A rare disclosed paid editor created this article in 2016. A lot of promotional material was lopped off nearly immediately, and unfortunately what is left does not demonstrate notability. Most of it is about the columns written by one of the company's officials—whose name isn't mentioned in the article body, and in which case the articles do not even mention Mediassociates itself. There's nothing here beyond coatracking about the state of programmatic advertising, the Businessweek columns, and non-notable awards. I struggle to see this meeting WP:CORP.

This article seems to confuse two lawyers named Samuel S. Freedman — the lawyer who assisted Thurgood Marshall as depicted in Marshall and a person who lived between 1927 and 2012. With the first Freedman, I've only found articles detailing his role in the case depicted in Marshall. With the second, I've found only the obituary used as the source of the article. I don't believe either meet Wikipedia's standards for notability. Jedzz (talk) 21:29, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

GNIS is sourced to a 1919 (non-topo) map called the New World War Chart, although it's not mentioned by the rather comprehensive state historical society source. Pre-GNIS topos do not show a Hilda, although the coordinates are near Mount Hulda, Missouri. 1969 county history makes no mention of a Hilda. Newer topos show Hilda, but not Mount Hulda. Since the SHS society states that Mount Hulda was formerly known as Hulda, it looks like what probably happened is that the 1919 map made an error and it was then copied into GNIS. Within the last 20 years, the topos were just made with the town names copied from GNIS. So essentially, one 1919 map and GNIS are the only things stating that a Hilda in Benton County ever existed. Given that nobody besides GNIS and the many bot-generated websites trawling GNIS state that Hilda ever existed, I don't think a merge or redirect to Mount Hulda is worth it. Clear GNIS screwup.

Seems to be some sort of lakeside resort, not a town [17]. In the article are GNIS, which does a poor job of classifying what type of entity a name represents, a highway map, which seems to show a bunch of RV parks and stuff, and a source that is referring to a creek, not a town. Mostly only finding passing mentions of a Blue Branch Road, which goes through a lakeside RV park-type thing. In no way passes WP:GNG, and I'm finding no evidence this was a legally recognized community, which would pass WP:GEOLAND. Possibly part of White Branch, Missouri or Warsaw, Missouri.

- Delete due to being to generic of a term and not having any products that based on it. Except for maybe Bluetooth as a general implementation of "electronic leash" like technology with some of the things it's used for, but that aside this is to vague of a concept, Wikipedia isn't a dictionary, and the article is way to original research heavy anyway. To the point where if you got rid of it all the article would be is a basic definition of the term and sentence about there not being any products that use it. Which totally isn't worth an article. It's not even worth merging. Otherwise, what are you going to do, merge "for the generic term of electronic leash no US trade mark[2] nor UK trade mark[3] is valid or otherwise pending for this generic term of product" into some random place in the Bluetooth article? Because that's the only thing that's referenced. Not likely. --Adamant1 (talk) 05:09, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Reply: here's my thinking
- The noms and winners are listed in the lists for the individual years. There are sources that discuss the awards each year along with the nominees and winners.
- The winners are listed under Animated Film in ADG Excellence in Production Design Award. There are sources that discuss this particular award category.
- So the information is already in one or two lists. So there is nothing to merge to those spots. The nominees could be duplicated in ADG Excellence in Production Design Award, but I think that would reduce the quality of that list and the information already exists by year. The years in this article could be linked to the award by year articles.
- I can't find WP:RS that are independent that discuss the individual award categories within the ADG Excellence in Production Design Award directly and in-depth. It is mentioned in relation to the award.
- I only other option would be to merge (along with the others) into Art Directors Guild, but I think that's too detailed.

- Keep - At a glance, it looks like there's some duplication between the main award page, which lists winners, the yearly awards pages, and the award-specific pages. The award-specific pages aren't the problem, though. The redundant bit is that the main award page shouldn't have a comprehensive list of winners. Think about what readers are most likely looking for: a specific award or a specific year. If any statistics, the main award page should be used for, say, awards over time (who has won the most, etc.). — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:48, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Neither (as article creator): I never particularly liked this song, so have no real desire to expand it myself. But from a cursory search of Google News, here's an entire paragraph of Stuart Murdoch of Belle and Sebastian talking about the song, and I'm sure enough of these Swedish reviews could be utilized to make at least a Start-class article. And I don't think Colonia (A Camp album) is worthy of an AfD.

This film was tagged for notability in February. It has 3 citations listed, but none are linked to view online. I trust that they are legitimate, especially since the film is 110 years old and tough to verify. However, I've been down this road before...if I remove the notability tag, the editor (or another editor) will just put it back. Notability tags shouldn't last forever...in my opinion they shouldn't be used at all, if you don't think an article is notable just put it up for deletion and that will solve it...but I digress.
So, instead of going through that "edit war" of removing/adding the tag again, I figured I would put it up for deletion and see if others agree that the film is notable (and the tag should go) or if it isn't notable (and the article should go.)

- Comment and provisional keep. This looks like a rehash of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Fisherman's Granddaughter. Source publications are identical; director of the film is the same; I assume the same person wrote both articles. I don't have time to find URLs for the sources listed here, but I would be very surprised if they weren't precise analogues of the reviews for that article: short, but definitely SIGCOV, in multiple, well-known publications of the time. So I'm saying "provisional keep" because I haven't yet tracked down the sources, but I'm positive they're genuine. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 16:05, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

They have searchable issues of all the old film magazines, including Variety, Motion Picture World, The Film Daily, Motion Picture Herald, Moving Picture World, etc. You can source reviews for pretty much any American movie made in the first half of the twentieth century, including short subjects. — Toughpigs (talk) 18:09, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep and thank you to ToughPigs. The inability of editors to click on a citation and view it is not grounds for an article's deletion. I would understand if it just said "Variety" and "Motion Picture World," but these were good citations and the nominator could have asked someone -- other editors, librarians -- for help researching. If the nominator isn't comfortable removing the tag, then they should move on to other articles rather than ignore their gut instinct that the film is notable.

- I think you're confusing "Independent" to only concern itself with the independence of the publisher from the topic company. That's probably the most easily passed test. The real test for "Independent" relates to "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject.

At present, the article is supported by various links to the magazine's website (not independent), a soft soap WP:INTERVIEW with the magazine's founder in the NYT (primary), and a passing one-word mention in Pitchfork (insubstantial). I have looked for better sourcing, but found nothing but passing mentions and affiliated sources. I can't see how this passes WP:GNG, or WP:NCORP which would probably apply since it's a commercial product; there's also WP:NMAGAZINE, which is only an essay, but I can't see this passing that either based on what I can find.

AleatoryPonderings (talk) 15:28, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Yeah, at first I thought the interview would be a good source, but as you say it's not really focussed on the magazine, and almost all of the content about the magazine is coming directly out of the mouth of its founder, meaning that it's a primary source for our purposes.

- Delete The magazine is cited in104 articles. That does not establish that the magazine is notable, but perhaps suggests that an article on this subject might be useful. In reviewing for NPP, I have always found citations to CM slightly suspicious, due to their lack of criticality and analysis. This is not a publication that has significant influence in the art world like, for example, Artforum or Art in America. For a clue: look at who's advertising there. Vexations (talk) 19:11, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Hi Vexations, I agree totally that Cultured is not a publication like Artforum or Art in America that wields significant critical influence on the art world, but would argue that neither the magazine itself nor this page make that claim. In the pages, infobox the publication's category is listed as "culture." The two quotations from Forbes Magazine and the New York Post's Page Six that describe Cultured both foreground the outfit's multidisciplinary orientation. In response to your comment, I have also rephrased the first sentence in the page's lead and the sentence that introduces the list of the magazine's past cover stars to hopefully clarify and emphasize the publication's broad interest in and understanding of culture. While the magazine is obviously no Artforum, or October for that matter, and seems to strive far more to be accessible than it does to be academic, it appears to me at least in the same league as publications like Garage Magazine, Another Magazine, Dazed Magazine, Love Magazine, and Surface Magazine, many of which have included all of the same individuals on their own covers. Also, I looked quite extensively for where I could find a list of Cultured's advertisers to no avail, and was wondering if it wasn't too much trouble if you could possibly forward where you tracked that info down to as I would love conduct a similar comparison, but look instead to more analogous publications that are aiming to cultivate a parallel image and position to Cultured, like those I mentioned above. Homogestalt (talk) 20:15, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Homogestalt, I think the point I was trying to make is that sometimes, even tough sources are scarce, a subject can be notable because it has significant impact on its field that is evidenced by our use as a source. I don't see that being the case for Cultured. So it all comes down to lack of significant coverage in independent, reliable sources. The advertisers mostly just illustrative of the fact the Cultured is not an influential art magazine. Compare textezurkunst.com, who today advertise apexart, art cologne, and gegenwarten (clearly serious) to cultured.com, who advertise B&B Italia (nice furniture, I used to own one, but not quite the same category). Advertisers are mentioned in [20] by Former Contributor to Forbes, Patrick Hanlon: "Her publication Cultured, for example, has 24 spreads of advertising from brands including Cartier, Versace, Loro Piana, Luminaire as well as local furniture designers, retail shops and real estate, before we even get to the editorial masthead. The back cover is a Gucci ad." Please note that we consider Forbes contributors generally unreliable, per WP:FORBESCON. Vexations (talk) 19:35, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect or merge I can see how this is redundant with the Doctor Strange article with not much to cover outside of various plot summaries and excerpts. But there has been a consistent practice to merge comic characters with similar non-notable spinouts. See the AFDs for: Gambit, Storm, Jean Grey, Venom, The Thing, and Rogue, all of which were merged or redirected. Daredevil was deleted, but that's an outlier. I'm sure I missed a few others. I think we should always strive to WP:PRESERVE and use alternatives to deletion. (Pardon the copy-paste rationale, which I used at a similar AFD for Deadpool, but the rationale is truly about consistent best practice across many similar articles). Archrogue (talk) 21:10, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @Archrogue: This has been brought up already at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alternative versions of Mary Jane Watson and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alternative versions of Kitty Pryde, but saying "several others were deleted" on every nomination is very poor reasoning. At least a few of these (including Alternative versions of Batman and arguably Alternative versions of Deadpool) actually have passed both WP:GNG and WP:LISTN, but were deleted purely on poorly handled nominations and bandwagon voting such as this. If there is a precedent here, it's a weak one. Darkknight2149 07:34, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment above amounts to "spoiled grapes". They didn't like the consensus on previous discussions, and they're trying to use those failed arguments to impact this discussion. The consensus on the other discussions was clear. These OR/SYNTH articles are not appropriate for an article. // Timothy :: talk 07:45, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Not spoiled grapes at all. The fact that your only responses have been "But I got them deleted! IT WORKED!" proves my point. I'm sorry if you dislike WP:LISTN or WP:GNG, but all of my concerns have been rooted both in policy, procedure, and that many of the votes have been as slim/cookie-cutter as the nominations themselves, usually from the same exact users, citing the same reasons that often boil down to WP:ITSCRUFT or WP:PERNOM.
- This isn't everyone, mind you. There have been a lot of good faith users who have been voting "delete" on a lot of stuff (including stuff that should be deleted), but when at least 3-4 one-note deletionists and occasionally 1-2 one-note inclusionists are guaranteed to show up on every nomination, that isn't exactly helpful.
- There have also been a tonne of nominations in the last year-and-a-half that haven't cited a valid rationale at all. For example, filing 500 nominations because "The article fails to establish notablity" or "The article is poorly written" flies in the face of both WP:DELREASON and every deletion policy/guideline on the books.
- Also, don't list off policies and guidelines unless you know what they mean. Your nominations have had nothing to do with original research (making stuff up) or synthesis (claiming that two sources combine to say something they don't), they have to do with articles that primarily cite primary sources. Still bad, but hardly the same thing. Darkknight2149 08:45, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete- excessive minutiae about various incarnations of a fictional character. All the sources in this article are primary, and I cannot find any secondary sources that treat "Alternative versions of Doctor Strange" as a topic. At best you could find something about individual incarnations, though even that is a sketchy prospect, but combining them into one topic absolutely is WP:SYNTH. The main Doctor Strange article is already crufty enough and would not be improved by merging any of this dubious content there. Reyk YO! 10:23, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @Reyk: It's not synthesis. There is an editorial from a reliable news source discussing the topic right here and there are primary sources in the article. For something to be synthesis, there has to be an actual claim being made, and in this instance, it's just listing off versions of Doctor Strange.
- (To be clear, I am not voting "Keep" on this nomination. I don't see enough coverage for it to pass GNG. My response above was questioning Archrogue copy/pasting the same weak WP:SUPPORT vote on every nomination. Bandwagon voting such as this has been a lot more common than you would think. When my laptop is fixed, I'm most likely going to file an RfC on AFD reform, since it is clear that several of the recurring voters and a few of the nominators aren't following deletion criteria or aren't aware that AfD isn't general clean-up. Example. There is also a lot of WP:PERNOM and WP:ITSCRUFT going around, mostly from the same voters on multiple nominations. I'm surprised an administrator hasn't noticed or cracked down on it by now.) Darkknight2149 07:08, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Poorly sourced WP:BLP of a writer and policy analyst who has no claim of notability strong enough to exempt her from having to have much better references than this. Five of the seven footnotes here are primary sources that are not support for notability at all (the unpublished private archives of a theatre company, IMDb, her own self-published website about herself, etc.) -- and of the just two footnotes that are actual reliable sources, both are just tangentially verifying stray facts about other things or people named in this article, without mentioning Margret Kopala's name at all in conjunction with them, all of which means that none of the sources are establishing her notability. As always, people are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because it's possible to find technical verification that they exist -- the notability test requires having media independently establish the significance of her work by doing third party journalism about it, and nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from that.

I think it would be fair to ask @Paul Carpenter:, @LewisMCYoutube: and @Zxcvbnm: whether they want to reconsider their !votes. Modussiccandi (talk) 20:43, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- @Modussiccandi: sorry but looking at the article right now all the references are empty and nothing points to ScreenRant. I assume this was just a mistake on someone's part. If the sources could be actually placed into the article (or even placed here), then sure, I'd reconsider. --Paul Carpenter (talk) 07:54, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Don't Delete There is an official wiki made by the developers and a website that can be used for sourcing so I say don't delete. And I am fixing the article now. --AndrewMidkiff (talk) 17:16, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks, AndrewMidkiff, but I'm not sure the developer's website will fix notability issues. We need sources that are independent (WP:GNG) from the subject to prove it merits inclusion in Wikipedia. Best, Modussiccandi (talk) 17:24, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- wait but If I make I guide on steam can I cite that? --AndrewMidkiff (talk) 17:29, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Look so the page for verafibiltty says that "Self-published expert sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established subject-matter expert, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications". The developer is the most expert on the subject matter because they are the ones you produce it, also anyone can prove the information by playing the game. There are many steam guides that verify the content on the wiki so I think the offical wiki is a good source.
--AndrewMidkiff (talk) 17:33, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- AndrewMidkiff, if I understand you correctly, you are one of the game's developers. First of all, let me say that you are strongly discouraged from editing on a subject which you are closely connected with. You should also consider declaring your conflict of interest on your userpage. About the notability of the game: Steam is an e-commerce vendor. Such sources may be used to verify game titles and technical information, but, given that they want to sell the product, do not reach the standard of independence required for WP:GNG. What Wikipedia is looking for are reputable, third-party source, e.g. a review of the game in a reputable newspaper. Modussiccandi (talk) 18:55, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Ok, I am not a developer of the game I just play the game, and I don't want to see the article deleted and I am interested in making a great article. Also the official wiki is a wiki and is not an opinionated source though the offical website and steam is. --AndrewMidkiff (talk) 19:11, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- My apologies, I misunderstood you there. I don't think the official wiki should be viewed as a reliable source because it can be edited by anybody. It would be easy for me to create an account on that website and insert false information. For these reasons Wikipedia itself is not suitable for use as source in Wikipedia articles. Modussiccandi (talk) 19:52, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- But what if I prove everything I add to the article in the game and document it using screen recording? --AndrewMidkiff (talk) 20:00, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- If you made those recordings yourself, that would be original research which should not appear in articles per WP:ORIGINAL. Look, the point is that the article should be built from reliable, independent, secondary sources. In other words, we need something from a good, published source (e.g. The Guardian, The New York Times etc.) Modussiccandi (talk) 20:09, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Hello, I surrender; go delete the page, I don't care, even though you can easily prove every thing I could put on the page "it is not fit for wikipedia because it is orignal research". It just seems like spilting hairs to me, consider this example: The fact that the sky is blue is not internationally known but everyone who is told that the sky is blue can easily prove it, but no one can publish it on wikipedia because no "reputable source" has published it. It just seems like I just need to call the New York Times and tell them hey, can you publish a article that is a info dump on this game because if you do then I can publish it on wikipedia, see how stupid that is, yeah. You can delete the article but I will make a well fleshed out article on my sandbox. --AndrewMidkiff (talk) 20:49, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, the sky being blue technically doesn't really need a reliable source to confirm it, but that has no bearing on this. Information on a video game most definitely should be confirmed by a reliable source. Unlike the sky being blue, it can potentially be wrong if you just do your own personal investigation on it because other people would need to play the game to confirm it.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 21:08, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep (see second paragraph for keep vote) The nominator appears to have only done a generic Google search. Using Google News I found a few additional sources, specifically Screen Rant (a pop culture website that does employ several editors) and several articles by Game Tyrant (such as this one). I'm not particularly convinced that Game Tyrant is reliable (its not listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Sources nor was I able to find any information on the website's/ writer's qualifications) nor am I making a keep vote at this point. However, I think the discussion so far has failed to adequately analyze the available sources. While notability is still in doubt, this is not a "there are no sources whatsoever" type article. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 18:59, 29 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Screen Rant is a decent enough source (based on the link above, they maintain policies on subjects such as fact checking, corrections, ethics, etc. and their editorial team has some impressive credentials). Oxen Games and Tyrant Games are also decent sources for the “reception” section. Sourcing is honestly still a bit sparse and I would like to see more coverage from major gaming sources, but in the end I think there is just enough coverage to push this article over the gng line. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 02:17, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per the sources by Spirit of Eagle. Screen rant is a reliable source for this and Game Tyrant appears to segregate native advertising from their editorial reviews. I was also able to find this review which appears to be done by professional reviewers with editorial oversight. W42 18:09, 30 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep per the sources found. A lot of this is still unreferenced, leaving very little referenced material that will need to be removed. A merge might make sense if a target could be found. Jontesta (talk) 15:58, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I'm not too sure. I'm able to find some coverage of him (not sure if its enough) but also, I definitely remember seeing somewhere that previously having raced in the European Formula 3 Championship was sufficient to satisfy NMOTORSPORT, and while this may be a controversial view, I think that from 2019, Euroformula Open has become the defacto top tier "actual" F3 series in Europe. Certainly Sebastian Estner isn't the only driver with an article whose top level of racing so far is Euroformula Open. A7V2 (talk) 10:17, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- You raise a good point there, but I'm not too sure about European F3 meeting NMOTORSPORT (maybe point 3?). If you could find that discussion I would be very appreciative; looking at Google results I'm not convinced he has significant coverage.
5225C (talk • contributions) 12:01, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- As I have said a few times (eg), NMOTORSPORT isn't really that helpful (in particular point 1 given that often even the most professional of motor sports have negligible prizemoney, and Trans Am, at least in current form, is not very well covered by reliable sources to the point where the drivers would all be notable). As to your question,I'm sure there was something else, but at least this recent discussion, although not really about this, no-one questioned the notability of Arthur Leclerc given that he has competed in Formula Regional which is of course arguably the successor to the European F3 series. But then as you say, there isn't much coverage of him (Sebastian Estner), and articles such as [21] I'm not sure if that's enough for significant coverage. So I suppose I will remain Neutral, or lean weak delete. A7V2 (talk) 00:59, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- To clarify, when I referred to NMOTORSPORTS here and on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Nicola Marinangeli I mean more the spirit, rather than the letter, of the guidelines. A7V2 (talk) 01:05, 2 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- I understand your issues with NMOTORSPORT, the guideline does seem pretty poorly designed. With the case of Arthur Leclerc, he has received a fair bit more attention and therefore coverage than Sebastian Estner. I understand your point but I don't think competing in F3 makes a driver notable, that should be combined with meaningful coverage.

Since this was created through AfC, I would like to hear reviewer @SL93:'s reasoning for accepting the draft given it does not meet a single criteria of WP:NMOTORSPORT and has a very small selection of sources (one being an entry list, another being an Instagram post, and none covering the subject in depth).

- Comment: 5225C I was unsure if it met WP:NMOTORSPORT and so was the AFC commenter before me. It's not like the articles for the races make it clear to non-fans whether they are fully professional or not. I didn't know where best to ask for opinions until recently and I was only trying to make a decision on a draft that has been in AfC for months...since no one there apparently understood that guideline either. SL93 (talk) 15:09, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- I do actually think this coverage is fine per WP:GNG, which I found by only searching for a few minutes - 1, 2, and 3. GNG trumps anything else when it comes to notability. SL93 (talk) 15:15, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't think any of these sources meet the requirement for significant coverage. They are both short recaps of his results and entries. Other articles simply note his participation in different series. There's none of the ongoing, subject-specific coverage required for notability to be established. If a driver's notability was established based on the number of articles in which they were mentioned, than we'd be writing articles for every second F4 driver – that's partly why WP:NMOTORSPORT exists. In the end, the subject is just another junior formulae driver and hasn't received much more than the passing interest given to most.
5225C (talk • contributions) 23:36, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, then from what I've seen over the years, all of the individual sports notability guidelines need an overhaul. I see plenty of articles of professional athletes that can stay around only because they are professional - despite having absolutely no significant coverage. It's backwards thinking in my mind. Though that's a discussion for somewhere else that I know won't result in anything else. SL93 (talk) 23:44, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

So, I agree with the nominator that it fails both WP:GNG and the notability guidelines for software. I'm not sure what the keep voter is talking about with the whole "robustness of the page" thing, but we aren't talking about food or something here and 100% the article lacking any references matter if there's no other references out there to add to it.

- Delete Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion. Not a single reference meets the criteria for establishing notability of a company/organization as discussed above. The main failure is a complete lack of any "Independent Content" which is required in order to count towards establishing notability and must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject.

- Hi Salimfadhley Daily Pakistan is a english newspaper of Pakistan and same as Daily Times and many articles here on Wikipedia has source of them so if you ignored that two top newspapers then here i found two more links.
- I have reviewed these references, and neither seem to be significant coverage. They are very short biographical articles from relatively unknown publishers. If these are the best sources we have in English, then based on that I am inclined to vote to delete the or bump the article back to draft-status until we can verify the Arabic references. --Salimfadhley (talk) 15:55, 1 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A previous article instance was brought to AfD in February 2019. Ajf773's rationale at that time was "Doesn't meet the criteria for WP:CREATIVE. Cinematographers generally need more independent sources than working on a few films to be considered notable.". The AfD closed early with a G11 speedy-deletion. The present article instance is not promotional, consisting mainly of a bare bones table of films on which the subject has worked, with a couple of poor listing references, but that earlier AfD rationale seems appropriate here too. (I also note the article carries maintenance tags that predate this version and in one case the earlier version, indicating some copy-paste.) Searches find passing mentions of the subject as being on the crew for various films, which can help verify the article but evidence of working is not enough to demonstrate attained notability. I should also mention that I removed a couple of article categories concerning industry awards as they were not in the article text; my searches are not finding evidence of awards but if these can be supported they could change the consideration of notability.(See comment below about copy-pasted categories from another biographical article) AllyD (talk) 07:29, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete He doesn't seem notable from what I can tell. Which isn't suppressing. Since it's hard for even "Western" Hollywood Cinematographers to be. Sure, the article could be drafted, but my guess is that it either be recreated without improvement and review, or it would just rot. Sure, there might be non-English sources about him, but my guess is that they are trivial name drops that don't establish his notability. One giveaway to that being the case is that there is no non-English language article about him. Usually if someone in India is notable there is an Indian language article on them. Especially if they are in the film industry. So, my guess is that this guy isn't notable. The films he was the Cinematographer for hardly are. --Adamant1 (talk) 12:03, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If you google his name you find 100s of news sources. I give the news articles in some of the most known news sources in The Netherlands. Not saying this are the best articles, but showing he is known nationwide. The story is at the main Dutch national newspapers: Trouw, De Telegraaf, Algemeen Dagblad. Also by Belgian national newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws. Some other secondary national known sources: Intermediair, Vier, Linda Magazine after his appeareance in Jinek [nl], Vice, De Ondernemer. Story from a local news media outlet Omroep Zeelend: “without him there wouldn’t have been football in this region”. In my opinion this is more than enough meeting GNG, so I stop here. But google his name and you will find many more articles. SportsOlympic (talk) 23:05, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - appears notable, article just needs a complete overhaul. GiantSnowman 07:13, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - Comments For WP:GNG there are rather a lot of different news articles in the Dutch and French-Belgium language hits, showing there is clearly evidence that he can pass WP:GNG. There are some sources behind the paywall at Dutch Finical Times. The article could be grateful improved. It's a bit hard when I don't know Dutch. But from what I can see on a simple google search there is more than enough hits. Govvy (talk) 20:18, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. There is no consensus whether the sources actually lead to Danar passing WP:GNG. (non-admin closure) (t · c) buidhe 21:33, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. There's already coverage cited in the article, and there are reviews of his album from WYCE and Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Google Books suggests more coverage exists. --Michig (talk) 09:51, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- The Google book references are mostly producer credits and are effectively passing mentions and the one small para in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer isn't the sufficiently in-depth, reliable, independent and secondary source that is needed for a BLP. If there was several reviews + sufficient coverage to validate the article, perhaps, but I don't see it. Producers per consensus generally don't make it on Wikipedia, so it needs to show he is a real musician. Currently he has 125 monthly listeners on Spotify, nothing on Soundcloud, Napster, Amazon music and no social media presence. scope_creepTalk 10:12, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- And there is not whisper on Google News. scope_creepTalk 11:00, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment am neutral on this one but there is no consensus that music producers should be excluded from Wikipedia; it's just that many of them receive sparse coverage. When one does pass WP:GNG there is nothing blocking their inclusion, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 19:50, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Yip, your right. Not consensus. More a, habit as they tend not to have coverage. scope_creepTalk 19:57, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep in addition to the PopMatters piece already in the article, I was able to find another review on this Italian website, which from putting the article through google translate looks to provide SIGCOV. I reckon that combined, this sourcing is enough to pass GNG. Devonian Wombat (talk) 22:04, 27 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

existing sources and quick search does not show wider notability. Fails WP:NCORP, especially in terms of establishing sufficient sigcov from sources that satisfies broad audience requirements. Graywalls (talk) 18:33, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep; The first three references give strong notability with regard to the role and function of this establishment in the community. It is more than a neighbourhood coffee house. --Whiteguru (talk) 11:59, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- request for clarification @Whiteguru:, which three? If you meant sequentially, Significant, independent, reliable and secondary. #1 and 2: these two are the same sources. Worker-run. Collectively-managed. Anarchist publishing and distribution since 1990. It might not pass independent and reliable as far as notability establishment is concerned. The article is tagged "AK Allies" and it appears that there's a wholesaler/retailer relationship between the two. I'm assuming that the cafe in question sells AK Press published books, thus "independent" (of the group writing about the article subject) is questionable. #3: it's the organization itself. absolutely fails "independent" requirements. Graywalls (talk) 12:29, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak delete. Doesn't look good—almost all of the coverage is routine and hyper-local (Mountain Xpress, WLOS, Blue Ridge Public Radio, Citizen Times) about local news/Asheville topics. And there's these two, but altogether there isn't enough significant coverage in multiple reliable, independent sources (?) to write an article worthy of the subject.
- Not finding traction in alt weeklies or radical press publications either. czar 18:50, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- That book might not do it for WP:AUD, and content wise I can't comment since I can't see it. The boingboing. Given how dependent it is on the subject's facebook and Instagram pages, this looks like a mostly dependent coverage with sensational comments regarding a single event. If this event received ongoing coverage beyond the month or so after the incident, I would say it adds to notability. Graywalls (talk) 00:17, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- That's a rather strained argument. Did these warrant analysis? I listed them because they're both innocuous. Surowski is an industry journal article that has a quarter-page section on the bookstore. You can request EBSCOhost access at WP:TWL, especially if you expect to be nominating many more articles. Boing Boing is sufficient for what it is regardless of whether the stated incident has further coverage. It has no issues of "dependency" with the subject matter. As I said, we'd need more to constitute significant coverage for the topic but that doesn't disqualify both these sources are independent, reliable, ultimately fine, yet weak for notability without further sources. czar 01:50, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep we have reliable sources to prove WP:N. Wm335td (talk) 16:29, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- explain please If you would say which sources and which of those satisfyWP:ORGDEPTH, it would help a whole lot more than just say "we have reliable sources". Mountain Express is a local source; and series or articles by the same publication or same journalist counts as one, so that's one. Not one of the sources currently shown meets the criteria significant, independent, reliable and secondary and nobody so far has offered sources that do. Of those that meets all those, a minimum of one has to be regional, national or international. Also, a few hours is somethimg, but that "keep" vote was casted four days past when the AfD should have wrapped up on the second relist. Graywalls (talk) 16:37, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

- ReaderofthePack, I'd be happy to close this so it can be moved :) My question is, should it be moved to your space or to Drafts, since you're not the original author? Since you're an admin I'm sure you'll know the proper place and will leave the move to you. Best wishes from Los Angeles, // Timothy :: talk 04:57, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
