Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary, it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|People|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to People.

People[edit]

William Ellis (actor)[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · newspapers · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · NYT · TWL)

Actor has only been in smaller playhouse renditions of notable stories but not been part of notable stage productions. They have only had minors roles on any television and movie roles. The references that mention him are either a listing, profile or mentions in the reviews of the plays, therefore fails WP:NACTOR. McMatter ^(talk)/_(contrib) 16:37, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

Keep, seems to meet the notability guidelines. Like I mentioned on the talk page, it is not to be confused with the Canadian actor (which the first deletion nomination was about). I know that I shouldn’t compare articles but look at Ben Lloyd-Hughes compared to this article. Both the actors were in Great Expectations (2012 film). Are you going to delete that article? Sahaib3005 (talk) 16:45, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

I'm confused are you saying they meet the criteria because they aren't Canadian and shared screen time with someone else that has a poorly referenced article? McMatter ^(talk)/_(contrib) 16:53, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

WP:NACTOR says "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions". Significant roles: Main character (Anlance) in Dragon Quest Swords, Compeyson in Great Expectations (2012 film), Peck in How I Learned to Drive, Wiktor in The Courageous Heart of Irena Sendler, Earl of Chester in Queen of the Desert (film), Aubrey in Parade's End (TV series), etc.Sahaib3005 (talk) 17:07, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

Weak keep per criteria 1 of WP:NACTOR. He has had multiple credited roles in notable films which, while not leading roles, are significant supporting characters (Compeyson being particularly important). That along with voicing the main character is a notable video game seems to put him on the keep side of the fence. I wish there were better sources to demonstrate SIGCOV which is why I voted weak keep.4meter4 (talk) 17:55, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
I am the original author of the piece, and I am grateful for all your comments. Just FYI, Ellis UK Theatre is definitely not "smaller playhouse renditions of notable stories but not been part of notable stage productions" - he was a leading man at Vaudeville Theatre (West End London), and played at National Theatre / Theatre Royal Bath etc... All his stage roles have been in major UK venues, not what I would call non-notable stage productions in the slightest. Film roles have been both significant and also smaller parts.BarracudaBaby1980 (talk) 22:15, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

The University named The Wolfgram Memorial Library after him and there is coverage of this person: Widener, PMC, Tenth Mountain Division, page 184, History of the 87th Mountain Infantry, Italy, 1945, page 181. Because he was a recipient of the Bronze Star Medal, Combat Infantryman Badge and Purple Heart (posthumously) and nominated for a Presidential Unit Citation, he passes WP:ANYBIO and should be mentioned in the libraries and museums section of Wiedner's page.

Manoj Dey[edit]

The three cited sources in the article all have a disclaimer at the bottom of the page, which reads Disclaimer: This is a Brand Desk content. Sponsored content is unacceptable and does not count towards WP:GNG. Searching "Manoj Dey" yields many similar sources across a variety of Indian news sources but I was unable to find one that contained significant coverage as well as not being marked as a press release. For this reason, I believe that the article should be deleted for having a lack of independent and reliable coverage about him. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 09:39, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Keep – Since she lived in the 20th century, an online BEFORE is not likely to bring up much. She is however notable for her work in the 70s. An African immigrant lady with named roles for that time is laudable. It also does not help that there's a bird named "Myna. Searching "Myna Bird" in Google books however brings up the following which suggest that more OFFLINE sources exist and the subject meets WP:BASIC;

Described as the 'only major black starlet in British sex films'

Described as a starlet

Described as socialite who fell from grace

Other mentions: [1] [2][3][4][5][6]Princess of Ara_(talk) 09:21, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

I would agree that the first source is significant, but all of the others are entirely trivial. This snippet view source "Described as a starlet" is a tabloid type article and not encyclopedic or significant per WP:NOTTABLOID. This "::Described as socialite who fell from grace" is a personal reminiscence lacking independence which uses her suicide as a moral fable but gives no analysis or discussion of her career to be considered significant. All of the other sources ([7] [8][9][10][11][12]) are trivial name drops or personal stories that are totally insignificant. For example, the first (and 4th as you gave it twice) of those sources describes using her for sex off camera; and is a rather disgusting tale of male conquest. With only one source rising to the level of coverage to meet notability, she still does not meet WP:BASIC.

With all do respect, I spend most of my time writing on entertainers/performers from the 19th and 20th centuries and have the research skills and access through my university library to historical newspapers and entertainment publications going back to even the 1800s. Miss Bird was not mentioned in detail in film reviews that I could find after going through several archive searches in PROQUEST, JSTOR, and other databases. Granted not everything has been digitized, but I did go through Variety, Billboard, The Stage, The Guardian, The Observer, The Times, etc. I also searched the Entertainment Publications archive in PROQUEST which has digitized most of Britain’s major film and television related magazines of the 1970s. In reviews, Miss Bird was either not mentioned at all or relegated to an un-named character list of "other actors" when they were because she was not in any leading or notable secondary /supporting roles. None of it was significant coverage. Best.4meter4 (talk) 13:16, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Quite unfortunately, I don't have access to similar resources or databases but tried my best to optimise the ones within my reach. I decided to participate in this debate because of her Nigerian origin and found her story quite interesting. The other trivial mentions only point to the fact that she probably has more OFFLINE coverage and is most likely notable. Since we have one significant source, I've taken another deep dive.

This The Times post says "We traced the lady on the left, whose name was Minah Ogbenyealu Bird actress and model of Nigerian origin based in London." Can't see the entire length because of the paywall.
This [13] snippet talks about her origin in Aba, Nigeria and education in Nigeria and Finland. Can't see the full length either.
She is listed as one of the "top black fashion models who paved the way for black women in fashion" here
Other mentions in Daily Mirror,The Guardian, British Film Catalogue, A cover she appeared on was discussed here Princess of Ara_(talk) 15:41, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Keep The Times says that "She starred in many films, such as Up Pompeii..." and so she passes WP:ENTERTAINER. Andrew🐉(talk) 16:47, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Um... her role in that film was "Girl Bather" and was very brief and minor and not even a credited role in the movie. A lot of the problem with the sources being listed here is that they are full of puffery. An uncredited film role with less than a minute of screen time and little or no dialogue is not a starring part. 4meter4 (talk) 17:19, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Keep per sigcov shown above, to which let's add her portrait in the National Portrait Gallery. HouseOfChange (talk) 17:21, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
Keep given not too many news are available from the 70's online and based on current citations and popular films she has been in. Peter303x (talk) 19:44, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

The original nominator was found to be sockpuppet, but his comments are worth a look "The article only contains three reliable sources of a non-notable voice actor.

Keep -- three reliable references seems entirely sufficient to me. And I don't think the (original) nominator unilateral assertion of non-notable is helpful to include, as both that's what we're adjudicating here, and it's clearly not an open and shut case, given that there are articles for him on a variety of other language wikis. matt91486 (talk) 14:46, 6 August 2021 (UTC)

He was in the squad of 17; but it appears India played only one match, in which he wasn't in the 11, and there were no substitutions. WP:NOLY says "compete" which I take to mean that the player has to have actually played. I find it unlikely that he meets WP:NFOOTY some other way. If he does, we need it demonstrated, as recent discussions indicate the community consensus is in favour of stricter scrutiny on one-source stubs, their basis for inclusion and the quality of such sourcing.

Delete - there is past consensus that being a squad member only at a tournament is not sufficient, you have to actually play - and in the absence of any other sporting achievements or significant coverage, there is no evidence of notability. Giant Snowman 10:27, 6 August 2021 (UTC)

Comment India played France in the 1948 Olympics and this article states that "The midfield-forward duo of Anil and Sunil Nandy took the field for the Indian National team against France in the 1948 Olympic Games." This was the first football match independent India played. Just to clarify they were only on the bench as far I can see the article appears to state that took the field (on the bench) but did not play on the pitch.It is tough to find resources for 1948 players in a pre internet era and in a foreign language Bengali.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 18:02, 6 August 2021 (UTC)

This has all the squads for each match of the tournament. Search for "India" to find the match against France. There are 11 players listed for India, but he's not one of them.

List of American people convicted of drug offenses[edit]

Does not appear to meet WP:LISTN - i.e. while “people who are convicted of drug offences” in the abstract is widely covered in sources, there does not appear to be any coverage relating to this list specifically as a set of people.

Speedy delete: This list violates our policies regarding attack pages. ―Susmuffin ^Talk 21:05, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
Yes, Speedy delete, I believe there are typically over a million drug offense arrests per year in the US, many of which will lead to a conviction, so this list will be either the size of the telephone directory of a decent-sized country, or it will be a selective list including only the names of those who some WP editor has decided to 'Name and shame'. It is of no encyclopaedic value, and unless its accuracy is incredibly carefully scrutinised, it will malign the innocent (especially those with common names). It goes against the spirit of WP and is an extremely ill-advised list. Elemimele (talk) 21:36, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
Delete per NLIST. More restricted lists are probably okay, e.g. celebrities, athletes, but not the whole kit and kaboodle. Doesn't qualify for G10 speedy deletion IMO. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:50, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
Delete. Grotesquely inappropriate and unwise. Gildir (talk) 22:40, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
Weak Keep and definitely don't Speedy Delete per Clarityfiend's rationale; however, at the same time, rename to List of notable Americans convicted of drug offenses, and do significant clean-up so that most of the page is cited with reliable sources. The topic of notable people getting convicted for drugs is the main topic of sources from Complex mag, Business Insider, Cine-tale, and NealDavisLaw, which meets LISTN for this reason: "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources". Additionally, stating that the article was meant as an "attack page" not only is not in the spirit of WP:AGF, but is also unlikely given that it was created by a user who created this article in January 2021 and is very experienced, having made several contributions to this website since 2014 [15] (User:Prisencolin), plus the fact that in the article's first state it at least had properly-formatted cites, if not for every person claimed to be convicted of drugs. Also, to address Elemimele's concern of potentially having to list a million offenders, most of them wouldn't have to be listed if we made a criteria (as we do other list articles) determining which person is notable enough to be listed. 👨x🐱 (talk) 22:50, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

Speedy Delete as per nomination, and the fact this violates Wikipedia's policy about attack pages. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TH1980 (talk • contribs) 05:30, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
Delete I don't think it matters very much if this was meant as an WP:Attack page or not—it's still inevitably going to come across as an attempt to name and shame to anyone visiting the page, which is a terrible look for Wikipedia. I take rather a strict view of WP:BLP when it comes to crime—we must of course abide by WP:BLPCRIME with regards to waiting for convictions, but we must also make sure that we only mention that living people have been convicted of crimes when it is actually relevant and to do so in WP:PROPORTION to that relevance. A list consisting entirely of drug convictions is rather dubious from that perspective and WP:DELREASON#9 (Articles that breach Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons) may apply even if WP:G10 doesn't. At any rate, WP:DELREASON#14 (Any other content not suitable for an encyclopedia) applies since this list is WP:INDISCRIMINATE; it might be possible to create lists with more restricted scopes as suggested by Clarityfiend, but those would of course be different lists altogether rather than different versions of this one. And since the WP:BLP concerns are so strong, I think that before any such lists are created it should be demonstrated that WP:LISTCRITERIA can be outlined such that the lists meet WP:LISTN and serve a valid WP:LISTPURPOSE while being compliant with WP:NPOV and WP:BLP. TompaDompa (talk) 02:15, 8 August 2021 (UTC)

I really do not think this is an appropriate topic for a standalone list - insofar as I can tell, we don't have similar lists for alcohol, marijuana, or cocaine just to name a few, nor would we categorize people by their use of substances.

Comment: I'm at a loss to see what value this list has. I can understand why we have lists of prime ministers, of species of bacteria, and of people who studied at a particular school, because these lists are helpful to users in identifying commonalities between the members of the lists, and in identifying obvious outliers, but it seems to me that the variety of users of amphetamines is potentially so large, and the commonalities (other than that of drug use) likely so indecipherable, that it is impossible for this list to provide any useful content for our readers. I'm abstaining from expressing a view on the future of this article until I've seen what other people have to say about this page, whether positive or negative. RomanSpa (talk) 17:21, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
Looks like I picked the wrong week to !vote delete - Humor aside, too indiscriminate of a list. --MuZemike 17:50, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
Delete. I was a bit conflicted about this nomination given that most of the arguments for deletion fell into the lines of WP:OTHERSTUFF (comment from ♠PMC♠ about similar articles not existing for other addictive substance) and WP:NOTUSEFUL (the claims about commonalities between drug users being so indecipherable the article would be useful). However, I couldn't find any sources about or non-trivially discussing notable people using drugs, which makes me !vote Delete for being an potentially WP:INDISCRIMINATE list. If this article is to be kept, it should be a list of people notable for using drugs, with a criteria of how to determine that. 👨x🐱 (talk) 20:19, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
Speedy delete as likely to operate as an attack-page list. Similar to list of convicted drug users also nominated AfD. This list even starts with a note that it is incomplete. On what basis is someone unfortunate enough to be included or excluded? Are those included selected because a WP editor wants to name-and-shame for drug use? That's not the role of an encyclopaedia. Elemimele (talk) 21:44, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
- I am !voting Delete too, but I'm not seeing how the list is an attack page, plus it is generally not a good idea to assume an article was made for malicious purposes. This article is the creator (L3pr3(h^un2014, and man would I not choose a username like that)'s first and only contribution, and the creator started the page as a short list with citations properly formatted and a lead as neutral as those of other articles [16], which makes me think the creator had encyclopedic intentions but may have not been fully aware of why the list wouldn't be acceptable on Wikipedia. Stating an editor would want to "name-and-shame" a person not only doesn't follow the principle of WP:AGF, but also is an unlikely accusation given that they cited sources stating they were users of the drug. 👨x🐱 (talk) 22:03, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

@HumanxAnthro: I'm sorry, maybe I didn't put that well, and I'm open to the idea that I'm completely wrong! I certainly didn't want to accuse any individual editor, or those who have populated the list so far, of using it as an attack page. I was more worried that if someone in the future found themselves unwillingly in a scandal because of an amphetamine addiction, it would be all too easy for an ill-willed person to use this list as a way to draw attention to, and publicize their problem. Although I assume good faith of editors where possible, I think we have to be open to the idea that some people, generally from outside the WP community, may attempt to use WP for the wrong purposes (and that's why we have a helpful team of admins). I felt, perhaps wrongly, that this list was particularly liable to becoming a target of that sort of mis-use from outside. I would have less concern about the list were I certain that it could remain a reliable historical record of those notable people who've battled addiction, but even then, it runs the risk of focussing too much attention on that aspect of their life without the balancing information of everything else they did. Though of course these people have their main articles for that. Elemimele (talk) 06:51, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

Thank you so much for the clarification. From what I've seen, you've just gotten started contributing to the site this year, and are new it, so I'll let you know this. These are hugely valid concerns, and user contributions for publicity (WP:ADVERTISEMENT) or personal attack reasons is an all-too unfortunate reality on here. However, you must keep in mind that (most of the time) we keep or delete articles based on a subject's coverage and notability, not whether another user will use it for bad intentions. Issues of balance, aka WP:DUEWEIGHT, WP:NPOV, and attack potential are separate issues of cleanup and user behavior, not AFD issues, although there are exceptions where articles are deleted not only for being not notable but also for obviously (emphasis on obviously) being attack pages. 👨x🐱 (talk) 14:59, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

Delete If this were a category, I'd say it's WP:NONDEFINING. The same kind of logic applies here – the list is WP:INDISCRIMINATE and should be deleted per WP:DELREASON#14 (Any other content not suitable for an encyclopedia). I can elaborate on that if anybody wants me to, but it seems that we are (mostly) on the same page here. I'll also note that while only one person currently on this list is still alive, the very concept of the list is a WP:BLP nightmare. TompaDompa (talk) 00:41, 8 August 2021 (UTC)

My WP:BEFORE search turned up no WP:Significant coverage at all, the best I got was this which lists the reign as lasting from November 1924 to December 1928. There may be offline sources. At any rate, this is a plausible search term, so a redirect seems reasonable to me. There is nothing to merge, however; all the information here is already there. There are Wikipedia articles in two other languages: fr:Tomasi Kulimoetoke Ier and to:Tomasi Kulimoetoke I; these contain no further information than what little we already have here (at least I think so – the machine translation from Tongan I got was absolutely atrocious).

David Strickel[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · newspapers · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · NYT · TWL)

Per WP:BIO, subjects should have significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. After a thorough search, I have not found such sources. ~~David Strickel is a self-proclaimed "medium" who claims to be in touch with a supernatural force called "Tya" for "trust your abundance."~~

description of all available sources, which are not independent, not reliable, and almost entirely self-published.

The references currently cited in the article include: a paid advertisement in an online javascript-based spiritualist magazine [17], a radio interview from a cruise sponsored by that magazine that I don't think actually occurred [18], and links to his podcast episodes from this same magazine and his own podcast [19] [20] [21] and book by the same name [22].

All of these are WP:PRIMARY and not independent of the subject, because he paid for them. The only possibly secondary sources available are an interview from SpiritualBiz magazine [23] (which bills itself as "A magazine for Spiritual Entrepreneurs"), this podcast interview from a fellow medium/spiritualist [24], and this listicle "24 books about Spirituality that are actually worth reading" from fupping.com.

Fupping.com has this on their about page: "Fupping aims to revolutionise the industry by putting the power to create back in the hands of you, the readers. We very much live by the mantra that if someone wants to write about it, then someone wants to read it. That is why we don’t provide guidance on the lists or recommendations you write, go crazy and write about what you love."

The article failed AfC twice for these same issues. It has been essentially untouched since it was finally accepted in August 2019. It was written and has been edited by basically one user, who likely has a COI: Liveatthesummit (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · edit filter log · block user · block log)

In addition, Medicine in First World War Europe, The Times, The York Press. Rowntree was a conscientious objector from a Quaker family (from what I can see, even going on the battlefield was an unusual step). The Rowntrees source was written by a historian this year, so I'd consider it secondary. I'll add the sources into the article, but thought I'd respond here first.

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a radio personality, not properly referenced as passing our notability criteria for radio personalities. As always, people are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they have jobs -- the notability test requires externally validated evidence of significance, such as notable awards and/or the reception of significant coverage in media independent of oneself. But the notability claim here is that he exists, and the sourcing is entirely primary source content on the self-published website of his own (former) employer rather than any evidence of independent coverage.

WP:BLP of a person with no properly sourced claim to passing our inclusion standards. The notability claim on offer here is that he holds a Guinness World Record for the loudest known burp, sourced only to the Guinness website -- but holding a Guinness record for some random silly thing is not an automatic inclusion freebie in the absence of a WP:GNG-worthy volume of reliable source media coverage about him and his achievement. Guinness liberally hands out records for literally any inconsequential thing somebody deigns to contact them about, but an encyclopedia needs to see a reason why anybody ought to care.

Keep Records for random silly things are regularly in the news. Right now, our own ITN is headed by a new record for the women's hop, skip and jump, for example. And then there's all the other silly Olympic sports for which there is strong competition but the winner there must be solo synchronised swimming! The subject in this case has attracted lots of continuing coverage over the years for their repeated record setting – see the BBC or Guardian, for example. There's a lot more coverage to be found by browsing the search links above and so it's clear that WP:BEFORE hasn't been done and WP:NEXIST applies. Andrew🐉(talk) 08:22, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
Delete, the coverage is trivial. The comparison to Olympic Games watched by millions of viewers is probably meant as a joke? Geschichte (talk) 14:01, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
Delete. Completely and utterly non-notable. The idea that he is notable through holding a Guinness record would only apply if Guinness still kept the standards it did in the McWhirters' day (and no I don't endorse their politics!) but we all know that it doesn't. If it did, someone's being cited by Guinness probably would make them notable for Wikipedia, but it doesn't and that's that. To cite a silly season article, in however reliable a source, tells its own story. Should note that even 15 years ago, when our standards were much lower, two out of three contributors wanted the article to be merged with another. No excuses now.

Keep per the WP:SUSTAINED coverage shared by Andrew Davidson. Articles in BBC News and The Guardian is enough to pass WP:GNG imo. Two votes above appear to ignore Andrew's comment and only focus on the present article, not the sources available elsewhere. NemesisAT (talk) 00:17, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
Redirect to Burping#Contest as per Reywas92 . I am not sure if the coverage quoted by Andrew Davidson really works as asserting notability for an encyclopaedia as the BBC link is not from the main news website but actually on the Newsround website, which is a childrens' news programme that often covers events of interest to children which would not pass WP:GNG, and the Guardian article is marked as part of the 'silly season', where strange events that would not normally be considered notable enough for inclusion in a newspaper are covered during slow periods. pinktoebeans ^(talk) 11:57, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

weak-keep but it's a tricky one. Breeding freshwater catfish is a niche hobby, but quite a large niche so far as its occupiers are concerned, and clearly Fuller is a big fish in the pond he's decided to cultivate. The trouble is, if your area is niche, it will only get published in niche places, so a person like Fuller is never going to appear in the Times or Guardian, it's always going to be in WeirdFishMagazine and CoryBreedersMag or wherever. I'd go for a weak-keep because (1) he's had a species named after him, which is quite an accolade; (2) it's impossible to find any website or fish magazine mentioning Corydoras without it mentioning Fuller's name (i.e. there are no independent sources because anyone who knows anything about Corydoras is a friend of Fuller's, but this very fact argues his relevance, if we consider freshwater catfish breeding to be notable); and (3) the alternatives of merging into Corydoras generally or Corydoras fulleri would unbalance those articles by putting too much Fuller-information into what should have been a Fish-article. I don't think Fuller is going to be easy to classify using WP's normal notability guidelines, because he's not quite a businessman, not quite an author, and not quite an academic; he's occupying a unique spot with a foot (fin?) in each.

Delete The Japanese page (which is poorly sourced) describes her as working in the UK, as does a Japanese film festival which lists her as a British entry, so there should be English language material. The interview in French is a blog entry. Two of the three links are to the SAME festival recommended entry list, which in itself doesn't establish notability, as it's not any kind of in depth coverage. Searches for her name in English and Japanese and variously "Last snow before spring", "Alice's Cave", "Fish's wish" (Her three main works listed on the ja page) bring up fewer than ten hits each.

The Third Terrorist[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · newspapers · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · NYT · TWL)

As part of a major revamp of KFOR-TV, I came across this article about a 2005 book promoting an alleged conspiracy around the Oklahoma City bombing. I am struggling to find notability in reliable sources. It is mentioned in two sources, https://web.archive.org/web/20120924232653/http://www.laweekly.com/2005-07-07/news/the-rohrabacher-test/ and https://www.patriotledger.com/article/20110311/NEWS/303119753 , but I am struck by the lack of coverage at publication in reliable sources. Most of the news materials I can find in the 2004-05 material are either from known non-reliable sources, notably WND (which was involved in the book's publication and apparently split from the publisher mid-process), or are actually letters to the editor.

I do not believe that the author is independently notable, either, and nominate her for deletion:

Comment: I'm running into the same issue. There's some mild mention in relation to the politician using it in her report but not any coverage for the book itself. I'm leaning towards deletion, given that there's not really anything major out there about the book. No opinion on the author, but if she's deemed notable I'd recommend a selective merge in her article. The book article definitely needs some serious pruning. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 00:28, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
Comment: My stance on both articles is pretty much dependent on if there's a way to get more reliable sources. Chances are it's difficult because of the book promulgating a conspiracy theory, thus making it very difficult for any serious mainstream coverage... which may also be highly negative to begin with. If it's possible, then I'm keep, otherwise I'm in favor of delete. Nathan Obral • he/him • t • c • 19:36, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Weak Keep - part of the problem here is WP:BEFORE because any diligent editor conducting a search is likely to hit the same wall I did; that a search for "the third terrorist" inevitably brings up myriad sources that reference other events that involve more than two terrorists, such that one is described as "the third terrorist". But I managed to find the following:

It rates a mention here by John F. Lehman in the context of the 9/11 Commission. It doesn't rise to the leverage of significant coverage, but the idea of notability is - essentially - that people are talking about it. Its a book about a terrorist attack being referenced by someone like that in a context like that.
It gets name-checked here though I would say that's not really significant coverage either. It is, however, a reliable source and - again - there are people talking about it (other than the author and publishers), and in the context of an entirely unrelated event some 15+ years later.
This article is focused on the book and an individual discussed therein, but 7 years after the book was published. Along with the JPC article we're getting toward WP:LASTING in my view.
It is referenced in this dissertation. While it is academic in nature, it is just one PhD student's submission so how much weight it should be given is a matter for debate.

I'm not entirely convinced. I guess I'm defaulting to inclusionism because multiple, independent sources have referenced the work long after it was created, and not in sensationalist terms. They certainly aren't trying to sell copies. St★lwart¹¹¹ 12:24, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi HATSAREMACHINES, the problem is not you or your page, at first glance it looks fine. The problem is the possible lack of detailed mentions of Paul Williams in reliable sources. Have a quick look at WP:NBIO. There are two ways forward, make arguments using Wikipedia's guidelines or find as much reliable detailed coverage of Paul Williams as you can. Don't try to be too clever and don't burn yourself out on any one thing. Have a look here to see how these things sometimes go. Dushan Jugum (talk) 19:57, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
Hello, I'm the author of the other recent draft - we both wrote an article in the same week unbeknownst to the other! (I only found this one through scouring through Twitter today.) This clearly has extra info (as well as some of the same) but I think what we might need to do is reorientate the article(s) towards his comedy work since that is primary? In comedy he has been nominated for a major national award and has a leading role in a mainstream television programme that is on its second series; there will need to be a page at some point as there is increasing demand for info about him due to the international interest in Taskmaster. [I am based in UK and Hats in Brazil even though this is a NZ-based comedian.] It's just how we substantiate that, given that most articles will be entertainment review type sources?

18:22, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

Well, what would you say is the number of sources for it to be considered 'significant coverage'? Because I'd argue that what I put should be enough. It's not like he'll have the same media coverage as a comedian based on the UK or the US. And I found some interviews but I was told that they're not reliable, even though I've seen other articles using interviews. In terms of WP:ENT, he's had multiple significant roles across those platforms, he was even nominated for awards. And Taskmaster may be his first major role on television, but it's an international programme, with multiple versions and a broad fan base. His name is even included on the show's article.

WP:3REFS "In order to show that a subject covered in many news reports is notable, three independent references from three different time periods, would in general successfully rebut notability challenges." That is just so far removed from what I think normally happens here. I will remove my vote as that is the best info we have right now, do not be surprised if it comes back when more a knowledgeable editor sets us right. Dushan Jugum (talk) 11:40, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for your contribution to the article, Dushan Jugum. CursoryBethany and I will be sure to look further for references in the meantime. We'll be waiting for another editor's opinion.

HATSAREMACHINES 22:27, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

I enjoyed the breadth of the new references in the article! (thanks to the other writers). I have reorganised the text to focus on his main achievements as a comedian, such as his writing role in Taskmaster and its status as an international programme. Does it need anything more to avoid deletion?

Keep my feeling is he meets WP:ENT now, with performances at Edinburgh and Melbourne and around New Zealand for comedy. On TV with Taskmasker and put out music. I did find some more sources as well with Southland Times, Radio NZ, The Spinoff, NZ OnScreen, two Stuff articles and The New Zealand Herald. — Preceding unsigned comment added by NZFC (talk • contribs) 05:20, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

non notable author article accepted by a sock. Previously moved into draft by Praxidicae and deleted by discospinster.

Dear editor,

I created this page based on news articles and other credible sources online. The subject in the story is a verified personality on social media (Facebook) and is a person with a notable presence in India. However, I would love to improve my wikipedia editing skills and would request you to suggest improvement techniques to make the article better. I humbly request you to reconsider the deletion suggestion

Wikienthuindian (talk) 19:03, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

Delete At first, the article deceives. But on closer inspection, almost all sources carry disclaimer like brand media (mid-day), brand desk content (Zee), Featured content (DNA). There is no reception of the work. The Hindu article is a single paragraph description of the book with zero independent commentary on the book. So while it is sourcing what could be considered reliable sources, they are clearly not independent. Wikienthuindian, being verified person on Facebook or anywhere else is not an indication of notability at Wikipedia. Can you provide any sources that are truly independently written? Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 02:22, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

Dear Nomadicghumakkad

I wasn't aware of the featured bit honestly. I thank you for the new learning. These are independently written I articles I could find quickly

I will look for more if you need me to. Kindly keep giving your feedback. I am working on another article and your feedback will really help

Wikienthuindian (talk) 08:48, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

Comment Hi Wikienthuindian. Edex and GDN - I honestly don't consider them a reliable source. People have argued in favour of EdEX since it's part of New Indian Express but I find it bloggish and not journalistic. The Aisa-net review - any reviews that ONLY praises the book are dubious. Yes, I will be happy to assist you on other articles. Sorry you have to go through this unpleasant experience on this one. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 03:35, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

AfDs for this article:

(Find sources: Google (books · news · newspapers · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · NYT · TWL)

Essentially an unverified article as the only source is a dead link with no publication details identifying the source or author. I was unable to find sources in a WP:BEFORE search, but granted foreign language sources may exist outside of my expertise in locating. Arguments from the first AFD 13 years ago about future editing don't seem to have panned out in reality. Fails WP:SIGCOV. 4meter4 (talk) 12:08, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Comment to anyone looking at this topic please be aware there is a long and confused history involved (see here). There are two Ramzi Najjars, one living and one dead.

I wouldn't say this article is very promotional. The awards are mentioned, that's right, but there are also sources available ([35]). The citation style is horrible and has to be improved - no doubt. I would say as the article is not really up-to-date, it should be updated first and then it's easier to say sth about WP:NACTOR. So far: weak keep.Tec Tom (talk) 18:09, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

It needs work, but at least one of the sources looks OK to me. I would prefer it be tagged for improvement than deleted outright. Hanjaf1 (talk) 05:09, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

As in the article she seems to have done few major roles out of which it says Krishnadasi (2016 TV series) and Saath Nibhaana Saathiya 2 out of which I found coverages mentioning her only work Saath Nibhaana Saathiya 2 and Thus i failed to find the previous one's independent coverages which technically makes her fail Wikipedia:NACTOR hence we need more prominent refs to make her pass NACTOR, I would want other editors opinion on this via a clear consensus Surya^beej ^⋠talk⋡ 08:28, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
