WP:SYNTH; no need to relist. Sandstein 14:48, 14 April 2021 (UTC)reply
This is an overgeneralized article that is basically about four hot springs. These “Native Americans are spiritual people” articles are generally not helpful and at times border on cultural appropriation. Where a specific tribe used a specific spring for spiritual purposes, and that use is public, that can be noted at the appropriate article. A gathering of romanticized Woo is original research and not useful. My suggestion is that the content on individual springs be moved to the individual article, and the sources used to support the overbroad conclusions that are
WP:SYNTH can also be moved to individual articles.

Delete This article takes references of dispirit events and tries to

Keep The nomination's talk of appropriation is ironic because it proposes to re-use this content elsewhere and then delete the edit history, so denying the authors their proper attribution. It says that there are just four springs but the page does not yet include the Yellowstone area. This
paper, for example, explains that when that land was appropriated by the US government, it was the subject of myth-making to cover-up the native history and so make the place seems newly discovered and safe. We should preserve a full history of this matter per our policy
WP:PRESERVE.

Comment by nominator: The issues surrounding a place like Yellowstone (which has dozens if not hundreds of hot springs and geysers, by the way) is a good example of precisely why Native presence needs to be discussed in individual articles, not some generic and inaccurate overview filled with New Age romanticism. This article, done “properly”, would really be nothing more than “List of hot springs with documentable Native American cultural significance” and would contain dozens of locations. I don’t see a need to destroy attribution. We can take the content for specific hot springs in this article and move it to the article for the individual teacher, and an edit some reason such as, “moving content from [attributed authors name] deleted page” and that should handle the attribution matter.

Delete -
WP:SYNTH, agree with merging parts of this article to individual articles. Comment - I am leaning towards
WP:TNT/delete, but will wait a bit before !voting. The article is centered on 4 examples in the U.S. and does not mention indigenous peoples, nor hot springs in Canada, Mexico or Central America. It is written in the past tense, as though Native peoples are not living cultures. It is simultaneously too general and too specific. It over-generalizes NA’s, and does not convey the diversity and differences between peoples. It is too specific as only 4 springs are given as examples, yet there are over 1,600 in existence in the US alone? A lot of the New Age-y wording has now been removed, thankfully.
Andrew Davidson provided an excellent source that critiques the fallacy that Native peoples “feared the geyser regions as inhabited by evil spirits”. I’ve added that source to the Further reading section.

Comment I don't think
WP:SYNTH applies, because the article is essentially a recreation of the Lund article, which is from a peer reviewed publication, and not an original synthesis of multiple sources. I agree there are issues with presenting this topic as is. I have placed a note on some relevant wikiproject pages related to First Peoples. I request that we re-list this for another round, to allow for time for editors who work in this area to comment or perhaps rescue or suggest a merge target for this article.

Nez Perce and maybe
Missoula, Montana; the sentences on Saratoga Springs that have not already been included in the
Saratoga Springs, New York article can be put in the Springs section there; and the section on Hot Springs, Arkansas can go to the Natural spring section of
Hot Springs, Arkansas. I'd suggest any other text people think worth keeping can be merged into the
Hot spring article, though I'm not sure there's much there.

A band that appears to fail
WP:BAND. I can find passing mentions of them in the context of the The Transformers: The Movie soundtrack that one of their songs is featured on (such as the cited IGN article) but no significant coverage dedicated specifically to the band. I can't find evidence that NRG shared the stage with any of the artists listed, either. The article doesn't make any claims of notability apart from the Transformers song, as neither the "Formation" nor the "Post NRG" sections contain any noteworthy information. It's probably also telling that the articles on the Transformers film and its soundtrack are the only Wikipedia articles that link to this one.
I do recognize that as they were active in the 80s, significant offline coverage (or simply hard-to-find online coverage) may exist, so if anyone can find any, I will of course be happy to reconsider.

I thought, without having followed every discussion in detail, that there was a general (not universal) consensus to merge to the star when the star was notable or there was a multi-planet system notable beyond just the notability of one planet, but merge to the planet when the star was not individually notable. This star does not appear to be notable in itself, whereas the planet *may* be notable.

I agree completely. So I think we should just start merging the articles in situations like this one without having any AfD or related discussion at all.

How is a star with a notable planet not therefore itself notable? Given the countless number of stars, aside from being unusually big or serving as an historical reference point in the sky, what else would serve as a point of notability?
BD2412T 00:42, 7 April 2021 (UTC)reply
Well in my opinion, the issue is not whether the star is notable. It's how articles about stars with exoplanets should be organized. We have seen a number of articles about stars which would not be notable were it not for the fact that they have exoplanets. Those pages tend to repeat much of the information that is also available in the separate article about the exoplanet, because that information has to be repeated to establish the notability of the star. So why not put the information about the star and all of its planets in a single article? That will reduce the amount of duplicated text and references (which makes it easier to keep the articles current and mutually consistent in the future), and provide a single place to find all the info about an entire stellar system. Since very little is known about most individual exoplanets at this point, and additional information is apt to be gathered very slowly, a single article about the entire system is not apt to be excessively long. I see no point in maximizing the number of separate Wikipedia articles by making a set of articles each of which has the minimum amount of notability to survive a AfD debate. Let's choose quality over quantity.
PopePompus (
talk) 01:05, 7 April 2021 (UTC)reply
I agree, but it seems to me that the case for notability of the planet in this case is based on its proximity to the star rather than some specific quality of the planet.
BD2412T 05:14, 7 April 2021 (UTC)reply
What then are you recommending? Leaving both articles as they are? Merging them (if so, with what name for the merged article)? Deleting both articles (star and planet)? Something else?
PopePompus (
talk) 05:22, 7 April 2021 (UTC)reply
Notability is established by the existence of secondary and tertiary sources as described at
WP:GNG. This policy is not easy to apply to astronomical objects and there is a specific policy giving guidelines about how to assess
notability for them. I have argued that the policy is difficult to apply to exoplanets and it has certainly been widely ignore, but the basics are still there: being the subject of multiple non-trivial published works. The policy specifically describes that notability is
not inherited, that is something is not notable purely because of association with something else which is notable. Hence a star is not necessarily notable because it has a notable planet. Looking again at the policy, notability is not established by the properties of the planet or star and especially not just by its existence, but by the attention paid to it in reliable sources. Again, this works better for people, fiction, etc. than to massive balls of rock or plasma in space, but it is how Wikipedia works. If an exoplanet, for example, has particularly unusual properties of some sort then it will generally have some coverage in at least multiple peer-reviewed journals, and hopefully some more general media also. All this doesn't necessarily resolve this discussion, but it does answer the question you asked.

There is something very peculiar about the way the referencing is framed in this article. They are all opaquely within an archive framework, making it harder to identify immediately the press release and PR nature of the references. In the first dozen or saw references I have found only one that is about Cohen and is in a reliable source and is significant coverage. This is
WP:ADMASQ with a good smattering of
WP:BOMBARD. All we see here is Cohen's resumé. If she has inherent notability we need to see what that might be.Otherwise she just appears be a

Because they have a declared
WP:COI they cannot work on this as an article. It can then be resubmitted for review and be accepted or not on its future merits. I do not believe I am entitled to close this discussion myself since I initiated it, so ask for a Speedy close in this manner.

The result was no consensus to delete. The argument for (weakly) keeping this article is premised on the subject's advocacy, rather than their scientific achievements, so a somewhat higher bar of sources is required. Whether that is met is questionable in this case, but after extended time for discussion there is a clear absence of consensus for deletion.

Delete. GScholar citability is too low to indicate satisfying
WP:PROF yet. The claims to passsing
WP:GNG for social activism do not stand up to the actual sruitiny of sources. The Science article
[5] mentioned by Beccaynr above contains a brief quote by the subject. Ref number 2 in the article
[6] is a dead link but in any event it was to a forum that she founded, so the source would not have been independent anyway. Ref number 3
[7] is a proceedings report co-authored by the subject herself, so again not an independent source. Ref number 4
[8] is behind a paywall so I wasn't able to access it (perhaps someone else has better luck). Ref number 5
[9] is co-authored by the subject herself so again not independent. Ref number 6
[10] contains just a brief mention of her. Ref number 9
[11] is again co-authored by the subject herself.
WP:GNG requires significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources, where "significant" means that the coverage "addresses the topic directly and in detail". I am not seeing anything here coming even close to satisfying this requirement, based on the sources provided so far. Some people want to see at least three examples of significant coverage for satisfying
WP:GNG. Personally, I'd be satisfied with two. Here I'm not seeing even one for the moment.

CommentWP:BASIC states, If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability, and I have added sources, including
news coverage of her work with Parent in Science, as well as
commentary from the Fondation l'Oreal. The
reference 4 mentioned above includes, (translated) "We created the hashtag #MaternidadenoLattes, structured a letter and sent it to CNPq last year. We had support from more than 30 scientific societies. Now, the board accepted the suggestion and promised to change the curriculum for the coming months - explains Fernanda Staniscuaski, coordinator of Parent in Science, professor at UFRGS and mother of Bruno, six, Samuel, three, and Gabriel, five months."

Thank you for providing the relevant excerpt from ref 4. Still, at the most we have four independent references here (Science, MSN, ref 4 and the Fondation l'Oreal), each providing a brief mention of the subject. Even if each of these references had provided in-depth coverage, most editors in most AfDs would argue for deletion. I have never seen an article kept in an AfD as passing
WP:GNG or
WP:BIO on the basis of several brief mentions only, without even a single in-depth source covering the subject. That's not how
WP:BASIC is met. We need at least some in-depth independent sources and, if only one such source is available, a much much larger number of sources non-indepth biographical coverage.
Nsk92 (
talk) 10:21, 10 April 2021 (UTC)reply
I think these references are more than a brief mention, because they offer context and/or commentary about her work, so they appear to support
WP:BASIC notability. She is the founder of the Parent in Science movement and leader of various outreach activities that receive coverage, as well as the lead author of a study that has received coverage, so the coverage of her often appears to be more in-depth than a trivial mention, and now there are two sources identified that include some biographical information. And the quote I pulled from reference 4 was representative but not the only focus on her, e.g. "Preliminary data from the survey conducted by Parent in Science show that 59% of the interviewed scientists perceived the impact of motherhood as negative for the researcher's career, and 22% see it as very negative. In addition, 51% affirm that they are the only ones responsible for the care of the child, without the help of companions or family members. Only at the end of 2017 did a specific law come into force to guarantee scientists with research support grants the right to maternity leave without loss of financial aid. Very recent advances, highlights Professor Fernanda: - It was important to bring data to discuss the issue of motherhood and science with the general public. [...] There is still a lot to discuss."

Original article creator had this restored to draft by
C.Fred in March, following it's deletion in December 2020 as failing GNG. They added two sources, covering the subject's videos for the video game Hitman 3, with only light focus on the individual themselves. This puts the article currently at 3 reliable sources, only one with a strong in-depth focus (Verge). The creator then immediately put it back to mainspace, and I later draftified it again. It was sent to AFC and declined. On the talk page, the creator asked the decliner,
Berrely about the decline, and Berrely took a neutral stance suggesting
Sdkb move it back if they were sure. I immediately opposed, at which point Sdkb moved it to mainspace anyways "Per talk" and replied it would have to go back to AFD. So here we are. Nothing has changed about this subject's notability since December, no content has been added. The only change is that some videos about Hitman 3 got coverage. --

Ferret, the subject is RTGame, so I don't see how you arrive at the idea that an article about RTGame "says nothing at all about the subject". Is your view that it doesn't count unless it discusses Condren's private life? He's a video game streamer, so naturally what draws coverage is his video game streaming, but it still counts toward GNG.And I'm not sure what point you're trying to make by emphasizing that Kotaku/Polygon were covering the same stream. That was in January 2021, whereas The Verge was in July 2019, so
WP:BLP1E very clearly does not apply. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 04:40, 9 April 2021 (UTC)reply
Not at all that it has to cover his personal life, but something, anything, about him and the channel specifically rather than just the video. My position won't shift with just these 3 sources. Someone is not notable for two "news cycles", one set from industry-specific dailies. First, WP:GNG does not set any sort of "If there's 2 reliable sources, they are in!" bar. Very specifically, GNG outlines how a topic can be presumed notable, and in all cases a discussion may decide otherwise. I maintain this individual is not notable for encyclopedic purposes in the long term at this time. --

Quotes like "The joy of games like Hitman for me is that they’re presented with an incredibly straight face, but allow you to do incredibly silly things" (from Polygon) to me clearly help illustrate RTGame's style of play, and are thus saying something about the channel. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. Regarding GNG, yes, it has a provision for invoking
WP:IAR, just like every policy/guideline on Wikipedia, but I do not consider this an extraordinary circumstance worthy of invoking IAR. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 20:51, 9 April 2021 (UTC)reply
GNG doesn't have a provision to "invoke IAR". Invoking IAR would be to completely ignore GNG in the first place. GNG itself states that even if a topic meets the rough guidelines a discussion may decide otherwise, as notability is simply presumed under GNG and not guaranteed. That's not IAR, that's applying GNG itself. --

The result was redirect to
Aziziye. While bulk nominations like this are frequently inappropriate, these nominations do seem appropriate given the history behind their creation and the content they contain. This is affirmed because, on the whole, most participants also discuss them as a group as opposed to making distinctions between individual members. As such a group close is appropriate.Those suggesting these articles should be kept, beyond those suggesting a procedural keep addressed above, do so on the basis that the articles satisfy the
geographic features notability guideline. Those suggesting that these articles be deleted suggest that the term that applies to these places does not meet the guideline and that there are not other available sources that would allow them to meet the GNG. Many of these editors also suggest that these topics may be adequately covered as part of another article rather than by having a standalone article.A key element of this discussion is how to translate the Turkish word which labels them. Ultimately there is no consensus about what this translation should be and this proves a key dividing line between those suggesting they be kept as independent articles and those who suggest they be deleted (or redirected). Given this lack of consensus and the general lack of other sourcing or means to suggest notability, the weighted consensus of participants is to redirect these articles. A final (non-binding) suggestion: some participants did suggest that some of these places have adequate sourcing to justify independent articles. To the extent that this is true, it might be easier to demonstrate this initially by expanding coverage at
Aziziye before restoring an independent article.

Delete All or Redirect all to the district - These articles were
mass-created by Lugnuts through
WP:MEATBOT-style editing without any consensus having formed first in favour of making them. When later discussed at
Lugnut's most recent ANI discussion the clear consensus was against their being made, nor was there any consensus in favour when this was discussed at
WP:TURKEY, yet Lugnuts is
still making them now. The original bad referencing (which at least contained a population) has been replaced with a table/map (a source that
WP:GEOLAND excludes) and hence the article contains no actual information about the supposed neighbourhood. It is far from clear whether Turkish Mahalles are actually legally-recognised populated places - the term translates as "neighbourhood" or "quarter".
This (admittedly old) academic text describes them as being sub-village units, and not necessarily being actual settlements (see the section on "scattered pattern mahalles") and also as potentially being very small urban divisions. If you look at page 51 of the same book you can see estimates as high as 70,000 for the total number of Mahalle and similar units in Turkey, many of which have tiny (possibly zero?) populations. Even the source used on the page does not explicitly describe them as Mahalle - instead it just gives a count for the number of Mahalle in the district and then a list of names with the same number, making it unclear whether this is actually what is described.
In summary - fails
WP:GEOLAND as it is sourced only to a map/table, is unclear whether it even is populated (no population is described), is a neighbourhood, provides no evidence of legal recognition as required for presumed notability under
WP:GEOLAND, has no evidence of
WP:GNG being passed, its creation was a failure of
WP:MASSCREATION/
WP:MEATBOT, and consensus has been against the creation of these one-sentence single-source Geostubs when we've discussed them at ANI.

WP:GEOLAND. It is unclear that a mahalle is in every case a meaningful populated community equivalent to a village - the text cited above describes four types of mahelle of which only one is a "village-type". I am also concerned that many of the names above appear to be common Turkish surnames. After the Iranian "village" case we should be cautious.

Yukarıyeniköy, Refahiye is an interesting article because the person who expanded it got rid of the source Lugnuts used to create it saying it was unreliable. That source is the same type of source used for all of the above articles. That a few percent of these articles can be rescued does not justify their mass-creation.
WP:MASSCREATION is pretty clear that consensus is needed before mass-creating articles, and

You need to get your facts right because the source removed by
Nyxaros was the one I mistakenly added to the article, not the one used by Lugnuts which is still there and can be used again, as can the sources found by Nyxaros. The ANI discussion you mention was not concluded so there hasn't been a consensus. How have you calculated "a few percent" and can we see have the precise result of your calculation? WP:MASSCREATION and WP:MEATBOT are parts of the BOT policy, not
WP:EDIT which is the site's policy for editing by humans. This site is an encyclopaedia per
WP:5P1 and information about villages in Turkey constitutes useful and valid knowledge which should be included especially as the articles can be expanded, as at Yukarıyeniköy.

WP:MEATBOT is clear - if you edit like a bot (e.g., by copying and pasting exactly the same sentence with a word changed into multiple articles at a rate of one every 90 seconds) then the bot policy applies to what you are doing. As I said, it is a source that was removed of the same unreliable type as used by Lugnuts to create these articles - even Lugnuts acknowledged that their original source was unreliable, the problem is that they've replaced it with an equally bad source (a map/table which is excluded by
WP:GEOLAND). "A few percent" is supported by the search above - you cannot just throw a telephone directory at other editors and say "here, some of these people are notable". Not to put too fine a point on this, but the ANI discussion was hatted due to Lugnuts posting a very concerning message on their talk page, it was very clear at that point what the outcome was going to be given all the !votes telling him to stop at that point, and calling for their autopatrolled status to be removed due to their actions. Lugnuts' situation invites sympathy, but is not a free pass to continue mass-creating articles.

Keep not going to go through every article (doubt the nom did), but looking at a sample of the Turkish-language equivalent articles these appear to be villages or townships of ~100 people. E.g. the second one on the list apparently has a distinct culture originating from the Black Sea.
[12]. If these were small villages in a country that spoke English I'm sure there would be no doubt about an article existing.

We do routinely delete similar stubs for places in the United States which were created by an editor who went through a government database assuming that every "populated place" listing was a legally-recognized unincorporated community. Many, such as
Rice Fork Summer Homes, California and
Ettawa Springs, California (currently at AfD), are nothing more than resorts or groups of summer homes that fail
WP:GEOLAND. Many also end being listed within a county-level article instead of being kept as a stub. The
California GNIS cleanup task force has been working on this for nearly a year. –

delete all per
WP:TNT On the basis of the one link given as a source, they all fail verification: following the link goes to the same page for every one of them, which shows a map of a small town which obviously cannot contain all of these articles even as individual houses. I am not impressed by the parallel Turkish articles, which have the flavor of similar mass production. It's not good enough to say "they could be expanded," because at the moment any "expansion" is essentially to write the whole thing over from scratch, using some other source with actual information about the place. At present the only usable information in the articles, maybe, is the name. At the moment, given the outcomes of reviews of similar geostubs over the years, it is reasonable to assume that the information is completely untrustworthy and that there is no reason to believe that any of these places exist, and we shouldn't have articles which nobody can tell whether they are at all true.

TNT is a pretty persuasive essay for anyone who's ever had to deal with one of these mass Geostub creation cases. All it takes is one misunderstood source and (like in the Dr Blofeld and C46 cases) we're looking at many thousands of problematic articles. At some point it just isn't OK for an editor to say "here, here's 30,000+ geostubs each of which took me 90 seconds to make, some of them are notable - it's your job to spend a week on each of them finding out which".

Redirect per Dlthewave and Mangoe. Creation of microstub articles really doesn't help the encyclopaedia. The link they're referenced to is blocked by my internet provider for security reasons, but assuming this goes to a map, maps are not reliable sources for determining whether
WP:GEOLAND is indeed met, so we can't even
WP:Verify if they're legally recognised populated places. My vote would be different if these hadn't been batch created and we had to determine the notability of a specific place, but there's enough doubt about the information, sourcing, and whether they actually meet the SNG that we can't really keep these as standalone articles .

The locations of about 16 of the 72 “neighbourhoods” in the Aziziye municipality are shown on the map and the names of all 72 “neighbourhoods” are shown in the table, but only their names.

Reywas92Talk 17:51, 7 April 2021 (UTC)reply
We do want to have content about these places, and the question is really whether this content is better served in separate articles or in a single place. The current setup is definitely not optimal: as far as I can see, these articles are all batch-created and contain – apart from an underpopulated infobox, a reference and a navbox – a single sentence which reads X is a
neighbourhood in the
Aziziye District of
Erzurum Province in Turkey. This is effectively only saying that the places exist and that they're neighbourhoods. Collectively, the information in all these articles is equivalent to a list of 54 items, which is scattered across 54 pages. In my opinion, it will be better if this content is presented in a list in the district article, with the individual pages then redirected to it. An issue with the existing articles is that they describe those places as neighbourhoods – I don't see anything in the source saying what those places are – in fact, they appear to be more like hamlets – so the description is effectively
WP:OR. This favours redirecting: it will be easier to clarify and explain the status of those places in the single article where they're listed, instead of having to edit all 54 individual articles. On an unrelated note, it appears that the creator has sent
invitations for this AfD to several editors, at least one of whom
[14] has previously expressed support for his microstubs, but has neglected to notify any of those who have been more critical. –

Comment let's compare
Ağcakent, Aziziye to
Leopold Township, Perry County, Indiana, a geographic entity in the US of "similar" prominence. Leopold Township's article has minimal sourced content and substantial problems with being up-to-date: the 2010 US census data for location and population, a local history book for one sentence on the name of the township, an unsourced list of cemeteries, a few external links (one of which now contains information in Spanish on asthma) and various higher-level divisions (school districts, state house seat data has been incorrect for ten years) that contain the township. Ağcakent has none of that content. There is no population and no GPS coordinates; it is unclear whether this is a stand-alone village or a part of a built-up town. There is no sign of when the name started to be used. Google Maps can help to answer some of those questions (
[15]) but even with a GPS location there is minimal to no information. My vote is not in dispute; I think the US township articles should largely be merged to the county articles, and the same applies more strongly for this Turkish
mahalle.

First off, for the vast majority of editors, sure, but you've created 80,000 articles, so it's a little different. It is not humanly possible for anybody to closely monitor that many articles themselves, and even if they could, Wikipedia is a group project. We need a sustainable structure that works for everyone.
But this is more a side note, it's not just about high-volume article creators, it's also about proper policy in general. For other topics, like say TV episodes, there's generally been a consensus that for lightly trafficed / less notable shows, even when each episode could be a split-off, it's often times better and more maintainable to start with a "List of episodes in season 2 of XYZ" type article, and only build the spin-off separate article once there's substantial content more than the release date and verification of its existence. Again, this is strictly a matter of content organization, I'm talking about "what is the best way to present the exact same information." But at least for separate TV episode articles, whatever, it's just a TV episode. These are real places you're adding populated by real people. The stakes are higher. On a not-small American city, there was somebody persistently adding in negative claims about other living people, that sometimes lasted more than a month. It's a real problem, not a phantom worry. We should be responsible and try to mitigate it when possible, especially when there's not even a request that any content be removed.

TV episode articles can contain claims about living people. Articles about villages are likely to have fewer edits, so
Special:RecentChangesLinked should be useful. Sometimes I have used it with templates such as

A list makes it more difficult to add content, makes incorrect links more likely, and prevents linking between articles in different languages. If there is a redirect, a new page is often created with a different title or in another namespace and the redirect has to be deleted or history merged for the page to be moved. Stubs are smaller pages than lists - it isn't useful when looking for information about one place to find a long article with a list of other places, and most articles are already too long. It's also better to have the structure of an article there even if there is not much content.

Similar to the "

Now, the fact that once "These are all in Aziziye in Erzum in Turkey" is dispensed with in the lede, there's currently absolutely nothing to say about any of these that's unique, but we can still use expand-sect if there's really a belief there's more to be said other than an entry on a table.

WP:ORGDEPTH and would be considered a dependent source because it's associated to the owner. Source 7, the company isn't mentioned and again its from the owner's alma mater. Source 10 and 11 are both trivial mentions simply stating the organization's name on the page. No other sources found to count toward Wikipedia entry. Conclusion: real cool company that doesn't pass

Keep This nomination is ridiculous, and merely demonstrates that the nominator has no more understanding of cricket and what is important in it, and is likely to generate press coverage, than I do of pelota. He has 47 FC matches, scored nearly 2000 runs, and took 35 wickets. I would ask the nominator what his
WP:BEFORE searches consisted of, because he's referenced on page 913 of Wisden 1969 for scoring 54 for Madhya Pradesh against Vidarbha; that took me about 5 minutes to find as the first reference. Pretty sure I could get far more detail if I were willing to devote more time even to English hardcopy sources, let alone if I could actually read Hindi.

[21], which doesn't show notability but can probably be used in the article. Everything else online comes from the fact he's related to Chandra Nayadu (apart from an op-ed on an unrelated topic written by someone with his name.) The only grounds for keeping this at the moment are

DevaCat1 (

Keep. Someone who played 34 times at the highest level of a global sport must have attracted media coverage in his home country that is well beyond any GNG requirement here, let alone SNG. As others have rightly said, pre-internet Indian sources are not readily available outside the country. I searched on Google for something akin to the Wisden Almanack and it came up with Indian Cricket (annual). According to our article on that publication, it had the same level of detail as Wisden and so a player who made numerous first-class appearances across several seasons must have been well documented. The nomination is out of order and should be withdrawn.

The article largely reflects the personal view of the Wikipedia editor "Claudi8". A "Patria case" is neither discussed, nor described in any reliable sources; therefore, it is safe to assume that a "Patria case" as described by the article does not exist, and that the main purpose of the article is to spread original research and personal points of view. The article fails to comply with all Wikipedia core content policies (
WP:NOR,

The Kurier article is not only about SSF. It mentions Patria throughout, with seven mentions of the name. You're right that none of the articles I linked calls the corruption investigation of Patria the "Patria case" but the absence of a unified name does not mean that the affair isn't notable. Otherwise, we would have to delete
Bárcenas affair just because the majority of the press don't use that name (e.g.
BBC calls it
Bárcenas scandal]. Kurier calls the Patria case "die Affäre um den Steyr-Konkurrenten Patria aus Finnland" ('the affair around Patria, a Finnish competitor of Steyr'). So a) there is an affair, b) perhaps we should rename the article to "Patria affair". Perhaps, it would be even better to specify that the affair was about corruption (not, say, about adultery or bullying). So we could rename it "Patria corruption affair", in line with the practice of specifying the affair content, e.g. in
Bill Clinton sexual assault and misconduct allegations.

Delete - no evidence of notability.
GiantSnowman 12:35, 30 March 2021 (UTC)reply
Jeez, I dunno. First of all there's a possible procedural objection here, in that the proposer put forth about a dozen articles that look very similar. This should be done thru the multiple-article deletion method, right?
On the merits... yeah it's not really necessary to delete it. It's a decent article, it's not hurting anyone. It was probably made by a soccer-completionist, which is fine with me. We're not running out of paper. The Italian Wikipedia has an article on this entity, and just because we're the English Wikipedia we don't have to be all anglo-centric. The
Italian article is pretty long, and has meat we could probably translate over to this article. So we slap a {{Expand Italian|Trofeo Cappelli e Ferrania|date=April 2021}} tag on it. That's preferable to throwing the article away. (Granted, the Italian article doesn't provide any more refs tho.)
And I don't know as it can't be improved, more refs added. Yeah I get that the one ref 404's, but the "External link" is really a ref and can be moved there.
Here is a page with some images; there's a whole page there of an Italian newspaper which I think has stuff about the entity (I can't read Italian) and other stuff.
Somebody went to the trouble of making the article, it looks nice, it has potential for improvement, and what's the upside to deleting it? It's not like
Category:1934–35 in Italian football etc. is overflowing, why pare it down more?

JW 1961Talk 18:49, 4 April 2021 (UTC)reply
Keep I don't see any good sources from the Italian page, but it doesn't seem insignificant as an early historical international club tournament. Interestingly, an image search of Italian newspapers came up with contemporary sources showing the tournament likely passes
WP:GNG. Probably needs improving, not deleting.
SportingFlyerT·C 00:07, 5 April 2021 (UTC)reply
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Not sure there is any weight behind the keep votes here. Herostratus' comments just seem to be more along the lines of "it's useful and doing no harm" rather than it being notable. JW's comments add little beyond the acknowledgement that sources might be hard to come by. SportingFlyer suggests there are ,pre sources out there but doesn't add any. I'm seeing nothing here other than speculation, but not a clear consensus to delete. Am extending for a week for these sources editors claim to be out there to be presented.

No one's speculating. An image search for "Trofeo Cappelli" brings up a number of 1930s newspaper clippings.
SportingFlyerT·C 12:25, 6 April 2021 (UTC)reply
So where are they and what do they say that indicates GNG. You can't just say you have done a search and there are sources, you actually need to present them ad indicate how they satisfy GNG. At the moment no one can tell what you are talking about, whether they are articles providing an overview of the competition, or simply routine match reporting / results listing. Yes, you've done a search, great, but it means as much as the next person coming in and saying there aren't sources that satisfy GNG. Until you can present your sources properly and an argument you are simply speculating that GNG is met.

If editors have done a search and feel there is nothing what evidence can they provide? We don't need some boiler plate statement whereby they attest they have done a full and detailed search. You need to assume good faith in that instance. How about you stop trying to have a discussion with me, I'm not sure where your nonsensical comments about ownership have come from for example, and start addressing concerns noted below about the sources currently raised, that would be a much better way of trying to gain consensus as to whether this subject is notable.

Chirota (

DeleteComment - As I have already commented after the relist I feel I can properly vote on this with reasons, as it would not be proper to close this myself now. You don't need to be an expert in Italian to see the worth of most of the sources in the link SportingFlyer has produced. Working across from left to right in the two rows:
A photo - no significant coverage
A very brief, entirely routine match report, no significant coverage beyond routine news reporting - no indication of the provenance of the source and its reliability even if it was significant in length
Another photo - no text whatsoever
Another routine match report - covering exactly the same match as reported in number 2 above
A significant piece of news coverage. Again seems to cover the same final being discussed in 2 and 4, but at least of length that it is conceivable without knowledge of Italian that this discusses the tournament itself in some detail
A continuation of 4 - clear from the repetition of the headline. Comments above apply but still the same source
So basically this site has one significant match report that might go into detail about the tournament itself. Even if it does there is not enough here for GNG. This also isn't a review of newspapers as you said you did above, it is a link to a Roma fan site. Not that that necessarily affects the notability of the articles present, but can you provide further sources SportingFlyer from your Newspaper search?
Fenix down (
talk) 15:08, 6 April 2021 (UTC)reply
Sure.
This is from the Roma fan site you mentioned, I am not familiar with Il Littoriale but it's front page coverage. I'm not sure what
this article is from but it's clearly significant coverage previewing the matches.
This is a match report but shows the tournament received comprehensive coverage, and
this is short but directly on the tournament.
This book thinks the tournament important enough to include in a year in review, since international club tournaments were more notable back then. An historical Italian newspaper search - which I cannot do - would put this beyond doubt.
SportingFlyerT·C 11:23, 7 April 2021 (UTC)reply
I'm still concerned with your confidence in leaning towards keep despite your self-admitted inability to tell us what the sources actually say about the tournament. Im also slightly concerned that there is potentially a synthesis of routine match reporting that is being construed as discussion of the tournament, but at least this is substantially better than your previous attempts. I would strongly advise you to continue with this level of discussion rather than more nebulous comments about where sources may or may not exist. However, I'm happy to move from delete to a comment, but not entirely convinced of keep.
Fenix down (

We don't do a great job with articles at AfD where sources aren't in English, and we don't do a good job with articles where sources are pre-internet - they require more than a cursory BEFORE search, and searching for sources for these sorts of articles can take time (as I've noted, it'd be a lot easier if I spoke Italian and had access to Italian archival databases.) I still don't see why providing guideposts as to where sources might be found in these situations could possibly be considered problematic - they're not
WP:NEXIST arguments, but rather trying to help the discussion by pointing out good places to look in circumstances when searching's difficult, especially when previous discussion has been lacking.

Some limited coverage of this person but no in-depth media coverage. Of the meaningful coverge of Sonita Lontoh, it's almost all from questionable sources like alumni blogs, conference speaker bios, and "news sites" that don't appear to have true editorial oversight.
The sources from CNN, Bloomberg, Forbes, and BBC are hardly meaningful and notible coverage. For example: the Bloomberg artcle is titled "Five Executives on How They Unplug", the CNN article is titled "avoid money talks", and the BBC article is titled "the lifestyles of the young and ultra-rich". The Forbes article is titled "Here's How To Avoid An Impersonal Hiring Process" and is the not reliable "Forbes contributor" type of article. None of these articles establish this person as a notible contributor in their field and just include a quick snippet/quote from this person off topic from their professional contributions.
It's hard to find any reliable sources to support the claims in this article. Google search mostly returns results for their speaking events at conferences.

Are they though? Tatler Indonesia covers "Luxury Lifestyle in Indonesia" (their words, not mine) and not a source for quality technology coverage. Just look at their top stories:
https://indonesiatatler.com/. They might be a reliable source but not for this subject matter. The CBS is a local piece titled "Career Path Based On Three Things, Says San Francisco Marketing Executive" which speaks volumes to the shallow depth covered in the article. The article is pretty weak as a source that establishes notability.
The CNN Indonesia article and Tech in Asia are good sources but that doesn't equal inclusion to wikipedia on its own. Both articles cover the Silicon Valley Asia Technology Alliance, which presumes notablity of Lontoh as is one of the org's co-founders. Being a tech/marketing exec who co-founded a non-profit does not equal notability, even if they do get a few articles written. Many non-profit organizations can get some coverage but it's doesn't mean one of the cofounders meets
WP:BIO. It's also worth noting that the non-profit itself isn't very notable. The
top google results for the org are their press releases hosted on pr web, one of the articles mentioned here, her wikipedia page, and then her linkedin. That doesn't make strong case for notability. Also
notability is not temporary and I don't see much recent coverage of this org. It doesn't even seem to still be around. The website is broken:
http://www.svatechnology.com/
I cannot get the tempo article to load for me. I had that problem earlier as well so I cannot speak to it at the moment. The Jakarta Globe article is a solid source but is this enough to establish this person as a notable with significant and reliable coverage of their professional contributions over the millions of other executives that have similar merits and coverage but do not meet WP:BIO?

Thanks for those links.
Frankly, not every topic described in O'Reilly book is notable: O'Reilly frequenty publishes book on technologies that haven't released yet to capture readership. E.g., there are multiple books on PHP6, yet I doubt anyone would consider it notable.
Also, I fail to see how a stub article about library from 11 years ago could be helpful to anyone. I'll add the books you found to the references in case they could be helpful to someone.

PHP is extremely notable, so that was not a great example. Any particular version, incluing the never released PHP6 is subsumed in
PHP (see
PHP#PHP 6 and Unicode). Being old has nothing to do with notability either.

The article does not describe its subject, instead, it seems to justify Portugal's purchase of the Pandur II. The Portuguese version of the Pandur II does not justify such an article, it is not different enough from the base model. In addition to that, the base article already describes the subject – in its current state, this article is nothing but opinion promotion and fails to comply with Wikipedia's
point-of-view forks policy. Therefore, I propose "Portuguese Pandur" for deletion; improving this article is not possible.

A non-notable business person and political candidate. 2 of the 3 links in the article are dead. The only other source is a blog post claiming that he ran against Manny Pacquiao (the boxer) in 2010 for Congress, and lost. I did not see his name mentioned on Manny Pacquiao's Wikipedia article and have not found any verifiable information that that claim is even true. Regardless, there doesn't seem to be any sources to constitute inclusion to Wikipedia.

Pure PR. The article has only extensive promotional sections of buzz-words on the importance off the problems it deal with, and very extensive name dropping. There are almost no third party sources. If there should be sources for notability , it would need to be done over from scratch. It was just as bad when it was accepted from AfC. DGG (

Comment This may be one of the areas where "notability" and "importance" diverge. This event is likely highly important, at least to high level policy people in Europe (I am a policy analyst in the USA, but I have no connection to this event or anyone associated with it, else I wouldn't be commenting at all). The problem is that these sorts of events tend to produce a lot of useful and important discussions, but they are rarely covered in the popular press. These discussions are usually in policyspeak, a creole of the local language, high academia, and legalese. Possible reliable sources might be found in various think tanks, academic journals, and possibly intellectual political periodicals. As it currently stands, the article appears to be sourced entirely from documents produced at or for the event.
That being said, I did a quick Google Scholar search and found at least a few external sources reporting on the event. I found a keynote address at the event published in the International Journal of Constitutional Law [1], for example. There is also this article from the College of William and Mary Law School [2]. I also found local coverage in the Florence Daily News [3]. Honestly, there's plenty of search engine hits in both Google and Google Scholar, the real difficulty is distinguishing between the many many many documents that are just the texts of speeches and pressntations to find second-party sources like newspapers and such. It's a tricky situation, because this event has almost certainly...well, depending on your viewpoint either greatly affected stakeholder decisions in the EU that have affected hundreds of millions of people, or created excellent employment opportunities for policy analysts in the EU. The news article from William and Mary definitely lays out the importance, it's just the difficulty of finding more sources like it.

The Ward book is 174 pages, the Smith one is 350 pages so without page numbers verification is going to be slow. Fortunately google books gave me a sneak of the latter's index and Massey is mentioned on pages 77, and 98-99 but going by the preview it's passing mentions. The snippet view on the Ward book shows me three mentions but seems thin as in "Yorktown had launched her VT-3 squadron, twelve torpedo planes under command of Lietuentant Commander Lance E Massey, first because of their slow speed".

Comment The Coronado Times source looks to be a reprint of the original Wiki article (and is courtesy of the USS Massey Association). The National Interest is a one paragraph namecheck recycling the Navy Cross information. And the last is an extensive history of the ship, with a short paragraph about its namesake. Just pointing out that two of the three point directly to the ship and don't add anything to what's already in the article. Which, to me, makes a stronger argument for merging him back with the namesake ship.

I only stated that additional sources were added. The US Navy is a source, a reliable one that is used regularly and often, especially in these types of articles.

At least some of those are about a different Bonanza Springs, this is about the place in Lake County.

SportingFlyer, this is my mistake - I had it the other way around! I will strike my !vote, as I was searching for the Bonanza Springs in the Mojave Desert. I had struck the sources above for the Lake County Bonanza Springs, which is NOT notable. I'll also remove the sources I added to the article. Thank you for pointing out this error on my part.

I mean, it is possible you've stumbled upon a yet to be created article! Also a couple of your sources posted here were about Lake County.

My apologies: I stumbled across the Lake County place when checking this one out but forgot to mention it here.

Delete. No
post office. Trivial coverage as a resort. This non-
WP:RSblog mentions Bonanza, Howard and other resorts (apparently Bonanza had a liquor license, which made up for Bonanza's lack of facilities compared to other nearby resorts). I checked out some of
SportingFlyer's newspaper.com links and while there are many trivial mentions of Bonanza, I'm not seeing non-notable coverage. To me, non-trivial coverage would be a non-promotional article that is solely about Bonanza in a
WP:RS source. Passing articles about water rates don't meet my definition of non-notable. As there is no legal recognition and the coverage is trivial, neither #1 nor #2 of
WP:GEOLAND are met.
