This individual does not seem to meet WP:NPROF, WP:NAUTHOR, or the GNG. Although he's published a few scholarly articles, they haven't received nearly enough citations to meet NPROF crit. 1; associate professors don't meet NPROF crit. 5; his book (a published version of his doctoral thesis) does not seem to have garnered the reviews needed for a pass of NAUTHOR; a WP:BEFORE search found no GNG-qualifying coverage. Since he only received his Ph.D. in 2019, it is likely too soon for notability. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 23:54, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Whitestone Academy

Nominated for PROD but was ineligible because it was previously deleted and recreated. Still no independent sources cited and I couldn't find any from a web search either, e.g. no significant mentions from the New York Times. Ruбlov (talk) 22:19, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete I couldn't find jack about this, just a couple of brief mentions in articles about other things that don't work for notability. So there's zero reason to keep the article. --Adamant1 (talk) 03:09, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete. I agree with Adamant1 that the only sources are not in-depth, with the exception of some reporting on a sad slashing incident involving an Asian student on her way to school in 2015, but the school had only a passing mention even there. I updated the article with 2019-2020 enrollment data, and it appears they lost about half their students that year, but the number of faculty remains the same, not a good prognosis for solvency. The Queens education section has only a sentence referring to most private schools as religious, so one possibility might be to list the existing private schools there, but at this point there doesn't even seem to be an appropriate place for a redirect. Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 04:18, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[]

It's briefly mentioned in the Whitestone, Queens article. So maybe that would work for a redirect. --Adamant1 (talk) 04:25, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Good catch, Adamant1 — however, the unreferenced and opaque sentence, "Whitestone Academy is Whitestone's only high school successor in interests to the former St Andrew Academy on the Sound, founded in 1954 by Hellen Koula Tassop" will need to be de-mystified and appropriately cited. Whitestone Academy's literature refers to its founding in 1981, and this clipping refers to "Helen Ottaviano the school's director and founder", but what is the connection to "St Andrew Academy on the Sound"? Maybe the school buildings? Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 08:29, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Update: I revised the Whitstone, Queens education section and added souring to the entire section. I don't think a redirect is necessary or even helpful, since the WP search engine finds it easily. Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 22:56, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Thanks for revising the other article. Your probably right about a redirect not being necessary in this case. --Adamant1 (talk) 03:07, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete Did a lot of digging, and while I can find statistics about the school, you can't even find a single review or comment. The average public high school gets more press than this.

To summarise the sources: half of them are blatant promotion (links to his Twitch, blog, IMDB, etc.), and there are a couple of interviews hosted by dodgy-looking websites. How is that SigCov? Ficaia (talk) 08:19, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Note: This debate has been added to the WikiProject Pornography list of deletions.CAPTAIN RAJU^(T) 19:19, 27 February 2022 (UTC) []

Delete: I've removed the IMDB, Twitter, YouTube, and Know Your Meme sources on the article, as they all are not appropriate for a BLP (see WP:IMDB, WP:RSPTWITTER, WP:RSPYT, and WP:KNOWYOURMEME respectively). The Kotaku source falls under the Gawker umbrella, which, again, is not a RS per WP:RSP. That leaves the Destructoid source, which is actually a blog with no byline; the TDN source, which looks like an offbrand Wiki; his own blog (multiple iterations); IAFD, which is an adult-version IMDB; and porn videos. The only source that's left and that I can see comes close to meeting any sort of sourcing criteria is the Sidetrack piece, which isn't really in-depth coverage - it only mentions the subject in three paragraphs along with another director. And yes, I did a BEFORE on this before !voting. In fact, I went about trying to rescue this article and wanted to initially !vote keep thinking there was stuff out there. Turns out, there isn't. --Kbabej (talk) 02:55, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep: It was agreed to be kept in the previous discussion. The sources indicated there are reliable. That said, it's still good enough to pass WP:GNG. ASTIG️🙃 _{(ICE-T • ICE CUBE)} 06:00, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep - the 2017 piece in the Hamilton Spectator that is already referenced in the article is significant. And here's another from 2020. Nfitz (talk) 16:16, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete. The coverage in The Spec is significant, but WP:GNG states Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability. We would need two more examples of significant coverage from different organizations to meet the requirement. BilledMammal (talk) 02:06, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete There is nothing to show he is unusually notable for a boxing promoter. Of course he's mentioned in articles on events he's promoting, but that's not significant independent coverage. As BilledMammal mentions, multiple mentions in the Hamilton Spectator, even if you believe they're significant coverage, only count as one source. Two previous deletions do not strengthen the case for notability. Papaursa (talk) 03:00, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Westsplaining

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

While this is a term that is in-use, there isn't sufficient coverage to justify an article separate from the overlapping concept of Orientalism (or alternatively, Eurocentrism). Unlike Mansplaining, a subject for which there is abundant and deep peer-reviewed coverage such as [1], [2], for Westsplaining all we have is mere mentions, trivial treatment in opinion pieces [3], more significant treatment, but still just an opinion piece, and an editorial published by a think tank. Looking at Google scholar, while there's a handful of hits for articles that use the term, ([4]), I don't see any that analyze and discuss it in depth. Until we have in-depth coverage in peer-reviewed or equally high quality sources, I think that creating an article is premature and that readers are better served by restoring the redirect to Orientalism#Critical_studies or another article that more thoroughly covers the topic of West-centric analytical lenses. Based on the current sources, we fall short of WP:GNG and the existing article runs afoul of WP:DICDEF. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 21:17, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

You linked a piece I had already assessed above. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 15:32, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]
You redefine the idea of this Wikipedia: 'in-depth coverage in peer-reviewed or equally high quality sources'. I bet that 80% of the pages are unsourced or quote unverified media news or outdated sources. The basis of this Wikipedia is Westplaining, which makes understanding the problem so difficult. This Wikipedia need EELM, Eastern European Lives Matter. Now they matter less. You understand many languages but only the Russian and German from the region, the languages of the slavemasters. Xx236 (talk) 08:10, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]
There's a real irony that you accuse me of westsplaining for wanting to send readers to a section that is mostly about the academic work of Edward Said while the source you've championed is an op-ed in an American newspaper. Aren't you the one who's privileging the west here? Find some coverage on this topic in Polish, Ukrainian, Arabic, etc. then we'll be talking. As for demanding high quality sources, I'm following the lead of Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (history): high quality source are extremely important for nebulous topics like this one, because otherwise we'd end up with a WP:DICDEF for every buzzword and that is not going to help our readers. The standards I have applied here are no higher than the ones I deploy for any other social science topic when doing WP:NPP. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 14:40, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Oh, and can I ask you to clarify Xx236, you seem to have ignored that I speak Yiddish just as well as German and better than Russian. Do you consider that to be a language of the slavemasters? _signed,Rosguill ^talk 15:16, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep Victor Grigas (talk) 01:20, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete possibly WP:TOOSOON. Reading through the articles found by NOM, what particularly strikes me is that of the ones that give a definition, their definitions differ considerably. The BI article says: "Balkanism gives birth to the worst type of tourist – the kind who after reading one book and spending a few days in the region “westsplains” history and politics to the locals." This is analogous to "mansplaining" - someone who knows little about a topic explaining it to someone who knows much more. The Manila Standard article isn't about "'splaining" but about "jacking" and it uses the term "Westjacking": “Westjacking,” he says, “is to take Western cultural norms, lenses, and other points of view and fit in the nuances in that [Western] frame of mind." That isn't what the 'splaining meme is about. The New Republic article is about imposing your historical and political analysis using on other countries: "Eastern European online circles have started using a new term to describe this phenomenon of people from the Anglosphere loudly foisting their analytical schema and political prescriptions onto the region: westsplaining." Each of these is significantly different in meaning. Perhaps if the meaning settles down and is used in a somewhat consistent way it will be time for an article. I should also note that although I'm so-so on having an article about Mansplaining, it had a specific origin in an article written by Solnit (although the term wasn't coined there) and therefore there is an "origin" that can be used to define the term consistently.

Symbols and proto-writing of the Cucuteni–Trypillia culture

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article title does not match its content, being entirely about symbols of the Vinča culture. It is largely unreferenced, completely unstructured, and appears to be mostly created by copy-pasting pieces from articles relating to the Vinča symbols so there's not much, if anything, worth merging. Redirecting the page to Vinča symbols wouldn't be appropriate because the Vinča culture and Cucuteni–Trypillia culture are not synonymous. The article appears to have been created out of confusion in conflating the topics, and it's been neglected since then; it's best to simply delete it. Scyrme (talk) 20:57, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Archaeology-related deletion discussions. Shellwood (talk) 21:10, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

The original version is more structured and sheds some light on why it was created. But it was then (rightly) gutted of original research which led to this state. Currently the only think linking the content to the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture is one sentence near the end of the article: Thus it appears that the Vinča or Vinča-Tordos symbols are not restricted to just the region around Belgrade, which is where the Vinča culture existed, but that they spread across most of southeastern Europe, and was used throughout the geographical region of the Cucuteni-Trypillia culture. But this is unreferenced and, as far as I know, not true. In a paper from this year Johannes Müller says as much explicitly:

Here, so-called sign systems—composed of signs in areas free of ceramic decoration—play a role. Calculations of the relative proportion of signs in such decorative open spaces initially showed an increase, but then a decrease again in the last settlement phase. A similar tendency towards an increase in the number of “signs” in the overall region [of the Trypillia group] was also noted by Taras Tkachuk. Such special signs have sometimes been used as an argument for script development in Tripolye. But unlike, e.g., potter marks or rows of recurring signs in Vinca contexts of Southeastern Europe, they are simply secondary decorative elements and have nothing to do with “writing” or “pre-writing”.

She appears to otherwise remain and likely to remain a low-profile individual, based on attempts to find sources about her since this event; and 3. the event does not appear to have been significant due to the limited burst of coverage about it, and Sadler's role does not appear to be substantial or well-documented, based on the limited and repetitive reporting on the event.

Larkin's Landing, California

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Another one of those Durham-only California geostubs apparently missed during the 2020/2021 cleanup. I suspect the coordinates in the article may be wrong - they're sending me to a place that is marked on a swamp in 1890s maps and is now a salt evaporation pond. Searching on newspapers.com brings up a few references to Mr. Larkin (whose wife was allegedly trying to kill him) living at Larkin's Landing, but nothing significant. This I can only get the snippet view of, but it likewise does not appear to be significant coverage. Searching is difficult because Larkinsville, Alabama was formerly known as Larkin's Landing and was quite significant in the 1800s, and Larkin, California, is also a place, but this one I can find really nothing about - it existed, but doesn't seem to have been overly significant and has become mostly lost to history.

Confirm the coordinates are off. By a couple of thousand feet. Currently, the slough ends where it reaches Mowry Avenue at 37.5096, -122.0149. This more likely location for the landing is 1800' to the NE of Larkin's Landing's coordinates.Paleorthid (talk) 22:28, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]
- Update: My salt-pond destination (37.506111, -122.018889) was a one-off error, I could not reproduce. 37.496653, -122.005833 is east shore of Mowry Slough. Makes sense for Larkin's Landing. Paleorthid (talk) 04:22, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]
- "no telling where it was exactly" Uncle G (talk) 23:53, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

I couldn't get scope for expansion either.
Mosier's 1986 Alameida County Place Names is a paraphrase of the article at hand, and says nothing more.

Merritt's 1928 History of Alameda County, California gives this a 1 sentence mention. ("Boats docked at Mayhew Landing and later Jarvis Landing and then Larkin's Landing were established.")

The relevant Arcadia Publishing book appears to be ISBN 9780738530055 about Irvington, which has nothing. Checking the Arcadia book about Centreville, ISBN 9780738581774, just in case turns up nothing there either. The same for the Arcadia book about Newark, ISBN 9781467133364.

The Arcadia book about Warm Springs, ISBN 9780738596631 has Dixon Landing, California and of course Warm Springs Landing but not this one. The Arcadia book about Milpitas, ISBN 9780738529103 is too far away to be relevant to this article, but indicates that Dixon Landing, California is in the history books.

Sandoval's 1985 The History of Washington Township merely lists this in a laundry list of landings ("In addition, there were at one time or another, Horner's Landing, Beard's Landing, Peacock's Landing, Dixon Landing, Larkin's Landing and Barron's Landing.")
Even less turned up about Stephen Larkin, which could have been a potential refactoring target.

Delete. I couldn't find any more information to expand the article. Not a notable subject. The system of landings along the Alameda County bay coast, as a subject, probably could support an article, their history is interesting. There are articles on Alameda County bay coast landings (Eden Landing, Jarvis Landing (formerly Mayhew Landing), Roberts Landing), including the adjacent Mowry Landing location. Pretty good coverage.

Stats page masquerading as a biography on a tennis player that does not seem to pass WP:NTENNIS or WP:GNG - similar case to Evangelina Olivarez. For the former, Fed Cup is no longer a valid claim to automatic notability and so GNG needs to be met. The article cites this CV but it is unacceptable as a source as it is not independent from Misiurova. The other sources are all stats pages so don't confer notability. No hits in Google News, only stats pages and Wikipedia mirrors in a Lithuanian source search and ProQuest only has passing mentions in results summaries, no actual detailed coverage of Misiurova.

The anybio criterion noted states, "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor", but are we suggesting that the Croix de Guerre 1939–1945, as noted in the article, is well known or significant? The article for this suggests that it was "to honour people who fought with the Allies against the Axis forces at any time during World War II", which could be fairly run-of-the-mill and not significant as such? I may be wrong, and it would help if someone who knows more about it to clarify if that is a significant honour which is enough to retain. Bungle ^{(talk • contribs)} 07:31, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[]

The orders of merit (e.g. Legion d'honneur) probably meet the criteria but even so, we still require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject in order to write an article that complies with policy (WHYN). wjemather^{please leave a message...} 10:07, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Weak delete. There is a very little notability here but I do feel that the bar has to be set fairly high before we have a BLP article that can reasonably be interpreted as saying "This is a completely awful person", even if that was not the author's intent and if it is couched in sympathetic euphemistic language. I am wondering whether one or more her organisations might be more genuinely notable than she is as an individual. (I regret to have to say that I have at least heard of "Partners for Ethical Care".) If so, having an article about that/those would avoid the problem with having a negative BLP. If the article is kept then the weasel words have to go. We can't have the euphemistic language of "concerns" and "rights" where very conspicuously nobody says what those "concerns" and "rights" actually are. Either we talk about her plainly or we don't talk about her at all. If she is notable then it will be easy enough to turn up RS coverage and criticism of her. Oddly enough, there is little to none in the article, which also speaks against notability. Also against her notability is the fact that the article is very close to being an orphan. So what do the Google links say? It's hard to tell whether there is additional notability here as the initial hits are mostly just hyperbolic praise from the sort of sources who will loudly embrace anybody who is against trans people. Is there more actual notability for her as an author under all that? I didn't see any but I also didn't feel inclined dig deep enough to say "no" for sure, hence the "weak delete". --DanielRigal (talk) 15:09, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete: co-signing the above. She's appearing in the articles that aren't about her recent book because she's the spokesperson for an org, not because she herself is notable. In order to have a BLP on someone who is notable for opposing "the gender cult", we'd need sources that talk about her in that role, but that aren't interviews (right? someone correct me if not), and it doesn't look like we have that in a manner other than the aforementioned hyperbolic praise from the sort of sources who will loudly embrace anybody who is against trans people. -- asilvering (talk) 05:20, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

But I was able to find articles from Bloomberg (1 & 2) and the Wall Street Journal, as well as coverage from the South Bend Tribune, Sky Sports, and the Daily Star (UK). Best, GPL93 (talk) 19:05, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Lets look at them in turn.

1 This is about fund which is named after him.

2 That is a routine annoucement of the man leaving his job. How is that notable and it is a press-release.

the Wall Street Journal

When you search for General Atlantic, Tripp Smith to Launch Roughly $5 Billion Distressed-Investing Fund about two dozen entries come indicating its comes from a press-release with the same wording in each one. It is all affiliate links.

South Bend Tribune

PR.

Sky Sports That is a press-release.

Daily Star (UK) The daily star is non-RS. Why would you even mention it?

scope_creep^Talk 19:39, 23 February 2022 (UTC)[]

I'd like to think that a newspaper, tabloid or not, with 200k circulation may be worth mentioning. In relation to specifically the West Ham stuff there is also this from the Evening Standard as well. Also, the WSJ is not a press release with the exact same wording some of these stories specifically say "the Wall Street Journal reported (ex)" and it was written by one of their journalists (profile here). Also how do you know if Sky Sports is a press release? It looks like a standard wire service writeup to me and I don't see any disclosure. As for Bloomberg, the fund was named "Atlantic Park", so I don't think that the article just says that there is a fund named after him and the article about him leaving was written by a senior reporter at that outlet and in what way does it being about the subject leaving his position make any less notability-lending?

Weak keep. After making full use of the cited sources and unraveling the article into a coherent account of his career, then searching for additional sources to fill out the biography and finding only a page at his school (the major part of which is audio, so I cannot hear it) and no extended articles about him in the financial press, I came here to say that in my estimation he just clears the notability threshhold (there is coverage of multiple points in his career: co-founding and continuing as a top-level executive at GSO as it grew; second of the 3 founders to leave; foundation of Iron Park and its participating in a major joint venture; buying into West Ham and rumors about take-over plans, and I was able to pick and choose among sources to cite at many points, but one of his co-founders has more press) but that there is almost no biographical information available: I had a rough date of birth and a high school, that was it. But then I saw the South Bend Tribune reference listed above. With that, I believe the article meets the bare minimum requirements: multiple reliable sources reporting on his career over several years, and just enough info about the person to make a useful biography. (It would be lovely if some subscription holder would check places like Fortune and the WSJ for a full profile that Google doesn't show to hoi polloi.) Yngvadottir (talk) 03:06, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep. I think User:Yngvadottir's edits have improved the page enough that it's apparent (to me) the subject meets WP:NB. I will also note that the South Bend Tribune ref is far from PR; that's a respected newspaper. If this were a sponsored content puff piece, it would be labeled as such; per the paper's branded content terms, "Media Company's legally approved label for custom content work is "Story From" which will be included in articles listicles, video, infographics, promotional units, and social media." This is not a sponcon piece. The paper's source for this story also seems to be the University itself, not a PR agency. It's quite common for college town papers to report on big donations like this (Notre Dame is right next to South Bend). Lkb335 (talk) 16:03, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Is the SBT article heavily based on a press release by the University? Yes, it is, it's not a very good article. Does that disqualify it as a source? I would say no. Lkb335 (talk) 16:06, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Comment It is amazing how many people are willing to rationalise something in order to achieve an objective. Lets examine the new references, the loosest definition I've seen in a long while.

Leaving the firm. Independent:Yes Reliable:Yes Significant coverage:No It is routine coverage of him leaving his business. That is routine coverage.
West Ham bought Independent:No Reliable:No Significant coverage:No A search of the term finds that many newspapers use the same exact report indicating it is sourced to a press-release.
Portrait on his site Independent:No Reliable:No Significant coverage:No Puff page.
Notre Dame 15 million gift Independent:Yes Reliable:No Significant coverage:No This is routine coverage. The statement has been made above that because it is independent even though it has been taken a press-release that it is reliable is absurd. The true aspect to prove it is routine, is that if the gift wasn't made the report wouldn't have been made. Any gift of that size in any country would have been reported on. It is not reliable coverage.
Merrill Lynch Takes Hedge Fund Stake Independent:No Reliable:No Significant coverage:No It states its from a press-release.
Founder of Blackstone credit unit to stand down Independent:Yes Reliable:No Significant coverage:No Another press-release and not about Smith. Passing mention
General Atlantic, Tripp Smith to Launch Roughly $5 Billion Distressed-Investing Fund Independent:Yes Reliable:Yes Significant coverage:No Passing mention

The whole consists of routine coverage, press-releases and passing mention. None of it is significant meaning WP:SECONDARY. There isn't single profile on the person. It all incidental news. scope_creep^Talk 09:41, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[]

This is still a wild misrepresentation of referencing. Writing off references about him leaving his firm as if that is something that happens for everyone and calling an article where his name is literally in the title with multiple mentions as "passing mention" is absurd. Also, the same wording rationale is not even close. I guess staff write-ups and legitimate news wire services such as the Associated Press and Reuters (which are very commonly used in sports coverage) simply do not exist. His buying a stake in the club was clearly a newsworthy event. Call it all incidental news not leading to notability when he is the reason for multiple incidents across multiple years that are covered by reliable sources. Also, what is my or Yngvadottir's, Lkb335's "objective" here? What nefarious reasons are there for keeping an objective article where reliable sourcing has been presented? GPL93 (talk) 13:27, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Does anyone here have access to the full Wall Street Journal article? Even in the blurb available without signing in, it mentions Smith in the headline and twice in the article body and so "Passing mention" isn't an accurate summary of the source. NemesisAT (talk) 14:27, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[]

I have access through PROQUEST. I agree that it's significant coverage and is non-trivial. Additionally, there are other WSJ articles in which he is in the headline and with nontrivial coverage. See Miriam Gottfried (April 15, 2020). "Fund to Help Companies Facing Distress From the Pandemic; General Atlantic is forming a joint venture with Tripp Smith". The Wall Street Journal. p.

Comment The reference above about General Atlantic is forming a joint venture with Tripp Smith comes from a press-release. The whole thing is all driven from press-release and PR. scope_creep^Talk 14:55, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

It's a bylined authored article in a major newspaper. Articles with named bylined journalists (in this case journalist Miriam Gottfried) are not "press releases" no matter how much you want to misconstrue them as such. This was not a pre-packaged story but one written by a WSJ staff journalist. 4meter4 (talk) 01:47, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

I agree with 4meter4 the press release argument has now been debunked by multiple editors at this point. It would appear that the nominator also believes that this article was created by a UPE, which I'm not seeing at all given they edit mostly on football-related topics and has given the incredibly plausible explanation that they created the article because Smith became an owner of West Ham United and likely reverted the redirect later on after Smith's alleged attempt to take the club over.

Keep Referencing has been improved and article expanded, notability now established. NemesisAT (talk) 09:35, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Comment I spoke to Miriam directly. It doesn't come from a press-release apparently. So that confirms it. But that is only one secondary reference. Where is the rest of them, that satisfies WP:THREE. The rest of the coverage is routine and PR. scope_creep^Talk 13:37, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

There is nothing routine about someone becoming an owner of an EPL club (The Sky Sports staff report & the Financial Times report by journalists with bylines), attempting to take control of said club, or making a $15 million donation (SBT), that's just not stuff "local man" does. Generally speaking when people, even high-ranking executives, leave their position a news outlet like Bloomberg does not have senior reporters write about it or the Financial News have an editor (which was the title the FN article author, Fareed Sahloul, had at the time according to LinkedIn) report on it. Best, GPL93 (talk) 14:30, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

That is the most spurious argument and a complete lie. All billionares are followed by newspapers and any billionaire who runs a hedge fund are followed religiously particularly by the financial newspapers, as in this case. Most of the stuff that is reported is routine coverage that every billionare gets. So far on this there is.

Secondary source written by Miriam on a partner deal.
A source that is the $15million contribution. That is routine coverage.
Routine coverage about leaving the job.

That is your argument. None of that constitutes the WP:THREE requirement for three secondary sources which is the usual standard at Afd, except the first one. Secondly don't speak about UPE. You have no experience of it and it makes like a fool when you say things like that. Lastly if it is the case of No Consensus then in 6 months time I will be nominating it again, until I see at least three secondary sources. scope_creep^Talk 14:54, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

I do have experience dealing with UPEs and there are editors/admins that can attest to that. I am an editor with several years of history and in good standing so why would you make a personal attack like that? Your general lack of civility and assumption of good faith towards other editors has been unacceptable when it comes to this subject and you've now essentially admitted that you cannot remain impartial. GPL93 (talk) 15:19, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Let's calm things down a bit. Multiple editors are using language that is not necessarily appropriate for what should be a fairly routine discussion on an article--impugning someone's motive or character for suggesting deletion or keep is not acceptable in this context. Maybe it would be best if everyone just stepped away from the discussion for a day or two.

Best, Lkb335 (talk) 15:27, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

@Lkb335 I agree. At this point, I think it's best to just drop things for now as nothing new is being added to this AfD by either of us and neither of us are going to change our interpretations of the referencing.

Delete - Multiple reasons:
The article has no secondary sources to establish notability.

The 1 primary source was apparently self-published. (Over a century ago.)

The text is largely incomprehensible nonsense; if it was translated, it was translated badly. (eg. "The general principle is to simplify the complete chain leading from work to its reproduction on another support, as the carpet or the tissue." - ???) Meaningless gibberish isn't interesting to anyone.

The article wasn't finished by its author who left it as a work-in-progress. (Note the "to be done" remarks left in the article.) The article has been neglected for years and the author doesn't appear to be active; it's unlikely to ever be completed.

The article seems to be an orphan, suggesting the topic isn't relevant to any other article.

You should both read Project:Wikipedia is not a dictionary properly. This is not a dictionary article about a word. It has zero etymology, pronunciation, and other dictionary stuff. It's a stub encyclopaedia article about an element of mediaeval musical notation, also called the "divisio syllabarum" (per Edwin Frederick Flindell, at any rate). The question is whether it is capable of expansion. A quick look around indicates that it is, either standalone or refactored into an article with larger scope to include the divisio syllabarum, the divisio modi, and the suspiratio, perhaps as a sub-topic of mensural notation (which mentions none of these) or even straightforwardly in that article.
All of this is achievable with non-administrator tools.
It's worth noting, by the way, that not everyone accepts Friedrich Ludwig's nomenclature. Stephen Parkinson considered it "cumbersome" and suggested "lineola".

Werewolves in popular culture

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Almost entirely unsourced and rampant listcruft that fails WP:LISTN. The page werewolf fiction has the prose aspects of werewolves in popular culture, so this page is entirely unnecessary and was merely a misguided attempt to split off the crufty aspects of said page. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 09:03, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep We have a list of werewolves however it doesn't include all famous/notable works that had werewolves in them. Just prune this list of any entry without a link to its own article providing that either the werewolf or the work it was mentioned in was notable by Wikipedia standards. Dream Focus 09:44, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Yes, it was exactly the usual article formation process, per Special:Diff/586038821 and Special:Diff/586038864, and there's very little in 9 years that wasn't in the original article per Special:Diff/586049643/1074082386, and no analysis being added to the pile of raw mentions. However, when my first thought was "Where on Earth were the werewolves in Prince Caspian?" and I went to find out, I found this:
- McMahon-Coleman, Kimberley; Weaver, Roslyn (2014). Werewolves and Other Shapeshifters in Popular Culture: A Thematic Analysis of Recent Depictions. McFarland. ISBN 9780786492503.
And then this:
- Mann, Craig Ian (2020). Phases of the Moon: A Cultural History of the Werewolf Film. Edinburgh University Press. ISBN 9781474441148.
So on the one hand, this is another pile-on grab-bag of mentions with zero analysis or knowledge to impart, we wouldn't lose anything worthwhile by deleting it because it was mostly in the edit history of the original article, and what little has been added since isn't properly sourced; and on the other hand clearly the werewolf fiction article without at least some of what can be found in the good quality literature on this subject, which it currently lacks comparing the article to the books (contrast what the books say about Prince Caspian just for starters) is fairly bad too.

Merge with List of werewolves and trim of unreferenced, non-notable entries in the process. The sources found above as well as the the article Werewolf fiction show that this topic does not fail WP:LISTN. I do agree, however, on the point that "everything in the article, besides the most absolutely ancient works, pertains to fiction", so I don't see a reason to have two separate lists for werewolves outside of and within popular culture. I think those should be combined. Such a list does have a function, as it can list notable or referenced werewolf characters or works about such characters beyond what's in Werewolf fiction. Daranios (talk) 20:39, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep but prune. Remove all entries without a bluelink. Eventually, remove all entries without a secondary reference that shows the inclusion of a depiction of werewolves was notable, and not the subplot to chapter 5 of a forgotten hack-and-slash fantasy novel from 1983. That said, the idea is valid enough, although ideally there would be a brief summary of what was "interesting" about the depiction of werewolves. SnowFire (talk) 19:21, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[]
- Hello SnowFire, I am struggling to see how this is separate to Werewolf fiction. Which of the entries are not in fictional works? Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 21:30, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep but prune. This is a list that would need its own article separate from the main werewolf fiction article, even if we were to limit this to just the works where there is substantial coverage and a blue link. That said, this list does need to be pruned down. I'd say to limit any mentions to those where there's coverage of some sort. I do think it'd be worthwhile to add entries where the work is notable enough for its own article but the werewolves may not be mentioned in secondary coverage, as long as the work explicitly identifies them as werewolves. This would still limit the amount of entries that can be added, as there are a lot of works where the creator never actually identifies werewolf-esque creatures as werewolves - sometimes as a very deliberate act. I'm fine with limiting them to secondary sources, though. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 19:52, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[]
- One small note: I'm going through and trying to help prune. I'm adding sourcing for those entries which don't have an article but seem like they should be notable. I'd say leave the entries that have enough sourcing to establish notability per NBOOK or the other respective guideline. That's the only exception I'd say for that rule, although offhand I'd say that the ones that do have enough notability would probably be fairly slim. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 20:02, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Changing vote to merge or delete as long as it's OK to recreate this in a more reasonable format than what we currently have. I didn't fully appreciate the comments about how indiscriminate this list truly is until I started performing cleanup. This list is including anything that even whispers the name werewolf and as such, is pretty unwieldy. There's no context here either, so it's not much better than a defacto category page. This should definitely be merged with the article on werewolves in fiction and turned into a general page. I'd prefer the general title of pop culture, but fiction might still be doable since it would certainly limit the amount of content that could be added. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 16:21, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[]

- If you are going to attempt this task, bearing in mind the comments about the length and uselessness of the lists, note that the thematic breakdown in McMahon-Coleman & Weaver 2014 harvnb error: no target: CITEREFMcMahon-ColemanWeaver2014 (help) is not category of fiction but:
  - adolescence and lycanthropy as puberty
  - subversion of gender stereotypes
  - sexual attraction
  - lycanthropy as race
  - disability and difference
  - addictive behaviour
  - spirituality
- Mann 2020 actually has a breakdown that is similar in parts, although Mann is addressing this as folkloric cycles. Mann's chapter 4, "Hounds of Love", deals with sexual attraction, for example. Uncle G (talk) 09:32, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[]

I'll keep that in mind, but right now I'm just removing the ones that are non-notable. Cleanup will have to be in stages, honestly. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 13:39, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Something else to keep in mind is that Uncle G is definitely right in that there are a lot of different ways to address this topic. It's also good to keep in mind that this also isn't limited to fiction as a rule. Werewolves are kind of pervasive in pop culture and do show up in ways outside of fiction - both real and not real. For example, medical conditions and commercials. There's cultural perspectives to consider - not mythology but like werewolves in modern culture. I can't remember the exact song, but an example would be this Japanese song that warned women that "men are wolves". That doesn't really fit into the realm of fiction. I do think that the page needs a big overhaul, but at some point there will be a list that would likely need to be somewhere. The ideal would be for it to turn into a page similar to Titanic in popular culture. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 20:56, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete per WP:TNT, with no prejudice to this being recreated in the proper prose format. In the past year+, me and User:TompaDompa have rewritten a number of articles, previously in the list format, into prose, but dozens remain in this sorry, WP:OR, list state, which sadly has next to zero redeeming quality. Most of the entries there are arbitrary and unreferenced, and let's face it, this is a list that likely fails WP:NLIST (list of works about werewolves). I refer to cases of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Earth in science fiction (2nd nomination), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Space stations and habitats in fiction or Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Supernovae in fiction, which were "kept" after a complete rewrite, or Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of vampire traits in folklore and fiction (2nd nomination) which was deleted as it was not rewritten from the tv-tropish collection of trivia. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:24, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[]

As long as this closes with the consensus that it can come back once it's in proper format, I'm good with that. The more I clean, the more frustrated I'm getting with how this article is laid out and the inclusion threshold. It's honestly not that far off from that XKCD joke about wood in popular culture. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 16:18, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[]
Lol. I'll have to remember that joke... Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 21:24, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[]

I'm totally in the merge camp for this with werewolf fiction. This needs to be judiciously pruned down and I'd also recommend that we limit list inclusion to only those works that fit the following guidelines:

The work is notable enough to merit an article. If no article exists then there should be copious amounts of coverage to establish that the work would warrant its own article. An author or creator having an article wouldn't be enough. That would cut the list down to a third of what it is now.
The werewolf is a prominent character of aspect in the work.
There must be sourcing that identifies the character/aspect as a werewolf or lycanthropy. Shape-shifting should not be included as this is far too nebulous. This means that even if the shapeshifter can transform into a werewolf, it wouldn't fit under this list unless there's a lot of coverage discussing this in werewolf territory.

This doesn't mean that the work can't be mentioned in the prose, but the general gist would be that they'd have to be notable enough for an article to justify inclusion in the list. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 18:28, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[]

As someone who rewrote an AfD'd list to prose (United Nations in popular culture), let me state for the record that prose is neither mandatory nor encouraged by any policy or guideline on this matter. It is simply your personal preference. With that being said, a companion prose article can be written in parallel to this list (which has mainly navigational purposes). Your WP:OR concerns (in reality WP:V concerns) are WP:SURMOUNTABLE, since WP:PRIMARY#3 allows the use of primary sources for straightforward assertions, such as if a werewolf are present in a given work. Piotrus, could you flag within the article which elements need citations with Template:Citation needed or Template:OR? Pilaz (talk) 13:26, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[]
WP:INDISCRIMINATE. It doesn't matter that we can source some stuff to primary sources, if it is not notable. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 21:26, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[]
Can you explain what exactly is indiscriminate? Because your OR concerns seems to notability concerns (WP:LISTN that you mentioned above). What this article needs is a "further reading" section that complies with LISTN's "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." Let me see if I can WP:FIXIT today with academic sources and the ones proposed above. Pilaz (talk) 10:45, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Prose is in fact encouraged. MOS:POPCULT, prose is usually preferable to a list format, regardless of where the material appears. Such prose might give a logically presented overview (chronological and/or by medium) of how the subject has been documented, featured, and portrayed in different media and genres, for various purposes and audiences. PRIMARY doesn't allow articles consisting entirely of primary sources, which is what lists of this sort do. Avilich (talk) 21:32, 4 March 2022 (UTC)[]

It's pretty clear from this discussion (which is at WP:CR) that MOS:POPCULT only applies to trivia sections and not to articles such as this one, as every person who has written MOS:POPCULT has declared. Pilaz (talk) 10:36, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[]

I disagree. The only thing people agree is that a list, per definition and common sense, should be in bullet or table format. But unless you want to move this to a list and then have this discussed with WP:NLIST, what we have here is a prose topic of likely notability, but written in a WP:TNTable bullet point format. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:44, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[]

I don't think I understand your last comment (or it's not about MOS:POPCULT). Maybe you meant to reply to my other nested comment above? Pilaz (talk) 14:44, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Um, "regardless of where the material appears". Avilich (talk) 00:27, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

@Avilich: I believe "regardless of where" refers to the two cases mentioned in MOS:POPCULT, of either "in its own section" or "with other prose". (As MOS:POPCULT in general does not talk about stand-alone list for navigation purposes, as Pilaz has already stated.) Daranios (talk) 10:04, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

That's in another paragraph, from which the quoted excerpt doesn't pick up. Items can be listed either sections or separate articles, where you put them is a purely technical and irrelevant detail that has no bearing on their function and in the spirit of the guideline that covers them. Avilich (talk) 14:05, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

@Avilich: I disagree with that reading. It's in the same section, preceding paragraph, so I still think that that refers to that. Your interpretation would mean that "In popular culture" and "Cultural references" should never be presented in list format, and I can hardly believe that's the intention. Also, the difference can be more than technical, if for a stand-alone list the function is navigation, and within an article it's elucidation of the topic's impact. Daranios (talk) 15:58, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

should never be presented in list format. Not something I ever said, I believe. You're of course right about functions, but this one in particular doesn't serve any function other than listing every single fictional topic in which werewolves are mentioned, which runs afoul of the spirit of POPCULT, regardless of what you think of its applicability. The deletion of "UN in popular culture" and its recreation as prose, along with the work of TompaDompa and Piotrus, are all results of POPCULT being applied broadly, and their successful nature imo confirm that the section vs. article distinction has no use or justification. Avilich (talk) 13:56, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

@Avilich: "doesn't serve any function other than listing every single fictional topic in which werewolves are mentioned": That there is a problem with the threshold of inclusion in the current form of the list has been variously acknowledged, including by me. However I do believe that that is a problem that can be solved by editing, maybe along the lines already outlined by ReaderofthePack. And then, in an improved form, I believe such a list can serve a navigation function of where the topic of werewolves notably appears to the interested reader, which goes beyond what's in Werewolf fiction. Daranios (talk) 18:05, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep but make it a table and not "bulleted list" format. LockzZ (talk) 22:48, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Merge into List of werewolves, and prune only disputed content, to avoid indiscriminate deletion of valuable information which can be easily verified upon request. Strong opposition to deletion. I have read all of the discussion above, the article, looked for additional academic references from established publishers, created a bibliography section, and I am aware of the existence of the articles werewolf fiction and List of werewolves. There are three major issues that need addressing (and that have been raised in this discussion): #1 whether Werewolves in popular culture is a WP:CFORK of werewolf fiction and/or list of werewolves; #2 whether this information should be presented in list form; #3 and whether the list is WP:INDISCRIMINATE, violates WP:NLIST, and/or WP:OR/WP:V.

Is Werewolves in popular culture a CFORK of...
1. ... werewolf fiction? No. Werewolf fiction needs the list article to point to the exhaustive list of works about werewolves, since it cannot realistically discuss every work due to size constraints and the fact that many aren't covered in secondary sources. Similarly, the list article needs the prose article to discuss them (if it discussed them, it would no longer be a list). As long as the list article doesn't do the job of the prose article (doesn't engage in commentary, analysis, etc), then they are mutually beneficial to one other, to our readers, and to our editors. If you delete one, you should expect spillover from the deleted one to the kept one.
2. ... list of werewolves? Yes. They are both lists that serve the same purpose. Fundamentally, both cover fictional representations of werewolves in popular media. A merge is required.
Should this information be presented in list form? Yes. A list serves useful navigational purposes, allows itself to be exhaustive if it complies with WP:LISTN and is not WP:INDISCRIMINATE, and it gives breathing space to werewolves in fiction to do a proper prose analysis without being overly inclusive. Delete one or the other, and expect the worst of both worlds into one place. We have ICBMs and list of ICBMs (even though some items don't have their own articles), but is it a sufficient reason to delete or prune the latter list?
Is this list compliant with...
1. ...WP:INDISCRIMINATE? Yes. At the time of my writing, this argument has not been substantiated to merit a discussion. Will amend if it evolves.
2. ...WP:NLIST? For the most part. Looking at the bibliography section I added, as well as the "further reading" section of werewolves in popular culture, we can satisfy its requirements (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.) for literature^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]; film^[5]^[6]; television^[6]^[7]; music^[8]; video games^[9]; anime and manga^[10]; as well as folktales (not in the list)^[11]. Categories that miss in-depth coverage: (non-manga) comics, (non-anime) cartoons. There are some excerpts here and there about comics (There was a long footnote about werewolves in Marvel comics, but I'm excluding it since it's only a footnote). I wouldn't oppose pruning the comics and cartoons list if they aren't covered by any work on werewolves.
3. ...WP:OR/WP:V? Yes. OR concerns are unsubstiated, and WP:V concerns can be sourced to the secondary sources mentioned above, and failing that to their own primary sources in virtue of WP:PRIMARY#3, which expressly allows to use primary sources to make non-controversial, factual and verifiable assertions regarding the presence of werewolves in a particular work.

Verdict: the undisputed content of the article should be kept and merged into list of werewolves to address the WP:CFORK concerns. A merge discussion should be in-depth regarding what should be moved. Special thanks to Uncle G for linking some of the literature above. Pilaz (talk) 14:24, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Merge selectively into List of werewolves (or just delete). There is surely no need for Werewolf fiction, List of werewolves, and Werewolves in popular culture. Pilaz makes a compelling case that List of werewolves could be improved with a selective merge of some of this material, which would therefore be worthwhile. If no one is interested in carrying out that work, I don't think much would be lost in a straight delete. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 04:11, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Merge to werewolf fiction as a WP:CONTENTFORK that fails WP:LISTN, per nom. There are three spinouts from only one notable topic, and deletion would be valid. But a fair compromise is to cover it in prose at the main article. Shooterwalker (talk) 22:07, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete or redirect Articles like these almost invariably fail WP:IINFO and MOS:TRIVIA. The topic of "fictional works that mention werewolves" also probably doesn't qualify as a notable grouping under NLIST, though "werewolves in fiction", which is a different thing, probably meets GNG from the sources presented above. It's hard to see the purpose of a merge or even a redirect here, since the article has basically no prose content that can be recycled, and the sources above imply that someone can remove the redirect and start over again. The best course of action here is probably to delete and rewrite as prose, as was done with "Far future in fiction" and "UN in popular culture" recently. Avilich (talk) 02:41, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Redirect to Peepal Baba as an alternative to deletion. This organization doesn't seem to pass WP:NORG on its own: there is minimal coverage, and most of it consists of passing mentions in articles about Baba or something else. I think a redirect would be a reasonable solution, particularly since Baba's article already mentions the organization and since redirects are cheap.

This article was never approved by anyone, and I don't think this article would meet any criteria. The focus of this article is heavily on the plastic surgery operations that they underwent to resemble Jimin of BTS. Though they released music they still do not meet WP:MUSIC. There's nothing significant about the subject. Their following count across social media accounts is huge but if that were to carry any weight then with that anyone with a decent following on social media could have their own article, but that is clearly not realistic. What really is notable about them other than the strange desire to look like another person? Though this has been discussed before it really needs to be reconsidered.

Keep I don't understand your point "never approved by anyone" editors can create articles without anyone's approval. Anyway, there are reliable secondary sources about them and a quick google news search brought up loads of articles about (and I'm sorry to write this) their planned penis reduction surgery. They do meet the general notability criteria. It has taken a lot of effort to not add a joke here, I probably deserve a barnstar for that. CT55555 (talk) 08:29, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Comment It seems like this has all been debated before >>> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Oli_London CT55555 (talk) 08:33, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Comment User:Btspurplegalaxy You've edited the reason for AfD, so now I'll reply to the new parts: the strangeness of their actions don't detract from their notability. Your username being the same as the name of band that this person is trying to look like does suggest you might care about why they are notable, but I'd urge you to consider not a judgement about why they are notable, just if they are notable. Also, please note their preferred pronouns. It is "they" not "him" WP:GNLPOLICY CT55555 (talk) 20:19, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]
I've corrected them but I started this discussion again as it doesn't seem the last one resulted in just their notability being fully assessed. I do hope other editors look more at the notability of it rather than solely the subject having reliable sources. Btspurplegalaxy 🗩 🖉 20:29, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep - It was "approved" per se here after a discussion by the community. If it needs to be rehashed, then the subject has plenty of significant coverage in reliable sources. Ones that have happened since the most recent AfD in December include this and this. I hate Kardashian fame type Wikipedia pages, but it meets WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO.

You have to sort through all fan crap but you will find them. There is The New Straits Times which is reliable. Also a book from 2021 published by Bloomsbury Publishing, a notable publisher (not a self-publisher). Was the subject of and a guest on the Dr Phil Show. I also wouldn't throw out the Insider as it has been determined to be reliable for certain information such as culture reporting. CNN (in Indonesia so not sure if they have the same editorial standards as US but assuming so in good faith), Vice, The West Australian, The NZHerald (also considered generally reliable), and others. --CNMall41 (talk) 03:07, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

@CNMall41: FYI, The New Straits Times is a reprint of a Daily Mail piece. No comments on the other sources. – robertsky (talk) 05:45, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete Here we go again, but I was pinged above, and feel the same way I did when I went with "Delete" last time. Just because someone terms themself an "influencer", or some publication looks to hook a reader or two says "influencer" doesn't mean they have actually influenced anyone. There's an referenced Disography - did they chart at all? Big whoop here, somebody has plastic surgery, and announces they're transracial, doesn't mean they did anything notable. And these days, a lot of TV shows based their guest lists on whatever shocking thing will make an audience tune in - accomplishments not a requirement. At least Caitlyn Jenner had some sizeable accomplishments prior to their decision to change genders. And Chaz Bono was already famous decades prior to the change, and is using their experience to help others. What did this guy do? Nothing. Even piano playing cats can get on YouTube - no big deal. — Maile (talk) 04:00, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]
Please keep in mind that notability isn't defined by how interesting you personally find a particular subject (though I do sympathize with your boredom—there's a long list of topics I could care less about, but which nonetheless meet notability guidelines). Notability in this context is primarily defined by how independent secondary sources treat the subject of the article, and it seems pretty clear that as boring as you personally find this, enough reliable sources cover this in enough detail that this should be an unambiguous Keep. Yitz (talk) 04:24, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]
Please do not assume. Boredom is not the issue here. Early life and Career sections, with only one exception, are flagged for sourcing issues. Discography has no sourcing, no links, no information at all on the alleged singles. Aside from those, all you have is the section on their identity. And ... so what? My comments higher up on Jenner and Bono, were meant to convey that the reason their gender reassignments were known, is because they had been celebrities for decades before each had the process. Otherwise, they'd just be two trans people we would have never heard of. — Maile (talk) 16:16, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep Nothing has changed since the last AfD. They have sigcov in The Daily Dot, Business Insider, and Sky News.

Weak keep I just googled them and there have been two articles in Newsweek where they are the focus. Has this person ever accomplished anything but drama? Maybe not. But have they got significant coverage because of causing drama? It seems so. -- Bob drobbs (talk) 04:56, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Newsweek's not a reliable source per WP:RSP. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 17:29, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete I don't think Wikipedia should deserve to have an article of someone who is only famous for changing their race by having multiple plastic surgeries and engaging in obsessive/toxic fan behaviour. No notable achievements and having music career which was literally unknown and later poorly received among general populace. This is an online encyclopaedia, not a celebrity gossip site. Toadboy123 (talk) 06:34, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete Like I said last time, this article is full of material that is either unsourced or improperly sourced. Last time I suggested that if anyone thought it should be kept they they could dratify if until it was ready for mainspace but since last time no one seems to make any good edits to the article and almost all the sources are tagged as unreliable. If we removed all of that content that isn't properly sourced, then the article would just be a stub. If editors feel that this is an article worth keeping then they should've worked on fixing it to make it a proper article with reliable sources but since no one seems to be interested in it then that shows that this person isn't really notable enough to have an article and it should just get deleted. FanDePopLatino (talk) 06:45, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]
since no one seems to be interested in it then that shows that this person isn't really notable enough to have an article That is not how our notability policy works. Mlb96 (talk) 17:34, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Stubs are okay as articles, but yes, I would like all the cruft to be shaken out and see if it can stand on what's left. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 17:38, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep as CNMall41 points out above, there is ample reliable sourcing available. There is no need for the subject to meet WP:NMUSIC, they just need to meet WP:NBIO. Notability isn't about what the person did, it's about the coverage they receive. NemesisAT (talk) 10:01, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Comment. This is classic WP:BLP1E and needs further analysis as to whether they have continuing impact and whether they will continue getting coverage.WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE Although deletion is not cleanup WP:DINC, the preponderance of unreliable sources makes it difficult to assess this. Because the article is a BLP, all the unreliable sources and their related statements should be removed immediately:
- Per WP:KO/RS, Kpopcalypse, Koreaboo, United K-pop
- Per WP:RSP, Newsweek (unreliable), Business Insider (borderline unreliable), Insider Culture topic (OK to keep)

The person does not meet WP:MUSICBIO, so I would also get rid of or comment out the singles listed.

The appearance on Dr. Phil helps, but they are nowhere near Bhad Bhabie in notability for showing up on a talk show. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 17:23, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Also if the result is to delete, I would merge to Jimin (singer, born 1995) under the Impact and influence section. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 17:30, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Great analysis and spot on. I am with the WP:IDL crowd as I don't feel this person deserves to be in Wikipedia for blowing all their money for something like this. However, IDL is an argument to avoid and they have received continued significant coverage over the last three years so WP:LASTING should be met in my opinion. --CNMall41 (talk) 17:33, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Speedy Keep Plenty of sourcing to meet WP:SIGCOV; if the existing sources aren't enough for you, there's also this Newsweek article. Most of the !delete votes are essentially WP:IDONTLIKEIT. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 18:46, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Invited by Btspurplegalaxy with a neutral post on my talk page. I am with AngusWOOF on this. As much as IDL on the subject, but I don't see the need to delete the article. If kept, the statements backed by unreliable sources should be removed for it is a BLP (WP:KO/RS should be applicable for this subject since the primary notability angle is a Korean one (K-pop)). However, if it is a decision to be deleted, I rather that the article be redirected and merged into Jimin (singer, born 1995), summarising only the statements that are backed by reliable sources. – robertsky (talk) 05:54, 10 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete This is a company/organization therefore NCORP guidelines apply.

Winning notable awards counts towards notability but none of the awards won by the topic company can be considered as notable for the purposes of establishing notability. In addition, "independent sources" doesn't just mean that the publisher has no corporate links with the topic company - see below for details of the requirement also for "Independent Content".

As per WP:SIRS each reference must meet the criteria for establishing notability - the quantity of coverage is irrelevant, there can be 100 references but for the purposes of establishing notability we only require a minumum of two that each meet the criteria
WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content".
"Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. This is usually the criteria where most references fail. References cannot rely only on information provided by the company, quotations, press releases, announcements, interviews fail ORGIND. Whatever is left over must also meet CORPDEPTH.

Not a single reference either mentioned above or in the article meet the criteria. The reference by Galitz above is a mere mention-in-passing which includes a quotation from a company executive - nothing that meets CORPDEPTH and ORGIND. Topic fails WP:NCORP. HighKing⁺⁺ 15:47, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Jamie Teachenor

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Heavily WP:REFBOMBed and overly promotional puff piece on a marginal songwriter. According to this link, he only has credits on three low-charting singles. Most of the sources are PR publicity fluff, sales sites, or passive name-drops in the context of greater things (such as pointing out that he wrote a non-notable song on a Trace Adkins album). The closest I've come to finding decent sources is a "story behind the song" on "How Do You Get That Lonely", Teachenor's only contribution that seems to pass WP:NSONGS. He also has claims to charting on some small obscure independent and/or sales charts that do not pass WP:GOODCHARTS. What little coverage I did find was mostly "Jamie Teachenor co-wrote this song on this album" or local coverage of events at which he was one of many participants.

Keep Respected dear friends, this discussion is about a local language art director, according to which there is enough coverage, if you know the Marathi region, then you understand that this is enough coverage according to the art director.

Delete Not realising WP:FILMMAKER. There are 4 criteria there and he meets none of them. His contribution to the projects he has done can’t be considered that big that he would qualify this policy. Laptopinmyhands (talk) 14:32, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete. My searches in English, Marathi, and Hindi didn't find anything beyond trivial mentions along the lines of "the film's art director was Yogesh Ingale". These sorts of passing comments do not constitute significant coverage, so Ingale does not meet the GNG. Assuming for sake of argument that WP:NCREATIVE applies to art directors, he doesn't meet any of those four criteria either: they each require that the subject be considered noteworthy in some sense by the outside world, and there's no indication here that the outside world has accorded him any in-depth attention at all. I hope the closer looks at more than just the pure !vote count here: the keep arguments are not rooted in our policies or guidelines. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 23:14, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Most of the sources are "Lost in the Cloud", which appears to be a personal blog. The others are random listicles about "viral" sheet music that only mention Stump/Faerie's Aire in passing and point out how funny and impossible it is, along with YouTube videos of people "attempting" to play it and then meta-commentaries from said listicles on the same.

~~Weak~~ keep per WP:ANYBIO #2, given that Stump composed what is likely the most prominent example of satirical sheet music of all time. I wish there was more sourcing, but it's better than the nominator makes out, with the Glendale Focus obit in particular providing SIGCOV. IAR I think it's a notable topic given that seemingly half of American high school music rehearsal rooms have Faerie's Aire on the wall and every music person I know has seen it. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 20:53, 19 February 2022 (UTC)^{Modified 18:23, 20 February 2022 (UTC) to strike "weak"; see below.}[]
I found some further coverage here:
Fee, Christopher R.; Webb, Jeffery B., eds. (2016). "Death Waltz". American Myths, Legends, and Tall Tales: An Encyclopedia of American Folklore. Santa Barbara, California: ABC-CLIO. pp. 297–298. ISBN 9781610695688.

I don't think we could justify pages about both Stump and Faerie's Aire, but we have enough for one, and it makes sense to have it located at Stump given that he's the broader topic. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 21:38, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[]

@Sdkb: Obituaries are not significant coverage. Lots of people get obits, including my dad. That doesn't make them notable. Especially concerning is that I can't find the obit anywhere other than on the blog. Notability does not equal "everyone in high school music class has seen this". The "American Myths, Legends, and Tall Tales" coverage doesn't even amount to a full sentence and only name-drops Stump in reference to another composer. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 21:57, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[]
Paid obituaries don't count; reported obituaries do. This one was written by the publisher of the Glendale Focus, with the only complication being that the publisher knew Stump (being unable to find a copy of the newspaper is immaterial unless you wish to dispute its veracity). If you'd prefer something completely independent, I just found and added this:
- Gordon, Molly (16 July 1993). "Remove cattle from stage". The Berkshire Eagle. p. 7. Retrieved 19 February 2022.
Regarding An Encyclopedia of American Folklore, I think you must've just read the first sentence—there's significantly more coverage of him and Faerie's Aire farther down. Given the new sourcing, I'm dropping "weak" from my !vote. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 07:47, 20 February 2022 (UTC)[]

The newspaper piece you added appears to be an editorial with a personally invested tone, which does not constitute WP:SIGCOV. It's just one random person, who may not even be a journalist, reminiscing on it. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 19:12, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[]

Delete highly promotional article that's way off the mark.

Comment I get enough hits discussing and testing the theory in Gscholar, it might be notable. Oaktree b (talk) 18:46, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Weak keep There seems to be non-trivial citations to the book in scholarly literature, with Google Scholar showing 396 citations. While many involve the authors of the theory themselves, and presumably a lot more are passing mentions, based on quick skimming there are plenty that are more extensive coverage:

Colaresi, Michael P., and William R. Thompson. "Alliances, arms buildups and recurrent conflict: Testing a steps-to-war model." The Journal of Politics 67.2 (2005): 345-364.
Sample, Susan G. "Anticipating war? War preparations and the steps-to-war thesis." British Journal of Political Science 48.2 (2018): 489-511.
Sample, Susan G. "From territorial claim to war: Timing, causation, and the steps-to-war." International Interactions 40.2 (2014): 270-285.
Slantchev, Branislav L. "The Steps to War: An Empirical Study." (2009): 386-388.
Khan, Akbar. "Steps-to-War Theory and Interstate Wars in the Middle East: Is State-Sponsored Terrorism Another Escalating Step?." Journal of Asian and African Studies 56.7 (2021): 1521-1537.

That said, the article is not in a great shape overall, with the second half of the lede making various rather strong claims ("shows" etc.) that should either be cited to independent references or removed. My !vote is Weak because I'm not too familiar with any guidelines/policies specific to books. -Ljleppan (talk) 10:07, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep If someone wrote a whole book about it, and that book was published by a univeristy, it seems notable to me https://press.princeton.edu/books/paperback/9780691138923/the-steps-to-war The article references the book but doesn't cite it, not sure if I should add it in, having not read the book, even though obviously it talks about the theory.

Also this paper, I'll add it in: https://oxfordre.com/politics/view/10.1093/acrefore/9780190228637.001.0001/acrefore-9780190228637-e-275 CT55555 (talk) 05:45, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Just pointing out that the book is not really a solid reference here given that it's written by the people who – as far as I can determine – came up with the theory. That said, there are plenty of independent (i.e. not involving Senese or Vasquez) scholarly works discussing the theory (either directly or via the book advancing it), and hence my (weak) keep above. -Ljleppan (talk) 08:41, 11 March 2022 (UTC)[]

Keep Not every academic neologism/theory will be notable, but this one has its own entry in the Oxford Research Encyclopaedia of Politics (which contains state-of-the-art summaries of the literature in notable research areas), which is strong evidence of mainstream scholarly adoption of the concept. The bibliography of that encyclopaedia article alone has something like 50 references, almost all of which will discuss this concept. This is very very clearly notable.

Speedy keep by WP:CREATIVE 4(d): The person's work (or works) has ... (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums. One of her watercolor pieces - painted while a refugee in 1945 - is held in Malmö Museum's collection (auto-translated link). 1993 Oral history and pre-1945 letters to mother are held at United States Holocaust Memorial Museum as cited in article. Additional works held in local museums in New Jersey USA and Koblenz Germany. I think that's all in addition to her published book as well.
