Poorly sourced WP:BLP of a writer, whose primary notability claim is having written a book that was optioned for a film that still hasn't actually been released six years later. This is not a solid notability claim that would hand a writer a free pass over WP:AUTHOR all by itself -- but nothing else stated here meets any other notability criteria, and the sourcing is not getting him over WP:GNG: it's referenced primarily to primary sources, blogs, Q&A interviews in which he's speaking about himself and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other things or people, not to notability-supporting coverage about him. There's also a likely conflict of interest here, as the article was created by an editor whose only other contribution to Wikipedia was an equally poorly sourced article about the subject's wife. Literally nothing here is "inherently" notable for the purposes of establishing that he passes our subject-specific inclusion criteria for writers or aviators, but the sourcing isn't even close to getting him over WP:GNG.

Dayna Steele (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Highly advertorialized biography of an author and unelected political candidate, not properly referenced as passing any of Wikipedia's notability criteria. This is referenced far too heavily to sources that are not support for notability, such as raw tables of election results and blogs and YouTube videos and a book's buy-it page on Amazon.com -- and the fewer sources that are reliable source media coverage are almost entirely from her own hometown media, except for a brief glancing namecheck of her existence in a human interest piece about her parents-in-law.
There's also a likely conflict of interest here, as the article was first created by a user whose only other contribution to Wikipedia was an article about Dayna Steele's husband, and has since been "managed" primarily by a user who has periodically returned to update it with new information at random intervals over the course of six years, but has never contributed to Wikipedia on any other topic whatsoever -- so if that user isn't Dayna Steele herself, then it's almost certainly a friend, a family member or a paid PR agent.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable for the purposes of establishing that she would pass any of our subject-specific notability criteria, but the sourcing isn't even close to getting her over WP:GNG. Bearcat (talk) 23:11, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Sourcing is weak, local, and/or brief, even though her enthusiastic self-promotion does get her mentioned in some non-local media. Her careers have been minor and local. And although she has had a series of careers, her claim to notability in any of them remains unclear.E.M.Gregory (talk) 13:06, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I can't see how the topic of this WP:SPA-created page is notable. The gallery gets about 12 news hits, all relating to discussion of work or artists who had shown or been shown there. I do not see any of the substantial in-depth coverage of the business itself that would either justify having an article or enable us to write it – though the Independent article is a small step in that direction.

  • Delete I was going to suggest a merge to Will Lunn, but notability by our standards is marginal there as well. GNG and NCORP fail.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 01:51, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Of those sources that are about the gallery and not what it is showing... Whitehot Magazine of Contemporary Art probably satisfies as being sustained coverage in a WP:RS. The 2 Dazed features are interviews so don't count. There's a bit more than just an announcement (albeit along with an interview, which has to be discounted) in The Independent in 2011. If Whitehot is a RS then that totals 1.5 by my reckoning, not enough to build an article on yet but enough to think that one could be salvageable given a deeper hunt for sources. -Lopifalko (talk) 06:07, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I agree that the Whitehot Magazine meet the criteria for establishing notability but I don't think any of the others are. Hopefully another reference can be found (I am unable to locate any) but if not, I would say Delete. HighKing 13:46, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article has had a notability tag for seven years, and I'm not finding any sources that aren't self-published or passing mentions. The only sources in the article relate to the subject winning a non-notable award and being nominated for another award that doesn't seem notable either. It also appears the article was deleted in 2010 for similar notability issues. Aspening (talk) 22:08, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jenny Nicholson (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Jenny Nicholson has requested that this article be taken down. Personal information has already been removed by various users because she expressed discomfort with the details having been shared due to a stalker in the past, but Ms. Nicholson would prefer to not even have a page, as it's likely that people will still try to add that information or refer to what was previously there. One user (likely assuming the deletions were malicious) has already been reverting deletions made by users attempting to remove personal information on the subject, hence the ask to remove the entire page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trickycrayon (talkcontribs) 21:40, July 7, 2019 (UTC)

  • Comment While I understand there are privacy concerns with this article, I do not know that deletion of the entire article should be a solution if this article meets the criteria of notability for living persons. If it does I recommend keeping it if the privacy issues can be rectified. We do not want to set dangerous precedents that subjects can start dictating what should be and should not be in articles about them or even if there is one about them, lest we start having issues with neutral point of view. --Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Edits) 22:26, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'd agree with No1Lakersfan, the subject is notable enough to warrant an article, but given how bizarrely personal the article was before it was edited I feel like the page needs protection/semi-protection or someone to watch the page and make sure it's okay. In the interim I will vote to keep the article, but there needs to be closer monitoring. More importantly this needs to not happen again, so extending protection as long as possible would be best. AngryZinogre (talk) 23:05, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Fully respecting Ms. Nicholsons feelings of unease and agreeing with any edits deemed fit to rectify this situation. The information may have been too detailed but it's inaccurate to label as extraordinarily personal as it was readily available through her influential social media platforms for her large audience and regarded topics she routinely discusses as a Youtuber and influencer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TwilightFluttershy (talkcontribs) 01:10, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • I would second protecting for as long as possible if the page cannot or should not be removed, and I would contest the notion that information is "readily available" on social media. Ms. Nicholson clearly stated earlier today that information contained in the page as of earlier today would have to be found by doing quite a bit of digging back into her social media accounts; not to get too much into semantics, but that's not the same as "readily available" as in "something you can find by looking at her own Twitter bio or website". Trickycrayon (talk) 01:41, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • While IMDb is not a good source of information for Wikipedia, it does have some of the same information that was being displayed here. Yes some of what was posted someone ‘dug’ up, but some of it is out there just by searching Google. Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Edits) 02:02, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • Already agreed with whatever action the team deems correct but respectfully, what content would we have on every actor, musician, writer and content creators page on this site if not information that's been "dug up" as opposed to a few sentences they post on their facebook, instagram or twitter bios. Her DOB is on her imdb, her city of residence on twitter, her patreon count on patreon and numerous articles about her or even written by her are all a google search away but stripped from this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TwilightFluttershy (talkcontribs) 05:40, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think that it's obvious that the majority of the additions made to her page grossly violates the BLP standards and that the only neutral things that can be put on her article right now is what is already on there. Because of that, I don't think she's particularly notable enough to warrant a wikipedia page, and thus I vote to delete this page as well. Victory in Germany (talk) 05:55, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. No proper sources of the subject other than databases or primary that do not establish notability and given the privacy issues along with her wishes, it's better than the article doesn't exist. : Zubin12 (talk) 15:52, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The WP:GNG requires significant coverage in reliable sources, which hasn't been demonstrated. She has plenty of short mentions, and appears in some lists of YouTube channels, but that doesn't really cut it, as the length of the article as it stands shows. There's not enough RS coverage of Nicholson to write an encyclopedia article about her, for now. Ralbegen (talk) 18:02, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Are you judging based on the article as it currently stands? Because there WERE references to newspaper articles where she is singled out as one of a few Youtubers who actually are making a name for themselves but those references are now gone as someone took a hatchet to the article for no reason that I can understand and now that the article is locked (as well as previous versions) it's hard to find those references. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 19:19, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@MadScientistX11: An administrator locked the article and made previous versions invisible due to serious BLP violations. I'm judging the reliable source coverage based on looking for appropriate sources. Being singled out by a newspaper doesn't necessarily constitute significant coverage, and I've not been able to find any RS coverage that I think is significant. The article in its previous state was dominated by primary sourced material. Ralbegen (talk) 20:31, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No, it wasn't. This version (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jenny_Nicholson&direction=prev&oldid=897872177) had 27 sources, of which 16 were mainstream news outlets. 86.41.176.226 (talk) 22:05, 9 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If the article revision noted here does not have the privacy issues that have brought about this whole process, and the sources noted are reputable, it appears notability can be established. I do care about the privacy aspect, but if there is enough information available on the subject that does not breach privacy (if it’s published in a secondary source it’s public knowledge anyway) the article has merit. The content that breached privacy primarily came from social media, a source that can have its issues with being a good source depending on what it is cited for.
Long story short, I hope this aspect of the discussion will be considered along with all the other information. Hopefully this will become a lesson for the subject on publicly sourced info, and for everyone else on how to handle privacy issues.--Willy No1lakersfan (Talk - Edits) 01:02, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I created this page which as a fan is a bit awkward. Is the page as I created it (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jenny_Nicholson&oldid=900988298) so bad? I did search her Twitter just to see where she went to school and to confirm her birthdate (it was already on IMDB) . To be honest I don't like the idea that a celebrity can just ask that a page on them can be deleted and wikipedia users just jump to it. Maybe it could remove any personal info. Sheila1988 (talk) 18:03, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • The swift addition of further extremely personal details by other users is what became problematic, and the concern is that it could happen again. As far as celebrity goes, see other comments on WP:GNG. Trickycrayon (talk) 18:59, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • We are conflating two issues here. One issue is that allegedly (I haven't seen the evidence) inapropriate personal info kept being added to her article. The other is whether her article meets the standards for wp:notability I think she does meet the standard. The personal info can and should be dealt with in other ways such as protecting the page and/or blocking the editors who keep putting it back in. The personal info question has ABSOLUTELY NO BEARING on whether her article should be deleted. And it's hard to make the case for notability now that the page is locked and all that is there is a stub with all the references that were there in the past gone. I've actually participated in a few AFDs where I always argued against "Youtube celebrities" and when I stumbled across this article my first thought was I might nominate it for deletion but when I looked at the references (now no longer there) they seemed to be enough to merit an article. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 19:14, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • Just addressing both points brought up by the original author. Information such as when Nicholson worked in what position at Disneyland Park, when she left, her horse's name, etc. were added to the article. This is particularly inappropriate due to past stalking behavior and Nicholson's concern for her safety if information is aggregated about her in an easily searchable/public place. We can disagree on notability all day long, I suppose, but I'm also concerned about safety here. Trickycrayon (talk) 19:33, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:NPF and the subject not wanting the article in the first place. We don't like sourcing to IMDb, and I know TVTropes certainly isn't meeting our sourcing guidelines in the first place. Not a lot of WP:GNG either (please don't bother responding about the past state of the article either, it isn't germane to the as-is state of the article now, nor could I even comment on it as I'm not an admin). Definitely keep the salting until the subject both wants an article, and it's not written in a privacy violating manner. Nate (chatter) 20:01, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Tv Tropes is not cited as a source, just an external link. Wikipedia generally does not ask people whether they want an article or not. The advice you linked to seems good: exercise restraint and include only material relevant to the person's notability, focusing on high-quality secondary sources. Material published by the subject may be used, but with caution; see § Using the subject as a self-published source. I mean, we get endless comment about lack of coverage of women on Wikipedia, but i don't think we should cover any living women if the whole thing can be salted at the subject's whim. Sheila1988 (talk) 20:20, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete if someone can find sufficient secondary sources to meet WP:BLP guidelines (note: not just any secondary sources, but reliable and verifiable ones) then they should do so. The article doesn't meet these criteria now and going through the history, it never really has. Heavily citing her personal twitter page as past versions did is a gross violation of WP:NOR sthomson06 (Talk) 20:26, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Well, there are tons of new secondary sources now that I check. The "younglings" affair earned a whole article from Newsweek (https://www.newsweek.com/star-wars-galaxys-edge-cast-younglings-disney-1442668) - There are few bigger Star Wars fans than movie YouTuber Jenny Nicholson, another namecheck from CNBC (https://www.cnbc.com/2019/06/04/you-can-buy-jedi-robes-at-star-wars-galaxys-edge-but-cant-wear-them.html), another list of "top YT channels" on Mashable (https://sea.mashable.com/culture/4296/7-youtube-channels-to-watch-when-you-need-to-kill-some-time) and a mention on /Film (https://www./theme-park-bits-disneyland-childcare-shocking-water-park-news-and-more/), I don't know if there's an exact metric of what makes an Internet videomaker "notable" but i can see we need to work out something Sheila1988 (talk) 20:46, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I don't think this will ever be a sufficient BLP because of the credible chance of harm to the subject. In particular, while not necessarily disputing notability, it looks to me right now as though additional information that doesn't violate WP:NOR and meets notability criteria for inclusion in the article will pretty much always also increase the chance of harm to the subject, and so should not be included per WP:BLP - Astrophobe (talk) 07:29, 9 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Echoing what's been said above, given Ms. Nicholson's questionable notability and own personal uneasiness with the article, I believe delation for the time being is the proper course of action. If she becomes more notable in the future, I think an article could be remade, but given the current situation it seems unnecessary. If a new article is made at any point, it should definitely be monitored carefully. ViolaCola (talk) 01:38, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - While I would agree that the subject is notable, they have requested deletion. We have precedent for complying with these requests, see CGP Grey and edits around his name. While this would not technically be a G7 speedy (as she is not the author of the article), we also have the Speedy Deletion criteria for authors who request a page be deleted. In the CGP Grey case, we as editors maintain Grey's privacy because we're decent human beings (sometimes). In its current form, there are very few WP:RS with WP:SIGCOV to make this viable in the long-term. I agree with Astrophobe's assessment above. Nicholson has a variety of published articles and mainstream mentions, but to get the type of information that we get on other BLP candidates would involve a level of invasion of privacy that would at the very least violate the spirit of WP:NOR. I know that the intentions of Sheila1988, MadScientistX11, No1lakersfan and TwilightFluttershy are good (I hope), and this is not a suggestion that Nicholson is not talented or notable in Youtube spaces, but we should consider if this is really worth the amount of personal strain that this may cause to the subject of the article, and how much reliable information could theoretically be obtained without violating her privacy. Bkissin (talk) 00:51, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete We could perhaps prevent the article from being a tool for stalkers — indefinitely semi-protect it, etc. — but deletion is simpler, and her wiki-notability is at most borderline. The available sourcing does not demonstrate that having an article on Nicholson is necessary to serve the public interest. (Unlike Lindsay Ellis, say, who is a Hugo nominee, received a lengthy profile in Wired, and so forth, the news stories "about" Nicholson are basically tweets quoted with stuff in the margins.) XOR'easter (talk) 21:25, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete based on WP:PERSON. This was not as clear-cut a case as I expected; I'm basing it on this revision, as noted above, which had 22 footnotes. It does not appear to me that there is enough coverage from independent reliable sources focused on Nicholson herself. Please note, I'm not arguing that this is a grey area in which we should act in accordance with her preferences; rather, it seems to me that regardless of the request, this is a subject that does not meet our guidelines for inclusion. It's possible that I'm missing something; a well-formed "keep" vote would need to include a list of several reliable sources, with significant focus on her (as opposed to merely quoting her). The quotes-as-an-expert help, but in the absence of anything besides the Washington Post article that are substantially about her or her work or focus on her beyond a short quotation, and in strong publications, this should be a "delete." -Pete Forsyth (talk) 00:58, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If the matter is resolved so be it but a lot of people are talking about her relevance or lack there of, she does have two published articles on Playboy.com https://www.playboy.com/read/bert-ernie-sesame-street-gay and https://www.playboy.com/read/disney-princess-problems-kristen-bell I don't think anyone mentioned these so just FYI. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TwilightFluttershy (talkcontribs) 07:41, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Remove the BLP-inappropriate content, and this article is just "Jenny Nicholson makes videos, mostly about Star Wars and Disney". Not notable, and there is not enough information to support an article beyond a stub. Smurrayinchester 12:47, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

GNG fail. I came across this article when it was much larger and contained much more puffery. I cut a significant amount of material, and along the way realised that this is essentially a puff-up job on a non-notable artist. Yes, you can find one or two profiles out there, but the vast majority of coverage is insignificant, as is most of what is claimed. Virtually all aspects were puffed up. The main editor of the page has persistently restored the the puffed-up version and removed notability tags and the like over a number of years.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 20:36, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Non-notable artist does not meet WP:ARTIST or WP:GNG. Two of the citations in the article are non-neutral, in that the "online gallery" www.lightspacetime.art list of "Top 25 artists" is of artists in their own online gallery (thus a financial COI). The other questionable citation is the one in Southwest Art - it's a special section where artists or their galleries can purchase space in the magazine for promotional purposes. The National Sculpture Awards citation is a press release listing many artists. Nom is accurate - the article is a promotional puff-piece. Netherzone (talk) 01:36, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Though I admit the possibility of WP:TOOSOON, my humble assertion is that perhaps this artist's record of exhibitions qualifies her for notability. I am not interested in a "puff piece" as asserted above. My only goal is to make this an honest, legitimate article. This article is currently being judged entirely via its remaining content. Deletions performed immediately before coming to "article for deletion" removed better evidence of the artist's notability. I've included several citations below (in external link format for now) that might help substantiate notability in the absence of content in the article. "...vast majority is insignificant". Not sure if the reviewers here are familiar with the organizations represented here, but these are not "insignificant" exhibitions, but rather some of the most prestigious art orgs in the US. Many have WP articles themselves. Please disregard the Southwest Art and lightspacetime articles. Happy to have them removed. These are the important ones.
    • To User:Bearian: perhaps this link helps resolve the questions of this artist's inclusion in the permanent collection in Catania (see [1])
    • Special Honors (ARC, MEAM and Portrait Society of America are world-class art orgs)
    • Temporary Exhibitions: The artist has exhibited her work in numerous museums on a temporary basis, admitted by jury selection/invitation. These links were formerly included in the article (in WP citation format), but deleted in the prelude to tagging the article for deletion:
    • Also appears in media - these are better than the articles listed on the current page:

I think you might have made a typo above when you said "most prestigious art orgs in the US"; it is plain that these are not very prestigious at all. That's the core of the notability problem (as well as the fact that these are mostly low-calibre member shows and open-call exhibitions). When you pack an article full of low-calibre sources, it looks puffed up. We deal all the time with notable artists, and they do not show generally at the California Arts Club. They show at major museums regularly, and in notable galleries. All in all, there are one or two items above that are passable, but it's not enough. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 20:24, 11 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
about the organizations where she exhibits; click to show
    • California Art Club: Highly respected and one of the most active arts organizations in California (founded in 1909), promoting representational art in all forms. Their juried exhibitions (in part by curators of the museums venues) are held at significant museums across the state (e.g. Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History). They select notable artists nationwide, and attract significant public viewership and known art patrons and collectors. Ms. Stuart is also a jury-elected member at CAC.
    • National Arts Club: Founded in 1898 to "stimulate, foster, and promote public interest in the arts and to educate the American people in the fine arts". A survey of the former membership on WP indicates noteworthy artist representation. The 121st Catharine Lorillard Wolfe Art Club juried exhibition was held there as a benefit to the Metropolitan Museum, where a member of their Board of Trustees was co-master-of-ceremonies.
    • Salmagundi Club: A fine arts center founded in 1871, and another active supporter of the fine arts, also with notable membership, per WP.
    • MEAM is a highly prestigious museum in Barcelona, with a focus on contemporary figurative art. They hold an exhibition annually, Figurativas, that is highly competitive, with broad, notable international participation on the jury (e.g. Odd Nerdrum). They are also affiliated with the Spanish Artelibre Gallery, which also represents Ms. Stuart [18].
    • Art Renewal Center is an organization specializing in and promoting contemporary realism and the 21st century representational art movement. Their annual ARC Salon competition is "the largest and most prestigious competition in the world for realist artists painting, sculpting and drawing today". Finalists and winners are considered to be at the pinnacle of this artform. Their board reflects serious depth and credibility.
    • Portrait Society of America: Founded in 1998. Formed as an "educational organization dedicated to furthering the traditions of fine art portraiture and figurative art through programs and publications."
  • Jury selection, achieved over a broad list of reputable organizations (as this artist has done), is an indication of notability built on artistic merit. This process should tend to remove bias that might otherwise be present under a single exhibition or a single organization.
  • Addressing the rationale for having at one point added numerous links to this article: in my WP inexperience, it wasn't clear how to substantiate notability in the face of assertions to the contrary. My response was to add content to counter those claims. If this was the wrong approach, I stand corrected. My aim was not "puffery", as asserted above.
  • Bottom line, this forum is meant to determine whether this artist meets the WP notability criteria. I posit that the criteria listed in WP:ARTIST are excellent guides, but not 100% objective. My opinion is that the artist satisfies 4c ("The person's works have (c) won significant critical attention"), Her work is also in the permanent collection in the Museo Arte Contemporanea Sicilia in Catania, Sicily.

What is the WP process for breaking this deadlock? If we don't get additional input by Sunday (7 days), how will this be resolved? According to WP policy, this is not a vote but seeks "rough consensus". If I am the sole proponent of keeping the article, is "rough consensus" achieved? Also, from WP, deletion should be considered an option of last resort ("If editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page"), with improvement a preferred option ("When in doubt, don't delete"). I would appreciate guidance here on process, and am looking forward to coming to a resolution. Thank you kindly for your attention.

  • Press coverage from WSAW TV news of the Wausau competition [19]. Media discuss the level of competition involved. The artist's work is prominently featured (female bust).

Pdtompkins: you ask "If I am the sole proponent of keeping the article, is "rough consensus" achieved?" The answer is "Yes". If all involved impartial editors have argued for deletion, then deletion wins. But if you can improve the article, by citing (in the article, not here) better independent evidence of notability, please go ahead and do that. Maproom (talk) 22:52, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I take your point. I have now clarified that. The Washington Post, New York Times and other INDEPTH coverage credits him with creating a new genre of film by reinventing nature documentaries, i.e. that his redesign of a run-of-the mill French nature documentary with dramatic music, and a great voice over gave the MILL nature flick drama and narrative drive, turning ho-hum-wanna-learn-about-birds into the prize winning blockbuster March of the Penguins. Creating a new genre (which is also charaterized by the fact that it refrains from showing much "nature red and tooth and claw" footage) is a CREATIVE act.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:13, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jovanmilic97 Yes I'm aware of the guidelines, but you're not ever going to find all the sources and in this case I don't even speak german. So I mean look at it, all these add ons from different companies, you gotta give them the benefit of the doubt that it was notable. So next I look to see if anyone is benefiting, ya know is it promotional, are the references padding someones SEO, all that. This is a videogame from 2011, so no one is benefitting. So I'd say keeping it would benefit this work as it's a valid piece of info that's probably notable. ThatLawStudent (talk) 20:53, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete as a non-notable video game failing WP:GNG with no multiple reliable independent in-depth sources, such as WP:VG/RS. German Wiki has a review: [28]; 4players.de looks like a magazine, so I would say it's likely reliable. There is a review from multiplayer.it [29], which looks good, but VG/RS never established reliability of the source one way or another. According to GR, there is a PC Gamer UK review, which I can't seem to locate in the Nov 2011 issue. I want to say more sources exist, but are not cited yet. In any case, the article is not based on these anyway, so it would be a full rewrite anyway, so deleting is not an issue. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 09:22, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The author also created the deleted 2016 version and curiously they never edited anything else except to recreate the page this year. This is basically covert promotion weaved with a lot of weasel words, unreliable sources and questionable students magazine. No any independent claim of notability.– Ammarpad (talk) 15:28, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be the subject of enough reliable source media coverage to clear WP:GNG, but "subject of enough reliable source media coverage to clear GNG" is not what the sources here are demonstrating. There are nine footnotes here, but one of them is a reduplication of one of the others, so there are really only eight sources — but one just leads to an "access denied" lockout, leaving me unable to verify anything about it at all; two are directly affiliated primary sources published by his own alma mater, not independent coverage that would help to establish notability; two are glancing namechecks of his existence as a giver of soundbite in an article about something else, not coverage which has him as its subject; and three are bylined pieces of his own writing about other subjects, not coverage which has him as its subject. As always, the notability test is not just the ability to verify that he exists — he is not a notable journalist just because his own journalism metaverifies its own existence — but none of these sources establish that he's notable at all. There's also a likely conflict of interest of some sort, if the creator's only contributions to Wikipedia have been multiple attempts to make this article happen — there's no hard evidence as to whether the creator is Eta Uso himself or a friend or colleague or family member of his, but those would all still be conflicts of interest anyway.

Although this comment has already been struck, I just want to respond to it anyway so that the fallacy doesn't spread: Wikipedia does not judge notability based on the language of the sources. If a reference is to a genuinely reliable source, then it counts toward notability regardless of whether it's written in English, French, German, Urdu, Swahili or Farsi. The problem here is a lack of reliable or notability-supporting sources, not a lack of English-language footnotes. Bearcat (talk) 15:28, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. The notability test for a mayor is not just the ability to offer technical verification that he exists, by citing a directory entry and the routinely expected reportage of municipal election results — no matter how big the place he's mayor of may be, the notability test for all mayors is always still the ability to write and reliably source some genuinely substantive content about their political impact as mayor. Even in North America, a mayor would still not get an automatic presumption of notability just because a one-line statement that he exists, the end, could technically be referenced to routine verification of the vote totals: the notability test would still hinge on how much substance we could write about his mayoralty.

not my field, but it would serm to me that they have not done enough significant work to be notability DGG ( talk ) 07:52, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment, Just to make a note, I created this article. so obviously this goes as a comment because of bias! Having a look at the overall category of Australian hip hop record labels. they are either poorly cited or have no citations at all. defiantly one notable artist on the label also the co founder. Multiple other artists with articles one from the ARIA Charts also they are not just national but international. fits the bill for notability imo. More than happy to have further discussion. Also just a quick edit and also source for "poorly cited labels" Hydrofunk Records is an example. On further reading there are other labels after having a quick check. If this article is deemed to be deleted it would be a great help to move it to a draft so I can continue to develop it. | Passportgang (talk) 12:10, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Non notable vanity label for non notable artist. lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Label does not inherit notability from an artist appearing on the ARIA charts (a claim not backed up). Claims multiple other artists with pages but article only lists one, the founder who shall be going to afd. Label is not notable because other bad articles exist. duffbeerforme (talk) 03:40, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment, "ARIA charts (a claim not backed up)" Did you check that citation? There is no claim on the article of "appearing on the ARIA charts" There is a claim of "being an official ARIA Club Chart DJ" with a citation directly from ARIA. Passportgang (talk) 06:01, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You linked to the article on the charts themselves, implying the artist on those charts. And that artist does not have an article here. You claim "official ARIA Club Chart DJ". No such thing. Regardless neither would make this label notable. Yes I see that bias you speak of above. According to your user page you first started editing as User:Doughrelated (WP:SPAMNAME). You really should declare conflicts of interest when part of the label itself as that username strongly suggests. Also you should only edit with one account. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:30, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete Tend to agree with nom that while there are plenty of articles on the topic (this seems to be a discipline where you are expected to publish 12 times a year...), about 90% seem to be by the project principals - Engelhardt, Schmidt, Lehmann.

@DMacks:What would you like to merge? Everything is sourced to an unreliable source (Emporis.com).--Rusf10 (talk) 15:16, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't look at the sources themselves. Neutral facts like like building-height of exceptionally tall buildings can probably be sourced to local documents. But since only the top three on this page are within the top 50 of the state, there's not even anything to add there. Emporis being a poor but only source is a widespread situation among Category:Lists of tallest buildings in the United States pages (not that I think it's a good or supportable situation, just observing).

  • Delete - The only source being used is Emporis, which is not a reliable source. I was not able to find any other reliable sources, and it seems that no one else in this discussion was successful at locating any either. Thus, merging improperly sourced information to other articles does not seem appropriate. I would not be too opposed to a Redirect to some of the various potential targets mentioned above, such as List of tallest buildings in Louisiana, however as I don't consider this to be an especially plausible search term, its not a position I would personally endorse.

  • Comment coverage of mergers, business dev. and so on is routine information promogulated by the company and its designated employees - this is not independently sourced coverage. It is the company tooting its own horn - fails corpdepth. Also, the coverage in the New York Times and the New York Post are not featured articles but more business announcements generated by the company (a partnership between this company and some other company).
In the New York Times, coverage is in the Deal Book section (and not the news section) which is designed to disseminate company information. None of this is independent coverage as required by GNG, NCORP, and CORPDEPTH.

  • Delete per nom. No sustainable coverage. Fails WP:BASIC and WP:NPOL as well as all notability guidelines. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 01:56, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Just to be clear, some aspects of the nominator's reasoning aren't actually applicable to this. We do not have any requirement that a person who held political office in the 1970s and 1980s still has to show up in web-accessible media coverage dated within the 2010s — as long as the cited sources provide sufficient evidence that the person clears our notability standards, we are allowed to base an article on archived print-only coverage that existed only within the person's own time, and do not need to show that their coverage kept going into the Google era. And The Globe and Mail is also not a "local" newspaper in the sense that normally applies to articles about local political officials — it's a national newspaper that concentrates primarily on national news. It does happen to be based in Toronto by virtue of Toronto being Canada's largest city and the home of most of its national media operations, but it is not a publisher of purely local-interest Toronto news in the "house fire on Pape Avenue kills family of five" sense.
    The actual problem here, rather, is simply that this was written 13 years ago, at a time when our notability standards for local political figures were much less well-developed than they are now, and those standards have since been considerably tightened up. As WP:NPOL now stands, neither being commissioner of planning and development in a suburban town nor being an unsuccessful candidate for the town's board of control constitute an automatic pass of NPOL #2 — and he was not charged with or convicted of a crime, so this falls afoul of WP:PERP (another rule which didn't exist yet in 2006), and literally just makes him a WP:BLP1E rather than a person who would pass the ten-year test as a subject of enduring internationalized public interest. So this was a good faith creation under the rules that pertained in 2006, but he doesn't have a strong enough notability claim to be retained under the rules that apply in 2019.
    We don't just automatically keep an article about everybody who technically surpasses an arbitrary number of footnotes: GNG is also a question of evaluating the context of what a person is getting coverage for, but receiving nationalized coverage in the context of an untried and unconvicted corruption allegation is not a context that clinches the permanent encyclopedic notability of a person who would otherwise fail NPOL. If he'd been found guilty, it would be a different story. Bearcat (talk) 14:12, 7 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
