This article fails the WP:BASIC criteria of WP:Notability (people). There are three dubious sources in Turkish that are decades old, and one primary source over a century old (which cannot contribute to notability). The article has no reliable or intellectually independent sources. The subject of the article only seems to be mentioned in the context of Armenian Genocide denial. I searched both Google and Google Books. Almost all Google results were Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks. The top Google result that isn't a mirror or fork is a blog that denies the Armenian Genocide. I could not find a single Google Books source in English or any other language besides Turkish that even mentions Kapamajian. There are no sources that can WP:VERIFY the notability of this article, which is why it should be deleted. Étienne Dolet ( talk) 20:42, 28 February 2019 (UTC) reply

The result was delete. The short version of this is that I read the delete proponents as having having stronger arguments.

While there may be some WP:OSE going on here, that is not in this case a very strong rebuttal to keep arguments, as this is a call to how these pages in general are designed and created. Rather, the stronger arguments are that indeed there isn't enough content to reasonably fill an article page. Concerns about notability are valid and well-taken, as this essentially links to just one person and isn't a proper disambiguation/set-index. The keep proponents, while making good arguments, link to a number of guidelines, etc., of which none explicitly state there must be such a page. Rather, these reference materials (such as Wikipedia:Name pages#Content, Wikipedia:WikiProject Anthroponymy/Standards, and Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not a dictionary#Minor differences) generally presume the existence of multiple names being listed, and in doing so undercut their utility as support for keeping this page. Although nobody mentioned it, I think the disparate sources of the given name and surname (Finnish and South-East Asian, respectively) would have made a good argument for keeping, and considered it as well when weighing the arguments here.

I don't read a consensus (or much discussion beyond two mentions) about what to do with this title (especially as regards Varma (surname)), so that is left to the editing community. If we end up with a more sizeable number of articles using this name, this should likely be revisited. ~ Amory ( utc) 15:45, 22 March 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Keep Articles on given names and surnames are a well established concept on Wikipedia. Also see Wikipedia:WikiProject Anthroponymy and MOS:APO. The nominator's reason for deletion was that "Wikipedia is not a dictionary nor a directory of names". However, WP:NOTDICT specifically states anthroponymy articles as an aspect of Wikipedia: stating that "An article about a given name or a surname is an anthroponymy article that contains a list of people with this name as well as encyclopedic content about the meaning, etymology and history of the name." MarkZusab ( talk) 00:11, 15 March 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete There are hundreds if not thounsands of given name articles... but if the name isn’t notable then there’s no use. If only one notable person has the name that’s useless too. Also this article doesn’t meet the standards for name articles. Trillfendi ( talk) 01:57, 15 March 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. As people have said above, the article meets WP:NNAME because it is properly sourced. The proposals to delete the article have not addressed the fact that the article meets these criteria. Alarichall ( talk) 22:34, 21 March 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: The support for keeping the article either invokes that "other similar stuff alrteaduy exists in Wikipedia" or misunderstands what the relevant essay on the Manual of Style guideline is about. WP:NNAME deals with name articles and is quite clear: A name article usually contains either a list of entries that link to other articles or a wikilink to a list article. An editor above explicitly misuses WP:NOTDICT by suggesting Keep although the quote they're citing is also quite clear: An article about a given name or a surname is an anthroponymy article that contains a list of people with this name as well as encyclopedic content about the meaning, etymology and history of the name". Emphasis added. "As well as" means that both encyclopedia content about the meaning and a list of people are needed. In so many words, a name article without a list of notable persons has no place in Wikipedia, on the basis of WP:NAD and WP:INDISCRIMINATE. The case for keeping the contested article is so weak as to be irrelevant. - The Gnome ( talk) 09:49, 22 March 2019 (UTC) reply

The result was merge and redirect to Singapore Premier League#Statistics. Not sure why this was extended, neither of the two keep votes offered any kind of sourcing to show that hat tricks in the singapore league have gained independent coverage to satisfy WP:NLIST. Under the name "Singapore Premier League", this competition has only been in existence for a year, so the merge arguments are clearly stronger. This should not preclude editors from creating another fork if they wanted to create a list that also includes the s league so long as they can show coverage to satisfy NLIST and apso avoid any WP:NOTSTATS concerns.

While we're listing invalid reasons for deletion, WP:OTHERSTUFF. To show notability of a list, there must be coverage that discusses the subject of the list, not just the entries on it. There's no indication that this is the case here. Sir Sputnik ( talk) 15:51, 12 March 2019 (UTC) reply
Yeah, whatever. So are you arguing that Singaporean hattricks are not notable even though other ones are with your OTHERSTuFF argument? Because EVERYONE above is suggesting it is notable enough to keep, probably because it is all notable stuff, it's just that half of them think the list is too short to waste a whole page on and want to put it on the same page as other information because, well I don't know why, I can only speculate maybe to save a tree. Half of them are saying keep the separate page if there are more hattricks in the list. Pretty sure that as time goes by there will be more hattricks in the list. End of the day if it's notable enough to keep then it can be as a list as it fulfills WP:LISTPURP. Club Oranje T 08:59, 13 March 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Weak Keep He does seem to be a well known Russian entrepreneur, but there is no real biographical information about him as such that I can see. There is coverage, it might be named drops but its a whole lot of different companies are asking him what's what about startup's advice, with a mix of substantial news companies. The second half of the supposed references all about the COMDI company, which makes the article promotional and would need to be copyedited out. scope_creep Talk 12:48, 2 March 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. But that is the issue here, there is no actual biographical information on this subject (either in the article, or available elsewhere). "Name drops" do not give notability.

  • Weak Delete. Per my search he doesn't pass GNG. I suspect Coping With Vision Loss: Maximizing What You Can See and Do might pass NBOOK (e.g. held by 162 libraries - plausible there are independent reviews - though Hunter House Publishers raises perhaps some questions) - but I haven't found independent reviews (hard to filter with all the crud that is out there on commercial books).

Comment The Japanese version of the article has 7 sources - 2 are sources within Japanese WP, 2 are to Degica's own site. Then there are cites to 4gamer and famitsu. The final cite is a note and not a reference. 4gamer and Famitsu seem like RS, but via google translate, neither appear to be actually ABOUT the company, and only mention it.

Fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOL. Sources used in this article simply don't establish notability and a search for others turned up nothing. The references used are obituaries in local newspapers (only one of which is his); unlinked and sometimes untitled local newspaper articles; passing mentions in a book; and a listing in Who's Who in American Politics, which has a lower notability threshold than Wikipedia (you can pay to be included GPL93 ( talk) 19:43, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply

  • There's probably a good reason to either create a redirect for the new name (the product seems to keep getting re-branded) on to do a rename (leaving a redirect). The name actually seems a little clumsy at first glance (but perhaps its me). There's also a question of where it should be Microsoft Azure ... or simply Azure ... ... that sort of a bigger question than this subject and there's a couple of precedents both ways. AfD isn't the right place for that discussion, though it is sometimes where that decision may be made. Djm-leighpark ( talk) 23:29, 16 March 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Keep I see this as a history article. Microsoft Imagine existed for a period of time. Keeping it means people looking for information about it will be able to find this article. What is needed is a description and Wikilink within the Imagine article, directing readers to Microsoft Azure. And perhaps the Timeline at that article could mention the fold-in of Imagine.

  • I would not really agree with the historic. As far as I can tell the offering has been rebranded and repackaged as a Software as a Service application on Azure so is very much alive. I believe it is an application that can be provisioned on Azure, but not a core part of Azure infrastructure such as Azure files, Azure DNS, Azure DNS Private Zones or Azure Active Directory for example. Still agree with the keep which is primary AfD purpose. And a paragraph explaining the packaging to Azure would be good short term with a re-visit later. Needs a good independent review to source.

The result was no consensus. In light of the recent prior nomination and relistings I'm going to go ahead and close this. The prior close invited renomination, so it was reasonable to try again. At this point though, I'd recommend WP:RENOM, though just an essay, to anyone considering another go in the near future.

Fails WP:NFILM.

Round Table, BR Ambedkar Caravan are not remotely reliable sources. ☒N

Some random pieces about death of Dalit students have been cited in the article but I don't see about how they boost the notability of the subject, which is a documentary series. ☒N

So, I conducted a WP:BEFORE. Accordingly:--

I spot a few trivial one-liner name drops over sources like this and this. Does not lend to significant coverage; required for passing GNG. ☒N

There's another one-liner over this news-piece which is more significant than the two above but that's a blatant opinion piece (see this RSN thread as to the source not distinguishing between op-eds and objective reporting) and hence, is of much reduced value. ☒N

Scroll has covered the series over one of their articles but they have been unanimously documented to be not a RS for these areas. ☒N

That leaves us with it's plot-coverage by the local city-section of The Hindu; which is hardly enough to make it pass GNG/NFILM. WBG converse 18:25, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply

Does this merely scratch the surface of notability? This is some preacher who barely got any coverage before he was being, you know, accused of doing, you know, things with other people's bodies. As valereee, put it, "He's literally in the MIDDLE of the biggest news of his life and it's getting coverage only in ChristianPost.com and CharismaNews.com and GospelHerald.com". That's a good argument for deletion: lack of coverage of the subject in reliable sources.

Article makes quite the claim of notability with 20 million subscribers but there's nothing to back it up. Nothing more than corp/ WP:ARTSPAM that lacks in any in depth, meaningful coverage in English or Arabic (I asked a native speaker, Alaa, to help.) While we don't use follower count for anything, I would expect a company claiming such significant clients and subscribers to have more than 230 twitter followers, it's basically a scam utilizing wikipedia to legitimize itself.

I don't see any coverage other than the standard business churnalism. There appears to be some non-trivial coverage in Data Center Frontier regarding Netrality and other companies' performance during Hurricane Harvey, but I can't find any information on their editorial policies leading me to suspect that this source is not reliable. The article as written is a rather impressive length given the lack of citable information, but on closer inspection it almost entirely consists of listing various properties that the company has acquired. Does not meet WP:NORG, WP:GNG. signed, Rosguill talk 19:08, 28 February 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. As a co-creator of this article, I oppose its deletion. In reference to meeting notability guidelines ( WP:NORG, WP:GNG), Netrality has seen substantial coverage from multiple independent sources requiring editorial integrity (BizJournals, Data Center Knowledge, Data Center Frontier). I believe this coverage more than proves that Netrality Properties is a sufficiently notable organization, and is a valid subject for a Wikipedia article dedicated solely to it. I would contest that Rosguill's nomination for deletion is based more on challenging the size and reputation of the publications covering Netrality than the content of the article itself--yet under the notability guideline that they reference, it is made clear that arbitrary standards should not be used to create a bias which favors larger organizations. Other real estate investment trust organizations similar to Netrality with equal or less press coverage have yet to be marked for deletion, which leads me to believe that this article may have been targeted solely because it was in the New Pages Patrol.
If there are any steps that can be taken to improve the article's encyclopedic status, please let me know.
Thank you, Mikiepc ( talk) 23:33, 28 February 2019 (UTC) reply
  • I have no issue with the size of the publications being used, my problem with them is that they seem to be trade magazines with opaque editorial policies that are largely republishing comments from PR statements from the company–such sources are regularly ignored at AfD, and WP:NORG specifically says Trade publications must be used with great care. While feature stories from leading trade magazines may be used where independence is clear, there is a presumption against the use of coverage in trade magazines to establish notability as businesses frequently make use of these publications to increase their visibility. I would appreciate the opinions of other editors as to whether or not the sources are reliable, but have seen little evidence of their reliability based on reviewing the pieces attached to the article. Regarding the idea that this article was singled out for deletion because it was in the new page queue, well, that is the purpose of the goggles virtually all new articles go through NPP, articles that are not judged to be notable are nominated for deletion, sometimes things slip through, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. signed, Rosguill talk 00:19, 1 March 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Thank you for your reply. I understand the suspicion of media coverage from trade publications, yet have seen no evidence of the aforementioned pubs lacking clear independence or editorial integrity. And though articles do occasionally slip through, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS also states that "identifying articles of the same nature that have been established and continue to exist on Wikipedia may provide extremely important insight into the general concept of notability". In this spirit, I would encourage you to consider the numerous other real estate investment trust articles present on Wikipedia with equal or less media coverage. I believe that if these many articles exist in accordance with the WP:NORG & WP:GNG guidelines, the Netrality article is more than notable enough to exist.

  • Delete (redirect also acceptable, though I don't see him as a likely enough search term in his own right to really make that necessary.) Actors, as always, are not automatically guaranteed Wikipedia articles just because they have IMDb profiles — and that's especially the case for actors who had just one role as a child before deciding not to stick with acting. If he had a stronger notability claim, such as having won or been nominated for a Genie Award for the performance, then things would be different — but if only notability claim he's got is "was in a film", then we need a lot more than just a profile in a film directory to make him notable for that.

  • There are very few Native American actors of note in Hollywood and it can be quite difficult for them to get any traction in that industry. Tafoya is both an actor and a champion knife fighter who is recognized for both his acting roles and as himself on perhaps the most popular episode of Deadliest Warrior. He also recently starred in a touring musical theatre production about Sitting Bull. These things may not be that impressive compared to a Tom Cruise, but in the Native American community he is a person worthy of some recognition on Wikipedia. I am looking to source more material and citations with better references where possible. Would appreciate for the sake of Wiki diversity some leeway on letting this Article continue. That is my suggestion, though I know it is not up to me. Thank you for considering this. -- Jay Odin ( talk) 02:49, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply

          • Thus far, there are four notable publications and IMDB. Sites dedicated to Deadliest Warrior mention him frequently, with reference to the martial arts championships. Again, it must be kept in perspective that full blooded Native American talent often appears in productions directly related to that lineage and as such usually in featured roles.

WP:BLP of a writer, whose claims of notability are not reliably sourced, and an equally poorly sourced article about her debut novel. Her biography cites no independent references at all -- the only "reference" present here at all is her book's own advertising trailer on YouTube, which does not represent an independent or notability-conferring source as she was directly affiliated with its creation. This has been tagged for referencing problems since 2016 without improvement, and going back into the article history it has never contained any other references at all. Meanwhile, the novel article contains no sources whatsoever, and has been tagged for referencing and notability issues even longer than her BLP has.
As always, writers are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist: the notability test is the reception of media coverage (book reviews, etc.) which verifies that the notability claims are true. Furthermore, the article was created by an WP:SPA who has never made a single contribution to Wikipedia on any topic but Elizabeth Haran and her novels, so there's a potential (but not confirmed) conflict of interest here as well. (Note also that if this does get deleted, several of her other novels are in place as redirects, so don't forget to clean those out as G8s.) Bearcat ( talk) 18:52, 6 March 2019 (UTC) reply

Changing to keep. Searches at TROVE and AUSTLIT and mutlilingual google search results definitely confirm that the subject is an accomplished AUTHOR with their books being translated into multiple languages, and held in mutiple languages in multiple libraries even in Australia. There are also reviews in multiple languages but with google translate it is very hard to ascertain the quality, reliability, and indendence of the review. For some reason there is just not much about the subject in English. The subject seems pretty well known to german, polish, french, spanish, and czech readers. Perhaps the subject should be "throwing a shrimp on the barbie" along with Paul Hogan. Some of the individual book articles can probably go, but the author's article I think is a definite keep.

  • Reluctant delete: although her books have been translated into a lot of other languages, I can find nothing independent written about her. Even her own "official website" at http://www.elizabethharan.com seems to have been hijacked - it's in a non-European language and doesn't look as if it relates to her at all. There are articles in German and Spanish wikipedias, both tagged as in need of references. Sad, but unless someone can find sources she doesn't appear to merit an article.

  • Keep Delete both. I could find no media coverage on the web, articles have no sources and there is nothing to support notability. Unoc ( talk) 12:44, 10 March 2019 (UTC) reply
Rescission of delete both. My search skills are wavering. Any unique content from A Woman For All Seasons should be merged into bio... Unoc ( talk) 08:55, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Comment I have found some articles in newspapers from Adelaide. As her books were published initially in German, Russian, Czech and other European languages, I will try to check the titles in those languages for reviews or coverage of her. I find it hard to believe that an author of 17 books published in multiple languages does not have enough reviews or coverage somewhere, to enable her to meet WP:NAUTHOR.

My thoughts too - maybe I did not look far enough... Aoziwe ( talk) 14:10, 13 March 2019 (UTC) reply
User:Aoziwe, User:RebeccaGreen spelling her name with an s - Elisabeth - helps with German searches.
Thanks, I had thought about trying that, though German sources with the z spelling were coming up, just not reliable ones. I might try Der Spiegel again with the s spelling. RebeccaGreen ( talk) 00:44, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply
I found her in the Münchner Merkur, but sort of by luck. I've never tried to run a news archive search in German. But maybe I'll try doing that . There must be more sources in countries where she's a best-seller. E.M.Gregory ( talk) 01:02, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete her novel , it lacks significant sourcing sufficient ot support a freeseanding article, but is included in BIO page, so no need to redirect this title, a phrase that which had had many other used over the years. E.M.Gregory ( talk) 16:13, 13 March 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Keep per WP:HEY. In addition to the significant improvements already done following the nomination, I've just added a few additional refs. With regard to her novel, consider either a delete or a merge. Note: I had never seen two AFDs that link to a single AFD page. Interesting! XavierItzm ( talk) 10:47, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply

Absolutely no coverage of this record label during its existence. The only mention I could find was a 2017 closure of a completely different business. Fails WP:NCORP. Jalen D. Folf (talk) 01:58, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply

Fails WP:GNG. Of the four sources used in the article, one is an untitled and unlinked local newspaper article, one is a passing mention in a book on the history of Alexandria, LA (2 total mentions over 305 pages); and the other two are from a personal family history blog.

  • Delete. See WP:MEMORIAL. Local Louisiana landowner who doesn't seem to be notable, especially if you're not from that specific rural region. Same issues with the article about his son Morgan W. Walker Jr. (also should be nominated for AfD), which has only 2 sources and reads like an obituary from a local non-notable newspaper. — Stevey7788 ( talk) 02:06, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply
@ Stevey7788: Good call, I've now nominated his son's article for deletion as well. Best, GPL93 ( talk) 13:41, 14 March 2019 (UTC) reply
