I am unable to find any independent coverage of this BLP. The 15 sources cited in the article are author listings, biography listings, interviews, articles written by the subject, alumni listings, coverage from events, seminars, conferences, summits and more interviews. It is unclear what makes the subject notable or what their contributions are which could be used to assess whether any SNG is met. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 14:57, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP of a diplomat, not properly sourced as passing inclusion criteria for diplomats. As always, diplomats are not "inherently" notable enough for Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and have to show that they would pass WP:GNG on third-party coverage and analysis about their work in media and books. But this is "referenced" solely to a staff profile on the self-published website of a publication that the subject was the bylined author (not the subject) of a couple of pieces of writing for and a brief glancing namecheck of her existence in a short blurb announcing the appointment of 16 new ambassadors -- meaning that the first is a directly affiliate primary source that isn't support for notability at all, while the second isn't detailed enough to get her over WP:GNG all by itself if it's all the secondary sourcing she's got: we need to see substantive coverage about her work in diplomatic roles, not just cursory verification of the fact that she's been appointed to them.

Article about a school, not properly referenced as passing WP:NSCHOOL. As always, schools are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and have to pass WP:ORG and WP:GNG on their sourceability -- but this is "referenced" solely to the school's own self-published website about itself, with absolutely no GNG-worthy coverage about it in independent third-party sources (media, books, etc.) shown at all.

Keep - I'm not aware of much continued coverage so far (it's still early), but that isn't strictly required, and the initial coverage was quite extensive, easily meeting WP:N(E)'s standard of very likely to be notable if they have widespread (national or international) impact and were very widely covered in diverse sources. There are far too many RS to list, probably 100+. Just to mention some of the largest: BBC, NBC, CBS, Reuters, Al Jazeera, NPR. The article needs work but there's ample source material. — xDanielx T/C\R 06:08, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
XDanielx, your quoted standard refers to national or international impact, but I'm not sure any of your linked sources go over that in any detail? Can you clarify what you believe the lasting effects are? Alpha3031 (tc) 12:36, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alpha3031: I was thinking of the human toll (a death and 30-40 injuries), but on second thought maybe impact is a gray area. I think ultimately since WP:N(E) has no hard requirements, we have to consider multiple factors, but the WP:DIVERSE factor certainly supports inclusion. I also just feel that when coverage is so extensive, the WP:GNG presumption should carry weight, leading us to default to inclusion unless there's a particularly strong argument for why it would fail WP:N(E). — xDanielx T/C\R 17:14, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
While they may be WP:DIVERSE sources, no sources extend past a few days after the event. This attack has no WP:LASTING impact and no WP:SUSTAINED coverage. And while I understand that I should WP:FOC with this, I think it's important to note that the article creator wrote the page while the news was still WP:BREAKING, and has been PBlocked for these creations, something which should be relevant here as the article was created regardless of the event's impact. EF5 17:23, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Setting aside the burst of coverage immediately after (the guideline's language), there was still significant coverage days after the event, like [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]. Most of that was 2-3 days after, though the last was Dec 2.
I wouldn't say WP:PERSISTENCE particularly favors inclusion, but this doesn't exactly fail the standard either. In any case it's only one factor, not a requirement, while other factors like WP:DIVERSE favor inclusion.
I don't think the author's motivations should be considered, particularly since that was a while ago and this already survived one AfD. — xDanielx T/C\R 18:01, 12 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@190.219.101.225: Can I get a few examples of significant and lasting coverage, and that this event had long-lasting, if any, impacts on Israeli society? EF5 16:51, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll ask this again, where is the significant coverage here? I see 5 sources, all of which were published right after the attack. EF5 22:46, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sources don't need to be in the current article to contribute to notability though. I listed more above, including 7 which were not immediately after the attack. Would you be convinced by a much longer list (including ones immediately after)? I'm happy to compile one if it would be useful. — xDanielx T/C\R 04:22, 21 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete all the coverage provided is run of the fill news reports. No secondary sources have been identified. Traumnovelle (talk) 04:23, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Could you elaborate further? News reports are normally secondary sources (unless the topic is the news org or what not). Are you saying you'd like to see non-news sources like books or papers? It seems too early for that. — xDanielx T/C\R 16:16, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Baker actually describes this as a post office spot which moved, which is a classic 4th class PO thing. No, it doesn't mean that everyone pulled up stakes and moved; it just means that the original postmaster stopped handling the mail, and someone somewhere else took over.

The Wikipedia page for IIMUN (India's International Movement to Unite Nations) does not meet Wikipedia's notability criteria as outlined in the General Notability Guidelines (GNG). While the organization claims widespread activity and recognition, the sources cited are primarily self-published or lack significant, reliable secondary coverage in independent publications. The majority of the references either originate from IIMUN itself, social media posts, or promotional material, which are insufficient to establish notability. Furthermore, the achievements mentioned, such as organizing large-scale conferences and initiatives like "Find a Bed," fail to receive substantial and consistent coverage from reputable third-party sources over a significant period. Without verifiable, independent, and non-trivial coverage, the subject cannot be deemed notable under Wikipedia's policies. Therefore, the article does not merit inclusion and should be considered for deletion. Likehumansdo (talk) 09:29, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's unclear to me why this man's fraud conviction makes him notable. There were many people who committed PPP fraud and while large, his is not the largest or most well reported. I see a smattering of reporting, of the routine kind of reporting you usually see that is rewritten SEC or DOJ press releases.

Furthermore, I don't see how he is notable for his finance activities prior to his conviction.

This article seems to promote the man in a strange kind of way.

Not notable. Only notable thing on the article to me was "world's first hotel residences offered for sale by the government of the Maldives." which is far-fetched to me. Unilandofma(Talk to me!) 04:49, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Unsure - on the one hand, I don't like the title or the unencyclopedic tone WP:NOTESSAY of the writing. On the other hand, this does appear to be a Thing. It might be a challenge to find notable sources, but it does depend if we collectively think it is worth doing here or better to WP:TNT and get whoever recreates it to ensure there is proper sourcing. I'm doubting it is really possible for anyone outside of the Maldives to offer sources that meet the WP:GNG. JMWt (talk) 10:32, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. As you say, it does seem to be a Thing, and thus notable. As a comment, it used to be very common in the UK for house names to be the only addresses on envelopes. For example, my grandmother's address used to be just Catalone, Newton Abbot, South Devon. However, for obvious reasons the Post Office tried to eradicate this approach to addresses, and it has largely disappeared, except for people who live in castles or palaces. I expect the same practice existed in other countries, and probably still does in some. Athel cb (talk) 14:40, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

NEW NOMINATIONS

[edit]

Category:Brazilian people of African descent by ethnicity

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Unnecessary level of intermediate categorization between Category:Brazilian people of African descent and just two subcategories for African ethnic groups. Both of the two subcategories here are already in Category:Brazilian people of Nigerian descent, meaning they're already appropriately subcategorized within that parent and thus need neither this nor upmerging to the parent. (One of the two subcategories, Category:Brazilian people of Igbo descent, also only has one person in it, and thus may not even be warranted at all if it can't be made more populated than it is. However, I'm just raising it for review, rather than nominating it for deletion here and now, as I don't know whether getting more articles into it is actually possible or not — but I will say that the fact that it's linking an Igbo Brazilians article that doesn't even exist at all as its purported "main article" head isn't promising.) Bearcat (talk) 14:47, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Social media influencers

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: merge, not a clear distinction between the two categories. This is follow-up on this discussion which is still open. Marcocapelle (talk) 11:31, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oppose merge, and oppose deletion. Thanks for the ping. Note the first sentence in the Influencer article states, An influencer, also referred to as an online influencer and social media influencer, is a term traditionally associated with someone who is considered influential., while the first sentence in the Internet celebrity article states, An internet celebrity, also referred to as an internet personality, is an individual who has acquired or developed their fame and notability on the Internet. The point here is that not all influencers are celebrities, e.g., LinkedIn influencers, etc. That said, if you haven't already, please ping and invite the folks at Wikipedia:WikiProject Internet culture to be part of the discussion on this topic as they're the gurus... allowing enough time after the holidays for a response. Thanks. --Rosiestep (talk) 13:21, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:People from Doubravice nad Svitavou

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Category with just one entry. Lost in Quebec (talk) 10:07, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2100s and 2110s

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: merge, redundant category layer with only one subcategory each. Merging isn't needed, the subcategories are kept in the decade tree anyway. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:54, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Deaths from cerebrovascular disease

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: containerize, the articles directly in this category are usually about people who died by stroke, which is a far too common cause of death to categorize by. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:31, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Leftover mosques categories

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Follow-up to Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2024 December 12#Mosques 1200-1900; three single-member categories which were inadvertently excluded from the list. BlasterOfHouses (HouseBlaster's alt • talk • he/they) 06:43, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Cestidae

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Cestida is a monotypic order, containing only the family Cestidae. jlwoodwa (talk) 02:35, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Deceased Everest summiters

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: Selective merge. These are just summiters who are now deceased. For example, Rick Allen (mountaineer) died on K2. Gary Ball died on Dhaulagiri. SMasonGarrison 01:52, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Deaths on Scottish mountains

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: From looking at the deaths, these are all Mountaineering deaths. Sibling is Category:Mountaineering deaths in Nepal. This is boardline CDC SMasonGarrison 01:47, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kitty cat

[edit]

Possible WP:XY scenario here as Kitten could also be a plausible target. (In fact, Kitten actually was the target for 4 years between 2013-2017) User:Someone-123-321 (I contribute, Talk page so SineBot will shut up) 08:30, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

GX9

[edit]

There's a camera model called the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX9 which is commonly called the GX9 for short, and if I google "GX9", the majority of the search results on the front page are for the camera model and not the music group (which has been disbanded since several years ago). Now I'm just not sure whether to turn GX9 (all upper-caps) into a disambiguation page or to retarget it to the camera model. — AP 499D25 (talk) 07:47, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Six-a-side cricket

[edit]

Hong Kong Cricket Sixes isn't the only tournament in this format, for example SEA Games also had the six-a-side format. Must be retargeted to a neutral target such as Short form cricket. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 05:45, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mayflower wedge

Phrase not mentioned in target. Quick google suggests that this is most commonly a type of shoe; I was only able to find one source referring to the tornado this way. Rusalkii (talk) 04:28, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep (as redirect creator) - National Weather Service calls it a "wedge tornado". I've added it to the article. EF5 14:36, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Olive Delights

[edit]

Meme referencing the sound of "All of the Lights", not mentioned in target and a quick google suggests it's sometimes used to refer to a food. Rusalkii (talk) 04:10, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Meat and potatoes

[edit]

This is currently a soft redirect to Wiktionary, which discusses this solely as an idiom. However, this is also a culinary term referring to a class of dishes (see Category:Meat and potatoes dishes, so I don't think the Wiktionary entry covers all of what would be needed here.
