Delete. Fails PORNBIO as the nominator states. Fails GNG without significant coverage by multiple independent reliable sources. The references in the article are generally low quality.

I'm going to say weak keep on this. The fact that the nominator would even bring up that it might be notable and improvable raises a red flag, then you have the fact that it does have decent references establishing notability. Again, I don't like that this may have been an autobiography, and it does kind of read like a promotional resume, but that's not enough for me to say delete. Not So Dumb Blond (talk) 01:29, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think the article is too promotional, but perhaps a scaled-down version would be worth keeping. weak keep Thoughtfortheday (talk) 11:26, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep - I agree with what's been said above; the article needs a bit of a rewrite. There's no doubt it started as an autobiography (see the talk page) but the subject does satisfy WP:GNG and as such is both notable and improvable. Note to closing admin: I happen to know the subject personally (although we haven't met for 15 or so years!) so feel free to disregard my opinion if you feel that constitutes a COI.

Links this, this, this and this all suggest this has gotten coverage and one of the browser links here particularly mentions this was one of John Donovan's most famous companies and I was actually going to boldly redirect this to his article but I'm not sure if this can be better improved or what because the current version would certainly need it (this article actually began in June 2006 as a redirect to Novell where it is currently mentioned as well at John J.

I'm with the others on this. This is a keeper because it's been noted in reliable sources and therefore meets the notability standards for inclusion.

Keep Yes, this looks like a notable and complex enough topic that this article should be expanded instead of merged. In August some information was removed that actually looks verifiable, saying that it was spun off from Novell in 2008 and became part of a different company in 2014.

Delete Does not meet notability criteria for martial artists or WP:GNG If he had won a Gold medal at the the World Taekwondo Championships in 2007 and 2009 as claimed that would be different but in both those events he is not listed as a medal winner nor is there a medal winning African team.

Delete Notability claims seem to be based on the success of one of his students and being inducted into a taekwondo hall of fame.

Keep - Shirahama has received significant coverage in pretty much all the major entertainment press outlets in Japan. Here are just some pieces that have his name in the title of the article: [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19], [20], [21], etc. Part of his fame is due to his scandal with Minami Minegishi, part of it is due to his being the younger brother of the model Loveli, but now most of it is due to him being the leader of a band with a number one single. The press treats him as the leader and he receives much coverage about him as a single person. It is debatable whether he passes WP:MUSIC or WP:NACTOR, but he easily passes WP:GNG. Michitaro (talk) 13:57, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the links, they are quite useful. Especially if the article should be redirected and inserted into the main page. There is currently no mention of any scandal? This would indeed add notability. Something needs to be added otherwise it will simply go to a redirect of an AfD again. Karst (talk) 06:43, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There are some English sources on Shirahama's role in the scandal, since it was reported worldwide (see the Minegishi article): [22], [23], etc., though not all of them are as reliable as the major news sources I cited from the Japanese press.

The title of the article is a commercial protologism; there is insufficient evidence yet of notability. (The article was prodded shortly after creation, but the prod message was removed.) --Lambiam 21:58, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Boxers - Hmmm. I've been keeping an eye on this article out of curiosity. Not surprised it came to AFD. There was a lot of international media flurry in July 2015. At least two French articles - [24], [25]; Italian [26], Indonesian [27], and Dutch [28], alongside dozens of English language articles. So there was definitely a flurry of international interest in mid-July, but it is clearly too soon and pretty much equivalent to a single event. Enough for a mention in Boxers at this point, but let's see if they're still getting coverage a year or so later. For now, merge and if they continue the way they've started, then an article sounds like a good idea, but for now - TOO SOON. Mabalu (talk) 22:29, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The media attention echoed the info in their press kit and was clearly due to the curiosity value, but, as far as I can tell, the product is not in production. You can "preorder" one via their website for $29.99, but the Indiegogo campaign ended with 12% of its goal and only 81 backers, so there is room for doubt that this will ever enter production. --Lambiam 10:34, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Tolly Burkan[edit]

AfDs for this article:

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

A recent set of back-and-forth mini edit wars have made me look a bit deeper into the subject and the sources available for this article. In all of the online sources (and from what little I have seen of the offline sources) Burkan commands no significant coverage. 95% of the coverage is mentioning him as starting the corporate-training firewalking business and offering little else. I still cannot find one of the offline sources listed on the page, but the others are in a similar vein to the online sources. Burkan seems to have done little to attract public attention, and while he may be well-known, he does not appear to meet the notability criteria for Wikipedia. I am, however, willing to be convinced otherwise, should more appropriate sources be revealed. Primefac (talk) 19:42, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I feel almost sorry that abuse (conflict of interest, and neutrality) of the page has directly lead to this -- but the abuse seems to point out an underlying issue.

Delete One can be respected and notable in their field without being notable enough for an encyclopedia entry. This appears to be the case here. There are references, but those are passing mentions or endorsements of businesses. A teacher does not inherit the notability of one of their students; i.e. the talk page claim of "I taught Tony Robbins!" There are google hits, but mostly for speaking engagements and public appearances for commercial ventures in a specific field. What we don't see is independent, third party sources writing about the subject, and that is what establishes encyclopedic notability. On that basis, the subject fails WP:GNG. Oh, and someone should check the talk page, as there is a post claiming to be the subject, with personal contact details and such that should perhaps be REVDEL'ed Scr★pIron^IV 15:25, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment there is a rather lengthy post from Burkan posted on this AFD's talk page. If Mr. Burkan reads this, I would like his honest opinion on whether those articles specifically talk about him, or simply mention him as the instructor of a course/ideology/etc. Primefac (talk) 18:25, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Much as I hate to say it, I really do not believe we should take the subject's word for his own notability. This individual has played with sockpuppets and IP's to edit war content into this article, and is clearly biased do to his WP:COI. I am not averse to a re-examination of the sources, but I would not blithely take his word for it. I don't doubt for a moment that he is a major contributor to the (sport?)/(event?) of firewalking, but there is nothing that conveys notability beyond it. At best, the minimal content in this article should be merged into the firewalking article. Scr★pIron^IV 19:35, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hold on. I would like to question the due diligence of voters-deleters. A quick google search immediately revealed two quite reputable sources with significant coverage:
- National Geographic
- full 3 pages in a book on firewalking, Princeton University Press, no less.

I see the deadline is up already, but IMO the article is salvageable. - üser:Altenmann >t 05:53, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[ABC Science whatever it is for the Aussies

Edwards, Emily D. “Firewalking: A Contemporary Ritual and Transformation.” TDR 42 (1998): 98-114. -- Independent analysis of Burkan's seminars
Mythbusters - Firewalking 101
"The Encyclopedia of Religious Phenomena"

Conclusion. And I went only thru 10 first page of google hits. Whoever the alleged POV pushers for Burkan are, they were doing an extremely sloppy work with the article. The person is notable beyond any doubt in my rather skeptical mind. The statement "Burkan seems to have done little to attract public attention" is provably incorrect, as you see from my very limited cross-section: even Mythfreakingbusters had fun with him - if this does not count for public attention, then I don't know what else you want (Kardashian firewalking naked?). - üser:Altenmann >t 06:44, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. to my considerable surprise, he does seem to be a notable in his special version of spirituality. I've read some of the academic work -- the Princeton University Press book and the discussion in the article from TDR/The Drama Review (a MIT Press journal), is sufficient to show that, toghether with the National Geographic and the rest. These are more than mentions--he seems a prominent representative of his movement, and the coverage makes him notable. The other sources he mentions might add to ti--I haven;t checked them, because I consider that what I did check shows notability. I have said many times that I consider the GNG subject to misuse, but it does have a place sometimes when dealing with unfamiliar subjects of subjects that people here are not accustomed to take seriously. Primefac, I think the evidence answers your rationale of "Burkan seems to have done little to attract public attention, and while he may be well-known..."-- he has attracted a good deal of public attention. Anyway, a person can not be well known without having attracted public attention. You probably meant "public attention in reliable sources that we consider suitable for showing notability" But these sources are unquestionably reliable. I'm not happy with articles showing this degree of COI,but it does genuinely add to the encycopedia . DGG ( talk ) 10:02, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Job skirt[edit]

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

Have done a search for sources, but can't find anything beyond this article to show that a job skirt is a thing. Although technically it's well-written and appropriately toned, it does seem a bit How To and subjective/personal opinion. The searches I did by phrase pulled up a LOT of hits for "job. Skirt" (where a sentence ends with "job" and skirt is the first word in the following sentence). I looked up a related phrase I KNEW was definitely a "thing", interview suit, and see it ended up being redirected to Suit (clothing). Mabalu (talk) 16:09, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There is so little here, and what there is is largely nonsensical mistranslation. (How can a company in Tokyo "do Chapter 11"?) Imaginatorium (talk) 08:53, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep First, this was a publicly traded company, with its stock listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange ([29]--it was listed in the First Section, which is only for large corporations), the Japanese equivalent of the NYSE. It's no mom and pop company. As WP:LISTED says, "There has been considerable discussion over time whether publicly traded corporations, or at least publicly traded corporations listed on major stock exchanges such as the NYSE and other comparable international stock exchanges, are inherently notable. Consensus has been that notability is not automatic in this (or any other) case. However, sufficient independent sources almost always exist for such companies, so that notability can be established using the primary criterion discussed above." In fact, it adds: "Editors coming across an article on such a company without such references are encouraged to search (or request that others search) prior to nominating for deletion, given the very high (but not certain) likelihood that a publicly traded company is actually notable according to the primary criterion." That said, there is sufficient independent coverage out there to pass notability criteria: [30], [31], [32], [33], [34], [35], [36], etc. What makes it a bit harder to find articles is that the company has changed its name to Helios Techno Holding Co., Ltd., which has also taken over its slot on the TSE (number 6927). Thus more recent coverage tends to be about that company, not about Phoenix ([37], [38], [39], [40], [41], etc.; in English: [42], [43], etc.). Phoenix now exists as a subsidiary and a brand name. Not only does the article need to be updated, but perhaps it might be best to change the name of the article. The Japanese Wikipedia has articles on both companies, but the Helios article (ja:ヘリオス_テクノ_ホールディング), basically treats it as a continuation of Phoenix. Anyway, this easily passes WP:CORP.

Redirect to Deltora Quest (series) or Deltora Quest 2. Individual books do not inherit notability from the series themselves being notable, especially when you have a series that is known for having a fairly large amount of books, which the Deltora Quest series as a whole does. This could redirect to the specific Deltora Quest 2, however I note that this page lacks coverage in reliable sources to show where this trilogy is specifically notable outside of the main series. Just as individual books do not inherit notability, the trilogies or sagas that occur within long running series also do not inherit notability and the main reason for the trilogy page to have an article would be to decrease the load from the main series page, although I think that this information could mostly be summed up fairly well. However that's not the focus of this AfD, the specific book is and I can find nothing to show that this individual book has received any coverage in independent or reliable sources per WP:RS. This is pretty common when you have series with a large amount of books because there's usually just too many for most outlets to review. It can happen, but it's usually with overwhelmingly notable series like Diary of a Wimpy Kid where the release of the books are a major event. Chapter books like Deltora Quest usually get released with little fanfare because they're released at such a breakneck pace. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 13:14, 16 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Incorporate into Deltora Quest 2. I'm not normally one who likes to see pages deleted for any reason but I'd make an exception in this case. A check of the series page indicates there is more plot summary information listed there than on this page. I agree that the three books in the series were released in quick succession all around the novella or short-novel length. In fact Austlit lists a later publication of the three books in the one volume in 2007, totaling 373pp, which would lead you to believe that is their natural state.

Weak Keep This is a difficult one as there is a lot of mirrored reporting. She is in business promotion so press clearly seems to be promotional, but, she is notable. She has been recognized twice by her industry's International Board. 1996 Fellow and 2006 Meritorious. Yes, I realize those are primary sources, but the only way to get around whether they are all mirrors is to go to the primary source in this case. The Meritorious entry shows that it is not a rote annual award, but is given only when the board feels service is exemplary, thus to my mind it carries heavier weight than an annual award that must have a recipient. As DGG pointed out, it is a relatively small field and yet, she has numerous citations by scholars of her work [44] stretching over several decades. SusunW (talk) 14:36, 19 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Valereee. She's certainly one of the most notable authors in Denmark at the moment. The problem is you are searching in English-language sources. If you search in Danish you will find many references in the large-circulation national newspapers such as Berlingske and Politiken. For example:

She also received a very positive introduction in the English-language Danish Literary Magazine (Autumn 2013). See the write-up on Page 28 here

I could give you many, many more citations in Danish if you cannot find them yourself. I only devoted a short article to Olga Ravn at this stage but it could well be expanded. I am up to my neck with an editathon on women architects at the moment but I can see there's quite a bit more we could add to the article on Ravn.--Ipigott (talk) 13:44, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ipigott I'm totally willing to take your word for it; it might be good to include these other references when you've unburied yourself? :) I did go to the two currently listed and they looked like simple listings of writers rather than evidence of notability. valereee (talk) 13:58, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep by lack of "credible references", I meant the lack of in-line third-party citation at that particular moment of time (and apparently still true). Also in the same edit summary, I mentioned that the company is listed in the country's primary stock market, the Philippine Stock Exchange. Receive coverage on national newspapers such as The Philippine Star, Manila Standard, and Inquirer (sources not primarily discussing the projects of the company). At least notable in the national level.Hariboneagle927 (talk) 12:32, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Listed on the Philippine Stock Exchange, and both it and its many, many infrastructure projects have been covered in the media. @Velella:, perhaps you would have been able to see more coverage if you searched for just "Megaworld" or "Megaworld Philippines". Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 12:45, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment -There is an issue here which directly relates to notability as defined in Wikipedia. It is easy to find references to the buildings constructed and equally easy to find references that 'mention' Megaworld, but finding references that convey notability on the company is a very different thing. Being listed on a stock exchange does not convey automatic notability. I looked but could't see notability, hence the nomination. So far nobody else seems to have found substantive and robust source. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 13:43, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Alexandru Aldea (footballer)[edit]

AfDs for this article:

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

This is the second AfD. The first one ended with the resolution to delete, as the player has not played in any pro league. The article was recreated with next-to-the same content. I requested speedy deletion, but the sysop declined as he thought there is a claim that he plays a fully pro league. It is not the case, as I shall restate. As the previous AfD has shown, the League Cup is not considered a fully-pro league, but rather a second-tier friendly game competition. After playing one match for Steaua in this League Cup, Aldea has moved to Fortuna and Ceahlăul, both second-league (not fully pro) clubs. - Andrei (talk) 09:43, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete - My opinion from the first AfD still stands: Since the winners of this "league cup" are not granted entry into the next season's Europa League, I am inclined to consider this more of a friendly competition, particularly given its sporadic timing in terms of the various rounds indicating it is meant to fit in around the pre-existing football calendar in Romania rather than be a true part of it. As such, even though the source in the article shows he played in a match between two fully professional teams, I am not convinced this competition carries that much weight. Maybe in time it will but for now, I do not think this player quite passes WP:NFOOTY let alone GNG.

~~Additionally as he is now in a non-FPL, there is little likelihood of him satisfying NFOOTY in the short term.~~Fenix down (talk) 09:48, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Looks like he has played in an FPL, although the issues with Soccerway's referencing of the Romanian top flight and the errors in the article make it difficult to1 see this. Fenix down (talk) 10:06, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, indeed it seems so. However, looking for the reports on each of those five matches in the Romanian, Aldea is not mentioned for anything. He only appears in the list of players. I find nothing verifiable that can be written about him.- Andrei (talk) 09:11, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion - You both make a big confusion because he played in a fully professional league, 5 games in the season 2014–15 Liga I for Ceahlăul Piatra Neamț, and after that they relegated in Liga II. - Narcis90 (talk) 10:00, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What I maintain is that there is no coverage from multiple independent reliable sources that describes the subject in detail.

Delete - I agree with nominator Jimfbleak. This article was speedily deleted earlier in the day and was recreated. There is "no obvious claim of notability, no real facts" Zpeopleheart (talk) 17:39, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well.. that "speedy" was because an inexperienced 275 lifetime edits contributor did not properly understand Wikipedia policy toward copy-vio and it was returned only after he was informed and his error was addressed. His WP:AGF edit summary was quite revealing: "2nd attempt -- HOPEfully can avoid Speedy Deletion due to Copyright problems..." So, your speaking about something which no longer exists is not a decent deletion rational here. As for your repeating the nom's disproven statement "no obvious claim of notability, no real facts", that early concern has been addressed through it being shown that this Belgium film has analysis, coverage and commentary in multiple sources... many non-English. Thank you though for your echoing of the nom's opinion of the article pre-improvement. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 23:28, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, okay so this "article" was nominated for speedy deletion twice right before it was nominated for deletion. Do not try to interpret what I have stated here, and try to carve my words into something else. I stand by my vote to delete, and I commend the nominator on catching this one after two speedy delete tries! Zpeopleheart (talk) 02:39, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Two ? ? I see that the author received ONE automated copyvio notice (by bot) and ONE speedy notice (from you). But even were there two actual "speedies" attempted, that matter no longer applies. Cheers. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 07:25, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

...and a "Wow?" I only wanted others visiting this discussion to understand that a corrected issue with a past submission from an-inexperienced-contributor-willing-to-learn should not somehow taint an unbiased consideration of an improved version. I am myself less able to disregard the many English and non-English reliable sources covering this, and a closer will make the final judgement. Thank you. I commend the author for not storming off in a huff and his being so willing to address early concerns.Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 07:11, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Simply put... In its nominated BEFORE it was unsourced and in a poor article format... and in its corrected AFTER it is now sectioned and properly sourced under MOS:FILM to show a meeting of WP:NF. Thank you. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 11:32, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete / merge to Malala Yousafzai. It's an interesting case of notability coming not from a parent to a child but in the other direction. The position does not seem notable, but his nomination generated a bit of a buzz, given that his daughter is a media darling. Still, it seems to fall under WP:ONEEVENT and such, and the best solution would be to merge the article to a family section of his daughter article. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:14, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The UN might have thousands of advisers (not sure if that's the same as "special adviser"), but they do not all get this kind of coverage. I think he satisfies GNG on his own, being covered in depth in numerous RS. We do have room for anyone who meets GNG guidelines. As to notability deriving from his daughter, yes, that would be valid if he did nothing else, but he has an important position with the UN now, and because of that position he is getting lots of RS coverage.

Keep, but needs sourcing badly. If they hit the top ten on the CCM charts (source?), that's big for a Christian band. They don't usually make the Billboard charts, just like classical recordings have their own ratings. They did an international tour, so there must be press from that tour. Robert Sweet was so huge from his mainstream crossover Christian metal band Stryper that, at the very least, this article might be considered for a merge into his page (which looks like it could use some expanding). Maybe all their notable recordings and touring was at the beginning when Robert Sweet was with them, but that's still something. So, keep it & tag it.

Keep Based on the sourcing, this article would appear to just pass the guidelines for a notable company (WP:CORP). I don't think we can expect that topics that are developing rapidly and online are going to have the same sorts of sourcing of more traditional topics. At their most basic, the notability guidelines are concerned with whether there are independent and objective discussions of a topic that work in such a way as to make it worthy of inquiry and discussion. Keeping in mind that notability attaches to the subject of an article (not the article's contents), this fits. Guidelines aside, the article underwent good-faith authoring after an AfC discussion, and ought to be given the benefit of the doubt. Timtrent I promise, Wikipedia doesn't really delete every new page users author.--69.204.153.39 (talk) 04:09, 9 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

As an aside, User:Timtrent has a tough skin, and besides, they were the AfC reviewer who mainspaced the article, not the creator of the article -- see Special:Contributions/Olyameow for the actual creator. Another heavy contributor was Special:Contributions/Tsoydarya. Since both of them are single-purpose-usernames at present (pure E-coin), and also beginning editors from their edit-counts, I will presume they probably both would bangkeep here at AfD, and thus will not ping them in this comment to avoid WP:CANVASSING. However, at least one of them seems interested in continuing to improve the article, see e.g. this query,[49] so perhaps re-draftify is the correct approach, as outlined below. 75.108.94.227 (talk) 05:56, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify contents back into AfC, and Redirect wikilink E-coin to a newly-created entry in List of bitcoin companies, which is using pure WP:NOTEWORTHY and not yet WP:CSC, and thus is a good place to WP:PRESERVE the trade-rag refs. Although I found one passing mention in general-readership WP:RS, which was HuffPo-guest-blog in Sep'15 ("9 Giant Banks Make a Deal on Blockchain"),[50] the article in question was written by a blog-aggregator person Alex Salkever who cited one of the blogs his corporation aggregates, namely the one by William Mougayar (see also [51][52]), and the namedrop of E-coin was the definition of passing mention. E-coin was listed in a collapsed sidebar-box as "one of the over 500 blockchain-related organizations" in the universe... though in fact there are only ~444 such organizations listed by HuffPo once dupes are elided.

Wikipedia should have articles on the highly-cited organizations from that massive list, but not on all 400+ of them, per WP:NOTDIR (and per WP:GNG). By my rough count, not including redirects, we currently have slightly over 50 of the organizations as bluelinks (plus a dozen articles about organizations not listed there), which is ~~12.5% of the list aka 7 out of 8 blockchain-related orgs are not yet wiki-notable. Is e-coin in the top decile of all bitcoin organizations? Probably WP:NotJustYet. In terms of extant bluelinks, just looking at non-bitcoin-specific-refs, e-coin is tied for 55th place in WP:SOURCES when simply counting publisher-noses; our top-ten-best-cited-bluelinks all have at least seven non-bitcoin-specific-WP:SOURCES, top 20 have 5+ non-BTC-refs, top 30 have 3+ non-BTC-refs, top 40 have 2+ non-BTC-refs, and the top 50 have 1+ non-BTC-refs (usually somebody impeccable like the WSJ which has a regular blog about bitcoin-and-related-topics). Once e-coin has more than bare namedrops outside the bitcoin-trade-rags (a couple such refs would be ideal), putting the firm back into mainspace should be a no-brainer.

p.s. The reason to put the material into draftspace, aka draftify-and-redirect rather than simply delete-and-redirect, is that the firm may be getting additional press-coverage in the next few months; unsubmitted AfC drafts last six months before bot-cleanup, even when nobody is modifying the draft. If the material *is* draftify-n-redirect'd then it makes sense to put a visible-comment on the redirect-page mentioning the draftspace version, so nobody starts working on de-redirection without realizing there is already a stub in draftspace for them to start from. Also, given the usernames which created the AfC article, and the mention of Russian language support in the software, it is possible that WP:RS exist in Russian-language publisher for the corporation, which is another reason I lean towards to draftify-n-redirect rather than delete-n-redirect. 75.108.94.227 (talk) 05:56, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Certainly the sources as offered are non-viable, but the question in an AfD is where they exist at all.

Weak Keep : The article isn't especially good or useful, and probably results from the confusing Wikipedia policy that entries in a list must nearly always link to an article (as in Wikipedia:PROSE ). In some of the distributions, like Kogaionon, the editor of the list simply linked to the notable thing the distribution was named for -- which is a wholly improper result, but the only real response to what seems to be the policy. Here, this article is linked from List of Linux distributions, and without it, the list will be incomplete for no good reason. Perhaps someone with a clearer grasp of the policy can explain how this apparent conflict is resolved.--69.204.153.39 (talk) 14:58, 5 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Does not have significant coverage in reliable sources. Yes, it's possible that a stub was created just so that it could be added to a list of Linux distributions. However, we are under no obligation to keep these kinds of articles. We're not a directory listing or indiscriminate collection of information. Articles must satisfy our inclusion criteria. There are other places on the Internet that can and do catalog every single Linux distribution, such as DistroWatch. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 01:45, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. There are some sources, especially if you search using the old name ("Peanut Linux"). aLinux distro 2005-2015 (during which it had to compete with Puppy Linux), fka Peanut Linux distro 1996-2005 (during which it did not); at various points aLinux/Peanut was a debian derivative and/or a slackware derivatve. Primary person responsible was Jay Klepacs (of Canada). This was one of the lightweight-distros-yet-full-featured-distros, a bit heavier than Puppy Linux but about the same as Vector Linux (and of course considerably heavier than Damn Small Linux and Tiny Core Linux and other uber-tiny-distros), but often included in the same category by the press as them, since the project-goals were similar.

There is probably sufficient depth of coverage in the Linux-specific sources to write a start-class article, but I'm not sure there is enough generic-IT trade-press coverage to pass WP:GNG. Wiki-tradition is for FLOSS projects to get a bit of a break in terms of what counts as WP:RS (see e.g. WP:NSOFT essay), but methinks that tends to be more applicable for *active* projects that the readership might actually find useful to them in real life. As a historical project, WP:NOTTEMPORARY applies of course, but it's borderline whether we have enough sources to properly write up an article about this defunct project/product.

It is possible offline sources from the late 1990s exist, if somebody has access to glossy-print-computer-magazines from that era. p.s. For the younger readership, there was this thing back in the day, called "64 megabytes of RAM" which was quite an impressive thing... you may be more familiar with "gigs" nowadays, which are vaguely related. ;-) 75.108.94.227 (talk) 08:43, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The CNET article looks good, but the others are trivial mentions. The entire news article doesn't have to be about this topic, but we need more than a confirmation that it exists. This would include single sentence mentions, top ten lists, database entries, etc. It's useful to have an exhaustive list of every open source project that has ever existed, yes, but that's an argument to avoid. Though it's more commonly associated with fandom, Wikia is a better place for exhaustive coverage of non-notable topics. Or, like I said before, DistroWatch.

Currently a one-hit wonder act. Had one song chosen for an ad campaign, but their "debut EP" did not chart. We already have an article on the song (which is notable per WP:NSONG), but this band only meets that same single criterion in WP:NBAND, and there's no substantial coverage (per Google). A band does not inherit notability based on meeting NSONG, and meeting one criterion of ten in NBAND simply is not sufficient grounds for inclusion.

I'd actually somewhat argue against a redirect unless we can prove that this film is being made and that the production is at least notable enough for a mention on Ghandi's page. I wager that there are likely a lot of films out there about Ghandi, documentary or otherwise, so we should reserve redirects for things that would warrant a mention on his article. So far it's fairly slow going and I'm really not finding much to show that this would be all that good of a redirect. Also, the name of this is "African Raga", so this title is misspelled. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:29, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also, things like this 2012 blog article give off the impression that this is about Indians in Africa in general, not specifically about Gandhi. I'm wondering if this film wasn't dropped or was released and gained no notice, since I'm not finding much on this at all, just SPS and primary sources from around 2012. I'm leaning more solidly towards a delete. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:32, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The only mention I can find about this in anything remotely approaching a reliable source is a brief mention in this 2013 article. This is far too brief to warrant inclusion on Wikipedia even as a mention somewhere. Since what little I can find for this film shows that this is about " tracing the 150-year history of Indians in Africa" rather than about Gandhi specifically, I would argue strongly against redirecting it to his page - especially since there's really not enough here to even warrant a mention on his article. If anyone wants to create it in the future if/when this documentary ever gets released, I have no issue with that - it's just that right now this is far, far too soon for an article.

Comment: For the record, that's the kind of process i was hoping i would trigger. I think most of you looked at it more carefully than i, and i think the only useful thing i can add to the discussion is that since "Ghandi Ji" (or whatever the correct punctuation and casing is) combines the surname with a term of high religious respect -- my impression is that it would roughly parallel "St. Mohandas" (but for the detail that some niggling theological disagreements will probably stand in the way of a Catholic canonization process for at least a few more generations) and thus for most English-language contexts, it is

too close to being redundant (for identification purposes), and

too confusing for many English-as-first-language speakers, to count as a clarification about which Ghandi we have in mind.

I believe it was named after the video game list variant - List of video games notable for negative reception - which was only named differently than the "considered the worst" articles, because editors wanted to better distinguish it from the List of controversial video games article - one focusing on poorly reviewed titles, while other focusing on controversial titles - not the same thing, as some controversial titles, like Grand Theft Auto or Mortal Kombat have been generally well reviewed. I'm not aware of any equivalent "controversial car" title, so its not necessary to distinguish. Sergecross73 msg me 12:38, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No opposition to rename from me either. -- ferret (talk) 12:50, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Rename I will agree to keep as long as this article is renamed as proposed by Clarityfiend as the guidelines needs to be tightened up; this is as the video game list is slack on inclusion criterias compared to the movie list (inclusion of rush produced games with the aim of shamelessly cashing-in on major sports event).

Keep Keanan Duffty - no comment on the band article, as I know nothing about music and won't go anywhere near it, but I've definitely heard of the designer. Incidentally, please could you link to actual articles rather than the page of Google results, as I don't think we see the same results you do - I click through and often can't work out which results I'm supposed to be looking at. From the page refs, among the (wince) YouTube links, I see multiple articles in Women's Wear Daily (a good indicator that he's significant in his field, as WWD is a leading daily fashion paper). A peek at Highbeam pullls up 93 articles for his name, from 1999 through to 2012, many of which on a quick scan through are focused on him, his career, and what he's up to at that point in time. For example, I see a 2006 article devoted solely to a collaboration with Target and the responses to his designs, and a 2001 article discussing (over several paragraphs) what happened when Duffty and Reebok collaborated on a shoe show. A 2005 article with plenty of editoral commentary on the progress of his design career up to that point, before entering into an interview with him. And plenty more material. There is definitely more than enough coverage on the designer, and given the extent and level of that coverage, I wouldn't be surprised if the band passes notability too, but I can't comment on that.

Speedy delete, no refs, fails WP:NCOMPANY. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:53, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Why speedy deletion process? There's no speedy deletion for lack of refs or not being notable. Appable (talk) 01:34, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Originally proposed deletion as "Unsourced, no significant coverage in a video game reliable sources custom Google search". Nothing appears to have changed. czar 04:50, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Userfy. I did a quick google search for Polish language sources and seem to have found some, but I'm not sure of their quality. Here are some articles: [61][62][63][64]. this article was published in Gazeta Wyborcza, one of the most read newspapers in Poland. In the mean time in case the article does get axed I'd like to take a better look at the sources and see if the article can be improved.--Prisencolin (talk) 07:53, 27 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for now as I found some links at Books, News, browser and Highbeam but not much convincingly good. Pinging past users Whpq and Ism schism. SwisterTwister talk 04:07, 14 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete To make it easier to read, I removed unsourced info. Now we can see what remains. What remains is a whole lot of self-published books and music and art. The "publisher" (Mirapuri) publishes solely Michel Montecrossa works. (Well, there may be some others) There are no "instructions to authors" that most publishers would have -- in other words, they aren't open to other authors or musicians. The text that I removed was grossly promotional (and some remains; I didn't think it worth while doing a full edit). Given the promo machine that this person is, it may be necessary to salt this one. I would expect to see it come back in some form. LaMona (talk) 16:14, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Trevor Rosen[edit]

Though he appears to have cowritten a few notable songs, there is not enough biographical information in the sources cited to write a reasonable biography of him. See WP:COMPOSER. Note that I accepted this through AFC and then nominated for deletion because I don't think it should be kept, but don't feel confident enough in my assessment to make the call without further input.

Redirect to Old Dominion unless deletion is actually thought to be best as if this is marginally acceptable and may be better in the future, this may be kept until then. SwisterTwister talk 04:35, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Passes general notability and Composer as well. Rmhermen (talk) 18:45, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Passes WP:COMPOSER as he "has credit for writing ... music for a notable composition." Actually, seven of his songs are sufficiently notable that they have their own stand-alone articles. See Say You Do (Dierks Bentley song) (#1), Sangria (song) (#1), Better Dig Two (#1), and Break Up with Him (#3). and Category:Songs written by Trevor Rosen. Per WP:COMPOSER, wWhen a composer is known for multiple works, a merger with the article about his notable work may not be possible. Cbl62 (talk) 07:47, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Snow Keep per above, sufficient standalone notability asserted per WP:COMPOSER as the writer of several #1 hits. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 20:34, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
