Time for another AfD here. Being the oldest of a defined religious background is not itself notable, and despite the claims of the first AfD there's almost no biographical information about him.

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Nicholas Kao Se Tseien to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

  • The sources were published in 2004, 2005, and 2007 and establish that Nicholas Kao Se Tseien has received persistent coverage in reliable sources. The sources discuss his career as a priest in detail and provide plenty of biographical background about him.

  • Comment he was a priest (not notable), had some surgeries and accidents (me too, some more exciting then his), traveled a bit (2 hour plane ride!) and had some family. Where is the notability? Legacypac (talk) 06:43, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Cunard. "Tseien" as he has multiple articles written about him, he satisfies GNG. (Plus he's accomplished more than that American sailor who also survived AfD, despite his sole distinction being the first to sight the enemy.) Clarityfiend (talk) 07:50, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:GNG and WP:NOPAGE. There is no policy that the "oldest x" is notable and there is nothing to say about this man other then fancruft like he was the oldest person to have a cataract operation and was part of the Catholic Church. What even is the claim to notability here? Newshunter12 (talk) 08:35, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reaching a certain age is an lifetime accomplishment not 1 event. It is an achievement that takes over 110 years and because it is notable, reliable sources begin covering these people. This is how we determine notability here. In fact there are more billionaires than supercentenarians because to reach such age is more difficult and more notable than earning a billion in net worth. Rarely does NOPAGE applied because most sources do not just state there age, they question their lifestyle to determine how such longevity is achieved. It is only common sense to cover supercentenarians in fact we should have even more articles about them, but this history of deleting supercentenarians has been very destructive to Wikipedia.

  • You must not know what the Chewbacca defense is if you think I am using it. When people reach a certain age reliable sources cover them. On Wikipedia, we are allowed to have articles on people who pass GNG. Having a 3 digit age beginning with 11 does NOT automatically confer notability, but having a 3 digit age beginning with 11 and being covered by multiple reliable secondary sources DOES confer notability. It really is that simple. Valoem talk contrib 10:34, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete – Mr. Kao was a long-lived Chinese catholic priest. A few newspapers wrote about his life, but there is nothing notable in there. Wikipedia is not mandated to collect everything ever printed in a newspaper. The long lists of facts above only serve to obscure the utter lack of notability of this person. Let's talk about my dad instead:
    1. Kao was born in Changle City in Fuzhou, Fujian. My dad was born in a lovely small village of Alsace, then under German military occupation.
    2. His paternal grandfather's elder brother was a Qing dynasty scholar. My dad's great-great-great-grandfather was a local nobleman of Swiss German descent. At least, so they say.
    3. He was a good student in his youth. My dad was an exceptional student, who obtained a state sponsorship to board a prestigious engineering school.
    4. He was baptized at age 18 into the Catholic Church. Everybody was baptized in my dad's village, mostly before their sixth month of life.
    5. In the 22nd year of the Republic of China, he established a primary school in Fuzhou. In 1960, my dad served in the French Air Force.
    6. In the 38th year of the Republic of China, he was sent to Taiwan, where he first preached at Tamsui District. In 1963, my dad was sent to Paris, where he first joined a multinational company.
    7. He established the Our Lady of Fatima Church in Taiwan. My dad created widely-used business software for IBM.
    8. He then moved to Kaohsiung to preach. My dad then moved to the South of France to head the IT department of a subsidiary.
    9. At the beginning os his life, he was a missionary who taught in multiple places. My dad was well-traveled, and drove our family all over Europe.
    10. He then retired to a seminary in Hong Kong. My dad retired as well. Good move.
    11. He has experienced several mishaps. My dad was lucky enough to remain in good health into old age.
    12. When he was 38, he was on a boat that departed from Fujian. The boat turned over. He floated in the sea and was rescued. My dad's son (me) narrowly escaped the third deadliest rail disaster in peacetime France.
    13. At age 68, while he was cleaning a Virgin Mary shrine, he fell and hit his head. My dad feels so sorry for Mr. Kao.
    14. At age 72, he slipped in the restroom and his head hit a gas cylinder. Mr. Kao clearly has a strong head; my dad can't compete.
    15. He had a gallbladder stone at age 80 and wrote a will. His gallbladder removal surgery was successful. My dad had surgery on his optical nerve; the operation did not restore full vision but that was better than losing sight entirely. I am not aware of my dad's will, but who knows, I may be a disavowed legatee…
    16. He placed Virgin Mary shrines in different places including at the Chinese Dominican Sisters nunnery. My dad collected stamps.
    17. His advice to people is "seven nos" and "seven hearts". The seven "nos": "no smoking, no anger, no alcohol, no overeating, constant exercise, constant prayer, no doing rude things". The "seven hearts": "confidence, humility, love, kindness, patience, filial piety, perseverance". My dad has no advice for life. Sad!

  • "A few newspapers wrote about his life, but there is nothing notable in there." – that "a few newspapers wrote about his life" over a sustained period of years means he passes Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". There is no requirement that the biographical information about a subject be notable.

    The quotes you have copied clearly demonstrate that reliable sources have covered Nicholas Kao Se Tseien's career as a priest in detail. The sources discuss how he, a Buddhist's son, became a priest. The sources discuss what he did as a priest: worked at Saint Dominic's Cathedral, Fuzhou, established a primary school in Fuzhou, preached in Taiwan at Tamsui District, established the Our Lady of Fatima Church in Taiwan, and established six shrines in the Virgin Mary's honor (three in Taiwan, one in Fuzhou which Communists demolished, one in Malaysia, and one In Lantau).

    Regarding your dad, if "a few newspapers wrote about his life" over a sustained period of years, he would pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline.

    Cunard (talk) 07:52, 5 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I understand the policy, and I'm sure that if my dad reaches 110, he will get just as much coverage as Mr. Kao. We happen to disagree on whether that makes someone notable enough to deserve a Wikipedia article, my point being that such people would never be covered unless they happened to live longer than most of their fellow humans. We do have articles on notable supercentenarians, the key factor being that their life and deeds were notable independently of their age. — JFG talk 20:38, 5 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that Nicholas Kao Se Tseien never would have been covered if he did not live to 110 years old. But I am basing my "keep" position on Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires only significant coverage in reliable sources. There is no requirement in the guidelines or policies that to pass Wikipedia:Notability, supercentenarians must have lives independently notable of their age even if they have received significant coverage in reliable sources owing to their longevity.

To make "to be notable, a supercentarian must have lives and deeds that were notable independently of their age" a policy-based argument would require an RfC at a venue like Wikipedia:Village pump (policy), like what currently is being done for school inclusion criteria.

A lot of the argument – particulary User: JFG's – ignores the sources, and is in essence a "just" and "mere" mocking of his tremendous achievements, including his longevity. Come back when your father reaches 110, and we will see how much coverage he got. It reminds me of an opinion I encountered in my professional career, "Is mere conviction of a felony reason to remove a sitting judge." Once you use those words, you have poisoned the well, and made the Q.E.D. conclusion inevitable. 7&6=thirteen () 15:52, 5 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It isn't about me. Articles can be improved. But there is a larger supervening agenda. Those who are editing Supercentarian articles should be aware.
Those who close should be aware that saying there is "no consensus" when there clearly was undermines the WP:AFD process. Process and honest results matter.

I only note that other established editors had their votes ignored elsewhere for a lot less. But I know you, and WP:AGF as to your intent. 7&6=thirteen () 19:38, 8 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's clear you won't extend that assumption to me, but I remain just as confused about everything else. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 22:06, 8 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

For the 100th time, WP:Nopage is part of WP:Notability, which has been resolved in the prior AFD. We know what you said; we disagree. 7&6=thirteen () 22:05, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You can't disagree with that which you clearly misunderstand. Regardless of what page NOPAGE is on, it deals with a question completely independent of notability. EEng 23:18, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I can. All you have done is repackaged 'old wine' in 'new bottles.' 7&6=thirteen () 12:00, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
