• Another reply From what you have written it appears possible that this Wiremu Tamihana may have played a significant role in the New Zealand land confiscations but Wikipedia would need reliable third party sources such as book references or journal articles to establish this.

• Keep. The article is in a sad state, but the subject quite is quite clearly notable as should be evident in a WP:BEFORE. Article does assert significance (political leader, conquest). In terms of WP:SIGCOV - the subject is the subject of at least two full length books - by Stokes - [1][2] and Rickard - [3]. A book chapter - here. And a bunch of additional sources - clearly passes WP:SIGCOV, and possibly some SNGs (e.g. SOLDIER and NPOL come to mind). Icewhiz (talk) 14:15, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You're confusing the subject of this AFD with another Wiremu Tamihana (who already has a page). This Wiremu Tamihana (Te Matawhitu) does not appear to be related, and has no obvious claims of notability. Ross Finlayson (talk) 14:58, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Subject fails WP:NACTOR since she has not had significant roles in multiple productions. Subject does not meet WP:NAUTHOR since her only published work was not widely discussed by independent, reliable sources. Subject fails WP:GNG because she has not received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of her.

• Comment: Now with the analysis of sources (only 56 of them)
  • 1: subject not mentioned
  • 2: press release, by the subject, of a non-notable musical
  • 3: IMDb reference, showing that the subject was uncredited as a minor character in an episode of a TV series
  • 4: subject's IMDb page (not a reliable source). Lots of uncredited parts, minor parts and shorts. No significant roles on sight.
  • 5: Youtube. A 6-minute production, not independent
  • 6: website by the subject, not independent coverage
  • 7: Youtube, not independent
  • 8: Kickstarter? Not RS
  • 9: IMDb, again, not reliable
  • 10: Talent management website, can't spot mention of subject anywhere
  • 11: subject's personal blog
  • 12: 404
  • 13: the subject's magazine again, not independent coverage
  • 14: apparently the subject is editor here, not independent
  • 15: 404, award does not seem notable since I can't find much about it
  • 16: leads to the front page of a local newspaper, subject not mentioned
  • 17 to 42: works by the subject, not about the subject - yes, I checked them all
  • 43: subject's magazine, not independent coverage
  • 44: "photos courtesy of Rachel Galvin", not independent
  • 45: 404
  • 46: subject also works here apparently, so that's not independent
  • 47: not independent
  • 48: 404
  • 49: This one is independent of the subject
  • 50: interview, not independent of subject
  • 51: 404
  • 52: 404
  • 53: subject not mentioned
  • 54: subject not mentioned
  • 55: 404
  • 56: subject illustrated a book that is on Amazon.

My WP:BEFORE did not find anything beyond these links, so that's a WP:GNG failure. I could not find any reviews of her book "Basics of the Biz:: A Holistic Approach to becoming an Actor" so that's a WP:NAUTHOR failure. RetiredDuke (talk) 21:21, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable film per WP:NF BOVINEBOY2008 15:45, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. When I deproded this I indicated that I had found coverage, which the nominator apparently chose not to check on, also not really providing much of a deletion rationale. There is significant coverage of the film from Regina Leader-Post, The Globe & Mail, and several others. I don't know whether these would all be considered reliable sources, but coverage includes [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11]. --Michig (talk) 17:46, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Neutral - So, in this case, only the reviews would generally be relevant. Of the sources stated, only #3 of the above (Christian Cinema) is both a review and a reliable review site big enough to satisfy the requirements in NFILM. There are a couple of similar christian reviews I found online, but they are all fairly small blogs that aren't sufficiently reliable, I believe. Nosebagbear (talk) 18:05, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Why would only reviews be relevant? Articles about the making of the film are just as relevant. --Michig (talk) 18:07, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• I had considered that this would have been a rare film that could have qualified during production on that grounds, but went off the usually executed notability rules on films. You are correct of course that NFILM specifically uses GNG as its base. Most of the sources are however primarily interview based, and given their vested interests, fail independent - along with much of the remaining content being synopsis (irrelevant) or functionally routine. I do think CBC (#5) passes. As to whether a merging of the two satisfies - I'm unsure. Nosebagbear (talk) 18:19, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• I think you may be misunderstanding how "during the production process" coverage works. If the article gets created while the film is still in the production pipeline, then it's true that we do a depth test to determine whether there's enough production coverage to make it special despite not actually having been released yet — but once the film has been released, we don't run the production coverage through the wringers anymore. Once the film has been released, production coverage counts for exactly the same toward establishing notability as post-release coverage does — it doesn't necessarily always count as enough to get an unreleased film over the bar all by itself, but for a released film it has the exact same value as any other coverage. You're correct that some of Michig's sources aren't as strong as others are, but there are enough strong ones to get this over the bar and even the lesser ones aren't entirely unusable — but since the film has been released to the general public the question of whether any given piece of coverage happened before or after the release date is not relevant to the determination anymore. In actual fact, a genuinely good article about a film should, if possible, contain content and sourcing about its production process — that's obviously not always possible to do for every film, but an article should contain that kind of content if production sourcing is available to add it with.

• Keep per the coverage found by Michig. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 09:06, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per sources found by Michig. The interview sources aren't ideal, but can absolutely still be used as long as there are other solid sources in the mix — Q&A interviews don't carry a notability pass all by themselves if they're the only sources that can be found, but they are perfectly acceptable for use as sourcing for stray facts if there are enough quality sources elsewhere in the sourcing pool to cover off passage of WP:GNG and WP:NFILM, which there are in this instance. As I noted above, pre-release production sourcing is only weight-tested if the film is still in the production pipeline as of the time we're checking the sources — if the film has been released, as this has, then pre-release sourcing doesn't count for less than post-release sourcing anymore. And no, the fact that some of the sources are Christian-specific specialist media doesn't invalidate their use either — we certainly have to be cautious about using that kind of sourcing in some instances, such as POV political disputes, but sourcing the content of a Christian-themed film is not a case where their use would be problematic.

• Keep as the creating editor, I wanted to leave my comments. After covering them while studying, I was amazed Lakestar didn't have a Wikipedia article. So started the Wikipedia article as they are considered one of the biggest tech VC funds in Europe. There are various publications that give them this title and anyone who researches the subject properly will find this. Significant coverage - The article currently references 22 articles which are either mentions of investments (as mentioned above) or articles solely based on the investments. There are many more that could be used, this was merely a starting point. Articles based solely on Lakestar include New York Times, Bloomberg and TechCrunch. I would therefore say that coverage demonstrates their notability within European funding circles.

There is also information on them and their equity in Spotify. I only used one reference but again there are more. They were also a major investor in Airbnb, again adding to the notability.FiveRoses (talk) 12:04, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Ranked #6 in Europe in 2016,[12] seem to be covered as a topic (e.g. [13][14][15] (the last is Forbes staff, not a contributor)) and growing larger. Icewhiz (talk) 16:00, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete References fail the criteria for esablishing notability which is a stricter standard that that used for references that support facts/information. References are based on announcements and interviews or inclusion in lists and they fail WP:ORGIND and/or WP:CORPDEPTH. HighKing⁺⁺ 16:54, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep The sources provided by FiveRoses (talk · contribs) and Icewhiz (talk · contribs) demonstrate that the company passes Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.

  The articles contain independent analysis of the subject. For example Forbes notes (my bolding), "Where other investors have partnered with high profile friends or turned to the support of a U.S. firm, Hommels built his own, Lakestar, with competitively strong returns and a fraction of the notoriety."

  The Bloomberg News article notes (my bolding), "Venture capital firm Lakestar is attempting to raise the largest-ever European fund for startup investments -- another sign that the region’s entrepreneurs are continuing to attract floods of potential suitors."

  Cunard (talk) 10:29, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment If you take a look at WP:NCORP, the guideline for organizations/corporations, it states that references must be in-depth and not mere mentions-in-passing. The Forbes reference in an interview with Klaus Hommels and only mentions Lakestar in passing, therefore fails WP:CORPDEPTH. I would also say that a Forbes article relying extensively on an interview with a connected source such as a founder/CEO/etc contains any content where you can be sure of its independence. The Bloomberg reference is not a reliable source since it clearly states that the information is from unidentified "people with knowledge of the plans, asking not to be named because the matter was private" and the reference therefore fails WP:RS. HighKing⁺⁺ 18:30, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • I cited the Forbes article as having independent analysis of the company though I agree that it is not in-depth. I consider the Bloomberg News article to have sufficient in-depth coverage of the subject despite the "people with knowledge of the plans, asking not to be named because the matter was private" quote. Journalists frequently rely on anonymous sources for information and only print information from such sources if they trust those sources.

      Here is additional coverage about Lakestar:

      1. Shahaf, Tal (2018-11-28). "Swiss VC fund Lakestar to invest in Israel". Globes. Archived from the original on 2019-01-01. Retrieved 2019-01-01.

         The article notes:

         Swiss venture capital fund Lakestar will begin investing in Israel and is believed to have allocated tens of millions of dollars for this purpose. The fund, which has invested in companies such as Facebook, Skype, Spotify, and Airbnb, raised €500 million in two recent financing rounds. Lakestar's investment manager in Israel is Gilad Novik, who up until now represented Horizon Ventures, controlled by Chinese billionaire Li Ka-shing, in its investments in Israel.

         In Israel, Lakestar will focus on early-stage and early growth stage fintech companies planning to expand their business to Europe. It will also invest in automotive, artificial intelligence, and big data technologies.

         The article contains a quote from Gilad Novik.
      2. Butcher, Mike (2015-08-23). "Lakestar Joins Europe's Heavy-Hitter VCs With New $385M Fund". TechCrunch. Archived from the original on 2019-01-01. Retrieved 2019-01-01.

         The article notes:

         As the European startup scene has matured over the last few years, so too has the VC scene. But a handicap has always been the issue of follow-on funding. Gradually, however, the most successful firms have managed to raise new funds based on past successes. One such has been Lakestar, the early investors in Spotify, Skype and Facebook. Today they announce Lakestar fund II, a new €350m ($385m) fund, which takes its place as one of the largest funds in Europe.

         ...

         With offices in London, Berlin, Zürich and New York, the firm could be said to be in a position to bridge the continents for investors and startups alike. Just as the other, aforementioned VCs.

         It helped that Lakestar I took positions in the successful Maker Studios, which was acquired by The Walt Disney Company in 2014; and Harry’s, the US-based subscription shaving service, which has since purchased the Feintechnik razor factory in Eisfeld, Germany.

         The article contains quotes from founder Klaus Hommels.
      Cunard (talk) 20:33, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • Response The Bloomberg reference fails as a reliable source even for supporting details within an article never mind the higher standard of NCORP. We don't accept "anonymous" sources for information. The Globes reference is based entirely on information provided by the company and is standard churnalism where an "executive" is interviewed and provides forward-looking details of future plans as well as a profile. It is not intellectually independent and fails WP:ORGIND. The TechCrunch article also fails WP:ORGIND as it is "dependent coverage" since it is based on a company announcement - "Today they announce ...". Lots of similar churnalism available on the same announcement such as TechEU, Venturebeat, lots more references in the article itself and their own press release. HighKing⁺⁺ 17:00, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • Our source would be Bloomberg. Bloomberg relying in part on anonymous sources has no bearing on its very high reliability.Icewhiz (talk) 18:31, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
          • That makes no sense. How can Bloomberg have "high reliability" when it relies on information provided by an anonymous source which is not regarded as reliable? This source would be rejected if used to support facts/information attributed to the anonymous source within an article, which is a lower standard for references that those used to establish notability. The other information in the article about the company is standard template copy on the company (where they've invested, office locations, size of funds) which can be found in the PR statements. ORGIND states that a reference, for the purposes of establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject and there's no evidence of that in the Bloomberg article. HighKing⁺⁺ 18:52, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
            • Take Bloomberg to RSN - good luck. Bloomberg conducted research - part of journalistic research is relying on sources - which usually are anonymous. The use of anonymous sources (as well as analysis and synthesis of various stmts by Lakestar) are the hallmarks of a WP:SECONDARY independent journalistic piece by a RS. Icewhiz (talk) 06:59, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
              • Your response highlights the difficulties in analyzing references for the purposes of establishing notability. Never have I said that Bloomberg, the company, is not a reliable source. I am merely stating that the *reference* in question fails the criteria for establishing notability (and would also fail the criteria for supporting facts/information within an article). HighKing⁺⁺ 21:12, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
            • Bloomberg is relying on a source known to and vetted as reliable by them. Bloomberg is not disclosing that source to the reader. Using unnamed sources is a common journalistic practice. As Icewhiz noted, "Our source would be Bloomberg", not any named or unnamed source mentioned in the article.

              The TechCrunch article provides independent analysis of the subject:

              Lakestar II is the largest fund to be raised by the firm, after following on from the €135m ($150m) Lakestar I fund, which was launched in 2013. This new raise now sky-rockets it into a position close to Europe’s heavier VCs, such as Index Ventures, Accel Partners and Atomico. It means more options for European startups looking to scale in Europe, rather than having to move elsewhere. Lakestar II will be led by Lakestar’s shrewd Founder and Chairman Klaus Hommels.

              Comparing Lakestar to other "Europe's heavier VCs, such as Index Ventures, Accel Partners and Atomico" and explaining Lakestar's impact on European startups is independent analysis. This information is not present in the press release, the tech.eu article, or the VentureBeat article.

              Cunard (talk) 07:10, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

            • To further add to this, the Globes article clearly states they interviewed the Swiss ambassador, Jean-Daniel Ruch, so the assumption that Lakestar's PR team is the only source doesn't add up. As for the Bloomberg article, "Lakestar is targeting a close of around $800 million, according to three people with knowledge of the plans, asking not to be named because the matter was private." You can look at this in a number of ways, but ultimately this demonstrates that Bloomberg have researched the subject. If they hadn't, they wouldn't make this statement and would say "according to reports" or "Lakestar state," but they don't. The Bloomberg reporter clearly states he has fact checked the claims, which demonstrates original reporting.FiveRoses (talk) 01:44, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment: the sources offered above are mostly WP:SPIP, such as:

• "Venture capital firm Lakestar is attempting to raise the largest-ever European fund for startup investments
• Swiss venture capital fund Lakestar will begin investing in Israel and is believed to have allocated tens of millions of dollars for this purpose.

Emphasis mine. This is all about company's hopes and aspirations and, as such, does not meet WP:CORPDEPTH. --K.e.coffman (talk) 02:13, 3 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• • Comment for this to be WP:SPIP then you are suggesting that the New York Times, Financial Times, Bloomberg, TechCrunch and many others are all allowing Lakestar to self promote on their media platforms. There might be the odd exception of this happening with contributors, but the problem cannot be that widespread as you are suggesting. Also when the Financial Times runs an article titled "Tech investor Klaus Hommels raises new €350m fund," that is not hopes and aspirations, its financial reporting. As for Israel article, it also states "Swiss Ambassador to Israel Jean-Daniel Ruch told Globes" and then follows on "Ruch says that the Swiss embassy has so far organized visits to Israel by 12 groups and delegations of businesspeople and administration figures." Surely that demonstrates wider reporting on the subject? For SPIP to apply to that article, it would have to essentially be a redistributed press release. The announcement also came at the "Swiss embassy in Israel," so this is major news of financial investment between two countries, even if its private money.FiveRoses (talk) 01:44, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment It is not the fact that they are reporting it, it is financial reporting, but the reporting is generic, not just here, but in almost every business article that goes to Afd, and it fails WP:CORPDEPTH. The business articles that are solid on WP, and that survive from the instance they are created have independent coverage outwith financial reporting. Most financial report on here are generic, and are covered as trivia on WP:NCORP, and is explicity designed to negate the trivia as notable sources. scope_creep^Talk 11:33, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

On Wikipedia, notability is a test used by editors to decide whether a given topic warrants its own article. For people, the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be "worthy of notice"[1] or "note"[2]—that is, "remarkable"[2] or "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded"[1] within Wikipedia as a written account of that person's life. "Notable" in the sense of being famous or popular—although not irrelevant—is secondary.

The subject seems to have done nothing of historical interest. He served in the army without being distinguished, was a teacher without being distinguished, and converted to another faith, for which four decades later he suffered discrimination. These characteristics are shared with millions.

It also violates Notability in general – From Your first article

Here, there are only two in English and these are in the nature of biographical notes rather than establishing any significant achievements or roles. Jontel (talk) 11:10, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• KEEP I greatly appreciate that Jontel has given a detailed explanation of why they believe deletion to be warranted. However, I wonder to what degree WP:BEFORE was performed. I see at least three references: Jewish Quarterly in 1950 (three pages of coverage), ILBA, Israelitische Lehrerbildungsanstalt Würzburg, 1864-1938 (three pages of coverage), Jewish Quarterly in 1985 (a page of coverage). Even if these sources are not immediately available to us we know they exist and thus WP:NEXIST applies. FOARP (talk) 12:04, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Notability has nothing to with what someone did in their life. We have articles on people who get significant coverage in reliable sources and therefore an article just by virtue of being born. Notability has only to do with what is written about them. In this case there are at least two sources that provide coverage of his life. I believe he meets the notability guideline. ~ GB fan 12:11, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Other sources do WP:NEXIST, including an article in The Jewish Monthly, 1950, Volume 4, Issues 1-12, pp 265-267 [16], and four pages in the book Jakob Stoll und die Israelitische Lehrerbildungsanstalt: eine Spurensuche (2002) [17]. There is no requirement for sources to be in English - WP:NONENG. The sources cited, and these additional ones, do "have substantial discussion of the subject". The fact that there are these sources is an indication of his notability, and in fact they do state what was notable about him, that a member of an aristocratic German family converted to Judaism and was interned during WWII. RebeccaGreen (talk) 12:21, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• To aid the discussion, my primary case as stated above is WP:BIO i.e. that

  the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be "worthy of notice"[1] or "note"[2]—that is, "remarkable"[2] or "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded”

  Is conversion by a member of an aristocratic family to Judaism in the 19th century significant, interesting or unusual and, even if the latter is the case, is that really noteworthy? Internment by the Nazis, even of aristocrats, is not unusual of itself. Jontel (talk) 12:35, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We don't decide these things. We let reliable sources decide for us. They decided that this man is notable, and they did so by giving significant coverage to him. FOARP (talk) 13:30, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Passes WP:BASIC. Assessing the subject's worthiness or distinctiveness is irrelevant; what matters is whether there are sources and there are. Sources in other languages are acceptable for this purpose. Andrew D. (talk) 13:13, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: being Jewish and getting Nazis to like you is such a rare achievement it practically guarantees historical coverage. But as I'm a stickler for it I'll have a look. Here's some academic coverage. A dedicated biography linked at one of the biggest Holocaust Museums. That's enough to pass WP:BASIC, IMO. SITH (talk) 13:18, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep The University of Würzburg in northwestern Bavaria maintains a biographical database called "Jüdisches Unterfranken" (Jewish Lower Franconia). The entry "Ernst von Manstein" (see here) is not only based on individual information in English but also on two additional reliable, scientific resources in German: "Biographisches Handbuch Würzburger Juden 1900-1945" by Reiner Straetz and a proposed dissertation project by Lida Barner from the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (see the "Quellenangaben" [1016] and [1066]). --Kolya (talk) 14:23, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Contributors are putting undue weight on the existence of sources. It is unsurprising that these Jewish publications celebrate an example of conversion to Judaism. While such a conversion is gratifying to them, I suggest that such celebration does not make it generally significant. On another point, Nazi recognition of him at his funeral was presumably due to his familial relationship to Field Marshal Erich von Manstein, who was the adopted son of his brother i.e. his nephew. As per WP:BIO,

  That person A has a relationship with well-known person B, such as being a spouse or child, is not a reason for a standalone article on A (unless significant coverage can be found on A); relationships do not confer notability.

  Jontel (talk) 14:29, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We're not putting "undue weight on the existence of sources". So long as WP:NOT is not breached, the existence of significant coverage in reliable sources is the be-all and end-all of the analysis that takes place in AFD. We do not apply arbitrary measures for what is and is not notable, we let reliable sources decide what is notable - I they appear to have decided that the subject of this article is notable. FOARP (talk) 18:15, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I can see that that is what the WP:BIO says in its Basic criteria. However, as WP:N says

“Presumed" means that significant coverage in reliable sources creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject merits its own article.

If the Basic criteria was the be-all and end-all, it would seem to make a nonsense of WP:BIO’s introductory definition that

On Wikipedia, notability is a test used by editors to decide whether a given topic warrants its own article. For people, the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be "worthy of notice"[1] or "note"[2]—that is, "remarkable"[2] or "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded"[1] within Wikipedia as a written account of that person's life.

Moreover, many of the additional criteria in WP:BIO imply that people who meet the Basic criteria should not be given a page automatically. Further, Wikipedia:Introduction to deletion process says

Generally speaking, notable subjects will be those for which sufficient sourcing is available, but there are exceptions in both directions

I think that this is such an exception. Jontel (talk) 20:12, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

1. McAdams was a former mayor of a city with less than 9,000 residents. No mayors of small cities meet WP:NPOL.
2. He was a failed U.S. Senate Nominee; NPOL states that unelected candidates aren't guaranteed to be notable unless they pass GNG.
3. McAdams likely doesn't pass WP:GNG as the only coverage surrounding him is WP:MILL coverage on his failed Senate candidacy and WP:ROUTINE coverage of the local events that happened in his two-year stunt as mayor.
4. In my WP:BEFORE search (which has filtered out Senate Candidacy-related articles), I haven't found anything anywhere near notable that he has accomplished outside of the 2010 Senate election.

In light of these points, consider voting DELETE on this AfD. If anyone finds any reason to keep this article, I may consider withdrawing the nomination. ––Redditaddict69 ^{(talk) (contribs)} 08:36, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sitka AK is not large enough to hand its mayors an automatic presumption of notability just for existing as mayors, being an unsuccessful candidate in a political party's senate primary is not a notability freebie, and the article is not referenced even remotely close to well enough to make him more notable than most other smalltown mayors or unsuccessful primary candidates. Bearcat (talk) 17:55, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment: All above true. However, the US Senate election was "historical" in that it was the first successful write-in campaign, won by Murkowski.

@Dleit Ḵaa: that would then classify as WP:BLP1E. See this AfD about the highest percentage receiver of votes in a U.S. Senate race by a Green party candidate – while she did set a historical and unprecedented record, clearly this one event didn't deem her notable on Wikipedia. Being a candidate in a notable election doesn't make a person notable, either, as no policy states this. ––Redditaddict69 ^{(talk) (contribs)} 09:15, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Redditaddict69: Sure, absolutely. And thanks for looking up those examples. Being a major party candidate in a notable election might, however. My only point was that point number 2 in the nomination above didn't quite cover the entirety of the situation. Dleit Ḵaa (talk) 10:06, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Dleit Ḵaa: – on the McAdams article, there isn't even 5 sentences covering the election. That content is already present in the article so a merge isn't even necessary. Other examples of candidates in notable elections include Danny O'Connor, from the Ohio-12 special election last year and Tobey Bartee, from the MS Senate special election back in November, both of which were either deleted or redirected to their respective elections. ––Redditaddict69 ^{(talk) (contribs)} 10:36, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The only person who gains notability from Lisa Murkowski winning a write-in campaign is Lisa Murkowski — her victory does not hand special notability exemptions to everybody else in the election campaign, because notability is not inherited by simple association with a more notable person.

WP:BLP of a politician notable only for serving on a local borough council. This is not a level of political office that automatically confers a free pass over WP:NPOL, but the article is not sourced anywhere near well enough to get him over the WP:GNG bar: four of the six footnotes are to primary sources that cannot support encyclopedic notability at all, one is a piece of his own writing about something else, and the last is a short blurb in the local community pennysaver about him campaigning with a reality show contestant -- which is not nearly enough coverage to get him to the finish line all by itself as the only media source in play. People at this level of political office are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, but none of these sources are cutting it in terms of making him special.

Résumé-esque BLP of a musician, not properly referenced as having any standalone notability independent of the band he was a member of in the 1980s. The existence of solo albums is not an automatic free pass that exempts a musician from having to have reliable source coverage in media — but the references here are entirely primary sources right across the board, and even on a ProQuest search I can't find any non-trivial coverage of his solo career at all.

• Delete per nomination, on account of subject failing WP:NMUSICIAN. -The Gnome (talk) 14:45, 29 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as a pass of WP:BASIC. For example, there's coverage from his Jitters days (that is mostly about him) in "THE BAND WITH A HIT SONG -- IF ONLY THEY'D PLAY IT ON THE RADIO" by Greg Burliuk in The Whig-Standard from prehistoric December 5, 1985 (p1), and "The Jitters have finally settled down" by John Mackie in The Vancouver Sun from December 17, 1987 (pF2). There's also coverage of his solo days in "Blair Packham's song pain, anger and regret" by Greg Quill in the Ontario edition of the Toronto Star from April 22, 2004 (pG3). Looks like enough for a WP:BASIC pass (and solo coverage means no simple redirect to the Jitters). Admittedly the article needs some work. Bakazaka (talk) 04:19, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete This “article” is a resume.Trillfendi (talk) 16:08, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete or Redirect to The Jitters in the most charitable of decisions, for I'm not entirely convinced that article has enough good references to remain (although in fairness most of their non-routine coverage likely pre-dates extensive internet sources.) But clearly, what editor Bakazaka found above, the references that do exist are mostly in context of the subject's membership in that band, or from a trivial, small-time source ShelbyMarion (talk) 19:46, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge the relevant verifiable information to The Jitters. There's some coverage of Packham's solo/production work around (e.g. [19]), but not enough for a standalone article, but as a key member of a notable band, his activities since leaving the band are of encyclopedic interest. --Michig (talk) 07:55, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• He did exist, and was indeed the acting governor of Fiume several times (see hu:Fiume_kormányzóinak_listája, Gaál Tibor), but can't find out much more about him. – Alensha ^talk 14:29, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom. While importance actually is asserted ("can be considered as the single most important person at the gubernium in Fiume in the period 1896-1906"), it is not substantiated in any way (i.e. how and why). I'd imagine this bio could not pass WP:GNG - at any rate, there is no evidence it passes now, because there are no sources - and the same could be true for most listed in List of governors and heads of state of Fiume (which is what lists are for, anyway). I'd be, of course, more than willing to change my position here if sources should be found. GregorB (talk) 14:06, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody with good access to archival Italian or Croatian sources (books, old media reportage from his own era, etc.) can do better than this. There is a potentially valid notability claim here, but it isn't one that's "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be referenced properly. Wikipedia's notability criteria are not passed by what the article says, they're passed by how well the article references what it says to reliable sources. Bearcat (talk) 18:08, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak delete Unsourced BLP?!? I can only find directory listings of him - note Fiume was more heavily Italian during this time frame than Croatian. SportingFlyer talk 00:53, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as not independently notable; merge the gist to List of oldest cats; we have list articles in part to preserve encyclopedically meaningful information – non-trivia, that does not fail WP:NOT#INDISCRIMINATE, but which doesn't rise to WP:GNG level and which probably has no possibility of article expansion. A former "world's oldest cat" who no longer is, isn't something any RS is every likely to write an article about ever again, so we'll never get better sourcing and more detail than we already have, in all probability.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  22:11, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
