Promotional piece not based on secondary sources. I failed to find anything I'd call
reliable, but what I did find indicates that this is not a "school" (and it carefully avoids calling itself one on its website) but a "tuition centre", a difference that may well be relevant to the amount of government approval or oversight (see
The Star for an explanation of the difference and the surrounding issues). Without any reliable sources we cannot have an article; with reliable sources we'd still have to rewrite the page in its entirety, starting with the title. There's nothing salvageable here.

Keep we don't usually delete secondary schools amd this is a well established decently sized school. I don't see this page as promotional - it appears factual and plausable. Are you searching for sources in Malay? There is a lot of promo crap on bands and pageant winners that can be targeted for deletion that is a loss less pressing than deleting a school.

Comment - "this is a well established decently sized school" -
Legacypac, evidence, please? As I said above, it doesn't call itself a school, and I don't think it is one. Regarding "promotional", all without sources:
"one of the largest private co-educational schools in Malaysia",
"the only international school in Malaysia that offers the Express / Fast-Track IGCSE Cambridge O-Level education and examinations" (particularly the "examinations" I'd like to see confirmed),
"Students who opt for this option, can complete their Year 7 to Year 11 in less than 4 years instead of the normal 5 years route",
"provides an international, British-based curriculum",
"taught by specialized teachers",
"The school employs over 80% of local teachers, and 20% expatriates, mostly originating from Britain" (if there are over 80% locals there cannot be 20% expatriates),
"large teaching staff",
"Apart from academic excellence, Honsbridge International has a proud sporting tradition",
"many other sport activities with the school"
If you wanted to write an advertisement for a school (or something that is school-like), how would that sound any different from the above? You're welcome to nominate other articles for deletion that you think don't belong; see
WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS.

Citation needed.
Here is a source (of dubious reliability) that includes Honsbride International in a list of tuition centres.
An older version of their website calls Honsbridge "an independent learning establishment to coach students to score in their Cambridge IGCSE/O level" and promises that "you will have the best possible preparation for your examinations" (but apparently not the examinations themselves). Their
current website says they "aspire to provide quality and affordable IGCSE/O levels tuitions". And if all of that is not enough,
look at them (as of October 2017). "PUSAT TUISYEN"
doesn't mean "school". So unless you have some reliable sources that actually say it's a school, we're not discussing the deletion of a school here, but of a page that falsely calls a tuition centre a school.

Delete. I can't find any independent published sources.
This blogpost says it is one of several "independent learning centres ... These centres tutor children and prepare them for popular examination options ... The academy behaves in many respects just like a typical school". Honsbridge does appear to be very like a school (classes, field trips, sports) but as
Huon says, it doesn't call itself one, presumably isn't registered or inspected as one, and there just is no coverage.

There is no charting information, or otherwise significant coverage among several independent reliable sources. The band who recorded the album aren't even notable for a biography article.
WP:NALBUMS states "Notability aside, a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged into the artist's article or discography", and that is clearly the case here except there's no article this could be merged to since it isn't even by a notable band.

[1]. Regardless, I don't think those are enough when the notability of the band itself is suspect. Speedy Delete rule
WP:A9 requires both an article for the band and indications that the album is notable, and while there is some minor evidence of notability for this album, the Speedy Delete rule's existence implies that in most cases there should be a band article first. Also the album article is nearly an
orphan without a band article to connect it to, and Wikipedia tries to fix orphans too. (See also the article for the band's previous album, which has been PROD'ded.) I propose that any interested person create an article on the band and see if it survives the notability question. Until then, an album article is pointless. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (

Keep/merge. I don't think the band article should have been speedy deleted as an A7, as the tours were enough for some claim of significance, and a Google search finds enough coverage to make the band at least borderline notable. I'm not convinced there's enough coverage to justify an article on this album, but the band article should be revived, improved, and this should be merged there. --

Comment – Below is a source analysis of the articles posted by power~enwiki above.
Consists of a name check and then all quotations from the subject, acting as a spokesperson. Being just about all quotations makes this a primary source, which does not establish notability. Furthermore, this article provides just about no biographical information about the subject.
An article about the subject attending an event and acting as a spokesperson, consisting mostly of quotations, making it primary in nature. This also provides basically no biographical information about the subject, and is just minor routine coverage about an event, rather than the subject.
A subject's role in a religious organization does not create presumed notability, because there is no presumed notability for religious subjects on English Wikipedia. What is needed is significant coverage in multiple, independent reliable sources. Passing mentions and name checks are not significant coverage, and articles consisting mostly of quotations are primary sources. Furthermore, regarding the notion above of "the various primary sources are sufficient to write a short article", this is entirely backwards, because to qualify for an article, notability per Wikipedia's standards needs to exist, then an article should be created, rather than vice versa.

IMDb page for one of her films. As always, every filmmaker is not automatically entitled to have an article just because one or more of her films have IMDb entries -- a filmmaker needs to have a credible claim of notability that would pass NCREATIVE, and needs to have

Her work on the task force on Sex-Role Stereotyping in the Broadcast Media is quoted in articles about Canadian policy and also internationally (eg in Australia), and starting Media Watch in Canada is significant. I am not aware of Wikipedia criteria for notability for activists, but I believe that she is notable. The "article" is not even a stub, so deleting it or keeping it hardly matters - I have started adding more information and references, but as it amounts to starting a new article, I have copied this to my sandbox. I'll paste it back here as soon as it has any substance. If someone else works on this article here, I can just add in anything else I have.

Well, that is somewhat better, but you may also need to read up a bit on what we call
reference bombing: I'm seeing things like
IMDb in the sourcing, which is an absolute no-no at all times, and I'm seeing other primary and unreliable sources, and I'm seeing too many statements upon which you've stacked two or three redundant sources — there are almost no circumstances where any statement in a Wikipedia article actually needs two references for it instead of just one good one, and very definitely zero circumstances where any statement in a Wikipedia article ever needs three references stacked one after the other onto the same statement. When I tried to fix the punctuation errors in the article just now (commas or periods or closing parenthesis go first and then the reference tag, not vice versa), it was literal flaming hell trying to find where the corrected punctuation was supposed to go given all the reference-tetris. Yes, there's some media coverage in the mix now — but there's still too much junk sourcing being used, so it's still not free of problems.
Bearcat (

The legitimate references are enough to establish notability, and we are really only interested in establishing whether the subject has enough notability here to warrant an article, which no doubt she has with the sources found. Also references that do not establish notability can nevertheless still be used to support certain facts. If there are other references that aren't good, feel free to remove them, including the content supported by those references, I do think it is too long-winded and could do with trimming anyway.
Hzh (
talk) 09:31, 29 October 2018 (UTC)reply
Thank you,
Bearcat, for the information about where the references should be placed in relation to commas and parentheses. I was aware that they are placed after periods - I thought I had seen them placed before commas. I would have been happy to correct their placement myself, if I had been given that feedback. As for the number of sources - I have observed in articles rated 'good article' (GA) that there are often two references for one piece of information, and sometimes more - three is not uncommon, and I have seen as many as eight. So it appears that other Wikipedia editors take a different view of multiple sources. As
Hzh said, I hoped that there were enough of what Wikipedia considers legitimate references to establish notability, and the other references provide evidence of particular information. I note that you are in Canada, and I would appreciate your advice on which newspapers are considered reliable there. I have the impression that some papers published in a particular town are actually distributed nationally, and are regarded as having serious journalism, much as in Australia with the Sydney Morning Herald and the Age in Melbourne - but as I am not familiar with Canada, I am unsure which are not credible sources. The IMDB reference was in the original article as an external source, where I gather that it is acceptable - I changed it to a reference in the Madeleine Is .... section, as the personal entry on IMDB did not seem to me at all useful as a source for the subject of the article, whereas the entry for the film does provide more information (eg about the film crew). If/when the subject's notability is considered established, others will no doubt edit the article, perhaps adding information and sources not available to me, perhaps deleting some.

Fails
WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Unlike
Group of Seven or
BRICS which are widely known and an actual existing club of countries, Next Eleven is only a hypothetical list of countries proposed by Goldman Sachs'
Jim O'Neill (economist) who has a penchant for such acronyms like BRIC, MIST, MINT
[17]. The coverage is only in Goldman Sachs papers or articles from its employees. O'Neil abandoned and replaced this list with another list called MIKT in 2011 and then again with MINT in 2014. the Authors bio already has this section
Jim O'Neill#Next Eleven. DBigXrayᗙ 19:08, 22 October 2018 (UTC)reply
Keep - I think your concerns are valid, but I think there's enough study of the group that it passes
GNG. In particular there are several academic papers and reports which study characteristics of the economies as a group:
[18][19][20][21][22]. I agree O'Neill could probably stand to cool it with all the new country groups, but this one seems to have gotten enough traction to keep. If it isn't a keep, it should redirect to O'Neill.
MarginalCost (

These papers you quoted although analyzes the economic parameters but none of them explain why this is notable, neither is this term widely cited in academia. The link [2] mentioned above for example only analyzes agrifood reports its findings as "BRICs and N-11 do not differ from other low, middle, or high income countries with respect to their import behaviour.", link [3], [4] and [5] analyzes the energy consumption, and [6] analyzed health spending. Such analysis are quite common and does not credit notability to the subject. Basically
WP:SIGCOV is still lacking.
I am ok with your suggestion of redirect to Jim O'Neil as a search term. --DBigXrayᗙ 13:35, 23 October 2018 (UTC)reply
I guess I just see it differently, and would say multiple academics have decided to study the article subject, and they have analyzed the characteristics of the group and evaluated how it compared to other classifications of emerging economies. You're right that they don't talk too much about the term itself and its history, development or etymology (though there is some coverage), but a) most of our articles don't do that, and b) the original objection was that it was all self-promotional and self-reference.
WP:SIGCOV is an odd objection to raise when these are pretty in-depth studies focusing mostly or entirely on the article subject.
I'm fine if consensus lands elsewhere, but in my mind these studies more than constitute significant coverage.

Keep - going with the academic sources found by
MarginalCost, the topic passes
WP:GNG quite easily as an economic grouping. The sources suggest 'Next 11' as a group is being studied by various scholars independent of Goldman Sachs and more importantly, covering different fields like agriculture, energy, environment and not just limiting to investment analysis as Jim O'Neill initially did to coin the term. There must be more such sources in other languages as well if someone digs in. As a terminology too, Next 11 has an
entry on
Investopedia, an educational website on finance and investment, which suggests the term could be encyclopedic. The article though needs to be worked on as it looks like a poorly written list at present. --Zayeem(talk) 11:32, 30 October 2018 (UTC)reply
I have already explained why these sources presented by MarginalCost fail notability.
The author of the hypothetical list Next 11 was a Goldman Sachs employee, any literature from Goldman Sachs will be considered Self Published in this case.
WP:LOTSOFSOURCES must be existing isn't a valid argument. English is used in most of these 11 countries, so language is not a concern.
Investopedia and other encyclopaedias are not a reliable source for defining notability. --DBigXrayᗙ 12:54, 30 October 2018 (UTC)reply
@
DBigXray: As an analogy, if there was debate over an article on, say, bees, and there were multiple academic studies on the reproductive habits and aerodynamics of bees, would you say those articles couldn't count for establishing the notability of bees, only for showing the notability of aerodynamics and reproduction? If not, then how are in-depth academic articles studying characteristics of N-11 any different? I'm open to being wrong here, and of course I'm with you that Investopedia isn't a reliable source, but if this topic has been the subject of serious academic study it deserves inclusion. I agree with you that it is not "widely cited in academia," but the threshold for GNG is not widespread use, but multiple independent reliable sources, which this has.
MarginalCost (
talk) 14:09, 30 October 2018 (UTC)reply
MarginalCost The bees comparison is clearly not applicable here. The crux of your argument above is since these academic papers exist that are in part related to the subject they are notable by default. Or in other words you are claiming existence of academic paper is enough for notability. This is not correct, it only confirms
WP:V (verification). There are numerous journals out there and all of them do not pass our notability criteria. Their existence may merit an entry into an existing article as a section (such as this case where the authors Bio is being suggested by AfD contributors.) The notability bar for having a standalone article is higher. If such a group is notable you will find extensive coverage in newspapers, Media, books etc. Take examples of BRIC, G7, G20. they are clearly notable and finding reliable source for them is never a struggle. --DBigXrayᗙ 15:23, 30 October 2018 (UTC)reply

Other sources: TownHall.com, The Hollywood Reporter, National Review, Deadline, CinemaBlend, Law360, and Daily Wire. 2. If you compare it to other entries in , which is the category it is part of, it has far more reliable sources and notability than most (I just compared a few at random). 3. The movie maker's choice to do no pre-screenings for critics noted in the article may be a reason for the lack of large critiques but it alone isn't enough to delete it. 4.

Declining the A7 tag does indeed seem appropriate

Winning any old prize or award is not significant and if that's enough to negate an A7 then it should be gotten rid of altogether.

Most of the content is duplicated in that article. The information in the list of notable people is duplicated the articles for individual counties in Guangdong, but we can move the list to the Siyi article if it's ethnically sensitive.

Weak Keep: If a publisher publishes multiple best-selling works
[31][32][33], then that's really not inherited notability, but a function of the core activity of that business, and
ORGSIG applies. Visible online in-depth coverage is woeful (are there RS Indian publishing trade press sources?), but it's at minimum
NOTEWORTHY as the most prolific publisher of low-end books
[34] which is credited as having been primarily responsible for launching the Indian mass-market fiction boom.
[35][36] (yes, they're both interviews, but Hachette is independent of Srishti, and questions asked in an interview in an RS can be treated as factual). Since its inclusion is a necessary part of the modern history of
book publishing in India, it should at most be encapsulated and redirected there, but if that's to be done it probably requires a more comprehensive/balanced expansion of that target. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~

The new and improved CORP policy has way too high standards. This publishing house is nowhere near it. Wikipedia needs reliable sources for any company to have its standalone article. Mere publishing bestselling books doesn’t grant it an entry to the encyclopedia. Those bestselling books shall have an article here not the publishing house. Having an article just because it produced some bestselling books is a perfect example of inherited notability.

WP:BLOG that openly welcomes contributors. The Cnet review, PC World review, and Tucows review all say "download this now!" as part of their downloads section and not as part of their reviews section, which really concerns me from a

Your example above seems rather naive. If the NYT reproduces someones blog verbatim and puts a disclaimer on it saying they haven't checked it and bear no responsibility for the content, would you contend it's still an NYT article and so we should treat it in the same way as other NYT articles? Not that is the exact case here, but surely the point is you respect NYT articles because of the trust you put in their checking etc. if the NYT stopped that and just started reproducing user submissions etc. it may still be an NYT article, but you'd probably stop respecting the quality of them. In this case the publishing guidelines contemporary to when that article was published do suggest some level of editing of submitted content, but seem primarily interested in writing style etc. this probably brings at least a reasonable question as to how reliable it is as a source overall. --

the NYT does this all the time. OpEds are exactly this. So are newswire articles. We assume the Times used their editorial judgement in selecting those articles.

SportingFlyertalk 21:55, 15 October 2018 (UTC)reply
If the NYT publish other peoples stuff with no checking and bearing no responsibility for content, then the fact that it appears in the NYT should mean absolutely nothing to us, we should look to the originator for their reputation for fact checking etc. It's the very fact that we believe NYT do some checking and do stand by the content which is what gives them a good reputation and makes us value them as a source. The contrast here is not the NYT it's a blog whose controls at the time are indicated by them to be they checked the articles not for content (beyond being in the field they were interested in), but for writing style. That's not a good standard to use. --

articles about almost 100 word processors. Many of them have less reviews than Atlantis Word Processor. Some of them don't have a single review. Many of them include links to non-English reviews. In general, you will hardly find in-depth reviews for non-top-end software. So what do you expect from the Atlantis Word Processor article? To me, this is a selective judgment and lack of consistency in applying the deletion criteria. I've just spent 5 minutes on Googling to find more reviews and notable articles on Atlantis Word Processor:
[40][41][42][43][44]. I would find more if I searched the Web Archive. There are also non-English reviews:

Keep but I can understand people thinking the references are too slight to support an article or that the text is (or at least used to be) tainted by conflict of interest. In my view the reviews meet the GNG criteria because they are sufficient in number, detail and independence. However, meeting the criteria only "creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject merits its own article" and so adopting more stringent requirements is perfectly allowable to keep our contents reduced to manageable amounts. However, in this case I think the article is an overall asset and the guidelines as written support such an assessment.

To a certain extent that's what we're figuring out. As a closing reviewer (I relisted because there's no current consensus, but it seems reasonably probable that consensus can be achieved) I would consider the following: On one hand
NOTABILITY IS NOT TEMPORARY so it doesn't matter if all the reviews are old, but on the other hand if it only received reviews immediately after release, perhaps
ONE EVENT may come into play. Getting a roomful of wikipedia editors to agree on what constitutes depth of coverage can an entertaining proposition. Obviously the more you can provide the better, but adding a number of passing mentions isn't going to help your position.

Some reviews should be better noted in the article, showing program strength and weaknesses, currently it appears spammy because the article just says "here's this product and here's what it does".

I'd go with that; indeed I would have redirected it as a first option. However in this case I was not sure of the appropriate target. The editor who created this is making other article on (to my mind) nn recordings by this artiste, & revering conversions to redirects. So it would probably have ended up here....

Delete - As a various-artists compilation, logically the album could be redirected to the label's article, but no such article exists despite its notable founder
Justin Broadrick. Whether or not the label is notable is a separate discussion, but since it has no article, this particular album must stand on its own. It has a one-paragraph introductory "review" at AllMusic which is merely an indicator of its existence, and the typical listings at retail/streaming sites. It has no other

Keep. It does appear to be a recognised settlement. Separate villages, even if part of another municipality for administrative purposes, as opposed to simple neighbourhoods of other settlements, are generally considered to be notable per

Necrothesp (

I think this falls under "Populated places without legal recognition". While it appears on a map and is populated, it has no specific governmental role or authority. On the website of the municipality of Brusio it's listed as 1 of 5 districts in the municipality. As far back as 1960 it was not a municipality, so it wouldn't qualify based on formerly being a legally recognized municipality. Additionally, I can't find any further information to expand the article beyond its current size.
Tobyc75 (
talk) 19:36, 22 October 2018 (UTC)reply
No, it doesn't, if you read the definition of that. Note that this also applies to most British villages or hamlets that are not parishes in their own right; however, they all have articles. A settlement does not have to have its own government or council to be a recognised populated place. It merely has to be recognised as an individual settlement. A settlement that is legally and/or administratively part of another municipality/parish/commune/whatever is still a recognised populated place. If we deleted all of the articles on villages that weren't actually administrative units in their own right we'd probably end up deleting half the articles on settlements on Wikipedia, which would certainly not benefit the project. We would also run into the problem that different countries have different administrative units in different sizes (e.g. Italy's comunes are generally considerably larger and cover more separate settlements than France's communes or England's parishes), which would result in bias for and against the inclusion of settlements in different countries. --

Fails
WP:NMG, with no charting singles, an empty lead and history section, and scarce mentions online.
Addressing the points brought up from the first nomination:
I've since done a lot of work to the article making it conform to our standards.
If standards mean a six-letter lead devoid of any useful information and a large discography section comprising primary iTunes links (and Qobuz, what's that?), I'm not sure what to say.
With the excellent work done by Michig and Davey
Define "excellent" and "work"? This is blind support for something unspecified.
Has contributed to major label albums such as Sony and Warner Brothers
So? We have many smaller artists who have contributed to said labels, but that does not mean they deserve a Wikipage if they fail the notability criteria.
The many sources linked on the nomination page
Linking sources which contains info isn't useful if it isn't used on the page. At the very least include those info in a separate "Career" or "History" section, which I fail to see here.
This page is not fit for mainspace viewing, seeing it lacks lots of information despite having "reliable sources". It's useless to link so many sources but not include them in the page (sticking them into discography songs doesn't count). At the very least, move it to a draft where it can be properly expanded.

Keep: yes, the many links to iTunes and Qobuz need to go, as does the tour section (she was the support act, not the headliner, so it's not notable). But Michig showed in the first AfD that there is coverage in Billboard and other music press, an AllMusic biography, and in addition to that there are pieces in The Guardian[72], The Line of Best Fit[73] and The Boston Globe[74].
Richard3120 (

In that case, maybe try fitting those sources into the text? Plainly pasting these sources here doesn't mean much if it's not utilised in the article properly.

It's useless to link so many sources but not include them in the page (sticking them into discography songs doesn't count). At the very least, move it to a draft where it can be properly expanded"
So the obvious answer to that statement is add a history section and do the necessary work - AFDing it is simply taking the lazy route and quite honestly it goes against the whole point of this website,
As noted by Michig and myself there are plenty of sources making this easily pass GNG although I do agree the Qubuzz and Itunes should go,
I'll add a history/personal life section within the 2 weeks as well as remove the Quzbuz (the Itunes cites are fine). –

The girls own site, them talking about themselves, alumni publication, indiscriminate puff piece. Reposting by another newly created promotional SPA does not change the underlying lack of notability. (Diana's restoration was entirely above board as first twins afd was closed as soft delete).

Delete. Restoration was acceptable, given that there wasn't enough participation in the first discussion to render it a hard delete rather than a soft one, but what the article still fails to do is properly establish that they're notable enough to have an article at all. The references here are 50 per cent
primary sources (their own self-published website, their own self-published tweet and a directory entry in IMDb) that cannot support notability — and of the three that are to media, one is an unrecoverable dead link to a student magazine (a class of sourcing we deprecate as much less carrying of notability than real general market media), while another is a Q&A interview in which they're talking about themselves in an advertorialized manner. The only source here that isn't a complete non-starter is Windspeaker — but while that's a start, it's not a magic finish all by itself as the only non-garbage source in play. As always, Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform on which people are entitled to have articles just because they exist — it's an encyclopedia, on which certain specific standards of achievement have to be attained, and certain specific standards of
reliable sourcing have to be surpassed, for an article to become earned. But the sourcing here simply isn't cutting the mustard, and nothing stated in the article body is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the sourcing from having to cut mustard.

behavioral guideline discourages off-wiki communication to notify editors, but the tweet to which you link did not emanate (as far as we know) from a Wikipedia editor. Rather, it's a plea from a celebrity to her fans to help retain
The Baker Twins, which her follower Dylan Curtis "apparently" restored. If you know of any Wikipedia directive that forbids such off-wiki entreaties by non-editors, please advise.

According to the

Comment search results yield results for the significance of the film in the history of the director and various actors involved in the film. It has also been translated as "My Tiny Wife" and other variations. It seems that the director and the actors involved have, after some hiatus, become reinvolved in film. The very significance experience of their involvement in this monumental film is important in explaining their relatively recent impacts. --
