- Delete I’d love to agree with you, because they seem really interesting, but… NCORP not NMUSIC is the right standard to judge them on, and everything I can see in the article is either passing coverage, or basic business process (the sale to new owners) coverage… but nothing giving any sort of extended coverage of the company itself. It’s all “band x signs to Rottweiler Records” and then a ton about band x, but nothing about the company. So weirdly they would count for the band’s notability, but not the company’s.

Deleteas there doesn't seem to be any in-depth secondary coverage of Rottweiler Records itself as a label. There are a lot of sources cited in the article but they are mostly articles about individual album releases or announcements about bands signing with them, with minimal commentary about Rottweiler Records itself. (Agree with above comment that there is a lot here that adds to the notability of the individual bands though.) As for mainstream media coverage, there isn't much in ProQuest except a few articles in The Hindu about R.A.I.D. which mention Rottweiler as their label (like this article from 2018) and several articles about a different Rottweiler Records based in Tacoma, which promotes hip-hop. Fails WP:NCORP. Cielquiparle (talk) 04:39, 10 October 2024 (UTC)- @Cielquiparle:, since this article was potentially discussed as merge-to target for Nosral Recordings, can you take a look at that article's AfD as well? Graywalls (talk) 02:51, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
- Changing !vote to merge and redirect to Christian_metal#Record labels as an WP:ATD. The section on Christian metal record labels currently lacks any sources. At minimum, we could add some of the sources cited in this article there. Will take a look at Nosral Recordings separately. Cielquiparle (talk) 11:04, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to Port_Harcourt#Education. I just spent a lot of time on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Starlets Academy and this one is in the same vein, so to keep it short this doesn't meet WP:NORG either but we usually redirect non notable schools where possible. The redirect target has an appropriate section, although that section needs work, and probably explains why we have these unwriteable stubs. The page links secondary schools to a list of Port Harcourt schools with an inclusion criterion that schools must have a page to be on the list. The criterion is wrong and should be changed, or perhaps just merged back into the parent page. Port Harcourt should discuss the local schools, and if they ar enot due for a mention there, then they are not notable for an article either. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:57, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- This secondary school has no single reliable source. Wikipedia is not Google. The school already has a map and no one even knows if it's a new school to verify. They are other school notable which ain't on wikipedia. I believe we should focus our energy on that than non notable schools. No point redirecting as school might be notable in the future as well. Gabriel-> Hello. 11:12, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- The purpose of the redirect is not to keep non notable information, but because it is very plausible that someone would seek information on the school. Being non notable, they should be taken to a page that meets their information need. That is the Port Harcourt page, which has an education section. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 11:49, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting. This school (and no primary or secondary schools) are listed at the suggested redirect target article but there is a link to List of schools in Port Harcourt. Would this be a more appropriate target article if there is an ATD?

- Delete per nom. Just nothing there in terms of WP:RS. 49ersBelongInSanFrancisco (talk) 05:37, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment The problem with List of schools in Port Harcourt is that my attempt to make that a list of all schools in Port Harcourt was reverted. If this is redirected, it will be removed from that list, and then we will be off to RfD. That action pretty much scuppers my attempts at a redirect. I think that is wrong, and the only way forward I could see would be to expand the education section at Port_Harcourt#Education (and perhaps nominate the list of schools for deletion, as I don't see what purpose it would then serve). But to do that, I think I would need sourcing that describes Port Harcourt education and I have nothing. As such, I expect the deletes will have it here. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:17, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

This article was recently copied over from simple:Battle of Nicosia Airport spun off from Military operations during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus, but discussion at Talk:1974 Nicosia airport battle and my own check of available reliable sources have not uncovered sources with significant coverage. I'd be thrilled if anyone could prove me incorrect, but without that I'd propose re-merging this article and covering the topic in a paragraph or two, emulating the references used now in the article.

- Actually it was taken from simple wikipedia according to the creator here. Also stop changing the name when nobody recognises it as such. As to coverage thats your opinion at this point. ShovelandSpade (talk) 08:43, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Also to clarify the article has over 20 references ranging from journals, to books to news articles, it by more than far is in compliance with wikis notability guidelines, there are a few claims which are unreferenced but I am currently working on adding sources for them too (I didnt make the article so), doubt that warrants article deletion though.

- Comment. There are no reliable sources calling the events at Nicosia Airport during the day of the Military operations during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus#23 July 1974, the "Battle of Nicosia Airport". It is WP:OR by a single editor despite protests from editors in the WP:MILHIST project. They have ignored and/or reverted any attempt to address this issue (and are still edit warring).
- The information about the event is already in the Military operations during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus#23 July 1974, and as the redirect of "Battle of Nicosia Airport" is really OR, I think it is more of a delete (and salt) than a merge. Aszx5000 (talk) 10:43, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Most sources in that page indicate both the severity and name the battle of the airport yet two users seem to not only disregard that, are also straight up lying about whats written.
- Cyprus mail article- "The battle for Nicosia airport wasn’t – objectively speaking – the bloodiest of the many dark events that took place exactly 50 years ago, but it may have been the most consequential."
- Reuters article- "this airport was the theatre of some of the fiercest battles between Greek Cypriot troops and an invading Turkish army in 1974"
- Im seriously confused as to why you guys are stiring up such a problem with an article that has more than ample sources, if we compare articles with the same events, such as Battle of Paitilla Airport, the sources are not only very few, but oddly enough its still called "Battle of Paitilla Airport" even though I cant see any of the 5 sources stating that name clearly. ShovelandSpade (talk) 15:32, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- If The Guardian says that there was a pitched "battle" between rioters and police in Trafalgar Square, that does not mean that we create an article for the Battle of Trafalgar Square. Aszx5000 (talk) 15:44, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Read what im saying and stop going off on a tangent. As youve displayed here, youre moving the goalposts as soon as you see that you are wrong. Also I dont know if youre playing dumb or trolling but what is the difference between "Battle of Nicosia airport" and "1974 Nicosia airport battle"? They both have that keyword battle, so again, I really dont understand your problem with this article when all other articles use the same logic. ShovelandSpade (talk) 15:56, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

- Keep Article has been vastly improved since it was brought over by the user from simple wiki, enough sources from both journals and newspaper articles cover the intensity and notability issue, any other issues within the article are likely fixable. If it was, instead of delete it should be placed in the sandbox so that the users that still have an issue can fix it.— Preceding unsigned comment added by ShovelandSpade (talk • contribs) 03:49, 5 October 2024 (UTC)

- Merge: as suggested. This happened in and around the airport, it wasn't a battle to take over the airport (from what I'm reading in the sourcing). Most sourcing is about the abandoned building, not about this "battle". Oaktree b (talk) 01:26, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- Oaktree b, are you suggesting a Merge to Military operations during the Turkish invasion of Cyprus#23 July 1974 or a different article? Because the editor who brought up this article was arguing against a Merge. Liz Read! Talk! 03:26, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

I don't think we can just agree to "merge" this and then walk away, or we will have committed "new editors" trying to re-defend it?

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This article cites 2 sources, both of which are trival. One is just a directory listing on the website of the town the company was located in, and the other is a single news article about a single incident of purely local interest. A google search for the company name results in nothing relevant except some AI generated content that appears to be drawn from this article and a couple seemingly-defunct directory listings. The company's website fails DNS. The company fails notability now, and since it doesn't appear to be in business any more the chances of it satisfying the notability criteria in the future seem slim.

- Delete. Apparently British Bakeries was a subsidiary of Rank Hovis McDougall which was responsible for their various flour/bread products (including Hovis and Mother's Pride); presumably they came under Premier Foods when Premier acquired RHM in 2007. In 2014 Hovis was spun out of Premier to become its own company; it's unclear whether British Bakeries continued to exist after this. If either the RHM or Premier articles mentioned it, British Bakeries could redirect there, but neither does which suggests it's really not that important.

1. It was moved from draft space to article space before it was reviewed and made live by the creator of the page
2. It was moved to draft space by other editors due to promotional tone, it seemed as it was written by someone closely connected to the subject
3. It was proposed for deletion and the final decision was to keep. However, the keep voters: 1 was a new account created just for this debate only (seems like it and it was an open IP, one was an editor banned for sock-puppetry)
4. There is someone constantly removing a section that is a bit negative about the subject
All this makes me believe that this page is being managed by someone closely connected to the subject. Additionally, i don't believe the subject is notable and most of the references are PRs and he is constantly self-promoting on the internet. WikiProCreate (talk) 13:49, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

WP:BLP of a musician, not properly referenced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC.
The attempted notability claims here are "started a record label", "was a member of musical ensembles" and "was artistic director of a music festival", none of which are automatic notability freebies in the absence of WP:GNG-worthy media coverage about them and their work -- but while this was tagged for PROD a few days ago as being completely unsourced, it was then deprodded by an editor who added primary sources (mainly content self-published by Laughton himself and/or organizations directly affiliated with him) rather than reliable or GNG-building ones.
It's also a clear conflict of interest, as the article was first created by the subject himself under his own name.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have much, much better referencing than this. Bearcat (talk) 21:49, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Article needs to have some more support for their role in the global glycine market -- it's verifiable (see, e.g., [5]) but notability is from the TikTok incident which continues to be reported on.

From Google Translate: "Just recently, a chemical company from Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province suddenly became popular on TikTok (the international version of Douyin). What did they do? It's not complicated - edit a video showing the company's park and products, and add subtitles about the company's business introduction. But such a short video that seems "plain and unpretentious" or even a little "rustic" to domestic users has been played millions of times on TikTok and has spawned a "glycine" trend."

Glycine is usually used as a sweetener in food to enhance flavor and can also be used as industrial and pharmaceutical raw materials. How did Donghua Jinlong become popular? In December 2023, in order to expand overseas markets, Donghua Jinlong registered an official account on TikTok to publish the company's promotional videos.

Social-media accounts have become tools for strategically funnelling attention; an aspiring influencer might route viewers of, say, a popular TikTok video via “links in bio” to a series of other accounts—Instagram, Patreon, YouTube—where clicks are more easily monetized."

- Illinois's 1st House of Representatives district (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)
Delete or Merge into Illinois House of Representatives and appropriate elections articles. Unlike other electoral districts in Illinois or sub-national electoral districts in other countries, I do not believe individual state legislative districts in Illinois meet the standards of WP:GNG.
These are not like sub-national ridings in the United Kingdom or Canada, counties in the United States, in which there are political groups organized around district geography. They are not like wards in Chicago in which there are longstanding cultural associations or institutions independent of electoral politics.
Unlike congressional districts in Illinois, they do not elect Democratic or Republican committee-persons to any partisan body nor is there a substantial body of independent coverage regarding even their demographic characteristics.
The districts themselves are rarely written about. The "Representative district history" sections are a history of apportionment of districts generally as evidenced by the fact that all of the articles have identical excerpts. The more modern coverage that does exist is secondary to gerrymandering allegations (and the subsequent lawsuits) or the description of an election. While a subject of an article does not need to be the main topic to be significant coverage, it does need to be more than trivial. TLDR: These districts are not notable due to a lack of substantial, independent coverage just because similar enough entities might be. Mpen320 (talk) 15:16, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

Unlike congressional districts in Illinois, they do not elect Democratic or Republican committee-persons to any partisan body
- do they not elect members to the Illinois House of Representatives (Democratic or Republican) in partisan elections? AusLondonder (talk) 16:15, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Clarification. I was referring to the respective State Central Committees of the major parties [8]. Those offices are elected/selected from congressional districts. It is just another way that those districts are covered that state legislative districts are not covered.--Mpen320 (talk) 17:14, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Just because something isn't covered or has full articles doesn't disqualify it from an article. Other states have articles for every senate and legislature (or equivalent) district; just because Illinois does not (likely because many of them are small urban districts) doesn't mean we TNT every article that has been created, and it is undeniably partisan. Nate • (chatter) 16:44, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment. This is just pointing out other stuff exists on Wikipedia. I also acknowledge legislative districts in other states could very well meet WP:GNG. Your remark about small, urban districts, well these are all small, urban districts with no significant coverage or independent coverage. Also, I have no idea where you are getting that I am being partisan. It's an unfair allegation.--Mpen320 (talk) 17:14, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

- Keep Not sure any of the reasons listed qualify this article for deletion. These electoral districts have been around for a long time and are historical. Lima Bean Farmer (talk) 23:57, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Reply. If they are so historically important, then why has no one been able to find any sort of independent, significant coverage of the districts? It exists for congressional districts. I could find a bunch of coverage on the creation/gerrymander of Illinois's 13th congressional district. I can find plenty of independent, significant coverage of Chicago wards such as Chicago's 11th ward (notably Ward by Ward by David K. Fremond. So why not these if they meet the barrier for significant, independent coverage? The fact that most districts have been around since no earlier than the Cutback Amendment in the early 1980s, is not in of its self meet WP:GNG. It is a classic case of existence does not mean notability.

- Comment. The way to fix this article so that it doesn't read like a straight violation of WP:1E (notable for only one event) would be to add more detail about Shaw did afterwards. We find out that he gets a lot of awards - OK. But the article doesn't tell us anything about what Shaw did with his fame, except for "consider" running for mayor of Nashville. Tell us what he's been saying publicly – has he taken any position on crime, police, or gun control, for example? Are there any reliable secondary sources discussing his life outside of the one big event and what he's been up to? Cielquiparle (talk) 04:14, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

(Mushy Yank) 19:52, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
- That’s the issue though. This list could easily be merged back into the main article with no length or accessibility issues arising, which is what I assume SPLITLIST concerns. SirMemeGod 21:17, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
- It could, maybe, everything is feasible. But should it? SPLITLIST says "Regardless, a list or table should be kept as short as is feasible for its purpose and scope. Too much statistical data is against policy." Note that there are FIVE detailed lists on the page: this one and List of fictional primates in comics, List of fictional primates in television, List of fictional primates in animation List of fictional primates in literature. If you merge back one, you merge back all the other and then you have an awful navigation experience. I would go even further, and suggest to undo the redirect for List_of_fictional_primates_in_video_games but that might be discussed later maybe. I probably won't make any further comments here. Decide what you think best. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 21:41, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: per Mushy Yank re-merge applied consistently would be undesirable. The short tables at List of fictional primates should not exist where there are splitout lists such as this one - any missing entries should be moved to subpages. Yeah it's somewhat listcruft but besides NLIST there's also the gentler WP:LISTCRIT ("While notability is often a criterion for inclusion in overview lists of a broad subject, it may be too stringent for narrower lists; one of the functions of many lists on Wikipedia is providing an avenue for the retention of encyclopedic information that does not warrant separate articles, so common sense is required in establishing criteria for a list"). Note that there are a large number of similar lists -- see {{Fictional_biology}}. If you are set on eliminating -- or at least significantly constraining -- this type of list, then RFC to establish the baseline standard for retention/inclusion would be better than piecemeal nominations which will vary in outcomes depending on who turns up. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 07:37, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - Even though this at least borders on listcruft. However, it serves a useful purpose by compiling notable fictional primates in an accessible way. Merging it could complicate navigation. This is not a hill I'd die on, but in the interests of avoiding an NC close, that's my two cents. Given there are similar lists (I know I am risking an OTHERSTUFFEXISTS mentality), the format is not obnoxiously against practices. I feel there is just enough merit to justify retaining this list. — MaxnaCarta ( 💬 • 📝 ) 03:41, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

This article is back following its deletion in 2022 and not improved. Leaving aside its WP:PROMO nature and peacocking words ("hype queen," "energy goddess"), the vast majority of sources on this individual are promotional WP:CHURNALISM, WP:INTERVIEWS and tabloid coverage excluded as WP:SIGCOV under WP:SBST.

- Comment: Since the AFD nom she just picked up another award - it looks like Diaspora Glitz (responsible for the Global African Diaspora Awards) is a legitimate magazine (though it would be nice to see the print magazine credits page, since what's online is unhelpful)[12][13][14]. That makes minor awards in at least three countries. If I squint, I think she's probably on the cusp of WP:NMUSIC#7, though available sources are pretty poor (noting that print indy music magazines don't always have a great online presence)[15]. It's not clear if the forthcoming(?) Love or Pop is to be a broadcast show([16] - CRTV is a national broadcaster). Sorry, I've been on and off the fence a bunch for this one from "Very Weak possibly IAR Keep but sigcov may never get much stronger" through to "Meh Delete, this is practically an orphan, but expect new versions of this article to be reasonably created as WP:NPOINTS increase" and am landing on "No Consensus is ok for a while". ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 09:32, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

- Delete After looking through sources and taking quick notes, references clearly do not establish any notability. 8 are passing mentions, 3 acknowledge the subject as one of the reviewers or compilers of a large report, 2 only cite subject's work and do not discuss in depth, 5 are self-reported, and at least one does not contain the name "Middlebrook". I cannot access The New Yorker article to see coverage here; but with all other references falling through, I do not think it would provide enough coverage to establish notability on its own. The 2 other possibly reliable refs otherwise in my opinion are the finance assessment in Kyrgyzstan and the Al Jazeera appearance. I admit I did not watch the 30 minute video to get a sense of the subject's part in the story coverage. I think all together, these still do not provide proof of notability.Cyanochic (talk) 23:14, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

Based on the analysis, by Cyanochic, all of the current references are either passing mentions, or unreliable sources, or only tangentially related to the subject, or all three. He has apparently partnered with a famous runner on a project. That does not mean he is also notable. Nor does being an expert on a topic - lots of scientists and other scholars (like me) are experts in something or another topic, but unless it’s covered in secondary sources, we’re not notable. The last remaining issue is whether to block this article’s re-creation. Based on loads of precedent, we must “salt” it. Bearian (talk) 01:42, 13 October 2024 (UTC)

Yesterday, I just made a edit for the article of the forgotten animated series Rayman. It was just fixing up the layout and removing unnecessary materials however, when it came to the sources, most of them tend to have either little or no information, except the interviews.

; for contrast, this is what a trivial mention looks like; the others are significant coverage). And this is without all the video game magazines which are likely to have covered it at the time, plus TV magazines in France, Germany and the Netherlands where it was broadcast, and coverage of the VHS/DVD from the US and France (I haven't been able to search for any of these as Internet Archive is down).

Only trivial, interviews, etc with no deep real media focus on the Julia. The best piece from ARTnews has this:
- “Clay,” she says, “gives me the freedom to create something intense, raw, over the top. It has allowed me to pile things up, break things down, play, and make mistakes.” Kunin loves the immediacy of a material that is “as basic as mud,” she points out. “I am addicted to the unpredictability and iridescence of the glazes I’m using as well as the range of their colors and their psychedelic qualities.”
- Kunin grew up in Vermont in the ‘70s..... Later, she says, she rejected clay as a dull brown “craft” material but returned to it in 2003. She started exploring female sexuality and the body and began using octopuses for more metaphorical imagery. Frustrated by a series in cast glass, “I happened on an exhibit by the Chinese artist Ah Xian, who creates busts painted in traditional Chinese porcelain patterns from Jingdezhen, China.

None of the (non primary) sources here even mention the documentary, they're all on La Légende des seigneurs assassins (which this is a documentary about the making of??? why would someone make an article on the making of film and not the actual main film???). Even with that all the sources here are quite regional French sources under what is required from NFILM, so I have no clue if that other film is notable (could be, just judging off what's in the page). This was deleted on frwiki 3 years ago; I think this and several related articles (Thierry Mauvignier, Dylan Besseau, Guillaume Gevart) may have some promotional stuff going on here and on simple wikipedia but it is difficult to tell what exactly is happening here.

Not notable per WP:MUSICBIO, she released one EP which didn't chart, and I can't find significant coverage of her or the EP in reliable sources in English or Chinese. Not notable per WP:NACTOR, as her only lead role was in the film Dreamtrips, and I can't find SIGCOV of the film or her as an actress in reliable sources, apart from that it was screened at a notable festival. In the last AFD, two editors said that it was in the Hong Kong Film Archive, but I can't find it there when searching for 夢之旅.

- Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:
People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.

The article notes: "主持過兩輯「新地 MTV」後,陳漢詩覺 得表現已漸見好轉,不 過若將電台與電視相比 ,前者滿足感較大,且 創作力更高。雖然陳英詩對自己 在「新地MTV」節目 中的表現滿意,然而令 她最討厭的是肥胖的面 部,原來身高五呎七时 的她,竟然擁有一六〇的體重,怪不得其男友 也狂催促伊人要積極減 肥哩。衆所週知,陳漢詩 與周慧敏非常老友,以 前在電台亦常被人貫以 「孖公仔肥妹」稱號, 但日子一天一天地過去 之後,周的體重竟然日 斷下降,反之她則日漸 上升,現在她除向對方 請教主持電視節目的心得外,最重要的,便是 尚對方請敬一套完善的 減肥秘訣。陳笑謂:「我嘅減 把目標係卅磅!」雖然 周的三棲發展已漸上軌 道,然而她却未因此而 感到羨慕,因爲她認爲 作多元化發展必須講求 個人潛質,而單看周慧 |敏的纖秀外型及清麗脫 「俗面孔,就已經勝她一哩籌。"
From Google Translate: After hosting two seasons of 'New Land MTV,' Jennifer Chan feels that her performance has gradually improved. However, she finds that compared to radio, the satisfaction from television is greater and the creative output is higher. Although Jennifer is satisfied with her performance in the 'New Land MTV' program, what she dislikes the most is her chubby face. It turns out that at a height of 5 feet 7 inches, she weighs 160 pounds, which explains why her boyfriend keeps urging her to actively lose weight. As everyone knows, Jennifer and Vivian Chow are very close friends and were often referred to as 'the chubby duo' back in their radio days. However, as time has passed, Vivian's weight has steadily decreased, while hers has increased. Now, besides asking Vivian for tips on hosting television shows, what she wants most is to get a complete set of weight loss secrets from her. Jennifer joked, 'My weight loss goal is 30 pounds!' Although Vivian's diverse career is gradually on track, Jennifer does not feel envious because she believes that diversified development must focus on personal potential. Just looking at Vivian Chow's slender figure and elegant appearance makes her feel that Vivian is already a step ahead."

The article notes: "如果閣下於八丶九十年代,要收音機撈飯的話,應該會對DJ陳漢詩(Jennifer)不會陌生了,與她同期出道的還有周慧敏及黃凱芹等。及後,她轉到新城電台開咪,而筆者亦因此認識到Jennifer。可是,她不久便離開香港到法國深造,能與她聯絡的舊同事亦不多。由於Jennifer 在香港電台工作的時間曾傳出她遇過不少靈異事件,但礙於一直未能由她親口作證,以往關於她的經歷只能由別人口傳而來。直接早前筆者突然知道Jennifer與另一舊同事方家煌開了一個YouTube頻道,主力分享他們於法國與英國生活點滴,久違了的Jennifer終於出山,"
From Google Translate: "If you were in the radio industry during the 1980s and 1990s, you would be familiar with DJ Jennifer Chan. She debuted around the same time as other notable figures like Vivian Chow and Wong Kai-kin. Later, she moved to New City Radio, and that's how I got to know Jennifer. However, she soon left Hong Kong to study in France, and there weren't many old colleagues who could keep in touch with her. During her time at the Hong Kong radio station, there were many rumors about her encountering supernatural events, but since she hadn't confirmed them herself, her experiences could only be relayed by others. Recently, I suddenly learned that Jennifer and another former colleague, Fang Ka-huang, started a YouTube channel primarily sharing their life experiences in France and the UK. After a long absence, Jennifer has finally resurfaced."

The article notes: "電台,是一棟歷史十分悠久的建築物,四層樓高空間亦頗多,在這幾十年來,很多次在工作的唱片騎師,都遇上各種怪事。八十年代著名DJ陳漢詩就曾經傳出一個經典故事。 話說當年最著名的鬼古,就是陳漢詩某晚在港台做通宵節目,到半夜三點左右,她突然見到唱盤上出現了一個男人的人頭, 便即時逃離直播室,更即時要求不再做通宵節目。 不過,後來已移民法國多年的陳漢詩,就曾親口說出,自己並沒有遇上這件事,但她知道真正撞正如此恐怖事件,其實是當年紅透半邊天的蔡楓華。"
From Google Translate: "The radio station is a historic building with four floors and ample space. Over the decades, many DJs have encountered various strange occurrences while working there. A famous story from the 1980s involves DJ Jennifer Chan. It is said that one night while doing an overnight program at Radio Hong Kong, around 3 a.m., she suddenly saw a man's head appear on the turntable, prompting her to flee the studio immediately and request to stop doing overnight shows. However, Jennifer, who has since immigrated to France, later stated that she did not experience this incident herself. She revealed that the real person who encountered such a terrifying event back then was the immensely popular Ken Choi."

From Google Translate: "However, with the departures of Cheng Dan-shui, Ho Ka-lai, and Lam Shan-shan from 'The Three Little Fairies,' Hong Kong Radio needed to promote young idols, creating an opportunity for Vivian Chow to step up and become the 'Goddess of the Arts.' Vivian's success is not a matter of luck; in fact, the young DJs who were promoted alongside her, including Wong Kai-kin, Yu Gam-ming, and Jennifer Chan, clearly demonstrated higher maturity in terms of EQ (Emotional Quotient) and Mental Age. Their goals and ambitions have long surpassed the confines of the radio industry."

The independent film distribution organization Ying e Chi has taken the lead, premiering several new works later this month, including Ng Ka-long's 'Journey of Dreams,' which features an expansive screen ratio to present a virtual and slightly sci-fi journey, fully exploring the possibilities of visual storytelling. 'Journey of Dreams' features DJ Jennifer Chan and Wayne Kwok in its cast."

The article notes: "導演:吳家龍 一齣1999年上演的本地獨立電影,由陳漢詩和郭偉安主演。導演在戲中構思出一種有如茶餐廳奶茶的港式科幻,故事講述一個徘徊多倫多的失戀少女,利用一個叫“夢之旅”的電腦方程式,進入夢世界尋找逃婚男友。不少影評都認為,本片以詩化的影像融入城市建築空間之中,形成一種心靈的沉思,是在技術和資金限制下所迫發出來的無限創意。"
From Google Translate: "Director: Ng Ka-long. This is a local independent film that premiered in 1999, starring Jennifer Chan and Kwok Wai-on. The director has conceived a Hong Kong-style sci-fi that resembles the milk tea served in tea restaurants. The story follows a heartbroken girl wandering in Toronto who uses a computer program called "Journey of Dreams" to enter a dream world in search of her runaway boyfriend. Many critics believe that the film integrates poetic imagery with urban architectural spaces, creating a form of spiritual reflection. It is a manifestation of infinite creativity born from technical and financial constraints."

Per WP:SIRS we need multiple reliable secondary sources independent of the subject that contain significant coverage of the subject at WP:CORPDEPTH. There are no such sources in the article. Anything with depth is from the company themselves, so not independent.

- Keep. There is a definition of exonyms given by the UN that means that such lists are not indiscriminate, but instead pass WP:LISTCRITERIA. By all means cull items that should not be there (such as toponyms that are the mere result of orthographic rules in different languages). But such lists themselves are encyclopedic. As for appealing to recent rulings, what's actually happened is that there has been a huge bunch of individual nominations, some closed very quickly, without any notification placed on the page most people interested in the topic would see: Talk:Endonym and exonym.

Getting this out of the way: the article is huge, but FANDOM pages are also huge, that doesn't have anything to do with a character's notability. In this case, Ryo does not appear notable, and the article only reinforces how Dan Hibiki, the character who is a parody of him, is probably notable while Ryo is not. What is not primary-sourced development information or plot summary is sourced entirely to trivial mentions or listicles that mention him alongside all other characters, only indicating KOF characters are notable as a group. I appreciate the effort to improve the article but Boneless Pizza was likely correct to redirect it in 2023. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 20:52, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

- I made sure it in reception to make sure it had a big impact not only in game journalists discussing him on his own in different countries. Also real people. There are cases of people reacting to his marketing, developers inspired by his story or involving him or simply how important was him being a guest character in Fatal Fury Special also inspired the creation of the fighting game franchise KOF.Tintor2 (talk) 21:08, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- In case it helps, I added several new articles focused around him just now.Tintor2 (talk) 22:01, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: There are many articles on SNK characters (List of The King of Fighters characters), where I would struggle with notability. The recent additions don't show a significant change in notability. I think covering the character in an article together with SNK's other character would be more useful. IgelRM (talk) 20:18, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
- 'Comment After talking with other users, I tried cleaning up the article by removing reviews and pointless revisions. Most of thecurrent articles are primarily focused on the characters and games narrative with the exception of his Mr. Karate alterego which is more rare so I used few previews for that. Furthermore, I have just found that the internet meme was far more popular worldwide and expanded on it. I also made sure to keep the only important Fatal Fury parts as Ryo's inclusion in FFSpecial is famous for inspiring the KOF franchise as well as guest characters. Same with his role in kof as I only placed articles focused on him and or team. I also changed the commentary of Dan Hibiki and how the company reacted to Dan's character by creating another parody character.Tintor2 (talk) 17:32, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
- Merge, for now. There's definitely some potential for discussion regarding Ryo here, and I do feel there is some ground where establishing him helps Dan's article. But many of the sources I've looked through here just aren't saying anything or really next to anything and are mostly reviews. While I recognize the monumental effort I feel it needs a far tighter scope and a near nuke to boil down what's actually said about the character.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 14:47, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not against any removal of content but I think the current article passes the rule of best three:
- The internet meme that has been so popular that has been part of an official mobile game.
- Ryo is the first guest character in gaming history, inspiring The King of Fighters '94.
- Dan Hibiki.
There is also all those other articles that aren't focused about gameplay or story, but critcize it like how Ryo's age makes no sense in Fatal Fury Special, his ridiculously unfiting built appearance from KOFXV, his rivalry appeal with Geese from XIV, etc. I agree content can be removed but deletion seems sudden.Tintor2 (talk) 21:54, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
- But what three sources do you feel hold up the article? It's not just concepts, but the sources themselves. So many of the things here don't even mention the character much or in passing, and those that do aren't saying really much at all. While I'm not saying there isn't something here, it's hard to see that in light of all this. So if you had to start from zero, what fistful of sources would you use as examples of it being notable?--Kung Fu Man (talk) 07:36, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, asilvering (talk) 21:48, 23 September 2024 (UTC)- '''Comment''' I rearranged the reception and removed most articles that are useless. There is only one review in a comparison the character has with Street Fighter in reception. The only paragraph that abuses a bit retrospectives is the small one of the middleaged persona. The Fatal Fury and KOF feature articles dedicated to the character they criticize his presentation, constant similarities with Ryu from Street Fighter, moves or role in the series. Tintor2 (talk) 22:05, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment I agree that most of the notability is around Dan Hibiki and the feud between game studios. There is some borderline coverage for the character outside that. I am torn because it feels mostly like context for why the character became the subject of the more notable parody in Dan. But I could be convinced to keep the page to provide a richer context of this as a separate character. Either way, this article needs a serious clean-up due to weight. Shooterwalker (talk) 19:23, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

PRTimes = press release reprint, so fails requirement for being independent (and even then what I see there would fail SIGCOV, those are just some passing mentions in list). Blog = well, blogs are not reliable. gamesradar - one paragraph, very borderline SIGCOV, just a comment on how his apperance was kept a secret as a marketing gimmick for one game at some point. The last source translates very badly, seems like some rambling gibberish - how is this reliable and SIGCOV? I am sorry, I want to see this kept, but those are not three best sources, they seem like three worst sources.

- Comment I went ahead following user's comments and trimmed the reception into the most important parts.

- Hello. To provide some context, I plan on creating articles for Jordanian clubs that have participated in the Jordanian Second Division League, to which Deir Alla have in 2022. I set this as my limit, given that third-tier clubs and above participate in the Jordan FA Cup and there are no actively fourth-tier teams that participate in the national cup, unlike in some other countries. I don't plan on creating articles of teams that have only played in the fourth tier (i.e. the Jordanian Third Division League), as they are not notable enough to be discussed as an article.

Biological anthropologist with an h-factor of 34 and no major awards, created on Oct 2 by a user with (currently) 30 edits. Page is a badly written stub without much information.

Tags removed and page moved to mainspace on Oct 7; claim by original author that she is notable, with no further explanation, attempt to meet any of WP:NPROF or reach concensus.

Comment I personally remain not convinced, particularly about AAAS. I remember being told by a very distinguished chemist who was NAS and an h-factor of 145 that nobody considered it that meaningful (he was FAAAS plus a large string of major awards). I also remain with reservations about the IgNobel. However, the concensus is clearly different so I am going to withdraw the nomination (if I can work out how to without more coffee). Ldm1954 (talk) 15:05, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment. Notability seems possible. Her CV lists multiple news stories (last 2 pages) that might prove notability. Two I pulled out quickly: Science article covering her research and written summary from an audio/radio interview on public radio. She's also an elected fellow of American Association for the Advancement of Science and has an article explaining why she was elected to AAAS on EurekAlert but originally posted on Kent University's site, but not self written. She is an Ig Nobel Prize Winner and last author usually conveys a larger part in the paper (although she isn't the corresponding author).

- Keep. I think Fellow of the AAAS is enough for WP:PROF#C3, her citations are at least enough to make a case for #C1, the IgNobel may not be a major award but it carries a lot of publicity, and she's had a fair amount of other publicity for her work: along with the sources listed above, here are a couple more in Smithsonian and Scientific American. Bad nomination and bad draftification, as many of these signs and sources for notability were already present in the draftified version. It was very stubby but not badly sourced for what it was. You'll be lucky if the article author persists in contributing here rather than getting bitten by your bad nomination piled onto a bad draftification and leaving the project forever. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:57, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- I strongly disagree about Fellow of AAAS, that is not one that should ever count towards #C3. They elect ~500 per year from among people who have been paying dues. I also strongly disagree about her citations, by comparison to others in her field they are low - I checked, did you? She is in a medium citation field, and most of her well cited papers have more than 5 authors (sometimes far more) with her somewhere in the middle.
- If you feel the Ignobel is major, then OK, that is your opinion but I do not particularly considering the topic. Some of the Ignobel papers are real science, some are a joke and not WP:Sustained. This one is a joke. Ldm1954 (talk) 10:16, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- N. B., you may not know that composites where one of the components is ice is a high school/intro MSE experiment, e.g. Boeing link. (We used to do this as a lab demonstration in the intro to ceramics MSE class.) If you look at the Ignobel paper they say the knife melted, that should have been caught by a referee. The paper has decent news coverage (27) but only 14 cites. Ldm1954 (talk) 10:44, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

- Keep. AAAS fellow looks a little less prestigious than e.g. IEEE fellow, but I think it's enough for NPROF C3.

- Redirect to Harper's Island#Cast and characters - A full, detailed list of all of the major, minor, and guest characters of the short lived series already exists on the main article, making this a redundant and pointless fork. The only information that is on this list that is not already present on the main article are overly-detailed plot synopses that should not be merged, so a simple Redirect to the main page is sufficient.

WP:BEFORE finds that most of these are barely mentioned. Article describes itself as an "index" and "minor", making it difficult to obtain WP:SIGCOV. I would consider a redirect to Deipnosophistae and thought it was best to discuss WP:ATD. Jontesta (talk) 01:44, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

- Considering the structure of the Deipnosophistae and the existence of Category:Lists of minor fictional characters, the page deserves to be preserved. It can be also enlarged in order to obtain Wikipedia:SIGCOV. The alternative is to add the content to the page of the Deipnosophistae. Digitalphilologist (talk) 06:33, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- This is an argument to merge presented as a deletion discussion: the list is clearly relevant to the Deipnosophistae, and there is nothing wrong about treating it; the question is whether it should be a stand-alone list or part of the main article. Since the main article isn't that long, it seems perfectly feasible to merge this list there, without losing any of its contents—although perhaps it could be reformatted to make it take up less space (and if not, it's still better preserved there than deleted). If more content or discussion in secondary sources can be added, the list can remain separate, or be split off again at a later time. P Aculeius (talk) 14:08, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Merge cut down to main page. The characters seem an important aspect, and the main article is not long. PARAKANYAA (talk) 00:26, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
- Merge selectively per PARAKANYAA. This doesn't have WP:SIGCOV, but the bits that are sourced can be WP:PRESERVED. Shooterwalker (talk) 20:53, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

Attempted draftification, though perhaps the moving back into mainspace was unintended. I don't know what the notability standards for would be for a dialect, but it's actually been over an hour, no sources have been added, and the only source I could find on Google that was referring to the Algarvian dialect, and not Algarvian craft beer or the resilience of Algarvian culture was a blog post that was posted to a couple of websites.

I propose the deletion of this article as it fails to meet encyclopaedic standards. It contains numerous WP:NPOV violations and lacks reliable sources to support many of its claims. The content remains heavily influenced by original research and includes exaggerated statements about the individual’s achievements. Over the past two years, two users, one likely the subject herself, have edited the article. Earlier versions relied predominantly on interviews provided to non-reputable media outlets (not sure what the language is?), further indicating original research. The awards section seems designed to artificially enhance the subject's credentials, yet most of the claims cannot be independently verified, whilst the majority of the (notable) awards have been awarded for team effort. This includes journalistic pieces in which she has either contributed or claimed to have contributed, none of which can be definitively corroborated. Some of those are not reliable, others are mere contributions. As a result, the article is heavily based on unverified original research, and those involved in its editing may be breaching WP:COI. It’s also worth noting that the articles presented as the author’s original work, particularly on Gaza, are again contributions rather than pieces they’ve led. This raises questions about their WP: Notability. Previously, the language used in the article was highly self-promotional, with phrases like "exposed" and "uncovered," attributing investigative achievements to them that aren’t truly theirs. This one fails WP:SIGCOV. Finally, be mindful of potential input in this nomination from the subject and their associates. Happyaroundyoubabes (talk) 09:15, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Keep The subject of this article is currently engaged in an online dispute and their page is being heavily edited, with this deletion request coming from an account who is politically motivated to try to delete the page. The subject clearly passes WP: Notability, and if there are issues with the page they should be improved, rather than the page being deleted. This deletion request looks vexatious to me, and part of a dispute about the journalist's work which is currently taking place on Twitter/X.--Jwslubbock (talk) 10:57, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: This individual is journalist John Lubbock, who is closely connected to Manisha Ganguly and has a proven history of editing the page. John, could you please publicly confirm that you have no relation to Manisha Ganguly and that your contributions are not linked to WP:COI? Thanks.

- Delete. Substantial WP:COI. The image added by user Fml657 at 11:21, 15 April 2022 says "Added image taken by me", yet on this website ( https://camri.ac.uk/blog/2021/04/13/manisha-ganguly-named-on-the-forbes-30-under-30-list-for-media-and-marketing-in-europe/) that same image says "Image provided by Manisha Ganguly". This shows that user Fml657 who has done the bulk of the contributions to the article is the subject of the article, indicating conflict of interest editing. Likewise, the other major contributor to the page, Jwslubbock, is credited as the photographer (see filename/URL) on (https://blog.westminster.ac.uk/graduateschoolfestival/wp-content/uploads/sites/34/2022/03/Manisha-Ganguly-photo-credit-John-Lubbock-150x150.jpg), suggesting that a close connection is editing the page, again showing conflict of interest editing.

- The claim "user Fml657... is the subject of the article" is, based on the above, entirely without foundation, and illogical.
