This time, removal with a discussion, as I mentioned: the time frame of the conflict is taken out of the head, the term does not exist in science, small clashes are called a full-fledged war. Kazman322 ( talk) 17:35, 6 August 2023 (UTC) reply

1) Erofeeva, who does not speak about the whole war of Kazakhs and Cossacks, only mentioning the raid of Abulkhair as a separate fact. 2) The second source already uses the term Kazakh-Cossack war (Казахско-казачья война), Its author is a certain professor Abdirov. At the same time, a cursory search on Google Scholar or Google Books does not give any results. We can safely assume that the term is an invention of Abdirov and the separation of clashes into a full-fledged war is not popular in historiography. Abdirov himself, judging by the second source, is biased towards the Dzungars and from somewhere he takes the fact of Russia's military assistance to the Dzungar Khanate. At the same time, in historiography, the invasion of the Dzhungars in 1723 does not in any way come into contact with the attack of the Cossacks from the west, this is a strange compilation. 3) The fifth source is a book, no pages indicated, just a book. 4) In the last source, Abdirov says that the Kazakh-Cossack war lasted 200 years (I remind you that this is his personal term, which is not mentioned anywhere else), but the author takes a strange time frame of twenty years and inserts it into the title. From which we can conclude that the article is an excerpt from the works of Abdirov, who coined a term that is unpopular anywhere, called minor clashes a full-fledged war, and the author of the article simply retold his vision of the world. And the author also compiled some other events of these collisions. Note that the article contains the term Kazakh-Russian war which is not mentioned at all in the sources. Kazman322 ( talk) 19:09, 7 August 2023 (UTC) reply

      • Even if you pay attention to the content of the article, the intervals of clashes are several years, that is, all these are separate incidents that are not distinguished in science into a single conflict. Kazman322 ( talk) 19:19, 7 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Delete Abdirov appears to be a credible historian, but parts of the article disort the sources to record events as a Kazakh victory. Source four is a Kazakh eighth grade textbook that says Abul Khair's forces were driven back with significant losses by Russian troops, the opposite of the article's claim. Roudik (source 5) doesn't support what he is cited for, and actually describes the ambush of a Russian peace expedition to Khiva, while not mentioning Kazakh actions at all. Judging from Abdirov's work, there was definitely conflict, but we don't need an article that blatantly distorts sources to exaggerate Kazakh successes.

See below TSventon ( talk) 17:32, 30 July 2023 (UTC) reply

SPHB appears to be a limited company that existed between 2007-2011 run by a family in Scotland to raise money for their castle. [2] If there was an earlier organisation of the same name I cannot find any evidence of its existence or its relationship to the company. The article was created by Mph259, the initials of one of the people who ran the company - their only other contribution to Wikipedia was to Islam in Mexico and the same person in the company wrote a chapter in an academic book about Islam in Mexico, which is further evidence of their identity and an obvious conflict of interest. If you google "Society for the Preservation of Historic Buildings" it comes up with a few references, but they invariably seem to be confusing it with a different organisation Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings. For example this article [3] says "The same belief in the vital importance of heritage protection also led to the founding of other organisations such as the Society for the Preservation of Historic Buildings (SPAB)..." As they have specified SPAB they undoubtedly mean the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings. An IP address (judging from contributions probably connected to Mph259) added that it was "noted" in a 1969 architectural journal - again it may be a case of confusion with SPAB (I don’t have access to the article). Apart from Mph259 and the IP address, no editors have contributed anything to the article except for formatting, punctuation, etc. and it gets virtually no hits and has no links from other articles, except user pages. It therefore seems to have been created as an advertisement for a short-lived company and has no notability. Johnbod removed the notification of deletion tag, suggesting a merger instead. However the company has no connection with The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB), so there would be no content to merge. Southdevonian ( talk) 16:10, 30 July 2023 (UTC) reply

The natural confusion, which you mention, is enough to justify a couple of lines in a section at the bottom. If this supposed to be an Afd nom? this is not how you do them. Johnbod ( talk) 16:27, 30 July 2023 (UTC) reply
Thank you for your comment Johnbod. Yes, it is supposed to be an Afd nomination - the first time I have attempted one. Perhaps you can tell me where I have gone wrong? Southdevonian ( talk) 16:42, 30 July 2023 (UTC) reply

Society for the Preservation of Historic Buildings is also used as a translation of da:Foreningen til Gamle Bygningers Bevaring. TSventon ( talk) 17:48, 31 July 2023 (UTC) reply
Which seems to be quite a large and old bygningsbevaringsforening (great word). That could go in the same section. Johnbod ( talk) 18:11, 31 July 2023 (UTC) reply
I have now had a more thorough look at the Google results for "Society for the Preservation of Historic Buildings" and will revise what I said before about invariably confusing it with "Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings" (SPAB). Google comes up with about 48 results. Some of them are mirror sites of Wikipedia and Companies House or lists garnered from them, including an academic article that copies Wiki text. Some are translations of foreign organisations, for example a Dutch organisation. Some are local American organisations, for example, the Montachusett Society for the Preservation of Historic Buildings. Two refer to fictional characters. That leaves four certain or almost certain examples of confusion (including one gossip website), plus four probable or possible examples. I do not see that as enough to justify a redirect or mention in the article about SPAB. There is just one thing that still worries me - whether there ever existed a small local 19th-20th century organisation with the name "Society for the Preservation of Historic Buildings", which might explain one of the possible examples of confusion. But there is nothing in the British Library Catalogue or the National Archives Catalogue. Southdevonian ( talk) 12:42, 1 August 2023 (UTC) reply
The earliest version of the article begins The Society for the Preservation of Historic Buildings was founded in 1858 in Leicestershire and was a pressure group established to oppose the demolition of the country house known as Danet's Hall by the Leicester Freehold Land Society. The group purchased the lordship of the manor and used this to exert pressure to attempt to prevent the hall's demolition, without success., which might be true, but is unsourced.

  • Comment. There's certainly an organisation with this name that precedes the 2007–2011 reincarnation. Found mentions in UK newspaper reports in the 1950s, 60s and 70s - but only mentions. One report referred to the Royal Society for the Preservation of Historic Buildings. The Journal of Architectural Education reference is a name check only of the earlier entity. Don't think the sourcing stands up to a merge as reliability is unclear and there's no indication the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings is related. Rupples ( talk) 02:33, 20 August 2023 (UTC) reply
No, they very clearly aren't related to SPAB - nobody thinks that. This is more a "not to be confused with" thing. Perhaps its not necessary to be too precise about they are not to be confused with, beyond the name. Johnbod ( talk) 02:57, 20 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Rudhraksh J

The actual subject of this article is an actor who has had one major role and so does not satisfy acting notability. There has already been a deletion discussion using his full name; see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rudhraksh Jaiswal, and Rudhraksh Jaiswal is a redirect. This article has an abbreviated form of his name as a novel method of gaming of article titles. The AFD was tainted by sockpuppetry by both the Keep and the Delete voters, but that does not warrant trying to evade the name. The redirect is not locked, so the originator could have expanded the redirect, or asked for Deletion Review. A review of the article shows that this article also does not establish acting notability or general notability. A review of the references shows that they are not about the actor, but about films about the Mahabharata, an interview with an actress, and an interview with the subject.

Reference Number Reference Comments Independent Significant Reliable Secondary
1 indiatoday.in Not about the actor but about Indian mythological films Yes No Yes No
2 archive.org from Times of India About the Mahabharata Yes No Sometimes No
3 Times of India Another article about the Mahabharata Yes No Sometimes No
4 Times of India Appears to be about someone else and other films Yes No Sometimes No
5 Times of India An interview with the leading lady in a film in which he had a minor role Yes No Sometimes No
6 Indiatoday.in An interview about why he isnt in a film due to covid No Yes Yes No

There is also a draft, Draft:Rudhraksh Jaiswal. It should be left so that it can be expanded if he has another major role. This title should be deleted because it is not a plausible search term and is an article about a non-notable person. Robert McClenon ( talk) 23:13, 6 August 2023 (UTC) reply

"Most of X peoples knows him" is not a Wikipedia notability criterion, because anybody could say that about anything if they didn't actually have to prove it. Notability is not a question of the things you say, it's a question of the quality and depth of the sourcing that can or can't be shown to support the things you say, and the sourcing in this article isn't cutting it as it isn't about him at all.

Notability is demonstrated by significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The only source provided that even comes close to aiding in establishing notability is this one. All the others are brief mentions, or just quoting what he is saying about something else, or doesn't even mention him. -- Whpq ( talk) 11:58, 15 August 2023 (UTC) reply

This page was draftified by Syed Aala Qadri Kalkatvi with the rationale "Not notable and not edited well". The page Draft:Farzad ghaderi is very similar (see compare 1170203333 to 1170194633). I would contend that the same notability issues exist as pointed out by Syed. He fails WP:NMMA. I think that there is potential for notability for his participation in Wushu, but I cannot verify any of these championships. It is possible there are no english language sources I could find, but in my WP:BEFORE, I could not verify that he won the competitions stated. I have also found some information that contradicts information stated in the article. For example, the article states that at the 2022 Tunisia Kempo World Championships that Farzad Ghaderi won a 75kg competition, but I find that he came in third in three different competitions at that championship. Regardless, I cannot find enough to push him over any WP:SNG I could find or WP:GNG. I think that developing the existing draft with other sources to push over WP:GNG would probably be the best course of action. Tartar Torte 19:03, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Keep The reason why you can't find sources about this person is because she is Danish. Thus, she may not have many English language references, because the English speaking world has, until the era of the internet, not been very interested to write about the more obscure subjects of Danish history, such as notable women. She is a Dane, and she is included in the danish language encylopedia of notable women of Danish history. If you judge notablity from how many English language references there are about her, then there are many, many notable women of history that you should delete from Wikipedia. Prior to internet, the English speaking world wrote very sparingly about the more obscure history (in this case, women's history) subjects of smaller countries such as Denmark. It is one of the good things about the internet era that these obscure topics can be translated and made availabile to the English speaking world, since foreign language references are accepted in Wikipedia. It would not be a good policy to contradict that development. -- Aciram ( talk) 21:21, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Gscholar didn't turn up sources in any language, that's the issue. Oaktree b ( talk) 13:08, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Not uncommon for obscure historical subjects which are less well known. Historical 19th-century women of small countries are not likely to have much information online even when they are notable. For example: there was zero results on Swedish actresses of the pre-1773 period online until they were given their first articles in Swedish language wikipedia. None. That was because Swedish theater history of that period was not even much known among Swedes, only the experts. The internet era is changing all that. Not every notable subject is yet online, particularly not about obscure subjects such as "women's history" which has long been neglected, and not all books are digitalized. They are however to be found in actual material books outside of the internet, in this case not English language books. -- Aciram ( talk) 14:10, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Non-notable fan film that immediately fails WP:GNG and WP:NFILM. Two years since the project was announced, it has yet to receive significant coverage from high-quality sources, only low-quality ones such as CBR or MovieWeb. Focusing on the Internet controversy surrounding it is not enough. Additionally, this article was improperly created as a means to bypass the AfC process, after the draft page despite there already being a draft page (created two years ago) that was previously rejected at AfC by Dan arndt on the grounds of NFILM.

    This article is one of the most notable fan films of the twenty first century. It is currently sitting at 1,258 for most popular movies on IMDb. Are you advocating for all fan films to be removed from Wikipedia?

  • Delete — Per nominator, but I don't necessarily agree with all of the nominator's points. Although comparing articles in this instance is irrelevant, it would be topical to bring up Prelude to Axanar, a Star Trek film that does establish what a fan film article should look like—if only because Paramount sued its filmmaker. I will change my vote if there is stronger coverage beyond perennial hype articles from marginally reliable sources, but I wouldn't hold my breath for a more reliable source to emerge. Spider-Man in film may be a good merge target. The article being a rejected draft is irrelevant; sourcing has increased since then. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 17:56, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Strong Keep — Above points explain why to keep it, the film definitely surpasses notability requirements, you'd have to be living under a rock not to know about itwhen the news first dropped that the creators were racist you couldn't escape people talking about the film for a whole week. There have been many news articles about the film. The nominator is acting like fan films have never had wikipedia pages before, even though they most certainly have, and this one has an especially high budget. The draft was denied before the movie came out and was not a complete page, back then it was unclear if the film would even be released due to the controversy, but now we're at a point where the film has been released. Apart from being a film, the discourse around Lotus is an important contemporary example of racism in the film community and how the internet at large addressed it. With even more revelations coming up recently in regards to the film's troublesome development, it'd be the completely wrong move to delete it. ☞ Rim < Talk | Edits > 20:38, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply

      The article notes: "Spider-Man: Lotus is a fan film that aims to explore Peter Parker's grief after the death of his girlfriend and his internal struggles about how to be a hero and stand up for others in the face of insurmountable personal loss. The movie first gained attention when an IndieGoGo campaign succeeded in raising $112,079 USD in early 2021. Per the campaign, the project is "not for profit," presumably in an attempt to skirt issues of copyright from Marvel/Disney."

      The article notes: "Following in a long tradition of fanmade movies, Spider-Man: Lotus was filmed on a low budget, raising $112,000 on Indiegogo. Premiering last week, it’s a non-profit project due to its unlicensed relationship with Marvel. Soon, you’ll be able to watch it on YouTube for free. ... This week Spider-Man: Lotus premiered in LA, with a guest list of excited Spidey fans. However it didn’t earn such a positive response online, mostly due to a racism scandal involving the lead actor and director. So when you look up the premiere, you’ll find a ton of posts joking about it being a Klan meeting and generally mocking the film’s existence:"

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Spider-Man: Lotus to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

All of those sources are low-caliber or potentially unreliable, unsuitable to gauge notability. InfiniteNexus ( talk) 16:14, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Wait, the Independent is low-caliber or unreliable how? BoomboxTestarossa ( talk) 07:32, 15 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Both Indy100 and the Hindustan Times are respected reliable sources.

Indy100 says, "Because indy100 is from The Independent you can still trust us to take our facts very seriously (even the funny ones). Some of the stories will have been inspired by the brilliant work in The Independent. Most will be from the crack team of indy100 journalists."

The scholar Lawrence Saez wrote in The South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC): An Emerging Collaboration Architecture, a 2012 book published by Routledge in 2012 said "one of India's most respected newspapers, the Hindustan Times".

The other sources are reliable too (some are generally reliable while others are marginally reliable). But I am not discussing them because these two sources provide significant coverage of the film and are sufficient by themselves to allow the film to meet Wikipedia:Notability (films)#General principles and Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.

  • Delete: Per nom, This article as it currently stands fails NFILM as it does not establish notability from reliable sources, instead relying on low-tier and some unreliable comic-oriented blog news sites. The controversy alone does not hold enough weight to support notability. The contents can be covered at Spider-Man in film#Other films along with other fan films and can be expanded upon in the already existent draftspace article before going through AfC.

    Per WP:TWITTERREF, user-generated content (such as Twitter/X), is unreliable, that includes trends which often are for a period of time and not always defining. Just because a director of some Spider-Man movies acknowledges its existence does not make it pass NFILM or WP:GNG. Just because you "feel" it is notable does not make it true in the case of policy and guidelines. Trailblazer101 ( talk) 23:29, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply

    Is draftifying the article not a viable solution to allow editors time to reconstruct the article with adequate sourcing? A draft existed before, and it's not like it would be completely undoing all the contributions put in thus far. A debate can be had on the current article's sourcing and what can be done to expand it to what meets standards, although I think that can be done once the prospect of deletion is out of the way and constructive expansion in draftspace is being worked on. I did realize that there is a bullet list section at Spider-Man in other media#Fan films which is where some information can be covered in the mainspace while the article gets a rework in draftspace.

    I think virtually everyone agrees that CBR and Screen Rant are much less highly regarded as The Hollywood Reporter and The New York Times. As I wrote above, while it's totally fine to use these sources as citations, they shouldn't be used to demonstrate notability, as they post about everything they deem newsworthy/clickbait-y. InfiniteNexus ( talk) 01:58, 18 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    While it is true they aren't as highly regarded as The Hollywood Reporter I'd also argue that The Hollywood Reporter also isn't anywhere near as highly regarded as The New York Times, that does not make the other sources worthless, and I do think at the very least CBR can be used to establish notability. A wesbite trying to stay alive and putting out a lot of content doesn't mean its content is worthless. "Good enough to use because its reliable, but not good enough to show notability" seems like a terrible road to go down. ★Trekker ( talk) 02:27, 18 August 2023 (UTC) reply

The result was redirect‎ to Planetary romance. There was no consensus on what content could be merged to that target, so no merge for now. Objections to merging were based on sourcing issues, not appropriateness of merging in principle; accordingly, if reliable sources are found, merging content from the page history to the target would likely be in accordance with consensus here.

"Sword and planet" is a rarely used term that is more or less synonymous with " planetary romance", which is much more widely used. A conversation on Talk:Sword and planet has led to a consensus that redirecting the page to planetary romance is the right approach, perhaps with a sentence added to the target page mentioning the term, if that can be sourced well enough. Piotrus, one of the participants in that discussion, suggested that since most of sword and planet is unsourced, and what is sourced would not survive as an article if the unsourced material were deleted and would not be merged into the target, it would be effectively equivalent to a deletion and so AfD should be the venue. Siroxo found these uses of the term: [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] but none are enough to establish that GNG is met for the term.

  • For unsourced but unproblematic content (no copyvio, promotion, or attack/defamation) redirection or merging is always preferable to outright deletion, because the history is maintained and it is possible for a non-admin to see the history and retrieve content for improvement from it. Jclemens ( talk) 21:13, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Agreed. I would propose to simply change the article to a redirect, without deleting history. Mike Christie ( talk - contribs - library) 21:16, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect or weak merge while preserving history, per my talk page comments on the article talk page (I've also done my BEFORE, tried to verify some content in the article, and sadly conclude that it is very ORish). And yes, most sources treat those terms as synonyms, so proposed redirect/merge target is correct. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:58, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Planetary romance. As noted here and on the talk page, sources largely treat the terms as synonymous. I don't know that there is any content worth merging as both articles are at the moment rather poor. A "Terminology" section explaining the connection to sword and sorcery/ sword and sandal on the one hand and Romance (prose fiction) on the other would be helpful, and such a section could also potentially go into detail about what distinctions sources that do not treat the terms as synonymous make. TompaDompa ( talk) 02:36, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    By the way—and this has no bearing on this discussion as such but might nevertheless be of interest—I found the following quote from Gary Westfahl on the appeal of Edgar Rice Burroughs's approach to portraying Barsoom in this manner (though Westfahl never mentions either "planetary romance" or "sword and planet", so it might not be useable here): Burroughs's depiction of an advanced but decadent civilization further allowed for stimulating inconsistencies, in that one could logically believe a culture at that stage would have retained aspects of its past science and lost others; by picking and choosing what might have been remembered and what might have been forgotten, Burroughs could generate scenarios for thrilling encounters, like the incongruous scene depicted on the Ballantine Books cover of The Gods of Mars—a furious sword-fight waged on top of a futuristic aircraft.

@ Fumikas Sagisavas Feed those sources into a machine translator and you’ll see they say absolutely nothing whatsoever about any missile attacks. Classic WP:SNEAKY trick.
The infobox and body are self-contradictory. Because there was no missile attack (let alone two). Only some shooting and shelling which is already covered by an article.
The use of ballistic missile attacks in a border skirmish would be highly notable and attract coverage outside the region.
Thus I decided to call it “blatant” since thirty seconds of critical reading (even without checking the sources) will indicate the highly sus nature of the page.

The article seems misleading and lacks verifiable sources. The author claims there is an Island within the state of Goa known as Goa Island or Island of Goa. I couldn't find any sources mentioned in the article thats states the same. An exact copy of the article tone was previously created on Goa Island article by a blocked user. But I reworked the article from zero as it was actually an Island of Mozambique. This seems like a case of WP:OR. Rejoy2003( talk) 07:44, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Please see the Talk:Goa Island (India) page of the article for the justification of the page's existence as well as the reply to User:C.Fred for the sources.
You may not find the exact name (ie. Goa Island) in sources for two main reasons:
1. Historical references to this island (Ilha de Goa) is in the Portuguese language, not English; since Goa was under Portuguese rule, not British.
2. Due to the construction of several bridges in recent history, connecting the island to other parts of Goa, it gives an impression that it is not an island. Zocdoclesson ( talk) 08:33, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Here are some sources, in the form of historical maps:
Notice the piece of land called Ilha de Goa is surrounded on all sides be water - which makes it an island. (Ilha is the Portuguese word for Island)
This same body of water can be seen today. A quick on any navigation app (eg. Google Maps) will show you the island surrounded by water.

The result was delete‎. This was a complicated discussion in which it seemed like half of the accounts participating were IP editors so duplicate votes can not be completely ignored as a possibility. But through it all, I see only agreement on one reliable source with the other references' independence and SIGCOV being questioned. I was also influenced by the fact that this individual's primary notability comes from his polling organization whose article was deleted due to a perceived lack of notability.

I do want to mention that the nominator, User:Vergilreader did his case no favors by bludgeoning this entire, long AFD discussion. You could have easily been blocked from participating in this discussion, please do not respond to every comment in any future AFDs you start.

I do understand that this closure decision might go to Deletion review for evaluation and I can only wish the editors participating there good luck in sorting this out. I also have no objection to this article being restored to Draft space for further improvement but if it is just moved back to main space, you can expect a speedy CSD G4 deletion. Liz Read!

Article is poorly sourced and may be created by Alex Shieh, or someone who knows him. For example, the middle name listed (Kim-Hyunchul) can't be found anywhere else on the internet. This is either entirely made-up or created by someone who knows Shieh personally. Same can be said about his exact birthday. Overall, this article is entirely favorable of Shieh and fails to include any dissent of his opinions, which there have been plenty of. Additionally, creator of the page User:Stopasianhate has been blocked for sockpuppetry, and the user who removed the redirect User:Keepabortionlegal35 hasn't created any other articles, let alone without an AfC.

  • Weak delete This fellow did something interesting in high school - one thing. It got attention and he appeared on TV, and there was a short bit about him in the New Yorker in the more chatty section of the contents. He is quoted in some articles, like in Wired, but is not the focus of those articles. He also has been writing articles for reasonably impressive journals. Yet I do perceive him as a one-trick pony until proven otherwise. (I also did some editing, moving his writings outside of the references, and removed an unnecessary ref. The article is fairly ref-bombed.) Lamona ( talk) 02:00, 25 July 2023 (UTC) reply
    Agreed, likely a case of WP:TOOEARLY. Also worth noting that the consensus on the "something interesting" he did in high school was deemed not notable enough for a Wikipedia article. Vergilreader ( talk) 00:37, 28 July 2023 (UTC) reply
    However, part of my point is the article is not at all neutral. Before being removed, lots of unsourced information seemed like it could only have come from Shieh or someone who knows him personally. The alternative is it was completely made up. Either way, none are fit for a Wikipedia article. Vergilreader ( talk) 00:38, 28 July 2023 (UTC) reply
*I was going to stay neutral on this but now I'm leaning towards keep. Nom's concern with sourcing/unsourced info seems to have been addressed. As for the 'one thing' critique, a quick scan of the sources shows at least two 'things' have gotten WP:SIGCOV in big national outlets like the New Yorker, ABC, or Fox: the political polls and the affirmative action controversy. However, I'd be willing to change my !vote if nom can give us a WP:DEL-REASON, because the current objections (neutrality, sourcing) can be/have been fixed though editing per WP:ATD. Right now, I'd say that this guy technically meets WP:BASIC, albeit not by much. SoniaSotomayorFan ( talk) 14:23, 29 July 2023 (UTC) reply
  • A few things. First, I'd argue that the coverage doesn't meet the general notability requirement because it is not "independent of the source." Aside from Rolling Stone and CBS Austin, which make passing mentions of Shieh's opinions, all the other sources include Shieh either on screen as a speaker or are his actual columns/op-eds. Note the WP:GNG says specifically, "'Independent of the subject' excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it."
    And, taking a closer look at WP:JOURNALIST, Shieh meets none of the following criteria:
    1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors; or
    2. The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique; or
    3. The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series); or
    4. The person's work (or works) has: (a) become a significant monument, (b) been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) won significant critical attention, or (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.

  • Keep because the subject meets Wikipedia:Notability. Regarding WP:JOURNALIST (taken from my comment here), Per WP:NBIO, "People who meet the basic criteria may be considered notable without meeting the additional criteria below [such as WP:JOURNALIST in our case]."
In reference to various additional occupation-specific criteria, such as WP:JOURNALIST, the policy also states, "Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included. A person who does not meet these additional criteria may still be notable under Wikipedia:Notability."
Thus, even if the subject does not the meet WP:JOURNALIST standards, this alone is not valid reason for deletion, if WP:NBASIC is still met. I believe it is, as significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources exists. Here is a source assessment table:
Source assessment table: prepared by User:IAmHuitzilopochtli
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
New Yorker Yes Story is written by a journalist at the New Yorker based on several interviews and original reporting. The journalist draws his own conclusions, makes independent observations, and editorializes levying judgements and criticism. Yes The New Yorker follows established journalistic standards and is a reliable source. Yes The entire magazine article is focused on Alex Shieh and his classmate and their doing polls. Yes
Fox News No The subject is talking about himself. No Consensus says Fox is not reliable. Yes The entire article is dedicated to Alex Shieh. No
ABC News Yes Yes. Statements of fact are fact-checked by the anchor/author of the article and said in ABC's authoritative voice, such as where the subject is going to college and the specific details of the court ruling. The subject's opinions face scrutiny from the other guest and the host. Yes Consensus says ABC is reliable. Yes Alex Shieh, and another student, are the focus of the coverage. Yes
Rolling Stone Yes Yes. Written by an independent journalist who compiles information from interviews and court rulings. Yes Rolling Stone is not reliable for politics, but the article is used to verify biographical details, not political facts, which falls under culture and is considered credible. Yes Alex Shieh, his biographical details, and his views, are analyzed and rebutted for over WP:100WORDS. Yes
WHDH Yes Yes. This segment features clips of the subject speaking but is narrated by an independent reporter who makes independent judgements and conclusions based on interviews and original reporting. Yes This news station is credible. Yes The subject is the main focus of this coverage. Yes
Time Yes Yes. Time is an independent news organization. Yes Time is credible. No The article is about Nikki Haley, not the subject. No
Columns No These are written by the subject. Yes The Boston Globe is a reliable source. No The subject is not the mian focus of his own writing. No

IAmHuitzilopochtli ( talk) 01:29, 6 August 2023 (UTC) reply
I disagree with your analysis here. To start, this doesn't even address the point User:Lamona brought up about WP:1E. Even if the source analysis is completely accurate, this would warrant a delete by summary judgment. The source analysis seems to suggest there may be two events (Phillips Academy Poll coverage and affirmative action coverage). However, the consensus I pointed to previously is that his polling was not notable, and he therefore cannot be known for that event. Wikipedia's policy is "The general rule is to cover the event, not the person. However, if media coverage of both the event and the individual's role grow larger, separate articles may become justified. If the event is highly significant, and the individual's role within it is a large one, a separate article is generally appropriate." If the editors of a page such as Affirmative Action believe his role is large enough to be in that article, perhaps he can be added there. But, Shieh's role in the Affirmative Action movement simply is not large enough to warrant a separate article. He is known only for his opinions leading up to and immediately following the SFFA v. Harvard case.
But, for the sake of argument, I'll also discuss the source analysis. The analysis seems to confuse significant coverage from count of quotations or speaking time. Wikipedia policy is defines significant policy as something that "addresses the topic directly and in detail." The topic of this article is Alex Shieh. Someone discussing an affirmative action argument Shieh made does not address Shieh, it addresses an affirmative action argument. Most of the sources included only address Shieh as an affirmative action critic and Brown University student, before allowing him to speak to the screen about his opinions (not himself). A true source with Shieh as a subject may describe something like his college application journey or story of getting involved in Affirmative Action, for instance. My main objections are below:
  • ABC News: Lindsey Davis introduces Shieh for less than five seconds at the start of the video, before he debates affirmative action with another student. Shieh is not a subject of this source here, affirmative action is.
  • Rolling Stone: Firstly, this is definitely a political piece, as it fundamentally addresses affirmative action, a political issue. The article is filed under the "Politics" section on the header, so any assertion to the contrary is misleading. So, the reliability of this source is questionable. And, WP:100WORDS is just an essay, not consensus wikipedia policy. But regardless, little information about Shieh's background aside from his ethnicity and education is given, with a little more attention to opinions he has.
  • WHDH: Again, Shieh is simply a messenger in this clip, not a subject. He is described briefly (less than 15 seconds total) with his title, age, school, and organization, before Shieh and the anchor discuss polling results. Subjects here are Phillips Academy and the Phillips Academy Poll, not Shieh.
To summarize, below is my source analysis table (excluding the ones you already labeled as not counting toward GNG, leaving blank the ones I agree with your reasoning and judgment):
Source assessment table: prepared by User:Vergilreader
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
New Yorker Yes Yes Yes Significant parts of article the article are focused on Alex Shieh and his classmate and why they started doing polling, as well as future plans. Yes
ABC News Yes Yes No Shieh is not a subject of this source and only receives a brief introduction. No
Rolling Stone Yes No Rolling Stone politics is not considered a reliable source, and this article is in the politics section. No Shieh's opinions are briefly featured, but he and his actions are not the subject, even though the article may discuss opinions that he has. No
WHDH Yes Yes No Shieh is shown here because he is discussing a non-notable organization's polling results. He only receives a brief introduction and is not a subject. No

  • Delete. As the user who originally created a separate article on this topic, I think I have a unique perspective on this matter. I'd originally interpreted Wikipedia guidelines like User:IAmHuitzilopochtli, but after reading User:Vergilreader's analysis, am inclined to agree a separate article is not needed. If an article creator has any special permissions in an Afd, please expedite the delete process. Jfkadmirer ( talk) 23:08, 11 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Just some context about Jfkadmirer's claims above looking through their edit history. Jfkadmirer previously engaged in an edit war to instate a bizarre one-sentencer ( see here) about how Shieh competed in varsity pole vault in high school, which is not at all what he is known for and read like vandalism/prank. Then Jfkadmirer improperly attempted to draftify a redirect ( see here). That "separate article" version edits is not at all what this current version here is. IAmHuitzilopochtli ( talk) 21:50, 12 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    That's not the full picture. The first time I removed the redirect, I'd intended to use that text as a placeholder for a draft. It was then (rightfully) redirected back since I'd accidentally done the whole article. Of course, when I moved it to draftspace again I did it wrong, but at the time I believed a separate article was needed (though I no longer believe this).

  • Keep. I mostly agree with the first source assessment table, with a minor disagreement where I see the merits of the nominator's point (see my table below). However, I also find the nominator's reading of Wikipedia policy a bit selective and misleading at times.
  • About the one event policy, WP:BLP1E says We generally should avoid having an article on a person when each of three conditions is met:
1. If reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event.
2. If that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual. Biographies in these cases can give undue weight to the event and conflict with neutral point of view. In such cases, it is usually better to merge the information and redirect the person's name to the event article.
3. If the event is not significant or the individual's role was either not substantial or not well documented. John Hinckley Jr., for example, has a separate article because the single event he was associated with, the Reagan assassination attempt, was significant, and his role was both substantial and well documented.
All three conditions must be met for exclusion under WP:BLP1E. I think 1 and 2 are not:
Condition 1: Sources we both deem reliable have covered the subject in two contexts, affirmative action and polls. His specific poll group being found non-notable over a year ago is of no relevance here.
Condition 2: WP:LPI defines a low profile individual as not seeking out media attention, and a high-profile person as someone who might have many scheduled media appearances with notable media. Shieh is not low-profile because he voluntarily engages in media appearances on television and through his columns on topics besides polls and affirmative action.
  • Regarding source analysis, it seems like there is mostly consensus, but I believe the nominator's understanding of WP:SIGCOV is not correct. The policy says Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material. So, whether or not Alex Shieh, or polling results, or affirmative action is the main topic is a pedantic and meaningless distinction. So is a distinction regarding whether coverage is about Sheih or Sheih's opinions--aren't his opinions an aspect of the subject as a journalist that should be included in the wiki article? What makes the coverage significant is the fact that aspects of Alex Shieh are addressed directly and in detail which provides sourcing for all sorts of claims in the wiki article such as his approximate age, education, and career details without the need for original research on our part. Given the emphasis placed on Shieh, it seems a stretch to call such coverage a trivial mention, rather than sigcov. Here is a modified version of the nominator's source assessment table that outlines areas of consensus, as well as my objections.
Source assessment table: prepared by User:172.59.190.251
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
New Yorker Yes consensus view Yes consensus view Yes consensus view Yes
ABC News Yes consensus view Yes consensus view Yes Shieh and his work are addressed directly and in detail, so that we can source claims made in the wiki article without doing original research ourselves. And, there is more than just the Lindsay Davis clip. There is also a clip with David Muir, and an online news article

(concurring with IAmHuizilopochtli, disagreeing with Vergilreader)

Yes
Rolling Stone Yes consensus view ? Is Rolling Stone reliable for sourcing biographical facts that happen to be included in the politics section of the magazine?

(Unsure on stance)

Yes Shieh and his work (and his opinions which are relevant to this page) are addressed directly and in detail, so that we can source claims made in the wiki article without doing original research ourselves

(concurring with IAmHuizilopochtli, disagreeing with Vergilreader)

? Unknown
WHDH Yes consensus view Yes consensus view Yes Shieh and his work are addressed directly and in detail, so that we can source claims made in the wiki article without doing original research ourselves. The clip addresses actions Shieh has undertaken (getting grant funding and building an automatic dialing system for instance)

(concurring with IAmHuizilopochtli, disagreeing with Vergilreader)

Yes
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using {{ source assess table}}.
In summary, I think this should be kept as the subject does not meet the WP:BLP1E criteria for exclusion, and multiple sources determined to be reliable and independent per consensus from the nominator themself do indeed include WP:SIGCOV (not to mention the New Yorker, which the nominator agrees meets the GNG requirements in all three categories). 172.59.190.251 ( talk) 20:31, 12 August 2023 (UTC) reply
This is a brazen misinterpretation of WP:1E, but I won’t blame you since you’re an IP (and presumably inexperienced at Wikipedia). This is certainly in the context of a certain event. A court ruling and its media coverage is considered an event. How can an organization (The Phillips Academy Poll) be an event? And, how can someone be known for an “event” that isn’t notable? Additionally, to the low-profile individual part, the page you describe says a high-profile individual “ Has given one or more scheduled interviews to a notable publication, website, podcast, or television or radio program, as a "media personality" ( a.k.a. "public face" or "big name"), a self-described "expert", or some other ostensibly (or would-be) notable commentator.” Shieh is not any of these and therefore isn’t high-profile. So, WP:1E certainly applies.
Again, I find issue with your interpretation of significance, which is understandable since you’re an inexperienced IP. You highlight “ directly and in detail” yet none of your alterations to my assessment actually show Shieh’s coverage being direct and in detail.
  • ABC: Shieh’s opinions are certainly explained in detail by himself, but again, that is by himself, not someone independent. The actual independent coverage from the anchor simply makes a passing mention to a few of his credentials like his college. Also, per WP:SIGCOV, multiple publications from the same org don’t count extra.
  • Rolling Stone: Your independence and sigcov columns contradict. Sure, perhaps biographical details are accurate, but then you’re claiming the description of the author’s work is also even though it’s in the politics section? And, again, Shieh is barely mentioned as I’ve discussed in my previous comment on this issue.
  • WHDH: The “work” you mentioned is only discussed for fifteen seconds at most. Definitely just a trivial mention, the majority of the clip is about the org itself, not Shieh. And, notice what you listed is stuff that the org did.

  • The subject is passingly notable for running an unusual polling service and for inserting himself into the debate on the SCOTUS' decision on affirmative action. Individually they might not be enough but having both for the same subject must admittedly be considered in combination. Additionally, the subject has chosen a field (journalism) which is likely to increase their publicity and exposure in the future but also has already done so to some degree (e.g. the interviews and published articles which are with a generally reliable source). So while parts of the material might be promotional, they should not be discounted either. However, a COI warning should be applied if the article is kept to prevent future abuse. - Indefensible ( talk) 03:24, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply

    That neglects the polling group he started in high school, which is the subject considered more notable by some above. He got coverage for 2 items primarily, not just the affirmative action case. - Indefensible ( talk) 19:02, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    Yes, he certainly got coverage, but the problem is more so the following:
    1. The polling group is not notable.
    2. Aside from New Yorker, all other coverage involving the poll of Shieh only has passing mentions of Shieh—he is never the subject of articles himself. And of course, one cannot inherit notability from org.
    These points suggest Shieh can’t be known for the org. Simple coverage itself isn’t enough. And, he still fails WP:JOURNALIST. Vergilreader ( talk) 19:15, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    The New Yorker ref can be used to argue that what he did regarding the polling service was notable in my opinion, even if the group itself was not deemed to be notable enough to have an article. - Indefensible ( talk) 19:19, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply

    Both you and IAmHuitzilopochtli (and I see now there is an IP editor as well) agree the New Yorker ref supports GNG, so ignoring it as Oaktree b did is a mistake in my opinion and there should be no question on at least partial notability for the subject. The question becomes more of the other references as you asked, mainly concerning the SCOTUS' affirmative action case. I am leaning towards keep but have not fully decided yet. - Indefensible ( talk) 19:45, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I guess it depends on how much “partial notability” is enough to override WP:1E. You seem to think this is enough, while I, Lamona, and XOR'easter think otherwise, but let’s wait for a few more opinions. We can agree to disagree here.
    What other references are you looking at? The only other SCOTUS related source in contention is ABC News if you look at the IP’s table. I personally don’t think ABC meets sigcov, but even if it did, would two sources (New Yorker and ABC) even be enough for an article per GNG and WP:JOURNALIST?

The subject does not seem like a good fit under WP:1E because their notability is not based on such an event. It seems like a borderline case overall, honestly the best outcome in my opinion would be close as no consensus. - Indefensible ( talk) 22:09, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Delete The main claim of notoriety seems to be regarding the High School "polling firm" created - but this is shaky to define (what exactly constitutes a "polling firm"? I have to imagine that a poll conducted by students has been featured on at least local news before, so the question then centers around some abstract margin for what makes a "polling firm" notable). Regardless, while impressive, this does not seem significantly more notable than many other long-term projects done by Ivy League prospect type students around the world. His work as a journalist also does not seem to have yet conferred enough notability to justify an biographical page.

In case it is not clear, I (actually @ A MlNOTAUR) did not change my opinion "upon further reconsideration", and it's a bit strange and worrying to have someone impersonate me just to try to cancel out my rather banal opinion to delete. I maintain that this page warrants deletion and that the project, while nice, is indeed not anything significantly notable to the point of having a biographical page. I'd recommend that the person impersonating me, who I strongly suspect has some degree of conflict of interest, understand that this type of behavior often only ends up being detrimental to their goals.

  • Keep after further consideration per above, but needs COI warning. Phillips Academy Poll was deleted in July 2022, but if you look at Phillips Academy#The Phillips Academy Poll there were new reliable sources added with the election later that year, so its notability has increased since the deletion. Therefore arguments should no longer be based on its previous lack of notability in my opinion. The New Yorker, WHDH, and NHPR refs in particular suggest notability. This case seems borderline overall but other refs such as from ABC should push towards inclusion; note the subject of the ABC ref is not the SCOTUS decision but rather how the outcome will affect students--including the subject of this article. We should expand coverage of the encyclopedia given the opportunity in such cases. - Indefensible ( talk) 22:43, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I originally thought this too, which is why I created a separate page for the subject originally. I agree that the polling org perhaps has increased notability now, but remember that per WP:INHERITORG, this doesn't make Shieh notable. I don't see enough refs right now to make the individual notable. Jfkadmirer ( talk) 02:28, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    A lot of the sources which support the polling group also support him though. Like a Venn diagram they would be 2 circles with significant overlap. There is some more recent coverage on the polling group now that he is not longer there, but also there are some more refs for him from the affirmative action issue. - Indefensible ( talk) 02:34, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    What sources exactly? NHPR for example doesn't even mention Shieh's name. Most refs I find of the org actually only mention it in the context of the polling data. Jfkadmirer ( talk) 03:33, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    New Yorker is the main ref, there seems to be no controversy over counting that. WHDH is good in my opinion. NHPR is good for the polling group, and the subject indirectly. Also counting at least partially some of the more controversial refs like ABC, Rolling Stone, Fox, and the Boston Globe articles even if primary; they are secondary but enough in addition. - Indefensible ( talk) 03:54, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    A collection of weak sources that don't each meet GNG is generally not a good argument for the subject being notable, and primary sources especially should not be considered towards notability. Like User:Jfkadmirer notes, I don't think NHPR counts at all since Shieh's name isn't in the article. New Yorker being the "main ref" isn't enough alone, Wikipedia is not a place to recite a single source with a bunch of minor facts from other sources added on. None of these articles suggests anything toward meeting WP:JOURNALIST either. Vergilreader ( talk) 05:22, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
    I have never felt that WP:JOURNALIST was particularly applicable in this case. As I mentioned earlier, I do not think WP:1E particularly applies either. Mainly looking at the New Yorker which seems uncontroversial and counts as you and others reviewed, in addition to WHDH and the collection of additional sources. In any case, may reply to directed questions but not looking to argue further and will move on to other subjects. - Indefensible ( talk) 05:38, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. As the editor that created this version of the article, I disagree with the deletion reasons above. There is clearly more than 1E, polling (1) and AA (2), (a previously deleted article on his polling does not negate it from being an event which received sigcov). The New Yorker in particular, but also WHDH, cover him in-depth with regard to that. And I agree with the 3rd table, as I have reviewed the sources in question and do find the coverage significant.

Not entirely an "uninvolved editor" like User:Liz was hoping for since this is an account that made one of the (three) attempts to remove the redirect from this page.

Vergilreader ( talk) 05:25, 14 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Keep Rolling Stone probably fails independence. Indefensible is wrong to hint that "partially counting" is acceptable for sources like NHPR. But, WHDH (along with the New Yorker) is enough to push this into keep, since the source does have a significant portion describing what the subject does and a bit of biographical information as well. Belichickoverbrady ( talk) 23:39, 15 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Glad we agree on Rolling Stone. But no, WHDH describes what the polling organization does, not directly what the subject does (other than his title and age). It is a passing mention of Alex Shieh, who himself is also talking about the poll, not himself. The coverage in WHDH is not even close to the in-depth description of Shieh as an individual and his role within the org that the New Yorker provides, which we both believe meets the point of SIGCOV. Vergilreader ( talk) 04:28, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Comment Will not vote due to COI. I attended Phillips Academy with Alex, the subject of this article. After his first op-ed in Newsweek, he immediately made clear to his classmates that he was going to create himself a Wikipedia page. He confirmed that he had an account and had also been blocked previously, cussing at the platform when this happened. Part of his motivation was to boost his college application, as Harvard was well-known to be his top choice at the time. Beyond that, he believed it was a resume builder. I cannot confirm for certain what accounts he held, but I’d imagine it is no coincidence there are so many sock puppet allegations on this page.

On the contrary, Alex is an extremely controversial (infamous may be a better word) figure at school, so I would not be surprised if the delete votes on this page are his classmates either.

Overall, beware of your votes and who is voting. There is likely lots of sock or meat puppetry here. Regardless, if the page is kept, I support the COI notice on the article others have asked for. 2607:FB91:D74:12E4:8D59:81BF:6D2B:4D0 ( talk) 00:42, 16 August 2023 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. I mostly agree with vergilreader's source assessment and interpretation of sigcov. If users agree that the subject's articles in the Boston Globe aren't independent, I see no difference if the subject happens to be talking to a TV audience on ABC News or WHDH. The introductions the anchor gives is analogous to the short bios given at the top and bottom of the column. I'm also bringing up exclusion. The first point of advertising applies here, although the subject is a person and not an organization. There's already been allegations of the subject potentially causing a COI here, and nom's points about the article having personal details (middle name and exact birthday) not found elsewhere are particularly concerning. The criteria of barely notable individuals is also important, as the comment above this states as well. Lots of potential for defamation, as the subject is barely notable aside from a "single event in their life that thrust them into the newspapers." Touchstone applies too. Looking at Google Trends, the site returns "your search doesn't have enough data to show here" for interest by subregion, related topics, and related queries. An article is likely not warranted based on this data. 2607:FB91:D92:4947:642F:7668:E701:E43C ( talk) 02:40, 18 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Keep Just because significant portions are quotes, doesn't mean it isn't independent. Southern Maryland Chronicle and CNBC, for example, also include lots of other third-party information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Belichickoverbrady ( talkcontribs) 23:49, 15 August 2023 (UTC) reply
Neither of those sources meet WP:ORGIND. As a deeper evaluation of those two sources:
  1. The Southern Maryland Chronicle is quite clearly not independent and has clear signs of churnalism. Parts not in quotes include, for example, As the doors of Verilife’s dispensaries open to recreational users, the company’s experienced staff will be ready to provide the highest quality cannabis products and educate consumers on responsible usage. By leveraging their extensive knowledge and expertise, PharmaCann aims to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all customers. and PharmaCann’s Maryland Verilife dispensaries have been at the forefront of the state’s medical cannabis industry, catering to patients’ needs for several years. Now, with the expansion into recreational sales, the company is poised to meet the demands of a broader customer base while adhering to stringent regulatory standards.
  2. The CNBC article is filled with information attributed to the CEO of MedMen (Bierman) who were attempting the acquisition at this time as well as referecncing a press release. Most of it is attributed even if not quoted. There is an possibly independent attribution to the Cowen Group of a prediction that is based on the (now failed) acquisition. It's difficult to evaluate the independence of that single sentence, but we do not have to, one statement attributed to another party along with some notes about share prices would not make this a SIRS source.

  • Redirect to Between the Shades. There is coverage related to the film in e.g. the NYT Apr. 2019, Los Angeles Blade Jun. 2018, a PFLAG blog announcement quoting the Los Angeles Blade, a review in Film Inquiry July 2017, a review from Video Librarian Apr. 2019, and screening announcements from Newsday 2017, 2018. WP:DIRECTOR#3 includes, The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews; there does not appear to be a collective body of work supported by multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or indications that Between the Shades is a "significant or well-known work" - for example, the film does not appear to be widely-covered, or subject to scholarly analysis, or to have won awards or other significant critical attention. I did not find more independent, reliable, and secondary coverage to help support WP:BASIC or other notability for Salvino in searches online and at the Wikipedia Library.

Relisting comment: Relisting for a final time. Thoughts on the article after Siroxo created Between the Shades?

The result was keep‎. I am not a fan of these articles but I see a Weak Keep consensus here after 3 relistings so this has to be brought to a close. But those preferring a Merge should take their argument to the article talk page. Liz Read! Talk! 00:36, 20 August 2023 (UTC) reply

Subject fails WP:GNG. The current sources lack the independent coverage needed to meet WP:SIGCOV. Let'srun ( talk) 00:45, 23 July 2023 (UTC) reply

Relisting comment: Right now there's no consensus, closely leaning towards keep. Relisting for a final time to hopefully find that consensus. Any thoughts on the suggestion for Merge/Redirecting to Miss Teen USA 2000?

Merge - I think the idea of merging into Miss Teen USA 2000 is wise. It seems that many of the winners do have their own page, though the lack of references & notable elements in Miss. Fry's article would make it well suited to a merge. A MINOTAUR ( talk) 03:18, 13 August 2023 (UTC) reply
