This is a curious case, because it does look like a mistake, but one that can actually be seen. When you go to GMaps, there is a farm at the location specified by GNIS. But going back in the topos at Historic Aerials reveals an interesting editorial mark. I do not know where the copies they have scanned came from, but up until the 1990 version they show, there's a building, a benchmark, and the road, and that's it. But the 1990 copy has "Hot Springs" handwritten across the road from the house, and the benchmark altitude (4181 ft) handwritten as well under that. The next copy in 1996 has the label and the height in a bold, sans serif font; after that, the label moves across the road to where the building was indicated and changes to the town name font, and finally it disappears altogether in the 2018 copy. Going further afield, the maps show an area labelled "Kellog Hot Springs" and a "Hot Springs Slough" running north from there. Meanwhile, I find the following in Fairfield's history of the county (p. 101): "This year a man named Wasson settled in Long valley at what is sometimes called the Upper Hot Springs, or the Hot Springs ranch." A book of California hot springs doesn't list anything I can identify with any of this. The upshot seems to be that there is no such community and never was. Mangoe (talk) 00:09, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment for now - An unincorporated place doesn't have to have people to exist. For example, in NC, each country is subdivided into 6 or 8 "Townships", basically unincorporated "towns". This was done for fire and police enforcement. Google maps shows "Hot Springs, Lassen County, California", which means a little but not much. btw, they don't need a hot spring to be called Hot Springs. It's just a name. I want to look a little more, but if it is a legally defined area according to the laws of California, it would automatically be included as a geographical location. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 00:47, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep - I found that it is shown as a township here [1] if you zoom in right, way up in the NW corner of the map, north of Leonard. It's just all farm land. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 00:56, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- From what I can tell (because the thing isn't working all that well for me) that's a survey township; the GNIS location appears to be in Township 38N 8E, Section 10. These townships are utterly lacking in notability, for the most part; they are just coordinates. In any case nothing shows that this 6 mile by 6 mile square is identical to this supposed community. My larger comment on your first response is that you give me the impression of fishing for a reason to keep an unexpandable and problematic stub rather than being able to show that it is a notable and actual community— which really means, given how GNIS defines "populated place", that it's a town or village or at least a neighborhood. Look, if you can find something that even says what this "Hot Springs" at this location was, it would help a lot. My problem is that the only thing I can find is the passage from Fairfield, and it suggests that it is indeed what the aerials and topos show: a single ranch or farm. Go ahead and find something else talking about the place, under that name, which elucidates things further. Mangoe (talk) 02:30, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- They are geographical designations. They have legal standing in the real world, and we've always kept accepted geographical places, be they mountains, counties, townships or whatever that a government would designate an official "place". An example is one I started, Browns Summit, North Carolina. As for policy, Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features), which in part says "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low.". By virtue of being a township, it is legally recognized. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 03:25, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Look, you are not seriously suggesting replacing this article with a different one on the survey township (which would have a different name), nor starting a series of thousands of articles on all the survey townships—or for that matter, thirty-six times as many section articles. "Hot Springs" is not a township: the spot that GNIS assigns to the name Hot Springs lies in a particular section within a particular section township, but they are not identical, and you have produced nothing to the contrary. We have been over this before: GNIS was only ever intended to specify which name is used for a feature, and even that has no legal standing: it only dictates government information processing. Mistakes in classification of features are common enough to where I and most other people dealing with it here on WP do not consider it reliable in that wise, because to be reliable, it has to be correct, and we have too many cases where it obviously is not. And GNIS does not assign names to survey townships, because they already are designated differently, using a numeric grid system.

- Your NC example is completely irrelevant, as there is ample current testimony to its existence as a town, seeing as how, for starters, it has its own zip code and a middle school. An article on a place whose town-ness is easily demonstrated is no argument at all for an article on a place where that demonstration is lacking. I would also remind you that WP:GEOLAND is not policy, and that its interpretation as a guideline is frequently re-argued because of the phrase "official recognition", which isn't as unambiguous as you seem to think. Finally, there is the problem that "populated place", as GNIS defines it, is not a synonym for "community". We have found many cases where the "populated place" is a single, isolated building and was never anything but. Mangoe (talk) 05:53, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- It is a guideline. And as I stated, we generally allow articles on govt. designated areas, irrespective of population or incorporation status. Being snarky doesn't change that. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 11:08, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete California does not have townships as governmental subdivisions like other states. There is zero evidence this has "legal standing in the real world" or is otherwise a notable place: survey townships are not automatically notable. We can see on the 1931 topo there were two instances of "Hot Spring" in this location, and the 1967 map has those Mangoe mentions, but no evidence of a community. Reywas92Talk 18:02, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete This looks like a hot spring that was labeled as such on a topo and then miscategorized as "populated place" by GNIS. "Unincorporated community" is a WP:OR label applied by an editor, not supported by any source. Appearing on Google Maps is meaningless because they scrape location data from Wikipedia and GNIS; see WP:GNIS for more on this. The only sources we have are maps and tables which are specifically excluded from establishing notability per WP:NGEO. Despite the speculation, we have zero reliable sourcing for the claim that this was a community, township or any other sort of officially-recognized place, much less a notable one. –dlthewave ☎ 20:02, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete WP:GEOLAND only gives near-automatic notability to recognised populated places, if this isn't one of those then it has to pass the WP:GNG, and it clearly doesn't because we're struggling to even show it exists. This isn't a recognised subdivision of California, if it was then you wouldn't need to zoom in on random maps selling land to prove it. There are places in Lassen County called Hot Springs (e.g. a peak in the Amedee Mountains called Hot Spring Peak, which once had a town), but none of them seem to be anywhere near this place, and there's blatantly no community there now.

This article has a lot of citations, most of them in French, so it is little difficult to see, but the amount of significant coverage in independent, reliable sources is insufficient to sustain an article. Another problem is the amount of original research. There are quite a few citations that don't mention the subject, for example in the section about the sweets and Trump, where sources that discuss Trump's tweets about skittles are well documented, but no mention of the subject is made, which are then combined with other sources to come to a conclusion that is not supported by the sources. Anoher example is the claim that the subject was involved in the purchase of Native American Hopi and Pueblo masks, which is well-documented as a purchase made by the Annenberg foundation and 1 item by the lawyer representing the Hopi, Pierre Servan-Schreiber, as detailed in [this newspaper article].

Offered the son of Cheetos-tinted president one of his edible sculptures via Tweet, then writes a invitation for T-Junior + family to visit his show! Last but not least a Hopi mask "called to him"! I actually laughed out loud when reading the article, but seriously, with so much failed verification, it is hard to say what may be credible and what is not. This will take a bit of unravelling.

- I will say I am Weak delete on this. The article is atrociously promotional and full of BS at the moment. The sources I saw were a Guardian review, a Gulf News review (same author as Guardian), something minor in Bloomberg, a profile in L’officiel (a French Fashion magazine apparently published since 1921), and this Book on Pierre Cardin, published by Flammarion,` the latter of which is not a source but gives some indication of importance. The French Wikipedia article just seems to be tagged for notability, with the same problem we have here: "Parmi les 60 (!) références, quelles sont les deux sources secondaires centrées qui attestent sa notoriété ? Translation: "60 sources... where are the two independent ones we actually need to prove notability?"ThatMontrealIP (talk) 03:02, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- ThatMontrealIP, I think there are two issues here; a) is the subject notable? (i.e. is there sufficient significant coverage in independent, reliable sources to sustain an article) and b) is there anything in this article than can be kept? My answer to a) is probably, my answer to b) is unequivocally no. A keep would be acceptable if conditional upon a complete rewrite. Even the text that is currently cited to reliable sources cannot be retained because there is so much WP:SYNTH. Would such an outcome work for you? Vexations (talk) 14:06, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Vexations: I actually changed my comment many times it within a few minutes of posting it, going from weak keep to neutral to weak delete. It is possible therefore that you were replying to an earlier version of my comment. I Found some sourcing but it is not enough. Still going with weak delete. The article, if kept would need a complete rewrite, and I don't think there is enough sourcing to justify that new article.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 14:53, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - I'm going to have to say delete on this. After going through a copy of the article and removing all the content referenced to primary sources, unverifiable content and sources that did not mention the artist, all that was left were a few trivial items that were more like press releases or listings, and one usable source (in STEIÐZ). I could not unpack the JSTOR item because it seems my library card has expired? The Bloomberg item is 2 sentences long. The L'officiel piece is an interview, and therefore a primary source. He did write the book mentioned above on Pierre Cardin, but it's just a listing of the book not a review of it. Not sure if that is enough to pass muster. I'm not one to invoke WP:TNT, but the best approach may be to simply start over if it turns out that he is notable. If good sourcing is found I could change my mind, but for now deletion seems appropriate. Netherzone (talk) 14:50, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

I agree with them that there might be a valid notable mouse crawling around under this nightmare haystack of peacock language, OR, bad sources, unprovable assertions, and relentless self-regard, but any keep would mean a complete re-write.

The result was redirect to League of Legends#Setting and lore. There's consensus that this fictional world is not notable. The edits to the article mentioned at the end do not change this, as far as I can tell: they appear to be mostly about various aspects of the video games at issue, and not so much about the fictional world that is supposed to be the topic of the article. Such content can still be added to existing articles, consensus permitting. Sandstein 14:46, 18 July 2020 (UTC)

- Redirect though not apposed to a Delete and Redirect. "Runeterra" is a clear search term for the game and should redirect there, but I cant see any of this content applying there at all as its all in-universe and sourced to game-related material. Maybe a brief statement of the realms, but not anywhere to this level. I don't see much material that can be rescued so a delete is possible. --Masem (t) 21:17, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Masem: The article has been massively improved since you last commented here. Just wanted to let you know.--Prisencolin (talk) 15:36, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect to Legends of Runeterra as a valid alternative to deletion. Clearly not an independently notable fictional setting, but as Masem pointed out, surely a valid search term for the main game, which includes this word in the title. Red Phoenix talk 22:08, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

- Please explain how this article meets the notability standards. The cruft being gone is good, but now there's not much of an article and no establishment of why this fictional world is notable outside of League of Legends and Legends of Runeterra. Red Phoenix talk 13:12, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Red Phoenix: The topic itself certain meets WP:GNG. Just look at all the references in the article: [1][2][3][4][5] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Prisencolin (talk • contribs) 16:03, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
- Having a number of references means nothing if the references are passing details or cruft. I want to point out that there are very few cases where a fictional setting warrants an article of its own. When would it? When it's relevant not just as part of a game or a book. Why? Because otherwise, it's all WP:INUNIVERSE and not meeting a worldwide perspective of someone who would know nothing of the topic. A good example of this is Death Star, which only exists because it has numerous cultural influences outside of just being part of Star Wars. Does Runeterra rise to that standard?

- @Red Phoenix: The article is no longer solely about Runeterra, it's been expanded to include the entirety of the League of Legends universe, supplemented by content that has already been written and included in the main article. Comparing this to the Death Star is an unrealistic standard and the article only needs to meet WP:GNG for inclusion, but for that matter it definitely has it's own cultural impact.--Prisencolin (talk) 03:06, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
- An article that complies with not being solely WP:INUNIVERSE is an unrealistic standard? I get that you're trying really hard here, but let me set the hard line for you: Prove it. If it has cultural impact outside of League of Legends, show that. If it does not, it should not be an independent article. It is then best covered in the main article without puffery.

- @Red Phoenix: Check the article again (restored the more lengthy version) only 793 words (4,881 characters) in two paragraphs out of the 1,461 words 9,030 characters can be construed as being in-universe. But the reality is there is detail about the development of the world and commentary from developers interlaced with in-universe statements.--Prisencolin (talk) 15:16, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

Reliability would also be questionable. #3 Some world information here, reliability questionable, no real critical analysis just cruft details. #4, like #1 is a passing mention in the context of a game announcement. #5, no coverage of the setting or lore, product announcement. #6 Two paragraphs, almost all of it fluff about "Have you been wondering about the world?". Really? Significant coverage? #7 Definitely has some lore details, but all within the context of a game and how to build decks. My !vote stays the same, there's nothing in any of this that shows an independent topic.

- You're assuming a lack of response indicates a lack of review or comprehension by participants. The issue remains the same. Coverage is of League of Legends.

- I'm not convinced that coverage by these sources would merit its own article. We need creation, development, reception, that kind of stuff. It's still WP:GAMECRUFT, mostly relying on in-universe details. These sources can make a properly referenced section on the main article.

- Comment Be aware that I have issued a warning to Prisencolin about disruption in relation to this AFD. During the AFD, the article was moved from Runeterra to "League of Legends universe and lore", which was opposed and moved back to Runeterra earlier today on technical grounds. Following this, Prisencolin stripped most of the content from "Runeterra" and tried to create "League of Legends universe and lore" separately, which I consider a disruptive attempt to circumvent this AFD discussion. I redirected it back. In addition, the absolutely unsuitable League of Legends champion was also created, and I've already redirected it. This was clearly an attempt to get around the previous AFD and AFC declines of Draft:List of League of Legends champions, which he's been forumshopping about. -- ferret (talk) 23:02, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
- Some of the claims in this discussion are complete nonsense and is clear that anyone commenting here has not actual read the entirety of the article. First: "It's still WP:GAMECRUFT, mostly relying on in-universe details." I will spell it out entirely here:

- @Soetermans: Apologies if I misunderstood you, but if you just admitted that you haven't fully read the article, than I'd think that means your opinion on this matter is invalid until you do.--Prisencolin (talk) 09:17, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- You'd like me to admit that I haven't read Runeterra? I copy-pasted the text into WordCounter. It's 206 words and takes approximately 45 seconds to read. I've done so three times now. Am I missing something? soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 09:37, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Soetermans: I'm talking about the old version of the article which is 2,163 words 14,588 characters (including references, which should all be looked over) according to WordCounter.net. And that version is not not just all unverified, overly detailed in-univeres information that would bore non-fans of the game. In case the old edit history in unavailable for some reason, I re-copy merged it into the mainspace article.--Prisencolin (talk) 15:05, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

- @Ferret: Systematic bias against this topic even within the gaming community itself is real, let's not be naive. I'm not just pulling these allegations out of thin air. If you need proof I can produce it. In any case note to closer while there appears to be more votes for a redirect than anything. There is no clear consensus what the target should be. Some are pointing to Legends of Runeterra and others to League of Legends. Until one of two can be decided upon, this afd shouldn't be going anywhere today. The fact that there is this confusion is another reason why this topic should exist as a standalone article.--Prisencolin (talk) 15:18, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- FYI, that's wikilawyering for you to say that. You know full and well there's not a controversy between editors about the redirect target (otherwise it would have been discussed), and saying that means the article should be kept is ridiculous. You're wikilawyering. Don't do that. Red Phoenix talk 02:36, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Red Phoenix: That might be true if it weren't for the fact that another editor just brought this notion up. Regardless look at the suggestions for redirect being brought up here. Some are saying League of Legends, other Legends of Runeterra, yet others don't even specify which. For a third-party to this discussion it's not clear which it would be. The fact that you threw some policy at me instead of addressing this issue directly confirms this.--Prisencolin (talk) 03:34, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- I told you to stop wikilawyering and you did it again. No wonder no one is taking you seriously here. You refuse to listen. Honestly, I see no point in trying to reason with you further. Don't ping me again - I don't want to hear more of you repeating the same argument and trying to lawyer your way into getting this article kept. Red Phoenix talk 03:55, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- Okay, if you encounter one of best arguments yet and don’t know how to reply so you just throw some shade and link to some discussion guidelines that’s a sign that this AFD is procedurally flawed. Anyways if you want to bow out without addressing the existence of the scholarly articles as a source, I’ll just reiterate that’s they’re here.-—Prisencolin (talk) 06:18, 18 July 2020 (UTC)

- You have repeatedly suggested that the editors involved in these discussions directly have a bias against the game. There's no way you can prove that, and it's a borderline personal attack against those editors. Stop it. The consensus hear is pretty clear and it's time you started to hear it. Where the redirect ultimately lands is irrelevant, in that the AFD has a clear consensus the topic is not notable. That editors haven't focused on the aspect of the redirect target does not indicate any confusion and certainly doesn't suggest a need for a standalone topic. -- ferret (talk) 15:24, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- I can't say for anyone here on an individual level but it's clear that League of Legends is disliked in certain circles. Nothing personal is meant, but systematic bias is real and I'm just pointing it out. This is not a WP:DEMOCRACY, no amount of votes can change the fact that a redirect one way or the other is a bad idea or that there's enough coverage to justify a standalone article.--Prisencolin (talk) 16:09, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- Your accusation here is ludicrous. Just because a bias exists out there in the world doesn’t mean it exists here in this discussion with these participants. There’s no evidence anyone here is making comments out of their distaste for the subject. Unless you can back up what you say, stop casting WP:ASPERSIONS.

Comment by nominator I would like to reiterate why I nominated this article for deletion:
- This article has too many primary sources, although PCGamer.com may be somewhat reliable, it is too close to the subject given its industry to solidiy notability. Again, PCGamer.com is an industry source, therefore it is a primary source. We cannot determine the notablity of the article just with that source.
- Secondly, most of these sources mostly mention the developer of the game or the game itself. These do not determine notability.
- Even with the poor refs put aside, this article is full of Gamecruft. Anyone reasonable enough would use the WP:TNT.
Best, P,TO 19104 (talk) (contribs) 21:05, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- @P,TO 19104: Thank you for coming back to comment on this discussion, but I did want to address the concerns you have.
- PC Gamer would not be considered a primary source because it is independent of the game League of Legends, it's developers and publishers Riot Games and Tencent and the source itself has been determined to be a reliable source for video game articles as per WP:VGRS. It is only one of the dozens of other reliable sources such as Verge, Kotaku, Polygon, IGN, and the academic paper "Game, Narrative and Storyworld in league of legends" published in the journal: The Play Versus Story Divide in Game Studies: Critical Essays.
- I don't understand what you mean. Wouldn't the game being mentioned in sources indicate that the topic is notable and not the other way around?
- In-game information is presented in a WP:PRECISE manner, conforming to MOS:VG to the best degree.--Prisencolin (talk) 23:17, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
- Strong Keep Runeterra features in multiple media, with a ton more upcoming [6]. Discussion of the shared universe of Runeterra is in RS. It not only stands alone based on the RS, but even if you wanted to redirect it there would be no good redirect and a disambig would be the best you could hope for. Jerod Lycett (talk) 00:30, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- There were at least two redirects posed. Either would be acceptable. Red Phoenix talk 03:55, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect or merge. It’s pretty rare that “fictional video game settings” need their own article. Some info is good. Other is cruft. But there’s not enough to warrant its own article. (Perhaps move some of the content to wikia or something?) Sergecross73 msg me 01:52, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Leaving out Prisencolin's embarassing attempts to WP:BLUDGEON the discussion with weird, nonsensical allegations, the article boils down to passing mentions in other sources and nothing that constitutes notability. Give me significant coverage, not unrelated comments mentioned in articles that don't actually pertain to the topic. What about Runeterra is so important and noteworthy that it must be covered in its own article? This is easily something that can be summarized in League of Legends, and not something that needs its own page. Namcokid47 (Contribs) 02:00, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment would anyone object to a requested move of this article? I think the article title creates a critical misunderstanding when it comes to assessing significant coverage of this topic in sources.--Prisencolin (talk) 03:16, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- Move to where? The name appears accurate to me as it covers the fictional shared universe of multiple media. Jerod Lycett (talk) 03:38, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- Probably League of Legends lore or League of Legend universe, whatever is more WP:COMMONNAME. The issue is when you have an article like this (Marçal Mora Cantallops; Miguel ÁNgel Sicilia (November 2016). "Motivations to read and learn in videogame lore: the case of league of legends". TEEM '16: Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Technological Ecosystems for Enhancing Multiculturality: Pages 585–591.) which discuss the world of Runeterra, but don't mention it in the title, other editors are inclined to thing "Runeterra" is only mentioned in passing.--Prisencolin (talk) 03:46, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- Note: Although we've never met, Prisencolin and I became Facebook friends in 2017 because of shared, non-Wikipedia interests, which we then briefly chatted about. I was messaged about this AfD on Facebook Messenger and for general advice on the situation. Except possibly for being done off-wiki – maybe because of my reduced editing – it was otherwise compliant with WP:CANVASS. I brought 2016 League of Legends World Championship to Good Article status and frequently participated in these kinds of discussions. I have recommended that Prisencolin take a step back from this AfD.
- Keep. WP:HEYMANN is probably triggered by a major revamp of the article that excised the most problematic, fancrufty elements and refocused it on a real-world perspective. The article has multiple sources listed at WP:VG/RS that discuss League lore in an out-of-universe fashion (e.g. Gangplank's death, reception, etc.). There's also non-video game focused sources such as academic articles that are primarily focused on the lore (e.g. [7]) and the Washington Post. Per WP:SIGCOV, this is sufficient, since these sources go beyond trivial mentions, even if the League universe is not always the main topic of the sources. The length of the article and Runeterra's existence in multiple notable works, including non-Riot properties such as D&D, means it would be hard to upmerge into the already not-short League article and is better as a spin-off. The drama surrounding this AfD isn't good, but based on the sources available, the article should be kept on the merits per WP:NEXIST so it can be improved. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 08:20, 18 July 2020 (UTC)

That hasn't really be countered by the keep arguments so the delete case seems more policy based Spartaz Humbug! 21:28, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

The sourcing for this former campus paper is so piss-poor that I do not believe in its notability. There's a few newspaper articles from over thirty years ago that mention it because of a little dust-up at the time, and there's a few mentions in more recent publications. But this doesn't add up to notability by our standards, if we want to be serious encyclopedia: a sentence and a half here, a half sentence about a cartoon here, an interview with an editor here. Take those three sources (the rest is all primary stuff), and you have "The California Review is a conservative student paper that once ran a cartoon". Drmies (talk) 20:51, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete or merge to University of California, San Diego. It doesn't seem notable enough for an article it's own, but it might worth a mention in the University of California article due to the dust-up. --Adamant1 (talk) 21:50, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep: I added a newspaper article by the Christian Science Monitor in 1983: "Conservative papers emerge on college campuses". The syndicated article says that the California Review was part of a wave of conservative college newspapers founded in 1982 and 1983, and uses California Review as the lead example. I also added an article syndicated by the Copley News Service, "Campus right irks lefties", talking specifically about the first issue of the paper. The Review was shut down in 1983 after making a rape joke, and they went to federal court to force the university to continue their funding. This is much more than "a little dust-up". The paper has received national press attention on a number of occasions, from their very first issue. — Toughpigs (talk) 23:39, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- Editing then Archive based on their website it seems the current version is not pushing content as often and there appears to be a second site tied to a former editor. The page is obviously in need of an update since I was requested to work on it when the paper was revived. And if you look in the edit history they allegedly lost at least one editor, something I can attest to personally, which has not been reported by them indicating some kind of issue. Bgrus22 (talk) 02:44, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Without a demonstrated link between the 2 (or is it 3?) publications, and with the current versions clearly not notable, it comes down to whether the original California Review deserves encyclopedic coverage. Hm let's see. It published for less than two years. It was a campus giveaway. Its initial $6K funding came from the Institute for Educational Affairs; there was nothing organic or spontaneous about that "wave of conservative college newspapers." The California Review's claim to fame was a series of odious, "controversial" racist and gay-bashing remarks, leading up to a climax in which they called the defendants of the Cheryl Araujo case "six brave men". Four of those six were convicted of aggravated rape. The federal suit was over $4050 in university funding & office space. They received the office space. I see no journalistic, academic or legal notability. --Lockley (talk) 01:10, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
- ...Lockley, it sounds like you know more about the story than is currently in the article. In the sources I reviewed yesterday, I didn't see anything about the Institute for Educational Affairs, Cheryl Araujo or the $4050, so apparently you know about that from other sources that aren't currently here. I'd like to know where you got the information. I think if you're this familiar with a 35-year-old dispute about a student paper, then it's got to be notable enough to have attracted your attention. There may not be any journalistic, academic or legal merit, but I think there's notability. — Toughpigs (talk) 03:33, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
- Hello @Toughpigs:. You'll find a reference to the Institute for Educational Affairs in the article. Beyond that, I look stuff up the same as you! newspapers.com! For example, the L.A. Times of June 10, 1983 had primary coverage I'm surprised you missed. It said, "... The latest (California Review) edition called those who participated in a barroom gang rape in Massachusetts 'six brave men' and called the rape itself a victory for the sexual liberation movement." So, it wasn't a single "rape joke" that shut the paper, as you said above. What shut the paper was a cruel attack on rape victim Cheryl Araujo, the last straw in a pattern of grossly offensive material. All that said, it's the tiny stakes that make this non-notable. As to your claim that whatever attracts my eye must be notable and therefore belongs in wikipedia (...laughing), that's a much funnier joke. --Lockley (talk) 05:51, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
- Well, I figured that you must have known about it personally somehow, because the only other explanation would be that you went looking for press coverage, and you found even more than I did, and yet you still think it's not notable, which wouldn't make any sense. — Toughpigs (talk) 07:20, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete: Per Nom, alternate merge to UCSD for historical purposes: Fails WP:NORG. A defunct campus newspaper that was active for a couple of years. The use of primary sources, especially multiple listings of the same source, DO NOT advance notability. This is even more of an issue when the sources are just articles showing the paper existed. I do not see that questioned but the notability for a stand-alone article. The scant non-primary sources that are more about certain incidences other than the paper do not tip the scale. -- Otr500 (talk) 18:24, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete has much to say about itself, but per WP:SPS that can only be given limited weight when unaccompanied by a secondary source; the actual amount of third-party, independent sourcing is low, and too low to pass WP:BASIC. ——Serial 15:50, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

A recently expanded redirect about the capital township of the target district, and the author is insisting on keeping the article. Notability is dubious and it currently contains no information that isn't at the target article. Seems to be part of a campaign to mass create stubs for the capital townships of every district, around Hanoi, at least. Lithopsian (talk) 20:39, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- Withdrawn by nominator. My proposal appears to have been flawed, or at least poorly expressed. Also, 30ChuaPhaiLaTet has been blocked as a sock and most edits have been rolled back, so discussing them further seems pointless. Lithopsian (talk) 13:56, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
- Lithopsian Some other provinces, like Bac Giang Province, Bac Lieu Province, ... have stubs about every small communes and villages. Just look at these, Template:Bac Giang Province, Template:Bac Lieu Province. So why can't I create one? Those created stubs are about every single villages, and they also had a single line simply stating that it is a village of the district (yet they have been existing for 10 years now). Meanwhile I'm only creating stubs about the district capitals (which is obviously more notable). If you keep insisting on deleting mine, then you should also consider deleting every articles in those templates that I listed 30ChuaPhaiLaTet (talk) 20:46, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Similar discussions are underway for similar articles "VKTM" which Inna over at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/VKTM and "Sober (Inna song)" over at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sober (Inna song). Firstly, it's important to note that the article should not be classified as a WP:GA - it fails on on criteria 2 (verifiable - independent sources) and 2 (broad in coverage per Wikipedia:Good_article_criteria#The_six_good_article_criteria. GA status aside, when you exclude the YouTube and iTunes sources, it hasn't received extensive coverage and is really a WP:STUB. While there are some fleeting mentions from independent sources, there isn't enough to warrant growth beyond a stub. There are some guidelines on stubs at WP:NSONG which say "articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album". This falls into that category too. The song just isn't notable enough for its own article - coverage is limited and the skeleton of the article is made up of commercial or non-independent sources. ≫ (Lil-Unique1) -{ Talk }- 19:48, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Oaktree b (talk) 02:07, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect to Alexandra Stan. In response to the above comment, per WP:NSONG, chart placement may be an indication of notability, but notability is best demonstrated through significant coverage in third-party, reliable sources. Whether or not Stan s a one-hit wonder or if this song somehow becomes an international hit is not relevant to this discussion.

- Azuredivay, At least two of those are questionable sources. No idea on the first source - not much information about the publisher, but nothing immediately jumped out as a vanity press. Nothing in google books, so I'm hoping you've got a copy of the book and could given some information about the coverage of Surya Roshni Limited. Just saying the source helps notability and nothing else doesn't give much information. The second is a self-published investment magazine from an investment advisory company. It could be a short blurb, could be something long, but it's absolutely self-published so questionable on helping notability, at best. The third is from a list of investments from various steel companies in developing economies. There are multiple mentions of the company, but it's a short blurb about the exact same investment, in english and in french. At best this would support that in 2010 they started a memoradum of understanding. That's it. Not helpful for notability. Ravensfire (talk) 23:51, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

This monster wargame is not notable. Few sources exist beyond BoardGameGeek, ConSimWorld, and the publisher's site, and it's not particularly well-known on BGG. Could be redirected to its ancestor Rise and Decline of the Third Reich. Ungulates (talk) 23:46, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
- I grant you it's a niche interest, but lots of board wargames have articles with similar number of page views (average about 10-20 per day). Nobody's forcing anybody to read it, and it would be a pity to throw it away. It must be one of the most detailed simulations of WW2 ever designed. The ancestor game is certainly notable and has even been referenced in a published novel. But there are several descendant games and several spin offs - too much to put in one article, and perfectly appropriate for a family of articles.Paulturtle (talk) 10:12, 1 July 2020 (UTC) It was reprinted on GMT's P500 (ie. at least 500 pre-orders needed to reprint) a couple of years ago, so people are still buying it.Paulturtle (talk) 10:16, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- No one's being forced to read it, but WP:NOTE is pretty clear that if a topic can't be shown to be notable it shouldn't have a Wikipedia page. If the very extensive discussion of mechanics and strategy is worth saving, it should be moved to Wikibooks or a another place where it would be appropriate. Ungulates (talk) 21:44, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not entirely sure that's true any more. Military History articles, for example, permit and indeed encourage the writing of articles on each and every unit above a certain size or officer above a certain rank, even though there is little in the way of independent third party coverage - they are simply deemed to be notable within the context of the larger topic. I doubt that's the only area of interest which has started to go down this route over the years. As for articles on historically accurate board wargames, few of them have independent sources beyond Boardgamegeek and Consimworld - some of the older, classic games have lists of articles about them in long-defunct magazines but that's about it. Wikipedia does have vast numbers of articles about obscure albums and TV programmes and computer games which got tagged for questionable notability and then left alone.Paulturtle (talk) 02:52, 2 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete --and not softly (as it fails WP:NSOFT): Also fails WP:GNG and does not come close to fulfilling any requirements found in the Five pillars. This is a single primary sourced article. The source contains approximately 21 lines of prose and the article contains "hundreds". We could keep this filed as an example of original research. The subject also fails the criteria (#2) of the WikiProject. If an editor wishes to revive the article with reliable sources it is not hard to request a REFUND but current policies and guidelines do indicate that certain criteria is not optional. -- Otr500 (talk) 19:15, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- The above editor is perfectly entitled to his opinion that the article should be thrown away. However, he's not entitled to try to give his opinion a veneer of "authority" by misquoting Wikipedia policies. Specifically:
- It's not entirely clear what policies about computer software articles have got to do with anything, although I suppose analogies could be made.
- “does not come close to fulfilling any requirements found in the Five pillars”. Patent nonsense. The five “pillars” are that Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, consists of free content, is written from a neutral point of view, that editors should be civil to one another, and that it has no firm rules. I don’t see how it falls short of any of that.
- It’s not “original research” – it is a factual description of the game, similar to the plot summary of a film. The source is self-evident and available for anybody to purchase and verify if they wish. To coin a phrase, we could keep the above comment filed as a failure to understand what “original research” is. The rule against Original Research is there to stop crackpots from posting their own pet theories in “serious” articles, not to stop people from posting obvious factual descriptions of things that are self-evident.
- “fails the criteria (#2) of the WikiProject”. Nope again. Those criteria are to refine the style guidelines, to ensure NPOV and NOR (discussed in previous bullet point), to create a notability guide (I don’t see any evidence that this has been done), and to ensure that notable topics are covered. Again, I don’t see that any of that is being breached.
- As for the "21 line source", the main “source” for the article is the game’s hefty rules & reference manuals, which from memory run to several hundred pages (they used to available online at one point on the game’s website, along with other essays and commentaries about aspects of the game, but I’ve no idea if they still are). That is considerably more than the length of the article as it currently stands.

- Whilst I'm here, I note that Dungeons & Dragons, a game I haven't played since the early 1980s, has a family of articles, some of which go into quite esoteric detail about various versions of the game and expansion kits. Efforts have been made in places to provide "references", but many of these are simply "circular" references to guides produced by enthusiasts, rather than wholly objective third-party commentators. Obviously it's more widely-played than the Third Reich system and its descendants.Paulturtle (talk) 23:07, 18 July 2020 (UTC)
- I don't see why you view this as some kind of personal affront, but I'd like you stop doing that. With regard to some of the claims that you have made: Obviously extensive discussion of strategy and mechanics with no external references is original research. Obviously. The game's manual, while no doubt an authoritative source on the mechanics of the game itself, is of no use for establishing the notability of the game. Wikipedia policies designated as official policies are not optional. I am not, of course, saying that this game is bad or shouldn't be discussed; I am saying that it does not meet the criteria for a Wikipedia page. Ungulates (talk) 04:01, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
- Just because somebody does not agree with you, or, worse, thinks that you are wrong, does not mean that they are making “claims” or that they are taking “personal affront”. And I’m certainly not going to stop responding to somebody who posts a bombastic comment full of references to Wikipedia “policies” which he clearly hasn’t understood.
- The policy against Original Research is laid down clearly, in plain English, for anybody to read in the opening paragraphs of the article on that policy. It means that information has to be verifiable to reliable published sources, even if it is not directly cited, and does not state conclusions that are not obvious from those sources. Put two sources together and present a conclusion deduced solely by the editor in question and it becomes “synth”. The plot section of a film article is not “original research” because the source is self-evident: watch the film. A description of the mechanics of the game is verifiable from the hefty rules manuals of the game. “Obviously”.
- I’ve done quite a lot of serious article-writing over the years, although less so lately. OR is hard to define but my God you recognise it when you come across it – somebody relatively new to a controversial subject and overconfident in his abilities, flicks through a few books, sometimes (but not always) published compilations of primary sources, and thinks he has discovered that the historians who aren’t telling him what he wants to hear are “wrong”. There’s not much you can do other than say “you need to read and learn more” and hope he has the maturity not to, as the saying goes, “take personal affront”.
- You are quite right that the game’s extensive rulebooks are not in themselves proof of notability, but that is a separate matter. In reality very few Wikipedia policies are completely hard and fast, other than that you can’t libel living people. I’ve already drawn your attention to articles about military hardware and senior officers, where rules about notability are interpreted a lot more loosely (to put it mildly). Almost very objection you’ve raised could be raised against the families of articles devoted to well-known games like chess or poker, which are presumably read by people who enjoy those games or want to learn them. Of course those games are clearly and demonstrably notable, but for the moment I’m talking about the nature and content of the articles themselves.
- The editor above claimed, wrongly as far as I can see, that the article is in breach of the game project’s rules about “notability”. In fact the section to which he posted a link says that it is an ongoing aspiration of that project to come up with a policy on notability. They don’t appear to have actually done so. Regards, Paulturtle (talk) 11:05, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

There is no indication of notability in this article. It is all about whom she married and to whom she gave birth. Wikipedia is not a genealogy database, however. This person does not appear to have been covered extensively by reliable sources. Surtsicna (talk) 18:06, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete nothing in the article demonstrates notability beyond being born into aristocracy. JoelleJay (talk) 19:59, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
- Strong Keep: is the mother of the would-be Kaiser – i.e. head of the Hohenzollern family - Germany's former Imperial family. Her son has mounted no less than 120 legal cases against the press or reporters with regard to reporting accuracy.[18] So this would surely assist the English journos and others in getting biographical details right, and possibly avoiding lawyers when writing about Germany's royal family. Aside from that, the family retain a prominent national position due to historical legacies. They feature in the press: not just constantly in the tabloid press, but in respectable national press because of reparations cases. So it's useful to know, whatever one's political shading, who is who. A Google News search for "Donata Castell Rüdenhausen" brings 37 articles. HOWEVER, her Wiki article needs to be retitled with her Christian name before the term 'Countess' – as while it is what she would have been commonly called, it is not legally accurate. (Titles in Germany were abolished after WWI, but royals and aristocrats were permitted to incorporate them as names, which they have done.) ClearBreeze (talk) 12:23, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
- In the real world notability is commonly inherited, and an encyclopedia that aims to be comprehensive should reflect that. Informationally useful articles on minor royals and aristocrats are being deleted due to a cancel culture stemming from personal politics and/or personal resentment. The embittered individuals persisting in it, and for no other reasons, need to look at their own lives. It needs to be strongly resisted as it's utterly corrosive to Wikipedia. It's book burning. You want to do good? Try editing a Marcos family article, or the wildly-laudatory and distorted articles of other figures that are protected by Wiki gangs. Targeting the articles of harmless aristoeuros is really lame. ClearBreeze (talk) 11:40, 16 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete: No evidence of notability via WP:GNG or otherwise. Coverage consists solely of minor mentions from genealogy sites. Wikipedia is also explicitly not for recording genealogical information. — MarkH21talk 12:50, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete: Nothing in the article indicates notability. I attempted a Google News search as suggested by ClearBreeze (incidentally, now indefinitely blocked) and it did not produce anything (but I admit to not being certain I did it correctly). Supposing, hypothetically, that sources did exist somewhere that indicate notability, the current article would still be a case for WP:TNT: all of the content is either genealogical database cruft or utterly trivial padding ("She was raised Lutheran" um ok great). (Also, of course, there's the utterly ridiculous idea that a person born in 1950 held beginning in 1975 the title "Princess of Prussia".) --JBL (talk) 01:18, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - Discounting the obvious non-notability generating sources (the patents, profile pages, etc), what's left are a bunch of press releases, and some coverage from the school paper of the high school that he attended, and then spoke at once. The sources are also a bit misleading, as it seems that in at least one case, the same press release is being used as two separate sources as they were published on multiple sites, to bloat the reflist. Note that there is another James D. Marks, a M.D. Ph.D., who appears to be considerably more notable than this individual, and pretty much all actual results in reliable sources are actually on the doctor. There were some arguments in the prior AFD that the website he founded and ran until its sale is notable, and thus this individual is as well. However, not only does this run counter to WP:NOTINHERITED, but I'm not finding a whole lot of evidence that the website would pass the WP:GNG itself, anyway.

It clearly fails the general notability guidelines - the article even lists the "independent outlet" which reports on it to be one of the organization's own twitter accounts! Anecdotally, I've never heard of it and I live in New England - while this is obviously not a reason to delete an article, it is an example of the fact that there isn't even coverage or knowledge of the organization at the local level!

- Delete - I think someone chose to create this article because the DJ got a rush of significant media coverage for a few days back in May, including highly reliable stories from Reuters, Rolling Stone India, and several others. In short, he used to be a doctor but quit that job to go into music, and this year he quit his music career and went back to medicine to help fight the pandemic. I find this to be a very noble gesture, but in Wikipedia terms it does not bestow enough notability per WP:BLP1E. Meanwhile, his music career is totally non-notable on its own terms, with no reliable and significant coverage outside of the recent noble story, and he is only ever mentioned in relation to the rapper that he backs up. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 22:17, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

- Delete This is a total WP:FANCRUFT. Not to mention the fact that it’s incredibly long, probably too long for a normal reader. Eternal Shadow Talk 15:49, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
He is going to be the top scorer ever in the world's most popular sport and his personal article is one of the most popular regarding public figures, IMO this list is relevant for every fan of football (which includes a lot of people). This definitely doesn't qualify as WP:FANCRUFT. There is already a long list of his international goals, I don't really see the problem with this one. Maybe I can split the main list into years/seasons. I read the WP:NOTSTATS text and this list doesn't check any of the boxes. The context is clear and this article works as a separate article to further explain the stats presented in Cristiano Ronaldo and List of career achievements by Cristiano Ronaldo. GaiusAD (talk) 15:59, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

- Strong keep I would argue that this should be easily acceptable for players with over 500 career goals to have a full list not to mention that it will clearly get a lot of people looking for it. A List of senior career goals scored by Pelé would also be perfectly reasonable. This has had a tremendous amount of work go into it and is valuable and I'm sure it will get a lot of traffic long term.

- Delete – A list of every goal he's ever scored? There's probably some merit to the argument that the sheer numbers make it a notable topic, but by the same token, those sheer numbers make such a list truly unwieldy. I agree with those above who have cited WP:FANCRUFT, and I would also probably throw in WP:LISTCRUFT. Let's leave this sort of thing to stats aggregators like Transfermarkt. – PeeJay 10:50, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete – per above, it's just too much. International goals are ok but that's it. Kante4 (talk) 13:40, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep The subject is notable enough – every goal is described in detail on the sporting pages. The list is accessible, since it is in date sequence, and gives the sort of information his fans are likely to find interesting and useful in sorting out pub arguments, the primary purpose of Wikipedia. It could use reformatting though so it look better on a phone. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:44, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
The delete voters are all acting as if this is just any old footballer and pure fan cruft. But whenever I turn on the football they're always talking about Ronaldo and Messi and their extraordinary goal record and Pele is still regularly discussed. The goals they scored and their abilities dominate conversations in world football, this would get thousands of views a day. If it was a list of matches Federer had won in tennis it would be comparable. It makes perfect sense to document the top achievers in any sport in such detail.† Encyclopædius 19:56, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
- Weak Delete – per WP:NOTSTATS and WP:FANCRUFT. As Kante4 stated above I am ok with international goals having article for record goalscorers as those games (and goals) happen less frequently and tend to gather more attention that regular club league or cup games, which tend to happen once a week if not more. Given that Ronaldo averages about a goal a game, that means that this article would have to be updated around once a week if not more. With hundreds if not thousands of entries, this would become difficult to monitor very quickly, and its encyclopedic value would be questionable. Maybe there is a way to merge some of this information to another article, but I haven't thought of a way yet. Inter&anthro (talk) 03:51, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
I believe that tis article should be removed from Wikipedia. There is a lack of notability and his presence appears to be quite non-encyclopaedic. Most of the links have been taken from his own blog, whilst his presence in media is extremely limited. A few comment sections on a number of online sources is also not enough for notability. The person who created this added several links to a bunch of online pages, such as IMDB(!) - this person is just a novelist. Finally there is another mention of a "professorship"(what a claim!) at the Hellenic Open University. After some googling I only found that he is a teaching assistant - definitely not a professor.

Dear Kj cheetham, thanks for your message. I am a neophyte on Wikipedia so the links above definitely prove useful to clarify some mechanisms at its core. I started to make contributions to some wiki pages because they contained an avalanche of wrong scientific information. I was surprised though to see that my edits were removed by random users (Spellsgood and Mvolz just to mention a few). Hence, as one of (the very few) academics working on a niche domain of phylogenetics, I decided to create first a wiki page to specify who I am and on which topic I work for, and then I modified again the above mentioned wiki pages. The wiki page Daniele Catanzaro was however marked as COI by Mvolz and Spellsgood and from there degenerated up to reaching the ridiculous “self-promoting” statement. Under this condition I do not feel like contributing anymore.

The sole reason for this AFD discussion is its longevity as an article - it was created in 2009. The text of this article asserts "international media network founded ... in 1994", "publishes five guides throughout the year, The Student Guide, Music & Fashion Guide, The Pink Guide, The Gap Travel Guide & The Festival Guide, in addition to monthly magazines that are handed out free across the UK, USA & Bangladesh". If those assertions were plausible, this purported media network established in 1994 would have at the very least some internet coverage. WP:BEFORE done, and this is manifestly not the case.

- Delete - I found one short review in The Chesterton Review here. However, the coverage is batched together in a mass review of a number of other books on Tolkien, and there is only one paragraph discussing this particular book. The "review" in a forum post that the nom found is ineligible for notability, of course, so this short blurb alone is not sufficient to pass the WP:GNG or WP:NBOOK. A redirect to David Day (Canadian writer), as suggested, is also a possibility, but a quick look at his article makes me question if he, himself, would pass the WP:GNG, so I don't see that as wholly necessary.

This would perhaps be better as a soft redirect to Wiktionary than an article here. It has some mentions as a term, but no notability. Boleyn (talk) 07:38, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Boundary disputes are vexatious (example) so this would be best left as it is for further improvement per our policies WP:IMPERFECT and WP:PRESERVE.

- Redirect to Boundary (real estate). This is too narrow of a topic for a single article (it's a tree that marks a boundary for goodness sake), but it is part of the more general concept of real estate boundaries and could be put in proper context there. That article itself is a bit thin and could use some beefing up, so it's a perfect match. There are also currently no secondary sources in this article, so even a merge would be inappropriate unless some were added. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 13:26, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect to Boundary (real estate) per Deacon Vorbis. As mentioned above, this is far to narrow of a topic to justify an article separate from the main article on the broad topic of real estate boundaries. The term comes up in sources here and there, but the results are little more than defining what it means. While I do agree that there is no real usable info currently in the article for a merge (the only sources are just examples of times the phrase was used in documents), we do need to actually add a line mentioning and defining it at the main Boundary (real estate) article, as it is not currently mentioned there. Rorshacma (talk) 14:18, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
- Merge to Boundary (real estate). I would agree that the need of a stand-alone article seems weak, but the current boundary article is really a stub and doesn't say anything about line trees or for that matter anything else about how said boundaries are determined, so just redirecting is not the way to go.

I fail to see what's notable about this company. The article doesn't cite any sources, nothing comes up about in a before that would pass WP:CORP, and it's not even mentioned in the Coldwell Banker.

- Delete: Perhaps this is more commonly known as CBE New Homes. Searches find routine listings plus this rather advertorial piece from Cairo Scene in 2016. I don't see enough to establish specific notability. The Coldwell Banker article says they have "approximately 3,000 offices in 49 countries and territories"; merging material on this one would seen WP:UNDUE. AllyD (talk) 15:14, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

Extremely trivial article about a proposed train station that was never built. There's only a few references about it that all seem to be primary. I couldn't find anything else on it in a before that would pass WP:GNG either. I'd say this also qualifies as WP:TOSOON, but I don't think that works if the project was canceled. So, I'm basing this mainly on lack of notability.
- Merge to Northern Link (MTR), the line it is/was to be on (which appears to be significantly delayed but not cancelled) from where it can easily be split out again if it is ever built.

Seemingly non-notable, small local hospital. There are sources out there about it and cited in the article, but they all seem to contain extremely trivial information like that they sponsored a local boy scouts group so they could wrap presents for Christmas.

- I'm not sure coverage for a single thing, a missionary trip which is extremely trivial IMO, by a few regional news sources really does it. Usually there has to at least be some national coverage due to the whole "broad audience" thing that Wikipedia is intended for and the place has to be notable for more then one event to. Otherwise, we are just acting as a news source. --Adamant1 (talk) 19:09, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

- It's pretty you don't know anything about the notability guidelines. It's fine to mention their mission work in the article, but them doing mission work on doesn't help to establish notability on it's own and I never claimed otherwise. Your free to add more information to the article, but if your going to use it as an impetus to vote keep it should follow WP:NCORP. Which judging by what I've seen of your edits so far you don't seem to care about following. --Adamant1 (talk) 20:20, 13 July 2020 (UTC)
- This article seems to have as many references as most hospital articles. Rathfelder (talk) 08:18, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

- Its been there for 115 years. It would be very surprising if there were not a lot more coverage over the years. The question is not can we see coverage on Google. Rathfelder (talk) 08:32, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
- BTW, do you happen to know where there was a discussion/agreement about the number of beds a hospital has and it's notability? A couple of people have said that hospitals over 500 beds are notable, but I can't find anything about it anywhere. --Adamant1 (talk) 09:34, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
- I'm not aware of any policy like that, but my assumption is that big hospitals generally are notable, and 500 beds is a reasonable size. Rathfelder (talk) 21:39, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep A large hospital in Glendale. >500 beds is the size of a typical teaching hospital so really quite big (Maybe ~20 wards), has a long history and there is a lot of coverage both under this new name and the old name. Beyond the ongoing coverage in the LA times, there is also some coverage in the national media (NYT etc) Seems to be lot of scope for expansion. PainProf (talk) 00:02, 18 July 2020 (UTC)

The result was redirect to 2020 Green Party of Canada leadership election. NPOL sets a standard that can seem a bit higher than GNG but that reflects the fact that campaigns are often the subject rather than the individual. Over the years, the community has supported the case that multiple unsuccessful candidates either have to win something or we cover them in the campaigns. Once all these arguments were aired and the article.relisted there was no disagreement with this argument. Spartaz Humbug! 21:41, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

WP:BLP, referenced entirely to primary sources with no evidence of reliable source coverage shown at all, of a person notable only as an unsuccessful candidate for political office. As always, this is not grounds for a Wikipedia article in and of itself -- but this article demonstrates neither that he had any preexisting notability for other reasons independently of the candidacies, nor a credible reason why his candidacies could be considered more significant than other people's candidacies. And while there is a "this article may be expanded with text translated from the corresponding article in French" tag at the top, the French article is just a very short stub with nothing to actually translate that isn't already here and citing no sources at all, which means it's deletion bait over there as well.

- Keep - achieves bare notability between some recent coverage of a controversial policy he proposed to combat racism, and significant WP:ABOUTSELF info that can be used to build the article into something more than just the campaign. I think a very narrow GNG pass is in effect here. NPOL is for politicians who fail to meet GNG, not some super extra special guideline that also has to be met. Even if that weren't the case, I don't care, because in that case it's clearly a rule detrimental to building the encyclopedia and should be ignored. People expect Wikipedia to contain information about political candidates. Wikipedia seeks to be the biggest repository of free information in the world, and people have come to rely on it; it's often hard to find info about candidates, and most people would reasonably expect candidates for office to have articles. He's also run for god knows how many elections, making him a perennial candidate which can in itself create notability in certain cases. This is also a pointy nomination (see here, CTRL+F "WP:WAX") and should be speedy closed for that reason alone. −−− Cactus Jack 🌵 05:34, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- NPOL is not "for politicians who fail to meet GNG". We don't always do a very good job of actually finding and using all the sources necessary to write a substantive article that looks like the person passes GNG, but that's not the same thing as the person actually failing GNG — NPOL-passing politicians always pass GNG, and we just aren't always on the ball about doing the work to make their articles good. That's a "lazy Wikipedians" problem, not a "the people don't pass GNG in the first place" problem.
- And a brief blip of coverage in the context of announcing a policy proposal during a leadership race just makes hima a WP:BLP1E, not a person who has attained permanent notability yet. We are WP:NOTNEWS: we consider the enduring notability of potential article topics, not just their temporary newsiness: our job here is to look past the daily news and sort out what information is still going to matter in 2030, not just to indiscriminately keep an article about everybody whose name happens to have shown up in the daily news cycle one day.
- And also, WP:WAX is not WP:POINT. There's nothing disruptive about responding to a WAX-based argument by listing the named WAX article for a deletion discussion — WAX literally says that that's one of the standard responses that people should expect to a WAX-based argument. Bearcat (talk) 06:22, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:GNG worse than most, as the only potentially qualifying coverage is the fact there was a documentary film made about one of his campaigns - the review of the film in the article focuses solely on the filmmaker, and not on Perceval-Maxwell. The rest of the article is his CV, a couple Facebook posts, routine election results, a National Post article about a Green Party debate, and a press release which doesn't even mention him. The French language article has zero references at all and is unhelpful. On top of WP:PROMO concerns related to the fact he's a current candidate, which was the reason why this article was created, this is a clear delete. I also want to address a point made above - there is no way at all this is a pointy nomination, as Bearcat generally does an excellent job at bringing articles that need AfD review to our attention and has for a long time. That accusation must be retracted. SportingFlyer T·C 06:30, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- I will not retract it, because it is correct. In fact I will double down. Bearcat's crusade against politician articles is one of the worst things I've seen at AfD. He gleefully misuses policy, lawyers it to mean the opposite of what it plainly says, and bludgeons the process with his walls of text of randomly italicized words and meaningless blather. Wikipedia would be far better off if he were topic banned from AfD, or even desysopped or sitebanned entirely. I'm done here. I'm not going to waste my time on a failed encyclopedia run by deletionist zealots like him. −−− Cactus Jack 🌵 06:44, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep and Topic Ban User:Bearcat from AFD nominations - It's a very pointy nomination,
as it's clearly vengeance for another editor pointing out the nominator's lack of competence in the Annamie Paul AFD,and a quick WP:BEFORE shows lots of other articles relating to this environmentalist's similar activities, such as his hemp business, and his famous car that ran on discarded deep-fryer oil from fast-food restaurants (even I remember that one - and a good "Do you know" candidate). I've added several more references to the article, some routine, but some meet GNG, such as the 2005 Montreal Gazette article, the 2009 car articles, the 2008 piece on his hemp business (did User:SportingFlyer see these?) The nominator really should withdraw this nomination. This nomination meets the speedy keep criteria 2 (created for disruption). Though it's also clear that the mandatory BEFORE checks were not done.

- I looked at the article as it stood at 06:30 and you updated it with a single new article afterwards, which isn't really significant coverage in my book as it was a late 2000s blog post. I do not think the mention that his car runs on cooking oil is enough to make him notable or is considered a separate "event" considering a quick search shows his notability stems mostly from a single documentary with one review or the fact he's standing to be the leader of the party, which is a candidacy. The claim for WP:GNG is exceptionally weak even for candidates, who we expect to receive WP:GNG and that's why we've carved out the exception. You also need to consider your response. A topic ban for Bearcat would be absolutely ridiculous. This was a very legitimate nomination. SportingFlyer T·C 08:12, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- Fair enough - I'm not sure when you looked at it. There's three articles referencing the car ... and I certainly remember seeing reports about it, there was significant media coverage of him and the car at the time. There's significant coverage about his Hemp business. And there's significant national coverage about his candidacy for leadership a major federal party ... it's not like he's running for Senator in Red Neck, East Dakota, and just retired as a schoolteacher with no profile. My gosh ... if we applied this depth of GNG to sportsplayers, they'd be about five per league. Nfitz (talk) 08:27, 1 July 2020 (UTC)

- Keep Per above comments, he passes GNG, and as he received coverage prior to his campaign he does not fall to any possible WP:BLP1E problems, though I am not convinced there would be one anyway. Devonian Wombat (talk) 10:10, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
- If you strip away anything that's not campaign related, he was the subject of a non-notable documentary, was interviewed, and was mentioned in a couple blog posts. WP:GNG is not met. SportingFlyer T·C 01:29, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Meets GNG with sources, some of which are in French. His candidacies are essentially beside the point, there's enough here for an article. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 01:28, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. His political activity, while a noble endeavor, does not meet the guidelines for notability Wikipedia:Politician. The fact that there are newspaper articles that cover his candidacy is irrelevant to the criteria that running for elected office in of itself is not notable. While there is a documentary, the subject of that is the campaign which would warrant either special detail in the article about that election OR the documentary itself. The articles covering his activism do not have him as the subject. Rather he is simply "one of the proponents," of biodiesel. He might meet some notability as an inventor if he actually invented the original systems, but I could not find anything to that effect.--Mpen320 (talk) 02:31, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Someone should mark the French article for deletion too if this article is going to be marked. Just thought I should point that out, since there's no point in only removing it on one wiki and leaving it on another. Fulserish (talk) 3:30, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- That's a completely separate project, with separate inclusion standards. SportingFlyer T·C 04:32, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:BLP1E and redirect to 2020 Green Party of Canada leadership election - the only thing he has ever done that meets any of our inclusion criteria (and that just barely, media have hardly covered it) was to be expelled from the Green Party leadership contest over racist remarks, and it's inappropriate to center a BLP around such an incident (it's already described in as much detail as is necessary at the election page). The rest of this is the biography of a perennial candidate who hasn't ever really even come close to winning an election, and a generic "businessman" wiki-resume otherwise.

- Delete or Merge to 2020 Green Party of Canada leadership election. Multiple failed candidacies for office, including a failed bid for leadership do not meet WP:NPOL.

- Redirect: to Jio#Jio_apps. It doesn't pass WP:NSOFT, not because there is no reliable and significant coverage ([28], [29], [30], [31], [32] - these could qualify as reliable and significant), but because
Notability is not temporary. Similarly, a burst of coverage (often around product announcements) does not automatically make a product notable.

- Delete, @Rsrikanth05:, are you just pasting reference links from the article? Your second link is dead. Anyway, I went through the sources and I don't think there is any convincing coverage that is not just from the announcement or something. @Rsrikanth05: why do you mention it has received praise? That is irrelevant. It doesn't matter if it is great or not, why do you think that would matter? The only thing that matters is the coverage and if there a sufficient amount. Why do you mention that it was praised by a movement initiated by Modi? That is such an indirect appeal to authority! --Ysangkok (talk) 23:24, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- The link isn't dead. I forgot to put a space between the link and 2. It's very much a live one. Why is it relevant? By that line of reasoning, 80% of Wikipedia articles would be up for deletion because a bulk of the coverage rests on it being given 'significant' coverage. Indirect appeal to authority? That's very silly. Also, no need to ping me twice in the same message. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 09:30, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
