Keep. Clear pass of WP:Prof #C1,#C8. What's wrong with a resume? Xxanthippe (talk) 02:59, 26 August 2015 (UTC).[reply]
Weak Keep - This appears to be a borderline case given how the article really needs work and the mentioning by sources isn't that great. Still, he has written two economics-related book while had himself covered as an academic for what he's studied, so I lean more to keeping the article. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 06:20, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'd also like to point out that he's notable enough for the Financial Times to have published his perspective. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 06:23, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Having an opinion piece published in a journal doesn't necessarily equal notability. Having a piece written about you in a journal would be more significant. Have any of his books been reviewed/ referenced?Jonpatterns (talk) 10:12, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: you're all joking, right? A perfunctory journal search has returned more than 2000 citations, thus easily passing WP:PROF. No question here whatsoever as to whether this should be kept. Does nobody perform WP:BEFORE anymore? Regards, FoCuS contribs; talk to me! 16:52, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Nom makes no reasonable substantive arguments for deletion, and the article includes significant indicators of notability. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 20:04, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - standard searching shows good case that Mr. Keasey meets criteria for WP:PROF. -- 1Wiki8Q5G7FviTHBac3dx8HhdNYwDVstR (talk) 13:04, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Arguably this could be have been deleted under WP:A7 because it doesn't make any assertion of notability. A preliminary WP:BEFORE search reveals nothing about a singer on the first page which is usually not a good sign. Mkdw ^talk 17:31, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Does not meet WP:GNG. No references, appears to be totally promotional. ubiquity (talk) 21:28, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete and salt Non notable spamicle. User continues to re-post this copyright violation advert. 2601:188:0:ABE6:E912:650D:B93C:F627 (talk) 21:34, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I originally tagged this for speedy, but it was reverted (by an editor with no other contributions), so I brought it here. ubiquity (talk) 21:39, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed. The article's creator also removed a copyright violation notice. There may be sufficient rationale for speedy on that count, but that template figures to be removed, too. Perhaps WP:SNOW will be obvious, and this can be closed quickly. 2601:188:0:ABE6:E912:650D:B93C:F627 (talk) 21:43, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Faith Action University[edit]

Is it a true accredited university? I can't find any online information on it outside of primary or WP-related sources.--Oakshade (talk) 01:48, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I speedied this once before. It's obvious self-sourced spam. Even if it's notable, there is no real factual content to justify keeping this self-promotion Jimfbleak - talk to me? 07:04, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as although universities and equivalent institutes are considered notable, I found nothing third-party to suggest the slightest coverage. SwisterTwister talk 05:22, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete While WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES does come into play here, in doing a quick search there are almost no reliable third party sources about this "university". No matter what, every article, whether it's a school or not, must satisfy WP:GNG. Mkdw ^talk 17:33, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

CJ Parson[edit]

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

Actor who has played a few unnamed characters ("American journalist", "news reporter", "FBI agent") in film and television. Fails WP:BASIC with no secondary sources, fails WP:NACTOR for lacking "significant roles". Not seeing any press coverage. McGeddon (talk) 19:48, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for now of course as a simple search at his IMDb finds two roles (one in production, Blindspot) and my searches found no better coverage. SwisterTwister talk 07:12, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No notable roles, no reliable sources. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 20:06, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The roles appear to be non-notable, background, or non-recurring roles in entertainment. I would say they don't meet WP:NACTOR to indicate any chance of notability nor do they have WP:SIGCOV. Inclined to say delete unless the WP:BURDEN of notability is addressed. Mkdw ^talk 17:36, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Japan Television Service[edit]

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

No references are in this article that indicated the subject's notablity. I can't find any company exactly called "Japan Television Service", and the Japanese name provided is exactly Nippon TV's. Same goes for Kid's Japan Television, and its Japanese name provides no hint of existence. This might be a hoax. TheGGoose (talk) 19:38, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. In the absence of any references to verify even the existence of this organization, the article should be deleted as a suspected hoax. --DAJF (talk) 15:06, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete unless it can actually be improved as my searches found nothing to suggest keeping this long-troubled article. A final look at the Japanese wiki show symmetrical information so, if this exists, it's not well known and probably a low-profile company by NTV. Some of the previous speedy taggers are not very active but the two most are Mjroots and DESiegel. SwisterTwister talk 16:14, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - article states it is available in UK. I've just been through the complete Sky listings and there is no trace of it, or its associated children's channel. Mjroots (talk) 16:39, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - In the Japanese article provided, the subject company NTV Service wouldn't match the one in AFD. The one in the Japanese article seems to be an NTV subsidiary that does business planning and develops merchandise. NTV Service is not said to be a broadcaster by its own. I also can't find evidence if Yatterman, Golden Warrior Gold Lightan, and Pokémon were aired by NTV or affiliates. TheGGoose (talk) 22:13, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The Yatterman remake was aired by NTV, I just found out. But still no evidence found that the JTS existed. TheGGoose (talk) 14:12, 29 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Only a few hours left on this AFD. I've declined the speedy as this AFD should more than address the issue of deletion. Mkdw ^talk 17:38, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Appears to be a hoax. Virtually inconceivable that a network broadcasting in the UK (even in Japanese) would not generate numerous Google hits in the form of programming listings, advertisements, press releases and likely its own website to inform consumers of its content.

Delete There may be a lack of sources because the stadium is Iraqi and therefore references may only be in Arabic. That being said, the WP:BURDEN is on the editors of the article writers to demonstrate notability and my own searches, as well as others, have not suggested this issue is readily remedied.

Power (Stiehl novel)[edit]

All signs suggest this is fabricated as my searches found absolutely nothing for this rarely edited article since November 2006. @Charles Matthews:. SwisterTwister talk 18:01, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The chances of verifying the content appear remote. Charles Matthews (talk) 19:42, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Appears to be a hoax. No Google hits found for The Legend of the Power with the name Stiehl outside of this article. No listing in Google Books or WorldCat. An 80-chapter novel that led to a screenplay and a short story collection based on its characters would surely attract notice somewhere. Calamondin12 (talk) 20:05, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: It may not be a hoax per se - this might be a case of someone trying to add their book to Wikipedia. Basically, what I'm thinking is that this isn't a hoax but a self-published novel that was never published through the more mainstream methods like CreateSpace. It also might have been something that someone wrote on their own but then never actually went and self-published, which also tends to happen a lot on here. However those things said, hoax or not, I'm not really seeing any sources at all so I'm going to go ahead and snow close this one. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 03:46, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Patricia Apolot[edit]

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

Kickboxer who fails to meet the notability criteria at WP:KICK. Coverage is routine sports reporting and winning a title from a minor organization does not show notability.Mdtemp (talk) 17:36, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As per nominator.Peter Rehse (talk) 21:52, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Perhaps not fully notable under WP:KICK, but comes close as she's scheduled to fight for the continental African ISKA title (not the world title as listed as a requirement for full WP:KICK); however, the subject appears to satisfy Wikipedia:Notability as a person of interest that receives consistent coverage of her fights by multiple, major news sources in Uganda, some of which are already linked in the article (a simple Google search will reveal more). One article states that "She became the first female Ugandan fighter to win outside Africa", which is a notable achievement for a woman fighter from a small country, and good enough to earn media interest from within Uganda. Even has a video story (http://www.ntv.co.ug/news-features/living-life/living-life-story-female-kick-boxer-patricia-apolot) by NTV Uganda, an independent TV Station in Uganda that's listed here[1] as being the target of Uganda censorship. This story was edited and released internationally through AP - one version was reproduced at CCTV, a major TV station in China, here (http://newscontent.cctv.com/NewJsp/news.jsp?fileId=309998). Earns coverage from an article from Hungary with a brief mention of her fight against the Hungarian contender (http://dunaujvaros.com/hirek/201506/nemzetek_csataja_utos_este_volt). Listed as part of a new wave of interest and success in kickboxing in Uganda, one of the few national champs at kickboxing in Uganda along with Moses Golola (http://www.newvision.co.ug/news/662920-kickboxing-federation-boasts-about-a-successful-2014-season.html). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.193.47.172 (talk) 08:39, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Routine sports reporting and promotion is not considered significant independent coverage for purposes of meeting WP:GNG. Mdtemp (talk) 17:32, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

1. These articles aren't promotional articles - they're articles by the largest newspapers in Uganda. The New Vision is the largest newspaper in Uganda, which, along with the Daily Monitor, are the two most important newspapers in Uganda(Media_in_Uganda). 2. There are several independent stories that go beyond routine sports reporting. The 2nd biggest newspaper in Uganda, the Daily Monitor, went out of its way to do a special interview with the subject - even mentioning how hard it was to secure the interview "Catching up with Patricia Apolot for an interview demands the patience of the Biblical Job. She will answer your calls, but she will also be busy with this or the other; at a mall fixing her gadget, at a press conference, persuading a potential sponsor or at the gym training for her coming fight" (http://www.monitor.co.ug/Magazines/Full-Woman/Patricia-Apolot--Uganda-s-female-kickboxing-star/-/689842/2822464/-/jwrjxr/-/index.html). Why would the second largest newspaper in Uganda waste its time pursuing a special interview with someone if they were not notable? Another major Ugandan newspaper, the The Observer (Uganda), also did a story that covered more than simple routine sports reporting (http://www.observer.ug/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=33299:-babe-of-the-week-apolot-kicks-her-way-to-national-title&catid=42:sizzling-entertainment&Itemid=74). An independent TV station in Uganda went out of it's way to do a special segment on the subject(http://www.ntv.co.ug/news-features/living-life/living-life-story-female-kick-boxer-patricia-apolot), a story that later made it to China Central Television via the Associated Press (http://newscontent.cctv.com/NewJsp/news.jsp?fileId=309998). There's at least 3 different, reliable, major sources in Uganda that have gone out of their way to do in-depth reports on the subject. If this doesn't satisfy your definition of going beyond "routine sports reporting", please show me a link in the notability guidelines that specifies the requirements for fulfilling this condition.

Judoka who never competed at the Olympics and who never ranked even in the top 40 in his division. In fact the highest rank I could find for him was 66 in 2011[2]. He also lacks the significant coverage required to meet GNG.Mdtemp (talk) 17:07, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep If winning a medal at the Pan American Games isn't noteworthy enough, then why not start tagging every other existing article about a Pan American medalist -who has yet to compete at the Olympics- for deletion, too? If it matters, Sergio is taking part at the ongoing 2015 World Judo Championships.[3] -- Lancini87 (talk) 22:16, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Given the large number of competitors and divisions, simply competing at the world championships is not sufficient to show notability. Papaursa (talk) 02:35, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I'm willing to agree that winning a medal, not just competing, at the Pan-Am Games is sufficient to show notability. However, since 40% of the competitors in his division won a medal, it's less impressive than it first seems. That's probably why his ranking was as low as it was.

2. top40-charts.com. Not a reliable source. author unlisted. press release from DJ JT Official Website

3. ireport by jdobypr (aka Jerry Doby). iCNN articles are self-published articles not verified by CNN

5. reproduction of Yahoo! Voices article by Jerry Doby. Yahoo! Voices articles are self-published articles not verified by Yahoo!

6. iReach by PRNewswire. Press release, media contact Jerry Doby.

7. Jerry Doby of The Urban Link "scooped" a press release from PRNewswire. Press releases media contact is Jerry Doby. This is the same press release as 6.

8. The same press release again. More Jerry Doby.

9. Same scoop of same press release. More Jerry Doby.

10. top40-charts.com. Not a reliable source. author unlisted. press release from DJ JT Official Website. Same article on iReport is by jdobypr (aka Jerry Doby).

Radio Music Awards 2011. Radio Music Awards? They discontinued in 2006.

CurrencyTransfer.com[edit]

Example of the standard article on a new company as normally written by paid editors (of course any particular case might be someone imitating them in good faith, but the contribution pattern of this editor suggests otherwise.) Still a very small business. Most of the content is about the initial funding, the general subject of money transfer brokerage, and the standard retelling by the founders of how they happened to meet, and why they created it --based on no objective evidence but their own word. (personally I regard the inclusion of this in a business article as diagnostic). The references are either trivial mentions of promotional interviews based on their own PR. DGG ( talk ) 12:27, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete. Fails WP:WEB. On a different note, the article creator did an impressive job of writing that article. Arun Kumar SINGH (Talk) 13:13, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Meets WP:GNG based on the sources in the article. Despite being a new company, it meets notability guidelines. Just because it is new, that doesn't mean that it cannot be notable. Wired [6], Startups [7], and Tech Radar [8] to name a few.
Comment - Are we deleting this for suspected paid editing or for not meeting notability guidelines? Seems to me if the article creator has a COI, we should look for neutrality with the article. If it is neutral and notable, then why delete? According to User:AKS.9955, the article creator did an impressive job.

Comment Many thanks for those sources. I had looked at them in detail and they are problematic I'm afraid. They are essentially based upon the Twitter and Instagram account posts that Zeneli has put out over the past few months.

Delete. Dirtlaywer1 is spot on. In addition, although we don't have any sort of formal guideline for how far in advance we can make this articles, I'd say that, while the year is listed (and the month isn't clearly listed in the single source, though it is listed in the article, possibly based on assumptions from previous competitions), there isn't enough clarity on specific dates and details of the competition for it to merit an article yet. I thought that WP:CRYSTAL could be a direct reference here, but unfortunately, it looks like it references pure speculation about an event, and, in this case, there are barebones details that make this more substantial than speculation.

However, there is not sufficient evidence in the article, nor can any be found, of Walton having a significant impact in the field of methadone therapy, and his positions on aspartame have been largely dismissed.

The article has been revised to include multiple references, including sources that document Walton's contributions to Methadone Maintenance. His work has been validated very scientifically in the published research which is now available in the references section. WikiDan61's claim that his work has been dismissed has not been validated. Where is WikiDan61's references to support this?? All claims refuting Walton's work have been funded by the aspartame industry, and therefore, not credible due to bias. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drakul Bassarab (talk • contribs) 01:51, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment To clarify, no actual references have been added, only more of Dr Walton's publications. It would be a matter of original research for us to assess the impact of Dr Walton's contributions based solely on his own publications. We would require a secondary source that has already evaluated this impact. No such secondary source has been proffered. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 04:57, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Fails WP:NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy GNG.

Comments above by Spetsnaz1991 are misguided. Current consensus is that NFOOTY is only satisfied by participation in contental competition when the player in question has played firstly in the competition proper and secondly is involved in a match between two clubs both from fully professional leagues.

Furthermore, the argument that Alashkert is a fully professional club is irrelevant. full professionalism needs to be league wide and there is no consensus at WP:FOOTY that the Armenian league is fully professional.

The sources provided in the article do not satisfy GNG:

Soccerway - is just a database entry, these exist for thousands of players across the world and do not amount to significant coverage.
Alashkert - is a profile on the club's website. As a primary source, this does not support GNG.
Yerkir - although this is dedicated to the player, the interview is very short amounting to four brief questions and answers and is not significant coverage.
BBC - this is a routine match report where the subject is mentioned tangentially. The focus is on the match between his club and St Johnstone not the player. Again not significant coverage. Fenix down (talk) 09:24, 20 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Poorly sourced WP:BLP of a mayor, in a city not large enough (30K) to confer an automatic presumption of notability on its mayors under WP:POLOUTCOMES. This is essentially written and structured as a campaign brochure, not an encyclopedia article, and it's parked entirely on primary sources: the city's website, his own website, and a campaign statement in the "campaign statements of the candidates" section of the local community newsweekly.

Suggestion/Inquiry: I have a draft of this article already made, but this version was posted before I could since I was waiting for the official debut.

Update: Thanks, Timotheus Canens. I have now added the sources/information that I added earlier. While it isn't large swaths of info (I try to keep things as concise as I can), the new info about the failed previous band (Puretty) and members' participation in Kara Project, which gained a lot of hype for the band (KARA) and suicide linked to it, may help the discussion about the notability of this new group. I'm searching for a better source for Puretty's disbandment, so please take that into account when judging my edits! Thanks Katzenlibrary (talk) 15:58, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good so far, although the sources are all in Korean. I'd like to read something in English sometime. They'll debut before this discussion is closed, so we'll see how it goes. There should be more coverage then. It seems that girl groups are quite popular in South Korea. Kraxler (talk) 16:15, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'll do some work to see if I can find English sources. The problem with English sources for kpop articles is that most of them come from places like allkpop, which are just crude translations of Korean-language news pieces like the ones I used in the article. But once the band debuts, there may be some English-language articles from places like JoongAng or HuffPost Korea. I'll keep my eyes open! Katzenlibrary (talk) 15:06, 20 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A long time ago when I was heavily active here, I tried to get allkpop banned as the site has an explicit disclaimer stating that info "may or may not be true and allkpop makes no warranty as to the validity of any claims"....

Keep Describing even a single species has always been held here to be unquestionable notability for a biologist. From the bio, he's a disciple of Vavilov, the pioneering Russian plant biogeographer, one of the few Soviet biologists of the period whose work is still considered valid, (despite the efforts of Stalin to repress it) and the field he developed is one of the very few fields of Soviet-era biology where the country was truly a pioneer. Not all of the people continuing the field will be notable, but from the academic positions, it seems that he is. DGG ( talk ) 04:39, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It is ok to use offline sources etc. The issue here is determining whether those sources would be (a) reliable, (b) independent, and (c) something more than just passing mentions.

Those bugs were found in FLOSS programs used by millions of people and if they were not found and reported, somebody else could find them in a different way and instead of leading to fixing them, those could be weaponized. I believe that afl-fuzz greatly contributed to the current state of information security. Deetah (talk) 15:26, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The article has been significantly improved since this discussion was opened. Dozens of official security announcements (maybe more) by widely used projects (i.e. millions of users, or billions in the case of some like sqlite - which has integrated support for it the testing harness) with credit given to AFL for finding the vulnerabilities is a strong indication of notability. The information is certainly verifiable. At a minimum it's covered by an infosec magazine and lwn.net, which is a very reliable publication with strong editorial oversight rather than a tech blog. There are multiple academic papers analysing it or making use of it. 99.231.115.244 (talk) 19:45, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep - Current references seem rather specialized, and the text is really reaching a bit in places (census of the mailing list...?), but I would judge there's a borderline notability demonstration. Wouldn't say no to a merge with Fuzz testing though. -- Elmidae (talk) 19:05, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Elmidae: actually, the post was there just to connect the CVEs to the author. On the other hand, the CVE pages already reference afl-fuzz in links inside the report, so perhaps this particular reference can just be removed. Deetah (talk) 21:52, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Elmidae: Regarding the nature of references, we can expect only highly specialized ones simply because that's the nature of american fuzzy lop itself. It should be a while before it's covered in more popular media, but that shouldn't affect the fact that it's already notable enough to deserve a separate article. — Dsimic (talk | contribs) 23:00, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

User:OCCullens, you could have typed in to the Wikipedia search field WP:NOTABILITY That would take you to our main page and from there you want Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). You should read that in detail, but the nutshell version is "An organization is generally considered notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not sufficient to establish notability. All content must be verifiable. If no independent, third-party, reliable sources can be found on a topic, then Wikipedia should not have an article on it. I searched and could find nothing.

This was a refunded BLProd, but I honestly can't see where this person ultimately passes notability guidelines. A search doesn't bring up any coverage for him and it appears that his role in the soap opera is so small that he isn't in the IMDb listing and nothing comes up in a search other than this article. Of the sources, none of them would show notability since I'm assuming that they're all primary. The first two are linking to specific news stories, but since he wrote for both publications I have to assume that these are referring to specific articles he wrote for both outlets. Amazon isn't usable as a source in any context (since it's a merchant source) and just listing CBC doesn't really show anything. (Although I think that this is a reference to the soap opera, which ran on CBC.) His books are all self-published through CreateSpace and while being self-published doesn't mean that someone is automatically non-notable, I don't see where he is one of these exceptions. (Which are admittedly rare.) I just don't see where he's notable enough for an article. Being active as a journalist or actor does not automatically make someone notable.

Delete - Fails WP:BIO... agree with nom, a non-notable person. JMHamo (talk) 15:41, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is written very much like an advertisement, and is extremely poorly sourced. The two newspaper citations listed under "references" are just publication name and date while failing to include the title of the article that's being cited, and aren't footnoting anything in the article but are just contextlessly listed — making it impossible for us to verify whether either paper actually published anything substantive about him, or merely namechecked his existence in passing. I just searched ProQuest's "Canadian Newsstand Major Dailies" database, further, and found that he generates exactly zero hits — not a good sign for a Canadian actor and writer. Zero hits on Newspapers.com either (or at least none that were about him, rather than some other unrelated person with the same name). A person does not get an automatic notability freebie on Wikipedia just because they exist — the article needs to be based on reliable source coverage which supports a claim of notability that passes one of our inclusion tests. But this satisfies neither part of that equation. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 16:59, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per nom. Not notable as the article stands (or rather notability not demonstrated) and I can't find anything that would improve it significantly. There could be offline sources, or ones we all missed, but I tend to doubt it. One quibble, Tokyogirl79, there are cases where a link to amazon can be an acceptable source, but it would be a source of last resort at best. DES ^(talk) 21:51, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'd have to argue against that, since I can't imagine any cases where it'd be appropriate. If it's for basic data, we can use WorldCat for that. If it's for the reviews (obviously not the reader reviews), we can't use those since we can't really verify how much pruning goes on with the reviews or if they're even a review. The publisher has quite a bit of control over the review section and I've seen them add a small snippet of a non-review article (like an interview or overview) as if it was a review. Sometimes there are interviews, but they usually contain information contained elsewhere. Even in situations where you have article content that covers activities on Amazon, usually that can be covered by news coverage about the content. (Like in Bend, Not Break.) Any of the exceptions to this are insanely rare, to the point where I'd probably consider it "lightening strike" type territory. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 14:29, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Life on Mercury[edit]

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

Existence of article is misleading because there is little serious speculation about life of Mercury. Originally, article was redirected to Mercury (planet), but restored without prejudice to AfD after discussion at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion#Life on Mercury A2soup (talk) 05:47, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The topic of life on Mercury has been a part of fantasy and science fiction works for a long time, and you can even go back to mythology and legends from the time in which the planet was first discovered as well. There's many sources for that, just look at here for an example about Mercury-based science fiction. Now, of course, there's no little green men there now in reality, nor has there been. But that the article is badly written doesn't mean that it totally should be deleted. Wikipedia is crammed full of articles on notable fictional concepts: Goblins, Ghouls, Angels, Demons, Satyrs, Ghosts, Leprechauns ('In the hood, yo!'), and it goes on. That applies to astronomy-based things as well, like with Venus in fiction. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 05:59, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Understood, but would you recommend keep and merge to Mercury in fiction? A2soup (talk) 06:57, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article is WP:SYNTHESIS of it's own sources and general hand-waving and open ended questions. One of the sources even says that "Mercury itself is unlikely to be habitable." The topic was sufficiently covered in all it's glorious depth, two sentences, in Mercury (planet). It has also been noted that the original creator seems to be on a crusade, against consensus, to introduce multiple WP:BARE articles in the form of "Life on X" for every astronomical body in the universe.--Savonneux (talk) 08:01, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The relevant info and references have already been merged to Mercury. It would forever be a stub. BatteryIncluded (talk) 08:28, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - The one purported source for this article is a link to a light-weight article in Astrobiology magazine. That article, in turn, links to an academic article that is not actually about life on Mercury, but, instead, about life that might arise on planets that have an orbital resonance like Mercury. Mercury is held up as an example of a planet with such a resonance, thus providing evidence that, more generally, planets can have such a resonance. Mercury is not cited as an example of where life might arise, since habitability takes more than just a certain orbital resonance. Really, on controversial subjects, like "life on Mercury", we need to be more careful in citing sources. We need reliable sources and, yes, sources that say what we say they say.

Keep in the absence of a suitable merge. Article is RS though scanty, not among the more notable detainees, but adds to the overall picture. There is another Mohammed Omar, which makes searching more difficult.Pincrete (talk) 17:24, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Wikipedia is not a WP:SOAPBOX, also it's a violation of WP:BLP policy Kraxler (talk) 18:16, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Kraxler, just curious, but what is being 'soap-boxed' and how does it violate BLP?Pincrete (talk) 22:11, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLPCRIME: " For relatively unknown people, editors must seriously consider not including material in any article suggesting that the person has committed, or is accused of committing, a crime unless a conviction is secured" here there's no conviction, just accusations. The article gives the impression, with blockquote and all, that the guy escaped punishment by the Americans, but was guilty as hell nevertheless, "Judgment by Journalist". Also, notability seems to have been established by having been detained by the US government which falls under WP:BLP!E. Also the title is "child detainee". Come on, 16 years-old is not a child. Also, ref 4 gives a message "forbidden", and refs 1 and 2 and 5 to 9 are dead. That leaves us with a single source, so it also fails WP:GNG. Kraxler (talk) 22:34, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I found nearly all the sources, though they are mostly from a single news source, I presume 'child det' is used to distinguish from his more notorious namesake. I didn't read the article as presuming guilt, more as presuming a rather foolish young man. 'Single event' would not necessarily apply to extended incarceration. I think it would be preferable if this article could merge, but there don't seem to be contenders. Thanks for the reply though. Pincrete (talk) 06:40, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Incarceration (for whatever time) without a conviction violates BLPCRIME; describing a living person as a fool violates BLP in general. Kraxler (talk) 12:43, 18 August 2015 (UTC)"[reply]

Re: BLPCrime, nowhere does the article suggest the subject DID commit any crime. Many of these detainees are notable precisely because of being detained/transported around the world without any credible reason for believing they had committed any crime. Neither the article nor I refer to the subject as 'a fool', the expression I used was 'a rather foolish young man', which, in the context of an AfD, has nothing to do with BLP. Pincrete (talk) 14:32, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The blockquote conveys the idea that the boy/man was certainly guilty and told lousy stories. You said that the article makes the subject look like a foolish young man, and that is a violation of BLP. As to AfD, notability can IMO not be established just by being foolish, or by being mistaken for foolish. Kraxler (talk) 15:04, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

BLPcrime is a 'serious consideration', not a rule, and it is clearly intended to protect the 'innocent' not the 'jailers'. 15 year olds aren't generally deemed notable for saying something foolish, but neither are they usually incarcerated for nearly 5 years for doing so. The notability lies in being locked up half-way across the world, apparently for no better reason than his fairly implausible story for his presence 'away from home'. There are several hundred WP articles on Guantanamo detainees, this is one of the less complete ones, a very significant percent of detainees were released without charge, conviction or reason ever being offered for detention, does BLPCrime apply to all those articles? I think the 'stubby' nature of this article would be better merged with a suitable parent, but I see no good reason to delete. Pincrete (talk) 15:39, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well, Wikipedia is not the Amnesty International files, hence the WP:SOAPBOX. It's really a pity that the Bush administration trampled on the human rights in their futile attempt to show action against Terror, but the question is: Makes that this one particular person notable? IMO not under the present guidelines, lacking coverage, there's only a single source. Kraxler (talk) 16:40, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think we agree that the number of sources is not great, searching is complicated by two other notable 'Mohammed Omar's' and many similar names. I was able to find this M Omar mentioned in a number of journals, but not able to read them, possibly they were mere lists. This primary source is his release document, published on nytimes site and elsewhere, which confirms much of the article content. I'm borderline as to whether notability is established, but disagree about BLP and soapbox, which is more a matter of style than content.Pincrete (talk) 18:03, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep -- Being a quantity surveyor is not a high profile role, at least not in the public eye. As such a firm with 3500 staff is probably quite large. However two universities have concluded that he is significant through the award of honorary doctorates.

Keep - I have no personal connections with David Bucknall nor do I (or ever have been) employed by Bucknall Austin. I am however employed within the construction industry, and have worked with Bucknall Austin on various projects over the years. David was a well known and respected member of the construction industry within the UK, and probably oversees as well. I am familier with Wikipedia's Notability guidelines, but they are open to some interpretation I believe. My interpretation is that his OBE for services to the construction industry, honourary degrees, his various notable roles within the RICS, and local community and charitable work, all amount to easily meeting the Wikipedia notabilty crieria. The article could be greatly expanded to demonstrate this further. Pahazzard (talk) 13:29, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

As always, an unelected candidate for office does not get a Wikipedia article just for the fact of being a candidate — if you cannot make a credible and properly sourced claim that she was already notable enough for a Wikipedia article for some other reason besides being a candidate, then she does not become notable enough for a Wikipedia article until she wins the election.

Harrah's Ak-Chin Casino[edit]

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

This seems somewhat locally notable and some sources say this has "a big impact" locally and generates a lot of revenue (see this, this and this) from my searches here, here, here, here and here. Therefore, I nominated this to get comments and consensus. It has existed since 2006 but, unfortunately, has swinged back and forth between promotional material, which if the article is kept, will need to be taken of (some precautionary measures may be good for future promotional additions).

From NTOUR...Concert tours are notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Such coverage might show notability in terms of artistic approach, financial success, relationship to audience, or other such terms. Sources that merely establish that a tour happened are not sufficient to demonstrate notability.

Redirect for CNU for the reasons stated above; no indication that he's known for anything outside of the group. Weak keep for Gongchan; of the five members, he's the only one that's MC'd a TV program (though it's still in filming and don't seem to be any references).

Still no evidence of notability. Previous proposal reached no consensus. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:32, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. As I did last time, I will again note that this 100 year old camp [32] is located on its own island[33] in the middle of Source Lake in Ontario's Algonquin Provincial Park; whatever the particular notability of the camp, the island itself is apparently notable per WP:GEOLAND (as a named natural feature about which verifiable content is available). So even if the camp is not notable, some of the content here would then be appropriately repurposed for an article about the island. In the last AfD an editor argued that this is a claim of "inherited notability" but I don't agree: the point is that pursuant to Wikipedia's gazetteer function that means we should maintain content about this named geographical feature.--Arxiloxos (talk) 20:31, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Do we have any reliable, independent sources for his the island is named? Google Maps gives it as "Pathfinder Island". Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:24, 3 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Here are a couple of newspaper sources using "Camp Pathfinder Island": [34][35]. But now that you point it out, I've checked again and find that there do appear to be more sources using "Pathfinder Island", including on the camp's own website. [36] Given this, I would be fine with using Pathfinder Island as the title for an article about the island. (Note that there is another "Pathfinder Island" on the Oswego River near Fulton, New York.

Our Lady of Perpetual Exemption[edit]

No official sources confirm Our Lady of Perpetual Exemption is a legally recognized Church in the United States of America. This was a satirical joke on a TV show and has no place on a serious encyclopedia. Alvandria talk 10:03, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Puh-leeze. There are plenty of references in the article which confirm that the church is a real church, legally registered as a nonprofit in the state of Texas, in addition to it obviously being part of a joke. The satire does not undo the fact that the church is a real entity, accepting donations, passing them along to Doctors without borders. In addition to sources already in article, there are sources here and even tax lawyers are talking about the issue of the tax-exempt status of churches.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 17:20, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Absolutely notable. Plenty of sources in article, even more talked about it, U.S. national debate ensued (at least from where I'm looking) - and more to come, I'm sure. Whether that addresses the call for deletion in regards to whether it is governmentally recognized or not, I'm not sure, but I think that reason for deletion is wrong anyway. The text may be wrong in regards to it being a legal church, but that can be fixed by noting as such, and the subject and article is in fact about the claim that it is a legal church. -- Katana (talk) 18:54, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
