This young man is one of the three US citizens involved in disarming the gunman during 2015 Thalys train attack, therefore newspaper coverage of him is immense. However is this a WP:BLP1E? The only content in this article which is not in the main event page, is that apparently he is now going to be appearing on Dancing with the Stars. Does this justify the article?

CookieMonster755, the French police, and the media say at present it was a possible 'terrorist attack', at the moment it's all surmisal.Pincrete (talk) 17:17, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well, if you read what I said, Skarlatos does not meet criteria for BLP1E for several reasons. That is to protect people who don't want fame, obviously he wants fame due to the fact that he will be on Dancing with the Stars. I do agree that I am being biased due to the Crystal rule, but you know there is alternatives to deletion. Also; he meets the Wikipedia notability guide WP:ANYBIO #1, quote on quote "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times." He also meets Wikipedia notability guide WP:NotableMIL #1, quote on quote "Were awarded their nation's highest award for valour." CookieMonster755 (talk) 22:08, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Of course I read what you wrote, what information is in this article that is not already in the main 'attack' article, apart from the 'dancing' plug and the assumption that this is going to lead to notability beyond the single event? See my remarks about WP:CRIME below, because everything in this discussion hinges on whether going to be in 'Dancing', justifies the seperate article. Pincrete (talk) 08:38, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sandra, as I say above to CookieMonster755, the French police, and the media say at present it was a possible 'terrorist attack', at the moment it's all surmisal, neither motives nor intentions are known. Pincrete (talk) 17:21, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The guy is known for 2 reasons. Just because a particular reader or man on the street is ignorant and doesn't know him is not a disqualifying reason. For example, ask the man on the street who famous author Pablo Neruda or famous painter Jackson Pollack were and maybe 95% of people will say "never heard of him". Given that criteria, most Wikipedia articles would be deleted except the Kardashians and President Obama. Even the Prime Minister of New Zealand would be deleted because 99% of people on the street can't name him. Sandra opposed to terrorism (talk) 21:13, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
At present, he is known for one reason, and the best place to incorporate the info about him is the event for which he is known, where it is given context, and will remain permanent. Everything else is crystal-ball gazing based on just over two weeks of news coverage. The media and the public are fickle. Pincrete (talk) 08:55, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
CookieMonster, I was not aware of WP:ANYBIO, thanks for bringing that to my attention. If that's legit, I would change my vote (unhappily, but I would). The reason I'm not happy about it, is that it would mean we have about one million articles to add to WP. Would you like to take the first 500,000 and I'll take the rest? ;-) Mathglot (talk) 07:08, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
CookieMonster read on below ANYBIO to WP:CRIME: " A person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article if there is an existing article that could incorporate the available encyclopedic material relating to that person. Where there is such an existing article, it may be appropriate to create a sub-article, but only if this is necessitated by considerations of article size." ... What encyclopedic info cannot be incorporated, indeed has not already been incorporated in the main event page ? Pincrete (talk) 08:49, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
He is not a criminal. I pointed out that he qualifies for his own article under ANYBIO. CookieMonster755 (talk) 17:20, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
'who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial', of course he isn't a criminal. Who suggested he was? Pincrete (talk) 17:27, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry Pincrete for not reading the full text in context. I guess Skarlatos would fit in that category... CookieMonster755 (talk) 17:33, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Necrothesp - He still does not fit the BLP1E. I explained above. No, his media coverage is not a BLP1E. What about Dancing with the Stars coverage he has already received. Does that have any connection with the Paris train attack? I don't think so... but it's fine if you beg differently. CookieMonster755 (talk) 17:20, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
He has only been asked to be on Dancing with the Stars because of the Paris train attack, so yes, it quite clearly has a connection. How bizarre that you seem to think it doesn't! Reality TV contestants always get a lot of coverage but are not generally considered to be notable just because they're reality TV contestants. This is long-established. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:04, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm... you do make a point Necrothesp, but I feel like your being sarcastic, but I guess that's just me. CookieMonster755 (talk) 14:10, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, not sarcastic. Just rather surprised at your statement that his reality TV coverage had nothing to do with his exploits in France. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:25, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Are you trying to suggest that someone with significant coverage somehow isn't notable? --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 20:44, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Jakob, the coverage isn't simply significant, it's huge, however all of it relates the the 'trigger event', and guidelines are clear that he should be covered within the event page. There is anyway no additional content on 'his' page apart from maybe he is going to be on a dance programme. Pincrete (talk) 21:12, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You can't vote twice, the nomination is considered a vote. You may comment, or engage in discussion, as much as you like, though. Kraxler (talk) 15:13, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

E.M.Gregory, you have voted above to 'keep'.Pincrete (talk) 20:17, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
True. Nor did I just "vote". I "noted" that quite a lot of coverage continues to appear daily in mainstream media. I suggested that the article be kept - because it has a ton of sources; pointed out that calling this a flash in the pan requires the use of a crystal ball; and suggested that a kept article can be revisited if an editor thinks - months from now - that he can persuade the rest of us that Skarlatos was a mere nine days wonder. Cheers.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:11, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Clarify I am a firm keep. There is notability here. If it comes up for AFD again, I will argue that enduring notability is established by sources now available.E.M.Gregory (talk) 06:53, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Winner 42, as I've said often above, there is enormous coverage, but almost all of it relates directly to the train incident, what point therefore is repeating that info on a 'private' page? Maybe in the future he will establish some notability outside that incident, at present he hasn't. What does WP gain? Gathering all relevant info in one place, where it has context.Pincrete (talk) 07:16, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Coolabahapple, WP:CRIME advises: A person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article if there is an existing article that could incorporate the available encyclopedic material relating to that person.. There are at least 5 people whose actions on the train are highly notable (2 French (one whose full name is not known), 3 US, 1 UK). Is the reader better served by all of the relevant info being in one place (inc. their honours) or being spread across 5-6 articles? Pincrete (talk) 17:27, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Pincrete, fair point about WP:CRIME, although I have been involved in/and read afds where the idea that WP:GNG trumps other policies/guidelines has held sway. On the point about the other people involved, if they are seen as notable/more notable then Skarlatos I am sure an editor will remedy their non-article situation. If a reader is interested enough in the subject, a couple of clicks won't put them off. Coolabahapple (talk) 23:56, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Most Air Forces have one or more solo display aircraft that fly in events and airshows and unlike multiple aircraft aerobatic teams these are not really notable, I cant see that this solo aircraft is particularly notable outside a mention on the Turkish Air Force page.

FFA P-16 (talk) 22:07, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Steelpillow I can not see any word on Wikipedia:Notability (aircraft) that single aircraft display Teams are not notable.. There exist a few single aircraft teams who play an important part on international air shows with history and some of them earned aviatic awards. I don't see any reason why Display Teams with 2 or more aircraft can bee on Wikipedia and such with 1 aircraft not.FFA P-16 (talk) 16:15, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
One lone machine is not a "team". The team of people is even less notable than the aircraft. If a given "team" gains enough mention then notability can be established in the usual way by citing reliable sources which actually address the notability of the aircraft and/or its team. That is not the case here, the main sources are concerned with a centenary event and this aircraft's display gets only a passing mention. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 17:04, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well the therm Team is not only relatet to the numbers of aircraft. I can not agree with "The team of people is even less notable than the aircraft". Whitout more than 1 person no aircraft display would be possibel . Also the definition "One lone machine is not a "team"" is not right [11] its 1 Superpuma or Cougar.. but its the Super Puma Display Team..Super Puma Display TEAM. Or [12] again its SWISS HORNET DISPLAY TEAM. Also they don't do just some fly by, they have a real display program with manouvers specialised for a display. FFA P-16 (talk) 10:09, 9 September 2015 (UTC)Still on Wikipedia:Notability (aircraft) is no definition about Display Teams nor a definition about the term "Team". To have here on English Wikipedia only the Teams from 2 aircraft and more but suppress informations about single aircraft display teams makes Wikipedia in this aeronautics topic an unusable tool.FFA P-16 (talk) 12:24, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is a tool for informations. It is not at wikipeda to define what is an aerobatic team and what is not. If an Air Force like the Greece, Belgian, Swiss , Turkish Air Force(in this case the Turkish Air Force) has given an single aircraft display team the official statuts, it si it. Wikipedia can (should)put in this in its "database". To think Wikipedia could determine over decisions of Air Force is illogical and absurd. Banish teams with only one airplane from Wikipedia, violated the basic idea of Wikipedia about the neutral and equitable access of information.FFA P-16 (talk) 12:40, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: No assertion of notability. The article basically says that it's a mosque near Bidar, a town about 100km from Hyderabad. The article about Bidar mentions a long list of monuments in the city, but makes no mention of this mosque, so I seriously doubt that it's very significant.

Article about a film which only contains one Unreliable source. The article does not meet any sort of notability requirement including WP:GNG and WP:NFILM.

I am new to wiki so I apologize if not using proper tags, etc. There are approximately two dozen legitimate reviews of the film. I did not post them on the page because I wanted to keep it 100% neutral and not show favoritism in selecting one review over another. Also, if the official website is visited (www.teamorchard.com) there are direct links on the front page to the film online on all major internet video on demand platforms, including Vudu, Amazon Instant Video, iTunes, and Google Play. I did not include these links in the movie's page because I did not want to commercialize it or use it for publicity. The film has also screened at a half dozen film festivals in 2015. There are films with the same title listed that have far less credentials and widescale availability, so I'm unsure why this particular film page is being targeted for deletion. Niespodj (talk) 19:02, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Being available for distribution and having screened at festivals aren't things that would automatically give notability, although they do make it much easier for something to gain coverage. I'll try to find the reviews, but I'm concerned that these reviews might not be usable as reliable sources (WP:RS) and may be the unusable sources that Erik was talking about. Not all reviews are usable as reliable sources, so if something was covered in a self-published blog, those cannot be used. (However if the blog was included in a notable, reliable aggregate website like Metacritic or Rotten Tomatoes as a critic review, then it could be used.) Also, saying that other things exist (WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS) with less notability on Wikipedia is not a valid reason for inclusion, as there are many, many articles on here for films that really don't pass notability guidelines - they just haven't been detected yet. However all of that said, I will try to look for sources and see if I can find enough for the film to pass notability guidelines. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 04:19, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • That's kind of what I figure - if more sources aren't available by the end of the AfD period, it's likely that they'll come about in the next few months with Halloween approaching. Outright deletion wouldn't really be my first impulse here. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 10:40, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Schmidt, I had to remove the Dread Central bit from the reception section. The Dread Central article is a reprint of the press release for the most part and the bits that were added as a review were from the press release. You can tell because this was reprinted in this website and labeled as a press release. The portions about the cast's home bases looks like it was heavily or directly taken from a press release as well, but that's a basic detail so there's no reason not to include that - just be careful about anything italicized on DC since that usually means that they took it from somewhere else. However that said, I did find some probably usable reviews, so yay for that. I'll add them soon. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 03:50, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Argh, all blog reviews. (Got them from this press package.) I was hoping that Horror Society would at least be usable, but they have nothing on their page about their editorial oversight. The other sites are either outright unusable blogs or also lack anything on their site that would show that they have an editorial board that Wikipedia would approve of as a RS. (sighs) I wish more outlets would label people as editors or whatnot. Horror Society likely does have them, but chooses not to include them. I'll drop them an e-mail about this.

No notability asserted, no third-party sources (the one "reference" is by no means a source for the subject, having nothing to do with the AHumanProject), opinionated incoherent writing. I PRODded it, but the prod was promptly removed by the creator, with the argument that it needs to be on Wikipedia precisely because it is nowhere else, if I understood them correctly.[13] Bishonen | talk 16:11, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

VS: Well, let me clarify. I have used many sources, including Wikipedia to create content of aHuman. This project is not just pages to collect the information, but it contains know-how on how to integrate the information, and auto-generated content. Quality of data were confirmed several times in private emails to me from science representatives. Still, as I'm not a part of science community, it's quite hard to have formal references. At least, I have not spend much efforts for that up to the moment. Nevertheless, I think that it is the quite unique source of information, which have to be available to scientists. aHuman tag on google search is first line of output - so I can pretend it's sort of referenced actually. But when google buried its googlecode service and I migrated project to specific hosting, I need smth to let people know where they can find aHuman pages now. So, it is need both to community an to me (btw, to much lesser extent). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vsavchik (talkcontribs) 16:26, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

VS: Guys, ok, looks like you do not see the point. Wikipedia will miss more than me. Your pages are also criticized for politicisms and intentional distortions and some people do not trust your information at all. Now I also can see your rule set is somehow reasonable but fail in some cases. If you like you can believe that it is a sort of consensus. Happy with "let alone discussing it in any depth" - gentle enough... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vsavchik (talkcontribs) 19:12, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yep.The topics of Wikipedia articles have to meet our notability guideline. At present, this one doesn't. --Anthonyhcole (talk · contribs · email) 19:20, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

VS: final message from me. Wikipedia is arranged collection of significant facts. It is the only achievable goal disregarding your personal thoughts about it. aHuman is a fact confirmed by its author. And it is significant fact because of the concept and volume and quality of published project data. Hence if your rules prevent people across the world to let know about this fact, it means that existing formal rule set is incorrect. So is up to you whether to sacrifise Wikipedia mission or to improve rules.

The criterion does apply if the claim of significance or importance given is not credible.

Poorly sourced WP:BLP, tagged as needing reference improvement since 2010 without further action, of a person notable only as a deputy leader of a minor political party. While the party is one whose leader generally gets over the bar, the same can't be said of the deputies — and being a deputy leader isn't a notability freebie under WP:NPOL. The extant source isn't even substantively about him, either, but merely namechecks his existence — and the article reads very like a campaign brochure, written almost entirely in incomplete sentence fragments and delving far more into unsourced statements of his beliefs and inspirations than into anything encyclopedic that he did.

The result was delete. Some "keep" arguments are notably weak because they don't address the reasons advanced for deletion, such as "as notable as any other video game", or "I don't think it should be deleted just because it's offensive", when the nomination makes clear that this is not the argument being made here.

Are you suggesting that the coverage this game has received is somehow routine? Winner 42 Talk to me! 16:26, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No. Its the exact opposite. Video games are things people play for entertainment value. This game is controversial and all coverage about the game is about how it is controversial, not about how the game was made, reviews it received, music, sound, graphics, or any other quality that would be fitting of a video game. For that it fails the "significant coverage" requirement of the GNG which is defined as ""Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail" [27].

  • @Settleman: The controversy would likewise have to pass WP:GNG, meaning significant coverage [of the controversy] in multiple reliable sources over a period of time. As there seems to be 100% overlap between coverage of the game and coverage of controversy surrounding the game, it seems unlikely sufficient sources about the latter exist. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 17:04, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Rhododendrites: The GNG states: "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list."

@Davey2010: I mean no disrespect but you should try to base your judgments on guidelines not sentimentality. Your rationale offers no reasoning, just emotion. 9/11 was devastating (I live in Lower Manhatan and was at work a quarter of a mile away from Ground Zero at 26 Federal Plaza that morning, just so you know I am not a heartless dick) but try to keep perspective.

E.M.Gregory's correct - I did say "per above as well as per sources" so it wasn't all strong feelings but yes I do have strong feelings when it comes to stuff like this, I very very rarely express my feelings here but I don't see a problem just aslong as you keep it relevant and to the point, Wow I'd imagine that was absolutely terrifying!, I've never thought that about anyone on here at all, You nominated based on notability so it's all cool :) –Davey2010Talk 15:54, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Msnicki Note: All the newspaper and related articles cannot be considered to be reliable one; contents published such as press-releases...reviews is not considered to be the reliable one.

See WP:ORGDEPTH which states dept coverage in multiple reliable sources is needed. — CutestPenguinHangout 14:48, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Multiple" is generally interpreted as at least two good sources at AfD. The Business Standard and Quartz articles satisfy the requirement. That makes this one a keep. Msnicki (talk) 16:44, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Msnicki You are right but press releases and reviews is not general cited or you can say is not treated as good /reliable references even if they are from great sources.

QZ looks reliable to me. From their Welcome to Quartz page, Quartz is owned by Atlantic Media Co., the publisher of The Atlantic, National Journal, and Government Executive.

If you're going to quote WP:IRS, it should be an actual quote, not something manufactured out of your imagination. That page simply does not say what you claim it does.

Keep There are plenty of news articles and websites covering this in the US. The article can be significantly improved and quite easily with little effort. As for the AfD, the nominator is asking for a delete based on an editing issue and obviously did not do a basic search on the term. The nominator claims there is no info for improvement. It's a week in February recognized in Texas, Ohio and other states... it seems that it may have been federally recognized. Now if we're looking at it as a singapore-only event, it still may be notable! Not finding information on the web doesn't mean it's not important... much info about Singapore news is available only thru lexis nexus. In addition the amount of information I just turned up on Google alone should be enough to warrant its own article... esp if the scope is global. Also... the lack of improvement shouldn't warrant an AfD. Be bold and fix the article yourself or bring it to the attention of active interested WikiProjects. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 12:53, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

We already have an article on Dating abuse. It's not necessary, and fails the notability guidelines, to have a separate article on an "awareness week". Kraxler (talk) 16:18, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If there are enough independent sources it doesn't fail notability. An awareness week can be notable. There seem to be a lot of articles on the topic in the US. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 22:54, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This article is about an awareness week in Singapore, and has a single source from Singapore. If you want to write an article about several awareness weeks in different places, go right ahead, and see whether it passes AfD. We are concerned now with this article, as is. Kraxler (talk) 03:00, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
AfD should be used if there is no way to improve an article. As I've pointed out, there are several good ways to do so. AfD doesn't just mean looking at the article as it is now; articles may still be notable even if they do not contain the relevant existing information in them. See: WP:NEXIST The article needs copyedit. This should have taken place on the talk page of the article, not gone to AfD. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 03:59, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Feel free to improve the article, it's allowed during AfD, but please do address the WP:CONTENTFORK problem. Also, stand-alone notability of this "event" has not been shown yet. Kraxler (talk) 15:43, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I wish !voters would stick to the issue, instead of accusing others of bad faith. My !vote was cast when the article lokked like this. Megalibrarygirl has edited it in the meanwhile, but needed to be reminded that speculating about what an article could look like is not equivalent to actually making an article show its notability and stand-alone usefulness. Kraxler (talk) 17:25, 10 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Notability doesn't depend on what is in the article at all. This is something that is often overlooked in AfD discussions. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 02:11, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Notability depends on being shown. In this case, the article was a content fork. Content forks are usually deleted for reasons other than notability. Please don't mix up apples and oranges. Kraxler (talk) 18:08, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
On a related note, in Singapore "Dating Violence Awareness Week" was the second week in February. In the US, "Teen Dating Violence Awareness Week" is apparently the first week in February, and Chicago seems to have organized its own version of "Teen Dating Violence Awareness Week" for the third week October. A separate article on Dating violence awareness with an international scope might be possible, but that's not what this article is (or even can be, given its title).

WP:BLP of a person notable as the mayor of a town of 25K — which is not large enough to confer automatic inclusion rights on a mayor under WP:NPOL — and as an as yet unelected candidate in a future election — which is not a claim of notability that gets a person into Wikipedia if they haven't already passed an inclusion rule for some other reason. The sourcing here fails to adequately demonstrate that he's more notable than the norm for a small-town mayor (e.g. by virtue of having become well-known outside of his local area), so there's no strong basis for an exemption from the 50K-minimum test for mayors, and candidates do not get articles just for being candidates — so he'll absolutely be eligible for an article if he wins his seat on October 19, but nothing here adequately demonstrates that he's earned an article today.

The Nalcor controversy would qualify as WP:BLP1E if it was a major controversy, since it is the only thing that got him a little extra attention. If it was a minor controversy it's still part of WP:ROUTINE, minor controversies happen everywhere, even in the smallest populated places. Did any national neswpaper report on the Nalcor controversy? Kraxler (talk) 13:07, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This article doesn't meet the criteria for WP:BLP1E. McDonald is not just notable for one thing, since he derives coverage and notability from his elected office as well as events he did in that office (e.g. Nalcor). As mayor of a major provincial municipality, and now a federal candidate, he's not a low profile individual, but a very public one, which BLP1E explicitly does not apply to ("WP:BLP1E should be applied only to biographies of living people and to biographies of low-profile individuals."). Yahoo New Canada saw fit to mirror the CBC articles on Nalcor [38], [39]. Though lack of national coverage (especially where there's significant amounts of provincial and local coverage) doesn't make it routine as defined in WP:ROUTINE. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 19:02, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I suggest you read again WP:NPOL # 2 "Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage". And WP:NPOL # 3 "Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the primary notability criterion of 'significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article." The refs in the article are not in-depth on McDonald, and a few stories in local newspapers/TV can not be considered "significant coverage". Kraxler (talk) 19:19, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
As I've noted throughout this AfD, my position (backed by a reading of POLOUTCOMES) is that as regionally important mayor, McDonald counts as an major local political figure. The article clearly goes beyond his electoral record and cites instances where's he's made provincial and regional new (e.g. Nova Scotian news and Atlantic Canada news for his construction projects), which I think constitutes significant and independent coverage. The NALCOR articles are entirely about McDonald's role in the dispute, and of the other sources, one is an interview with the leading provincial paper and another is with a 1v1 interview with NTV, a leading provincial television network. These are IMHO in-depth sources. Even if there is no national level coverage, the depth and frequency of provincial sources (yes by accident of geography, CBS is on the Avalon Peninsula along with St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, so all major provincial news outlets are technically local), combined with his position as a regionally important mayor are enough to justify keeping the article. Since we fundamentally disagree on the definition of the terms, it'll be up to the closing admin to decide. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 02:12, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Interviews with the subject in media don't count toward satisfying WP:GNG, because they involve the subject talking about himself. To count toward GNG, a source has to involve other people talking about him. Bearcat (talk) 17:02, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I brought up the interviews to show that there were clearly in-depth, non-cursory coverage of McDonald among the refs. All the other sources in the article are independent, non-interviews and are mostly similarly in-depth. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 21:20, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
NPOL # 2 says notable are "Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage. This is a minor local politician, major local politicians hold office in a capital city or in a city with a million inhabitants, or in cities known all over the world. I've never heard about Conception Bay South before, and I'm a geography buff. Sorry, but guidelines should guide us, not be treated with contempt. Kraxler (talk) 23:54, 2 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
We have lots of articles on minor politicians who don't hold office in a capital city or in a city with a million inhabitants or cities that are known all over the world, see Rhode Island House of Representatives and scroll down to the list of members, nearly all of them are blue links. SuperCarnivore591 (talk) 00:26, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Those are state-level politicians, not local ones — a state legislature is an entirely different level of office, with an entirely different set of applicable notability standards, than a city council is. Kraxler is mostly correct about what our standards for local politicians are — to be fair, our standard for mayors isn't actually as restrictive as our standard for city councillors is, but CBS still isn't large or prominent enough to pass our standard for mayors and it's in no way equivalent to a state or provincial legislature. And you can't just read WP:NPOL and think you fully understand our notability standards for politicians — you also need to read WP:POLOUTCOMES. Bearcat (talk) 03:36, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"is the political candidate for a major position" carries no weight under Wikipedia's inclusion standards. As already explained, being an unelected candidate for a seat in the House of Commons is not a notability claim that gets a person into Wikipedia in and of itself — if you cannot adequately show that he was already notable enough for a Wikipedia article before he became a candidate for a seat in the HoC, then he has to win the seat, not just run for it, to become notable enough for a Wikipedia article. And no, you haven't adequately shown that he garnered sufficient notability from the mayoralty either. Bearcat (talk) 03:52, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The point is I don't agree with the essay. Notability of McDonald is established by his references in reliable sources. SuperCarnivore591 (talk) 04:28, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Not if those reliable sources are covering him in the context of a role that doesn't qualify him for an encyclopedia article, it isn't. Local media have an obligation to cover local politics, so coverage of his candidacy for an office that he hasn't been elected to yet falls under WP:ROUTINE, not WP:GNG — and once you discount those sources, what's left isn't even approaching the lower edges of the volume of coverage of his mayoralty that it would take to grant him NPOL #3 or a GNG-based exemption from our minimum population standards for mayors. Bearcat (talk) 04:38, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
User:SuperCarnivore591, NPOL is a guideline, not an essay. POLOUTCOMES is a mirror of the past (aka "precedent"), not somebody's personal opinion (as most essays may be). ROUTINE and GNG are guidelines too. Accusing people of trying to delete an article for no other reason than being "deletionists" violates WP:AGF which is a fundamental principle (two steps above guideline). Kraxler (talk) 15:10, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The fact of the matter is that too many people have strict standards for article inclusion, such as a mayor needing 50,000 residents for an article. SuperCarnivore591 (talk) 15:13, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Standards follow consensus, established by the community. If the subject fails the standards, there's not much we can do about it. We have actually (currently at AfD) articles on city councillors who got less than 300 votes in a Chilean city, and the author thinks that these are extremely important people. So, some editors use their own standards when it comes to include their favorite subjects here, but everybody is supposed to bow to the community standards. That's why we have guidelines. Kraxler (talk) 15:33, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
And POLOUTCOMES says "Mayors of cities of at least regional prominence have usually survived AFD, although the article should say more than just "Jane Doe is the mayor of Cityville". In this case, the mayor of the second largest municipality in Newfoundland and Labrador would in fact be a major local figure in the province, whereas the same would not necessarily be true for a mayor of a similarly sized municipality in a more populous province like Ontario or Quebec. Since coverage of McDonald in the article goes beyond the fact that he's CBS's mayor, I don't think POLOUTCOMES applies here.-- -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 08:06, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia grants no weight to where a municipality ranks in any given list of municipalities. The only automatic "exemption" that's granted for a city below 50K is if it's the capital of a state, province or country. And the only way the coverage goes anywhere beyond the fact of being a mayor is into his as yet unelected candidacy for a more notable office. He'll be eligible for an article if he wins the federal seat, but nothing here gets him over any of our inclusion rules now. Bearcat (talk) 04:01, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to me that POLOUTCOMES disagrees with you, because it specifically mentions "regional prominence" as a factor in evaluating AfD candidates. A municipality of 25k in a province where it's the second largest of its kind has regional prominence. A similarly sized one in a province where it would't break the top 50 municipalities (e.g. Ontario) would have considerably less regional prominence. The article goes into some detail about events during his term as mayor as expected of an article on a mayor. My position is that based on his current elected position and the available sources, he's notable enough for his own article. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 19:51, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Regional prominence" is not defined as subjective to the relative size of other municipalities in the same area; it's defined by longstanding AFD consensus as either (a) a minimum population of 50K, or (b) special allowance for a few cities (e.g. Charlottetown) which fall below that figure but are a state, provincial or federal capital. Absent one of those two conditions, it's either "more notable than the norm for cities of its size, for some substantively nationalized and well-sourced reason", or bust. Bearcat (talk) 17:08, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If "regional prominence" is not defined as prominence in the region, than the phrase should be removed from POLOUTCOMES and explicitly replaced with the requirements that you and Kraxler have repeated throughout this AfD. No more of this, "these have always been the unwritten rules", when essays like POLOUTCOMES are the places for such matters of longstanding AfD consensus. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 21:20, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You're the one concocting your own self-serving definition of "regional prominence", not me. The problem with your interpretation is that even a village of less than 100 people can be argued as "regionally prominent", if one defines "region" narrowly enough — which is why AFD has a longstanding standard, fully established by thousands of prior AFDs, for what size of community is or isn't accepted as satisfying "regional prominence". And accordingly, it's not within your right to dictate what the people who are familiar with the established precedent are or aren't allowed to say "more of this" or not — consensus makes the rules here, not you. Bearcat (talk) 23:15, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's a strawman; no one is advocating that broad of an interpretation of "regionally prominent." I've said that CBS is regionally prominent because it's the second largest municipality in a top-level sub-national polity (in this case, a Canadian province). I don't think this is an unreasonable exception to the 50k population or capital consensus on a case by case basis where reliable sources exist. I also don't think it's unreasonable that if the 50k population/capital is the precedent set by most past cases, that it should be stated as such in POLOUTCOMES, which is meant to be a repository of common AfD outcomes. I was not trying to dictate what others can and cannot say, I was just expressing my unfavourable opinion of arguments that are essentially "this is the longstanding precedent" without linking to a policy/guideline/essay to back those specific claims about precedent. I apologize if I came off as trying to silence other participants.---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 23:46, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Just to clarify, while the CBC as a whole is certainly a national entity, the coverage in question isn't coming from the national news division — it's from their local news bureau in St. John's, so it doesn't prove that he's actually getting coverage anywhere outside of his own local area yet. Bearcat (talk) 16:07, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The "local" news bureau in St. John's serves the entire province of Newfoundland and Labrador. While it's not the national bureau, it's also not as local as the Shoreline News source, which is a CBS local paper. Regional CBC bureaus combine a mix of local journalism and serious journalism that could be used to show notability. -- -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 08:06, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There's a difference between "getting provincewide coverage because he's actually a figure of genuinely provincewide notability" and "getting provincewide coverage only because the media outlet in question only has one bureau in the province, and thus every single story they cover automatically goes provincewide whether it's actually of any meaningful provincewide interest or not". McDonald is in the latter camp, not the former. The CBC is obviously a reliable source in principle — but by virtue of the way the CBC is structured, all CBC local bureau coverage, not just in St. John's but everywhere else in Canada too, automatically gets redistributed to at least half of its entire province, so the local bureaux can't in and of themselves prove that a person of local notability has passed the "covered outside his own local area" hump. Bearcat (talk) 17:00, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, regional CBC bureaus produce banal local news, but they also produce quality journalism. Doing a rudimentary google search of the CBC.ca site also shows that McDonald gets about twice as much coverage as other Newfoundland mayors except for the mayor of St. Johns. This argument also ignores the coverage from non-CBC sources like the St. John's Telegram, Atlantic Construction News, Newfoundland Television, the Nova Scotia Business Journal. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 21:20, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The quality of the journalism that the CBC does isn't the issue (go ahead and just try to find where I said anything even slightly disparaging of the CBC's journalism as a matter of principle.) The issue is the scope of notability that the journalism in question demonstrates — the fact that NTV and the CBC's station in St. John's have repeater transmitters outside of St. John's as well does not automatically nationalize their local coverage of local personalities and issues in and of itself. Bearcat (talk) 23:00, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
My point is that because the output of the regional bureaus is a mix of local journalism and issues of provincial importance, judging scope isn't as well-defined as you make it out to be. As you said you can't prove that a person covered by those bureaus is covered outside the local area. However you also can't just dismiss all coverage from the regional bureau as not showing that the mayor of CBS gets coverage from more than the local area. Actions taken by McDonald as mayor have been published in non-Newfoundland journals like the Nova Scotia Business Journal and Atlantic Construction News. McDonald also gets widespread coverage at the provincial level, including more CBC coverage than any other non-St. John's mayor. I think these demonstrate his regional importance and that national coverage isn't necessary in this case. The case of Christine O'Donnell is irrelevant because O'Donnell was just a candidate and never held any elected office of the mayoral level of higher, whereas McDonald has. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 00:24, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
All candidates in all elections always generate local coverage, so that type of coverage does not contribute to getting a person over WP:GNG — an as-yet-unelected candidate for office gets over GNG only if the coverage nationalizes in a Christine O'Donnell sort of way. And there isn't enough coverage of him specifically in the context of his mayoralty to grant him an exemption from the fact that our inclusion standards for mayors require a minimum population of 50K — they are not based on where the municipality ranks in a list of the province's municipalities arrayed by population, but are based solely on the raw population figure itself. Bearcat (talk) 03:57, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You keep saying a mayor needs at least 50,000 residents in his town/city to be eligible enough for inclusion, yet haven't provided a link to a Wikipedia policy that says so. That's because it is not true. Nowhere in our policies does it say that. Please provide a link to this so-called "inclusion standard." A person being a mayor just needs to generate sufficient, third-party independent coverage to be considered notable, not to have a minimum of 50,000 residents. SuperCarnivore591 (talk) 04:12, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
You're right. There's no requirement for 50k, it's more like a million inhabitants, except provincial/state/national capitals. And there's WP:GEOSCOPE, I asked up there, and will ask again, has any national or foreign newspaper reported on the Nalcor controversy? If not, it remains local ROUTINE coverage. On a side note, I find it odd, that an editor of one month of Wiki presence is trying to lecture experienced AfD participants on the guidelines. Kraxler (talk) 18:00, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's quite an arbitrarily high requirement. GEOSCOPE applies only to events, and in any case, McDonald has gotten repeated coverage in several reputable provincial news sources. An editor of one month who's made nearly 2k edits is more than welcome to participate in AFD discussions and argue for a side. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 20:15, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Kraxler, you still haven't provided links to any policies that a mayor would need 50,000 inhabitants to have a Wikipedia article in provincial/state/national capitals, much less 1,000,000 (!) for mayors who serve every other kind of population. I know the 1,000,000 figure definitely can't be right; I can't imagine any such bogus requirement. Notability is not based on raw numbers. And another thing, please don't try to wikilawyer out of this by saying I can't criticize your AfD actions because I've only been here for a month (I've been here longer than that). SuperCarnivore591 (talk) 20:25, 12 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There is no absolute (or actually any) number written in the guideline, my comment was based on WP:POLOUTCOMES, precedent and experience in AfD discussions. That doesn't bar you from arguing for the contrary. Back to the main issue, this seeming to be a very borderline case, I'm giving the subject the benefit of the doubt, and strike my !vote. Kraxler (talk) 14:47, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
50K is an established consensus established by a wealth of past AFD discussions on mayors of similarly-sized municipalities; those past discussions have indeed established a long-standing precedent that in a city of this size, coverage of a mayor has to nationalize, demonstrating significance far beyond the purely local, before they can be granted an override of the population size criterion. It doesn't have to be explicitly written into policy to be relevant and true; one needs to also be familiar with the conventions and precedents that AFD has established, and a 50K minimum for a mayor to get "automatically in because mayor" rights, with exceptions granted only if you can properly source "way more notable than usual, because national coverage", is one of those established precedents. Bearcat (talk) 16:43, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Kraxler, 1,000,000+ is the approximate minimum standard for city councillors, not for mayors. The minimum standard for mayors is considerably lower than that. Bearcat (talk) 16:43, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'm quite experienced in AfD matters, but I wasn't aware of the 50K consensus for mayors. Thanks for telling me about it. However, I think it is too low, and I expect future arguments about notability-by-size in future AfDs, considering the appearance of new users at these dabates who are likewise unaware of such consensus, and no written rule which specifies this number. We'll have to be patient, like Sisyphus. Kraxler (talk) 17:07, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The blatant campaign advertising was my prime concern, as can be seen in my first post, way up there. Maybe the article should be trimmed down to half the current size. The elections will be held in a month, and we'll be older and wiser by then. If he wins the article stands anyway, if not... Kraxler (talk) 17:13, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've cut down the article text by about 40% and removed all material that I think could be seen as promotional. Although it's not a valid deletion argument, projections for the electoral district McDonald is running in gave him nearly a 90% chance of winning the riding. -- -- Patar knight - chat/contributions 21:20, 14 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hospitals pay to have their doctors publicly visible in these lists.

WP:BLP of an actress and writer, making no substantive claim of notability that would satisfy either WP:NACTOR or WP:AUTHOR and citing no reliable source coverage — it just asserts her existence, and parks on her IMDb profile as its sole "source". And, in fact, if you compare the statement of who she is in the IMDb profile to the statement of who she is in this article, it becomes painfully clear that the creator directly imported the IMDb statement and rephrased it just enough to avoid a literal WP:COPYVIO, without actually adding anything else to it beyond a virtual replication of the IMDb profile. An actress does not get an automatic inclusion freebie on Wikipedia just because she exists — it takes reliable source coverage about her to get her in here, but none has been shown. Delete.

MrWooHoo Well, FWIW, the author was a SPA and never seemed to come again last March 2004 (and hardly anyone else has significantly edited the article enough) and chances are very likely they're not returning.

WP:BLP of a musician with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The article is written in the first person, cites a single brief namecheck in a book, and rests his notability on having very briefly been in a notable band — however, NMUSIC permits a musician whose notability is band-dependent to have a separate standalone article only if they can be reliably sourced as having independent notability for something independent of the band (such as solo albums). And looking at the band's article, his membership was extremely brief at best — the founding member that Mallinson claims to have replaced was actually replaced within two weeks by a permanent new member who wasn't Mallinson, so even if Mallinson's claim is true he was in the band for a grand total of 10-14 days at most. And all of this occurred before the band had even recorded its first album, meaning they weren't even notable yet. NMUSIC normally recommends a redirect to the band, but I don't think that's appropriate in this case, as his membership in the band isn't even hinted at in the band's article. Delete.

How exactly did you come to that conclusion? Here's some figures.
Ariana Grande discography mentions 29 of the entries in the article.
Meaning that 15 songs from the "List of songs" article are not covered in the discography.
  • List of songs recorded by D12 lists 89 individual song entries.
Meaning that 64 songs from the "List of songs" article are not covered in the discography.
If one of the two articles were to be AfD'd, it would surely be the Ariana Grande list, no? Do you still stand by your claim that this article is redundant to the discography? Strong keep'.Azealia911 talk 19:10, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Richhoncho I'm not sure if the genre of the artists brought to AfD has anything to do with it, but they all seem to be very basic, messy, unsourced lists. I sense that having them deleted is an easy cleanup, a way of sweeping them under the rug and getting them out of the way without actually working on them if you get what I mean. Azealia911 talk 11:20, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Azealia911. I am not sure I would call any of the articles basic or messy, but I concur they are unreferenced, but that's not grounds for deletion either. If the nominator wishes to point out I have made an error in my accusation I would apologise and retract my "rapper" comment, although to be fair one of the nominations was for a "hiphop artist". --Richhoncho (talk) 08:59, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Koala15:, could you please give an indication as to weather you wish to proceed with this AfD? If you withdraw, it can speedily be closed as nobody else has !voted delete.

Kraxler I repeat what I said before, are lists like this one or this one cruft? Considering they also have corresponding discography articles? Azealia911 talk 01:40, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If you ask me whether WP:OTHERSTUFF exists, I'll answer yes. But, your two examples have a reference appended to each song, and the unlinked entries do not grossly outnumber the blue-linked songs. Kraxler (talk) 01:54, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, the ever over-used otherstuffexists, Wikipedia's answer to Godwin's law. An articles current state should not be viable reasoning for deletion, but its potential. Is the article a dire mess? Completely. Does it have the potential to be a complete, referenced list? Yes. Azealia911 talk 02:01, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of songs recorded by Yelawolf for what happens to unsourced FANCRUFT/LISTCRUFT. Kraxler (talk) 02:07, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Then why should that Afd take precedence over Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of songs recorded by Tupac Shakur, which resulted in keep? Or the more recent BIG K.R.I.T keep decision? It's all WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS and quite irrelevant to the discussion here. --Richhoncho (talk) 15:11, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it's all OTHERSTUFF, I just showed that "keep" is as much a possible outcome of this AfD as "delete". It's to be decided on the merits of this subject, and not any other. Kraxler (talk) 15:15, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If by "what happens", you mean the opinion of you and two other editors at a relatively quiet AfD, then yes ok, there's one example of what happened. But until you can clearly show me that poor referencing is a cause for deletion, and not just a way of sweeping clutter under the rug as opposed to working on said article, I'm not buying it. As of the current listed examples of reasons for deletion, I'm not seeing any that this list applies to. Take note of number 6 too, "Articles that cannot possibly be attributed to reliable sources" not "Articles that are currently not attributed to reliable sources". If anything, an easy referencing method would be the respective albums's listed in the articles' liner notes or AllMusic credits. As for you calling fancruft, preposterous. Someone making a comprehensive "List of songs" article for an artist is most definitely not cruft. I just sourced 35+ entries in the list. Will resume when I wake up. Azealia911 talk 02:22, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

LISTCRUFT applies when the non-notable stuff by far exceeds the notable part. It's 64 nn to 25 n, by your count. This list is just a pretext to squeeze more info on 64 non-notable songs into Wikipedia. Kraxler (talk) 15:19, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The subject of this article fails WP:ONEEVENT as he is known only for his current political candidacy in an upcoming Australian federal by-election, with all references on him having appeared since this was announced and being focused on this fact. The usual convention is that Australian federal political candidates are not independently notable until they are elected, with this being the consensus of a discussion of this article at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Australian politics#Andrew Hastie (politician). While Mr Hastie's Army career was distinguished, it is not a source of independent notability as 1) his identity was legally protected as he was a member of the secretive Special Air Service Regiment so he received no coverage whatsoever for it until he announced his candidacy 2) the stories about his military service have been in the context of his political candidacy (he's running strongly on his military record) and 3) He did not hold a senior rank (he was a mid-ranked officer until he resigned to contest the election).

That would effectively create a special exemption from WP:NPOL, by which all candidates in current elections would suddenly become entitled to use Wikipedia as a campaign advertising platform for the duration of the campaign, and then only after the results were finalized could we even begin to entertain deletion of any of them. And that wouldn't just apply to by-elections either; it would apply equally to all of the thousands of candidates in a full-on general election, too. No matter how ridiculous it may seem to delete the article and then possibly have to restore it again in a week or two, creating a special waiver from our inclusion rules just because the election's not very far off would be a logistical nightmare that would instantly turn us from an encyclopedia into a public relations database. There's always the option of sandboxing it, too. Bearcat (talk) 22:53, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why would the result from a single AFD make a binding precedent that overrules NPOL? If I referred to this article in the next political candidate's AFD, I'd get OTHERSTUFFEXISTS fired at me. This isn't any old minor candidate. It's a by-election, so only one seat is being voted for, and the media focus is much higher than a normal state or national campaign (as the result is seen as a pointer to the status of the Prime Minister's standing). He isn't representing any old party, it's one of the two major political parties in the country and the incumbent party for this seat, so the prediction of victory is very high, it's currently paying about $1.22 (or 5/1 on) at the online bookies. This isn't a US style >2-year campaign, it's a 33 day campaign that's seen the Prime Minister appear numerous times alongside this candidate. If there was a case for a IAR on the standard notability guidelines (not rules) for political candidates, this is it. If it is deleted, will you salt it for that week to stop other well meaning people, political staffers or editors who want it to be a "PR database" from recreating it in the meantime? (and a disclaimer, in case anyone thinks I'm COI or connected to Hastie - my politics are almost completely opposite to his. So no, I don't know or support him in any way). The-Pope (talk) 14:13, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
He was only identified after, and because, of his political candidacy. According to the media reports, he played no direct role in the incident and was cleared. I'm not sure what you mean by "ignores role as a member of SASR generally" - given that the identities of SAS personnel are legally protected, no notability whatsoever is attached to this: quite the opposite in fact. Moreover, the SAS Regiment has 500+ members at any given point in time, including what must be around 30 officers, so there's no intrinsic notability from being a former member of the unit. Nick-D (talk) 07:48, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, as you did with your original entry arguing for AfD and you’ve done again here, you have conflated the cause of his identification (political candidacy) with the cause of his notoriety (SAS soldier involved in high profile incidents and political candidacy) in an attempt to argue for deletion in accordance with WP:ONEEVENT. This is a false argument as they are two distinct elements; however, there is of course a relationship between the two. His notoriety extends from his career as a SAS officer AND his political candidacy. Perhaps you can argue that WP:POLITICIAN shows that listing him prior to election fails to satisfy this rule, but it relies on him having no notoriety other than candidacy, which is clearly not the case. Secondly, as Graeme said it’s not just an election, it’s a by-election, and it’s a by-election which has attracted more attention than any other in perhaps the last 20 years (maybe since Ros Kelly in 1995?). It’s in the news every night, and Hastie appears in the newspapers every morning, sometimes more than once. The arguments that if he loses he’ll just be another failed candidate are a weak generalisation, as at the very least we know from the alleged war crimes investigation that there’s more to come. Thirdly, your argument regarding “no notability whatsoever” due to the legally protected status of SAS personnel is a fallacy. It’s the equivalent of saying an event is unimportant because no-one saw or reported it. Maybe that tree never fell in the forest? I’m unsure what the strength of the SAS Regiment officers and men is but seeing as it’s “legally protected” the statistics you’ve used must be a stab in the dark at best, and afford no relevance to the discussion. Finally, there appears to be very limited risk of this amounting to a partisan article seeing as there is no mention of policy or the usual politicking politicians get up to, and the bulk of the article is devoted to his military service. I stand by my comments regarding satisfaction of WP:GNG. He’s attracted numerous front page stories on BOTH his candidacy and his military career, and I’m certain the media coverage over the next two weeks will further show that this is the case. I’m unsure why but my guess from your entry editorialising his private life and your removal of the references to the “controversial” article in ‘‘The Age’’ (despite it being slammed by politicians and commentators of all persuasions) is that you must really dislike this guy for some reason, hence your attempt to steamroll over all who disagree with you. Prove me wrong with a reasoned argument. Klobfour (talk) 12:25, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable school. No indication it passes WP:NSCHOOL, WP:CORP, or WP:GNG. Most "delete" arguments raised in 2006 AFD still apply. Many "keep" arguments from 2006 have been superceded by changes in Wiki-practice as seen in WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. That AFD closed as "no consensus".

A target that mentions the school by name or that at least mentions elementary schools in that geographic area or which could have a mention easily added (i.e. without having to add a bunch of other stuff for context) would likely be more suitable than one that doesn't mention it or which would need a large or awkward edit to mention it.

This newly minted WP:PROMOTIONAL article consists of 8 largely non-RS references that include YouTube, Kickstarter, Facebook, the company's own website, etc., plus a handful (3) of drive-by product reviews of specific items manufactured by the company (not actual information on the company itself). LavaBaron (talk) 03:27, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you're citing a source that you don't know much about but "appears to have an editorial staff" [sic] that's a good clue it's non-RS. As for not explaining my tags to you, it's not my responsibility to explain why Facebook and YouTube are non-RS to a seasoned editor such as yourself. It would be different if you were new here. But asking me to spend time typing out the patently obvious is a nuisance request.

  • Comment Please see WP:SELFPUB, self-published sources are not necessarily unreliable.

Unremarkable underage athlete. Fails WP:NHSPHSATH. On WP:VBALL, the project seems to indicate that youth amateur players are not notable. This would change, of course, if there were multiple third party sources to state notability. The Undead Never Die (talk) 23:29, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages because they are on the same team; and they all fall under the same notability status:

So you found sources satisfying WP:GNG and nominated them anyway. We're done. The Dissident Aggressor 22:46, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Your sources do not meet WP:GNG. They are written for local sports sections in local papers. That fails notability. The Undead Never Die (talk) 05:39, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
