RBA Arabia (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

Does not appear to be notable.

Article was created Dec 2015-Jan 2016 by an editor who has not edited since, and whose only other earlier edits were to add material about "RBA Arabia" to Mini-MBA, immediately reverted as non-notable.

Article's only source is a dead link. Wayback machine archived it (in 2016 only, no more recent copies) at https://web.archive.org/web/20160217052233/http://www.rba-arabia.org/. The Arabic text, according to Google Translate, says:

Welcome to the official website
The Arab League for Entrepreneurship and Business Analysis
Supervised by the American Academy of Management and Finance ®
We work to serve you in the Middle East and North Africa
You can contact us here

American Academy of Management and Finance is a red link. Possibly what is meant is American Academy of Financial Management, but that article makes no mention of an RBA certification. Googling "RBA" is tricky as it has so many meanings but I can't find anything about "RBA Arabia". Altogether, this minimal stub does not seem worthy of our encyclopedia. PamD 21:13, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note also that it is not clear whether the article claims to be about an organisation (a chapter) or a qualification. Its single sentence " ... is a professional Business Designation and acronym for Registered Business Analysts Arabian Community Chapter." is confusing. The article was much longer before May 2016, when it was reduced to this single sentence with edit summary "tone down promotional material". PamD 21:21, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - Zero sources included in the article, and searches using the title plus various other key words turned up no coverage in reliable sources. The best I found was it being mentioned on someone's Linkedin profile as something they worked on. So, it probably actually briefly existed as some point, but it completely fails any test of notability. Rorshacma (talk) 01:54, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The unreferenced article with no inline citations related to the Ayyavazhi faith narrates "Rules and regulations for God-heads (Ayyavazhi)". I tried googling it to find mention in neutral references for notability, however have failed to find them - most of the search results are wiki-mirrors. Redtigerxyz Talk 14:26, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is a mythology related article based on Ayyavazhi Mythology. This event is elobrated in Akilathirattu Ammanai, the holy book of Ayyavazhi. More over the event is well elaborated in the books which are mentioned in the reference section. Also there are no different views over the same event for different authors. So no inline citations are needed repeatedly. -Vaikunda Raja:talk: 07:50, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary dab page: the ambiguous entries are only two, and are already disambiguated via hatnote at their respective articles. No evidence that the other entries about factories and research laboratories are referred to as 'GE Building'. Deeday-UK (talk) 19:18, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Disambiguations-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 19:25, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: User:Deeday-UK, why not notify the article creator? I haven't been super-active, and just randomly came to AFD Places category and see this. But I believe it is customary, if not absolutely required. --Doncram (talk) 02:57, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. There is not a requirement that a disambiguation page have more than two entries. And this has additional information, other buildings which might be called "GE Building". Quick google search on "GE Building" suggests, at its bottom, more: GE Building Schenectady, so there is in fact evidence that another of the entries is referred to as "GE Building". And then I see both "GE Building 40" and "GE Building 53" exist in Schenectady. The search also suggests "GE Building Cincinnati" and "GE Building Concordia". I'll stop there. --Doncram (talk) 02:57, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies for the missed notifications. With evidence I mean occurrences in reliable sources that the phrase 'GE Building' is commonly (or at all) used to refer to the GE lab in Schenectady or the GE plant in Philadelphia, and I see none of that. A better way to describe a Google search for 'GE Building' is that it returns zero hits for the Schenectady and Philadelphia sites, which suggests that very few people look for those two places when searching for 'GE Building'. Then, at the bottom, Google informs you that other users have made possibly related searches for GE stuff in Schenectady, but users googling 'GE Building Schenectady' don't need any disambiguation, because they will be served only results about the Schenectady building, and none of the two Manhattan buildings.
Conclusion: The only real ambiguity about 'GE building' is which of the two Manhattan skyscrapers it refers to, and for that a hatnote is enough. --Deeday-UK (talk) 13:45, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree, there are multiple places known sometimes as "GE Building" and the disambiguation page is helpful, including because it can grow. --Doncram (talk) 14:45, 3 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Completely unsourced (and tagged as such since 2009) article about a television series with no strong claim to passing WP:TVSHOW. To be fair, this was created at a time when Wikipedia commonly (albeit unwisely) extended an automatic presumption of notability to any television series that verifiably existed regardless of the state of sourcing, but that's long since been deprecated and a television series now has to show a WP:GNG-worthy volume of coverage about it in sources independent of itself -- but I can't find any evidence that this has any such thing, and it also doesn't help that this is simultaneously categorized as an American television series while being stub-sorted as a Canadian one, leaving its actual production nationality in question. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt this show from having to have media coverage. Bearcat (talk) 16:50, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article fails WP:NOTDIRECTORY, specifically "Simple listings without contextual information showing encyclopedic merit."

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria says:

    People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.

    • If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

  • Comment I have often had occasion to admire your diligence, as I do here. But the above to me do seem to constitute 'trivial coverage' which 'is not usually sufficient to establish notability' Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 14:16, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • The sources provide signficant biographical coverage about the subject. The article notes that Sica Ho was born 24 May 2000; she was in a choir in elementary school; she was a waitress in a coffee shop; she competed in ViuTV's King Maker IV, which had 96 contestants; she was given the nickname "Chairman"; she likes Japanese culture, did cosplay performances with anime characters, and debuted at the competition dressed as a Japanese high school student; and she sang the Cookies Hong Kong song "The Impatient People" during the competition. She placed in the Top 40 of the competition. After the competition, she was signed to ViuTV and appeared on its music variety show Youngster Show Time [zh]. She was a guest on the shows Master & Fire Cheer You Up [zh] and Free Riders [zh]). Liang Zuyao, the director of the stage play Tongcai Street Zombie Battle, invited her to perform in the play.

      King Maker IV finished airing on 25 December 2021, and Sica Ho received significant coverage in articles published on 31 January 2022, 4 February 2022, 7 February 2022, 18 April 2022, 28 April 28 2022, and 25 May 2022. This demonstrates that she has received sustained coverage in reliable sources for months despite her placing only in the Top 40 of the competition. There is enough coverage to allow her to meet Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria.

  • Keep. The school is 408 years old - it's common sense that sources exist. Since the internet is less than 1/10th the school's age, most sources will be offline, but nevertheless Google Search brings up several things, including articles about a recent merger with another school.

      But as humans, we all develop some form of common sense. We all use it in differing degrees to help us to determine what to do.

This 1909 book[18] also states the school was then only 30 years old (I can only see a snippet, no idea how much infoit actually has). Oh, and Benjamin Britten seems to have nothing to do with this school, but his brother Robert (Bobby) worked there. Perhaps better to draftify it, and rewrite it once sources have been found and accessed, so we are certain that it is notable and that the information in it is verifiable.

  • Keep, I have considered this one carefully, especially as it is a primary school and these are typically considered even less notable than secondary and beyond. This particular institution is old indeed, but it has had some interesting coverage over the years. A search on newspapers.com has returned this (from 1886), this, this and this from a very brief search. There was a fairly significant editorial article in 1955 here with memories from former pupils. There is definitely further newspaper coverage as well and especially in the case of the latter of those I linked, seems reasonably substantial. That 3rd article from 1964 discussed a transformation of the school and afforded a fair amount of prose. I think someone who is willing to put the effort in could develop this and demonstrate sufficient notability. Bungle (talkcontribs) 13:24, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Contested WP:BLAR to its parent body of water, Little River (Withlacoochee River tributary) . Per WP:GEOLAND, natural features are notable "provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist".

Well, I mention it as a good-faith effort to indicate the size of the creek's watershed, and to support what follows-- the two government reports on the creek's watershed (which I found via a cursory Google search), not as an assertion of notability in itself. Apologies that this wasn't clear. Watersheds of this size tend to be a topic of governmental study, resulting in reports that contain "information beyond statistics and coordinates," and such reports are indeed "known to exist" in this case.

Those appear to be primary sources though, especially that first one, the government action plan.

  • Redirect to Little River (Withlacoochee River tributary) with no prejudice towards recreation if someone wants to expand it with multiple RS beyond primary sources. I think TimK MS makes a compelling case that it's size may in fact mean that there are sources out there that could be used to expand the article further. However, I think we would need something more than just government reports. Until that RS emerges, a redirect it the best option.4meter4 (talk) 03:52, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy delete as the majority of it is a word-for-word copy from the source. NZ government documents appear to be cc-by-4.0 released which means it's not a copy-vio, but there's still absolutely no point in having articles that are simply copies of government documents. This one is particularly misleading as the article doesn't mention New Zealand anywhere, talks about "the Government" without specifying which government, and leaves the reader having to deduce that this is not an article about public financial management in general, it is an article about one specific aspect of government in one specific country.

Not notable & WP:NOTNEWS - Article is written in a nice encyclopedia style, but most of the citations are not about the subject. The subject's article revolves almost entirely around subject's allegations during none of which offer substantiation from reliable sources, leaving the article feeling like the editor putting the cart before the horse. The article offers no accomplishments of the subject, other than in subject's academia, which is not notable. Sources are high-quality, but because the content is what seems to be unsubstantiated claims against a company, resulting article looks like WP:GOSSIP that was only news-worthy because the target of subject's allegations is Apple Inc., and during the summer of 2021 during the AppleToo event. I do not think we should publish every single person's allegations about notable entities on Wikipedia, and I think this falls under WP:BIO1E or WP:BLP1E. There is no lasting coverage beyond the employee activism (and complaints filed regarding it) events subject was involved in.

The result was no consensus. The discussion confirms the policy at WP:NLIST, viz., that there is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists. It does seem, however, that sufficient sourcing has been presented to favor the keeping of List of Jewish Nobel laureates, despite the challenges involved in unambiguously determining whether one is Jewish. If there is indeed enough sourcing to write a prose article on the relationship between Judaism and Nobel prizes, then the acceptability of a list article on the same subject follows closely behind. I do not mean to suggest that such a prose article should be written in addition to the present list, however. As for the other lists, they may be individually nominated for AFD's, at editorial discretion. Arbitrarily0 (talk) 08:53, 19 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There might be something to be said about the very obviously systematically biased distribution of Nobel winners or something, but I don't see how this kind of listing of people by an unrelated characteristic (the religion of most of the winners has absolutely nothing to do with what they achieved) achieves anything encyclopedic. Wikipedia is not a place for unencyclopedic case studies or for unencyclopedic cross-categorisations (such as, to almost exactly quote that, people from ethnic / cultural / religious group X who have won award Y). In addition, this being a compilation which I can't seem to find elsewhere (I can find some examples of generic stuff about Nobels and religion, but not much about particular religions), even in part, makes it textbook WP:OR (as something first being published on Wikipedia, which is supposed to reflect existing sources, is OR pretty much by definition).

In short, fails WP:NOT and WP:NOR.

Group nom since they all similarly fail WP:NOT (this applies even more to the non-religious group: we don't generally list things or people by characteristics they don't have...), and many seem to based on a single work by Baruch Shalev.

Still fails WP:NOT. Those sources might be useful to say something about the systematic bias (or the somehow otherwise biased distribution) of Nobel prizes, but they do not themselves support a listing like this (many of them barely name an example or two).

Oops, nevermind. That article still doesn't seem to be much better than this, either. The only sources which directly address the topic (as opposed to being there for some other factual biographical aspect) are a short paragraph on the US house website and a Huffpost article which is actually about the Senate and not the House... Coverage of individual members =/= NLIST. But that doesn't address the fact that, unlike even racism in the United States (which is a culturally significant phenomenon, and might yet not quite be up to par for a list here), "Nobel prizes and religion" is not a culturally significant phenomenon however you spin it.

While not directly used as citations, further reading sources and ELs including America's Black Congressmen, Just Permanent Interests: Black Americans in Congress, 1870–1991, and African Americans In Congress: A Documentary History make that unambiguously notable for NLIST, and the tag was unwarranted.

That's not what I wrote or implied. I mentioned two lists List of Muslim Nobel Laureates and List of Indian Nobel laureates, with a handful of comparable entries, notably Ramachandran and Salam. I cannot materially see any difference between these lists; the idea of statistics for such a small but extraordinary sample does not make any sense.

Otherwise featured articles like List of Indian Nobel laureates risk being deleted is pretty much "keep because I don't want other lists like this to be deleted".

  • Keep We usually ignore the fact that the Nobel Prize is not about science categories only, and that the religion of many Nobel Prize winners has a lot to do with what they achieved. For example, many Nobel Peace Prize winners state that their achievements and their activities were influenced in some way by their religion, such as Nathan Söderblom, Emily Greene Balch, John Mott, Albert Schweitzer, Dominique Pire, Albert Luthuli, Desmond Tutu, Carlos Filipe Ximenes Belo, Jimmy Carter, Leymah Gbowee, Denis Mukwege, and others. In the literature category some laureates were strongly influenced by religion, and religious themes can be seen in their works, such as Selma Lagerlöf, Sigrid Undset, T. S. Eliot, Czesław Miłosz, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, Bob Dylan, and others. Even certain science laureates have been strongly influenced by religion, and use science to support their perspectives about religion and science, such as Richard Smalley, William Daniel Phillips, Peter Grünberg, Gerhard Ertl, Arthur Compton, Robert Andrews Millikan, and others. I find it interesting that only these kinds of list are nominated for deletion, by claiming that "the religion of most of the winners has absolutely nothing to do with what they achieved", while with lists about countries (such as List of Nobel laureates by country), or ethnicity (such as the List of Arab Nobel laureates, List of black Nobel laureates, and List of Latin American Nobel laureates), or gender (List of female Nobel laureates)--no one gets bothered. By analyzing some laureates it's clear religion of the winners has a lot to do with what they achieved more than nationality, ethnicity or gender, yet these are the only kind of lists that are nominated for deletion. desmay (talk) 23:06, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    "Other shit exists", is not a convincing argument in the slightest. I probably should (will/already have in some cases) nominate most of those others too. If, as you claim, "some Nobel laureates were strongly influenced by religion", you should find sources which confirm this (per WP:V and WP:NRVE) and show how the specific link between Nobels and religion is a culturally significant phenomenon worthy of an encyclopedic entry (and then there are plenty of things which are worthy of encyclopedic topics which don't need lists about it); as opposed to the more generic Relationship between science and religion or the hypothetical but probably article worthy Systematic bias of Nobel Prizes.

  • Keep I find this article very useful. It is a valuable index within this encyclopedia concerning Nobel laureates. WP:NOT criteria defend against bureaucratic and censorship motivated article policing and the removal of this article would give grounds for suspicion of such grounds being used. The summarisation of the external research covered, describing the motivation and human character formation factors resulting in the exceptional work honoured by the award of these prizes is of wider interest. If this article is removed from Wikipedia its content of interest is unlikely to be so easily findable elsewhere. The article could perhaps be strengthened if it indexes in addition other human character relevant research e.g. including nationality, migration status, organisational affiliations etc, making this article about more than just the faith position of Nobel laureates. --Copsewood (talk) 10:45, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:ITSUSEFUL and WP:ILIKEIT are non-arguments to begin with. List of Nobel laureates already exists. Other "relevant human character[istics]" would probably also fall under WP:NOT unless you can show that those are more than trivial intersections (organisational affiliation has already been discussed elsewhere; migration status seems trivial, ...). If the "content is unlikely to be findable elsewhere", that seems a good argument that this is actually WP:OR and therefore shouldn't be included to begin with. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 12:27, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The removal request fails on WP:OR in the sense this article summarises research it references available elsewhere offline in book form. Removal of this list would make the original research harder to find, and summarisation of it much more time consuming. Achieving such ends is not a valid motivation for article removal. Migration and multilingual status are non trivial to the extent internationalisation of perspective contributes towards the intellectual achievement a Nobel Prize represents.

  • Absolutely keep these pages, in an age and time when modern science is suggesting that the brain is the most challenging frontier yet to be understood by science we must consider any data that relates to the mechanisms of great thinkers. We can now understand how synaptic systems form we use terms like engram and ensemble and we discuss network formation. However we do not understand cognition and the way that the brain formats things such as thoughts and ideas.
To suggest that we should not consider what religion our great thinkers engaged in is very frightening censorship. Religion is a topic that almost all great thinkers at some point engage in so how can we ignore this valuable data as we hope to understand the science of the brain and contributions of great humans over time.
Wikipedia is not the place for political or religious censorship and that is exactly what this would be. This information is not harmful, illegal or dangerous. Censorship can be. I could understand if this data was somehow an effort to convey how to build WMD's, harm life in any form or basically inaccurate or unimportant. This data is none of these things. Please do not turn Wikipedia into a political forum where activists attempt to suppress free speech and open sharing of non-harmful data. 2601:603:167E:2D0:41CE:DCCF:4D37:81D6 (talk) 16:57, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: The religion of Nobel Prize winners has been covered by good sources; sociologist and professor Harriet Zuckerman discusses the religion of American Nobel Prize winners in her work, Scientific Elite: Nobel Laureates in the United States. The same figures and topic have been covered by Professor Gregory J. Feist in The Psychology of Science and the Origins of the Scientific Mind; the sociologist and professor Gerhard Lenski, in The Religious Factor, discusses why Protestants and Jews are overrepresented in being recipients of the Nobel Prize (or being scientists in general) versus other religious groups, or inside the Protestant world, why some denominations (such as Episcopalian or other mainline groups) are overrepresented in these fields versus other Protestant denominations (such as Baptist). This topic has also been covered by social psychologists Michael Argyle and Benjamin Beit-Hallahmi in their work The Psychology of Religious Behaviour, Belief and Experience, where according to them the structure of sects and religions (such as their religious behavior) plays a role in the overrepresentation of scholars (incl. Nobel Prize winners) among them, or vice versa. It's not hard to find good sources that have covered why a specific religious group is overrepresented among Nobel Prize winners. --1990'sguy (talk) 13:15, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all, for the reasons given by the nominator. In addition, how far can the listings be trusted? Consider Christian B. Anfinsen, claimed to be Jewish, but there is nothing in his article to confirm that, and I wonder how common it is for devout Jewish parents to name a son Christian. Or take John Polanyi: his father converted from Jewish to Roman Catholic, but I know of no evidence that John Polanyi considered himself to be Jewish. Athel cb (talk) 14:20, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    In the Christian B. Anfinsen article, there is an NIH autobiographical profile cited in the article [22] where he discusses his conversion to orthodox Judaism, and John Polanyi is listed in e.g. the Jewish Virtual Library (cited to Encyclopaedia Judaica, Gale). But more specifically, while page numbers are not available in this GBooks version of Scientific Elite: Nobel Laureates in the United States, when I used the 'Search Inside' function to search for the term 'religion', there is a snippet that includes, "It should be understood, however, that the overrepresentation of Jews among American Nobel laureates tells us nothing about the extent to which their religious origins may have facilitated or hampered their achievement of scientific...". This work is cited briefly for data in The Psychology of Science and the Origins of the Scientific Mind and an unrelated conclusion about work after winning the Nobel prize at p. 22-23 (click on the snippet to access the full pages), which at p. 74, also states, "Religious background, however, does not tease apart variability due to religious orientation, culture, race, or even genetic influence. Moreover, we must make clear that these data refer to the religious faith of one's family background and upbringing, not one's current behavior. Scientists in general, and eminent scientists in particular, are conspicuous in their rejection of organized religion." In the snippets I can view on GBooks for The Psychology of Religious Behaviour, Belief and Experience, (after searching inside for "Nobel") at p. 178 I see a mention of a study noting "a remarkable degree of irreligiousity, as compared to the populations they came from." It seems it is difficult to find reliable sources to support more than an article about this complex topic generally, while sources for more clearly definable and notable parameters related to the Nobel Prize specifically (such as gender and geography) appear to be abundant, e.g. Al Jazeera, 2021.

  • Keep. Per WP:NLIST, a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources and The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been. It's quite clear that the various religious groups of Nobel prize winners have each been discussed as a group or set by multiple independent reliable sources. The nominator's argument that this violates WP:NOT is less-than-persuasive; it's more or less a bare assertion that the religion of people like Mother Theresa is so unimportant in their winning of the prize that this information should be deleted. This is, of course, absurd—patently so all of the clergy who have won Nobel prizes—and it is equally absurd to frame this as purely unencyclopedic cross-categorization. With respect to the WP:OR argument, there are reliable sources that give explicit lists for Jewish winners, Jews and Muslims, so the argument that the topic is WP:OR is wholly refuted with respect to those two articles. Any WP:OR issues present in those, therefore, could be dealt with through ordinary editing. And, as WP:DEL-CONTENT notes, [i]f editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 03:42, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It would make the argument that this isn't OR look less silly if the list's criteria of inclusion where the same as that of sources. Yet they're all different ([23], for example, does not include Richard Thaler; Oliver Hart; or a fair few others. Given how "Jewish" is both an ethnicity and a religion, that definitively puts a dent in saying this is some "sky is blue" stuff which everybody agrees on (hint: they don't; and the lists are inevitably choosing a particular methodology which might as well be OR)
    a bare assertion that the religion of people like Mother Theresa is so unimportant in their winning of the prize that this information should be deleted. a textbook strawman. The religion of individual winners being important for individual winners does not mean that a list of all winners by religion, even in cases when this is entirely irrelevant, is encyclopedically appropriate. We don't accept even categories of people who share a trivial trait where it is not otherwise relevant to their encyclopedic notability (WP:OCEGRS). For actual articles or lists in article-space, the standard is much higher - yet, except for some discussion about how Jewish winners are overrepresented, no credible source makes any mention of any link between "being Jewish" (or "being Muslim" or "being Christian") and "winning Nobel prizes". This is why this does fail WP:NOT, since the intersection is a statistical oddity, not a "culturally significant phenomenon". RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 04:59, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    And, at best, this might maybe warrant a carve-out for the Jewish list (given it does seem to be the only one which is occasionally covered in sources). The others even more obviously fail WP:NOT. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 05:03, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, List of green-eyed winners of the Ramon Magsaysay Award would fall afoul of our policies or guidelines; but I genuinely struggle to understand how the Jewish winners list made it here: firstly, the mistaken conflation with Judaism, and secondly, the simplest of checking reveals it to be a clearly notable topic of discussion with abundant sourcing available.

  • Delete all as a perfect example of a non-encyclopedic cross-categorization and trivia compiled through WP:SYNTH and WP:OR.

    "Non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations" except there's an encyclopedia entry with a list of Jewish winners ... this is "marginally compelling"? How is an encyclopedia entry OR or SYNTH? We can generally agree on where the "non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations" line begins (List of Japanese restaurants in Bamako), but the core of the problem is that there is no generalised consensus on where it ends and acceptable encyclopedic cross-categorizations begins (ie what is a "culturally significant phenomenon"). I struggle to see any justification for the blanket "delete all" !votes in the face of reliable sourcing. There's a procedural problem with the nomination, it's been demonstrated.

  • Keep because from where we are, it's the simplest thing to do. I'll explain: the intersection of religion and winning-the-Nobel-prize has clearly been written about (especially but not exclusively in relation to Judaism) and in some of the specific disciplines covered by the Nobel prize, the relationship between that discipline (e.g. the science) and religion is widely written-about (and since the Nobel prizes and their winners are the pinnacle of scientific success, it follows that the relationship between science and religion automatically overlaps with the relationship between being a Nobel prize winner and being a scientist). So the subject exists, is sourced, and deserves an article. I would have felt better if someone had written it in the form of an article. But instead, it's in the form of a list. Now even as a list, it has value: it is quite likely that our readers will be interested in the sorts of people of the Jewish faith who've won these prizes, and what they did, so it's a directory for them. But if we're to treat it as a directory-list rather than a subject-article, then there is no justification in keeping one list (Jewish winners) and deleting another (Moslem winners). So we must either delete the lot and instead write an article, which I'm not volunteering to do, or we keep the lot. Further, if anyone were to write an article on the interaction of the Jewish faith and Nobel prize-winning, then they'd undoubtedly add a list of Jewish winners, which would become too large for the article, and need to be farmed out into exactly the sort of list we're contemplating deleting. Basically, keep is the only long-term stable solution. Elemimele (talk) 12:42, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    the relationship between that discipline (e.g. the science) and religion is widely written-about Science and religion already exists and does just fine without a list ("List of scientists by religion") to accompany it. it follows that the relationship between science and religion automatically overlaps with the relationship between being a Nobel prize winner and being a scientist Whether this is a correct generalisation, or not, I won't judge, but if it overlaps with the relationship between science and religion, why not just cover it on the existing page; and then maybe split out a Nobel laureates and religion once there is an actual, encyclopedic article about it? Further, if anyone were to write an article on the interaction of the Jewish faith and Nobel prize-winning, then they'd undoubtedly add a list of Jewish winners; in which case WP:WTAF is practical advice. If sources have written about only one of the possible intersections, it's not our job to WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS and also make lists about the others. We don't keep indiscriminate lists because someone might, one day, write a proper encyclopedic article about the subject. it is quite likely that our readers will be interested WP:ITSINTERESTING - unless there are sources which are as interested in it as our hypothetical readers, we'd be doing a disservice to those interested readers by having articles on them.

  • Delete all and salt, essentially per WP:TNT, and per Elemimele, Vladimir.copic, the scholarly commentary I noted above, and David Fuchs.

Goldsztajn and I have had an extended discussion at my Talk page about these issues, and from my view, as a tl;dr version, WP:LISTN tells us There is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y"), so a focus on the quality of the sources seems important, and I think the scholarly sources identified in this discussion support the development of a prose article only, due to the WP:OR and WP:SYNTH that otherwise appears necessary to develop standalone lists.

WP:NLIST "The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been."

As I said in our ongoing discussion on my Talk page, from my view, when we look at the scholarly sources discussing the grouping or set generally, i.e. the ones I highlight in my first comment in the discussion, these sources tell us that the connections are more complex than a straightforward list. I also think we have some WP:NPOV issues if we attempt to develop a list, as the Who is a Jew? article helps emphasize, as well as the non-RS sources that have not been cited in the discussion but are at the top of some online search results and reflect the polarity identified by Hollinger (2002). Based on core policies, it appears that this material should be developed as a prose article that can articulate the nuances of the subject matter as expressed by reliable scholarly sources. List inclusion criteria should be unambiguous, objective, and supported by reliable sources, and the scholarly sources in particular seem to show that we do not have unambiguous criteria available, and the WP:OR/WP:NPOV concerns I have expressed apply to what appears to be a lack of objective standards for list inclusion as well as whether lists should exist despite scholarly sources telling us there is no reliable basis for making these connections, even if we can identify clear inclusion criteria. Beccaynr (talk) 02:02, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Two problems with this: (1) the scholarly, generalised discussion cited above about is about religion, not identity (2) complexifying the issue through generalisation rather than the specific instance at hand. Who is on the list is a content dispute to be resolved through analysis of sourcing, this does not invalidate the list. I disagree with the interpretation of Hollinger, it's not a caution against discussion of Jewish Nobel winners, but rather it's about the uses of that information (although more specifically it's a rejection of a particular thesis on Jewish achievement). When there's more than 100 winners, all of whom are notable in their own right, it's completely sensible that there would be a list. No reason why the absence of one (article) should preclude the other (the list). Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 02:25, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No subject is inherently notable; and if the only thing we have about a place is its population from the census, then that is not really enough to warrant an article here. Even GEOLAND is clear (Wikipedia:Notability_(geographic_features)#Sources) that On the other hand, sources that describe the subject instead of simply mentioning it do establish notability.; but of the sources presented, none "describe the subject": we have census tables (which are routine coverage to be expected for literally anywhere) and a trivial mention of the town's name (but no coverage of it).

    That seems flatly at odds with WP:NRVE and the whole of Wikipedia notability guidelines and common practice at AfD (including WP:BUTITEXISTS: A related phenomenon is the fallacy of entitlement: the notion that mere existence automatically entitles someone or something to a Wikipedia article). It is also a "precedent" which is not documented as such in the guidelines. A presumption of notability, as afforded by GEOLAND, is rebuttable. The lack of SIGCOV here speaks for itself. I will additionally note that the town's population, of a few thousand, is comparable to that of the average US census tract - and those are specifically not even given the presumption of being notable.

    I find it profoundly ironic that you would cite NOTBURO after having made an argument that We have a precedent to keep articles under GEOLAND as long as there is even one reliable source proving it is a legally recognised place, regardless of population and coverage... I similarly find you flippantly dismissing my argument by incorrectly claiming it is a "what about X" argument to be equally ironic and unconvincing when your own argument is "similar pages get kept per GEOLAND", without addressing at all the fundamental issue here, which is that this particular page fails WP:SIGCOV and other community-endorsed requirement (which a WP:LOCALCONSENSUS can simply not make irrelevant). RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 04:39, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Kindly go through the current wording of WP:SNG: "Some SNGs have specialized functions: for example, the SNG for academics and professors and the SNG for geographic features operate according to principles that differ from the GNG." It's abundantly clear that places which are evaluated to meet GEOLAND, do not have to meet GNG again. -- Ab207 (talk) 12:18, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    All of these are part of WP:N; and WP:NRVE states, unequivocally, that No subject is automatically or inherently notable merely because it exists. Even GEOLAND says quite simply and clearly that sources need to do more than just trivially mention the subject: This guideline specifically excludes maps and tables from consideration when establishing topic notability, because these sources often establish little except the existence of the subject.; and sources that describe the subject instead of simply mentioning it do establish notability. Mere existence is not enough (Wikipedia is neither an indiscriminate collection of information; or a directory), you still need sources that meet WP:SIGCOV. And none has been presented here. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 12:40, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    But this article doesn't depend on "maps and tables for establishing topic notability", it has a reliable source [42] proving it is a legally recognised census town. —usernamekiran (talk) 18:37, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    There is verifiable evidence that the subject is "Populated, legally recognized place" per GEOLAND. We are using census sources for that, rather than mere maps and tables -- Ab207 (talk) 14:48, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    And what is census data but a collection of statistical tables? Again, your reading of GEOLAND is faulty. Simply because it is a "Populated, legally recognized place" does not mean it gets an article automatically. It is only "presumed" to be notable, and presumptions are not absolutes; and WP:N and GEOLAND both make clear that simple, mere existence, without sources which describe the subject instead of simply mentioning, is not enough. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 15:04, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    If you read the lead of WP:N, "presumption of notability" applies to both GNG and SNG equally but you seem to be misconstructing it as a preference for GNG over SNG. Sure, you are still within your right to propose a valid merge/redirect target, and let the consensus decide. But portraying an SNG as some kind of lesser criteria in evaluating notability is what I object to. -- Ab207 (talk) 15:15, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    No, the problem is that the presumption of GEOLAND is being here treated as some form of absolute; despite that not being what the word "presume" means in English, and despite the fact GEOLAND itself is clear that you actually do need to have more coverage than mere proof of existence. You seem to be misconstruing GEOLAND as being an automatic-notability-pass. Emphatically, it isn't. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 15:48, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @RandomCanadian: Hi. I apologise for my previous brief comment, I was on mobile. I am sorry it sounded a little curt. I can see where you are coming from, and I do understand you. Most of Indian, and south asian cities do not get significant coverage unless they are tourist spot, industrial hub/metropolitan, or historically significant. That would make at least 50% of such cities fail GNG. We are here to build an online encyclopaedia, we do not have limitations of hard-paper. In essence, WP:NRVE, GNG and other policies/guidelines are created to avoid spamming/advertising. When it comes to towns (article creation), marketing/advertising is not a concern. If somebody tries that, it can be handled on case-by-case basis. We do have essays Wikipedia:Existence does not prove notability, and Wikipedia:Existence ≠ Notability, I have often brought up these essays in AfD about people, and organisations. But when it comes to legally recognised census towns, and species that have a correct name (botany) or valid name (zoology) are generally kept − WP:NSPECIES. There are some topics which are generally kept/considered notable as long as they are legally/technically recognised, and has one reliable source verifying the subject's recognition. We also have Wikipedia:Obscure does not mean not notable. Simply put, sometimes we have to bypass a policy/guideline to maintain the spirit of wikipedia, and for greater good. —usernamekiran (talk) 18:37, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The problem is that Wikipedia is WP:NOTEVERYTHING. We are still an encyclopedia, which means that we are a summary of knowledge; a summary of existing sources. If the only existing sources about a topic merely confirm its existence, or are wide-ranging all-inclusive catalogues or databases (or, censuses), then we simply don't have enough material from which to write an article. Something which simply says "X is a town in [region]" is nothing more than an uninformative catalogue listing. If a guideline says "this might be notable", but there is no evidence it is notable, then it isn't; in the same way that someone presumed innocent of a crime (as per due process) does not remain innocent once they have been found guilty. Of course, as an encyclopedia, we still want to be informative, hence why the redirect (so people still have a clue where the place is); but that is not a reason to have an article when there is nothing to be written about the subject. WP:NSPECIES (and any criteria which leads to practical interpretations of "exists therefore is notable", as how you seem to be interpreting GEOLAND to be) seems similarly problematic to the previous versions of WP:NSPORTS (which has, finally, after way too much effort, been mostly updated to correspond more closely with what actually warrants an encyclopedic article) in that it encourages lots of articles which are merely glorified database entries (and an encyclopedia is not a database); but that's a debate for another place and time. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 21:38, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    yes, there are a few SNGs I would like to see deprecated, including beauty pageant winners, but not geoland, and definitely not the NSPECIES. —usernamekiran (talk) 21:51, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Then stop arguing that we should have articles about stuff we have nothing to write about. :) Anyway, I think we've both made our views abundantly clear and there's no point further continuing this here on this page. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 21:56, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    yup :-D but this is the reason why we have SNGs in the first place. We cant apply same notability criteria to everything. But like you said, thats a discussion for another venue. —usernamekiran (talk) 04:15, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

While it states in the Sources section of WP:NGEO, "sources that describe the subject instead of simply mentioning it do establish notability", this does not nullify or take precedence over point #1 of WP:GEOLAND. I ought to know, because I was one of the users who worked to clarify WP:NGEO and to get it promoted to a notability guideline back in the day. The spirit of NGEO is that "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low.

  • Comment – Note that at Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features) it does not state that Populated, legally recognized places require significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. That particular requirement is for Populated places without legal recognition, under point #2 of WP:GEOLAND, where it states that said places are "considered on a case-by-case basis in accordance with the GNG". However, this stipulation is not in place for Populated, legally recognized places, which is covered under point #1 of WP:GEOLAND, nor should it be, because this was not the intention when the page was finalized as a guideline.
Per WP:5, Wikipedia combines many features of general and specialized encyclopedias, almanacs, and gazetteers. I was one of the people that helped to develop WP:NGEO further and to get it promoted to a guideline page. If people want to change the guideline page, it should be done at the guideline talk page, rather than at individual AfD discussions.
Above in this discussion, a user has created a synthesis of wording at the guideline page, stating, "GEOLAND explicitly requires sources that describe the subject instead of simply mentioning it [to] establish notability". However, GEOLAND does not state this at all. Rather, it states there, under the Sources section, "sources that describe the subject instead of simply mentioning it do establish notability." This statement is within the context of the preceding sentence stating, "This guideline specifically excludes maps and tables from consideration when establishing topic notability..." This general, generic statement regarding sources other than tables and maps does not magically override everything else on the page, nor does it nullify point #1 of WP:GEOLAND. It is just general guidance, nothing more. Point #1 certainly does not "explicitly" state that significant coverage is a requirement at all, not even in the slightest. Point #2 does. Point #2 is not point #1. Nilaji is a legally recognized populated place, and as such, per point #1 of WP:GEOLAND, such places are typically presumed to be notable. It is as simple as that.

Non-notable political consultant. Reliable sources are cited in the article, but they only cover Rodriguez in the context of relatively minor (alleged) election fraud. Identified simply as "Woman" in the CBS source, an indicator of her lack of notability. The Center Square source mentions that in June 2021, 500 election fraud cases against 43 defendants were pending in Texas courts. Rodriguez's case isn't exceptional.

The political consultant is notable given the prosecution for election fraud. Those prosecutions have been relatively rare, and it elevates the notoriety of the subject significantly. JArthur1984 (talk) 00:52, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Furthermore, you agree with me that reliable sources are cited.
Keep in mind that under the "general notability guidelines" notability here is presumed, because the individual has received "significant coverage in reliable sources" including, in addition to those already cited in the article:

One news outlet goes even farther, and thinks the fact of her defense attorney is newsworthy (it's the former district attorney in the jurisdiction) - https://www.ktsa.com/former-bexar-county-da-nico-lahood-representing-woman-charged-with-election-fraud/
I think the Texas Attorney General nicely articulates the significance of the prosecution:
"“Many continue to claim that there’s no such thing as election fraud. We’ve always known that such a claim is false and misleading, and today we have additional hard evidence. This is a victory for election integrity and a strong signal that anyone who attempts to defraud the people of Texas, deprive them of their vote, or undermine the integrity of elections will be brought to justice,” said Attorney General Paxton."

@JArthur1984 While GNG is a broad general policy applied in most instances, in certain cases we have more specific guidelines which raise the standard of inclusion to a higher threshold. These policies apply in this case because this is a biography of a living person, and as such the policies of WP:BLP1E and WP:BLPCRIME both trump GNG and must be strictly enforced. In this case we would need to see evidence of the notability of Raquel Rodriguez other than the reporting on the crime that was committed. If you can produce significant coverage of Rodrigues in multiple independent sources (a minimum of 3 not 2) with zero mention of the crime and that spans across time (per WP:SUSTAINED), then and only then is the subject able to pass BLP1E and BLPCRIME. The exception to this would be if the crime itself becomes a high profile event with SUSTAINED coverage in a variety of types of sources (books, journal articles, etc. not just the news) and beyond just a single region (ie national or global coverage; otherwise the subject is considered “low profile” and fails BLP1E) However, that is not the case here as the sources are too chronologically close to one another to demonstrate sustained coverage, and they are part of the routine news cycle in local newspapers and other local media.

Streaming web series that lacks significant coverage in reliable sourcing.

Prodded with the justification Fails WP:GNG and WP:SPORTSCRIT #5. Redirect is not suitable per WP:R#Delete #1, as there are multiple valid targets (under Walter Hesinghaus), and as we cannot assume which one the reader is looking for the search function is more effective.
