Delete per nom, this page is outdated and redundant, and future infrastructure policies can be better addressed in articles about the specific legislation. Carguychris (talk) 21:00, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge anything that is not redundant to Build Back Better Plan. I wouldn't be against deletion as the specific infrastructure plan was established in Build Back Better Plan. There is the Build Back Better Act which is the initial action of the plan – the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act is the actual action of establishing new infrastructure and transportation policies. I'm suggesting the redirect to the plan as it seems to be more about the overall policy during Biden's term. – The Grid (talk) 20:54, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as suggested by User:The Grid. This article is unnecessary (and a potential content fork) because the plan already has a name and appropriate article (Build Back Better Plan). If nothing needs to be merged, this title seems a possible search term and might be redirected to the same location. BusterD (talk) 23:03, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment It might make more sense to cover an annual lecture series in an article on the person it was named for, or the society that hosts it. XOR'easter (talk) 02:52, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per currently available sourcing. Notability certainly not demonstrated in the article, and I can't find substantial further coverage either. Hutchinson himself seems to be a likely NPROF candidate, but in absence of that article as a merge target, this should probably be deleted. (As an aside, I am finding at least two other and unrelated "Hutchinson lectures" [1][2](in Economics and Pharmacy) that are longer-running and might have a better claim to the primary topic - disambiguation would be needed.) --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 17:07, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I concur that Hutchinson himself is a likely candidate for passing WP:PROF, though soil mechanics and civil engineering aren't my field, and he was active just long enough ago that online material might be tricky to dig up. I'd encourage the creator of this page to start a draft biography of him at Draft:John N. Hutchinson; information about this lecture series could be included there, e.g., as part of a "Legacy" section. XOR'easter (talk) 21:27, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete From looking over this it seems like an argument could made for John Hutchinson to have an article, but the Hutchinson lecture clearly isn't notable enough on it's own to warrant one. There's no reason it can't be mentioned in an article for John Hutchinson if one is ever created though. --Adamant1 (talk) 15:27, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Having considered the recent discussion of this article, I see two reasons why this article should not exist as it is. In the first place, as pointed out in the discussion, this is an attractive nuisance for WP:BLPCRIME violations. Second, the notion of such a list is a case of WP:RECENTISM. It seems quite likely that this will fairly quickly become routine (or get banned), so while one could reasonably hold the first examples notable in some sense, what has now (judging from the number of entries) started to become commonplace is no longer notable, anymore than the use of fingerprinting, telegraph, police cars, or any other such technology remains eternally noteworthy. Mangoe (talk) 23:22, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
OpposeRename - Many articles attract nuisance policy violators. That's no reason to delete an article that is notable and well sourced. There are other ways to deal with policy violators. Regarding WP:RECENTISM, we are not in the business of predicting the future. At this time it's not commonplace, and we don't know if or when it will be. So we deal with that if the size of the article becomes unmanageable. Sundayclose (talk) 23:31, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
First, you are predicting the future, by saying that it will forever be notable to record this. Second, well-sourcing is not the issue: identifying people simply because they are suspects is. Mangoe (talk) 23:41, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Please don't put words in my mouth. I didn't say it will be "forever notable". I said it's notable now. I didn't say that well-sourcing is the issue here. I said there's no need to delete an article that is notable and well sourced simply because it attracts policy violators. I will agree to renaming the article to "List of people convicted of crimes identified with GEDmatch". That takes care of the BLP problem if it's enforced, which should be the case for all articles. Sundayclose (talk) 23:49, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
None of the sourcing supports that the topic "list of suspects (or people convicted) using GEDmatch" is notable. It's just articles, often reprinted press releases, saying it was used. Just because a method is notable does not mean a list of every time it's used is notable. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:01, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Please tone down the hyperbole. It doesn't help your argument. It's simply not true that none of the sourcing supports conviction. Now you are the one diverting the argument to sourcing. If the title is changed, we can remove the entries that are not adequately sourced. Look, you are perfectly entitled to nominate for deletion. But it's not necessary to pummel those who oppose your nomination with arguments that aren't related to your reasons for nomination. If you continue that it's considered WP:DISRUPTIVE. Let the consensus process proceed.Sundayclose (talk) 00:07, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't nominate it, and it was a single reply. What I said is that none of the sources establish the topic as a whole as notable, not that there were no sources for convictions. Perhaps you're conflating my statements with Mangoe's? ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:11, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Actually you're right, I carelessly didn't notice who made the edit. Apologies. But my comment about sourcing still stands. It's not necessary that the notability of an article be established by a source. There are guidelines and policies to determine notability; or it's done by consensus. Sundayclose (talk) 00:13, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or merge BLP compliant material into articles dealing with the cases or the companies that did the investigations. Maintaining a list of suspects identified with an investigatory method will never be BLP compliant, and such a list isn't encyclopedic. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:46, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as a general violation of BLPCRIME, but after a TNT approach, would be appropriate to recreate based strictly on those convicted of crimes due to GEDmatch. --Masem (t) 13:32, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Masem: In general I agree with recreating with only those convicted. But instead of TNT, is there a problem with removing those who are not reliably sourced as convicted, then renaming the article? That's what I proposed above. Thanks. Sundayclose (talk) 15:16, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Masem, if you look at the article now, you'll see how little of the content was compliant. At this point I don't think there is enough to support a list as it would be easy enough to merge the remaining prose into the related articles.

* Comment there is a misunderstanding about articles like this, resulting from language differences. The same thing is happening at Askari,_Lahore. These are not housing associations, or housing authorities in the sense that the terms are used in the US or UK. They are basically regions of a city. They should be assessed as locations in which people live, not as companies or organisations. I don't know what makes a region of a city sufficiently notable to have an article, but since we accept articles on random uninhabited crossroads in the US provided someone can dredge up a newspaper that indicates there was once a house there, it seems a bit arbitrary to refuse an article on a thriving suburb of a major city. On the other hand, these suburbs tend to generate an awful lot of adverts for property-for-sale, and newspaper articles that mention them in passing as the location where something happened, but very little else, so I'm not surprised the referencing is awful. Elemimele (talk) 06:56, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
See WP:GEOLAND. Legally recognized places are usually presumed to be notable, even if they have little to no population. Populated places without legal recognition (including housing developments) are considered on a case-by-case basis in accordance with WP:GNG. I cannot find any evidence that this is a legally recognized place. Assuming that it lacks legal recognition, the provided sources certainly do not pass WP:GNG. WP:NPLACE has more info. —ScottyWong— 07:53, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete failed to prove notability ... just Promotional article on a Pakistani real estate website and most of links are dead Wikisuper945Talk Here 02:15, 12 November 2021 (IST)
Keep; I'm striking my previous comment because despite the ambiguity between the name of the organisation that ran the development, and the subsequent development as a place where people live, in this case there is copious independent, in-depth coverage of the DHA (in the sense of a developer rather than the development) and its activities, as well as firm evidence that news sources regard "DHA Lahore" as a genuine location. In fact the faintest attempt at a BEFORE would have uncovered this lot. Most of it is extremely negative about the DHA, so the article needs a massive re-write, and isn't going to be popular with DHA's developers, but AfD is famously not clean-up. We don't delete articles about subjects where sources are clearly available:
ANI news having an in-depth moan at army land-grabbing under the auspices of the DHA [[3]]
The international News, Pakistan, similarly reporting in depth on a high-court case concerning the DHA's activities in Lahore [[4]]
Another newspaper's report on the organisers of DHA attempting to coerce residents of the Lahore DHA area into boycotting Dawn newspaper for its reporting of the London Bridge knife attacks: [[6]]
same story reported differently by different people at [[7]]
the Friday times reporting, in depth, no how the DHA Lahore project got nicked off a previous independent housing association: [[8]]
Evidence that DHA Lahore is seen by local media as a defined region in which people live and do things (in this case, unfortunately, strangle people) [[9]]
None of these sources establish notability per WP:GNG. I'll explain why for each of the sources that you just posted above:
This source is primarily about the real estate development company, Defence Housing Authority, not the housing development, Defence Housing Authority, Lahore.
This source is primarily about the real estate development company, Defence Housing Authority, not the housing development, Defence Housing Authority, Lahore.
A very short article that proves that the housing development exists, but does not provide significant coverage as required by GNG.
This source is primarily about a local newspaper, not the housing development.
This 4-sentence article is primarily about a local newspaper, not the housing development.
This source is primarily about the real estate development company, Defence Housing Authority, not the housing development, Defence Housing Authority, Lahore.
This source is primarily about a crime committed in the neighborhood, not the housing development itself.
This source is primarily about a crime committed in the neighborhood, not the housing development itself.
This source is primarily about a crime committed in the neighborhood, not the housing development itself.
Again, assuming that this housing development is not a legally recognized place, it needs to satisfy GNG. GNG requires significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources that are independent of the subject. The sources you provided absolutely prove that the housing development exists. But, proving existence is different that proving notability. To establish notability, you'd need to provide multiple, reliable, independent sources that are primarily about the housing development itself, that describe its history and significance in detail. None of the sources in the article or in this discussion meet that requirement. The real estate development company that built this housing development is a different topic than the housing development itself. That company already has its own article: Defence Housing Authority. Some of the sources you provided above would certainly establish the notability of that company. But, they don't establish the notability of the housing development, which is the subject of this article. —ScottyWong— 16:33, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think we need to decide what the article is supposed to be about. If it's about a region of Lahore, my reply is this: the last 3 sources indicate nothing more than that local people and news sources regard "DHA Lahore" as the identity of a legitimate suburb. The debate is whether a suburb is sufficiently important to be notable. Brooklyn is; I'm quite happy to accept that DHA Lahore isn't. If the article is supposed to be about the DHA as an organisation that builds estates, specifically its activities in Lahore (and the article currently begins "The Defence Housing Authority, Lahore (DHA Lahore) (Urdu: اختیاریہَ دفاعی اقامت کاری ، لاہور) is a housing society located in Lahore") then the remainder of the articles all relate not to DHAs across Pakistan but DHA Lahore. I checked each one. All go into the DHA Lahore estate's development in depth (i.e. DHA Lahore is the main subject of every article). The two that relate to the newspaper are not primarily about the newspaper (that is a misrepresentation of them); they describe how DHA Lahore (management) attempted to suppress the newspaper in the DHA Lahore development, reflecting far more on the developers than the newspaper. I'm not going to argue this indefinitely, I couldn't care two hoots whether the article is kept or deleted, but deletion should be on good grounds, not mere determination to delete. I agree that the current article is definitely lopsided and promotional, and therefore problematic. Elemimele (talk) 17:17, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
In my opinion, sources that establish the notability of the housing development would cover things like the history of the development, how it was designed and built, its significance within Lahore, its unique geographical features, its notable residents, notable parks or monuments in the area, etc., etc., etc. This article is not about the company that built the development; we already have a separate article on them. You're correct that many of the sources you posted absolutely provide evidence that the development exists, and even evidence that people commonly refer to this region as DHA Lahore. However, that is not evidence that this region is legally recognized as DHA Lahore, nor is it evidence that this region of the city is notable per WP:GNG, in my opinion. Others can examine these sources and decide for themselves. —ScottyWong— 18:52, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
fair enough! I'll leave my "vote" but I'm fine about being over-ruled, I'm still a beginner at this! It's certainly true that the sources end up falling in one of a handful of rather sad categories: scandals about the DHA developers; newspaper reports of crimes committed in the areas; non-independent items on contracts/planning; and copious estate agents' adverts. Elemimele (talk) 19:05, 12 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep One can see in the 'See also' section of the above article, there are many large suburban neighbourhood towns with similar names in almost all major cities of Pakistan. To help solve the confusion around misnaming this heavily populated town – and it is surely a large middle-class town locality, NOT a real estate development entity. Most people in Pakistan know this, not to mention the big populations that actually live in these towns all across Pakistan. I just now found many newspaper articles to help support the Notability of this town. I'll add these newspaper references tomorrow morning, if given a chance. Ngrewal1 (talk) 02:53, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment It's sometimes amusing and surprising to me, how these language issues or misnaming a town by town authorities whose primary language is not English, and it all snowballs into big discussions such as above on Wikipedia. Ngrewal1 (talk) 03:15, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Added 6 new references today to the above article, removed all promotional websites and their references and cleaned up the article. Now it has References from a News agency from India, 3 major newspapers of Pakistan and 1 reference from the Government of Punjab, Pakistan. Used some newspaper references listed above by Elemimele also. Passes WP:GEOLAND now. In my view, plenty of third party independent newspaper references to support its Notability. Ngrewal1 (talk) 19:58, 16 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment But it's NOT an ORGANIZATION, it's a TOWN!!! Different criteria of Notability apply here as I have explained above. Similar town names are scattered all across major cities of Pakistan. The misnaming of the town is misleading people to think it's an organization. See Google maps of the town, then there is no doubt. Easily passes WP:GEOLAND. Ngrewal1 (talk) 17:56, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If you can show evidence of the legal recognition of this area as a town, then I agree, this will easily pass WP:GEOLAND. That evidence has not been found. A Google Maps link is not evidence that this is a legally recognized place. —ScottyWong— 16:44, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Even if this were an organization, the coverage of the Supreme Court of Pakistan ordering it to turn over housing plans indicates that this is a significant entity. If we're treating this as a housing development authority, it's an NGO rather than a town. And, in that case, WP:NGO indicates that it's likely notable anyway; there appears to be independent coverage from reliable sources, the organization seems to be nationally well-known with factors that have resulted in it receiving widespread attention (it ain't every day that a supreme court case happens, nor that it gets all the coverage it does). If it is indeed a municipality (or an unincorporated community with legal recognition), then this would be a simple pass of WP:GEOLAND. In either case, it appears notable to me, so I believe that the article should be kept. — Mhawk10 (talk) 04:42, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
DHA Towns all across major cities of Pakistan have a long history behind them starting in the 1960s. Significant news coverage by a news agency in India, three major newspapers of Pakistan and a Punjab Government website are significant coverage in multiple, reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Since the above nomination, the article is much improved now.Ngrewal1 (talk) 23:32, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You keep calling this a "town", but there is no indication that this is anything more than a large housing development or an informal neighborhood within the city of Lahore. A town is a place that is legally recognized. It has distinct boundaries that are defined in law. If it is a populated place, it probably has some kind of local governmental structure. Therefore, assuming that this is not a legally recognized state/city/town/village/settlement in Pakistani law (and I've seen no evidence that it is), then per WP:GEOLAND, it is not presumed to be notable and it must be shown that there are sources that pass GNG, which there clearly aren't. —ScottyWong— 00:57, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment None of the news coverage at the article shows me that it's an illegal 'large housing development'. How can we assume that it's illegal? As Wiki editors, none of us have the resources to produce or are expected to show legal documents to prove that everything is legal? We can only go by the news coverage on it, that's all. Can we leave it up to the relevant Wiki staff to make a judgement on it? Thanks Ngrewal1 (talk) 01:52, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Dream Focus: I agree. A merger discussion is a better option and more necessary than taking it to deletion. The nom must've been insecure whenever someone created a separate article for a list of episodes. He could've let that be for a week or a couple of weeks before taking it for a merger discussion. I wouldn't mind if this was created. SBKSPP (talk) 06:03, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge to series for now, if everyone else wants to create more work for this editor. List of episodes aren't always needed for single season shows, but this one appears reasonably well sourced and in line with what we accept from other shows. If the show bombs, then sure, it can be merged back into the parent article, but this seems, per DF, to be premature. Jclemens (talk) 17:37, 10 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Per reasons above. I created the list on the 3rd week of the series' airing and it was even reviewed a few hours after it was created. It seems to be well-sourced. ASTIG😎(ICE T • ICE CUBE)13:15, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Superastig: You were told before not to create a separate article for episodes, when the article for the series isn't that huge to begin with. You can see how short the article for Las Hermanas (TV series), and you could have created a section in that article for the episodes there. Which you obviously didn't even try to do. Why do you insist making a separate article for episodes?.TheHotwiki (talk) 13:25, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hotwiki, it's no big deal if an article for a certain series isn't that huge to begin with. Besides, this is a weekday series, not weekly. It has no fixed number of episodes. Therefore, it's never (will never and still never be) a sin to make a separate article for episode lists for such. I created the list on the 3rd week of the series' airing since I believe there would be enough sufficient sources by that time. Even if you throw hissy fits about separate episode lists all day long, I really know when to (and not to) create one. So, don't bother arguing with me. My "keep" stands no matter what. ASTIG😎(ICE T • ICE CUBE)05:08, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Superastig: Again, you are making a separate article for episodes when the article for the series, isn't huge to begin with. The series haven't even had 300 episodes and yet, you already made a separate article. You have done this in plenty of times to a lot of Philippine TV series,and some of those articles were merged into the article of the series. And you choose to do this again. Also, the references in the article are mostly first party sources.TheHotwiki (talk) 05:28, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hotwiki, like I said, it's NO BIG DEAL if I create a separate article for a certain series. Even a user created several episode lists way before I stepped into this. I see nothing wrong with that. So, even if you throw hissy fits about it all day long, it will never be a big deal at all. I can merge them only when it has reached at most 40 episodes. There is really nothing wrong with creating a separate article for a certain weekday series. Everyone, including me, has the right to do so. I really know when to (and not to) create one. And it's true no matter what. So, BE IT. This conversation is over. I'm not gonna waste my time with this useless argument ever again. My "keep" stands. ASTIG😎(ICE T • ICE CUBE)10:24, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Its a big deal, when an article for a series is small, for a separate article for episodes to be created. I'm not asking to you understand, as frankly you just ignored what I told about you many months ago. It is also the main reason why I nominated this for deletion, rather than talked to you about it again. TheHotwiki (talk) 11:34, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Superastig: That's right. Who cares if it's a small article to begin with? If it is announced that it would have 40 episodes or less, it's pointless to create a separate one. But in this case, it's way too early to tell when the series will end. With the factors you mentioned, I definitely agree that there's nothing wrong with creating a separate article for episode lists like this. So it's pointless to make this a big deal. SBKSPP (talk) 06:23, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I suggest you two read Wikipedia:Article size#Size guideline. A lot of these list of episodes specifically for Philippine TV series, got away in having their own article, when the article for the parent series isn't a long article to begin with. A Wikipedia guideline for article size wasn't made to be ignored. TheHotwiki (talk) 07:02, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Hotwiki: Don't doubt. As of recent, he never created a separate episode list for GMA shows right away. I don't see him do a separate episode list for a weekend show like Puto (TV series). I agree with him that it's not a big deal. Nothing good will happen if you make that a big deal. I see no problem with what he's doing. So you have no choice but to let that user be. SBKSPP (talk) 06:29, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per ScopeCreep; not only stop with the Facebook references, but stop using Nielsen ratings not provided by a reliable source! It is copyright infringement (the Facebook page's description reads "NOT THE OFFICIAL PAGE OF AGB NIELSEN", and we have no idea how they get the numbers). I don't know how many times I've told this to the Filipino side of WPTV, but we've already been down this road with Nielsen a few times before, and eventually they're going to contact WMF legal again and say they've had enough. Nate•(chatter)21:51, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Copyrighted ratings are now removed and are not to be re-added in either this or a merged article without a proper official source.

Merge per Northamerica1000 and BD2412. Based on nom's initial reasoning, this should have been a merge. Other TV episode pages are tagged as needing references, but they are not up for deletion. Heartmusic678 (talk) 11:11, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. The "keep" arguments consist only of references to WP:NFOOTY, which presumes notability for high-level players. But this presumption is rebuttable, and it has been rebutted here: the "delete" side argues that the subject fails WP:GNG for lack of substantial coverage in reliable sources, and that argument has not been refuted (or mostly even addressed) by the "keep" side. Based on the strength of the arguments presented, in the light of applicable guidelines, we therefore have rough consensus for deletion. Sandstein 09:11, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fails GNG and the spirit of NFOOTBALL. Played less than 1 minute of pro-league football back in 2019, and now plays on the third tier. His 16 minutes in the cup for IFK was against an amateur team. Geschichte (talk) 08:53, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Very Weak Keep it does seem to violate the spirit of WP:NFOOTY, but he nonetheless does pass WP:NFOOTY. Realistically, there probably should be a change to the standard as playing in the 90th minute and stoppage time in one top level match is not really enough for notability, but per the current guidelines I feel I have to go with keep. I very much understand the nomination rationale though. snood1205(Say Hi! (talk))00:57, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Updating my !vote to show preference to move this to draft. As stated by GiantSnowman, he is still young with his career still ahead of him. — Jkudlick ⚓ (talk)19:18, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: I could not find any WP:SIGCOV for this subject that currently exists. Would not be opposed to move to draft as this could be a case of WP:TOOSOON. There look to be a lot of soccer-related bios/profiles on random sites (as with most other players), but there seemed to be a void in my search of anything I could point to that would qualify the subject for a stand-alone article in my opinion. GauchoDude (talk) 15:09, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Passes WP:NFOOTY. Moving to a draft wouldn't improve Wikipedia as it makes the article harder for readers to find, and less likely to be improved and open to deletion in six months. NemesisAT (talk) 11:40, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete - although I contested the initial PROD, I'm still not convinced that he's notable and the general consensus is that failing GNG is more important than one minute of NFOOTBALL. Best sources I can find on him are UF and GP but these are fairly weak in my view Spiderone(Talk to Spider)20:11, 25 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: No clear consensus, current keep votes are focusing on NFOOTY whilst the delete votes are focusing on the more important GNG. Extending to try to deliver consensus one way or the other. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Fenix down (talk) 20:46, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Are WP:SNGs inherenlty less important than WP:GNG? At WP:SNG it's stated Therefore, topics which pass an SNG are presumed to merit an article, though articles which pass an SNG or the GNG may still be deleted or merged into another article. So my question is, is meeting WP:SNG but not necessarily is WP:GNG a problem or is it that, as stated articles which pass an SNG [...] may still be deleted? (Note: I did !vote keep above, but per the re-lister's comment and some other !votes, I wanted to see what others' thoughts were on this question because it seems to be rather central to the discussion) snood1205(Say Hi! (talk))21:29, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Snood1205 the FAQ at the top of WP:NFOOTBALL gives guidance on this. The answer to Q2 is No, the article must still eventually provide sources indicating that the subject meets the general notability guideline. Although the criteria for a given sport should be chosen to be a very reliable predictor of the availability of appropriate secondary coverage from reliable sources, there can be exceptions. For contemporary persons, given a reasonable amount of time to locate appropriate sources, the general notability guideline should be met in order for an article to meet Wikipedia's standards for inclusion.Spiderone(Talk to Spider)10:08, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: The thing is, we probably have more than 150 AFDs where footballers with 1 pro game got their article deleted. I wouldn't have nominated it if this hadn't become the general consensus. That's why I wrote "fails the spirit of NFOOTBALL". In my opinion the article fails the SNG, as I don't think the SNG was meant to retain 1-minute players. At least that's not how the SNG works now, following the probably 150 (maybe more) AFDs. Geschichte (talk) 23:03, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for this, I've added this plus a reference to the article. I don't know anything about football so if someone could check what I've added is correct that would be fab. This further shows why the article should be kept, the player is still active and new coverage is becoming available. NemesisAT (talk) 11:08, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete sources do not demonstrate significant coverage to pass WP:GNG. We shouldn't keep this based on 1 minute of professional football when there's no evidence he'll play in an FPL ever again (he doesn't currently after all). If he joins and plays for a fully-professional club in the future, then can be re-created, but it's WP:TOOSOON right now. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:57, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. "Is young, might be notable in the future" is pure WP:CRYSTAL, and while it is sometimes maybe justifiable in cases where the subject has recently signed to a pro team but the season hasn't started yet so they don't have coverage, in this case the dude was a very late sub in one pro match and has since been playing in lower tiers with no indication of returning to pro. !votes based purely on his technically meeting NFOOTY are also not in line with the guidelines, which very explicitly defer to/require GNG. If coverage doesn't currently exist for a subject, then they shouldn't have an article on WP. JoelleJay (talk) 08:12, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftspace is not an indefinite holding area, and drafts are deleted if not edited in 6 months. No evidence he'll meet WP:GNG in the next few months, and he isn't playing in an FPL, so won't meet WP:NFOOTY in that time. If he was playing in an FPL, I would suggest draftspace, but think it'll just get left in draftspace indefinitely (or deleted in 6 months as abandoned draft).

Mohiuddin was involved in running a charity named Infolady, which is the subject of most of the sourced provided. None of them contain any sustained coverage of her person. Much is also non independent. Since I haven't been able to locate any significant coverage in third-party sources myself, I don't see her meeting WP:GNG or WP:BIO. Modussiccandi (talk) 20:07, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
There is coverage in renowned independent news organizations such as Aljazeera, France24 and Philanthropy Age. These coverages explicitly include and refer to Mohiuddin. Besides these, the Infolady Model has achieved numerous local and international awards. Some of them are the Bob's award (Infolady wins Bobs award | The Daily Star), Manthanaward (E-AGRICULTURE & LIVELIHOOD, Winner 2011 – Manthan Award). Targeting the Ultra Poor Program is also an award winning program of BRAC (largest NGO in the world). Kindly help improve the article, but deletion, I believe, is not a constructive solution. The article just contains objective information, not trying to promote any person or organization, citing proper authentic references. J1477 (talk) 07:20, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure we're on the same page yet: I believe that there is no significant (that is, focussed and in-depth) coverage of her biography available. You say that the coverage of Infolady 'includes and refers' to Mohiuddin. This is true, but we are looking for more than mentions. If you're not sure what I mean by significant coverage, have a look at WP:SIGCOV. It seems you're trying to make the case for Infolady's notability — that is not what I'm quibbling about. Best, Modussiccandi (talk) 09:05, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Infolady is a notable award winning model, there is no doubt about that. It doesn't require further promotion. I have added further information as to her accomplishments as Head of the program (they came out in news portals, her name was not mentioned) but it is apparent that she was the head of the program during that time (if we match the dates). She also contributed to BRAC's TUP Program, another award winning program, and BRAC is the largest NGO in the world. She also hosted BRAC's first every Hackathon. As a person who has so much philanthropic contribution in Bangladesh, she deserves to have a few lines on Wikipedia (and only lines that were mentioned in renowned news portals). Proof and credibility of her activities exist - but citing LinkedIn and other personal blogs would not be acceptable by Wikipedia. Hence only providing information (a few lines) that were cited in these news portals. Bottom line: She was head of the award winning infolady program, award winning TUP program, and during her tenure she made some noteworthy implementations. Kindly end the debate here. J1477 (talk) 11:47, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Forgive me, but I believe you do not yet understand how notability on Wikipedia works. Subjects generally need to have been covered in detail by two or more reliable and independent sources (WP:GNG). Even though you've written at length in favour of Mohiuddin's notably, you have failed to demonstrate that detailed, professional coverage of her exists. Coverage is what determines her notability, not whether she was involved with BRAC or any other charity. You saying that she 'deserves' to have a Wikipedia article does not change this. Of course, I'll be happy to review significant coverage of her once it's added to this discussion. Modussiccandi (talk) 12:20, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

After attempting to clean up this article, I realized I just could not find solid evidence of notability. The closure of 2006 AFD Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mrbrown was fine (the article needed cleaning up at the time, not deleting), but the "keep" reasoning of the participants demonstrated several flaws.
First, participants seemed to conflate notoriety (or fame) with notability. Fame doesn't equal notability.
Second, the significant coverage that can be found (sources listed in the prior AFD) are basically about WP:1EVENT, an incident that occurred in July-August 2006 in which the subject got his newspaper column suspended for mocking the Singaporean government.
It's also questionable that nearly all of the coverage comes from The Straits Times, about the subject's position as an ex-columnist in Today, a rival newspaper owned by the same holding company. It's hard to know what to make of that; it almost seems like a holding company using its newspaper properties to stir things up between them. This treads into primary-source territory.
Finally, see WP:RSP: The Straits Times is not considered a reliable source when the Signaporean government is involved in the coverage. The sources mentioned in the prior AFD aren't in this article, and they shouldn't be.
Keep. While The Straits Times should be used with caution for contentious facts, I see no reason why its in-depth coverage of an anti-government protestor would somehow not count toward that person's notability. It's also not the case that he's a sort of WP:1E kind of guy; he's still considered to be a prominent Singaporean blogger by RS (compare Singapore's most famous blogger from 2008). I'm seeing coverage of his political activity from sources like AsiaOne and Singapore's The Independent (12), and his writings have been covered by Yahoo News Singapore. I'm also seeing reviews of his "The mrbrown show". One is from The Straits Times and, while not positive in tone, it still contributes towards him being well-known. He seems to pass WP:BASIC when the sources listed above are taken together with the sources in the article (as well as those presented in the previous AfD, which were numerous). — Mhawk10 (talk) 05:04, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As this clearly notable. I was thinking about redirecting it, but the term is way to vague and I don't think Munk School of Global Affairs is what people should be sent to when looking for Asian institutes. It's not like someone can't just copy over the content worth saving to the other article either. Which going by the fact that most (or all) of the references are primary probably isn't much. --Adamant1 (talk) 22:13, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There are a lack of reliable sources independent of the subject (UToronto). Notability is not inherited and there needs to be justification that this specific entity of UToronto meets WP:GNG, because UToronto and Munk School of Global Affairs already have their own standalone page.

The result was delete. The article being retained on dewp back in 2005 has absolutely no bearing on this discussion whatsoever. Daniel (talk) 23:37, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The article reads like a WP:SYNTHesis personal essay or survey discussion about the various contexts in which beer has sometimes been given away for free or sometimes has the word free in its brand name or colloquial name. This does not seem to be about a clearly identifiable and notable encyclopedic subject that reliable sources have extensively discussed. The cited sources generally do not extensively discourse on the subject of "free beer", but instead mention some instance of giving beer away for free within a discussion of some other topic. See also the recent discussion at Talk:Free (gratis) beer#Requested move 23 November 2021. Food has also been given away for free, but we don't have an article about free food. We also don't have an article about expensive beer or low-cost beer or moderately priced food or free whiskey or free vodka or free water or free books or free housing or free entertainment or free clothing or free Wi-Fi or cat killers in film. Why do we need an article about free beer? — BarrelProof (talk) 18:07, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom's reasoning. This does just seem like a collection of noteworthy times that beer was given away/advertised for free, along with a section for the Free Beer brand. It isn't a concept like free food as product samples or free education, it's just a specific product which people have given away at no cost sometimes. Waddles🗩🖉20:16, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Also, if kept, the article title should be changed (I do see there is a discussion underway) because I initially thought from the title of the article it was going to refer to the phrase "Free as in free speech, not free as in free beer". It is mentioned, but only in a small section. snood1205(Say Hi! (talk))20:19, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Under which criterion, I'm curious? Mistakes happen, and our notability guidelines aren't exactly objective. It's perfectly reasonable for any editor regardless of experience to have a different opinion about what is notable, which is what these discussions are for. ASUKITE17:08, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
While I do agree with delete, and questioned the notability at the start of the RM on that page, I do have to disagree with the notion that they should "know better", particularly as it has been translated from an article on the German Wikipedia, which from what I understand has generally high standards, though perhaps not to quite the same level as here. BilledMammal (talk) 22:09, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: This is not an original creation but a translation of the German article de:Freibier which has managed to survive at the German Wikipedia for over twelve years without problems. JIP | Talk23:10, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JIP: The non-English, simple English, and other Wikipedias tend to have lower quality standards/policy strictness and enforcement compared to the English Wikipedia. A lot of the articles tend to be poorly-referenced but don't get tagged, deleted, or fixed for a long time or simply forever, and content just doesn't get filtered out due to the lack of activity compared to that of the En Wiki's or the determination of what is and isn't acceptable content. Judging by the Free beer article on the German Wikipedia, that just must be an acceptable topic there but not here. It's usually easier to transwiki content from the En Wiki to another than vice versa. Waddles🗩🖉01:18, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep unless a suitable merger location is suggested - While I do find the notability of this subject somewhat dubious, and think it probably should be merged to another article, as it stands I can't see what is unencyclopedic about its actual contents. From what I'm aware German Wikipedia typically has quite high standards for article notability, so I'm not convinced of the argument that "German Wikipedia just accepts things that English Wikipedia does not". HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 06:34, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The notability standards on the German Wikipedia are simply different from ours, rather than higher or lower. They accept things that we do not and we accepts things that they do not. Phil Bridger (talk) 11:23, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: This article was nominated for deletion on the German wikipedia in 2005 and the result was keep. I would say that the discussion itself does not really discuss the notability of the article in a similar way to AfDs now at the English Wiki, but it's worthwhile noting that there was an AfD for the German article with the result of keep. It can be viewed here: Freibeir German AfD. (Noting this: I still retain my vote as delete, I just thought it would be useful to bring to the conversation). snood1205(Say Hi! (talk))14:07, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Note that the German article was nominated for deletion in February 2005. The article at the time was fairly minimal, and the reason for deletion was that it was a trivial article. The article was since greatly expanded and has not been nominated for deletion again. JIP | Talk16:03, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I'm finding some coverage for this film that points towards it being notable. I added one to the page - I can't access the full book but what I could see points towards it being enough to establish some notability. It also looks like it's been reviewed in the Austin-American Statesman and the Observer. I can't access the full articles since I have to wait for my subscription to be renewed, but if someone could check these that would be awesome of them. This also looks potentially usable, but I have a feeling it may be a passing mention. I know that so far this isn't a lot, but the way it's talked about gives off the strong impression that there is more out there that isn't available on the internet due to the time period.

Non-notable network
"In April 2015 Louis met Sanjay and Sujay through social media. They formed a Facebook group called SDN (Space Development Network)."

Delete sources are their own website (with a broken link going to a list of area codes) and a local news fluff piece. I was unable to find any other notrivial mentions, though the name is generic enough that isn't definitive. Searching for the topic gives http://developspace.info/ (perhaps the intended target of the broken link) and a couple mentions of someone named Doug Plata as the founder of this or an identically named project, who is not on the page at all but appears to be at leastsomewhatlegitimate. Given the lack of any other coverage, I kind of doubt the existence of this "global network" as anything other than a vanity project. Rusalkii (talk) 06:34, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The two sources in the article do not discuss the subject in depth. To be notable under WP:NACTOR, he would need to have had significant roles in two notable films. He appears in Prithviraj (film), but I'm not sure whether his role can be described as significant. Either way, his only other role (on Baahubali: The Beginning) was only minor.

Neutral there may be enough coverage to meet notability, but a lot of it is just interviews which are not counted.

The proper title is Sheikha and is used the attirbute to any female from member of the ruling family. This is not a similar position like the Duchy of Cornwall. A list of someone's children can be added to that person's page. Gorebath (talk) 07:39, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
delete A poorer quality copy of part of the information on the sheikh's children, and as already has been pointed out, it's not a real position, but just a translation of a courtesy title. Mangoe (talk) 23:30, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:NFO, "The film is widely distributed and has received full-length reviews by two or more nationally known critics." I don't think Joshua Tyler qualifies as a nationally known critic. Platonk (talk) 23:35, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Doesn't pass GNG or WP:NFILM. No citations for over 10 years on Wikipedia, IMDb reviews are awful, and the-numbers.com doesn't even have the film on file. Not surprised there are no reviews and hence no notability. Delete. Platonk (talk) 23:35, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Almost all coverage here relates to his relationship with Kate Moss. (This was stripped from the article by Hullaballoo Wolfowitz, on questionable grounds) This sort of "Who is x famous celebrity's new boyfriend/girlfriend" tabloid coverage is routine and doesn't make them notable. Being minor nobility doesn't make on notable either. The Telegraph piece is independent but is an interview, which only questionably counts towards notability. I think a redirect to Kate Moss is probably appropriate. Hemiauchenia (talk) 05:01, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep per sources above. Whilst these are interviews, they are not verbatim interview transcripts but instead quotes interspersed with journalistic prose and just about get across the line for significant coverage based on the journalists who are writing and providing independent, reliable coverage.

Delete: Subject claims to be the great grandson of an Indian King. "there are some 1,900 heirs who claim relationship with the Nizam" (Source:Indian Express, 2008) The legal tussle for royal money seems to be ongoing and Wikipedia should not take sides in promoting one among the others. Let the family and trust decide it. The subject must have his own notability. Claiming a stake in wealth and getting named in news article for those claims is not enough for getting an article.

I don't think that the subject satisfies WP:AUTHOR and/or WP:NACADEMIC criteria. Most of the sources appear to be self-publications or poetry publications on online literary magazines (with questionable notability by Wikipedia standards). The article itself reads like WP:PROMOTION as well; as a result, I believe the notability should be re-adressed and re-evaluated. Myxomatosis57 (talk) 10:07, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This second nomination seems irrelevant as this was already discussed at length at a previous debate. The subject does qualify notability criteria as per this citation which is WP:RS and contains a screenful of the text specifically about him. Also taking into account review magazines like Galway Review + Red River Review etc. But there should be a good cleanup and the article needs proper structure.Rbhu23 (talk)
Comment: I don't really think a single source (which looks questionable) on its own satisfies the basic notability criteria. The problem with the rest of the review sources (or with the rest of the sources, see WP:NOTEBOMB) is that they appear to be poetry blogs that likely do not satisfy WP:RS (or may lack general editorial oversight). That's what motivated me up to re-open the discussion, because this point was not really addressed in the previous discussion (which featured input from multiple single-purpose accounts). The article is also unfortunately marred with incorrect attributions: there is no mention of Le Mauricien on news.africa article, Indiana Voice Journal was wrongly cited as Indiana Review. Myxomatosis57 (talk) 17:21, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I agree. It should be Indiana Voice Journal. I did a deep dive(frankly, it could too much of my time). So, the article on Le Mauricien does have the same title as that of [20]. It was the same news reprinted as provided by the webarchive version. I see River River Magazine, El Portal Magazine and Plainsongs Magazine publishing his work, which means literature departments of various universities have interest in his work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tyuier34 (talk • contribs) 20:56, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, because not only is he [21] in the NCHC (National Collegiate Honors Council) magazine of the University of Nebraska Lincoln, he is part of their undergraduate creative writing syllabus. But the article is in shams. Why would one separate Works and Publications? Has no meaning. Loppyted97 (talk)
Delete. No sign of WP:NPROF. Looks also WP:TOOSOON for WP:NAUTHOR. Getting poems published by the Galway Review is a start, but doesn't demonstrate the kind of impact we're looking for. The student profile doesn't add much to notability; I'm otherwise seeing a lot of WP:REFBOMBING with sources of uncertain at best reliability. The article is in poor enough shape that WP:TNT applies.

See previous AfD in September which closed as making the article a redirect, only for the article to be recreated less than a fortnight later. Clearly still WP:TOOSOON, as very little of the article's current contents relate directly or specifically to the 2022 event rather than to the 2022 IndyCar Series (or apparently the 2021 IndyCar Series given the stuff about a test in October this year). Barring unforeseen disruption the race always takes place on the last Sunday of May at the same venue over the same distance, so none of the information about the event itself (rather than tests which happen to take place at the same venue) in the article is specific to this event. I considered requesting speedy deletion under WP:G4, but since the contents have changed compared with before that previous debate I decided that it is probably best to start a new discussion. Realistically I don't think this article needs to be created until April or early-May next year.

Redirect and protect until the 2022 season starts, completely agree with the nominator's rationale. There's nothing here about the 2022 event, just what happens every year. None of the sources in the article are anything more than routine and don't focus on the event specifically, meaning there is no significant coverage of the 2022 Indy 500 as yet. Googling for more shows up only primary sources, ticketing pages, and a handful of entry speculations which are coverage more of the drivers than they are of the event (and are routine either way). To quote myself from the first AfD:
The first criterion of CRYSTAL states quite clearly that the event must be notable and almost certain to take place. While the second condition is debatable (commenters above are speculating quite optimistically), the 2022 Indy 500 unambiguously fails WP:GNG.
Comment: to expand on my above !vote, and in anticipation of possible keep arguments, looking back at the previous AfD many keep !voters seemed happy to overlook the notability standards simply because the event was scheduled to take place. That is not a valid reason for inclusion per WP:CRYSTAL. To be kept, the event not only has to be almost certain to take place, but it must also have enough coverage to qualify for an article. If that coverage doesn't exist, then the subject doesn't get an article, because notability is not inherited. The 2022 Indy 500 must prove its notability on its own merits, it doesn't get an article 6 months in advance without any coverage just because it's an Indy 500. 5225C (talk • contributions) 10:26, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect and salt with a speedy close per previous AfD, as nothing has changed (if the previous discussion yeilded a delete consensus, CSD G4 would apply). I realise that this has content about a rookie test, but that (according to source 1) isn't Indy 500 specific, but rather a condition of competing in Indy car's oval races, and, therefore does not contribute to the event's notability. Therefore, the (lack) of coverage is the same and I see no reason for this to go another way to the previous AfD. I would also recommend WP:SALTing to prevent another creation. SSSB (talk) 10:35, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I notice that the 2021 article was likewise created too early, but instead of being deleted, it was moved to draft space until sometime in January of that year, when more material for the article was available. Indyguy (talk) 17:00, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose/redirect: I am not as convinced that this article violates the spirit of the rule WP:CRYSTAL. As noted in (1.) there, "Preparation for the event" has already taken place. 2022 Indy 500 Rookie Orientation Program took place on October 8, 2021. That was not general IndyCar oval testing, or an extension of the 2021 season. According to this ARTICLE, is was specifically "...for the Indianapolis 500". Reliable sources including NBC Sports, Indianapolis Star , RACER mention the event in non-speculative fashion. The Official Site has it officially announced, a schedule for the month published, a unique annual logo created and released, and tickets on-sale. It is likely that news surrounding the 2022 race will probably be light until after the first of the year, but to take the firm stance that it is mere 'speculation' that the 2022 Indy 500 will occur is a bit of an extreme position.
For similar comparison, there exists articles for Super Bowl LVII, Super Bowl LVIII, and Super Bowl LIX. Those articles represent events that do not exist beyond having been announced and scheduled. It is appropriate to discuss WP:TOO SOON. If someone had started 2022 Indianapolis 500 the Monday morning after the 2021 race, I think all would agree that is "too soon". The 2021 IndyCar Series season is over, and in fact all major U.S. racing series have concluded their respective 2021 seasons. Since roughly 2007, it has been customary at Wikipedia to begin assembling the articles 20XX IndyCar Series and 20XX Indianapolis 500 at some point after the conclusion of the previous year's season; as the offseason is when news begins to go out about the upcoming season. There appears to be a similar rule of thumb used in other similar projects. For example, 2022 Major League Baseball season was created on a date near the end of the 2021 season. A sub-page of that same article (2022 Major League Baseball draft) is also up, and that doesn't even have a date or location assigned to it yet.
To me that sounds like IndyCar editors need to reassess their publication schedule more than it sounds like we need to reconsider deletion. The season is notable, but given how light coverage is, I don't see why or how an article for the Indy 500 is being created before the season has yet started. 5225C (talk • contributions) 01:33, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:MMABIO as he does not have 3 fights in a top tier promotion, nor has he been ranked inside the top 10 of his division. One win over a young rafael dos anjos isn't notable enough for a page. ♡RAFAEL♡(talk)09:22, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment He's clearly not notable as an MMA fighter and the article fails to show that WP:GNG is met. The notability issue boils down to whether or not you believe his BJJ accomplishments are enough to show WP notability. Papaursa (talk) 20:58, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There's a lot to like in his resume', but I can't find enough to vote to keep this article. The biggest factor is that my search didn't find the significant independent coverage in reliable sources to meet WP:GNG. His medals at the IBJJF world events were all in master (i.e., older) divisions, which does not constitute the highest level per WP:NSPORT or WP:MANOTE. He won a European ADCC title but lost in the first round at the world championships to a fighter who lost his next match. There is an unsourced claim of 5 Rio state championships in BJJ, but even if true it's not sufficient to meet any WP notability criteria. He had no top tier MMA fights. I think his record is more impressive than many athletes who have articles, but I can't find any WP notability criteria that he meets. Papaursa (talk) 15:46, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

British Rail Class 950 and Departmental_vehicle#Further_reading list sources which could possibly cover this (this applies to all other similar nominations too). It's likely some other form of offline source exists (possibly in other issues of The Railway Magazine, too). I don't think there's much doubt that these indeed exist (there are pictures one can easily find), its just that there's not nearly enough coverage at this moment to write encyclopedia articles on them. This could possibly be a starting point for the older classes. It might be more logical to redirect to parent class as possible search terms (so, in this case, most probably British Rail Class 405). RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 20:08, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The Rail Enthusiast cite in Departmental vehicle#Further reading is of no use; it is about ballast wagons with no reference to the subject of these articles. Problem with British Rail Class 405 as a redirect target, is assuming the article is correct, is that the donor units came from over multiple classes, so it's not really the correct parent to redirect to. Same applies to the other articles except for the Class 901 which were all Class 101s. Prepopots (talk) 04:05, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Prepopots: Still, I would tend to assume with all the sources found, there's likely to be at least some content about this, so finding a suitable WP:ATD would be better, until someone can get access to these sources. The alternative would be redirecting to List of British Rail departmental multiple unit classes; as it's unambiguous that this existed, and well that list is short enough that it should be exhaustive.

This one appears to be a NN rail feature. Topos show a point on the railroad with only minimal development. Appears in an 1899 rail directory as a point without a post office, but nothing significant is said about it there, and I found another directory listing from 1922. That's about all I could find for this point - no indication of a pass of WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG. Hog FarmTalk04:44, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment It appears that there's a Gay District of Kittlers, though I'm unsure about the reliability of the source that describes it. However, if that source is correct, then this isn't just a train station masquerading as a geostub. — Mhawk10 (talk) 04:49, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The first source is unreliable and possibly auto-generated. The second one is a passing mention in a government source that defines locations by the closest named point - I've seen stores, named farms, etc appear in those. Neither of those are enough to indicate that WP:GEOLAND is met (being named and having something in the area for a storm to tear up is not enough), and it certainly is not significant coverage for GNG. Hog FarmTalk04:57, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. In combination with the Government weather report indicating that shingles were blown off of a roof (which implies some building), a cursory look on google maps shows that the location given on Wikipedia is within 2000 feet of what appears to be a house. This appears to be a sparely inhabited farming community and, per WP:GEOLAND, Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. This is one such place; the government weather report indicates legal recognition and that report (combined with the map and the fact that there is maintained farmland there) indicates that it is populated. WP:GNG doesn't matter; meeting WP:NGEO is sufficient to meet the first criterion of notability. — Mhawk10 (talk) 05:01, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
delete I see nothing here that says that this was anything more than a flag stop. It was just a spot on the railroad in the middle of a bunch of farms with no testimony that it was ever considered a settlement unto itself, or even a vague locale. Mangoe (talk) 06:25, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - GNIS is the only source cited in the article, but this is unreliable and cannot confer legal recognition. No evidence of notability either under WP:GEOLAND#1 or WP:GNG.
Mhawk10 is wrong about what WP:GEOLAND says: we DO NOT keep articles simply because they are about a location that was inhabited (by someone? even one person? possibly no-one?). A government weather report does not confer legal recognition - how could it? "Legal recognition" requires more than a government document mentioning the location. "Legal recognition" requires a process of law, such as the issuing of a charter or incorporation - otherwise the phrase "legal recognition" has no meaning at all.
I mean come on: a shingle? So like literally there may have been a building there of some kind, inhabited or not we don't know? No article can be written on this subject. There is simply nothing to write about this place, because there are no sources giving it significant cover. As such it's also a GNG fail.
Comment - All mentions I found were of a Kittler family, especially someone with the surname in Arkansas County being charged with murder in 1971; see here for example. Perhaps this was nothing more than a homestead/station/etc. named after a family who lived there? wizzito | say hello!12:57, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - No sign whatsoever of either legal recognition or GNG-level coverage as required by WP:GEOLAND. Looking at the sources:
NOAA - This one has several problems: A) The place where shingles were blown off was 1.1 miles East of Kittlers; B) The source doesn't say that the roof was on a house, and the building at that location sure looks like a Quonset hut type agricultural building to me; C) A mere mention in a government document doesn't count as legal recognition as a populated place , since these sources often just go by the nearest name that appears on the map.
[22] - Please don't waste our time with autogenerated shit, there's clearly not a gay district out in the middle of a farm field.
Google Maps - Please review WP:NGEO: "This guideline specifically excludes maps." A scattering of farms within a several-mile radius does not prove the existence of a community.
Obituary - Yup, this confirms that it was a station.
No reliable source has been brought forward that describes this as a community or populated place of any sort; that label is entirely WP:OR made up by a Wiki editor. –dlthewave☎18:34, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This fails WP:NGEO. This reservoir is man-made and is therefore not a a natural feature. Instead, it's an artificial geographical feature, which has presumed notability only if it is a recognized culturally significant place (this reservoir does not appear to have such cultural status). This reservoir appears to also fail WP:GNG; I cannot find significant coverage of it. Because it fails both GNG and NGEO, this article should be deleted as non-notable. — Mhawk10 (talk) 04:43, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - this is not just your average reservoir. It is one of the five lakes on the Five Lakes Walk, which is one of the most popular hiking trails of the world-famous mountain village Zermatt. With its intense turquoise color and iconic Matterhorn in the background, it is a very popular photo subject and notability is certainly given. --MRB (talk) 08:02, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, it's quite widely mentioned in all sorts of travel-guides to Switzerland, though Google-searches are not helped by a vast number of hits for Mooji-tv trying to get us to see with the eyes of consciousness. I think one should be a bit careful of interpreting the wording of WP:NGEO in a narrow sense; the demand for recognized cultural significance is in a section on buildings and objects, and seems to apply much more to things like bridges and dams than to a large lake. It is probably intended to stop articles on things like run-of-the-mill motorway bridges, by differentiating their status from that of a great historical viaduct. A lake is almost always going to be quite a significant feature of a place, influencing every aspect of its economy and social situation. Distinguishing man-made lakes from natural lakes is somewhat unhelpful as both have the same impact on their locality. And sometimes we don't even know: The Broads in Norfolk, for example, were believed to be natural until the 1960s. Elemimele (talk) 10:00, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And Arkansas apparently has problematic GNIS stubs, as well. Topographic maps suggests this is just a named intersection, nothing useful on newspapers.com. 1981 USGS publication calls it a locale.

Notability and stealth-promo concerns. Several of the publishers, such as "The Chicago Journal" and "The US News" have impressive sounding names but are not credible sources. Google search gives more crap sites like "US Reporter". User:力 (powera, π, ν) 01:16, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment it its current form, the article is really problematic. It's now been shorn of the dubious sources, which means the references are (1) a conference-abstract that means someone Femminella knew did something routine; (2), (3) interviews; (4) his own company website; (5) another interview. (6) The Daily Trojan thing is the only possibly genuine source of notability. His main claim to notability seems to be being CEO of his company, but given that it's a start-up that is supposed to have launched a beta-test product this year, it's probably way too soon. I can't believe we've got an article explaining that he's "currently finishing up" his undergraduate degree. Good luck to him, he seems a decent chap, and may well become very influential. But at the moment what I'm finding on Google is an ambitious and well-intentioned young man promoting himself, almost everything being podcasts, interviews and youtubes.

Actually, we should probably discount Wikisuper945's vote...they just signed up and went straight to participating in AfD. Very suspicious. SL93 (talk) 02:01, 13 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
My thoughts are based on three factors: (1) he doesn't necessarily pass WP:GNG on his own per my arguments above (2) he should not be considered under WP:NPROF because that's his weakest way to notability (3) he arguably, but only arguably, passes WP:NAUTHOR. However, with (1) and (3) combined plus WP:IAR, it feels like there's enough here to keep in terms of notability. He seems worthwhile enough to keep to me. snood1205(Say Hi!

Keep. As far as I can tell, and this is not my area of expertise but I do have a basic indication in this respect, 1057 citations in the field of religious studies would satisfy several WP:PROF criteria. If he currently has a professorship this would more than seal the deal, but I'm not entirely sure he does. In any case his impact as discussed previously, indicates he's a notable academic. This isn't quantum physics, so don't look for 50k citations as evidence of notability. PK650 (talk) 00:01, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- I agree with Peterkingiron. I came to add a page for Sam Waldron partly due to his role in the start of this seminary (there are two of other seminaries that use the same model IRBS and RBS). CBTS is interesting because it turned a congregational pastor mentoring center, at Heritage Baptist Church in Owensboro, in to a seminary. The local training center that became CBTS it seems was formed on the model provided by Albert N. Martin's Trinity Training Academy, now defunct after his retirement, that previously resided along side the [Trinity Classical School] at Trinity Baptist Church in Mountville, NJ. The previous Heritage Pastor, Ted Christman, and Sam Waldron were both connected to this program. Additional motivation for adding his page is due to his apparent role in shaping the theological viewpoint the above institutions embrace. The problem with citing this influence is that he is the author of much of the content thus it is not "independent". I am not connected to this group of folks but, looking at the group, the lines are clearly connected. He is the one who gives the "modern" theological defenses for many of the particulars that these three seminaries and their associated churches stand on: the regulative principle of the church, Plurality of Elders, a modern exposition of the London Baptist Confession of faith 1689 on which they all stand. It is a narrow (but growing) corner that these schools fit in: namely carrying out their belief that a to-be pastors's training in practical ministry should be done that person's pastors and thus, the role of the seminary is to provide what a local church's pastors cannot: academic rigor. Given the small subset of schools who actually do this, once a predominant "modern" defense of attending principles is made, others don't need to write another "modern" defense. Which means there is not a lot to cite on the importance of the individual's contribution to the movement that is forming.

Keep I can't evaluate this page for deletion as the nom provided no rationale for deletion and with that it's nearly impossible to argue for keep or delete. Are we arguing under WP:GNG, WP:NAUTHOR or WP:NPROF? If WP:NPROF he qualifies by being president of his seminary, although that is a rather tenuous keep. My larger point is there is not real way to discuss this properly as nomination is unclear. snood1205(Say Hi! (talk))04:06, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify Whether or not the nominator said so, the rationale for deletion is obvious: he meets none of the relevant notability criteria. They could be either WP:PROF nor WP:author nor WP:ANYBIO. We can evaluate all of them. The head of a small seminary is not the head of a major institution intended by WP:PROF. As author, there's an inadequately sourced assertion that he wrote a standard book in his religious denomination. For anybio, there's no substantial coverage. But the assetions in the discussion above would indicate he might be notable--if they were in the article. I suggest that the simplest course would be to draftify so they can be added.

The article is written as if the quantum computer based on non-linear optics exists. In fact, there are one or two theoretical proposals, and one group working towards an experimental realization of a quantum gate (from where, even if successfully demonstrated, will still be years or decades until coupling of qubits have been realized, and decades until something we could call "a quantum computer".

Comment: I think the lack of sources is a result of language bias more than anything else, so ordinarily I'd want to argue in support, but: this already exists (in near-identical stub form, but with better map) on the Azerbaijani wikipedia; and I can't get a single solid hit in any language out of my institutional library either, just one dud that appears to be about the present settlement of Shahbuz. -- asilvering (talk) 21:48, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. You wouldn't really expect a minor archaeological site in an isolated exclave of Azerbaijan to be easy to find on Google, would you? But there are two scholarly sources cited in the article and, although I can't read Azerbaijani, I don't see any reason not to take them on good faith. I don't think the creator's block is relevant because there has never been any concerns about the verifiability of his contributions, only copyright problems. – Joe (talk) 08:16, 22 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment not all archaeological sites are notable. In this case the article creator appears closely related to the author if the sources - possibly the same person. It may be a case of an archaeologist writing an article for every site he’s ever worked on, or there may be some political agenda. In any case, if the subject is in fact “a minor archaeological site” why is it notable? Who apart from the guy who dug it up has written about it? Mccapra (talk) 23:05, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The vast majority of archaeological sites are notable, because by definition, if we know about them, they have been investigated and probably excavated. Excavations especially almost always generate a large amount of high quality coverage (peer reviewed articles, monographs, etc.), because they are big projects involving multiple specialists and there is an ethical duty to publish the results in depth. So my comment that this site is "minor" shouldn't be taken to mean "not notable", just "maybe not of enough interest to non-specialists that people have published a lot of Google-indexed sources about it". – Joe (talk) 20:07, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Per WP:AGF, WP:GRAVEDANCING, and WP:NEXIST. Unless the behaviour the guy was block for was related to faking articles or being negligent in citing articles, I think we should just assume good faith that the citations are real. Deleting this editor's articles just because they engaged in copyvios would be WP:GRAVEDANCING, though it would certainly be wise to see if they were doing it systematically. I can't access these references but so long as they exist per WP:NEXIST that is sufficient. FOARP (talk) 14:30, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Is it sufficient, though? It's only one page of one of the two sources. I've seen things sink as "not WP:SIGCOV" with more than this.

Keep This is not a local small company. It's working since 1980s, expanded to several countries and we can find a lot of coverage related to them (Independent genuine coverage and not just press releases). The article used sources from media channels like BBC, Express Tribune, Gulf News, Khaleej Times so the nominator claim that it is "Sourced with PR advertorials" is invalid. While getting idea about Wikipedia guidelines and rules, I once found an article WP:THREE and although it's just a essay but makes sense.

ross Tierney is a professional footballer Why isn't that coverage enough to pass, what will be enough? It seems on Wikipedia it's our way or the highway. Whenever it's someone outside the moderator/wiki staff position you have to assert dominance. Relax it's just a wiki page. So you delete the page and then recreate it once he plays for Motherwell? Are you going to personally put in the work and create the new page? What exactly passes for confirmation that he's moving to Motherwell? Are they all lying. I think it's just you don't want to admit it was a mistake the original guy made for considering it for deletion as he didn't know he was moving to Motherwell.

Comment - as per links added by GauchoDude, I think there would be enough evidence of SIGCOV to pass GNG - maybe the IP above could add those and improve the story instead of bitching about the process (being signed by a club doesn't count the same as playing for them)...? Also is there not something about the League of Ireland now being a FPL? Haven't checked, maybe still under discussion. Anyway, if there's deemed still not to be enough, it would be a case of Draftify for a few weeks as - if the reports are anything to go by - he is good enough to go into the Motherwell team and thus pass NFOOTY almost immediately in January. So any work that goes into it now wouldn't be wasted, just likely 'hidden' for a short while until all criteria are met. Crowsus (talk) 18:56, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I'm not convinced that the sources in the article or unearthed at AfD actually meet the criteria for significant independent, secondary coverage. The pieces reporting on the death of his brother are almost identical in content and are half the same quotes from Tierney: this means the sources are neither intellectually independent of each other nor secondary and independent of the subject (interviews have long been held insufficiently independent for GNG consideration). The same is true for articles discussing his signing to Motherwell, which also comprise primarily the same non-independent quotes from Graham Alexander and therefore cannot contribute to notability. The Irish Sun coverage is similarly mostly quotes from Tierney, many of which are him talking about his teammate so aren't even relevant for his own biography. If playing a game for Motherwell is truly expected to garner IRS SIGCOV, then I guess draftifying is also an option.

Delete. I did some major cleanup, but I am not entirely convinced that what I found is enough to establish notability. I found one sole review from Nerdly, which is a decent start, but it's not enough on its own and the other source I found wasn't really heavy enough either (Variety). If more sources become available in the future then I'm not opposed to it being recreated but the sourcing would need to be reliable.

Non-sense accent on the second term, only a vary old typo left unmaintained for years, but never used anywhere.
After I had properly renamed here, I just wanted to nominate the generated redirect for speedy deletion (matching the current WP policy for deletions: WP:R3 only applies to recently created redirects from "implausible typos or misnomers"), but someone (anonymous IP User:91.219.149.124) reverted this request.
There's absolutely no value in keeping these typos, invalid in all languages (accent in the English term, but still not the correct orthography in French, official in that location), even if this is very old and concerns a page that was just a very early stub with errors and undeveloped. It was also not linked from anywhere (any wiki, or other external sites). The term "departmént" is clearly a misnomer. The name also itself is still ambiguous with present-day department in Burkina Faso and the former department in Northern Italy during the French Empire: there's a separate old discussion for fixing the page name as well for the Italian page and avoid incorrect mixes between the two topics. I have also fived (but kept) other possible names with their redirects, because they are plausible, but NOT this one.
