The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. Sources were either not reliable, or if reliable did not contain "significant" coverage. Much of the material in sources was repeated from press releases, which does not qualify as independent. SilkTork ^{✔Tea time} 14:21, 27 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment; at least part of it is a copyvio of this. No comment from me about notability/deletion/whatever just yet though, I'll look more later. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 02:38, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep:I find that this article does meet the requirements to have a Wikipedia Page based on notability. She meets more than one of the required criteria for inclusion. I noticed the page is no longer nominated for speedy deletion which I think was a just change in status. However this nomination for deletion should be reconsidered based on the points I will illustrate below:

Alex Young has qualified as per Wiki notability guidelines for musicians as stated per Wikipedia Criteria for musicians and ensemble

Criteria for musicians and ensembles A musician or ensemble (note that this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, DJ, musical theatre group, instrumentalist, etc.) may be notable if it meets at least one of the following criteria - Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself.

Reference number 1 on Alex Young from a notable online version of print media Hello Beautiful. Here is a link to the article From “Sesame Street” To Cee Lo’s Opening Act, Meet Songstress Alex Young

Reference number 5 the artist was selected to be recognized as retail giant Walmart's Soundcheck Risers "Next Big Thing" Walmart’s original performance series where they showcase live performances and exclusive behind-the-scenes footage from original in-studio sets all filmed exclusively and broadcast in Walmart stores nationwide. Here is a link to the published video on Walmart's site "Walmart Soundcheck Risers Alex Young".

Reference number 13 the artist was interviewed by American Teen Magazine Seventeen/CosmoGirl the link to the article in this specific reference can be found here "Meet Alex Young". Interesting enough I was also able to find another interview by the popular teen magazine Singer Alex Young talks Fashion, Beauty, and Diamonds! This second web reference should probably be included in the article as well.

Reference number 14 the artist was the featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment One-on-One which broadcasts across national TV network PBS, she was interviewed by Emmy Award-winning television news anchor, and Star-Ledger columnist Steve Adubato. One-on-One with Steve Adubato, is a program that gives insight into today's world through interviews with actors, authors, journalists, CEOs, artists and educational innovators who each share their experiences and accomplishments as stated by WQXR-FM^[1]. PBS is the most prominent provider of television programs to public television stations in the United States, distributing series such as Sesame Street which Alex Young was cast in for 2 seasons.

Reference number 23 the artist has become one of the most prominent representatives of style on the New York City scene she filmed a scheduled interview with model and entertainment reporter Louise Roe who was reporting for one of Amazons largest fashion retailers ShopBop^[2] while attending Fashions Night Out. Alex Young is considered a socialite and was mentioned in a press release as being in expected in attendance prior to the interview. ^[3][4]

A quick search on sites such as Livingly Media's Zimbio.com/StyleBistro.com which covers celebrity and entertainment news or Getty Images and AP in the fashion and celebrity section for print and online publication photos reveals photos of Alex Young on multiple red carpet events such as some of the links I will add for you below. I do think that the article needs a lot of work which I am sure the Wikipedia community will help with, but I do not think that this persons Wikipedia page qualifies for deletion. After all that is why Wikipedia exists as a community to help collaborate on different articles such as this one. Here are the Zimbio red carpet captures of Miss Young:

Alex Young attends the 2009 VH1 Divas cocktail party on September 16, 2009 in New York City.

Alex Young has also had multiple videos in rotation on both a national and international platform through Viacoms media giants MTV & VH-1. I will do the work and add some of those links here so you can see that this artist truly is notable, this is verifiable and all of the sources are certainly reliable, not self published and independent of the artist and her label.

One more thing I would like to add, there are many other article on this artist, way too many to list here but by doing a good faith search on the internet it is not hard to verify this is a person of notability who certainly meets more than one of Wikipedia criteria for inclusion. I should also mention that social media giant Facebook has even recognized her as a person of notability by giving her a verified facebook page which can be seen www.facebook.com/AlexYoungMusic. Thank you for your consideration. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mc2Mari (talk • contribs) 17:45, 16 November 2014‎ (UTC)[reply]

Hello Gene I would like to make a request of you to please reconsider and revoke your Afd nomination of Alex Young. I have added valid sources to help nullify the your original cause for nomination. Please take a moment to review the changes on the page. Thank you. Mc2Mari (talk) 00:13, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

we need significant coverage in reliably published sources that are independent of the subject of the potential article. The few vaguely reliable sources dont seem to have significant coverage. anything "significant" seems to be from non reliable sources or sources that are not independent of the subject. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 01:16, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep: I don't understand how you consider sources such as Hello Beautiful, MTV, VH-1, Soul Train, ASCAP, Seventeen, PBS, HipHopDX, Billboard, MTVU, LogoTV, Examiner.com, Walmart and multiple other sources that were cited to directly verify information in the biography as non reliable. Based on Wikipedias guidelines these are all reliable, not self published and independent of the artist and her label. Many of the links if you actually took the time to click through them in the article do qualify as significant coverage and many of the articles are excessively related to this artist and her background as a musician, song-writer, dancer, philanthropist and actress. Further more as outlined in non reliable sources Articles should be based on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. This means that we publish the opinions only of reliable authors, and not the opinions of Wikipedians who have read and interpreted primary source material for themselves. That is what has been done here. I would appreciate non malicious tagging with doing your due diligence research. Thank you. Mc2Mari (talk) 01:47, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. Amazing (Alex Young album) and Crash This Party, recordings by the subject, have been added to this discussion. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 03:00, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Wikipedia is not an advertising platform. Stop rewarding bad faithed editing and delete spam. This article too much of a bloated mess of promotion and a bombardment of bad sources that we should just delete this junk. duffbeerforme (talk) 03:30, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. This page should not be deleted based on WP:MUSICBIO and GNG and therefore should not be deleted. The article has been edited to meet Wikipedia standards in good faith effort and has had many third party references added for verification from reliable sources. This page meets more than one of the required criteria. I would also like to ask that comments left here be thoughtful, helpful and that comments be made after good faith research to support your reason for Keep or Delete. The reason for inclusion are included below:

This artist has been Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself.

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.

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.

Has been placed in rotation nationally by a major radio or music television network.

Has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or TV network. Mc2Mari (talk) 15:34, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

it clearly has NOT been edited to meet Wikipedia standards as you are using commercial promotional sites like Walmart, itunes, amazon as sources. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 15:40, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. I did not create the page but I did do goof faith research as you clearly have not done. I am not here to argue as you appear to hae a very hostile nature in all of your comments which are completely non constructive towards any discussion on Wikipedia. There are no longer iTunes links as references, which you clearly have not done a good faith effort of going through the edits. I am not contesting deleting of the album or the single which I also did not create. I have a right to comment on this discussion as a part of the Wikipedia community without being harrased as outlined in Wikipedia:List of policies. As a community member I have read many of Wikipedias policies in a good faith effort to understand the proper way in which Wikipedia works and in a a good faith effort to respectfully adhere to community policies. It appears that you have not read the policies regarding Wikipedia:Civility and Wikipedia:Harassment. Amazon was never used as a reference, the word Amazon.com was however linked to another wikipedia page. If that is against wikipedia policies simply explain that and do an edit to the article or discuss it in a non confrontational manner. Stating that the artist was featured as a Walmart Soundcheck Riser artist is a substantial non trivial piece of her story and Walmart's Soundcheck Risers "Next Big Thing" is Walmart’s original performance series where they showcase live performances and exclusive behind-the-scenes footage from original in-studio sets all filmed exclusively and broadcast in Walmart stores nationwide which is a separate entity of Walmart.com. If this was illustrated incorrectly in the bio simply correct it yourself based on your extensive knowledge or have a meaning conversation about how to improve it.

Above all else... even if what you said in your last comment by consensus was determined to be true about those 3 entities being commercial promotional sites, that still does not discredit the other 59 references listed. The article lists many references as wikipedia requires a page to cite sources for Wikipedia:Verifiability "whenever" possible and states they must have been published by a reputable publication which was done. It also says that any unsourced material may be challenged and removed, which you are more than welcome to do as a community member as long is it does not constitute Wikipedia:Vandalism which I couldn't help but noticed you have been accused of and involved in many conflicts. I do not wish to have that experience with you regarding this page. I would also like to ask request Wikipedia:No personal attacks against me as I do not see how it is in anyway positively contributing to the Wikipedia community. No disrespect has been intended in any of my commentary towards you and to answer you previously inflammatory question directed at me, I am very well versed in English and DO understand what the word "significant" means. I would even entertain having a healthy discussion on the term. Thank you. 68.184.234.56 (talk) 17:35, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. I unintentionally commented without being logged in a take responsibility for the above comment. Mc2Mari (talk) 17:39, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment; Let's keep it civil people (and I'm talking to both TheRedPenOfDoom and Mc2Mari here). Accusations of bad faith and snarky comments ain't needed and don't help the discussion. Also, any admin who decides to closes this when its time's up is perfectly capable of seeing what's what in the discussion and the article; there's simply no need for incessant back-and-forth arguing. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 17:57, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. I wasn't arguing I was responding to TheRedPenOfDoom and requesting that he no longer engages in personal attacks, harassment and adhere to Wikipedia conduct policy. I was also responding to his comment which was untrue. If I broke a rule it wasn't intentional. Thank you for your concern Dylanfromthenorth. Mc2Mari (talk) 18:06, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete I feel too much of the articles sourcing is from publications and material based either on paid for or "glamourised" promotion, can't seem to find much consistency in third party sources here in a significant nature. This stuff has to go, good for the gossip shows, but not for an encyclopedia. Whitewater111 (talk) 07:45, 23 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable run of the mill minor league player. Fails GNG--Yankees10 03:29, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I refer you to the protracted AfD discussion we had on Robbie Widlansky. Apparently being named in a lot of links is good enough to pass WP:GNG, even if mention the player is in a fleeting manner over and over. However, snark aside, the links I provided mention him at least somewhat in depth, they don't just give him a line like on a transaction page. But really it doesn't even matter since I voted delete anyway. Alex (talk) 07:00, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Delete, perhaps it is too soon for the subject to be considered notable per WP:GNG. Subject has received multiple trivial mentions in multiple reliable sources, but not enough sources where the subject has received significant coverage. The sources where the subject of this AfD has received significant coverage is this one from SFGate, and this one from Lodi News; the first has the subject of this AfD as the primary subject of the content, whereas the second has the subject as a secondary subject. I would say both would provide significant coverage, but these two in and of themselves do not appear to be sufficient to meet WP:GNG, yet (maybe one or two more). Subject has not played in the major league yet so fails WP:NBASEBALL. Therefore, it is my opinion that this article should be incubated by the primary content creator, and if the subject meets GNG or NBASEBALL in the future, resurrect it.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 05:44, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Mainly per WP:BASEBALL/N and WP:NSPORT. The guidelines for notability state that involvement at the major league level is presumed notable, and this player hasn't been. Although sources exist, I didn't find any reliable ones to verify notability. This player will probably become notable in the future (maybe even near future), but it's WP:TOOSOON to be an article right now. ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 22:31, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The article needs to be cleaned up but, as I've said before, AfD is not cleanup. Tchaliburton (talk) 14:29, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

They don't need to be cleaned up if they can't first establish notability. If you've found enough sources to accurately source and article about this character, by all means, share with me. But that doesn't seem to exist. Same situation as in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Holly J. Sinclair, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Peter Stone (Degrassi character), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sean Cameron all of which were deleted/redirected to the List of Degrassi: The Next Generation characters article.

Comment. Hey. Remember when Wikipedia was like an encyclopedia? MiracleMat (talk) 02:30, 10 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Television characters do not automatically qualify for separate standalone articles just because they exist — if you cannot add reliable sources which provide real-world context for why the character is a notable topic in an encyclopedia, then all they really warrant is inclusion in a list of characters. But that's not what this is — it's just an in-universe summary of plots he was involved in, which provides no demonstration whatsoever of why this belongs in an encyclopedia rather than a Degrassi fansite. Delete or merge into a character list unless real sources demonstrating real notability can actually be added. Bearcat (talk) 22:37, 10 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Gloss's concerns and examples above. Similar character articles are deleted if there are not enough sources for notability outside of the particular show; this one should be too. Hustlecat ^{do it!} 20:42, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak delete for lack of 3rd party references. Some references are buried in the text, but they don't fully support the statements they follow. For example, there is an Ad Age article that shows that Deepend won some award one year, but not two years. Adding to the difficulty of finding good sources, there are a number of seemingly individual web design companies using some variant on "Deepend" in their names. Finding information that is unambiguously about the company in the article is going to be difficult, as it no longer exists, but many others using the name do.

• Keep: don't be so sure about 'clearly': 1 2 3 4 5 just off the top of google. More could be found. As an aside to the nom, consider using Twinkle in the future to automatically place AfD tags on articles, maint tags, CSD tags etc. Makes life much, much easier.

• Keep It can be very appropriate to keep a main page for a company, and delete the ones for its subsidiaries. Like here. The Group is large enough to be notable, there are refs available, & in facts the refs used on the specific pages can many of them be added also. It might even be possible to reconstruct the more specific articles if a non-promotional editor were to work on them. DGG ( talk ) 23:59, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The last afd failed to reach consensus because during his six year spell at Cardiff City, he played a single FA Cup match. While technically meeting WP:NSPORT, there is no indication the article meets WP:GNG, so, in my opinion, it falls under the part of the WP:NSPORT lede that says: the meeting of any of these criteria does not mean that an article must be kept.

• Keep per WP:NFOOTY as he has been a professional player for 9 years and is a 6-time national team player. The non-binding clause from category-specific notability guidelines is generally not invoked, but this isn't really a borderline case anyway. Playing at the highest level in a professional sport is pretty much always grounds for notability. Deadbeef 20:55, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

His six appearances for the Welsh youth teams are explicitly excluded as a source of notability by WP:NSPORT. The guideline also makes it clear that it only applies to those footballers who have played in actual matches. Given that in a six year career, he played only once, then left the game entirely for six years, and is now playing in the fourth tier of Welsh football (a pyramid in which even the first tier isn't fully pro), this very clearly is a borderline case. Finally, the claim that lede of WP:NSPORT is not invoked is factually inaccurate. Just looking at the afd's listed by GiantSnowman at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Takumi Ogawa makes it clear that when relevant, this part of WP:NSPORT is regularly applied. Sir Sputnik (talk) 21:38, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Changing !vote to delete per IJA, I thought 'senior' and 'fully professional' were interchangeable. Deadbeef 19:39, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - one appearance a few years ago (to technically meet WP:NFOOTBALL) is not enough when he fails WP:GNG. Some WP:COMMONSENSE is needed here, and plenty of AFD precedent exists to say that barely passing NFOOTBALL is not enough when you fail GNG, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Oscar Otazu, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vyacheslav Seletskiy, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aleksandr Salimov, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andrei Semenchuk, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Artyom Dubovsky, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cosmos Munegabe, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Marios Antoniades, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Scott Sinclair (footballer born 1991), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fredrik Hesselberg-Meyer (2nd nomination), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Matheus Eccard, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roland Szabó (2nd nomination), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Metodija Stepanovski, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Linas Klimavičius and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Takumi Ogawa, amongst others.

The last afd failed to reach consensus largely due to a lack of participation considering how long it was open. The underlying notability issues remain. He has not played in a fully pro league or received significant coverage, meaning the article fails WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Sir Sputnik (talk) 18:18, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Liga Leumit, in which he has played 4 games, is listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Fully professional leagues as a fully professional league. As long as it is, shouldn't this be a speedy keep? Even if it isn't, Greenberg has an unusual background and has received substantial coverage in the U.S. and Israel that (barely) passes GNG, as outlined in the first AfD. For what it's worth, here is a recent interview with him on Israel Sports Radio on Tel Aviv's TLV1.--Arxiloxos (talk) 18:55, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The Liga Leumit entry at FPL specifically says that the league was only fully pro prior to the 2008/09 season. All of Mr. Greenbergs appearances in that league were after that, so they do not qualify under WP:NSPORT. Sir Sputnik (talk) 19:15, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As written, that date limitation appears to be applicable only to Liga Artzit. Can you point to a discussion or source that applies it to Liga Leumit? The cited sources both seem to refer to Liga Leumit as a professional league.--Arxiloxos (talk) 20:05, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep/merge all. Nineteen Eighty-Four is the subject of extensive analysis and critcism in works such as George Orwell's 1984 and George Orwell's Guide Through Hell: A Psychological Study of 1984. The various features of the story have analogues in the real world because the story is based upon real-world politics.

• Bearing in mind the level of coverage the book has received, these articles have WP:SNOW chance of being deleted and should not have been nominated for deletion. I think this AfD should be procedurally closed and the articles then proposed for merger in the normal way if there is still felt to be a case for merger.

I am so pleased you found your references. I will to withdraw my nomination for deletion if you provide one more reference. Here is the reason why I say this. The two articles that you reference are identical except one is in Czek and one is an Slavic. I am not an expert on the media in either of these two countries, but the content of these two references that you provide is identical. I do not enjoy nominating articles for deletion. I am very happy to withdraw the nomination when I can. I personally believe that an article has value on Wikipedia. Even if it only has two references. So I hope that you do your best to find just one more reference. I wish the best for your band and I hope that you become very successful.

WP:Not a phonebook Wikipedia is not a directory listing. It would be virtually impossible to maintain this is a complete and thorough list and offers no substance being being a directory listing of airports. David Condrey ^{log talk} 10:25, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• More towards merge because this seems to be just a special case of Port of entry where the port just so happens to be an airport.

• Merge - This article (as mentioned above) should be merged with the Port of entry article. The article has issues; that's clearly obvious. But those concerns should be addressed instead of reaching for the "big red button". The best solution is to delete the tables per WP:NOT, and merge the remaining contents. ~Oshwah~ ^{(talk) (contribs)} 22:53, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• obvious merge to port of entry, though I think the list of airports is (as stated in the nomination) problematic. Mangoe (talk) 00:05, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge and redirect. There is material developed in the list-section--numbers of international passengers--which is not included in, and which would enrich, corresponding List of airports by country articles. So merge that info to airports list-articles, assuming the source can be identified. E.g. List of airports in Brazil does not have number of passengers info. Other material, such as the section on "Stateless persons", currently consisting of "Some cases of statelessness have occurred in airports of entry, forcing people to stay there for an extended period. A famous case was of Mehran Karimi Nasseri, an expelled Iranian who lived in the Charles de Gaulle Airport in France for approximately eighteen years after being denied entry to the country. There are two films about his story, Tombés du ciel and The Terminal.^[1] Another case is Zahra Kamalfar who lived in the Sheremetyevo International Airport for many months before getting refugee status in Canada."^[2]

would be appropriately merged to Port of entry article, which lacks such a section. And then Redirect probably to Port of entry. Keep the edit history in the redirect, partly for reference in extracting the number of passengers info, rather than outright deleting. And "airport of entry" is a reasonable term for users to try, so it should be kept as a redirect. --doncram 23:45, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This individual did not actually - in the words of WP:Notability - do anything "worthy of notice". They joined the army, trained, and were killed before they even entered combat. Like unfortunately many others. If anything they only came to broader awareness due to the Band of Brothers series, and their part in the actual Easy Company has been expanded with some biographical elements without which this article would be but a few sentences.

Subject has received multiple insignificant mentions in multiple non-primary or secondary reliable sources, however, none appear to be significant coverage of the subject of this AfD himself, but about the organization he was a member of; therefore the subject fails WP:GNG, but can be seen as meeting WP:BIO1E. Soldier clearly fails WP:SOLDIER, not meeting any criteria set forth within it. If we go with strait WP:GNG, the article should be deleted. If we go with BIO1E, the article should be redirected to the event which the subject has received notability for (in this case being a member of Easy Company as depicted in Band of Brothers.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 22:03, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

you misunderstand WP:OUTCOMES It does not say all high schools are notable and should have a wikipedia article. All schools must meet WP:ORG or WP:GNG, many high schools are able to do this, but it is obvious that not all do.

Trust me, nobody here misunderstands WP:OUTCOMES (except perhaps you). It merely illustrates a de facto consensus. I don't recall any secondary school ever being deleted at AfD. That's consensus. OUTCOMES just sums that up. And Wikipedia works on consensus, not rigid rules. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:06, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I AfD'd A. J. C. Jooste High School on the same grounds and the end result was a keep. See [17] Gbawden (talk) 09:15, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think A. J. C. Jooste High School should have been deleted; Jeugland Hoërskool doesn't even have the "honour" of having alleged criminally abusive teachers. Nothing has been said of Jeugland, other than it exists. It seems completely arbitary to me to say that a completly non notable high school can have a wikipedia article, but a notable primary school can't (for example Hillcrest Primary School. I believe this violates the principle of no inherited notability Wayne Jayes (talk) 09:49, 17 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Notable primary schools can have articles. They simply don't have the presumption of notability that secondary schools have. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:02, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Secondary schools are kept per longstanding consensus and precedent. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:00, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have read User:Necrothesp/Secondary_schools, but I still disagree, I just don't see the point of a wikipedia article whose only purpose is to assert that a school exists, the school's own webpage can do that. Why not create the school's wikipedia article when there is something of impotance to say about the school?

This has been discussed at AfD ad infinitem. Every single secondary school article has been kept. That's consensus, whether you like it or not. And that's how we work here. I don't agree with every consensus either (although I do agree with this one), but it's pointless to go against them. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:55, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - as per WP:OUTCOMES, high schools are generally notable - even if they fail GNG. This is is an undisputable precedent that has been in practice for many years. AfD is not the place for individual nominators to attempt back-door changes to policies and guidelines. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 09:57, 22 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

More exactly,we for convenience consider them as notable, in order to avoid thousands of afds over them. The counterpart is that we redirect primary and intermediate schools almost always, without trying to make and defend separate articles on them , leading to thousands of other afds also. It's not a inclusionist-on-schools position -- it's equally a deletionist-on-schools position, and best regarded as a working compromise. I wish we had more such, and then we would only need to debate here the matters which couldn't be settled by a simple rule.

This article was tagged for notability in 2012 and one tends to doubt his notability. His claim to fame is he is the scout who discovered Stan Musial - that seems very trivial. References are lacking and/or insufficient and he appears to fail both WP:BASE/N and WP:GNG. I noticed that he won the "Gil Hodges Award" one year, but a search of "Ollie Vanek" and "Gil Hodges Award" on Google returns no reliable links. I did further research on the award, and it looks like it is handed out by an obscure group, so it seems more like a "Rotarian of the Year" award than anything notable. He did get an obituary, but the one I saw wasn't in depth and basically only mentioned his signing of Musial. Alex (talk) 09:12, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

My first preference was to leave this for a while, with a notability tag, for the writer to work on it. Francis is obviously putting in a lot of time on it. However, due to Francis' continual removal of the notability tag and merge tag, I think AfD is the best option. Please see my comments (and Francis' andBD2412's) on Talk:Court chapel. Both BD2412 and I were supporting a possible merge with Royal chapel and Chapel (music). My original merge proposal template, with Court chapel (disambiguation), was repeatedly removed by Francis, despite my suggestion that discussions needed a bit of time. I won't be commenting further than to add my support for a merge with Royal chapel and Chapel (music), per BD2412's comments at Talk:Court chapel, although I would also support a delete. I don't want to get further involved, receive further aggressive messages or further edit warring, which is why I won't be commenting further. Boleyn (talk) 08:57, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Tx. Nobody wants this deleted, not even the one who proposed it for deletion. I said thanks for the promise to stop aggresive involvement by Boleyn. Notability has been established, there's no problem there (see talk:Court chapel), so a notability tag is without object. Same for this WP:AfD... I'd propose a speedy close of this AfD, apparently it was only opened out of spite, and as said nobody wants the article deleted (so, wrong forum). Whether, once the article has passed beyond stub state, it should be merged, split (Hofkapelle may be prove to be a good candidate for that) or whatever can be discussed once the stub stage is behind us. --Francis Schonken (talk) 10:15, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • In fact this AfD listing complies completely to speedy keep #1: "The nominator (...) fails to advance an argument for deletion—perhaps only proposing a non-deletion action such as (...) merging, and no one other than the nominator recommends that the page be deleted" (bolding added — well, from the nomination above follows that not even the nominator proposes a deletion). Admin? Or is there any other method to set a speedy keep in motion? --Francis Schonken (talk) 10:25, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Minimally sourced WP:BLP of a person notable primarily as a local-market television meteorologist on a single television station; the only source being cited here is covering her in the context of having had a stalker, which would make her a WP:BLP1E at best and is probably the kind of thing we should avoid writing about on personal privacy grounds. Virtually everything else here comes off less like a real encyclopedia article, and more like a prosified résumé probably only slightly rewritten from her profile on the station's own website. I'd be willing to reconsider this if somebody can source it up to a WP:GNG-satisfying standard, but WP:JOURNALIST does not give anyone a free notability pass just because they work for a TV station.

• Keep The phrase "in popular culture" is too vague for my taste whereas this page's title is comparatively clear.

Andrew (talk) 11:20, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect as Spirit suggests. Climate change narratives in fiction isn't a very likely search term but it is worth keeping the history in case some of it should be incorporated in the target article. I agree the target article's title isn't so good but then the title can be changed as a separate issue. And yes, the topic is notable. Thincat (talk) 14:55, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A genre term that seems to be the invention of Chris Kenji Beer, and as far as I can tell, is only used by Beer. According to the articles cited, he insists it is different from jazz koto. The article supplies two reasonably significant RS about Beer (the other two are not significant), which could be used to argue the notability of Beer, but for the term to be notable as a music style or genre, it would have to be shown to be used by more than one musician. That I cannot find. Note that the creator of the page is Cbeer (talk · contribs), which makes one suspect this may be self-promotion. Michitaro (talk) 01:20, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete (edit conflict) There appear to be competing ideas with this concept including the concept advanced by Beer in the article and event notices like this one from The Stranger, an Album name with koto performer Yonekawa Toshiko, and possibly this article describing some jazz and koto fusions. What I'm not seeing is any sources that provide commentary or exploration about Koto Jazz as a broader concept or evolution. In particular, this name does not seem to have any general use. On that basis, I'm not seeing sufficient notability here because the dots aren't connected and we can't engage in synthesis. I, JethroBT ^{drop me a line} 01:53, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure there's more coverage out there, but I'm tired to trying to refine my searches to avoid all the spam, blogs, and irrelevant hits. Searching for screensavers techtv -blogspot.com -wordpress.com -viewtopic -torrent seems to help, but it's still a chore to slog through all the crap. For anyone who wants to try to find more sources, I suggest PC Magazine, PC World, CNET, Wired.com, The New York Times, and Ars Technica.

• Keep Highlight show on TechTV; notability is not lost over time. Even killing all the segment and fan-cruft, a good stub is still formed from all of this. Nate • (chatter) 02:02, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak delete. A couple of appearances on the Hot Rap Singles chart might be evidence of notability, and his first album did receive a cursory AllMusic review. He also seems to have been the subject of some "Tupac is alive" conspiracy theories. However I can't find any substantial WP:RS coverage that would help him meet WP:GNG. The article itself states "Little is known about the rapper because of the lack of publicity." Camerafiend (talk) 16:15, 30 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep A couple of appearances on the Hot Rap Singles chart is evidence of notability, and the AllMusic review of Res-Sa-Rec-Shun is also notable as well, it's insanity to delete such a well-sourced article as this, and all the work I've put into it would go to waste, plus, it's just began after being a long deleted article for years. It just needs improvement, that's all. Please keep this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bozo33 (talk • contribs) 17:14, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • It isn't well sourced though. There isn't a single reference to a reliable secondary source. Camerafiend (talk) 19:14, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please do note however that the article can probably be userfied in the event that this discussion closes as delete. This would allow you to continue working on it if you think it can be improved. Camerafiend (talk) 19:24, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • How about the reception of Res-Sa-Rec-Shun is added? Then will you feel like keeping this article? Bozo33 (talk) 21:31, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Reprinting a review, verbatim, from a non-notable website (with insightful prose like "The verse is dope and it's about smoking and drinking.") does not address my concerns at all. There are still zero references to reliable, independent sources. Camerafiend (talk) 15:53, 19 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't meet WP:SOLDIER Gbawden (talk) 07:48, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The primary requirement for notability is "an individual is presumed to be notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources." WP:SOLDIER goes on to provide guidance of the kind of person who is likely to have sufficient coverage, but that doesn't mean if they are not that kind of person they haven't received sufficient coverage. Gysman is covered by Grocott's Mail, The Sunday Times and SA Soldier. So it is clear that Gysman has "received significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources" Wayne Jayes (talk) 08:30, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Obviously, as the creator of the page. As above, the rank etc issues are guidelines, the fact that he was exposed to the media is what makes him notable under those criteria. The fact that he had a unique command in a unique operation should count towards that too. BoonDock (talk) 08:43, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to 6 South African Infantry Battalion#List of Commanders. In searching for content about the subject, there are multiple mentions of the subject in non-primary or secondary reliable sources, that being said most of the sources mention the subject as part of the unit which the subject commands. I have found no reliable sources that are tertiary to the subject, where the subject has received significant coverage and is the primary topic of the content, therefore, the subject does not appear to meet WP:GNG. As for WP:SOLDIER, the statement "an individual is presumed to be notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources." comes directly from GNG, I should know I helped write SOLDIER. It means, that even if the subject does not meet the criteria set forth in SOLDIER, if the subject meets GNG, the article subject is notable. In this case the subject does not appear to meet any of the criteria set forth in SOLDIER and does not meet GNG. Therefore, at this time the best that can be done other than deletion is to change this article into a redirect towards an embedded list of commanders of the unit which the subject is a commander of, as most of the reliable sources that I have found about this article, are about the unit not the unit's commander, as its primary topic.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 06:07, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I think there are very few articles on Wikipedia that would survive your very strict interpretation of the guidelines.Wayne Jayes (talk) 16:43, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Waynejayes:, I have seen several South African military articles come up for AfD recently. Don't know why, but perhaps there are in-depth reliable sources in languages other than English, that might cause difficulty in finding sources in my search. Either way, without meeting the criteria set forth in SOLDIER, or meeting GNG directly, I cannot support retaining this article as a stand alone name in the mainspace. If the reliable sources can be found to verify the subject meets GNG, I would be happy to reconsider my current opinion.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 16:49, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@RightCowLeftCoast I could live with that. BoonDock (talk) 07:34, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have added the 6 South African Infantry Battalion#List of Commanders section to the page and duplicated some of the Gysman info there. Comments appreciated.. BoonDock (talk) 07:45, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Are there past commanders that can be verified?--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 16:49, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - subject has not received "significant coverage" in reliable sources (not a single book reference that I could find and nothing on Scholar). As such he is not notable per the WP:GNG. Also happy with a redirect per RightCowLeftCoast, I guess it might be a valid search time. Anotherclown (talk) 05:03, 11 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect. Lieutenant-colonels, battalion commanders or otherwise, are not usually considered to be notable. The only coverage of him is routine stuff relating to him doing his job. Nothing makes him stand out from the countless thousands of other officers who have held his rank over the centuries. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:38, 12 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect per Necrothesp. I find that this sentence from the article indicates that he is just another mid-rank soldier doing his job competently for his country: "Col Gysman has attended all the required military courses for his rank and post." Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 07:02, 15 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete/Redirect - I'm not seeing the sufficiently significant and multiple independent coverage about the subject. eg The South African Times includes short quotes from the subject, but the article is about the unit not about him. And one of the sources (defenceweb.co.za) is reusing content from another (Grocott's Mail) GraemeLeggett (talk) 19:28, 18 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Notability issue. No sources found besides non reliable magazines. This person is linked to reality show and hasn't done anything remarkable so far. Puda (talk) 21:17, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Sofiane has made it to the official Top 10 in France in SNEP charts from his being featured in The High School Musical in the single "Briser mes chaines" See http://lescharts.com/showitem.asp?interpret=Sofiane&titel=Briser+mes+cha%EEnes&cat=s French charts are a majour chart market. It had a run of 27 weeks on the French charts. He was signed to EMI a majour label as well... In 2012 he had yet another single "Dingue de toi (Nabi...Nabilla)". It stayed 9 weeks on the French singles chart.

• Delete I have been looking on both Google CA and Google FR but could not find anything notable enough besides public.fr, melty.fr and NRJ.fr. Clearly Gossip Magazines. It seems to me that Sofiane has only been successful with "Dingue de toi" since he was dating Nabilla Benattia at the time. And she was extremely popular at the time in France.

My redirect to the band (Anberlin) was reverted by Walter Görlitz, "Notability is established". I beg to differ. The article is a veritable fan piece ("...is known for his powerful, elegant vocal style and wide vocal range") without a single reliable source--I mean, look at the sourcing, it's pathetic, and to list them here is almost an embarrassment. A quick Google search gives nothing else, at least nothing I found that discusses him in a reliable source outside of his band, as is required by WP:BAND, final paragraph--I come to AfD to request community consensus to uphold that guidelines and endorse a redirect. Drmies (talk) 14:25, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Meets WP:GNG that needs to be cleaned up. Walter Görlitz (talk) 14:39, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Walter Görlitz, please cite a single reliable source that discusses him in any significant way outside of the band. "Cleanup" here would require the removal of everything, since there are no reliable sources. Do you really think chatter.myyearbook.com is an acceptable source for a BLP? DYK that there isn't a single live link among that crap in the reference section? Drmies (talk) 15:38, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I cleaned it up, transferred references from some related pages. He also founded a record label and wrote a book...not quite sure how you missed all that Drmies, since it was in the article to start 0_o. Earflaps (talk) 17:45, 13 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

OMG I missed someone having written a book, and they even published it online, by themselves? Stop the press. Seriously, I don't know if you know this, but anyone can publish a book these days through iUniverse, LuLu, etc--and that's what this person did. It's called self-publication. You can do the same with music; anyone can start a record label. Again, I point at the references, and Walter Görlitz, I'm still hoping you'll provide things that count as reliable sources. Dead or not, they need to be reliable. Earflaps, you said "Not every source in an article needs to be reliable, just useful and with an author who can be identified"--that's just incredibly wrong, in more ways than I can count, but I'll count three: yes, they do need to be reliable, no, they don't have to be "useful" (whatever that means), and no, they don't have to have an identifiable author. Really. Drmies (talk) 01:05, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

He has a book, with a Wikipedia page. You're of course free to nominate that for deletion too, but you haven't done so yet, so I have no reason to assume you think it's not notable. And if everything on Wikipedia needed to be reliable, why are we always using Twitter for celebrity announcements, huh? (since twitter is being routinely 'hacked,' or so those same celebrities always claim after they say something stupid). Point is, some references are for fleshing out facts (PR releases can be great for boring info like dates), while others are great for proving notability in a deletion discussion. They don't need to do both at once. Earflaps (talk) 01:16, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it has a Wikipedia page, for now--it's already up for deletion. A self-published book which no one appears to have read. I don't know about you, but I never cite Twitter. You seem to be under some misapprehension: all sources that are cited need to be reliable. All of them. They don't all have to be the New York Times, but they need to be reliable--it's as simple as that. In this case, there are no reliable sources at all--just blogs, zines, whatnot. Drmies (talk) 01:24, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Reliable" is always open to interpretation around here, and many many many essays have been written about the topic. My opinion? Commercial = "reliable" nowadays, which excludes social media entirely. I periodically use social media statements from artist accounts (which is perfectly allowed, I'll find you the wp:alphabet soup if you want it), but I don't consider those sources "reliable." Earflaps (talk) 01:33, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Btw, are you still arguing that no references on this page are reliable, or am I misinterpeting? You did look at it, right? Earflaps (talk) 01:35, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you keep asking me if I looked at something, read this or that, whatever? The only reliable source is this one, and it says nothing about the subject. The only other possibly reliable source is the article from the Sun-Sentinel, but it's dead, and so what it says and how it says it cannot be verified. So yes, I am still arguing that. Also, your opinion about what reliable sources are is irrelevant, and this jibber-jabber about essays is neither here nor there. Why you keep talking about artists' Twitter or social media accounts is unclear to me: the question here is whether something like Chatter.myyearbook.com is reliable. The answer is no. Drmies (talk) 01:52, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The additions I was hoping you would see were AbsolutePunk and ARTISTdirect. 24hour cool down, wanted to apologize for being catty yesterday - afd don't really bring out my best :/ [actually the reason usually just skulk around in graph land]. Did want to point out, Drmies, that while I still believe this nom rationale is absurd, I don't think you are absurd - I've seen your edits improve a lot of pages over at the amusement park project, and never seen you do anything not badass and spot on, excluding this one case. If I may...I noticed you redirect several band member pages at once (most deserved it), and this one may have slipped in as an oversight? We all do it, though food for thought - when I tend to make an oversight in an afd, people will just smack me in the face with a trout and move on. Your account, editors are quite likely to accept your opinion as a precedent, just on reputation; so if you do make a normal mistake, it may be less likely to correct itself.
