Plainly fails to meet general notability guidelines (WP:GNG) and also WP:NBUILDING guidlines. The only source cited is blacklisted (or so I've been told). I favor deletion rather than trying to merge into some other related article (such as List of tallest buildings in Atlanta) but wanted to generate consensus rather than PROD'ing it. DocFreeman24 (talk) 23:06, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: List of tallest buildings in Atlanta is a Featured List, albeit an old one from 2008. The concept of "tallest structures in Atlanta" is surely notable, and the page currently lists the tallest broadcasting tower as being taller than the tallest building, so I'm inclined to lean toward a merge. I'm having trouble sourcing the tower's height, though; the address listed for the tallest one is incorrect, but from Google Maps there does appear to be a broadcast tower at that entry's coordinates, which are different than the address. If the listed height ends up being incorrect, we could probably just delete. Otherwise, we'll want to merge to the buildings page, and perhaps send it to WP:FLRC if it does not appear up to standard. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 23:12, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:V and WP:NOR. as long as city-data.com is the only source. This is not a reliable source for information, per their about page, Please note that a lot of content on our site is user-generated. Looking at the source, it seems as though someone has checked all of the towers and then listed what they determined to be the tallest, a violation of NOR. Not to mention that there is no indication of passing NLIST or GNG, the relevant guidelines. If there is a source verifying the heights of these towers and placing them in context of the list of tallest buildings in Atlanta, merge there. Otherwise, we have no choice but to delete.

  • Delete per Eddie891's good reasoning; there is an unusual amount of over-information in Atlanta television and radio articles about individual communications transmitters that isn't found in any other market's articles, and this just adds to that pile of CRUFT.

Even if we can verify the heights of the towers as the IP lists above, they cannot be presented as X tallest structure in Atlanta unless there is a reliable source saying that it is X tallest structure in Atlanta, which is where V and NOR concerns come in. And up to this point in the discussion, nobody has presented a source that does that-- and I cannot find one. Eddie891 Talk Work 12:29, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG and WP:NSEASONS. This is an article about a Division III football season where the team was not ranked in the Top 25 in that division and closed with a losing record of 3-7. While considerable effort has been put into the article, the sourcing is not independent and does contribute toward the GNG analysis. Cbl62 (talk) 22:47, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

One concern I have with redirecting is that it leaves a blue link in Template:Hampden–Sydney Tigers football navbox, creating the impression that an article exists, and likely encouraging an ambitious editor to fill in the remaining redlinks. Also, it makes it too easy for someone to recreate the article since the full text remains in the history. We simply should not have articles for ordinary DIII seasons (or in this case less than ordinary), and the appropriate result IMO remains deletion. Cbl62 (talk) 19:20, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Another one of User:Soul Crusher's articles, although this one dates back to 2016, so it is older than their most recent binge. Of the sources in the article, the AllMusic entry is just a track listing, the Trouser piece doesn't mention this album, and the other source is just the album booklet. All of the sources I could turn up in a WP:BEFORE are unreliable. Since this is a split album, where both bands have articles, there's no good redirection target, so deletion is the best solution here. Hog Farm Bacon 22:48, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Baseball player who never made it past the AA level (and even at the AA level, he only played 67 games) His great uncle Eddie Gaedel is quite famous in the baseball world as the smallest player ever to appear in a Major League Baseball game. (If you don't know the story, the article is a fun read) But of course, notability is not inherited and Kyle Gaedele does not meet the requirements of WP:NBASE.

I did consider the possibility of a merge but I feel that the paragraph about Kyle Gaedele in the Eddie Gaedel article is giving him undue importance. It's a fairly random connection. After all Eddie was never a true baseball player so using a baseball connection with his grandnephew is like connecting, say, a notable opera singer with a grandnephew who is a non-notable football player.

  • Keep individual schools may not warrant articles, but the school district with all its schools probably does. looking at the WP:NOTDIR, this list does not meet any of the criteria there .The items are connected; not a genealogy, not lists of phone numbers as in white or yellow pages, not a program or event guide, not a catalog, not an intersection to make an artificial listing, and it has context and information about each entry. So WP:NOTDIR is no reason to delete this. Perhaps it could be merged to Clark County School District. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:52, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I’ve worked hard to make this page as accurate as possible. It is fun adding information to schools that don’t get as much positive and or public recognition as they do (eg Thurman White Middle School). CCSD is also one of the largest school districts in the US, so it’s important to display its hundreds of schools in one page. Shon-Shon3 02:27, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
  • Keep - if this exemplary list falls foul of WP:SOMETHINGorOTHER, then the 'rule' is an idiot. Oculi (talk) 13:12, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or merge to Clark County School District. Justifiable as a WP:SPLIT or per WP:LISTPURP as an informational list with clearly relevant information to that parent school district topic. Numerous listed schools also have their own articles. postdlf (talk) 15:30, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. A legitimate application of WP:SPLIT. A table of this kind is exactly what I'd expect and want to see in a well developed article about a school district. The table succintly summarizes essential school info and is not excessively detailed. In this case, because of the number of schools in the district, the table is quite long and would oveverwhelm the parent article, so splitting it away is a perfectly reasonable solution. Nsk92 (talk) 16:18, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Clark County School District. While I agree that this is something people expect to see, that means it should be in it's current form and there is zero reason to have a separate list or for this then the one about the school district. Especially since the vast majority of entries are un-referenced or do not have articles. Only the high schools do and that's enough to warrant a list article IMO. My guess is that a lot of those high school articles will likely be deleted in the future anyway, but even if they aren't, they can be included in Clark County School District without all the other unnecessary entries that aren't notable and likely no one cares about. For instance adult education centers. Wikipedia isn't a directory and no list is meant to be exhaustive. Like is it worth listing elementary schools that opened two years ago anywhere? Probably not. In no way is creating a separate list just so you can a legitimate WP:SPLIT case. --Adamant1 (talk) 04:36, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep If this were a CSD I would say something along the lines of rename to "List of schools in Clark County, Nevada" (changing the inclusion criteria) since the school district itself is probably a bit too specific, but it's a valid list per WP:LISTN/WP:SPLIT. SportingFlyer T·C 22:54, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep for navigation purposes, the above discussion, and WP:IAR. With all due respect, this comes at a terrible time when the recent movement has been to redirect individual schools in the Las Vegas area to here.

exclusively bad sourcing, these do not establish notability. mostly churnalism. The most reputable are also not sufficient: The Forbes source is written by staff, but it is a list of 50 different projects, with just a single sentence for each of them. There is no original research, that can't have been the case if the "article" covers 50 projects. The Fortune article is not primarily covering Dragonchain, it is just a shout-out; and there is no citable info, the blurb does not establish notability. The Bloomberg source is a reprint from BusinessWire, which is simply printing whatever companies would like them to. This is not considered a reliable source elsewhere, we have had many examples of this. The article implies that it is written by Vision Tree Media which seems to have been contracted to do various PR projects for Dragonchain. Ysangkok (talk) 19:49, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete and salt. The recreation after the previous AFD was literally the same text, and should really have been deleted immediately, or never been created. The current version is much longer, but is of no more substance - this is ridiculously promotional, and the scanty RS coverage is passing mentions at best. WP:BEFORE shows press releases, stuff from their ICO, and passing mentions. If this is kept, it would need to be cut to about two lines - David Gerard (talk) 09:08, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. In agreement that the page needs work. Disagreed on 'exclusively' bad sourcing, however the unreliable sources mentioned can and should be removed at any time rather than deleting an entire page. Disagreed that the page content is the same as the previous AFD. The previous AFD was a terrible piece focused on token shilling and price speculation. Per Wikipedia's Alternatives to Deletion policies; If editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page. David Gerard seems to be in agreement that the page can be kept, though we are not in agreement that it would need to be 'cut to about two lines'. Ysangkok seems to be in agreement there are sources that should be removed, though not every source referenced in the page can be disputed like that and claims made towards Vision Tree are speculative. As far as I know Vision Tree is the producer of the documentary that aired on Discovery Science Channel, but I am not opposed to removing inappropriate references or sources from the page. Suggest to further discuss in the talk page, make edits where needed, and if that doesn't work, to follow the normal protocol we have available at dispute resolution. Last but not least, to anyone following the Dragonchain page, my strong advice is to improve that page to meet the Wikipedia standards and to address the valid concerns expressed here.

    • If you think that's a "keep" from me, then you are not good at judging the opinions of other editors, to a degree that you should probably stop trying to. Do you have RSes that meet WP:NCORP for the article? - David Gerard (talk) 10:52, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • e.g., you just claimed that a report that says on the cover it's from Accenture is not from Accenture - David Gerard (talk) 13:03, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • The article can be improved, no debate there from my end. Accenture is not involved or mentioned anywhere in the World Economic Forum report. The World Economic Forum collaborated with Deloitte, but it certainly is not a marketing document from Accenture. The report is the result of more than 200 expert interviews and nine international workshops over the past year as part of the Forum’s AI in Financial Services project. JeffreyDutch (talk) 14:11, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • @JeffreyDutch:, you just added a reference to a piece on The Next Web which only mentions Dragonchain in the quote "The user uploaded the tweet and its URL to Dragonchain, a web app that claims to timestamp tweets to blockchains such as Ethereum. The tweet can be viewed on the blockchain here.". That is not independent journalism, it is just a shoutout. It is unusable as a reference. The author even distanced themselves from the fact that Dragonchain actually timestamped anything by using "claims"! --Ysangkok (talk) 19:15, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Horrible article. Maybe after TNT rewrite using only high quality RSs (if available) I may change my mind, but the article in its current state is not suitable for an encyclopedia (fails GNG, ad-like language, inline external promo links etc.).

  • Keep I feel this one is notable. It has coverage in Inc, Yahoo and number of other publications. I agree that there are lot's of content that is unsourced and the article needs some work. I also see some press releases used. I am considering removing most sections that are unsourced, but need to review and research further. However, I also feel it's relation to Disney and how it started out by them, makes it notable as well.Expertwikiguy (talk) 10:24, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Expertwikiguy: Notability is not established based on whether you think the subject was funded by a company you consider significant. Your comment doesn't address the issue of bad sourcing. Just because sources were funded by Disney doesn't mean they are well-researched or in-depth. I refer to CORPDEPTH linked by David Gerard above. --Ysangkok (talk) 19:31, 7 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but Improve The subject is clearly notable for all the reasons mentioned above. Blockchain technology is world-changing technology that is going to continually evolve. While it's in its infancy still, with few among the general public well-informed (or informed at all) on the topic, this will change quickly. Many fortune 100 companies are heavily invested in blockchain technology with many different coins and platforms right now. The fact that this was started by Disney is a strong nod to notability. While there is likely to be a consolidation of blockchain platforms and associated coins in the future, the individual unique platforms are laying the groundwork now, and are therefore notable and important. I don't feel that this violates GNG or is ad-like in nature. While the citations are not written in the proper format, that is easily fixable.K67 (talk) 16:04, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and salt Once you get past the horrible sources, bad unsourced writing, and hyperbolic stuff about blockchain technology being "world-changing" (which might or might not be true, but it doesn't automatically mean this implementation of it is anyway), then all your left with is a pretty routine article about yet another run of the mill blockchain thing, that is essentially no different the article that was already delete. So, there's zero reason to keep this. The claim that this is somehow drastically different enough to justify recreation is ridiculous. It just uses way buzz words then the original article. That's it. --Adamant1 (talk) 07:36, 5 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I have done major cleanup on this article, probably over 25% unsourced content removed, so it looks much better now. Removed press releases and self sourced material.

Second, there are some users in certain AfDs who say Delete: per nom and Keep: per above or certain user because, IMV, they agree with or have the same views as either of them. IMO, I'm satisfied with Expertwikiguy's improvement on the article and I agree with his, JeffreyDutch's and K67's arguments. That's why my keep stands.

  • Delete An examination of the references (ignoring the primary sources and clearly marked Business Wire announcements) shows the following:
    • This from Business Insider discusses how Disney originally developed the technology and how some of their developers are looking for funding to continue. A reading of the article makes it clear that it is based on an interview with Joe Roets, the CEO of Dragonchain Inc. As per WP:ORGIND, a reference must have "Independent Content" which is defined as follows: [need quotation to verify]. There is nothing in the article that is clearly unattributable to company sources, fails WP:ORGIND.
    • This from Inc.com] from 2017 says that the author interviews Roets from the article. This article also fall short of "Independent Content". Facts/opinions/analysis/etc on the topic company are invariably attributed to company sources. This article also fails WP:ORGIND.
    • This from Orlando Politics (assuming it is a reliable source) is a mention-in-passing with a quotation from the CEO with no in-depth information on the company, fails WP:CORPDEPTH.
    • This from BizJournals is also a mention-in-passing with no in-depth information on the company, also fails WP:CORPDEPTH
    • Thie from InfoWorld from 2016 makes no mention of the topic company but provides a description of the blockchain technology (which is not the topic of the article here at AfD). Fails WP:CORPDEPTH.
    • This from GeekWire discusses the company's business three core business arms and the future of the company and is based on a talk and information provided by the CEO. While it contains good details, it is clear that all of the information on the company was provided by the CEO and there is no evidence of "Independent Content", fails WP:ORGIND.
    • This from Enterprise Times is entirely based on a company announcement even including word-for-word some descriptions and quotes, fails ORGIND.
    • This from 425Business is an announcement of a local award (Eastside Small Business of the Year) and relies entirely on information/interview provided by company sources, fails ORGIND
    • This from SeattleBusiness "Tech Impact" awards lists the company as an award winner. It is a mention-in-passing, fails WP:CORPDEPTH. The award is not a major award and does not confer automatic notability.
    • This from Silicon Angle discusses a documentary series which will follow the CEO/founder of the company (and other entrepreneurs) who have faced resistence from regulators to Blockchain technology. The article provides no details on the company, fails CORPDEPTH.
    • This also from Silicon Angle is entirely based on this PR company announcement, fails ORGIND
I am unable to locate a single reference that meets the criteria for establishing notability, topic fails GNG/NCORP. HighKing++ 15:58, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Notability wise (and just logically anyway) this is all over the place. The argument that it is notable because it was created by Disney seems even more tenuous given the (unverifiable) claim in the intro that Dragonchain is no longer associated with Disney. If Disney, of all conglomerates, allegedly gave up total control of the project, that would make it even less than non-notable in my mind. The other, more important thing, is Dragonchain even a blockchain? I'd like verifiable sources on that fact first, some of the statements in the article and in the dubious source material is totally contradictory to the basic principles of blockchain tech. "Each application or node is its own blockchain." Yeah, ok. By that logic my thermostat is its own blockchain. From Inc.com source : "...we are able to leverage AWS for scale." That sounds very not-blockchain to me. Lastly, why is Dragonchain listed in the cryptocurrency template as an ERC-20 token? If its notability peaks at having an Ethereum token... clearly delete. My point is, it's not clear whether Dragonchain is really a "blockchain" or just a data center with extra steps, so saying the article is notable because it is blockchain also needs verifiable sources to be backed up. On top of that the tone jumps out as a desperate sales pitch. hidden lemon (talk) 12:03, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per HighKing. A lot of hype sourced to press releases, but no substantial independent coverage. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:45, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Fails WP:NCORP as well as WP:ORGIND (#Independent sources) and WP:CORPDEPTH (#Significant coverage). Notability is not not inherited so attempts to tie this to Disney for notability is vain and fails WP:INHERITORG. What I do see is promotionism not only on this non-mined cryptocurrency but as a whole in some attempt to list all 1600+ cryptocurrencies on Wikipedia as being notable simply because they exist with mostly primary sources and some passing mention in reliable sources. Where is the bottom limit on notability? This is established GNG: If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list. I do not see that criteria being met. Otr500 (talk) 12:02, 17 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The only source on the article is the webpage of the organization he was head of. Beyond that, this is a church with less than 2,000 members. The fact it is a multi-congregation church does not change the fact that it is very small. There is nothing to show this guy is notable, and if we consistently made everybody who was a religious leader with the amount of organization under him and impact this guy had notable, we would probably at least double the size of Wikipedia creating articles on very low profile religious leaders.

  • Keep I'm having a hard time thinking of a case where an article about the head of a diocese of a major denomination was removed... normally we keep these. It's a stub, but an appropriate one. A lack of online sources doesn't surprise me. I'd say either WP:IMPACT would suffice. BTW-the current membership is reported around 2,000 members, but the Episcopal Church membership may show a different amount for 1981 to 1995--it looks like the denomination in general has lost membership since then. --Paul McDonald (talk) 23:21, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • verrifiability means you need to find the sources, not baldly assert that they exist in the face of a lack of such. Keeping this article is absurd considering how small this diocese is.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:56, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • We just plain cannot keep articles sourced only to the website of a church organization a person was a leader of. If the "all bishops are default notable" standard leads to that, it needs to be scrapped. Such notability standards are not supposed to justify keeping articles that lack any 3rd-party coverage. Note that I did not even have to speficy reliable or indepth third party coverage, we have just plain none here.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:04, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
        • Then I'm going to go with the policy ignore all rules and say that keeping this article makes Wikipedia better. The fact that it is difficult to find online news sources for someone from this time period is not surprising and insisting that it be accomplished during an AFD is unnecessary. When we have the time to complete such research, those who have the ability come up with the coverage you request. Until then, there is no reason to believe that there is any bad faith in the existence of the article and no reason to believe the information is not correct. Deleting the article just means that it will be put back later and seems disruptive to the process.--Paul McDonald (talk) 12:59, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I personally don't agree that bishops SHOULD be considered notable. Archbishops yes. But they *are* considered notable. It would be nice if someone would just find an article or two on the man so we could at least pretend he meets some reliable secondary etc requirement. Wikipedia should not just mirror a website and serve as a directory. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 03:21, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Or we could just argue that there is a resasonably large minimum for archdiocese size. Consider that the Roman Catholic Diocese of Dodge City that covers the same area has 60,000 Catholics in it. There are a few dioceses with over 1 million members. Treating all bishops as if they are the same makes no sense.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:03, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • Treating all time periods as if they were the same also makes no sense. The Episcopal Church has gone through changes in membership size during the time period from when this individual served to today.--Paul McDonald (talk) 17:49, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

        • It's beyond clear that you don't like it and the lack of civility through your name-calling against the organization clearly indicates that. WP:IDONTLIKEIT is not a reason to delete. This source reports membership at the national level dropping from 2.5 million in 1980 to 1.6 million in 2019. It's reasonable to assert that similar trends likely occurred in this geogrpahic area.--Paul McDonald (talk) 13:57, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
          • Which would at most give us 4000 members in the diocese. That is still not the size of an organization that justifies having an article. This is purlely about our policy being against having article that are sourced only to the internal website of an organization someone is a part of. This is consistently against the policy for creating an article on any individual. There is no special pleading on my part here. There are still no independent sources at all.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:10, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
          • John Pack Lambert, you raise some good points. I think bishops should have to meet some level of citation requirement.

DiamondRemley39 (talk) 14:43, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Subject notabilty guidelines are meant to suggest that certain topics are generally notable. They are not meant to force a keep of an article sourced in a way that is totally and completely not independent.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:06, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Some of the comments above are misleading. It is not that there are few online sources. It is that no one has identified anywhere any source other than the website of the organization this person was the head of. To keep this article would be a basic violation of the principles of verifiability. If those wanting to keep could state any independent, 3rd party source that had ever said anything about Ashby we could consider keeping the article. They have shown no eivdence that such sources exist at all, anywhere.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:56, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Even with the new sources I still think this article should be deleted. They are very short passing mentions in a local paper. I have seen many religious leaders with more substantial mentions in the news leading organizations over 100 times as big as this diocese have articles on them deleted. The sourcing here is still not enough to justify the article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:13, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete Redirect per Clarityfiend and per the subject-specific notability guideline, which includes: "[M]ore than just a church record of a Bishop existing is required to establish notability." Newspaper coverage establishes his existence, but not his notability. Secondary sourcing of Ashby is scant, weak, and from a single independent publication (I am the one who searched for and added them in the interest of showing that I did look into Ashby before voting--there isn't so much as an interview or a profile of him.). The coverage establishes very little other than his existence in the office--one is barely more than a name check. Consider that I am generally a pretty liberal inclusionist, but not when it comes to making Wikipedia a directory of mainline religious hierarchical office holders for the history of time. Not without sourcing. I hold no prejudice against spinning out an article if an interested historian is able to dig up some good resources to which I have no access and with which I'd be unfamiliar. Happy to change my vote if someone digs into the Episcopalian history and is able to find coverage of Ashby. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 16:40, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • Note about my prev statement: I was under the impression that bishops were considered notable by Wikipedia standards until the past few days. I was incorrect. That's an essay specific to the Catholic WikiProject. It is not policy.

I got to wonder what the Episcopal population in Kansas is. Pew has it as 1% of the population of Kansas 1. That's got to be more recent and perhaps a bit different from what it was in Ashby's time, with mainline bodies typically losing members in recent years. FWIW, Catholic is 18% in Kansas.

AfD is all about discrimination in the academic sense of the word.

  • Comment He does not meet the general notability guideline. Two sources from the same publication count as one. One of those pieces isn't significant coverage anyway. His employer's piece on him cannot be considered independent coverage. Biographical topics that don't qualify for specific notability guidelines should meet WP:GNG. For all the keep votes here, it seems I'm the only one who looked for/found anything since the AfD started. Someone else look now and make us look fools--make us want to change our votes. Until then, no reason to keep this as a standalone article. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 20:28, 15 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I would be surprised if there are not three bios of him in print out there somewhere. Here is one:[3] from The Living Church. Possibly an offline search of various Western Kanasas periodicals would do it.--Epiphyllumlover (talk) 22:01, 15 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge - There's no content here other than his birth/death date that isn't on the diocese page, if there's no further detail we should just put that on the list and redirect. [4] is a slightly more thorough obituary, but I don't see much else (and The Living Church is an Episcopal publication that isn't independent). I'm hesitant to overturn precedent at WP:CLERGY (Common outcomes) without wider discussion - language of "may be notable" was added in 2011 [5] and was changed to "usually notable" in 2013 [6]. If there is consensus not to keep, a follow-up discussion should be started at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Common outcomes - other pages such as Rustin R. Kimsey would also likely be merged. power~enwiki (π, ν) 01:08, 16 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I'd be very reluctant for us to start removing whole classes of articles--I think rather we should simplify AfD by increasing the number of types of things we do accept as presumably notable. DGG ( talk ) 01:12, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DePROD reason deprod - may be notable for refeering at world cup

The article is sourced only from the company's own website. A search does not reveal any independent coverage, significant or otherwise. What keeps this article from being straightforwardly promotional is that it doesn't reek of the normal puff language, though NPOV is still not adhered to.

  • Delete - Non-notable startup. The coverage I can find is all in blogs, forums, or appears to be paid for, so this seems to fail WP:GNG and WP:NORG. Hog Farm Bacon 20:26, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Incubation - Potential. I've been an avid user of Okeano and have no current affiliation. I just wanted to create the WIki page for it since it seems like a notable idea. I think incubating it would allow others to edit it and contribute if new information becomes available, such as for example interviews with Okeano's founder or features in blogs or online magazines.

  • Delete: An article on a recent start-up; searches find various postings but I am seeing nothing which would demonstrate attained WP:NCORP or WP:NWEB notability. (Regarding the Incubation suggestion above, it is worth noting that "interviews with Okeano's founder or features in blogs", as and when these occur, would not be sufficient here.

  • Delete: the biggest problem with this article is that it duplicates almost entirely the existing Dromayor article, and almost nothing in this article contains any biographical detail about Mr. Villa Osorio himself, it's mostly about the company. Most of the sources either don't mention the subject, or make brief passing mentions, such as "he founded Dromayor in 1948" or that his family invested in the local football team. The genealogy source isn't acceptable on Wikipedia as it's user-generated and edited. The only source with any in-depth detail is the article in the newsletter of his local chamber of commerce. It also includes all the mentions of his birth date, year he founded Dromayor, his marriage and family, investments in construction and founding the Club de Comercio in his home city, so all the other sources mentioning these items are redundant and are just being used to pad out the article.

Hi. As i had noted also on dromayor. I do know there are more references in print but the public libraries in colombia are currently closed because of the virus. So when i can access that i will list them. Also it would have been better to merge the 2 pages, (dromayor and hector villa) like richard had sugested. But ill build on this one once i have more references. Best regards. Edit elefant. November 1st 2020.

Trump's "fraud" claims have been widely dismissed, we should not be lending credence to this conspiratorial nonsense; which is what this article does essentially. What Republican politicians think about WP:FRINGE nonsense should not explored in a Wikipedia article, doing so is ultimately WP:OR. Acousmana (talk) 16:22, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: my issue with the article is not that it is on a fringe topic, because WP:FRINGE does not mandate the deletion of articles, only placing them in context (as I attempted to do by adding a couple of sentences in the lead about Trump's claims being false). My issue is the false dichotomy of "Denounced" or "Supported", a big BLP issue as we are taking Republicans' comments out of context by pigeonholing them into such categories. For instance, we categorise Ben Sasse as "denouncing" Trump by saying: "If the president's legal team has real evidence, they need to present it immediately". No doubt Sasse chose these words carefully to avoid either supporting or denouncing Trump.
    Rather, I believe such a topic may be notable—it's not recentism to believe that a U.S. party's reaction to their president engaging in the fascist tactic of falsely denouncing a fair election result will be of historical importance—but it should absolutely not categorise comments in a binary way, instead presenting short quotes or representative samples of reactions from high-profile Republicans. The day-by-day summary section, while a bit unfocused, incomplete and a work in progress, is the better part of the article. — Bilorv (talk) 16:34, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
OK, fair points, but if you have this article, someone could just as easily write a Democratic reactions to Donald Trump's claims of 2020 election fraud, or Rupert Murdoch's/Fox News' reaction to Donald Trump's claims of 2020 election fraud etc. aren't they just a notable in the above context? What i mean really is, are any such articles actually necessary? Personally, I don't think so Acousmana (talk) 16:58, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Acousmana: I have already addressed the reason for focusing on the Republican Party on Talk:Republican reactions to Donald Trump's claims of 2020 election fraud#Notability. There are plenty of other articles on Wikipedia that begin with '[Adjective] reaction/response to [event]'; it's an established category to which this article is just another addition. All major U.S. quality news networks – pretty much all of which I have used for writing this article – have identified this split inside the GOP (often explicitly in the title of their articles or video reports) over whether their nominee's electoral fraud claims have any merit or not, and what the wider effect of making these repeated baseless claims is on society and the electoral democratic process. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 17:09, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
it's not a "category" and you mention list articles predominately. Not convinced cataloging reactions of politicians to one or other thing is what we should be doing. Acousmana (talk) 17:18, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If 'cataloging reactions of politicians to one or other thing' is not 'what we should be doing', why do we have articles such as, say, International reaction to the 2008 Zimbabwean presidential election, which is exactly that, and which we have been doing on English Wikipedia for over a decade? Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 17:55, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Zimbabwe example doesn't feature a "Denounced" or "Supported" listing such as you have introduced. Acousmana (talk) 19:48, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
PS: Sorry if I've not been clear when I used the word 'category'; I didn't mean a category on Wikipedia, I meant a set of related items in general, in this case a set of statements made by members of a party about an event. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 17:59, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I didn't write this article in order to 'lend credence to this conspiratorial nonsense'; quite obviously that would violate WP:FRINGE. I'm not talking about the allegations themselves, I'm talking about the reactions of fellow Republican Party members towards the claims made by their 2020 presidential nominee. Moreover, the article says explicitly in many places that the expert consensus is that there is no evidence of large-scale electoral fraud and that Biden won the election, and almost all sources cited explicitly say that as well; I've selected all my sources very carefully and I deleted any unreliable sources such as Twitter, Fox News and NY Post. This article is about whether Republican Party members go along or do not go along with Trump's claims, and whether he should concede defeat or not. Bilorv has a point that it may sometimes be difficult to put some people in one camp or the other; MitchMcConnell was removed from supporters and Melania Trump and Jared Kushner from denouncers for that reason, because their positions are more nuanced, and I have explained them in the Background section. Nevertheless, I maintain that there are two pretty distinguishable camps inside the GOP right now, as quality news agencies have demonstrated. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 17:01, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
but isn't the act of cataloging "reactions of fellow Republican Party members," and then framing it the way you have, essentially WP:OR? Acousmana (talk) 17:13, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
No, because I'm not the one doing the framing, it's the U.S. major quality news networks (and some foreign such as The Guardian and BBC) who have framed this as a conflict inside the Republican Party about their presidential nominee's claims that is being fought out in the open. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 17:55, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
setting out a "false dichotomy of "Denounced" or "Supported"" (per Bilorv above) is very much you imposing a frame. Acousmana (talk) 19:48, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I think there is a potentially a biased reason or a misunderstanding of original research for why this would be deleted. It is a very interesting topic which has been widely reported in the media. Plus it now includes all reactions (denounce and support). Definitely against deleting. Just Piping In (talk) 18:15, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
no bias, but there very clear WP:SYN issues (tons of Wikipedia have similar problem, someone picks a random topic, with a name of their choosing, no discussion on its merits or notability, they impose their own frame, and string a bunch of refs together, that's what Wikipedia is now, plenty of examples). Acousmana (talk) 19:45, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment This article should be reframed as an article about Trump's allegations of voter fraud. Trump's allegations of voter fraud in the election is a notable topic. Even "fringe" topics or conspiracies can be notable if they have heavy media coverage. However, the listing of Republicans that support or oppose his claims is not notable and is more WP:OR or WP:SYN. Natg 19 (talk) 18:30, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
yes, if the "fraud" matter has to be covered in the encyclopedia, focusing on that rather than noting how one or other Republican politician reacted is a better idea. But what would the title be?Acousmana (talk) 19:57, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think that's a good idea, mostly for navigational reasons. As I said below, I think that merging it to more general articles or by expanding it with reactions from other groups would quickly make it Template:Very long. I suggest creating separate articles for other aspects of Trump's claims; this article is already quite substantial and I expect it to grow in the coming weeks. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 20:40, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
What happens when the entire Republican party (certainly not inevitably) accepts the results in a couple months? This article would be reduced to "The Republican party abandoned Donald Trump after he falsely alleged fraud in the 2020 election". Dylanvt (talk) 03:13, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This article will be notable for many years on how we determine the transfer of power. It does not 'lend credence to this conspiratorial nonsense' but rather preserves this story in our encyclopedia. We are not an opinion piece. The other merge suggestions make a very long article that will be hard to search.--Akrasia25 (talk) 19:01, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. As I've indicated on the talk page, it's fine for others to write an article about the fraud claims themselves, or about how Democrats, or foreign politicians, or election experts etc. have reacted / are reacting to the fraud claims. But if we all merge that together into one big article, it will likely soon get a Template:Very long. If 'Republican reactions' is somehow too specific, despite being a clearly established phenomenon in reliable sources, then I would like to know why we do have dozens of articles titled 'International/National/Domestic/Media reactions/responses to [event]' in Category:Reactions to 2010s events, why it's fine to have articles in the Category:Responses to the COVID-19 pandemic that start with the adjectives 'Medical', 'Military', 'Political' and 'Scientific and technical', and why we do have Democratic and liberal support for John McCain in 2008, Democratic response to 2006 State of the Union address, List of Democrats who opposed the Hillary Clinton 2016 presidential campaign, List of Republicans who opposed the Donald Trump 2016 presidential campaign, List of Republicans who oppose the Donald Trump 2020 presidential campaign, and List of former Trump administration officials who endorsed Joe Biden. Per WP:OTHER, we should review the legitimacy of those articles as well then. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 20:08, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment This is actually a very interesting topic and one that is definitely notable. Keeping a record of what the Republicans’ reaction to this election was is not a bad idea, since a fraction of the party members have supported Trump. But I would suggest expanding it to include reactions by Democrats, courts and election campaigns to make it neutral. That way it would sound less like a conspiracy. I would have suggested merging it to the main article but it's perhaps too long to be included there as a subsection. Keivan.fTalk 19:36, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for agreeing with the notability. In my response to Akrasia25 above, I said that I think that merging it to more general articles or by expanding it with reactions from other groups would quickly make it Template:Very long. I suggest creating separate articles for other aspects of Trump's claims; this article is already quite substantial and I expect it to grow in the coming weeks. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 20:26, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep As long as the article makes clear that Trump's claims are false, it should stay. While a conspiracy theory like this would usually be too fringe to have a wiki article, when it is being espoused by the president I believe it becomes notable enough. I also expect this situation to develop as inauguration day approaches. Colin dm (talk) 19:58, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Everywhere in the article, from the intro above to the sources below, it states that the expert consensus is that there is no evidence at all of large-scale electoral fraud. Only those Republicans who say they believe the claims are sometimes quoted or referred to as expressing an opinion; it is never presented as a fact. Only reliable sources have been used and will be used for this article; unreliable sources have been and will be removed. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 20:22, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I oppose deletion as a US president claiming that a presidential election was essentially rigged is incredibly notable and reactions to such a claim are also incredibly notable (even if the claims of fraud are blatantly false). This article does need some clean-up though, since there are minor grammar, spelling, and formatting errors. Perhaps we should call on members of Wikipedia's political projects to assist in this effort. I also would not oppose expanding the article from "Republican reactions to Donald Trump's claims of 2020 election fraud" to "Reactions to Donald Trump's claims of 2020 election fraud" so reactions of other notable national and international figures could be included. Mt.FijiBoiz (talk) 21:30, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but rewrite and expand into a broader article on Reactions to Donald Trump's claims of 2020 election fraud (open to a better title). While I'm not in love with the idea of a 'reactions to reactions to X' article (which is what this ultimately is), in this case Trump's comments are so notable and attracted such comment that I agree reactions to them can justify a separate article. I don't think there's any need though to limit this article to Republican reactions, and that seems to have an implicit POV to it. I think it would be best to expand this into an article describing all major reactions by notable figures to Trump's comments, positive and negative. Robofish (talk) 23:33, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Although I encourage people to write other separate articles about Trump's fraud claims, I think the Republican aspect of it merits its own article instead of being subsumed in a larger article. Not only for navigational reasons to avoid making the article too long (Template:Very long), but because of how important it is to document how specifically Republicans react to the claims: it's their own presidential nominee. They collectively chose Trump to run for re-election, but some now strongly believe he has not been re-elected (which is true) and denounce his claims of electoral fraud which 'steals' his second term, call on him to respect the process and/or concede his loss, while some congratulate Biden/Harris on their victory; other Republicans however go along with his fraud claims. This is a unique historical situation for the Republican Party and therefore interesting and relevant to document in a separate article. Personally, I don't think adding the reactions of Democrats (or Independents) would be very interesting here; you can expect 99% of them to reject the fraud claims, denounce Trump for it and urge him to accept his loss; that's obvious coming from electoral opponents and wouldn't add much. A separate article on the claims themselves, however, and the reactions of electoral experts, scholars/scientists, media, commentators, business and interest groups who don't necessarily represent either party, is very well worth writing. But I'm not personally interested in writing that; my time and energy is limited, and I'm focused on making this a proper article, and I'm happy to leave it to other Wikipedians to write that one. Note also that there is already a separate article for International reactions to the 2020 United States presidential election, and that's also already quite long. So there is no compelling reason to lump everything together in one big article if that makes it too long and complex, and if separate articles addressing the same subject from various relevant perspectives suffice. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 00:07, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
length is not the issue - the word count is not high - size is, the formatting is bumping up the kB size, it doesn't know if it's a list or an article, additional content to broaden scope could be added easily. Acousmana (talk) 09:07, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep An important article, but it should, as mentioned above, be moved because the current title is inappropriate.--Sakiv (talk) 07:22, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There are so many solid sources that hinge on the significance of the relatively binary position fellow party members to Trump must inevitably take. It would be far to monstrous in size were this into something that also encompassed other political party reactions. In response to the claim that this article becomes insignificant when party members are forced to accept the results of fraud investigations: I think that the initial reaction is still relevant because it could potentially become a record of a turning point in these people's careers. An article such as this will then become a valuable resource in rediscovering the sources that logged the early reactions preceding investigation and any potential evidence. Literalkoala (talk) 07:58, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment on renaming: @Acousmana: I disagree with your unilateral move to rename the article to "Republican reactions to Donald Trump's refusal to concede 2020 election" without reaching consensus with the rest of us here. Refusal to concede an election is an entirely different thing than claiming ahead of an election, during an election, and in the aftermath of an election that there is going to be, is or was electoral fraud. This article is about the Republican reactions to what their party's nominee has been claiming from the first moment that Trump alleged that there was going to be fraud on April 7, 2020, with a focus on his November 5 speech that fraud was going on as he was speaking. His refusal to concede after almost all major US news networks called the election on November 7 is a related but different issue. You have not obtained any consent from us here to rename the page as you have done. Many different titles have been suggested here and on the talk page, including:
  1. Donald Trump's claims of 2020 election fraud
  2. Reactions to the 2020 United States presidential election
  3. Donald Trump's challenge to the results of the 2020 United States Presidential election
  4. Reactions to Donald Trump's claims of 2020 election fraud
  5. Claims of election fraud in the 2020 United States presidential election
None of those comes even close to "Republican reactions to Donald Trump's refusal to concede 2020 election". Saying it is more 'neutral' by referring to this Guardian video is not sufficient. I think you really have to justify such a move and cannot do it unilaterally. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 12:48, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
refusal to concede is central to the invention of this concoction, using 'fraud' in the title allows suggestion of something that is incontestable - there is no fraud. The Guardian item provides an example of possible naming convention that avoids use of the word 'fraud.' The guy refusing to concede is what this is all about. Acousmana (talk) 14:21, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree with Acousmana, this article is about support / opposition for Trump's arguments of election fraud, which frames his argument of why he is refusing to concede. There is no indication in the article itself that his fraud claims are true or have any merit. Using the word "fraud" in the title does not mean that Wikipedia is advocating or suggesting that there is fraud. I think this is clear as this article is titled "claims of 2020 election fraud" and also clearly stated in the lede: "Trump falsely claimed to have won the election, and made many claims of widespread fraud arising from postal voting, despite substantial evidence to the contrary." Natg 19 (talk) 18:33, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
"the title does not mean that Wikipedia is advocating or suggesting that there is fraud," correct, but it's the thin edge of the wedge, how long before you have folk editing the page and adding whatever ludicrous examples of "fraud" the Orange One digs up accompanied by ridiculous talk page debates about the validity of said claims? Acousmana (talk) 19:09, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
You don't have to worry about that. Important articles like this are always on multiple Wikipedians' watchlists and vandalism and baseless claims will quickly be removed. I've already done that several times in the past several days and sometimes other Wikipedians were ahead of me in reverting baseless claims. This is not a justification for removing the word 'fraud' from the title of the article, when that is very much part of the subject of the article. I'm sorry if you don't like the word being used just because someone somewhere with an internet connection may not understand what it means in connection to the word 'claims', and try to add nonsense (that we can easily and quickly revert). And yet again, just like Nat9 and many others have pointed out (and I will repeat once again): Everywhere in the article, from the intro above to the sources below, it states that the expert consensus is that there is no evidence at all of large-scale electoral fraud. Only those Republicans who say they believe the claims are sometimes quoted or referred to as expressing an opinion; it is never presented as a fact. We cannot counter misinformation without talking about it, and Wikipedia is a good place to do so. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 19:31, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
How do you all feel about this title instead? "Donald Trump's false accusations of fraud in the 2020 United States presidential elections"? --SansUT (talk | contributions) 20:12, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
it was originally a list, now it's a halfway house between list and article, based on the above responses, seems article is what people are leaning toward. Acousmana (talk) 20:28, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think there is any issue of the notability of the "fraud claims". They are definitely notable, but the article has just not been created yet, and the creator of this article instead framed his article as a "responses" article. We could split out some of the "background" information from this article to that article. Natg 19 (talk) 20:04, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I strongly support Natg 19's proposal. I've got my hands full on updating this article. While designing and writing this article, I expected other Wikipedians to write a separate article about the fraud claims themselves, with fact-check commentary from election experts why they are not true. I don't like it how some people appear to try and bend this article to suit that purpose. This article, separately, is notable enough on its own, namely Republicans' political attitudes to their own party's nominee's claims. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 09:11, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I oppose merging Stop the Steal with this article. Stop the Steal is a citizens/voters movement that has little to do with the Republican Party's internal dynamics, especially its prominent leaders, many of whom strongly disagree with Trump and criticize him publicly, while Stop the Steal is 100% supportive of Trump. No, these are two very distinct phenomena that should not be merged. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 09:11, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's like non-personalities making response videos on YouTube or Instagram. No, this is not an important and notable topic. There are all kinds of things that matter here, and a lot of them may, in the long run, matter in an encyclopedic fashion, but a catalog of (ever-changing) "reactions" is not one of them. "But it's verified!" Yeah, and so is everything else. Drmies (talk) 01:28, 13 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

BLP with extremely weak sourcing. There is one decent source about Dunn, the Vice profile, but it doesn't really support the claim that Dunn is a prominent member of the movement rather than just someone they got to agree to an interview. This Wikipedia article generally overstates Dunn's influence on the movement compared to what the sources say—most of them seem to identify him simply as a member of the movement, or at most one of the few people in the movement willing to speak to press. The rest of the sourcing that mentions Dunn is quite poor—a video by the deprecated source WP:RSP#RT, a brief mention in a video by Reason TV, and some mentions in an NPR source about a single event that do not identify him as any sort of prominent figure in the movement. The News2Share source purporting to support that Dunn has collaborated with "left-wing groups... such as BLM" doesn't appear to even mention him. The ADL source also doesn't mention him.

I have read a lot of sources about the boogaloo movement while writing Boogaloo movement, and I don't believe any of them mentioned Dunn—if they did, it was a passing mention.

I think there's some possibility of a WP:COI here, given the description on File:Mike Dunn.jpg: "i was given this my mike dunn". I have also tagged that file for deletion because that contradicts the claim that it is the uploader's own work. GorillaWarfare (talk) 15:29, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, possibly speedily as there's not even a credible assertion of notability here.

  • Delete multiple chances were given for editors to find articles that cover the organization in detail, but the only references provided were routine news coverage where the organization is only mentioned as a byline. There have been multiple efforts to push this into mainspace or submitted, along with the related article about its founder. The main complaint pushed by the organization was that various schools either postponed or cancelled their final exams because of the Covid pandemic, so this could technically be covered in COVID-19_pandemic_in_India#Education It's also not the only organization that protested, but probably the most prominent one in the Pune University area.

  • Delete Some of Griffith's work (such as that associated with John F. Kennedy) seems to fall under fringe theorists issues. His work related to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints just seems to lack impact. Articles need to be built on secondary coverage of the subject, we are lacking that here. As mention John A. Tvednes' review of one of his works, which Griffith thinks is "shoddy" is the only review anyone seems to have come across. At the time the FARMS review functioned with multiple purposes, one of which was to warn Latter-day Saints against low quality, shoddy apologetics. Basically the review was trying to be comprehensive in a specific field, so it alone is not a good judge of importance or impact, Tvednes was quite clear the thought the work in question was not very worth while. True, you can become notable for down right mediocre and low quality work, but it takes more than one review to achieve that, and one review seems to be all we have. Griffith fails the general notability guidelines, he fails the notability guidelines for writers, and he fails the notability guidelines by a huge margin for academics. When your Amazon bio is mentioning you got a paper as an undergraduate published you clearly have not published works with academic impact. I was the original creator of this article, and the one who included the review that Griffith himself called "shoddy", which per the review is a better word for some of Griffith's work. I have since 2009 come to better understand Wikipedia notability guidelines, and in this case have to agree that Griffith is not notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:20, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep. As was noted in the previous deletion discussion, the topic is notable, and any extended discussion is beyond the scope of the list article—although a list would not be beyond the scope of this one. The length of time that the article has needed significant work is not really the point: there is no time limit to improve articles, and we don't delete articles on notable topics merely because nobody has taken the time and effort to improve them significantly. I agree that it's written much like an essay, but that's a reason to improve the article, not to delete it. As long as the article is there, there is impetus for editors with knowledge of the topic to work on it. If we delete it, we merely hide the evidence that there was a neglected topic in the first place. P Aculeius (talk) 13:29, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Lowenstein is a pretty notable firm in the American legal world IMHO. For example, a Google News search shows quite a few recent articles about cases they are handling and attorneys that are joining or leaving the firm.[1] Likewise, Law360 reports 1,631 articles that reference them and 1,201 cases that have been covered in the media that they are in some way associated with.[2] That said, I agree that the article, as written is not sufficient to merit inclusion in Wikipedia. My point is only to say that I think this is an article that could certainly meet the notability requirement. So I favor keeping and either adding some templates regarding notability and lack of sources or, at most, moving the page to draft and letting someone else work on improving it. Just my 2 cents.

  • Delete Vague lists of links are not helpful - we know the firm exists, what we need are references that meet the criteria for establishing notability. The criteria for establishing notability for companies/organizations as per WP:NCORP is for multiple sources (at least two) of significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. None of the references in the article meet the criteria and having searched I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria. Topic fails GNG/WP:NCORP.

  • Keep - I respectfully disagree with DGG. Based on the notable lawyers in the firm, and its WP:SIGCOV, it easy passes my standards for law firms. Bearian (talk) 21:13, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment WP:NCORP is the applicable guideline here, but it was not written with law firms specifically in mind, so we need to find analogies in using its criteria. According to NCORP, routine articles bout staff changes are not usable sources for notability, so I think that applies to the sources about lawyers leavingor entering the firm. Routine articles about the routine business of sales to X Y & Z or about what non-notable customers a firm has does not meet NCoRP, so articles about cases dod not count either unless the cases are notable in the Wikipedia sense. The argument that the firm is important is the argument I would use in advocating replacing the GNG guidelines by rational criteria, but , though I keep trying, it does not have consensus or seem likely to. What we've been doing instead is modifying the aceptable sources to yield some degree of rationality or conformity with the RW conception of notability--NCORP has been a particularly succesful effort in this direction.

  • The source is a compilation of diversity programs at "the country's top law firms". This naturally includes information supplied by those companies. The content establishes notability because there is editorial content, oversight and selection. It is rich in detail and so quite suitable for our purpose. Of course, their diversity program is just one aspect but it's easy to find other details such as this – an account of an acquisition that didn't go well. Such sources indicate that the firm is substantial and that there's plenty to find if you will only just look. And it's the nominator's job to do a detailed source search, not mine. My !vote stands.

@Ҥ: That Forbes blog piece (admittedly written by staff) is 140 words (not a lot, it would fit in a tweet). It has no journalistic content, probably relying 100% on a short email exchange or phone call.

The two Roanoke articles are local news, obviously biased to prop up a local company. If local media can be relied on to establish notability, we'd have 20 articles for every town with its own newspaper.

  • Delete Lots of WP:PUFF for a BLP article. It seems to be mostly company and is WP:PROMO at best. Of the 13 references, 15 are invalid, company references that are announcement, PR of some kind. The [18] is a dependent source, an interview. The ref is a dud. Doing a search a found coverage related to his position. No real secondary sources were discovered. Looking at the sources provided above:
Fails WP:BIO, WP:SIGCOV. No in-depth coverage. All PR in one way or another. scope_creepTalk 09:10, 11 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There's nothing in Fortune that required Dan Larimer's input, expect maybe to confirm his age. Not even his "smiling" picture.
"Inside the Chaotic Launch of a $4 Billion Crypto Project" is from the Wall Street Journal and there's nothing that suggests that it's based off an announcement or press-release. From the article: "Three-hour conference call at EOS reveals tensions among developers", "But infighting among the software’s fragmented developers shows it still has a way to go before the platform lives up to the hype", and "Block.one couldn’t be reached for comment."
The source that you claimed was "deprecated" is by a Forbes staff writer not "contributor" if that was what you were thinking. A source doesn't lose independence because they contacted the subject and included a quote. Ҥ (talk) 14:35, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Ҥ: how can that Forbes source be reputable? How is it in-depth? I asked you above. --Ysangkok (talk) 16:32, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I see no major issue with it. It is more than a mention and I think it helps. See WP:BASIC "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability" Ҥ (talk) 04:35, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I'm at a little bit of a loss how to close this without super!voting, as the discussion requires looking at the articles and the sources. I would agree notability hinges on the local pieces, the Forbes piece, and the WSJ piece. The local pieces are just that, per scope creep. The Forbes piece is staff written, but it is very short, providing little in-depth coverage. The question is about the Wall Street Journal. It is also by a staff writer, and I'm having difficulty classifying it as strictly a PR piece. However, I can't access the whole article, but from what I can see it doesn't seem to contain much information about Larimer, rather about the project. For those who have access, how much information is there about the topic at hand, that could be used to create encyclopedic content about Larimer? 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 15:54, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
78.26 I have access to the whole article, and you could get to it through ProQuest via the Wikipedia Libraries bundle. All the coverage I see of Larimer in the article is Investors pumped some $4 billion into EOS in a sale of digital tokens that ended this month. In a promotional video for its initial coin offering, Dan Larimer, Block.one’s chief technology officer, called EOS a “blockchain technology that can support real-world use cases serving millions of users." Cheers, Eddie891 Talk Work 18:04, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete, most source analysis per 78.26, as I mention above the WSJ article isn't SIGCOV of Larimer himself, and has minimal indication of being of use about writing an encyclopedic article on Larimer. It's mostly about EOS.IO, I'd say. Eddie891 Talk Work 18:08, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete - he's almost notable, but currently the WP:V information we have about him is of the "X did Y" routine variety. The Roanoke Times piece is a RS, and although it has some useful bits of information that could be used it is a local-interest story, more about bitcoin phenomonem than Larimer. The Forbes piece is the best we have, and the sum total of what we have isn't really enough to create an encyclopedic NPOV article, just a resume. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 18:16, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Yes, I could have said draftify if I were feeling generous (which I'm not), so as to give the creating editor the chance to yada yada... but I really hate it when people just publish stuff like this — a single-sentence stub with no punctuation, even, let alone any meaningful content or context, not to mention fancy stuff like references — and leave it for others to do the hard work of justifying why it should be kept. We don't even know if 'Lakhan Pasi' is a maharaja, a character in a Bollywood film, or the best mate of the creator's nephew! Fails on every. single. policy point, in other words.

While there's plenty of coverage of the book, the coverage of the author is incidental to that of the book, so I'm not seeing GNG.

These are multiple national junior handball teams. There does not appear to be a notability guideline within sports notability guidelines for handball, and there does not appear to be a special notability guideline for teams, so general notability guidelines are the only guidelines that are applicable. The sources to these articles do not amount to independent significant coverage, so the teams do not appear to be notable.

You see the handball youth teams are in the same prominence as football. If you don't questions all youth national teams of all team sports I think this is again an attack of some User of the USA against handball because they don't know it better. So please stop AFD handball articles if you don't know the significant of the sport. I also don't put AFD's one various American football articles because I never heard of them. Malo95 (talk) 07:34, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep/merge I expect that there's more coverage to be found in places such as "The Ocho" but if I dip into that I'm more more likely to start writing about sports that I understand, such as chess boxing, death diving or stone skipping. As notability is a guideline which counsels the use of common sense, let's try that instead.
Handball is clearly a respectable, organised sport and it appears to be quite popular in countries such as Croatia. Such sports are obviously divided into different classes such as women/junior and it would not be neutral to focus on only some of them, such as adult men. The pages seem to have have constructed in a systematic, tabular fashion and that seems reasonably sensible. What's missing is an umbrella article such as Croatian handball or Handball in Croatia which will provide some context and prose to explain the various tables.
The most applicable policy here seems to be WP:IMPERFECT which explains that "Perfection is not required: Wikipedia is a work in progress. Collaborative editing means that incomplete or poorly written first drafts can evolve over time into excellent articles. Even poor articles, if they can be improved, are welcome. For instance, one person may start an article with an overview of a subject or a few random facts." We still seem to be at the "few random facts" stage of development and so more time is needed. Deletion is not appropriate per WP:ATD, "If editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page."

  • Comment With little research I found in a few minutes many sources for the Croatian, Hungarian and Icelandic teams. I've add them to the articles. In the evening I'll add sources for the other teams. I found many sources so far. For me it looks like all junoir handball teams will pass GNG. Malo95 (talk) 09:33, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep I only looked at Iceland and found ample coverage of its various junior handball teams.[31][32][33][34][35]. Were any attempts made to look for sources, per WP:BEFORE, before the articles were nominated for deletation? As all of the teams nominated are from non-english speaking countries, a search in news articles in their own language should be conducted to prevent WP:BIAS. Alvaldi (talk) 09:48, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep of course I have create these articles as a simple entries ok, there is a lack of some sources I agree, for exm players, coaches ext.. I will add it by time, but remember these articles are new and need some patient for development hopefully to reach a positive consensus.

  • Comment: This feels to me like it would be best served by closing this as no consensus (with no prejudice against re-nominating), and then having a discussion about the relative notability of men's handball / women's handball / men's junior handball / women's junior handball teams, from different countries. Having it in AfD makes participants feel like there's a ticking clock, which is not necessarily conducive to a nuanced discussion. — Toughpigs (talk) 20:37, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'd support that. There should really be a clause in WP:NSPORT about it. Currently all it has is the thing about players of Gaelic games that are handballers. Which clearly isn't adequate. --Adamant1 (talk) 22:26, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose mass nom: A team which has competed in the Youth Olympics and has won medals has much different notability concerns than a team that has never placed higher than 10th in their represpective competitions. No prejudice to re-nomming them individually. Jumpytoo Talk 01:37, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep (procedural), 14 articles nominated in one bundle is kind of stretching it, ie. say minimum of 90mins for editors to look for references, although some editors above have apparently easily found sources pretty quickly for some of the articles, pointing to a lack of WP:BEFORE? (as does noms statement - "The sources to these articles do not amount to .." - so, did they look for others?); a couple of points: there are around 27mill registered players around the world with most players in europe (see here) so some of their teams might warrant an article? most national sports teams appear to be wikinotable, these articles are, however, dealing with junior teams, in the main, junior teams even at the national level do not appear to be deemed wikinotable (see only around 1000(?) articles at junior national team category), but just may need more editors to expand the no.(?). anyway, that will do:).

Rennick's index calls it a locale, the definition of which excludes places that are legally recognized populated places, which means a probably WP:GEOLAND failure. Topos show a between 1-5 houses at the area, depending on how large of an area around the name you assume is Jolly. Newspapers.com brings up a couple mentions of Jolly as a local landmark (such as something being three miles north of Jolly), but I've found nothing either there or on Google books suggesting there was a legally recognized community here.

All of those opining for deletion have cited a secondary notability guideline, two of which simply redirect to the top of the guideline page, without being more specific, and none have addressed the sources presented and whether or not the subject meets the General notability guideline. Ultimately, if subjects meet the GNG, it is not necessary for them to also meet a SNG.

Article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:NORG / WP:NSCHOOL. Sources in article and WP:BEFORE are not WP:IS WP:RS with WP:SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and in depth. Article is mainly unsourced WP:OR and is inappropriate to merge.   // Timothy :: talk  10:21, 1 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The article from Tahoe Daily Tribune currently cited in the page, about the school winning the College Board AP Computer Science Female Diversity Award, certainly qualifies as WP:RS and it provides detailed and in-depth coverage of the subject. There is lots of of the coverage of the school in the same newspaper, as GNews searching shows. One can argue that one needs other sources, but they do exist as well, e.g. [44][45],[46], [47], [48], for example. There was also a Master's thesis at SUNY Oneonta in 2005 about the school [49], which I think counts for something. Overall there seems to be enough here to pass WP:GNG.

  • Keep. Meets notability guidelines. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:01, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete All the sources seem to be trivial local coverage of things that don't pass either WP:GNG or WP:NORG. For instance trivial stuff about their booster club or them closing down temporarily due to the bad air quality from fires in the area. Both of which are pretty WP:MILL. The master thesis doesn't work for notability either, because it's not a peer reviewed journal or anything else that would provide editorial oversight. Plus, it only mentions the school in extreme passing anyway. Ultimately, nothing here qualifies as in-depth or notable, and at the end of the day this is a pretty average (or below average) school that is going about it's day to day business. like almost every other school out there. Wikipedia isn't a directory and that's literally all this is. --Adamant1 (talk) 06:00, 7 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You know both those are primary sources right? --Adamant1 (talk) 06:53, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Nevada Education Bulletin is by the Nevada department of Education. In no way is that one step removed. --Adamant1 (talk) 08:11, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
If you don't mind me asking, which sources make it "easily" meet WP:GNG? --Adamant1 (talk) 04:52, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
