• Delete - A movie with only graphical pornography will never pass in WP:NFILM, except with a notorious prize like as best movie or with a characteristic that is the difference of the hundreds of scenes recorded annually, as for example the pioneer in a video format or form of distribution, etc.Guilherme Burn (talk) 00:51, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. This film's only claim of notability per WP:NFILM is "The film has received a major award for excellence in some aspect of filmmaking." An award win in a niche category needs acknowledgement by reliable sources independent of the award giver for it to be considered major. Lacking non-trivial reliable source coverage, it fails the notability test. • Gene93k (talk) 19:19, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. As I wrote in my original nomination, "Fails NFILM and the GNG, and violates WP:NOTDIR. "Best Solo Release" (aka something like "Outstanding Achievement in Masturbation") falls well below the NFILM standard of "a major award for excellence in some aspect of filmmaking". No independent sourcing, reliable or otherwise. Just a WP:INDISCRIMINATE collection of castlists. The article just bristles with unacceptable content -- original research inaccurately conflating three different video series with similar titles into a single line, cut-and-pasted promotional copy, wretched sourcing. It also achieves new depths of porn related stupidity: among its listed notable female performers are male professional poker player Kenna James and former major league baseball player Randy Moore, who is apparently masturbating posthumously. There's no reason to salvage anything from this mess"; the article was cleaned up a bit, but what remains demonstrates the lack of reliable source coverage. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo).

• Keep It is sourced from independent media, I am not sure if that's enough if someone just contributed once because Wikipedia is available to public and no one is bound to edit again and again, I think it's wrong if we base our deletions on this scenario, I may be wrong please guide. I read in terms and services and policies that Wikipedia is a result of contributions from ordinary people like us. This is being used in 35 countries (as per the claim and references), so I think not bad in keeping. I also found these 2 references from The Entrepreneur 1|https://www.entrepreneur.com/video/284675 and Fortune 2|http://fortune.com/2016/08/11/term-sheet-thursday-august-11/ The Mirror and A magazine, I am now updating the article.

• Weak delete I think this article from the Irish Times is a significant writeup, but its the only one I've been able to find, and its from 2016.

This doesn't seem to be a notable band. The article still mentions a planned EP release and tour in 2009 and the only significant edit since then has been to change the name of a member. There's only one reference not published by the band or a record label and that's a radio interview which is not an independent source for the content for which it's used here.

• Delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:BAND. Appears to tick every box on the lists at WP:YAMB and WP:GARAGEBAND – they don't appear to have made any more records after the 2009 EP mentioned in the article. Their page at the Purevolume site [1] (note: this website is shutting down on June 30) mentions a vocalist, Chase Novick, who isn't in the Wikipedia article. I can't be 100% certain these are the same people, of course, but given that they have the same distinctive names as the band members and are based in the same city, it appears founder Maloney and singer Novick still occasionally make music at home and upload their songs to Soundcloud [2] and [3] – Novick also now appears to work in sales as his full-time job, according to his LinkedIn profile [4]. Given that Novick started university in 2010, the year after the band's final EP, it seems likely that this was a high school band which ended when the various members went to university or got jobs, and never had more than a couple of singles/EPs out on non-notable record labels. The EP's producer has a better claim to notability than this band [5]. Richard3120 (talk) 16:56, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment 147 acres is larger than most houses, If size determined notability, and 147 acres were too small, then we'd have to delete at least 61 towns or cities, including Vatican City. And if coverage by Google news were a requirement for notability, then probably half of Wikipedia ought to be deleted. Vexations (talk) 00:34, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

My point was that coverage is that external coverage is extremely limited and it's not big enough as a land trust to be notable on it's own for that. I don't see exactly how it is notable. ShimonChai (talk) 02:50, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The nomination for deletion is based on two claims regarding notability. A) that area matters (too small) and B) that the number of google news results determines notability (only three). Both are false. If you want to argue that the article should be deleted because the information cannot be verified or because it lack significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, then you can try that. Don't bring up reasons to delete an article that have already been solidly rejected by consensus, i.e. size/area and the number of google hits. Vexations (talk) 12:27, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Denied DirectX games are very common, however DirectX 12 is a special and sensitive topic, because it only supports exactly one operating system, namely Windows 10. Mainly for this reason, but also because the documentation of the DirectX 12 interface does not excite developers very much, there are very few games opting for DirectX 12 compared to the whole market, even if they are being developed right now. DirectX 12 would solve a main issue - using multiple CPU cores for the graphical interface - but as it's not suitable for the mass market with all the Linux/Mac/Windows 7/8/8.1 Users, most developers opt for DirectX 11 even nowadays. You can google discussions on games like Planet Coaster and DirectX 12, and see that people are really upset about not using the latest tech, however the producers have good reason to dismiss DX12. Microsoft tried to position DirectX 12 as a good reason for gamers to switch to Windows 10. It seems that history will show that DirectX 12 as a closed standard will remain a footnote of a relatively tiny spot in the huge gaming market because of this business behaviour. There are some alternatives to DX12 as close-to-hardware interfaces, mainly AMD's Vulkan, but this fight is not over and there is definitely not a standard in sight. Nowadays computers still get faster, but the industry is working mainly on energy efficiency, raw GPU power and adding cores to the CPU. Still, the frequency-per-core does not grow at the moment (4GHz is the spot for several years now). Because of this, it is actually very interesting to see what hardware interface will make it's stance for games, especially those where a lot of small entities have to be rendered individually - because with normal DirectX (11) this is done by 1 thread only. Finally, there are also several gaming sites that list DirectX 12 games as they remain special, e.g. pcgameshardware.de, tomshardware.com. Googling "List of DirectX 12 games" will also show that this topic is very much of interest to techies. Conclusion: DirectX 12 is not DirectX. It really needs it own list of supported games, now and for documentation.NiksNx (talk) 12:29, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You may have a point [6]. I nominated the list along with the other DirectX lists, but this may be a special case. TarkusAB^talk 23:50, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid I have to strongly disagree: The above information is perhaps relevant to the DirectX article (possibly others) and I recommend that the new editor propose inclusion of the details there (if they are not present already), via the talk page. But even if those details have industry relevance, creating a page for purposes of documentation of software product incompatibility couldn't be more blatantly or paradigmatically a violation of WP:WWIN. Such a list may be appropriate for pcgameshardware.de or tomshardware.com, but such exhaustive documentation lists are not appropriate for inclusion on the encyclopedia--although, again, the underlying industry and technical issues may be germane for inclusion in an article or two, in prose form. I think your original nomination was spot on, though I think we should also help NiksNx find their way to an article where the information they provide above may be useful.

• Delete per WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:CROSSCAT. This is but one of many technical properties of video games and is better served as a category. DX12 may be exclusive to Windows 10 and few games support it, but this was true for pretty much every DX version. In the long term, this list is no different to its siblings. The arguments above is suitable material (if soruced) for the main article, but not justification for a list. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 10:57, 23 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Here're the articles that I found from his fb profile: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=385850574819050&set=a.579749752095797.1073741845.100001823337636&type=3&theater — Preceding unsigned comment added by 111.92.2.37 (talk) 19:24, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep I am from Kerala too. He is quite famous here for being a young entrepreneur. I have also found another online reference article from Hindu which was published on the year of 2012.

Read it here : http://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/Thiruvananthapuram/prolific-teenage-web-designer/article3604966.ece

It clearly says that he started web designing from the age of 13 and have made over 50 websites by the age of 15, which is something special for someone at that age. He also got 29k followers on his facebook profile too. So I think this wiki page should not be deleted and this article deserves to be on wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ndpillai (talk • contribs) 20:58, 18 June 2018 (UTC) — Ndpillai (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

There are lots of articles about him in our State(Kerala) Newspapers. I am mentioning some of them below :

• https://i.imgur.com/2vnvKAG.png - Janmabhumi Newspaper
• https://i.imgur.com/YVEq8r1.png - Malayala Manorama Newspaper

• https://i.imgur.com/rpKYwXP.png - Mathrubhumi Newspaper - Nagaram
• http://www.thehindu.com/Apps-by-19-year-old-hit-bullseye - The Hindu Newspaper

The above newspaper articles are from Kerala newspapers such as Malayala Manorama, Mathrubhumi, Janmabhumi which don't have any online versions but I can surely say that this guy is famous in our place Kerala. Those are from the top newspapers in Kerala. You can see the full list of Malayalam(Kerala) Newspapers here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Malayalam-language_newspapers.

From those Malayalam articles, the main points are :

1. He started doing web designing works from the age of 13 and have made about 50 websites by the age of 15. ^[1]
2. He makes about 5 Lakhs(A half million) per month at the age of 19 via web designing and his other businesses. ^[2]
3. He received a platinum award for excellence in web designing from World Wide Web Awards Organization From USA.^[3]
4. At the age of 19, he developed some viral facebook apps which have been used by 10 lakh(1 Million) people within a week. ^[4]

So from all those points, it is very clear that he deserves to be on the wiki. If there are any Malayalees, please comment on this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ndpillai (talk • contribs) 09:26, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. @GSS: @Bonadea: @Editor General of Wiki: @RegentsPark: @Ndpillai: I realize that a lot of of bad articles about web developers are submitteto Wikipedia and then rejected. I think that this article should be kept because it is backed up by multiple reliable sources. The Hindu is a national newspaper and a newspaper of record. It is a reliable source and cannot be dismissed as local. Of the press clippings referred to above by Ndpillai, non-English sources are as good as English-language ones. Offline references (such as clippings that someone scalled) are as good as online ones. They all appear to be reliable sources. One of the Malayalam-language newspapers, Malayala Manorama, is the fourth-most-popular newspaper in India with circulation of 2,388,886 and an average issue readership of more than 8.8 million.

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

This is a small local party of little notability outside of the context of Merton Council local elections. It stands candidates only in one ward and has never formed the council administration. The number of sources for the party are small and most of the content on this article is self-published. Therefore, it is better to merge this article into a new section within Merton London Borough Council elections and redirect the page to the section there. This would also enable similar redirect links to be established to the page for Longthornton and Tamworth Residents Association (currently without a page), which held seats in the council in the 1980s and 1990s, and for which there are even fewer sources.

Delete. A quick Google search reveals a clear lack of coverage on this group in books and news. Most of the information about them seems to come from the group themselves. In my opinion, this article fails the most basic of notability tests. ToastButterToast (talk) 18:15, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep they have had electoral success and have been around for decades. It seems absurd to merge or delete a political party which is notable enough for its electoral success and of course its relevence in politics in Merton. Minor parties don't get much coverage usually, however the parties' success shows it is relevant and not dependent on coverage; journalists and academics rarely write about minor parties - this shouldn't be a reason to delete. There is no reason to delete or merge the page; it is a residents association with election success and relevence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Greenleader(2) (talk • contribs) 18:53, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This argument can be summed up as "Ignore Wikipedia:Notability". Not being covered by journalists and academics is exactly why the article is being nominated for deletion. ToastButterToast (talk) 18:59, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment No, the fact they are mentioned in the Wimbledon guardian a number of times in different articles about the election (written about just as much as the other major parties in some articles) shows that they have been given coverage and therefore notability; my point is there is obviously not a huge amount of coverage for the party, but that would obviously be the case for a minor party. I don't see a basis for deletion though; they are mentioned in articles about the local elections a number of times, have had electoral success (have 3 seats) and ultimately have had an impact on politics in Merton. Articles shouldn't be deleted just because academics haven't written about them; I agree that there are some minor parties and that shouldn't be on Wikipedia but this party shouldn't be deleted from wiki; they have enough notability and significance to have their own page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Greenleader(2) (talk • contribs) 19:12, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Greenleader(2), would you consider my suggestion of a merge? I agree the party is significant enough to be on Wikipedia because it is significant in the context of Merton council elections- I just don't think it's significant enough to have its own page. Hence why I've suggested merging the page into a new section of Merton local elections. It wouldn't take the MPWRA off Wikipedia; it would just make them reflect their notability. Again, the upshot of such a merge is that we can add a place for Longthornton & Tamworth Residents Association, which - as far as electoral results are concerned - has as much right to have its own page as MPWRA. I envisage all of the MPWRA article (except 'aims') would be copied over to the new section.

Insofar as Wimbledon Guardian articles are concerned, obviously the party has some coverage. But again, usually the party doesn't get more than a sentence in an article (which isn't really significant coverage) and again this is only significance only in the context of Merton council elections. Almost all of the available sources for the party are self-published. Matt 190417 (talk) 19:55, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It should really be testimony to the party's lack of significance (insofar as its own Wikipedia page is concerned) that the page was created four years ago, and until I started to add sources at the end of last month, there was barely anything in the article, and virtually all of it from the party itself. Matt 190417 (talk) 20:06, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I agree. Therefore I reluctantly support a Merge; it would allow for a section on the other residents association too. Perhaps there could be another infobox on the merged page within the section of the residents association outlining the party (a bit like the youth wing of the alliance party with their own section and infobox within the page on the party as a whole). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Greenleader(2) (talk • contribs) 13:44, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - this local residents' group that has successfully put forward some election candidates for Merton London Borough Council, unsurprisingly does not meet WP:GNG. It is too local for inclusion in Wikipedia and I don't think it should be merged into the Borough Council article. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:28, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Cwmhiraeth I think this is too ungenerous. We have well-established and fairly well-written summaries of London local elections, and indeed of Merton local elections (I am in the process of rewriting the Merton local elections articles as a pet project, but the summaries existed before my additions, especially for 2010 onwards - anything from 1984 to 2006 is mostly my work). The MPWRA is included in infobox summaries and table results of these articles, e.g. at the page Merton London Borough Council election, 2006. The MPWRA is also linked into articles on the borough and constituency's political history. It would not enrich the encyclopaedia, and probably only leave unanswered questions and confusion, if a local party which is mentioned so often across so many articles on Merton elections did not have its own section anywhere clearly explaining what the party is. While I am aware of the limitations presented by WP:EVENT, it is also to be said that the party's gain in a by-election in 1989 hung the Council for a year (which I have had to go back and explain in Merton local elections page by a note. The party has also consistently held seats in the ward since 1990 (for 28 years), and is therefore not of merely transitory notability. Thus, the MPWRA is notable enough to be included in the context of local elections in Merton, which is why I would like to ask further why you would not be willing to support a merge.

• Delete or Merge - Fails WP:GNG. It is very local to have its own page. Also, I do not see extraordinary election results here. If they are hoping for it, then it will fall under WP:TOOSOON.Goharshady (talk) 13:59, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Fails GNG. In my experience, and conceding odd exceptions, the community usually accepts as notable any political parties, including micro parties, that are on a national ballot, or that have gained electoral success above the local level (i.e. at a state or provincial level). I am not seeing that here. -Ad Orientem (talk) 00:10, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable monument to a relatively unknown Russian artist. No significant sources to be found. Even ru.wiki does not have an article about Nechitailo. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 17:12, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, though probably move to Vasiliy Nechitailo or a spelling variation, and refocus about the notable artist. The existence of a monument about them is an indication of their importance; the monument can be mentioned in article about the artist. Given cyrillic lettering and spelling variations possible, I bet that, contrary to the nomination, there is an article about the artist in ru.wiki. But even if not, the artist is notable. Here is one solid source about the artist, about a retrospective show and with biographical info. --Doncram (talk) 20:58, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment The existence of a monument does not guarantee notability beyond his own hometown. Lots of "local heroes" are memorialized in their hometowns, while unknown beyond. If reliable sources existed for the artist, I suspect that ru.wiki would have an article about him, at which point we could translate that article to English as a redirect target for this monument. But ru.wiki does not have such an article (although it does have an article about this monument, with poor sourcing and a redlink to the artist's name, since that article has been deleted from ru.wiki). (See ru:Памятник Нечитайло and ru:Нечитайло, Василий Кириллович.)

By the exhibition in Minnesota about him, he is notable by wp:ARTIST clause 4b.

He is noted as a Soviet Socialist realist artist, including "heroic propaganda of the Stalinist era – huge paintings like Glory to the Great Stalin (1950) by Yury Kugagh, Vasily Nechitailo and Victor Tsyplakov" (quoted from Google book here, just a passing mention but I interpret this to be an indication of importance. An "indication" of significance is not a "guarantee", of course I never said that. --Doncram (talk) 21:40, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Another alternative to deletion is to merge into a List of monuments and memorials in Taganrog (currently a redlink) or List of monuments and memorials in Rostov Oblast (currently a redlink), which would fit into Category:Lists of monuments and memorials. Such a list could be standalone or could be included into Taganrog or Rostov Oblast articles. It could include other landmarks perhaps. This would handle multiple AFDs already started and help to head off more. See also ongoing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alley of Immortality (Taganrog) (a memorial) and ongoing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Admiralty Sloboda (a "landmark" not a monument necessarily) and deletion nominator for all of these, User:WikiDan61 may have targeted more. There exists Commons categories for "Category:Monuments and memorials in Rostov Oblast" and "Category:Monuments and memorials in Taganrog" suggesting more possibly marginal articles might exist or be created in the future, which could be addressed by a list-article instead. WikiDan61, could you please not nominate more for deletion by separate AFDs, but rather instead participate in making one list-article, say? Or handle these in some other productive discussion elsewhere (please invite me). --Doncram (talk) 16:30, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Followup: I did start that list-article about monuments in Taganrog (located on the Sea of Azov, part of the Black Sea), but this Vasili Nechitailo monument is located in Azov (located on the Don River which runs into the Sea of Azov?) or in Salsk (located on the Sredny Yegorlyk River which is a Don River tributary), so is not very close. --Doncram (talk) 22:30, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I would agree with the merge proposal as proposed above. List of monuments and memorials in Taganrog is a suitable option. Lorstaking (talk) 11:21, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep and move to Vasiliy Nechitailo. Notable artist who deserves a standalone article. Lorstaking (talk) 11:36, 21 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Agreed: Nechitailo deserves an article. But he doesn't have one yet, so there is no target for a merge. If someone is willing to write the article on Nechitailo, we can then proceed with a merge. In the meantime, I suggest draftifying the present article, so that the history can be preserved for a future merge to the as-yet-uncreated article.

Saraiki Castes[edit]

In Pakistani English the word Tribe is used only with barbarians, while the word caste is used with clans. Wikipedia does not use Pakistani English so WP:COMMONNAME was invoked (I assume) to create the article List of Saraiki tribes. The creator of this article i.e. Saraiki Castes has duplicated the material already present, and added his OR to create a new article. Even though unintentional, this is still a mistake, so the article should be deleted. I tagged it for CSD but another user, who was not aware of the misunderstanding removed the CSD, so I have headed to XFD. 2Joules (talk) 16:22, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your coordination. Actuallay the page Saraiki tribe does not fulfill the requirement due to uncatagorization and mixing of different ethnicities of saraiki people. In my page Saraiki castes, I catagorized all saraiki speaking different ethnical groups with their sub castes. You can see the page. This page is not in final condition. It will take so much time to complete it with details of each saraiki speaking ethnicity and castes. But the page saraiki tribes, is uncomplete and does not fulfill the purpose. It is also a factor that their is no tribal system in sariki area but there is caste system so the page title is also wrong which should be deleted. Engr.ismailbhutta (talk) 16:47, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete It doesn't look like there is any such thing as a "Saraiki Caste". --regentspark (comment) 18:10, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Doesn't that simply equate to Saraiki-speaking social groups? If that's the case, this information is encyclopedic and would be welcome in mainspace, if it were sourced. – Uanfala (talk) 22:38, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete after checking for the need of any content merge. There are no "Saraiki castes" unless someone is able to prove (based on RS) that caste boundaries overlap with language boundaries; which however is not the case AFAIK. Similarly, there are no "Hindko castes". Of course, an article "Castes in Punjab" would stand, Punjab being a culturally and ethnically distinct geographic area.

I am also trying to see whether any rename would work, but it does not seem likely - there are no clear, objective criteria of listing individual castes in the article, so it fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE. — kashmīrī ^TALK 08:25, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The clear, objective criterion for inclusion is whether a social group (or a section of it) are speakers of Saraiki. That doesn't necessarily imply that the entirety of the group are speakers of Saraiki. – Uanfala (talk) 09:12, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Userfy or rename. First off, in this part of the world it is common for the literature on a given language to list the social groups that make up the population of speakers, so the content of this article definitely is encyclopedic. Its author initially added this content to Saraiki language, and created a separate article only after their addition was reverted. I don't think it ought to have been revereted, at least not for the reasons stated. The real problem with this content is that it's entirely unsourced. Because of that I would prefer to see it moved into the creator's userspace, where they will be able to work on it. And if we don't want to move articles out of the mainspace simply because they're unsourced, then this ought to be renamed to List of Saraiki-speaking social groups (to avoid any further misunderstandings), and possibly merged with List of Saraiki tribes (itself awkwardly named and entirely unsourced). Noting also the exsitence of Saraiki people: though of all these articles this is the one whose existence I'm finding it most difficult to justify. – Uanfala (talk) 09:08, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  Uanfala, I don't think this should be moved to the creator's userspace unless they can show that sources do exist for the stuff they've listed in the article and unless they express the desire to work on the article in userspace. (Apparently, they want it deleted though their style of writing is not exactly easy to follow.)--regentspark (comment) 13:09, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete This is entirely unsourced. In fact, even the existence of specific subdivisions within the Saraiki population is unsupported since the actual Saraiki people article is threadbare.

• Delete and do not redirect. I rewrote this page after removing copyvio a couple of years ago, but didn't look nearly closely enough at the sources, which have now rightly been removed (I'm sorry for that oversight). If anyone can find solid academic ethnological sources that describe the myths and beliefs of the people of the Likouala region, and include mention or description of this particular myth, then that would be grounds for including some account of it in, say, a List of imaginary animals. Until then, the only option for a topic with no sources is deletion. Redirecting it to List of cryptids is not a good plan, as (a) it's unsourced and (b) this – if it is anything – is not some (supposedly) "hidden" relic of the age of the dinosaurs, but a mythological or folkloric belief of some African people (some of whom may have no conception of what a dinosaur might be).

Deprodder's claim that he's notable for getting quoted in the media a lot is also irrelevant — people get over our notability criteria by being the subject of media coverage, and not by getting asked to soundbite their opinions on other subjects.

Comment I tried changing the search to "Sugar Creek," which gave lots of hits to other places and things besides the brewery. I then tried "Sugar Creek Brewing," which expanded the hits for the brewery, but still solely in local media outlets and to a couple of passing mentions in blogs. If the "keep" !voters would provide links to other than local sources (and put them in the article), that would be a great help in evaluating the AFD.

• Comment: the book was published in 2006, but it's basically a print version of a television documentary made in 2001, also written and directed by David Nolan in his capacity as a regional TV producer.

• Delete: It isn't a concern that references have become dead links, however those appear to have been in the nature of routine announcements - insufficient for current WP:NCORP standards. My searches are finding predominantly more of the same: brief notices of the company's product announcements and ownership changes. There is also this 2016 HollandMountain blog interview with the company CEO, but it is merely a platform piece on the company proposition. Nor does the IDC ranking at no. 74 in their sector show inherent notability. Overall, I see this as failing WP:CORPDEPTH.

I think this might be a case of WP:TOOSOON. As the article doesn't have any in-line references, I will treat the external links as the sources. 1. Is a Facebook page. Confers no notability. 2. Is an interview-style piece which asks him about certain forms of technology, not specifically his company. 3. Doesn't appear to mention him except in the sidebar with passing references. 4. Is a business directory entry, confers no notability. 5. Is about his company receiving an award and mentions him only in the context of his company. 6. I'm having trouble with Google Translate so I can't read this source but the name suggests that it is an award for his company.

I think there's a much better chance of this guy's company passing WP:NCORP than there is for the man himself to pass WP:BUSINESSPERSONOUTCOME or WP:ANYBIO. StraussInTheHouse (talk) 10:41, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete with a recommendation that the creator draft an article about the company instead. Preferably through AfC so that it can be reviewed, if only to avoid the hassle of another potential deletion discussion if it turns out the company is not notable. ƒirefly ( t · c · who? ) 11:01, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: The article does no more than document a company going about its business, and most of the sources are routine start-up announcements. The two Amit Chowdhry items come closest to providing editorial depth, but again these are by a start-up specialist. I don't see sufficient coverage on either Zferral or the Ambassador platform to meet WP:CORPDEPTH or WP:GNG. AllyD (talk) 08:21, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

club is playing in a level 12 league (Dorset Senior League) - not high enough to be notable. ⇒ Chris0282 (talk) 06:50, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - regarding teams, WP:NSPORTS specifically does not cover teams, suggesting WP:GNG is their guideline. WP:FOOTYN is a project essay on the issue - it merely suggests non-national teams must meet broader notability requirements (usually meaning GNG).

There certainly may well not be sufficient sourcing to make the article notable, but football team ranking (in and of itself) is not a direct bar to notability. Nosebagbear (talk) 09:25, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
