The result was Routine closure due to questionable nomination. I'm closing this early as there was no reason to nominate that article at this point. The nom wants to keep it.

Non-notable school. Fails WP:NSCHOOL, WP:SIGCOV and WP:ORG. Peter Ormond 💬 22:13, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep on the grounds that there has been insufficient effort made to find sources. The RFC that amended the assumed notability of schools noted that "...Because extant secondary schools often have reliable sources that are concentrated in print and/or local media, a deeper search than normal is needed to attempt to find these sources. At minimum, this search should include some local print media" This particular nominator has been tagging schools articles for deletion at a rate of one every two minutes and that does not leave any time for any sort of search at all, let alone in local print sources which may only be available in the relevant country. The RFC also noted that "Editors are asked to refrain from making indiscriminate or excessive nominations. " I do not in any way doubt the sincerity of the nominator, who may be unaware of the RFC, and I share with them a real concern about the notability of many of the nominations, but I do think a little more investigation and a little less pace would help direct the effort in a more targeted and helpful way. Velella  Velella Talk   22:25, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment The RfC notes should not shall. AfD discussions can be relisted up to three times (given the circumstances), that's up to 4 weeks of time to at least provide some thought to these discussions. Additionally, the most important item from the RfC is WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. You can make either argument about how there is no deadline to delete or postpone discussion about whether it should be kept or not. There are sources or no sources. That will not change a month from now. To make it clear, this is perhaps the correct speed to take them. – The Grid (talk) 20:39, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

PROD rationale by User:Joseywales1961 was Fails the notability guidelines of WP:NFOOTBALL as he has not yet played a game in a fully professional league per list at WP:FPL, fails general notability.

Contested because the article was previously deleted in June 2008 when the subject was 5 years of age.

His only appearances to date have been in the English 7th tier, which is three whole tiers below professional football so I agree that NFOOTBALL is comprehensively failed. Coverage is routine and trivial and falls short of WP:GNG clearly. The only decent source is this Lancs Live article but even this is little more than a basic contract announcement followed by a quote from the player. The actual independent analysis is very limited. Even if this is considered a good source, GNG clearly requires multiple sources of significant depth and I couldn't find evidence of this online.

I'm very unsure if she meets WP:PROF and think there is a possibility she doesn't. The sources here are bad, one of them an eulogy published by her employer. As for PROF#5, "The person has held a named chair appointment or distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon", her professorship was at a university college which is one tier below universities. As for PROF#8, I'm unsure whether Acta Sociologica qualifies as a "chief editor of a major, well-established academic journal in their subject area". The current editors at least don't have articles.

There is absolutely nothing on this topic (neologism - ?) other than a single book—Creating a New Medina: State Power, Islam, and the Quest for Pakistan in Late Colonial North India—, written in 2015 by one Venkat Dhulipala and book-reviews thereof. There is a potential article to be written about the book but this is not it.
The book has been subject to harsh criticism from a variety of quarters but not unsurprisingly, Dhulipala believes all of them (Faisal Devji, Barbara D. Metcalf, Yasmin Khan, and Manan Ahmed Asif) to be in the wrong and peddling half-truths, lies and distortions. In summary, we are looking at a revolutionary fringe work - if it were not, the concept might have stood a chance of being notable in itself.TrangaBellam (talk) 16:59, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Silver seren an in-depth before was done alright, I mass nominated 6 articles in all and four have already been deleted. But if you can show me the sources that meet requirements which are outlined in GNG that show notability for any of the remainder I’d be happy to see them. Celestina007 (talk) 17:16, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Have you looked at the sources that TJMSmith presented up above? Also, sorry, but MER-C's actions were completely out of line and I'm tempted to go to ANI over this. Trying to use the G5's as an argument is completely inappropriate. Especially since G5 is a worthless CSD claim. SilverserenC 18:32, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Silver seren, feel free to, but I’m afraid you’be inundated with clarifications on how CSD G5's work. Furthermore all sources provided by TJSmith are about this very individual “Victory Obasi” which Missvain already stated expressly should be deleted, now let us analyze the three sources TJSmith pointed to, this doesn’t meet in-depth SIGCOV thus doesn’t agree with the tenets of GNG that requires in-depth significant coverage. The second second source is pre packaged pr sponsored post. Their third and last source is indeed a fair piece but not only isn’t insufficient to establish notability SIGCOV still remains a problem, but a decent piece all the same, so in all we only have one semi good piece so as aforementioned remains insufficient.

@JoelleJay, thank you for your input @Silver seren, above is an example of how you may make an argument without name calling or being rude, @JoelleJay, the crux of the article's deletion is that it is G5 eligible as it was created in violation of an ban/block, the article creator should never have created the articles in the first place. Your analysis on the sources is quite impressive for someone who I presume is not an expert in with Nigerian sources, from your analysis above you see how they don’t meet GNG, which requires in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject, thus, a major GNG fail, I also note you claim to have seen other sources, if yes, then if you could point me to the sources which give her in-depth significant coverage and are independent of her id be happy to see them and analyze them for you after this AFD is closed. You can show me the sources on my TP and i’d happy to do a source analysis. Celestina007 (talk) 22:40, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Celestina, I should have phrased my last sentence more carefully. I haven't looked for or found other sources for Kiekie, I just came to the conclusion that she probably has more and better coverage based on my assessment of the sources already mentioned in this discussion. I know the article has already been G5'd, but figured I would add to what others had said about Kiekie's notability in case anyone was thinking about recreating the article. JoelleJay (talk) 23:11, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
JoelleJay, First, I believe I should begin by thanking and appreciating your polite tone, yes it has been G5'ed and correctly so, you are correct, anyone but the banned editor evading a block can always recreate the article when the subject becomes notable. Infact I believe TonyBallioni was being too modest and kind when they undid their speedy close, as this whole AFD can be speedied under the grounds of G5. Celestina007 (talk) 00:15, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's nice that your argument is that G5 supersedes any deletion discussion. Meaning that any G5 deleted articles can be undeleted as a draft and then reposted as a mainspace article without any changes whatsoever needing to be made and with the editor taking responsibility for the article. With no complications of there being prior deletion discussions in the way. Thank you. It makes things easier. SilverserenC 01:59, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus has been established via discussion at WP:PLANTS and previous AfDs/PRODs that individual cultivars are not presumed notable in the same way as natural species, and must meet GNG to have a standalone article. Database and commercial catalog entries are not considered sufficient for this purpose.

The Stuart entry is no more than a few sentences. I found no coverage of this plant that meets all 3 of criteria of being significant independent and reliable. ♠PMC(talk) 05:18, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • I have no objection to the article having information about its cultivars in general, but my concern with upmerging every non-notable cultivar is the difficulty of establishing an objective criteria for what should be included or not. As there are hundreds of Buddleja cultivars, if we don't have some kind of strict criteria, the article risks becoming overloaded with information about non-notable subtopics. ♠PMC(talk) 01:13, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Caleb Stanford, the consensus at the WT:PLANTS discussion was not to merge, that is an inaccurate reading. I hope that the closer reads that discussion to confirm that. There are literally hundreds of named Buddleja cultivars per species including hybrids, so merging any of these articles to the parent would be lending totally undue importance to potentially a ton of content about non-notable topics (and inviting the placement of more). ♠PMC(talk) 06:27, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Here is where I found the clearest consensus. Change vote to delete based on the number of cultivars in question. Might I suggest that maybe the parent article should at least have a plain list of all the cultivars even if there are hundreds, but nothing more expansive? Caleb Stanford (talk) 03:49, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
That is a terrible idea and was soundly rejected as an option in that WT:PLANTS discussion. I'm not sure you have a solid understanding of the amount of scientific rigor applied to cultivars and their naming - it's none. Cultivars can be anything from long-term commercial products to something some hobbyist bred in their backyard one day for funsies and slapped a name on. Listing potentially dozens of non-notable entries at each parent species article gives them WP:UNDUE prominence and takes the focus off the encyclopedic content that actually serves readers. What does the audience learn about the plant species from a plain list of cultivar names? Nothing, except that some of them are silly.
(Side note - I put a strike through your original merge vote so it's more clear for the closer that you changed to delete). ♠PMC(talk) 04:51, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. While this article hasn't been deleted, dlthwave's comments about mass-creation of poor quality stubs is absolutely correct and a reflection of current sentiment (as previously demonstrated at ANI quite recently).

A user has created over 400 geo articles with the same set of sources, using the same template with only slight variations. Sources such as census tables and the distance to the nearest railroad bot are insufficient to establish GNG, so we're left with the question of whether a rural locality counts as a legally recognized populated place. I'm nominating this one partly as a test to see whether a mass TNT deletion is in order. –dlthewave 04:02, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This user must stop creating low-quality stubs immediately. Per Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)/Archive_66#Automated_creation_of_stubs, this "large-scale semi-/automated article creation task" requires a BRFA. I do not believe that there is a consensus that we want mass-creation of pages for places with 1 person.

You do not have elementary respect for the work of other people in Wikipedia. You see a similar page without seeing working hours that have been devoted to their creation. Try some of these articles to read, check sources, then you will see differences and you may understand why it could not create a bot. Creating a few pages a day you call mass? A bot would do it in a few minutes, not in a few months. If my logical arguments do not impress you, then do not limit yourself and apply to pick up my autopatrolled or immediately to block my account. Paranoic deleting action for over 420 articles? If English GNG allows the existence of small villages, in which there are often more houses than residents, I do not understand your campaign. Instead of geographical data, you expect historical essays with Napoleon in the background, letters of famous people who were born there or maybe curiosities like finding mammoth bone? With these places there are no sources on such topics, and this is the most important in every encyclopedia. ThWiki1910 08:25, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
ThWiki1910, are you familiar with our guideline on villages WP:GEOLAND? We do allow articles on small villages, but only if they A) are "legally recognized" (i.e. incorporated/part of the area's administrative structure) or B) have significant coverage to meet WP:GNG. So yes, we do require more than just geographic data to meet these requirements. If sufficient sourcing does not exist, then we do not create an article on the topic. –dlthewave 17:09, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
WP:GEOLAND: Populated, legally recognized places... – all localities whose my articles concerned meet this most important condition. They are listed in the records of administrative units (they have an OKATO ID given). This is obvious. ThWiki1910 23:40, 7 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If I understand correctly, Litva is not its own administrative unit but rather is a rural locality governed by the Bolshezhirovsky selsoviet. Most national geographic databases such as OKATO will assign identification numbers to all sorts of villages, localities, etc. regardless of administrative status, but we typically do not accept this alone as legal recognition. I'm having difficulty accessing OKATO so would you be willing to clarify how the database describes Litva? –dlthewave 02:57, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
An older identifier is OKTMO. OKATO is a newer, but both identifiers are interrelated (a bit like Celsius and Fahrenheit degrees). I have a difficulty to put a link to OKATO in infobox, because it is converted (in a "magical" way) on OKTMO. If Infobox showed OKATO, the link to the database would be: OKATO 38244831015. For OKTMO is: OKTMO 38644412316. Exchange OKATO to OKTMO. My all articles have sources (links): to selsovjet (the unit where the rural locality is situated), to real estate report, to postcode... What do you want more? After your correction, Litva, Kursk Oblast is only suitable for deleting – one line. Why? Because you can not admit your mistake? Be serious. I am. ThWiki1910 1:20, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for clarifying OKATO/OKTMO. I'm not seeing anything in the database entry that establishes this as a legally recognized settlement. The problem with the other information you added is that it is not specific to Litva. Yes, the selsoviet has a website with a subpage for Bolshezhirovsky village council, but nothing about Litva. Postcode 307114 encompasses several selo, and the webpage does not mention Litva. Likewise, the railway page lists a station that is quite a distance away and again makes no mention of Litva. This brings us to the real estate report. This is just an a cadastral property ownership map which does nothing to establish notability. You're right: After we strip away the superfluous "cruft", there's not really anything left that could justify having an article.
What we need is significant coverage, or actual in-depth prose that somebody wrote about Litva, from multiple sources. Something that we could use to write an article that covers more than just calculated statistics. Without that, we simply can't have an article, no matter how much work you put into it. –dlthewave 13:23, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Who "we"? More like you yourself, unable to admit to being wrong. And did you understand this much? Are you suggesting that this locality (khutor) does not exist just because you cannot deal with sources in Russian? Was it really so difficult for you to find, for example, this document (pdf) on the website of selsoviet? You deleted almost the entire article without checking the link "Real estate report: Litva" because what? Don't you know that a postcode usually covers several localities? The fact that an idiot, using the GNIS database, treated the many mills as settlements, should affect the deletion of one in the series of full-fledged articles on real localities in Russia? So many explanations and still the same? Having fun? You are not really waiting for what I will write, so I inform you that all my articles I create, like "Litva, Kursk Oblast" (after your "corrections", it's simply trash), have reliable sources. If you do not agree with this, I only wish you (and your two loyal friends) a pleasant deletion of over 400 articles. ThWiki1910 0:35, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
Agree with DLthewave, a cadastral survey merely documents land ownership, it says nothing really about the settlement itself. These do not appear to be “fully fledged articles”, instead they appear to be bare listings padded out with information that is not actually about the settlement. Advise the creator to look more at news media coverage, book coverage (particularly histories), academic coverage and so-forth. The temptation to go through a database and create hundreds of basically-identical articles that say nothing really about the subject should be avoided.

What's your opinion on the quality of the references, though? Some of them don't seem to actually mention Litva. –dlthewave 05:29, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm struggling a bit, I must admit, as I'm not able to open some of them, and I'm v poor at anything in Cyrillic. However, this (pointed at above by User:ThWiki1910) is an official document of the relevant selsoviet and confirms that the settlement of Litva is part of it. I can't access the census report but am more than happy to trust SportingFlyer's statement above that it includes Litva. That's enough for a Keep on the present footing. (There's a fundamental problem with the term "legally-recognised", which is far too vague to be of any use outside the US - in any other context it just doesn't equate to "self-governing administrative unit", although it seems that many editors (as above) want it to mean that: it doesn't, without a very full discussion which has not taken place).The alternative solution here would surely be an article on the Bolshezhirovsky Selsoviet listing the component khutors to which this and the other articles cd redirect.

While waiting for a reply from Tamingimpala, which it seems may be a long time coming, I'll add that the sources include hardcopy ones, which I see no reason to doubt are bona fide official sources. As above, the article contains what is required by WP:GEOLAND, which is to say, confirmation of legal recognition and verification that it's a populated settlement.

PROD declined due to declined PROD from 2012. Consensus has been established via discussion at WP:PLANTS and previous AfDs/PRODs that individual cultivars are not presumed notable in the same way as natural species, and must meet GNG to have a standalone article. Database and commercial catalog entries are not considered sufficient for this purpose.

The Hatch book is a comprehensive work that attempts to compile and list all cultivars. Snippet view shows that it generally spends about a sentence or two on them at most so I consider it database-equivalent as it is not selective. I found no independent significant coverage of this cultivar (searches in Stuart & Trees & Shrubs both negative).

At the time of the 2012 de-PROD, article creator even stated "Many cultivars are of obscure origin, and poorly referenced in literature." - in other words, even the creator knew there was no sourcing. ♠PMC(talk) 04:28, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • My concern about redirecting vs deleting is that since the cultivars are non-notable, they shouldn't be mentioned at the species article, and it's generally frowned on to have redirects that aren't mentioned in the target article. ♠PMC(talk) 10:32, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually a note to the closer since I made the above comment in an apparent brain-fart state - RD to B. globosa would be totally incorrect for this one as it's a hybrid of B. fallowiana and B. davidii. Closing as redirect to either would be technically not feasible as it can't be redirected to two places, and there's no metric for determining which species would be more "primary" to redirect to. ♠PMC(talk) 05:02, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • The consensus at the WT:PLANTS discussion was not to merge, that is an inaccurate reading. I hope that the closer reads that discussion to confirm that. There are literally hundreds of named Buddleja cultivars per species including hybrids, so merging any of these articles to the parent would be lending totally undue importance to potentially a ton of content about non-notable topics. ♠PMC(talk) 06:27, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There are four citations on the page and none of them mention any battle, the incident Rajaram looting the tomb of Akbar is made into a battle page where no battle was fought. I searched for it in many later mughal history books and on google books too but I can't find any source mentioning this battle. It was also created by a single purpose sockpuppet who has been blocked indefinitely. Hiensrt (talk) 06:45, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but the link directly takes us to the search term which do mention looting of Akbar's tomb at Sikandra but no battle. And these are the links that were provided by the creator of the article, so this is what he had.Hiensrt (talk) 08:39, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Irrespective of the article's title, the article's content is about the desecration of Akbar's tomb, which is a notable as well as a historically important event. So the page should be moved to Desecration of Akbar's tomb, as the sources use exactly this or a similar title while describing this incident.
Note that Rajaram actually attacked the site of Akbar's tomb, i.e. Sikandara, thrice, and two of his attacks were specifically to desecrate the Akbar's tomb. Also, he did lose 400 men in confrontation with the imperial force during one of these attacks. And we do need to mention those failed attempts in the article, as they are relevant to the topic. It seems the page creator relied on the snippet views available at Google Books, which resulted in the misrepresentation of a few details as well as the article's wrong title. Anyway, here are a few sources giving a full account of Rajaram's desecration of Akbar's tomb:
quotation

... In 1685, Rajaram, a Jat zamindar at Sinsini, eighty kilometres west of Agra, strengthened a strongly defended fortress of hardened mud. Shielded by difficult terrain and bamboo/scrub forests these forts could beat off all but the most determined assaults. Already refusing to pay the revenue, Rajaram led his jat clansmen to plunder traffic on the royal road. They even attempted to enter Sikandra to despoil Akbar's tomb, but were driven back by the faujdar. ...

In late 1687, Aurangzeb sent Bidar Bakht, his young grandson, north with troops to suppress the Jats. In the interim the newly appointed governor of the Punjab, Mahabat Khan, a former Hyderabad officer, had encamped near Sikandra on the Yumuna river. The Jats boldly attacked his camp in force and only retired after losing four hundred casualties.

Rajaram's Jats outmaneuvered the local imperial forces and occupied Sikandra where they succeeded in looting Akbar's tomb. According to Manucci:40
Already angered by the demands of the governors and faujdars for revenue, a great number of them [Jats] assembled and marched to the mausoleum of that great conqueror Akbar. Against him living they could effect nothing; they therefore wreaked vengeance on his sepulchre. They began their pillage by breaking in the great gates of bronze which it had, robbing the valuable precious stones and plates ... of gold and silver, and destroying what they were not able to carry away. Dragging out the bones of Akbar, they threw them angrily into the fire and burnt them.

Whether the Jats actually seized Akbar's remains, the desecration of the tomb was as Manucci puts it "the greatest affront possible to the house and lineage of Taimur-i lang (Timur)."

quotation

... Early in 1688, Raja Ram attacked Mahabat Khan, who on his way to Lahore was encamped near Sikandara. A fierce fight ensued in which Raja Ram was finally overpowered and driven back after losing 400 men. The casualties on the other side included 150 dead and 40 wounded.23

After a short while, Raja Ram reappeared at Sikandara and taking advantage of the delay in coming of Shaista Khan, the governor-designate of Agra, he attacked and plundered Akbar's mausoleum. The Jat leader carried away the precious articles of gold and silver, carpets, lamps, etc. and destroyed what he could not carry. According to Manucci the Jats dragged out the bones of Akbar, threw them angrily into fire and burnt them. Muhammad Baqa (the Naib of Khan-i-Jahan) who was then at Agra, did nothing to frustrate the rebels. As a punishment, therefore, his mansab was reduced by 500 and that of Khan-i-Jahan by 1000 sawars.24 The Jats also ransacked the villages, set aside for the support of Taj Mahal. Some Jats ravaged the environs of Khurja, while others captured the local Mughal officers at Palwal.25

One noteworthy fact is that the local Mughal officials and soldiers in general, winked at the disobedience of the Jats and even secretly entered into collusion with them to share the booty grabbed by them.26 It is also to be noted that Muhammad Baqa, the deputy of Khan-i-Jahan at Agra, had remained inactive while Raja Ram robbed Akbar's tomb. This exasperated Aurangzeb and he reduced the deputy's Mansab by 500 and that of Khan-i-Jahan by 1000 sawars.27 Meanwhile, the daring and audacity of the Jats alarmed Aurangzeb and he ordered Raja Ram Singh (who was at Kabul) to chastise Raja Ram. But due to his sudden death the Raja could not resume his charge.28

quotation

... Mir Ibrahim, newly entitled Mahabat Khan who was then encamped near Sikandara on the banks of the Jamuna, while on his way to Punjab to take charge of his viceroyalty was attacked by Rajaram. But Rajaram was repulsed, after a long and stubborn fight, with the loss of 400 men, while the Mughals loss was 190 killed and wounded. Rajaram soon returned to the scene, and profiting by the delay in coming of Shaista Khan, the new subehdar of Agra, plundered Akbar's tomb, taking away its carpets, gold and silver vessels and lamp, etc. and damaging the building. Khan i-Jahan's deputy (naib), Muhammad Waqa, did nothing to check him.3 They also set on fire the villages which had been assigned for the maintenance of Taj Mahal.4 Reports were reaching the court daily that a group of Jats had plundered the pargana of Khurja and arrested the thanedar of Palwal.5
The plundering of Akbar's tomb, and the parganas of Khurja and Palwal caused great concern to Aurangzeb. He angrily reduced Khan- i Jahan's mansab,1 and appointed Raja Ram Singh of Amber as faujdar of Mathura to crush Rajaram Jat.2 The vakil at the Mughal court requested the Maharaja to reach Mathura as early as possible, because the Jats menace had become so great that even the fort of Ranthambhore and the territorial integrity of Amber (Jaipur) State was threatened.3 Apart from this Ghalib Beg was sent to establish some thanas in the Mathura area. It is quite clear that the Jat uprising effected not only the narrow limits of Brij, but the areas right from the Duab to Ranthambhore. The Jats in this entire area, it seems, were on the move. But before Raja Ram Singh of Amber could reach the disturbed area, he passed away.4

[Few details about the second and the third sources quoted above: Dr. Girish Chandra Dwivedi served as head of the History Department at Kashi Vidyapith. And his above book is based on his PhD thesis prepared under the personal supervision of historian Ishwari Prasad. The book is probably the most in-depth source about the Jats' role in the Mughal Empire. Unsurprisingly, multiple historians specialising/knowledgeable in the Indian history of that era – e.g. Irfan Habib,[1] Eugenia Vanina,[2] Shail Mayaram[3], etc. – suggest/recommend it. Similarly, the book of Dr. Ram Pande is also based on his accepted PhD thesis (see here), which he prepared under the supervision of historian Arthur Llewellyn Basham, and is suggested by Eugenia Vanina.[2]]
As far as the historical importance of this event is concerned, multiple prominent subject experts, including the historians John F. Richards[4] and Catherine B. Asher,[5] describe it as an affront to the Mughal empire. This event also escalated the Jat-Mughal confrontations to a different level, as from here onwards, Mughals also summoned Kachhwaha rulers of Amber (Jaipur) to subdue Jats.
Finally, the weird act of burning Akbar's remains sounds like the last rights performed among Hindus. And it does have a Hindu connection: this was done to avenge Akbar's matrimonial alliances with Hindu women![6][7] Unsurprisingly, scholars cite it as a notable example among the notorious ones of its kind.[8]

Per WP:Articles for deletion/List of deaths due to COVID-19 in South Africa. There is no need to have country-specific articles pertaining to notable COVID-19 deaths. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 02:20, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand the second sentence? Each person on the list is notable, and does already have their own article. The purpose of list articles is to make information by subject easily accessible. We have List of sovereign states in spite of each state already being notable and having its own article, because accessing that information in one place is useful, as here. Greenman (talk) 08:53, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Supercopone@, I strongly disagree that it "serves zero purpose" as it was a fork of the Covid-19 pandemic in South Africa article. The list existed there and it was forked as the original article started getting too long.--Discott (talk) 16:16, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A quick additional note: the original argument that the article is "Redundant" is no longer the case as the original COVID-19 in South Africa article is now too long to support this list being hosted on that article thereby supporting the forking of this to a new list article.--Discott (talk) 16:23, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Most don't care about people they have never heard of, so splitting by country makes more sense. That's a discussion for a talk page though. If people decide to do it by year instead, then this can be turned into a redirect later on. Dream Focus 03:42, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

List fails WP:GNG and WP:LISTPURP. To the best of my knowledge, none of the provided sources have discussed the topic as a group or set, and though it should be noted that I do not have access to all of them, no editor has asserted that they do contain such coverage. Further, a WP:BEFORE search has not turned up any such coverage in reliable sources.

There has been coverage of potential subsets of the list as a group or set, in particular the destruction of Armenian cultural legacy, and if there was coverage of the destruction of Azerbaijani cultural legacy it would be appropriate to group the two lists under WP:NPOV, but as with the broader topic I have been unable to identify such sources, and it appears other editors have also been unable to do so.

The list as it stands is also largely incoherent, with elements such as a "Small mosque in Armenia", without any additional details to its identification, being included. While some of this can be corrected under WP:DUE, most of it would, in the absence of reliable sources, require WP:OR to correct, in order to allow us to determine an appropriate scope of the list and criteria for inclusion.

Note: Article was nominated for deletion two months ago, with a result of "no consensus".

Buddleja globosa 'Lemon Ball'[edit]

Consensus has been established via discussion at WP:PLANTS and previous AfDs/PRODs that individual cultivars are not presumed notable in the same way as natural species, and must meet GNG to have a standalone article. Database and commercial catalog entries (such as the citation to Buddleja List 2011-2012 Longstock Park Nursery) are not considered sufficient for this purpose.

I found no significant independent coverage of this cultivar. The content at Trees and Shrubs Online is a scant few sentences, and the entry in Stuart is little more. Aside from that, all hits I found were trivial mentions or commercial listings. There is not enough here to substantiate a GNG pass. ♠PMC(talk) 04:48, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • My concern about redirecting vs deleting is that since the cultivars are non-notable, they shouldn't be mentioned at the species article, and it's generally frowned on to have redirects that aren't mentioned in the target article. ♠PMC(talk) 10:32, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Agreed, should not be redirected. Anyone googling for Buddleja globosa Lemon Ball will automatically find the potential redirect target anyway, and if we do redirects for every non-notable variety of any ornamental plant we're going to have a truly enormous number of redirects with no useful value. Elemimele (talk) 12:04, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The consensus at the WT:PLANTS discussion was not to merge, that is an inaccurate reading. I hope that the closer reads that discussion to confirm that. There are literally hundreds of named Buddleja cultivars per species including hybrids, so merging any of these articles to the parent would be lending totally undue importance to potentially a ton of content about non-notable topics. ♠PMC(talk) 06:28, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Web3[edit]

Web3 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Various issues:

  1. Although there are a handful of sources that use the word "web3", coverage is essentially insubstantial or speculative, and some sources are not reliable. We are left only with sources that say "web3" but do not give a definition, actively say that it isn't something that exists and isn't well-defined, and sources that rely primarily on a non-independent source.
  1. With little more than speculation to source this article, the article we have relies for its notability almost completely on the fact that some people are talking about future plans. This would seem to me to be a concern re. WP:CRYSTAL, particularly points 2 and 5. With no clear definition of "Web3 technologies" other than as a synonym for either DAOs or public blockchains more generally, what remains is either product announcements and rumours (i.e. speculation as to companies' future definition, development, and use of the technology) or merely the next iteration of a systematic name.
  2. This article makes leaps in its citations that make me suspect its writing is not documentary, but rather participates in a desire to will "web3" into existence. The reference to the sentence "self-sovereign identity allows users to identify themselves without relying on an authentication system such as OAuth..." [29] describes how in theory Bitcoin and Ethereum could provide cross-platform identity services, not a thing called web3. More, this kind of use of Bitcoin and Ethereum is comparatively rare in my experience, and their prevalence is not supported in the reference, which, again, is a marketing blog.
  3. The contents of the "concept" section summarize that this emerging technology has not really emerged yet, and therefore it is WP:TOOSOON to have an article on it.
  4. What is left once the speculation and unrelated information is stripped away is an article about how some people are saying "web3" while they say "blockchain", and not much more. It's fairly clear that unless and until the term enters broad enough use that a widely-accepted definition emerges (and it is not certain that it ever will), this cannot develop into a thorough article. We ought to delete it. FalconK (talk) 04:52, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As mentioned, an ambiguous term, but the article is very useful as orientation for the reader. I came here due to some 'news' wanting to know what the hubbub was about. The article helped, even if the term may be bull. Please distinguish between BS and a needed article _about_ BS. The latter can be very useful. Shenme (talk) 04:31, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As I stated earlier on the WikiProject Golf talkpage, this article strikes me as an obvious example of WP:OR and "synthesis." While a number of reliable third-party sources are used, I believe they have been "synthesized" to create an entirely new, "original" page. From my research, I have not found anything on the internet that could be used as direct source for this article. In addition, the author of List of Canadian winners on the PGA and LPGA Tours has yet to provide one.

I would like to hear opinions from other members below.

Searching online for this train, I'm unable to find any significant coverage of this model outside of Wikipedia itself (if you can call this stub significant coverage). I'd expect coverage to be online, since the article says the train only has been built since 2019. As a result, this fails WP:GNG. Per WP:NPRODUCT, I propose that this article be redirected to Progress Rail, which appears to be the company most closely associated with this product, if there is a source that can be used to verify that this model of locomotive actually exists. If such a source cannot be found, deletion would be appropriate. — Mhawk10 (talk) 04:14, 11 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This was a contested PROD due to it having reviews. This film fails to meet the required criteria in WP:NFILM. The reviews are by unknown critics as in there is no identified author for the 2 provided. I could not find any better. There is no indication of it even being close to meeting any other of the criteria. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 01:59, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The criteria for reviews to be accepted towards WP:NFILM is not that it comes from a reliable source but from a nationally known critic, without an actual byline we can't confirm this. Reviews in themselves are not reliable sources as they are opinion pieces. This negates both the Filmthreat and TVGuide reviews as we have no way to know who actually wrote them, the same way we would negate any other news source without an identified author. The Rotten Tomatoes review is actually this one and I would accept that as being potentially a nationally known critic. That only leaves us with one acceptable review.
