I am not entirely sure that this article meets our notability guidelines. The coverage in reliable sources seems sparse at best. I do not count the likes of salon.com among reputable sources an encyclopedia should be based upon. I struggle to find anything in national news, and what I do find hardly seems like in-depth coverage. Any input is appreciated. Surtsicna (talk) 17:53, 22 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Points to consider. Looks as if the sources satisfy GNG but that doesn't mean Wikipedia should have this as an article. The article content seems written in the style of a news report and may fall foul of Wikipedia is not a newspaper WP:NEWSPAPER. The article topic needs context to have encyclopedic merit. The only analysis of the case seems to be in blogs not in the newspaper articles presented (The Portland Herald is paywalled so unable to judge, therefore open to contradiction on this point).
Although the article is not a biography, I'm not sure Wikipedia is the place to publicise Strong's bowel problems, so on grounds of privacy, I'm wondering if anything in WP:BLP1E or such like applies here or whether because he's been convicted any privacy consideration is anulled. Rupples (talk) 02:35, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hey @Rupples, I went though and cleaned the article up and removed some of the content that wasn't really needed to move the article along. I reviewed other cases that cited this case and added the legal principles that cited this case (Constructive notice and De novo review). As for the privacy concerns that was something I did take into account. The only reason I felt publishing this article was acceptable was because the article covers the appeal case. I figured if you got sentenced for pooping in public it shouldn't be an article here even if it had significant coverage, these are real people and we should give them a bit of grace. But going forward with a multiple year legal appeal in federal court and being cited in other cases to support legal principles made it ok. Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 21:14, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Glad to see you're 'cleaning the article up':) Seriously, what might help here is a sub-heading on media reaction. I seem to recall in the sources, mention made of a 57-page judgment and criticism of the depth of this as a waste of taxpayers' money. Commentary on the case from uninvolved parties, as opposed to mere reporting, would likely overcome a 'Wikipedia is not a newspaper' argument. Rupples (talk) 23:18, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • ⚫Delete - Not Notable PaulGamerBoy360 (talk) 02:20, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - My goodness. In all my years as a lawyer, nothing has quite disgusted me as much as the facts of this article. Just putting it out there. Now, moving on to why I am !voting delete. I do not like to have court cases removed, and so I make this with a heavy heart. However ultimately this is an encyclopaedia. When we consider which court cases to write articles on, they need to meet WP:GNG. I am not really sure this article meets that standard. Yes, there is some coverage of the case. However we need to look into what is reported here. The question of law is not examined in the coverage, only the weird and disgusting facts. This case was not reported on because it had some legal merit or a serious question of law to be determined. It got attention because it is unique and yuck (ie newsworthy). Wikipedia is not a newspaper and I consider the coverage of this only to be related to news. It is not a significant case that has attracted (so far as I can tell) widespread attention from legal journals or been cited elsewhere by higher courts. It is a run of the mill case that got a few clicks because some may find it funny. Almost everything within the article is focused on the Facts of the case, and that to me is not notable. Analysis of the legal reasoning behind the decision is required for me to consider a case notable. I have omitted to create many articles for cases I've come across before due to this reason. MaxnaCarta (talk) 04:11, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with this analysis. The article currently focuses too much on a few attention-getting descriptions and quotes, rather than discussing the legal arguments underpinning the case...so it leaves readers with the question, "What's the point?" The few sources that do cover the case actually do mention legal reasoning on both sides (if very superficially), so I would strongly recommend going back and adding those points in. (What I have been struggling with all along though is whether this is really sufficient reason to !delete the article. For this reason, I am abstaining from !voting.) One further recommendation is to rename the article to something like United States v. Ronald J. Strong as there certainly seem to be quite a few other (more prominent) cases referred to as United States v. Strong...so I doubt the current article title will be stable long term. Cielquiparle (talk) 18:40, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Cielquiparle yeah, if it stays we should discuss a rename for sure. This is one AFD I actually regret reviewing. That case is putrid. Eurgh. MaxnaCarta (talk) 09:46, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Although there is some coverage, mainly because of the sh*t factor, this is hardly a significant legal case: it does not answer any difficult aspects of law and I cannot find where it has been cited as precedent. The only thing of interest here is the feces. Lamona (talk) 00:59, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The case meets WP:GNG. I see a variety of content objections here, but fundamentally the subject of the article has received significant coverage in reliable sources. Suriname0 (talk) 18:07, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I have been wondering if there are WP:BLP considerations here, even though the article is not a biography and even though the conviction was upheld, and even though Wikipedia is not censored. Even if the article is kept, does it really need to contain all this vivid detail? I would point out that the ABA Journal news article manages to summarize the key points of the case without overly WP:GRATUITOUS detail. I understand this issue is strictly speaking not a matter for AfD, yet I can't help feeling that it is the real reason there is such a strong objection to this article, so I thought it was worth raising here. Cielquiparle (talk) 01:40, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Update I've tightened up the article a bit to remove the extra unneeded material. Also I created a section that includes legal analysis. Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 04:23, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:HEY. (1) Fewer than 100 cases are decided by SCOTUS annually, so many Circuit cases are still notable. (2) Pardon the pun, but the crap has been cleaned up and a fairly clean start of an article remains. (3) Court cases are usually notable because they are precedents, but that's not the only reason. (4) This is a classic candidate for both WP:ODD and an April 1, 2024 article of the day. Bearian (talk) 14:10, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Unfortunately, the "Legal Analysis" section doesn't help. Yes, the Straker case is mentioned in the court proceedings but the transcript is a primary source. The comparison between the two cases needs to be commented on in a secondary reliable, independent source to help with notability.
Newspapers.com appears not to have page B6 of The Portland Herald of July 26, 2013 in its inventory — it may have helped here.
Not convinced by Bearian's reasoning. (edit: — seems tenuous.) Rupples (talk) 19:19, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If anyone wants to read the July 26, 2013 article in the Portland Press Herald I was able to find it on their website and it goes into more detail. Dr vulpes (💬 • 📝) 01:36, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Unable to come to a conclusion so remain neutral, however the article is 'improved' from when it was first put up in this AfD. Rupples (talk) 16:18, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep. While it is quite difficult to find coverage of the subject, the analysis done by Dr vulpes did indicate that some of the sources are legitimate enough to let this article pass WP:GNG. Policy-wise, there does not seem to be a reason for removal. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 02:10, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The references in English need improvement, but this artist is definitely notable in Israel, and the article in the Hebrew Wikipedia has more sources. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 10:25, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Lets examine your assertion for this WP:BLP. This has a single ref which is a PR interview. Lets look at the other references. Looking at the Hebrew Wikipedia , the article doesn't have a single reference. What it does have is lots of external links. They are not WP:SECONDARY sources.
  1. First one is IMDB. Is is non-rs.
  2. Second is Discogs. Non-rs
  3. Third is the Mooma social media site. Non-rs
  4. Fourth is bandcamp which is non-rs.
  5. Fifth is youtube social media link. Non-rs
  6. Sixth and sevenths are the same two references identified above.
  7. Eighth is another interview.

So not one secondary source amongst the lot of it. Typical of somebody that barely known. On youtube they subject only has 84 fans indication no social media presence.. The are non-notable. scope_creepTalk 10:41, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to List of bus routes in London.

    That a newspaper article has been written about this route is very much significant coverage. Garuda3 (talk) 07:37, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    MyLondon News is not what I would describe as significant coverage. Ajf773 (talk) 11:39, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It’s an established newspaper with a named journalist who went and rode the route. How is it not significant coverage? Garuda3 (talk) 14:23, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The article for MyLondon doesn't give me a lot of confidence that it is a well established newspaper, is it even in printed form? The depth of coverage is more the issue here, as its target audience appears to be localised to the city of London, with a big focus on general interest stories. Most notable bus routes have independent sources with a far greater depth of coverage, (i.e nationwide or international coverage / multiple ones too). The claim of notability rests solely on this single source. Coincidentally the same media source AND same named author has been used for soucing in other discussions: route 718 and 278. Ajf773 (talk) 10:59, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    “localised to the city of London” indeed, a city with five million residents. Thus this isn’t a hyper-local publication but instead one of interest to millions of people.
    There is no requirement for notable topics to have national coverage. Unsure how those other discussions are relevant here. Garuda3 (talk) 09:13, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment.

Thryduulf (talk) 09:41, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Thryduulf - would it be better to use some of the references from this article and copy them into a draft - perhaps Draft:Mobility buses in London?

    People have already made comments about you creating pages directly in mainspace, often with few or no sources. That's not an accusation, it's a fact. If you, perhaps a few others, work on it in draftspace first, that would be much better. Content which is deleted after 6 months can still be retrieved, don't forget.

    There is nothing that needs merging to List of bus routes in London. The list of bus routes contains standard information about each route, including this one. There is no place for undue extra information. However I am ok if anyone wants to merge content to an article or section relating to Mobility Buses in London.

    There is no place for undue extra information. yes there is, this article. Garuda3 (talk) 09:48, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not undue. In the unused notes field, it can be mentioned with the use of the references that this is the lowest frequency line. Plus, instead of the highest number (trivial and in the list understood in context), mention that this is the last remaining of what was a larger group of service lines. It would clarify why a bus that rides only twice a week has a unique hundreds prefix. If that already becomes too much just update the text above. In any case that would be wise to do. gidonb (talk) 22:45, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The best suggestion is the repurposing of the article under the title of "Mobility Buses in London" or such like, as put foward by Thryduulf. This would allow for the development of a more comprehensive article of encyclopedic merit. I can't envisage the article under its current narrowly focused heading, amounting to much more than the content already included. The only likely additional material will be on the route's closure. The suggestion is dependent, of course, on sourcing being located for the wider topic. (An article in The Times from 1992 states there are 80 Mobility routes in existence but regular services have no wheelchair access.) Rupples (talk) 03:46, 3 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The election is not WP:V and relies on WP:FUTURE way too much. Wiki is WP:NOTNEWS and it seems that this article has received very little news coverage from traditional media as is.

  • Keep Because it's WP:V that the election is on November 7, and has been covered in depth by the Des Moines Register, Axios, and all sorts of local affiliates[4][5] Poor article quality is not a reason for article deletion, and your FEC point is nonsensical.

    It's a good thing I didn't cite poor article quality and a I see that you took one point out of the nomination to make a political judgment on. Please let me know how this article is notable at all. The The Des Moines Register has a small circulation and is approximately 19% of the population.

    Why would I point out more notable sources when you're trying to shoot down the paper of record for Iowa? You're acting like I found the only four sources that exist, and there aren't any others? – Muboshgu (talk) 00:37, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It is a local election of no importance. There are only four sources on the article. I would love to see more sources that prove notability and verifiability, however, I can't see any unless they are on the article. I mentioned the little circulation of the Register to mention that is largely a local paper that has little readership even in its own city. Why would you not want to provide a more reliable source?

  • Delete This article is not notable in any sort of way and not worthy of a standalone article. This is not covered in depth whatsoever, 4 sources are hardly "in-depth" at all.

  • Draftify (although as I've said in other recent AfD's, reluctantly because I think local electoral coverage should be considered meeting SIGCOV as I argued in the AfD example here) per the consensus established at the 2023 Carmel mayoral deletion discussion. Per WP:EVENTCRIT, this election hasn't established national coverage or any kind of lasting effect from it, and it is a routine mayoral election. We won't know if it will reach that threshold until after the election is finished, and can be re-created if it does, but for now, it fails to meet the mark.

  • Weak keep. Finding sources for Kannada films of the early 2000s is a difficult task. Per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Annavru (2003 film), Viggy can be considered as a reliable source for older Kannada films (since the writers are hired and the articles are entirely about the film). This source from August 2003 claims that the film was still running (the film released in May 2003). If someone can help navigate the Deccan Herald archives, we can search for a review.

  • Delete Sorry, but as noted in the last deletion discussion, this is just not feasible. It's not that there isn't such a thing as a rolling number of currently recognized genera present during the Cambrian (see e.g. [6]) but the number is easily in excess of 1000, subject to lots of interpretation, and not realistically curatable on Wikipedia. And in this respect, the See Also section gives me the shivers. Covering 240k genera in this manner is not going to happen. Let's not go there. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 07:37, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom and Elmidae; and like Elmidae, that See Also section terrifies me. You might get away with making lists of genera by, say, an Age (geology) or biozone, but not a whole geologic period. --SilverTiger12 (talk) 19:16, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. As many adults know, the amount of work put into a project is not proportional to its usefulness or notability. In this case, making a list of every small genera (many barely attested) about the Cambrian Explosion is akin to making a list of every Congressman ever elected since 1788, or every battle recorded in history. Technically, each is notable, but a list of these sizes is unwieldy and not useful (or even misleading) for our core readership. What's worse, is creating red links for other eras, epochs, and periods; it's a classic high school freshman mistake to assume that all such periods of time are of equal length and importance. Thus this is better suited as a category, rather than a list. I'm very sorry, but we are not a web host for a science project. I have taught science at the secondary level for six years now, and I can assure you that there are many other places on the Internet for this sort of list, as noted above.

    The article points out that this was the worst autumn snowstorm (in terms of amounts of snow falling) in southern Sweden on record since measurings began in 1905. The sources include three media outlets (two national, major ones; one regional) looking back at the storm 10, 22 and 25 years later, respectively. /Julle (talk) 00:04, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It may be the worst in terms of snowfall, but is otherwise not notable. All of the references being Swedish clearly shows it wasn't widely covered outside of the country, and if it was, that needs to be added to the article. greyzxq talk 00:25, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    For an event in 1995, this means nothing at all either way. We have no news coverage from the time included in the article, from Sweden or elsewhere, as it largely predates online news. One is a report originally published on paper and later digitalized, and the other articles are written long after the storm (pointing to the lasting duration of the coverage). But most importantly, Wikipedia:Notability (events) expliclitly asks for "significant national or international coverage", so I really don't see what the problem would be according to our own guidelines. My interpretation is that WP:GNG and WP:Notability (events) are met in the current state of the article. /Julle (talk) 01:35, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    The notability guidelines specifically say "significant coverage", which there isn't for this topic, at least not in the article. A simple Google search for "1995 Sweden storm" comes up with nothing. As I have already said, anyone reading this article would think that it was just a normal storm which caused traffic and closures. Again, if that isn't the case more information needs to be added with sources to make the article notable. greyzxq talk 02:26, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Significant coverage, not only at the time when it completely dominated the news but also later, like this article in Jönköpings-Posten commemorating the event 25 years later. I've also added a piece from TV4 made 22 years after the event to the article. /Julle (talk) 19:04, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    A simple Google search for "1995 Sweden storm" comes up with nothing, so if there is significant coverage it needs to be shown in the article. greyzxq talk 11:33, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Owula kpakpo, I agree with you. Fellow @Versace1608, your feedback about sources is fine and can be improved but your comment 'The subject doesn't have a career to speak of. Being a tiktoker and winning a non-notable award are not enough to warrant a stand-alone article.' is very harsh and unjustified.
You can make your comment without attacks. If your view on 'not being a career' is anything to go by, then the following TikTokers should be removed from Wikipedia. For example, Khabane Lame, Charli D'Amelio, Bella Poarch, Addison Rae, MrBeast, Zach King, etc.
Kindly state which Wikipedia's notability clauses have been violated, This is a learning process. In a nutshell, I vote that this article should be kept and its secondary sources improved. Thank you. Uprising Man (talk) 23:37, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Saying that "The subject doesn't have a career to speak of" is unnecessarily disrespectful. The nominator appears to suggest that social media influencer isn't a "real" career. We're here to discuss whether or not her biography merits inclusion in this encyclopedia; our opinions about the meaningfulness of her source of income are irrelevant. pburka (talk) 00:05, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Pburka: How is it "unnecessarily disrespectful"? I am simply pointing out the obvious. She does not have a career in the Tiktok field and is only known as a tiktoker, that's all. She has not been discussed in reliable sources. Can you show me where I suggested that social media influencer isn't a real career? Please do not make false allegations against me. I have already said the subject fails WP:GNG, WP:CREATIVE, and WP:ANYBIO.  Versace1608  Wanna Talk? 00:41, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Are you claiming that she's not actually a social media influencer? Challenging the truth of the biography is quite different than challenging the subject's notability. pburka (talk) 01:07, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    WTH man? Did I tell you that she is not a social media influencer? Stop what you're doing. You do not need to comment on this AFD if you don't have anything meaningful to add.  Versace1608  Wanna Talk? 01:32, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    So we agree that she has a career as a social media influencer. I request that you withdraw your statement that "The subject doesn't have a career to speak of." It's disrespectful to the subject. pburka (talk) 01:37, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    @Pburka you're right. Nominating an article for deletion with such comments as such defeats the purpose of nomination for deletion. This sounds more of a personality attack rather than a logical reason to clean up Wikipedia.
    @Versace1608 don't shy from accepting your mistake in making an unfriendly comment on this space. I agree with you about improving the article with more secondary sources but your comment about her career isn't worth it. To err is human.

  • Keep as there is sufficient coverage per WP:BASIC, which allows us to stitch together the non-interview portions of the many articles about her in reliable secondary sources (*excluding* all the gossip columns), such as this Adom Online article which states that most of its viewers/readers in Ghana have heard of her (regardless of whether or not they use TikTok), and the Pulse Ghana articles, including the one when she won the 2021 award for TikTok Influencer of the Year, which also notes her large following at the time. Wikipedia articles about social media influencers are often hard to assess, but this one seems to have enough meaningful coverage; it's fine for the article to be short and sweet; and WP:IDONTLIKEIT is not a sufficient reason to delete.

    Keep I have stated my reasons in other comments on this page. Simply get more secondary sources and nothing stops the nominator from improving the article. It can be short and sweet as @Cielquiparle puts it.

Also, I've stated my stance on the comment about she being a tiktoker not a career. Such a comment is 'unfriendly' and sounds more of a personality attack rather than a logical reason to clean up Wikipedia. Uprising Man (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 23:41, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm leaning weak keep. There is at least one really substantial article about her (YEN), and a number of shorter ones. I do not know anything about Ghana so I cannot judge how her coverage compares to other celebrities. I default to "keep" based on that. Lamona (talk) 01:30, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, and I should add: the "Pulse influencer award" seems to be only 3 years old, so it needs some time before it gains a reputation as a "signficant award."
  • Keep. Ample coverage in reliable sources to meet GNG. The "doesn't have a career to speak of" comment by the nominator is demonstrably false and not actually a requirement for notability. Sources have been added to the article since the nomination, but the original claim that only one of the sources was independent of her was misleading. While some of the articles included quotes from the subject or were accompanied by interviews, they predominantly consist of prose written about the subject. gobonobo + c 22:46, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

But none of this is present in the article, which is just an unreferenced plot summary like now, so a redirect to the list of episodes is fine too unless someone fixes the article by adding those sources. Until that happens, the article does not meet our policies and a soft delete via redirecting might be a temporary solution until someone decides to make it policy-compliant (If kept but not improved, I suggest tagging this with {{sources exist}}). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:20, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect - The article has no sources, and searches do not turn up any significant coverage outside of fansites/wikis. The only stuff I can find outside of that are things like books that simply list all of the episodes without any coverage beyond that. Honestly, I think that this should be used as a redirect to House on Haunted Hill rather than to Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased), since its extremely likely that most searches using this title will actually be looking for that movie. At the very least, a hatnote should be added to the Randall and Hopkirk article directing readers to the movie's article, if we do wind up using the TV show as the redirect target. Rorshacma (talk) 17:44, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to House on Haunted Hill, which is a much more likely intended target for anyone searching or linking to the name. Even if it's decided to keep the article, I would strongly recommend moving it to The House on Haunted Hill (Randall and Hopkirk) and making The House on Haunted Hill redirect to House on Haunted Hill. The absence of sourcing and lack of meaningful content beyond what's covered in the article for the show make this an obvious choice for a redirect. In the unlikely event that the article subject achieves greater notability or a surfeit of sources turn up, it's easy enough to restore the article when and if that happens.--Martin IIIa (talk) 01:02, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

At the previous afd (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Open Site) in 2007, the article was kept on the grounds that seem to me mostly WP:ATA type arguments (e.g: It is important, That it will be notable in the future, we have articles on less notable things, etc).

  • Likely keep: I'd like additional clarity on this bit of GNG, but I think we have a procedural keep: "Politicians ... who have held ... state/province–wide office, or have been members of legislative bodies at those levels". The Stockholm Regional Council is a regional-scale body that appears to fill the role that the province does here in Canada. For instance, the region handles health care, which is a provincial responsibility here. I can't claim to fully understand the unitary state system in Sweden, but it appears these regions are effectively a way to have provincial-style governance within the unitary state. If my understanding is correct, I believe this meets GNG as a member of that legislative body. Maury Markowitz (talk) 18:32, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    As Sweden is not a federal state, Swedish county legislators are not presumed notable via WP:NPOL in the same way an American or Indian state legislator would. There is just a fundamental difference in authority and powers. As usual, just because he does not pass NPOL does not preclude him from passing via standard GNG.

Maury Markowitz, To quote WP:NSUBPOL, which for full transparency is an explanatory essay, This [referring to subnational legislatures in federal nations] is in contrast to bodies, such as municipal councils, whose power is limited to administrative, supervisory or regulatory functions. Generally speaking, federal political systems devolve legislative powers to lower, subnational levels (such as a state or province), whereas unitary political systems do not, with legislative power concentrated at the national level.

    Hi! Thank you @Shushugah: and @TipsyElephant: Please note. I made this comment on the previous draftified version and did not receive a response.

    Citation to reference to Multitude produced “Pale Blue Pod” by the New Yorker.
    Citation to AV Club review of Multitude produced and hosted show “Spirits” episode.
    Citation to Polygon article re: Join the Party podcast
    Citation to “Games and Feelings” via Lifehacker

    Reference in The Verge re: Hot Pod Summit
    Further: Multitude is and was mentioned at the time of initial submission in articles at Netflix, WFMT (studs Terkel), WBUR in Boston, NPR’s flagship station. These sources sufficiently meet WP:INDEPENDENT and did exist previously prior to the article being moved to the draft space. These seem to have been overlooked.

    • The New Yorker "Pale Blue Pod" does not even mention Multitude, and even if it did, it wouldn't help establish notability.
    • The other sources are similarly...promo, and not in depth about Multitude collective. If a specific podcast show is notable, that can be an article itself, but showing that it merely exists in real life (I have no doubt about that) is not the same thing as extensive coverage. Please share the two single best article that discuss Multitude specifically.

Eritrea does not have a free press, so these topics may not be written about there very much. Warnings by the embassy such as this one are also to be expected.

There was previous discussion on this matter, with no consensus. I'm re-opening as the article currently has no sources at all. The "article" at https://www.alkistisdimech.com/words/the-witches-dance claims to have been published in The Brazen Vessel, which I could not verify. It is by no means a reliable source, since there is no indication of any editorial oversight. Other sources have been discarded for similar reasons in past discussion.

Unfortunately just like Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jun Kazama and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Phoenix (Tekken), Lili also has the same problem. Zero WP:SIGCOV and most of the coverage were just only announcements on Tekken 8 and nothing else. This source is also trivia [11]. The design section sources were game guides and passing mention of Lili with the only one genuine source about out her minor controversy in Australia. GlatorNator () 13:14, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: I was actually about starting to work on this one. I recently added this to the article as a real life example. Then here's one piece I found discussing the controversy behind her sex appeal (particularly due to her being under 18), which I have yet to add to the article. Then there's the article from GamesRadar that discusses her, along with Dragunov. We also have this, which while an announcement of her in Tekken 8, goes into more than just a routine announcement. And since Lili is probably the second-most popular female character in Tekken after Nina Williams, I'm holding the benefit of the doubt she has more as well. MoonJet (talk) 20:05, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Most of the sources that you've shown were trivial/passing mention, meanwhile the Lili cosplay thing as martial arts is situational into unreliable (cannot be used for notability). I'm not sure why you kept repeating that statement "Lili is probably the second-most popular female character in Tekken. I'm holding the benefit of the doubt she has more as well". Look at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anna Williams (Tekken), she is more popular than Lili and yet she fails notability.
    GlatorNator () 21:57, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't agree that these are trivial. Lili is a major focus in the GamesRadar source, and that source on her controversy is specifically about her.
    What made you conclude that The Paradise is situational?
    How about these cosplay sources?

  • Merge to List of Tekken characters. Sorry, but, no - all those sources seem super trivial and this is an obvious failure of GNG. This is an article made to promote a character and desperately seeking sources, not an article made in response to sources existing about a well-known character. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 21:35, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to List of Tekken characters - The sources currently in the article and presented in this AFD are a mess of listicles, unreliable sources, and routine reporting on game/product announcements (i.e. character reveals). And, obviously pictures of someone cosplaying as the character is not valid coverage. The closest that comes to genuine coverage is the minor controversary the character caused in Australia, and I'm not finding much about that outside of that one article.

As you may or may not know, it has a strong connection to Superior University, which is already recognized as a notable institution. And now, their collaborative project NFT Meta Market has secured the 1st Runner Up position in the IT, Cyber, and E-commerce Sector category at the Grand Finale of National Idea Bank held at Sir Syed University of Engineering and Technology.
This achievement shows that Superior College is not just any college, but a notable one that produces graduates who are capable of making significant contributions to the technology industry.

I would have continued to work on a draft after it was rejected by but that was not an option. I have added more sources using the search link that is provided in the deletion flag. The current "notability" standards are not sufficient for a streaming music society. Because the streaming platforms do not share total streams in a similar method to radio stations artists that are not associated with established record companies are held to a higher standard than those that are signed but have a smaller fan base.

AllyD (talk) 12:28, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I have expanded the article to provide a summary reflecting the history of the Eldorado. More could surely be said about the performers there, but for the moment I included famous artworks by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Walter Sickert; a performance there by Félix Mayol may also be reflected in Proust: all of these perhaps fall under WP:NOTINHERITED but indicate the Eldorado's cultural position in its era. Anyway, the French Culture Ministry's "Patrimoine du XXe siècle" designation of the later building (apparently somewhere between Blue plaque and Listed building status in the UK?) seems sufficient to demonstrate notability under WP:NBUILD criterion 1.

Recently deleted I am going to paraphrase Spiderone's nominating statement, since this is almost identical to the article which was deleted: "Neither of the three references demonstrate significant coverage per WP:SPORTBASIC and WP:GNG. Would have passed WP:NFOOTBALL prior to 2022 but that and WP:FPL are no longer relevant so articles must contain significant coverage. Best sources found in WP:BEFORE were The Inner Sanctum, I'm not sure if this is WP:RS or not and he is only mentioned twice in passing, Football NSW, which mentions him in passing as a goalscorer, and The Football Sack, which mentions him once, saying that he made his debut. None of the above sources contain any detailed coverage of Windust. An Australian search only yielded the usual database sites which are not acceptable for SPORTBASIC." There was also a brief discussion on the talk page. But still zero in-depth independent sources. Onel5969 TT me 10:39, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would also recommend SALT due to the article being recreated multiple times and the previous AfD consensus not being respected (see here).

  • Keep: The sources provide significant coverage, with one going into full detail on the character, and the other sources are from print, including two full page articles dedicated to the character.

Simply saying "this magazine mentioned her" does not demonstrate there is substantive discussion on the character. Nor was any attempt made to gain consensus there before recreating the article, suggesting it was largely motivated by a desire to "push through" a standalone page, with the edit summary expressing knowledge that it was likely non-notable and creating it anyway. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 12:24, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This is a company therefore GNG/WP:NCORP requires at least two deep or significant sources with each source containing "Independent Content" showing in-depth information *on the company*. "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. In plain English, this means that references cannot rely *only* on information provided by the company - such as articles that rely entirely on quotations, press releases, announcements, interviews, website information, etc - even when slightly modified. If it isn't *clearly* showing independent content then it fails ORGIND. Here, the references are simply regurgitating company announcements and have no "Independent Content" in the form of independent analysis/fact checking/opinion/etc. I'd invite any of the Keep !voters above to indicate the particular paragraphs in whatever sources meet CORPDEPTH/ORGIND.

    • This Hindu article is based on an announcement of having raised funding, no "Independent Content", fails ORGIND
    • This India Express article is another regurgitated announcement about how a former cricketer, Dhoni, invested in the "start-up" company and become their brand ambassador. Fails ORGIND

    • India Times also publishing info directly provided by the company/CEO. NICFO.
    • Another Hindu, same result, NICFO.
    • Another Government Press Release. NICFO.
    • New Indian Express article based on interviewing a young student drone pilot who works with the topic company. Also features the mandatory interview with the CEO. NICFO
    • WION article where the company talks about looking forward to being a Unicorn one day. NICFO
    • Tech Circle article based entirely on a company announcement. NICFO
While I think the topic company's PR department are doing a great job and the CEO is wheeled out at every opportunity, Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion. The only people talking about this company are themselves. Recent analyst research reports into the Drone market in India either do not mention the company or do not provide sufficient in-depth information on the company. A case of WP:TOOSOON at best.

This is going to seem a bit ironic, given the article's claims, but this does not appear to meet WP:GNG, WP:NWEB or other relevant SNGs. The included sources are a couple of TechCrunch articles and an archived primary blog post. Source search has not been productive, but that may be due to the name being ambiguous (searching for "golden.com" in quotes mostly yields results from the site itself, and a few unrelated hits)

That aside, this article reads more like a pitch for the site than an encyclopedic article. It was successfully PRODed before claiming lack of notability. ASUKITE 02:30, 22 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Only non-self sources are Techcrunch, which WP:RSP mentions is questionable for establishing notability. It's also worth noting here that one of the Techcrunch sources mentions that a former editor at Techcrunch was heading Golden's research team, which would compromise the independence of Techcrunch sources. - MrOllie (talk) 21:49, 22 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not every TV episode needs an article, especially one that there are no RS reviews for. This TV series doesn't have an individual article for every episode, so that arguement for inclusion is invalid. In addition, the plot is already covered in the article on the show.

  • Comment - FYI User:Donaldd23, this was the 100th episode anniversary. I've not looked, but given this was a flagship programme for the network at that time; and one of the most popular shows in the nation, with huge ratings, and frequent independent media coverage. I'd be very surprised if there wasn't significant media coverage of the 100th episode. Did you do a full BEFORE here? Also, I've asked before - but why wouldn't an episode title of such a huge show always be a redirect? Nfitz (talk) 20:57, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I did a BEFORE, and I did not find any reviews for this particular episode. Being the 100th episode is, indeed, a milestone, but unless there are reviews or even articles that mention it as a significant episode based on it's broadcast number, I felt a DELETE would be the best option. However, I would be open to a REDIRECT if that is what the consensus is. DonaldD23 talk to me 22:20, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    You found nothing? In Proquest? I found incidental mentions about the 100th episode six-months ahead of time (while checking something else). And of course, I remember there was media coverage at the time. I'd rather not waste time looking for what we all know will be found. I remain concerned about your deletions of Canadian TV shows - I'm not sure you have the basic awareness of that topic to be editing in the area - or at least evaluating notability. Nfitz (talk) 23:52, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I think you answered why I nominated this for deletion. You said, "I found incidental mentions". Remember, to pass notability guidelines there needs to be significant, indepth coverage. "incidental mentions" are not that. So, yes, I did see small blurbs in my search, but have yet to find any indepth coverage which is needed. And, then your statement about remembering coverage and then saying you won't waste your time...that is not a reasonable arguement for keep. You must provide proof that there was coverage, and supply it yourself...not pass it off with some crystal ball statment that others will find it. Remember, WP:DIY.
    I found incidental mentions in other stuff without even looking for something from the year that this was broadcast. I have no doubt I can find in-depth coverage - but it's just such an odd and time-wasting nomination - and I'd sooner do my taxes right now. Please don't twist my words.
    Also, I consider your comments about my "basic awareness" to be WP:PERSONALATTACKS, which are not allowed. I suggest you strike those comments. DonaldD23 talk to me 11:38, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Almost all of the nominations I see from you in the Canada Wikiproject fail. I don't think wondering about your familiarity with Canadian culture is a personal attack, given you have nominated high-profile shows in the past, and just nominated a major episode of one of the biggest prime-time shows ever. How long have you lived here? I certainly don't mean it to be personal. Nfitz (talk) 18:13, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I still implore you to find sources that would justify keeping this article. All your arguments are basically 'I remember coverage, but I don't wanna prove it right now' and 'almost all of your nominations fail so this one must too'. How can you not want to "waste your time" finding sources to keep this article, but you have found the time to reply to this discussion by countering every delete/redirect comment. You stated your opinion, you basically edited my comment above by inserting your comment within it (which is not how it's supposed to be done), and you denied performing what I perceived as a personal attack against me. Let the process work...if sources are found that keeps the article, great. If not, it should be deleted or redirected. DonaldD23 talk to me 18:35, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Because it takes time and work to do a proper BEFORE; something that we've established you haven't done in the past; and clearly haven't done here, nominating 5 different articles within 6 minutes. Throwing AFDs against the wall to see what sticks isn't a BEFORE. Nfitz (talk) 20:00, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • Again...BEFOREs don't need to be done immediately before I nominate. I do a batch of BEFOREs and then go and nominate the articles, improve the article and remove the notability tags, or do nothing because I didn't find enough to either improve or delete. Where is the policy that I am breaking by listing these deletions all at once? Maybe you cannot do research on multiple items and then come back to Wikipedia and present your findings, but I can. Your rationale for Keep is incorrect. Maybe you should do a BEFORE and check my talk page where I have been THANKED for doing proper BEFOREs.

I do remain concerned though why you'd think that the 100th episode of one of the biggest and longest-running shows in the nation wouldn't be notable. And now I've finished my taxes, I'll try and dig deeper. Nfitz (talk) 07:12, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    User:TimothyBlue, how is a review in a major newspaper - one from the largest newspaper in the country, promotional? These are regular writers, and if you search Proquest, you'll also find the CNW press releases that were made - that are very, very short compared to the articles. The press release is only 240 words, covering two programs, and (unsurprising there's more devoted to Corner Gas than Degrassi; the press release says little more than "the date not only marks the conclusion of its fifth and most successful season to date, but marks the 100th episode of the series"; and are clearly not the basis for any of the GNG articles - ProQuest 455376916.

In particular, the Sydney Morning Herald is a syndicated copy of the Reuters, and quite brief. I would expect to find book reviews for WP:NAUTHOR, but none were apparent. The best case for notability is with WP:NPROF C1. I think that this subarea does not have such low citations, and that the citation record is below the impact we are looking for.

I recently nominated this article for WP:PROD. User:Elli has requested that this proceed by AfD instead, so here is the rationale I provided on PROD:

Per WP:CORPDEPTH, there does not appear to be any significant coverage of this organization. All references appear to be trivial (i.e., to their predictions, rather than to coverage of the organization qua organization). (See also User:NewsAndEventsGuy's post here).

I look forward to your thoughts. voorts (talk/contributions) 01:48, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • I disagree with CORPDEPTH being the relevant standard here; this article is about a website so Wikipedia:Notability (web) (and particularly WP:WEBCRIT) is more relevant. Not sure if this meets that, though, and I don't have the time to conduct a search for sources right now. Elli (talk | contribs) 01:59, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I think CORPDEPTH applies because they operate out of the University of Virginia and have employees.
    But, even if NWEB does apply, I think the article fails because it's WP:INHERENTWEB for the reason stated above: it's oft-cited, but WP:ENN and I can't find any WP:SIGCOV. voorts (talk/contributions) 02:14, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Given how frequently-cited this is; it's worth considering whether deletion of the page really serves the project, even if it doesn't strictly meet our notability guidelines (which are only guidelines, not policy that must be strictly enforced). This is linked in many articles as a source of a rating for a particular race; and clearly that usage is endorsed by many news outlets such as the New York Times frequently citing them for prognostication.

  • Weak keep There are definitely news articles covering the site's ratings but not sure they rise to the level of GNG: [27], [28], [29], [30]. As Elli notes, the site is very frequently cited, so I am sure there are other examples. Not opposed to merging with Larry Sabato either. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 19:42, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
     Comment: Good suggestion RE merging with Larry Sabato. voorts (talk/contributions) 21:16, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect: I think a better target is the parent organization, University of Virginia Center for Politics, rather than to Sabato himself, as there is much more room for expansion than in a biographical article. Not in favor of merging as there is nothing currently in the article to merge; the article's current state is a biennual ticker of how right they are, not any meaningful critical coverage of the organization itself. Curbon7 (talk) 02:11, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    I think that some of the content might be relevant; for example, the most recent predictions might meet meet notability criteria. In any event, if this goes the redirect route, I think the newsletter is probably more notable for being Sabato's means of disseminating election prognostications, not for its affiliation with the Center. voorts (talk/contributions) 02:40, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Larry_Sabato#Sabato's Crystal Ball where information about the newsletter is found. I do agree with others that there does not seem to be much substantive coverage about the newsletter outside of the predictions. --Enos733 (talk) 05:33, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Larry_Sabato#Sabato's Crystal Ball, and merge any relevant content there. I agree with others who've commented above that the subject falls short of the notability bar needed to warrant a standalone page, and that the section in Sabato article is the most appropriate target for redirecting.

Embassy of Turkey, Singapore[edit]

Fails GNG. Sources in article are statements from the embassy, and do not address the subject - the embassy. BEFORE showed statements from the embassy, but nothing about the embassy itself from independent reliable sources.

I am also nominating the following related pages Embassy of Turkey, Asmara (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

No objection to redirects to List of diplomatic missions of Turkey.  // Timothy :: talk  01:46, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Following with GNG, Embassy of the United States, Asmara should be deleted as well. However the article stands to this day. Katakana546 (talk) 13:12, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - While it appears that Moreira appeared in over 100 league matches for Belenenses during the 1950s, there is simply no online coverage that suggests this can satisfy WP:GNG. He has a common name (there is a living Portuguese futsal player and a manager that get some coverage, although nothing in-depth), and I accidentally pulled some in-depth coverage for Francisco Moreira (who played in the 1940s) which crystallizes my opinion that if Raúl Moreira were actually notable, we could find something suggesting SIGCOV online now.

  • Keep - I found [31] among more Spanish sources. Definitely has many offline sources, having played in fully pro Paraguayan top flight for years and played for Paraguay national team during the pre-internet era, and the fact that there are articles about him like above decades after his retirement show he was once a significant figure in Paraguayan football. Article needs improvement, not deletion. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 17:51, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sources are hard to get hold of due to the period and place where he played but a quick search in Spanish shows that he played at the top flight of Paraguayan football for about 10 years and has at least 1 league title to his name. He appears to have played for Club Olimpia in the Copa Libertadores in 1993 and 1994 and there are likely to be newspaper reports on those, especially since Olimpia reached the semis in 94 and only lost on penalties.

WP:BLP states "Be very firm about the use of high-quality sources"'; BLPs need IS RS with SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth for both content and notability per well known core policy (WP:V and WP:BLP) and guidelines (WP:BIO and WP:IS, WP:RS, WP:SIGCOV).  // Timothy :: talk  09:59, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
