This was a draft that had been stuck in AfC purgatory for about a year, both because almost all the sources are in Italian, and because it has been heavily REFBOMBED (40 sources is a lot for the article's size, none of them are used more than once, and several of them don't directly verify claims in the article). An article with this title has been speedily deleted four times under the Italian Wikipedia's equivalent of WP:G11, including two times for which the creator was the same one here on enwiki. When I brought this matter to the WikiProject Article for Creation talk page, it was suggested I move the article to mainspace and nominate it for deletion.

I will note that there are a few reviews in seemingly reliable sources about this person's work (see [1] [2]), but there do not appear to be any signigicant biographical coverage of him in secondary sources, only interviews. Mach61 23:04, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Notability (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Not notable. No, seriously: notability in the English Wikipedia is notable, for sure, but notability as a general concept? There is nothing encyclopaedic to write about here beyond the dictionary definition. The article claims that it is a concept in philosophy, but it only cites one source from 1975 and I can't find anything else. The rest is just a disconnected collection of references to sources that use the word 'notability' in one of its everyday meanings; they don't outline a coherent topic.

Searches for more sources overwhelmingly turn up material about Wikipedia. And indeed this title was originally used to disambiguate notability in the English Wikipedia, to which we can now add Notability (application), which I think was better. – Joe (talk) 22:24, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I found a paper about notability, which may or may not be useful. jlwoodwa (talk) 22:53, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also a paper on geographic distribution and other factors affecting notability. jlwoodwa (talk) 23:00, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If notability (haha) is not find by other editors, I propose Soft redirecting to Wiktionary as an Alternative to Deletion. -1ctinus📝🗨 23:40, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As Joe Roe said, we'll still need to disambiguate Notability in the English Wikipedia and Notability (application). How about transcluding {{Wiktionary}} on the disambiguation page? jlwoodwa (talk) 03:53, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since this was dePRODed, I am creating an AfD. In my opinion, the article does not meet guidelines for WP:NOTABILITY. It is not a named service, nor is it any special unnamed service that has some claim to fame, thus it is just WP:ROTM. The article seems WP:INDISCRIMINATEly created and more suited to a rail information website. Arnav Bhate (talk) 18:20, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep all listed today Bolierplate statement on each nom that comes down to 'my PROD was rejected, so this is the next step'. Please explain on each of these noms a broader statement as to why you're seeking deletion than the same rationale across all of them. They're also too numerous to ever come to a consensus on all of them, and at worst they will all be redirected to an omnibus article, not deleted. Nate (chatter) 18:27, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Because these are basically the same article, just about different non-notable subjects. There are hundreds of such articles created by a small bunch of users that all follow a similar pattern and that is why the same rationale works for each of them. Arnav Bhate (talk) 18:44, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment. The articles about the trains from this list that I have checked appear to be mechanically generated from entries in some database. Their content is mostly identical and each article does not appear to warrant its own discussion. Essentially, we have here a timetable of Indian railroads in a representation that is very inconvenient to use. Indeed these articles can be combined into one table that pretty much will be a copy of the original database. Since a timetable for the Indian railroads must already exist somewhere, a better solution might be to redirect them to a single article about the timetable itself with no details about particular trains, for the latter the article in turn will contain a link to the original, always up-to-date, searchable database. The schedule of regular trains updates many times a year, so we really should not get ourselves sucked into maintenance of these articles. Викидим (talk) 18:44, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The timetable: [3]. This website is used in the references of nearly all Indian Railway service-related articles, whether notable or non-notable. Arnav Bhate (talk) 18:47, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment It would have been more productive if @Arnav Bhate had bundled these nominations as I don't expect editors to be able to reply responsibly to every single one. That said, I do think the nomination statement is appropriate; it makes an assertion about lack of notability and offers a rationale. If the rationales are identical, that's an issue for discussion but not a reason to issue a blanket "keep." Dclemens1971 (talk) 00:28, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That said, I do think the nominator should re-do these nominations as a bundle to facilitate participation. Dclemens1971 (talk) 00:46, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I had previously done a bundle of nominations, where users commented that they didn't like large bundles for article evaluation purposes. When there are such a large number of articles, one way or the other, there will be a problem. Arnav Bhate (talk) 09:57, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. WCQuidditch 19:02, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: This article does not meet WP:GNG. It may fall under WP:ROTM. We can instead redirect to a broader article that covers train services in India. Such an article will arrange the details in a more helpful and easy to maintain format. It will also retain the essential info in these many entries.--AstridMitch (talk) 19:15, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete all articles about trains that are not special in any way. Per my comment above, Wikipedia is not a place to keep a non-searchable, non-official, never-up-to-date, and bloated with repeated text copy of a railway schedule database that already exists elsewhere and does not have these drawbacks (cf. WP:NOTDATABASE). --Викидим (talk) 19:59, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment it is a train-line. Coverage such as [4] proves it exists, but doesn't demonstrate notability. Is East Central Railway zone a reasonable merge target? Walsh90210 (talk) 22:18, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    These articles are about individual trains running the line, AFAIK. They can be merged together (or to some other article), creating a timetable. We do not create articles for each star in the sky, although very detailed databases exist that, just like timetables, can be used to mechanically generate some text for each line in the database. Unlike the sky, the railway timetable keeps constantly changing, creating a maintenance nightmare on top of these WP:ROTM concerns. Викидим (talk) 00:19, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    It is not a train line, but a train service. The zone article could have a section about operated services, which could contain a list, so in that way it seems reasonable, though I am not in favour of it. Arnav Bhate (talk) 09:55, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • comment. I can't let this pass without making a comment. This article is only one of so many articles that a fellow editor has listed en-mass that will likely be deleted. So little effort required to have so much effort deleted and then it's gone from wikipedia. As a wikipedia reader I've looked up trains in India when I've "armchair travelled" after seeing the movie Lion_(2016_film) and this kind of information in wikipedia makes my wikipedia experience better. Finally, I'd like to say thank you to the page creators and contributors. Speaking for myself, your efforts are appreciated.Rockycape (talk) 03:49, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Wikipedia is not a travel guide. Astaire (talk) 21:13, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In this case, merging/redirecting these articles would violate WP:NOTDATABASE, because India runs mainly point to point services without any sort of large sense of cohesion or shared corridor/frequency/stopping pattern. That makes attempting to make any sort of article detailing the services basically a timetable which is against policy. Even redirecting to a general article about express trains in India is not a good idea because of the fact the names were made up by the author and are unlikely to be a useful search term. Jumpytoo Talk 05:10, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Well, there are 45 of these AFD pages on trains and this is the only one that has any substantial participation and I still don't see a consensus. If you are proposing a Merge, you need to also propose an existing target article or your suggestion can not be considered. And because this is not a bundled nomination, "Delete all" can also not be carried out across separate, unconnected AFD discussion pages. So far, the vast majority of these 45 AFDs have no participation at all and since they were all De-PROD'd, they can not be closed as Soft Deletions and are likely to be Kept if there is no further participation on them.

Unreliably sourced and non-notable, some guy made an unofficial flag, the majority of mentions online appear to be citogenesis. Alexphangia Talk 17:13, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Seems to be just a flag someone made up one day. Any mentions I found just drew from the Wikipedia page. Schützenpanzer (Talk) 01:01, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as non-notable, an unofficial and fictitious object. Prof.PMarini (talk) 03:59, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep Not totally sure about this. At first I also thought this might be a hoax, and any the sources I am finding were maybe based on the wikipedia article, but the page history[5] shows that the article is based on an earlier article by the "Flag Society of Australia." And here are some photos of the flag flying in Australia[6], though maybe that's just flown by somebody who fell for a hoax? Elspea756 (talk) 16:07, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Merge with Lord Howe Island, unless we can establish that it truly is a hoax. Can anyone who has been to Lord Howe Island tell whether people there use this flag? I wouldn't use Flag Color Codes or the fact that there are such flags for sale on Amazon as RS in the article, but they do suggest that the flag is in use somewhere. My second choice after merge would be to delete. Darkfrog24 (talk) 18:57, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. This subject is important enough based on the efforts and events that led to the flag creation. It's use wasn't born out of war but was born out of a friendly sporting competition between two neighbouring islands. What an interesting and notable story in the overall history of this region. I imagine that similar histories of flags creation have been lost for much larger places than this pacific island. I don't think an unofficial flag can be considered a hoax without evidence.

Flag history order of events:-

-someone has created a new flag design
-the design was made into a flag
-someone has travelled with the flag to a neighbouring island for a sports competition
-flag was raised up the flagpole for the duration of the sports competition Rockycape (talk) 00:59, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Besides the review pre-existing review from the Pittsburgh post gazette in the article, I failed to find a second review that would satisfy WP:NBOOK. While this might look like an independent review at a first glance, it fails to be independent with this disclaimer here: "You have an indie book. We have several dozen talented reviewers. Let's just make it happen. Foreword offers honest, credible reviews of indie books, and we've been doing it for over 20 years." -1ctinus📝🗨 15:17, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria says:

    A book is presumed notable if it verifiably meets, through reliable sources, at least one of the following criteria:

    1. The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself. This can include published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries, bestseller lists, and reviews. This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy, or other publications where the author, its publisher, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the book.

My assessment is that the review is sufficiently independent of the publisher and the book since no fee was paid for the review.

Article about a small-town municipal recreation centre, not properly sourced as passing inclusion criteria for local buildings. As always, arenas are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and have to show passage of WP:GNG on third-party reliable source coverage about them in media -- but this is referenced entirely to the self-published websites of entities directly affiliated with the venue -- the town government, the local minor hockey league, the local junior hockey team and a local real estate agent -- with not even one hit of GNG-worthy coverage shown at all.

If you check the article history, all content is pretty obviously written by employees of the organization that published this journal. It does not seem notable, it was self-published and every source listed is also self-published (their own website or press releases), except for Worldcat which just confirms the journal existed for one year and is archived in one library in the whole world.

A few unreliable sources- Ref 1) by Khazan Singh was published in 1914, and the author is not a historian. Ref 8) by Mark Brentnall is a self published source with no information available about the author. Ref 7) by Amarinder Singh, the author is a politician not a historian. In addition, refs 2) and 3) are improperly cited, do not have a page number or a proper url to a page discussing the subject at hand and thus fail WP:V. The remaining sources make only passing mention of this battle/conflicts between Sansar Chand Katoch and Ranjit Singh, and subsequently focus far more on Chand and Ranjit Singh's alliance against the Nepalis; the actual "war" content between the 2 in these books fails WP:SIGCOV by a long shot. The article's information is best suited as a prelude/context in the page Nepal-Sikh war due to the aforementioned proportionality of coverage surrounding the two's alliance. In addition, the creator of the article created numerous low quality pages to inundate Wikipedia with articles aggrandizing his religion's military history.Southasianhistorian8 (talk) 19:13, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I said this in 2017 I am not sure Wikipedia is the proper place to document lists of endorsements for political candidates (Notable endorsements covered in multiple independent sources, probably as part of the main campaign page). Is AfD the proper place to hold this discussion, though? I still feel that AFD is not the right forum to determine whether we should retain all endorsements. That said, the main topic Clinton 2016 endorsements is notable, and it can be assumed that a page split (based on size) can inherit the notability from the primary topic. - Enos733 (talk) 19:50, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Carefree, Indiana (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

There is a "Carefree Dr" in the vicinity, but other than that there is no record of the spot on maps until it got back-added from a FIPS listing, which should almost count as a self-citation. Anyway, there's nothing there until 1998, when the main distribution warehouse of Jasper Engines was erected spang on the location. I'm guessing "Carefree" was actually someone's farm but at any rate there's no town and never was. Mangoe (talk) 13:19, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't suppose you can find something that defines the boundaries of this supposed town? Looking at aerials from the period, I'm not seeing anything, certainly not at the GNIS spot, until the Jasper warehouse is erected; there's some commercial stuff on the south side of the interchange, but hardly a town. At this point the thing looks like some sort of fraud, but we're stuck with nothing but very primary sources. Mangoe (talk) 20:22, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Two more recent sources mention the town, WTHR reporting [23], and the Indy Star [24]. A veterans center nearby described it as their "Carefree location" [25]. The nearby Madison Courier also consistently describes events taking place in Carefree [26], and a magazine from the neighboring county includes references to Carefree [27]. A few obits people having been born in or lived in Carefree [28][29]. It seems like locals consider this place to exist. Cerebral726 (talk) 14:00, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There's also some remnant signs of a town. An old smoke shop, a car salvage, a Carefree Truck Stop. Cerebral726 (talk) 14:18, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the truck stop is mentioned in the case and appears to be the whole reason behind the incorporation attempt. I would not be surprised to learn that the other businesses in the area were also owned by incorporation petitioners. My guess is that they saw some political advantage for their businesses but screwed it up. What is quite clear is that (a) the location in GNIS is just wrong, and (b) there's no Carefree residential area: the closest thing appears to be the mobile homes that now occupy what apparently was originally supposed to be a KOA (and may have been). Before the interchange was built and the businesses appeared, there was nothing.
This is actually an interesting story for a local reporter to write up, but there's obviously more research needed, including looking at the court documents and interviewing locals. If I lived where I could get at the appropriate libraries I might consider doing it, but I'm several states away. As it is, this isn't in our purview. And I don't know how we write an article that says "not actually a town, maybe some sort of business maneuver, at any rate just a locale". Mangoe (talk) 15:44, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete I searched the full archives of the Courier-Journal (the nearest major newspaper). Gotta love a town first mentioned in classified ads "Builder Inquiries welcome! Carefree, Indiana! A New Town with a future!" (10/28/1977) Then the same ad ran 83 more times. Then the place was mentioned five more times in classified ads in the 80s and 90s selling or renting land. This, combined with the court case mentioned above, would seem to suggest this was more of an attempted real estate development than an actual incorporated town. But people called the area Carefree for a while, perhaps because of the 1970s advertisements. Weak delete because I only looked in the one newspaper database, although that paper did write a lot about the towns in that area. --Here2rewrite (talk) 13:11, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. I'm unable to identify any references that meet the criteria for establishing notability, sourcing in the article all relies on announcement and none contain in-depth "Independent Content".

  • Redirect to List of television and radio stations in Metro Cebu This is the only reasonable outcome right now. There are a lot of obvious correlates that to me suggest the sourcing to make this a reasonable article should exist somewhere—the station is more than 35 years old in one of the country's ten largest cities. This is not either a new station or a small-market station, both of which will struggle to generate sufficient coverage. But I do not know if the sourcing to improve this page exists online.
    I am going to use this opportunity to speak directly to the editors who mainly work on Philippine TV and radio pages.
    Read the room and start shoring up the articles that need substantial, independent references to demonstrate passing the GNG, not creating new ones.
    The creation of new pages and drafts in Philippine radio has continued apace. Pages like DYWC-AM are not acceptable as new pages in 2024. The references need to be more than passing mentions, able to sustain significant material for the article.
    Years ago, our practice was that most standalone stations merited articles. That has changed with the 2021 RfC that ratified the GNG as the standard in this field. I am slowly working on creating the conditions (namely list coverage and quality) to cull hundreds of Mexican station pages I created last decade for the same reason; many stations are old enough to have coverage, but newspaper availability is poor, and the pages are stubby. This may be the correct approach in the Philippines. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 08:21, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Luigi is A Really well known character in the mario franchise, But luigi has very little actual discussion about him. I have also seen many unsourced information on this article, which is true since it only contains 30 sources. These are just not enough to hold up luigi as an article sadly. Babybunny2007 (talk) 05:26, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see your point. Having 30 sources isn't a reason to delete an article, especially when a quick glance suggests the majority of them are both reliable and independent. jlwoodwa (talk) 06:52, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Procedural Keep no evidence of a BEFORE done by nominator. While I'm not one to keep solely on the grounds of iconicity, Luigi is a character that's one of the most iconic characters in the several decades of video gaming's existence. There are also several topics solely focused on him, such as Year of Luigi and Ennuigi, which are notable subjects that are focused entirely on the character. Doing a BEFORE is difficult given the breadth of coverage that exists on the character, but even a brief search yields some results. It'll take a lot of research to make this article of a high standard, but the character is without a doubt notable. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 07:01, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – I understand what you're getting at, but you need a real in-depth analysis of the sources to make a decent case for why this article doesn't work. It's true that most of these sources aren't about Luigi specifically, but he's a major subject of many sources and has a major role in so many games that we should easily be able to write a sufficient article on him even if we had zero dedicated coverage. I would suggest setting your eyes on lesser characters first, and to create a proper argument based on which sources are and aren't available. ~Maplestrip/Mable (chat) 07:07, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep. I'm not trying to sound rude or BITE-y here, but this nomination is laughable. Yes, the article is in rough shape, but deletion is not cleanup and that doesn't mean the subject isn't notable. No evidence of a BEFORE search is present, and this rationale as a whole is critically flawed. There are countless reliable sources discussing this character, including the media he is in and promotional Year of Luigi. And that's not even getting into the academic sources and books (which are the highest quality sources you can get), where most coverage discussing Mario (who is a cultural icon) discusses Luigi to some extent as well. It's actually baffling I'm even having to defend this article. While I don't want to sound rude here, I simply can't see this nomination as having been done in good faith. λ NegativeMP1 07:07, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

While this subject probably passes WP:LISTN, this page is in such a poor state that it probably can't be salvaged without nuking it and starting over. It only cites one source (which is an unreliable WP:VALNET source) and it seems to indiscriminately list characters with no semblance of objective inclusion criteria (by what criteria can Aslan and Diddy Kong be considered "superheroes"??).

Most of these entries are unverified and there is nothing to WP:PRESERVE. Shooterwalker (talk) 13:35, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I actually attempted cleaning this up some after the previous no-consensus AFD back in 2019 by removing a lot of the ones that were either completely non-notable examples (i.e., one shot characters that appeared in a single episode of a series or examples from completely non-notable franchises) or were not in any conceivable way a "Super Hero". I even tried to start a conversation on the Talk page to get further feedback and help in cleaning up, which no one ever replied to. And looking at it now, its in even worse shape and more of a complete WP:INDISCRIMINATE mess than it was then, and can't even stick to even a remotely coherent inclusion criteria.

More electioncruft articles, except all of these are in a town that is not even in the top 100 largest towns in the United States. Not notable for the usual reasons, Wikipedia is a political database. Fails the general notability guideline, as all sources are WP:MILL in local news stations or papers. Additionally, no coverage is sustaining, failing WP:NEVENT. I am nominating the following articles as well:

I'm open for any criticism, But I think there are only a few reliable sources talking about this character. One of the sources from this article is from IMDb, A primary source site, and I believe there are also a few other primary sources in this article.

Similar to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sports teams named Trojans or Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_sports_teams_named_Spartans, this article lacks any sources discussing the grouping and as such WP:NLIST is not met here. A WP:BEFORE didn't reveal anything that could establish notability either. Let'srun (talk) 21:20, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Additional discussion relating to the disambiguation proposal would be helpful in attaining consensus for a particular outcome.

This is also called "Deuchers" on some maps, not to mention on the road that passes through the spot, but there is just nothing there, and I cannot find anything except for a passing reference from the Lomaxes that they recorded some song there. Mangoe (talk) 03:10, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
