This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Dominican Republic. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Dominican Republic|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove links to other discussions ( prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Dominican Republic.

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

The article was created, moved to draftspace, then moved back to article space by the page creator before a review occurred. I was advised to start a debate here by @ Jéské Couriano:. DeemDeem52 ( talk) 18:00, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Companies and Dominican Republic. DeemDeem52 ( talk) 18:00, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
    Note for posterity that I don't actually believe that the article should be deleted; I think notability is proven by the available sources, as well as these which I found myself: [1] [2] [3] [4] I am mainly putting this here because I understand that it is policy for controversial moves to draftspace. DeemDeem52 ( talk) 18:06, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
    @ DeemDeem52, The only need to start an AFD is if you think it should be deleted. AFC is optional and articles do not need to be reviewed by the AFC volunteers, except in certain cases of COI or a history of undesirable content creation. So if you do not think this should be deleted and is demonstrably notable you can withdraw this nomination. McMatter ( talk)/( contrib) 18:19, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
    I see; the reason I included this in AfD was because I was advised to here. What should be the proper process for returning this to draftspace? DeemDeem52 ( talk) 18:30, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Draftify: The history shows this to be a disputed draftification. It appears to be susceptible to improvement, though I have not determined its true notability. Draft space gives those interested the time and peace and quiet to see if the can be achieved 🇺🇦  FiddleTimtrent  FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 18:38, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Keep or Draftify: Searching for info on this, it clearly meets GNG and there is lot of room to expand (which might be best to do in draft space instead of keeping it as a stub). —Carter (Tcr25) ( talk) 19:50, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Keep, while a little rushed, notability is demonstrated here and while AfC or draftify is preferential when an article isn't suitable for mainspace, there is nothing inherently wrong with this stub. microbiologyMarcus petri dish· growths 20:43, 29 May 2024 (UTC) reply
  • Withdraw: The article has now been reviewed, so I don't think there's really any more reason to keep this up for draftification. (I think the relevant policy would now require a speedy keep from someone who's not me, though.) DeemDeem52 ( talk) 18:35, 30 May 2024 (UTC) reply

As far as I can tell, there's pretty much zero coverage of this person outside of the routine announcements, and NPOL doesn't extend to everybody working in the office of the state level politicans in question. Alpha3031 ( tc) 13:37, 12 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Keep : I looked into it and found the following new sources which are independent and have significant coverage: [1], [2], [3]. This a notable subject and fulfills the WP:NPOL as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Caddygypsy ( talkcontribs) 16:48, 15 May 2024 (UTC) Also, {{ page creator}} and all that.

  • Comment: This article meets WP:GNG as far as I can tell. If the sources are reliable and fully backed up being the host of a notable TV show possibly meets WP:ENT. The NPOL may not be for here. Why not redirect to the show? Safari Scribe Edits! Talk! 07:38, 30 May 2024 (UTC) reply
    I won't quibble on whether they had a significant role (eswiki article on the show is no help since it only goes up to 2008 and has even fewer references than ours), but ENT specifically says multiple, SafariScribe, and I don't think I've seen anything that claims they were part of any other notable production. I also don't see anything that could really be considered GNG or BASIC-level SIGCOV, anything beyond bare mentions seem to be routine coverage surrounding the announcement, excluded by SBST. No objection to redirect though, I just didn't want to BLAR since I anticipated an objection was not unlikely. Alpha3031 ( tc) 13:28, 1 June 2024 (UTC) reply
