The result was no consensus. There isn't consensus that this is in fact crystalballing; several people argue that sources indicate that this is likely to happen soon and are covering it already.  Sandstein  09:54, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Next Conservative Party (UK) leadership election (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The existence of this article violates WP:CRYSTAL. That page specifies that future events should only have articles 'if the event is notable and almost certain to take place'. While it is certain that the UK Conservative party will have another leadership election at some point, there's no fixed schedule for doing so, and currently there is no vacancy. Theresa May has declared that she intends to remain as leader until the next general election, meaning the next leadership election may not be until 2022 or later. While there has been plenty of media speculation about if and when she might resign or be replaced as leader, it seems to me that there's no need for an article on the next leadership election until it is actually called. (Or, by fairness, we ought to have Next Labour Party (UK) leadership election as well; that's currently a redirect, but it was previously deleted at AFD on the grounds of being pure speculation, just like this is.)

  • Delete Per WP:CRYSTAL. I think the nomination sums it up pretty well. I have to say I came across this page a little while ago and was tempted to nominate it for deletion myself as the entire article is just speculation --Crasstun (talk | contributions) 00:25, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Both per WP:CRYSTAL, and because the article as titled would become obsolete whenever the next Conservative Party leadership election actually took place (since it would no longer be the "next" election, but the just past one). PohranicniStraze (talk) 02:36, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep WP:CRYSTAL as I understand it doesn't prohibit this article. This is a notable event that is 'almost certain to happen'. As WP:CRYSTAL explicitly says, 'dates are not definite until the event actually takes place', so I don't follow why a lack of a set timeline means that this article shouldn't exist. PohranicniStraze's argument that the article should be deleted as if it stays it will need its name changed doesn't make sense to me: what about Next United Kingdom general election? What about other election articles without fixed terms? To quote WP:CRYSTAL again: 'if preparation for the event is not already in progress, speculation about it must be well documented'. There is no need for original research because as with the next US Presidential and the next UK general elections, there is a lot of speculation to document and draw upon from reliable sources: the well-documented speculation WP:CRYSTAL requires. Robofish says the same in their nomination at the top. I can't see how deletion is a view based on policy. Ralbegen (talk) 07:56, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    I recognise that we do have other articles about future elections. I would say the difference is that by law, there has to be another general election within 5 years; that is definitely going to happen. But there doesn't have to be another Conservative party leadership election any time soon. I recognise there has been a lot of media commentary about this, but it could always be merged somewhere else, like Premiership of Theresa May and Second May ministry. By the way, I noted that Labour Party (UK) leadership election, 2007 was created as far back as April 2006, long before there was any official announcement that Tony Blair would resign[1], so by that comparison maybe this one's OK. But I'd like to see what other users think. Robofish (talk) 15:30, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:CRYSTAL uses the phrase 'almost certain to happen', which I think this election is. The only circumstances under which there will be no Next Conservative Party (UK) leadership election is if May's leadership lasts until the end of the party. There's no reasonable doubt that it is going to happen, and it has received significant coverage, so I think it should stay — and I definitely don't think that it violates WP:CRYSTAL, as both your nomination and all three delete !votes have relied on. Ralbegen (talk) 20:35, 15 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. When the next Conservative leadership has been help, this will have to be renamed "Last Conservative Leadership Election". Vorbee (talk) 08:02, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep We follow reliable sources: that's the basic principle here. We are drowning in reliable sources discussing the next Conservative Party leadership election. That it hasn't been formally called is beside the point. There are events unfolding now and over the last few months that are part of the process and everyone knows it (and is describing it in reliable source publications). The article is not speculation because it is describing manoeuvering and activity happening now. Bondegezou (talk) 14:53, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep they had a Next Conservative Party (UK) leadership election for the 2016 leadership election. so its quite fitting for they as well have one for this next election. Torygreen84 (talk) 05:44, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. It's trivially easy to do a Google search and find multiple in-depth sources discussing the next Conservative leadership election. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 01:15, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. WP:CRYSTAL only applies to future events where there aren't enough sources to confirm that the event WILL happen by normal means OR if the event is too fat out into the future. And as far as I can tell, this article passes both criteria. ToThAc (talk) 15:26, 18 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Notability and complete lack of sourcing.

Possibly rename to "Staplers Road, Newport, Isle of Wight" which is a demonstrable real road and does probably give its name to some minor area around it. But even then, there's no evident sourcing out there to support even that much. Andy Dingley (talk) 22:20, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Then perhaps you'd care to add some of those "plenty of sources". Because if they aren't there, they don't count. And in what way is this area "historic"? What happened here? Where is that recorded? I don't dispute that there is a long road called "Staplers Road" running out of Newport and such roads do tend to give their name to places, but it needs to demonstrably pass WP:GNG if it's to stay. WP:GEOLAND does not overrule this, as there is no indication that the area has any sort of legal recognition under this name. Andy Dingley (talk) 00:05, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding the history note this 1866 Ordnance Survey map features the hamlets of Staplers, North Staplers and Little Staplers, as well as the geographic features Staplers Hill, Staplers Heath and Staplers Copse, as well as Staplers Turnpike and Staplers Farm.--Pontificalibus (talk) 11:53, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Besides the good points made by Pontificalibus, note that, in no case, does WP:GEOLAND suggest that anything be deleted because there's always the option of merging into some broader geographical region. Andrew D. (talk) 12:05, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete If there are sources out there, I'm having difficulty finding them. Searching for "Staplers" alone brings up mainly devices for inserting staples. Searching for "Staplers" and "Isle of Wight" or "Staplers" and "Newport" both bring up mentions, but mostly only for traffic incidents. Not saying that the term doesn't have relevance for locals, but it doesn't seem to have wider notability sufficient to meet WP:GNG. PohranicniStraze (talk) 02:44, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per this source and the sources linked therefrom: [2]. Also discussed in Hockey, S.F. Quarr Abbey and Its Lands, 1132-1631. p. 73. ISBN 9780718510879.--Pontificalibus (talk) 11:43, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Is that using the road's name to describe an area? Or is it claiming that the road takes its name from an earlier name of Stakelhurst or Staplehurst for the area? If so, that would be a good claim for it, but the sourcing is still a bit vague. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:31, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I am pretty sure the road would have been named later. The source I gave describes Staplehurst as a parcel of land which was a constituent part of a Manor and then it became a Monastic grange. So it was first an area of land, and by the nineteenth century had become known as a settlement outside of Newport (e.g. https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=9jsAAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA135 1). For geographic places with sources supporting their historical existence I would tend to err on the side of keep at AfD because it's highly likely that sufficient sources could be found offline in historical documents and archives, should someone be inclined to look for them. If we look to WP:GEO the relevant part would be "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. Even abandoned places can remain notable, because notability encompasses their entire history." It may or not be a "legally recognised place" at the moment, having been subsumed into Newport, but it certainly was historically. --Pontificalibus (talk) 09:19, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. It's clear this isn't a straight deletion, which is really the important decision. Beyond that, opinion is pretty much split between keeping it stand alone vs. a merge/redirect to Ben Affleck. MichaelQSchmidt proposed some sources, and nobody refuted them, so I'm going to assume they're legitimate. If people want to continue to discuss the possibility of a merge or redirect, that can happen on the article's talk page without need for further AfD involvement. -- RoySmith (talk) 01:04, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a notable film. The only claim of notability is its relation to Ben Affleck, and WP:NOTINHERIT.

  • Comment - I'm going to abstain from voting having been the one to decline the speedy deletion tag. The notability of the person is definitely a bit shady, although not enough to warrant an undiscussed deletion. I'll put forth some of my findings here for others to judge:
  1. Ref 1 from the article - translated and archived - Here, the wording of the section titled "What was the impact of the birth and death of Boniface and the death of the Queen on the situation of Jagiello?" and some of the content under it appears to point to relevance of the death of Elizabeth. Here the death of Elizabeth is given some importance as destabilizing her father's rule to an extent as he lost his only heir.
  2. Secondly, the Elizabeth's horoscope has also had a couple of mentions: Here the horoscope is said to be drawn by a controversial astrologer of the time (which is arguably not a worthy mention) and here the horoscope is called the first "real horoscope" on Polish lands (again, the source is a blog so that weakens its credibility).
I got most of the information above from the sources themselves. There may be more, or perhaps not enough. Jiten Dhandha • talk • contributions • 21:39, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Question: Hi User:Unscintillating, or others, can you explain more, please? It appears this is an issue about splitting out content to sub-articles or not, which is an editing decision. Is AFD the wrong forum to get consensus to proceed with merging them back in? Perhaps similarly, I have nominated 29 split-out NRHP articles for deletion, in ongoing AFD Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bert and Fay Havens House, where I am getting rocky reception about it so far. Perhaps the problem here and there is that an RFC is needed, different than an AFD? I would be grasping, though, to explain why that would be the case. --doncram 19:22, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Here is a quote from WP:Deletion policy, oldid=797578780:
===Editing and discussion===

If editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page...

Disputes over page content are usually not dealt with by deleting the page, except in severe cases. The content issues should be discussed at the relevant talk page, and other methods of dispute resolution should be used first, such as listing on Wikipedia:Requests for comments for further input. Deletion discussions that are really unresolved content disputes may be closed by an uninvolved editor, and referred to the talk page or other appropriate forum.

"Editing" includes merging and redirecting, which also have sections at WP:Deletion policy.  I'm not familiar with the merge forum (WP:PAM?), but AFAIK there is no central forum for changing an article to a redirect.  Unscintillating (talk) 21:58, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • AfD is not a todo list for AfD volunteers. I understand the sentiment. The counterargument is also valid: An article ends up at AfD after talk page discussion and tags have produced no results -- for years in many cases. The article survived a PROD, removed by an editor who added nothing to the page. AfD, with its time element, injects an element of urgency not available elsewhere. The editor who brings a page here feels she has exhausted all other options. The number of articles deleted here shows that it is an effective tool against unnecessary pages. Rhadow (talk) 20:12, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to List of CSX Transportation lines; it's hard to imagine that a 40-mile stretch of railroad would be independently notable, and I don't believe this to be the case, per lack of sources. The entry on the list article is sufficient. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:51, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete though I'm not strongly opposed to the redirect to List of CSX Transportation lines. If the railroad wants to claim that a route is a different subdivision every 40 miles they're welcome to do so, but that doesn't make each subdivision notable. power~enwiki (π, ν) 07:00, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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

This article has been written mainly by a single editor. The editor uses primary sources for all points. Roger Reed is an Oxford academic with no particularly significant contributions beyond that expected from a research professor. No secondary sources are used and "significant coverage" is not established in violation of WP:GNG.

Another Oxford professor Jonathan A Jones argued in the PROD process that h index of 44 [1] as per google scholar is sufficient for notability, to satisfy criteria 1 of WP:ACADEMICS, and so is the fellowship of the royal academy of engineering, criteria 3 of WP:ACADEMICS.

Both of these however are insufficient as per WP:ACADEMICS guidelines. h index of 44 in google scholar (38 in Web of Science [2]) is not exceptional. Further the guidelines state "Citation measures such as the h-index, g-index, etc., are of limited usefulness." Also the guidelines state "elected memberships in minor and non-notable societies are insufficient." It is unexceptional for an academic to be accorded fellowships in learned societies and fellowship in royal academy of engineering is far less selective than say the Royal Society and is relatively mundane. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Roger_Reed for more detailed discussion regarding the guidelines.Johnnysmitha (talk) 19:16, 9 September 2017 (UTC)Johnnysmitha (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Comment: No sustained coverage found, however it did once have some level of notability -- from The Herald Vol37 ?1-3? Page 262 "Back in December 2004, Bandbaja.org, an online music review website, generated a great deal of ink for providing musicians easy access to a popular forum for their music and videos. The website was adored and publicised in numerous print articles before vanishing...". It's not really a keep with what's visible, but a redirect and mention/capsule-listing somewhere (but where...?) might be reasonable. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 05:53, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - There looks to be sufficient sourcing to satisfy GNG/BIO. Being interviewed by major papers -- when the interview constitutes the article (in its entirety or a substantial part), i.e. it's not just a quick comment about another subject or an official statement from a spokesperson -- certainly contributes to notability. If you're selected for an interview by e.g. Forbes or the New York Times that's just about the definition of notability. There are separate things that come into play when using such a source in the article, but it contributes to notability. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 00:40, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep, obviously notable. Whether the article was created as a promotional page is irrelevant.

The result was merge to (someplace such as) Fujairah#Geography. There's agreement here that this should be merged somewhere, but no clear consensus on what would be the right merge target. The suggestion to create a new article and merge all the similar mountain articles into it seems reasonable, but didn't see any discussion. So, I'll leave this as merge to somewhere, and let whoever does the actual merge figure out the details. -- RoySmith (talk) 12:30, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Merge - according to WP:GEOLAND, the mountain could be notable if there is coverage of the feature other than basic statistics. I've searched English language sources, and can't find anything other than basic statistics and user-contributed data (e.g. peakery). However, I would be willing to bet that there will be coverage in offline sources, but I have no access to such information and we may not be lucky enough to have an Emirati geographer join this discussion. Given that there is a category for Mountains of the UAE, and at least some of the articles there are similarly minimal, could these be merged into the page on Geography of the UAE? If so, who would do that work? Hence: I conclude merge so that even the minimal information does not disappear before the merge happens. Ross-c (talk) 23:02, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, hmm, there is Category:Mountains of Fujairah consisting of 30-40 articles, at least several very similar one-sentence articles like this one. They may all be merged to one new Mountains of Fujairah (currently a redlink) article which will provide more value than each of them separately, because a table there would provide context for all of them, enabling comparison of their heights and locations and including a {{GeoGroup}} template so that all the coordinates can be seen in a linked Google or OSM map, etc. Apparently Fujairah is the one mountainous emirate in the United Emirates, so covering the mountains seems offhand like a good thing. Or, is there a Mountains of the UAE article? There are list-articles about mountains elsewhere such as List of mountain peaks of Mexico and List of mountains of Texas. --doncram 03:54, 16 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I am not familiar with this guy or his field, so I won't vote. However, I don't think that people need to 'earn' Wikipedia articles. The Notability criteria wasn't created for this purpose, right?Taraella (talk) 11:56, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well, people aren't automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist. A person has to pass a notability criterion, and have the reliable source coverage needed to support it, before a Wikipedia article becomes appropriate — if you can think of a better word than "earned" to express the distinction between "everybody who exists automatically gets an article" and "only people who meet certain specific conditions get articles", then feel free to substitute it in lieu of "earned" as you read and interpret my statement.

Minor actress -- her most significant role has been as a taxi driver in Pulp Fiction -- and the article's ONLY references are two film reviews and an actor listing. Calton | Talk 17:31, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Nomination is misleading - Jones had the starring role (alongside William Baldwin) in Curdled (1996), a film for which many reviews exist. Pulp Fiction may have been her most high-profile film (in a role written for her by Tarantino), but her starring roles in Curdled, Family Secrets, and House at the End of the Drive, and significant roles in others, means she has a lot more going for her than just playing a taxi driver in one film. --Michig (talk) 21:03, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hogwash. I'd say your rebuttal is what actually counts as misleading. According to WP:NACTOR, an actor is "presumed notable" -- though not proven -- if he or she:
  1. Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.
  2. Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following.
  3. Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.
For point 1, you've got a small role in Pulp Fiction -- and no reliable source for the "written for her by Tarantino" factoid -- and a film for which the best you can say that reviews for it exist, so fail. For points 2 and 3, not even close. --Calton | Talk 03:17, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think based on the fact that it has references, but no one to integrate them into the body of the article, that it should be pushed into Draft, and this be redirected to Osamu Tezuka as one of his coined terms. The term is not present in either the Manga article or the History of Manga article, but since it's all about Tezuka's perspective, that would be the most helpful. However, even the Tezuka article does not say "story manga" either, so that would need to be tweaked. AngusWOOF (barksniff) 17:13, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: The alt-right has caused a great deal of controversy and Paul Ramsey has played a role therein. Here are quotes from several sources:
"popular alt-right internet personality" (The New York Times -- link)
"prolific alt-right commentator and vlogger" (The Huffington Post -- link)
"a YouTube sensation" (Salon -- link)
"importante figure de l'alt-right" (French Version of VICE -- link)
There is no need for a biography in the mentioned source. Also I do think that reasons given in the last discussion -- where a clear majority proposed "keep" -- are valid. Sincerely, 93.224.97.95 (talk) 22:04, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Those comments are entirely unrelated to the rationale. Either provide sources, rewriting the article or don't waste time arguing this is important for some political fringe.
You still only cite the sources that mention him in passing. Carl Fredrik talk 14:06, 21 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If you absolutely think that an article with numerous mentions is indispensable to substantiate relevance, look here:
Judy L. Thomas: Flush from victory, alt-right hits a rough patch, The Kansas City Star, or here:
Horváth Gábor: Magyaroknál lobbizik az önjelölt amerikai nagykövet , Népszava
but your rationale is flawed. It actually does matter what a source is saying. And don't waste time with an erroneous inference trying to diminish relevance using the phrase "political fringe".

P.S. This proposed deletion reminds me of your flawed rationale and failed proposal to merge the articles "white supremacy" and "Identitarian movement".
I didn't know I had proposed that. Nice sleuthing. Anyhow, this still fails quite hard on WP:GNG per:

Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.

Just for your enlightenment: it was not "sleuthing", I just remembered that nonsensical proposal which I had responded to (I wrote "reminds me", actually not that hard to understand), went to the corresponding article, clicked 500 views and let the browser look for "CFCF", a matter of seconds. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.224.110.175 (talkcontribs) 20:14, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
  • Delete - a definite delete. Fails GNG and BIO. Only trivial coverage in all sources. The subject has not received significant attention in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. References and other sources consist of one line or two line mentions in articles of varying topics pertaining to the alt-right. Here is how the references do not support this subject for a stand alone article:
  1. TPM - one line mention
  2. Salon.com - one line mention
  3. Mother Jones - one sentence mention (maybe two lines)
  4. The Federalist - his name is mentioned once
  5. New York Times - one sentence coverage in the whole article.
  6. Media Matters - two lines and this source is probably not an independent reliable source - it is a blog supporting a personal point of view.
The last two references are the same. I am willing to critique them here if necessary. The sources posted at this AfD are of the same nature. Only passing mentions. There is not enough material in these sources to maintain an acceptable biography per Wikipedia standards. The lack of sourcing also indicates this subject fails WP:BLP. ----Steve Quinn (talk) 02:31, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Steve, I looked up the NYTimes citation you dismiss. While it is not a profile, and offers no in-depth coverage of Ramsay, it does say: "Paul Ray Ramsey, a Trump supporter and popular alt-right internet personality..." This is a RS describing Ramsay as popular, and, as such, offers some support for his notability. Together with the details on his life and work provided by the SPLC which enable us to source an article, descriptors like "popular" in RS publications validate notability.E.M.Gregory (talk) 10:07, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Further comment: the reason the Kansas City Star article [[6] fails as an acceptable source for this topic is because it is a bunch of quotes by the subject. This is trivial coverage. This is not coverage that significantly discusses this person. This is in contrast to Richard Spenser for most or all the sources posted here. He and his behavior are independently discussed ad infinitum. The Hungarian source [7] is also trivial coverage on its own because no other reliable sources cover this desire to be an ambassador - therefore verification fails. Also, this is coverage of only what Ramsey says, without any kind of critical eye lent to the writing. And a biography article on Wikipedia cannot depend on only one sketchy source (I also doubt it qualifies as WP:RS - no independent editing staff, fact checkers, and so on). ---Steve Quinn (talk) 03:08, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's always a matter of interpretation what is considered trivial. "Definite delete"? For a long period of time mentioned again and again in the media, more than 40 thousand subscribers and 13 million visits (for a far-right political channel!), and now this media turmoil concerning the alt-right, wherein he played his role, cf. e.g. American Renaissance-conference. Looking at the other discussion about whether to keep or delete one can see that the media coverage does not have to be interpreted as "trivial". It does of course depend on the picked comparison, e.g. comparing to David Duke would dwarf this coverage even more. 93.224.110.238 (talk) 08:21, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It is not really a matter of interpretation. The appropriate guideline was quoted above per GNG:

Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material.

Also:

"Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content.

Passing mentions are specifically noted in the guidelines, and the guidelines are summations of our core content policies. Furthermore, anyone quoted in a news article or in a TV interview is a primary source sharing information about themselves, their activities, or anything they are connected to. The same goes for YouTube videos, self-posted videos somewhere else, and so on, no matter how many subscribers and views (which can be achieved with bots, by the way). This material is non-independent and would contravene the neutral point of view policy, if it were deemed acceptable as verification for notability. It is clear on Wikipedia what is trivial and what is not, and what is independent coverage and what is not. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 03:20, 24 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I didn't misstate what you wrote. One line mentions are trivial coverage. Also, quotes are primary sources, they are not independent coverage. There is nothing that I see that passes WP:SIGCOV. More than trivial coverage is needed in each source according to all the guidelines referenced in this AfD. One complete article on one website is not enough. The purpose of significant coverage in multiple reliable sources is for verification. But it seems people forget this. And I have no more to say here. I am done with this AfD. Farewell, and good day to all. ---Steve Quinn (talk) 03:21, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Besides the SPLC source there are at least these three (just found the third one) sources were the subject is not only mentioned "in passing" ([9] The Kansas City Star, [10] Népszava, [11] The Raw Story). Of course one could always find some reason or angle to sort them out -- well, considering the Hungarian source the "verification fails"? Another one consists of quotations -- so what? It's not a mentioning in passing and adds relevance. Furthermore -- being mentioned again and again in passing -- one can easily find numerous instances -- does show his role after all.
Summa summarum -- as long as the subject's role in the alt-right is relevant enough, the aim should be to gather information for the Wikipedia-article and not kick out every source one by one for not being verifiable and explicitly biographical. 93.224.108.150 (talk) 08:01, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Does not meet WP:AUTHOR or WP:GNG. He has some coverage in the world of small press publication (blogs and private websites as well as print), and has himself been published extensively in small press and self-published format as well as some stories in anthologies from bigger publishers. But that is not sufficient: there's a lack of reviews or other critical commentary in reliable sources (which would include newspapers, magazines from major publishers, academic sources, independent websites with a proper editorial structure, etc), no evidence of major awards, and no indication of importance outside of a small, self-regarding world. Nemonymous should also be considered for deletion for its lack of coverage by independent third parties. --Colapeninsula (talk) 10:53, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep or merge. While the article has a good bit of business jargon that could be simplified, the article itself seems referenced with multiple RS, showing the term exists. The idea of an investor also being a customer is of course popular and notable -- kickstarter campaigns, crowdfunding, etc. If it is just the title the nom has a problem with, renaming or a merge would be a better alternative then deletion. --Mark viking (talk) 21:44, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This page should be deleted because there isn't enough content here to justify a separate page from 'Illegal immigration to the United States'. In fact, the presence of both this page and a section on the economic impact in 'Illegal immigration to the United States' may contribute to the underdevelopment of both, as editors either add content to one or the other page. The content that's worth saving from this page should be added to the appropriate section of 'Illegal immigration to the United States'. Deleting this page will strengthen the 'Illegal immigration to the United States' page, and ensure that Wikipedia will cover the topic in a more comprehensive fashion. Another important reason why this page should be deleted is that the content on this page is substandard. An editor recently tried to introduce large parts of this article to the 'Illegal immigration to the United States', but upon close inspection of the material in question, it was found to be wholly inappropriate for Wikipedia, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Illegal_immigration_to_the_United_States#Multiple_problems_with_recent_edits_.2831_August_2017.29. I suspect that there are similar problems with the remaining content in this article. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 00:37, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think the article should be kept. It's challenging to write because people that don't like the opposing side of the argument tend to delete material. It merits a separate entry from illegal immigration in the U.S.Farcaster (talk) 04:41, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge The article is clearly bias from the start. "Unauthorized immigrants demand goods and services (thus creating jobs) while contributing payroll and income taxes". Does the government get more money in taxes than it pays to support them? It then says "They also lower prices in the industries where they provide labor, such as agriculture, restaurants, and construction", which means they have no choice but to work for cheaper prices than anyone else would. They lower salaries available for those jobs. No mention of how many unemployed Americans would be willing to do those jobs if they hadn't stolen it from them. Merging this to the other article would mean more people to watch it, and perhaps keep people from constantly removing anything that supports the opposite of what they do.

Tube well is a regional synonym for Water wells, which content this article duplicates (but not as completely). Article since 2014 has had only one reference (and so tagged). PROD was removed without improvement. A REDIRECT would recognize the regional use of the term Tube well, while the technology is the same worldwide. Notability is not measured by wikilinks, but by reliable secondary sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rhadow (talkcontribs) 17:32, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge and redirect. I don't understand why deletion processes are being used, rather than {{mergeto}} and a merge discussion on the talk page. The nominator's comment about wikilinks apparently refers to my rationale for de-PRODding the page; https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1426365 has 10 other wikipedia articles on tube wells, but now that I have looked at them, only the Punjabi one has additional citations (4 of them), and the Punjabi article linked to Water well is only one paragraph, which indicates that there may not be enough to justify two separate articles (in any language). – Fayenatic London 20:05, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Paul 012: could you translate the relevant sections, please? Happy to accept they have coverage but I have no understanding of Thai. Fenix down (talk) 15:22, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The entirety of those articles are discussing the subject. I don't really have the will to translate them all, but the first item, dated 5 February 2017, covers the announcement of the club's new name, with reporting on the ceremony, the club's ownership, management and sponsorship, history and previous performance, and its upcoming participation in the Thai League 4. The second item, from 6 January, provides similar background coverage. The third item, from 3 August, is about the club's 2017 performance, being the only team from the fourth tier to make it into the national FA Cup. --Paul_012 (talk) 15:44, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to The_Evergreen_State_College#2017_protests. There appears to be consensus that there is insufficient notability for a standalone article about Weinstein. However, since he was involved in an event that received national media attention, "Bret Weinstein" is a likely search term and the reader should be directed to the content they are seeking. Since Weinstein is mentioned by name at The Evergreen State College, that is the appropriate target for the redirect. If anyone feels there is content still to be merged into the target article, the content will remain available in the page history. -- Ed (Edgar181) 14:05, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article was started and largely edited by the creator of the neologism "Daggafari". Redirection to Cannabis in South Africa, the suitable main article for this topic, was declined. As it stands, it's a clear WP:CFORK. No reliable sources have been given which discuss the neologism in detail. Slashme (talk) 06:54, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of South Africa-related deletion discussions. CAPTAIN RAJU(T) 09:43, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: This article focuses on the evolution of the contemporary cannabis (daggafari) culture of South Africa in relation to the history of cannabis laws and racism in South Africa. (See WP:SUBPOV--11:31, 9 September 2017 (UTC)) Renaming the article to Cannabis culture would not suffice because this is not a general article about global cannabis culture but the unique history of specific to the South African cannabis culture. Although some aspects of the Daggafari article can be found in Cannabis in South Africa it is not in violation of the content fork guidelines. Just how the hippie or beatnik culture is not in violation of the content fork guidelines. (see WP:RELAR & WP:RELART--11:35, 9 September 2017 (UTC)) Further more, the notability of the terms has since been lodged on the talk page. Although the term is relatively new, it is a label that has been accepted & used by the dagga culture of South Africa in general as well as prominent figures in the South African cannabis culture such as the Dagga Couple and the Dagga Party of South Africa. The stigma surrounding dagga is still very much alive in South Africa and mainstream media prefer to use sensational word to describe the culture by using words like pothead etc thus it has not been covered by mainstream media. This shouldn't however be the only merit to determine notability. Furthermore the Afrikaans Language Commission is currently discussing to include the Afrikaans words for Daggafarian in the list of Afrikaans words. I do not believe the article should be deleted even if the consensus should be reached that the term is not notable as the article does not focus solely on the term but the subject or culture that the term refers to. I believe the nominator was wrong to delete the contents of this article and create a redirect to a poorly structured piece that itself needs a lot of work to present less of a list and more of an article. I don't think "reliable" sources can be found in a country that still revels in the stigma and pseudo-science of the subject, eg. where the reliable sources in the country publishes mostly unreliable pseudo-scientific and stigma pieces on the subject. This term is mostly used by the South African cannabis culture and is preferred over being called a pothead. Please consider the entire article and do not base your decisions solely on the word. Again the article can be adapted and should not be deleted as it contains critical info not contain in other articles and deals with a focused subject that does not appear in other articles. COI has been noted on the af:Daggafarianisme article and it is what transformed it into its current shaped as I started learning more about Wikipedia guidelines. I am a fairly new user but am able to think for myself and apply myself neutrally to the subject. Other than the contesting of the title and main introduction this nomination carries no substance and should not result into a delete. Thus it appears the nominators reasoning is not based on Wikipedia guidelines but need for the removal of the implication of racist cannabis-Apartheid history of the subject. If you are able to follow the nomination for deletion of the Afrikaans version this will be echoed in the sentiments where notability was not contested by the majority. (Mostly only the historic content relating to cannabis laws and racism was contested, also see the relating talk page EDITED --10:46, 9 September 2017 (UTC) Where the nomination was raised by a suspected sockpuppet!--Mickey ☠ Dangerez 10:05, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If your concern is that the Cannabis in South Africa is poorly structured and doesn't cover the topic, that's a good reason to work on that article and include this topic there instead of just creating a fork. It's short enough that there's room to discuss this topic in a few paragraphs.
The comments about the Afrikaans wikipedia are not very relevant here. Who nominated that article for deletion, or how many of the !votes over there mention notability are not issues that affect this discussion. --Slashme (talk) 18:28, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I'm not quite sure if the content fork applies, but at the very least, this is WP:TOOSOON. A Google search (and yes, I realize that's not everything) for "daggafarian" returns less than 600 hits. This article very much feels like a WP:SOAPBOX in order to promote/market a movement. There doesn't seem to be any actual reliable coverage of the term. But even with that, it's hard to see that it's worthy of a separate article rather than a simple mention at Cannabis in South Africa as a local term for a user. Moreover, the article as written is blatantly POV, which is itself fixable, but I think it does show the promotional aspect of it. --Deacon Vorbis (talk) 13:34, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Cannabis in South Africa per nom. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 18:16, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Kommentar: As per my notice on my talk page, will never again engage in discussion or debates with fellow wikipedians and will no longer contribute to wikipedia. However I have an obligation to defend my actions because they have been in good faith and there is some notability to the subject. However as pointed out in my notice there is no clear threshold for notability. I find it impossible to believe that after years of service, real world examples of thresholds for notability have not been established and used as evidence for and against notability. There is a consensus that Facebook sources are NEVER permissible but those that believe this must please study the Facebook guidelines. There are exceptions.
    If you're unwilling to engage in discussion, I'd say that disqualifies any comments you make, as discussion is really how Wikipedia works. I'll note though, that the first link you posted is to a closed Facebook group, and is thus not useful as a source. The second link is a 404, which is also useless. And the third link is to something that you, yourself, seem to have written; that's also not a reliable source.
    It's quite true that there's a wide grey area in terms of notability, but as things stand, this isn't anywhere near that zone. You haven't offered anything that this is anything but a neologism (as pointed out above) which you're trying to promote by an article on Wikipedia. If (and I stress the if part) you can find the term discussed in reliable, secondary sources, I don't see any reason why this can't be a brief mention at Cannabis in South Africa, again as pointed out above. --Deacon Vorbis (talk) 00:28, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Kommentar:
    All but the last link are still 404s. And the last link is a pretty obvious hoax post. And even still, none of that is relevant for demonstrating notability. The simple fact that a few people use a word does not mean the topic is notable. Moreover, this is getting into WP:OR territory in trying to trace usage through primary sources. Once again, what you really need are reliable, secondary sources that discuss the term itself. And even then, there's still the issue of why this term should have its own article rather than a mention at Cannabis in South Africa. --Deacon Vorbis (talk) 01:14, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, as per Deacon Vorbis and also my comment here. The contents of this "article" have nothing to do with the articles name, it is not notable enough to be a stand-alone article and barely enough usable content to merge with Cannabis in South Africa. Robvanvee 05:52, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Kommentar: None of the historical content & external references is to be deleted without first being merged to the suggested page in the event that the motion to delete is successful. Also there is enough references and content about Daggafari to make a merge possible, laziness isn't an excuse. In response to 404s it is related to your geography maybe eg. censored china. I have tested the links while being signed out of Facebook and they are working. Which satisfies Facebook reference guidelines referring to content not available due to login, no login is required. Rob I believe your intentions here are not unbiased as you are heavily associated with the Dagga Couple & FOFGA and your comment comes just after my publication made its intention clear to investigate your organization. Even though I have already asked you days prior on the talk page you mention, to file your motion, it cannot be coincidental for the delay. Therefor you have a conflict of interest, not in the subject but, by your influence & association. --Mickey ☠ Dangerez 14:12, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm definitely not in China (I'm in the US), and those links are definitely no good (FB reports, "The link you followed may be broken, or the page may have been removed." whether or not I'm logged in). None of that really matters, because as has already been noted many times, someone merely using the term doesn't establish notability. Also, demands like "None of the historical content & external references is to be deleted without first being merged to the suggested page in the event that the motion to delete is successful." carry no weight. I would suggest saving whatever information you want in case the article does get deleted. --Deacon Vorbis (talk) 15:00, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    I'd recommend that the closing admin rather choose the milder remedy of redirection, in which case the full article history would be available. There's always WP:REFUND if the page gets deleted, though. --Slashme (talk) 21:49, 12 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Off-topic rant
I get that you're feeling frustrated, but one of the reasons that we prefer to merge articles instead of keeping multiple articles on the same topic is because our articles get better balance and completeness when more people are working on the same article and looking at the topic from different points of view. The Cannabis in ZA article will be improved if you can add the perspective of the current dagga politics, but we are seeing a clear consensus that "daggafari" as a term is not notable enough to warrant its own separate article. This isn't dictatorship. It's democratic consensus-building. --Slashme (talk) 13:00, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Whatever helps you sleep at night bro. No matter the outcome of this nominations, it will one day feature on Wikipedia even if consensus of notability is not reached now.--Mickey ☠ Dangerez 15:18, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete: in protest against the dictatorship of cherry picking segments of Wikipedia guidelines to fit POV. I cannot be part of any organization that allow it. I would like some clear examples to demonstrate notability, it doesn't exist for the very reason to bend policies to favor certain views. I believe I have proven notability and the sources are reliable in terms of the guidelines to the type of sources and in the context they have been used. COI doesn't influence notability nor does it influence sources where a clear violation cannot be shown.--Mickey ☠ Dangerez 15:18, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have changed this. No use in protesting in frustration. --Mickey ☠ Dangerez 12:42, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that, I was understanding that a merge would involve copy / paste, but because of "COI" on the subject of cannabis am not sure which content must change or be removed and thus did not account for those changes.

  • Merge salvageable content with and redirect to Decrepit car An abandoned car is often a decrepit car and there should be a few mentions of that in the latter article, though without the confusing statements like the Texas line, which could easily call a car in a park-and-ride abandoned when it often isn't so by any means. Nate (chatter) 04:46, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To be honest Decrepit car is a ridiculous concept for an article as well. It too is a random pile of miscellany. EEng 04:56, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To the esteemed contenders in the round: I surely hope that no-one will deny the existence of either unused cars or their abandonment. I definitely mean to add statistics to make the point more evident. Besides, could you have pulled the criteria for abandonment out of your sleeve? I couldn't. Would you have guessed that the criteria differ so much? Not me. Even knowing the variety of dos and don'ts that exists is valuable. Afterthought: there is nothing from my point of view that contradicts pulling the information about unused and unrecycled! cars together into one article. Mere denial of the fact is not an option. Just as with all other waste. -- Kku (talk) 06:47, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:ITEXISTS. Any sources treating this in an encyclopedic manner? EEng 14:50, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, after checking it seems Halsbury's has several sections on it. it even in one part says more or less the above: "Where it appears to a local authority[1] that a motor vehicle[2] in its area is abandoned without lawful authority on any land in the open air or on any other land forming part of a highway, it is the duty of the authority to remove the vehicle[3]." A Guy into Books (talk) 19:22, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"There's a law on it" is not encyclopedic coverage. EEng 21:23, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Halsbury's is an encyclopedia (encyclopedia of law). But thats not my point, my point is that this topic goes beyond WP:NOTHOWTO and WP:DICTDEF, as there is enough information to merit a thorough examination of the topic in reliable secondary source(s). therefore by extension this article ought to be kept and improved. A Guy into Books (talk) 21:31, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It just occured to me that you might have thought of Halsbury's Statutes rather than Halsbury's Laws of England which is the work I was (rather ambiguously) referring to. A Guy into Books (talk) 21:36, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It still appears to be just a digest of legal provisions. How in the world is Where it appears to a local authority[1] that a motor vehicle[2] in its area is abandoned without lawful authority on any land in the open air or on any other land forming part of a highway, it is the duty of the authority to remove the vehicle anything like something that should be in an article? At the very least, this should be merged with Decrepit car as suggested above. Beyond that, I give up. This is just too silly to argue about. EEng 22:08, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Can people please stop saying to merge this with Decrepit car, if a millionaire parked a £100,000 ferrari in my local street and left it there for 4 weeks after the tax ran out then it would be an abandoned car, but hardly a decrepit car. the two topics are completely separate.

Not far off, this kind of remedy is normally only used where a car wouldn't be towed due to parking violations, as that would happen before the council tow it away due to abandonment.

  • Keep How is anyone seriously suggesting that the situation described here isn't both widespread, and described at length in a variety of local bylaws? Some historical and international survey of this seems encyclopedically relevant to me. Andy Dingley (talk) 00:32, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And what will be the sources for the historical and international survey, other than the OR and SYNTH already offered?
Newspapers would work for the UK. The Bristol local paper, esp. late '90s, took rather an interest with vehicles abandoned in one park location. The national press has been supportive in recent years for the government's "we're crushing anything found untaxed" campaigns. Why do you claim there are no sources? Do you have anything to prove such a negative? Andy Dingley (talk) 01:40, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe something changed while I wasn't looking, but usually at AfD it's the positive that needs proving. Whatcha got beyond the Bristol local paper's interest with vehicles abandoned in one park location? EEng 01:58, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Belfast, Bristol and Oxford (Blackbird Leys) would be good places to start from for a 1990s context, when TWOCing became a particular problem in the UK, leading to large numbers of abandoned vehicles (to the point when councils had to act) and car security needed to be improved. Years following that, and the technical ability to give pedestrian traffic wardens wireless computer access, led to the clamp-down [sic] on untaxed vehicles. Both of these are solid events to hang article narrative on. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:42, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Every major municipality has had to deal with this issue allocating major recourses to it and every one has in-depth coverage to this issue. OR? Just do a current news search of "Abandoned vehicles" and you'll see.[31]. Further evidence of passing WP:GNG are the Minnesota Legislature created a very extensive in-depth report on the topic of abandoned vehicles.[32] The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration published very in-depth analysis of abandoned vehicles in this book. There are many more in-depth reports on abandoned vehicles and the impact they have I could list here.

  • Redirect per TheGracefulSlick. Danger2, what "various independent sources" are you referring to? There is only one reference within the article to a music rating site. If you are referring to the external links, Discogs is not considered a reliable source and Encyclopaedia Metallum appears to be more of a directory listing than anything.

Whilst the main article has been tagged as too long, this article is much too narrow in its scope to be a useful sub-article. It would, in this form, never meet WP:GNG. AfD after a contested PROD. This AfD isn't to say that the main article should not be broken into smaller sub-sets, just not something as narrow as one particular class of an order of chivalry. Schwede66 23:27, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps if it included the whole order. eg. the entire Order of the British Empire subset? it would be quite long still, but more notable. A Guy into Books (talk) 14:27, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I see that this article has been moved to 1946 New Years Honours (Order of the British Empire). Is the intention to list all MBEs and OBEs by year? I think that goes beyond the purpose of an encyclopedia. My father was an MBE (I can't be bothered to check now but I think he was given that honour in 1974 or 1975) but, as a modest man, he would be turning in his grave if he knew that that would lead to him being listed in an encyclopedia. CBEs and above tend to be notable, but the lower levels not. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:27, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The intent is to retain the existing complete listing, regardless of the individual notability of the awards, but simply to split the overly long lists into shorter sub-lists. I believe it would be unencyclopedic to omit the lower 2 of the 5 ranks on grounds on notability. particularly as the sources do not omit the lower ranks and WP:verifiability is easy to establish. Since your father as a modest man is unlikely to be notable, he will not have his own page, he will simply be included on the list. Category:Members of the Order of the British Empire shows enough (some 2400) MBE recipients (the lowest rank) with their own articles to justify its inclusion in the overall listings. A Guy into Books (talk) 21:21, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. This article simply reproduces what is in the London Gazette without adding any context. This falls foul of WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:BADIDEA. I would support the inclusion of a list of CBEs and above somewhere, because they are likely to be notable, and also of the small minority of OBEs and MBEs who have or should have Wikipedia articles, but not this indiscrimate list. And, by the way, they are the New Year Honours, or possibly in some contexts the New Year's Honours, but certainly not the New Years Honours. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 17:54, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
the year/years issue was already spotted and corrected on pages other than this one (which is in AfD). Your argument is counter to the whole point of why the MBE's and OBE's are being included, which is to add context to the otherwise overly short CBE article (which it was before this AfD). Contrary to your assertion, this list does infact pass WP:INDISCRIMINATE criteria (note the example given in the guidelines uses equal context and dissection of information. WP:BADIDEA is not even vaguely relevant to this article. This article meets all relevant WP:CSG guidelines and every entry on the list is individually WP:N and WP:V compliant. Not to mention that MBE's and OBE's are themselves notable topics. I don't doubt your father may be annoyed about being (briefly mentioned) in an encyclopedia, but that does not make the list unencyclopedic.A Guy into Books (talk) 19:09, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I don't doubt that every entry on this list is WP:V compliant, being sourceable to the London Gazette, but the vast majority are certainly not WP:N compliant. WP:INDISCRIMINATE says "merely being true, or even verifiable, does not automatically make something suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia". That applies here. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:15, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No. It's part of a series of articles with over a 100 individual pages, and you will have to establish consensus for such a fundamental change on a relevant talk page first. Just as you could (should?) have done before dealing with this particular article. Schwede66 20:16, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well since this series of articles are basically all identical, if this one gets deleted (per WP:NOTDIR et al) I will of course Afd tag the whole lot so as to be consistent. the article this was split from was wikipedias largest article for a while, so splitting them has already been decided (certainly no-one has objected), however it would appear a lot of the content once split is not going to be kept. (not notable if only the upper ranks, WP:NOTDIR if the full list). I welcome any ideas to deal with this. A Guy into Books (talk) 20:37, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This AfD isn't the right venue for that discussion. Schwede66 21:55, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Could you list this in the proper venue? I dont really know where that would be, but I also don't want to deal with this page on its own when it is part a set, it seems to be inefficient to have to go through each one individually. A Guy into Books (talk) 22:08, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for my delayed response. A more appropriate venue would have been Talk:1946 New Year Honours, i.e. add to the existing discussion there. If you don't get an answer there, go to Talk:New Year Honours. If that doesn't generate some discussion, I'd go to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Orders, decorations, and medals; that project appears to be reasonably active. Beyond that, a requests for comment would be the next best venue. As you can see, making a big and unilateral change that can affect a lot of pages does not really work. Schwede66 07:24, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I have made so many changes to it that it is now completely different from the original anyway. I will see what the opinion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Orders, decorations, and medals is, because these lists are incredibly long (this one was 1,028,847 bytes, now a more manageable size) and need some improvement to be usable lists. A Guy into Books (talk) 08:04, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Aguyintobooks, maybe it would be better if you would familiarise yourself a bit more with Wikipedia, to the extent that you could find the proper venue for yourself, before proposing such wholesale changes to the way things are done here? I must say that I find your modus operandi very strange for someone who claims to be a lawyer. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 21:29, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
How is anything happening here changing how 'things are done around here', there must have been a previous instance of a set of similar articles being considered at the same time? (in lawyer speak this is a class action, a very common way of dealing with a bulk of similar cases at once). As far as the venue for discussion is concerned, well this is the place to discuss deletions, there isn't anywhere else. but perhaps a RfC would be more appropriate, as I can't see a consensus being reached here. A Guy into Books (talk) 21:38, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. With rewrite to remove all non-notable MBE and OBE recipients. (Sources to be included for all notable ones).

A Guy into Books (talk) 22:44, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Note That there are now three levels to this. 1946 New Year Honours is the parent page. 1946 New Year Honours (Order of the British Empire) has been weeded to include only the higher classes. and 1946 New Year Honours (awards of OBE and MBE) has been split off to contain the bulk, this needs going though to make smaller.

  • Hmm, yeah...I'd prefer for this victim to be notable in her own right but the sources don't seem to support it, and that Project seems to exist only on Facebook. Drmies (talk) 16:50, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect per nom. This was created at a different time in Wikipedia's history, when our notability and sourcing standards were nowhere near as strict as they are now. As things stand now, however, we don't normally keep articles about people notable primarily as the victims of other people's actions anymore — but having been murdered by her husband is the only notability claim she's really got.

I nominated this for deletion a while back and still think it was kept on rather flimsy grounds. The evidence for this "field" being an actual thing distinct from neuropsychology or physiological psychology has become even weaker in the interim. It's also an orphan. It really should disappear.

  • When I first saw this term here, my immediate gut reaction was to call to keep the article. However, having just read the article and seen how badly written it is, I think I can understand pleas to delete it. It even says at the end "neuro" and "physiology" both mean brain. I think this is nonsense - neuro means to do with the whole nervous system and all the nerves within it (not just the brain) and I think that one would be hard-pressed to find a respected figure in medicine or science who thought that "physiology" meant brain.

  • delete per WP:TNT GBook and GScholar searches show there might be an article to be written here, but what we have is almost a BLP violation, basically alleging that the thing is nonsense and giving a name for the supposed inventor, without citation.

  • Keep and reviseit may clarify things to examine earlier versions from the history: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Neuropsychophysiology&oldid=297170655, changed to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Neuropsychophysiology&oldid=350761136 and then changed to the current version. It would appear that an originally positive article on what the first afd thought was sufficiently notable has been changed by the nominator into a negative article--with the negative material completely unsourced, and apparently justified in the edit summaries as"(I lecture in psychophysiology and neuroscience, so I reckon I'm a good enough "expert"", who then nominated for deletion. I consider this a very unjustifiable way of dealing with it--whether or not it is nonsense. It is altogether unfair to first destroy an article and then list it for deletion. (I am making no judgment on whether or not the concept is nonsense). The proper way is to write a NPOV article with the negative material sourced instead of merely asserted, and then possibly considering it for deletion. DGG ( talk ) 00:34, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Whoah, hang on a minute. I feel like I'm being accused of something. This article has never been any good, no matter how far you go back in it's history. I came across it when it was tagged for attention by an expert and I couldn't find any evidence that it was anything other than fringy fringeness promoted by somebody who has since shut down their website. The "positive" form of this article was positive because it was full of promotion, inappropriate synth and unsourcery. The more "negative" statements in the current version of the article are also unsourced because this isn't a thing. I still do not understand why this was kept after the first AfD, and since nobody has bothered to improve it since then it should probably just be put out of it's misery. There is nothing notable or verifiable about this supposed "field." Famousdog (c) 10:28, 14 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Löschen - I was actually in the process of placing a PROD on this heap of flaming WP:OR at the same time as the nominator did so. Article has no useful content and is pure sectarian screed, with a sprinkling of anti-Semitism on top (see the "Jewish author" section). It also appears to have been previously deleted through the AfD process, and should be deleted as such.PohranicniStraze (talk) 02:04, 9 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

      • I'm not sure. An article by the same name seems to have been created by the same user, so if it was substantially identical it would be eligible for speedy deletion under G4 (recreation of a page that was deleted per a deletion discussion). But I'm not an admin, so I can't see the old version to know if it was identical or not.

There are two problems with this article. First, it is almost entirely an advertisement for the service, and reads like a brochure, and is not a neutral description of the service. Second, neither this article nor a Google search provides in-depth coverage of the service. Whether the company itself is notable is another question. However, there is certainly no need for multiple articles. The first problem can be dealt with by a rewrite that would leave nearly nothing, and the service still would not be notable.
