"It's EXTREMELY sexist, and doesn't have a single bit of a verifiable source worth half a fuck.

Have the biased author's writings even been peer reviewed? or is he just some hack of a writer trying to promote his own work? This article is utterly worthless." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:405:8402:ABB0:25C3:1926:DA5B:D35A (talk) 18:45, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm completing this nomination for an IP editor, who left this message on the article's talk page: Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:16, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I did complete the AfD nomination, but I'm finding quite a bit of coverage out there and not all of it is from Freund. The coverage isn't overly heavy but it is mentioned in academic texts like this and this. I will note that it is covered in this textbook, where the author comments that there hasn't been a lot of research on the topic. This may be true, but I think that the coverage in the aforementioned books alone should be enough for the topic to pass as a whole. Now whether or not the article needs to be rewritten is another question. I don't see anything that particularly stands out, but then I'm unfamiliar with the topic so I'm going to drop a note at the psychology and sexuality WikiProjects to see if one of them can take a look. Offhand though, this looks to be a notable topic. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:23, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Is this even a serious nomination? The article contains very many RS's, and here is a list of 350 more: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=%22courtship+disorder%22&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C5&as_sdtp= . — James Cantor (talk) 14:01, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Other. Can I suggest here that it might be most appropriate to shorten and merge it with the main article on paraphilias? I'm guessing that's a separate request thingy. As far as the anonymous user's concerns...

1) Is it EXTREMELY sexist? I don't think so and it looks like there was already a lengthy discussion about this in the talk section. Presumably consensus was reached that this article accurately reflects the research on this topic and is not an attempt to make social commentary, or a forum to debate, gender differences in paraphilic disorders.

2) Is there a single bit of a verifiable source worth half a fuck? I'd say every source was worth at least half a fuck. And I was able to verify a lot of them as I don't have to worry about paywalls thanks to working for a university hospital. I felt fairly confident about the ones that weren't available online based on their abstracts, chapter titles and/or how they were referenced in other sources.

3) Have the biased author's writings even been peer reviewed? Yes.

4) Is he just some hack of a writer trying to promote his own work? I'm wondering if Anon saw James Cantor's disclosure on the talk page and maybe overlooked that Cantor said he's the primary author of only one of the citations, in which case, my guess is that Anon is worried that Cantor is actually Freund.

5) Is this article is utterly worthless? I don't think it's worthless, but I do think it's a bit biased towards a hypothesis that fell out of favor during the development of the DSM-5. The term "courtship disorder" is still used, but it doesn't refer to rape anymore, which is an important and widely accepted distinction as evidenced by how it's used in the DSM-5 (2013). I also think it's worth emphasizing that in the DSM, courtship disorder isn't really an "official" name for a category of disorders (as in, it's not listed in the table of contents and doesn't have a subheading in section on paraphilic disorders). It's also never been the name of a diagnosis in either the DSM or the ICD. Within the DSM-5 chapter called Paraphilic Disorders, the phrase "courtship disorder" appears exactly two times and is used to help conceptualize the difference between paraphilias that involve pain and suffering (algolagnic disorders--sexual masochism, sexual sadism, pedophilia, fetishism and transvestism) and those that do not (courtship disorders--voyeurism, exhibitionism and frotteurism). Very intentionally, rape is not attributed to any disorder in the DSM (not even so-called "paraphilic" rape). And it gets zero hits when I ctrl F "rape" in the section of the DSM on Paraphilic Disorders. Maybe it made more sense for this concept to have its own article in 2009 when it had more buzz as some people were arguing for/against adopting it into the DSM-5. At the end of the day, the consensus was to be clear that rape is not considered a diagnosable psychiatric disorder and to give passing mention to 2 subtypes of paraphilias, courtship disorders and algolagnic disorders.

Delete: Multiple searches (Highbeam, Guardian, Google) are not providing evidence of notability for the Rochdale-based firm. (Note there are others of similar name worldwide.)

This is a spam article about a non-notable website which has been speedy deleted six times before as Presskr (now salted), Presskr Classified, Presskr.com and a further three times at Draft:Presskr, and the repeated draft submissions have all been declined. Two WP:SPIs are creating the various identical copies - see User_talk:Legacy2015 and User_talk:Chrish1984 for the messages posted to them, and their contribution histories for the scope of their interests (the only other contributions shown being articles about the founder of the site).

The site itself is non-notable with no reliable third party coverage, just a selection of press releases. The claim that the site "became the most visited website India after six months of operation" is contradicted iby the supplied reference and claims of significance greatly exaggerated (potential audience being quite a different thing from actual audience).

The content of the article is purely about the services the site provides and is entirely promotional in nature ("presskr gained prominence due to its large selection of second-hand item", "items listed on Presskr include electronics, pets, cars and, vehicles and other categories including land and property is absolutely free for everyone" etc.)

This should clearly be speedily deleted again. I am bringing this to AfD because speedy deletion was contested - this time, one of the two users created the article and the other contested the speedy nomination. RichardOSmith (talk) 19:15, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you richard as previous editor wasn't successful with his article therefore he attempt several times but this is his fault but this doesn't meant that the Article is inappropriate.even I agree with Chrish like he said you should also see the similar Olx page that have bunch of issue. I voted for the Article that shouldn't be delete as I saw the article closely even I am 100% sure the Presskr company is legitimate and worthy to be in wikipedia Article.

Dear editor I agree with Ain that the following article is worthy to become encyclopedia the reason is Presskr is legitimate Company as far as I am concerned I think the previous editor was try hard to write article about presskr but unfortunately he wasn't successful after many attempts he made therefore another editor try to write about them so what is yhe problem. If any editor can't successful with their editing skill it's doesn't meant that subject is spamy right lets say I wanna writr about Ebay but several times I got decline from administration which I have lack on my writing skill but o doesn't meant that the company os spamy however they don't even know about it whatever we are discussing here. So I will recommend not to delete Presskr, Inc as the company is legitimate.

Delete - the question is not whether the company is "legitimate" but whether it is notable, and it is very clear that this company is not. The article is very spammy but that can be fixed with editing by people who are not affiliated with the company - the lack of notability and significant coverage in third-party sources cannot be fixed, however. In addition to the three mainspace articles and one draft mentioned in the nomination, there's also Draft:Pressker and Draft:Presskr.com - an interesting online shopping website, the latter of which has not (yet) been deleted. A few other single-purpose editors have also been involved in creating and recreating the articles over the last six months (but that's a question for SPI, not this discussion.) Clear conflict of interest, at any rate, as also shown above. --bonadea contributions talk 11:39, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep at first I would like to clear that I’m not associated nor affiliate with any company including Presskr. However I just would like to create the article about the said subject where people can know about Indian Wikipedia website. There’s several article exists and nobody is considering on them. Here i got some link you might be you wanna consider on them too, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olx.ph https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OLX these article is already exists on Wikipedia but you didn’t show your any interest, i was expecting that Wikipedia welcome & help new editor on their community but i wasn’t expect that there is nobody for helping to each other instead they will pull your legs. As far as i am concerned with due respect Mr talk and talk is only the person who don’t wanna put their effort rather then they find clues to article get deleted.

Keep - she really has received tremendous coverage so she passes via GNG. Her bio tracks all the articles about her. It appears like she spends every waking minute publicly attacking gay people so that is what her bio is going to reflect. If she doesn't like this news coverage, maybe she should do something else with her time.

Keep. The article sourcing seems a little unbalanced in favor of one particular source, PinkNews, but that source doesn't really have a different slant on her than the others, so I don't think this compromises the neutrality of our article. And in any case, she has significant coverage in major news outlets, enough for a clear pass of WP:GNG.

Delete - as mentioned above, and verifiable by the awards websites, none of the award claims seems to be true. Also, several other biographical claims are untrue, or atleast very unlikely (I am not going to elaborate on details here to avoid advice for the possibly next hoax). No sources in article.

Keep Clearly passes WP:COMPOSER; needs better and more references, which I can find extremely easily on Google when I looked so... Instead of deleting, you could always find these not-so-dificult to find citations. Edit: I added liner note citations to all of them. I don't see a need to cite the record sales of them for passing NALBUMS, you can just find that on the album pages. Since the complaints about this article are no longer existent, I propose the AfD end. SanctuaryX^{Stop talking in codes} 02:57, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

But isn't this about a person instead of his recordings? WP:NOTINHERITED I struggle in finding anything more than brief mentions about him. This WP:MUSICBIO guideline is more relevant: "Has been the 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." Liner notes help, but they are not independent sources. Ceosad (talk) 14:39, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I looked a little further and there's actually WP:COMPOSER"Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition." He has several notable compositions in that list.SanctuaryX^{Stop talking in codes} 14:49, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, he seems to be a notable person, and would undoubtedly be notable, but we cannot prove that he is notable. I am worried about depth of coverage that is certainly lacking in any sources I could find. Ceosad (talk) 15:02, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'll see if I can find more references, but you only have to meet a criterion, not all or multiple of them to be considered notable. I had that linking to the wrong page~ Fixed it. Plus, your NOTINHERITED link, doesn't apply because it isn't inherited. You can't inherit something from what you created. That is meant to say that just because a person/thing is notable, not all of their works/associated things are. If a person's works are notable, then that person is notable.WP:COMPOSER.SanctuaryX^{Stop talking in codes} 16:04, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Actually, if they meet any of the criteria of WP:COMPOSER, they may be notable; it doesn't mean they are notable.

The sourcing is pretty much a WP:COATRACK about his father Nadeem Sarwar. - HyperGaruda (talk) 07:26, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion is opposed: Notability is beyond proof if one can read the local news in Pakistan. I have also read the comments of someone on the talk page. Editors pointed out the attention and involvement of concerned community before a neutral action. For your info and knowledge your are invited to watch shia islam portal and its section "in the news" he was accompanied with his father in the British Parliament for mourning sitting. Nannadeem (talk) 15:25, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Nannadeem: I've taken a look at Portal:Shia Islam/News, but neither Facebook nor Twitter are reliable sources, because the content is self-published without editorial supervision. You'll really need more reliable sources about Ali Shanawar to support that he (not his father!) is notable for the (worldwide) Wikipedia community, i.e. beyond his local fanbase. And don't just say that there are sources; you will have to provide the sources here on Wikipedia. - HyperGaruda (talk) 17:07, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know what Noha? Have you read the names of Noha reciters? Have not you noticed that his father's page has already been deleted? Do you have knowledge about this genre and the community likes it. Applying bureaucracy of rules is not the very basis of WP. Please read Wikipedia:Ignore all rules. You must respect the sentiments of a community. The action should be based on comments from concerned community.

Notability: type his name in the google search engine you will see above hundred results - legible in English. Nannadeem (talk) 18:53, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Nannadeem: I'm a Shia Muslim and I don't think this article meets Notibility. He is just popular among Shia Muslims and a few Sunni Muslims. There are no reliable source which shows that he is notable. And some of the content in the article is copied from his website. www.Safeer-E-Aza.com.--Musa Talk 22:30, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your disclosure for your belonging to Shia community and your tag for deletion of page on account of notability of "Ali Shanawar" is a question on your knowledge. Instead of improving the page, you have tagged it for deletion. This is a conflict between some schools of this community and most of them are known as "orthodox".

WP has recently launched a campaign of WP:WAMP for more representation from Asian countries. Deletion of pages is cause of set back to the campaign. The page has no harmful content to our WP. You will notice that many a websites have cited the WP as their source, so we should pride of our WP which is also serving as source for info in respect of Ali Shanawar. Any how, I request you to improve the page as a friend to me and your own community. Thanks Nannadeem (talk) 15:16, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I wanted to improve this article but I found nothing about him so I nominated it for deletion. He is not a notable person. You're trying to save this article because you're fan of Ali Shanawar. I also listen to his Noha's but I don't find him notable.--Musa Talk 18:40, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You are issuing two contradictory statements simultaneously: (1)He is just popular among Shia Muslims and a few Sunni Muslims + (2) He is not a notable person.

Your childish finding of my being a fan of him is denied. You were unable to improve the page thus you decided to tag it for deletion. This is biased action you have done. Thus deletion proposal appears personal and not for goodwill of EN:WP. Nannadeem (talk) 19:24, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I request the deletion admin to close the discussion. The concerned community has already been suffering from due representation. Nannadeem (talk) 19:24, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:Subjective importance and specifically the subsections WP:POPULARITY, WP:FAME and WP:POSITION. Here on Wikipedia, notability is not the same as popularity. By notability we mean that there is significant coverage in reliable and independent sources, in order to prevent fabrications from being formed here. In other words: a short mention somewhere in a news article's margin is not significant; a forum or blog where anyone can post anything, without people correcting your mistakes, is not reliable; Ali's personal website and facebook page are not independent nor reliable, since he could easily write that he's won 5 Grammy Awards, while we all know that is not true. Without reliable sources, an article is not improvable and thus should be deleted. Again, provide reliable sources that have enough to say about Ali if this page should not be deleted. - HyperGaruda (talk) 20:18, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, That is what I was trying to say.--Musa Talk 20:39, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of Nadeem Sarwar

With ref to finding of notability of son and father cited by the page deletion proposer: (and) In order to avoid the flag of OR I am taking liberty of reproducing contents from the feature article published in the Sunday Magazine of the Express Tribune (partner of New York Times) for popularity and notability^[1]:

Not only is Nadeem Sarwar the king of the noha/marsia industry, he is also the most successful artist of the larger music industry as he sells 200,000-300,000 CDs a year and all of them get sold within the span of two days. This is despite the presence of YouTube and downloadable music; no artists has a better business plan or a more loyal fan following,” says Imran (a business man from Rainbow Centre, Karachi)

I further add that while searching info about the persons in question, most of the URLs open the pages for download of Nohas. This is a technical reason as well. Nannadeem (talk) 12:41, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The nominator said it all: this isn't a notable person. The article's citation method is clearly a grasp for straws as many of the citations simply don't support the cited material, as has already been noted by other editors. The only clear source we have is the one from Amazon, which isn't RS. The subject fails the WP:GNG once we look past the improper citation and since that's sort of a threshold, there isn't much else to be said. MezzoMezzo (talk) 03:54, 10 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments: Yes not notable is not notable. This is my stance too, but try to understand that who is here to represent the subject or a particular genre, that is why I am pleading. Please see at WP:NTEMP where it is clear that once a topic has been the subject of "significant coverage" in accordance with the general notability guideline, it does not need to have ongoing coverage.

Oh, I totally agree. One supporting role on a TV series, and one boy band that doesn't seem to have any major notable releases, is still too low notability bar to qualify for an article.

Matt Artisan[edit]

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

No indication of notability per WP:BIO, with no significant coverage online from WP:RS, just lots of mentions on blogs about seduction tactics. Fails WP:NAUTHOR, as he's so far only written a self-published Kindle ebook with no claim of notability per WP:NBOOK and no significant coverage online from WP:RS. Won two awards from the "Dating World Summit", an organization I can't find online, and with no claim to notability. His sole claim to fame seems to be an 8 minute feature on his company on ABC Nightline last month. None of this amounts to a "widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field". Claims of running courses abroad for 7000+ participants are referenced by primary sources, and I can't find reliable secondary sources online to confirm them. His company (with the ABC reference) might be worth a mention in dating coach, but there's not enough here to merit a whole separate article about him.

Looking for more sources, I'm seeing heavy signs of aggressive self-promotion (which is unsurprising, considering) but nothing reliable.

MRC Social, Genetic and Developmental Psychiatry Centre[edit]

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

The main institute is notable, the subdivisions, such as this one, are not. Our practice is to not make articles on institutes within departments within medical schools. We don't usually make for medical school or university departments either, but perhaps the main Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience at, King's College London is notable enough for that--I am not nominating it for deletion at this time. But going further does not seem appropriate. Having articles such as this and the adjacent AfD seems like a PR effort for the University DGG ( talk ) 23:46, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Medical Research Council (MRC) is a publicly funded government agency in the UK, and this (SGDP) is an MRC centre based at the University (instead of an institute within department within a school/faculty). Actually, many MRC centres have their own articles (see, for example, Edinburgh's Scottish Centre for Regenerative Medicine and MRC Human Genetics Unit, and Cambridge's MRC Cancer Unit). (This is my first discussion so sorry if I do this incorrectly.)--Chanpeter (talk) 19:16, 24 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I do not understand it quite that way. It is indeed sponsored by MRC and is one of their centers, but it seems to operate as one of the units of Kings Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience. DGG ( talk ) 06:07, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - So Scottish Centre for Regenerative Medicine, MRC Mitochondrial Biology Unit, MRC Human Genetics Unit, MRC Cancer Unit, etc. should have been deleted if there is a "normal practice"? They (1) ARE operated as one of the units of uni as well; (2) do not have any additional citations. I don't mean those articles should be deleted, but, isn't this double standard? --Chanpeter (talk) 17:06, 3 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

that there are others, n't mean we should have articles on them all, and it doesn't even mean that the articles on the others are appropriate. I take a look at them also. WP:N is pretty clear that even for subjects that would technically meet the definition of notability, they can also be combined in an article on a broader subject. That's especially true when there is only 1 ref that isn't from their own website, and the ref is actually to a particular grant for a specific part of this center.

AfDs for this article:

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

Per WP:NEOLOGISM. The article has already been through two AfDs (deleted the first time and redirected to Ban (law) the second) and a deletion review (which upheld the decision). I would also be open to the idea of merging and redirecting it to Ban (law) (once again) or Block (Internet), though if we were to go that route, I would lean towards the latter article. Graham (talk) 06:47, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Block (Internet) or delete. It's imperfect, but Block (Internet) is pretty much the same thing. This seems more applicable to Wiktionary or Urban Dictionary. It surely gets used in reliable sources, but so do lots of other phrases. Merely being used doesn't make a neologism notable. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 09:52, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect back to Block (Internet). Seeing how the sourcing remains the same as before, the article has not been significantly expanded to show notability or warrant a split. It seems a section at most in the Block article would be sufficient for the size of content in question. I am unclear why the article was restored after the AfD otherwise. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 13:21, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Chicago is an internationally famous global city, which is the rarefied "elite" class of cities in which we do accept the city council as an office that satisfies WP:NPOL — while it's certainly true that not all of her colleagues actually have articles yet, by far the majority do. The article definitely needs some improvement, I won't argue with that — but it already isn't entirely unsourced, further sourceability is definitely attainable, and a valid claim of notability is present.

Keep I think any modern Chicago alderman would satisfy the GNG with ease. (And even for 19th century aldermen, I would bet that significant material exists in print.) Victor Grigas has already shared some of the sources that are available in this specific case. A proper article on the political history of Chicago would be too broad to include biographies on any individual aldermen, so a merge is not a good idea.

Non-notable individual lacking support for claims. reddogsix (talk) 01:21, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Mr Gianluca Minieri recently has been nominated most influential trader in the financial Markets and is a vital source for Finance Universities to understand the work mr Minieri has done and must have a knowledge of him as an individual and his background as a university course requirement. Furthermore Mr Gianluca has been featured on Bloomberg financial magazines almost every month now and is a key topic for financial researchers and Bankers. His work has a an immediate effect on the global markets of Asia, Europe and America. He is a key individual with more then sufficient references of importance through the hundreds of interviews and Financial newspapers and magazine interviews on such well known website like Trading Desk, Bloomberg and many others. Interviewers and journalist find great use in this page in order to understand his work carried out. Likewise we, the university association of Finance request that this page is kept as wikipedia is a source of great importance to our alumni and Mr Gianluca is a key element in not only student research but Working colleagues and financial market associates as a whole. Thank you Please note all research was done from articles and references are currently published and researched.

Delete as News, Books, browsers and Highbeam all found links but essentially all trivial mentions. SwisterTwister talk 05:19, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - It is an obvious fact that articles will be partially talking about Mr Minieri as he is not a singer or actor but Executive vice president and global head of Trading In a trading bank. in the world of finance magazines rely on multiple opinions of traders but Mr Minieri has been nominated One of the most influential traders of 2015 making him a key subject in the study of finance and the markets. No banker or in fact trader will have an article of his own as for people in the banking industry there is no interest in an extremely long biography but rather on the individual as well as his work and opinions of others. This Article is key in the studies of Journalists for interviews, students at university level and traders. As you can see if you were to read articles about other top traders on wikipedia trivial mentions will always be the case but for sure to not signify non importance of an individual as in Trading magazines like Bloomberg where mr minieri was featured It is a normal custom to talk partially about him/her. The links and references are for use of confirming the status of the individual like mr Minieri and confirming the claimed work he has done. Furthermore Financial magazines like Bloomberg do not decide to write articles regarding any person but only key individuals of interest which is why Mr Minieri was Chosen. With no doubt I support that this article should be kept and all required information was provided in order to keep it active.

Comment - Unfortunately, if there are only trivial mentions of the individual, he will not meet the criteria for inclusion into Wikipedia. Valid support per Wikipedia guidelines is the key to an individual's notability. reddogsix (talk) 17:24, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -There are not only trivial mentions but if someone actually went through the links it would be very obvious that that is not the case. All references are current and active, they are genuine from large important publishers. there are articles about Mr Minieri only. Wikipedia is a place where articles for use of students and professionals must be uploaded which can be of their interest and of use. We for a fact know this individual is a key source of research in the financial market. I would like to bring this matter forward to a supervisor possibly as I do feel this time there is absolutely no attempt to take my request and opinion into consideration nor anyone is actually reading what I am writing. I think this ignorant attitude from wikipedia is shameful and as a major supporter and donator the site I think it is a shameful behaviour and I will be talking to the university association in order to bring consequences forward in terms of stop donations. Subsequently what I am saying is not that someone can upload what he/she wants when he/she makes donations but in my case I am responsible of teaching finance, I have included all needed and required references, and I know this individual is key in the financial market, I should have the right to upload this article. It is not my fault that whom is in the office like the wikipedia administrators have no knowledge of bankers and traders but it is understandable as you work in a different sector. As much as you people know about Justin Bieber and other singers and actors, for us these are our individuals of importance which benefit hundreds of people and it is unfair that working people an students must suffer consequences of the lack of knowledge regarding these individuals from wikipedia. I wish you take this matter forward if possible with whoever is responsible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by YourJames100 (talk • contribs) 19:41, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Do you really think making threats will help you case? There are no supervisors in Wikipedia, this is a community driven encyclopedia. If you are not aware of that I would question your knowledge and subsequent "donations" to Wikipedia. Since you created the article, you have the WP:BURDEN to provide reliable support for the article, something you have failed to do. I would also strongly suggest you read WP:UNCIVIL and WP:LEGAL before responding further. reddogsix (talk) 22:39, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - There is no threat being made, your lack of knowledge is a threat to this site. This is perfect proof that you do not read what I am writing.

Comment - A comment like, "I will be talking to the university association in order to bring consequences forward in terms of stop(sic) donations" certainly is a threat.

On the one hand, I'm seeing good secondary sources which reference Minieri as an expert, but on the other these tend to be brief mentions and I've not been able to find anything particularly substantive which suggests he is specifically notable as an individual.

With all honesty I dont still understand what else wikipedia could possibly want. Mr minieri is a banker and trader, not a singer or actor. It is very different in terms of searching for sources. The amount of sources this page has are mpre then can be found onany banker and in my opinion do demonstarte his status and importance. On the other hand this article is of great use to students like us. What else can be done, can you kindly look for links as well to help keep this page up. We really need it.

Delete. No indication of notability. Pburka (talk) 14:59, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. This looks to be related to this AfD. Ultimately as far as I can tell, this is a similar situation and looks to be a fanfiction based on this movie, given that it contains the same fanfiction OC that they created in the other AfD. I'm going to go ahead and give the editor a WP:NOTHERE block since they seem to have a very long history of adding fanfiction works to Wikipedia, such as Transformers Infected and Transformers : The ROBLOXIAN War. Basically, they've had plenty of warnings that adding fanfiction to Wikipedia is inappropriate. They haven't been active since November, but that they've done this for a while gives off the strong impression that they may likely return to re-add this later on. I think that I'll likely close this one early since there's really no chance that this series will pass notability guidelines. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 08:40, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to be autobiography oradvertisement, low notability. JamesG5 (talk) 07:52, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Not an autobiography, as I'm not him, nor is it an advertisement. A little WP:AGF couldn't hurt though. As for notability the only folks I've worked on in the BLP space have been actors so I'm not going to pretend I'm 100% sure what the threshold for business people are. But he's an active guy in the area, and he writes / gets asked his opinion on business matters a lot, most specifically on the subject of Ukraine. PeRshGo (talk) 08:04, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- As several of the sources were his own articles it looked like a self promotion piece, my apologies on that point.JamesG5 (talk) 08:05, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  - I just threw those two in on the end as writing examples, if you think it's better with out them they can go. PeRshGo (talk) 08:09, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    - That goes back to notability, then, as it leaves a single credible source (NBC) and a PR site. A google search shows very little about him that's not tied to his company. I note also that you created a page for the company Company_Folders as your first action on Wikipedia. I hate to strain WP:AGF but this does seem like promotion.JamesG5 (talk) 08:18, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      - I've been editing Wikipedia for nearly a decade. That was not my first action on Wikipedia. In addition that would leave two credible sources, NBC, and DBusiness, in addition to the marketing company site which while questionable by merit of being a marketing company, really isn't writing him a promo article at all. But that being said if you think it isn't worthwhile it can be pulled and replaced with another article. That one just seemed to be a more interesting one. PeRshGo (talk) 08:33, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        Apologies again, for some reason your contribs list is showing your first as being making a page for that company. The DBusiness link wasn't there when I made that comment, just the Promodo link which is what I was referring to. Just still not sure why the owner of a local small business that makes office supplies is notable.JamesG5 (talk) 08:43, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        To me I figured that as a writer alone or as a business owner alone he probably wouldn't meet the notability threshold but together he might. Truth is, this was a first shot to see if I could get some of the more active business guys around the Detroit area Wikipedia pages. Seems like this region is woefully under represented, and I thought, wow this guy writes a lot and his company has a distinction within that specific market (they make a lot of the print collateral for the big 3 and some other major companies) maybe he'd make the cut. Probably if I wouldn't have included those articles written by him at the end he would have. But AfDs tend to favor the deletionists and the BLP realm is a pain to start with. PeRshGo (talk) 08:53, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        I guess if I want to see this thing through to the end, and given I spent the better part of the evening working on this I might as well, my argument has to be that if a bunch of publications see him as notable enough to interview, does that not make him notable enough for our purposes? PeRshGo (talk) 08:56, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        Well, last thought I'll add in that regard is that on WP:Notability it talks about standalone pages. Assuming this guy and his company are notable enough to be on Wikipedia I can't imagine why they would have separate pages. At the very least I'd argue they should be merged with either a bio on him as part of the company page or a blurb on the company as part of his page. My opinion, let's see what others think.JamesG5 (talk) 09:02, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
        I'll also throw out there that clicking the links above it seems he's cited in a few books as well. Not a ton but for his field it's pretty good PeRshGo (talk) 09:24, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It seems the deletes are having this one, even if some of them are erroneously assuming bad faith. That being said I'd still like to work on covering some of the Metro Detroit business guys on Wikipedia, so before this gets closed out, if someone could direct me to any good information on what the notability threshold is on business people, either here or on my talk page I'd appreciate it.

The result was move to Draft space. Dkendr is correct, this discussion has gone on long enough, I don't see another relist as giving us much more. The consensus is that at this time, the subject doesn't meet notability criteria, however there is potential. So move to draft space it is. I suggest using the Articles for Creation process to get assistance in improvement there. The page can now be found at Draft:Melinda Hill. kelapstick^(bainuu) 21:33, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The subject is short of Wikipedia's notability criteria (WP:ENTERTAINER) and essentially received an extra degree of attention after a game show appearance - article would be more appropriate as a section in an article regarding contestants on said game show.

Comment. I've completed this nomination and added the rationale, based on Dkendr's edit summary[5]. They are, of course, invited to expand on their rationale.

Keep. There is nothing wrong with this wikipedia page and it should not be deleted. All info is cited and referenced correctly.

It is within the acceptable guidelines and standards of wikipedia to remove such content. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion This statement is incorrect vandalism: "Hill's America's Got Talent appearance was notable for her complete failure. She bombed so thoroughly that the judges were not even motivated to activate their buzzers to end her set early.[11]" Statement is not factual and is meant to cyber-bully a living person with inaccurate and undocumented slander.

Yeah, I removed the complete failure line - this is a BLP, after all. As for the rest? Look, you and Dkendr have gone back and forth on this article for more than a week now, getting nowhere - and all while coming dangerously close to an edit war. Let's see if the AFD gets more eyes on the article, and perhaps we can get some of these problems sorted one way or the other. The first step should really have been the talk page, but this works as well. So, @Dkendr:, how's about you and this IP editor stop reverting the article and see what other editors think?

~~Delete~~ (iVote is nomination -- Jreferee (talk) 05:31, 7 December 2015 (UTC)) : Subject fails the notability test, page patrolled by a sock puppet. I do want to add that I put a "delete for notability" tag on the page... and it was deleted with no supporting edits... Dkendr (talk) 17:16, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

weak keep : By most metrics I question the "notability" of someone with such low-level (online videos, podcasts, uncredited appearances, etc.) show biz accomplishments, and yet the subject appears to meet wikipedia's much more lax notability standards by providing references that indicate some degree of independent press coverage, even though that press (online interviews and free "alternative" weekly entertainment guides) strikes me as borderline non-trivial. Certainly wikipedia has allowed notability status for pages that have provided less back up, so why should this page be any different?

weak delete: Technically it fail entertainer notability criteria. At first glance does seem to have a diverse and active career, however in reality they all look like bit parts/extra roles.

Keep. Notable performer, talented, she appeared on the Craig Ferguson show. My unofficial test of pageviews is averaging about 30/40 per day, sometimes spiking, here, and while of course it is unofficial, for me it usually is an indication of notability. Some coverage here, but sources in article now, such as this ind-depth one, and this one suggest she meets the WP:GNG although admittedly there is a much extra junk in the article.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 02:24, 30 November 2015 (UTC)--Tomwsulcer (talk) 02:36, 30 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

"Talented" is subjective. The "Secretariat" character was on Ferguson more often, should it have a page? If she is notable for hosting a show then the show might qualify and this article could be included in it. Dkendr (talk) 03:05, 2 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - at least as a standalone biography article since the topic Melinda Hill has not received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources (see nutshell at Wikipedia:Notability (people)). That is, there are not enough reliable secondary sources, independent of the topic, to written an account of Melinda Hill's life. While the article includes basic facts regarding her career, the Wikipedia article does not include life events or even portray her experience of these life events since none of the Wikipedia reliable secondary sources cover such information. As such, the topic cannot be maintained as a biography and should be deleted. The information would be more appropriate as a section in an article regarding contestants on the game show -- Jreferee (talk) 05:31, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - once blogs are excluded, there is almost no coverage of this person. Appearance on a single game show is definitely below the (very low) GNG threshold, and the existence of blogs discussing that same game show does not confer notability. If this person receives more coverage then reliable sources will emerge; for now it is at best WP:TOOSOON. Delete as not notable. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:21, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps draft and userfy so delete for now as there may be enough coverage for even a marginally acceptable article but there could be better coverage and I'm seeing that so far so drafting and userfy may beneficial for a future article. SwisterTwister talk 06:07, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, apart from the original editor and what could easily be a bit of sockpuppetry, there don't seem to be any reasons to keep this article. Userfying and waiting for new sources is however not unreasonable. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:17, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This does seem to be the fairest approach to retaining the content for future revival if warranted and maintaining notability policy. Dkendr (talk) 05:53, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I agree with the nominator. There are a lot of trivial mentions, local news and event listings used as sources here. Of note: if you go to the articles on the works she's done where she was not cast as "herself", almost none have her name in the article. If anything (and this is a stretch) she may be encyclopedic for her two shows, but there's little of encyclopedic value here beyond that. That's not to say she's not talented, I'm sure she is, but Wikipedia is not IMDb. I would suggest redirecting to one of the articles but I can't determine which, so search results would be better. No prejudice against moving to draft space if someone wants to work on it, but frankly I don't think there's any merit. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 21:19, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Lola LC88[edit]

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

Per request of Robert McClenon and CambridgeBayWeather. This is one of two articles on cars of this period, the Lola LC87 and the Lola LC88. Both articles depend on a handful of deadlinks and sources seen as unacceptable. See Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Lola LC87 (2nd nomination). This article was listed there too: as both articles suffer exactly the same failings, they stand or fall together.

That MfD has now closed as delete. However for bureaucratic reasons, an MfD was seen as having no scope over an article, hence this AfD. Andy Dingley (talk) 02:12, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The article on 87 was proposed for deletion for having no references. This article does have references. If the proponent of deletion thinks that the references are inadequate, they may make that statement as the reason for deletion. The two articles are not comparable, in that one was referenced and the other was not. If the deleted article can be properly referenced, it can be resubmitted, either preferably via Articles for Creation or directly into mainspace. If this article is not properly referenced, then it should be deleted, but I think that it is properly referenced. Your opinion may vary. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:40, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

They were both referenced, and using the same sites. LC87 didn't use inline citations to them, but that in itself would be no good reason. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:51, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The Lola LC87 was entirely unreferenced but had some external links which were not the same as the references on the LC88 page. The LC87 was of poor quality and ungrammatical, drafted by an IP editor well known to the F1 project as disruptive through submitting similar poor quality drafts via talk-pages, and adding unreferenced text to articles. The LC88 (where the referencing did need improving...which it already has been to an extent) was added to the MfD mentioned above on the basis of 'well if the Lola LC87 is proposed for deletion..then what about this one'. There is no reason why this article should be deleted, the car passes notability and the page has references. This proposal should not be seriously considered. Eagleash (talk) 10:30, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

So you admit that the LC87 article wasn't deleted for any reason of notability (both of these cars are tenuous for that) or for referencing (the LC87 had just had the same book references added to it, and not by one of these heinous IP editors), but just for "other" reasons. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:37, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The LC87 page was edited entirely by the IP (35 different addresses since September) editor apart from some attempts to reference it by Andy, which added no in-line citations. Both cars pass F1 project notability, ~~all~~ most F1 cars do. & the LC87 draft has already been salvaged and is being worked upon. Project members could have fixed the draft, but why should we? (Andy didn't) We kept away from the debate in view of the history as we've fixed literally dozens of articles in the past & our patience with this editor has run out. His edits are WP:TE paragraph 2.7 as sources have never been provided. The page was deleted because it was poor quality, after it was rejected via AfC several times Eagleash (talk) 11:02, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The place to deal with a tendentious editor is never by revenge article deletions at MfD. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:24, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There was no question of revenge. Editors from the F1 project kept away from the debate for that very reason. The article was judged as poor quality by the reviewer who subsequently tagged it for deletion. Eagleash (talk) 20:52, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

On another point, and in the interests of clarity and any future discussions, it has been suggested that to say 'all' F1 cars would pass notability may not be precisely accurate, with which I agree. I have therefore amended my comment above, whilst leaving the original wording in place. Eagleash (talk) 01:34, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Everything has to pass GNG and I believe this does, or it certainly will do once I gain access to my source material in a few weeks. The LC87 article was deleted because, unlike all this IP's other produce, we didn't clean it up or rewrite it. Nothing vengeful about it – we just got tired of fixing up his rubbish. Someone else outside the project nominated it for deletion and we just didn't step in to save it. We are not obliged to fix articles just because we can. Regarding the notability of F1 cars, I do not believe that all F1 cars are inherently notable, but the majority have more than enough source material out there to pass GNG. It's just a case of putting it all together. Both the LC87 and LC88 can pass GNG without any bother. Bretonbanquet (talk) 01:51, 8 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - There's enough out there to get this past the GNG. Whether or not the LC87 should have been kept or deleted is irrelevant; it can always be recreated later if it too passes GNG. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 12:38, 13 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

John Painter (supercentenarian)[edit]

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

There's no indication that there is enough significant coverage of reliable sources for a separate article on Mr. Painter. Of the three sources here, I added the GRG table M that reiterates his birth, death, age and ranking as world's oldest man. The City Paper is an obituary showing essentially WP:ROUTINE local coverage of his death (even though it had a statement from the Governor). The other source is his local congressman congratulating him on his 112 birthday which given the way the Congress Record is full of these kinds of things is almost WP:ROUTINE coverage as well. Both notably were based on his significance as the oldest Tennessee which was later learned to be incorrect for what that means. I think per WP:NOPAGE we should redirect the page to List of the verified oldest men and the actual details about here could be made into a mini-biography there (List of supercentenarians from the United States has nineteen at the moment).

Keep And so the never ending deletion spree continues. This man was not recognised as the oldest living man until after his death, so naturally there isn't as much coverage for him as we typically see for other former world's oldest men, but does that make the achievement any less significant? No. I've added some more sources in to the article although it might need a clean up. -- Ollie231213 (talk) 01:54, 26 November 2015 (UTC) This editor has made few or no other edits outside this topic.[reply]
Extremely Weak keep/leaning merge Being one of five people in a state of 6 million or so to have been awarded France's highest honour would certainly merit consideration of an article. A Keep rationale would have a stronger case if it was made cleared as to why Mr Painter was awarded the honour. I'm not looking for feats like Charles Upham, but there surely should be something. Excepting his war service, the article actually weakens his claim for a standalone article as he came from a family of long lived individuals. Blackmane (talk) 12:48, 29 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There are other times when it is better to cover notable topics, that clearly should be included in Wikipedia, as part of a larger page about a broader topic, with more context. A decision to cover a notable topic only as part of a broader page does not in any way disparage the importance of the topic... Sometimes, a notable topic can be covered better as part of a larger article, where there can be more complete context that would be lost on a separate page... Sometimes, several related topics, each of them similarly notable, can be collected into a single page, where the relationships between them can be better appreciated than if they were each a separate page... Sometimes, when a subject is notable, but it is unlikely that there ever will be a lot to write about it, editors should weigh the advantages and disadvantages of creating a permanent stub.

Merge to List of supercentenarians from the United States and create a redirect as a plausible search term - Per WP:NOPAGE and WP:PERMASTUB, we should try to avoid creating articles which will never grow beyond stubs. As to the question of whether the Légion d'honneur confers automatic notability, WP:SOLDIER has a footnote that in the event of the nation's highest valor decoration having multiple grades or classes, only the highest military grade qualifies.

Actually, lost to history is that fact that AfD was originally "Articles for Discussion" -- it gradually came to be called Deletion because that's 98% of the traffic here. I thought about making these proposals on the article talk pages, as you suggest, but several other editors felt that the increased visibility/transparency of AfD might be preferable, given the long sorry history of longevity topics. But you're the second or third editor to make the same suggestion recently, so I'm reconsidering. Thanks. EEng (talk) 21:07, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Where is this lost to history? It has always been my understanding that this forum was initially referred to as Votes for Deletion and was later renamed to Articles for Deletion. I was not aware this was ever referred to as Articles for Discussion. The option to merge is an editorial decision which can be dealt with on the respective talk page. As to your question of relevancy, I am afraid we disagree. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 01:18, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

At the risk of stating the obvious, if I could remember where it's lost to history, then it wouldn't be lost to history, would it? Maybe I'm thinking of TfD, which really is "Templates for discussion". EEng (talk) 02:29, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In this case I believe you are simply mistaken. A name change of that magnitude would not be lost to history, and I don't see how it would be possible given the nature of how Wikipedia operates. A cursory search shows that a renaming was proposed in ~2009 but consensus was not reached. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 20:52, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
