This footballer played once for the Cayman Islands several years ago. He has also played domestically in the Cayman Islands top flight.
I see nothing that helps this person meet GNG and a search of local news services turned up very little. There are some passing mentions in the Cayman Compass but it's not nearly enough.

The result was redirect to Survivor: Fiji. Liz Read! Talk! 04:36, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

He won Survivor: Fiji, no doubt, and he made activities after that. However, I am concerned that he's notable for only winning that Survivor season, not businesses that he established, endowments he made, appearances in other TV shows, or any other.
Sources verifying (existences of) this person's businesses, including one about his appearance in Shark Tank, seem to be promoting the businesses, which is against WP:NOTPROMO policy and WP:SPIP, but I could be wrong. The sources also briefly mention him only as a founder of one of businesses rather than significantly cover the founder and Survivor winner himself. Unsure whether producers' re-inviting him makes him notable as well; I doubt it.
In summary, violates WP:BLP1E, and should be redirected to Survivor: Fiji. George Ho (talk) 07:39, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

As an athlete he would need to have medalled at adult black belt level (not Masters) at an elite international competition (IBJJF Mundials, Euros, Pans or Brasileiros) none are listed here. As a coach he would need to have coached more than one notable athlete or introduced a notable technique or training method. I also could not find any coverage of his book by reliable sources.

The only source that directly addresses the street is the Virginia Woolf source, which is arguably primary in that regard.

- Keep. Typical article for a notable London street, based on its history, buildings and residents. How else should we organise such information? Edwardx (talk) 12:10, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. The buildings in it and the people who lived there are the proper content of the article together with other ancillary information such as locality, ambience etc. Other articles then give a more detailed treatment of buildings and residents as necessary if separately notable. I think we would have almost no street articles if we restricted them to streets that have an in-depth discussion of the street as a whole without mentioning any specific buildings or people. Philafrenzy (talk) 12:48, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, because most city streets are not notable. You don't see this proliferation of city streets anywhere else on this site except London. Why is that? --Rschen7754 14:56, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Because its history dates back to the Romans and there are a wealth of sources to draw on. London is not over-represented it is the streets of other cities that are under-represented. Philafrenzy (talk) 20:03, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- This is the English-language Wikipedia, so cities in English mother tongue countries will of course have more articles. New York City is the only other such city with a similiarly large population, but that only in relatively recent times (in 1800, London was already over 1 million, NYC a mere 60,000). And NYC is a much newer city; and mostly built on a grid, so has far fewer streets. Edwardx (talk) 20:22, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. plenty of historical info supported by references. To delete would be to lose a useful entry.
- Keep — well-referenced article of a notable street included in other encyclopaedias and meeting WP:GNG. —Jonathan Bowen (talk) 10:12, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- But does it? What about WP:SIGCOV? --Rschen7754 14:55, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep as per Edwardx and the creator of the article who is well known for creating notable articles... many London streets are well documented and have deep histories with regards to the buildings there and who lived there...it makes a better encyclopedia by including them. Whispyhistory (talk) 19:33, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep As creator, I am dismayed to see so many notable British streets nominated by Rschen7754. Each has a unique history created by the structures built upon them and the people who lived there. A field in England could pass unremarked for thousands of years, then a hoard is dropped and a battle fought, a manor house built and a road run through it. The streets are the people, and the many references attest to that. No Swan So Fine (talk) 07:53, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
- Comment. I see where Reschen7754 is coming from. Beaufort Street itself seems not notable under the WP:GNG as there needs to be indepth coverage of the street itself and not one of the article's references has this (nor have I found any). However, I disagree with the part of the nomination that seems to suggest notable buildings on the street do not contribute to notability of the street. I would think that having a series of notable buildings on a street would help to establish notability of the street, as buildings are inherently part of a street. However, here there's only the now demolished Beaufort House which precedes the street's laying out and the one listed building, which I don't think is enough. Notable people who have a connection with the street do not make the street notable as Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features) states Geographical features must be notable on their own merits. They cannot inherit the notability of organizations, people, or events. I've no wish to delete the article as it has encyclopedic merit on the history of the street, nor do I see a suitable merge target. Rupples (talk) 05:56, 23 June 2023 (UTC)
- The problem is that most of those buildings already have their own articles. Rschen7754 16:08, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
- I'm guessing you see this article as unnecessary duplication of content and view it as a WP:REDUNDANTFORK? Don't want to misrepresent you, just trying to gain an understanding, so do correct me if I'm wrong. Rupples (talk) 16:43, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
- Sort of. You remove the redundant content and I'm not sure that you have an article after that. One shouldn't be able to use the sources for the building to also make the road notable. Rschen7754 20:21, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
- That is fundamentally wrong. It's not an article about a road, it's an article about a street. Absolutely details of the residents and the buildings are the proper sources for an article about a street. If we didn't include those, there would be no street articles at all, which is perhaps what Rschen7754 would prefer. What does Rschen7754 propose, that a street or road article should restrict itself to where it starts and ends and the quality of the tarmacadam? Philafrenzy (talk) 21:40, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

This article reads like an advertisement for what appears to be a rather small obscure website. Its only reliable source is a single Vice article remarking on its creation back in 2017, the other cited sources are from the website itself. I tried searching for other sources but found nothing, so it apparently doesn't meet the notability criteria of being covered by multiple, independent reliable sources. If it were notable, surely it would have received more coverage in the past 6 years? Grnrchst (talk) 21:03, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

- Yes, are you saying that it's exceedingly unlikely for an average English reader to ever search for "Shubham Sharma"? Because otherwise this is useful. Also, you can use {{transclude list}} to reduce duplication between those two lists. --Joy (talk) 09:09, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. There's more than one article about a person called Shubham Sharma. If there's no primary topic for "Shubham Sharma" then there needs to be a way to disambiguate, and a given name list article isn't good enough (note Shubham is a given name WP:Set index article as opposed to a disambiguation page). See, for example, Kevin Newman doesn't redirect to Kevin; John Quested doesn't redirect to John. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 16:49, 19 June 2023 (UTC)

- Comment. A quick look in a Swedish newspaper archives gives far more than what seems to be available online. There's a two-page article in Dagens Industri, "Prylfantasten redo för nästa steg" (18 May 2007), from the launch of the company, and a shorter piece in Svenska Dagbladet, "Freaks får ny sajt" (24 April 2007), some relevant content in "Come back!" in Veckans Affärer (23 May 2007), "Testsajt söker kvinnor" in Dagens Nyheter (5 September 2008). Some of these are partly interviews, but I think it points towards notability.

- Redirect per above: I'm seeing nothing but routine sports coverage and trivial mentions that fail SIGCOV. Raymarcbadz also seems to be laboring under the outdated presumption that simply having been an Olympian is a presumptive notability pass; someone who repeatedly talks of the "thousand" Olympics articles he's created really ought to read WP:NOLYMPICS. Ravenswing 01:34, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- I don't understand why do we need to question the athlete's participation to the Games. If this has been a presumptive notability pass, will an author recreate an article once deleted? Perhaps impossible. We exhaust all our means to cite sources and establish content on the article. Why do we need to read and follow WP:NOLYMPICS? What's the purpose of this evolving project? Raymarcbadz (talk) 21:18, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- (blinks HARD) You need to read and follow WP:NOLYMPICS because you are involved in article creation of Olympians, and that is the notability criterion governing such creations. Honestly, you are seriously bringing into question your competence to edit Wikipedia, which is a subject for debate at the current ANI thread on your actions. Ravenswing 02:48, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

This statement might be unfathomable for any user to read, especially for those hold liable for the article creation. Raymarcbadz (talk) 04:51, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
- (blinks HARD) You need to read and follow WP:NOLYMPICS because you are involved in article creation of Olympians, and that is the notability criterion governing such creations. Honestly, you are seriously bringing into question your competence to edit Wikipedia, which is a subject for debate at the current ANI thread on your actions. Ravenswing 02:48, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
- I don't understand why do we need to question the athlete's participation to the Games. If this has been a presumptive notability pass, will an author recreate an article once deleted? Perhaps impossible. We exhaust all our means to cite sources and establish content on the article. Why do we need to read and follow WP:NOLYMPICS? What's the purpose of this evolving project? Raymarcbadz (talk) 21:18, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to Niger at the 2020 Summer Olympics#Judo. The original AfD got it right. There is no evidence of significant independent coverage that meets WP:GNG, merely typical sports reporting. It's true he competed in the Olympics where he lost his first fight in the round of 64, but competing in the Olympics is no longer sufficient to show WP notability.

Completely unsourced article about a television character, written entirely in-universe and not offering any evidence of her real-world significance. As always, television characters do not automatically get their own standalone biographies as topics independent of the show they were in just because they "existed" -- fictional characters can qualify for articles that demonstrate and properly source some genuine analysis of their real-world impact, but do not get standalone articles if you just write a fansite-style "biography" listing a few in-universe facts about their fictional lives sourced nowhere at all.

- Keep this company, while small, appears to be a significant participant in the market for domestically produced agricultural machinery in Bangladesh. The company gets regular coverage in the Daily Star and has been mentioned in more than one scholarly article about agricultural mechanization. I've added a bit to the article. It's a bit thin, but considering the limited scope of the article there is enough out there to support the text and to meet notability.
- The nominator doesn't say what the broken link is
, but it appears to be the gonews24.com cite which (based on Google translate) appears to be unrelated to this company. If someone with local language capability wants to delete it that would be welcome.As to the question of citing the company website, there's nothing wrong with using a primary source, although it's not preferred, if notability is shown through secondary sources. - I would encourage @M.parvage to familiarize himself with WP:BEFORE before making further nominations for AfD. I found a number of sources easily, and there are others out there. AfD nomination should be based on availability of sources not the current state of sourcing. Oblivy (talk) 03:53, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
- See:

- Islam, Rafiqul (2019-12-17). "Local firm making farm machinery". The Daily Star.
- ফয়সাল, ফজলে এলাহী মোহাম্মদ (2019-12-02). সিলেট অঞ্চলে প্রবাসী বিনিয়োগ: একটি সামগ্রিক পর্যালোচনা [Diaspora Investment in Sylhet Region: A Holistic Review]. GoNews24 (in Bengali). Retrieved 2019-12-14.

- In regards to using the company website as a source, to my understanding of WP:GNG, this does not preclude it from being notable, but rather prevents that particular source from being an indicator of notability.
- Also, which link is broken? They all seem fine as far as I can see. Alivardi (talk) 14:48, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
- This is a company therefore we apply NCORP criteria (in conjunction with GNG). There are really two types of sources - those to support fact within the article and those which meet the criteria for establishing notability. So, yes, the company website can be used (to a point) for the first but is not independent so is not used for the second. As per WP:SIRS, for the second we require references provide in-depth "Independent Content" about the company.
- The Daily Star reference does not contain in-depth "Independent Content" as it simply regurgitates statements from the company without providing any independent analysis. The information (about the company) is sourced from the company and their execs.
- The gonews24 article is a mere mention-in-passing, a couple of sentences about low prices. This is not sufficient in-depth information to satisfy CORPDEPTH
- The kalerkantho article relies entirely on an interview provided by Alimul Ehsan Chowdhury, MD of Alim Industries Limited (says it in the byline). This fails ORGIND as it is not "Independent Content".
- Also, as article content creator, you are welcome to participate here and of course you would prefer to keep the article, that isn't being biased. Perhaps though you can locate references that meet NCORP? HighKing 15:59, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
- @HighKing I can't understand how a bylined article is not independent simply because the information is sourced from the article subject. That's how a lot of journalism is done - journalists go ask people for relevant information. For sure a relatively passive interview, or reprinting/paraphrasing a press release, might lack independence but I think you're setting too high a bar. Oblivy (talk) 00:48, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
- A call to emotion is a poor choice on words on your part. The NCORP standard was specifically updated from previous policy in 2017 to address this very siuation, amongst other. Its fails WP:SIRS. Interviews are not independent. The article is non-notable. scope_creepTalk 08:24, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
- Oblivy, WP:ORGIND is very clear with regards to a requirement for references to contain "Independent Content"? It's not a high bar at all if you're interested in Wikipedia articles not being influenced by PR and hype. Information provided by the company or anybody linked to the company is inarguably not independent. That doesn't mean that articles that use quotes or company information automatically don't fit the criteria. It just means that if the vast majority of information in the article is simply regurgitating company-provided info then we don't see that as meeting the criteria for notability. For example, if the journalist were to use company-provided information in order to further develop independent content such as original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, or fact checking or even provide this independent content from another source, then - so long as the content can be *clearly* attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject company - that would meet the criteria for Independent Content. Hope that explanation helps. HighKing 11:28, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
- I'm afraid I can't agree with you there, @HighKing. The article is bylined, and it cites others such as the agriculture minister and "industry insiders" (assuming good faith journalism, that's not just the company which is identified).
- As to @Scope creep's comment, I see no appeal to emotion in what I wrote, which focuses on the reality that journalists source information from people with knowledge. Oblivy (talk) 06:56, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
- Bylines are nothing to do with it and your ignoring established consensus with the WP:NCORP standard. And whether it cites other people is neither here nor there. Its not independent and that is an expert on WP:NCORP telling you that. This is about the second or third time in as many weeks that you have decided in an Afd to ignore established consensus. scope_creepTalk 08:21, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
- If you want to teach me how much sourcing is required to make a newspaper article independent please use my talk page. I don't think your comment is helpful to this discussion. Oblivy (talk) 12:18, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
- This is where the discussion is taking place and its always here. If you want to take a position, that is fine, it is perfectly reasonable but you must provide evidence to support it. Not make a statement of the type that has been comprehensively discharged as being an unreliable way of providing notability for company's, for more than a decade ago. scope_creepTalk 16:14, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
- WP:ORGIND deals with two types of non-independent journalism: 1) an author who is not independent of the subject, and 2) so-called "churnalism" where a journalist just regurgitates information from the subject. In the article in question, the journalist sought information from other sources and wrote an article. There follow eight bullet point examples none of which clearly applies to this article (and you haven't said which one does apply). Oblivy (talk) 05:28, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Oblivy, WP:SIRS says that content must meet all the criteria - so it must contain in-depth (CORPDEPTH) "Independent Content" *about the company*. This article arguably does not contain any in-depth content - instead it provides a short overview of the company. When we look at specific or in-depth information, it has all been provided by the company and/or the execs. This information is clearly attributed. When I look at the information attributed to industry insiders or the agriculture minister, it is neither in-depth (a single sentence is not in-depth) nor about the company (market stats are not about the company). So to be clear, once you remove the information that has been provided by the company and/or the execs, we're left with content that fails NCORP criteria for establishing notability. If you think otherwise, please point to a specific paragraph which you believe meets the criteria. HighKing 13:23, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- So it's not WP:ORGIND at all. It's about having to parse this (clearly independently-written, multiple-sourced) article to prove the writer sourced in-depth information elsewhere? That's not WP:ORGIND, not on any plain reading. I appreciate that you explained yourself, which is is more than @Scope creep did. So thank you, @HighKing your earlier comments now make more sense, but I give up. Oblivy (talk) 13:58, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- I suppose it depends on which way is best to get across the reasons why the reference fails NCORP. You can either say that the article contains in-depth information, but that because the information is provided by the company and their execs it is not independent and fails ORGIND (which is the way I tend to explain it) or you can say that an examination of the independent content does not contain in-depth information about the company and fails CORPDEPTH. Six of one, half dozen of the other. HighKing 12:47, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

- Delete per OP. I considered bringing this to AfD when it was created, as it appears to be more of a passing descriptor rather than an ideological position. As far as I can see none of the sources actually say it is a thing and instead are just using the term to describe various parties. — Czello (music) 12:01, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

- Delete; this is not just a dictionary definition, but an imprecise and unhelpful one. Basically, a list of times that someone has said that something was "semi-fascist", but without any evidence that someone's tried to systematically define what this label means, or even claimed that it was a distinct category unto itself. jp×g 17:33, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

Other precedents:

- List of languages in the Turkvision Song Contest: deleted.
- Turkvision Song Contest 2016: deleted.
I am nominating the remaining country/region pages of Turkvision by common demand at the previous "Tyumen Oblast in the Turkvision Song Contest" AfD, where participants said:
all Turkvision country/region articles should be deleted
andAll Turkvison by country/region articles deserve to be deleted
(especially the per country/region AND year articles are way over the top. As for the regular by country or region articles, these summarizing stats will be sufficent. The by country/region list could be extended with zero medals countries.
); and- no exception should be made for Azerbaijan (
I do not see why Azerbaijan in the Turkvision Song Contest should be an exception
); nor - any exception for any other country or region despite some more sourcing (
While there may be additional sources for Azerbaijan in particular, I'm still not convinced that the contest's overall notability warrants this level of detail.
).
If anyone would like to recycle anything, I strongly recommend participants to indicate which parts from which articles they would like to recycle to which other articles if they suggest a "Merge". Just saying "Merge" doesn't really help the closer. So far, everyone does appear to agree that the main articles about Turkvision should be kept, and that these articles do pass WP:GNG. So if anyone wants to recycle anything, please indicate to which of the following main articles:
- Turkvision Song Contest
- Turkvision Song Contest 2013
- Turkvision Song Contest 2014
- Turkvision Song Contest 2015
- Turkvision Song Contest 2020
- Bala Turkvision Song Contest

- enough? for what??? lettherebedarklight晚安 11:31, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
- It may be enough to validate notability. I think with a WP:BEFORE could be easily seen that there is coverage, so my statement about no coverage is actually not correct, it requires much better research on not-easily-found historical sources. Apart from the source Alpha3031 found, I found a mention of Michel Lanskoy on Dagblad voor Amersfoort and a mention in the Table Tennis magazine (Vol. 10 March, 1952). Because it is an athlete of 1940s-1950s, it requires a research beyond websites, mainly on historic newspapers and magazines. Although I can't investigate French language sources easily, I also found mentions of Michel Lanskoy on International herald tribune, many reports on L'Athlète (Bordeaux) and Libération. So it's not weak, but keep for me. Chiserc (talk) 12:58, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
- enough? for what??? lettherebedarklight晚安 11:31, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

Like, in the Wednesday issue of L'Athlète: "Le champion du monde de tennis de table Bergmann: devrait faire triompher la sélection anglaise devant Bordrez - Lanskoy". @Lettherebedarklight, can I ask if you've found any foreign language sources at all, whether or not you've fully evaluated them?

But the big match was Satoh-Lanskoy. Everyone was waiting to see that one." "Michel Lanskoy? The Frenchman? Why him?" asked an eager junior. "He's not so good."
I'd say the SIGCOV here is more of Satoh than Lanskoy, but this is just from the fully indexed and online searchable sources, I would be very surprised if there wasn't more. Alpha3031 (t • c) 12:49, 10 June 2023 (UTC)- The fact he appeared in Sports Illustrated at all suggests to me there has to be more out there in French?

- List of US Airways Express destinations (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- List of Virgin Express destinations (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
As was discussed at the 2018 RFC on lists of airline destinations and quoted in a recent related AFD, the general consensus is that they are not content for Wikipedia. As per the subsequent AN discussion, subsequent AFDs may be nominated in a orderly fashion provided the link to the RFC is included and the closer takes the RFD discussion into consideration.
As per the recent AFDs on numerous Airline destination lists, the articles on their own fail WP:NOT#DIRECTORY, and some of the nominated airline list articles such as SkyGreece and Virgin Express would also fail WP:CORP via No Inherited Notability, and to quote from WP:CORP: An organization is not notable merely because a notable person or event was associated with it. A corporation is not notable merely because it owns notable subsidiaries. One other Airline destination list (List of US Airways Express destinations) is largely part of a defunct main carrier (US Airways) where some of the information may easily be covered in the related parent articles.
The airline lists specifically nominated in this AFD are related to companies that have since closed down and ceased services. Many of the limited sources in the nominated articles are largely from an archived versions of the closed airlines' websites and would not pass WP:INDEPENDENT and WP:V.
WP:BEFORE is not compulsory, however a lot of sources either points back to mirror websites of Wikipedia or archived references from aviation blog / community sources such as airlineroute.net or airliners.net and from the former airline's websites.
As per the last AFD, I'm open to suggestions, but considering the limited sources that may rescue those articles, For now, I would suggest Delete as the nominator. Coastie43 (talk) 02:22, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

- Delete all - all the same problems with the previous similar AfDs. As far as I can see, these are all defunct airlines and the lists claim to be destinations at the point of closure. This information could be tediously checked against published route-maps but that wouldn't be am independent source. It could be collated from various databases but that would be getting close to WP:OR, and I'm not clear how it would be possible to create a page without one or the other. Fundamentally I think there are better places to find this information and WP is not everything WP:NOTEVERYTHING JMWt (talk) 19:29, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
- Delete all - Per the RFC, per WP:NOT, and per WP:CORP. Articles exhaustively listing routine, run-of-the-mill services provided by a business are a straight-forward contravention of WP:NOTCATALOGUE. Articles sourced only to the company providing those services and run-of-the-mill stories in insufficiently-independent industry press fail WP:NCORP. A regularly-updated board listing the services of a company is a violation of WP:NOTNEWS.
- The TL;DR version is there is no reason why we should keep what are essentially the equivalent of a list of all the cities that Blockbuster Video had branches in on 7th August 1989. We do not exhaustively list the services of a company, still less exhaustively list the services of a company on a random and essentially meaningless date. This applies regardless of the notability of the company that provides those services.
- PS - JMWt I think the WP:OR point is valid but also that it would apply even if the company was not defunct. This is because these lists always include "terminated" destinations, but the only way that you can confirm that these destinations are terminated is to go to the website of the airline in question and see that they do not list it as a destination - that is, you have to infer something from the source that it does not explicitly state (i.e., WP:OR). Even if a news story can be found saying that the service has been terminated, this only confirms that the service was terminated as of the date of that story, not either at the date given in the article (typically one years in the past - e.g. the Air Berlin list is supposed to be accurate as of October 2017) or at present. This is because airline services change week-to-week constantly and they may well have started serving that destination again. FOARP (talk) 10:15, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
- I think, on reflection, the WP:OR point is more likely to be important for airlines that are still running; it's possible that a RS could be found showing destinations soon before the airline closes, but almost by definition a list of destinations non-redundant airline is almost inevitably going to be sourced as I've described above.
- I guess I'm biased but to me I can't see why would host this information for any airline, redundant or not. JMWt (talk) 12:16, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

- Keep - the article needs a thorough rewrite, however, the subject is almost definitely notable. Marca published a lengthy retirement announcement for her which is quote-heavy but still contains enough independent content, in my view. Another article from Marca, again, has a few quotes but plenty of analysis from David Menayo, one of their main women's football journalists. Olimpia Todo Dia contains a lot of information that we could add to the article. Yle, essentially the Finnish version of the BBC, wrote this lengthy piece specifically about her. Helsingin Sanomat, a major news source in Finland, also provides what appears to be significant coverage in this article but sadly it's paywalled, however, given that the first sentence translates to Aline Reis, who plays for Brazil in THE Women's World Cup, is one of the most famous goalkeepers in the world of soccer today. I would be willing to bet that the article is non-trivial coverage of her. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 10:45, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

I have multiple reasons for putting this in an AfD.
1. The person who wrote most of the article has the username Marazano. If you check him on the French Wikipedia, you will see that his user page says that he is an author. 2. For me, it fails WP:GNG, because the vast majority of the article only praises him for his writings, and the vast majority of it is unsourced. The only sources are ones confirming he wrote those books, not that they have gotten "critical acclaim" and "positive reviews", like the article states. 3. I have put this on AfD before, but only 1 person voted (excluding a sockpuppet). Cheers! // 🌶️Jalapeño🌶️ Don't click this link! 14:45, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

- Strewth' the sourcing is rubbish! The second reference no longer points at anything to do with Marazano at all, and the other three barely mention his name. They are indeed reviews of the books, but only the sort of review I would expect of any book that's been published. He's clearly been involved in some successful books. What we really need here is some input from someone who actually knows about French Bande Dessinée who can assess which of the plethora of reviews are meaningful.

- Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:
SourcesPeople 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.

The article notes: "When Yee Jee Tso was cast as Chang Lee in 1996’s Doctor Who TV Movie, he saw the role as just another job. He didn’t realise that, once Doctor Who gets its claws into you, it doesn’t let go easily. The series followed him and changed his life forever. ... now, 20 years on from the TV Movie, Yee Jee proves his own devotion to Doctor Who in a new book, Time and Spaces. At the heart of the book are a series of photographs taken by Yee Jee during the movie’s production, which, after laying forgotten in a box for years, are seeing the light of day here for the first time. The book also features snippets taken from Yee Jee’s collection of production documents, along with some new photos taken by the actor of locations used during filming in Vancouver, Canada, his home town."
The article later notes: "Yee Jee latest acting job is in Birth of the Dragon, a movie telling the tale of action star Bruce Lee’s run-in with a Shaolin monk in 1960s San Francisco – but still his 20-year-old role in Doctor Who won’t let him go. In recent years, he’s starred (not as Chang Lee, but sometimes co-starring with Daphne Ashbrook) in four Doctor Who and Bernice Summerfield audio dramas for Big Finish Productions."

The article notes: "When Vancouver actor Yee Jee Tso says he has seen his acting career come to life, it is not just a figure of speech. Tso starred in the Global CanWest teen television drama Madison as Twister, only to have the character die at the end of the show's first season in 1994. But the producers were so impressed by the 21-year-old actor that they used a little creative licence to bring him back to life in the current season as Twister's identical cousin, Grant Wong. "Usually, when you get killed off in a series, that's it," says Tso, who also recently completed work on a movie filming in Vancouver. He plays a street kid named Chang Lee in Doctor Who, which stars Paul McGann as the time-travelling doctor in a Fox TV movie that carries on from where the British sci-fi series left off in 1989. "Things have really started coming together for me this year," says Tso. "It's good to be alive.""

Tso had been a regular in Madison and had a recurring role in Fox's Sliders as Wing; he had done a lot of stage work and had met Roberts briefly when they had worked on the TV movie Past Perfect.
