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

Article has been previously speedily deleted under WP:CSD#A10 as a duplicate article of NCAA Division I men's lacrosse records. The article re-created again by the same creator in the exact same state it was in prior to deletion (including apparently the CSD#A10 tag, which has been in the article since the very first edit). The creator then contested the CSD that they themselves nominated the article for.

At first glance the content of the article appears to be all duplicated, but looking closely there are some very slight differences in the content of the tables. It seems that this list is supposed to be a more general list of all college lacrosse records, while the existing NCAA Division I men's lacrosse records is only for records that occurred under the NCAA - but obviously there is significant overlap.

If the additions do indeed turn out to be notable per WP:NLIST, then the question should be whether we need an article that is almost a duplicate, or if the scope of the existing NCAA Division I men's lacrosse records should be expanded to allow inclusion of the new information. RachelTensions (talk) 21:04, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It should also be noted that the article title currently does not follow WP:AT conventions and the whole lead paragraph is written in an unencyclopedic manner.RachelTensions (talk) 21:05, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Anyway. It's presently still a CFORK of NCAA Division I men's lacrosse records. College lacrosse is played outside of North America though. A single article for all NCAA records alone would breach WP:Article size, and an article that also included records for college lacrosse in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, etc. would be even bigger. Keeping the records in separate articles will be just fine, perhaps with a template to link them all. I'm happy to provide and maintain the template.

Docere (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

This article appears to fall outside of Wikipedia's scope, particularly the principle that Wikipedia is not a dictionary. The page exists entirely to document the usage of this one Latin word, a goal best covered by Wiktionary, not Wikipedia. According to Wikipedia's policy on the matter, such an entry requires information "beyond what would be found in a dictionary entry" and "information on the social or historical significance of the term." The article attempts to fulfill this requirement by citing quotes from Cicero about rhetoric, but these examples are largely unrelated to the actual word "docere" and are more relevant to the Ciceronian understanding of oration. Such information belongs more in a separate article about rhetoric or Cicero or oration than it does its own stand-alone article. Consider how Wikipedia has an article on Sexuality in ancient Rome but does not have a distinct article for the Latin verb "amare." Even the verb "delectare," despite being mentioned within the same context of Cicero describing the duties of rhetoric, does not have its own article, only a redirect.

This article seems to be almost entirely WP:OR about a term so rarely used that it appears to have meant something different every time it was used, with no discernible concept behind it. Choucas Bleu (T·C) 17:10, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This source assessment table is based on this version of the article: [6]. References were added to the article while I was assessing the sources, and I revised the table. The addition of more sources was not material.
As noted above, there is an extensive history, which includes previous versions of articles on the subject, as well as redirects, and an article about a fictional person. This article should be cut down to a redirect. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:49, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
User:Robert McClenon: I'm sorry, but I don't think this reflects the reality of some of the sources in the article. Comments below.
1. Agreed.
2. Mostly an interview, but also covers other material, which I'd argue is secondary. Described above.
3. No, the wiki link follows the norm for how we cover press material, same as other sources in the article – the name of the publication is linked. Not the name of the article, which is an offline source (or accessible though sv:Mediearkivet). Not all sources are online sources. This is nine pages in Dagens Industri, mostly but not only interview material. Described above. Can be checked by pretty much anyone with a Swedish university account (or access to Mediearkivet, provided to some editors by Wikimedia Sweden). As noted above, I've not been able to locate the online equivalent.
4. Agreed.
5. Disagree. Unlikely this is merely a press release, for four reasons: a) Unlike Cision, Dagens Media does produce journalism, which merits that we take a closer look; b) it's the same day as the press release in 4., but with different content, noting things which were not present in that press release c) it's signed (Eva Wisten), d) it contains material unlikely to have been in a press relase, such as noting that he'll "be on paternal leave and think". This reads like a reaction to the press release in 4., but someone actually having written an article based on other sources.
6. Definitely not. This is an article, takes up most of a page in the leading Swedish financial newspaper, and doesn't read at all like a press release to me. Why do you think it would be one?
7. Agreed.
8. Agreed.
9. Agreed.
10. Uncertain. Not terribly interesting as a source anyway.
11. Agreed.
12. Agreed.
13. Agreed.
14. (In the current version.) Missing. Added before this was posted, but after the assessment, I suppose.
Could you please explain your reasoning around 2, 3, 5 and 6? /Julle (talk) 02:36, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On ref 2 it does say the Pallas met him for conversation. I can't read it fully as paywalled, but it does look an interview. scope_creepTalk 06:47, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. "Much of this is interview material, but not all of it", I wrote above, and then "Mostly an interview, but also covers other material, which I'd argue is secondary" in the comment to the source assessment above. (: /Julle (talk) 11:12, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The other material is likely provided by the PR agency. It put the reference in the context of a interview and can't be used to prove notability. It not a valid. scope_creepTalk 13:51, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On Ref 5 it reads a profile generated from a press-release. That fact that its bylined doesnt add much to it. It reads like a 300 word profile and is not in-depth. scope_creepTalk 06:52, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Since we have a press release from exactly the same day (4.), that would mean that they'd sent out two different press releases on the same topic, with different information (since much of the background in 5. is missing in 4.). To me, that seems much more unlikely than a journalist taking a look at the press release in 4. and writing something based on other sources than the press release (since it contains information not in the press release in 4).
(It's still not a longer piece, no.) /Julle (talk) 11:14, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That looks and reads like conjecture, is not indepth and is not valid. scope_creepTalk 13:51, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On Ref 3. The reference format is fine. This is a financial paper similar to Bloomberg and the Financial Times. Its is likely paid PR. scope_creepTalk 06:55, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not intimately familiar with Bloomberg and the Financial Times, but this is the main article in this issue of the newspaper. I find it extremely unlikely that this would be paid PR, that's not how Dagens Industri works and they'd completely resign their position as the dominating financial newspaper in Sweden if they presented paid material as journalism. Why would we assume it's paid PR? /Julle (talk) 11:17, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Because that is mechanism used to market themselves. Billionaires and millionaire are extraordinary secretive, they don't like their business dealing and their private lifes being made pubic, generally speaking. They build a public facade, their brand in the modern era using PR agencies so they are always shown in a good light. That is known thing. Lastly, its not necessarily paid material as journalism. You need to read up on it. All papers take the marketing dollar, more so since the coming of social media when it the industry was absolutely eviscerated, more or less right across the world from about 2007-2008. Its recovered now because many of them are behind paywalls and legislation that has come in to protect the industry but for many years, journalism as a practice was hit very badly. So the boundary between real journalism and all this other "crap" that came in was blurred and they used that money to effectively save their industry. Real journalism is making a return but for certain things like this, you don't know if its paid for. You really have to look, particularly for this type of source. So it could be potentially be a good reference right enough, but its hard to verify and I'm not confident considering the subject matter, that its not been paid for. scope_creepTalk 13:51, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. In Sweeden he is more relevant on the media and film industry, but at an internatiional level he is more known for business and political involvements.

I am the author of the article, so my voice doesn't count here, but since I was mentioned in the comments, I would like to share my thoughts. Firstly, Antsiferov is mentioned in several articles (for example, in relation to the State Duma elections and the case involving the Kremlin's attempt to sue him), both of which are quite high-profile and have been covered by many reputable media outlets. Secondly, he is the author of well-known textbooks in Russia, which are used by students at elite Russian universities (MGIMO, MSU). Madrugador88 (talk) 08:36, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Madrugador88 Oh your voice does count please, that's not how it works. The relationship to the State Duma elections and the case involving the Kremlin's attempt to sue him did not provide sufficient coverage to pass GNG. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:43, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In order for the textbooks to help towards Wikipedia:AUTHOR, they would need to be the subject of multiple independently published book reviews. For them to lead us to Wikipedia:Notability (academics), we'd need to see that they are being used by a large number of colleges and universities, with evidence for that (for example, if the publisher has put up a list of textbook adoptions).

it lacks sufficient independent, secondary sources to meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines.

She is only discussed by reliable, independent sources in the context of the Mute R. Kelly movement, which she founded. Even the awards she won are all in relation to this movement. The only source I could find that was not related to the R Kelly stuff was this puff piece, which was published at the same time that she had gotten a PR company to publish this other puff piece that looks the same. In fact, most sources that talk about her art career are either not independent or look like very routine annoucements. We would do better by leaving this as a redirect to Mute R. Kelly.

Well, here we are again already, as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Layover was closed as a soft delete just a few days ago. This was undeleted to be draftified, which is fine, but then it was restored to mainspace without actually being improved. Some alleged new sources were added, but the actual content was not improved at all, so this still has the exact same issues and is just a repost of the same article with some potential sources that clearly have no actually been used at all, tacked on to the bottom. I'm not seeing what the rush was to get this WP:DICDEF article back into mainspace. Just Step Sideways from this world ..... today 18:30, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep. The article is borderline. The problem is not in the lack of non-dictionary sources (there are plenty based on my experience), but in the fact that "layover" in different industries has different meanings. While related, the common definition would be very vague ("scheduled downtime in transit"?). Other than that, the layover in mass transit is meant to compensate for schedule slips and accommodate the driver's trip to the bathroom, while in air travel the layover is intended for the passenger to change the plane or the mode of travel. As a thought experiment, I would have no problem writing either Layover (mass transit) and Layover (long-distance travel). So my proposal is to create these two articles and change the one subject to this AfD into a disambiguation. --Викидим (talk) 21:47, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    There are aspects to long-distance travel layovers that are about accommodating the needs of crews and equipment, not just passengers. I'd argue the approach would be to flesh this article out and if the differences warrant two articles down the road, then WP:SPLIT. —Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 13:39, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I did not find a single source that treats layovers for buses and planes as a single subject, thus the proposal. Without such source, we might be forced to rely on WP:OR for a common definition in the lead, and it might be lame (see my attempt above and the definition already in the lead). Викидим (talk) 18:18, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The massive amount of coverage meeting WP:GNG should have been investigated WP:BEFORE AFD. Such as the Washington Post and New York Times citations I just added to the article. PK-WIKI (talk) 21:54, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    What I am not seeing in any of the sources in the article or elsewhere is anything that suggests a layover is an encyclopaedic subject rather than an English word. For instance, the very first reference, used to support the opening sentence of the lead is an article in the Seattle Ties headlined Long layover? How about a workout at an airport gym?. Now we know that SIGCOV counts even if the article is not about the the encyclopaedic subject, as long as the subject gets significant coverage in the article; in this article we have coverage about what to do on a layover. But because Wikipedia is not a dictionary, it cannot be the case that a source provides significant coverage merely because an article uses the proposed subject as an English noun. And to use that article and others like it to try to define a layover looks like WP:OR. Worse, the OR is wrong in identifying a layover with a waypoint - hardly an exact synonym.
    So, what sources do we have that suggest layovers are an encyclopaedic subject? I think there is no doubt this page needs change. Is that change deletion? Is it actually more than one subject per Викидим? Cunard moved it back to mainspace without improvement to preserve incoming redirects, but that did not preclude that they felt improvement was necessary. What exactly is the encyclopaedic subject here, and what sources speak to that? Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:49, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The Associated Press article you mention discusses airports now being designed to accommodate long layovers with attractive amenities. That's an encyclopedic topic related to the evolution of airline travel, not a dictionary definition. This facet has already been added to the article.
    The New York Times has covered the trend of "international airlines adding free stopovers and other incentives to make the midway hub a second destination." The Times has been covering Iceland's use of this technique to boost tourism in the country since at least 1967.
    Adventurous travelers make use of their few hours in a country to go on an abbreviated tour of the best sites and restauraunts. The travel hack is notable enough that Anthony Bourdain filmed a TV show named for and dedicated to the concept.
    Lots of encyclopedic content here. PK-WIKI (talk) 08:33, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Lots of encyclopedic content here. I don't think I agree. Things to do on a layover cannot be the encyclopaedic subject of a layover itself. And that is the problem with sourcing to a bunch of news media articles or travel guides. I think we need to take a step back and consider the information need of a reader. What would someone be searching for if they were searching for "layover"? What is the encyclopaedic subject that informs and educates, beyond the simple dictionary definition of what a layover is? Your last link may hint at something, but it is not itself the source for it. Is there a subject around designed-in layovers as a means for breaking travel, perhaps linked to regeneration or the importance of the layover hubs themselves? Examples come to mind from antiquity onwards on that. Can we find some good secondary sources that discuss that? And if that is the subject, are we sure that layover, and not some other term (such as stopover) correctly describes the subject? I am not saying there is no subject here. There may well be one. But the page as it is just looks like a glorified dictionary definition, so that scope needs a bit of thought and better sourcing. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 09:35, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I've added several bits about how layovers impact passenger choice and airline operations to the air travel section, including academic studies. I think it's clear that from the beginning layover would meet WP:N even if the article wasn't up to that standard, sources exists to improve the article (as has now been done). For those reasons, keeping it in mainspace for improvement is the right move rather than deletion. (I'd also disagree that even in its at-nomination state it was a "glorified dictionary definition"; a stub or poor start, sure, but it included more than simple definitions.) —Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 13:34, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    In the Sources section, there are couple sources (books) that contain reasonably lengthy treatises on the subject, for a total of about two printed pages. There are many more very solid sources on the subject, as it is pretty important for transportation industry planners. I am not sure we need to use the mass media in the article at all, but we definitely are not relying on newspapers for WP:SIGCOV here. Викидим (talk) 18:12, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Three Men and a Baby (franchise) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Similar to Rosemary's Baby discussion as a franchise here, I can not find much to apply WP:SIGCOV which addresses the topic of this series in detail (see WP:SIGCOV "addresses the topic directly and in detail") as well as MOS:FILMSERIES which suggests "an article would also benefit from coverage that discusses the series as a whole, or at least commentators who compare later films to their predecessors".

While there has been a lot of effort and work to put this together sources within the article are either about individual topics (Rotten Tomatoes, MetaCritic, the Numbers, etc.). Of the few that discuss the films with a bit more depth, they primarily discuss the first film, with no oversight or commentary on it as a series outside a mention of a sequel.

On my own research to try to expand the article, it was similarly limited to usually a single sentence with no signifigant coverage. Overviews just state the first film received sequels and remakes, with no commentary on the topic. This is seen in articles like Empire here or Yahoo! Life here While I looked through pages of google books to find information on it as a franchise or series, it had similar results (either in relation to the careers of Nimoy, in context of Hollywood remaking American films here (University of California Press), or the first film for various historical reasons (place in 80s cinema, etc.) here (Rutgers University Press), here), and again, even these were very brief mentions of even just the first film. Placing the films name into searches into the Wikipedia Library or Google Scholar predominantly have articles about Hollywood Remaking the first film as a franchise here, or others going into detail on the how the first film treats masculinity in film, and other gender studies topics.

Content within the article and on my own predominantly discusses the first film either in the context of popular hollywood films of the 1980s, the career of the actors and director Leonard Nimoy (with only brief mentions to the series),

    • Den of Geek here, while it seems less like a news blurb and a proper retrospective, is mostly comparing the French-language film that inspired it, and the original hit film. There isn't any information/content/reception about the follow-ups or the film as a franchise/series.
  • Other sources that go more into detail such as Eighties Kids appears to not pass WP:REPUTABLE ("a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy"), it appears to be an extension of a popular Facebook nostalgia page.

The article in its current state might even fail MOS:FILMSERIES which states "A film series article should only be created when the series encompasses at least three films [...] Exceptions may include franchise articles where films are one of several notable and interrelated components (TV series, comics, etc.)." The "Baby Daddy" series does not appear to be related to the films in any coroporate way with the article only stating it was "inspired" by it. The article on the series itself makes no mention of its relation to the films or series. On trying to find a connection myself, I only found the LA Times calling the series derivative of the film, not connected (LA Times: here. The State Journal-Reigster here) Seemingly not different than lets say My Baby's Daddy, which also seems unrelated. here. (Daily Collegian). Or from the article itself withBitch Media which goes into detail comparing to the two works, but makes no suggestion on any canonical or business acumen that they are realted in-universe or through ownership of the brand.

The rest of the article generally rehashes the history of the plots of individual works with critical citations going only towards the film themselves MOS:FILMSERIES suggests above. Without comparisons. This may fall under WP:UNDUE as we have a lack of "depth of detail, the quantity of text, prominence of placement, the juxtaposition of statements, and the use of imagery. In articles relating to a minority viewpoint, such views may receive more attention and space."

Please note, that voting keep or delete on this is not in relation to whether a series exists or not, its whether there is enough discussion from the sources in question to currently make this an article that follows our guidelines. Andrzejbanas (talk) 18:03, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Additional comment Also, if Baby Daddy did somehow become a part of this 'franchise' you invented (as the article creator)...then its credits would not have only included a 'based on' credit for Coline Serreau, but the original American writers Jim Cruickshank and James Orr would have also not only gotten the same credits, but likely executive producer credits and profit participation. The Hollywood unions are very strict on making sure any idea based on another work gets those originators credits, and the ideas for both the films and the series are very different, especially in headcount. The only two things they share are literally having "Baby" in the title and common library ownership. That's it. Nate (chatter) 01:11, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The sources so far don't do a good job of establishing Baby Daddy as being part of the same franchise, only as having a similar premise. The remake hasn't entered production, and the last update was in 2022. We're not really hitting MOS:FILMSERIES, and I don't think a set index makes sense for two extant works. hinnk (talk) 07:21, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The previous AFD mentioned some offline sources, but they are not accessible for verification and the descriptions of these do not seem substantive (e.g. among brief quotes from art dealers, not biographical coverage).

As a member of the Toronto City Council, Amer would probably pass the notability criteria above. That being said, the sourcing does seem a little anemic, but AFD is not cleanup.

  • Weak keep - I scoured the internet looking for sources to support notability, and found almost nothing regarding her political career or biography. What I found Amer is most noted for is her advocacy on behalf of Toronto Island residents. In fact, she appeared to be the longstanding "go to" person for media comments and insight about residents on the island. As such, she is quoted over and over again. Many of these sources have been included in her article. As well, in his book Witness to a City, former Toronto mayor David Miller devoted the entire first chapter to profiling Amer. Is Amer "worthy of notice", per WP:BIO, I'm leaning toward "yes". Magnolia677 (talk) 10:23, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Article could use some improvement — but given that her time in office ended 30 years ago, that would entail digging into archives, not just casually grazing Google — but WP:NPOL most certainly does accept (and always has accepted) members of the municipal councils of major, internationally prominent global cities like Toronto. And since I have searched on her before, and just didn't start the article myself due to lack of personal knowledge since I didn't live in Toronto until after she'd been succeeded by Dan Leckie, trust me that the sourcing needed to improve this does exist in databases like ProQuest. (Yeah, and David Miller's book too, which will be added to the article as a source as soon as I'm done reading through what it says about her in the copy I've already pulled off my bookshelf.)

  • KEEP I Believe the high quality sources cited, and the in-depth information featured in those articles absolutely meet the requirements for inclusion (hence the reason I went ahead and created this article). There is in-depth and significant coverage. Also: You can see just by searching "2024 Karachi Bombing" on Google. You can see that there are still significant sources covering and updating the event a day later (even ABC[1] and CNN, and BBC, AP, etc) it would only make sense to create a Wikipedia article so that people have the facts from various sources in one place. The event is notable, it was a terrorist attack on an airport the same airport that suffered an attack 10 years prior.
You initially moved this article from the Main-space into a draft, because "more sources needed", as you said both on the revision, and on my Talk Page, and I believe the sources I linked more than suffice, (respectfully). Gonzafer001 (talk) 17:50, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment there are attacks that have killed 10+ or 20+ people in Pakistan that did not receive lasting coverage - in fact, most of them. Pakistan has so much terrorism that any one attack receiving lasting coverage is incredibly slim, especially one this low profile. They all blow up in the news, are mentioned for two days, then never covered again. Event notability is maintained by LASTING coverage, not just coverage. PARAKANYAA (talk) 19:58, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • REPLY - I see where you are coming from, but this incident - involving an already designated and known Terrorist group Balochistan Liberation Army where they carried out an attack on Chinese investors and engineers is definitely something worth inclusion, Wikipedia is not about whether its editors support or not-support an article, it whether it's a good fit for the main-space. - Two people died in this attack which had targeted a "high-level target", even the The Chinese Embassy confirmed that the "high level convoy" included staff members from the Port Qasim Electric Power Company, a coal-powered plant developed through a joint venture between China and Pakistan.[2]
The Pakistan Ministry of Foreign Affairs even labeled this Bombing as a "Heinous Terrorist Attack"
- Heinous "hatefully or shockingly evil : abominable. heinously adverb. heinousness noun."
The Balochistan Liberation Army terror group has 3000 fighters, they themselves have a Wikipedia page.
Though two people were killed, and 10 were injured-- There is zero question that this incident is notable, it falls under the realm of WP:SIGCOV as I have attached reliable sources of which covered the story in-depth WP:DEPTH and from a neutral point-of-view--I even went ahead and attached News outlets from WP:DIVERSE regions such as Al Jazeera, BBC, CNN, Fox News, etc, all International sources outside the WP:GEOSCOPE. All of which are reliable enough to be included on Wikipedia themselves.-- Also for WP:SIGCOV: This article does not assume, it has only listed the facts that are known, including the fact that the separatist group claimed responsibility and that their target was a high value person. This event also shows proof of WP:PERSISTENCE, obviously news stories won't run forever but this specific event has been getting continuous coverage since the story broke-- News outlets are even doing more than one article on the event.
We have had 24 hours, the dust had settled already WP:DELAY is un-needed, hence the reason I had added WP:BREAKING to the header--We have enough info for a stub, and obviously enough news has come out in the past 24-hours to add even more information to the article.
But I do understand where you are coming from and I RESPECT it, but we should definitely keep this on the mainspace -- or at-least consider WP:RAPID Gonzafer001 (talk) 21:17, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Gonzafer001 Many of the previous attacks have gotten far more attention than this, also involving the same factors you mentioned, and almost all failed to sustain lasting coverage. Any breaking event is going to have sigcov when it happens. Attacks that have killed 20 people and have involved established terror groups often aren't notable because they don't get long term coverage! Pakistan specifically, their media rarely covers the specific individual incidents for long. In other countries it would make sense (though making breaking news articles it is a generally bad idea) but the pattern with Pakistan is overwhelmingly 99% of attacks there do not have lasting coverage due to the frequency, similarity, their security situation and their media ecosystem. They do not get the retrospective type articles that help notability in other cases. PARAKANYAA (talk) 21:21, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Báthory family (of the Aba clan) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article seems to be based primarily on original research, and the sources are genealogical papers and personal documents obtained by the article author (e.g. this source) that ultimately don't prove the existence of an independent Báthory family. They instead attempt to link the well-known Báthory to the Aba clan. As a conseuqence, the article is in parts written like an essay and by and large lacks reliable and secondary sources for key points in proving the existence of this family. One of the more crucial sources mentioned in the article, a book by Tibor Báthory-Szőny, is an apparent attempt by the author (a designer, according to everybodywiki, but not mentioned anywhere else) to personally link his own family to the Aba clan, which does this article no favors, as it certainly doesn't constitute a reliable source.
In addition to that, the article has already been discussed and deleted on huwiki (where one sysop felt confident enough calling it a "hoax", later looking through a physical copy of a source cited by the author and finding nothing on the topic) as well as on several more wikis, where it was variously deleted as a duplicate or a machine translation.

Probably an important addition for those who'd like to contribute to the AfD: the author has left some comments on the nomination on their own talk page instead of the article's. Hijérovīt | þč 19:29, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. The subject of the article is not hoax, there really was a Báthory (or Bátori) de Gagy family (from clan Aba), but it was not related to the well-known Báthory family (from clan Gutkeled). See this source [26]. However, I am not sure that the conclusions of the article are correct. According to Pál Engel's genealogical work, Miklós Sirokai came from another branch of the Aba clan. --Norden1990 (talk) 19:47, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I guess I can't speak on the factual existence of the family itself, but the article seems like more of an essay aimed at proving genealogical ties with questionable sourcing instead of a fact-of-the-matter article that paraphrases reliable sources. I believe it would at the very least have to be rewritten from the ground up to reflect firmly established knowledge on the lineage, which makes it as good as deleted.

You are completely wrong. However, I would like to present further evidence and academic references that underscore the separate identities and historical significance of these two families.
Distinction Between the two Báthory Families
1. Báthory Family from the Gutkeled Clan:
- This lineage traces its origins to two Swabian brothers, Gut and Kelad, who migrated to Hungary from the Stof castle, which is associated with either Staufen im Breisgau or Hohenstaufen in Württemberg.
- The Gutkeled Báthory family is traditionally divided into three branches: Somlyó, Ecsed, and Szaniszlófi. Each of these branches contributed to the political and social landscape of Hungary over the centuries, with significant figures such as Báthory István (Stephen Báthory), who served as the Prince of Transylvania and was elected King of Poland.
2. Báthory of Gagy Family from the Aba Clan:
- The second major Báthory lineage is linked to the Aba clan, descending from King Samuel Aba. This family also produced notable figures, including Miklós Báthory of Gágy (known also as Miklós of Siroka or Miklós Gereven) who was a vojvode of Transylvania from 1342-1344. [a. Herzoge. | Siebmacher: Wappenbuch | Reference Library (arcanum.com)] - The distinct genealogical [Archaeogenetic analysis revealed East Eurasian paternal origin to the Aba royal family of Hungary | bioRxiv] and historical narratives of the Aba Báthory family further illustrate their separate identity from the Gutkeled Báthory family.
Supporting Academic Sources
I would like to emphasize that the article under deletion also includes multiple academic sources and archive materials that provide evidence for the distinction between these families. Some of these sources include:
1. Acta Historica Academiae Scientiarum Hungaricae, Volume 45, pages 115-120. This academic article explores the Hungarian noble lineages, including the Báthory family of Gágy, and their role in the political history of the region.
2. - [Báthori család. (Gágyi). | Nagy Iván: Magyarország családai | Kézikönyvtár (arcanum.com)] this is from this book: Magyarország családai czimerekkel és nemzékrendi táblákkal – Wikipédia (wikipedia.org) I would like to point out that one of the most authoritative sources on Hungarian noble families is Nagy Iván's "Magyarország családai címerekkel" ("The Families of Hungary with Coats of Arms"). This book is widely recognized as the most accurate and comprehensive reference for Hungarian genealogies. The depth of research and the historical accuracy in this work make it an essential source for understanding the distinctions between the noble families, including the Báthory families of different origins. I recommend consulting this work for reliable information on the history of Hungarian nobility.
3. -[Báthory-Szőnyi Tibor: Noblesse oblige, Báthory-Szőnyi Tibor | Magyar Nemzeti Múzeum Központi Könyvtár (MNMKK) (hnm.hu) ]
[27]https://catalog.library.hnm.hu/en/record/-/record/MNMKVT351217 The book Noblesse Oblige, which is included in the collections of both the Hungarian National Museum and the British Library, provides detailed information on the Báthory of Gágy family. The author of the book is a direct descendant of the family, which adds a unique perspective and depth of knowledge to the historical account. This work is a valuable resource for understanding the lineage and distinct identity of the Báthory of Gágy, offering well-researched insights that support the differentiation between the Báthory families.
4. -[Sirokai család. (Sirokai †) | Nagy Iván: Magyarország családai | Reference Library (arcanum.com)][28]https://www.arcanum.com/hu/online-kiadvanyok/Nagyivan-nagy-ivan-magyarorszag-csaladai-1/tizedik-kotet-9475/sirokai-csalad-sirokai-9C84/ The genealogical table clearly shows that Miklós Báthory of Gágy is a descendant of Count Péter of Aba, lord of Szalánc. This lineage highlights the direct connection between the Báthory of Gágy family and the Aba clan, further supporting the distinct identity of this family in Hungarian noble history.
5. -[GAGYI LÁSZLÓ SÍRKÖVE. | Turul 1883-1950 | Kézikönyvtár (arcanum.com)][29]https://www.arcanum.com/hu/online-kiadvanyok/Turul-turul-1883-1950-1/1887-33C5/1887-3-3795/magyar-sirkovek-385B/gagyi-laszlo-sirkove-385C/ This article states that László, who was killed by the Turks, had a brother named Miklós, who served as the Voivode of Transylvania. Miklós's tombstone is one of the oldest known, and it features the ancient coat of arms of the Aba clan, providing important evidence of the family's lineage and noble heritage.

It is essential to recognize that until the two families are adequately distinguished in separate articles, any encyclopedic information regarding their contributions and historical contexts risks being conflated, potentially leading to misinformation. This is particularly evident in related articles, such as the one on Aba (gens), which inaccurately attributes aspects of the Aba Báthory family to the Gutkeled Báthory family.
I respectfully urge the administrators and editors involved in the deletion decision to review the sources and context provided. A comprehensive understanding of Hungarian history, particularly regarding noble lineages, is vital for maintaining the accuracy and integrity of the information presented on Wikipedia.
The attached sources are highly respected and academically credible, and they clearly support the distinctions outlined in this article. I encourage all editors to carefully review these references, as they provide well-researched evidence that is crucial for an accurate understanding of the Báthory families Kenessey Aurél (talk) 20:01, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. A perfect example of pure WP:OR. This would do better in a genealogical journal or forum, but WP is not the place for the author's original research and essay-like articles. --Greens vs. Blacks (talk) 15:27, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Dear Friend, The deletion of this article risks leaving significant inaccuracies about the Báthory families in the encyclopedia. There are two distinct Báthory lineages that are often mistakenly treated as one. This misunderstanding persists among the readers, which makes it crucial for Wikipedia to provide clear, well-differentiated information.
    The claim that this article is based on original research overlooks the fact that numerous credible academic and historical sources were used, including documents from respected archives and authoritative genealogical works! These references clearly indicate the separate identities and histories of the two Báthory families. The inclusion of sources like Nagy Iván's "Magyarország családai címerekkel" and studies from the Turul journal etc...provide well-documented evidence supporting the article's claims.
    By dismissing the carefully referenced content as "original research," we ignore the substantial historical groundwork that differentiates these families. Removing the article goes against Wikipedia's mission to present reliable, well-researched knowledge, especially on complex historical topics. A. Kenessey Kenessey Aurél (talk) 18:55, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I have taken the necessary steps to improve the article and align it with Wikipedia's standards. Specifically, I have removed all original sources from the article, even though many of these documents were relevant and provided interesting historical insights. This was done to ensure that the content adheres to Wikipedia's guidelines for verifiability and reliance on secondary sources.
By focusing solely on academic and secondary references, I hope the article now meets the standards expected for inclusion. I believe that this revision strengthens the article's credibility while retaining essential information about the Báthory families. Have a nice day! A.

Delete - This is an essay, not an encyclopedia article. Everyone knows in 2024 that we are an encyclopedia of notable topics, not a place to host your original research on genealogy. To claim ignorance is untenable. I’m not saying everyone knows about our arcane rules, but don’t play dumb here. We are not a place to prove or disprove anything - that’s the purpose of academic research! In addition, it is extensive and rambling, beyond the scope of its claims, and so poorly written that it would need to be started again to be considered an article. Bearian (talk) 09:14, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Bearian,
I understand the concerns expressed regarding the article, and I wish to address them comprehensively. First and foremost, I have taken significant steps to remove any original research, including personal documents, from the article. The current version is solely based on verified secondary and tertiary sources, many of which are academically recognized and cited in scholarly literature. These sources clearly establish the distinction between the two separate Báthory families, a topic that is frequently misunderstood, even in Hungary! It is indeed crucial that we maintain the encyclopedic quality of Wikipedia, which is why I have made every effort to improve the article’s reliability and focus. The argument that the article "proves" something is perhaps based on an outdated version, which may have given that impression due to the inclusion of original documents. These have since been removed, and the emphasis now lies on presenting well-documented historical information from reliable sources. As for the accusation that the article is "extensive and rambling," it is important to note that the Báthory families’ history is indeed complex, and to fully address the two distinct lineages requires a degree of detail that helps avoid conflating them, which is already a widespread problem in many related sources. Simplifying this could easily lead to further misconceptions and inaccuracies. Finally, I would like to reiterate that Wikipedia serves as an encyclopedia that strives to provide accurate information about notable historical topics. The confusion between the Báthory families and the importance of their distinct identities certainly qualifies as such a topic. Deleting the article would contribute to a lack of understanding regarding these two lineages, and potentially perpetuate the misinformation that this article was attempting to clarify. My goal is not to "prove" anything through original research but to document verifiable history that has been overlooked or misunderstood.
Kind regards,

As a note to Hijérovīt  : I would like to mention that Tibor Báthory-Szőnyi has proven his direct descent from the Báthory of Gágy family to the Hungarian Government Office's Department of Internal Affairs and Civil Registration, which is why he was able to restore the Báthory name in a legal procedure in 2023. According to Hungarian laws, historical names can only be adopted if the applicant can authentically prove their descent through civil, church, and archival documents.[3][4] The reason you couldn't find any sources about him online is that he was previously known as Tibor Szőnyi, among other roles, as the curator and director of the Budapest Opera Gallery [5][6].

I would like to present this rebuttal to refute the claims made by editor Norden:
Norden: Why it is impossible that Nicholas Sirokai was the ancestor of the Gagyi family:
  • Nicholas Sirokai had several siblings: George, John, Ladislaus, Michael, and Peter, which is a different list than Gagy's owners. My response: Check the genealogical table of the Báthory of Gagy family; you’ll find those names match.[33] In 1323, By the order of King Charles, Gereven's sons (Lawrence, Nicholas and Michael, the same names as on the family tree) [34] and royal officials surveyed and separated the Gagy estates from the neighboring properties. Gereven was born around 1285, he would have been 38 years old, and his sons could have been around 20. The chronicle states Gereven died before 1358, meaning he lived to 70-73 years old, which is plausible.
  • Norden: Sirokai is first mentioned in 1330 when his father and siblings exchanged Szalánc for estates in Sáros County with William Drugeth. [27] p. 331. My response: This information is correct and further supports the story of the Báthory family, even on the 1678 family tree, which confirms this event.
  • Norden: Nicholas Sirokai was granted ius gladii (pallosjog) over the Jobbágy estate in 1344: see [28], Weisz B.: A királyketteje és az ispán harmada, p. 209. My response: Yes, this is true, and it reflects his high status, which is expected for a voyvode.
  • Norden: He was frequently called Sirokai or Jobbágyi, just like his son Peter. [29] p. 197. My response: Nicholas Gereven called sometimes Sirokai from the estate Siroka of his father. His father Peter of Szalánc also appears in some documents as Peter of Siroka. Voyvode Nicholas had a son Nicholas II, whose son was Peter, according to the family tree.[35] This fits perfectly within the 1365 timeline.
  • Norden: Nicholas Sirokai was still living in 1355 (DF 212 693) and died sometime before 1358: [30]. My response: He would have been around 65-73 years old when he died, which is within a reasonable age range.
  • Norden: Gereven, as an alternative name for Nicholas Sirokai, is a mere fabrication. Gereven is only mentioned once in 1285, and by the 1320s, his sons appear as "sons of Gereven," implying his death by then. If Gereven were identical to Nicholas Sirokai, the latter would have been around 100 years old when he died, which is improbable, given his active role in the royal court in the 1350s (see Engel's archontology 1996). My response: Without source this is a hypothesis with no supporting evidence. Nicholas Sirokai is included on the genealogical table of the Sirokai family stating that he is the founder of the Báthory line [36]
Final Explanation:
The evidence overwhelmingly supports that Nicholas Sirokai and the Gagyi lineage are interconnected.The concrete evidence attesting to this family is the family tree created in 1678, and lists the names from 1303 to 1678 along with the clearly legible inscription located in its lower section.[37] The genealogical details match across documents and timelines, and the suggestion that Gereven was a separate, unrelated figure is speculative at best. Without definitive proof to the contrary, the reasonable and logical conclusion is that Nicholas Sirokai also called Gereven (Greven or Comes) are part of the same extended family, fitting into the broader narrative of the Báthory of Gagy and the Szalánci family lineage.
If this were a legal matter, the court would favor the evidence-backed version of events over assumptions and hypothetical arguments. Kenessey Aurél (talk) 12:49, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I must fundamentally disagree with you. Your version contains numerous inaccuracies, with László Gagyi's tombstone being a prime example. The original tombstone reads MCCCXXXII.[1] The scholars you cited explain this by suggesting that the engraver likely forgot to carve the letter "L" or perhaps the letter "C"—claims that are, frankly, quite weak. The 1330 document, whose text and essence match word for word with the 1678 family tree, is also dismissed by you as a mistake, despite Gábor Bertóthy presumably knowing his family lineage going back centuries, just as other families from the same branch did. Even the names of the descendants are recorded on the family tree from 1303 to 1678,[2] yet you claim he was mistaken. The genealogical table is deemed incorrect, despite being verified by Orbán Pál, the chief notary. You are constructing suppositions that do not align with the concrete facts. To me, this borders on trolling. If you don’t mind, let's leave it at that, as you suggested, and not continue arguing. I believe in the work of Iván Nagy, Joseph Csoma and Siebmacher and the authenticity of the original documents, while you prefer the works of Körmendi, Engel, and others.
    These are my final arguments: I don't know how I can convince someone who doesn't want to accept the facts, but I will try once more. There are five prominent noble Hungarian families who have claimed for centuries that they descend from the Szalánc branch, and all of them have insisted in centuries, that the elder son of Peter, Lord of Szalánc, with name Miklós, who served as the Voyvode of Transylvania is the ancestor of the Gágyi and Báthory families. Every serious scholar, like Iván Nagy, was aware of this. Do you really think that all this five families were wrong? Only your theory is correct? This is quite unlikely. Look at the list and records of them:[16][17][18][19][20][21] Kenessey Aurél (talk) 18:37, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    This is a personal vendetta on your part because my arguments are much stronger, and you couldn't tolerate that. I hope there will be an editor who thoroughly reviews my arguments. Kenessey Aurél (talk) 20:17, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have not written anything offensive. We disagreed, and in response, you decided to delete the page instead of allowing others to weigh in. That is not fair! Kenessey Aurél (talk) 08:00, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Editors,
I kindly ask everyone to review the content of the article and the accompanying sources thoroughly. In my view, the contributors commenting on this matter are not well-prepared regarding the history of this noble family. There is only one editor who diverges from the opinions of well-known scholars such as Iván Nagy [38], József Csoma [39], and Siebmacher [40], offering speculative alternatives based on the work of contemporary researchers, which, in reality, have no verifiable foundation. Despite my reminder that the original family tree from 1678 is displayed in the Central Antiquarium in Budapest,[41] [42] with a detailed textual section in the lower part tracing the family’s origins, this fact seems to be disregarded. The family tree clearly states that Count Peter had six children, the eldest being Nicholas, who was also called Gereven, became the Voivode of Transylvania, and was the founder of the Báthory family. His other sons founded the Frichy (John) [43], Sirokai (George and Ladislaus)[44], Bertóthy (Michael)[45], and Hedry (Peter)[46] families. These families have, for centuries, documented their lineage accordingly, as recognized by historians such as Iván Nagy, József Csoma, Siebmacher, and others. Additionally, a book summarizing the material of the Diplomatic Archive also confirms this original family tree (page 331-332) [47] [48]. No greater evidence can be provided, and all other claims are mere assumptions. The removal of the page would once again result in the confusion between the two distinct Báthory families, one originating from the Gutkeled clan and the other from the Aba clan.

There is no evidence that this ward is notable. There is no evidence that a "suburb" called Sleaford exists, and it is not included in List of United Kingdom locations: Si-Sm#Sl. There are several references which appear to be fascinating books about the history of Newark's elections, but which do not appear to mention Sleaford ward. All I can find is that it exists as a ward electing one councillor to Newark Town Council. As explained in the rather confusing "Geography" section, it is not a ward for elections to the next level of government, Newark and Sherwood District: see 2023 Newark and Sherwood District Council election. There seems to be no accessible map showing the boundary of this ward. (The geog coords given lead to Bede House Lane, postcode NG24 1PY, which Mapit.com puts as being in Beacon ward for district council elections, but unfortunately Mapit.com does not mention wards at town council level).

As far as I can see, all we can verifiably say about "Seaford, Newark" is that is a ward electing one councilor to Newark Town Council, being one of 7 wards. That is not enough for a Wikipedia article.

The article Newark-on-Trent#Governance mentions the town council, stating that it has 18 councillors elected from 4 wards, with a reference to an archived 2011 source showing 5 wards. I suggest that paragraph should be updated to reflect the current situation, where there are 7 wards, perhaps showing the number of councillors per ward (ranges from 1 to 5), and that Sleaford, Newark-on-Trent (and probably the other wards) should redirect there.

List of most-followed Kick channels (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

WP:NLIST requires the subjects being listed to be discussed as a group in any significant depth by reliable sources. Although some sources have discussed Kick's channels collectively, those are all about the controversies and publicity stunts those creators have caused, not about their number of followers [53] [54] [55]. The abundance of coverage of WP:SENSATIONAL events that were designed by online celebrities for the exact purpose of gathering media attention is rarely a good argument for notability, and I doubt that this topic needs a stand-alone list considering that Kick (service) is already an article (which meets WP:NCORP mostly because of the coverage of said controversies to begin with). Badbluebus (talk) 19:48, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: This article is essentially the same as List of most-followed Instagram accounts, List of most-followed Twitch channels & List of most-followed TikTok accounts, so there is a precedent to allow these types of lists, this list serves a valuable purpose by documenting significant trends in an evident and impactful space. Claims that the list is “unmaintainable” due to dynamic follower numbers are not strong enough for deletion. Other Wikipedia pages regularly update stats like revenue, sales figures, or most-followed accounts, and the content remains relevant despite being dynamic. As a growing platform, Kick has generated significant media attention, and reliable sources regularly cover its top streamers. Listing the top 30 most-followed channels does not represent an indiscriminate collection of information; it focuses on the most popular accounts on one of the newest major streaming platforms, essential for cultural and media studies. The argument that Kick's controversies are the only notability factor ignores the clear public interest in tracking which creators hold the most followers. I agree that it needs better citations, but that will be fixed with time. I know that editors, including myself, will maintain and update this list as needed. A note about the last update date should address concerns about outdated information. Deleting this list would limit Wikipedia’s ability to document the evolution of social media platforms, especially those rising in relevance like Kick.JeanSegura (talk) 20:40, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Generally, we do not make deletion decisions based on what other lists (or articles) exist or do not exist on Wikipedia. The reason for this is that we're looking at this list's notability, not the notability of those other lists; those lists might be notable, or they might not, but the focus of this discussion is just this list. voorts (talk/contributions) 20:48, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I understand and agree with you that each list’s notability should be considered individually. However, it's important to note that this list meets the same standards as similar lists, which is why it meets the inclusion criteria based on its own notability. You will find media online that covers kick followers, just as it does for other platforms. Reliable sources such as "NBC News" have show their follower counts and impact. I really think that the notability of this list is okay, as the list is not merely about individual creators but about Kick's social impact. JeanSegura (talk) 21:17, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      The book review the film on pages 84–86 and mentions the film on pages 9, 10, 11, and 357. The book notes: "Commentary: Dinosaurs ... The Terrible Lizards is an unexpectedly polished-looking film, especially in light of the limited resources from which Wah Chang created it. The animation is skilled and the puppets are excellent, without exception. Chang managed to save some time and effort by fashioning more than one head which could be fitted onto the same body, thus converting a Triceratops into a Styracosaurus, then into a Monoclonius, then into a Chasmosaurus, and so on. This tactic helped allow him to parade a small smorgasbord of saurians across the screen, with no fewer than 13 different prehistoric species glimpsed or featured during the film's ten-minute run time. Throughout the film, Chang adds little touches that are unusual for an "educational" film, and that reflect the care he always brought to his art."

Gr 1–8—This lively, animated film shows the evolution of dinosaurs, iden tifies major types, and describes their physical characteristics. The terms are explained and defined to make them more understandable to younger students, and names are superimposed on the screen. In explaining the environment during the time of the dinosaurs, however, not enough information is included on the changes that took place on the earth, and only one theory about the ending of this period is provided. The organization of the material is clear. The only inconsistency is the inclusion of a fully evolved man and woman that are irrelevant to the time period of the film. An interesting film, useful for individual or group viewing."

      The abstract notes: "Dinosaurs, the Terrible Lizards (Revised) ($50), from AIMS Media, is a 10-minute videotape that features the locations of dinosaur finds on a world map; gives a very brief synopsis of the evolution of life on Earth; and focuses on showing, naming, and describing various types of dinosaur. This program is intended for children aged 7–13 years, is very appealing to children, but contains little scientific information."

      The review notes: "Although Dinosaurs...the Terrible Lizards will probably be viewed by only a few fortunate students in the junior high level science classes in the Los Angeles City Schools, its realistic cinematic monsters are as lifelike as any used in a major studio production. Largely a natural history documentary, the film was produced in color by Wah Chang, of "Projects Unlimited" fame, and animated by Douglas Beswick for the Los Angeles Board of Education, and brings to life most of the dinosaurs of the past. There are approximately twelve to fifteen different types of these beasts in the film, including Brontosaurus, Ceolophysis, Stegosaurus, Triceratops, Monoclonius, and the Tyranosaurus Rex. Narrated in laymen's terms, the film explains the general lifecycle of dinosaurs and why they became extinct. It also describes through diagrams how large some dinosaurs were: one diagram compares a Brontosaurus to an ordinary one-story house."

While your points on the popularity of the NFL and coaches are valid, Wikipedia does have specific guidelines for inclusion into the namespace. One such criteria is WP:GNG which states that subjects of articles must have significant, non-trivial, independent, secondary coverage. As required by AfD, I preformed a google search on the subject, and returned sources that are not able to establish notability.

    I am aware that it is an essay and that two can be suitable (hence "most cases"), however, I included 3REFS as the two sources I found were not enough to establish notability due to the first one focusing on the team he was leaving four years ago and how they would fill the vacant slot and the second being a very brief overview of his career.

What I found about our subject, before I posted up my recommendation to Keep, was enough: We have enough sources supporting independent notability for a stand-alone article. Examples: The portrait of the "young Jewish peace activist" in the Times of Israel; a Daily Texan report on Kahlenberg's activism and on his scholarship; interviews in two major news media, one in Arab-speaking Al Jazeera, evidence of the person's media reach, and another in the Greek-speaking New World (Neos Kosmos); and so on.

Article about a film of unclear release status, not adequately sourced as the subject of sufficient reliable source coverage to exempt it from the primary notability criteria at WP:NFILM.
This has gone through multiple cycles of "is it released or not?" in the past decade; it was claimed as "upcoming" when the article was created in 2015, then was edited in 2017 to claim that it had been released in 2015, and then got edited again in 2020 to indicate that it was still unreleased -- meanwhile, IMDb claims it was released in 2018, which has proven entirely unverifiable, while this piece in Screen Anarchy claims it was "long-hibernating" when it was "finally released" in 2022, but even that piece is just a short blurb wrapping a YouTube promo clip, not substantive or GNG-building coverage about the film.
As always, however, films are not all "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to show passage of WP:GNG on coverage about them -- but three of the five footnotes here are unreliable junk that isn't helping to build GNG at all, the two acceptable sources (Dread Central and The Wrap) both have to be discounted if the film didn't come out in 2015 as they claimed it was supposed to, and that Screen Anarchy blurb is the only new thing that's been published in any GNG-worthy reliable source since 2015 at all, which means even the best sources here aren't good enough if they're all either short blurbs or inaccurate problems.
Especially given that there are such unresolved questions about when this was ever actually released in the first place, there's just nothing here of enough enduring significance to exempt it from having to have much, much better referencing than this. Bearcat (talk) 21:07, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Neither "Heyuguys" nor "This Is Film" are reliable sources of GNG-building film reviews at all — film reviews have to come from reputable and established publications to build a film's notability, not just any random WordPress blogger that you can find on the internet. And while AIPT is better, it isn't enough to vault a film over GNG all by itself if it's the only GNG-worthy review that can be found. And I didn't question that the film has been released, but we've got three conflicting claims about when it was released with no fully satisfactory resolution to the matter of whether it belongs in Category:2015 films, Category:2018 films or Category:2022 films — of which it must be in one of those three, with absolutely no leeway for any "then just don't categorize it for year of release at all" opt-outs, so we can't just handwave that away as a non-issue. "Has been released" is not an instant notability freebie at WP:NFILM in and of itself — even a film that has been released still has to pass GNG on proper reliable source coverage about it, and can't park its notability on blogs or primary sources just because it's available for streaming somewhere.

General failure to demonstrate notability. Article purely sourced from its own website and then International (CWI) (WP:ABOUTSELF violation). Attempt to find reliable sources showed no notable coverage in terms of news coverage. Some results appear on Google Scholar but from those I was able to access in English there are few mentions and those appeared trivial and more to do with outside organisations such as SYRIZA.

This was kept at AFD many years ago, and it was probably the right call then. This is something I see in ancient maintenance categories - the project was very exciting in 2011 but never went anywhere, the app disappeared, and there was never any subsequent source published anywhere. The sources cited were all from the initial rollout and seem to be blogs, for the most part, but notable blogs. Still, they were and kind of industry-oriented ones that one might suspect were often just passing on press releases.

This is all fine and well when a startup becomes Uber or Reddit or something, there will be no shortage of better sources, but what if nothing notable ever happens after the initial marketing blitz? The coverage was limited and is incomplete, we can't really say anything about what happened with Parking in Motion after the initial hype window. It didn't succeed, but how? Why? The article will probably never be able to say. There's nothing to add to it, no other Wikipedia articles probably need to link to it. It's just... there, incomplete, forever?

But upon reviewing the sources, I dunno that it rises to the level of non-trivial, definitely not-advertising-related sources mentioned in WP:WEB. The LA Times reference looks impressive in the citation, but I tracked it down and it just says "Parking in Motion helps you find and reserve parking spaces. It shows rates and provides directions. Free for iPhone." in a roundup of a few dozen road trip-related apps. I don't think that's non-trivial coverage. But I invite you to review this and the other sources. --Here2rewrite (talk) 22:57, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weakest keep: found sources [59] and [60], and the CNet one was also good. These sources establish sustained coverage over a year and just barely meets SIGCOV. Aaron Liu (talk) 11:38, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Those were in September/November 2011 and the initial articles were April/May 2011, and the LA Times ones mentions it's an archive of an earlier blog post. They still read like press releases: "But now you can know exactly what the parking situation is like before you arrive: Parking in Motion". I know this is a weird AFD because there are respectable news websites with paragraphs about Parking in Motion, but reading what they wrote, it does not feel like non-trivial coverage. I did find a working link to the CNET article, it's the best coverage I've seen. At least it's not just rewording a press release. But it still limits the coverage to the rollout hype, which didn't go anywhere. Without better sources, the Wikipedia article is stuck in the hype phase forever. --Here2rewrite (talk) 13:12, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That's at least four different months, which seems just borderline enough to establish Sustained to me.

    mentions it's an archive of an earlier blog post

    See WP:NewsBlog. The author's page says she is their reporter, and the references to blogging seems to be just the format.
    The articles have clear bylines so I don't think they're press releases. Product news in general, especially for hyped products, nearly always reads promotional because the writers are hopeful to see where it goes. Aaron Liu (talk) 16:49, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Not seen sufficient proof that there was a distinct battle at Tel al-Hawa. Warfare for sure. The concern with this article is practical, not theoretical. I'm very open to legitimate SPINOFFs for battles. gidonb (talk) 06:42, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip: possibly with a very selective merge. This comes across as a SYNTH aggregation of several events during the war, some separated by half a year, grouped together solely by geography. "Battle at <x>" brings to mind a single, continuous military conflict at that spot, not a collection of skirmishes separated by months of nothing there. Owen× 11:48, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find any serious WP:SIGCOV on this person. Several Google searches brought back very, very few meaningful sources. This seems to fail WP:GNG as a result. The article also kind of comes across as self-made, possibly violating WP:COIN. Anwegmann (talk) 01:30, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Notable as eight-year CFL player and four-time All-Star. This wasn't evident in the article at the time of this nomination but I have since reverted the page back to the last clean version before the COI-editing took over. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 05:55, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Just out of curiosity, to what notability criteria are you referring when you claim that being a four-time CFL all-star is notable? (Being an eight-year CFL player isn't notable at all; participation standards sports-wide were deprecated nearly three years ago now.) Ravenswing 21:17, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Being an eight-year CFL player isn't notable at all – can you find a single eight-year CFL starter and four-time all-star without significant coverage? BeanieFan11 (talk) 22:33, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Because it would be near impossible for someone like this to not pass GNG and discussions like this are time wasters. Here are a few sources from Google. [63][64][65][66] I'm sure there are more out there too in newspaper archives. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 22:35, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Subject does not meet WP:GNG, WP:SINGER, or WP:ACTOR. All the references are either the subjects own website, or self-published sources that are promotional in nature.

The subject of the biography has sufficient relevance to be included in the encyclopedia, especially within the context of the underground synthpop movement in the Northeast, which reinforces the importance of its preservation.

The biography is well-founded, containing sources that support the facts and a structure that provides appropriate backing.

Deleting the article would result in the loss of valuable information about the subject and, consequently, about an important musical movement within the Brazilian underground scene. The article still has significant potential for expansion, deepening the understanding of the cultural and historical impact of the underground synthpop movement and the unique contribution of the subject.

Keeping this article is a way to preserve and disseminate knowledge about an important part of Brazilian music and culture from the north, which deserves recognition and documentation.

Therefore, removing the article would be a setback in documenting this movement, as the encyclopedia plays a crucial role in recording and preserving cultural diversity.

The biography not only contributes to understanding the underground movement but also highlights the subject's relevance within this musical scene. The Artist was recognized by the Museu da Pessoa as one of the most important people, both in activism and art, please do not remove this biography. https://museudapessoa.org/pessoa/rodrigo-barbosa-da-silva/ https://nonbinary.wiki/wiki/Driggu_Florentino Moniiquedecastro (talk) 05:40, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    The Visual Artist is widely recognized in his field, and his reputation has been built organically, without the need for paid promotional campaigns.
    Like other great names in visual arts, he chooses not to appear in the headlines of major portals.
    This decision reflects his commitment to authenticity and artistic integrity, refusing to submit his work to the commercial logic of self-promotion agencies.
    His work is so valuable that it deserves a place in prestigious encyclopedias and catalogs on its own merit.
    The references that accompany his career are more than enough to ensure the preservation and recognition of his legacy, demonstrating that his art transcends marketing and speaks directly to the public.
    It is of utmost importance that Wikipedia accepts this article, as the work of this Visual Artist extends far beyond what we see on major platforms. He has chosen not to pay for promotion, and yet, his work is extremely relevant and deserves to be documented.
    Wikipedia plays a fundamental role in helping to preserve the legacy of artists like him, who are focused on the art itself rather than marketing.
    Therefore, accepting this article ensures that future generations can recognize and appreciate the incredible contribution he has made to the artistic world. Moniiquedecastro (talk) 21:54, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
