We normally consider bishops of major denominations organized in a territorial manner to be notable. I'm bringing this here to help resolve whether this applies only to the bishop in charge of a diocese, or, as here, an auxiliary bishop, who assists the Diocesan Bishop. The basis for the presumption that bishops are notable was based on the argument of their influence in the area, analogous to mayors of cities, etc. I helped establish this presumption about 12 years ago; I don't think I had auxiliary or assistant bishops in mind at the time, but I think I would be reluctant to make the same presumption for them. However, either conclusion would be reasonable. (For perspective, the Roman catholic church in the US has at the moment 156 Diocesan bishops and 76 auxiliary bishops as well as 94 retired diocesan bishops and 43 retired auxiliary bishops.)[1] DGG ( talk ) 00:48, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Fr. Romero's selection as bishop was announced earlier today; so far it's been covered by the secular press (Newsday, Europa Press) and the independent religious press (CNA/ACI Prensa, ZENIT), as well as his diocesan newspaper (Long Island Catholic) and the Catholic News Service, which is owned by the USCCB. Cheers, gnu57 03:13, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Opposed What is going on here!! As I stated on Fr. Romero's talk page, I have created the last 60+ pages for new Bishops/Auxiliary Bishops with references and linked them to the Archdioceses\Dioceses pages. The Historical list of the Catholic bishops of the United States will prove that. I've never encountered any problems like this before. In fact, last week I created pages for Michael A. Saporito, Gregory J. Studerus, and Ramon Bejarano, they were named as Auxiliaries and their pages have been linked to the Wikidata projects, yet they're not up for deletion!
Roberto221 (talk) 10:57, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Roberto, I've seen other articles also on auxiliary bishops, and I'm not certain what to do about them so I am bringing the test AfD to see what others think. DGG ( talk ) 18:06, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. If appointment announcements are considered in RS coverage, then I would say every aux is notable, because they generally receive the same kind of attention upon the occasion of their appointment. However, after that point they disappear into a black hole. Nobody covers their installation if they have a public one (I'm pretty sure they all do) and they seldom do anything newsworthy unlike the ordinary. So I would say their notability hinges on that initial flurry of coverage. If we are willing to accept that, then yes, otherwise, no. Elizium23 (talk) 11:29, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Only if they've actually accomplished something noteworthy. Historically, some have been college presidents, vicar-generals, or coadjutors, but barring some recognized activity, only became notable when they came into their own. Most are largely mid-level managers. Manannan67 (talk) 18:55, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Something to think about. When is it appropriate to create the pages: days, weeks, months, years after consecration/installation? Are we regressing to days of missing/old information? Roberto221 (talk) 19:27, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to me that if notability is established by the announcement of their appointment, then it is appropriate to create the article at that time. Otherwise, no clue. Elizium23 (talk) 19:29, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I should note that there will be some with existing articles (such as Robert Barron) when nominated, obviously those should be retained. There is also more than a decent chance (I'll try to add some % in the next day or so, I think under 50% for USA) that will later be named the Ordinary of a diocese. --Dcheney (talk) 20:01, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Insider information, huh? I'll make the changes when announced. Thanks..Roberto221 (talk) 21:20, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Robert Barron has been a bishop for five years. Before that, he was quite famous for his "Word on Fire" and "Catholicism" series, so naturally he had an article. Nothing about his status is changing and David is not necessarily privy to anything else. Elizium23 (talk) 21:26, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, to be clear, the reference to their own diocese was meant for Auxiliary Bishops in general, not the random example I chose. --Dcheney (talk) 04:14, 5 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I had a chance to run some rough stats. From 1900 to 1999, there were 541 Auxiliary Bishops named to US dioceses. Of those, at least 338 were later named to their own diocese (62%). --Dcheney (talk) 05:14, 5 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep weather any auxiliary bishop is notable is not the question here. We clearly have enough sources on Fernandez to justify having an article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:36, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps that is the question here. After all, DGG said this is a test case. What if we began nominating many other aux bishops, would all survive? Elizium23 (talk) 21:37, 4 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
In general, if you search the next day for any newly named Auxiliary Bishop worldwide, you will find at least a handful of articles in various regular news outlets. I think the better question is how many regular news articles do you find 5 years after their appointment. --Dcheney (talk) 04:14, 5 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You might say that auxiliary bishops could be covered by WP:BLP1E - the only thing in their lives that garners coverage is their appointment! Elizium23 (talk) 04:23, 5 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think we "clearly have enough sources" at all. The sourcing, in both quality and quantity, falls far below our standards. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 02:01, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sources are not the problem here, you can always add the Vatican Press Releases plus local newspapers/Television as well as the Archdiocese/Diocese web sites. I just don't "oversource" the same materiel. And those standards are what? Roberto221 (talk) 21:15, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- We have articles on most suffragan bishops in the Anglican Church, so that I do not see why not Auxiliary bishops in the Catholic Church. Strictly he will not be a bishop until formally consecrated as such, due about 5 weeks hence, but it is pointless to delete an article which would need to be re-created next month. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:33, 8 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - DGG is right to bring this here for discussion. I think Elizium23 has hit it on the head. The only thing that garners temporary coverage is their appointment and as Roscelese noted, this is not widespread coverage to our standards. The appointment of an Archbishop is one thing. That garners real coverage, not just the Catholic Review or the Archdioceses' own newspaper. This seems a WP:BLP1E in my view. Also, the reference to the Anglican Church is not an equivalent hierarchy. Bodding (talk) 19:07, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Well if you want to go that far, what about state legislators, and congressional representatives? Majority of their pages only have a bio, and career. They're not mentioned unless they sponsor/introduce some "newsworthy" legislation that garners in the press. Roberto221 (talk) 21:10, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:SIGCOV. The sources are too closely related to the subject. The very basic criteria for GNG is not met here.4meter4 (talk) 01:05, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The first press release comes from: A)the Vatican, B)the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, C)the diocese which they're appointed to, D)the diocese which they're from, E)local media. Which source makes it not "too closely related"? Roberto221 (talk) 21:10, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
A, B, C, and D are all publications generated by the Catholic Church itself and are therefore not independent of the subject. At the time I reviewed the article there were no sources from local media. There still aren't.4meter4 (talk) 18:41, 22 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - he's nominated to be the auxiliary bishop of the Roman Catholic church in all of Long Island, NY, a very large diocese, and will be consecrated within a month. FWIW, I am Episcopalian. Bearian (talk) 01:06, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -- we need to start regarding church related publications the same as we do any other. Keeping this article on the basis of the church related publications could help set establish this. Also, Kingiron suggests that keeping this article will allow the website to treat the denominations equally, and I agree.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 05:37, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment to closer. I don't see how an article based entirely on sources produced by the Catholic Church could meet the independent sourcing criteria for WP:N. This would be like allowing business publications by a corporation to source an article on that corporation. It just doesn't make sense.4meter4 (talk) 18:44, 22 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, are publications by the Catholic Church reliable? Maybe they are, but they are definitely not independent sources in this situation, and therefore do not help establish notability for this person. Devonian Wombat (talk) 21:05, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I guess when a highly prized rookie makes it to the "Big Leagues", the sports leagues, teams, and sports sites are also not independent sources? Roberto221 (talk) 00:09, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Just to be clear, for the article in question there are 6 current sources: two are from Newsday, a general purpose newspaper in Long Island; one from the USCCB, one from the Archdiocese, one from notimerica (portal of Europa Press), and one from Diario de Cádiz. Of those, only 2 are Catholic sources. --Dcheney (talk) 00:25, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I think there's enough coverage here for WP:GNG and not just an WP:OUTCOMES-based keep based on his new (or soon to be) bishop title. But also, re the WP:BLP1E argument raised by Elizium23: As former head of UTPL he arguably also passes WP:PROF#C6, and (if one can find it amid the new-bishop news coverage) there's also news coverage of his role there, for instance [2][3][4][5]. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:37, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
David Eppstein, Okay, so keep for the specific case, but what about the general case? This is also a test balloon for Catholic auxiliaries in general. Not many of them will pass WP:PROF. Elizium23 (talk) 07:40, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe, but they're all going to be prominent churchmen who have held other important positions before being raised to bishop. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:07, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comments: Comments made by David Eppstein are persuasive. It should be noted that the sourcing examples provided are all from the same source (La Hora), and while possibly acceptable for content, only count as one towards advancing notability. In cases of auxiliary or assistant bishops in general there needs to be more than a general presumption of notability for inclusion. "Prominent churchmen who have held other important positions" would need significant coverage in reliable sources if notability is not clear according to WP:PROF, especially when offering a subject holds are held a "Prestigious position". WP:NBISHOP is certainly "just an essay" but the criteria there (WikiProject Catholicism Notability guide) is relevant just as with WP:CLERGY. Otr500 (talk) 09:00, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
They're mostly only in La Hora because after finding one story in that newspaper I searched for more in the same site to find stories from other parts of his time at UTPL. There are similar stories in other sources e.g. [6][7].
Keep This is a WP:BASIC pass, maybe not by much, because despite the quantity of sources provided in this AFD few qualify as independent SIGCOV, but there is enough. This is also a borderline WP:NPROF pass as mentioned above. I sympathize with the concerns raised by Elizium23 above regarding the larger issues at play here. However, as they say in legal-speak, this case is a poor vehicle for modifying precedent. Suggest that the WP:BLP1E concern be raised for this area at an appropriate central discussion forum instead.

Delete. Lake Worth Beach FL is not large enough to confer an automatic notability freebie on all of its mayors just for existing as mayors, but the article is not sourced well enough to demonstrate that she would pass the actual notability bar for mayors. The nationalized coverage that she has just makes her a WP:BLP1E, and has not yet risen to the level of making her nationally or internationally notable enough to pass the ten year test for enduring significance.

That NFOOTY argues for keeping tens of thousands of articles on one-game male players who could not pass GNG in a million years but tries to suggest that top-tier women players aren't notable isn't a problem with the articles or the topics, it's a problem with Wikipedia:WikiProject Football that needs correcting urgently.

(This was prodded a month ago by SounderBruce and deprodded by the article creator.) – Arms & Hearts (talk) 20:24, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Neither being a school board trustee nor being an as yet unelected candidate in a state legislature election are notability claims that get a person into Wikipedia — a person passes our inclusion criteria for politicians by holding a notable political office, not just by running for one. But there's no credible claim of preexisting notability for other reasons independent of the candidacy, the amount of coverage shown here is not enough to make his candidacy markedly more special than everybody else's candidacies, and the article is written more like a campaign brochure than like a neutral or objective encyclopedia article. As always, no prejudice against recreation after election day if he wins, but nothing here is enough to already get him a Wikipedia article today. Bearcat (talk) 15:52, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Don't Delete Marshall is the founder of the controversial group, The Washington State Three Percenters; he is a staunch supporter of Matt Shea, who was involved a scandal; he is leading a grassroots movement to remove the State Attorney General Bob Ferguson from office; and he is running for State Representative.
Below is a list of articles where Marshall is discussed, and sometimes the topic of the article. These are all from all suitable, independent sources that I believe are sufficiently reliable for the purpose showing notability.
At least two (NPR and The Guardian) are discussed on Wikipedia’s Project Page. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Perennial_sources) The Guardian is considered reliable. NPR is generally considered reliable, although with the caveat that the discussions of its reliability are “dated.” Regardless, it seems the fact that NPR is writing about Matt Marshall supports claims that this is notable subject.
Other sources are not listed on the page, but obviously the list is not meant to be an all inclusive list.
The Olympian, The News Tribune and The Seattle Times all have Wikipedia pages and have been around since the 1800’s. The fact that they are writing about Marshall shows notability.
The other sources are mostly smaller papers, and one or two might not indicate notability, but there are a lot of them.
Political candidates are not exempted from having to pass WP:NPOL just because some campaign coverage exists — some campaign coverage always exists for every candidate in every election everywhere, because local media have a legal obligation to give coverage to all candidates in all elections in their coverage areas. So the key to exempting a political candidate from having to win the election first is not just to show that some campaign coverage exists, it's to show that his candidacy is so much more special than everybody else's candidacy that even if he died tomorrow and thus never accomplished anything else he would still pass the ten year test for enduring significance anyway. Keeping an article about every single person who ever ran for any political office in the world is not our job: we keep articles about holders of notable political offices, not unelected candidates for them, so candidates are not automatically exempted from having to win the election and thereby hold the office just because some campaign coverage exists.
People are also not notable just because their name gets mentioned in coverage of other things, nor are they notable just for leading recall campaigns or for supporting other people. Bearcat (talk) 23:30, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Bearcat (talk) Thank you for your feedback on this article. However, I think you misunderstood. I don’t find Marshall notable just because he is running for office. There are a lot of people running for office. I find Marshall notable because of his political activism. Five of the articles I found about Marshall don’t even mention that he is running for office.
I am not the only one to find Marshall notable. The Guardian wrote two articles (I said one earlier, but I found another) about Marshall almost a full year before he announced he was running for Washington State Congress. The Guardian is not some local newspaper. It is a 200-year old British newspaper. I would argue that if a prestigious foreign newspaper is writing multiple articles about a person, that is pretty notable.
Even the NPR article, which was written about a month after Marshall announce his campaign barely mentioned his run for office. (It is mentioned in paragraph 15 of the article.)
Keep or Redirect to Washington State Three Percenters. At this moment, the subject fails WP:NPOL. That said, it is hard to see how the subject does not pass WP:GNG with the combination of the NPR feature, international coverage of the movement in the Guardian and the local press (both of the subject's school board run and the subject's challenge to the Republican leader in the Washington State House of Representatives). Even if the consensus is that the subject is WP:TOOSOON, there is not question that the subject is associated with the Washington State Three Percenters and this page should redirect to the movement. --Enos733 (talk) 04:53, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Nothing in this article violates ANY policy or terms. This article contains factual information regarding a person of notoriety. There are people who support him and people who do not support him. Regardless of support, that reason alone does not constitute removing information about a person. The call to remove the information is simply a smear campaign by those who are opposed to this person referenced, and that in itself does NOT justify removal by Wikipedia's Terms or Policies. JamesQuayle3 (talk)
keep I find this article notable. Matt Marshall has begun making an impression in Washington State. People from all political beliefs are learning his name and what he stands for. This is an important figure to have accessible information to. The articla in noo way infringes on Wikipedia's policies of conduct. SteveTheScholar (talk)
Keep I find that this article follows guidelines on being notable. While some may argue in Privous comments like “article reads like a campaign brochure” or that the person this article is about is “neither being a school board trustee nor being an as yet unelected candidate in a state legislature election are notability claims that get a person into Wikipedia” these arguments are not sufficient to remove this article per WP:N As this article isn’t a advertisement, or a self promotion. And per WP:NTEMP states that notability isn’t temporary. And in the guidline per WP:N it dose not require the person to have held or is holding any type of office
Keep The article is well written, factual, informative, and within Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Matt Marshall is well known in Washington State for his exemplary military service, his political activities, and staunch support of individual rights. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bgbies (talk • contribs) 22:55, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge or Redirect to Washington State Three Percenters. Most of the coverage revolves around his association with the group he founded. The article would need serious work if kept and it seems there is a bit of REFBOMBing going on here. I think we should probably just redirect until the election; if he wins, we can recreate it. ~EDDY(talk/contribs)~ 23:44, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Weak DeleteWeak Keep or Redirect or Draftify: It seems a little bit WP:TOOSOON; after all, the subject has only had one significant role in a notable production. His notability profile does seem to be rising, however, so I wouldn't be averse to "draftifying" the article, if the consensus is to "delete". There are some sources out there which provide more than mere mentions, including a Deadline Hollywood article, and they put the subject on the verge of WP:GNG, in my opinion. I would point out, though, that I disagree with the implication by the nominator that the sources have to be solely about the subject in order to meet the notability standards. Another solution would be to "redirect" the article to All American (TV series) (again, provided that the consensus tends towards a "delete"). Dflaw4 (talk) 01:19, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Update: I have upgraded my vote to a "Weak Keep" because I just realised that WP:NACTOR wasn't brought up by the nominator as a contentious issue. The only issue brought up is that of sourcing, and I don't think that that is too big a problem. In addition, editors are actively improving the article. In the unlikely event that this AfD is closed as a "Delete", I still maintain that "Draftifying" or "Redirecting" is appropriate. Dflaw4 (talk) 03:32, 29 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as passes WP:BASIC with multiple reliable sources coverage such as The Republic, CW Atlanta, Decider, People Magazine, and others all in the article, so although it is early in his career he is notable and should be included in my view, Atlantic306 (talk)

This is just a flat-out mistake in compiling GNIS. The 1972 topo shows this as a very minor named hill, complete with elevation. Aerial photos show nothing to dispute this: there is just nothing at all around except a road which eventually passes the Camels Hump Reservoir a ways to the east.

"Place" usually means "ranch", and it appears to be the case here, though in the end I could not verify that the "place" existed at all.

Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival is a organisation which does Award function twice in a year.
It was earlier nominated for deletion due to lack of content but now it is well adequate with the content.
This page should be created on wikipedia to let others know that Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival is different from the official Dadasaheb Phalke Award which will help avoid major confusion. User:abhialmish —Preceding undated comment added 17:27, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Please see WP:DADASAHEB, excerpt: the Dadasaheb Phalke Award is a sub-award of the Indian government's National Film Awards. It is essentially a lifetime achievement award honouring a person's "outstanding contribution to the growth and development of Indian cinema". (Disclosure, I wrote this content.) There are a number of award mills that use Phalke's name to bestow awards. That doesn't mean they are notable. It's likely just a cash grab like most award mills, and in most cases, the media is actually confused by the Dada Saheb name, some outlets failing to distinguish between the knock-offs and the established award, and I think these mills count on that confusion. I highly recommend that anyone else voting see the write-up at WP:DADASAHEB. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:00, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. Given that the first AfD was 12 years ago (a lot has changed about our view of notability since then) and the second one had far smaller participation than this one, I didn't give much weight to, "we've already kept this twice" arguments. But, even with that, I still can't quite get to a consensus for deletion. Basically, the delete side is saying this is poorly sourced trivia/cruft, and the keep side says this is a useful navigation aide and the sourcing is sufficient to meet WP:NLIST. Some people suggested a merge, but others argued that you can't merge unsourced material. -- RoySmith(talk) 18:27, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
A completely reasonable redirect to Fictional location, proposed earlier by Hijiri88 was reverted by Andy Dingley. The content here is trivial and unverified, with the majority of entries having no independent notability and certainly no secondary sourcing. Drmies (talk) 14:47, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Possible sockpuppetry involved in this page's current status aside (who on earth is Hunter12396!?), this page is nothing but unsourced fancruft. In the previous AFD there were only four keep !votes, of which two were classic ILIKEIT and a third was HELIKESITANDIAGREE, which IMO is "No consensus" at best. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 15:15, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hijiri88, this is not the place for casting aspersions and making vague accusations of sockpuppeting. Either go to ANI with that, or drop it here. Do not make any such accusations, or you will be the one at ANI. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:29, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure if you were the one behind that super-suspicious account that kept reverting me, or if it was someone else, or if it was just some new user engaged in extremely questionable behaviour. The latter seems quite unlikely. Either way, I was not the one to bring up the possibility that you were the one who reverted my redirecting of the article, and I don't appreciate you choosing to go out of your way for the sole purpose of making this personal -- when a suspicious new account has been the article's sole defender for the better part of a year, that is very relevant when it comes to AFD. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 16:23, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
An AFD cannot, by definition, be a "unanimous Keep". If we threw out the weird ILIKEIT and HELIKESITANDIAGREE comments, it was at best 1 for deletion and 1 for keeping. Add me onto that pro-delete count (I was aware of the AFD at the time but stayed away because one of the ILIKEIT !voters was engaged in a harassment campaign against me at the time and I decided not to stoke the flames by chiming in) and that's 2-1 in favour of deletion/redirecting. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 16:23, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as per previous AfD. Also please refresh your familiarity with WP:LISTN and our accepted practice for notability of lists and particularly the sourcing requirements of bluelinks in list articles. No-one is against adding sources here, especially not for the entries which aren't linked. But this is no reason to delete the whole article. Nor is it an excuse, per WP:PRESERVE, for the immediate blanking of all the unlinked items. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:29, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Your arguments are a bit yawn-inducing, so I'll respond with an equally yawn-inducing truism: redirection is not deletion. Feel free to work on an actual article in your userspace. Drmies (talk) 15:51, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Bluelinks? There's only a dozen in there. PRESERVE is really just another excuse. If you want this preserved, do the work. Drmies (talk) 15:55, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - These kinds of lists are very ill-defined for inclusion criteria and full of trivial information. The potential to list fictional items is near infinite. If you reduce it to actual articles, then you're left with a tiny, pointless list. TTN (talk) 17:57, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"ill-defined for inclusion criteria "? "fictional counties" seems pretty clear to me. Which ones do you think are dubious? And why would such dubious entries (if they exist) affect the list overall?
"full of trivial information" Such as?
" If you reduce it to actual articles" So you're claiming that the county of Midsomer needs to go, because the article is on the TV series of Midsomer Murders instead? Do you doubt that Midsomer, a fictional county, is actually part of that? Andy Dingley (talk) 18:06, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
In terms of what is included in the article, there is no established threshold. Is it all fictional counties? Is it fictional counties mentioned in a reliable source? Is it fictional counties mentioned in a blue link series? Is it blue links only? In terms of fiction, blue links only seems to be the only objective criteria of importance. Otherwise, you have an unwieldy, near infinite list. Trivial information is that which does not fit an established inclusion threshold, so, in my opinion, most of this list. TTN (talk) 18:56, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Are you talking about inclusion criteria? (which are obvious) notability criteria? (which don't matter, that's fundamental for our list practice) or else verifiability? Now, yes, WP:V does require us to achieve verifiability for anything challenged (nothing here has been challenged, just a handwave to delete the whole list). But none of the entries here look particularly dubious or challengeable, nearly all are bluelinked to a fictional work (for which we've long accepted transitive sourcing on list articles) and there is no reason why the particular county has to itself be a bluelink. If sourcing presents itself, everyone would welcome that being added. If there are any which actually appear doubtful, then challenge them (still waiting...). Andy Dingley (talk) 20:20, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
We need to establish inclusion criteria before anything else can be discussed. Do you think that any county that appears in a blue link work on Wikipedia should be listed? I think that's way too broad, but it gives us a starting point for discussion. TTN (talk) 20:56, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP Eight blue link to actual articles, the other blue links just redirects. So its a valid list article, it aids in navigation. Any entry that is not notable enough to have its own article or a significant amount about it in another article, can be removed. DreamFocus 19:12, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Another laundry list of bare mentions, only a select few have articles (and their own notability is questionable). Ajf773 (talk) 20:18, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Merely containing a few blue links is not sufficient to "aid in navigation", needs to demonstrate that people need to navigate from one fictional county to another. We get it, authors, filmmakers, TV writers, playwrights, etc make fictional characters who have fictional jobs in fictional places including fictional towns, counties, and countries. But there's no relationship between these places nor coverage of the significance of fictional counties as a whole. Reywas92Talk 21:36, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and redirect to Fictional location, but just the handful of notable entries: Wessex, Barsetshire, Yoknapatawpha County and a few others, i.e. those that are the setting for multiple major works by important writers. There aren't enough of those for a standalone list IMO. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:45, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep We've already discussed this twice before and the result was Keep both times. Starting a third discussion is vexatious per WP:DELAFD, "It can be disruptive to repeatedly nominate a page in the hope of getting a different outcome." The suggested alternative of fictional location seems quite poor, having but one source and little content for such an ambitious scope. The page in question is better established, better sourced and better structured. If it works, don't fix it. Andrew🐉(talk) 10:17, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't work, so get rid of it. Seriously, Mallardshire? Clarityfiend (talk) 06:51, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
We've already discussed this twice before and the result was Keep both times The first result was more than a decade ago and the second needs to be disregarded as a "keep" result (as opposed to a "no consensus" result) because it was a 4-1 !vote-count and ... well, I was forced to stay away due to James500's harassment, Drmies apparently didn't know about it at the time (my feelings on these kinds of "articles" were picked up from him, not vice-versa, so he definitely would have supported deletion if he had been there), James500 hadn't "retired" in order to avoid a deletion TBAN yet, and one of the others just said he agreed with you. Even disregarding all the other factors, those variable factors reversed, it would have been at least 3-2 in favour of deletion, and you know that (despite WP:PNSD) if someone ignored a 3-2 vote-count favouring keep by refusing to simply count votes and closing as delete anyway, you would immediately file a DRV claiming either that a 3-2 majority means the result should be keep or that such a vote split should default to "no consensus". Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 13:18, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You are correct that the first AfD is no longer relevant. However, your suggestion that we should disregard the second AfD because, among other reasons, you did not participate... yeah, that's laughable. While I strongly disagree with Andrew's claim that this is discussion is vexatious -- more than enough time has elapsed since the lone still-relevant AfD -- we are not in the business of reinterpreting how prior discussions might have gone in a hypothetical scenario. The prior discussion is valid and not binding, and this discussion should have been opened before anyone tried to redirect the article. LEPRICAVARK (talk) 19:46, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I'm afraid I can see absolutely no reason to delete this article. It meets all the criteria for lists. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:05, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
What about all the reasons already given? The near-complete lack of sourcing? The fact that no reliable sources actually discuss the concept of "fictional counties"? The fact that such a concept doesn't actually exist, since "county" is a vague term used in a variety of different real-world countries to mean any number of types of administrative or other divisions? I've seen the Japanese word gun translated "county" and I'm sure there are plenty of Japanese fictional works that describe fictional gun, but they would not have anything in common with either the American or Brythono-Irish counties currently listed in the article. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 13:18, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Which are, strangely enough, called counties in English! I see no counties on the list that are not called counties in English. So your point seems utterly irrelevant, frankly. As to sourcing, published works are sources in their own right. We don't need another source to tell us that something is included in a published work. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:05, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Which are, strangely enough, called counties in English! I see no counties on the list that are not called counties in English. ...did you not understand my comment? My point was precisely that since just about everything can be called a county in English, the inclusion criteria are meaningless. (Also, per the recent edit history, the definition of "fictional" also seems to be in dispute, further undermining the inclusion criteria.) Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 15:20, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I did understand your comment, thank you for being patronising. My point is that while many things may be called a county in translation, this list only includes entities that are called counties in English. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:47, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - From the looks of it, this is intended to be a list of all fictional counties (?!), i.e. WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Definite WP:LISTN/WP:SALAT problems, given unclear inclusion criteria (unless it really is all). Not a source in the bunch, making it a fandom collection of trivia. Lists don't always have to include only notable examples, but most absolutely should, and there needs to be a good reason why we would include all of something (like those reasons in WP:CSC, but certainly not arbitrary whims of the editors absent any sourcing at all). — Rhododendritestalk \\ 14:50, 25 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Note One of the "keep" !voters has been engaging in pretty blatant counter-policy edit(-warr)ing on the article itself.[12][13] This is not an argument for deletion in itself, but it does gel with their apparent lack of understanding of policy demonstrated in their activity in this AFD. Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 00:05, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Definition of "fictional"?@Andy Dingley: You have insisted (in the edit summary of the second diff above) that an entry on a placeholder county name used in security simulations belongs on the list because it is "invented". This seems like a questionable inclusion criterion -- every other entry on the list appears to be a non-existent administrative region referred to as a "county" in a work of fiction. If the list has flimsy inclusion criteria like that it can include placeholder names used in real-world simulations, of entities referred to by the already-vague term "county", then that surely counts as an argument against the article itself being kept, as its inclusion criteria are so broad as to be meaningless, no?
Moreover, you argued in both the above edit summaries that it belongs in the list because it is "sourced", but hardly any of the other entries (most of which actually are about legit fictional locations!) are sourced -- are you saying that the entries that haven't been covered in reliable secondary sources should be removed?
Hijiri, I have asked you repeatedly to stop making personal comment on editors rather than on the article or the merits of the AfD. "your slimy indirect harassment". Your reply that to that was another sheer ad hominem.
As to the issue here, these are fictional counties, i.e. ones which have been invented for some creative reason, rather than based on concrete geography. We do not filter as to why they were invented. We have novels, TV series, and in two cases the military use of "Redland" vs. "Blueland", except at the county level.
Given your past 3RR blanking of the whole article here, last time you tried to delete it [14][15][16] you should avoid edit-warring deletions again. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:27, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
ANI As you have persisted in attacking other editors, rather than discussing the AfD, the inevitable AfD filing:
(1) I'm not going to respond to this repeated attempt to make this personal, except to acknowledge that it exists.
(2) That's ... not even the dictionary definition of fictional. If that is your criterion for inclusion, then the redirect should be restored or the article deleted, and everyone agreeing with you on this should be ashamed of themselves for such a blatant violation of our content policies.
(3) Yeah, I'm the one who's personalizing this... That's the ticket...
(4) Personalizing and overreacting. That's cool, I guess. You wanna focus on content?
Restore redirect- per Clarityfiend. The current content is indiscriminate fancruft and since there is virtually no sourced content there is nothing that can be merged anywhere. ReykYO! 10:02, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete / restore redirect. While I sympathise with AD's arguments, the sheer lack of third-party, independent sources for most of these makes this little more than an indscriminate list of possibles. While some of these locations might be article-worthy (e.g.), most of the others are of a pretty much use-once-and-discard variety. ——SN54129 12:31, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect in the light of the pre-existing, recent consensus to keep this article, it should not have been redirected without discussion and Andy was correct to restore the article. However, now that we are here, I'm afraid I don't see much that's worth keeping. This does not appear to be a notable topic. The fact that the vast majority of the listed counties are not independently notable does not help me to see why we need a list here. It's certainly not worth a drawn-out fight between established editors. LEPRICAVARK (talk) 19:53, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per our longstanding WP:LISTN guideline. Also Dream Focus points to the many blue links in the article which also supports the navigation aspect of LISTN. Previous AfDs on this list have resulted in keep both in 2007 and 2018, making this nomination somewhat vexatious. Lightburst (talk) 21:54, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect or even outright Delete. About the laziest, worthless, unsourced collection of cruft imaginable. That a few of the entries have enough level of detail to (possibly) justify standalone articles doesn't justify this list. --Calton | Talk 00:02, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep The Delete/Redirect arguments above are reasonable. However, it has been upheld fairly recently (in July 2018 — around the same time as the similar List of fictional towns and villages) without the need for trimming. In its current state, it is well-defined (see County), has enough significant and accurately evaluated entries, contains no original research, and is not wholly indiscriminate, unlike those that got deleted. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:39, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment58 11 sources. WP:Preserve. No compliance with WP:BeforeFictional locations is an overweaning category, and is not as well sourced as this article.

Merge prose to Lists of fictional locations because per WP:NOTESAL, this topic has not been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources. This is a critical foundation to make the topic remain in perpetuity. I have tried to research for such sources but have essentially found Faulkner's county, and to a lesser extent, Hardy's. The lead section should be merged to the aforementioned article (and more section headings and summary sections created for the other categories). I oppose deletion because if sources discussing this as a group or set do appear at some point, per WP:NOTESAL, those in these groups and sets can be complemented with individual items that have been noted in secondary sources.

Redirect or delete per above comments and nom. It doesn't meet LISTN, and it's indiscriminate cruft violating NOT.

Keep and neutralize. I fully agree with both of Guy's arguments. The article is mostly unsourced and has been significantly edited by a user that claims to be the subject himself. I moved it myself to draft space for improvement but it was moved back after Ferris1182 pointed out that his article had been in Wikipedia for more that 10 years (see here). I considered an AfD nomination myself, but a WP:BEFORE search revealed sufficient coverage by multiple reliable sources to meet WP:GNG. Most contents of the article need to be trimmed but the subject does seem to meet our notability guidelines.

The broader google search finds only a small amount of additional coverage of a handful of marketing deals. In sum English language searches do not uncover anything that satisfies WP:ORGDEPTH.

I don't think that this person is notable enough. She is the director of a school chain but notability is not inherited. Apart from a couple of press release style interviews there is nothing that makes her notable in any RS. The keep! argument that she has won Tamgha e Imtiaz is not valid as awards like this are awarded to a couple of hundred people each year. It is a simple state award for services. Without her position as director there is no mention of her independantly. She is mentioned as an educationalist but there is not a single paper in google scholar that she has authored.

I note related articles that could have been considered for a merge prior to nomination are Roots International Schools, Faisal Mushtaq, Roots Millennium Schools, Roots Ivy International University. Actually Riffat Mushtaq may be more notable for founding the Roots School System though it may be Khadija who has brought it to cover higher levels.

Comment Yes, I agree with Djm-leighpark and TJMSmith here, the award Tamgha-i-Imtiaz (Medal of Distinction) has great value and it was awarded to only 5 select few distinguished professors in 2011 including Khadija Mushtaq out of a total population of over 180 million people in Pakistan. This fact is verifiable on the list of awards shown on the major newspaper reference I added today for this award. Please let's not confuse this award with the 8 other military and civil awards that the President confers each year on Independence Day. We all know this is commonly done and is the norm all over the world. Besides this, Khadija Mushtaq was awarded two international awards – 'Yale Educator Award' in 2009 and the 'Best Councillor Award' by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 2010.

This is a dab page that lists some of the species whose systematic name has acuminatus as a species epithet.

Redirect Quoting Peter coxhead from the AfD linked above: It's as if we said that because there are organisms called "greenfinch", "green woodpecker", "green crayfish" and "green spider flower", we should have an article at "Green" that disambiguated them. Not a realistic search term, no functional relationship between species with this name, no encyclopedic use of this list. As with Tristis, redirecting this to an entry at List of Latin and Greek words commonly used in systematic names should do fine. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 19:56, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Dab pages listing scientific names are definitely useful for readers. — Sagotreespirit (talk) 22:32, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nom comment. I'd have thought redirecting to List of Latin and Greek words commonly used in systematic names would be obviously off the table: that list – which is already pretty big, and probably bigger than it needs to be – does not contain an entry for acuminatus, or any of the large number of similar shape-based epithets like acicularis or attenuatus. – Uanfala (talk) 01:55, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
What's the objection to adding a new entry? If nothing else, the number of entries at Acuminatus shows that it's a common species name. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 02:23, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It is a relatively common species epithet, but so are acicularis, attenuatus, and many more. Generally, I don't like the idea of adding a random entry into a monstrous list just so some dab page could be redirected instead of deleted, though if the people who look after that list are happy to integrate this and similar entries, then I won't get in the way. But even then, just look from the point of view of a reader. If this page is deleted, then anyone who searches for this term will see the search results (where all the articles with this as a species epithet are at the top of the list), and a prominent link pointing to the wiktionary entry, which has relevant information about the Latin word. If on the other hand this page is not deleted but kept as a redirect, then that reader will be cut off from the search results and just sent to a list item that provides a local copy of a dictionary definition. Which one is better? – Uanfala (talk) 03:15, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As someone who encounters taxonomic names regularly, I think it's useful to have a freestanding list of different organisms that share a specific name. A reader might well be familiar enough with a species to know the name, but hazy about the genus it belongs to—and as the list demonstrates, many genera can share the same descriptive name among their species. A Wiktionary entry will only tell you what the specific name means, unless you already know the generic name—so if you've forgotten it, you may as well not bother looking. You won't find it. This is a disambiguation page by another name, and would benefit from more information—for instance, grouping by taxonomic hierarchy, with common names and descriptions sufficient to help readers sort out what each entry refers to. I can't see any benefit to deleting it.
With respect to Elmidae's point, this isn't like listing "organisms with 'green' in the name". This is like listing "organisms with 'finch' in the name". Sure, most of them will be birds, unless there are some "finch plants"—and readers could easily be directed to a list of notable people named "Finch" with a hatnote. But different kinds of birds are called finches, not all of them closely related, and some of them have multiple names—so an article listing different "finch" names and identifying which each refers to would be useful to readers. This article lists mostly—perhaps entirely—plants, and unless you're a botanist, and probably a very good one, you won't be familiar with all of them, or be able to distinguish between them all based solely on their generic names. So I'd say it serves a very useful purpose, and would be much more useful if expanded along the lines that I suggested. P Aculeius (talk) 13:34, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The finches are not analogous at all: any one of the many different species involved can be called a "finch", whereas none of the species whose systematic name has "acuminatus" in it are normally called just that. "Acuminatus" here functions exactly like "Green" in the example quoted by Elmidae. Still, could it be that some reader might only remember that the species they're looking for has a name ending in "acuminatus"? Sure! But that's precisely what the search engine is there for. Having a page that blocks the search results and currently only lists half of the relevant species is worse than nothing. – Uanfala (talk) 14:07, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It's quite like the word "finch" in the sense that there are a limited number of things that could belong in this list, and all or nearly all of them belong to a particular category: taxonomic nomenclature. Lots of things can be acuminate, just as they can be green. But only a limited range of things is so named. It's not practical or useful to list everything that's called green in a single article; but it is practical and useful to list organisms formally named acuminatus. But I think the more important point is that the page doesn't so much "block search results" as it acts as a page that can collect relevant results in one place, rather than the user hoping to find all of the relevant search results in a linear fashion, and perhaps having to search—if, as you say, this article only lists half of the relevant species—fifty-eight separate articles (and that's assuming that they just happen to be the first fifty-eight results in a search) spread across six or ten pages of search results, and then wondering if still more searching is needed. If, as you say, this article is half the size it needs to be to include the relevant topics, then the solution is to find the others and add them to it, not to delete it. And obviously it would be more useful if the entries provided more information than "a species of tree", "a species of beetle". But again, there's a straightforward way of doing that: adding the relevant information—not deleting the page. P Aculeius (talk) 14:43, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This page does not serve to usefully disambiguate anything. Instead, it sends readers searching for a binomial name containing the specific epithet 'acuminatus' up a blind alley; they would, as has been suggested above, be better served by simply seeing these more numerous search results to appreciate the magnitude of their task. I fully agree, that 'acuminatus' is equivalent to looking up 'green' (see viridis) - or simply looking up the name 'John' to find the person you want. It is nothing whatsoever like looking up 'finch', which is mostly a discrete group worthy of separating. A random, unsorted list of a few species names which happen to be so named with that specific epithet because they have some acuminate (i.e. pointed) feature to them seems to serve no encyclopaedic purpose. Here are 278 plant species and subpecies with 'acuminatus' in them from the IPNI database, alone. That's a lot of 'Johns'. I would take a different view were we discussing a DAB page for a genus name, and not a species name, where there is a function served by listing similar genera (e.g. Prunella), but certainly not every vulgaris. A redirect to 'acuminate' would not serve a useful purpose, as it would actually prevent the broader Wikipedia search results being returned. Nick Moyes (talk) 00:44, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable company, tagged for three years for lack of notability. All of the sources are either to the companies web site or press releases, or simple unselective directories, such as its listing with the UK Financial Conduct Authority. I can find no significant coverage myself.
The current version reflects a recent revert I made after it was turned into promotional copy by apparent COI editor DarwinexLabs, but editors may want to review that unreverted copy to determine whether they believe it does pass muster (I don't want my revert to be the basis of deletion). TJRC (talk) 16:24, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe Wait - I can try to improve the article as I go along, you can decide to delete if after a while if it's still not worthwhile keeping it here. Basically, I am trying to avoid killing a project just because it's been slow lately, we can give it a little bit breathing space : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 17:11, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Just to be clear: I am not proposing that the article be deleted because editing on it has been slow. I am proposing that it be deleted because there is nothing notable about this company that merits its inclusion in Wikipedia under the project's notability guidelines and in particular those for corporations. Slow editing would not be a proper basis for deletion. In fact, if the corporation were in fact notable, but the state of the article didn't reflect that, that, too, would be an invalid basis for deletion. It's not about the condition of the article; if that were the case, the solution is to bring the article into shape, not to delete it. It's about the lack of notability of the subject of the article, which cannot be corrected by any amount of editing. TJRC (talk) 18:09, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, it is a small company, I can try to find out notable developments, you can decide to delete if after a while it's still not notable. Basically, I am trying to avoid killing a small company just because it's been less notable lately, we can give it a little bit breathing space : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 19:30, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good evening. Apologies for the apparent COI TJRC.. we were not at all aware that's what we'd end up doing! We were merely trying to correct information on this Wikipedia page since it was likely written by someone outside the organization without our knowledge nor consent, and was citing incorrect / out-of-date information. We are a FinTech Startup working hard every day to make the financial industry a more meritocratic and better place, empowering talented traders to compete with institutions on a level playing field. We have nothing but good intentions in any effort we make towards that goal. If you could kindly advise how we can correct this COI and not disappear from Wikipedia entirely, we'd be eternally grateful. Thank you for your consideration. -- DarwinexLabs (talk) 22:34, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The COI is not the basis of my putting it up for deletion; it is the lack of notability of the company. With respect to your COI, you should probably simply refrain from editing the article, and instead suggest edits on the talk page. Please see and follow WP:COI, where you have been directed on your talk page. TJRC (talk) 22:44, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hard delete As it currently is, the company seems like a run of the mill startup that is not notable for most of the reasons start ups aren't (P.S. Changed vote based on more research that makes me think this isn't worth a soft delete). --Adamant1 (talk) 08:58, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
How about a soft keep, i have no idea if it'll be notable in future, but if we delete their wiki page, then the likelihood of their ideas working out goes down, and that's why i am spending this much time on them, i do think that their ideas are very noteworthy, you can see from my contribution history that i have subject matter expertise in this area : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 18:06, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If the company is notable then the page should not be deleted, but there is pretty much one path to demonstrating that: edit the page to satisfy WP:ORGCRIT, so that it includes multiple independent reliable sources that give this company significant coverage. Having a Wikipedia page in the hopes that it will increase coverage of a subject to then make that subject notable doesn't quite make sense, because to have a page in the first place the subject already needs to be notable. It also gets pretty close to using Wikipedia as a way to advertise a company, which isn't permitted (see WP:NOTADVERTISING). There's also not much room for personal authority in discussions on whether or not something is notable. A good explanation is in rule 8 of WP:10SIMPLERULES. - Astrophobe (talk) 22:32, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, that's what i was planning to do, edit the page to satisfy WP:ORGCRIT, so that it includes multiple independent reliable sources that give this company significant coverage. Having a Wikipedia page allowed me to learn about the ideas the company is using and this would now feed back on me spending time on something notable. Wiki is full of pages and subjects which i find pretty trivial and not notable at all. But I don't go around raising discussions for their deletion. I assume good faith on all those who are closer to the subject to make that judgement call --LSVTArmy (talk) 00:37, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This definitely is not an advertisement, but you have to understand power of wiki, people are getting their corona virus news from Wiki, so we all here at Wiki have some responsibility that we encourage great ideas even though they might have yet to receive some New York Times reporter's endorsement. There absolutely is scope for expertise on whether or not something is notable. I would not wade myself amongst corona virus article intricacy discussions, leave alone opining on deleting one of their pages. But, all the people opining here seem to be non-Finance, non-Investments, Non-Brokerage background trying to reach a conclusion based on their understanding only from the surface --LSVTArmy (talk) 00:37, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
First, Wikipedia isn't a news source. The only reason it has an article is because it's notable, but that's different then "newsyness." While lots of things might have New York times articles, they don't have Wikipedia articles because that's not the metric. That said, appeal to authority arguments are always extremely weak. Especially on an anonymous platform where you don't know who is or is involved in what. For all you know you any of us might have some experience in finance. It doesn't matter though since there is no expertise criteria for who can participate in something. Most of the time it would lead to "I'm the authority so I should get my way because X" bickering anyway if there was. So, we are not better not having it. Therefore, your free to wade into whatever Coronovirus discussions you want to. Just as anyone else is free to have an opinion on this article. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:24, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Let me re-phrase, Wiki is most def source of information. You probably don't know my expertise, but you know your expertise. Likewise, I wouldn't wade into areas like US Counties, because then i'll be taking up a lot of your time over my half baked arguments : ) I am well aware of the blindspots for Wiki Contributors and so I have absolutely no hope for getting my way just because I want it, all i can hope is some patience with the potential I can very well see here : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 03:20, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
LSVTArmy, it sounds like your argument boils down to, although this company is not currently notable, it is doing some interesting things and ought to get coverage that would make it notable; therefore we should treat it as notable. But that's not a valid argument. Wikipedia includes articles people and things that are notable, not people and things that we believe should be notable. (And, conversely, we have articles on people and things that arguably should not be notable, yet are notable nonetheless. Kardashians is too easy a target, so let me instead go to Richard Nanes for an example.) TJRC (talk) 19:53, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Let me re-phrase, this company is maybe notable, it definitely is trying to solve an obvious problem, i only found out about it because it's Wiki page was still up and so i learnt about it from there, i would assume some good faith here and give it little bit more time, and then you can do another round of afd, same with Richard, we can do another round of afd for him in future, may he rest in peace till then : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 20:43, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DeleteComment: The argument for notability among English-language sources looks very weak. I can only find one in-depth English language article on this company, and some scattered entries among sketchier sources, so on the basis of English sources I would easily vote delete. However, including Spanish-language sources (as permitted under WP:GNG point 3), a superficial inspection to a non-Spanish speaker makes the picture suddenly completely bewildering. They get in-depth coverage time and time again from one source: There is one particular radio station that appears to be obsessed with this company, doing a 40 minute radio segment, a 30 minute radio segment, a 20 minute radio segment, a 35 minute radio segment, another 35 minute radio segment ... all just about this company. I can pretty much understand the literal meanings because I speak related languages, but I simply lack the cultural context to understand what is going on here. Is this a really amazing WP:RS rescue by this one radio station that happens to be the only independent reliable source that really thinks this company is worth covering in extreme detail? Is this probably paid coverage? Something in between? I would like to see comments from someone who understands how to interpret this. - Astrophobe (talk) 22:17, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the argument for notability is currently weak, they have been in existence since 2012 and not been able to achieve exponential growth which the company needs in order to maintain notability and not start to fade into oblivion. In fact, I am a hard core Finance guy and have accounts with all the major brokers and I hadn't heard of this broker myself till 2 days ago. So, yeah, they are not notable at all. But they are trying to solve the problem which i faced with all other brokers who i already have an account with. This caught my attention and now I am wasting all this time trying to help with their mission. But hey, like that Spanish Radio Station, my efforts might be in vain, but this is no different from what Lincoln faced. There was tremendous opposition to giving black people their rights. Hey, I am that black person, you give me some rights here and in hundred years, I'll produce a Mozart for you, just like the black people's Mozart, u like Michael Jackson don't u : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 01:03, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The Spanish radio coverage doesn't ultimately matter because an FM radio jockey is no more authoritative then a blogger IMO. That said, it would be interesting to know what their thing with it is. My guess is some kind of pay to play thing or the radio host has investments in the company and is preaching about it to make his stocks go up. Quite a lot blogs and other sources of financial "news" do the same thing. Even ones that might otherwise seem legitimate. --Adamant1 (talk) 01:30, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I have barely done any editing related to companies so I'm happy to defer on this, but the reason that it really stuck out to me is that it reminded me of point 12 of WP:SINGER. There are situations in biographies of people where (if Capital Radio is what it looks like, a nationwide radio station) this sort of coverage would qualify the page for notability, but of course that's a different guideline and I don't really know what to make of this type of coverage in this case. Hence just commenting to make sure it's not totally overlooked. - Astrophobe (talk) 01:37, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There's so many comments because you flooded the AfD with irrelevant, off topic crap. Everyone knew what your opinion about it was after your first comment. The rest has been completely pointless noise. You keep going off about how we should cancel the AfD so you can improve the article, you could have done that a couple of times over by now if the company was actually notable instead of wasting your time with the useless commenting. --Adamant1 (talk) 00:23, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The more coverage that's brought up the better. Even if it might not qualify. I've tried argue a couple of times that a company's article should be kept based on the notability guidelines for events, but no one went for it. --Adamant1 (talk) 02:17, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The fact that radio jockey has gone to this length tells me that he is able to see the same purpose and potential that i am able to see so clearly. Of course his starting point was the fellow countrymen who founded this vision in a foreign country, just like my starting point from their competitors like eToro. It's definitely not money, I can guarantee you this, people who are this passionate are driven from the object itself, not the resulting financial pressure, absolutely not. To mitigate any potential conflict of interest, you are more than welcome to revert any changes i might make to the page, if it's not obvious to the reader, it has no place on Wiki : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 03:43, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Rather than worrying about whether Capital Radio Jockey coverage is notable or not, how about you and I see if these ideas themselves are worthy of taking a note, much like ideas of Hans P. Eugster, somebody clearly felt that they were noteworthy and made a wiki page for it, maybe his next door colleague was more noteworthy at the time, but those ideas couldn't stand the test of time and thus that poor fellow has got no wiki page : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 04:04, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hard to believe that this needs to be said: absolutely do not use other peoples COI disclosures to talk about their families in article for deletion discussions. Now I will disengage because there is nothing left to do here. - Astrophobe (talk) 20:19, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Because all of us have blindspots, we find it hard to appreciate of what we are unable to see, that's the reason I was trying to talk about subjects that you might find it easy to understand and appreciate, now i don't know you personally, so i have no idea of what you are able to understand, so i picked the first subject on your home page i could myself relate to, grandfather, we all have them and we all understand that topic and so i can now talk about something we both could understand : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 20:29, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'll of course try to get more coverage, I might even pass on references of this fantastic attempt to the reporters myself. But that would take time, so patience is all i am asking for. If after some time, you are still not seeing enough notability, you are more than welcome to raise another round of afd : ) --LSVTArmy (talk) 04:14, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Seeking more comments on the Spanish-language sources found by Astrophobe.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, — Newslingertalk 05:24, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment regarding Spanish-language sources: Four of the five sourced provided by Astrophobe largely consist of Juan Colón, CEO of Darwinex, speaking about the company. Thus they fail the "independence" clause of being a reliable source. This leaves [29], which consists of Eriz Zárate, CEO of Zárate-Mateo Algorithmic Systems, speaking about his own company, Darwinex, and a partnership (or merger) between the two companies. This is also of questionable independence, but even assuming it is independent, I do not believe this is sufficient coverage to meet WP:NCORP. Also, the Wikidata page (Q66114095) says it was founded in 2013, suggesting it leans towards the radio jockey end of the spectrum. userdude 05:46, 23 March 2020 (UTC); edited 05:53, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, really good catches. So just one person doing a shocking number of interviews with the CEO for reasons I won't speculate about. - Astrophobe (talk) 05:58, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I am unable to locate any significant coverage with in-depth information on the company and containing independent content. The test is not merely for "independent sources". The criteria for establishing notability for companies/organizations as per WP:NCORP is for multiple sources (at least two) of significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". Also, "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. The references fail NCORP, topic fails GNG/WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 14:41, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Snow delete Even if the DRV of the other page is overturned, this is not at all acceptable: excessive cross-categorization. Reywas92Talk 07:09, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:IINFO, being diagnosed with COVID-19 is not nearly significant enough to the subject to warrant such a cross-categorisation. I doubt we'd even bother mentioning it in the subject's article in most cases, unless they died from it. A list of people with a disease isn't necessarily a problem, and List of HIV-positive people is a featured list, but that disease is life changing and COVID-19 isn't.

Comment Probably a lone voice here, but I'd wait for the outcome of the DRV. If the main list is restored, then I see no reason why sub-lists can't exist, providing everything is sourced, etc. LugnutsFire Walk with Me 08:15, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Delete Not only is this article a breach of WP:BLP, this article is also a breach of law in several countries, publishing lists of medical prognosis without consent can allow action be taken against wikipedia, seriously, these lists and anything else like this should be exterminated by admins ASAP.

Delete and ban the creator from BLP articles, please. Serious BLP concern, and excessive over-categorization. ValarianB (talk) 13:07, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete While the split would be reasonable if we're going to have this kind of article in the first place, in order to keep the size manageable, the other concerns above are completely valid as to why we shouldn't have such lists to begin with. To use nom's example, if we were to maintain lists of individuals with impacted wisdom teeth, splitting it into articles for cross-country skiers, musicians, etc. would be reasonable to keep the size manageable, but we shouldn't have such lists to begin with.
