Lacks WP:SIGCOV. Could not find any references mentioning it other than a company of the same name, which is a primary source. Kstern (talk) 17:31, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, agreed with the SIGCOV notion. There are two few mentions of this in RS'es. I chime in for a deletion. TY

  • Weak keep There is this mention of the company (see the upper left corner of the page) [1] and this near the upper right of the page [2] and I found this, talking about the cheese market [3]. Oaktree b (talk) 22:41, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    my issue with that (in the same way as I said) are it seems like its named Cuba cheese after the place in Upstate NY, and not Cuba in terms of a unique cultural item. That is why I am voting delete, there is no coverage that I can even draw besides "there happens to be cheese factories here". I mean even basic American Cheese or Colby-Jack have huge information that you can casually find. Ask me about air Cryogenic air (talk) 23:11, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Could possibly merge to Cuba, New York, it seems important enough to be mentioned somehow. Oaktree b (talk) 01:20, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge with Cuba, New York: There is a little bit of content on the Cuba, NY page about cheese production in Cuba. Merge content to explain what the term means. I'm fine with a redirect as well if closer or other participants find the content on the page isn't worth merging. TartarTorte 18:46, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm fine with moving the image over, but the (single sentence of) content ought to be verifiable before merging. Same goes for a redirect. The content in Cuba, New York#Cheese is already unsourced. We shouldn't make it worse. I can find no evidence of a product called "Cuba cheese". Kstern (talk) 19:49, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I've added citations to the Cuba, New York#Cheese section. I'm fine redirecting instead of merging if it's determined nothing, other than the picture, is worthwhile having in the Cuba, New York article. TartarTorte 21:31, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge or redirect without prejudice. "Cuba cheese" is not a distinct variety of cheese, but the Cuba cheese industry is very much a notable historical concept, which it makes best sense to cover in the subsection Cuba, New York#Cheese for now. Surely the Cuba Cheese Museum is ripe for a WP:GLAM collaboration!--Pharos (talk) 16:02, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't an encyclopedia article. It reads like a bio on his employer's website. And while I'm aware that deletion isn't cleanup, my search didn't turn up convincing evidence of WP:SIGCOV anyway. LEPRICAVARK (talk) 23:16, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Draftify or TNT this mess. I think he probably is notable based on the coverage I find, but wow this looks like a website bio. Oaktree b (talk) 01:39, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete the subject is notable, but the article as written sure doesn't look like NPV or COI or such. Draftify is a good option for an enthusiastic editor to re-write. If someone wants to get super-enthusiastic and edit it right now that could make a difference. I would prefer editing over deletion, but I prefer deletion over nothing.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:20, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify although a complete rewrite would be necessary so maybe WP:TNT. Best, GPL93 (talk) 18:51, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify. The subject has been the athletic director at three Division I programs (Iowa State, Utah State, and Louisiana Tech) and is thus likely to have SIGCOV sufficient to pass GNG. That said, Lepricavark's comments about the state of the article raise valid concerns. Draftification will allow time for the article to be brought up to snuff (including addition of actual SIGCOV), should anyone care to undertake that effort. (Current citations to the Louisiana Tech and Iowa State web sites are not independent and therefore do not count toward GNG.) Cbl62 (talk) 04:17, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify: This is not written in a way that should remain in main space. The subject passes GNG but it needs a major rewrite. Hey man im josh (talk) 21:46, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify. Aside from the verbatim copy-paste from his employer's website that was included in the article, this really does fail WP:BLP sourcing standards to such an extent that draftification is warranted. This looks like COI editing, and draftification is warranted per WP:DRAFTIFY#5. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 21:51, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify I see coverage exists for an article, but in the present state, the article is not ready. Since this is the second AfD the article should be sent to draft and then it should be submitted through WP:AFC before a return to main space. Bruxton (talk) 15:13, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    The new sources provided do not meet general notability guidelines still. YouTube is both unreliable and the link provided is primary, which fails the independent from subject criteria. IMDB is independent, but per WP:IMDB, it is generally unreliable due to the fact it is user generated. The Shadow and Act source looks reliable, is independent, but does not significantly cover the subject. --Harobouri🎢 • 🏗️ (he/him) 03:26, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Article about former footballer which comprehensively fails WP:GNG. The only online coverage is incredibly trivial stuff like [5].

It could have gone back on the wheel last time but escaped. As for analysing what is available, soccerway which extensively coverages a huge array of players shows us 2 games back in 2012-13 and that hardly helps any player with so little football past his career to show anything beyond WP:ROUTINE.

Searching is hopeless with 5M-plus GHits even with the county included, but maps and aerials show nothing except a small area which doesn't appear to belong to the surrounding federal land. No evidence for notability. Mangoe (talk) 19:54, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Lots of false positives is all I found at Google search and Google Books Elinruby (talk) 11:02, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. The location definitely is an actual name for a place (see map), but looking at an aerial view I really don't see any evidence of inhabited structures in the area. I see a cable cut for high-voltage wires that ends about where Lancaster is, but merely having a cable cut does not suffice for WP:NGEO. It's quite remote, with two dirt forest roads being the only ways in or out, so I very much doubt that it is currently inhabited. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 18:00, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    It's also listed in the 1987 National Gazetteer as a "locale", but I'm doubtful that meets the threshold of "legally recognized populated place". I will keep looking. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 18:25, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Here's the USGS map from 2014, which contains Lancaster. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 18:29, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that. Google gets hung up on Edwards Air Force. Can you tell if that's between I-40 and the Grand Canyon? By eyeballing the map, I think so. If so it's in a national forest, so we can quit looking for settlements. I am also quite certain (which is OR and anecdotal, yes) that it does not have an exit off I-40. Elinruby (talk) 18:47, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Scratch that, it's south of Flagstaff in the Pine Mountain Wilderness. Only been through there once, on the interstate, but based on Google Maps, it's on a forest road that looks like it probably closes in the winter, so I am strongly inclined to say there is no settlement there. Elinruby (talk) 18:54, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's in the Tonto National Forest and near the Coconino National Forest, per the USGS map. If you see the location where I-17 intersects with State Route 69 and head due East until the edge of the county, you'll see it labeled on the state land management map. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 18:55, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. While this is definitely a named locale, I see no evidence of WP:SIGCOV an no evidence that this is a legally recognized populated place after conducting a search for sources. While it exists in GNIS, GNIS is unreliable for feature classes, and it plainly appears to be wrong regarding the feature class in this case. There is nowhere reasonable to merge this to and no place to redirect this to; no article appears to cover this locale on Wikipedia, while the coverage in sources appears to be entirely maps and GNIS-sourced Gazetteers. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 18:58, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    The point of our notability guidelines is to make sure we can write a meaningful article on our subject, not to arbitrarily exclude things because they're "not notable enough". How does having this article do a disservice to our readers? It collects relevant information that otherwise would be scattered across multiple other articles.

Plaid Cymru, Green Party, Common Ground[edit]

Judging by the name this article has been created under, it suggests it's been created by someone from either Plaid Cymru or the Wales Green Party. The Common Ground Alliance was created to field joint candidates in a 2022 local election. I looked myself at the time, to try and find something more than the one Wales Online news article, whether the alliance was notable enough for its own article and decided it wasn't. There's a redirect (Common Ground Alliance) which points to the paragraph in the 2022 Cardiff Council election article. My opinion is that the alliance isn't notable enough for its own Wikipedia article, hence this AfD nomination. Sionk (talk) 17:31, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sionk
I created the article so that ward results on other pages could successfully reference the alliance. As it stood all other parties had links to their party pages, while Common Ground candidates could not. MeurigRogers (talk) 17:36, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I've added a citation to the BBC report of the initial announcement. It is worth noting that the alliance is ongoing, and both councillors sit as Common Ground councillors. MeurigRogers (talk) 17:51, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The link in the election results worrks well using Common Ground Alliance. Sionk (talk) 19:13, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There are 2 Common Ground councillors - which is not noted in the Common Ground Alliance paragraph. There are ongoing joint meetings of the parties under the alliance. Given that, I think it deservers more than a throwaway paragraph. MeurigRogers (talk) 19:23, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your participation. Maybe there will be some wider participation and I'll find I'm completely wrong. Sionk (talk) 19:53, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, I think the current inclusion in 2022 Cardiff Council election (the one you get via the redirect at Common Ground Alliance) is sufficient given there is not currently good reason to think that the alliance will contest the next set of elections, and all the apparatus needed for a political party can be set up at the 2022 election page as it is in the MPWRA example above. _MB190417_ (talk) 20:28, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In contrast to the Merton Park Ward Residents Association, the Common Ground Alliance contested all wards. There is a larger significance given the Welsh Green Party's change to support Welsh independence, and the potential for the alliance to be rolled out nationally at a later date.
I regard it as significant as it was the first time an alliance of independence supporting parties beat one of the main UK based parties in a Cardiff election - a city which has historically been wholeheartedly unionist. If it proves to be the only time that happens it is still of significance in highlighting the peculiarities of the time. MeurigRogers (talk) 20:44, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
All notable information that can be added to the main parties' respective entries, supplemented with reliable, secondary sources to prove that it is as significant as you say. But WP:ORGDEPTH, which I believe covers political parties, specifically labels 'coverage of purely local events, incidents, controversies' as trivial coverage. The event really isn't notable enough beyond the level of the local council at this one election, so a redirect is right per @DankJae. _MB190417_ (talk) 23:00, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to 2022 Cardiff Council election (in line with the other redirect and they have only contested 2022), unlikely to meet WP:GNG, and seems too early to consider whether it will contest the next local election, if that should be the case a redirect and section to Cardiff Council elections or Politics in Cardiff can then apply at that time. The recently established localised party of currently only two councillors is unlikely to justify an article nor significant coverage, particularly at this stage, nor does this article provide any necessary context that cannot be explained at 2022 Cardiff Council election in its current form. Formatting can be done to address concerns on result articles as mentioned above. DankJae 20:46, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Famous for being a footballer’s girlfriend. She cannot have an article until she is independently notable. The subject clearly fails the notability criteria. Thesixserra (talk) 17:09, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete A7. You beat me right to it. I was moments away from nominating it myself. Redirect to Cristiano Ronaldo#Personal life as it was before if no other options. Trillfendi (talk) 17:32, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep I wish editors would understand the subject's notability is not as a "footballer's girlfriend", or in even more demeaning terms as some edit summaries have described. This article needs to be considered in terms of a highly popular social media personality, whose subject is notable enough to have an entire Netflix documentary about them (I Am Georgina), and over 40 million Instagram followers. Many other internet celebrities are notable enough for articles despite having much fewer followers than Rodriguez, much less coverage than her, though are clearly more likely to be male, whereas Rodriguez is female. The article needs work, but there are at least ten other Wikipedia projects having articles about this subject, including Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Persian, Portuguese and Spanish. Given the subject's independent notability, it would be strange if this was redirected to the subject's husband. Onetwothreeip (talk) 19:28, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I have added a reference from El Mundo, a high-quality newspaper source from Spain. The most rigorous sources are in Spanish, and the bulk of high quality sources for this subject will be in Spanish and Portuguese, as the subject's popularity is greatest across the Latin-speaking world. It would be especially helpful if a fluent speaker of Spanish could add references and help to build the article. Rodriguez may be seen as equivalent in notability to Kim Kardashian, who also has an overwhelming social media and celebrity presence in their own right, despite connection with their male romantic partners. Onetwothreeip (talk) 19:41, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I’m semi-fluent in Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese. In one of the sources in Spanish where she is actually interviewed she said she only wants to talk about cuidados físicos y de belleza (physical care and beauty) and rejected any questions her personal life with Ronaldo or family besides where she was born and raised and her previous jobs. That source itself ([xlsemanal.com/estilo/gente/20180327/georgina-rodriguez-cristiano-ronaldo.html XL Semanal]) wasn’t of high quality. Other sources lean into tabloid-ism and give the same Cinderella story of how she met her partner but the idea that she is equivalent in notability to Kim Kardashian is mendacious. Kim Kardashian is on the list of TIME’s Top 100 Most Influential People. She is the standard bearer of the construct of modern beauty and fame. Even if she never met Kanye West she would still be famous by herself because she’s been on her own TV show since 2007. And now the current show broke records for Hulu. Trillfendi (talk) 20:34, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If we are to read anything from that interview, it should be that her notability does not rely on her spouse. It may be more appropriate to say she is analogous rather than equivalent to Kim Kardashian, for the Spanish-speaking world. As you mention that Kardashian has a TV show of her own, so does Rodriguez herself. Onetwothreeip (talk) 08:48, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Forget Kardashian... Geirdina Rodriguez should never be mentioned in the same sentence what Kardashian even in terms of "(read false) anology". Karsahian already beame very promient figure before Cristiano Ronaldo started his career, not to mention, Critiano was also her parthner in 2010 but noboday talk about it given how big and notable is Kardashian lol. If ever then Georgina Rodriguez is infinietly less notable than Darya Dugina which does not have article on Russia Wikipedia but is redirect to his father. She is anology to her beause of Georina is gfamous because of her parther, and Darhya because of her father. Regardless WP:recentism and regardless Pageviews means nothing; if we are going by that logic then if we exclude English, Spanish, Poortuguese and Arabic Wikipedia (Georgina is Spanish, Cristiano is from Portugal and now plays in Saudi Arabia) Georgina last two weeks gets she has only 131 949 pageviews meanwhile Darya Dugina during "peak media coverage had 1 122 268 pagevies but does not have article on home/Russian wiki as I said before. People who defend by WP:Otherstuffexist do not ralise that other people nominated for edeletion mostly are muh older than 1994 year birth and are not nominated during peak of media cverage. El Mundo and El Pais are not also reliable source, certainly not enough to get significant coverage. By all that mean, per WP:Not !Voting and WP:Consensus I am pretty sure discussion shows that article should be delted per WP:common sense most people who !vote for keep said nothing other than weak soiurces and WP:I like it.Dawid2009 (talk) 21:53, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WP:otherstuffexist could work or not? I only ping more people to reeach wieder consensus and to closer of discussion make longer rationale (not speedy keep a ka other language versions are). Dawid2009 (talk) 22:46, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the ping. I will say, as is, this article should be merged, but I think there's merit for a standalone article upon expansion. Personally, I think the true "notability" of someone like Rodríguez (who, even besides her relationship to Ronaldo, is mostly for being an influencer) really isn't Wikipedia-worthy, but then again we have plenty of such individuals with pages and presumably several less notable than Rodríguez. This and the amount of material present in her pages on some of the other Wikis leads me to feel more neutral to her being noteworthy of having a page. Going back to my original point, I can't see how this article is acceptable for the mainspace in it's state. As is it does nothing to show Rodríguez's notability. Reeks of just another article shoved into the mainspace half-baked. DarkSide830 (talk) 03:18, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
As I wish people would use just a tidbit of common sense here. There are two sentences in this article that which you are asking for the speedy keep of… one sentence is that she is an Argentine-Spanish model and influencer and the other is that she is the life partner of Cristiano Ronaldo, obviously a famous footballer. That’s it. There is nothing inherently notable about these two sentences to have a Wikipedia article about. Having 44 million Instagram followers does not create notability for a Wikipedia article per any Wikipedia standards on notability. Other languages of Wikipedia have their own standards for inclusion that have no bearing on English Wikipedia. Trillfendi (talk) 20:03, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Notability for an article should be assessed among reliable sources, not the article itself, although interestingly the article itself already has over 40,000 views in less than a week. I thought that other language Wikipedia projects having their own inclusion standards would come up here, but this is actually an indication to support inclusion, as generally their inclusion standards are higher than that of English Wikipedia, and that we have their content and references to draw from. Along with being among the most followed people on Instagram, these do not necessarily mean the subject has met notability criteria automatically, it requires some investigation, but these should indicate to editors that it is worth assessing the subject's notability, and not simply dismissing the subject as the female spouse of another prominent person. However, I do agree that the article should give a better indication of the subject's notability, which is currently lacking from the article, which is a very new stub article. Onetwothreeip (talk) 20:13, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We also have to remember that social media numbers can be boosted by bots; until some of the sites can guarantee they've gotten rid of bots, we can't use likes/followers/stream numbers as any sort of proof of "notability". You can pay people that guarantee to boost your followers/stream numbers/likes, making these numbers unverifiable and untrustworthy, so we can't use them for notability standards here. Oaktree b (talk) 02:42, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think we should use social media statistics as evidence of notability, they can be an indicator for us to investigate notability further. Bots are less relevant at over 40 million followers, and bots are unlikely to be involved in this article now having 60,000 views since being created less than a week ago, about 6,000 times more than the amount of views most deleted articles get. Not necessarily evidence of notability itself, but an indication for us to look further. Onetwothreeip (talk) 08:39, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete We don't even have her hometown, life history or how she came to meet her partner.

I stated above that I am at this point in time semi-fluent in Spanish (I’ve made multiple Wikipedia articles in Spanish from the top of my head including the Spanish article for Silk Sonic) and Brazilian Portuguese so yes, I read the tabloid fodder on the other articles and would like to believe English Wikipedia has higher standards than “she is the partner of Cristiano Ronaldo”. Outside of her relationship with a super famous man she has done nothing independently notable to make an article about. Irina Shayk has. Just mi opinión. Trillfendi (talk) 05:54, 9 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The notability certainly isn't on the basis of being the spouse of someone notable. It is largely about her social media presence, which is quite significant.

  • The subject meets WP:GNG, regardless of the state of the current article, as the subject regularly receive[s] significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. The trouble for English Wikipedia is that there is extensive coverage of the subject in low-quality sources in English. There are some high quality sources on the subject in English, but these can be obscured by a search engine with the lower quality ones, while the quality of sources is relatively higher in the Spanish language.

First, a confession - it was me as a novice AfC reviewer that accepted this from a draft. I am now revisiting that review after another editor tagged the article for notability. My reassessment is that the sources are all either interviews or articles that Pavlov has written about his adventures. There is a lack of WP:SECONDARY coverage. The author is a single-purpose account that has not edited again since, and their name implies an auto-biography. This appears to be self-promotion - explorers need publicity to fund their lifestyle.

  • Delete I was the editor who first raised the notability and UPE concerns. I have been going through the WikiProject Climbing BLPs. 30 years ago, climbing an eight-thousander made you notable with coverage in the main climbing media (Climbing, Rock & Ice, Alpinist, AAJ etc.). Now, you need to climb all 14 to get enough GNG for notability (and it is still not guaranteed). Tourist-climbers can ascent Everest, Cho Oyu and Manaslu for circa $20,000 with minimal mountaineering experience. This BLP appears in none of the main climbing media; being in the climbing media does not guarantee notability, but not being in any of it, and trying to have a platform for notability on WP based on climbing is a problem. 78.18.228.191 (talk) 13:52, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Marianne Schwankhart is another classic example of a SA Times journalist/photographer (her name appears as a credit in Times articles), with a WP BLP for climbing notability, and yet she has never appeared in any of the climbing media (because, from a climbing perspective, she is not notable); but references to low-grade climbing/outdoor blogs have been used to try a "sustain" a notability on WP. 78.18.228.191 (talk) 13:57, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This page is an effective super fork of the 1975 Australian constitutional crisis, and it should either be merged BACK into the original article (Merging would do), but as a standalone page it does not warrent being its own article. It is important, but it runs the risk of becoming a page full of Original research. Thank you everyone for your readthrough, and have a great (EST) morning and a happy new 2023.

  • The 1975 Australian constitutional crisis article currently contains 47 kB of readable text. Merging the "Alleged CIA involvement" article would increase the article size to around 52kB, at which point policy says the article "May need to be divided". The article is based on sources from the Guardian, NYT, AFR, ABC ..., which justify a stand-alone article. Not sure why original research is more of an issue for this article than for any other article. Burrobert (talk) 15:31, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not a notable list subject. The flags have nothing in common (the countries do of course), the "official" union flags have no notability nor any evidence that they are official. Fram (talk) 12:45, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: France, Ireland, and United Kingdom. Fram (talk) 12:45, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak conditional keep: I would have said 'Delete' were it not for the inclusion of pan-Celtic flags, which makes me think that the entry, with a lot of work (especially more context on the flags, which do not appear on the main entries, also to illustrate their significance, if they have any) and possibly a renaming, could be repurposed to something more alike the Nordic cross flag entry. _MB190417_ (talk) 12:58, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Additional comment: Just in light of subsequent discussion to say that in my view, the only redeeming feature of the entry is the pan-Celtic flags (i.e. flags representing all Celtic nations; if and only if such flags can be proved to be notable). A Flags of Celtic Nations entry without these flags would be no more than a list of Celtic nations/regions and I'd be surprised if it survived an AfD. _MB190417_ (talk) 14:28, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @MB190417, If it were to be like Nordic cross flag it would technically be about "triskelion flags", as that is the element shared by all three pan-Celtic flags but not in most of the Celtic nations ones (though IOM has a legged version). But an article on three proposed unofficial flags (I find no evidence of official use) that happen to use the same icon, probably does not meet notability guidelines. And could easily be in other articles, including triskelion or pan-Celticism. IOM and Sicily are already at triskelion, not sure whether than pan-Celtic ones should be though as they're unofficial (from my searches). DankJae 20:22, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, @DankJae; I've struck through my original comment and now suggest Merge with Pan-Celticism per your contributions. _MB190417_ (talk) 20:31, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep needs some references adding to it but seems notable and probably needs the flags of other recognised Celtic areas added to the page. Would probably rename to Flags of Celtic Nations.--MartyTheArty (talk) 13:45, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    • How do you determine that "it seems to be notable" without sources? Fram (talk) 13:47, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - this OR and Synthesis to me. What is the definition of a "Celtic Flag"? Appears to be a list of flags of so-called Celtic regions and nations. Spleodrach (talk) 13:55, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I have added some reference and commentary to address this issue. I will refine this and add more later. --MartyTheArty (talk) 15:02, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • None of the sources seem to address this though (some show or list the individual flags), nor do they address the pan-celtic flags at first sight. Can you indicate which of your sources actually discuss "celtic flags"? Something like this doesn't even mention the word flag (nor does it show one), and neither does this one, so their value for this article (never mind to determine notability) seems very limited at best. Fram (talk) 15:11, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This article is, in effect, a list. Ostensibly a list of flags of Celtic nations. Unless WP:NLIST can be demonstrated, to the extent that all of the list members are discussed "as a group or set by independent reliable sources", I don't see how I could recommend anything other than deletion. Any alternatives to deletion (like redirecting and covering in the Celtic nations article) might apply to other titles (like the proposed "Flags of Celtic Nations"). But not the current Celtic flags title. As there is no indication that this term has any established meaning. (Certainly all of the refs in the article deal with the concept of the Celtic nations. Not the concept of "Celtic flags"). Guliolopez (talk) 16:03, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, per above. Rarely any lists nor articles on cultural flags or flags of a broad cultural category, flags already largely present at Celtic Nations, Pan-Celticism and Flags of Europe. Not sure what the article means by official in the Pan-celtic section, a image search using the flags and the source description do not indicate any official use by any organisation. Therefore not notable enough to categorise by cultural grouping and quite a bit WP:SYNTH. DankJae 20:29, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Note: as per another editor above, delete due to unclear title as well as "Flags of Celtic Nations" (since created), while content could be split and merged into multiple articles there is no clear destination for "Celtic flags" and "Flags of Celtic Nations" so better to delete both entirely.

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

Article about the use of the Sundanese language in Depok, with an infobox claiming that it is a separate language somehow. No evidence that it actually is a separate language, and no evidence that it is a notable subject. There seems to have been some attention to the use of standard Sundanese in school (the section of "Sundanese as local content" seems to deal with this, although the "local content" link leads to a page which doesn't use the term), but none to Depok Sundanese as a language. Fram (talk) 08:52, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Fram: Why do you suggest this article should be deleted? Meanwhile, the references I have provided are sufficient to prove the use and position of Sundanese in Depok. No need for actual deletion as I can still fix this article. Oh yes, I want to ask if the language infobox template is only for registered languages? Blackman Jr. (talk) 10:50, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The reasons for deletion are in the opening statement right above. And the language infobox should only be used for languages, yes, not for the use of a language in one specific city. Fram (talk) 11:10, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To be more exact: The infobox can also be used for "unregistered" language varieties (= languages or dialects), but: the language variety should 1) be distinct and 2) have WP:SIGCOV as a topic of its own. Now, Sundanese as spoken in Depok most likely is simply part of the Bogor dialect (Bogor Sundanese is a redirect to the main language article), and the variety used in the curriculum certainly is "standard" textbook Sundanese based on Parahyangan dialect. None of the sources tells us that we're dealing with a distinct language variety here, but only with a minor issue about the usage of Sundanese in the curriculum of local schools. This issue doesn't meet WP:GNG. Hence, the best option is to merge this content as suggested below. Unfortunately, the article Sundanese language doesn't have a section about Sundanese language classes in local schools, so the target suggested below is a good temporary solution. –Austronesier (talk) 11:52, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge selectively to Depok#Culture. It’s fine to have coverage of which languages are spoken in a particular city in the article about the city, but there isn’t enough here to support a stand alone article. It’s also badly written which makes it difficult to decipher what it is trying to say. The bottom line is some people in the city speak Sundanese. That’s maybe two sentences worth in a larger article. Mccapra (talk) 12:42, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per above. "Local conctent" is a school subject in Indonesia, which is usually used by many places in Indonesia teach their local languages as part of their school curriculum so this is nothing notable as literally everyone else is doing it.

Fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:BASIC. Subject is only mentioned in passing in the sources which are primarily about other performers. Main claim to notability is the subject is cast in an upcoming season of Drag Race which has not yet aired. As such, the subject is currently only briefly mentioned in press releases for cast announcements. At the moment there is zero in-depth independent significant coverage of the subject. This is clearly a case of WP:TOOSOON.4meter4 (talk) 07:52, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If the consensus ends up being there isn’t yet enough sigcov / notability for a separate article, at the very least this should Merge to either RuPaul's Drag Race (season 15) or Miss Continental (which she won in 2012) instead of being outright deleted.

@Umimmak Excellent!

Hopefully someone could get a hold of a copy. I would consider this a good source towards SIGCOV based on the entries which are visible. The LA Times piece sadly is largely an interview. As such it lacks independence from the subject for SIGCOV purposes. However, I think the book entry is significant enough that I am going to withdraw the nomination. However, @ Another Believer you really need to weed all of the bad sourcing out of this article. The social media posts, press releases, YouTube, and tabloids need to be removed.

In such cases it is your responsibility to refresh the page and then start your edit over in order to not accidentally revert the edits of others. If you look back in the article history you also accidentally reverted one of my edits (see here) to the article, so clearly you are having some technical issues which you need to work on figuring out.

@Naraht Wikipedia:WikiProject_Beauty_Pageants/Notability_(beauty_pageant_participants)#Pageant-specific_criteria is an essay without community support and is not a recognized guideline or policy recognized here at AFD.

  • Keep. Sources like this and this are more than just passing mentions in press releases. Also, "main claim to notability" is winning Miss Continental, not being cast on Drag Race. IF editors decide a standalone article is not appropriate at this time, just redirect instead of deleting altogether because users will be searching for info about her.

@Another Believer neither of these sources reach wikipedia's quality standards for referencing to prove WP:SIGCOV. The first source is literally a copy paste of a twitter feed, and the second source is a tabloid type opinion piece article full of speculation which is trying to promote the upcoming season of Drag Race. Both of these fail WP:TABLOID and WP:PROMO. This is not demonstrating good critical judgement when evaluating sources.4meter4 (talk) 15:38, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, not ideal sources, but coverage is more than "brief mentions in press releases" as you suggested. I'm not going to fight hard to keep this article, but deleting now is pointless because it'll just be recreated very soon. ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:43, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I should have been more clear. I was referring to the quality sources having passing mentions; not the overly promotional tabloid sources (which are often paid for by World of Wonder or the TV network broadcasting the show) which we automatically dismiss as unreliable. These kinds of articles often lack independence in addition to having verifiability issues due to their use of gossip and opinion. Personally, I think its likely after the season is aired or perhaps during that we will see better coverage, which is why I cited WP:TOOSOON. Draftifying is often done in cases like this. Best. 4meter4 (talk) 15:48, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In the future, consider just adding a notability tag, expressing your concerns on the article's talk page, or redirecting before jumping to AfD. In addition to coverage received to date, the subject is going to get a lot of additional coverage in the coming weeks and months, but now editors will waste time at AfD. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:03, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Another Believer, that is not policy. We have WP:TOOSOON and WP:CRYSTAL for a reason. This should be redirected or moved to draft until the sources are there to not only pass GNG but also verify the content of the article. That is policy. The article should never have been placed in main space which is why it was brought here. The issue isn't me but the editor or editors who decided to create the article before the sources were there to support it. We are building an encyclopedia here, not a promotional platform for drag queens4meter4 (talk) 16:24, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I've already said redirecting would have been more appropriate than jumping to AfD. Redirecting would have taken minimal time and effort, but now we're here. I agree Wikipedia is "not a promotional platform for drag queens", but I also recognize that the vast majority of RuPaul's Drag Race contestants have entries and the subject has actually done some notable things like winning Miss Continental and appearing in multiple television series. I understand what you're saying, I just don't see this entry as problematic especially given the guaranteed press coverage on the horizon. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:36, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I agree which is why I support draftifying per WP:TOOSOON. AT AFD we routinely draftify articles under these circumstances. Note to closer If this article is draftified, I would strongly advocate for the article to be required to go through WP:AFC review and approval process before this is allowed to move back into mainspace given the overuse of unreliable sources like social media, YouTube, press releases, and tabloids in the current version of the article. Clearly some additional editorial input is needed before this can be put back into mainspace.4meter4 (talk) 16:42, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sacate Village, Arizona[edit]

Here we have the inverse problem of Sacate, Arizona. First, I must boldly say that a CDP isn't notable simply by existing; it has to correspond to some actual settlement, and this one plainly does not. I do not have an actual map of the CDP, but the coordinates given correspond to exactly nothing, just a more or less blank area that has some slight population. And indeed, the GNIS entry comes directly from the census; the topos show nothing.

Contrary wise, there are enough text references to such a place that I have to think there was at some time a Sacate or Secate Village— but not here. Mangoe (talk) 05:44, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion
  • Comment: Discussion here of an archeological site. Not deep enough into this yet to be sure it is at the same location exactly, but it seems to be in the right region. Several mentions here also, although it seems "sacate" means "dry grass" so not all of the hits are relevant. Some are though. It appears on a map in that book, which may be helpful in determining if this is the same place. Still not sure if there's enough for a separate article. Mentioned here also Elinruby (talk) 07:38, 28 December 2022 (UTC) ASU dissertation here. Mention in passing as a train stop here.[reply]

Here we come upon a pair of problem places which I believe are in some sense the same place, the other being Sacate Village, Arizona. I was inclined at first to treat them in a single nomination, but the articles themselves present different issues and I wanted to avoid a do-over.

The problem in this case is that we have an entry from what appears to be an NIST gazetteer which I cannot correlate with the maps. The topos go back to 1915 in this case, and there is no sign of a rail line anywhere near; in fact, there isn't a sign of anything near. The name just appears on the maps in 2014, and that's that. The thing is, there seems to be testimony to suggest that there was some settlement or some area called "Sacate" or "Sacate Village"; the Old Cowboy Cemetery is labelled "Sacate Cemetery" on GMaps, and there are the ruins of a St. Francis Borgia Church said to have been at Sacate Village, but I cannot determine where this is/was. Obviously if someone can sort this out and establish a coherent story about a definite settlement, we could have an article, but at this point I just don't see it.

  • Keep. I have done a substantial expansion. It's notable in several ways -- Indian village on what is now Gila River reservation, train station, church mission with murals by Native artist, still apparently a population center on the reservation, and there was a shootout there with someone called "Maricopa Slim" around 1910. Plus per OP's belief they're the same place yes kinda - Sacaton Indian agency + "Zácate, more frequently sácate, from the Nahuatl çacatl, is the usual name for grass such as horses and cattle eat, also called indifferently by Garcés pastos and pasturas, pasturage, forage, herbage. Such 'grass' is distinguished from sácaton, the tall rank herbage, such as reeds, rushes, and the like, unfit for forage."[4] A place called Sacate was the site of a battle or series of battles between Yuma and Maricopa Indians in 1857–58... ANYWAY I'm 90 percent sure that Sacaton (village) is the same as Sacate, Arizona but Sacate is distinct from Sacaton, Arizona, which is still the site of the Pima Indian Agency - I suspect Socatoon Station (a stagecoach stop) was very close by or at Sacate but I'm not an archeologist. I think Sacate Village, Arizona is a legal subdivision of the reservation and should be left alone until someone who knows the area and has relevant sources can address but whatever. jengod (talk) 21:03, 5 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The plane crash itself doesn't meet WP:GNG, and much less when WP:LASTING is considered as all coverage is in the immediate aftermath of the accident. WP:BLAR by Onel5969 was contested by Air Astana 1388, so I'm bringing this to AfD.

  • Keep. The investigation of this event is still in its early stages and a preliminary report still hasn't been issued. Additional details will be forthcoming on the event when a preliminary report is issued, but so far there is nothing to suggest whether this is a run-of-the-mill "pilot fell asleep" accident or a "mid-air-explosion" accident. There has been enough worldwide coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. The crash resulted in the death of a wikipedia-notable individual, which by community consensus means this isn't just-another-small-plane-crash merge/delete, and the Rainer Schaller article is short and brief and would be overwhelmed by the details of this event which for now should be maintained as a separate article about the event, the investigation, and the aftermath/results of the same, so for that reason I oppose merging. RecycledPixels (talk) 16:39, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Looking at the source you just added ( [17], from the week of the crash), I think it's more accurate to say "there is nothing to suggest anything at all". Over 2 months out from the crash date, there's still no evidence that there was anything remarkable about the crash other than its victim. If and when additional coverage is available, an article can be considered. signed, Rosguill talk 17:13, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Rainer Schaller per nom. This article seems to me to be a case of WP:INHERITed, as opposed to inherent, notability.

This is a WP:INDISCRIMINATE list. The phrase "transitional fossil" has almost no weight in modern paleontology. Almost any fossil could be considered a transitional fossil between some group or another, as almost all fossils show a selection of both primitive and derived traits, as detailed in our cladistics article. While some of this list is sourced some of these sources don't even use the phrase, "transitional fossil", and the vast majority is completely unsourced. The section Transitional_fossil#Prominent_examples in the main article is more than enough to list the most historically famous examples like Archaeopteryx Hemiauchenia (talk) 00:58, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would support a merge to Transitional fossil#Prominent examples. I fail to see why this list can't be prose.

I disagree that the term has almost no weight in modern paleontology - it is rather that it is now generally relativized by specifying at what level, or even to what characteristic, it is considered to apply.
