Non-notable event that lacks SIGCOV and doesn't meet GNG. No real RSs seem to exist, in fact the only real mention of it seems to be in a handful of YouTube videos. Bestagon23:27, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:notability, Wikipedia:Notability (academics) Fails notability criteria, WP:notability and Notability for academics criteria Wikipedia:Notability (academics) She was never a professor and the number of citations arising from her PhD is small. Anubus13 (talk) 09:26, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The book on Helwan excavations of which she is co-author is also cited 44 times, and "Excavations at Hierakonpolis" 39 times. static shakedown ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ 21:23, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Are you familiar with the field of Egyptology ? Again I ask what makes her not notable? According to notability guidelines: A person is notable if
  • The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times; or
  • The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in a specific field; or
  • The person has an entry in a country's standard national biographical dictionary (e.g. the Dictionary of National Biography).
Her contribution to textile analysis from ancient Egypt is widely cited and widely known in the field. Her most famous work was shortlisted for a 2015 Times Higher Education Award as mentioned here. static shakedown ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ 17:06, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The question is whether she is notable (ie, it requires a proof of a positive case for notability). And in terms of these specific points:
1. She has not received a well known or significant honour or been nominated for one several times. A single shortlisting for an award which is, with respect, not a particularly significant honour cannot satisfy this criterion.
2. Her contribution is not widely recognised. She has done no more than most other PhD and single contributing authors. I have several family members with PhDs and academic publications who have exponentially citations than her and are not in Wikipedia. 107 citations of her Phd, 44 for a co-authored book and 39 for one article is not something which, by itself, is objectively capable of being considered "wide". Unless some verifiable identified expert and notable person in the field gives such an opinion despite her limited contribution and citations, this criterion cannot be met.
3. She does not have an entry in any country's standard national biographical dictionary. Again, this criterion is not met. Anubus13 (talk) 08:00, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: I'm relisting this discussion as there is discussion but no actual "votes", as they are used in AFDs, regarding what should happen with this article. We have one editor who is insistent that this page not be deleted and asks for more time to work on the article so this relist can offer a short delay on closure. But we really need more opinions for editors who browse through AFD discussions.

Note Several Twenty20 pages have existed includimg thier annual leagues for many years, and in my opinion, it is not appropriate to nominate them for deletion.

It appears that certain teams are selectively promoting specific and state-level leagues while pushing for the deletion of others. This practice seems to favor the retention of pages related to their preferred leagues, potentially at the expense of others.

Wikipedia is a global platform that should uphold the principle of equality for all pages that have significant coverage. It's important to ensure that all state and national leagues with significant covearge, regardless of their popularity or backing, are treated fairly and given the opportunity to be represented. Consistent and unbiased application of Wikipedia's guidelines is crucial to maintaining its integrity as a reliable and inclusive source of information.

Self-promotional and self-penned promo bio of yet another right-wing podcaster, Digital Creator and Twitter troll. Andy Dingley (talk) 21:39, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Authors and Sweden. Shellwood (talk) 21:48, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Malcom Kyeyune has been a columnist for Göteborgs-Posten (the dominating newspaper in western Sweden), Fokus (magazine) (one of the most important political magazines), w:sv:Dagens Samhälle and so on. While I'm sure the article can be improved improved (it really looks like it's been written to convince the reader of Kyeyune's importance), the nomination makes him sound like a someone who writes on social media and tries to use Wikipedia to inflate his own importance. Kyeyune has had regular access to key print platforms, across several publications. Nor am I entirely convinced this article is self-penned, looking at the main editor's contributions and how they connect across Swedish political topics. /Julle (talk) 23:26, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Not only is the writer mostly involved in left-wing publications, he is in a sufficient number of mainstream international/English-speaking ones. 1 2 3 I think he's notable enough to meet notability criteria. Additionally I don't think there is any rule against authors about people based on them being right or left-leaning, or on their activities on social media. By all means though if anyone thinks the article warrants improvement go ahead of course. FelipeFritschF (talk)
  • Keep per Julle. Thriley (talk) 16:53, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep if improved, the only secondary source with significant coverage is the ETC article, but there seems to be at least one other source here [5] (along with several other articles at Flamman). This is extremely borderline for WP:NBASIC but given his still somewhat significant role in Swedish political debate I'm leaning towards notability.

Only one source listed is an actual review/has outside commentary and what seems to be independence. I was unable to find anything else. A lot of the sources fall under WP:NEWSORGINDIA which further confuses matters. Redirect to Kamlesh Patel (Daaji)? PARAKANYAA (talk) 21:48, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  3. not independent (by author of book)
  4. has a byline, not short, not in an obvious ads-only section; the best source in the article at present, but it's still not... great
  5. not independent (by author of book)
  6. basically a celebrity endorsement? really don't think this is fully independent

This appears to be a hoax, or at the very least non-notable. The article was created by User:Anabwani2007, whose only edits consist of creating and editing this article, as well as adding a mention of Anabwani to Omukama of Bunyoro. None of the links presently given in the article even mention Anabwani. I wasn't able to find even a mention in reliable sources either. A Ugandan newspaper, Daily Monitor, mentions him in an article, but that's it (and their list is sourced to the monarchy's website anyway, where he's similarly merely mentioned once). toweli (talk) 19:16, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redundant disambiguation page. There is already a comprehensive dab page at Pan Am (disambiguation); this page instead only disambiguates between two articles which could be disambiguated via hatnote if necessary, or not at all, now that their leads have been clarified, and the relationship between the articles in question has been explained much more meaningfully there. --Deeday-UK (talk) 11:45, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Not much to discuss, really. But if you delete it, just make sure that "Pan American Airways" (Pan American world Airways's earlier name) redirects to the "Pan Am (disambiguation)" disambiguation page. Otherwise you will recreate the problem the deleted disambgation page was trying to correct.

I'm not sure what you suggest is necessary: Pan American Airways currently redirects to Pan Am, and on that article there is a rather prominent hatnote that lists both the Pan American Airways articles in question.

See also the article’s Talk page. This should be a basic redirect to The Warning (band) but I suspect it will be contested so I’m bringing it here for consensus. I am very familiar with The Warning and wrote a sizeable chunk of their article, but Alejandra simply has not achieved any individual notability outside of the band, per the requirements of WP:BANDMEMBER and WP:NOTINHERITED. This article merely repeats info from the band article plus some fan trivia, and rather desperately tries to beef things up with more trivia about her gear. Note that Alejandra’s sister/bandmate Paulina Villarreal also has her own article, but that one is a bit stronger because Paulina has earned notice from pro drumming publications. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:49, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Of the three sources here, CBR is marginally reliable but not usable for notability. Den of Geek is a passing mention. Vulture is about the Simpsons episode.

    I haven't checked that article yet, so I'm not going to evaluate its contents at this second, but I don't think the Vulture article helps the character's notability. It has nothing about the character, it is about the Simpsons episode that has a pop culture reference to the Planet of the Apes. It would probably help A Fish Called Selma (where it is in EL).

  • Keep, as there are multiple academic publications that establish the character's notability (listed chronologically by year of publication with partial elaborations of the coverage included below each entry; these are nonexhaustive, and multiple of the sources include more material than can be concisely summarized here):
    • Eric Greene, Planet of the Apes as American Myth: Race and Politics in the Films and Television Series (McFarland & Company, 1996)
      • Analyzes Zaius as an antagonist and critic of humanity and his character's references to American political contexts at the time of the film's release (50–51, 57). Also contrasts the character with other antagonists in the series, like Aldo (120).

    • John Huss, ed., Planet of the Apes and Philosophy: Great Apes Think Alike, Popular Culture & Philosophy Series (Open Court Publishing Company, 2013)
      • Travis Michael Timmerman's chapter "Who Comes First, Humans or Apes?" assesses Zaius as an antagonist and as a depiction of speciesism in the franchise (69–71).
      • Bernard E. Rollin and Huss's chapter "Science's Crazy Dogma" also examines the Zaius character as a fictional exploration of conflating religion with science and of ideological commitment overshadowing rational observation (42–52)
      • Greg Littmann's chapter "Banana Republic" writes about Zaius's role in the story as an antagonist and in the setting as a character who fits the archetype of Plato's ideal ruler (131–134).

Per WP:NOTNEWS and WP:EVENTCRIT. From what I've been able to find, only primary sources exist with no secondary sources existing on the event. The event does not have in-depth nor continued coverage with coverage only briefly occurring in the aftermath of the crash.

    Hi! Pardon me, but I don't really get it. This flight is listed on ASN, which is often used even as a sole source for some aviation accidents. Why is this article any different? --Global Donald (talk) 00:29, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Generally speaking, ASN is mostly reliable although you need to evaluate each source on their own merits. The ASN entry on this accident simply states, "An Antonov 26 aircraft, operated by Aerogaviota on behalf of the Cuban Armed Forces, impacted the Loma de la Pimienta mountain, north of San Cristobal in Cuba. All eight occupants sustained fatal injuries. The aircraft operated on a training flight.". In my opinion, I'm not exactly sure how this establishes notability. If other articles solely use ASN as their source, then either the article needs more sources (see Template:One source) or the article doesn't meet wikipedia's notability guidelines. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 04:58, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – Only primary sources exist? What are you talking about? All of the sources referenced in the article (BBC, news outlets and the ASN) are secondary. Primary sources would have been any press releases from the airline involved, or from the contracting customer (the Cuban armed forces). --Deeday-UK (talk) 09:15, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    ASN is a tertiary source as it summarizes primary and secondary sources. Per WP:SECONDARY, a secondary source "provides thought and reflection based on primary sources, generally at least one step removed from an event. It contains analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the facts, evidence, concepts, and ideas taken from primary sources." The BBC article does not contain analysis, evaluation nor interpretation of the facts, evidence, concepts, and ideas taken from primary sources. Regardless, quoting WP:PRIMARY, "breaking news stories are considered to be primary sources." Aviationwikiflight (talk) 09:27, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The BBC article you linked is not a breaking news story; it's an ordinary news report – which admittedly does not contain a great deal of information. The ASN may be a tertiary source, but there's no ban on using 'reliable tertiary sources', per policy that you linked (and the non-user-generated content on the ASN is generally reliable). You could argue that there aren't enough sources covering this event, but not that they are the wrong kind of sources, or else the vast majority of sources used for accident articles that we all agree belong to Wikipedia would fall foul of such characterization. --Deeday-UK (talk) 18:31, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Supreme God (Hinduism) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article, which was whipped into existence just a few months ago, is negated by the very well-sourced and detailed God in Hinduism article we have had up for a long time (and is even specifically covered by other articles like Ishvara and Svayam Bhagavan). The new article also makes a lot of dubious and selectively-sourced claims, such as insinuating that all Hindus are monotheistic, as well as outright declaring that all schools of Hinduism believe in a supreme God (decidedly not true: many well-established and well-sourced articles, including the God in Hinduism article, cover this in detail). I believe the case for deletion is straightforward. HalfdanRagnarsson (talk) 16:05, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I just read multiple articles that talk about how the belief in Hinduism id all sects of Hinduism do have the core belief in a singular supreme being. So I don't understand why you would want to delete this article unless specifically in the one you are talking about that you apparently have you specifically mention that although there are other deities in Hinduism they do believe in an ultimate god. It actually comes off very much like you want this article deleted because you are bothered by the idea of all mainstream religions having the belief in a singular ultimate god. Also just a quick example a political figure named Tulsi Gabbard who comes from a Hindu background and attributes her beliefs to hinduism has also said that in the Hindu faith they believe absolutely there is a Singular supreme god above all the other gods. 24.49.133.48 (talk) 07:51, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect (or delete, either would be appropriate) The references added since the original nomination all fall under the banner of WP:LOCALCOVERAGE (since most are from the local council newspaper) or non-independent sources. There are two references to the club from the website of the Herald Sun, which ostensibly meets the threshold of being a major statewide newspaper – but a closer look would suggest that those are both the 'Local Footy' section of the newspaper's website, which tends to be an online mirror of affiliated council newspapers – plus they're quite WP:ROUTINE.

List of electoral firsts in New Zealand (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Fails WP:NLIST. Closest thing I can find is this: [20]. Ultimately this is WP:LISTCRUFT with no reliable source dictating which 'firsts' are notable and worthy of inclusion. All MPs are presumed notable so having them be notable by other characteristics typically involves original research. Traumnovelle (talk) 08:29, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DISAGREE Re ‘’ List of electoral firsts in New Zealand ‘’ Wikipedia articles on individual MPs frequently refer to an individual MPs claim to fame eg being the longest serving MP (Rex Mason), and the parliamentary website itself has a list of “longest serving Members of Parliament” [[ https://www.parliament.nz/en/visit-and-learn/mps-and-parliaments-1854-onwards/longest-serving-members-of-parliament/ ]]. There are similar lists for other countries eg List of electoral firsts in Canada and List of electoral firsts in the United Kingdom. Hence I do not see the need for an item by item justification of this or similar lists. Hugo999 (talk) 10:49, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:OSE and what Wikipedia writes isn't relevant here. WP:NLIST is which states: 'Notability guidelines also apply to the creation of stand-alone lists and tables. Notability of lists (whether titled as "List of Xs" or "Xs") is based on the group. One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list. The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been'. Traumnovelle (talk) 20:28, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment can you explain your logic with All MPs are presumed notable so having them be notable by other characteristics typically involves original research.? I don't follow at all, and your point here seems to be adding 2 and 2 to get 7. Turnagra (talk) 20:22, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Many of these entries involve original research, for example Iriaka Ratana's source here: [21] does not say she is the first. Instead someone has come to that conclusion via their own research. Stating that these MPs are notable for their 'firsts' is also typically original research, as without a source that states it it's an assumption that their 'first' made them notable rather than the fact that being an MP makes one notable. Traumnovelle (talk) 20:25, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Having sourcing issues doesn't necessarily mean that it's original research, though. A cursory google search of that specific example found this within about 20 seconds. I also still fail to see how their inclusion of a first leads to the assumption you're stating at the end, or how that somehow diminishes the notability of the list. I think at the moment I'm leaning heavily towards keep. Turnagra (talk) 20:59, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That still doesn't state she was the first MP to give birth. NLIST requires it to have been discussed as a group by a set of independent reliable sources and I do not see any group discussing it. I see no evidence of notability of a list of 'firsts'. Traumnovelle (talk) 21:31, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's great, tag it with Template:Citation needed. MPs are discussed as a group and first things are notable to mention - not to mention there are dozens of other "lists of firsts". I'm tapping out of this one now, so no need to continue responding to try and push your point further. Turnagra (talk) 23:21, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The article, with all of its references, makes it abundantly apparent that the subject was a flash-in-the-pan viral meme without any significance beyond how many people heard about it and talked about it for about a month or two. This wasn't a scientific study performed by people looking to answer a question, it was the results of a content farm hunting for clips to post online. Not to mention the article has a good number of glaring issues, from the completely unnecessary "illustration" made from image cutouts to the whole section on "Scientific Validity" focusing on a seemingly relevant statistic rather than any insight into the methodology (which, ironically, is found in a previous section, but still comes from purely journalistic commentary).

I added three sources to this article, as it had previously been unsourced for 19 years, but I don't think any are helpful for notability. The first merely says that the book was published and what it was about, the second is a book that cites the book and summarizes its arguments, and the third is a review from a British politician's personal website which would be useful however owing to its self published nature is probably not countable for notability. Nothing that actually discusses the book, not enough for WP:NBOOK.

The book has some coverage in Reference and Research Book News, and a thorough description of the book (which will not fit in the author's article) is helpful. [I struck my previous !vote which discussed possible merger and redirection targets.] James500 (talk) 01:24, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @James500 My interpretation of WP:TBK is that it is a rationale for relaxing the degree of sigcov required for academic publications, but not that it is an excuse to not have any - it's phrased in a vague way that imply a combination of several of these factors may help, and this doesn't hit too many of them. The R&R Book News publication is two sentences which just summarize the book - they don't really do reviews, it's usually just a sentence on "this book was published and here is what it's about", which can be helpful but which does not help notability IMO. AFAIK it is generally frowned upon to only have material in an article that is sourced from the topic itself, and that's really all we can get here. "very" highly cited was probably an overestimation on my part, but it does have some yes PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:40, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Your interpretation of TBK is mistaken. TBK says nothing about "significant coverage". The entire purpose of TBK is to disapply GNG. James500 (talk) 01:43, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Well TBK is vague and does not have any clear-cut guidelines like NBOOK does, only "possible findings" and a suggestion to use common sense. PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:45, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The possible findings for notability under WP:TBK, as listed without elaboration, are some combination of the following:

    Looking at GScholar, Kamali seems to have an exceptional level of citation. The average h-index for a law professor is less than 3, because it is a low citation field for academics. He is said to be "the most widely read living author on Islamic law in the English language". I am tempted to invoke BKCRIT #5. James500 (talk) 02:01, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, he's definitely notable. BKCRIT #5 only applies to people whose "life and body of written work would be a common subject of academic study.", which he is not, but I guess I can see your case here. Unfortunate that we only have an article on what appears to be the least notable of his many works. PARAKANYAA (talk) 02:07, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The book "Islamic Commercial Law: An Analysis of Futures and Options" has 333 GScholar citations. The preceding article "Islamic Commercial Law: An Analysis of Futures" has 75 citations. The preceding article "Islamic Commercial Law: An Analysis of Options" has 66 citations. That is a total of 474 citations. I would say that it actually is very highly cited.

I could not find anything about this dictionary, but it is admittedly in Norwegian and my source searching may have been impaired by that. There are a decent amount of non-sigcov hits for a dictionary which makes me suspect there is something I am unable to find, particularly due to the language thing.

No sources are mentioned about the crossed square cupola. It is merely an exhibition and the problem of arranging images had already been discussed in WT:WPM. Also, many related articles on those tables, I suppose, does not have any sources. That being said, I think they could possibly be deleted together in here, but sadly this is for one article only.

I cannot find any Reception on this game. I found this TheGamer source: https://www.thegamer.com/pokemate-pokemon-go-precursor/ but it was published before TheGamer's reliability date of August 2020, meaning it provides as much notability to the subject as an average Valnet source. Beyond that, Game Rant briefly discussed it, but it also does not add to notability and is part of this listicle. I checked Japanese sources, and found only passing mentions of the game's existence, and the sources in the article are either routine coverage of the game's announcement or not enough to establish notability. There is no Reception to really build this article with. A viable AtD for this subject is the "List of Pokemon video games" article, where the subject is mentioned, in order to preserve page history.

Very sparse article with a strange criteria (why only recent presidents?) and quite frankly, is only substantive for Trump (where it's a list of people who worked under him who now consider him to be incompetent).

Looking at a web search, the airport appears to be the overwhelmingly primary topic.

These were created for ease of reference for people using the IBM Db2 software. Per the "Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information" policy (see WP:NOT), an article listing the error codes for an arbitrary system is unnecessary. There is almost certainly no coverage of the error codes specifically: have done some minimal WP:BEFORE and nothing showed up obviously; and if there is it can be better put into the main article for the product.

Semi-advertorialized article about an organization, not properly sourced as passing inclusion criteria for organizations. As always, every organization on earth is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because it exists -- we need to see evidence that the organization would pass WP:GNG and WP:ORGDEPTH on third-party coverage and analysis about the organization. But this is referenced mainly to primary sources, such as its own self-published content about itself, the self-published websites of partner organizations and directory entries, that are not support for notability -- and meanwhile, the very few GNG-worthy media hits here just glancingly namecheck the organization's founder as a provider of a short soundbite in an article about something else, which is not about this organization and thus does not support its notability.
We're looking for reliable sources (not just any web page that exists) in which this organization is the subject of the coverage (not just a name that happens to get mentioned within coverage about something else), but none of the sources here footnotes here meet that standard at all.

Excessive use of WP:PRIMARY sources, as well as WP:GUNREL sources such as YouTube, Medium, and even blogs and forums, which count as self-published sources. Unable to find much of anything that would satisfy WP:GNG, most search results yield nothing of note for the organization itself; news articles are mostly about the dog breed, with some trivial mentions of the organization in a couple of articles, but nothing meeting WP:SIGCOV or even crossing the bar of WP:ROUTINE, like this article. Not opposed to redirecting back to the dog breed as opposed to deletion, where it already has several mentions within that page. SmittenGalaxy | talk! 00:25, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I did a cursory search for independent, secondary WP:RS and what's available is pretty sparse. Yes, the Irish Times article is brief and is about him but that is arguably a local source. An independent secondary source that has in-depth, substantial coverage in one or more articles would be more clearly convincing. I got more more notability about the architectural professor of the same name, but relatively little outside exclusively local sources for this musician, lacking the widespread secondary coverage required for notability.
