, if he does not he almost certainly will not be.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:59, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
- What leads you to believe he is a single issue candidate? I see many different issues in the entry, from his stance on abortion to his position on DC self determination. If you're concerned that its too self-promoting, why not edit it to include a more balanced view? I don't understand how this "consensus" is in the best interest of Wikipedia's mission or its reader's interest, and question whether it is widely accepted.Bangabandhu (talk) 02:21, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
Strong keep Kidd is an important figure in an important race. He has received attention far outside of his home district - please see the references from DCist, Politico and other national publications. There is room for improvement in his entry and I hope other editors will make those changes rather than deleting. WP:NPOL does not instruct to delete entries before an election, only after, if a candidate is unsuccessful. I am confused why that is not applied in this case. Bangabandhu (talk) 15:42, 12 February 2017 (UTC)

- Why do you say that? Every sentence is referenced to reliable, impartial sources.Bangabandhu (talk) 02:11, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. As yet unelected candidates for office do not get Wikipedia articles because candidate, in and of itself — a non-winning candidate might have preexisting notability for other reasons independent of the candidacy (e.g. already having held another notable office, or already having passed our notability standards in another career), but does not pass WP:NPOL until they win the election. Nothing stated or sourced here, however, demonstrates that he's notable for anything more than being a future candidate. Our role is not to be a repository of campaign brochures for every candidate in every election. Bearcat (talk) 22:26, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
- You're right that as soon as you become a candidate, you don't automatically qualify for a Wikipedia page. But if you do become a candidate, and you do gain national attention, and you do make important, noteworthy stances, then you do reach notability. In this instance - and many others - editors are misinterpreting what it means to have a presumption of notability. Just because someone wins office or announces their candidacy, there is no presumption of notability. But there is no presumption of non-notability, either. Look at the cites here. He's got attention around the country. He's been widely quoted. He's been an activist before he was a candidate. If he were, say, a local activist on environmental issues there wouldn't be nearly this scrutiny. But its applied to Kidd because of concerns that he might be notable only because he's a candidate - which is not the case. Bangabandhu (talk) 02:11, 13 February 2017 (UTC)
- Of all the sources in the article, just two are non-local to the district where he's running — one of the two is a Gothamist-network blog, which is a source that would be acceptable for some supplementary confirmation of facts after GNG has already been fully covered off but cannot be a bringer of GNG, and neither of them are about Kidd: they're both about Chaffetz, and just briefly namecheck Kidd as a provider of soundbite at the very end. A national officeholder's primary challenger would be routinely expected to occasionally get namechecked in coverage of the officeholder, so that is not substantive coverage of the type it would take to actually make him more notable than the norm, because he isn't the subject of that "national coverage". If you want to make a non-winning candidate notable enough for a Wikipedia article on the grounds that "media coverage exists", what you need to do is show that the volume of coverage is approaching Christine O'Donnell levels — this isn't just failing to be in the distant exurbs of enough, it's failing to be even in the same time zone as enough.

- Delete Fails WP:POLITICIAN and basic WP:GNG as subject has not received "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". Article's sources do not meet all 3 requirement. Current sources:
- 1, 2 and 8 - passing mention in article - not significant
- 3, 6 and 7 - primary source directly from Kidd - not independent
- 4 and 5 - announcement of possible candidacy- full of quotes from Kidd - more PR about candidacy - not independent.
- G searches and HighBeam provided nothing to help establish notability. CBS527Talk 03:51, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
- That's the most helpful, thoughful comment in this thread and ought to be a model for contributions to AFD discussion. You're right that sourcing could be stronger. One important consideration is that more coverage is coming daily and that if it's deleted all this work will need to be recreated. I initially thought this was a SNOW issue, but understanding now the scrutiny for these types of articles, I can see why it's a topic of debate. Here are a couple recently created sources. Yes, none is a full on profile of Kidd, but notability doesn't require a dedicated profile, does it? I think the totality of the articles about him and his candidacy - as well as the trajectory of the coverage - should give us reassurance. Here are some recent, additional searches - not sure if they turned up in Highbeam.
- Published yesterday about this role in DC and Utah politics
- More recent coverage
- Bangabandhu (talk) 14:00, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
- I'm sure you are right that he will be getting better coverage in the future though right now it's WP:TOOSOON. If this article is deleted, it can be accessed through WP:REFUND if some one is is interested in expanding the article. You are correct that the source don't need to be about him but it would need to have in depth coverage of him. The 2 articles cited above just have a passing mention of him as a candidate running against Chaffetz. These sources are independent and reliable and could be used to establish his position on this issue. Unfortunately, they do not provide the significant coverage needed to establish notability.

- Delete. A television journalist does not automatically get a Wikipedia article just because she has an "our staff" profile on the primary source website of the news organization she works for — she gets a Wikipedia article when she's the subject of coverage from news organizations other than the one she works for, but nothing like that has been shown here at all.

In January 2013 User:Gongshow proposed this for deletion with the rationale "Does not appear to meet WP:GNG or WP:MUSICBIO; no significant coverage found in reliable sources; no charts or other criteria met.". The WP:PROD notice was removed without comment by an IP, but the article remains almost unchanged, minimally referenced, mainly to radio show playlists, with the best being a now-archived page on a terapija.net e-zine. I have interwikied the Slovenian Wikipedia article (as Aleksander Cepuš): a CV page which lists prolific activity and links, but I am not seeing reliable 3rd party sources which demonstrate the subject as meeting the notability criteria. I am therefore bringing this for wider discussion around the 2013 Prod rationale, as to whether the WP:MUSICBIO or WP:GNG criteria are met. AllyD (talk) 17:42, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Was deprodded after the addition of several sources. However, all the sourcing revolves around his book about his mother's suicide. The book might be notable, but I don't think this person meets either WP:GNG or WP:AUTHOR. Onel5969 TT me 17:11, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Delete a non-notable writer.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:15, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Weak keep. The news coverage is partly about him and partly about the book so there is some interest in him as a person. He has also written other books although clearly there is just the one thing he is mainly notable for. I think he probably just about scrapes over the line for notability. The article could do with a little expansion but not too much. If this were to grow into a big article that would be undue. If the consensus is not to keep then maybe this could be renamed and redrafted as a stub about the book. --DanielRigal (talk) 18:52, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Was deprodded with the rationale: that prods were "not for "award-winning actresses who have starred on Broadway"". However, the article doesn't even state what "award" she has won. This is definitely borderline for me since she has had a significant role in a Broadway production, but WP:NACTOR states, "1.Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions". Other than that one role, she's had parts, none of which, from what I can tell, are significant. The role in Luke Cage definitely doesn't appear significant. And the role in The Americans is also a minor supporting role. Onel5969 TT me 17:09, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

- Keep: I'm finding quite a bit of coverage for her roles and it looks like one of the plays she's been in, King Liz, should be able to justify its own article - it just hasn't been written yet. She's also performed in multiple episodes of two major series, enough to where her character is mentioned in an overview/review for one of the episodes of The Americans and in this overall review of Luke Cage. She's not a hugely major player in the acting world, but I think that there's enough to justify her inclusion. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 19:29, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- I also found the award she won, the Theatre World Award. It looks like it's just big enough to give some notability, albeit not enough to keep on that basis alone. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 19:41, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Non-notable company.

- comment (leaning on keep) It is a mildly known landmark in Lisboa (I think I've never went there, even when I lived there, but it is a familiar name). It is not a "garden-variety supermarket" as the nominator says. It is a Market (place) from the 1930's (according to the one source in the article and the building look like being from that era) which was recuperated and re-purposed to be something in between a market and a mall, in 2013-11-26 (announcement at the city of Lisboa site). It is owned by the city, and run by a company (MCO - most likely short for the market's name) which is not clear from the source I read (market's page on the city of Lisboa's site) if it is private or public (likely private, but the source for that is my memory and my knowledge of the country, both not very reliable :-). The official page is under (re?)construction, who knows since when... Overall, the building alone for the architecture and history, plus the fact that there is something there at all (garden-variety or not) is probably notable.

Musician that fails WP:MUSICBIO. While some minor coverage is found on google searches there is no siginificant coverage.

<<<< Whoever wrote this is absolutely wrong. The Hot97 article, one of the most internationally recognized Hip Hop brands, specifically introduces Vinchi from Detroit and gives him support, then premiering his new video. This artist has specifically had his music and videos featured by multiple of the top Hip Hop brands on earth, which are publications that are in no way directly affiliated with the artist. These are platforms only Major Artists are featured on. The "references" given do entirely mention him, as they are references featuring HIS music and music video releases, or videos that he produced and supplied the music on. He has been featured by Hot97, The Detroit News, SoRaspy, has been featured in Spotify's top playlists, and has worked with Platinum Certified Producers. His video work and music has been featured on Transworld Snowboarding, Snowboarder Magazine, and more.

The IAA reference is from a company that is designed to promote their clients - does not sound independent, the snowboarding references are about Kyle Mack - they only refer to Vinchi as his name is in the credits of the video - the references are NOT about Vinchi, THe Hot97 article consists of three lines linking to a video - there is no commentary about him other than the announcement of the video, the Detroit news article does not mention his name. The thisis50 site is unclear about who actually posts the content - is it being added by "members" or editorial staff? The site is unclear. The So Raspy article is not significant coverage - it only really announces the release of a record and reads like a rehash of a press release. noq (talk) 11:35, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
Comment The blog entry from a New York radio station is a worldwide recognized brand which receives constant international attention. It is an honor in Hip Hop for Hot97 to share a rappers video, and in this case it was a brief description and the video included on the page since the entire point of an article is to share the actual music of an artist, especially one that a major platform is attempting to help break out. IAA is a company that is responsible for launching several of the largest Hip Hop artists in recent years, including PNB Rock and many others. The Detroit News article is covering a facility that Vinchi helped create, and the Detroit News interviews and joins him on a recording session in the article if you were to watch the video, that is a visual coverage article. SoRaspy is another worldwide Hip Hop brand, owned by Jadakiss and of course it isn't a lengthy description, as these Hip Hop sites are sharing a video with their viewers to support the audio and visual creation. This artist already has a Wiki-Box when "Jay Vinchi" is searched on Google, linking all of his major platforms including a Spotify channel with over half of a million streams. This artist has been featured in televised interviews with news stations, and has worked with Platinum Producers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.4.107.124 (talk) 19:23, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
- Comment The Hot97 3 line link to a video is not WP:significant coverage. It needs much more than that to establish notability. IAA might have been successful in promoting other artists it does mean that all their clients are automatically notable - that would be a nice marketing feature for them but it is not so. I don't see a video on the Detroit News article - which mentions many other names but not his which seems odd if he is so influential in it. The wiki box is not significant and may well disappear if the wikipedia article is removed. noq (talk) 11:47, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

Comment Not sure why you are being so clearly negative towards this page, I just watched the Detroit News video, in the article, and saw his interview and section of freestyling with the camera crew in the studio. It is on there, broad as day. How is a Hot97 feature of an artist not significant coverage, when it is a post specifically meant to share the video? So if an athlete had their new snowboarding or skateboaring edit featured on Transworld, or Sports Center, that wouldn't be significant coverage? Combine that with a So Raspy featured, both of which being major Hip Hop publications? The features, verified social media and Spotify, features on Spotify playlists, several hundreds of thousands of streams, news features, major Hip Hop publication features. There are Wikipedia pages up on this website for artists with no publications, no verification, and very few other references. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.4.107.124 (talk) 18:20, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

- Please read the links I have provided previously for what is regarded as WP:significant coverage. And as for your last comment, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS] applies. noq (talk) 17:06, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
Understandable, and yes from what is seen between the articles referenced, WP:significant coverage exists in various forms as by the definition supplied on that page. That sentence was not said in a WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS] manner, it was in the sense that we have had conversations regarding this page previously, and your approach is seemingly negative, and completely false. You literally falsely claimed that the Detroit News article didn't have a video, and didn't feature Vinchi when clearly, I watched the video on Detroit News and you can see his interview and freestyle in the studio. So as far as your professionalism or the fact you brought this page to a deletion claim, is logically off due to the fact you are speaking in the manner you are, and not checking your own statements. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:406:4D02:4453:F5A8:1C9A:EB84:C668 (talk) 20:43, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Please read what I actually wrote. You interpret what I say as negative, but you start you first response here by claiming I am wrong - I then responded to each of your points - I still do not see a video link on the detroit news page but it is possible that that only appears if you allow the website to track you which I do not. The article itself does not mention him at all which seems odd if he such a significant part of what is being covered as it mentions many other people. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is relevant to your bringing up unnamed "There are Wikipedia pages up on this website for artists with no publications, no verification, and very few other references". As previously requested, please tell me what references "addresses the topic directly and in detail" as significant coverage is defined. Just repeating previous statements that I have already responded to do not count - either show why my interpretation is wrong and back it up rather than just calling my negative. As you do not seem to have contributed to Wikipedia on any other article, I have to ask if you have a WP:Conflict of interest here? noq (talk) 18:33, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
I do not have a WP:Conflict of interest I am a Metro Detroit resident who created this page when I saw Jay Vinchi on television with professional snowboarder Kyle Mack and noticed he had many articles with no central hub of information. As for a display of your interpretation in a logical manner here you are: you reference WP:significant coverage and, as defined in that topic, "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article", and as for actual coverage "The criteria applied to article creation/retention are not the same as those applied to article content. The notability guidelines do not apply to article or list content (with the exception that some lists restrict inclusion to notable items or people)." As for my reasoning of saying you're being negative to this article in specific, as defined by the terms written in said WP articles defining notability, the significance of the artist was already defined prior to this deletion notice. The sources properly fit into Wikipedia:Verifiability so I believed you already knew the definition to all and how they applied to this artist. Basically, this artist has been featured in and has had his music featured in verifiabile, reliable sources as defined by Wikipedia. Also, I believe you should read this section as well: "If it is likely that significant coverage in independent sources can be found for a topic, deletion due to lack of notability is inappropriate. However, once an article's notability has been challenged, merely asserting that unspecified sources exist is seldom persuasive, especially if time passes and actual proof does not surface." << That is not what I have done, but you have treated it as if that is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1007:B120:42C1:45B4:BA20:C486:766B (talk) 20:06, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. I looked at all nine citations. Half of them don't mention Jay Vinchi at all, and IMO none of them is WP:RS. The only citation which contains any detail at all about JV is the one by Industry All Access, which describes itself on its homepage as "a full service entertainment consulting firm. We provide exceptional problem-solving techniques paired with industry knowledge and clear-cut execution to help our clients achieve their objectives. We are dedicated to creating the foundation that will turn our clients [sic] visions into realities." No independent coverage, fails WP:BIO. And no, he can't inherit notability from Kyle Mack.

There is proof of notability, regarding the historical significance of the book, as it molded the contemporary Filipino name, by introducing surnames to many Filipinos, which in the pre-Spanish era, had varying naming practices for persons, usually names with no surname, multiple names with no surname, or names plus the surname (the clan name).

Not a capital and few results came up. MTroll (talk) 02:11, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- The town name itself is "Kudus", if you search for it I think you will get a lot of results. I titled the article "Kudus, Kudus", to disambiguate it from the regency it's in, which is also called Kudus. My understanding from WP:ID-NAME is that "Kudus, Kudus" is the appropriate way to title the town. Similar to Demak, Demak and others. Example external pages discussing Kudus: [20] (you can get the idea of the article using Google Translate). HaEr48 (talk) 03:21, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. Most cities of over 90,000+ people (and many much smaller) have articles. Passes WP:GEOLAND as it is a census district: "populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable." It seems to have some interesting features, looking on Google maps street view. Is Menara Kudus Mosque in the city of Kudus? Also interesting is that Google translator translates this locality as "Holy City" and the regency of Kudus as "Holy District." I get the impression that much more can be said. Jack N. Stock (talk) 03:56, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- The "Holy City" thing is probably a mistranslation. "Kudus" can also mean "holy" in Indonesian, although that meaning is slightly archaic (the more commonly used word is "wikt:suci"). It is named that way because it used to be a centre of Islamic scholarship in the 16th-17th century (which also explains the famous mosque you mentioned), and is still famed today for that aspect of its history. HaEr48 (talk) 04:08, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- And this is the article in the Indonesian language Wikipedia: https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kota,_Kudus? Jack N. Stock (talk) 04:14, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Yes, although I'm surprised that it called "Kota, Kudus" rather than "Kudus, Kudus" ("kota" means "city"). Looks like to distinguish from the regency, the town itself can also be called "Kota" or "Kota Kudus". Probably similar to how people use "the City" or "New York City" to distinguish the city from the state? HaEr48 (talk) 04:25, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- ID-wiki speaks of a specific kecamatan/subdistrict (named Kota) within the kabupaten/regency of Kudus. See for example this map. --HyperGaruda (talk) 16:31, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
- Keep - not because I agree with the creator or the implication that encyclopediac 'inventions' suit the encyclopedia compared to what is found on the ground, when I travelled through Kudus during the new order era I never ever 'heard' or 'saw' anything that identified Kudus being 'Kudus Kudus' - Kota, yes.
- Note -the Keep is conditional on adequate redirect to and from the main 'Kota, Kudus' traditional name, and expansion - the wikiproject indonesia has a very large amount of one source one line stubs (too many) - I do think the standard needs to be raised for surviving stubs should have more than one ref, and more than one line of text - if it was not created by a very good and dedicated editor I would say delete without hesitation due the close to meaningless one line one ref (or less) stubs on the project (modified) JarrahTree 01:15, 15 February 2017 (UTC)

- Just did a Google search for <"Malakia" -wikipedia> and found out (on the very first page) that the Urban Dictionary defines it as "masturbation...slang word for semen...nonsense...an item considered worthless... a mistake, or (ironically and degradingly) a time-consuming non-productive action..."; this would seem to back this definition up; Strong's Concordance (of the Bible) defines it as "a disease or condition that weakens ("softens") the victim... an ailment that disables – 'a debilitating infirmity' causing the body to lose muscle" and another Bible site has a similar definition, and both of these appear to contradict the thesis at Malakia#Bible translations; it also happens to be a settlement on the island of Irakleio and a football team, Malakia FC. This and this do talk about effeminacy (which the "article" appears mostly to be about) but there seem to be a lot of possibilities out there... And still the "article" is entirely based on primary sources and possible synthesis of them at that. And actually the word as meaning effeminacy appears to be more closely related to Latin: here.
- Either the article should be rewritten from secondary sources that actually say what the authors of this piece say—or that indeed say something else—or simply deleted. See also the ton of discussion about it on the talk page—and all the editors (except the dreaded "IP from St Petersburg", it would seem) appear to ignore the basic problem of a lack of third party sources. I write all this just in case anyone actually comes here from the article to have their say... to me it seems that someone has fixated on the "effeminacy/homosexuality" meaning and deliberately avoided discussing the other meanings and applications, except very briefly. Why? POV and OR and lack of V all at the same time! — Iadmc♫talk 21:17, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
- I started this page as "Effeminancy"! The point of the article is about Effeminancy as a VICE. The other page on Wikipedia was about "being effeminate as a homosexual characteristic and is a good idea". That is not the original meaning of the term. There is NO secondary literature out there on this. I started this page for Classical/Biblical scholars to understand the meaning and use of the term in Classical antiquity---everybody else has it as a homosexual/sexual thing. The term "malakos" in the Greek just means soft and in classical meaning it had NO sexual connotations. It is in Aristotle's Virtues and Vices--"malakos" is a soft, weak, man. This is about understanding this term as it is used in the Bible to describe a particular vice in men. WHEELER (talk) 16:27, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
- @WHEELER:Effeminacy is diabolically OR... I notice you removed the references to "malakos" from that article. Why? Perhaps you should have edited it to make the lack of sexual meaning clearer? Including modern commentaries, of course, which is precisely what I meant about your article (under discussion) not containing any WP:SECONDARY. That said, the ancients are secondary, I guess; we just need modern commentary as well to back up the claims and observations in the piece. Perhaps we should merge these two articles together again and go from there? — Iadmc♫talk 09:02, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
- Add: I notice the vast majority of the edits after yours are either by IPs or now-blocked editors... It was moved way back when to "Malakia (effeminacy)" then to simply "Malakia". No one else that I can see in the history would be much interested in discussing the fate of this article as far as I can tell. OTOH, those editing Effeminacy might be interested, especially if we do consider merging. Therefore, pinging the most apparently relevant editors there, if they are interested: @Florian Blaschke:, @Flyer22 Reborn:, @Peripitus:, @Hyacinth:. (BTW, I do not mean this as canvassing, rather as trying to get interested parties involved to achieve a broader consensus. I have no idea what these other editors' opinions might be.) — Iadmc♫talk 09:53, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

Comment: I'm responding to the ping by Iadmc. Hmm, looking at this article, I'm not sure what to think, but, per WP:Primary sources, which is a policy (not simply a guideline), our articles should mainly be supported by secondary sources and, to a lesser extent, tertiary sources. Having an article based solely or primarily on primary sources can call into question the WP:Notability of the topic and can make it easy for WP:Original research to dominate the article.

- I wish Iadmic leave things alone. Do NOT merge the two articles together. This is not "original research" meaning that making new conclusions not accepted/ordained by modern academia. What is in this article is about the continuity with Classical thought and Catholic morality. The First article does not address that. This article is purely a research aid. Leave it alone. I worked hard at this. This is why I hate wikipedia. People who have nothing else on their time and hands and go around and cause controversy. I actually did research, complete and whole to cover a topic important for Catholic ethics courses and biblical research. St. Thomas Aquinas's quote in this is perfect Secondary to back up what is meant in the classical quotes. Please leave this alone. This is why I no longer edit at Wikipedia. Endless arguments over nothing.WHEELER (talk) 21:01, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- @WHEELER: I'm sorry but you misunderstand my use of the term "original research": you are using it in its modern academia meaning, I am using it in its Wikipedia meaning. Please see Wikipedia:No original research which works alongside Wikipedia:Neutral point of view and Wikipedia:Verifiability. These are the three Core content policies upon which Wikipedia is based. Your work is indeed excellent and well-researched but belongs on another website altogether since it is your original research. The main points (sourced from WP:RSs) can be written into Effeminacy to give it a more balanced approach to the subject. As the situation stands we also have a content fork. Please read the policies and the guideline I have linked to the better understand my meaning. Thank you — Iadmc♫talk 22:04, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Delete. This is a long-defunct tourist information radio station, which is a class of radio station that WP:NMEDIA deprecates as not getting an automatic presumption of notability just because it exists — but the station is the subject of no coverage about it in media to get it over WP:GNG. The only "sources" here are CRTC decisions for the initial license approval, and the general exemption order (not specifically mentioning this station) that released this class of stations from actually having to have licenses at all anymore — but the problem is that while this station is defunct, we can't source when or why it went defunct in the absence of reliable source coverage about it. CRTC documents are helpful sources to start an article with — they get you things like ERP, HAAT, regulatory violations, etc. — but they can't be an article's only possible sources if the station otherwise fails GNG.

- Delete; there's no presumption of notability for tourist information stations, licensed or not, and it seems unlikely that CKTT-FM will ever attain the coverage in reliable sources to meet the general notability guideline, much less to verify whether it is still operating. (Incidentally, there was a numbered company that tried to buy the station to essentially replace a tourist information station with a religious station, but their plans were rejected by the CRTC in 2006. Had CKTT-FM been allowed to make this format change, it may well have eventually attained notability, but since it never happened I don't think it's enough to get CKTT over the notability hump.) --WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 01:39, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Contested PROD. No real claim to notability per WP:CREATIVE ; there is no significant coverage of the person and almost all sources are primary.

What's listed as a career is a mere 1 film apparently and all the sources here are clear announcements, mentions, profiles and all similar, WP:BASIC and WP:GNG are not policy and have never single-handedly controlled our articles, WP:NOT would apply in this case because we're not IMDb and there's enough suggesting a misuse of an IMDb-esque page. In fact, WP:GNG itself says we need significant major independent news that is independent of the subject, the sources are clear interviews, republished words, etc. Longtime existing article with still nothing in independent notability and substance, there's no automatic inherited notability from anything or anyone; nothing to suggest her career is in fact significant; searches simply found mere announcements and mentions, including entertainment listings.

- Delete The subject of this article simply hasn't been discussed in significant detail. Moreover, she fails WP:NACTOR. She has only starred in a few films, most of which are not notable. The notability of the Omo Elemosho film she starred in can be brought into question, since the film fails 4 of the 5 criterion of WP:NFO. Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 01:14, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- Keep I'm very confused by this AfD because Bimbo Oshin has been one of the top Yoruba actresses for more than 20 years now. She has acted and had lead roles in dozens of movies. Of course a web search returns thousands of results, but just to focus on interviews published by mainstream Nigerian newspapers: [21], [22]. If I'm missing something, tell me. Thanks and regards, Biwom (talk) 04:11, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- "has acted and had lead roles in dozens of movies" yet the article lists she's only had 1 work, which instantly unconvinces WP:ENTERTAINER, our applicable standards for actors. Also, to examine your sources, the first one is a clearly labeled interview and her own published words consisting the article itself, the second is simply an entertainment column, not substance. SwisterTwister talk 04:34, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- Keep: Obviously passes WP:GNG. The article is referenced with notable News Outlets, which are reliable sources, discussing her in significant details. Also a quick search (web, News) shows a gazillion sources discussing her all over. This AFD is pretty much pointless to me.--Jamie Tubers (talk) 13:03, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- What I found in those links were simply entertainment blogs such as "7 Things You Should Know About Her", "Meet Bimbo and her husband", "Interview with Bimbo", "Bimbo celebrating her daughter's birthday", "An interview with Bimbo", etc. None of that satisfies our standards as it's simply trivial entertainment columns, not substance; including columns anything can author and even by her own request. SwisterTwister talk 04:34, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

- Keep: I initially didn't want to vote in this AFD, and consequently deleted my earlier comments, mainly because I misjudged the identity of the nominator but I couldn't just hold back not commenting on the delete votes. Firstly, she has not acted in few films, she has acted in a lot of Yoruba films. I remember seeing some of her movies while growing up, immediately I saw her face after Googling her, with the name also ringing a bell, I knew she would definitely be clearly notable because she was a big deal then, so I can understand why anyone familiar with Yoruba culture will be displeased with this AFD. Yoruba films are one of the most undocumented, especially before 2000s, but am glad all that is changing now. Internet penetration is on the increase in all aspect of Nigerian culture. Even at that, there is still sufficient information on the internet that gives a clear claim for notability. If you think Omo Elemosho isn't notable for WP, then you should go nominate it, this AFD isn't really about Omo Elemosho, even if she didn't act in the film, she will still be very notable, the film isn't her claim to notability. Leaving aside GNG, and approaching other criteria in GNGACTOR, she was nominated for Yoruba Movie Awards, the main reason why someone as notable as she is doesn't have a train of awards is that the award culture is a new thing in Nigerian film industry, infact the oldest existing notable awarding body started in 2005, and there is no category for Nigerian language based films alone, so indigenous films have to compete with English films for nomination.

- Keep per review of existing sources, she passes GNG. — Sam Sailor 22:47, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- @Darreg: You claim she has acted in "a lot of Yoruba films", yet the article only list one. Why don't you expand the filmography section to support your statement? You can't make a statement and not validate it. I don't know what sources you're looking at online, but my google search of her only brought up newspaper interviews, which do not establish notability per WP:GNG. This, this, and this are interview sources which are primary sources, not secondary. Sources that are not independent of the subject are considered primary sources, not secondary sources. The Global News source looks reliable, but the article is about her eviction from Dolphin Estate. GNG states that sources do not have to be available online or written in English. If there are reliable independent Yoruba articles discussing her in detail, they will need to be included in the article. Reliable sources in print media will also need to be included in the article. The subject may be notable, but the current sources online doesn't show that. For everyone saying keep, please cite the sources you believe are notable. You can either list them here or cite them in the article. Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 23:16, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
- I think wikipedia is very clear about establishing notability. The criteria is Independent reliable sources. Be aware that per WP:INDEPENDENT, "Secondary does not mean independent, and primary does not mean non-independent or affiliated with the subject". A non-independent source are things like press releases, subject's blog posts, personal websites etc. An interview conducted by a reliable media house is definitely an independent source. Most of the information in biography sources are based on what the subjects disclose anyway, so? Also note that there're lots of other coverages outside interviews, there are lots of sources (can be found in the link i gave earlier) talking about her birthdays, anniversaries, her family etc. Clearly demonstrates notability.--Jamie Tubers (talk) 00:05, 11 February 2017 (UTC)

- @Versace Going by your logic, because only 2% of Nollywood films are on Wikipedia, that automatically implies that only 2% of Nollywood films are notable for Wikipedia. I'm pretty sure less than 1% of strictly Yoruba language films are on Wiki but does that really mean that only less than 1% of Yoruba films are notable? I disagree! Darreg (talk) 07:43, 11 :::February 2017 (UTC)
- @Darreg: I don't understand how you derived your statement. Where in my reply did I say that if "only 2% of Nollywood films are on Wikipedia, that automatically implies that only 2% of Nollywood films are notable for Wikipedia"? Please explain to me where you're getting these figures from. Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 16:10, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- I'm sorry for misinterpretation of your words. But concerning my figures, I will explain how I arrived at them. It is documented in the Cinema of Nigeria article that as at 2010, there have been a total of 400,000 Nollywood films. Note that I said 2010 and the number is likely to be close to a million 7 years later. I tried to get a more recent total was wasn't successful. Today, the number of Nigerian films on WP is about 200, I got this number from the parent Category:Nigeria films. Do the maths, 200 is less than 2% of 400k, it's actually 0.05%. Secondly, today, there are only 23 film articles that Yoruba was spoken in on Wikipedia. Note that some of these 23 film articles have English as a first language. The only way my second statistic (1%) is going to be wrong is if you will tell me that the total number of Yoruba films ever produced since the beginning of time is less than 2300, this figure is highly unlikely for anyone familiar with the industry. I don't want to derail this AFD, so let's just end the discussion here or continue on my talkpage. Once again, I apologize for fixing words into my understanding of your thoughts and labeling it as yours. Darreg (talk) 22:12, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- Actually, "interview conducted by a reliable media house" is not independent because WP:GNG itself says the contents must be independent of the subject and an interview is not, especially not when it largely takes the entire article only. SwisterTwister talk 04:34, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
- I disagree with you. while there's no consensus on interviews yet, a media interview generally passes WP:Independent to me. If a reliable media house finds a subject important enough to post an interview, without her being affiliated to the media house, the subject definitely demonstrates notability. It is quite different from the subject writing about herself in the press or blog - that definitely is not Independent. However, when a reliable source writes based on information provided by her on her personal websites, it is still a primary source, but it is now very much independent of the subject. But it's really pointless debating this anyway. The result of the AFD is pretty much decided already.--Jamie Tubers (talk) 16:44, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
- Actually, WP:RS is the one applying here; as for the AfD, see the page you suggest above, "without undue attention to the subject's own views....protect the project from people using Wikipedia for self-promotion, personal financial benefit -- Is this source independent or third-party, or is it closely affiliated with the subject?" and our policies have never stated "If a newspaper interviewed her, she must be significant for an article here" because our policies are never controlled by such interest-based matters. The Keep votes still haven't suggested how we keep this in policy-based since WP:BaSIC and WP:GNG have never been made to Policy. SwisterTwister talk 01:03, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
