Plain and simple, this is not a real organization. The vast majority of the references in this text are either 1.) unrelated to the subject of any military air assets in Kosovo, 2.) SELFPUB that make no direct mention of a "Kosovo Air Force" (and are apparently authored by the editor behind this article), or 3.) are citations to Wikipedia itself. Altogether, this might even qualify as a WP:HOAX. For this reason, I don't see it as a suitable merge/redirect candidate. ~ Pbritti (talk) 23:49, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

- Delete - Kosovo does not have an independent air force. A Google search of "Forca Ajrore e Kosoves" gives no results confirming that the name is in use, so I think it's safe to say that this is a hoax. - ZLEA T\C 00:49, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete I have sometimes commented on an article that I have seen hoaxes that are better referenced, This is one of them. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 02:40, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment. Keep anything that is verifiably true and rename to Aviation units of the Kosovo military. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 07:30, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- There is no precedent for this sort of article. There is no verifiable information that suggests that the aviation assets are organized into any independently administered units. Relevant material regarding some aerial assets in the Kosovar military are addressed in Kosovo Security Force. ~ Pbritti (talk) 13:30, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- It would make more sense to split off the entire "Equipment" section if the article became too large, but I'm not sure it's reached that point yet. - ZLEA T\C 15:16, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

- Can you please give us an example of a reliable source that states that there is a branch of the KSF called the "Kosovo Air Force" or "Forca Ajrore e Kosoves"? Just one source will do. - ZLEA T\C 01:09, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

Also noting that the image for "Batllava Airport" is actually of Toledo Express Airport of Toledo, Ohio and the image for Sllatina Underground Airbase is of "Betset airfield" from Israel, per the commons data.

Can't seem to find any sources that really discuss this subject in depth beyond plot summaries of movies it appeared in. The article is currently very poorly sourced, and the situation doesn't seem like it can improve. Not sure on an ATD to this, given it's a very general location, and not really discussed on the series page. Pokelego999 (talk) 23:44, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

- Delete - The current article is basically entirely unsourced, and I am not finding reliable sources for either Monsterland or Monster Island outside of plot summaries of the movies they appeared in. I don't think a redirect would work in this case because not only is there no actual clear target to redirect to, but this would also make a terrible and very implausible search term. Even if someone can recommend a proper target to redirect to, I would still advocate deleting this, and instead having two separate redirect pages, one for "Monsterland" and one for "Monster Island".

I wondering if this on it's own article is right. I would assume there is a better article to merge and redirect this too. However I am unsure, I simply don't feel this little bit (stub) need a separate article. The information should be added somewhere else, but I am unsure where. Maybe other participants can suggest a better venue for the content to be and redirected too, hence this nomination. Govvy (talk) 16:29, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

- Keep: "Just another item hit by a missile in an ongoing war"... with 8 people killed. I guess 8 people killed is now insignificant for some. But for others, each attack on civilian objects with such fatalities should be recorded in history. For reference, Gošić killings also has "only" 8 people killed, and also has its own article.--3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 16:38, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

- Keep redirect & merge into Russian strikes against Ukrainian infrastructure (2022–present). For the above deletes: while I agree this article shouldn't be kept, delete should be a last resort option. From going through a lot of the Russo-Ukrainian articles, you'd be surprised how many would benefit from mergers of these sorts of things, even if just a sentence or two. Leaving a redirect is a perfectly reasonable, common-place thing to do, and for an attack with casualties, I don't see any reason why not to leave one.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This is one I had to look at deeply, but in all honesty it fails SIGCOV and notability. All the coverage is minor quotes and no real in-depth analysis or discussion outside of possibly Gavin Jasper's statement, and not much indication why Min-Min is any more important than another other character from ARMS, let alone notable as a fictional character.
Trying to find additional sources discussing the subject turned out fruitless also, outside of a lot of articles mentioning she exists. Kung Fu Man (talk) 17:54, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
ADDENDUM: While there are additional sources in the previous AfD, I will argue that they don't offer enough, as they're isolated to gameplay of that particular Smash Bros. title and not really much even then.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 18:01, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Fictional elements and Video games. Kung Fu Man (talk) 17:54, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete This article suffers from a common problem in fictional character articles: trying to Voltron a bunch of trivial mentions to make a full article. This and this are ones I consider SIGCOV, so it does get close, but IMO does not pass it - everything else is trivial (i.e. a simple announcement) or primary, or from a content farm website that doesn't count towards notability per consensus. I certainly think a List of Arms (video game) characters would work well, but this character alone? Not really happening. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 20:02, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete - Exactly as Zxcvbnm said, the sources are a bunch of trivial mentions or quotes cherry picked out of general reviews of the game, basically being used as a WP:REFBOMB to give the illusion of genuine significant coverage. I would also have no objection to using this as a Redirect to Arms (video game), if other editors would prefer. Rorshacma (talk) 21:16, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
- Keep - I agree with the verdict of the previous AFD. Not to mention, there's been more added since. Even if we're not counting the CBR and Screen Rant sources, the character had her own review, base on her appearance in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, by IGN, which is cited in the article. Then there's the Destructoid and Kotaku article which goes more in-depth on her inclusion in the game too. Surely, these give indication that she's more important than most of the characters from ARMS. MoonJet (talk) 03:10, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
- But those are due to being in Smash Bros, and are the same level of commentary any Smash Bros. character received. It doesn't display actual importance or commentary on her, especially when compared to Twintelle, who came from the same games but actively received analysis. It's refbombing with small quotes instead simply because she was in Smash.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 22:28, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
- But not all the Smash characters received IGN reviews, not even all the DLC characters. Coverage pertaining to her appearance in Smash Ultimate does not and should not negate her notability. These sources pass what we look for in WP:GNG, that being significant coverage. If multiple in-depth articles for her isn't significant coverage, then I don't know what is.

Nominating this page for deletion as it does not fall under WP:N guidelines, especially as a biography of a living person. None of the following information that the article presents is significanct to warrant an entire wikipedia article dedicated to this living person:
1. She is a journalist and human rights activist - her contributions to the field to do not satisfy WP:JOURNALIST.
2. Her father and husband are Hamas terrorists who have spent time in prison - neither are relevant to her notability as per WP:INVALIDBIO.
3. She has been arrested numerous times - The perpetrator of the crime is not a renowned national nor international figure, and the motive of her crimes (although poorly documented) is unlikely to be unusual. Therefore this is also not satisfactory under WP:CRIMINAL.
Given the article cannot establish her notability, I am suggesting that this article be deleted until (if) she does something noteworthy. Dazzling4 (talk) 19:39, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

- Keep: Nomination focuses on all the wrong things here. The notability for this biography is clearly based on WP:GNG and WP:SUSTAINED, rather than a particular vocation - news hits for the individual are prolific and span many years, as is plain from even a brief search. The nominator's POV language, "
Hamas terrorists
", and evident fixation on this page, having previously nominated the page for deletion when not EC (resulting in a procedural close), before diving right back into an AfD nomination after passing the 500/30 mark, do not inspire confidence here at all. Iskandar323 (talk) 04:42, 15 November 2023 (UTC)- As you correctly pointed out, the previous nomination resulted in a procedural close. The validity of the AfD nomination did not play a role in its closure.

And while the validity of your arguments may not have played a role in the previous close, your opening statement here is clearly not neutral, per MOS:TERRORIST, but leans on a POV.

- How does this fact contribute to the discussion? My edit count and EC status are not relevant to Bushra al-Tawil's notability. Dazzling4 (talk) 14:33, 15 November 2023 (UTC)
- Use of "Hamas terrorist" is also irrelevant to this discussion since talk pages are not subject to NPOV. Not to mention that the source used to include her family in Bushra al-Tawil#Family describes Hamas as a "terror group." Dazzling4 (talk) 14:56, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

- Perhaps it can be merged into Palestinian prisoners in Israel? Homerethegreat (talk) 10:06, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete: After reviewing the arguments and the subject's coverage, it seems clear that Bushra al-Tawil's notability hinges primarily on her detentions, aligning with the concept of One-event notability. This principle suggests that if a person or entity is notable for only one event (or in this case a series of detentions), they may not merit a standalone article. In this case, the references to al-Tawil predominantly focus on her detentions, with minimal coverage about other aspects of her life or contributions. Furthermore, the main source of information about her, the 'Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network', does not qualify as an independent WP:RS. Notability on Wikipedia is not inherited by virtue of being covered in multiple languages or having transient news coverage. It requires sustained, in-depth, and independent coverage by reliable sources, as outlined in WP:SIGCOV.
- I also noticed that at the end of September 2023, Israel was holding 1,310 people in administrative detention, based on [2], so being detained seems to be relatively common. Marokwitz (talk) 21:10, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Can you explain how exactly are repeated arrests of a journalist, spaced over a course of more than 10 years, constitute only "one event"? We have multiple sources giving her WP:SIGCOV over a period of more than 10 years. And even if you're right, then isn't that cause to keep this article and move it to Arrests of Bushra al-Tawil? VR talk 04:07, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
- Her arrests are covered in Palestinian prisoners in Israel. But, other than being arrested and released multiple times, she doesn't seem much different from many other people. No evidence of notable journalism works; It is not clear what she was accused of, no details of her trial are presented. If she was a notable person, then surely reliable sources would cover such basic things? That's what 'significant coverage' requires. Marokwitz (talk) 14:53, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
"It is not clear what she was accused of, no details of her trial are presented."
- welcome to the Israeli justice system and the wonderful world of administrative detention. Iskandar323 (talk) 14:55, 25 November 2023 (UTC)- She had a trial in 2011 and was then sentenced again by a court in 2015, so there was at least some judicial process here . Marokwitz (talk) 15:06, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- Her arrests are covered in Palestinian prisoners in Israel. But, other than being arrested and released multiple times, she doesn't seem much different from many other people. No evidence of notable journalism works; It is not clear what she was accused of, no details of her trial are presented. If she was a notable person, then surely reliable sources would cover such basic things? That's what 'significant coverage' requires. Marokwitz (talk) 14:53, 25 November 2023 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:25, 21 November 2023 (UTC)- Delete She served in Israeli prison, is the daughter of a senior Hamas member... I don't see what else is notable... I do agree that its best she be merged into another article. How about the Palestinian prisoners in Israel ? Homerethegreat (talk) 10:05, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
- She is already covered there. Marokwitz (talk) 08:42, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete - At best, there is nothing more than WP:1E notability. I'd suggest merge but this article violates NPOV with heavily biased and unreliable sources used that it would require a complete rewrite anyway. The sources cited are all about the one event or non-reliable (except for [3] which is a passing mention in an article about her father's arrest as a terrorist). Thmymerc (talk) 12:55, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- Keep - definitely not 1E, with coverage of her arrests in 2019 and 2020. There is extensive coverage in Arabic in al-Jazeera, al Araby al Jadeed, and el-Watan, and with further coverage by Reporters Without Borders and Coalition For Women In Journalism clears GNG easily. nableezy - 13:22, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. First, she is one of thousands of Palestinians in Israeli prisons, so her detentions are not notable. Second, her being the son of a senior Hamas leader, a relationship that has led to coverage of her detentions, is WP:INHERITED. Third, entries in Adameer and Samidoun, advocacy groups and not RS, are irrelevant for establishing notability. Fourth, most of the Arabic-language coverage cited above is also based on who her father is. Longhornsg (talk) 01:44, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- Notability is determined by sourcing, not by how many Palestinians are held in Israeli prisons. And no, the Arabic sources are about her, which anybody who even uses google translate can see. That also is not what WP:INHERITED means, what that means is by itself being related, either a person or a topic, to some notable person does not make one notable, but where the sources cover that individual that gives them their own notability. Addameer is certainly a reliable source, widely cited by other reliable sources. nableezy - 04:07, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry, gonna have to disagree with you on Addameer. It's an advocacy organization. Though I guess, then you'd agree that the ADL, AJC, UN Watch, et al are RS as well, as they are widely cited in other RS. But this is prob not the place for this discussion. Longhornsg (talk) 22:06, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
- ADL is widely cited on WP. Those other groups are not treated as reliable by other sources, so we should not either. Pretending like Addameer is treated like UN Watch is silly, and a basic association fallacy to boot. Each of these things are evaluated on their own merits, not based on some random person on the internet saying "it's an advocacy organization". So is Amnesty International, and that too is reliable. nableezy - 22:25, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

- Delete. Changing my response. Im not sure there's enough for WP:ACTOR or even WP:GNG. There are a number of short articles specifically related to her death, and one article about her in a magazine from 2008. I'm not convinced there was enough WP:SIGCOV of her. A lot of tabloid stuff, and mostly just mentioning her because she was dating Sean Combs. Zenomonoz (talk) 20:44, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Keep (saw notice at AN). In addition to general sourcing improvements by Melonkelon (her non-Diddy life briefly summarized by AJC), sources of significant coverage include this Essence dual profile (page two) and the Jet cover story. The Source article apparently has more but only offline. These alone suggest notability, but there are also other decent sources to add such as this Atlanta Constitution writeup of Three Brown Girls, this remembrance in Bustle (more than a typical aggregation of social media posts), and this semi-independent profile for Runway magazine.

- Keep. The erasure of Kim's page will play into the narrative that Sean "Diddy" Combs is trying to cover up something nefarious. Let's not turn Wikipedia into a gossip rag. Her page should NOT be deleted as she's a significant figure in the world of Black American celebrities as both a model, a wife/girlfriend, and a mother to children who are now famous themselves. Also, per her status, sources will be media magazines and other smaller publications most likely, which tracks as non A-list ethnic celebrities generally aren't covered by mainstream media. — J (talk) 00:15, 26 November 2023 (EST) — Note: An editor has expressed a concern that Chaoticdiva (talk • contribs) has been canvassed to this discussion.

- Keep per Hameltion and Dam!ta. I think there is significant, independent and reliable coverage of Porter. She had a cover story and 5-page spread in Jet magazine; both her death and cause of death were covered in major publications like Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, Billboard, Essence and The Sydney Morning Herald; she received coverage for her role in co-founding Three Brown Girls and for her roles in film and TV. As Dam!ta mentioned, she had been a model since the 1980s, and had shot a number of ad campaigns. Article should be expanded rather than deleted, as based on what I have read, she was modeling internationally with Wilhelmina Models, so there is likely some more coverage of that time period. As Hameltion mentioned, not all of this coverage is available online; some of the coverage is only available in printed magazines like The Source and Runway Magazine (and she was on the cover of the latter). Melonkelon (talk) 19:53, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

WP:BLP of a fundraiser, not properly sourced as passing inclusion criteria. Apart from stating that he exists, the only other attempt at a notability claim here is notable relatives -- but notability is not inherited, so just being related to famous people isn't enough in and of itself. The only sourcing present here, however, is a staff profile on the self-published website of his own employer, which is not a notability-making source.
As I don't have solid access to archived British media coverage beyond what I could find in a simple Google search, I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with better access to such resources can find enough to salvage it -- but all I get on Google is more primary sources that aren't support for notability, and nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have more than just primary sources.

- Very weak keep. There's a broad claim to notability here that is not strictly inherited, and absent a good WP:ATD that can guide readers to the right information, I think I'd lean towards an IAR keep (noting that there is plenty of verifiable info) over a delete that would leave the encyclopedia a bit worse off. There's no single best redirect or merge target. —siroχo 06:48, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

An obscure and not notable political party that participated in two elections gaining no seats. Previous version incorrectly stated that it gained three seats in the parliament (which would imply notability), but according to well regarded biographical dictionary of Seimas members, it was another Jewish party that gained three seats.

- Oppose, it seems that the party was notable, it was part of the parliament. 1922 Lithuanian parliamentary election article clearly says that the party had three MPs. Also later members of this party were on the list of the Minorities Electoral Bloc, so that's why it seems that Achdus didn't have any MPs in 1923 elections, but they had for example Isaak Holcberg. Marcelus (talk) 23:07, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
- @Marcelus: Achdus did not have 3 seats in the Seimas. That is an error (since 2012!). I fixed one table but not the other. The 3 seats were actually another Jewish party (Zionist group For the Nation and Autonomy). Renata•3 23:16, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

- Comment from the nomination, it's not clear which parties are being confused. My understanding is that what is being referred to as Achdus in Lithuania, is the Jewish Peoples Party, which was more commonly known by its Yiddish name, Folkspartei and for which we have an article already which covers both Poland and Lithuania. In the 1920 Lithuanian elections, the Jewish parties formed joint electoral tickets, which produced 6 representatives, two of whom were from Folkspartei/JPP/Achdus. In 1923, there was at least one Folskpartei member elected - Ozer Finkelstein. So I would tend towards keep with a focus on the post-WW1 period for this article, although a rename to Jewish People's Party (Lithuania) might be appropriate. Regards, --Goldsztajn (talk) 00:20, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Goldsztajn: That's the thing that I can't find any sources to explain what this "Achdus" was or where it came from. It might be misspelled and should read "Achdut". It maybe be related to Agudat Yisrael or World Agudath Israel. The article was created solely based on an erroneous claim that it won 3 seats in 1922 elections. Renata•3 00:44, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @Renata3 - Achdut (אַחְדוּת) is a Hebrew word, it means unity. Agudat Yisrael/World Agudath Israel are religious political movements, the JPP/Folkspartei was secular. What I can see from is that in the 1920 election there is a braod coalition list including Zionists, religious and non/anti-Zionists - which includes the Folkspartei/JPP who take two seats. In 1922 the JPP contests the election separately and fails to win any seats, whereas the Zionist Group takes 3. This article in Lithuanian covers national minorities in the Lithuanian elections for the period 1920-1926, there's three mentions of Achdus. We need cleanup and discussion on the exact name, but I'm not convinced delete is the appropriate option here. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 02:01, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Goldsztajn: I saw the article, but it's of zero help - it just states how many votes were received (based on Lithuanian statistical yearbook) in 1922 and 1923. Renata•3 02:15, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hi - @Renata3 - I wouldn't say *zero* help, it clearly shows that Achdus relates to the JPP. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 02:40, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hmmm ... ok, so looking at this further - I wonder is this JPP-Achdus in 1922 a split from the Folkspartei? @Renata3 Do you have access to candidate lists for the 1922 election? Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 03:12, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Goldsztajn: according to this (page 3) there were 4 candidates in Kaunas: Nachmanas Rachmilevičius, Ber Šapiro (rabbi), Izakas Golcbergas , Fišelis Beras (merchant). Renata•3 03:36, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @Renata3 - thanks that very helpful! ok, this is beginning to make sense now, I think! The problem is the inconsistencies regarding the name; I mistakenly accepted at face value the attribution in the article to the JPP. Now that you've sent the newspaper with the candidates it makes more sense and I can see the title as "Jewish Peoples Election Group - Unity". I'm guessing Achdus is a Lithuanian rendering of the Hebrew word (?), which would make sense given the list of candidates you've just provided, who were definitely not from the secular side of politics. I'd now probably lean towards a redirect to Natan Rachmilewitz/Nachmanas Rachmilevičius. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 04:27, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Actually, Issac Golzberg/Izakas Golcbergas might be the better redirect as it seems he's the only person actually to sit in the Seimas under the banner of Achdus. His entry in the Seimas website mentions membership of Achdus. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 04:38, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

- Hmmm ... ok, so looking at this further - I wonder is this JPP-Achdus in 1922 a split from the Folkspartei? @Renata3 Do you have access to candidate lists for the 1922 election? Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 03:12, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hi - @Renata3 - I wouldn't say *zero* help, it clearly shows that Achdus relates to the JPP. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 02:40, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Goldsztajn: I saw the article, but it's of zero help - it just states how many votes were received (based on Lithuanian statistical yearbook) in 1922 and 1923. Renata•3 02:15, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @Renata3 - Achdut (אַחְדוּת) is a Hebrew word, it means unity. Agudat Yisrael/World Agudath Israel are religious political movements, the JPP/Folkspartei was secular. What I can see from is that in the 1920 election there is a braod coalition list including Zionists, religious and non/anti-Zionists - which includes the Folkspartei/JPP who take two seats. In 1922 the JPP contests the election separately and fails to win any seats, whereas the Zionist Group takes 3. This article in Lithuanian covers national minorities in the Lithuanian elections for the period 1920-1926, there's three mentions of Achdus. We need cleanup and discussion on the exact name, but I'm not convinced delete is the appropriate option here. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 02:01, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Goldsztajn: That's the thing that I can't find any sources to explain what this "Achdus" was or where it came from. It might be misspelled and should read "Achdut". It maybe be related to Agudat Yisrael or World Agudath Israel. The article was created solely based on an erroneous claim that it won 3 seats in 1922 elections. Renata•3 00:44, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Fails WP:GNG. This is not a notable rivalry. It's been a totally one-sided series between two lower-level programs in which Catholic has won 21 games to one game for Gallaudet. There are random passing references to a "rivalry" (e.g., here), but nothing in independent, reliable sources that deals with the series in depth -- and certainly no SIGCOV of a "rivalry". Cbl62 (talk) 20:56, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2023 November 21. —cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 21:10, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment - Who won more games in it doesn't really matter. For instance, Lance Armstrong beat Jan Ullrich almost every time they raced, yet they are rivals. Sugar Ray Robinson beat Jake LaMotta every time except once, but they are rivals. Mitsuharu Misawa beat Toshiaki Kawada every single time from about 1990-1998, but nobody would say they aren't rivals. KatoKungLee (talk) 21:24, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how wrestling, boxing, and bike racing rivals have any relevance here, and there are no stand-alone rivalry articles on those pairings in any event. But my contention is this: Competitiveness isn't determinative by itself, but it absolutely should be one of the factors we consider in deciding whether a series of college football games has risen to the level of a notable rivalry that is worthy of a stand-alone encyclopedia article. The depth of SIGCOV is, of course, the most important issue, but in close cases, other attributes may factor into the assessment as well, e.g, competitiveness, geographic proximity (schools with geographic proximity and especially bordering states more likely to generate animosity that makes for a notable rivalry), the existence of a rivalry trophy, frequency of competition (teams that face each other every year are more likely to be rivals). In this case, there is no in-depth coverage of this series as a rivalry, and the other factors support the conclusion that this is not a Wiki-notable rivalry. Cbl62 (talk) 22:50, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- For example, the LSU Tigers and Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns have played each other 22 times dating back to 1902, and LSU has won all 22 matches, mostly by huge margins. See here. Despite the geographic proximity within football-crazed Louisiana, the one-sided nature of the series makes it hard for followers to develop a true rivalry. Cbl62 (talk) 23:28, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Cbl62 - I would personally rank SIGCOV as the most important above all. The problem with competitiveness is results change (see Michigan-Ohio State where Michigan was undefeated early) and with proximity, you get situations like Notre Dame and USC, which are nowhere close to each other. I do also think rivalries in general are partly a media narrative than anything else.KatoKungLee (talk) 02:16, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, SIGCOV is the paramount touchstone. The other factors shed light in close cases. Cbl62 (talk) 02:26, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

- Müller, Meinard (2007-09-09). Information Retrieval for Music and Motion. Springer Science & Business Media. ISBN 978-3-540-74048-3.
The article notes: "The number of pulses per quarter note (PPQN) is to be specified at the beginning in the so-called header of a MIDI file and refers to all subsequent MIDI messages."
- Sweetwater (1997-12-09). "PPQN (Pulses Per Quarter Note, sometimes Parts Per Quarter Note)". Retrieved 2023-11-28.
The article notes: "The timing resolution of a MIDI sequencer. PPQN indicates the number of divisions a quarter note has been split into, and directly relates to the ability of the sequencer to accurately represent fine rhythmic variations in a performance, or to recreate the “feel” of a performance. Older sequencers were capable of 96 PPQN (sometimes even less), which often resulted in a stiff “quantized” feel to the music (even if it hadn’t actually been quantized). Current versions can reach 768 PPQN or even higher resolutions, which is more than adequate for most musical applications. Note that the resolution of the sequencer is especially important at slower tempos. If your sequencer is limited to a lower resolution, one trick is the double the tempo of the song, then perform the parts in half time. This effectively results in a doubling of resolution."
- Loops and Grooves: The Musician's Guide to Groove Machines and Loop Sequencers. Hal Leonard Corporation. 2003. ISBN 978-0-634-04813-5.
The article notes: "If a sequencer has a limited number of steps, which was always the case with analog and digital hardware sequencers, the concept of resolution becomes an important factor. In this context, resolution means the number of steps used to represent a note or measure. Resolution is a numerical value expressed as pulses per quarter note or ppqn."

- Keep. This group has had 13 (sic) albums on the national Oricon chart in Japan, three of which are listed here, and thus this easily passes WP:NBAND. Their latest single went to #12 on the chart and stayed on the chart for over 3 months, as shown here. They also pass several other criteria of WP:NBAND, including #5, #6, #10, and #11 (some of these were already reflected in the English article).

While I found a couple passing references to a "Georgia–Kentucky rivalry" on Newspapers.com, I don't believe this matchup has received sufficient sustained coverage to qualify as a rivalry worthy of a stand-alone article. Jweiss11 (talk) 16:40, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. Not finding depth of coverage about a rivalry. I did find a passing reference or two. E.g., here ("The Georgia-Kentucky rivalry has been a little something less than friendly."). And one of the sources questioned whether it was a top-level rivalry. See here ("The Georgia-Kentucky rivalry certainly doesn't rank among the SEC's most heated."). Yes, the teams have played more than 75 times dating back to 1939, but other factors weigh negatively: (1) lack of geographic proximity/not border states; (2) not a competitive series (Georgia has dominated throughout the history--63–12–2); (3) no trophy or named series; and (4) lack of ranked matchups (2023 matched #1 vs #20 but that's about as good as it gets).

- Geoland and NBuilding encompass the aspect of being a geographical location and the physical building of the stadium. Yes you need sources to establish this and there are sources, the place has links to a historic figure of George Latham (footballer), which adds the historical aspect. You have a multi-use venue, so a redirect straight to the football club is a no. Upon a google search, there are loads of small news articles about the place. That all adds up, the two BBC sources in the article [15], [16] and with the other sources is more than enough for basic GNG. Your nomination is floored. Thank you.

An IP user claiming to be the article subject has requested deletion of this biography per WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE. According to the IP editor they have retired and "no longer want or need a profile".

- Delete. Sources are affiliated, simple business announcements, bare mentions in discussion of the industry or company, etc. The "Businessweek profile" is a Bloomberg listing. Not finding anything better on google search, it all seems to be bare mentions in stories about the industry/acquisition of the company. I'm not seeing notability. Valereee (talk) 16:41, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete (reluctant): this seems even A7 speediable to me, and the sources fall short of GNG. My only reservation is that I wouldn't want to encourage the notion that simply because the (alleged) subject
"no longer want[s] or need[s] a profile {sic} on wikipedia"
, we should get rid of it. Still, the article contains no evidence of notability (and I for one can't be bothered to go looking for it), so let's nix it. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:55, 21 November 2023 (UTC) - Comment: Looking at it, I thought "delete", but I haven't looked to see whether there are sources that could save it.

- Delete as non-notable. Tangents: Mr. Heller and his father, Adam Heller should not be using Wikipedia (and our ranking in Google search results) for free PR, and I agree with the above: Wikipedia is not at their beck and call. If Therasense, Inc. existed, I'd propose redirecting there. FWIW, that company also appears to fail WP:ORGCRIT, so much so that the primary topic of Therasense is not even the company, but a court case establishing precedent in U.S. patent law (what would link to Therasense in Wikipedia, DuckDuckGo query). Similar situation for his other companies, SynAgile and AngioScore. Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 00:51, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete - even disregarding the subject's request, it seems this biography shouldn't have been on Wikipedia in the first place. Mr. Heller's claims to notability are founding and/or managing a series of medical/pharmaceutical companies of which none have coverage on Wikipedia, and having filed several patents (which generally does not confer notability; anyone can file a patent). Reliable source coverage is practically nonexistent: he is mentioned in passing in several articles about his company or their products, or in coverage of his father Adam Heller's endeavours. I personally did not find any in-depth coverage of Mr. Heller himself, and see no reason not to grant the request to delete. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 02:30, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

The review notes: "This contemporary tale is a look at a college campus and the people involved in it, including a philosophy teacher who struggles over the death of his wife and simultaneously grapples with a debt he owes to drug dealers; a student who thinks he may have found the girl of his dreams but isn't mature ' enough to leave behind getting wasted with his friends; a student determined to carry out a hateful act; and a teacher who struggles with his sexual preference. Some of the actors are fine in their roles, some are, well, less than fine. But standing out from among the performers is Jim Siokos as Tom Adams, an instructor who is in debt to drug suppliers. He's one of those rare actors who is so natural it's uncanny he's beyond good. Bluebox would bode well to use his talent again."

The article notes: "Beck's latest release, "University Heights," will be screened this weekend at the 8th Annual Hardacre Film Festival. More than 70 films were submitted for consideration. ... A panel of five judges named "University Heights" one of the top films in the festival. The 96-minute film is about the emotional struggles of four characters on a college campus: a love-struck teenager with drug problems, an English teacher with sex issues, a philosophy teacher who owes thousands of dollars to a drug cartel and a racist student who realizes he hates himself more than anyone else. ...

Delete. While CESRA no doubt is an established body that has facilitated a lot of academic and research activity, the organisation itself has attracted no significant coverage in independent sources that I can find (not even basic information, like how it was founded). It would be helpful if those saying this is clearly notable could show their working, because then I would be happy to change my !vote. Bon courage (talk) 12:43, 21 November 2023 (UTC)Delete: The research of scientists associated with CESRA is clearly notable, as proven by a high number of publications. However, that doesn't make CESRA itself notable. I did a search for articles about CESRA, and virtually nothing came up. I'm happy to change my vote if porven wrong, but as of now, the discussion is textbook But there must be sources! Maybe the CESRA article should be kept nevertheless, but that would require a major revision of Wikipedia's notability criteria, and this discussion isn't the place for that.Cortador (talk) 12:50, 21 November 2023 (UTC)- I do in fact think there would be a case for considering distinct notability standards for professional, academic and standards organisations. But this is another discussion. Bon courage (talk) 12:53, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Comment See this [20] as a brief description. More to come. Oaktree b (talk) 14:52, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Keep See page 930 [21], and this, how they were an off-shoot of the other astronomy group and became official [22]. I think with that description and the literally hundreds of mentions and conference abstracts published over the last 50 yrs, notability can be established. Oaktree b (talk) 14:57, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Cool, I think that's enough (just) for notability, even if the mentions in conference abstracts aren't. Bon courage (talk) 15:26, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

- Comment: This gives further context: https://eas.unige.ch/newsletter/eas_newsletter-6.pdf Oaktree b (talk) 15:06, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- I can find the basic information that tells me that it was formed in 1970 and held a joint meeting with JOSO in 1974 (Brandt & Mattig, p. 139) , and not in sources by Kontar or Fokker. Unsurprisingly, it was in a book on astronomy organizations. Perhaps that's the sort of place to look. Zwaan 1974, p. 930 does flesh that out a bit, and this gets us to 1974, at least.

- "Ultimate History Horror Movie Chainsaws".
The article notes: "Because of their immediate association with Tobe Hopper’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, an indisputable horror classic, chainsaws have been a fixture of the genre, spanning from Leatherface to Ash Williams to Dead Rising. But motorized saws are also a uniquely American trope; other nations who specialize in scares, like England and Japan, don’t carry the baggage of Westward expansion. Away from the bustle of cities, the ghosts of native genocides haunt the rural American wilds like boogeymen. No tools symbolize the expansion spirit greater than axes and saws, but their modern incarnations have become monstrous."

- "A man, a plan, a chainsaw: How a power tool took center stage in Argentina's presidential race".
The article notes: "Finchelstein agrees most of Milei’s supporters will view the chainsaw metaphorically, but a fraction may not. Asked about the potential for the charged-up rhetoric to incite violence, Milei’s campaign said the chainsaw is merely a symbol. "
- "Shack Chat: What's your favorite video game chainsaw?".
The article notes: "If you’re going to rip and tear, why not do it with fashion and flair? Why punch things when you can render them into tiny little bits with a chainsaw? The original Doom answered those questions way back in the early 90s and has continued that fine tradition since then. Getting the chainsaw made a gory experience even better in what was already a pretty damn violent game for the time. Even today the chainsaw still finds its way into the modern Doom franchise. Although I honestly don’t find the new version as enjoyable as the original as it’s more of a quick-time kill animation nowadays. Still, we’ll always have our precious memories of the original, old-school chainsaw and all the things we turned into meaty chunks with it."

- Keep and perhaps move. It's a 1290m mountain; based on the bluelinks at List of mountains and hills of Japan by height, it appears that the general consensus is that such mountains are notable. The real name is "Teppogi-no-atama" or "Teppoginoatama" (the Japanese Wikipedia page is at that name), and the current English title could be mistaken for Mount Myōjin although the Japanese names are different (-yama vs -dake, but both could be translated as "Mount"). English sources using "Teppogi-no-atama" and discussing the place in some detail include this from Japan Today and this from Timeout. Searching for the Japanese name 鉄砲木ノ頭 yields lots of hits on both Google Books and Google News, e.g. several pages of coverage in both this book and this book which are more detailed and less associated with paid tours.

DeleteKeep:seems clear that if there is no disambiguation to be done, this page is not needed.But someone has found a second reading of 山州, so there is disambiguation to be done. But all the other irrelevant stuff should be deleted. Imaginatorium (talk) 09:29, 22 November 2023 (UTC)- Keep (and reinstate the removed information) - MOS:DABRED isn't for removing information, it's for removing red links in disambiguation pages. "Unlink the entry word but still keep a blue link in the description. Red links should not be the only link in a given entry; link also to an existing article, so that a reader [...] will have somewhere to navigate to for additional information. The linked article should contain some meaningful information about the term." -- Primium (talk) 16:14, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- Can you cite the information that you think should belong, and its relationship to the article title, viz. 山州 ? There is a rationale for having redirects in WP:en for Chinese characters, in particular that a reader of Japanese (for example, like me) can look up a placename in China, without knowing the Chinese reading of the characters. But I can see no purpose in having links from one set of Chinese characters to a different set of Chinese characters. In the Sanshu disambiguation page there are two items including 山州: one goes to the actual article Yamashiro Province, the other comes back to this disambiguation page. Imaginatorium (talk) 16:27, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- MOS:DABRED clarifies the condition under which the entry of non-extant article could be kept, while doesn't mean that it has to. Will you insert the red link to an article to give it a related blue link even if the entry is added for spamming? NmWTfs85lXusaybq (talk) 23:49, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

- It's good to validate a entry from creation of a stub. It remains to decide if the proposed target could be the primary topic, in which condition WP:ONEOTHER applies and a hatnote at the top of Yamashiro Province will suffice to replace this dab page. NmWTfs85lXusaybq (talk) 10:53, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- How would a hatnote work? It seems to me that while redirects from Chinese characters (山州 in this case) are useful, a hatnote would be unnecessarily confusing to the ordinary reader, who would not recognise this reference to a rare variant name. Better to have a redirect page. Imaginatorium (talk) 14:52, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

- We are supposed to assume good faith unless there is clear evidence to the contrary. I am afraid we are risking getting stuck on WP:NEWSORGINDIA here and NOT show due respect to the thousands and thousands of legitimate newspapers both in India and Pakistan in business for many many decades!!! Let us leave it to the Wikipedia community to decide which sources are unreliable and can not be used as references on Wikipedia.
- The above article already has 10 newspaper references that are considered 'reliable sources' per WP:PKRS. I ask the nominator to please take another look...Ngrewal1 (talk) 18:04, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
- It was already decided by the Wikipedia "which sources are unreliable and can not be used as references." This is why NEWSORGINDIA exists. It is something that was decided by WP:CONSENSUS. Also, no one said the references are not from "legitimate newspapers." That is not the purpose of NEWSORGINDIA. According to that guideline, we should be careful about blindly accepting references from legitimate newspapers and look deeper into each one. For example, The Express Tribune appears to be a reliable source ("legitimate newspapers" as you say). So we assume good faith (not blind faith) that the references from this publication are good. However, NEWSORGINDIA suggests looking deeper so while looking at this The Express Tribune reference used on the Wikipedia page for Sunny Ali, you can see that the byline is "Tech Desk" (not a staff writer which indicates it is regurgitation of a press release or paid content). An online search also shows this reference which is similar in tone (as if a press release) and marked as a "sponsored post" (also posted exactly one day apart). These are all signs that this particular reference from The Express Tribune is a sponsored post and should not be considered for notability. --CNMall41 (talk) 06:04, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

- Comment While I remain concerned about the misapplication of NEWSORGINDIA as if a wave at a completely different country's media implicates all media in Pakistan, this is a promo piece that mostly regurgitates PR (NEWSORGINDIA doesn't allow one to draw that conclusion given there's no overlapping of sources). Nevertheless, this August 2023 RS piece "Tears of a get-rich-quick guru" offers an extensive and detailed analytical assessment of Ali. I'm on the fence - there's a possible case for TNT; although judicious editing and correct use of sourcing could possibly fix this. Regards,--Goldsztajn (talk) 23:22, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- For NEWSORGINDIA, I consider this to apply to the entire Indian subcontinent. As far as the sourcing, I would agree with your assessment of Rest of World piece you linked to being extensive and detailed and helps establish notability, assuming that publication is considered a reliable source. That would make a single source assuming other would agree with us. Here is an evaluation of the other sourcing on the page and unfortunately do not see anything in-depth that would allow for page cleanup. There is overlapping of sources as well. --CNMall41 (talk) 06:52, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
- 1. The Express Tribune, While this shows a byline, the article is an interview. The article is about his advice to youth. There are only four sentences “about him” in the entire article.
- 2. The Express Tribune, Byline on this is “Tech Desk” which indicates either churnalism or paid media. It is also about the company where he is CEO, not about him.
- 3. Business Recorder, churnalism and about the company. Sunny Ali gives a quote but there is nothing about him in the reference.
- 4. Aurora, Interview with the subject. Simple Q&A with no depth about the subject. Cannot be used to establish notability.
- 5. Rest of World, A single sentence saying he runs a Facebook group that offers paid ecommerce training.
- 6. The Express Tribune, reference is churnalism or paid as it shows a byline of “Our Correspondent” which a deeper search reveals it is based on this press release.
- 7. Daily Times, link times out so I cannot view the source.
- 8. Associated Press of Pakistan, quote from the subject, not “about” the subject. Also churnalism as this is printed in a few other publications such as here and here.
- 9. PT Profit, more quotes and advise from Sunny Ali, but not “about” Sunny Ali.
- 10. Daily Times, link times out so I cannot access it, but based on the title and the other sources in this assessment, I am going to assume it is more quotes from the subject since the headline is not about him.
- 11. Phone World, subject isn’t even mentioned in this reference.
- 12. Nation, written by a business partner of Ali and is basically a glowing recommendation of Ali. Nothing I would consider independent.
- For NEWSORGINDIA, I consider this to apply to the entire Indian subcontinent. As far as the sourcing, I would agree with your assessment of Rest of World piece you linked to being extensive and detailed and helps establish notability, assuming that publication is considered a reliable source. That would make a single source assuming other would agree with us. Here is an evaluation of the other sourcing on the page and unfortunately do not see anything in-depth that would allow for page cleanup. There is overlapping of sources as well. --CNMall41 (talk) 06:52, 12 November 2023 (UTC)

- Comment My concern still remains that the nominator shows a tendency to stretch things and use a broad brush. For example, WP:NEWSORGINDIA does not say anywhere that it applies to the entire Indian subcontinent, yet the nominator assumes it does! He's trashing most of the existing newspaper references as suspects for paid journalism. Where is the clear evidence that they are? In my view, promotional content in the article can be deleted or modified. How can I function as a Wikipedia editor if I start treating all the newspapers as suspects? ...Ngrewal1 (talk) 17:07, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Final relist. We could use some more new voices/opinions here. And rather than going after other editors, please engage with the source analysis that has been provided. Just stating notability exists isn't as persuasive as pointing to sources that help establish SIGCOV.

Multiple sources are needed to sustain an encyclopedia article, in this case we have only one source (GNIS). Folding in sub-features that are also sourced to GNIS gets us no closer to notability, not least because notability is not inherited. WP:BEFORE has to be proportionate to the amount of effort expended to write the article in the first place, which in this case was practically zero since this article was apparently created by bot or bot-like editing (190 articles were created by Dr. Blofeld on the same day as this one).

- I don't think so. But let's say for the sake of argument you are right.
You have a primary reference from the National Science Foundation which we can't use for notability, for fairly obvious reasons. And we have a secondary encyclopedia.
So at best you are offering two sources, of which only one is really a secondary source. Which isn't enough for inclusion.
In reality we commonly do not consider encyclopedia entries as notable in AfD debates. If we did, this would simplify hundreds of sports pages (for example) for people who only appear in old encyclopedia. JMWt (talk) 20:20, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
- I'm right because I was there at the time, and I've made the it's-encyclopaedic-because-it-is-in-other-encyclopaedias-and-constructing-a-both-generalist-and-specialist-encyclopaedia-is-what-we're-about argument at AFD. ☺
I don't think that you know what a primary source is. It's isn't Fred G. Alberts's Names. Primary sources would be the original historical sources, the maps and records somewhere in Australia, or Norway. There is in fact no reason that we cannot evaluate Fred G. Alberts's Names for the purpose of notability. Fred G. Alberts didn't name the thing, and is quite clearly wholly independent from it. Xe didn't even come from the same countries as the people who named the thing, or go on the expeditions. Xe compiled and edited xyr compilation of named Antartica things over the decades afterwards, and xyr source is a secondary source. It tells you in its introduction that it was constructed by "collection and analysis of names data from historical and contemporary sources".
And yes, we can and regularly do include topics that have enough coverage in old encyclopaedias. Not that 1995 in any way falls under that heading. Indeed, including people that have already gone through the filter of making it into encyclopaedias is a Hell of a lot better than the way that our biographical articles are often constructed. It's a Hell of a lot easier to have an encyclopaedic biography all laid out to show the way, rather than the so-often-used living persons method of throwing huge piles of tidbit or incidental press mentions together.

- Frankly, GNIS-based stuff is entirely zappable, in my view. The GNIS is wholly unreliable except for coördiates, and not even for them some of the time. Its process is quite broken. Starting again without the GNIS involvement is the best course of action. This is only tempered here in that the GNIS text has been copied almost word for word from the 1965 ANARE report, Horden Gap from the entry on page 68 and Gap Nunatak from the entry on page 56. We simply need to cite the actual report, and things like the Alberts and Stewart encyclopaedias, which were actually listed first in Britannica's bibliography for Antartica for a couple of decades and are obviously the sources to go to (although there have been two more encyclopaedias since, that Google Books doesn't know about), instead of the bloody GNIS.

- Comment - on the sources above, this is my opinion fwiw. Antarctica is essentially a unique place for two reasons: first it has essentially zero human population and second it is disputed territory. The sources used above are a) an exploratory report funded by one country making a claim to territory in uninhabited land and b) an encyclopedia which collates those named features.
- In my opinion, the first is clearly unusable for notability. Otherwise every national report naming features anywhere in the world would be notable. Which is the same as saying every feature on every map produced by an official national body is notable. Which is ridiculous.
- The second might be considered to be secondary and independent (laying aside the issue of whether there is "substantial" coverage on the pages noted above). But the fact that the territory is uninhabited and in dispute seems highly relevant - a source simply listing features on disputed land as determined by one party to the dispute would/should not be considered notable in my opinion.
- Finally I think we have to seriously question the whole concept of notability and how it applies to the uninhabited continent. Other than in encyclopedic lists of names of features which seek for completeness, who has noted these minor features? Other than a handful of scientists, nobody. There are no books or newspaper articles or anything which cover these things in substantial depth because why would there be? JMWt (talk) 17:04, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

[edit]- Wikipedia may serve as a gazetteer, with lists of features, some of which have their own article. WP:GEONATURAL says an article may be suitable if there is information beyond statistics and coordinates: enough verifiable content for an encyclopedic article. The entries in Geographic Names of the Antarctic meet that definition. It is irrelevant whether anyone lives there, whether it is in disputed territory, and how mny people are interested in it. A crater on the moon may have an article if there is enough to be said about it. Aymatth2 (talk) 19:31, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
- Well that's all your opinion. I don't believe that the encyclopedia you cite meets the standard of substantial coverage - but even if it does, we need multiple sources - usually 3 WP:3REFS - which we simply don't have for an unimportant geographical feature on an uninhabited continent. The fact that one country in a territorial dispute has named multiple features doesn't give notability in itself, particularly when that naming has been roundly ignored by everyone else in every possible form of published media.
- Comparisons with the moon are interesting - because of course there are many named features on the moon. But there the features are a) very large and b) referred to repeatedly in many sources. The fact that they have been named and exist is not enough.
- Also: WP:NOTMIRROR "Wikipedia articles are not merely collections of: 3 Public domain or other source material such as entire books or source code, original historical documents, letters, laws, proclamations, and other source material that are useful only when presented with their original, unmodified wording." and WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE "To provide encyclopedic value, data should be put in context with explanations referenced to independent sources.

"Wikipedia may serve as a gazetteer"
- a gazetteer is a geographical dictionary. WP:GEONATURAL on the other hand says explicitly that our goal is to write encyclopaedia articles, which are necessarily more in-depth than a mere gazetteer entry, or even list of gazetteer entries."The entries in Geographic Names of the Antarctic meet that definition"
- I disagree. The entries in that book are geographical dictionary entries, not encyclopaedic coverage, which is essentially a summary of what secondary sources have to say about a topic. Wikipedia is both not a dictionary and not a directory, but these listings of features would be essentially akin to dictionary/directory content.- In other areas of Wikipedia (books, music, films, biographies etc.) we have not generally taken this kind of short-paragraph coverage as significant coverage of the topic.

Wikipedia's Five Pillars, which is a non-binding summary of some of the guidelines and policies of Wikipedia, presently states that "Wikipedia combines many features of general and specialized encyclopedias, almanacs, and gazetteers".
However, this should not be misunderstood as stating that Wikipedia IS a gazetteer. Wikipedia is very different from, for example, GNIS, or the National Land and Property Gazetteer, in that it does not simply include articles on every single place, populated or not, regardless of the notability of the location. Wikipedia policy specifically excludes that it should be a "indiscriminate collection of information", "dictionary", or a “directory”, which is what it would be if it simply included the kind of information that a classic gazetteer such GNIS does, since a gazetteer is ultimately a "geographical dictionary or directory used in conjunction with a map or atlas."

[edit]FOARP Why not open an RFC to see what the community generally thinks about having articles on verifiable geo landmarks which are in dictionaries and encyclopedias. Nobody wants stubs, but I think you'll find that more people support them as article subjects than oppose. I fully agree with you on the concept of "inherent notability", I hate that term too, but the original objective of Wikipedia is the "sum of all human knowledge". We are worse off not having any mention of these features than we are having them, even as stubs. The issue that that we shouldn't really be copying from this resource, and the information is poorly presented in masses of different articles at an inconvenience to our readers. Merging the scraps of information we have to parent articles which cannot be disputed to be notable is the way to go. I would actually support a bot which nukes many of the Antarctica stubs and merges the information we have into readable prose in more notable parent articles which may be stubs or undeveloped too, but I know the community wouldn't support it.♦ Dr. Blofeld 09:39, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

. As encyclopaedia article subjects, yes. Not as mere single-sentence entries, which are not encyclopaedia articles. FOARP (talk) 12:20, 8 November 2023 (UTC)- A gazetteer often combines list and text format. An article like List of lakes in Foo County might have some general text on hydrography of the county followed by an alphabetic list giving name, coordinates, elevation and area. Some of the lake names would have links to articles giving more detail. In this case, the topic has too much verifiable detail to be stuffed into a list entry, which would look terrible on a phone.

- Ok, then I misunderstood your comment. I don’t see how a redirect is helpful - who exactly is going to be using the search term? And there is virtually nothing to merge other than the coordinates, which is essentially useless information about, let’s not forget, a gap between two unimportant mountains in a large range of mountains in the uninhabited continent. Merging will eventually lead to higher level pages that retain coordinates and no other information. JMWt (talk) 15:51, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

- I think we agree (apart from the noninator) that the information should or at least could be held somewhere in Wikipedia. With this feature, and almost all features named in Geographic Names of the Antarctic, there is more information than just coordinates. WP:GEONATURAL suggests that if there is not enough for a stand-alone article, information on a feature can be held in a parent article. Rupples suggests the parent could be David Range.
- If a redirect points to an anchor in front of a section on the feature within the parent article, the effect is much the same as with a stand-alone article. The user enters the feature name and is taken to text that describes it. A benefit of the merge approach is that the user sees context and related features, and so is encouraged to browse. A drawback is that there may be more than one possible parent, so there may be a risk of forking.
- Perhaps we should refer this to Wikipedia:WikiProject Antarctica, so we can get a consistent approach to these features. I would be inclined to say that:
- 1) If the feature is in Geographic Names of the Antarctic, it should have a section or article. If it is not in Geographic Names of the Antarctic, it probably does not belong.
- 2) If the available text would easily fit on a phone screen, and there are no obvious sources for expansion, it should be merged to a section in a parent.
- 3) the parent should be a mountain range if applicable, failing that a peninsula, failing that an archipelago, failing that an ice sheet ...
- 4) links from possible parents to the parent section that holds the text are encouraged, and will help avoid forking.
- Aymatth2 (talk) 15:58, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- My honest view is that locations in Antarctica, along with sub-sea formations (which includes rocks), belong in the same category as astronomical features (i.e., they are features that have never conceivably been inhabited that are highly unlikely to generate coverage and should not have any presumption of notability) and should be handled the same. I don't think there is any need to redirect them and we are kidding ourselves by thinking that people find these redirects useful, as well as greatly complicating the problem of cleaning up failing article by turning every AFD into a hunt for redirects/merges that are typically quite forced. FOARP (talk) 16:35, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- I am less anthropocentric. Inclusion of articles on people or their works must be subject to proof of notability, given the risk of abuse. Even with these, projects may define special criteria for politicians, athletes, populated places, and so on, allowing articles on topics that may not pass WP:GNG. With natural or scientific topics, there is far less risk of abuse, and projects often define special criteria such as WP:GEONATURAL. These topics may only be of interest to a limited audience, but there is plenty of room in Wikipedia. I suspect that more readers will be interested in natural features of Antarctica, which are associated with hardy explorers, than in articles on obscure beetles or minerals. Aymatth2 (talk) 18:03, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- As we’ve noted above, these articles were rapidly created by importing a dataset. There is very little chance that anyone would find them interesting because we lack the data to say anything interesting about them. It’s hardly “anthropocentric” to say that some geographical entities lack sources and therefore lack notability. JMWt (talk) 19:37, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- Also I’d add to this that pretty much the only sources of the names of the features are a) expeditions b) a gazeteer of geographic names and c) national mapping agencies - then pretty much the only way that a reader on en.wiki would know to search for them would be if they’d already read those (most likely c) and have already seen 90-100% of all the information that exists and is likely to exist on en.wiki
- Note that I accept that there are features in Antarctica where there is more to say, for example where there are research stations or big colonies of penguins. I’m only talking about the geological/geographical features where there is essentially nothing to say other than they exist and have been named. JMWt (talk) 19:34, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- Regarding this quote from Aymatth2 above “3) the parent should be a mountain range if applicable, failing that a peninsula, failing that an archipelago, failing that an ice sheet ...”
- I submit that this makes no logical sense. Basically we are saying that on the page for Framnes Mountains which is a big range of mountains there’s this other range called the David Range (which is non-notable and we have little to say about it) and two of the non-notable peaks within that range are Mount Coates and Mount Hordern (nothing much to say about them) and between them is a gap, but that’s also not notable and we have little to say about it. We’d end up with fractal sections on the page of cascading non-notable unimportance right down to “and in this non-notable bay, around the corner of this non-notable headland lies a non-notable island. A couple of miles away is this non-notable rock.” JMWt (talk) 20:06, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- WP:GEONATURAL is the relevant guideline for information on natural geographic features, not WP:GNG. This AfD discussion is not the place to propose changes to WP:GEONATURAL. We should be concerned only with compliance of Hordern Gap,and perhaps of similar articles, with that guideline.
- That said, a parent article for WP:GEONATURAL purposes will often describe a significant feature that also passes WP:GNG. The proposed David Range merge target certainly does. The description of David Range can obviously give detail on sub-features that are not themselves notable in the WP:GNG sense. Aymatth2 (talk) 22:57, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

Break 5
[edit]I pumped up David Range. It could use much more detail on climate, geology, exploration etc., but is now structured so it would be easy enough to merge in articles on the features. The more I read about this rich topic though, the more I feel it would be better to expand the feature articles, which mostly have plenty of sources for more material, and to leave the parent as a summary. Aymatth2 (talk) 00:28, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
- You may well be right about the individual features but redirects at least leave open the possibility for future expansion. Good work on David Range, especially the image showing where the features are in relation to each other. Rupples (talk) 02:42, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks. I suppose if a section on a feature gets too big, the redirect can easily be turned back into a stand alone article. Restarting an article that had previously been deleted would require more confidence.
- The nearby Mawson Station is a busy year round research centre, and scientists often visit the David Range to study geology or glaciology, to service equipment, or just for recreation. So most of the features are well documented. But getting plain English out of scientific papers is far from easy. It could take time before the content is expanded.

Delete. There appear to be two claims to fame here. Running against Joe Biden and being the executive director of Democrats for Life. Candidates do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates per se — the notability test at WP:NPOL is holding a notable office, not just running for one. There is no evidence that Bukovinac's candidacy will meet any sort of historic record or ten year test. It's raised funds equal to the value of a half-decent used car. The second claim to notability would be as the executive director of Democrats for Life. I don't believe being the executive director of the organization itself warrants notability given their form 990 cited on Wikipedia gives them annual revenues in the 5 figure range which much like figures of major parties turned minor parties, does not meet GNG and warrant an article. Mpen320 (talk) 04:04, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
- Keep Mpen320 is correct that this fails NPOL. However, as that guideline notes, candidates "can still be notable if they meet the general notability guideline." A review of the references in the article demonstrates that with coverage in outlets like the NY Times, HuffPost, AP, etc, that the subject passes GNG, and a quick DuckDuckGo search shows there is additional content that could be added as well. --Slugger O'Toole (talk) 04:29, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

- As the WP:NSPORT page you link to clearly states: "Please note that the failure to meet these criteria does not mean an article must be deleted". Indeed, the rule that applies, as per WP:BASIC, is as follows: "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."

- Redirect: found no additional coverage. Chart is a small one in the grand scheme of all of Billboard's coverage, so the number one placement doesn't mean as much as it may seem to. Gabriel & Dresden (album) would be the best target, but I suspect that's also non-notable and will be starting an AfD for it as well momentarily. If it does go down then redirect this to the band page instead. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 11:06, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

Subject does not appear to be notable. Only one source in the article is to a reliable source publication, but it's labeled as "opinion/commentary" and it's all that I see through a search. Otherwise, it's mostly cited to his YouTube channel. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:45, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

- Delete - Not notable. He lives in Texas where gun ownership is the norm. This article seems to be promoting his YouTube channel that focuses on weaponry. He's announced he'll run for office in the future - sometimes people throw their hat in the ring to promote themselves. No indication he has a political base, or even a political platform except himself. Nothing out of the ordinary here. — Maile (talk) 14:05, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Have you not read his campaign website, which I believe is listed in the sources from my memory. https://brandonherreraforcongress.com/issues He lists quite a lot Los Pobre (talk) 17:08, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- His campaign site is WP:ABOUTSELF and does not contribute to WP:GNG because it is not independent of the subject. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:50, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

- Delete - Not notable enough for an article. It's just promoting his YouTube channel. ThatOneWolf (talk|contribs) 22:42, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete- I'm not finding enough to meet WP:GNG (and he fails WP:NPOL). Other than what's currently in the article I found an article on MLK assassination conspiracy stuff he's into and an endorsement for his campaign from Kyle Rittenhouse. Neither of which is GNG coverage. TulsaPoliticsFan (talk) 18:39, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- I had not found that Independent source, but that's significant coverage of Rittenhouse that touches on Herrera, rather than significant coverage of Herrera. "The Western Journal" is part of the Western Center for Journalism, which was founded by the founder of WorldNetDaily, so I question its reliability. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:44, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Good to know on "The Western Journal". I skimmed the article and the tone seemed off and to entertain his conspiracy-ing too much, that explains why. I initially suspected it was just poor writing from a local or county paper, but it appears it's just a bad source. Thanks for letting me know. TulsaPoliticsFan (talk) 17:53, 23 November 2023 (UTC)

- First 4 are OK, last one is from his club so not SIGCOV. GiantSnowman 21:47, 22 November 2023 (UTC)
- Source one is his manager being quoted about JG's cartilage injury and contains no independent coverage of Graham. Source 2 has 3 sentences of independent coverage and quotes taken from mansfieldtown.net. Source 3 has one sentence of independent coverage and source 4 has the same info on him as source 3.

- Comment: It might be worth it to be look at using these sources in the article: a review of her 2012 book A Little F'd Up in Publishers Weekly and an interview with PW; review of this 2015 collection she contributed to in Kirkus Reviews; coverage of her 2014 book College 101 by Buzzfeed News; and Jessalyn Keller's chapter in this Routledge book, Girls' Feminist Blogging in a Postfeminist Age (alternative link). Also possibly useful is this article by Zeilinger on her family and a brief mention in this 2012 article in the New York Daily News on a Women in the World event.

- CommentJust a note that @Beccaynr didn't just state that Zeilinger did a lot of amazing things (which is, frankly, a matter of opinion to a large extent), but that she's done things that have been noted in reliable, third-party sources. It's the sources that count; we all do amazing things, but not all of us are going to get an article.
