Comment - Please read WP:UGC - IMDB is specifically mentioned as an example of an unreliable source. Exemplo347 (talk) 22:00, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Understood, IMDB references may be deleted from references, contacting the relevant film departments may help?, Social media status proof has also been provided, so has full birth details included, date of birth, full legal name, and birth place, Theatre school link has also been provided. If a problem then an email to the theatre school website to prove his relevant training there can be used if needing further proof.

I posted the following comment on the Talk page of your article: "The nomination was based on a failure to meet Wikipedia's General Notability Guidelines (WP:GNG and WP:GNGACTOR). The sources you have provided are not considered "reliable" - I suggest you read Wikipedia's guide to Identifying Reliable Sources (located here) - if you are unable to provide sources that meet these guidelines, that is usually a good indication that the subject of an article is not considered Notable. Please note that I have personally attempted to find reliable sources (not Self-Published sources such as Facebook, IMDB etc.) for this article and failed, leading to this nomination." Exemplo347 (talk) 22:09, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The number of sources that aren't social media related is greater than the ones which are. Basic examples repeatedly given are the persons proof of age, name and birth also I apologize as I am accidently deleting things as I'm new to wipedia talk, further discussion of evidence is basic proof contact of the theatre school, film departments etc which can all be contacted in relations of providing proof, this artist is not supremely famous but this is a fact page not a page ranking on popularity, hence why further links and references aren't provided, LINKED IN has been provided so has public interviews all provided, basic investigations had been done myskef before moving the article to the live page, DIRECT LINKS to contactable pages has been provided making it valid for the reviewer to use the email addresses associated with the article references links to contact. -Also adding on , if the reviewer agrees to edit the article based on what they have researched and departments that they have contacted then I will agree for the article to be kept by edited by the reviewer to finish of accuracy if accuracy is seen as not finished — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hanna Mania300 (talkcontribs) 22:27, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.254.180.44 (talk) 23:31, 10 August 2016 (UTC) I have searched the name up, it looks like its probably the excess of fame that is regarding notabilty, what the article speaks of looks to have confirmation through the other eferenced links to be honest so there is a fair point on that, however looking at the film credits it looks like they range from medium sized roles to small roles, which again looks as though its the lack of excess work that brings the page into deletion discussion. But its a fair point that the article does speak from a fair point of view that only regards facts — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.254.180.44 (talk) 23:29, 10 August 2016 (UTC) [reply]

*Keep Yep agreed, his Imdb has about 4 extra roles, but looking at the dates, they seem to fall behind the main actor role he had on one of his credits, its looking like the extra roles were from previous years and the lead roles are modern. Also wikepedia rules clearly state that an article must not be reviewed on the fame of a person but the hard facts provided. Im confused as we have both read the imdb site but i have managed to read it properly and gain the correct facts — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.254.180.44 (talk) 23:53, 10 August 2016 (UTC) [reply]

As per the decisions at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2016–17 Woking F.C. season, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2009–10 Grays Athletic F.C. season and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2016–17 Torquay United F.C. season, articles for teams playing in a non-fully professional league have been deleted as non-notbale, unless they otherwise pass the general notability guidelines. None of these Hereford or Dagenham and Redbridge seasons appear to do so - note in particular that under reliable source policy, notability needs to be shown beyond general news reporting - none these articles show this. Note that I have listed these as what I consider to be 'low-hanging fruit' - there is a separate discussion to be had for articles on seasons in which these clubs won promotion.

With regards to bundling - that wasn't a consensus, that was a closer's comments. This is very different from 2010-11 AFC Wimb: that bundled 11 clubs together, this bundles 2, with articles from a few seasons, of clubs in similar situations.

  • Lie? No lie's here. Perhaps an error, and if so I'll apologize; but that's not a lie. But violating WP:AGF is a far worse WikiSin. Please apologize for violating one of the basic tenents of the project. Nfitz (talk) 23:17, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • P.S. Re-read and made minor edit to previous comment. Sorry, rushing too fast. I'm far more disturbed by the quick rush to WP:AGF! I'm going to have to go to WP:ANI if that continues. Nfitz (talk) 23:25, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The reworded claim makes no sense, but the claim that they pass NSEASONS remains untrue as shown by the list of cited AfDs. And as I've told you several times previously in other discussions, any GF you had was lost several years ago when you started behaving problematically around football-related deletion (some background here). You do not start with a clean track record any time a new discussion starts – given your track record, I do not believe for one second that it wasn't a deliberate error or attempt to mislead other participants or the closing admin. Number 57 07:36, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Can I suggest that Neither @Number 57: nor @Nfitz: make any further posts on this page? You've both made your points. This isn't a call for a ban - you can both chose to ignore me if you want, but it's more of a friendly request
I'd said I'd stay out of this, but I realise, I've left this comment unaddressed. My comment is clear, there are some old discussions, including at AFD, where the assumption was that the cut-off was the 5th tier not the 4th tier. WP:NSEASONS simply says Articles can be created on individual seasons of teams in top professional leagues. Is this league professional - yes. Is it a top league - yes, it's national. The article meets WP:NSEASONS. Perhaps my earlier statement didn't fully sum up my thoughts. Nfitz (talk) 03:19, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The question for other editors is to decide whether there is an inherent notability of season articles for professional clubs in the Conference (now 'National League) of English football, which is a non-fully professional fifth tier league. My belief, given previous approaches on Wikipedia, is that they're not, unless they otherwise meat the general notability guidelines. Nfitz clearly believes that they are. Let's let more editors respond. I follow up by suggesting that whatever the outcome, we should go to both or either WP:NSEASONS or Wikipedia:WikiProject Football to establish a clearer consensus. Super Nintendo Chalmers (talk) 08:24, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No problem at all, dealing with this is getting extremely tedious. Number 57 11:17, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, I'll stay out of the discussion as well, if N57 does as well. I'm tired of dealing with editors who should have been banned years ago, for frequently violating WP:AGF. I've never in my life tried to deceive or mislead other participants or the closing admin! I'm shocked that another editor would follow a WP:AGF violation with a WP:AGF violation! Nfitz (talk) 16:56, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Jimbo online: and @Mattythewhite: - please note your two comments together! I chose these articles as a compromise between flooding the AfD with debates (and/or the rather slow process of listing all articles seperatly) and the suggestion at the AFC Wimbledon debate that we don't combine too many together. I didn't read the closing admin's comments as a suggestion that all future seasons should be listed separately (perhaps @Deryck Chan: might like to comment if that was his intention); rather, his closure was a comment on that specific listing, but also a warning against listing too many articles together. I chose these seasons quite deliberately as both D&R and Hereford are clubs who have competed in the Football League since promotion from the Conference, and were fully professional for these seasons: this was a clear point of contention at the AFC Wimbledon debate. I saw the clubs and seasons listed as roughly comparable, and they cover a similar timeframe. I note that no-one so far has made any comments which suggest any one of these seasons stands out from the others --Super Nintendo Chalmers (talk) 08:37, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Deryck C. 20:37, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Mattythewhite:I resent that last comment. These articles were very carefully curated to fit together, as I've twice explained, and you've not responded to. I ask that you presume good faith here; this was a deliberately and carefully chosen set of articles. Super Nintendo Chalmers (talk) 19:16, 14 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Your explanation made little sense. The Wimbledon AFC called out listing different teams like this, and you just did the same again, simply to save yourself the effort. The articles have been here for years, it's not like there is any rush to get rid of them. Nfitz (talk) 00:12, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not really sure I see the issue with bundling these specific articles, they are all inherent WP:NOTSTATS failures. @Mattythewhite: can you perhaps show GNG by adding some sourced prose to at least one of the articles? Fenix down (talk) 08:20, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Saying that my explanation made little sense is different from claiming that I was doing this to manipulate - I've no problem with disagreement :)! As I've explained, my judgment was that listing 2 teams together was very different from listing 10 teams together. I wanted to bundle because I wanted this discussion to allow editors to comment on this category of articles broadly, rather than to get too stuck on the specifics of one club; and yes, I was looking to save effort - I don't see a problem in that. I didn't read the closure of the Wimbledon deletion debate to see it as a rejection on bundling full-stop - I saw it as a legitimate response to a debate which clearly brought too many clubs together. For this deletion discussion, I chose 2 teams who both spent periods of time in the Conference in the early 2000s, before being promoted to the football league. This is because at the Wimbledon debate, there was a clear question over whether to treat clubs which have spent a period of time in the Football League differently to those which have never been promoted beyond the conference (contrast Gateshead and these two teams). I carefully looked at the seasons and saw no claims to notability in any of them; as noted, I very specifically didn't chose the seasons in which these teams were promoted, as I recognize that these seasons are potentially notable and will need a more thorough discussion.

  • @Joseph2302: Does it? Can't you just convert the entire article into a redirect with the text #REDIRECT[[relevant school district's name]]? If the original author or some other editor then undid this edit you would have a case for a WP:RfC, but not for a full deletion discussion. Unless I am missing something, which I sometimes am. That aside, I do not think the article on this school makes a convincing case for bona fide notability, and would support either a Delete OR a Merge outcome.

compared to some of these state Miss USA winners I have seen, Chenoweth actually has a lot of sources, and more information. However nothing really suggests notability.

Fails WP:NPOL. He is a county level politician and has only received local coverage of his election typical of every such politician. Nothing else to establish notability.

Every county-level officeholder who exists at all can always claim to be a major political leader in their own local area. It's not a statement that gets a person into Wikipedia because claimed — a person gets into Wikipedia for it only when they can be properly sourced as being significantly more notable than the thousands of other people around the United States who hold comparable positions. But nothing here shows or sources that at all; the amount of sourcing shown here isn't even slightly greater than the amount of sourceability that every county-level politician always gets in the local media.

The result was merge to Casey Dienel. There's not strictly a consensus to merge, but I'm going with that partly because it seems like a reasonable middle ground, partly because of WP:ATD, and partly because the sole person arguing to keep has stated they are OK with the merge. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:20, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fails NALBUMS across the board. Not a notable album. Also, reviews linked in the infobox are unavailable and/or linked to self-published websites (but not by the artist herself).

  • While I maintain that the album is itself independently notable, I am not, in principle, opposed, here or in general, to seeing albums merged into discography pages. But this too often ends up as just lazily redirecting the article without moving any content. If the article is merged, not merely redirected, this is reasonable. Nevertheless, AfD is not and was never the proper venue for deciding that. Chubbles (talk) 14:55, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Thesteve: I am still chuckling thanks to your comment. I agree with your take - a merge or redirect and merge would have saved time and would be one less AfD. Thanks. ----Steve Quinn (talk) 03:24, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Chubbles: I see that you said merging to a discography (article) would have worked best, yet it was you who resurrected this article from a redirect. Wasn't it possible for you to merge this into a discography or the artist's biography article in the first place? ---Steve Quinn (talk) 03:32, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Also, before I AfD any article I always do due diligence and do google searches, news searches, and newspaper searches. I really was not satisfied with the coverage I discovered - but a merge would be acceptable to me. Also, it is not necessary to make discovered sources more significant than they really are. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 03:37, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Whether things have separate articles or not is very, very, very important to some Wikipedians, and seems to dominate a lot of decision-making on the site, to the exclusion of other alternatives at times. In this case, I was concerned primarily about the removal of encyclopedic content. If it is deleted, or redirected (and thus hidden from view) without merge, valuable and worthwhile content is then hidden from users. I don't care if the content is on the White Hinterland page or in a stand-alone article...but ultimately, I'm not trying to convince you that what matters is placating me in some compromise; I'm trying to convince you that the removal of content is not in the best interest of the users, because the information about the album is encyclopedic. I'm happy for the article to stand alone, and I don't think there is sufficient reason that it shouldn't...but if it were presented as part of a larger discography page instead, that's six of one, half-a-dozen of the other. I just wish everyone else saw it that way. Chubbles (talk) 14:54, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nonsense. The subject clearly meets the general notability guideline which says 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 and clearly McDowell meets this with 15+ sources including in-depth treatment from the Wall Street Journal. Too many citations is a reason to delete an article? Nonsense -- WP:Overcite is only an essay, not an official guideline.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 13:25, 7 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: The topic of "Mary T. McDowell" has not received significant coverage in reliable sources. Yes, she is mentioned in the press, especially as it relates to her role at Nokia or new corporate initiatives, for which she's clearly a spokesperson, but this does not tell us much about the subject herself. Just getting press mentions because of her role does not necessitate creating an encyclopedia article. K.e.coffman (talk) 19:18, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There are more sources: in-depth here, in-depth here, in-depth here, being the focus of a short article here, getting serious attention in a book here, getting several paragraphs worth of attention in the Financial Times, being the main subject of this article -- many more sources. At current count, there are over 20 references, GRuban. Subject clearly meets the WP:GNG.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 19:44, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • The new sources are either interviews or about the products the company launched. The "book" appears to be self-published. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:09, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • You're right about the book -- Ari Hakkarainen was a Nokia employee (so I struck out that line above). Still, your reasoning is unclear -- that since the articles are "either interviews or about the products the company launched" that somehow this makes the sources invalid? What would a source have to say to satisfy you -- something about Mary McDowell's personal life, where she attended school, her opinions about politics, her views on global warming? That's absurd -- she is a business executive -- she markets phones -- that's what she does -- that is what the media reports -- that is what is interesting. Her name is prominently in the headline of many articles in reliable publications, her photo too, of course the articles are not about HER personally but about WHAT SHE DOES and what she does is indeed notable. The general notability guideline says 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.... She meets the guideline easily. To me, this is one more instance of a pervasive anti-business agenda bias here in Wikipedia; one can see it at work here if one checks this list of infoboxes of persons -- there are infoboxes for NASCAR drivers and poker players and comics book creators but none for businesspeople.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 11:19, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Those sources are better, but still not great; only the CNet one is more than a few short paragraphs, and I can't see the Financial Times one. I'll strike my Delete opinion, but I'm not changing to a Keep yet. Honestly, I tried looking through the sources in the article but they are very very skimpy. The ones I looked at mentioned her in a list of five others, or in a passing sentence or three. --GRuban (talk) 13:47, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Even as an entertainer, she would not be notable, as actually significant works would be needed, not simply guest star characters and other trivial works, and it seems to be the case here of not having enough substantial work, thus the article still would not be convincing.

Insufficient significant coverage in RS. —swpbT 12:47, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

AGF is for the first time, even the first few times, an editor does something shady. You're way past that point with me. And even if you were commenting in good faith, should we ignore the fact that you were plain wrong? The entire basis for your vote is a falsehood, whether you knew it at the time or not; what admin would give any weight to such a vote? —swpbT 15:08, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Follow up: I just spent about an hour or so drilling down on the deadlinks, and found archived links for most of them. Unfortunately, many are in Dutch or German, so it's going to take someone other than me to do the review of these materials, but I do believe that the multiple citations in third-party sources independent of the subject has been met. Just once, it would be nice if people would make a good-faith effort to salvage these older articles before putting an AfD on them. Montanabw(talk) 22:34, 1 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:PROF criterion 6, "The person has held a highest-level elected or appointed academic post at a major academic institution or major academic society." There are two questions: First, is the university major enough, and I can understand thinking it is not, tho in practice we've extended this criterion down to some quite minor colleges. Second, is the position the actual head of a university. In many UK and UK related institutions it's the vice-chancellor who's the head.; in some US universities that are part of statewide systems the Chancellor is the head. In this particular case, checking their website, the co-founders of the university hold the positions of chancellor and pro-chancellor; there is a vice-chancellor. Dr. S.K. Salwan. I see no organizational chart or equivalent, but reading the CV's, I think he's clearly the head (and should have an article).I changed my !vote accordingly.

Swire is a repeat and long-term offender for COI promotional editing on Wikipedia, particularly with regard to their property holdings around Hong Kong (i.e. Cityplaza) as well as their group companies (like Swire Hotels).

The concept of the "Starstreet Precinct" was invented by the Swire company because they have a lot of property holdings in the area and wanted to elevate the value of the then-new Three Pacific Place tower by rebranding a "slummy" part of town into a stylish area. However, I do not think the moniker has come into common parlance. For average people it is simply a part of Wan Chai. Furthermore the article was created by a single-purpose account with conflict of interest and originally had a highly promotional tone with professional photos that also appear on official Swire websites.

This article is an advertisement for a "place" invented by a corporation in order to boost profits. What little substantive content there is can be easily incorporated into the Wan Chai article. Citobun (talk) 13:59, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I don't feel either way for this article, but I am very interested in the claim that Swire might have been engaging in COI and possibly WP:paid editing, since a lot of Hong Kong (and mainland Chinese) articles look very suspicious. Mind sharing your findings? _dk (talk) 23:55, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can you demonstrate notability through in-depth coverage in a variety of reliable secondary sources?

After an examination of IMDB, seems to fail general notability guidelines, and specially fails to assert WP:BIO and WP:NACTOR. On the few films, on which she get a listing, she is not even on the main cast list. Probably a young actress. scope_creep 14:15, 27 July 2016 (UTC)

This article passed the WP:GNG and WP:BASIC criteria, therefore we consider this article notable, and therefore, not to be deleted, and deserves to have an article.
So whether it passed or failed in all other criteria does not affect its general notability stated above.
Next, this article clearly passed 1 of 3 of the WP:NACTOR criteria.
I cannot say if this person has significant followers and if she has some innovative contributions to entertainment, but we cannot deny that she has at least four notable significant roles in three anime television shows (Etotama, Sakura Trick, and New Game!) and an anime special (List of Assassination Classroom characters.
According to Twitter, she has 26.4 thousand followers. https://twitter.com/todamegumi
Google's search engine recognizes her.
Additionally, Megumi Toda has both Japanese and Chinese corresponding wiki articles. If we delete this article, we may also delete those two articles especially those doesn't strictly follow the rules.
After the article creation, it has an average of 14 views per day according to https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/. Not a good number, but a good indication that the article is visited. I credit New Game! for that. And in its Japanese and Chinese wikipedia articles, it is visited more than 600 times and more than 20 times, respectively, last 30 days.
"On the few films, on which she get a listing, she is not even on the main cast list." - She is on the main cast list on three shows.
And lastly, I wanna correct that she is a voice actress, which means, she uses her voice. IMDb does not know how to distinguish an actress and a voice actress. They're different. IMDb lists only five credits, one of them is significant (New Game!). CunningRabbitXenon07 (talk) 15:49, 27 July 2016 (UTC) ))[reply]

Scope creep, can you look at the JA Wikipedia references? The cast announcements from the English talk page don't help notability at all. The interviews might be okay. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 17:45, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
My first look through the JA sources is that they're mostly cast announcements as well. I was hoping famitsu or natalie might have some more coverage, but it does not look that promising. The theme songs are promising although they are all collaborations: Oricon rankings under Megumi Toda solo Oricon page with collaborations Soruaru BOB (Etotama cast) has a ranked single [23] so does fourfolium (New Game cast) [24] and Idolmaster [25]. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 18:47, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I hate to comment in these Afd which I've nominated, but what roles? Show me that one role @Xezbeth, in which she has a major part, with a valid source. You need to provide evidence dude, it is not acceptable just to make a statement with no backing evidence. I'll take a look. scope_creep 08:50, 13 August 2016 (UTC)

Comment @AngusWOOF, 1: is a cast member. 2: Is a ticket portal and aggregation site for show. It discusses hold a show which she will appear in, where you can ticket. 3. Describes here appearing as a guest, on a promotional radio show, which has been running 12 times Megumi Toda appeared in the broadcast of the guest. @Knowledgekid87 I wouldn't knock IMDB. Its very accurate. So in the end up, I still think she fails WP:BIO and WP:NACTOR spefically. scope_creep 09:13, 13 August 2016 (UTC)

IMDB is generally not a reliable source, per Wikipedia:External links/Perennial websites#IMDb. I would trust Behind the voice actors before I trust IMBD, as any roles there with green check marks next to them link to screenshots with confirmed credits. (An example: [26]) - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 16:06, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
IMDB cast lists are not reliable because they are user-submitted. However, it can be a starting point to find the actual episode which shows her participation in credits. On the character lists, New Game she is listed 6th, Etotama 11th, Sakura Trick 6th among the main characters so those are large ensembles, which is different from headlining a show, but not a minor supporting role, considering she sings on the series' theme songs. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 20:49, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
And Wikipedia isn't also user submitted? Your essentially saying here that Wikipedia is not reliable or more accurately, inaccurate. Possibly they were worrying about peer and cross checking, but essentially both use the exact same methods to post and update, by multiple users concurrently. It is a false tautology, or false equivalence to suggest otherwise. Just because some policy wonks have written an policy article saying it is not notable, possibly because they don't fully understand how content is generated and the semantic web work, doesn't make it true. They are merely guidelines, at the end of the day. I think this is getting silly. I've already explained above this is the first time she has sung. The first time. She is newbie, and as such doesn't assert WP:GNG Scope creep (talk) 00:38, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
She currently does not meet notability as a solo singer, but her collaborative group efforts have charted. It doesn't matter if she is a newbie or has yet to make a solo singing debut. As for how to reference content from other Wikipedia pages, there's WP:CIRC. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 03:53, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
What group efforts? I think possibly WP:SUBNOT applies. She needs to be notable on here own standing to be able to assert WP:GNG. @AngusWOOF, I don't think you understand what I saying above how content is created in the web, and how so much much is duplicated. Thats ok. Scope creep (talk) 09:38, 18 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
My point is that a newbie singer can still be notable The group efforts are nice background information prior to the solo career, and it still depends on whether the artist's debut single/album has some decent notability. That's all. We don't need to discuss how similar or different user-editing is on IMDB compared to Wikipedia. I'm sure there are parts very much like Wikipedia.

Per WP:PROFRINGE. I am not suggesting that the article's author intended to promote this fringe theory. Rather, this article should be deleted because it is supported only by sources which contain non-verifiable original thought. WP:BLP may very well come into play, as well. Brianga (talk) 17:09, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What, specifically, is not verifiable Ethanlu121? The Washington Post saying that the conspiracy theorists used a looped video to create this meme? That's not verifiable? The Daily Beast saying this meme originated from the notorious conspiracy theorist Paul Joseph Watson? That's not verifiable? Snopes debunking the conspiracy theory? That's not verifiable? Did you actually read the article? LavaBaron (talk) 17:28, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Note to closing admin: LavaBaron (talkcontribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD.
As for your references argument, I disagree. The fact that the fringe theory is discussed on Snopes or even the Washington Post doesn't change that the underlying ideas are original thought and non-verifiable. As for the remainder of your argument, it seems like you are saying that Wikipedia should be used to debunk or propagate certain ideas; for that, I refer you to WP:SOAP.Brianga (talk) 17:37, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Respectfully, I believe you are incorrect. The mere fact that non-verifiable thought exists is not excludable from WP if it is the source of widespread coverage in RS which covers the existence of the thought rather than the thought itself. See Majestic 12 or any other conspiracy theory as non-verifiable and bizarre as this distasteful allegation; the fact is, it's become part of the cultural milieux. That may be a sad and depressing testament on society, but it's a fact as the article establishes. Also, please sign your posts. LavaBaron (talk) 17:35, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Edison if you want to support Delete, that's fine; if you want to speedily delete it, okay. But please don't chill the conversation by alluding to some forthcoming "punishment" I may suffer. Instead, let's have a vibrant and mutually respectful debate on the issue in which we exchange ideas, trade opinions, contemplate each others viewpoints, and arrive at individual conclusions that we accept may differ from those of our fellow editors. Thanks. LavaBaron (talk) 18:00, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Please reread my post carefully. I pointed out that the community took very seriously a previous humorous mention of an allegation from a candidate's debate forum. There was no tolerance shown of a BLP violation just because the victim was a political candidate.There is no statement, prediction or inference that you or others will be punished. I only called for a vicious BLP violation to be removed. Edison (talk) 18:18, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I wrote a "vicious" article? Got it. So much for a mutually respectful dialog. Guess we're going full radioactive. (And how anyone could even think an article which is essentially an index of facts that debunk a vicious rumor is, itself, "vicious" is utterly beyond me. Going into this I thought there was a chance I'd be accused of being a Clinton apologist; the idea someone would think this was a Clinton attack article is really throwing me for a loop.) Off-topic, but there's been such a frustrating trend here lately with editors coming in and immediately unsheathing their battle axes to start swinging instead of taking a couple deep breaths, having a cold glass of water, and sitting down for a discussion. LavaBaron (talk) 18:21, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You have twice attributed to me things I did not write. Stop it. I did not call it a vicious article as you claim. I said it was a vicious rumor. Again, please read posts carefully before you reply to them. Do not create strawmen. Edison (talk) 19:17, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Speaking of reading posts carefully - you said (quoting verbatim) it was "a vicious BLP violation" not a "vicious rumor" [32]. In fact, not once did you use the phrase "vicious rumor" prior to your last reply in which you claim you did; you did, however, describe my article as a "serious BLP violation" and "vicious BLP violation" [33][34] which leaves very little ambiguity as to what you are referring as the term "BLP violation" only exists on WP and unambiguously refers to a WP article.
But I AGF you misspoke and meant "vicious rumor", not "vicious BLP violation", so no harm done now that that's clarified. Thank you for taking the time to respond. LavaBaron (talk) 19:50, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The unfounded claim that a presidential candidate (or anyone else) has brain damage is itself a vicious BLP violation, and has no place in any in Wikipedia. At WP:BLP it is clear that "BLP violation" can include content in an article, as opposed to the entire article as you state, when it says "Administrators may enforce the removal of clear BLP violations with page protection...." which would prevent some statement being re-added to an article, but would leave the article. Edison (talk) 21:10, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So you didn't say "vicious rumor" then? LavaBaron (talk) 09:48, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. WP should not be a tool to manipulate the public. It should be a tool to inform the public and that's what this article does - it collates all of the factual claims that debunk these ridiculous rumors into one concise, easily accessible place. With the help of WP's reach, this article had the potential to slow the spread of ignorance. Within a week or two, people googling Clinton + Brain Damage would have landed here, where they would see these claims countered with facts from RS like the WaPo and Daily Beast. Instead, once it's deleted, they'll be landing on the Alex Jones website where they'll get pounded with uncontested conspiracy clap-trap. You've done great work on WP, Specto73, but I'd ask you reconsider your !vote. I know you mean well but by hitting delete the only people you're helping are Alex Jones, Frank Gaffney, and Dylan Howard; they'd like nothing more than resources like this swept under the rug. LavaBaron (talk) 13:51, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Respectfully, you still seem to think that Wikipedia should be a soapbox (or a counter-soapbox?) rather than an encyclopedia. Brianga (talk) 15:52, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Respectfully, evisceration of ignorance and the democratization of knowledge are normative goals of the Wikipedia project; spreading opinion constitutes "advocacy" as defined in WP:SOAPBOX, spreading knowledge does not. If I were calling for the maintenance of an article that rebuts criticism of Clinton's policy positions, that would be WP:SOAPBOX. However, maintaining an article that provides the scientific rational consensus regarding a popular, false conspiracy theory is not advocacy, it is knowledge dissemination - the very purpose of WP.

  • Keep - actually, think I am going to go with keep here on reflection, the goal.com article plus the career summary in an Irish national newspaper as observed by Nfitz indicate wider coverage.

Not really interested in what guidelines say. A subject is either notable or not and I don't need guidelines to tell me so. Plus "guidelines" are guidelines not rules or laws. They are not carved in stone. Horgan plays in top level football in his country and has played in European qualifiers. That is surely notable.

Relisting for further discussion following a NPASR closure where there wasn't enough participation after three relists. The issue here remains that the band has no strong claim to passage of WP:NMUSIC, and no strong reliable source coverage -- and we're much stricter about both of those things now than we were when this was created ten years ago. This was a one-off collaboration between musicians who were previously or subsequently associated with more notable bands than this one ever was -- but the problem is that the separation creates competing candidates for a potential redirect: Ron Hawkins as the only member who actually has any WP:BLP notability as a standalone topic in his own right (and the sole reason this band ever satisfied any earlier version of NMUSIC in the first place), or FemBots as the band that the other two members subsequently went on to form. And because of that target conflict, I'd still prefer to just delete rather than redirecting this. Bearcat (talk) 15:09, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dig Circus have already been merged, as I did check deeply enough to determine that they cannot be sourced up to contemporary standards anymore. And you still never answered my question last time as to why a redirect to FemBots should be privileged over a redirect to Hawkins — Hawkins is (a) the only one of the three who actually has his own independent notability as a valid topic for a standalone BLP separate from any band he was in, (b) the sole reason this band was ever a legitimate article topic in the first place (because "independently notable member" was an NMUSIC criterion, while "members who went on to form another band but weren't independently notable outside of that" was not), and (c) overwhelmingly the likelier candidate for why anybody might ever actually have heard of this obscure local one-off project in the first place (because he was significantly more famousish than either of the FemBots to start with, and still is). So what I'm still waiting for is an explanation of why FemBots should be the preferred redirect target: why on earth would all of that count for less than "vocalist + guitarist"?
It's entirely possible to use the AllMusic bio to source the fact that this project existed in both Hawkins and the FemBots articles, which can still directly link to each other in that context, while deleting the title because there are two competing topics with valid claims to a redirect — but you're simply ignoring the fact that Hawkins has an at least fully equal, and arguably stronger, claim to the redirect as compared to FemBots, and I don't understand why.

Delete. This is a radio station which was granted a license in 2013 to launch, but has now had its authorization expire still unbuilt -- meaning that it can never launch without starting over from scratch with a new application that it would be substantially less likely to actually get reapproved. (Both of the company's other two stations on 600 AM and 940 AM are also set to expire unbuilt within the next six to eight weeks, but their licenses are still technically active as of today.) In truth, there's a longtime pattern here of sanding down the edges of WP:NMEDIA by starting articles about radio stations as soon as they get their license approvals, even though they don't yet meet NMEDIA's second condition regarding "established broadcast history" -- but this kind of scenario is exactly why we need to put a lid on that and start limiting "licensed but not yet launched" stations to draftspace instead of permitting them in mainspace. And for the record, the sourcing here is three-fifths blogs and one-fifth the CRTC license itself, leaving only one news article for reliable source coverage -- and even that one news article isn't about this station itself, but was an overview of all the new radio stations that got licensed in Montreal's 2013 "Let's Repopulate the AM Band!" bonanza, with only a blurb's worth of content about this one. So there's not much case for deeming this exempt from NMEDIA because WP:GNG — all we need about this anymore is one short paragraph about TTP in Media in Montreal.

Keep per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. While I'm personally against the use of SCHOOLOUTCOMES in any discussion, including AfD, it's been used to keep high school articles in the past, as long as the school has been confirmed to exist; this high school is confirmed to exist, so it stays.

  • In all my years of editing on Wikipedia, this is honestly the first time I've been accused of sockpuppetry. Well done. Of course this is absurd, and I'm happy to find an administrator who can look at IP logs to see if there's any evidence of sockpuppetry. Since you don't have evidence, your "strike" of Mauramauramaura's comment is talk page vandalism, and I will revert it.

The result was delete. Per WP:BLP. Given that serious concerns have been raised that this living person even exists, or did what the article says he did, the "keep" (or "merge") side would have needed to address the issue of source quality at some depth. Most don't, and instead we get irrelevant commentary such as claims of bias or something about a "voice in the wilderness".

If the sourcing issue had been addressed, on balance we'd probably have consensus to cover him, at least for now, at Muslim supporters of Israel, so any recreation of this or similar content (with unimpeachable sources) should probably first happen there.  Sandstein  20:08, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not really, its been repeatedly discussed with mixed results at WP:RSN, eg Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_75#Arutz_Sheva. I wouldnt use Arutz Sheva for the day of the week personally, and if they publish something that other sources with a better reputation dont, even those sources on the same ideological spectrum (Jerusalem Post, Times of Israel) then I would think one would be wise to be cautious in using it. nableezy - 17:41, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I posted a link to RS/N, not my personal views, Sherlock. Having a large circulation does *not*edited a reliable source make, otherwise National Enquirer or The Sun would be reliable sources. Arutz Sheva has a reputation for being the voice of the settlers, but not one for accuracy or fact checking. nableezy - 19:38, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, you did post your personal views. You even wrote the word "personally", in that you would not use "Arutz Sheva for the day of the week". Also, to be fair, I think you meant "Having a large circulation does not a reliable source make". KamelTebaast 19:58, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I posted that personal view.

*Keep [by creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD]

The idea to merge into Muslim supporters of Israel is, in itself, argument to keep. In that entire article, and specifically in the Israel section, not one youth is listed, let alone in the nature, fervor, and methodologies of Satri’s pro-Israel advocacy. The fact that Satri, since age 12, has basically stood alone against physical violence and death threats (including from his own village, Hamas, and those in Ramallah), makes this notable. The only question is, when Sarti is murdered and a Wikipedia article is written about him, how long will it take for the Wikiwashing debate to ensue that the article should be merged with Israeli-Palestinian conflict (2015-present) or List_of_violent_incidents_in_the_Israeli–Palestinian_conflict,_[add date here]? KamelTebaast 18:36, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I hail his courage and him standing alone against people in his village and family. But, the encyclopedia is about sources and verifiability. As soon as there any no reliable sources in either language, what is the rationale for keeping an independant article? Arthistorian1977 (talk) 07:50, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This is English Wikipedia so, as far as I understand, we must not find Hebrew sources for every story that occurs in Israel. That said, Arutz Sheva, as you pointed out above, is a reliable source from Israel and is in both Hebrew and English. KamelTebaast 15:40, 27 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To equal Norge Idag with Norwegian Christians, would be like equaling Westboro Baptist Church with US Christians. Norge Idag have had campaigns agains gays in "leadership" position, at the same time as they advocate a centre, where they "cure disease by prayers". And here they write that Elor Azariya, (the soldier who killed a Palestinian at Tel Rumeida recently,) did so as the Palestinian was "apparently about to detonate a bomb". Look at the video of that shooting and tell me if that is even close to the truth. Huldra (talk) 20:43, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Huldra, did you actually write "truth"? Please share with me the link to a Wikipedia policy that discusses applying "truth" to articles.

"Mainstream" may not be the correct word to use, but examples like News of the World should by now lead you to find better evidence of reliability than circulation. However, in this case the reliability of A7 doesn't need to be questioned, because all they did was quote the Algemeiner story. Who cares? Who has a Wikipedia article based 100% on a single interview? The guy did nothing except express an opinion. Everyone has opinions. Zerotalk 12:58, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Correct, and that means we should apply WP:SINGLEEVENT. And since the event was just being interviewed, there is nothing here to support an article. Zerotalk 11:35, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This isn't a single event. Satri is a young writer, which should be better reflected in the article, and these two publishings here and here are what inspired the subsequent published interview here and secondary news story in Arutz Sheva here. KamelTebaast 16:43, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Since there is a recent tendency to confirm articles that egregiously fail WP:BIO, WP:NOTABILITY WP:EVENT, and a dozen other principles, it is evident that the concept of a plebiscite has trounced policy criteria. Practically, anything survives because you get arguments from policy balanced by opinions that just say, regardless of policy, keep. Perhaps the policy guidelines should be abolished.

No, but it's by far the easiest, and here's why. WP:NMUSIC has three main sets of notability policies (for musicians, albums, and songs). The one that applies here is WP:NALBUM. The problem with relying solely on coverage is this - the coverage needs to be WP:RS, and that's often hard to determine. For example, this sources given here may be OK, but some of the stuff I've seen in other articles frim the same sources is or borders on gossip - one of the sources on Ruby Gyang was all about why her baby daddy wasn't in her video, and I'm sorry, but that's not appropriate encyclopedic material. Gossip/tabloid coverage in a source calls into question the quality of the source overall, and it's not "because it's Nigeria" - we don't take any gossip rag or tabloid from any country as WP:RS, and there have been a lot of discussions on whether sources are reliable. We have a an entire noticeboard for that.
Honestly, some of the sources just aren't helpful in determining notability via coverage. I read the 360Nobs piece, and it hardly talks about the album; it talks about everything going on around the album, and that's closer to coverage of the label than it is the album. BellaNaija is also not a quality source once one reads the content - it's a transcript of two radio hosts talking back and forth, not a professionally-written article. The Daily Mirror review was written by the webmaster for the site, so it's hard to say whether it's under the same sort of editorial control. So there's legitimate questions here, and they are the same questions that apply to all sources. However, all of the other criteria - charting, a gold/platinum record, major music award, national airplay, etc., is objective - it either is, or it is not. The artist/record/song either got the award or didn't. The artist/record/song either got the chart position or didn't. There's no subjectivity involved.
The Drake stuff was probably because we have a policy that says "existence is not notability"; I don't think Drake had all thirty of those singles chart, and the fact that they were released isn't sufficient for an article - we are very clear on this. As far as songs go, charting is about the only reason to have an article on a song - otherwise there's not much to say that couldn't be said as part of the album article, even if it's soundtrack placement. The stand-alone songs we do have articles on are usually because they're significant to the genre ("Rapper's Delight"), or have been covered extensively ("Knockin' on Heaven's Door"). Even looking at List of songs recorded by the Beatles, not everything there has its own article because of the Bealtes alone. Some have no article, and some redirect to an article on the song independent of any group. That may be a bad choice of example, because almost everything the Beatles did was extensively written about, from song composition on up, in book-length form. Even Because (Beatles song) has ten sources and has been covered over 20 times. MSJapan (talk) 18:15, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No matter what you say, you cannot deny the fact that this album meets WP:GNG. Again I repeat, the websites I cited here have editorial oversight. How many sources does one need to provide before you're going to agree that this album meets WP:GNG? An article doesn't need to have a fix number of sources in order for it to be considered notable. The fact of the matter is that this album has been discussed in multiple (more than one) independent reliable sources.  Versace1608  Wanna Talk? 19:15, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Article is about a small, non-notable fire that was under 1,000 acres and received only local coverage. Per WP:WILDFIRE-GUIDE, fires over 1,000 acres are notable. This one is not. Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 18:38, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This does not appear to be an article with a notable subject. Additionally, I have Googled "TuxKart", and I have seen a few mentions of the game in the "News" section (most [if not all] of which are from unreliable sources). It should be deleted or merged into or redirected to SuperTuxKart, whose subject does appear to be notable. Gamingforfun365 (talk) 20:38, 3 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Another mixtape by a non-notable artist whose article is also at AFD. A9 doesn't apply because the article exists, although it will once that article is deleted. Tazerdadog (talk) 00:33, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry - it's NOT an A9. The artiste currently has an article (also at AfD). While that article exists, A9 is out of the question. A9 depends on non-notable recording AND artiste without article. Peridon (talk) 11:11, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
While it's not an A9 candidate right now, we are probably already at the point where we should invoke the snowball clause, and move on with more productive matters.Tazerdadog (talk) 11:35, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Lemongirl942 – "unsourced CRYSTALBALL"... that probably makes it more of a WP:CLOUDYBALL. But yes, delete for failing WP:NALBUM, WP:TOOSOON, WP:GNG and probably a few others as well. Richard3120 (talk) 00:19, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
