Comment Without reading Bengali it's effectively impossible to find more sources as the subject has the same name as a former Pakistani president. However as a two star admiral I’d expect him to be a GNG pass. Mccapra (talk) 00:27, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Unless I am missing something, there is no subject-specific notability guideline to that effect. His position does not necessarily guarantee coverage, and whose name he may share isn't a good reason to toss GNG to the wind. Garsh (talk) 02:35, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Being head of a national coast guard clearly makes him notable. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:11, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Some will argue that because we have an article about the admiral who heads the US Coast Guard, we should have an article about the admiral who heads the Bangladesh Coast Guard. The latter may be as worthy an individual and as deserving of notice as the former, but the reason we have notability guidelines is so that we can write a whole, fair, and balanced article. For whatever reason, Ziaul Hoque has not been written about in any depth in reliable, independent sources (even in Bengali). It is not acceptable for an article to be based entirely on government press releases (which are one-sided), and self-published sources that have no reputation for accuracy or fact checking. Those are the only sources available about Ziaul Hoque, so we should not have a stand alone article about him. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:11, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep There's enough here to show GNG. She's written a book that Martin van Beynen has called "bestselling". It created a lot of publicity, for example, John Campbell interviewed her for 10 min on Radio New Zealand. She gets keynote speaking slots and, whilst that's nothing unusual, it is unusual when Stuff reports on that. She's been invited to give a talk at TEDxChristchurch and it takes quite something to get invited to TEDx. The pieces by Kurt Bayer (NZHerald; based in Christchurch), Eleanor Black (Stuff), and Now to Love (which belongs to Are Media) go into plenty enough depth to fulfil the criteria of three independent reliable sources. And all those sources are in the article already. All up, that's an easy keep. Schwede 66 04:23, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The Waikato Times piece is a promotional piece for the business awards. The Now to Love piece is just her interview with Women's Daily. The other Stuff piece is also a promotional piece.

This is the same for most of the refs, they're either promo pieces or interviews about Gloriavale. Traumnovelle (talk) 06:20, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep plenty of media coverage from reliable outlets here to establish GNG. David Palmer//cloventt ^(talk) 20:59, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a lot of media coverage but it is promotional/non-independent.

Refs 1-4 are Tarawa herself, they shouldn't be used in the article except in limited aboutself uses, let alone go to notability.

Ref 5, supplied piece from the festival she appeared at.

Ref 6, women's day interview

Ref 7 is about Cooper's conviction and just drops a promotion for her book in it... which is odd. Bit of coverage here but not much and it is still in relation to Gloriavale.

Ref 8 same coverage but more blatantly promotional this time

Refs 9 and 10 have the exact same wording as refs 7 and 8 which makes me believe this is some promotional thing sent out to papers, that or they just simply copied the Herald, either way the refs adds nothing to notability.

Ref 11 is a promotional piece.

Ref 12 is a promotional interview

Ref 13 is an interview

Ref 14 is another interview that involves promoting the book

Refs 15-16 are reprints of Herald refs mentioned earlier

Ref 17 uses same wording as the other promotional pieces

Ref 18 is a promotional interview

Ref 19 is a promotional interview from women's day and the same ref as 6.

Ref 20 isn't promotional or an interview but very brief coverage (3 lines) as part of her grandfather's death

Ref 21 is an interview

Ref 22 is from Tarawa herself

Ref 23 is a promotional piece for the Matamata business awards

Ref 24 is a broken url but it is a very brief interview

Refs 25-27 are interviews

Ref 28 is promotional

Ref 29 opinion piece and it provides little coverage anyhow

Ref 30 is brief coverage of the book

Ref 31 is dead but appears to be a blog from an unreliable source

Ref 32 is about someone else's death

Ref 33 is the exact same as ref 32.

Ref 34 is the same as 9, 9 is presumably a reprint of it. Contains the exact same sentences used in the other promotional pieces

Ref 35 is about Gloriavale but suddenly just drops in the same promotional content about Tarawa's book seen before.

Ref 36 is a radio interview, not even an RS.

Ref 37 is a podcast interview.

Ref 38 is a promotional piece for some event she was invited to

Ref 39 is another piece on Gloriavale that just suddenly includes the same promotional content as else where, it is really odd and I cannot see a reason for it other than being sponsored/paid for it

So yes, there is a lot of media coverage, but little of it is independent, most of it is from the same source, and plenty of it is promotional. The fact that two identical articles are used as a reference right after each other just looks like COI/Paid editing with refbombing so it looks notable. The user who wrote most of this article is now blocked for copyvios but from looking at his contributions I think he may have been a paid editor.

Battle of Sebiba

Fails WP:GNG. M.Bitton (talk) 17:01, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep (with improvements) - appears potentially notable based on scale of the battle. Second source seems to be The Complete History which is a significant work. Probably needs some "according to" etc. given that we are inevitably dealing with historical accounts. Per WP:NONENG if any of the statements are controversial, some translated quotation of the original source(s) might be helpful. YFB ¿ 17:24, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History, Military, and Tunisia. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 18:15, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Per nom. Can't find any mention of this in reliable (English) secondary sources, so it's certainly not a major or noteworthy engagement. Ibn al-Athir (The Complete History) and al-Idrisi (quoted in text) are primary sources, so even if there's no WP:OR involved here (which I'm not confident about), its mere mention in primary sources, in the absence of any mentions in secondary sources, means it doesn't meet WP:GNG. Overall, it just looks like another pseudo-puffery piece squeezed out of an obscure historical military engagement. R Prazeres (talk) 19:55, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not easy to research this topic as most of the Arabic-language texts I can access e.g. via Google Books don't seem to support text selection (to check translation). However I found the following paper in the Algerian Historical Journal (for example) via a quick search for معركة سبيبة (Battle of Sebiba) https://www.asjp.cerist.dz/en/article/224926

I'm not sure how Ibn al-Athir can be considered a primary source in this context? He wasn't born until 95 years after this battle took place and he doesn't appear to have been directly connected to either of the combatant tribes. But IANA historian so perhaps I'm misunderstanding how this works. YFB ¿ 20:54, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I found a French translation of Ibn al-Athir which is a bit more accessible to me at least. There is a whole section devoted to this battle, the context and its aftermath so it does seem fairly significant. Quick Google translation below of an extract:

"Then the Riyâh' and the Zenâta all set out together, and on his side En-Naçir having advanced at the head of the Çanhȧdja, the Zenâta and the Benoû Hilal, the two armies met [ P. 31 ] near the town of Sebiba ( 1 ) . Following the charge which the Riyâh' and El-Moʻizz made respectively against the Benoû Hilal and the Zenâta, these last two groups fled, and the troops of En-Naçir imitated their example. The fugitives were pursued with swords at their backs, and twenty-four thousand Çanhâdja and Zenâta were massacred. El-K'ȧsim ben 'Alennâs (2) , brother of En-Nåçir, was also killed, but the latter himself was able to flee with a small number of his men. The Arabs thus became masters of a rich booty consisting of everything that belonged to the vanquished, money, weapons, horses, etc., the sharing of which was carried out as agreed. This affair completed the Arabs' complete mastery of the country; having arrived without resources, poor and having very few horses, they then found themselves rich, abundantly provided with weapons and mounts, in the presence of a country almost without defenders. They sent the standards, the drums, the tents of En-Nâçir and the horses they contained, to Temim, who sent them back to them, saying that it would be shameful for him to seize the spoils of his cousin. The Arabs greatly appreciated this act of generosity."

I also found the following in https://www.persee.fr/doc/ccmed_0007-9731_1968_num_11_43_1452

"La défaite de Sabîba (1065), qui fait au Magrib Central pendant à celle de Haydarân, constraint bientôt al-Nâsir d'abandonner la Qal'a pour Bougie, qu'il vient de fonder (1068-9). Vannée suivante, il conclut avec Tamïm une paix que lui et ses successeurs respecteront jusqu'à la mort de Tamïm (1108)."

This is another secondary source that ascribes significance to the event. Definitely enough for GNG in my view. The article needs a lot of work, I will see what I can do to bring it up to scratch if retained or moved to Draft space.

YFB ¿ 00:45, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Another source, in English, which devotes more than two whole pages to this specific battle: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=BvTjCQAAQBAJ&pg=PA43 (pages 43-45) YFB ¿ 01:17, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for looking. That last source (Baadj 2015) is the only one that gives me pause about notability, but it's still just one book, which doesn't fully solve the WP:GNG problem because you'd have to write most of the article from this single detailed source. (As for Ibn al-Athir and Idrisi, as asilvering notes below they are primary sources in the sense that they are medieval accounts from the same era, so they should be mediated by professional historians.) A quick reading of Baadj's account also makes it clear that this article, as is, would need to be completely re-written to even be understandable. I'd support draftifying at best, if there's a chance a competent editor would rewrite it, but WP:TNT otherwise. R Prazeres (talk) 05:08, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Happy with WP:TNT. I will write a new article using the above sources plus this one https://ixtheo.de/Record/792329171 which dedicates three sub-chapters (6 whole pages) to the battle, its aftermath and a comparison to the Battle of Haydaran which was part of the same conflict. @M.Bitton would you be content with moving to Draft space for me to do that? YFB ¿ 21:49, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. M.Bitton (talk) 21:59, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Yummifruitbat well, he's a secondary source in the sense that he wasn't at the battle, but from the perspective of writing history, we don't want to be basing articles on what someone said several hundred years ago, with no interpretation by modern historians. -- asilvering (talk) 03:25, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A quick google search reveals that this term is used for many things, meaning I couldn't discern if it even deserved to be the primary topic. Intriguingly, most of the sources online were only mentioning it as if it were real, which compromises their usage.

Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:
People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.
- If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

This ship, and three other articles I am also nominating, were all members of the cancelled Stevenson-class destroyers. That isn't inherently a problem for notability, but de facto these four articles are almost exactly the same and do not say anything of substance beyond the content in the Stevenson-class destroyer article. In fact, most of the paragraphs have been copy-pasted between all five articles. Therefore, all four ship articles should be redirected to the article on the entire class. In the unlikely event sources are found that show one or more ship could sustain its own article, at that time the relevant article(s) could be restored.

Typical pretensions of grandeur, founded on weak or non-existent material. The sources used and found are plain listings, such as this, advertorials such as this, titled “Get to know Snik, etc” with full support by the record distributor, a report about another artist, e.g. this, or some half-serious aside of a text in reference to sexism in music, e.g. this. The lack of mainstream sources is not an issue, as the artist’s field of music is mostly ignored there, but there is little of anything anywhere. YouTube "success" on its own does not hold water and the fact that the article was curated mostly by kamikaze accounts, such as this one, accounts does not help. -The Gnome (talk) 19:55, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bob Connolly (Canadian film director)

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

Semi-advertorialized article about a filmmaker, not properly referencing any strong claim to passing inclusion criteria for filmmakers. The attempted notability claim here is that his work exists, which is not an automatic notability freebie in and of itself -- we would need to see some evidence of distinction, such as notable awards and/or WP:GNG-worthy coverage and analysis about him and his work in media and/or books. But this is referenced entirely to primary sources self-published by people or organizations directly affiliated with the statements they're referencing, which is not support for notability, and the article claims absolutely nothing about him that would be "inherently" notable without better sourcing for it than this.
Further, there are no inbound links here from any other page in Wikipedia but the disambiguation page at Bob Connolly, and this appears to be a conflict of interest as the creator (who created it in 2013 and has occasionally returned to edit the article as recently as August 2024) appears to have self-identified as Bob Connolly in past posts to Talk:Lee Aaron, but even people who do properly pass our notability and sourcing standards still aren't entitled to write or curate their own articles themselves.

Articles for deletion/Joan Murray (art historian)

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

The page was created by the subject, in an extremely self-laudatory tone that has since partially been repaired.

The sources are also extremely poor. The subject's coverage in the sources is either A. Not significant (i.e. the National Post article that literally just has a single line about her, the Macleans article that has merely 3 sentences about her book, or the Edmonton Journal article that reviews many books and only mentions Murray's books for a few paragraphs) B. Not reliable (not editorially neutral as in the example of the U of T award announcements) C. Not secondary (i.e. the multiple databases linked) D. Independent of the subject (three of the sources are authored by the subject, including her personal website).

The only sources that remain are a couple of decades-old newspaper clippings that support only a few sentences of the article.

It is clear that there aren't sufficient sources to write a fleshed-out article about her, and the only reason the article exists at all is because it was created by the subject herself with virtually no sources. It is obvious that the article was written with first-hand knowledge, only for the sources to try and retroactively justify what was written, when in fact very little of what is written in the article is contained in the sources.

Based on this, I propose deletion of the article. Andrew6111 (talk) 18:57, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep.

Keep - It is true that this was a COI creation (autobiography) which is strongly frowned upon but not forbidden, however the subject is indeed notable, and the article should be retained because it has encyclopedic and historical value. I helped to clean up some of the more obvious indications of COI/AUTOBIO like puffery, and also some copyvios, close paraphrasing, and original research, however it was quite clear to me during clean up and in a BEFORE search that Murray is notable per WP:NAUTHOR and WP:ACADEMIC, and based on the awards and honors she has received, also meets WP:ANYBIO.

Gbaby99 (talk) 03:21, 7 October 2024 (UTC)— Gbaby99 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

Just to be clear as more discussion rolls in, I am not questioning her notability here. I am questioning the sources. No matter her awards or books, there are extremely few reliable secondary sources independent of the subject. There are essentially 3 book reviews plus a newspaper clipping that pass that bar. I tried re-writing the article only using the information in those articles, which can serve as an alternative to deletion, but it was rolled back pending this AfD. Andrew6111 (talk)

Keep: No argument that the origins of the page are dubious, but the COI has been addressed. I note that the editors with conflicts have not touched the page in over a year. I am weighing in here with my perspective as an editor with in depth knowledge of Canadian art and art history to note that can be a challenge to find secondary source writing about curators, particularly in Canada. Doesn't mean they're not notable. Doesn't mean that there's a benefit to stripping out citations from the article, either - I can't see that as an improvement. the artchivist (talk) 13:45, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weakest of keeps Ibay's membership in the Manila City Council has been mostly nondescript until recently. Elections are in May 2025, and this early, politicians are jockeying for positions.

Biography of a person, not properly referenced as having any strong claim to passing Wikipedia inclusion criteria. As always, notability is not inherited, so people don't get Wikipedia articles just for being related to other people per se, and have to be the subject of a WP:GNG-worthy volume of reliable source coverage about them doing something noteworthy -- but being a family member of other people is the only notability claim on offer here, and the only footnote in the entire article is a genealogy of her husband on a Blogger blog, which is not a reliable or GNG-building source.

Dominic Foppoli

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

I am nominating per a request that I received by email by the subject of the article. We have here a local politician, mayor of a small town. He has received extensive coverage due to sexual assault allegations, and resigned under pressure. The coverage is basically a meet of the local politician wing of WP:NPOL, but there are surely some shades of WP:BLPGOSSIP and WP:BLP1E. I would be a weak keep in the absence of a request from the subject. We typically give a certain (small) amount of deference to the subjects of articles that request deletion, and this brings me to a weak delete. I do not think that an article on a short-time mayor of a small town is an essential article for Wikipedia, even in the presence of the allegations; while its presence is likely to take up a fair bit of editor time, without a corresponding payoff. (If kept, then I note that the "Accusations" section of the article could use a fair bit of streamlining per WP:PROSELINE.) Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:31, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I don't really see criminal notability; the mayor of a smaller town (under 25000) isn't an automatic pass. Most sources given seem rather salacious, attempting to paint a picture. "Mayor did or didn't get XYZ with the ladies", to be blunt, isn't terribly notable. Sounds like most of it is still unproven; he's not been found guilty. I'm not sure he would be notable even if he was guilty. Oaktree b (talk) 20:43, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep - Passes WP:RS. Reliable secondary sources are abundant and subject passes notability guidelines. Sourcing is abundant before and during/after allegations.

And the article can be expanded with new sourcing from The New York Times, ABC 7 News, KRON 4, NBC Bay Area, CBS News, People magazine, Fox News, Northern California Public Media, Newsweek, The Drinks Business, KCBS, North Bay Bohemian, ABC 25 WPBF, Newsweek...and many other sources that cover his time before the accusations.

I mean geeze, if that's not reliable secondary sources regarding notability I'm not sure what is. Improve, don't delete. Missvain (talk) 21:19, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep Of course the subject of the article wants it deleted. It documents five allegations of sexual assault against him. He easily passes GNG per the sources Missvain linked above. The Newsweek article by a senior news editor is on its own a strong argument for keep.JSFarman (talk) 01:13, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
While the subject's reasons to want it deleted are transparent, I do not think a desire to hold him accountable should factor into our deletion decision. There is certainly otherwise a respectable keep argument, even discounting the post-2013 WP:NEWSWEEK sources. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 08:39, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. (I was alerted to this by Russ Woodroofe because I was involved in prior discussion of this article at WP:BLPN and did some work on it at the end of last year.) As Missvain says, there's significant coverage of the allegations against Foppoli, including in the national press (NYT, CBS). There was also at least local coverage before the allegations against him were made public (e.g. [16], [17]) so it's not a WP:BLP1E situation. And while it is true that we give some consideration for BLP subjects' requests for deletion, WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE strictly applies only to non-public figures; it is hard to consider someone who has both held political office and appeared on reality TV shows a non-public figure.
In the end he's a former local politician who was never that important (mayor of a town of 25,000 is not a major public office!) so I struggle to feel very strongly that it's important to keep the article. On the other hand there's no really compelling reason to delete other than "person who spent fifteen years self-promoting has decided that they no longer want to be in the public eye now they have been accused of sexual assault by twelve different women" which I also struggle to feel a great deal of sympathy for.

Redirect to Port_Harcourt#Education - The single news report indicates the correct name is Starlet Academy (no s). Searches find almost nothing under either name, but what I found confirms the source is wrong. Starlets is correct. Some false hits about some Starlets Academy awards (to do with film making) and this place [18]. Also a UK registered company are not this academy. Neither is a hit from Kenya. The single source is a local newspaper publishing through Wordpress, almost entirely quoting a speech. Reliability unclear, and primary and not independent. They have a (primary source) facebook page [19], and a website [20] but it won't open. Here is a version from the Way Back Machine: [21] which confirms some information, such as the founder and that it was founded in 1997. All primary/not independent, of course. The school did win an award for value, described here [22]. Although I have not investigated the independence of the awards, on the face of it that is genuine. But this is a private school. It needs to meet WP:NORG and we do not have the required WP:ORGDEPTH sources to write an article. It is usual, for non notable schools, to redirect them to the school district. The Port Harcourt page has a section on education, but there is some work needed there, unfortunately. Secondary schools are being redirected to a list of schools in Port Harcourt, but the inclusion criterion of that list suggests a school must have a page to be included (although there is an entry without a page). The inclusion criterion is wrong. All schools in Port Harcourt should be included without a requirement to create a stub that adds no value to the reader. But, in any case, the redirect target is the best place to include information about the schools in the area. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:44, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - article seems well sourced, and several sources are in the late 2010s, some 40 years after the conflict itself, making a nonsense of the “no lasting coverage” claim… it’s… difficult not to see this as politically based spamming since the last couple of nominations on Indian-Bangladeshi border skirmishes from this same editor are just cut and paste, and they have nominated other similar articles last week too… I’ll assume good faith though, and just say that I disagree that the article meets the criteria for deletion based on the merits.

I remain confused at how the three last-minute delete votes on the day this was set to close can claim a lack of “modern sources” when the Indian Foreign Policy book, for example, was first written in 2007, with the 7th edition being linked to being published in 2018. Add in the cut and paste nature of the original nomination and… as much as I hate to suggest everyone isn’t arguing in good faith, this feels like brigading?

Also…. I don’t think that’s how WP:NOTNEWS works? Given that this happened almost 50 years ago? Absurdum4242 (talk) 18:11, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Absurdum4242: Notwithstanding how other participants have phrased it, WP:LASTING refers to lasting effects, not lasting coverage. The single 75-word paragraph in the book is lasting coverage, and distinguishes this event from some discussed at AfD recently which have none, but that paragraph's conclusion is telling: "forces of the two countries clashed but the tension soon cooled down." Nothing significant happened. No one was killed, injured, or taken prisoner; no territory, booty, or reparations changed hands; no new method of determining the border was adopted; no treaty was signed. The event was not a precedent or catalyst for anything. There were no lasting effects. The paragraph in the book suggests that the event may be worth a paragraph in an article more broadly focused on Bangladesh-India border relations. It is not suitable for a stand alone article. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:55, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Bangladesh–India border as an alternative to deletion. This article is not primarily about the 1979 border firing. Three-quarters of it is about border incidents before or after that. The 1979 event had no lasting effect and there is limited sustained coverage of it in secondary sources, making it a poor choice of topic for a stand alone article. It would, however, be worth a paragraph in a broader article that put it in context with the many other exchanges of gunfire across this border. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:33, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and keep improving. Passes WP:NCORP and WP:GNG. As for the problems with WP:PROMO, it looks like a couple of editors have removed some of the puffery; more could be done but this can be done over the normal course of editing. Of the coverage already cited in the article, the best source is probably the Fortune India article titled "The Dairy Disruptors" which looks at Milky Mist's business alongside its competitors in the private dairy market, and examines the challenges they face in competing with the milk cooperatives. Turning to ProQuest, this 2024 Businessline article, "Inside Milky Mist's paneer revolution", takes an in-depth look at the company's business and quotes an independent analyst who points out the heavy debt that company is carrying, as well as risks including pricing pressures and variable raw material costs. Skipping over all the in-depth feature articles on Milky Mist that are gaga about the company, like "Milky Mist's winning formula to transform consumer behaviour" in The Economic Times, we can still find other independent reports about Milky Mist's activities, such as this 2018 article about the cooperative Amul, which was being audited after allegations of financial impropriety, including deals it cut with Milky Mist.

Some options might be to merge the contents into Northwestern South Asia, to redirect to Northwest India#Ancient era, or if seen as necessary, to create a new article called 'Northwestern Indian subcontinent' and then include the post-1947 history of the region as well into that article.

Comment: Despite their inclusion in reliable sources, I don't think all of the listed podcasts can be objectively considered "travel podcasts" rather than podcasts about history and culture. For example, The Bitter Southerner is not about travel. It turns out that this particular podcast does involve travel. Also, it might be fine to have "travel podcasts" that are not "podcasts about traveling". Helpful Raccoon (talk) 21:26, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@OlifanofmrTennant: every entry in the list has a source that calls it a "travel podcast". Can you explain what you mean by WP:INDISCRIMINATE or indicate which of the four examples it falls under (NOTPLOT, NOTLYRICS, NOTSTATS, or NOTCHANGELOG)? TipsyElephant (talk) 23:32, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It best fits NSTATS but not really. It's more the fact that Travel podcast isn't an article therefore list of not notable thing isn't notable. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 01:21, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is your deletion rationale that the list is not notable then? This list could pass WP:NLIST independently of whether Travel podcast passes WP:N. It's also worth noting that WP:LISTCRIT states that While notability is often a criterion for inclusion in overview lists of a broad subject, it may be too stringent for narrower lists. So not all entries in the list have to be notable and notability does not have to be the criteria for inclusion. TipsyElephant (talk) 01:53, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The library in Spotify/Overcast/Apple is pretty massive. If they're not notable they shouldn't be listed.

All of these lists of podcasts are problematic, simply listing a fraction of those available to listen to with no clear inclusion criteria. Reywas92^Talk 03:53, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:NLIST because travel podcasts have been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, which is demonstrated by the existing references. TipsyElephant (talk) 19:27, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources.
The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability#Stand-alone lists, which says, "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list." I will show below that "travel podcasts" has been treated as "a group or set by independent reliable sources".

Jhala dynasty

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

This article is another installment of a WP:WALLEDGARDEN on the Jhala family created by a now-blocked sockmaster. (See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Harpal Dev Makwana for an example of a deleted article in this set and Jhala (clan) for an appropriately sourced version not created by a sockmaster. The core sources for these articles are books of purported genealogy published by Jhala family descendants. This article takes a legendary genealogy and launders the sources to present it as history:

The first set of sources are the unreliable ones:

Genealogy, Archive, Image: Interpreting Dynastic History in Western India is edited by two Jhala family members, including one who presents himself as heir and descendent of Harpal Dev and the current head of the so-called "dynasty." It includes fantastic stories from the vahi (legendary geneaologies of high-caste Indian families), for example one figure defeating a ghost in battle and marrying a goddess who supernaturally rescues their children from an elephant.
Ulian's Rajput is a self-published book that repeats and embellishes the same rather fantastic legends.
Kumarapala-prabandha appears to be mostly a repetition of legends
This book is self-published through vanity press Notion Press.

Meanwhile, the independent sources do not present any of this legendary genealogy.

Ramusack's The Indian Princes and Their States has a single WP:TRIVIALMENTION of the Jhalas (page 73)
Naravane's The Rajputs of Rajputana has a single paragraph describing the Jhalas as a "minor clan."
Singhji's The Rajputs of Saurashtra discusses the Jhala Rajputs but says of the earlier stories, "Bardic tales about their migrations from the Himalayan region to Sindh seem to contain little truth."

Additional sources include WP:RAJ-era surveys of questionable reliability and WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS in a gazetteer.

In short, what WP:SIGCOV we have on the Jhala dynasty includes legend repeated by WP:SPS and WP:COI sources. The independent coverage, such as it is, does not establish facts about this dynasty as presented in the article. With an adequately sourced article on the Jhala (clan) I think the best approach to this compromised article is WP:TNT. Bottom line: Fails WP:V and WP:GNG for lack of SIGCOV in independent, reliable, secondary sources. Dclemens1971 (talk) 05:37, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History and India. Dclemens1971 (talk) 05:37, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Looking at the article page, it does not seem to contain any far-fetched claims except the Origin section which should be renamed to 'Origin legend' or clarified that it is a traditional legend.

Also, the argument for unreliabity of the source Genealogy, Archive, Image: Interpreting Dynastic History in Western India being that the co-author is a Jhala doesn't seem valid considering that there are probably a million of Jhala people and shouldn't make them ineligible to write on the subject. Both the authors are also scholars in anthropolgy with Jhala having served as the Professor of Anthropology at Temple University as per the linked press release.

I do believe more context can be added regarding the tradtional sources the authors have used. But deleting the article would be an extreme step. The subject is very much notable. Many later kingdoms, states and principalities claimed descent from the members of this dynasty. Thank you. Krayon95 (talk) 09:16, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The problem with Genealogy, Archive, Image isn’t only that it’s written by Jhalas. It’s that one of the authors claims to be the head of the dynasty (see link above) and the book is an effort to launder legends into a historical account. The other reliable sources to discuss the Jhalas do not do this, as I noted above. The appropriately sourced Jhala (clan) article covers this ground without retailing legends as facts.

Delete Per nomination. But why did you accept this AfC draft? TrangaBellam (talk) 16:05, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Per nom. Non-notable chess player who played in non-nontable tournaments and has not made a significant and substantial achievement nationally or internationally worthy of notice to warrant a page on. Fails WP:NBIO, WP:SPORTCRIT, WP:GNG. RangersRus (talk) 21:32, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. OP's acceptance of the AfC draft only to nominate it for deletion a minute later makes me concerned something WP:POINTy is going on. AfD does not exist to be used as a tool for making some kind of point to another editor. It's a process that costs a lot of time. If OP thought the topic was not notable, then OP should've saved us all the trouble by not accepting the submission at AfC. In any event, the topic apparently had one of the most sensational results in chess history, and there's multiple sources covering Sarayu, including in the context of that apparently landmark and sensational showing: [28] [29]. The particular competition's prominence might not personally impress OP (or at least, OP since a minute after accepting the article at AfC), but it apparently impressed people who observe and write about chess. Hydrangeans (she/her | talk | edits) 08:58, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Per Hydrangeans. Also she was ranked 27th in the world among women and 2nd among girls at her peak rating of 2444, and is still comfortably among the top 100 women and top 10 girls. Sounds pretty notable to me. Bubka42 (talk) 22:36, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify As I stated before I did say I wanted to keep, considering Hydrangeans reasoning was valid enough. But now due to the comment from RangerBus the matter of WP:BLP1E is significant considering how her importance did rise up until the tournament.

1) https://www.newindianexpress.com/cities/hyderabad/2023/Sep/14/checkmate-queen-meetvelpula-sarayu-a-17-year-oldchess-player-from-warangal-2614552.html https://telanganatoday.com/sarayu-emerged-champion-at-hcc-chess-tournament She establishes notability as presented in news articles.

2) As well as her https://2700chess.com/players/velpula_sarayu ratings in India (women) along with her global ranking for women and how she placed second in a competition beating everyone except a GM https://www.chess.com/news/view/indian-1800-rated-17-year-old-with-sensational-result 79lives (talk) 10:13, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I did some more research out of the sources on the page and still I do not find her being notable as of yet. Per chess.com, the number one reliable website with all informations and ratings, the subject as of Oct 5, 2024, ranks #2297 in world ranking and #42 among under 20 aged ranking in India. She was rather unknown but became recognized by her performance at tournament Pontevedra Open in Spain in 2023. WP:BLP1E. Though she didn't win, she came in 2nd. But I do not see that she participated in same tournament again in 2024 or any other well known major national or international tournament where she got significant coverage. She doesn't hold the title of IM (International Master) or GM (Grand Master) like other under 20 aged players in India and world. Notability is a strong problem with this subject. Maybe it is too early. RangersRus (talk) 14:31, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am changing my decision! I feel like now we should draftify considering the point for Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons, if she does come up in more tournaments and is considered better for her performance after a few of them then she can be put on an article perhaps.

Delete. Staggering lack of sources -- all coverage is from the local government, which is obviously not independent. The lone non-government source makes no mention of this election. This is undeniably a case of CRYSTAL, and I question whether this election will ever be notable considering the articles on previous years are sourced to the city council itself and one local newspaper (failing GNG and SUSTAINED).

It might be better to have an article about Toponymy in Karelia instead of focusing on the exonym aspect, as it might be difficult to separate Finnish and Karelian names, and Karelian names are not exonyms anyway. There could also be an article about Toponymy in the Karelian Isthmus, which is a special case, since the all the names were changed there in the 1940s. This would discuss both the old Finnish/Karelian names and the Soviet replacement names.

The Maverick Effect

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

The book's page should be deleted as it fails to meet the notability guidelines for books, which require significant, independent coverage. The primary reviews cited to establish the book's notability are compromised due to conflicts of interest: one reviewer, a former brand custodian of a NASSCOM-affiliated company, currently advises on brand reputation to various IT companies in India as declared in the review's byline and actively promotes this book across social media as a part of its portfolio work, while the other is openly declaring himself as a personal friend of the author in the byline, making both reviews biased and unreliable. Furthermore, the remaining coverage consists only of trivial mentions and promotional excerpts, lacking substantial, independent analysis. As such, the book does not meet the criteria for a standalone Wikipedia article. Charlie (talk) 04:38, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The article needs complete rewrite for sure. But I have added urls of 2 independent reviews. Reception section can be rewritten from it. - Nizil (talk) 06:26, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Nizil Shah I manually reinserted the two independent reviews you added, as they were not generating automatically. Thanks for adding those. Charlie (talk) 08:35, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, no sources given at all. The only one I could find was this review, but I'm not sure what it is worth. Either way, not enough for notability. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 04:13, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Hell Rell. Found no reliable coverage beyond the RapReviews piece Chaotic Enby linked (regarded as a reliable source per RSMUSIC). No appearance of an NALBUM pass. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 06:31, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of convex regular-faced polyhedra

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

The list may seem to be redundant, consisted of convex polyhedron's classes in the following: we have five Platonic solids list, we have Archimedean solid and Catalan solid's list, and we have Johnson solids list. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 00:43, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Quite obviously it meets WP:NLIST (see e.g. [35], [36], [37]) and the fact that we have articles on subsets of these objects does not mean it is 'redundant', no more than a list of countries is redundant by the fact we have articles on the individual countries.--cyclopia ^speak! 16:24, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete probably. This is essentially redundant to List of Johnson solids, which is better. The only main difference is that this one also includes the regular and uniform polyhedra (including extra entries for specific cases of prisms and antiprisms), which as the other list notes, are sometimes excluded from being called "Johnson solids". Having a whole separate article just to address a difference in naming convention seems unneeded. Maybe there's a better solution here, but this list isn't it. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 14:04, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Palaeotapirus

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

According to Cerdeño and Ginsburg in 1988, the name Palaeotapirus was invalidated by Depéret in 1904 because the fossils were more closely related to those of Chasmotherium (not a tapirid), and he replaced the genus name for "Tapirus" helveticus with Paratapirus. While this should sound like an easy redirect, the issue is that there seems to be one later-described species Palaeotapirus xiejiaheensis that may still be pending a reassessment. Also, on a side note, "Palaeotapirus yagii" was reclassified to the new genus Plesiotapirus. Whether or not the page should be kept, renamed, or redirected on the basis of one species pending a reassessment is worth discussing. PrimalMustelid (talk) 00:17, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ideally merge somewhere. This is an interesting piece of historical trivia that, while insufficient to support an article on its own, should be kept in the encyclopedia precisely for the purpose of preventing a reader who sees this word "in the wild" from continuing down a dead end of searching for meaning.

Merge with Tapir#Extinct_species: Was a valid thing, has valid supporting refs, but doesn't merit a full article. Merge to where it can be discussed, then redirect to there. - UtherSRG (talk) 11:55, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Merge if possible, or just Delete. Certainly no need to keep this as an invalid taxon. YorkshireExpat (talk) 15:02, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
