Accvording to Pepapapopo (talk · contribs): only one actual article about this guy is sourced, otherwise filled with unsourced information and i doubt this meets the notability requirements
. An article was previously deleted at AfD, but I cannot determine if it was about the same person as this one, an American video game voice actor. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 23:56, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: This is about all I can find [1], which does nothing for notability. Delete for lack of sourcing. Oaktree b (talk) 02:24, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete I cannot find where any of the biographical information comes from. The listing of roles can be from credits on the games and films, but there needs to be some independent sources. It is a shame that voice actors aren't covered well in sources, but that doesn't change the fact that we have no independent sources for the content of this article. Lamona (talk) 21:28, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Fails both WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR. No significant coverage of his roles as a voice actor. — YoungForever(talk) 22:07, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: The info on the voice acting seems shaky without outside confirmation. Maybe with some good references, this article could be brought back up to snuff! Waqar💬 17:40, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

I have carried out WP:BEFORE for this article about a school in Switzerland, and cannot find information or references to add. No reliable, independent secondary sources have covered it as far as I can establish. It has been tagged with notability concerns since November last year. No obvious redirect target. It was established in 2007, so part of the problem may just be lack of time for it to become notable. The article was created in 2008, by an SPA, FF-School (talk · contribs).

- Battle of Lagarde (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

First, WP:D states that we should only disambiguate when "for a given word or phrase on which a reader might search, there is more than one existing Wikipedia article to which that word or phrase might be expected to lead". I think the reference to "Wikipedia article" impliedly means English Wikipedia, not foreign-language Wikipedias. Indeed, MOS:DABMENTION requires that each entry have a blue-linked article, not an interwiki link. Second, the change requires adding a disambiguator to an otherwise unambiguous article title. Finally, there are a significant number of incoming links to this title, presumably because the intended link was Battle of Lagarde (1940), which had been around for 9.5 years at its old title. (A hatnote is not an appropriate alternative because WP:REDHAT states that a hatnote cannot lead to a red link.) voorts (talk/contributions) 23:33, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

- Move Battle of Lagarde (1940) to Battle of Lagarde - unnecessary disambiguation per WP:PRIMARYRED. The disambiguation page can be moved to Battle of Lagarde (disambiguation). I don't see a point in deleting it — hopefully it encourages someone to translate the German article. C F A 💬 23:49, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Our primary concern should be for readers, not editors or translators. I think a reader directed to Battle of Lagarde (disambiguation) would be confused to find (1) a link to Battle of Lagarde, (2) a red link, and (3) a link to an article in German. voorts (talk/contributions) 00:19, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- I don't necessarily oppose the deletion of the DAB page. If Battle of Lagarde (1940) is the primary topic, like I stated above, then it wouldn't be required anyways per WP:TWODAB. I'll translate the German article when I get around to it, then a hatnote can be added to Battle of Lagarde if it is the primary topic. Otherwise, the DAB page will need to be kept.

The result was no consensus. After discarding the clearly canvassed votes, and the views not based on P&G (or incorrectly based on them), we're left with no consensus either way. Since the subject of the article chose a public life, arguments for privacy have limited weight here. Broad participation, including by some of the project's most experienced editors, makes it unlikely relisting will bring about a consensus either way. Owen× ☎ 13:17, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I’ve nominated this page for deletion as I’m not sure whether they are relevant enough to warrant an entire wikipedia page, politicians who’ve stood for election and lost with less than 2% of the vote don’t generally get Wikipedia pages, especially when they’ve done nothing of much note after the fact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Maxisediting (talk • contribs) 15:40, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, not meeting the WP:NPOL criteria only means that there's no inherent notability, not that the subject is not notable. There seems to be enough significant coverage to meet WP:NBIO/WP:GNG. --AlexandraAVX (talk) 07:09, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, agree with the above. Fundamentally well covered enough to meet criteria, and little reason to remove well enough sourced information. Flatthew (talk) 14:47, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, Knight is much more than a failed election candidate as is attested to by the numerous citations to other events covered in the article. JezGrove (talk) 16:33, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

- Delete already been deleted twice under a different title, and the article contains massive WP:BLP concerns. SportingFlyer T·C 21:27, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- A lot of the sources in the article are newer than the previous AfDs, I don't really see the relevance of them. AlexandraAVX (talk) 06:12, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'm just struggling to figure out why she's notable. She clearly doesn't qualify for NPOL, and her other "event" was being fired. Most of the sources are either local papers or self-published. The article reads like WP:NPF needs to be properly applied as well. I'm struggling to see why this should be kept. SportingFlyer T·C 13:55, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
- A lot of the sources in the article are newer than the previous AfDs, I don't really see the relevance of them. AlexandraAVX (talk) 06:12, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
- WP:NPF doesn't offer much definition of who counts as an NPF, but links to WP:LOWPROFILE. That says
Persons who actively seek out media attention are not low-profile, regardless of whether or not they are notable.
Knight today does not seek out media attention, but from 2015-8, she was an active campaigner and political candidate, clearly repeatedly seeking media attention. Ergo, she does not come under WP:NPF. Bondegezou (talk) 22:22, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- WP:NPF doesn't offer much definition of who counts as an NPF, but links to WP:LOWPROFILE. That says
- Keep, Knight is an important figure in the recent history and controversies of Green Party of England and Wales as the article shows - Knight was not just a failed politician but someone whose behaviour and actions have had ramifications across the political spectrum.

- Can an admin delete this comment and block this person for using such a language! FuzzyMagma (talk) 11:48, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- The only "problem" with the redaction is that it proved my point that there are massive WP:NPF concerns with this article, which is about a non-public figure. SportingFlyer T·C 13:39, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: While there is a numerical consensus to Keep, they are weak Keeps with no reference to policy or sources. Also most participants have, what I consider, low edit counts so I'm not sure how familiar they are with the norms of AFD discussions. I'd just like to relist and hopefully hear how this subject meets Wikipedia's standards of notability and, specifically, what reliable independent sources provide SIGCOV.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 23:26, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Just noting that there has been offwiki canvassing related to this AfD: [2], and I suspect that several of the infrequently active accounts voting in this discussion are likely the result of it. Hemiauchenia (talk) 03:34, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- looking to nom (from someone with two edits) and User:Aquila ka Hecate comment, I think there is more to consider when evaluating this nom FuzzyMagma (talk) 12:01, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- There are MULTIPLE reliable sources about the subject cited on the page, notability is obviously established, keep. Pyraminxsolver (talk) 04:49, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Very interesting subject, but I'm not seeing the consistent, in-depth news coverage that would be required for a Wikipedia page. BottleOfChocolateMilk (talk) 23:37, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
Keep: although not a notable as a politician, there is a substantial coverage from reliable sources that Checks all the boxes of WP:GNGcomment there is coverage but the page is mostly about David Challenor, Knight's father, and gives undue weight to Challenor. If the article is kept, can someone fix this problem please and create a separate article for David Challenor (currently a redirect) because he actually deserves one with all of the coverage. I am really concerned about why this article was first created and I can’t assume good faith looking to keep votes above. FuzzyMagma (talk) 11:46, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - Very difficult case. She's borderline notable, but mostly for other people's wrong-doing and the way it affected her. I don't think it's realistic to have an article on this subject that adheres to the spirit of WP:BLP while also respecting WP:WEIGHT. That is, when the notability claim isn't extremely sound to begin with, and the source of that notability would demand a largely negative article chiefly related to the misdeeds of other people, we arrive at an exceptional scenario. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 16:27, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep It would do this website injustice NOT to include a trans rights activist covered by the likes of The Guardian and BBC News. Content for women's rights, trans, and other activists is already lacking here as it is. We all must do better and try to improve it by not deleting swathes of content. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-coventry-warwickshire-45373833 https://www.theguardian.com/society/2018/jun/06/aimee-challenor-theresa-may-lgbt-inequality-transgender-green-party Historyexpert2 — Historyexpert2 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- Keep Her activism is highly notable. Agreed with the above. There's no need to delete. Ahri Boy (talk) 01:14, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete Based on searches of Aimee Knight, this looks like a WP:BLP1E: her firing from Reddit. Many of the included sources are about her father, David Challenor, and per nom, she doesn't meet WP:NPOL. Say ocean again (talk) 02:07, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- To clarify: I don't believe we should consider BLP notability based on a subject's adjacency to the actions of another party at all, but especially not when those actions are horrifyingly awful. My concerns echo that of Rhododendrites. Say ocean again (talk) 05:58, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: Seems to be WP:SIGCOV in multiple WP:RS both for the stuff with Reddit and for the stuff to do with her father being her campaign manager. This is certainly not a WP:BLP1E. Can do with some clean-up but is not beyond redemption to the point of WP:TNT. TarnishedPathtalk 13:20, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - Obvious, easy GNG keep from sources showing in the footnotes. If there is a content issue, SOFIXIT. Nor should IDONTLIKEIT arguments show their head in this venue. Carrite (talk) 22:46, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- The delete votes aren't WP:IDONTLIKEIT. This is a very difficult article about a private person. SportingFlyer T·C 23:01, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- She was the former spokesperson and electoral candidate for a political party. On face value, that says to me that she's not a private person. TarnishedPathtalk 13:40, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- We wouldn't normally keep a spokesperson for a political party, especially not a minor political party, and we rarely keep articles on failed candidates. Merely running for office or being a spokesperson doesn't make you a public figure. SportingFlyer T·C 21:21, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- I can't see keep arguments on the basis of her being a former spokesperson or candidate. The keep arguments, at least mine, is on the basis of GNG. My comment about her being a spokesperson and former candidate was made only in reference to the claim that she is a private person. TarnishedPathtalk 15:23, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

- Delete per Rhododendrites. This is certainly an edge case but she does not appear to be notable as a political candidate. She is marginally notable due to the protest against Reddit, but as Rhododendrites notes, this is tangled up with a separate person's misdeeds. I don't think documenting a private person's troubles here is good policy - maybe she gave up some expectation of privacy via running for office, but let's be real, it was a minor party protest vote. No objection to bringing back if her political career actually goes somewhere. SnowFire (talk) 17:50, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:HEY: I just rewrote the article to be less of a train wreck. There's still some work to do but it no longer repeats her fathers crimes in every section and no longer misrepresents the sources as more critical than they are. I'm very sympathetic to arguments presented by @SportingFlyer, @Rhododendrites, @Say ocean again, and @SnowFire - but think that she is clearly notable to the extent we can't simply delete the article. We have sustained coverage over years detailing how she was a rising star for the greens and held prominent positions, engaged in advocacy, and her career was very publicly derailed following her father's conviction. I believe we should focus on making sure everything there is due and the BLP issues are handled sensitively rather than deleting it. I pinged y'all to see if my edits fixing the ostentatious BLP issues persuade you the article is salvagable, no worries if not. Best, Your Friendly Neighborhood Sociologist ⚧ Ⓐ (talk) 01:57, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not sure this is an improvement. By removing that the protest was related to her father's crimes, you've made the Reddit protest make no sense in your version as coming from seemingly out of nowhere. If she's going to have an article at all, it's going to need to include when her father was relevant to her biography in all of the parts it is relevant (which is unfortunately quite a lot of it), which is why I'd rather just delete entirely. Additionally, there are still aspects that are only questionably relevant - like why are we listing exactly all of her psychological conditions? Obviously autism is a bit of a special case as many people consider that a core part of their identity, but I'm not so sure Knight considers it that, and then that leaves why the others anyway (which are implicitly equated with the autism spectrum)? Your version has also added in more commentary from Knight (e.g. including the IMO fairly meaningless "she condemns the tweets" - of course she does, or including a long quote from her on resigning from the Green Party rather than simply saying it was due to transphobia). If we set aside her father's actions... what distinguishes Knight from any other activist? Not much, as best I can tell. This is not something article editing can really fix. This is an odd version of Wikipedia:No amount of editing can overcome a lack of notability, where she's borderline notable but that notability is tied up in a non-notable person's negative coverage. SnowFire (talk) 02:17, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'd concur. I was struggling to understand why this article stood out to me amongst the dozens of political articles I've read at AfD, but notability isn't inherited. If you remove all of the articles in the article that aren't directly or indirectly about her father's crimes, you're left with only a few local political articles, and a couple articles or posts on social media that she wrote herself - in short, the type of local activist that wouldn't normally be eligible for an article.

- SportingFlyer suggests that
If you remove all of the articles in the article that aren't directly or indirectly about her father's crimes, you're left with only a few local political articles, and a couple articles or posts on social media that she wrote herself
. Looking at the current references, there are several about her father's crimes and several that are local political articles, but other references are not that. I would pick out the following. 7 is a significant interview with a national newspaper unrelated to her father. 5 is a short interview with the same national newspaper a year earlier, unrelated to her father. 4 is not related to her father and, while a minor publication, isn't alocal political article
. 9, 10 are less significant publications, but national and not local, about another smaller issue involving Knight (not related to her father). 39 is about her and about her partner's behaviour, not her father's crimes, and is a national newspaper. There is then her departure from Reddit, most notably national newspaper coverage in 40. This was related to her father's crimes, but only indirectly and is broader than that (as it also relates to her partner's behaviour). Bondegezou (talk) 22:05, 12 July 2024 (UTC)- The first is a Society interview, where people who aren't normally famous or notable get an interview in the Guardian. The second might be okay but again is an interview and would be considered primary. The third is a blog. 9 and 10 she is simply quoted as a spokesperson, the article is not about her at all. 39 and 40 has the same problem as I mentioned - even if it wasn't her father it was her partner. There's simply not a lot here. SportingFlyer T·C 09:36, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- SportingFlyer suggests that
- Strong Keep: she clearly passes WP:GNG. There are multiple in-depth and independent reports about her. Bondegezou (talk) 06:19, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- I've just looked at the first 10 references in the article (and there are plenty more). These are:
- [3] Substantial piece about her and her father about event 1
- [4] Substantial piece about her about event 2
- [5] Substantial piece about her (event 2)
- [6] Substantial piece about her, unconnected to events 1 or 2
- [7] Shorter piece about her, unconnected to events 1 or 2
- [8] Substantial piece about her (event 1)
- [9] Substantial piece about her, unconnected to events 1 or 2
- [10] Shorter piece about her (event 1)
- [11] Shorter piece mentioning her (event 3)
- [12] Short piece mentioning her (event 3)
- There is coverage of multiple different events/stages of her life, with several substantial articles about her. As I said, this clearly passes WP:GNG. If the article needs work, fix it. Bondegezou (talk) 13:53, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

- Maxisediting, may I ask if you have any relation to Knight at all, even if it is being something such as an acquaintance? Considering the past history of the subject of the article (especially the brief tenure at Reddit) and this deletion page is your only edit right after you signed up, at least some suspicions are harboured. Pyraminxsolver (talk) 01:24, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
- hi, no relation to knight. have made anonymous edits before but stumbled across this page and just found it strange that such a minor figure had such an article, had some concerns about what the real purpose of the article was. worthwhile discussion on both sides though Maxisediting (talk) 02:06, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Say ocean again and Rhododendrite explained it best. The in-depth coverage precludes an encyclopedic article, and the incompatibility with BLP guidelines also means it doesn't need its present editing history. If this subject is notable, start all over with better coverage of claims as reported in reliable sources... JFHJr (㊟) 05:06, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: While as a queer person myself, I am very sympathetic to the subject as a victim of crime, I have real concerns that I share with others who have written about this. My biggest concerns are BLP and TNT. The main claims to notability are the same as those that contribute to violations of our BLP rules.

Article has substantial issues including general copy-editing, severe lack of sources for much of what is stated, and is a general mishmash of actual "invasions", speculative ideas about potential invasions, and (until recent edits) covering completely non-related topics such as nuclear and cyberattacks.

- Draftify Even with the nom's rightful removal of sci-fi cryptofacist fanfiction that took the article completely off the rails, this article is in need of serious help and sourcing, maybe even an entirely new title. As is, 'invasion' is doing very heavy lifting here, as only Pearl Harbor and Imperial Army attempts to get to the mainland during WWII could really be considered as such. Nate • (chatter) 00:05, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. A reasonable person could absolutely make the case that putting all these disparate events into one article isn't WP:OR, but it feels like OR to me. The burning of DC during the War of 1812 and Pearl Harbor and the start of the Mexican-American War are all important events that should (and do) have their own coverage, but putting them all together without directly addressing that they are in most respects very different events seems like the passive suggestion of a connection that may not be merited in fact or sourcing. I think it's possible to write an article that is not subject to this problem, but it would look very different from this one. Off the top of my head, it's that "invasion" suggests that one party was the aggressor, and the relationships between America-Britain, America-Mexico, and America-Japan right before the invasion events were all very different.

- Hello IP - the article is titled
- Delete or draftify IP points out several nice sources above, but none of them are used in this article. It could be reasonable to write about Pakistan's internet culture and use of memes (if if's even distinct from anywhere else), but that is not this article. Here is just five specific incidents. Just because something was briefly trending on Twitter does not make it a "phenomenon" or notable. Surely there are many thousands of videos that have gone viral or resulted in a hashtag, but this not the place to compile anything that "generated trolling on social media" or resulted in people making memes. The global internet culture has changed so that many topics see brief fame, but Wikipedia is not the place to synthesize them like this. Reywas92Talk 01:09, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: 2A04:4A43:8F7F:FCB8:465:8EEC:4116:BE64 presented sources that deal with the topic as a set, so that the list meets the requirement for notability. If the sources, that can be added at any time, are judged to focus only on (a list of) memes and/or the name of the page is considered inaccurate, then rename List of Internet memes in Pakistan. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 15:24, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
- Firstly, I like to repeat that the article is titled
Internet phenomena in Pakistan
but the sources IP provided above primarily focus on some memes without mentioning the subject of the article which isInternet phenomena in Pakistan
. So how can it be claimed that thelist meets the requirement for notability
when the coverage does not even discuss the subject? And suggesting it to rename to List of Internet memes in Pakistan raises the question of whether such lists are generally permissible? Typically, WP does not host such lists, although every country may have its own memes. This would be like having List of Internet memes in the United States or List of Internet memes in India. Pointless. Right? And sure If we were to pursue this, the list must meet WP:NLIST / WP:STANDALONE , which requires coverage directly about the list itself, not merely individual memes. This topic clearly fails WP:LISTCRITERIA so let's please avoid WP:SYNTH, WP:NOTDIRECTORY, WP:INDISCRIMINATE etc. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 16:02, 4 July 2024 (UTC)- I'll repeat myself too, then. I explained why I think this list does meet WP:NLIST: there are reliable sources discussing the subject as a set. Renaming it is just an adjustment restricting the scope (memes being Internet phenomena). Permissible, yes, very much so, for the reason that it meets the guideline about lists. Feel free to create lists of Internet memes in other countries if you have the time and interest and you can find sources. It is certainly not pointless, no, since you're asking me. The rest of the guidelines you mention etc. is not exactly necessary if you read my !vote with attention but thank you for your time and effort.

- Keep and rename to List of Internet memes in Pakistan per Mushy Yank. Meets WP:NLIST which says
... a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list. The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been.
and WP:NEXIST saysNotability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article
These memes are discussed as a set in Urdu references as well such as [31], [32], [33], [34] in reputed publication like BBC Urdu. 91.74.118.185 (talk) 23:23, 11 July 2024 (UTC)- To establish WP:N based on GNG, you've provided total 04 sources but all from the same publication, BBC Urdu and per GNG
Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability.
However, that's not my primary concern. What I'm worried about is whether we truly need a List of Internet memes in Pakistan as I don't believe it still passes the WP:N test. Generally, we don't create stand-alone lists like "List of X" unless X itself is a well-established encyclopedic topic with its own standalone articles. In this case, none of the memes or phenomena have their own standalone articles, which raises concerns about potentially violating WP:INDISCRIMINATE - a policy on avoiding indiscriminate collections of information. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 06:09, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

I'm not aware of any jurisdiction which passes legislation that quickly, except in extraordinary circumstances. This is just another news story that will be forgotten about by the time there's any lasting impact. That's the reason for all the Wikilawyering and other maneuvering I see going on, just like any number of other news stories that are (almost) immediately AFD'ed and defended based on the mere presence of X number of citations.

Was nominated via proposed deletion for the reason "None of the included references appear to be significant coverage from a reliable source." PROD was removed with the rationale "irrespective of WP:USEFUL, my recollection is notability is lowered for open-source? No time for source hunting so if convinced, please take to AfD, but would be a shame" So, the person doing the removal thinks it would be a shame, thinks there might be some sort of carve-out of notability standards for open-source software, but can't be bothered to verify that or to look for better sourcing. I don't think any of those are valid reasons to decline a nomination, but that's how PROD works so here we are. Just Step Sideways from this world ..... today 18:09, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

- Notability isn't really the issue here. The real issue is that this is a WP:COATRACK that talks primarily about topics other than setuptools. Some of those topics may fit better in other places like pip (package manager) or Python Package Index.

The company has also received a lot of less-in-depth coverage about their games.

- Delete although I suppose a redirect wouldn't hurt. All I found were sales sites (in Finnish). If there are reviews they would be in Finnish newspapers and journals and I would not be able to locate or search those. I note that there are other books in the list in Kaari Utrio that also have no sources and virtually no content, e.g. Porvarin morsian. It looks like a bit of cleanup is needed.

- Dinamani is not a secondary independent source (subject was editor here). Sahapedia is a non-profit organization source with passing comments. Madras musings is poor with passing comments on the subject. Google book short stories (fiction) is unreliable and fails verification. Google book "in those days there was no coffee" fails verification. Pdf file by Srinivas is poor with only a passing comment (the comment also begins with "it is said that....) and the page directly copied the line from the pdf file. The last google source Tamil prose after Bharathi has no significant coverage either and all it says "Chockalingam published his magazine, Gandhi, again at a very cheap price (quarter ana). Later, he became the editor of the Dinamani. He had the skill to express ideas emotionally and with youthful verve in lively Tamil." Its same repeated on all other sources that he became editor of the Dhimani. No significant and indepth coverage on his biography, work as journalist and to be even notable as freedom fighter. RangersRus (talk) 13:55, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- He died more than 50 years ago; it's not as if he exercises any control over Dinamani. Being a non-profit has no bearing on reliability. BIO, NEXIST, NPOL all indicate the thresholds for notability which are firmly established here. Best to let others express their views. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 14:21, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

- Comment Draftifying cannot be a substitute for deletion; the point of AfD is to determine notability, not assess the quality of an article's current content. Moreover, an article is *less* likely to be improved in draft space. Chockalingam is discussed on four pages (144, 146, 148, 157) of A.

- Comment: In regards to the discussion above, per the notability guidelines for people "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability." It appears there is in-depth coverage of Chockalingam but most of that isn't in English (here's an example of such a book). However, there is still plenty of coverage in English to prove notability, especially by combining reliable sources per the above guideline. For example, I just added a citation to the article from The Guardian which said Chockalingam was a "pioneering Tamil journalist," while the Encyclopaedia of Indian Literature described him as one of the most important nationalist journalists in Tamil. --SouthernNights (talk) 14:35, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Article based upon one source which has been cited 4 times, plus a second more cited source that has nothing to do with the topic. The page was previously deleted, and as part of NPR I tagged a newly created version for questionable notability, no significant scientific coverage and in need of better sourcing to avoid a future AfD. Editor User:TakuyaMurata immediately removed the maintenance tag of notability claiming that a Google search indicates that it is notable; I find no evidence of this. Hence time for an AfD as not notable for a more complete discussion. Ldm1954 (talk) 15:49, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: Perhaps the previous AfD Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mass dimension one fermions is helpful here. There does seem to exist some sufficient amount of publications to justify the notability (please Google with “elko field” too). According to the previous AfD, there is some coi issue, which I cannot tell just from looking at the article alone. But at least the notability is considered, it looked ok to me. Needless to say, the more citations and references there are the better (and more such are probably needed). —- Taku (talk) 16:01, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Just saying "Google it" is absolutely useless for determining notability. What reliable, independent, secondary sources exist now that didn't exist in 2020? XOR'easter (talk) 17:54, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Maybe not new. But in order to determine if the topic is notable or not, we just look at the amount/quality of publications: Google is a standard way to see that. I suppose you can create the appearance of research activities by citing each other (not saying this one is). That’s not a good practice but Wikipedia isn’t a place to judge whether certain research activities are genuine or not. —- Taku (talk) 18:07, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- No, Google is not "a standard way to see" how much relevant, peer-reviewed material there is on a topic. General-purpose Google has never been good for that — and grows worse by the day — and even Google Scholar is only useful if employed carefully. What peer-reviewed publications, not written by the original inventors of this idea, discuss it in depth? Name three. XOR'easter (talk) 18:25, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- I don’t think it matters much whether some papers are independent of the creator of the theory. In some field, the originators have a very strong influence; that doesn’t mean the theory is not notable in the eyes of Wikipedia. As a research activity, that’s too promotional and problematic? Perhaps, but again in Wikipedia we don’t judge the quality of the research. I know especially for biographical articles, we need secondary sources but research articles are somehow different (again because of the way some research topics are pursued). The existence of the textbook I mentioned below especially seems a very strong indication for the notability, since the publisher thinks the topic is worth publishing. —- Taku (talk) 18:35, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, it very much matters, by policy. A textbook by one of the authors of the original publication is not an independent source. It's very much the opposite of an independent source. XOR'easter (talk) 18:39, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Like I said above, some research topic just doesn’t develop independent of the originator. That should not be a ground for non-notability. Of course, the textbook isn’t an independent source but, unlike bio articles, it doesn’t mean it is not a reliable source; that part of policy isn’t about like textbooks that can be cited. If interpreted literally, it’s like you can’t cite Grothendieck since he is involved in the creation of scheme theory. It doesn’t work that way when we cover scientific topics; throughout Wikipedia, we do cite plenty of textbooks that are not independent of the subject. —- Taku (talk) 18:47, 5 July 2024 (UTC) (To add, it seems there is a conflict of reliability: in academia, a primary source is usually considered more reliable than the secondary one.

- For scientific topics, I think a primary textbook can be counted towards the notablity. We have the notability criterion in part because we need reliable sources to write an article. For scientific articles, primary sources can be reliable (arguably more reliable in some instances). So, the existence of such sources could and should be a ground for the notability. Here, it is important to note that the textbook in question is published from a reputable publisher not a self-publishing book. —- Taku (talk) 09:52, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

- Of course, a primary paper isn’t sufficient. A textbook seems different though: not anyone can publish a textbook (except self-publishing ones). A textbook from a reputable publisher thus should count something. (I guess, in a sense, you can say a textbook isn’t completely primary; it comes with a sort of authorization from a publisher.) Taku (talk) 20:38, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- By the exact same logic, a published paper wouldn't be "primary", because it "comes with a sort of authorization from a publisher". Moreover, the book you linked is a monograph, not a textbook: it's a single-author work in which the author describes their own research. Cambridge UP has printed dozens of those. Some of them are on notable topics, others perhaps not. XOR'easter (talk) 21:53, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- The difference is that monographs (yes, I should have said textbook or monograph as the book is a monograph) are more selective and fewer than journal papers. A reputable series like the Cambridge one does not publish books on topics that are fringe or of marginal research interest. In that way, being part of the series gives the topic a sort of authority; in fact, we often use some selective list or awards to determine a given topic is notable or not (and the Cambridge series is independent of the subject). I agree some topic covered in the series is something quite personal, something inseparable from the author. But as said above, I don’t think that is a problem. A one-man’s work can be perfectly notable. Taku (talk) 12:35, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Because of this, even in Wikipedia, for scientific articles, we often prefer to cite textbooks by the authors close to the subject than the secondary ones. —- Taku (talk) 19:04, 5 July 2024 (UTC))
- Yes, it very much matters, by policy. A textbook by one of the authors of the original publication is not an independent source. It's very much the opposite of an independent source. XOR'easter (talk) 18:39, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- I don’t think it matters much whether some papers are independent of the creator of the theory. In some field, the originators have a very strong influence; that doesn’t mean the theory is not notable in the eyes of Wikipedia. As a research activity, that’s too promotional and problematic? Perhaps, but again in Wikipedia we don’t judge the quality of the research. I know especially for biographical articles, we need secondary sources but research articles are somehow different (again because of the way some research topics are pursued). The existence of the textbook I mentioned below especially seems a very strong indication for the notability, since the publisher thinks the topic is worth publishing. —- Taku (talk) 18:35, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- No, Google is not "a standard way to see" how much relevant, peer-reviewed material there is on a topic. General-purpose Google has never been good for that — and grows worse by the day — and even Google Scholar is only useful if employed carefully. What peer-reviewed publications, not written by the original inventors of this idea, discuss it in depth? Name three. XOR'easter (talk) 18:25, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- By the way, there is apparently a book about the topic according to the previous AfD (I think this one [44], which isn’t a self-published one). That seems significant. Maybe the previous article was promotional in tone (which I don’t know since I can’t see the deleted article), but this article doesn’t sound promotional in tone. —- Taku (talk) 18:20, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- XOR'easter, for clarity I don't see your vote on the AfD. Ldm1954 (talk) 13:32, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Haven't had time to come to a final judgment yet. The current state of the article would incline me to !vote "delete", but I wanted to sift the literature myself first. XOR'easter (talk) 16:39, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Maybe not new. But in order to determine if the topic is notable or not, we just look at the amount/quality of publications: Google is a standard way to see that. I suppose you can create the appearance of research activities by citing each other (not saying this one is). That’s not a good practice but Wikipedia isn’t a place to judge whether certain research activities are genuine or not. —- Taku (talk) 18:07, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: The Vanity Fair article is alright, but there isn't really anything outside of that. The other articles cited are all primarily about the family, which don't count towards notability per WP:INHERIT. For example, this index.hu source (cited in the article) roughly translates to "this is how the great-grandchildren of the last Hungarian king, Zsófia and Ildikó Habsburg, live." The article is based on the fact that they are the great-grandchildren of the king. It's possible this could be redirected somewhere but I can't find a suitable target; ping me if you find one.

- Unknown date seems irrelevant. The date of the next election in most Westminster-style governments is always unknown until just weeks prior, either because of a lack of any fixed election schedule or because of the ability to call snap elections even where a fixed date nominally exists. There have been "next general election" articles for many of these in the past, including the UK. They usually state that the election must take place "no later than," or "on or before," a certain date. So comparison can easily be made with others of the same type (e.g. Next New Zealand general election, Next Australian federal election, 45th Canadian federal election.) Lack of sources or relevance could still be a valid reason to delete in theory, but the date has nothing to do with it. Zachldl (talk) 17:25, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

- To elaborate on why I think it has been the practice and how it's helpful: for readers not familiar with the UK system of a parliament having a maximum duration but no minimum duration, clicking through from the most recent completed election to the "Next election" article gives them a quick rundown of how the system of dissolving Parliament and calling a new election works, and explains why there is no specific date attached, unlike for example the next French presidential election. It's better to have that information available in one place together with the specific information about how that system applies to the next election than to require readers to search elsewhere.

The sources are available online, and I literally added the three first Google results in a rutinary search. Plus, the fact that there were sources on the subject already less than 24 hours after the previous election was over says quite a lot about the topic's notability.

I'm really not sure what this discussion is meant to achieve. Chessrat (talk, contributions) 20:25, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Precedent has always had the 'next' article created immediately after the previous election. I don't know why this is considered 'not notable': it is literally a general election that will occur at some point in the future, issues such as target seats for the next election are already relevant and we will have an opinion poll at some point in the next few weeks. The media will almost certainly start discussing it almost immediately anyway.Mozartnut (talk) 21:45, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep Precedent has provided for the creation of next election articles for UK elections immediately after the election has been held. It also meets the notability requirement as people are already discussing the next election. If polling is the issue, as you noted above, I'd like to point out the first polls for the election we just had were conducted just one month after the 2019 election. Polling for the 2019 election began even quicker, with the first polls being conducted just two days after the 2017 election. Point is that we'll have polls sooner rather than later, so if we delete this article we'll just have to bring it right back again. PlateOfToast (talk) 23:24, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

It may have been a little early to already have an article for the next general election, but since it's already here, no point of deleting, since we all know that some day it'll need to be created in either ways.

- Keep - I have used used this page regularly as my first point of reference (its an old link cleared down and updated to reflect the occurrence 2024 General Election) in the past as it held details of all the parliamentary polls during a Government's 5 year term and the next polls will be released in the next few weeks if not days and given the tenuous nature of Labour's victory (only 34% of the vote) changes in polling could well have a significant impact on the course of this government from the outset. There is nothing that focuses a member of Parliaments mind more than a poll suggesting they might lose their seat. Equally in the longer term it sets the mood for all the local elections that occur in the 5 years before the next mandatory General election (it is feasible albeit in this case unlikely there could be a General before the 5 year maximum) so this page is relevant pretty much immediately. Not only that the way the page has been structured in the past it identifies major events such as the change of a party leader in a way that allows analysis of how that change impacts the party's fortunes in the polls. The Conservative leader is standing down so as their leadership transition progresses polling is like to reflect that. Consequently the idea that the information on this page will not be relevant for 5 years is false. it is relevant almost immediately and because it acts as a poll tracker of all UK Parliamentary polls for that Parliament its relevant throughout the whole length of that Parliament.
- Keep Last Thursday, as far as I know, will not be the last ever general election in the UK. There will be more opinion polls published soon as well (primarily, initially, to test approval levels of the new government). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stevecgit (talk • contribs) 20:25, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - the 2024 election page was created in October 2019 and survived a AFD, 2019 election page was created about the same time as the 2017 election etc, Don't see the point of an AFD as it seems traditional for an article of the next election to be created soon after the last one and there already has 6 refs and more are probably out there so I think this is an easy keep.

As for whether the polling data is verifiable or not, all the polling companies publish their political polling results on their web sites so if you feel the need to check them its very easy to do. How verifiable other links might be I do not know and it may be that odd links are not satisfactory but that in itself no reason to remove the page, just the link. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.65.1.29 (talk) 20:05, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

This is a 1,342-word article about the company and its pretzel flavors. The article notes: "Dot's Pretzels was founded by Dorothy "Dot" Henke. Dot originally created the recipe for the popular pretzels in her home kitchen in North Dakota as a homemade snack for friends and family. The seasoned pretzel twists she came up with while experimenting one holiday season were so well received that she decided to turn her culinary creation into a business—and Dot's Pretzels was born. ... Why Are Dot's Pretzels So Expensive? Dot's Pretzels tend to be pricier than some other pretzel brands. There are a few reasons for this. First and foremost, a lot more goes into baking these braided pretzel twists than just mixing them together, adding some salt flakes, and calling it a day."

- Keep One question to consider before identifying the appropriate guidelines - since this article is about a "brand", what guidelines apply? A brand is neither a company nor a "product" per se, therefore strictly speaking WP:NCORP doesn't apply. Equally though, if it is a "brand", we therefore require sources that talk to the topic - that is, the brand. Sources that talk only about individual products under the brand are discussions about a product. Cunard has identified several sources that talk about the brand - that is the "range" of individual products - and that sourcing meets WP:GNG criteria. For example, this in Parade provide a good overview of the brand, as does this in the Star Tribune. HighKing++ 18:49, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

The book notes: "Prosciutto means "ham" in Italian, and only the best ham legs are used to make this delicacy. Air curing, careful aging, hand rubbing, and even a properly aged building makes John Volpi & Company's "Splendor Brand" America's best prosciutto."
The book notes: "John Volpi came to St. Louis from Milan in 1898. He was a sausage-maker by trade, and word spread of the quality of the work he did for local households. Soon, he was shipping sausage to Chicago and New York. He founded the Volpi Company in 1905 and his brother-in-law, Gino Pasetti, became his partner. Armando Pasetti immigrated to America in 1938 and inherited the company in 1957 after the elder Pasetti and Volpi died within a vear of each other. There are now fifteen people working at the plant, which produces 30,000 to 40,000 prosciuttos a year."

The book notes: "In the close-knit, lively St. Louis neighborhood known as the Hill," writes St. Louis native Bill Sertl, "food is the tie that binds and satisfies. A one-square-mile Italian stronghold just west of Downtown and the Gateway Arch, the Hill-where about 75 percent of the residents are still of Italian ancestry (the first Italians arrived here in the 1880s)—is home to shops like Volpi Italian Foods, producer of some of the best salami and prosciutto in America. Above the meat cases are vintage photographs, one of a delivery truck in the '40s and another of company founder John Volpi. Pudgy sausages hang from the rafters, and the countertops are crammed with impulse buys—Italian licorice, chocolate-covered coffee beans, packages of dried porcini. Overseeing the whole operation is Armando Pasetti, an outgoing Lombard who is John Volpi's nephew and who took over the company after his uncle's death in 1957."

The book notes: "Volpi Packing Company was founded by Mr. John Volpi, who has been assisted for many years past by Mr. Gino Pasetti. It manufactures salami after the Italian style such as Genoa mortadella, capicollo, soppresse, prosciutti, coppa, etc., known all over the country as "Splendor Brand." As a matter of fact, the Volpi products are sold from Chicago to New Orleans, from New York to San Francisco. The Volpi plant is one of the few of its kind among Italians in the United States, and owes its rapid growth and steady expansion to the superiority of its quality and to the attention that many years of experience have taught Mr. Volpi to give his products, which in 1922 were awarded a Gold Medal at the Cremona (Italy) Exhibition. After all, twenty-nine years of ever growing business speak for the confidence that people have in the Volpi products."

The lauded local company is known across the country for its artisan cured meats, which are still made from recipes dating back to the early 1900s.

The result was keep. For Redirect to be a valid alternative to deletion, there has to be a P&G-based consensus against a standalone article, which wasn't the case here. All the Delete/Redirect views were based on the fact that this director had only one released film, making Redirect an easy option. However, as all Keep views pointed out, the relevant notability guideline - WP:FILMMAKER - says nothing about the number of films, only about their notability, which suggests the easy option is not necessarily the right one. WP:TOOSOON is a useful essay, but it doesn't supercede our notability guidelines. And as some pointed out here, critical acclaim is irrelevant; critical attention matters, whether positive or not, but isn't required. Owen× ☎ 13:42, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Main issue: the 2nd film of the director never released --> WP:TOOEARLY. This guy only directed one released film, not meeting Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative professionals since the film received mixed reviews. The notabliity guidleine states that the director creates a "well-known work or collective body of work". As of 2024, the work is not well known, it is a single film with mixed reviews, not a critically acclaimed film. I don't know if a writeup by an assistant professor at American College, Madurai holds any weightage but that info can be added to Penguin, the director's only released film. The deletion was caused by an undo of a redirect to Penguin. Long sources are mainly direct interviews about Penguin, not independent. Acting roles seem minor and not notable.
If anybody who directs one film, gets an article, doesn't this set a bad precedent. The film didn't win a National Award or any award for that matter.
This source [62] talks about six films including Penguin, all of this information pertaining to Penguin should be moved to the film article. This director can be notable after more of his works release. DareshMohan (talk) 22:36, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Note: if you are wondering what the contents of source #7 is, it is here: [63] The story focuses on the pain and struggles suffered by the female lead. A pregnant woman remembers her child who went missing years ago. After the child’s missing, her husband started becoming toxic by saying she was the reason for the loss and separated ways from her. Later after years, a male character was shown who accepted her as she is and started living happily with her. No strong characterization or importance was given to both these male roles. They are just part of the screenplay
.
That's just the plot of the film. How is it scholarly analysis? The assistant professor mentioned above [64] (page 100) is the only significant analysis but that is of the film and can be added to Penguin.

- Keep: This seems like a bad-faith nomination and I believe you are upset about your friend, User:Monhiroe's autopatrolled rights being removed. You first edited this article on 8 October 2023, what changed your mind between then and 19 June, 2024, when you redirected it? Did it take eight months for you to judge its notability? On 19 June, you skimmed through all the articles I have ever created and made some changes on three of them [65][66][67]. Was it to check which ones you could nominate for deletion but couldn't find any, so you thought Eashvar Karthic was borderline because he had only one film and chose to redirect it? Is this how you get back at an editor who may have upset your friend?
- The notice you have posted at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film/Indian cinema task force is not neutral and did not follow WP:APPNOTE. Is your nomination rationale so weak that you are trying to discredit a source simultaneously?
- Notability
- The main issue you have mentioned in you nomination rationale is countered by WP:FILMMAKER#3 where it explicitly mentions significant or well-known work. It need not be a collective body of work.
- I believe the film receiving mixed reviews has no weightage here as we are not debating for WP:FILMMAKER#4c
As of 2024, the work is not well known, it is a single film with mixed reviews, not a critically acclaimed film.
- Adding to my previous comments above, the film has been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, which can be verified by checking Penguin (film).- Apart from the above, the film has been cited in journals for three completely different reasons: A film that discusses women-centric films, OTT during the COVID-19 pandemic and representation of the subaltern.
- If you had taken the time to read through Source #7, you would have known that the PDF you have linked is another journal that has cited the original source #7's work. In the PDF you have linked, Penguin (film) was selected as one of the films out of all the other women-centric films that were released in 2020. The scholarly analysis is in the findings and conclusion section of the same PDF. The journal entry's objective is independent of the subject, so it's absurd to ask for an analysis about the film when the objective is different.
- FWIW, here is another journal that extensively cites the subject's work.
- There is significant coverage about the subject and their work. Penguin (film) has also received independent periodical articles, reviews and cited in multiple journals, thereby passing the WP:FILMMAKER criteria. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 09:02, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hello Jeraxmoira, I completely agree with you on the notability of this director and, like you, I do indeed disagree with DareshMohan's interpretation of the guideline in the present case, but is your very aggressive opening statement absolutely necessary?

- Comment: I agree with the analyses of Mushy Yank and Jeraxmoira wrt Penguin meeting GNG via sufficient reviews, thus Karthic automatically passing NCREATIVE#3 and therefore being automatically considered notable by the wording of NCREATIVE's header. I don't like it, but individual AFDs aren't a great place to overrule clear guidelines so I've started a discussion at NBIO Talk because NCREATIVE#3 is clearly a much lower standard (at the lower bound) from the other criteria. That also said, I also suspect that when Zebra is released that it will also receive more than sufficient reviews to pass NFILM[68][69], there will be no good single redirect target, and Karthic will pass my proposed modified NCREATIVE#3 anyway, so a WP:NOPAGE redirect would likely be short-lived. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 09:03, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Monhiroe and RangersRus, there is is no policy based rationale in your Delete/Redirect votes.

- Sorry I do not find his work significant or noteworthy that has received a wide critical acclaim or award or even considered for a remake by other makers.

- Redirect to the article for Karthic's only released film, "Penguin." He's only directed one film. It got mixed reviews and needs more coverage. So, he still needs to meet the notability guidelines for creative professionals. We must redirect the page to keep the relevant information about his directorial role in the film. This placement is better until he releases more work and meets notability standards.--AstridMitch (talk) 01:23, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews"?

Non-notable political candidate and author who made himself a Wikipedia page. Of the 6 articles cited on the page: 1 is the candidate list on the Alaska Divison of Elections website; one is a WP:ROTM article from Anchorage Daily News which has 1 sentence about Claesson; 1 is a page on "glamourgirlsofthesilverscreen.com" on which the only mention of Claesson is the inclusion of his book in a "recommended books" list; 1 is an article he wrote; 1 is a press release; and the final is a Los Angeles Times article by "Lawrence Graner" apparently written about him. Strangely enough, this article can't be found online, despite the fact that it was published in May 2023; the link in the citation leads to a paywalled Newspapers.com page, and I can't find any evidence that anyone by the name Lawrence Graner has ever written for the LA Times. Regardless, I don't think these cited articles are enough to determine notability; I can't find anything better on Google, and he doesn't seem to have any other claim to notability.

His proof is a Facebook post from some random person who admits they "have no evidence of this." BottleOfChocolateMilk (talk) 20:29, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- A few things:
- 1. I didn't make multiple accounts. That's a lie.
- 2. I didn't leave a threatening message. That's a lie.
- 3. There is a lot more evidence that he's being paid to do this stuff, including an article that someone else posted a link to above. There are similar allegations made against him by moderators on his 'talk' page.
- 4. I'd advise people to look at BottleOfChocolateMilk's 'talk' page and see the countless allegations of fraud, unprofessionalism, and bias that he has.
- 5. I'm under the impression that BottleOfChocolateMilk doesn't have any authority or power in his life, so he's using Wikipedia as an outlet to feel powerful.

That Samuelrclaesson should not have created Samuel Claesson is indisputable. But what I'm also seeing, are more serious allegations towards this editor. ANI requires evidence and diffs, not just accusations like we see on this page. BottleOfChocolateMilk you've made a lot of accusations, not the least of which is socking - i.e. creating multiple accounts.

- Keep: As a response to @208.58.205.56, The Nation looks like a reliable source and is green on the Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Perennial_sources list and there is no consensus for The Mercury News and Grist.com. However those three articles are about winners of the award, not significant coverage about the award itself. There are other sources such as Yale University ([[[81]]]), University of New Hampshire ([[[82]]]), and Institute of Competition Sciences ([[[83]]]), that discuss the background of the award. I think this at least merits to be kept as a stub and/or a list.Prof.PMarini (talk) 06:45, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect - Earth Island Institute - The problem with the Yale, University of New Hampshire and Institute of Competition Sciences pages are that these are all non independent/primary links for people wanting to apply for the award. What I am not seeing is any source that demonstrates this award is notable, by which some secondary source talks about it as a thing in itself, and not as "our student won" or "this is how to apply". It is not a huge award, but it is an award of Earth Island Institute whose notability is indicated in having a page. That page has one line on these awards that could be expanded with one of Prof.PMarini's sources to describe the award (information that is not clearly on the page, so not a merge), and that is then all we really need. Rather than keeping this as a stub, per Prof.PMarini, we can keep that information where it sits in the context of the institute's work. The redirect preserves page history should this become notable by secondary sources taking notice, and the long list of winners can go because Wikipedia is not a database (WP:NOT), and this is all unsourced and outdated. There are 5 years missing. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:21, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to Earth Island Institute. The program seems fairly well-established and is a reasonable search term. However, the sources mentioned here and in the article itself each mostly focus on a single winner as a local human-interest story; sources that cover all of the winners of an award would be significant coverage of the event as opposed to the person, but that doesn't seem to be available here. The sources that don't fall into this category are just listings of scholarship information that seem more like database entries. RunningTiger123 (talk) 01:45, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

You are on a rampage of nominating my Turkish topic articles for deletion after making the bold accusation that I am “trying to make the Turkish government look bad”.
