National Ultra Endurance Series

I'm going to lean weak keep on this. A 5-minute WP:BEFORE turned up this, and I was not comprehensive:
- Seem independent [1][2]
- Perhaps not independent [3]
- More than passing mention, borderline sigcov [4](see both pages)
- some minor coverage [5][6]

Keep per siroxo. In addition, my incomplete review of newspaper sources also suggests that this series is the regular recipient of nontrivial coverage, e.g. [7], [8]. [9]. That said, most of the coverage is mostly about individual races, e.g. [10]. In view of that, I wonder if there might be a reasonable way to merge this into Marathon mountain bike races, which is a bit thin at present. -- Visviva (talk) 23:10, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. As shown above, sources are good enough to keep under the WP:GNG. gidonb (talk) 03:16, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete For starters the original author has admitted to WP:PAID and is now banned for advertising so this article is already off to a bad start. Not to mention this article has been deleted before already. The social impact section doesn't exactly help WP:CORPDEPTH and seems to be of a promotional thing. For the remaining relevant part, I see two references are just interviews with the CEO and nothing else so we cannot use them per WP:ORGIND. The other references are just short mentions of the company. - Imcdc Contact 05:44, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment mostly due to the war in Ukraine there is now SIRS-coverage of the company in major Swedish news outlets. Unfortunately, I really can't spare the time to fix the article rn. Draken Bowser (talk) 11:24, 29 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Can you post some article links if you have time User:Draken Bowser? I can try updating the article with sources. - Indefensible (talk) 03:48, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
On a revisit I'm not sure it's at GNG-levels, there ain't much on the early history of the company, but there sure is a lot of coverage: [11], [12], [13], [14], [15]/[16], [17], [18], [19], [20], [21], [22]. You'll probably need sv:Mediearkivet-access if you haven't got it already. The articles are mostly paywalled. Draken Bowser (talk) 20:21, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Might be an issue if they are paywalled but I will review. - Indefensible (talk) 20:30, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Probably enough to keep it, but at minimum can be merged with its parent Sigma AB if not. - Indefensible (talk) 23:43, 4 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Taking into account this article's history, User:scope_creep's knowledge and expertise with WP:NCORP and my own reading of the article, my inkling is this company is not notable. Acknowledge, there's plenty of references added, unfortunately unable to see many of them in detail. Opposed to keep, but there is a case for merging to the parent company Sigma AB, especially if Sigma Software is now a wholly owned or near 100% subsidiary (looks like it but haven't been able to categorically determine). Rupples (talk) 12:48, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sigma AB owns 60% of Sigma Software from what I could find. - Indefensible (talk) 05:00, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, this looks to be the case from the company's website. Didn't find the info. yesterday but did today by searching with a more specific query. Don't think the company meets NCORP on its own, but as you say, a merge to Sigma AB might be a valid alternative. The amount of content merged would have to be significantly trimmed to avoid giving WP:UNDUE weight. Not altogether convinced a merge is appropriate that's why I'm not formally recommending. Rupples (talk) 15:27, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The creator editor has been blocked as a UPE for covert advertising. I see a whole load of their previous articles have been deleted and more will be. scope_creep^Talk 19:01, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or redirect TNT this, I'll add a sentence or two at Sigma AB pending expansion. Draken Bowser (talk) 19:37, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The deed is done, I think we can redirect now. Draken Bowser (talk) 18:43, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Sigma AB#Sigma Software as its parent and the way the two are branded. Not ideal as its only 60% owned, but a reasonable outcome. Rupples (talk) 19:07, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into Sigma AB per above. There is probably a bit more which could be transferred over in my opinion. - Indefensible (talk) 21:21, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Disagree. User:Draken Bowser has pretty much got this spot on by only including in Sigma AB non-promotional content from reliable, independent sources. If promotional content is added from the Social impact section of this article, the Sigma AB article starts to look like a proxy for this one. Rupples (talk) 23:17, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Right now it does not mention the early history of the founding of Sigma Software in 2002. If this article is combined with the parent then it should cover more details like that. - Indefensible (talk) 00:09, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sigma Software as a brand was launched in 2014. Draken Bowser (talk) 20:08, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is more to a company than its brand name. Right now the parent article covers the acquisition in 2006, the renaming in 2014, and recent activities because of the war. But not the founding. Why? That does not seem consistent. If this article is merged or redirected there, we are going to lose some content. - Indefensible (talk) 20:29, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Well, since the article subject is Sigma AB it kind of makes sense to include any information on Eclipse as a subsidiary, but I'm not sure it makes sense to relate the independent company's early history. Draken Bowser (talk) 20:39, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It does and would cost very little in my opinion. Sigma AB only has 60% of Sigma Software based on the source that we have, that is enough for majority control but still leaves a good portion in outside control. If we remove this article then we should include some more in that article, it would not be promotional and is just giving more information. - Indefensible (talk) 21:55, 12 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

West Side Story (1979 film)

Appears to fail WP:NFILM, nothing found to support inlcusion except the book mention, which may not be indepth DonaldD23 talk to me 15:40, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The current sourcing is inadequate to demonstrate notability. But this looks like a mainstream Egyptian film that should have generated coverage at the time in local media. Would need a search by someone with working Arabic and access to Egyptian news archives to better determine notability. Eluchil404 (talk) 01:48, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unsure why I've been tagged? Giant Snowman 17:35, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge the one cited sentence to West Side Story § Films, without prejudice to future restoration if sources are found.

Barton, Newfoundland and Labrador

A one sentence article; I added one profile cite, but lacks WP:SIGCOV to establish notability JoeNMLC (talk) 23:20, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawn by nominator - article now has sufficient content to establish notability. Thankyou to all who helped improve this one. JoeNMLC (talk) 17:01, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

~~Speedy Delete~~ - Notability (geographic features). 2007 one-line article. The only source here is the travel gazetteer added by AFD nominator JoeNMLC today (see above). It shows nothing more than a little tourist map that looks like the area is non-notable. Per a decision by Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee in 2016, creating editor WayneRay has been been banned indefinitely by the Wikimedia Foundation from editing all Wikimedia sites. — Maile (talk) 00:50, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - per added info. — Maile (talk) 13:11, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ - WP:RS search came up empty. Google Earth shows 10-15 homes strung out along about 1 km of highway. Google Street View shows an empty rural highway great for a car commercial about exploring wide open spaces. --A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 02:11, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep per Eastmain's good find below. It's just a paragraph but also a big one, authoritative and comprehensive. Notability is not temporary; there was a small community there a long time ago. --A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 15:00, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Coverage by the Encyclopedia of Newfoundland and Labrador at https://collections.mun.ca/digital/collection/cns_enl/id/1540/rec/1 is enough to establish notability. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 08:41, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

CW Real Estate

Flowery text used, winner of a non-notable award. Largely appears promo. Many of the sources used read as PR pieces. Not meeting notability requirements. Oaktree b (talk) 22:39, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as quite obviously promo and (less obviously, but I googled a bit) non-notable. Deckkohl (talk) 18:01, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete fails WP:NORG, which must have significant, in depth, independent coverage on the subject. There must be absolute minimum of two such sources and one of them has to be broad audience such as national or international. Needless to say, they all need to be reliable source. Graywalls (talk) 23:28, 9 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep i understand that it is a company which is likely trying to appear on wikipedia. Since there are other companies alike on wikipedia, I think it should be kept for further review by other editors who are likely to come across it.Engrdrizzy (talk) 09:43, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Evidently promotional sources - the newspaper articles look as though they've been written from a narrative put out by the company. Major doubt over the independence of the content WP:ORGIND. Sources in the article don't satisfy the indepth coverage required by WP:CORPDEPTH. Found nothing from searching that does either. Rupples (talk) 23:28, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Holidaze (comic book)

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

An article on a comic, seemingly created by the author of said comic, that does not appear to pass the WP:GNG. While the Bleeding Cool review being used is decent-ish (about two paragraphs of coverage on the series), the other reference being used is a dead link, and as the error page for that is from WordPress, I suspect it would not have been considered a reliable source anyway. Searches turned up no other coverage from reliable sources that I could find. Rorshacma (talk) 22:12, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NCOMIC/WP:COI. For starters, ProQuest has 3,461 hits for standalone "Holidaze" at this writing, but none mentioning writer Dave Dellecese and/or artist Andrew Cieslinski.

Al Moses Manerson

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

I have carried out WP:BEFORE for this biography of a music producer and manager, and only found this reference from The Urban Buzz, which I'm not sure is reliable. The main reference in the article as it currently exists is to an offline biography from PSI North-South Partners, which appears to be a PR company. The two references to the person's company website, BluRaffe, are failing to load for me. I do not see that this person meets WP:NMUSIC or WP:ANYBIO. The article has been tagged with One source since 2011 (it arguably has three - the PSI biography, Blu Raffe and an article from Variety which doesn't mention Manerson) and with Notability since the same date. I did remove some unsourced content before deciding to nominate this for AfD, which you can see in the history. Tacyarg (talk) 20:32, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete - we should have an article about this man -- he's the head of the journalists association in South Sudan, a country that routinely arrests and abuses journalists. But our notability requirement is less about who merits an article than our ability to make a reliable, properly referenced article. In Mr. Oyet's case, we just don't have anything with substantial coverage from a reliable source. Google found 41 articles in various languages. Lots of good passing mentions in reliable sources but just not enough to build an article. This becomes even more important since this is a BLP. It's also a BLP that is more likely to get tampered with, so best delete it if our sourcing is incomplete.

Please ping me if somebody finds something.

The article is a WP:COATRACK for a WP:FRINGE theory of EuroMaidan that has been promoted mainly by Russian state media. Katchanovksi himself is notable neither as an academic, nor as a writer.

Comment: I’m on the fence. He is also a real academic, and coauthor of the respectable Historical Dictionary of Ukraine. But I cannot confirm that he meets any of the criteria at WP:PROF. Google Scholar shows a small number of works with a lot of citations,[25] but are there enough in peer-reviewed pubs to support notability? —Michael Z. 13:19, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Admittedly, the only case for notability from the article itself is his Maidan false-flag theory, and IMO that is kind of like WP:1E, which can appear in articles where it belongs and doesn’t warrant an author’s bio. I see he is currently linked in Euromaidan (EDIT: deleted)[26] but not mentioned nor cited there nor in Revolution of Dignity, nor Maidan casualties.

Even if you consider Katchanovski a “creative professional” (when he held a seminar at his university and brought a paper to the annual meeting of the American Political Science Association) and the thesis “a significant new theory,” it was originated by fringe websites (like Global Research.ca) and Russian state media (like RT (TV network)) in February–March 2014, not by Katchanovski in October. —Michael Z. 15:23, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Incidentally, the more appropriate guidelines for this line of thought are WP:PROF, criteria no. 1, 4, or 7, and I don’t think they are met. —Michael Z. 16:00, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand. Which "significant new concept, theory, or technique" did he pioneer? The Maidan sniper "theory"? I think the criteria uses "theory" in a different way from, say, "conspiracy theory"; it means some significant new theory in some scholarly field, for example. He definitely doesn't meet WP:NAUTHOR. But odd to judge him there given he is not a journalist and his books are academic. More apt guideline to check would be WP:PROF. BobFromBrockley (talk) 14:00, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

To clarify my nomination: going by the details of his biography, the only possible criterion of WP:PROF that Katchanovski might meet is 7 ('The person has had a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity') and that impact is essentially solely for the false flag theory of Maidan. Unless there are other grounds for notability -- and I do not consider that his written works qualify him as a notable WP:AUTHOR -- it would be better to include this this theory in the appropriate article on Maidan rather than a biographic article. Nangaf (talk) 19:58, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not notable per WP:NACADEMIC. As the proposer notes, the article is a mess, mainly about a conspiracy theory. Adoring nanny (talk) 13:10, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Another user is suggesting we keep per WP:NAUTHOR item 2, which says says 2. The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique. (emphasis added). Katchanovski fails this because the conspiracy theory is not significant. It's also unclear to me if he originated it. Adoring nanny (talk) 15:07, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, I think it respects WP:SCHOLAR as it is widely cited in academic studies:

Quoted in Google Scholar 1557 times, with h-index 21 and i10-index 36.[27]

"The separatist war in Donbas: a violent break-up of Ukraine?" Cited 148 times.

"The paradox of American unionism: Why Americans like unions more than Canadians do, but join much less" Cited 132 times.

"Cleft Countries. Regional Political Divisions and Cultures in Post-Soviet Ukraine and Moldova. With a Foreword by Francis Fukuyama" Cited 77 times.

Widely quoted in Google Books.[28]

Widely quoted in Google News.[29]

I would also urge colleagues to use the term 'conspiracy theorist' with care (per WP:BLP) because this academic is not widely referred to in these terms in the sources.--Mhorg (talk) 19:32, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So what? Are you saying people with those numbers all automatically meet some particular notability threshold? I don’t know what those numbers mean.

I don’t know how many citations or whether those citations are “independent reliable sources” or indicate “a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources,” or “a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity” (WP:PROF). —Michael Z. 20:46, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Heh, “widely quoted” in the news, with results topped by The Grayzone, editorials under his byline, an interview by the Tehran Times, and some lefty websites obsessed with “Ukrainian Nazis.” —Michael Z. 21:21, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

He is a well-known scholar. For example, some important Western sources quoted him:

Mhorg (talk) 22:28, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

These alone qualify him under NPROF #7 BhamBoi (talk) 07:55, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

One of these is an op ed by him. None of them are about him. One of them (La Razon) quotes him extensively; the others are a single quote. This does not demonstrate "substantial impact". BobFromBrockley (talk) 11:06, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please see my note above. While it is possible that the false flag theory of Maidan might qualify as 'substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity' based on media coverage, since Katchanovski's notability does not extend to any other topic, it would be preferable to include what is notable about the theory in the appropriate article about Maidan and delete the biographical article, since he is WP:1E and the article a WP:COATRACK. Nangaf (talk) 20:04, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It is difficult to say what exactly was his "substantial impact" (in academia and outside). Is he an author of the Maidan "false flag theory"? Hardly. That has been debated and investigated by others. See this NYT investigation, for example, that does not mentioned Katchanovsky [49]. We can only say his claims on Twitter and elsewhere were briefly mentioned a number of times. They were usually trivial comments on current events. My very best wishes (talk) 15:45, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please be careful about using 'Generating disinformation' per WP:BLP. The source you brought in does not use such terms when talking about this person. Mhorg (talk) 18:09, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that particular publication does describe the "theory" as refuted misinformation and cites him as the source of the "theory". Quickly checking, one can find this opinion by Taras Kuzio who says about two papers by K. which, according to him, "have generated controversy because they are revisionist and have little in common with academic scholarship." My very best wishes (talk) 20:42, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Katchanovski's academic output is meagre and not by itself sufficient under WP:NPROF. What evidence is there of any influence on his field? Nangaf (talk) 20:07, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. First of all, he hardly passes WP:GNG because most cited sources only mention him or his work in passing, there is no more substantial coverage. These are really just citations of his claims. Yes, his claims are highly controversial and as such were cited in various contexts. Which boils down to the only significant argument to "keep" this page: he has a presumably high citation H index. But is it high enough to establish notability? I am not convinced. Looking at the guideline, Wikipedia:Notability_(academics), it says: Citation measures such as the h-index, g-index, etc., are of limited usefulness in evaluating whether Criterion 1 is satisfied. They should be approached with caution because their validity is not, at present, completely accepted, and they may depend substantially on the citation database used.. Still, the current version of the page is sourced. A promotion? Yes, maybe. The involvement of someone "with close connection to the subject", the prolonged discussions, waste of time and claims about this page becoming an "attack page" [51] tips the balance toward "delete", in my opinion. My very best wishes (talk) 15:45, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It would be first deletion of the page, that I'm aware of, because it is "unconvinient". For real, the only thing that should be our focus is the notability, and Katchanovski as an established academic clearly is notable enough. Marcelus (talk) 15:54, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WP:COI editing, for example someone creating an article about himself or a friend/collaborator, can be an argument for deletion. Someone with a potential COI who also creates a disruption (such as the IP involved at the article talk page I think) can only make it worse. Hence my comment. Just to be clear, I am talking about a potential COI only by IP accounts (such as [52]), not by anyone else. My very best wishes (talk) 16:16, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There are 8 conditions listed under WP:NACADEMIC. Number of citations, per se, is not among them. Typically it means professors or academics of a similar rank.

Malcolm Collins is an author, business person, philanthropist and advocate of the pronatalist movement. As an author, the subject is self-published. As a business person, we have little to no evidence of notability. As a philanthropist, likewise.

Keep - I think this vote is more a reflection of the beliefs of the nominator rather than any real question as to if there is enough coverage to justify a page. There coverage by almost every media source ranging from the left's Huffington Post, the Telegraph, MSNBC, Piers Morgan.. all the way to the more left NYPost. I wonder if the nominator's beliefs might not align with the Natalism or eugenics beliefs that the subject endorses? Quick look and both voters on here do substantial article creation on muslim subjects. None of their articles seem to be as well referenced and cited. If there is a question about the content, which it seems to be all well cited.. keep it published and let people work on it. They certainly get enough coverage and it will likely continue. As for publishing, at least one book is on a WSJ best sellers list.. His business press seems to be well documented over several different companies.. PCMag, VentureBeat, etc..I think he was a 500 alumni and exited. I can't imagine any objection to this being a relevant wikipedia subject doesnt have more to do with more religious objections to their use of embryo screening. A search reveals a plethora of coverage in tv, print and podcasts.. Thanks for your consideration.

@Merrymilkman1, thanks for talking to us. In a few days, probably within a week, a non-involved Wikipedian will take a look at this discussion and "close" it, as we say around here. Depending on their closing-comment, we'll see what can be done then.

Almost everybody you encounter here has WP as hobby (at times maybe also passion or obsession), and anybody who wants money for it is most likely scamming. Our admins don't charge "service fees", and they don't have any final say on what goes into an article anyway.

Delete - I have some familiarity with Hungarian music and the language, but via more targeted searches all I can find on Ms. Székely are basic directory entries that say little more than what is in this article. She studied with Bartók, found some work as a concert musician and piano instructor, wrote some books that appear to all be out of print. Unless an expert on both the language and classical music of Hungary can dig up some old but reliable sources, there is not much to work with here. Despite having a connection with one famous musician and getting some books published in her time, Ms. Székely seems to have been an honest but ordinary working person like everyone else, and therefore not notable enough for an encyclopedic article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:02, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Doomsdayer520,

Thank you for your research.

I originally created this article 10 years ago after reading one of Székely's novels (in its French translation). I thought it odd that she didn't have an article on Wikipedia and wished to include her so that other people could be aware of her work. I had actually borrowed the book from a regular library in Paris, without looking for particularly old writers. This translation was published in 2005, which I find rather recent for an early 20th-century Hungarian writer.

That being said, I don't feel I have sufficient knowledge of Hungarian culture to argue whether this person is notable enough for an encyclopedia article. Enqueror (talk) 18:46, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:ANYBIO#3 and her her entry in the Magyar életrajzi lexikon (Hungarian Bibliographical Dictionary). I'm surprised it's so hard to find any information about this author. She's got about 50 publications listed at WorldCat, and many of them are widely held at libraries around the world, including at the British Library, the Library of Congress, Columbia University, and UCLA. This suggests (but does not prove) that her collective body of work is significant or well-known. I'm suspicious that, because she worked mainly in Hungarian and before the internet era, the necessary sources may be off-line and hard to find. pburka (talk) 16:35, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: She has a page on the Hungarian Wikipedia: Székely Júlia (zongoraművész).I don't know Hungarian, and I'm not certain I want to use Google Translate to copy information over.

Significa liberdade (talk) 21:06, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Hungarian page has a more precise history of her professional life, with a mention of first joining a symphony in 1929, some major productions that she was in, and then her transition to teaching and writing. It's not very well supported; as one example, the statement "her 1939 novel The Flying Mouse proved to be a great success" has no reliable source. Concerning the progress of this AfD, I already voted to delete but I have no dispute if things turn out otherwise.

Comment Is "Gimme A Break!" quite popular? It never made it to the UK, so nothing to compare it against. I did a pretty solid WP:BEFORE and couldn't see much at all. The gbook references is a passing mention at best, confirming she was in the series, but not much else. Refs 1 to 4 up there at best are passing mentions. Not much there at all. scope_creep^Talk 17:41, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To answer your question, Gimme A Break! is indeed pretty popular. AFAIK it is still in syndication, and is frequently mentioned in pop culture media. It helped boost Rosie O'Donnell's career as her first casted role. It's made it onto international "Nick at Nite" lineups, which is a decent measure of it's significance (this probably could be added to the show's article). —siro χ o 19:54, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - there appears to be insufficient support for WP:NACTOR or other notability according to the guidelines and available sources. A source noted above by Siroxo, The show must go on: how the deaths of lead actors have affected television series, Douglas Snauffer, 2006, has two sentences about Hendler: [70] (at p. 124, noting she played Julie on Gimme a Break!) [71] (at p. 136, noting she continued to act in guest roles on several shows) and a quote from Hendler at p. 137 [72] about Nell Carter. Another source cited above by Siroxo is a 1986 Customs Today article [73], a magazine published by the U.S. Customs Service, with a passing mention noting Hendler's appearance as a speaker at a rally sponsored by the US government and referring to her as "an actress on the NBC-TV hit series, Gimme a Break." The other source noted by Siroxo above is Stories I only tell my friends : an autobiography by Rob Lowe, briefly mentioning Hendler's role in A New Kind of Family at p. 77 [74]. In the article, the Encyclopedia of Television Shows, 1925 through 2010, 2d ed. includes Hendler in a cast list with a brief description of her character on Gimme a Break. A redirect could be created to Gimme a Break!, because this appears to be the only significant role she has had (according to available sources), but there do not appear to be sufficient independent, reliable, and secondary sources available to support WP:BASIC or other notability for a standalone article.

Keep He was a Catholic Bishop in Italy for over 10 years, so very likely notable, just almost all the sources to demonstrate his notability will be in Italian not English, so difficult for people here to locate. For example, news article reporting on his funeral, another one, March 2003 article from La Stampa mentioning him. Actually La Stampa ran a whole series of articles on his funeral (even if brief), which is evidence that he was a person of some importance in his region of Italy (as you'd expect a Catholic bishop to be in a Catholic-majority country): [75], [76], [77], [78].

Mark Tinley

AfDs for this article:

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

Fails WP:GNG. Relies exclusively on primary sources; current sourcing consists of a post he wrote himself, two interviews, a non-independent source with a trivial mention of him, and a webpage that doesn't mention him. I was unable to find any good secondary sources. Much of the information in the article is unverified (probably unverifiable) and possibly false. A few examples: he is not credited on several of the albums the article claims he worked on; the article claims he founded several nightclubs, yet there is no evidence of him founding any nightclubs; the article claims he formed the first acid house band, yet no sources about the history of acid house corroborate this; the article claims he is a founding member of the group TV Mania, yet he is not mentioned in the bio on the band's website. Also, it appears to be an autobiography (see WP:AUTOBIO); the creator of the article is called Marktinley (User:Marktinley). JMB1980 (talk) 00:20, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The Sound on Sound article is listed as a reliable source by source bot. I've found this [88] in a book, seems ok. I think it's at GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 00:53, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Those are both interviews, which are primary sources and can't be used to establish notability. JMB1980 (talk) 22:47, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Seems verified by Mix magazine, which should be reliable as an industry magazine [89]. Also the fact that the subject may have created the article is probably moot now as it was over 16 years ago with 70+ edits by over 40 users. —siro χ o 07:43, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
His name appears once in the rather lengthy Mix article; this is the very definition of a trivial mention (see WP:SIGCOV). The fact that he apparently had to create this page himself is relevant because it is a testament to his lack of notability. Per WP:AUTOBIO: 'If your life and achievements are verifiable and genuinely notable, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later, but creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged'. JMB1980 (talk) 06:28, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The Mix magazine reference just helps with independence/verifiability. Other sources may be able to provide SIGCOV. It's definitely a borderline case so every bit helps.

Perhaps making the decision a bit harder, but fairer, I don't think the fact that the subject likely created the page 16 years go should affect this current AfD due to the gap in time and the edit history of the article. Any number of independent editors could have created the page in the interim. —siro χ o 06:51, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think you're jumping ahead. First, notability needs to be proven, and only SIGCOV can prove notability. Without any instances of significant and independent coverage, this page doesn't meet WP:GNG guidelines and should be deleted.

It's impossible to say for certain whether or not an independent editor would have created this page if given the opportunity, but it seems unlikely. Under 75 edits in almost 17 years isn't a lot of engagement compared to other articles of similar age, and many edits can be accounted for by editors making multiple edits (including Marktinley) and bots. The fact that this is an apparent autobiography is not the deciding factor in whether or not the article should be deleted, but I do think it should be taken into consideration.

Delete. Sources in the article are poor. Book source mentioned in this AFD is a 6 page chapter about Mark Tinely, but over half of it is quotes, suggesting that the entire chapter was written based off the content of an interview, so not intellectually independent. Does not appear to pass WP:GNG. No redirect target comes to mind. –Novem Linguae (talk) 23:58, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - there appears to be secondary content in sources (Sound on Sound, Mix, Musician, etc) that can be used to verify his career and support his WP:BASIC/WP:CREATIVE notability as part of Duran Duran and other groups; the book source also includes biographical information, e.g. about his career and his Asperger's diagnosis. Beccaynr (talk) 04:24, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The WP Library also has a 2019 Mixmag source "The Keyboard Wizards of Acid House," by Thomaas H. Green (Database: MasterFILE Complete), with brief discussion of Tinley and his brother in the context of the development of electronic dance music, e.g. "His brother Mark had co-created one of the earliest UK house tunes, ‘The Garden Of Eden’...". I think sources with secondary context that discuss Tinley decades later add support for notability and can help develop the article. Beccaynr (talk) 21:43, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I was unsure as of my previous comment. Now, keep per WP:BIO, If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability. Thanks to the mix of sources, I think we're well into that territory now. Past all that, another interesting boost to notability is that this individual was a feature of an ad campaign in magazines for Iomega Jaz drives (eg [90] lots of printings). As in, the company invoked him by name and image to help advertise their product in magazines. —siro χ o 20:10, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Seems like already-present sources [91][92] are sufficient for WP:GNG. There's other interviews I wouldn't apply to GNG [93][94][95] but serve as a bit of a confirmation that this is not a run-of-the-mill minor leaguer. —siro χ o 03:54, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per references above. Also apparently named pitcher of the year in the Northwoods League for 2016: WT hurler named pitcher of the year which isn't enough by itself but another element contributing to his notability. Skynxnex (talk) 21:57, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
