This article is ostensibly trivia regarding observance of the sabbath relative to the International Date Line. Jeffro77 ( talk) 23:01, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Strong delete I know a LOT about this specific issue and this article is pretty much an attack job and utter nonsense. Legacypac ( talk) 06:26, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Strong Keep With the dramatic improvements this article is fantastic. Legacypac ( talk) 01:46, 23 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. A lot of reliable sources are available, if one simply Googles the title for news and books. Adding "ethnography OR anthropology OR study OR studies" to the search field eliminates most of the non-scholarly hits. I agree that the present article has problems, but those should be addressed by editing - e.g.(reduction to a stub) - rather than deletion. is a 09:33, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Really? The 'Google test'? For a start, that's not a reliable method for determining notability. Secondly, the most prominent results are from SDA sites, which are primary sources and not sufficient to establish notability. It is not sufficient for sources simply to indicate that there are SDAs in Tonga to warrant an article.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 10:25, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Yes, really. Did you add the string I suggested? Do you have a history of Googling SDA sites that skewed your results? is a 10:31, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Yes. And no (were you hoping I did?). I didn't notice any stand-out sites that appear especially suitable.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 10:39, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
You could not find 2 academic sources from Google? Wow!

You seem to have a lot of anti-religion stuff on your user page. Could you point to an AfD discussion where you wanted to keep an article on a new religious movement? is a 10:46, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Three userboxes about atheism among several dozen userboxes unrelated to religion is hardly "a lot of anti-religion stuff", but nice ad hominem.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 10:52, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
The links you posted don't indicate anything more than passing mention of SDAs in Tonga. Only one is specifically about SDAs in the Pacific; the other two aren't specifically about religion at all.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 11:00, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
So now you wish to change your vote from "delete" to merge/rename to "SDA in the Pacific"? is a 11:08, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply

The usable content is already present at Religion in Tonga; I have no objection to redirecting to that article.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 13:05, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. The nominator should read WP:BEFORE. A quick search shows various books and articles that discuss the subject in some depth, for example
    • Elizabeth Colson (2006). Tonga Religious Life in the Twentieth Century. African Books Collective. ISBN  978-9982-24-045-1. and
    • Dennis Steley (April 1988). "A Note on Seventh-Day Adventist Sources for the Pacific". The Journal of Pacific History: 102–105.
The subject is clearly notable, regardless of the quality of the article as it stands. Aymatth2 ( talk) 13:36, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Neither of those sources is specifically about SDAs in Tonga. The first is certainly a suitable sources for Religion in Tonga; the available abstract on which the claim about the second source is based mentions Kiribati, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Rarotonga (part of the Cook Islands), Tuvalu and Vanuatu, but does not mention Tonga.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 03:44, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Steley discusses the Adventist Koe Babitaiso (Tongan language pamphlet) and Talafekau Mooni (Tongan language monthly magazine). Others sources would include Garrett, John (1997). Where Nets Were Cast: Christianity in Oceania Since World War II. ISBN  978-982-02-0121-7., Lal, Brij V.; Fortune, Kate (2000). The Pacific Islands: An Encyclopedia. University of Hawaii Press. ISBN  978-0-8248-2265-1., Morton, Helen; Lee, Helen Morton (1996). Becoming Tongan: An Ethnography of Childhood. University of Hawaii Press. ISBN  978-0-8248-1795-4., Finau, Makisi; Ieuti, Teeruro; Langi, Jione (1992). Island Churches: Challenge and Change. ISBN  978-982-02-0077-7., Garrett, John (1992). Footsteps in the Sea: Christianity in Oceania to World War II. ISBN  978-982-02-0068-5. and so on. Much has been written about the Adventists in Tonga, as one would expect. The nominator would be better employed expanding the article from the many available sources. Aymatth2 ( talk) 13:12, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
All good sources for Religion in Tonga.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 13:18, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
@ Jeffro77: may we take it that you plan to expand Religion in Tonga? Or Adventist Mission? Or both? Aymatth2 ( talk) 14:02, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
My guess is that the closing administrator can see what is happening. Perhaps other editors will look at this discussion or the article and try to help. is a 14:56, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Aymatth2, you're welcome to assume anything you like. I nominated the article on reasonable grounds. If the decision is to delete (redirect), then that would be consistent with the notability of the subject matter. If the decision is to keep, I don't agree with the rationale, but it's ultimately fine too.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 15:04, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
@ Jeffro77: I guess that means "no", so I may expand this article without duplicating your research. For clarity, are you proposing to merge/redirect, retaining the title and article history, or to delete, purging the title completely from Wikpedia. If the former, there is a different process described at Wikipedia:Merging. Aymatth2 ( talk) 17:07, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
There is very little content in this article, and at the time the nomination was raised, it was just a coatrack for expressing a POV. Now, it's even less. It's not clear why the article in its current form or at the time of nomination would be a candidate for merging. It would do no harm to delete it, but I have no objection to redirecting. However, if the result of your objections is that the article is kept, it would certainly be best if you improve the article.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 22:59, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
@ Jeffro77: I again advise you to read WP:BEFORE, then withdraw this nomination. The minimum searches clearly show the potential. The current status of the article is irrelevant. If it can be fixed through normal editing it is not a candidate for AfD. Deletion does harm, since it raises a red flag for any editor considering recreating the article, and thus discourages growth of the encyclopedia. If it is a valid encyclopedic topic, the article should not be deleted. You may yourself consider improving the article. Aymatth2 ( talk) 23:52, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
I remain unconvinced that the topic is so notable as to warrant an article separate to Religion in Tonga and other articles already covering Adventism. If others disagree, that's fine, but I see no reason to withdraw the nomination of an article that has existed for 6 years only as a source of POV trivia about the Sabbath.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 00:04, 22 January 2015 (UTC) reply
I note your recent improvements to the article, although this could still be condensed to three paragraphs at Religion in Tonga. It seems to be fleshed out with some details that are trivial (e.g. a nurse helping to deliver a child has nothing to do with their religion) or out scope (e.g. irrelevant detail about Pitcairn Islands).-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 09:10, 22 January 2015 (UTC) reply

Withdrawn - signficant improvements have been made, and there is clear consensus to keep.-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 02:00, 23 January 2015 (UTC) reply

Article is about a non-current non-notable usage of a non-notable building. Jeffro77 ( talk) 22:58, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply

If it is notable as a heritage-listed site, and the only source gives two different names for the site, then the title of the article should be changed to the street address. The cited source doesn't say anything about the site, and searching that website for religious sites in Michigan doesn't return any results, nor does a search for any sites in Petoskey. Has the nomination been approved? If it has only been nominated, that also would not qualify as notability, per WP:CRYSTAL. It's also not certain that inclusion on the National Register Historic Places automatically warrants a Wikipedia article. Is it likely that the article will be expanded? Are there are any other sources that discuss the building?-- Jeffro77 ( talk) 01:50, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
The nomination has been approved; the database linked in the article is undergoing maintenance, but if you look at the spreadsheet linked here it's included. (The second name appears to be an alternate name, so it should keep its current name.) And inclusion on the NRHP is, and has historically been, considered a higher threshold of notability than Wikipedia's standards, so NRHP-listed sites are considered notable. I'm not a fan of these bare-bones articles either, but some of us at WikiProject National Register of Historic Places are trying to expand them; Michigan's one of the three states that doesn't have online nomination forms yet, but I put in a request for a copy, and if and when I get it I can expand this one too.

Non-notable company that doesn't even indicate why it's significant. A7 contested. I could find "Telekom+Brunei+Berhad" no real news mentions about what the company is notable for. There seems to be a single event mention of the company in the set of Chinese articles at the bottom, but that's about when another company was helping this company (from what I gathered via google translate) and not really a mention that would warrant a standalone article (Wikipedia is not news). —  kikichugirl  speak up! 18:16, 12 January 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep – This is the major (monopoly?) fixed-line and Internet telecom carrier in Brunei. There are a lot more hits on Google for "TelBru", e.g. [14] [15], about their FTTH rollout. We also have an article Telecommunications in Brunei, which is seriously out of date, so it could be merged there. But it's a rich country, if small, and I think we ought to have an article on the major fixed-line carrier.

Non-notability. Newly created article on film production company that does not appear to have actually released a single film yet.

  • weak keep The filmography is strange. It includes films like this On the Ropes (2011 film), which is a film by Mark Noyce. Now these two are real enough (notability isn't a question for this page), yet the film is credited to Mark Noyce alone, no production company named. Now if Happy Pup is a new creation, is this really a film they can take credit for? Why is this 2011 film being re-stated on this page as 2015? That looks like padding the Happy Pup catalogue with Noyce's back catalogue to bulk it out.
I'm happy, assuming that Noyce is notable and some AGF, to see Happy Pup as just about notable (more by inheritance than anything) and so I'm not looking to delete it. However it would be stronger, and maybe more justifiable, as a redirect to a section on a broader article at Mark Noyce#Happy Pup Films. Andy Dingley ( talk) 15:58, 12 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Actually, Wikipedia's notability guidelines specify that notability is NOT inheritable. A production company could have worked on a major motion picture and still be non-notable per general notability guidelines AND WP:ORG. That might sound like rules lawyering, but it makes sense: A contractor that installed the toilets at a famous landmark wouldn't exactly have real world notability. Neither would the failed startup of a famous politician. The only way we can demonstrate notability (and the burden of proof is on those trying to do that) is with independent sources reporting on the subject. Google tells me Happy Pup Films was founded in the summer of last year, and Google news brings zero relevant results: the company isn't even mentioned in passing by any news articles. As far as I can tell, this should be a Delete, or a Merge as you suggested. ZappyGun (talk to me) What I've done for Wikipedia — Preceding undated comment added 23:48, 12 January 2015 (UTC) reply

In any case I'm unconvinced that Noyes or On The Ropes are notable. The film relies on very flaky sources, and the sources for Noyes I've looked at are similarly thin. Local press is about as good as it gets: I'm thinking of nominating both for AfD. TheLongTone ( talk) 14:37, 13 January 2015 (UTC) reply
That's certainly a viewpoint, but we should be careful not to equate niche cinema with Hollywood and think that because something didn't have the marketing spend of Shrek, it doesn't exist. The place to look would be in the MA press, not national or local general press. I asked a couple of MMA people what they thought of Mark Noyce. No-one knew who I meant. Then I mentioned the film titles and suddenly they were all raving about them (and now they knew who Noyce is, if not by name). Andy Dingley ( talk) 15:49, 13 January 2015 (UTC) reply

Article is a one-sentence dictionary type definition written from a in universe perspective. The only source cited is from the Marvel Universe Wiki, and thus is not reliable. The page there is also a dictionary definition and cites no sources.

I have carried out a few quick searches and checks for this person but cannot really find anything to conclusively prove notability. Possibly most of the sources are in Spanish, which I do not read. What confuses the matter is that there are a number of Luis Sandovals in Google results as well as linked to from several articles - there seem to be at least three separate sportsmen by this name (a footballer, a boxer or wrestler, and a volleyball player) and a former prison guard, in addition to the reporter. This is outside my area so I'm raising for discussion, with no objection to retracting the nom if notability can be shown. Mabalu ( talk) 15:34, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply

NN student newspaper at small university, completely unsourced for SEVEN YEARS. Article unimproved and all but unchanged in the eight years since it was created. Prod removed with the specious edit summary "appears to be legitimate journalistic publication ..." That may well be so, but small-school student newspapers are not inherently notable, and WP:V and the GNG requires that a subject receive "significant coverage" in multiple, reliable sources; an WP:ITEXISTS argument never cuts it.

  • Keep. I've done some research and improved the article with cited sources. I agree that in its prior state it was unsourced and of poor quality, but WP:AFDISNOTFORCLEANUP. I was also able to find a good deal more source coverage in LexisNexis, but that database is being slow and wonky for me at the moment, unfortunately, so it's quite slow going with that one. — Cirt ( talk) 21:15, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply

Comment: Indeed, AfD isn't for cleanup. It's also not for swamping the process with plainly trivial and fleeting mentions, either. As with Rhododendrites, I've got Highbeam access, and looking over Cirt's cites, not a single one mentions the subject beyond a passing nod, and not a single one discusses the subject in any detail, let alone the "significant coverage" the GNG mandates. In order to legitimately advocate keeping an article, you have to do more than infer or imagine that there might possibly be qualifying sources: you have to produce them, and I'm both astonished and dismayed that an editor of Cirt's experience, someone who's participated in hundreds of AfD discussions, could possibly be confused about the level and depth of coverage that the GNG requires in order to retain an article. I await the first such source, and invite the Keep voters to withdraw their advocacy until and unless such sources are produced. Ravenswing 00:13, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • It's certainly not Cirt's good faith I'm calling into question, but his judgment in asserting that these are sources which satisfy the GNG. A casual glance at them is all that's necessary to see that they don't remotely do so. And since we have you here for further discussion, and you're advocating keeping the article on the strength of the sources, which sources do you feel discuss the subject in significant detail? Ravenswing 06:17, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - Very clearly fails GNG. Not one single source about the subject. Only a collection of really weak brief mentions from only local papers in minor articles. See below for a response to the idea that any of the sources added bring it anywhere near notability. --— Rhododendrites talk \\ 22:31, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - I tried to track down those HighBeam links mentioned above. I couldn't find one and below are both the links and the entirety of their coverage of this subject. All these do is establish the subject exists. Establishing notability via citations rather than articles about a publication requires major citations in major publications, not brief mentions in run-of-the-mill coverage of local people and events. --— Rhododendrites talk \\ 22:31, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
    • from Calling the Question is barely a mention: "In February, Point Park's student-governing body rejected, by one vote, a resolution supporting the union. University administrators urged a no vote, and Point Park's student paper, The Globe, quoted the student-body president saying there was too much uncertainty about "the real implications of unionization.""
    • I was not able to turn up any "scholastic corner" from February 2002 in Sunday News (with or without "Lancaster")
    • from Point Park Buys Building is again barely a mention: "The school's student newspaper, the Globe, has identified them as the West Penn building at Wood Street and Fort Pitt Boulevard and the 100 Wood Street Building at Wood and First Avenue."
    • from Peduto Stays in the know,Hillary's '08 Campaign Branded Casey as Enemy again barely a mention: "In a question-and-answer session at the Press Club of Western Pennsylvania on Wednesday, Peduto took a question from Andrew Goldstein, editor of the Point Park University paper, called the Globe. After Goldstein introduced himself, Peduto said he likes the Globe and praised it for an editorial that ran in the weekly's edition that had just come out that day."
    • from Kim Roberts, a brief bio of some local -- not even an article -- is again only a brief mention: "She has been a writer and features editor for the university's student-run newspaper, The Globe, and a writer for Point Park News Service.""
  • Merge and Redirect Despite Cirt's work to save this article, I don't think the paper is notable as Rhododendrites points out. I'd recommend adding a sentence to Media in Pittsburgh lest the paper be forgotten. Chris Troutman ( talk) 23:16, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment: I've no objection either to a redirect to the Media in Pittsburgh article or to the university article. As to merging, I can't see what there is to merge. Cirt's additions to the article look to be trivial ephemera such as who was two of the editors last year (as opposed to any other editors of the school paper's 50 year history) or that the mayor called upon one of the student editors for a question during a press briefing once.

One of the difficult things in carrying out research on this particular topic is the non-unique search term of "the globe", so it's hard to isolate articles about this specific subject. Here are two other search parameters, above. Still in the process of more ongoing research. Might have some time later. — Cirt ( talk) 00:33, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • This is not a good example of WP:NOTCLEANUP and linking to it (this is directed at multiple people, by the way) does not substitute for a keep argument (i.e. explaining why it meets notability criteria). I copied the entirety of coverage of this subject from Cirt's sources above. Beyond failing notability, there's not even enough material to write an encyclopedia article. Even if we copy/pasted the entirety of the text about this subject from these reliable sources, we'd still barely have anything (which is why brief mentions are discounted for notability purposes). --— Rhododendrites talk \\ 04:35, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • I'm sure that it being improved while under the gun of AFD was not Ravenswing's wish nor intent. And agree with it or not, my linking to WP:NOTCLEANUP was valid in pointing out that Cirt's work need not have been done, and that he has earned my respect by doing it anyway. It's now a more suitable stub than it was. Schmidt, Michael Q. 07:07, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • I would be more inclined to thank Cirt if he'd turned up sources which support the subject's notability, rather than fleeting mentions which are explicitly debarred by the GNG from supporting the notability of a subject. Have you looked at those sources yourself, Michael? Ravenswing 06:17, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Enough to convince me that this "minor" publication has caught the attention of enough mainstream media to meet the intent of WP:N and be "worthy of notice". And if the "mentions" were so "fleeting" (not the claimed "explicitly disbarred") as you seem to assert that nothing could be gleaned from them under policy with which to build an article, I might agree with you... but as they do offer enough information, I do not agree. The GNG is certainly the simplest means, but not the only. WP:IAR. WP:PRESERVE Schmidt, Michael Q. 07:07, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Err? The cites provide no information about the paper beyond that it exists. Beyond that, as you surely know, a source whose sole mention of a subject is a quote from the subject is explicitly excluded from supporting the notability of the subject. If what you're claiming, instead, is that your only grounds to support the subject's notability is IAR, what argument do you proffer that the student newspaper of a small school bears so much importance as to override its failure to qualify under the GNG, above and beyond your bald statement that it does? Ravenswing 13:06, 21 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • You first made a point of complaining that the article had sat unimproved for "SEVEN YEARS", when in point of fact you should after 10 years know that WP:NEGLECT is not a deletion criteria. You then insultingly dismissed a valid prod removal as "specious" and erred further by dismissively calling Point Park University "a small-school" as if size were a notability criteria. The safer presumption is that THE newspaper serving a major-enough University is notable enough for Wikipedia. We do not have to toss a now sourced and improved article. It serves Wikipedia and informs Wikipedia readers. And I am sorry I need to again point out that it is an error to baldly insist that the GNG is the "only" means by which a topic may be determined notable. Policy WP:V and guideline WP:RS do not insist that a source be quantitative. Policy WP:IAR disagrees with your narrow restriction of a notability guide, and so do I. Inclusion on Wikipedia is NOT a popularity contest, inclusion is based on verifiability and common sense. The paper itself is quoted by others. It is enough worthy of note to be written of here because what it reports is deemed quotable by others. It makes its mark without having to say "we're notable because everyone is reporting on what we are." Per policy and guideline, the GNG is not the final word. Schmidt, Michael Q. 07:13, 25 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Policy WP:IAR disagrees with your narrow restriction of a notability guide. IAR disagrees with everything the person who invokes it doesn't like. It doesn't mean do whatever you want if you disagree with the rules, nor does it mean that policies that have nothing to do with inclusion/deletion can be substituted for those that do ( WP:V and WP:RS are minimum standards for content and aren't about what should be included -- there are reliable sources for a whole lot of things that shouldn't be included). IAR means -- and I apologize if this sounds like I'm being condescending by typing this out as I know you're no newbie -- that the letter of the law shouldn't take precedent over the spirit of what it's trying to accomplish. What you're proposing is not embracing the spirit of notability but dismissing it wholesale because in this case it doesn't agree with what you want. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 20:35, 25 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Pardon me, but you're not a newbie either, and should know that guidelines are not policies. Policies are the "widely accepted standard that all editors should normally follow", and guidelines are "best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply". THAT is what we are discussing. I find that ignoring or dismissing the basic policy WP:IAR is not always the best way to improve this project, and what is repeatedly being ignored here is that the GNG is not the only means by which notability may be determined.
  • Most simply put for this instance... we have a newspaper from a major-enough university, a newspaper verifiable as itself being quoted and referred to by multiple other sources. Such attention makes it worthy of note. And now thanks to Cirt, we have a suitable c-class article which informs our readers even in the lack of comprehensive coverage. Schmidt, Michael Q. 21:36, 25 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • It seems we disagree about what is or is not common sense for the purposes of determining when it's appropriate to invoke IAR. But in the spirit of choosing one's battles I'll leave it at that -- clearly does not seem headed for a delete close and while I don't think this subject merits an article, it's certainly not egregious. --— Rhododendrites talk \\ 00:12, 26 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Update: The Globe has received multiple forms of recognition from the Society of Professional Journalists. In 2013 it was recognized with 11 "Mark of Excellence Awards"; and the following year it received four from the same institution.

  • @ Cirt: It would seem sadly logical that someone who does not wish the article here to serve Wikipedia's readers would not bother to seek (and would indeed dismiss) any source refuting a "claim" of non-notability. And since this paper has been around for 82 years, I'll wager that it has had more than just few awards from its peers. Schmidt, Michael Q. 22:45, 25 January 2015 (UTC) reply

( edit conflict) WP:NCOLLATH requires that an athlete win a national award or gain "national media attention as an individual, not just as a player for a notable team." Being named to the 1st All-American team doesn't confer the individual notability required. Not winning an award also fails to confer notability, no matter how notable the award is, as WP:GNG must still be met; all the references merely provide routine coverage. WP:NFOOTY requires actually competing in a FIFA tier 1 match or in a WP:FPL to be considered notable. —  Jkudlick  t c s 20:55, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
WP:NCOLLATH gives awards listed in Template:College Football Awards as example national awards. Being an All-American is the fifth award listed so I think its pretty clear that meets that metric. While I think there can be dispute on what level of All-American counts (1st team vs. honorable mention or AP (NCAA recognized) vs. ESPN (non-NCAA recognized) I think clearly being a 1st team member from the major selection body counts (note NSCAA All-Americans have their own article List of NCAA Division I men's soccer First-Team All-America teams). Moreover, since only one goalkeeper is selected on the All-American 1st team that is the same as being "national goalkeeper of the year" and that is an equivalent positional award to say the Doak Walker Award.

  • Keep - I think he does pass GNG with some (not all) of RonSigPi provided, as well as articles like this from NBC Sports. Also, being a first-team All-American from a prominently-recognized source ABSOLUTELY meets WP:NCOLLATH, we use it for basketball and American football all the time. You could argue that soccer doesn't get the same level of media coverage as those two sports, but as of now the guideline doesn't differentiate specific sports. As an aside, I always find it funny when we see a case like this who has been drafted/signed and hasn't yet played for his new club. The MLS season starts the first week in March, you could conceivably delete this article only to recreate it in a month. Will this guy suddenly meet GNG merely by stepping on the field for Toronto FC? No, the SSGs exist because the presumption is people who play a these levels generate the press sufficient to meet GNG - which this guy has (even if barely).

  • Keep - a journal's notability is based primarily on its impact. While it is true that this one is not indexed by Scopus or Web of Science, that shouldn't be decisive. Journal of Interactive Advertising has published many highly cited articles and several that have attracted popular media attention. It is also widely held by academic libraries. In principle, the article could be merged into a publisher article (currently Routledge), but I think it better to have a stand alone article. Due to its multiple affiliations over the years, multiple potential merge locations exist, but none is a super obvious destination. -- ThaddeusB ( talk) 16:38, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep mostly per ThaddeusB. If an academic journal is widely cited, and is held by numerous academic libraries, it stands to reason the journal is a reliable, verifiable source that could (and should) be used to establish the notability of other topics. As such, the topic is inherently encyclopedic, GNG or no GNG. Regarding WP:NJournals, I believe the journal meets criteria 1, via example 6.

  • Comment concerning the three keep !votes above: That a journal is published by a notable publisher does not make it automatically notable nor does it guarantee future success (I list -non-exhaustively- a few examples on my user page of journals started by such publishers and failing after a few years, never making any significant impact). Neither does it make a journal notable if a handful of other publications cite some individual articles. If the number of citations are notable, a selective database will pick up the journal sooner than later, but at this point, there is no indication that this is or will be the case. None of the sources that you present are anything more than in-passing mentions, none discuss the journal itself. I maintain that this journal does not meet any notability guideline that we have. -- Randykitty ( talk) 10:46, 26 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Actually, NJOURNAL says a journal is notable if it "frequently cited by other reliable sources." Being included in a selective database is used as an example of how to tell this is the case, but is by no means the only way to do so. -- ThaddeusB ( talk) 22:27, 26 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • The operational word here being "frequently". In order to find a single academic notable, we usually require over 1000 citations. A journal should have much more than a single academic... -- Randykitty ( talk) 22:49, 26 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • I have never heard the 1k citations=notable idea for an academic, but none-the-less I added the first couple pages of citation counts from the GScholar link and was already at 5k cites to Journal of Interactive Advertising with no signs of the numbers dropping off. I would suggest it has been cited at least 20k times by other RS, which I would deem sufficient for notability. Searching just for the phrase "interactive advertising", I only see two articles total (both in Journal of Advertising) cited more than often than the top papers published by Journal of Interactive Advertising. Sure it's a highly specialized journal, but given it's narrow scope the citation counts are pretty impressive IMO. -- ThaddeusB ( talk) 23:25, 26 January 2015 (UTC) reply

Fails GNG. Probably a promotional / vanity article by first-time editor Anthony Wlym. DOCUMENT ★ ERROR 05:52, 4 January 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep – Conditionally. An unusual article. He does seem to be well known in the cigar industry as an individual. In one of the cites he was briefly mentioned as a member of the "cigar elite". There is this interview in Cigar Aficionado, which confirms that he has been called a "cigar star". The promotional language is because a lot of the text was copied straight from cigar ads. That will all have to go, along with most of the descriptions of his creations -- no way that they can escape being promotional. The material at the end about being the "most ecological-minded of all cigarmakers" [39] was completely unsourced. The article needs to be rewritten, wikified, and considerably shortened, and the material at the end sourced, but then I think it could be kept. A lot depends on whether Cigar Aficionado is an RS. –  Margin1522 ( talk) 13:04, 4 January 2015 (UTC) reply

Delete, leaning Strong Delete for spam. The sources listed are trade publications with a demonstrable incentive to promote, with the most seemingly notability-granting one of the bunch, in Jewishbusinessnews.com, being authored by a Miami cigar-vender Felipe Gregorio, of Felipe Gregorio Cigars, which a quick Google dump reveals is a brand owned by Philip Wynne!
Next is the accompanying picture, which needs to be nominated over incredulous IP claims. Did Philip Wynne pose for Anthony Wlym, who claims the photo as his own work? Either way the answer goes, it's trouble. So, this is a thinly-disguised promotional article with two inherent associated dishonesties already spotted. Pax 10:59, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Reply to Pax I am Philip Wynne's son, I did in fact take this picture of Mr. Wynne. I can see how this article still may be viewed as promotional, and I will edit it further to make it neutral and adhering to wikipedias regulations. As to the Jewishbusinessnews.com, I was merely searching for sources mentioning Wynne online so I could cite them in this page. I did not know from reading the article that it was authored by Felipe Gregorio Cigars, that source will obviously have to go. Philip Wynne is a known cigar manufacturer and businessman I want this article to stay up on wikipedia. Instead of marking this as " Strong Delete for spam. " I would have appreciated some advice from wikipedia veterans like yourself and the first " Keep – Conditionally.

Comment – I don't think there is any problem with citing trade publications. We have hundreds of cites to the EE Times about products and people in the electronics industry. Frequent mentions in the trade press would rather seem to show that he's a notable figure in the industry. The only question is whether there is enough material there to build an article with.
For people wondering where the jewishbusinessnews cite is, it's here, from an earlier version of the article, picked up by the paper from this press release site. It's obviously a press release, no intent to deceive anyone here. Myself, I found all of this fascinating. I had no idea that a boutique cigar industry existed. If we can establish notability and write most of the article from industry sources, I see no problem with including a few clearly labelled quotes from a press release where the subject talks about himself. –  Margin1522 ( talk) 03:54, 20 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment – After one month of discussion, and a significant period of inactivity within the thread I would like to know if it would be possible to have this article validated and confirmed as legitimate. Since the creation of the page and the start of the debate I have, on several occasions, edited the article following the requests and recommendation of my fellow wikipedia authors and commenters. I have removed all text that may be perceived as promotional, added sources, links within the article, and shorted the page from its initial length. This being said, I would like to have the notice "considering the article for deletion" to be removed if possible, if not please inform me on what I should further modify to legitimatize the page on Wikipedia; cheers. –  Anthony Wlym ( talk) 18:40, 30 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete as spam. Reading the article, it is not an acceptable neutral POV article but a clearly promotional autobio. Consider the last paragraph: " According to Wynne: “Like a great wine, the leaves used to make a cigar need to have the identity of their birthplace and the earth they sprung from. The soil brings out the original characteristics of the blend. As men we can only paint with the palette of colors that the earth has given us. We borrow from nature so that you the smoker can taste the land."- The only thing to do with this is delete, and let a unaffiliated editor start over if they think they can make an article on this topic.

  • I apologize if I'm not commenting properly for this space, but I need more information. (1) What does "non-RS sources" mean? I sincerely thought they were good sources but I can change them now that I know they're not. (2) How is recreating it just one time after (a) a full year of work and (b) seeking and receiving the approval of the deleting admin inappropriately persistent? What more should I have done to proceed appropriately? (These are sincere questions, not challenges or arguments!) I've requested help with the article many times in various places (I can show you if needed) but it just keeps being deleted with minimal explanation as to what exactly is wrong. I'm confident it can be an acceptable article if I can just figure out why it's not right. I'm really trying to do the right thing here, and I'd appreciate any information anyone can provide. Thank you. -- edi (talk) 14:06, 4 January 2015 (UTC) reply
    • Update: I've attempted to improve the sourcing of the article based on the information I've acquired. I've removed all New Media Rockstars, Tubefilter, and YouTube references (except for the "About" page, which only serves to verify statistics and is automatically generated by YouTube, not posted by any individual). I've also removed all IMDb references after being informed elsewhere that it's generally not appropriate here. If there are other objectionable sources listed, let me know and I'll remove them as well.
Also, I'm unsure whether the nominating admin's mention of a "claim that he is more significant than he was before" refers to me, but I'd like to clarify that I never intended to make that argument. My only request was that the article not be speedily deleted so that I'd have the opportunity to discuss it and (hopefully) make improvements that would cause it to be acceptable. I'm not sure whether there's a question of notability, but if there is, I'd submit that I believe Mr. Borg meets WP:MUSBIO #1, 10, and 12 as well as WP:ENT #2. It's possible that I'm wrong, of course. I'm only explaining my reasoning for writing the article. Thanks for your patience as I learn. -- edi (talk) 08:49, 8 January 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep as a stub for the time being awaiting improvements; Google reveals plenty of business, such as banks and apartments, listing "Ranikuthi" as a location, thereby satisfying WP:GEOLAND. Bear also in mind that "Kolkata" is Calcutta, any sliver of which is odds-on more heavily populated than entire cities elsewhere. Pax 12:02, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
This is not an article on Kolkata. This is an article on an insignificant and unsourced location, with its claimed notability based solely on inheritance from Kolkata, and a pretty ludicrous claim about "20% of students in Kolkata". That's obviously a large and notable number of students, but there's no evidence to connect them with this very minor place. Andy Dingley ( talk) 12:35, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Voting keep is not the same as saying the article doesn't need to be fixed. It does. Until some useful information materializes, this stub article does not need to be more than one sentence long. Per WP:GEOLAND, we do not know at present whether or not Ranikuthi is a "Populated, legally-recognized place" (automatic notability) or a "Populated place without legal recognition" (resolved case-by-case). Since on Google I see banks incorporating "Ranikuthi" into their branch names, we should err on the side of caution. A fairly simple way to establish more general notability with a place name: chuck it at Google + (other term) to see what you get. "Crime", for example, yields this, among other results.

"we do not know at present whether or not Ranikuthi is a "Populated, legally-recognized place" "

Totally absurd!! WP:GEOLAND doesn't make the subject automatically notable as it is NOT a legally recognized populated place ( confirm here). Populated place without legal recognition? -OK. Establsh GNG then. Show me the sources, yes multiple, secondary, independent and reliable sources having substantial coverage of the subject. We seriously are not going to keep an article on a non-notable residential place. Anupmehra - Let's talk! 20:47, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Directly quoting myself above quoting WP:Geoland: "Populated place without legal recognition" (resolved case-by-case)". In other words, not "Totally absurd!!". Regards RS, the same reply included a link to a front-page article in The Telegraph of India (the inclusion of which in this discussion represents my attempt to "resolve" this "case-by-case". Pax 20:59, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
You are required to establish WP:GNG here, that requires a subject must have received " significant" coverage in "multiple secondary, independent and reliable sources". Here is the definition of "significant coverage", I'm directly copying-pasting from the same guideline for better understanding, ""Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention but it need not be the main topic of the source material".
So, where is this kind of coverage of the subject? Yes, we are doing case-to-case evaluation and I am asking to establish GNG. Subject fails WP:GEOLAND #1 for "not being a legalized populated place" and #2 for "lacking significant coverage in multiple independent sources".

This conversation is now outright ridiculous. How on earth do you imagine that The Times of India and the Calcutta Telegraph do not constitute major, independent RS, in fact, not archetypical cases (as some of the biggest papers in India)? - If this were over Hell's Kitchen, and I demonstrated that the New York Times popped up in a Google search, you would not be making this argument. Pax 07:45, 29 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Yes, and you don't or are unable to understand what the heck WP:GNG stands for. I'm not going to count how many times I've quoted "significant" coverage in my earlier comments. Do you understand, "passing mentions in tons of rs doesn't establish GNG"? What notability criteria are you trying to establish with "passing mentions"? Be specific! Anupmehra - Let's talk! 13:03, 29 January 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep, or Redirect to Kolkata. It is clearly an established and recognized neighborhood [41] [42].

Redirecting would retain the article history for possible future expansion. -- MelanieN ( talk) 01:58, 29 January 2015 (UTC) reply
Yes, it is something that exists (but that's not an inclusion criteria). Being not a legally recognized populated place exclude it from WP:GEOLAND criteria and lacking "significant" coverage in multiple independent sources make it fall short to reach WP:GNG standard. I'm not seeing any other notability criteria, the subject may be able to satisfy. We really are not a database of everything that exists. Anupmehra - Let's talk! 02:41, 29 January 2015 (UTC) reply
I will note that for most American large cities, there are articles about all the significant neighborhoods. Try any American city and you will see this is true. Ranikuthi appears to be a significant neighborhood of one of the world's largest cities. I would hate to see us decide that neighborhood articles are appropriate for American cities but not for Indian cities. -- MelanieN ( talk) 21:13, 29 January 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete – I cannot find any corroboration that Saveljič ever set foot on the pitch for any WP:FPL apart from here, and I find it especially odd that he did not appear in the starting XI only once in his career. The number of sources is greatly inflated, as there are only four unique sources, and one of them (#14) doesn't even deal with this person or even association football. The source website for #2-12 doesn't seem very reliable as it only lists two players for the 2003–04 HNK Rijeka squad, and worldfootball.net does not verify that Saveljič was ever actually signed with any of the clubs in an FPL, much less on the pitch for them. Therefore, I cannot find any support that he meets WP:NFOOTY, and even if all the sources were reliable, it is all routine coverage, thus WP:GNG is also failed. — Jkudlick t c s 08:10, 19 January 2015 (UTC) reply
