  • Jonathan Yaniv – Practically endorse, as the consensus here is clearly that there is no good evidence of notability, as many of the sources are considered to be unreliable; any restoration would (per SmokeyJoe) require sufficient reliable sources to be presented (e.g in WP:AFC). No consensus on turning this into a redirect, the key counterargument is that there is no evidence that a redirect would be useful here.

Jonathan Yaniv  (talk|edit|history|logs|links|watch) (XfD|restore)

Yaniv was not notable in 2015. However she got a notablity during gender transition and transgender activism. Her new name is Jessica Yaniv. Sharouser (talk) 15:37, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Wikipedia does not typically have biographies on people notable for a single event (WP:BLP1E) unless that event is extremely high profile. Merely getting in the news for a single controversy doesn't mean that somebody gets a Wikipedia article. The source you linked to is an opinion piece and therefore not reliable for anything other than the opinion of the person who wrote it. Hut 8.5 10:11, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
There was some disagreement at BLP/N regarding whether or not her case was worth mentioning at all, but I don't think any editor thought that her full name should be publicized at this time - so this seems like it would be sort of an end-run around that view. Moreover: I'm extremely skeptical that the name Jonathan would be a search term since it's not really something that is mentioned in mainstream reporting on this case. I understand that we sometimes use prior names when someone was well known under that name, but that wouldn't be the case here, and so that seems like it would be a unjustified violation of privacy.

Her previous name was appeared at Calgary Herald. calgaryherald --Sharouser (talk) 13:55, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This is anther opinion piece. MOS:CHANGEDNAME says that we can do this when someone was previously notable under a different name, but that's clearly not the case here. Nblund talk 14:08, 31 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Belle Delphine (talk|edit|history|logs|links|watch) (XfD|restore)

Belle Delphine is definitely notable enough for an article now. She wasn't earlier this month but is now. AdrianWikiEditor (talk) 07:00, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment not really sure what to do with this one - I don't think there's harm in allowing a draft to be written, but I also don't think it'll be accepted. SportingFlyer T·C
  • Keep deleted. We're not here to report on every gross publicity stunt somebody can think up, even if the news media wants to. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:16, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't particularly like the idea of covering this, but if there are multiple news sources, then there's notability.—S Marshall T/C 16:02, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Existence of coverage is a necessary, but not sufficient, condition. This fails WP:SUSTAINED and WP:BLP1E. Stuff like this is sensationalistic; somebody does it precisely because it's wild and flamboyant and will attract media attention. That doesn't make it worthy of an encyclopedia article. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:41, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Allow recreation. The deleted article fails to impress but the media coverage now has cultural commentary and analysis of some generic applicability which could, just barely, be used by a capable editor to create something we wouldn't be embarrassed to call an encyclopedia article. But this is tricky stuff. Haukur (talk) 00:13, 29 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm kind of relieved by the way this discussion is going but this might be a good place to mention that our ahegao article gets an average of 3000 hits per day lately and really could use some work. Or some deletion, if we don't have the sources for a decent article. Haukur (talk) 23:38, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse but Allow AFC Robert McClenon (talk) 02:26, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse the clear decision at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Belle Delphine, and keep deleted with prejudice for at least 6 months. The new sources, eg "Is Belle Delphine, a.k.a. Bathwater Gamer Girl, the Greatest Troll On the Internet?" are joke articles, not reputable sources, even if the publishers are usually accepted as reputable and reliable sources. 6 months is the standard time to leave a clear decision before allowing repeat challenges, such as what an AfC submission would amount to. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:54, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse Other media may co-operate in a job of self-promotion because they think the person amusing, and providing readable human interest stories is a perfect reasonable goal of even a very good newspaper. But we're an encyclopedia. There was a time, 15 years ago, where there was little good coverage of many aspects of popular culture unless we did it here, and this could justify presenting information on matters of no real interest. This has changed, and nothing of this nature will be lost to the world because we don't include it. DGG ( talk ) 07:46, 1 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse and salt. This has the potential to become an attack page.--WaltCip (talk) 16:44, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
