for all the problems you seem to be finding, how about messaging me first before deciding to delete my work. if you're going to delete this article, then i suggest you delete every other article which is similar to mine. list of arrow films, list of.....films. you see my point. there is a category. Lists of films by home video label. this is my contribution to that category. it is a complete list which i update every time 88 films make an announcement. it is simply a reference article for collectors who wish to collect their films. my references on the article got removed not by me. whereas the list of arrow films have references that link their titles to their website for purchase. i do not have these links on my article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kn5150 (talkcontribs) 16:01, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Given sources are mainly press releases or directory type entries in various industry related publications. No sources given from outside the industry. This company does not appear to satisfy the requirements of WP:NCORP or WP:GNG. Article was previously deleted a number of times under CSD A7 and/or G11. Current title is WP:SALTed, but article was recreated under a variant capitalization and then moved here. Given that the current incarnation of the article makes a credible assertion of significance and is not blatant spam, I think AfD is the appropriate process, rather than another attempt at speedy deletion.

not notable firm; all of the notices and minor awards are just routine for any business of this sort. A concentration of really minor awards and promotional articles is characteristic of an attempt to write a promotional article about a minor company. Some of the articles like this are done by paid editors; some by good-faith editors copying what the paid editors do, because they think it's what we want here. It's time to put an end to it, and remove the bad examples. Only then will we be able to teach the true volunteers how to do it in a proper encyclopedia manner. We can permit promotionalism and decline into a web directory, or we can remove it--all of it--and become a reasonably reliable encyclopedia DGG ( talk ) 06:19, 15 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is a disambiguation page for two articles, only one of which actually looks similar to the name. As far as I could determine, there are no other instances of similar usage.

Thanks for the clarification on the chart, changed to Redirect, as per the guideline under WP:NSONG that says "a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album."

Most notorious ways of making This Wikipedia Compromised on a highest scale of blatant promotions: Motivations are none other than Paid advertising. Such articles are violating every means possible by misusing GNC and References. Wikipedia is compromised. And can you even cite anything why on earth this article makes an Encyclopedia material. No one bother to know about this company. Not even their own industry I doubt. Only few media references are blatantly misused to create this High promotional material.

Refs are directory listings, trivial mentions, and/ or primary sources.

Good find of the IAWA database entry. It lists many awards and notable projects for her. Fences&Windows 07:35, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Let me highlight quickly: being mentioned in a book by name once as part of a list of influential women in a discipline is the definition of a trivial mention. The encyclopedia mentioning her does no more than that: it mentions her name, and says nothing more. This is why it is not useful for a Wikipedia article. Likewise for entries in databases: they say nothing about her, and therefore are not useful for creating an article about her. None of the references to the NYT articles have links, making them less than helpful for assessing notability (though her name does not appear in the title of any). The reference in the Atlantic is a citation to where she is quoted-- the article is not about her, it is about the city of San Francisco, and she happens to be someone worth quoting there (the article in the Atlantic actually says nothing at all about Simons). The first SF Gate article is the same: it says not a thing about her, but only quotes her as saying something about the SF zoo. Look, these references are all great, but they still don't amount to a hill of beans until one of them focuses on Simons and her work specifically rather than quoting her or mentioning her in passing. If she is genuinely notable, this should not be so darned difficult. On the other hand.... KDS4444 (talk) 12:58, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Actually several references are specifically about her, she has won multiple awards for her work, and she has received significant coverage in multiple sources independent of her. She easily passes GNG. Your opening nomination shows a cursory search asserting only "directory" type listings - you were wrong, but you won't admit it and have dug your heels in.

Another BLP without independent reliable sourcing or nontrivial biographical content. Just a list of not-very-important awards. PROD removed on the claim that the subject passes PORNBIO by winning a well-known/significant award, but there is no evidence that "Best Director - Non-Feature" even approaches meeting that standard.

It used to say "such as" but when a certain user started making a similar argument to this and was using any award given out at all such as scholastic player of the year a discussion removed the "such as" to make it only those two. That being said not saying leading PIMS can't get your enough sources to be notable, but he will just have to do it through GNG. -DJSasso (talk) 14:57, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article doesn't describe anything significant - it just summarized PaaS, SaaS, and IaaS, and says you can have APIs to them. It doesn't need an article. The existing "Cloud Computing" article is much better, and perhaps an extra sentence or two in that article could replace this entire article (essentially just saying, "APIs usually exist for *-as-a-service platforms".)

The result was keep. Who does, and who does not, accept that Shahba region is a valid name is not relevant to an AFD discussion. Or at least, those are arguments not based on policy and administrators are obliged to give more weight to policy based arguments. All that matters is that it exists and that reliable sources discuss it. I note that no one has disputed that the de facto administration of this region are using this name.

The Shahba region is a self-governed region with it's own Regional Assembly, a council, senate and administration and military counsils defending the self-control of the autonomous region. This nomination is as absurd as a Georgian nominating 'Abkhazia', an Azerbijan nominating Nagorno-Karabakh_Republic an Armenian nominating Nakhchivan_Autonomous_Republic, a Ukrainian removing Donetsk People's Republic, ... Trying to remove already established de facto selfgoverning autonomous regions because you politicaly oppose it's existance is completely against wikipedia phylosophy and grave NPOV pushing.--Niele~enwiki (talk) 12:19, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Secondly, the Syrian rebels are attacking (and will take soon) Tell-rifaat. Turkey is pushing toward Manbij as well. Meaning, very soon, this so called "region", even though its existence is doubtful just like the ISIL provinces, will seize to exist.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 12:21, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(1) Daesh provinces are not self-governed autonomous entities like those of the Rojavan 'Federation'. Nor does Daehs has governing control over al-Hasakah. Comparing that does not make any sense and says nothing.
Not self governed ! so ? is that a criteria !. For two years ISIL controlled most of Hasakah.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 15:30, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(2) Shabha Region might be the newest of the 4 autnomous regions of Rojava, but it exists for more then half a year from now. An autonomous self governed region that exists for more then half a year is encyclopedia-worthy and important knowledge.
(3) You're personal guesses/wishes about what will happen in the future have not any relevance to this discussion or wikipedia.--Niele~enwiki (talk) 14:53, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Your political stances (ultra left hippie lets all unite...bla bla bla) have not any relevance to this discussion or wikipedia. What will happen with that region is obvious even to people who live in a bubble. You are creating a fake entity. This is a civil war and land holdings change by the day and you cant give the claims of every militia legitimacy! Just like ISIL provinces have no importance, so are the ones created by the YPG mercenaries.
Last thing User:Niele~enwiki, stop your pushing attitude and do not talk personally to me, focus on the topic like I did before you presumed my "wishes" using your amazing very smart/know all brain. Why did you even replied to my comment !! I didnt come to argue with you, but to say my opinion. Please stick to your own opinion and dont shove yourself in other peoples comments. Please do not reply to me.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 15:01, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(1) Please refrain of trying to insult other wikipedia users ultra left hippie, smart/know all brain,...
(2) This is an internet-encyclopedia, not a forum. Again you're wishes/guessings are not relevant here. This not a place for pushing political views but for documenting reality for informational and encyclopeditional objectives.
(3) Please stay factual: Shahba region is not created by the YPG as you claim, but as sourced by several conferences held with local representations from all parts of Shabha region, it is governed by the Syrian National Democratic Alliance (TWDS) not by Democratic Union Party (PYD) led Movement for a Democratic Society (TEV-DEM). Military it is under control of the multi-etnic Syrian Democratic forces and in Shahba region is the Army of Revolutionaries not YPG the largest force within Syrian Democratic forces.
(4) Shabha Region has been quite a remarkably stable entity since it included the major town Manbij and it exist for more than half a year now and successfully fully fended of all treads against it's integrity, especially the previous days.
(5) You are only proving all the evidence that this deletion-nomination is fully politically motivated,part of NPOV pushing agenda and coming from a politically objection against its existence, not from a encyclopedian-based neutral point of view. Thank you for that. --Niele~enwiki (talk) 16:24, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Now User:Niele~enwiki, can you please revert all your argument with me and leave me alone and restrict your self to your own opinion about the supporting or the opposing of the deletion of this article instead of making my comment a forum ?--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 16:27, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
My main recommendation for the article would be to "de-militarize" it, in particular the infobox, but also the text in general. Shahba region like the three other Rojava cantons is a civilian-political administration concept, not a military concept. There is a lot ongoing in terms of civil administration and society in the areas around Manbij and Tell Rifaat, and I would find it very appreciable if an editor who can read the sources in Arabic and/or Kurdish would elaborate. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 19:24, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
One more point, when I last went through the article some weeks ago, I helped make clear distinctions in every section between on the one hand the claimed region as a the whole and on the other hand the part of it which is actually under administration within the Rojava framework. It seems that later edits have blurred that line, and I think that for the sake of clarity, it should be reinstated. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 19:34, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Still, can anyone show me serious international media using this name for this "region" (Aleppo Governorate)? Amr ibn Kulthoumعمرو بن كلثوم (talk) 00:27, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Some respectable media like ARA news frequently use it (and for example also the official Iranian FARS agency occasionally does). And this discussion is not about replacing any other lemma with "Shahba region", but about having an additional article for a distinct, additional reality political phenomenon. By the way, geographically "Shahba region" does not denote Aleppo Governorate in its entirety, but only its strip between the Kurd Mountains and the Euphrates, to the north of the city of Aleppo, see the official map of the Rojava administration. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 00:52, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know if you consider ARAnews, Hawar news, Dars Agency, and some other Kurdish sites and blogs respectable media sources, but I don't and Wikipedia doesn't. The least we can say about them is that none of them is neutral. Amr ibn Kulthoumعمرو بن كلثوم (talk) 01:41, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia does consider ARA news a respectable and professional independent media source, just like all of civilized humanity does, because it is. With ANHA (hawarnews) I would be careful, not because it is "Kurdish" (I do not share anti-Kurdish racism), but because it is the official news agency of the Rojava administration. Talking about official news agencies, for those of us with particular interest in "UN recognized sovereignty", here is the official news agency of UN member state Iran using the term "Shahba region" for the area. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 01:46, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
But because the SDF considered 'Shahba Region' geopolitically a less controversial name than 'Shahba Canton' for now it was more frequently used in official documents and communication.
As a result the 'Shahba Region' name for the autonomous administrative region was more frequently used by sources it was renamed.
This obviously does not change or migrates the subject of the article to 'Northern part of Aleppo Governate'-region.
That would be very confusing and make this page a battleground page of different parties and would become very messy.
Shahba region/canton' is now renamed to 'Shahba region (autonomous region)' so any confusion to the subject of this article is prevented.
'Northern part of Aleppo Governate'-region" or 'Shahba region (geographical area)' if this is an existing concept(not used before foundation autonomous entity), should be a different page because it is a completely different subject. 2 different subjects on one page will create a lot of confusion and make this page a battleground of people with different interpretations. Neither-mind the subject of an article should not be changed to something else that it is not. --Niele~enwiki (talk) 08:17, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Still, all this information is OR. There is no notability or even mention of such region (only in Kurdish propaganda). Amr ibn Kulthoumعمرو بن كلثوم (talk) 14:31, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Where is your reference for the name "Shahba region" or canton? Shahba is an Arabic nickname for Aleppo city (see infobox in there), although some people here are trying to imply it's Kurdish. Also remember, the local population in this area are overwhelmingly Arab (see CIA maps). The only thing that is Kurdish in this area is YPG militia trying to make facts on the ground (helped by some users here for the propaganda part). I hope you do some research before commenting here. Amr ibn Kulthoumعمرو بن كلثوم (talk) 23:36, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Even if all Arabs in this area reject this new government, we cannot deny its existence, which proven by Kurdish sources. Even if it is only a Kurdish puppet regime, it warrants its own article by its sheer existence - otherwise regions like the General Government would have to be deleted as well. Applodion (talk) 09:25, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
While I see no legitimate case for deleting this article anyway, I would like to point aout that your claim "the local population in this area are overwhelmingly Arab" is simply not true. As the most used and respected ethnic map of Syria by Gulf2000 project of Columbia university shows, the area is very mixed, and the Manbij area majority Kurdish. However, the administration of Shahba region is polyethnic, dedicated to a political agenda of good government and not an ethnicity, and international media reports clearly point to consensus from the ethnic Arab population as well, Link -- 2A1ZA (talk) 11:14, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That map isnt the most used and respected, the CIA map is. Your "Columbia" map (nice move so typical of your "NPOV" nature, mentioning the university but not the author) is made by Mehrdad Izady, a notorious Kurdish nationalist who claimed that Elam and Kingdom of Pontus are Kurdish kingdoms in one of his worthless books (dont start your usual accusations of racism, that guy is the worst type of nationalists). Ofcourse, he didnt have any data to base his funny map. So, you are, as usual, wrong and biased cause the CIA maps shows a Kurdish minority in those areas. (I replied to you cause you are replying to anyone opposing this article, try to give people a chance to breath without your input if you dont like the fact that I replied to you and indicated how unreliable your "map" is).--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 13:12, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
With all due respect, my impression is that you do not understand the facts on the ground here. The Rojava canton civil administrations including the Shahba region civil administration (having no equivalent in rule of law, effectiveness and sophistication in the "rebel controlled" territories) are neither created nor run by people for being "Kurdish", nor as an enterprise of "militias". -- 2A1ZA (talk) 19:49, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, a sophisticated militia. ISIL is much more effective running its "provinces" BTW. Al-Ameer understand perfectly and neutrally (unlike passionate editors who have a fetish for rojava). If what you say is true, then the "Shahba" article wouldn't have focused only on the ethnic history of Kurds in the region. This is just a militia enterprise created by a militia called YPG and its puppets to give a civil face to their military aggression, and its obvious to everyone, specially the international media which dont use that term at all (yea yea, fars agency, we know). Last time I checked, the people of tell-rifaat didnt beg the YPG to invade them.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 13:44, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I find it inappropriate and I regret that the "historic background" section of the article is exclusively focused on ethnic Kurdish history, and I would wish that some editor would add to it to make it more complete. However, your attempt to draw conclusions from an inappropriate bias in a section of this article to reality on the ground is a fallacy. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 14:04, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly, I dont think any editor will do such a thing cause only one group of nationalists (from a Kurdish or pro-Kurdish affiliation) are trying to shove those notions of a historic land bla bla bla.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 14:15, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
It goes several ways, Arab supremacists and Kurdish nationalists and Assyrian nationalists and Turkmen nationalists and so on all have their historic narratives, and seek to push them to the exclusion of all others. Actually this is the most obvious symptom of the tragedy of the Middle East, in my humble opinion (and the Rojava approach is the most convincing attempt to overcome that which I have seen in decades of studying the region). You may feel invited to consider your own attitudes from this perspective. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 14:44, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
My attitude is perfectly fine and much more real "NPOV" than yours, its a reaction to Kurdish supremacist and it is needed to keep their dreams on a leash, specially that they know no limits, they would even claim a neighborhood of a city like Aleppo to be their "Rojava". However, you will not see me writing about how Jazira "canton" has been Levantine and Mesopotamian Semitic for the last 5000 years until refugees and some nomadic tribes came and now, some of their chauvinist descendants, are trying to separate the region from the mother country and call it "Rojava" literally means the West, and what west ? its Western Kurdistan (land of the Kurds !!!!)
Maybe you will understand when Kurdish nationalists in Germany have enough numbers to demand a Bavarian Kurdistan or if the Turkish nationalists established a YPG and started invading the German provinces after 150 years from now.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 15:03, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You cannot "keep their dreams on a leash" forever. I recommend to you this interview where a PKK leadership guy (sic) says that "we prefer the use of North Syria Federation and call for the removal of Rojava from the name because Rojava denotes a federation of Kurdish identity. North Syria is home to all of its constituents". The add-on "Rojava" is a matter of political need for the people acting on the ground to have broad support among the local Kurdish population for the progressive polyethnic project. If I could decide it, the English Wikipedia would completely replace "Rojava" with "NSR" for the sake of clarity. And I use the term "Rojava" on Wikipedia with that meaning. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 15:31, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I said the dreams of Kurdish nationalists, not Kurds. For those nationalist dreamers, the end wont be nice if the civil war was over and they had to deal with a unified Syrian army. Anyway, you just used the words of a PKK leader !! an internationally recognized terrorist organization. Amazing. If they want the support of only Kurdish people, then they should stop invading non-Kurdish lands.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 15:36, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Its a subdivision of a de facto autonomous area. If the article on the larger region was deleted, I'd be more inclineded to agree, but so long as we have that on Wikipedia, it makes sense to have the subregions. They are very much a real concept in that they are not a hoax. I'd be open to considering whether every breakaway/autonomous area of Syria should have its own article in an RfC, but right now, considering the heated exchange this AfD has caused above, the best option is to keep it, maintaining the status quo, because it does seem to be an actual region that some significant portion of people refer to by this name. TonyBallioni (talk) 04:10, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but I have to disgree again. There is no reliable source showing the name besides the propaganda of a military side in the Syrian civil war. Does it make sense to make an article for every area under the control of ISIL? I guess not. Inventing new names does not make new facts on the ground. Wikipedia has to be a little more careful with what is allowed to stay as this can be interpreted as taking sides or publishing propaganda/false information. Thanks.

"Delete Lacks notoriety, and also violates WP:promotion. The fact that "Blurry Photos" performed a live show on the "topic of Aerial Mysteries" is offered without qualification and therefore bears no significance, no citation tells why this should be considered worthy of an encyclopedia. And the "finalist" status does not confer any special significance without elucidation. Thousands of people and organizations every year win awards and are "finalists," but few are worthy of an encyclopedia. I have nothing against podcasts, this is not personal for me.

fails WP:BIO. No inherent notability in being ambassador. Article relies on one primary source which merely confirms person held position.

absolutely no inherent notability in being an ambassador. Interesting this is your first edit in 2 months. LibStar (talk) 06:55, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Why is it "interesting" that I edit sporadically from a dynamic IP? I'm mostly tired of Wikipedia at this point, having started editing back around 2005 or thereabouts, but I still stick my nose in from time to time. Also, if you want your argument to be taken seriously, you need to present something more substantive than a "Nuh-uh!" Have you made even a cursory effort to look for Pakistani sources in Urdu, Punjabi, etc. to determine whether or not the subject actually meets WP:GNG? Or are you just assuming that because there wasn't much in the first couple pages of English results for a quick Google that no sources exist? -208.81.148.195 (talk) 16:05, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

While this is true now that the nomination has been made, I felt it should be noted that your nomination did not follow proper deletion procedure, assuming that you did not take the steps that I listed. See WP:GD, which states, "First do the necessary homework and look for sources yourself, and invite discussion on the talk page by using the notability template, if you are disputing the notability of an article's subject. The fact that you haven't heard of something, or don't personally consider it worthy, are not criteria for deletion. You must look for, and demonstrate that you couldn't find, any independent sources of sufficient depth." Your decision not to take those steps, among others listed on the page, undercuts the presumption of good faith in your nomination. -208.81.148.195 (talk) 17:14, 24 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If the company were notable, I believe that it's better to restart from a clean slate, and let the draft go through AfC. This would ensure it's not a COI driven article, while eliminating marketing messages from the article history. I also subscribe to the spirit of WP:BOGOF: i.e. let's not encourage spammers by fixing up promotional articles for them.

  • VMoney CEO: Apple Pay is a cause for celebration, not fear, for Philippine payment startups". Tech in Asia.
  • Money CEO feels PLDT buy-in to Rocket Internet skyrockets his company's valuation
  • How Ralph Santos And Vmoney Are Disrupting The Financial Tech Sphere
This is in no way significant coverage & instead is only promotion. An encyclopedia article cannot be built from such sources. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:10, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
....and that's not surprising every single source listed would in fact be notorious for republishing company advertising and company interview quotes and that's exactly what they are, there was no actual journalism happening there and it shouldn't be mistaken for being that, especially when there was such damn blatancy of "what the company wants to advertise", and we should also not mistake for being "substantial, independent or significant" because advertising is advertising, regardless what publication chose to republish said advertising, because we are not that PR website, and we actually take articles and contents seriously. SwisterTwister talk 06:05, 5 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • TechinAsia, e27.co and DealStreetAsia are companies in Singapore which are more of a platform to connect startups and investors, rather than a traditional media. Unlike traditional media, they often redress press releases and attribute it to the company (or say, "xxx, CEO of this says...."). This doesn't help to satisfy WP:CORPIND as it is essentially any material written or published by the organization, directly or indirectly.
  • How Ralph Santos And Vmoney Are Disrupting The Financial Tech Sphere in BalikBayanMag (published by AsianJournal) - This is a community magazine which claims to be for the Filipino expat population in the US. It has a small circulation of 15000 (even that is self claimed), so I am not sure how reliable such a small publication would be. More importantly, the content is largely an interview of the founder.
  • VMoney redefines the world’s payment landscape. The Philippine Star - At first glance this seems reliable, until you actually read the stuff. Furthermore, in line with our goal to promote the entrepreneurial spirit among Filipinos, this new feature will instantly allow individuals and small entities to become loading facilities for these stored value cards without much capital outlay. The entire text is a press release which has not been properly redressed (the line I quoted, probably slipped through). This is cannot be used for notability per WP:CORPIND as it is material indirectly written by the company.
  • What entrepreneurs can learn from Jollibee’s ‘Chickenjoy’ supply problem- Published in Rappler which is essentially a social media/citizen journalism website - one of the many which has recently mushroomed in Southeast Asia. These allow anyone to signup as a reporter and start reporting - similar to Huffpost Blogs. If you look closely, the same person who put this rapper article also sent a similar article about VMoney to TechInAsia. We don't use these for notability.
Also, in general the coverage is largely about what the CEO says about the company. These are the kind of promotional sources we need to avoid. It is very tempting to simply look at sources and assume they are reliable. It takes a lot more time to actually scrutinise the sources individually. However, Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia and we hold stuff to academic standards here. I believe closely looking at the sources is beneficial for the encyclopaedia. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 06:18, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted once before so I would suggest Salting considering this is still an advertisement as it once was, my own searches are simply finding published-republished PR, everything simply focuses with what the company would say about itself, and not what an encyclopedia actually needs. Being list at the Forbes list included was simply a mere listing and contributes nothing but PR since it basically means "this company is not yet notable, but keep watching it and help it get there". I'll note this was literally restarted 2 years after the first deletion by an advertising-only account and there have been no other substantial contributing visitors to this at all.

Just because published articles are informational does not mean the topic or subtopic is notable because Wikipedia is not a manual, guidebook or diary. Big numbers, or arbitrary quantities, such as in this article which says, "5,000 'iTechs' by the end of the calendar year, and [intend] to add 10,000 additional 'iTechs" in 2016'" in 10 countries - do not indicate notability per WP:BIG. And notice it is the CEO being interviewed - this is WP:PROMO. This is not covering a significant impact, such as correlating to an impact on the economy or causing a shift in culture.
I agree with User:DGG - only the truly famous companies that cause cultural shifts on a national or global scale actually receive independent significant coverage. The rest use press releases, re-packaged PR, routine announcements in the press, all of which have no value for determining notability. This is the same as covering what a plumber named Joe does. Is this notable? ---Steve Quinn (talk) 05:00, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

User:PamD, Irrespective of AfD, there's no wiki policy which allows you to vandalize any article, which you did with this edit. If you think your version – which is full of original research – is better than the then we can discuss that on the article's talkpage. And that's outside the scope of the ongoing AfD. Just because the nominator didn't follow WP:BEFORE, it doesn't give rights to anyone to vandalize the above article. So, I reverted the original research added by you. Please discuss your favored version on the article's talkpage, instead of reinstating the original research again.
PS: Dagar will remain a dab page, as – other than the current entries – there are five Indian villages named as 'Dagar' – Dagar, Uttarakhand, Dagar, Rajasthan, Dagar, Jharkhand, Dagar, Madhya Pradesh, and Dagar Chowk, Assam – which are all notable as per WP:NPLACE. - NitinMlk (talk) 16:07, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
On the contrary, if any edit was vandalism it was yours when you over-wrote an existing article, in the middle of an AfD discussion, to create a disambiguation page. I reverted your edit but created a disambiguation page containing the dab page entries you had contributed. Any "original research" was not mine but was the long-standing page under discussion at AfD. Your edit is not helpful and I have reverted it. Please let the AfD discussion discuss the page which the nominator nominated. 16:17, 1 November 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by PamD (talkcontribs) 16:17, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
None of the versions are written in stone. And it's so unfortunate that a senior user like you is adding the original research. Please just take some moments to think about your latest edit to this article. And you will realize your mistake. BTW, replacing one version with the other doesn't constitute the blanking of the article. It's just a content dispute, which we can resolve on the article's talkpage. In fact, we can add your version if you could provide its merits over the version reverted by you. - NitinMlk (talk) 16:29, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
NitinMlk, PamD isn't adding original research, but simply restoring the version of the page that is actually under discussion here. PamD, clan/caste clans get turned into surname articles often enough. In my opinion, this practice is good because it preserves the page history which might give possible hooks to future editors willing to expand it with content about the surname's origin etc. – Uanfala (talk) 16:38, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
But there's no policy which backs the unconstructive edits done by PamD at the above article. In fact, had the nom followed WP:BEFORE, this whole wastage of time could've been avoided. - NitinMlk (talk) 16:46, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@PamD: AfDs are for the deletion discussion of an article, instead of its any particular revision. As the Dagar is up for deletion, we should present its best version here & let the !voters discuss the result. Only way you could convert the above dab page into a clan article is by clearly developing consensus on the article's talk page that the Dagar clan is not only notable but also the primary topic here. But, in reality, let alone being primary topic, the caste even fails the WP:V. So, in the absence of any primary topic, Dagar should remain as the title of the dab page, as per WP:DABNAME. If you still want to create the caste article, you can create it under a title like Dagar clan. But you have to stop vandalizing the above dab page.
PS: I am reverting the vandalism done by you to the above dab page for the last time. After that, its up to others to deal with it. - NitinMlk (talk) 16:40, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
In light of the fact that Dagar (disambiguation) exists, and having read through WP:EDITATAFD again, I think that the discussion should be about the page as it exists. If it gets deleted, then the DAB can be moved here. If it stays, it can be improved. Primefac (talk) 16:59, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: First, read the your cited policy – WP:EDITATAFD – again. It only states that the blanking, redirecting & merging content to other articles is not allowed. I did none of that.
Second, read WP:DISCUSSAFD. It clearly states that disambiguation is not a reason for deletion. Also, read my !vote for other clarification. BTW, you should self-revert, as there's no policy which allows this revert. - NitinMlk (talk) 17:29, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly, NitinMlk, you've made your point multiple times. I think it's time to DROPTHESTICK. Primefac (talk) 17:33, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So, you should self-revert. - NitinMlk (talk) 17:36, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: I gave you two days to think about your deliberate vandalism, but to no avail. In fact, both of you don't actually agree to the original research, with which you are deliberately replacing the above page's content. And thereby behavior of you two is perfectly explained by WP:NOTPOINTy, which states: "As a rule, editors engaging in "POINTy" behavior are making edits with which they do not actually agree, for the deliberate purpose of drawing attention and provoking opposition in the hopes of making other editors see their "point"." Now that combo of you two have done that enough times & other editors have seen your "point", please stop vandalising the mainspace article. Remember that one is 'free to edit' the article while this discussion or that discussion is going on. Also see WP:5P5.
PS: I am using an unsecured connection to make this comment, as my connection isn't working. So, I will disconnect after reverting your vandalism to the mainspace article. Hopefully any of you won't vandalise it again. Thanks. - NitinMlk (talk) 19:39, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I am genuinely curious - why is it so bloody important that the article that was nominated cannot be discussed? As it is, you're probably going to get what you want anyway, so why not have some patience? The existence of the article in its old/current form is not going to cause the internet to implode, nor is it going to dangerously jeopardize anything. I ask again, please DROPTHESTICK and let the AFD run its course. Primefac (talk) 19:50, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Also, for the record, the actions taken by myself and PamD are not "vandalism" - they are perfectly acceptable edits made per WP:BRD (or in this case, BRRR). Primefac (talk) 19:53, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: First, unfortunately, many naive people think that Wikipedia is reliable, thereby believing the information present here. Along with that, Wikipedia's fundamental policy demands that only the reliably-sourced info can be added to the mainspace. And that's why I am trying to remove the unsourced info from there.
Second, the day users will 'drop the stick' against vandalism, Wikipedia will become redundant in no time.
Finally, in your latest revert, you clearly stated that "Undid revision ... by NitinMlk ... for the last time." Now I will revert you for the last time. After that, I won't revert either of you till the end of this AfD. Thanks. - NitinMlk (talk) 17:43, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: BRRR is indeed effective! Now the mainspace page will keep on spreading misinformation till the closure of this AfD. Thanks. - NitinMlk (talk) 17:48, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I thought of merging initially, but this seems to be a one-off musical which received very little coverage if any.

The result was no consensus. WP:TNT, really the only deletion rationale here, is contrary to typical practice and so especially needs a clear consensus to apply, which is not present here. The list can be expanded from the entries in Category:Fictional models. List of fictional beauty queens probably should have been nominated separately, and its inclusion here appears to have been overlooked by most participants.

Completely unsourced list of nominees and winners in a single category for a non-major teen awards show, voted for by fans. There are a lack of reliable sources to confirm the annual winners, even less the rest of the nominees. I can't find any source at all, reliable or unreliable, that states that this category has an official name in English, so even the title of this article appears to be WP:OR. And just to over-egg the non-notable pudding, the template at the bottom of the article relists the winners of the award, so in fact we have both a list and a template for exactly the same thing.

I am also nominating the following related pages for precisely the same reasons:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. It seems to me like a case of a person who is just living a pretty much everyday life in the media industry, not meeting notability guidelines: the sources are mentioning him in passing or are written by him (ex. he conducted some interviews, but was not interviewed himself), he has not won any awards, he appeared on TV a few times as a journalist/host (i.e. in his professional role), he played a minor role in a single movie, published a single book, written lyrics for one song - no matter which guideline I look it at - WP:AUTHOR, WP:MUSICBIO, etc. - he seems to fail it. The best he has going for him is that he appears on google, but this is true for most journalists, and being a journalist or a television presenter, does not make one notable, even if it means they pass WP:GOOGLETEST. Oh, and it seems he was created as part of the drive to write bios for people associated with Eurovision, but although he "was the Swedish spokesperson at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2004 and 2006, announcing the results of the national televoting" this is not the stuff that should put one in an encyclopedia, as much as it may pain fans of Eurovision - Eurovision-related people are not auto-notable, neither.

Non-notable mid-level list article. One library has its own article (Founders Library has some reasonable claims to independent notability) and Howard University is a notable school. But their library system? Does not seem to be anything to say except the simple list and maybe a generic sentence or two about its overall size and services (these are not notable aspects). At most should be a redirect to the school's article. And also could merit being a subcategory of the school and a possibly navbox if multiple individual libraries merit individual articles.

Delete because:

Narutolovehinata5 and Geogene put this article up for speedy deletion a week or so apart,[19][20] but those didn't work, hence this AFD. I haven't been able to find any reliable secondary sources in my own search. There are currently 3 sources cited, all of which are primary and none of which constitute "in-depth" coverage: 2 of them[21][22] reference the same FBI document on different websites and the 3rd one (CNBC)[23] is a breaking news article quoting an anonymous source taken directly from the same FBI document. According to WP:RSBREAKING: "All breaking news stories, without exception, are primary sources..." WP:RSBREAKING also advises that material from anonymous sources isn't reliable. Later that same day and the next day, several reputable sources published articles with fully attributed statements refuting the claim about a "shadow government".[24][25] Most reputable newpapers didn't acknowledge that anonymous quote at all.

I don't even think this is something that should be merged into another article since it can't be supported by a single reliable secondary source and it's refuted by other, more reliable sources.

Note: This article was created by user:Shadowxgov who has since been blocked indefinitely because they "abusively used multiple accounts" (see Sockpuppet investigation). The other primary editor of this article, Knowledgebattle, was found to be the master account (but for some reason the SPI is still under filed under Shadowxgov).

Non-notable aircraft accident previously a redirect because of lack of notability but recently restored.

  • Comment - Still dont see anything encyclopedic about the accident, Just because it is someones fault doesnt make it notable, thousands of aircraft accidents can be blamed on somebody that doesnt make them notable and wikipedia is not a newspaper or tabloid that covers everything possible. MilborneOne (talk) 17:15, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • We try not to decide what's notable based on arguments form principle, rather, we follow the sources. If RS such as major national media cover an airplane crash in ways that meet WP:GNG: it's WP:NOTABLE; if a tree falls in the forest and nobody hears it, it is not Not WP:NOTABLE. In other words, when the sources are there, we keep the article.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:07, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Reliable sourced newspapers create articles all the time it doesnt make them encyclopedic, in this case they are just responding to the accident report of N237WB which says that this was not particularly notable just pilot error. We dont include every pilot error accident that appears in newspapers because as has been explained they are not unusual or particuarly rare and I still dont see anything that raises it above the bar for a stand-alone article. MilborneOne (talk) 15:47, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NOTNEWSPAPER applies here. News media outlets report on cats stuck in trees, that does't mean we need to have an encyclopedia article on these incidents and it is the same case here. Bizjet accidents are weekly events and unless they result in changes to ATC or aircraft procedures, Airworthiness Directives or other consequences, they are not any more notable than a car accident is. - Ahunt (talk) 16:15, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - This is not Akronpedia so in a worldwide context is not notable or reported. As it would not meet the criteria for a stand-alone article it should (as a fatal accident) be in the airport article but they are far to many accidents similar for it to be mentioned in the aircraft article (although if an Accidents and incidents involving the Hawker 800 were created current practice would list it). MilborneOne (talk) 09:40, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • But this is the English Wikipedia, not "worldwide context" pedia.  Only for WP:CORPORATION do we evaluate whether sources are local or regional.  As per the previous AfD, diff, "...this crash was reported nationally and internationally on many news networks (i.e.: ABC News, CBS News, NBC News, MSNBC, Fox News, CNN, etc.) and social media. It wasn't just a local news matter."  Unscintillating (talk) 22:24, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • There are several factors that make this unlike a small private two-seat airplane crash into a mountainside.  A building on the ground was demolished.  There was a fire that was a factor in the deaths of the occupants.  This was public transport.  Nine are dead, most of them executives.  It was the largest crash in the history of the city and the county.  There are concerns about the safety attitude, training, hiring practices, and record keeping of the charter.  Unscintillating (talk) 22:24, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'd think that a link to other coverage should suffice for the aircraft article.  I'm not aware of any current indication that the aircraft was a primary factor in the crash.  Unscintillating (talk) 22:24, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Bearian (talk · contribs), would you clarify which part of the article is "blatant plagiarism"? I searched several sentences from the articles on Google and did not find them copied from anywhere. Thanks, Cunard (talk) 03:15, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Women in the Americas[edit]

I never nominate articles for deletion based on quality, but I'm going to make an exception in this case. This is probably the worst Wikipedia article I've ever read. It doesn't include a single useful statement about women in the Americas, and instead is just a list of all the countries in North and South America with lead sections copied verbatim from the corresponding "Women in X" articles, all of which seem to start with the inane sentence "Women in X are women who were born in, who live in, or are from X." Thanks for that insight! This article either needs to be broken up into more manageable chunks where useful comparisons and coherent themes can be elicidated (like Women in the Caribbean and Women in Central America), stubbified (so that it can be replaced with some tables and charts and useful prose), or deleted entirely. As it stands, the article is incoherent and unreadable. As there was no actually writing or research involved in making it, I don't think we would lose much by deleting it.

Comment: I would be in favor of merging Women in the Caribbean into this article, like how Central America redirects here. We have a "women by continent" category to serve the purpose of filling it. Savvyjack23 (talk) 16:12, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Now neutral after the rewrite. This topic still has a faintly WP:SYNTHetic feel to it - do women in the USA and e.g. in Bolivia have so much in common that reliable sources treat them as one topic? - but at least the content looks and feels like proper articl now rather than a copy-pasted assemblage of stubs.  Sandstein  07:42, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Also, I think the Women in the Americas article should be written up more like Women in Antarctica (which I started). The Antarctic article was a little easier to work on because the history of the continent doesn't go too far back in time and there aren't countries in Antarctica per-se, but I think we can approach the Americas article in a similar way. I added a couple of external inks to the article that link to the Society for the History of Women in the Americas who are a scholarly group studying the topic. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 18:25, 29 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Rhododendrites I do not mean to be flippant, but the future of the page is irrelevant to a discussion of whether it is a notable topic and the content is based upon RS. The women in all of the Americas share a common history, which I am working to develop in the article (and would welcome help from anyone who is willing to try to save it, rather than delete it). The comparison and contrast of how that conquest effected women is interesting both for its similarities and differences. Because all citizens shared a colonized past, laws existed throughout the region which limited citizenship of women, whether European, indigenous, or from bondage. Laws were similar in countries which had the same colonial power, i.e. Canada, the US and the former British colonies of the Caribbean have similar legal challenges, as do women living in Suriname, Guyana and the Netherlands Antilles, etc. Likewise, all of the countries in the region have indigenous populations, which have all experienced colonization/conquest. Multiple organizations and women's conferences in the 19th and 20th centuries have utilized a regional platform and the strength of developments in other nations within the Americas to address inequalities in their own societies. There are slews of academic studies on the subject, thus, clearly, it is a relevant topic with sufficient data. While extremely broad, I believe with effort the article can give a broad synopsis of the similar and contrasting experiences shared by women in the Americas and break out to individual countries to provide more in-depth discussion of specific areas. SusunW (talk) 23:09, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Rhododendrites I agree with SusunW who has explained the issue far better than I could. It is broad, but geographical areas do have shared historical narratives based on the geography and the people who inhabit the areas. These are unique to each continent. For example, The Americas has a shared history of slavery that is different from other continents. Different continents faced different issues with colonization, too. I've found several scholarly articles on the topic of Women in the Americas as a broad subject. I am also helping to clean up Women in Oceania and other "Women in..." articles. They are notable topics, but the articles are really terrible. I'm glad the nom brought this to our attention. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 23:15, 30 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
the future of the page is irrelevant to a discussion of whether it is a notable topic - I brought up the future of the page not to say "tell us how you'll improve it so we don't have to delete it" exactly (which would generally be irrelevant to AfD), but rather as a way to talk about what an ideal vision of the page would look like (in order to convince those who see -- or saw, prior to the improvements -- a page without a clearly unified subject, and a page that's more than a grouping or directory of component parts that we already cover). From my perspective, while it seemed like it could be a notable subject, it was unclear what that would look like. Hence suggesting turning into a disambiguation as a potential outcome. Your responses here, and continuing to look at the added content, help to clarify the subject, though, and I've updated my weak keep/disambiguatize/draftify to just keep.

Thanks Richard3120. I think it's a good example of what we all can do when we find articles on Wiki that need work. When you let members of interested WikiProjects know about it, they're likely to get cracking on it. ;) SusunW is really good at digging up the history on these kinds of topics. :D Megalibrarygirl (talk) 22:18, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. Clear consensus not to have an article. No consensus about where to possibly redirect or merge it to, though, and only one opinion in favor of retaining the history, so it's deletion for now. Any appropriate redirect can be created editorially.  Sandstein  10:59, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There are MUCH BETTER places to merge this article to than List of Autobots, which is simply a massive list of names. This was a character in a cartoon series, and there is a page with a list of the characters from that series, at the very least. Please stop directing Transformers to the basic LIST pages when there are other pages which are more appropriate. Mathewignash (talk) 17:54, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
