  • Comment I really don't understand the point of this AfD, the article should of been sent straight to draft space. Firstly the club is brand new, signed up to the second tier of the Bangladeshi football pyramid, I think it's completely unfair to ask for notability when teams require time to establish that. That's partly why we have draft space, to help build articles of this kind. This is stigma deletion. Govvy ( talk) 10:37, 19 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Comment As these were inter-related operations which occurred simultaneously (Persecution was undertaken to support Reckless), there's probably merit in having this article for essentially disambiguation purposes. I agree that there's no grounds to develop it into a 'proper' article though. Nick-D ( talk) 02:14, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete "A and B" type article titles have very little value as disambiguation. If you already have to say "and"... ( t · c) buidhe 08:14, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: G'day, I can see some disambig purposes, but given both Operation Reckless and Operation Persecution exist as redirects to the individual battle articles, there probably isn't a need for this. If it does remain, I'd suggest converting it into a proper dab page, rather than leaving it as an article and potentially leading to more duplication. Regards, AustralianRupert ( talk) 10:05, 18 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Since both operations already have pages, having one that mentions both is a bit cloying, so this one could be turned into a dab page. TH1980 ( talk) 23:39, 19 July 2020 (UTC) reply

The article says almost every last thing I can find out about Argusville, and one thing that nobody but WP and GNIS says: that it is a "populated place". Every source I can find identifies it as a post office 3 miles north of Bieber. The one other thing I found is that this source identifies it with Hillside, California, except that Hillside, by the directions given by Durham, would be almost six miles south of Bieber. Of course, this presupposes that Durham is talking about the present-day Lookout. At any rate, I see nothing indicating that Argusville was a town. Mangoe ( talk) 20:14, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Sorry, but not every mine is notable; if we are not a gazetteer, then we are not a gazetteer nor a directory of mines. I don't think you appreciate how common these things are, and how pitiful little information is known about them. 95% of them would fail WP:GNG, and while there is something to be said for notability guidelines which simplify checking, they are not loopholes for inclusion of minor items dear to a particular project.

  • Delete There is a possible argument for keep based on the fact all members are indeed from notable bands. The problem is the sourcing. Just amatuer blogs covering the local music scene (including a gig at a local high school!). My hunch is the lack of coverage is that this is just a casual group of ex-1970's band members who all live in the same town, have been jamming together for years, play some gigs under a band name and decide to self-release a 6 song ep comprising covers of songs they did in their various former bands. It strikes me that this is more of a fun hobby for ex-rock stars than a full-fledged band worthy of encyclopedic importance.

  • Keep Thanks for the thoughts, everyone. I oppose the articles for deletion and would argue that this page should be kept, as Tawlks meets the guidelines for notability as outlined in WP:MUSICBIO and WP:COMPOSER. Specifically, point one: "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself." The references of this article contain many non-trivial sources, such as Paste Magazine, Nashville Scene, and Lightning 100.

Point two, he has released "two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels" as producer. Regarding WP:COMPOSER, Tawlks has "credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition." Naturally, a producer doesn't seem as notable as an artist, but given his roster of collaborations, I would argue that he does meet the notability guidelines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joshalxwarren ( talkcontribs) 13:20, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Lots of references are passing mentions. Looking at them:
  1. Ref 1 is a passing mention all the while moving in the same circles as Micah Tawlks
  2. Ref 2 is a passing mention This time around producers Kevin Dailey (of Civil Twilight) and Micah Tawlks join him
  3. Ref 3 is a passing mention brainchild of producer Micah Tawlks
  4. Ref 4 show in the first track.
  5. Ref 5 Micah Tawlks Engineer
  6. Ref 6 Cold Answer: written by Matthew Perryman Jones & Caitlin Rose/Produced by Micah Tawlks
The rest the references as a producer. Consensus on Wikipedia is that procedures are really not notable. There is a reference on Mother Jones: [2] stated Micah Tawlks, a producer who works with the likes of Matthew Perryman Jones, and Isaaca Byrd, a bassist and backup vocalist for a range of artists, cranked out the bulk of the EP in three weeks USA Today has another passing mention, “‘Giving Up’ was produced by Micah Tawlks and myself On Instagram [3] he has 1600 followers, so no social presence. On Soundcloud [4] he has 42 follower. So he is no musician, he is a producer and he is non-notable. scope_creep Talk 19:21, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete all sources seem to be passing or otherwise trivial mentions, and the person isn't automatically notable just because of who they work with. So, I see nothing here that would make them notable enough for an article. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 19:23, 24 July 2020 (UTC) reply

      The book notes: "The Encyclopedia of Operations Management: A Field Manual and Glossary of Operations Management Terms and Concepts".

      The encyclopedia has an entry for Supply Chain Council:

      Supply Chain Council – A non-profit professional society dedicated to the meeting the needs of supply chain management professionals; most famous for its development and use of the SCOR Model.

      The Supply Chain Council was founded in 1996 by the consulting firm Pittiglio Rabin Todd & McGrath (PRTM) and AMR Research and initially included 69 voluntary member companies.

      The Supply Chain Council now has about 1,000 corporate members worldwide and has established international chapters in North America, Europe, Greater China, Japan, Australia/New Zealand, South East Asia, Brazil and South Africa. Development of additional chapters in India and South America are underway. The Supply Chain Council's membership consists primarily of practitioners representing a broad cross-section of industries, including manufacturers, services, distributors, and retailers.

      The article notes:

      The Supply-Chain Council (SCC) was founded with the aim of creating an "ideal" model of the Supply Chain. ... The increasing diffusion area of the SCOR model acceptance in the USA since the late 1990s, seen alongside the rapidly climbing number of SCC members, is an indication that a de facto standard for Supply Chain analysis is developing. With the reinforced efforts of the SCC to create a user basis in Europe via the foundation of a European Chapter, the SCOR model will, on these indications, continue to be diffused throughout Europe.

      The book notes:

      The SCOR model was developed and promoted by the SCC as a pan-industry standard for Supply Chain monitoring. The SCC was founded in 1996 by the Business Consultancy agency Pittiglio, Rabin, Todd & McGrath (PRTM) and Advanced Manufacturing Research (AMR), and originally included 69 voluntary member firms. Of equal importance for the SCOR model's diffusion are the respective inputs of manufacturers and implementers of system technologies, researchers and scientists, and governmental organizations. All of these groups participate in the SCC's activities and in the development and enhancement of the model. By the beginning of 2006, the SCC had more than 1,000 members worldwide and had branches in North America, Europe, Japan, Australia/New Zealand, Southeast Asia and South Africa.

      ...

      Member firms pay a small yearly subscription in support of SCC's functions. All who use the SCOR model are asked to make reference to the SCC in documents or representations applying to the model, in addition to all cases of its application. Additionally, members are urged to regularly visit the SCC's internet page and make themselves familiar with the latest information available in order to ensure that they are using the latest version of SCOR. The SCOR model represents, in a transposed sense, the SCC's consensus with respect to the management of the Supply Chain.

      The book notes on page 161:

      In Chapter 23 we profile the work of the Supply-Chain Council (SCC). The SCC is a non-profit organization formed by industry to promote supply chain integration. Since much of its work is directed toward the integration of information along the supply chain, we describe it at this point in the book.

      Chapter 23 is titled "Supply-Chain Council".

      The article notes:

      Within the private sector, the foremost industry authority on SCM is the Supply Chain Council (SCC). The SCC is comprised of nearly a thousand companies specializing in SCM and logistics functions. They perform SCM studies and research, present conferences and workshops, provide training, accomplish case studies, and publish articles on SCM issues and best practices. The SCC is the author and developer of the Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) Model, a proven methodology and the only cross-industry supply chain standard being accepted, which facilitates the blending of business objectives, strategy, process, and technology.

      ...

      As previously mentioned, the SCC is recognized as an authority on SCM. It consists of nearly a thousand companies worldwide, many of which use the Council's services of training, research, and SCM implementation processes. The SCC is the author of the SCOR Model. The SCC created the SCOR Model as a way for companies to communicate their supply chain process. It establishes a framework for examining the supply chain, categorizing processes, and assigning metrics.

      ...

      The Air Force has obviously benefited from the work done in the private sector. The current effort underway to shape the SCM process using the SBPM is a result of the SCC's influence. The Air Force fully intends to proceed with the SCOR Model as it maps out the supply chain processes and further defines its metrics. The Air Force should proceed with the use of SCOR through the SBPM process, but should try to accelerate process completion, since history has shown that long, drawn out systems and process solutions rarely succeed. Continued participation in the SCC is also recommended. The SCC offers numerous benefits to the Air Force by providing information on industry best practices, access to leading experts in SCM, and consulting authorities. A study of the companies on the Forbes Magazine's Fortune 1000 list reflected a significant difference in the profitability of companies that are members of the SCC versus those that are not. The bottom line results were nearly two and a half times higher for SCC members than nonmembers.

      Más de 110 empresas se reunieron ayer durante la presentación del Supply-Chain Council (SCC), que tiene como objetivo unir a las compañías y compartir sus experiencias sobre prácticas de negocios, procesos y costos de producción, operación, almacenamiento y logística.

      ...

      En esa fecha, arrancaron también las negociaciones con Supply-Chain Council en Estados Unidos para la formación, con sede en la ciudad de México, del Consejo Latinoamericano de esa organización, y juntando a empresas como DuPont, Novartis, GE-Plastics, Anderson Consulting, Kello1/2s, ITESM, entre otras.

      ...

      Cabe señalar que la Supply-Chain Council es una asociación no lucrativa creada en 1997, por representantes de diversas compañías interesadas en mejorar sus operaciones.

      A nivel mundial está conformado por 493 organizaciones y empresas entre las que se encuentran compañías de manufactura del Fortune 500, así como firmas de consultoría, proveedores de soluciones e instituciones educativas.

      ...

      It should be noted that the Supply-Chain Council is a non-profit association created in 1997, by representatives of various companies interested in improving their operations.

      Globally it is made up of 493 organizations and companies including Fortune 500 manufacturing companies, as well as consulting firms, solution providers and educational institutions.

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Supply-Chain Council to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

    • The sources that are to books published by university presses do not really mention this organization. As for academic journals, I don't see them.

      • Cosmos and History looks very dubious, and it just cites the MTA website to show that religious transhumanists exist. The book sources provide only passing mentions and don't say anything about the organization of the organization. It's possible that there's more substantial documentation elsewhere, but I'm doubtful at the moment. XOR'easter ( talk) 22:32, 8 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Comment Keep: I'm not entirely sure this has the significant coverage by reliable sources that would meet WP:ORG. I do see Interpreter, but that seems a little shaky as a reliable source—might need RSN if it was pressed. [1] Then there's a mention in The Transhumanism Handbook [2], which might be fine for an article but doesn't really contitute extensive coverage. And there's Theology and Science, [3] but that was by the former MTA president so can hardly be considered independent. There are a couple of pages in Theologically Engaged Anthropology [4], which might be something, as might a piece in Logic. [5] Then there's a piece in Ethnos. [6] I'll have to take another look tommorow. -- tronvillain ( talk) 22:58, 8 July 2020 (UTC); edited 14:02, 9 July 2020 (UTC) reply
    Looking further, there's also "The Immortality Upgrade" in The New Yorker [7], a bit in an American Ethnologist interview (Bialecki again, so that doesn't count as an additional source for notability) [8], a piece on The Next Web [9], a piece in The Carolinian [10], and an entry in Trancendence (which while about transhumanism, doesn't seem to actually be part of the walled garden beyond describing it). [11] Then there's "The Intersection of Tech and Church" on OZY. [12] Also, a piece on World Religion News [13] and an offhand mention on Religion News Service. [14] Looking at the whole pile, I think it probably constitutes sufficient coverage—it's coverage of nonsense, but organizations can be about nonsense. The article definitely needs some work though. -- tronvillain ( talk) 14:02, 9 July 2020 (UTC) reply

I would disagree with the WP:CRYSTAL rationale cited by the nominator, as the series has been reported in news sources and was anything but unverifiable speculation. The TOOSOON rationale cited by the two opposes, while true, does not preclude the option of draftification -- Dps04 ( talk) 14:22, 23 July 2020 (UTC) reply

I don't see how this meets WP:GNG or WP:NCORP. Sourcing in the article either isn't independent, isn't significant coverage, is unreliable, or the link doesn't work. With that said, I searched google books, finding this Journal of Commerce that mentions it in passing, a mention in The New Yorker (looks like a routine listing of their event as far as I can tell). On google there are various charity listings and Wikipedia mirrors, none of which establish notability, and this, which barely counts as a book review-- I don't think it even mentions the book. I then checked my universities databases, and found exactly one passing mention. Newspapers.com is a little more promising, with some passing mentions (mainly this AP article), but that's again not enough to establish notability. The article further has a very promotional tone. It's possible (though unlikely) there could be enough coverage based upon how many different sites use the title 'going coastal', and the article has been around since 2005, but I just don't see a pass of NORG or GNG.

Another railroad spot sourced only to Durham and not shown on any topo I have access to. To help confuse matters, there was a Bunnel Ranch which wasn't near here. With the help of this passage from Myrick's book I got a bit better idea of where it might have been, but the emphasis has to be on "might": there is absolutely nothing along this this stretch of the "Bizz" Johnson Trail (which replaced the railroad) except a pair of bridges, a tunnel, an unnamed camp area, and the Devils Corral trailhead, and then you get to Goumaz, where there is another camp area and nothing else. It's possible the first camp area is where Bummel was, but there's nothing at all there except a smallish cleared area hardly big enough for a house. Anyway, besides locating it on the railroad, Myrick says that a sawmill was established there, but a sawmill is not a town and I can remember as a kid going up into the woods a bit south of where we lived and coming upon a sawmill where we got some lumber or sawdust, with no settlement around it at all. Myrick's passage is also instructive in illustrating how dense named points on the railroad are: there is one every few miles, and one should not assume that there was a station building (or even any buildings at all) at each one, much less a town. Myrick's description is sort-of verified by this passage, except that it says that the mill was eight miles away, which on the scale of things is quite a hike. The only other mention of the spot is in this USDA report on possible water projects. And while it does talk about the spot in a way that makes it clear they are talking about the same place, a precise location isn't given, and nothing about the spot is described. And that's all I found, so I don't think this is a notable rail spot. Mangoe ( talk) 15:15, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Respectfully disagree. I offered a variety of sources to show the breadth of coverage. For example, you ignored this feature coverage from the other side of the country in Saskatchewan. And the depth of coverage in this piece (originally from Shunpiking magazine) is impressive. I'm not generally an advocate of high school sports articles, but this tournament has both a breadth of geographic coverage, a depth of coverage, and long duration of coverage over roughly 50 years that I think is sufficient to demonstrate its notability.

  • Keep this is the rare instance where I think the new sources provided in the AfD warrant keeping the article. With the caveat that they should be added to article and used to expand it. Otherwise, I suggest the original nominator just renominates it in 6 months, because I'm not a big fan of people providing sources in AfDs and then them never being used to improve the article. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 19:46, 24 July 2020 (UTC) reply

I cannot begin to fathom how or why this was accepted at AFC, taking a look at the first source leads me to believe dailytimes.pk should be blacklisted for republishing brand/press release material as legitimate journalism (and if it's not, it really leads me to doubt their credibility as journalists given the utter disaster that is that article) and the rest are similarly unreliable.

NN band, fails the GNG and WP:BAND. The article's been notability tagged, and substantively unimproved, for over a decade. Prod removed by an editor who added two sources, one which is explicitly a press release, and the other a brief name drop in a blog post of ephemeral bands, where the entry for this one consists of three sentences, the third one evocatively being "Happiness has sadly disappeared after making their one record like a fart in the Sahara."

  • Delete I think some did not understand my comment about hypotheticals. The point is being the first x to do y does not transform a person to notability, unless of course we have enough coverage of this first x to do y to constitute passing GNG because of this coverage. Unlike some other editors I have never argued that just because the coverage is "this person is the first x to do y" does not mean it does not count. However we have to look at how substantive it is. To bring up one issue, if we have an article on a political candidate that merely says the subject is the "first x to run for y office" but it does not provide sustantive coveage to the person's campaign, and is so short it is not actually substantial covage it is not a sign of notability. On another deletion discussion we are dealing with an 11 year old article that is either a total hoax, or just built on a person's personal website that makes downright false claims. There are so many "first x to do y" claims we need to make sure we follow reliable sources in the matter. One last note, people who lacked notability at the time of their death can and do become notable long after they died. If Wikipedia had existed in the 1940s and someone had tried to create an article on Anne Frank at the time of her death it would have been deleted. Even trying to think of what that would have looked like creates too many counter-factual issues to think through well. The fact that Wikipedia started in 2001 and it is not really to 2004 it starts coming to be sizeable, and then it takes a few years more to start realizing fully that just letting everyone create any article they want has negative consequesnce makes things complex. We used to tolerate articles on every person who ever held a title like Miss Nevada or Miss Nevada USA, although we really only ever got people creating articles on holders of even those titles for a few years, we used to treat any major party nominee for congress in the US as notable, and there are some other examples. In the matter of articles on places and characters in fiction the history of what is considered notable is an even bigger mess, although the number of articles on actors and actresses sourced only to non-reliable sources, many of these articles having stood over 10 years, does show that we have a really big problem with having even a small semblance of anything like following notability guidelines. I know this goes way beyond the article at hand. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 14:30, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete — Fails WP:SOLDIER. Furthermore I trust Praxidicae’s judgement & general knowledge on Wikipedia as Wikipedia is her forte, so if she says that nothing has changed since the last AFD(I can’t view deleted pages thus I can’t really remember) then it probably hasn’t changed & and as such this article qualifies for a CSD G4. I’m not sure why the correctly placed CSD G4 by Amkgp was 'declined' by the Nigerian editor. A quick glance of the article shows at most they possess bare notability & as Johnpacklambert correctly put it, people could become more notable even in death. @ Brain7days I’d suggest you read WP:GNG meticulously before proceeding to create anymore articles & even at that, you still may need to pass the article through the WP:AFC process.

Dream Focus 22:44, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply

The wikipedia community need to understand that all wikipedia guidelines gave room for exceptional cases and one of those cases is our subject of article, but i have come to discern that many editors do not bother about exceptional cases, they do not logically see the value of an article to it targeted audience, they are quick to exterminate harmless articles all in the name of good faith. Editors who voted delete are Indian, British, and American respectively that is why it is easy for them to delineate a first x in country y which is clearly irrational in this case but i do not expect them to understand this because they really do not know and i am here to enlighthen their perception as regards our subject of article. In a country that is tainted of bigotry, nepotism and judicial acrimony, Tolulope Arotile grew up in a society of unambigous discrimination against the girl child, they are been married off at a younger age, barely 2% of the girl population made it to the university, they are being condemned to the kitchen as full housewives and seldomly participate in matters of the nation. She went on to graduate with an Hons in Mathematics, broke a 55 year old jinx to became a combat helicopter pilot, she was a venerate in the eyes of an average Nigerian girl. This young girl was killed in a freak accident that does not resonates with any yoruba intellect, her death is becoming to generate a national controversy as Gani Adams and other social group(paticularly from her tribe) are beginning to discountenanced the explanation to her untimely death (but how do we add these information if the article is being strangled at birth?). This is not to berate every editor who voted otherwise but it is a clarion call on everyone to not be insensitive with every article especially one that has to do with a diversed group and or region as it may fuel ethnic dissension (see George Floyd's talk page)-- Brain7days ( talk) 05:56, 17 July 2020 (UTC). reply

  • Speedy keep: it beats my imagination to see this article nominated for deletion. Does the editor who nominated it for deletion bothered to conduct at least a simple WP:BEFORE nomination? It appears to me that some editors take pride in the number of articles they nominate for deletion without checking to see that an article qualifies deletion. The subject of this article meets WP:GNG and WP:SOLDIER but some have argued here that the subject fails WP Soldier maybe because the subject did not fight in world War. A simple Google search results have shown that the president of Nigeria, the current and immediate past presidents of the Nigerian Senate, a former vice president of Nigeria, the governors of 19 Northern states (Northern Governors Forum) have paid tribute to the subject of this article. All these tributes can be seen in a Google search. Jokolis ( talk) 7:35, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

CNN, Vanguard, Media Trust, P.M. News, Africa News, The Punch and BBC, these are National and international Independent Secondary reliable sources, enough to establish notability. I assure you this, in the whole Nigerian related articles, these are the best press release references you will be seeing, no more than this, there are no any other press release better than those in Nigeria. if those references are not enough to establish notability, tell me what reference do you want to see? Please if you don’t know Nigerian affairs stop scaling its affairs.
    Take a look at the rationale provided by User:Dream Focus, look into it carefully, that is enough to establish notability. currently, Tolulope Arotile is known by every Nigerian, Yes! I mean every Nigerian, because of her duty as a Nigerian soldier, and her story was told and spread everywhere, with more controversy on her death. She is in Nigerian Radio News, Television and Newspapers, a country with the highest population in Africa, imagine! And some users here are still arguing about her notability, I get to understand that you are not following Nigerian news.
    Jokolis you'v got it right, "It appears to me that some editors take pride in the number of articles they nominate for deletion without checking to see that an article qualifies deletion", and I didn’t see a barn star for that! I appreciate their effort in keeping Wikipedia clean, but I criticize their effort in” they nominate for deletion without checking to see that an article qualifies deletion" let them be proud by the number of article they’ve deleted and we will be proud by the number of articles we have saved, I prefer to be a savior, just like the angels.
    Piotrus Either way you are concerned about the copyright status of the picture used, that has nothing to do with her Notability, with or without the picture, and we are not concerned with the status of her picture here, with or without free license the picture carries no weight to establish notability, so take it to commons and nominate the picture for deletion, you are out of the line by making a diversion.

Their death, while tragic, is not a notable event in itself, with all coverage directly relating to her 1E claim to fame. Sorry, but that's not enough to ring the WP:N bell.

  • That's quite mistaken. WP:1E does not apply because the subject is known for at least three things:
  1. Her status as the first female combat helicopter pilot in Nigeria
  2. Her prowess in fighting against Boko Haram
  3. Her recent death at an early age in a freak accident
Even if there was just one event, WP:1E would not imply deletion because it says clearly that "If the event is highly significant, and the individual's role within it is a large one, a separate article is generally appropriate." The subject's role in these occurrences is a large one and so the article is appropriate. Q.E.D.

Hi Brain7days. I have no familiarity with GAMA AIKI so I'm not going to discuss that. But participation in a military operation, even a highly notable one, does not ipso facto confer notability on a person. GNG/BASIC do not lay out any applicable criteria beyond SIGCOV, for which we have a single event. Other possible notability conferring criteria are covered in WP:NSOLDIER. AFAIK the subject of this AfD does not meet any of those criteria. If she does, then that would force me to reconsider my 'Delete.' - Ad Orientem ( talk) 00:30, 20 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Apply WP:IGNORE then. Fighter_pilot#Female_fighter_pilots is a list of related subjects too, Thanks. Brain7days ( talk) 00:54, 20 July 2020 (UTC) reply
IAR is always an available fallback. I've employed it a few times myself where I thought that the subject of an article just fell through the cracks in our notability guidelines but that commonsense would suggest the article be kept. Alas I'm not persuaded in this case. I just don't see a strong argument for the subject's long term significance. Female military pilots are fairly common place today. It may be a novelty in Nigeria but that isn't enough for me. I stand by my 'Delete.' - Ad Orientem ( talk) 02:07, 20 July 2020 (UTC) reply
I am glad you finally acknowledge what the discussion is all about, it is not a big deal to you and everyone else because they are already on that list, and if a country like Nigeria waited 55 years to achieve then such individual deserves decoration not from you though but from me and everyone who identifies with the green white green flag. Thanks to Nnadigoodluck for including her on the list already. On that note what do you think of Madeline Swegle does she deserve a stand alone article, i suggest not going by your perception-- Brain7days ( talk) 05:59, 20 July 2020 (UTC) reply
You are correct. If we are going to start keeping articles about everybody who is the first (fill in your favorite special group) then we need to amend our notability guidelines. I have tagged the page until I have a chance to do some deep digging. But if I don't find anything more I will likely be sending it to AfD. - Ad Orientem ( talk) 16:06, 20 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Being an outstanding helicopter pilot is not an event; it's a status, an occupation, a continuous thing. We have numerous articles about people who are notable for just one occupation – footballers, singers, scientists, &c. Even if we had an event it still wouldn't be an argument for deletion because the point of 1E is that you write an article about the event and so you still have an article. So, AE's case rests on a complete misunderstanding and misrepresentation of WP:1E. Essentially it's WP:IDONTLIKEIT with a veneer of flawed Wikilawyering.

Weak delete Our watchword is notability, she appears to have received a fair amount of notice, but it all seems to be about her death.

  • Keep/Wait as soon as Nigeria awards her some medal posthumously she'll qualify for WP:NSOLDIER and we'll have to do this all over again. Hell, the article might even get posted to TFA.

  • Comment. Although I still maintain the article should be kept due to the coverage, which clearly meets WP:SIGCOV, I think we should steer away from the "outstanding helicopter pilot" claims. She was a junior officer with no decorations. Her notability and coverage is down to her status as Nigeria's first female combat helicopter pilot. Everyone is always claimed to be the greatest whatever after their death; that's just human nature. She was a combat helicopter pilot. She did her job well by all accounts. So do countless other service personnel. Most of them don't have articles. Many people die prematurely in tragic accidents. Most of them don't have articles. Let's just stick to the actual reasons for her notability and not get carried away with the "she was the greatest helicopter pilot ever" rubbish. It doesn't help anyone's cause. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 12:48, 20 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Quite. Having an obituary doesn't mean you're suddenly notable for being dead. It just confirms that you were notable when you were alive. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 12:24, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Not really, deaths are reported all the time, we do not have articles on them. When we do its because there was an impact beyond them being dead. So I ask again can we see some examples of this apparent double standard? Slatersteven ( talk) 12:34, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply
There really is a big difference between a simple two-line report of a death and an obituary. Brief coverage of death doesn't equal notability, but wide publication of obituaries certainly does. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 12:42, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply
A claim has been made back it up. "No one would question the notability of someone whose death would have been similarly covered by the media in any Western country" so give an example of this. Slatersteven ( talk) 12:45, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply
She had already achieved some kind of notability before her death (there are media articles about her in 2019, where she is mentioned as the "first female combatant helicopter pilot in the history of the Service"), and the huge coverage of her life and death on the occasion of her death confirms this notability. She's not famous because of her death, but because she is the first female combatant in the history of the Nigerian airforce *and* died a tragic death, in the context of a war against terrorist groups, during which she saw action - which makes her kind of a national hero right now in Nigeria, as the media coverage shows very clearly. Not sure about what is hard to understand here.
Regarding the double standard, look for yourself: Category:Helicopter pilots. -- DonCamillo ( talk) 12:52, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Why are you saying that this lacks "experience" or "evidence"? I'm just stating basic facts: she's famous in Nigeria, she's a "first", her obits were on the frontpage of Nigerian media for days, this has been of the main topics of discussion all over Nigeria since her death (this is not opinion but fact with reliable sources). For many people here, these facts mean this article should not be deleted, can't you at least respect that? It is also a fact that there is a double standard and a bias against topics related to the global South (I'm not saying everyone here is biased or no one has the right to say this article should be deleted: I'm saying this double standard and this bias are a real thing). It's obvious for anyone who has experience on any of the large Wikipedias. No one would dare to challenge the notability of someone whose obit was on the frontpage of the New York Times (I've checked all the obits showing on the dedicated page of the NYT right now: 7 articles - without any AfD -, 1 without an article yet; is that enough for you?). For some reason if the obit is on the front page of the Daily Trust (one of the major newspapers in Nigeria) and basically one of the biggest news for days in a 200-million people country, it's fine to challenge. I think that's wrong and that's not the way we should go if we want to improve the way global South-related topics are treated on Wikimedia projects. -- DonCamillo ( talk) 15:49, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply
I did not say you lacked experience. So out of 7 obits one does not even have an article, so your bias is that we do not even waste our time on such people if they are "from the north". As to the rest who are they? Slatersteven ( talk) 16:01, 22 July 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Strong keep, this is ridiculous and in bad faith. Nominator thinks the subject is Serbian for crying out loud, just throwing around noms with no basis. Subject of the article has 3 albums with articles all of which have charted on the US, and elsewhere, so unambiguously passes the criteria at WP:MUSICBIO. This notice should be taken down and the bad faith nominator should be censured.

How is it not bad faith? Your nomination claimed an African-American from Brooklyn was a Serbian, so you obviously didn't look at the article once. Ergo you were either: nominating articles for no rational reason, not doing the modicum of research to click the actual wikilink to the nominee, or you were intentionally lying. Anyone of those (and I see no other options) is a bad faith nomination. You and the IP (as?) didn't even consult the guide to notability before beginning this process or seemingly even check Afu-Ra's already existent page for its clearly marked Billboard chart rankings. It's a waste of everyone's time to nominate articles that will obviously pass just because you have a pet peeve or something. Improve the pages if you can, but we don't delete just for lack of sourcing, we add the sourcing. JesseRafe ( talk) 12:34, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply
I see WP:AFG is tossed right out the window with your comment. As I said to you here, I have NO relation to the IP. You responded to that comment with "Get lost." As per WP:AFDHOW, an IP nomination is typically taken upon by a registered user like myself. But as this is an IP nomination, I have no opinion regarding the notability of this subject. I am just a proxy. I had a very rough look at Google News and found hits that were akin to press releases surrounding album releases so that alone would not pass WP:GNG, I believe. I did not do a thorough search of this subject as I'm not the one doing the nomination, so the onus lies on the IP nominator to do the WP:BEFORE. Also you removed the AFD tag, a big no no on Wikipedia. And you indirectly accused that I am socking as the IP with your summary "ridiculous and in bad faith, he's had a half dozen albums and appearances, improve the article, don't use IPs and alt-accounts to delete things, or is it a magical coincidence after all these years "two" accts want to delete this article?" -- Tyw7 ( 🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then ( ping me) 13:36, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply
This is my last response here, but the onus is on you to demonstrate a reason for the nomination because blame the IP all you want, but you nominated the articles. I used my good faith the first time IP db-ed it, but my edit summary didn't go into the details because I thought the case "clear" enough, but you didn't even click on the article let alone look at the edit history. When an IP and then a reg user nominate the same page which had never been nominated in 14 years within 2 days, under 2 methods, it's not a breach of AFG to assume a connection, especially as the original nomming IP was not the same IP that posted in AFDHOW so following contribs wouldn't show that request. If what you're saying is that you perform zero due diligence and just parrot whatever any fly-by IP asks you to do -- that's a serious problem if you don't see that as a problem. How is that, in effect, different from being a meatpuppet? You just nominate articles under flimsy pretenses, without even clicking on them? And then wash your hands of it? It's fine to field IP's requests, but you should obviously filter them first. Just clicking the link would show you that he's not Serbian and has had multiple albums chart on Billboard, which should have shown you that IP's request was spurious and you should have decided there was no need to waste everyone's time... And I asked you to get lost because you were spamming my talk page, two new sections in 5 minutes? Please. I stand by that comment. JesseRafe ( talk) 17:13, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply
I had a rough check of Google news and the first page news were akin to news articles about his video releases. An example is https://earmilk.com/2020/03/09/afu-ra-connects-with-jah-mason-rocca-for-the-cinematic-molecular-video/. Looks more like an article about his music video. https://respect-mag.com/2020/01/peepthevisual-afu-ra-reign-on-me-feat-mann/ also look akin to a press release so as http://www.reggae.fr/lire-news/17151_202002_Afu-Ra--Urban-Chemistry--l-album.html.

It was, for this reason, I thought that IP request had some substance.

The fact that he did not receive much media coverage prior his death does not belittle the contributions of his life; it shows the foolishness of the media to overlook the potential of this young visionary. Saleh was the mind behind PrankDial, a famous app that earned him over $10 Million. He also founded Pathao, a successful transportation business in Bangladesh, whose model he sought to replicate in Lagos, Nigeria with his new business Gokada. You itch to delete his page. I wonder why. I think I know: you are an Agent. Of whom, I do not know. But you are an agent -- an agent of destruction and assault. Fahim Saleh was already killed.

  • Keep - Notable entrepreneur who founded Gokada in Nigeria. A google search of him shows significant coverage of him, prior to his death. He generally meets GNG as he has "Made a widely recognized contribution that is part of an enduring historical record in a specific field". Gokada was the first tech-savvy Motor bike, ride-sharing service in Nigeria and that is significant. His work with Pathao is also very significant. There is need to improve the article, however as it relies heavily on articles related to his death and so to the untrained eye, it would appear that he is only famous for his death. That is not the case. Orowalemuyola ( talk) 08:00, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - There are a number of reliable sources that prove his notability prior to his death, which have now been added to the article. There are at least [11], [12], [13], and [14].

  • Keep - The deceased satisfies the converse of criteria 2 stated in the original post of this discussion - The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in a specific field. In this case, the field the deceased significantly contributed to was in the tech sector. A notable independent contribution comes from a financially successful but controversial web application called PrankDial, other significant contributions are cofounding transport/ridesharing service companies called Gokada and Pathao. The independent contribution has endured in history to be widely used, while the latter two contributions can be argued to be significant in history despite the deceased not having independently created these two ventures. All this on top of the coverage in his death warrants a separate article. References to these contributions from reliable sources exist and have already been highlighted in this discussion chain.

  • Keep I'll keep my input short and simple. Fahim has had a significant enough impact on the world especially considering what he has done in the developing world.

    • Different language Wikipedias don't follow the decisions of other ones for a number of reasons, including different rules and different availability of sources in varying languages. That doesn't mean that we shouldn't do the same as Bangla Wikipedia, just that we shouldn't be persuaded just by that. My understanding is that ANYBIO is relevant for historical figures, which is not relevant for Fahim. In addition, on the page of WP:ANYBIO, it says "Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included". Also on the page, it says "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." There has been significant coverage of Fahim in many sources (just look at the references on the current page), and those sources certainly meet the requirements (the articles from the New York Times, the BBC, and HuffPost, for example).

On its own, Tether Studios appears not to be notable outside of Skillz; not even Pocket Gamer has any coverage of them, and I couldn't find anything in a WP:BEFORE other than being highly rated on Skillz.

Doesn't appear to be a notable musician, lacks significant in depth coverage. Possibly too soon but the sources just aren't there yet. As an example, the first two sources are identical to one another which makes me wonder about the veracity of the publisher and come from this site to begin with.

If you've been following these discussions of Lassen County places, you'll recognize that "located on the Southern Pacific" is not a good sign, and indeed, this is yet another ex- Nevada-California-Oregon Railway siding/station, in this case with the slight bonus of a turning wye. It rails are gone, of course, and what's left is some ballast and a lot of empty land. I cannot find any mention of the place other than an extremely passing reference in Gudde and the usual railroad regulatory material. But no mention of anything that would suggest a town, which isn't surprising: the line was abandoned after the SP/UP merger precisely because building a narrow gauge line through the region attracted almost no settlers.

  • Weak keep. I'm making an WP:NAUTHOR argument. His book The Indian University has been reviewed [17] (also in brief [18]). I was unable to find reviews for his Uncomfortable Learning book. However, the idea (or some version of it) has gotten a fair bit of press coverage, enough that the fund established in his honor disassociated themselves with some of it [19]. The book is on the recommended reading list for the Peace Corp [20]. It's harder to find online materials on someone who died in 1974, so I'm grading a little bit on a curve here.

Another spot-on-the-rails "town"" sourced only to Durham's placenames book. I was able to at least verify the existence of a station from a closure request in the early 1940s, but nothing else.

Fails general notability guidelines. K9 Pro Sports was a fly-by-night spin-off of a Schutzhund-like dog sport that lasted only a few years before morphing/merging into another spin-off protection sport group of a different name, morphed again, and therefore got renamed multiple times. K9 Pro Sports has been defunct for so long that you can no longer find online any citations to cover what it "was" under the name K9 Pro Sports. My searches for WP:BEFORE turned up nothing. One other editor's WP:BEFORE turned up two (subscription-required) articles from the Caldwell Burleson Star newspaper archives; the paper has been out of business for 15 years, and covered a small town of just 4,000 residents. Not exactly "broad coverage" and definitely not "significant coverage that addresses the topic directly and in detail". Passes neither WP:GNG nor Wikipedia:Notability (sports).

  • Delete - seems like there are a few remote print sources, but these are either in niche magazines or local papers. In my view it does not pass GNG. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 15:07, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep once notable always notable WP:NTEMP. We have RS, local RS is still RS and stating that the newspaper is out of business for fifteen years does not diminish the validity of the source. And "broad coverage" is not a requirement of WP:RS. I will continue to search for sources to show notability. I removed the prod and began working on the article, the AfD was placed immediately. WP:NORUSH Lightburst ( talk) 15:45, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply
    • Comment: I will address your comments, and add a few more points:
  1. "Broad coverage" was my paraphrase for WP:GNG's "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, and "Independent of the subject" excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it. For example, advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent.
  2. @ Lightburst: if you have access to those subscription-required newspaper archives, then please add a quote parameter within the citation so the average reader can see what the article says. I posit that those articles merely announce a competition, and probably do not cover the subject of "K9 Pro Sports" in any detail (unless it is a press release).
  3. WP:NORUSH doesn't apply here. The article has been sitting around, non-sourced and full of WP:OR for 9 years. I could have simply removed non-sourced content. In fact, I still might. It is important to remove it because scrapers take Wikipedia content and repeat it all over the internet (making it even harder later to determine whether the source is reliable, or a wiki editor's WP:OR, or someone else's words copied by a wiki editor for this article).
  4. As for the two original citations with no links: both are non- RS. Both "Dog and Kennel" and "Dog Sport Magazine" appear to have been minor mags from a non-notable publisher. They are mentioned here as Dog & Kennel is the magazine for dog lovers and enthusiasts! Training, health care, feeding, grooming, bonding, events and the enjoyment of owning dogs. and Dog Sport: A glossy magazine with "how-to" stories giving agility, rally-o, obedience, and flyball enthusiasts practical ideas on how to improve the quality of their training and competing. The first has no web content, the second's website seems unavailable. An advanced google search (which uses cached pages), such as "k9 pro sports" site:dogsportmagazine.com, returns zero results.
  5. So that leaves the article with ZERO sources for verification.
  6. Yesterday, I found a Facebook page with the name "K9 Pro Sports", checked out the attached website, and watched a few of their videos. It looks like a one- or two-man business that is basically a commercial operation starting a new dog breed (low-shedding German Shepherds), selling puppies, offering stud service, training dogs, and have created this "sport" as an adjunct to their business. It is perhaps a niche activity that others participate in, but to say it is notable is stretching matters. My understanding is that there was a small flush of interest in the beginning, but when top-level dogs (including Doberman "Kaz" Arkan Kazimir Von Rubenhof) were being crippled by "brick wall decoys", there was a mass exodus by the participants and dog owners on the basis that it was as an unsafe, fringe sport.
Normal Op ( talk) 17:03, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply
Your interpretation of the RS in #1 number 1 is not correct. Your point #5 is also incorrect: it is unfortunate that you cannot read the newspapers but that does not make them irrelevant. Regarding number 2 WP:NORUSH: I cited that in response to the immediate AfD after I removed the prod and began to improve the article. Your numbers 4 and 6 just cover your opinions and WP:BEFORE work you have done. If the article is deleted, will the readers of the encyclopedia be served? I believe WP:NTEMP.

  • Delete WP:COATRACK The article lacks any serious or academic sources, and there is no evidence I can find that there is any actual "theory". It's just an excuse for random fringe speculation. Schazjmd  (talk) 00:59, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete " That X-Files spinoff predicted 9/11!" is the sort of take that bubbles up on listicles now and then. It's possible that a decent encyclopedia article on such things could exist, if historians of pop culture did the groundwork of documenting them first, but this article ain't it.

SNGs are a shorthand as to what level of achievement should generate WP:GNG coverage. They are not a blanket pass. He coached at a college that competes in a state level conference. I doubt this is what was intended when college head coaches were guven a pass in NCOLLATH. Fails GNG, radically. John from Idegon ( talk) 00:48, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete - per nom. This is a high school basketball coach with three years at a division three school. Just no way this meets any of WP's notability standards. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Steve Ernst - this article was recreated despite prior deletion. He has only become less notable since then, as he is no longer even a college coach. ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia talk 15:11, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Meets GNG per [30] [31] [32] [33] [34]. ~ EDDY ( talk/ contribs)~ 16:26, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete The coverage given above is only in papers local to where he was. He does not even merit coverage in the Detroit News. Being a Division 3 basketball coach is not default sign of notability, yet we will get at least as much coverage for every division 3 coach. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 17:39, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply
    • Then that is an argument for more articles on D3 coaches that receive this level of coverage. It is not routine, and they are regionally important papers. Plus not every D3 coach has a player who goes pro. ~ EDDY ( talk/ contribs)~ 01:10, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete the sources included and available suggests they're WP:ROUTINE and the article subject is unable to satisfy WP:ANYBIO. Graywalls ( talk) 21:52, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply

Does not seem to pass WP:GNG, ongoing talk page discussion seems to conclude that this company's existence might be notable enough to be discussed elsewhere, such as on Disney Parks, Experiences and Products, but there's simply not enough information to justify having a full article about it.

  • Delete: There's already an article addressing the larger segment of the company at Disney Parks, Experiences and Products. There are also individual articles on each of the two parks in the US, Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World. Both those articles mention the Disney Parks, Experiences and Products division in the lead. It seems unnecessary and potentially confusing to have a separate article for this intermediate entity in the company's organizational structure. There don't seem to be any good arguments on the talk page for why this division of the company meets WP:GNG on its own. —  Tartan357  ( Talk) 04:44, 16 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: Does not have much information about this unit at the article, which speculative. I cannot find any news articles on the company. Spshu ( talk) 17:50, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Keep: This is a massive business and there is extensive documentation about it at places like Dun & Bradstreet. Of course, it is part of the Walt Disney conglomerate but that's huge and has a complex structure covering a variety of businesses. The worst case would be some sort of merge/split restructuring but there's no case for deletion at all. See WP:ATD. Andrew🐉( talk) 22:17, 17 July 2020 (UTC) reply

  • Delete: I can't find any real independent sources (all I could find is business registries and building permits.) This subsidiary is part of Disney Parks, Experiences and Products - merging into that article might be a good idea. Many or even most large companies have operational subsidiaries that do not have their own Wikipedia articles. 2600:4040:5006:F700:C9FB:2BFD:D658:BF14 ( talk) 07:19, 19 July 2020 (UTC) reply
  • Delete: There is nothing to indicate why this subsidiary of Disney Parks, Experiences and Products is in any way independently notable enough to need a spinout article. I was going to suggest a Redirect, but Walt Disney Parks and Resorts already is one, and tacking on the U.S. at the end probably isn't going to be particularly helpful for a search. Still, Redirects are cheap, so I would not be particularly upset if someone wanted to make this into one. Rorshacma ( talk) 23:33, 19 July 2020 (UTC) reply
