While he is on the British para-climbing team, there is little SIGCOV in any of the main climbing RS on him (neither British, nor international, per

The result was delete. In terms of numerically, there are six editors arguing to keep (one of whom qualified as "weak"), and twelve to delete (two of whom qualified as "weak"). Of course, AfD is not a simple vote or head count, but the numeric result is also not entirely irrelevant or meaningless.
Editors on both sides made reasonable, policy-based arguments for their positions; there was not one side or the other making entirely indefensible or unreasonable arguments. Those arguing to keep argued that there is sufficient reference material available to sustain an article on the topic, while those arguing against tended to argue that the topic is both overly speculative and may constitute needless content forking of material already covered in a parent article. With all this considered, the consensus, while not unanimous, is that this is not a suitable topic for a separate article at this time.

Wikipedia is not a collection of unverifiable speculation, rumors, or presumptions, All articles about anticipated events must be verifiable, Predictions, speculation, forecasts and theories stated by reliable, expert sources or recognized entities in a field may be included, Of course, we do and should have articles about notable artistic works, essays, or credible research that embody predictions. The claim that WP:CRYSTALBALL backs deletion is not true.
SuperΨDro 23:42, 10 February 2023 (UTC)reply
This article is of the type CRYSTAL warns us against, not of which it says are permissible. It is true that we have articles about notable artistic works, essays, or credible research that embody predictions. But that passage continues... An article on
weapons in Star Trek is appropriate; an article on
"Weapons to be used in World War III" is not. Are you suggesting that this article is about a notable artistic work (like Star Trek, or
Brave New World)? Or an essay or academic or non-fiction work like
The Population Bomb or
Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow? Those are appropriate topics because they are about a specific notable artistic or academic work that happens to be about a fictional future, or a specific prediction (that itself is notable). This article is more like "Weapons to be used in World War III", than the other examples. Compiling sources into some sort of
WP:OR/
WP:SYNTH prediction is not appropriate. If there are specific notable predictions about the Russo-Ukrainian War, in art, academia etc. they can be addressed in an article about that specific work, not the current article which is more in line with "Weapons to be used in World War III". Alternatively, if the relevant predictions are not notable enough for their own article it might be appropriate to mention them in the main article about the
Russo-Ukrainian War or one of its many sub-articles. That is not a reason to keep this article though.
Darryl Kerrigan (
talk) 02:12, 11 February 2023 (UTC)reply
This article is not a compilation of sources to make some kind of prediction, it is an article compiling sources making predictions. There is no WP:OR here, it is all verifiable and sourced. Point 3 of WP:CRYSTALBALL states Articles that present original research in the form of extrapolation, speculation, and "future history" are inappropriate. Although scientific and cultural norms continually evolve, we must wait for this evolution to happen, rather than try to predict it., which I believe is a warning against WP:OR, not against any articles on predictions.
SuperΨDro 08:10, 11 February 2023 (UTC)reply
This is not an article about a specific
notable prediction. As Marcelus seems to be saying below, it is an article that attempts to aggregate various non-notable predictions. Each of these predictions, on their own, are not notable enough for their own article. Perhaps not even notable enough for inclusion in
Russo-Ukrainian War, but that is a question for the editors there. Just because you can find academics, news agencies, and other normally
reliable sources prepared to say that
nuclear weapons are likely to be a weapon used in WW3, doesn't make a
Weapons to be used in World War III article appropriate. It might be a great essay, but as a Wikipedia article it is offside of both
WP:CRYSTALBALL and
WP:NOT, as Levivich has noted below.--
Darryl Kerrigan (
talk) 20:09, 13 February 2023 (UTC)reply
DeleteWP:CRYSTALBALL applies and there is nuance to what it states. Articles on future events should be scheduled and almost certain to take place. War is inherently unpredictable. Predictions, speculation, forecasts and theories stated by reliable, expert sources or recognized entities in a field may be included, though editors should be aware of creating undue bias to any specific point-of-view. To the first part of this, the guidance would generally refer to the sciences or theories established within other academic contexts. To the last part, the article has an inherent POV issue. All articles about anticipated events must be verifiable. However (per
WP:ONUS), verifiability does not guarantee inclusion. Another key issue is the quality of sources. Most of the sources relied upon are news sources. These news sources may be written by experts but they are neither expert sources nor of particularly good quality that would be associated with peer reviewed academic journals. Sorry but this seems much too long a bow to draw.
Cinderella157 (
talk) 01:09, 11 February 2023 (UTC)reply
In the same point in which it is stated that articles should be almost certain to take place, it is said that As an exception, even highly speculative articles about events that may or may not occur far in the future might be appropriate, where coverage in reliable sources is sufficient. For example, the ultimate fate of the universe is an acceptable topic. Notability plays a big role in here, and this topic does receive a wide coverage in sources which even though are not of the highest quality, are reliable.
SuperΨDro 08:10, 11 February 2023 (UTC)reply
My OP pretty much addresses this though not specifically. The
Ultimate fate of the universe is a topic of academic discussion arising from established scientific theory. These discussions are scientific extrapolations. Sources cited in
Ultimate fate of the universe are from academic journals and prima facie peer reviewed. The
Ultimate fate of the universe is therefore presented as an exception for scheduled or expected future events because it is exceptional. The
Future of Earth has similar merits to the
Ultimate fate of the universe with respect to theory and sourcing. On the other hand, I have already identified the inherent unpredictability of war, the POV inherent in the title, the strength of assertions compared with scientific theory (extrapolations) and the comparative weakness wrt news sources v peer reviewed sources. Articles subject to CRYSTAL have a much higher threshold of notability. It is not just a matter that sources exist but the depth of sources and several other considerations per CRYSTAL. There is absolutely no comparison between the AfD and the
Ultimate fate of the universe.
Cinderella157 (
talk) 11:37, 11 February 2023 (UTC)reply
There is no such a thing as a higher threshold of notability for articles. An article is either notable or not. This topic, being discussed by numerous experts in think tanks and major newspapers, governmental institutions (USIP for instance) and officials and even heads of state, is notable. This topic meets the condition where coverage in reliable sources is sufficient. I also see no NPOV violation in the title.
SuperΨDro 14:13, 11 February 2023 (UTC)reply
Delete. Respectfully, a "hypothetical victory" is a very strange topic for an article. This isn't a thing that exists. Even if you consider that the subject matter is the speculation by various parties of a potential Ukrainian victory, it still doesn't merit a separate article. If possible, the content should be rescued and merged into
Russo-Ukrainian War, but under no circumstances should this be a standalone article, per the above rationale laid out by both Cinderella157 and Darryl Kerrigan.

Keep There’s nothing wrong with an article about extrapolations. We do have a good article on
Future of Earth.
Of course it could be improved, but this one is a decent start (title could be more neutral, though). This article is not a prediction of what will happen: it is a roundup of academic and other discussion on what needs to happen, what is likely to happen, how to achieve certain ends, the possible repercussions, and so on. There is a body of study on ending wars or
war termination.
[21][22][23][24] Another whole aspect that’s written about and might belong in this article are the signs that a historical change may be taking place: the possible end of the post-Cold War period, or the “end of the end of history” or whatever.

Right, I’m not saying that article exists so this one must, specifically. I’m saying that article’s existence starkly disproves the supposed general principle that there can be no article about the future. But really, it should be self-evident because so much of science and the humanities are about “predictions”: snow will melt when the temperature rises above freezing, children will be healthier if they grow up without violence, risk of WW3 will be lower if nuclear weapons don’t proliferate, and so on.
That this is a notable subject suitable for a standalone article is attested by the twenty links on the subject provided in the proposal above. IMO, they only cover an aspect of the subject, which includes potential Ukrainian loss or Russian victory too. —MichaelZ. 15:08, 11 February 2023 (UTC)reply

SuperΨDro 08:12, 11 February 2023 (UTC)reply
Depends on the specific content/prediction we are talking about. Much of what is in this article likely is not notable or important enough for any other article (main or sub). The fact that some politician said that Ukraine will win (probably isn't). But perhaps some content here is. This is a fork article. If this content isn't appropriate in the main article, it shouldn't be here. Sure sometimes articles get too long and forks are necessary. Here the main issue is the value and quality of most if not all of the content. But also the way it is being used to be an OR speculative article about a possible future event contrary to CRYSTAL. Some of the content here might be worth saving. I am not sure any of it is though, because at this point this article is nothing but a flagrant violation of CRYSTAL.--
Darryl Kerrigan (
talk)
The apparent assumptions you've decided to stick to regarding this article such as that it is a WP:OR fabrication, that this article is a flagrant violation of WP:CRYSTAL or simplifications like some politician said that Ukraine will win are not productive to the discussion. If this article does violate Wikipedia politics will be decided by the outcome of this AfD. I do not believe discussion based on these personal assumptions which as evidenced here are not shared by all other editors is appropriate.
As for a merge. I do not see any reason why some information here would not be appropriate for
Russo-Ukrainian War. Again though there is a wide coverage of sources on this article's subject and the main article is way too long. One may also think on the potential length this article can reach. There are many other aspects that can still be included in this article, backed by reliable sources. That would only make a potential merge harder.

But of course I find redirecting better than deleting.

I can find mentions of the charity dog rescue from 2017, 2020 and 2022. There seems to be continued coverage about it, some a bit unflattering, but it's likely at GNG. She's mentioned in every article about the charity since 2017, she's clearly deeply involved with it. Not sure if that makes her notable. And based on what I've read in the last AfD and some of these articles, she tends to sue people that don't paint a flattering picture of the organization. Not sure I'm wanting to venture down that rabbit hole by creating the article, but a redirect is probably the best.

Delete - per
WP:BASIC and
WP:PROMO, and a redirect to
Redemption Paws could be created after deletion of this
WP:BROCHURE. There are a few reputable sources, e.g.
CBC Toronto,
CBS News,
CTV Toronto) but these reproduce promotional statements by Simone about Redemption Paws with minimal
secondary context to support
WP:BASIC notability. The Toronto Star has done some in-depth reporting on the organization but one of the
March 2022 reports is not about her, it includes her statements and denials of the allegations about the organization; another report in
March 2022 includes allegations about her and by her, and her denials of wrongdoing; and in
April 2022, there is some brief context about a prior legal case but otherwise denials of allegations. I think this kind of in-depth coverage of the organization can help support its notability, but for this article, seems insufficient to support
WP:BIO, particularly with the unsupported notability per
WP:MUSICBIO and
WP:NACTOR.

Redirect to
Redemption Paws. This is a tough case and I sure hope it doesn't end up in hopeless "no consensus" territory. Anyway, the problem is trying to cram too many careers into one article. There could possibly be a brief musician's article with the title Late July, focusing on that musical act in particular and simply mentioning her other names as historical info. That act got a few reviews, but her later music as Nicole Simone is unnoticed and non-notable. So she does not qualify for a full biography article as a musician. Meanwhile,
Redemption Paws is notable (maybe not for good reasons) and Nicole Simone is usually mentioned as their CEO, but those articles are about the organization with no support for individual notability for Simone. So redirect her name to the organization in case anyone searches for it. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (

I think these sources help raise further concerns about this article being
WP:ADMASQ, because there seems to be a pattern of likely paid self-promotion by the subject in low-quality sources:
The Confidence post is written by "a blogger and social media manager. She enjoys blogging about current events, lifehacks, and her experiences as a millennial working in New York." On this website, the Latest Articles sidebar lists "What Aspiring Professional Musicians Need to Know (An Interview with Jiawei..."; "How Does Online Video Marketing Work?"; "How To Create The Best Video Marketing"; "How Can You Use Video Marketing?"; "How To Create An Animated Marketing Video". This is not a reliable source and it further lacks independence because it is based on an interview ("With the rest of the article, we’d like to share some of Simone’s thoughts...").
Inspirationfeed "is a digital magazine covering everything from quotes, net worth, self-development, entrepreneurship, entertainment, technology, and creativity." It is also a
sponsored content farm: "Inspirationfeed also occasionally receives monetary compensation or other types of remuneration for mentioning and/or linking to any products and services from this blog." It is not reliable coverage of her or her work with Redemption Paws.
The Linger source lacks a byline and appears to be reproduced marketing copy, on a website that
describes itself as "an internation publication that showcases the industries of fashion, beauty and art with a focus on the creatives" and offers "celebrity interviews, coveted event coverage, engaging collaborations, industry partnerships and more" - this is a low-quality content farm that appears to have no staff or editorial policies posted.
Artvoice "was excited by the opportunity to talk to Simone about all of her projects" and is not independent coverage, and the reliability of this website appears questionable at best.
EssentiallyPop is a
blog, and the paragraph intro to the Q&A that might as well be a press release is trivial coverage about her, although it has an interesting factoid about the location of the original television Bat Cave.
Fierce and Fabulous Revolution is another
blog, that also appears to reproduce the same marketing copy that appears on other websites.
The WeFoundNewMusic post is marked "blog" and the website
describes itself as "an artist discovery platform".
Two Story Melody is a website with over 30 contributing writers
listed, and the 8 sentences of superficial marketing copy that precedes the Q&A is trivial coverage in this context.
The MusicTalkers post is written by "a regular contributor for established press release distribution website Release-News.com." The website also offers a sliding scale
Music Promotion Packages and has other indicators of being a sponsored content farm.
The OCNJDaily post is bylined to "MediaWize" and is based on what Simone says. MediaWize appears to
post similar interviews and PR copy.
LadyGunnnotes that it has "a VERY SMALL editorial team", and the excessively-capitalized introduction to the Q&A posted by LadyGunn staff is a version of the same superficial marketing copy that appears across similar websites.
The Hollywood Dynamics post is written by "a writer and blogger for Hollywood Dynamics", and its sidebar includes links to "How Much Are Ubers In Los Angeles", "How Much Are Utilities In Los Angeles", "How To Watch Ncis Los Angeles In Uk", "How Much Is Uber From Los Angeles To San Diego", "How Much Is A Storage Unit In Los Angeles", "How Much Is Unemployment In Los Angeles", "How Far Is Los Angeles From Las Vegas By Plane" and "How To Get Vaccinated In Los Angeles", which seem to be SEO clickbait for this spam website. The intro to the Q&A is also a version of the same superficial marketing copy that appears across similar websites.

[35] - the mentions appear to mostly be related to her statements, which is not independent coverage of her.

It can be stressful when someone nominates an article you worked on for deletion. It may help you to know that I doubt this one will get deleted, it seems to be heading towards being kept or merged or renamed.
Beccaynr has a track record of careful and thoughtful editing, and even though I disagreed with their edits here, it seems clear to me that they are editing in good faith. The justification for the investigation seems fair to me. Assuming good faith (link to guideline:
WP:AGF) is the expected norm on Wikipedia and action can be taken against editors who don't. Also, if you really have an issue with someone's behaviour, the starting point is a conversation on their talk page.

Comment Hello again everyone! As you might remember I nominated her article for deletion last time. As I don’t have much experience with Wikipedia and my motivation for that nomination was under suspicion I’m just commenting here, however I support either delete or redirect. The analysis of sources by
Beccaynr is excellent and I think says enough. There hasn’t been any significant increase in notability for her music since the last article was deleted, however there has been some in relation to Redemption Paws.
As you can tell from the paid media coverage Nicole Simone has a habit of trying to buy fame and awards. Analysis of her social media following suggests she may have paid for a significant amount of her followers, and therefore I would not be surprised if she paid someone to create this page again, many business will take your money to do this. Therefore I find Redrosally’s involvement quite interesting, particularly how they “added more info about redemption paws” to the article as indicated on the talk page, yet managed to exclude all mention of the Toronto Stars articles. Arguably those articles are the most significant reporting done on the organization and also some of the most recent. I don’t find the section on redemption paws to be neutral as Redrosally wrote it given that omission. I also find immediately jumping to the assertion that they are being bullied to be interesting as on Redemption Paws social media they have used the same language that they are “being bullied” in response to any negative criticism.
I do support a redirect to Redemption Paws as I agree the organization is notable. However I have concerns about that article remaining neutral. I originally nominated her article after becoming increasingly frustrated with Greg, a personal friend of Nicole gatekeeping the edits and reverting anything that wasn’t positive.
Further Nicole herself has already tweeted about this Afd discussion, however in a way that grossly misrepresents the situation saying “In 2021 my Wikipedia was vandalized and removed. This year it was brought back and is now being removed but I'm just watching it like OK, how does this keep happening. Read it while you can! lol”
I find it quite suspect that she immediately knew about the page creation, unless she had a hand in its creation. Also her saying that it was vandalism and no mention of it being removed for lack of notability seems intentionally misleading.
Oaktree b Said “based on what I've read in the last AfD and some of these articles, she tends to sue people that don't paint a flattering picture of the organization. Not sure I'm wanting to venture down that rabbit hole by creating the article”
This is correct. Currently she is suing the former foster of Mayo (the dog profiled in the Toronto Star article who was sent to Newfoundland with no plan and eventually euthanized) for libel, slander and breach of contract. They have been maintaining an instagram account “dkfosters” where they have continued to highlight issues with Redemption paws and share other peoples experiences. This could very well be a legal rabbit hole and your concerns are valid.
She is also currently involved in a legal dispute over the ownership of a former foster dog that was adopted by their foster parent. Months after adopting when the owner posted a comment on the Redemption Flaws website Redemption Paws decided to take the dog back (by taking it from a vet without the owner present) and assert it had been stolen. A gofundme for legal fees have been started by the owner (espieandej on instagram). This legal action appears to be retaliation.
Redemption Paws themselves have recently posted about these lawsuits on their own social media, attempting to defend that they aren’t SLAPP suits.
I think that’s it… just wanted to provide some context and share my concerns. — Preceding

Delete: As in the 1st AfD, I reviewed the sources and found that almost all are content supplied by the subject: either interviews or material that shows up identically on different sites, or is otherwise obviously not researched by the publication itself. For example, a new one, The Confidence (as above) has a home page covered with articles on how online video marketing works, and what the aspiring professional musician needs to know. These are not reliable sources for notability. And given the article's rise from the ashes only 14 months after deletion, I also support SALTing. The only reliable coverage I see is the
Redemption Paws topic, and the article that now exists is adequate in my opinion. The CEO simply isn't notable as an individual outside this role. My two cents. signed, Willondon (

Delete. Being chair of a political party, even at the national level, is not an "inherent" inclusion freebie that guarantees a Wikipedia article — it can count for something if the person is the subject of sufficient coverage and analysis about their work in the role to pass
WP:GNG, but it isn't automatically notable enough that relying on primary sources and glancing namechecks of her existence in coverage of other things would be sufficient.

Lamona (

While that might be suitable (following a page update, as you suggest), I think
2021 Libertarian National Committee chair special election is the most appropriate target page for a redirect. She features prominently in that article, with already-existing coverage that is more than would be fitting for the LP of Texas article (IMO).
Sal2100 (

That makes some sense, but quite honestly I am not sure that article meets notability itself as there are no substantive independent sources on the topic of the election.
Lamona (

Good point. Upon close inspection, that article does appear to be a prime candidate for deletion or merging based on a lack of
RS-based sourcing. I have updated the LP of Texas article to include her election as national chair, and I now agree that it is the better target page for a redirect.

Delete - I haven't really looked in to whether or not Judy has become significantly notable in her own right that an article split off from the main
Zootopia article is appropriate, but even if it were, this is not the proper article to do so for multiple reasons. The entire article is just a list of appearances, and some of the descriptions for these appearances are literally just copied/pasted from the official descriptions of the games being described, and there are no reliable sources present. Also, if an article on Judy was to be created, it would likely be done at the
Judy Hopps space (currently being used as a Redirect to the movie), rather than this title with its odd, unnecessary specifier. In short, whether or not Judy is notable or not, this current article is not the proper article for that, and should be removed from the encyclopedia mainspace, either through deletion or (to be generous) sending back to draft.

That's twelve sources of varying quality and with varying focuses. Would you be willing to pick the best
WP:THREE and explain why you think they motivate having an article for this fictional character separate from the work of fiction the character appears in?
TompaDompa (
talk) 00:01, 12 February 2023 (UTC)reply
Single articles of works would be way too large if all information about notable individual characters were shoved into them, and this character has appeared in several other places than the original work they debuted in. I don't really care about sources having "varying focuses" or "varying quality" as long as they can still be considered reliable overall (if you think one or more do not qualify as reliable at all feel free to point out them specifically). I have demonstrated in depth coverage and I could easily find more with some more Googling, so I don't really feel like picking a "top 3" for whatever reason.
★Trekker (
talk) 00:47, 12 February 2023 (UTC)reply
Articles aren't supposed to include all information in the first place, they are supposed to summarize. Sources do not just need to be
WP:Reliable, they also need to provide
WP:Significant coverage. In particular, coverage of fictional characters needs to go beyond plot description and be coverage specifically of the character(s) rather than the work(s) they appear in. The reason I'm asking is that I took a quick look at some of these sources and am not convinced that the coverage actually meets these criteria. That is to say, I'm not persuaded that a separate article for the character is warranted.
Source number 6 is about a chatbot.
Source number 5 mainly contains plot detail, and some of what I would characterize as analysis of Zootopia (rather than analysis of the character Judy Hopps).
Source number 8 is about a deleted scene.
Source number 12 is about the different
varieties of English used by different characters in Zootopia and contains, to my eye, no significant coverage of the character Judy Hopps (though the character is of course mentioned).

If there is adequate sourcing for other characters, I would recommend you take the time to create that article.

Keep per the above sourcing, and I'll note that the delete arguments which assert non-notability in the face of sourcing, without disputing that sourcing, are not policy based. Our acme is not whether a character appears in more than one fictional work, but whether that character has received sufficient coverage.

Semi-advertorialized article about an entrepreneur, not
properly sourced as passing our inclusion criteria for entrepreneurs. As always, businesspeople are not automatically entitled to have articles just because they and their companies exist, and have to be shown to pass
WP:GNG on their sourceability -- but this is not referenced to any significant
reliable source coverage about him, instead citing a mixture of
primary source press releases from his own companies, blogs, directory entries, glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other things, and purely tangential verification of stray facts in sources that completely fail to name Rudy Rupak in conjunction with them at all, none of which are notability-building sources. There's also a likely
conflict of interest here, as the article was created by a virtual
WP:SPA whose editing interests revolve almost exclusively around Rudy Rupak -- even the stuff in their edit history that doesn't seem obviously connected, such as
Sainte-Adèle and
Les Misérables, still hinged on finding ways to shoehorn Rudy Rupak into them. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have considerably better referencing than this.

Delete Not only overly promotional, and with many of the sources not even name-checking him, and others doing only that, this guy must be related to George Santos because the stories told in this article are unbelievable. I suspect that this is an act of reputation-washing, as this fellow has been in jail for attempted murder (he was just protecting his home!), was indicted for embezzelment, and runs or has run a medical tourism business where he was accused of fraud, with some indication of (even for that biz) shady deals. Almost nothing here can be confirmed in RS - the statement that he had a game company links to an Answers.com that is unrelated to that. I also wonder about the IMDB entries, since those can be modified. The NY Times article on surrogacy only mentions him, although it does say that he was a co-founder of the company. (Note that "co-" isn't in the article here.) The section on Surrogacy Controversy is basically a cover-up of a crime, as he moved from the US to Mexico and allegedly defrauded folks from there (
NY Times). In any case, the only verifiable info seems to be this guy's crimes, but I don't think those rise to the level of notability.
Lamona (

Here's an LA Times article about his
medical tourism business that says more about him (but is mainly about the biz). I note that it says that he has only a high school diploma (in the ending portion) while above that it says he attended medical school in S Africa. This WP article says he attended a technical college in India.
Lamona (

It just keeps getting better. The Indian Institute that he supposedly attended after a year of college (around 1970) is a
non-profit formed in 2022 in California, and which may not have yet done anything. The link to that lists his name as Rupak Acharya. The article here gives his name as Acharyya Rupak and using that name I can find
"US v Acharyya Rupak", a news release
"International Surrogacy Clients Defrauded in Racketeering Scheme". He apparently was sentenced to jail time in 2017, and this article was mostly created by an SPA in 2022. His creation of a medical tourism service and subsequent conviction for fraud may almost make this fellow notable, but as a criminal.

Iffy Firstly, please sign off when you are giving a comment. Secondly, the player does not have any significant achievements that allows her to have separate article (see NTENNIS). I agree that merging is a good way, but just FYI her sister's article is very close to failing NTENNIS as well. For the biography section, the information is very unimportant (such as matches in W15 tournaments), poorly written and not neutral at all. It just seems that her friends wrote it rather than an encyclopedia. If you are still not sure here are the notability guidelines for tennis players:
Winner of an ITF tournament that has a prize money more than $50,000 (the sisters didn't achieve this)
Winner of a Junior Grand Slam (not achieved either)
Participant in the main draw of high-level tournaments (achieved by Tornado, not by Hurricane; this is the only reason that I did not nominate Tornado's article for deletion)
Thirdly, enough sources doesn't mean that the person is notable; the sources are just about the small tournaments and doesn't have any reference value.
Source 1: About an under-18 ITF tournament (not notable)
Apologies, this is what source 2 was meant to link to:
[48]. The URL changed when I scrolled down to the bottom of the page. Also, tennis players don't have to meet NTENNIS to have biographies, they can be notable for other reasons or merely for receiving significant coverage in the tennis media a lot (regardless of their achievements). Finally, the currently quality of an article is not a reason to keep or delete the article (
WP:NOTCLEANUP).

Is it just because her name is special and her sister is a tennis player as well? I mentioned the quality of the article not because it is a reason for deletion, but because I want to show that the career information about the player is limited (relying on statistical pages as sources), and the creator of this article might not understand the guidelines of an article.

Does not meet notability guidelines as is and I found zero additional coverage. Previous AfD claims 1. Notability per
WP:BAND #5 (at least one album was released by
Tragic Hero Records so it might qualify there, but that alone wouldn't clear it for me) and 2. Coverage potentially existing in "outlets like Alternative Press and Absolute Punk" which was not linked and said to be "difficult to surface through casual Googling". Worth considering, but that comment is over two years old and nobody's tracked down said coverage yet so its existence is still only an assumption.

Unlikely to be notable by sources. The two sources presented here fail spectacularly. One (now dead;
archived copy) talks about the old residence of a former mayor whose surname is carried by this road, but there is no single mention of the street in the source. Another,
from GMA News, talks about the opening of the Estrella–Pantaleon Bridge, but no mention of the street itself even if it connects to the bridge. In effect both sources tried to infer through name but lean towards
WP:OR.
Unless more reliable sources that do not trivially mention the street are presented, this street fails in notability dramatically. Failure to become eligible for

No evidence of
notability for this list of results for a minor competition with unremarkable results. For example, searching for the winner of the 10.000m, Lahcen Essoussi gives a tiny handful of hits, the best being a non-independent source of the Monegasque Athletics Federation confirming his medals
[52] but nothing further about him
[53]. If even the winner of an event (plus another medal) is so completely lacking in coverage, then it seems unlikely that this received much coverage beyond routine results reports.

Keep – Athletics at the Games of the Small States of Europe are arguably notable even if the results are generally not world class. This part of a long-standing series of events the recent editions of which are widely covered in media of the participating countries (though not always in English, as only Malta and Cyprus are partly English-speaking). I've dug some contemporary Icelandic coverage for some days of the competition which doesn't just list the results.
[54][55][56]. Unfortunately Iceland is the only participating country with a free newspaper archive, but I expect the Games would also get the coverage in the others, as they do today. Also, even if some events have unknown winners, there are many Olympians that have competed at these Games, e.g.
Anninos Marcoullides,
Eggert Bogason,
Pétur Guðmundsson or
Marios Hadjiandreou. In addition, we do have some coverage of similar scale events,
Island Games or
Pacific Games, so I don't see why we shouldn't cover these Games too, at least showing the medallists.

The article was previously deleted in 2017 as not
notable. Soon after, it was re-created but with different content. It's not only about notability concerns.
WP:BLP also applies, and the whole content about the subject may more likely fail that policy. Recently, I
asked others about contentious content. One was more concerned about the subject's notability more than what's written about him, including supposed
coatracking
Before asking around, I created a
draft that was supposed to replace the content. However, as I was developing the draft, I couldn't find any reliable source on newer updates, including current marital status. The latest I can find is 2006 or 2007. I haven't found a reliable source verifying a supposed divorce, so I decided to have the draft deleted. Furthermore, post-Survivor info about him seems more negative and disturbing.

Keep: Reading
WP:NEXIST: "The absence of sources or citations in an article (as distinct from the non-existence of sources) does not indicate that a subject is not notable. Notability requires only the
existence of suitable independent, reliable 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. Thus, before
proposing or
nominating an article for deletion, or offering an opinion based on notability in a deletion discussion, editors are strongly encouraged to attempt to find
sources for the subject in question and consider the possibility that sources may still exist even if their search failed to uncover any.", and clarifying that point, the Sachin criminal is better positioned in English, however, by doing a quick search in Spanish, new reliable and independent sources can be found, such as

Comment I did look at each of the references in the article, plus other sources that I found. First, I do think it is odd that most of the references are from South American sites, (his businesses are presumably in India although that is not made clear), and none of those sites provide much in the line of editorial integrity. One self-describes as a blog post. The ones that I did find in English are all paid entries, like
this one in forbes and
this one in Life and Style. Looking under his company name, GoGo Capital, I find PR pieces like
this. I also note that many of the sources in the article are entertainment/celebrity focused, which makes it odd that they have an article about a supposed tech entrepreneur. It would not be unreasonable to wonder if those aren't paid placements, as the ones in Forbes and Life and Style are. BTW, the link to Life and Style for some reason redirects to an article about Lindsay Lohan.

Keep With the upmost thanks and respect to all concerned, I submit the following:
WP:SNG's guidelines are much more applicable to subject than
WP:GNG for which the article was submitted for. Specifically, author and academics which are "explicitly listed as an alternative" to
WP:GNG and state "Many scientists, researchers, philosophers and other scholars (collectively referred to as "academics" for convenience) are notably influential in the world of ideas without their biographies being the subject of secondary sources." and " Conversely, failure to meet either the general notability guideline or other subject-specific notability guidelines is irrelevant if an academic is notable under this guideline." and "Academics meeting any one of the following conditions..." met by #7 stating "The person has had a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity" and "Notability depends on the impact the work has had on the field of study." which is clearly demonstrated by multiple mainstream sources such as ProPublica twice recently and Orlando Sentinel in 2009 demonstrating longer standing history of such, and subject's research cites in other research and books, industry recognition such as the FBI LEO Bulletin, and academic recognition by the subject's Alma Mater. In addition under
WP:AUTH "The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique" again clearly demonstrated by sources in the article.
The subject matter of criminal justice research, theories and techniques are not generally the topic of mainstream media attention, and judgement for inclusion should consider this as accepted by the academic criteria. There have also been a number of potential sources added to the talk page prior to initial PROD and subsequent AfD which should help editors following the intent to improve before delete opportunity to do so as per "Step One: Verify if the article in question can be improved rather than be deleted" from the "A five-step approach to deletion" guidelines. Considering additional edits and sources have been added since both PROD and AfD for
WP:GNG vs other, clearly specified criteria mentioned here, by only one editor (myself) it seems these guidelines do not seem to me they have been carefully reviewed and applied prior to nomination. I agree the article does need additional improvement and welcome all editors to further collaborate and contribute. Thank you.

Comment/questionThis source in the article, a page about Samar Singh Dungarpur, states that SSD is a recipient of the
Order of the Golden Ark award, but they are not mentioned at the Order's article. Is there a different source on the Order giving out its award which can be used now to develop the Order article, and more clearly establishing that SSD is a recipient. And, what is the importance of this award, why did SSD receive it? There is no development about this in the article, so it is hard to see how their receiving a national level award (this award?) means they are notable. --Doncram (

This article can't be deleted via CSD G5 as there are many other editors who have contributed to this article. I think this discussion is too tainted by sockpuppetry and relisting will not help.

You missed the second half of that sentence; If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability. I don't have access to all of those, but of those I do most appear trivial and none contain
WP:SIGCOV; not enough to meet
WP:GNG or
WP:NBIO, and a violation of

Merge with

WP:NSPORTS and
WP:GNG, brief mentions of Young in routine transfer and game reports do not demonstrate notability; there isn't enough source material to write a biography.

Move to Draft-for now. This one is a very tough call, given the sources that BeanieFan11 provided (I can see both sides of this argument.) My thought is to move this to draft in order to give
BeanieFan11 an opportunity to uncover some sources, which will obviously require a ton of work and time. In my experience, BeanieFan11 does great work expanding similar articles and turning them into decent BIO's. With the mass nominating happening recently, I understand Beanie's frustration given their passion in this subject/project, given that the opportunity cost of trying to find sources on EVERY one of these nominations is losing the articles and all of the information, since it wouldn't be archived. There shouldn't be a huge rush to delete this article, so give BeanieFan11 some time by putting this article in draft, and I will do what I can to help if I'm able.

Oh, I know
Hey man im josh, just pointed it out as an option, so that at least a second opinion from a reviewer could support it, but I absolutely know that
BeanieFan11 is more capable than most to make the article passable and expanded. That’s why I think moving to draft is a good option, giving Beanie some time to uncover very hard to find articles almost certainly will help, as he’s done it so many times before. There aren’t a ton of editors who are dedicated to early NFL coverage, and there should not a huge rush to delete all of these player articles. The fact that so many AfD’s in this topic are being raised so quickly, how can Beanie have the time to actually perform these thorough searches? I know there is a 7 day period for this AfD, but this all volunteer, so move this to draft and preserve all the information archived.

It's unclear what purpose this DBA serves. The first suggestion of
Kao (bull) could possibly be misspelled as "Cow" (and perhaps this could be redirected to it), but no one would ever search for the second in such a manner. I recomend deletion to avoid all ambiguity.

Delete. This is a dab page with two entries: for
Kao (bull) and
Cow/
Bull. Neither is referred to as "cow (bull)", so this doesn't work as a dab page. A redirect at this title wouldn't work either as the search term
is ambiguous and too vague and convoluted to be of use to readers. –

Non-notable sports journalist, the only source available in the article is clearly unreliable, and the only sources I could find from a search were either also unreliable or primary sources.

Keep per GNG. See

[103]. Combined with the primary sources (and excluding the one currently on the page), there is enough here to merit inclusion.--

deleteI just went to google to look for more references and expand article. First page showed things Twitter and Facebook as well as link to media outlet she is affiliated with that linked to two articles she wrote. IMHO, limited if any independent verifiable sources. The one that is listed strikes me as something from a PR firm.

Delete After reviewing the sources I believe she fails
WP:GNG due to lack of multiple
significant coverage from multiple publications. The
travelandwritetoday.com source is a blog and does not go towards passing
WP:GNG per
WP:BLOGS. The
Colorado.edu source is from her school and thus a
WP:PRIMARY source. The three sources from Boston.com and considered to be a single source per
WP:N. The
last one is from a student-run news source at the
Dana Hall School, which is for ages 10-17/18 if I understand it correctly which in my opinion is not a significant source.
