Merge into Miyun District. Given the readily available sources (even in English, which I guess for this particular subject isn't too surprising), this subject should certainly not be deleted outright, though I doubt it could be expanded much beyond what is currently on offer; as no future development is likely, a merger seems the best approach. Antepenultimate (talk) 04:10, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fails to demonstrate eligibility under WP:MUSBIO. MUSBIO#1 expects the topic to be "subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works [..that are..] not self-published, and are independent of the musician". Not the case here. Most supporting texts are self-published, or trivial (subject gets a "passing mention" when another topic is the primary subject of the supporting text). MUSBIO#2 or #3 expect chart position or major sales (not case here either). In general, neither GNG nor MUSBIO seem to be met. (While there are mentions of the subject in [for example] news articles, the primary topic of those articles are invariably about something else. This type of coverage generally fails WP:TRIVIAL - and is particularly problematic relative to WP:INVALIDBIO and WP:INHERITED. Specifically, just because we find small amounts of coverage which say things like "A is a member of BANDX", or "A is child of MUSICIANY", that doesn't make "A" independently notable). At best redirect to the article on the which the subject is a member. (When discussing this nom, I would note that WP:BLPKINDNESS likely applies).Guliolopez (talk) 23:45, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No credible assertion of significance, no evidence of meeting WP:CORP, and I am not finding the significant coverage required. I would have deleted this in accordance with WP:CSD#A7 except for the fact that User:Just Chilling had already declined an A7 nomination for unknown reasons. ~Anachronist (talk) 23:34, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but it is not correct to say "Just Chilling had already declined an A7 nomination for unknown reasons." My edit summary was "Declined speedy - WP:A7 is not applicable. Deletion can be pursued at WP:AFD if thought appropriate.". Though organisations are, of course, subject to A7 deletion, brands are not. Since the article is primarily about the brand, it is not, as I stated, eligible for A7 deletion. Just Chilling (talk) 23:54, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Just Chilling: thanks for clarifying that distinction, which wasn't apparent to me at the time. And you are correct, although the company and the brand are essentially the same in this case. ~Anachronist (talk) 00:49, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - A quick Google search shows most links go directly to the company website. I don't think this company (or brand) has any notability, and even though a claim of significance can be made I don't think the topic (brand) is broad enough to encompass its own standalone article.

2016 shooting of San Antonio police officer

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

Fails WP:NOTNEWS and WP:EVENT. - CHAMPION ^{(talk) (contributions) (logs)} 22:46, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep: News or not, this is likely to become a major event in San Antonio. A manhunt is presently underway and the suspect has yet to be identified. If caught alive, he will be tried and, given the circumstances, most likely convicted. All this strikes me as worthy of an entry in WP. Chief Red Eagle (talk) 23:35, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - early days. article can be improved. major event.--BabbaQ (talk) 00:03, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I note that many of the other articles about events in Category:Assassinated police officers tend to be about multiple shootings. This sort of thing is just too commonplace in America and may not be notable. Then again I get that the shooting right outside a police station stands out. I think it's really too early to tell, either way. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 00:45, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Weak keep as it is likely to gain further notability. Instaurare (talk) 01:31, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep - Given that it follows on the heels of other killings of police officers, and the reaction of government officials, I'm willing to hold out on this article's notability a little longer. We can come back on this when more details are shed on the case. Parsley Man (talk) 01:42, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - No comment on the notability, but it could really use a less clunky title. ansh 666 01:51, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The story so far: Officer pulls driver over for routine traffic stop. A second car stops, dude gets out, shoots and kills police officer. Drives away. Massive manhunt underway. Immediate national and international coverage. This does not sound like "routine" shooting to me. E.M.Gregory (talk) 17:24, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. If kept, this should certainly be renamed to the much less clunky killing of Benjamin Marconi. (Note also that the victim's title was detective, not officer). Neutrality^talk 19:50, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Following the suspect's arrest, I have renamed the article to Shooting of Benjamin Marconi, since I am assuming there will no longer be any additional victims. Parsley Man (talk) 00:00, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I would support a merge/redirect to San Antonio Police Department, but we don't have an article on the PD yet. Neutrality^talk 02:19, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NOTNEWS, suspect is in custody. -- Somedifferentstuff (talk) 21:20, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Note that although being upset over a custody dispute is routine, walking up to a police officer and murdering him is not. And it has not been covered as routine, rather, this is getting national coverage as part of a sharp increase on targeted/ambush attacks on police.E.M.Gregory (talk) 21:48, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Weak ~~delete~~ keep - NOTNEWS is the biggest issue. The past few weeks we have five men shoot 7 officers, and this weekend we had 4 more. Not sure what sets this apart from the rest. Others have been ambushed but I am unaware of articles for them. EvergreenFir (talk) 23:38, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And therefore this shooting is being analyzed in national media as part of an increase in the targeted/ambush shootings of police officers. Although the AFD at first seemed overeager while the manhunt was underway; I now think that the attention brought by the deliberate targeting of an officer and national coverage due to that aspect augurs keep. E.M.Gregory (talk) 11:54, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay... you've convinced me with the national media coverage. It's grown since I last looked. The media are treating this one differently than the other shootings, so I guess we should too. EvergreenFir (talk) 14:03, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note Anthony Beminio and Justin Martin have an article. These 2 officers were killed in separate incidents, in "ambush style" shootings very similar to this shooting in San Anntonio. Beminio and Martin share an article because of the coincidence of being shot and killed in the same city on the same day. 2016 shootings of Des Moines police officers. Public attention, and media coverage do focus on the deliberate targeting of police officers in cases like these, where the officer is simply sitting in the patrol car, or writing a traffic ticket, when a guy with a gun arrives out of nowhere and shoots the officer. Resulting coverage and public concern produces the kind of coverage that supports keeping an article.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:39, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep – I have just added a section (which has been subsequently shortened) with a bunch of references about a Texas Judge who suggested on Facebook that the suspect be lynched, then quickly deleted it. There has been coverage in Texas and beyond and also comment on its significance in light of the election of Donald Trump and the atmosphere in the US. I suspect there will be more coverage to come and suggest that the coverage of the crime and the aftermath is sufficient under GNG. EdChem (talk) 04:47, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

While I thank you for this edit, you have to be careful about making it undue and using reliable sources. I had to shorten it considerably; this is not about a judge's certain comment regarding the shooter's race, it's about the shooting death of a respected police officer. Parsley Man (talk) 04:56, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Much would be better in an article on the judge, I admit, so I can buy undue, and moving it to a stand alone article seems likely - need to make sure there's enough on him for it not to be BLP1E, though. Irked about your RS comment, though, they are newspaper sources (all with much the same coverage) plus the website where he works (for his election), plus a comment / opinion that has a strong perspective but is presented as such and not in WP voice, on the aspect that could well lead to ongoing coverage. I presume it is the last one that concerns you? EdChem (talk) 05:02, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't exactly call Occupy Democrats and Atlanta Black Star RS... Parsley Man (talk) 05:04, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea who Atlanta Black Star is, it came up on Google News and I clicked it because Atlanta is not in TX and I was looking for out-of-state sources to show breadth of coverage; it looked like a newspaper and the coverage is in line with other sources in this case. Poor choice on my part, perhaps. Occupy Democrats is certainly opinionated but its words were attributed as opinion to their source and not used for factual assertions in WP's voice. My opinion stands, however, that the incident and related coverage adds to the GNG case for keeping this article. EdChem (talk) 05:23, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Given the word "Black" present in the source and the content in question, I had my doubts that the reporting was going to be objective and removed it based on that suspicion. Parsley Man (talk) 05:36, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Person gets murdered with a firearm in the USA. Happened 13,468 times in 2015 and I don't think this year is much different. so this is routine news. WP:NOTNEWS. Black Kite (talk) 12:02, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per nomination, I cannot find any indication of Notability.--Gronk Oz (talk) 07:05, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The article is notable, I have referenced several pages with clear proof of this game. LinkDirectory5000 (talk) 16:47, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete.~~ Neutral. Mere existence doesn't equate to notability. If it doesn't have significant coverage in multiple reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it doesn't merit a Wikipedia article. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:05, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Please see below. I've already found at least 5 third party reliable sources that help it meet the WP:GNG. Sergecross73 msg me 03:16, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The additional sources aren't great (they include a tweet, a forum posting, and other trivial mentions) but the article now isn't in the state it was in when first nominating, so I'm withdrawing my delete recommendation. My objection to considering the project page WP:VG/S as an "official" guideline that appears to have reached that distinction by fiat rather than discussion in the broader Wikipedia community, is a topic for a different discussion. ~Anachronist (talk) 17:33, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
For the record, the Twitter/Sega Forum sources were there prior to me rewriting the article, and I only kept them because they were the only ones I could find verifying the game's removal from the App Store. I don't like using them either, but first party sourcing is usable to a limited degree, and its only there to source that non-controversial claim. It wasn't one of the sources added with the intention to prove notability. Sergecross73 msg me 19:08, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I found a number of sources with a consensus for being reliable per WP:VG/S, that dedicated entire articles to the subject. Gronk Oz, Anachronist - do the below sources change your mind on this?

Additionally, I found https://www.techinasia.com/dragon-coins-sea-review-bringing-meaning-to-the-coin-dozer - which isn't listed at WP:VG/S but looks reliable and discussed the game in detail. Sergecross73 msg me 18:57, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My problem with these sources is that they look like routine coverage of Sega's products. Routine coverage doesn't confer notability. An analogy would be a wine reviewed in Wine Spectator, a reliable source, but it reviews 10,000 wines per year, so any obscure non-notable wine has a 99.9% chance of getting reviewed at some point. With the exception of Engadget, those sources above exist almost completely for the purpose of reviewing games (and the author of the Engadget piece isn't even listed on their staff, he's no more reliable a source than you or me). The point is, every game from a publisher like Sega will get at least a couple of reviews from a reliable source eventually, regardless of actual notability; in essence the game is being reviewed because Sega put it out, but on Wikipedia notability is not inherited. I'm not convinced that this coverage is more than routine. ~Anachronist (talk) 06:07, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So ... @Sergecross73: are there any better sources, which are not just standard reviews when the game was released? --Gronk Oz (talk) 13:15, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Polygon also wrote an article about the game, which is another RS from WP:VG/S. Sergecross73 msg me 20:04, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dedicated product reviews are not routine coverage - they discuss the subject in significant detail, as the GNG requires. There's a consensus at the WikiProject level that they are reliable and go towards proving notability. There is no requirement that says video games need to break into the mainstream media in order for the sources to count towards meeting the GNG. No one suggested anything remotely close to INHERITED, so I have no idea why you chose to go on that tangent. The argument is that third party reliable sources wrote detailed articles dedicated entire to the subject. Sergecross73 msg me 13:42, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My analogy with Wine Spectator was to demonstrate that dedicated product reviews are indeed routine coverage when those reviews appear in publications that exist solely for the purpose of reviewing those products. That's what we have here. Routine coverage. Are there any non-notable Sega games? My point about WP:NOTINHERITED was to suggest that just because a reviewer thinks a game is worth reviewing just because Sega released it, doesn't mean we have to. We need to be making a meaningful distinction between routine coverage and something actually notable. ~Anachronist (talk) 18:01, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Of course there are non-notable Sega games. Look at lists like List of Sega mobile games or List of Sega arcade games and see that there's plenty of unlinked titles. Only half of the sources provided above were reviews, and all of them presented write more than just product reviews. I have saved a ton of articles at AFD using equal or even less sourcing for products like video games or albums, so I would be absolutely shocked if this sort of sourcing would be shrugged off simply as "routine" and the article deleted. Sergecross73 msg me 19:54, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also, from what I can gather, while it was a short-lived failure in English regions, it was considered a success in Japan, where it had launched several years earlier. [1], [2] Sergecross73 msg me 03:13, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The relevant Wikiproject has some pertinent discussion of this issue at Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Sources#Review sites: "The most important sources for most video game articles are the reviews of the game itself." This is different to articles on more conventional topics. Can we get some involvement from the folks at that WikiProject, who would be more familiar with their standards?--Gronk Oz (talk) 06:39, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this is the stance of the WikiProject (I've been active there for the last 6-7 years). In the video game industry, the most detailed commentary from third parties is often from the reviews, as they often consist of detailed breakdowns of the game's make up - which is why I so strongly reject Anachonistic's notion of the coverage being "routine". I am surprised WP:VG hasn't commented more here - its one of the most active WikiProjects on the website - but hopefully we'll get more input soon. Sergecross73 msg me 14:53, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Since when did a page in a Wikiproject become an official guideline? Here is the edit that made it so — without any formal discussion in the wider Wikipedia community, as far as I can determine. Nevertheless, if the coverage of this game isn't considered routine, that's fine. I would maintain that any source that exists solely for the purpose of publishing reviews constitutes routine coverage. I want to see more sources from outside that niche. ~Anachronist (talk) 16:20, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep - Yep, I think these references are just enough to show notability. Many of them appear to paraphrase the press release, but not entirely and some, especially pocketgamer, are original. --Gronk Oz (talk) 23:58, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I have done a complete rewrite - standardizing the structure, adding over 10 refs, and expanding it out of stub status. Please look it over prior to commenting. It's by no means perfect, but is far different than when it was first nominated, and certainly clears the bar for the WP:GNG. Sergecross73 msg me 14:53, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the top source is the about us page of Kerio.
- merge = delete I suggest we allow this page to die, and the more promenent of the product pages can add in any RS about the actual company, which has little/no notabilty appart from the products. Some of the citations are usenet posts, the about us page, 3 are untranslated posts about a show. Little would need to be incorporated, so instead of leaving this for another group to address, we should delete and transfer the about us stuff to a section of the product article. Darkstar1st (talk) 10:55, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - @Darkstar1st: I see this opposite: keep this article and merge articles about products. There is only one usenet post used to reference claim about continuity of development Tiny/Kerio (weak source, of course), about page references only cities with their offices (with is OK, I think), third clearly non-RS source is used for date of incorporation. As of "3 are untranslated posts about a show", if you mean German language refrences, these quite well show introduction of new products and naming changes (all these pages are owned by big German media houses).

Susie Gibson

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

No evidence of the type of sustained coverage that would meet the guidelines at WP:N; most of what is here and findable online is routine coverage, obituaries and one or two local news reports, none of which establish notability. There's no Wikipedia policy or consensus that states that the oldest anything is automatically notable by the encyclopedia's standards; numerous AfDs on the "oldest" individuals have been kept or deleted based on their individual merits. Thus we default to the general notability guidelines and any material of encyclopedic merit here can be included on the many longevity-related lists on Wikipedia.

Dear Canadian Paul, how exactly is the link "canvassing"? Canvassing, if I recall correctly, is urging people to go to an AfD and vote in a certain way. Please note that in the message you are referring to, that is not done. Moreover, I do not see any SPA votes having come in after that post (30 November) had been made. In other words, I am not sure what you are trying to achieve other than trying to manipulate the closing admin by wrongly accusing someone of canvassing. Fiskje88 (talk) 23:51, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's perfectly obviously canvassing (of which Young has a long history) and ineffective canvassing is still canvassing. E Eng 00:10, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Well, then you must have a VERY different view on matters, because I see absolutely none of it. Goodnight. Fiskje88 (talk) 00:17, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It's not my view that counts, but that of WP:CANVASS, which lists among inappropriate behaviors:

Posting a notification of discussion that presents the topic in a non-neutral manner.
Contacting users off-wiki... to persuade them to join in discussions (unless there is a specific reason not to use talk pages)

Both are present here. E Eng 00:24, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I honestly fail to see how "both are present here;" I see no persuasion at all to join in any discussion, nor do I see this comment aimed at any Wikipedia-users at all. Therefore, I do not see any reason at all to change my opinion regarding this supposed "canvassing" attempt. Fiskje88 (talk) 18:53, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I think there is no need to delete this article. Being second oldest person in America and also the third oldest person in the world out of 6.5 billion (at 2006, the year of the death of Susie Gibson) is good enough and record holders of the third oldest person in the world usually have an article. Also this article is well sourced (see article).

For the above reasons, Certainly passes WP:G, WP:BIO and not meet WP:ROUTINE.

There is also a method of marge to List of supercentenarians from the United States#People (Just as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Arbella Ewing, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shelby Harris).

I think this page is more important and more notable than Ella Schuler's page. Susie Gibson was the world's third oldest person. However, Ella Schuler was only the 7th oldest. Ella Schuler's page is should be deleted than this article.Inception2010 (talk) 10:24, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Nothing in the above keep addresses the sourcing which is what determines notability as per the quoted guidelines. You've argued what should be notable, not what is according to our guidelines. When you look at the sourcing, we have a single obituary and a book that we can't review (but probably has her in a table somewhere). That's not even close to enough. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 10:08, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The book can be read through Google books preview and it doesn't help with notability at all. I looked quickly and it appears she gets a total of 4 (out of 322) pages that simply tell us how her age was validated. CommanderLinx (talk) 01:38, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:GNG as there is no significant coverage in reliable sources. The above vote summed this up nicely. Despite Inception2010 saying so, this article is not "well sourced" at all and would fail the guidelines to biographies at the WP:WOP Wikiproject. CommanderLinx (talk) 01:38, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Update following addition of sources. Nothing to change my vote. A second ref to a book that covers her in 4 pages, another we can't read (but appears she was interviewed for) and an article that tells us three things (she's 115, read the Bible and her mother died at 104).

Keep for all the WP guidelines mentioned above. Please note that the ones who have voted 'delete' in this AfD are as much biased as the people they tag as 'SPAs', as these "delete" voters have continuously been appearing in AfD in this topic for the past year and a half; in other words, the two 'delete' votes have not come from any random third party. Now, I understand that not every supercentenarian who has lived should have his/her own Wikipedia article - in fact, I am also in favour of trimming the Longevity project here down to a sizeable amount of articles - but I do not think it is necessary to delete Mrs Gibson's article; a quick Google search reveals that Mrs Gibson still appears in newspaper articles as recently as 2015, has appeared in foreign newspapers as well, and is still commonly referred to in supercentenarian research. Therefore, I see no point in deleting her article. Fiskje88 (talk) 17:04, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Please do feel free to present examples of substantial coverage in reliable sources. I'll happily swap my opinion if you can find what I could not. One-line mentions, of course, do not assist in establishing notability. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 23:40, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Same as above, provide the sources (in the article, not in this AFD discussion) that would make it so she satisfies the notability guidelines and I'll change my vote. Because as it stands, this article doesn't even satisfy the WP:WOP Wikiproject guidelines to biographies let alone GNG. I'm also interested to see what you found because all I could find were unreliable sources (forum posts and Wiki mirrors), duplicate obituaries and table listings which doesn't help.

      - Not seeing anything significant to change my vote. One book we can't read. I think she was interviewed for it but not sure how extensive it was. Another ref is from that Supercentenarians book I commented on earlier (four pages telling us how her age was validated). The last article doesn't tell us much (other than she is 115, read the Bible and her mother lived to 104). So not changing my vote here. CommanderLinx (talk) 02:06, 28 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        We are all entitled to different opinions; to me, a person who was considered relevant enough to be discussed in two books (one of which a scientific one) and whose life was covered in foreign media outlets deserves a standalone article, as apparently there is something intriguing about her life. I do not really buy your argument of "[o]ne book we cannot read", as anyone who has taken the trouble to buy the book can actually read about her; there is more to life than (usually) short-lived Internet sources.

Keep I don't see a strong reason to delete the story, it isn't read a lot, but it's read. I did a little editing and can add a bit more to the article. There are some primary sources that can clarify some points - which I would not normally use, and generally advise against, but I think it will help tell her story a bit better. I will also add some additional content from secondary sources and see if that helps round out her story a bit better.--CaroleHenson (talk) 01:40, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The ref section is now a sea of primary sources and laughable passing mentions (my favorite: The Joy of Pickling, 3rd Edition: 300 Flavor-Packed Recipes for All Kinds of Produce from Garden or Market).

EEng, please look again. I removed the two census references. As I said above, I very rarely use primary sources (WP:PRIMARYNOTBAD). But, they have been removed.

I found so many other sources since I first mentioned I was tackling the expansion of the article. I also removed the pickle book source, just because it's not worth discussion about it. All the rest are books and news sources, like LA Times, Chicago Tribune, NPR, and some local newspapers.--CaroleHenson (talk) 20:32, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Look, you're not getting this.

The first source's entire coverage of the subject reads

Susie Potts Gibson, the youngest of three U.S. women verified to be 115, died Thursday, according to Nancy Paetz, a granddaughter. Gibson died of natural causes at an assisted living facility in Tuscumbia, Ala., where she was a resident from about 106, Paetz said. For many years before that, Gibson lived alone in the house that had been her home for about 80 years.

The second and third sources are the same, and are apparently Robert Young's story of how he looked up the subject in the US Census.
The fourth and sixth sources appear to be the same, though there's no preview.

Please list the sources that qualify under GNG. Hint: that won't include the one that tells us:

Ms. PAETZ: If you asked her what her secret was, she would tell you that it was probably three things. One, she lived for her pickles. She ate lots and lots of pickles. CHADWICK: Okay, pickles is one. Ms. PAETZ: And vinegar. CHADWICK: Vinegar. Ms. PAETZ: We kept, every time we visited, we had to go and buy big jars of vinegar, and big jars of pickles. CHADWICK: How did she take her vinegar? Ms. PAETZ: Well, she put it on everything. I don't think she ever just drank it, but she certainly drank the pickle juice.

E Eng 21:10, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The first source is the Los Angeles Times article.^[1] That content is:

LA Times: Susie Potts Gibson, 115; One of Oldest U.S. Women Attributed Longevity to Vinegar and Pickles

"Susie Potts Gibson, the youngest of three U.S. women verified to be 115, died Thursday, according to Nancy Paetz, a granddaughter.

Gibson died of natural causes at an assisted living facility in Tuscumbia, Ala., where she was a resident from about 106, Paetz said. For many years before that, Gibson lived alone in the house that had been her home for about 80 years.

She died three days after another 115-year-old woman, Bettie Wilson, died in New Albany, Miss. Both women were born in Mississippi, but Wilson was one month older than Gibson. A third woman, Elizabeth Bolden of Memphis, Tenn., the oldest of the three by one month, survives her younger peers.

With Gibson's death, Bolden becomes the second-oldest person in the world with documentation, according the Gerontology Research Group of Los Angeles. The oldest living person, also a woman, is 116-year-old Maria Capovilla of Ecuador.

Born Susan Potts, Oct. 31, 1890, in Corinth, Miss., Gibson was the child of a banker, Paetz said. Among her memorable experiences as a young woman was a cross-country trip she vividly recalled winning in 1912. She said she was in a movie theater in California when an announcer interrupted the show to tell the audience that the Titanic was sinking off the coast of Newfoundland.

She married James Gibson, a pharmacist, and the couple moved to Sheffield, Ala. Gibson outlived her husband as well as their son, James.

When Gibson was 90, she still took her boat out alone to go fishing, Paetz said.

She also enjoyed hosting bridge parties at her home and did all the cooking.

She gardened and stayed active with the women's group at her church.

Asked the secret to a long life, Gibson recommended frequent doses of vinegar. She put it on turnip greens and nearly everything else, Paetz said. She also advised eating pickles.

Paetz, however, said Gibson's longevity had to do with her basic rule about spending time.

"My grandmother put things in two pots: what she had to do and what she wanted to do," Paetz said. "Most of the time, what she wanted to do took priority. As a result she was happy."

Gibson is survived by two grandchildren and four great-grandchildren."

I have know idea what you mean about them being the same, because I don't think you saw the entire LA Times article. I don't know about the second source - that was used by someone else, I just completed the citation information. The third source is Maier, et. al. - And I think that was the source with the most information - Gibson was discussed in several / a number of places in the book.^[2]

Same thing, no idea what you mean about it being the same.

Ok, is the pickle and vinegar thing silly? - yes. Would it normally be in a WP article? - no, absolutely not. Is this a different case? - yes, IMO. It's like the guy from Russia who lived so many years because he ate yogurt. It was his thing. The pickle and vinegar business is written up many places about her. Who knows that she's not right? She lived to 115. However, as I said after the rewrite - some of the content can absolutely be pruned - there is more personal information than I put in an article.

I think you were on the same Donald Trump article as I was. I am extremely reluctant to make a list about what constitute good sources... Are you saying that the list of sources is not sufficient?

I gave this article my best college try to save it. You might not like it, and others might not like it. If the general perception is that the rewrite is insufficient to show her notability, then, that's the way it is.--CaroleHenson (talk) 23:52, 1 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies re the content of the LA Times piece -- looks like the page got stuck during loading so I only saw the first bit of it. But the problem is the same: there may be the kind of coverage in here qualifying for GNG, but it's drowning in trivia. If you're "reluctant to make a list" of which are the qualifying sources, no one else is going to go to the trouble. E Eng 00:14, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I totally get that there is a lot of personal information. My perception \ question was: What is the sort of person like who lives to be 115 years old? And, so I came at it differently than I ever had with a WP article. And, it was the detail that helped make me understand her better.

That said, I am very happy to trim out some of the detail.

What I said about sources earlier was: All the rest are books and news sources, like LA Times, Chicago Tribune, NPR, and some local newspapers. It is natural that she would be in books like Earth's Elders, Supercentenarians. None of the other sources, and probably the local newspapers are going to establish WP:GNG, right?--CaroleHenson (talk) 00:28, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I just remembered, she was also interviewed by NBC, on NBC News, and I'm pretty sure on the Today show - but I must not have felt good about the source for the Today show, because it's not in the article. If I had access to archives, I am sure that I could find more.--CaroleHenson (talk) 00:59, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what you're looking for. This is not a process I am generally involved in. I have nominated a couple of articles for deletion and a COI issue, and due to the backlog I just am doing some quid pro quo input. Anyway, guessing what more you are asking for, I am adding links to: LA Times, Chicago Tribune, NPR, Earth's Elders (I think someone used their own book, but here's their website), Supercentenarians and NBC News was mentioned in Supercentenarians. I also added two sources from Schmarrnintelligenz [8] and [9] to the article. Is this what you're needing?--CaroleHenson (talk) 01:18, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I went through and did some copy editing to smooth out some of the details. It's a smoother read, I think, now. And, although there is still detail about her personal life, hopefully we don't have to send in search and rescue for anyone drowning in trivia. : ) ...mostly laughing at myself.--CaroleHenson (talk) 02:50, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Only the LA Times piece comes even close to substantial coverage. The rest, of those visible, are passing mentions, in most cases just an entry in a list. This isn't what GNG calls for. E Eng 18:50, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I admit that some of the sources are passing mentions, like the Guinness Records book and a few other that she's just in a list. But, you just have to look at the reference section to see that there are several sources with more than passing mentions, including the multiple pages/citations for Supercentenarians and Earth's Elders. The NPR article was about her. If the list was supposed to be based upon % of content - then I would have made a different list. Like I said, I wasn't sure what you were looking for. I think you've already made up your mind - and I really didn't need to put together a list to begin with. And, that's fine. If you don't find her notable, we'll just call that a difference of opinion. I don't agree, but I do respect where you are coming from.--CaroleHenson (talk) 01:19, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for so many reasons. Still No 29 on the List of the verified oldest women. An encyclopedia is something about history. Old people are living history, their lives proof that history books are not only a waste of paper. If our notability guidelines really showed the need to delete her honorable entry (what I do not see), then we really needed to improve our notability guidelines. Notability does exist beyond New York Times, Fox News and CNN.[10][11][12][13] While certainly canvassing from outside WP is a bad thing, we must not let us push into the opposite direction from them. --S I 00:20, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your first source is a transcript of the LA Times article (and a copyvio at that), the second is just a list of names, the third is in Dutch (? -- which is fine, but I have no idea what it says), and the fourth is a dissertation, which is not an RS. E Eng 01:01, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I found a few more sources, but I don't know that they add to GNG because they are just bits of information. She's in a Guinness Record book of 2013, a New York Times article. I've added a bit of content from the New York Times article and the citations to the article and I am going to add a bit from Anniston Star. She's in other "lists" articles like this LA Times article, mention in Bettie Wilson's obituary, and more articles published in journals about chapters from Supercentenarians, but I'm not finding any other new content.--CaroleHenson (talk) 18:20, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your efforts, CaroleHenson, they are much appreciated. :) I find it interesting to see how someone deemed "not notable" (according to others reacting here) can still be retrieved in as little as 21 sources over ten years after her death; the sheer variety of sources - ranging from reliable, scientific publications to extensive obituaries and televised interviews by news crews - also goes to show that people from all layers of society - scientists, journalists, and even what some here would disdainfully call "fans" - did feel that there was something worth reporting about her. Moreover, a citation as "laughable" (a comment made by participants here who even feel that notable supercentenarians such as Sarah Knauss are not worthy of their standalone article as "age alone is no sign of notability", even when Wikipedia consensus strongly disagrees with them^[1]) as the pickles and onions story is still a great example of oral history, a tradition considered a "field of study"^[2].

No evidence of the type of sustained coverage that would meet the guidelines at WP:N; most of what is here and findable online is routine coverage, obituaries that do not establish notability or confirm any claim that her career outside of longevity was notable. There's no Wikipedia policy or consensus that states that the oldest anything is automatically notable by the encyclopedia's standards; numerous AfDs on the "oldest" individuals have been kept or deleted based on their individual merits. Thus we default to the general notability guidelines and any material of encyclopedic merit here can be included on the many longevity-related lists on Wikipedia.

@Wgolf Pratap A. Rana produced two films 'Vidya' (1948) and 'Jeet' (1949), which are still watched till this date and starred the famouus actors Suraiya and Dev Anand. He also wrote the script of 'Jeet'. There is no issue of being connected with his daughter for fame. He is still remembered for his contribution to Bollywood by his films.

Comment His notability claim comes from being a producer of those two films. The age of the two films he made doesnt matter. The question is if those two movies are notable and were/are subject of coverage in significant independent reviews and media. That should be evaluated. Then he would easily pass WP:FILMMAKER.

Merge with Fujifilm X20 and Fujifilm X30; they are successive models of a single quite popular thoug not particularly innovative camera line. It makes much more sense to cover them together: the data can be shown compactly in acomaprative fashion, and there will be sufficient reviews to show notability . I'm not sure about the best name for the merged article. DGG ( talk ) 05:42, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and oppose merge. One article per product is the established convention across Wikipedia, and has almost universally been applied to camera articles. Arbitrary decisions about which articles are allowed to stand alone are rather problematic, especially when economic interests are involved. Note that I fully support having summary articles - we have these at all levels - Fujifilm products, X series products, etc. As DGG has said, there is no particularly slick name offering itself in this case. Convention would suggest "Fujifilm X10 series". Samsara 08:54, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Merge all three cameras. One article per product is absolutely not an established convention. If that were true, Wikipedia would be a catalog, and it's WP:NOT. The guideline Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) specifialy says, at WP:PRODUCT "Avoid creating multiple stubs about each individual product (PU-36 Explosive Space Modulator, Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator, R-36 Explosive Space Modulator, etc.) especially if there is no realistic hope of expansion." At Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yamaha FZ700 this was discussed in depth and I found numerous examples of deletions on the grounds that each individual model of motorcycle did not merit an article, and zero examples of motorcycle articles kept because they were a model, without also meeting WP:GNG. The misconception about product models is an ongoing problem. Part of this is due to the formatting issue created when you have three {{Infobox camera}}s or {{Infobox motorcycle}}s and not enough text to support the vertical space they take up when stacked. We need a technical solution to this, which is possible. But the proliferation of articles for each model of something has to be beaten back whenever possible. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 16:17, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- without also meeting WP:GNG which you have not established isn't actually true here. Also, since you mention rendering problems with merged articles, do you understand how merging affects hProduct tags and mobile browsing? Samsara 20:42, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - Why should we care about hproduct tags? Which notability policy says we have to acoomodate hproduct tags? Seems like any attempt to make a 1:1 correlation between articles and hproduct tags is a flagrant contradiction of the WP:NOTCATALOG policy. The documentation says "The hProduct microformat can assist consumers, manufacturers and retailers in a number of ways". Wikipedia does not exist to serve the needs of consumers, manufacturers, or retailers. If you must make one page per product for hformat to work, they need to fix that bug in hformat. You can't ask the world to change to fit your structured data scheme. Your format must change to describe the world. As far as GNG, this product has received zero coverage in any sources, except product reviews. The policy WP:NOTCATALOG says " Encyclopedic significance may be indicated if mainstream media sources (not just product reviews) provide commentary on these details instead of just passing mention. "
    Also mobile devices? If your mobile device browser can't reasonably display Honda Super Cub or Ford Mustang or Crazy Taxi (series) correctly, your device has a bug. You need a new browser or a new smartphone. Perhaps try one of the several Wiki viewer apps on the market. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 22:20, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    - Mainstream media sources? No problem. The Telegraph, Daily Mail, FOCUS and Spiegel all wrote full length articles about it. [15] [16] [17] [18] Maybe do a little bit of research yourself next time. Samsara 19:54, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
      - You don't seem to understand that routine product reviews do not establish notability. Personal remarks like "Maybe do a little bit of research yourself next time" are just rude, and do not add to the notability of the product. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 20:12, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
        What else should one write about a camera other than a review? An opera, perhaps? Please enlighten me! Samsara 20:44, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep A simple WP:BEFORE style search show multiple significant reviews of the camera in mainstream sources like PC Magazine and TechCrunch, and quite in-depth reviews in specialist publications like DP Review and Imaging Resource. This camera is also notable for an early technical fault, the "white orb" problem, which forced a product-wide firmware update: sources include [19], [20], and an SPIE paper. Multiple in-depth reliable sources show notability per WP:GNG. A notable topic and an article with WP:POTENTIAL for improvement suggest keeping the article. I am not opposed to a summary article describing the Fujifilm X-series cameras--indeed we already have one at Fujifilm X-series. But there is plenty of sourcing for a stand alone X10 article. --Mark viking (talk) 22:25, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I guess we have to agree to disagree on whether or not any of that equals notablity. The product reviews have already been shown by policy to not add to notability. Bendgate or exploding-Galaxy Note 7-gate is a notable product issue; orbgate is not. It received no attention besides a couple very short blog posts in specialized media. There was a bug, they upgraged the firmaware, bug fixed. There's no reason why all of this can't be covered in an article on all 3 versions in this series.
  A redirect and merge in no way prevents this topic from reaching it's potential. If the X10 portion of the article grows to great size, it can spawn its own article from the redirect. The only argument presented at this WP:POTENTIAL essay is that it might eventually lead to an article that is too long and "constrain encyclopedia expansion". Constrain how? What constraints? It makes no sense. If it does get too long, split it. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 01:13, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - If the X10 portion of the article grows to great size, it can spawn its own article from the redirect. Notability is not assessed by article size. Samsara 07:56, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - Yep, we disagree. Your quote above was only in the context of sales catalog pricing and availability, which is irrelevant here. If product reviews are of sufficient depth and originality/independence that they go way beyond any sales materials, they are independent RS upon which to build an article and count toward notability. I think all four sources mentioned above are in sufficient depth to qualify and the DP Review and Imaging Resource reviews are especially thorough. --Mark viking (talk) 08:39, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Lets be realistic about the potential question. Why would anyone now want to write about these cameras, and why would anyone read it?Rathfelder (talk) 07:59, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - Because there are always people who care about completeness. Samsara 08:04, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - Because there are people more interested in cameras than you are? This is an argument to avoid in deletion discussions, per WP:WHOCARES. --Mark viking (talk) 08:39, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    - WP:NOT does not say reviews can rise to become something more than reviews with extra depth, independence or originality. A review is still a review. And anyway, the reviews we've been shown of the X10 are perfunctory. These review websites routinely crank out these reviews of everything.
      If sources exist which could be used to expand the article, that's potential. If the sources don't exist, we don't keep articles because we hope someday sources will be published. That is not potential, it's speculation and wishful thinking.
      It is true that notability would prevent splitting off an article later -- what I can't figure out is a situation where the quantity of content about the X10 has grown to 5-10 thousand words or more, yet none of it is based on sources that can establish notability. A standalone X10 article would be come possible if something new is found, or is published. Based on what we have now, there is no notability, and no potential beyond a stub. That essay Potential is terrible. It hasn't been updated since 2009, and it clearly doesn't reflect real policy or real guidelines. It's more like an artifact left over from a failed argument on the direction policy would take seven years ago.
      I say this as a Fujifilm fanboy; I'm afraid to admit how much I've spent on the Fuji cameras and lenses sitting here next to me. This X10/20/30 series of closely-related cameras could be a fine article, with interesting information and overall, taken together, the three models are significant. But the differences between the three are trivial, evolutionary changes of one component here, another component there. All these little product perma-stubs are bad content and unhelpful for our readers. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 16:34, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think my question produced a helpful answer. I suggest a merger of the 3 articles would be a sensible solution. The individual items in themselves are not separately very interesting. Taken together they get over the threshold.Rathfelder (talk) 20:31, 27 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any such consensus here, sorry! Samsara 19:54, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Because there are always people who care about completeness"? What does that mean? In what way does merging the articles prevent any editor from achieving "completeness"? If you have facts to add to the topic, add them. If some day this camera sub-model becomes notable, and we have so much to say about it that a merged article can't contain it all, we can split it back out. This amounts to nothing more than a desire to have 1 article per product name -- not even distinct products, but one product with three slightly different versions, and 3 slightly different names. Avoiding this nonsense is why the Honda Fit article covers the Honda Jazz car and three different generations which are significantly more different from one another than these three camera model names. Featured articles like Holden Commodore (VE) similarly combine coverage of product variants that appeared over a span of time. This is all for the benefit of the reader. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 20:12, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"significantly more different from one another than these three camera model names" That is your argument? You only looked at the names and decided they weren't sufficiently different? I'm unsure sometimes if you even understand the broader implications of your soundbites. Samsara 20:55, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That other similar topics have their own articles is not valid reason to keep this one. Every article subject needs to prove its notability based on reliable sources to stay on Wikipedia. Articles in published magazines, coverage by renowned news sites, books or scholarly works about article subject are all reliable sources for Wikipedia. Pavlor (talk) 12:58, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Edit: I see Nasuni article has some references from RS (eg. The Register). I will review these and add more later (if there are more...). Pavlor (talk) 13:11, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My review of RS in the article:

First The Reg [21]: Mostly company (and its officials) about itself = weak source

Computerweekly [22]: company mentioned 2 times in one paragraph = passing mention as an example = weak source

Second The Reg [23]: mostly company (and its officials) about itself = weak source

Third The Reg [24]: About tests by the company - based on company report = somewhat better, still weak

Conclusion: Although article subject is mentioned in several reliable sources, this coverage is shallow at best.

Another source (not yet in the article; heise.de/iX magazine): [25] This one looks better than current sources (there is talk about limitations etc.) = useable RS Pavlor (talk) 17:11, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep There are many reliable sources about subject of this article. Although their coverage is somewhat thin, I think they are sufficient to estabilish notability. Pavlor (talk) 16:54, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- the page can be "improved" by removing the sections "History", "Products", "Customers" and "Awards" (i.e. all of them).

List of Manipuri films of 2016

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

List of films which does not seem to satisfy WP:SAL. Twenty-eight films are listed, but only two have stand-alone Wikipedia articles and none of the rest appear to be Wikipedia notable. No reliable sources are provided for any of the entries including a few which have yet to be released. The article was prodded for deletion, but the prod was challenged. So, I am bringing it to AfD instead. I tried finding independent reliable sources for some of these films, but had no luck. As stated at Talk:List of Manipuri films of 2016#Deletion objection, I have no problem if the community feels merging is more appropriate that deletion, but the only possible merge candidate I can think of is Manipuri Cinema and that article is also not very well sourced to begin with. Merging lots of unsourced content into another poorly sourced article seems to be nothing more than moving the problem from one article to another. Perhaps adding the two entries with stand-alone articles to "Manipuri Cinema" is possible, but it's also questionable whether those two particular films even satisfy WP:NFILM. Finally, it is possible that better sourcing for these films can be found in non-English sources, but I'm not sure where to find them. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:04, 1 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The linked version of the Russian Jewish Encyclopedia is, technically, a wiki, but the main page states (in English) that it is an "online adaptation" of a printed source. Inclusion there and the "Honored Artist" appointment indicates notability, but achieving a better article probably requires more work with printed Russian-language sources.

List of stadiums in Hyderabad

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

No evidence that this requires a stand-alone list. Hyderabad is just a city in India and this is adequately covered in List of stadiums in India. See WP:LISTCRUFT; this is only likely to be of interest to a small number of people. Spiderone 20:11, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~ there's a lot of stadiums in India; this seems like a reasonable split. Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 20:20, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I can't see why so much detail is needed. The amount of detail in List of stadiums in India is absolutely fine; if people want more detail then they can click on the individual article. The question is, what makes Hyderabad so special that it would be able to have a stand-alone list capable of meeting WP:GNG? Spiderone 20:39, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing here is preventing people from making other stand-alone lists for other Indian states. The fact is that there are 177 stadiums in the main list, and if anyone decides to write up some actual prose or include more details on them, it's going to be awfully unwieldy. Splitting into lists like this allows for more detail without overwhelming the main list. Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 21:54, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hyderabad isn't even a state; it's just a city and only the 5th largest in India. I'm looking through Wikipedia:Viability_of_lists#Being_discriminate and still feel that this list falls on the wrong side of notability. I don't feel that the main India stadium list is too big. Just because a topic is notable, does not mean it needs a list. Common sense and consensus should prevail. Spiderone 22:08, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops, my bad and apologies to you—that'll teach me to trust my memory. I could see an argument for dividing by state, but not by city. That said, much of this content is sourced and could be applicable elsewhere. Merge relevant info to Hyderabad#Sports? Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 04:26, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, apology accepted! I wouldn't be opposed to a redirect to Hyderabad with a view to keeping some of the sourced prose. I'm wary that Hyderabad is a featured article and wouldn't want to put any unsourced or unnecessary list content in there. Spiderone 18:53, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

One major flaw of your argument is that there are hundreds of cities in the world that have hosted major sporting events at some point in their history; to create these lists is pure WP:LISTCRUFT; the country listings are sufficient. At a stretch, I wouldn't mind listings per state (especially for USA and India) but to do listings for each individual city is ridiculous. Spiderone 10:41, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note that this murder 1.) at first drew intense regional attention as a region-wide search for missing teenagers (who, it turned out< had gone to buy drugs. 2.) Drew international attention after the bodies were eventually discovered in a vacant lot (headline ""Empty city hides the dead," ) at a time when Detroit was the emblematic city in a period of media focus on the dacay of American inner cities, 3.) drew attention again as the unusually brutal attention of the killings was revealed, and 4.) drew national attention due to the grandstanding of one of the the murderers at sentencing.

Decent rewrite, but I'm still unconvinced. No aspect of the case (brutal murder, widespread search, etc.) is particularly unusual or important as far as murders go. There's no indication that this case had any importance for e.g. police or judicial practice, or that it received coverage after the sentencing. I also don't get what the odd quote of the perpetrator is supposed to convey. Yes, there is quite a bit of media coverage, but that is to be expected in grisly murders, hence NOTNEWS.

How is that not an IDONTLIKEIT argument? Our general criteria is sources. We have them. Over a sustained time and over as wide a geographic area as is possible. WP:EVENT is met in spades. Hobit (talk) 10:57, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOT#NEWS, and per the lack of secondary sources. There seems to have long been an impression among Wikipedia editors that news reports are secondary sources for the events that they describe. They are considered to be primary sources by historians and everyone else outside of Wikipedia, so that is how we should consider them. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 22:50, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

~~Nonsense.~~ We routinely and properly write and keep articles about significant, notable events as they occur. Based on reliable sources, of course. This is not a valid argument for deletion.

Your proposal would eliminate about 80% of Wikipedia, making things like the NYT, Washington Post and the like not sources we could use. That's a really really big change you are proposing and moves quite far into IAR. Hobit (talk) 10:59, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No, it wouldn't make them into sources we could not use. There are many occasions when such publications publish articles that can be regarded as secondary sources, such as articles reviewing a situation or profiling a person, but day-to-day news reports are primary sources for the events that they describe, and have always been treated as such by historians. Do you want to deprecate WP:NOT#NEWS? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 19:06, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep all (provisionally at least). No arguments have been provided in this nomination, other than that previous discussions were closed as delete. Despite claims to the contrary, this is precisely WP:ALLORNOTHING (We've deleted other articles in Category:Wikipedia articles about X, so this needs to go too.) and is therefore not nearly enough to delete dozens of articles. Nevertheless, at first I thought the original discussions probably had some more elaborate arguments for deletion, but sadly these are not any better ("this is the only existing under age national team article and template", "similar articles have been deleted so far", "we don't have such articles, others have been deleted", "Wikiproject Volleyball do not back the creation of under age national teams articles" - all completely invalid arguments). Perhaps the only "line of attack" against these articles is WP:GNG, assessed on an individual basis. I'm definitely not claiming here that any or all of these meet WP:GNG, and that's why my "keep" is provisional (i.e. on an individual basis and given proper arguments, I might say otherwise). GregorB (talk) 11:51, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It is really sad not. I do not know why a WikiProject would ever exist then. This is not WP:ALLORNOTHING. Is a consensus about the editors under WikiProject Volleyball that decided not having under age teams or players (with strong exceptions). They do not meet WP:GNG also. I have not hear before anything like provisionally keep, you feel dubious yourself about this. --Osplace 12:48, 26 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

While Wikiprojects may establish project-wide standards and conventions, deletion criteria are not within their purview, at least not in the negative sense: i.e. projects may say such-and-such is presumed notable per convention, but I don't think projects can establish presumptions of non-notability.

Azusa shooting

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

WP:NOTNEWS. More recent reports are clarifying that the shooter did not directly hit a polling station, but that polling stations were nearby and not targets. It was a run-of-the-mill shootout between the shooter and police after the former killed a neighbor for whatever reason (I'm assuming personal disputes). The injured were hit in the crossfire. All in all, definitely not newsworthy in the long run, and the initial story was probably spun right off the bat due to the ongoing election coverage at the time. Another reason why news outlets need to check their sources first before going onto a story. Parsley Man (talk) 23:43, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as creator. Even if this would normally be a run of the mill crime, the extensive coverage it got in the news was notable, even if that coverage was due to bad reporting. What sources are you talking about which clear this up? Could you cite them here? The two I used were:
- Ravaesz, Rachael. "California shooting: At least one dead and three injured as police respond to active shooter situation in Azusa". independent.co.uk. The shooting reportedly took place near a polling station
- Cleary, Tom. "Azusa, California, Shooting: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know". The Gunman Fired At Least 20 Shots at Police Before Retreating Into a House After Officers Returned Fire

That this received additional coverage to "clear up" the case only serves to supports it having continual coverage and notability, as opposed to something which received no followup. Ranze (talk) 19:29, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Mostly local sources, which have been continuing to cover the shooting after the higher-tier mainstream media sources like CNN have moved on to the protests against Donald Trump. But, ongoing coverage or not, it doesn't matter. Small shootings have been generally judged to be WP:NOTNEWS and deleted. Parsley Man (talk) 22:00, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

User:Ranze. It appears that the "near a polling" place angle briefly caught some media attention; of course, most of urban America is "near a polling place," and media have not continued on this tack. I do see why it was created, but unless there is some ongoing attention..., or rationale for more than local notability....E.M.Gregory (talk) 22:29, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Per overall coverage. also after-election. BabbaQ (talk) 19:30, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That is very poor reasoning. Coverage was overshadowed by the election itself and was restricted to local sources. After the election, the coverage has completely stopped. There are no more recent articles on this incident anymore. Parsley Man (talk) 23:59, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

How, exactly? This did not affect the election whatsoever besides a little media freakout and misunderstanding, and besides, the coverage seems to have completely stopped for a couple of days. Parsley Man (talk) 18:01, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOTNEWS. It got a bit of coverage when it first happened, when they thought it was possibly related to the election, but once it was discovered to not be so, this coverage pretty much stopped. Though tragic, it was just a run-of-the-mill crime, with no lasting notability whatsoever. 64.183.45.226 (talk) 18:11, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Parsely in response to some claims you've been making about this like "the initial story was probably spun" and "Coverage was overshadowed" and "This did not affect the election whatsoever besides a little media freakout and misunderstanding" these 3 claims seem like injection of personal opinion into the matter. Do you have any reliable sources supporting your claims that the story was spun, or that it was overshadowed, or that had no effect?

"restricted to local sources" and "After the election, the coverage has completely stopped" are more tangible claims which I can address. Your first claim is clearly wrong because The Independent covered it, and that is a British paper. This means it went beyond local coverage, it had international/intercontinental coverage in Europe. Regarding your second claim, the United States presidential election, 2016 happened November 8 which would mean anything from November 9 and later would be post-election coverage. The following source shows coverage from November 10, disproving the claim that coverage "completely stopped":

"Drug Binge Preceded Deadly Azusa Shooting Near Polling Place". CBS Sacramento. 10 November 2016.

There's also another from November 15 showing ongoing coverage. Would you care to rephrase these 2 objections? Ranze (talk) 07:23, 18 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - this appears to be a generic crime with no indication of any significance outside its local area and no lasting significance there. I'd note that those people above claiming that a mention in The Independent means it was "covered in a British newspaper" are engaged in a good-faith misunderstanding; the Indy is long-since defunct as a newspaper, and the website that now uses the name is a dubious news aggregator and opinion site run by Alexander Lebedev, and (despite still calling itself an "online newspaper") is basically a more Putin-friendly version of Buzzfeed. ‑ Iridescent 22:47, 27 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NOTNEWS, and WP:ROUTINE. I recall this happening on election day; after the initial spike of concern it was apparent that this was local trouble and not part of any broader narrative.

NYTimes here: [49]. 40 hits on proquest archive. all to this Maska, Johanna, but overwhelmingly about about her move form the White House to job as an executive at the LATimes; and about the subsequent firing of her boss and of her in a management shakeup.

@E.M.Gregory: Thanks, but that doesn't change anything for me: The Chicago Tribune and NYT links contain extremely brief mentions that she was hired and then sacked - far from what we require to meet WP:BIO.

Once pruned of self-sourced puffery, blogs etc., the only independent source cited is a reprinted press release. In the 150 or so unique Google hits, I don't see any credible sources to establish notability or support content in the existing article. The edit history shows the article was created by someone involved in the project, and the current edit war is being driven by someone else from the company. The main non-COI contributor is Mark Bergsma (WMF), I thnk we use LibreNMS , a fork. That does not obviate the need for reliable independent sources, of which there are, at this point, none.

The previous AfD, in 2010, closed as no consensus. One of the two Keep arguments was: "Comparison of network monitoring systems demands having a dedicated Wikipedia article for every system listed". If I had closed that AfD I would have rejected that. You want an article so you can include it in a list where the consensus is that only notable (i.e. with-articles) software is listed? That is circular reasoning, and Wikipedia is not a directory. The other Keep argument, advanced by the project's creator and endorsed by one other user, was a list of four links. The first of these was a reprint of the second (clearly identified as such in the text). The second is simply a press release, the third is a blog and the fourth is 404 now but was simply a schedule of events for a techmoot. Guy (Help!) 15:14, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It is my opinion that this topic is noteworthy, however it is abundantly clear that the article has been created purely from self-sourced material by the owners of the product. It also seems clear that those owners are unwilling to allow the article to exist in an NPOV format. I would like to see the page rewritten by somebody unconnected with the project (or LibreNMS), but without independent sources, I don't know what can be done, so I believe deletion is the best action at this point. 185.102.133.45 (talk) 12:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is a nice NMS that unfortunately has not gotten attention in the press. My most promising source finds were [50], an RS that is not in enough depth on the non-howto material, and [51], which is a reasonable review, but is a blog post and thus not an RS. They are not enough to satisfy notability thresholds. I was unable to find a good merge/redirect target. In short, this may be WP:TOOSOON for the topic. --Mark viking (talk) 19:32, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I don't know anything about this. However, Theodore M. Drange references the argument in this book. Michael Martin also uses it in this book.

Keep There is also the Philo paper Incompatible-Properties Arguments: A Survey that looks like a reasonable secondary source for incompatible properties in a religious context and the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy has an article on Change and Inconsistency that discusses incompatible properties in a philosophical metaphysical context. The books found by NRP in addition to these sources shows there seems to be enough reliable sourcing to satisfy WP:GNG and to write a modest article. If the sourcing is there, the article has WP:SURMOUNTABLE problems and can be improved. On that basis, a marginal keep. --Mark viking (talk) 20:12, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. A cursory search for the game in the video game reliable sources custom Google search (or honestly, even a regular Google search) shows at least a dozen independent sources--more than sufficient and with enough dedicated depth for the GNG. czar 06:08, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I withdraw the nomination based on Czar's research.
Speedy Keep I may be biased because this is my article, but this article does meet the GNG. The game has a significant hype following it. A simple Google search will show a large variety of media outlets reporting on it. As for references, I can't always add them because of time constraints. I still go to school, so a lot of websites are blocked, including the website for the game and Reddit. When I find sites that I CAN add, I often have no time because I still have to learn. I'll get the references done, but I do believe the article meets the GNG because of how notable it is in the gaming community, and the hype about it.

Keep and Rename to Historic sites in Cranford, New Jersey *OR* Merge / Redirect to Cranford, New Jersey From the nomination here and the discussion at the talk page with the article's creator, it appears that our nominator doesn't understand the obligations imposed by WP:PRESERVE. As pointed out, the article is *NOT* about the Cranford Historical Preservation Advisory Board; it's about historic sites in the municipality, which are overseen by the Cranford Historical Preservation Advisory Board. The issues raised could be readily addressed by keeping the article exactly as is and renaming it to Historic sites in Cranford, New Jersey, a change that cold have been made in a few seconds. Alternatively, with slightly more effort, the nominator could have suggested that the content in the article be merged to the parent article Cranford, New Jersey and this article turned into a redirect.

I'd excuse your arrogance and blame simple ignorance, but an editor with more than 60,000 edits should be aware that WP:PRESERVE is part of Wikipedia:Editing policy, which as it turns is actually a policy that states rather clearly that you have an affirmative obligation to Fix problems if you can, flag or remove them if you can't. Preserve appropriate content. As long as any facts or ideas would belong in an encyclopedia, they should be retained in Wikipedia. As an editor who spends a rather disturbing amount of time trying to save our village by destroying it, you may also want to review your obligations under Wikipedia:Deletion policy, yet another policy that hasn't been observed here.

Comment. There is some coverage, including an 1884 New York Times article [53], the NRHP filing for the nearby Six Mile Run Reformed Church [54], and several local history books, that confirm this cemetery was the old burying ground for that historic church, and the burial site of an important figure in early New Jersey history, Theodorus Jacobus Frelinghuysen. --Arxiloxos (talk) 05:57, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Hey Aussie - I'm curious about this one. WikiProject TV doesn't have specific notability criteria, but it would seem that if the series airs on a major network, in this case RAI, doesn't that make the cut? I don't have time at present to research, and I'm also not familiar with what did and doesn't constitute a reliable Italian source. I'll have to try to remember to search on "le straordinarie avventure di jules verne". Cyphoidbomb (talk) 06:53, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

TV ads air on major networks, but that doesn't make them notable. This issue here is verifiability. WP:GNG requires significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. I don't see any of that coverage. --AussieLegend (✉) 07:20, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Mistakes in naagin

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

Editorial piece that attempts to analyze inconsistencies with Naagin (TV series). Constitues original research. Has no standalone notability and if it were incorporated into Naagin (TV series), would still constitute WP:OR and would contravene MOS:TV#Technical errors and continuity issues ("bloopers" or "goofs"), which says: "Unsourced sections about technical errors or continuity issues should generally be avoided. If there is a major mistake that is discussed by a reliable source it can become a part of the production section. See also WP:BLOOPERS." The user who submitted it is new, but the creation of this article was done to circumvent my admonishment that he not resubmit it at Naagin (TV series), which he had done three times. So it's basically an edit-warring situation as well, if you want to think of it as that. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 04:21, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dr Bhanu Pratap Singh

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

This is a difficult article to parse since it doesn't meet layout guidelines, but the general sense is that this is a fellow who has won a few awards and has a large stamp/coin collection. I'm not sure that makes him notable. It's a bit difficult to sift through Google News since there are other individuals with this same name who are more prominent. Mr. Vernon (talk) 04:12, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete While the article makes lots of claims about the Singh, they are either unverified, or in the case of the ones like "creating the world's largest envelope" while it is verified with a link to Guiness, we lack secondary coverage to show that anyone really cares that he did such a thing.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:18, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

you can see links I gave about Dr SInghs claim of making world's largest envelop as its verified by many record books specially GUINNESS BOOK POF WORLD REORDS a=which is an independent authority with its strict rules and clauses to gave /verify anyone's claim similarly there are links of Many websites about Dr Singh plz see and verify it

if you want to verify these claims I can produce all certificates , plz send the email address where I have to send these certificates, DR Singhs achievements are published in many newspaper of India and I mentioned all the references . plz see all and decide about the deletion — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anu214 (talk • contribs) 06:52, 20 November 2016 (UTC) Thanks[reply]

Comment: Johnpacklambert, Guiness is certainly independent of Bhanu Pratap Singh, and so whether the record is reported by anyone else seems irrelevant when it comes notability concerns or any other deletion issue. It may or may not be a content issue (whether "anyone really cares that he did such a thing" and consequentially should we mention it) but we are here to discuss inclusion of the article, not its content. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 22:01, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: When I look for sources there is plenty of unusable social media. However I do see some newspaper coverage [55] and other stuff that is just passing mentions. If Anu214 is correct about newspaper coverage then notability of this person is shown. Note that there have been 3 earlier speedy deletions of what is probably an autobiography by a user DRBPSINGH1961. However the current page is better in that it includes some references, is not just a pure CV, and has significant content. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 23:38, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete, db-spam. Hairhorn (talk) 04:30, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article is so badly written that it is hard to separate out notability, fluff and just poor formatting and grammar. Guinness world records(or the two other record recording organizations cited) by themselves do not confer notability since in many cases it is nothing but finding some obscure thing that no one else wants to do and neither does martial hall of fame awards from non-notable organizations. By the breathless nature of the prose one can't help the feeling that a wikipedia page is just part of the collection. The article itself was declined during the AfC process but just copy pasted over Peter Rehse (talk) 11:01, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Furthermore notability isn't granted by association by a famous relative per WP:INVALIDBIO, it isn't much a stretch to say that this person isn't notable just because they own something in the Guinness Book of World Records. --Mr. Vernon (talk) 02:49, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I took some time to format the article so that it might be possible to find indications of notability. There are many claims of minor notability here, but there is no significant coverage in reliable sources that supports this person's notability. Yes, it appears that he has some "records" for trivial accomplishments that no doubt represent some effort on his part, but without coverage in reliable sources, we can't have an article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 03:38, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Jonesey95 for the editing the article, its very helpful for me, All are concerned about the Records, Just read all the content m DR Singh did 2 PhDs on Numismatics due to his interest in Coins, he did his PhD on new area that is Study of Coin issued by Local rulers of Chhattisgarh and coins of Naga Kings of PAdmavati . Both areas are new in relation to Knowledge and study about these coinages. At present he is also doing his D Lit in Coinages of Kalachuri Kings of South Kosala( Present Chhattisgarh) from 900AD -1500 AD) he has a good collection of these coins also, his articles on Coins are published in many Journals . Apart from this, he is also producer of Two films one of which { Mantostaan ) was screened at cannes International Film Festival, Sanfrancisco Film Festival, Melbourne film Festival, In Goa Int Film Festival in 2016. Also selected for London Asian Film festival 2017. what else you want to prove notability about a person?

There are many pages of various actors , some social workers with very little work in comparison to Dr Singh's work . All I am doing is just to appreciate his work and to make pageof a person who is doing these works from his own Pocket. regarding mistakes in grammar, style, cohesion tone and spelling , Its my fault as I am new in This field and trying to make this page about Dr Singh, SO need help from all the volunteers like Mr Jonesey95, who improved the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anu214 (talk • contribs) 13:06, 30 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, the subject of the article is not notable. His company Common Craft does have an article but that does not mean that he himself is notable. Another important thing which I discovered was the WP:COI conflict of interest. This article was created by User:Dbarefoot (Darren Barefoot) who is a friend of LeFever according to this. I have also noticed that User:Leelefever has made a couple edits to the page Darren Barefoot before it was deleted. Because of the deletion, those edits can't be seen.

The result was redirect to Long-Sault Bridge. There seems to be consensus that the page shouldn't exist as a standalone article. However, some participants have dug up more information in this discussion which can be potentially added to the article about the successor bridge. Accordingly, I am closing it as a redirect with the history preserved. Given Bearcat's valid concerns about the content in the article along with the lack of reliable sourcing, I decided against a merge.

Comment I generally like to preserve historical information and dug up some facts about this bridge that I could add to the article: named after M.P. George Perley who advocated for its construction in 1909, designed by 1919, completed in 1931, actually raised higher in 1961 to facilitate shipping after construction of Carillon Generating Station, length was 2284 feet, 27 trestle spans, 7 other kinds of spans, 24 foot wide roadway, piers sit on sold rock. One span failed in 1972 and was repaired which led to study that found it severely deteriorated and was being subjected to traffic/weight for which it was not designed. Also, the bridge spans Ottawa and Quebec and the bridge caused Grenville, Quebec to have political/cultural influences from Hawkesbury, Ottawa. In 1986, local, provincial, and federal politicians reached consensus that a replacement was needed.

This would greatly improve the article; however I not going to do this unless there is a decision to keep it. It might still be insufficient for notability. MB 19:46, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge, to Long-Sault Bridge (the successor bridge, which is a short article that no one is questioning). To break the impasse here, about whether to add material and sources or not, and see if they're adequate for individual notability or not. How about merge/redirect to a section in the successor bridge. Any and all material about the Perley Bridge can go to a section there. If it seems appropriate to split it back out, that can be done. If it seems appropriate to rename the combo article to Perley and Long-Sault Bridge or whatever, that can be done. There is no need to delete the article outright, and if in fact it seems appropriate to re-separate it then the redirect, with its edit history intact, can be revised. This seems like an obvious alternative-to-deletion that should be followed. --do ncr am 03:20, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
merge -- support merging to the existing bridge with a redirect, per above. Probably shouldn't stand alone without more info and sourcing; no need to get rid of it entirely. -- phoebe / (talk to me) 23:49, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. WP:BLP of an actor, referenced only to IMDb and glancing namechecks of his existence in articles that aren't about him. As always, Wikipedia is not a place where every actor is automatically entitled to an article just because he exists as a working actor -- reliable source coverage about him, verifying that he passes one or more WP:NACTOR criteria, is required for an article to become earned -- until that can be done, which it hasn't here, it's WP:TOOSOON.

Delete I agree that it's TOOSOON. There may well be coverage in the future--but there also may not be, and there's really nothing to be gained by holding open a one-sentence entry in case of coverage we don't even know will necessarily come.

Keep should be kept as at least a stub. Jurnee457 (talk) 06:21, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A person gets a Wikipedia article by being the subject of enough substantive coverage in reliable sources. There is no such thing as any claim of notability that entitles a person to "keep a stub" in the absence of enough reliable source coverage to support it — notability is a measure of sourceability, not of what anybody thinks about the "importance" of any unsourced or poorly sourced claims. And there is simply no such thing as "some people are notable enough for stubs while others are notable enough for longer articles", either — notability has no bearing on how short or long an article is allowed to be, but only on whether or not an article is allowed to exist at all. Once notability is properly covered off, any article is allowed to be as long or as short as the substance of what there is to cover allows it to be — beyond the basic question of whether an article is allowed to exist at all, there are no further gradations of notability that govern an article's permitted length.

delete as non-notable crime.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:11, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Every criminal incident that happens at all is not automatically a valid article topic on Wikipedia just because of the inevitable blip of "as it's happening" coverage in the local media. I live in Toronto, so I obviously remember this quite well, but Wikipedia is WP:NOTNEWS — for something like this to qualify for a Wikipedia article, there would have to be some indication that it satisfies the ten-year test, which nothing written or sourced here does. And the limited media coverage since isn't adding anything compelling either: the victims were his own mother and brothers, so this was a conventional murder and not an "attack" in the way we normally use that term, and the "suspicious package" was a false alarm that permanently disappeared from any further mention as soon as the bomb squad went home. So as sad as the incident was, there's no discernible reason why 2026 would need this article to exist. Bearcat (talk) 17:58, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ann Johnston (American politician)

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

Doesn't seem to meet guidelines for politicans per WP:POLITICIAN - a local politician. Nothing here indicating that she's notable via news coverage outside of normal local news coverage. Mr. Vernon (talk) 00:26, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge, tentatively, into a new, bigger list-article. I haven't tried to find sources on Ann Johnston, and am just assuming for the moment that the nom is correct and she is not individually-Wikipedia-notable. Assuming that, we can still be a little bit creative and positive here, and not just tear down stuff. This article was started as part of a series of articles on mayors of Stockton, which are linked by "preceded by" and "succeeded by" links in their infoboxes. It doesn't make sense to rip one out of the sequence, leaving no connection between the other articles. From looking at a few others in the sequence, it seems to me that some of them are individually notable. And given that some will have articles, it is justifiable to have a list of them. It is arguable, as with this one, that some of them don't need to have separate articles. That's okay, but we don't have to lose the information: just merge any non-notable ones into a standalone list-article of the mayors, or a list that can be created in a section of the Stockton, California city article. And leave a redirect to the appropriate row in the list-article. The edit history of this article can survive in the redirect, and if/when more sources emerge, the article on Ann Johnston can be restored and further developed, with the edit history intact.

Note: It is not necessary for the standalone list-article (or section in the city article) to exist yet, for this AFD to be concluded with a "Merge" decision. I for one am willing to create a list-article (or decide to create a list in a city article section) and implement the merge, if it is closed that way. But even if there are no volunteers in advance, it still can be closed with this kind of decision. The closer just needs to indicate what needs to be done using the appropriate banner template on the article (which I have seen used sometimes, although I don't see mention of it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion#How an AfD discussion is closed, where it should in fact be mentioned.) --do ncr am 02:07, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Further note: This AFD does not need to rule on whether a List of mayors of Stockton, California (currently a redlink) is itself valid as a standalone list-article. Offhand, it seems valid to me, as Stockton is a largish city (13th largest in California), and as there are more than a few members already in Category:Lists of mayors of places in California. Leave it to whoever chooses to create the list. They can choose to redirect the list-topic to a section in the city article if they like, it doesn't matter here. --do ncr am 02:18, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Johnston was mayor of Stockton, California, a city of well over 300,000 people. During her time in office, Stockton filed bankruptcy, the largest U.S. city to ever do so. I routinely recommend deleting articles about small town mayors. Stockton is a major city, California's third largest seaport, and the 63rd largest city in the U.S. I consider mayors of such significant cities notable. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 02:34, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I agree with Cullen328: Stockton is a big enough and important enough city that its mayors are notable for their work as mayor.
