- BrandSafway (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs|google) AfD discussion
Seems like it may be a notable company ("workforce of approximately 32,000 employees and a network of more than 350 strategic locations across 30 countries. BrandSafway is headquartered in Kennesaw, Georgia."). Unfortunately some editors have erased the whole article. Some question about COI has been raised at the AfD.

- List of fires and impacts of the 2019-20 Australian bushfire season (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs|google) AfD discussion
Anyone know of a government website or elsewhere that keeps track of information? Or just feel like picking one thing at random and searching Google news for "Australian" "bushfire" and one of the locations listed? Dream Focus 23:30, 25 January 2020 (UTC)
- This is not being nominated for deletion because the subject is not encyclopedic or because it has insufficient reference, but because the list is a hot mess that's presented in an unencyclopedic way (it's mainly just a list of bushfire complex names used internally by firefighting services that are essentially meaningless to the public, some of which are duplicates as fires have merged, and which are difficult to verify because of said limited use). It's only here because Dream Focus won't read the deletion nomination before having opinions. No one is opposed to having an article on the impact of the fires, but that is not this article in its current framing. The Drover's Wife (talk) 23:46, 25 January 2020 (UTC)
- I read your reasons for nominating it for deletion. If you don't like how the information is presented, then that's not a valid reason for deletion, just find references to confirm the information and add additional useful information to it. Dream Focus 00:27, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- It isn't just how the information is presented, it's how the entire article is framed: it's not just a matter of "finding references" when the entire point of the list is listing internal firefighting service names for individual bits of fire complexes in the broader notable blazes that aren't in common use - it's by definition unverifiable and inherently always going to be a bit of a mess. This is not a case of people not wanting more information on the impact of the bushfires. The Drover's Wife (talk) 01:55, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
internal firefighting service names for individual bits of fire complexes in the broader notable blazes that aren't in common use
- sorry but I can advise that that is not correct. The names are used by very publicly as part of all official formal emergency information broadcasts critical to public safety, and at times are also referred to in general media publications. They are NOT just identifiers internal to fire fighting services. Aoziwe (talk) 11:24, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Chairing Cross, Arizona, Arizona First multiple town nomination for deletion. Was a Speedy Keep, nomination withdrawn. I don't know why they didn't include them all. What they have done is repackaged their effort: 'Old wine in new bottles.' No longer being sold by the case.[1]

- FWIW, this looks to be merged. Interesting discussion about the merits of that, IMO. Nevertheless and still, these articles could both use improvement. 7&6=thirteen (☎)

- GRuban makes some good points as to why they should be kept separate.
- I only deferred based on the relative number of page views, which overwhelmingly favored the series (18K) vs. Dr. Pol (3). Although Dr. Pol's page was not (until a couple of days ago) even mentioned in the series page. Page views went through a big peak around New Year's Day, as there was a marathon of The Incredible Dr. Pol episodes on the National Geographic channel. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 15:03, 8 January 2020 (UTC)

Lake. Question of notability. WP:Before? WP:Hey now? 7&6=thirteen (☎) 04:56, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Per the closer: "The result was keep. This discussion has been open for over a month now, has been well-attended, and so it's time to stick a fork in it and say that it's done. The facts of the matter seem fairly clear and the issues have been well aired. There are 28 !votes and it is clear that there is no consensus to delete the page in question as there are only 2 !votes for that outcome and they don't seem especially strong. The other !votes are split fairly evenly: 14 to keep and 12 to redirect/merge. As the keep !voters have a slight majority and still seem to be digging up more sources, the status quo should remain so that they may work in peace without fear of disruption. The redirect/merge camp can also work on the list entry which they prefer and, if they remain dissatisfied with the overall situation, they have the option to revisit the issue after some time has elapsed. Any future discussions would be best done using the WP:MERGE process as the discussion indicates that deletion is quite unlikely. (non-admin closure)" 7&6=thirteen (☎) 11:17, 8 January 2020 (UTC)

Here are the Delete !vote rationales. It seems only two actually gave a reasonable guideline based rationale.
- Delete per nom
- Delete a non-notable model
- Delete – doesn't meet GNG; even with the new sources recently added to the article, none meet GNG. (the only !vote that went one to discuss the !votes was Levivich)
- Delete. with only the editor's signature
- delete the keep arguments are mostly bullshit and should be ignored
- Delete Medium is a blog site, not a publication with editorial control, and is patently unreliable. (dismissed based on one source)
Many are WP:JUSTAVOTE Lightburst (talk) 17:59, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
- Playboy (and other covers like FHM) cover model - she also was named a Playboy International Model. The nominator stripped 5 of the 7 references out of the article and then nominated the article for deletion. Perhaps we can add RS which the nominator can agree not to delete, and then we can perhaps save our Sunshine. She must pass WP:NMODEL or WP:GNG. Lightburst (talk) 18:48, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

I am inclined to take J Milburn (talk · contribs)'s word that the sources he apparently has access to provide significant coverage of this topic, but the article as we have it now is nothing but in-universe plot content. I would rather not go further down the Buffyverse rabbit hole than I already have (I watched the show occasionally when I was a kid, but the way it was frequently shown on British and Irish television -- often out of sequence -- prevented me from really getting into it), but I'd be happy to change my !vote if anyone can fix the article in the meantime.

- Mountain Dog (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs|google) AfD discussion
There was an o'er hasty merger of the latter article into the former. They posted it on one page and left the other off. As the creator of the latter article, I would have thought somebody would have notified me. But merger discussions are subject to abuse and quiet rigging of the process. The merger discussions are NOW ongoing at Talk:Livestock guardian dog#Merger proposal and Talk:Mountain dog#Merger proposal. I wrote the latter article many years ago, and it needs additional sources, particularly ones that use the phrase "mountain dog." The breeds that are listed on these two pages do not completely overlap. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 21:17, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
- The first dog on the mountain dog article I searched for with the name "mountain dog" showed me this: https://www.101dogbreeds.com/carpathian-sheepdog-carpathian-shepherd-dog.asp Its apparently there is a group of dogs called mountain dogs. Does anyone have any textbooks or encyclopedias about dogs that mention the breeds? Is this the official name for them? List of dog breeds only list four dogs with "mountain dog" in their name.

- And of course, there are the 46 articles/dog breeds (only one doesn't have its own article) already listed at Mountain dog. If you go to the individual breed articles, there are lots of sources.
- The Cão de Castro Laboreiro is not mentioned in any of these (yet) but has a "preferred mountain colour."

- The New York Times gave him ample coverage. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/08/arts/orson-bean-dead.html Someone seems to have tagged a lot of pointless "citation needed" tags all over the place. No actor needs a reference for every single film or show they have been in. They are in the credits. Dream Focus 23:50, 9 February 2020 (UTC)
- They removed a source which they 'deemed' unreliable, then spray-painted "citation needed" everywhere. There are actually sources already in the article that could be used to amplify the article and the citations.
- The "debate" at ITN was galling. One road block after another. And when the objections were cleared away, there were more. But it was POSTED briefly.
- But the mob at ITN was in no mood to entertain that.
- Then it was UNPOSTED.
- I would could (and maybe should) have done more. But this is rather like touching the hot wire of a sparkler ("don't touch the wire – it's hot and you WILL get burned." – as ever parent has warned).
