HighKing++ 11:11, 8 September 2023 (UTC) - Delete She is note a notable subject even for the limited media in which she appears. Not enough RS coverage of her own activities to merit an article. I vote to delete. Go4thProsper (talk) 16:16, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
- Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria, which says:
SourcesPeople are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.
- If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

The section about MeganPlays contains about 500 words. The book notes: "Megan Letter, previously known by her maiden name Leeds, started on YouTube in 2014 at university, posting videos of herself playing the life-simulation game The Sims. She earned around $400 a month, her YouTube success was modest and she wasn't earning enough to support herself full time (Zabasajja and Kharif, 2021). But by 2022, she was best known for her online name MeganPlays, a pink-purple-haired personality she created for role-playing on Roblox, the fastest-growing gaming platform for user-created games. ... In six years, earnings grew from $400 a month to a seven-figure influencer business, diversifying her YouTube channels, revenue streams and a venture into game design. She went from 240,000 subscribers (September 2018) to 1 million subscribers (September 2019) in just a year. She achieves some 40 million monthly views on her Roblox gaming channel alone (Stubbs, 2021). ... MeganPlays has a 90% female viewership, aged between 7–14 years. Most viewers are aged 9–10. Her content therefore matches the main demographic of Roblox (Sidhwani, 2021) and Letter has mastered the art of online fan engagement."

The article notes: "Letter is rare in that she’s an influencer, a gamer, and a developer, allowing her to cross-promote her products. “MeganPlays’s success is rooted in the fact that she spent time learning the ropes of effective content creation, such as tailoring the look and feel of her channel to a younger audience,” says Doron Nir, chief executive officer of StreamElements, which caters to video-content creators. “She diversified her focus to include game designing, and then combined these skills to launch a title that was well-received by both her own and the greater Roblox community.” ... She started making videos while studying fine arts at the University of Texas at Arlington, then began focusing on YouTube after graduation, playing Roblox games such as Adopt Me!, in which gamers can adopt pets."

The article notes: "Megan Letter is a Roblox superstar, who famously plays "Adopt Me" with her virtual pet unicorn, Honey. She has more than three million subscribers for her daily YouTube channel "Megan Plays." The 25-year-old influencer from Dallas has other YouTube channels and a merchandise line. She and her husband Zach also run their own studio where they developed the game "Overlook Bay.""
- Megan Leeds, who attended the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA), was covered in the UTA student newspaper The Shorthorn. From Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources#Student media: "given their local audience and lack of independence from their student body, student media does not contribute to notability for topics related to home institutions".

The article notes: "Megan Letter, UTA alumna and YouTuber, started her YouTube channel in her Vandergriff Hall dormitory making about $15 a month in 2014. But 3.6 million subscribers later, she’s now making more than a million annually. Letter’s main YouTube channel, “MeganPlays,” has gone through numerous changes from when she started as a college student studying graphic design. The channel mainly included "Roblox" content, a hub for games created by players, but she has pivoted to more vlog-style content since May with occasional "Roblox" videos."

- Keep. Death generally doesn't establish notability, but notability can become apparent upon death. There is a lot of coverage of this individual that appeared upon their death, not for their death but for their work. So I believe WP:BASIC is met.

Article is a quite promotional piece about a, erm, promoter of Welsh wrestling, though in reality is various lists e.g. of venues in Wales where wrestling has taken place, largely cited to the venues' webpages, or an uncited table of holders of the Weslh title.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
It is entirely possible that the subject of this article, 'nightlife', genuinely merits coverage in something approximating to an encyclopaedia. This random collection of badly-sourced stuff vaguely relating to the topic, as long as you don't think about it too closely, and as long as you limit the range of the article to the narrow confines of personal experience as a (rare?) Wikipedian who leaves their basement during the hours of darkness to socialise rather than doing actual research, isn't it. Accordingly, I propose that this abomination be deleted per WP:TNT, and suggest that anyone wishing to start from scratch does a little more investigation not just into the subject matter (which surely extends both culturally and chronologically way, way beyond this factoid-farm, and quite possibly back to the discovery of fire...), but into how to structure prose into something a reader might find vaguely informative, rather than brain-rot-inducing mush.

- Keep. This is not a Good Article, but it tries. Much of it is a section on 'Sociological research'. It cites a totally reliable academic article by David Grazian. The history section is significantly based on a PhD thesis. That's not terrible at all. As someone who has brought stuff to AfD and called for TNT, sorry, Andy, I don't see this being the case here. PS. The 'Regulation' seciton is meh. But seriously, "This random collection of badly-sourced stuff vaguely relating to the topic"? I don't think we are looking at the same articles, or perhaps our standards are different. What you wrote would apply to a lot of crappy lists in the popculture category, some of them even kept, sigh... but this is much better than that. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:46, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
- There's nothing wrong with Grazian as a source - for what he's writing about, which is an interesting discussion based around a very limited subset of what a general article on 'nightlife' ought to be about, in my opinion. The problem is that using his piece in the manner it has been reinforces the idea that 'nightlife' is somehow only found in the bars and nightclubs of the contemporary urban 'west'. This is essentially the same issue (or rather one of many issues) I have with Wikipedia popcult coverage. It isn't 'popular culture' in general, it is 'the popular culture of a subset of Wikipedia contributors', who in turn are a narrow subset of those who have (or have had) 'popular culture' - i.e. more or less everyone, living or dead. Systemic bias is inevitable in a project like en.Wikipedia, but our popcult coverage actively reinforces it, by encouraging the substitution of primary-source personal experience for sourced critical analysis. Not quite what's going on here with Grazian, where the problem isn't with the source so much as the narrow outlook of whoever chose to cite him. Maybe I'm asking too much of Wikipedia though: I long ago reached the conclusion that Wikipedia habitually bit off more than it could chew, article-topic-wise, and that some subjects - especially broad and ill-defined ones like this- would be better left to specialised sources, and that Wikipedia's attempts to be an encyclopaedia of everything get less and less effective as it broadens its scope way beyond subject matter a crowdsourced project can reasonably expect to do justice to. But then Wikipedia is what it is, it does what it does, and maybe I'd be better off just standing on the sidelines heckling, rather than trying to fix the structurally unfixable. AndyTheGrump (talk) 11:28, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
- This is just a start-class article. It is expected to be far from comprehensive. And it's on a broad topic, and we know how tough those are to write. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:48, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
The existence of this topic is in serious doubt. At Lebanon, the user Beshogur (talk · contribs) has repeatedly removed the coat of arms on the basis that the Constitution of Lebanon doesn't define one (whough the US constitution doesn't define the state symbols, either), and that the symbol was unsourced. The only reference in this stub is circular, and the source added in an August 24 revision at the main article includes fictional content.[1] –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 20:03, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

- @LaundryPizza03: thanks for doing this job. Beshogur (talk) 20:05, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: One thing I should like to note is that the announcement of the adoption of the Seal of the President of Lebanon, which is official and which includes this design, notes (in Arabic) that 'the arms were chosen because they historically represent the official symbol of the Lebanese Republic.' That's a pretty scant reference, but it does come from the Lebanese government itself, so it's worth taking note of it. Edit: The design was also præviously used on its own on the Presidency's website (it differs slightly, having a brown trunk, but the general blazon tracks, heraldically). Mnmazur (talk) 22:09, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- Another addition to the comment, I discussed this with other user as well. For US, if their coat of arms were adopted by the congress, which is, it makes it official. Beshogur (talk) 13:31, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- Note that a design of similar construction also appears on the embassy of Lebanon in Paris (on the door to the left). ― novov (t c) 11:29, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

- Weak keep - These arms have definitely been around a while; I have added a citation from a book, but they can also be found on the Lebanese embassy in Paris (see my comment above) and several vintage stamp/sticker collections (1, 2). Whether they have seen much usage beyond what’s been found is questionable though, so more investigation is probably needed. ― novov (t c) 12:27, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

- @Koavf: the "source" is ridiculous. 1973 source, not official basis whatsoever. Beshogur (talk) 16:25, 18 September 2023 (UTC)
- There are four sources. Are they all ridiculous? What do you mean about "not official basis"? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 00:26, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
- The sourcing is indeed extremely weak right now, and Beshogur is correct in stating that the first source is indeed not an official government publication. The second source (about the presidential seal which includes it) is though. The other two sources are regarding the more general cedar tree emblem, which probably sees more use and might be worth refocusing the page on.
- But it is (or at least was) clearly used in some capacity by the Lebanese government, contrary to the claims of it being a fictional device. And Lebanon wouldn't be the only country to use a symbol that is not officially legislated in some fashion. ― novov (t c) 00:43, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

An article about "a marketing phrase". Provides nothing in the way of evidence that the phrase has been the subject of significant coverage in WP:RS, and instead provides a potted history of routine rivalry between commercial rivals, during which the phrase seems to have been occasionally used. The article fails to demonstrate that the phrase was in any way of significance, despite the clear attempt to synthesise such significance through cherry-picking sources.

As always, journalists are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to show some evidence that their notability has been externally validated by sources other than their own employers — coverage about them, analysis about their work, properly sourced evidence that they've won or been nominated for notable journalism awards, etc. But as usual for bad articles about journalists, this is written like somebody just tried to paraphrase his staff profiles on the self-published websites of his own employers, cites absolutely no third-party sourcing independent of said staff profiles, and claims absolutely nothing about him that would be "inherently" notable without WP:GNG-worthy coverage to support it.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Merge with/into List of Israeli assassinations or List of targeted killings by Israel. This new article is the same scope and duplicative. Open to a discussion about whether List of targeted killings by Israel (to match the main article Targeted killing by Israel) or List of Israeli assassinations is the better merge target. My preference is for the former. Longhornsg (talk) 17:28, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- Query: How duplicative is the content? I'm sure there's some overlap, but there is also likely some grey area between targeted killing and assassination, and it's possible that these lists aggregate events that are described with one term or the other, but are not described as both in the sources, which could raise questions about how best to reconcile the content. How was the assessment that these lists are in fact duplicative reached (I haven't had time to go over it myself), and what is the extent? Iskandar323 (talk) 18:02, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- Just went through the lists, item by item, and there's about 80% overlap. The targeting killings list has a couple (eg Bahtini) that are not on the more comprehensive and inclusive assassination list, but I chalk that up to the outdated nature of the assassinations list, rather than a definitional or source-driven purposeful differentiation that would preclude their addition (for example, I would expect to see Iranian scientists as "assassinations," while Hamas military commanders as "targeted killings", but the lists make no such distinction). Open to other opinions, but from my perusal of both the targeted killings and assassinations lists, there's no clear rhyme or reason why an entry may be on one, or both). As assassinations are a subset of targeted killings, it may be easier just to fold everything on to the latter page. Longhornsg (talk) 18:28, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

Merge, provided that the merged page is moved to List of assassinations and targeted killings by Israel See https://academic.oup.com/book/4558/chapter/146658764 Selfstudier (talk) 18:44, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- There's a healthy academic and policy debate about assassinations and targeted killings. I would note that the opinion of Miller, a philosopher, does not reflect the consensus of international law and terrorism experts, who generally place assassinations as a subset of targeted killings. No reason to use the longer name, when we can use a more concise and inclusive term. Longhornsg (talk) 18:59, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- I don't think there is a consensus for this. As the Miller source also states:
"targeted killing needs to be distinguished from assassination, a practice that is typically unlawful."
Not minor. Iskandar323 (talk) 05:38, 15 September 2023 (UTC)- If anything, targeted killing is more like a subset of assassination that has been deemed somewhat legally permissible in certain circumstances, but still occupies a very grey area. Iskandar323 (talk) 05:40, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
who generally place assassinations as a subset of targeted killings
The sources given at Assassination#Targeted killing also suggest that the two are distinct so not only Miller.Selfstudier (talk) 15:41, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
- I don't think there is a consensus for this. As the Miller source also states:
- Based on the assessment of the overlap, I think I would also support a merge to List of Israeli assassinations alongside a retitling as List of assassinations and targeted killings by Israel, since I have to side with Miller in agreeing that
"Targeted killings and assassinations are closely related, but not identical, phenomena"
. The assassination of militant leaders might often fall under the definition of targeted killings, but there are also entries in these lists that it would be inappropriate to shoehorn into a 'targeted killing' definition. This includes, for example, the killing of Kamal Nasser, a politician and poet, as well as the assassination of Iranian nuclear scientists, i.e.: individuals who represent a somewhat hypothetical and very much indirect threat versus individuals who might be reasonably be construed as combatants. Iskandar323 (talk) 05:35, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
- Comment "Israeli assassinations" and "assassinations by Israel" are not the same thing. The first could be any assassination in Israel as well as assassinations carried out by Israeli individuals and authorities. The second is narrower and is about assassinations carried out by the Israeli authorities. I recommend going for the article title that best describes the killings to be included in the article/list scope. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 07:45, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

WP:BLP of an actor, not properly sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NACTOR. As always, actors are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to be shown to pass WP:GNG on their sourceability -- but this, as written, is sourced to a directory entry, a production photograph and a glancing namecheck of his existence, which is not enough.
It was also formerly a lot longer and listed a lot more (supporting) roles, but none of that content was sourced either, with the result that it recently got restubbed down to this -- but even just restoring the old content wouldn't actually fix the problem, because an actor's notability resides in his sourcing and not just in the ability to list roles in and of itself.
Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat (talk) 02:50, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

- NACTOR is not passed by listing roles, it's passed by the article showing a GNG-worthy volume of media coverage about him and the roles, and no role in any film is ever so "inherently" notable as to exempt its actor from having to be sourced properly. Bearcat (talk) 15:53, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- Weak keep Other than the the sources in the article, I'm seeing slashfilm.com, another one, TheThings, a paragraph in this from Hollywood Reporter, Express, Hello, and a lot more covering his leaving NCIS and his role in I Know What You Did Last Summer. Not the best sources, but add up to notability in my eyes. Rusalkii (talk) 21:30, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

Not sure the rest of the roles establish notability either. Bit parts. Oaktree b (talk) 13:43, 31 August 2023 (UTC)- The above exceptionally lazy !vote seems to have mixed up substantial and significant and has not bothered looking a any parts not mentioned here.

- I'm not familiar with his other works and sources used in the article are a photo and a movie list from the NYT, so they don't help notability. Unfamiliar isn't lazy I'm afraid. Oaktree b (talk) 14:34, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: It's more important to evaluate Rusalkii's sources and those in the article than what you think of him as an actor and the roles he's had. Does he meet NACTOR? Right now, there is no consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 03:33, 7 September 2023 (UTC)- It he's the lead character in the "What You Did Last Summer" movies, I suppose it's notable...

- Keep per WP:NACTOR, part of the WP:BIO SNG, meaning GNG is not required. Meets this SNG with significant roles in Prison Break, I Know What You Did Last Summer, I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, NCIS. —siroχo 06:57, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
- NACTOR does not exempt a person from having to pass GNG — the question of whether the roles are even significant enough to satisfy NACTOR in the first place requires said roles to be supported by GNG-worthy sourcing telling us the roles were significant, so NACTOR can never be passed by a person who isn't simultaneously passing GNG. Bearcat (talk) 04:44, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
- Please stop making up additional requirements that are not part of the SNGs. duffbeerforme (talk) 09:04, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
- I don't have to stop, because I never started. People routinely try to insert themselves, or outright hoax topics, into Wikipedia by falsely claiming passage of an SNG that they don't really pass in reality — for example, actor articles routinely try to puff up the significance of the subject's roles, as in "So-and-so is an actor best known for [non-speaking bit part]" — so it's been a standard consensus, routinely upheld at AFD for years, that passing an SNG is never just a matter of saying that the SNG is passed, and always depends on the quality and depth and volume of GNG-worthy sourcing that can or can't be brought to show that the claim to passing the SNG is true. Bearcat (talk) 12:13, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
- GNG does not override SNGs and nowhere in NACTOR does it say "GNG-worthy sourcing", whatever the fuck that means. Yes it does need to be properly verified but there is no need to simultaneously pass GNG in the SNG. If you want to get rid of this SNG then try do it elsewhere. Not that any of that matters here since we already have a pass of GNG with the coverage in the article at the moment. duffbeerforme (talk) 13:07, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, Dusti*Let's talk!* 17:15, 14 September 2023 (UTC)- Delete I still don't think the roles are notable enough for a stand-alone article, we have some sourcing, but it's not massive. Meeting BIO is fine (which I'm not seeing), but we need decent sourcing that talks about him, not a photo caption or a few lines in an unrelated article. Oaktree b (talk) 19:50, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- This is the second problematic delete here from this individual. Says "we need decent sourcing that talks about him, not a photo caption or a few lines in an unrelated article." At the time of that delete comment the article contained 7 references. No 6 is a photo caption as mentioned. I've No Idea which is the few lines in an unrelated article. It's not No 5 which is a partial filmography (no real use here). It's not No's 1-4 as they are all primarily about him (3 even have his name in the title), more than enough for GNG. That leaves No 7 (which I can't read atm) which is about a film he featured in and mentions his character in the title so cannot be called unrelated. With No's 1-4 alone we have the "decent sourcing that talks about him" that they say we need but they seem to be pretending those sources don't exist. duffbeerforme (talk) 13:07, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

The most surprising thing is accepting this article which is a clear failure of WP:NBAD and WP:GNG. The statement under WP:NBAD states "Medalist at the Grand Prix Gold or BWF World Tour" which this player is nowhere near of. We have been constantly getting articles like Draft:Revati Devasthale for example, which has even won a international event, incomparable to this subject Dilshad and yet the article has not been accepted because the reviewers rightly say that this article doesn't pass the guidelines.
Luckily somehow this article remains an exception, which has not even won an international event, let alone any BWF grand prix or world tour event. His highest achievement is the "bronze medal" at Lagos which doesn't qualify as podium finish under badminton guidelines and other achievements are far more undeserving of an individual article in wikipedia which are all confined to University or State level competitions.
One more thing, I tagged this article on [July 26 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/1167174506] with notability concerns. This player, who has been inactive on the circuit for years, somewhow gets all his bio or coverage, almost a month later (24/August/2023), in an unreliable source - Up18 based in Uttar Pradesh. What concerns me is if this news agency is paid to write something about this subject, largely unknown, not even close to some low tier players of India competing in International Circuit and winning some series/challenger events.
I request you all to please kindly read about this article and carefully vote because there are already a lot of concerns about this player's notability.
Note of caution to creator User:Syed Sadique Hussain, don't spam like you did in the earlier Afd as it disrupts the flow and for your ease I have covered all the sources you could get for this player. Thankyou. zoglophie 06:15, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

- I believe that User:Zoglophie has some problem with me. Not only he was rude with me during, the 1st nomination of deletion for this article. he was also disrespectful against the administrator User:Ritchie333 who gave the no consensus motion for the 1st nomination and started arguing with him as well. He has clear conflict of interest and doesn't want this article to be in Wikipedia literally. Here is the archive chat for that -[3]
- I would also suggest the Wikipedia community to go through the complete chat for the 1st nomination and specially after it was relisted.
- With regards to Dilshad he is a bronze medallist in a international event, former team captain of the Indian team, and several of his opponents and teammates have their own articles. and i would like to point out that he won a national-level university championship for a major country and then a state-level tournament for a jurisdiction which by itself would be comparable to a fairly major country.
- Also i would like to point out that Mr Dilshad and his partner where ban by the Kerala badminton Assocation because they complain about the association in media that they were treated unfairly by them which jeopardise Dilshad's career after the controversy. And in India specially in badminton there are limited amount of players that has achieve medal in international event as compared to the population they have. so, media does like to hear about people who have a controversial career. so, news article does pop - up every year.
- And who said that this player is inactive huh? here is this details that he has been playing.. the last match he played according to the official badminton website was in 2022 in INFOSYS FOUNDATION India International Challenge 2022 -[4]
- Please, do not add false information in the discussion that he hasn't played in years!
- Mr Zoglophile is taking this personally and he is taking the rules too strictly. i would like to remind him of WP:Ignore all rules policy where the focus of the article should be for improvement and written in an neutral point of view not to implement rule on everything that he sees ..which is exactly what he is doing right now.. i wrote this article following the rules and guidleines of wikipedia best to my knowledge. So, what mistake have i done?... see in this case - WP:NOTFATRAT should be implemented.. Wikipedia is an information-based place where things are written in neutral point of view and it should be information based only. that is how i wrote.

- comment - I would like to mention that the 8th reference that the nominator has mentioned which he was not able to access (which i don't know why because it was accessible from the very beginning) has significant coverage of the badminton player - Rayan, Stan (2009). "Dilshad: Making good progress" (PDF). The Hindu. p. 1. and it is a reliable source since it was published in the Hindu newspaper. additionally, i am attaching the link as well- https://www.udrop.com/KJzn/Dilshad_making_good_progress.pdf?download_token=aa5d49e6d05bf4e4ce85e67eb68cd3719f07553b48d32ac45ab91524c11594fc it can be access directly from the link. Additionally, i checked WP:RS/P with regards to up 18 news and it is no where mentioned that it is an unreliable source as a matter of fact the article has significant coverage of the player that details about alot of other things ... only a smaller part of it is mentioned in Wikipedia and even if the article doesn't exist still there are multiple secondary and tertiary source that act as evidence which are to prove what is written in Wikipedia about this person ... so, on what basis the nominator is calling it unreliable is controversial. before he accuse me of socketpupptary and now he is accusing of this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Syed Sadique Hussain (talk • contribs) 15:27, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

- User:Indefensible, we are not talking in personal terms here, atleast I'm not interested.

Just so you know, I can always relitigate the Afd afterwards.
- Your vote before was also not policy based, you were silent on the question I raised in previous Afd. Your vote here too is also dubious which is where Inclusionism - practice of saving unworthy articles comes in play. Thankyou. zoglophie 04:44, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
- What should be included or not is largely subjective opinion depending on both the interpretation of policy and the development of policy itself. If you characterize all of inclusionism as contrary to "rational decision making," that is a strawman argument which is stupid frankly. Also you said that I did not understand policies such as WP:GNG, however that is ad hominem and purely your subjective opinion. It was not worth responding to. - Indefensible (talk) 05:20, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
- Zoglophie, there is nothing wrong with having inclusionistic leanings just like there is nothing preferable and virtuous about tending towards deletionism. It depends on the article and the sourcing. Please do not attack editors again like you did during this AFD, it is incivil and will result in a block next time. There is no reason to get so worked up about having a difference of opinion with another editor, it happens on a daily basis here and while you don't have to agree you have to respect other editors.

And fyi, the international tournament won by Dilshad Kamaludheen is a lower grade in badminton tournament (see the example of badminton tournament structure here--> 2023 BWF season, the Lagos International not a part of BWF Grand Prix Gold and Grand Prix or BWF World Tour. 3) still in WP:NBAD: there are only the winner and the runner-up who step on the podium in BWF Grand Prix Gold and Grand Prix (until 2017) or the BWF World Tour or Super 100 level (from 2018 onwards). So, how come the semi-finalists in the lower grade of badminton tournament meets the notability. 4) Never enter top 100 in the Badminton World Federation ranking. 5) Never competed in the BWF World Championships. 6) Never won the Indian National Badminton Championships. I hope User:Timothytyy can help and explain more about this.. Thanks Stvbastian (talk) 16:58, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
- Weak delete Syed Sadique Hussain Sorry but under the current situation the article doesn't pass GNG and SNG. Even if you think the player has remarkable achievements, notability is based on SIGCOV and not how good are the subject's achievements. The reason I put "weak" is because we have difficulty in accessing and assessing the source, but after all, we cannot postpone a discussion just because of a single source. If you believe that you can find more reliable sources that provides independent SIGCOV to the subject, feel free to request draftification here or create a userpage with the same content and we will support you to develop a guideline-passing article. Regarding the nom, I admit that the user should have assumed good faith for all editors, including the ones who opposes the user's views but did not violate any conduct policies. The user has insisted on not dropping the stick, which may be considered as disruptive editing if the user fails to understand that there has been strong consensus on endorsing the first nomination's result. On the other hand, Indefensible should not have used a previous AfD/DRV outcome as an elaboration for a keep vote; after all, no consensus doesn't theoretically mean that it passes the guidelines, and consesnsus can change. I personally had some conflicts with the nominator quite a long time ago, but you should try to understand the user's stance, and that the user is just trying to do his job by nominating an article for deletion which fails GNG and SNG. I understand the nom's frustration that the article is still not deleted for a long time since his first nomination, but the nom should not have been that harsh anyway, so apologies for the user's irritating behavior towards you. Timothytyy (talk) 00:51, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
- My vote is the same as in the previous AFD, that is why I referred to it rather than making the same argument twice from 3 months ago which is hardly "a long time" ago. However I respect your response. - Indefensible (talk) 04:11, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

Keep: This list is neither original research nor a stand-alone list. All information is publicly available at the three sources provided. No United States post offices above 9,000 feet (2,743 m) elevation were opened prior to January 18, 1860. This list is of interest to postal historians. There is absolutely no need to delete this list. Yours aye, Buaidh talk e-mail 19:02, 14 September 2023 (UTC)- I don't think this is WP:OR either, but it is indeed a WP:Stand-alone list. Mdewman6 (talk) 19:36, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

- I don't think this is WP:OR either, but it is indeed a WP:Stand-alone list. Mdewman6 (talk) 19:36, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- Delete I don't see any sources establishing why high-elevation post offices are notable as a class or that postal historians are interested; the article synthesizes a cross-reference of when post offices were open with their elevations without coverage of the topic specifically. It's not really that interesting to say that high-elevation towns have high-elevation post offices, etc. Reywas92Talk 19:25, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- Delete unless further evidence of notability can be included. Right now, the article lists only one reference (a print book) that purports to consider the subject of high-elevation post offices in Colorado or the U.S. in general. I don't think that's enough to pass WP:LISTN muster, as on its face it is a non-encyclopedic cross-categorization. In other words, is there some fundamental reason why post offices at high elevation is a notable topic? Or is it simply on par with List of highest banks in the United States or List of highest courthouses in the United States, where it's not obvious why elevation has a particular connection to the topic. I normally oppose deletion of lists like this for notability reasons alone, or for casting them as mere trivia, and I want to find a way to a "keep", but as it stands this seems too far beyond the bounds of what is reasonable. Moreover, if elevation did have some relationship to post offices, I would think the list should then be organized by elevation rather than chronologically, with the latter being much closer to simply being trivia. Mdewman6 (talk) 19:36, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
I realize that is list may seem pointless to folks who who aren't interested in postal history or who don't live in a mountainous region, but the acquisition of a post office was seen by the residents of an early mining camp as conferring legitimacy on the community, and the higher the elevation of the camp the more important was that status. Folks in mountain communities care a great deal about these seemingly trivial facts as revealed in our tourism promotional materials. Yours aye, Buaidh talk e-mail 20:29, 14 September 2023 (UTC)- I can follow that reasoning, but is there any sourcing to reflect it? See also Wikipedia:Stand-alone_lists#Appropriate_topics_for_lists. Mdewman6 (talk) 21:27, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
- Something like List of highest towns in the United States or list of highest settlements in the United States, while perhaps more difficult to define, would likely be easier to defend as a stand-alone list topic, and provide similar information, given that most towns have or had post offices. Mdewman6 (talk) 00:29, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
- There is already List of cities in the United States by elevation. Perhaps the solution here is a redirect? Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 17:34, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
- Maybe, but it looks like regardless that list needs a new title, because it says "cities" when towns and other settlements are listed. We would need to verify that the lists match up, i.e. all of the top towns listed have post offices, and there aren't other populated places with extant post offices that aren't currently listed for some reason.

- Delete Perhaps a quick mention in THE highest post office's article, but it's really trivia at that point. As stated, there is nothing encyclopedic about the elevation of various post offices. I mean, they're all at a certain height above sea level, so why is one more notable than another? Oaktree b (talk) 20:04, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
Question: If this article was modified and moved to List of highest post offices in Colorado, would it make it less objectionable? Just asking, Buaidh talk e-mail 20:19, 14 September 2023 (UTC)- No, I don't think the issue is the title or the fact that the highest of X in the U.S. happen to all be in Colorado, or whether or not additional entries outside of Colorado should be included, etc. I think the issue is whether post offices at extreme elevations is notable or not, regardless of how the geographical scope is defined.

- It's not an aspersion if Siroxo literally did the thing and made it obvious that you did not. Your AFD rationales here and at the other one are very short and not sufficient to demonstrate lack of notability for articles with 40+ sources. If your intention is to get something merged, start a merge discussion. I didn't even realize the Balthier merge was related to you in any way. Sounds like you're the one holding a grudge.

- Siroxo did the source analysis that you didn't feel was necessary. Weird of you to accuse me of hounding when I commented on two of dozens(?) of your AFDs in the past week or so. Assume a little good faith before you cast WP:ASPERSIONS. You are also neither my teacher nor my mother, so please refrain from assigning me homework. Axem Titanium (talk) 08:26, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
- And you cant assume those sources are sigcov without checking it. Unless, you're treating game reviews as sigcov for the character. Also, you still have something to do rather than WP:Hounding someone. GreenishPickle! (🔔) 04:04, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
- Keep per source analysis by Siroxo. You can't just say "WP:BEFORE" if you didn't actually do a BEFORE check. Axem Titanium (talk) 00:37, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
- Merge...but reluctant. I'll admit it's a massively detailed article which gives me pause, but a lot of the sourcing seems reliant strictly on reviews and brief mentions. It's hard to say it stands apart on its own outside of the parent work. It's really well written for what's there so I'd rather be proven wrong if I'm missing a big source in that reception.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 16:11, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- Commment I tried searching material like the one Luke has but surprisingly there's nothing even through the most common sources like RPGAamer or RPGFan. Same with schoolars.Tintor2 (talk) 22:55, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. Sources already in the article demonstrate WP:GNG beyond doubt. I read through the sources cited in the reception section. There are multiple anime reviews and multiple game reviews going in depth describing the character; the characters relationships with other characters; how the character fits in to the story, the world, and the game. Whether it occurs in reviews or other formats is immaterial if the coverage is there. Being relatively stingy with wordcounts about characters I see something like:
- AnimeNewsNetwork [5] with > 250 words of SIGCOV regarding the character.
- 1up.com [6], with > 150 words SIGCOV regarding the character.
- Japanator [7] has > 250 words SIGCOV regarding the character
- Fandom Post (A site with editorial staff, not to be confused with Fandom.com) [8] with > 250 words SIGCOV regarding the character.
- rpgamer [9] with > 150 words of SIGCOV regarding the character
- rpgamer [10] with > 100 words SIGCOV regarding the character
- Eurogamer [11] with > 100 words SIGCOV regarding the character
- Gamespot [12] with > 70 words SIGCOV regarding the character
- We should have no trouble constructing a solid reception section and further details in the article with these sources, and indeed editors already have.

- A lot of these seem to be just relaying what happened though, not actually discussing hte character. Generally building an article around *just* reviews doesn't work because it often doesn't demonstrate any reception or significance beyond that work.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 14:19, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- These sources provide secondary character analysis that gives the reader an understanding of the significance of character without needing to go to the primary sources. We can summarize the secondary sources for an article. For my part, I have never heard of the specific anime or games prior to this AfD, and I feel reading these reviews I have a good understanding of the character now -- the way the character influenced the JRPG genre, the role the character fulfills within and between the stories, the translation from game to film, the narrative arc of the character beyond mere plot, etc.
- Some specific highlights of what I'm talking about (these examples are not comprehensive, I'm not trying to rewrite this article in the AfD):
- Gay (Japanator) describes that this character affected the genre and stood out at the time -- this is in a review of the anime DVD, taking a retrospective look at the character from a game from several years ago.
- Fitch (1up) describes how this character might relate to the publication's readers, and also describes how the character's story is more mature than expected from such a work
- Prewitt (RPGamer) analyzes themes of one game, contrasting them with themes of other games and showing how this character is used in establishing such themes.
- I have not looked beyond these sources to dig up more, I didn't even check out the listicles in the article, because I don't need to for my own understanding. For WP:GNG,
it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.
keeping in mind specifically that"Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content.
I am confident given the sources I listed above I could write a start class or better encyclopedia article on this subject without original research. —siroχo 20:38, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Siroxo Can you quote those " 250 words of SIGCOV regarding the character" from ANN? I just see a plot summary. Ditto for others. Where's the analysis? Can you quote some sentences about that character that are not just plot summary? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:01, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

- Merge to the list of characters from that game. The reception is long but traditionally built from SIGCOV-failing mentions in passing. That said, I insist on merge, not just redirect, as this is valuable content, researched from many said passing mentions. It should be preserved, but to keep this, we need to show SIGCOV is met, and I don't see any lenghty treatment of this chaeracter that is not jus a plot summary. Ping me if you disagree, preferably with quotations. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:03, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

- Merge If every trivial mention in reviews was enough to merit a standalone character article, we'd have articles on every protagonist ever. The WP:SIGCOV is not there to support an article rather than just a list mention. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:05, 7 September 2023 (UTC)
- Merge. I'm not opposed to citing a review for notability if there's real sigcov in there, but a lot of the sources mentioned seem to just discuss Yuri's role in the plot. There's a couple things, like noting that he influenced the genre, but it's just not enough yet. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 17:55, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
- Keep. I'm satisfied that there are enough secondary sources that discuss the topic. Notably, the topic of the article doesn't necessarily have to be "More on Yuri Lowell", it can be okay as long as the parts that discuss the topic are significant and not in passing - the ANN review of the anime does a good job of this. If a merge is done, it should be a very "nice" merge to something like a Character list, not a merge that is really just a redirect to Tales of Vesperia.

Keep Currently broadcasting radio station and in-article sourcing is proper enough for me.Nate • (chatter) 18:23, 14 September 2023 (UTC)- How so? What about the currently-provided sources or the fact that it is a "currently broadcasting radio station" means it is notable? -Indy beetle (talk) 09:05, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
- Change to redirect to Hyde County Schools My original vote was more of a weak keep than anything, and the sourcing was really thin without FCC links; it really doesn't help that the area served by the station doesn't even add up to 10,000 residents, so even when it was originating programming the only one likely sourcing it was the school itself and the on-air personnel. I yield to WC and Sammi's good explanation here, and I'm trying to adjust my AfD rationales in this area to be less ITEXISTS. I should also note even on the PRE website, I can't even really determine which network it broadcasts and outside the 'Android shakycam YouTube' disqualified source, it's just a true guess. Nate • (chatter) 18:44, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
- Alas, the best I can offer is a redirect to Hyde County Schools, the station's owner, though that seems less than ideal for various reasons. (While the station is currently—but has not always been—a Public Radio East transmitter, the sourcing of that statement—an unlisted YouTube video posting of an unofficial recording of a station identification, which for multiple reasons should not count as a source at all in any sense—is so thin (if not, as I suggested, outright invalid for our purposes) that redirecting there does not appear to be the best, or in this case least-worst, course of action.) A 2021 RfC established that the overpresumption of notability once contained within the likes of NMEDIA (an essay that the aforementioned RfC established would not be given guideline status) and BCASTOUTCOMES was incorrect, and confirmed that GNG is this topic area's notability barometer. We require significant coverage, and the existing sources come up short there. (And the fact that it is currently broadcasting is by no means a reason to keep — that just means it exists, but as another essay points out, existence is not notability.)

A little of a borderline case, as what little information I can get comes from the Ghosts of North Dakota website, which is questionable as a reliable source. At any rate there's nothing there now except a sign memorializing the school building which once stood here, and that was just about all there was to the place except a store mentioned in one of the comments to the post. The school didn't appear until 1922 and was supposedly the result of consolidating the other schools in the township. At any rate, I doubt that this adds up to a notable settlement.

- Comment. WP:GEOLAND policy above and historical source brought up by myself.
- "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. Even abandoned places can be notable, because notability encompasses their entire history. Census tracts, Abadi, and other areas not commonly recognized as a place (such as the area in an irrigation district) are not presumed to be notable. The Geographic Names Information System and the GEOnet Names Server do not satisfy the "legal recognition" requirement and are also unreliable for "populated place" designation.[1][2]"
- Legal recognition is US census of course

- Merge to Isabel Township. I'm fine with keep but I checked NARA: Post Office Reports of Site Locations, 1837–1950, for Benson County and unless it was misfiled I don't think it ever had a post office. I cant find it on any old USGS maps (although that's somewhat of a crapshoot because, you know, time and space and the historical record). But also this township plat map does not give me confidence that Isabel was ever a distinct settled place. I think at most Isabel (v Isabel Twp) was a crossroads or a road sign where people said they were from, but also it's hard to prove a negative and/or with rural locations the notability standards have to be a little more flexible IMHO. jengod (talk) 19:24, 20 September 2023 (UTC)

- Keep - while the article has many primary sources (in line with WP:SPS), to say that it only consists of unreliable sources is erroneous. He meets WP:WEB and WP:GNG. For example, PC Games, a reliable source per WP:VG/RS, wrote a lengthy review of his content in 2021. Automaton, reliable per the Chinese VG/RS, also wrote an article discussing one of his videos. PopCulture, while not fully discussed, also seems like a fairly reliable media outfit. Finally, Plugged In wrote a review of his content as well. There are also sources from Screen Rant, Game Rant and CBR, but seeing as how they've been quite divisive here owing to Valnet, I'd understand omitting them for proving notability (besides perhaps CBR). PantheonRadiance (talk) 07:15, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

I posted on the talk page nearly two years ago that it was used in an FA-review for Paper Mario, and it does have an editorial staff (EIC wrote the article). Speaking of FAs, Plugged In was used as attributed opinion for Wizards of Waverly Place, so I think it should also be usable for said purposes here. Finally, the Chinese VG/RS has a lengthy discussion a while back concluding Automaton was fairly reliable. PantheonRadiance (talk) 17:05, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

- Keep as a regular viewer of Scott the Woz and as per PantheonRadiance. This article is about the series, not the person itself (Scott the Woz is the icon of the series, but it also has several other characters in there). Though some sources are questionable, I think the article as a whole meets WP:GNG with the remaining reliable sources. Also, Scott The Woz is a popular channel with over 1.8 million subscribers (though subscriber counts don't necessarily confirm notability, I feel that YouTube channels with over 1 million subscribers have a point in notability). And... well, the channel is influential enough to indirectly disrupt Wikipedia every time they mention it (such as Wii Music (deletion discussion)). ᐱᔌᕬᐱɭᕮ ᐱᒧᐱᕬ (Talk) 10:34, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

- There are two arguably SIGCOV sources that have been introduced during this discussion that were not covered in that notability review: a channel review by Plugged In – a site that got through an FAR – and an article by Automaton – reliable per the Chinese Wikipedia – discussing an episode of the series. Also with the extensive article by PC Games, there should be enough to demonstrate notability. This is not counting the articles by PopCulture.com and CBR, which are of more debatable reliablity.

- Comment - For the record and for those advocating to draftify, Scott the Woz was already a draft before. Someone created the draft back in early 2021, a couple months after it was deleted in October 2020 per this AfD. Following the draft's creation, the article was repeatedly declined in AfC before being finally accepted in July 2022, due to sources such as PC Games and Screen Rant/CBR appearing in the draft. So to draftify an article that had already went through so many good faith edits and had its notability vetted doesn't sit right with me. I feel the only reason it was nominated was because the article admittedly became filled with lots of primary sources and overly detailed fancruft between its AfC acceptance and now. As a result, it masked the notability of the series unintentionally. Regardless of if it does get kept or draftified again, the article should probably be rewritten to include less fancrufty info and more info from these sources. PantheonRadiance (talk) 08:40, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: For those wanting to draftify/delete this article, keep in mind that, although the channel's coverage is very limited relative to its subscriber count, I added many citations to this article, especially the Fundraising & Television broadcast section. Also, if you look at the AfD talk page, there is an unregistered user who wanted to keep this article and said that it is well-made and very important for Scott the Woz fans. Am I allowed to port it over to this discussion so that it becomes a vote? Because it's clear they wanted to keep this article. |)are2|_eap (Talk) 07:30, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
- Keep, obviously meets GNG, per discussion and text sources. Randy Kryn (talk) 15:47, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
- Weak Keep with a cleanup to remove superfluous extra information and focus on the show instead of the person. It seems to me like the sources are there to justify an article, but there's a lot of extra information that doesn't really need to be there. Thanksolotl (talk) 18:20, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

Bihar Times does not have substantial coverage in credible and independent sources, which renders it insufficiently notable for inclusion on Wikipedia. It Fails WP:NMEDIA and WP:GNG.
Furthermore, the initial website that was mentioned in article 'bihartimes.in' redirects to an unknown spam link, casting doubt on its legitimacy as a reliable news portal. Saurabh{Talk} 00:54, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

- Comment At first I thought this was going to be a no-brainer delete, but their official website appears to be Bihartimes.news, not bihartimes.com or bihartimes.in. It's real, now we need to see whether it's notable. EDIT: Okay, I checked around and it looks like a newspaper called Bihar Times has been around since 1894 but fell into disrepair in recent years: [20] But according to the Wikipedia article's current sources, these might be two different publications [21]. This one's complicated. Darkfrog24 (talk) 14:31, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

- There may have been a newspaper called "Bihar Times" in the 1990s. However, recent news websites like "Bihartimes.news," etc., are not the same publication and appear to be unreliable. Apart from that, no sources have been provided in the article to claim the news portal as unbiased and reliable. Saurabh{Talk} 03:46, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
