Note. I found this which has some depth but not anything else that I would characcterize as SIGCOV. The search was challenging because Garnjost was a prominent New York family, I did not take the time to sift through all of the hits. Cbl62 (talk) 19:47, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of Evansville Crimson Giants players. No real objection to userfication/draftification, but it may be useful to have a mainspace redirect unless/until more sources are found which would justify a standalone article. Hatman31 (talk) 21:51, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Editor invoked WP:DRAFTOBJECT but the article has too many problems which impinge upon notability. UtherSRG (talk) 13:23, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~ President of the US Academy of Dermatology would be a notable position. Could use a rewrite, but that's not for AfD to worry about. Oaktree b (talk) 13:51, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I misred the article, the dermatology prize seems non-notable, being elected to the society I don't think gives notability as I believe it's needed to be in clinical practice in the field. Would perhaps have a chance with academic notability, based on his citation factors. I'll leave it for others to determine that. Oaktree b (talk) 13:54, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I could make a case for "Keep". The citation record is particularly good. He has 61 papers with more than 100 citations which would make him eminenly notable. His book publishing record is also excellent. He would easily pass WP:NAUTHOR. I understand UtherSRG's sentiment around the references and coi aspect. When you do a image search using Bing image search which is powered by OpenAI ChatGPT now, it doesn't turn up anything on the image, not does Google Image search which is equally powered by AI. Not that it makes a difference. If that image was present it would show in a New York second. The guy is standing in his own study. They're is just no way that image was taken, unless there was some kind of coi or fundamental relationship. It could be a student but more likely a UPE article and UPE editor. The subject is a heavy-weight academic. Obviously, he couldn't wait until a real article was created. I would suggest either stubifying the articles or getting rid of everything that is WP:PRIMARY and do a copyedit to find secondary sources. scope_creep^Talk 08:30, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't confirm his date of birth either, so that would have to go. scope_creep^Talk 08:40, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article is mess. Its needs stubbed more than anything else. scope_creep^Talk 08:46, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Given all that, wouldn't deletion and start from scratch be better? - UtherSRG (talk) 11:13, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the article is promo in bits that is one more thing. I could do a stub. scope_creep^Talk 11:34, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep I would say the subject is notable considering he has wrote over 450 research papers and 19 books, won five awards, was president of the British Cosmetic Dermatology Group. He is also mentioned in media outlets, [1][2]. I think the article needs to be improved rather than deleted. GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 22:00, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Daily Mail is non-rs . It is not a reliable source. The guardian is a paid for product promotion,,so it is not a real source. It is PR. Picking up random mentions in the press doesn't work here and you will called out everytime. scope_creep^Talk 15:46, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Meets WP:PROF with his papers cited 20,792 times according to Scholar. I don't know what too many problems which impinge upon notability means but WP:NOTCLEANUP. ~Kvng (talk) 14:15, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. His publications and citations give him NPROF (and probably NAUTHOR). Probably a UPE job (although it has been in development since 2015, so maybe COI). The text seems fine now, just a statement of facts. Not particularly problematic. Aszx5000 (talk) 00:22, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Eastmain, Phil Bridger and Necrothesp. Someone with an honorary degree is very likely to be notable. Someone just needs to do an in-depth Google Books search. JML1148 (talk | contribs) 00:08, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Unsual for a senior female not to have standard RS for GNG, but she slightly pre-dates online media. Definitely gets full sections (SIGCOV) in American Social Leaders and Activists, and also in American Women Speak: An Encyclopedia and Document Collection, and Women Pioneers For The Environment.

Patriotic Komitas Union of Montenegro

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article might seem alright at first look, but there is a lot of POV original research. A majority of its sources are unreliable, or from tabloids, or sources that are promoting this organisation. The article also fails Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies), as there is no significant coverage (a majority of its sources come from only one website which published their views), and besides a passing mention in a RFE source about the 2021 protests, there are no sources that significantly covered this organisation. This organisation is also very minor, therefore that also proves that it is not notable. This article should be either deleted or merged to Montenegrin nationalist protests (2020–2022).

Katarina (Doctor Who)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Katarina has barely any coverage in secondary sources. Content exists for the serials, but there is little analysis of her as a character. Honestly, she is a minor character that has had little importance to the franchise. ―Susmuffin ^Talk 23:43, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep – The article has real world context (mainly regarding how the writers struggled writing for her and wrote her out due to the context) which contributes to the information of the series in the 1960s. DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 00:26, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Companion (Doctor Who) - Appears to be a pretty minor character, only appearing in a small handful of episodes. Her only real significance is that she was the first Doctor Who companion to die, a fact that is already mentioned on the proposed target. I found one book that actually has a couple of paragraphs of genuine analysis of the character, but that is pretty much the only thing I have found in a reliable source that is not simply summarizing the plots of the episodes she appeared in or just repeating the factoid of her being the first companion to be killed.

Weak Keep There's this in WaPo [3], doesn't appear to be a PR piece/advertising, and these in medical journals [4], [5], [6]. Appears to be a legit medical database, used in the clinical research setting. But they are trivial mentions, so likely not at GNG.

Adam Davenport

AfDs for this article:

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Fails WP:GNG, WP:NM, and WP: BIO. Looks like a vanity page with nothing to indicate notability. Article is dependent on interviews from non-notable websites. Filmography is filled with background acting roles and acting roles in non-notable productions with non-notable filmmakers. Search results only yield minor projects that were never produced and background acting roles.

Keep. Taking the references as a combined whole, I think the credentials add up to notability. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 02:24, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The credentials on his page are a bit exaggerated. For example, the listed role of "Adam" in High Maintenance (2018) Season 2 Episode 1 is a background role where he is entirely out of focus and unnamed. Even the IMDB listing for this particular role is only "Actor." If you check every other credit on the list, you'll find similarly that his roles in those productions are minor. Project Olympus (2016) which he prominently says "Davenport became the first African-American actor to play Hercules onscreen" is not only inaccurate (Dwayne Johnson portrayed Hercules in 2014) but is also a minor independent project that was never produced. All online references to this project disappear after 2016. His electronic music career refers to a Youtube account where he has 40 subscribers and a Spotify where has 140 monthly listeners. The page fails WP:GNG. Francis Macon (talk) 20:22, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Green man (spirit of nature)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Folklorists agree that the Green man is not a mythological figure, but an architectural motif often called a "foliate head", as discussed in the main article which this was recently forked off of. (Sources: [7] [8] It makes no sense to have a separate article like this dedicated to the discredited concept that the "green man" is a mythological figure when it is not, especially when this idea is so intimately tied to the foliate head motif, essentially making it a WP:POVFORK. Many of the references used in this article make no reference to the concept of the "green man" at all making it WP:SYNTH, or are otherwise unreliable non-scholarly sources.

Keep I think this is now worthwhile as a separate article, though the title should be changed. Hemiauchenia (talk) 21:38, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep @Hemiauchenia: Previously you applied a new definition of "foliate head" to Green Man. It was an improvement, better describing the main content of the article. You removed a lot of irrelevant material which was certainly WP:OFFTOPIC. Unfortunately the deletion was reverted. There then followed a rather indecisive conversation on Talk:Green Man#Article remains a mess.... Because of your objection, "mythological" was removed from the title of the spinoff article, a proposal at which nobody demurred. You are now suggesting that this spinoff article should be also be deleted because it isn't mythological. There are (by my very quick count) four mentions of "mythology" in Green man (spirit of nature), and one of those (your addition, AFAICR) is specifically refuting that mythology has any connection with "foliate heads".

As "mythological" hardly appears in this new article, its presence isn't valid as a reason to delete. None is strongly referenced (and at least one is cruft) and they could all be trimmed without loss. --AntientNestor (talk) 21:45, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This article is currently a WP:SYNTH mish-mash of essentially unrelated mythological figures that have vague attributes in common. It uncritically takes the "Green Man" mythological concept at face value, when as previously mentioned it is not taken seriously by academic experts. The mythological aspect deserves some mention at the main Green Man article to debunk it. We should always preference academic sources over the opinions of non-experts. Hemiauchenia (talk) 21:51, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My main point I guess is that all of the mythological stuff should have just been trimmed down from the main Green Man article rather than just moving it all to a POVFORK that treats the concept uncritically. I agree with you that Wuerzele's reversion was deeply unhelpful with attempting to fix the main article, and it looks a lot better with all of the mythological guff removed. Hemiauchenia (talk) 23:45, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete ~~Comment~~ - I tried to find the common theme in this article. The best I could do was "everybody was green". So maybe retitle this "Green people in folklore and culture". But would that then lead to articles for other colors ("Purple people in folklore and culture")?. Where would it stop - at mauve?

I'm just not sure we need this sort of article, even referenced.

Comment There is a kernel of something coherent here (theories linking a certain artistic/cultural motif to a religious past) with an outgrowth of synth (listing random green-coloured deities and things that happen to have the name "green man"). For the former stuff, the further the sources get from being focused on the motif, the more zany and unreliable-looking they tend to be. small jars tc 23:19, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete While I agree, there could be an article for this mythical creature/figure/thing, this doesn't seem to be it. SYNTH for sure is happening here; various mentions of mythical beings, smooshed together to try and create an article here. Valiant effort, but I'm just not seeing it as subject for an article. Oaktree b (talk) 00:09, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I very much doubt it is true that "Folklorists agree that the Green man is not a mythological figure" (for one thing, they never agree on anything). Most would perhaps agree he is not usually any specific figure, with any myth attached. The article is messy and dives off in several directions, but that goes with the territory. The deletion rationale is completely defective: "It makes no sense to have a separate article like this dedicated to the discredited concept that the "green man" is a mythological figure when it is not." There is abundant coverage, some cited in the article, of folkloric interpretations of the heads; the topic is therefore notable. The nominator seems to think that because it is "an architectural motif often called a "foliate head"", it can't represent anything else. This is completely wrong. I think the fork, based on a very thin consensus, was perhaps a mistake, but in any case the material here, scrappy as it is, should not just be deleted (people will only add similar back to the main article anyway). Johnbod (talk) 01:55, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The recent coverage asserting that the "Green Man" is a mythological figure are not academic sources. The big 5 publishers will publish any old nonsense, whether that's Worlds in Collision or anything by Graham Hancock. people will only add similar back to the main article anyway is not an excuse. People will add titillating details to the "Personal life" sections of BLPs, doesn't mean that they shouldn't be trimmed. Articles should always be based on reliable, scholarly sources when available. The mythological concept of the "green man" is not separable from the "foliate head" concept. They should be covered in the same article. Hemiauchenia (talk) 02:04, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Second Comment The field of folklore almost seems designed to create scope problems. According to this source cited in the article, the term "green man" was first invented by the folklorist Lady Raglan as part of a folkloric theory, but what she first used the term to refer to was the specific architectural motif of the foliate head. She went on to hypothesise that this motif was related to other figures such as Jack in the Green and Robin Hood, who she also saw as forms of "the green man.” A key question here is how far later folklorists concerned with theory of the green man have shifted their focus away from the original evidence of foliate heads. According to the same source, the phrase "green man" has also ended up being used by several folklorists who disagree with Raglan's hypothesis. With my present, very limited, understanding of the topic, I'm thinking that it might be a good idea to move Green man to Foliate head, since that strips it of the originally folkloric connotations of "green man,” allowing it to focus squarely on architecture, and to move Green man (spirit of nature) to Green man, where it could hopefully be ~~cleaned up~~ weeded and reworked to provide appropriately critical coverage of the various competing theories that make use of this term. small jars tc 02:38, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep We should report what people have said about the GM, even if it is not a "real" mythological figure (which ones are?). The article needs work, and if necessary I wouldn't object to it being remerged, but no content should be lost if this happens. Boynamedsue (talk) 05:32, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The content in § Early agrarian societies does need to be lost. Its first three paragraphs are pure WP:SYNTH based on mythology textbooks and direct reference to scripture, and the last two cite these sources, [9][10], which are both essentially works of Jungian psychology arguing for the green man as a subconscious "archetype,” but which the section treats more like sources of rigorous comparative mythology. small jars tc 15:27, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. That is by far the worst section in the article for the reasons you stated. If it is kept, the article needs to be trimmed to remove unreliable sources. Hemiauchenia (talk) 17:03, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Whatever else happens, please don't reinsert this stuff back into the original article, where it's very definitely off topic.--AntientNestor (talk) 07:02, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- That should remain an option (not all of it, there is far too much). I didn't see the nomination to split, but nor did anybody else much, to judge by the turnout. I agree that "The mythological concept of the "green man" is not separable from the "foliate head" concept. They should be covered in the same article." as the nom says above. Two words should not be used at all in this discussion: "mythology" and "architecture". We should instead be talking about folklore and art - the most common surviving form is architectural, but there are plenty of paintings and manuscript illuminations. Johnbod (talk) 17:21, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Whether or not it was a mere architectural motif, it has become a real belief held by a number of pagans (see e.g. Smith 2017). First reason: I've been confused before by the lack of a page about this aspect of the religion. If this is the primary thing discussed by the page, the current version should probably be made into a religion article rather than a folklore/mythology article. Alternatively perhaps it could be merged into the Horned Man article, but I am not certain whether those are the same deity or not. Second reason: A quick review of articles available in ResearchGate suggests that at least some researchers do see it as a valid construct or archetype—whether or not it was invented wholesale in the last few centuries, there seems to be a belief that it is being used now. (see e.g. Bucher 2023, Wood 2022, Yarova 2020, Araneo 2018). Kalany (talk) 10:07, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, sorry, but deletion makes no sense. This was a very recent fork with long-standing information from a long-standing article which is now being nominated for deletion. Seems a round-about way of deleting the material from Wikipedia's coverage of Green Man, which also makes no sense when viewing the two articles as a unit (which they were until a few days ago). Signed, Confused in Kansas. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:04, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Kalany and Randy Kryn: I hope you agree that if the article is kept, the title Green man (spirit of nature) is not a good description of what this conglomerate of ideas is. Would you be in favour of the moves I suggested in my second comment? Do you have any alternate ideas, maybe Green man (folklore)? Clear distinctions should be made between sources treating the green man as a folkloric motif, as an "archetype" and as a neo-pagan deity, though these ideas may be related. I also don't believe the fact that the information is "long standing" excuses some of the synthier parts. small jars tc 19:33, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- I certainly agree that a title like Green man (folklore) is better, & that much of the article can be junked. The stuff that should be here includes this sort of thing. Johnbod (talk) 02:29, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  - Oh, I see much of that has now gone. But the stuff in the link above needs adding. Johnbod (talk) 02:33, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    - That's a really good link, thanks. The more I look at this topic, the more confusing it gets. It's obvious that this concept of the "Green Man" as a whiffler in the Early Modern Period (as also discussed in "The Name of the Green Man" from 1997) seems to be linked to the concept of the wild man, but the source does not support Ragland's assertion that there is a direct link between the foliate heads and those green men. Hemiauchenia (talk) 02:43, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment should this be renamed if kept as Green man (mythology) like Pluto (mythology)? Green man (spirit of nature) seems to assert that it is a confirmed spirit. --Lenticel ^(talk) 02:47, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- No - see above - there is NO mythology here. What do you think the myth is? You could fill a book with accounts of Pluto's doings. Johnbod (talk) 03:01, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep After to improvements made by nom, ironically. AfD is cleanup after all. small jars tc 03:06, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm still really struggling to think about how a coherent article can be written about a topic like this. There are so many concepts about what the "green man" is supposed to be, that it's really hard to talk about them in a balanced way, while also incorporating the criticism the entire "green man" concept has gotten. Hemiauchenia (talk) 03:11, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  At least one of those sub-concepts (the debunked (?) folklore theory) would be notable on it's own if you took them as seperate, but since all of them are ultimately due to Ragland's initial assertion, they seem related enough to justify them being in the same article. You could have something like § History [of the term], to talk about the facts of where the term came from, whose been using it, etc.; then § In folklore [studies], § In psychoanalysis/As a Jungian archetype, § Neo-Paganism, and § In popular culture, to discuss each use and respective criticism in detail. small jars tc 03:57, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  Damn it seems like the LOC source denies that Raglan actually was the first to coin it. This is confusing but I have to wonder how much the earlier mentions actually matter. small jars tc 04:09, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  - Of course they do. It's pretty clear; she was the first to apply it to the "foliate heads" but the term long preceded this, for the carnival-type figures, and the pubs named after them - see the OED. The question is, what is the connection between these two? There's no difficulty connecting the Wild Man figures in art and in festivities. Johnbod (talk) 06:36, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Trumpisms

AfDs for this article:

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This was deleted at AfD already and recreated. To be clear, the new article is quite different from the old, reframing from a list to something that's more about his rhetorical style. The neologism "trumpisms" does not seem particularly notable (in the sense that it does not have a clearly agreed upon definition, making our article an inevitable hodgepodge of various people's criticisms of wacky things he says). It's possible some of the content could be merged to public image of Donald Trump or one of the many many other articles about Trump's activities and persona, but there's just not enough to sustain a stand-alone article here per WP:NOPAGE and WP:NEO. It's possible someone could create an article "Speaking/rhetorical/communication style of Donald Trump", but this isn't the material we'd want to start that with. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 15:20, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bidenisms

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Nominating for roughly the same reason I supported deleting Trumpisms at its AfD, but even more so because there's so much less coverage of this neologism. Perhaps it could be redirected to public image of Joe Biden, but I don't think there's really anything to merge (I think this is true of the post-deletion recreation of Trumpisms, too). There are a range of policy-based reasons for deletion/redirection here: WP:NOPAGE, WP:NEO, and WP:SALAT to name a few. Per the latter, there's no way to set good inclusion criteria. The subject is really just about his speaking style, which is covered at the public image articles.

Delete. The title of this one gave me a laugh, could arguably be considered WP:NOTNEWS, but definitely fails the WP:GNG ULPS (talk) 20:07, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment No, it's not NOTNEWS, and not even arguably so; do read that policy thoroughly because like may policies referenced with a WP:VAGUEWAVE, what people think it says often differs markedly from what it actually says.

- Delete - At this point, all sources are primary news accounts. IMO, that makes it NOTNEWS#2, but in any case it means it fails GNG for lacking secondary sources.

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Fictional elements-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 14:49, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages because none of these DCEU characters seems to be notable. Most of them made just one appearance, and many of the things reported in these pages concerns more the development of the film (e.g. Steppenwolf and Victor Stone):

*I'll toss in a few other DC film characters from outside the DCEU. Once again, some are obvious candidates to merge, while some others may be more debatable:

Merge all to their main articles. Non-notable incarnations of popular characters. Dronebogus (talk) 16:25, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge There are some with better claims to a standalone article than others, but none of them demonstrate where they need separate articles from their overall character articles. The reception of characters that would demonstrate they are significant standalone incarnations doesn't exist in the articles at present (CBR or Screenrant content) or are focused on the film itself (Leto's Joker performance) and the main articles aren't so long that size issues justify splits.

Comment: I'd hold off on Amanda Waller and Peacemaker, or at most draftify those, as Peacemaker is the main protagonist of his own television series, and he and Waller will appear extensively in upcoming DCU media. Lex Luthor has some good commentary, but I can probably see it merged with Lex Luthor (1978 film series character) into Lex Luthor in film or simply to the existing Lex Luthor in other media. The same can be said for Zod, which I'd say can be merged with General Zod (1978 film series character) to General Zod in film.

Victor Stone/Cyborg and Steppenwolf have material that can be merged to Production of Justice League (film), especially as their characters were the most affected by the reshoots and what happened with Cyborg caused notable controversy. Mera's article has stuff that is mostly covered in Depp v. Heard and Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom and can be simply merged to the main article.

Other than that I have no issue with merging, especially if we've defined what makes an incarnation of a character notable. Lois Lane should be merged to Lois Lane in other media and Joker can also be merged to Joker in other media.

In addition, there are a lot of Donnerverse and Burton/SchumacherVerse characters that could also be merged or deleted. --WuTang94 (talk) 19:21, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, Waller and Peacemaker articles have potential. Maybe they can be put in the draft namespace, as you suggest. Redjedi23 (talk) 20:23, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Handle outside AfD You could call this "Speedy Keep per criterion 1b" but that's a bit passive-aggressive, and I empathize with what the nom is trying here. Basically, you're making a reasonable point, but 1) it's better served by individual discussions, and 2) when notability of a set of characters is discussed, it's inherently impossible to have a nuanced, data-driven discussion on more than, say, 2-3 characters at once. Draftification is a legitimate option, but results in something being a) lost from mainspace, and 2) missing from a search until someone does something, so a redirect with possibilities is clearly a better option. But this is all something better hashed out on individual talk pages. I am entirely sympathetic with the notion that fictional characters appearing in slightly different franchises/universes should generally be discussed together in one article per character unless they diverge as much as, say, Lieutenant Starbuck and Kara Thrace. This is just not the right tool for that job. Jclemens (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I'd rather see them discussed one by one. On the surface, merge is reasonable, but I checked two entries and they both appear to have quite a lot about the actor and reception, which may be undue in the article about the comic book character. Better merge targets may be some relevant movies, and the case for those characters having stand-alone GNG is less far fetched than what I imagined at first.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:29, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with you and Jclemens, there shouldn't be a one-size-fits-all solution for all of these at once, as I believe some articles merit keeping over others. Each article should be examined individually, but I do think that having a place to oversee discussion for all these articles would be good for management, and I'm guessing that's what Redjedi23 was aiming for when they decided to mass-nominate all the DCEU articles. However, I wouldn't be opposed to splitting this into individual talk pages. WuTang94 (talk) 07:19, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I have no problem in splitting discussion. However, I think it's fine to talk in a single discussion about every Batman article that @WuTang94 added. Redjedi23 (talk) 09:35, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy close I agree with the nominator's sentiments, but unfortunately, this is a WP:TRAINWRECK. These articles should be re-nominated in smaller batches based on their shared attributes, for example, everyone who has only appeared once as a supporting/minor character, everyone who has only appeared once but as a major/lead character, etc. InfiniteNexus (talk) 18:05, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The initial batch was of only DCEU characters. Which DCEU characters would you list in a single batch? Redjedi23 (talk) 19:38, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment These mass nominations seem like a bad idea.★Trekker (talk) 22:48, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Initially, it was a minor-DCEU character nomination, but Wutang94 added other articles. Redjedi23 (talk) 00:11, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Apologies if this is just piling, but I agree with the above concerns that these mass nominations are just not a good idea. It puts a lot of weight and expectations on editors to look through each article, do the research to fairly judge about if coverage exists or not, and make a decision. I do not have any opinion either way about this set of articles, but these kinds of mass nominations never seem productive to me. Aoba47 (talk) 02:11, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I removed the articel nominated by WuTang94 after the concern by the users. Is it fine now or we have to create another discussion? Redjedi23 (talk) 10:05, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I also would have individual discussions for the DCEU ones. Even if all but two of them seem to be merge-able [single tear rolling down my face as the author of pretty much all of these pages, but if it has to be done, it has to be done], the merge targets should be more specific, especially with Zod and Luthor.
I'll also renominate the non-DCEU articles separately. WuTang94 (talk) 23:03, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, just created merge requests for all articles listed above except for the ones in which I more strongly disagree on (Peacemaker, Amanda Waller, DCEU Lex Luthor). Redjedi23 if you want to make merge requests for those, you can follow my template on any of the other pages, or follow the guidelines of WP:Merging. WuTang94 (talk) 01:30, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This AfD and the merge requests should not be open at the same time. Either @Redjedi23 should withdraw this nomination or @WuTang94 should withdraw theirs.

Infinity TV

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article about a possibly defunct television channel not properly sourced as passing WP:BCAST. As always, television channels are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to be the subject of third-party coverage in media besides themselves to establish their significance -- but the sole "source" here was content on its own self-published website about itself, and even that website is dead.
And for added bonus, this was half-hijacked in 2020, with the body text overwritten to describe the subject as a newly-launched thing in Canada, but without the referencing, the dead external link or the Emirati categories having been changed at all -- and the fact that this went 2.5 years without being detected implies low traffic and visibility.
I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with better access to Emirati media than I've got can find the sourcing needed to salvage it, but nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt it from having to pass WP:GNG on the sourcing. Bearcat (talk) 13:16, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to take a wild guess and say it had been running for 3 years and at some point got booted off and maybe the 2010-Youtube/Twitter creations were them trying to revive the name but weren't on anything ?, I've been convinced we were missing something because of the amount of LinkedIn followers they had but I don't think so.....

Leaning possible keep? It's possible the article could have some fat trimmed, sure (I recognize that Tintor2 was expanding in good faith, but let's please not add CBR.com , a clickbait site), but the Boss Fight Books source on Kingdom Hearts II seems promising. I don't have access to it and Boss Fight can sometimes be a bit "deep reiteration of the plot" rather than critical analysis, but it seems like a good start if someone wants to try salvaging the article.

Military history of Wales

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article is a POVfork of Welsh history articles. If there is a primary subject of Welsh military history, this is not it. Wales has never had its own standing army and this article mixes Celtic history, then the English conquest, then revolts, then British history and finally Welsh regiments in the world wars. At the very least WP:TNT applies.

Article content is entirely copied from other articles, and per discussion on the talk page, [22] it is badly done. Referencing is inconsistent and often broken. No information willl be lost if this article is deleted as it is all in other articles.

Considered WP:BLAR but not at all clear what the primary topic would be for a redirect. Thus I favour deletion, but redirect would be fine if editors can find consensus for a target. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:33, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History and Wales. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:33, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - my feeling is that the topic is likely notable (there are books written about it) but the current page needs WP:TNT for reasons described above. Possibly someone eventually could write a properly sourced article containing different information from other related pages, but this isn't it.

Fwiw I don't agree that the topic is invalid because some of the history occurred before Wales was a nation. JMWt (talk) 09:08, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete For the purpose of WP:TNT --TheInsatiableOne (talk) 13:04, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per the nominator and JMWt. This article doesn't present us with anything new and is a content fork of other articles. Wales has a history of battle and conquest but that is covered in History of Wales. We also have Armed forces in Wales and Wales in the World Wars which cover more recent, specific topics. The article was draftified because of the problems, the origonal 'author' copied a large chunk from another cpontent fork article and re-pubished it. I don't believe draftifying it will yield any significant improvement or re-write. Sionk (talk) 13:44, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and check for cleanup of linked articles. Some of the previously renamed/redirected/deleted POVfork copy/paste articles still have wikilinks from the articles they have been copied from which can be removed or changed, in this case though it seems to be mainly linked through {{History of Wales}}.

Delete per WP:TNT. Contains a massive amount of personal analysis and dubious claims. Partofthemachine (talk) 00:57, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I do not understand much of the reasoning given here. The claim that "Wales has never had its own standing army" isn't the least bit relevant. And of course the article should be redundant. Many high level articles ought to be 90% redundant to sub-articles. The topic is certainly notable. There is a monograph by Sean Davies, War and Society in Medieval Wales, 633-1283: Welsh Military Institutions. It is probably more of a problem that our history of Wales article is so dominated by military history. I say redirect to History of Wales for now. Srnec (talk) 15:46, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, WP:TNT can apply as it may be a notable topic if re-written better or just made into a list like some other "Military history of" articles. But the existing article is largely copy-pasted. Dank Jae 15:29, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night (TV special)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

40-minute TV special documenting the recording/creation of a record album. The wiki article contains only two sentences about the TV show; the rest of the wiki article is about either the album (A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night) or the artist (Harry Nilsson). I have Googled the TV show and have found no significant coverage; it appears to have no independent notability outside either the album itself or the artist.

Comment: The lone two instances of this title in The Times archive at Gale are just TV listings, as are most of what the British Newspaper Archive has to offer. However, BNA does bring up a couple of articles on the special itself, as well as one review on the parent album (which we may use to start a Reception section or ratings box). (Refs below improved with matches from Newspapers.)

Cult singer-composer Harry Nilsson normally refuses to do live concerts or appear on TV. Which is what makes tonight's show something of a coup for producer Stanley Dorfman, a close friend of Nilsson.

Keep: I have rewritten the page to summerize why I think it should be kept, which is as follows:

A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night is one of the only television appearances that American singer-songwriter Harry Nillson ever made on TV. Nilsson never toured and never played a single formal concert for a paying audience.^[1] With exception to an episode of In Concert, which was Nilsson's first and only other show on television, A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night, was Nilsson's only televised full-length concert, albeit in the studio and without an audience.^[2] One of the legends surrounding Nilsson is that he never performed any live concerts.^[3] Despite being described as "a pioneer of the Los Angeles studio sound" and "a crucial bridge" between 1960s psychedelia and the 1970s singer-songwriter era, and that he was voted No. 62 in Rolling Stone's 2015 list of the "100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time"^[4], Nilsson was known as a "singer-composer who is heard by not seen". He had appeared only once, for a few moments, on television in England and once in America.^[5] As noted by Van Dyke Parks, "He didn't buy into the idea that you must go out and get clapped at and approved of in public to make a living."^[6] A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night, named after his album by the same name (A Little Touch Of Schmilsson In The Night)^[7], was filmed few days after recording the album, which he recorded in a few days in March 1973. Nilsson, Gordon Jenkins (also Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra's arranger) recreated the scene of the album recording with a live orchestra, filmed by Dorfman at the BBC TV theatre in Shepherd's Bush. In 1994, almost twenty years later, the english journalist and record producer Derek Taylor summarized the TV special in Mojo magazine, saying "There has been nothing better on music TV since."^[8] There is much more that I can (and will when I have time and if it doesn't get deleted to the page to show it's notability, but hopefully the proceeding does an inadequate job to describe why it should be kept - if only even as a stub. - SacredLotus7 (talk) 19:57, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to A Little Touch of Schmilsson in the Night (the parent album), where the TV special can be discussed in a new section. The show did indeed get some notice, but I don't think it was significant enough to merit a separate article. Even with some recent additions, this article is still mostly about the album itself and the fact that Nilsson rarely appeared on TV, and both of those are outside this particular TV special. Worth noting briefly at the album article, but that's all. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 20:04, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As this 2010 article states^[1] "If there was one roadblock in constructing the film, it was Nilsson's career-long aversion to live performance. Because he never toured, only two BBC specials and barely a handful of guest appearances on TV shows survive to illustrate him at work" and "Harry Nilsson had an aversion to live performance, leaving only two BBC specials and some TV guest appearances to illustrate his work" - As the article points out, this TV special was one of the two appearances left to illustrate Nilsson at work, and that deserves to be highlighted outside the album page. - SacredLotus7 (talk) 18:43, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I want you to do some homework. Gsearch for Chris Brown, Among the very first search results on his SERP is his official website, instagram, twitter, linkedin, youtube, deezer, youtube. But doesn't he have a wikipedia page! Does that make it a promotion page? Or does his page therefore qualify for deletion since his google search results don't have news websites through out from top to bottom.

Let me educate you, the results that appear on google search when you search for a brand is 70% affected by how optimized the brand personality is. Some brands don't give room for any news articles to appear on google search for atleast two or three pages down. That's SEO. But if you continue down and down, You'll then find the articles you need.

You can't therefore claim that since Jack Rollen's SERP brings his handles firts, it makes it a PROMO. That will make every brand that optimizes their brand subject to wikipedia page deletion. Pro Art Editor (talk) 08:16, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Looks like a vanity page with nothing to indicate notability. _signed,Willondon (talk) 15:16, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Am sure you are claiming that this page is a vanity page just because the subject is not famous in your country. I have something for you!

A page should not be cast away as vanity simply because ths subject is not famous(in one editor's region). There is presently no consensus about what the degree of recognition is required for a page to be included in wikipedia, and therefore, lack of fame should be completely ignored in deletion debates.

what am trying to say is(something that even professional wikipedians like David Gerard believe in), just because you think a page is a vanity page doesn't make it qualify for deletion.

David Gerard once said, "notability is not a deletiion criteria" but now I say "Vanity claims doesn't make a page subject to deletion." We need more than that. Pro Art Editor (talk) 08:07, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sirs, I don't think we shall agree on deleting a page just depending on the way someone thinks about the matter. I've seen all the previous comments are based on what someone thinks about the page Jack Rollen, which isn't right. Before coming here to comment on this, I had to read the Afd policy, and it so clearly states that decisions about the fate of a page shouldn't be based on thoughts but sources to support one's idea about the subject. I'm here to neither support the deletion nor the Keeping of the page. I rather request us as wikipedians to be fair and unbiased.

Someone was saying there's nothing more than linkedin profiles and social media links on Gsearch results on Jack Rollen, a claim that is entirely wrong. We need to base on facts and sources if we're to conclude this deletion process. I know most of Ya'll want the page deleted, mostly coz Ya'll are biased, you don't want to do your homework but rather to get done with what you feel is right(which is wrong) in your mind. I'm not here to change anyone's mind. But not all musical artists, producers, songwriters, have a big platform as the establshed American figures but these subjects are notable in their respective regions. Pro Art Editor (talk) 07:41, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Some comments:

mostly coz Ya'll are biased: speculating on other editors' motives is usually a non-starter in these discussions
just because the subject is not famous in your country: it is true that parochialism can lead to less dominant cultures being unfairly ignored
you don't want to do your homework: WP:BURDEN provides guidance which I believe can be extended to articles as well as portions of content
if you continue down and down, You'll then find the articles you need.:

Improvements to an article are very welcome, even (especially) while an AfD is being discussed. It will be good if you can find reliable secondary sources and provide content based on them. One thing I noticed in the article: "Jack Rollen has been known by many names in the Uganda entertainment industry. Bomba, JAVIN, Karts Pro, Tritto Pritto & Producer Karts are some of the pseudonyms he has used". This makes it difficult to verify content without a reliable source tying those pseudonyms together. For example, some sources refer to "Bomba", but provide no indication that "Jack Rollen" and "Bomba" are the same person. _signed,Willondon (talk) 13:45, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you have indeed added a couple of links, including a list of companies ordered by revenue in the state. However, inclusion in a list is not evidence of notability in Wikipedia's sense; you need to provide citations to substantial coverage of the subject, not just inclusion in lists. In fact, your comment here prompted me to check all the references ion the article, which I had not previously done, having based my impression purely on the promotional tone of the article. I have found that not a single one of the references is substantial coverage of the subject. One of the references doesn't even mention the company, others include announcements of changes in the business's structure or management or of acquisitions of companies, pages which only very briefly mention Hotelbeds, etc. Also some of them are clearly not independent sources, being on the company's own web site or stes of other businesses connected to it, and others look very much as though they may be write-ups of press release information or similar. In fact, now that I have checked the references, my "delete" above has now become more like "DELETE". JBW (talk) 15:01, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Most of article rewritten, could you please review? Travel&tourism-es (talk) 00:04, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I have looked at the current version of the article, and compared it with the version which existed when I posted my comments above.

Firstly, I will comment on the promotional tone of the article. You have made some changes to the article, including removing some promotional wording, but on the other hand you have added further promotional text in other parts of the article, so that the end result is certainly not significantly less promotional than the earlier version, and I should say if anything slightly more so. You have declared a conflict of interest in relation to this article (thank you for doing so) and you may well work in marketing, PR, or a related field. Over the years I have found that professionals in such fields very often seem to be totally unable to see why other people view their writing as promotional, and strive to make it unpromotional in character, but fail to do so. I have formed the impression that such people are so used to reading, writing, hearing, and speaking marketing speak for hours on end, day after day, year after year, that they become desensitised to it, and actually cannot see its promotional character even when it is right in front of their face. That is probably one of the reasons why time and again I have seen editors of this kind sincerely trying, in perfectly good faith, to produce something which looks neutral to others, and never succeeding in doing so.
Now, the references. You have almost doubled the number of references since the last time I checked, from 14 to 27, but unfortunately it is almost all just more of the same: a book of 221 pages, which includes one mention of Hotelbeds, and that one mention is merely including it in a list of six businesses; business announcements such as "The former TUI Travel Accommodation & Destinations is now called Hotelbeds Group", "Hotelbeds Agrees to Buy Wholesaler GTA"; and so on... There is, however, just one citation to something which could be regarded as substantial coverage in an independent source, namely an article published by the newspaper El País, at the URL https://elpais.com/economia/negocios/2023-06-07/uno-de-los-mayores-bancos-de-camas-de-hotel-es-espanol-y-esta-en-venta.html. If there are a few more sources available like that one then there may be enough evidence of notability to justify an article about the business, but even if that is so (which needs to be demonstrated) then this is not the article which would be justified, because it really is just an attempt to promote the business. JBW (talk) 20:10, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much @JBW for your time and very useful guidance.

On your first point, the article is now rewritten in much more neutral tone; hopefully it also appears neutral to others.
On your second point, the references, thank you for pointing me in the right direction.

Your recent edits have been a serious attempt to address both the issues which have been raised, promotional tone and lack of evidence of notability. In my opinion, the article is no longer at all promotional, so that problem has gone. As for the referencing, the following references have been added since the last time I checked the article: [30] [31] [32] [33] [34]. Some of those do give much more substantial coverage of Hotelbeds than the earlier references, but there's the question whether they are enough. I would like to have one or more other independent opinions on that. I am therefore withdrawing my "delete" but I am not quite ready to add a "keep". Pinging @Fancy Refrigerator, Oaktree b, and XOR'easter: in case any of them would like to reconsider the article, since it is significantly different from how it was when they last reviewed it.

Weak Keep El Pais seems ok, the rest are of lesser quality, but I think together it's just enough. I'll modify my !vote above. Oaktree b (talk) 17:16, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination withdrawn, sources are now of much better quality. I don’t see any other major issues with the article. Fancy Refrigerator ^(talk) 23:55, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
