Jonathan Dach[edit]

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

Procedural Nomination / Nom Not a delete !Vote - An editor purporting to be the reputation management consultant for the Dach family [1] has requested this page be deleted as a violation of BLP1, stating that Dach is only known for one thing (his alleged involvement in the Summit of the Americas prostitution scandal). I am nominating it on the COI editor's behalf as a courtesy. The editor's rationale can be read in more detail here. LavaBaron (talk) 23:38, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep WP:BLP1E allows a person involved in a single event to be the subject of an article if "the event was significant." Given the breadth and international scope of global media coverage of the SOA prostitution scandal, I believe this event meets the BLP1E threshold for inclusion. Sources cited - which include the Washington Post and other reputable news outlets - deal with subject specifically and exclusively, and not merely in passing. LavaBaron (talk) 23:38, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment—Hello, I am the Dach family consultant LavaBaron mentions, and I appreciate the willingness to make this nomination in spite of the disagreement. For what it's worth, I was asked not to simply have it deleted, but to determine whether it could be ameliorated. In my own reading of the news stories mentioning Mr. Dach and relevant Wikipedia policy, I came to the conclusion that deletion was the best outcome. I've explained the circumstances more fully on Talk:Jonathan Dach, but since BLP1E is the key issue, let's consider its three conditions:

We should generally avoid having an article on a person when each of three conditions is met:

If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event.

If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual. Biographies in these cases can give undue weight to the event and conflict with neutral point of view. In such cases, it is usually better to merge the information and redirect the person's name to the event article.

If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented. John Hinckley, Jr., for example, has a separate article because the single event he was associated with, the Reagan assassination attempt, was significant and his role was both substantial and well documented.

These are easily satisfied:

The reports are all in a single context: the news stories mentioning Mr. Dach, which are now approximately 18 months old, all relate to an allegation that the White House tried to interfere with a DHS investigator's claim against Mr. Dach, who had previously been cleared of wrongdoing by the White House, and the investigator soon after resigned amid questions about his credibility.
Mr. Dach is otherwise low-profile and clearly intends to remain so: the "biography" of Mr. Dach as it appears in Wikipedia contains scant details about his background and his career, and clearly gives "undue weight to the event"—in large part because WP:RSs have little else to say about him. Mr. Dach was a private figure before the Washington Post story that publicized his name, and even there he was not mentioned until the 11th paragraph. In the years since, he has remained out of the public eye.
His role was neither substantial nor well documented: the merits of the claims against him, including the Post's decision to name him, were called into question by media outlets as diverse as The Huffington Post and Fox News. In a report only weeks later, The New York Times chose not to name him, referring only to a "a volunteer member of a White House advance team". The shaky nature of the allegation and his passive role in the controversy suggested the Times felt it was improper to mention him by name. As far as I can tell, they never did.

That The New York Times chose to omit Mr. Dach's name from its coverage, combined with the dearth of WP:BIO coverage about him otherwise, as well as the satisfaction of all three conditions, strongly indicates this is a clear-cut BLP1E case, and I trust that editors will exercise their best judgment in this matter.

Comment I respectfully question that your client, Mr Dach, "clearly intends to remain ... low-profile" when, just today, he had birthday wishes published to him from the editorial staff of Politico [2], a major beltway publication, and he's regularly photographed mugging for the camera in official, public-directed communiques from United States ambassadors [3]. This isn't exactly the M.O. of a shy hermit who just wishes the world would leave him alone. Mr Dach is a member of Society, which is fine, but isn't really compatible with the "simple hobbit from the Shire" frame. LavaBaron (talk) 06:58, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reply: Politico's Playbook wishes "happy birthday" to literally thousands of Washingtonians every year, most non-notable; at least 18 people are mentioned in this list. (But how's that for timing, eh?) Second, the photo you mention is from December 2014, and it's the same one you uploaded to include in the existing article, in which he is furthest from the camera. WWB Too (Talk · COI) 13:33, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sur-Reply: I counted and they only wished Happy Birthday to 297 people last year, not "thousands." And, Dach is featured in multiple ambassadorial communiques. I appreciate the 30 year-old Dach's dad is buttering your bread, but we should not be intentionally deceptive. LavaBaron (talk) 16:51, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Mugging for the camera", LavaBaron? Really? I see no grimaces, attention drawing behavior or gang signs. Just an out of focus group photo of him with his boss and another American and several other people in the Congo. Do you really think that a person becomes a public figure if a political blog mentions them in a long list of birthday greetings? Give us a break. And did you really count all the greetings for a whole year? Why would you bother do that unless you are deeply invested in this hit piece? Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 02:55, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment First of all WWB_Too, I would like to thank you for handling your conflict of interest appropriately. You are correct in that this discussion revolves around WP:BLP1E. Additionally, I think that the first two points are satisfied - Dach is clearly only known for his involvement in the scandal and is otherwise low-profile. ~~Your third bullet point is what makes me think this is a keep. Dach's role appears to be both substantial and well-documented. Therefore, I think this is a Weak Keep on this basis.~~ The claims of undue weight are not correct in my opinion, but this is the wrong forum to discuss them. Cheers, Tazerdadog (talk) 01:26, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Upon further reflection this is a textbook case of WP:BLP1E, and I'm not sure what I was thinking above. This should ideally Redirect to 6th_Summit_of_the_Americas#U.S._security_misconduct, but failing that, Delete .Tazerdadog (talk) 05:06, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete. I find it hard to imagine a more perfect example of WP:BLP1E . I also think the family consultant is stepping on his own feet here. If there was less of a paid editing suggestion this would be an obvious delete. GRuban (talk) 02:50, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:BLP1E. The lead of the article clearly states alleged involvement, so if his involvement in the event is only being alleged, then we don't need an article about a living individual filled with implications and allegations of wrongdoing.-- Isaidnoway (talk) 03:37, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Fulfills our GNG. No clear BLP violation. (Everything is alleged unless convicted or admitted. But we don't use judicial standards to determine if something is Wiki-worthy. As no crime was committed by Dach, this will always be just an allegation.) That said, I appreciate Dach's dad wants to get rid of this article and don't view him negatively just for using his money and power to attempt to do so. BlueSalix (talk) 03:52, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@BlueSalix: Sure we all resent paid and conflict of interest editing. But perhaps you should come up with a better reason to keep a gross attack page on an entirely non-notable living person. AusLondonder (talk) 22:40, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as flash-in-the-pan BLP1E, possibly retaining a redirect to the E. First, thanks to all who are handling the COI in a very correct (letter and spirit) way. I agree with their point that the person was associated with the event, and reported in reliable sources as such. But indeed it's also reliably sourced that the person was cleared? And that there is (apparently) nothing else reliably-sourced to say about the person? That's a great example of only "notability by association" or not independently notably exccept in relation to this event. If there were anything else notable or in-the-media about this person, I'd say keep; if the accusation against this person in particular or his personal response and individual followup/fallout were of reliable-source interest, I'd say keep. But "some guy is accused, and cleared" doesn't alone make that guy notable. DMacks (talk) 05:04, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Was he cleared? LavaBaron (talk) 05:56, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Was there a credible allegation? (Would that negate BLP1E even if there was?) WWB Too (Talk · COI) 06:13, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, an undisputably RS source (the Washington Post) with a real-world, legal personality that could be subject to libel action for false or malicious reporting, conducted an investigative inquiry and made an unambiguous allegation, and has stood by that allegation without retraction or correction. That is the definition of a credible accusation. The WaPo's investigation was separately confirmed by Slate, another RS. This isn't exactly idle blog chatter. LavaBaron (talk) 06:46, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No one disputes the DHS investigator planned to include Mr. Dach in his report, but as the facts show (yet the existing article curiously does not) the matter ended when the investigator resigned following serious questions about his judgment and ethics. As I explained above, when the NY Times reported on the administration controversy, it opted to leave Mr. Dach's name out, without sacrificing any informational value. Wikipedia would be wise to heed its caution. WWB Too (Talk · COI) 13:40, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That was the investigator in the Secret Service scandal, not the Dach probe. DHS has more than one investigator, the article to which you linked says nothing about Dach. LavaBaron (talk) 16:46, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Only one investigator was named in the press coverage, and that is the individual whose resignation is the subject of the NYT article linked, which indeed says nothing about Mr. Dach because it only refers to a "volunteer member of a White House advance team". And there was no "Dach probe." WWB Too (Talk · COI) 18:54, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

With all due respect, WWB_Too, you will be better off if you stop arguing. The case is obvious, textbook BLP1E, so you're going to win unless you change this into a referendum on paid editing. Which you could do. So, please, don't. --GRuban (talk) 19:01, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - As per the obvious BLP1E concerns; there are not nearly enough sources available to write an actual biography of Dach, as opposed to a COATRACK about an alleged scandal. Moreover, the "alleged scandal" has entirely disappeared from reliable sources; that suggests that his alleged involvement is not of lasting interest or notability beyond the event. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 15:18, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or GREATLY trim Either the article should be deleted, or the prostitution scandal should be reduced to a sentence or two so as not to be WP:UNDUE . The vast majority of the section is a WP:SUMMARY of the scandal, and not directly relevant to Dach's biography or even involvement in the scandal. Gaijin42 (talk) 15:16, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The astonishing thing about this deletion debate regarding this foul BLP violation of an article is that some experienced editors are unable to see that it is a textbook example of BLP1E. Please remember that our BLP policy applies to every single living person ranging from mass murderers to winners of the Nobel Peace Prize. There is no exception that allows us to name, blame and shame a young man just because he has wealthy, society-connected parents and we do not build biographies around uncorroborated and forcefully denied allegations that maybe someone might possibly have had a legally registered overnight guest in their hotel room one night. Gossip, innuendo and Buzzfeed clickbait are utterly inappropriate here on Wikipedia, and this article has countless problems which do not need to be itemized in detail since it needs to be deleted ASAP as a BLP1E and a violation of a core content policy.

Strong Delete Almost a candidate for speedy per WP:ATTACK. The suggestion by LavaBaron that this page should be kept because Dach received less than a sentence of a birthday wish amongst a long list of others from a website that basically serves as a Washington DC staff newsletter is preposterous and a serious error of judgement. I have never seen a more textbook case of WP:BLP1E. The only reason people want to keep this gossip is that we resent paid and conflict of interest editing. However, this article is the worst kind of gutter yellow journalism (and pathetic moralising "Oh my dear God, no sex please, we're Americans") that any family would wish to protect themselves from.

Delete per BLP1E. His name appears as a one-sentence afterthought in the last line of 6th Summit of the Americas#U.S. security misconduct. There is no doubt that the event was significant, but his role in it does not appear to be all that significant. If the details of that event were trimmed or removed then this article is barely a stub on a non-notable person. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 00:35, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Article is very well referenced, but they are all from sources that are not reliable for Wikipedia. Some appear to be blogs, some look like press releases, and the rest are brief mentions.

I believe all the information listed on Anuja Kapur's wikipedia page says it all. She is a lady of honour and respect. What she has achieved in life is of her hard work, knowledge and strength that she carries throughout her. I am a great fan of her as I have seen her on news channels and read her major articles on newspapers and magazines. I believe that a lady like her is a standing example to our mother, sister, daughter that girls are no less than boys and there is no gender or age to achieve what she has achieved.

John G. Brunner[edit]

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

It is clear that this page does not meet the requirements of Wikipedia's Notability Requirements for a Politician. Specifically, Wiki states "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.'"^[1] Mr. Brunner is currently an unelected candidate running in the Republican primary for the 2016 Missouri Governor's Race. He is not currently a part of the general election for the position. But more importantly, the majority of his coverage is based upon his unsuccessful run for the Senatorial nomination in Missouri in 2012.^[2] This coverage is brief and it is not significant. Moreover, it would seem to fall under Wikipedia's Notability Requirements that "trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability.""^[3] As it stands, Brunner does not have enough notability as a politician to warrant a stand-alone page.

In addition, Brunner has already been removed from the site once before as a non-notable CEO.^[4] His past history as a CEO was considered by the community as insufficient in meeting Wikipedia's Notability requirements and therefore that history cannot be used to establish his current notability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rozmoff (talk • contribs) 22:43, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

While US state gubernatorial elections are covered widely enough that the actual candidate on the general election ballot has a chance of satisfying WP:GNG regardless of whether they win or lose on election day, as of today Brunner is not the general election candidate but is merely one of four declared candidates in the Republican Party primary contest. That, however, is not a claim of notability that gets a person into Wikipedia — and nothing else here gives him enough preexisting notability to pass another inclusion rule.

~~Keep~~ - the trick is there are two different articles, Soyuz-2 (the 1968 mission) and Soyuz 2 (the rocket). Having such close titles is probably a poor choice, but that is not a matter for AfD. I respectfully suggest that JFG withdraws their nomination, if (as I assume) they mistakenly thought the articles had been merged. Tigraan^{Click here to contact me} 11:56, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be some misunderstanding here: indeed there are two articles and they refer to vastly different subjects: a 1968 test flight and a current rocket family; they were never considered for merging. However the dab page has only two entries and one of them (the rocket) is a primary topic, so according to the WP:TWODABS guidelines it is sufficient to have hatnotes in each article pointing to the other. Quote: If there are only two topics to which a given title might refer, and one is the primary topic, then a disambiguation page is not needed—it is sufficient to use a hatnote on the primary topic article, pointing to the other article. (This means that readers looking for the second topic are spared the extra navigational step of going through the disambiguation page.) Now the existence of the dab page doesn't disturb me per se, it just happens to be useless, as the hatnotes are already in place. @DeVerm: @Tigraan: I hope this answers your concerns. — JFG ^talk 14:04, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough and sorry for the misunderstanding.

I do agree that, as it stands now, the DAB page is useless, and I do think the rocket is primary topic. But the titles are not really well-organized.

I suggest to move the page about 1968 to Soyuz 2 (1968 mission) or another such title and redirect Soyuz 2 → Soyuz-2. Leave Soyuz-2 in place, no DAB but hatnotes both ways. I do not know if there is a relevant MOS entry but it seems that such close titles are likely to cause confusion even if the mission has a space and the rocket a dash in all sources.

In the unlikely event consensus emerges that a DAB page is needed, put it at Soyuz-2 or Soyuz 2 and redirect the other, and move both pages elsewhere (Soyuz 2 (space mission) and Soyuz 2 (rocket)?), as that is still a superior option to the current state of things (a DAB that none will ever reach).

Tigraan^{Click here to contact me} 16:03, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I must be old because for me the 1968 mission would be the primary article, but I have no objection to it being the other way around. In fact, I completely agree with the construction as described by Tigraan. DeVerm (talk) 18:52, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as there's nothing actually convincing of her own notability article apart from the group, nothing convincing from the information given. SwisterTwister talk 21:08, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: It appears that all members of Kara (South Korean band) have stand-alone articles. This one is reasonably extensive and sourced, she seems to have three solo albums. Adequate indicia of notability plus a redirect to Kara (South Korean band) would put WP:UNDUE weight on one performer. If deletion is going to happen, then the other six or seven biographies of the group also probably should be AfD'd and perhaps List of members of Kara (South Korean band) could be created. But frankly, I think this one is a keep, as are all the others. I don't follow k-pop, but the coverage seems adequate to me. Montanabw^(talk) 06:52, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Montanabw Adequate indicia of notability plus a redirect to Kara (South Korean band) would put WP:UNDUE weight on one performer—I don't understand this part? 2NE1 is just as famous as Kara, but Minzy's article was deleted because she is not independatly notable. Kim Sung-hee didn't had article until earlier this year. She had some OST songs, but their notability hasn't been established. Also, as I said before, none of the article's sources are reliable. It also wouldn't make sense to delete the notable members of Kara because one is less notable. Random86 (talk) 07:37, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - It is equally ridiculous to delete one member and leave all the others. Your logic fails. Seriously, would you delete Mick Fleetwood because he's not done as much work outside of the band as other members of Fleetwood Mac? Montanabw^(talk) 08:31, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    - Then why does WP:MUSBIO say "Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band"? Plenty of non-notable band members have been deleted before this. Random86 (talk) 09:06, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      - I fail to see any real distinction between this person and the other past and present members of Kara. I say they all stay or they all go into a unified list. Instead of wasting bandwidth on this, why not create List of members of Kara. All of this deletionist stuff on these borderline cases is really quite unnecessary. No need to throw away people's work when it can be salvaged in some fashion. Montanabw ^(talk) 01:54, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        Well, Nicole Jung for example has a notable solo career in both South Korea and Japan, with charted albums/singles. Some of the other members have acting careers. I really don't understand this "all stay or all go" idea. There are many K-pop idol groups with some notable members and some non-notable members. Even if a List of members of Kara article is created, the notable members will still have their own articles. Random86 (talk) 04:33, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        I frankly think that this article should be kept. It seems POINT-y to nominate just one when ALL the others in the group have separate articles. There is adequate indicia of notability. Montanabw ^(talk) 08:49, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete None sources referenced in the article are reliable. Google search gets more of the same. Gab4gab (talk) 13:59, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. It is not unusual for one member of a group to not be individually notable when others are (and it's possible that others need to be nominated for AfD as well). This particular one has done nothing noteworthy outside the group and is thus a good candidate for deletion. Note that all the sourcing is from either fan sites (http://www.karaholic.com/forums/) or from allkpop, a fan/company portal, IMO. This person, Montanabw, is no Mick Fleetwood! Drmies (talk) 17:00, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: I previously suggested a list be created of all members, it is possible that all need to be gone, but in that case, a List is appropriate, as the article would be bloated with merged content. Frankly, I wish that AfD would be a bit more creative in that respect, much work could be salvaged if it were made into list articles. Montanabw ^(talk) 04:08, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about a person that lacks the significant coverage in independent reliable sources to establish notability. She has some local awards and some coverage in community press but that is insufficient for inclusion as an article. Whpq (talk) 18:44, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Notability not sufficient. Xxanthippe (talk) 02:32, 29 May 2016 (UTC).[reply]
Comment from user Recently I added 2 references to this person's article. The references cite her international work. Additionally, she is more noted as a speaking coach than she is a speaker. Her involvement as a visiting lecturer at Harvard's Kennedy School of Govt., her work as a lecturer and as a past president of the Women's Campaign School at Yale are important and note-worthy. While I've not added it to the article, Ms. Sofield is referenced in SC Governor Nikki Hayley's book as having coached the governor in her election campaign. She was presented the < ref>http://leadershipsc.com/leadership-south-carolina-to-honor-three.php</ref> Alumnus of the Year Award from Leadership South Carolina along with Hayne Hipp and Sen. Lindsey Graham who were presented with awards on the same evening.

I appreciate the editing and the scrutiny--it's all part of the process. Obviously, I am a novice here. I have been using this article/entry to learn. I do, however,contend that Deb Sofield is worthy of an entry in Wikipedia and should not be deleted. YearginD (talk) 15:01, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ntzieanhortara ridge pass[edit]

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

None of the three synonymous names listed in the article are verifiable via Google Books searches. This looks like a hoax? It was deprodded on procedural grounds, but I still don't see what could possibly save this. Joy [shallot] (talk) 18:12, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete - I should not have deprodded this. Sorry. ~Kvng (talk) 03:45, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - This does not look like a hoax to me, but the article's problems are probably too great to justify keeping it. The article seems to be a direct translation of its Greek equivalent, and while "Ntzieanhortara" seems to be exactly how it should be transliterated from Greek, the name itself is fairly obviously a very awkward transcription into Greek of a non-Greek name. To add to the difficulties, both of the non-Greek sources mentioned are identifiably from the early 19th century, and I suspect that all the Greek sources are originally at least 100 years old, even where more modern reprints have been used - and most of Epirus remained under Ottoman rule until 1913. Because of this, there is a small chance that this pass is today in Albania rather than Greece - but if it is in Greece, its name has almost certainly been changed to something less obviously non-Greek. If, however, someone can chase down the sources given in the article (apart from the lack of inline citations, it is actually reasonably sourced) within the AfD period, it might be possible to identify the place's modern name and merge some of the material into a suitable article. PWilkinson (talk) 18:55, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I doubt any sort of orogeny events happened in Pindus since the 1980s, which is the listed date on the newest referenced print source, that would have affected the locations or naming of mountain passes there, so I find it rather dubious that someone would write an article about one without using a name recognized by gazetteers that are searchable on the Internet.

Bruce Prentice[edit]

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

Advertorially-toned WP:BLP of the chair and president of an organization. This is not a claim of notability that automatically entitles a person to an article just because he exists; it counts as notability if he can be sourced over WP:GNG for it, but does not confer a "because he exists" freebie if the sourcing is as bad as it is here: of the seven references, five are primary sources that cannot support notability at all (and even two of those are just unnecessary reduplications of one of the other three), one is a Q&A-style interview with him (a type of sourcing that can support additional facts after GNG has been met by stronger sources, but cannot be GNG in and of itself as it represents the subject talking about himself), and the last simply namechecks his existence a single time in an article that isn't substantively about him. In addition, this was created by a user who has the acronym of the organization directly in his own username, so there's a conflict of interest. We are not a free public relations platform on which anybody is entitled to an article -- nothing here exempts him from having to meet GNG on the sourcing. Delete.

AMBER health[edit]

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

While this response system likely is helpful for a lot of people, I don't see particular evidence of it being notable. The problematic, advertising-like nature of the current article's tone is also worrying. All that we seem to have that passes the sourcing bar is one single article from Forbes.com, which is interesting, but that's not enough to build an adequate page on. More searching generates links to places with publicity type material and downloading details that doesn't meet citation guidelines. I also need to note that, confusingly, a number of institutions in multiple countries, such as the United States, also go by names including the term "Amber Health".

Keep Per AUTHOR, a creative professional's biography may be kept if "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." Leema has created (authored) her well known book and the same has been the subject of multiple reviews like CNN's iReport featuring Leema Dhar's interview with Book Review Forum, Global Times half pager on Leema, Telegraph's small but significant piece on Leema, Merinews review of Leema's book, this significantly long piece on Leema done by Amar Ujala which is amongst the top five Hindi regional language newspapers in India, this piece on Leema in Jagran, the highest read daily in India. And none of these is authored by Leema. This biography needs to be developed properly with these references rather than be deleted. Xender Lourdes (talk) 17:44, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: per WP:GNG. The vast majority of sources in the article are reliable and most provide reasonably comprehensive coverage of the subject. I'm not sure I would say that the coverage of the subject is extensive, but I feel there is definitely enough here to meet notability guidelines. I am of the opinion that the notability guidelines are about ensuring enough content for a useful article can be found in reliable sources. We have enough content sources from reliable sources here for an article that describes the subject, thus my argument for meeting WP:GNG. Chrisw80 (talk) 22:55, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I don't really understand the nominators rationale ("The articles and links are poor and not standard.

Rain Elwood[edit]

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

Poorly sourced and highly advertorial article about an actress and model with no strong claim to passing WP:NACTOR or WP:NMODEL. The strongest claim here, that she was the face of a luxury perfume brand, is supported by sources which verify the existence of said perfume brand but completely fail to contain any mention whatsoever of her being its face -- and her acting career consists entirely of commercials, music videos and minor character roles in film or television, which is not an NACTOR pass. And the sourcing here is heavily dependent on primary sources and press releases -- the only reliable sources in the bunch are the modelling articles that fail to name her. As always, Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform on which anybody is entitled to have an article just because they exist -- nothing here is a compelling pass of any notability criterion, and the sourcing isn't satisfying WP:GNG. In addition, this was created by an editor who's been blocked for WP:COI sockpuppetry around Ankit Love, who's named in this article as a direct colleague of Elwood's -- which means the creator has a COI with regard to her as well.

Delete as a bad disambiguation page:

Entries of Notepad++, Notepad+ and Notepad2 are forbidden per WP:PTM.
Notepad software is forbidden by WP:DABREDIR, because "notepad software" does not appear in text editor article. (I have nominated it for deletion.)

What is left consists of two entries (notepad and Microsoft Notepad) which, per WP:2DAB are not enough for a disambiguation page. Codename Lisa (talk) 06:58, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Whether Text editor currently mentions the name "notepad" or not, it should, as it's a relatively common term for this type of program.[6][7].

Keep per Widefox. --Gimubrc (talk) 18:14, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Notepad+, Notepad++, and Notepad2 are all commonly shortened to "Notepad" (there is significant risk of confusion or reference to them by that name), and that shortening isn't limited to a certain area or group, so they aren't in conflict with the partial title matches guideline. Text editor can also probably be listed in some way as Cuchullain states.—Godsy^(TALK_CONT) 19:01, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per above. I can see why the nominator felt that this might not fall within the letter of the guidelines (although I think on close examination it does), but it certainly falls within the spirit of it - we have similar terms which may confuse readers and there is no benefit to readers of deletion. Boleyn (talk) 19:24, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agree 100%. Last time I checked, we don't have good guidance in MOSDAB for useful dictionary based entries in dabs. For example synonyms not listed in the article, but may be in wiktionary. I add wikt to all dabs now, and it may be as simple as adding all useful entries from wikt in the dab. I suppose the twodabs template covers this somewhat. Widefox; talk 10:34, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I for one don't see why anyone would refer to Notepad++ as just Notepad - if the extra characters were just run-of-the-mill punctuation, maybe that would be ambiguous, but it's two pluses, there's no way one could just omit them as irrelevant for the search term. Every keyboard has a one or two key combinations to get a plus, and it's reasonable to expect people would type it in. People who are searching for just "notepad" are looking either for the paper variant or for the trivial MS program. Stuffing all the other similarly named programs into this part of the navigation process is indeed a WP:PTM violation. It's also a slippery slope to linking every Michael from Mike (disambiguation), and whatnot, and should be avoided. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 10:44, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'd say it's almost as likely that people are looking for general "notepad" text editors without regard to whether it's the Microsoft version or not. Though I note that notepad software is up for deletion, for some reason.--Cúchullain ^t/c 03:28, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't recall ever seeing anyone refer to "a notepad app" in the real world. Most people who don't care for it (but use Windows) only know about MS Notepad, and those who care seem to call them with the generic term "editor" or "text editor". There's a lot of this terminology in the field, what with Notepad, Editpad, Evernote, even iPad, and probably a lot of other variants, but I don't see that Notepad has become generic, not on the level of text editors or note-taking apps. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 09:35, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge To the university of Auckland. 1) This stub has been severely pruned a year ago, with no explanation, and made a good bit more sense then, which I always find suspicious. 2) The website for theology programs at U of Auckland doesn't seem to use this term for discussing the program itself [8]. It does not immediately appear to be a separate college or school within the university, but rather a program within the Humanities department. 3) A Google News search for the term turns up multiple hits, but none that I would call substantial, independent RS coverage.

Construction History Society[edit]

Lack of notability, no independent secondary reliable sources. If the academic journal is notable, then that may justify its own page - it does not make the CHS notable by relation.

Keep Seems to pass the academic notability barrier which is pretty easy to pass. I think there was some specific rule about SCOPUS which means just the magazine alone passes. I also noticed that a mention of this Society is at History of construction#The late twentieth century and has been there for quite the number of years. I changed the hyperlink there to a link to this article. I also added a note about the Construction History Society of America to this article since they seem easy to confuse. --Mr. Magoo (talk) 16:04, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Magoo, can you point to me specifically how this subject passes the academic notability guidelines? If only the journal passes notability, then this should be moved to Construction History (journal). Iamozy (talk) 17:12, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The society passes the GNG on its own and additionally their journal passes the notability test for academic journals of being abstracted and indexed in selective databases. The most useful way of presenting this information for our readers is in one article. I see no point having just the journal without an article for the organisation that publishes it.

Keep The society isn't generally notable because most of those references are either from the organization itself or from Cambridge, which had been sponsoring the annual meetings. That said, I think there's a net positive to keeping an article about such a society. We really ought to have an SNG to presume notability for academic journals and their societies although I know the community isn't keen on SNGs. Chris Troutman (talk) 20:56, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Chris, would it be a bad idea to propose a move of this article to Construction History (journal), which currently redirects to this page? It seems like this article would me most appropriate there. --Iamozy (talk) 20:10, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it would be a bad idea because, in my view, and that of the majority of the commentators thus far, this society is independently notable. If, when the AFD is closed, the closing is other than a 'keep' then the move can be readdressed. Just Chilling (talk) 21:24, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Iamozy: I'd prefer to see the society have an article that mentions the journal than the other way 'round. It looks like there's a consensus to keep so it won't matter. I agree with Just Chilling that the move should not be addressed until the AfD ends. Chris Troutman (talk) 23:52, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This may be one of those borderline cases. She apparently was a somewhat popular tokusatsu heroine in the 1980s, with a number of TV credits [14] and film credits [15] [16]. (Note she changed the kanji for her name at one point). She was then out of the business for about 20 years before returning in 2006. She apparently now is a regular presenter on TV shopping shows, but has appeared on some major variety shows [17]. There are a few pieces on her in the popular press that can be accessed now (or could be accessed at one point): [18], [19], [20]. She of course appears on fan sites like [21]. My feeling is that if we went back to the popular press in the 1980s, before the internet, we would find some more articles on her, possibly enough to pass WP:GNG.

Delete No improvement in sight. The mentioned Japanese article is larger but doesn't have any sources either: [22]. If it were up to me I'd keep the article since she has credits in multiple articled productions, but alas that is not the Wikipedia way. However the Japanese Wikipedia article for her exists so if one wants to find information about her they can, with the help of some translation software. --Mr. Magoo (talk) 15:34, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep On second thought, after getting to know some of the roles, she does seem to have some amount of notability as the few roles were in quite popular shows. There doesn't seem to be mainstream English coverage but there does seem to be a niche English fanbase as well with unusable coverage, which is one of the notability criterias. This article has also been missing the {Expand Japanese} hatnote, as the Japanese article is much bigger even though apparently without citations as well. I think if it were slightly improved (more than I could, I mean) it'd look passable. --Mr. Magoo (talk) 00:53, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What is the point of this, bearing in mind that the lead says "The appearance of a particular tribe as Rajput in the list does not in itself confirm that the tribe is Rajput or otherwise. Identity may change with time, and some groups in the list may no longer identify themselves as Rajputs." Also bear in mind that the 1911 census was not reliable, being subject to the huge misunderstandings resultant from the influence of H. H. Risley and other scientific racists. It's basically just a transcription of a primary source.

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

This article has failed to satisfy WP:BK and the more general WP:GNG by showing any significant coverage in reliable, third-party sources. Almost all the sources on the article are primary, with one dead link from a retailer, and a news report about the manga's conclusion by ANN. A cursory Google search yields mainly fansites, scanlation sites, and blogs, none of which can be used to prove notability. 十八 22:54, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per failure of WP:GNG and WP:MUSBIO. To my knowledge, this artist has not been the subject of "multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself." The only source cited is iTunes, and I couldn't find anything better anywhere else, save for one article in the Financial Times from 2008, which is more about Iranian rappers in general (many are mentioned) rather than Mr. Pishro himself.

Can not bring myself to vote either way - just saying.Peter Rehse (talk) 14:28, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete He is mentioned in a number of blogs. The problem is that my search didn't turn up what I believe is significant independent coverage from multiple reliable sources. I didn't see anything that shows his books allow him to meet WP:MANOTE or WP:NAUTHOR. The burden of proof is on those who claim notability and I don't believe that's been shown.

Ace (yacht)[edit]

Unreferenced article about a yacht that "has many unique features". I suspect an intent to promote, and can't see that notability is met. I originally declined an A7 as inappropriate, and prodded. Prod has been removed with no reason given and no change made. Peridon (talk) 12:00, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - OK, the article is unreference and promotional. Both of which are fixable. Sources should be available to do this, such as Superyachts, Charterworld, Moran Yachts etc. Was WP:BEFORE followed here, particularly section C1 & C3? Mjroots (talk) 16:53, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Moran link looks like a real bit of PR advert work, and the other two are sort of directory entries that merely establish existence. Feel free to fix it, but I couldn't find anything better than those, and don't consider they show notability. Peridon (talk) 17:50, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It is easy to find sources for this such as Super Yacht Times and, at worst, we should merge into the list of superyachts, of which this is a middling size. That's our editing policy. Andrew D. (talk) 09:54, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That link is to a pure list description of the Ace, which bears a remarkable similarity to a section of the article here. I don't know which came first, but either that is a copy of the article, or the article contains a copyvio. Peridon (talk) 17:20, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Heart Rate of a Mouse[edit]

This is a non-notable, non-reliably sourced fan fiction book series that fails both WP:GNG and WP:NBOOK.

The first reference is the livejournal when the books were written and the other three references are goodreads.com that contain a basic plot description and readers' reviews, therefore none of these references are reliable and the article should still be deleted.

Delete. Sometimes, very VERY rarely, a fanfiction will become notable enough to warrant an article or even a mention on Wikipedia. It takes an awful lot and most fanfiction never gain that coverage because there's just so many of them.

Delete: Quite aside from the above, the source Rlendog cites is a blog post, not an acknowledged reliable source, and a good example bolstering WP:CRYSTAL, in that it touts the subject (who's struggled to remain in the minors as a third- or fourth-liner) as a future NHL superstar. Yet another creation by Dolovis in defiance of all-but-unanimous consensus that appearances in the world juniors or amateur tournaments don't meet the criteria of NHOCKEY.

Delete: Not notable. I'd have CSD'd it while stub-sorting except that I wasn't sure whether "FIDE Master" was a get-out-of-jail card like "once played one county level cricket game", for notability (I asked at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Chess#Notability). PamD 07:41, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The consensus within WikiProject Chess (as opposed to the wider wikipedia community) is that players with the top title of Grandmaster are considered notable, players with the 2nd tier title of International Master may be notable and players with the next tier title of FIDE Master or no FIDE title probably aren't notable unless they're well known in some other capacity (e.g. authors, magazine editors, administrators etc). This is less strict than the definition in WP:GNG, but MJRW doesn't even meet the looser definition of notability that has evolved at WP Chess. MaxBrowne (talk) 13:31, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The ECHL is not a league that automatically gets its players over WP:NHOCKEY just because they're in it. And of the six sources here, five are press releases from hockey teams themselves, thus primary sources that cannot assist notability at all, and the only one that actually constitutes media coverage is the local newspaper in the town where he currently plays — which means WP:GNG has not been met, because substantive media coverage in multiple reliable sources has not been shown. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 06:30, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
His coverage is not fully reflected in the article. The Reading Eagle article here is not the only article they've done about him, although most of the ones available on Google are pretty minor coverage. But he has also gotten coverage elsewhere: [25], [26], [27]. And even some articles about his bobblehead [28]. I still think this is a close call, since much of the coverage directly of Tifu is relatively short. But he has had a pretty long career, even though most was in the low minors, and there could well be coverage not easily available on Google. Rlendog (talk) 15:17, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

None of those sources assist: bctv.org and capitalsoutsider are blogs, WFMZ is still a local media outlet covering the town where he currently plays, and the Brossard Eclair is a community weekly newspaper in his own hometown. So none of them help achieve a GNG pass; the only two that count as reliable sources constitute local coverage in exactly the places where a hockey player at this level would be expected to garner coverage, and thus fall under WP:ROUTINE. Bearcat (talk) 16:19, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that WFMZ is a local media outlet near the town he plays in and that Brossard Eclair is in his hometown (or that the Reading Eagle is in the town he plays in) is irrelevant if they are providing significant coverage of Tifu. Local coverage is not automatically WP:ROUTINE. If bctv is a blog that may be relevant (although some blogs are reliable sources) but I am not sure it is a blog. Rlendog (talk) 19:46, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, it very much is relevant where the media coverage is coming from. Local media outlets would be expected to offer coverage of their local junior hockey team, or of the early accomplishments of emerging but not-there-yet local talents — but if a person doesn't actually satisfy a specific Wikipedia inclusion criterion, then to get over WP:GNG on "because the media coverage exists" grounds the coverage does have to expand significantly beyond the bounds of the purely local. Exclusively local coverage can't be enough in and of itself to get someone into an encyclopedia, because then we'd have to start keeping articles about fry stand operators and PTA presidents and disabled kids who got introduced to their favourite football player by the Make a Wish Foundation and small-town fire chiefs — many of whom are the subject of at least as much, if not even more, purely local coverage as has been shown here. Bearcat (talk) 23:15, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That is an interesting interpretation of WP:GNG. But not what's actually in the guideline. While local media would be expected to cover the local teams, they do not necessarily provide specific coverage of everyone who plays for the team. Rlendog (talk) 23:35, 30 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Actually that is a standard interpretation of it. It is the reason why not every local politician gets an article for example. That is why we usually ask for articles from outlets not just in a local players town otherwise we consider it WP:ROUTINE. Otherwise highschool athletes start meeting WP:GNG in cities where there are multiple news outlets that do fluff pieces on local athletes. From the top of that page "Coverage should be in multiple reliable sources with national or global scope." -DJSasso (talk) 11:49, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And thinking about it, I remembered that Wikipedia:Notability (sports)#High school and pre-high_school athletes even says for highschool aged athletes that local papers are not good enough. -DJSasso (talk) 15:23, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep. I started out with Keep, and after a few minutes, realized that this subject deserves a speedy keep! There are plenty of sources. [29], [30], [31], [32], [33] and dozens more. There's plenty of non-directory type of coverage, from news and other sources like abc, orlando sentinel for the snakebite coverage. Boy's Life (The boy scouts of America pub) did an article. Men's Journal. Reptile world. This has tons of significant third-party coverage! Jacona (talk) 12:32, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

But YMMV; I don't really know what criteria are generally accepted for place article.--Elmidae (talk · contribs) 13:02, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There are certainly plenty of puff pieces on attractions, but these are news stories covering incidents at the serpentarium, incidents involving reptiles, incidents about people involved with the serpentarium (particularly George Van Horn), who are frequently quoted whenever "snake events" are being discussed. If they aren't enough, here's some more: [34]? [35]? They don't have to be noted herpetologists to be notable. They've gotten more significant coverage than probably 70% of articles.

Keep - The addition of this episode of Only In America with Larry the Cable Guy (on the History Channel), in which he goes to the Serpentarium, brings it from a very weak keep based on the above sources to a keep per WP:GNG. That this attraction has been around for 40 years means there likely exists sources (especially from when it was new) that aren't easily accessible via the Internet. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 14:23, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the episode is notable because its story has inspired a segment in a comic book adaptation and it was written by a famous author. Sro23 (talk) 07:14, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That's your own indicator of notability rather than Wikipedia's indicator of notability. The article needs reliable sources on real world impact and reception. From what I can see, there's pretty much nothing for this episode. Unlike random character articles, TV episodes have a much better chance of establishing notability, so please do feel free to find sources. I'll gladly withdraw the AfD if some are found. The most this needs in its current state would be a disambiguation page pointing to an episode list, comic book list, and Slippage (book). TTN (talk) 18:49, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Sro23. I don't understand why this is even up for deletion. 202.49.183.1 (talk) 17:00, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Those reasons are insufficient per the notability guidelines. That the story is one of literal thousands written by an author with a long history really isn't anything special without reliable sources commenting on it in some fashion. I doubt even .5% of his stories merit articles on this site. That it was adapted to a comic book is not notable at all unless there are reliable sources talking about that adaptation somehow being special. TTN (talk) 19:17, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The sources in the article do little more than establish that the pageant exists, without discussing it in any great depth. My first thought here was that the nomination might best be addressed as a redirect. But I couldn't find an appropriate target for it. Neither the pageant's president (Tracy Kimble) nor its beneficiary (the WIN Foundation) appears to have an article. More puzzling is the fact that, although the instant pageant was formed by splitting an earlier pageant (i.e., the instant pageant requires contestants to be a certain minimum age), the "parent" pageant (Mrs. Globe) doesn't have an article, either.

This is an article written by a single-purpose account about a firm that does not meet the corporate notability criteria. There are simply no high-quality references discussing the firm at all.

Middle school with no real claim to notability. Eight years ago, this article barely survived deletion because of receiving blue ribbon status. Blue ribbon status is now so common, having been conferred on a hundred thousand or so schools, that it really isn't much of a notability claim at all. This should be redirected or merged to Charlotte County Public Schools in accordance with longstanding tradition evidenced by WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES and the thousands of middle schools in Category:Redirects from school articles.

And your reason for deletion is? Certainly notable, and somewhere we have a better article on this, to which this should be redirected. Johnbod (talk) 03:42, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Johnbod The reason for deletion is clear. There is no substance in this article worth keeping, no references for years, and nothing notable for years. It isn't even indicated from the text that "vintage prints" are notable in any way and doesn't show really what they are or how they are classified, or anything. HarryKernow (talk to me) 03:56, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As a plus, from the edit rate (some years don't even have edits) this is clearly not a worthy article and generates very little traffic. HarryKernow (talk to me) 03:59, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, perhaps make a footnote in some photography article. While it looking bad and being unreferenced are not appropriate deletion criteria, WP:NOTDIC is, and I may be stretching with it a tad here, but the way the subject is described in the article is basically a definition, and a seemingly subjective one at that. Tpdwkouaa (talk) 05:12, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, this is not the dictionary definition and while the article is poorly written and definitely need expansion and rework (hence, it was marked as stub for quite a time), it's a legit term and should not be deleted. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 11:02, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Somewhere, there is a rather detailed article on what constitutes an original print (or whatever the term is) by big-name classic photographers like Adams. Can't find it though.
