- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was keep. The Keep arguments are weak here but they are the consensus and I see no support for Deletion other than the proposal by the nominator.

Unrepresented minor political party lacking "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject" required by WP:ORGCRIT. Has has no secondary sources since creation nearly two decades ago. AusLondonder (talk) 10:33, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

- Keep - The party was represented in the national government in 1991 (this is referenced in the Garga Haman Adji article). (Here it says ADD later changed name to ANDP, albeit I don't see this backed up elsewhere for now.) --Soman (talk) 23:15, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep as the party has been represented in the national parliament, it is generally notable. --扱. し. 侍. (talk) 13:11, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
- That's not right. Garga Haman Adji was a member of the party for one year while a minister during a transition from dictatorship. He was never elected to parliament. AusLondonder (talk) 14:01, 8 March 2024 (UTC)
- Well, a political party represented in national government. That should be an easy pass. --Soman (talk) 23:50, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

- "Keep both" While the useful template appears in all or most of articles on list, whereas a link to the article, also not as a "see also, is not. Comprehensive gathering of information good for understanding the locks and weirs system plus in quick overview & other additional information, but Wikipedia is built on articles, NOT templates, (which are supplementary) and that is what appears in a search, as it should. Djflem (talk) 16:23, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
- redirect to {{Lee Navigation Route Map}} in Lee Navigation, which is a far better presentation of the same information. Mangoe (talk) 03:37, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- Merge/redirect Perhaps the list should be incorporated into one of those articles, but I don't see a need for this as a third page. Reywas92Talk 14:44, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- An idea may be to keep this and merge and redirect the listed wikilinked articles into this one. It could be that many of the linked locks/weirs do not fulfil current notability criteria for separate pages. Rupples (talk) 04:43, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

We need topics like this from Zimbabwe. Sourcing will be limited to retrospects such as the ones already in the article, but they are bit thin, especially the Sunday Mail.

- Weak delete – I understand the limitations that exist in finding good sources about African football, but the article itself doesn't add anything. A list of Zimbabwean football clubs, based on the source "Zimbabwe's football cemetery" for example, would be more appropriate. Svartner (talk) 22:39, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

- Keep Poor article, notable football club. This is routine coverage from their 1993 season, showing there's also more out there - also tells us which stadium they played in. This article on an old player notes he was their coach. This article is an interview with a player who talked about how he got them promoted to the first division. I can't read this article due to a paywall but there's at least a mention there. Via Google books, in 1991, Horizon wrote an article about how Shu-Shine were promoted, about their first game, and about their sponsorship, but I can't get the link to work. There's enough here for a stub article, and it's at least implied that this team got pre-internet coverage in the early 1990s. SportingFlyer T·C 21:40, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- Note: this was closed as a redirect by a non-administrator who reverted their close when I asked for this to be draftifyed, it appears as if it is still a redirect. SportingFlyer T·C 21:41, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- Not implying an answer to this question about those sources, but as a side note the criteria isn't that there are facts that can be pieced together from numerous places to create the start of an article. It's that there is in depth coverage of the subject in a couple of articles. (maybe one would be enough) Sincerely, North8000 (talk) 22:29, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- I'm aware. The interview with Tavaka Gumbo clearly talks about the club's glory years. I can only access a small part of the Horizon article, but it also clearly talks about the club from the time they were in the top flight, including a page header discussing their promotion. I think WP:GNG is likely satisfied on those alone. The routine coverage also demonstrates this was a league - the most important in the country! - which would have been covered in newspapers during the time Shu-Shine were in the top flight. Top flight teams are generally but not necessarily always notable. This one seems like it has been significantly covered even though it would have been all pre-internet. SportingFlyer T·C 22:50, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

- Keep. It is basically guaranteed that in any country with substantial media like Zimbabwe (dozens of different newspapers), top-tier teams in the country's most prominent sport and league will receive significant coverage. We do not have access to sources of the time; but SportingFlyer has still managed to perform a decent expansion of the article with modern-day sources, which only further indicates more sources that exist from the past.

Fails WP:GNG and WP:NPROF. The only possible claim of notability is via the Atlantis theory. But it barely seems influential enough to satisfy NPROF#1, as he is not a professional historian and the Antiquity article has only 19 citations according to the Google Scholar. It is also somewhat dubious whether his theory really motivated the excavations, since it is not discussed in the peer-reviewed articles, Refs. 7-9. In Wikipedia, his theory is covered by Atlantis location hypotheses#Andalusia, which seems like WP:DUE coverage. Jähmefyysikko (talk) 16:34, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Doesn't meet WP:MUSICBIO, WP:CREATIVE, WP:BIO or WP:GNG. I can find only passing mentions of him in reliable English and Hindi sources, nearly always in connection with his notable son Himesh Reshammiya. I did find this quote from him in a RS book, but that's effectively a WP:Primary source. He's worked with some notable people on some notable films, but on Wikipedia notability is not inherited. We could redirect to Himesh Reshammiya as an ATD, but I'm bringing it to AFD for discussion. Wikishovel (talk) 11:51, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

The result was Draftify. Sometimes reslitings can prompt a consensus as editors discuss the fate of an article. Just a note, do not strike out any "votes"/arguments unless the editor is a confirmed sockpuppet of a block-evading editor. Being an inexperienced editor, especially inexperienced with commenting at AFDs, doesn't warrant having ones opinion struck. Liz Read! Talk! 17:46, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

I can't find the specific guideline right now, but I remember somewhere seeing that although the interview itself is primary, the information the source often provides before the interview can be considered a secondary source.

- Delete: I agree FT is a solid source but the others are interviews or not in-depth. I searched for other sources but came up with the same. The Forbes article is also largely an interview and was written by a contributor rather than staff so is not a reliable source per WP:FORBESCON. S0091 (talk) 16:05, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep – FT is gold standard. Concurring with Significa_liberdade, an article containing an interview can be secondary in some sections. There is another staff article on Forbes Africa not included currently, which is sufficient. TLAtlak 13:27, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- Forbes Africa is not Forbes. Forbes just licenses their name. See this CJR article. S0091 (talk) 16:04, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- I know, hence why I said Forbes Africa. Is it not fair to presume they are generally reliable for now? TLAtlak 03:06, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
- The article has no named author just "Forbes Africa" which is always suspect and the only policies/standards they have are Advertising Terms & Conditions and Privacy. Compare that to FT which has a named author and a robust Editorial Code. That's not say Forbes Africa is not usable but it needs to be used with caution so a weak source.
- As for the content you have highlighted below, the portions that talk about what she wants and what her plans are emanating from her as she is the only person that can know her wants/plans so that's primary and mostly about the business rather than her. YSWARA closed last year which is largely the claim for notability given almost all the sources are in the context of her founding YSWARA. I did check for sources in the past year but only found this which is mostly about Africa's agri-business in general with little independent content about her. Maybe she can meet notability in the future but she doesn't currently. S0091 (talk) 17:19, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
- Essentially every news source has articles that are bylined directly as their publication name, so I don't know if it's fair to say Forbes Africa is not reliable without any discussion, such as Forbes India.
- The first, part of the third, and the fourth paragraph seem secondary enough to me. Even if most of her notability stems from YSWARA that isn't a 1E thing or WP:INHERIT. I'd say it's still a weakish keep from me. TLAtlak 01:12, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
- I know, hence why I said Forbes Africa. Is it not fair to presume they are generally reliable for now? TLAtlak 03:06, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
- @S0091 said Forbes Africa is not Forbes which I concur. But @I'm tla, it's obvious the article on Forbes Africa is in no way talking about the subject except mentioning her for YSWARA, her brand which seems not notable. All the Best! Otuọcha (talk) 01:53, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

- Comment: Even at some point, interviews per WP: INTERVIEW can serve as secondary source and per WP: COMMONSENSE, if and only if it's significant and thus, an indepth analysis for the subject. Some of the sources (per interview; if not all) in no way treats the subject solely and talked any information about the subject. How then, do it adds to notability. Example: a part of the article stated;
In 2012, Forbes considered her one of the 20 most influential young African women.
And looking at this source from Forbes, there were none like that. All the Best! Otuọcha (talk) 01:58, 16 March 2024 (UTC)- I agree with what you're saying about WP:INTERVIEW. We should also completely disregard the Forbes.com article as it's written by a contributor, per WP:FORBESCON, I also can't find where Forbes writes that she is
one of the 20 most influential young African women.
- But the Forbes Africa article contains good information about her work. She is not inheriting notability from the company (there is essentially more about what she is doing with Yswara than what Yswara itself is doing).
- I agree with what you're saying about WP:INTERVIEW. We should also completely disregard the Forbes.com article as it's written by a contributor, per WP:FORBESCON, I also can't find where Forbes writes that she is

Yswara, a luxury tea company based in Johannesburg, South Africa, was launched in 2012. Its founder and CEO, Swaady Martin-Leke, a national of Côte d’Ivoire, hand-selects the tea from the various African countries, to incorporate into her company’s collection of 23 varieties of tea. This curator of precious African teas wants to make her offering a prestigious product through educating customers on the quality and benefits of African teas, by creating an experience that includes African tea rituals, African-made tea paraphernalia and elegant packaging. Martin-Leke sources Yswara’s tea from South Africa, Malawi, Rwanda and Kenya with plans to source from Burundi, Cameroon, Madagascar, Malawi, Rwanda and Zimbabwe. All her staff are women and the suppliers must be 75% female-owned or managed. Martin-Leke is already shipping her luxury tea around the world via her online store and online partners like africacandy.com. |

- Draftify - Per Oaktree b, we are not at GNG yet, but close. Strictly speaking then, it is not a keep on the sources we have thus far, and I am hesitant to suggest any kind of IAR keep. But look at the title of the Le Monde article that (briefly) mentions her as a woman in business in Africa: "On doit toujours prouver qu’on est capables" - "We must always prove that we're capable" and somehow I think this rings true in Wikipedia biographies too, which skew white male. If she were an American businessman, I bet the sourcing would be there. I think we probably should have this article, and the encyclopaedia would be a little better for having it. I am not happy with deleting this, whilst recognising that we could do with another secondary source. The article is a good start, but there is a lot more that could be done to it. Some of the statements appear somewhat promotional (e.g. the way the Forbes interview is presented). !voting draftify, where it could be incubated further, but if that doesn't have consensus, I'd be weakly for keep. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 09:24, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- While I think a keep is fine, I think this draftify idea is a good closer and appropriately addresses the delete votes. This probably shouldn't be relisted again, and there's consensus that one source, FT, is strong, but as we need "multiple" sources, interviews can be iffy. TLAtlak 09:59, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Case of WP:BLP1E: "Being in the news does not in itself mean that someone should be the subject of a Wikipedia article". Per BLP1E we should avoid having articles on individuals that reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event.

- Oppose / Keep WP:RECENTISM is an essay about something that happens at wikipedia, not a deletion criteria or policy. Part of the essay even makes an argument about recentism being good. Ten year test is similarly just one way to measure that. There is clearly enough coverage to meet WP:Notability, which is an inclusion criteria. The exclusion criteria of WP:Notnews don't apply; this is not "original reporting" (it relies on other news reports as primary sources), and it's clearly neither "who's who" or "celebrity gossip and diary." The closest notnews exclusion would be "news reports." However, the news reports exclusion is specifically for being WP:ROUTINE information, while those being used are not. I would support merging to Criticism of Facebook#Downtime and outage as providing the appropriate level of coverage. However, I'm concerned that page has been tagged as "too long to read and navigate comfortably" since 2021. It should be cleaned up and possibly split into sub-articles before information is added. Darker Dreams (talk) 23:21, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
- But WP:NOTNEWS is policy. I do not understand how you think the policy does not apply, saying it is because the article
relies on other news reports as primary sources
. That is exactly why it does apply. And as you say, the article is built on primary sources, which is why it does not meet GNG either. Sources should be secondary for notability. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 23:31, 5 March 2024 (UTC)- I mistyped; I meant "it relies on other news reports not primary sources." Now, looking at WP:PRIMARY I see that "For Wikipedia's purposes, breaking news stories are also considered to be primary sources." (Which is a wikipedia-ism that I didn't realize before.) Though, in fairness to the stub-like nature of the article, it's done a pretty good job of limiting to verifiable facts without spinning into the problems of breaking news. Meanwhile, also policy is WP:BREAKING explicitly gives guidelines for handling breaking news which includes WP:DELAY (which we're too late for; already created) and WP:RAPID which is exactly this discussion. All of that said, I still think that merging would be appropriate - if the target for merge didn't need so much cleanup. Darker Dreams (talk) 00:15, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

- Fb may be considered more than a just a website, yesthe impact is wide spread given its global reach. The issue is every incident article worthy, is this one of such significance(not based of the number of news reports). Any outage of these types of companies should be based on the reason not the numbers reporting it, and then asked if it can be covered in better ways. This incident is minor and can be covered with just a passing note in the main article for now. Gnangarra 11:17, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

It is not the length of the outage that was significant, but its impact - not only Meta smartphone/web applications (FB, Messenger, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp, more?) were affected, but any third-party app or service using OpenID to provide a "Log in with Facebook" function so that users don't need to create a new account and password.

Wait a month or so, honestly.Merge with Criticism of Facebook; 0 signs of sustained coverage after two weeks. The article states that "impacts from the outage" are still being investigated, so we can't know for sure whether or not this event meets or will meet the "lasting effects" criteria or the ten year test. Additionally, since it's recent, we don't have any evidence that future coverage will be sustained or not. I wouldn't significantly oppose merging, though.

ObserveOwl (chit-chat • my doings) 11:12, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

- Flip that around: rushing to create the article isn't particularly constructive. If you think this may be notable one day (I don't, incidentally) then it can be draftified and worked on pending the arrival of secondary sources. That is the thrust of WP:TOOSOON also.

- Yes, I agree that rushing to create articles on current events that might not be notable isn't particularly constructive. However, once the page exists, rushing to delete isn't helpful either. Two months from now this discussion would be much clearer and the harm of having this page exist for two months while probably not being notable is negligible.

Sourcing currently in the article is one forum (MSE) thread, two blog-posts, one youtube video from a math popularizer, and one page that is hosted on a university website but is of unclear authorship, which describes this notation as "so young that one could conceive of it as still gestating in the womb and "new and as-yet-unaccepted by the general mathematics community". Google Scholar finds no hits for the topic (searching for both the title of the article and "'triangle notation' logarithm"). The PROD rationale "Does not appear to meet WP:GNG. No significant coverage found." certainly describes this sourcing; it was reverted by Kvng, while adding one of the two blog posts, which doesn't suggest the presence of sources of appropriate quality.

Fails GNG. Secondary sources lack significant coverage and fail to provide substantial information about the individual beyond routine mentions or mere references to their name. (fails WP:SIGCOV) It is evident that the examples of source citations in the article also fails the requirements. Moreover, the facts presented in the article, including the individual's activities, positions held, and awards received, do not pass the criterias of WP:NBLP guidelines and also, even with a little research, it becomes clear that these facts are not significant.

- Comment - There is actually a lot of information on this ride out there - the problem is that most of the ones that go the most in-depth are either primary (being published by/posted on actual official Disney owned platforms) or would not be considered a reliable source (Disney/Disney Park fan sites). I did find this article from the Los Angeles Times about a virtual reality re-creation of the ride to preserve it that was showcased a decade ago, which also discusses the original ride as well a bit more in-depth than the current LA Times article being used as a source in the article. There are also a number of books out there that have a paragraph or two describing/discussing it. While most of them fall along the lines of the many "unofficial Disney park guides" style book, there was also this one that seems a bit more promising. Though, I'm also not sure if any of them actually have enough on the ride to be considered significant coverage. I'm currently leaning towards a merge to Tomorrowland (Disney Parks) (or any other more appropriate target if someone has a better recommendation), but as this one is a bit on the edge for me on whether or not it pass the WP:GNG, I'll hold off on a formal recommendation for now, to see if anyone else has any luck finding anything more substantial than what I found in my own searches.

- Keep: There are five pages on "Adventure Thru Inner Space" in the book The Disneyland Story: The Unofficial Guide to the Evolution of Walt Disney's Dream (2014), an independent published source. There are two pages on the attraction in the book The Disneyland Encyclopedia (2017), also an unofficial and independent published source. There was also contemporary newspaper coverage when the attraction opened; I added references to two articles, including the syndicated "Monsanto Opens Attraction on the Atom at Disneyland".

Most of the relevant information on the Order-State of Burgundy is either not cited or comes from discussion board. The main citations are to discussion boards which are not considered Reliable sources and violate policies of No original research and Verifiability. Their are no reliable sources fo information I can find on it online for the topic. It appears to be related more to an online game "Hearts of Iron" Myotus (talk) 19:31, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bilateral relations, History, Military, Geography, Belgium, France, and Germany. Skynxnex (talk) 21:23, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment - This was apparently a real plan. All the actual information on a state in Burgundy appears to come from a memoir by someone who was a doctor for Himmler, as stated in The Time article. Text of this memoir here. The Time article given is also just a summary of this as well. The Wallonien also says "His [Leon Degrelle's] purpose was actually historic: to make a great Burgundy with the southern part of Belgium and a part of northern France. His dream: to recreate the duchy of Charles the Bold before his death at Nancy in 1477." (this is all it seemingly says about Burgundy). The forum post appears to have used the memoir as a source but not everything in the forum appears to be in the memoir, at least the copy I could find. The unsourced paragraph in the background section (and every detail originally given about the state when the article was created) is entirely from the forum post as well. The name and maybe some details appear to have been made up from a Hearts of Iron mod, as it only appears to be called Burgundy in actual sources, and looking up the name given only gives results for HoI discussions and Polandball.
I'm not voting though, there could be things I'm missing.I will put a vote. StreetcarEnjoyer (talk) 01:19, 13 March 2024 (UTC)- Thanks for finding the memoir text and your commments! It still is concerning this is only from a memoir and that there are no actual official documents (or any other collaborating documents) supporting a plan for the creation of a Burgundian Free State. The book that is cited "The Wallonien" appears to by Richard Landwehr, Jean-Louis Roba, and Ray Merriam, has not undergone any academic review. It also concerns me that one of the authors, Richard Landwehr, his book 'Revolutionary Armies in the Modern Era: A Revisionist Approach' was reviewed in the academic journal, 'The American Historical Review' was described as "too flawed to be recommended as an undergraduate text" The reviews author, historian S.P. MacKenzie also describes Landwehr as an "extreme admirer [from] the fringes of the far-right." MacKenzie connects Landwehr with the contemporary Waffen-SS historical revisionism. (Brown, Howard (1998). "Untitled". The American Historical Review. volume: 103, Issue: 5, page: 1561)
- I still recommend deleting the page but I would support adding a section in Felix Kersten's page (Himmler's doctor) on the Burgundian Free State in reference to his memoir. Myotus (talk) 14:46, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
- I agree that there are definitely large swathes of the article that need to be addressed, and some that need to be outright deleted. That being said, while some of the evidence fronted in the article is shaky at best, there is likely a wealth of knowledge about this specific plan either lost to time (due to NS Germany's purge of sensitive documents) or floating about. If such is not to be the case, I agree with your proposal to add it to Felix Kersten's page, although moving it to the page referring to NS Germany's planned "Reserved Zone" in Eastern France may suffice. Nikolai Gennadievich Nazarov (talk) 06:25, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- We know very little about Himmler's plans, but according to this source, Burgundy apparently was supposed to be a "supranational Aryan state":

Nikolai Gennadievich Nazarov (talk) 06:25, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - Unless better sourcing is found, I don't think there's really enough to go on here. So far this is just seems like something Himmler brought up once to his doctor and that a memoir is the best source on this. If the plans were brought up in official documents or were approved by Hitler (which it would need to be to actually happen), you'd think there would be more talk or sources about it. The fact that most of the information about the state used in the article was sourced to a German alternative history forum post and that the name of the article seems to be taken from a game mod and not from real sources doesn't help. Also see Myotus's comment below mine. StreetcarEnjoyer (talk) 00:05, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - Himmler did have a plan to form an SS state in Burgundy, whether Hitler supported it is another matter, but it should be covered in an article. -- 2804:29B8:5183:100C:1CCC:1435:AF55:35B9 (talk) 03:25, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- The deletion request is not about whether Hitler supported it. It is about the lack of any documentation other than Felix Kersten's (Himmler's doctor) personal memoir (it is important to point out the several other claims in Kersten's memoir have been disputed), posts on a blog, and a dubious book by a discredited author. Myotus (talk) 15:50, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - It's most likely a real plan. If it is, we should improve the article with better sourcing, not scrap it altogether. 191.135.55.141 (talk) 18:02, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

To preface, I'm going off my observations from the first 2 sources in descending order. The third and fourth refs, "Journal of the United Service Institution of India" and "Selections from the records of the government of Punjab" are WP:RAJ era sources and thus not allowed. The last source seems to be merely a Google snapshot.
Here is what Hari Ram Gupta says of the battle: "Having failed at Peshawar, Sayyid Ahmad planned to seize Attock fort from the Sikhs. Its possession by him would automatically clear Hazara and Peshawar from the Sikhs, and it would open the gateway for the invasion of the Panjab. Khadi Khan of Hund secretly alerted the Sikh commander of the fort, and the plan fell through. Sayyid Ahmad, in anger attacked the village Haidru, and put to the sword all the inhabitants, both Hindus and Muslims. On hearing this news Hari Singh Nalwa suddenly appeared on the scene and massacred nearly three-fourths of Khalifa's Ghazis. Sayyid Ahmad managed to escape to the west of the Indus."
Rishi Singh says: "It appears that even when he seemed successful, Syed Ahmad began losing his control over the tribal leadership. Many tribal chiefs began betraying him. For instance, at the time of taking over the fort of Attock, Khadi Khan of Hund alerted the Sikh commander, Hari Singh Nalwa, who with his 20,000 men attacked Syed Ahmad’s forces and killed three-fourths of the Khalifa’s Ghazis".
I think this content would be better suited in the exploits and military campaigns of both Hari Singh Nalwa and Syed Ahmed Barelvi, I don't think the amount of coverage in both sources, which are small paragraphs, justifies an entire article, though I could be wrong. Southasianhistorian8 (talk) 15:53, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

- No opinion. I created this years ago when I was trying to tackle GSN originals that lacked articles. Admittedly, it does appear that there is unfortunately not very much out there in terms of secondary sourcing. On the other hand, while I do consider myself to be an inclusionist, I find it a bit hard to believe that a show that aired for multiple seasons on a national cable network lacks any or all notability to the point where it doesn't at least justify a short article documenting the show's existence. At this point, I find myself pretty disillusioned with some of this site's policies, so I'm not sure I'm in the best position to make a keep or delete vote here without a conflict of interest. With that said, I'll gladly let others decide the fate of this discussion. --Bcschneider53 (talk) 16:41, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
Delete: None of the cited sources provide anything close to SIGCOV. A listing in a TV guide, or a passing mention in a newspaper, do not provide any value in terms of notability.

- Redirect to List of programs broadcast by Game Show Network#Former original programming: I at least somewhat agree with the article creator that a multi-season show on a nationally-distributed service optimally should get the sufficient significant coverage to be deemed notable, but that's not a fait accompli, and the sourcing we do have here is thin enough that redirecting as an alternative to deletion is probably the best we can do. (For what it's worth, an earlier article on this show at That's the Question (U.S. game show) was deleted via PROD in 2015, which may explain why a program whose run coincided with an era when our notability standards in this topic area were much looser did not appear to have an article before 2018.)

The subject lacks substantial coverage in reputable third-party sources and fails to meet the criteria outlined in WP:MUSICBIO. The existing sources do not establish notability effectively. Additionally, the source from middleeasteye.net is an interview, and its reliability is questionable, infomigrants.net is not reliable, and the article from The Guardian seems to rely heavily on hearsay. A WP:BEFORE search yielded no additional reliable sources beyond those currently cited. GSS 💬 14:53, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Not noteworthy of an incident to have its own article- it appears to be a minor scuffle with minimal casualties, so the title including "Battle" seems to be a misnomer. From what I can tell, this event was the casus belli for a larger battle which is described here-[13] and per Surjit Singh Gandhi's book-[14].

This article seems to be about an imaginary event.

- Delete and SALT if necessary. I voted to delete in the 2020 AfD for this band and my reasoning is exactly the same now. They have indeed released several albums and played many shows, but the reliable music media simply has not noticed. And again, "shared the stage with prominent musicians" is irrelevant if it was at large festivals or if they were the cost-saving local opening act. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 02:42, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. I agree with Otuọcha and Doomsdayer: this band lacks significant coverage by multiple independent reliable sources (WP:GNG is not met); and it doesn't approach any of the alternative criteria at WP:NMUSIC. However, this is only the first recreation after deletion, which occurred over 4 years ago. I'm not sure this namespace is problematic enough to require WP:SALT. JFHJr (㊟) 17:00, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
