The result was soft delete. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion. Eddie891 Talk Work 01:20, 17 September 2020 (UTC)

The cited sources are (1) a press release, (2) coverage of the press conference announcing the launching of the bank, and (3) a photo caption. The Daily Star also covered the press conference, ostensibly independently of The Financial Express, but their story is strikingly similar, suggesting that neither performed any real analysis, just repeated the company's presentation.[1]
Searches of the usual Google types found one independent article about the government threatening to penalize the bank (and 21 of the country's 54 other merchant banks) for not managing any IPO for two years. There's also one article about an industry award, Euromoney#The Euromoney Awards for Excellence, that is made to sound as if it's hot stuff.[2] But every year about 1,000 banks self-nominate for a couple hundred awards by the organization. Editor JzG has written, "Most industry awards exist as an excuse for a night out on expenses." These awards look like a prime example of that.

At least this time I can find some map that has a dot on it labelled "Moll Ranch", but the containing publication doesn't otherwise mention the spot, much less describe it, and we are thus left with another case where Durham is the sole testimony to the nature of the place.

Her so-called claim to notability was allegedly being the “mistress” of Kennedy. This is no Monica Lewinsky situation. Nothing eventful or notable happened here. Does the article not say this alleged affair is based on her own account? Trillfendi (talk) 21:03, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep I don't see a rationale for deletion. Wikipedia notability doesn't care if the affair was made up or not. In addition to the Washington Monthly source, this Vanity Fair piece is clearly substantial coverage of her. power~enwiki (π, ν) 21:58, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- The reason to delete is lack of independent notability. Your idea of notability is only contigent upon two other people she may have had sex with. And now a story about her son finding her in 1990, is a claim of notability? Trillfendi (talk) 22:49, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy keep Her "claim to notability" is WP:BASIC: "significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject." HouseOfChange (talk) 00:26, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy keep. She had a by-lined obituary in the New York Times. The nominator failed to present a policy-based deletion rationale. It doesn't matter why she's famous, only that she is famous. pburka (talk) 16:02, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
- One of those policies being WP:NOTMEMORIAL and WP:NOTINHERITED? Trillfendi (talk) 18:56, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy keep. Massive level of roughly contemporaneous coverage. No way the nom did anything resembling an adequate WP:BEFORE search. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo). Treated like dirt by many administrators since 2006. Fight for freedom, stand with Hong Kong! (talk) 03:44, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- Nothing in the so-called Before showed anything resembling an act of notability. It all came down to the idea that she may have had sex with a gangster and a president who ended up being shot in the face a few years later. Trillfendi (talk) 18:30, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- KeepI agree with the above editors, given her place in history, the RS, and the fact there was a TV movies made about her life, she is clearly of note. Deathlibrarian (talk) 05:37, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:SNOW. True or false, she's gotten significant coverage over the years. Bearian (talk) 18:16, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- Comment. The nominator seems to have misunderstood our notability guidelines. WP:GNG and WP:BASIC don't require anything like an "act of notability." Instead, we require evidence that independent, reliable sources have taken notice of the subject. Obviously they have. pburka (talk) 18:49, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- You say that, then half of the other articles for deletion discussions show otherwise.... Just being reported on is not what makes notability (at all). But hey, disagreement is what makes Wikipedia what it is. Trillfendi (talk) 19:06, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

The closest we have seems to be Category:Real tennis venues (and I don't know how close that is), and there apparently aren't even enough of those to merit separate lists by country let alone by federated state. postdlf (talk) 23:42, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

This article consists mostly of gazing into a crystal ball into a sea of red. This is not really a useful guide to future articles on association football. It was already draftified once and moved back to article space anyway.
No objection to draftifying again, provided it stays in draft space until it has more substance, but moving it back to draft space unilaterally would be move-warring. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:39, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

No reliable references - I can't even verify the book exists. The references are a dead blogspot blog, and another book I can't verify exists. Based on the author's creation of Apocrypha of the Virgin Mary, I have no idea if the book was supposedly written in modern or ancient times.

- delete After a great deal of looking around I have found the actual text referenced, which in English (rather than, apparently, Spanish) is referred to as the "Narrative of Joseph of Arimathea". New Advent has it here and Bart Ehrman talks about it in his blog here. It may be worth an article, but this one is worthless and has the wrong name. Time to break out the WP:TNT. Mangoe (talk) 22:45, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete: Firstly, thank Mangoe for providing the research. There are unsubstantiated claims in this article, which does not examine New Testament apocrypha as a phenomenon, nor does the article give any sources for the mss, nor the original language, and no exegesis of the document.

Does not appear to be a notable book. Written in 2003, despite the article author attempting to portray it as New Testament apocrypha.

- delete I managed to find the book on Amazon, and that is about it. Appears to be some sort of devotional work, judging from the paucity of negative reviews; if it were true NT apocrypha being written about things would be different. There is a real Gospel of Mary but given its nature he is unlikely to have written about it. Mangoe (talk) 22:27, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete if there was enough sourcing to justify the article, I would re-write the opening. The word "false" is too strong. It is written in a preseumed historical voice, a technique employed in a slightly different way by R. Lanier Britsch in his book Nothing More Heroic on the 19th-century efforts of missionaries for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in India, written in the voice of A. Milton Musser.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:02, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete: This is a devotional treatise based on the Gospel of Mary, and not the apocrypha text itself. Sources discovered (and translated) show there is no neutral point of view in this text. It is devotional, not academic. --Whiteguru (talk) 12:20, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete The book which appears to be the subject of the article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:BKCRIT. Though various entries about the book appear on Google, almost all of them are from vendors. Modussiccandi (talk) 16:59, 11 September 2020 (UTC)

He was involved in a dispute that got some minor news coverage in Poland, but that does not get him beyond WP:BIO1E.

- Delete. On a promising road, but for now I'd say, overall, she does not pass the average professor test of WP:NPROF, nor (analogously) an average author/poet test. Somewhat low number of citations, even considering her low-cited field. Plus, I'd expect more than two or three secondary sources talking about the work of a poet/author to establish WP:GNG or WP:AUTHOR, even if they were blog posts, and I am not convinced she is notable in this sense yet (WP:TOOSOON). Walwal20 talk ▾ contribs 23:36, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. I don't think the fact that the citation counts are low is particularly meaningful; she's not a scientist, and I would expect them to be low in this subject, even for notable people. It would be a fallacy to say that many notable people have low citations and hers are low so she's notable; I think we have to look elsewhere instead. But, looking at reviews, she appears to have no books of her own. We have (as listed above by pburka) a single review of a volume edited by someone else that has one of its 12 chapters by the subject, and another published article specifically about the subject's poetry. I don't think the first of these counts for much at all. The second one seems a lot more significant to me, and comparable to a single published book review, but it's still only one source, and it's the only such source I found.

- Delete - A few things have changed since his first AfD in 2018, but not much. He is a longtime musician whose works were never noticed in the reliable music media. He got some significant but momentary coverage for his weight loss achievements ([3], [4]), but I think he is still stuck with WP:1EVENT. This article is written with a focus on his old music career and new motivational speaking career, indicating that he is trying to use his momentary media notice for his weight loss as promotion for his other ventures. He can do that all he wants, except on Wikipedia where there are notability standards. ––DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:33, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

The article clearly doesn't meet WP:GNG. The sources in the article are simply directory/stats listings, which I believe do not establish notability. Have performed a WP:BEFORE and nothing came up. I've nominated two articles previously which were similar and they have been deleted (here and here). Editors over there cited the WP:CRIN guideline which is being debated itself and for it to change, precedent is needed, clearly those guidelines aren't being accepted and seem to me like they'll never be able to satisfy the GNG. Another argument given by editors on similar pages is given that sources in other languages might exist, I am thoroughly unconvinced by this as none of these sources have materialized and I feel like it's an argument which can be used anywhere; all an editor has to do is claim that sources exist. Please note I am a new editor and this is my understanding after trying my best to read as many guidelines and past discussions as possible, I could have easily made mistake, but I am just trying to be bold.

- Keep Individual played in 22 first-class and 10 List A matches in his 10 year career. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 06:53, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: while CRIN has some issues, and clearly does not have the full support of the community, the subject of this article played 32 matches at the highest level of the domestic game in Pakistan. During his 13-year career at that level, he appeared for six different teams. Additionally, we have some information about his lower-level cricket: his score of 410* ranks as around the 48th highest recorded score in the history of the game. The nominator suggests that "Another argument given by editors on similar pages is given that sources in other languages might exist, I am thoroughly unconvinced by this as none of these sources have materialized and I feel like it's an argument which can be used anywhere; all an editor has to do is claim that sources exist." But that is part of the point of an SNG. From what I can see online, I feel very confident that there would be local, offline coverage of this player, but I acknowledge that I do not have access to that, and can not demonstrate it. Ultimately, he well exceeds the bar set by CRIN, and any likely future iteration of it. Harrias talk 08:13, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

- As a routine match report it is entirely reasonable to discount such sources when performing a WP:BEFORE check.

- You are correct. The presumption of notability offered by WP:NCRIC on the basis of appearances has proven very unreliable where few matches have been played (hence progress at WT:NSPORT on removing it), so must be disregarded. Sources must be found that offer substantial coverage of the individual beyond routine & indiscriminate statistical databases in order to satisfy the requirements of WP:GNG, WP:BIO, WP:SPORTBASIC, etc. wjematherplease leave a message... 10:45, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

- No, only the requirements for a presumption of notability offered by WP:NCRIC has been met (which is unreliable at best).

- Comment The consensus from this RFC is that no subject specific guideline supercedes GNG, specifically sport (including NCRIC), and arguments must go further than bare "meets SNG" assertions.

The result was no consensus , defaulting to "keep". The outcome of this discussion hinges on the weight given to WP:NCRIC. There has been enough doubt cast on its utility that I am not comfortable unilaterally declaring it sufficient to overrule the concerns of those !voting "delete"; however, it is still a guideline, as things stand. A community-wide discussion about this SNG, and any others frequently seen to be too low a bar, would seem to be necessary. Vanamonde (Talk) 15:05, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

The article clearly doesn't meet WP:GNG. The sources in the article are simply directory/stats listings, which I believe do not establish notability. Have performed a WP:BEFORE and nothing came up. I've nominated two articles previously which were similar and they have been deleted (here and here). Editors over there cited the WP:CRIN guideline which is being debated itself and for it to change, precedent is needed, clearly those guidelines aren't being accepted and seem to me like they'll never be able to satisfy the GNG. Another argument given by editors on similar pages is given that sources in other languages might exist, I am thoroughly unconvinced by this as none of these sources have materialized and I feel like it's an argument which can be used anywhere; all an editor has to do is claim that sources exist. Please note I am a new editor and this is my understanding after trying my best to read as many guidelines and past discussions as possible, I could have easily made mistake, but I am just trying to be bold.

The result was no consensus , defaulting to "keep". The outcome of this discussion hinges on the weight given to WP:NCRIC. There has been enough doubt cast on its utility that I am not comfortable unilaterally declaring it sufficient to overrule the concerns of those !voting "delete"; however, it is still a guideline, as things stand. A community-wide discussion about this SNG, and any others frequently seen to be too low a bar, would seem to be necessary. Vanamonde (Talk) 15:05, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

- Comment "played in matches" only proves existence, not notability. Also, the consensus at this RFC is that "meets SNG" assertions are insufficient arguments at AfD. As noted above, there is also consensus at NSPORT that NCRIC/CRIN is far too permissive with respect to domestic matches played, and match tally is not a reliable indicator (especially when that tally is low). As such, evidence is required (i.e. substantial reliable coverage outside of stats databases) to show that the subject meets GNG/BIO/SPORTBASIC. wjematherplease leave a message... 16:58, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

- There is consensus (at WT:NSPORT) that the number of matches played is a very poor indicator for presumed notability, especially when that number is low (six is low). Having said that, I'm inclined to believe it is likely the required coverage (somewhere) could exist of someone who has played at FC level over several seasons, even if the total number of matches played is low. Also, neither of those match reports constitute significant coverage of the subject (he is only mentioned in passing) so could reasonably be disregarded when doing a BEFORE check. wjematherplease leave a message... 20:14, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

The result was keep. When someone who passes a SNG is reasonably challenged, as happened here, it is helpful if those advocating keep actually do more than reiterate that they pass the SNG. However, there is broad enough consensus here that despite the absence of sources there is still clearly a keep consensus. Barkeep49 (talk) 23:17, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

The article clearly doesn't meet WP:GNG. The sources in the article are simply directory/stats listings, which I believe do not establish notability. Have performed a WP:BEFORE and nothing came up. I've nominated two articles previously which were similar and they have been deleted (here and here). Editors over there cited the WP:CRIN guideline which is being debated itself and for it to change, precedent is needed, clearly those guidelines aren't being accepted and seem to me like they'll never be able to satisfy the GNG. Another argument given by editors on similar pages is given that sources in other languages might exist, I am thoroughly unconvinced by this as none of these sources have materialized and I feel like it's an argument which can be used anywhere; all an editor has to do is claim that sources exist. Please note I am a new editor and this is my understanding after trying my best to read as many guidelines and past discussions as possible, I could have easily made mistake, but I am just trying to be bold.

- Delete Fails GNG/BIO/SPORTBASIC. A great example of why there is consensus at NSPORT to rewrite NCRIC and remove the low-bar domestic appearance criteria – as such arguments based on this criteria should be disregarded. Only two LA and a clutch of T20 matches played, contributing very little in any of them – averaging under 10, presumably as a specialist batsman, so very unremarkable and unlikely to have generated coverage. No sources available beyond routine and indiscriminate statistics. wjematherplease leave a message... 20:25, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
- Well, it apparently meets WP:CRIN. Baseball's WP:NBASE trumps the GNG, and that's fine and that works, and we end up with articles about people who we don't even know their first name. Cricket's a big deal so I suppose for cricket its the same. As a practical matter, that's how people treat it. If you want to tighten up CRIN that's a different matter. Change CRIN, don't nominate articles that meet it. Also BTW the majority or our X million articles do not meet the GNG, which is a guideline IIRC.
- As always, a point to consider is: "For people searching on the string 'Taimur Siddiq', rather than taking them to this article it would be better to show them nothing, because _______." What goes in the blank? You'd want a compelling argument here.
- Granted, in this case, very few people access the article -- fewer than .5 a day, which rounds to zero. I think a reasonable question to ask at the CRIN page is "this guideline is supporting articles for which the daily readership approximates zero. Is this worthwhile? Would a series of mere lists be better for players with this level of notability?" But that's an issue with the guideline, not this page in particular. Cricket is important enough that, if cricket enthusiasts are controlling the page and are too liberal in their criteria, a WP:CENT WP:RFC would maybe be in order, since cricket is pretty important.
- On the other hand, we do have many articles with approximately zero readership... probably hundreds of thousands at least, articles like Mitrulinia (a fungus of extreme obscurity) and Pisgah, Virginia and so on. So maybe deleting cricket players of mind-boggling obscurity, and not funguses or populated places of mind-boggling obscurity, is just snobbery. Another point is that the First Pillar ("Wikipedia is an encyclopedia") says right off "Wikipedia... incorporates elements of general and specialized encyclopedias". Is www.espncricinfo (the main ref for the article) a specialized encyclopedia? It says here that it is. Herostratus (talk) 05:10, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- The consensus from this RFC is that no subject specific guideline supercedes GNG, specifically sport (include NBASE), and arguments must go further than bare "meets SNG" assertions. Ideally, articles such as these would simply be merged into lists, but those lists do not exist in many cases. wjematherplease leave a message... 08:38, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- That RfC has no such consensus. The headcount was about 18-17 in favor of the proposition (that no subject specific guideline supersedes the GNG, at least for sports), which is a tie, and the strength of argument was also such that an informed and disinterested person would have to aver that that's more or less a tie too. That can never be incontrovertibly proven of course, but it's certainly a reasonable conclusion. If somebody closed it as "proposition accepted" they made a mistake, or supervoted. That's OK; we're human here, with human failings. That doesn't mean we have to pay any attention to somebody's mistake (or supervote). Herostratus (talk) 18:33, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

The result was no consensus , defaulting to "keep". The outcome of this discussion hinges on the weight given to WP:NCRIC. There has been enough doubt cast on its utility that I am not comfortable unilaterally declaring it sufficient to overrule the concerns of those !voting "delete"; however, it is still a guideline, as things stand. A community-wide discussion about this SNG, and any others frequently seen to be too low a bar, would seem to be necessary. Vanamonde (Talk) 15:04, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

The result was no consensus. Sports AFDs are spotty oftentimes, as is the case here. While a sports SNG doesn't supercede GNG, there is no agreement in this dicussion on notability and it seems that nobody has actually performed a thorough search for sourcing. Redirection to List of Lahore City Whites cricketers would likely be a viable outcome, but we cannot redirect to an article that doesn't exist. Potentially there is/will be a discussion about wider cricket notability, one that cannot take place here but might resolve the debate. Eddie891 Talk Work 14:49, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

This article was created by the creator of the signs shown. It doesn't appear that this topic is sufficiently notable to merit it's own article per WP:GNG, with only some low-quality sources noting their creation in 2011 and an extremely niche source noting that they had changed colour in 2015.

Reliable sources cover Courtney both in the context of his government work and his notorious fraud; with coverage by the NYTimes, Daily Beast, CBS News, NBC News, ABC News, and WaPo, among many others, Courtney is not low-profile; and as the central figure in a fraud scheme, his role is both important and well-documented.

Lake Greeno proper was a short-lived reservoir constructed to supply water to the area around Susanville; its dam was washed out at least once, and GNIS hasn't heard of it. I found a book on a Margaret Greeno which I can only read some short excepts of, but I can see that it mentions the 4th class post office as a place where people got mail, and it talks a bit about the reservoir. What I cannot find is anything much beyond that. Fairfield's history of the county mentions George Greeno very briefly, and says nothing about the reservoir; I get lots of hits about banking (which seem connected to Reno, not California) and a passing mention of a Lake Greeno Precinct. But nothing I get says it was a town. Mangoe (talk) 16:37, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- Since I last worked on this article she racked up a significant publication record. Did your BEFORE extend to taking a good look at the google scholar search and google book search results?
- Keep Hodgkinson was not merely another civil servant. She was a senior figure who went on record with significant controversial opinions -- as substantiated by RS. Geo Swan (talk) 04:08, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Hodgkinson is notable because she replaced Charles "Cully" Stimson following his controversial resignation
obviously isn't much use. I hadn't though to check google scholar, but her most cited publication appears to be this with 26 citations, so meeting WP:ACADEMIC is unlikely. All I'm seeing on Google Books is brief mentions. Please specify which sources you think push her over the notability threshold and support your claim of "significant controverial opinions -- as substantiated by RS." SmartSE (talk) 08:46, 10 September 2020 (UTC)- WRT Academic - we have GNG - the general notability guideline, supplemented by a handful of special purpose notability guidelines. Those special purpose notability guidelines, like ACADEMIC, supercede GNG, in the narrow conditions where they are fully applicable. WP:SOLDIER says anyone who reaches flag rank, or who is awarded their countries highest medal merits a standalone article, without regard to whether they did or didn't measure up to GNG. I suggest you make a huge mistake in how you are trying to apply ACADEMIC here.
No one is claiming that Hodgkinson measures up to ACADEMIC, and that her measuring up to ACADEMIC should supercede GNG.
Only a small fraction of BLP measure up to SOLDIER, ACADEMIC, etc. Your mistake is to then act like the scholarly references that support Hodgkinson measuring up to GNG should be totally discounted. For the 95 or 97 or 99 percent of BLP whose notability is established by measuring up to GNG, not by measuring up to a special purpose guideline, like ACADEMIC, the nominator, ie you, and everyone else weighing in, has an obligation to independently evaluate all the known and knowable notability criteria, and then doing a kind of notability calculation, where they add up all those notability factors.
The US Federal government is very large - employing millions. Does it employ tens of millions? How many people retire every year? 200,000? 300,000? When Hodgkinson retired she didn't immediately go to work as a lawyer, or for a large corporation. She accepted a fellowship, for a year or two. That is when she wrote those academic papers. Only the very smartest, most respected retiring Federal employees get invited to accept a fellowship. Some of those highly respected individuals who accept fellowships don't go on to write academic papers. They share what they learned, in government service, verbally, in seminars, or informal discussions. Those, like Hodgkinson, who do write papers, are more valuable that those who don't. Do these fellowships come with a stipend? Are they like a Post-doctoral fellowship? Can fellows who show they function like professors, by leading seminars, giving lectures, jump to being full-fledged academics? Good question. I dunno. Some fellowships may be part-time, with no stipend. Other may offer a stipend no higher than that offered to a grad student serving as a teaching assistant. And still others may pay comparably to actual professors. I suggest that, since only a tiny fraction of retiring Federal employees get one, even the largely honorary fellowship is highly prestigious, and confers considerable notability. Geo Swan (talk) 22:17, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Geo Swan: So which notability criterion is met? Publishing scholarly articles is not enough to meet GNG - we need there to be multiple sources about her or at least describing her impact. If her work was as important as you claim, someone should have written about it, rather than just mentioning her name as a result of her employment. Thousands of mentions aren't equivalent to in-depth coverage. SmartSE (talk) 22:39, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

- WRT your dismissal of "passing mentions" - this thesis, for instance, devotes two and a half pages to Hodgkinson, the first Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Detainee Affairs with a background in human rights law. I dispute your characterization of it as a "passing mention". For the wikipedia to function smoothly everyone should take a leaf from Gerald Weinberg's advice for the "egoless programming team". We all have to be prepared to consider that that we might be wrong and that they other guy has made valid points. We should welcome when the other guy makes a valid point, because we didn't come here to win arguments. We should be coming here to build the best encyclopedia possible, not to fight every argument to the bitter end.

- @Geo Swan: - I had seen the early revisions, e.g. but the sources don't seem sufficient in that either. It was a long time ago -
The two and a half pages of coverage of Hodgkinson's role in crafting Detainee treatment begins with this paragraph... - Sandy Hodgkinson, a lawyer who worked detention issues at the National Security Council, had been trying to get the job since its creation. She applied after Waxman left, but Under Secretary of Defence Henry did not want to work with her. After Stimson left, the slot was open for several months before Secretary of State Condaleeza Rice called the new SECDEF, Robert Gates, to recommend Hodgkinson for the job. She was also endorsed by Waxman and John Bellinger at the Special War Crimes Issues Office at the Department of State, the office tasked with the transfer and release of detainees from GTMO. Even after these endorsements, the DOD was still not going to hire her. When Stimson heard people were upset over the vacancy his resignation created, he also recommended Hodgkinson get the job; she was finally hired in July 2007.
- This is just one example, from one paper.
- Some deletionists try to insist that every BLP include the mundane milestones of individuals lives - like date of birth, hometown, dates of marriages, births of children, degrees earned. Okay, when documentable, some of this material should be included. But it is not what makes an individual notable, and its absence does not erode their notability. DGG said it best, a decade ago. Individuals are notable for what they did and what they wrote (paraphrasing from memory), not for their marriages, children, hometowns.
- Articles don't have to be perfect, to avoid deletion - they merely should be on notable topics. Geo Swan (talk) 23:49, 14 September 2020 (UTC)

Never played an NFL/CFL/XFL/pro arena game, so he fails WP:NGRIDIRON. His college career does not rise to the level of WP:NCOLLATH. This source appears to be from the college he played for, so it isn't really independent. This piece mentions him, but only briefly. Gets three sentences here in a list of memorable plays from SEC championship games, but it's not a whole lot, and I'm not sure exactly how reliable that source is, it may be a bit sports-bloggy. There's some brief references in old game summaries like this one. He played on some good LSU teams, but that doesn't make him notable, and I'm not seeing a pass of either SNG or the WP:GNG here.

spammy article about a non-notable musician, sourced almost entirely to rehashed press releases, puff pieces and interviews. Praxidicae (talk) 11:13, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
If I remember correctly you moved the article to draft space, stating that the article does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources.
I have worked on the article and added more citations from reliable and independent sources. In Nigeria, every news agency on the article reference is as big as the New York Times in the US, and the Guardian in the UK. (talk) 12:51, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep Thanks all for your inputs, I quite don't agree on the part of the subject not being notable, media publications in various countries have their peculiarities, the subject is quite notable in his country Nigeria, I just added more reference sources to more recent publications made concerning the subject being recognized by three National youth organizations for his business achievements and youth development. These publications were made before the request for deletion. The subject's Music label has a verified page on Instagram and you and I know it's more easier to get a Wikipedia page than to be verified on Instagram. The article has nothing promotional other than just cited mentions of necessary contents that should make up a normal Wikipedia page. If there are areas anyone feel needs to be corrected, it can be pointed out for corrections rather than suggesting deletion.

I believe the article should be deleted because it cannot be shown to meet the WP:GNG. No reliable and independent sources are provided in the article and a Google search, while yielding many results, does not turn out any reliable third-part sources either. The article also does not meet the notability guidelines at WP:FOOTYN. According to these, a club is notable if 1) it has played at step 6 of the National League System or 2) in any of FA Cup, FA Trophy, FA Amateur Cup or FA Vase. I've had a look at comparable clubs in the same league. Polytechnic F.C., for example, has a Wikipedia article, but they are clearly notable for having played in the FA Cup of 1884–5. If no such accomplishment can be shown for Winchmore Hill, it should not be included on Wikipedia. Modussiccandi (talk) 10:15, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- In general, people do not go around using this term as an alternative term for boy, and so it should not be presented
that wayas some general usage thing in the lead, especially in the lead sentence. To repeat what I stated before when reverting you the first time on the WP:Lead sentence, "The term is firmly established within the LGBT community. What sources state that heterosexuals commonly use this term?" You stated, "[C]ommon slang as a shortened term for boy." What reliable source supports that claim? How is the meme usage the primary usage of the term? Like YorkshireLad stated below, "based on a cursory Google, with less sourcing seemingly available discussing the word in the more general meme context." As you know, I reverted your dictionary-sourced definition again. You cited this Dictionary.com source. Well, this Dictionary.com source states, "informal [...] a lesbian who adopts a boyish appearance or manner." CollinsDictionary.com states, "informal [...] a lesbian who adopts a boyish appearance or manner." Various other dictionary sources state the same. But regardless of what dictionary sources state, it's not uncommon for dictionaries to give plain and/or outdated definitions of terms. As we know, they commonly do...especially since they list different senses, including historical senses, of terms. This is a topic covered by academic sources, not just dictionaries. And per WP:SCHOLARSHIP, a topic like this should mainly be relying on academic sources. Per WP:Not a dictionary, even articles about terms should go beyond a dictionary definition. We should be looking at what academic sources state about this topic. And I know what they state about it. They are focused on the LGBT community. And as for popular culture material? See WP:"In popular culture" content and WP:Trivia. No Wikipedia article is obligated to have an "In popular culture" section. And, in fact, Wikipedia articles are usually better off without such content. I'll alert WP:LGBT to this AfD. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 20:28, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep I'm not seeing a rationale for deletion here, and, as the sources already cited in the article demonstrate, the word seems to pass WP:GNG based on the LGBTQ+ context alone. The fact that the article didn't cover other uses of the word (the sense in which I've come across it most, though, based on a cursory Google, with less sourcing seemingly available discussing the word in the more general meme context) doesn't seem to be a reason to delete an article about the sense that is well-sourced—and, indeed, the nom has subsequently expanded the article to cover more senses. Merging to Gender roles in non-heterosexual communities doesn't really work because of the other senses, as now covered. YorkshireLad ✿ (talk) 16:17, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep or merge elsewhere. It appears to me that LoganBlade nominated this article on a WP:IDON'TLIKEIT basis. Also, he is for having the lead sentence simply define the term as an alternative spelling for boy, with no mention of the very WP:Due lesbian aspect or the LGBT community in general, and for unduly positioning the popular/meme content ahead of the actual topic. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 20:28, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: The existing reference to Female Chauvinist Pigs: Women and the Rise of Raunch Culture specifically discusses the use of the word "boi" for several pages. Same for Gay L.A. : a history of sexual outlaws, power politics, and lipstick lesbians.

- Keep in line with what the users above said. If the OP wants to add content to the page, they should do that instead of trying to delete the page. Deleting a page is not a positive way to generate discussion on a topic. Anyway, I found an article in Mother Jones which defines boi as "a boyish lesbian, a soft butch (aka butch lite), a biological boy who hangs in queer circles, or a member of OutKast," which links to an article in AfterEllen. Also, Montclair University's list of LGBTQ terminology gives a similar definition, as does a SFGate article and another article on MSNBC's website. There are a number of other good sources, like the origins of the term described in Mediated Boyhoods: Boys, Teens, and Young Men in Popular Media and Culture and an article in New York magazine titled "Where the Bois Are". And there are even more sources as well, as this is just scratching the surface. Historyday01 (talk) 19:07, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

- Redirect to Magneto (Marvel Comics). The current article has no reliable, secondary sources, and aside from the single sentence at the beginning stating its creators, is nothing but plot summaries and a list of appearances. Searching for sources turns up the usual plot recaps/summaries in comic sites or brief mentions. It actually has a "Top Ten" listicle all of its own, here, but it consists entirely of just plot information. Its already covered in the lengthy plot information on Magneto's article, so a Redirect there would make sense. Rorshacma (talk) 15:18, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep - any list has the potential for lots of cruft, but the fact that it's notable POW's limits who can appear on the list. However, anyone on the list without a WP article should be removed. The lack of references, as per WP:LISTN is not an issue, since the underlying concept, POW's, is clearly notable. LISTN also states, "Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable, although editors may, at their discretion, choose to limit large lists by only including entries for independently notable items or those with Wikipedia articles."Onel5969 TT me 12:46, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- ”The articles and subcategories in Category:Prisoners of war provide guidance as to how this could be developed further and subdivided by header, or split into sublists.” postdlf (talk) 15:47, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
- Prisoners of war is a valid category, its not a valid list. As I have said above, a comprehensive list of prisoners of war would run to thousands of people who have pages and so would be of no value. We have lists of prisoners of war by conflict, country, nationality etc, which is acceptable and of value, but having a list of everyone who has ever been a prisoner of war is pointless. Mztourist (talk) 06:09, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- Moral support for deletion: although this list is going to be kept, there's absolutely no way it could ever become encyclopedically useful, because it is far too indiscriminate by its very nature. For WP:LSC, on of the criteria is "If this person/thing/etc. weren't X, would it reduce their fame or significance?" In the vast majority of cases, the answer is "no".

- @Speccledct: You have not explained why you think PROF or BIO are met. Being a professor and publishing articles and books is not sufficient. SmartSE (talk) 07:39, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
- @SmartSE: The first criteria for WP:PROF is that the person’s research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources. I cannot find many orthopaedic surgeons anywhere in the world that were awarded £1,505,666.72 to be a chief investigator in a national research study [29]. He appears to have made a significant impact on researching ankle arthritis [30][31]. He was invited as a guest speaker at the Canadian American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society [32], the British Orthopaedic Association [33] and his research is nominated for the Roger Mann Award at the American Orthopaedic Society [34] which all seem to be reliable sources. With regards WP:BIO the first criteria is having received a well recognised and significant honour - He received an OBE [35]. I cannot see anywhere is WP:BIO it stating that an MBE or OBE is not a well recognised nor a significant honour. Adele received an MBE [36] and Victoria Beckham an OBE [37]. Incidentally on the WP:BIO page under the heading for Academics it states that “Many scientists, researchers, philosophers and other scholars (collectively referred to as "academics" for convenience) are notably influential in the world of ideas without their biographies being the subject of secondary sources.”. His papers have been cited thousands of times by other researchers [38] and so are influential. SpeccledCT (talk) 11:24, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

Order of the British Empire does NOT bestow notability and such argument above should be disregarded: well over 200 UK people received it in 2011 alone, few of which are WP notable.

But with three people supporting delete, and only you opposing it, it will surely be deleted. I-League 2nd Division is not listed as fully-professional at WP:FPL - is there any indication that it is (that is, that players are paid enough, that they don't have other employment)? Alternatively, is there any in-depth media coverage (in any language) about him, that is more than just he was transferred? I'm surprised he didn't appear to play anywhere in 2020, given that football didn't stop until late in March 2020. Nfitz (talk) 15:26, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

I can't even believe we are having this discussion in 2020. There is nothing notable about the murderer outside of the fact he was a murderer yet we are left with a written biography detailing his entire life while his victims are either objectified by a "murder of" article are left to be a black word list on the Wikipedia biography of their murderer. It's sickening and disturbing.Tsistunagiska (talk) 16:36, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- Also, I would like to point out that Wikipedia:"Murder of" articles is an essay and not Wikipedia policy therefore, while it is perfectly fine to include it in discussion it should not be considered anything more than an essay. It is not a guideline, policy or requirement when creating an article. This is just further evidence of systemic bias against women and a notable young innocent who became the face of, as my friend SusunW so eloquently points out, "everywoman" after her murder.Tsistunagiska (talk) 16:47, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep I am adamantly opposed to the deletion of this article as I believe she meets the requirements for notability.Tsistunagiska (talk) 17:02, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
Comment—Tsistunagiska, !vote “keep” or “delete” to make life easier for whomever determines consensus... 😉Montanabw(talk) 17:04, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep, she was the victim whose murder broke the case. As such, she was unique and not merely a face in the crowd. I would reluctantly live with moving to a “murder of” title, but I hate the objectification inherent in those titling conventions. So 1. keep as named, or 2, keep,with a different title. Montanabw(talk) 17:04, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep (edit conflict) I came here after reading Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Women_in_Red#Jayne_MacDonald_and_wider_women's_issues where there is a very good discussion going on. I would say a few things myself here, though. First of all, the nom is citing an essay as if it's policy. In addition, this is not a one event situation and the victim does have notability. The murder of this young person led to a change in society. If that's not notable, I can't imagine what is. It's a horrible way for that to happen, but the fact is that because of this victim, many changes occurred among the police, in journalism and was taken up in a feminist response. I think that what Tsistunagiska brings up about the way we handle murderers vs victims is a problem, but until we change Wikipedia policy, we have to go with what we have. I support a change in the way we write about murderers and victims, especially in the sense that there is evidence that some people enact violence in order to become immortalized in history. The lack of attention to victims is a problem that should be addressed. As for this article in particular, I believe that the subject of the article passes GNG for coverage over time and also for the legacy that she left behind. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 17:10, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per @Montanabw and Megalibrarygirl. --Rosiestep (talk) 01:13, 12 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep I think Montanabw and Megalibrarygirl make good points. The sourcing is adequate, the victim has a distinguished status, and even if essays were binding (they're not), this would be a case for renaming or merging, not deletion. XOR'easter (talk) 20:10, 16 September 2020 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Of the seven cited sources, four are brief mentions, and two are not independent (press release and company website). From the remaining source I can squeeze one encyclopedia-worthy sentence, "In 2010, Aftab Foods spent US$2.4 million to launch ground spices operations."[43]
Searches of the usual Google types, EBSCO, Gale, JSTOR, and ProQuest found little else about this Aftab Group (there are unrelated ones in Pakistan and the UAE-Iran). At most, I could add "In 2011, Aftab Jute Mills planned to commence spinning 15 tonnes of yarn a day."[44] (Nine years later, the parent website still says "Aftab Jute Mills ltd is going to be added to Aftab Group to march its venture within a short span of time with a large variety of jute products in and innovative manner. It is to be situated at Rupshi in Narayangonj," so it doesn't look like their plans ever came to fruition). And "As of 2019, Aftab Milk is one of 14 milk pasteurizers in the country and splits a 20% share of the market with ten other companies."[45]
There would be more than three sentences to say about a 60-year-old private company if it were notable. WP:NCORP calls for WP:SIGCOV - coverage that addresses the topic directly and in detail. That doesn't exist for Aftab Group. Worldbruce (talk) 01:38, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- Keep I think being a Major in the British army and fighting in the Battle of Waterloo constitutes being a notable person.
- Delete Being a major is no where near the level of notability, that is conferred only by being at least the level of Brigadier.

Doesn't seem notable, searching Wikipedia doesn't find other articles mentioning it, Google returns nothing but its own pages and a couple of directory entries, issues haven't been attended to since templates posted in 2014. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 00:29, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- Delete Agreed. Not notable enough. TruthLover123 (talk) 01:41, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Topic is significant in global context, and Christian evangelicals are working diligently in this outreach area. I think that the topic of this ministry should be seen on its own terms, not MERELY in terms of how Wikipedians have discussed notability for celebrities or politicians or commercial products. MaynardClark (talk) 02:08, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- Comment If an exception to our notability guidelines should be carved out for areas of outreach that Christian evangelicals are working diligently in, this is hardly the place for that discussion. More to the point, if it is "significant in global context", reliable sources around the world are clearly dropping the ball here. - SummerPhDv2.0 16:51, 9 September 2020 (UTC)

- Delete: Not notable, as best I can tell. With a name like "run ministries" it's difficult to get good results on an internet search. However, I would have expected the article's author (who commented here on this AfD) to have put more citations in the article demonstrating notability. The article has been hatnote-tagged for its entire 6 year history, has been severely over-tagged with categories, stub-templates, see-also links, and 13 wikiprojects!... and yet the article barely explains the organization. Normal Op (talk) 07:13, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- You clearly have not seen many Wikipedia articles. Do you realize how many are sourced only to an organization or individuals webpage? How many are sourced only to IMDb? How many have existed for over a decade with no sources at all? OK, we should expect better, but the reality is there are some categories where we have huge numbers of articles on minor entities.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:10, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Johnpacklambert: Yes I have. Yes. Yes. Too many. I'm aware of that and have myself AfD'd articles about tiny non-notable organizations sourced only to themselves for decades. What was your point? Reminder: NOTFORUM. Normal Op (talk) 16:44, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
- I get the same 2-3 'critics' who manage to show up whenever I weigh in on an article, even if without strong opinions - as if one is being stalked. Many organized groups are doing 'work' in the area professed by RUN ministries, so I doubt that they are sufficiently unique to warrant a distinct article. But ought their name to be included in another article? Honestly, I don't know. I looked around in several ways and found (a) persons younger than I had expected and (b) very little that helped me build a deeper, wider, higher, better, more robust picture of RUN ministries. I doubt that anyone NEEDS to seek journalistic comments when trying to rescue sexual slaves from bondage, but what's wrong with my expressing a sense that our priorities may not lead to the best effort on producing this organization's article. This online encyclopedia may not be the mechanism for publishing a coherent picture of what RUN ministries is and has been (and maybe that's OK). RUN is an acronym for Reaching Unreached Nations (a missionary idea). I tried to search on each of the variations of the founder's name and on the names of the key persons listed in the financial documents (which I thought would be good to include in part for that reason). I agree with 'Summer' (and others) that 'primary sources' are not what Wikipedia 'wants' (but then, again, it's not Britannica). MaynardClark (talk) 21:04, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

- Comment -- This appears to be about a missionary organisation, probably one trying to spread its work too thinly with too many mission fields and objectives. Rescuing and releasing slaves is a worthy cause, but this is not an article about slavery or anti-slavery. Apart from that there is far too little on what the organisation actually does. It is just an ADVERT. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:26, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Driessen & Cole from the page are two references towards GNG, a third one is here.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 21:53, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- How is Cole a source for this article? I see no mention of the subject organization (let alone meaningful coverage). It's cited as a source for Kay Hiramine being the director. While the article does mention him, its as a spy heading a Pentagon-front group called "Humanitarian International Services Group", not mentioned here.
- As for Driessen, I'm seeing no indication it is an independent source. Along with heavily partisan language and cheerleading throughout, it ends with "There are few better ways to step forward … and begin your 2015 giving … than by helping now."
- The new source you've provided is similarly heavily partisan and a cheerleader for the organization, again ending with an appeal for money for the organization: "We need to help RUN Ministries get as many blankets as possible, as quickly as possible, to ISIS survivors in their 'Community of Hope' refugee camps and safe homes. Eric and his teams are praSubstanying for and expecting a financial miracle this Thanksgiving."
- Yes, there is "substantial coverage" in two of those, but it's not from "independent reliable sources". - SummerPhDv2.0 01:04, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per above. Their work with rescuing women and children from ISIS is quite newsworthy notable. It's been around for 30 years and has plenty of news mentions. Batmanthe8th (talk) 18:39, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
- "News mentions" (which I don't see here in any case) are not helpful. For the organization to be "notable" we need substantial coverage in independent reliable sources, which we do not have. - SummerPhDv2.0 20:35, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
- It may well be a very worthy organisation, but it just doesn't appear to have the coverage in secondary sources required for wp notability. I think that it would be fine to put a paragraph about it in the Slavery in the 21st century article (perhaps with a redirect), but not a whole article at this point.
