  • Delete for lack of citation. The one and only footnote, to the publisher of a book she asserts she wrote, is to a dead link. Keep as work has been done to cite and verify this article, which is of course always the best outcome -Markeer 23:45, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment and question I did some WP:BEFORE type work and discovered that if she's notable for anything it would be her writing or her invention of a new concept. Thinking about WP:CREATIVE could it be said she has "created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work"? There's a lot of commentary about her work, mostly in tabloid sources (Daily Mail etc) but some in borderline sources? CT55555 (talk) 01:53, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Now voting keep CT55555 (talk) 16:20, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - More citations have been added. The subject wrote a New York Times bestselling book, prompting a diet named after her book. The subject has been featured in both national and international magazines, including Woman's World, Daily Mail, Consumer Reports (requires subscription), Today's Dietician magazine, Evening Standard, Woman.ru, Now To Love (a New Zealand magazine), and News24 (an online news source in South Africa), plus authoring four books. Here is The New York Times bestseller list. These are evidence of notability, which satisfies notability guidelines. Meets WP:GNG and passes WP:BASIC. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 08:55, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. No significant coverage supporting notability exists. While the subject has received some journalism awards, they seem standard for members of the press. His coverage appears local. Fails notability guidelines for WP:GNG. Does not pass WP:BASIC. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 19:59, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This is referenced entirely to primary sources, such as his own website, pieces of his own bylined writing about other things, and a radio segment where he was one of the speakers — and even the one citation that appears to be third-party coverage, because it's credited in the footnote to "Ray Regan", actually turned out to also be written by Tim Knight when I actually Waybacked it. As always, the notability of a journalist is not established by sources in which he's the creator of content about other things, it's established by sources in which he's the subject of content created by other people — but there's absolutely none of that here, and nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be referenced considerably better than this.

  • Comment. It looks to me like the sources are out there. Debutante ball culture is an important thing in St. Louis. This is the less important/famous of the two major balls, but the other one has been the subject of several entire books[1][2] and extended media coverage[3]. As for this one: Here's a UPI story from 1981[4], a local magazine story[5], a Current Affairs article [6], another source[7]. Maybe someone can look at the back issues of the St. Louis Post Dispatch? The ball gets mentioned in the "Debutante" article of this encyclopedia [8], which also cites a couple of books that might have more info? There are several mentions in the NY Times in old marriage announcements[9][10], which suggests to me that it's useful to have an article for people who want to look up what these things are.--Jahaza (talk) 01:40, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Abu Torab[edit]

Historical scholarship in English language does not document, much less discuss, the existence of our subject except at this (p. 245) single line. India's subaltern response to colonialism, esp. working class revolts, have been studied extensively and for someone, who was (apparently) the first Bengali rebel against EIC and a hero in the history of Bengal, this absence is striking. (One Abu Torab, Fauzdar of "Chakla Bhushna", is mentioned in some sources but they are not identical; the Fauzdar Torab was killed by a Sitaram in around 1714!)

A couple of romantic historical fictions (Chowdhury and Shahidullah) in vernacular is cited in our article, alongside a newspaper editorial. One blog has been cited. A book on farmer revolts in East Bengal (Jalil) has been cited; this would have been significant if it were not published by a local press and authored by a lawyer.

  • Keep per sources found. In page 17 of [Tempest: A Monthly Review of National Affairs] it says "Choudhury Abu Torab was also a powerful Zaminder who was the owner of Sandwip , Hatia and Bamani. He had a position in the royal court of Murshidabad . After the fall of Dilwar Khan of Sandwip Choudhury Abu Torab became its owner". [Cambridge South Asian Studies] - Issue 7 - Page 245 it says "Abu Torab Choudhury of Sandwip who opposed him was branded a rebel and killed in action , and his military commander Mulkan was publicly hanged at Verelst's instance". In [District Gazetteers - Volume 9 - Page 477] it says "Chowdhury Abu Turab Khan was the Zaminder of Sandwip , Hatiya and Bamni islands . He later on became a Zaminder of a Nizampur Pargana . He claimed descent from Bakhtear Mahiswar of Sandwip . His son was Ali Raza and Chowdhury Jamal Khan". He is also covered in the Hisory of Chittagong written by Syed Murtaza Ali and History of Banglesh by Sirajul Islam.Vinegarymass911 (talk) 05:36, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, "Tempest: A Monthly Review of National Affairs" is precisely the kind of source that we shall strive to use when writing an article on S. Asian History. Not RS for our purposes.
    I did find the second source and mentioned it in nomination.
    District gazetteers contain rank nonsense, written by career bureaucrats with no training in history. Not RS for our purposes.
    Murtaza Ali was not a historian and his romantic sub-nationalist histories, drafted about fifty years ago, are not reliable for Wikipedia. Ten citations (acc. to GScholar), most of which are in articles on regional biogeography. Reviews of his other works are neither impressive. Not RS for our purposes.

  • Keep or Merge It seems like the subject is notable enough to merit a mention. It may just be easier to merge the content into an article about the history of Bengal. Balon Greyjoy (talk) 06:13, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, as it fails WP:V, notability requires reliable sources which is yet to be presented. It's preferable to not have an article on the subject than reproduce a semi-mythological narrative as a factual one. Tayi Arajakate Talk 04:46, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article about a writer of history books has no footnotes and the external links are primary sources. Has been tagged as BLP unsourced since 2019.

  • Delete - I agree he has written a number of books on his field, but just because someone has written a stack of books does not make them inherently notable. We need some independent RS that indicates notability, and there is none in the article. He *may* be notable, but there is nothing here that says he is.

  • Delete I'm not sure Pen & Sword is such a big deal, it doesn't seem to be an academic publisher and I've seen its books range from reliable down to questionable.

Fails WP:GNG. There are many religious movements and many leaders of religious movements. I aim unable to determine what she is notable for in a Wikipedia sense. That she appears to be a decent human being is excellent, but I cannot see that an article n Wikipedia is merited. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 08:10, 10 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

On Wikipedia, the general inclusion threshold is whether the subject is notable enough for at least two people to have written something substantive (more than just a mention) about that subject that has been published in a reliable source.
The article has more than the minimum threshold in both English and Indian sources and so should be retained.
There are many leaders of religious movements but those leaders do not necessarily have references in mainstream media and so would not be eligible for an entry into Wikipedia. ES (talk) 09:01, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I'm finding a good number of book mentions (Examples: 1, 2, 3) in addition to coverage from the Baltimore Sun, LA Times, Tampa Bay Times, as well as this feature story. I was also able to find this article from the Ann Arbor News from 2010. Best, GPL93 (talk) 17:33, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The 3 book mentions are not about White, but about Boras' use Rule 4E to manipulate free-agency for his client; these sources would be best in Boras' article or an article about the draft or the Devil Rays' early years, but not about White. The other 4 newspaper articles focus on the $10.2 million signing bonus, or his success in High School, but don't establish any notability in his own right (High School all-stars aren't notable, they're routine). The only article that is about him, is the Ann Arbor article about him being hired as the Wolverines' pitching coach. These accomplishments, even when taken on the whole, do not merit his own article. Rgrds. --Bison X (talk) 23:32, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The newspaper articles are all focused on him. How is his unique place in baseball history because of the 4E rule not notability lending? Yes being a high school all conference or all state player is routine, but he was the National player of the year so that doesn't particularly apply. GPL93 (talk) 23:56, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Points taken, which is why I believe White's notability exists in mentions in those articles, but he himself does not cross the threshold to have an article (inherited notability). Conversely, you have made a case for which the article could be kept, which is a good thing. Rgrds. --Bison X (talk) 00:16, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Except with full length articles focused on him in at least 3 major US newspapers (the Baltimore Sun article goes into his high school accomplishments, relationship with Boras, the start of his professional career, his family background, and the 4E manipulation so not just some minor mention in a story about the 4E thing) and full length articles in the other two (the Joplin paper and Ann Arbor Times), subject isn't just a footnote and passes WP:GNG. Best, GPL93 (talk) 00:40, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Rather easily passes WP:GNG with multiple sources of significant coverage. Outside of the coverage found by User_talk:GPL93, I found this on Newspapers.com [18][19] Alvaldi (talk) 08:16, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I've now added several sources to the article, both those mentioned above and others I found on Newspapers.com. There are now 12 significant sources from seven publications from a period of 14 years in the article. Alvaldi (talk) 10:03, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - meets GNG easily. Besides the sources above there are newspaper articles about him from when the Giants drafted him. There is no guideline saying that high school athletes or minor league athletes are not notable, only that they need to meet GNG to be considered notable. And Matt White meets GNG with room to spare.

Zero hits on GNews, GBooks, or Newspapers.com for "Silent Library" "Zero Kazama", which is downright bizarre for a show that lasted four seasons. WP:NTV states that

However, the presence or absence of reliable sources is more definitive than the geographic range of the program's audience alone. For instance, a national television program might not be notable if it was cancelled too quickly to have garnered any media coverage or airs on a minor secondary cable channel.

And in this case, it seems Silent Library was too silent for the media to even notice. While I'm sending most of the short-lived MTV reality TV cruft to PROD, I felt this one needed AFD instead due to its comparatively longer life.

For contestants on Silent Library, their main goal is to get through a series of challenges without making a lot of noise. If the group succeeds, they walk away with a cash prize. Each round starts out with contestants flipping cards. When a contestant gets the skull and crossbones card, they have to take part in the next challenge."

For those who never saw it, the game show, based off a segment from the Japanese hit variety show Downtown no Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende!!, features a group of friends trying to win money by staying quiet during a series of bizarre challenges. A clip of the show, embedded above, reminded me of it and I have to agree that it deserves a comeback."

  • Draftify I am a relatively new (several months Wikipedian and this is my first AfD entry, though I have been reading and studying the deletion discussions for a couple of months to learn how things work. So forgive me if I don't get all the subtleties here, but this nomination has me totally confused because the subject of the article appears to be quite notable by Wikipedia's media-driven definition. I don't know anything about this person, but I am interested in publishing and environmental issues, so this caught my attention. I was moved to make my first Afd comment here because I truly don't understand how this is a candidate for deletion: It appears that there are tons of solid references that cover this person in detail, and that she easily meets notability for authors, and that (if what is written in the article is true), that she is notable and successful. The problem I see is that the author of the article did not give links to references. I think it would be easy to edit the promotional tone out of the article and delete the puffery and any exaggerated claims that are not substantiated by a reference. Less easy would be to fix the references by digging up and adding links so they could be checked. (There is a link to the More magazine series -- that was a major women's magazine in the US for many years.) But wouldn't those be appropriate issues to undertake in draftifying the article? Geophiliac (talk) 13:40, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm normally quick to jump in an improve articles. The problem with this one is that it is exceptionally promotional and it seems to me that it has been written by a single purpose editor (see WP:SPA for promotional purposes and I say that after looking into the activities of the article creator.
    I hope this conversation does not discourage you from writing about environmental issues, which are of course not likely to be challenges as being promotional in nature.
    Wikipedia guides encourage the sort of activity you are planning to do and discourage people who join for SPA type activity. CT55555 (talk) 13:54, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I checked the history log for both the article and the creator and noted that the article was written by a seeming SPA -- but my understanding is that if notability is proved, that SPA is not in and of itself cause for deletion (if the issues can be fixed). Anyway, if the article survives Afd, and is either kept or draftified, I will attempt to edit for neutrality and add some missing reference links -- though I think culling all those references will be a multi-editor project because of the volume. I'd be interested in doing some of that just to get a little more Wikipedia mileage under my belt! Geophiliac (talk) 14:29, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

        The article notes: "Tuesday night, MTV premiered its latest reality series, “Paris Hilton’s My New BFF,” in which 18 complete strangers vie to fill that empty spot in Paris’ life. ... Her show is not always as nice. In the first “challenge,” blindfolded contestants were nastily interrogated by Jeff Beacher, a Las Vegas impresario, as Paris and boyfriend Benji Madden looked on. ... The contestants represent a cross-section of types and styles and backgrounds, none as fabulous as Paris’. What they share primarily are a kind of mystical belief in the star and the hope that her reflected glory might make their own glory apparent."

Like Jesus Christ or Kanye West's newest album, Paris Hilton’s My New BFF is great, but frequently misunderstood. Its producers contrived it as a postmodern satire on the absurd contrivances of late-stage reality TV, but no-one—not the contestants, some of whom approach Paris Hilton’s My New BFF with the intensity of Simone Biles nailing a dismount, nor audiences at the time—were in on the joke.

I expected the aptly named Paris Hilton's My New BFF to be a frothy look at the social life of a red-carpet staple: contrived yet harmless fun. What I found instead disturbed me more than I ever could have guessed. The show focuses on a group of catty women -- some who appear to have substance abuse problems and borderline-psychotic tendencies -- and one effeminate man as they compete for the best-friendship of the titular star."

Though the ultimate prize is becoming Hilton’s new best friend, no one knows what that really means. ... Perhaps this show is meant to be interesting because it is shot in the Middle East where the rules, especially against women, are somewhat repressive.

Non-notable school. Fails WP:NORG and WP:SIGCOV. In terms of:

  • WP:NORG (and WP:NSCHOOL) there is nothing to indicate that this school is any more notable than any other. It is not particularly large (480 pupils is similar to other schools in the area) and not particularly old (many Irish national schools date to the mid/late-19th century). The list of alumni is the only content. And therefore the only content that could possibly be used to assert/suggest notability. (And, if these entries were cited [and they are not], primary schooling has been compulsory in Ireland for over a century. Meaning everyone has to go to school somewhere. Including people who become notable after leaving school. Every school, eventually, likely has some notable attendees. Notability of pupils doesn't transfer to schools.)
  • WP:SIGCOV (and WP:GNG) there is no indepth or independent coverage to speak of. At all. We are relying on primary and ROTM directory-style sources to establish the basic facts (foundation and enrollment). And I cannot find any other sources to expand the text. (All we have are ROTM passing mentions in news sources. Like pupil hurt in schoolyard, politician used school as PR backdrop (x2), etc. Not enough at all, per WP:ORGDEPTH, that "makes it possible to write more than a very brief, incomplete stub about the org".

In short: This is a primary school like any other. And schools do not have inherent notability. I have undertaken a significant WP:BEFORE exercise. To try and find enough sources to "write more than a very brief, incomplete stub". I cannot. As ORGDEPTH/SIGCOV isn't met. Guliolopez (talk) 19:15, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete I checked her listed field topics in G-scholar. For "quantum networking" she is #10 in terms of citations but that category seems to be little used or very new. For "quantum photonics" she is #80, and the top 10 in that list are cited ~20,000-35,000 times to her 950. These categories are not pre-defined in G-S as far as I can tell, but in any case she does not (yet) appear to be a star in her field. Lamona (talk) 14:31, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yes, I wouldn't put too much credence in how well-placed she is in these categories. My impression is that a large fraction of Google Scholar profile holders choose their keywords to trade off specificity for high placement. So the people confident enough to use "quantum optics" rather than "quantum photonics" tend to be heavier hitters, and the ones who just list "quantum physics" even heavier. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:29, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete, WP:TOOSOON. Two papers with over 100 citations each is a good start, but in a high-citation field it's not enough to convince me of WP:PROF#C1. The NSF Faculty Early Career Development award is also not the sort of thing that conveys notability.

  • Keep "academic" is no criterion for anything. The man is notable for his publications and pointing out flaws in conventional chronologies of the ANE. The discoveries of other archaeologists he shifts into focus are relevant and accurate. The circumstance that his conclusions are not convincing and sometimes outright wrong (often because of accepting religious narratives as sources), or that he has not published any new material in quite a while does not merit a deletion.

  • KEEP - Strong Keep - Though un-PhDed so are a lot of other people. He is notable as a scholar, an author, a journalist, a lecturer, a television presenter, a musician, a music producer, and he is cited—if often to discount his ideas—in numerous articles, book reviews, and websites on biblical chronology, Egyptology, and the like. He appears in documentaries, e.g. Patterns of Evidence. He is thus notable by many measures. This appears to be a recent attempt to drive out views and persons considered WP:FRINGE by a user who started this nomination in a rather derogatory manner with some apparent malice: see diff.

  • Redirect: After some searching around on Google, this is all I could really find. Everything in the article right now appear to have sources that are all passing mentions, and per GNG, at the bare minimum, we need two sources of significant coverage on the character. With that said, I would like to note that I have no prejudice towards restoring the article should someone find more sources that actually discusses the character beyond passing mentions.

  • Keep. Fläskkvartetten – en kärlekshistoria is a one-hour documentary about the band from Sveriges Radio P2, probably the best source that exists for music in Sweden. They got the "Album of the Year" award at the most important annual award for Swedish music in 1993. The Swedish article sources that are mentioned above are pretty good, the Dagens Nyheter article "Fläskkvartetten som sprängdes", is good, useful and definitely the kind of source we use and see as counting towards notability. The Symfoni article, though partly interview content, is interesting. Some others are listings, and but a search in the Swedish media archive points towards a wealth of articles, not least around when the band split, went to court around the rights to the name "Fläskkvartetten", and then continued playing. In short, they live up to WP:GNG, several of the criteria in Wikipedia:Notability (music) for musicians and ensembles (1, 5, 8 (where the Grammis is specifically mentioned), 10 and 12). We explicitly don't demand sources in English (we only say that they are, all other things equal, preferable to sources in other languages). //Julle (talk) 19:38, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I've expanded the article a little bit, adding a few sources so that at least a few of them should be present in the article as well, and not just mentioned here.
Also, they got the music award given out by Expressen (one of the biggest newspapers in Sweden) in 2002, so all the music journalists at the newspaper wrote about the band, for a total of 1750 words, so that could be used, too. (Not easily available online, but can be read by anyone who can access w:sv:Mediearkivet.) //Julle (talk) 19:56, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. (non-admin closure) Obviously there is no consensus to delete. Page was relisted 7 days ago, with no discussion since. While I could've closed as keep just going by a simple head count, only one of the keep arguments is a straightforward keep that actually makes any attempt to address the nominator's concerns, while the second and third seem to share the nominator's concerns on sourcing. All three keep arguments also raised concerns on one particular source (FilmThreat) and there is substantial debate even among those !voting keep as to which sources are sufficient.

Based on the actual substance of the arguments presented, that's why I'm closing this as no consensus and not keep.—Mythdon (talk • contribs) 19:18, 1 May 2022 (UTC) (non-admin closure)[reply]

Other than the Jezebel and Buzzfeed articles, which interestingly enough are extremely and reasonably critical of the documentary, there isn't much else to establish notability. The rest of the sources (and even the additional sources I can find) are just listings of "x played at y festival", with those festivals largely being non-notable. Wrt the award by NVVS - it doesn't appear to be a notable award, so it also doesn't contribute to notability and the jurors/judges that awarded it don't appear to be notable names or known in their respective scientific/medical communities.

I've done a fair amount of digging and despite the two articles I mentioned above, there doesn't seem to be sufficient coverage to support this article and certainly not to the extent that it's currently written.

I'd also point out that if there were more coverage, I wouldn't be afding this but the problem I have is that while the Buzzfeed coverage is fairly decent and the critique from Jezebel is as well, Jezebel is largely based on Breure's Buzzfeed interview so in my opinion, neither of this are significant enough to meet WP:NFILM as basically being one single major review. So on it's own, these two just simply don't establish notability and that's ignoring the fact that CUPIDICAE💕 18:42, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I had checked those myself but the Vancouver one is a staff blog, so while still more reliable than if it weren't staff, isn't endorsed by their editorial board and is a single sentence, not a review of the film but the filmthreat is of dubious notability and reliability (as I have opined in the past) because it doesn't identify who is writing reviews and is largely rehashed bits of other reviews. CUPIDICAE💕 20:42, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The Vancouver Sun source devotes three sentences to this film, not one sentence. Staff blogs by professional journalists are acceptable as sources. Accuracy matters. Looking more closely, I understand your concerns about FilmThreat which seems to have a "pay to play" business model but I see no indication that the reviewer did not actually watch the film. Cullen328 (talk) 04:16, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This article has gone through three nominations for deletion. It appears to have some okay sourcing and, while I wouldn't necessarily oppose it going away, I also think that this fight has happened before and the focus should be on improvement rather than deletion. PickleG13 (talk) 00:51, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep. The notability here is pretty razor thin. I added a book mention where the film is given about two paragraphs worth of discussion. The other sourcing is pretty thin, but just enough to establish notability. With FilmThreat, the site is generally considered to be reliable, but I hadn't noticed how obvious their pay to play service had become. This needs more evaluation at RS/N to determine which posts and reviews from them should be considered reliable. Anything that was paid to have reviewed shouldn't be considered reliable, obviously.

  • Delete. The individual articles are a better way to manage this information, as none of the cast or crew were the same between the theatrical film and the direct-to-video film, nor can their box office performance be compared (since the direct-to-video film had no box office results), nor can their critical reception be compared (since the direct-to-video film has no Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, or CinemaScore rating). --Metropolitan90 (talk) 07:15, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete I could see there being some justification for a franchise page, as there are films and television shows, but two films isn't really enough to justify a film article. I'd say merge pertinent content into the main article for the comics but there not much that really needs to be added. I would maybe add the cast table, limiting it to just those characters that were in both films, but I'm not entirely sure that's really necessary.

As a topic, this online magazine lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. (?) Its current sources are mainly primary and unreliable. It had no meaningful hits for further sources in Google searches and databases. There are no worthwhile redirect targets. If someone finds more (non-English and offline) sources, please {{ping}} me. czar 03:50, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This page does not meet the minimum quality and sourcing requirements for medical information. All 26 of the pages in this set should be treated the same way; presumably they will be tagged in a day or so if this isn't a SNOW keep. User:力 (powera, π, ν) 00:33, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 00:26, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople and Brunei. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 00:26, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep It does not fail WP:GNG, the person is twice an Asian Champion, which is pretty significant bearing in mind that he is a champion of an entire continent within his sport. He also competed in THREE Commonwealth Games and the World Championships. (Furthermore it is a stub). The sources include the Commonwealth Games Federation profile, the Brunei Darussalam National Olympic Council and the BBC. I cannot understand why the article has been proposed for deletion.

  • Delete we do not have indepdent, 3rd party sources just souces that are basically the awards granters themselves recognizing the award. Awards need to be sourced to sources other than the granting organization themselves.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:14, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The BBC source lists him in a list of players and scores - not WP:SIGCOV. No other source meets WP:GNG either. BilledMammal (talk) 01:30, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I can't find any instances of clear cut significant coverage about him. This article is the closest that I could find but it's barely more than a quick quote from him and is insufficient to build a biography from on its own. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate sportsperson database. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 11:08, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I boldly added content from this page to Silver as an investment (a small merge, you may say), and when I'm done, most content are either included there, or were not encyclopedic enough to remain (e.g. listcruft or excessively subjective original research).
