John Baltimore[edit]

Article asserts notability, but I can't find much evidence for it. The "DC Philharmonic Orchestra" that he was allegedly conductor of doesn't exist - the website (linked to in the article's talk page) is gone, and this site indicates it dissolved in 2007. GNews turns up nothing. There is a "Jon Baltimore" music store in New York but that is unrelated. Much of this article also seems to be fluff (Petting zoo experiences? Studying pilates and yoga?)

Delete - According to some articles in the Baltimore Sun ([1], [2]), Mr. Baltimore attempted to start a new "DC Philharmonic" in 2009 but it immediately collapsed and made the news for cancelling its inaugural symphony. It appears that his orchestra was never heard from again. Mr. Baltimore only made the news very briefly due to this mishap, and has no reliable media coverage of any of his other endeavors.

Comment - How many other Timber Wolf characters are there in comics? --Rtkat3 (talk) 18:03, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Since people that say “not notable” will never check and make sure if the character is not notable I will add a potential sources list. My stance is Keep obviously and I am exhausted on explaining why.Jhenderson⁷⁷⁷ 23:44, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That is a single article from a website that has zero standards, and another site that has released a mindboggling eighty one listicles on March 13th, 2020 alone. You seem to be mixing pop culture notability and Wikipedia Notability in most of your arguments. TTN (talk) 23:53, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Forget it. I am not trying any more. I noticed more sources. But I am still voting on keep. Nothing will suit you anyway. Just like nothing will change my vote. Jhenderson⁷⁷⁷

Keep per WP:NEXIST. I've found one non-fiction source here:
- The Legion Companion by Glen Cadigan, TwoMorrows Publishing (2003)

Timber Wolf has also been discussed as part of Brian Michael Bendis' new Legion of Super-Heroes lineup:

"Examing Bendis’ New Legion of Super-Heroes Group Picture", Comic Book Revolution (July 26, 2019)
"What to Expect From DC’s New Legion of Super-Heroes" by Mike Cecchini, Den of Geek (Sept 30, 2019)

as well as listings for verifiability in the usual encyclopedias:

DC Comics Year By Year: A Visual Chronicle, DK Publishing (2010)
The DC Comics Encyclopedia DK Publishing (2004)

I think collectively this helps to demonstrate notability. I'll add these to the article in a Further reading section so that editors who want to improve the article can use these as resources. -- Toughpigs (talk) 03:19, 14 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This largely seems like it's proving that Legion of Super Heroes is notable, which isn't really in question. They are most notable as a group, not as individual members._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 07:09, 14 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Jesus H Christ. Not this stuff again.

For the Nth time: first of all, this article easily meets all of the 7 Virtues. Specifically, it easily meets (or can be made to meet) the WP:GNG. Most of our articles don't (as you'd see if you checked a large enough sample size of random articles). It's otherwise a perfectly good article, too -- better than our average article, in fact (again, check it against a random sample if you don't believe me).

Anyway, to delete an article that unquestionably meets the WP:GNG requires an extraordinary argument, far beyond "I don't think this guy is notable" which is what we got.

Second of all, the very first pillar of the Wikipedia:Five pillars is "Wikipedia is an encyclopedia". The opening words are "Our encyclopedia...", and this phrase is bluelinked to WP:ENCYCLOPEDIA, which opens with -- I'll reproduce the format here:

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia.

An encyclopedia is a written compendium of knowledge.

Wikipedia is freely available, and incorporates elements of
general and specialized encyclopedias, almanacs, and gazetteers.

See where it says "Wikipedia... incorporates elements of... specialized encyclopedias"? They put it in big bold letters so that nobody would miss it. Supposedly.

So, what is the DC Comics Encyclopedia? What is the DC Universe? What is the Encyclopedia of American Animated Television Shows? All of which have entries on this entity (and there are probably others). Are these interpretive dances? Are they housing projects in Pueblo, Colorado, or stars in the constellation Cygnus, or 12th century Dutch priests, or any other thing except specialized encyclopedias? They're not.

And it's not like the nominator has not previously been shown this -- many times, in fact, I believe. He knows perfectly well that this entity is covered in depth, in several encyclopedia and elsewhere too. He does. He could edit the article to include these refs. But he's got a different agenda, doesn't he.

I'm pissed. I was getting ready to write an article, and instead I have to with this nonsense. This is not what AfD is for. It's tiresome and it's got to end. Herostratus (talk) 01:47, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody really cares about your soapbox rambling. Just say if you think it can pass WP:GNG and how. By the way, nothing that you posted helps it pass GNG. TTN (talk) 01:59, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Was there any effort to establish notability before nomination?--Moxy 🍁 07:32, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I guess it depends if you'd say the above links constitute significant coverage relevant to WP:GNG. I'd say I have a fundamental disagreement with many sources presented in these AfDs, topical pop culture stuff that barely mention the character, junk listicles from dubious sites, character encyclopedias that are entirely factual with zero commentary, etc. When I see links like those in a search, I completely ignore them as trivial coverage. TTN (talk) 11:25, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Let this page stay. He is a notable character and is one of the main characters in the Legion of Super-Heroes TV series. Plus, @Jhenderson777:, @Toughpigs:, and @Herostratus: are right about their keep reasons and I agree with their keep reasons. --Rtkat3 (talk) 18:03, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of Legion of Super-Heroes members. It has an entry for the character that contains all the real world information the current article does. The sources above show the character is notable as a member of the Legion, but do not show notability apart from it.

Redirect to List of Legion of Super-Heroes members per Argento Surfer. The above sources show that the character's notability is tied to that of the team that he is part of. The important real-world aspects of the character are already covered on the target list, including his creators, his first appearance, and even the versions of the Legion he was part of. The only things that are not already covered there, really, are the copious amounts of in-universe WP:PLOT information. Rorshacma (talk) 03:41, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of Legion of Super-Heroes members. The character is tied to a group and I cannot find any reliable sources that indicate the character is notable on its own merits. --Darth Mike^(talk) 20:02, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect. GNG tells us whether a topic is notable of not. But notability alone does not mean we automatically have to have a standalone page and in this case, as is fairly standard for minor characters in a franchise, a section on a list page is sufficient. — Amakuru (talk) 23:56, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As even some of the supporters of nomination have acknowledged, reliable sources have been identified to establish notability for this article. WP:GNG is the standard by which we determine whether an article should be deleted, and it meets those guidelines, so should not be deleted. A merge or redirect discussion could always be raised on the article's talk page and/or the appropriate Wikiproject, since there is no clear and obvious consensus for that emerging in this AFD discussion. — Hunter Kahn 19:56, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of Legion of Super-Heroes members. I agree with the other redirect !votes above that the sourcing shows the team is notable, but not the character individually.

Comment. I am one of the keep voters and I am plan to seek more articles to show more notability and maybe improve the article. I think some of what @Toughpigs: placed is a good start but not enough so I encourage him to dig more and copyedit the article more (not just put them in see also). Bottom line I feel almost all the Silver Age Legion of Superheroes are notable. Yes I said that! So I am biased on the keep stance. With good reasoning. They have been around a while and rebooted with very popular writers etc. Especially this character. He even got his own comic book. He was even compared to (pop-culture wise) as the Wolverine before there was Wolverine. So anyway here comes the link dump at the bottom to help preserve the article even though Imperfect :

[3] Comic Book Resources may be a obvious source but it still remains notable.
[4] I assume it is a reliable source. Even though it won't be. If helps prove he got his own series.
[5] I know it's a satire site but it's a fair example of Wolverine being called a rip-off of the character despite Wolverine being awesome.
[6] another example from Screen Rant.
[7] Reliable source maybe?
The Comic Book Heroes: From the Silver Age to the Present (A book)
"The characterization of Brin as having an aggressive, animal side has been inconsistent (although he did once morph into a full blown creature and was called "Furball"). What HAS been consistent is his portrayal as a big softie at heart. He was also from a planet called Zuun, which is amazing and always reminded me of Zoony the Lazoon from Fireball X-L 5."
"Dave's design was, of course, based on Timberwolf, who he'd been drawing for a while in the Legion of Superheroes."
[8] CBR again
[9] Publication history detail maybe

[12] - unreliable source which accepts user-generated contents[13] like medium.com.
[14] is aggregated from this[15], a self-published press release by PRUnderground. Not to mention that this source is about the launch of a show.

--KartikeyaS (talk) 19:23, 13 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Just few points to add:

Ref#2 is from YouTube for sure but it was interview from Khalejia TV which as I mentioned is a subsidiary of Rotana Group.
Ref#5: You mentioned its about the launch of the show. The show is basically the creation of subject himself so I guess associating reference isn't a ::bad thing to add.

After an extensive investigation, I do not believe the subject meets our notability guidelines for musicians or actors, nor general notability guidelines. While there is a smattering of sources (with No Depression being the only major news source) and a mere mention in a journal article, the subject:

Has not received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times;
Has not made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in a specific field;
Has not had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions (just a few minor characters and non-credits);
Does not appear to have a large fan base or a significant "cult" following;
Does not appear to have made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment;
Does not qualify for music criteria guidelines 1-12.

Delete – Although the article looks better now, I don't think the topic justifies a separate article. The sources given are only passing mentions in general local history articles; "Carolside" is basically just an old farm name that has lived on through its use for a couple of streets and a primary school that were built over it. Interesting micro-history, but it has ever been a settlement in its own right, just a housing development that expanded Clarkston – there was never an ancient village of this name, or anything. The Gazetteer for Scotland doesn't have an entry for it, which I think is an indication of its lack of significance. At the very best, a merge to Clarkston, East Renfrewshire may be appropriate for one or two snippets of info. 14:59, 2 April 2020 (UTC)Jellyman (talk)

Weak Delete: I really don't know if any of the subject's performances satisfy WP:NACTOR, but I am unable to find reliable sources on her. I'm qualifying my vote as a "Weak" Delete because it might be that I'm looking in the wrong places and that sources do exist.

Keep since this unfinished film is discussed in Indecent Exposure: A True Story of Hollywood and Wall Street. It is also listed in a Slate article here. Just because a film is unfinished does not mean it is automatically non-notable. We have Category:Unfinished films, and whether or not a standalone article is appropriate should depend on coverage.

Delete. County government is not an "inherently" notable role under WP:NPOL — a county commissioner can get into Wikipedia if his sourcing is solid enough to demonstrate a credible claim of significance, but is not automatically entitled to have an article just because he exists, and the sourcing here isn't enough to him over the bar.

GREENSOLE[edit]

AfDs for this article:

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

I am aware that this article recently passed AfD but it was closed before I could comment. Clearly, this topic fails the criteria for notability as the references all fail the criteria for establishing notability as per WP:NCORP and GNG. In fact, most of the references are churnalism. The reasons provided by the !voters in the original AfD indicate that they are unaware of that there is a higher standard for references to establish notability. The reasons continually reference "multiple independent sources", "legitimate sources", "the article is fine", "has enough coverage" all fail to address the content test which 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". For clarity, "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 as follows:

This from The Hindu Business Line is churnalism with the classic formula of; introduce entrepeneur(s); describe problem; describe solution; finish with forward looking statement; include photo. The article also relies entirely on information provided by the founders, there is no Independent Content, fails WP:ORGIND
This BBC article is also churnalism, relies entirely on interview and information provided by the company, fails WP:ORGIND
This from Entrepreneur India is .. also churnalism and is also based entirely on information provided by the company, fails WP:ORGIND.
This from Vogue India is yet more churnalism, based entirely on interview and information provided by the company, fails WP:ORGIND
This blog (because it is a blog) is not regarded as a WP:RS
This from DNA is also churnalism and is entirely based on interview and information provided by the company, fails WP:ORGIND
This from The Better India is churnalism and is entirely based on interview and information provided by the company, fails WP:ORGIND
This from Ilaap is a promo for the company to encourage cordfunding. Fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:ORGIND.
This from LiveMint is an interview/description of a teenager that uses the product and explains the background of why it is important to her. But the information on the company is clearly provided by the company themselves - for example this statement:With the money earned from the sale, it (GreenSole) plans to run on-site surveys to find schools where students may require shoes (especially if the average income of families in that area is below a certain level, or if the area surrounding the school is rocky), create more comfortable designs and to finally recycle more footwear for donations. Fails WP:ORGIND
This from Forbes fails WP:ORGIND.

My own searching for books and the other usual good sources yielded nothing. Topic fails WP:NCORP and GNG. HighKing⁺⁺ 14:18, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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

Article created by a paid sockfarm. There is not a single mention of this man in independant sources. The sources are all obvious paid puff pieces, some duplicated word-for-word [24][25]. Note that almost all of the sources are published on the same day (around 1 July 2019) despite him not having done anything newsworthy then, these are the same set of sponsored sources all our fake "up and coming entrepreneur" articles use. His supposed Forbes Magazine coverage is marked there as sponsored content [26][27], being listed as one of the riches Indians is a flat out lie [28].

Delete I said back in October that this was full of puffery but there was enough to suggest the subject was probably notable. I now revise that assessment. Thanks to Thjarkur for pointing out some of the deficiencies of coverage I initially though was in RS. With those now in great doubt, the subject no longer indicates significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 17:43, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The profile in Forbes magazine alone, which is an independent source, is a pretty strong indicator of notability. I’m not sure the characterization of the sources in the article as all paid for advertising is accurate. The nominator is going to have to do a better job making this case then glibly lumping all the sources as paid for/biased coverage because there are some immediately apparent sources that do pass the threshold at WP:Verifiability. Passes GNG based on the first AFD.4meter4 (talk) 13:47, 2 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if circumstances change. Founding a new political party is not an automatic inclusion freebie on Wikipedia in and of itself, especially if the party is so new and minor that it doesn't even have an article yet, but the volume of coverage shown here is not enough to get her over WP:GNG for it yet. That could obviously change in the future if the party starts having more political and social impact, and/or if she actually gets elected to an WP:NPOL-passing office.

It appears that the article was rewritten and retitled from an article on Luženičky, a Czech village. This was done by User:Wrenvek, a single purpose account. I support restoring the content from Special:Diff/782621746, moving the article to Luženičky, deleting the page with prejudice, and blocking User:Wrenvek per WP:NOTHERE. userdude 06:32, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The nomination's claim is false as we have plenty of lists of churches in cities such as Oxford, Cambridge, London, Moscow, &c. Lists are valid content on Wikipedia per WP:SAL while WP:NOTDIR is irrelevant because that just tells us to avoid operational detail. In this case, this would mean that we wouldn't detail the times of the church services or the cost of a wedding. Andrew🐉(talk) 09:55, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, i modified the nomination statement towards saying that we don't want a list like this one, in Leicester a very small city, where there in fact is nothing special about the Anglican churches. I dunno about List of churches in London, that is qualitatively different; maybe it makes sense to split the list of very notable London churches out of the London article. For the Anglican churches in Leicester, well most of them should not be mentioned anywhere because they are so non-notable and there is absolutely nothing to say about them. For the few (3 or whatever?) that are notable, we don't need a mini-list, they should just be mentioned in Leicester article. And they are mentioned or can be mentioned in List of Anglican churches in the United Kingdom, anyhow, which provides far more value for the reader because it presents them in context with other Anglican churches.

And, though I am not sure whether i like it or not, there exists Places of worship in Leicester, too, more comparable to the List of churches in London because both cover all types of notable churches, not just Anglican ones. There is no separate List of Anglican churches in London because it has not been deemed necessary by anyone to split that out from the overall List of Anglican churches in the United Kingdom. And it will never be necessary to split out just the Leicester ones. --Doncram (talk) 22:02, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for similar reasons as the Catholic churches AfD. I imagine most churches (not chapels) in Europe pass GNG, and grouping them into lists by city seems to be the most natural way. I've counted eleven blue-linked items here and potentially dozens more that could have future articles, certainly too much to fit into the Leicester article, even if we decide to never flesh this list out. Daß Wölf 15:56, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I know the closing admin will be smart enough to ignore the fallacious OSE arguments above. Wikipedia is not a directory of every church on the planet or in a particular city. List only those that are notable or designated historic in a consolidated article, but it is not appropriate to just tabulate the names of every establishment, be they religious or commercial. Reywas92^Talk 20:19, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There are ten churches and a cathedral that are blue linked to their own articles. It meets its requirement for a navigational list article. Dream Focus 20:39, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
OKAY! So we can delete the non-articles since we aren't navigating to them, right? And then we can merge the blue links to Places of worship in Leicester, so people can navigate among all the notable churches, conveniently in one page rather than spread across several directories of generic non-notable buildings for each denomination. Reywas92^Talk 20:49, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep-the Baptist article was draftified despite three scholarly sources showing the notability of the topic. It really doesn't matter how many sources we have to prove GNG when the WP policies/rules on lists are vague enough for people to interpret them how they want. The WP policies/rules on lists should be updated to end this sort of behavior.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 21:24, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Right, the Baptist one and two other too-narrow Leicester lists were deleted or draftified. Because I and others who really looked at the sources identified which superficially seemed very relevant, we determined that there in fact is nothing worthwhile in those sources towards building a proper list-article. There was/is nothing to say about the numerous non-notable churches. I usually don't like for an AFD to be about cleaning up a given article, so if it were just a matter of developing using the identified sources, I would have objected. But the sources suck (technical term) for the purpose. The list-articles could not be developed, so should be deleted. Again, here, too. And there is larger principle that we do not want local directories of churches, or McDonalds shops, etc.; we only want a local list if necessary for size reasons to split out from a larger list, not the case here. --Doncram (talk) 22:02, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm pretty sure it wasn't the intent of the rulemakers on Wikipedia to prejudice the website against local topics. If that is the outcome we need to fix the rules, and in the meantime not follow them in a servile manner. As for your claims pertaining to the references, it is highly superficial to say that while Baptists in a certain town are notable, their churches are not. Sort of like how the Soviets said they had freedom of religion, but then demolished/converted to secular use a large number of churches that would have otherwise been used. Under ordinary circumstances, Baptists and Baptist churches go together.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 22:24, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Epiphyllumlover (E) is referring to assertions in the related AFDs by some that "Baptists in Leicester" and/or "Methodists in Leicester" would be valid topics (I did not personally agree), while the sources by author Rimmington and others did not support having lists of church addresses or the like (I did agree that these were inadequate for a church list article). E, please correct me if I am wrong. This included this exchange in the Baptist AFD between Epiphyllumlover and myself, in which I stated that one source suggested by E "appears it might support an article on Baptists in Leicester, though not about Baptist churches AFAICT", but I want to emphasize that I only agreed it "might" (and User:Djflem later in that diff points out that the source is not available online and could not be fully evaluated). In fact I never agreed that "Baptists in Leicester" or any of these was a valid topic, and somewhere else I commented that Rimmington's info about Leicester's Methodists and Methodist churches is excessive detail that oddly has been published (due to odd existence of local university journal, I guess), but is not useful encyclopedically, except perhaps as case detail in the general article about Methodism. Rimmington notably does not assert, much less establish, that there is anything at all special about Methodists or their churches in Leicester. So IMHO the Rimmington sources and the like can be mentioned as "for further reading" types of sources in a Leicester article, but a Wikipedia article should not be manufactured on the too-narrow / non-encyclopedic / nothing-special topic.

E, your views are clearly in good faith, and I see how you can be a bit puzzled why others (me at least) assert that these particular scholarly-type articles do fail to establish Wikipedia-notability of anything, especially when some seem to assert that an article about local Methodists if not their churches would be okay (which I don't agree with). I am happy to discuss elsewhere how the Rimmington sources plus wp:LISTN do not require or justify a separate Wikipedia article on Baptists or Methodists in Leicester. But this AFD is about the Anglican churches in Leicester, and discussion here should be about what specific sources here say. --Doncram (talk) 18:03, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

See my reply to E just above. I disagree that there is any problem with wp:LISTN, but am happy to talk about it, and how it does seem odd but true that scholarly-type sources seem (to me) to fail to establish Wikipedia-notability of "Baptist churches in Leicester" and the like.

Merge the notable churches to Places of worship in Leicester. Even if this does pass LISTN or WP:SAL, and I am not convinced it does, I think the notable entries would be far more useful to a reader when consolidated into one article along with the worship places of other religions than when sorted separately into a ton of articles. Devonian Wombat (talk) 03:33, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Churches are not inheriently notable per WP:NCHURCH and must otherwise meet the GNG or WP:NORG. A listing of all churches in city is equivalent to a business directory , which violates WP:NOT. A list of notable churches would be reasonable, but not a listing that includes non-notable churches. --Masem (t) 19:08, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge notable entries into Leicester or potentially Diocese of Leicester (the article places of worship in Leicester doesn't actually look to be a list of places of worship but a list of denominations that have churches there... which is weird).

Comment, is Leicester known as the "city of churches" in England (in OZ Adelaide has/had that title - although i note there doesn't seem to be one, see Category:Lists of churches in Australia)? if it does, that might warrant a "List of churches in Leicester" article with denominational sections and wikinotable churches only, but otherwise, Places of worship in Leicester can be expanded to include all the wikinotable churches (and other religious place) there.

User:Bearian, I don't see what you mean. Needs trimming? If there didn't have to be this AFD discussion, I would have trimmed it down to the few bluelink mentions in one step, then in another step removed those too after copying those into the List of Anglican churches (which I have done), and redirected it. "Delete" is what needs to be done now. What on earth do you want to save, and why? You want to keep duplicative mini-list, that should obviously be redirected/deleted? Sorry to seem maybe like I am badgering, but I really do not understand. --Doncram (talk) 04:15, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Doncram tells us that he has copied material from the page to elsewhere. Deletion would therefore be quite improper per WP:CWW, WP:MAD &c. Andrew🐉(talk) 13:08, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Nice to have concern about giving contributors credit, but there is nothing to give credit for. I think CWW and MAD apply only for writing that is, well, writing. There is nothing which could conceivably be copywrite-worthy, be worth crediting. In this diff i did add a mere list of church articles. No more substantial than copying from Category:Church of England church buildings in Leicestershire or any other category. Appears like trying to "win" this AFD "contest" on a technicality that doesn't apply. I don't care about "winning", but it kinda irks me that editors are showing up trying to preserve nothingness as if to support real editors who wrote something, but there were no real editors who ever wrote anything here. I don't get what anyone is trying to protect; everyone should just be ashamed, and rectification = deletion is the right outcome IMHO. --Doncram (talk) 15:51, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The proposed merger would not be rectification, it would be wrong. The list of Anglican churches, which Doncram prefers, has a global scope while there are about 16,000 such churches in England alone. Trying to list every church in the world on one page seems quite impractical. Splitting the data by city or county is more natural and sensible and that's what done by authorities such as Pevsner and the Victoria County Histories. Also, moving the entries to another list does not address the complaint of WP:NOTDIRECTORY which the nomination has as its pretext. It's not logical and it's not our policy. Andrew🐉(talk) 17:18, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NOTDIRECTORY is about deleting the 47 or so non-notable ones. The main point of requesting deletion is to put a stake into the wish to list non-notables; a simple "Delete" decision would be most clear and helpful, heading off future edit wars with some deleting and some re-adding non-notables. Sure, the world-wide list can/will be split by big geographic areas, when needed, but that doesn't justify creating thousands of mini-list articles of just 2 or 3 items each in each minor city or town or village. Nor does it justify visiting every city, town, village article which exists and splitting out each sentence or mini-paragraph into new articles. If/when legitimate Wikipedia coverage of Anglican churches in Leicester grew too big (which I think is never going to happen), then I suppose it could be copied to a new page. Like I said, there is no credit due to prior editors for that.
About sources, two of the three supposed sources in the article are just directories, the third is a self-published booklet which no Wikipedia editor has seen. You speak of "Pevsner" and "Victoria County Histories" as if those might be sources with information to use. But in none of the related AFDs has anyone ever used Rimmington or Moore or any other sources to develop anything at all (at least not anything substantial/legitimate), because there's nothing encyclopedic to say AFAICT. If, contrary to my expectation, P and VCH have content that some future editor could use, then that future editor should get credit for creating a new article, I suppose. Bye. --Doncram (talk) 20:44, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There's no "as if" about Pevsner and the VCH. They contain huge amounts of information about English churches and Leicester is no exception. Here's a couple of links as examples of their level of detail

If people haven't mentioned such sources before then perhaps they have taken them for granted or they have little knowledge of the field. Me, I have attended events specifically about the VCH and have written articles such as St Stephen's Church, Ealing and so am quite familiar with them. Such buildings in the UK are usually notable and so it's just a matter of writing them up. There are so many of them that we still have lots to do and, per WP:LISTPURP, lists such as this are helpful in getting this done. Andrew🐉(talk) 23:08, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for humoring me by trying and digging out those links. I can read the first one but am over the number of pageviews to see the other. On one level, if someone in the future does decide to develop about such churches, then they certainly would deserve the credit. I don't like usage of wp:TNT in AFDs in general, but I do think that would apply: it would be a completely new article, and better to blow it up and start over, for their sake. But on a different perspective, well, I don't see merit in the detail there. It's all or mostly unusable statements about how nothing is known, or speculation; I would not find it satisfying, personally, to try to craft something out of that, myself. About St. Michael's:

The church of St. Michael was situated near the west gate of the borough, probably near the corner of the present Vauxhall Street and Causeway Lane. It is probable that the advowson of St. Michael's, like that of other churches in Leicester, was given to the college of St. Mary de Castro in 1107, and subsequently, in 1143, to Leicester Abbey. (fn. 25) The abbey certainly possessed the advowson by about 1220, (fn. 26) and retained it as long as the church continued to exist. (fn. 27) Little information exists about the church; it had a priest and another cleric in 1200, (fn. 28) but about 1220 it was said to be so poor that it was scarcely able to support a priest at all. (fn. 29) It is not clear whether the church had been appropriated by 1220 or not. (fn. 30) Probably it had, for in 1221–2 a vicarage was established on the same terms as that at St. Clement's. (fn. 31) / By the end of the 15th century St. Michael's had become very poor. There was no vicar in 1487, (fn. 32) and the church was probably disused by about 1500. It is not mentioned in the records of the episcopal visitation of Leicester made in 1510. (fn. 33) The parish seems to have been united with that of St. Peter's.

That is the kind of source that might be suggested in a footnote for "additional reading", only, if there was something legitimate found elsewhere to say about that St. Michael's, to attach the footnote to. I totally relate to your implication that there's plenty else to develop in Wikipedia (many many years) before it would make sense for anyone to even consider manufacturing anything out of that. It is way too much a stretch to say "oh we must save mere mention of a church", without providing any useful info, for the indefinite if not infinite future. This is my opinion, YMMV. Again, sincerely, thank you for digging that out. --Doncram (talk) 02:07, 4 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I imagine most churches (not chapels) in Europe pass GNG, and grouping them into lists by city seems to be the most natural way. I could object to a smaller list but, there are twenty potentially blue-linkable items here, certainly too much to fit into the Leicester article. Daß Wölf 15:53, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NOT SO. It is not true that churches get a free pass for notability. Historic ones in Type I and II* listed buildings, yes, but run-of-the-mill current or former churches are not worth articles and are not worth mentioning anywhere. All the actually blue-linked ones are now mentioned in List of Roman Catholic churches in the United Kingdom, and they can be mentioned in the Places of worship in Leicester list, and they could be mentioned in the Leicester article, too (though the Places of worship in Leicester mention is more than enough, methinks. If/when you develop 20 separate articles and those survive AFDs and those further appear to be too much to include within List of Roman Catholic churches in the United Kingdom and within Places of worship in Leicester, then sure, we can discuss the need to split those supposedly too-big list-articles. Not happening any time soon, and I think I will always disagree about the need for any such split. --Doncram (talk) 19:19, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've dug up an unexpected amount of info about minor old churches in Zagreb while working on other articles about my city. I haven't gotten around to writing articles about any of those churches yet, but I'd be surprised if a large portion of 150+ year-old churches hasn't attracted enough attention at least vis à vis the building to pass SIGCOV. If these do form the majority or a near-majority of all churches, why not list the rest? Being that Leicester is also an old city in a developed country with a millennium-old tradition of Christianity, I have no reason to believe the situation will be substatially different. I'm not near Leicester and wouldn't know where to start looking for offline sources which is where I've found most of the coverage in my case; hence I understand that an ought-to !vote won't carry much weight. Still, a presumption that because work hasn't been done, said work doesn't exist, isn't a strong argument either. For instance, the list of UK churches you created is very short not because that's all there is to the topic, but because you've neglected to mention 90%+ of the churches present in e.g. Category:Roman Catholic churches in the United Kingdom.

Delete I know the closing admin will be smart enough to ignore the fallacious OSE arguments above. Wikipedia is not a directory of every church on the planet or in a particular city. List only those that are notable or designated historic in a consolidated article, but it is not appropriate to just tabulate the names of every establishment, be they religious or commercial. Reywas92^Talk 20:19, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep-the Baptist article was draftified despite three scholarly sources showing the notability of the topic. It really doesn't matter how many sources we have to prove GNG when the WP policies/rules on lists are vague enough for people to interpret them how they want.

Merge only the notable entries to Places of worship in Leicester, Reywas92 is correct in that Wikipedia is not a place to list every single church in a particular place, and the churches worth mentioning can easily be consolidated in a list along with the worship places of all other religions in the main article.

Keep. Not obvious how it violates the rules. PPEMES (talk) 07:14, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the current list-article is a violation of wp:NOTDIRECTORY. And there is no source identified which meets wp:NLIST's requirement that this group or set of things ("Catholic churches in Leicester") is a thing itself of interest/importance for Wikipedia. And it is redundant to other existing lists that include (or can include) all 3 of its examples. Note, this AFD could have been framed, I suppose, as a Merger proposal, or I could have just boldly merged it to Leicester or the larger Roman Catholic churches list-article (and in the process simply deleted all 47 or so apparently non-notable ones) myself, but given the brouhaha about the related AFDs, I think this needs to be done by explicit AFD. And I personally prefer "Delete" as the preferred outcome here to accentuate the idea we are getting rid of something awful, rather than characterizing this as "Merge" or "Redirect" as if to suggest there was anything of merit to be merged.
Please do see somewhat different comments in concurrent AFD about Anglican churches in Leicester. Here, if people want to save this list they should be presenting sources about Roman Catholic churches in Leicester, but no one is doing so. Because, I think, it is not a notable topic. --Doncram (talk) 19:19, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. In the United States, we have articles about the Catholic Church's archdioceses and pastoral regions that include lists of each church within the diocese. E.g., Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Detroit, Our Lady of the Angels Pastoral Region or Santa Barbara Pastoral Region. This is entirely appropriate encyclopedic content. Perhaps the article at issue here would be better if similarly organized by archdiocese or pastoral region, but in no event should the content be deleted. Cbl62 (talk) 18:57, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

There's no substantial content besides mention of 3 that have articles, and these 3 are mentioned elsewhere. As Cbl62 knows, I am a big advocate and developer of list-articles in Wikipedia, by the way; i just see no merit in having this and the related local list-articles that add no value relative to other coverage in Wikipedia. I'm not completely sure what I think about the archdiocese-area type articles/list-articles Cbl62 links to, but those are clearly more substantial. And potentially sometime in the future the List of Roman Catholic churches in the United Kingdom could be split out by archdiocese or similarly (and an archdiocese is a larger geographic level than Leicester alone i am pretty sure), to make something like that, if there is enough development to justify splitting. But that potentially valid future purpose is not served by preserving the current directory-type list of apparently non-notable RC churches here. Sorry, maybe too much response by me, i will comment less. --Doncram (talk) 19:30, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, is Leicester known as the "city of churches" in England (in OZ Adelaide has/had that title - although i note there doesn't seem to be one, see Category:Lists of churches in Australia)? if it does, that might warrant a "List of churches in Leicester" article with denominational sections and wikinotable churches only, but otherwise, Places of worship in Leicester can be expanded to include all the wikinotable churches (and other religious place) there.

Not one of those "mental disorders" is even mentioned in the cited web page.

Keep - This nomination indicates a pretty lackluster WP:BEFORE search and possibly a failure to read the article and its many statements on the band's notability. Any Google search conducted with more than the simple word "Scream" will come up with overwhelmingly reliable results. Do a search for <"Scream" + "Dave Grohl"> and you will find many articles about the band's history in reliable publications like Louder [29], Consequence of Sound [30], NME [31], Rolling Stone [32], Loudwire [33], Blabbermouth [34], and numerous others. Via a Google Books search you will find that they are covered prominently in several biographies of Dave Grohl, Foo Fighters, and Nirvana; and punk histories like Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge by Mark Yarm and The Day the Music Died by Les MacDonald. The article needs cleanup, not deletion. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 20:16, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment @DOOMSDAYER520: As stated in my AfD reason I did a search on Google. I'm not sure how you would know it was "pretty lackluster", but whatever. Your yourself say nothing comes up unless the band is search for with Dave Grohl. Notability isn't inherited. So, if f a bunch of articles about Dave Grohl mention the band in passing that speaks to the notability of the band itself. Maybe the guy is notable, I don't really know or care since he isn't the subject of the AfD, but the band clearly isn't. Also, notability isn't determined by the Wikipedia article itself saying the subject is notable. Good try though. --Adamant1 (talk) 04:16, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What I meant was a search of a basic word like "Scream" is unlikely to generate results about this band, so a more targeted search in conjunction with something more specific, such as the name of one member, will narrow things down. The exact same thing would have happened with <"Scream" + "Franz Stahl">. I did not claim that notability is inherited, I was instead referring to the longstanding guideline #6 at WP:NBAND. Read the sources that I listed in my vote and you will find that they cover the history of the band. Any history of Derek and the Dominos is bound to mention Eric Clapton but that does not mean they are only notable because of him. Nice try though. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 13:21, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Except when you put Dave Grohl + Scream into Google Search it comes with the exact same results I said I already checked and dont count in my nomination comment. There is no special more usable articles that magically appear by using Dave Grohl in the search or at least not ones I hadnt already looked at that you falsely claimed I didnt, because you thought you had some secret knowlege about to use a search engine that I dont. Like its not really damn obvious that more results will come up for a band if you search for the name of a band member along with it. As far as WP:NBAND #6 goes, who was the other person notable person in the band? Btw, most of his other lesser known acts dont have Wikipedia articles. There must be a reason for that besides that no one thought of creating them. There isnt an artice for Kurt Cobain's band The Jury or for the associated acts of many other notable musicians, because its not inherated. Adamant1 (talk) 14:34, 24 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep passes WP:NMUSIC criteria 1 (only one criteria needed) and WP:GNG due to significant coverage in multiple reliable sources such as Rolling Stone, NME, Consequence of Sound, and multiple reliable book sources so they deserve to have an article and deletion would be unjustified in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 00:42, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If you think they pass WP:NMUSIC #1 fine, but it requires non-trivial coverage. So can you provide ref to the sigificant in-depth, non-trivial coverage you claim exists? Because that's all I'm seeing. The only Rollong Stone article I'm seeing is about them reissuing an album. Which doesn't count IMO. Its only like two paragraphs and dont really talk about the band in an in-depth way. So where's the significant in-depth, multiple source, coverage exactly?

Keep - Notability is not inherited. However, when reliable news sources such as the NME and Rolling Stone choose to cover a band, as we all know, they do so for a wide variety of reasons: changing tastes, famous associations, shocking behavior off the mic, and so on. Whatever their motives are doesn't really matter for our purposes. The point is that the band has gotten repeated mention in a way that makes deletion seem like the wrong call.

Beretta, Giorgio (2019). European VAT and the Sharing Economy. Alphen aan den Rijn: Wolters Kluwer. ISBN 978-94-035-1435-2. Retrieved 2020-03-30. The book notes: §2.08 The Other Side of 'Sharing': HomeExchange and Blablacar [A] HomeExchange: Bartering Has Never Been So Cool Founded with the name of GuestToGuest in France in 2011 by Charles-Edouard Girard and Emmanuel Arnaud, together with twenty-two families of various nationalities, the leading platform for barter exchanges of accommodation turned its name into HomeExchange after the acquisition of the homonymous US-based company in 2017. Subsequent to the merger, the French company relocated its legal seat in the US. The platform operates a virtual marketplace offering its users a series of services to connect with other peers and to conclude home exchanges among themselves. More specifically, the platform allows host members to post advertisements offering residential properties, which they own or of which they are tenants, for exchange and guest members to respond to such offerings. The company also arranges for some special accommodation schemes, i.e., family, senior, disabled, and pet-friendly exchanges. As to March 2019, the platform the platform counts over 400,000 listed properties located in 187 countries with 10,000 new properties added on average per month. Other than being just a company, HomeExchange regards itself as a community of people committed to social values such as 'welcoming, sharing, caring, and discovering'. The business model of HomeExchange can be summarized as follows. After registering with the platform and creating an account by providing personal information as requested, each member gains access to the messaging service provided by the platform, as well as to other details necessary to contact the other party. Arrangements concerning the exchange (e.g., number of nights or guests) are made directly by members through the messaging service provided by the platform. During exchanges, hosts can be present or not. In any event, members are encouraged to provide each other practical information and travel advices or, even, to create a 'home guide'. Both hosts and guests are requested to rate their own exchange experiences using a five-star scale. Exchanges between members of the community are usually concluded free-of-charge, based on a gratuitous loan for use agreement. Hosts, however, are permitted to charge guests with cleaning fees.

The book notes: Not long ago, a travel company called HomeExchange.com was simply one of several firms working in the field of vacation and home exchanges ("you stay in their home while they stay in yours"). Then some folks in Hollywood produced an utterly unrealistic but wildly unenthusiastic film about a home exchange (The Holiday, starring Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet) in which the owner of a palatial mansion in Southern California swaps (for a time) her gigantic residence with swimming pool and extensive grounds for a cozy cottage in Great Britain. And reference was made in the film to HomeExchange.com, which is portrayed as bringing about the fictitious swap. The entire transaction, as depicted in the film, took less than 24 hours to arrange. When The Holiday was released, a firestorm of bookings occurred. The phones rang off the hook, and thousands of persons all over the world rushed to add their homes or apartments to the vacation inventory of HomeExchange.com. At the Los Angeles Times Travel Show, the owner of HomeExchange.com was in attendance, along with his expanded staff and a recently hired public relations representative. Since then, his firm has skyrocketed in size, and charges a fee of $99 a year for its assistance. If you don't snare an exchange the first year, you get the second year free. HomeExchange.com now has more than 20,000 listings—repeat, 20,000 homes and apartments around the world. While HomeExchange.com may not be the largest such exchange firm, it's obviously contending for the top spot, and should be considered for your own next vacation. Buczynski, Beth (2013).

§2.08 The Other Side of 'Sharing': HomeExchange and Blablacar

[A] HomeExchange: Bartering Has Never Been So Cool

Founded with the name of GuestToGuest in France in 2011 by Charles-Edouard Girard and Emmanuel Arnaud, together with twenty-two families of various nationalities, the leading platform for barter exchanges of accommodation turned its name into HomeExchange after the acquisition of the homonymous US-based company in 2017. Subsequent to the merger, the French company relocated its legal seat in the US. The platform operates a virtual marketplace offering its users a series of services to connect with other peers and to conclude home exchanges among themselves. More specifically, the platform allows host members to post advertisements offering residential properties, which they own or of which they are tenants, for exchange and guest members to respond to such offerings. The company also arranges for some special accommodation schemes, i.e., family, senior, disabled, and pet-friendly exchanges. As to March 2019, the platform the platform counts over 400,000 listed properties located in 187 countries with 10,000 new properties added on average per month. Other than being just a company, HomeExchange regards itself as a community of people committed to social values such as 'welcoming, sharing, caring, and discovering'.
The business model of HomeExchange can be summarized as follows. After registering with the platform and creating an account by providing personal information as requested, each member gains access to the messaging service provided by the platform, as well as to other details necessary to contact the other party. Arrangements concerning the exchange (e.g., number of nights or guests) are made directly by members through the messaging service provided by the platform. During exchanges, hosts can be present or not. In any event, members are encouraged to provide each other practical information and travel advices or, even, to create a 'home guide'. Both hosts and guests are requested to rate their own exchange experiences using a five-star scale. Exchanges between members of the community are usually concluded free-of-charge, based on a gratuitous loan for use agreement. Hosts, however, are permitted to charge guests with cleaning fees. Even the messaging service is provided by the platform to its members free-of-charge. For its other services, the company instead charges guests with a fixed fee of EUR 10 per night. An alternative form of payment is also provided. Users can in fact subscribe to an annual membership for a one-time payment of EUR 130 and, thus, benefit from accessing to an unlimited number of exchanges over a twelve-month period.

There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow HomeExchange.com to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

Cunard (talk) 09:45, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I accept ref. 1 as high-quality significant independent coverage; ref .2 is a travel guide I would normally be skeptical about, Ref.3 seems a routine listing. Ref 4 probably is OK, though not visible; Ref 5. is PR ; Ref. 6 is a mention; Ref.7 , by the same author as ref 2, is in more detail, ( presumably a syndicated feature--I doubt that particular newspaper was the only place it was published) that reads in large part like a PR interview, Ref. 8 is a routine listing . So what we have is one good academic book, 1 probably good academic article, 2 articles fro ma well-know travel guide writer, andsome miscellaneous.

1 & 4 seem sufficient for an article, and I am withdrawing the AfD, with my customary thanks to Cunard. DGG ( talk ) 17:28, 1 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The article doesn't even have a single reference covering the biographer in depth. All the references only cite him and some of his projects. Plus, it reads like an advertisement piece. In my point of view, it fails WP:GNG and WP:SOAP. SirEdimon (talk) 02:56, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There are three articles here; two are differently-named (I re-named the Woolwich venue to its current name), one simply doesn't exist.

Irvine, Wyoming[edit]

This one was another bear to search, between the last name problem and the city in California, which has a Wyoming Street, and I'm not convinced that there isn't something to be found that way. But the 1950 topo edition shows things clearly: it's a former siding on the now-abandoned Milwaukee Road line, and there was never a town here. Mangoe (talk) 02:21, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Battle of Wuzhou[edit]

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

Another unverifiable article on a Central Plains War battle. Two sources provided are a Taiwanese book which appears primary source and what looks like a self published website, which supposedly contains the battle (although I could not find it while searching its Chinese name from zhwiki). Neither of these sources count towards GNG. I also checked some RS books on the Central Plains War and could not verify the occurrence of this battle. It's not mentioned on Central Plains War article, so should not be redirected. b uidhe 12:28, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~ or Draftify In reply to a perfectly reasonable assumption, this is not a hoax or minor event, but a considerable battle. Deletion guidelines say "Articles that are in bad shape – these can be tagged for cleanup or attention, or improved through editing."

We also say Don't bite the newbies which appears to apply here. The [editor's history] shows January 2020 creation, and work and progress on several related articles. Editors have offered help in meeting guidelines, and the editor should follow them on sources and notes.

I searched WorldCat for the source, which is probably a local reprint of 美軍顧問團史政處編纂 United States Military Assistance Advisory Group in Taiwan (1967). 中國現代軍事史主要戰役表 Zhongguo Xian Dai Jun Shi Shi Zhu Yao Zhan Yi Biao. Taipei.((cite book)): CS1 maint: location missing publisher (link).

To be sure, this is not as big as Battle of Waterloo, but there are a few hits here and here to show that there actually was one. ch (talk) 18:38, 26 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

CWH, Thanks for your comment. I already found those sources during my BEFORE search, but they refer to a battle in May or June. The article seems to be about a different battle, which it states took place in January. b uidhe 00:49, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

BuidheThanks for following up and for your original nomination. I have now looked both at this and the other articles in the Central Plains War category and do not want to discourage good work, but now see the problem. As far as I can tell, they are translations from the ZH Wiki. Zee money, who is an experienced editor, and Jackson767, who is relatively new, have done the initial work and might want to comment on how they plan to expand these stubs and why they should not simply be part of Central Plains War.ch (talk) 18:01, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Even if the battle is mentioned somewhere, the article lacks footnote citations, and might contain WP:OR. Since no verifiable sources have been presented, we have to consider WP:V.
