Utter bunk; probably a hoax. The "sorting algorithm" presented here is just an obfuscated way of doing

for i from 0 to n:
 a[i] = i

No indication of notability, no significant coverage in reliable sources. Of all the sources in the article, the interview is the only one that writes so much as a single sentence about Sturgis. The article was prodded for these reasons, the prod was removed by User:Joeyismusic without improvement. Huon (talk) 22:51, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete A single interview does not establish notability, and is a primary source. I see no fully independent coverage in reliable sources. Producing recordings by notable performers does not, in itself, confer notability. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 00:16, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Joey is a worldwide known producer and this page is incredibly educational to many, it's a great source for people wanting to find previous work of Joeys, it is also a 100% accurate source which is great for students of music wishing to do assignments/reports on him, if you do not believe he is notable then maybe you should check this http://www.allmusic.com/artist/joey-sturgis-mn0000938432/credits — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.160.193.149 (talk) 02:09, 24 September 2014 (UTC) Notability is doing something significant and therefore affects other people. He has worked with people to help there music which in turn is listened to by thousands of people. The simple factor of googling a name and having actual photos and information confirms popularity or knowledge about that one person or thing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.10.231.8 (talk) 02:47, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Joey is the reason countless bands have been successful. You have to be just picking on him because you got butthurt if you think he isn't notable. He's the biggest name producer in the modern metal scene.

Joey Sturgis is arguably one of the most successful, prolific and influential producers in metal music. By definition, notability is "A person of distinction or great reputation" as stated here: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/notable By that logic, someone who has had a visible and prominent influence in the creation, development and evolution of one hugely popular genre of music in the last five years is inarguably notable. His credentials include Asking Alexandria, Attack Attack, The Devil Wears Prada, Emmure and We Came As Romans among others; all of which are established and hugely popular acts. For clarification of this statement, please refer to each band's respective Wiki pages, Facebook pages or simply Google them. Without him, these bands would arguably have had a largely different sound (due to his involvement in the writing, producing, recording and mixing of their albums) and as such, we can conclude that metal music would have an indescribably different landscape. Joey's work is integral to the success of these artists and the defining of an entire niche of modern music, and to argue that this does not quantify notability seems biased.

Joey will be appearing on Creative Live as seen here: https://www.creativelive.com/conferences/mastering-metal-mixing — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.194.5.173 (talk) 11:51, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Highest Quality" sources are always going to be debateable unless Wiki puts out a list of publications it considers to be highest quality. You must admit that it is really annoying to attack a page for not having enough sources, and then when more sources are provided in its defense you are requesting "only the highest quality" sources. What happens when the highest quality sources are given, will you have some other complaint about how there are too many or the highest quality sources aren't valid or they are out of date or they're not in the right format? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.194.5.173 (talk) 01:33, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Once notable, always notable. Clearly, those in 1876 believed this horrific event to be notable, for there to be so much coverage of it (8 references listed, so far, including Indiana, Ohio, and Virginia newspapers, which qualifies as national coverage). While lynchings were widespread, they were far from normal, since their crimes shocks the conscience, just as ISIS did with their beheadings. Lynchings are a stain on the moral superiority of the KKK, and other racist groups in America. By slaying extrajudicially, with mob justice, the Klan turned what could have been tried in a court of law, into another crime of passionate racial hatred. Since lynchings are a special way for racist whites to murder, and with the many other sources separate from the subject material, "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", this makes this article suitable for a stand-alone article, and therefore, should be kept.WG:GNG Sarahrosemc (talk) 13:01, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Mentioned in the 1990 book Racial Violence in Kentucky, 1865-1940: Lynchings, Mob Rule, and "Legal Lynchings" (ISBN 9780807115367, published by LSU Press). But it is just barely that, a mention. These were horrible crimes, but I simply don't see any evidence that individual lynchings meet notability standards absent wider attention or legal, social, or historical impacts. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 22:01, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Horrible as this sounds, lynchings were very common in that commonwealth back in the late 1800s. I don't see how this one was notable, except that a husband and wife were victims. Weak delete. Bearian (talk) 20:45, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
George Wright (in the book I mentioned above) found this worth mentioning only because it was a lynching of blacks in retribution for the murder of another black (where the majority of lynchings were ostensibly predicated by crimes against whites). But even then, he didn't consider this a unique situation, and gave it merely a passing mention. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 20:54, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - WP:NTEMP, people: once notable, forever notable. This was discussed in sources in the 1800s, and as such it meets WP:GNG. The event has been discussed by XX century sources, which shows WP:PERSISTENCE. That there were other similar events is irrelevant for notability. Notable does not mean unique.--cyclopiaspeak! 16:36, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Right. So often now I see this reasoning that "notable" equals "uncommon" or "exceptional". But perfectly ordinary things can be quite notable, if people have considered them important—worthy of note, notable. And very unusual things can be non-notable, if no one cares about them. Everyking (talk) 02:59, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per reasoning of Cyclopia. And actually lynching were not that normal, at least according to one history I read some years ago. One major object of an encyclopedia is to be able to look something up when one finds a bare mention of it is a book or other document. Using Squeamish Ossifrage's theory we would have very few modern music articles. --Bejnar (talk) 22:37, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That is not, however, the standard by which we judge notability and inclusion. Bare mentions are not "significant coverage" in the sense of WP:N. The 1876 coverage is problematic as concerns WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NEVENTS. It is absolutely true, as cyclopia observed, that notability does not expire; in Wikipedia's sense of the term, this event, while tragic, was never notable. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 22:42, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Folllowing material copied from a very confusing AFD started on a cut and paste copy of this article at Lynchings of Benjamin and Mollie French. Dennis started the new AFD and I have added the "Delete" to the start of his nomination comment. Meters (talk) 05:54, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete nkyviews.com makes up the bulk of the sources, which is a self-published website owned and maintained by one person. The other cite, a book, is searchable on Google, and when I searched for the "fact" in the lead "best nigger in the country", I got nothing. The sourcing is so radically subpar, I can't see how we can publish this. I would also note that lynchings were (unfortunately) common and this hasn't differentiated itself as particularly unique, enough so to pass WP:CRIME. Dennis 19:15, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Within minutes Dennis suggested deleting two of my articles, which I worked for hours on. Hey Dennis, did you even read this article, before suggesting to delete it? Sarahrosemc (talk) 19:45, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Mainly, I read the source material, which is problematic. Using self-published websites to prove the lynching of someone is very, very problematic.

  • Keep. Although the sources link to the self-published website, that site purports to accurately reproduce contemporary reports from secondary sources (newspapers). While I would prefer to see scans (rather than transcriptions) of the papers, I note that the author could have easily cited these sources without linking to the transcriptions on nkyviews.com, as Wikipedia does not require that sources be on-line. I feel that the sourcing is adequate. Pburka (talk) 21:58, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"He was, in the estimation of Warsaw whites, "the best nigger in the country." Page 98-99. George Wright's Racial Violence in Kentucky, 1865-1940. The sentence begins on the bottom right of page 98, and ends on the top left of page 99. It's there. That's one accusation down.

It's also notable because lynching is a very specific weapon used by racist whites against blacks. While there were bunches, it also wasn't as "common" as the above comments make you'd believe. Also, since it was happening in the Northern part of Kentucky, that suggests that racist vigilante justice was practiced all throughout the state. Being close to the Mason-Dixon line didn't wane the support of racial hatred, and may have in fact, intensified it. Sarahrosemc (talk) 22:22, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
All I can tell you is that I looked at the book, and it wasn't there. Perhaps it is a different ISSN than what you listed, you didn't give the ISSN, but once it fails verification, the onus is on you to provide more information in the citation to it CAN be verified. It isn't enough to claim a cite, it has to be verifiable, via WP:V. Dennis 22:48, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
See http://books.google.com/books?id=QAL5c1vECVkC&pg=PA99#v=onepage&q&f=false. It's exactly where Sarahrosemc indicated. Pburka (talk) 23:33, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. So... make a Lynchings of Benjamin and Mollie French, and have them link to both? I'll read on this, and compile them somehow. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarahrosemc (talkcontribs) 00:05, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

So I made the Lynchings of Benjamin and Mollie French page, and had the others redirect to there. I kept the articles of deletion part at the top, and it directs to here. The article was poorly titled. Grammatically didn't seem right. It's better now. Sarahrosemc (talk) 00:17, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I take offense that just because I wanted a better titled article, that I'm accused of some type of fraud... That's your mindset; not mine. Folks can vote against others for the most arbitrary of reasons, and I didn't want my article to be flunked out of existence just because of the title. I still believe Lynchings of Benjamin and Mollie French is a better title, and hope that we can change it, after this page passes, which I'm not sure if that can be done. I have a right to blank out my own page, and it wasn't to avoid this discussion, because I would welcome this discussion on the Lynchings of Benjamin and Mollie French page as well.

Also, this article passes WP:NOTTEMPORARY WP:CRIME WP:INDEPTH WP:LASTING. While not an infinite supply of sources, compared to today's events, for an 1800s event, there's many different newspapers that printed about this incident. The lasting effects of a lynching is clearly one that racist whites used to intimidate all Black folks, not just the ones being lynched. Lynchings are significant because, first of all it's a murder, and second, it's a murder weapon used by sick oppressors, to not only punish those who are killed, but to scare the entire Black population into submission, so they wouldn't look up into white people's eyes, whenever they walked down the street. Reconstruction would fail in 1875 with the compromise between the Tilden v. Hayes election. So Benjamin and Mollie French were murdered 4 years after the Freedman's Bureau was disbanded, and only 1 year after the Federal Troops stopped occupying the South. Once Reconstruction failed, America would continue in the Nadir Era of Race Relations up until the 1950s. Sarahrosemc (talk) 06:10, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

hatting the procedural close for the other AfD, a bit out of context here
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
  • Procedural close  Had the nomination been provided the time, more than 36 minutes, to have the research that would have prepared the community for a deletion discussion, it would reflect the edit comment in the first and only edit made before nomination, "changed title from Lynchings to Lynching", and rather than WP:BITE the new editor, would have provided to the new editor the technique for moving an article from one title to another.  Since this article is already at AfD with the older "Lynchings" title, a 2nd AfD is confounding.  Unscintillating (talk) 01:34, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per, of all things, WP:NOTNEWS (which is a way of articulating the persistence-of-coverage part of WP:EVENT). These sources are mostly from a couple of days after it happened; it gets a brief mention in the Wright source as an example of a broader principle.

  • Keep. While he doesn't pass WP:NCOLLATH, precedent is well-established that a college football player may have a stand-alone article if coverage passes WP:GNG. Frey was the starting quarterback at Ohio State from 1988 to 1990 and was the subject of widespread coverage in the mainstream media, more than sufficient to pass GNG. Examples include: this from Northwest Columbus News, this from ESPN.com. He also passes WP:NGRIDIRON as he played professional football in the original Arena Football League for the 1993 Cleveland Thunderbolts team. Cbl62 (talk) 00:18, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - This is an easy keep !vote per the general notability guidelines of WP:GNG (see Cbl62's comments above for a small sample of the coverage of the subject's college career). To anyone familiar with American college football, this result was entirely predictable, even without doing any AfD-related homework. The subject was the three-year starting quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes football team of Ohio State University, which has been a perennial top-10 program for the last 70 years. Starting quarterbacks in high-profile programs like Ohio State's get a lot of ink even if they suck, and this guy was a pretty damn fine college QB. Next.

I'm not impressed. They're not new sources or significant. I can't access the first source given, the second is a promotional release from EFC Africa in 2012 saying that ratings had doubled since 2011 (and this source was given in the previous discussion), the third is a one line mention in an article about cashing in on MMA in Canada where EFC is clearly described as minor "nth-tier fighting cards from promotions including Battlefield Fight League and Extreme Fighting Championship Africa", while the fourth is a 2011 article about a fighter who fights (or fought) for the EFC and the promotion gets a passing mention. None of these is post the last AfD and the most recent is the 2013 business article describing the EFC as n-th tier. It hardly makes a strong case for notability.

  • No Delete: Prakash Singh Badal is Chief Minister of Punjab (not some tea maker in streets). Vikram Singh, who has thrown shoe on him on an event due to unemployment prevailing in Punjab is critical issue. Moreover, many charges were thrown on him which are wrongly charged by Punjab Police which lead to intervention of Human Rights. It is similar to Jarnail Singh (politician), Muntadhar al-Zaidi. But, if wiki have policy of only creating articles for Shoe throwers on American Politicians then you may proceed with deletion (i don't know this rule). The person who is saying above that this is BOO, then could you please provide stats of country where shoe throwing on politicians is very common and is part of culture and occur the second day? Moreover this incident, includes multiple events, shoe throwing, Aam Aadmi Party Involvement, Human Rights violation etc and even got support from Punjabis abroad. Rather then marking for deletion first it should be ask for expansion or merger?

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

Delete as an indiscriminate collection of information, and because the topic fails verification, and because the topic fails the general notability guideline for lack of citation to reliable sources about the topic. This article appears to be about a Maratha clan, I say appears because it lacks a lead section. It has been around for two years since 9 August 2012‎, so has had plenty of time for attention. The article currently has no citations concerning clan status. Sitush removed unreliable sources in 2012. See User talk:Starrahul#Maratha clans I was not able to find reliable sources to establish clan status. Even the not-reliable "crowd-sourced" surname page entitled Nalawade Genealogy, Nalawade Family History at Geni.com is empty. I found two Wikipedia articles that linked to this article, List of Maratha dynasties and states in which it is listed under "Rulers" for Pune, Satara and Sangli without citation, and List of Marathi films where it was a false drop for the actor Arun Nalawade, which false drop I have corrected. In Shrivastavya's 1952 book Are Rajput-Maratha Marriages Morganatic? the name "Nalavade" with the letter "v" is mentioned, but the sources and reliability are unclear. All of the existing citations are about individuals who happen to have "Nalawade", in some form, as a surname. Example: Mr. Dattatraya Shankar Nalawde Mayor of Bombay was born in village Vanake in Ratnagiri Dist. Anyone one of the three reason given above should be adequate for removal. I note that, among other warnings and bans, in October 2012 the article's author received a six-month topic ban on editing Maratha related articles, and did not return to editing after its expiration. --Bejnar (talk) 16:11, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete for lack of coverage. The game is claimed as an ancient game, one of the referenced sites indicates that a board was found in the XII Dynasty tomb of Reny-Seneb. But Llagostera, Esteban (2011). "El ocio en la antigüedad. Juegos del Mundo". Espacio Tiempo y Forma. Serie II, Historia Antigua (in Spanish). 1 (24): 305–329. makes it clear that the game found there bears no relation to "Pah tum", and that the archaeologists are completely ignorant of the rules of the Reny-Seneb game. This is confirmed in Chapter 2 of Tyldesley, Joyce A. (2007). Egyptian games and sports. Princes Risborough, UK: Shire. ISBN 978-0-7478-0661-5. where the Reny-Seneb game is referred to as "hounds and jackals". The claim of Mesopotamian and Assyrian Pah Tum boards could not be verified. It seems much more likely that the rules are of an entirely modern origin. --Bejnar (talk) 04:42, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Hoax. The ancient history has been trimmed from the article since its creation, but is particularly telling. Any board game from antiquity, especially one whose rules were known, especially one whose rules involve otherwise modern concepts like random space selection, would be a fruitful topic in scholarly analysis. But, predictably, Google Scholar is silent on the topic of "Pah Tum". Nor are there Google Books hits; even if this was a well-circulated game of more modern origin (with merely claimed ancient origins), it would appear in any of the litany of books about board games and abstract gaming, or in computer science game theory sources. But it is in none of those. Indeed, its only web presence appears to be a flurry of entries in open-submission board gaming sites (none of which constitute reliable sources), circa 2007–2008, and this 2008 entry at Wikipedia. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 15:13, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The original editor of Pah Tum, Aamma58, has contributed a vast array of essentially or completely unsourced articles on abstract board games. I am struggling to find reliable sources, even trivial ones, for nearly all of them. More eyes would be appreciated. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 15:21, 30 September 2014 (UTC) Dialing this back, somewhat. There are a TON of really poorly sourced articles here, in something of a walled garden, but at least enough of them seem to be verifiable that I don't think it's appropriate for me to pull the Official Wikipedia Fire Alarm.

  • Keep. There are eleven other Appalachian State University faculty with Wikipedia biographies. Mrs. Hodges's story is comparable to the others but different in its own way. There are some twelve links with her article to other articles. She was a college basketball player and senior golfer as well as educator and secretary to the parks commission in Boone, N.C. She set many golfing records in her category and played until she was ninety-three. Besides her obituaries, there are two newspaper articles independent of her as well as a statement about her career read on the floor of the U.S. House by Representative Virginia Foxx. She was also a descendant of a political family from Louisiana. Billy Hathorn (talk) 21:57, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Although she sounds like an interesting person to have known, I can see nothing here that would be considered notable outside of her community of friends and neighbors. She does not qualify for academic notability, nor for sports notability. The entire article was written by Billy Hathorn, who (understandably) is voting "keep" but who, IMO, does not understand the role of Wikipedia. Billy, this is well-researched and finely written, but WP is not the proper venue for your work. I do hope you find or create such a venue. Note that there is a new wiki service called "Local Wiki" where you can create a wiki for whatever locality or level of locality you would like - town, city, county... Your articles would be great in a resource like that. It is, however, new-ish so you'd be kind of pioneering (e.g. there isn't a huge community to answer questions, etc.). Best of luck.

That said, it may be worthwhile checking on the notability of those other pages too. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 13:39, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. CSD criteria have generally been narrowly construed. A family is not a real-world person nor an organization, so does not strictly qualify for A7. But the fact that this article makes no assertion of notability or importance whatsoever is still a valid reason for deletion. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 14:40, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, unless someone can come up with documentation. They could be the Lebanese Kennedys or Bushes, but I Googled "karim family" "youssef bey" and got no results. I'd definitely expect that if there were discussions of this family in English, there'd be pages online with that phrase and that person's name on them. There could be apt sources in Arabic, but I have no way to identify them and, unless someone supplies them, I'd rather not have this indiscriminate list of mostly red links with no introductory text explaining the significance of the family as a unit. —Largo Plazo (talk) 15:01, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per above comments. The family may well include notable individuals, but that does not in of itself make the family as a whole notable - something that needs to be demonstrated through third-party reliable sources. AndyTheGrump (talk) 15:35, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

the whole article is based on a single one day visit to Latvia by the Bangladeshi foreign minister. That has been the only minister visit between the 2 countries in 21 years of relations.

5 references referring to one day of relations. And 2 of them are primary sources. LibStar (talk) 22:57, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - none of the 'facts' or 'events' in the article add up to anything of the slightest notability. Bored mumbler in suit shakes hands with minor numpty from somewhere or other. Gee whiz. Small brief splash noticed in very small pond when someone puts on their sunglasses. Gosh. If we can't delete this under the GNG then it's an utterly useless criterion. Notable? No. Chiswick Chap (talk) 20:39, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep You gotta be kidding! In 2012, Bangladeshi foreign minister paid an official visit to Latvia, Bangladesh and Latvia have signed an MoU recently on agricultural sector, all these things show that the relationship has become significant and is growing at a good pace. The article also meets the general notability guidelines since there are several references from reliable sources with significant coverage. I can show you more [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17]. There are many information to add. Nomian (talk) 19:33, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
yep one single visit in one day by a foreign minister is the only visit in over 20 years of relations. LibStar (talk) 08:10, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It was a recent visit which indicates there are more to come. And most importantly the article meets general notability guidelines, so according to the policies it should be kept. Nomian (talk) 17:24, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"More to come" is WP:CRYSTAL. most of those additional sources are primary, they refer to a new ambassador who isn't even based in Latvia. Offering condolences about the ferry disaster is WP:ROUTINE coverage. LibStar (talk) 04:06, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • An article about the relations between countries that have officially recognized eachother, have made an official visit, and have signed a written agreement is more than just "news" and there is no good reason for deleting it. --Sammy1339 (talk) 14:06, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
all in just one day of 21 years of relations, just one official visit, it wasn't an agreement, it was a mere memorandum of understanding. LibStar (talk) 14:12, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • merge I agree that single meetings between country representatives, even if they result in some useful agreements, do not deserve their own article. The possible exception may be meetings that result in major treaties (cf Helsinki_Accords) but these are rarely single events. This information should be merged into the page on Bangladesh, preferably in the area "Foreign relations and military" which is heavy on military and rather light on foreign relations. In fact, those two topics could be split, and there would seem then to be room for a more in-depth discussion of foreign relations. LaMona (talk) 22:35, 30 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It is not only a single meeting, I have shown other sources. And the foreign relations section of country articles are only reserved for neighboring or rival countries and countries with strategic partnership or a strong alliance. Nomian (talk) 10:22, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep This is a rather borderline article.

Do not delete. I think Stone Buildings probably has a chapter in this. They were constructed in 1774 by Sir Robert Taylor. When one feeds that into GBooks one gets quite a few results quickly including things like this. Palladian design is highly regarded. Pitt the Younger had chambers there. Appears as a setting in a novel by Anthony Trollope. And so forth. I think Stone Buildings is notable and the merger, redirect and rewrite I proposed should go ahead.

An entry in Who's Who indicates notability.— Preceding unsigned comment added by MJT21 (talkcontribs) 6 September 2014

That note refers to Marquis Who's Who, an entirely different publication from Who's Who (UK) (and Who Was Who), which doesn't accept self-nominations. Qwfp (talk) 18:10, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
So do all 33,000 Britons listed listed in Who's Who (UK) have/need WP articles? I'm not arguing, just asking the question... Gaff ταλκ 23:55, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No. Clearly they don't all have WP articles at present, and I don't believe WP's coverage of UK people in any sense needs all of them to have WP articles. Nor do I believe having an entry in Who's Who should be sufficient to survive AfD. But I think it's an indicator of notability that can contribute, along with others. Qwfp (talk) 10:06, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree. We have always accepted, for example that an obit in the NYT is conclusive proof of notability. A & C Black's Who's Who belongs in the same category. It is very unlikely that the professional biographers of that publication would make a mistake about who is and isn't notable. James500 (talk) 07:18, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Field Of View Of The Anaesthetist Rickard W. Lloyd The British Medical Journal, Vol. 1, No. 2198 (Feb. 14, 1903), pp. 401-402

Slow Heart Rickard W. Lloyd The British Medical Journal, Vol. 1, No. 3357 (May 2, 1925), p. 860

Fatal Collapse After Extirpation Of Kidney Rickard W. Lloyd The British Medical Journal, Vol. 2, No. 2642 (Aug. 19, 1911), pp. 409-410

The obit should yield some good information, but I do not have access to JSTOR, so I put these out there and hope that someone with better access can get to it and add to the article. Other than that, I found nothing other than the metadata for his book, but I can't find a digital copy (hoping for a nice intro with bio information).

I believe Webix doesn't satisfy general notability guideline.

  • Coverage in multiple independent sources is required; the only substantial articles are two on InfoQ [32] [33], but both are written by the same person, thus not independent. It's also not clear whether InfoQ falls under WP:SPS, see [34]
  • Two cited sources [35] and [36] (now removed from article) I'd say are not substantial coverage. The 2nd is mostly a list of screenshots from the Webix website.

In addition, the article also has issues with tone and neutrality. -- intgr [talk] 17:50, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus (WP:NPASR). The source from The Daily Star is reliable, but it's debatable whether this is over the threshold of providing enough coverage to qualify as significant. I feel that this source falls short of providing significant coverage about the album. I'm unable to access the second source from ebanglamusic.org at this time. closing as no consensus due to 1) a lack of participation after two relistings and 2) a lack of discussion about the sources provided.

AfD was closed because in 2 weeks as no consensus it had attracted only one comment. Does not appear to meet WP:ORG or WP:GNG. It has been nominated for deletion twice before (speedy and prod) by two different editors, but considered not to meet that criteria/possibly be notable. It has been tagged for notability for over six years without resolution. It would be good if this time there were more responses or it is relisted enough times to get a response - as this has been tagged for notability for more than 6 years, it is time it was resolved.

I know this is part of a series, so the same may apply to all (future) years in this series, I have only looked at this one. I have now nominated all future years in the same vein:


There is no link between these works of fiction, the year 2034 is a random "near future" year which could have been 2035 or 2036 without any change to the works. The year 2034 is not a defining characteristic. "Works set in an alternate Earth where Hitler won WWII" would be a list of works with a clear, important (plot-defining) characteristic linking them. But being placed in the same future year? Or worse, looking at Works of fiction set in 2035, just having some plot element happening in that year? These are lists of basically unrelated trivia.

  • Delete - Also expand to whole series of these (from the makeshift navbox at top). We have categories "XXXX in fiction" that does this job just fine, as these lists are not providing any commentary about the year and just serve to list the works. --MASEM (t) 12:24, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete this entire article scheme: the future articles named here, and the rest as found at Works of fiction by year (and that parent article). This is a trivial intersection better handled by categories (if at all), and which presents a litany of problems with inclusion and maintenance. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 15:02, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep (or merge back into year articles). It's clearly inappropriate as categories, per WP:CATDEF. I believe the claim that works of fiction are inappropriate in year articles was a very weak consensus, and might be revisited. (I must admit the same applies to "Category:Establishments in yyyy"....) I'm not going to emphasize WP:RETAIN, as I consider that a weak argument, but it is an argument. The decision of whether a work of fiction should be included needs more specific guidelines, but so do the criteria for factual events which appear in year articles. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 15:42, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Um, RETAIN is about keeping one variation of English (e.g. Australian English or British English) in an article. I don't see the relevance here. And whether the cats should exist or not is a separate discussion, keeping the lists or deleting should not be dependent on the existence or fate of the cats. Fram (talk) 18:37, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

        • But the info that X or Y is set in 2034 (or whatever year) is not lost, it is mentioned in the article about X or about Y.

Fram (talk) 19:15, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to the articles on their respective years. That is, have a 2028 in fiction section in the article 2028 and merge Works of fiction set in 2028 into [[2028]. Khemehekis (talk) 05:36, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Users can merge into years if they feel like it, but I don't consider it important. As the nominator has fairly pointed out, almost all future settings are vague and hypothetical, unlike historical settings. Theoretically, I'd consider keeping near-future categories in order to allow for works that posit specific counterfactuals (eg. "Three years into Mitt Romney's first term...") but it might be too hard to enforce and regardless, doesn't seem to be the case for any of the works currently on the lists for the next few years. –Roscelese (talkcontribs) 20:21, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. A bit too indiscriminate. Although somewhat better than "fictional works that feature a protagonist named Joe", these works are still very loosely connected to each other through what is not a defining feature of the work itself. An encyclopedic article could be written about near future settings, and I'm slightly surprised that we don't have one. Notable examples could be listed and discussed there.

A minor altercation happened, just like on nearly every day in this period. No reliable independent source has given this skirmish significant attention (there are eyewitness accounts in published diaries, but these aren't independent of course), the name "Cattle Herd Skirmish" is a Wikipedia-only invention for a cattle raid that hasn't received a name in any source I could find.

The book "Battles and Skirmishes of the Great Sioux War, 1876-1877: The Military View",[43] 258 pages from the Univeristy of Oklahoma Press about the battles and skirmishes of this war, does not mention this skirmish, which seems rather definite proof that this is not a notable skirmish and more an attempt at writing history and conducting WP:OR than actually summarizing the existing secondary sources, which Wikipedia should do.

  • Delete. Minor event with no legitimate historical significance. I'd safely consider Jerome Green's book (the one cited by Fram) definitive in the absence of strong evidence to the contrary; he's a significant expert in this period. And he doesn't mention it. The name given by this article is original research as well, a wholly novel coinage. Mostly, this just serves as a coatrack to elevate the importance of John Wright. I don't have access to the 1961 book used to reference the claim that he's considered the Great Sioux War's first casualty, but I can't find that assertion in the sources I have at hand. In the event this is deleted, references to it need to be excised from the several places they've been added in other articles. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 15:46, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - This nominator is making a bad faith, wholesale attempt to remove Miss Universe contestants. Each of them has achieved two events, their National win and their participation in the heavily media covered Miss Universe pageant. All of these Noms should be rejected now and the nominator The Banner should be banned from making such nominations in the future. This one already got covered in Time magazine wearing her national costume.

Based on what information I could find, I'm not convinced this author meets WP:AUTHOR's notability standards. One of the two press citations (the Independent) is broken and I couldn't find a correct reference at the Independent. That leaves only the Guardian. Second, giving away a free download may or may not be innovative enough to make him notable. Finally, the Amazon author page for Matthew Branton suggests that it's merging together multiple authors with similar names, so it's hard to find evidence of notability here either.

An early-career physicist who fails WP:PROF: no evidence of broad impact in his field, no major awards, no high-profile academic posts, etc. He's worked at some fancy schools, but notability is not inherited. He may have promise, but it's too soon to say whether he will one day be notable. Lagrange613 00:32, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand your claim -- he does have a very, very high-profile academic position. IHES is no joke. He is a permanent professor there. This is perhaps equivalent to being a permanent professor at the Institute for Advanced Study. Pestun hence complies at least with criterion 6 in the list of WP:PROF. --Zatrp (talk) 13:32, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Criterion 6 is about holding a "highest-level" post, i.e. being president of a university or a society. See WP:PROF#C6. Lagrange613 00:20, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
At IHES, permanent professorship is indeed the highest academic position available. Other positions, like president or director, would be of a more symbolic/administrative nature. --Zatrp (talk) 20:37, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete. I don't believe a full professorship alone, even at IHES, is enough for WP:PROF. And in a high-citation subject, his Google scholar profile [44] shows only one big hit, a good start but not enough by itself to convince me of a pass of WP:PROF#C1. (Incidentally, although GS shows this paper as an arXiv preprint, it has been reliably published, in Communications in Mathematical Physics 2012.) Is there something else besides these two things that I'm missing? —David Eppstein (talk) 19:09, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Google is kind enough to provide his h-index; 14 in a high hindex field. Buh bye. Abductive (reasoning) 23:29, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Those claiming that IHES permanent professorship is not enough should produce an example of such a professor that was not notable in the past, I think. That would be very surprising -- so much so that it would make him notable! --Zatrp (talk) 20:58, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    This invocation of the interesting number paradox is cute. Were it valid then Wikipedia would have to have on article on every member of every ordered set of people containing at least one notable person. But fortunately it's not, because notability depends on an article's topic, not analogy to other hypothetical article topics. Notability is not the absence of a non-notable point of reference. It's a positive quality, not a negative one. Lagrange613 00:09, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

And that is, in my view, the case here: this contestant (and many others) easily faily WP:GNG and thus the articles should be deleted.

    While I remain convinced that such pageants should be treated like reality programs are, with contestants being redirected to the main article, it's clear that there are multiple sources for the contestants. I'm still unconvinced that simply because there are sources, that an article is merited, particularly given WP:ONEEVENT, but am switching my recommendation to "neutral", based on the fact that I was mistaken about the lack of sources. I do, of course, reserve the right to renominate this article (and others) at a future date, using more apt reasoning than the current nomination presents. My apologies for not looking deeper into the sourcing before making my comments above. LHMask me a question 15:55, 15 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As I said I would, I added more sources. I could easily go on, but why lard up the article? My point was that The Banner deliberately chose to ignore the additional available sources because this series of nominations are his way of making a WP:POINT, and while a Wikipedia talk:Notability (people)#Beauty pageant contestants discussion he is involved in is going on. In my book, that is bad faith. On Wikipedia, we are supposed to deal with facts, whether it is discussing known properties of a chemical reaction or talking about whether a beauty queen is important to some people. The Banner misrepresented the absence of sources. LHM, did you look? Trackinfo (talk) 18:58, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No, my friend, you are making a WP:POINT by accusing me of all kinds of bad things. Just admit that you don't like my nominations and that you prefer personal attacks above arguments. Despite what ever happened, I am still not convinced about her notability as notability is never inherited. The Banner talk 15:58, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Each of them has achieved two events, their National win and their participation in the heavily media covered Miss Universe pageant. I've had to explain to the Nom the meaning of WP:Before and the meaning of bad faith. All of these Noms should be rejected now and the nominator The Banner should be banned from making such nominations in the future.

As per WP:BEFORE I have attempted to find reliable sources that give the subject significant coverage, and have not found any secondary or tertiary reliable sources that give the subject significant coverage. Futhermore, the subject of this article does not appear to meet the more stringent notability guideline of WP:AUTHOR; although the subject has received some minor awards from their alma maters it does not appear to meet the requirement set forth part 4, subpart c of "has won significant critical attention" as the awards are not at the same level as national level awards such as the Pulitzer Prize, Caldecott Medal, or any of the other literary awards listed by the ALA. Therefore, although the individual is an active advocate, writer of opinion, and occasional panelist that is sought to elicit opinion on national news networks, as the subject themselves has not received significant coverage about themselves it appears that the subject fails WP:GNG & AUTHOR.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 21:05, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Hello, RightCowLeftCoast. I appreciate your feedback which has helped me to improve the article. I have rewritten it and added a number of sources. This article fulfills WP:NOTEBLP. Arjun Singh Sethi's writings on a variety of topics have been cited in both works of scholarship and a number of media outlets and all comments below are now fully referenced in the article.
His expertise on matters related to the Wisconsin Sikh temple shooting was cited in the scholarly journal Sikh Formations: Religion, Culture, Theory. It has also led him to be interviewed by the BBC and HuffPost Live and he has been cited on the subject by Al Jazeera, The Wire, Newser, India Abroad, and Tikkun. In addition, The Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times published his essays on the same topic, works which were then syndicated by papers around the country.
Additionally, he has been cited by the Yale Law Journal. Furthermore, his writings on the landmark Gideon v. Wainwright case were cited by both the Texas Court system and The National Coalition for a Civil Right to Counsel. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees also reprinted one of his essays in full on its website. Finally his essays have been published by notable media outlets such as The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, Al Jazeera, The Christian Science Monitor, CNN, The Guardian, USA Today, and the Huffington Post.
Given the number and quality of references, including secondary sources, this article satisfies Wikipedia:Notability and thus should not be deleted.-Classicfilms (talk) 18:12, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I have trimmed and reorganized the article. I am providing a new list below. Arjun Singh Sethi fulfills the following areas of Wikipedia:Notability (people) for creative professionals or WP:AUTHOR:

He is “widely cited by peers” (#1) and as a subject matter expert, his works have garnered “significant critical attention” (#4):


In Scholarship:

In the media:

  • a. CNN states that he is "a frequent commentator on civil rights and social justice-related issues."[1]

Note: The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, Al Jazeera, The Christian Science Monitor, CNN, The Guardian, USA Today, and the Huffington Post have all published work by him. While primary sources, these are notable outlets - see main article for these references.

By non-profits and legal organizations:

  • b. The National Coalition for a Civil Right to Counsel[15][16]

Since this fulfills Wikipedia:Notability (people) for creative professionals or WP:AUTHOR, this article should not be deleted. -Classicfilms (talk) 05:45, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I gave him a shot at ProQuest's Canadian Newsstand Major Dailies database, but unfortunately the only sources that turned up about him were both titled "Spring & Summer Social Calendar". (Substantive coverage fail, bien sûr.) And I'm having about as much luck as the nominator with Google, too — I'm finding lots of commercial/promotional confirmation that he exists, but not a lot of the reliable independent source coverage necessary to support a WP:BLP on Wikipedia. And the chef doesn't even have an article on fr: either — even though the actor is disambiguated there, the undisambiguated fr:Nicolas Moreau is just a redirect to him rather than an article about the chef or a dab page. So I'm going to have to go with the delete here, albeit without prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can actually locate some actual sourcing.

Article was deleted in 2011 after AFD discussion. A new article has been created by an SPA. However, I'm nominating it for discussion rather than speedy deletion as a bit of research suggests that the product may have gained some traction in the Enterprise JavaBeans/Oracle world.

  • keep PrimeFaces is a commercial product, specifically a JSF (Java Server Faces) implementation. So are IceFaces and RichFaces. If were to go after articles for being commercial, then lets start with Ford and Apple. If JSF is "non notable" and too "specialised"[45], then there are a whole bunch of articles to go after. There are many JSF implementations, but these are the three big and popular ones. Knowing precisely which is the biggest or most popular would need more market research than I can pay for, but these are the three that developers are talking about. Why is PrimeFaces being singled out? Viam Ferream (talk) 08:27, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • If I can just focus on today's debate, (a) has Java Server Faces become a frequently used product? The Java Server Faces article somewhat implies that it's withered on the vine; (b) are you telling us that PrimeFaces, IceFaces and RichFaces are the three leading implementations of Java Server Faces? (c) can you give us any more color on the breadth of use of the product? Fiachra10003 (talk) 14:41, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • "Has <any Java component> become a frequently used product?"
Java is an 800 pound gorilla. Even its little finger is pretty powerful. What is the official WP mapping for "frequently used" onto WP:N? Is buggy whip deleted yet?
JSF is unfashionable. Thoughtworks[46] don't like it (per the usual WP source for "Why to delete JSF"). Yet Thoughtworks are still paying attention to it, thus it is notable. JSF is the favoured tool of the deeply corporate, straight-down-the-line whatever-Sun-says J2EE web app shop. Even if the hip young things are too busy with JS-based front ends to notice them, these are the apps that probably deliver your utility bill and your credit card statement.
As to which of the JSF implementations are the big names, then you've only got my opinion (as a JSF developer) to go on (for my usual consultancy rates, you can get it in writing instead), but these are the three (and really only these three) that have any sizable discussion of them within the J2EE community. Maybe MyFaces too, just as its Apache's reference implementation.
As to "The WP article has withered", then that's much more because WP is increasingly seen as an irrelevance to the technical community, not that WP has declared that platform to be irrelevant. Viam Ferream (talk) 15:07, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        • Heres some typical programmer discussion about the merits of the 3: [47]. As is entirley typical, some began with Icefaces but found it a bit slow, Primefaces looks to be the eventual leader.
Google Trends for the big 3 JSF [48]
I'm not claiming that JSF is necessarily the way to go to build a web app, or even a Java web app. The "start up" Java world is ignoring it, even if the corporate suit-and-tie world uses it. If JSF is a notable topic though, the big three are Ice, Rich & Prime and there is some indication that PrimeFaces is the favoured leader amongst these.

  • Comment. She has coverage in AVN and XBIZ, but I'm not sure if this is enough to pass the WP:GNG. Rumor has it she quit porn. Her FreeOnes page lists her Career Status as Retired (Quick Bio Info section on the right). She is also not listed on Spiegler Girls (her agency) anymore. If she quit the business for good, then there will be no more coverage of her in the future and we wouldn't have much to write an article on since her career was so brief. In my personal opinion though, she will probably be back. She is the biggest newcomer in the adult industry this year and will likely be nominated for every Best New Starlet award. I honestly think she has a possibility of winning too if she does return on-time. It's not like this hasn't happened before. Rebecca1990 (talk) 07:23, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • I wouldn't object to userfication then. (SN: I'm not sure FreeOnes is a reliable source.) Erpert blah, blah, blah... 08:53, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • As I said, her retirement is just a rumor, but I'm pretty convinced that it's true. The Rob Black Show is certainly not a reliable source and the reliability of FreeOnes is probably as controversial as the reliability of IAFD or IMDB. But we do know for sure that she is no longer available for bookings on Spiegler Girls and her Twitter was deleted. I was one of her followers and I remember her final tweet being an announcement about her selling all of her porn star wardrobe. Rebecca1990 (talk) 10:45, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        • If waht Rebecca1990 said about her tweeter is true,i suggest it is better to delete the page.If Alina li quit,it proves Alina li wants to forget her past in the adult film industry.After all,most Chinese people still think sex is a private thing,what she did may be viewed as a disgrace to the country and Chinese people.Also most of porn actresses came to a pityful ending.I wish her the best.竖琴老人(talk) 00:22, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
          • Actually, Rebecca, I put the reliability of FreeOnes right up there with Boobpedia (which is one of the most badly written wikis I have ever seen, btw). But maybe that's just me. And 竖琴老人, if she indeed retired, that alone isn't a reason for an article to be deleted; plenty of retired porn (as well as mainstream) actors have articles on here.

    • FYI, AVN and XBIZ are both reliable sources. There are two reliable sources in the article, not just one, one from AVN and one from XBIZ. Both of those sources are independent of the subject. Those interviews aren't "kayfabe" or "promotional". I'm pretty sure Alina Li did not contact AVN and XBIZ and say "Please do an interview on me. I'm new to the industry and I need some exposure." If it worked that way everybody in the industry would do it and AVN and XBIZ would be mostly interviews. There are actually very few interviews in AVN and XBIZ. Interviews actually take place when an editor from either magazine chooses to write and article on someone in the industry. What's promotional about that? If this was a mainstream website and a mainstream actor, no one would make this argument, not even you. Why is it so difficult in our society for people in the sex industry to be taken seriously? AVN and XBIZ are real, reliable news sources with qualified journalists. I'm tired of you dismissing them. Porn is a legal, legitimate business with legitimate news reporters and legitimate award ceremonies, just like in the mainstream film or music industries.

  • Weak Keep. She fails WP:PORNBIO by a strict interpretation, but I think there is an argument to be made that the exceptionally large amount that has been written about her by porn industry sources such as AVN and XBIZ makes her a special case. --Sammy1339 (talk) 23:47, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep. The circulation of Soltani's photo, and how it affected her life, has received some pretty solid coverage (including the BBC and The Guardian) which is very much independent of the death of her near-namesake, and has made its way into some serious academic discussions (see doi:10.1353/bio.2011.0004 and this book). I think the mistake, as well as the subsequent coverage of her life, is sufficiently notable that the article can be kept. If not, a section in the article on the death would certainly be appropriate. J Milburn (talk) 16:37, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Leaning delete/Comment - Actually, if the interviews are used as the basis for an article with plenty of editorial commentary, then they should be valid sources. While Siegel does give good answers (as here), these are more suitable as sources for an article on Not Just a Label, which does seem like it would pass notability requirements. If this were an article about the company, then it would probably pass muster, but I am not seeing much to show that the founder passes the criteria for an article solely on him. On the other hand, NJAL is clearly drawing a lot of attention, respect and is the reason people are interviewing Siegel, so this article should really have been a brief biographical section on a company page.

Yet another campaign brochure, completely unsourced except for primary sources like his own website, for yet another as-yet-unelected candidate in yet another forthcoming election. As usual, merely being a candidate in an election is not, in and of itself, a claim of notability that passes WP:NPOL, and neither is being a city councillor in a city with a population of 41K — if you cannot credibly demonstrate that the candidate was already notable enough for something else to qualify for a Wikipedia article before he became a candidate, then he does not become notable enough for a Wikipedia article until he wins the election.

Not notable, like most associate professors.. The highest citations any of his articles has received is 21, and h= 8. Though I do not judge exclusively or even primarily by h values, numbers like this are so low as to make the lack of notability under WP:PROF very clear, considering that he works in a field where citations are normally quite high. Many people have studied Z-DNA, an extremely important topic; he is not prominent in the field, let alone an authority. The list of awards is nonsense: most of them are student or in-college awards, which do not count toward notability. The only one even worth considering is "NJ inventors Hall of Fame", and I am not convinced that it really has any significance either. "He will be receiving patents in the future" is a clear indication of"not yet notable"

I have consistently for many years tried to increase our deplorably inadequate coverage of notable academic researchers, but not all academic researchers are notable. We need to concentrate on the ones who are. I should note that I tend now to be rather skeptical about academics where the awards or accomplishments are listed in a table: this is not our style, and it indicates that the article was written by someone not familiar with WP, usually someone associated with the subject, or a PR agent for their organization.

Local councillor and Parliamentary candidate and, as such, fails WP:POLITICIAN. Some reliable source coverage exists, but it is either not independent of the source (e.g. Labour Party related) or not significant coverage of the individual.

Thanking you for developing the article; I'm afraid it still doesn't look notable to me. I don't understand what you mean by, "The question is whether the subject is notable. Not whether the article is notable." Bondegezou (talk) 20:52, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Candidates for office do not qualify for Wikipedia articles under WP:NPOL just for being candidates (nor do city councillors qualify for articles under NPOL just for being city councillors.) If you cannot adequately source that he was already sufficiently notable for a Wikipedia article before becoming a parliamentary candidate, then he does not become notable enough for a Wikipedia article until he wins the election. It is potentially possible for a city councillor in a city the size of Leeds to qualify for an article — he's not entitled to an automatic keep on that basis, but could still be considered sufficiently notable if you wrote a really substantial article about his work as a city councillor and power-sourced it over the WP:GNG hump. But that's not what's been done here — as written, this is barely more than a campaign brochure, and Wikipedia's inclusion rules for politicians (and our content rules governing even the politicians who do qualify for coverage on here) are specifically designed around the principle of weeding out campaign brochures.

Delete There is no indication of notability for these individual fictional planets. Most of the entries are sourced solely (if at all) by the books in which they appear. It is doubtful that there would be much in the way of secondary sourcing available for many of them. Planets that do have significant coverage in independent, reliable sources should be included in the main list of planets, or have their own article as required. Further to all of this much of the article is written "in universe", and while correctable, I don't see the point given the lack of secondary sourcing. There are alternative outlets for such extensive lists of planets, which I am sure already exist. --kelapstick(bainuu) 17:51, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Four secondary sources (i.e., published independently by a third party) for a list of this type is GNG. VMS Mosaic (talk) 05:40, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    But the secondary sources are sources of information for only a few planets. They are not notable enough to stand alone if we were to remove all the info sourced form unreliable sources. Nathan121212 (talk) 05:44, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    @VMS Mosaic: These are not secondary sources independent from the franchise. The book The Essential Guide to Planets and Moons is published by LucasBooks. Also, WP:GAMEGUIDE says to "avoid lists of gameplay weapons, items, or concepts, unless these are notable in their own right", and this applies to planets. Basically, game guides could supplement a passage about a notable planet, but they do not count as secondary sources toward establishing notability. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:05, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Please see WP:CSC #2 which explicitly allows this list given the above delete arguments that every list member "fails the notability criteria." This list goes very far beyond being only game related, so WP:GAMEGUIDE is not at all applicable. VMS Mosaic (talk) 07:43, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    That guideline also states, "However, if a complete list would include hundreds of entries, then you should use the notability standard to provide focus to the list." Here we have hundreds of entries of indiscriminate planets, so list of Star Wars planets can focus on those actually mentioned in independent sources, like the National Geographic one I linked above. In-universe content should not be outweighing independent commentary; WP:WAF#Real-world perspective says, "Real-world perspective is not an optional quality criterion but a general, basic requirement for all articles." That perspective needs to have more than just in-universe content. That is what Wookieepedia is suitable for. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 12:19, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    This could be included in the main list article to basically tell readers that Wookieepedia goes into detail about planets. An external link would be available, and readers can become accustomed to Wookieepedia as a source for in-universe content. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 12:24, 18 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. These articles date back to an earlier period in Wikipedia's history, when we had very loose inclusion criteria. Back then, it was still widely accepted that Wikipedia was the "sum of all human knowledge", including intrawiki fan sites for major franchises. Although interesting to fans, it is far too indiscriminate for Wikipedia, and it belongs on Wikia, which welcomes in-universe writing and non-independent sources. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:18, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I think WP:OBTOP, WP:OBSCURE and WP:BELONG have some applicability here. Yes, there is a lot of in-universe, but there is also a good bit of out of universe material. Unfortunately, most of the editors who would have improved the article(s) to meet current guidelines have long since been all but forcibly driven away from editing Wikipedia. We need many more editors; not the current death spiral. VMS Mosaic (talk) 07:46, 22 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:OBSCURE is an essay that, in terms of in-universe content, does not correspond with Wikipedia's policy of not being an indiscriminate collection of information. The policy states, "Wikipedia treats fiction in an encyclopedic manner, discussing the reception and significance of notable works in addition to a concise summary." This indicates the need for emphasis on secondary sources providing independent commentary on the subject matter. There is no abundance of "out-of-universe material" that is not simply identifying the primary sources in which a fictional planet appears.

    I couldn't care less, Some things just belong elsewhere and imho this is one of them, If my argument falls in the "Belong" category then I'm absolutely chuffed!....Davey2010(talk) 05:29, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per not violating policy being sourcable and meeting WP:SALAT. With respects Davey2010, while certainly information in Wikipedia could be included outside these pages, "crap" is not an argument against a list article here. I find mass nominations to be unhelpful, specially when all nominated are then judged by addressable weakness in on or two. Schmidt, Michael Q. 04:46, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    There is no independent sourcing here that vouches for the vast majority of the content, which is simply descriptions of the planets from primary sources. WP:SALAT says, "To keep the system of lists useful, we must limit the size and topic of lists." The primary-source content far outweighs any secondary-source content that may be available (and would be focused on the so-called "major" planets). Per WP:CSC #3, "If a complete list would include hundreds of entries, then you should use the notability standard to provide focus to the list." This is why I advocate keeping list of Star Wars planets (not up for AfD here); it is definitely worth identifying those that have been covered in secondary sources (typically the film ones) and referencing both primary and secondary sources for each planet in their own section. Unfortunately, most of the planets across all these subset articles do not have any secondary sourcing and thus go against WP:INDISCRIMINATE's definition of how fiction is treated in an encyclopedic manner (along with WP:WAF, which gets more specific, as I explained above). Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 11:24, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Michael, I respectfully disagree with your assessment regarding mass nominations. While sometimes (usually) unhelpful, in this case it is the only way a nomination would make sense. It would not make sense to delete (or nominate for deletion) planets A-B, but keep (or not nominate) the remainder. Why would A-B be any less noteworthy than C-D, or any other for that matter? It certainly doesn't make sense to have the same discussion across ten different AfD pages. A series of lists organized in this manner only makes sense if it is all or nothing, which is the way a deletion discussion on the matter should be conducted. I do however agree with your assessment that general "this is crap" and "I don't like it" style arguments are not helpful, and are contrary to what we would expect in an AfD discussion. As Erik says (and I did above), the planets with significant, third party sources, should either have their own articles (as does Alderaan for example), or are covered in List of Star Wars planets. It should be noted that many of the planets that do have articles are poorly sourced and generally written in-universe as well (which of course is grounds for improvement, not deletion). I personally don't see the need to document every minute detail of the expanded Star Wars universe. If the only sourcing available is the books in which they appear, the General Notability Guidelines agree with me. --kelapstick(bainuu) 19:32, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    True kelapstick, I find WP:DONTLIKEIT arguments to be decidedly unhelpful. My issue with this mass nomination is that it requires that the several hundred grouped topics be searched, and the several hundred included refs be checked. This would almost call for 4 or 5 mandatory relistings to allow that quantity of work to be done. Schmidt, Michael Q. 22:58, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete All. There aren't enough reliable sources to make viable articles about these fictional planets and worlds. We end up having an indiscriminate collection here, unable to tell notable planets from planets which were mentioned once in some obscure pulp-fiction book which supports the fictional universe. The in-universe content would be fine if it were supported by out-of-universe references (academic study or critical analysis, for example) but that just doesn't happen. -- Mikeblas (talk) 00:55, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • You wish to delete all because of issues with some of the listed planets? Why not simply propose someone go through the 300+ planets listed and delete those unsourced? Would you also wish deletion of the blue-linked planets on the lists because they are also in-universe? As they are all fictional elements, why not simply merge and redirect them all to the Star wars article.... the one place where these fictional elements might merit any mention. Or we could just as simply nominate every article even remotely related to Star Wars, as every part of the series is fiction or based on fiction, which raises the question "just what part of Star Wars is not WP:INUNIVERSE so as to meet WP:Real world?" Schmidt, Michael Q. 03:23, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - Given that WP:CSC #2 has been stated as a keep reason (regardless of who believes they have refuted it), I think it is improper to remove any items from any of the lists based on notability until this AfD has been closed. VMS Mosaic (talk) 03:06, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I have been working on these articles while the AfD is going on and have deleted numerous list items. I have not done this on the basis of notability: rather, I have deleted material that is not supported by secondary, reliable sources. I have done this under WP:V. I quote: "All material in Wikipedia mainspace, including everything in articles, lists and captions, must be verifiable. All quotations, and any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation that directly supports the material. Any material that needs a source but does not have one may be removed." I hope that explains my approach and is satisfactory to other editors. My aim is to (a) improve articles as per basic Wikipedia policy; and (b) see what is left having done that in order to inform this AfD discussion. Bondegezou (talk) 09:12, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Per WP:PSTS and WP:PRIMARYNOTBAD, a primary source is perfectly acceptable as the only source for actual "facts" such as planet x is found on page y of book z about universe w. Given that, every single planet listed has a primary source; some actually cited while many others need the citation added. That is all that is needed to meet WP:V. Notability for each planet is not required per WP:CSC #2; notability only applies to the list itself. Either the policy and the explaining essay mean what they say or they need to be rewritten. I believe they mean what they say. VMS Mosaic (talk) 23:17, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
My apologies then, VMS Mosaic. I have been over-zealous with some edits. Some of the material I deleted had no citations: I take it we are agreed that that can be deleted under WP:V. Some had primary sources. Feel free to revert my edits wholesale, or go through and just return those with primary sources. If I have time, I will do some more work on the articles. Bondegezou (talk) 09:40, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
There is not abundant secondary sourcing about planets in the Star Wars fictional universe to warrant splitting a Wikipedia list article into subsets. Content from primary sources should not outweigh content from secondary sources, so a single list can be appropriate. Nobody here has argued against list of Star Wars planets; they have argued against the high level of detail from primary sources in the light of nearly no detail from secondary sources. Bondegezou's removal of this level of detail is appropriate. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 17:35, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
My issue was with removing entire entries. If an entry exists within the SW universe, then it by definition has at least one primary source available. Yes, the cites and/or citation needed tags need to be added. Yes, some excessive detail, in particular any analysis or detail not supported by primary (or secondary) sources, can be removed. I have no issue with combining into fewer articles as long as WP:TOOLONG doesn't come into play. VMS Mosaic (talk) 01:22, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. No one has offerred any explanation of why we need two competing lists. The implication is that list of Star Wars planets represents the planets that are actually notable and this longer list is the "deep fandom" stuff. There is no ban on the use of primary sources!

  • Delete All - Contrary to Schmidt's assertion above, it fails WP:SALAT because it epitomises What Wikipedia is not. Some topics are trivial, non-encyclopedic, or not related to human knowledge. A list like this one needs to explain why it contributes to the state of human knowledge. Additionally, per nom. there is grossly inadequate citation to reliable secondary sources for individual entries and their content (or even reliable sources); and per editor Claimsworth, the list of Star Wars planets covers the notable ground. --Bejnar (talk) 16:05, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete all- Excessively lengthy, in-universe fancruft sourced only to the works of fiction themselves (and poorly, at that). We've already got a list of star wars planets, and there is no need for a second ten-volume repetition. Reyk YO! 01:29, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Justified by it being about a major work of fiction. Separate articles about each of them is what would be excessive. But a mere list is nnot undue coverage, or inappropiate. This is talking about a fictional universe, so sources from the fiction are sufficient. Asking ofr deletion oin the ground of it being "fictious" is a limitation of the role of WP, which talks about notable fiction in the same fdetail as other notable subjects.

MichaelQSchmidt long time no see, I believe we have not interacted since Rome, Sweet Rome. There are many unique pieces of art that are displayed in galleries and museums. Very few (percentage wise) are notable. This one is only exhibited temporarily to boot. It has won no awards, received no commentary or critique. or any other trappings of notability. The artist was certainly selected to create the work by the museum for the exhibition, but that would be true of whatever bit of art she happened to create. The one she actually did create has not been noticed by anyone subsequently. using WP:ARTIST as a proxy, its possible that it could satisfy 4.b but its borderline, and it certainly fails 1-3 and 4a,c, and d.

Well... to be fair, I've been a part of several and installation pieces are not the same as permanent; they usually travel and are seen at only one location at a time. This brand new article may simply fall under a version of TOO SOON. It's public appearance is recent and it may capture the attention of reliable sources. If so, we can consider undeletion or recreation. Does its author or an article contributor wish it userfied? Schmidt, Michael Q. 20:21, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I am certainly not arguing that this work can never become notable, just that it isn't now. (Although I think its more appropriate to treat it as a work of art than a film, even though film is involved.) Gaijin42 (talk) 20:24, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. Pat O'Neill's The Decay of Fiction, Michael Haussman's A Study in Gravity and Yoshua Okón's Salò Island are similar... art statements displayed in a film format. Some of the artists and works have articles. Others, not yet. Schmidt, Michael Q. 20:42, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete non barely sourced artist spam. a temporary installation at a museum by a non-notable artist is hardly worthy of the encyclopedia.Cramyourspam (talk) 14:49, 1 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retain - This article details an important technical 'world's first' being the first example of a 12K Video Sculpture anywhere in the world - something which is technically complex to achieve and even more so to do with artistic integrity. As such it has rightly earned a place in the history books, which ought to be sufficient justification for a few K of space on a Wikipedia server. The world is waking up to 4K video, and 8K has been recently demonstrated. 12K systems are already in development by major technology manufacturers, and will become more and more important over the coming years. Acknowledging and learning about early examples of this technology cover an *essential* part of information technology history, irrespective of the artist's individual merit. Indeed unprecedented artistic endeavours like this often become signposts for both art and technology followers. As a unique physical experience which cannot be reproduced 'online' - this work must be experienced to be appreciated. Arguably, anyone who has not witnessed this artwork *in person* may not be qualified to judge its merit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.44.233.250 (talk) 09:03, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
what "history books" would those be exactly, artist-IP? and the trivial technical "first" is not much of a claim to fame. i don't think the "first" art video in 8mm film, 16mm film, VHS tape, MP4 video, MOV video, (etc etc etc) or any other format has its own encyclopedia article. if there exists an article about this 12k video format, then there could be included there a line or two: "the first (sic SOURCES?) art video in 12k video format was Breathless Beauty, Broken Beauty by artist/filmmaker Vanessa Jane Hall" --and even that is a stretch. Cramyourspam (talk) 13:29, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The art doesn't use the non-existent 12k video format. It is 3 4k displays put together. Otherwise known as a Video wall, a technique that has been out for decades. And Video sculpture has been a thing since the 50s (and note the actual pioneers in that field of art do not have articles dedicated to their pieces) Gaijin42 (talk) 14:55, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Totally unsourced, possibly apocryphical and apparently unsourceable biography of what is either a character made up by Horrible Histories, or a figure so insignificant nobody has ever seen fit to write about him. Zero Google hits on either web or book search (there are a few false-positives on "Basil Hood pirate" as Basil Hood worked with Gilbert and Sullivan, the creators of Pirates of Penzance; everything else seems to trace back to HH). The whole story (as given here for instance) reeks of bullshit (pun intended). The idea that it's impossible to transport cattle by ship is obvious nonsense, as is the idea that a military officer would release a violent criminal because he smelled bad. I don't see how this can ever be a viable article unless someone can dig up a reliable source, and I certainly can't find a single one.  Mogism (talk) 16:38, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mind if this gets deleted, and it is probably best to be deleted, as this is yet another fan list that is quite likely not to be maintained in any consistent way (there are already enough half baked football related articles, I say...) BUT note that 1) lists of this kind are perfectly common in yearly sports magazines / reviews (i.e. it is fair to presume that sources exist and are not hard to find) 2) "major" will be surely settled by those sources - and eventually a little discussion to chose here and there. Anyway, 'major' is evident in most cases: competitions organized by the national football federation, which are in general quite easy to know which are (FIFA / UEFA / CAF / ... recognition) 3) There are several other similar articles, better take that in consideration, to avoid too much of different criteria - Nabla (talk) 20:18, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fails GNG. I did a WP:BEFORE search on him and there is only 1 independent, feature story on him, which was from earlier this month. I want to point out in advance that I expect someone to say he passes WP:NSOCCER for "Players who have played, and managers who have managed in a fully professional league, will generally be regarded as notable" (he has appeared in 1 game, as of 9/22/14, in the USL Pro league). However, that mark of notability is a guideline and does not supercede GNG, which is the ultimate mark of notability. Nearly all of the gHits on Kiffe are social media-related, basic sports website rankings/playerfiles, WP:ROUTINE game coverage, and some aren't even independent sources (the UCSB school refs are for supporting purposes only, they cannot be used as primary sources). He may be notable next season, who knows, but right now, nope. Jrcla2 (talk) 02:11, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep or Modify AfD: I am wary that User:Jrcla2’s WP:BEFORE search did not reveal that Kiffe was inserted straight into the starting lineup after being signed at the end of the season and since his signing has played in 5 straight regular season matches plus Sacramento's first playoff match – not just the one as stated in the article. I am also wary that User:GiantSnowman is erroneously claiming a failed WP:NFOOTBALL, which is already clearly stated as passed in the original AfD nomination above that his response is in support of.
Additionally, I find it quite hypocritical that User:Jrcla2 seems to ignore WP:ATHLETE in this instance, however uses it as an argument in a separate article.
In any event, WP:GNG as always is the ultimate decider which Kiffe, in my opinion, seems to meet based on this and this and this and this and has various independent recognition of his play and talent.
However, if Kiffe is deemed non-notable by the masses, then I would modify current AfD to include collegiate soccer players who have relatively equivalent or lesser claims than Kiffe. A few soccer players who seem to be affected would include:

  • WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS in response to all of the other names listed – those are case-by-case and have 0 bearing on this AfD. Per the sources listed, this is routine and about two players being selected in a draft, this is as routine as it gets, this is literally a list of many award winners (not an article about Kiffe), this falls under the same umbrella as the previous link which is a list of award winners and not about Kiffe, and this is a press release of award winners/not about Kiffe.

  • Comment: I believe you have misinterpreted my comment above re: other players. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is used incorrectly most often when trying to argue to keep or delete something. That's not the case here. I am pointing out that: 1. "In consideration of precedent and consistency, though, identifying articles of the same nature that have been established and continue to exist on Wikipedia may provide extremely important insight into general notability of concepts, levels of notability (what's notable: international, national, regional, state, provincial?), and whether or not a level and type of article should be on Wikipedia." and 2. "... these comparisons are important as the encyclopedia should be consistent in the content that it provides or excludes.", both taken from WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS itself. The players above are not in support of keeping or deleting the Kiffe article, but provided as comparison to previous widely accepted thresholds.

  • Comment I don't have a lot of passion either way on this, but in have to say if WP:NFOOTBALL says that players who appear in one USL Pro game is notable, then that is an incredibly lax standard. It's a second/third tier league in a country that isn't that into soccer. I know because I live in a town with a franchise and they get less media coverage than the local single-A baseball team (let alone the D1 colleges within a 90 mile radius).

          • Yes, football is a global game, but its popularity in every country is not the same. I would fully accept that a "fully professional" player appearing in at least one game in football-mad England, Spain, Italy, etc would meet GNG. However, in the US, third-division level players do not receive the level of press to satisfy GNG across the board. The standard applies a broad brush stroke that is not correct in all cases. News flash - basketball is also a global sport. But players in the top league in England don't enjoy the level of news coverage to be expected to satisfy GNG across the board, but in Italy or Spain you can bet the top division players do (and this context is what WP:NBASKETBALL tries to convey). Hence my point. Rikster2 (talk) 14:23, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep based on some of the sources put forth by GauchoDude, I think he is (barely) notable. However, all of you citing FOOTY as the reason need to re-read the preamble for WP:NSPORTS and the top of the list of professional leagues because both are clear that they do not in and of themselves constitute notability. The user who said that the criteria listed therein are meant to show those who are "more than likely" would meet GNG was correct, but I would again argue that USL Pro does not achieve that, whether or not it is "fully professional." Are we saying that ANYONE who has played even a game in that league is more than likely notable? Because I would challenge that based on being in a USL Pro market and seeing the actual level of coverage for this minor league. In my opinion, that shouldn't be in the guideline and takes away credibility from WP:NFOOTY. Rikster2 (talk) 10:52, 26 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I have absolutely no comprehension why User:Jrcla2 created this AFD. WP:NOTE clearly states that an article is meritable if it either meets WP:GNG or it meets a one of the subject-specific guidlines that are listed - one of which is WP:NSPORT. I believe everyone agrees that the article meets WP:NSPORT (specifically it meets WP:NFOOTY). How then, is there any basis for deletion? It's not even a borderline, played once for 5 minutes; he's a current player whose has had 4 recent starts [53].

PROD was contested by the article's creator because he played in the Azerbaijan top division. Since that league is not confirmed as fully pro, playing in it does not confer notability.

I am tired of wikipedians proposing to delete articles that they personally consider they could do without. Your assertion is wrong. WP:GNG does not mention anything about fully professional leagues. Also, you must back up your belittling claims with reliable sources about the Azerbaijan league, when you claim that it is not worth any attention.

The Intertoto Cup was little more than glorified qualifying rounds for the UEFA Cup/Europa League and playing in it at any stage does not confer notability.

The reason to delete here is the absence of reliable sources. Joe Decker sums the situation up nicely in his closing remarks in an AfD concerning another Azeri footballer:
In this instance, NFOOTY gives a plainly ambiguous result. Having looked to the April discussion at WT:NFOOTY, I find that while there was a consensus to remove the [Azerbaijan Premier] League from the [List of fully professional leagues], I do not see that there is a consensus about whether the league is or isn't fully-professional, it is instead simply so far unverified either way. We don't know...In addition, SNGs in general and NFOOTY in particular is usually, as a matter of textual interpretation, treated as putting the burden of proof on those wishing to show notability via the criteria, which further reduced the weight of keep arguments based on NFOOTY.
Simply put it is the absence of reliable sources concerning the professional standing of the Azerbaijan Premier League that means the article fails WP:NFOOTY and the absence of significant coverage in reliable sources that means the article fails WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 04:04, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As Bogslav pointed out in their first comment, WP:GNG doesn't mention anything about particular footballing accomplishments. They are only relevant to general notability if they have generated significant coverage, which does not appear to be the case here. The sources listed in the article are routine sports journalism that one would expect to find even for footballers well below the threshold of notability. Sir Sputnik (talk) 16:47, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep With 7 Champions League appearances and 22 Europa League appearances over the last decade, and being the top goalscorer in the top league in a country where football is the top sport, it's inconceivable that if one had access to local press, that there wouldn't be abundant evidence to meet WP:GNG. To suggest deletion of this article is an extreme example of WP:BIAS. Nfitz (talk) 21:41, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP, relying entirely on primary sources with not a shred of reliable source coverage in sight, of a person notable only as a local radio personality in a single media market. This is not a notability claim that gets a person into Wikipedia, needless to say — a broadcaster with anything short of a national platform has to be sourced well enough to get over WP:GNG, which this isn't. It's also a likely WP:COI, as the original creator was User:Gary550 — which isn't a deletion rationale in and of itself, I know, but does confirm that the intent here was likely advertorial rather than encyclopedic.

  • Keep. Far from being unnecessary reiteration, this is a useful historical tool — a well-researched and detailed list which depicts, at a glance, all of the pertinent details regarding the three respective American presidential runs, while also providing instant comparison between the candidates from the three same-named parties and the instant-overview specifics for each of the elections. Such comparative details are not readily available from each of the individual articles on the three elections and, without this entry, would require moving back-and-forth between the articles and taking notes. —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 05:43, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@postdlf - It doesn't really matter if no other source has combined these campaigns in a single list in this way, so long as no novel claim is being made. If the article intimated that this was all one political movement, with some sort of ideological or organizational continuity, that would be a novel historical argument and thus prohibited "Original Research." This is just a unique mashup of indisputable historical facts, making no claims other than being a LIST of PROGRESSIVE PARTY PRESIDENTIAL TICKETS. Carrite (talk) 16:37, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - This is three distinct political movements: TR's trustbuster Republicans (center-right ideologically), Robert LaFollette's more or less independent run for Presidency (there was no real party behind it, it was essentially a ballot name, backed by the trade unions and the Socialist Party; center-left ideologically); and the anti-Cold War liberal Democratic organization associated with former Sec. of Agriculture Henry Wallace and backed by the Communist Party (center-left ideologically). The fact that this is an unabashed LIST of these otherwise pretty much unrelated things using the same name makes it okay, in my view. I don't see this as a fork either.

    • Combining them in a list like this implies a continuity that isn't there, and the list would require some pretty heavy disclaimers to resist that tendency, more effort than whatever this is worth (which isn't anything that I can see). If you acknowledge that they merely shared names, it's like you're endorsing a "list of people from any place named Peoria". postdlf (talk) 18:28, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It wouldn't be hard to write a heavy disclaimer. In fact there needs to be a heavy disclaimer. This, of course, is a simple editing matter, not really an aspect of a notability challenge. Carrite (talk) 06:32, 8 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
This page is actually greatly similar to a page I launched, List of Canadian socialist parties (limited to the very early years so far) ... Those organizations are apples and oranges and pears to some extent, although with greater continuity than the three "Progressive Party" organizations here. Still, not to use an OTHERSTUFF argument, such pages of unlike things are more or less a device to help a newcomer decode one organization from another — a disambiguation page on steroids, if you will.

WP:LISTCRUFT of Google logo#Google Doodles that have appeared on the site between 1998 and 2009. While the official Google logo meets WP:N, individual daily iterations that follow pop culture, political or social trends do not meet WP:N. Any individual doodles of significance are mentioned in the Google Doodles section of the Google logo article. The article does include references for some of the doodles, the bulk of content is unsourced, especially those beyond 2001. AldezD (talk) 00:00, 23 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:WEBCRIT states "The content itself has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself." Although some of the Doodles listed in List of Google Doodles (1998–2009) in are referenced, the List of Google Doodles (1998–2009)#References listed are largely verification of the Doodle that appeared on a specific day; these references are not WP:SIGCOV of each individual Doodle.

I am also nominating the following related pages because the articles feature the same issues listed above:
