- Rewriting the guideline Misplaced Pages:Please do not bite the newcomers
- Should comments made using LLMs or chatbots be discounted or even removed?
- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was speedy deleted as request from a single user to delete own work. Bearcat (talk) 03:54, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
I no longer need this page. I moved CKMO to VillageNow.net before I realized that VillageNow.net showed up in the categories, such as Defunct radio stations in Canada. Reasons why I moved CKMO to VillageNow.net is that the station is now an internet radio station and that CKMO belongs to a radio station in Orangeville, Ontario as CKMO-FM. Rather than moving the page back to CKMO, I decided to switch it back to CKMO 900 (defunct) to make it less confusing for Wikipedians and readers.
- AFD not necessary; if you do something and then decide that it was wrong and want to delete it, when you're the only person who's ever touched it, then you can just list it as a G7 speedy. Bearcat (talk) 03:54, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

No evidence for existence of this unit beyond the dubious Cardarelli. The word is not in the Oxford English Dictionary. PamD 23:52, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Withdraw now that an entirely different article has been written on the French liquid measure. And I'll add to my "to do list" a plan to create redirects or dab page entries for those Units of measurement in France before the French Revolution. PamD 07:28, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: Googling suggests that "Demiard" is an ancient French liquid measure - and French Misplaced Pages agrees - but this article and Cardarelli declare it to be a UK dry measure. PamD 00:00, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep It's more French than English but I suppose there was some crossover due to trade and other connections. Anyway, there are obviously reasonable alternatives to deletion such as merger with Units of measurement in France before the French Revolution#Volume - Liquid_measures. Please see WP:BEFORE. Andrew D. (talk) 00:10, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect to Units of measurement in France before the French Revolution. There is nothing to "merge" as the treatment in the February 2011 revision was already better than the text in Demiard. Johnuniq (talk) 06:03, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

- Redirect as per Johnuniq. This really is very silly: the article as AfD'd should be deleted. Davidson tries to convert it into a different article, but it still belongs in some sensible topic, f'goodness sake. I removed the Cardarelli ref anyway, since it does not support the current version at all, unless in Cardarelli-speak "UK" means "French/English-speaking" and "dry" means "liquid"; it seems to be a mangled version of the situation in Canada. AAMOF, words like this, which mean "half-of-something", deserve rich dictionary treatment. Imaginatorium (talk) 07:37, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Cardarelli gives it as equivalent to half a pint, which is where it seems to have ended up. That source is therefore reasonably accurate and so should not be discarded to satisfy this bizarre vendetta. Per our editing policy, this is a work-in-progress and there may be more to find. I've only spent a few minutes on it this morning but already my work is disrupted. Tsk. Andrew D. (talk) 08:10, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- So in your view, "UK unit of dry volume equal to half a pint" is an "reasonably"(??) accurate way of saying Canadian unit of liquid volume equal to half a pint". To me it looks like 1 out of 3, but you think that's good enough for WP? There is no "vendetta"; Cardarelli is full of minor errors, and more importantly half-truths. That makes it inappropriate as a reference. Imaginatorium (talk) 09:27, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- The main point of Cardarelli's encyclopedia is that it "converts the huge variety of units from all over the world in every period of recorded history into units of the SI." It would be nice if it provided a detailed history of each unit too but, as it's already 848 pages, one can see why it limited its scope to that particular project. So, it's a valid source for providing the SI equivalence of the units in question and more generally gives some clue as to the nature of the unit. Now, it is our policy that Misplaced Pages is not paper and so we can be more ambitious, aiming to document each unit in all respects. This work is happening on a broad front and we have thousands of articles about obscure units such as the statcoulomb. That one doesn't have any sources at all and there's predictably someone complaining about that too so we shouldn't rush to throw away sources once we have found them. It is our general editing policy to develop such work in mainspace in the fabulous manner of the stone soup — everyone chipping in with morsels until we have a complete meal. Carping because it doesn't taste good yet doesn't seem productive because that's the case with much/most Misplaced Pages content - only 1% of our articles are of good quality and even that figure is debatable. Andrew D. (talk) 13:39, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Un demi, s'il vous plaît I've found the French equivalent now which tells us, "en France jusqu'à nos jours, de commander un « demi » de bière dans les bistrots." In other words, the unit still lives on, after a fashion, when ordering beer and so they link the article to the portail de la bière. As this seems similar to the situation in Australia, where a complex variety of units are used when ordering beer, I'm starting to see a theme here. There was an interesting question in the Guardian recently: Why is the standard UK beer can size 440ml?. I'm still working on that one ... cheers! Andrew D. (talk) 13:54, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- As Cardarelli is happy to promulgate junk like the stupping ton, I'm reluctant to trust any of his 800 pages. And how do we know that today's "demi" of beer has any connection to "demiard" or "ard"? PamD 15:04, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

- Keep - Meets Misplaced Pages:POLITICIAN as a member of a state legislature (Massachusetts House of Representatives). --Hirolovesswords (talk) 23:39, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Massachusetts-related deletion discussions. lavender||lambast 01:09, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep: There are tens of thousands of biographical articles on people for whom the measurable impact on American civilization can't be proven, but I'm curious as to why the nom thinks that has anything to do with Misplaced Pages's notability standards. Quite aside from a prima facie pass on WP:POLITICIAN, the subject plainly passes the GNG. I've got 26 hits on newspapers.com in a span between 1903 and 1922, both well before and well after the criminal case, which certainly gets past ONEEVENT. Ravenswing 05:23, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- I didn't notice the short phrase that he was member of legislature (so much for his notability as politician :-), but since this alone qualifies him, fine with me. Newspaper hit count alone is a dubious argument, but it is a non-issue here now. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:08, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: We're not talking about Google News, we're talking newspapers.com, one of the pay sites that has an agreement with Misplaced Pages to supply editors with free accounts to facilitate article building. Those 26 hits equal 26 ARTICLES mentioning Mancovitz. (And that being said, I'd have thought that you'd want to avoid the subject of dubious arguments in this AfD.) Ravenswing 21:55, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Yep, "mentioning" is the key word. I suggest you to find and review a guideline which uses the language "significant coverage" or something like that. But again, the issue is moot now. Otherwise I sure hell would go and dig through these 26.Staszek Lem (talk) 22:00, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

Non notable actress - Fails NACTOR + GNG
This was originally prodded by Bearian - But I deprodded hoping I could transfer the cites from her Russian article to here but those cites don't seem to match up to the text there, and most if not all cites there seem "Blog type", even those on Google News seem bloggish unfortunately, –Davey2010 23:16, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

- Keep. The article is inadequate, but anyone this busy snagging "pretty girl" roles is going to be notable. Pax 03:00, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
- IMDB can't be used, Granted she's been in a few films but none of them are notable otherwise there would be a lot more cites and we both wouldn't be here now. –Davey2010 03:21, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
- I didn't say IMDB should be ref'd in the article; I simply used it as a probability gauge.
- ...the main problem with finding RS for Russian subjects is that you won't find much unless you search by the Cyrillic lettering (i.e., "Арзамасова"). The following appear to be RS: ,,.. Pax 05:06, 27 February 2015 (UTC)

Fails corporate notability guidelines. There is no depth of coverage in reliable secondary sources to support notability. Fails general notability and It does not matter who they are partnered with.
Most, if not all of their coverage on the web is PR coverage. Their references include a link to a golf directory, their own web site, a hospital biography page and one news article that mentions why they were founded. JBH (talk) 23:07, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

- Gemigem, bibliographies are encouraged under the MOS. The problem is that most of the references either don't discuss the author directly (think of it this way. If you were to add a fact about the author, you would need to be able to add a link to a third party source that says that same fact), or are blogs (not considered reliable sources around here). Maybe once you add some prose in along with reliable sources backing it up it may pass the test, but at the moment I don't see enough to convince me it will. DiscantX 10:52, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

Dennis Rodman clearly is notable. His children's book isn't. The article is not an appropriate summary of the given references, which agree that there is very little information on the book, and instead of calling it "most anticipated children's book of 2012" rather mercilessly mock Rodman for writing it. So in summary: Not a notable topic, spammy article that's factually wrong. Huon (talk) 20:09, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

The result was delete. The discussion below has demonstrated that the cited sources are only passing mentions (regular issues of competition results and club rosters). I should note that the primary concern here is the depth of biographical coverage in cited sources. The disagreement below, on whether Odell Terry competed at a sufficiently high level, is largely inconsequential to notability (in the way Misplaced Pages uses the word).

No indication of notability, a yet to be broadcast TV show by a non notable person whose article has been repeatedly deleted Theroadislong (talk) 19:29, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
This is ridiculous... look around at the articles that you allow to exist on wikipedia... So much for having an open forum for the internet. The real reason this should exist is because Katie Nolan keeps getting deleted.
This is why many people consider wikipedia a joke. I don't have time to fluff up these articles right now, but every time I create them, so others can find them they get deleted. meanwhile pages like this https://en.wikipedia.org/Leah_Jenner & https://en.wikipedia.org/Brandon_Jenner exist? my original articles had more interesting information than these two junk pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dmartin17 (talk • contribs) 19:34, 23 February 2015
- Delete per proposal. No evidence of notability and frankly terribly written. EoRdE6 19:37, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment. There appears to be enough coverage at this point to warrant a Katie Nolan article, so my preferred outcome would be to redirect this future show to her page, assuming it gets (re)created. Gongshow talk 19:48, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- But until that page is created it should be deleted. If that pages is made the creator can redirect this there. EoRdE6 19:56, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment The Katie Nolan page is currently protected after being deleted three times. I would point out to Dmartin17 that Misplaced Pages is not, and never has been, an 'open forum'. It is an encyclopaedia. There is a policy WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS which explains that the existence of one article does not mean than another article should exist too. Those other pages might need looking at closer. If the only intention is that people should get information, why use a place that is 'a joke'? Katie Nolan surely has a website, and there are always places like Facebook - used by some of the biggest companies and many celebrities - where information can be conveyed without the irksome restrictions that we have here. There is, unfortunately, an attitude in many places that one MUST have a Misplaced Pages article, and the Alexa rating of Misplaced Pages is rather high which deoesn't help dealing with this mind set. As a non-American and a non-TV watcher, I'm leaving the debate here to others who are more knowledgeable. Peridon (talk) 21:17, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
DeleteSince there is no viable redirect target, and the show doesn't meet WP:GNG, at least yet. I have no idea if Katie Nolan is notable or not, but the author apparently chooses to complain about the article not existing instead of improving the draft they created.

- Actually, judo competitors need to qualify. Every country is not entitled to a competitor. Only the host nation gets an automatic entrant. You still haven't shown that he's actually competed at the highest level. You keep repeating the same arguments, but without addressing other people's comments. No matter how many times you say it, winning a two persion senior citizen division is not the same as competing at the highest level against dozens of competitors from other countries.

I agree that there's coverage there, but I don't think the coverage is necessarily good enough. — kikichugirl 03:28, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. The current article is crap, but the topic is notable. This is one of the oldest and most significant surf lifesaving clubs in Australia, and it doesn't take much digging to see that you could easily find enough WP:RS to create an article. I am not interested enough in the topic to do said work, but at a bare minimum this should not be blocked from being recreated if someone does decide to write a better article. The Drover's Wife (talk) 03:47, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment. Having just had my suspicions confirmed, I think there is actually a separate issue here that I'd urge people to think about. The editor who wrote this article, User:Pidzz, has an entire (and long) history that is full of either a) creating articles on notable topics that are so badly sourced they're deleted as non-notable, b) creating articles on blatantly non-notable topics, and c) redirecting articles on notable topics to lists and places that contain no information on them. This is a classic example of the mess he leaves behind: a topic that should have an article gets a blatantly crap one which gets AfDd, deleted, and then there's a discouragement to actually create a decent one. I presume he's well-intentioned, but he doesn't respond to messages and it's an ongoing mess that is impacting upon content. The Drover's Wife (talk) 03:51, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

- Keep - the club is a national icon and a by-word for surf life saving in Australia. The club featured as the centrepiece of a nationally televised Dulux campaign (here) and featured prominently in print and television advertising. It's certainly "coverage", though perhaps not "in depth". It stands to reason, though, that a club recognisable enough that only the word "Tamarama" need be flashed up on the screen for people to know they are talking about the surf club, is probably notable. My argument would be that it passes WP:GEOFEAT as a historical landmark for the surf life saving movement in Australia which is, itself, a feature of international tourism campaigns, Olympics opening ceremonies and official state welcomes. It doesn't inherit notability just by being a surf club and I'm not suggesting we go creating articles for the thousands of others; this one is genuinely unique. That the article might have needed work is not a reason for deletion. St★lwart 23:22, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

- Comments Not quite done with this yet. Being an olympic alternate does not show notability by itself but National Champion might. US has never been very strong in Judo but I think a case can be made that this is notable. I would like to see the National Championship results in the article with the correct references.

This article was previously nominated for deletion in 2007. Since then Amtrak has ceased serving the station. It's still used as a stop by the county bus service, the Tehama Rural Area Express (TRAX), but that's all. Bus stations aren't presumptively notable and I don't see that this stop passes the GNG. Though I favored keeping in 2007, I think that I must have thought it was an actual train station, which was not the case then or now. There's no obvious merge candidate absent an article on TRAX. If the article is kept, it needs to move to either Corning Transportation Center or Corning Intermodal Transit Station as there's no Amtrak connection whatsoever.

comment - rotten tomatoes does not establish notability, neither does imdb. I'm not sure what you mean by the "home videoes...not the real" comment, but I think your answer might be in WP:WHATABOUTX. If not, please clarify. Also, please sign comments with 4 "~"'s Deunanknute (talk) 00:22, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
- I should probably clarify this a little. What Deunanknute means is that profiles on Rotten Tomatoes or IMDb cannot show notability since all it shows is that the person exists as a director, actor, or in some position. Now if there were reviews for Hill's work on Rotten Tomatoes by verified critics (the ones that make up the Tomatometer) then those could show notability for him, but it'd have to be for works where he served in an extremely major position like a lead actor or director. From what I can see on RT, none of Hill's work has gained any critical reviews. Now as far as IMDb goes, that's considered to be a routine database listing and at most it can be used to back up small, trivial details but even then that's sometimes questionable because of how easy it is for people to create profiles and alter them with little to no oversight. Notability can only be established through coverage in independent and reliable sources per WP:RS. Sites like Search my Trash are not considered to be reliable and Gadget Advisor could be, but I can't seem to verify what type of editorial oversight it has (if any) so I can't see where that'd be usable either. Something like a review of one of his films on Film Threat or an article through Variety about him would be the type of thing that you'd need to show notability.

Old Russian state
- Old Russian state (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
- It looks like an wp:original research. The problem is that there is no difference between "Old Rus' state" and "Old Russian state" in Russian language: both terms could be translated as "Древнерусское государство". Secondly, the term "Древнерусское государство" is used in historiography not from 2011. For example this term was used in title of the book of Historian Michail Artamonov in 1939. See: История СССР. Т. 1. С древнейших времен до образования древнерусского государства. Макет/ Под общей редакцией М. И. Артамонова. — Кн. 1—2. — М.-Л.: Изд-во АН СССР, 1939.
- The term Old Russian/Old Rus' state is just a historiographical construct like the term Kievan Rus. Sure there is a strong debate in historiography which term is better for describing Rus' state, but both terms are popular in historiography in Russia as well as in Ukraine. So I think, that the problem of translation of the term "Древнерусское государство" from Russian, or "Давньоруська держава" from Ukrainian should be just cleared in the article Old Rus' state. Ушкуйник (talk) 19:03, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

- I don't see how we could merge to Old Rus' state, as that is just a redirect to Kievan Rus'. --A D Monroe III (talk) 23:38, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: If Old Russian state is a propaganda term, then it merits an article separate from Kievan Rus'. If it's just another name for Kievan Rus', it should be a redirect. The OP states that its WP:OR to say its propaganda. It's true that the Russian sources don't state it's propaganda, but they wouldn't even if it were. In the end, it's not up to us to reason about it being propaganda or not; we need a reliable secondary source. Without that, it's probably better turned into a redirect. --A D Monroe III (talk) 23:38, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
- Dear A D Monroe III, Old Rus' state and Kievan Rus' are two historiographical terms, which are used to describe so called medieval Rus' state, or Rus' land; both terms are popular in historical works in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. I can bring many different sources to demonstrate it. There is only one problem: the problem of translation in English, because there are two ways to translate the term "Древнерусское государство". That's why I think, that this article is just an wp:original research, which based on misunderstanding of language specific. Ушкуйник (talk) 00:31, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
- @Ушкуйник: Either I don't understand your point, or you mine. Except when you use phrases like "I think it's OR" (which implies more OR), I've agreed with you. We need an independent source to say it's propaganda, not just Russian sources that use it like it might be propaganda. If we cannot find such sources, this article should probably become a redirect to Kievan Rus'. --A D Monroe III (talk) 20:59, 19 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: The article title should almost certainly be a redirect to Kievan Rus'. The content might be usable in Rus (name)#From Rus' to Russia or somewhere similar, as current illustrative material relating to the terminological discussion there - but, if used that way, it probably needs to be rewritten to avoid its current use of implicit SCAREQUOTES and balanced by similar material relating to other naming choices for Kievan Rus'.

Misplaced Pages is still not for news, even news from 1989, if it didn't garner any significant coverage beyond a few days' news cycle. (No hits on this in or after March 1989.) Even in 2013, when the killer was released, there was no significant coverage in reliable sources of this incident, just a list. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 16:01, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

- Delete as per Roscelese. There are a enormous number of Palestinian civilians, and children killed by Israeli forces (only an extremely small number of which are included in List of Palestinian civilian casualties in the Second Intifada for one specific period. I would oppose articles on each of these, just as I oppose articles on every Israeli death, unless, in either case, the incident is subsequently taken up with some insistence by news sources the world around (Palestinian deaths aren't, of course, but that is not the reason for stacking Misplaced Pages with obituary notices like this. I see now that we have by the way, a Palestinian stone-throwing article. The title precludes any mention of Israeli settler stone-throwing, which is quite common, not only at American consulate figures, as anyone familiar with reports from Christian Peacemaker Teams in that area will know.Nishidani (talk) 20:32, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

- Those are the kind of high quality academic sources that cover an otherwise rather obscure death of a Palestinian, Hani al Shami. I don't think that, given thjis extensive book coverage. one should write an article on the Death of Hani al Shami, even though it was the object of a trial and a famous poem in Hebrew). The fact is, these articles are predominantly on Israelis, and are designed to skew the data base to create the impression that terror is predominantly a Palestinian problem. Now, given this reflex approval process, I look forward to NPOV-minded editors balancing the article with one on al-Shami. Of course, only joking. It won't happen.

- Hi Malik. Did you have in mind subsection 2? The examples given there seem distinguishable: "routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities". Nor is this "breaking news". And the coverage is over years, on more than one continent, in books and newspapers. I'm considering this, and know your !votes are thoughtful, so thought I would ask. Epeefleche (talk) 05:57, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Epeefleche and thank you for your message. Yes, I had in mind bullet #2 of WP:NOTNEWS, which begins "Misplaced Pages considers the enduring notability of persons and events." In my opinion, the enduring notability of Staff Sergeant Meisner's death is not evident from the burst of coverage in 1989. — Malik Shabazz /Stalk 03:18, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- I see. I wonder if what is meant by the "enduring notability" of the event, which "Misplaced Pages considers", is not best understood by looking at the examples then given -- of what does not constitute enduring notability leading to inclusion. Those are "routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities" and (sometimes) "recent developments". It strikes me that this event is very easily distinguishable from all of the NOTNEWS examples given to explain what is being viewed as not appropriate for inclusion. Plus, while the coverage is largely from 1989, it is not limited to 1989 -- but actually continued years later. Thoughts? Epeefleche (talk) 08:23, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep, sources indicate notability. Everyking (talk) 05:49, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep Meisner's death (perhaps because of the dramatic and unusual use of a concrete block as a murder weapon) was widely covered in the international press when it occurred; it had an impact on events at the time: the Israeli Army immediately put a lock-down on Nablus for 10 days while it searched house-to-house for his killers; the house form which the block was thrown was demolished; PLO sources asserted that the lockdown led them to scupper rapprochement; the release of the convicted murders decades later received significant press attention; and the incident continues to resonate, it is rehearsed in a 2015 popular book (http://www.amazon.com/Children-Stone-Power-Music-Hard/dp/1608198138). — Preceding unsigned comment added by E.M.Gregory (talk • contribs) 13:21, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Look at the hundreds of redlinked Palestinian victims of Israeli assassination operations at List of Israeli assassinations. All of those incidents were reported in multiple sources. I did most of the list, but I would strongly oppose attempts to convert each casualty into a wiki article of this type. As for the mode of killing being unusual, well it occurred 2 years into the First Intifada, where, after Rabin reportedly ordered soldiers to break the bones of the teenagers leading the unarmed insurgency, 12 youths were beaten to death by IDF soldiers in Gaza alone in the first year. a commonplace technique was to bind and gag youths, pin them down, and use rocks and rifles to smash their arms or femurs, as you can see one minute into this video. 10% of the 1,000 odd Palestinians killed during that unarmed protest at the occupation died of such methods, which are, in warfare, as peculiar as using a concrete block to kill a soldier raiding one's home town. None of this is worth individual coverage. It should go in lists, without comment. Nishidani (talk) 20:49, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Delete. Yet another dead Israeli soldier. Sad for his family, undoubtedly, but no more notable then any other soldier killed in conflict. As to there being sources, of course there are. There are sources on every single Western soldier killed in Afghanistan or Iraq too. That doesn't mean they're all notable. If we go down the route of having articles on every single soldier from a country with high internet usage who is killed then we end up turning into a memorial. And not only that, but we end up making it look like soldiers killed in the internet age are more worthy of articles than those killed before it simply because of internet coverage. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:57, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Necrothesp, Did you notice that Meisner died before the advent of the internet age? His death received widespread coverage in the the old-fashioned printed newspapers of a long-ago era the death of death of Israeli soldiers on patrol was rare. This is not a memorial, it is an article about a death that received widespread coverage at the time, and that continues to be written about.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:22, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Question Is it proper for an editor to remove material from an article written about this death by a notable person Stephen Flatow in a newspaper in 2014 (http://www.algemeiner.com/2014/01/01/palestinian-terrorists%E2%80%99-forgotten-weapon-murder-by-stoning/) and for the same editor to remove material from an Israeli government website? I ask because it seems circular to me for the article to be considered for deletion on grounds that there is not sufficient coverage, or that there is not sufficient recent coverage, and for another editor to remove significant, recent coverage while this debate is going forward.E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:55, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Coverage needs to be in-depth coverage from reliable, third-party sources. An army writing about its own soldier being killed on its own website never adds to the soldier's notability and should be left out of this discussion a priori. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 16:09, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Whether or not it counts towards notability, that is not a reason to delete it from the article. Our articles are replete with sources that are proper in the article, though they do not count towards notability. If that were the case, you would never see a Misplaced Pages article quoting a US government statement as to anything where it was not a third party. That's obviously not how it works. Epeefleche (talk) 19:45, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- I was responding to a question about significant coverage in the context of the deletion discussion. Whether the sources are appropriate at all is a different matter. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 21:58, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Understood. If the sources are appropriate (and they appear to be, from what I can see), I think the better course is to not delete them -- especially during the course of a notability discussion. Even if they do not count towards notability. Deleting appropriate sources is always a bad idea. And deleting them during a deletion discussion properly raises eyebrows. The better course, I would suggest, would be to point out in the AfD discussion that "refs x and y do not count towards notability because ..." Best. Epeefleche (talk) 00:13, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
- Weak keep, while the individual Binyamin Meisner has received significant coverage in multiple reliable sources, thus passing WP:GNG, the individual is primarily notable for a single event, his death, therefore it falls under WP:BIO1E (and thus why there are those who feel WP:NOTMEMORIAL applies) Thus the question that needs to be asked is whether the event that is the death pass WP:EVENT. It can be easily shown that due to the subject passing GNG that the event received significant coverage, now the question is whether the event has received WP:PERSISTENT coverage.

Repercussions section in article say "this killing... derailed incipient reconciliation between Israel and the PLO" which shows repercussions beyond this single event. It might need more expansion but indicates that WP:NOTNEWS rule does not apply. Ashtul (talk) 09:05, 25 February 2015 (UTC)- It's identified as one of several events that, combined, did so - but possibly more to the point, pretty much anything that happens in Israel or Palestine delays some peace talks that are allegedly about to happen. It's a non-indicator at this point. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 14:28, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

- The last Palestinian killed by Israeli citizens is Mohammed Abu Khdeir and I suspect any of the respondents to this deletion request haven't looked at it or even actively edited it. That page is ~70k and there is no doubt it deserves that amount of attention and not only because of the heinous way in which he was killed but because citizens took the law into their hand and avenged the kidnapped, not to mention the repercussions.
- I tried to think when is the previous case when an Israeli civilian have killed a Palestinian, even used Timeline of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, 2014 which is being nurtured by a fellow editor and I just couldn't. I came up with Khaled Odeh and Tayeb Odeh from Huwara and Einas Khalil of Sinjul but these cases are more complex and can be compared to Netaniel Arami, neither have it's own article. Against the belief of some, it just doesn't happen.
- Roscelese, what led to the creation of this article is probably your RfC which concluded in consensus against inclusion of incidents that do not have their own Misplaced Pages article. It is possible that changing this decision will eliminate the need for a separate article. Nobody doubt (I believe) this event should be mentioned somewhere.

source to verify http://ecp.gov.pk/Misc/Parties-with-Symbols.pdf Bolterc (talk) 14:04, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep The list provided by the nominator is pointless because it was published in 2013 and the parties were not formed until 2014. They do appear in this later list, for example. There are various issues with the article, including determining the common name and perhaps needing a split because two different parties are contain in one page, but the prima facie evidence is that these things do exist and are recognised by the Election Commission of Pakistan. That they may be jumping on a naming bandwagon that is vaguely connected to the Aam Aadmi Party in India is completely irrelevant: the phrase aam aadmi (meaning common man, and with various transliterated spellings) is common to both countries, as is the endemic corruption that they allegedly campaign against. We have Labour Parties, Socialist Parties, Communist Parties etc in numerous countries - why should this be any different? - Sitush (talk) 14:39, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment This is a question of notability and the guidelines at WP:NGO might be helpful. The article references independent coverage at or around the time of the party's launch, but nothing yet that indicates it has achieved national status. (I notice WP:NGO is marked as disputed or under discussion, and that some voices at Misplaced Pages talk:Notability (organizations and companies)/Archive 10#Question about WP:NONPROFIT would accept regional status if the region was large enough.)

The result was delete. The article lacks good sourcing and neither in this AfD, nor in the previous one (closed as "no consensus" for good reason) were good sources brought forward. Should Shen (programming language) be kept, there would be no objection of briefly describing Qi in that article. Randykitty (talk) 13:52, 4 March 2015 (UTC)

Lacks reliable independent secondary sources to establish notability as required by WP:GNG. All the sources cited in the article are primary. Google searches failed to turn up anything useful. Previous AfD outcomes were keep in 2007 and no consensus in 2012. There wasn't any evidence the subject was notable 8 years ago and there still isn't any today. Msnicki (talk) 08:20, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Tentative delete Not helping is that a lot of programming pseudocode uses Q-(base)-i as iterative variables. Outside of that distraction, I don't see much independent reliable sources outside of a subreddit, Google Code pages and wikis, and other forums. 野狼院ひさし u/t/c 13:16, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

- Shen (programming language) has been tagged for COI, notability and primary sources for 3 years. I've nominated it also for deletion at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Shen (programming language). Msnicki (talk) 10:30, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
- keep There's a vast world of programming language development beyond VisualLisp or whatever dusted-down dinosaur the Seattle behemoth is trying to tell us is their bright new hope this week. Languages like Qi and Shen are important steps in this path, even if no-one builds the next Pinterest out of them (WP went after the Erlang article a while back. Can Scala or Clojure survive next?)
- For chapter and verse on why Qi is significant and why WP should keep the article, I refer the interested reader to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Qi (programming language) (2nd nomination) Andy Dingley (talk) 11:20, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment. Here's the problem I have with the argument that the work represents "an important step". No one's argued anyone's using Qi or Shen and the author, Mark Tarver, is an academic, so I'm inclined to test the claim of importance in the way we often do in academia, which is to ask how often the work has been cited. Here's a Google scholar search on Tarver's papers. His paper on Qi has received only 3 citations and his paper on Shen has received only 2. Drilling down, three of those combined 5 citations are by Tarver himself, leaving these papers with only one citation each by anyone other than the author. Within the STEM disciplines, a significant paper is generally understood to be one that receives over 1000 citations. Qi and Shen are not only not important, almost no one's even noticed they exist. Msnicki (talk) 20:11, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
- Strong delete For exactly the same reasons as during the previous nomination: we could only find some very trivial mentions of this language, well below the usual notability standard for programming languages. None of those were in sources usable as independent references, which now, three years after the previous nomination, are still completely lacking from the article. As this lanauge seems to have been superseded by Shen (programming language) in the mean time, nothing is likely to change about this situation. The only reasons why the closing admin decided there was "no consensus" during the last nomination is because he did not seem to have taken the canvassing on the external Qi mailing list into account. —Ruud 10:06, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
- Comment. See my comment in Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Shen (programming language) for details, but in short, ideally would be merged with Shen article. But at best wonky licensing has caused both languages to be stillborn :-(, and at this point it's clear that's not going to change, so I can't argue for notability.

- Delete Fails WP:GNG. The article's listed sources are unreliable and do not prove the subject's notability. BenLinus1214 03:56, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep – A rather weak keep, because coverage is pretty thin (studio musician). But he may meet #C7 and #C10 of WP:MUSICBIO. There is one very good source, the long quote. There was a better source for playing on the Emmy award winning score , when he sold his home. His credits (1978 to 2014) are listed at discogs, which is a crowd-sourced site and not exactly an RS. But these lists are usually pretty reliable as they are nothing more than transcriptions of credits and liner notes, and the contributors are pretty conscientious about it. For all its limitations, discogs is the best source I know of for this kind of information. And I'm not bothered so much by the fact that the contributors are SPAs. From the comments on the talk page, they seem to be people from the music industry in LA who know his work and think he should have an article. – Margin1522 (talk) 04:43, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Discogs is not reliable per WP:ALBUM/SOURCES. Snuggums (talk / edits) 04:45, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, know about the rule that user-generated content is never reliable. That's why it was a weak keep. We're all making rather weak arguments here. The nom objects to the article's creators, even though in theory articles "are not judged based on who created them, how active that creator is or was on Misplaced Pages" (WP:INVOLVE). We have an objection that the listed sources are weak, even though in theory !voters at AfD are supposed to search for additional sources (WP:BEFORE). Or maybe that applies only to the nom. I don't know. Every article that arrives at AfD has problems. It's easy to apply blanket rule or look only at the problems. If you look at the thousands of transclusions for {{Discogs artist}}, it's also clear that our authors want readers to know about it. There would be an uproar if we tried to delete that, even if it's only used in External links. I'm offering it here only as evidence that if Discogs says he has close to 300 credits, then it's very likely that we would find those credits if we actually went out and looked. – Margin1522 (talk) 08:23, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

With a bit of effort, I think sources could be found for the earlier editions as well. There has been a total of 38 editions of the event with more to come, merging all of them would create a long pile of list, too hard to navigate. --Zayeem 10:11, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

- Keep in some form. These are national film awards of a large country with a substantial English-speaking population. As Kmzayeem notes, sourcing is readily found for recent years. There's information about these awards at the websites of the Bangladesh Film Censor Board and the Ministry of Information. A basic GBooks search shows books do exist that cover the topic, even if we can't easily read them online.

- Keep per Zayeem and Arxiloxos. The film awards are notable per the sources listed by the former and the latter points out our need to expand our coverage geographically. The year-by-year lists are typical WP:SPINOFF articles of National Film Awards (Bangladesh) which would be too long if these were all merged into it. This approach is typical of how we handle national film awards. See, e.g. for 2012: 84th Academy Awards and 65th British Academy Film Awards. 24.151.10.165 (talk) 19:16, 19 February 2015 (UTC)

- Keep Normally we do make separate articles for national awards like this. The general content for the individual awards can also be expanded--there are likely to be sources for the ceremonies, etc. Of course, lack of English language coverage is not a reason for deletion--if that is indeed the case--there may be a significant print literature on Bangladeshi film. The names of winners for the major awards should be red-linked, because receiving a national award is sufficient justification for an article, and this will encourage them to be written.

Keep, Not Unreliable. Not promotional . This article is fully referenced rightly. User:Nijam122 (User talk:Nijam122) , 16 February 2015 (UTC) --Stricken through double keep !vote. One is required to !vote only once, however, may comment as many times they want to. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 22:27, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

The Article is not for promotional. This is just for basic Information with exact references.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Nijam122 (talk • contribs) 15:44, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
- The two bibliographic books are enough for authentic and accuracy. Its not promotional and not private and not personally self information. Deletion of this article is not good. This is just for basic information. Its not promotional. All references are accurately placed. User:Nijam122 1:06, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
- I moved this from a separate part of the AfD page. It was a keep vote but since he's already voted I've left off the "keep" part of it. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 05:25, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
- Strong Delete No secondary reliable source , fails basic verifiability test, written by a fan as a fanpageSummichum (talk) 07:55, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep -I've fixed the article removing unsourced contents and unreliable/self-published sources. For an organization established in 1876 -having substantial coverage in 2013- and more than hundred hits on Google Books -, is an indication of notability. Nominator is requested to take a look at current shape of article and either expand the deletion rationale or withdraw their nomination. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 08:16, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - Dear Mehra, you have fixed the promotional tone, but still it does not meet the notability guide line. One ref is from online news site, that mainly focuses on its founders rather than the activities of the organization. So I Still hold my position in that. Ibrahim Husain Meraj (talk) 08:54, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
- @Ibrahim Husain Meraj: -Quote from my previous comment -For an organization established in 1876 -having substantial coverage in 2013- and more than hundred hits on Google Books -, is an indication of notability. The required criteria is that sources must "exist" not that they are all "accessible" or "available" right about now. Anupmehra -Let's talk! 10:59, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, — Coffee // have a cup // beans // 01:17, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- KeepIt seems there are now sufficient references. DGG ( talk ) 19:10, 24 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep Me and DGG have same opinion . Yes , right , All the references are enough... --101.218.183.116 (talk) 16:53, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- Delete. Over-weaning boosterism warrants WP:HAMMERTIME. "This article is fully referenced rightly." -- Pure baloney from editors who've been around long enough to know better. The four listed sources (as of 2/26) are junk, in-passing mentions (e.g., "peace vigil held at...", etc). Just another madrasa in a slum. Part of an apparent ongoing effort to flood Misplaced Pages with every single trivial mention of anything Islamic related (which each successful beachhead then paving the way for WP:Inherited article attempts).

The result was keep. The AfD has run its course (7 days) so I will just close this as "keep" instead of "speedy keep". Consensus indicates it should be kept either way. (non-admin closure) ceradon (talk • contribs) 04:05, 2 March 2015 (UTC)

Delete Even the parts that aren't outright glorifications are written with a subjective POV and a thoroughly inappropriate style. The whole thing would have to be rewritten. WP:TNT. —Largo Plazo (talk) 00:29, 16 February 2015 (UTC)- Keep Well, the whole thing has pretty much been rewritten. Notability is well established. —Largo Plazo (talk) 16:11, 26 February 2015 (UTC)

- Comment I agree with User:Largoplazo, the article should be rewritten. However, the subject seems to be notable and well known as a 'controversial' blogger in her country, see (Ventures Africa Magazine), (Premium Times), (Modern Ghana) etc. We wouldn't discuss her notability if she was from the US, I guess. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 07:27, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
- I guess the question is whether this coverage is substantial enough or mostly just idle gossip column stuff. If we are to keep the article, which I am not saying we should, I'd certainly recommend cutting it down dramatically to just a few verifiable facts and to see if we can find an animal sanctuary willing to re-home all those bloody peacocks. --DanielRigal (talk) 21:24, 16 February 2015 (UTC
- Comment: The subject of the article clearly meet WP:GNG
but I think WP:TNT applies, we should blow the article up and rewrite it or reduce it to a stub. Wikic¤l¤gy 21:16, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

- Keep I rewrote the article removing much of the kruft, promotional sounding sections, and unsourced statements. I included the references mentioned in the discussion above as well as some others I found. The article that is left is much shorter and all but a couple sentences are referenced with inline citations that do work. Ikeji seems to be quite notable based on the press about her in her country. There are a total of 16 references that discuss her some in in substantial pieces. Please let me know if anyone feels the tone needs more work and we can fix that. @Largoplazo @Vejvančický @DanielRigal @Wikicology @Wgolf - I would respectfully ask you each to give the article a re-look, and consider your vote again. Also, any more suggestions on ways to improve it so it could possibly be kept would be appreciated. WordSeventeen (talk) 03:46, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep: Subject of the article clearly meet WP:BASIC. She had been significantly discussed in multiple independent reliable sources, enough to meet our inclusion criteria. Wikic¤l¤gy 02:27, 26 February 2015 (UTC)
- Keep: The controversial subject of this article has been discussed in significant detail by several notable publications in Nigeria, including ThisDay and Premium Times to name a few. Significant coverage can be seen here. Versace1608 (Talk)
