Article is created by subject. Review of sources shows none of them are actual independent, in-depth secondary coverage of the subject. Instead, it is press releases, interviews and passing mentions in relation to the university, FX company and Reuters. Fails WP:NPERSON and WP:GNG. Slywriter ( talk) 13:01, 3 June 2022 (UTC) reply

Businessman doesn't seem to meet WP:ANYBIO- coverage is mostly about his father (Charles Mussry) or based on churnalism articles. MrsSnoozyTurtle 23:39, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply

This AfD discussion includes a proposal for merger to Charles Mussry, and a notice of the proposed merger was posted to that page on June 22. As such, this AfD discussion may need to be extended or relisted to incorporate input from that page.

Comment - While I have doubts about the notability of the organisation itself to merit a full article, I wonder if just as there is a Republicanism in the United Kingdom, the general topic of Republicanism in Scotland (which as concept has a much longer history) might be notable enough for its own article? Dunarc ( talk) 22:38, 21 June 2022 (UTC) reply
Comment - If there's any consensus behind this approach I think it's an acceptable compromise (though I wouldn't have set up the article if I didn't think it was worthwhile) and would be happy to help flesh out the wider Republicanism in Scotland article. I think it's distinct enough from the wider Republicanism in the United Kingdom article to potentially merit an entry in its own right. TrinePGTL ( talk) 10:35, 30 June 2022 (UTC) reply

People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. Hence, this article fails WP:BASIC and WP:GNG. The subject of the article is only notable for one event, the bout against Jaime Munguía on 11 June 2022 given it was created on said event's date. As per WP:BLP1E, an article on a person should be avoided if the following conditions are met:

  1. If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event.
  2. If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual.
  3. If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented.

All three of these conditions are met.

Furthermore, as per WP:NBOX, significant coverage is likely to exist for a boxer if they:

  1. Have won a regular/full (non-interim) non-world title listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Boxing/Title Assessment.
  2. Have been ranked in the world top ten of any weight class by the IBF, WBA, WBC, WBO, or The Ring magazine.
  3. Have fought, as an amateur, in the final of a national amateur championship for an International Boxing Association/Association Internationale de Boxe Amateur (AIBA) affiliated and World Amateur Boxing Championship medal-winning country (for Men, see Medal table (1974–present), for Women see Medal table (2001–present)), or have represented their AIBA affiliated country in a continental (or higher) tournament.

Only meets criterion #1 but lacks significant coverage and does not meet criterions #2 and #3. Therefore, based on the reasons provided, this article should clearly be deleted. Gilbert.JW ( talk) 23:19, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply

Keep, although I believe this can now be closed as withdrawn. It took me a while to wade through all the somewhat-routine fight coverage, but I eventually found a few sources to establish notability ( 1, 2, 3).

  • Keep. The article needs more improvement but she seems notable. Her new jobs are often written up not just as press releases but as both media trade pieces (like [2] for her current position) but also general public like when she was named Exe Director of a museum and the Trib wrote an article [3]. I added both of of those and [4] to the article to update it a bit. She's also been featured on NPR as an expert on Chicago Media [5] (not sure how/if to include it), wrote an article that apparently was published by a journal [6] about the fairness doctrine, and going even further back was quoted by name at a protest at her college in the early 80s [7].

Comment: Made a minor update to section on personal life and will start adding citations to the rest of the article. I’m new to editing so wary of removing information without being sure, was anyone able to find information on the Pulitzer nomination? Her name doesn’t come up in any results and there is no evidence I can find to suggest she was a finalist. Number 21 on Pulitzer’s FAQ page states they discourage saying someone was nominated simply because an entry was received, but I’m unsure if this is the case here.

Comment. Leaning weak delete, but more independent coverage could push this into GNG.


Source assessment table:
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
Robert Feder blog 1 Yes No "He operates his blog under an agreement with the Daily Herald." This does not seem to be one of the few circumstances where a newsblog is RS. No 2 sentences on her No
Chicago Reader Yes Yes value not understood Mostly derived from an interview, but does have some independent commentary ? Unknown
deadlink to Lawrence site No Yes ? No
LA Times article by Schultz No Yes Yes No
Daily Journal article by Schultz No Yes No No
Chicago Tribune Yes Yes No Draws mostly from a press release and personal profile, only ~4 sentences on her directly No
Robert Feder blog 2 Yes No No No
Daily Journal No Schultz was formerly managing editor Yes No basic background details No
Journalism and Women Symposium No Schultz was formerly president Yes No No

@ Blueboar, your confusion is understandable. There was a recent RFC at Wikipedia talk:Notability (media)/Archive 2#Status which led to the changing of the text/policy at WP:BCASTOUTCOMES. The users above are citing an older version of that policy which has been recently deprecated (a fact they probably were not aware of). The new language is very different, and no longer supports the argument made above. BCASTOUTCOMES used to support all radio stations with original programming regardless of sourcing.

Judson Clarke

Australian rules footballer who does not satisfy general notability. There is no special notability guideline for Australian football, so that general notability is the only guideline. The lede sentence and the section on early life and junior football state only that he exists, but Wikipedia is not a directory. The paragraph on his 2022 career states that he played for Richmond, which is a database item of the sort that is no longer a basis for sports notability. Nothing is said about coverage by a reliable source.

There is already a draft, Draft:Judson Clarke, which has somewhat more information, but is also not ready for acceptance. The draft contains a note that the subject does not satisfy WP:NAFL, but that guideline has itself now been deleted. A one-sentence stub was then inserted into article space, which was tagged for BLPPROD. The article was then expanded to the present three sentences with one (paywalled) reference, and the BLPPROD was properly removed, but the article does not make any claim of notability.

The subject may have a fan club of ultras. Wikipedia does not need to accept inadequate stubs written by fan clubs. Robert McClenon ( talk) 14:31, 10 June 2022 (UTC) reply

There is more to say. The article should be developed and/or tagged to call for development. E.g. from this source and other travel/museum sources give details that the house was rented and is east-facing (towards Mecca i think is the importance), there is an associated breadfruit tree, the museum includes furnishings, etc., detail that is not appropriate for the Sukarno article.

JarrahTree 12:41, 19 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. The site in Ende is a museum; see wp:ITSAMUSEUM (to which i contributed). This account of a visitor in Indonesia Expat gives background on significance: it is in a remote area of Indonesia where Sukarno, who became Indonesia's first president and who led it to independence from the Dutch, was exiled for four years. It was a formative, creative period. And, as a preserved place, it seems highly significant to Indonesian history. Like, say, Monticello where an American writer involved in the American Revolution lived (but that was his chosen home). I think there are other places of exile important in other nations' history: how about the prison island where Nelson Mandela was held, where he wrote and developed as a great leader?
The Indonesia Expat source states alternative name for the home/museum as "Situs Pengasingan Soekarno", which should also be searched upon.
Of course Americans like me know little about history of Indonesia, the largest Muslim nation by population. Hardly any Americans would guess the population rank of Indonesia among countries (4th largest!). About 0.000% could distinguish Sukarno vs. military dictator Suharto; i certainly haven't been always been clear myself. Deletion here would amount to bias. -- Doncram ( talk) 20:27, 21 June 2022 (UTC) reply
Comment So the page is actually about the one place in Ende? This is what I gather from the keep/oppose !votes so far. But the article in one breath talks about the much less known site in Bengkulu too. So what's notable then? The museum in Ende? It certainly is. Or the overarching topic of two houses that served as places for Bung Karno's exile? That's a dab or a category, but not an article. – User:Austronesier ( talk) 20:50, 21 June 2022 (UTC) reply
I'm glad we agree there is notability. My impression is that they were both places of exile, or at least homes of Sukarno, and they certainly could both be covered in one article. If there's plenty to say about the other one, too, like if it is clearly separately Wikipedia-notable then it can be split out. Otherwise the article can just have short mention of it, which would be fine. Leave it to editors actually developing the topic to make sensible decisions. -- Doncram ( talk) 22:36, 21 June 2022 (UTC) reply

History of street lighting in the United States

(Find sources:  Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article is a bloated mess, wandering constantly off topic into minutiae about the lights without explaining their relevance to the United States. In fact, the "High pressure sodium", "Metal halide", and "Induction lamp" headers don't even talk about the US at all, and one section wanders entirely off-topic into street light usage in Mexico. The sourcing is also horrendous, mostly being tourism sites or fan archives. Most of the content in the lead -- including Benjamin Franklin creating street lights in Philadelphia or Charles Brush using them in Cleveland -- is not expanded on in the article's body.

The article seems to be mostly a pet project for editor Tpirman1982 ( talk · contribs), who at one point even linked his own street light gallery hosted on a personal website. Other editors have tried to stem Tpirman1982's excessively detailed additions, but he is still using the article in an expository, cataloguing manner not suitable for Wikipedia.

Further more, no other country has its own "Street lighting" subpage, making this one stick out like a sore thumb. The sources in the article do not expound on the subject as a whole, just individual details about certain types of lights that have been used in, but are not exclusive by any means to, the United States. It's the same logic as those infernal stamp articles: yes, we can prove the US has used these types of lights, but we can't prove that the overlaid subject of their specific use in America is notable. Most of the relevant points here are already covered at street light, leaving this article to be WP:IINFO and WP:NOTDIR with a side of WP:OFFTOPIC.

While I don't agree, and know that not everyone has the same point of view, I hold to the principal that if a fair proportion of editors vote to 'Keep' it also means that they represent a large percentage of readers who themselves don't mind the pages and find them useful. Those unheard from but represented readers' points of view seem just as valid and important to these discussions as those who see things like TNT as a solution to what they consider a problem. I'd say that the comments in this AfD, for example, puts it within the shadow of Keep, which to my own reasoning (and a yet incomplete essay) means it should, at that point, be automatically kept, the RfD removed, and an afterparty held with dancing bears and numerous types of pizza.

7&6=thirteen, it seems that your additions were 1) a statement about street lighting in other countries 2) a quote about street lighting in London and 3) a student's assignment about a town in Australia (actually, it turns out that you had only made addition #1 at the time of your comment). How do these address the issues raised in this AfD discussion? They seems like a random grab-bag of Google results for "street lighting". Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 10:20, 21 June 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to Street light#History per Indy beetle PianoDan ( talk) 18:42, 20 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect per Indy beetle. The article body appears to give a more generalized history of street lighting and the methods used, with minuscule mentions of US regions and events, and the lead doesn't summarize the article at all. Not to mention that the sourcing is awful, for lack of a better word. These issues are too prominent for me to !vote for the article to be kept. XtraJovial ( talk) 20:54, 20 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep There is some referenced information about street lighting in America. The general information about how each light source worked should be at Street_light#History, not here. Dream Focus 22:26, 20 June 2022 (UTC) reply

    However, street lighting in the U.S. is barely mentioned (just one city in a list of many others) in that article. Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 22:43, 20 June 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to street light. I wouldn't be opposed to a merge, but there just simply doesn't look like any reliably sourced content to merge that isn't already in the target article. It's an interesting subject, but this doesn't seem to add anything -- anything reliable sourced -- beyond the main article. So per WP:NOPAGE and WP:TNT, redirect. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 12:44, 21 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    • Reaffirming !vote after recent edits. Most of the citations added today are to .... commercial websites of lighting companies? The two other links are to an image-based listicle and this LA Times piece about an art exhibit. Somewhat relevant, but still not persuaded this wouldn't better be handled in the main article. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:07, 21 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    • Second update. Kudos to Cielquiparle for improving the article with good sources and removing the terrible sources added early in this AfD. Whereas the latter just added to the problems, Cielquiparle's edits give the article some potential. It could still use a bit more, and relies really heavily on one source, but it's a good one. It might make sense to just ditch the "history of" part of the title, but that's a separate conversation. Keep. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 18:00, 24 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Significant improvements with really good sourcing, article can continue to improve and topic has meet notability criteria. Kudos ARS crew in fairness. Redirect to Street light#History or Delete. The sourcing is highly dubious and some circular - for example heisolar.com points back to historyoflighting.net, wikipedia, a blog and a commercial site (which in turn points back to historyoflighting.net, etc). A lot of the article deals with older methods of providing lighting which are neither exclusive to the USA nor have been explained in a manner relevant to the topic and most of the "factoids" are completely unsources (e.g. dates of first use or availability or "became common").

  • Update, the page has been greatly improved even since the last comments. As it is right now it likely would have never been nommed, so affirming a Keep. Randy Kryn ( talk) 13:17, 23 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Street lighting#History, merging whatever would be useful. Many of the "improvements" actually make the problems requiring a redirect even worse, since they added huge swaths of text and sources not specific to the United States - underlining the fact that we lack the sources to properly support this as an independent article. The few paragraphs here specific to the US place undue weight on a single source and would be better covered more briefly on Street lighting#History. -- Aquillion ( talk) 19:18, 23 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep the subject of street lighting in the United States is notable. 1909, 1939, 1950, 1957 and 1926 this mention of tallow candles inside of globes in New York. Our notability guidelines WP:SIGCOV appear to be met. The nominator calls for WP:TNT which means start over, not delete.

    Delete: I nominated this page earlier in the year for deletion for the same reasons stated.
    The page was clearly constructed by Nick Elliott and/or his PR company (NickElliottInfo) and although the interest was declared at the onset of the page creation, there is a clear conflict of interest. There have been multiple additions by NickElliottInfo written for promotional gain, which have been identified and deleted by Wiki users to correct this.
    Although, there are a number of sources in the media, these are very clearly a result of the work of a PR company, who have written, negotiated, published, and potentially paid for, the coverage. The independence of the journalism is questionable. Many of the sources cited are actually hosted on NickElliott.info - Nick Elliott’s self published Press Office.
    There is no significant evidence of notability. Nick Elliott does not appear to have achieved anything significant beyond that of any other commercial photographer.

However when checking the existing sourcing (even before an online BEFORE search) it is clear to me that this commercial photographer has had enough significant coverage WP:SIGCOV to establish notability per WP:GNG.

    You can be forgiven for not being familiar with the Rutland Times, 'Norfolk Rocks' and Lynn News. They are all tiny local publications/newsletters bordering on self-published; there may be significant coverage but not from reliable sources and not even necessarily independent.

  • Delete - Significant coverage in the media, whether worthy press or not, does not support notability. From the sources, it looks like this is down to the skills of a good Public Relations company in securing it or being in the “right place at the right time”. The content of the stories published is definitely promotional rather than newsworthy and a lot of the information in the page is supported by quotes from Nick Elliott himself rather than third parties.

  • Delete In my view, this article just scrapes past the general notability guideline (given that notability is not temporary). I have arrived at this view with some hesitation because many of the sources are in effect local papers or niche magazines and perhaps not all are independent. But the GNG is not concerned with geographic scope, they number, and they do cover the subject in some detail. This all said, I have concerns that the essential purpose of the article is for promotion rather than as coverage of a notable individual. This is perhaps not surprising given there has been a conflicted editor involved along the way. Given: (1) the subject's marginal notability; (2) the tendency of the article to conflate/equate the notability of the individuals supposedly photographed by/who worked with the subject, with notability of the subject; (3) the promotional nature of the article, including in its genesis (containing claims like "very successful career"); leads me to form the view, in totality, that deletion is appropriate. Thanks to @ GoingBatty: for the helpful suggestion of reviewing the approved AFC draft. Local Variable ( talk) 16:39, 18 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Passes WP:SIGCOV and WP:NARTIST as there are multiple independent references which address the subject or his work “directly and in detail”.

PROD contested by User:XZae on the grounds that we have lots of articles on minor places. My counterarguments is WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS.

WP:BEFORE indicates that this is a generic subdivision. WP:GEOLAND has been held in prior AFDs to not extend down to the subdivision level, so that bar is not met. WP:GNG is not met because all I'm turning up is autogenerated clickbait, GNIS/wikipedia mirrors, real estate listings/ads, and a single interview with a subdivision resident about zoning.

Like all of the other "lists of people on the postage stamps of X" articles, this one is woefully imcomplete. Are we supposed to believe that British Columbia, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island only ever had one person on a postage stamp ever? There are no sources in sight, and the article has barely been even touched or viewed since 2010. Given the sheer number of postage stamps list at AFD or prod as of this writing, it's clear that this kind of list is not going to ever be reputably sourced. Prod contested because don't think this would nessecarily be an uncontroversial deletion. If this content could be sourced, it might be useful merged somewhere?, but I don't see anything worth merging. Ten Pound Hammer( What did I screw up now?) 03:05, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Comment – I'm the person who removed the proposed deletion template. It seems like the AfD nominator has more experience in regards to postage stamp lists so I think that's something that's important to keep in mind. I didn't know that this was apparently a common issue. I saw the prod at Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada/Article alerts. I literally know next to nothing about stamps. To me, deleting an article because it was Stubby, incomplete, unsourced, untouched since 2010 didn't seem uncontroversial. Sometimes articles get ignored, so it didn't really surprise me that something like that could happen. This list is specifically about postage stamps of Canadian provinces before Canadian Confederation because stamps were issued by individual British North America provinces before that happened. That sounded like it could be a historically significant difference. I agree that the list is woefully incomplete, especially compared to List of people on the postage stamps of Canada. Even that list looks like it could be substantially improved. Clovermoss (talk) 08:39, 27 May 2022 (UTC); edited 08:45, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Update (as of Friday afternoon in my timezone): I made some inquiries. My local library doesn't have anything, but they pointed me towards the direction of other resources that could be useful. There's a museum that I could visit that has a book about the history of postage stamps in Canada, so that seems promising. I've made a few phone calls but no one's got back to me yet. I wouldn't be surprised if I don't hear anything until after the weekend because a lot of people have those off. Clovermoss (talk) 17:59, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply
  • I'm leaning towards Keep or merge, based off the sources that Stan Shebs has access to. A page move might be nessecary to avoid confusion about what exactly the list covers. I also will have access to a source about the postal history of Canada on Wednesday. Depending on what I am able to find, that might be enough to cement my opinion. I think that this would likely meet the purpose of lists as defined at WP:LISTPURP and WP:LISTCRIT, although I'm willing to convinced otherwise with a policy-based argument. I think this way because it's informational and provides navigation to someone who is interested in the topic of people on stamps. Isn't that what you'd expect from a list like that? I will say that even if this sort of thing is obvious to someone whose passionate about stamps, the average person likely doesn't see it as obvious. That's why citations are important if it's not something like the sky is blue. Clovermoss (talk) 20:59, 28 May 2022 (UTC); edited to strike text 16:08, 1 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Update after museum visit – so I was able to look at a copy of The Postage Stamps and Postal History of Canada by Winthrop Smillie Boggs. I found this on page IX:

    As the title implies this book is primarily concerned with the Postage Stamps and Postal Development of Canada. No explanation therefore is nessecary for omitting revenue stamps. The issues of the Provinces of British Columbia, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island are studies in themselves and are touched on only insofar as they are reflected in the operation of the Canada Post office, while the stamps and postal history of Newfoundland has been covered in a previous work.

    I got the impression that this was done in an attempt to be concise, as the introductory pages mentioned that hundreds of hours went into the research of everything. I think that implies that there's at least a historical distinction between the provinces and Canadian confederation in 1867 and that that history in regards to Newfoundland could be notable. I think that Stan might have access to this source? Unless the author is referring to a previous work of their own. I wasn't able to read all 800+ pages of the book in one sitting and I wasn't allowed to bring it home or anything (which makes sense). But there was only so much I could read and take notes on in an hour. I still have to think a bit more about what all this means in regards to whether or not this should qualify as a standalone list, be merged, or deleted. I need a bit more time to think on all that, especially since I start work soon. There was also this quote from page 89 (this part of the book was still covered aspects of the pre-Confederation postal system and was included as part of that content, despite the previous statement):

    The process of designing, engraving and printing Canadian adhesive stamps has, without exception, been identical to the production of bank-notes, in order to safeguard against counterfeiting. Some of the same designers and engravers work alternatively on postage stamps, revenue stamps and other securities, so what applies historically to one applies equally to the other.

    That sounded like it could be relevant, but I'm not certain. I have to sift through all my notes and think more about Wikipedia policies. I should have a stronger !vote one way or another by tomorrow. I'm not going to make a SOURCESMUSTEXIST argument, so this might be something that could qualify for #3 on WP:DRVPURPOSE "if significant new information has come to light since a deletion that would justify recreating the deleted page". Regardless, I think it's amazing I found out about more resources that I can access and that I got to learn new things. I'll probably spend the next few weeks or months working on improving content about the postage system of Canada, depending on how often I can visit the museum and how long they'll let me stay.

  • Going through my notes again, there isn't really anything crucial I missed in my last comment. I think I'm just going to let my comments stand for themselves because this is the first time iirc that I've tried to evualate the suitability of a list's inclusion and it's throwing me off. If we were going off GNG I don't think this would qualify unless reliable sources were suddenly discovered, but factors like WP:LISTPURP, WP:LISTCRIT and WP:NLIST are throwing me off because I don't know enough about lists to know with certainity if Stan's potential source is enough for that/the usefulness it might have for navigation/encylopedic topical relevance. I don't feel confident enough to cast a !vote. Sorry to whoever may be reading this massive wall of text. I am going to keep this page on my watchlist because I'm curious what other editors think about all this if more people participate. Chances are if I'm the only one who thinks a certain way I'm the one whose wrong, so that's something to keep in mind. Clovermoss (talk) 01:38, 2 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Very Strong Delete This is exactly why people who know nothing about a subject should let people who know a little more handle it. After 12 years an article having no sources is an insult to Wikipedia. It is an insult to Wikipedia that it is so hard to keep it from being flooded with various crufts, in this case philatelycruft. Considering the history of postage stamps, how new there were before British Columbia became part of the confederation, and related factors, I would not be surprised if only one person was ever pictured on them. I think at that stage postage stamp variation was not much more than coin variation. Ths idea that we can picture a huge variety of things on postage stamps seems, much in excess of what is pictured on coins, seems to be largely a 20th-century innovation. Deleting articles that have had no sources for over 10 years should only be controversial if people are able to produce sources about the subject. This is philatelycruft and we need to remove it from Wikipedia. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 13:26, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply
  • @ Johnpacklambert: That's the reason I commented instead of !voted. It was also 4 am at the time. I woke up in the middle of the night and I thought I should explain my thought process a bit more. I have things to do today, but I'll try to see if there's sources. My library might have something. I'm not going to vote !keep and make a "sources must exist" argument if I can't find any, y'know? If this list is deleted, List of people on the postage stamps of Canada should be updated to reflect that there isn't another list article for stamps before Confederation. If sources can be found but it isn't useful as a seperate list, maybe a "Before Confederation" section would be useful? Clovermoss (talk) 14:09, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply

Yes, most of the provinces only issued their own stamps for only a brief period before confederation, with the exception of Newfoundland.

    • When articles have persisted for over a deacade with no sources they are seen as a very clear frustration to the purposes of Wikipedia. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 17:51, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply
      • I am actually understanding the problem. This article still has 0 sources. It was created on 7 December, 2002. There are article on US senators at the time that were not created until the fall of 2003. Beyond this, the name is just plain wrong. This should if we keep it be called List of people on Postage stamps of colonies in British North America. Newfoundland was not a Canadian province at any point the stamps were issued, nor were any of these other places. We have lines in here such as "The listings below are believed to be reasonably complete." By whom? How do we know this with no sources? Even if they are, why are people an important enough sub-group from postage stamps to cover so? What reliable sources show that we should give this special attention to people on postage stamps? I keep asking for reliable sources, and no one is producing them. Wikipedia is not a place to publish orignal research. The last edit of some substance was changing the number from 5 to 6, not because of some found source but because the article actually had 6 places listed? Even Postage stamps and postal history of Canada has had a notification of needing better sourcing for over a decade. This article literally went from July 2015 to October 2018 with no edits at all, even of the most trivial nature. This article has existed for over 19 years without sources. That is hoprefully a record. To get things in perspective Wikipedia was only launched in 2001. Wikipedia would not even reach 100,000 articles until sometime in 2003, yet somehow this article has stood since 2002 with absolutely no sources added to it ever. This situation is just plain not acceptable. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 18:10, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply
        If I do end up getting access to that book about postal stamps (see my comment above for the update), I'd likely be making an improvements to a series of articles regarding the history of postal stamps in Canada, so that should resolve your concerns. I think the article was titled provinces because provinces was a term used before it meant provinces of Canada. See Province of Canada. I'm not oppposed to the content being put at a title like you suggested, though. I'm also aware that the article has been unsourced for pretty much my entire lifetime, which I find absolutely fascinating. Clovermoss (talk) 18:17, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply

          • We'll see, I guess. My point was more that I am making an effort to actually see if there are reliable sources that exist, even if no one's added them for 19 years. Not everything is nessecarily accessible online, even in 2022. That book isn't the only potential option, but it's the only material I know right now that definitively exists. AfD discussions can run for 7 days (or longer if they're relisted), so I'm not in any particular rush. It's been here 19 years, what's another week? I do have a job and obligations in real life.

            I personally have about eight printed works on the stamps and postal history of Canada and its forerunners, so there is plenty to work from. But at the same time, the claim is being made that this is all "trivia" and "philatelycruft", which if that's the consensus, then there is no possible source that will be deemed satisfactory.

            • Hi Stan Shebs. Sorry it took so long to get back to you, I had to go to work. I try my best to always be polite and courteous to others. I will say that I've been active editor for about 3 and a half years and I wouldn't say the community as a whole displays nastiness as a new norm. I've had lots of friendly interactions with others. My experience might be a bit different because I don't often participate in potentially controversial areas like ANI, though. I will also say that I think it's inspiring that you started editing Wikipedia 19 years ago. The changes you must have seen. I also think that people are more likely to !vote keep if you cite the sources that you have. It sounds like you have an incredible collection and I would appreciate you sharing your knowledge with us. :) The museum did call me back on my dinner break, so it looks like I'll be able to access that book I was talking about. I had to reserve time to go see it on Wednesday. Even if you add sources, I think I'll still go. I wasn't that interested in stamps before, but now I'm at least intrigued. That's one of the reasons I like editing Wikipedia, it can broaden your horizons. Clovermoss (talk) 04:11, 28 May 2022 (UTC); edited 04:19, 28 May 2022 (UTC) reply
              Thanks for your kind comments, that means a lot to me! So to take a specific example, I have the Robson Lowe "Encyclopedia of British Empire Postage Stamps" Volume V from 1973, which covers Newfoundland and British Columbia. Its 150-odd pages have quite a lot of detail, far more than seems reasonable for Wikipedia - "Air rate in 1933 was 30c, but there was no air service; in 1942, 9 cents per oz." Moving on to the coronation issue of 1911, there are no less than 10 members of the royal family featured, including Prince Albert the unexpected King George VI, and the obscure Prince John of the United Kingdom, in what I believe is his sole appearance on a stamp, ever. But at no point does Robson Lowe include a list of people on the stamps of Newfoundland, nor does it say anything like "people on stamps is an important topic, and future encyclopedists should make online lists with wiki links." The most one can say is that it takes care to identify the individuals accurately, with phrasing like "Duke of Connaught, uncle of King George V". Stan ( talk) 05:23, 28 May 2022 (UTC) reply
              Stan Shebs, thank you. That was insightful. I will admit that I am slightly confused (maybe my mind isn't working right because it's 7 am). I have to go to work but I'll be back in ~8 hours or so. But I've read your comment a few times and it still isn't clear to me. Can you clarify if any of your books mention what people have been in stamps? Even if it's not in a list format, just verification that these stamps existed? Or is it about the general history of how stamps worked and how much they cost at the time, etc? I think you're saying that stamps featuring the royal family are discussed in depth? I think it's reasonable to assume a book wouldn't explicitly say "people on stamps is an important topic, and future encyclopedists should make online lists with wiki links" but if a published book has written about people on stamps, we can likely have a list about it. Clovermoss (talk) 11:29, 28 May 2022 (UTC) reply
              Yes, the Robson Lowe book individually describes and illustrates all of the stamps ever issued by Newfoundland, plus postal rates and other historical information about the postal system. The amount of detail varies; so the Wilfred Grenfell issue of December 1941 gets a half-page, including that the image on the stamp was from a painting by Gribble, design was approved by George V, etc etc. The Duke of Connaught stamp gets only the one line, exactly as I typed in above, and no background material on why the whole family was included in a coronation issue, an unusual step for those times. Typically there are more specialized works that go to that next level of detail. Stan ( talk) 13:03, 28 May 2022 (UTC) reply

It is a book published in a way that makes it reliable that has the whole list, or an article in a journal that meets the definition of a reliable source that has the whole list.

  • And the list still remains unsourced. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 14:57, 31 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    Yes, I agree about the sources. They should be added. I really hope Stan gets around to it, maybe he's busy? Or just feeling discouraged with the way this discussion has gone? I will be able to look at that book about the postal history of Canda tomorrow at the museum, so that might be able to give what's needed. If it does, I'll cite that information tomorrow. I agree that sorting the list by year would be a good idea. Clovermoss (talk) 17:26, 31 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    • The book would have to give a complete list of only the people on postage stamps. If the list it gives mixes people and other things, than it is not a reliable source treating this topic as a subject and so cannot be used to support this article. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 18:36, 31 May 2022 (UTC) reply
      Wouldn't dedicating several pages to this sort of thing count as WP:SIGCOV? Of course I won't know for sure until I actually see the source, but GNG says that "Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material". Also, aren't the general requirements for lists lower? Or am I misunderstanding WP:NOTESAL? Because wouldn't they be notable as a set under that criteria?

  • Comment Based on Stan's own comments we should delete this article because the subject is not covered as a distinct and comprehensive subject in the reliable sources. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 18:38, 31 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    But it goes beyond even just listing them? He says they include details like The amount of detail varies; so the Wilfred Grenfell issue of December 1941 gets a half-page, including that the image on the stamp was from a painting by Gribble, design was approved by George V, etc etc. The Duke of Connaught stamp gets only the one line, exactly as I typed in above, and no background material on why the whole family was included in a coronation issue, an unusual step for those times? Wouldn't the ones that actually go into detail be more noteworthy? But because it's a set wouldn't together it be enough for WP:LISTN? I hate to sound like a broken record, but if you're more specific about why you don't think this counts as sigificant coverage and why it fails LISTN, I'm still willing to be convinced. Clovermoss (talk) 04:53, 1 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    Hmm, taking another look at Stan's comment I see he only specifies that that book specfically only covers the stamps issued by Newfoundland. If it doesn't include the ones issued by other provinces before Confederation, I can see the point you're trying to make. I'm still going to the museum this morning (I need to sleep first because it's late) so I'll see if that book-length history of postage stamps in Canada has anything useful then. Still, if the potential sourcing for a stand-alone list isn't good enough, maybe it could merged and be part of a Before Confederation section at List of people on the postage stamps of Canada? My instinct is that if possible, knowledge should be preserved. Being able to cite it to reliable sources is important, though. Clovermoss (talk) 05:52, 1 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • There are still exactly 0 sources on the article. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 12:41, 2 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    I'm aware. I did follow through with that museum visit, you can see my comment there above. Stan's the one who has access to a source that at least verifies the stamps listed for Newfoundland. Given his comments above, I think he found the tone of this discussion off-putting. Maybe he's decided to step away. Clovermoss (talk) 18:47, 2 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    Yes, the tone of the discussion is off-putting, and I question whether WP has been overrun by unpleasant behavior, or if I just have rosy memories and have just forgotten participating in hand-to-hand combat with Wik and the like in the early days. :-) The reason these lists have survived for nearly 20 years is that random editors would see them and say "well yes, obviously notable", kind of like list of national capitals, which has not a single source declaring that a list of national capitals is notable, and yet I don't think anyone is going to make a serious argument that it is "lacks sources" and is therefore not Wikipedia-worthy. So, the question having been put about the notability of a list of people on stamps, I'm inclined to take it seriously and ask "why have generations of editors agreed that they are worth keeping?" Were they ignorant? Maybe, or maybe they were smarter than the current generation is giving them credit for? In any case, I think there is a real question to be answered, and it's worth thinking about, but it's going to take more than couple weeks, and needs to be more thoughtful than shouted epithets in AfD. I'll continue to think about it even all the current lists are deleted, because the question is itself of interest. Stan ( talk) 03:22, 3 June 2022 (UTC) reply

Keep User:Stan_Shebs has stated that they have various offline sources (books) that prove notability, I assume good faith and believe this. I don't agree with the statement about that to prove notability sources must be added to the article in the next few days, that is not how this works, editors just need to prove that it's notable, the fixes can happen without urgency. I think it's notable. In this context of someone saying they have sources draftification is surely the most extreme action that anyone should propose, but I'm happy to say keep here.

Since this discussion has been relisted, I've made a few edits. The list isn't completely unsourced now. I'm going to make some improvements to the companion list about after confederation, too. Since no one else has added sources and that was the main thing being reiterated, I started going through snippets of text in GoogleBooks with various search terms. So far I've had success with verifying what I can, but I believe that Stan has access to offline sources that could be of use.

I'm sorry to say, but I don't plan to expend any further effort on this.

  • Comment None of these sources are giving coverage of the whole topic in a way that justifies an article. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 12:09, 9 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete No evidence whatsoever exists that this meets WP:NLIST, as already stated: not in this AfD, and not in the article (all-inclusive philatelical catalogues are not evidence of notability; and they are even less evidence that this is of broader, encyclopedic interest such as to obviate the NOT concerns). Otherwise, this and all similar pages fail WP:NOTDIRECTORY (as generally "Simple listings without contextual information showing encyclopedic merit."); and furthermore, because having this is definitively a WP:BADIDEA (as evidenced by the fact people keep citing the existence of these lists as a reason to keep having them even when they fail inclusion criteria), as Wikipedia is not a philatelical catalogue and there is no indication how this kind of page is of any broader encyclopedic significance. An encyclopedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, even if it is true, and despite it possibly being interesting to a limited number of dedicated philatelical enthusiasts. RandomCanadian ( talk / contribs) 14:17, 9 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ RandomCanadian: Thank you for that comment. I will say I disagree with the very last part about only being interesting to a limited number of philatelical enthiuasts, because I didn't care about stamps before this AfD and I find it interesting. I think it has potential historical revelance. I also don't think the desire to create lists like this is a bad idea, even if they might not meet our standards for inclusion. I guess the main thing that was throwing me off is that the line of thinking that could distinguish WP:LISTCRIT from WP:NOTDIRECTORY. I'm still not confident enough in my line of thinking to cast a !vote. I will say that in my attempt to verify that these stamps existed, I've been pritorizing citing sources that do more than just say it existed, but it's still quite limited information in general. I'm aware that existance isn't the same as notability. If we were going off GNG for an article in general I don't think the sources I'm citing would count as significant coverage. Maybe Stan's source does. The Robert Lowe book he describes earlier seems like it could be enough for WP:NOTESAL. Everything that makes lists more nuanced is throwing me off, as I stated earlier.

This AfD discussion includes a proposal for merger to List of people on the postage stamps of Canada, and a notice of the proposed merger was posted to that page on June 22. As such, this AfD discussion may need to be extended or relisted to incorporate input from that page.

  • I would oppose a merger because looking at the proposed merge target I do not think it has sufficient sources treating the subject as a whole to justify a list article. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 12:11, 23 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • I'm leaning towards supporting a merge, but I'm still not sure. I'm the person who removed the prod with a comment that it might be useful merged somewhere and proposed the merge target. However I recognize that many of these lists of people of postage stamp on x country have been deleted, so it might not be useful to merge if the target is also deleted. I will say that this Afd discussion has been open for pretty much a month at this point and I'm the only one whose explicitly supported a merge, so it seems unlikely that that's the way consensus would be heading. While I said earlier on that waiting a week was no big deal (especially when I was waiting to hear back from the museum - unfortunately our availability's don't match much), ideally an AfD shouldn't endlessly be relisted. I don't participate much, so maybe that's the norm. But I think trying to find out whether people support the merge or not is a good idea. Clovermoss (talk) 14:27, 23 June 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep With all due respect to the nominator, WP:GNG is not the correct citation, it is WP:AUTHOR.

To meet the criteria for WP:Author you need just ONE of:

  1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors; or
  2. The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique; or
  3. The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series); or
  4. The person's work (or works) has: (a) become a significant monument, (b) been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) won significant critical attention, or (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.

In this case she meets 1) as she is widely cited by peers. See here https://www.google.com/search?q=%22jessica+abo%22&safe=active&rlz=1C1ONGR_enUS945US945&tbm=bks&sxsrf=ALiCzsZzRriK8T5IQkLieQElzpmzCWu1BA:1654720097876&ei=YQahYpeGNYPrtAbbrLToCw&start=10&sa=N&ved=2ahUKEwjXuovd2J74AhWDNc0KHVsWDb0Q8NMDegQIARBP&biw=1920&bih=929&dpr=1

Please look higher up in WP:BASIC where it discusses notability by restating GNG, and then says People are likely to be notable if they meet any of the following standards. Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included regarding the author additional criteria.

Too soon per WP:NTOUR which says "Concert tours are probably notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Such coverage might show notability in terms of artistic approach, financial success, relationship to audience, or other such terms. Sources that merely establish that a tour happened are not sufficient to demonstrate notability." This should be drafted/draftified until more information is available otherwise it is simply promotion for the artist which goes against WP:NOTPROMO. WP:CRYSTAL also says "All articles about anticipated events must be verifiable, and the subject matter must be of sufficiently wide interest that it would merit an article if the event had already occurred." as well as "Individual scheduled or expected future events should be included only if the event is notable and almost certain to take place.

Comment. It’s time to close this discussion as no consensus. To quote the relevant guideline: “Relisting should not be a substitute for a "no consensus" closure … Relisting debates repeatedly in the hope of getting sufficient participation is not recommended, and while having a deletion notice on a page is not harmful, its presence over several weeks can become disheartening for its editors. Therefore, in general, debates should not be relisted more than twice.” Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 16:00, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply

Disagree. This has already been to AFD. Issues persist since then. So far I have only seen one policy based argument, the other is just "per" that vote. Mine and the other delete vote rely on NCORP, and these reports are not appropriate sources to demonstrate notability. It is my interpretation of NCORP that analyst reports can be used for publicly traded companies. This is not a publicly traded company. There is a special allowance for the use of analyst reports at NCORP because publicly traded companies are likely to be notable but may not have been covered by traditional media sources. Being publicly traded on a well known index is almost in my view, a de-facto indicator of notability. This discussion should be left open for as long as possible to allow for more commentary. It is likely this article will be up for discussion again if it is just closed and the issues left unaddressed. I am quite concerned that hidden reports are all that is being relied on. While WP:PAYWALL technically applies, surely if these are the only sources, this is a verifiability issue. Usually someone, somewhere on Wikipedia has access to paywalled content through the library or another means. I do not see evidence anyone relying on these analyst reports has even read them, given the $3000+ fees...how can someone rely on sources not read? Can anyone here declare they've read the source and summarise what it says? MaxnaCarta ( talk) 04:41, 22 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • You say "Mine and the other delete vote rely on NCORP" - I think you meant to say "My Delete !vote and one Keep !vote have been debating NCORP guidelines"? The purpose of AfD is to determine whether the topic is notable (or not). You're saying analyst reports can only be used by publically traded companies - I assume you're basing that assumption on WP:LISTED which says:
Consensus has been that notability is not automatic in this (or any other) case. However, sufficient independent sources almost always exist for such companies, so that notability can be established using the primary criterion discussed above. Examples of such sources include independent press coverage and analyst reports. Accordingly, article authors should make sure to seek out such coverage and add references to such articles to properly establish notability.
  • Applying your logic to all of this sentence would also imply that "independent press coverage" also can not be used except for publicly listed companies. Clearly that isn't the case. Analyst reports are regarded as in-depth, significant and independent.
  • Now, although I do not have access to the full versions of those reports, nor even to the parts of those reports that talk about the topic company, parts of reports that deal with specific companies are sometimes made available by those specific companies. This is useful for those that have not seen or read analyst reports previously. You often need to provide a "business" email address in order to receive a link to the company-specific reports. I have managed to locate sections that do not require a business email address - this is an extract from the Aite Matrix report for SAS and here is one for NICE (another vendor). I believe it is safe to assume that these reports meet NCORP criteria for those companies and I also believe it is safe to assume that the sections on this topic company will also be sufficient to meet NCORP.
  • Finally, you're aware of WP:PAYWALL but WP:NEXIST also says we only require the *existence* of suitable sources, not their immediate presence or citation in an article. Editors evaluating notability should consider not only any sources currently named in an article, but also the *possibility* or *existence* of notability-indicating sources that are not currently named in the article. So while I have not seen any of the reports in which the topic company has been listed in the table of contents as being covered by analysts within the report, I have read hundreds of analyst reports and those from reputable analyst firms are as close to a gold standard that we have for meeting NCORP criteria for establishing notability.

WP:BLP of a filmmaker and YouTuber, not properly referenced as passing WP:CREATIVE. His strongest notability claim is winning a minor award for web content, which would be fine if the article were well-sourced but isn't highly meganotable enough to confer an instant notability freebie in the absence of a WP:GNG-worthy volume and depth of sourcing -- but four of the five footnotes are his own self-published content about himself in his YouTube videos and the website of his own company, and the only source that's actually independent of him comes from a community hyperlocal alt-weekly in his own hometown, which isn't enough coverage to singlehandedly vault him over GNG all by itself if all of the other sourcing is primary.
Obviously no prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can write and source something better than this, but nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have more than just one hit of media coverage. Bearcat ( talk) 14:00, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply

I did a search on navy.mil and found the following sources, which may or may not be useful: [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21]. I don't think a redirect to Wiktionary would work well (at least, it would be awkward without changing the main page to the disambiguation page, and then the Wiktionary link would be a bit weirdly placed). -- Pokechu22 ( talk) 19:11, 5 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • I would point out the universality of the term for naval, maritime (civilian sea-going), and sailing (civilian commercial and pastime) purposes. It applies as much to a canal narrowband springing a leak as to the Russian ship Moskva sunk from missile attack during the 2022 Ukraine war. The term may not be well known outside marine circles, but that probably means it deserves to be searchable in the 'pedia.- Peter Ellis - Talk 06:32, 6 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    Pokechu22 and Peter Ellis the thing is that the term is not by any means exclusive to or primarily known for its use in ships emergencies. Ships are not the only places where damage needs to be controlled (public relations is a major example that comes to mind, for example, and definitely more notable/prominent than the maritime use of the term). — Ixtal ( T / C ) Join WP:FINANCE! 06:52, 6 June 2022 (UTC) reply

What I see in the topos and the like is a former C&NW siding with a grain elevator which has been converted into a biker bar. They claim to have a Langley address, but the post office does not agree.

The trouble is, I haven't been able to find anything that we could actually use to build an article. The History of Bureau County, Illinois has nothing on it either. I hate to delete verified settlements, but I don't think we have enough to go on here; for all we know based on the sources, the name might have just been applied to the farmland around the railroad station, and there may not have been a proper settlement.

  • Keep, per WP:GEOLAND. As was mentioned, the Bureau County Tribune had a regular section in its paper devoted to Langley.

The county still recognizes it as a place. Moreover, "Miss Emma Hamrick of Langley, spent Saturday and Sunday with her sister, Mrs. Ralph Carroll".

  • Delete. Comment: WP:MANOTE is an essay and so carries zero weight at AfD; the appropriate guideline is NSPORT, which requires GNG be met. BlackAmerican what multiple independent, secondary, and reliable sources have you found that give her SIGCOV? EDIT: The coverage in Black Belt magazine seems substantial, but we'd need more than one source. American Judo newspaper is published by the org she belongs to and so is not independent, and none of the other sources appear to contribute to GNG. JoelleJay ( talk) 22:21, 11 June 2022 (UTC) reply
MANOTE is relevant in that NSPORT has no additional guidance for judoka. She has several mentions in Black Belt articles during her active career, are you asking for additional publications covering her? There is repeated coverage of her in the Decatur Herald and Review, including her national and international competitions. I'd also question the idea that a national association's newspaper wouldn't be considered independent of a member of the association; it could be different for coverage of an association's leader or association activities, but reporting on competitions and any given competitors would seem to be outside of the individual's ability to influence the coverage. Carter (Tcr25) ( talk) 15:28, 12 June 2022 (UTC) reply
No, MANOTE is not an SNG so it does not have anything beyond essay status. Athletes that aren't covered by an NSPORT sub-SNG default to SPORTCRIT, which is essentially GNG.
I can't access the first Herald & Review article, but the second wouldn't be considered SIGCOV as it has just a few sentences on her reporting event results. But I can believe she has more coverage based on the magazine profile so if there's a lot more content directly on her in the other H&R piece then that's probably sufficient for GNG.
National organizations are never considered independent of their members -- they (orgs) are financially obliged to promote positive material related to the org and therefore are not neutral or reflective of actual wider interest. Hope that helps. JoelleJay ( talk) 17:05, 12 June 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep Passes criteria 1 of WP:ANYBIO as a medalist in both national and international events at the top tier (not the junior level as inaccurately stated by the nominator) of her sport. 4meter4 ( talk) 18:17, 25 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    No, that's not correct. Per longstanding consensus, upheld by the recent massive RfC, we still require athletes with such achievements to meet GNG (hence the wording in NSPORT that "SIGCOV is likely to exist", rather than "is presumed notable"). JoelleJay ( talk) 20:41, 25 June 2022 (UTC) reply
@ JoelleJay, I think you are mischaracterizing the consensus from that RFC which specifically targeted "participation based criteria" (see summation of that RFC at Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Sports notability) not medalists/ winners of a major sporting event. That RFC was addressing many of the prior lax issues at NSPORT such as everyone who has participated at the Olympics or in a national sports team as notable. Clearly they aren't, and SIGCOV needs to be demonstrated. The consensus was that many of the participation based SNGs at NSPORT were poor predictors of notability (ie subjects may or may not have significant coverage for merely competing at the top tier of a given sport). However, that RFC consensus does not extend to people who have won a major competition (a medalist); which still meets criteria 1 at ANYBIO. 4meter4 ( talk) 03:38, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
@ 4meter4, No, it absolutely does cover medalists. One of the major consensuses was to change "presumed notable" to "SIGCOV is likely to exist" for all criteria, including for medalists. NSPORT also still requires GNG to be met for all subjects. JoelleJay ( talk) 17:42, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
If honors like being in the Baseball Hall of Fame were considered automatic ANYBIO passes, this would be reflected in the NBASEBALL guidance, which was revamped following the RfC and would have addressed this point then if it was valid. But as it stands there is no achievement in sports that has received consensus support for automatic ANYBIO notability. JoelleJay ( talk) 17:49, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
I still maintain that the higher policy of ANYBIO applies here. Changes to one area of policy language doesn't necessarily impact the application of other relevant policies. It seems odd to me that NSPORT wouldn't have some threshold for notability based on achievement. That doesn't seem congruent with our wider policies on biographical notability. On a side note, I wouldn't equate winning an international competition at the highest competitive level of a sport the same as being inducted into a Hall of Fame. One is an achievement, the other is an award. Best. 4meter4 ( talk) 17:52, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
One is an achievement, the other is an award. I specifically used the HoF example because achievements aren't included in ANYBIO. Awards are an indication that independent bodies have determined, through consensus, that a person merits special recognition for their accomplishments. JoelleJay ( talk) 23:06, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per 4meter4. I think it's fair to say guidelines that apply to all biographies would trump guidelines for only sportspeople. WP:ANYBIO is clearly passed. ♡RAFAEL♡( talk) 05:10, 27 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep in light of historical significance of her achievements. Women in judo were unable to compete in the Olympics until 1992. When Hostetler was competing in the 1970s, there weren't many other international competitions either, so the fact that she did earn medals at the British Open as an American judoka was significant (not to mention the gold medal at the National Judo Association championship, and all the other medals in other US competitions). In terms of sources establishing notability, it's important not to miss the forest for the trees, and look at the aggregate. The Black Belt magazine profile is solid as independent, reliable, in-depth coverage. In addition to that, there is enough non-trivial coverage in multiple sources such as Judo magazine (British) and American Judo (where she is on the cover). Both pieces go beyond "routine game coverage" in that they are covering national or international championships. Even if coverage from publications affiliated with sports associations alone is insufficient, she has coverage that goes beyond that in Black Belt, and one could even argue that the British Judo magazine is "independent" in the sense that Hostetler was not part of that association. Also, in highly specialized fields such as judo, mainstream media understanding of the sports is poor to non-existent; in this particular instance, I would weight the association articles more heavily, because they specifically are not puff pieces.

  • While I can't find much, I did find this article in a potentially reliable source [24] which could count as substantial coverage, but more importantly in mentions an article in Chunichi Shimbun about the subject which I believe is citation number 2 in the article (found at [25]), and also provides substantial coverage. It seems her being a female racing driver at that time, even without much success, made her at least stand out, and potentially there would be much more coverage, in particular in Japanese print magazines and newspapers from the time (the one I've mentioned above is from 2005). So for now I think weak keep. A7V2 ( talk) 07:55, 18 June 2022 (UTC) reply

Everyone who played the final? It seems to start with the first and, as one scrolls down, shift to the last criterion. Regarding similar lists, WP:OTHER is not an argument. The arguments to keep boil down to showing useful information, in this case, statistics; Wikipedia, though, is not a WP:NOTDATABASE. I'm concerned that further research on the matter, particularly on the topics of inclusion vis-à-vis older squads, will veer into WP:SYNTHESIS territory.

Comment Based on comparison between datas and sources, it seems that the list includes everyone who has played a match in competition.

WP:BLP of a person notable only as an as yet non-winning candidate in a political party primary. As always, candidates do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates per se (even candidates on the general election ballot don't get articles for that, let alone primary candidates) -- the notability test at WP:NPOL is holding a notable political office, not just running for one, while a candidate must demonstrate either preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten her an article anyway (the Cynthia Nixon test), or a credible reason why her candidacy should be seen as so much more special than everybody else's candidacies that even if she loses the election she would still pass the ten year test for enduring significance anyway (the Christine O'Donnell test). But this demonstrates neither of those things.

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus. Although numerically, the deletes outnumber the keeps, AFD is not a vote. Few of the delete comments have detailed policy based rationales supporting them, and early on in the AFD there is confusion as to if the article is about the intersection or the neighborhood defined by the intersection. By the end of the AFD it becomes apparant that the article is about both, and the word "intersection" in the article title is a poor attempt at disambiguation. Although the present iteration of the article only cites 2 sources, keep proponents have found several promising potential sources, but language is a barrier to properly evaluating them under reliable source criteria and including them in the article. In short - neither the delete nor the keep comments make a convincing argument, so I'm closing this as no consensus. ~ ONUnicorn( Talk| Contribs) problem solving

Post closing comment - I have added a {{ Cleanup AfD}} tag to the article. To be clear, the specific concerns identified in the AFD that the article requires cleanup to address are the article title, and the addition of more sources (ideally by someone fluent in the language). ~ ONUnicorn( Talk| Contribs) problem solving 20:46, 27 June 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Comment: For articles like this, their main scope is usually the neighborhood known after the intersection, rather than the traffic infrastructure itself. The sources already cited in the article go in-depth into the junction and neighbourhood's name and history, and its long-standing congestion problems and past projects aimed at addressing the issue have been widely reported on. [26] [27] That said, I wouldn't be against merging without prejudice to Highway 302 (Thailand), seeing as there's not much content that would warrant covering them separately. -- Paul_012 ( talk) 14:25, 29 May 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Comment The intersection will be the terminal of 2 different mass transit routes (Brown - construction not yet started, and Pink lines - to be in service late 2022) and passed by another (Purple line - already in service), is the location of Nonthaburi province administration center, and the location of Ministry of Public Health. It's a major interchange there. -- Lerdsuwa ( talk) 03:58, 30 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    • Change the above Comment to Keep and rename to Khae Rai so it can cover the neighborhood. But note that there is no district, subdistrict, road, or any other thing with the original name Khae Rai except the intersection. So the neighborhood name actually comes from the intersection name. And many businesses, buildings have Khae Rai attached to their name. Google search for its Thai names gives 1M hits [28] though a small fraction of them refers to a different Khae Rai in another province. -- Lerdsuwa ( talk) 02:20, 4 June 2022 (UTC) reply
      • Khae Rai is currently a disambiguation page, with the other item being the subdistrict in Samut Sakhon. I guess there's a case to be made that this subject is the primary topic, but I didn't move it there before as the original author seemed to think differently. -- Paul_012 ( talk) 09:43, 4 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. The obvious caveats about searching for foreign language subjects applies, but I wasn't able to find any evidence that there's significant coverage of the intersection itself. As mentioned by Paul_012, it's extremely rare for any intersection articles to exist because the content makes much more sense in other places—either the road, or the neighborhood the intersection is located. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 17:36, 3 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    • That's not what i said. In Thailand, the neighbourhood where the section is located is the intersection. See for example the articles under Category:Road junctions in Bangkok, which are all neighbourhoods and junctions. This article is titled as such due to disambiguation requirements. -- Paul_012 ( talk) 09:43, 4 June 2022 (UTC) reply

This AfD discussion includes a proposal for merger to Highway 302 (Thailand), and a notice of the proposed merger was posted to that page on June 22. As such, this AfD discussion may need to be extended or relisted to incorporate input from that page.

  • Lean keep We really need someone who can read Thai for this one. I don't, but I tried doing a Google Books search for "แคราย" and it turned up a fair number of results, so it looks like there might be significant coverage out there for this topic. The best I could do is copy-paste the "found inside" text into Google Translate (I can't actually highlight within the ebook itself) so my ability to judge the quality of the content is severely limited. Some of the books are definitely fiction, and others appear to only mention "แคราย" in passing. But, again, I can't read Thai, so these may very well be more than passing mentions and I'm just unable to tell.
Among the "passing mentions" that might turn out to have worthwhile information: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) seem to talk about transportation and infrastructure-related developments in the area; 4 in particular seems the most likely to have useful content since it describes it as "a location that has high demand for apartments". This one (7) seems incomprehensible to me, but its page on Google Books lists it as "history" and "military" and it seems to be nonfictional. This one (8) looks like just a passing mention, but it's talking about history as well so it might be useful. Similarly, this one (9) mentions an explosion at a police station here in 2007, although that might be all it says about Khae Rai. This one (10) might be a false positive but it seems to be talking about transportation and economic activity in a "Khae district" (no "Rai", which is why I think it might be a false positive). This one (11) mentions that the "Khae Rai - Bang Bua Thong area" is getting a lot of real estate/business development, but again it might be referring to a different Khae Rai. This one (12) is talking about the name but, like the rest of these, I can't tell if it's meaningful coverage or not.
Then these (13) (14) (15) (16) don't seem very promising - they look like mere passing mentions - but along with some others they seem to indicate that the name "Khae Rai" also applies to the whole area. Finally, this one (17) just seems incomprehensible; I'm not sure if it might be useful or not.
But I want to draw attention to a couple of sources that definitely do seem like more than passing mentions. This one (18) seems to be talking about the place's name and the history behind it. Meanwhile, this one (19) is talking about the place's history and how it used to have fewer roads connecting, etc. The content in both cases is already in our article (and already cited; to other sources) so these sources aren't really useful in establishing notability, but it indicates that at least some substantial coverage is out there.
Again, I don't think we can really make an informed decision here without someone who can read Thai. There are at least a couple of sources providing substantial coverage on this topic, but I can't tell if any of these other potential sources really count as significant. Some of them seem promising, so I think there's probably enough sources covering the topic to establish notability, but it's beyond my ability to properly evaluate this. 3 kids in a trenchcoat ( talk) 05:49, 23 June 2022 (UTC) reply
(1) to (5) refers to the Pink Line, for which the first phase runs between Khae Rai and Min Buri. Hence the line is often referred to in the media as Pink Line (Khae Rai-Min Buri) or Pink Line Khae Rai-Min Buri secion. (7) talked about a Coup d'état with military seized the Thaicom satellite control station at the intersection and then people seized it back. (8) just about the author lived in the intersection area. (9) one of terrorist bombing around 0:00 on New Year was at the intersection. (10) talked about the Pink Line mentioned above. (11) Google only shows some of the matches for me (not the Khae Rai-Bang Bua Thong which is indeed the correct Khae Rai) so can't decide. (12) is about calling place name using Khae Rai as example. Google only shows a few lines of text so not sure how much the coverage is there. Haven't looked at others. -- Lerdsuwa ( talk) 02:48, 24 June 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. The relevance of Amora and Navy and Dream is their recent inclusion on the U.S. popularity charts. Reverie has increased in usage. I have been attempting to create or expand articles for names listed on different popularity charts as I come across them. These articles were never originally intended to only include people with a certain name either and I don’t think notability depends on it. They are about the history and usage of a particular name. The images are intended to illustrate the article. The image with Navy is of two children wearing navy blue clothing and one a sailor suit. The source says the name comes from either the color or the Navy. Reverie is the title of the image included, etc. -- Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 12:03, 17 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    These articles were never originally intended to only include people with a certain name either and I don’t think notability depends on it.: No. Namelists can be treated as a WP:SETINDEX if we have articles of multiple people with that name. Otherwise, pure name articles are expected to meet WP:GNG.— Bagumba ( talk) 12:21, 17 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    Since everyone appears to have abandoned discussions on this page over the last few days and have not responded to the improvements I made, I will mention again that all four of these articles now either meet WP:GNG or WP:SETINDEX mentioned above by User:Bagumba. I provided citations for articles in mainstream papers or TV networks and published name dictionaries as well as blogs and lifestyle sites that give more extensive coverage of the specific names. For Reverie (given name) I also created cited articles about two notable people with the name. At least one of the articles, Eloisa Reverie Vezzosi, has survived two attempts to delete it after two separate editors agreed she is notable and the citations are solid. Therefore, Reverie (given name) meets WP:SETINDEX as well, though I think it also meets WP:GNG. I again say the articles deserve to be kept and the deletion discussion should now be closed. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 14:20, 25 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    'Comment Thanks for the ping. I still stand by my earlier !vote. It might not have been your intention, but the many refereces added come off as a WP:REFBOMB of trivial mentions of the respective names. WP:GNG requires signficant coverage. Per the guideline WP:WHYN:

    We require "significant coverage" in reliable sources so that we can actually write a whole article, rather than half a paragraph or a definition of that topic. If only a few sentences could be written and supported by sources about the subject, that subject does not qualify for a separate page, but should instead be merged into an article about a larger topic or relevant list.

    Those other pages remain a stub, looking at the new sources that I have online access to, there's no indication that the page content can ever grow.— Bagumba ( talk) 14:45, 25 May 2022 (UTC) reply
I still stand by my comments earlier that the naming blogs with extensive commentary on these names should qualify as references for general notability, as do the newspaper and magazine articles that have been cited that are evidence of broad commentary/coverage. The articles Eloisa Reverie Vezzosi and Reverie Love can likely be expanded with more time based on the news articles I found. Some about Vezzosi are in Italian, which I don’t speak, but she appears to be a performance artist who has been covered in different media. I’m not particularly interested in Love or underground hip hop but she’s had coverage and someone out there probably is more interested than me and will work on that article. I’ll say again that I am not a deletionist. I think Wikipedia has been too quick in general to delete cited articles that are of interest or could be expanded upon. These are just four of them and they are clearly of interest to a lot of people based on the references I listed. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 15:05, 25 May 2022 (UTC) reply

Reverie Love is probably the weaker of the two articles and could be deleted, though I found media interviews and reviews that had been listed and looked notable to me, though I’m hardly an expert or interested in hip-hop. The Eloisa Reverie Vezzosi article can probably be expanded by people who speak Italian and can do more than run them through Google Translate. There is additional independent coverage on what appears to be a notable and interesting personality. As for the Dream article, Dream Hampton is a notable figure and Dream appears to be her name from birth. I didn’t see any disambiguation page listing The-Dream or Dream (YouTuber) so includes them as well though they might better be listed under a See Also at the bottom of the page. I somewhat question the quality of the Dream (YouTuber) article but it’s not for me to judge. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 10:38, 28 May 2022 (UTC) reply
  • The inclusion on the popularity charts is notable. Navy currently ranks No. 452 on the U.S. popularity chart and was mentioned as having jumped up 258 slots on the chart from the previous year. Dream was ranked No. 351 on the chart and has similarly increased in use etc. In some of these articles I tried to avoid giving specific rank and numbers because it dates the article and they will have to be continuously updated from year to year. The notability for most of these is that they are names that dramatically increased in use and will probably continue to do so, often because of some celebrity influence — I.e., Dream is influenced by the child of Rob Kardashian and Reverie by the daughter of Rebecca Woolf. Neither of the specific children are notable themselves and probably should not be mentioned in the name articles for privacy’s sake but the celebrity influence is mentioned in the references cited as a reason for the increase on the charts. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 12:44, 17 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    I have added additional references to the Dream and Navy article to establish notability. More certainly exist. All of these names have been mentioned in multiple articles as having increased in popularity, influenced by celebrities, etc. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 13:37, 17 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    Looking at your sources for "Navy", I see the primary source ssa.gov (statistics), and then Nameberry.com [29], not much readson to see it as a reliable source, and Appellation Mountain is just a blog apparently. So no reliable sources, like books or newspaper aricles, about these given names and their popularity? Fram ( talk) 13:45, 17 May 2022 (UTC) reply

And the naming blogs are certainly indicative as supporting evidence that these names are of note and are increasing in popularity and are being talked about, etc. I’m not a “deletionist.” I think names that are on a popularity chart are of note to an encyclopedia and people are probably going to want to know what they mean and where they came from and want to look them up. These are all notable names. If you want more references, I’ll certainly dig them up but the ones that are there already ought to be sufficient.

For which names? That source is from 2007, and names like Reverie or Dream weren't on the radar back then. Fram ( talk) 07:25, 18 May 2022 (UTC) reply
Navy above. It refers to the naming of a daughter of R&B singer Nivea, just as the website dictionary does. I think that child was born in 2005. I also have additional references to all of those articles from blogs, news articles, etc. For Navy, there are articles that reference the naming of the daughter of country singer Jason Aldean and why he and his wife chose the name and others citing the birth and naming last year of the daughter of the blogger Arielle Charnas as an influence on the name. For the article Reverie there are citations for multiple blog entries over the past 11 years, one mentioning that the name increased in use from 5 in 2010 to 61 in 2020 after the birth of the author and blogger Rebecca Woolf’s daughter. Also included are links to Woolf’s 2011 blog entry describing the naming of her twins and to a 2014 HGTV.com feature describing how “well known blogger” Woolf created a nursery for her twins that was as “Bohemian as their names.” I added additional citations to the article Amora with separate articles from February listing it among other names that mean “love.” I also added citations for the article for Dream with articles citing the influence of names chosen by the various members of the Kardashian family, including of Rob Kardashian’s daughter. I consider the naming blogs acceptable contemporary references for these articles about very recently popular names, especially as supporting evidence for the Social Security Association stats that are also listed. In the case of the Nameberry site, the majority of the information for the online dictionary comes from previously published books by the authors who own the site, updated with contemporary information they add. Some of the other sites are blogs run by other published authors. Other articles cited are from online lifestyle sites or online magazines, etc. In any case, there are now many references for these two or three paragraph articles all supporting their notability.

"In any case, there are now many references for these two or three paragraph articles all supporting their notability."

Fram ( talk) 12:49, 18 May 2022 (UTC) reply
Entries in published name dictionaries, articles that mention a name has increased in popularity due to its use by a certain celebrity, articles describing a certain person as notable, etc., are not considered notable? I can’t agree. The blogs are all copyrighted and in many instances employ writers who conduct interviews and publish articles on the sites with commentary on notable names and editors who edit the content. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 12:57, 18 May 2022 (UTC) reply
Reverie (given name) has no "Entries in published name dictionaries" (even if it had, it would depend on how significant the entry was, such books have thousands of very short entries usually), it has no "articles that mention a name has increased in popularity due to its use by a certain celebrity", and "articles describing a certain person as notable" don't give notability to a given name. "The blogs are all copyrighted" is meaningless, if I or you start a blog tomorrow everything we write on it is copyrighted as well. Something like this has no indication at all why it would be a reliable source. Fram ( talk) 13:04, 18 May 2022 (UTC) reply
All of the others do and I stand by what I said earlier regarding why I consider the naming blogs notable and why Reverie is of note too. If anything they are probably more trustworthy because the people writing them are experts on the subject matter. All of the articles should be kept. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 13:23, 18 May 2022 (UTC) reply
"All of the others do"? Right, so I checked the second one, Dream (given name), and no, it has again no "Entries in published name dictionaries", it has an ultro-short mention of Dream in an article [30], and an even shorter one here on a sports radio website (no idea why they post an artucle on this subject, very weird). Even if copyright wasn't an issue and you were allowed to post the relevant bits of these two articles in full, you would still have a very, very short article. Anyway, I'm done chasing after your changes and checking your claims against reality, I'll let others decide on this. Fram ( talk) 13:37, 18 May 2022 (UTC) reply
The article was written after the release of a report on naming trends from the previous year, which is considered of interest by various media outlets. Some people consider the topic trivial but others obviously find it notable. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 14:26, 18 May 2022 (UTC) reply
Anyone still interested in this discussion might note that I have added multiple additional references, including a published name reference by Laura Wattenberg that mentions all four of these names. Wattenberg is often quoted as a name expert in mainstream media articles as an expert on naming trends. The blogs and content/lifestyle sites referenced can be viewed as additional supporting evidence. I also have created an article Reverie Love with supporting references. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 00:21, 20 May 2022 (UTC) reply

Bookworm has just added "a published name reference by Laura Wattenberg that mentions all four of these names. Wattenberg is often quoted as a name expert in mainstream media articles as an expert on naming trends." as apparently the clincher to establish notability for these names. So, fine, I checked: for Reverie, the "full" info is "Reverie". That's it, nothing more. The index indicates that it can be found on page 394, and that page has a long list of names which includes Reverie (and Navy and presumably the other two). [31] It adds no information and doesn't help at establishing notability, but it sounds good if you can say that you have added a book of course. As the other sources are just "additional supporting evidence", we are still left with nothing. Can someone else please educate Bookworm on what is acceptable sourcing and what actually establishes notability? Fram ( talk) 12:11, 20 May 2022 (UTC) reply

Reverie is included in a list of names in the Wattenberg book where the significance is the meaning of the vocabulary word. The other names in the book are mentioned under similar lists. Dream is listed under a dictionary entry in the book that lists the Kardashian connection, etc. It’s a popular reference book on naming trends and suggestIons for parents, not a scholarly treatise, but Wattenberg is frequently interviewed as an expert as are the authors who run Nameberry, for that matter. I also listed an assortment of articles as references under the Dream, Navy, and Amora articles. Dream and/or Navy are referenced in the articles on CNN and others as being among the fastest rising names of the year, as noted in the Social Security Administration report on rising names. The references are cited. I guess anyone interested can judge for themselves. I’ve explained above and at length why I believe these are notable names and why the blogs ought to qualify as acceptable sources for notability. I continue to disagree with Fram. When I searched for people by the name Reverie, I found fictional references and a rap performer who uses it as a stage name, who I decided was clearly notable enough for a Wikipedia article based on the news coverage of her. I hope that stub article on Reverie Love will be expanded upon by people who are more knowledgeable about underground hip-hop than I am. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 12:56, 20 May 2022 (UTC) reply
"the significance is the meaning of the vocabulary word."? Fram ( talk) 13:11, 20 May 2022 (UTC) reply
Yes. Wattenberg compiled a list of recently coined “word names” that are in use and make a statement because of the meaning. The author and others note this is a naming trend particularly in the United States in the past few years and is evident on the popularity charts. Destiny is another example. With Reverie, usage increased from five in 2010 to 61 in 2020 (60 uses last year.) The blogger is considered the main influence but I’d speculate that the rapper probably has as well since she has been performing during the same time frame. I found a couple of news articles mentioning non-notable children called Reverie during my hunt for sources. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 13:25, 20 May 2022 (UTC) reply
To be clear, Wattenberg included the name in a long list, nothing further: everything else comes from blogs and primary sources or is your original research. Fram ( talk) 13:34, 20 May 2022 (UTC) reply
I would strongly object to your claim that I conducted “original research.” In writing these articles, I searched for and provided multiple citations for a few stub articles about names that multiple authors, bloggers or journalists all considered notable enough to comment on and write about after noting that they have risen in usage. Three of the name articles you want to delete are mentioned by others as notable because they are now on the popularity chart in the U.S. and continuing to rise in use; the fourth is mentioned as noteworthy as having dramatically increased in use over the past 12 years. Original research would mean I saw the stats and wrote the articles based on my own interpretation, which I did not. The comments I made here about why a name is popular are not in the articles, which just give statistics and assertions made by authors, bloggers, content writers or reporters, etc. And I’ve said above why these should be considered notable.

  • Comment to Fram's request, this is an ongoing fingers-in-the-ears issue with this user about what constitutes reliable sources, and merely being a website or a published book doesn't confer reliability to the sources or notability to their contents, see recent discussion at Talk:Maya (given name)#Bad sources where the use of such sources was explicitly called out as not reliable and Bookworm just bludgeoned by the noticeboard precedents. JesseRafe ( talk) 19:19, 20 May 2022 (UTC) reply
Yes, we do disagree about what constitutes notability and reliable sources. I don’t think that necessarily constitutes a “fingers-in-the-ears” issue so much as an ongoing philosophical disagreement. As can be seen with the articles and the ongoing content dispute at Maya, which has yet to be resolved, I have improved upon all of the articles mentioned here with additional citations that I do think demonstrate that they are notable and should be kept.

  • Delete I think the three names with no bios linked should be deleted. Amora, serving as a DAB page for people with that name, can stay. Rockphed ( talk) 04:29, 26 May 2022 (UTC) reply
    Dream (given name) and Reverie (given name) both now also include bios linked. Dream (given name) includes a link to the article Dream Hampton as well as to The-Dream and Dream (YouTuber), none of which I wrote. Reverie (given name) includes links to the articles Eloisa Reverie Vezzosi and Reverie Love, both of which I did write. However, both can be expanded upon and, at least two other editors also apparently considered the references in Eloisa Reverie Vezzosi notable enough to halt speedy deletion attempts. Three of the four meet WP:SETINDEX] But as I said above, I also believe all four meet general notability guidelines under WP:GNG. Other editors above have expressed some objections to listing blogs such as Nameberry or Appellation Mountain as sources. I noted above that Nameberry contains material previously published (by independent publishers) in multiple books by the authors who run the site. They are frequently interviewed by journalists and quoted as experts on naming trends in some of the news articles also cited. Author Wattenberg, whose book I also cited, has also been interviewed as an expert on naming trends in mainstream media. The article on what qualifies as a reliable source at Wikipedia does note that self published material can qualify if it is by an expert in the field. I originally wrote three of the four articles because the names had been mentioned by the U.S. Social Security Administration on its list of fastest rising names for 2021 on its popularity chart. The fourth, Reverie (given name), had been mentioned in connection with Dream (given name). The articles are all sourced. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 05:50, 26 May 2022 (UTC) reply
I have also added a link to the bio for actress Dreama Walker to the article Dream (given name) along with a citation from a published source that supports including it as a variant of the name. Dreama (given name) may merit its own article but I would probably make it a redirect to the Dream article since Dream is a far more commonly used name. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 14:28, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply
I would urge you to remove that link and false claim. Dreama (and many variants thereof, like dreamah, dreamar, ...) are given with the meaning "dreamer", and with no indication that it is a variant of "Dream" [32]. You can find it between "Dotty" and "Drew". The given name "Dream" has no separate entry in this book of 100,000+ names, indicating just how incredibly notable it is... Fram ( talk) 14:49, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply
I assume we can agree that dream and dreamer are etymologically related words. Dreama has been around as a name since the early to mid 20th century, per the two additional sources I added from the Wattenberg book and the Appellation Mountain blog. Dream is a more recent coinage and has only recently been used in large numbers, which explains why it isn’t included in the Lansky book. However, the film maker Dream Hampton was born in 1972. Dreama also appears in the American Social Security stats, albeit in low numbers. There was a prostitute character on an episode of the show CSI who says her father named her from the song Dream a Little Dream of Me. Should we decide that the name Dreama warrants its own article instead of being included in the Dream (given name) article, that could be mentioned. I probably would not create a stand alone article on a name that is pretty rare. I would be comfortable saying Dream and Dreama are related names with the references I cited. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 15:19, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply
Please no, not more poorly sourced (or incorrectly represented sources) articles on non-notable names. Fram ( talk) 15:28, 27 May 2022 (UTC) reply
Dream and dreamer are related words; Dreama is mentioned in a blog entry at Appellation Mountain under the entry for Dream; Dreama is also included in a list entitled “Mid-Century America” and along with Dream in a list entitled “Modern Meanings” in the Wattenberg book. They have hardly been misrepresented. The two books cited are both published references. I have also included links to bios in the article for people with these names, which would meet the criteria under WP:SETINDEX. Dreama might merit a separate article or list due to the actress Dreama Walker. There do appear to be other actresses called Dreama based on cast lists referenced in Wiki articles but I didn’t find any other articles with the quick search I did. I still say these names are generally notable also because they now appear among the top 1,000 names in the U.S. or have been mentioned as rising in use. The name Dreama does not meet that criteria.

  • Comment. Please note that I have added some additional material to the Dream (given name) article today and done a bit of editing/cleanup. I added a citation for an archived interview with Dream Hampton, who said her father named her after the I Have a Dream speech by Martin Luther King Jr. I also moved the bio links for The-Dream, Dream (YouTuber), and Dreama Walker under a See Also heading. I stand by what I said earlier above regarding why all of these articles meet WP:SETINDEX and WP:GNG as well. I have added references and made substantial improvements to all of these articles since they were originally listed in an attempt to address some of the concerns that were expressed, though I also think the original versions were adequately cited.

As does mine, for all of the reasons I cited above. I have done an enormous amount of work on these articles, which I think were all fine to begin with and were of general notability because they are either listed among the top 1,000 names on the U.S. Social Security Administration site or noted as rising in use. Three of the four include links to bios of people by the name. The link to the article on Eloisa Reverie Vezzosi still stands and that one can be expanded. Multiple citations have been included for all of them to news articles, books, blogs by experts etc. I have already said why I consider the blogs to be acceptable sources. Self published works are listed as acceptable by experts in the field. Several of these authors have been interviewed and quoted as experts on numerous occasions over the last decade by the New York Times or other papers. Much of the material on the Nameberry site was previously published in one of their independently published books. All four of these articles should be kept.

To quote the relevant guideline: “Relisting should not be a substitute for a "no consensus" closure … Relisting debates repeatedly in the hope of getting sufficient participation is not recommended, and while having a deletion notice on a page is not harmful, its presence over several weeks can become disheartening for its editors. Therefore, in general, debates should not be relisted more than twice.” Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 16:03, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply

    User:Bagumba voted to keep Amora based on the addition of links to bios of other people with the same name to that article. Since that vote, I did extensive work on all four of the other articles. Both Dream and Reverie also now include links to other bios to people with the same names, just as Amora does. They meet the same WP:SETINDEX criteria that Amora does. All four of them are referenced. I also still say the claim to WP:GNG is met by media coverage of their inclusion on the top 1,000 list of most popular names and/or their recent increase in popularity.

  • Comment. I’ll say again that three of the four articles include links to biographies of people with the name, which meets WP:SETINDEX and they are formatted exactly like dozens of existing name articles on Wikipedia. I think they are notable for other reasons as well. The “fluff” references referred to include published references and news articles as well as blogs by people who have been quoted as experts on the topic in the New York Times and other publications. Self-published articles can be acceptable references when they are by experts. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 01:51, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
SETINDEX doesn't mean GNG, NLIST or other guidelines don't have to be met, and GNG is what matters here. Picking sources at random, one finds such things as "The Baby Name Wizard: A Magical Method for Finding the Perfect Name for Your Baby"; "100,000+ Baby Names name book"; names databases (nameberry.com, government websites); a blog titled "Bewitching Names: Naming Enthusiasm from a Wiccan Perspective". Whatever reliable sources may be found all contain passing mentions only. None of this comes close to meeting GNG. If there are any publications by "experts" (whatever that means with regard to names) here I must've missed them, but caution is urged even for expert SPS sources. Avilich ( talk) 04:11, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
Also several of those listed on "Dream" have it as pseudonyms, and so don't qualify for a SETLIST other than a dab page. Avilich ( talk) 04:13, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
Laura Wattenberg and the authors of the Nameberry site have both been quoted as experts on naming trends in various articles in assorted publications. The books that were cited by them were published by independent publishers. Blogs and newspaper articles with commentary on individual names and commenting on the data from government databases does go to the general notability of all of these names. These are also no different than any number of already existing name articles on Wikipedia. This conversation has dragged out for over a month. I’ve improved the articles to try to address concerns but I have not changed my position. They are all notable. Bookworm857158367 ( talk) 13:41, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
Their work consists of names in general. Their coverage of individual names will most likely be insufficient for GNG to be met for each of them, as it is here. Avilich ( talk) 14:31, 26 June 2022 (UTC) reply
Each of these articles includes references to full length blog entries on the history and usage and meaning(s) of a particular name and references to its increase in popularity. Several of the blogs are by authors who have published works by independent publishers and/or have been quoted as experts in articles in prominent newspapers about names. In any event, this discussion has gone on for over a month and my position is simply not going to change. I have given good reasons why these articles are notable and should be kept.

He became famous by his role in the Kannada movie Rama Rama Re. The movie and he himself have won awards for that movie. A lot need to be written about Kannada movie industry in English media and Wikipedia. Since a lot is missing in English media about Kannada movie industry, people sitting at another corner of the world think that some person is not notable, some movie is not notable, some book is not notable, etc. This kind of unresearched opinionated action by some overenthusiastic persons is becoming detrimental to Kannada.

  • Weak keep. I found a review by Gilbert Adair in The Monthly Film Bulletin ( ProQuest  1305831871) and another by Marjorie Bilbow in Screen International ( ProQuest  963295923)—both are on the shorter side, but I think they probably qualify as significant coverage. (These magazines don't seem to be available in the Wikipedia Library, so if you'd like to check them out for yourself, feel free to email me and I'll send the PDFs.) The article also cites what appears to be a review in Film-Dienst, although I'm not sure if it's sigcov because I can't access the full text. Usually I'd prefer a bit more than this when making a GNG-based argument, but this is a case where WP:NEXIST encourages us to be flexible, in my view. This is a forty-year-old foreign-language film, so it was most likely reviewed in contemporaneous Spanish or Italian film magazines or newspapers that aren't available online. Although "but there might be offline sources!" isn't always a winning argument, !voters should "consider the possibility that sources may still exist even if their search failed to uncover any", and here I think that possibility is fairly high since we've already uncovered several English-language sources that get us most of the way to a GNG pass. I'd consider changing my !vote if someone with access to Spanish/Italian-language periodical archives wasn't able to find satisfactory sourcing. Extraordinary Writ ( talk) 23:14, 18 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep based on WP:NEXIST and Extraordinary Writ's points. Searching the BNE's digital periodical archives for Perisopio and Laura Gemser mentions in 1979 and 1980, [38] there seem to be at least reviews of the film in El Correo de Zamora, La Nueva España, and El Periódico de Catalunya. The exact content isn't accessible by me, but the minimal preview text points to at least some of these being qualifying reviews. — Carter (Tcr25) ( talk) 16:07, 23 June 2022 (UTC) reply

NN college dorm building. Should redirect to the university article where there is a list pf about a dozen other dorms, none with articles. MB 02:59, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply

For this university there do exist at least 8 separate articles about individual buildings. How about making a list-article summarizing about those, and covering more that are not obviously individually notable. The standard for eligibility of list-items can be way lower than that required for separate articles. -- Doncram ( talk) 02:35, 21 June 2022 (UTC) reply
A list could be beneficial for navigation but I don't see how deleting the individual articles would benefit the reader. Another benefit of individual pages is that they can be categorised much more specifically which again benefits the reader. NemesisAT ( talk) 17:56, 22 June 2022 (UTC) reply
User:NemesisAT, i didn't mean to suggest all the separate articles should be eliminated. They could be summarized though, and coordinates provided, and seen in context together. This one article, which has relatively little content, could perhaps be eliminated though, leaving a redirect to its coverage in list-article.-- Doncram ( talk) 02:31, 23 June 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect Appears to be of minor local interest, therefore non-notable. At most add a couple of sentences to the main article, anything more would distort its significance. Hzh ( talk) 20:18, 22 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    Being of minor local interest does not mean it isn't notable. Wikipedia is WP:NOTPAPER, there is no size limit. NemesisAT ( talk) 12:21, 23 June 2022 (UTC) reply
WP:NOTPAPER is irrelevant to this discussion. Some individual notability guidelines state that local entities need to have some significance to be notable (and the use of the word "minor" means that they are not significant). If you grandmother wins a prize in a local cake baking competition and gets mentioned in local newspapers and a student news site (which seem to be the extent of the sources in this article), that won't make her notable. Hzh ( talk) 21:12, 23 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. Fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NBUILDING. The article is primarily sourced to The Daily Eastern News which is EIU’s student run paper, and to the EIU housing website which is a primary source. These sources do not count as significant coverage because they lack independence from the university. There are only two independent refs in the article, both from The Journal Gazette; however they are routine coverage and I would not consider them significant per NOTNEWS. Even if they were significant, we still do not have the minimum of three independent references to meet GNG. I also oppose a redirect because this is an unlikely search topic and the building is probably not even worth mentioning in the target article because of issues with WP:Undue weight. 4meter4 ( talk) 06:51, 25 June 2022 (UTC) reply

If it were only its appearance in the formula for the golden ratio, we could redirect there, but its appearance in basic geometric shapes having nothing to do with the golden ratio, such as the diagonal length in a rectangle, and as the tight constant in Hurwitz's theorem (number theory), give it enough for independent notability. — David Eppstein ( talk) 00:40, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per David, especially given Hurwitz's theorem. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mello hi! ( 投稿) 04:30, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Perhaps not as clear-cut as square root of 3, but as explained above (and even in the 2007 AfD), its significance for the golden ratio, Fibonacci numbers, regular pentagon, and Hurwitz's theorem appear to give it enough coverage to pass GNG. [47] [48], for example, notwithstanding the references already present in the article. ComplexRational ( talk) 14:56, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per others above as well as the prior AfD discussion. There is clearly a substantial literature concerning special properties of this number. I do not understand the basis for suggesting deletion. Newyorkbrad ( talk) 15:42, 17 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Strong Keep. For all the above reasons stated, and simply because it is intrinsically connected to the golden ratio. In fact, given a sequence of Fibonacci and Lucas numbers, we can discern that It is such a profoundly powerful simple equation for , which can be replicated within a rectangle with simple measurements, making it an essential construction. It's not as important as the , but it is possibly the second most important square root of interest, alongside the square root of three given its universal trigonometric properties. This article is important, lets please keep it; thank you. Radlrb ( talk) 10:37, 21 June 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Note that in the first deletion nomination discussion, nobody was able to point out any reference that would support notability, of the 6 references at that time. Now, there are 14 references, and a somewhat better suggestion of notability of the square root of 5 as a special number. The arguments there that this number was "inherently notable" were weak, but now I think we're in a better place. Similarly, square roots of a few other small integers are pretty well sourced now. I'll admit that my satirical Square root of 4 article does not have quite the same support in sources, even though I found some good ones. For square roots of 2, 3, 6, and 7, there are pretty good sources. Higher than that, I don't think so. So this is where we draw the line. I don't think an article on the square root of 8 or 9 or 11 would fly; 10 maybe. Dicklyon ( talk) 05:06, 22 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    I don't imagine Square root of -1 would fly either, and I could be induced to make the identical argument for Square root of 0. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:00, 22 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    Square root of -1 is pretty important and notable, but it has other names. Square root of 1 and square root of 0 are too trivial, since they are just side effects of multiplicative and additive identities, which are well covered elsewhere. Dicklyon ( talk) 16:58, 22 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    @ RoySmith: Actually, the square root of minus-1 is one of the very most important numbers for us to have an article about, for both intrinsic and historical reasons, and of course we do have such an article; it is found under the title imaginary unit, to which "square root of -1" is a redirect. The square root of 0 is of course 0 itself, and we obviously have an important article about that number; there is no need for a separate "square root of" article where the "of" number is a perfect square and so the root itself is an integer. Newyorkbrad ( talk) 17:03, 22 June 2022 (UTC) reply
    Yes, I am fully aware of that. I was just having some pun. Hence my use of "imagine". I'll leave it to you folks to find the other puns I embedded. -- RoySmith (talk) 17:08, 22 June 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. Central in geometry in the measurement of equilateral triangles, hexagons, and cubes, and (unlike and the golden ratio) with no closely-related number to redirect to. Because of its connection to triangles and cubes, frequently used in refinement of spatial subdivisions. Apparently this number even has significant applications in relativistic physics [49]. Meets GNG: multiple publications have this number as their main topic ( JSTOR  2305032, [50]).

  • Delete as WP:FRINGE. There is superficial similarity with the concept of dry water, which is an emulsion of water (~95%) surrounded by silica (~5%). However, Germano et al. claim that their material is "predominantly water". In their recent DOI:10.14294/WATER.2021.2, methods of preparation include dipping cannabis in water and in a revealing discussion, apparently with a referee, that's included after the main text the authors say We were briefly treating the biological implications of the Xerosydryle existence and discovery in our other papers, suggesting that it may be the matrix of life itself. When the Xerosydryle is dissolved in water, in particular, it shows Circular Dichroism. Future research, not easy to perform, will be devoted to understanding if the right- or left-handed chirality is preferred under certain conditions; this may provide clues to understanding why almost all biologically produced chiral amino acids are left-handed, or about the dominance of the right-handed B-form of DNA.
