This stub seems redundant with Acheolus and Acius. Not sure why this combo stub is necessary. Gjs238 (talk) 23:58, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- The stub was a redirect to Acius, but after the Acheolus article was started an article pointing to the two seemed to make more sense than a redirect pointing to one or the other. The sources usually treat the two saints as a pair. Possibly Acheolus and Acius should be merged into this one. There are a surprising number of articles on pairs or groups of saints that were martyred together, where little or nothing else is known of them individually.

- Keep and Merge the two individual articles into this one - There aren't a whole lot of sources on them, but those that are already in these articles, and that I've found with searches, all seem to discuss them exclusively as a pair. On top of that, the two current separate articles are nearly identical in content, as they are both being based off of the same sources that discuss them together. It would make more sense, in this case, to make this the primary article and have the two individual articles redirect here instead. Rorshacma (talk) 00:03, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep and merge per Rorshacma. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:07, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
- I can do the merge after a close as keep: basically just copy over Acheolus and tweak the lead to refer to both saints. They both have the same date of death etc.. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:37, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

Fails WP:NFOOTY, as he has never played nor coached in a fully-pro league. Seems to fail WP:GNG: the only independent coverage I've found on him is this, everything else is just routine transfer coverage. Nehme1499 23:36, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

- Comment unless I'm mistaken, he has been (interim) head coach in the USL Championship, which is an FPL. Joseph2302 (talk) 07:55, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Comment Leigh is currently the caretaker manager of OKC Energy FC which is the a fully professional league, the second division in the United States USL Championship and as he won more in 4 matches than the last manager did in 2 years, there is a decent chance he will retain the role of manager in years to come 405footballfan (talk) 13:52, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

- Keep he has just started out as manager/head coach, would expect coverage to increase the more matches he leads. Joseph2302 (talk) 07:51, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - He fails WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage. WP:NFOOTBALL does not supersede WP:GNG. Passing WP:NFOOTBALL, or any of the other sports-specific notability guidelines in WP:ATHLETE, is not an automatic notability pass per WP:ATHLETE own FAQ at the top of its page.
Q1: How is this guideline related to the general notability guideline?
A2: The topic-specific notability guidelines described on this page do not replace the general notability guideline. They are intended only to stop an article from being quickly deleted when there is very strong reason to believe that significant, independent, non-routine, non-promotional secondary coverage from multiple reliable sources is available, given sufficient time to locate it. Wikipedia's standard for including an article about a given person is not based on whether or not he/she has attained certain achievements, but on whether or not the person has received appropriate coverage in reliable sources, in accordance with the general notability guideline. Also refer to Wikipedia's basic guidance on the notability of people for additional information on evaluating notability.)Q2: If a sports figure meets the criteria specified in a sports-specific notability guideline, does this mean he/she does not have to meet the general notability guideline?
A2: No, the article must still eventually provide sources indicating that the subject meets the general notability guideline. Although the criteria for a given sport should be chosen to be a very reliable predictor of the availability of appropriate secondary coverage from reliable sources, there can be exceptions. For contemporary persons, given a reasonable amount of time to locate appropriate sources, the general notability guideline should be met in order for an article to meet Wikipedia's standards for inclusion. (For subjects in the past where it is more difficult to locate sources, it may be necessary to evaluate the subject's likely notability based on other persons of the same time period with similar characteristics.)
So in short, if nobody here can come up with sources that shows the subject passes WP:GNG then the article should be deleted per Wikipedia community consensus. Arguments that he could have coverage in the future are invalid per WP:CRYSTALBALL. Alvaldi (talk) 13:25, 15 July 2021 (UTC)Q3: If a sports figure does not meet the criteria specified in a sports-specific notability guideline, does this mean he/she does not meet Wikipedia's notability standards?
A3: No, it does not mean this—if the subject meets the general notability guideline, then he/she meets Wikipedia's standards for having an article in Wikipedia, even if he/she does not meet the criteria for the appropriate sports-specific notability guideline. The sports-specific notability guidelines are not intended to set a higher bar for inclusion in Wikipedia: they are meant to provide some buffer time to locate appropriate reliable sources when, based on rules of thumb, it is highly likely that these sources exist.)
- Alvaldi You do know that posting exactly the same text at every sport AfD, instead of actually looking at the merit of the sources in the article, is not a valid criteria. Stop with your WP:WIKILAWYERING, and start actually explaining why you think people do or don't meet WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:36, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Joseph2302: As I stated in my comment, he fails WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage. And if you want me to go deeper into that, then that is fine. The only significant coverage presented here that goes into the subject is this and then there is this in the article itself [3] which is not enough to pass WP:GNG. Out of curiosity, will you be asking other !voters to explain their !votes further? Alvaldi (talk) 13:57, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Alvaldi: Not trying to stir the pot, I just want to explain my thinking. Leigh is as notable as any other head coach in the USL correct? He is listed as the manager on the official club website and on the USL site. Leigh is mentioned and discussed as the manager on ESPN broadcasts and even shown on the touchline of ESPN, a national sports media company. If we say he isn't notable because the google algorithm doesn't pull up every single place his name is mentioned on the internet or traditional television media, then we would have to purge Wikipedia of every USL manager. If that were to happen, then we have deleted articles of almost all head coaches of a fully professional league and the second division of football in one of the largest countries in the world. Many other users in this section have deemed the article and its subject notable enough to keep, even the user who first recommended for deletion noted that they overlooked his role as head coach that gave him notability. Again, these are just my thoughts, I'm not trying to step on any toes. 405footballfan (talk) 14:17, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
- @405footballfan:No pots being stirred and no toes being stepped on, I am more than happy to have a discussion on the matter. First and foremost, the Wikipedia community consensus is pretty clear on that being a coach or a player in a FPL does not make the individual automatically notable. What makes them notable is if they get significant coverage in multiple publications (two articles from one publications count as one towards GNG) that are independent of the subject (no team or league websites) over some period of time (short blurb of coverage over a month won't do). So even if we believe the individual should or might have the coverage we still have to prove he has it for the article to be kept. The three above keep !votes fail to do that by 1. claiming that the subject passes WP:GNG without pointing to any sources to back that up 2. state that he passes WP:NFOOTBALL but leaving out the fact he still has to pass GNG per WP:ATHLETE or 3. state that he might have sources in the future which clearly goes against Wikipedia's community consensus per WP:CRYSTALBALL and WP:TOOSOON. (Note that User:Joseph2302 later did add two sources to his answer). For a modern day individual in an english speaking country, it is usually fairly easy to find that coverage if he has recieved it. If certain head coaches in the USL fail to generate the significant coverage to pass WP:GNG then unfortunately yes, their articles should be deleted. But WP:GNG is not a ridiculously high bar, generally it is enough to show a subject has 3-4 good significant sources for them to survive AfD. I've only been able to find two, from The Des Moines Register[4] and from The Oklahoman[5]. User:Joseph2302 does link to an article on a website called oursportscentral.com which does not look like a major publication. If Veidman is truly notable, then there should not be a problem to find a couple of other significant sources about him somewhere. Alvaldi (talk) 17:16, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Alvaldi: Clicking the news tab at the top of this page brings up various news publications that cover Leigh and his acts as a head coach such as Tulsa World. [6]. One that is also notable, I would believe, is from the USL Championship publication staff.[7] That is 4 notable sources now in favor of Leigh Veidman's noterity. 405footballfan (talk) 19:15, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
- @405footballfan: The one from the USL Championship publication staff unfortunately constitutes as a WP:PRIMARY source (primary sources are for instance team or league websites) and as such does not go towards GNG. It was also only a WP:TRIVIAL mention on top of that. The Tulsa World is a secondary source but Veidman only has a brief one-line mention that goes against WP:TRIVIAL. I did go through the rest of the Google hits and also looked for him on Newspapers.com but again only found trivial mentions of him. Alvaldi (talk) 19:39, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Alvaldi: Is a podcast with OSG Sports, a podcast produced by award winning sports journalists [8] where he is the main topic notable? [9] Or is this other podcast called “Behind the touchline with George Zambrano,” who is a FA level 1 talent identification scout and a football agent, in the WP refs link notable? [10] 405footballfan (talk) 21:45, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
- @405footballfan: Honestly, both of those podcasts seem to be rather minor. I couldn't really find any independent info on them and judging by their social media accounts those are fringe publications. Alvaldi (talk) 09:10, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Alvaldi: and this article from OKC Fox 25 [11] which is literally titled “Energy FC will have a new coach” referring to Veidman taking over as head coach while Energy start to look at new possibilities, which is written in the article isn’t enough? It was sourced in the wiki article itself. This is my last attempt to try to prove notability. He seems to have enough coverage. You can Google and find his name and pictures from multiple sources, even on transfermarkt (which I know isn’t a source used for Wiki notability but as a football fan would know, that’s massive). He’s on television broadcast every week when the team plays. This is a new age of media where newspapers are dying and television and especially social media are taking over. I always assume good faith, and I know that you’re trying to keep to Wikipedia guidelines. Obviously it’s “whataboutism” but there are various articles with less sources and less notability. I believe Wikipedia is meant to be a source of knowledge and that if an article is well sourced and true, it should remain. Especially when it passes it’s subject specific notability, and obviously WP:GNG supersedes Wikiproject Football, but it’s worth noting. Again, it’s not like you can’t readily find out who Leigh Veidman is from a simple Google search. 405footballfan (talk) 13:17,17 July 2021 (UTC)
- The OKC Fox 25 article is the type of article that gets classified as a routine signing article. They are fine for sourcing a certain transfer in an Wikipedia article but generally does not constitude as a significant coverage when it comes to AfD's. I completely understand that this is frustrating as I have been at your end in a similar conversation early in my Wikipedia days. Veidman's article might very well be kept, depends on the closing admin, but note that if no more significant sources are added to it then there is a good chance that it will be nominated again for AfD. I highly recommend having always at least WP:THREE good sources when creating an article, it is more often than not enough for it to stay out of AfD. Best of luck.

- Keep. Her books have been reviewed, in the Baltimore Sun,Publishers Weekly (according to amazon.ca), the Seattle Times, the Chicago Tribune, so WP:NAUTHOR is satisfied, plus the relationship is so well-known and LGBT-noteworthy, she transcends being just noted in Navratilova's article. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:36, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep and expand, per WP:BASIC and WP:AUTHOR, e.g. context: "...this was the Eighties and uneasy commentators would only ever venture that Nelson was Navratilova's 'friend'. After eight years together the couple split in 1991." etc., (Guardian, 2006, also noting the palimony lawsuit and books), (Guardian 2021, more than a trivial mention with biographical information), in-depth coverage of her: (Washington Post, 1993, also noting a book), additional book reviews: Publishers Weekly, SFGate. Beccaynr (talk) 13:25, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:NAUTHOR. I'm not even sure what the deletion rationale is: too short? BLP3E? NEXIST? Dislike of the page's creator? pburka (talk) 21:11, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Comment NOM (Augment): I originally saw it as WP:SHORT. I just tripped over an almost 20yr old 3-line stub, that told me nothing about the person. Utterly no malice WP:AGF. It didn't belong under WP:Tennis; certainly not notable there...as she is not a tennis player; therefore WP:BLP1E (there is no BLP3E?). If WP:LIT can do something with the article, then great. (Maybe WP:WPWW?) I could not find references for her other than her two books (at least about her being an "author"). I assume there is a lower book # limit? (WP:BK didn't seem to apply?) She did not seem to be linked to any pages other than Martina, Lesbian and Palimony.
- + I do not know the page creator at all...BUT, I often find when a number of articles are created by someone, then deleted...some WP:POV might be involved. Probably at least a WP:NOR issue, using her own books as reference?
- = If this XFD, causes the article to become useful; then my job here is done. Mjquinn_id (talk) 13:55, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- None of those are valid deletion rationales. We don't delete stubs: we expand them. BPL1E isn't applicable: she's notable for three things (a relationship and two books). The creator is irrelevant unless you can show a COI or some sort of bad faith, and our standards for referencing were quite different in 2007. Finally, deletion is not cleanup. pburka (talk) 16:38, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- Merge to Martina Navratilova. Just because there are reliable sources discussing a person, a stand-alone article isn't necessarily warranted (and certainly not obligatory). Malia Obama and Barron Trump are some noteworthy examples from recent history. While Nelson and her books received coverage in Washington Post, Baltimore Sun, Seattle Times, among many other outlets, her notability seems to stem mostly if not entirely from her relationship with Navratilova, which was the subject of her first book (and perhaps impetus for the second). Her relationship with Navratilova might thus be considered an extended single event, per WP:SINGLEEVENT and WP:BLP1E: media coverage and biographical gleanings during and subsequent to the relationship was directly related or incidental to coverage of the relationship. Unlike other partners of Navratilova like Rita Mae Brown or Nancy Lieberman, Nelson does not appear to have independent notability for anything before or afterwards. --Animalparty! (talk) 22:14, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- Comment WP:BLP1E states,
We generally should avoid having an article on a person when each of three conditions is met: 1. If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event.
Sources cover Nelson in the context of multiple events, i.e. her relationship with Navratilova, her palimony lawsuit, her life after the relationship, including her later relationship with Rita Mae Brown, and her two books.2. If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual.
Writing two books indicates she did not remain low-profile.3. If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented.
The events are significant, are mentioned in the Navratilova article, and Nelson's role in the relationship and the palimony suit are substantial and well-documented. So it appears WP:BLP1E does not support a delete/merger. Beccaynr (talk) 22:37, 15 July 2021 (UTC) There is also coverage of the palimony lawsuit that includes biographical information and detail, e.g. Orlando Sentinel, 1992, New York Times, 1992, Associated Press, 1992, and a little more on Nelson's post-relationship, post-lawsuit life: News & Record, 1992. Beccaynr (talk) 05:20, 16 July 2021 (UTC) - Comment. Navratilova is also notable only for "an extended single event", i.e. her 31 year tennis career. pburka (talk) 01:27, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

I don't think that assists are notable enough for a stand-alone article. I couldn't find any in-depth secondary and independant sources. I have read several books about Scientology, and assists are only ever briefly mentioned as a form of spirtual healing/grounding technique and that Scientology advocated its usage after 9/11. I think that information regarding assists could be included as part of an article about Scientology beliefs/practices like other religions (ex. Beliefs and practices of Jehovah's Witnesses), although an article like that for Scientology does not yet exist. Clovermoss (talk) 19:13, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

The only substantial evidence of this place is the passage from the placenames book, which really isn't enough. Fouche is a ridiculously common name in those parts, and searching is dominated by both the name and by a "Fouche Gap Road". I did find a history of the county which has two name drops of the place, neither of which describes it at all. The topos show a single house up until they show a lake which drowned the area late in the last century. Best guess is that this was a 4th class post office at the mills, but I can't prove that either. I just don't think this is notable. Mangoe (talk) 18:32, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Associate prof, seems a bit run of the mill, has an early career award, plus "Machine Learning in the Chemical Sciences & Engineering Award" doesn't seem notable as it's the inaugural award of it. I don't see how this article passes WP:NPROF or WP:GNG. I don't have a feel for if the citations are suitably high to pass on that basis, but I'm doubting it.

Weak keep The Junior Faculty award is peanuts, but the Dreyfus Program award isn't - it comes with ~$100k. H-index in the 20s is generally regarded as okay around here, I believe. Not a celebrity but a scientist who is getting noticed, so I would say this is a weak keep.--Elmidae (talk · contribs) 17:18, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

- Elmidae, I'm hesitant to consider an inaugural, non-wiki-notable prize of the Dreyfus Foundation as an example of (emphasis mine)
certain awards, honors and prizes of notable academic societies, of notable foundations and trusts
. Unlike the other NPROF C2 examples, it is not awarded to an individual specifically in recognition of their prior contributions or scholarly potential but rather is disbursed for a specific research project (the program even statesAwards are not made directly to individuals
). This is substantiated by Dr. Lin's website, which saysOur lab receives the Dreyfus Program for Machine Learning in the Chemical Sciences & Engineering Award! This is a collaborative project with Prof. James Murphy in the Department of Mathematics at Tufts.
which indicates the project is co-headed. To me, the prize is essentially the same as any other private research grant secured by PIs, which would seem to be in a different spirit from the intent of C2. I do think it partially satisfies C1, but just isn't quite at the level for C2. JoelleJay (talk) 16:58, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

- Delete Not a fan of this being written by a COI author. Even with this award, she's still an early career associate prof and this is too soon. Many of the publications in the h-index have 6+ authors so not as indicative, and there is no significant coverage about the subject here at all. Reywas92Talk 18:28, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

- Weak keep per WP:NPROF#1 this is not stellar but passes the bar with an h-index of 24 and 13 papers with > 100 citations. --hroest 18:20, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- NPROF1 says "The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources". Merely looking at raw citations of papers, of which she is one of many authors, does not demonstrate that they have "a significant impact" and is not shown in "sources", which would involve independent media coverage. Reywas92Talk 14:38, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Reywas92: Sources here do not actually imply media coverage (where did you get that idea?) but also citations counters like Google Scholar/Scopus. This is literally clarified in Notes 1.a "(a) The most typical way of satisfying Criterion 1 is to show that the academic has been an author of highly cited academic work – either several extremely highly cited scholarly publications or a substantial number of scholarly publications with significant citation rates." So using citation counters is the most typical way to satisfy criterion 1. I agree that her citations and h-index are not extraordinary, but they pass the bar for someone who has had a "significant impact" on their field. --hroest 17:12, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- Please read the rest of the guideline. "Citation measures such as the h-index, g-index, etc., are of limited usefulness in evaluating whether Criterion 1 is satisfied. They should be approached with caution because their validity is not, at present, completely accepted, and they may depend substantially on the citation database used. They are also discipline-dependent; some disciplines have higher average citation rates than others." This does not satisfy criterion 1. There really needs to be more substantive independent coverage with some depth beyond merely counting citations, including indicating what the "significant impact in their scholarly discipline" actually is. Reywas92Talk 17:55, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, citation metrics need to be interpreted within their context of the database and discipline of the subject.That is exactly what I (and others) here are doing. You are setting standards that are way higher than what WP:NPROF requires and what is required in other AfD discussion. You are making very strong leaps from what is written in NPROF, "Approaching with caution" does not equal "does not satisfy criterion 1". Nowhere in WP:NPROF does it require "substantive independent coverage with some depth", on the contrary it is quite clear that citations metrics or one (of multiple) ways to satisfy criterion 1 and show substantial impact in the field. --hroest 20:39, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- Reywas92, Hannes Röst is correct that independent coverage is not necessary for NPROF; unlike practically every other SNG (like NSPORT), where meeting the criteria presumes notability but GNG ultimately must be demonstrated, NPROF operates completely outside of GNG requirements. I do think identifying what her "significant impact" is would be beneficial for sussing out what is DUE in the article, but isn't necessary for notability discussions unless other criteria aren't applicable. JoelleJay (talk) 16:20, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
- Well I don't think it's applicable to say "Her articles have a number of citations, screw substantive sources." I understand NPROF works a bit differently, but it's not adequate to say there is "a significant impact in their scholarly discipline" merely on low-quality metrics without evidence of independent assertion that not only are these publications impactful, but that this junior faculty author in particular has had significant impact. It's absurd that this SNG would go from multiple sources of substance to zero sources of anything. Reywas92Talk 16:32, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

- It should be noted that she's a chemist and papers in chemistry have a little over half the impact factor of other biomed sciences; in particular she is working in computational chemistry, which generally has fewer authors per papers: most of her papers have one to three coauthors. I tend to think the baseline you are using for comparison is somewhat too high for her field. — Charles Stewart (talk) 11:45, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
- Chalst, thanks for the input! Are you saying she has a couple biomed papers with many coauthors who mainly publish in biomed rather than chemistry, and they are therefore inflating the coauthor metrics? I did try to exclude people who were in very different fields from the analysis (for example, there were a ton of collaborators of her coauthor Martin Zanni that published in "youth education" rather than chem, and several who focused on SWNTs which are a different-enough topic from vibrational spectra of water and spectroscopic examination of protein folding that I also filtered them out), but I potentially missed some. On the other hand, her having biomed papers and coauthors would certainly elevate her own citation metrics above those of her pure-computational chem peers, so it might not be appropriate to remove her direct coauthors in those disciplines either.

- Keep - on a formal reading of NPROF, I could justify a weak keep separately on either the award of a new research achievement prize from a reasonably prestigious foundation, per Elmidae, or arguing her research output falls this side of the publication output divide, per Hannes Röst. While I can see the delete case, its a pretty abstract deletionist defence of the NPROF standard not backed by any concrete problems with the article. Generally, I think these arguments are insensitive to the reasons why NPROF is the SNG that is definitely more relaxed than GNG: articles that pass NPROF but not GNG tend to be encyclopedic, verifiable, lack issues, and often make good merge targets for ATD outcomes of borderline science concepts. I don't find the delete rationale compelling, and the article as it stands is of decent quality. — Charles Stewart (talk) 12:04, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

DeleteWeak Keep. This version of the article wasn’t created by a sock, and has more recent sources than the previous versions, but the most recent sources seem to be promotion for the subject and Turkish television in general. POLITANVM talk 15:34, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Are you claiming that all entertainment news coverage counts as promotional? What determines if something is promotional or not? The articles are months apart and have separate interviews with the subject in question. SilverserenC 16:30, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- No, that’s not quite what I mean. I’m not very familiar with Turkish media, but many of the English Wikipedia articles for the news sources cited in this article note that they have been accused of functioning as propaganda for the Turkish government. And since most of the citations here are about how great it is that Al Suleiman is helping export Turkish culture, then these might not be independent sources for this subject. I can see the case for notability given the number of sources over time, but looking at the sources again, I see some other issues that altogether don’t seem to be truly independent or reliable:
- Shehab News Agency: There’s no author listed for the article
- TRTWorld: No author listed. Concerns about independence noted at TRT World. Other sources note that Suleiman does translations for TRT, so this isn’t independent.
- Isktiklal: No author listed.
- The English Wikipedia article for Yeni Şafak doesn’t lend credibility to this source.
- I’m not familiar with Draft:Diriliş Postası, so I’m not certain if it’s considered reliable. If it is, then this source seems to contribute to NBIO
- Aksam seems okay for NBIO, but as an interview with very little author commentary, it’s mostly a primary source.
- Anadolu Agency is state run, so it’s not independent on the topic of exporting Turkish culture.
- Syria.tv doesn’t list an author
- Daily Sabah is criticized as a propaganda outlet for the Turkish government, so it isn’t independent. The article has no listed author.
- Orient News is repeating reporting from other sources, but I’m not familiar with them.
- If Diriliş Postası and Akşam are considered reliable, independent and secondary, then I would change my vote to Week Keep. Even those two sources are written like press releases. POLITANVM talk 17:56, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Most non-English news sources don't include authors (as international news sources like the Associated Press often do not). That's not really an example of reliability or not of a source. And being state run is only an issue of concern if the information it was being used for was political and governmental in nature. I don't think the entertainment news section counts in that regard? SilverserenC 18:00, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- That makes sense for the non-author sources. For the state-run/affiliated sources, I might consider the them as a notability indicator if it’s a topic they’d have no interest in, but these articles are explicitly to promote this journalist and how he’s helping bring Turkish culture to the world. I’d be similarly skeptical about Voice of America writing effusive articles about an otherwise unknown American figure.
- I’ll change my vote to Week Keep, since there are an abundance of sources that aren’t explicitly labeled as third-party contributions, but I am still skeptical that they are completely independent of Suleiman, given the promotional tone of every article about him and his long-term attempts to get a Wikipedia article.
- And so it’s clear, it’s obvious you made this article in good faith and with no conflict of interest. This AfD is a great example of how bad faith editors, edit warring and sockpuppets get in the way of creating an encyclopedia. POLITANVM talk 18:56, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

- And what exactly is the conflict of interest here? I don't have one and I made the article from scratch, so it has nothing to do with the sockpuppet accounts. SilverserenC 18:54, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- I don't want to throw accusations, but the way you created this article by changing the title in order to bypass an active protection from creation without any prior discussions is shady. ×°˜`°×ηαη¢у×°˜`°× 19:04, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- I don’t think it’s helpful to question Silverseren’s intent at this AfD, when it’s perfectly believable that a long-term contributor to Wikipedia would take it upon themselves to create an encyclopedic version of an article that had previously been deleted repeatedly because of sockpuppetry. If the main issue before was CoI, sockpuppetry, and lack of demonstrated notability, these issues are solved a non-CoI editor creating a more NPOV article with sources believed in good-faith. A previous AfD where the reason was “created by blocked user” isn’t very relevant here.
- I’m similarly skeptical about the independence of most of the sources given the long history with this article and the subject, but let’s discuss the sources, not the editors. POLITANVM talk 19:32, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep I re-created the article because I consider the subject notable. I am not connected to the sockpuppetteer (and I consider them rather annoying in their constant account making and messaging to people), but regardless of their actions in the past that made the topic SALTed, I consider it an actual notable biographical subject that was unfortunately ruined by a POV-pushing sock user. Therefore I redid the article from scratch, looking up sources on my own and writing it completely from nothing. The sources spread out over a year of time are specifically about the subject and his translation activities. Here's some examples from the current article:
- "Türk dizilerini Arap ülkelerine sevdiren adam Ali Al Suleiman kimdir?" [Who is Ali Al Suleiman, the man who made Turkish TV series popular with Arab countries?]. İstiklal (in Turkish). July 23, 2020.
- Ozturk, Ilker Nuri (September 6, 2020). "Türkiye ortak noktamız" [Turkey is our common point]. Yeni Şafak (in Turkish).
- Aksu, Sümeyye (February 15, 2021). "Türk kültürünün tanınması ve dilin yayılmasında Türk dizileri köprü görevi görüyor" [Turkish TV series act as a bridge in the recognition of Turkish culture and the spread of the language]. Diriliş Postası (in Turkish).
- Tanir, Ipek (November 28, 2020). "'Türk kültürüne yabancılık çekmiyorum'" ['I am not alien to Turkish culture']. Akşam (in Turkish).
- This coverage is entirely about the subject and includes separate quotes and other subject matter, showing they are independent interviews. I'm not sure how this couldn't meet WP:GNG requirements. People above are claiming promotion, when they are separate pieces of coverage months apart and I am certainly not promoting anything. SilverserenC 16:26, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
Comment: Silver seren, please see the sources analysis on trwiki. You'll found that all of sources you mentioned above (1+2+7+8), confirmed as "unreliable" by trwiki users. Best --Alaa :)..! 16:32, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- I've seen it. It's a pretty bad analysis, as it gives no evidence for its claims. It just says "isn't clear". Also, interviews are allowed for notability of a subject, especially if the article that includes the interview has biographical information on the subject. Kinda weird those aren't allowed on TrWiki. SilverserenC 16:46, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) @Silver seren: Regardless of your personal views on the notability of the subject, bypassing the salting was not the best move. For example, you could have created the article first as a draft and explained about the salting on the Talk page of the draft. Then, you could have asked other editors to address the notability issue. If other experienced editors agreed with you, you could then have asked permission from the salting administrator to move the draft to article space. By doing it your way, you have actually made the article less likely to be kept because of its history.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:43, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- The administrator I was dealing with had no interest in draftifying it at all and refused to work with me whatsoever. My interactions with them were less than helpful. So I remade it from scratch (as a draft) on my own. And then moved it once I was done. SilverserenC 16:46, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- They didn't refuse to work with you; they just refused to do what you wanted. You were also told the same thing there about your sources that you were told here by Alaa--Bbb23 (talk) 16:57, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- And the claim made about the sources in both instances don't stand up to scrutiny, as I noted above. The actual news articles were all dismissed on TrWiki as interviews, which is not an unreliable source indicator here (and it is perplexing that it is there). And, yes, the administrator refused to move a draft to userspace, making claims about banned users, despite the fact that it is directly in guideline that one is allowed to take over edits of banned users and support their inclusion oneself.

- here’s one Mccapra (talk) 19:13, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Mccapra: I don't see any AfD mentioned by the nominator in their nominating message. The one you mentioned is the only I'm aware of; it's been noted by others. It cannot be used for G4 as there was no community consensus. Before that could happen, the article was speedy deleted per G5 as it had been created by a sock. Although it wouldn't change the rule, I did take a look at the article at that time and compared it to the current article. There are many similarities, but there has been some updating by Silver seren. As for other AfDs, someone would have to dig them up; we can't assume they exist.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:02, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- ok I thought the red text article title in the nomination was a previous AfD but apparently it wasn’t. An article was created with the exact same title as the current article on 12 June 2021 and then deleted. However it seems that wasn’t deleted at AfD as I’d mistakenly thought but under one of the speedy criteria. So the present article is the third version in one year but there isn’t a previous AfD consensus. Mccapra (talk) 02:06, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

- So nothing about notability or anything that AfD is actually meant to be about. I hope the closer completely disregards your vote here. SilverserenC 18:00, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- As @Mccapra: pointed out in the AfD he mentioned, those articles smell like mere PR. The subject religiously keeps track of all the articles mentioning him, which leads me to believe that the coverage is just as inorganic as the social media followers numbers. It's impossible for me to assume good faith in this situation, sorry - it's gone on for too long. ×°˜`°×ηαη¢у×°˜`°× 19:17, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Comment @Silver seren: when attempting to create this page, didn't it occur to you that Ali Al Suleiman is protected from creation? Why did you silently proceed anyway, bypassing the block with no prior discussion? ×°˜`°×ηαη¢у×°˜`°× 18:38, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- All the previous discussions were about a sockpuppetter repeatedly recreating an article and using things like google links and other non-reliable sources to make a puffery filled article. I looked at the actual news sources available, considered it notable, and made a draft from scratch using only those news sources and only on direct biographical information. The only "puffery" I allowed to be included was the one line about social media numbers, since several of the sources mentioned that. SilverserenC 18:54, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- You do realize those social media numbers are most likely not organic, considering the abysmal engagement? Plus, those sources you used, have widely been exposed as unreliable by Turkish Wikipedia users. ×°˜`°×ηαη¢у×°˜`°× 19:01, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- It's not really our business on whether they're organic or not? And the sources were most definitely not. The list linked to before just had a bunch of statements that interviews weren't reliable and that they couldn't confirm on others. That didn't expose anything at all. SilverserenC 19:51, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete So here we have a page that has a title that does not conform to MoS because an editor has chosen to bypass the protected (by me)correct title at Ali Al Suleiman. Normally I'd block an editor who did this, but I've been persuaded that the editor concerned isn't a sock and the disruptive behaviour probably doesn't quite merit a block. Nevertheless, I don't know why we are wasting time on this serial self-promoter and sock master. He's not notable, and shouldn't be rewarded with an article here Jimfbleak - talk to me? 08:11, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - I must report that the subject has created yet another sockpuppet and has been desperately canvassing. ×°˜`°×ηαη¢у×°˜`°× 09:27, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Confirmed, I was canvassed to this discussion by Football lover 2020. I recuse myself of any further comment. Polyamorph (talk) 10:15, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete I wholeheartedly believe Silverseren re-created the article in good faith, considering how he found out about in the first place (I'm talk page stalker, sorry :d). However, the sources just seem not independent and/or significant to me. A relatively inexperienced me said this a year ago, and now I agree even more with it. ~StyyxieTalk? ^-^ 11:32, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- So, multiple entire articles on the subject, written months apart, and with separate interview questions and answers aren't independent or significant? Can you elaborate on that? SilverserenC 16:59, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- I'd be more than happy.
- First of all, several months apart? All of them are from Summer 2020. This regular translator suddenly became the biggest talking point out of nowhere?
- Interviews are just an echo of what a person says and therefore are considered primary sources/non-independent material.
- Other Turkish sources (some not in the article) include the keyword "... kimdir" in their title, which means "Who is ..." General consensus is that these sources, regardless of the publisher, are unreliable and/or not independent. These are not written by the publisher themselves but are rather copied from somewhere else. A major website like Hürriyet takes its "Who is [random football refree]" text from the Turkish Wikipedia. This is just an example, texts may be taken from anywhere, including the person itself (In return for some $$$). Heaven knows where these come from. You can ask on the Turkish village pump if "Kimdir" sources contribute to notability, and everyone with slight AfD experience will say no. This is just how the lazy and greedy Turkish media works. Editors have to have this in their mind when using them.
- I do not blame you for not knowing the things above, but I want this article deleted because the subject is not notable, not because of this stupid socking history. ~StyyxieTalk? ^-^ 18:32, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Except these sources aren't from July and don't use "Kimdir":
- Ozturk, Ilker Nuri (September 6, 2020). "Türkiye ortak noktamız" [Turkey is our common point]. Yeni Şafak (in Turkish).
- Aksu, Sümeyye (February 15, 2021). "Türk kültürünün tanınması ve dilin yayılmasında Türk dizileri köprü görevi görüyor" [Turkish TV series act as a bridge in the recognition of Turkish culture and the spread of the language]. Diriliş Postası (in Turkish).
- Tanir, Ipek (November 28, 2020). "'Türk kültürüne yabancılık çekmiyorum'" ['I am not alien to Turkish culture']. Akşam (in Turkish).
- So where do these fit into all that? Thank you for informing me, by the way. I am basically done with this AfD, but I do want to know about this sort of thing for the future, if I encounter Turkish sources again. SilverserenC 19:49, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Except these sources aren't from July and don't use "Kimdir":
- I'd be more than happy.
- Delete and salt along with the other salted targets. Long-term self-promoting pest, subject clearly doesn't meet WP:BIO; the few articles from news sources appear to be all from the same PR release. OhNoitsJamie Talk 13:10, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- And what PR release is that? Especially considering the articles are months apart and many are interviews with different questions and responses from the subject? You can't just claim it's all PR without actual evidence for that. SilverserenC 16:59, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I think I am willing to give up at this point, however. I still consider the subject notable and the coverage significant. But the socker has made this impossible to deal with. If he had just shut up the moment I made a statement on the original article talk page that I would clean it up and he had left, never made another account, and stopped bothering everyone, maybe this would be a better discussion. But, yeah, he ruined it. It just really annoys me though, because POV sockpuppetters like this make it incredibly difficult to write articles on actually notable people that they keep pushing. Since I don't think permanent SALTing is a good method at all, because it means that any future coverage showcasing notability even more strongly is that much more difficult to actually present. But, yeah, I give up. I wish he had shut up and gone away. Oh well. I wash my hands of this. SilverserenC 17:04, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

- Delete and salt It's a problem when all we have to go on is WP:INTERVIEWS. Even if they're in reliable publications, they're largely primary rather than secondary, so don't contribute to notability claims. Girth Summit (blether) 06:24, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

- Delete and salt. The type of citations included in the article do not appear to meet WP:GNG. I will point out that "salting" does not prohibit article creation in the future, just means that there will be oversight if it is does created. Onel5969 TT me 14:13, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

Parasol Records (& their associated imprints) was/is an important proponent of ‘90s - ‘00s power pop and indie pop, having released two album efforts by the article subject as well as many seminal bands of that genre - Velvet Crush, Soundtrack of Our Lives, Jack Logan, Bettie Serveert, etc. See - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasol_Records?wprov=sfti1 — Preceding unsigned comment added by ModLang1128 (talk • contribs) 21:15, 6 July 2021 (UTC)Added additional research-info and detailed references to improve article and further reinforce subject’s notability. In addition to article subject’s musical work (having multiple album releases issued in subject’s name by notable independent labels, Parasol - US & Nippon Crown - Japan), subject is also a journalist. With numerous educational articles and columns written by subject having been published by several notable, commercial publications (Guitar World, Songwriter’s Market, etc.) allowing subject to meet Wiki standards/consensus re: journalistic notability. Additionally, as a producer, subject has worked in the television field, having compositions used by major television networks (see CW Network, “Vampire Diaries” reference for example) further meeting Wiki musician notability standards under “Criteria for musicians and ensembles” citation #10. Lastly, subject’s television audio engineering work earned him a 2021 Emmy nomination (see article citation #19) which further supports subject’s notability as cited in “Wikipedia: Notability (awards and medals)” as well as in “Criteria for musicians and ensembles” citation #8. For these reasons above, I would respectfully ask that the “marked for deletion” notice be removed from this article. Note - I have no affiliation with subject as inferred above (just a fan, author & historian of the power pop genre). — ModLang1128 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

(Oppose/Keep) Citations/references, while not entirely impeccable, do demonstrate a certain level of notability in the aggregate, given multiple pursuits (music, journalism, Emmy nomination). It can be argued that notability requirements have been fulfilled, as a number of discreet criteria benchmarks have been met. Article also does not appear to be libelous in any way. Albums released by two independent labels with sizable rosters (see label Wikis) that appear confirmed and reviewed by reputable, independent, secondary source (AllMusic Guide citations) indicates professional notability as musical artist WP: MUSICBIO”/#5. As writer, appears to have numerous pieces published by known commercial entities (citing Guitar World author page and others) meeting suggested journalism notability standards [“Wikipedia:Notability (journalists)”/#1]. Emmy award nomination (as cited via 3rd party web reference) for TV work also indicates notable status WP: ANYBIO”/#1.

This page is nothing but a long list of minutae about one category of one music competition. There are no similar pages (for the other 15 competitions held) or, for example, the other categories of the 2011 event (violin, cello, and voice). Further, the minute and expansive specificity of the detail (the contents lists over 185 items for example) means it is only of interest to a very narrow audience. Finally, once the header links (which are deprecated) and the in-line external links (also deprecated) are removed, the remainder is just an unreferenced and unverified mass of dot point details (with no prose whatsoever after the lead).

- Keep Surely it doesn't fail every guideline? ;-) Joking aside, a local party in a small Swedish municipality is unlikely to meet WP:ORGCRIT, but I think that the criteria are met here. The current sourcing is abysmal, but the sv.wiki article includes several sources: this is a regional newspaper, so wouldn't work on its own, this however is an in-depth article in Dagens Nyheter and this is is from Sveriges Radio. Looking for other sources, I find this from (a local division of) Sveriges Television and this which is fairly in-depth, from Östersunds-Posten, also a regional newspaper but slightly weightier than the first source I linked. Taken together, I think these sources show that WP:ORGCRIT is met, especially since they were published at different times, the earliest in 2006 and the last in 2014, so it is not a case of brief and ephemeral interest. I will undertake to add these sources and develop the article based on them, provided it survives the AfD. --bonadea contributions talk 11:04, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Hej Bonadea, am in heated agreement and thanks for highlighting some relevant sources. Just to make a minor clarification, beyond the GNG, I think WP:NONPROFIT is the more appropriate criteria here, rather than ORGCRIT, as the latter's criteria are designed to deal with the problems associated with promotional material of for-profit enterprises:
These criteria, generally, follow the general notability guideline with a stronger emphasis on quality of the sources to prevent gaming of the rules by marketing and public relations professionals.

A barangay article that resembles more of a directory or listing of establishments and landmarks than a real encyclopedic article. Such type of Philippines-related articles have been point of contention for the past decade, with latest discussion at Wikipedia talk:Tambayan Philippines/Archive47#Are barangays notable? (can we please have a consensus now?) and the then-active Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tarusan. Consensus remains that only barangays that are really notable by reliable sources are considered as worthy to have Wikipedia articles.
For this barangay, it contains basic info like statistics, barangay captain, and natural description like geographical location. But most of it is essentially a directory, and this violates WP:NOTDIRECTORY rule. It does contain some sources, but these do not mainly talk about the barangay itself and are mainly about the landmarks that are listed here, thus all are not reliable. This article, therefore, should not benefit from WP:GEOLAND and must be nuked. JWilz12345 (Talk|Contrib's.) 09:08, 6 July 2021 (UTC)

Not notable. Briefly mentioned in a MathWorld article and included in OEIS, which in my view do not amount to significant coverage. Also mentioned on the website PrimePages. See also the arguments made in the 2009 AFD (no consensus). Adumbrativus (talk) 09:05, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related page because it is similar both in subject matter and in the sources found:
- Comment The OEIS entries for both sequences call them "easy" and don't say "nice" [13][14]; per the meanings of the keywords, it seems like these particular OEIS entries aren't making a case for significance. XOR'easter (talk) 15:37, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete both in the absence of published mathematical research on these topics. MathSciNet lists nothing on this topic. Google Scholar lists a few but they appear to mostly mention the topic in-passing and be unpublished or in low-quality or predatory journals. My comment from the last AfD still seems relevant. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:06, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Weak keep. Provided sources are weak and the names are odd, but I am impressed by the fact that both topics have about 10 articles each in other language entities of Wikipedia, some even considerably longer than the English ones. While the other entities have different guidelines, the core principles and goals (to document the past and present knowledge of the world in a neutral and accessible way) are the same, so I wonder if all those contributors to these articles have been misled into thinking this would be important enough to spend considerable amounts of their time to document these numbers in this encyclopedia. Obviously, they must have found it worth the inclusion. Yeah, other stuff exists, but at least for me, non-mainstream topics are often the most interesting ones to read and think about - often enough leading to new insights and ideas. Ideally, someone would bring by a more substantial source. But for as long as the math "as is" is correct and the article does not contain incorrect statements, I would rather have one weak article on a borderline topic too much included then some information (possibly interesting to some and boring to others) missing in this encyclopedia. Perhaps, there is also some value in the topic and article serving as a link between other (more notable) topics, thereby helping to provide a richer context or to ease navigation between other topics. People might run into these terms and wonder what they are, and even if the Wikipedia article would tell them that these numbers are not very important for most people, this is already an answer - better than having nothing on the topic at all and leaving readers puzzling. Therefore, I would give this the benefit of doubt. If it can't be kept, perhaps it can be merged into other more general articles. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 21:49, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete both. Both are vanity pages about recreational mathematics. These numbers haven't even been subject of a serious paper! Which wouldn't be sufficient for notability. What we have here is very thin gruel. It seems that this guy came up with these formulas to search for large primes, failed to find anything, and that's it. Tercer (talk) 08:14, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - per the reasoning of PrimeHunter in the last AfD, this does not clear the neologism bar for me. — Charles Stewart (talk) 09:18, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Delete both Random bits of recreational mathematics that never even made it big in recreational-mathematics circles are probably not harmful to have around Wikipedia, but they're not really what this project is about, either. At the moment, I doubt they rise to the level of warranting mention in another article, and we'd need to reach that standard before we consider giving them articles of their own.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Stats page that was a contested PROD last year but no rationale was provided. I still don't see how this meets WP:GNG. It is cited entirely to blogs and a now-dead stats website. For reference, the coverage cited was like this for each match, so no significant analysis or even a basic match report, just stats. I chose two matches at random to see if I could find a match report but was unsuccessful. For Kuantan v Sabah, I found Sofascore and Besoccer. For Perlis v Sabah, I found the same sources as above again and also Live Result and Soccerway.
This is basic, bare minimum stats coverage that any football game receives and is not at all indicative of significant coverage which is required to address the topic directly and in significant detail. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 08:52, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

- Comment They definitely don't pass WP:NPOL, but they may pass WP:GNG. I found lots of news hits, although mostly not focused on Sinani, e.g. this Balkan Insight article (1). A little more in this Russian article in Danas (2). I'm concerned that most of their coverage is in non-English sources: Mccapra, what non-English sources did you look at during WP:BEFORE? Anything useful? Suriname0 (talk) 22:12, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I found this which is a hyper-local news outlet item citing an MP’s Facebook profile saying that he and Sinani hosted a delegation from Kosovo. Other news items from the same source are this announcing that she and her rival candidate both got COVID and this and this which I think are reasonably in-depth coverage of her political perspectives and plans, though again they are hyperlocal.
- This piece in Danas is significant because it’s in a national daily, but it’s an interview.
- This records the fact that she was elected. I’m not sure what the status of the site is but it appears to me to be a piece of local press.
- This does look like a piece of extended coverage of her views.
- This I can’t get to translate for some reason but it looks like an announcement of her election win, not in-depth coverage. That’s all I found. Mccapra (talk) 02:25, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
- Merge and Redirect to Preševo#Politics. So to summarize, we have two substantive coverages in a national daily (but one's an interview) and English-language coverage of her views on one issue, plus a smattering of WP:ROTM coverage around her election. To me, that's right on the edge of WP:GNG, so I could be easily convinced to switch to Keep if an additional source focused on Sinani was identified. Otherwise, it looks to me like there's no problem with putting info about Sinani into the Presevo article, beefing up the elections section with a paragraph on Sinani's election and views (based on the sources identified above).

Delete, with no prejudice against re-creation of the article subject as such.I think "Earth in science fiction" could be a potential article, quoting sources talking about how it has been generally portrayed and common themes, if such are to be found. There are no such sources quoted. Most of the general content is unsourced, or refers to specific depictions.

- Comment. While the current article is WP:OR coupled with an indiscrimiante list, and probably qualifies for WP:TNT, I did find a source for the general analysis, The Greenwood Encyclopedia of Science Fiction and Fantasy (Gary Westfahl). It has two and half pages about Earth (and a dedicated entry to it), at [15] (p.226-228). Sadly there is no entry in The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction, The Mammoth Encyclopedia of Science Fiction (George Mann), Encyclopedia Of Science Fiction (Don D'Ammassa), 'The New Encyclopedia of Science Fiction (Jame E. Gunn), and The Encyclopedia of Fantasy (Clute and Grant). Anyway, we have one source but GNG requires multiple; that said it is an encyclopedia, so it's probably is enough? Sadly I can't see page 228, only 226-227, so I am hampered in my ability to rescue this using even this one source :( Ping User:Daranios, User:Toughpigs. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:58, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- That entry in the Greenwood encyclopedia (judging by 227-228) is pretty much the sort of thing I expected/hoped to find to support notability. The thing is, WP:GNG specifies secondary sources as key for notability. Encyclopedias are tertiary. There's no explanation in WP:GNG as to why tertiary would not count towards notability and it doesn't make immediate sense to me. Of course, it's only one source, and that isn't really enough. But would two or more encyclopedia entries be OK? Also, is it worth looking for sources that cite that entry in Greenwood? OsFish (talk) 09:10, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- @OsFish In my experience, in practice, tertiary sources are often sufficient for establishing notability - and this is something worth discussing at WT:GNG. In particular, coverage in specialized encyclopedias like the ones I mentioned above is never, in my experience, disputed as insufficient, even if it is all we have.

- Comment - possible second source Science Fact and Science Fiction: An Encyclopedia By Brian Stableford (2006, Taylor & Francis, ISBN 9781135923747) has an entry on Earth. But I can't see it from Google books. Is there anywhere we can appeal for people who might have it? OsFish (talk) 09:31, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Great finds Piotrus (though it's a shame we cannot see the last page and what sources possibly are used there) and OsFish! I think together the establish notablity. Here is a version of Science Fact and Science Fiction where (I hope every)one can view the article about Earth. It's a good two pages of small print (p. 137-139). About half of that contains historical facts and old examples where there is no clear disctinction between science fiction and philosophical speculation about scientific issues. The other half fits to our topic. Both sources support some parts of the common themes as well as more prominent examples like The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, showing that the current content, while in need of trimming and sourcing, is not without worth. They also have nice potential additions not yet covered like the Hollow Earth concept, or "A planet is too large, and its lifetime too long, to be comfortably accommodated within fiction as a topic in its own right, although that has not prevented the production of such panoramic overviews of Earth as those contained in...". And then there are more secondary sources that deal with smaller aspects of the topic, like Sith, Slayers, Stargates & Cyborgs, which talks about the alien invasion and anthropocentric aspects, or Heroes, Monsters and Values: Science Fiction Films of the 1970s, which discusses the recurring trope of an alien visiting Earth as a messiah figure.

I haven't found the in-depth sources needed to satisfy GNG and support a standalone article. As an alternative to deletion, per our policy WP:ATD, I suggest redirecting to the short Pastimes section in the Perl article, or alternatively, to Randal L. Schwartz, who popularized the practice. --

The newspapers (and the club) thought they were getting the Scotland player, but they weren't. The English National Football Archive (paywalled site) has this note on his page:
Burnley were duped into registering an imposter claiming to be William Lambie, the former Queen`s Park, Ardwick and Scotland player, never having seen him play before his League debut. As soon as that started it was clear that he was not that player. He left the field a few minutes into the second half, and was immediately released. He has been called "William Lambie" here as his correct identity has not been discovered.
- I'd suggest adding a small section to William Lambie, and creating a redirect William Lambie (Burnley footballer) that links to it.

The article is about an Ahir clan and is not suitable for existence as a seperate article on Wikipedia. Few content which can be seen here can be included somewhere in Yadav or Ahir. Heba Aisha (talk) 00:08, 6 July 2021 (UTC)

Along with their twin, Sasha Komarova, there is not enough in-depth coverage to show that they pass WP:GNG. The only decent piece is the Russian Vogue piece, which is about both of them, which I guess counts for 1/2 an in-depth article each. I will be nominating the other twin as well, but do not feel bundling them together is warranted. Fails WP:GNG. Onel5969 TT me 16:07, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

- Delete the notablity guidelines for models are not met.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:59, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Comment. There is some coverage as an intersex model [19], [20] - apparently in Vogue (magazine), and she also appears in the List of Numéro Russia cover models. There are a few more sources in Russian. Looks like a non-notable or borderline notability to me, with very little of substantial coverage. My very best wishes (talk) 02:24, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
