• Delete. Per WP:NHOCKEY/LA, the Central Hockey League is one where a player has to satisfy NHOCKEY #3 (all-time top ten career scorer or First Team All-Star) to get a Wikipedia article, not one where he's entitled to have one the moment he skates onto the ice, but this article neither claims nor sources any indication that Pierce clears that bar.

Kept by way of no consensus in 2006; it's high time to revisit. Plenty of the delete votes in that argument were well-argued. I'm not sure the keeps hold up as well - many were based on Alexa rank, or information from the site itself.

What we don't have is independent sources substantially about the topic, in either English or Arabic (although I admit I'm searching Arabic by translation). We can't redirect to Remal IT, because that's a redlink. There's nowhere else I can think of to redirect this to. Without independent sources, we can't retain this article. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 23:22, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Moral breakdown[edit]

Moral breakdown (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

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

Article seems to be a POV coatrack for editors to point to societal changes as "moral breakdown" of the society, with the online sources not generally using that term (and those that do, like philforhumanity.com, not being reliable sources.) Google Scholar uses of the term "moral breakdown" are generally addressing an event for an individual, not a society, or are discussing the analysis of morals. Non-scholar invocations that I am finding are using it as a term of POV attack on a society and are not an analysis of what constitutes one in a way that would contribute to notability as a topic.

Do any of the sources used actually reference "moral decay", or will moving it still leave it the same sort of POV original research spectacle that it is now? --Nat Gertler (talk) 22:28, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Google Books results for moral decline and Google Books results for moral decay seem almost equally populated, which is to say, both of them have been widely discussed since the middle of the 20th Century. Anarchangel (talk) 23:23, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The article should of course be rewritten at some point, but it is a valid topic for Wikipedia. I would prefer to it remaining in mainspace. If the consensus becomes that the current article should be hidden in some way, I would like to exhort the closer and voters to take all available steps to prioritize the process of its rebirth. Anarchangel (talk) 23:30, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would rewrite the lede sentence as:

"Moral decay is a value judgement about society as a whole, that sees a degradation or loss of moral values."

The article gets bogged down around the part where it tries to distinguish the correctness of a judgement of moral decay and the incorrectness of a moral panic. Ideally, we need to be saying that they both are ethical assessments, without regard to being correct or not, and that is something that moral panic also fails to do. Anarchangel (talk) 23:45, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Davis (juggler) had an act where he would say he was juggling George Washington's ax... over the years they had merely replaced the handle. And the blade. But it occupied the same space as George Washington's ax.

That sounds to me like what you're proposing - an article with a different title, and different content. At which point, it is not this article. It may be a worthwhile one, but we need not save this one for it. --Nat Gertler (talk) 01:59, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It may be impractical, but it is in every other way the best solution and what should happen, and this title should link to the new article. Which isn't to say that what you propose is not true; they will doubtless both have the same end result, seeing as WP is unplanned and voluntary.

Index of Pakistan-related articles[edit]

Index of Pakistan-related articles (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

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

An alphabetical list of Pakistan-related articles. This might have made very good sense in the earliest days of wikipedia, but it's difficult to see why we should continue to keep it around. It is not complete: with links to 1,500 articles, it covers only about 6% of the approximately 24,000 articles currently tracked by Wikipedia:WikiProject Pakistan. And the articles included are not in any way representative as a selection of "important" topics (something that's anyway done by Outline of Pakistan) – there are no entries for either the current president Arif Alvi or for his predecessor Mamnoon Hussain, there are no entries for big cities like Gujranwala or Mansehra, or for the country's 3rd and 4th most spoken languages (Sindhi and Saraiki).

This index is so incomplete that the harm it does in misleading readers far outweighs any conceivable benefit it might still provide. But even if it were to be replaced with a fully up-to-date list, the result would not be desirable: the complete article would be around half a megabyte big – even though that's still below the hard technical limit on article size, it exceeds the recommended upper bounds several times over.

If someone needs this list for any use at all, it should be moved into the project space. And if the article's title is deemed to be an eligible search term, then it could be turned into a redirect to either Outline of Pakistan or to Category:Pakistan. – Uanfala (talk) 20:59, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

DELETE: I was going to try to breathe some life into this page but after reflection believer it should be deleted. The subject is a minor political player who never held elective officer. The page is stagnant ands there is little chance that it would every seriously be updated. I do not believe it fits the criteria for notability under the Wikipedia policy. At best it should be merged with another site. I was told by another editor that this is the second time that this site has been nominated. The last time was in May. Thoughts?

• Comment this is a "political" nomination (not in the party sense). The nominator has failed to edit war ([1], [2], [3], [4]) the article to their preferred version and is now aiming to delete it since they have failed to get their way. This nom would seem, therefore, a candidate for being speedily kept under criterion #2, per nominations that are clearly an attempt to end an editing dispute through deletion, where dispute resolution is a more appropriate course. (And possibly under #1 also: The nominator...fails to advance any argument for deletion or redirection—perhaps only proposing an alternative action such as moving or merging) User:Boardwalknw8 is also an WP:SPA for this topic ([5]) and should declare their conflict of interest, if they have one. ——SN54129 20:12, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete not enough indepth coverage to establish notability, it is just passing checks of existence.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:05, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - I’m normally pretty sceptical of porn articles because they send to fall victim to link spam from adult industry blogs (many of which are unreliable or are just interviews), this one does seem to fit within the GNG. The subject is covered in mainstream publications like the New York Times and the Daily Beast and many of these sources cover her in significant levels of detail. This might be the rare porn star that has solid coverage from WP:RS. Michepman (talk) 19:56, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep That is a very wide and diverse collection of sources there and there is more. I just cannot see how it is case for delete in any scenario. scope_creep^Talk 10:09, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete – Does not meet GNG, or at least, I can't find WP:THREE sources. The New York Times link [7] is just a director listing saying she was in Superbad; that's trivial, not GNG. The Daily Beast links don't count for notability because she's a writer for the Daily Beast. Articles written by her, and articles written about her by her co-workers, are not independent and thus don't count for notability. The Daily Dot is an interview transcript; also not independent (those are the subject's words, not the journalist's). AVN and other industry coverage is also not independent and doesn't meet WP:AUD. I'm not seeing any sources that meet GNG, or anything else supporting NAUTHOR or NACTOR. – Levivich 03:38, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Audience or WP:AUD under WP:ORG is not a restriction on the notability of people nor a determination of a source's reliability. Morbidthoughts (talk) 07:18, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - throwing out the Daily Beast articles that's written by her, she still passes the GNG. The Daily Dot article includes a biographical paragraph about her in the journalist's voice prefacing the interview. MSN Australia and The Independent wrote about Snow and one of her articles here. [8][9]. Actually her articles are frequently cited by reliable sources satisfying WP:JOURNALIST.[10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Morbidthoughts (talk) 06:30, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Non-trivial mention in the New York Times, establishing notability: [17] (This is different than the other NYT link Levivich links to above) Samboy (talk) 20:37, 12 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment The articles about her do not meet GNG. She hardly receives significant coverage, for instance, in the NYT article referenced by Samboy and I agree with Levivich on other sources. The only thing giving me pause is Morbid's claim that she qualifies under NJORUNALIST. I think there's a reasonable case to be made there though some of the sources are better (The Week) than others (NY Post). Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 19:12, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  I agree that none of the many sources linked in this article satisfy GNG because they're either brief mentions, not independent, or they're quoting her work but not talking about her as a person. I also agree that a case can be made that the subject meets NJOURNALIST. If I believed that meeting an SNG without meeting GNG was sufficient to keep an article, then I'd say "keep, meets NJOURNALIST", but because I feel that an article that meets an SNG but doesn't meet GNG should be deleted, I'm staying with my delete !vote. – Levivich 19:28, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:AUTHOR and WP:GNG. For someone with such a prolific publication history (12 series and tons of short stories), I honestly tried my hardest to look for information about her on Japanese websites, but Google doesn't turn up a lot of searches and there are no independent sources that confirm how notable she is (except for this BuzzFeed list).

While the family have individual members that are notable, the family unit is not.

This would be more sensible as a category: "Smith Family"; or as a list, "List of Smith Family members" - but NOT a stand alone article.

Similarly, this family unit SHOULD include ALL family members, ex wives, grandfathers etc. - at present the correct title for this article would be "Family members of Will Smiths current spousal-family" Chaosdruid (talk) 16:37, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

These appear to fail Wikipedia:Notability (events)#Inclusion criteria. All of the cited coverage appears to be either self-published or routine. There does not seem to be an indication that these individual instances have had a lasting effect, nor that they meet the general notability guideline. Furthermore, they offer the reader nothing other than further data, something Wikipedia is not for than the key information at the main article. The formula is: copy the key dates, theme and attendees from the website. It appears to be an indiscriminate collection of data, something Wikipedia isn't for. SITH (talk) 15:39, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Considering the articles largely need to be expanded to provide more detail about what happened at these individual meetings, I think it may be premature to delete these articles. The meetings are significant as they are the ICMWP is the largest (and perhaps only) international organization of Communist Parties throughout the world. The meetings themselves are mentioned in numerous secondary and primary sources online (specifically Greek, Chinese, and Portuguese publications). "Furthermore, they offer the reader nothing other than further data, something Wikipedia is not for than the key information at the main article." I don't disagree that there is a formula for creating these articles, at present I am the only one who is working on this project so I simply have not had the time to expand the articles to include more relevant information.

The result was No consensus but discuss merging/disambiguation-fication or rewrites. This deletion nomination was started due to a concern that the article in its current form is conflating disparate concepts in a way prohibited by WP:SYNTH and that each of the concerns has a page already. There are about 9 keep arguments (I've chosen to ignore "weakish" adjectives), 1 split (+1 which favours either keep or split), 1 delete (the nom) and 1 merge. Normally this would be enough for a keep but from reading the arguments it appears a substantial amount of keep arguments do not address the WP:SYNTH concerns at all ... and as a concern grounded in fundamental policy, one ought to address it.

Some people however do address it by presenting sources, but from the follow up discussion - especially from Levivich's extensive rebuttal on the one side and Slatersteven's on the other side - it's not clear that a consensus has materialized that the presented sources actually address the WP:SYNTH/redundancy problems due to e.g concerns that most sources only address specific versions which already have articles. On the other hand, there seems to be a consensus developing that a plain deletion is not the ideal way to resolve the issue, especially as the nominator has considered withdrawing. I also see the procedural points raised at the end but a 4-5 year old prior AFD is not necessarily a strong concern.

Overall, it does not seem that we have a consensus for deletion but also not a consensus for unqualified keeping without some serious work on the article, and while one might declare this a consensus for a merge/split combination, I don't think it is clear enough to call it the agreed-upon outcome of the discussion. So this is a no consensus, default to keep, but both further discussion of rewrites/merges/dsiambiguifications are possible on the talk page or bold action at editorial discretion, subject to the normal policies or guidelines that govern such things.

No-go area[edit]

No-go area (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

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

This article should be deleted because the topic "no-go area" is not a notable topic. Reliable sources do not discuss "no go areas", per se. Rather, there are different kinds of "no-go areas": military exclusion zones, LGBT-free zones, ghettos, and so on. But it doesn't appear any RS covers all of these disparate things as one category called "no go zone". The lead of the article shows this: it provides a definition that is actually the synthesis of three separate examples. The sources discussed in the prior 2015 AfD are also examples of particular kinds of no-go areas (to which the label "no go area" is applied), but not of a category that includes military exclusionary zones, legally-enforced exclusionary zones, de-facto political exclusionary zones, high-crime areas, etc. As a result of there not being any secondary sources defining the category, the article is (and basically always has been) a collection of WP:SYNTH. And, of course, it's constantly the subject of edit wars–repeated page protection is having no effect. This article should be deleted, and the content spun off or merged into other articles about more-specific zones, like military exclusion zone, etc. – Levivich 16:32, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keepish Its a real thing (And yes there are sources that talk about NO go areas), but the article is a bit of a POV mess in which various agendas are clashing. Rather then delete I think there needs to be an RFC about what the article is about, and enforce that ridgedly.Slatersteven (talk) 16:41, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  Slatersteven, can you link to some examples of RS that define a "no go area" generally (as opposed to a specific kind of exclusionary area that they label a "no go area")? – Levivich 16:59, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  I can give you a dictionary definition [[18]], that is enough to tell me this may be a real thing.Slatersteven (talk) 17:02, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  Respectfully, I think "it's a real thing" (which was the basis for many keep votes in the last AfD) is missing the point. Yes, lots of dictionaries have an entry for "no go area", but we're an encyclopedia and we don't have a stand-alone entry for every word or phrase in the dictionary. Here's an obligatory link to WP:NOTDICTIONARY :-) I'm not finding any non-dictionary sources that discuss "no go areas" as a broad topic. In fact, the academic sources I see all use the phrase in different ways–different from each other, different from the dictionary definition. Here are some examples: "no-go area" meaning politically taboo, "no-go area" meaning segregating schools, "no-go area" meaning unpopular practice. It's like having an article called "Bad" about all the things that people call "bad'. "No-go area" is a phrase in use in English, but not an academic or notable topic in and of itself. – Levivich 17:11, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That then means there is a topic, that is discussed in academia (which I think was my basic point, there is a subject here). So all this says is re theme (at best), not delete.Slatersteven (talk) 17:16, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep We have many topics that have contested/controversial definitions. We have many articles that are subject to disputes. These are not reasons to delete. The nom appears to want a definitive definition but the real world is messier. The term 'no-go area' is widely used throughout society from politicians to pundits to police etc.. the number of sources in the article clearly demonstrate notability. The nom's requirement for academic notability is not a reason to delete, and I find it extremely hard to believe there are not academic papers given how widely used and contested this term is politics. One doesn't need to have definitive definitions for a wikipedia article there are multiple POVs is how Wikipedia works. Anyway clearly passes GNG. -- GreenC 18:33, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  To clarify, the basis of my nomination isn't the lack of academic vs non-academic sources; it's that the topic violates WP:SYNTH policy because there are no RSes that treat the topic as a whole–there are only RSes that discuss particular, specific usages of the term, and those usages differ, and should be treated in separate articles, rather than bundled together, because the bundling is SYNTH. I find it extremely hard to believe there are not academic papers given how widely used and contested this term is politics Do you have any examples of any non-dictionary RS (academic or otherwise) that talks about how The term 'no-go area' is widely used throughout society from politicians to pundits to police? (As opposed to an RS that talks about just one of those usages.) I've looked and I haven't found anything, but I may have missed it. Because if it's editors who are taking a source about a politician's usage here, and a pundit's usage there, and stringing them together into one article, that's WP:SYNTH. – Levivich 18:43, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sure there are articles that discuss it more broadly such as [19][20][21]. There are so many articles on this topic it would be odd for Wikipedia not to have an article on such a widely reported and known topic. This Georgetown U Masters Thesis contains some interesting sources and discussions.[22] There are 20 pages of RS in the bibliography to draw from, plus the excellent overview and history of the term that could be incorporated via extracting RS. Our article might be better situated about the purported phenomenon of Muslim enclaves in Europe and USA (contextualized as part of Islamaphobia and conservative politics), beginning when Daniel Pipes coined the term in 2006, with the other uses redirected to other articles like military exclusion zones. I don't think AfD is the right place to decide though. Even if we conclude the academic sources reject no-go zones as an Islamaphobic myth [23] it still warrants an article to say as much. The term 'no-go area' is widely used throughout society is plainly evidence in the amount of sourcing, or for example the title of the SPLC article "'No-Go Zones': The Myth That Just Won't Quit".[24] or the article "How The ‘No-Go Zones’ Myth Traveled From The Anti-Muslim Fringe To The Mouths Of GOP Politicians". [25] It has also been discussed in books [26]. Google "no go zone" with "daniel pipes" and the types of RS sources for refactoring the article into proper context will start appearing. -- GreenC 20:16, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the sources, this exactly illustrates my point. All of those sources are about Muslim no-go zones. That is a totally notable topic, and I would be all for Muslim no-go zone sourced to those excellent sources. But No-go area is not, and does not purport to be, about Muslim no-go zones, it's about all "no go areas". And that term, "no go area", is used by RSes to apply to things other than Muslim no-go zones, such as areas of high crime, or political taboos, or segregated schools, etc., per the above sources. And so, to you, "no go area' means "Muslim no-go zone"; to someone else (dictionaries), it means high-crime areas; to someone else it's an analogy for a taboo, and so on. If we made the article about Muslim no-go zones, it should be moved to that title. If we made the article about Muslim no-go zones and other uses of the word, we are engaging in SYNTH. In either case, there shouldn't be an article about "no go areas" generally, because we only have RSes about specific uses of that term, and not the general use. Muslim no-go zone is an example of such a specific use. – Levivich 20:35, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I understand what your saying though the solution of breaking it up is also problematic. The Muslim zone could and should be due to its nature, but the rest there is overlap of type (criminal and military in Ireland), and I think we loose something by scattering them around when they share common terminology. There isn't really a SYNTH problem in practice it's more of a limitation of Wikipedia in dealing with closely related topics, lumpers vs spliters. If there was a glaring OR problem that would be different but there are no controversial OR conclusions being made by housing like-named and like-topic things together, we often do this, and SYNTH is not explicit about topic-level clumping being a problem (unless a case can be made for why it is, not merely citing rules but specific to the subject matter). -- GreenC 01:17, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep or Split: I understand the accusation of WP:SYNTH, but it feels like a stretch to apply it to a whole topic; I'm not clear what conclusion is being reached that sources don't support and various lists may have trouble meeting this standard. Moreover, WP:Broad-concept articles are generally preferred to WP:Broad-concept disambiguations. However, there does seem to be merit in the argument that the term no-go area is poorly defined; based on the lead (which has ((lead extra info)) issues), there does seem to be distinct types of zones that may be best served with separate articles. —Ost (talk) 23:48, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge - This article has a serious scope problem. What can be included here? What is the very definition of the topic? We have some imaginary stuff, some politically polarized stuff, some alleged stuff, and some apparently real stuff. The sourcing? How do you source such a poorly-defined topic? I say, merge it into the dozen articles listed in "See also", something has to be a fit somewhere. Perhaps we would not be here if the topic could be defined or the article scope could be determined, but the time for that was before/during the last edit-war. Elizium23 (talk) 00:29, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep but trim - as it is the article has a lot of coatracking going on with adding places that aren't actual no-go zones like Sweden, Poland, France and so on. // Liftarn (talk) 07:53, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Per WP:NOTDIC, keep as a disambiguation page and split the content into military exclusion zones, LGBT-free zones, ghettos, muslim no-go-zones conspiracy theory. Visite fortuitement prolongée (talk) 13:07, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Transform No-go area into a redirect to No-go zone, which is already a disambiguation page. Visite fortuitement prolongée (talk) 21:20, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep It is obviously a "real thing" and is amply sourced. WP:Preserve, WP:Not paper. WP:Before. The issues that are listed are reasons and issues to improve the article, not DELETE it.

Fundamentally, the reasons to KEEP are the same as they were in the first Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/No-go area nomination.7&6=thirteen (☎) 17:39, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep – as User:7&6=thirteen says, it's clearly a real topic. The article can and should discuss the different definitions, and probably reorganized so it's not merely a list of places that have at some point been called "no-go area". The assertion that reliable sources do not cover no-go areas per se is false. There may or may not be a source discussing the fluid definition of the term, but there are certainly sources that talk about no-go areas. In regards to the recent phenomenon in Sweden for example, there was so much coverage and controversy that Snopes saw fit to check it out. Yes, the article can be split into different types of no-go zones, but that doesn't mean it should be deleted in its current form. If someone wants to create more specific articles, they are welcome to do so. —Ynhockey ^(Talk) 20:38, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Valid broad concept article, although scope would benefit from clarification. This recent book (No Go World: How Fear Is Redrawing Our Maps and Infecting Our Politics, University of California Press 2019) might help with sourcing the article, as would this paper about alleged no-go areas in Germany. This book discusses no-go areas in Northern Ireland, starting on page 177. I don't see a reason to split discussion of different types/examples of no-go zones (eg No-go zones in Northern Ireland, Muslim no-go zone claims, no go zones in various countries that can arise because of civil war, insurgency, etc.) into separate articles except for space reasons. Where no go zones exist they are variations on the same theme, places where the authorities cannot or will not access. I do think that there should be a move, No-go area -> No-go zone and No-go zone -> No-go zone (disambiguation) per COMMONNAME. buidhe 07:04, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I suggest that this article might better be organized around "Types" of "no go" exclusions. If we want to have one based on specific locales, that could be part of a "History" section. I think that would address some of the issues at this 2nd AFD discussion.

This would solve the problems listed as purported justification for deletion.7&6=thirteen (☎) 14:25, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Nom comment: After reading the above !votes, I'm now 100% convinced that no-go area should be turned into a disambiguation page.
  • Slatersteven's example RS defines "no go area" as a high-crime area that people avoid [27]
  • GreenC's example RSes are about "Muslim no-go zones" [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35]
  • 7&6=thirteen's example RSes define "no go zone" as war zones, "Muslim no-go zones", racially segregated high-crime areas, areas infected by the Ebola virus, and Sensitive urban zones in France [36].
  • Ynhockey's example RS is about high-crime areas avoided by police (which the source says don't actually exist, at least in Sweden) [37]
  • Buidhe's example RSes are about war zones [38], "areas dominated by neo-Nazis" in Germany [39], and urban areas in Northern Ireland where state security forces were unable to operate between 1969–1972 [40].
  • My example RSes use the term "no go area" to describe segregated schools, political taboos, and unpopular practices.
  • Liftarn says "trim... places that aren't actual no-go zones" but doesn't provide any RS to tell us what is and what is not an "actual no-go zone"
  • I think the premise of my nomination has been proven: no RS discusses all of these things in one article or book; rather, every RS discusses a different type of no-go area. Because no RS combines them, for Wikipedia to combine them would be SYNTH. We would be stringing together different things–like "Muslim no-go zones", neo-Nazi "no-go zones" in Germany, Sensitive urban zones in France, war zones in the developing world, high-crime areas, segregated areas, and saying they are related, when NO RS says these things are related.
  • Ost316 points to WP:Broad-concept articles, which "no go area" would seem to be, except that we have no RS about the broad concept. The examples given in WP:Broad-concept articles are articles like History of France and Supreme court. You'll find RSes talking about the History of France, generally, and comparing different nations' supreme courts, but we don't have an RS that talks about war zones AND high-crime areas AND high-Nazi areas in Germany AND loyalist enclaves in Northern Ireland AND political taboos, etc. etc. We don't have an RS that makes that connection, so it's inappropriate for us to make that connection.
  • WP:Broad-concept articles has a really great example of how to test this, using the "expert" test:

    • There are some common tests that can be used to determine whether an article can potentially be considered a broad concept article. One of these is "expert" test: could a person reasonably represent themselves as an expert in [name of page], without having to be an expert in multiple fields of knowledge (i.e. without having degrees from different departments in the typical university)? For example, although there are many species of tuna that are called "bluefin tuna" an icthyologist could be an expert in "bluefin tuna" without needing to specify a particular species. Compare that to a person claiming to be a "Mercury" expert, or a "battery" expert. The expert on "Mercury" would need to have both Roman mythology and astronomy in his knowledge base, along with chemistry. The expert on "battery" would need both chemical engineering and legal training, as well as some military history and (depending how significant the subtopic was considered) baseball.

  • "No go area" is exactly like "Mercury" and "battery", both of which are disambiguation pages. We don't have a single article that talks about Mercury the Greek god, mercury the element, and Mercury the planet. We don't have a single article that discusses battery the energy source, battery the crime, and battery the group of artillery, all in one article. Those are disparate things that have a common name, and so are "no-go areas". It's unlikely a single person would be an expert in Muslim no-go zones, Northern Ireland no-go zones, high crime areas, war zones in the developing world, political taboos, the rise of neo-Nazis in Germany, and so on.
  • If there are no objections – particularly from the split/merge !voters Ost316, Elizium23, and Visite fortuitement prolongée – I'm happy to withdraw this nom and pursue dabbing-and-splitting the article on the talk page. Thanks to everyone for their feedback. – Levivich 17:28, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep George Hammer III is the Chief Content Officer of IBM. He is responsible for the content operations of a global organization with over 350,000 employees (2018) and operating revenue of 55.4 billion dollars (2019). That seems quite notable to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.251.187.170 (talk) 16:06, 11 December 2019 (UTC) — 208.251.187.170 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. .[reply]

Which implies he has a job and is wealthy, not that he is notable. Praxidicae (talk) 16:57, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep George Hammer III is a marketer, and entrepreneur. Him having been invited to appear on tv twice (Cheddar live) discussing his leadership on a documentary film about climate change which has won numerous awards, and on CNBC re: the exclusive CMO growth council sets him apart from the standard person looking for fame that submits to wikipedia. Additionally, AdWeek recognizing him as an innovator in the field of content marketing (TOP 11 in 2019) is an achievement that very few can ascribe to themselves. If one google's George Hammer, all the entries on page 1 are of IBM's GH, not of the GH that exists on wikipedia as George Hammer. As such, it would make sense to have a page on Wikipedia that details a person's life that most people would encounter on the internet if searched for by their given name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Djtake5 (talk • contribs) 18:41, 11 December 2019 (UTC) — Djtake5 (talk • contribs) is a confirmed sock puppet of George Hammer 3 (talk • contribs).

• Delete. Per nom. No good-quality RS with SIGCOV on him; mostly mentions in low-grade trade-sites (given his role, there are lots of trade-sites that would give him coverage to win business off him); feels like his WP article would be the most important "plank" in his notability, whereas it should be the other way around. The clear WP:PROMO, and clear WP:UPE aspect to this BLP is also very distasteful (e.g. his "editors" have inserted every possible scrap of RS into this BLP).

• Delete This article is using primary sources (such as the US census). This is a violation of the very way Wikipedia is supposed to exist. Wikipedia is not a place to publish ones person primary research. It is a way to publish things that have been covered in secondary sources. Wikipedia is not supposed to be sourced to priary sources.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:08, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, because we do not publish original research. There's magazines and online bulletin boards for that stuff. Bearian (talk) 20:55, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete She does not appear to meet WP:CREATIVE, WP:GNG or any other notability guidelines - searching Newspapers.com shows no results at all (even with name variants). The Harold Lloyd Encyclopedia seems to list her as a cast member of the films named, which does not match what the contemporary directories say, and doesn't help to establish notability. It's possible that someone might research and write about her in the future, but at present there is no coverage in secondary sources apart from The Harold Lloyd Encyclopedia, which is not enough by itself. RebeccaGreen (talk) 10:38, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - After an in-depth search on her name and variations thereof, I cannot find anything else other than the Harold Lloyd Encyclopedia to establish notability, no news mentions from the time period, or film history articles. Maybe mention her on the film pages where she was the editor and there is a citation to back it up, if that seems relevant (?) Netherzone (talk) 17:37, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is this fictional weapon salvagable, so that it can pass WP:NFICTION or another GNG related policy? There is a section about some recent experimental US weapon but the connection to this is rather WP:OR ish... but since weapons are 'cool', maybe this could be rewritten to be about that new gadget with a section about inspiration from this fictional concept? But I don't see very good sources to help... _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:12, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Can this be salvaged either by improving description of real world concepts or literary ones? Or should be just redirect this to Weapons in science fiction (or maybe a disambig or sorts given the concept of Plasma cutting and other concepts mentioned in the article)? (Also note the prior AfD from 2015 was 'delete', and this recreated article is hardly an improvement)_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:08, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy keep. This is not the same article that was deleted in 2015. The "first" AfD was for another deleted article at this title; it states that a different article in a similar scope was then moved to this title (see the history, especially the move diff [41]; this article has a long history dating back to 2004). Also, AfD is not cleanup: it's not clear why this article should be deleted, and outstanding maintenance tags do not alone prompt deletion. It looks like the nominator has not completed WP:BEFORE, so speedy keep until/unless a more thorough rationale is presented. ComplexRational (talk) 16:01, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge text to Weapons_in_science_fiction#Plasma_weaponry. The article can be kept only if completely rewritten to reflect the actual subject rather than fiction (see for example, [42]). My very best wishes (talk) 21:24, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Weapons_in_science_fiction#Plasma_weaponry as a plausible search term. Nothing should be merged, however, as none of the content here is sourced at all, which makes it seem to be WP:OR. As mentioned, the article could likely be restored if rewritten to be about the real-life concept, but until that is done, the article space can serve as a redirect.

• Comment - I found a reliable source with a Google search in no time at all.[43] Gary Reilly Productions was very well known in the '80s and '90s, mainly due to the success of Hey Dad..!. There was some more recent coverage surrounding the trial of the star of that program in 2014. --AussieLegend (✉) 05:07, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• • @AussieLegend: Just for clarity, the link of a 'reliable source' is to a Screen Australia listing of productions by this company. How does that qualify as making the production company notable? On that basis wouldn't every single TV production company in the world have a claim to being in Wikipedia? You might be correct but my understanding of WP:CREATIVE is that significantly more is required? And I also don't understand how being incidentally in the news (not substantial coverage) because of the trial of a lead actor in the series Hey Dad..! satisfies the requirements for notability for the production company? Again, I also found this reference you have mentioned, and others, but in my opinion they are not substantial reliable sources as required by WP:NOTE. I am aware of your experience here so I'm just seeking clarity so I understand the guidelines better. Cabrils (talk) 00:00, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • You said that you could not find any reliable sources. I was merely commenting that I found one very quickly. That said, GRP was notable in the 1980s when most of its activities occurred. Unfortunately, that was pre-Internet so you won't find a lot of online sources today. --AussieLegend (✉) 05:37, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete I cannot find anything but very minor and essentially routine coverage, ie, it verfiably existed. At least one of its productions, Hey Dad..!, was very notable but notability is not inherited. Aoziwe (talk) 13:48, 12 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
