Fails WP:GNG. 2 of the 3 sources are primary. There isn't much to these bilateral relations besides some minor historical interaction. The relations don't include things that typically make notable relations like state visits, significant trade/migration, embassies. LibStar (talk) 23:43, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete or possibly redirect to Foreign relations of Tonga. 2 of the 3 sources are primary and the other one looks unreliable. Nor is there really any content in the article, it merely notes that neither country has an embassy in the other before discussing the general history of imperialism in the Pacific in the 19th century (which is a bit of a coatrack). Tonga is a very small country on the other side of the world from Germany so this isn't very surprising. Hut 8.5 18:59, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment: The article in German language Wikipedia indicate some German language sources. My understanding is that in evaluation of notability we should only establish if there are sources in general and not if they are already included in article.--MirkoS18 (talk) 22:57, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I have inserted some additional English language sources. I haven't checked if there are relevant sources in German or any other language. It seems to me that the outcome here should certainly not be straightforward deletion but that more appropriate consideration is if you want to keep stand alone article or transfer the content to another one.

Subject fails WP:NARTIST and WP:ANYBIO. Many of these sources are not independent of the subject, as they are promotional puffery. Indeed, this article has been deleted before.

The depth of coverage is still not there; five sentences and a few photos does not meet the bar. There are no museum collections or serious art historical reviews.

@Pigsonthewing: As it is a company WP:NCORP applies. There is many companies that are leaders in their particularly field, but unless they have coverage that proves that, that they are notable, then they are not notable All the coverage here, all of it, is generated by the company in one form or another, as a startup. All that kind of self-generated coverage is explicitly forbidden by NCORP. NCORP was rewritten about 4-5 years ago to exclude these types of coverage, because it is self-generated. There is no WP:SECONDARY sourcing here. I'll go through the references and I will show you. scope_creep^Talk 09:49, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. As a paid editor working on behalf of Netskope, I would like to contest the removal of the Netskope article because multiple sources meet the WP:SIRS criteria. At least half of the citations include more than funding-round or press release information. I also have additional, new sources that I believe are relevant to suggest on the Talk:Netskope page.

• Comment Lets examine the first 15 references as its a good round number:

• Ref 1 [1]] The cloud 100 presented by Salesforce. Corporate produced Forbes document that profiles each company. States on the article, its an advertisement. Non-RS.
• Ref 2 [2] Routine funding news. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH, specifically, standard notices, brief announcements, and routine coverage, such as: of a capital transaction, such as raised capital, Funding news.
• Ref 3 Magic quadrant. A Gartner produced document, prepared by extensive interviews by the company and the software. Fails WP:ORGIND.
• Ref 4 [3] Techcrunch. Says it all. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH. Routine funding news.
• Ref 5 Dead link.
• Ref 6 [4] I don't it is significant. "Earlier this month, Netskope came out of stealth mode with $21 million in funding to combat shadow IT". Two sentences is a passing mentions, failing WP:SIRS as not significant.
• Ref 7 [5] Job fulfillment annoucement. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH of the hiring, promotion, or departure of personnel,
• Ref 8 [6] Non-RS Forbes contributor. Funding news. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH
• Ref 9 [7] Dead link. Funding news. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH. Expansion.
• Ref 10, 11 are patent information, which is NON-RS. They are WP:SPS sources.
• Ref 12 [8] Funding news. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH
• Ref 13 [9] Annoucement of aquasitions. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH
• Ref 14 [10] Same press-release as ref 13.
• Ref 15 Patent information, which is NON-RS.

Of the 15 references. 8 are routine funding news, 1 is plain advertisement, 1 is Forbes contributor site (Non-RS), 1 dead-link, 3 are patent information is non-RS. No patents on Wikipedia. It is a WP:SPS source, which is 14 out of the 15. The last one the Garner Magic Quadrant, which fails WP:ORGIND, as its due process at work and can't happen without massive input from the company. None of these references pass WP:SIRS. It is typical of startup, created by paid staff. It fails the WP:NCORP. scope_creep^Talk 23:52, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - I have to agree with Scope creep's assessment of the sources above, and the remaining sources are much the same. The article's subject fails WP:GNG and WP:NORG. Even if we accept the "Cloud 100" piece at face value as contributing towards notability (which is debatable), it's a moot point because it does nothing on its own; the article needs multiple reliable sources and it quite simply does not have that. - Aoidh (talk) 08:19, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

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

Article was created by a now-blocked editor judged not to be competent. It is an unnecessary (in my view) redirect to Wiktionary (the disambiguation page Wow already gives a link to Wiktionary). Is 'wow' even onomatopoeic? I don't think so - Wiktionary also doesn't list it as being so. Whether it is or not, I don't think we need this page.

• Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Language-related deletion discussions. — Jumbo T (talk) 22:59, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete It might be an onomatopoeia, in the sense that wow as a noun has existed since the 1920s [11], though this feels a bit like circular logic and indeed many sources classify the word as an interjection and explicitly not as an onomatopoeia. Moreover, Wiktionary does not discuss this (only a category at the bottom), so the utility of the redirect is unclear, and unless the word itself is an encyclopedic entry (which seems doubtful), any article here—including the initial version—would run afoul of WP:NOTDICT. ^Complex/_Rational 23:13, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete because Wikipedia is WP:NOTDICT. If the word "wow" is notable then perhaps a separate article could be written about it in an encyclopedic fashion with a different qualifier such as Wow (interjection), but as of right now this is an incorrectly titled redirect to wikionary and the link to wikionary is already included at Wow.

Fails WP:GNG. Most of the statements made in the article don't cite a source. Only five sources are cited, and they all seem to be connected to her, meaning there may be no secondary sources and the article may rely exclusively on primary sources. Two of the sources cited are models.com, which seems to be sort of like Linkedin for models. One of the sources cited doesn't seem to mention her at all.

Unsourced, unreleased film. Sources found include this and this (brief mention).

First sources says: In 1991, ghazal singer Talat Aziz wore a gold-embroidered jacket and trousers for his first acting role in the movie Dhun. Directed by Mahesh Bhatt, the film was about the journey of a small-town boy fulfilling his dreams of becoming a rock star. Aziz, who had by then made a respectable name for himself in ghazal singing, was aiming for much more with Dhun. However, the film was never released despite the popularity of the non-ghazal soundtrack by Laxmikant-Pyarelal that harnessed Aziz’s pop singing skills

• Keep I disagree, especially in regards to his Nolan roles. Prominent supporting roles in all three. NACTOR to me is sufficiently satisfied. Rusted AutoParts 22:36, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: ... and I disagree that those roles were "prominent." In Batman Begins, he's not listed among the ten leading actors in the Wikipedia article, and wasn't billed in the top dozen. In Memento, he's the last billed actor in the credits. In Insomnia, the overly extensive plot summary in the Wikipedia article doesn't mention his character at all. Somewhat helpfully, there's a crazed listmaker on IMDB who lists every actor in Christopher Nolan movies by screentime, and according to the list [18], Holden has exactly six minutes screentime in all three movies combined. There are NO reliable sources in the article, nor any evidence the subject meets the GNG. Just another Tinseltown just-some-guy. Ravenswing 05:00, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good thing we don’t use some random dudes IMDB list as a reason why an article should be deleted. Same with whether or not his name is in the top chunk of the cast list. Point remains, he had roles in those films that played a part, it’s not “Courthouse Lawyer #4” or “Bar Patron”. Rusted AutoParts 18:54, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

NACTOR requires considerably more than "having a role in the movie," and if you're not aware of that, you shouldn't be creating acting bios. I've seen evidence that Holden's performances were bit parts with minimal screen time. You haven't proffered a single scrap of evidence to the contrary, so you'll perhaps pardon me if I pay more credence to someone's recorded observations (which we all are, by virtue of watching the movies, capable of verifying) than to your ... nothing at all.

Come to that, you created the article on this obscure actor with nothing more of a source than the funeral home-supplied online obit, which is just this side of worthless. Why no genuine sources? Do you have a COI to disclose? Ravenswing 22:46, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No? Where the hell did that come from? No relations of any kind to the actor, just found you citing some dude's IMDB list and that he isn't in "the top dozen" names in a cast list extremely goofy. Feel free to cite NACTOR all you wish, that's the most valid thing to cite, not this IMDB crap. Rusted AutoParts 00:27, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Where that came from was in the inexplicable creation of a biographical article on a no-name actor, sourced only from a funeral home's webpage obituary ... something that's not only extremely goofy, but is characteristic of classic COI behavior. Ravenswing 04:58, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Film appears to fail WP:NFILM. There is one review cited, but more are needed to pass notability guidelines.

Previous discussion found a review [19], but no consensus on whether or not that is a reliable source.

The result of the first discussion was "no consensus", and the notability tag remains. I am not a fan of that tag, I think that either the article should be improved to the extent that the tag can be removed, or the article should be deleted if notability cannot be proven.

Can we come to a consensus this time? Notable (keep article) or non-notable (delete article). I vote Delete DonaldD23 talk to me 13:38, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Neutral. The Times of India is considered marginally reliable to generally unreliable, though Wikipedia:WikiProject Film/Indian cinema task force considers it WP:RS for film reviews so whether it is reliable is borderline. Otherwise, the previous discussion linked to this review, which is from a source with an unconvincing about us page and little editorial policies, but it partners with Hindustan Times, a WP:RS. I don't think a partnership would make it necessarily generally reliable, however, the opinions of other editors might differ. Therefore, IMO this article borderline fails WP:GNG (even if both of the reviews are obviously WP:RS, WP:GNG is still, generously speaking, just borderline met). In contrast, the rest of the sources appear to be routine announcements. Additionally, none of the WP:NFILM criteria appear to be met. My WP:BEFORE search mainly found announcements or general info on the actor that are insufficiently WP:SIGCOV, e.g., 1, 2. Therefore, I'm at neutral to weak delete (leaning towards neutral). VickKiang (talk) 21:28, 28 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep as well as the Times of India review there is this piece here from national newspaper The Indian Express which is a strange mishmash of an article but I think it does count as a bylined review, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 00:38, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  It’s a minor announcement on a trailer, you could say that it is SIGCOV, which I disagree but can see where you are coming from. However, I just don’t see how it could be classified as a review. Many thanks. VickKiang (talk) 00:41, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Yes it confused me as it seemed to be a review of the film but it is actually a review of the trailor so i'm withdrawing my vote Atlantic306 (talk) 00:44, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. There are two reviews including this one. Regarding notability, it is owned by HT Media and they hire proper journalists. The author of the review previously worked for The New Indian Express. Other sources found: here and here. DareshMohan (talk) 23:25, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, I should update to neutral as two reviews give (very generously) extremely borderline notability. On the other hand, this seems to be a routine announcement about the trailer, whereas this gives general coverage of an actor, quoting him exclusively but giving little direct in-depth independent coverage. So I personally don't think the latter two refs are SIGCOV but feel free to disagree here. Thanks. VickKiang (talk) 00:37, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a musician, not properly sourced as passing WP:NMUSIC. As written, this literally just states that he exists, sources his existence to the self-published website of his own record studio rather than any evidence of third-party media coverage about his work, and then just lists a bunch of production credits. As always, simply having credits to list is not an automatic inclusion freebie for a musician in and of itself — but while I get a fair number of glancing namechecks of his existence as a producer or a band member (as well as irrelevant hits for unrelated other David Carswells) on a ProQuest search, I'm just not really finding any WP:GNG-worthy sources that are about him in any non-trivial sense, nor am I finding any indication of the kind of notability-clinching awards (Juno, Grammy, etc.) that it would take to override GNG.

• Keep. We have articles for all the other Junior Eurovision Song Contests, so I think that we should have one for 2023. I see the argument that it was created too soon, but creating it in advance seems just the same as creating an article for an election in the future, which we know will happen. I'd keep it but work to improve it. Epa101 (talk) 23:06, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Most future elections do not have articles, mostly because we do not know if they will happen. Things can change suddenly, and we've seen that before, for example with the Eurovision Song Contest 2020. That one does have an article because quite a lot of notable things had already happened, but with the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2023 almost nothing has happened yet and there are almost no sources. As WP:TOOSOON says: If sources do not exist, it is generally too soon for an article on that topic to be considered. ―Jochem van Hees (talk) 23:49, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I disagree with your first part. There are several articles linked to here: List of elections in 2023. I acknowledge that most of these articles have more sources than for the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2023, but some do not have many sources. I have just done a search on Google News, and this event has now had coverage in several newspapers in the last few days.

The result was Keep as DABs where applicable. A bit of a messy AfD, with many disparate issues being discussed somewhat in parallel. There is clear consensus that NLIST is not met here; that is, the subjects of these lists are not notable as a group, though they may be individually notable. There is consensus that these pages may serve useful navigational functions, and as such pages that list three or more entries should be turned into DABs titled "Highway [number]". It's still unclear what we should do if and when only two or one pages are listed, and consensus isn't clear on this point. To me, common sense suggests that when a number DAB exists, that would be a logical merge target, and if none exists, then likely the matter can be handled without a DAB page at all; some PRODs and/or RfDs may be needed. However, this last is a suggestion only, as there was limited discussion of this case in the AfD. Normally, I would implement this closure, but given the size of the undertaking I'm going to duck that responsibility, and I note Primefac has offered to take up the slack, though of course he is not compelled to.

Texas and Louisiana have a lot of roads.^{[citation needed]} So does Kentucky (to a lesser extent).

Another option would be to disambiguate to just the number, like how the 1187 article was closed, but that involves more work. Jumpytoo Talk 21:45, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete If anyone is looking for a highway usually they're typing in the state or country first, then the number, or else to the highway article itself and to the bottom template to find the highway they need. These pages are so short as to be useless. Nate • (chatter) 22:26, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete all. Only a couple of entries per list is not a list and serves very little purpose as a disambiguation. Ajf773 (talk) 09:16, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep—I would not move any of these to new titles given that they're consistent with the other 1,300+ such pages in Category:Lists of roads sharing the same title. Given the number of articles in that category, I can see some utility to these, and I think that like redirects, dab pages are fairly cheap to have and serve some navigation utility. Imzadi 1979 → 22:36, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Comment—to clarify, if the titling is an issue, then a massive move request encompassing the other 1,300+ articles would be in order. We shouldn't be considering these 200 pages separate from the rest. Imzadi 1979 → 08:14, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Naming is not the issue. I recognise that there are a ton of these pages, and I plan on dealing with them at a later time. These are the metaphorical low-hanging fruit, and a good place to garner opinions about the other pages without having to explicitly nominate them (i.e. it will inform my future actions as to merge or AFD similar pages). Primefac (talk) 09:07, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect all to numbers. I disagree with the nom, as the lists are marginally useful like Jumpytoo says. They would definitely be better as categories and/or disambiguation pages, as such pages would not be totally useless for disambiguating topics like "Highway 1000". However, they are not suitable as standalone lists. Epicgenius (talk) 23:12, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  To clarify, I mean: List of highways numbered 1000 can be redirected to 1000 (number), List of highways numbered 1001 can be redirected to 1001 (number), etc.

  I think WP:LISTPURP overrides WP:NLIST here, namely: Lists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability. These lists do serve a navigational purpose, but they are all so short that they do not need to be standalone lists. Redirecting these lists to disambiguation pages, or to the articles about the numbers themselves, will allow these lists to continue serving a navigational purposes. Hence, I don't think the arguments that "these lists aren't notable as a group" are applicable here. – Epicgenius (talk) 18:41, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I think that if all possible entries were added, that there would be significant content for a disambiguation/set index page (which is what these are, these are not intended to be full-fledged articles). For example, Category:Roads in England, Category:Chinese national-level expressways, sk:Kategória:Cesty III. triedy na Slovensku, French national routes, bg:Категория:Републикански пътища в България etc. --Rschen7754 02:33, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Some of the past AFDs have ended in redirecting to the number (example: 1055 (disambiguation)) and I would find that acceptable too. --Rschen7754 02:39, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • My only issue with that is not all pages have dab pages; to pick one entirely at random (and yes, it was literally the first one I clicked), 1126 is about the year, and there is no "number" or "dab-style" page. So we would essentially be renaming List of highways numbered 1126 to 1126 (disambiguation), which seems more like moving around deck chairs than anything. Primefac (talk) 09:09, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • Even so, if we did this across the board, it would eliminate a significant number of pages. And it would open up the door to more entries as they come up. Regardless, disambiguation pages are cheap. I guess I don't see the problem. --Rschen7754 06:47, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep or redirect to the numbers dab pages. These dab pages could be expanded to list all highways in all countries with that number, which would make them more useful. If there are too few entries to maintain a dab page, redirecting to the number dab page is a good option. Dough4872 13:35, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep – Disambiguation pages are still necessary for navigation, especially considering that categories are not easily accessible for mobile readers. SounderBruce 06:06, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Right now, I see a strong, early movement to delete this mass-created pages and a later group of editors asking to Keep or Redirect them instead which could lead us to a No consensus decision. Just a note, the way this AFD is set up right now, I think any Redirect for all of these pages would have to be done manually. Right now, I'm just going to relist this discussion for another week/few days.

• Redirect all to numbers per Epicgenius and Rschen7754. Are the links on these pages useful? Sure, I guess. I personally don't use them, but that doesn't mean nobody uses them. Are there more highways out there that would potentially go into these lists? Definitely. Are these lists worth anything on their own? No. Redirecting to the numbers is the way to go. –Fredddie™ 06:11, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  As I asked above, what numbers? Most of the numbers on this list do not have a "things for this number" disambiguator, so we would just be turning (for example) List of highways numbered 1056 into 1056 (disambiguation) without changing anything. Primefac (talk) 07:34, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Most != all, especially if you are going to nominate the other articles for deletion. And it opens the door for those pages to be used by other things that come up. All the numbers under 2022 will at least have the year as an additional entry. Is there something I am missing? Do extra disambiguation pages cause the website any harm? It's not like they are stubs. --Rschen7754 17:21, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I see no difference at all between List of highways numbered 1000 and the very clearly necessary disambig/set index List of highways numbered 10. There appear to be fewer though so we don't need separate indexes for A1000 road, M1000, etc. and I would not necessarily be opposed to merging groups of numbers into a single set index if someone thinks that would be beneficial. Deleting this will make navigation harder without bringing any benefits to the encyclopaedia at all. Thryduulf (talk) 01:38, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I did actually start writing something similar to List of NGC objects (e.g. a composite list of "all highways between 1000-2000") but was concerned that it was basically duplicating the state lists (e.g. List of state highways in Louisiana (1000–1049)). Primefac (talk) 07:50, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  There are many UK A and B roads that could go on the lists too, although only some of the former have articles and if any B roads do they will be few and far between. See e.g. A1117 road and A roads in Zone 1 of the Great Britain numbering scheme. Thryduulf (talk) 02:45, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. Liz (the potential AfD closer) said that if a redirect was the consensus each article would likely have to be done manually, perhaps implying there's a lot more work involved than with a simple keep or delete. Being new to AfD discussions, on a practical point, who carries out the work? I'd hope it would be those who have proposed that course of action, not Liz! The redirect arguments to numbers I don't see a strong rationale for. I agree with the point that if this categorisation is of no use for roads/highways labelled upwards of 1000 then it's questionable whether it has any use for all those numbered below 1000. So my conclusion is: if this way of categorisation serves a useful purpose (and some contributors have hinted it might, though it seems without firm conviction), then keep all but if it doesn't delete all. Rupples (talk) 12:47, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  The XfDCloser script likely cannot handle 200+ pages being nominated at once, and so when the discussion is closed (regardless of the outcome) the result will need to be manually implemented. As the nominator of the AFD I am fine with doing that ("it's my mess" type of situation). Primefac (talk) 13:14, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Generally its the AfD closer who implements the consensus - this is no bother at all when there are only a few articles considered. There are tools/scripts that help with some large nominations, e.g. XfD closer I think can quickly remove templates from many articles if the consensus is keep; but the implication is that it can't handle creating redirects (I don't use it myself so I may be wrong). This is something AWB may be able to handle (I don't know) or there may be a bot out there that can do the job. That should not be a consideration in determining the consensus though.

  I too see no value at all in redirecting to the numbers, but I do (as noted) see these as valuable pages (possibly when merged) as there are more than just two US states that use four digit road numbers, e.g. the UK. France and Spain also have at least a couple each but we don't seem to have lists of them. Thryduulf (talk) 13:21, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Speaking as a potential closer: there is currently clear consensus that WP:NLIST is not met, but a reasonable argument has been put forward that these are valuable as DAB pages. Given the considerable input this has received it would be a shame to close this as "no consensus", so I'm relisting one more time in the hope that the remaining disagreement can be hashed out. So: do we keep all/some/none as DABs, do we retitle, do we merge? It wouldn't be the worst idea to ping those who have already participated here. Relisting manually, as this AfD breaks the script.

• Nominator comment: my first preference is still to delete these all, but if there is no consensus to delete then merging these into one or two list-of-lists type articles like List of NGC objects would be a reasonable (if distant) second choice. Primefac (talk) 19:51, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep (as DABs, but consolidate): I was confused as to the purpose of these pages, but having read through the discussion again, things are at last becoming clearer. I'd been trying to find insight or meaning between the links in the articles but failed. A1000 in the UK, FM1000 in Texas - no relation to each other, except they're both highways/roads. However, while a meaningful relationship is a requirement for a set index it's not for DAB pages. Notability isn't relevant as DABs are a navigational aid.

If successful with delete, the nominator has indicated an intention to AfD the rest of these highway lists what concerns me is the effect this could have on readership of the underlying articles for each road/highway because they may not be found so easily. Less links = less readers.

I don't get the argument for merging into numbers as there'd be even less relationship between the articles listed. Year 1000, highway 1000? Nah! Consolidation into DABs of highway numbers, between say, 1000 and 1099; 1100 and 1199 etc is a better alternative. Rupples (talk) 20:23, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Just as a point of clarification, I did not say I had an intention to AfD the rest of these highway lists. I said that this discussion will inform my future actions as to merge or AFD similar pages. Even if this discussion closes as "delete", there has been enough pushback that I would likely not be nominating any of the other pages for deletion, and clearly pages like List of highways numbered 10 (which is 10k long) should be left alone; The 1000+ numberings are, with very very small exception, a pseudo-dab between TX and LA highways. The others have semi-useful content, even if that content should probably be merged to a super-group page. Primefac (talk) 21:06, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies for the misinterpretation. Rupples (talk) 22:38, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• I agree with Rupples that these articles should be kept as DABs but consolidated. Like many others, I struggle with the utility of individual pages where there are only one or two entries. But there is precedent for lists of highways at higher numbers such as the Louisiana page mentioned in the nomination rationale. A discussion should be had to determine what an appropriate cutoff for these merged lists is. (E.g., it doesn't make sense to have "List of highways numbered 1-10," but "List of highways numbered 1000-1050" is probably fine).

• Keep as DABs but consolidated per Rupples. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 03:03, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Turn into disambiguation pages seems to be the compromise solution (and how these are presently functioning) but it isn't clear what "consolidated" means. If it means create ranges, such as Highways 1000–1099, then that's no longer "disambiguation". I recommend (1) retitling these lists in "Highway X" format, e.g., List of highways numbered 10 becomes Highway 10, which would be the term that needs disambiguating, then (2) if there are at least three entries, leave as a disambiguation page or for discussion, but if there are fewer entries, merge to the number's disambiguation page, or create one if none exists. E.g.:
  • List of highways numbered 10 becomes Highway 10 and stays a disambiguation page; link Highway 10 from Ten (disambiguation), its number disambiguation page
  • List of highways numbered 1000 becomes Highway 1000 and disambiguates between its three entries; link it from 1000 (disambiguation)
  • List of highways numbered 1001 becomes Highway 1001 and merges into 1001 (disambiguation) as it isn't worth keeping a separate disambiguation page for just two highway entries and there are other entries called "1001" that can be disambiguated; same for 1002 and 1003, which have year pages but neither number nor disambiguation pages and would need creation

Piecesofuk This list is great – thanks for compiling! I would just note that "My hols" by Steven Hartley in The Sunday Times doesn't count toward notability, since it's an article written in his voice. The video of his character sketch doesn't count either. But it is great to see all of it in a list regardless. Let's see if it's enough to update the article. Cielquiparle (talk) 12:40, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have one additional concern, which is: Does Steven Hartley even really want a Wikipedia article? It sounds like he has an expectation that he is entitled to "own" the article and that no one else is allowed to edit it. If that's the case, he may not be happy with the end product, when he realises it has to change in order to conform with Wikipedia guidelines.

Badly sourced BLP on a footballer that does not seem to meet WP:GNG or WP:SPORTBASIC in spite of playing one game of professional football. Best sources I can find are Ballthai, which is a basic contract renewal announcement - not sure if Ballthai is WP:RS but, even if it is, this isn't enough depth for a Wikipedia article. Super Sub Thailand also has a paragraph about him but this looks like a blog post. The depth isn't great either, it merely lists the age at which he joined Muangthong and lists a few low-level clubs that he was loaned out to.

Delete. Doesn't meet WP:LISTN. On a list level, which of the high-ranking Nazis were, say, germanized Slovenian Nazis and not "purely Germanic" is spectacularly unnoteworthy. Only something like a "list of Jews / people of jewish descent who were high ranking Nazis" could meet LISTN. The book Hitler's Jewish Soldiers is being mentioned as a source. It really is a book about this topic, but it is controversial (see this chronicle of higher ed article; the book was criticized as not advancing the understanding of Nazi Germany because "The paradoxes of Nazi policy are well known"; the author was criticized for describing these Nazis as "Jews" imprecisely). I'll note that we have a similar list already: Mischling#Prominent persons characterized as Mischlinge according to Nazi ideology (broader than just Nazis). tw^sabin 15:30, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. This is clearly a list of people with articles (so I fail to see how Non-Germans serving in the Wehrmacht and SS were simply not all that uncommon is relevant) who were of non-Germanic (not non-German) descent. Given the Nazis' racial views this is clearly a notable topic and has most certainly been discussed outside Wikipedia so does indeed meet WP:LISTN. It is also, contrary to claims above, clearly defined. Although, as I have said before, it needs retitling as not all the people listed were actually Nazis; serving in the Wehrmacht did not make one a Nazi. List of people of non-Germanic descent who served the Third Reich maybe? -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:55, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  @Necrothesp - Just a one example of a person from that list - Alfred Grislawski - how was his Polish decent established? 🙂 You see 🙂 WP:OR, (because of the last name I’m guessing). Check the the rest from that list, you’ll see it for yourself - pure WP:OR. - GizzyCatBella🍁 14:40, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Well, I doubt whether someone called Grislawski wasn't of Polish descent and the Ruhrpolen are a recognised minority! But that's beside the point. Because a list may include some OR doesn't mean the whole list should be deleted. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:48, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  That's about speaking a Germanic language though, whereas this is about claiming descent; which clearly implies some kind of genealogy. If a Japanese citizen would learn German, would this suddenly make him of Germanic descent? Vlaemink (talk) 13:39, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  No, it would make him a person of native descent from a non-Germanic-speaking region who happened to speak a Germanic language. However, a person of native descent from a Germanic-speaking region would be of Germanic descent. I think that's pretty obvious. Note we have countless categories which list people of XYZ descent. Nobody seems bothered about them, so I'm not sure why this article is so opposed. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:04, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  The supposed definition of "Germanic world" is based on language and geography; not on ancestry. That is to say, any person born into an area (anywhere in the world) which has a sustained population of speakers of a Germanic language is included within the definition found here on Wikipedia. While this would indeed exclude the Japanese, it would include various African tribes, native Americans, Aboriginals and Southeast Asians. These people are not of Germanic descent, they are of African, Native-American, Aboriginal and Asian descent — that is, if one were to believe in the existence of relatively closed racial categories; which I personally do not, as it is not supported by science. This list assumes and implies that speaking a variant of a particular language family is intrinsically linked to ancestry, which it fundamentally isn't. Also: The list included various (partial) Jewish people, many of whom would have spoken either German or Yiddish; which are both Germanic languages proving that, at the very least, the (now blocked and banned) user who created this article didn't use your definition. Vlaemink (talk) 07:59, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  @Vlaemink The blocked sock puppet who assembled this list mostly peeked at last names and began to assign decent based on that. Here --> Paul Radomski sounded Polish to him, so he appointed Radomski as being of Polish descent despite having no sources to back it up. - GizzyCatBella🍁 14:47, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete None of the 8 sources given ever proved the significance of the show. Sources 1, 5, 6 and 7 are more of promotions instead of independent coverages; Source 2 has no record of the subject in question; Source 3 is behind paywall, and from the title it reads like a promotional material as well; The video in source 4 didn't load for me so it's unclear; and the source 8 only provided two suspiciously identical ratings and an anonymous written review, with no indication of how many people participated in the scoring and no user written reviews. I wasn't able to find any other review about this series that does not read like promotion, and the only proof of significance that I can find is the 341 rated score on its imdb page. Does not meet WP:GNG as far as I can tell. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 18:54, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. This review is not anonymous, it is written by critic Archika Khurana. Either way, no other reviews found. DareshMohan (talk) 08:22, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Wikipedia has low inclusion standards and this show is not meeting them. I agree with Tut above - the reviews either are promotional copy or they are derived from it without obvious new critical review. I am always surprised when a production has the budget to sponsor the creation of an entire video series but not the foresight to do outreach to critics to get some kind of review published. Wikipedia relies on sources though and I am not seeing the sources here. Bluerasberry (talk) 17:08, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Source 1 fails WP:RS. I do not think source 2 talks about the article subject, so its relationship with the Type 905 seems to be WP:OR.

I cannot find such a class in Janes 2004 or 2015. In those Y834 is Qiongsha class. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 07:55, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article about former footballer who played sparingly for a club in the Norwegian top division before his career ended. There is no significant coverage in reliable sources; just database entries, match reports, and an interview with Vikebladet Vestposten. The interview is the best thing I could find, but is mostly quotes from the subject of the article, and not enough to satisfy WP:GNG on its own. Jogurney (talk) 07:11, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 01:18, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Many of these links are not helpful in showing that the GNG could be met. The June 2008 Adresseavisen and the May 2012 Tidens Krav links are simply match reports (nothing in-depth there). The May 2009 NRK link is a match preview that reads like his club's press release (again nothing in-depth there). Almost every other link is an interview with Fløtre (which wouldn't be coverage that is independent of the subject); the Vikebladet Vestposten, Adresseavisen and Aftenposten interviews contain small amounts of prose written by the author while the Verdens Gang interview is behind a paywall. The only exception I see is the November 2012 Adresseavisen interview which covers his loan to third-tier Kristiansund BK as there are paragraphs of prose. That said, I don't think this rises to the level of meeting the GNG, and I'm disppointed that you included match reports and previews without realizing they contribute little-or-nothing to the analysis. Jogurney (talk) 18:26, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I've found couple of sources that have not been discussed here. This Aftenposten article/interview from 2009 does discuss his career a bit up to that point (his previous year cup success, contract status and recent success with the reserve team). Then there is this Stavanger Aftenblad article from 2008 that discusses his game winning goal for AaFK in his debut in 2008. Alvaldi (talk) 20:05, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• I appreciate the effort in finding those, but I think the AP article contains very little prose (much like the interviews Das posted above) and the SA article is a match report with some extra prose on Fløtre. These are better than nothing, but I still don't believe we've approached the GNG. Jogurney (talk) 16:01, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  I have to disagree with you a bit about the sources, in my opinion the SA article is specifically about his debut but not a match report per se and the AP article, when stripped of the pure interview parts, does contain about 1700 characters. However its up for debate if the content of those articles are deep enough. Personally I'm swaying between weak keep/weak delete. Alvaldi (talk) 17:52, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
