This individual is only notable as the co-founder of Overtime (sports network), which has been deleted as it was promotional in nature. I see no evidence of independent notability in the references given. If a non-promotional article can be written about the company, a redirect can be created to that article. Slashme (talk) 19:44, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the feedback. Please explain how being the co-founder of a major digital media company, and the creation of a groundbreaking basketball that has been featured in almost all the major American media outlets, does not make someone notable? Also, the removal of the Overtime Sports page does make sense and will be re-written. It is certainly a notable company. Bankrupt305 (talk) 14:19, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion, the topic of Overtime is notable, but Weiner is not independently notable. We don't need separate articles about Weiner, Overtime, and Overtime Elite. --Slashme (talk) 15:52, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have closely read the wikipedia criteria for new page creation and have spent time with wikipedia help desk and the normal protocol is for the editors to offer suggestions on how to improve this piece instead of just asking for deletion.

"Follow the normal protocol[edit] When you find a passage in an article that is biased, inaccurate, or unsourced the best practice is to improve it if you can rather than deleting salvageable text. For example, if an article appears biased, add balancing material or make the wording more neutral. Include citations for any material you add. If you do not know how to fix a problem, ask for help on the talk page.

To help other editors understand the reasoning behind your edits, always explain your changes in the edit summary. If an edit is too complex to explain in an edit summary, or the change is contentious, add a section to the talk page that explains your rationale. Be prepared to justify your changes to other editors on the talk page. If you are reverted, continue to explain yourself; do not start an edit war."

In this case Zack Weiner more than meets the criteria for notability. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:GNG&redirect=no

There is no puffery in the article. And there isn't inherited notability from the company - he founded the company and a professional basketball league. So I'll ask editors how to improve this page, instead of having it be deleted. Bankrupt305 (talk) 14:52, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies Bagumba. I believe Zack more than meets the criteria. I have tried to follow Wikipedia standards but am learning the process.

I have evaluated these additional source suggestions below. I have read and assessed all of the listed potential sources, and also dilegently performed WP:BEFORE. I've attempted to locate one solid source article upon which to build a reasonably-detailed biography of the subject. I have not been successful. The coverage all seems to focus on the company, and the only information about Mr. Weiner that could be summarized from it would amount to a limited résumé. I still think this article should be deleted. Beyond that, I still think the construction of a neutral draft summarizing the history (thus far) of the comapny and/or league would be fruitful. Some of the sources that I've evaluated in this discussion could likely be used to verify details about the founders within that company/league article; because the draft author wouldn't be seeking to establish notability of the founders, given that they wouldn't be the subjects of the draft. —Scottyoak2 (talk) 15:48, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The topic is reasonably notable, but only as a sub-heading in Color-blind casting. I am proposing this AfD to suggest a merge and redirect from Race-reversed casting to Color-blind casting. The novel use of "photo negative" casting is notable only in one or two specific cases, such as the production of Othello masterminded by Sir Patrick Stewart. Therefore, I think it makes more sense to discuss these particular cases as specific instances of color-blind casting on that article page rather than to contrive an article based on an esoteric form of casting that does not have independent notability separate from the one or two cases. AlexEng(TALK) 19:02, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So where's the WP:SIGCOV required for GNG? You can argue sigcov for Stewart's casting in Othello. You can't argue sigcov for "race-reversed casting," because it's not independently notable outside of that production. That turns it into a weird single-purpose WP:COATRACK or an example of WP:NOTNEWS. @Snood1205 and Hut 8.5: would you please reconsider your votes with that in mind? Thanks for your time! AlexEng(TALK) 11:48, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid you are mistaken because the Colour-blind article clearly describes it as "blind casting". This is not "blind casting", this is deliberately and intentionally casting characters in reverse race roles. The term "race reversed" casting was used as the title of the article as an WP:NDESC title opposed to "Photo negative casting" as it was originally. This isn't a COATRACK (which is an essay not a policy anyway) as it isn't trying to obscure anything or go off on a tangent. Also, NOTNEWS doesn't apply here either as this isn't OR, a news report, a who's who or gossip. It is only about a theatrical concept that may have been utilised rarely but is one that exists. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 11:58, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think you're missing several points here. Color-blind casting discusses variants of non-traditional casting and can easily be expanded to cover this more or less unique casting decision for Stewart's Othello within the context of "race-reversed" casting. The concept of "photo negative" or "race reversed" casting is also so needlessly restrictive that it's going to be esoteric by its very nature; it implies a racial binary. Who are you going to cast for a traditionally Asian, Latina, or Navajo character in "photo negative" casting? What's the opposite of Asian? Race-reversed casting is a coatrack, because it digresses from the arguably notable casting choice for Stewart's Othello and focuses on the practice as a whole, which is not notable independent of Stewart's Othello. As an analogy, consider if I created an article about the World Trade Center cross, but I named it Formation of steel beam crosses in building collapse. Yeah, it happened in a notable way, but framing the article as a discussion of the creation of crosses made of steel beams as a result of building collapse is creating a coatrack. Lastly, WP:ITEXISTS is not a solid argument, and WP:NOTNEWS says most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion, which is an argument against WP:SIGCOV, which is explicitly why that policy exists. See WP:WHYN. AlexEng(TALK) 12:51, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
For a start the argument you're making isn't based on the GNG. The GNG just says that the article subject needs to have significant coverage in third-party reliable sources. This subject clearly does. It doesn't say anything about only having notability in the context of X. Nor do I see how you can apply the likes of NOTNEWS, because this concept was still getting substantial coverage over a decade after Stewart's production of Othello. Combined with the fact that the concept has been applied to other productions (which the article discusses, with sources), I think it's suitable for a standalone article. I wouldn't object to it being merged into an article about non-traditional casting, but we don't have an article about non-traditional casting. We only have an article about colour-blind casting, and it's definitely not in scope for that as it involves casting people by race. Hut 8.5 12:56, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, GNG demands significant coverage of the actual topic. The topic that is being covered significantly in the above sources is not race-reversed casting. It's the race-reversed casting of Stewart's Othello. I could likewise not claim notability on Deaths caused by stingrays because one event received significant coverage: Death of Steve Irwin. Do you understand where I'm coming from? What other notable, reliably sourced productions are there in the article? If the answer is "none", then will you change your mind? AlexEng(TALK) 13:18, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't agree with that interpretation: coverage of race-reversed casting in the context of the Stewart production is coverage of race-reversed casting. The sources aren't solely concerned with the details of Stewart's production but with the general concept/idea of race-reversed casting. And as I've said the article discusses examples of race-reversed casting other than Stewart's. Hut 8.5 17:56, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It is WP:GNG and only GNG that should determine the article's fate. The one source cited that comes even close to showing decent coverage is the Hurriyet piece but it's not enough on its own and the article contains no in-depth analysis of Gürel at all.

Fails notability. Being elected to a non-major office and just existing does not warrant notability

Keep: The Minneapolis City Council is not a "non-major office" and notability for officeholders has been established since nearly every current and recent member has a Wikipedia article. The city is undeniably major and the Council has received international attention because of the George Floyd protests and it's subsequent police reform initiatives. I see no reason Chughtai is an exception with regards to notability and hope you will expand on your basis for nominating nearly every incoming Councilmember's page for deletion. Stanloona2020 (talk) 20:12, 6 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep: We should be encouraging articles like this, not deleting them. This is not a "non-major office," and in fact it is even more notable than it might look on paper due to the centrality of Minneapolis to the demonstrations and unrest that have been occurring in the US (and other western countries) since 2020. Decisions made by the Minneapolis City Council (such as a proposal to create a new city public safety department instead of the police department) have been nationally noteworthy. It makes no sense to delete this article, when Wikipedia would in fact benefit from articles on all current members of the Minneapolis City Council and in fact quite uncontroversially had articles on each then-current member before the 2021 city election (which is when new member Chughtai was elected).

Similar case to recently deleted İpek Özgan and Büşra Demirörs. Aydın has only played in WP:NOTFPL leagues and her caps for Turkey are only at youth level, youth caps don't confer notability. This source has about 3 sentences that mention her and the rest either only contain one mention or they are stats websites.

Per strong consensus, Aydın is required to meet WP:GNG but I could find nothing about her in a Turkish search. Some coverage of Ebru Aydın exists but nothing really about the footballer of this name that would justify an article. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 18:29, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is no actual claim to meeting notability guidelines. Being a signer of the role of distinguished stamp collectors is an honor, but it does not seem to meet our notability guidelines, since we do not find indepdent coverage of it. I did several searches. What I found is that some of the links to this article were really meant to go to Alma Theodora Lee, who seems to be the more common usage of "Alma Lee", so even if we keep this article it should not longer be the primary use of Alma Lee. GNG requires independent sources, and the stamp collecting societies own publicatiion honoring those it gives an honor to is not an indepdent source for establishing notability. I see no way to show notability here, and my searches for additional sources turned up nothing. Her one publication is not enough to establish her as a notable writer, so we have nothing here.

I read that as each individual player is paid (at least) that averaged over a year, not the average of all players "ensuring that each player is paid an average salary of GHC 1,5000 a month."
I read it the other way as in they are ensuring that the average of all players' salaries hits that value but that some will be above and some will be below. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 15:03, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

quotation

p. 28
A part of this desert was also addressed as ‘Jangal’, ‘Jangal Des’ or ‘Jangalu’ referring to the arid wilderness of the region. Contrasted with the neighbouring fertile plains of the Punjab rivers and the Indus, rich loamy lands of Gujarat and the thickly forested plateau of Malwa, its aridity renders a singularity to its character, that of a desert.
pp. 77–78
The kingdom of Bikaner was established in 1465, in the area that was traditionally known as Janglu.48 The fort-city of Bikaner was founded in 1488, in a place that was strategically located on a route that connected Punjab, Multan, Marwar, Delhi and Sindh. The control of this area seemed to have passed from one group to another and at the time of establishment of Bikaner. Johyas, Chauhans, Sankhlas, Parmars, Bhatis, Bhattis, Khichis, Chayals, Kyamkhanis and Jats were dominant groups and controlled large portions of this arid region.49 Several of these groups had accepted Islam but still seemed to maintain old associations, even continuing to enter into matrimonial alliances with their Hindu counterparts. In the 15th century, towards north and west of Janglu, Bhatis were still very strong and controlled all major forts including Pugal and Bhatner.50 Jats in this region saw Bika as a possible buffer between them and the Bhatis. Bika is believed to have intervened in ongoing disputes between Saran, Godara and Punia Jats, and eventually subjugated all of them. Nainsi describes Bika’s role in a dispute between Godaras and Sarans as follows,
The Saharans said, we will not be able to win, as Bikaji backs the Godaras. The Jats of Bhadang went to Narsinghdas Jatu, who brought his forces. When one hundred and forty Godaras were killed, they approached Bikaji, and told him that your Jats are being killed by Narsinghdas. At midnight half of the Jats of Bhadang approached Bikaji and told him that we will help you kill Narsinghdas. They took him to where Narsinghdas was asleep and Bikaji killed him. The Jat forces, fled, and Bikaji took all their cattle. Bikaji also killed Sonhar Jat at Harani Kheda.51

Its page nos. 57 and 76 also contain some relevant details about it, but I am not quoting them due to copyright issues. Note that I have just glanced through some pages of the above source, rather than reading them. And I am only posting here to show that this is not a hoax. So this needs a second look. But I guess we do need some coverage in other scholarly sources for meeting WP:GNG. - NitinMlk (talk) 20:47, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Partially agree with NitinMlk. As I already mentioned Jangladesh was real name of the region and it is no hoax. Rathores of Bikaner did subdue Jats of the area and took control of this region. The Bikaner Kingdom even in later times was called Jangal desh. As pointed out by @NitinMlk, there is problem of different spellings, in my opinion more common spelling is Jangal desh or Jangaldesh and not Jangladesh. Quick google book search for Jangal desh and Jangaldesh not Jangladesh gives quite a number of books mentioning it in relation with historical region. If I remember correctly, the rulers of Bikaner till later times were called Jangal dhar Badshah i.e. Lord of Jangaldesh. Sajaypal007 (talk) 12:49, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
My bad, it is not a hoax: was too confident to bother rechecking Kothiyal. That being said, GNG is not met: there is nothing to write apart from that in bardic chronicles, Rajasthan (or rather, a part of it) is frequently mentioned as Jangaldesh. TrangaBellam (talk) 20:53, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, only a particular north-western region of Rajasthan (rather than the whole of it) is historically known by this name. A quick search at Google Books shows that this academic source also has some details about it. But I don't have access to it. Anyway, you are way better than me at searching sources. So please do have a look at them if you get some time. Thanks. - NitinMlk (talk) 21:07, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't get time to look at the Google books search results, but I have just looked at the other sources cited in the article. One of them contains a chapter authored by Dr. Jibraeil, who was an assistant professor of history at Aligarh Muslim University (AMU): [10]. His research was focused on Rajasthan and the revised version of his thesis was published by Routledge in 2018: [11]. So I guess his cited chapter seems fine with in-text attribution. I will check its content in a day or two. Note that he was one of the multiple AMU faculty members who died this year due to COVID-19: see [12], [13], [14], etc.
Sajaypal007, the article's title is not an issue, as the page can be moved to Jangal desh if that's its WP:COMMONNAME. This region is mentioned in many Rajasthan-related articles. So a short and well-sourced article would be helpful. But at the same time, we need inputs from someone who is well-versed in Rajasthan's history of that era. - NitinMlk (talk) 23:44, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
NitinMlk, I consider myself as having good grasp on Rajasthan History, did my graduation and PG in it. As I looked at more and more sources, I kind of think that my vote for deletion was made in haste, although I did mention that the region is mentioned as such in history books. Can I change my vote from delete to merely a comment, with more inputs I can make better decision. Although I am little busy for next couple of weeks, I will atleast list as many sources I can find on this below. Sajaypal007 (talk) 05:42, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Added 3-4 sources on Jangladesh page alongwith quotes, copy pasting those here, Jangal Desh[1][2][3][4] Dr Dasharatha Sharma was a famous historian from Rajasthan. Rima Hooja is also archaeologist turned Historian. Karni Singh was former Maharaja of Bikaner i.e. the same region which was called Jangal desh and he also studied history from Delhi University. K.R. Qanungo was also a historian and wrote many books. Here 1 another famous historian of Rajasthan G.N.Sharma mentioned Jangaldesh in his map. Another historian Ram Vallabh Somani 2 in his book Prithvi raj and his times mention the region of Jangal desh. If time permits, I will add more sources that mention the region. Sajaypal007 (talk) 06:30, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Just remembered, the famous Chirwa inscription of Guhilot prince Samarsimha, states that Jaitrasimha's (his grandfather) pride could not be curbed by rulers of Malwa, Gujarat, Maru and Jangala. Sajaypal007 (talk) 06:42, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sajaypal007, the WP:!VOTE can be changed whenever you want, and the AfD can be relisted if you need some more time. But I am not familiar with Rajasthan's history of that era. BTW, Jibraeil's chapter does have relevant details, which I will hopefully quote here tomorrow. - NitinMlk (talk) 19:42, 26 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As the title indicates, Jibraeil's chapter is about the Churu region, rather than Jangaldesh, although Churu was part of Jangaldesh. Anyway, here's a relevant quote from the book:
quotation

After Chauhans, Jats completely established their supremacy and hold over administration in their own traditional fashion, which continued till the conquest of the region by the Rathors.23 The Jats claimed their right over the land which was under their possession before the Rathors occupied it and this claim was inherited by their descedants, who used to divide the land among themselves for cultivation. It appears probable that in the early period of their conquest the Rathors could not exercise any definite claim on the land as landlords. However, it was possible only in the 17th century,24 due to internal rivalries among the Jats, primarily Godaras surrendered, later on all the Jat clans accepted Rathor's suzerainty.25 After this, the rulers had strengthened their position and tightened their grip over the area.26
When Rathors led an expedition into the region of dry land also known as Jangal Pradesh, which was occupied by the Jats and various tribes, the Bhatis and Jats of the region wanted to secure their position, they measured sworded with him and fought bravely against them, but finally defeated and accepted Rathor suzerainty.27

- NitinMlk (talk) 20:28, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Churu and Bikaner were both part of Kingdom of Bikaner, Rathores since Rao Bika ruled over this part. So historically Churu is also considered as part of Jangal Pradesh. Sajaypal007 (talk) 13:27, 29 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Long story short, Jangaldesh used to be the old name of a particular region in Rajasthan which was ruled by Jats, before felling to Bika. We know nothing except this. So, why not merge to History of Rajasthan? TrangaBellam (talk) 06:44, 6 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with TrangaBellam. The term is very sparsely cited and, at best, deserves a mention somewhere. Not an article of its own. --RegentsPark (comment) 15:21, 6 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is a disambiguation page for two pages for two different topics which had been agglomerated into a single page. Neither topic appeared, in itself, notable. After discussion with Kvng, I split the two topics each into their own independent page, added hatnotes, changed the main page to a disambiguation page, nominated the two new pages for PROD, and this one for AfD (2nd). This whole process was complicated somewhat by vandalism halfway through. If one of the two independent pages survives PROD for some reason, it can be brought back into this page.

I did not mean any disrespect by including “personal information” in my nomination rationale. I only did so because the page’s creator uses their given name as their username.

The subject does not meet WP:NCHURCH, and its lack of notability has been pointed out since 2016; I have found nothing on this denomination. The article has no reliable secondary source to support its notability.

Subject lacks independent significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. The sources in the article are mainly press releases, or are about events in which Duncan was involved but not about Duncan directly. Those sources where Duncan is the main subject are too closely connected to him to be considered independent. Article reads like a CV or press release.

I would be fine with a redirect the album is found be non-notable. I didn't realize that Roosarna was once known as that. SL93 (talk) 20:02, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It's confusing because Kikki Danielsson released several solo albums on her own, but she was a member of Roosarna on every single one of their albums. Even more confusingly, the Roosarna albums were released as Roosarna featuring Kikki Danielsson, then as Kikki & Roosarna, and then as Kikki Danielsson & Roosarna. Anyway, the album being discussed here is a Roosarna album with Kikki on it. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 03:52, 2 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nearly all of the sources are press releases or derived from press releases after his passing. We cannot use press releases or articles derived heavily from press releases, as they are not considered independent. Pyrrho the Skeptic (talk) 17:22, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

We should keep in mind that nearly all of those sources you shared came from the same press release, or press announcement on about the same date, and per WP:PRSOURCE "Press releases and articles written from press releases cannot be used to support claims of notability." Pyrrho the Skeptic (talk) 15:26, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Each of the obituaries obviously contains independent reporting. The fact that they quote the press release as a statement from the company about his death does not mean that they are based on the press release. I mean Financial Times is about as high-quality as things get with sourcing so you're going to have a up-hill struggle to convince anyone that they sourced their obituary of Schnyder to a press release when it contains a bunch of stuff that clearly wasn't sourced to the company and aren't contained in the other articles about his death (e.g., the expansion in the former USSR and sales to a central Asian dictator, details about "The freak", Ludwig Oechslin's role etc. etc. etc.).
Additionally the final source (La Stampa) was from before his death, wasn't based on a press-release, so did you actually check all of the sources I included in my comment?
And this is all without even touching on the industry press (e.g., this), and society coverage (e.g., this and this). FOARP (talk) 19:20, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe, but the independent coverage is still almost entirely based off the news of his death, and there does not appear to be much coverage during his life. I did look at the sources you shared. The La Stampa is just a couple of quotes from him about the business, according to my translation. Am I wrong? I don't think that's significant coverage of the man himself. But clearly a lot of this is subjective. Pyrrho the Skeptic (talk) 19:45, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The FT obituary is very clearly coverage of Schnyder's entire life. Ditto the industry press coverage. The Le Temps obituary does discuss his sporting career and rescue of the company so it's not just about his death. The Tropical Style book is by Tuttle Publishing (an established publishing house) and is also clearly significant coverage of Schnyder, and notably doesn't even mention the company. That coverage of his life happened primarily when he died does not negate the fact that this is coverage of his life - many notable people only receive their best coverage in obituaries or after they are dead. Even taking a narrow view of the period of time in which there was coverage of Schnyder, it appears to have gone on for months/years and did not simply occur in April 2011. FOARP (talk) 08:39, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
PS - I've given the article a heavy edit to remove the PROMO garbage, reads better now I think. FOARP (talk) 11:36, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
