Kept in 2006, when we had very low standards--the arguments was basically "it exists, and so do other articles"

No third party sources in article, but a Google news search shows the usual local mentions, and a umber of articles about a murder of an employee during a 2016 robbery, which is not significant for an encyclopedia . DGG ( talk ) 22:48, 7 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Keep It's not a lot of coverage but in addition to the crime stories and 15 y.o. shot to death at one, I'm finding some notoriety about their Roman Burger and EC3's dad being an owner of Mr. Hero franchises. They seem to be fairly well known and influential as a regional chain. What is a buttered cheesesteak? Does Cleveland Rock? Stories such as [this https://www.clevescene.com/scene-and-heard/archives/2016/05/23/mr-hero-is-the-scourge-of-clevelands-professional-athletes] one lead me to conclude that it is culturally relevant to Northeast Ohioans and should be kept.

Some of the text here is pretty good and should be preserved, but the article's function is largely redundant to the #MeToo article as well as others, such as the poorly-named "2017 Westminster sexual scandals" article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.112.229.80 (talk) 23:22, 7 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

And #MeToo's, too. But not in a destructive way. Just all the essentially same stories under one common umbrella term of the year, then trimmed of redundancies. Potentially libelous lists as these should be watched closely, and it's twice as hard to watch two things closely. If we fit those cheeky Brits in, it could be thrice as simple and straightforward, while naming every single name and deed we've named so far.

And the most logical place to for an inclusive workplace is one where we can discuss all sorts of contemporary silence breaking, without any examples standing out as weird or unwanted for not using the hashtag, drawing inspiration from Weinstein or getting involved in British governance. Sometimes people just don't say anything till it's brought up, whatever "it" is. As long as it's about sex, revelation and fame from here on, I think it's a job for The Silence Breakers.

This is why there's a statement up front in the lead paragraph and on the talk page about excluding contemporary-setting works, set a year or two ahead, unless it pertains specifically to some event like the 2012 phenomena or makes some statement about future society.

I think some of the Doctor Who episodes fall in the contemporary, but again, those can be scrubbed, or cited if they are to stay as with the Terminator Genisys entry. The point is that writers have been making up lists to compare future and past, especially on works like 1984, 2001, and Back to the Future.

  • I think you misunderstand my point. None of the references are for "stories set in a future now past", so this is a made-up criterion, hence OR. Clarityfiend (talk) 04:50, 12 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Agreed. The references would have to specifically be about how the story is set in a future that is past for the article to be notable.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 09:30, 13 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I'm still not sure what makes this original research? Writers place a date or year in their fictional work and then says something about the society. The year comes to pass. A writer from a secondary source independent of the subject writes a news article discussing the work and how it compares the society with how the actual society turned out. If a prediction was listed as correct, it is cited by the news article writer making the claim, not the Wikipedia editor checking accuracies. The news article writers also present lists of films, video games, or books when the year has passed. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 02:34, 12 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • As I pointed out, the track record of predictions is fine, but that's not what this list purports to be. Reread the criteria. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:37, 14 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The only visible claim matching any notability criterion is the "Labels" field in the infobox. If at least two of _her_ (not a musical group she belonged to) albums are with a major label, please consider this withdrawn. However, the likely reliable sources which would confirm this claim are in Greek. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 20:53, 7 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I fail to see your point. What is the problem if the sources are in Greek? Does this mean these sources or those citing them cannot be relied on because most readers have no knowledge of the language? — Chris Liak (talk) 21:33, 7 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Keep. The late Arleta was, and still is, a very popular Greek songwriter, and singer in Greece, loved by the Greek public. Thousands of sources, mainstream Greek media, newspapers, periodicals, internet news portals etc., attest to this. Even CNN.gr has uploaded an extensive obituary for her, and also has a photo coverage of her funeral service, naming Arleta in the title as σπουδαία τραγουδοποιό (=great/important songwriter). ——Chalk19 (talk) 06:36, 8 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I see no point in having a separate article for the list of chart achievements. Notably, it may make sense to have the List of Billboard Hot 100 chart achievements and milestones and the List of Billboard Hot Country Songs chart achievements, but it doesn't for any other chart, because there are too few entries for this chart. Not only so, the content on this page was originally on the main Mainstream Top 40 page, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. And now, it is on this page. Without the records and achievements on the main page, it looks more like an article stub. The point is, this page is just an unnecessary extension of the original records and achievements section on the main page, and having the records and achievements section on the main page is more sufficient.

Non-notable band, local to the Texas area and local music festivals. No discussion or analysis of the band in major music publications. News articles do not go into the significant coverage of the band itself but are rather performance announcements in related festivals and local gigs. No singles or albums that have charted.

I don't think there's any automatic notability from being a greek letter organization (does that even mean much) or from having some chapters (i don't think each chapter has that many people..). Those sources I listed are all that I can find (and Naraht has found so far independently) - I don't think there are any more. Need at least some national media to reach WP:NORG's criteria.

Extensive Rewrite[edit]

PKT, Ammarpad, Galobtter OK. I did some updating. I've included all four references that have been mentioned and trimmed the officer (local and national). Please take another look and if I'm still the only one who supports keeping it, I'll call for it to be closed with delete.

There needs to be a signature in the edit for pings to go through (I didn't get the ping); so PKT and Ammarpad. I have seen the sources and don't think it's enough for WP:CORPDEPTH. Including the sources shouldn't really matter, as the sources that WP:NEXIST is what matters, but it can sometimes help. Galobtter (pingó mió) 04:12, 9 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Galobtter Apologies.Naraht (talk) 05:56, 9 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Nahrah's edit is a good effort, but actually on reading the content of the sources, they cannot be described as significant coverage in any sense. And thats why they end up in infobox, the bulk of the article body is referenced to their website (primary source) because no coverage from independent reliable source It still doesn't meet WP:ORGIND. –Ammarpad (talk) 13:28, 13 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Sorry, but I'm in agreement with Ammarpad. It's a good effort to add outside resources, but I don't think the sorority meets WP:ORGIND either. Perhaps a reasonable solution would be to move the article to the author's draft space so that it can be worked on. PKT(alk) 13:43, 13 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Well..notability cannot be fixed. Also I believe a lot of it is copyvio/close paraphrasing of the website, and so unsuitable to be worked on. Galobtter (pingó mió) 13:50, 13 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Galobtter says it all. There are somethings which are just not fixable. Only deletion can fix them. –Ammarpad (talk) 14:09, 13 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • presuming the sorority lasts long enough it will get fixed. And oddly if it does get deleted, we'll have the references that have been found so far here in the deletion discussion (which isn't that common)
  • I'm curious as to what you think is copyvio. Things like the Pillars would have a very difficult time being rephrased, though the Symbols might be better in a list.Naraht (talk) 14:39, 13 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Fails WP:NSONG; only mention I can find is a review of the album in The UrbanWire 23 Dec 2009 entitled Chuck Waste Management into the Bin : "Bad vocals and uninspired beats make up most of Waste Management, the long awaited third English album from Russian faux-lesbian duo t.A.T.u . ... Subsequent tracks “Sparks”, “Snowfalls” and “Little People” headed down a slippery slope to the trance/techno genre that will remind you of being in a club ." that isn't notability.

The result was moved to Draft:Makkah Model School System - MMS Feroze Wattwan. This is a difficult close, because there are respected editors on both sides of the question. However, as it stands, the editors who point out that the article is both lacking in verification and unverifiable from basic searches are correct. Urdu sources may or may not exist, but at present we have insufficient context to even carry out a search for such sources. Although there is not a consensus to delete this article, I am therefore boldly moving it to draft space, until such time as at least some verification from a reliable source - in any language - can be provided. bd2412 T 20:12, 14 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • The community was never divided on whether we delete articles about subjects that cannot be verified, although it seems that some editors are now so committed to keeping articles on secondary schools that they are willing to see them kept even when no evidence can be provided that they exist. This is a clear violation of Wikipedia:Verifiability. Cordless Larry (talk) 18:07, 9 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • I would prefer to see some evidence that the subject actually exists, which is a pretty basic requirement for having an encyclopedia article about it! Cordless Larry (talk) 19:01, 9 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • It isn't bias to insist that there is verifiable evidence about a page subject. None of us speak or read the local language, so it is entirely possible that sources do exist in local sources. But given that nobody has offered or found any, the only choices are either (a) imagining that the subject can't be a hoax and that therefore sources exist or (b) that we've no idea and must therefore delete until such point as someone offers sources (in any language) that can be verified. I say (b) is the only way forward. I'm perfectly happy to change my mind when someone can show acceptable sources in any language. JMWt (talk) 12:44, 10 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

OK, but how can we know what it says in non-English sources, given that nobody has offered any? What if, for example, there are no relevant foreign language sources?

most of those references are not from reliable sources. Just because he has represented a celebrity does not necessarily make him notable.

Look through the Google News coverage and you will see that there are stories about Prinz, not just about the cases he was involved in. See for example two RS [13] and [14]. If a lawyer is interviewed about his personal life, this kind of tells you people are interested in him as a person.

Punjabi Music Awards[edit]

Punjabi Music Awards (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

Article about a regional music award, referenced entirely to its own primary source content about itself rather than any evidence of reliable source coverage in media. And the article is so poorly maintained that it's spent the entire month of November containing an extended and poorly-written biographical sketch of one individual musician, not to mention the fact that the ceremony which occurred eight months ago is still described as an upcoming event. Music awards are not automatically deemed notable just because their own self-published website verifies that they exist -- they need to be the subject of coverage in media that are independent of their own public relations efforts, but this isn't showing any evidence of that.

Masreliez's theorem[edit]

Masreliez's theorem (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

The same rationale as caused deletion before still applies (this article was created by a sock of the original article and should never have been recreated out-of-process, but there we are), this article is substantively equivalent to the version that existed at the time of the last nomination (not deletion). The issue is that the theorem though referenced obliquely is basically just a statement about Kalman filtering and, you'll note, the article itself does not even state the theorem instead, the goal is to promote the author. I don't see any salvageable content and I don't think mere mention in journal articles is what constitutes a WP:GNG jump. Primefac (talk) 01:37, 7 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

If you check the last AfD, I think you'll find that a lot of the citations are a bit suspect. I think it is questionable as to whether this is a novel claim about Kalman filtering or whether it is just a restatement of something rather obvious about it. My inclination is to say that it is the later as the provenance and prevalence of the use of this idea in spite of Kalman filtering being a huge industry is rather weak as you point out. Could we compare it to other signal processing theorems that get more play? I can't find another example that is as obscure as this in Wikipedia. Why not just redirect to the article on filtering? jps (talk) 15:12, 12 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This article is very well written, but it's simply not encyclopedic. It has far too many opinions stated as fact and its own original conclusions based on other research, which amounts to original research. I would be in favor of creating a list of Black women filmmakers. JDDJS (talk) 00:18, 7 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

  • Thank you. That is exactly my point. Currently, the article is not encyclopedic and has far too much original research and is not at all neutral. The question should be if the article can be rewritten in a way that could avoid these issues. Personally, I do not think so. JDDJS (talk) 01:42, 9 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • Whether the subject, which is clearly notable, is better suited to a list or an article is a discussion that belongs on the article's talk page. AfD is not cleanup. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 03:08, 9 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • What I'm proposing isn't clean up. It's completely deleting the current article and then creating a new article titled List of Black women filmmakers. JDDJS (talk) 03:49, 9 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  • What you're proposing is clean-up. We already have a list of black female filmmakers. You'd like to delete it and create a new one from scratch. Your rationale was that the subject isn't encyclopedic. That's clearly not true. Now what's your rationale for deletion? — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 04:48, 9 December 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]
