This is probably the wrorst sourced article I have ever seen in Wikipedia, except those with no sources. The only source is the Social Security death index, which is a public database in the US that since 1965 or so has included probably over 85% of all deaths in the US. Actually there has to be other unlisted sources, because that database is not the actual source here. The person who created this article also created an article on the subject's son, and the company the son created, and those are all their contributitions. I was going to suggest redirecting to the company he founded, but the article on the company he founded is a redirect to the article on a different company his son founded. My search for information on him came up with no substnative sources, just patent listings, which are primary sources, and by no means is everyone who has been granted a patent notable.

Muonium chloride

The article is probably a hoax. Of the citations, one is to the chemical abstracts services, which contains many entries for substances not-yet-synthesized; the other two are to the same document, recommendations to IUPAC for muon-compound nomenclature, which mentions nothing about the compound's actual synthesis. The article was created by User:0123喵喵9876, who translated it from zh Wikipedia, but searching 介子氯化物 (my best Google Translate guess at Chinese for "muonium chloride") turns up no useful articles. Searching [ "muonium chloride" on Google Scholar] turns up only the IUPAC recommendations and discussions of muonium formation in chloride-containing substrates (but no muonium chloride sensu strictu). At best, I think this is a translation error; at worst, a willful one. Bernanke's Crossbow ( talk) 22:58, 6 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Not notable. I agree that the claim in the article about synthesis is not supported by the source. I do see some coverage in theoretical papers, mainly Bondi et al. (1983) "Exact quantum and vibrationally adiabatic quantum, semiclassical and quasiclassical study of the collinear reactions Cl + MuCl, Cl + HCl, Cl + DCl" [1]. It's WP:PRIMARY but I'm mentioning it in case it's helpful for editors trying to search for more sources. Searching for the phrase "氯化緲子" from the Chinese Wikipedia title basically just turns up mirrors/copies of that article and no helpful sources. In any case, even if we do end up with some usable content on muonium chemistry or compounds, I imagine it is probably more usefully put at Muonium rather than in a separate article. Adumbrativus ( talk) 12:06, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    • Addendum on why I'm thinking to delete rather than merge – I don't see any content in the current muonium chloride article that would actually be worth including in Muonium. My last sentence above was just to say that if someone were to write more content during this AfD it's possible I would reconsider. Adumbrativus ( talk) 01:22, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Three articles about non-notable schools. The first school which is the namesake of the nomination only has passing mentions and from what I could find the most mentions of it mostly relates to the Devyani Khobragade incident. While the American Embassy School came under controversy from this, it doesn't really pass basic GNG and notability concerning schools. The two other school articles I'm nominating, American International School Chennai and American School of Bombay, also fail GNG with articles available online making passing mentions of them. Even the United States State Department pages for these schools is nothing more than just a basic overview of the curriculum. Nothing about the history of the schools. Although, one would assume the U.S. government page for it would have more details as they normally do for everything else on their website, but unfortunately, they don't. -- WikiCleanerMan ( talk) 17:43, 6 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Weak keep: I added media coverage of the school, including an India Times article [2] that states it's one of the most elite private schools in Delhi. This article has also been around for 16 years - so I took a little extra time to hunt for coverage, to see how this might have survived for so long if it wasn't at least somewhat notable. Two things keeping this from being a full keep are that most of the coverage was in the wake of the 2014 visa scandal (1E), and that few of the people listed as famous alumni have coverage of the school in their own articles. But apples to apples, I don't even have to look to see if the most elite secondary school in NY City has an article. Let's go Mets! TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 19:16, 20 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Weak delete I mean, there's a few references. I'm not to solid on the one from India Today though. Since it's like a few short paragraphs about the school and then veers off into some off topic stuff about relations between India and the United States and embassy or something that has nothing to do with the school. So it seems to be more an article about the embassy where the school is located being told in to shut all commercial activities then it is the school. Which doesn't mean the school is notable because it's mentioned in an article about the embassy. Anymore then an article about a mall closing that mentions which stores went out of business has to do with the businesses. Anyway, I'm on the weak delete side though because there is the other reference and someone could probably argue it's worth keeping based on that and the about two paragraphs that are probably salvageable from the India Today article. It's barely not enough for me though. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 04:52, 21 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Not to be confused with Rayan Al-Harbi (footballer, born 1992) aka Rayan Al Harbi (footballer, born 1992). His Kooora page has the wrong DOB and fails to list even one professional appearance. I found him on Soccerway but this has only a trivial professional career, with only 97 mins of professional football recorded, barely more than one single game's worth of time. His cup games for Al-Tai FC occurred when they were not playing in the 2017–18 Saudi Professional League, so don't count for anything either. He was called up to the Saudi Arabia national under-23 football team but failed to play. WP:GNG absolutely needs to be looked at here as the WP:NFOOTBALL pass is not at all significant.

This article started under the title British in India, about some aspect of British rule in India [3]. Somehow, at some point, it became a list of "British people who were born in India or lived there at any point", which it still is, and which is clearly not an unencyclopedic topic. Even if we were to limit the scope to just "British people born in India", I don't think that would be a valid list; there are no other "List of X people born in Y" articles.

Perhaps British people in India, i.e. people of British descent currently living in India, could be a notable topic, like British people in Pakistan, but nothing in the current article or its history is useful for that, so in that case it would be better to start over. Scratch that: Anglo-Indian people already covers that topic. Lennart97 ( talk) 19:40, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply

This is not a town where there was a sanatorium; it was the sanatorium itself, as one of the references used makes clear. It's not terribly surprising that it had its own post office at one point, but evidence for this surrounding town is completely lacking.

Seems that isn't actually a story about it though - it's a photo from an interview with the authors of an apparently self-published book about haunted places in North Dakota. The article does feature some information about the sanatorium (less than 100 words on it, of which most can be summarised as "it's spooky") but I don't think it rises to the level of WP:SIGCOV.

Princess of Ara Thank you; As you recommend references i read and learn more, so much to learn and understand plus school works, This is my first ever article and i want to be a long time contributor here and i am pleading or begging everyone making a contribution to see this deletion process as a last resort, to give a chance for improvement, some subjects may not be notable when pages are created, as time goes on they might meet notability requirements and this is how many orphaned articles that i have seen on english wikipedia gets improved. I understand this process now, please do me a big favour to keep the article. Aspaman — Preceding undated comment added 17:17, 15 January 2022 (UTC) reply
GPL93 -- what is the main reason why all the articles referenced above and over 64k orphaned articles still remained and not being considered for deletion? i've been studying these articles referenced; from the standards you mentioned, none of them meets notability. the recommendation for deletion is BIAS. please explain further and try to look at the referenced articles thanks. Also reviewers declined the draft for this article because it was not well written, secondly, copyright issues and these are good reasons. That is also to show you that this is a learning process; i believe an experienced editor may write it better and it be accepted just like the rest as referenced above. I am interested in understanding why some articles without notability get to stay and some that have been placed on others permanent watch list gets to be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aspaman ( talkcontribs) 06:01, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply
You do realize that an article being orphaned has literally nothing to do with notability right? Also please know that WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a reason for an article not to be deleted and failing notability standards was cited when each of the three different reviewers ( JavaHurricane, Princess of Ara, and Dan arndt) declined the draft article. GPL93 ( talk) 13:24, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply
Yes WP:Orphan has nothing to do with notability and orphaned tag was placed on it after draft was declined and the article was created again. The reference for WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is clear and its summary to my understanding indicates that editors make the decision to leave articles or it is not noticed. Moreso, here is a background of why this subject or article was noticed and recommended for deletion by Princess of Ara ( JavaHurricane, Dan arndt) did not recommend deletion. And deletion policy according to Wikipedia should be seen as last resort.
Background::
The article was started by another editor and did not pass approval but they did not recommend deletion. When I signed up to be an editor I was looking to see where to start and I saw this draft and decided to make corrections to help the editor, after first and second submission for approval, it was decline and at no point did they recommend deletion, the words were to look for reliable sources, improve and if no reliable sources the subject was not suitable for Wikipedia. This is standard and has been seen on several articles on english wikipedia which notifies all editors of improvements and reliable sources.

There has only been one request not 3 as you suggested for deletion. That occurred because I copied and pasted information from the subjects website instead of writing in my own words as suggested by princess of Ara. Princess of Ara immediately requested for the article’s speedy deletion while also recommending to re- write the article which I did and removed all copyright materials but still the deletion was done. When deletion occurred in draft I read about it as a new editor and Wikipedia says you can create the article again, hence I created it again and bearing in mind all changes that has been requested to be made. After draft, I studied why similar articles were left to stay and others don’t and I came across WP:Orphan and I saw this article meets that criteria. So it was tag as orphaned article. Soon after, same editors who were against it came back, suggesting the article was paid for amidst other issues just like many other articles on Wikipedia then After a week, Princess of Ara immediately put it up for deletion. All over Wikipedia it says deletion is last resort, various conditions are given to allow articles to stay WP:Orphan and I believe this article meets that criteria; also Wikipedia has suggested most orphaned articles can be improved and the orphaned tags removed, WP:DEORPHAN it is not ridiculous that i seem to make suggestions to leave articles until the subject becomes notable; it is a fact WP:DEORPHAN articles and suggestions on Wikipedia. Same treatment and discretions given to similar articles should be asserted for fairness. Aspaman ( talk) 16:32, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Do you not think that this article is at the point of last resort? You submitted this as a draft 3 times, it was rejected 3 times with not meeting notability standards cited each time. You decided to ignore them and one of the reviewers nominated the article for deletion when you tried to game the system and bypass the draft review process. They didn't recommend deletion previously because it was a draft and not an article in the main space. GPL93 ( talk) 17:52, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Aspaman, I concur with everything @ GPL93 has said above. Your accusation of bias above is a Personal attack which I’m politely requesting that you strike through. Princess of Ara 20:00, 19 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ GPL93 No i submitted it twice and @ Princess of Ara then nominated it for deletion because of copyright which i acknowledge she is right to do so. This also shows you how much struggle i have in trying to develop just one article and before i sleep and wake up it is deleted that is how i felt. meanwhile, other editors suggested to improve the article, Should we no longer try and improve articles? This is a learning process for me there is no gaming here unless what i read is not is obtainable simply maybe some editors have consensus over others?. @ GPL93 are you trying to suggest that WP:Orphan is a way to game the system? If so, Every editor also has the right to publish an article as an WP:Orphan and can make improvement then WP:DEORPHAN according to wikipedia policy. @ Princess of Ara I sincerely apologize for calling your nomination bias; sincerely. Like i said in your talk page, i do believe it is done in good faith; I just want to be heard. Otherwise i will loose interest in contributing on here. personally, I need someone to educate me why some articles get to stay! despite not meeting notability. "editors do not notice them for nomination deletion" is hard for me to graps. WP:Orphan. Imagine in a world where all disabled people are completely eliminated and only perfectly born persons get to live and enjoy the world.

  • Weak delete or merge/redirect to 2018–2019 Gaza border protests - My condolences, and I'm not saying that it's not an unfortunate and tragic event. While the content can be verified using decent sources, individual border skirmish incidents making the news isn't necessarily always article-worthy per WP:NOTNEWS, WP:1E, WP:NOTOBITUARY, etc. If there were more sources directly about the person's life and career, a more complete and general WP:BLP article could be written including the circumstances of his death. If may be WP:DUE for mention at the more general article and a redirect from the name would satisfy search results. As for WP-related criticism because the article was deleted on one of the projects it doesn't change much to this, most people are unaware of how WP really works, I'm not particularly familiar with the policies of other language wikis myself. — Paleo Neonate – 19:03, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply

The military and many politicians faced major public backlash and criticism from activists and right-wing lawmakers. Protocols for responding to riots have been changed (personnel will now be stationed further back in safer shooting positions) Bennet agreed to advance a proposed law allowing family members to use the sperm of dead relatives has received after Shmueli's mother.

No evidence of any notability found. A redirect to Fencing at the 1924 Summer Olympics – Women's foil was reverted, so an AfD can decide what to do. The only source we have is the very short bio at Olympedia [15]. Looking for more information didn't reveal a single source. At the time Walker was active, women's fencing was hardly a popular sport, and it looks as if she got little to no attention. I'm happy to change my position if better sources are presented!

  • Redirect, as was done before the revert. I have sympathy for the "sources are likely to be offline, not online" argument, but that in itself isn't a reasonable argument in favour of keep, especially when the article is a stub with such an obvious redirect target. If someone finds those offline sources in the future, they can then easily restart the standalone for her. For anyone motivated to do a deeper dig for sources, I'd like to point out that (at least according to our own article on it), the 1924 Summer Olympics was the first women's Olympic fencing competition. A book on the history of Olympic women's fencing might have useful details that aren't coming up just by looking for her name. (The book currently cited in the article is just a passing mention.) The other keep arguments are either not based on policy at all or appear to misunderstand WP:GNG's requirement of significant coverage. -- asilvering ( talk) 19:32, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete or Redirect Keep As what is stated in WP:NSPORTS, presumed notability to meeting the WP:GNG (the only notability requirement that actually matters) only remain presumed so long as it isn't actively challenged. I am challenging that presumption now. If significant coverage in multiple reliable sources can't be found after an exhaustive search for said sources, then the presumption of notability is lost. As a national champion, you should be able to easily actually showcase those sources, right? Unless being a national champion at that time is not something that anyone in the media or other sourced coverage actually cared about, which would in itself then denote non-notability. I'm fully open to changing my vote here if proper source coverage can be found and presented. Otherwise, the closing admin should ignore any claims about presumed notability, as that isn't a proper keep argument. Silver seren C 19:46, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. I found some significant coverage in several newspapers (via British Newspaper Archive) and have expanded the article accordingly with some biographical details. Note: since other sources do little more than confirm what is already cited, I haven't added them as I don't find refboming particularly helpful. Anyway, seems like there is enough to pass GNG here, and I'd also say it's probable that further coverage exists with more additional information. wjemather please leave a message... 20:13, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Hey, Wjemather, do any of those other sources cover the material that's currently being cited with Olympedia and Sports-Reference? Since those two aren't very good sources at all and would be best replaced with proper news articles if you have them for that material. Silver seren C 20:21, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • I didn't spot anything, but that could be due to my fairly restrictive search parameters. I'll look again when I get more time. wjemather please leave a message... 20:26, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Any reasonable person would surely guess that the article's pre-nomination state, with only database sources, was that way only because of the difficulty of searching for 100-year-old news coverage of her accomplishments and not because of the nonexistence of sources. And that has now been borne out by the addition of better sources to the article. Also-competed at the Olympics may no longer be cause for automatic notability, but it is also not a reason for deletion when there is coverage of her efforts there and where she had other significant accomplishments including two-time national champion. Now that sourcing of those accomplishments has been found, there is no longer any excuse for this nomination to proceed. — David Eppstein ( talk) 20:15, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply

That makes zero sense. You didn't even cite a reason. Sergecross73
While I am trying to find at least some sources about his work, there just aren't any. I believe he is one of those individuals who has excellent work on video game collecting and the retro gaming scene. There are a number of video games related personalities we cannot find any cite-able sources about their work. However their contributions are so important that they deserve an entry here. One such example I can think of right now is bruce dawson of original xbox team, whose work in writing a virtual machine of the original xbox for the new Xbox 360 deserves to be documented. But there is no mention of him/his work. User:N013i

Most of those sources would not be considered reliable by Wikipedia standards.

The basic reason for this is that in October of 2021 it was decided that only medalist in the Olympics are default notable for that, other people need to pass other criteria and in general meet GNG. First off the two sources here are one that is so broad and ultra-inclusive that it cannot be used to add towards notability, and another that is far as I can tell a blog. In that particular blog the one mention of this person is buried and mentions he died. Here is their earlier blurb on this person [(Charles Matteson, pictured fourth from the left, in the August 6, 1936 edition of The Calgary Herald) Charles Matteson – Member of Canada’s coxed eights squad at the 1936 Berlin Olympics We know very little of Charles “Tiny” Matteson, born June 8, 1913, who represented Canada in the coxed eights at the 1936 Berlin Games and was eliminated in the semifinals. Aside from the fact that he was a member of the Leander Boat Club of Hamilton, we have no leads on his later life or when and where he might have died.] I did the search of google, google books, google scholar, google news and google news archives and was not able to find any more information and unable to find even one source on Matteson that would lead to his passing GNG. There are several other Charles Matteson's, at least one of whom was notable. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 13:32, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Move back to Draftspace - I am very annoyed that someone actually made this article, this article was kept in my draft space for a reason. This person would have met WP:NOTABILITY threshold, if they had been elected to be Councillor as they are unique in terms of being a North Korean refugee - but they were not elected, therefore, I kept this article in Draftspace for the future if they were hypothetically elected going forward. Although, I do appreciate the good sourcing and also the information about this person's early life and pre-arrival in the UK. Theprussian ( talk) 12:18, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ Theprussian, ah, mea culpa. I both approved the AfC and nominated for deletion. Prior to approving the AfC I should have confirmed that the subject was indeed an elected councillor. The article was misleading at the time of move to article space and I trusted this incorrect statement. I subsequently checked validity, spotted my oversight, ... , and here we are.
    Indeed, draft is acceptable if this is WP:TOOSOON. But if there's little chance of future notability I would suggest Deletion, or perhaps move to your User space. Chumpih t 12:44, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment likewise I passed the article at new page patrol because the article stated she was elected as a councillor. If she isn’t then her notability is more doubtful. There may still be enough out there for a GNG pass but if this is going to be quickly draftified I won’t spend time looking. Mccapra ( talk) 13:03, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep putting aside the issue of whether she has been elected or not, I see significant coverage [20], BBC [21], ABC [22]. These aren't trivial mentions, they are articles 100% devoted to her with in depth coverage. That is all WP:GNG requires, and GNG is the mother of all notability guidelines. Once it is met, it doesn't matter how other subordinate guidelines frame it. It doesn't require anyone is elected to anything. It may seem "soon", but the big story isn't whether or not she gets elected, it is that a North Korean made an extraordinary journey to get to the point that she could even run. Extraordinary enough that several, high quality sources are devoting column inches devoted to it. That is the absolute core of our criteria for inclusion. Dennis Brown - 15:42, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    WP:SNG explicitly defers to Biographies and Politicians for subject-specific notability guidance, and it's a peer to WP:GNG as far as I can see. WP:BLP1E would suggest we need to look beyond a single event, and two of the links above pertain to Park's standing for a Councillor election. The other is interview for an in-house magazine of some UK charity completely independent of the UN and receive no funding from it 1a ; an interesting life story for sure, but does that confer notability? Not a reliable source, and questionable journalistic independence - do they fact check? Is there another notable event? Chumpih t 17:05, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    Are you saying ABC and BBC aren't reliable? And she is only know for what, running only? Don't bother replying, the closing admin will sort it. It is neither necessary nor desirable to reply to every comment. Dennis Brown - 17:13, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    No intention to WP:Bludgeon, but a dangling question mark warrant something, rhetorical flair notwithstanding!! BBC and ABC are of course reliable - but they only cover because of this single event. Is she otherwise noteable? To answer your question, she appears to be known as "NK defector who ran for a councillor post" and little else. There are many hundreds of NK defectors every year - do they all get an article? Chumpih t 17:21, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    No, only those with with multiple instances of significant coverage in reliable sources, since that IS our policy. Now please.... just stop. Dennis Brown - 17:23, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    Seriously, do please clarify what part of WP:NBLP is met here. Please don't just defer to WP:GNG because as previously stated WP:SNG is a peer of that.

  • Keep Plenty of sources that establish GNG is met, here's more: The Times, Reuters, Japan Times and The Telegraph (some paywalled). The first section of NBIO/NBLP even covers GNG and states that "People who meet the basic criteria may be considered notable without meeting the additional criteria", so I don't understand why an argument for deletion is being made with regards to that. Pahunkat ( talk) 19:19, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    It's because WP:NBASIC states Articles may still not be created for such people if they fall under exclusionary criteria, such as being notable only for a single event, and all that coverage was from Spring 2021 and pertains to that single event. Chumpih t 20:30, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    Here's an article from The Conversation, The Guardian and another article from the Guardian before the election, as well as [23] [24] (local media).

  • Comment: It doesn't quite seem accurate to describe the PROD as "concerns about notability", though it's tough for a non-admin to tell. The given rationale is "Fringe theory concerns", which while not something I consider an appropriate deletion rationale is certainly worth noting for an article that at the time was a puff piece for a "researcher in the field of curing homosexuality". After the article's recreation in the same form, I stubbed it and concluded from the sourcing I found that this was a borderline case. Vaticidal prophet 06:02, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply

Did a WP:BEFORE search, doesn't pass WP:BASIC or WP:SIGCOV. Article tone isn't the worst, but it's a promotional piece with no independent coverage. ~ 🦝 Shushugah (he/him •  talk) 11:07, 6 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Oppose deletion I created a stub article in hope it could be developed further. Don't really understand why someone wants to come along and delete it. It is not a promotional piece but states what it is and who it is intended for. I am not an employee or investor in the company. I would agree the article needs more work. However, if you create something in good faith, and then it's deleted because it's not a perfect article right away, that seems like a deterrent to working on Wikipedia. Moreover, the idea that the article has no independent coverage is patently untrue, given that both PetaPixel and writer Om Malik are independent from Glass.

Most sources talking about his works in general are merely directories; recent articles about his 2021 EP are unreliable (and probably pre-paid) promotional sites.

Fails WP:GNG, and a BEFORE search isn't looking good. It is full of advertising fluff, and is solely referenced to a source from the university itself.

Regarding sourcing, I think that at least sources could be found for the main article, unlike the department ones.

I agree with that. I'm sure there's enough sources for the main article. A lot of times people will create forks because they think everything needs it's own article or something and often times it at the cost of the article for the main topic being well referenced.

Stub article, text: "is a Tirolean composer. He was recipient of the Tiroler Landespreis für Kunst in 2011." That's not a nothingburger but I don't think it alone can support this whole article.

His website is here: http://www.franzbaur.at/biographie.htm; if he were wiki-notable, I'd expect his self-written bio to say so. I don't think it does.

I read the de-wiki article before listing this. It is also basically a stub, though larger, and doesn't have sourcing that achieves WP:GNG.

The nominator actually gives a halfway decent rationale in one of the replies above, why not start with that?! All that being said, it's pretty obvious that the subject fails GNG; that said, he may or may not meet WP:ANYBIO#1.

According to GNIS, Pitcairn sat just to the left of the tracks about 150 feet from where the photographer appears to have stood for the image gracing the article, and the only other structures in the vicinity are a house just out of the picture to the right, and the apparatus of railroad crossing signals and gates. Going backwards through the topos doesn't show much more, but they do show a siding at this point, and the only reference I could find that addressed this spot indicated it was established as a shipping point. It does not describe Pitcairn as a town, either. Searching is buried in chance juxtapositions both with the mutineers' island and with another town in another state, so my confidence in that is a bit low. On the other hand, having looked at a lot of these ND rail towns, the vast majority have a quite characteristic pattern of at least two or three square blocks defined by streets, usually aligned with the rails; and the streets are quite persistent even when there are no town buildings left. There is no trace of that here. Mangoe ( talk) 04:52, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep When I started to contribute to Wikipedia with researching and writing articles, I thought Wikipedia served as a gazetteer. Thank You- RFD ( talk) 15:52, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - GNIS spam. Fails WP:GEOLAND#1 and WP:GNG. Wikipedia is not a gazetteer (my essay). Nothing found in my WP:BEFORE. The other places called "Pitcairn" make the search a bit complicated but there is nothing on GBooks, Google, internet archive, JStor, or Newspapers.com for "Pitcairn, North Dakota". The intention of the article creator is not a keep-reason, but shows that Wikipedia really needs to be clearer on the question of whether Wikipedia is or is not a Gazetteer, and an RFC should probably be held at WP:NOT to clarify this. Frankly I find their confusion understandable given how often people on here talk (wrongly) as though there is a consensus that Wikipedia is a gazetteer - there is not and never has been any such consensus. FOARP ( talk) 10:21, 16 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - Appears to be just a rail siding, no evidence of legal recognition or sufficient coverage to meet GNG. The WP:GEOLAND guideline has had consensus for nearly a decade and takes precedence over individual editors' claims that "Wikipedia is a gazetteer". Even if we do keep this article, what can we possibly write about this location? GNIS is not a reliable source for "populated place" or "unincorporated community", so all we can really say is "Pitcairn is a place in Richland County, North Dakota". – dlthewave 23:04, 16 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Leaning keep as it appears to be a storied structure, and would be consistent with existing articles on other residence halls of Columbia University ( Hartley Hall, John Jay Hall, and Wallach Hall, which have not been nominated for deletion), but I would also be amenable to a merge, perhaps bringing the various halls into a single article.

  • Redirect to Columbia University#Students, where it was originally targeted, since it is mentioned there. There is simply not enough in-depth coverage to show that it passes GNG. I actually grew up across the street from the Columbia campus, not that that has any bearing on this discussion. Just that this article did interest me, and I was hoping that there was enough coverage, but sadly there is not. Onel5969 TT me 16:14, 14 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. I would argue that the building is architecturally significant, considering the sources for the building's reception in the 1960s. Its reputation for its ugliness seems to have survived, looking at the "In popular culture" section. I'm don't have the time to look right now, but someone could definitely find more sources on that subject. I think there's a good case to be made that in addition to keeping this article, another one could be made for the contemporaneous Uris Hall, whose groundbreaking was picketed and covered by the NYT. 2601:196:4900:15CD:DC03:E7EF:7271:C945 ( talk) 00:41, 16 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Appears to be discussed in multiple book sources (ignoring the citations in the "Notable residents" section) and a New York Times article and thus I feel notability has been established.

WP:NCHURCH; I found nothing on this denomination, and the page has had no reference added in 14 years of existence.
The very few mentions of it on Google Books are mostly from non- WP:RS, and all Google Books sources mention this denomination in Wikipedia:Passing mention. There is no mention of this denomination on the 2009 Melton's encyclopedia of American religions either.

  • Weak keep (at most) - The website appears to show four (possibly five) congregations (called dioceses) in US, which may well meet for worship. It is a splinter of the American episcopal church and claims to be in communion with Anglican Province of America, another much larger splinter (with two US dioceses and 116 congregations worldwide). This is another case where local church ministers have been declared to be bishops. This has to be near the limits of notability. Peterkingiron ( talk) 11:44, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply

The majority sources present are YouTube videos that make claims about the existence of pieces of the work. There are also multiple Apple Music entries that do the same thing. press releases ( jesusfreakhideout.com ) works without authors ( indievisionmusic.com) and a WordPress blog entry ( rockonpurpose.live) and of course the Patreon entry. There is no review for it at AllMusic, jesusfreakhideout.com, or even crossrhythms (and they review pretty much everyting that comes across their desk). It seems that the subject is lacking significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject and so it fails WP:GNG. The fact that it did not chart and no other claims for WP:NALBUM can be made, I can only assume it should be deleted. Walter Görlitz ( talk) 18:23, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply
