This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Kentucky. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Kentucky|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Kentucky. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to US.

Biography of a criminal that is notable only for their crime (WP:BLP1E) which was created as a draft by a sock then moved to mainspace by their master account. If the crime was particularly notable it could be moved to a more suitable title focusing on the event, but there is (unfortunately) nothing particularly notable about the murders that extends beyond WP:NOTNEWS. Ponyo^{bons mots} 21:45, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

weak keep: Extensive local coverage [1] provides a bit of background. i suppose a triple life sentence would meet criminal notability. Happy to !draft instead, this person isn't going anywhere for a long while, so there is time for more coverage to happen. Oaktree b (talk) 22:26, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Not worthy of a biographical article per WP:BLP1E, with barely any content in the article that indicates a lasting impact and failure to meet WP:NEVENTS in the case of the murders themselves. JeffSpaceman (talk) 00:09, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Crime, Events, and Kentucky. Skynxnex (talk) 00:23, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete does not meet WP:CRIME - there is nothing unusual about this crime (unfortunately) and the victim is not an internationally known celebrity. There's simply no hook for an article in this story. Lamona (talk) 04:28, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable 9/11 victim's memorial page. Wikipedia is not a memorial. Fails WP:BLP1E. Acebulf ^{(talk | contribs)} 10:48, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Women, Indiana, Kentucky, New York, and Texas. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 10:51, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect (as article creator) per WP:REDIRECT. While the article probably fails BLP1E, which I take full responsibility for, a redirect to List of victims of the September 11 attacks (O–Z) is better than nothing, where information on the subject still does exist. Sir MemeGod  12:35, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Very much a non-notable individual, routine office work. Wiki is not a memorial and this person isn't more or less notable than the hundreds of others that passed away that day. There is no coverage about this person to be found. Oaktree b (talk) 15:03, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep - I have no problem keeping this. As for the oft-quoted policy of Wikipedia not being a memorial ... we sure seem to bend the other direction at times: List of Texian survivors of the Battle of the Alamo and List of Alamo defenders, etc. etc. Most of the people on those lists are only notable for that one battle. Wikipedia is often a memorial of one subject matter or another. — Maile (talk) 20:35, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand your argument. Is your argument that WP:BLP1E doesn't apply here? We can point to lots of WP:OTHERSTUFF, but it doesn't override policy. Acebulf ^{(talk | contribs)} 23:48, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

*::It wasn't an argument - I'm OK keeping this as is, per Sir MemeGod above. No opinion of whether or not to redirect it. The rest of my comment was just a general passing comment that Wikipedia sometimes varies in how things are applied, etc. — Maile (talk) 23:58, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am confused here. SirMemeGod wants to redirect the article and admits it fails BLP1E. There is no "Keep per Sir Memegod" because the argument is one that argues for redirecting. Could you clarify your position a bit? Acebulf ^{(talk | contribs)} 00:27, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:BLP1E, WP:NOTMEMORIAL. – Muboshgu (talk) 14:05, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment @Sir MemeGod @Acebulf@Muboshgu Do you guys mean WP:BIO1E? She died in 2001, so I've having a really hard time seeing how WP:BLP1E applies. GreenLipstickLesbian (talk) 22:13, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'm assuming they meant BIO1E, at least that's what I meant. ~~Why do we need so many abbreviations?~~ Sir MemeGod  22:16, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, derp. Acebulf ^{(talk | contribs)} 01:06, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to List of victims of the September 11 attacks (O–Z), with a possible select merger. While very sad, I don’t see significant coverage outside of her birthplace newspaper. Bearian (talk) 02:14, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Shadow311 (talk) 22:49, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment:This can probably be closed, as everyone is in agreement that the article should either be redirected or deleted, and the main and pretty much only significant contributor to the article is also in agreement. Sir MemeGod  12:12, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and Redirect are two very different closures. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 19:57, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per Bearian, with some of the information from this stand-alone article going into that composite victims article page. There is not enough for a stand-alone article on this victim, but the content would be appropriate along with other victims in a joint article. It would require some rewording however to make sure it is NPOV. Royal Autumn Crest (talk) 18:00, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
