The result was soft redirect to Iván Noel#List of films. Reasonable ATD and don't think this is a violation of the prior PROD since that was removed by the PRODder who was also the AfDer. There doesn't appear to be any actual objection to the PROD and I don't see a relist helping with consensus given AFD volume. Star Mississippi 03:33, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A television program and social group that does not appear to meet the WP:GNG. The current sourcing is very weak, and searching for any additional sources turns up no actual coverage - there are some database sites listing the show, and a few very brief namedrops, but that's about it. As the show and group appear to be now largely defunct (the official site is now a dead link), its doubtful that any additional sources or notability will be forthcoming. While my first thought was that this could be potentially redirected to Nicholas Barton (filmmaker), the show's creator, a cursory look at that article and its sources leads me to doubt that he is actually notable himself.

  • Delete None of the networks they're 'featured' on are actual television networks, but brokered Roku channels, and the claims of 'criticism' by hunting and vegan activists read like unsourced astroturfing. Being 'closer to their fanbase' can easily be disproved as the DFW Metroplex has a better television production base than Wichita. Social presences and website are dead, and generally 'social movements' for women (which generally don't involve hunting) aren't started by men like Nicholas Barton, whose article could also do with an AfD.

Following a recent RfC, the Fed Cup was removed from WP:NTENNIS and therefore Salgues no longer has automatic notability. Also worth mentioning that she only played in regional group games in 2002 Fed Cup Americas Zone and 2003 Fed Cup Americas Zone according to BJK Cup rather than the latter stages of the tournament. The 10K doubles tournaments don't confer notability either.

I conducted a few searches and found mostly database and stats coverage. Google and DDG returned no useful results. WP:GNG does not appear to be met on current evidence. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 20:07, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A deletion alert for this article was posted a while ago by an account which is now blocked. That being said there are questions about the notability of this Wikipedia page. The article remains on Wikipedia primarily for the subject's notability as a researcher that may be the case, though arguably not. It appears that this page is on Wikipedia as a researcher, though the article seems to be written almost as a political candidate page/flyer. Looking at the subject's name on Wikipedia, though only appear as a political candidate on various pages. The subject of the page has only run as a candidate in multiple elections, finishing second. As a politician this subject does not meet WP:NOTABILITY at all. The work as a researcher and as an advocate does appear to be substantive. The question remains as to whether this really meets notability to remain on Wikipedia. If the conclusion is the article meets notability, it should be rewritten to a neutral tone and all deletion templates removed.

For my part I doubt this article is a notable one and it appears to be a page to boost political profile of a secondary political candidate. I would nominate to delete though I would love to hear others opinions to resolve. Words in the Wind(talk) 22:11, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This is such an obvious WP:GNG pass I don't really know what else to say. -- asilvering (talk) 03:51, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I guess I will add, for anyone reading this who is unfamiliar with Canadian politics, that the "boost political profile of a secondary political candidate" assertion has no real basis - the riding he runs in hasn't flipped since 2000, and is in no serious danger of doing so in the 2025 federal election either. A Wikipedia article isn't going to make much of a difference to his political profile. -- asilvering (talk) 03:57, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: definitely meets GNG. There is sufficient significant coverage by independent, reliable, secondary sources including The Atlantic, The Guardian, and The National Post. No comment on any issues with the article, except to say that they aren't issues for AfD and none seem significant enough that WP:TNT would be reasonable.

  • Delete unless more sources can be found to demonstrate the label's notability. I have now re-merged in the items and references from List of Made In Baltics artists; the creator of both this article and its two related lists, PauliineMitt, had previously incorporated the contents of List of Made In Baltics singles, so the article should now contain all the information and references we have about the label. I used ref names for a couple of repeated references that I spotted, removed the duplicate listing of artists from the intro while making sure we were citing its references, removed all the DAB pages I could identify and added what interwiki links I could to demonstrate that some of the redlinked artists have articles on Estonian Wikipedia. The article has a history of rejection by reviewers as not demonstrating notability: it has been both PRODded and draftified and then was rejected at AfC before being recreated. There is also a suspicion of conflict-of-interest editing, which has been denied by PauliineMitt. This is a recently established label, founded in 2018. From going through the article, which I have wound up extensively rewriting, I have the impression its main claims to notability are the association with Ewert and The Two Dragons and the Estonian Record Label Of The Year award. But I don't see that the article actually documents Ewert and The Two Dragons releasing recordings with Made In Baltics; most of the references about that group in the article, including in the Acclaim section, refer to before 2018, neither of their albums cited as highly successful was released on Made In Baltics, I looked for mention of Made In Baltics in the reference for their 2021 live album release and found none, and I've added a "clarification needed" tag to the statement that the group began its association with Made In Baltics in 2009. Perhaps 2019? Perhaps the association is actually with Ewert Sundja [et] and Erki Pärnoja [et], both founder members of the group? (Here on en., Sundja is a redirect to the group article.) Also, the article claims that associated artists have an impressive set of achievements "[t]hroughout its existence"; that needs references to establish that the achievements were while the artists were with Made In Baltics, not before. The claimed awards to the label's founder also need sourcing. And most fundamentally, I don't see evidence of much having been published in third-party sources about the label itself, as opposed to someone having released something on the label. It's possible that such sources exist, and/or sources establishing that the label's line-up is truly stellar and it has released several hit records. But I can't read Estonian to check whether the existing sources simply aren't being effectively cited to demonstrate this, or whether such sources exist and we aren't citing them. So as it stands I agree with the earlier reviewers that notability is not demonstrated; but PauliineMitt now has a better understanding of the requirements for a page, and may be able to fix that referencing problem by showing that the sources do demonstrate notability, referencing the unsupported claims in the article, and/or tracking down extended coverage of the company. If she or someone else can do so, I'll happily change my !vote to a keep, and in the meantime I've tried with my consolidation and rewriting to make the article clearer in its claims and references, to assist in that task as well as in evaluating it.

Not only is the article very promotional in tone, the edit summary for the article's creation edit reads "As these emerging technologies are important additions to the greater technology sector, able to make helpful upgrades and additions to existing technologies."

  • @Barkeep49: I'm not really sure why the CSD had to be declined here; the consensus in this page seems quite clear and multiple editors have noted that the article is entirely promotional, which would make it eligible for G11. It doesn't really make much sense to let the discussion run its course when the outcome is unlikely to change anyway. Even if an argument is made that a snow close is inappropriate, at the very least the article does seem to be G11-eligible and there's no prohibition against speedily deleting an article that's already been AFD'd (and indeed it's a relatively common occurrence).

    Letting the discussion continue for its final two days provides a stronger form of consensus than speedy deletion. For instance it would allow G4 in the future.

Not notable at all. This is a relatively obscure scholarly project. The sources do not even mention the topic, except for two that are directly linked to the person who coined the term (one of them does not contain any actual information). The tag to improve the references has been in place for four years. Google Scholar only seems to mention chapters in books that are edited by the same person.

Nominating on behalf on an IP editor. Rationale below.

This was originally prodded by Bri with the rationale that it failed WP:NCORP, which was contested by an IP due to the blogto source. There was then a bit of an edit war where a newbie tried to get it deleted by repeatedly re-prodding it. I think that there is a legitimate discussion about notability to be had here, because looking at the article I tend to agree that this is an WP:NCORP fail with only one of the sources in the article coming close to being usable (and even then its not great in my opinion).

  1. The first source here is blogto. I'm not convinced this is a reliable source, it seems to be a cross between a blog and a news portal, and its terms and conditions page states that it accepts user generated and sponsored content. In my opinion this source is at best "meh" quality.
  2. The second source is a two paragraph announcement in a local newspaper that the brand is opening a store in a local mall. This is a completely WP:ROUTINE piece of business coverage.
  3. The third source is a trivial mention - it's a detailed article on another clothing retailer shutting down which includes a throwaway remark that the holding company behind the retailer also owns Northern Reflections.
  4. The fourth source is a trivial mention - it's a local newspaper reporting on a charity fashion show that includes a thanks to Northern Reflections for donating the clothes.
  5. The fifth source is a business directory, again routine\trivial coverage
  6. The sixth and seventh source are the same thing, a press release about the company getting a loan.

I think that at best we have one 6 paragraph long "Meh" source here, so I don't see how this company passes WP:NCORP.

Fails WP:MMABIO criteria as he has no fights in a top tier promotion. Also fails WP:GNG as his fight coverage is mainly through routine sports report.

I am not 100% sure about the medals but these aren't competitions I have heard off like ADCC, etc. HeinzMaster (talk) 17:56, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete No sources for his MMA career are even given, his most notable appearances have been for EagleFC which is not top tier, or even second tier for that matter, so WP:MMABIO is definitely failed. As for his grappling achievements, they don't seem notable enough for to pass WP:GNG. ♡RAFAEL♡(talk) 09:42, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Clearly not notable as an MMA fighter. I looked up his record at the JJIF. What the article calls the "World Championships India", the JJIF calls the "South Asian Open", clearly quite different in magnitude. The JJIF records show he has appeared in one division at one JJIF world championship event, where he lost in the round of 16. I don't believe that's enough to show notability as a martial artist. I also didn't find coverage to show WP:GNG is met. Several of the references in the article, which are merely statements of results, actually say they are quoting his Facebook posts while others are Facebook posts themselves. I don't see evidence that convinces me that he meets any WP notability criteria. Papaursa (talk) 18:53, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. Lack of significant coverage in independent sources (all I could find were databases or things like the facebook page of his club). The "national" team for this French "collectivity" with some 35,000 inhabitants is not FIFA-recognised. But in the end, the most important aspect is that there just isn't any real coverage of this person[2][3] Fram (talk) 17:21, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep-guidelines for notability say that players have to play for a FIFA-RECOGNIZED team, not necessarily a FIFA member. The CONCACAF Nations League is sanctioned by a FIFA member confederation and Dupalus has also appeared against other nations that are themselves FIFA members. Precedent has been established that these players are in fact considered notable under the guidelines.--Gri3720 (talk) 17:30, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
These NSPORTS guidelines are being debated and reevaluated now as they are way too inclusive and not a good indicator of notability at all, as indicated by e.g. this very article. The national teams for such sub-national or otherwise very small entities are filled with a few notable and many non notable players. Fram (talk) 17:35, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
We must debate this article's notability by current guidelines, not by POTENTIAL future alterations.--Gri3720 (talk) 17:51, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That´s the eternal argument used to maintain poor guidelines. Afds are kept because they meet a guideline, and guidelines are kept because they only describe what happens at Afd, and don´t prescribe it. Fram (talk) 18:03, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am not necessarily arguing that the guidelines shouldn't be looked at from time to time to see if they still meet their purpose, but they are currently what they are. Until the group reaches an agreement on any changes, which you say are currently being discussed, you don't get to unilaterally decide to disregard to try to force a deletion.

The discussion you mention in no way shows a clear consensus. In fact it seems opposition to changing the guideline has the advantage.

      • Your first link is to page 113 of A Wizard of Their Age: Critical Essays from the Harry Potter Generation, the first page of the chapter "The Nuances of Mastering Death: Murder, Capital Punishment, and Assisted Suicide" by Kalie Caetano, where the collocation "Death Eater(s)" does not appear. Your second link is to the essay "An Analysis of Presupposition Used in Novel Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" from the Faculty of Language and Arts at the State University of Padang, where the collocation "Death Eater(s)" appears as part of the quoted line If it was a Death Eater we would be dead by now. from the novel and the authors' further analysis that this means that it is not in fact a Death Eater (an example of a counterfactual presupposition). Your third link is to page 213 of A Wizard of Their Age: Critical Essays from the Harry Potter Generation (i.e. the same book as the first link), a page that I am unable to access via Google Books but the search function tells me that the collocation "Death Eater(s)" appears in the sentence Even though, later, as Voldemort he is surrounded by his Death Eater "friends," they aren't truly friends. Your fourth link is to the student publication Harry Potter and the Meaning of Death by Harrison D. Brown at Gettysburg College, where the collocation "Death Eater(s)" appears eight times (none of which are in the abstract or keywords): In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, we learn that Lord Voldemort went to kill Lily and James who had been fighting against him and his evil followers, the Death Eaters., Unfortunately, at the end of the book, a battle takes place in the Ministry between Voldemort's forces called the Death Eaters and the Order, along with Harry and some friends. Sirius battles his cousin, a Death Eater named Bellatrix, around a magical "veil" that is supposed to separate our world from the "beyond"., Harry and Dumbledore are arriving back at Hogwarts, where Death Eaters are attacking the school. They land on the Astronomy tower, only to be met by Death Eaters and Harry's enemy Draco Malfoy. Harry is paralyzed by Dumbledore and made invisible by his Invisibility Cloak so that the Death Eaters cannot see him. Malfoy reveals he has been trying to kill Dumbledore all school year, with various methods and having no success. Suddenly Professor Snape, a friend of Dumbledore's and a former Death Eater, arrives., and Dobby is killed while saving Harry and his friends from a Death Eater's house, a final act of friendship and sacrifice for Harry.

@Erik Your first reference is not bad, but did you check if the others contain any SIGCOV? Have you seen critique of sources by User:TompaDompa above? It was posted, I think, after your list. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:39, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I was not able to check directly because of not being able to view the pages, but what I found specifically had "Death Eaters" in the chapter title, which I think indicates a strong likelihood of covering them. As for Jclemens's sources, I do not find the thesis/student-paper sources to be reliable, but the actual books he named, I looked and found Death Eaters on their index pages but could not see the actual pages. Like I mentioned, multi-page mentions tend to mean more detailed discussion, though not always. Regardless, if the article is kept, it needs to be cut down to a simple stub. The degree of in-universe content is atrocious. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:18, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This article is the result of months of discussions within the (former?) Harry Potter Portal years ago, since there existed individual articles on almost every single Death Eater (including Lucius Malfoy, Peter Pettigrew, Igor Karkaroff, etc.) Per Wikipedia:Notability, "articles on minor characters in a work of fiction may be merged into a "list of minor characters in ..."" In this case, since the List of supporting Harry Potter characters is/was already long enough to get entries from an entire group like the Death Eaters, it was decided to merge such individual articles into the already existing "Death Eater" article that just covered the topic on the organization. Certainly, the article has to be written in an encyclopedic way, but not deleted. --LoЯd ۞pεth 20:28, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Lord Opeth That's a fair assessment, the question is, can it be written in an encyclopedic way at all, and if so, will this be done now, and if not, should this be temporarily redirected until this happens? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:40, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus it can definitely be written in an encyclopedic way. Two key sections are important here: Creation/Development, and Reception/Impact in popular culture. We can start by creating the Reception section, incorporating some of the stuff other editors have listed and looking for more (it will obviously need to have the Expansion tag at the beginning of the section). --LoЯd ۞pεth 15:51, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Lord Opeth The problem is that those section still don't exist, do they? Until they do, a SOFTDELETE redirect, getting read of the in-universe fancruft, is IMHO preferable. As I said, I'd be happy to revise my vote to a possible keep if someone starts fixing the article (by adding such sections). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:45, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:ARTN states, "Notability is a property of a subject and not of a Wikipedia article. If the subject has not been covered outside of Wikipedia, no amount of improvements to the Wikipedia content will suddenly make the subject notable. Conversely, if the source material exists, even very poor writing and referencing within a Wikipedia article will not decrease the subject's notability."
Also, WP:SOFTDELETE states, "There is consensus among the community that problematic or likely-problematic articles with an appropriate redirection target may be blanked and redirected by any editor if there are no objections. This similarly applies to deletion nominations as well; if no editor suggests that the corresponding article should be kept, then redirection is an option." There are numerous editors advocating to keep. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 14:40, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, trim, improve. I think with the sources found it would be possible to write at least a paragraph of analysis, e.g. based on the quote from Death Eaters and Dark Wizards: Terror and Counterterror. Or in Reading Harry Potter Again: New Critical Essays preview shows things like "Rowling inscribes the ideology of Voldemort in different ways: using the words of Karl Marx...the Death Eaters, are dressed alternatively in feudal, fascist, and Thatcherite ideologies..." linking them to both the "aristocratic elite" and "the welfare state" (p. 132) "The name Death Eaters suggests the swallowing of darkness, of lies - chiefly in order to preserve their parasitic leader." (p. 80) "Horrible as they are, the Death Eaters are eerily childish with Voldemort,... All those who embrace falsehood in these books evidence some form of arrested development..." (p. 86).

Despite playing 92 mins of professional football in the second tier of Serbia over five years ago then disappearing, I could find nothing to indicate a passing of WP:GNG nor any sign of any future professional career that would give reason to draftify the article.

This article fails WP:GNG and there is no evidence in WP:RS that such a myth truly exists. See my explanations at the DYK nomination: this article initially relied on Türk Söylence Sözlüğü by Deniz Karakurt, which is a self-published e-book by an accountant, with its references section explicitly stating that it features "original interpretation" and citing Wikipedia as well as a novel by the book's author. Following its self-publication in 2011, Wikipedia was used a forum to disseminate the claims in this book, to such an extent that I am currently carrying out a systematic cleanup on tr.wiki, where I'm an administrator. There are a bunch of other sources that are either completely unreliable (again, see DYK discussion) or can be traced back to Karakurt's book, for example, the master's thesis by Hilal Sansar, currently cited in the article, cites a book by Bahattin Uslu (2017, Türk Mitolojisi), which in turn refers back to Karakurt for all information about Bükrek and Sangal. As such, all post-2011 literature should be viewed with caution.

The Gazete Duvar source, currently within the article, refers to another recent book by Bülent Uslu, which I haven't been able to access; however I can confirm that Bülent Uslu has no academic credentials related to this topic. The current content in the article about the Pelasgians has absolutely no relevance established in WP:RS to a Turkic dragon and as such is a WP:SYNTH violation.

Finally, as detailed in the DYK nom, I have checked some volumes of reliable academic literature in Turkish, including two books with chapters on mythical dragons, and none mentioned Bükrek or Sangal. All of this makes me think that these dragons are fictitious later inventions. The article has been deleted on tr.wiki as the result of an AfD. GGT (talk) 14:43, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Per the below sources, there was no XXV Indian Corps. A XXV Corps was formed on Cyprus, but only as a deception formation. That corps has been recorded on List of British deception formations in World War II. This article was cited to a website that is now dead. I was not able to use the wayback machine to see what the website stated when it was live. Per the sources, it seems that a phantom formation was confused with an actual one.

Article makes no claim to ever playing in a WP:FPL or a senior national team. In addition to this, the 3 sources cited are passing mentions in lengthy player lists which do not provide the necessary depth for a WP:GNG pass. I searched Awudu Ronaldo and Ronaldo Awudu through Google News with no results. In DDG, I had nothing for Ronaldo Awudu and very little for Awudu Ronaldo.

Can't find coverage in Google or Google News. JP article cites team press releases and 1 RS to describe what foot he uses (right). Played 10 games on the Japanese third league 7 years ago, so technically passes WP:NFOOTY but that is a presumption of notability and it's been long enough to where I think notability should be proven and not just presumed, especially with how short his career was.

Unclear why a comparison of military ranks based on membership of a language-based organisation (without this being a military organisation or even being indicative of French being a major language in the country) would be a good topic for a list, and not just a random grouping of two unrelated characteristics.

There are many other similar articles created over the last few days; I have now only nominated these for the Francophonie, but if deleted then probably other AfDs for the Anglophone and Hispanic countries are needed as well (and any others that might exist on the same basis).

  • I am not shocked to find that this is in books, and easily improvable with only a little research. Disney is fairly well documented, after all. Amusingly, not only does Kokai & Robson 2019, p. 3–4 document the parade route and what happens, but both it and Veness 2020, p. 88–89 document a widely-publicized fire that this article doesn't have and apparently has not ever had in its contentious we-don't-read-books history. The latter can almost certainly verify much of the content that has been repeatedly inserted and removed for being unverfiable over the past decade, too, because it has a history of the various parades. Pages 88–89 are part of a "Magic Kingdom timeline" section from page 72 onwards. Yes, Springer Nature and Simon and Schuster are not vanity presses, and Kokai and Robson are professors.

    And if you are worried about the correctness of the start and end date information about the Dumbo's Circus Parade that was sourced to a WWW site, you could always try an encyclopaedia instead. (Smith 1998, p. 174)

  • Merge/Redirect to Magic Kingdom or Keep – The topic has received some coverage and would be well-suited for now to be included in the Magic Kingdom article.

Another point to mention... The parade is now called the "Festival of Fantasy Parade" and appears in numerous, secondary sources including The Orlando Sentinel, InPark Magazine, Spectrum News 13, and Capital Gazette. There are also other nationally-recognized, reliable theme park blogs that cover it as well, and those articles number in the dozens. While I'm sure someone could eventually expand this as a standalone article with appropriate sourcing, merging a few lines of coverage in the Magic Kingdom article and changing this to a redirect would suffice for now. --GoneIn60 (talk) 20:55, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hasn't played in a fully-pro league (fails WP:NFOOTY). No significant coverage of the subject (fails WP:GNG). Nehme1499 09:23, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]


Hi all. Appreciate your points, however Bath were and still are a professional club when he played for them, albeit playing in what's still classed as a part pro, part semi-pro league supposedly. However the National League is a professional league and setup. He's been mentioned on the Bristol City - a professional, championship club who're verified, Twitter on numerous occasions.

Please also bare in mind that James is a professional footballer who's signed a three year contract at Bristol City, again a Championship club. I appreciate he hasn't played for them, however there are players who've Wikipedia's that have also never played in a fully professional league either.

The name change is absolutely fine.

Look forward to hearing back. Benpring112 (talk) 11:12, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

there are players who've Wikipedia's that have also never played in a fully professional league either. - then those should be deleted too. Please see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:20, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I believe James will be going on loan to a professional league in the coming weeks, so you can either delete now and i resubmit when ready, or we just leave it and I'll edit when relevant? Benpring112 (talk) 13:25, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That's just supposition and unfortunately per WP:CRYSTALBALL we can't base an article on that. If he does play professionally in the coming weeks/months, the article can be recreated -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:46, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't pass WP:NPROF as far as I can tell; no books to help pass WP:NAUTHOR either. The things that look like books in this article are actually journal articles - this is one of those WikiEdu assignments, where the students profile a scholar and a few pieces of their work, that can make a person look a lot more notable than they really are. Maintenance tagged for reliance on primary sources since 2017; I cut the long chunk of CV-style material from the end, but then realized she isn't notable in the first place. asilvering (talk) 08:54, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not a "well-established journal". Xxanthippe (talk) 10:18, 13 February 2022 (UTC).[reply]
Isn't it? It's been around for decades. I didn't think that brief EIC stint was enough for NPROF either, but it's not my field, and I don't know if there are any guidelines about how "well-established" is defined. -- asilvering (talk) 21:14, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. I buy the WP:NPROF C8 pass. In addition to the editorial found by DaffodilOcean, she's clearly listed at the top of the board in the ending matter at the same issue [17]. The extensive primary-sourced "Scholarly work" section in the article should probably be removed or stubbified. Weak because an NPROF C8 pass generally includes more evidence of progress towards WP:NPROF C1. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 09:04, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I completely agree about editing down the lengthy scholarly work section, but I am not sure what is the best summary of that section. DaffodilOcean (talk) 13:59, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I was just going to remove the three paragraphs on the articles rather than summarize them, as the simplest and fastest way to solve the issue, before I nominated this for AfD. This is actually an unusually good example of this format of WikiEdu article, so they've got a paragraph at the top of that section that explains her work more broadly already. But if someone wants to put more work into it they're welcome to (though I recommend waiting for the end of the AfD in case some pro-delete votes pour in at the end). -- asilvering (talk) 21:00, 13 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • keep I agree that some of the text reads like a synopsis, which isn't what is usually done in an academic bio. Kudos to anyone who can take on editing that. I added some more writings because what was there made it look like she only published in the same journal that she edited, which would be a red flag. Women's Studies in Communication (assuming I have reached the correct record) is listed in Worldcat as an ejournal held in 930 libraries. As many libraries do not contribute to WorldCat, and of those that do not all create entries for ejournals (depending on whether they come as in a package, etc.), I would say that this is a major publication. This is also evidenced by the fact that it is a Taylor/Francis publication, a reputable academic journal publisher. Lamona (talk) 00:40, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep because Dr. McAlister clearly passes WP:NPROF C8. Additionally, her h-index score is a 5, verified both via Scopus and Web of Science. I'd rate this as good enough to meet C1 as well at this point in her career, given that the average social scientist h-index scores tend to be at 5 or lower across diverse fields, per this London School of Economics piece. (I'd place her field of expertise as straddling social sciences and humanities, but can't find averages for the latter.) The "senior lecturer" h-index score average from that LSE article (a roughly-equivalent rank to Dr. McAlister's "associate professor" in the U.S.) is 2.29, so she's more than doubled that average. --Pinchme123 (talk) 13:04, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
An h-index of 5 is not remotely enough to pass WP:Prof. Over 15 is expected from precedent. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:00, 23 February 2022 (UTC).[reply]
@Xxanthippe If the average social scientist h-index score is 5 or lower I don't think a 5 is enough for WP:NPROF either, but "over 15 is expected from precedent" doesn't make any sense, since h-index is so discipline dependent. Do you mean over 15 specifically in McAlister's discipline? Can you point to a specific precedent here? -- asilvering (talk) 22:34, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am afraid that I don't have the resources to debate, you but a glance through academic AfDs for he past decade shows that around 1000 citations and and h-index of 15 are expected for a marginal pass of WP:Prof; more in a fashionable field like this. Xxanthippe (talk) 01:51, 24 February 2022 (UTC).[reply]
@Xxanthippe H-index scores widely vary due to discipline. Hence why I provided a source to explain this and note why a 5 for an associate professor is much higher than average in her field, and average for all in all similar fields regardless of career stage. I stand by my vote that a 5 for a feminist scholar and rhetorician is plenty to meet WP:NPROF C1, especially one who also sails by C8 (further evidence of her impact). Not to mention, I have no idea what could be meant by hers being a "fashionable field." --Pinchme123 (talk) 08:49, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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

Although Butler-Craig certainly has a prestigious career forthcoming, at its current status this page likely violates WP:ACADEMIC. The closest justification for Notability is the cited Forbes 30 for 30 award, which would fall under Criteria 2, but I am not sure we can consider a Forbes 30 for 30 award in the same tier (or even a tier below that) of academic awards and honors as a Nobel Prize, MacArthur Fellowship, the Fields Medal, the Bancroft Prize, the Pulitzer Prize for History, etc. This article fails all other Criteria (1, 3-8) in WP:ACADEMIC. At it's current state I support its deletion. Paulstar57 (talk) 05:07, 11 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Quotes are not not enough for notabilty. In-depth sources are needed. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:41, 11 February 2022 (UTC).[reply]
I should have indicated that more was to come, and I have added some more details on the page. NowThis News shares a video highlighting her work, she has spoken with NPR about space propulsion, in addition to the recognition by Forbes, Popular Mechanic, and the Organization of Black Aerospace Professionals. DaffodilOcean (talk) 14:54, 12 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am changing from comment --> keep based on my opinion that she meets WP:GNG. As I already noted, she does not meet WP:PROF. Her repeated coverage by multiple, independent sources is evidence of WP:BASIC. She appears regularly in the media talking about the lack of diversity in space science, most notably in NowThis News[1] and in a podcast with scientist from NASA and Georgia Tech.[2] She has also been on NPR.[3] These three citations go beyond trivial mentions of her name, though the page includes other examples of less substantial mentions of her work.

  • Comment Most of the references in this article don't really establish a passing WP:GNG criteria. Most of them are just interviews with Butler-Craig which is fairly common in science. This would set a bad precedence of any professor or academic who does media interviews (and there are a lot!) having established Notability. I also agree with above, Forbes 30 for 30 is not seen as a credible award or honor in the science domain as an overwhelming majority in this field simply do not apply. Also, not that this is necessarily the case, but this article in its current state feels very autobiographical. --Paulstar57 (talk) 02:26, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am a little confused here. Paulstar57 is a new account with the only edits being to nominate this page for deletion. I don't think you then get to vote on it, or least that is my interpretation of this statement found in the guide to deletion: "If you are the nominator of an article for deletion, your desire to delete it is assumed (unless you specify that you are neutral, and nominating for other reasons). Because of this, you do not get to !vote (that is, for the second time) in your own AfD.". DaffodilOcean (talk) 03:49, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Reading through the material this should be a GNG issue and imho the subject does meet that notability guideline, if basically. So I agree with DaffodilOcean and Kj cheetham.

Okay, if the community agrees that this article genuinely passes GNG, then fine. I just personally thought the benchmark was much higher for GNG than this. If this is what it takes to have notability for science communication then there are hundreds if not thousands of academics that have a similar list (just using the Forbes 30 for 30 honor means that there are 30 of these scientists a year, for over a decade now). I am relatively new to all of this, but with regards to your "further achievement forthcoming" comment, aren't there the rules against crystal predictions of the future. We need to build articles on the reality of the present not on predictions of the future.--Paulstar57 (talk) 03:01, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The guy sounds like a hoot, but that isn't the criteria. The only real notable thing is being inducted into the Minnesota Music Hall of Fame, and I'm not convinced that is significant enough, by itself, to pass the criteria for inclusion.

  • Keep of the weakest variety. There was a few local obits after he passed. Could just see this edging over into GNG but interested to see what others think. Vladimir.copic (talk) 04:36, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The other obituaries cited are either more about the memorial arrangements than the person's life and works, or credit other cited obituaries for the information. The obituary by Lentz is neither, and is a fairly solid starter source. But for a biography I'd definitely need more than just that. One core source like that and a fair number of little sources to support, fill in, or even correct, details would be good enough. Looking around I don't find much in the way of detail sources. But there is another obituary not cited: http://glencoenews.com/sites/default/files/A-Section%203-8.pdf I'd like to have independent sources that aren't contemporary with the obituaries.

  • I have no problem leaving this open longer if people think they can find the sources. Again, the guy sounds like he was the life of the party and a very interesting (and talented) character, but I couldn't find enough. I didn't look at the obit, but if you say it passes WP:RS, I will take your word for it. If we can find one more source that is at least *some* coverage, and reliable, I'll gladly withdraw.

The subject of this article, a 1907 book, does not seem to be notable per WP:GNG or WP:NBOOK. None of the current citations are secondary sources discussing the book, and a search on Google Scholar yielded none. A search on Jstor yielded a few passing mentions ([20], [21], [22] and [23]) but nothing like the substantial coverage required for notability. Much of the current article appears to be a content fork for discussion of the historical race concept "Aryan race". And about a third is just a long quote from the book. Our article about the author, Joseph Widney, is decent enough, but only one sentence is written about this book there. I would suggest that anything usable here be merged into that article. The only reason I haven't WP:BOLDly performed the merge is that this article (somewhat surprisingly) has a relatively high viewership, so I'd like to get a solid consensus from the community on the matter.

    Honest question: Is there really no exception when the reviews are all well over 100 years old? It seems very odd to me that these reviews from 1907-1908 would be seen as establishing notability. Generalrelative (talk) 04:13, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:NTEMP is the relevant guideline. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 04:16, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks, AleatoryPonderings. If that's the determination then I'll of course accept it. But I do wonder if 114-year-old book reviews are really what the community had in mind when composing that guideline. 04:21, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
    My interpretation of the guidelines is that the amount of contemporary coverage that this book received indicates that it can and should have an encyclopedic article. If I was actually rewriting the article (which I unfortunately don't have the time to do, though I hope these sources are helpful to whomever wants to take up the task), I would incorporate more recent sources – which do exist – in addition to the ones above. I'm not particularly surprised that newer sources seem to be less in-depth than the contemporary ones. There wouldn't really be a reason for literary journals to publish a full-length review of a 100+ year old book as if it was just published; instead, it makes sense that discussion of the book is interwoven with other analyses. DanCherek (talk) 04:35, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As far as the book reviews, I'd venture a guess, though I don't have any statistical data to check my hunch, that book reviews are an even stronger indicator of notability the further back in time you go. Fewer reviewing journals, and also probably selection bias of our current databases. -- asilvering (talk) 05:43, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

While there is some coverage of this individual, this is almost all from a single source. This could be considered a case of WP:BIO1E, but does not meet GNG. Onel5969 TT me 13:53, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. First, the nominator for deletion blanked the article altogether with the edit summary redirect to only incident which he is notorious for, instead redirecting it to Al Columbia, who is patently not related to the article nor to Pawłokoma. I hope the nominator recognises that error.
Referring to the article itself, Biss played a central role in the Pawłokoma massacre, which itself is notable (but which article is a stub). Per WP:BLP1E, the article should be deleted if a person is known for one event, is otherwise WP:LOWPROFILE and his role in the event was minor or tangential. The thing is, the point 3 is not satisfied - he was central to the event.
The problem here is not that Biss only has one source that describes him but that there are few people who can read both Polish and Ukrainian, have access to the books and want to expand it. The sources are in fact rather plentiful [24], just no one bothered to use them yet. The article needs substantial work, but it clearly belongs here, at least for so long as the Pawłokoma article itself is not expanded. If it had been, we could have probably talked about merging, but given the dismal state of the Pawłokoma massacre article (which should be larger), the article should stay.

  • Bogdan Kobuszewski, Piotr Matusak, Tadeusz Rawski (eds.) Polski Ruch Oporu 1939-1945 (1988)
The list may go on, and I've only mentioned the Polish-language sources. Ukrainian-language sources have not even been considered in this list despite my writing in Ukrainian. Szmenderowiecki (talk) 16:03, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Google in Canada doesn't work the same way as it does in Poland, or even across users, which I've already seen elsewhere in discussions (Google should know better - Ukrainian Canadians are quite plentiful in Prairie provinces, and among these some speak Ukrainian; though again I can't rule out Google serving different content based on the province you live in). Besides, it's fairly strange that a query in Ukrainian returns you a false positive publication in Dutch (it finds repeated instances of "biss."). But anyway, you've got the titles above, you can search among these. They have each talk a paragraph or two about him, out of which we can make a small but a meaningful entry. As has been said, Ukrainian sources were not considered but that's because Google serves me Polish entries for Ukrainian queries. Szmenderowiecki (talk) 18:23, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Or, as patriotic Poles call it, anti-communist activities via armed robbery.

  • [30]: a footnote biography of at least several sentences length
  • [31] and indeterminate length and style biography that also appears to be at least several sentences long
While this is not a lot, it meets my interpretation of the minimum needed for GNG (at least two independent, reliable sources, which contain WP:SIGCOV-passing content about the subject). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:29, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

None of these appear to be particularly notability-lending. 1 is an interview with a non-reliable blog that refers to itself as a "DIY" Punk news site; 2 is an interview on the blog section of a website for a company that does hair and makeup for weddings, 3 is also an interview with a non-reliable blog where articles are submitted from freelancers/outside contributors and then published; 4 is a listicle , 5 is a community college student newspaper, and 6 appears to be paid given the sales pitch at the end.

Looking at the new sources, I agree with GPL93, 1, 2 & 3 are biographical but not very in depth and are blog interviews by fans, 4 is basically a caption on a photo and 5 & 6 are thinly disguised ads for her store and clothing line, not anything biographical. I will say that she seems to be well-known in the small pinup world but I think the best that could be written with these sources is a fan page, not a Wikipedia article.
Given the focus on youth in the modeling world, I don't know if more reliable sources will be forthcoming in the future if the main focus in this article is on her modeling career.
