- Redirect to Rajput clans would seem to be a decent solution? If someone wants to write more information about Dor Rajputs, presumably it can go there? If a huge amount of information about Dor Rajputs is written, then the article can be branched out again. Apples&Manzanas (talk) 14:35, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

DeleteI was the nominator of these articles for delition. There could be numerous sources that may have passing mention I.e one word reference to these caste as all of these are minor clan of Rajput caste, a notable caste group. But all those sources donot have info (other than those indicating it as a part of Rajput caste) to write a seperate article. As any uninvolved person can see that we donot have sources to indicate wat do they eat? What are the Culture and traditiona etc etc of these castes. That's why all these articles were one or two line article for years and some of them were tagged as not satisfying WP:GNG....As per WP:NOTDICTIONARY these shouldn't be created as seperate article. I would like to advice Jethwarp to include them in Rajput Clans with minor info we can derive from the sources.Heba Aisha (talk) 14:54, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

- Keep - I'm seeing quite a few hits on Google Books which seem to mention the Dor Rajputs in Medieval India and what land they held and their part in various religious struggles in their area. The article needs work, but it's not an issue of notability from what I can tell. - Aoidh (talk) 03:28, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

This article is about a non-notable book, and has no sources. I tried to search for sources, and all of them I found were either trivial mentions, or just places to buy this book. In addition, the tone of the article is very poetic/idiomatic, which violates the Manual of Style. JJP...MASTER![talk to] JJP... master? 20:07, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

- Delete - Per the criteria at WP:NBOOK, which require at least non-trivial professional reviews. It's rather odd that this book escaped notice at a time when Metallica was heavily in the news, with a recent album and movie. It must have been poorly promoted, as it received no reliable reviews that I can find. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 04:06, 10 January 2021 (UTC)

The book notes:
Berlinger's account of the making of the movie is an invaluable accompaniment, despite its deadly earnest tone; we learn how hacked off both Megadeth's Dave Mustaine and therapist (sorry, "performance enhancement coach") Phil Towle were with the results, as well as the shameful emotions of the film-makers themselves, hoping that "something bad (but not too bad)" would happen to make the project interesting.
- Morast, Robert (January 2005). "Metallica: This Monster Lives". Library Journal. Vol. 130, no. 1. p. 414. ISSN 0363-0277.
The review notes:
This companion to the acclaimed Metallica documentary that Berlinger codirected with Bruce Sinofsky is burdened by the expectation that it should reveal even more about the band than the film did. In this sense, Berlinger doesn't deliver, wasting too many pages justifying his editing decisions and philosophizing on objectivity.

The review notes:
In an absorbing narrative, Berlinger (with rock journalist Milner) describes just what it took--the myriad decisions and risks--to turn nearly 1,600 hours of footage into a story that delivers an emotional impact that is all the greater for being true. This book should be required reading for aspiring filmmakers because it reveals the huge difference between turning the cameras on a contrived situation that purports to be "reality" and making a cinema verité or nonfiction film.

"Metallica" is derived from the unprecedented access granted by the band to Berlinger and his long-time production partner, Bruce Sinofsky. Tome will include exclusive photographs, some taken by Berlinger."

The review notes:
But the book gradually takes on the momentum of a suspense novel, and triumphs because of the commitment and fearlessness of Metallica. More a book about filmmaking than about music, "This Monster Lives" shows that tenacious reporting can still produce great narratives, even about the most mega of megaplatinum rock stars.

The review notes:
Filmmaker Berlinger takes us even deeper into the inner sanctum he plumbed in the emotionally charged documentary Metallica: Some Kind of Monster. Here, we find out that Berlinger himself was on the emotional skids after making the horrific flop Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 and how Metallica's management and record label nearly short-circuited Monster.

The review notes:
Feeling that the film didn't capture all the drama that he witnessed, Sinofsky has further delved into the subject in this book, a fascinating look at the logistics of making an album and the dysfunctional family that bands (and filmmaking partnerships) can become.
- Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria says:
Cunard (talk) 07:01, 11 January 2021 (UTC)A book is notable if it verifiably meets, through reliable sources, at least one of the following criteria:
- The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself. This can include published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries, bestseller lists, and reviews. This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy, or other publications where the author, its publisher, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the book.

I pride myself on rescuing messes (see my recent work at Viennese cuisine), but this is just a resume, and would take a huge amount of work. It's basically a resume, and in 2021, everybody knows we don't do that, so WP:AGF does not apply. He just hasn't done anything especially notable, and the awards he's won are equivalent to the little pieces of paper in my two portfolios. There's little coverage in reliable sources.

Fails WP:BASIC, WP:ANYBIO, and WP:MUSICBIO. No indication of awards or charted songs, and a paucity of biographical details in secondary sources.

- [2] - A two-paragraph biography on what appears to be a user-submitted website called "Earmilk".
- [3] - A three-paragraph introduction in "The Fader" to a video by Chris Yonge, which contains no biographical information.

- @User:Magnolia677: Here are why the references you mentioned above meet WP: BASIC, ANYBIO and MUSICBIO
- * 1 - is not "a primary source interview on what appears to be a for-pay promotional website, and is the source for most of the biographical details in the article." - It is, in fact, a secondary source publications website of creative individuals who work in the field of advertising / creative industries.
- * 2 "Earmilk" actually has a wiki page here at Earmilk and is not a "user-submitted website" but in fact is an award-winning music journal which is written by a hired team and not just any random user.
- * 3 - The Fader is a reputable source which has information on "Toronto-based artist Chris Yonge"'s new single "CASH" contributing to his music career.
- * 4 Exclaim! is also a reputable secondar source which contains information on a single released by him which also contributes to his "music career" . TwinTurbo (talk) 14:23, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

- TwinTurbo I admire your fight for this article, I really do, but "bludgeoning us to death" with your repeated information is disruptive. You said your points and I am willing to accept we disagree. It is my view, as I stated and as indicated below, that the sources you call reliable are not, in fact, reliable and the sources you say give the subject "significant" coverage do not live up to the definition of that term. That does not take away from the regional, national or global significance of the subject to those who like him. Only that the criteria here determines that the subject of this article is not notable for inclusion here. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 21:45, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

- Please allow me to summarize the 10 sources mentioned above:
- [17] - A three-paragraph introduction in "The Fader" to a video by Chris Yonge. This source contains no biographical information.
- [18] - A two-paragraph article in "Earmilk", which contains the following biographical information (spelling error included):
CHRIS YONGE, who has been slowly grinding within the chilly city's booming music industry since the age of 19, when he decided to fully dive into his passion by running a recording studio where he fully honed his engineering & rapping skills... He now 25-year old upstart is now set to deliver the follow up to his excellent debut NEGATIVES LP, a three track EP entitled SS17 that has Chris exploring a much more reflective and Toronto-inpspired sound. Today EARMILK has been given the opportunity to debut the second single off of the project, a nostalgic slow-burner entitled 19 that has the rising artist reminiscing on his humble beginnings, assisted by fellow Toronto MC Kaelen.
- [19] - A user-submitted blog post on "Banger of the Day".
- [20] - An article in "The Hype Magazine" which says the following about Chris Yonge: "Featuring rising star Chris Yonge". That's it!
- [21] - A user-submitted blog post on "Banger of the Day".
- [22] - A review of a Chris Yonge album on a site called "Daily Chiefers", a music-submission site where a reviewer decides which submissions to feature. This particular review was written by "Carrier" who has made "7724 POSTS" on the site.
- [23] - An introduction to a Chris Yonge video in "Exclaim", which contains no biographical information. It features a quote about the video by Chris Yonge himself, which leans this source towards being a primary source.
- [24] - A user-submitted blog post on "Banger of the Day".
- [25] - A press release which mentions his name once.
- [26] - A user-submitted blog post on "Banger of the Day". Magnolia677 (talk) 20:49, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- Please allow me to summarize the 10 sources mentioned above:
- First and foremost, thank you for your admiration ARoseWolf, but not once have I stated to "bludgeon anyone to death" nor is it my intention. I am merely engaging in discussion. And Magnolia677, Earmilk is a reputable secondary source on the artist (a spelling mistake does not make it any less reliable). To say the Exclaim! reference has no biographical info is false. It contains points like:

- First and foremost, thank you for your admiration ARoseWolf, but not once have I stated to "bludgeon anyone to death" nor is it my intention. I am merely engaging in discussion. And Magnolia677, Earmilk is a reputable secondary source on the artist (a spelling mistake does not make it any less reliable). To say the Exclaim! reference has no biographical info is false. It contains points like:
- Also, a quote form the artist in a passage does not equate the source to being a primary source. Exclaim is a secondary source and a reputable one too. As with Fader, Hype, BroadwayWorld, newswire. Although it may be a sentence or two, they are still also reputable secondary sources which show mention to the musical career section of his biography. There are others mentioned in the article which is contributing to his biography. He definitely meets WP:NM 1, as the sources mentioned here are published works that are written by somebody else about the musician. . TwinTurbo (talk) 22:35, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- Ah yes, the "Broadway World" source, which states: "working with producer Chris Yonge", and absolutely nothing more about this person. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:11, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- Not saying its the strongest source, but his work as a producer is still a valid reference to be included in the article to support his notability. . TwinTurbo (talk) 23:30, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- A source like that could only serve to bolster notability once it is established. It can not be used to confirm or affirm notability. --ARoseWolf 18:47, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- The key word or words in all of this is "mention", "mentions" and "mentioned". Significant coverage is not mentions. Also, if multiple (numerical) sources repeat the same information almost verbatim as other sources they are not considered multiple (intellectual) sources used for notability criteria, even if each source is reliable and secondary. They would all be considered ONE source. That is straight from the notes on the criteria itself. --ARoseWolf 16:34, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

- Keep - As it's written it's not the strongest article in terms of sources, but sources are there and are in the article I just wish it had some stronger sources with more coverage. On the NowToronto article about the cancelling of the Fringe festival I see reference to a Yonge-Dundas Square, but no reference to Chris Yonge, is he mentioned in that article? Otherwise I don't see anything verifying that he was supposed to play there. If it does mention him and I've overlooked it I'd say that would be yet another good reference to show notability. - Aoidh (talk) 03:42, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

- Keep the current sourcing in the article is not good but I found independent reviews of his books here and here as well as this piece about him. I didn’t do an exhaustive search and other book reviews are likely. Mccapra (talk) 04:58, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per Mccapra, I agree that with some poking around the sources are there. - Astrophobe (talk) 05:04, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Reply @Mccapra and Astrophobe:: The above reviews are about the books, and do not contain SIGCOV about the author. If the reviews had SIGCOV addressing the author directly and indepth they would count towards the author's notability, but they do not. The proper standard for an author is WP:AUTHOR. Authors do not inherit notability from their works, except in rare circumstances covered in #3 in WP:AUTHOR, "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." // Timothy :: talk 05:17, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- His books have been reviewed many times (it's trivial to find more reviews), his current affairs blogging is cited widely in major Indian media outlets where it is described as being widely followed (New Indian Express, Hindustan Times, The Week, etc), and passing GNG is always sufficient. I continue to believe that with some poking around the sources are there. - Astrophobe (talk) 05:26, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Comment This is also a BLP. BLPs should strictly follow sourcing and notability guidelines. // Timothy :: talk 05:18, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- This is true. And the solution is to bring pages up to that standard, not to delete pages about notable subjects. - Astrophobe (talk) 05:26, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Comment hi your ping prompted me to look again and I easily found two more good reviews of his books here and [27] so the subject looks like a pass under WP:AUTHOR to me. Mccapra (talk) 05:32, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete Tentative delete: There's some editors who suggest that this article should be kept on the basis of book reviews. I would counter however, that wp:anybio generally requires significant coverage about the subject themselves, as opposed to book reviews or reviews of their work, unless their work has been recognized as foundational in a field, or "part of the enduring historical record in a field". WP:Creative would probably be the closest guidelines for this subject, but it also requires that "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.", which I cannot find evidence for beyond the book reviews (that are generally not considered substantial coverage).

This would usually be a draftify due to being a very undersourced BLP but, since an identical copy already exists in draft, that's not an option. It looks like this got copied and pasted over after the draft declined.
Whilst his number of subscribers would indicate that he should be notable, I'm not finding that much coming up when searching his name. Firstly, I found this, which, assuming it is RS, is quite good. The second best I found was this but it just looks like a transcript of one of his videos. Lastly, I found this brief article in a reliable source.
I would say that he does not pass WP:BIO but I'm happy to be proved wrong. Spiderone 09:00, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

I can't find a thing about this technical school in Guyana. Website is broken, FB is inactive and useless. The citations included are all-what do you call it when they're only tangentially related to the subject just to make the article look well referenced? Like, they link to an RS about an organization, but no mention of the topic therein? I noticed the original author is SPA and had this article rejected at AfC a few times, and I don't see this ever actually passing?

- Comment. I don't know what you call it either, but it's the sort of thing where someone might write, "He graduated from the University of Michigan[1] and then became an agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation.[2]" -- in other words, the citations prove only that the University of Michigan and the FBI exist, which was never in doubt. The sourcing here is quite poor. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:41, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- Exactly, Metropolitan90. The closest thing I found was a template for "irrelevant citation", but that's specific to a single citation and not as a chronic issue over the entire page. It seems like a tactic for editors 'desperate' to give their page legitimacy, like fan-cruft or COI, and sort of in the same vein as overlinking. Either way, in this case, even a 'one time' name drop undermines it's GNG. Estheim (talk) 13:23, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

This is a partial WP:POVFORK of Milankovitch cycles; basically a commentary based on two additional papers not used in the main article. The relevant text could usefully be merged into Milankovitch cycles (in shortened form). Rather than just merging and redirecting, I'm putting this up here because that would result in an unsuitable redirect - "Milankovich's theory revisited" is not a sensible search term (apart from the misspelling of "Milankovitch"...). So I propose to do merge & delete redirect in one wash here.

Speedy closeas the proposed action produces WP:COPYVIO. Merging must retain a redirect from where the merged content came from for attribution. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:04, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- @The Bushranger: alright, sooo - what do you suggest instead? Merge then keep the weird redirect in perpetuity? By that reasoning, I gather no redirect from a merge could ever be deleted, even if it's named My opinion on Miklothingummy's theory... --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 23:16, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- Add: based on the Salomonic solution I was presented with a while back in a similar situation [30] - draftify then keep a {{R with history}} redirect from draft space? --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 23:19, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- That could work, certainly. Alternatively, just keeping the redirect for attribution at its current location isn't necessarily wrong; redirects are (as it is said) cheap. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:29, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Despite numerous sources that question his mysterious, sports-related role in the Trump administration, "Public Liaison Assistant in the Office of Public Liaison to the President" is an exceedingly-minor role that does not warrant a Wikipedia page or pass WP:NPOL (the closest notability guideline for political advisors).

- Strong Keep. He clearly meets wp:GNG. Because he "has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." It's totally irrelevant why he received such coverage. And nobody can disagree with the fact that his many articles in reliable sources are independent of him. It's totally irrelevant whether or not he meets NPOL, or whether he is related to a notable person - we have zero reason to even consider those approaches, if the subject meets GNG. 2603:7000:2143:8500:205B:C99C:2B6E:D887 (talk) 23:09, 16 January 2021 (UTC) — 2603:7000:2143:8500:205B:C99C:2B6E:D887 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- I'm not an SPA. As perhaps you know. Because I noticed that after I disagreed with you in an unrelated deletion review of another article yesterday, and then edited this article for the first time today (one day later), you within two hours nominated this article for deletion. I'm the same editor (my cable service of its own volition changes my IP address periodically, as is the case w a number of us).
- In that deletion review, you likewise asserted that an article that clearly met GNG (as User:SmokeyJoe and user:DGG also believe, if I understand their comments there correctly), should not exist at WP. There, as well, I was of the view expressed here by John Broughton who wrote: "The Wikipedia article cites numerous sources where [the subject] is the subject of an article, not just mentioned in passing .... That's the basis of notability. Notability isn't determined by a Wikipedia editor's opinion that someone occupies a "minor role". I think in this AfD, as in that discussion, you mistakenly believe that even if a subject of an article meets GNG, it should be deleted if it doesn't meet some secondary test, or is not significant in your personal view. But that's not what GNG says.2603:7000:2143:8500:8C2A:84CA:D15B:3FEC (talk) 03:33, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- I believe that IPs should WP:Register if they want to get involved in projectspace discussions, including deletion discussions. I believe the community should make a rule about it and enforce it.

Same with contributing elsewhere - if the community does not want IPs to contribute, just adopt a community rule, and of course every IP will not contribute. As to my comments - I would hope they would not be considered on the basis of who I am, but as to whether they properly consider wp rules. If a nom misunderstands them, and an IP understands them, I would hope the close would focus not on who is registered, but who has been more true to the words and spirit of GNG. --2603:7000:2143:8500:8C2A:84CA:D15B:3FEC (talk) 04:39, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- (Not the guys you were talking to.) I have no beef with IP participation, but I think if you have a dynamic IP and want to be recognizable to other editors, it's best to make an account. I also wonder what implications the mandatory IP masking move will have for IP participation, and think it's safest for active IP editors to register in case everything goes haywire.

- Strong keep. The Wikipedia articles cites numerous sources where Andrew Giuliani is the subject of an article, not just mentioned in passing - sources like The Atlantic, The New York Times, NY Daily News, The Wall Street Journal, NY Post, CNBC, and ESPN. That's the basis of notability. Notability isn't determined by a Wikipedia editor's opinion that someone occupies a "minor role". Nor is WP:NOTINHERITED a guideline - it is just advice about what is a bad argument, for those participating in deletion discussions. So it's also irrelevant - no one here is arguing that Andrew Giuliani should have a Wikipedia article because of his father's importance. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 01:29, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

- Help? Nom just deleted the subject's actual title in the lede. Without good reason. Subject's title - as reflected by the RS that nom also deleted - is "Special Assistant to the President and Associate Director of the Office of Public Liaison." Nom replaced it with a significantly lesser title, which is not the title the subject now has. I wonder whether it is possible that that is unhelpful. Both for the article, and for this discussion.

- Redirect to List of Konami games (or alternatively delete). I did a search for it in Japanese (大人の女力検定), it just does not meet WP:GNG - the little coverage this game has in RSs does not constitute significant coverage. Inside Games basically just verifies that it exists along with a brief explanation of the premise; same with Dengeki Online ([31],[32]). Famitsu has no coverage whatsoever for it aside from an entry in its games database with publisher/release date/genre/etc. I could not find anything else.--AlexandraIDV 22:13, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. It's hard for Japanese educational/quiz games to meet WP:GNG due to the language barrier they have, and this game is no different.

- Redirect to the director, Anton Ernst. IMDb still lists this film as being in pre-production, with no distributor identified nor any live people as cast members. The filmmakers may have achieved the distinction of getting clearance from the James Dean estate to use a digital version of him in the film, but I don't see any evidence that they have actually filmed the movie yet, so WP:NFF applies. (This article identifies Magic City Films as the distributor, but that company has never distributed a feature film before, so presumably if the film is completed and released it will likely be in collaboration with a more established distribution company.) --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:56, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- Seeing as how this project's status is still up in the air and based on other proposals above, I suggest it is of best interest to first delete the draft article Draft:Finding Jack that redirects to Finding Jack, move the mainspace article to the draft, and then recreate the Finding Jack mainspace article as a redirect to the director Anton Ernst. That way, all of the edits done on the article so far are not lost. This would require a WP:Round robin move. Trailblazer101 (talk) 00:18, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

- That is not best advised as if something does come up about the film, it can be worked on in the draftspace with the edit history intact.

Merge the article is interesting and looking at the Second Life page, it doesn’t strike me as a completely unsuitable article for wikipedia.

- Keep A bus station of this age in a major city will obviously pass GNG because newspaper coverage was more comprehensive in this period. For example, “Big Plan For ’Buses. Leeds Scheme For Central Station” on p9 of the Leeds Mercury 2 June 1931. “Need in Leeds of a Central ’Bus Station.” on p5 of the Leeds Mercury 5 November 1932. “A Leeds 'Bus Station” on p8 of the Yorkshire Post and Leeds Intelligencer 23 July 1935.

- Very Light Merge to List of fictional politicians - There is not a single source currently being used in this list, and the vast majority of the entries here are very minor characters with little-to-no notability whatsoever. I was unable to locate any sources discussing the overall concept of "Fictional Australian Politicians" as a group or set, as well. The very small handful of individuals here that are actual blue-links to their own articles can be moved over to the main List of fictional politicians (which itself is in dire need of major cleanup of non-notable cruft) for navigational purposes, but that is about it.

- Merge - The first AfD was from 2007 and the reasons cited in the "Keep" votes seemed very superficial without a lot of elaboration. Per Rorshacma, if no one is able to demonstrate that there is enough coverage of the topic to satisfy WP:LISTN, then I don't see how it can remain a standalone article. However, I will concede that the scope of List of fictional politicians seems a bit too broad and abstract, and articles like that tend to become WP:OR sponges.

- Keep - I'm the guilty party who removed so many small-town-California prods yesterday (10 actually). Anyway...the nominator of this AfD mentioned there appears to be "a couple of farms", and it got me wondering...how many farms make a community? One? Probably not (bye bye Monowi, Nebraska!). Two? Maybe. indeed, I also see on Google Maps those "couple of farms", so maybe this is a populated place? GNIS (an "offical source") calls it a "populated place", and the criteria listed at WP:GEOLAND basically say it needs to be populated place to be notable. It's all good then?
- This Government of California publication calls Tyee City a "community".
- The Mad River Union in nearby Arcata, California writes often of Tyee City:
- Writing about fire services in the area... "The district provides fire service to the communities of McKinleyville, Arcata, Bayside, Jacoby Creek, Tyee City and Manila."
- Writing about a park near Tyee City... "adjacent landowners and residents of Tyee City – a micro-community near the park...".
- Here describing "scenic Tyee City". Magnolia677 (talk) 20:10, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
- Lol "micro-community". Don't misrepresent GEOLAND, which says it needs to be a legally recognized populated place to be notable (yes, incorporation as a legal municipality like Monowi counts!). Of course the breadth of this poorly drafted line has been debated, but you well know the GNIS's classifications are well-established to be crap and merely acknowledge it has appeared on a map at some point. But being a "community" or neighborhood–be it a subdivision or nearby farms–is not automatic notability. In this case there does appear to be enough coverage to satisfy GEOLAND#2.

- To pass GEOLAND, it must be legally recognized, which GNIS does not do. It is a database of names that have appeared on maps.

- Keep It's hard to determine notability for people outside of the anglo-sphere, so notability of figures should be considered through that lens. She was named Woman of the Year by the prime minister of tanzania, and was a member of the Tanzanian Parliament, inherently meeting NPOL. Also given a lifetime achievement award by Tanzanian Women of Achievement. This search indicates a fair bit of coverage in the Tanzania Daily News (via AllAfrica.com and ProQuest), including an article describing her as a
Prominent retired teacher and former Member of Parliament Maria Kamm
. She also comes up in books ([39], [40]) and is even mentioned in American media ([41], [42]). I think the summation of the coverage is enough to meet GNG. There is likely more coverage in Swahili. AFD is not cleanup. Eddie891 Talk Work 16:47, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

I can't find a consensus at all, plus the article has changed somewhat during the debate, making it even harder.

Keepstrike double !vote Updates to the information and references are ongoing. Re sources that are "not reliable" -- some references are from The Obelisk has its own (uncontested) Wikipedia page. Other references include Rolling Stone, Blabbermouth, Ghost Cult Magazine, and long-running underground metal sites such as The Sludgelord and Encyclopaedia Metallum. It appears that the call for deletion stems from a lack of familiarity with this particular metal subculture, especially given the updated references. Furthermore, keep in mind that a record label's purpose is to release and distribute music -- so while the organization itself may get less press coverage than the bands/artists it represents, it has a significant role in content creation and audience engagement within its particular subgenre. Ripple has released hundreds of musical works over the past decade in the doom/stoner genres, working with bands around the globe. A flag to improve citations would have been more appropriate for this article than a call for deletion.

- Trivial mentions in reliable sources are not sufficient to establish notability. A flag to improve citations doesn't apply to this article, since it hasn't been established that the company is notable in the first place. It appears that your argument boils down to the WP:LOCALFAME and WP:ITSOLD fallacies. Law15outof48 (talk) 16:06, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete The criteria for establishing notability for companies/organizations is WP:NCORP and applies a stricter interpretation of requirements than for other topics. In short, WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. That means, nothing that relies on company information or announcements or interviews, etc. So for a record company, I want to see articles *about* the record company, not about the artists or new releases, etc. None of the references in the article meet the criteria and having searched I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria. Topic fails GNG/WP:NCORP. HighKing 21:42, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

- I see the point about notability for an organization/company -- but in the case of a record label, the WP:MUS should be factored in as well. Furthermore, as some users noted, Ripple's role in an underground subculture may be harder to see from outside that subculture; Also, references from Decibel and others focus on the label itself. As part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Record Labels, this article should remain as an important label in the doom/stoner metal subculture.Jessiemay1984 (talk) 16:10, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Keepstrike double !vote In looking at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Record Labels, I found some interesting discussion about notability and sourcing. It appears that other users have run into similar debates. Here is an excerpt from that section, posted in 2019: "Record labels are not specifically covered with their own section in WP:MUSIC, and there is no consensus about how to do so (I attempted, once, and failed). WP:MUSIC does have language in the section on artists that gives the only real guidance about judging notability - length of operation and significance of roster, taken holistically. [...] There are very few people actively working on record label articles - I'm one of the most active, and most of what I do is watch over a bunch of them to ward off vandalism and overly-hasty deletion, rather than write new articles or work on sourcing." That was from Chubbles. The debate on this Ripple article is a perfect example of how unclear guidelines for record labels results in confusion and clearer guidelines are needed. If we look at "length of operation and significance of roster, taken holistically," Ripple has a significant role in a music subculture. In the spirit of Wikipedia:WikiProject Record Labels, to improve Wikipedia's record label coverage -- rather than deleting one article about a record label that has existed for over ten years and has put out many releases that meet WP:MUSIC notability criteria, perhaps efforts would be better spent on developing notability criteria that is specific to record labels. (Especially as this issue has come up before.)Jessiemay1984 (talk) 17:00, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- You voted twice, Jessiemay1984. Please strike through one of your votes so that it doesn't get counted twice.
- The guidelines are not unclear. WP:MUS does not apply to record labels, WP:ORGCRIT does. Saying that the page shouldn't be deleted because it and/or the company have been around for a while is the WP:ITSOLD fallacy: "Notability is not established by how long a thing has existed, or how far back in time a tradition may go, or how venerable the people are who are involved in it, or how yellowed the pages that once mentioned it." 'Significance of roster' is the WP:INHERITORG fallacy: "An organization is not notable merely because a notable person or event was associated with it." 'Ripple has a clear role in music subculture' is the WP:LOCALFAME fallacy. These fallacies do not sufficiently establish the company's notability. Wikipedia:WikiProject Record Labels are only for companies that have been demonstrated to be notable in the first place, which this company has not. Law15outof48 (talk) 17:14, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
- See Wikipedia:Five pillars -- "Wikipedia has policies and guidelines, but they are not carved in stone; their content and interpretation can evolve over time.

- Keep Article describes actively engaged recorded music label, publisher, distributor, and cultural entity in music genre and subgenre operating for over 10 years representing broad roster of active musicians and significant catalog of recordings. Ripple Music is clearly a long standing active entity on AllMusic. Ripple Music is clearly a long standing active entity on Discogs.com. WP:MUSIC indicates that many artists in repertoire would meet notable criteria, whether or not they themselves are represented with Wikipedia articles or entries. There is limited discussion indicating how to assess Notability for smaller and independent record labels and music publishers as culturally significant. Wikipedia Notability guidelines should not unintentionally bias toward "major" international corporate entities or certain "major" institutions. Discussion appears to contain Moving Goalposts when presented with notable references by invoking WP:INHERITORG, WP:ITSOLD, & WP:LOCALFAME to refute notability. These can continue to be leveraged to argumentum ad infinitum as invoked here, they would also apply to most genre or regional music organizations that exist to promote culture and artists. The page needs fixing not deletion. Krakan.silfursolin (talk) 09:16, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
- Amen! We need to improve Wikipedia record label coverage according to Wikipedia:Five Pillars rather than get hung up on circular arguments. Deleting the Ripple page does nothing to improve Wiki's music content, especially as the label's notability is being established through recent reference additions.

Just pointing out that there are new accounts on both sides of the discussion. Jessiemay1984 (talk) 18:29, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- Comment The applicable guideline is WP:NCORP and not WP:MUSIC. A lot of the accounts posting to Keep don't appear to understand the criteria for establishing notability for companies or are quoting from other guidelines which have different standards and are not applicable for companies. Here's a summary to help. The criteria for establishing notability for companies/organizations is WP:NCORP and applies a stricter interpretation of requirements than for other topics. In short, WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. That means, nothing that relies on company information or announcements or interviews, etc. Also nothing where there is "inherited" notability so the inference that they have signed notable acts only points to the notability of the act, not of the company that signed them. None of the references in the article meet the criteria and having searched I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria. If some of the Keep !voters can produce a couple of good references that they are sure meets WP:ORGIND and WP:CORPDEPTH, post them here. HighKing 12:49, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

- Save Pellegatti's page. As he is a celebrity in Italy and a valuable professional, the proposal for deletion is not understandable. The page could be improved or reviewed, for sure, but deletion would entail a huge lack of precious information. He eventually became a YouTouber, but he is and will always be a widely famous commentator and journalist, that's what he is. He's just a key component of Italian football world. Those collecting information about AC Milan, Italian commentators/journalists, Serie A, etcetera cannot avoid knowing Pellegatti. He must stay on Wikipedia, he's entitled to it. After saying that, please consider his page to be improved or rewied according to Wikipedia's policies and standards. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ITProSpecialOne (talk • contribs) 09:37, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
- Save Pellegatti's page. Dear John, speaking about Carletto Pellegatti as merely a Youtuber shows that you are expressing a judgment on his presence on Wikipedia without at least knowing what is Carlo's main job, and so the reason why he is so appreciated. Carlo is first of all a great journalist who earned the right to have his own Wikipedia page like some others prominent personality in the history of this profession like Gianni Brera and Beppe Viola. The fact that he uses another medium in order to express himself, his opinions and connect more with his audience (and like for example other journalists like Mauro Suma, Gian Luca Rossi and Stefano Borghi) does not lower his value as a great professional in his field (and I should say it corroborates it). Carletto's page needs to stay on Wikipedia.

I have no doubt Carlo is an amazing person and a great journalist but that doesn't get you included in Wikipedia and especially in Wiki:EN. You have to receive significant coverage in independent and reliable sources. Being a well-known sports commentator/journalist from Milan or a youtuber doesn't get you there automatically.

Keep: At first I don't agree with your word "any significant reliable". Reputable news agencies such as Khabaronline, Fararu, Tabnak and Hamshahri Online have covered the news of receiving his A'Design Award. If you have information about prestigious industrial design competitions in the world, for example A'Design Award - that is most prestigious world design award 1-, Design that Educates, IDA Design Award and so many, you will find that Aidin Ardjomandi is a member of the jury in many of them. An advantage that few industrial designers in Iran have.
- For example, in Design that Educates 2021 competition, he is a member of the jury along with Hadi Teherani and Farshid Moussavi - two of the most prestigious Iranian architects and industrial designers in the world.
- The invention of an instrument called the Cellorido, which won a world award, is another of his notability criteria.

Article about a short film series, not reliably sourced as having a solid claim to passing WP:NFILM. The notability claim being made here is that two of the films won short film awards at second-tier film festivals like Images en vue, FICFA and Cinémental (and by the way, don't be fooled by the ambiguous way its Cinémental award appears to be tied to its premiere at the much more significant Quebec City Film Festival, because it did not win an award at FCVQ, and Cinémental is an entirely different and much less notability-clinching festival) -- but these claims are not referenced to reliable source media coverage about the film, but to primary sources like the filmmaker's own self-published PR kit and its online rental page on Vimeo. The only footnote that actually comes from a real media outlet is a community weekly that isn't widely distributed enough to get a film over WP:GNG all by itself if it's the only real media source on offer.
As always, every film award that exists is not an automatic free pass over NFILM -- NFILM concerns itself with major awards, such as Oscars, CSAs, BAFTAs or the top tier of internationally prominent film festivals (TIFF, Berlin, Cannes) that get broad media coverage, and not with just every single film festival that exists on Earth. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the films from having to have much, much better referencing than this. Bearcat (talk) 14:54, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Scott Mingus' history of the Louisiana Tigers at Gettysburg (LSU Press) also has detailed coverage of Hart in terms of his actions during the battle. Kges1901 (talk) 16:45, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

- Keep, meets WP:GNG ie. significant coverage in the multiple sources added by Kges1901 (and before anybody says these are niche books, The Louisiana Tigers held by 600 libraries, and The Jewish Confederates 450 libraries:)). Coolabahapple (talk) 05:15, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- Weak Keep: This article is about both Alexander Hart and the practice of faith by Jewish Confederate soldiers during the Civil War. This is not a straightforward biography, it veers off into synagogues, Passover and and how soldiers observed Passover. The material is not suited for merge with The Jewish Confederates. A bit of a challenge, this article. I'd lean towards a weak keep. --Whiteguru (talk) 06:05, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

Completely unsourced article about a film, which literally just states that it exists, the end, and doesn't even attempt a notability claim that would pass WP:NFILM. As always, every film is not automatically guaranteed a Wikipedia article just because it has an IMDb page: films have to be able to demonstrate some actual historical or cultural significance, such as notable awards and/or enough reliable source attention from real film critics to pass WP:GNG. But even on a search for better sources, literally the only thing I can find anywhere is this, which namechecks the film's existence a single time in the process of calling the filmmaker's overall body of work little-seen, poorly funded and poorly distributed. That's just not enough. Bearcat (talk) 13:49, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Although there is a WP:A7 tag on the article, I do not believe that it meets the criteria for speedy deletion as there is a claim of significance; charting in three different countries, although this is not supported by reliable sources.

- Keep - redundant nomination - reliable sources are cited, including one which provides a positive review of the film in a leading Indian newspaper. You will find no in-depth coverage for most Indian films released before the 2000s, particulary the regional non-Hindi films, and it does not mean they are not notable. Sadly no archives exist for Indian newspapers as they do in publications from the west. I'm sure coverage existed even if it is not entirely available now, but I'm graeful to those who must have spent some time digging in the archives to find the ones that are cited on the page now. Shahid • Talk2me 23:18, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
- Comment at Shahid: I am happily will withdraw this nomination if you can support the notability based on Wikipedia:Notability_(films). I searched and failed. Your point that a film is notable because "coverage existed even if it is not available now" is a bit strange in my opinion and needs to be supported. Thanks Kolma8 (talk) 15:54, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Kolma8: I didn't mean to offend you, I'm sorry if my remark was inappropriate. My perception of Wikipedia is inclusive, I believe it should be a center of knowledge, even about lesser known subjects. In my view, every film the release of which is proven and receives even minimal coverage in at least one reliable source, deserves a Wikipedia article. I'm highly against this habit of filtering out all articles on films, and I think there's a great bias here against Indian films (not specifically you). Sorry, a review in The Indian Express is no mean thing. Shahid • Talk2me 10:27, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Shshshsh: In no way I felt that you were trying to offend me and I do agree that non-US/West films have a lesser chance to qualify for itsown article on WP for different reasons, but nonetheless the criteria should be followed. And this film as many other Indian films were just mass-uploaded into WP seemingly without any order or consideration to WP guidance. Thanks, Kolma8 (talk) 17:16, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

- @Johnpacklambert: Hi there, you misinterpret my comment. My vote clearly relied on the sources that are already there, which reference one of India's leading newspapers. I did say that most Indian films before the 2000s do not have existing coverage in the media because no archives exist, and the existing sources are proof to that. Not every film receives a review from The Indian Express. Shahid • Talk2me 10:27, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

I have looked for sources for this character (both of his names, including in Japanese), and do not believe the subject meets the general notability guideline: the only mentions in reliable sources are in articles about the media he's from, such as reviews briefly mentioning the protagonist's name, and cast announcements.
Worse, some sources cited do not even mention the character, despite being used to support facts about the character, such as this Kotaku review or this Anime News Network piece. The article purports that the character is one of the most popular characters in the series, with a citation to this GamerRevolution list of the "best Danganronpa characters"... except the list does not have an entry for Hajime/Izuru, and only mentions him incidentally in an entry for another character.
I don't want to accuse the person who wrote this article of intentionally using sources that don't support what the article claims they do to make the subject look more notable... but this is not looking great. Normally I would suggest merging, but considering this use of sources I don't think that's feasible, and would prefer to delete and redirect to List of Danganronpa characters.--AlexandraIDV 07:55, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

- To expand the quote from the referenced WP:NLIST :
One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources
andThere is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y") or what other criteria may justify the notability of stand-alone lists
. There is clearly no consensus that the only notability criteria for a standalone list is that is has been discussed as a group. There is also the guidance in WP:NOTSTATS that :Where statistics are so lengthy as to impede the readability of the article, the statistics can be split into a separate article and summarized in the main article

- Delete, per lack of proper sourcing establishing notability. The single source cited in the article is not reliable (as pointed out above), and since it was added by OberRanks, we have every reason to expect that even that bad source won't actually support the contents claimed in the article. Has anybody checked? Personally, I'm not touching Yerger with a ten-foot pole. As for WP:MILUNIT, that essay makes the very wise point that "presumption of notability for a military unit or formation depends wholly on the existence of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources" and that the specific types of units listed further down are merely "likely, but not certain, to have such coverage". Fut.Perf. ☼ 22:11, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
- Well, actually, I did get hold of an online copy of Yerger after all. He does mention this unit (on less than half a page), but as expected, the contents don't match those in the article. According to him, the unit was only formed in 1939, and it didn't cover East Prussia. Thus, the first two sentences of OberRanks' article contradict his source flat out, and the rest of the article isn't based on anything in the source at all. Fut.Perf. ☼ 23:02, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure the subject meets WP:ORG or WP:GNG; it's mentioned in various news articles about Unravel, but I'm not sure the non-trivial coverage can't or shouldn't go in the articles about the games or is significant enough to justify a discrete article.

- Well, so far as I can see the company does appear in "multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject".

The reason established by Celestina007 for deletion was:
"Resumé article of no value on a subject who lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources. A before search shows links to user generated sources and other sources not independent of her. The ref-bombing is a mirage to make the article appear as though it were notable. The article in itself doesn’t even indicate how or why she is notable."
The main reason why I consider her notable is due to her work for the Data Management Association through the foundation of the Mexican Chapter, then her role as Regional Coordinator for Latin America, and currently as President's Council Chair.
While DAMA might not be the considered a mainstream organization, there are several people related to DAMA with articles on Wikipedia:
- John Zachman - current Advisor Emeritus
- Clive Finkelstein - member of International Advisory Board
- Bernhard Thalheim - founder of German Chapter
- Antonino Letteriello - current Regional Coordinator for Europe, Middle-East and Africa
- Peter Chen - 2000 Professional Achievement Award
- Bill Inmon - 2002 Professional Achievement Award

- Comment: given the artist involved, there is likely to be enough coverage from the time to make this tour notable. But one of the biggest issues I have with all the Stephen Stills-related tour articles that this editor has created is that the titles of them are original research – they are names given to them by the editor, and not the official names of the tours. @Cassidd: the personnel and set list sections are unsourced, and you haven't shown how you are going to source them...

- Comment. I realize that this AfD is on track to wind up as a "no consensus" and that User:Cassidd is no longer available to participate, but I would note that the "box office scores from Billboard Magazines" do not prove that this tour was "a financial success". Fewer than half of the shows on this tour had their box office results reported in Billboard (or at least, if the results were reported, they are not included in this article). Only the box office revenue, not the tour expenses, were reported anyway. And even if CSN were able to sell out their shows, it's possible that other artists could have sold out the same venues with higher ticket prices. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 05:04, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

- Delete Fails notability guideline when conducting a WP:BEFORE search as with other cricket players in AfD today. What is not indiscriminate is that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information on anything from sports to "pick a topic". Either it passes WP:N criteria or not. This one does not. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 20:49, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

- Keep With all due respect, Yitbe, the articles as created by me in 2019 were quite different-the duplication is due to the work of other hands. Treker is quite right. This subject about the mysterious history of these novels are the academic equivalent of a current event article as new information is coming out constantly. Treker and I had a discussion about this, and it was decided to keep the main article from getting too big by breaking it up into sub-articles. I would favor reverting back to the set-up of 2019, but if that is unacceptable, then merge the two articles together. --A.S. Brown (talk) 01:43, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- I don't oppose a merge whatsoever. I should have just done so. In fact, since they're being maintained, Delete might be harmful to properly integrate the content to where it belongs. I'm in favour of a merge now and wish I hadn't initiated the AfD without just bringing it up on the Talk! — ImaginesTigers (talk) 02:06, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
- ImaginesTigers, I'm willing to be flexible about this, and I'm open to a merger or redirect. But I still think that there is enough material to warrant separate sub-articles on the Icelandic and Swedish versions of this novel, especially as new information keeps coming out. I think that undoing the work of other hands, which caused this duplication, is the best solution. I'm afraid that having everything merged into one big article could cause an article that is too big, but I'm willing to consider a merger if you think it can be done in a way that works. --A.S.
