List of Batman enemies in other media

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

While the List of Batman family enemies (de facto List of Batman enemies) makes some sense due to popularity of the franchise, this is a weird and small spin-off. What are "other media"? The article suggests it's "not comics", and intends to present a list of characters that debuted outside them (so it's really is a List of Batman enemies that debuted outside the comics). Ok, but how does this meet WP:LISTN? Instead, I am afraid such a categorization meets WP:OR. At best I can suggest this to be merged back to the regular list of Batman's enemies. And I am afraid most if not all entries in Category:Comics characters in other media need similar treatment (see also the recent Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Poison Ivy in other media, which like most of the entries at least doesn't violate OR due to an attempt to list characters that debuted outside comics, but it was still found to be an unneeded split from the main article). _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus|

Delete Information on where characters first appeared is already part of the main Batman enemies list, and the articles on the various movies and tv shows have character or cast lists where these characters are listed, making this list unnecessary.

Merge The first edit to this article was 04:49, 10 July 2008‎ Jc37 talk contribs‎ 11,000 bytes +11,000‎ split from List of Batman enemies. That article is now named List of Batman family enemies and is suppose to list supervillains, but just regular villains without super powers, gadgets, or a history of accomplishments are listed as well there. Most of those listed there without their own article probably could be pruned. Anyway, that list shows the characters first appearance in the column "First appearance". If it matters if they first appeared somewhere else, a new column could be created listing if they were first appearing in comic, television, video game, movie, newspaper, or radio broadcast. Someone could then click to sort by that information if anyone cared. Redirecting this article to there, and if anyone sees any valid information not already there, they can then copy it over. Dream Focus 09:18, 15 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Keep - Per WP:LISTN - "There is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y") or what other criteria may justify the notability of stand-alone lists..." - Sooo, anyone here actually read those policies that you link to? Or are you merely driveby voters? This list was split, per normal splitting of lengthy list pages. See also Wikipedia:Summary style, Wikipedia:Article size. etc. As for its content, this is no different that any other "in other media" section/list/article we see everywhere. As for WP:OR, how exactly is finding out the debut of a character (a single verifiable fact) any sort of WP:SYNTH? Again, do you all actually read these policies? So, so far, not seeing any reason to delete. Instead, just seeing bare assertions with no policy backup. You can not like certain content, but, as we all know. IDONTLIKEIT isn't a valid deletion argument. So please keep your disdainful assertions of "cruft" to yourselves, such nonsense has no place in a consensual discussion. - jc37 09:02, 17 September 2022 (UTC) reply
Comment If you search for "in other media" at Category:Batman in other media you'll find other entries, some of which are just categories for other things, but there are list articles for some of these: Mr. Freeze in other media, Penguin in other media, Poison Ivy in other media, Riddler in other media, Robin in other media, Scarecrow in other media, Catwoman in other media, Bane in other media, Joker in other media, Barbara Gordon in other media, and Two-Face in other media. This article is not like any of them though, nor like any of the other "in other media" articles that exist for other fictional series such as List of Spider-Man enemies in other media. This is not a "in other media" list article, it is a List of first appearances of Batman enemies. If kept the article should be renamed that. I think the information would fit fine in the other article though. Dream Focus 17:12, 17 September 2022 (UTC) reply
I'm not against a rename. Though I'll note that you may run into issues with entries like Barbara Gordon - Depending on the source, she appeared in comics because she was going to appear in the show, or vice versa. - jc37 03:24, 3 October 2022 (UTC) reply

Delete as failing WP:LISTN. Agree with the nom that this categorization is WP:OR. Also agree that this can be merged back into the main article, and a redirect would be a consensus option that would allow this to take place through editing. Shooterwalker ( talk) 22:55, 28 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Delete or redirect. From just a utility standpoint, it seems useless if we don't have articles/list entries on them. It doesn't help the general reader in any meaningful way, and it's not a navigational tool. The characters all seem too minor to even bother listing. The overall topic doesn't have sources to establish notability for the grouping. TTN ( talk) 22:43, 3 October 2022 (UTC) reply

Niacin

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

Newly created disambiguation page based on dodgy splits and renaming. As the two main "stuffs" are both Vitamin B3, why were they split and renamed at all? This serves no purpose. See prior discussion at User_talk:Artoria2e5#Niacin_split_reverted The Banner talk 16:22, 13 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Comment: Until August 24, 2022 there had been "Niacin" (a Good article) and "Vitamin B3" (a small article). Earlier, Artoria2e5 had proposed a split of Niacin on the Talk page and I, as the person who had raised Niacin to GA, opposed. On August 24, Artoria2e5 went ahead with the split, renaming the former "Niacin (substance)" and the latter "Niacin (nutrient)" and moving ~30,000 bytes of content from the former to the latter. I reverted the deletion of content from the former but left the latter, with the added content, intact. In my opinion. Niacin (substance) should revert to "Niacin", Niacin (nutrient) should revert to "Vitamin B3" and this disambiguation page should be deleted. This action would leave "Vitamin B3" as a separate article, with some content duplicated at "Niacin", but no great harm. An alternative that would take some editing work would be to delete "Vitamin B3", first moving useful content and references to "Niacin", and have a redirect for those who search on "Vitamin B3". David notMD ( talk) 16:42, 13 September 2022 (UTC) reply
Comment: Some arguments for the split is linked above by The Banner. The big issue here is that "niacin" is currently the common name for both the nutritional entity with multiple vitamers and the common name for nicotinic acid, the blush-inducing vitamer/drug. The nutritional use is, IMO, the main use, for which Vitamin B3 cannot be treated as a common name. (For other nutrient articles involving multiple vitamers, see Vitamin B6, Vitamin D, and Vitamin E. Folate is a bit of outlier here in that it also describes both concepts merged under the same heading, but it has enough written under "Definition" for clarity -- and the pharmacological action isn't as distinct.) My procedures were questionable, but I still believe that it follows the more in-depth consensus of Talk:Niacin_(substance)#Merger_proposal and the idea that no one in particular owns the article. -- Artoria 2e5 🌉 00:28, 16 September 2022 (UTC) reply

~~Delete~~ and move "niacin (substance)" to "nicotinic acid". I am far more familiar with the concept of "niacin" as a vitamin group and "nicotinic acid" as its own specific chemical within the niacin group (mostly in the context of AchRs), and actually have been irritated by the redirect to "niacin" in the past. Everything that is actually called niacin in other articles should link directly to the niacin (in the vitamin sense) page, and everything that refers to a specific vitamer should link to its own page. If editors are using "niacin" in article text to refer to NA without realizing the ambiguity, that can be dealt with case-by-case. I can't imagine people searching for "nicotinic acid" are actually looking for "niacin" (vitamin) without knowing the latter as the more appropriate search term, but if they are they can just follow the link to that page from "nicotinic acid". Likewise, I don't think anyone searching for "niacin" would be surprised or confused to end up on the vitamin page, and even if they were looking for "nicotinic acid" specifically it's linked right there in the lead sentence (or should be). Therefore, there is no need to have a DAB, much less one necessitating weird, ambiguous parenthetical titles, when the distinction is already straightforward and better-contextualized in the first sentence of the niacin article. JoelleJay ( talk) 03:45, 22 September 2022 (UTC) reply

"Niacin" should still be a standalone page (covering the vitamin), with "niacin (substance)" moved to "nicotinic acid". So the page "niacin" shouldn't be deleted, but the DAB should also not exist. JoelleJay ( talk) 01:14, 28 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Move Niacin (substance) to Niacin (wrong place to discuss moves, I know, but that's what I think should happen instead). According to Pageviews, it seems like the substance is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Niacin (nutrient) was a standalone article before parts of the nutrient were copied the same day as the DAB was created. It seems like the substance was moved but not showing in the logs, which explains why so many pages link to the DAB page. SWinxy ( talk) 20:08, 23 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Keep and expand- I initially leaned delete only source leads to a dead webpage, and all other sources I can find refer to the wikipedia article rather than being straight sources, so a case of circular reporting. He is referenced in Academic Influence, but he appears to be very poorly recognised https://academicinfluence.com/people/ibrahim-halil-baran. He also has a book for sale on Amazon https://www.amazon.de/-/en/%C4%B0brahim-Halil-Baran/dp/6052246685- but the only question is whether this man is the same person https://www.rudaw.net/turkish/kurdistan/010820226 as this source is clearly relevant and noteworthy. I suspect that this is the same person, in which case he is clearly notable as he is a prominent Kurdish politician, and requires expansion of the article to mention his imprisonment.

Keep- Here I found [2] which i also added in the article from This Rotten Tomatoes review page on the movie itself, Which alongside the fact of notable casts like Mithun Chakraborty and Shakti Kapoor being in the movie makes it pass the GNG. Surya^beej ^⋠talk⋡ 09:22, 3 October 2022 (UTC) reply
Delete per Donaldd23. The keep vote appears to misunderstand that being on Rotten Tomatoes (RT) doesn't indicate notability. RT is a database the aggregates reviews from other sites, in this case the film has zero reviews found by RT, and being listed on a database doesn't indicate notability at all, falling under [examples] of coverage insufficient to fully establish notability include newspaper listings of screening times and venues, "capsule reviews", plot summaries without critical commentary, or listings in comprehensive film guides such as Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide, Time Out Film Guide, or the Internet Movie Database. The refs I found are trivial, see 1, 2, so this fails WP:GNG (requiring multiple independent reliable significant sources, not just trivial mentions and databases), and WP:NFILM. Also a note- films don't inherit notability because of notable actors. VickKiang (talk) 22:58, 3 October 2022 (UTC) reply

Comment @ Liz: I thought the removal of a PROD which rejects a soft deletion outcome was based on an editor assuming to oppose deletion by its removal? In this instance the deletion nominator was the only (de)PRODder and thus no one has actually contested it? Bungle ^{(

I'm going to have to re-re-read those guidelines. I don't remember it being important WHY a PROD tag was removed, just that after the PROD tag has been removed, the article can't be considered for a PROD a second time. And a Soft Deletion is basically treating an AFD closure as if it was a PROD deletion. So, if since this article has gone through the PROD-De-PROD-Sent to AFD cycle, it can't be treated as a PROD a second time, even though it was the PRODder who removed the PROD. I've run into this several times recently at AFD and I don't know why some editors change their mind after PRODding an article and change it to an AFD discussion. PRODs are a much quicker form of deletion, as long as they aren't contested, than a typical AFD discussion. But again, I need to review the policy again. Liz ^{Read!

@ Liz: and @ Bungle: Sorry for that. Actually I was going to AFD the page but I PROD it by mistake. That's why I removed the PROD tag because that was not my intention (to PROD it). ~~I didn’t know that PROD can't be removed.~~ Mehedi Abedin 11:11, 28 September 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Liz: I'd definitely be interested to see what the official stance is in these situations, as surely the whole point of not soft deleting in this instance is because of the removal of a former PROD which implies someone, at some point, has contested some previous proposal to delete the article. This is a fairly unique circumstance, especially as Mehediabedin has conveyed the PROD itself was a mistake (and therefore, invalid)? I think that explanation is entirely plausible given the difference of just 14mins from placing a PROD and sending to AfD. If there is a policy that says a PROD removal under any circumstance invalidates a soft delete at AfD (even if by the proposer themselves), then that needs some serious reconsideration for scenarios such as this.

Redirect as never having participated in elections. As for the target, all three previous suggestions happen to be wrong. First off, people should only be a last resort for redirecting parties. To the core, the Zionist Spirit was an alliance between Yamina and Derekh Eretz (political faction). Yamina left and the Zionist Sprit, in its final weeks, was IDENTICAL to Derekh Eretz (political faction) with the faction outlasting the party.

Comment. Yamina, as the larger faction of the party, would have been the correct target if Yamina had not left the party, leaving it as the intended election platform of only the Derekh Eretz faction. By default the largest faction is the correct target, under strong and special circumstances, this time it was the other faction. People should be targets for parties should only if all else fails AND these were very single person-focused lists. Definitely not the case here.

Keep - I can see why TheLongTone nominated the article for deletion, because they probably ran into the same problem I initially had. Google searches including Google Scholar and Google Books are filled with an overwhelming amount of non-independent publications by Garland, or are trivial mentions that give MORE as an example of types of mindfulness-based interventions but without further context. It's hard to dig through all of that noise to find useful third-party sources that aren't trivial mentions. However, Boghog's sources do meet that standard and there are some books ( example, specifically pages 253–254) that do go into more detail than just giving the name and citing Garland's paper, so I do think this article's subject does meet WP:GNG due to the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. - Aoidh ( talk) 01:03, 21 September 2022 (UTC) reply

You're mixing up how sources/references are used for two different purposes. References used for any purpose including supporting facts/information within an article must be reliable sources in which case we take a close look at the publisher and the author. But for the purposes of establishing notabiliy, we essentially evaluate the *content* to make sure the article meets the criteria. The Times of Israel article is a promo piece which relies *entirely* on information provided by the company and their partners - this fails ORGIND. The Globes piece contains one single sentence which mentions the company - that is neither significant nor in-depth, fails WP:SIGCOV and WP:CORPDEPTH.

The Times of Israel article is an advertorial, there's nothing in that article which isn't directly attributed to the company or their execs or their customers and there's no evidence that the journalist is making any comments based on their own "Independent" research/analysis or fact checking. Similar story with the Globes articles. HighKing⁺⁺ 19:42, 21 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Keep - coverage from TechCrunch and The Times of Israel meets the bare minimum of at least two independent sources with in-depth coverage. And international to boot. The Globes piece about the top #10 ranking is almost as good, and includes some additional profile info. The Frost and Sullivan report has a nice write-up from a notable analyst, which I've seen at previous AfDs as some people's criteria for notability. The Insider and Time sources are just brief quotes, but show that the company's employees are recognized and sought out as thought leaders by the media. There's absolutely no precedent or consensus for saying that if a press release spurs coverage, and the media does additional reporting, including interviews, that somehow disqualifies the resultant article in a notability discussion. That's a lazy argument to make, and completely ignores the role of media relations in getting media coverage. Something has to get the reporter's attention. I will argue this meets WP:NCORP, WP:SIGCOV, and WP:ORGIND. TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 06:21, 21 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Comment The Frost and Sullivan article meets the criteria for establishing notability, thanks for finding that. Your comment (which you've repeated in various forms at multiple AfDs) that media does "additional reporting, including interviews" puts the onus on you to show what the "additional reporting" in those articles actually is because nowhere in any of those articles is content "clearly attributable to sources unaffiliated with the company" and in fact, the context of the articles makes it clear that the journalist is merely regurgitating company information without any *independent* anaylsys/comment/etc. If you disagree, please point to a paragraph which contains in-depth "Independent Content". Overall for this company, it may be that it is WP:TOOSOON.

HighKing⁺⁺ 19:42, 21 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Comment - I will keep repeating my point if you keep repeating your argument rejecting journalists' articles printed in reliable third party sources, in direct contradiction of our guidelines. Requiring business article editors to locate a press release (assuming one even exists) and then do a side by side comparison with a published article in a reliable third party media source, and try to reverse engineer the material, is quite frankly a ridiculous hurdle to impose on your fellow editors. It's the ultimate WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Is there an in-depth article about the company in a reliable publication or not? Did the reporter choose to spend his time on this subject, or any of the other firehose of press releases from hundreds of thousands of companies that he or she could be writing about? That's the standard I use. But in this instance, I'll humor you. From TechCrunch, it takes no time to find ActiveFence is not the only company building technology to help platform operators, governments and brands have a better picture of what is going on in the wider online world. Factmata has built algorithms to better understand and track sentiments online; Primer (which also recently raised a big round) also uses NLP to help its customers track online information, with its customers including government organizations that used its technology to track misinformation during election campaigns; Bolster (formerly called RedMarlin) is another. Some of the bigger platforms have also gotten more proactive in bringing tracking technology and talent in-house: Facebook acquired Bloomsbury AI several years ago for this purpose; Twitter has acquired Fabula (and is working on a bigger efforts like Birdwatch to build better tools), and earlier this year Discord picked up Sentropy, another online abuse tracker. In some cases, companies that more regularly compete against each other for eyeballs and dollars are even teaming up to collaborate on efforts. That's unlikely from a press release. It's original reporting, and is part of an article about ActiveFence. From Globes, the very first paragraph It wasn’t just routine online chatter. The mayor of a city in the US Midwest appeared to be under imminent physical threat by far-right extremists and federal authorities had to be alerted. This is a call researchers for an Israeli company had to make recently as part of their ongoing work monitoring and detecting harmful and/or illegal content on the internet such as hate speech, child abuse, fraud networks and disinformation campaigns. It's unlikely that this content comes from a company press release, so I'm not going to go looking for one. I'm too busy saving notable articles from new accounts casually slinging harmful accusations at veteran editors while the other veteran AfD participants humor him by ignoring his behavior and voting delete as expected.

OK, so you're starting to get it. Because yes, it takes a ridiculous amount of time to go through references which somebody pulls from the first page of a Google search and lobs them here and says they all meet NCORP. Yes, it is a ridiculous hurdle to impose of fellow editors. Yes, it does mean an in-depth understanding of our guidelines. Perhaps this amount of effort is new to you? I still think you're trying to get references to "fit" the guidelines here and there without appreciating that WP:SIRS requires each reference to meet all of NCORP. So ... why do you think that the extract from TechCrunch contains in-depth information *about the company* seeing as when you remove the bits that are about the other companies, we're left with what exactly? Not enough to meet CORPDEPTH because what is remaining adds up to basically nothing. Similarly the article from Globes, what in-depth information are you seeing in that extract that is about the company? Again. Basically Nothing. HighKing⁺⁺ 16:35, 24 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Delete per HighKing, unless there are more sources that are not here. The Frost and Sullivan piece is the only plausible source here in terms of notability, and it still kind of... sucks. Realizing the inadequacies of current methods of fighting online threats, ActiveFence empowers a proactive approach to addressing these challenges (seriously? "empowering" an approach?); to make such a feat possible, ActiveFence has developed an ever‐evolving database that captures malicious activities on the internet. It's written in such a fluffy and corporate-speak tone that I simply cannot consider it a high-quality source, even if it is technically independent. I'm also okay with draftification; if this is a truly rapidly growing company, new sources indicating notability can easily be added and the article readded.

@ Sneha996 Notability requires significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the topic.

Monticchiello Altarpiece

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

Fails WP:GNG. Although I couldn't access it, the article is based on 1 catalog entry, which seems to me to violate WP:NOTDATABASE. Moreover, why do we even have an article on something theoretical, i.e. all just someone's assumptions, speculation. In particular, the "Possible reconstruction" is misleading. While the painter is famous, that doesn't automatically make all his works notable. A cursory Google search turns up mirrors or copies of this article. P 1 9 9 ✉ 13:59, 27 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Cadbury family

A non-encyclopedic article, inconsistently sourced and simply an indiscriminate, trivial list which is essentially a family tree. Some of the family members listed have Wikipedia articles and some of whom do not. In other words, just cruft. As such, fails WP:GNG and WP:BIO in and of itself.

Wrt WP:NPOL, the subject is not a(n) (inter)national or a state-level legislative body member; neither does he seem to have significant press coverage in the sense that independent in-depth coverage is absent. The only coverage he sustained was that of general news coverage and almost all of them insist that he is a relative of the Mulayam Singh Yadav's family. Were he not, he would not have received such coverage indicating the coverage would be due to the family association and in WP terms, inherited notability. Such case, the article fails WP:NPOL, WP:ANYBIO and WP:NBASIC (unless of course in-depth coverage could be uncovered which I suspect doesn't exist) ({{ Notability}} tag was disputed and removed and I presume a draftification would be WP:DRAFTOBJECTed and thus WP:AFDed) — DaxServer ( t · m · c) 10:39, 20 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Thanks to the stupid WP:DRAFTOBJECT rule, seriously problematic articles can only be draftified once, and then need an AfD or some lame problem tags.

First award, fake. The UK parliament doesn't give this award, some obscure private organisation does.

Second award, probably fake, no actual evidence for this and unlikely that NASA would give awards for being a "reformer of Indian culture".

Third Award, some "Federation of Indian Association" would have named him "Hindu of the Year". This claim is repeated on many pages [17]. Strangely, this award seems not to have been given to anyone else, ever [18]

Ladies Learning Code

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

Essentially all of the sources are their own press releases, and the content of the article reads as if this too is a press release. The article is 5 years out of date--I made a search for additional and especially current sources and found nothing except press releases and notices of meeting--the only possibly usable one was [20] from the Toronto Sun, but it too is a collection of statements from supporters.

If there were to be an article, it would make more sense for it to be on the overall organization,, Canada Learning Code--some of the statistics here are from that, and some from this section, and some from related allied sections.

I am always conflicted when I list for deletion articles on excellent projects such as this -- they generally deserve to become notable , and I do share the feeling that perhaps an appropriate part of our role is to help them. But it isn't: we're not a directory, not even a directory of everything good that is in some way related to our own initiatives. I tend to deal with it by letting pass the ones that are written as real articles, rather than collections of buzzwords, and focussing on the ones like this where every major contributor is a single purpose account. DGG ( talk ) 05:32, 13 September 2022 (UTC) reply

The result was delete. While this on a pure nose count could plausibly be a "no consensus", I note the discrepancy between the support for the respective arguments between those arguing "keep" (in many cases, bare assertions of being notable without explanation of why), and the in-depth analyses provided by many who argued for deletion. I also did not fail to notice that many of the accounts arguing to keep are quite new. Seraphimblade ^{Talk to me} 05:52, 5 October 2022 (UTC) reply

Comment as nom. This is a for-profit corporation. Per WP:NCORP, the guideline establishes generally higher requirements for sources that are used to establish notability than for sources that are allowed as acceptable references within an article. As such, for-profit companies are not evaluated by GNG, but instead by the higher sourcing standards for notability. I'd ask those who claim that this passes a particular notability standard to explicitly state the sources they believe get the company over the hump so that others can evaluate their reasoning; I've already analyzed the sources in the article above and I don't really see any specific pushback against that analysis either based on contesting it directly or finding sources not mentioned in it that contribute towards the company's notability. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 17:40, 21 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Relisting comment: Relisting. I see a lot of new editors not considering the source table put together by the nominator and contradicting his assessment without offering any concrete examples of sources they believe estabish notability. Just stating "passes/meets GNG" without providing any examples that establish notability is not a helpful contribution to a deletion discussion.

Comment thanks for relisting the discussion, which is quite okay, I would say. For instance, this newly added Bloomberg [24] source is a good one in establishing the subject's notability. Tsans2 ( talk) 10:47, 28 September 2022 (UTC) reply
Leaning towards Keep though many of the sources within the article fail the criteria of NCORP being either based entirely on funding announcements or connected to the company (failing WP:ORGIND). But, several sources might meet the strict criteria (I've already added some into the article). For instance, the first is the article commenting on Forrester Research annual B2B Summit (November 2021), where Forrester analyzed marketing automation technologies needed for emerging companies and included Maropost with its competitors ( Thryv, Act-On, Keap in its session “How To Integrate The Six Most Essential Technologies At An Emerging Company”. The second is Forrester Research report (2016) “When To Choose A Niche Email Vendor Continuous Improvement: The Email Marketing Playbook” where Maropost was covered [25].
Analyst reports were specifically mentioned by me, as they are meeting the criteria for establishing notability. Getlatka SaaS database estimates Maropost to have a $1.7B valuation (supposedly based on its own metrics like Forbes/Inc. does). And Bootstrappers says the same [26] As such and together with the other press coverage there are sufficient references and the topic passes WP:GNG/WP:NCORP Loewstisch ( talk) 14:59, 3 October 2022 (UTC) reply
With respect to the claim that valuation makes a company notable per se, WP:ORGSIG notes that No company or organization is considered inherently notable. Notability for corporations need to be demonstrated by significant secondary coverage in independent reliable sources, not by its size or how subjectively important we think it is.

With respect to the sources you claim provide WP:NCORP levels of coverage, please see my sourceassess table below. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 05:27, 4 October 2022 (UTC) reply

WP:ORGIND explicitly notes that Examples of dependent coverage that is not sufficient to establish notability include press releases, press kits, or similar public relations materials as well as any material that is substantially based on such press releases even if published by independent sources; arguments that such materials establish notability is contrary to firmly established community consensus and frankly should be discarded by the closer as such. And, as noted before, WP:ORGCRIT is explicit in that the guideline establishes generally higher requirements for sources that are used to establish notability and that sources need special considerations that are not always in play when doing a simple GNG analysis. As such, as this does not appear to pass WP:NCORP, I am still in support of deleting this article in light of WP:DEL-REASON#8, which is to say that this article fails to meet the relevant notability guideline for corporations and organizations. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 05:15, 4 October 2022 (UTC) reply

Okay, so this one seems to be a bit of a notability edge case. More of a request for a checkup than a definite "this needs deleting" AfD, but with the asterisk that I'm here because this very well could get deleted at the end of this discussion. The only source I'm 100% sure on is the Sputnikmusic review (It's a user review, see the WP:RSMUSIC entry). The People piece is partly about the album and ostensibly exists because of its release, but fundamentally is a retrospective on the artist's film career without any interest in the album past the opening paragraphs. Complex is basically just an album announcement, it is technically coverage by a reliable source but it's not much. No clue about Cracked, I have doubts but am unsure either way. The only other coverage I could find was two interviews from Yahoo and Icon Vs. Icon which I'm not quite sure if they clear Wikipedia:Interviews#Notability. There's also Anthony Fantano's review but of course WP has a lot of feelings about Fantano so I don't even really wanna touch that one. Doesn't appear the album charted/got certified anywhere. As I said, I don't know if what's here so far is enough so I'm abstaining from voting (though if it comes down to deleting then I support a redirect to the artist's page) and so I leave it to my fellow editors.

Redirect to Corey Feldman#Discography because it's possible that someone could search for the title. The album was so blatantly ignored by the public that the creator of this article had to stretch for media sources that just barely mention it, if at all. The article says the album was universally panned, but that's not really true because it got no professional reviews. Therefore there is no reason for the article's author to say that it belongs in the awesome worst albums of all time, just because a single non-professional reviewer gave it one star out of five. Alas, I was better off before I saw this AfD because now I know the album exists and I'm morbidly curious about its decrepitude. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 18:19, 29 September 2022 (UTC) reply

Redirect to Corey Feldman#Discography – fails WP:NALBUM. There's actually more reliable content about this album in the Corey Feldman article itself than in this album article.

The Sandbox (blockchain platform)

Very subtle case of WP:PROMO. I keep an eye on Metaverse to ward off the heaps of crypto spam we get over there. I get it, WP:AGF and all, but this one came to my attention after an account with no history editing tech articles mysteriously tried to shoehorn a link to this article there.

Anyway, I think the big problem here is that all the coverage of this project is either WP:ROUTINE funding announcements, rehashed press releases, and WP:ROUTINE business partnerships.

A little bit of digging reveals the Yahoo! Finance article to be a paid article, all of the VentureBeat articles are sourced exclusively to the company/CEO. The closest thing we have to WP:SIGCOV is announcements of partnerships, but I'd argue these straddle the line between WP:INHERITED and WP:ROUTINE.

Sean D Cleary

WP:BLP of a person notable only as an as yet unelected candidate in a future election. As always, candidates for political office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates -- the notability bar for politicians is holding a notable political office, not just running for one, while candidates get articles only if they already have preexisting notability for other reasons besides the candidacy. But this claims nothing of the sort, and is referenced merely to the standard and run of the mill campaign coverage in the local media that every candidate in every election always receives as a matter of course, which is not sufficient to claim that he would pass WP:GNG in lieu of having to pass WP:NPOL.

AfDs for this article:

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

This is another serious case of WP:SOAPBOX and also (likely) WP:PAID. This article is a WP:PIG, full of unreliable sources and paid articles to create the impression that this person is notable, but he isn't. I can analyze source by source, but I can tell you people, that this article can only "deceive" those who don't speak Portuguese. I can tell you this, because in the Pt.WP, this article was not only deleted, but also salted after several SOCKs tried to recreate it over and over. The person behind these attempts, created numerous accounts, and the master account (ironically called "Lucamoreira") had to be blocked and globally locked. This is even more serious, because all this accounts and this article are linked to the BreakTudo Awards. Several people, paid for this organization, tried to use WP to promote their awards and the people linked to them. It is easy to determine that the creator of this article is linked to this organization, by simply looking into their talk page. Every time someone tries to delete one of their article, the process is plagued by several new accounts (many of them SOCKs or MEATs) voting to keep the article. That happened here both times their main article, BreakTudo Awards, went thought a AfD (see the first AfD and the second AfD) and also in the Pt.WP (See that the main account trying to recreate it in pt.WP was a SOCK). Again, none of the references in this article are from reliable sources. Additionally, many of them are simply paid articles that use the same pictures and also the same/similar text. Also, don't be surprised if this AfD is "invaded" by several new accounts, desperately voting for this article to be kept. This is what happens whenever one of the BreakTudo Awards-related articles goes through an AfD. Moreover, it's important to notice that this article went through an AfD before, and was deleted ( see here). Kacamata! ^Dimmi!!! 01:13, 27 September 2022 (UTC) reply
