Does not meet WP:NPERSON. The article relies primarily on trivial coverage from entertainment news and lacks significant independent sources that demonstrate sustained coverage or impact. Furthermore, the subject's primary notability appears to be tied to associations with celebrities, rather than achievements that would warrant a standalone article. Also the article has been deleted before. M S Hassan 📬✍🏻 10:15, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: There are enough sources with significant coverage of the subject; BBC Marathi and the South China Morning Post are particularly promising. Clearly passes WP:GNG, GNG requires significant coverage of the subject, and these two coverages are not trival at all. And if I talke about the earlier AfD, it was just soft deleted means that was a PROD. GrabUp - Talk 11:01, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- I want to add a few more points. First of all, this AfD does not fulfill WP:AFDHOWTO, as the nominator did not notify the author. Secondly, I want to counter the nominator’s claim that ‘the article relies primarily on trivial coverage from entertainment news.’ My response to this is, that a person related to finance or business will naturally not receive news coverage from entertainment sources, similarly this person will not get coverage from finance-related articles. It is perfectly normal for someone to receive coverage within their relevant niche. The important factor is whether the sources meet the criteria of WP:SIGCOV, which I believe is clearly satisfied in this case. GrabUp - Talk 11:59, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: There's obviously some sort of nonsense going on here, but the subject is clearly notable. Even ignoring all publications that could possibly be construed as WP:NEWSORGINDIA, there is still enough in-depth coverage to meet GNG (see GrabUp's comment above). The refbombing and blatant promotion needs to be cleaned up, though. C F A 💬 03:20, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: The BBC and the South China Post seal the notability deal, the coverage from Indian media is helpful, but these show critical notice outside of their local area, which is more than enough for GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 14:38, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

The result was no consensus. Without a single view to delete, including from the nom, this is basically a merge discussion masquerading as an AfD. Call this a "Keep" or a "No consensus", as you wish; in either case, nothing is to be done here, and it will be a waste of time to renominate within less than six months.

The Publius Enigma was a riddle created to market the 1994 Pink Floyd album The Division Bell. It received some coverage in reliable sources, which is summarised in the Division Bell article under "Release and promotion". However, there isn't enough material out there to justify a standalone article, and much of the current content is uncited (and I can't find coverage of it in reliable sources). I think this should be redirected to The Division Bell per WP:NOPAGE. Popcornfud (talk) 14:13, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

- Keep - It was a standalone article for many years and satisfies the GNG. Notability is WP:NOTTEMPORARY. Brain Damage Magazine, at least in its original print incarnation, is a reliable source for Pink Floyd related topics. It's also not very collaborative to delete cited content right before submitting something for deletion... Iggy pop goes the weasel (talk) 19:10, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- I deleted content that was cited to unreliable sources. This was an attempt to improve the article before nominating it for deletion, not to make it worse. Brain Damage is a fanzine and can't be used as a source on Wikipedia, nor can it be used as evidence of notability. Popcornfud (talk) 19:58, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- I've added two RS... Iggy pop goes the weasel (talk) 20:02, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
- That does look better now. I'm a bit concerned about the remaining citations to faroutmagazine - that's not an actual magazine, it's just a web site, and the article cited looks very much like it was just paraphrasing the WP page as it stood at the time. The fanzine sources would be better for this, if it's just a direct quote of what a band member said in an interview. (I'm not implying that the quotes are inaccurate, just that we should give an actual source rather than citogenesis.) Adam Sampson (talk) 17:27, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

- Merge to The Division Bell#Release and promotion. This section can cover the promotion in more depth and is not nearly near capacity. If warranted by an overabundance of sourcing, it can be split summary style. But for now, there is clearly enough room to cover this within the parent topic without warranting an immediate split. If there are sources that discuss this marketing in specific separate from the album, they should be brought here for discussion. czar 18:31, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

- Merge to The Division Bell#Release and promotion. There are sufficient references to keep the topic, but it is of insufficient notability (or apparent public interest) to retain as a standalone article. It should be merged into the album's article as an interesting side-note to the record company promotion.CapnPhantasm (talk) 14:52, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- Keep As others have noted, the Division Bell article is, itself, already quite long, and this topic is very specific and focused. It's better for users searching for information on this (hunt, hoax, phenomenon, etc.) to be able to find it directly without having to sift it out of the main article. DBalling (talk) 19:10, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per DBalling. The main article is too long already. It’s an oddball article that stands noon its own, and like a lot of lists, it’s a navigation aid for our readers. There are issues with this article, but normal editing processes can take care of it. Bearian (talk) 02:05, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
- Can you clarify what you mean by this? I'm not sure how this can be described as a "navigation aid". -- asilvering (talk) 02:58, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect or merge selectively. I'm not persuaded that the sourcing here -- which seems to boil down to two news articles and some passing mentions -- constitutes an independently notable subject or gives us too much encyclopedic material to fit at the Division Bell article. The Division Bell#Release and promotion already has a nicely informative paragraph on this event, and the only additional information at Publius Enigma appears to be the overly-long quotes which are not very encyclopedic. I would not oppose a merge in principle, but I personally cannot identify any information that I think needs to be merged, so I personally support a redirect. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 02:37, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

- 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.

The article notes: "At some point, every athlete dreams of making it to the Olympics, but local badminton prodigy Jason Gunawan has had his heart set on competing at the sporting event since he was four years old. Jason, who celebrated his second consecutive win in the boys’ singles event at the All Hong Kong Schools Jing Ying Tournament last Monday, says he has been dreaming of Olympic glory ever since he watched Chinese player Lin Dan take gold at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. ... A love of badminton runs in Jason’s family. His father, a Chinese Indonesian, used to play for the Jakarta province team. As a child, Jason would head to the local sports centre with his father every Sunday to practise, eventually earning a spot on the Hong Kong junior team. He now trains 30 hours a week at the Hong Kong Sports Institute, but still finds time to practise with his dad, his biggest supporter."

The other sources also provide significant to less significant coverage about him (they discuss him in their headlines and cover biographical details about him in the article).

WP:BLP of a beauty pageant contestant, not properly referenced as passing inclusion criteria for beauty pageant contestants. The attempted notability claim here, that she won Miss World Canada (but not the international final), would be fine if the article were properly sourced, but is not "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to pass WP:GNG — note, for comparison, that most winners listed in the Miss World Canada article are unlinked names, and only a few of them actually have their own standalone biographical articles independently of the list.
But the referencing here is entirely to primary and unreliable sources that are not support for notability, such as her own self-published website and a photo of her in a stock photo repository and a short promotional blurb on Zimbio, with absolutely no GNG-worthy sourcing shown at all.

There's some standing consensus that these lists are not encyclopedic because they lack a SELCRIT and so therefore must always be definitionally WP:SYNTH.
The previous discussion at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_United_States_presidential_firsts is well worth a read as it was a massive back and forth that ended in no consensus. Since then, other articles have narrowly ended in deletion:
Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_Indian_prime_ministerial_firsts Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_Mexican_presidential_firsts Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_Philippine_presidential_firsts
I'm of the view that this kind of article can never ever, in any circumstances, be a good article because it will always be a pile of random information.

- Keep. I'm persuaded by Bkatcher. - WPGA2345 - ☛ 21:34, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Addendem to my keep vote. It satisfies WP:NLIST: Sources include the article "Presidential Firsts" in The Journal of Education, the New York Times article "Presidential Firsts, Mosts and Almosts; ...", the Newsweek article "Trump's Historic Conviction: Test Yourself on Other Presidential Firsts", the USA Today article "The greatest presidential 'firsts' in history", the Complete Book of Historic Presidential Firsts: With Fascinating Details & Factual Tid-Bits, etc. etc. Murica is the center of the universe, and the president is the center of Murica (just ask any USian).

- Keep. As demonstrated above, there is significant coverage of US 'presidential firsts' from a variety of reliable sources. Reading the other AfDs that ended in deletion, linked by the nominator, I don't believe any enjoyed the level of coverage we have available for American presidential achievements. It would seem WP:LISTN is met:
a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources
. I know 'lists' are a contentious article type, but the policy-based arguments for deletion seem weak to me. I will note that concerns about WP:INDISCRIMINATE are perhaps fair, but I see no reason why we can't establish the merits of each first's inclusion based on it appearing in multiple reliable sources deeming it noteworthy — surely enough to prevent the article becoming a random selection of trivia. (Perhaps with a healthy dose of common sense, and talk page discussion when an item is contentious.) GhostOfNoMeme 06:46, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

Each of them speaks to the subject's status as Mayor, and I do not believe that mayors qualify in general for WP:NPOLITICIAN.

- @GTrang: With regard to the Bengali sources, Daily Naya Diganta, Janakantha, and Jago News 24 are generally reliable for what newspapers are usually reliable for. Somoy News is classified as generally unreliable by User:Headbomb/unreliable, I think unfairly because that's based on a single WP:RSN discussion with very low participation where the main complaint was that their English was poor (almost all their news reporting is in Bengali, not English). Barishal Times is a local news organization without much of an established reputation for accuracy and fact checking, but is probably okay.

It is possible for them to be notable by meeting the WP:GNG, but Bauphal is a municipality with a population of 11,000-12,000, and it would be highly unusual for a mayor of a Bangladeshi town that size to be notable. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:46, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
- Delete There are multiple, mostly reliable sources. The first three are independent of him, but not intellectually independent of each other – they all say essentially the same thing: that he's the first mayor, elected on 22 May 2012, and unopposed in January 2022. The last four are independent, but are primary sources that say little about him: he spoke at a rally, his supporters clashed with opponents, he is one of a large group of people charged in connection with violence at local political events. All of that is par for the course for a Bangladeshi politician, and it may take years for the courts to decide the cases. What the sources lack is significant coverage of him and any analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the facts. So does not meet WP:GNG. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:22, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

This page and the item it discusses are basically just rumours. They are not notable and there are no primary sources that prove these guns ever existed.

Actually, the Forgotten Weapons Youtube video in the article acknowledges the lack of any proof for a connection between Louis Marquis and the Nazis.

But I think some of this information can at least be reworked into GameSalad. Soulbust (talk) 19:54, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

- Merge This article can be merged into the Black Rock Group as this is the same stratigraphic unit as it is known in in United States. there is an abundance of published papers that can be found in Google Scholar for "Black Rock River Formation". Paul H. (talk) 17:31, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- The Black River Formation is the name of only part of the Black River Group. This article just needs expansion, not merging. Lavalizard101 (talk) 22:52, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Merge to Black River Group. One of the sources there notes that "Black River Formation", "Black River Group", and "Black River Limestone" are synonymous. No evidence or sources have been presented to justify the assertion that the Formation constitutes only a part of the Group. While the lack of current development in the article doesn't render it subject to deletion for lack of notability, it is a factor to be considered under WP:PAGEDECIDE, and I think merger is a suitable outcome under those criteria, which could be reconsidered if or when the content about this topic is expanded. Choess (talk) 09:23, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Choess:@Paul H.: I didn't see that about the synonymous terms. There is about 6 other micro articles in this series. I will check if any of the others have that equality. If not they will be heading for Afd. Ideally they would all be a merge result as they are very similar and based on false premise. scope_creepTalk 11:35, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- That source, literally shows that the Black River Formation is the term used for the section in Michigan only (in the US at least), hence its name for a part of the group (a geographical part is still part of the group). Lavalizard101 (talk) 15:18, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not quite sure I follow your logic. You're saying that the BRG and the BRF are both the same stratum, but we should have different articles for them because the stratum is only called the BRF when it enters the borders of Michigan? Choess (talk) 16:39, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- The BRF is the name given to the thin undifferentiated sections of BRG, so its not the name changes at the border essentially, its the name given to a part that is undifferentiated due to thickness rather than geographical area, its just that that matches up to being only in Michigan.

- @Choess:@Scope creep:The details of "Black River" usage can be found in the "National Geologic Map Database Geolex — Unit Summary" for "Geologic Unit: Black River". "Black River Group" is used in six states (NY, PA, WV VA, IN,and VT); "Black River Limestone" is used in seven states (IL, IN, MI, NY, OH, PA, and WV); and "Black River Formation" is used in one state (MI); and in Quebec. Notice that in some cases, the two different names are in usage in the same state. The usage of other stratigraphic units can be checked in "National Geologic Map Database Geolex Search".
Canada has an online geological lexion of stratigraphic nomenclature called "WEBLEX Canada". It lists "Black River Group" as the accepted usage and shows it has the same type locatity as the "Black River Group", "Black River Formation", and "Black River Limestone". Paul H.

- short wire article; looks like paid coverage
- not independent (by author of book)
- not independent (by author of book)
- has a byline, not short, not in an obvious ads-only section; the best source in the article at present, but it's still not... great
- not independent (by author of book)
- basically a celebrity endorsement? really don't think this is fully independent
- no byline, obvious marketing copy

The book exists and its back cover gives some vague details about his life [16] but not exactly matching any particulars in the article. The one working archive footnote shows that someone named "William Mackay" earned a certain honor but that's all we learn, and the name is so common even in combination with the middle name (not given in this footnote) that we have no idea whether it's the same one.

Comparing this to the various List of years in hip hop music articles, most recently 2024 in hip hop music, and given the ubiquity of Hip hop culture around the world, this may well merit an article once the year 2025 actually starts. As it stands as of 1 Sep 2024, this would appear to fall under any or all deletion criteria WP:P&G-s, including but not limited to WP:TOOSOON and WP:CRYSTAL. That said, I do not oppose its speedy deletion, given the nature of its 1 Sep 2024 content. As always, happy to be proven wrong about this. Or anything else.

Absolutely not ready to be published in its current state, but oftentimes it's about that time where enough is known/covered that it could be created if someone actually tried. (2025 in heavy metal music is in a barely passable state and I've been putting material together for the rock music equivalent.) Thus probably needs to be sent to a WP:DRAFT in the meantime though.

Comment This is a mess. I have just discovered that @2003 LN6: "moved" the previous Roman cognomen page to the dab page by doing a cut and paste move, thus losing the past history (which shows its creation in 2001 by @Clarityfiend:. With the existence of Martialis (ant), the genus, and a bishop I've found too, this should clearly be a dab page but it should not have been created like that. I have restored Martialis (cognomen) to its version before that incorrect edit, but I now suggest:
Withdraw this AfDMake a formal WP:RM to move that page to the title Martialis (disambiguation), preserving its page historyReinstate the edits I've made which format it as a dab page with a primary topic. PamD 12:20, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

- Delete, this sort of cataloguing is not Wikipedia's business, and it appears to be a conflict of interest, i.e. this is actively undesirable as well as totally unnecessary and unencyclopedic. Chiswick Chap (talk) 08:33, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

- Doesn't matter how much it's cleaned up, the topic of the timeline isn't notable (even if the company is, but that's a separate article, and notability is not inherited) and is of benefit only to the company concerned. This sort of over-detail is not in Wikipedia's interest; it should not be here, and keeping it is actively dangerous as it encourages other companies to try to use us for free advertising.

Trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may be used to support content in an article, but it is not sufficient to establish notability. This includes listings in database sources with low, wide-sweeping generic standards of inclusion, such as Sports Reference's college football and basketball databases.

Lacking secondary sources. Completely fails WP:ORGCRIT. There is no way that individual dioceses of the fringe Free Church of England are individually notable. AusLondonder (talk) 15:13, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

- Keep as a valid split from a notable main article it does not have to pass WP:ORGCRIT in my view. In any case WP:NCHURCH specifies that passing WP:GNG is enough, imv Atlantic306 (talk) 19:02, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- That's a very generous reading of NCHURCH which states that religious organisations "must meet the notability guideline for organizations and companies or the general notability guideline or both". Nevertheless, can you explain how this meets GNG? Where is the "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject"? It's certainly not there now. AusLondonder (talk) 21:10, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Yes passing GNG is enough... But this topic doesn't appear to pass GNG. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 19:31, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. There should probably be an SNG on this but dioceses and other middle judicatories of major church traditions (Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican) are almost always viewed per se as notable, even without secondary sourcing (see AfDs from 2019, 2018, 2018, 2012, 2007, 2007). (The only "delete" results for a diocese that I've seen were for a tiny splinter group with no sourcing available at all or for an apparent hoax.) This isn't a WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument; there's precedent established in the discussions resulting in a long series of "keep" decisions for dioceses, and editors in those debates referred to previous precedent as well. Separately from this precedent, there is WP:SIGCOV for the FCE's Southern Diocese: see the Telegraph, Anglican Ink, PCN, and an encyclopedic entry in the Encyclopedia Americana. Dclemens1971 (talk) 03:01, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- None of that appears to be significant coverage of the Diocese. Any argument based on precedent is a OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument, arguments of precedent aren't worth anything on wikipedia because we give absolutely no value to precedent whatsoever... We choose a different approach, consensus. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 19:31, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- Each article needs to be judged on its own merits, not false claims to inherent notability. This is particularly the case for a minor, fringe organisation like the Free Church of England. To equate the FCE to the Catholic Church or the Anglican Communion is simply ridiculous. The Telegraph article is absolutely not significant coverage of the Southern Diocese specifically. AusLondonder (talk) 12:07, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment. As I !voted above, I do think based on longstanding precedent "keep" is the community default for this sort of article, but I would accept "merge" as an alternative based on the size of the diocese (and considering that had it been up to me I would not have created free-standing pages for the FCE dioceses in the first place). Dclemens1971 (talk) 18:15, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per longstanding precedent that dioceses of established church organizations are typically treated as presumptively notable, provided that they actually have more than just a collection of people holding meetings in their living rooms. The diocese is admittedly rather small. But I think it passes our customary threshold. This has been the WP:COMMONSENSE approach to these articles for as long as I can remember. -Ad Orientem (talk) 03:50, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. "Diocese" of a small splinter group consisting of eight churches. No significant coverage. No notability. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:06, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep (or the alternative, merge) per Dclemens1971 and Ad Orientem. It’s not a new sect or religion; it’s almost 200 years old. Mainstream apostolic churches are notable. Bearian (talk) 02:17, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

- Delete, the topic of this article does not appear to pass GNG or any of the SNG which it actually does need to do per WP:N. None of the keep arguments made so far appear compliant with existing policy and guideline. Merge doesn't make sense because there is no signficant unique information on the page, there isn't anything to merge. Its a collection of trivia from primary sources.

Relisting comment: While the movement is towards some version of keep or merge, the delete rationale has not, IMHO, actually been rebutted. The argument to retain seems to appeal to a de facto local consensus (or perhaps IAR?) than a specific showing that this subject is notable.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Xymmax So let it be written So let it be done 02:28, 1 September 2024 (UTC)- Good to see some common sense here and acknowledgement that on the strength of the argument, which is what AfD is about, this should not be kept. AusLondonder (talk) 11:02, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Delete both Northern Diocese and Southern Diocese. The church is notable, but the individual dioceses aren't. Both lists of congregations are short, and if they were given in the parent article rather than being broken out it'd be easier to get an overview of where the church operates. I don't see any need for redirects, as someone searching for "Northern/Southern Diocese" is unlikely to be looking for this church. Adam Sampson (talk) 15:21, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Merge to Free Church of England. Per Adam Sampson, the church is notable, the individual dioceses not. There is simply no need to split out the information about the northern and southern dicocese from the parent article. Anyone interested in the Free Church of England will be better served by having all the information in that article, which is well below the threshold for considering a size split. I note Adam Sampson's concern that a redirect is not needed, and a merge will leave a redirect. I believe, however, there is a small amount of mergeable information, and keeping the edit history is then the right thing to do. Should another primary topic of Southern diocese emerge, the redirect could be overwritten with the new primary topic, but edit history would still be preserved. Thus I believe merge is the most sensible outcome. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 17:06, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: Well, the most RS I can find is Fox News saying it's a fanciful interpretation of events [34] and the usual non-RS [35] trying to push a certain viewpoint, so I don't see notability. Oaktree b (talk) 01:03, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- weak delete feels like NOTNEWS for now, but I've seen a ton of contradictory reporting on this and suspect we will see more coverage (of the coverage most likely). But for now I think we are at delete. Hobit (talk) 01:44, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

- Move to draft I support moving the article to draft where it can be incubated and sources that indicated notability are added. There is little coverage for series leed they lauched, Also the article can be rewritten from a more neutral point of viewTesleemah 09:54, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Is there anyone willing to take on rewriting a 14 year-old article in Draft space? Because otherwise, Draftification can just mean a CSD G13 in six months.

The result was soft delete. Based on minimal participation, this uncontroversial nomination is treated as an expired PROD (a.k.a. "soft deletion"). Editors can request the article's undeletion. Liz Read! Talk! 05:33, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

Baker, in passing, calls this a village, but all I can ever seem to find there is the grain business (now owned by Purdue) which sits next to the tracks as far back as I can see. An 1886 history of the county doesn't mention it, though it mentions various people named Graham. I think this is just a rail point. Mangoe (talk) 02:31, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: Hard to find information, but this book: [36] talks all about the Graham family of Daviess County and never mentions a "community" named Graham, though I couldn't review every page. Pretty thin gruel for an article, especially since topo maps only show this as a couple of buildings by the railroad tracks, and today it's a grain elevator. Neither of these amounts to a populated place as required by WP:NPLACE. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 15:06, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

- Delete: Definitely seems like advertising. As Maile66 said BGRCT made 5 edits to this article and never made another edit. Most edits after that were just references or bot edits. BGRCT sounds like an acronym of BGR Capital & Trade. Hlsci (talk) 01:09, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
