Non-notable actor lacking in-depth, non-trivial, WP:SECONDARY support. Some blogs, IMDB, and a lot of brief PR type support. reddogsix (talk) 23:42, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have tried to edit the page with sources that align with Wikipedia's standards. Additionally, I did not use IMDB as a reference. Unfortunately, I was not able to find more articles from sources like Hollywood Reporter or Deadline that would help in the referencing process. If the Wiki staff deem this page as "non-trivial" like reddogsix states above, then, I will understand their decision as long as an explanation is provided.

Weak Delete WP:ENT clearly isn't met (being "best known for" a single episode appearance on a sitcom borders on a claim of non-notability), but WP:GNG could be. However, the coverage in linked sources such as Variety magazine is largely trivial, and the blog interviews are borderline at best for being independent enough for WP:GNG. I note WP:TOOSOON; if the actor continues to get more prominent roles it may be a suitable topic in a year or two's time. power~enwiki (π, ν) 02:33, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently not notable by our new and more stringent our standards for businesses (and probably not by the old ones either). It carries on the routine business of a gallery, buying and selling works of art, and receives some routine coverage as a result. Some of those works are by famous artists, and thus attract media attention; but the purveyor does not inherit notability from the notability of the products purveyed – a car dealer is not notable because he sells cars of notable makes.

Hello, I do not believe the article to be promotional at all. All sources are external with years of existence. I have made sure to edit the wording in a way that has no promotional value. I have tagged myself according to Wikipedia's policy.

Brandfolder and dropbox (service) are competitors and there article is much more promotional. They even list features of the product. Entermedia Inc only mentions how it works not why you should buy it. Please let me know, where is the promotional material inserted before deleting? Please, I have spent hours upon hours on this to create it clean and un-promotional. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jcambron (talk • contribs) 15:38, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I understand and just used the other companies as an example. If we focus on just the content on Entermedia, Inc. you will see that there is criticism as well as one positive reception of the product, which is the only part of the article that seems promotional, if-that. Of course this can be deleted to comply with Wikipedia's terms and conditions. The references are external and have existed for years, nothing is new. Please help me understand and edit the article to make it encyclopedic.

Comment An article about the same topic EnterMedia DB (service) was speedily deleted on 2018-04-05 under criterion G11( Unambiguous advertising or promotion). The relevant policy for promotion (not allowed) is Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_soapbox_or_means_of_promotion. If we decide that the article is not promotional, or that the promotional tone can be fixed, the notability guidelines for businesses is applicable. The article would then need to meet the criteria in Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). Vexations (talk) 19:02, 14 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I agree this initially looks shaky, and current sourcing is insufficient to show coverage; but as noted above, that coverage exists ([2]), and what with publication in GeoRL, it's also out of the woods re factual verification. With a bit of cleaning up and adding three or four of the secondary coverage items, this should be fine. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 18:34, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Don't link to generalized vague "Search result". Find the " actual sources" so as to dissect their content and see how they support what's in the article. Linking to search result is vague and will yield result for anything, search engine finds matching strings not actual content. There may be broad concept which has not yet existed on Wikipedia, but this is pure Ph.D project by admission of the article and cited sites. Don't let googling or using Duck-Duckgo fool us. –Ammarpad (talk) 07:10, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

C'mon. You do have a certain amount of obligation here as well to actually look at linked material. Here's the first few instances in ready-to-click form, then: [3],[4],[5],[6],[7]. That's substantial secondary coverage based on the paper. - And I really don't understand this harping on about it being a PhD thesis. If a major scientific finding resulting in a widely-noted publication comes out of a PhD thesis, why is that a reason for denigration? --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 08:00, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comments: I might be inclined to !vote "keep" except there is zero notability for SMACC to be used as a title. Instead of an acronym why not Southwest Madagascar Coastal Current (SMACC) so people will know what it means? I will make this simple to all except Wikilawyers: How many ocean currents are titled under acronyms? ---Zero. How many Ocean gyres are titled using acronyms? ---Zero. I am sure there is something in the policies and guidelines about following other like articles for naming. The name of course is new but covered in secondary sources. It is sort of like professor of Chemistry Kikunae Ikeda who discovered Umami. I can retire now. I have just been waiting to use a Japanese loan word in a sentence that means something Cajuns have known about long before 1908. By now everyone should be saying "That chicken is so umami" (savory). Wait! I am really confused now. Just when I learn we have five basic tastes I see evidence there are six, but umami is missing from that list so with "astringent" and "pungent" that would be seven. Maybe that choice is the wrong analogy for comparison That is off-topic but the proposed spelling would be better than the source that uses the spelling Southwest MAdagascar Coastal Current to clarify the acronym. A problem is that a search of this acronym returns the international not-for-profit multi-disciplinary Social Media and Critical Care conference (SMACC) probably because they didn't want to use three C'c.(SMACCC).

Keep - I agree that there are parts of this essay where revision is needed, but I would have thought the place to discuss this was on the talk page of the article. This article does include references and "Further reading", suggesting the article does have citations. Vorbee (talk) 19:44, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Vorbee, the article does not have citations (it has a list of sources which it does not use). There are just two citations and I bet that the source actually does not reflect the article's content, like I verified in large sections of "Rusalka". I am personally a deletionist and so I think that disastrous articles like this (and many others pertaining to Slavic mythology and folklore) should be trashed waiting for someone willing to re-write them completely in an accurate way.--Eckhardt Etheling (talk) 18:29, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - If there are articles about supernatural beings in other religions and mythologies (such as the Lakota), there should also be an article for the various supernatural beings in the religion, folklore, and mythology of the Slavs. Perhaps the article should be reorganised to make it more like a proper Wikipedia article, or that the beings in Slavic folklore should be listed in a separate article from the beings in Slavic religion that are not deities. PulauKakatua19 (talk) 15:27, 20 April 2018

Keep - notability is easy to evidence, both from the bottom of the article, but even a rapid google books sweep brings up plenty for it to be fine as a standalone. WP:NOTESSAY wouldn't seem to apply - I assume point 3, personal essay/particular feelings was the most likely grounds for that? In any case, none of the mooted grounds seem to apply - or at least nowhere near a level of confidence I would need to warrant deletion under it. Nosebagbear (talk) 14:41, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I merged this article into Deities of Slavic religion back in Summer 2017, but recently some users from Russia insist for it to be kept as an independent article, together with a number of articles about dialectal variations of the name of single entities (cf. Nav (Slavic folklore), Mavka). The article is totally devoid of sources, poorly written, and many of the entities listed are just dialectal name variations and folklorisations of beings already listed in Deities of Slavic religion.--Eckhardt Etheling (talk) 17:46, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I debated nominating this for speedy deletion per WP:G4 in light of the previous deletion discussion, but as there are small differences between the two versions I am putting this up for discussion out of an overabundance of caution. There is nothing to indicate notability. The sources are all directly related to the topic. Even the source that was declared "independent" in the last discussion is an interview with the author, and is therefore not independent.

Keep - the question here is one of interpretation of WP:BLP1E. It is not at all a simple matter one way or another. Belonging to a rich family or being the head of a major company does not mean a person is inherently notable (see WP:NOTINHERITED), and currently, a GF WP:BEFORE search yields only articles about his disappearance, which would make it look as if it is a case of BLP1E. However, I do not agree that it is a low-profile individual or disappearance (one of the BLP1E criteria) given that I find news articles about him not only in German and English, but also Swedish, Greek, French, and Polish (and that's just the first few pages of Ghits). The German-language Wikipedia article has one or maybe two sources that might serve to show notability at en.wiki as well. --bonadea contributions talk 15:32, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have absolutely no kind of relation to the subject.

I ask that this page be re-reviewed and not deleted. I spent my free hours this past week in an attempt to highlight nobility and meet reference requirements, and uncovered some unique layers which I attempted to show without a promotional slant. I started this page because this doctor's biography showed some effort to better the world (e.g. beyond research, money and prestige). I understand the page still needs refinement which I can do with at a slower pace with help from other users and with advice from the Tea House (this is also my first and last page, as I want to turn to editing page.

Delete without prejudice for lack of notability. If the article's creator wants to work on and improve the text, they can work on it and should be allowed to resubmit it at a later date. Meantime, Wikipedia is not a testing board; newcomers are advised to use the WP:AFC process. Putting up an article knowing that it does not meet Wikipedia's standards, or knowing it's there and allowing it to be up does a disservice to the encyclopaedia. See also WP:DRAFTS. -The Gnome (talk) 20:34, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As per my mention of no affiliation to subject (see above) and non-partial to this subject and did not knowingly do anything. If I had known this discussion is what waited my first attempt to contribute to Wikipedia I would never have started it. I would like the chance to improve it but at a slower pace so I can learn more. Thank-you for allowing this page to be worked on and all encouragement helps.MegEng (talk) 14:21, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

MegEng - having a page nominated for deletion is not an indication of any wrongdoing on the part of the page's creator. Most people who have created any significant number of pages have had a few nominated for deletion, or actually deleted. As per The Gnome's comments, you are welcome to continue improving it while it's being discussed at AfD and - should it ultimiately be deleted - are further welcome to work on it in a sandbox before reintroducing it to mainspace. In a sandbox you can work on it as slowly as you like. Wikipedia just has an obligation to the privacy of WP:BLPs that would preclude them from becoming searchable subjects on WP if there's any doubt about their notability. This is to protect Samoon Ahmad more than anything else. Have you had a chance to visit the WP:TEAHOUSE? Chetsford (talk) 16:19, 12 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Chetsford- thank-you for the above comment and information. It is really appreciated. I had to step away from Wikipedia for a few days in order to get over my disappointment and re-group. I am now ready to vist the WP:TEAHOUSE and work on the page within a sandbox, re-read the discussion related notes and advice i was given, and work at a slower pace (as well as edit some pages that i have come across that need some notices, etc.). Thank-you again.MegEng (talk) 05:02, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

MegEng - I'm withdrawing the deletion nomination due to the fact you've added a claim from an offline source that Ahmad is a fellow of the APA. This might be an automatic qualifier for notability under the WP:NACADEMIC criteria. Chetsford (talk) 05:16, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It is not. See below. The claim for being a "distinguished fellow" is sourced to an irrelevant link! Let's not jump the gun. -The Gnome (talk) 07:30, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

~~Withdraw nomination.~~ A claim has been added to the article that the subject is a fellow of the American Psychiatric Association which might be a pass under criteria 3 of WP:NACADEMIC. I'm not familiar enough with the fellowship criteria of the APA to say for sure. Chetsford (talk) 05:16, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Chetsford - THANK-YOU. I hope it will be enough (and I am going to continue to work on the page to address concerns). I will keep watching the discussion and hope... MegEng (talk) 05:27, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hold your horses, Chetsford. The subject is ostensibly a "Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association." The source for that claim is a link to the Amazon website about a book ("Kaplan & Sadock's Pocket Handbook of Clinical Psychiatry") that seems to have zero relevance with the subject. Perhaps, he is a member of the APA, but this by itself means nothing; practically every psychiatrist can join the APA.^[1] So, WP:NACADEMIC is still lacking: "The person is or has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor (e.g., Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers)." Emphasis added. -The Gnome (talk) 07:27, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The link to Amazon is to well respected Medical Textbook that he CO-AUTHORED and (as noted in the the reference link that I inserted on his page - under 'Index' is an in-depth profile that i found that is within the textbook). As well, here is a link indicating he was Chair at APA's 2008 Conference^[2]^{[dead link]} Your argument appears slightly slanted? (just an observation from a new user), then again I am wondering why his Academia standing is being questioned with the remaining/sound references (not mentioned) - they must hold little or no strength. I will look for a stronger reference.MegEng (talk) 14:44, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I hope my insertion above does not sound disrespectful of your discussion (I am learning and will attempt not to take input personally). Thank-you.MegEng (talk) 15:15, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's alright. This happens many times when the discussion gets heated or it goes on for a long time; we think there's something "personal" involved. All I'm doing here is debating the 'notability of the article's subject. Nothing to do with his "respectability," etc. By the way, the link you gave about him chairing some APA conference is a dead end. -The Gnome (talk) 08:02, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There's nothing wrong with having an article deleted and then reinstated after sources proving notability are found and the text is up to scratch. You're fighting to have the article staying up in Wikipedia on the wrong grounds! Most of the arguments you're offering are irrelevant, e.g. that you're a newbie, he's a nice guy, he's well respected, etc. Try to focus, if I may offer some advice, on notability. Start by examining carefully the general criteria for a person'a notability and notability criteria for academics. Take care. -The Gnome (talk) 08:02, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Gnome - thanks, I think I must have jumped to the wrong source. I'll withdraw my withdrawal pending confirmation from an independent source Ahmad is a Distinguished Fellow of the APA. Chetsford (talk) 18:24, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Chetsford and The Gnome - This links shows him with general APA membership only^[3] - the website does not show a list of Distinguished Fellowships so I would hesitate how others acquire their references. His profile on the the textbook (following those of Kaplan & Saddock's profiles) clearly says 'Distinquished Fellowship" with APA. Author of a well recognizable and respected Text book (co-author, several editions as contributing editor, etc. over several years). His post-trauma award with the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies is also an option. I have read the page on Notability several times, and again today, as you are aware the Criteria per profession varies: "Academics/professors meeting any one of the following conditions, as substantiated through reliable sources, are notable." So I will present arguments for these after some more studying.MegEng (talk) 05:04, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In other words, and to make a long story short, there is no independent confirmation of the subject being a "distinguished fellow of the APA." I'm removing the relevant claim from the BLP. -The Gnome (talk) 07:56, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, however, I added membership to APA (see reference) as a General Membership only. I am looking into the textbook further.MegEng (talk) 14:50, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please help me make up my mind by providing some support for the characterization of those textbooks as "major," so that criteria #1 or #4 of WP:NACADEMIC are met. Sincere thanks in advance. -The Gnome (talk) 11:24, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I will attempt to locate a sound reference indicating Kaplan & Sadock is a "cornerstone text in the field of psychiatry and mental health." (quote publisher)MegEng (talk) 14:50, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Gnome- Reference for Kaplan & Sadock is a top ranked medical (psychiatry) text book^[4] Also related: refer Harold Kaplan and References 18-22 on Samoon Ahmad's page.MegEng (talk) 02:41, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You keep citing that book (Sadock, Benjamin J.; Sadock, Virginia A. (2007). Kaplan and Sadock's Synopsis of Psychiatry. Behavioral Sciences/Clinical Psychiatry. USA: LWW. ISBN 978-0781773270.) but we need primary evidence of the subject's supposed "distinguished fellowishp" in the APA. Shouldn't this be evident from the APA's logs?

And, just to be clear, Kaplan is the book that is "a cornerstone text in the field of psychiatry and mental health," and not a book by Samoon Ahmad. So far, and in so many words, we have nothing of substance. -The Gnome (talk) 09:02, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You did not appear to be considering what DGG forwarded above "Coauthor of parts of major textbooks is enough to meet WP:Prof. AS NOTED HERE: "Kaplan & Sadock's pocket handbook of clinical psychiatry" (2018 - this latest book is CO-AUTHORED by Sammon Ahmad and his name is CLEARLY noted as one of the 3 authors) - see link^[5] So why are you not making an effort to consider this? You appear fixated on the APA despite other criteria that the subject is able to fulfill.MegEng (talk) 14:56, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Confrontational attitude and personal attacks do not get contributors very far in Wikipedia, MegEng, rest assured of that. You may want to consider improving your manners.

The Gnome and DGG I want to apologize for my comments, I did not mean them to be combative or disrespectful. When I re-read them, I see now how they could be perceived as such and I am truly sorry. At the time, I was frustrated. Since I started this page, it has held a deletion notice, it got to me. That is no excuse. I forgot you both are volunteers as well, and helping with your time to ensure Wikipedia users follow guidelines. And it's needed. I respect both your advice and help. Please accept my apology and I will step back from the discussion. Sincerely, MegEng (talk) 01:29, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Looking in more detail, authorship of a textbook or chapter is a little difficult to apply in clinical medicine, because almost all major textbooks are multi-authored, with individual authors contributing chapters in their fields. Even editor of such a book is sometimes difficult to determine, because here too there are usually several, and the most prominent name is the usually decreased famous author of the first edition. Additionally, Kaplan & Sadock's Pocket Handbook of Psychiatric Drug Treatment and Kaplan and Sadock's Concise Textbook of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry are not formal textbooks in the usual sense, but shorter books of the sort widely used for review and quick reference. Some such books can be really important or even famous, but my usual criteria will not determine this--they are almost never assigned as textbooks and rarely collected by libraries. I am no longer sure that authorship of a chapter in such a book would itself be sufficient to meet WP:PROF; but he is one of the principal current editors of the books, and that is probably sufficient. In addition to the book there are a few papers shown in Google Scholar--the most cited have 129 and 63 references--but there are almost no other papers and I don't think that by itself shows notability either. DGG ( talk ) 21:24, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok (it appears he was contributing editor for past 10+ years on the majority of the handbooks). An additional reference notes him as contributing-Author for a 2009 textbook "Kaplan & Sadock's concise textbook of child and adolescent psychiatry"^[6] On a different note, does he not satisfy Criteria 2 as recipient of the "Frank Ochberg Award for Media and Trauma Study (ISTSS) which "recognizes significant contributions by clinicians and researchers on the relationship of media and trauma"?^[7] which ties in with his research contributions.MegEng (talk) 03:01, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It6 is not an award of major significance. Even if the Society is a major national organization, it's highest award is its Lifetime Achievement Award, and there are other awards for "outstanding" achievements. This is just for "significant", [9]. Trying to make a case with material like this gives an impression of a possible overcommitment. A few of my first articles were deleted; try not to takes things like this as major blows, and keep going on others. DGG ( talk ) 08:46, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thank-you.MegEng (talk) 17:01, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Being the "principal current editor" of a layman's guide, instead of a major scientific book, is IMVHO stretching the claim to notability, though I fully respect your opinion to "keep" this article. -The Gnome (talk) 11:44, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete inflated claims. Writing a chapter in a text book, heading a clinical unit at Bellevue Hospital, and chairing a paper session at the annual meeting of the American Psychiatric Association (where a few hundred such sessions are held every year) are all indications of being a respected clinician - NOT of being a notable psychiatrist.

Disagree on notability. Article appears similar in notability to Aaron Lee, Joshua Ip, Rain Chudori, Cyril Wong. See awards from CINE Golden Eagle Awards, Jane Goodall Institute, My Rode Reel Film Festival; publications by Cicada Magazine, Cosmonauts Avenue, Wildness; press references from The Straits Times, India-West, Wattpad; record holder with relation to a notable literary prize ("She is primarily known as the youngest Singaporean ever to be nominated for the Pushcart Prize and is a two-time nominee"); notability of "Half Mystic" section ("Half Mystic's staff, readers, contributors, and authors have been published and profiled in Best of the Net, Best American Poetry, Best New Poets, The Paris Review, Rolling Stone, NPR, The Huffington Post, The Chicago Tribune, and The New York Times, and are Pushcart Prize, MTV Video Music Awards, and Grammy nominees"); recognition for books ("poems for the sound of the sky before thunder debuted at the 2017 Singapore Writers Festival, while Heaven or This has been read by over 30,000 people"). All sources appear legitimate at least for those instances.

Article has unnecessary information which should be culled - mental disorder information, full list of publications and awards, etc. That the author is 18 years old and has mental disorders is irrelevant to this discussion. Not a reason to keep or delete the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lillian Paterson (talk • contribs) 06:57, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep In agreement with Lillian Paterson. All the references are excessive but the ones I checked were for real. Also Googled the author and found a wealth of legitimate articles on her work, in addition to her record holder status for a notable writing award and recognition by Singapore Writers Festival of her last book.

Keep There is enough here to satisfy WP:GNG for me, as for WP:NFOOTBALL, we don't always recognise playing in Europa League qualifying rounds as passing, but the coverage for that has swayed my argument for keep. Govvy (talk) 14:02, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

With one exception, all of the sources listed are either match reports, statistical profiles, or transfer announcements, all of which are routine sports coverage. The only source that differs is the article titled "Ante Will Find a Way", which was written by Bakmaz himself and is not independent of the subject. Sir Sputnik (talk) 14:35, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails NFOOTY as has not played or managed senior international football nor played or managed in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG. Although there are a number of references, I agree with the analysis above that they are routine reports that do not discuss the player in any real depth.

Delete While appreciating the efforts made by this article's creator to add sources in a genuine attempt to demonstrate general notability, I don't think they've managed to. GNG requires significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject. The independent sources present in the article are routine match reports, transfer news, and namechecks; none discuss Mr Bakmaz or his career in any detail. The only significant coverage is still the article written by the subject himself, which can't be used towards GNG. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 17:38, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep - lacking as the article is, with three distinct sources, two of which are clearly in-depth, and a potential other source (my google didn't feel like translating) I feel that WP:NVG is satisfied - its notability is self-derived from multiple sources in its own right.

The result was keep. Closed early per WP:SNOW. At 26 to 8, the possibility of a "delete" consensus emerging from this is nil. In terms of strength of argument, the issue is whether this is a BLP1E case, but reasonable arguments are made on both sides and it's essentially a matter of editorial judgment.

Tammie Jo Bonnell[edit]

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

The subject was the pilot of Southwest Airlines Flight 1380 which had an engine failure and decompression. She followed procedure and landed the plane safely. That makes her a reliable employee, not a hero, and certainly not notable. Likewise, being "one of the first female fighter pilots in the United States Navy" is not notable as others preceded her.

Keep The subject clearly passes WP:BASIC as there is extensive global coverage of her specifically in numerous quality sources such as the NYT and BBC. There is detailed coverage of her in sources which pre-date the latest incident and so she has multiple claims to notability. The details of her personal life are appropriate for a fully-rounded biography and the fact that such details are available further demonstrates her notability. Note that she is being compared to Chesley Sullenberger and it would be iniquitous to delete a woman's article while keeping an equivalent man. Andrew D. (talk) 11:07, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think so. WP:BASIC points out that "trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability." That is exactly the problem here. Also, Sullenberger performed a famous feat of notably outstanding airmanship, while Bonnell's was mundane. Raising gender bias as an excuse is wholly invidious and speaks more to the subjectivity of the commentator. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 14:02, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This AFD is premature. News of her background is still surfacing. Per Australian Broadcasting Company, International Business Times, One of the first US Navy female fighter pilots, instructor, Lt. Commander. Her background is still surfacing, but enough is coming forward to keep this article. — Maile (talk) 14:01, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The day the article is created, people are already rushing to delete it. [12] Capt. Tammie Jo (Bonnell ’83) Shults is one of the first female fighter pilots for the U.S. Navy. Searching for her as "Tammie Jo Shults", her name before marriage I assume, gets some results also, sorting through all of that now. I agree with others, more about her is coming out, no reason to rush to delete this. Many like myself will see her in the news and search Wikipedia for an article about her.

Merge/Keep with Draft:Tammie Jo Shults I feel the article should be kept and merged with the article under development which uses her current legal name as used widely in the press. That article then can be moved into the main namespace. As for notability I think that while she is certainly now primarily notable for her actions on flight SWA 1380 in addition to that recognition of her as the first female naval aviator to fly the F/A-18 is independently notable and together make her article worth keeping. Phil (talk) 14:21, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Her married name already exists in mainspace as Tammie Jo Shults. Draft space is too slow for such a hot topic. Andrew D. (talk) 14:47, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not particular about which article is kept just believe that A) the article is notable and warrants keeping and B) it is more appropriate to have her maiden name redirect to her current legal name and that receiving coverage than the other way around. While I think the Draft article could have been moved to main some time ago, this AfD itself is some evidence it wasn't the wrong decision to proceed with some deliberation. Wikipedia doesn't need to be in a rush. We just need to keep moving in the right direction :) Phil (talk) 14:54, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Wonder if the subject was a male if a quick deletion request notice would’ve been issued. Bohbye (talk) 14:37, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I find this comment insulting. I (and possibly most in the list of contributors above) did never consider her gender when I put forward my opinion on this AfD. As User:Maile66 noted above, the same discussion happened also for Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger's bio. By the way. I don't think that bringing an article into scrutiny regarding its notability is wrong; in fact this test makes an article stronger if it survives. Rentzepopoulos (talk) 15:02, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rentzepopoulos Try not to let the sun go down on feeling insulted (meaning...don't hold on to it). Wikipedia is known for having a problem with gender bias, and it's been covered in the Signpost and numerous media. It's why Wikiproject Women in Red exists. I listed the Chesley Sullenberger AFD to illustrate a different issue. That nomination came from a drive-by IP. The AFD process is flawed in that way, that the nomination can be made by anyone, whether they know anything about the subject matter, or about how Wikipedia works, or even if they're over the age of 10. I'd prefer that AFD be a process that requires an article exist for a week or so, and let CSD cover the rest. But there are probably a lot of reasons why that doesn't exist, and this is not the place to debate the system, I guess. — Maile (talk) 15:31, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rentzepopoulos The simple fact that articles related to females on wikipedia are so easily catogorised as not notable or low profile, that is insulting. This person is a pioneer in military aviation who faught hard for equality in an all male dominated military and was notable way before she was the Captain of flight 1380, and in her honor she will have equality here on wikipedia.

Keep « That makes her a reliable employee, not a hero, and certainly not notable ». A Wikipedia article is not a medal or an award that would be only "deserved" to "heroes". We have articles about hot dog vendors or groundskeepers. What makes them have articles on Wikipedia is not that they are heroes or they're reliable in their job, but there are several sources and references, in major newspaper for example, about them specifically ; so we can write a reliable and factual article about them.

Keep I did a Google search and she's talked about in depth, including her past accomplishments.[13] WP:BLP1E states that a person may not qualify for an article if they fulfill several requirements. "If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event." That's not the case here as events from her past are covered signficantly. Additionally, it only applies "If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented." The event is notable enough for its own page (Southwest Airlines Flight 1380), and this individual's role was substantial and well documented. It seems clear to me that WP:BLP1E doesn't apply here. Lonehexagon (talk) 23:07, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The AfD and this discussion should be renamed or merged to properly identify with the page Tammie Jo Shults. There is so much more data under her current name Tammie Jo Shults and less under Tammie Jo Bonnell (maiden name). It only makes sense that a fair discussion will allow fellow editors to search under the correct name when clicking the links appearing on the top of the discussion Bohbye (talk) 00:17, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Since Tammie Jo Bonnell is already a re-direct (as mentioned above), if you pull up the Tammie Jo Shults article, and look for "What links here", this AFD template, as well as everything else linked to Tammie Jo Bonnell is already attached to the Tammie Jo Shults article. Also, this discussion is linked to at least one tracking tool at Wikimedia Labs, and I think moving/merging would pretty much not work with them. — Maile (talk) 00:31, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly. There is no notable event before this plane accident. This plane accident makes one event. That means, per ONEEVENT, no article. Content in Southwest Airlines Flight 1380? Heck yes. Fill up a section. That's where it belongs, surely. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 07:35, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The subject passes policies such as WP:BLP1E because her role in the event was a major one and she had detailed coverage prior to the event. See Lonehexagon's analysis above which gets this right. Andrew D. (talk) 08:01, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep A few specifics:
1. WP:BLP1E and WP:1E do not apply because there is sufficient coverage in Military Fly Moms (2012) and Call Sign Revlon (1998) to show she's known for more than a single event. The standard here, in my long experience at AFD not been "two or more events each of which is separately notable", but "enough coverage to show notability based on sources referring to more than one event." The difference is subtle but important.
2. Shults is not a low-profile individual. She has made herself the subject of a book (Military Fly Moms), she's publicly advocated Congress for female pilots (as described in Call Sign Revlon), and she's put herself the very public position of being a groundbreaking fighter pilot. As such, BLP1E point 2 does not apply, and so, BLP1E does not apply.
3. WP:1E doesn't require merging with the event, in my view, because I've seen enough coverage (e.g., [14][15], and many similar) to warrant separate coverage. --joe decker ^talk 08:03, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not trying to argue, but just for the record, "her part in the accident" (which wasn't a part in the accident since it was mechanically-based) was far from inflated. How she handled keeping the plane from disaster was drawn from her experience as a Naval Aviator piloting three different tailhook jets but also having been a Navy jet instructor in the Wing. She didn't just land the plane, the steps she took prior to landing kept the incident from being total tragedy. -- ψλ ● ✉ ✓ 13:44, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Close but no cigar. She is a low-profile individual and likely to remain one. We don't have articles on pilots because they safely landed an aircraft with an engine out. She is a very capable pilot but comparing her to Chesley Sullenberger is ridiculous. The argument that she is notable in part because she got decorations from the military are weak. There are plenty of decorated ex-military pilots who have pulled off hairier landings, should we have articles on them. No. - Samf4u (talk) 14:39, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Doesn't meet any of the notability criteria for boxers. The most major result I could find for him was first round loss in the European junior boxing championships by a score of 21-6. His three pro victories have come against boxers with a combined total of zero wins and 17 losses. The coverage appears to be routine sports reporting and not enough to meet WP:GNG.

Keep or may be merged. Generally such guidelines are not that strict when it applies to Wikipedia:Notability (high schools), and coverage does exist [17] for example. A high school shouldn't be considered notable only when some incidents that attract national news coverage occur, which unfortunately does happen. Acnetj (talk) 09:31, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'll just comment that the coverage mentioned above amounts to no more than mention of an incident involving a student of that school; it's not about the school itself. The school does exists; that much is not disputed and we need no proof of it. The only question put forth is whether or not the subject of the article meets the criteria of independent notability as set down by the rules. -The Gnome (talk) 14:39, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Acnetj would seem correct by bringing up WP:NHS, frequently considered. The Gnome is correct by nominating this as WP:NSCHOOL which is somewhat stricter - the key mention in WP:NONPROFIT is "[supported by news sources] outside the organization's local area.", specifically mentioning schools. In effect, looking round, the formal rules are often repudiated by AfD consensus - really WP:NSCHOOL seems to be treated more as a guideline than a policy (and yes I am aware of numbers of AfD actions between the three users here). Nosebagbear (talk) 10:36, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment WP:NSCHOOL is a rule, while WP:HIGHSCHOOL is an essay. Moreover, the latter is a descriptive rather than a prescriptive text, i.e. it describes what's happening; it does not prescribe what should happen. (Articles on high schools and secondary schools, with rare exceptions, have been kept when nominated at AfD.) But even the WP:HIGHSCHOOL essay states quite clearly that articles on schools must be able to meet notability standards, such as those at WP:N and WP:NORG specifically. This is the basis of the nomination, in fact. -The Gnome (talk) 14:39, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

keep as Wikipedia:Notability (high schools) essay points out, high school articles are typically kept. Granted there is an abundance of local coverage (so much it's hard to leaf through the listings of obituaries and other local events), but the events from a decade ago (noted by the nominator) would also clear WP:GNG and notability is not temporary. If this one is deleted, it will (like so many others) eventually be brought back when someone finds "the golden ticket" of articles printed online to show that "yes this is as good as any other high school article that we have kept."--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:20, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ugh. Do not keep just because it is a high school. There needs to be potential to write some sort of article based on its history.

Question According to the relevant Wikipedia article, there are some twenty six thousand public high-schools in the United States alone (2001 census). I'd guess there are at least as many in Europe, if not more, but let's not extend this beyond the US. If the default position is to allow articles about high schools to remain up, no matter what, are we to eventually have a Wikipedia article for each and every one of those twenty six thousand schools? -The Gnome (talk) 23:35, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I don't necessarily have an issue with that just because there is a high number of high schools. Wikipedia has articles on many things as well including Congressional and other legislative districts. I think high schools are as notable if not notable than these things, if not even more than school districts. If you're a student or a parent, you deal with school as an institution by itself. You don't consider yourself dealing with a branch of a school district. This is very different than eating at a franchise fast food chain or going to a branch of an international bank. When there's a school reunion, there's a school reunion, not a school district reunion. I acknowledge that some schools, just by virtue of status and history, will be more notable than others (such as a comprehensive high school with a 100 year old history versus some newly formed charter school with low enrollment, or a continuation school for troubled students). My point is that the notability should not be set at when the high school has gotten some kind of national news coverage. High schools generally don't get national news coverage unless it is for some kind of human interest stories, or some tragic events. Acnetj (talk) 00:43, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I understand and accept that Wikipedia is slanted towards education. And that, consequently, it takes a more lenient view of schools, as subjects of articles. I guess this means we'd be OK with each and every one of the primary and secondary educational institutions in the world having its own article in Wikipedia. And why not, after all? The bandwidth appears to be freely available. This is very interesting. -The Gnome (talk) 06:45, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I am not suggesting that every school should have its own article. I just think that a comprehensive high school should not be considered for deletion for the "lack of notability," with a standard that many schools cannot consistently meet. I accept the current consensus on the topic. Acnetj (talk) 21:05, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

More comment And one of the things that make educational institution notable is the alumni, while a very interesting detail it is apart from the school's current status (or the status when that notable alumni were attending while not notable). I think it would be valuable that Wikipedia can include notable alumni on the school's page, but should not have the notability of the school be considered whether the school has notable alumni. Acnetj (talk) 00:50, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. What you're saying is essentially a suggestion for the content of articles about schools; it has nothing to do with notability as a criterion for inclusion. Again, the sole criterion appears to be the mere attribute of the subject, i.e. of being a school; not its notability at all. Which reaffirms the position that every school can and should have its own Wikipedia page. Those who do not already have one should be made aware of this and get up to speed. -The Gnome (talk) 06:45, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: It has been extremely rare (if not never) that an American public high school has been deemed non-notable.

Keep Schools are generally (overwhelmingly) found to be notable. We don't delete articles because they are incomplete. Arguments along the lines of "well if we gave every school a page..." are irrelevant. Wikipedia is not paper, there is not a finite number of pages. Egaoblai (talk) 22:42, 20 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Therefore, in so many words, every American, public school does in fact merit a Wikipedia page ("infinite number of pages", etc) and no AfD should ever be raised again about an American, public school. I honestly did not know this. -The Gnome (talk) 06:18, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, if the school is verifiable (it can be shown to exist) then it will be notable too, as schools are reference points and instituions for communities. Egaoblai (talk) 11:26, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks again, Egaoblai. You might want to follow or contribute to this discussion. And that goes for everyone else too. The issue is more significant than a single AfD. -The Gnome (talk) 12:38, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the historical and other sources in the article do provide evidence of notability, and is further confirmed by looking at the multiple sources in the search engines, please do the search appropriately, not quotes - there are sources over decades), see also, it's independently nationally ranked. Alanscottwalker (talk) 13:06, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep in addition to the above arguments, another reason - morbid, but practical - is that the U.S. high schools is where school shootings tend to occur. See for example: Forest High School (Florida), the site of the latest shooting. (Fortunately, no one was killed.) In general, high schools are of sufficient public interest and should be kept. K.e.coffman (talk) 23:30, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I sure hope anyone who closes this as keep does so because someone has demonstrated significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject beyond routine local news stories (i.e. WP:N), and not because of the bulk of the keep !vote rationales presented thus far. I don't know if this should be kept or deleted (I haven't researched it because I was made aware of this thread via a discussion that could be framed as canvassing, and thus won't be !voting), but I will be disappointed if the closer gives any weight at all to arguments based on a failed proposal-turned-essay, arguments that directly conflict with this well advertised, well attended, unchallenged RfC (i.e. the circular "keep because we have kept schools in the past"), or arguments that are either WP:AADD or otherwise have no basis in policy, e.g. "keep because we should keep high schools," "keep because it's useful," "keep because they're important," "keep because famous people went there", "keep because they're usually notable", or -- I don't even know how to classify this one -- "keep because someone might get shot there someday" [??]. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 00:44, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

For the record, I did not try to "canvass" anyone. The discussion I started over at the Notability talk-page I consider, of course, far more important than a single AfD process, such as this one. Perhaps I was in error to start the general discussion before this AfD closed down. Take care. -The Gnome (talk) 08:38, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I have no reason to suspect anything but good faith.--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:50, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment So far, the voting is overwhelmingly in favor of keeping the article, running something like 8 to 1. Note, however, that the justifications provided for 7 out of the 8 "keep" votes are all along the same line, i.e. every high school is inherently notable and therefore worthy of an article:

Generally guidelines [such as WP:ORG and WP:NSCHOOL] are not that strict when it applies to high schools. A high school shouldn't be considered notable only when some incidents that attract national news coverage occur.
High school articles are typically kept.
High schools are generally kept at AfD.
Falling towards 'keep' is the right thing to do.
It has been extremely rare (if not never) that an American public high school has been deemed non-notable.
Schools are generally (overwhelmingly) found to be notable. We don't delete articles because they are incomplete. If the school is verifiable (it can be shown to exist) then it will be notable too.
In general, high schools are of sufficient public interest and should be kept.

I'm eagerly waiting not so much for the decision but for the justification the closing admin will provide. -The Gnome (talk) 08:38, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's a good point, I admit. High school articles that go to deletion discussions will sometimes end up at this point and on many levels I find agreement. I'll offer one more reason to keep: the policy ignore all rules. Editors overwhelmingly and consistently support having articles on high schools. Consensus is a cruel mistress...--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:49, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

And I'm saying, Paul McDonald, let's make an honest woman out of consensus! If our preferred mistress is "keep all school articles," then we should get married to it officially, i.e. have an rule explicitly saying so. Why have this waste of time and space on AfDs about schools? Let's make it official. That's why I initiated the general discussion. -The Gnome (talk) 08:54, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Best of luck to you. I can't help but agree with your logic, but I'm not enthusiastic about personally takings on such a challenge. Until then, back to this article in question I retain my position for the reasons above..--Paul McDonald (talk) 11:08, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

thanks, this is good summary of the reasons we should keep this article. Egaoblai (talk) 17:36, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Well explained. It is somewhat indicative of the community being slightly lazy since otherwise we'd encourage formally changing the notability policy on it.Nosebagbear (talk) 08:28, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would have precisely zero problems with Wikipedia changing the policy and allowing every single school on mother Earth to be able to have, by default, its own, separate, Wikipedia page. (Such a policy would mandate placing exceptions to WP:NOTDIRECTORY, as well, but that's trivial work.) But I'm very uncomfortable with a custom, i.e. a social consensus, nullifying a rule yet us doing nothing about the rule.

Keep plenty of coverage in reliable independent sources of this historic public high school. Contrary to various misstatements we do not keep articles on all schools or even all high schools. Just major notable ones such as this one serving its community for more than 100 years. FloridaArmy (talk) 09:03, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I quoted verbatim all statements, precisely so that there'd be no "misstatements." On the substance of your input, longevity does not equal notability. -The Gnome (talk) 09:07, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I still don't see it meeting GNG if that's what you're assuming. No articles have been added to the article or suggested to be added to the article that have demonstrated significant coverage. So again you're assuming it is inherently notable on the sole basis of being an American public high school that's over 100 years old. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 09:46, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

FloridaArmy are you sure it's not coverage for the Iowa high school of the same name? [20] [21] [22] So I am not sure what this "plenty of coverage" is. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:16, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. It has the kind of coverage typical of an American public high school, and enough of it to pass GNG as it has been applied to such schools by long, long standing consensus: educational issues [23][24][25][26], sports [27], historical content [28][29][30], a notable alumnus [31], news coverage and controversy [32][33][34][35], etc. --Arxiloxos (talk) 22:13, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep - I'm not a Dr. Who fan, and know nothing about this character, but I skimmed the article and it appears to be well written, and while the sourcing is light, it's sourced using a Dr. Who guidebook. It is also acceptably integrated with links to other Dr. Who articles, so I don't see a compelling reason to delete it.

Lakes in the Timmins Area[edit]

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

List, flagged as unreferenced since July 2011 without improvement, of almost entirely non-notable lakes in and around a single city. Just three of the lakes here currently have articles to link to, and two of those are up for AFD -- so this amounts to a list of just one notable lake and 20 non-notable ones, in a city where the article claims the existence of four thousand lakes inside the city limits -- but that number's not credible absent verifiability in a reliable source, and not all of the lakes listed here are in Timmins instead of just being in the broader Timmins area. So it's not a list that there's any particular value in maintaining -- I literally can't find any evidence of a list like this existing for any other city of Timmins' modest size anywhere else on earth.

Weak Keep There's a fair supply of general sources, with ICLIF showing up quite a lot in regional news, as well as some more specifically related to their CEO and thus ICLIF's "ideology" (I've excluded those, but he writes in Forbes frequently). They are of variable, but decent, quality. They have covered some areas tagged as unsupported fairly well while leaving others absent. ~~I'm unsure where they leave the article as a whole in terms of WP:GNG~~ Nosebagbear (talk) 15:46, 4 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Edge Weekly", "The Star", "Hindu Business Line", Strategy + Business (most directly relevant to ICLIF CEO/ideology, less about structure), "Sunday Observer". Nosebagbear (talk)

Weak keep. The article is cruft, and needs heavy pruning to be nonpromotional. But there are just enough RS listed that are *about* Iclif to meet the GNG bar. (There are also articles in the sources which are passing mentions, references which are about people who happen to be affiliated with Iclif, and some sources where I suspect whether they are truly unbiased and independent - but still enough to go by.)

Update: The collections look real, so notability is met. I have added a few more sources. If someone did a German/Austrian search that would help. A more extensive CV can be found here, which could be helpful for the long Austrian gallery/museum names (e.g. "Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlung, München").

As per the above, it seems I was wrong and it meets WP:Artist so AfD can be closed. And thanks for working on the article to improve.

Alpha Theta Beta[edit]

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

Non-notable local sorority and has no independent sources (apart from a reference to a charity which does not discuss the sorority in question). Had redirected it to parent university but article creator reverted redirection. IronGargoyle (talk) 00:11, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect was reverted because the university has no mention of the sorority whatsoever. The Sorority is the foundation of greek life at the university and has a rich history. There are other local organizations listed in the fraternities and sororities list with even more vague pages than this one. I am a college student writing this article so it is challenging to find sources but they exist, and the page was deleted mere hours after creation even though I had plans of working on it further.

Delete breach of WP:GNG, WP:OTHER, also potential COI issues (though a notification has now been made on userpage, and the article isn't wildly promotional).

Comment - @JillianLaManna: - Hi, a couple of comments on your initial response - while you are no doubt correct that there are other, worse, frat/sorority pages, WP:OTHER means that their lack of quality doesn't mean your's get in - it's irritating, but otherwise we'd have to delete in a very straight order. Regarding deletion - if you want you can create things in your sandbox (button at top-right), if you haven't already made one. Then you can make it passable before submitting. There are a couple of sources that mention ATB, but I think they might not be the sorority, and in any case are on student newspapers, which won't be considered reliable.

Comment @JillianLaManna:Searching for sources...
As a general reminder, sources don't *have* to be online, it would be entirely possible to keep the article based on one article in Newsday or the Long Island press from something like the 50th anniversary celebration.Naraht (talk) 19:33, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

https://longislandreport.org/special-projects/happy-birthday-hofstras-alpha-theta-beta-turns-75/12508 (But I think the LIR is related to Hofstra)

http://thetatau.org/Websites/thetatauhq/images/Gear_Issues/GearS12web_final.pdf definitely a secondary source.

- Avoid putting too much faith in the previous PROD; I have off-Wiki evidence confirming what was said at the BLP board, that this was placed as a revenge for off-Wiki matters.

Keep but expand Writer Steven Christopher Parker (who seems to be the same person based on acting credits mentioned in article, gets coverage for writing and directing a musical parody of Game of Thrones (also references previous spoofs by him.) The GOT parody got him an interview and a not-bad review the NYT. The current stub does little to establish notability (and the Broadway focus of his career means that IMDB is little help) but there is significant creative work that got covered in WP:RS.
