*:Nelson Mandela lived a very notable life, but retreated into retirement in his last few years and then died in a very ordinary manner (respiratory disease, #2 most common cause of death).

:::Sorry for not explaining clearer: when I say that the "death itself was not notable", I do not mean that the deaths of major figures who do not die in an unexpected way can never get blurbed. Instead, I would have been more inclined to support this blurb if the death itself was notable, i.e, there was significant coverage ''of their death'' on Wikipedia. In the case of Nelson Mandela, I would have almost certainly supported that, as there is a [[Death and state funeral of Nelson Mandela|whole page devoted to his death and reactions to it]].

*'''Support blurb''' not just your average politician - transformative figure in Canadian and worldwide politics. His death's widespread coverage stems not from the fact that he died, but because he is a distinctly notable figure.

When a particularly politically influential former leader of a country dies and attracts significant worldwide news coverage, this merits a blurb regardless of individual editors' peculiar view that an ordinary "manner of death" altogether precludes someone's life from being notable. To the contrary, the ultimate bottom line is how well-known the figure was + press coverage: if those indicia strongly point towards notability, then an ordinary manner of death does not necessarily preclude a blurb.

:*'''Support blurb'''&mdash;I haven't actually checked the quality of the article, so I'll just comment on its blurbworthiness.

*'''Reminder''' You may support a death blurb for a person who has died in old age far removed from the events that give them notability. You may also choose to oppose the blurb specifically because the death occurred naturally in old age. There are committed partisans on both sides that like to suggest the opposing view is illegitimate, but both opinions are valid and should/will be weighed in consensus.

:'''Weak support on notability''', not convinced by the above arguments that it isn't notable because the Palestinian Authority has "limited governance" or is a "barely functioning state", we're not here to judge how powerful states must be to be relevant. We recently blurbed Tuvalu, which has a lot less population than the parts of the West Bank controlled by the PA, so that shouldn't really be an argument. Still, the PM doesn't administer the executive, so notability isn't 100% guaranteed either.

*'''Oppose''' on notability, for two reasons:
*#Merely that an otherwise non-notable man publicly killed himself for political reasons and has joined the [[list of political self-immolations]] is not sufficiently significant for posting at ITN. This is not the first political self-immolation of a current or former U.S. military member in recent memory (one [https://www.disabledveterans.org/report-veteran-charles-ingram-suicide-by-fire-northfield-va/ occurred in 2016] in protest of the VA), nor is it the first self-immolation in protest of military policy to have occurred in recent memory (one [https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-30015841 occurred in 2014] after Japan began to adopt a more aggressive military posture), nor is the first to have occurred in recent memory in a protest relating to human rights (this sort of thing has [https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/28/books/review/eat-the-buddha-barbara-demick.html been frequent in Tibet]; see [[Self-immolation protests by Tibetans in China]] for more information on the >100 such cases since 2009). {{pb}}Self-immolations catch headlines, but in the grand scheme they don't tend to be that significant. This self-immolation is getting attention because it relates to the war in Gaza, but if this reason alone is why this is getting a nom then is already covered under ongoing. Additionally, we have kept much more significant things (such as the [[Wikipedia:In_the_news/Candidates/August_2023#(Closed)_Alexei_Navalny_sentenced|sentencing of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny]] to the penal camp where he would later die) off of ITN, and I don't see why this act of suicide would be so significant as to merit inclusion here.

But I’m kind of disappointed that ultimately this won’t be supported on ITN for reasons that, frankly Masem, in some instances above come across as cavalier and cynical.

:::To the first, this would be more remarkable if there had not already been a female prime minister of Pakistan. To the second, what she may do in the future is irrelevant, per [[WP:CRYSTAL]]. [[User:GenevieveDEon|GenevieveDEon]] ([[User talk:GenevieveDEon|talk]]) 13:34, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' As GenevieveDEon pointed out, there has already been a female Prime Minister of Pakistan ([[Benazir Bhutto]], who served twice). With this in mind, I do not believe this election is notable enough in and of itself. I would only reconsider if it brings about a ''very significant'' shift in policy. That being said, the article for Maryam Nawaz does not indicate the election brought about a large change in policy, so I will oppose unless this is changed. [[User:Gödel2200|Gödel2200]] ([[User talk:Gödel2200|talk]]) 14:27, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' on notability. The article is good, but this is relates to a nation's internal politics, as important as the Punjab province is. I may reconsider if this ends up being of international or large internal significance. [[User:Moncoposig|Moncoposig]] ([[User talk:Moncoposig|talk]]) 17:19, 26 February 2024 (UTC)

:'''Oppose''' on significance. There was already a female PM of Pakistan, a CM is a lower level than a PM in Pakistan. [[User:JM2023|JM]] ([[User talk:JM2023|talk]]) 17:43, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' as it’s not quite as significant when the country as a whole already had a female PM. [[User:The Kip|<span style="color:#333f42;">'''The'''</span>]] [[User talk:The Kip|<span style="color:#b4975a;">'''Kip'''</span>]] 19:18, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' per Godel2200. We've seen three Muslim women heads of government across the globe (Haseena, Zia in BD and Bhutto in PK), this is really not internationally significant. --[[User:Rsrikanth05|Rsrikanth05]] ([[User talk:Rsrikanth05|talk]]) 01:52, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
*'''Oppose'''. [[Benazir Bhutto]] was PM in Pakistan for about five years in the 1990s, and was the first woman elected to lead Pakistan. Nawaz's achievement is significant for her political career, and for women in Punjab, but I don't see this as novel inasmuch as the PM is a much more senior position. — [[User:Red-tailed hawk|<span style="color: #660000">Red-tailed&nbsp;hawk</span>]]&nbsp;<sub>[[User talk:Red-tailed hawk|<span style="color: #660000">(nest)</span>]]</sub> 03:13, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

*'''Weak oppose''' While the first major country in Europe to legalize recreational use, it’s not the first overall - Luxembourg and Malta beat them to it. As such I’m not quite sure if it meets ITN standards as a result. [[User:The Kip|<span style="color:#333f42;">'''The'''</span>]] [[User talk:The Kip|<span style="color:#b4975a;">'''Kip'''</span>]] 19:40, 26 February 2024 (UTC)

*'''Weak support on notability''' Germany is the third EU country and the second G7 country to legalize recreational use. Given that there have only been [[Legality of cannabis#Legalization timeline|nine countries]] to legalize recreational use (according to our table), I think this is notable enough. That being said, we should either reword the blurb, or wait until 1 April 2024, as the legality doesn't take effect until 1 April 2024. [[User:Gödel2200|Gödel2200]] ([[User talk:Gödel2200|talk]]) 19:55, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
*'''Support on notability''', definitely an unusual and notable event.

*'''Support on notability, oppose on quality'''. I believe this is a big development, and this is much different situation to Luxembourg and Malta given the size and scale of those countries. We posted Canada's legalisation, and it's important to note this isn't decriminalisation like in Czechia or Portugal.

*'''Support on notability''' A large landslide with a high casualty rate is notable as evidenced by global coverage. Not all natural disasters are necessarily going to have long-term notability, but given we have multiple reliable global sources covering it this meets notability criteria. I would also like to point out there's nothing wrong in nominating at ITN in order to draw attention to an article needing expansion, especially when it's breaking news. Unfortunately, given its Afghanistan, a notoriously difficult part of the world to find consistent and reliable news for, this may be all we ever get so far; however this shouldn't lessen its notability.

*:"there's nothing wrong in nominating at ITN in order to draw attention to an article needing expansion"
*:I completely disagree, and I greatly dislike when it occurs. (Note that I'm not commenting on this specific nomination.) The point of nominating an article at ITN is to get an article listed on ITN. [[User:Kicking222|Kicking222]] ([[User talk:Kicking222|talk]]) 18:20, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

*:Please review NEVENTS. Specifically just because an event gets a burst of coverage in the short term doesn't make it sufficiently notable for WP. That's what Wikinews is for. We want enduring events, and a landslide with a relatively low death toll in a third world country/region just isn't going to get wide coverage.<span id="Masem:1708541403980:WikipediaFTTCLNIn_the_news/Candidates" class="FTTCmt"> —&nbsp;[[User:Masem|M<span style="font-variant: small-caps">asem</span>]] ([[User Talk:Masem|t]]) 18:50, 21 February 2024 (UTC)</span>

The articles from international sources covering this are extremely short and almost are news-in-brief, compared to other disasters that I've seen from third-world countries that get far more coverage. We sometimes simply cannot support notability of a event if coverage is just lacking, and while we should strive to include such events when the coverage is there, we shouldn't stretch our practices to include them.

**:I thought the argument for needing sources was because some editors thought that it was unimportant how many noms/wins something or another had, so the sources were there to show it was considered important - and that, with the Emmys, this was brought up because how many noms/wins various networks had was considered particularly unimportant/irrelevant by those editors (or maybe it's because the networks weren't always listed, so it was SYNTH, but the networks was brought up).

*:: I'm not doubting that this isn't a military victory, I'm just saying it isn't a particularly significant one. Donetsk still is and will be the main hub die to its significance and size. Avdiivka was lost because Ukraine isn't willing to suffer as many casualties as the Russians are, and ultimately is a small town with very little left in it of any significant military or economic value. Bear in mind Ukraine will say this was a big loss in a push to receive more support in military aid from the West and Russia will claim it's a huge victory because that will drive their propaganda and it's about the only military win they can cling onto since Bakhmut (which also wasn't that significant as it turned out).

*'''Comment''' Two quick points. The President of the United States and numerous high-ranking persons are explicitly blaming Putin for his death.

Yesterday, people said the government's announcement wasn't enough to confirm his death, that independent confirmation was needed, and today it's "confirmed" because the government told Navalny's mother? How does this make sense, when in both cases the government is the source? They still haven't seen his body.

*:It's not the government told Navalny's mother (why'd you think that?). It's that the spokeswoman also believes that he's dead.

This is the same entity which issued a press release on Friday to announce his death. Navalny's team didn't see his body, they were told it was taken to Salekhard and they won't be able to see him until the post-mortem examination is complete. So yes, Navalny's team is simply relying on the notice from the government-run prison. Exact same source as yesterday.

This is still a significant development in terms of LGBT rights. And even if being a first in *something* had to be a factor (which i.m.o. it doesn't, but it could of course be argued), being the first Balkan or Eastern Orthodox country to do so should be more than enough to fit the criteria. - [[User:Bucket of sulfuric acid|Bucket of sulfuric acid]] (he/him &#124; [[User talk:Bucket of sulfuric acid|talk]]) 08:56, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

*'''Weak support''' As per above, there have been numerous countries that have legalized same-sex marriage, and the number is still growing. Decisions like this we have posted, such as [[Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates/May 2019#(Posted) Same-sex marriage in Taiwan| in Taiwan]], have usually been due to the country being the first to do so in a geographical region. While that doesn't apply here, this is also the first Eastern Orthodox country to do so. I believe that, because marriage in the Eastern Orthodox tradition is said to be specifically [[Marriage in the Eastern Orthodox Church |between a man and a woman]], and some Eastern Orthodox leaders [[Eastern Orthodox Church#Marriage |explicitly denounce same-sex marriage]], this is notable enough for ITN.

*'''Oppose''' largely per Masem. Greece is nominally Orthodox with most people self-identifying as such, but regular church attendance is fairly low and according to Pew Research statistics only around half of all Greeks consider religion an important part of their lives. In short, it is starting to look more like Italy, a country that is nominally Catholic but in practice quite secular. And as noted above, Greece is a member of the EU. So this was coming as inevitably as the sun rising in the east. I think the big story here is that Greece is losing its religiosity. Churches are still crowded during Holy Week, but for much of the rest of the year, it's mostly the older generation, and mainly women. For many Greeks church attendance comes down to baptisms, weddings, funerals, Great Friday and Easter (Pascha). Some will add to that Christmas and their name day. While detailed numbers on church attendance are hard to come by, anecdotal evidence suggests that most of those <30 do so only when obliged for social reasons. -[[User:Ad Orientem|Ad Orientem]] ([[User talk:Ad Orientem|talk]]) 18:54, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
* '''Oppose''' When the ITN  brought up the legalization of [[same-sex marriage in Cuba]] (which IMO was far more significant as it was the first authoritarian country and Caribbean country do so, and it was paired with more extensive pro-LGBT legislation such as including more rigorous gender rights protections), it was struck down on the grounds that merely being the first in a region wasn't sufficient grounds for same-sex marriage legalization news to be posted, and that only if it was an extraordinary circumstance (like if a super-conservative country like Russia or KSA legalized it) will it be allowed. Also the claim that Greece is the first Balkan country to do so is wrong, as Slovenia has allowed it since 2022. This means that it's only "historic" because it's the first the Eastern Orthodox country to do so, which is an extremely weak justification for posting given that relatively few countries follow it.

* '''Comment '''- if Wikipedia does post this then it needs to set some standard as to when such a move gets posted. I also have an issue with the idea that "marriage" related topics get posted because marriage is a cultural concept and not something that's truly a human right. You can have all the rights without even having a marriage in many western countries for example. [[User:DragonSign|DragonSign]] ([[User talk:DragonSign|talk]]) 09:29, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
* '''Oppose '''- I think that some LGBTQ items should be posted (especially revoking laws that forbid homosexual sex), but gay marriage is just one of numerous gay rights that include things such as gay adoption, and anti-discrimination laws are arguably much more important for example. If Wikipedia were to post all the progresses then I would support, but gay marriage is not globally notable in my opinion.<p>Furthermore numerous countries around the world will soon legalise gay marriage or provide something similar, and I doubt that Wikipedia will post all of them, and I doubt that Wikipedia has posted all the gay marriages that have already happened.</p><p>To back up the point I am trying to make, it's not essential for people to get married whether heterosexual or homosexual. It's a cultural issue that can sometimes be indicative of homophobia in a country, but as we have seen with Taiwan, the opposite can also be true. In many cases it's simply indicative of nothing more than political theatre.</p> [[User:DragonSign|DragonSign]] ([[User talk:DragonSign|talk]]) 09:34, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
* '''Support''' - It is the first Orthodox Christian country to do so, and is also only one of 37 (out of 197) nations which have done so - less than a fifth of countries have legalised same sex marriage, which is far from a majority and is unfortunately almost half the amount of countries which criminalise same sex activity (65). For both of these reasons I believe this is still significant news and should be included in ITN, especially when we include far less significant events like big sports games.

*'''Oppose''' - the article is incomprehensible to me. I've been looking at it for 5 minutes, and I simply don't know what's going on. I say that as someone with no previous understanding of how elections are done in Pakistan, and who hasn't read any news articles on the election results, other than the headlines. For example, in the header box, it notes that all 336 seats are up for election. But in the [[2024 Pakistani general election#Provisional results by party]] section it lists total of only 258 seats (declared?) with 7 left to declare. In the info-box it shows Khan as the leader of a party called "PTI-Ind". However that isn't a party, and Khan isn't even running for a seat and thus is ineligible to be PM. The references are whacky - what are [1] and [2] doing as references - surely they are notes. The "Seats needed" in the box is just confusing - everyone needs 169 seats. And getting this number by subtracting the 2018 results doesn't work, as seats have changed since the previous election. Instead show "Seats won", "Seat change". There needs to be a full table of results, similar to the 2018 election. At this point, I'm not sure the result is even clear. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz|talk]]) 19:38, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
::{{ping|Nfitz}} There're a total of 264 general seats, with the remaining reserved seats [Elections are not conducted for these reserved seats.] Presently, results have been announced for 256 out of the total 264 seats. As for Khan's leadership status, he has been designated as the leader due to his association with the PTI-backed independent candidates. More detailed information on this matter can be found in the section titled [[2024_Pakistani_general_election#PTI_de_facto_ban_through_intra-party_election_verdict]] within the article. And how about we omit the numbers for now, since the legitimacy of many of these results is being contested by the PTI.  --[[User:Saqib|Saqib]] ([[User talk:Saqib|talk]]) 21:04, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

Once these seats are allocated, the dynamics will shift significantly, potentially placing independents in third position. Independents cannot vie for reserved seats, so it's prudent to wait until these seats are allocated before determining the election outcome.

Five security personnel were killed in an attack in Kulachi, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, while a polling station in the same province was shelled by mortars. Two security officers were killed and nine wounded by a blast near a polling station in Lajja, Balochistan, while two people were injured following 14 "minor blasts" in Gwadar.}} So, with such a wave of violence associated with the election, we should provide a more comprehensive account rather than cherry-picking two particular incidents 100 miles apart.

** Given what the Grammys are, which is a lot of awards, in addition to who presented and performed, this is going to be table heavy. There could be more prose around the ceremony as sites digest the information, but it is not absent prose and what I would expect pre-ceremony is there (nomination process, voting process, and general setup of the ceremony). But a lot of that is unreferenced, and again, while the award/nomination tables can be satisfied by a link to the Grammy's own page, the "# of noms/wins" we have determined cannot be left like that without clear sourcing to support it.

*'''Oppose''' Due to unsourced tables, particularly {{section link|66th_Annual_Grammy_Awards#Multiple_nominations_and_awards}}, which goes beyond simple [[WP:CALC]].

*'''Weak oppose''' &ndash; Article indeed needs more prose and citations overall. The "Performers" section gives more details about the ceremony than any other, and it's all written from the perspective of when performers were announced, which is largely no longer of encyclopedic history and just recounting news stories. I don't think the article needs much work to fulfill prose requirements, though. Don't know how necessary citations are for the tables, though I highly doubt we'll find a source counting up all the acts that received exactly two nominations, so there's some original research cruft here that can almost certainly be cut. ~[[User:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#005080">Maplestrip/Mable</span>]] ([[User talk:Maplestrip|<span style="color:#700090">chat</span>]]) 08:13, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

* '''Support''' with a different blurb based on Altblurb 1. It's the restoration of power-sharing in the Province that's the main headline here, but I do think that if we blurb that, it's worth mentioning Ms O'Neill taking office. Contrary to what Masem has said, Michelle O'Neill is the first person to serve as [[First Minister of Northern Ireland]] who was ''not'' originally from NI - she was born in the Republic of Ireland. And she's also the first politician of Irish Republican affiliation to hold the post, which is what's being highlighted here.

*'''Weak Oppose''' While interesting from a historical trivia perspective, politically its significance is doubtful. Sinn Fein got all of 29% of the vote in the last election. The reason they hold the position of FM as I understand it, is because the unionist vote was severely fragmented. They are trying to pretend that this represents a substantial movement towards NI joining the Irish Republic, which is nonsense. A solid majority of NI electorate remain firmly unionist. -[[User:Ad Orientem|Ad Orientem]] ([[User talk:Ad Orientem|talk]]) 23:13, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

::{{tq|While interesting from a historical trivia perspective, politically its significance is doubtful.}} Hard disagree. O'Neill is the first Irish nationalist politician to be the head of government for Northern Ireland, since its creation in 1921. In terms of the history of the province, this is incredibly significant. If I may be bold in my comparison, this has the same level of significance within Northern Ireland as Barack Obama becoming the first African-American President the US.

::::You can't directly compare vote percentages between the Northern Ireland Assembly and the US Presidential Election in that manner, as they are two entirely different electoral systems, with two entirely different mechanisms for voting. And the significance isn't that O'Neill advocates for Irish unification, Sinn Fein have been doing that pretty much since the creation of the province. The historical significance is that O'Neill has become the first Irish nationalist politician, of any party, to hold the position as head of the Northern Irish government. Until today, every First Minister for Northern Ireland and every [[Prime Minister of Northern Ireland]] had been a unionist politician. [[User:Sideswipe9th|Sideswipe9th]] ([[User talk:Sideswipe9th|talk]]) 23:42, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

::::::It is not an electoral fluke. Northern Ireland is not a two party state, it is a multi-party state that has 5 major political parties; [[Sinn Féin]], [[SDLP]], [[Democratic Unionist Party|DUP]], [[Ulster Unionist Party|UUP]], and [[Alliance Party of Northern Ireland|Alliance]], and three [[Cross-community_vote|political designations]]; [[Unionist (Ireland)|unionist]], [[Irish nationalist|nationalist]], and Other. Since the creation of the Northern Ireland Assembly in 1998, the highest vote share for any political party was [[2007_Northern_Ireland_Assembly_election|30.1% in the 2007 election]]. Sinn Féin's vote share of 29% is about average for all of the historical holders of the First Minister role. 
::::::The long term historical significance is that in the 103 years since the creation of Northern Ireland, there has ''never'' been a non-unionist head of government. Other than going into the deep, and contentious history of Northern Ireland and the intentional demographic choices made during the [[Partition_of_Ireland|creation of the province]] to ensure there would always be a unionist majority government, I don't know how to state it in any other frames of reference than I already have.

::Basically every thing you have said here is misleading at best and incorrect at worst. Both the Republican and Unionist votes are "fragmented" as you put it, and always have been. There are numerous parties with distinction beyond their position on the union. As for "A solid majority of NI electorate remain firmly unionist" it is a plurality, not a majority, let alone a "solid" one, and polling neither asks and nor records a level of "firmness" in that plurality.

*'''Comment''' I was going to nominate this based on the exceptional length of time that Northern Ireland has not had an Executive, and because it lets the [[Windsor Framework]] go ahead, which is part of Northern Ireland Brexit terms. The Framework is also part of the reason why Northern Irish political parties agreed to have an Executive again.<br/>In terms of the blurbs, '''alt1 is not accurate''' - power-sharing has been in place since 1999 and the creation of a Northern Ireland Executive. Every N.I. government has had power-sharing and it is not the reason the government has finally been restored. All of the others are fine for use, though alt3 seems bland and doesn't provide the context required for ITN. [[User:Kingsif|Kingsif]] ([[User talk:Kingsif|talk]]) 00:09, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

*'''Support alt2''' Based on comment above. I might prefer an alt that also mentions the Windsor Framework, but trying to summarise that seems difficult and it would make a long blurb too long.

*'''Weak support''' &ndash; I like the feature of this subject and it is significant. I feel like the "First Minister (2024–present)" section on O'Neill's article should be expanded upon, or otherwise the [[2024 Northern Ireland Executive formation]]-article should be boldlinked (eventhough it has the same problem). Regardless, the articles both present the history of the past two years well, with a few rich details.

*'''Support''' - The knee-jerk "subnational" response doesn't sway me, nor does the misleading assertion that [[WP:ITNGLOBAL|global notability]] is required for ITN stories, a criterion which is not applicable to [[WP:ITNSIGNIF]]. When this election is framed in the proper context - the stalemate, the DUP boycott, the history of Irish republicanism in Northern Ireland, the role of Brexit and the [[Windsor Framework]] - there's a larger story here than just a provincial election. <sub>Duly signed,</sub> '''[[User:WaltCip|⛵ <span style="color: white; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: bold; background: linear-gradient(white, blue, navy, black)">WaltClipper</span> ]]'''-''<small>([[User talk:WaltCip|talk]])</small>'' 13:59, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
:* What election?  The election was back in 2022.  The big issue here is the resolution of the Brexit and Windsor Agreement matter and the return of devolved government.  The nominated article says nothing about Brexit and the Windsor Agreement and all we're getting is a dubious claim of a first.  Insofar as there's a larger story, this doesn't address it.  The significant news here is that the UK government has published a legal protocol for post-Brexit trade which the [[Democratic Unionist Party|DUP]] has accepted and so power-sharing is restored.  O'Neill doesn't belong to the DUP -- she's in a different party and so her role is a side-effect rather than the main breakthrough. [[user:Andrew Davidson|Andrew]]🐉([[user talk:Andrew Davidson|talk]]) 15:01, 5 February 2024 (UTC)
:*:{{tq|all we're getting is a dubious claim of a first}} It's not a dubious claim. If you check the [[Prime Minister of Northern Ireland]] and [[First Minister and deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland]] articles, you'll see that there has never been a nationalist politician who has held the office of either Prime Minister or First Minister. All Prime Ministers of Northern Ireland were from the [[Ulster Unionist Party]], and until Saturday all First Minister's of Northern Ireland had either been from the Ulster Unionist Party or the [[Democratic Unionist Party]]. Given the [[The Troubles|long and bloody history]] of the province, that the office is now held by a nationalist ''is'' a historic moment, and one that the [[Partition_of_Ireland#Long_Committee_-_Six_or_Nine_Counties|creators of NI's borders]] wanted to prevent from happening.

We wouldn't post the leaders of any of those. The long interregnum is unusual and relates to wider issues, but those weren't solved by this appointment. Also, the assembly grants equal powers to the 'first minister' and 'deputy first minister', who have always been one unionist and one republican. They're effectively the same office, which is why we have [[First Minister and deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland|a joint article about them]]. The only 'first' here is purely semantic, regardless of how much the parties involved try to promote their own significance.

Also had a civil war which although over even in its guerrilla form, there is still ever present fear of violence, and does still occasionally happen on political lines.

*:If all these are connected, we should be able to readily find sources in media and use their term for it. But I do feel this is more Wikipedians making this an umbrella term, the more I think about it, so this is probably OR to categorize them all under this.

Former Wikimedia Russia director, our fellow renowned wikipedician, university professor and lecturer Stanislav Kozlovsky was declared yesterday a foreign agent in Russia. Wikimedia Ru which was branch of Wikimedia already closed. This is very harsh label, it requires to specify in all publications that author is foreign agent, which is not feasible for university professor. While many famous public figures in Russia were given this label, in this case it is especially harmful, while he can not do educational work in Russia anymore. This event concerns Wikipedia, and not only because he won't be able to edit Wikipedia. This is a clear signal for Wikipedia in Russian language, and for people who edit it. There are many publications and sources on this, but they are mostly in Russian. In Russian Wikipedia, the news was already put on ITN.

::Life, with a minimum sentence of 22 years for the girl, and 20 years for the boy. I realise now that I worded blurb 1 really badly. I'll tweak it in a moment. [[User:Sideswipe9th|Sideswipe9th]] ([[User talk:Sideswipe9th|talk]]) 01:43, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
:::In America we call that 20 to life and 22 to life. [[User:Sagittarian Milky Way|Sagittarian Milky Way]] ([[User talk:Sagittarian Milky Way|talk]]) 02:34, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' good faith nom. We posted the murder. There is nothing unusual about the convictions and/or sentences that justify blurbing the article. -[[User:Ad Orientem|Ad Orientem]] ([[User talk:Ad Orientem|talk]]) 01:47, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' posted to RD, so the article was already featured for the same event; also, I know there is no minimum deaths, but ITN has sometimes refused to post mass shootings. I'm not seeing how sentencing for the killing of one person is significant enough for the main page without it being a public figure. Is this really major front-page news? [[User:JM2023|JM]] ([[User talk:JM2023|talk]]) 01:52, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
*:Yes this is really major front page news on the UK. Every major UK news publication has at least one article on the sentencing on their websites. Both The Guardian and The Telegraph are running front page stories on it on [https://news.sky.com/story/tuesdays-national-newspaper-front-pages-12427754 Saturday's printed editions]. Due to the public interest, the sentencing hearing was broadcast by Sky News and BBC Radio 4, something that is quite unusual for a crime of this nature. The killing itself has been described as particularly sadistic in nature, with a secondary motive being anti-trans hatred. Killings perpetrated by teens are also pretty unusual in the UK. 
*:Were this a crime in the US, or another country where mass shootings are sadly common place, I'd agree that this wouldn't meet the ITN criteria. But I think you have to judge news from each country by their relative standards for what is or is not common or routine. [[User:Sideswipe9th|Sideswipe9th]] ([[User talk:Sideswipe9th|talk]]) 02:24, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
*'''Strong Oppose''' I don't see anything significant in the sentencing in this case. The significance would come from the event itself, not the trial. In addition, as stated above, we have already posted this to RD, which I think is sufficient coverage for this event.

*:Not to [[WP:BITE]] a newcomer to ITN/C, but RDs are required to be fully-cited. It’s just how we do it, especially considering BLP standards. Your insistence that these articles missing citations “look fine” aren’t helping.

*::More specifically BLPs (which include BDPs) are supposed to be fully cited, so that extends to RDs for all purposes. It is a shame that entertainer articles don't see the same care and rigor that most other BLP areas typically see, but that's a long-standing problem on WP.<span id="Masem:1706968023203:WikipediaFTTCLNIn_the_news/Candidates" class="FTTCmt"> —&nbsp;[[User:Masem|M<span style="font-variant: small-caps">asem</span>]] ([[User Talk:Masem|t]]) 13:47, 3 February 2024 (UTC)</span>
