Article written like a self-promoting resume. Not notable enough as a photographer. No non-trivial coverage on news and media found.

- Weak keep, on the basis Akash has won a number of significant awards, as proven by the UK news articles. He seems to be a widely exhibited international photographer. The excessive tag-bombing last month was not entirely justified. Of course, I'm not convinced everything on that list is actually an award and the article could do with better secondary sourcing.

- Keep. Represented by Panos Pictures. (Which is currently a red link, which just goes to show that Wikipedia is a bit ... challenged.) Poor article, dismally sourced, on somebody who is clearly noteworthy. If there are indeed many photographers of similar profile in Bangladesh, I hope we are gonna make a directory of all of them on Wikipedia.

Appears to be a non notable "award mill". Some mentions online, but those are mostly blogs and industry publications, not mainstream reliable sources. Wikipedia really doesn't need an article on every award mill in existence. Additionally, I am nominating:

- Speedy delete as Housekeeping, and move Bombay Time (time zone) -> Bombay Time. Abecedare (talk) 21:42, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment 1st entry does meet MOS:DABMENTION and there is a very similar see also I've added. I think it is borderline whether this should be a requested move Bombay Time to Bombay Time (disambiguation), and the time zone put at the primary, or just establish time zone as primary with hatnote(s). Boleyn (talk) 08:24, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: No need for a dab page: add both hatnote links to the time zone article and move it to the base name (ie Boleyn's 2nd option). Needs to be a formal WP:RM of the time zone article, I suppose. PamD 09:37, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Have added the hatnotes to Bombay Time (time zone). @Wgolf: would you like to withdraw the nomination so we can put this up at WP:RM? (I'd have done it myself but I think it probably gets complicated to have an AfD and a RM going on simlutaneously) PamD 09:44, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

- Thanks: RM now at Talk:Bombay Time (time zone) PamD 16:42, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
Follow-up comment: "Keep" doesn't seem quite accurate as a description of the outcome here. As I understand it, the outcome is to move the discussion to Talk:Bombay Time (time zone), where an RM request has been opened. The outcome of that RM might confirm the suggestion to delete the dab page that was the topic of this AfD. —BarrelProof (talk) 18:28, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

- Comment Yes, Astrocog, I think it is, but Tom.Reding may want to comment here, because Tom asked me to stop redirecting the asteroids below the number 2000. Boleyn (talk) 14:37, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment I'm just reflecting the consensus I noticed earlier this year here regarding another user redirecting asteroids <= 2000, which were eventually unredirected. As long as the relevant projects are notified, I don't care.
- It might be more appropriate for you to do the notification, however, since the number of users watching these pages is probably low. I'm glad 65.94.43.89 happened on these.
- Redirect My opinion, if the only information on these pages can also be fully expressed in a list. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅contribs ⋅dgaf) 16:44, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- AFAIR, the idea was that for asteroids <2000 that each be evaluated independently and individually, and not end up in bundle nominations or bot-assisted-redirection or mass redirects (such as AWB) -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 05:59, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

The second AFD from Template:Unidentified decedent after fellow non-notable not-news subject Lyle Stevik. The most notable thing about this article is that it hosts the authors own original illustration of the subject.
Wikipedia is not a newspaper. There is no historical significance to this death. Aside from the local news sources, the subject has been the subject of a single CNN article in their cold cases column, and an appearance in a forensics trade publication. This is not significant coverage, every national newspaper covers more notable topics on every single page, every single day. - hahnchen 19:41, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep Once again, subject is notable per WP:Victim and WP:ONEEVENT. CNN is still a nationwide publication, yes? Still a reasonable amount of recognition if the topic makes national news. See related discussion at this link which adequately applies to this nomination. As mentioned in the AFD for Pemiscot County Does, the fact that this article contains "amateur self-illustrated portraits" has absolutely no relevance to indicate if the cases are notable but simply reduces the amount of non-free images to be uploaded --GouramiWatcher(?) 19:45, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

This is difficult, because I don't speak Bulgarian. I couldn't establish that this street meets WP:NPLACE, WP:GNG or any other aspect of WP:NOTABILITY. It has been tagged as such for over 3 years (tagged by MilkStraw532. It has mentions online/in the news, but not enough that I am convinced it is notable. Boleyn (talk) 19:20, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep - WP:GNG explicitly permits the use of non-English sources as evidence of notability. Just a few seconds of searching yields plenty of coverage from the likes of Bulgaria Dnes, bTV (Bulgaria) and TV7 (Bulgaria). [2][3] [4] That's probably why Andreas Philopater de-prodded the nom's prod. English language editors not speaking a foreign language or not bothering to do a translate of web-available foreign language work is not a reason to delete an article. --Oakshade (talk) 04:41, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment Oakshade, there is no need to be rude. From reading my nomination, you can see that I have written that it has mentions online and in the news. My concern is whether they meet the criteria of being significant mentions and whether the mentions add up to WP:NOTABILITY. Boleyn (talk) 06:26, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- By reding your nomination you indicate that you didn't know if it was notable because you "don't speak Bulgarian." Not being being able to determine the significance of coverage in non-English sources, or not even trying to (see WP:BEFORE), is not a reason to AfD an article. AfD is used when we truly believe a topic doesn't merit an article. --Oakshade (talk) 03:51, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
- No, that's your total misreading. I stated that 'this is difficult, because I don't speak Bulgarian.' That is a little different from 'This should be deleted, because I don't speak Bulgarian.' The rest of my discussion - ' It has mentions online/in the news, but not enough that I am convinced it is notable' shows clear WP:BEFORE.

- Delete - This article contains content that is written totally like an advertisement. Even though Gopinath is not at all a significant entrepreneur to be listed on Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a platform for people who have just received some awards, even though the awards are also not significant. Preeti Sharma's Knowledge (talk) 18:57, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep - In support to Keep the article I would like to share these independent links to enhance the credibility of the article and even Jimmy Wales has supported against the vandalism on this article two times. None of the News Agencies have used this article as the source of reference. Even the press about Suhas Gopinath by The Economist is also a validation. I am surprised that this article that has been there for so many years is flagged for deletion, request to independently verify the news sources below:

Note to Closing Admin - I wouldn't be surprised to recognize the above 'Keep' vote by Suhas Gopinath himself in order to defend his article from getting deleted.

- (refactored) Very Strong Delete - I have made a research on this article. Let's begin from the very beginning.
- The article was published on 31 August 2006 called "World's Youngest CEO" and not "Suhas Gopinath" by VisionIndia who hasn't edited any other article on Wikipedia. Article was published on basis of 2 references of [[14]], [[15]] out of which the first one is non-notable as per Wikipedia:BLP. Surprisingly, even BBC does not certifies him to be the "World's Youngest CEO" at a time when this article was created by VisionIndia with a title of World's Youngest CEO which is quite surprising.
- Current Status: It's not surprising to see many sources blooming up as a result of getting this article live on Wikipedia. Maybe this article is a source for many news sources to write upon.
- Dead Links: References 6, 7, 8, 10 which are [[16]], [[17]], [[18]] and [[19]] are completely dead are invalid sources are should be removed immediately.
- Personal Sources: Reference #4 which is [[20]] is a personal blog and not a independent news agency and hence stands non-reliable source. Reference #2 which is [[21]] a Crunchbase profile. Seriously, how do profile certify the notability.
- As has been discussed previous at WP:RSN local city supplements of Times of India (and other Indian newspapers) are not reliable sources. The two main sources cited in the article are the Nagpur-city sections of [22] and city section of [23] and also [[24]] and it is clear from reading those pieces too that they are essentially a write-up of the subject's biography as related by him and his family (this is typical for the metro sections). Lacking any independent reliable sources the subject fails to meet WP:GNG.Dormantos (talk) 06:26, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- (refactored) Comment | Note to closing admin As per the article's history and edit records, there is been immense attempts in blanking, unnecessary moving, and repeated vandalism over this article. By vandalism, I want to mean that article was stuffed up with all non-sense stuff such as interviews, personal views etc. and that too by editors who no more have accounts on Wikipedia. Seems quite strange. They can be called sock-puppets as per Wikipedia:SPI: Nasib, 203.153.40.156, 203.200.213.98, 59.160.198.146, 122.167.2.211, Naveenk1, 125.18.168.157, Naveenkumar india, Chandanrkumar, Naveenkk2000, 121.243.255.78, 99.231.244.199, Globals media (Globals Inc. itself?), and 72.95.208.164. Out of 14, 8 are IP which have worked to promote the article and not expanding. Moreover account of Globals Media is sufficient to prove the account is of his company Globals Inc. The account has been already blocked indefinitely as per record [[25]]. It is no surprise that the IP addresses are sock-puppets of Globals Media working only for promoting this article. Dormantos (talk) 12:37, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- I have reduced the priority of the comment taking into notice that this has nothing to do with AFD. Instead I have created a SPI at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Globals_media. Dormantos (talk) 08:46, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- Note Dormantos seems to have registered specifically to comment on this AfD. --ThaddeusB (talk) 15:29, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Dormantos has been blocked indefinitely as a sock puppet. As such, I have striken his comments on this AfD. --ThaddeusB (talk) 05:32, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep - subject passes the GNG as indicated by the many reliable sources already in the article and others found in a quick news search. Past promotional editing (even if it occurred) is never a valid reason for deletion. --ThaddeusB (talk) 15:29, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
Comment - Okay thanks ThaddeusB for your explanation. So shall I take it as you oppose my one point and accept my rest of the points mentioned above. I believe Wikipedia accept articles that have coverage in regular media and not creating sources based on claims made primarily on Wikipedia. I will surely respond if you have any queries regarding my research over the article. Dormantos (talk) 16:20, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - Dormantos, I think Suhas Gopinath is trying to be smart! And creating buzz for his article. Note for Suhas Gopinath & Globals Media: Nobody is late to enter in Wikipedia but you need to achieve a lot more in real life than you think. Preeti Sharma's Knowledge (talk) 19:47, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep, on the basis subject meets WP:GNG with online and (now) offline news coverage from 2003 to date. The sourcing could certainly do with tightening-up and improving, but that's not a reason for deletion. Sionk (talk) 20:02, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep Holds the title "The Youngest CEO" by the India Book of Records.[26]. Meets WP:SIGCOV as there are numerous sources available. Mkdwtalk 23:09, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. Lots of coverage in independent reliable sources, both in India and internationally, including a full-length biographical article in Der Spiegel. Easily passes WP:GNG. —Psychonaut (talk) 14:45, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
- Note I refactored this AFD. The nominator's statement had been pushed down out of order and the comments by Dormantos and others were nearly unreadable due to the mass bolding and prose/paragraph styles. The links were in long form as well. The discussion before the refactoring can be found here. Considering the edit patterns and format style of both the nominator and Dormantos, I have concerns about socking on both sides of this discussion. Mkdwtalk 19:05, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment /
Delete / Keep- OK everyone! If Wikipedia is now accepting the articles of these type of entrepreneurs by there publicity only and without knowing there financial details such as turnover etc. even the company is not also on Wikipedia then, I must say I have 100+ names of more popular entrepreneurs to write about. Shall I start writing about them? or This article is old, so that we have to give any kind of privileges. Preeti Sharma's Knowledge (talk) 19:11, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
- Preeti Sharma's Knowledge, notability is not determined by things like financial detail and turnover. If enough reliable and independent sources have written about an individual, they are considered notable. Notability and success are two different things. Moreover, we treat companies very differently than how we treat articles about people. If you have 100+ other individuals, whom meet our WP:GNG policy, then I would say go ahead. However, you need a clear understanding of how GNG works to do so first. Mkdwtalk 19:22, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
- Mkdw, Thanks for your deep explanation. I am reading Wikipedia from years and thought that the Wikipedia platform is for the people who are extremely popular in there work industry and have extreme Media Coverage. THE REASON OF NOMINATION - Because for example if industry icon such as - Manu Agarwal, Founder of Naaptol & others are not on Wikipedia then, a entrepreneur like Suhas Gopinath without having much popularity or financial releases in Media should not be on Wikipedia by my point of view. Else I am an Editor and the decision is in your hands as a Administrator there is no reason to debate further. Thanks Preeti Sharma's Knowledge (talk) 19:35, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
- Administrators have no more authority in AFD discussions than any other editor aside from closings. Your opinion and comments are equally valued to mine and it is the merits of our talking points against current policies and guidelines that should decide the outcome. The issue of what constitutes notability is a hotly debated topic and you are not alone in thinking that the current inclusion criteria is too relaxed. I would encourage you to continue to participate as notability can change as determined through consensus by the community. WP:NMUSIC is a good example where the criteria changed a considerable amount in the last few years. Mkdwtalk 20:30, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

Note Referring to the List of Indian entrepreneurs, Kochuousep Chittilapilly, Anand Deshpande, Byrraju Ramialinga Raju, Dr. G. Surender Rao do not have their article even though their companies have a Wikipedia article. Also refer that Varun Agarwal has got a Wikipedia article even though his company Alma Mater Store hasn't got one. This was in reply to @Preeti Sharma's Knowledge. Commenting on accusing me of sock-puppetry by @Mkdw, it's quite surprising to see that anyone who opposes you are considered as sock puppets by you in your Wikipedia. Even I know that the consensus for this article is obviously keep and neither I have forced anyone to vote in my favour. I have listed the dead links and links to personal blogs in the article of Suhas Gopinath that needs to be rectified with more valid sources. I am new to Wikipedia and I need time to familiarise with it's policies. Wikipedia:Please_do_not_bite_the_newcomers. Dormantos (talk) 08:46, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- I added the SPI tag to the top of this AFD because you raised concerns about sock puppetry in the discussion and at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Globals_media. You also listed several IPs in this discussion in a note to the closing admin. It was then I noticed that other editors had filed an SPI against you at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Sanjoy64. I find it quite surprising that you'd come to the conclusion that "anyone who opposes [me] are considered sock puppets". I rarely participate at SPI nor did I file anything against you. It's rather ironic because I added the top template in support of comments you made. I think WP:BITE is a great policy, and aside from the SPI, which you shouldn't take personally, because if no wrongdoing has been done then it will settle the issue. I don't think anyone has mistreated you and plenty of people have taken the time to explain their positions despite this being a fairly clear cut case of meeting our main policy on notability. Likewise, if you expect others to be nice to you, then I suggest you carefully measure your words and avoid strong accusations like the broad statement you made about me in what I can assume good faith was a misunderstanding. Mkdwtalk 17:16, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
Dear Mkdw. I apologize for being harsh to you. I really don't know why I was under constant attack when I joined Wiki and posted on this Afd. Yes I do accept that I did vote numerous Afd seeing the content only and not going by the policies. But now I have gone through complete policies of WP:GNG, WP:BLP, WP:BIO, WP:AFD, WP:AUTHOR as well.

I'm not 100% convinced on this, but as this has been tagged for notability for 7 years now, I felt that if I couldn't establish notability, it should be taken to AfD. Pinging Rbifan and Orangemike. The info in the article suggested notability, especially the CWC week and the connection to Jack London. However, London's group doesn't seem to be really connected with the organisation today. Essentially, although it looks notable, I wasn't able to verify it. Boleyn (talk) 18:18, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

- Delete - The school is not really notable because the school is not in the news at all, the only page sources are the school website, and the most one can write about Pimley school would still be a stub. Since it could only be a stub, why not just create a page about Ermine (organization), which owns the school, and then put the date on Pimley school and the other Ermine schools there?

I couldn't establish that this meets WP:GNG, it has some basic Ghits but not much. As for WP:NPLACE, it depends if this is considered a 'larger neighbourhood' or 'smaller suburb' and I couldn't be sure that this falls into the former. As this has been tagged for notability for 7 years and I couldn't establish WP:NOTABILITY, I've taken it to AfD. If found non-notable, could be worth a redirect to Livingston.

However, I can't see any basis for dealing with the General Prologue in this manner. What is sometimes called the "Reeve's Prologue" is his sermonizing at the start of The Reeve's Tale.

Plenty of press releases and primary sources, but only one arguably third-party independent reliable source, a small piece from the Orange County Register, a local paper where the subjects live. Articles (especially biographies) require multiple third-party reliable sources, and this subject has only one. The subject has been tagged since July, and has had these issues since 2012.

- Keep per the sources provided by Northamerica1000 and Vejvančický. The Kenton Magazine article, for example, provides substantial biographical coverage of the subject:
Austrian born singer and actress Dalal Bruchmann has exploded onto the dance music scene with the video for her hit single “Taste The Night”. With well over a million views on youtube alone, it’s apparent that Dalal is on the upward move.
Dalal’s entertainment career was no fluke. Born into a long line of talented artists, composers, and musicians, she was already a certified musical prodigy and performing artist by age 4. She learned to play both the violin and piano; composed her own scores at age 5, and at age 8 had already played with several acclaimed orchestras in Europe.
There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Dalal Bruchmann to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

- Keep – This is kind of a borderline case. WP:NMEDIA wants "a large audience, established broadcast history, or unique programming." I added a note to say that the broadcast history was 1950–1969. I guess keep because the general practice seems to be keep college stations with broadcast licenses. See Category:College radio stations in the Philippines. The fact that it is now defunct wouldn't matter as such. I did add a note to DZRV – Radio Veritas to say that it took over the frequency formerly used by this station. Also, there is a proposal to merge this article with Tiger Radio, but they seem to be different stations operated at different times. The only thing they have in common is being operated by the same university. – Margin1522 (talk) 01:27, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
- Keep per Margin1522. The commonly held view at WP:WPRS is that all licensed stations (especially those which originate their own programming) are inherently notable. The fact this station is no longer on-air is irrelevant -- notability is not temporary. Levdr1lp / talk 12:18, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

Subject fails WP:NACTOR.

Only appears to have had minor roles in TV series in which she has appeared.

- Comment For me reading this article was rather discombobulating. No where near enough content to put the article in a constellation of understanding. If this battle was part of a war, mention it in that wars article. if it wasn't mention it in the history of the mentioned countries. I felt like I had so little to go on I wouldn't even know where to start researching this to help the article out. Bryce Carmony (talk) 13:55, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
- Probably keep – When I started searching for sources about the "Battle of Sarsa" I was truly perplexed, since the only websites mentioning it seemed to link back to this Wikipedia article. Then I started searching for related terms, such as "Gobind Singh". (Oh look there's a Wiki article: Guru Gobind Singh.) It became clear that the river in question is more commonly spelled Sirsa. Parivar Vichora is apparently a site on this river, related to the Battle of Sirsa. Here's a mention. Here's a longer discussion from sikh-history.com. So I dunno, it seems like a pretty significant event, widely recognized as happening, at least within the Sikh tradition. Maybe the article looks like "propaganda" right now, with the spin currently given, but do you think the event didn't happen? Do you (Xtremedood) know of any good sources discussing this place and time which might have better information? groupuscule (talk) 17:16, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

- Comment: This was tagged as a speedy deletion as something that was edited by a sockpuppet account, but I'm declining it because there have been edits from others (albeit mostly from the AfD nominator) and there's just enough of an assertion of notability here to where it'd probably be better for this to go through a full AfD since it's already in progress. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 09:33, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
- Basically there's two people here who seem at least somewhat interested in keeping the article and (presumably) improving it to show notability. However at the same time there is still an impetus to prove notability for the battle since there have been many, many battles throughout history, some with names and some without. A battle occurring and receiving a name does not automatically mean that it's notable. It can make it easier to find sources, but it's pretty typical for historians (amateur or professional) to label battles in order to keep dates and facts straight. What we have here is a siege that is sourced by one source. It's by a reliable publisher but the book contains information about thousands of battles and isn't really the type of source that we'd keep on that basis alone since it contains many, many entries. This needs more sourcing to really prove that it was a notable event. Now this shouldn't be taken as an endorsement for deletion, just that right now based on the sources there really isn't a strong assertion that this battle would pass notability guidelines based on the single source. It is, however, enough to where I think it should continue through AfD. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 09:41, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Dáithí Lacha's sources date from the 1960s, 1970s and 1990s and is the country's "first home-grown television cartoon star". The Morbegs has three sources. Pic Me is an award winner and globally distributed. Roy has a BAFTA. Quizone doesn't (yet?) compare. --Greykit (talk) 20:17, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

- Delete unless independent sources can be found. This is a classic art gallery/art centre/art space conundrum: there may be plenty of RS available, but they are about the exhibitions, not the gallery. I've had trouble with other artist-run centres, which technically are notable but cannot be verified as such for Wikipedia. Unless there are some RSs available that are about the gallery itself and are more than trivial, sadly this is a delete. freshacconci talk to me 20:54, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- Weak delete - exhibitions being covered in reliable sources is some indication of notability. As such, I would be inclined to keep if even one reliable source discussing the history (for example) of the centre existed. Sadly, I couldn't find any.

- Comment Yes , there are more references. I've read them. Most are references to show specific companies use the services--but these amount to incidental mentions of WealthForge, not substantial references, and do not prove market share; if you can prove it is the most important firm in the industry, that would show notability. You've added an academic reference--but it just includes the company name in a list of 27 companies in the field, without discussing it at all. (The list does show that 17 of those companies entered the business before this one.)
- You've kept in such promotional material as "Mat and Fred developed technological solutions, leveraging the web to create new efficiencies and scale for private equity markets. These technologies form the foundation of WealthForge's services, and fit the larger trend of financial services becoming web-based" This says nothing specific, and only a promotional web site would refer to the founders by their first names to give an informal touch--not an encyclopedia.
- " local recognition and an increasing presence": "local" is a reason against notability, and increasing presence translates as not yet notable
- The JOBS act and financial technology are important, but I don't see how that shows this specific firm is.
- on my talk page, you write", Wikipedia already has pages for many similar companies" Yes, we have pages for other crowd funding companies. If they're as promotional as this and prove as little, we need to get rid of them, not add to their number. DGG ( talk ) 20:22, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
- Response You bring up good points. I have tried to keep promotional language to a minimum, but more of it can and should be edited out. I am not associated with the company, nor am I paid or benefiting in any way from this article. I live in Richmond where the company is headquartered and I am a student at the University of Richmond, where the two founders attended school. However, I do not know them and I am not trying to promote the company in this article. Some of the information comes from promotional materials, and I actually cut out much of the promotional language – more needs to be edited out, though. In creating this article I am interested in expanding Wikipedia's coverage of the crowdfunding industry, which I think is very important. For example, I find it very interesting that someone can invest in lawsuits through Lexshares, a client of WealthForge.
- While WealthForge is not the most important firm in the industry, it is well-known in crowdfunding nationwide, its technology is used by other crowdfunding companies, and its financial services are used by many more. News coverage is a little hard to come by not because it lacks notability, but because of the nature of its work. This is also why some sources mention the company only tangentially. Much of its work is done behind the scenes between companies, but it provides the necessary services for crowdfunding. If we delete WealthForge, Wikipedia would lack a clear explanation of how the crowdfunding industry works, because while we might have crowdfunding websites present on Wikipedia, the company that allows many to actually invest – Wealthforge – would be absent.
- Crowdfunding is not done through the more traditional financial institutions, instead, new, small companies like WealthForge provide specialized services for crowdfunding clients. Moreover, while I do think many articles about crowdfunding sites on Wikipedia lack quality, I do not think they should be deleted. If we delete these sites, we lose significant coverage of the crowdfunding industry, who the actors are, and how it works. Since it is also a growing industry, these pages will probably develop much more in the coming years – including WealthForge's page. I should also mention that WealthForge can act as an interesting case in crowdfunding startups, since it started merely as a crowdfunding platform called Fundroom.com, but then transitioned to provide services to the rest of the industry.
- This is not my first time editing an article on Wikipedia, but you obviously know much more than me when it comes to the rules and principles of the site, so I look forward to your response and I hope I have been able to change your mind about this page a little bit. Please know that I am not trying to vandalize, nor promote any organization, I am simply aware of the company, found it interesting, and hoped I might add something about. I will certainly try to be more careful about notability in the future, though. When I created the page I did not have it fully planned out, and thought there would be more sources. Then, I scrambled to add things so it would not get deleted. Nevertheless, I do not think we should delete this page. I think it has something to offer, especially if we improve it.

- Delete The article is not moving toward meeting Wikipedia's standards with the just added material and cites.
- Example: the material supported by the cites to PRNewswire, characterized by its website with Amplify Take your release beyond the basics for better results.
- Example: the Reuters cite has this disclaimer at the head Reuters is not responsible for the content in this press release.
- Example: the HuffingtonPost cite has this mention of WealthForge such as WealthForge.
- Example: the WSJ cite may speak to the notability of a client of WealthForge, but is only a passing mention of WealthForge.
- These cite failures, in addition to the pervasive promotional tone and PRspeak, indicate, to me, an article aimed a potential client. — Neonorange (talk) 23:49, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

- Delete. Most of the sources I saw on the page were press releases - and any company can put those out, really. The article is, indeed, written in a promotional tone, and I'm not convinced that we can get around this problem.

I don't know how people can possibly tie together Stevie Ray Vaugn, Pope Benedict XVI, and text editors, but at least one person managed to do so. Anyway, it's already briefly described at Vi, so I don't think a merge is necessary.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC; article has zero secondary reliable sources. This is a group created by SM Entertainment and composed of members of existing SM Entertainment groups, whose purpose was to perform one time at one of Korea's big year-end music festivals. I can't really see that a standalone article is useful for this one-off event group, as there is no biographical information to include (all members are discussed elsewhere, in their own or group's article), no discussion of how the group formed (it was done by a big company for one event), nothing to say about their musical style (it was one song, a cover of an existing song by Zedd), no controversy or critical response. There's literally nothing to say about this "group" other than "here are the members and they performed this song one time." The year-end music festival at which they performed frequently have many "special groups" like this one perform, and none of them have Wikipedia articles; SM Entertainment just gave this one a name so an SM fanatic made an article for them. If not already there, it might be worth a mention in each participant's article and/or the SM Town article, but I think just typing it into those articles would be preferable that trying to merge or something official like that. since this article has no RS anyway.

- Keep all (redirect all to list) per extensive discussions at WT:ASTRO and WT:AST which we've discussed for years, these get merged and redirected, not deleted. -- 65.94.43.89 (talk) 06:19, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect all to list e.g. List of minor planets: 1001–2000 per above, Boleyn (talk) 07:06, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep But I'm confused here. Usually if you redirect items to a list, that list doesn't have links to the items in question. They are unlinked. The list you mentioned is a list of links to things like the asteroids on this delete list. It would be a circular redirect. Such as the item on this delete proposal 1747 Wright. We would either delete every individual article on the list you mentioned (but keep the list) or keep all the individual articles and keep this list page you mentioned and add these new ones to the list. Simply saying redirect to list doesn't really solve anything. There appear to be over 217,000 of these asteroids/minor planets. The first 10,000 pretty much have an individual article for each and every one. Randomly picking a few here for deletion is ridiculous! You'd still have over 9,900 to go. Personally I think an article for all these is trivial and should go. I would simply keep the list (with unlinked asteroids) but include in the table next to each asteroid an external link to its JPL Small-Body Database number. If someone is truly interested in asteroid "4997 Ksana" they would be a click away from the jpl website info. So it's keep for me unless we discuss ALL the asteroids. Fyunck(click) (talk) 07:58, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Other similar ones should be redirected as well, and the fact that they exist does not mean that these should as well. See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, which explains that this is not a valid argument. StringTheory11 (t • c) 17:39, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Be consistent. I agree with Fyunck(click), either keep these or also delete similar mini-stubs, but don't just randomly pick a few of them. --JorisvS (talk) 08:54, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment These weren't picked randomly, they were all part of the hidden category of pages tagged for notability. If the other articles had been on that list I would have included them as well. For the record I had about 5 more articles on this list that I had to remove because less than 24 hours after I had put together the list, those 5 articles had been nominated individually by another editor, or had been redirected. Obviously there is a bunch of these articles we need to deal with, and it does seem silly to deal with them all separately. I was just trying to cleanup some notability tags though, I didn't realize how big of an issue this was. -War wizard90 (talk) 23:43, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep all per WP:NASTRO. -- 120.17.83.176 (talk) 09:03, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment Actually that would be a reason not to keep it, just saying per WP:NASTRO doesn't mean anything, what part of NASTRO supports this keep !vote? -War wizard90 (talk) 23:43, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Reply: First, WP:Notability_(astronomical_objects)#Dealing_with_minor_planets recommends redirection rather than deletion, so that an AfD nomination runs directly against WP:NASTRO policy to begin with. Second, such redirection should only occur if a good-faith search has failed to locate supporting references. For at least some of these asteroids, reliable sources do exist (I haven't checked them all, and you obviously have not), and so redirection is not appropriate either. Rather, they should stay as stubs until they can be expanded. Essentially, I agree with Graeme Bartlett below. To pick just one example, 1747 Wright has published information on its orbital characteristics, albedo, lightcurve, spectrum, surface mineralogy, and other attributes. There is also an image and a substantial amount of infobox data already in the article, which would be lost if the article was redirected. Clearly, there is enough material to expand at least that one to a decent article size, and ditto for all the others I've checked. It's also WP:Astro practice to keep the articles on low-numbered asteroids, precisely because they've almost all been known long enough to accumulate a fair bit of literature. I must say, I consider this particular mass nomination extremely disruptive, and in my opinion the nom deserves a trout. -- 120.17.67.220 (talk) 02:21, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, it does recommend redirection, and once I realized that the consensus on these was to redirect I added the bit about a possible redirect to the nomination, and have said in my other comments that a redirect would be appropriate. Unfortunately, I had already nominated it, once I realized what the consensus had been, but have no prejudice against redirecting these. Secondly, I am not a subject matter expert, nor do I claim to be, there are editors at this AfD that obviously have a lot better understanding of it then I do (such as yourself) and are able to find sources easier than I could (and thank you for providing sources to back up your claims, rather than just announcing their existence). The checks I did found some info, but not enough to warrant an article, that third link you provided clearly has enough to support an article, I didn't find anything that extensive. I still don't appreciate some of the bad faith comments made about the nomination. That being said, your argument is enough to convince me that this nomination was made haphazardly and I probably should have contacted some folks at the astronomy wikiprojects, so I will withdraw the nomination. It was not intended to be "extremely disruptive" and anyone familiar with my editing history would know that. -War wizard90 (talk) 04:07, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep the first one I looked at even had an image. So these have obviously been researched heavily, as you can also tell from the low numbers. So without checking, and I am sure the nominator did not check every one either, I recommend keeping every one of them. If they are nominated for deletion after the nominator has done a literature search for that one then they can be considered individually. Until then keep the lot. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 09:04, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment It even had an image??? How is that a valid argument for keeping it? In what world does having a picture of something automatically mean it's been "researched heavily?" You are just making assumptions. You are also assuming (in bad faith) that I didn't do any literature search before nominating these articles. Then you say that I should do a literature search on "that one" but don't even tell us what "that one" is. If your convinced that it's been "heavily researched" then why not spend 5 seconds typing it into Google to prove that statement? I would check "that one" out now, but unfortunately I'm not sure what "that one" is. Based on previous discussions it seems the consensus is to redirect these articles, not keep them outright as 65.94.43.89 pointed out above. -War wizard90 (talk) 23:50, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect - these all fall within the context of NASTRO's section on dealing with minor planets. Why this particular set for AfD? I don't know. I think some at WP:Astro have argued for keeping dedicated articles for the asteroids with numbers up to 5000 or 10,000 or something, and I'm ok with that as a matter of practice. However, since someone has brought it up here, let's go with the policy. WP:NASTRO was initiated, originally, in response to an unusual amount of article creation for high-numbered asteroids. In the case of this set, redirecting does no harm, and if/when any particular rocks among them are studied beyond basic parameters, then an individual article can be made. Cheers, AstroCog (talk) 14:19, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment I didn't arbitrarily pick these pages, I picked them because they had the notability tag placed on them, no prejudice against adding others to the list that are the same. -War wizard90 (talk) 23:43, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- That makes sense. I should have realized that the notability tag is pasted on a large number of the asteroid stubs...perhaps even placed by me in some cases! It's not really controversial to take a critical eye towards the asteroid stubs, and I think this was a good faith attempt at dealing with the ones you found with a notability tag. As you've found, though, the community currently prefers to redirect existing minor planet stubs rather than delete them outright - a pyrrhic victory for inclusionists! ;-) Cheers, AstroCog (talk) 12:24, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect to the corresponding minor planet lists as detailed in WP:NASTRO. Those stating keep may want to reread the guideline, which states that an object must have significant coverage to be retained. In the case of these minor planets, I'm not seeing any significant coverage (and no, an image most certainly does not count). StringTheory11 (t • c) 17:39, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Non-notable academic. Atangana claims a fairly high impact factor by having his papers frequently cited, but an examination of the citations shows that they are largely him or his co-authors citing his own papers. There is no indication that many other authors have cited his work. Atangana publishes exclusively in journals published by Hindawi Publishing Corporation, an open-acces, pay-to-publish organization that has been put under watch by the Beall list for predatory publishing practices. The conferences listed cannot be found except as mentioned in Atangana's papers. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:33, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
Atangana is a young researcher that has published 67 papers in his field of expertise in less than 3 years. His research paper appears in top journal like "Vibration and Control", "Computational Physic", "Journal of hydrological processes", "Communication in nonlinear science and numerical simulation" "Neural computing and applications" and others this journals are not open access and in addition, I will like to point out the fact that, almost all the journals in Elsevier, Wiley, Springer and other have open access option does that means they are not good?

- Comment No, the claim is not that all open access journals are of poor quality. But Hindawi's journals have been called to task by Jeffrey Beall, with specific note that several of their journals have been delisted from Thomson Reuters' Impact Factor listing, some more than once. (See [63]). Also, Atananga's practice of citing his own papers artificially boosts his own citation count within Google Scholar (a poor, but often used measure of an academic's impact). The fact is, there just does not appear to be the necessary indication that Atananga is a person who has had a deep impact on his field of study. Quantity is not the same as quality.

- Delete. WoS confirms the actual lack of impact of this subject's work. The citation count list is 31, 18, 13, 8, 8, 6 etc, but most of these are him citing himself. For example, of the 31 cites for the highest paper, 22 are his own. For the second paper, 13 of the 18 cites are his own, etc. This is hardly representative of a "leading mathematician". Agricola44 (talk) 20:46, 25 March 2015 (UTC).
- Delete. Even with self-citations, his h-index is 10, which isn't enough for WP:PROF. Nor does he have the kind of senior position that would satisfy WP:PROF. He gets zero mentions on the Cameroonian web. In the last few years there have been papers applying mathematical techniques to e.g. African diseases. This may make him notable eventually, but so far not yet. -- 120.17.0.71 (talk) 21:47, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
- Delete. Hindawi, Naturalspublishing, and Omicsonline are all dubious-quality publishers. Skipping them and counting only the journals from reputable publishers (in this case Springer and Elsevier) in a Google scholar search, we have citation counts 30, 16, 10, 6, 2, 2, 1. (Surprisingly close to the WOS numbers.) Eliminating the self-citations makes the citation record look even worse: 10, 5, 8, 1, etc. I don't want to conclude from this that he is *not* notable: mathematics is a low-citation field and it's possible for important work to be poorly cited. But certainly this means that the publication and citation record by itself provides no evidence of passing WP:PROF#C1. And what else is there? Editorship (not editor-in-chief) of some journals, and a postdoctoral fellowship, neither of which is sufficient for notability. Being a Cameroonian mathematician, maybe, since that is an unusual combination, but we would at least need sources (such as magazine profiles of the subject) saying so, and we don't have even that. —David Eppstein (talk) 23:56, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
- Delete: not even close of any of the WP:PROF criteria. I do not see how being Cameroonian makes up for any kind of notability; even if he was the only mathematician in Cameroon but got nothing published on him in GNG style, PROF ought to apply in full force.

Hello, I was the original author of the article. I of course vote for Keep. I wrote the following comment (sic) to DGG's nomination to delete the article, and I think it applies here as well:
I mostly disagree with this nomination as I still think the Wiki article I wrote is factual and non-biased, and represents an article on a company with all the available info. That includes the bit about the humanitarian mission. It's not a praise of the firm. It's a fact drawn from the firm's website. Would you rather have articles that only selectively mention a firm's activities? (FYI, many of the Wikipedia articles on firms (including some Fortune 500 corporations) mention their humanitarian missions as factual statements with references only to the firm's website, and nothing more... So Wikipedia should really try to inspect those as well with the idea of fairness).
As for "notable," the current definition Wikipedia is using is rather incapable, and it's very unfortunate. There are many "notable" and significant firms in the world economies that might not have third party biographies or summaries simply because they're not well known to consumers or masses, or haven't received any attention in the media. That doesn't mean they have no notability or aren't significant in their niche. This particular firm, Orgenetics, makes Organic vitamins from plants. I have found no other company in the nutraceutical industry that is capable of that. In my opinion, this is notable. However, as this particular firm is a raw material supplier, I doubt consumers and mass media would know about this firm. Along the same idea, I doubt this firm would have any substantial third party media coverage due to its niche as a raw material manufacturer and supplier.
Anyways, it seems I fundamentally disagree with this opinion and Wikipedia's policies, so this would all be a moot point until any of it changed. Yours truly, HealthTake (talk) 19:47, 24 March 2015 (UTC) — HealthTake (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- Keep I vote keep for now, i agree it certainly is on the lower sides of notable, but if 3rd party verifiable resources can be drummed up I think it could be a fine article. if not we can delete it later not a big deal. Bryce Carmony (talk) 22:44, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: While I know what I probably should vote here, I'm just going to leave a comment. After scouring the internet all I can find is this award they received which could be worked in to the article, and multitudes of mentions in Natural Products Insider which could be a good thing, or a business deal of some form. Thank you Thaddeus B for pinging me too. EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 00:38, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
- Delete - the "author" (ahem) throws WP:OTHERSTUFF in the way, claims facts from the company's website (cough), and is admitting that the article violates policies but it should not matter because it is a niche product. Well, indeed, we rarely apply WP:GNG to companies because of that very reason (most companies have a specific audience) but I still fail to see how this passes WP:CORPDEPTH.

- Comment: Tigraan (talk), I'm not claiming that the Wiki policies don't matter because this company has a niche. Please reread what I wrote before misconstruing my statements. It is my opinion that Wikipedia's "notable" policy is incapable, and I gave the aforementioned reasons. I never once mentioned that it shouldn't apply to this article, again, if you read what I wrote. Along the same lines, I did take facts from the company's website, but the references in the article clearly mention that. (Isn't that the point of references anyway?) HealthTake (talk) 21:18, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
- Please forgive my misunderstandings then, but I fail to see how the following can be compatible:
- WP policies matter, and should apply to the article (even if they are "incapable");
- The article fails to follow the policies ("I doubt this firm would have any substantial third party media coverage (...)");
- The article should be kept (that's what a 'keep' !vote means).
- By the way, the point of references is not only to point to the company's website. A company's website is considered a reliable source for things like the name of board members, or the postal address, and barring specific circumstances it is usually a good addition to the references. I am not disputing the addition of the company's website; I dispute its use as the sole source of content for their actions, or for notability, as for instance the claim that they have an "emphasis on fair business practices" (putting quotes to indicate it is their own claim does not change the problem). Tigraan (talk) 13:29, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
- Please forgive my misunderstandings then, but I fail to see how the following can be compatible:
- Delete Non notable company, article is sourced to company resources or (imho) unreliable sources. 19:49, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
- Delete I'm afraid. I couldn't find any third party sources. The award article posted above by Eord is really kind of trivial coverage from a notability perspective. The results from Natural Products Insider appear because Orgenetics sponsors that website and shows up in a sponsors sidebar. HealthTake, you cannot avoid deletion by expressing fundamental disagreement with Wikipedia's consensus rules about what's notable. The idea is that if this were such an important company then someone would have written some impartial, detailed article about them. I hope you are not frustrated by this experience; I would like to see nothing more than you taking our advice on-board and contributing many non-promotional articles about notable companies to Wikipedia!

- Delete. I Googled for a while and couldn't find any independent Reliable Sources. The award noted above is an Honorable Mention, of an award for which I failed to find independent Reliable Source coverage. Comment to HealthTake: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a business directory or Facebook-type site for self-publishing. The criteria for encyclopedia inclusion is that a subject must have significant independent coverage in books, news, or other similar sources. Most businesses do not belong in an encyclopedia. Sorry.

- Delete Fails WP:CORP for lack of independent coverage. This is Wikipedia's criterion for whether or not the subject qualifies for inclusion in an international encyclopedia. We call it "notability" which is not really a good term, because of course all business owners think their company is "notable"; maybe "coverage" would be a better name for it.

This organization has donated thousands of dollars to the Broward Children's Center in the city of Pompano Beach in efforts to give back to the community.

In categories we are listed as a fishing tournament. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Fishing_tournaments How is our article different than all the other fishing tournaments? We have 14 references backing our article including the florida sport fishing magazine. Please advise me on what I have to do in order to keep this article from being deleted? Joesph Hector
- Well you have made a start by trimming some of the more excessive spam and self promotion. Looking at the category list, there are tournaments of questionable notability there that should perhaps be deleted also. The references you mention, now 12 of them, are mostly to publications that are not notable, that do not, for example, have a Wikipedia entry. The Kayak Fish Mag is a local state magazine. The Sun Sentinel is notable, but it does not contain an in-depth report and again is a local state publication. Another reference is only to a press release. Can you find better sources, perhaps to books from reputable publishers, or perhaps to recognized magazines that are international, or at least national? If you can't then the article is not really ready for Wikipedia. It might be ready in a few years time, and then you could try again. --Epipelagic (talk) 19:57, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
Please check our references. We have added several in depth Sun Sentinel articles about Extreme Kayak Fishing Tournament. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/outdoors/fl-wednesday-fishing-report-0820-20140819-story.html http://www.sun-sentinel.com/local/broward/pompano-beach/fl-cnsp-digestbr-0907-20140908-story.html http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2011-08-20/sports/fl-extreme-kayak-tournament-0821-20110820_1_kayak-fishing-fishing-rod-gift-card http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2014-04-29/sports/fl-wednesday-fishing-report-0430-20140429_1_brian-nelli-anglers-hobie-kayak
We have also added reputable sources from the , "WPTV-TV", "The Palm Beach Post" and "Guy Harvey". Each of sources have their own wikipedia articles. With these sources Extreme Kayak Fishing article should be Notable.

By providing new references that our listed in Extreme kayak fishing article reference page, why is this page still up for deletion? Please advise me if there is anything more that needs to be addressed in order to make this article notable for Wikipedia. Thank you Joseph Hector — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ekft (talk • contribs) 14:13, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
Comment The positive commenters on this page are 1)the proprietor of the event, 2) a major contributor to the article whose username is an acronym of the event, 3)98.249.250.93, the original author of the article. These facts strongly indicate this article was begun as promotion, and is still promotion. Tapered (talk) 01:24, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
- delete there is still a great deal of unsourced content (fails WP:OR and WP:VERIFY; there are still 4 or 5 blog sources (fails WP:SPS) and press releases (fails WP:INDY) - outside of that, it is a local paper (the Sun Sentinel) or Palm Beach Post (which is a paragraph). and it is all kind of news-y, and WP is WP:NOTNEWS. This kind of regional reporting doesn't bring the event up to WP:NOTABILITY for the encyclopedia Jytdog (talk) 01:50, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
In categories Extreme Kayak fishing article is under Fishing tournaments. See here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Fishing_tournaments Why is this article being singled out? This page has more content and reputable sources than most fishing tournaments listed there. One of our sources is "Guy Harvey Outpost News". Guy Harvey is a reputable source that is nationwide and has its own Wikipedia article. This source explains what Extreme kayak fishing is and lists all the winners. This article is not meant as self- promotion or advertising. It exposes the facts about how it is possible to catch large fish such as sailfish, marlin, and pelagics in a small boat such as a kayak. It is a type of fishing tournament that is now possible through the engineering changes in kayak design. These boats can be paddled, pedaled and stood on. These kayaks are made specially for ocean offshore kayak fishing. This changes the game and level for offshore fishing. Please specifically advise why this article is being singled out from all the other fishing tournaments on Wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ekft (talk • contribs) 00:13, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a valid argument at AfD. You haven't responded to the objections raised, and in any case, you disclose that you own the event - you are a paid advocate under our WP:COI guideline and you have ignored what that says - namely "Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing" (emphasis from the original). Please pipe down and let the community decide to do with your work. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 11:17, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- Delete. I see reliable sources that mention the company, but none of the ones I reviewed are what I'd call significant coverage of the company. Covering that an event happened and who won isn't coverage of the company. If this ends up being kept, it needs gutted because the current state stinks of promotion.

Irrelevant to whether the article should be kept or deleted. See WP:DISCUSSAFD if actually interested in contributing.

*'Slander. Looking at all of these comments and reviewing Extreme Kayak Fishing article and all of the other "Tournaments" this is looking like slander against this ONE company. Most comments are very unprofessional toward this company for one. They provided answers to most questions and asked for guidance on others. Also they HAVE notable references, even if individuals believe otherwise. Reading over most of the comments they all fail to realize that "stats" and who won these events is what this company is about and is NOT promoting. Yet 90% of the Wiki tournaments have the same thing.
SLANDER, torts. The defaming a man in his reputation by speaking or writing words which affect his life, office, or trade, or which tend to his loss of preferment in marriage or service, or in his inheritance, or which occasion any other particular damage. Law of Nisi Prius, 3. In England, if slander be spoken of a peer, or other great man, it is called Scandalum Magnatum. Falsity and malice are ingredients of slander. Bac. Abr. Slander. Written or printed slanders are libels; see that word. 2. Here it is proposed to treat of verbal slander only, which may be considered with reference to, 1st. The nature of the accusation. 2d. The falsity of the charge. 3d. The mode of publication. 4th. The occasion; and 5th. The malice or motive of the slander. 3.-Sec. 1. Actionable words are of two descriptions; first, those actionable in themselves, without proof of special damages and, secondly, those actionable only in respect of some actual consequential damages. 4.-1. Words of the first description must impute: 1st. The guilt of some offence for which the party, if guilty, might be indicted and punished by the criminal courts; as to call a person a "traitor," "thief," "highwayman;" or to say that he is guilty of "perjury," "forgery," "murder," and the like. And although the imputation of guilt be general, without stating the particulars of the pretended crime, it is actionable. Cro. Jac. 114, 142; 6 T. R. 674; 3 Wils. 186; 2 Vent. 266; 2 New Rep. 335. See 3 Serg. & Rawle, 255 7 Serg. & Rawle, 451; 1 Binn. 452; 5 Binn. 218; 3 Serg. & Rawle, 261; 2 Binn. 34; 4 Yeates, 423; 10 Serg. & Rawle, 44; Stark. on Slander, 13 to 42; 8 Mass. 248; 13 Johns. 124; Id. 275. 5.-2d. That the party has a disease or distemper which renders him unfit for society. Bac. Abr. Slander, B 2. An action can therefore be sustained for calling a man a leper. Cro. Jac. 144 Stark. on Slander, 97. But charging another with having had a contagious disease is not actionable, as he will not, on that account, be excluded from society. 2 T. R. 473, 4; 2 Str. 1189; Bac. Abr. tit. Slander, B 2. A charge which renders a man ridiculous, and impairs the enjoyment of general society, and injures those imperfect rights of friendly intercourse and mutual benevolence which man has with respect to man, is also actionable. Holt on Libels, 221. 6.-3d. Unfitness in an officer, who holds an office to which profit or emolument is attached, either in respect of morals or inability to discharge the duties of the office in such a case an action lies. 1 Salk. 695, 698; Rolle, Ab. 65; 2 Esp. R. 500; 5 Co. 125; 4 Co. 16 a; 1 Str. 617; 2 Ld. Raym. 1369; Bull. N. P. 4; Holt on Libels, 207; Stark. on Slander, 100. 7.-4th. The want of integrity or capacity, whether mental or pecuniary, in the conduct of a profession, trade or business, in which the party is engaged, is actionable, 1 Mal. Entr. 244 as to accuse an attorney or artist of inability, inattention, or want of integrity; 3 Wils. 187; 2 Bl. Rep. 750; or a clergyman of being a drunkard; 1 Binn. 178; is actionable. See Holt on Libels, 210; Id. 217. 8.-2. Of the second class are words which are actionable only in respect of special damages sustained by the party slandered. Though the law will not permit in these cases the inference of damage, yet when the damage has actually been sustained, the party aggrieved may support an action for the publication of an untruth; 1 Lev. 53; 1 Sid. 79, 80; 3 Wood. 210; 2 Leon. 111; unless the assertion be made for the assertion of a supposed claim; Com. Dig. tit. Action upon the case for Defamation, D 30; Bac. Ab. Slander, B; but it lies if maliciously spoken. See 1 Rolle, Ab. 36 1 Saund. 243 Bac. Abr. Slander, C; 8 T. R. 130 8 East, R. 1; Stark. on Slander, 157. 9.-Sec. 2. The charge must be false; 5 Co. 125, 6; Hob. 253; the falsity of the accusation is to be implied till the contrary is shown. 2 East, R. 436; 1 Saund. 242. The instance of a master making an unfavorable representation of his servant, upon an application for his character, seems to be an exception, in that case there being a presumption from the occasion of the speaking, that the words were true. 1 T. R. 111; 3 B. & P. 587; Stark. on Slander, 44, 175, 223. 10.-Sec. 3. The slander must, of course, be published, that is, communicated to a third person; and if verbal, then in a language which he understands, otherwise the plaintiff's reputation is not impaired. 1 Rolle, Ab. 74; Cro. Eliz. 857; 1 Saund. 2425 n. 3; Bac. Abr. Slander, D 3. A letter addressed to the party, containing libelous matter, is not sufficient to maintain a civil action, though it may subject the libeler to an indictment, as tending to a breach of the peace; 2 Bl. R. 1038; 1 T. R. 110; 1 Saund. l32, n. 2; 4 Esp. N. P. R. 117; 2 Esp. N. P. R. 623; 2 East, R. 361; the slander must be published respecting the plaintiff; a mother cannot maintain an action for calling her daughter a bastard. 11 Serg. & Rawle, 343. As to the case of a man who repeats the slander invented by another, see Stark. on Slander, 213; 2 P. A. Bro. R. 89; 3 Yeates, 508; 3 Binn. 546. 11.-Sec. 4. To render words actionable, they must be uttered without legal occasion. On some occasions it is justifiable to utter slander of another, in others it is excusable, provided it be uttered without express malice. Bac. Ab. Slander, D 4; Rolle, Ab. 87; 1 Vin. Ab. 540. It is justifiable for au attorney to use scandalizing expressions in support of his client's cause and pertinent thereto. 1 M. & S. 280; 1 Holt's R. 531; 1 B. & A. 232; see 2 Serg. & Rawle, 469; 1 Binn. 178; 4 Yeates, 322; 1 P. A. Browne's R. 40; 11 Verm. R. 536; Stark. on Slander, 182. Members of congress and other legislative assemblies cannot be called to account for anything said in debate. 12.-Sec. 5. Malice is essential to the support of an action for slanderous words. But malice is in general to be presumed until the contrary be proved; 4 B. & C. 247; 1 Saund. 242, n. 2; 1 T. R. 1 11, 544; 1 East, R. 563; 2 East, R. 436; 2 New Rep. 335; Bull. N. P. 8; except in those cases where the occasion prima facie excuses the publication. 4 B. & C. 247. See 14 Serg. & Rawle, 359; Stark. on Slander, 201. See, generally, Com. Dig. tit. Action upon the case for Defamation; Bac. Abr. Slander; 1 Vin. Abr. 187; 1 Phillim. Ev. ch. 8; Yelv. 28, n.; Doctr.

- OPPOSE DELETION. In my view, this proposal for deletion is arbitrary. In the first instance, IF the list ever gets too long, one can then cherry pick the most notable stories. Secondly, Wikipedia already carries a huge number of similar lists, where arguably the topic can (and sometimes does) lead to long lists. By way of example, I will mention just a handful of such lists:
- Assassinations in fiction,
- Fiction set in the Roman Empire,
- Fiction based on World War I,
- Fiction based on World War II,
- List of fictional toxins,
- List of science fiction films, and
- List of fictional robots and androids.
- If the above are acceptable in Wikipedia, pray explain to me why not also a page about libraries in fiction ?

DeleteUndecidedKeep per Andrew D.'s finds. The only examples I can think of where the library plays a significant role is The Librarian series and the Star Trek episode "All Our Yesterdays".

- Hi Clarityfiend. Notwithstanding that you are also keen on deleting this page, your reason for deletion appears to be diametrically opposed to the view of Wgolf, in the sense that you believe that such a list should be a very short one! However, there are many more examples of notable fictional stories where the library plays a very significant role, such as in the 2002 film The Time Machine, for example. Did you see that film by any chance? Joe Gatt (talk) 19:19, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
- No. The Time Machine (1960 film) was plenty good enough for me. In any case, since the synopsis for the 2002 film mentions the word "library" exactly once, I'm not seeing much support for your claim. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:30, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

- Comment. If we're talking about fiction, not just films, the first two titles that come to mind are The Library of Babel by Jorge Luis Borges and The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco. Our existing article about The Library of Babel includes an "Influence" section listing other works inspired by Borges.

- Delete To the extent she has been given an award, it is due to award inflation, not particular accomplishment. She has not done more than many other hospital administrators over the years. This article mainly just tends towards presentism in Wikipedia. She has not made significant impact. She was given a low level honor.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:13, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. Holder of the CBE, which has always been held to satisfy the requirements of WP:ANYBIO #1 in previous AfDs. Nobody with such an award has ever been deleted to my knowledge. Very definitely not a "low-level honour" or due to "award inflation" (how insulting and ignorant is that?) in any shape or form. The highest honour below knighthood for which most people are eligible and only a few dozen are awarded every year. In actual fact, contrary to what some seem to believe, considerably fewer honours at this level are awarded now than were awarded in the past, so I really fail to see how this is award inflation (it is certainly true that many more OBEs and MBEs are awarded now, and we do not consider these alone to be evidence of notability, but these increased numbers do not apply to higher awards). Only those who have made a very significant contribution to their field would even be considered for an award at this level. Quite frankly, anyone who believes the CBE is insignificant clearly has absolutely zero knowledge of the British Honours System and should probably avoid looking foolish by commenting on it.

- Reply to those editors who keep pushing the CBE: As noted in the Tim Smart AfD discussion (also linked in the rationale), the CBE (as opposed to, say, a knighthood), is not a significant enough award to confer notability. (The fact that it is being routinely bestowed upon civil service bureaucrats without external notability is rather telling.) The subject's major accolade aside from the CBE, being 33rd highest paid manager is one bureaucracy, puts them lower on that list than Smart. Pax 19:34, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
- It's certainly not routinely conferred on anyone. Please try to understand that you really don't know what you're talking about here. In the Smart discussion, the only person who "noted" the CBE wasn't notable was you - and since Smart doesn't have one it wasn't relevant there in any case. The fact is that in every other AfD for someone with a CBE the article has been kept, usually on the principal basis that they have a CBE. It's your prerogative not to agree, but your rationale is incorrect and your opinion is not accepted by the Wikipedia community. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:55, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- 104 (give or take a few due to my shoddy counting) CBEs were awarded in 2014, the over-whelming bulk of them to faceless bureaucrats and political hacks (such as the illustrious "Clive Kenneth Stephens. Deputy director, Large Business Service, Bristol, HM Revenue and Customs." and "Roy Alexander Stone. Principal private secretary, Government chief Whip's Office", etc. - Private secretaries? These people are not in the news. They are not movers and shakers. They are simply being given a cheapened award now thrown out like candy at a parade. There is no suitable rationale for considering them notable. Pax 03:19, 3 April 2015 (UTC)
- You obviously really don't have a clue about British government if you think a principal private secretary is non-notable. Just because these people haven't played in a single professional football match (our standard of notability for sportspeople), had a song in the charts (our standard for musicians) or been elected to a 1,000-person national assembly (our standard for politicians) doesn't make them non-notable. Given you're in a clear minority here, just give it up, stop insulting people you don't know and honours system you don't understand, and go back to commenting on something you know something about. -- Necrothesp (talk) 17:35, 4 April 2015 (UTC)

Article was previously deleted in 2013 and he has no notable accomplishments since then. Winning some junior awards does not meet WP:MANOTE or WP:ATHLETE. This is no mention of him as an adult in the FILA (world wrestling organization) database. Any coverage of him is based on his winning the ancient Iranian sport of Pahlevani wrestling in 2000. I tried to redirect this article to Pahlevan of Iran and was told I had to take it to AfD by user Just Chilling. I would still prefer to Redirect this article.Mdtemp (talk) 19:42, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

- Comment I was the one who contested the PROD mainly since I think deletion (or not) should take into consideration the Pahlevani wrestling title. Is that a notable event, is it equivalent to a National title. I could not help but think of Sumo Yokozuna. I know wrestling is big in Iran. On a related note the quality of the Pahlevan of Iran article does not inspire a lot of confidence.Peter Rehse (talk) 21:25, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
- Comment I don't know if the article can be kept or not, but I know Pahlevan of Iran title is so important that it is tighten up by President of Iran. (see: 1 2 3 4) The title is linked to legendary hero Pouria. Pahlevun (talk) 23:41, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

- Weak Delete There's just not much there - I would be willing to change my mind if any efforts were made to expand and improve the article. Simonm223 (talk) 20:37, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- Keep - Wrestling is a major sport in Iran and being one of it's champions is on par with being a #1 PGA Championship ranking or a US Open champion in the US. Even a delete voter says this person warrants an article on Persian WP. No need to start systemic bias with this champion. Additionally the coverage already in the article, particularly by Radio Farda, looks very significant. --Oakshade (talk) 05:05, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- Comment I don't see the significant coverage that would support a separate article for this individual. Wrestling is a big sport in Iran, so it's quite possible that this event is notable. However, there's nothing that supports a claim of notability through WP:ATHLETE since this event isn't an official FILA national championship, but rather more of a cultural and historical event. I can't decide how I want to vote on this article, but I think I am currently leaning toward a redirect on the individual and towards saying the event is notable. I know the event isn't actually up for AfD, but it feels like it. Papaursa (talk) 20:08, 4 April 2015 (UTC)
- Delete. Not sure why this wasn't CSD. I'm seeing no evidence of significant coverage. Niteshift36 (talk) 22:03, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
- There is significant coverage of this person linked in the article. Even if it wasn't there, barring BLP concerns it wouldn't be a CSD candidate as it asserts notability. --Oakshade (talk) 06:13, 10 April 2015 (UTC) An hey, Nightshift. Nice to see you. --Oakshade (talk) 06:16, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
- It "asserted notability" the first time it was deleted. As a previously deleted article, it is a CSD candidate. Yes, that can be overcome of the subject becomes clearly notable, but obviously at least a few people don't see that notability. Niteshift36 (talk) 14:42, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

- Rename as Zoological Garden (PRR station) until we know for certain that the station is going to be revised by SEPTA. Then expand it and revert it back to its current name.
