Fails WP:GNG: the only source that mentions CoEW more than once is the In These Times source, which does NOT cover CoEW, but merely mentions it as a predecessor to Amazon Labor Union, which is what the article is about. Women's Wear Daily is a source for news on FASHION, NOT politics, and the Los Angeles Times mentions it only once as the group protesting in front of Jeff Bezos' house. Searching the web, I did not find any other sources. ---Avatar317(talk) 00:51, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]


  • Keep. (As creator of article) Due to meeting WP:GNG based on the WP:SIGNIFICANT coverage in reliable sources, including:
  1. https://inthesetimes.com/article/amazon-workers-band-together-to-form-labor-union-against-amazon-jeff-bezos-chris-smalls In These Times is a reliable source, the article says a lot about the organisation and it's set up, that's easy to see and so I think the nominator is mistaken.
  2. https://wwd.com/business-news/business-features/amazon-chris-smalls-workers-group-1203631429/ Yes Women's Wear Daily is a notable fashion industry trade journal, and so it's logical to cover trade disputes and has a focus on retail (the org is about online retail workers). It's a trade journal established in 1910 (over 100 years of experience) with a full editorial department https://wwd.com/about-us/

And yes, the mention in the LA Times is brief, and so is the mention in New York Magazine, but the two pieces of significant coverage give us enough to make a start length article, so matches my expectations of something to keep. CT55555(talk) 01:02, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge to Amazon Labor Union - Just to clarify, I first thought of starting a Merge discussion, to merge the relevant parts of history into the Amazon Labor Union article, but I figured that the better way to start the discussion was here (since you created this as its own article rather than as history in ALU). My opinion is that the InTheseTimes article was written in May 2022, thereby only covering CoEW because it became ALU, rather than as its own organization, and that the Women's Wear Daily article only states: "...Smalls is starting The Congress of Essential Workers, or TCOEW, a rank-and-file committee that is going to be..." so it can't be said to be biographical of CoEW. Additionally, since this org no longer exists, it won't be getting more coverage in the future (other than coverage as a predessor to ALU). So I would really vote for "Merge".---Avatar317(talk) 01:41, 3 December 2022 (UTC)striking the ivote of the nominator. The nominator does not get to ivote in the AfD. Delete, keep, draft, redirect, merge are all outcomes to be decided by editors. The nominator has already ivoted by nominating. WP:DISCUSSAFD Lightburst (talk) 03:08, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You said "Searching the web, I did not find any other sources" but I just did a full WP:BEFORE search and found three books with more information, which I added in. I mention in case that persuades you. CT55555(talk) 02:05, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And I see no reason to assume no more coverage will be coming, unless you only consider news sources (which does seem to be what happened here) because I can see potential for academic writing and books to write more about the chain of events that lead to the first union of USA's 2nd biggest employer. I consider it most likely that more content will come. CT55555(talk) 02:08, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The sources you have just added contain nothing more than small mentions of this organization as one of many pursing similar goals/agendas; meaning we still do not have a single source to establish notability of this organization *in its own right* (other than as a predecessor to ALU).
I agree with you that more academic coverage may be coming, but that is merely (again) because as you said CoEW is part of "the chain of events that lead to the first union of USA's 2nd biggest employer."
My main point here is that because there has not been any WP:GNG type news about this org, means that it never accomplished enough in its own right to generate enough news coverage to be notable, and therefore does not meet the qualifications for its own separate article.---Avatar317(talk) 22:09, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't agree about the relevance of it only being notable because of something else. Things either pass the general notability guideline or they don't. We don't delete things just because they have a more notable relation or successor. For example:
  1. Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company would probably not be notable if it wasn't for IBM, but it still is notable.
  2. If Joe Biden didn't get so famous, would Neilia Hunter Biden even have been notable? Probably not, but he did and she passes GNG
  3. Probably Kasper Rørsted wouldn't be notable if he didn't get he Adidas job, should we merge him into the Adidas article? No, he's notable in his own right.
Things can be notable, even if they are less notable than the thing they are closest to.
Let's get even more specifically similar:
  1. Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers is the predecessor to United Steelworkers, both are notable
  2. American Nurses Foundation is an arm of American Nurses Association. But because it passes WP:GNG it's OK for both to have articles.
Many things are mostly notable because of something else, but that's not important. What is important is if there is reliable sources with significant coverage. There is. CT55555(talk) 04:21, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
So far, we have minor coverage in ONE source and single mentions in multiple sources; not enough for GNG, in my opinion. ---Avatar317(talk) 22:20, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If that was correct, I might agree, but my first reply to you includes links to an In These Times article that talks about the org significantly and a trade magazine article that is specifically about the org. CT55555(talk) 03:19, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The InTheseTimes article gives minor coverage (not significant) and (as I already said above) the trade magazine (Women's Wear Daily) states: ...Smalls is starting The Congress of Essential Workers, or TCOEW, a rank-and-file committee that is going to be..., written 10 days after he started it, so it can't be said to be biographical of CoEW; an article describing the hopes and aspirations of a yet-to-be organization is only coverage of the starter's dreams/hopes, which may not turn out to be what the org actually does. ---Avatar317(talk) 01:35, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

*Merge to Amazon Labor Union. They seem to be the same organisation. MrsSnoozyTurtle 21:35, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • They are not the same organization. I think the way to look at it is that Congress of Essential Workers created a new and different (but connected) organizationAmazon Labor Union. Even after the second organization was stared , the first one is still active, they were tweeting last month https://twitter.com/tcoew The same twitter bio mentioned that the former org is supporting the later org.

  • Keep the predecessor to the Amazon Labor Union is notable and is covered in reliable sources like the LA Times. We have enough for an encyclopedic article on the subject. Lightburst (talk) 23:57, 8 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Hello Lightburst. Didn't the Congress evolve into the ALU, instead of them being separate organisations? Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 23:50, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep it is notable. Follow the WP:RSs. Bruxton (talk) 04:09, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I am leaning towards keep based on my initial research, which seems to indicate TCOEW is more than a predecessor because it has functioned as an umbrella organization that includes the ALU, e.g. Vice 2021, distinguishes TCOEW from other unions, including ALU, WaPo 2022, identifies Jordan Flowers as a current member of TCOEW and ALU. Perhaps a broader research focus on the past and current activities of this organization can help support its notability per the WP:NONPROFIT guideline. Beccaynr (talk) 17:29, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree. I think I have mischaracterised/misunderstood the predecessor/successor dynamic when I created this one and in forming/verifying my reply above to MrsST, I understood it the way you have said it above. CT55555(talk) 17:47, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    There is some general context related to the background/formation of the organization in this 2020 NYT source, and: "Smalls is planning more labor actions and hoping to organize workers under a new banner — the Congress of Essential Workers. ‘‘We want to use a union­like structure but not call it a union,’’ he said. ‘‘A lot of employees at Amazon are afraid of unions.’’" Beccaynr (talk) 20:26, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Seems to be a separate organisation to the ALU. MrsSnoozyTurtle 21:46, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Extremely overdue AfD for this badly sourced BLP that hasn't had a proper source since it was created in 2010. He exists because I can find a mention in World Rugby and Nation but we know nothing about this person other than the fact that he is a Tunisian person and that he plays/played rugby.

The subject was the executive producer of the short film Love In Plane Sight. I think it's likely that the creator (who has an apparent conflict of interest) considers him notable under WP:CREATIVE #3 or WP:ANYBIO #1. I don't think that these criteria extend to every person involved in creating a creative work. In this case, it seems clear that notability is extended to Matej Rimanić and Nik Kranjec. Given that I have found no independent/significant coverage of this person, I think a redirect to the film might be the best option. Modussiccandi (talk) 16:54, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Luka Jurinčič is quite a successful director in Slovenia, but I guess he hasn't got the media coverage? Nik Kranjec (talk) 13:46, 4 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Was screened at a minor film festival. Zero in-depth coverage from independent, reliable sources. Many of the current sources do not even mention the film. The only decent coverage is from the East Mojo, however, that site uses a "network of citizen-reporters", so probably doesn't qualify as a reliable source. Searches turned up zero in-depth coverage.

As per the previous PRODs and AfD, I still do not see how this conference event meets WP:SIGCOV or WP:NEVENT or WP:NORG. We barely have enough sources to support the text, not to mind supporting notability. While there were several recommendations for deletion in the previous AfD, the one contributor advocating a "keep" pointed to a single Irish Times article in which the subject is mentioned and a few (primary source) webpages where vague "claims to fame" were made (about being the "longest running sustainable living festival [in Ireland]" - when such a claim is unqualified, the source unknown and [for all we know] is/was the ONLY such event in Ireland). I can find no additional sources or coverage since my 2021 WP:BEFORE. Which is not surprising given that the event has been defunct since 2018 or 2019. That the article has subsequently been turned into some form of unsupported WP:NOTWEBHOST archive of the event's activities does little to justify retention....

This fails WP:GNG. The AfD two years ago had pretty weak participation, with one merge suggestion (with Darkseid) and one keep vote that referred to WP:NCOMIC, which is a user essay and as such hardly a strong argument, and one keep or merge, also citing NCOMIC. The article should've been relisted for more discussion, alas, it wasn't and since it hasn't improved, I think it's time to revisit this. Considering that it's a plot summary with no analysis/reception, and poorly referenced, I am unsure what would warrant a merged and hence I can suggest a redirect as the best WP:SOFTDELETE alternative.

I guess it's a tossup between Apokolips which mentions them in pasing and the New Gods which lists them in a big and terribly bad list there. I would prefer to former, as I have serious doubts whether Parademons are correctly listed as "New Gods of Apokolips"; they are more grunts then gods. If anyone knows more of the lore here they can correct me. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:51, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Piotrus: "New Gods" refers collectively to all of the characters existing in Kirby's fourth world, so Parademons are just as much New Gods and anyone else. That said, I don't really have an objection to redirecting to Apokolips either, so the closer can take that into account when deciding a redirect target.

Article about footballer who made some appearances in the Bolivian top division but is now playing amateur football. There is no significant coverage in reliable sources about this footballer (although there is significant coverage of his Argentine father who played football). The best sources about the subject are club press releases that were worked into articles (announcing he was training with a Brazilian club's youth side) such as this and this.

Repeatedly recreated badly sourced BLP and a likely autobiography. The coverage clearly falls short of WP:SPORTBASIC and WP:GNG and a WP:BEFORE search yielded nothing better. Google News had zero hits. Sigma Live 1 is a trivial mention (and is also a copy-paste of a press release from the club website) as is Sigma Live 2. Trifylli seems promising as it actually contains a paragraph about him but it is a fan site for AC Omonia and not true independent WP:RS. Even if this source were acceptable, SPORTBASIC explicitly calls for multiple non-trivial secondary sources which we do not appear to have for this WP:AUTOBIO.

  • Delete. It should not be difficult to find sources for a notable company in the Anglosphere.

  • Keep per WP:HEY for the reasons given above by JarrahTree. A discussion on the products can make the company notable and there's ample coverage of that. And even if there's not consensus to keep there's ample valid reason as an alternative to deletion to Redirect to Repco which is the company that ultimately bought it, where there can be some valid discussion if necessary.

You are mistaken. Significant, independent reviews of a company's products can render the products notable, but the company doesn't inherit that and the guideline does not say otherwise.

I am not mistaken. The policy doesn't say what you think it does, so you need to stop trying to read things into them to back up your point - the amount of silly arguments like this on AfD are tiring.

It came out September 2022 as Warren and Brown - The First 100 Years. The price, $130 or so, is probably OK for such a tome, but outside my budget and almost certainly our local library's.

  • Delete per nom. Completely insignificant and trivial list. Frank Anchor 02:08, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Good idea, but we really only need a list of the players, not this long-winded article. Oaktree b (talk) 03:30, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • This sounds like a rationale to edit the article down rather than delete. Rlendog (talk) 13:40, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Lists of people and Baseball. Shellwood (talk) 10:38, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The article is sourced and fits in with the other lists of baseball players. This article was created when all the individual articles for these players were deleted. This was the compromise. It is not "indiscriminate" cause there is a very clear criteria for this list. Spanneraol (talk) 16:43, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Leaning keep or move to project space. There is an increasing propensity for old sources to be digitized and made accessible, which suggests that in time it may become possible to fully identify some of those listed here. However, without the list to work from, those connections will not be made. BD2412 T 16:53, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Spanneraol. This is an unusual situation and as Spanneraol says, was based on a consensus compromise when addressing articles on certain of these players. It is perhaps IAR, but certainly not LISTCRUFT or INDISCRIMINATE. Rlendog (talk) 16:59, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This topic is not important. If the players are important, we would know their names. Ghost of Kiev (talk) 17:16, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and maintain status quo. There used to be separate articles on each of these players. Indeed, the article on Lewis was a Featured Article. See here. As Spanneraol notes, some objected to these being stand-alone articles, and the compromise was to combine them in this list article. The compromise was reasonable then, and if it is revoked, then I would fully expect this to go full circle with some arguing that the prior stand-alone articles should be restored. Cbl62 (talk) 17:50, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Being featured is not a reason unto itself. Dronebogus (talk) 07:32, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    unto itself Sweet use of an archaic phrase. I'll give you that ... except nobody said it was a reason "unto itself". Cbl62 (talk) 15:45, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I didn’t know “unto itself” was an archaic phrase. Dronebogus (talk) 08:22, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Neutral to be honest with you I see both parties' points. I see that the list clearly needs more indicators of notability (ie more references which specifically list notability or say why ball players without a given name should be notable) but I also see that this list came from a bunch of non-notable ball players that would probably never get notability. I believe this list was a compromise between keeping every player but moving them to a list. If more refs could be provided which list why it's notable consider me a keep, but for now I'm neutral. Therapyisgood (talk) 18:38, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    There doesn’t have to be a list of non notable people in a non-notable category that has no obvious inherent notability (these people obviously weren’t the best or most at anything if they’re nearly forgotten). Dronebogus (talk) 07:42, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep there is absolutely nothing indiscriminate about this list. There are clear criteria for inclusion and the list is well-sourced. This community is far too tolerant of misleading AFD nom rationales. At any rate, there is no good reason to delete this list. LEPRICAVARK (talk) 20:40, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It’s indiscriminate because it’s Wikipedia:NOTDIRECTORY of no clear importance, not because it’s unspecific. The fact that you’re accusing nobody in particular of being “too tolerant” of good faith arguments seems like you’re trying to disqualify it on Wikipedia:LAWYER grounds Dronebogus (talk) 07:37, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    NOTDIRECTORY is a completely different argument from INDISCRIMINATE. Seems kind of ironic for you to move the goalposts like that and then accuse me of wikilawyering. Also, misleading AFD nom rationales and good faith arguments are not the same thing. LEPRICAVARK (talk) 15:03, 24 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    “Misleading” is not inherently malicious; a mistake can be good faith. You seem to be suggesting a misleading rationale should be considered an actionable offense. Dronebogus (talk) 08:21, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, a mistake can be good faith. But if you recheck my initial comment, you'll see that I never opined on whether or not you were acting in good faith. You put those words in my mouth. I also never said anything about it being actionable. You also put those words in my mouth. Whether or not you were acting in good faith, I am tired of seeing articles brought to AfD on the basis of policies that do not apply. LEPRICAVARK (talk) 16:13, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    That’s reasonable then, I suppose I misinterpreted you, but your point about the community’s “tolerance” of AFDs you object to also wasn’t very clear to begin with. Dronebogus (talk) 09:17, 26 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    True, I certainly could have been clearer. LEPRICAVARK (talk) 23:24, 26 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or move to project space. A list should have a clear criteria, but the criteria should be something that people might actually want to see collected in one place. A mention of them on their team's page, plus a brief aside about their given name not being identified, seems like it collects the information in a much more useful place for readers. Rusalkii (talk) 22:27, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • I don't think that's really viable. The last player on this list (Leonard) played for the St Louis Cardinals, a club for which (as far as I can see) more than 2000 players have played down the years. To single Leonard out for mention in the team article solely because his forename is not known would seem to be a massive UNDUE violation..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:12, 28 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      There shouldn’t be a mention at all. This list is all about digging up meaningless trivia and putting it in a wildly WP:UNDUE framework even though, as mentioned, nobody cared enough about these players to even keep track of their first names. Dronebogus (talk) 12:48, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The nominator's rationale is severely flawed. The second footnote, a SABR report from 2007, does contain discussion about several of the players listed (although I couldn't blame anyone for missing that because it was unreasonably hard to access). Additionally, the effort SABR members and other baseball historians have put in to finding first names and biographical information about these players, which has paid off in some cases (such as that of Patrick Larkins, a former member of the list in question), should put to rest the idea that this information is too trivial to appear on Wikipedia. Ideally the sourcing would be better than it is now, but WP:Deletion is not cleanup. Hatman31 (talk) 01:23, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Also, just in case anyone objects that SABR is just one source, I should probably note that official MLB historian John Thorn has devoted two posts on his blog to a player formerly known only as Stine/Stein: here and here. I guess the case to keep isn't as airtight as it would be if someone found writing that covers all or most of the players without first names, but I still firmly believe that deleting this list would not make the encyclopedia better. Hatman31 (talk) 01:37, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The use of an actual academic source is good. Dronebogus (talk) 07:55, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    This would seem better suited to the SABR crowd, it's likely too niche at this point for wikipedia. Ideally, they would do the research and publish it, then we can synthesize the results here. Oaktree b (talk) 16:24, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Stats stub for a footballer with no evidence of being able to meet WP:GNG or WP:SPORTBASIC, the latter guideline clearly states that the likes of Soccerway do not confer notability. All I can find in Greek language searches are basic press releases and no actual detailed coverage. Anorthosis 24 is an Anorthosis Famagusta F.C. fan site with low standards for inclusion and is only 3 sentences long (translated here).

28 references, wow! Only one of them actually seems to be about this record though, the first one, which is their homepage. Not surprising, as this release has received no attention at all[3]. Fram (talk) 11:27, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article is still work-in-progress. It will be finished next week with more references. The record has not received attention because it was just released two days ago and has not been released on Spotify, after which the band will officially release it to its fans on social media. 2600:4041:5B07:EE00:6DC6:E93B:1030:2AF0 (talk) 12:57, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Being on Spotify and social media doesn't make the album notable if nobody outside of the band's social media is talking about it. At the moment it looks like both this and Dicken Schrader could be redirected to DMK (band) (which also suffers from massive citation overkill). Richard3120 (talk) 17:36, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, the record still has not received any attention because it has not been officially released yet. When it does, we usually get a few interviews and articles outside of social media. I should have built this article as a draft until I get more relevant references.
As for "Dicken Schrader" the article has enough references to make it relevant. Dicken Schrader is notable in his own right for being one of the fans featured in the official Depeche Mode movie, outside his involvement with DMK which made him viral in 2012. 2600:4041:580E:7A00:4CD6:5BB3:B1F8:7DB2 (talk) 14:11, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't have "enough" references - it has way too many references. And quantity does not equal quality... most of them are passing mentions, references to DMK, or interviews with him which fail WP:PRIMARY. But that's for another AfD. Richard3120 (talk) 14:54, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Although there are mentions in The Guardian, The Huffington Post, CBS News, etc, there are also interviews in El Tiempo (Colombia's largest newspaper), which did a main article on Schrader and the band, plus other important publications around the world. 2600:4041:580E:7A00:4CD6:5BB3:B1F8:7DB2 (talk) 16:27, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, you say "we get a few interviews". So are you in fact Dicken Schrader, and should you be declaring a conflict of interest? Richard3120 (talk) 14:56, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am not, but I help him and the band with their releases and social media presence. 2600:4041:580E:7A00:4CD6:5BB3:B1F8:7DB2 (talk) 16:23, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. This article needs to cut back on the citation overkill. The last sentence of this article has 19 footnotes. That's unnecessary and unhelpful; one good citation per fact is enough (taking into account reliability of the source). As the nom indicates, many of the citations don't even refer to this album; the album was released two days ago, and some of the citations are more than ten years old. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 01:46, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, or as a second choice redirect to DMK (band). While the citation overkill is no longer a significant issue, the fact remains that most of the citations predate the album's release by at least five years and thus would more appropriately be considered sources for an article about the band's overall career, not for this particular album. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:15, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yeah, it's a bit of a stretch, as few of these usages are actually noted in the linked articles. I was able to confirm the existence of halm (botany) at wikt:halm. For the Antarctica hills, it sounds like a WP:PTM, it's hard to tell if people refer to these as "Halm". --Joy [shallot] (talk) 09:28, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi guys, I created both the disambiguation page and the surname article, albeit a long time ago (almost 5 years!). I think you guys are probably right that the surname article should be at the base name. I would do that, and move the dabpage to Halm (disambiguation). Dr. Vogel (talk) 14:57, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's unlikely that anyone will add encyclopedic content about the name itself, so what we have is effectively a dab page split in two. But such a split it not needed: there are eleven people with the name and then one other meaning (not counting the hills as they should be removed as clear WP:PTMs: halm is just the Bulgarian for 'hill'). So, Halm (surname) should just be merged into Halm (there's no need for moving the pages themselves: there's no substantial page history to dance around, and both pages were created by the same editor within minutes of each other). – Uanfala (talk) 14:10, 4 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Ok, I've merged all the people into the disambiguation page. When I created these 2 pages 5 years ago, I'd only just started editing. I wouldn't do that now, I would just create a single dabpage. Anyway, it's much neater now. I think this is in keeping with the opinions people have expressed here. Dr. Vogel (talk) 19:02, 4 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    There are some editors who still prefer having dabs separate from surname indexes. I too was proceeding from that assumption when I first started dabbling in this area years ago. – Uanfala (talk) 19:21, 4 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to National Ringette League, without prejudice to re-creation if evidence of notability surfaces. Readers who search for this team should at least be sent to the article that covers the league it is part of and that mentions the team. (I note that there is a French Wikipedia equivalent to this article, but it does not look in very good shape, either.) TJRC (talk) 20:59, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to National Ringette League. An excellent solution. ProQuest search turned up 92 hits on the team, but I've quickly scanned and spot checked and they are mostly passing mentions in routine match reports and previews (very little info on the team at all, let alone sigcov...and incidentally...they seem to lose a lot).

  • Comment Being the world's fattest child (morbidly obese) is perhaps something that doesn't require an article, could be mentioned maybe briefly in another article. There are sources, but I don't think the person would be at GNG otherwise. If kept, we'd need to balance out the article so it doesn't focus solely on the obesity, it's not NPOV and rather one-sided. The article as it stands now can almost be used to shame the person. Oaktree b (talk) 15:37, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. If this article is kept, it needs to be closely scrutinized for protection of the subject's privacy per WP:BLP, as the subject is still a minor, is relatively unknown, and is not a public figure. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:58, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Delete Coverage is one-sided, only talking about the obesity. NPOV isn't possible as we know nothing about the person, other than their weight. Systemic bias would be introduced as we are only talking about the weight issue, the individual lives in a non-western country where media is perhaps more sensational that what we require to balance the sources.
    Oaktree b (talk) 22:17, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - The article perhaps meets WP:GNG I will admit, but Metropolitan90 makes a very good point that this is a private individual who is a minor, and coverage only covers their obesity. This additionally seems to fall under WP:BLP1E, which means that we should not have an article for this individual at this time. - Aoidh (talk) 22:33, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is the nice template with "eight winds of the Mediterrenean" that suggests some notable grouping, but sources are lacking here and in interwikis I checked. BEFORE shows very little; there are some non-English mentions, and some 19th century mentions in passing [5], but I have trouble verifying most of the information and estabilishing WP:GNG here. We don't have an article for winds of the Mediterranean. Not sure what we can do here, but for now we have an unreferenced OR that needs to be dealt with one way or another. Ditto for Template:Mediterranean wind rose - this template is very WP:ORish, suggesting a classification according to whom?

  • SNOW keep WP:GEOLAND explicitly says: International road networks (such as the International E-road network), Interstate, national, state and provincial highways are typically notable. Repeated discussions at WP:USRD/P and Wikipedia:WikiProject Highways/Precedents (including several recent discussions) have upheld this. Yes, this is India. But we have articles for most state highways in the US, and this AFD just goes to further systemic bias. I will try to search for sources, however with the number of concurrent AFD discussions it is becoming more difficult to do so. --Rschen7754 01:30, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Besides the ones I found below, I suspect there are likely more sources somewhere, however I am hitting a language barrier (main language is Kannada) and paywalls. We have to keep in mind WP:NEXIST as well - we know the road was in existence in some form back into the 19th century [6] and I suspect that newspapers of that era will be very hard to find. --Rschen7754 02:50, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Typically" does not mean always, and the nutshell clearly indicates that there is no presumption of notability for anything other than populated places. What is more, artificial features are specifically required to have sources "independent of the bodies which have a vested interest in them", and the article only cites a government website, so the notability here is nonexistent. Avilich (talk) 02:27, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
My concern as I will express elsewhere is that "typically" is here being interpreted to mean "never". --Rschen7754 02:32, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"Typically" means "A geographical area, location, place or other object is presumed to be notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are, in the case of artificial features, independent of the bodies which have a vested interest in them". It does not mean whatever the cited Wikiprojects think, whose opinions are irrelevant as per WP:LOCALCONSENSUS. Avilich (talk) 02:36, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Again, that's a government source, it's not independent and doesn't contribute to notability. Avilich (talk) 14:30, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I was able to convert the PDF to images to OCR to text to Google Translate to poorly translate the Kannada-language document into English to get a gist of what the document contains. It is mostly a description of the villages and cities the highway passes through, with some distances between certain points. The only clear piece of information is that State Highway 93 was assigned as part of the Karnataka Highways Act of 1964. VC 05:06, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, in said document, page 12 [7] we read that all state highways are officially designated by the state government and published in the official Gazette. So this underlies the overall significance and inherent notability - this is more than one can say about most schools, for example. --Rschen7754 17:51, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Governments do a lot of things. To say anything that appears in official gazettes needs its own article here is bullshit. There is no such thing as "inherent notability" here and its official designation can be covered in List of state highways in Karnataka, nothing stopping expansion of that article either. Reywas92Talk 18:00, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
But I thought legally defined populated places were inherently notable. --Rschen7754 18:08, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
They are "typically presumed to be notable". Doesn't mean we can't still discuss and delete or merge articles on them if coverage is inadequate. Reywas92Talk 01:13, 4 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see why this is any different from the case of state highways and why the same presumption doesn't apply here. Let's face it: neither you nor I can read Kannada, the native language. That language is not even using the Western alphabet and Google Translate barely works on it, so it is difficult to even search on it. The original creator vanished after three of their articles were redirected, seems coincidental to me. We can write at least a few paragraphs on a 120 mile road just using Google Maps, but suddenly that is not reliable and almost blacklist-worthy. So we are just going to further systemic bias and assume that a 120 mile road around since the 19th century has no possible sources in any language, online or offline, and thus delete it and set a precedent that will probably result in deleting every other state highway in Karnataka. Seems responsible to me. </sarcasm> --Rschen7754 21:21, 4 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
To add - it appears that this state highway was also discussed in the state legislature, see [8] - though thanks to the paywall and language barriers we have no idea what was said. Again, more than you can say about many state parks and schools. --Rschen7754 18:55, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Google Maps [9] indicates this is also known as Sirsi-Yellapur Road. We have these two articles [10][11] though even I would consider them borderline noteworthy. Google Books is more interesting, we have this [12] which is from a SPS company however the author might qualify as an expert. There is also a mention in here. (This doesn't mean that is all there is, or that any of us are necessarily done searching). --Rschen7754 02:16, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is this serious? 1: primary source; 2: flood report, literally no coverage of the road whatsoever; 3: routine news reporting on heavy traffic, absolutely nothing on the road itself; 4: self-published source; 5: this is about localities near the road, not the road itself; 6: also covers sites near the road, not the road itself, again no coverage of the road whatsoever. Avilich (talk) 03:00, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I've done a search on Karnataka "SH 93" and also came up with [15], though it is hard to tell what the excerpt was saying. Also [16]. To counter some of the rebuttals, biodiversity of what the road runs through is certainly relevant, not just for understanding what the road is today but possibly for environmental impacts. Same with the cultural significance. --Rschen7754 19:03, 3 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:GEOROAD. You can't ignore a consensus just because you don't agree with it. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:24, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The consensus is not "All highways are automatically notable and entitled to a crap two-line article no matter what, end of story, you can't discuss anything about the poor sourcing or even consider a merge" (content already at List of state highways in Karnataka). Reywas92Talk 20:37, 7 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Same as above, GEOROAD doesn't confer intrinsic notability to roads. Avilich (talk) 01:41, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The main argument you made was that "typically" does not mean "typically". And GEOROAD does not give notability to all roads, but it does to all state highways unless there is some overriding reason why a particular state highway should not have it (which there is none in this case). --Rschen7754 17:44, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The main argument is that "typically" means "typically", not "always". The overriding reason is the lack of significant coverage, as detailed in the nutshell box in WP:NGEO. Avilich (talk) 21:02, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep It seems we are interpreting the guideline in different ways. My own reading of WP:GEOROAD leads me to believe that this state highway is notable. From the guideline: ...Interstate, national, state and provincial highways are typically notable. The guideline goes on to say significant coverage is required for "lesser roads".
