Reviewed during New Page patrol. No evidence of wp:notability under SNG or GNG. I'm normally very lenient on schools but this one just fell too short. Very small secondary school. Has no real sources (just 3 database and internal admin type listings) much less any GNG sources. As a result of no real sources, just has brief "it exists" type content. Previously tagged by others for wp:notability. North8000 (talk) 21:38, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- Merge to a related software article, probably Rooting (Android), as was suggested in the first AfD five years ago. There's not really enough coverage of this to satisfy general notability guideline from what I can see. The main sources on the article currently are self-published and it seems that that may be difficult if not impossible to replace while keeping any content of note in the article.

- Have you read the 2015 CNet article? It is decidedly not a primary source. Aaron Liu (talk) 15:48, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- That's really the only notable review though that I can see. I still just think that this could easily be covered in the Rooting (Android) article. Many of the other sources on the article seem to be unsuitable; several are just original research forum threads. StewdioMACK (talk) 16:10, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Only two are forum threads, one of which represents the entire forum’s position; the other one is indeed a problem. I’m not opposed to a merge as the article is indeed quite short, but I think that there are at least two good sources, the other one being DigitalTrends. Aaron Liu (talk) 16:47, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- Does the first forum thread not constitute an inappropriate source/original research? Honest question, I would have thought you'd have to get a reliable secondary source reporting on that development instead of a mod on the forum itself. And Digital Trends is a fine source but Kingo is just a small part of that article. StewdioMACK (talk) 16:56, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Immers fails GNG with a lack of SIGCOV. The sources are more focused on Steven van de Velde than Immers. Dougal18 (talk) 12:21, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect – I made a good faith effort to try and expand this earlier but Dougal18 is right, the sourcing is almost entirely about his connection to Steven van de Velde. They did win a match but I don't think that translates to a medal where WP:NOLYMPICS comes into play and even then that's presumptive notability. It's possible I'm not looking in the right places and the current coverage is just drowning out other aspects of this guy's career but I honestly haven't found anything.

- Redirect The improvements - two youth appearances - are the definition of routine coverage, and passing mentions relating to non-notability-establishing tournaments, at that. And only two, but even if there were three (bare minimum of continued coverage), it's not sigcov. Kingsif (talk) 22:03, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- Redirect even after the improvements my Commonsense this still lacks Notability as it only came from one source, which I still don't know if it is WP:RS Warm Regards, Miminity (talk) (contribs) 06:24, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
- Strong Keep - Steven van de Veldes article was a Keep and deemed notable per WP:GNG. This person is as well notable per good third party sources and Olympic appearance and sports career.BabbaQ (talk) 16:21, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- The premise of the AfD is that Immers' connection to someone notable (van de Velde) does not make Immers notable - arguing that someone else is notable is not a !keep argument, let alone a strong one. Kingsif (talk) 22:11, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Immers has now consistent top ten placements in the European Championships, World Championships and the Olympics, so he clearly belongs to a very narrow elite in his sport. His European championship title as a junior may not be enough in itself (I and BabbaQ have expanded the article considerably since most people here argued for redirect) but even that is important in the big picture, how consistent this player has been throughout his career. The argument to keep has nothing to do with the global infamy resulting from his association to van de Velde. As a beach volley player he is equally notable in his own right as van de Velde is in that regard. Commonssense (talk) 08:54, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- I was responding to BabbaQ's argument that since Van de Velde has an article, Immers should. Your response, about how great you think he is and how much work you put into adding two lines to the article, is irrelevant to that. Kingsif (talk) 22:16, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Doczilla Ohhhhhh, no! 17:25, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Strongly oppose redirect: Matthew Immers has played on a high level with a number different people (such as Yorick de Groot, together with whom he won silver at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics). It is common in beach volleyball to play with multiple partners during ones career. To redirect him to one specific partner is not very helpful. In particular when that specific partners fame is based on the combination of being an Olympian and a convicted child rapists. There is no sports reason to redirect Immers to van de Velde rather than the other way around. The only reason would be that van de Velde is more famous due to being a convicted child rapists. Since Immers is not a convicted child rapists having a redirect that way seems like an (unintentional) character assassination. As per Geschichte and others I would prefer keep due to his results as a player. Gunnar Larsson (talk) 19:28, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- The proposed redirect target is surely Netherlands_at_the_2024_Summer_Olympics#Volleyball. Kingsif (talk) 22:15, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- Whilst that for sure is better than Steven van de Velde that is not an obvious target. It is only the competition that is most recent right now. Beach volleyball at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics would likely make more sense, since that is the global competition in which he won a medal. In general redirects are quite overused on Wikipedia in ways that are not very helpful. If not considered noteworthy a simple deletion would probably be better since then search tools can show any of the articles in which he is mentioned. Gunnar Larsson (talk) 06:29, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- I suggested Van de Velde as the target since most of the coverage I could find was talking about them together and the article goes into how both of them scored. I'm open to a better target and I think Kingsif's suggestion is the best idea. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 19:05, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Would you still consider that if the year was not 2024 and the Olympics hadn't just finished? I fail to see that the Olympics is an obvious redirect for someone that have achieved similar results in the World Championships etc. If you do not consider it noteworthy then why not just delete it? Search engines will still find the Olympics and other competitions he competed in (imho we are overusing redirects a lot, their importance is in guiding the user to pages where the article subject is handled in a more holistic way, the goal should not be to make editors happy about that one red link has been removed).
- With regards to media exposure etc. I would suggest searching something like [1], i.e. in Dutch and without van de Velde. Most people are mainly written about in their local language rather in English. Can even use something like [2] (with the time bit set to "Archives" to get rid of overexposure of the most recent events). Gunnar Larsson (talk) 09:12, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- I don't understand Dutch so it'd help if you clarify if these are SIGCOV about Immers or simply passing mentions. If there is enough SIGCOV for GNG, I'm okay with changing my !vote to keep. My opinion on redirecting to the Olympics was because I was under the impression that was the highest level of competition he had competed in (previous comments mention the Youth Olympics and I did not notice the World Championships angle). If he truly isn't notable and he's known for both, I support deleting because the target would actually be ambiguous. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 09:42, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to Netherlands_at_the_2024_Summer_Olympics#Volleyball: I'm not seeing much coverage about this subject specifically in depth, rather most of the coverage mentioning him is about other people. Let'srun (talk) 18:59, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

I declined a speedy A10 request as this list title implies it is meant to be different from List of generic and genericized trademarks. However, the only content here is the same elements.

- Didn't see that in your edit summary. Not opposed in principle to a redirect but I'd rather have it be stable via an AfD consensus than subject to a revert war. Dclemens1971 (talk) 16:51, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

- Delete I would not characterize Prothom Alo, Bhorer Kagoj, Samakal, Somoy News, or Manab Zamin as tabloid coverage, but all of them make only passing mention of the film, and I could find no better sources, so I agree that it is not notable.
- Redirect would be a good choice if I believed that the film might become notable in the future, but I don't. Wikipedia's internal search is much better than it used to be, so without a redirect it will return three lists that include the film and eight biographies of people involved in it. Readers can choose the result(s) they're most interested in.
- Delete is the better choice, given that the article was created by a block-evading sockpuppet, and is only ineligible for G5 because it was then extensively edited by someone about whom it was concluded "There's certainly some UPE or meatpuppetry going on", even though they could not be linked by technical evidence to the same sockfarm.

What is here that is specific to Symbol-intensive brands could be added, perhaps as a section, in the lifestyle brand article.

Article does not pass WP:BLP for multiple reasons: almost all of it seems to be unverifiable original research, it contains no reliable secondary sources, is written in a semi-promotional tone, and the quasi-entirety of its content comes from one single user (including article creation and portrait photo, described as their "own work", strongly hinting at an undisclosed conflict of interest.

Article should be deleted This is a BLP that is written by the subject (WP:YOURSELF) and is not notable (WP:NBLP). Subject is a minor streamer (~20k subscribers) and has several self-published gaming materials (all with under ~2,500 purchases).
Example: the main section "Dungeons & Dragons 5e" is just a table of self-published work. There are hundreds or thousands of such self-published works on the site link. Why is this one NBLP?
Example: the section "D&D Open Game License controversy" it is not clear how this subject is important to this event (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Game_License).
Example: one of the sources is just the author being interviewed for a news story because he is a teacher.
Example: Eight of the sources are the author being interviewed because of an accident.
Example: "Pounds is a member of the Phi Sigma Kappa fraternity, and has a tattoo of The Triple T's on his right bicep." Why is this important?
Example: "Pounds credits the prevalence of right-wing misinformation about the Star Frontiers: New Genesis racism controversy and the depiction of the Hadozee race in Spelljammer: Adventures in Space to making him openly vocal about his progressive ideology and social issues in gaming.[22] [23]" None of the linked articles mention the subject.

Fails WP:NLIST. Closest thing I can find is this: [7]. Ultimately this is WP:LISTCRUFT with no reliable source dictating which 'firsts' are notable and worthy of inclusion.

DISAGREE Re ‘’ List of electoral firsts in New Zealand ‘’ Wikipedia articles on individual MPs frequently refer to an individual MPs claim to fame eg being the longest serving MP (Rex Mason), and the parliamentary website itself has a list of “longest serving Members of Parliament” [[ https://www.parliament.nz/en/visit-and-learn/mps-and-parliaments-1854-onwards/longest-serving-members-of-parliament/ ]]. There are similar lists for other countries eg List of electoral firsts in Canada and List of electoral firsts in the United Kingdom. Hence I do not see the need for an item by item justification of this or similar lists. Hugo999 (talk) 10:49, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- WP:OSE and what Wikipedia writes isn't relevant here. WP:NLIST is which states: 'Notability guidelines also apply to the creation of stand-alone lists and tables. Notability of lists (whether titled as "List of Xs" or "Xs") is based on the group. 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, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list. The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been'. Traumnovelle (talk) 20:28, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment can you explain your logic with
All MPs are presumed notable so having them be notable by other characteristics typically involves original research.
? I don't follow at all, and your point here seems to be adding 2 and 2 to get 7. Turnagra (talk) 20:22, 10 August 2024 (UTC)- Many of these entries involve original research, for example Iriaka Ratana's source here: [8] does not say she is the first. Instead someone has come to that conclusion via their own research. Stating that these MPs are notable for their 'firsts' is also typically original research, as without a source that states it it's an assumption that their 'first' made them notable rather than the fact that being an MP makes one notable. Traumnovelle (talk) 20:25, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Having sourcing issues doesn't necessarily mean that it's original research, though. A cursory google search of that specific example found this within about 20 seconds. I also still fail to see how their inclusion of a first leads to the assumption you're stating at the end, or how that somehow diminishes the notability of the list. I think at the moment I'm leaning heavily towards keep. Turnagra (talk) 20:59, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- That still doesn't state she was the first MP to give birth. NLIST requires it to have been discussed as a group by a set of independent reliable sources and I do not see any group discussing it. I see no evidence of notability of a list of 'firsts'. Traumnovelle (talk) 21:31, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- That's great, tag it with Template:Citation needed. MPs are discussed as a group and first things are notable to mention - not to mention there are dozens of other "lists of firsts". I'm tapping out of this one now, so no need to continue responding to try and push your point further. Turnagra (talk) 23:21, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

Comment As I noted above the New Zealand Parliament website has a section called
- ”Longest serving members of Parliament” [ https://www.parliament.nz/en/visit-and-learn/mps-and-parliaments-1854-onwards/longest-serving-members-of-parliament/ ] which has sections on Longest serving Members of Parliament – Longest, shortest, oldest, youngest, Maori, Asian, Pacific MPs,
- Firsts for women in Parliament including Iriaka Ratana as the first MP to become a mother, Whetu Tirakatene-Sullivan as the first MP to become a mother while Parliament was in session, Jacinda Adern as the first (NZ) Prime Minister to give birth while in office.
Doubtless the Parliamentary staff (Parliamentary Library researchers ) got enquiries from both visitors and other MPs, and wanted a reliable source! Hugo999 (talk) 05:07, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per the lists at [9] - this isn't random TRIVIA but is normal statistics of who has served in the legislature, and any cleanup of being discriminate (most of it is) can be performed in editing. NLIST requires sources, this is source-able. SportingFlyer T·C 04:49, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Completely unreferenced list of entirely redlinked or unlinked people. As always, the core purpose of a Wikipedia list is to help readers find Wikipedia articles, so a list of mayors has to have at least some blue links in it -- it appears from the edit history that a couple of the most recent mayors had articles in the past, but they've all been deleted so that this is now entirely a list of unlinked names. As well, lists still have to be properly referenced just the same as any other article, but this features no referencing at all.
I'm willing to withdraw this if somebody with more knowledge of the subject area, and better access to sources that would verify the mayors' names and terms, is willing to tackle cleaning it up, but it can't be retained as an unreferenced list with no bluelinks in it.

- Redirect (or delete, either would be appropriate) The references added since the original nomination all fall under the banner of WP:LOCALCOVERAGE (since most are from the local council newspaper) or non-independent sources. There are two references to the club from the website of the Herald Sun, which ostensibly meets the threshold of being a major statewide newspaper – but a closer look would suggest that those are both the 'Local Footy' section of the newspaper's website, which tends to be an online mirror of affiliated council newspapers – plus they're quite WP:ROUTINE.

Lacks references other than external links to the subject's own sites/publications. Reads like a resume of her career, as in the list of grants, and an advert for her published works. No examination or analysis of her work and significance, if any, nor independent discussion of her relationship to the pantheon of modern poets/authors. A WP:BEFORE search turns up just her books and news reports of one incident in Fall, 2023, when she resigned in protest over the Israel-Hamas war. Fails WP:GNG, and WP:BIO.

Non-notable student publication that fails WP:GNG and WP:NJOURNALS. I cannot find sufficient sources to establish even the basic facts (like whether this student-run journal is even still operating). The only source I can find, that contains anything at all, is the publication's own (wordpress) website. And that hasn't been updated since mid-2019. Five years ago. Where is the indication that this short-lived(?) journal is "considered by reliable sources to be influential in its subject area", or "frequently cited by other reliable sources", or "historically important in its subject area"? Where is the coverage in independent/reliable/verifiable sources? I certainly can't find any. An entry in the "Information Matrix for the Analysis of Journals" says that it "does not reach the inclusion threshold" (as its distribution/circulation is too low?). It is also hard to overlook that the article was seemingly created by a COI/SPA contributor (in quasi-promotional format about its 10th edition).... Guliolopez (talk) 16:25, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

A poorly sourced list of largely unrelated statistics. No idea why it jumps from 1946 to 1997, no idea where the number of snowstorms comes from, no idea why we would add the number of tropical cyclones (extreme weather events) to the number of tornadoes (for the most part very local, very minor events) and not count e.g. the number of rainfall-induced floods instead. While comparing the number of US tornadoes or the number of cyclones year by year is done and may be useful, this grouping of these statistics in a kind of novel synthesis with very unclear inclusion rules doesn't seem particularly encyclopedic.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Delete. The article exaggerates the relationship between two teams who have played each other only 38 times in the English Football League (EFL). They have never met in either of the FA Cup or the EFL Cup. The only time they met outside of standard league fixtures was in a two-legged playoff semi-final in 2009. The article says this supposed rivalry began in October 2007 when Millwall fans went on the rampage in Leeds. As everyone knows, Millwall fans are notorious for rampage and one incident in Leeds does not automatically create an acknowledged "rivalry".
The only London clubs with which Leeds have had any kind of "rivalry" are Chelsea, Arsenal, and to some extent Spurs. As far as matches against Millwall are concerned, they mean nothing more than a match against the likes of Charlton Athletic, Leyton Orient, QPR, etc.
The teams met twice last season in the EFL Championship and I am not aware of any sources which reported those games in the sense of a rivalry. See the [18] and [19] BBC reports which do not convey any special connection between the clubs—unlike when Liverpool play Manchester United, for example. That is because this supposed rivalry does not exist.
If the article has any use as a head-to-head history of matches played by the two clubs, then it should be renamed and given a fresh perspective to provide a true context. PearlyGigs (talk) 13:28, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- Probably keep Yep, it's more of a head to head with routine coverage, yes Millwall will always be Millwall and the supporters do tend to get a reputation, however they have had a little bit of a rivalry at times. I am inclined to keep the article, I feel there is enough on there to show what it's is referring too, especially since the rise of hooliganism. And the article is incredibly well sourced. Govvy (talk) 17:27, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- I agree a lot of work has gone into it, including citations, but the sources are of the head-to-head and routine match coverage variety. There is little if anything in the sources that justifies the presentation of this subject as a keen rivalry which is evident whenever these teams meet. Rivalries are usually derby matches as in Old Firm, Merseyside, Manchester, or North London. For two teams this far apart, we need much more than a couple of hooliganism incidents and one play-off semi-final. Leeds missed promotion last season by losing to Southampton in the playoff final following another defeat by Saints at the end of the league season. On that basis, it could be argued that there is a Leeds/Southampton rivalry. PearlyGigs (talk) 18:29, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- The nominator PearlyGigs claims, "The teams met twice last season in the EFL Championship and I am not aware of any sources which reported those games in the sense of a rivalry." Yet, the second result on Google for a 'Leeds Millwall rivalry' search is a NY Times article written on 17 September 2023, covering the rivalry in depth after the first meeting in the 2023–24 season. I have now added this reference to the wiki, as it gives a great history of why they are rivals.
- Leeds rivalry with Millwall is much more current than their rivalry mentioned with Chelsea, which seems to have been defunct since the 1980s. Leeds and Chelsea have played nine times in the last 20 years. Leeds and Millwall have played 30 times over the same period, and their rivalry is far more relevant. There is a Channel 5 tv documentary called CCTV Cities which covers the rivalry from the perspective of West Yorkshire police, who consider Millwall fans the hardest to police because of the rivalry.
- PearlyGigs only referenced two random BBC articles and their personal opinion as a reason for deletion of a Wikipedia article. The article is not exagerrated and is well referenced from both sides of Leeds and Millwall. I have added more references too, including quotes from Leeds and Millwall managers.TheLostBoy (talk) 17:53, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- You need to make sure that the article has extensive sourcing to verify an assertion (i.e., that there is a rivalry) which was always likely to be challenged.
- The choice of the two BBC articles was not random, by the way. BBC match reports are generally high quality, compared with tabloid rubbish, and they do tend to set the scene. If you read any BBC report on a Liv/ManU match, you will soon be aware if you didn't already know that those two teams are playing for bragging rights as well as points. The BBC reports on last season's Leeds/Millwall matches are routine coverage only, no different from the reports of Leeds' matches against Cardiff, QPR, Stoke, whoever. PearlyGigs (talk) 18:43, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- The last two BBC articles on Chelsea vs Leeds makes no mention of a rivalry, 1, 2. Does that mean there isn't one? Heavily policed fixtures with changed kick-off times rarely have incidents now. You ignored the NY Times article on the history of the rivalry by Phil Hay, a local Leeds journalist who covered the club for 18 years.
- Also, with your reasoning regarding far apart rivalries, the Brighton & Hove Albion F.C.–Crystal Palace F.C. rivalry should be deleted since the whole article is basically H2H stats with minimal citations on why they are rivals. This article does have extensive sourcing about multple incidents throughout the last 20 years, not just hooliganism or a play-off semi. See Istanbul chant, Saville chant, Ankergren assault. There is more and a ton of stuff online about the rivalry. I'll add when I have time. TheLostBoy (talk) 20:24, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Fair enough. I'll leave it with you. By the way, our "rivalries" with ManU and Chelsea really do belong in the Revie Era. I would always maintain that our greatest rival of those years was Liverpool, but Revie was a close friend of Bill Shankly so it gets downplayed. PearlyGigs (talk) 21:36, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
This article seems to be highly OR in terms of what is considered a "Luigi video game." A quick BEFORE yields little to no results for an overarching series bar Luigi's Mansion, which seems to be notable as a separate series. However, every other entry just happens to be every time Luigi starred in a game, with no clear reasoning as to if it's meant to count as a "series" or not. (As no source I can find links together a Game & Watch Luigi game and Mario is Missing! to any of Luigi's later solo games, for example) The Luigi's Mansion series seems notable, but every other entry this list doesn't seem to have the citations needed to really verify that they're part of a series of video games, nor do they verify that these games are even notable as a group beyond starring Luigi in them. The current article feels very unneeded, given there's nothing claiming notability for this being a notable sub-category of games, and a grouping of video games that just so happen to star a notable character just doesn't hold water. Even if the article were to be focused on Luigi's Mansion, it would need a complete TNT. This list feels better off deleted, with a Luigi's Mansion series article being made if editors find that the subject can be made into a separate article, but the concept of "Luigi video games" just doesn't seem to hold weight as either a series or as a notable sub-collection of videogames. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 04:22, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment - I could definitely see this as a useful article. The reader (mainly gamers) would be able to tell which games are more focused on Luigi even if there is no leading "Luigi" title for game (ex. Mario Is Missing!). However I do think it should have been created after there were more than 15 installments, rather than 9. I feel like it leans more on the Luigi's Mansion series for notability. Sackkid (talk) 04:31, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- These are definitely a lot of my problems with the current list. There's very few entries, most are unrelated to each other bar a shared protagonist, and it leans heavily on the Luigi's Mansion series as it's the only really notable "series" there. If people want to see what games Luigi featured in, his navbox is still there (Even if that also needs work) or, at worst, this article could be lightly merged into Luigi's article, so that way those interested in seeing Luigi's starring games can find them there. (Not my preferred outcome, but definitely an idea if people feel it worthwhile). Outside of the Luigi connection, these games don't really hold much water as a group, and a guy starring in a set of games does not make that subcategory of games separately notable.

- Keep Are we really claiming the Luigi games aren't a spinoff? Seriously? Nintendo even did a Year of Luigi promo which is currently a Good Article. While it's not as large a sub-series as Mario, trying to deny it exists boggles the mind and we certainly aren't hard-up for hard drive space that would necessitate folding it into the Mario series. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 04:53, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- I literally cannot find sources indicating it exists under one banner, and outside of Luigi's Mansion, the only separate game series I can find relating to Luigi is Mario & Luigi, which is a separate series and not entirely focused on Luigi. As it currently stands, the list is just a miscellaneous assortment of games starring Luigi with no verification of the series' own separate notability. Compare this to something like Wario (series) or List of Yoshi video games, which have multiple successful series that can be verified even with a quick Google search. You are right in saying that these games are spin-offs, but they aren't really tied together in a way that shows inherent notability bar happening to be associated with Luigi.
- As a note, Year of Luigi doesn't really focus on the Luigi games as one series, with the games released under that year being variations of pre-existing games. Dr. Luigi is a spin-off of the Dr. Mario series, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team is a single entry of the wider Mario & Luigi series, and the various Luigi "remixes" are just variations of pre-existing games. There was a focus on games having Luigi in a starring role, but trying to say that immediately makes a random collection of games notable is like saying Shadow the Hedgehog has his own series because he's had big roles in several games and had a whole year dedicated to him as well. Luigi's Mansion is really the only one here that can be uniquely verified as part of a wider, notable branch of games. A list like this is the equivalent of attempting to make a "List of Pikachu games" and just lining it up with Pikachu's assortment of unrelated spin-off games that aren't branched under one umbrella (Games, for example, like Hey You, Pikachu! and Detective Pikachu (video game) focus on the character, but are not part of an umbrella franchise starring the character like characters like Yoshi and Wario are).
- My problem with this list is not a matter of "trying to deny the Luigi games are spin-offs" or some bizarre thing like that, but rather that this list doesn't verify how the games featuring him are individually notable of the original Mario franchise, nor does it contain sourcing verifying the Luigi games as one major umbrella property like other notable Mario characters happen to have. This list is simply unverifiable. If you or anyone else can dig up sources noting these games are part of one whole umbrella, with notability and description inherently separate from the Year of Luigi or the Luigi character, then I'd be happy to withdraw since I just happened to miss stuff in my search. But right now as it stands, the list just lacks the things it needs to really meet guidelines and justify a split off any other article. I do hope this clears up my viewpoint a bit.

- Leaning keep but I see where the nom is coming from. Luigi is too interlinked with Mario (being his sidequick) to really rise to stand-alone Wario (series) or List of Yoshi video games status, but he's also further along than Princess Peach and Toad (Mario) (who both have several games named after them but no sub-franchise article). It seems Nintendo keeps pushing for a new stand-alone franchise, even if it's currently mostly Mansion. Since Mansion doesn't have an overarching series article yet (but could have) and instead hatnote-links to this list, I'd rather keep this list and see where Nintendo takes it, until we can decide how to best present the information. – sgeureka t•c 07:16, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

- Delete I do agree that something like this might have potential (specifically the potential for a Luigi's Mansion series page), but I'm also agreeing with Pokelego's stance on how to handle this. It's hard to tell what exactly a "Luigi video game" is, and this list has nothing worth saving even in the event a Luigi's Mansion series article, or something on the lines of that, is created. λ NegativeMP1 16:40, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Luigi's game appearance are covered on Luigi#Appearances and I think the article is below WP standards as is. But considering the Mario franchise has similar lists like List of video games featuring Mario, I don't think the scope of this AfD can resolve anything. IgelRM (talk) 18:40, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- That list very much feels like it fails Wikipedia:INDISCRIMINATE given it's covering every time a video game happens to feature Mario, one of the most iconic characters of all time who is so frequently referenced and parodied that a list like this seems very useless in terms of use. It feels like it'd be better off rebranded to being a list of Mario franchise videogames, but that feels like a separate discussion that would take place outside of the scope of this AfD.

- Redirect to Luigi#Appearances. Agreed with the nom that there isn't a "Luigi series" and that this list presents original research issues in implying such a series exists apart from appearances of the character. The alternative to deletion is to redirect to the existing section on Luigi appearances, which is what a reader looking for this topic would be least astonished to arrive. czar 02:38, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- It falls under WP:COMMONSENSE given that all the games both have Luigi in the title and star him as a main character. Original research is going out and confirming something that isn't obvious.

- If these can't be verified as unified group, then it's just a collection of every game Luigi's happened to star in with no other real connecting thread. Yes, we can verify these games happen to star Luigi, but that's not really the point of this. The point is that this list simply is not verifiable as defining what a "Luigi video game" is, nor is it able to show why this subset of games is notable beyond happening to focus on Luigi. The collection of games themselves are not unified by a connecting thread like other Mario series articles, such as Yoshi or Wario, and no sources verify if they can be. This list simply does not meet Wikipedia's standards. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 16:17, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Exactly. If there is no "Luigi series" and this is a list of games featuring Luigi, then we should view it as a summary style split from Luigi#Appearances. I don't think the sourcing warrants the split. czar 18:19, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
- This source has Miyamoto referring to the Year of Luigi titles as "Luigi games", which appears to show that their creator views them as a single group even outside the Luigi's Mansion series. That's confirmation enough for me, IMO. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:38, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, but there's no coverage on Luigi games as a group.

- Keep. It's literally what it claims to be: a list of games where Luigi is the lone lead character. It doesn't claim to be a "series", so I'm not sure why the nom thinks that should be relevant. There are plenty of articles that list related media together without them being an actual "series". Not all of the games in List of video games featuring Batman are a part of one series, for instance.128.151.71.8 (talk) 19:07, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- I bring up the series argument to show how there is no real explicit reason why this list is notable. A list that consists of games that happen to have Luigi as the protagonist is an indiscriminate collection of information unless sources touch on it. The sources do not support separate notability, neither as a series of games, nor as a collection of games. Also, see Wikipedia:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Just because we have other articles on similar subjects does not mean this list is suddenly exempt from the standards of notability, as there are plenty of similar lists that don't meet standards running around. (I will note the Batman one is pretty low quality- like, it's using GameFAQs as a source, for example. I do feel there's potential grounds to improve that list given Batman itself is a franchise, and Batman has several notable game series, but I wouldn't know where to begin on that. Luigi's list doesn't have much of a hope of improvement bar Luigi's Mansion, which can just be split off from the rest should other editors decide that's beneficial for readers, per the above arguments on the list's contents.)

I don't think a mention is due on Dashur, and I don't think anyone searching for this name will be well-served by a redirect, either. -- asilvering (talk) 23:35, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Non-notable award. References are all announcements of winners and the majority are unreliable, falling under WP:NEWSORGINDIA. A WP:BEFORE was unable to locate significant coverage that talks about the reward itself. CNMall41 (talk) 03:05, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Journalism, Awards, and India. CNMall41 (talk) 03:06, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep but move: It looks like these should be written as "RedInk Awards". I don't see WP:NEWSORGINDIA really applying here: These are awarded by the Mumbai Press Club, so any reporting is unlikely to be paid. Coverage of almost any journalism award is going to be a little iffy on independence due to sources written by journalists with personal and organisational interests, memberships, and possibly voting participation (although these ones are juried). If the Mumbai Press Club had an article -- and I'm not sure it should -- I'd be happy with a merge to section. In the absence of that ATD, because there is post-event reporting in national sources and the awards presenters have included a Chief Justice of India, a State Governor, a State Chief Minister, and a federal Minister (indicating a particular level of repute)[20][21][22][23][24], and it's reasonable for the awards to [continue to] be listed at recipients' articles and this list article facilitates interlinking, I'm landing on retention (possibly slight WP:IAR). ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 13:12, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- I was looking for a good redirect as an WP:ATD but unfortunately one does not exists. "Press Trust of India" and "News Express Service" bylines fit the definition of NEWSORGINDIA 100% though. I am wondering which ones you feel do not fall under that criteria as I would be happy to go back and look (I may have missed something). I think it would be more of WP:ATA as opposed to WP:IAR. --CNMall41 (talk) 20:21, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

Don't need separate season article for this, as it's just a bunch of friendly matches without substantial coverage. The sources are mostly just match results rather than significant coverage, so doesn't pass WP:GNG independently from the general FIFA Series article I.e. sources about the history/creation are useful for GNG on the main FIFA Series article, but do not prove that an individual season article is needed.

Fails WP:NOT, WP:NCORP, WP:NLIST.
WP:NOT is failed because this is a complete listing of the services of a company. As such it is excluded under WP:NOTCATALOG no. 6 which states that "Listings to be avoided include [...] products and services"
. It is also an indiscriminate listing - all destinations ever flown to, however briefly, are listed without any attempt to summarise them which is against WP:IINFO.
WP:NCORP (which applies to the services of companies as well as the companies themselves) is failed because none of the sources here are independent, third-party, reliable sources. This article is largely unsourced, and has been since at least 2011, but the part that is sourced is sourced to old airline-issued timetables, the company website, press releases, enthusiast blogs like airlineroute.net, or to run-of-the-mill articles in trade-press. Sources that clearly pass WP:ORGIND are needed, but none are present.
WP:NLIST is failed because none of these sources are independent, third-party, reliable sources giving significant coverage to the topic of the services this airline offers as a group. FOARP (talk) 09:27, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Unnecessary WP:CFORK of teams that never was independently notable and existed solely to the short-lived series, serving to only the most ardent fans per WP:FANCRUFT as a Wikiproject taskforce was active for it.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Basically a WP:REDUNDANTFORK of Gaza humanitarian crisis.
More importantly, off all the given sources, only a single one (The National) uses the term "epidemic" in its own voice, with 2 more quoting the Gaza Health Ministry's declaration of an epidemic. RS hasn't been using the term epidemic (probably because as of now there haven't been any confirmed cases yet. There are strong fears of a coming epidemic, and polio has been found in the sewage, but thankfully no infections). At the very least the article needs to be considerably shortened, and name changed to "Polio discoveries" or something. Violates Crystal Ball. It's also not being (significantly) covered by RS on its own, but rather as part of the broader crisis. Hydromania (talk) 03:44, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to Gaza humanitarian crisis - Wouldn't be opposed to recreating the article later if more sources begin to call the Polio issue an epidemic, but a redirect would suffice for right now. Jdcomix (talk) 13:33, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Redirecting the current title if the term "epidemic" is not being used by multiple reliable sources would violate WP:NDESC. Dclemens1971 (talk) 15:17, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Merge with Gaza humanitarian crisis. My first impression is that we should probably redirect. Now to read with care... Yeah, merge with Gaza humanitarian crisis. Darkfrog24 (talk) 21:24, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Move or merge. There are plenty of reliable sources with significant coverage, so deleting it isn’t warranted. If kept, a move or rename to 2024 Gaza Strip polio outbreak or the like would be appropriate. I don’t oppose the merger, however the main article could get filled with a lot of more important and less important trivia; see what happened at one time to Palestinian law. Bearian (talk)

- Comments There maybe enough for some basic form of WP:GNG pass, I found sources, [25] (primary source), [26], [27], [28], [29], [30] (primary) , [31], [32], this one has a few hits on britsonpole.com which might be useful. [33], [34], [35]. Need I go on, there are a lot of hits to digest. There are more online, what kind of WP:BEFORE did you do? Besides, you talk a load of codswallop, I looked at your nominations just now, and the work load you did. It's nothing short than just, I don't like this shit so I am going to nominate all these articles for AfD. I don't disagree there are problems with these articles, but your process and this nomination, and the rest you've done. Well, you should be reported to WP:ANI for the process. You are not here to build an encyclopaedia. Govvy (talk) 09:56, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- First off all WP:PRIMARY do not count for notability, thus are all ignored. Reviewing them, this is what I say in WP:RS
- [36] - about the series, which gives more weight for the series, not the team
- [37] - about the partnership between F1 and the eponymous football team, the 'team' has pitiful amount of coverage to it. A regurgitation of article provided below.
- [38] - again WP:PRIMARY - do not count for notability.
- [39] - same as above, another regurgitation of press releases
- [40] - primarily about the series, far less about the series
- [41] - as above, another regurgitation of press releases
- britsonpole.com - same I mentioned below
- [42] is another WP:ROUTINE announcement that a team is retaining a driver for another season, does it assert notability for the team? The operating team is notable, no doubt.
- [43] - another announcement, dubious source. More like a site run by hobbyists/student journalist. Very little weight for WP:RS.
- [44] is about the 2010 season with a tiny bit to promote the races as usual as you would expect in local papers. Not much about the 'teams'
- This may help pass in 2010 but this is 2024, so none of these will support the notability of the teams nominated or provide WP:SIGCOV. Given your language here, I shall recommend you to wash your mouth every morning and night with a toilet brush to get rid of those foul language that stains your vocabulary.

- Comment I am not sure I want to reply to you, but you do know there is nothing wrong with primary sources in an article, primary can be used to back up basic facts. You can use primary and secondary sources together to show a notable point. That is a point about facts matching each other. I honestly don't know why so many people forget this. You can break down the sources I provided all you like, I am just showing there are sources that can be used and some basic form that could pass, at what point did I say keep on the comment above, if I truly want an article to be kept, I would put keep in bold at the beginning and not comment!

- I'd be relaxed about a redirect to List of Hong Kong ODI cricketers here - there was a single incoming link from the Geordie Shore chap which indicates there's generally not a major issue here and if necessary a dab page with the two redirects on it can be set up. I'd have thought, however, that the article on CricketCountry would satisfy the last point of SPORTCRIT and there's at least one article on the South China Morning Post from 2016, although it's partly behind a paywall. There's a case that could be made for keeping the article - there's certainly nothing in it that's contentious - there are a lot worse articles than this one that could be brought to AfD. But, again, for me the worst case here is a redirect. Blue Square Thing (talk) 13:28, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Only two potential RS: Guy is RS, the Dina Thanthi source is only cited to a release date change and that seems to be mostly what they publish about movies from what I have seen (could not find the exact article sourced, insufficient info and from 1972).

I believe this page should be deleted due to no encyclopedic value and numerous WP:BLP and Original Research violations that make rescuing this page impossible. Whizkin (talk) 05:29, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Further arguments:
- Overly Broad and Non Educational: Approximately 40% of Israel's population could be included in this list, making it excessively broad (by the way, note that in modern times many people are second or third generation mixed Ashkenazi/Mizrahi origins which further increases the percentage of people that can be included). Israeli Jews can be much better classified by specific country of origin (and indeed we have such categories). Furthermore broadly categorizing random, secular individuals based on their supposed ethnic origin reduces people's identities to simplistic binary labels that offer no value. For example, the fact that Gilad Shalit is Ashkenazi is completely meaningless.
- Vague classification: Jewish identities, particularly in Israel, do not always fit neatly into categories like Ashkenazi, Mizrahi, or Sephardi. These labels are tied to religious traditions that go back hundreds of years and do not necessarily correspond to specific countries of origin. For example, a person of Georgian Jewish descent could be either Ashkenazi or non-Ashkenazi, not to mention the many people that have a mixed heritage.
- Inaccurate and Original Research : The vast majority of non-observant Jews on this list do not have reliable sources confirming their classification as Ashkenazi. For many individuals, there is no direct citation that verifies their inclusion in this category. Attempting to infer whether a person is Ashkenazi based on their last name, or even their parent's country of origin constitutes original research. Not to mention that many of the inferences are plain wrong, such as in the cases of Mili Avital and Zefania Carmel. This is also a major BLP violation which alone should result in deleting most of the people on the list.
- Offensive and Bordering on Racist: Classifying individuals, particularly secular Jews, and Jews of mixed heritage, as Ashkenazi or Mizrahi/Sephardi without their self-identification can be seen as offensive. The page risks causing harm by labeling people in ways that they may not identify with.
- For these reasons, this page is harmful, does not serve a meaningful purpose and should be deleted. Whizkin (talk) 05:42, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Suggest redirect to List of FC Barcelona Femení players. None of the sources in the article focus on the subject specifically (fails WP:SIGCOV), just as one member of a team. The team was notable, and several individual members are independently notable – but Mínguez does not appear to be one of them. I feel like WP:SPORTBASIC applies without needing to consider the weight of a potential role in women's history, as the sources that do mention her as part of the team, don't suggest she had any greater role than simply being part of the team.
Furthermore, parts of the article that are about the team and their historic first match, appear to be copy-pasted from other articles about notable teammates (e.g. Lolita Ortiz), while the paragraph about the 50th anniversary of the match appears to be close paraphrasing – if not direct machine-translated copyvio – of the source (a primary source that is the main source used in the article, too). All in all, there is more focus on the match and the team and passing mentions that Mínguez was involved. Not sufficient for an article. Kingsif (talk) 01:28, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

- Keep and keep improving. @Kingsif: It is behind a paywall, but this 2021 article in El Periódico is focused on Maria Antònia Minguez and Sandra Paños gets it over the line for me. There are also other articles cited in Catalan Wikipedia worth checking out. Looks like not enough WP:BEFORE. Cielquiparle (talk) 05:53, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- No, I've read that source, Mínguez and Paños discuss how Mínguez joined the club (ad in newspaper) and then just about the environment of women's football has changed. It's not about her or her career, it's just including her in a story of how Barça Femení grew from where it started to be in the Champions League. And probably only including her because the current player they got to take part was the goalkeeper. Trust me, I've done BEFORE.
Like, this isn't to say Mínguez was not important for the team, but that she does not meet Wikipedia notability standards as she is only ever mentioned in sources in relation to "DYK Barça Femení was founded in 1970 and she was the goalie". Especially when that is all we can say of her notability, we should likewise keep our coverage in relation to the 1970 Barça Femení team. Other players from that team were much more actively involved in e.g. management and promotion, and are more worthy BIO/BLP candidates, but that does not mean every player warrants their own (largely copy-and-paste of the generic team details) bio.

That the Friesland list has had to be split into several sub-lists is determined by the amount of templates that can be included before the limit size is exceeded. There are over 100 lists of windmills, many of which include all mills. Are we to delete those too? Mjroots (talk) 15:28, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- The individual entries don't need to be notable if the group is notable, and even then "editors may, at their discretion, choose to limit large lists by only including entries for independently notable items or those with Wikipedia articles." A list which needs to be split in 9 separate pages is a large list, and a discussion whether this isn't overkill (assuming the group is notable) is perfectly acceptable, independent of whether we have other lists of windmills or not (I note that many of these other lists seem to be limited to still existing windmills, not including the often shortlived ones from the past). Fram (talk) 15:37, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- The majority of the UK windmills lists cover all known windmills. Mjroots (talk) 15:52, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- And articles like List of windmills in North Brabant cover only the existing ones, no idea what your point is or how this is relevant for this AfD discussion. Fram (talk) 16:08, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- The intention is for all Netherlands windmills lists to cover all mills. Also Belgium as their mills are also well documented. It is easier to verify mills standing than those not standing, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to cover those lost. We've both said our piece, now let's let other editors have their say.

- Condense down to a single list of the entries that have their own articles, as a reasonable navigation aid (as much as I think that gets overused, it's actually pretty appropriate here). Otherwise, this is just a massive database dump. It may or may not even be reasonable to combine all the separate province lists into a single list for the whole country, but I'll remain ambivalent on that one. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 16:19, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep all as they are reliably documented, and the list is too long to be in one article. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:12, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- WP:VNOT. This isn't a valid keep argument and doesn't address the concern that this essentially just a massive database copy/dump. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 18:43, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- delete as WP:COPYVIO I have to agree with Fram: making an inferior copy of someone else's database is really not within our purview. There's probably some WP:NOT guideline covering that aspect, but the fact that it is a copy of only some of the fields doesn't ameliorate that it is a comprehensive copy of every entry. And without that copying there's really nothing here, as it is the sole source for it would appear well over 90% of the entries. I have to think that it's not possible to source this otherwise without repeating the other author's original research. I wouldn't have a problem with the obviously much smaller list of surviving mills, for which the copied database could be used as a source for certain information. But in this case we are just stealing someone else's work, even if we aren't stealing all of it and that theft was not the intent. Mangoe (talk) 13:00, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
- Comment - I contest the claim of copyvio. As for the one source claim, the DHM database itself draws on many sources. Thus the lists draw on many sources too. For info, the Dutch Wikipedia lists cover all windmills, though they have split by existing and "vanished" mills. Mjroots (talk) 07:21, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- I hate to say it, but even though I agree with not retaining a copy of the database, facts aren't copyrightable, only the presentation of those facts. Still though, what's essentially a copy is still essentially a copy, and not something we should be hosting. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 18:43, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Use of sample in TV series article and the singer-songwriter one most likely not compliant with 'contextual significance' criterion. Song successful, but uncertain whether a sample is necessary for contextual significance, especially in the theme song one. Contextual significance ≠ portion/song identity. George Ho (talk) 19:19, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- I am not attached to this file, but I doubt that the tone of the TV show can be expressed without this theme song. I believe the sample meets the requirements 1, 2, 3: No free equivalent, Respect for commercial opportunities, Minimal usage. I don't think we have a way to include video so the theme is minimally prototypical of the show. I support removing it from any other uses including John Sebastian. -SusanLesch (talk) 19:46, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Categories
editNEW NOMINATIONS
editCategory:Video games based on Rick and Morty
edit- Nominator's rationale: This category has only two articles. it is better off to move to these two to the desired categories, similarly to how we merged other categories that also had only two articles such as Category:Video games based on the Fairly OddParents QuantumFoam66 (talk) 21:39, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
Category:Sunar
edit- Nominator's rationale: Eponymous category with no content but the eponym. There was one other thing here, but it got draftified for lacking sources, so now the eponym itself is all that's left — and even if the draft got restored to mainspace, this category would still need more than just two things in it to be justifiable anyway. Note, however, that the category has existed since 2011, so I can't tell whether it was always that small or was larger in the past and has been hollowed out by deletions and draftifications and such — but it isn't grandfathered just because of its age, and its oldtimer status just means I can't justify speedying it as a single-entry eponymous category instead of bringing it here for discussion. Bearcat (talk) 18:52, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Category:1783 in Hong Kong
edit- Propose renaming Category:1783 in Hong Kong to Category:1783 in China
- Propose renaming Category:1783 establishments in Hong Kong to Category:1783 establishments in China
- Propose deleting Category:Years of the 18th century in Hong Kong
- Nominator's rationale: Anachronistic category. Hong Kong was not its own thing yet in 1783; it was just straight-up part of China at that time, not its own polity, and did not become a separate entity until 1841. So a thing established in 1783 was not established in "Hong Kong", it was established in China -- and no other year prior to 1841 has "YYYY in Hong Kong" categories at all, so this isn't needed just to anachronistically overcategorize one thing. Categories for that era do exist for China, with this specific year being a redlinked outlier rather than an anachronism, so these can reasonably just be moved to "China" rather than being left at "Hong Kong".

Category:Literary critics by ethnicity
edit- Propose merging Category:Literary critics by ethnicity to Category:Literary critics
- Nominator's rationale: Upmerge for now. There's no need to have a single category isolated like this. Mason (talk) 01:14, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Merge per nom. Marcocapelle (talk) 05:18, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- I created the category because I needed a parent category for Category:Aromanian literary critics. Now it is getting nominated for deletion. Sooner or later someone editing in the Kurdish topic area (for example) will also need this category (unless no Kurdish literary critics have ever existed). They'll create the category and again it will have one single member and find itself here. What is the sense of this? Just leave the category and it will enlarge with time. There is no benefit from this. Super Ψ Dro 09:28, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Now there's another category. Super Ψ Dro 09:48, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Please don't make categories with one page in them. Creating Kurdish literary critics isn't helpful unless you populate it. Mason (talk) 14:53, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Why are you requesting me that I do not create appropriate categories? There must surely be other Kurdish literary critics, this is an ethnic group of around 40 million people. It is not helpful to expect one user to bother addressing arbitrary nitpicks in obscure technical areas of Wikipedia rather than letting the categories naturally grow. Deleting the categories is helpful to exactly zero readers. Super Ψ Dro 16:49, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- I have spent 20 minutes looking through Kurdish writer biographies to find literary critics. The category now has 5 people. There were some other biographies who were described as "critics" which were probably fit for the category but didn't want to risk it because I am not an expert on Kurdish topics. It should have been someone who was, rather than me pushed by an useless nomination, that populated the category.
- Regarding Aromanians I am the author of dozens of Aromanian biographies in Wikipedia. I will eventually get my way to other Aromanian literary critics and use the category. I wouldn't have created the category if I didn't know it'd be included into several biographies in the future. The category will exist in some years anyway and deleting it right now is only to fullfill a false sense of order. I ask not to be pushed into rushing new articles just for the sake of this nomination. This is not the purpose of volunteering at Wikipedia. Super Ψ Dro 17:13, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not suggesting you not make categories that can be populated. I'm asking you to only make categories that you can populate. If you can't take the time to populate a category that you've created when you've created it, that's not fair to other people. Mason (talk) 20:19, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

It should be under Category:Literary critics by language if it concerns an ethnolinguistic group
this is your own opinion. We have many categories of profession and ethnicity. Language and ethnicity are not the same, the latter categories are necessary for stateless groups. In some of the categories at Category:Literary critics by language, there are people not belonging to the ethnic groups that speak those languages. For example at Category:Literary critics of Arabic there are Luc-Willy Deheuvels and Emilio García Gómez. Super Ψ Dro 16:49, 28 July 2024 (UTC)

- Rename per nom. Omnis Scientia (talk) 11:38, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose. Includes many people (e.g. dames, wives of knights and baronets, debutantes, maids of honour) who aren't part of the nobility. These need to be purged from Category:Women nobility as well. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:56, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Fair enough to remove dames etc. from this category tree. That can be done in conjunction with the rename. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:33, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Category:Women nobility is a terrible name and should be renamed Category:Noblewomen (and similarly for relevant subcats). No one uses the phrase "women nobility". Mclay1 (talk) 15:50, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Category:Heroes who ventured to Hades
edit- Propose renaming Category:Heroes who ventured to Hades to Category:Katabasis in classical mythology
- Nominator's rationale: Currently a very poetic name, and ambiguous because Hades can also refer to the god. It's a subcategory of Category:Katabasis (a journey to the underworld). Renaming would expand the scope to depictions of katabasis in classical mythology and not just heroes (the category currently contains Sisyphus, who was not a hero) and not just Greek mythology (the category currently contains Aeneas, whose story was part of Roman mythology). Mclay1 (talk) 15:47, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Largely support, nom makes good points about ambiguity of Hades and the name of the parent category. I would prefer Category:Katabasis in Greek mythology though, simply because Greek mythology has its own category tree where this category can be put under. In that case Aeneas should be moved to Category:Katabasis. Marcocapelle (talk) 19:20, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- That would be fine, though my preference is for categories that have a large overlap between Greek and Roman mythology to be under Category:Classical mythology to avoid duplicating information with separate categories for Greek and Roman mythology or just having one for Greek and leaving out Roman.

Category:List of association football clubs in the Republic of Ireland templates
edit- Option A
- Propose splitting Category:List of association football clubs in the Republic of Ireland templates to Category:Association football clubs in the Republic of Ireland sidebar templates and Category:Association football clubs in the Republic of Ireland navigational boxes
- Option B
- Nominator's rationale: I came across this because it is a category whose name starts with "List of", as that is generally not an applicable name for categories. Each of the templates here is a list, but we usually describe templates listing things as WP:Navigation templates. However, Category:Wikipedia navigation templates is split at the top level into navigational boxes and sidebar templates. It would be appropriate either to do that split here, or simply to rename the category as Category:Association football clubs in the Republic of Ireland templates. – Fayenatic London 13:26, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- If there is no support for a split, then Option B should go ahead by default, as removing "List of" would have qualified for speedy renaming under C2B & C2C. – Fayenatic London 18:51, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

- Nominator's rationale: Per the recent discussion for Category:American veterans activists, the term veterans activist is broader and clearer than veterans' rights acitivist. Veterans activists encompasses veterans' rights acitivists anyway and also opens the category to people who campaign for funding, healthcare, welfare, etc. not just "rights".

- Nominator's rationale: Follow-up of Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2024 August 8#Middle Eastern countries to West Asian countries. West Asia and the Middle East largely overlap, so we do not need both category trees. It is better to keep West Asia because it is consistent with other subcategories in Category:Asian society by region. Purge Egypt if/where needed. Sakakami (talk) 09:59, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Note the existence of populated Category:Grand Treasurers of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (pl:Kategoria:Podskarbiowie wielcy litewscy). It is the only category of that type populated on en wiki (on pl they are all populated - see already mentioned pl:Kategoria:Podskarbiowie, - and this is likely the case for lt and few other wikis). @Marcelus - pinging you in case you'd feel like creating those cates and populating them. PS. Perhaps, since the template in this category is Crown Court Treasurers, we should just rename this category as such, and populate? The corresponding pl wiki category would be pl:Kategoria:Podskarbiowie nadworni koronni . PPS.

- @Marcelus: in fact I had considered populating the category. However, when reading the articles about the court treasurers listed in the template I found that the articles are mostly very uninformative about what people have done or archieved in their capacity of court treasurer. If someone is capable of expanding the articles a category will become much more informative. Marcocapelle (talk) 21:35, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

editNeologism not mentioned in the target. The term is not mentioned anywhere on Wikipedia. Mia Mahey (talk) 05:40, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- I can see it (and the alternate "Wii-make") being used in some news coverage, most prominently "The Case for Wiimakes", but not nearly enough that it would demand usage in the target article or anything. Not sure it does any harm, but the use case seems limited as well. I guess I lean toward deletion, but not strongly. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 14:18, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- i would ALMOST suggest retargeting to the vaguely klonoa-shaped travesty we were cursed with in 2008 as a half-joke, as that seems to be the primary topic for the entire term (not for a good reason, mind you), but that'd be cheap. as is, no idea if it would be better to retarget it to some list of wii games, add a mention there, or delete, but i'll stick with adding a mention for now cogsan (nag me) (stalk me) 14:35, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: term is mentioned in reliable sources (Nintendo Life, Wired, eurogamer.net). No reason to delete. Obviously not notable on its own but a redirect is warranted. I would support a mention at Video game remake or elsewhere, but that is not needed for this to be kept. C F A 💬 20:13, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

This is not an intuitive redirect, and contrary to the "speedy keep" at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 June 4#Wikipedia:RFZ, while "Request(s) for Zzz" might be a reading, that doesn't mean it's generally clear or understood.

Fire and Ash
edit- Fire and Ash → Avatar: Fire and Ash (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
A user created and redirected to the upcoming Avatar franchise film, whose title was revealed in the past week [52]. This, for me, shouldn't be redirected this way because of WP:RECENTISM. Would suggest to convert it back to the DAB page without disambiguator, and wait for a couple years from film's release before having this as WP:PRIMARYTOPIC again. ScarletViolet tc 11:35, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, because the film is the only article we have with this name. The other items on Fire and Ash (disambiguation) are WP:DABMENTION entries. Avatar: Fire and Ash should get a hatnote, though. - Eureka Lott 15:26, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- The hatnote was improperly removed by the nominator. I have reverted the removal. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:12, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Strong keep as creator The disambiguation page, which was created after the redirect, contains three (previously, two) MOS:DABMENTION entries. In other words, the three other uses of "Fire and Ash" are topics deemed not notable for standalone articles. Currently, Avatar: Fire and Ash is the only article whose title includes the phrase "Fire and Ash", so there is no other subject of comparable notability to be disambiguated with, and the film can be safely deemed the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. In any case, it would be unreliastic to claim that an obscure YA novel, comic book, and graphic novel "could" be as notable as an Avatar film — the chances are near zero.

edit- Joseph Sam Williams → Joseph Williams (musician) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]
Joseph Sam Williams is the name of a non-notable musician that User:Japansonglove and various other sockpuppets constantly try to promote. Article was created by User:Ducdo29, who was eventually globally locked, as a redirect to Joseph Williams (musician). However, the Joseph Williams that the redirect goes to is named Joseph Stanley Williams. In my opinion, Sam and Stanley are not similar enough to cause confusion and this redirect is both unnecessary and just a way to promote the non-notable musician.

- Template:Move topicon (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
No transclusions except in one editor's sandbox. Proposed in 2020, apparently, but not used anywhere. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:39, 30 July 2024 (UTC)
- To clarify on the "proposed in 2020" bit, here's the history as best as I can reconstruct it. In April 2020 Sdkb noted that the RM banner is relatively disruptive from a UX perspective and proposed a change to the banner. Generally there are three main issues with the RM banner which still apply in 2024 which I'll give in order of increasing severity.
- Unlike banner issues such as NPOV or inadequate sourcing, page titling is an editorial concern irrelevant to most readers. It contributes to banner blindness, and it immediately distracts the reader from trying to find the information they came to the page for.
- It brings a lot of noise to move discussions on highly trafficked pages. Our page titling criteria (e.g. COMMONNAME) and consensus based decision making (i.e. NOTAVOTE) are not well understood by the general public. Having closed a lot of requested moves including the 2020 Kyiv rename, closing becomes harder when you have a high volume of "ILIKEIT" comments and exceptionally so when it is on an active, high-profile, or geopolitical topic. This slows down the RM process and leads to the banner being up even longer which amplifies the first problem.
- The current RM banner and process are an effective vector for political campaigns to influence public opinion without actually needing to move the page. As a case study, take the inciting incident for this template which concerned the title of Joe Biden sexual assault allegation which had 4 RMs in 1 month. Biden supporters wanted to focus on the allegation by Tara Reade and pushed for leaving Biden's name out of the title and using the singular rather than the plural; Biden opponents wanted to highlight Biden and other less substantiated allegations by including his name and using the plural. Ultimately I think we got the call right, but the problem wasn't making the right call: for over a week while this RM was active we advertised in Wikipedia's voice, without citation, that a major candidate for public office may have engaged in multiple sexual assaults. I think that's a bad outcome, but it's remarkably easy to pull off: just start a "good-faith" move discussion and you get free advertising for your unverified POV on any page you like no matter how high traffic for 7 days (or longer if it attracts enough noise to make finding a closer difficult).
- With all this as background, Netoholic suggested converting the RM notification from a page banner to what MediaWiki calls page status indicators and {{Move topicon}} was my attempt at implementing it. There was a technical problem with the template which caused it to stall out after a request to modify common.css, and given the pandemic at the time and other priorities I think it fell off everyones' radar. For the reasons above, I think it's still a viable initiative and worth keeping around in case someone wants to pick it up. — Wug·a·po·des 22:49, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

- Template:Newyorkerize (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
This template violates accessibility guidelines, specifically Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Accessibility#Text, as screen readers will vocalize the diaereses, rendering the words unintelligible. I can confirm this is the case, as I tested the template by installing a text-to-speech web browser extension. Amendment: I may have incorrectly filed this, as my nomination was not for deletion but for discussion, as this is a templates for discussion. The issue isn't the mere use of the diaereses but its non-standard application of them, which would be vocalized by text readers. Svampesky (talk) 03:21, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- I did not invent the diæresis. It's been part of the English language for at least a century; if there is an accessibility issue with people using uncommon orthography, this is something which needs to be resolved either by the embedding of metadata (e.g. setting a non-printing tag with correct pronunciation) or the improvement of screen-reading software. In either case, I posit it would be better to better handle this case through a coöperative endeavour, rather than immediate deletion of any template which (within five hours of its creation) does not emit perfectly compliant accessibility-supporting output to all software ever written. jp×g🗯️ 04:44, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- Not commenting on the issue, just this text:
or the improvement of screen-reading software
. That isn't something that can happen in a Wiki discussion. If there is an issue with screen readers and something we do (even if it is correct), we should stop doing it until the issue on their end is resolved. Gonnym (talk) 07:56, 6 August 2024 (UTC)- Off the top of my head -- we once had a user named ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ; we currently have a user named ජපස (his name is not even written like that irl, he just uses the letters). We have user signatures featuring stuff like "×", "🗯️", "☏", "¢", "😼", and the utterly cursed "𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇" -- we have people who use diacritics and diæresis on Latin characters in articles, talk page discussions and their own names. If it is in any way incumbent on us to avoid ever using characters outside of the standard ASCII set, this comes as extremely significant news to me. jp×g🗯️ 08:16, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- This is backwards. The burden is on screen-reading software to parse text as it exists correctly out in the world, not on us to change otherwise correct content to make it screen reader compatible. Sdkb talk 15:28, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
- Not commenting on the issue, just this text:
- Keep. There's almost certainly better ways to go about this than immediately flagging something for deletion without so much as trying to consult the person that made the template first or even just creating a discussion about it on the talk page. Neo Purgatorio (talk) 05:10, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep on principle. Nominating a potentially useful, and decently documented, template seven hours after its creation is too bitey (link for explanation of WP jargon; I know that JPxG is not a newcomer). – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:07, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- I do not find the accessibility argument the nominator made persuasive. However, I'm struggling a bit to see the utility of this template, as we don't really use the New Yorker style. Why did you create it, JPxG? I'm inclined to keep it if there's any valid reason, even if just for humor (templates are fairly cheap), although I'd consider adding
{{subst only}}
to the doc. Sdkb talk 15:31, 8 August 2024 (UTC) - Delete. I honestly can't see a realistic purpose for this template. It's not going to be used in mainspace (points in the general direction of WP:MOS), and anyone who wants to go the length of doing something like this elsewhere will know what to do anyway.

- Template:Hamas history (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
This template also has a poorly defined function per WP:TG. Contrary to its name of "Hamas history," it seems to be an indiscriminate collection of information about "Hamas members," including their positions and years and places of birth and death. For some reason there is also an assassination-like map attached to the template. It is also unsourced and fails four of the WP:NAVBOX guidelines. It should be deleted. Makeandtoss (talk) 14:11, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep FourPi (talk) 04:00, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- I was intending to change the template page name to "Hamas members", I had already changed the displayed title, but I assume moving it during the deletion discussion would cause trouble?
- Which four WP:NAVBOX guidelines does it fail and how? the only one I can see a major problem with is "There should be a Wikipedia article on the subject of the template" but that could be solved fairly easily by either renaming it {{Hamas sidebar}} or creating
List of Hamas membersa new page. - The sources are all in the linked pages. I have only once seen a source in a navbox, so I presumed they were against the style guide? but I can add them if they are allowed?
- It doesn't show assassinations, the map shows birthplaces and family origins (most of them died in Gaza, or outside the range of the map, a map wouldn't show much).
- FourPi (talk) 14:42, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- On second thoughts a list seems inappropriate, it at least needs another name? "List of members" has the "assassination map" feel to it? And I think the template already matches well enough other pages like List of Hamas leaders or Hamas history? We already have a lot of pages about Hamas, we need to sort and link what we have already. Currently {{Hamas sidebar}} seems most fitting, a lot of topics have a comprehensive footer and a summary sidebar? FourPi (talk) 04:00, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep – I think there's no more issue regarding this sidebar. For the sidebar, no need to put the references as per WP:NAVBOX. However, we have to create new page based on this. I totally agree that we maybe can create the List of Hamas members page to fulfilled the guidelines.

- Delete Mostly because based on how its used in the Mohammed Deif it serves no real purpose. It would only be marginally helpful to someone who's trying to learn about Hamas's history through its members, and it slightly assists in navigation for that one purpose. It would be more elegant to have a list of important Hamas members linked in the Hamas template. TimeEngineer (talk) 12:33, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- @TimeEngineer Can you explain what you mean by "how its used in the Mohammed Deif" page? if there are still two very similar sidebars there, then I agree we don't need both, but the lack of other images etc. meant it didn't seem urgent to decide which. FourPi (talk) 12:42, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

The template has poorly defined function per WP:TG. It serves no purpose, has no precedent, and seems to be an indiscriminate collection of information including about their places of birth, their militant operations, their wives, their children, and even their religions. For some reason there is also an assassination-like map attached to the template. It is also unsourced and failed all five of the WP:NAVBOX guidelines namely #4 the existence of its own separate article. It should be deleted. Makeandtoss (talk) 14:06, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep FourPi (talk) 04:02, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- I changed the title to history, because that seemed to better describe the content, this template includes more past figures and fewer current / recent than the one you listed above. But I presume I shouldn't move the page yet?
- It's basic biographical details, their leadership role, birthplace, date of death, etc. The date of death link to the page about it if it is a page to link. Religious diversity within the group is relevant to the topic.
- What do you mean by "unsourced"? Navboxes don't usually include sources? All the info is in the linked pages, with sources. I have left out any information that sources conflicted about in the linked articles, e.g. the dates of birth for many of the leaders of Hamas are disputed, so I've left them out.
- How does it fail all of the navbox rules? the only one it seems to fail definitively is the having a matching main page. But a page could be made. Creating a page seems equally valid as deleting a template to solve the problem of "template doesn't have a page".

Merge per nom. Catfurball (talk) 17:26, 9 August 2024 (UTC)- @Catfurball, merge with what? If anything I was thinking it needs to be split, into one for politicians and another for militants. FourPi (talk) 22:53, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Keep – For this sidebar, I think we might have to do some cleanup like:-
- Removing the irrelevant stuffs like their religion, their wives & children;
- Keeping the important things like their places of birth, their militant operations;
- Adding the major information like their ideology (Islamist, Communist, etc), their political spectrum (Hardline, Centrist, Moderate, etc).
- I think there's no issue on other things.
- Everyone can add more suggestions to improve this sidebar.
- – Thegreatrebellion (talk) 03:59, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you, @Thegreatrebellion.
- Which page do you think it should be linked to? (I was not aware of that rule until Makeandtoss listed it, I had read the relevant parts of the technical guide for navboxes, I hadn't noticed the was also style guide, etc.) The two most relevant pages I have found so far are:
- Both of which help to focus the scope a bit, by excluding some of the fringe groups like Islamist anti-Hamas groups in the Gaza Strip. If there is a modern history article that also possibly fits? FourPi (talk) 05:32, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Thegreatrebellion ideologies probably don't work well on a navbox with no citations, they're too debatable, and extreme or moderate is too subjective.
- But I'll expanded all the acronyms, because "Islamic Resistance Movement" and "People's front…" etc. are somewhat obvious? and official names shouldn't lead to edit wars?
- I've also added a few of the most relevant shared ideologies as a combined list.
- Year founded would also be useful to add.

- @Thegreatrebellion do you know what they might mean by "cleaned and streamlined" and similar comments? I took off things like flags already. I've tried to match the formatting of the other sidebars but it ends up a mess, so I didn't even save it. Palestine is an unusual place and it doesn't fit well in the same lists, but trying to format existing lists the same way is just messy. Can you identify any other ways to make it neater? FourPi (talk) 02:27, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Thegreatrebellion: Can you point out to any precedent of a template on a country's leaders spanning multiple eras? Makeandtoss (talk) 18:55, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- Most political offices in countries that are well-covered on Wikipedia have templates for leaders that go back to whenever the office was established, e.g. {{Prime Ministers of Israel}} {{US presidents}} {{Prime Ministers of India}} The Indian PM template also includes links to: Spouse of the Prime Minister of India, List of things named after prime ministers of India, List of prime ministers of India by previous experience, etc. For Israel there's a template for every ministry, e.g. {{Israeli Education Ministers}} and they all go back to when then office was established, so {{Palestinian leaders}} goes back to the fist leader of each faction. The sub-lists in {{Palestinian leaders}} are factions who have a current leader, or who are currently active, and each goes back to the first leader (with a few gaps left to fill). FourPi (talk) 16:01, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- {{Prime Ministers of Israel}} has their time as leader of a state within India in brackets, like {{Palestinian leaders}} has related pages. FourPi (talk) 02:27, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- We already have {{Template:Palestinian prime ministers}} so this would obviously make no sense and shows how peculiar this scope is without precedent for any other place. Makeandtoss (talk) 09:14, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

FourPi (talk) 16:01, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- There is also {{English, Scottish and British monarchs}} going back to 1603 in two countries (they're in columns). Or if you mean the Mandatory Palestine section? some Israeli templates include thatera too, e.g. {{Israeli elections}} includes 5 from before 1948: 1920 Assembly of Representatives election, 1923 Palestinian Legislative Council election, 1925 Assembly of Representatives election, 1931 Assembly of Representatives election, and 1944 Assembly of Representatives election. FourPi (talk) 16:30, 15 August 2024 (UTC)
- There are also lots of templates of a political ideologies that cover leaders through the whole history of the movement, like my idea of matching {{Palestinian leaders}} to the Palestinian nationalism page, e.g. {{Far-right politics in Australia}} goes from Frank Browne (journalist) and Eric Campbell (political activist) from decades ago, to Avi Yemini and Blair Cottrell who are current, there's also {{communism in India}} {{conservatism in Canada}} {{Irish republicanism}} and others. Big topics have matching end bar {{sidebar}} {{fascism sidebar}} {{liberalism}} {{liberalism sidebar}} and sidebar. Obviously they're not identical, but they're different countries and different ideologies. I've included the information most relevant to politics in Palestine. The others all just have a big decorative graphic at the top, but I don't know what you could easily summarize on a map for any of them? There's nothing very relevant that would fit in the small space? The others are sorted into categories of people, orgs, etc. and they don't pair the people with the orgs. But currently {{Palestinian leaders}} sorting by faction is a similar number of lists organized in a way that makes sense. The others couldn't be organized that way because there are too many organizations and not enough owls from each, some Palestinian factions have been around since the 60s but the Australian far right is a lot less s:table.

- Template:Matt Shakman (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Fails the WP:NENAN rule of five, with only three existing articles. Does not merit a navbox at this time. InfiniteNexus (talk) 04:35, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- Template:Cc-by-sa (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)
Deprecated transclusionless template, and should thus be deleted.
If kept, this could become a disambiguation page for the various CC BY-SA licenses. But I think a disambiguation page is worse than useless: There is no way to know what license the author intended to use for their work, so only the author can fix the error caused by using this template. A template which can literally only be an unfixable problem when used should be deleted. A link in the deletion summary to Category:Creative Commons copyright templates should be a nice way of ensuring people can find the template they are looking for while preventing problematic transclusions.
