  • Keep or redirect to Tournament Players Club. We should avoid WP:LOTSOFSOURCES argument; as nom didn't say there were none, they noted a lack of in-depth coverage. Also, 4 of 8 links provided by KatoKungLee are only findable w/ a newspapers.com subscription.
    There's a lot of routine/mention coverage to wade through but [7] (fairly in-depth review in RS), [8] (article not specifically about course but provides some good detail about it), [5] (also decent detail, discusses golf digest awards) are the three best sources imo. I oppose outright deletion, but don't feel very strongly about keep vs. redirect. Zzz plant (talk) 01:33, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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

Article about an office building, not properly sourced as passing inclusion criteria for office buildings. As always, buildings are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and have to be shown to pass WP:GNG on reliable source coverage and analysis of their architectural, historical, social or cultural significance -- but this doesn't make any meaningful notability claim over and above existing, and is referenced almost entirely to primary sources that aren't support for notability. The only reliable source present here at all is an insurance industry trade magazine, which is here solely to tangentially verify the name of the company's CEO rather than supporting any information about the building in its own right.
Since it's the headquarters of a company that does have an article under WP:CORP terms, any information we need about its head office can easily be contained in the company's article -- but in order to qualify for its own standalone article as a separate topic from the company, it would need a much stronger notability claim, and much better sourcing for it, than this.

  • Keep Articles about designated heritage buildings is something that we should be expanding on Wikipedia. This is a prominent and very well-known building - you even see mention of it in fiction, such as [ short stories] by Austin Clarke. There has been coverage over the last half-century, such as this significant trade article when it was sold in 2022. There was national media coverage when it was constructed, such as in the Globe and Mail (ProQuest 1270450320). Even if the article isn't deemed worthy of inclusion, it's most certainly should be merged and/or redirected to Foresters Financial. Nfitz (talk) 23:38, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh boy, here we go. So: this article violates WP:NOTPROMO, as most of the sources are puffy primary sources or online forums, or a primary source for the project itself. Next, this fails the notability guidelines for art and the general notability guideline, as a cursory search reveals no coverage in reliable secondary sources. This breaches WP:RS, WP:SIGCOV, and WP:SUSTAINED. There's an MIT paper (and some more stuff). about the concept of "Desktop Theater," but that is seperate. The sources are also quite biased, as one of the big ones is the homepage for this project. Some others include an online chat room called The Palace. Bad, biased sources.

This is an article about a primary school. Per the 2017 RfC, secondary schools aren't inherently notable; this is a primary school. Definitely no inherent notability. As for other things, this article fails WP:GNG, WP:SIGCOV, and WP:RS. This is a completely unsourced article with no citations, tagged as such since 2013. This article also doesn't use an encyclopedic tone, and can be borderline puffery for a large portion of it. This article also isn't in any other languages. Per above, this article should be deleted.

This is an article about a random german count. This fails the notabiltity guidelines for people, because Wikipedia is not genealogy and random post-medieval counts are not inherently notable. No claims to notability here, besides being a random German count. No sources cited, and has had this tag since 2017.

Fails WP:NBIO and WP:SIGCOV, subject is only even potentially notable in connection with a single event, the 1978 Revelation on Priesthood. Cited sources establishing notability are not WP:INDEPENDENT. They consist of: the subject's autobiography, two publications by the subject's employer (BYU), a Deseret News Church News article (an official mouthpiece of the LDS Church, which owns BYU), and an article in the Faith section of the LDS Church-owned Deseret News.

This is an article about a minorly successful Playstation 2 game. This article is completely unsourced. Found coverage at the time of publishing in the form of a page on game site IGN, and a Metacritic page. There's one review on said IGN page. Because of this, this page fails WP:GNG, WP:SIGCOV, (there really isn't any) and the coverage is WP:ROUTINE. tl;dr this article shouldn't exist.

This is bizzare. From French Wikipedia I learned that this was released for Wii as Vertigo, and JV confirms it: [6]. Why the developer released the same game under three different names for three different systems is beyond me, but they appear to be the same game.

I came to this article due to a new editor altering the DoB, possibly a Coi editor. I noticed it was referenced to IMDb so I removed it (and the IMDb link). I then noticed the that the only other reference was IMDb. In 2009, a verification tag was added. Per WP:BEFORE I have searched Google, newspaper and books. The only mention I could find was in the footnotes of a book, nothing in the main text. I do not believe the subject meets WP:GNG. I think this is my first AfD nomination and I wasn't sure about what other categories, if any, should be included. Knitsey (talk) 20:10, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In the previous deletion discussions (dating back to 2004), there were comments that said this article should be kept as long as the problems are fixed, including some that said the "Other" section should be removed. It's now 2025, and there's still tons of unsourced entries and the "Other" section is still there, and it has a "multiple issues" tag with items dating to February 2022 and August 2017. This list is also fundamentally unencyclopedic, given that it provides no information other than that some people find the names unusual, and just because there are sources does not mean it should be included; see Verifiability does not guarantee inclusion. All the promises have failed to be lived up to; time for it to go. It can always be recreated at any time once the problems are fixed. 123957a (talk) 21:44, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I agree with the nominator. I don't think this is significant and what constitutes unusual is not really defined unless we're saying anything not recognized by IUPAC which is an incredible number of compounds. It's normal to give chemicals memorable or even "weird" names because systemic nomenclature for large molecules is only useful for computers.
Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 23:11, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per previous discussions. Suggest we should start listing these at WP:PEREN after the 5th deletion discussion. Jclemens (talk) 06:23, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hey, I know you actually agree with the previous discussions, but I'd like to remind everyone here to not vote "keep" solely because previous discussions ended in keep. Thanks. 123957a (talk) 02:44, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and salt: While this isn't the worst list I've seen by any stretch, its criteria for inclusion are inherently subjective, culture-dependent, and frankly silly: "Some names derive legitimately from their chemical makeup, from the geographic region where they may be found, the plant or animal species from which they are isolated or the name of the discoverer"...how is that unusual? That's how newly-discovered species and minerals have been named for centuries. I can see this list having use as a fun trivia exercise to introduce people to chemistry, but that isn't what WP is for. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 11:32, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Jclemens, and the nominator could start cleaning up the article. Christian75 (talk) 17:13, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That's been tried. It hasn't worked. Also, most of the entries don't have a source and are just one Wikipedia editor's personal opinion of what is unusual, which is WP:OR. 123957a (talk) 02:36, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Christian75, sure, but according to wikipedia policy the burden is not on the nominator to improve an article. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 19:37, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This just a childish collection of trivia. Virtually all chemical names are unusual in the sense that (mistakes apart) no two chemical compounds have the same name. Athel cb (talk) 09:52, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question Per WP:LISTCRITERIA, inclusion criteria should be unambiguous, objective, and supported by reliable sources. Avoid original or arbitrary criteria that would synthesize a list that is not plainly verifiable in reliable sources. Might those in favour of keeping this list explain how this requirement is met here? TompaDompa (talk) 10:11, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment references from the 5th nomination: "There are several reliable and independent sources listing these as chemical molecules with silly names. See "Molecules With Silly Or Unusual Names," by Paul May, published by Imperial College Press, 2008, ISBN-13: 978-1848162075. See also "Storyville: Molecular scientists have a word for it." The Independent on Sunday, Feb 1, 2004 by David Randall. He also finds amusing "Curious chloride" and "Moronic acid" from the Bristol University list. In many cases, the names were selected to be amusing or whimsical. A ref specifically saying that "arsole" has an unfortunate silly name is [9] "Chemical Cock-ups: A Story of How Not to Name a Chemical Compound Created" BBC, 13th April 2006. Then they in turn cite the Bristol site. The Royal Society of Chemistry makes fun of the silly name of Moronic acid at [10] in their Autumn 2005 newsletter. Another reliable and independent source listing some of these as having silly names is [11] "The New Book of Lists: The Original Compendium of Curious Information"(2005) By David Wallechinsky, Amy Wallace, page 203. Any entries which are not citeable to a reliable source which says it is a silly or unusual name can be deleted by the normal editing process."" Christian75 (talk) 19:35, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NACADEMIC and WP:ANYBIO. None of his memberships are to "highly selective and prestigious" associations. (He is a fellowship director in the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, but this is not covered in NACADEMIC#3, and the selectivity of this position is unclear.) h-index is 16 on Google Scholar. The only coverage in independent sources is him being quoted or interviewed. Created by a blocked COI editor. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 18:46, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Under WP:GNG a subject is considered notable if they have received significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. The individual seems to have been independently profiled in medical news outlets and featured in publications beyond simple interviews. It seems that he has been interviewed by New York City news outlets, and featured on podcasts which are considered primary source material.
WP:NACADEMIC has strict thresholds, an h-index of 16 in a specialized surgical field is significant when compared within the context of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, and otolaryngology, which is a narrower subspecialty. This individual has authored numerous peer-reviewed publications and book chapters, and serves as a fellowship director at a nationally recognized training program. Leadership within the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS) reflects a selective professional achievement. Dr. Mourad has organized national training programs and contributed to academic curriculum development, which reflects broader professional recognition. Please see Babak Azizzadeh and Andrew A. Jacono, as similar individuals with comparable credentials and leadership within the same organization. Objectively speaking, this individual appears to be notable with similar individuals having similar profiles.
With regards to COI, while the initial article creation may have involved a COI, this alone is not a reason for deletion according to Wikipedia policy. I believe Content should be judged based on the strength of independent sources and compliance with notability guidelines. 2603:7000:24F0:88E0:D46E:92BD:14F9:D76E (talk) 22:10, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

"The Great Gurus of the Sikhs: Guru Tegh Bahadur & Govind Singh" does not mention this battle at all. Hari Ram Gupta (1984) dedicates 7 lines to this battle[12]. Madra, Amandeep Singh; Singh, P. (2016) mentions in footnotes that the first conflict between Sikhs and Mughals was fought in 1628 and provides no further details[13]. Daljeet Singh, Kharak Singh (1997) does not mention this battle. Gandhi, Surjit Singh (1978) covers the Battle of Amritsar (1634) and not the Battle of Sangrama fought in 1628. This article is perhaps conflating the two because all other sources are covering the second battle which we already have an article on, from the reading of the sources it seems the incident at Sangrana in 1628 (I doubt there was even a battle in 1628) served as a background/provocation to the Battle of Amritsar (1634), therefore I think it can be covered over there.

The article does not establish notability according to Wikipedia guidelines. It does not cite significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources.

Keep. The article actually only has one primary source about a 2007 video project, I suppose that sentence could be removed. Otherwise, the subject has been covered extensively by independent outlets such as CBC News, Edmonton Journal, Calgary Herald, etc. A simple search on Google and Newspapers.com shows that the subject passes WP:GNG with flying colours.

As far as the concern you provided, All sources validate all the information in this person page and the name can be written in different forms as middle name and last name is usually used interchangeably in Ethiopian culture thus why you might think the person isn't mentioned. The last name might be broken apart to 'Haile' and 'Michael' to be used as Middle name and Last name respectively or Hailemichael is written as H'Michael which is common in Ethiopia. So please reconsider your stance for deletion of page as every source is unbiased and factual. Thank you. Anteneh1990 (talk) 04:22, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:

    People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.

    • If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

      The book notes: "綜上所述,吳坤煌透過詩歌及戲劇活動聯繫臺灣與國際左翼運動,這些活動中牽涉大量的文化翻譯行為。誠如王惠珍有關吳坤煌與金斗鎔跨國文藝運動之比較分析,吳坤煌立基於臺灣觀點,細心考量了發表媒體的性質及中、日讀者的差異,顯示清晰的殖民地作家的戰略性。他與中國流亡作家雷石榆、朝鮮旅日作家金斗鎔的角色極其類似,三人皆為東亞左翼作家在日本的重要窗口。吳坤煌的左翼文藝活動具有以下意義:第一,左翼文化走廊的形成,是一群「不轉向者」在左翼運動寒冬共同奮戰的成果。吳坤煌亦是「轉向」風潮的抵抗者之一;第二,以國際都市東京為舞臺的「不轉向者」,其存續條件、戰鬥策略和支持動力,除了日本左翼文化人之外,亦仰賴跨民族/跨國左翼分子彼此間的交流與結盟;第三,吳坤煌只是左翼走廊中的眾多活動者之一,但是他的聯繫工作卻使得因政治運動式微而低迷的臺灣文壇與東亞左翼文化運動的依存體系取得聯繫,該體系也藉此獲得來自臺灣的帝國主義批判資源。"

      From Google Translate: "In summary, Wu Kunhuang connected Taiwan with the international left-wing movement through poetry and drama activities, which involved a large amount of cultural translation. As Wang Huizhen's comparative analysis of Wu Kunhuang and Jin Dourong's transnational literary movements shows, Wu Kunhuang, based on the Taiwanese perspective, carefully considered the nature of the publishing media and the differences between Chinese and Japanese readers, showing a clear strategic nature of a colonial writer. His role is extremely similar to that of Chinese exiled writer Lei Shiyu and North Korean writer living in Japan Kim Doo-yong. All three are important windows for East Asian left-wing writers in Japan. Wu Kunhuang's left-wing literary and artistic activities have the following significance: First, the formation of the left-wing cultural corridor is the result of a group of "non-turners" fighting together in the cold winter of the left-wing movement. Wu Kunhuang was also one of the people who resisted the "turn" trend; secondly, the survival conditions, combat strategies and support motivation of the "non-turners" based in the international city of Tokyo, in addition to Japanese left-wing cultural figures, also relied on exchanges and alliances between cross-ethnic/transnational leftists; thirdly, Wu Kunhuang was only one of many activists in the left-wing corridor, but his networking work enabled the Taiwanese literary world, which was depressed by the decline of political movements, to connect with the dependent system of the East Asian left-wing cultural movement, which also obtained imperialist critical resources from Taiwan."

      The book notes: "1930年代台灣日語作家中與日本左翼文化團體關係最為密切者,當屬楊達(1906-1985)與吳坤煌(1909-1989)兩人。楊逵因小說〈送報伕〉一作榮獲《文學評論》的徵文獎進入日本中央文壇,但吳坤煌在日本文壇卻未曾得過任何文學獎項,作品以詩和評論為主,產量不多。1939年便前往中國謀職,未直接參與台灣戰爭期的文學活動。因此,在台灣新文學史上並未受到特別的關注。直至下村作次郎著手研究《福爾摩沙》青年們之後,利用挖掘的一手文獻史料,釐清了吳坤煌與朝鮮左翼知識分子金斗鎔、舞蹈家崔承喜(1911-1969)的交友關係和他在日本的中、台、鮮文化交流圈內所扮演的角色後,才讓我們對吳坤煌在日的文化活動有較完整的認識。"

      From Google Translate: "Among the Japanese writers in Taiwan in the 1930s, those who had the closest ties with Japan's left-wing cultural groups were Yang Da (1906-1985) and Wu Kunhuang (1909-1989). Yang Kui won the essay award from Literary Review for his novel "The Newspaper Delivery Boy" and entered the central literary world of Japan, but Wu Kunhuang has never won any literary awards in the Japanese literary world. His works are mainly poetry and criticism, and his output is not large. He went to China to seek employment in 1939 and did not directly participate in literary activities during the war in Taiwan. Therefore, it has not received special attention in the history of Taiwan's modern literature. It was not until Shimomura Sakujiro began to study the "Formosa Youths" and used the first-hand documentary materials he excavated to clarify Wu Kunhuang's friendship with the Korean left-wing intellectual Kim Doo-yong and the dancer Choi Seung-hui (1911-1969) and the role he played in the Chinese, Taiwanese and Korean cultural exchange circles in Japan that we had a more complete understanding of Wu Kunhuang's cultural activities in Japan."

      The book notes: "中國的田漢(1898-1979)與台灣的吳坤煌(1909-1989),從二人今日留下的戲劇創作與評論,除了可知他們在東京如何透過戲劇受到左翼文藝思潮的洗禮,也可看出二人在東京交疊的軌跡。吳坤煌不僅參與田漢的戲劇演出,也曾發表田漢戲曲作品的劇評。... 有關吳坤煌在日戲劇活動的先行研究,首先有日本學者下村作次郎針對吳坤煌的東京時代爬梳其與朝鮮演劇家金斗鎔,以及劇作家秋田雨雀之間交流的關係。該文透過資料仔細比對追蹤,確認北村敏夫便是吳坤煌的筆名。柳書琴對於吳坤煌於東京與日本左"

      From Google Translate: "From the drama creations and reviews left behind by China's Tian Han (1898-1979) and Taiwan's Wu Kunhuang (1909-1989), we can not only see how they were influenced by left-wing literary and artistic trends through drama in Tokyo, but also see the overlapping trajectories of the two in Tokyo. Wu Kunhuang not only participated in Tian Han's drama performances, but also published reviews of Tian Han's opera works. ... The first research on Wu Kunhuang's theatrical activities in Japan was conducted by Japanese scholar Sakujiro Shimomura, who explored Wu Kunhuang's exchanges with the Korean playwright Kim Doo-yong and the playwright Akita Ujaku during his Tokyo period. Through careful comparison and tracking of the data, this article confirmed that Kitamura Toshio is the pen name of Wu Kunhuang.

      From Google Translate: "Wu Kunhuang (1909-1989) was a poet, critic, dramatist, teacher, social activist, etc. His pen names are Wu Yesheng, Kitamura Toshio, and Yu Yonghuangsheng. From Nantou, Taiwan. In 1923, he was admitted to Taichung Normal School. In 1929, he was expelled from school due to the aftermath of the student movement and went to Tokyo, where he studied at Japan Dental College, Japan Theological Seminary, Nihon University, Meiji University and other schools. In August 1932, he and Wang Baiyuan, Lin Dui and others organized the Tokyo Taiwanese Cultural Association () under the Japanese Proletarian Cultural Federation (KOPF), but the organization was banned and his studies were interrupted. From then on until he returned to Taiwan in March or April 1938, he lived in Tokyo and persisted in the left-wing cultural movement amid the trend of shifting trends. In 1933, he organized the Taiwan Art Research Society with Zhang Wenhuan, Wu Yongfu and other students studying in Japan, and published "Mao". He edited the first issue, which was the first Japanese pure literature magazine in Taiwan."

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Wu Kunhuang (traditional Chinese: 吳坤煌; simplified Chinese: 吴坤煌) to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

This is an article about a supercentenarian, the oldest living French person on earth. This might be controversial, but I think this article violates WP:OLDAGE; just because something or someone is old does not make them notable. Looking at this article, there are no claims to notability besides the fact that she is really old. Yes, there is coverage in WP:RS, but it is not sustained coverage, and it barely clears WP:SIGCOV. What do we think? I don't think that people should have wikipedia articles purely because they happen to be very old. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 14:30, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment WP:OLDAGE says that if there are reliable sources covering the topic then it might merit an article perhaps a source analysis is in order (i would do it but im not very confident about the accurary i would have in determing the sources) if the sources arent good then i will vote delete but i cant just vote delete based on it isnt notable because i think it isnt Scooby453w (talk)

  • Weak Keep per the statement "the sources are good and reliable but I don't think it's notable" and the guideline (and i may be wrong) says "being old isn't inherently notable unless there are reliable sources that have SIGCOV" so I feel like barring a source analysis that discredits the sources I have to vote to keep though I might change my mind if someone has a more convincing argumentScooby453w (talk)
Sure, but the subject barely clears WP:SIGCOV and does not meet WP:SUSTAINED, as there is not sustained coverage; stores from a few years ago when she became the oldest person in France.

Failed WP:GNG, WP:COMPOSER, and WP:BANDMEMBER with no significant coverage from WP:BEFORE other than passing mentions Paper9oll (🔔📝) 12:47, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Bands and musicians, Korea, and South Korea. Paper9oll (🔔📝) 12:47, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I wonder if something here could be rescued by rewriting this into an article about the music group or the scandal itself? This Korean source, cited in the article, states that "the plagiarism suspicions surrounding singer Lee Hyo-ri's album, which had been causing a stir in the music industry for a month, have been partially confirmed to be true, causing a huge backlash. The expression 'the greatest plagiarism fraud case' is also appearing." This suggests that there are other sources out there - and also, that the article focus should be on the scandal, not the individual (who seems not very notable - we don't even have their birth date or pretty much anything about their life outside this scandal). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:53, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. Citations show no significant coverage of this defunct website. Reliable sources sometimes use the site's data: "According to the College Football Data Warehouse...". But I cannot find any sources that offer WP:SIGCOV of the website itself. PK-WIKI (talk) 21:05, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

CFDW is a major information repository/resource. It has not only been cited regularly as a reliable source by major media outlets, scholarly journals, and books; it is also cited as a source in hundreds (thousands?) of Wikipedia articles and is recognized here as a reliable source. Deleting the article, which provides background information and context on the database, simply does not improve Wikipedia. I don't recall ever relying on WP:IAR in 18 years working on Wikipedia, but this is a case where it definitely applies: "If a rule prevents you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore it." Cbl62 (talk) 10:01, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The fact that the subject has been widely cited in books on college football history and in scholarly journals, such as the Journal of Sports Economics, the Utah Law Review, the Tulsa Law Review, the Oklahoma Law Review, and Sports Law, is proof of notability. The points made by Cbl62, all of which are valid, also favor keeping the article. In addition, this article is a valuable source of information, which if lost would be detrimental to Wikipedia. Jeff in CA (talk) 10:03, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Projectify We have several keep votes already here, but PK-WIKI's central point remains unchallenged: there has been no substantial coverage of the College Football Data Warehouse itself to establish it as a notable subject. Its use as a source in books, newspapers, and journals and establishes it a reliable source (at least in the past), but not clearly as a notable subject. Compare, for example, with Baseball Reference, which was the subject of a 2015 article in Rolling Stone (here). We having nothing of that sort for CFDW. I also have my doubts that CFWD remains a quality tertiary source now that it is defunct and has not been updated in several years, and therefore does not reflect any of the error-checking and de-bugging against primary and secondary sources that we editors have performed here in editing Wikipedia in recent years. In the early to mid 2010s, I sent David DeLassus over 100 emails regarding errors I found on his website, and he made corrections accordingly. But that obviously stopped once the site went effectively defunct nearly a decade ago. To that point, I have been removing references to CFDW wherever they are redundant or can be replaced with other suitable sources. I plan to eventually remove all the references to CFDW, if possible. But given CFDW's history as a reliable source and frequent citation here on Wikipedia, I think this article should be preserved in some form. A WikiProject College football project page seems like the best fit. Jweiss11 (talk) 14:49, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree with moving it to the internal Wikipedia:WikiProject College football space. That page would be far more useful than the current article, as we could discuss the history/authorship/reliability/sourcing issues you mention that are inappropriate for mainspace.

Keep as incredibly widely cited media outlet. It’s well established that media doesn’t cover other media in the same way it covers the subjects themselves. WilsonP NYC (talk) 22:43, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
WilsonP makes an incredibly good point. And very few media outlets have such a long history of being cited as a reliable source to the extent we see here with CFDW being cited in the most reputable newspapers in America in addition to books and academic journals. Cbl62 (talk) 05:40, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Response Among the Wikipedia articles on college football, for the past several years, mentions of and citations to CFDW have (for reasons not related to WP:GNG or WP:SIGCOV) been removed from articles and lists by:
    • replacing, within a table, a column that relied on CFDW for inclusion criteria,
    • deleting from another article the very same table that appears in this subject article,
    • deleting a section about CFDW,
    • (per a statement by one of the respected editors above) removing references to CFDW, with a mission to eventually remove all references to CFDW from Wikipedia.
For some of these removals, I began a discussion to object to and resolve the disagreements, and in the end, I relented based on good faith considerations. However, the pursuit to remove CFDW wherever it is mentioned is beginning to seem like a targeted effort to inflict upon CFDW a "death by a thousand cuts", and I am growing weary in general, not to mention becoming older by the day. And I mean no disrespect of any other editors.
Perhaps there is an effort to eradicate all mention of CFDW from Wikipedia; I don't know. I will predict that, if this article is moved to Wikiproject space, then in relatively short time, someone (in disregard of the level of project activity and collaboration it might receive) will say, "The project never really got off the ground," and nominate it for MFD. That could well be a nail in the coffin of CFDW on Wikipedia, and people will celebrate that Wikipedia policies prevailed and therefore that CFDW suffered a deserved fate.
Therefore, I agree with Cbl62 that, if ever there was a reason for implementing WP:IAR to keep an article, this is it. Jeff in CA (talk) 20:38, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As an answer to that, from my perspective CFDW was extremely over-represented (to the point of clearly violating WP:NPOV / WP:WEIGHT) in the articles you mention. This probably comes from being one of the top college football websites available in the years immediately following the founding of Wikipedia. I am rather critical of their opinion on "recognized national champions" (as are you?) and I believe per our evolved adherence to NPOV it was right to remove them from the Wikipedia articles you mention.
CFDW is/was perhaps a reliable source on records and statistical data (although I do have my doubts due to it being WP:SELFPUBLISHED). My issue with using it for this, though, is that the authors of CFDW do not cite any sources for their information. They were surely just drawing it from athletic department publications and newspaper clippings, which is exactly what we now do here at Wikipedia. This was obviously MUCH harder in the time of microfilm and the early days of the internet, so I commend them for their research. But today, in the age of Newspapers.com and other great archives of contemporary reporting, I would rather just mostly skip the step of citing a random self-published website that has been offline for a decade and that may contain forever-uncorrected errors.
I myself have absolutely no intention of deleting a CFDW page in the CFB wikiproject space. I would probably be one of the primary authors. I would have expanded the mainspace article, but unfortunately there appears to be zero significant coverage ever written about the website. If either of the authors are shown to be notable or published, I will consider writing an article on them. PK-WIKI (talk) 01:35, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't find Jeff in CA's suggestion that if we projectify the CFDW article, it will soon be MfD'd to be credible. We have lots of project pages that have been around for years, including several that I created (like Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/Coaching trees, Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/Official college football guides, Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/Archived yearbooks, Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/Media guide errors). I don't recall any of these every being MfD'd. If someone were to MfD a projectified CFWD article, you can count on my keep vote there. Jweiss11 (talk) 07:14, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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

Negative undersourced BLP. Most of the article text is a WP:COATRACK for negative undersourced BLP material about someone else. I prodded this but my prod was removed by User:A. B. who provided as evidence for notability a newspaper article stating in vague terms legal charges against the subject and another newspaper article with a very brief mention that he was sentenced, neither used as footnotes for anything. I don't think these provide WP:SIGCOV. His position as deputy mayor does not pass WP:NPOL and the conviction does not have the evidence of lasting interest needed for WP:PERP. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:17, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: In response to David’s comments:
  • I added 3, not 2, refs including a NY Times front page article
  • News and newspaper searches turned up more out there.
  • The South China Morning Post article is exclusively about Lan Fu’s troubles
  • When searching for refs, add Xiamen mayor to filter out other people with that name.
  • This was my edit summary when removing the PROD: ” remove PROD. Notable but the tagged concern remains: this may be more about the _alleged_ kidnapping of his son, Lan Meng, by Chinese authorities in Australia as a hostage for Lan Fu's return. We don't have a Lan Meng article”
  • This article is likely not a BLP since all the refs said LAN Fu was sentenced to death 2 decades ago as I noted in another edit summary. (There’s no lingering on Chinese death rows).
  • WP:NPOL: Xiamen has over 5 million inhabitants; it’s larger than every North American city except NY and larger than any city in the EU.
  • Re not adding footnotes to go with the refs: I’d already spent 60+ minutes doing the WP:BEFORE and I was late for lunch
    • I tagged the article with an inline template and moved on.
I encourage others to look at the existing refs and what else is out there. —A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 20:34, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know if it's best to cover this as a biography article, but the scandal itself and his involvement is covered in several books [19] [20] [21] for just a few, there are many more. He was a very major player in this scandal and he was a public figure that was convicted so at the very least his name should redirect somewhere. Xiamen is a city of 5 million so there's also probably coverage of him as a mayor in Chinese. PARAKANYAA (talk) 21:47, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment/Keep. The article has his name in traditional characters, not simplified. This is hardly noticeable to humans but impacts whether you find anything via ctrl+F searching. The simplified version is 蓝甫. I am looking for solid sources, but my gut feeling is that this guy is likely notable as deputy mayor of Xiamen and for being involved in a corruption scandal that garnered national interest. Here is a 2023 piece describing the scandal in great detail [24] – I'm not sure how reliable the source is though.
One could argue that the subject was only one person involved in a scandal (the "Yunhua smuggling case") that got hundreds of people arrested and sentenced, but he is named by sources as having received one of the harshest sentences of all defendants [25], so presumably he played an outsized role in the scandal. This would also be the counterargument to BLP1E. Toadspike [Talk] 13:26, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I can't find a lot of sourcing on this guy, probably because the corruption case was in the very early days of the Chinese internet, but this [26] might constitute sigcov. He is also mentioned twice in this [27] scholarly review of the case – again, showing that his role was more significant than that of the hundreds of other defendants.

Having a look at the page's recent history before writing your relisting comment would have be a good idea, maybe?@Asilvering I had indeed added quite a few sources, and the AfD-changed template and my comment indicate that quite clearly. Nothing says to "show" the sources both at the AfD and in the article. If such a requirement existed, it would be purely vexatious and extremely bureaucratic. Another user and I also indicated where and how you could find sources and check the notability of this actress, if you didn't want to open the article or do a BEFORE for some reason. I indicated the nominator had apparently made no effort to check existing sources (and had not replied to another user's inquiry about that), whereas they should have and I consider it is a relevant and helfpful comment, in particular given the fact that another user bases their 2-word !vote on the nom's rationale. I also clearly indicated why I believe the actress meets WP:NACTRESS and even probably WP:GNG. So that I am very sorry to say that I very much disagree with the implications of your relisting comment, and pretty much everything in it, to be honest. -Mushy Yank. 12:47, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@WhoIsCentreLeft yeah? so sabah, hürriyet, radikal, which are major newspapers, are unreliable, and which of the references are unrelated?

Link rot is a natural occurrnce on the internet over time (ever checked when this article waswritten?)

(Removed prod.) This article conflates mathematical and linguistic uses of the symbol, implying that these uses are related. Two problems: First, the concepts in the two fields are quite different. The linguistic use is to represent a linguistic element that might be in that place but is not. The mathematical use is for a set that contains nothing; in particular, the set containing the empty set is different from the empty set, whereas no such distinction is evident in the linguistic use. Second, the term "null sign", in my experience, is not used for this symbol in mathematics.
It is possible (I wouldn't know) that this is in fact the standard name for this symbol in linguistics. In that case, an alternative to deletion would be to rewrite the article so as to make it entirely about linguistics, and remove the implication that the name "null sign" is used for the empty-set symbol in mathematics.

  • Keep My understanding is that this article is about the typographic symbol. Typically typographic symbols have multiple uses in different fields and it is normal to discuss the different uses in an article about the symbol. In the Unicode standard (first ref in the article), we can verify that codepoint 2205 has the description "EMPTY SET" and represents the "null set" in math and the "null morpheme" in linguistics, both described in the article. If you look at for instance, Exclamation mark, the article has the same kind of structure. Factorials in math are unrelated to exclamations in linguistics, but they both use the symbol and are described there. I think it would be good to clarify in the article that math and linguistic uses for the symbol are different concepts and that the symbol is referred to by different names, if it is not already clear. That is a matter of editing, however, not deletion. If you have beef with the title of the article, that could also be discussed on the talk page. I don't see a policy-based rationale for deletion here. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 20:46, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep - The links posted above basically link to the same story with the same title ("Schwimmer Christian Geßner war für ein paar Stunden Republik-Flüchtling", or in machine translation "Swimmer Christian Geßner [Gessner] was a refugee from the Republic for a few hours") which is about their missing a flight and being thought to have defected from the East Germany. The piece is one of those narrative-with-comments-from-the-subject stories where the author clear spoke to the journalist writing the story. If that were all there was I'd lean weak-delete, but I see there's also a Munziger bio that appears to be referencing a news article. The Spiegel piece referred to in the Munziger bio is a one-paragraph mention of Gessner. Neues Deutschland had an interview with Gessner, but given that this was the party mouthpiece it is not exactly a reliable source. None of these is the kind of solid SIGCOV that I'd like to see for an article but there does at least seem to be biographical detail in them beyond the usual stats.

Delete. This article does not meet WP:GNG. There is no broad consensus among reliable, independent sources that a distinct, notable "Canadian economic crisis" has occurred beginning in 2022. The article relies heavily on opinion pieces, politically affiliated think tanks, and partisan commentary rather than neutral, verifiable sources such as Statistics Canada, the Bank of Canada, the IMF, or the OECD. Furthermore, the framing of the term "crisis" appears to be politically motivated rather than supported by neutral economic reporting (WP:NPOV). Coverage of economic challenges such as inflation, productivity stagnation, and housing affordability already exists in appropriate general articles like Economy of Canada and Economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada. This article promotes a particular narrative, conflating political and economic developments, and fails core Wikipedia policies including WP:NOR and WP:RS. Recommend deletion or, alternatively, merging any truly neutral, verifiable material into broader economic coverage. Fusio15 (talk) 05:01, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete How is it that an article supposedly describing events 2022–present has few sources prior to 2024? I haven't found any of them that date back to the 2022 origin of the so-called crisis. This suggests to me that the doom-and-gloom scenario is a recent invention.
This article was the first time I'd heard about an economic crisis in Canada. It's clear that the country has problems, and the word "crisis" has been applied to very recent political events. However, it seems exaggeration to lump a lot of negative opinion together to depict the country as a failed state. Such an appearance is a political POV.
Most of the world has been in turmoil since before the pandemic. So it really isn't notable. Most of the world has been upset by the actions of an American president who acts illegally and changes his mind frequently. Canada has been the subject of a series of "big lies" from within and without. This article seems to continue that theme.
An opinion in the Washington Examiner loses credibility with me when they refer to the head of Canada's government as "the Premier". Perhaps it is such sources which gave an editor the idea that Canada had a president. Most of the references are to partisan opinion pieces. Such references have been cherry picked to support the existence of a crisis since 2022.
I think the subjects would be best covered in separate articles such as Investment, GDP, and Unemployment. As it is, beginning each topic with a condemnation strikes me as lacking balance, if not evidence of questionable motivation. Put together, they amount to a point of view which lacks neutrality. Hence, I think it best to delete this article.

I'm going to tread carefully, but I do not think that these short bible verses about two disciples running to look at a tomb (with none of the further context) passes Wikipedia notability guidelines for bible verses, and "media." See: Wikipedia:Bible verses. This is not a major bible verse. It was analyzed by John Calvin, but then again he commented on many, many bible verses. I'd like to say in advance that I'm not knowledgeable in this area, and my assessment is that notability guidelines aren't met.

      The book notes: "At about 8:15 AM on October 24th, 2014, there was an explosion at Azar Distilling, strong enough to send a man flying through (yes— through) a wall. A small fire was started and it took Bexar County firefighters about 40 minutes to put out the flames. The worker was sent to the hospital, but sustained no injuries... but now he has a hell of a story. When he arrived on the scene, Trey Azar feared he'd lost everything. To lighten the mood, the volunteer firefighters suggested that he rename the brand "Cinco Fuego." Through sheer force of will, they re-opened just 95 days after the blast. Proudly hailing from San Antonio, Trey and Kimberly Azar started Azar Distiling in 2010 named after (kinda) their five children. ... Azar Distilling is in the process of expanding, not just the scope of the brands, but the distillery itself. Cinco Vodka and Seersucker Gin are now available at most major liquor stores throughout Texas, Ten-nessee, Arkansas, Massachusetts, Oklahoma, and Rhode Island."

    2. Rindfuss, Bryan (2011-04-06). "Fiesta's New Spirit". San Antonio Current. p. 38. ProQuest 865334215.

      The article notes: "Fiesta A-listers should plan on seeing (and/or drinking) locally distilled Cinco Vodka at some of the season's most exclusive celebrations- The King's Ball, The Queen's Ball, The Order of the Alamo Garden Party, and The Town Club Party among them. ... Other than the amber wheat (which is shipped to Texas from Idaho), Cinco owes its "clarity, cleanliness, and unsurpassed smoothness" to Texas and the Edwards Aquifer, water from which is naturally filtered through Cordova Cream limestone and further refined by reverse osmosis before being added to the spirit in the final stages of production."

      The article notes: "That’s right — one of the country’s best and most-respected vodkas is distilled right here in San Antonio. It’s Cinco vodka, produced with non-GMO wheat, distilled in a hand-hammered copper still with no filtration. Founter Trey Azar maintains that a well-made vodka doesn’t need filtering."

      The article notes: "As many great ideas do, this one started with scribbling on a cocktail napkin. Four years later, Trey Azar and family’s Azar Distilling has earned a stellar reputation with Cinco Vodka. It was named a top 10 vodka at the 2013 New York Ultimate Beverage Challenge and awarded gold for best vodka (usually snagged by European brands) at the Los Angeles International Spirits Competition. Production since the distillery opened in 2011 has increased 10-fold with its four-person team (and some part-time help) now creating 10,000 cases a year that are sold throughout the state."

    5. McInnis, Jennifer (2011-03-30). "San Antonio's Cinco Vodka poised to take on big boys". San Antonio Express-News. Archived from the original on 2011-04-02. Retrieved 2025-04-26.

      The article notes: "Packaged in an attractive bottle with five blue stars across the center, Cinco Vodka is produced at a distilling facility in Southeast Bexar County. ... Cinco Vodka is purchasing an automated bottling machine that can bottle versatile sizes and shapes, leaving the company's options open for other products it might develop in the future. There's also space in the facility to hold 12 tanks."

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Azar Distilling and Cinco Vodka to pass Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Primary criteria, which requires "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject".

I question the reliability of the sources you mentioned; they aren't listed on the reliable/perennial sources list. Also, the articles themselves don't seem to be unbiased; they seem to be borderline puff pieces/human interest stories. Besides, see WP:SOLVE it is not my job to write an entire article to make something not be AfD. Let's examine the sources more closely, though. The first one is a mention in passing. The rest are human interest sources from local papers, which are not reliable (not mentioned in list, again.) Fails WP:RS, and subsequently no WP:SIGCOV in reliable sources. The articles you're referencing also seem to be opinion pieces, which we have to attribute and be careful with when citing sources. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 23:32, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I consider these sources to all be reliable. Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources says, "Only sources that have been repeatedly raised for discussion are listed here, it is not a general or comprehensive list of all generally reliable or unreliable sources in the world, it is a summarization of discussions about the listed sources." These sources are not listed there because they have not been repeatedly raised for discussion. The sources are all independent of the subject. That they contain positive commentary about the subject does not detract from their reliability. The Cider Mill Press book is a strong source that discusses Azar Distilling, the company that makes the Cinco Vodka brand. I recommend broadening the article to be about Azar Distilling as Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Products and services says, "In cases where a company is mainly known for a single series of products or services, it is usually better to cover the company and its products/services in the same article. This article can be the name of the company or the name of its product, depending on which is the primary topic." Cunard (talk) 07:27, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is an inappropriate content fork and fluffery (fluffing up something to give the appearance of much more substance than it actually has
To be honest, I’m still unclear about what exactly constitutes 'inappropriate content,' but I don’t believe the term 'Fluffery' applies here. The Luhansk Oblast campaign spans approximately 130 km of frontline combat and is currently fragmented into three fronts (Kupyansk, Borova, and Lyman)[33]. If you think this page is purely 'Fluffery,' then you are mistaken
It takes this version of units in the infobox at Luhansk Oblast campaign (six or less units on each side) and pads it out by using a tree structure - which is misleading if all of a formation is not supported as participating.
I didn’t copy-paste from the old version you mentioned because the references there were too outdated (2022-2023). I also didn’t add units without checking. Like, you can see almost all my references are from November 2024 at the latest. If you don’t believe, go check the references one by one to see if those units were really involved.
It also uses MOS:FLAGCRUFT and is decorative rather than encyclopedic. Some of the structure is probably assumed from WP articles rather than being sourced
Also, I’m still confused why I violated MOS:FLAGCRUFT. If you could explain, I’d really appreciate it. Bukansatya (talk) 09:35, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I believe that you’re using the term “inappropriate content fork” very loosely, as this article, simply put, is not inappropriate and serves a useful purpose. Like Bukansatya explained above, the campaign is across a 130km frontline across 3 main fronts. As it is already, these fronts have lots of units involved as all 3 fronts are focal points of Russian offensive operations.
As well as that, I think that your accusation of “fluffery” is being done in assuming bad faith. As I said, it is a large front with many, many units involved on both sides. There is nothing wrong with listing all of the involved units, as that is the entire purpose of an order of battle article; to list all of the involved units when the list is too large for a regular info box. On top of that, all of these units are cited directly from the ISW, which the article’s citations prove (I just checked the cited sources). And adding onto all of this, the article’s structure is completely fine as it is. It is a standard dot point list, with no “fluffery” and any extra details or anything of that nature to try and inflate the size.
This article also lies exactly in line with other order of battle articles (example: Pokrovsk offensive order of battle), effectively identical, with the only differences being the actual individual units and the locations. If you are going to nominate this article for deletion based on the reasons you provided, you should treat all other articles meeting the same standards equally.

To me this is a pretty clear WP:GNG fail. The sources cited are either self-published or not reliable, and I can find very little independent coverage of the subject. For example, the Forbes article cited in this article has the disclaimer "The pages slugged ‘Brand Connect’ are equivalent to advertisements and are not written and produced by Forbes India journalists" at the bottom.

Blutonium is German DJ. The article was nominated for deletion in 2008 and kept based on this source, which seems notable but doesn't have WP:SIGCOV. The other sources I found are: [34], [35], [36]. This self-published book mentions him in a list of hardstyle djs. German Music Archive doesn't give anything. It feels notable but notable sources couldn't be found.

  • Keep A quick search of google scholar shows this IDE was (is?) commonly used in college instructional programs. Some articles compare its pedagogical value to much larger IDEs like eclipse. Google scholar even asked to correct Dr Java to drjava, so it seems its a fairly common term. Sourcing deserves a closer look, but as WP:NSOFT is an essay, not a guideline, I will invoke WP:PRESERVE here and suggest this be kept in the absence of accepted deletion rationale + the availability of academic sources for improvement.

  • Delete There are a couple of sources and how-to books available that go into some depth about programming in ruby for distributed computing. However, notability is still weak as this program does not appear to be widely used for teaching and remains fairly niche. From an encyclopedic standpoint, there is not much more to say than this is a thing for distributed computing in ruby. Additional commentary appears likely to veer into how-to territory or a too-detailed look at the underpinnings of distributed ruby and wikipedia aims to do neither of these things.

  • Keep Currently the only rationale is violating WP:NSOFT which is an essay not a guideline. The original conference paper for this programming tool[41] (when it was named openjava) has been cited 293 times according to google scholar. There are additional sources indicating this has been the topic of instruction in university courses. It appears to be subject of focus in some schools at least: [42]] which could mean it "passes" NSOFT despite the delete votes claiming otherwise. Given WP:PRESERVE and the lack of appropriate deletion rationale, this article should be kept until better research is done in favor of deletion at the very least.
