BLP of a singer who is described as legendary and has had a long career. However she does not appear to pass WP:MUSICBIO and the sources I can see either don’t look reliable, or don’t look independent, or don’t look in-depth. Some seem to be recycled PR.

    • TheAafi Are you sure you searched well? Akua Serwaa Bonsu is a well-known Ghanaian musician. This shouldn't be a debate. Mellowdeaous ( talk) 15:12, 5 June 2021 (UTC) reply
      • Mellowdeaous, right now, it's not a debate because there are no arguments for keeping the article. Just saying "he's well-known" is not an argument: you need proof. Drmies ( talk) 15:14, 5 June 2021 (UTC) reply

          • Mellowdeaous, I cleaned up your comments: please indent properly. All that suggests, by the way, that you are not yet a very experienced editor. And the websites you listed, there is no good indication that they are actually reliable independent sources per WP:RS. Drmies ( talk) 15:25, 5 June 2021 (UTC) reply
            • Drmies If Akua Serwaa Bonsu should not be on wikipedia then I guess many of the musicians here do not deserve to be too. Just because an artist does not have many articles about her on the internet does not mean she is not notable. Akua Serwaa is a well known Ghanaian gospel musician and many Ghanaians know her. I listed five reliable sources yet you are saying they are not reliable just because you don't know them. Mellowdeaous ( talk) 15:37, 5 June 2021 (UTC) reply
              • Mellowdeaous, see WP:TALKREPLY: if you want to play here, you will have to follow the rules. Part of the rules is what constitutes a reliable source. You didn't list five reliable sources--you threw out two URLs and something that appears to be the name of a website. They're in the article? This is on GhanaSlayers.com, an article written by "GhanaSlayers", full of praise and punctuation errors: not a good sign. Now, turning this on me is not going to help you, and comparing to other (even worse?) articles is not going to help your case either. If anyone is going to be notable, it will be because of what reliable sources say, not because some unknown person says "many Ghanaians know her". Drmies ( talk) 15:47, 5 June 2021 (UTC) reply
                • Drmies I'm sorry if I'm being harsh and rude but I thought the sources listed here prove she is a notable musicians Mellowdeaous ( talk) 16:04, 5 June 2021 (UTC) reply
                  • Hmm I don't know if you were being harsh and rude, but if someone asks you two or three times to INDENT PROPERLY, and a couple of times removes unnecessary material (like the link to my talk page) from your posts, and you don't do what they have asked you to do politely, what is the word for that?

@ Chiro725, great question and thanks for asking, the first source is the only reliable source. The second has no byline, indicative of a sponsored post or guest editor, making it an unreliable source. The third and fourth are moderghana.com which is more of a blog than an actual reliable source. Celestina007 ( talk) 22:08, 4 June 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Delete The awards are utterly trivial, and includign them makes the promotional aspect evident. With respect to the references mentioned, the first contains sentences like "The President and founder, Gloria C. Chibuike is a passionate Philanthropist, who has engaged several charity projects and programs to improve humanity, through consultancy, medical aids, treatment and awareness programs. ", so I do not see how it can be objective coverage or a RS for anything; the second is a celebration of the 3 awards " has been honoured with three distinguished and notable awards for her versatile roles in several sectors in Nigeria and for Nigerians in diaspora. " The 3rd and 4 are essentially advertisements for her work. The newspapers may be reliable in other respects, but not here; there is no source that is wholly reliable in everything, and in particular no newspaper I have seen that does not at least sometimes resort to publishing promotional content. To judge whether something is a RS, you have to actually read it. DGG ( talk ) 22:53, 4 June 2021 (UTC) reply

Bowmansville, Missouri

Bowmansville, Missouri (  | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View AfD)
(Find sources:  Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I attempted to expand this one, and came to a somewhat surprising conclusion: This appears to have been a business venture, not a town.

First, Ramsay refers to this as Mr. Bowman's store. Searching for coverage in old newspapers results brings up a statement that in 1916 they wouldn't put Bowmansville on the map, so Mr. Bowman complained and that it had a store, a blacksmith/wagon shop, and one residence at the time. An advertisement put out later in a local paper by Mr. Bowman indicates that he ran both the store and the blacksmith shop, as well as a mill. I also found a passing mention in a county business report that there was a single merchant at Bowmansville.

Does not appear in 1881 county history. 1918 County history has three mentions of Bowmansville - that Mr. Bowman and his sons conducted the business there, that Bowmansville consisted of Mr. Bowman's store, shop and residence, and a passing mention to Bowmansville being Mr. Bowman's store and shop when discussing the location of a nearby farm. The only person I could find ever referenced to being from Bowmansville is Mr. Bowman.

All indications is that the only thing that was ever at Bowmansville was Mr. Bowman's business enterprises and his house. While Mr. Bowman seems to have tried to pass this place off as a town, it clearly was not. This doesn't pass WP:GEOLAND since it was never populated by anyone other than the Bowmans, and I don't think there's enough coverage here to meet WP:GNG, especially since some of it appears to be affiliated with Mr. Bowman.

  • Keep as it is an historical location and shows up on USGS topographic maps. Don't think Wikipedia is running out of room. Vsmith ( talk) 19:44, 4 June 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Weak delete, I guess. USGS topography only shows Bowmanville on select maps starting with Cornelia's in 1955. Google Maps shows Bowmansville is on a side road off Route 13 called S Division, and consists of a preschool, two churches, and less than a dozen houses (no sign of a store, blacksmith, or mill). Clearly, people still live here, but all addresses are for Warrensburg up the road.
However, a Google search found a page about Bowmansville that's rather detailed and has lots of photographic evidence of the place's existence, including a photo dated 1968 (note Bowmansville was first on a map in 1955; Mr. Bowman got his wish after all) and mentions of more residents than just the Bowmans; apparently, the area was settled in the 1880s by a German Baptist congregation, including a deacon named John Bowman. Unfortunately, the page I'm talking about is a blog, meaning we can't use it (though it's apparently connected to the county's historical society).
Bowmansville existed, but it looks like while it got on a map, it was never large enough to be considered a settlement, and I guess most of the original congregation moved out by 1916. It's very interesting, though (yes, I know "it's interesting" isn't a valid reason to keep something); I'd absolutely love to keep this, but there aren't enough sources about it. Maybe some of this information could be moved to Warrensburg, Missouri? Not sure. AdoTang ( talk) 19:53, 4 June 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Keep: The History of Johnson County calls it a "little town." I must admit I also find Hog Farm's finds to be delightful. I love that Mr. Bowman complained to the papers that they wouldn't put Bowmansville on the map, and eventually it made it to USGS maps. But for Mr. Bowman's singular obsession, there wouldn't be a case for this article.-- Milowent • has spoken 20:17, 8 June 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect announcing a Senate run isn't really an "event" that would qualify you for a page if you weren't otherwise notable. A delete and redirect is proper here. SportingFlyer T· C 15:16, 21 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Just to counter some of the arguments that have been made since I posted, candidates for senate office do not automatically become notable for a Wikipedia page. Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of the articles on the site, and time and time again we've found that people who run for office do not meet that standard. While he was involved in a previous event, a promotional senate campaign doesn't mean he's notable enough for an article - of course, that argument is moot if he wins. SportingFlyer T· C 12:06, 24 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • The thing is, I would argue there is an enduring coverage about this guy, particularly thanks to his biography prior to announcing his candidacy (the gun controversy and all that). I mean, I had just learnt about the guy from John Oliver, because he was given an entire segment on his show. -- 212.74.201.233 ( talk) 12:09, 24 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Right, and the community made a conscious decision to redirect this title to the event instead of having a stand-alone page. The campaign isn't in itself notable. SportingFlyer T· C 12:14, 24 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • You are wrong though. The community didn't make this decision, some guy did when creating the redirect. And now we are as a community discussing whether this page should exist or not. Moreover, this redirect was created in August, before he started his campaign, when he was only notable for the gun controversy, so your argument is entirely null and void. -- 212.74.201.233 ( talk) 13:45, 24 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Eh, not really. Nobody tried to make the article before it was redirected, and now it's only being created to support a candidacy which is, for now, not notable. Again, our long standing policy is that non-notable people cannot become notable just by filing to run for office. There really hasn't been any argument made to the contrary.

The event already has its own article, and being a candidate for office does not in and of itself meet Wikipedia's notability guideline. Banana Republic ( talk) 13:14, 24 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to St. Louis gun-toting controversy. So far, this is WP:BLP1E and WP:PROMO, Wikipedia is not meant to be a placeholder for aspiring politicians, or advertising for anyone's private business clientele. Note that this article begins by telling us, "Mark McCloskey is an American personal injury lawyer ... ". There is no indication either McCloskey or his wife accomplished anything notable. Pointing a gun at anyone in America is not an anomaly, and certainly not a qualification for WP notability. One of the known motivations for someone to announce their candidacy, is for the name recognition that will increase traffic to their private enterprise. At this point, it serves only as a promotional blurb. Nothing else. — Maile ( talk) 19:45, 22 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Note: Although I prefer deletion, I would also go along with a Redirect. This individual is known for gun headlines, which is not an anomaly in the United States. If he becomes (or is) an official candidate, it only means he paid $200 filing fee, and showed up in person to register. Missouri candidate filing requirements.

Being a candidate for office does not meet Wikipedia's criteria for notability. See WP:NPOL. Banana Republic ( talk) 13:12, 24 May 2021 (UTC) reply
Well, that's where we disagree. I think him being notable for both running for office (and apparently being presented as a likely candidate to succeed in the nomination), and the gun controversy in my opinion makes him notable for the standalone article. I've skimmed the rule you linked and I think he fits this rule, in spirit if not in fact. 212.74.201.233 ( talk) 13:44, 24 May 2021 (UTC) reply
Running for the US Senate from Missouri means only that he has to pay a $200 filing fee, and show up in person to register. Missouri candidate filing requirements. — Maile ( talk) 18:02, 24 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. By its own terms, WP:BLP1E only applies if the "person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual." I truly do not see how that could possibly be true of McCloskey: he spoke at the RNC, appears on television, and is now running for the Senate. As this essay cogently explains, BLP1E is an exception that should be interpreted narrowly, lest it swallow up the rule. Since BLP1E is inapplicable, we're left with the GNG, which McCloskey quite indisputably passes in spades, e.g. 1 2 3 4, all of which are well-regarded national or international outlets. NPOL is also no obstacle, since it explicitly notes that candidates "can still be notable if they meet the general notability guideline." In sum, notwithstanding the political overtones of such an article, I don't find this a difficult case, Like McCloskey or not, a fair interpretation of policy requires me to conclude that he's notable.

  • Redirect. Ok, so I went to 2022 United States Senate election in Missouri and it says that he is a potential candidate, not that he is a candidate. His notability will arrive in 2022, not now. (CC) Tbhotch ™ 18:56, 26 May 2021 (UTC) reply
I don't think that's right. He has declared his candidacy now, but the race isn't until 2022, when he could feasibly receive the Republican nomination. I believe that's the point you were making, but it's not correct to say he isn't currently a candidate. I agree that being a candidate itself isn't enough to pass NPOL.

  • Keep per WP:SIGCOV. First off, this is a historic figure so there is no WP:BLP concern. It's difficult to access the sources in Google Books and for the Caribbean there is no abundance of historical websites as for Europe and Northern America. The amount of name combinations that apply to this community president only makes things more complex. Nevertheless, the following website can give some guidance. [5] When opening the detailed index of Precious Stones it is easy to see that most biographies are 1-2 pages while the true pillars of Judaism in Curacao, among whom Jahacob Hisquia Curiel, typically have 4-6 pages. For Jahacob this is a biography of 5 pages with 4 subchapters. gidonb ( talk) 23:44, 7 June 2021 (UTC) reply

A scientific organization that does not appear to meet the WP:GNG. Of the four sources included in the article, two are primary sources (both of which are now dead links, leading me to suspect this group no longer exists), and two are not about the organization at all, merely on the concept of tissue banking as a whole. I searched for sources, both under the group's full name and the acronym, and while a few results come up listing them in directories or having been at a conference, I am finding no actual in-depth coverage of the group at all.

Seems to have enough scholarly coverage to pass GNG. Qwaiiplayer ( talk) 19:28, 28 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Weak Delete/Merge to schistosomiasis There's definitely some coverage among academic reliable sources of an antisemitic "male menstruation" myth 1 2 3 4. But, the current topic of the article doesn't really appear to be about that (it contains one sentence, under a section titled "In intersex or trans men", and the page currently reads like a pseudo-disambiguation page. The page contains one source regarding the use of the term "male menstruation" to refer to schistosomiasis, though the content probably would be better included in the disease's article, as the two aren't substantially different topics. The current state of the page is WP:TNT-worthy; there is currently little content dedicated to the focus that appears to have the largest academic use (and no sources are applied in that direction), and even then I'm not sure that "Male Menstruation" would be the proper title (as opposed to "Male Menstruation Myth"). — Mikehawk10 ( talk) 19:39, 28 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Keep As noted, the antisemitic myth angle is well covered in the literature (but not yet anywhere on Wikipedia, as far as I can see). It looks like this article needs a perspective flip: replace the excessive schistosomiasis material with a one-paragraph summary and a {{ main}} link to schistosomiasis, then expand the other facet with the existing material. -- Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 21:23, 31 May 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. The article needs to be heavily re-worked, but there is enough coverage of this concept to warrant keeping a standalone article. As noted above, there are plenty of academic sources about the myth of male menstruation in ancient Judaism. I found an additional article about the concept of male menstruation in the work of Sigmund Freud. [1] I also found an article about "male rituals of pseudo-procreation" among Aboriginal Australians that entail "the men 'menstruating' by making their noses bleed, cutting their arms, subincising their penises, inducing diarrhoea (as a substitute for menstrual blood) or in other ways". [2] This seems to be a specific case study about the general anthropological concept of male menstruation that is described in two of the sources found by Qwaiiplayer ( [6] [7]). Although it would be quite difficult to write an encyclopedic article that cohesively ties all of these angles together, that alone is not a reason to delete. – Lord Bolingbroke ( talk) 07:39, 5 June 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Well, clearly a scholar g-search yields results, but I think this article is leaning towards Original Research. Since the term "male mensturation" might refer to various things, joining them together in an article would constitude OR. Maybe, we could merge various parts of the article to various other articles and turn this page into a DAP. Cinadon 36 09:21, 8 June 2021 (UTC) reply

One of those dreadful articles which have at first glance numerous decent sources, but which turn out to be all paid for or user-generated ones. Nothing about the actual company (like, I don't know, some customers, campaigns, ...), only hollow words.

An example of the typical methods by which these sources are created and these articles produced: the 6th source is an "interview" with CIOLookIndia from January 2021 [8] which strangely uses the exact same wording as the first source, an "article" in the Mirror Review from December 2020 [9], e.g. the whole "Being in the persuasion business" paragraph, followed by the exact same complete "Consequently, as the clients" paragraph.

  • Redirect to Discredited HIV/AIDS origins theories, or delete. Redirects are cheap, and the WP:FRINGE stuff seems to have gotten some limited attention for a period of time as a fringe/conspiracy theory; he's covered somewhat prominently in this [11] overview on JSTOR of such theories.

This is a 2006-era disambig for two books (or series of), neither of which has its own article (which I think means this is not a valid disambig anwyay). So if it is not a disambig, could this be an article? Well, right now notability of the disambguated concept is unclear and unlikely (it fails WP:GNG and WP:NBOOK), and there are no references. Unless someone figures out how to rescue this, the best solution I can see is to redirect this to Official_Handbook_of_the_Marvel_Universe#Marvel_Encyclopedia_(Marvel).

I can't access the book beyond the preview, and even with these sources the case is admittedly marginal, but they give me enough pause to dissuade me from jumping unreservedly on the delete bandwagon.

Another GNIS entry from the Iowa Geological Survey unrecorded on topos or aerials, the spot being a short ways south into a field on an empty stretch of road.

Here we reach something of a nadir of sourcing, in that this, like a number of other Iowa GNIS-sourced entries, comes from a 1906 Iowa Geologic Survey map which also appears to be the only source for a number of other places. The topos and all aerials show absolutely nothing at this spot; it's not even a crossroads or the location of a house. There are some hits for a Linwood quarrying operation, but it appears to be elsewhere, as the quarry was on a rail line, and there are no rails near here.

I can find little sign that there was an actual community here, only a post office, which is worth noting, IMO, in the Summit Township article. Linwood appears on Rand McNally's 1903 map of Iowa, but it didn't even receive a circle indicating the exact location. I can find no other evidence that a community was located here.

This is an WP:INDISCRIMINATE collection of media appearances of the topic. It does not adhere to the standards of MOS:POPCULT, summary style discussion on the topic's importance in popular culture using examples from reliable sources. I do not think it is possible to improve the topic to the standards of a stand alone article. While Ghoul would have no issue handling the content in the article, I think merging is a poor idea because the current information is mostly unsourced and original research.

  • Talk:Ghoul#Should we just create Ghouls in popular culture? tells us that this was the usual sweeping of unwanted content under the rug. Yet again. ( User:Uncle G/Cargo cult encyclopaedia article writing)

    The sad thing here in this particular case is that this was not bad content. Tolkien can be sourced to ISBN  9781476614861 page 103 and a bunch more (it being Tolkien). Lovecraft's ghoul on the television (no less!) can be sourced to the "Lovecraft on television" chapter of ISBN  9781476604008. The entry for "ghoul" in ISBN  9781317044260 has Lord Byron, William Beckford's Vathek, Lovecraft, The Ghoul, and more. ISBN  9780195146561, an encyclopaedia of children's literature, gives an indication of having more in its entry for "ghoul". The entry for "ghoul" in ISBN  9781440803895 has Harry Potter, Larry Niven's Ringworld, Lovecraft, two Edgar Allen Poe poems, and others.

    Much of this is in the edit history of the original article at Special:Permalink/329641402#Fictional representations. This really shouldn't have been swept under the rug in the first place. It should have been fixed, and ghoul should have discussed the imported idea, as other encyclopaedias in fact do.

  • Keep. AFD is not cleanup and the issue presented is an editorial one. Note that no argument based on WP:GNG or WP:NLIST was presented as part of the nomination rationale. Not complying with MOS guidelines is not a ground for deletion and in no way are the issues presented insurmountable to justify deletion. Per WP:ATD, if the nominator is concerned about the article's content quality but could not be bothered to research from reliable sources and write content for it, I suggest that the nomination be withdrawn or closed as keep, that the article be tagged for cleanup, and leave it for other editors who may be interested but are unaware that there is a content quality issue.

  • Delete. Fails WP:OR easily, TheCartoonEditor | (talk) | (contribs) 04:56, 22 May 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Keep or merge. I agree with Haleth's arguments. And there are primary sources mentioned in the text for almost everything, so WP:OR is rather unlikely to apply. And Uncle G has already found secondary sources for it. I have also added a secondary source for the D&D part. So that argument carries little weight. As for the current content having little value, the same applies: The content is not bad, it is only missing (explicit) referencing! And sources have been shown to exist. So the current content can be improved, and therefore WP:TNT by definition does not apply. Then for the topic being indiscriminate: The topic does not strike me as overly broad, and Wikipedia:"In popular culture" content describes how do decide what to include and what not, which is also supported by MOS:POPCULT: Providing secondary (and tertiary) sources. And a WP:BEFORE search provides many secondary sources where this topic appears.
That all said, I am undecided whether the topic is better presented as a separate article or as a section within the Ghoul article. Daranios ( talk) 20:09, 22 May 2021 (UTC) reply

@ Zxcvbnm: But there are important examples of the ghoul in popular culture in the current form. So why should there be nothing salvagable?

Nothing was salvageable before you added that sentence. Still, a single sentence being salvageable does not mean the article should be kept. If the article gets wholesale rewritten demonstrating why each depiction of a ghoul was actually important, I would probably change my !vote. Saying TNT implies that I do think there could be a version of the article worthy of keeping. However, you would also have to prove that the information couldn't just be merged into Ghoul, which it absolutely could at the moment. ZXCVBNM ( TALK) 15:14, 25 May 2021 (UTC) reply
@ Zxcvbnm: Sure there was something salvagable before I ever touched that section: The sentences that I have kept and sourced, and which where the starting point for me. The same procedure could be applied to any point. (I am not saying that everything should be kept, but that some of it has worth.) It seems you expect a perfect article before you are willing to keep it (or even merge it, given your deletion vote), and I don't think that's how Wikipedia works or should would.

  • Keep per Uncle G's argument. This article can be cleaned up by providing sources. DestinFox talk 16:41, 28 May 2021 (UTC) reply
@ Destin Fox and Andrew Davidson: Can you elaborate on how Uncle G's argument says the article can be cleaned up and kept? The core problem of this article is that there isn't enough non-trivial coverage of 'Ghouls in popular culture', and this article was created to shove the unwanted content that was originally on the main article elsewhere. Per Uncle G's statement of "It should have been fixed, and ghoul should have discussed the imported idea, as other encyclopaedias in fact do", some of the content of this article could be merged back into ghoul, but only non-trivial entries with proper citations, meaning that 99% of the article would be removed, which isn't enough to justify a content fork. Waxworker ( talk) 15:28, 1 June 2021 (UTC) reply
@ Waxworker: If I may jump in here: First, I seems to me that Uncle G objects to this "shove the unwanted content", also stating that "in this particular case is that this was not bad content". Then the sources provided by Uncle G show us that there is enough non-trivial coverage of 'Ghouls in popular culture': Encyclopedia of the Zombie: The Walking Dead in Popular Culture and Myth (ISBN 9781440803895) has a two-page entry (+ more elsewhere in the book), The Ashgate Encyclopedia of Literary and Cinematic Monsters (ISBN 9781317044260), as I said, has five pages. There WP:GNG is already fulfilled. Then you say that "99% of the article would be removed". I've improved the Harry Potter entry (and to a degree the D&D entry) using existing material. So there's already more than 1 % to keep. Uncle G specifically mentions three more entries which appear in secondary sources and therefore would likely not be removed (out of, I am counting, 22) - so I think 99% is very much distorted. (And Uncle G mentions already three more appearances in secondary sources appropriate for inclusion.)

@ Piotrus: But which of the reasons given in WP:TNT would apply here? Daranios ( talk) 07:15, 11 June 2021 (UTC) reply
@ Piotrus: What about the example of Harry Potter. The fact that there were sources for the preserved part tells me that that was not synthesis by Wikipedia editors. The fact that there's a tertiary source discussing it (the ideal case according to MOS:POPCULT) tells me that this is a point not solely interesting to fans.

  • Prune then keep. Daranios convinced me this is salvageable, but let's face it, 99% of the content went already or still needs pruning. Keep the lead, and the reliably referenced paragraphs about Harry Potter and DnD. Everthing else needs to go. So, 1% kept, 99% deleted, this is, hmm, still a form of a keep I guess but... sigh. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:02, 11 June 2021 (UTC) reply
  • @ Piotrus: If most of it is pruned, then it does not need to be a spinout article. The info can be added to Ghoul instead as I mentioned above. It is pointless to have a spinout with so little content, so at the very least a redirect would be in order rather than a keep. ZXCVBNM ( TALK) 15:46, 11 June 2021 (UTC) reply
  • @ Piotrus: What Zxcvbnm has in mind is a merge and redirect, not redirect only, right? As stated above, I am open to either keep or merge at that point. The best thing to do would of course be check each point and see if there are actually secondary source or not. That's a lot of work however (and AfD is not clean-up). So one way to go about it would be to comment out the things where noone has done the checking yet. But to show that it's not so little, let's have a look at The Ashgate Encyclopedia of Cinematic and Literary Monsters only (which Uncle G has already done in part). There appear from the existing points (aside from Harry Potter): One Thousand and One Nights, Vathek, Edgar Allen Poe, Lovecraft, The Ghoul starring Boris Karloff and The Monster Club (and a number of other examples not yet in the article). So these should be kept also right away, because we already know that there is a tertiary source supporting them. So again, we are very far away from only 1 % of current content being worthwhile.

  • dissenting comment I do remember coming across the church (it's still there), but not the school; the problem, however, is that putting these buildings together into a "community" is an act of synthesis. Isolated churches and schools were a normal feature in any rural American area, even in the now-built-up middle Atlantic states. It's been interesting sorting through these Iowa cases, because even now it is easy to distinguish those that were actually laid out as towns from those which had their origins as mere post offices. In the former case, even today, there is as a rule a grid of streets, whereas the latter rarely even show a cluster of buildings at a crossroads. Mangoe ( talk) 17:57, 6 June 2021 (UTC) reply
No synthesis occurs when a source identifies a building being "at Dalby" or "in Dalby", or calls the school the "Dalby School". Whether a community was platted or was created through random aggregation, if there are sources naming these places as communities, then they clearly were communities. There's no problem with merging place-names of localities where no source shows there was a community, and in places where there were multiple hamlets with shared histories, it could be possible to merge multiple settlements together. However, in the specific case of Dalby, we have sources calling it a "hamlet" or listing it alongside other towns (Cram's 1902 Atlas lists Dalby in its index of towns). There's no doubt you identified several locales which truly were only post offices or rail stations, and your work should continue, but Dalby was not actually one of those places.

Largely a procedural nom. Created by a confirmed sockpuppet in violation of a block, but there are substantial edits from another user (@ Fiawsiel73:). Does not appear to be a notable company. News coverage appears to be limited to routine coverage, such as a press release announcing an executive selection, trade mags discussing station purchases with no substantial analysis of the company itself, S&P global with a passing mention of a deal involving this company.

The subject of this article fails to meet basic WP:GNG. This is essentially a self-promotional page for an actor who has never had a significant role. The subject also does not meet the criteria for WP:Ent since they have not had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances or other productions; have not accumulated a large fan base or “cult” following and; has not made a unique, prolific or innovative contribution to a field of entertainment. Additionally, none of the existing citations here, which include a college newspaper and a press release, meet the criteria for WP: RS.

  • Keep I disagree that there is a lack of independent content as the majority of the references are sourced from independent and reputable New Zealand newspapers or news websites. Also, given she's starred in Shortland Street, one of New Zealand's most high profile television programmes, as well as the fact she has won awards at one of New Zealands top Theatre Awards ceremonies (both as an actor and director), in my opinion she has met the notability guidelines for an actor. In light of this I am in favour of keeping this article. - Ambrosia10 ( talk) 05:26, 4 June 2021 (UTC) reply

The only major outfit that is missing is Newshub. One of the NZ Herald articles ("Life after Shanti") deals with her in depth. Most have a photo of her.

Basically some random guy went to this place and claims he saw the image of Christ on a rock. This is sourced to unreliable and WP:PRIMARY sources. One of the sources is a blog, another is a youtube video. Does not meet WP:GNG Rusf10 ( talk) 00:31, 28 May 2021 (UTC) reply

  • It is a locally important place of worship. The Tsotsiles who come to worship there are not a culture that writes a lot. I don't have the time to research where newspapers have reported about it in the past. I added the article to improve wikipedia and the links are meant to show that it exists and is considered important by locals (most of whom indigenous with little representation in the media). I suggest leaving the article for others to improve. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kjell.kuehne ( talk • contribs) 2021-05-28T01:48:48 (UTC)

A BLP of an evidently successful British businessman who has held posts at board level at BAA Airports Limited and Lend Lease Group. He is a former Vice-President and President of the British Property Federation. He has done much work for charity and received the CBE in 2006 for his work for the National Children’s Home. Has authored or co-authored two books.

Unfortunately, there is no significant coverage in reliable, independent sources with which to write a full biography. The two sources in the article are a few lines in an archived copy of a profile at Bloomberg Businessweek and a line in a list of recipients of New Year honours. My WP:BEFORE, including Google searches and searches of major British media - BBC [18]; The Independent [19] [20] [21]; The Guardian [22]; The Financial Times [23]; The Times [24], finds only brief mentions. A search of ProQuest brings up more of the same.

  • Keep. Better reviews exist, including this one which I accessed through my university in the Los Angeles Times: MARY McNAMARA (November 26, 2011). TELEVISION REVIEWS; Stories of faith and a mall. p. D19. {{ cite book}}: |work= ignored ( help) That took me two minutes to find. It’s an ABC program that aired nationally.

Update. There is also a review in The New York Times: Shattuck, Kathryn (November 27, 2011). "What's On Sunday". The New York Times. p. MB.11., and the book is mentioned five times in this scholarly book on Christmas films [27]. 4meter4 ( talk) 06:04, 11 June 2021 (UTC) reply

Old unreferenced BLP tagged in December 2017. No external links to reliable or otherwise useful references are provided. G-searches provided no hits for an artist called "X-8", although this could be a product of the ambiguous pseudonym. The previous AfD voted to keep this article but no references that indicate the subject's notability have since been provided. I welcome any attempts to provide suitable sources.

  • Redirect to Flipside_(fanzine). I did not see anything in a search for X-8, but that may be because search engines tend to interpret that as part of a dimension, as in 10 x 8. --- Possibly ( talk) 05:55, 4 June 2021 (UTC) reply
