Non-notable individual lacking non-trivial support. -- Danny (talk) 22:41, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment For a comparison basis, I went through the secondary regular cast members of A Nero Wolfe Mystery, cross-referencing Wikipedia and IMDB. Many of them had more than 40 IMDB credits, my arbitrary internal 'cut-off number.' Most them also had Wikipedia articles, often with minimal, nominally less than adequate third party references. No one is nominating any of them for deletion. . Gerit's production history, almost invariably as a Line producer, is substantial. Against him is that the article has been written entirely by someone close to him--whose only contributions have been to his article and a few subjects mentioned in his article. Tapered (talk) 05:43, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per WP:BIO and WP:GNG. An acting credit carries a lot more weight than that of a line producer. The latter just doesn't get any press notice. Despite being a major movie fan, I've never even heard of the job title until now. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:35, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This article has been tagged for lack of references since 2010. I searched for sources to improve this article about a star (including SIMBAD), but they appear to be lacking. While the object is just barely visible to the naked eye and hence satisfies WP:NASTCRIT, I don't believe it meets the significant coverage requirement for general notability. Praemonitus (talk) 22:01, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

To be clear, the article topic itself is possibly suitable for a stand-alone article. But the current version is just a personal reflection (fails WP:OR and WP:NPOV, tagged since 2010, still orphan), based on one particular incident with Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao. While the article has some sources, they are often not used to verify the article's content, but to illustrate the author's conclusions. Other claims are speculative or unsourced.

This is definitely not something that we do. It is not a proper disambiguation page, because there are no articles actually having this title, and those that have titles close to it are universally partial title matches; Chancellor (disambiguation) exists to cover actual ambiguous uses of that term. It is not workable as a list article because the collection of information is indiscriminate.

• Comment: Hello all, I am the creator of this page / list and thank everyone for their time. I have also created another similar lists (Faculty of Commerce and Faculty of Arts (disambiguation)) and depending on the outcome of this discussion (and should the outcome of this discussion be delete), I humbly recommend we action those two pages as well. If need be, I will nominate other two pages for deletion with reference of this discussion. At this, I would also like to draw your attention towards a good solution provided here in another case by a very helpful admin. Just FYI. Thanks again and apologies if I caused any trouble. I was just trying to standardize names and make information easily available for readers. Cheers, Arun Kumar SINGH (Talk) 05:55, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  The issue is that these are all topics for Wikipedia:Broad-concept articles. A "Faculty of Commerce" is a type of thing in itself, and we should have an article with citations to references and textual information describing the history and common characteristics of this type of entity, rather than a page that merely lists a few examples. bd2412 T 12:30, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Good point bd2412. With the same intent, I had first created page only for Vice-Chancellors but later realized that there were other pages with combination of uses and hence performed page move. In any case and as I stated above; whatever the majority decides will be done. Since the subject was open, I thought I should also draw everyone's attention towards similar pages I was involved in and / or had created.

College has different meaning in different settings and does not necessarily imply the awarding of degrees, e.g. Lake Ginninderra College (http://www.lakeonline.act.edu.au/) - offers year 11 and year 12 secondary classes in Canberra, Australia - does not offer degrees or any form of tertiary education.P.saladino (talk) 00:03, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. There are no sources and it does not appear to meet notability guidelines. The use of the term "College" is a red herring. Many educational institutions in Australia that are not degree granting, including many private secondary schools (see Scotch College for 4 with the same name for a start), have College as part of their name. --Bduke (Discussion) 00:59, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Laureate International Universities, since the College is owned by education provider "Think Education", itself part of the "Laureate International University" group. In response to DGG argument that the college is "non degree-granting, and therefore cannot properly be called a college"; a College don't have to be a degree awarding institution to be called a college. There are several non-degree awarding colleges in the world and in fact some of them have article here, perhaps they met WP:GNG which this one under discussion does not meet thou. In real sense, a College is any of a number of independent institutions within certain Universities, each having its own teachers, students and building.

• Keep. Private providers are an increasingly significant part of the Australian tertiary education system, and it's an area we should have coverage of. It's very odd that both the nominator and Bduke are talking about high schools because it has "college" in the name: that is completely irrelevant to the issue of having articles on private tertiary providers. Specifically oppose redirecting to Laureate International Universities, which doesn't even mention that it owns education institutions in Australia. The Drover's Wife (talk) 07:36, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You misunderstand me. I was saying that the nominator's argument about Colleges was not relevant because there are plenty of Colleges in Australia that are not degree granting like this one. I agree that private providers are an increasingly significant part of the Australian tertiary education system, but they need to be notable and that is the issue here. I am not seeing notability, but will change if some one finds some reliable sources. --Bduke (Discussion) 09:18, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Bduke what do you think about redirect? The Drover's Wife; I earlier suggested Redirect per this source and this one. Although I felt it should have a stand-alone article but I can't find enough sources to support a stand-alone article. If you can provide enough reliable sources that established the subject notability, I will gladly change my decision from Redirect to Keep. However, the claim that the subject of the article is part of "LIU" may not be included in the article, Laureate International Universities as at the time the page was created but reliable sources establish that its part of "Laureate International Universities" the sources I provided above for example. In the same vein you misinterpreted Bduke's comment above. I and Bduke is saying that the nominator's argument about Colleges is ridiculous and invalid as rationale for deletion. Wikic¤l¤gy^{t@lk to M£} 09:41, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I feel like LIU is a bit far removed and that it'd be better to delete if that's what it comes to. I feel like Think Education probably is notable as a business with major national operations, and might make for an acceptable merge/redirect if it existed (since it could cover this as well). I am not that enthused as to want to write it, though. The Drover's Wife (talk) 11:13, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete College - whats in a name in Australian usage the term varies greatly to describe places of education, high schools to vocational certificate providers its also used to describe accommodation and study areas on some universities the term itself is irrelevent to this discussion as it correctly applied. Such a poor nomination should be closed on being out the scope of reasons for deletion but looking at the sources there are no independent sources providing substantial coverage as per WP:GNG and WP:RS for this reason it should be deleted.

But this makes no other claim that would get her over another Wikipedia inclusion bar — and it relies on minimal sourcing, with #1 being her own profile on her own employer's website (an invalid primary source) and the rest simply namechecking her existence in conjunction with exclusively local coverage of a social issue (and thus failing to demonstrate that she's nationally or internationally recognized for that work.) In addition, there's a probable WP:COI here if you check the creator's username — while that isn't technically a deletion rationale in and of itself, it confirms that the intent here had more to do with public relations than with Wikipedia's inclusion standards for politicians.

Lacks reliable independent secondary sources actually about the subject to establish notability as required by WP:GNG. Sources offered are an incredibly long list of complete junk obviously intended to discourage anyone from checking. (talk) 13:30, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yep - seems to meet these criteria WP:GNG, WP:SIGCOV - sure has significant coverage which has 'editorial integrity'. Maybe you think some of the references should come out? please say which. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yogiyo10 (talk • contribs) 14:11, 17 June 2015 (UTC) [reply]

They're all unhelpful. It is not enough to point to a lot of primary sources, internet listings and similar stuff and that's what most of these claimed sources are. I went through the list and it took me quite a while. All it takes to establish notability on Wikipedia is two good sources, defined as reliable, independent and secondary and actually about the subject. WP:RELIABLE means a reputation for fact-checking and editorial control. WP:INDEPENDENT means the author of the article cannot be connected somehow to the subject. WP:SECONDARY means that the author must offer his or her own thinking. It also has to actually be about the subject, it can't just be a trivial mention or a quote (or even an interview in most cases.)

It would be helpful if you could identify the two or three best sources that you feel meet the criteria. I've already said I don't think there are any. All it takes is two and if you can point them out, I promise to retract my nomination. Msnicki (talk) 15:45, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot User: msnicki - so i would say that links 5,6,10 and 11 are all reliable and independent. They all discuss his work in the context of a wider piece and express the article writer's opinion. They are reliable as from established media: The Caterer Magazine, The Telegraph, Computer Weekly, BBC. But you're right there are a bunch in there that are probably not needed and I'll take them out. Happy to retract your nomination on that balance? I'll make the edits now :-) Yogiyo10 (talk)yogiyo10Yogiyo10 (talk)

5 is an article in The Caterer Magazine about a study that was done by "accountancy firm Kingston Smith and the Cranfield School of Management". There is a one-sentence quote from the subject, described as a "visiting fellow at Cranfield School of Management". The publication may be reliable and article may be independent, but this source is unhelpful because it's not about the subject but about a study. Though he's quoted, the article doesn't report his connection to the study nor anything else about him. Either way, the comment is clearly WP:PRIMARY for reasons discussed at WP:Interviews#Notability.

6 is an article written by the subject, making it clearly WP:PRIMARY.

10 is also unhelpful. This is another article about the study and a new online tool being developed by Cranfield and Axa insurance. Three paragraphs are given to reporting the subject's favorable comments about the study and another three paragraphs to favorable comments from people at three other organizations. This is standard uncritical reporting of business press release material. Notice there's no byline. But also, the subject is described as "a director at Cranfield" and it appears he's talking about his own project. You can't make yourself notable just by talking about yourself or your work. Other people need to do it. His quotes and uncritical reporting of his views on his own work do not contribute to notability.

11 is a "Live Q&A" about writing a business plan. The subject is a panalist. This makes it WP:PRIMARY and unhelpful in establishing notability.

Fundamentally, none of these of sources (and I contend, none of the rest) meet our requirements as reliable independent secondary sources actually discussing the subject in detail. Msnicki (talk) 16:44, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete We seem to be getting a lot of WP articles for authors at Kogan Page which makes me wonder if there isn't something coordinated going on. Notability for authors is not just a question of having written some books, and articles about authors need to be much more than bibliographies. There need to be reviews of the books, articles about the author and the author's importance in the world, etc. My gut feeling is that there will be few business authors who rise to WP standards. In a sense they are like the authors of self-help books -- they mainly give advice but there's little hard or even soft science to their writing. Like other authors, time (probably decades) will be needed to determine if their books have had an impact. If someone is dedicating themselves to adding these authors to WP, you might want to save yourself and the rest of us a lot of time by taking a serious look at WP:AUTHOR.

• Delete. I can't really find where this film is ultimately notable enough for an article. Schnittberichte.com initially seemed like it might be usable but offhand the staff page only shows the site's owner and mods rather than a team of editors. (IE, editors can be mods but not all mods are editors.) However even if this was usable it still wouldn't be enough to show notability for this film. Since the sequel was titled the same I was able to search for both films and couldn't find a thing, so this is going to be a delete for both movies. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:00, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. They seem notable enough given Wikipedia:Notability guidelines for media considering the amount of perceived interest online, given only a small amount of looking. Also good to keep in mind given the subject matter of the film is that Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not censored, no matter how someone might feel individually. Thirdly (and finally), given the plethora of less-notable films and media that have passed for notable, these both seem to pass easily. Cardsplayer4life 2ndverse (talk) 12:49, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• "Wikipedia is not censored" is irrelevant, as nobody put that forward as a reason for deletion: it is a straw-man argument. Can you clarify what you mean by "the amount of perceived interest online"? Do you mean that it has been mentioned in posts in blogs and forums, or that there is substantial coverage in reliable sources online, or what? The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 12:38, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't claim that censorship was put forth as a verbalized argument: I just know that in the past it has often been the underlying (unspoken) reason for content discrimination while other reasoning is put forth formally. (In fact, I would find it quite unlikely that it would be formally stated, even if it were an underlying reason.) In terms of interest, I was referring to formal and informal responses to the media by others online, through text and video. It is quite obvious that it is a piece of media that was produced; it is just the notability of the article that is being questioned. It has been several years since I have been a frequent editor on Wikipedia, but from 2005-2009, I created and maintained a large amount of content. I just find the recent trend towards deletion of content that seemingly has value to people troubling. Personally, I would tend to err on the side of letting content in that might be perceived as non-notable by some vs. deleting content that might be of value. I tend to look at Wikipedia content in a way similar to Blackstone's formulation. ("It is better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer") In other words, it would be better to let 10 (or 100) potentially non-notable articles in than risk deleting 1 potentially notable article. Obviously, that is a larger debate and doesn't really pertain to these articles, except in the meta sense. It doesn't really matter: I think the subject of the articles is notable and I think it is clear that there are a large enough number of other people that feel the same way online. Obviously you disagree and want to delete it, which is fine. Just remember, everything you delete that someone has spent time on and feels invested in contributes to the often referenced decline of Wikipedia through editor alienation.

Not notable, probable promotion Mnnlaxer (talk) 13:00, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The only reason I didn't WP:PROD this article is the almost certain objection from someone who is promoting this project would object. User:BiH is the creator and sole (positive) contributor to the article. The non-notability of Lady-Comp is fairly obvious, as is the fact this article was created for promotional purposes. While there are many hits for Google News searches, they are all PR or blogs. RS for this product will be very hard to find. The Daily Mail article that is the only source right now is likely a paid promotion or at least a conflict of interest. Even if the DM is called a RS in this case, it the sole RS that the article's promoters have found. It is not likely there are others. Note that the fact the device had clinical trials does not make the device notable. Should be obvious, but I'll say it anyway, all medical devices have clinical trials before they are sold in most countries. Mnnlaxer (talk) 13:13, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Although many of the facts here are notable per se, and have their respective own articles, the topic "Women's rights in 2014" is not notable. It might be a topic for a magazine like Time, but I don't see why Wikipedia should analyze the events of last year. And I even wouldn't say that 2014 was a significant year for women's rights or feminism. And if it becomes a significant year, then we will know it only in many years from now. Wikipedia is not a place to publish original thought. Abaget (talk) 12:42, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I checked the first six sources currently cited by the article, and all of them describe 2014 as an important year for women's rights or for feminism.

• What you both mention would be a solid argument, if it were not for the fact that the media seems to call more than one year special, or a turning point: in 2013, in 2012, 2012 II, or 2012 III, in 2011, in 2010.

Indeed, the fact that the media named 2014 special, makes the year even more like previous years.

At best, mentioning the fact that 2014 is a turning point could be merged in the Women's rights article. The individual facts are already covered throughout Wikipedia. --Abaget (talk) 17:34, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's possible that enough sources could be located to support the creation of other articles such as Women's rights in 2013 etc, but lack of other potentially notable articles doesn't justify deletion of this article which meets GNG.--BoboMeowCat (talk) 17:43, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Well, you would have to create a lot of articles. There is nothing remarkable in the wording chosen by those journalists. It is only a hyperbolic style. However, there is another way of dealing with this. The events treated by this article are already covered in other articles. If 2014 was special for some reason, then Timeline of women's rights (other than voting) for example, might be a better place for stating that. No need to create a complete new article with repeated content though. In the form that this article is written, it is just a venue for someone to defend his opinion about how much the feminist movement is making progress.Abaget (talk) 21:01, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep The extensive list of references proves this is a fine topic. Also, of course, the deletion rationale is invalid: Wikipedia has plenty of articles that analyze the events of last year. I give you 2014 in games, 2014 in video gaming, 2014 in philosophy, even 2014 in amusement parks; all of which are parts of series on various years in these topics. --GRuban (talk) 20:50, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Several sources identified 2014 as a watershed year. But even without that, there's no problem in writing articles about developments in women's rights during that or any other year. Sarah ^(talk) 22:50, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - [year] in [subject] is a pretty standard encyclopedic article format for big subjects highly visible in current events for the year. Hence we have a whole category, Category:Years by topic, with many subcategories. The most similar are probably Category:Years in LGBT rights. That we do not currently have women's right topics by other year doesn't mean we can't have this one. The standard that would apply is whether there exist sufficient sources showing the article subject as notable (looks to be true) and sufficient material to justify a separate article rather than merge it into a broader subject article. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 22:56, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Speedy redirect to Mikiyo Ohno. This is the same person and is already linked to the Japanese article, which is extensive ja:大野幹代. The other language for Ono is Tagalog and it's a duplicate of the Ohno article, that they also have. Wgolf, I think you can just redirect this. —Мандичка^YO 😜 22:17, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment - the OCLC World Catalog (http://www.worldcat.org/identities/np-ohno,%20mikiyo/) does use the Mikiyo Ohno spelling for her Zero Woman appearance so there is some precedent for this use in English.

• Merge to Mikiyo Ohno. Merge because this article contains some information not in the destination article, and to keep the alternate spelling. After the merge, that article can be moved to Mikiyo Ōno if people don't care for the Ohno spelling. But Ono and Ohno should be kept at least as redirects as both have some some currency on the web. – Margin1522 (talk) 13:28, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep She recieved notice at death from the New York Times. She was a significant advancer in chemistry and the article should be kept.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:38, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: The article indicates that she invented the roll-on mechanism, not the product (Ban, which was still sold through the 1970's). At the same time, this actually is the sort of information that likely is encyclopedic. Given the fact that the present article is a fairly slavish recreation of an obit. format, if this is all that anyone can say, then it would be a merge/redirect. I suspect, though, that there is more to say. I hope that it's found. Otherwise, there would need to be a merge of relevant information at a couple of articles (for the products she was an innovator on). (By no means should there be a flat "delete." Female engineers and business women are under-documented already.) Hithladaeus (talk) 18:30, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge to deodorant - unfortunately I don't see the required coverage necessary. She's mentioned a lot for her invention, but no significant coverage of her. FYI Johnpacklambert, The NY Times obituary was a paid death notice and not actual reporting. —Мандичка^YO 😜 19:20, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Thank you for doing that. From the 1940's to the 1980's, American corporations did basic research, and there were women and African American inventors/developers whose contributions are hard to disentangle. (Famously, the man who invented ibuprofen got a watch for his work.) Not every one of these was Bell Labs or Kodak's Eastman labs, so it's cool that we've rescued easily-missed information. Hithladaeus (talk) 00:46, 12 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• I would love to keep this article, but just cannot at the moment find enough sources. I did add a reference to the NYT article of 1952 when Ban Roll-on was a WOW product. I also added that to the Deodorant page, and have a few more to add to that. If we redirect, then at least there is a starting point if more info is discovered.

• Soft delete of this sad stub in desperate need of expansion. I found that in November 2014 Indian Express told us that filming would begin mid 2015. And in March 2015 Deccan Chronicle told us that filming will begin "soon". And also in March 2015, Bollywood Hungama describes the role to be played by Salman Khan and Daily News & Analysis tells us the film is expected to release on EID 2016 (that'd be early July). 2 weeks ago (June 2015), Indian Express discusses casting. My own research performed, I need to underscore that this film topic has LOTS of coverage and any issues with a film article's format are easily addressable and not a valid deletion rationale. What that leaves us is that we simply do not have confirmation of filming actually having begun and so, even with coverage, this topic is simply TOO SOON. We do have enough sources speaking about this film's pre-production so that it can be spoken of and sourced in articles of director, producer, production company, and stars as a project about to begin filming... but it fails WP:NFF (paragraph 3) for a separate article. Allow undeletion or recreation once we have confirmation. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 06:23, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

College football player whose career wasn't notable, see WP:ATHLETE. Co-founder of a perhaps notable company, Opendorse. I redirected the separate articles on Kunalic and his partner Blake Lawrence to Opendorse, but the article author reverted me. I propose that both the Kunalic and Lawrence articles be made redirects to Opendorse. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:32, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There are many college players on Wikipedia whose careers were not very notable. See Major Culbert, Lydon Murtha and Nate Swift. All had equal or less notable careers than Kunalic. Kunalic is also the first Bosnian born NFL player which is pretty notable. I propose that both articles remain due to their college football careers as well as their entrepreneurship endeavors with successful companies, one of which is a partner with the NFLPA. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dwarfinterns (talk • contribs) 19:50, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Culbert, Lydon Murtha, and Swift each appeared in a regular season professional (NFL/CFL) game, which is our minimum standard for notability. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:57, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment It is not mentioned on Culbert's page that he appeared in game although I do see the link for cfl.com with his stats. Also, wouldn't the fact that Kunalic and Lawrence are both founders of a Sports Marketing company along with their college playing experience be enough to be notable? I just want to do whatever I need to do to have these articles stand, so if you have any recommendations please let me know. Dwarfinterns (talk) 20:06, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• • No, it wouldn't. I suspect dozens of former college players have been involved in sports marketing. Opendorse itself is only marginally notable. Having three separate articles (one each on Opendorse and on each founder) smacks of promotion/advertising to me. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:51, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - Piotrus, I think you'd be aware by now that AfD isn't for articles that don't have references that "add proper, reliable, in-depth coverage." AfD is for determining if a subject is notable or not and it doesn't appear that your nomination has done any of the WP:BEFORE work to determine that. A nomination that only points out my disagreement with a PROD seems as close to a non-argument as you can get.

Here are a list of references I found in just a few minutes that aren't included in the list already found in the article. In depth interview, LA Weekly coverage of Van Kirk's work, Book about Van Kirk being a "notable", Subject becomes Chili's spokesperson.

Outside of these references and the ones in the article, it seems clear to me, based on the articles about him or pointing him out in USA Today, Variety, LA Weekly, AV Club, and Splitsider, that the subject of this article plays notable role in area of comedy podcasts. He's also a current performer for Upright Citizens Brigade which was started by and produces notable members regularly. He also is a writer for the news website www.Cover32.com. I personally think that he satisfies WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO (point 2) with the independent and significant coverage form reliable sources but I also feel that the subject satisfies point 3 of WP:ENTERTAINER in that his body of work on specific podcasts has been the subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews. WCS100 (talk) 01:31, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

More for Yahoo Movies and Variety about a show the subject writes. WCS100 (talk) 01:58, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@WCS100: You are right this is about notability. And notability does not only require sources, it requires reliable sources. And what I am saying is not that this article is unreferenced (which, I agree with you, is not an AfD problem), but rather, than the existing references I see (including ones you presented) are not reliable, and thus do not help to establish the subject's notability.

Let's start with your book finding. Following your link I cannot get a preview view, but the publisher is Emereo Publishing. From [9]: "So what Roebuck/Tebbo/ Emereo have done is take publically available and randomly selected Wikipedia articles and charge for it." I am afraid that your source is nothing but a printed fork of our article(s).

Next, you find [10]. Well, it may be an in-depth interview; it also appears to be a podcast, an audio-version of blog.

[11] LA Weekly passes RS test; but our subject fails at any kind of in-depth, substanial coverage - he is mentioned there in passing, in a single sentence plus picture caption.

[12] Next, we have a short news blurb in a regional, niche website (" centralized agency founded to share knowledge of "bureau-approved" comedy throughout the Greater Los Angeles area and spread joy in the form of live comedy to all citizens we can possibly reach."). That fails WP:QUESTIONABLE and WP:AUD.

So, unless you can present sources that show him passing GNG/ARTIST, AfD is the right place for him to be. And please, don't just spam links here, but provide a review of them: explain why the source is reliable, and the extent of their coverage of the subject (passing mentions do not count). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 07:02, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete I can't find any substantial sources about him. The best so far is the LA Weekly review of a show he starred in [13], but that's only one source. The refs here are either links to his "performances" (as podcasts), or mentions. The Comedy Bureau is a blog. Link #9 is unrelated (and an empty page). I can't find a reason to keep this, unless someone discovers a few more RS. LaMona (talk) 20:44, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep: This fellow is very much on the edge of the line between sufficient and insufficient note by independent RS. I think, if we scrutinize every source, we can find imperfections, but, taken all in all, they indicate so many discussions that the comedian either passes or is going to pass within a few months. Hithladaeus (talk) 14:05, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Then you are saying WP:TOOSOON, which is an argument for deletion and restoration at a future date. We don't keep articles because we think someone is going to be notable in the near future. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:53, 11 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • I appreciate the help to a newbie, but I actually wasn't saying that. I was suggesting that this person's career is moving so quickly that "TOOSOON" may not be relevant. I did not want to invoke that because the number of appearances and comments he is receiving in the past year, on different platforms, makes it seem like a fairly safe bet. I could be wrong. I often am. However, I do try to work on a "benefit of the doubt goes toward keep." My benefit of doubt is less than a lot of people's, but it still exists. One person thinks it's gullibility, another thinks its cynicism, but I think it's a good faith judgment. (If the guidelines could make the calls by themselves, we people wouldn't be necessary.)

Per these pages [19], [20] as well as [21], Johnson is also performing with Digital Summer and Against All Will, two other notable bands. If the page cannot be kept, it should, at a minimum, be redirected with history to "Love and Death (band)" [or perhaps "Red (American band)"].

X Tour (Ed Sheeran tour)[edit]

I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed WP:NCONCERT TOUR requirement. " It was deprodded by User:AGoodDoctor (creator) with the following rationale "There is loads of information about this tour, however, time just needs to be put in ensuring the range of setlists are uploaded, as well as reviews, which are all on the internet, are put into this article". Well, I am not seeing any reliable sources. Blogs, facebook, niche music sites selling tickets or merchandise, fansite, etc. - those exit, sure. But we need to show more reliable coverage. Not every tour of every band is notable, and it is high time to start pruning the fancruft minor band tour listings that are being spammed here. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:09, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Snow keep - no, not every tour is notable, but nearly completely sold out 179-city world tours featuring one of the top-selling musicians of the past few years are notable. Hmmm, at least I think. Having to add a third show at Wembley Stadium because the first two sell out is probably fancruft minor band tour stuff :-) Google News search: Ed Sheeran + tour + sold out —Мандичка^YO 😜 08:49, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • You don't get to snow with the first comment :P And I am afraid your search is incorrect; you just search for his tours in general. The correct search changes "tour" to "x tour", and shows much fewer hits. I see some that discuss the concert in passing, but only one reliable, on-topic article: mtv.com entry - and that is quite brief. If you disagree, please list better sources here, and discuss their reliability, and extent of their coverage. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:31, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
    • I can snow keep with a first comment because there is no way this is being deleted. I'm not even an Ed Sheeran fan in particular and I recognize when a tour meets GNG. No, the correct search does not have to be "x tour" because many articles will not refer to the tour by that name; it's just "tour" as in his current tour, as in the tour he's been on since last year, as in the tour he's doing to support his current album. Since there's only ever been one other Ed Sheeran tour, that search term will likely bring up relevant articles. Also the tour is also referred to as the Multiply tour (since that is how they pronounce the X). I'm not going to waste time looking for refs on this unless there becomes an actual chance this article will be deleted. —Мандичка^YO 😜 10:33, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
      • Bottom line you have failed to provide a single reliable source. Just saying "Google is full of them" is worthless, because my Google is clearly different from yours. Unless you provide sources for us to discuss, all I see is WP:ITSOBVIOUS-type of an argument. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:03, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - This essentially an ADVERT for a world tour promoting an album. Possibly merge (as a few sentences) to the article on the album with a link to a website listing the events. The promoter will ensure that is kept up to date, but we cannot be sure that this article will be. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:46, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: I can't say, either way. I actually remember passing coverage of the media campaign in English language media (or notice of it) in global segments. I don't doubt that it existed, nor that it was remarked upon and praised. Since it was a public service campaign, it definitely got seen and heard by a large audience (more than many actresses in a single role). Whether a single season media educational initiative generates enough long term reference to need contextualizing (rather than a discussion in another article -- one on public awareness campaigns), I can't decide. If so, then keep. If not, then neutral. Hithladaeus (talk) 19:38, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Reads like an ad campaign for an NGO, which doesn't necessarily make it notable. Can't seem to find much info on the awards it has won, either. I think it should be purged. Solntsa90 (talk) 00:25, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note that on Wikipedia, the absence of citations in an article (as distinct from the non-existence of sources) does not indicate that the subject is not notable. Topic notability is based upon source availability, rather than the state of sourcing in articles. However, sources were added to the article after it was nominated.

• Redirect to Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences#Publications, where it is mentioned. While the journal seems to fail general notability guidelines WP:GNG and WP:NJournals criteria, the existence of and very basic facts about the journal are verifiable. The journal name is a plausible search term. Hence a redirect to a section of the article on the sponsoring institute, containing a list of INFORMS journals, seems reasonable. --Mark viking (talk) 03:53, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't establish that this meets WP:NOTABILITY. Searches turned up information on the town and no evidence of notability for this sub-set of the clan. It seems it can also be spelt Babuzai. I considered a merge or redirect to Yusufzai (Pashtun tribe), where it is not mentioned, but as this entire sub-stub is unreferenced and unverified, I thought it best not to; no evidence that they are worth a mention/redirect. Babozai, Mardan (the town) should be moved to this page - clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and the vast majority of the incoming links to this page were meant for the twon, resolving them now.
