- Comment, I think this is a bit of an unfortunate one since I would agree that it fails WP:NFOOTBALL as things currently stand given that playing for Inverness Caledonian Thistle F.C. in what was then the Third Division does not meet the criteria set out there. However Inverness Caledonian Thistle are now a notable club having won the Scottish Cup a major national competition and I do feel that Alan Hercher played an important part in their history as a) an original member of the club when it was formed in 1994 b) playing and scoring in the club's first ever league match (which was in itself notable as the first ever Scottish league match played in the Highlands) c) being their first captain. Technically it is probably correct to delete it as the rules stand, and I fully respect the arguments made by other users, but I do think it is a shame is it could easily be argued he played a notable part in the history of a major football club. Dunarc (talk) 22:49, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- @Dunarc: He was Caley's first captain - would there be anything written about him contemporaneously with his playing career? Right now the article is a tweet, a facebook post, and two obits, which isn't enough for WP:GNG, but there have been a couple keep !voters in both AfDs and I'm curious if he was notable during his career. SportingFlyer T·C 08:12, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

Subject does not qualify for an article under WP:ACTOR, and the references provided here either lack independence from the subject (IMDb, Pintrest), are promotional (PRweb), or are not about the subject. A Google News search turns up 40 hits, most of these related to his résumé, are other Pintrest/ social media hits, or are from photo shoots he appeared in. The WP:INTERVIEWS I found came from sources with no established reporting reputation. I did not find any substantive discussion in reliable independent published sources. Being related to Priscilla Presley does not qualify him as notable. A loose necktie (talk) 23:26, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

Kash Hovey is an award-winning actor and producer with a significant amount of articles and interviews to support his Wikipedia article. He has won several awards for his performances in films including As In Kevin which won him a Best Supporting Comedy Actor Award at the LA Live Film Festival and Plastic Daydream with celebrity fitness instructor Shari Belafonte. Plastic Daydream was directed by Kathy Kolla who has a live Wikipedia page with very similar articles. He can be seen in a new role, Adam, in upcoming feature film Undateable John which was developed by Joan Jett and also features Shannen Doherty. All three mentioned films have significant press coverage and awards that support Hovey's credibility as an actor and producer. His familial relations were mentioned upon personal request, not to make him appear more credible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hannahandos1 (talk • contribs) 23:51, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- Unless the "LA Live Film Festival" actually means the LA Film Festival (which I am guessing it does not) then the festival itself has no Wikpedia article and likely lacks enough notability of its own to use the winning of an award from them as a qualification for notability. Further, being in an upcoming notable film does not make an actor notable. Even being in that film wouldn't automatically make him notable. And coverage of a film does not mean coverage of an actor in that film. Lastly, who placed the request for the mention of the familial relations and was anyone paid for this? If so, the author needs to make a declaration of conflict of interest on their user page and on the talk page of the article itself. A loose necktie (talk)
- Delete Source do not indicate Hovey passes WP:GNG. None of the roles he has had or the awards he has received are major enough to meet any inclusionary standard. Best, GPL93 (talk) 19:00, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete GPL93 said everything I wanted to here, awards not being big enough or the lack of significance of the roles (so WP:NACTOR is not met). Currently, the coverage of his is either in interviews (WP:PRIMARY), blogs/forums or in passing, which makes him fail WP:GNG/WP:BIO. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 15:45, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - bit player who does not meet WP:NACTOR - the article is spin to make him sound notable, for example the article says he had a role in the film Rebound, but fails to mention that his role was so small it was uncredited - and he appeared in a minor supporting role in only one of the 115 episodes of Unusual Suspects - most of the article references are WP:REFBOMBING to WP:MASK lack of notability - the article is little more than promotional hype - therefore, delete - Epinoia (talk) 22:06, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

Empty bio of a young, perfectly ordinary beat reporter. No evidence of major stories broken or covered, no journalism prizes, or a career, even, as she's apparently in her mid-twenties. Calton | Talk 22:38, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. No credible claim of notability. The Politico source has a trivial mention of her and it would be difficult to believe that her wedding announcement in the NYT was independent of her being an NYT employee. Subject is basically a cub reporter, for whom this article is TOOSOON. Agricola44 (talk) 14:47, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I started this article. The subject of this article passes WP:GNG for being the subject of articles for multiple events. When a person repeatedly enters the media as the subject of journalism for different reasons over a period of time then they merit a Wikipedia article. I restored previously deleted citations. Blue Rasberry (talk) 16:12, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- This person is part of 5 media narratives, each of which appear in multiple third party sources:
- journalism appointment noteworthy enough to be reported in other non-press release news stories, including a history of the position
- marriage were the narrative is always that she married into Bain & Company
- LA Times conflict with Disney and reporting the media leak and subsequent reorganization
- this person and her writing critiqued on expertise on United States foreign policy for Central America
- this person publishing lobbyist statements but neglecting to note the affiliation
- Any one of these is an argument for passing WP:GNG. Will anyone dispute that? Blue Rasberry (talk) 05:39, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
- The first bit is routine run-of-the-mill hiring details. All of the rest are a bunch of minor bits cobbled together in a rather clumsy attempt at coatracking, to build an attack page on a journalist doing her job. --Calton | Talk 22:05, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete a general beat reporter -- even one employed by a large media outlet -- does not typically meet the criteria for notability pursuant to WP:JOURNALIST.

- Delete as a non-notable person failing WP:GNG, specifically WP:BIO and WP:ACADEMIC, with no reliable independent in-depth sources. Article was moved to mainspace without full AfC procedure. Almost all sources with content in the article are short profiles, not independent or not about the subject. The closest ones are the two BuisnessLine articles, but neither is about the subject. The awards received appear to be minor and so not enough for ACADEMIC. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 08:44, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- I looked through sources added after the start of the AfD, and none of them are about the subject, but rather various related topics. In three of them the person themselves is giving commentary, making the source primary for those parts. In fourth, it's less than a paragraph of a passing mention. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 21:17, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
- And the 5 more sources added since are all similarly where the subject has themselves said something about a related project, but there is no focus or in-depth information about the subject themselves. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 08:21, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Article relies heavily on primary sources, and verges on the promotional. Awards of any sort are a dime a dozen in academica; they need to be significant awards to count towards notability. I don't see evidence that this individual meets either WP:GNG or WP:PROF. Vanamonde (Talk) 15:30, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete, mostly per nom and the comments of Hellknowz and Vanamonde93 above. I am somewhat less inclined to dismiss academic awards outright but several of the awards listed are for young researchers, and don't contribute to WP:PROF notability, while others don's look particularly significant. Citability here is pretty low, especially for the high citation engineering field. The top cited publications in Google Scholar have 69, 61 and 52 citations correspondigly. For someone who is genuinely academically notable in this field, with the research careeer that is almost 25 years long, I would have expected to see a lot more.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Not particularly encyclopedic. All the sources aren't about the concept of "viral drinks", which appears to simply be drinks that are popular over a period of time, but about individual cocktails themselves. GPL93 (talk) 20:29, 7 August 2019 (UTC)

- I'm not even sure about that, given that all but a few of the drinks are not notable on their own. I think the best course of action would be to mention that "X drink was popular during Y time" in the drink's own article. Best, GPL93 (talk) 22:17, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
- How does notability work, when it comes to lists; does it suffice for the list items to be notable, or do there have to be reliable sources about the topic of the list as a whole? I would think if a lot of such sources existed, it might allow for the expansion of the article to be more than a list.

- What I see happening in some cases is that there will be an article in the press about a trendy drink, that'll compare it to related or similar trends. For example, the flavored malt beverage trend's hard soda component started with root beer and continued with ginger ale, orange soda, etc. But this was part of an overarching trend in which consumers, bored with craft beer, started switching to other beverages that were getting marketed (one of the latest trends being hard seltzer, which in the case of White Claw Hard Seltzer, was driven by marketing inspired by the Smirnoff Ice trend, including the icing phenomenon; Smirnoff Ice itself, by the way, has been described as an attempt to replicate the success of Zima).

More or less I've tried to explain that the article is: A) redundant as we already have articles about Fads and market trends and B) an Original thought, which the original title indicated. However, he thinks that by changing the name of the article to seem like a broader concept or turn it into a list of some sort (which would most likely be WP:LISTCRUFT will somehow get the subject to meet notability standards. Best, GPL93 (talk) 17:30, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
- Weak keep but needs lots of work. The article is now at Popularity spikes of drinks, which is a better article title, but still not great. I think there is some content here and it has been improved since the deletion nomination, but it's quite WP:SYNTH-y. The first four references do actually appear to be about the phenomenon of how drinks are marketed and see popularity spikes, so I think they demonstrate WP:GNG. The latter half of the article is a list and needs clear list criteria as per WP:LSC, but that's achievable. Bondegezou (talk) 10:07, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- I thought about splitting alcoholic drinks and coffee drinks into separate lists, since those seem to be the main categories I ran into when looking up viral drinks. Зенитная Самоходная Установка (talk) 10:14, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

- Keep The concept of a "viral drink" is notable, and warrants an article, iff there are multiple independent reliable secondary sources that describe viral drinks as a concept, as opposed to the various examples given in the article as it currently is. There are a couple sources in the article that appear to do so, such as Mancall-Bitel and Ng, so I'll give this the benefit of the doubt and !vote to keep it. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 15:38, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete/merge Entirely synthesis. While a few of the sources use the term "viral", the topic as a whole isn't widely covered. This could be merged somehow with Food trends, Health food trends, and Camera eats first, but the idea that certain beverages become popular is hardly a notable concept. I don't see any sources tying the drinks listed together. Even with the Mancall-Bitel article, a mention could be made elsewhere but that doesn't establish the need for an independent article.

- Did you take a look at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Viral drink, where there are sources tying together drink trends? Зенитная Самоходная Установка (talk) 23:59, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- Administrative comment. I've moved this back to the original title. It's generally not a good idea to rename a page while an AfD is running, for the reasons outlined in WP:AFDEQ. It really messes up the operation of the closing scripts, and the potential for confusion is illustrated in the discussion above. After this is over (assuming the article is kept), if somebody wants to move it back to the new title, that's fine. But please leave it where it is until the AfD is over. I am neutral. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:03, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete WP:SYNTH without question. No WP:RS anywhere which indicates the notability of a so called phenomenon of a viral drink. Possibly some information here could be used to add to the viral marketing article, but the majority of the information as presented is WP:PROMO... FWIW - northern Italians have been drinking Aperol spritz for 50 years... hardly a viral drink in that context ... this points to the inherent SYNTH issues of the article - in many cases these drinks have existed for long periods.--Goldsztajn (talk) 23:22, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
- WP:SYNTH says, "Do not combine material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources." Do you see in the article a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources?

Article is not noteworthy at all per WP:GNG, and it contains almost no information. The equivalent amount of information is already present in the marketing section of the Iron Man 2 movie page. I suppose that it could be entered into Marvel Cinematic Universe tie-in comics as well, but that's probably a separate discussion for that talk page. I don't think preserving a redirect is even worthwhile. Then there would be a redirect page for every single title out there. 2pou (talk) 22:00, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

- I'm still reviewing sources before I make a final decision, but I want to jump in and mention that Killer Moff's proposed target is the best option so far. The comic is not an MUC tie-in, so Marvel Cinematic Universe tie-in comics is not at all appropriate. The section of Iron Man 2 mentions it, but I don't think characterizing this as part of the marketing campaign is appropriate.

The existence of this unnamed, unclassified species seems to be based on some self-indulgent speculation by a single author [1] (note absence of details about "genetic analysis" etc.) What the second reference, dealing with a pinniped family, is doing in that article, I have no idea - nor how a discussion of fossils, published 30 years prior to the speculative description of this shark, could in any way be relevant to a species supposed to be distinguished by its skin markings...

Contested PROD. Initial concern was that the article failed WP:GNG. Contested opinion stated that the article was made before the TT Pro League was removed from WP:FPL (which it recently was) and thus should remain. I contend that the article does still fail WP:GNG and fails WP:NFOOTY, as the fact that this article was made before TT Pro League was removed from WP:FPL does not mean that it continues that presumption of notability.

Possibly expand Bulldog_(disambiguation) a dab, create a list or category there already is a Category:Bulldog_breeds but needs to be renamed if it remains or make it so it lists various breeds with "Bulldog" in the name.18:43, 7 August 2019 (UTC) Does not to be a standalone article. Atsme Talk 📧 19:56, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
- note to closer - there is only one Bulldog (also known as the British Bulldog, or English Bulldog that is considered a breed, and that is recognized as a purebred dog internationally by notable breed registries, including AKC, The Kennel Club, and Canadian Kennel Club to name a few. What this article is attempting to do involves WP:SYNTH and unreliable sources with anectdotal accounts of history. There are "bully types" but they are not "bulldog breeds" which is how some advocacies attempt to classify them in their quest to ban all bully types, while ignoring the fact that modern purebred dogs (with the exception of the Bulldog breed itself) no longer have any Old English Bulldog in their ancestry, if they had any to begin with at all. The dog breeds listed in the article are either unsourced or poorly sourced, as they are in the main articles. I just started trying to fix the mess that has been created because of misinformation. The dog breeds being referred to in this article as Bulldog breeds have been crossbred over centuries to other breeds and breed-types that have nothing to do with the Bulldog, which explains why the Old English Bulldog became extinct - it was bred out of those other breeds and the only thing that remains is the name because those breeds, such as the American Bulldog, were initially bred to drive and catch cattle and hogs, and don't look anything like a Bulldog. Another parallel to consider: The American Quarter Horse initially came to be by centuries old crossbreeding of the Arabian horse, Spanish Horse, and English-bred horses - we don't have Quarter Horses listed in an article titled Arabian breeds.

- Keep: After doing a hatchet job on the article, nominator now wants the article deleted in favor of simply a 'category', however the article provides more information than a category can possibly offer. Nom offered the reason "unsourced SYNTH" to delete a section. SYNTH requires two or more sources in order to create WP:SYNTH; perhaps nom meant WP:OR instead. Nom removed several other sections while stating they aren't officially recognized breeds and fails GNG. However, WP:GNG is related to whether or not something gets its own article in Wikipedia, not whether it gets a mention within a related article (See WP:NOTEWORTHY). Nom removed the Alano Español section stating "unsourced and issues with verifiability", however some of the information was sourced in the Alano Español, whose link was provided. Nom has nominated two other articles for deletion today [5] [6] alleging they are not "real" dog breeds because they are not officially recognized as breeds. Nomopbs (talk) 22:46, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
- Update: I did extensive work on this article in the last four days. I reworked the lede (which was pretty skimpy) and added citations. I added a section "Names and variants" which helps explain why some of the breeds are included on the page whether or not they have 'bulldog' in their name. I standardized the type, size and placement of images. I went over each of the breeds and made sure each entry had just a summary, ensuring each has some sort of explanation or connection to "bulldog breeds". Though much of the page SEEMS citation-less, the Verifiability factor comes mostly from linking to the main article for each breed. Outside-from-Wikipedia citations are mostly in the original articles. All of the breeds have their own standalone articles except one, Bulldogge Brasiliero, which has its complete original text included in the Bulldog breeds article because of an Afd Merge decision about two weeks ago. In this article, I included breeds based on a more neutral point of view of "What is a bulldog breed?" and not the strict definition expressed by nom ("there is only one Bulldog") — and there are more breeds yet to add to the page.
- I disagree with nom's explanations for her removing several breeds from this article just prior to nominating the entire article for deletion. The deletions were grounded in nom's arbitrary standard requiring that a breed be barred from any mention throughout Wikipedia unless (a) it is recognized by an official national kennel club, and (b) it is notable. Nom recently proposed this as an idea for a new official standard for all Wikipedia dog articles [7] and I posted my reasons for rejection of the idea here [8].
- Vote no to merging with Molosser. Not all bulldog breeds are molosser types and the Bulldog breeds article has value that would be entirely lost if merged into that other article. — Nomopbs (talk) 22:10, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:CLN which tells us that we don't delete one form of structure to favour another. If category:bulldog breeds is acceptable, then an article about them is ok too. See also WP:BROAD. Andrew D. (talk) 22:50, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete or Redirect to Molosser. This appears to be a content fork and was full of OR, though there's been a bit of cleanup. I'm not seeing the need for something separate from Bulldog or the broader family of Molosser breeds. Category:Bulldog breeds is something else entirely, stating "An aggregate of dog breeds with the word "BULLDOG" in the their name. Dog breeds that originate from bulldogs, that do not have the word bulldog in their name should not be included in this category." Montanabw(talk) 23:04, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect - Montanabw has got it right: this is a selection from the lists at Molosser, filled with material from the individual, well-developed articles and with no value added. We do not need individual articles at one end, a list of breeds on the other (and arguably the category even beyond that), AND a partial list of excerpts in the middle. - Random tossing-around of WP:BROAD above ignored as the usual empty one-size-fits-all verbiage. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 16:04, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
- Redirect to Molosser will not work because not all molossers are bulldogs, and not all bulldogs are molossers. The groups overlap, but neither group is a subgroup of the other. Therefore, merging with the Molosser page is not a viable solution. (Note: A large quantity of dogs listed on the Molosser page are not actually molossers.) Nomopbs (talk) 21:44, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. I'm inclined to agree with Montanabw and Elmidae on the redirect to Molosser. However, I'm not convinced that an article of this kind couldn't have value with a major rewrite. On the one hand you have a large list of Molosser breeds, on the other you have detailed articles on individual breeds; the information on their relationships is either limited or fragmented. I think there is scope for an article focusing on a subset of bulldog-like Molossers and how different extinct and modern breeds developed from early bulldogs. You can see the basics for such an article reading the current article. A revised article should focus on the development rather than being another list. Jts1882 | talk 16:19, 7 August 2019 (UTC)

- No vote yet. I know quite a bit about dogs but much more about herding, sporting, and toy breeds than about bull-type dogs or molossers, and without reading a lot more, I'm hesitant to vote. However, the page as it currently stands lists dogs that are all included in Molosser, and I'm not sure that it makes sense to repeat info about the breeds that would already appear in each breed's page. Interestingly, neither page seems to include everything--for example, American Bully, which seems like it would fit in both places. I'm not sure what dogs don't belong in the Molosser page--quick check in other sources for some that seemed like maybes to me (e.g., French Bulldog, Pug...) do indeed seem to be counted as Molossers (e.g., http://www.bulldoginformation.com/small-dog-breeds-molossers.html)-- but the Molosser narrative fails to address small Molossers. I think that the suggestion that an article about the history of bulldog-type breeds could make sense, with a simple list of dogs in that category... but, as I said, not convinced that I know enough about that. Another possible solution could be to add subheads in the Molosser page for bulldog-type breeds and those that aren't, although not sure what the "aren't" ones would be grouped as.

The result was Keep but consider repurposing. Seems like there is a bit of confusion here about whether this should be considered an article about a company or an article about a product, and about which notability guideline to apply since the notability criteria are slightly different. Based on my reading of this discussion, there are several conclusions:
- Judged by WP:NCORP it seems like there is a delete consensus, as neither number of employees nor the popularity of the product are notability criteria; it's all about the sourcing and as noted none of it has been provided.
- On the product it seems like there is actually a consensus to keep, as none of the delete arguments has made the claim that it isn't notable and reasoned arguments have been proffered that it is. Now, the spamming/COI concerns could also be applied here; but neither undisclosed paid editing nor conflicts of interest do automatically require deletion of an otherwise notable topic.
- On whether the topic should be treated as an article on the product or on the company or as both, it seems like the article in its current state is primarily about the company and some editors have suggested that it be repurposed to be mainly about the product to resolve the notability concerns.
On balance, this is a "keep" as there is a consensus that in some form the article can be kept and there are no overriding reasons for removing it altogether, but also "but consider repurposing" as the arguments that the article is better off repurposed about the notable product are legitimate. I recommend a talk page discussion to go more in-depth about this aspect also because WP:NNC (i.e notability criteria dictate whether we cover a topic, not necessarily how we do so) potentially applies here.

Of course notability is not inherited, but I wonder if a restructuring of the entry to focus on the acclaimed plugin instead of the firm would then subject it to WP:WEBCRIT or WP:PRODUCT, which it would likely pass with ease.

- Comment Since the focus of this article is about the company, the topic fails GNG and WP:NCORP (therefore Delete) but the plug-in is well-known and would easily pass the criteria for notability. Since there's also a chance that an article on the plugin would occupy the same name, perhaps it is possible for an interested editor to rework the article so that the focus is the plug-in?

- In general, when the Forbes URL includes .../site/[contributorname]/, you should assume no editorial oversight and treat it like a blog. If you hover over the little "i" next to the author's name you'll see the notice "Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own." But on top of that, the article you're referring to (I believe) includes only two brief paragraphs about Yoast, not "substantial coverage," and therefore not applicable for meeting the criteria of WP:NCORP (which are the notability guidelines that should apply to this entry as written). Pegnawl (talk) 16:53, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
- That coverage is significant for a review, its context not wordcount that matters, and WP:NOTABILITY is quite clear that something must meet either the general notability guidelines, as this clearly does, or one of the subject specific guidelines, it doesn't have to meet both.

- The Forbes 'sites' question has been covered at length over at the Reliable Sources Noticeboard (here's one example that really gets into it).

- Agreed. I wasn't aware contributors were different than writing staff. But a reliable source [9] says over five million people use this, so that makes it notable enough for a Wikipedia article by reason of ignore all rules and basic common sense. Dream Focus 19:04, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

- Question I see the reasoning of some of the Keep !voters above not differentiating between the company (current topic of this article) and the plug-in of the same name by the company. So what are we actually !voting on here? Nobody has produced any references that meet the criteria for notability on the company. That said, I don't think there'll be much problem turning up links for the product. So is this really a !vote to delete or a !vote to amend/change so that the topic is the product?

- Keep. The subject is notable. That's why I did not AfD it along with the founder (see above). gidonb (talk) 03:41, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete First off, lets be clear about what this AfD is about. The topic of this article is the company and therefore the criteria for establishing notability as per WP:NCORP states that "multiple" (at least two) references that support the notability of the company must exist. Despite the reasonable request above to produce any references that meet the criteria, not one has been produced. Also, the WP:NCORP guidelines say in the very first line is: This page is to help determine whether an organization (commercial or otherwise), or any of its products and services, is a valid subject for a separate Wikipedia article dedicated solely to that organization, product, or service. While the majority of editors above agree and have confirmed that the product is likely notably, that isn't the topic of this article. Therefore the reasons to Delete (which have not been dealt with by the Keep !voters are largely two-fold - that there are no references that meet the criteria for establishing notability of the company, topic fails GNG and WP:NCORP and that NCORP explicitly states that the article should be dedicated solely to either the organization or the product.

- You are not reading the guideline correctly, HighKing. The section on churches, for example, specifically allows combined articles, and does not limit combined articles to churches. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 15:35, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Cullen328 - your interpretation of the section on churches (WP:NCHURCH) is incorrect. It quite clearly only applies to churches and church buildings - especially seeing as it comes in a section labelled "Churches". It also clearly states that a combined article is justified *only* if *both* (congregation and building) are notable in their own right. It also doesn't say that an article where the topic is the congregation (which is *not* notable in its own right) is perfectly fine and allowable because their church building happens to be notable in its own right. The very first sentence of the NCORP guidelines couldn't be clearer, one would have to be obtuse to interpret it any differently that as it is written. HighKing 19:29, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- You can call me obtuse all you want, HighKing, but there is nothing whatsoever in that sentence or in that guideline that forbids a combined article about a company and their flagship product of the same name. Deleting this article would remove encylopedic coverage of Yoast, and that would be the wrong outcome of this discussion. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 19:39, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- You've changed from arguing that the section on churches *specifically* *allows* combined articles to saying that there's nothing whatsoever that (specifically) *forbids" a combined article. Okay. I can agree with that. HighKing 22:41, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- That is because both assertions can be true at the same time, and both actually are true, HighKing. Glad to see you onboard. But seriously, keeping and improving this article is the best outcome for the encylopedia, and deleting it is the worst outcome. Pedantry and dogmatism are both counterproductive. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:55, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Except not for the situation you're arguing for which is specifically excluded by the first line of the guidelines. And if its pedantry to point out what the guidelines actually say and to apply those guidelines to this situation, I'll take that. It isn't dogmatism to point out that your interpretation is not supported by the guidelines and goes against the purpose and spirit of the NCORP guidelines but it is obtuse to illogically cling onto a flawed argument and in my view, this is the real counterproductive behaviour. Most of the Delete !voters have clearly said that the topic (the company) fails the criteria of notability but the product (of the same name) would likely meet the criteria. Therefore the article will be improved by a delete/rewrite and at the same time, follow all our guidelines. HighKing 12:40, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete, draftify, revise, re-publish. The entry is clearly about the company (for which I can't find a single piece of "significant coverage" in any RS), while the majority of the Reception sub-section is about the product. The entry should be refocused to concentrate primarily on the much acclaimed plugin and include a subsection for the company/founder. As currently written, this entry should not pass WP:N, on its own and especially through the lens of WP:NCORP. Pegnawl (talk) 19:57, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- Trusting in the ordinary process of editing and improving is vastly superior to deletion as an outcome, Pegnawl. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:55, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Usually I would agree wholeheartedly, but what's required here is not in the same vein as your typical "editing and improving". It's a total refocus that changes the categories, potentially the page name, and adjusts the language in every section. Had a single !keep voter acknowledged or entertained the restructuring recommendation I and others expressed three weeks ago, sure, I would have such faith. But that was not the case, !keep voters like the article as it presently exists, so (IMO) any such bold moves would be in poor taste until this conversation comes to a conclusion. Pegnawl (talk) 13:00, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. An encyclopaedia does not have to list all 100-employee companies unless they are clearly above the threshold of notability for corporations. This one clearly fails the NCORP criteria.

- Keep: per Atlantic306 and Cwmhiraeth Ceethekreator (talk) 08:47, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete I have to disagree with fellow users above because this article is based on unreliable sources and namechecking which are both signs of intent for promotion. First, Pulse Nigeria (almost half of the current sources) is not reliable, more especially when it's occupying prominent position in sources. I have already explained why in this 2018 thread but things only got worse since then, they now report jokes, and atimes help UK's Daily Mail to spread unverfied nonsense. To their credit, they didn't claim any professional diligence in their mission, they say they are simply "popular news platform".
- If we remove Pulse Nigeria from the article (ref 1,5,6,7,12) nothing much will remain. The only reliable source in the article is The Punch, (ref #11), however, it's classic example of a mere-mention. The source only mentioned the subject once, and only once. And this is a name in the midst of 17 other names.
- Source number 8, [13] is a user-generated forum; for comparison, it's reliability can be likened to Wikipediocracy's. Source number 10 is not much better, see their about page.
- Source number 4 is a blatant namechecking. Number 3, a semi-reliable blog while source #9 is an interview. So there's no evidence of significant coverage and not anything meaningful from reliable sources. In short WP:SINGER is not met here.– Ammarpad (talk) 18:55, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

along with the Punch source.
" It appears either you didn't read that Punch's article or you're deliberately trying to use it anyhow just to claim notability. Let me quote the whole paragraph for you. It's the last paragraph and reads:
The highlighted part is the only placed he's mentioned. It'll require an unimaginable stretch to claim that this article makes him notable. What the source only makes clear is that he's just a manager to another artiste, I am not sure when we start hosting article for musicians' managers. That National's article may be a bit better (it's an interview anyway), but we will require multiple of them to show this manager's notability. – Ammarpad (talk) 14:52, 20 August 2019 (UTC)Others include Sensei Uche, Kemi Smallz, Mr Real, CDQ, Jaywon, Iyanya, Okiki DFT, Blaqbonez, Oluwakaponeski, Victor AD, Sess Beats, Lyta, Somto Cody Akanegbu, SamPhrank, Tomi Thomas (Mayorkun’s manager), Shakar El, Awazi and Osagie John-Osarenz.

- Keep per Goodie and Cwmhiraeth; the sources provided check out, and the subject retains enough notability for an article. Utopes (talk) 22:15, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- Well, except I have proven they're all unreliable (the only reliable [14] mentioned him ONCE in a list of 17 other people), Goodie and Cwmhiraeth did not refute that. You cannot establish notability based on utterly unreliable sources; and there's no notability to 'retain' as it was never established in the first place. That's a policy. It's not negotiable. – Ammarpad (talk) 08:52, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

- I did not claim any 'consensus', did I? I explained why it's unreliable, if you disagree you have to explain why it's reliable. If you consider printing jokes (which you called "light hearted") as a journalistic professionalism, me I don't. I also explain how they're republishing nonsense intoto from WP:DAILYMAIL [15].

- @Atlantic306: per the national link provided by Josalm64rc which is a notable newspaper in UAE look's reliable enough to meet WP:GNG cause WP:GNG never stated how many source needed to meet it criteria and also i updated the article. He was part of the musical artist selected to mobilise vote at the 2019 Nigerian general election. To what I stated above he meets WP:SINGER and clearly meets WP:GNG. --Goodie9696 (talk) 07:00, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
... selected to mobilise vote...
"selected" by who? Your statement makes it look like this was by a government body or a notable organization. It was neither. The news mentioned Tomi once, who was in fact mentioned by the "Lead Influencer" of the organization. The organization TheElectionNetwork is non-notable, the lead influencer Noble Igwe has a questionable biography. I am not sure, but I doubt, if that was a registered organization. It was just an ad hoc pseudo-group for the purpose of campaign and it went it oblivion as soon as campaigns are over. If you believe it was a genuine organization, please provide evidence. GNG did not mandate number of sources, but it requires"significant coverage" [that] addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content.
There are no sources to meet that and certainly we can't deduct that from one interview without excessive synthesis and original research. – Ammarpad (talk) 16:06, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. State circuit court is not an automatic free pass over our notability standards for judges, but the article is not reliably sourced for the purposes of getting him over the bar he would actually have to clear — as usual for Billy Hathorn content, it is "referenced" to a mix of unreliable sources that are not support for notability at all, clarifying notes that aren't actually references of any sort, and purely tangential referencing of stray biographical facts about his family members, with no evidence whatsoever of reliable source coverage about him.

Weak delete.Google Scholar gives him the h-index of 33. That's pretty good but not spectacular for a high citation field he works in. I could not find anything else.

- Comment (more like question for the nominator) Can you read Assamese? Since that's the language of the film, most meaningful coverage (if any exists) will be in Assamese so I, for one, cannot conclude that such sources are absent. I'd note that the screenwriter (if the article's info is correct) is fairly notable and that the film did win a prize (though a second prize in a festival of limited notability). Pichpich (talk) 23:20, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
- @Pichpich: thanks for chiming in. I can't read Assamese and I do see your point. Pinging @Wiki.Gunjan: as the only active member of WikiProject Assam. The draft was declined at AfC for being improperly sourced, and was subsequently moved to mainspace by a sock, without any improvement. I think there is WP:BURDEN on the author to properly reference the material in the article which would give us the opportunity to run the citations through Google Translate.

- Delete - the film does not meet any of the five criteria of WP:NFO - nor does it meet any of the "Inclusionary criteria" for films that fail WP:NFO - the production company, Shivam Creation, is not India's equivalent of a "major film studio" as this seems to be their only film - the guideline states, "Articles on such a film should assert that the film in question was notable for something more than merely having been produced." - the one award the film won is not a major award as required by the guideline (although the guideline notes that, "Standards have not yet been established to define a major award, but it's not to be doubted that an Academy Award, or Palme D'or, Camera D'or, or Grand Prix from Cannes would certainly be included.") - this article seems promotional only - notability not established; therefore, delete - Epinoia (talk) 20:40, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - need to bear in mind WP:WORLDVIEW - de jure application of WP:NFO would exclude 1,000s of notable non-English films from wikipedia. The film is an adaption of the work of a nationally recognised and awarded writer in Assamese. The film was awarded second prize at the largest film festival covering North-East India (home to 45 million people). initial creation of the article suggests WP:COI issues, but subsequent edits seem to have resolved that.--Goldsztajn (talk) 07:55, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

Fails WP:NALBUM. I originally redirected this article to Dr. John as it's not notable and not what it says in the text, but I was reverted by the editor Mudwater, who suggested I take the matter to AfD instead (not entirely certain about that, although he was absolutely correct to say that I should have altered the album chronologies accordingly). Nevertheless, this article and its existence is a confusing mess. It is not a studio album, as stated, but a compilation of old recordings. The infobox states that the album was released on Trip Records in 1989, but the track listing is from an identically-titled album on Charly/Topline Records from 1984/1985 [17], [18], while the Trip Records album is from 1973 [19]. There are also compilations titled "Zu Zu Man" on Thunderbolt Records from 1989 [20], Zillion Records from 1991 [21], [22], and Metronome Records from 2000 [23]. You'll notice that these compilations contain many of the same tracks as each other – they are all unofficial releases of the sessions that Dr. John recorded in the mid-1960s before the release of his debut album Gris-Gris. The AllMusic review of the 1975 compilation Cut Me While I'm Hot [24] explains this in more detail, and you can see that most of the tracks appear on that album as well (well before 1989). In short, this is not a studio album, or notable, and there are two options here. I still favour a redirect – "ZuZu Man" was one of Dr. John's best known songs, and it's a valid search term for him. The other option is to WP:TNT the article and write it again from scratch as one of the compilations, stating that it's a compilation and not a studio album, and correcting the track listing, record label and cover art for the chosen album. But seeing as there are at least five albums with this name and they are all unofficial releases, I wouldn't be that hopeful of finding any other reviews or detailed sources other than the two AllMusic reviews noted above.

- Delete - The small amount of online commentary for this album indicates that it is indeed a compilation of old outtakes, so I have updated the article to that effect. However, I agree with the nominator in that this seems to be an unauthorized and/or unofficial quickie release that came and went without notice by anyone other than collectors and completists, and it can be confused with other quickie compilations of the same title. Many notable musicians have unauthorized cheap compilations like this, but that does not make the albums themselves notable. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 17:17, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- Comment – I would like to thank Richard3120 for looking into this, and for providing a thoughtful and detailed explanation. I've checked on this myself, and as far as I can tell, his main findings are correct. There are several different bootleg albums called ZuZu Man, with similar content but different track listings, that compile some early recordings of Dr. John. The article was getting a couple of those mixed together, and there's also the question of whether this is a studio album, a compilation, or what. That's all good stuff, but not in itself sufficient to warrant the deletion of the article. The real question there is whether or not one of the ZuZu Man albums is a sufficiently notable bootleg to meet the criteria of WP:NALBUM. If yes, the article should be kept. But, to paraphrase Robert Mueller... If we had confidence after a thorough investigation of the facts that one of the ZuZu Man bootleg albums met the notability criteria, we would so state. Based on the facts and the applicable Wikipedia guidelines, however, we are unable to reach that judgment. — Mudwater (Talk) 00:19, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

Fails WP:NOTABLE/WP:GNG.The topic appears to have been invented by the original editor. No references in the article refer to the word 'supergun', and I have found no reliable sources that define this term. No sources are given to support the assertions in the lead. The principal sources/references in the early part of the article are German texts relating to 16th century weapons which use the word 'Riesengeschütze' ('giant guns'). There is no evidence that these guns, nor the guns up to the nineteenth and most of the twentieth century, have ever been referred to by reliable sources as 'superguns'. The word 'supergun' appears to be a modern confection used in journalism, etc., but without any clear definition. There is no encylopaedic reason, (except WP:OR) to include in one article descriptions of mediaeval guns with those of modern guns under this same word. The article has been tagged under WP:WEASEL since January 2012. Parts of the article might be relocated in other articles, (e.g. Artillery). At present it is just a WP:OR assembly of miscellaneous information about large guns. Smerus (talk) 12:01, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

- The topic most definitely was not invented by the original editor, unless xe had a time machine to take xem back from 2004 to 1990. What the original editor wrote about, however, was not what other people later turned this article into. Put the phrase ″supergun affair″ into some search engines. Would that the original editor had thought to use Supergun affair as the title from the start! Then people would have not added every big gun that they could think of to the article, and by now we might have had an article on the original subject that the article creator started writing about. Uncle G (talk) 15:37, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- Uncle G, thanks for this perspective. Clearly, even in your view, the article is not presently fit for purpose. I learn from this that it is only the last section of the article, Supergun#Recent_developments, that can be held to relate to the notion of 'supergun'. Is therefore one answer to change the article title as you suggest, and remove what doesn't relate to that title to other appropriate articles? I would be happy to support that if it has consensus.Smerus (talk) 17:01, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- Steven Zaloga wrote about superguns, but offered no cohesive definition of the concept, did so in 2018 a decade and a half after this article existed, covered the very topics here, and made pointed remarks about encyclopaedias in doing so. So I suspect that xe took the notion from Wikipedia. In any case, the lack of a definition is a problem, and no-one else seems to have adopted this, from Zaloga or Wikipedia.
I would say ignore that section and the current introduction entirely, grow a Supergun affair article from scratch, and try to work out whether there is a real subject here that is being obscured. Is this about bombards? Or siege guns perhaps? What, if any, overarching subject does encompass large-calibre artillery? Would the UNROCA Category III definition do? Then slap that on the article introduction with a decent source and rename.

Reason provided: It's time to revisit the discussion of deletion for this page. Questionable notoriety is the main reason. Sources for the books lead back to the author's own (deleted) website and many of the books seem to be self-published. The "Kosovo Roma Refugee Foundation" (KRRF) is also practically nonexistent source-wise except for secondary references; there's almost zero reference to the NGO to be found, making it appear to be another one-man project set up by the subject. The fact that several of the subject's books were published by KRRF, supposedly a refugee support organization, also makes the NGO sound dubious at best & the publishing by KRRF seems to be another self-publishing project.

The article in Billboard (currently footnote #12) definitely helps, but otherwise his music has not been noticed by reliable media and this WP article has a suspicious number of citations that go to dead sites. There are some fairly reliable sources for things that have been done by his record company and charity, but those would be more valid for articles about them. Otherwise this WP article is surely an attempted promotion for a guy who is good at networking and getting himself into pictures with famous people. Good luck to him in his many ventures but a WP article will have to wait until he is noticed by someone other than himself.

This one looks like it has a lot of sources but several are actually about other things, such as a news article about Hurricane Sandy which happened around the time his mom died, or another about the Orlando shooting which he has an opinion about.

This article has been deleted twice per WP:PROD already, once in 2015 (Reason given: self promotion article, questionable notability, most sources from his own website, major contributors have only contributed to this article) and once in 2008 (Reason given: Lacks references and notability - see WP:BIO). In 2016, the article was uploaded once again. As of today, this article has been written almost entirely by four accounts: Hansi-Klump (63 % of content), Balint-Gabor (28 %), Johnnycottonx (3 %) and Hamm-Ging (2 %). All four of these accounts belong to a ring of 33 sockpuppets blocked on the German Wikipedia after an extensive investigation. This block has been applied globally this week. All 33 sockpuppets were found to be operated by one person. As some of these accounts have uploaded pictures by Bieniek himself to Commons, the conclusion is that Bieniek has written this article all by himself, using fake identities over the course of almost ten years, spamming 44 different language versions of Wikipdia. Policies against sockpuppetry and COI editing aside, this article is a big balloon full of hot air. The majority of statements are sourced to Bieniek's website, mentions on 3rd party media are treated as if the article concerned itself only with Bieniek, his 5 minutes of fame are extended ad nauseam, projects from film school are treated like blockbusters, etc. etc. The text is nothing but blatant self-advertising and puffery. I see no valid reason for anyone to waste their time checking up on sources or "polishing the text", thus rewarding the breach of policy and cheating. For this very reason, these "auto-biographies" have been deleted in the French-language Wikipedia, the Italian-language Wikipedia and the German-language Wikipedia. I suggest we follow suit here. (These same reasons apply to Doublefaced, Bieniek-Face, The Gamblers (2007 film), Silvester Home Run as well, but lets focus on the main piece first.) Minderbinder (talk) 08:29, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete - Sourcing is weak and does not show in-depth coverage compliant with notability criteria. The article(s) are outright advertising irrelevant to the purpose of an encyclopedia. Wikipedia is not a personal website. The work is not in any museum collections, nor is the artist represented in art history books, nor is the artist a major figure in the contemporary art world.

- Delete Having assessed the 127 sources this article had, which are now reduced to 22 after a few of us have removed the inconsequential clutter, I recommend to delete because it does not have enough reliable sources with WP:SIGCOV of the subject to satisfy WP:GNG or WP:ARTIST. By my estimation, those RS it does now have amount to only one exhibition review in Tages-Anzeiger and coverage of the same work around the same time in inferno-magazine.com, which is not a publication I am sure is reliable.

The result was delete. This was a close debate. In the end, the consensus appears to be that, while Zanna is very likely to be a suitable subject for an article in the future - possibly the very near future - at this point in time she does not meet the relevant notability criteria.

No yet notable. The citations are too low for notability by WP:PROF. : 59, 58, 53. The prize is an early career award, meaning someone who is hoped will be notable someday, a sort of junior varsity.

- Keep As per Wikipedia Academic Notability criteria [1]. Her work has received considerable coverage outside of the bubble of academia. Jesswade88 (talk) 20:45, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. No pass of WP:Prof#C1 on basis of GS citations in this very highly cited field. WP:Too soon now, but matters may have changed in five years time. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:27, 14 August 2019 (UTC).
- What would count as enough citations given her 2014 paper in Ocean Modelling is 12 times more cited than the average for the field? Richard Nevell (talk) 22:40, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- looking back at academic AfDs over the past ten years, the impression that emerges is that for an average-cited field the cut-off is around 1000 citations or an h-index of around 15. For a highly-cited field, such as climate change, these numbers would be much higher; for a low-cited field such as theology or philosophy much lower. The procedure is to compare like with like. The subject's cites on GS [26] are 664 cites and an h-index of 16, so her statistics are only marginal, even for an average-cited field and there is not a pass of WP:NACADEMIC#1. If you want to show notability here, find other mainstream climate scientists with BIOs on Wikipedia having an equal or lower citation record. The average cites per paper in most fields are very low and any substantially cited paper will have cites much above average. Anyway, the specific paper you refer to[27] has two authors, so she gets only half the credit for it. Having said all this, her citations on GS are growing strongly and, if she continues as she is, she will pass WP:Prof#C1 in a few years.
- At present WP:TOO SOON. Xxanthippe (talk) 02:43, 15 August 2019 (UTC).
- I see no reason to divide "credit" by the number of authors. Even going down that path presumes both knowledge of relative contributions and quantifiability thereof, which strike me as extremely dubious. (And if one did want to attempt that kind of hair-splitting, one should incorporate the fact that Zanna is the one distinguished as corresponding author. Does that give her 60% instead of 50%? 75%?) XOR'easter (talk) 17:50, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- I don't know what the average for a researcher in the field is, but what is the judgement of marginality being based on? Zanna has written or co-written plenty of papers which are above the average for citations in their field. Aside from the above paper, there's another where the field citation ratio is 13 and classed as 'extremely highly cited'. Even then, citations don't tell the full story of impact, and this paper has been picked up by 40 news outlets. Richard Nevell (talk) 18:36, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

- The Royal Society was a spinoff from Wadham College which is clearly an elite academic body. She sits at its top table and this seems adequate recognition of her status. As we also have #1, we have enough for a pass as guidelines are not hard policies or rigid rules but are merely indicative. My !vote stands. Andrew D. (talk) 10:07, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- The Royal Society was formed by a group of people associated with Wadham in 1662. Wadham remains important; the Royal Society had become world-famous. A fellowship at Wadham is an appropriate rank for an academic who is not yet notable. A Fellow of the Royal Society is an honour for someone famous. DGG ( talk ) 20:42, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. In the British system, the term "fellow" can have any of a widely-varying collection of meanings. Some checking indicates a title of "David Richards Fellow and Tutor in Physics", which seems to be a tutorial fellow...namely, a professor who is responsible for teaching undergrads in their own areas of specialty. This is decidedly not a designation that satisfies PROF c1 or c3. Agricola44 (talk) 15:17, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Notice the word "and". Teaching duties are separate from the status and title of Fellow. Wadham has "Fellows and academic staff" and people may be the latter without being a fellow. There are numerous tutors and lecturers there who are not fellows while being a fellow makes you part of the governing body of the College. The college is an illustrious institution and so we have the sort of status expected for #3. My !vote stands. Andrew D. (talk) 13:39, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

- Weak Keep. H-index is around 15 - which yes - is marginal for the field - but is also fairly high for a young scholar. Furthermore - it is a very solid 15 - evenly spread out, article number 20 has 10 citations and she's getting cited at a fast rising pace (2016 - 50, 2017 - ~100, 2018 - 160. 2019 - 160 to date) - which is a likely indication that this h-index will probably rise (e.g. recent 2017 papers are at 13, 13, 11, and 10 citations - so likely they'll push past 15 soon given they're getting cited at ~5/year so far) - it doesn't take a big crystal ball here to see a h-index of around 20 soon. When we add to this that a google-news search shows she's getting quoted quite a bit in mainstream press (e.g. New York Times, Guardian, Popular Mechanics, etc.) - you also see a reach here beyond academia. Does she clearly pass WP:NPROF#1? No, but she's close. Does she pass WP:NPROF#7? Possibly. Does she pass GNG? Probably not (but hard to tell given all the times she's quoted - need to sift through and see if she's profiled as well). However the ensemble here as a whole - very close to our notability threshold (possibly over), and on a clearly rising trajectory - is per WP:NOTPAPER worth preserving. Icewhiz (talk) 14:50, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. This seems to be a good-faith BLP that is TOOSOON. XXan recounted our long-standing framework used to eval PROFs and, in a very hot, high-activity field like climate change, her record in this context is decidedly average. This seems to be grudgingly admitted by some of the above "keeps" that are rhetorically straining to retain this one. To get an idea of clear notability in this area, I would point to someone like Natalie Mahowald (who does not even have a WP BLP – I have added this to my TODO list). Note that it would be unusual for someone working in this field to not have a few interviews here and there. Trajectory seems good, but, as XXan observed, it's toosoon. Agricola44 (talk) 15:06, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep basically per Icewhiz and Joe Roe. (At worst, unobjectionable content and a rising trajectory would be a case for draftifying until such time as wiki-notability is obvious.) XOR'easter (talk) 16:31, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Addendum I upgraded one of the references from a content mirror to the original source in the Guardian. There seems to be an at-least adequate amount of WP:RS coverage of her work, which is what wiki-notability for scientists is ultimately based upon. (The whole point of WP:PROF is that we can improve the encyclopedia by writing about people whose work is independently established to be important, even if those people don't get biographical details splashed everywhere like, say, movie stars do.) XOR'easter (talk) 18:39, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- To clarify the "rising trajectory" remark: the only reason that entered my considerations was because the article falls into a borderline or gray area where PROF and GNG are concerned. Good citation profile, but not stellar; substantial media coverage (not just brief quotes in local news) of her work, but not of her personally. I'm stuck having to make a judgment call, without the normal crutches that make such matters easy (and give the eventual decision a veneer of quantitativeness). So the question for me becomes, would this languish as a perma-stub? The text of it isn't indulging in freewheeling speculation. After cutting a sentence about a best-paper award, the bits and pieces of it all appear above the threshold of things worth mentioning. Keeping it seems the better course of action than otherwise. XOR'easter (talk) 16:12, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. She is just an ordinary and relatively young scientist who is not notable by our standards. H-index is only around 15 (in natural sciences). No significant awards, no 3rd party publications about the person. One needs to refer either to her own publications or to official website of the University to find any information about the person. My very best wishes (talk) 18:30, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep as her achievements and citations show a rising trajectory, as per Icewhiz, JessWade88. Her career indicates a rising star, in a highly esteemed university.DrPlantGenomics (talk) 23:58, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. Yes, you and the others are basically arguing CRYSTAL. Agricola44 (talk) 01:13, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
- Comment: a "rising trajectory" is the classic expression of not yet notable. Academics --and everyone and everything else as well-- become notable when they have risen. DGG ( talk ) 20:42, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, Xxanthippe, and My very best wishes. Fails WP:PROF and WP:GNG. We can move it to draft if others think it is WP:TOOSOON. Being "young" or on "a rising trajectory" are not valid keep arguments. Edwardx (talk) 20:14, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete without prejudice against later re-creation if her notability improves, per WP:TOOSOON. Draftification would be acceptable but I'd recommend against it because the draft would likely need both several years waiting (for her to become notable) and significant rewriting (to write about the stuff she would have become notable for) before it could become acceptable. Puffing the article with minor things like early-career and best-paper awards and detailed descriptions of individual research papers sourced to those individual research papers are signs that the more significant awards, works by other people that cover her research in-depth, or other ways she could become notable haven't happened yet. As the discussion above suggests, the citation record is promising but not yet at the level needed for WP:PROF#C1 in a high-citation field, her "fellow" title is routine for all Oxbridge faculty rather than being the kind of fellow that passes #C3, and there is no indication that she passes any of the other criteria. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:36, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

- So instead of adding a further reading section at Mashrafe Mortaza containing citations for book biographies, you decided to create an individual article per book, sourcing them (as here) to on-line shopping and advertisements. That was not a good editorial decision. Uncle G (talk) 09:30, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
@Uncle G: There have verified news portal which was published news about this book. And concern about online shop,I just gave to admin can see the isbn number. And I know that promotional link is not suitable for Wikipedia,it will remove. And If promotional link remove, I Don't bother but I Strongly keep that this book is enough notable to be here! Rasi56 (talk) 10:22, 14 August 2019 (UTC)- Then you are not applying notability. Notability is not fame nor importance. It is whether there is enough objective, proper, in-depth documentation of a subject to support a non-permastub article. If there isn't then one is putting things into the encyclopaedia wrongly to give such things individual articles. In this case, you have a few biography books of a person, and a biographical article for that person that does not cite any book-length biographies at all. The idea of citing the book biographies as further reading seems obvious, not writing individual permastub articles about the books that readers of the biographical article will never find. (Note that the novels are not covered by this, as they do not constitute factual resources. Note also that I am assuming that said biographies are decent informational resources about the person whose biography they are.) To have individual articles about the books, the books themselves must be documented in depth. (This goes for the novels, too.) Uncle G (talk) 11:02, 14 August 2019 (UTC)

- @Rasi56: You don't understand Wikipedia's notability guidelines. It is much harder to show that a book is notable than you think. I've seen books turned down despite having five substantial reviews in reliable sources. At Articles for deletion, it took a hard fight in a discussion with wide participation to keep even one with six reviews in The Times (London), The New York Review of Books, The Times Literary Supplement, The New York Times, The Economist, and the Providence Journal.
- To count towards demonstrating notability, reviews need to be full-length and by professional reviewers. Think 1,500 words by Michiko Kakutani of The New York Times. Reviews should describe such things as the book's target audience, organization, style, themes, and tone. They should provide background, compare and contrast it with other works, bolster or refute arguments in it, and give an informed opinion of it. Short "capsule" reviews, or publicity in connection with a book tour (or book fair, as in the case of the risingbd piece you cite), are worthless for notability.
- The other sources you've linked have nothing to do with the notability of the book. If an author is notable, that doesn't make a book by him notable.
- Starting new articles on non-notable subjects is creating a big mess that other editors have to clean up. If English is not your first language, you may find it difficult to contribute constructively through new articles. There are many other important tasks in Wikipedia that can be accomplished with less fluency. If your interest is cricket, see this cleanup list of thousands of identified problems in existing cricket articles that need fixing, or see Wikipedia:WikiProject Cricket for other ways to help. Alternatively, you might be more comfortable contributing to a different language version of Wikipedia, such as the Bengali one. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:35, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

- Delete Non Notable, no significant coverage from reliable sources. ~~ OxonAlex - talk 07:13, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete None of the roles as actor (including such roles as "Son in living room", "Church Parishioner" and "Posse Member") support a claim of notability nor do the behind the camera roles back such a claim. Sources here are overwhelmingly from IMDb and no meatier reliable and verifiable sources about him could be identified in a Google search. Alansohn (talk) 16:21, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete If this was previously deleted, it seems nothing has changed or somehow IMDb is a reliable source. 1989 (talk) 20:10, 14 August 2019 (UTC)
