Delete I don't see any significant coverage in independent, reliable sources. I depend on machine translation to read Hebrew, so I may have missed something, but https://www.haaretz.co.il/gallery/art/exibitions/event-1.3515952 which initially looked like it might be a proper review (We consider Haaretz generally reliable) was written by the curator of the exhibition, so it's not independent. Vexations (talk) 21:59, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Haaretz is a good source, but it's a PR material of the gallery.This is the curator words taken from the exhibition catalogue or paper, it's in Leonardo gallery, a payed gallery I presume. I have been looking, i'm not sure if it's a payed gallery here. It might be not a real gallery but an exhibition space sponsor by Kibbutz Artzi (the space is inside it's headquarters) building. Maybe they are giving space to unknown Kibbutz artists.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.253.167.137 (talk • contribs)
Delete - Does not pass WP:GNG nor WP:ARTIST on any of the criteria for notability. I saw this article some months ago and noticed it was authored by a likely COI editor, which it now seems is UPE. The article is very promotional WP:PROMO, with the content and citations very puffed up. For example, one citation supposedly to "Narit Shany at the Israel Museum" is basically a slide-registry, just a list of exhibitions she has had elsewhere at mostly non-notable galleries. The sourcing is Primary or User-submitted, with many of the exhibitions and all of the collections sourced to her website or user-generated sites. None of the collections are museum collections.

Above-average gameshow contestant that reached the final four of Robot Wars once. Article is all unsourced match reports with no claim of any real-world significance or legacy in its field. Interestingly, over a decade later this robot ended up in the hands of a Robot Wars fan who wanted to shoot Donald Trump, but that's a passing reference and guilt by association if it was ever used to justify this page existing Unknown Temptation (talk) 21:05, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am at a loss as to how this has avoided deletion for nine years, and also why this page was made in the first place. This was a contestant in the first series of Robot Wars, an immensely popular BBC show around the turn of the millennium, but we don't have a page for every Millionaire contestant. This contestant won its heat and took part in a six-way final at the end of the show, which it lost. At most, it was on TV for 30 minutes, as it never returned to the show afterwards. All we have apart from commentary on its performance is a claim that it was the first robot to run both ways up, and that a comedy actor was one of many students who took part in its building. There were Robot Wars contestants like Razer (robot) that had some minor real-world importance by competing and winning for years on end, but I struggle to see the importance of this one Unknown Temptation (talk) 21:01, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There is no evidence that Basalla passes any academic notability guidelines. I do not see evidence of him being cited enough or other signs of impact that would allow him to pass guidelines 1, and no other guidelines does he even come close. The sourcing is no where near meeting GNG. Almost all the sources are dead. The exceptions are good reads, which is not a reliable source, the US census, which is in some ways not reliable and more to the point a primary source that seeks to record information on all residents of the US, not at all something showing notability. Then we have the subject's own website. A search for more resources came up with some passing mentions in various articles on JSTOR, but no actual sustained coverage, especially not in any meaningful way of him. We just do not have sources to show he is notable, and I can not see how he really passes any of the notability prongs for academics. John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:40, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:CREATIVE. The first two paragraphs regarding his biography and his agency are straight copyvio from his website [6] and must be deleted. This is purely promotional, relying on two primary source interviews with Mr. Patron talking about himself and his agency and which are from two websites that don't pass WP:RS (the blogs on Huffington Post are not considered reliable sources compared with the rest of the site). The only part which is independently reported is the section on the illegal party, which the article creator has tried to remove as "not relevant", which is probably true, but it leaves the article with absolutely nothing in the way of independent sources.

Fails WP:NBAND and WP:GNG for the following reasons, broken down by each criteria:
lacks the "multiple, non-trivial" part of criterion #1 ("multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself")
"Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart." - does not appear to have had anything chart (1, 2)
"Has had a record certified gold or higher in at least one country." - per #2 by default (can't have a record certified gold or higher if nothing ever charted)
"Has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country" -- per #1
"Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable)." - per the article, only ever released one album, so fails "multiple" and was on a redlinked label anyways
"Is an ensemble that contains two or more independently notable musicians, or is a musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles.[note 5] This should be adapted appropriately for musical genre; for example, having performed two lead roles at major opera houses. Note that this criterion needs to be interpreted with caution, as there have been instances where this criterion was cited in a circular manner to create a self-fulfilling notability loop (e.g. musicians who were "notable" only for having been in two bands, of which one or both were "notable" only because those musicians had been in them.)" - only Mike Wead is notable, so fails on "two or more". Full disclosure: article did link to Simon Johansson (a pro hockey player), but that is the wrong one and I didn't see any other articles about another "Simon Johansson". As such, I removed the wikilinks.
"Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability." - not the case as found through #1
"Has won or been nominated for a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno, Mercury, Choice or Grammis award." - not the case per current available sourcing in my WP:BEFORE search
"Has won first, second or third place in a major music competition." - not found in BEFORE and not mentioned in the article
"Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g., a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a notable compilation album, etc. (But if this is the only claim, it is probably more appropriate to have a mention in the main article and redirect to that article. Read the policy and notability guideline on subjects notable only for one event, for further clarifications)." - does not appear the case as their only work itself was non-notable
"Has been placed in rotation nationally by a major radio or music television network." - no evidence of this in currently available sourcing that I have found
"Has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or television network." - no evidence of this in currently available sourcing that I have found TheSandDoctorTalk 19:48, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. While I personally feel the proliferation of articles about minor parties isn't a good thing, consensus here is clear enough. Vanamonde (Talk) 19:01, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Notability not established. Party has no elected members and coverage is routine for a newly announced party. There are also WP:NOTPROMO concerns, given that the election only a few weeks away. 1292simon (talk) 06:11, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep (as article creator) – creation of articles for political parties, even minor ones, registered with the Australian Electoral Commission or a state electoral commission is routine and frequent and has been for years, and is a valuable part of comprehensive historical election coverage in Australia. Content is in no way promotional (my editing history in politics and elections should make that clear), and yes the state election is in a few weeks but LCQ was the only party registered with the Electoral Commission of Queensland with no article. --Canley (talk) 06:36, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The general (admittedly informal) rule has been to have separate articles for parties that are registered and run endorsed candidates in federal or state elections. We have made rare exceptions for the truly obscure, but this is clearly not one of them. Canley's point above easily refutes any WP:NOTPROMO concerns and there is adequate (though not extensive) sourcing, with more inevitable over the next few weeks. Frickeg (talk) 07:34, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Draftify This seems like a case of WP:TOSOON. As it appears that know one has ran for the party, there are hardly sources about it or people who are running in connection to it, and last time I checked a political party has to have some winning candidates to be notable anyway. That said, I wouldn't have a problem with it being drafted to the article creators user space so it can be worked on to the point of being notable if it ever is. There's really no guarantee at this point that it will be though. As a side thought, if the article creator (or anyone else) thinks that the purpose of Wikipedia is to be a place for "comprehensive historical election coverage" of Australia or anywhere else, then they should really revaluate things and review the guidelines. --Adamant1 (talk) 10:06, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It may not be a topic that interests you, but it's patently obvious that hundreds of Wikipedians have created thousands of articles of comprehensive election coverage and the many times this information is referenced in the media and research shows it is useful and valuable—there's certainly no guideline against it as you suggest. Speaking of guidelines, where is the rule "the last time [you] checked" that "a political party has to have some winning candidates to be notable anyway"? --Canley (talk) 02:11, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Here are some sources that mention the party and/or its candidates that could be used to expand the article and help justify its notability:
I am not able to verify or use some of the sources myself as some are behind a paywall. Helper201 (talk) 17:56, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. There has been significant coverage of this party, as shown above, the article should just be improved rather than being deleted. Political parties only need significant coverage to be notable, they don't need elected members. Many historically important and influential parties (such as the Communist Parties in a lot of countries) would be removed from the site if having an MP is the sole definer of notability.

This was kept 12 years for minor awards that most definitely do not cut the mustard now. Seems an epic GNG and ENT fail and as a BLP needs better sourcing. My first 5 pages of search had nothing worthwhile and there was nothing on the news tab either. Her breakout mainstream film role (singular) does not justify a page of its own.

Weak delete The case of notable porn star without reliable sources strikes back. The problem here is that Hannah Montana was almost called Alexis Texas, so that’s pretty much the only safe for work stuff you will find with that name. I do believe that industry specific sources like AVN should be allowed to keep though. Trillfendi (talk) 19:05, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
comment if this page can't pass ENT, then no pornstar can pass ENT, and all of them would have to pass GNG. —usernamekiran (talk) 21:26, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Claims of meeting any criterion of WP:ENT need the support of much better quality sources. The article has a large number of citations, but nearly all of them fall under the interview, press release, appearance credit or porn award roster categories. Do independent reliable sources acknowledge significant roles in multiple notable productions, a significant fan base or a cult following? Porn awards don't cut it without independent RS acknowledgement. • Gene93k (talk) 22:06, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Gene93k, Usernamekiran, and Trillfendi: This has been done below. Given the prominence of this figure, there is probably even more out there. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 10:05, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep - At the least, WP:ENT #2 & #3 apply. Without time to dig super deep on sources ("Texas" makes the task more difficult), her inclusion in Confessions of the Hundred Hottest Porn Stars: ... Tell-Alls from the Biggest Names in the Biz serves as an accurate characterization. She has been one of the most well-known figures in the field for about a decade. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 12:26, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I see the suitability of this source has been challenged below. Irregardless, this figure was still the third most followed pornographic actor at one time (or close to; assuming that trend followed across other social media platforms) as explicitly pointed out and reliably cited by Morbidthoughts below. That alone meets criteria criterion #2 of WP:ENT. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 13:33, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Per Godsy. Coverage goes beyond her name's "connection" to Hannah Montana. Article is good enough to pass WP:ENT. ASTIG😎(ICE T • ICE CUBE) 16:00, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep focus of sole biography by notable publisher, per Godsy. Not to mention "Alexis Texas porn" getting 1,830 hits on google books [7], not to mention being cited in one book length study of "female genital cosmetic surgery" as "one of the most successful porn stars of the decade" [8]. The many mentions in books seems to throw if a BEFORE search was properly done into question. I would love WM335td to specifically prove how these books are "porn industry publications". GuzzyG (talk) 16:34, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Just a add on since the books were ignored by the bottom below vote, i know this means nothing on it's own, but as a cherry on top from the books; here's her page views from every wiki language [9], 17 mil total - 5.4mil in Farsi, 1mil in Spanish, 1mil in Turkish and nearly a mil in Arabic. Which proves atleast being known internationally. To compare a more local but obviously important figure, Joseph Smith, [10] he gets 7mil - with no million views in a language other than English. While fame isn't important, when you mix biographies from reputable publishers, book mentions and 10 mil more pageviews than established figures with clear notability and including international views, i think that paints a overall more clearer picture of notability. GuzzyG (talk) 04:57, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The likely problem here is, given the commonplace disagreements over pornographic figures regarding awards and whatnot, that some cannot distinguish extremely notable cases (as in this case). Moreover, some likely cannot get past the social taboo of the subject or simply morally stigmatize it (and are thereby unconversant). Alexis Texas is almost certainly in the top 100 (if not 50 or less) most prominent figures in the field of all time. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 10:00, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, i've witnessed the pro-longed years long beat down of the criteria for porn stars, yet none for the "one game pro sports stars" biographies which points to it being a moral thing. The killer is industry specific sources are labled as "non bias" and "promotional" but a one film actor can have a source in Variety (magazine) and it's ok. But Alexis and Mandingo (who was deleted) being non notable is obviously way off base. Alexis has gotten 5.4 million views in the Farsi wikipedia. If that does not show for some sort of notability than half of wiki would not qualify, it's just hardly any other field gets their primary/industry specific sources banned. Ion Cuțelaba would fit these same arguments, "would never get developed more than a stub" etc and is completely sourced to mma specific sites, but they're not banned. Apply that to every field. It's got to the point where the people who win the main award in porn are considered "not notable" and some don't have articles, some are even in pop culture like Lana Rhoades and don't have one or even where this was a relisted discussion despite her being cited as "one of the most successful porn stars of the decade" in a book [11] published by a reliable publisher of academic journals and books Springer Publishing and not by a complete irrelevant random person [12], not to mention the biography you found with another publisher who has a wiki, yet this was doubted in a way and relisted for discussion. Pageviews don't mean nothing on their own, but here's Megan Thee Stallion, a popstar currently all over the mainstream media and yet has only 6.2 mil[13], compared with Alexis 17.4mil - which shows it's not just some completely normal thing to have that many views. There's a massive stigma on here, but there's nothing you can do when only porn has it's industry sources seen as unreliable. It's a ridiculous standard and not surprising for a field dominated by women, it just sucks that gay/trans porn performers are even worse off, because they don't get the attention sometimes hetero performers do and rely purely on industry sources and as such have it worse on here. GuzzyG (talk) 16:05, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Just a note that the fact she was reliably sourced to a gender studies scholar as "one of the most successful porn stars of the decade" which was conveniently skipped over and not addressed. How do we judge notability if a actual scholar of a related field mentions someone as the top performer?" We can't expect front page NYT coverage of a porn star because it would likely lead to outrage considering the US's social conservatism - which is why she only gets featured in Canadian newspapers [14], so what else do we have if not gender studies scholars? Here's the average television actress - Andrea Elson, routine coverage due to one main role on the ALF show, sources to a routine award and nothing but routine coverage of the show. Article not likely to grow beyond a stub or start and nothing like a indepth bio is likely. Also likely never had the same level of following. This is how the average actor is covered. We just hold porn stars to a unrealistic standard that is not held site wide. Andrea Elson is not in no academic study either. GuzzyG (talk) 17:39, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The Alexis Texas Handbook is not a book, and is not coverage that counts toward notability. IT IS A GODDAMN 18-PAGE PAMPHLET REPRINTING AN OLD VERSION OF THE ALEXIS TEXAS EN-WIKI PAGE AND SOME RELATED PAGES. It also wasn't published by Heinemann. It's a ridiculously overpriced piece of print-on-demand junk from a no-name predatory "publisher". The argument that this performer's independent RS coverage is flimsy and insubstantial is solidly made and the counterargument is obviously poorly researched and unconvincing.

Comment my !Vote hasn't changed, and would be curious if HW has something besides the caps lock to back up his assertion. Regardless, believe there's enough to establish notability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Star Mississippi (talk • contribs) 00:01, October 14, 2020 (UTC)
Comment Considering the academic sources to "most popular" are continuously ignored, let me do a post on the record dissecting WP:ENT, going indepth and how "industry publications" is only used to dismiss porn and no other field (because they still have their SNGs). It's worth noting that pornography is directly responsible for Wikipedia and it's original funding Bomis[17][18]. Which is odd because its the one field held to above standards and that the porn stars whose images are responsible for wiki would probably not qualify on here, which is ironic.
Let's see how ENT relates to Alexa
Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions
(Well Alexis Texas is Buttwoman was industry defining and than there's Aroused (film) which is direct documentary coverage of the subjects life and covered indepth in the Canadian newspaper i linked above. The fact that the first film was deleted by the same types who have deleted porn articles for years means nothing. Ice Cream Man (film) is a normal type of film with no indepth sources, but it's not held to the same example as a porn film. Bandz a Make Her Dance was big. Making a porn performer qualify by a rule meant for "television shows and stage performances" seems unnecessary)
Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following
If 17 million wikipedia pages views with 5 million in Farsi [19] do not cross this barrier then alot of the mainstream celebrities wouldn't qualify. as i shown with Megan Thee Stallion not even being close to that [20], despite having a number one song currently.
Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.
(Let's not kid ourselves (by using tv actors) that every other kind of actor listed on wiki has made these same level of transformative contributions, as a rule this is super fluff and meaningless really. Benji Gregory, Andrea Elson, Terri Treas, M. C. Gainey and i can list THOUSANDs more actors that just have routine coverage related to the tv character role they played - they're not transformative, unique - just prolific. But so is Alexis at over 800 roles [21]. Why are TV actors not held to this same example?
Lets look at other fields, since tv actors could be listed for days.
Sports; Ion Cuțelaba - a MMA article only sourced to sites like "mmajunkie" "bloodyelbow" "mmafighting" "Mmanews". if this was a porn article it'd be "industry publications". Could KidAd explain how it's different? The MMA SNG makes him qualify, but why exactly is it different?
Politics; Alondra Cano extremely routine position and seat - are we supposed to list every city council member, why is the routine coverage here any different?
Music; Arcane Device There's absolutely no sources here.
Music; Mark Dinning here's a musician that's charted number one, but Billboard (magazine) is a INDUSTRY PUBLICATION. So dismissing Billboard (We don't), what else is there? Two articles relating to him passing away? That wouldn't help a porn performer, would it? Where is the indepth sources for this article? It qualifies by the SNG, but why is the treatment different?
Sports; Every single sports player who has only played one professional match and yet has a wiki.
It's clearly obvious that porn articles are held to different standards and that under the inquisition porn articles get that 50% of articles on here relating to arts/entertainment would be removed. The porn SNG should never have been removed and it's a massive disservice to Wikipedia if 5 million people who have viewed this article on english wikipedia are going to be inconvenienced by it's removal. Especially when academic sources acknowledge Texas as one of the most popular of her field. How is "industry publications" a legitmate argument when Billboard (magazine) and Rolling Stone are music industry publications at their core and are the only reason we have articles for thousands of musicians and same with Variety (magazine) and film. Why is the treatment different? This is a massive time sink and it'll be a massive hassle when someone does a biographical dictionary of pornography and they all have to be added back. Or worse, have to be rewritten months after their deletion because they died like August Ames, which acknowledged that mainstream sources DO Acknowledge porn. If the goal is to stop the tabloidness of the encyclopedia, it seems funny that the only way articles on porn stars are for certain kept is if they get death coverage like Ames, gossip stuff like Stormy Daniels or multiple reality tv appearances like Jenna Jameson, all tabloid reasons. So in keeping out porn articles for their success in the field, it only reinforces even more the tabloid nature because then they only qualify by tabloid means. Funny.

Keep. There appears to be sufficient evidence of notability. (Note: I came here from the discussion on the reliable sources noticeboard.) --Guy Macon (talk) 21:51, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Just because PORNBIO was deprecated doesn't mean that Texas doesn't fall under WP:ANYBIO. Sure, I get that most porn awards are practically meaningless because there's so many much like the endless amount of "Game of the Year" awards given by niche entities and winning multiple times for Most Epic Ass doesn't make Texas notable. But she's been nominated four times for the AVN "Female Performer of the Year" and she's been covered in numerous other sources that have been recently added to the article. Plus I object to this idea that pornographic industry publications are "not enough" to establish notability. This has no basis in policy or fact beyond some sort of WP:IDONTLIKEIT argument that pornographic trade publications differ from music industry, game industry, movie industry, or practically any other industry publication in some way. Pornographic performers are like other performers and we should treat them the same way; not better (like PORNBIO entails) or worse (like this discussion is suggesting).

Keep The article in its current includes news items, book publications, and award nominations. More than enough to establish notability for an actress. Dimadick (talk) 13:07, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Meets WP:ENT criterion 2. This is shown by the evidence presented by Morbidthoughts and GuzzyG. More generally, it seems there is a systemic bias against porn actors (also visible in this recent AfD). We keep deeming subjects notable because of SNG that would otherwise struggle to have even a claim of significance. I'm thinking here, for example, of football players who have come on as a sub in a single pro match with no evidence other than the match statistics (WP:NFOOTBALL). I know this line of argument tends towards WP:OTHERSTUFF but for the sake of improving the project I think the article should be kept. Modussiccandi (talk) 17:04, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comments: Wikipedia is not censored. Other stuff is reportedly not a good argument at AFD yet is offered almost daily. Repeatedly rehashing that "Wikipedia" is biased towards porn (or "systemic bias against porn actors" - with a non-convincing link) is an indirect form of casting aspersions that in these individual discussions gives the appearance that "if" someone does not agree they are guilty by association.
I do not have an issue with the listing of accomplishments that are part of a bio, but scene awards do not advance notability when the source is not deemed independent. I did not even know there were so may ways to present an ass award, Best Ass (Fan's Choice), Hottest Ass (Fan Award), Best Butt (Fan Choice), Most Epic Ass (Fan Award) or the comparable Favorite Bottom, Hottest Bottom. I am against all trade industry type only notability criteria so not specifically biased to one in particular.
My stating here (my "plug" in this discussion) that the inundation of "almost all porn articles" with the same external links, 1)- IMDb, 2)- Internet Adult Film Database, 3)- Adult Film Database, regardless if they offer anything according to the guidelines (WP:ELBLP, WP:ELMIN) or WP:NOT, as a way to add corporate "communication strategies" or site promotion, has no bearing on the notability of this article. We should really take these discussions where they belong, like the talk page, relevant policy page, that particular editor the comments might be referring to, or the next new essay someone is itching to write.
It should be noted that Armond Rizzo (the example of bias listed above) does not even have an external link section. The "add these links to every related article" fan club must have missed it. Otr500 (talk) 10:22, 25 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete. The rationale is bad, but I am not seeing sources that suggest the topic is notable, outside of it being in the Guiness book of records.

Keep, sort of. Trying a web search on a descriptive phrase that the search engine can digest (Aristophanes long word would do) will throw up a very large number of pages where this word is mentioned, typically as a curiosity – the ones I've checked neither provide in-depth treatment nor are particularly reliable (think mentalfloss), but there's lots of them. Are they enough to establish notability? Don't know, probably not. But if you consider that a sizeable chunk of this long-ish Wikipedia article is about the various translations of this word into English, that the Classical play that the word appears in has been translated into at least dozens of languages, and that translating this in each of those instances would have been a challenge, the sort of challenge that translators like to write about, then it appears likely there should be decent literature on the topic out there, for those who know where to look. Regardless, the question now is not whether to keep, but where to keep: in a separate article, or as a section of another one. Apart from the largely theoretical question of stand-alone notability, the practicalities of merging don't look promising. Longest words is a long list that can reasonably only accommodate a mention of this long word rather than any other sort of content about it. Assemblywomen#Longest word is a better target, but if the whole of the article were merged there, the end result would appear to be placing undue emphasis on that word. And paring down before merging isn't much of an option either, as almost all of the content is essential – what the word means and how it translates into English, and that appears long only because the topic is a word that is long. All in all, keeping it as it is seems like the lesser evil here. – Uanfala (talk) 16:42, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I would not consider CelebMix to be a reliable source, and there was a WP:RSN discussion (here) with a consensus that it is not reliable. It is discouraged to use the Daily Mail on Wikipedia per this so that is not usable. The Universal Music Group source is a primary source since that company released the single.

Delete I wouldn't call her being a gym owner that's a friend of someone in a show a "main role." That aside, she played in the TV series Carla Cametti PD. Which only had six episodes and then was canceled. Whatever her role in the show was, considering it's short run it would be a massive stretch to call it a "notable TV" series. Other then those two shows, she's only had minor guest appearances. Which I don't think makes her pass WP:NACTOR. Nor does her appearing in some reviewed stage shows. Notability is not inherited and there needs to be multiple in-depth reliable sources about her, not things she might have briefly appeared in. Which seems to be all there is and in an extremely small amount on top of it. --Adamant1 (talk) 11:09, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - your comment doesn't make any sense. The article doesn't say she is a gym owner that is a friend of someone in a main show? She was a main cast actor in some TV shows as well as a stage actor. Deus et lex (talk) 20:16, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The above !vote is full of lies and misunderstandings. "Carla Cametti PD. Which only had six episodes and then was canceled." Bullshit. Carla Cametti PD was from the very start a mini series. [31] It ran it's full length. It was not cancelled. Plus notability is not determined by the length of a shows run. "I wouldn't call her being a gym owner that's a friend of someone in a show a "main role." What like Ray Donovan (gym co owner and friend of multiple someones)? Your personals judgement. "Other then those two shows, she's only had minor guest appearances." Bullshit. She was one of two co leads in Wedlocked. A third significant role in a notable TV series. She was also a regular in Richmond Hill (TV series). A fourth? [32] She was also a co lead in Black & White & Sex. A significant role in a film. The above commentary about plays betrays a fundamental misunderstanding about notability. Whats the short version of what makes something notable? Coverage in independent reliable sources. What makes a stage show notable? The same thing. So in short if a stage show gets multiple reviews it is notable. Therefore significant roles in these shows is more evidence of satisfying NACTOR which she easily passes. Other significant roles in notable productions Varda Che Bruta...Poretta (Look How Ugly She is...Poor Thing)[33][34] (only actor, clearly a significant role. and she wrote it), The Gods of Strangers[35], Popular Front[36][37]. For additional info one can visit the National Library of Australia and look through this. duffbeerforme (talk) 03:55, 8 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
First of all, I was basing my comment about the show being canceled on the fact that the "miniseries" was called "season 1." Which insinuated to me that maybe they were planning more. Otherwise, I know why they would make the distinction. Many mini-series' have multiple seasons and get canceled half way through their run anyway though. So your whole "it didn't get canceled because it was a mini-series" thing is obviously bullshit (your words). Second, I don't know who Ray Donovan is and I don't really give a shit (again your words) anyway, because WP:OTHERSTUFF is not a valid AfD argument. The fact is she was a gym owner who was a friend of the main character. Period. I don't think that would qualify as a "main role." If you do cool. I don't give a shit (again, your words). What makes something a "main role" is 100% based on opinion and nothing else. So, your right it's "my opinion" and I never claimed otherwise. Just like it's "your opinion" that it is one or that her roles were "significant." As far as the stage show thing goes, not everyone who is in the stage show is notable just because they were in it and the show is notable, and there's zero evidence that her role in it was "significant." Again, that's totally based on my personal opinion though and I never claimed otherwise. Your free to disagree. I could really give a fuck.

Don't make up quotes that people didn't write. Just like you made up facts to support your argument. Don't know who Ray Donovan is? You could try look it up. It makes a joke of your suggestion that that being a gym owner and a friend means that the role can't be main. Carla? What says "season 1". You made up the cancelled claim based on that? rolls eyes. "What makes something a "main role" is 100% based on opinion and nothing else." Bullshit. Read reviews, read summaries, read commentary and base it on that. "there's zero evidence that her role in it was "significant."" How about her role in Varda Che Bruta...Poretta then. Got any comment on Wedlocked, Richmond Hill and Black & White & Sex or are you ignoring them? "This AfD likely isn't going to hinge on our opinions anyway."

Keep A search on 'NetLink Trust' may not turn up anything significant as this Trust was established in 2013 to buy out its predecessor, OpenNet. But for all intent and purposes, both are one and the same in terms of their company objectives and goals, which is to build and maintain Singapore's national-wide fibre backbone. There is significant coverage of either entity on national level. That being said, this article can be further expanded (possibly retitled as well to 'Next-gen national broadband network (Singapore)') with various information such as the motivations for building up such a network; issues faced during implementation as OpenNet, be it regulatory issues or installation issues; questions on diversity and resilience of national networks (re: Singtel#Bukit_Panjang_Exchange_fire); alternatives to NetLink Trust's network .
An extraction from your comment above reads A search on 'NetLink Trust' may not turn up anything significant, and you are !voting to keep an article that doesn’t turn up anything significant thus failing to satisfy WP:ORG? Furthermore, what you just did by listing references in a disorderly manner is definitely intentionally disruptive, adjust that. Celestina007 (talk) 03:27, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Celestina007: NetLink Trust may not turn up anything significant since majority of the work, and thus majority of the coverage, was done under its predecessor, OpenNet. You are deliberately focusing on one part of my response. Like I said, NetLink Trust and OpenNet for all intents and purposes are the same company, and should be considered as such. I vote for keep on basis of the bolded words in the previous statement. What may seems insignificant company to a non-Singapore based editor is significant to a Singapore based editor, given that this company is Singapore-based in nature, and focuses primarily on Singapore's national infrastructure with no or little international coverage. As for the sources above, if it seems disruptive to you, my apologies, but I do not believe so.

Keep meets the notability criteria for actors having had significant roles in several notable productions. Excellent work by DiamondRemley39 greatly improving on the content and sourcing of the entry. FloridaArmy (talk) 12:35, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Care to elaborate which are these "significant roles in several notable productions"? Her role in the Green-Eyed Blonde, a rather obscure film, seems to be her most significant role, and even there she is a supporting actor more than a lead. None of her other roles seem to fit the NACTOR requirement? Fram (talk) 12:45, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I can't speak for FloridaArmy, but I can address some of this. Playing Claudia in Claudia is significant. NACTOR doesn't call for lead actor. A review of that film states that no one really is the "lead" in that film and her performance is commented on. A film's obscurity is not only irrelevant in a discussion (see WP:OBTOP), it's also subjective. Will keep looking for more coverage that should make her notability clearer. --DiamondRemley39 (talk) 13:27, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No, playing Claudia in a touring production of Claudia (play) isn't significant if that tour isn't significant. Being the Claudia of the 1941 premiere, yes, or the Claudia of Claudia (1943 film) as well probably. But plays get staged again and again with different actors and in different locations all the time, and being the lead in one of these productions is not an indication of notability. This "Claudia" performance is so notable that it gets a small announcement at the bottom of page 57,and Tommie Moore gets this: "Leads are Tommie Moore, who has acted in films on the Coast, and Harrel Tillman, film actor and band vocalist." A role which gets you half of one sentence is not the kind of role which makes you meet WP:NACTOR. Even her role in Green-Eyed Blonde gets "Other standouts are Tommie Moore, Beverly Long and Linda Plowman". Again, this is all the attention she gets in that article in Variety. That's a very passing mention, not the stuff NACTOR is about. Fram (talk) 14:04, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Direct me to a guideline that says the tour has to be of a certain level of significance for it to count for an actor's notability. What would that even mean? Most professional tours are of significance in the history of the production of the play. What matters is the coverage. Significance is subjective, but many would say that a tour of Claudia with an all-black cast in 1946 that received coverage is "significant". How thoroughly did you review the sources? Did you read the article titled, "Tommie Moore, Actress and Model, Leaves on Tour of "Claudia" for Negro Drama Gp."? That's not a passing mention. Regarding her work in Green-Eyed Blonde, the text of the review calling her out as a good (or bad) performer should not be mischaracterized as a passing mention. It would amount to a namecheck on a cast list. This was more than that and it demonstrates that she had a decently sized role in the film. Again, more coming when I can get my hands on some books. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 14:22, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NACTOR says "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions." (emphasis mine). The 1946 tour / reprise of Claudia is not a notable stage performance. It gets some routine announcements at the time, and that's it. So her role as Claudia is a significant role in a non-notable production of a notable play. Fram (talk) 14:52, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - WP:NPOL does indeed say that elected national politicians can be presumed to be notable, but it doesn't say that those who aren't elected, automatically aren't notable. This man's notability rests not only on his participation in elections but on his position as national secretary of a national political party, to which the tickbox of elected / not elected doesn't apply.

This film does not satisfy film notability guidelines, and probably will not satisfy them until the film is released. There is a common misunderstanding of film notability guidelines that films are notable when principal photography is completed. The full guideline, and in particular the guideline on future films, states that films are not notable until principal photography is completed, but that between the completion of production and release, they are seldom notable, and are only notable if production itself has been notable. This film is not an exception to the rule that unreleased films are seldom notable. It will be notable when it has been released and reviewed.

A somewhat hesitant nomination, because there's tantalizing hints of this character meeting GNG, but after a fairly detailed search I have only been able to find one independent source providing substantive analysis, rather than plot detail, about Anders (here).

Weak keep. The current article is very bad (pure plot summary). But I don't understand the comment "That source is pretty inaccessible, content-wise, and likely ought to be treated at Cylon (Battlestar Galactica)." The cited source is pretty good, with some analysis interposed with plot summary. There is also a two page essayish and rambling treatment of him in [47], not sure if the book is even reliable, seems like fancrut bookified. There may be something in [48] but I only get a snippet view. Interesting sentence: "Their only regret is that we didn ' t have a chapter devoted exclusively to the aesthetic value of Samuel T . Anders" . Anyway, did you search for his name without the T? I did and I also found [49], which seemst to again discuss this character on 2+ pages, and goes way beyond the plot summary (feminization, etc.). I think that there is enough in sources here that someone who cares abot these themes could write a good section about reception/analysis. I will also note that there are several GScholar works that mention this character, through most seem to be in passing, but again, if anyone cares, maybe there is a paragraph of analysis hidden somewhere among that dozen or so GScholar hits. Still, given the decent coverage in two books that goes beyond plot summary or a sentnece or two, with each yielding a page+ content about him, I think he is notable (although that plot summary masquarading as an article is almost TNT-able...). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:09, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I mean only that the material has to do with gender and cyborgs, and could be handled at our page about the cylons. The "unauthorized guide" source I give no weight to; I'm come across it before, and it's pure plot summary, so far as I can tell. The passing mention, too, is not something I can give much weight to; "we could cover Anders but chose not to" is not a substitute for detailed coverage. this source I have similar concerns with as the first; it's more a discussion of gender among "hybrids" than it is an analysis of Anders; I'm willing to be persuaded, though. I'm surprised I didn't find it, I definitely did a search without the "T". Vanamonde (Talk) 15:07, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect - I'd say redirecting to a relevant character list and exploring the available sources from there would be the best. If they can only produce a paragraph of text, then it'd be better spent to improve the list. If it turns out they add a lot of weight, then the article can be brought back at that time. TTN (talk) 17:08, 16 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I will go with Redirect. The article currently has 2565 words of "readable prose" supported by one reference that is a question/answer interview with the Executive producer covering what appears to be a partial paragraph in the "Revelation" section. It has been rumored that "Wikipedia does not publish WP:original research". The only possible way to check where the content (currently in the article) came from would be to look at theBattlestar Wiki in the "External links". That, however, is not an acceptable source, likely not acceptable as an external link, and if a source is to be used as a reference it should not be from a link in the "External links" section anyway. There may be acceptable "sources out there" (somewhere) but if content can't be verified it should not be in an article. The bottom line is: To be acceptable as a stand alone article it would pretty much have to be chopped to a very thin stub with more than one supporting source. Just adding references, or stating they are "out there" does not solve the issue of OR. This would mean the article title should be redirected. Someday someone may choose to create an acceptable sourced article. It should be noted that the character is portrayed by a living person so the article falls under WP:BLP which states, This policy applies to any living person mentioned in a BLP, whether or not that person is the subject of the article, and to material about living persons in other articles and on other pages, including talk pages.

Keep Alright, I’m skeptical of the idea that a user or commenter on any platform can become notable for their comments. I can’t imagine why reliable sources would offer significant coverage of such a person. But... here they did. Contrary to the above, I read the sources listed in the article here to offer sufficient coverage of this person to permit the drafting of an article, and don’t think that they can be dismissed as “puff pieces.” (And even if they were, significant puff coverage in reliable puff sources still creates notability.) Given that reliable sources believe this person to be sufficiently interesting and notable to write about him, I don’t see an argument for us not having an article under the general notability guidelines. Like I said, that FEELS weird, but... you know, that’s where the notability guidelines take us here, so I’m gonna roll with it. (And someone’s got to !vote here by including the copypasta, but I’m not the one to do it.)— TheOtherBob 19:05, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@TheOtherBob: There is definitely one reliable source with significant coverage; what's the second one? --JBL (talk) 20:38, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I count two articles just in CNET, as well as one in Medium, that I think would easily meet the standards. (I can’t add those easily on mobile, but Google will turn them up easily.) I also view the multiple articles discussing the tipping policy as contributing to notability, though I realize those are closer calls; when you’ve got a lot of coverage, the fact that any individual article is short or primarily on a related but separate topic doesn’t bother me. So, weird as it may be, this looks like sufficient coverage. - TheOtherBob 21:09, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Medium is not a reliable source. Praxidicae (talk) 17:55, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This sort of tendentious nonsense is why people think poorly of Wikipedia... I said it didn’t matter, and in this case you’re probably right that it doesn’t count, but you guys just can’t drop it. So, fine, since you won’t, you can go back and re-read what you linked me to — which says, and I quote, “unless the author is a subject matter expert or the blog is used for uncontroversial self-descriptions.” In other words, like I said, sometimes it is, sometimes it’s not.

This is utterly false. An admin decided to make this user the focus of their beta test for one new feature, but he is not "responsible" for them developing this feature. As if anyone responsible for a website's routine actions is automatically notable anyway. Reywas92Talk 20:53, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh god Delete delete delete I use Reddit too and there are a lot of anonymous users known within the site for posting a lot, this is absurd. It is certainly notable for the Reddit article that they have added a new feature, but this user is just a meme, and coverage is puff pieces about memes or passing mentions. Reywas92Talk 20:53, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and Redirect - There are two interesting things here - that the meme keeps the match fresh in people's memories, and that Reddit implemented a tipping feature. Therefore, I merged some of this relevant content to Reddit#Other features and a new section I created called Hell in a Cell#In popular culture. I'm a bit torn which should be the redirect though. My initial thinking is to send the redirect to the Hell in a Cell content, since Chris' initial notability was established by his meme, not the tipping. If the tipping takes off and coverage expands listing him as the first beneficiary, I could be persuaded to change this opinion. Until then, it's a bit WP:TOOSOON to make Reddit the redirect. Cheers! TimTempleton(talk)(cont) 21:48, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like my attempt to salvage the info by merging it in the Hell in a Cell article was reverted by Mr. Hell in a Cell as being irrelevant. [[50]] He must not want the real world to intrude in the make believe world of wrestling. So there's another inadvertent vote against Shittymorph's notability.

Lightburst you'd have a point perhaps if that piece were written by their editorial staff and not a contributor. Praxidicae (talk) 17:59, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There is no requirement that the editorial board of a reliable source have written the article. - TheOtherBob 22:41, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
He means a staff writer, not an outside contributor. Forbes has "Forbes Contributors" who are often outside writers with business relationships with the companies they write about, lessening the impartiality and thus the reliability of the pieces.

In the case of Forbes that sort of thing can be a problem, totally agree. But this author is someone with 5,257 articles on CNET on a wide range of topics, apparently focusing primarily on NASA, so it’d be pretty remarkable if she were biased. - TheOtherBob 23:15, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lots of sources with 0 in-depth coverage of him. --JBL (talk) 22:09, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This one is borderline but the arguments for deletion appear more cogent. Yes, the articles in CNET constitute significant coverage in a reliable and independent source. WP:BASIC calls for multiple sources of this kind. It may be thought that the host of sources about his participation in the beta testing are enough to satisfy this. I don't think so: they all have largely the same content and are clearly not intellectually independent of each other (which is also called for in WP:BASIC). They also don't meet the bar for significant coverage. In general, the abundance of sources on this one aspect makes me think the article could also fall under WP:ONEEVENT. To sum up: the subject fails WP:GNG/WP:BASIC. Modussiccandi (talk) 17:44, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I fail to see why this doesn't clearly qualify as WP:ONEEVENT at best.

During a WP:BEFORE search I really struggled to find anything other than the usual databases, which merely list him as a referee.

It looks like this was made by a single purpose account that was also used to make articles about the Tiny the Terrible documentary A Man Among Giants and its director Rod Webber and has only edited articles about those topics. Take a look at its edits. This supposedly well known wrestler has no major coverage outside of Boston, MA publications The Boston Globe and The Boston Herald. He has never been the subject of a national publication, let alone an international one. This attempted politician has never won an election, and even though the article calls him a "former WWE pro-wrestler," his professional wrestling career has never included a full-time run in a major company like WWE. Hundreds of thousands of people have appeared as extras on WWE TV and this is just one of those people. This person does not meet wikipedia's Notability standards and also seems to violate wikipedia's rules to not be written by a subject close to the article.

Comment What makes the film notable? It has no coverage outside of Boston and Hoboken. And an impact in wrestling? He's never had a run with any major company in his entire career. Wrestling is different from general sports in that a one-time appearance in WWE doesn't constitute notability. This autobiographical article or article written by someone connected to the topic at best does not describe how this person has made any remotely substantial influence in pro wrestling, where people have sometimes 10 or more year runs in major companies and this person had a one night run. Your comment states that he "has made an impact in Wrestling" but does not describe any such impact and indicates that he starred in "a notable film" when no sources indicate that the film received coverage outside of the Northeast, and the article on the film seems to have been written by someone close to the topic. Furthermore, as far as I'm concerned the only sources the film has are Boston sources. The Hoboken International Film Festival web site hypes that you can submit coverage at https://www.hobokeninternationalfilmfestival.com/submit-films, so that's probably what happened with this film. In addition to all that, one of the Hoboken International Film Festival links (source 5, http://www.fest21.com/en/blog/todd/special_to_the_hoboken_film_festival_2008_a_man_among_giants) is a broken link. And the second link (https://web.archive.org/web/20110712213426/http://www.hobokeninternationalfilmfestival.com/2008schedule.php) is a mere schedule for airing of films. If we listed on wikipedia that was aired at a film festival, wikipedia would have way too many articles. Your article makes three assumptions - 1. that "he has RS," 2. that he "has made an impact in Wrestling," and 3. that he has "starred in a notable film." None of those three assumptions seem to hold water.Coffeeman619 (talk) 18:11, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Not convinced by any of the delete arguments. He was covered by major mainstream outlets, it really does not matter that they were in the New England market.

The result was delete. I wasn't around in 2004 but I joined in 2005 and read enough dramaboards to say that it was a very different place. It was certainly a more homogeneous community which allowed for us to have fun. Then we made the mistake of doing a good enough job on the whole be one of the world's largest websites and, despite our protests to the contrary, become one of the leading reference sources in the English speaking world.[citation needed] Our community is more diverse which carries certain advantages (we're only pretty systemically biased instead of being incredibly systemically biased!) but also means that we've had to "grow up". Rather than fun, in 2020 we have April Fools "jokes" that are so amusing that they find a way to cause multiple noticeboard discussions and RfCs. So instead we're left with policies and guidelines like "No Original Research" (an oldie but a goodie). The discussion here seems to suggest that the WP:Let whatever Floquenbeam likes exist guideline might have some support but alas that isn't the discussion I'm closing. So instead we end up with a delete consensus. However, there is clearly enough support for the tomfoolery of days gone by that it could certainly exist in someone's userspace (or perhaps even project space) and I would have to burnish the "no fun stick" that I was given instead of a mop to anyone suggesting it be WP:G4 (abbreviations impenetrable to outsides? Just as good in 2020 as 2005). Barkeep49 (talk) 01:45, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
List of works with the subtitle "Virtue Rewarded"[edit]
Not only does this blatantly fail WP:LISTN (there are no sources discussing these works as a group), but the prose introduction to the list is just WP:OR trying to explain a common theme to the works. This is a pretty clear example of WP:NOTDIR #6 and shouldn't be here. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:12, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Yes, well. It's an old joke from 2004, showcasing my primitive sense of humour and my interest in obscure 17th-century literature. Feel free to delete. Bishonen | tålk 15:18, 4 October 2020 (UTC).[reply]
Keep, per the rationales of most of those who commented at the previous two AFD's (which for some reason aren'tweren't mentioned here (they are now)). I wish it was still 2004, when all the quirkiness hadn't been relentlessly sucked out of the place, and a bunch of smart and witty and clever people (I even saw Geogre's name in the history, which brought a brief smile to my face) could create something for the sheer joy of creating it. I know, I know, even Bish has never supported keeping it. I know, I know, WP:ILIKEIT and WP:NOTDIR and WP:NOFUNALLOWED and lots of other bluelinks. I know, I know, we are an ever so much more serious encyclopedia than we were back then. I know, I know, this is going to get deleted this time. But when sociologists of the future study the rapid loss of fun and joy and personality in Wikipedia between around 2007 and 2020, I hope they note that, although the drop in support for this article between the AFD of 2007 and this one was stark, there was still one lone holdout even in darkest 2020. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:37, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Wikipedia is not supposed to group things merely by shared name. That is exactly what this list is doing.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:01, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for the reasons given by Floquenbeam and in the previous deletion discussions. It is a sad but typical comment on the way that Wikipedia has developed over the years that, whereas in 2006 and 2007 there was strong support for keeping, now there is scarcely any. JBW (talk) 20:48, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - A quick Google search finds some supporting citations for the content in the lede (such as this), and there may be more out there. The page seems like a worthwhile collection of pages/titles that are related to a small, but still existent phenomenon. Interesting read and I don't think the encyclopedia adds any value from its removal. -- Ajraddatz (talk) 21:14, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The cited article only seems to be talking about one specific work, not any sort of phenomenon as a whole or the application of the subtitle to multiple works. The mere existence of this list, not to mention the prose content of the article, violates WP:NOR, one of the core policies of Wikipedia. The nomination for the second AFD explained it much better:
the items on this list have no relationship to one another beyond the author's happening to pick the same two words as a subtitle. They are drawn from multiple styles of "books" (including fiction books, textbooks, plays, poems, "erotic fiction" and anthologies) from across disparate centuries, have dissimilar protagonists, do not share the same "virtue" and the virtue does not garner the same reward. This list tells us nothing about the fiction or the real world. Keep arguments from the first AFD are incredibly poor, including among others such unpersuasive reasons as "interesting" and "well-written."
Oh, and actually there's a decent shot at WP:LISTN per [53], which suggests that the subtitle has been treated as a distinct phenomenon in its own right. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 01:33, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Re the original comment, that's a nice sentiment and all, but delightful OR is still OR; it doesn't really get a pass based on its delightfulness. And re the followup, this doesn't really help on its own. Which of these is discussing these as a group? The couple I checked from the first page sure don't seem to be. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 01:46, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There's also a tantalizing search result that I can't seem to get full access to in [54] which begins "The prevalence of subtitles such as "Virtue Rewarded," "Virtue Lost," and the like speaks to this." I know it sounds like I'm obfuscating, but I'm really not—Google just won't let me view that part. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 02:18, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Err, this link is for Writing the Self, Creating Community: German Women Authors and the Literary Sphere, 1750-1850, and I'm not sure where you're reading that; it's not in the blurb, and a full-text search for "virtue rewarded" only returns one match, which simply lists the title with no further discussion. Likewise, "subtitles" only gives one unrelated match, and "virtue lost" gives no matches. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 12:36, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - This fails WP:LISTN as there are no sources that actually discuss this grouping or phenomenon as a set. There are certainly some sources on some of the individual pieces mentioned here, but there are none that discuss the concept as a whole, making the grouping complete WP:OR. Even the creator of the article has admitted as such here. All of the keep votes here are referencing Floquenbeam's comment, but that comment does not cite any relevant policy nor provide any relevant sources, and is an entirely an WP:ILIKEIT comment, making these completely invalid arguments. They also keep citing the previous two discussions, but looking at those, none of the Keep votes in either of them actually provided any relevant arguments either - they're a mixture of WP:ITSNOTABLE and WP:ILIKEIT posts, none of which actually provide evidence that there are sources that would help this pass WP:LISTN. Rorshacma (talk) 14:50, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Mostly non-notable works that happen to share the the same two words but are otherwise unrelated. No sources discuss this phrase itself or the list as a whole, with the lead reading as original research. Reywas92Talk 19:50, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Floquenbeam's wistful look back to a time when editors had a "kinder gentler machine gun hand". But more importantly this is a legitimate list per WP:LISTNLists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability. Editors are still urged to demonstrate list notability via the grouping itself before creating stand-alone lists. The list certainly provides information and has some navigation usefulness. Also as AleatoryPonderings has shown us: [55], is a distinct phenomenon in its own right. Lightburst (talk) 21:10, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This list has no navigational or informational purpose with which to justify a keep argument. Your link is a search result one might get from Google Books when starting to look for sources. However, as noted above, nothing in those search results actually discusses the topic of the list. A "wistful look back" is also not a valid reason to keep something (even the article creator admitted it was a joke; and for the record, it was a long time ago, and I certainly don't think anyone should hold this against them either). But come on, this is an obvious delete that not even the staunchest inclusionist can justify keeping. It's time to nip this one in the bud and move on. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 21:29, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The title appeals to me in light of 2020s extreme Virtue signalling. We disagree on several subjects but I tend to defend list articles for WP:LISTN's defined purposes. I appreciate the insight from Floq - an administrator who knows where the bones are buried. Lightburst (talk) 22:16, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, per Floquenbeam, this is actually quite encyclopedic and relevant to the topic of English literature. Right cite (talk) 00:31, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Floquenbeam didn't offer a valid reason to keep. It was a case of an old hand waxing nostalgic about the good ol' days while quietly acknowledging that this is still a delete. Bald statements like this don't counter the simple lack of any sources on this topic, as has been pointed out numerous times already. Nor the violation of WP:NOR. Please have a read through WP:ATA. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 01:10, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This is a non-sensical list trying to make things seem related somehow that aren't. Plus, it's not a list of things "subtitle Virtue Rewarded" anyway. It's a list of things with the phrase "Virtue Rewarded" in them, which is completely different, or things with "Virtue Rewarded" in the title, but were isn't a subtitle. So, the list is junk that's just a repository of random, un-connected articles. Plus, all the stuf about who the virtuous person is etc. etc. is OR and better suited to an essay. The important thing to take into account with the quote above from WP:LISTN is where it says "recognizable." While this may (extremely questionably) aid in navigation Etc. Etc., it does not do so in a recognizable or meaningful way. There's nothing that connects any of the linked articles besides (randomly) sharing two meaningless words their titles. It that way, it's similar in usefulness or informational relevance to List_of_works_with_the_word_"the"_in_the_title (or subtitle). Which wouldn't be useful or relevant at all. --Adamant1 (talk) 09:35, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You have said that the list may not aid navigation in a "meaningful way" - but that is for the users to decide. You have also stated that this may (extremely questionably) aid in navigation Etc. Etc. - I submit that is why we have the LISTN guideline - if the list aids navigation or provides information for any users it is useful and we should WP:PRESERVE it. We are WP:NOTPAPER so we have room for any item which may be useful to our readers. Lightburst (talk) 16:13, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Wait a second, aren't the you the one that said "The list certainly provides information and has some navigation usefulness" in your keep comment? So, it's cool for you to vote keep because you think it navigationally useful, but when I vote delete because I think it isn't, then suddenly it's up to the users to decide if it aids in navigation or not?..Right...I've seen some pretty transparently ridiculous and one sided arguments, but that one has to take the cake.--Adamant1 (talk) 05:45, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Are you always this aggressive in AfD discussions, Adamant1? The article (which somebody wrote, you know (namely me)) is "nonsensical" and "junk" according to you, and now other people's arguments are "transparently ridiculous". Have you noticed that most other people who give their opinion here do so quite politely? Please don't lower the tone. Bishonen | tålk 09:48, 14 October 2020 (UTC).[reply]
@Bishonen: I'm sorry your offended by my feedback that aspects of "your" article don't make sense and are meaningless. Maybe learn from it and create a better article next time. Although, probably you shouldn't if you can't even handle pretty milk toast comments like mine. --Adamant1 (talk) 10:38, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This is (at least) the second time an admin has asked you to tone down your snark in AfD discussions in less than a month. Responding to that with more snark is neither a good look nor productive. TompaDompa (talk) 11:13, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
(after edit conflict) @Bishonen: That response gives you a pretty good idea of the answer to your question, "Are you always this aggressive in AfD discussions?". Phil Bridger (talk) 11:15, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly, I probably would have acted more congenial about it. Except that the admin comment was in relation to a comment I made to Lightburst. Who has made multiple snarky, personal, and uncalled for comments toward me in the last couple of days. So has another user. I'm not going to be "polite" just for sake of it while other people are repeatedly disparaging me without so much as a peep about their behavior from anyone. Let alone an admin. There's plenty of examples of me acting perfectly civil in AfDs though and generally I'm pretty "polite." Except when other people aren't toward me. That aside, I'm not a huge fan of the whole "polite" way Bishonen framed their comment. There's plenty of people on here who "polite", but still act pretty wretchedly. A matter fact, I reported someone to the admin board like a month ago who made some pretty harsh comments about me and I was pretty roundly told by everyone that kind of thing is just par for the course of Wikipedia and that I should stop being so overly sensitive and just deal with it. So, sorry if I tend to disregard complaints about how I act and not take them seriously. Maybe I would if bad faithed acting people like Lightburst and others who constantly make everything personal were put in their place for it, or if I wasn't told by a bunch of people to stop being an over sensitive complainer and just suck it up when I complained about them. I'm sorry you guys can't handle it from me, when you expect everyone else just deal with it and it's dished out constantly by almost everyone. Really. Especially Lightburst. --Adamant1 (talk) 11:37, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Can't you take off the battle-dress for a bit? People who looked at the complaint that you made saw that it was without foundation, in that the complained-about editor had done nothing more than disagree with you, but you seem to think that any disagreement with you is a personal attack and that any personal attack that you make is just a disagreement. Just go on an anger-management course or something rather than carry on with this complete lack of self-awareness. As an example, you appear to have completely failed to notice that Bishonen said early in this discussion that she was happy for this to be deleted, but you seem to prefer a battleground to a civilised discussion. Phil Bridger (talk) 15:42, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
She was the one that took offense to me saying parts of the article didn't make sense instead of assuming good faith. So, if anything she was the one making this a battleground. Otherwise, feel free to show me anywhere in the guideline that says "nonsense" or "garbage" are derogatory, insulting words or whatever. Same goes for Lightburst and his worthless, none constructive comment calling out my vote when it was based on the same exact logic as his. How exactly was his comment constructive or AGF? I don't think every disagreement is a personal attack. There are specific people, including Lightburst, who repeatedly act in bad faith and attack me for no reason though and I do think people are personally attacking me when they are. He and ToughPigs were just doing it in another AfD and in an RfD. Other people even said they were, but sure, ignore that and make this all about me. I don't need anger management classes for being assertive with someone who was just attacking me in other places or because I'm a tad defensive with people who I've had longstanding issues with and who refuse to leave me alone. Thanks though. Your assertion that I do seems a lot like victim blaming to me. Especially since there's tons of discussions, not involve those specific people, where I get attacked and just leave it alone. Someone attacks me (or just disagrees with me) in almost every AfD I do or am involved in. Obviously I'm not arguing with people in 99% of the AfDs I'm involved with though. Obviously your suffering from self selection bias. BTW, something I've always found a bit ironic about the AGF guideline is that no one can invoke it without not AGF themselves. I think that same idea is applicable to here and your whole thing. Especially the part about me making this a battle ground. You should ask yourself who messaged who here and which "original" comments where constructive and which weren't. All I did was vote and say the article didn't make sense. That's it. I'm not the one making this a battle ground. Hell, look at the discussion below this one. There's disagreements and arguements everywhere. It's laughable to single me out. --Adamant1 (talk) 16:38, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, at the risk of also being BLUDGEONED, I found the list useful and informative, and possibly most important it includes items that don’t yet, or may ever earn, their own articles. We’re here to share knowledge and this does exactly that. I’ll look for more references as well. Gleeanon 12:54, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - No !vote here. Just a comment. I wonder if those turning out to keep this also show up if it had been created yesterday by some random redlinked newbie? For some, sure (this one has drawn some representatives of the always-keep, as well as the always-delete crowds), but some of the comments here have the feel of "it's old and fun, and it was written by a friend." We regularly jump on top of new editors for creating pages that aren't up to snuff, pulling them into this confusing, legalistic process, and people don't make the "it's delightful so IAR" sort of arguments on their behalf. So I don't know if I'm saying "let's not be so cabally" or "remember the newbies" ... maybe I'll just conclude by titling this comment "Noblesse oblige, or Virtue Rewarded". — Rhododendritestalk \\ 13:54, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
That's a remarkable amount of ABF crammed into one paragraph. As far as I can tell "...and it was written by a friend" applies only to me. If you can find one instance of me ever attacking a newbie for writing something remotely similar, point it out. If you can't, perhaps dial the smug superiority down about 3 notches. --Floquenbeam (talk) 15:20, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree with the characterization of "remarkable amount of ABF" and it wasn't directed only at you (if nothing else, your rationale was "per"ed many times). And I certainly didn't intend to imply that anyone here has attacked newbies. Nearly the opposite: that to the extent this IAR keep attitude is a positive thing, it would be nice to spread it around evenly to include newbies. That doesn't mean you're mean to newbies; it means I only see this kind of argument when the nomination statement happens to have appeared on a much-liked/much-watched userpage (perhaps a fairer way to frame it than "written by a friend"). It's a double-standard, but perhaps not one that can be helped, since it's not like we can expect anyone to participate in every AfD or watch every user page. I just have mixed feelings when an article that would have no chance if created by a new user is kept because it was created by a veteran (again, that's not an accusation of bad faith necessarily, but likely a natural consequence of who's watching the user page). — Rhododendritestalk \\ 16:34, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:ILIKEIT. No, it probably doesn't qualify by usual modern Wikipedia standards, and it certainly shouldn't be used as a precedent it's okay to create new spinoff articles for whatever bizarre subtitle tracking some editor wants to do. That said, it's harmless and quirky on its own and seems to be a rare case of "original research" producing something interesting, so keep as a small shrine to the Wikipedia of 2004 that was going to be an Internet-curated database of everything.

Merge to Speaking in tongues.

Merge. For the record, this is a real belief in the Catholic, Evangelical, and Anglican traditions. In some churches, it's a big deal; in most it's an embarrassment, like exorcism. To get "received" I had to suffer through a workshop that featured a deacon in my church confessing to having this ability. However, it's not something, based on available sourcese, that gains significant coverage. All that being said, I agree with the proposal by Johnpacklambert to merge this to Glossolalia.

While this is viewed as distinct from speaking in tongues, in many cases they are paired as two behaviors done at the same time. Even in cases like Oaks mentioned above, where he sees this as being used by the Holy Spirit to translate a normal language beyond the abilities of ones training, the discourse I am thinking of where he mentions a case of this he was involved in in Bulgaria, he also mentions cases of speaking in tongues as well, so it is not a source that presents this as an independent case, and many sources will only see this occurring in the context of speaking in tongues.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:13, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

None of the sources in the article give Mariam Saab significant, independant coverage as required in WP:GNG.

The Sydney Morning Herald, UNSW Press and mei.edu do not mention Saab (or mention her in a footnote), Youtube is not a reliable source and the MarieClaire article is not significant coverage.

Keep. No problems at all with how this evolved. Z1720's points are not sustainable (and spells 'independent' incorrectly). ABS and SBS produce non-commercial state journalism, and were used to illustrate contributions, as were the other sources, not 'to describe personal 'notability'. How would news presenters establish notability except by presenting well? Notability here is curating material well for a huge audience in a very high profile job. Anybody in Australia would agree. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Batterbu (talk • contribs) 10:38, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
According to WP:AfD, AfD discussions are to determine "whether an article is able to meet Wikipedia's article guidelines and policies", including WP:NOTABILITY. In the comment above it states the ABC and SBS sources are "to illustrate contributions...not 'to describe personal 'notability'." I agree that the sources do not describe notability, and since they were/are both employers of hers, I do not think we can use them for notability. Contributions, although important, cannot be used by themselves to decide if we keep an article. If it was, editors could argue "keep" for a painter by posting pictures of their work from a Google Image Search.
It was asked, perhaps rhetorically, "How would news presenters establish notability except by presenting well?" In WP:JOURNALISM there are four criteria that Wikipedia uses to establish notability for journalists. It is possible that Saab might pass one of those criteria, but we must be able to WP:VERIFY that the subject is notable using WP:RELIABLESOURCES. For example, a source could say she won a prestigious award, critiques her body of work, or profiles her life. Since sources have not been posted in this discussion that describe her notability, I have decided to continue advocating for a "delete" vote. Z1720 (talk) 22:37, 13 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I'm going to lean on the side of caution with this one and change my !vote to a keep. I think there are enough reliable sources that are not routine to meet the GNG criteria. Deus et lex (talk) 11:20, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Non-professional club, does not meet either WP:GNG or WP:FOOTYN. Would redirect to league, but no article for the league exists. Was deprodded with the rationale, "This is a football club playing in a prominent semi-professional league(Surulere Regional League) in Lagos Nigeria. I am in the process of creating an article for the league and that should be ready in a bit." If and when the article for the league is created, this could be redirected there. But again, clearly does not meet FOOTYN. Onel5969TT me 22:52, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
like I said before, this team plays in a recognized semi-pro league that have members who play in the National Cup in Nigeria. I am yet to finish editing the article for the league and that could be a major reason in deciding not to keep this article.

Comment they did play in the Round 32 of the Lagos FA Cup(the preliminary stages of the national cup) last season, I think that should count for something in determining notability. Felixdgreat (talk) 13:55, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Tough one to work out, all I can think of, were they fans of Star Wars with a team name of Star Base! Maybe it can be put into draft space, however, I don't see anything real towards basic GNG. Govvy (talk) 13:43, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify - if the claim that they have played in the prelim stages of the national cup is true, then there is potential notability here. I would suggest a move to draft space to allow editors time to prove the notability before moving it back to the main space. Spiderone 16:26, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I think seeing as they've played in the preliminary rounds of the main national cup competition, as mentioned above, then that's enough to confer notability. On a more general note, the coverage of Nigerian football on Wikipedia is pretty poor - it's a nation of well over 200 million people and football is the main national sport, yet Category:Football clubs in Nigeria only has 89 articles in it. I don't think deleting one of those articles (where there is any sort of claim to notability) is of any help in improving that coverage. — GasHeadSteve[TALK] 12:52, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - playing national cup, and with media coverage like this, the team is both notable (and meets FOOTYN) and meets GNG. It's very clear that football teams in Nigeria are massively underepresented here through WP:BIAS. I'm not sure why User:onel5969 isn't trying to fight systemic bias. Nfitz (talk) 21:47, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - If I'm not mistaken, the national tournament in Nigeria is the Nigeria Federation Cup, which is called the AITEO Cup. The source in this article is a primary source and claims they played in something called the Lagos FA cup in the 2017/18 season. However, as per this source, which was used on the page for the 2018 Nigeria Federation Cup, Starbase did not participate in the national cup tournament that year (nor in 2017 or 2019, I checked just in case). Perhaps the Lagos FA cup is something different? Regardless, as of this point, there is no independent sourcing showing that they did play in the national tournament.Onel5969TT me 23:20, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It's noted above that the Lagos FA cup is one the preliminary rounds for the national cup. We don't discount UK teams, all 644 of them last year that only played in the 2019–20 FA Cup qualifying rounds, and weren't one of the 124 made it to the First Round Proper of the 2019–20 FA Cup. That's an example of systemic bias. Nfitz (talk) 03:13, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The Surulere Regional League is a youth competition. Starbase should be deleted on that ground alone. The Lagos FA Cup is a separate competition that the finalists qualify for the AITEO Cup. Teams from Australia have been deleted even after playing in the FFA Cup so any accusations of bias are nonsense. Dougal18 (talk) 11:17, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It's not a "preliminary round", it's a separate tournament. A qualifying tournament. Therefore, you have to win it to qualify to enter the national tournament. Which this team clearly didn't, based on sourcing. Therefore it doesn't go to passing WP:FOOTYN.Onel5969

Comment the Lagos FA Cup is the preliminary round of the Federations Cup(Also known as Aiteo Cup for sponsorship reasons). All teams have to play the state qualifiers before they get to National level. Felixdgreat (talk)
Comment - No, it's a qualifying tournament to make the national tournament. Separate tournaments are not "rounds". Onel5969TT me 16:53, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment In 2019, Box 2 Box FC, A team that plays in the Surulere League as Star Base defeated MFM F.C. to progress to the Federation Cup(Aiteo Cup) where they were later eliminated. You have to understand that football is very much different in Nigeria from other European countries. I don't know how a preliminary tournament that qualifies you for the national cup is classed as irrelevant. Felixdgreat (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:04, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
CommentFelixdgreat, What are you talking about? Star Base never played in the Aiteo Cup, per the sources about the Aiteo Cup. As it says in 2019–20 FA Cup qualifying rounds, "32 winners from the Fourth Round Qualifying advance to the First Round Proper". This clearly indicates that all prior rounds were qualifying rounds, and therefore mean that this team doesn't meet FOOTYN.Onel5969TT me 18:02, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NMUSICIAN / WP:GNG. Does not appear to satisfy the "multiple, non-trivial" part of "multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself." from NMUSIC / GNG. While he did join Evergrey, taking the content at face-value it appears no works were released while he was a member and does not appear he was a "reasonably prominent" member of the group, thus failing NMUSICIAN #6 ("musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles").TheSandDoctorTalk 04:14, 12 October 2020 (UTC); expanded 18:19, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Damn! You nominated a lot of pages relating to Swedish music. Reminds me of that time when a lot of articles related to Greek music / culture were nominated (although not by you). Anyways, they do not fail WP:BAND. There are reliable sources: Metal Storm (with staff written album reviews included), Blabbermouth, Allmusic biography, Concert Review at Brave Words for instance. So they meet WP:BAND. Their albums are released on important labels - AFM Records and InsideOut Music. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 11:19, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per last (unsigned) comment. TheSandDoctor nominated lots of articles on Swedish/Finnish metal musicians/bands, in really short periods of time, with really short rationales and no evidence he even did a basic Google search. Even if the sourcing isn't great (which is a huge problem, I know), these musicians satisfy at least one part of notability: being part of multiple notable bands. He also seems to have gotten something against Evergrey since he nominated their members and the band themselves for deletion. But the Evergrey article was quickly kept because the nomination was nonsense. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 17:31, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@GhostDestroyer100: I have nothing against the group and hadn't even heard of them until last night. A WP:BEFORE search was indeed done, which found very little in the way of sourcing to satisfy WP:GNG's "multiple, non-trivial" coverage in independent reliable sources requirement for the individual members or the albums. I am, however, willing to admit that in hindsight the nomination of the band's article itself was incorrect. Sourcing is everything and per WP:BLP if it isn't sourced it has to be removed. Withdrawing this nomination. --TheSandDoctorTalk 18:06, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lack of coverage found in a WP:BEFORE search appears to indicate that Mathias fails WP:GNG and by extension, WP:NMUSICIAN. In order to even be considered potentially notable under NMUSICIAN, at least one of twelve criteria must be met.
"subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself" - BEFORE check appears to indicate a lack of non-trivial coverage in multiple different reliable publications/sources. As a comment on current sourcing present within the article (though I did look wider), the AllMusic biography is of Falconer (band) and mentions him a total of 4 times. This is hardly what a reasonable person would consider in-depth/non-trivial and evidence of independent notability.
"Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart." -- based off of the album articles linked within Mathias Blad, it appears that none charted or were otherwise notable.
"Has had a record certified gold or higher in at least one country." -- as a logical consequence of #2, this is not met.
"Has received non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources of an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country" -- not satisfied per #1
"Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable)." -- potentially his one lifeline, but insufficent sourcing to write an article about him per WP:NRV and WP:NOTINHERETED. The best recommendation here would be to redirect.
"...or is a musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles." -- primarily known for Falconer (band) per article
"Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability." --no evidence of this
"Has won or been nominated for a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno, Mercury, Choice or Grammis award." -- not mentioned in the article or in available sourcing that I have found
"Has won first, second or third place in a major music competition." -- no competitions are mentioned within the article
"Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g., a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a notable compilation album, etc." -- not mentioned
"Has been placed in rotation nationally by a major radio or music television network." -- no evidence of this
"Has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or television network." -- no evidence of this

Delete Wikipedia is not meant to be a mirror of IMDb. With minor actors IMDb often merges multiple actors into one listing, it is not a reliable source at all, and so if we have no other we should not have an article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:44, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. If those sources constitute in-depth coverage I'll eat my hat. World News Network is a news aggregator, not a producer of content. The page presented aggregates an interview by the subject (interviews are primary sources that don't back up notability claims; it's also an interview by the producer of the film he was making at that time which doubles down on it not being independent) as well as the Wikipedia article about Famiglietti. It is offensive to the intelligence of anyone reading this discussion that Dream Focus would try to pass that off as an in-depth reliable source. TVGuide is a listing of credits, not in-depth coverage. The CTPost interview linked by Lightburst is the exact same text as the Associated Press link that Dream Focus posted, so it's one source, and it's an interview, which again, gives little credibility to a claim of notability. Finally, Lightburst knows very well that simply writing a book doesn't make one notable, so it amazes me that that's being held up as an indicator of notability. What a load of rubbish. And oh, quelle surprise - it was posted at WP:ARS. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 20:48, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea why you would bring up DUIs or domestic violence as the only possible ways an actor might make the news or otherwise obtain coverage. Some actors obtain media coverage by virtue of the quality of their performances. Unfortunately Mr. Famiglietti does not appear to have been one of those actors. The Basic Criteria under WP:NBIO is this: "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." No one at this AfD has provided any indication that Mr. Famiglietti has been the subject of such coverage. SNGs tell us who is likely to meet the basic criteria, but do not rubber-stamp a notability claim in the absence of reliable sources: "meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included." It's obvious that in the absence of any in-depth reliable sources, there is no policy-based reason to retain this article. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 22:07, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
We will have to disagree. See WP:NA topic is presumed to merit an article if: it meets either the general notability guideline below, or the criteria outlined in a subject-specific guideline listed in the box on the right; and It is not excluded under the What Wikipedia is not policy. I am not sure how we could read this any other way. He passes the subject-specific guideline. Unless you can show he does not? Lightburst (talk) 22:15, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:NBIO, as I have already quoted from the section that describes the SNGs: "Meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included." It's that simple. An SNG is not a guarantee of inclusion when sources do not exist. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 22:18, 11 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This one gets a bit technical, but it's a locale (geography), which is defined as not community, so it doesn't pass WP:GEOLAND or WP:GEOFEAT without passing WP:GNG. Rennick's index calls it a locale, and his county history mentions a Turner, but no Turner Landing. Both the 1931 Cairo, Illinois topographic map and the 1967 Olmsted, Illinois topo have Turner Landing marked in a different, smaller font than is given to the maps' communities of Oscar, Kentucky and Olmsted, Illinois. The font is that given to schools, river landings, and other type things. So since it fails WP:GEOLAND and WP:GEOFEAT, WP:GNG must be met. This is nonsubstantial coverage listing it in a series of points along the Ohio River, along with some lighthouses and shipwrecks. This is just a brief statement that a road was built to Turner's Landing. Someone had a bunch of railroad ties there. There was a road from Turner Landing to nearby Gage, Kentucky. I've found another couple hits, likewise using it as a landmark, but none of this is significant coverage of the place, just name drops. As a locale, it fails the geography SNGs, and GNG-bearing coverage is not forthcoming. Hog FarmBacon 19:43, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for the reasons and findings discussed and cited above. In addition, Palmer-Ball and Barron (1986) mentions a "Turner's Landing" in the Ballard County Wildlife Management Area. and the map of the Ballard County Wildlife Management Area shows a "Turner's Landing Road" in it.The above discussion and context of the occurences of "Turner's Landing" makes me think that Turner Landing is a corruption of "Turner's Landing" that likely once was an insignificant, historic steamboat stop that has been largely forgotten. Maybe it could be located using historic navigation charts of the Ohio River.
Finally, the Ballard County Chamber of Commerce web page states "Our other communities are ... Needmore, Turner Landing, Winford, ... and New York." as if there is a current community by that name. If it was not original research, I would be tempted email them and ask them does it really exist and where exactly is it located.
@Paul H.: In Wikipedia, "original research" refers to you publishing in mainspace something not published by someone else first. It does not forbid the pursuit of further information. Normal Op (talk) 02:49, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think we'll need a little more than that claim to establish it as a community, even if Ballard County calls it one in that place, as the weight of the evidence still suggests a steamboat landing that doesn't quite meet GNG. There was definitely something here in the past, but it doesn't seem to rise to the bar of enwiki notability. Hog FarmBacon 03:04, 5 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, in addition to his senate run, he also received coverage for his discharge from the navy for smoking marijuana, as can be seen in this New York Times article from 1977: [69] This clearly assuages any BLP1E concerns and causes him to pass WP:GNG effortlessly, and if I could find this with a 30 second search, than it is just WP:COMMONSENSE that there is far more out there.

Delete Not notable because of familial ties (WP:INVALIDBIO). Not notable because of unsuccessful Senatorial candidacy (WP:NPOL). A basic WP:BEFORE (hampered as it is by other people sharing the same name) turns up nothing I would characterize as substantial depth of coverage as mandated by WP:BASIC – instead, what I find is coverage of his run for Senate (i.e. the 2006 United States Senate election in Nevada), a bunch of passing mentions in articles about his father, and the above-mentioned coverage for being discharged from the Navy for smoking cannabis (the idea that this article, which was written 7 years after the fact when his father faced more scrutiny from the media and which goes into basically no depth at all, counts as substantial depth of coverage is absurd to me). I don't think the combined coverage from these sources adds up to substantial depth of coverage of the person, so I don't find any indication that he passes WP:NBIO. If we are to redirect this anywhere, I suggest 2006 United States Senate election in Nevada as the target. TompaDompa (talk) 21:21, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, He failed in the elections so he fails notability. Alex-h (talk) 11:16, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I think we're jumping to conclusions on his notability because of the hereditary element and the losing political campaign element, which aren't enough on their own, but there's plenty of WP:GNG-qualifying national coverage from the campaign, which wouldn't be enough on its own, but also other sources, including an endorsement he made for Barack Obama. As someone not quite as famous as his father, he's always going to be "the son," but he has been written about enough by secondary sources to be eligible for an article.

Completely unsourced list of films shot at a particular venue in a midsized suburban city. Most of the films appearing in the list don't have any sources to indicate that they were filmed at this location in their own articles either — I admittedly didn't comprehensively check every entry in the list, but not a single one of the entries I did spotcheck even mentioned this venue at all — and the list is also straying from its own stated premise to list television programming, including scripted series, non-fiction shows and even Christmas specials. Although the venue does have historic status, it's not so internationally prominent that a list of stuff purportedly but not verifiably filmed there would be critically important content for Wikipedia to maintain without proper sources for it. Bearcat (talk) 19:41, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or Merge to Parkwood_Estate#Filming. Fine spinout article if too big in the main one, but shove it on over there. I'll see about finding references. DreamFocus 00:45, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Referencing something like this to the venue's own self-published website about itself does not make it properly referenced, or even noteworthy per se — to make this a notable list that we should maintain, we require the filming to be referenced to media coverage about the productions, independent of Parkwood's own self-published web presence. Bearcat (talk) 22:29, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Valid information for the main article, so if its too large it can be spun out to a side article. Just like when an actor's filmography gets too large to fit, they put it in a side article. As for coverage https://www.looper.com/249594/why-the-mansion-in-the-boys-looks-so-familiar/ and elsewhere. Just Google for "filmed" "Parkwood Estate" -wikipedia to find more. I added references to some more sources in the article itself. DreamFocus 23:42, 25 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
And furthermore, we literally have articles like this for just two other buildings on the entire planet — and those two are the vastly more important Versailles and the British Museum. One of these could theoretically be compiled for practically every named building on earth, literally swamping Wikipedia with hundreds of thousands of these — so what makes Parkwood Estate so very special that it needs this when thousands upon thousands of much more important buildings don't and shouldn't have similar lists? Bearcat (talk) 13:06, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No reason why others couldn't exist, as long as the list is too long to fit in the main article. Category:Films shot in the United States by city You could make list of films by city filmed in even. The fact other things don't exist yet, has nothing to do with whether this one should exist. DreamFocus 16:11, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"Films shot in city" is not the same thing, and not subject to the same considerations, as "films shot in one specific building". And yes, there is a reason why others couldn't and shouldn't exist: because there are literally millions, possibly even billions, of buildings on earth for which such a list could potentially be compiled, and there's no value in indiscriminately keeping millions of these just because they're technically possible. To keep something like this, we need a reason why the content would be valuable to maintain, not just an argument that there's nothing that would technically prevent it. Bearcat (talk) 15:13, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. A mention of films in the parent article might be relevant, but being the location of filming is not a threshold above WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:NOTDIRECTORY, as you could make an list out of virtually any old location along these lines. In a cursory search I have not found anything beyond trivial mentions that talk specifically about Parkwood in relation to its use as a filming location that would be relevant to suggest it's actually a notable topic and not just a random list.

He's actually a feature film director/producer, not just short films. Has made several, widely released recognizable projects. User18889 (talk) 16:47, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
That is true but the two films he directed made didn't really make it. They aren't well known, or well reviewed, with little attendant coverage. scope_creepTalk
I don't fully disagree in terms of the films not being exceptionally and widely recognized movies, although in the scope of independent films they've received notable distribution and recognition, and at least the last film "The Maestro" had theatrical distribution which is more than 90% of independent films can say. I feel the director has enough notability, especially in the independent film world, to warrant inclusion. User18889 (talk) 07:08, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
That may be the case, but that is only film and that's not sufficient for a BLP. It needs in-depth, independent, reliable, secondary sources for a BLP. I'm looking for somebody come up with two or three good references that show he is notable. At the moment the references in the article are not sufficient. I found one reference in the Hollywood Report but that is about that.
There's multiple references in many of the articles both on the film pages as well as his page that mention him, beyond the Hollywood Reporter, including the Los Angeles Times and Voyage LA as well as multiple others. He's notable in the independent film and literature world, which should still qualify. User18889 (talk) 16:23, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Goodreads. Same as above.
Profile page. No independent.
Devilworks. Passing mention. Not in-depth.
Rotten Tomatoes. Passing mention and fails WP:NOT. Non-RS.
LA Times. Article on Xander Berkeley. Passing mention. Non-RS.
DTLA film maker awards. Adam Cushman was awarded Best Director for Restraint. Really a passing mention. Minor award. Not in-depth, secondary, or independent.
Restraint. Cast list. Non-RS.
Special events. Directed by. passing mention.Non-RS.
BSFF. Don't see him.
AFMX. Doesn't seem to be him here either.

Don't agree that the sources are unreliable. LA Times, Rotten Tomatoes and the awards pages and announcements are absolutely reliable. Goodreads isn't promotion, it's verification of the work. Awards announcements are as such as well; verification. BSFF shows award laurel for film (The Maestro) if you check again, as it's being referenced in the article. BSFF also mentions The Maestro, if you scroll down to 2018 winners, again as it's referencing in the article. DTLA film maker awards is an announcement, not a passing mention, as is how they're typically done.

Delete The person clearly fails WP:NACTOR due to not having multiple in-depth reliable secondary sources about them. The three sources in the article after it was supposedly "restored to a notable state" are a basic biographical listing, an article that seems to be written by the actor himself about his life, and one about him endorsing a stroke awareness campaign. Which has absolutely nothing to do with him aside content wise. There doesn't seem to be anything else out there that would pass WP:NACTOR or WP:GNG either.

Not convinced this one passes WP:GEOLAND. The State Historical Society calls it a small trading point, but Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tingley, Missouri is a precedent that that's not enough for a GEOLAND pass. The topos I can turn up nvever show more than two or three buildings at the site. My WP:LIBRARY application for newspapers.com access is still pending, so I'm having to go by Google books, which is only brining up bare namedrops, e.i. somebody had a Neola address, or somebody died in the vicinity. Such namedrops do not prove that WP:GEOLAND is met, and WP:GNG looks like a failure, as well. Hog FarmBacon 02:23, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. A trading point is more than an empty building or a name on a map. It's a place which at least for some period in history was an actual, tho possibly small, community-in this case consisting also of a church, and dwellings. A place which has those basic elements is (or in this case, was)., an actual community: a meeting place, a trading place., and a place where people lived. Even without the church I would support it--such trading posts are of historical importance. (And if we reject Tingley, we need to revisit it. WP does not run by precedent, but corrects errors) DGG ( talk ) 05:42, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@DGG: Read WP:GEOLAND. These need legal recognition for notability, which this one lacks. Hog FarmBacon 10:46, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The way we interpret GEOLAND is by discussing individual articles at afd. Reading it, I see that "On the other hand, sources that describe the subject instead of simply mentioning it do establish notability. "
We are normally on all subjects much more flexible in accepting weak articles on historically existing or historically relevant topics. Doing a wider interpretation in such cases is within our discretion. Guidelines are called guidelines because they describe what we usually do. The consensus here will either agree that this should be an exception, or not. DGG ( talk ) 15:23, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

comment I have a certain ambivalence about these "trading point" entries, but in this case you can see the "trading point" for yourself in Street View. It's a quite small white building at a crossroads, with a modern ranch house behind, and that is it. Talking about a "community" strikes me as euphemistic: what we have testimony for is that there was a country store where the USPS found it desirable maintain an office well into the RFD era. Nobody had the nerve to call it a town or village or hamlet, and if it ever had a population it would appear to have consisted of no one beyond, maybe, the storekeeper and his immediate family. The notion of it being a "community" seems to me to be unprovable one way or the other; the word is really be used as a substitute for "town" or the like, and and unless one is willing to accept the notion of a "one store town" with no other buildings, I'm really not seeing how the current content of the article can be justified. And if you are willing to tell the bald truth ("Neola, Missouri was a place where there used to be a store with a post office in it") I think you would be much harder pressed to justify its notability.

After some consideration, I'm going to have to go with delete. The evidence is particularly strong that, as I said above, this was nothing more than an isolated store that was a convenient place to put a post office in a rural area. This was not a town/village/hamlet; at best it could be elevated to a locale. Maybe. Mangoe (talk) 13:28, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think this place meets WP:GEOLAND. The State Historical Society calls it a "small trading point", an old local history [77] calls it a "post village" and a flag station on the Frisco railroad. Topos never show more than five buildings here. GNIS gives it a census code of U6, which means it is not incorporated and probably means it doesn't pass the legally recognized community portion of WP:GEOLAND.

Keep. A trading point is more than an empty building or a name on a map. It's a place which at least for some period in history was an actual, tho possibly small, community-in this case consisting also of a church, and dwellings. A place which has those basic elements is (or in this case, was)., an actual community: , a trading place., and a place where people lived. such trading posts are of historical importance.

Was prodded with reason "Fails WP:NPROF, WP:NATH and WP:GNG. No sourcing to suggest otherwise. Best source is a diverse article, but isn't enough on its own.". I deprodded because it didn't seem like a perfectly clear delete decision. The guy has a combination of WP:AUTHOR and WP:PROF, although he does not meet either. Could also argue that he is "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded" (WP:BIO), but as far as one can tell, he could have lied all this time that he was once a thug just to achieve more attention.

Hi Unmaskytp. It is considered extremely rude to blank someone else's vote, so please refrain from doing that. I'm assuming you made it by mistake, for not being familiarized with the deletion proposal process. If you want the article to be kept, I suggest that you write keep in the beginning of your vote, in the same fashion as Johnpacklambert's vote. Also, your vote will have more strength if you base your arguments on the WP:Notability guidelines.

Weak delete. I don't see any sign of WP:NPROF, and I didn't find reviews for WP:NAUTHOR. There's a possible GNG case, but it is not so strong: he has some local coverage in the Knoxville News Sentinel and on U Tennessee radio (the independence of the latter is questionable), and somewhat broader scoped coverage on diverseeducation.com. Meanwhile, the article is promotional enough that WP:TNT appears to apply. Comment that the user's webpage is unmaskytp.com, which suggests rather strongly that Unmaskytp is either the subject or else engaged in undisclosed paid editing; the username appears to be in violation of WP:ORGNAME.

@Celestina007: What sources do you look at the articles of other Iranian musicians? This is how it is. Music in Iran is hard to cover. What do you do if you look at articles like Iman Ebrahimi, Tanbe10 and Mahdyar Aghajani In Iran, independent artists work hard in any genre, and their sources of coverage have been Facebook and blogs from the beginning. It is obvious in any style, except for those who are in the classical style and connected to the government Well, that's why composers and musicians should have no place here.

Due to restrictions in Iran, it is not possible to broadcast interviews with foreign media. Not everyone who writes about collaborating with other singers means that it is a two-person work, meaning that the composer has performed a piece that the singer has performed. That is, Ali Hosseinzadeh was the owner of the work. Because of the mafia in Iranian music, nothing is transparent. The result is being judged unfairly. He has been since 2003. It is working so it is abnormal that anyone who does not have the standard required to work can survive to this day, In Iran, most people do not know composers unless they follow bad policies. They are only pursuing Singers. We are trying to defend these artists. Please help us and reconsider your comment if possible - Thanks Lila". The email name did not match the person's closing.

Johnstone was a darts player who never achieved any great success.

Keep - Passes WP:SPORTSCRIT by competing in a major international competition (the BDO World Professional Darts Championships) five times. Richard North's article was kept after only competing in one PDC World Championships. Dougal18 (talk) 11:22, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
CommentWP:SPORTSCRIT mentions an assumption of notability if the person has participated in a major international amateur or professional competition at the highest level (such as the Olympics). While the BDO World Professional Darts Championship may be the pinnacle of darts competition, I don't think it rises to the level of the Olympics. The use of a guidepost like the Olympics exists because there is an assumption that Olympic athletes will have been covered by some independent media. It's not clear that darts enjoys the same media attention, so even competitors who reach (but do not win) the international championships do not attract sufficient media attention to make them notable. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 12:01, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I don't think merely competing at a world darts championship is sufficient to show automatic notability. I noticed that the Darts database shows career earnings of less than 20,000 pounds which seems to indicate the minor sports nature of darts. The important thing is that meeting WP:NSPORT would still only give a presumption of notability, not a guarantee. My search found no evidence that he meets WP:GNG and the article doesn't have a single source supporting a claim of significant coverage. Being an unused sub in a soccer game does not meet any notability criteria. Papaursa (talk) 21:34, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

CommentWP:POLOUTCOMES says political figures not elected to public office are sometimes considered notable if they are the leaders of registered national parties. Khelafat Majlish is such a party. It is led by an ameer and a general secretary. So he is potentially notable for being joint general secretary, despite the party's lack of electoral success - if this is one of those "sometimes". --Worldbruce (talk) 05:30, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge (after removing content that is not reliably sourced) to political party Khelafat Majlish (to the extent that the merged content is not WP:UNDUE). My assessment is that 6 of the 19 cited sources are of dubious reliability (dailysomoyersomikoron.com, probashirdiganta.com, Rtmnews24.com, Insiderion.com, Fact Sider, and Famous Born). That could be fixed by editing. One cited source is a wing of the party he leads, and two are press releases from the party [Bangla Tribune (1 of 2) and The Daily Sangram], so not independent. That leaves six independent, reliable sources that are not "fan sites" of his party: the Daily Inqilab, Daily Naya Diganta (2), Somoyer Konthosor, Bangla Tribune (2 of 2), and Kaler Kantho. Their depth of content about him is shallow, however. It is not WP:SIGCOV, it does not address his life directly and in detail. Searches of the usual types found nothing better. So he is not notable and does not merit a stand alone article. Merge, however, is a reasonable alternative to deletion. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:43, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I hope my username is not tagged as canvassed. I've rightly said that in my comment that I only came to this AfD because I received a message on my talk page from the creator of the article. Best. ─ The Aafī (talk) 21:21, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Previous Afd, WP:BADNAC. Non-notable. Run of the mill business news, routine announcements, passing mentions and so on. Fails WP:SIRS, WP:NCORP. scope_creepTalk 00:03, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Pinging @JanaFisher:, who has written most of the page, to see if they have any additional information/sourcing to provide. Barring that, I go with Delete per nom. WhinyTheYounger (talk) 01:35, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for pinging me @WhinyTheYounger:. I have added updates including a Forbes article about the company to further make the case for WP:NCORP. JanaFisher (talk) 02:29, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I have reverted that addition of the Forbes reference. It is deprecated. More so, it is contributor, meaning it is not even Forbes staff. Its not a reliable source. scope_creepTalk 08:45, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Agree with scope creep, the Forbes article is by a Forbes contributor and is not independent. Sources are interviews with founders, routine announcements, article lacks in-depth significant coverage.--Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 14:25, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
