Non-notable company; fails WP:NCORP.

This article was created by and most contributions are from single-purpose accounts. One of these is clearly the artist herself; I wonder if the others have conflicts of interest. One of them (Harajuku650) dropped the problem tags, though perhaps they felt they had addressed the flagged issues? It still sounds less than neutral. This article was tagged for notability issues, and I'm still unclear on whether it demonstrates notability. One editor also suggested it might be easier to delete and start from scratch than rewrite to eliminate the POV content. -- Beland (talk) 15:07, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is, as a matter of fact, no source to establish claims of significance or notability for the subject of this article. Sources are either primary, are closely related to the subject or are the subject's own opinion. From cursory search, nothing especially different and useful was found. Here lies my concern of critical undisclose paid editing from the author of this article or a close relation at best. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 14:58, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for reviewing the article. I understand your concerns regarding notability and potential conflict of interest. I'll provide additional, independent sources to establish the subject's significance. I declare no conflict of interest or paid editing affiliation with the subject. I'll revise the article to enhance quality and neutrality. Please offer guidance on improving the article.

Doesn't seem to be notable. I'm unable to find any coverage. Fails WP:BIO. --Ratekreel (talk) 13:19, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ratekreel, When you nominated the article, at that time only two references were there in the article. Now number of references are 10+. All references are from national newspapers or books or authenticated government websites. Author have written many books, all can not be listed in the article. Two stories are base for two different bollywood films. Some work by the author is translated in multiple languages by well known authors and translators. Looking at these things, article should not be deleted. There are some research articles which are clearly comparing author's work with Premchand, which is also like an award for Hindi writers. ☆★Sanjeev Kumar (talk) 09:04, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Vishwa Bharti Women's College, Srinagar (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Completely unsourced article about a local "branch" of a "large educational complex" that doesn't have an article about the overarching entity (or at least not at the "Vishwa Bharti Women's Welfare Institution" name indicated by this article; if it does have one at a different name, I don't have the depth of knowledge about India needed to find it). As always, educational institutions are not "inherently" notable just for existing, and have to have GNG-worthy coverage to support an article with -- and if the parent institution isn't notable enough for an article, then a "branch" obviously can't be more notable than its parent entity.

does not clearly demonstrate the company's notability through significant independent sources, which is a key requirement for Wikipedia. Much of the information appears to rely on primary or promotional sources, lacking in-depth third-party coverage that would confirm its broader impact or importance. Additionally, the article may contain promotional language, which violates Wikipedia's guidelines on neutrality RodrigoIPacce (talk) 12:14, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

        The abstract notes: "从苹果公司向专利复审委员会申请无效宣告伊始,'小i机器人'案历经一审、二审,北京市高级人民法院最终撤销一审判决。对于该案中所涉及的专利说明书充分公开标准及该领域技术人员的判断标准也引起了各方关注。该专题以'东方知识产权沙龙第27讲'内容为基础,以公开充分为切入点,对专利文件的体系化理解进行梳理与反思,并围绕技术类案件之特点进行讨论,以期更多人关注专利制度与相关实践"

        From Google Translate: "Since Apple applied to the Patent Reexamination Board for invalidation, the "Xiao-i" case has gone through the first and second trials, and the Beijing High People's Court finally revoked the first-instance judgment. The full disclosure standard of the patent specification involved in this case and the judgment standard of technicians in this field have also attracted attention from all parties. This topic is based on the content of "Lecture 27 of the Oriental Intellectual Property Salon", takes full disclosure as the starting point, sorts out and reflects on the systematic understanding of patent documents, and discusses the characteristics of technical cases, in order to attract more attention to the patent system and related practices."

        The analyst report notes: "As we have noted in the past, Xiao-I has made several attempts to demonstrate the potential of its AI tools by integrating its chatbot technology into everyday products. To date, we have seen these tools deployed for a “smart” baby crib to monitor sleep patterns or a “smart” speaker that could act as a virtual therapist. In our opinion, these products were principally built to demonstrate use cases for the company’s technology, but they did not have broad commercial application and the cost to develop hardware would make them cost-prohibitive for Xiao-I to bring to market."

        The analyst report notes: "Investors may recall that in our initiation report we briefly mentioned that in 2012, the company sued a subsidiary of Apple for patent infringement related to Apple’s Siri tool. Xiao-I alleges that Siri infringes on its intelligent assistant patent. The company updated that lawsuit in 2020 seeking damages in excess of $1.0 billion. We have held the belief that this lawsuit is unlikely to result in a meaningful settlement or win for Xiao-I but given the size of the damages being sought investors should be aware of the suit."

I removed a notability tag because there is a rating from Allmusic. Another editor reverted that because it isn't a review in their view. So, lets settle this. Is this album notable or not? Tag has been on the article since 2012. DonaldD23 talk to me 10:34, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - after a search for the required "multiple, non-trivial, published works", I could find only one borderline source in the LA Weekly, which I added to the article. Everything else I could find were either blog posts or other user-generated content, which also applies to Allmusic. While the band is notable, this particular album is not unless at least one more source can be provided and some sourced detail about reviewer reception can be added to the article. Certainly an Allmusic rating, which is user-generated, is not sufficient to establish notability and shouldn't have been used as an excuse to remove a valid maintenance template.

The subject of this page does not meet notability standards WP:NBIO and WP:GNG or WP:SNG. In addition to that, the citations given are insufficient and do not possess the required quality and reliability. Although she may have won a beauty pageant, it is not a major national fashion or beauty event. Contrasting WP:INHERENT. Also, being married to a businessman who has a wikipedia page of his own does not automatically establish notability by association WP:INHERITED.

Channel with 99% reruns of older series, their programming lacks notability. Fram (talk) 07:56, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep or delete other articles First, note on the reason this article was created. The material in this article was transferred from MeTV Toons, which made the article as noted "too long to comfortably read the main article". This article/list is not any different from others on Wikipedia. It contains references provided by other editors for verification. This article is directly the same as others under the category: Lists_of_television_series_by_network. Please visit this category to confirm. If we limit articles/lists to original programming and not list rerun programs, we will need to delete a lot of articles/lists such as ION or Antenna TV for example. Thus, what do we consider as "notable"?. This is not the only channel that is currently listed on Wikipedia as per quote "Channel with 99% reruns of older series, their programming lacks notability."

    • Comment As someone mentioned above, where does it say a list qualifies as notable when it only lists original programs specifically? I can see the concern over a list, especially not referenced. I did not create this list, just moved it out of the main article, which was becoming too long with this list included. The lists such as List of programs broadcast by Antenna TV and others have been on Wikipedia for over a decade with no issues at this point. Just mentioning....

Fails WP:NEVENT, no continued coverage, all coverage dates to the week (mostly just the day, it fell off incredibly fast) this happened, fails WP:LASTING extremely and the coverage is not analytical or in depth enough to compensate. A lot of tragic things happen in Haiti. Most do not get continued coverage. Death toll is not notability. PARAKANYAA (talk) 07:22, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thudinspecies (talk) 09:51, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How do you know that it will? I edit in this field constantly, you tend to get a feel for what will and won't, and in some countries they just never do. I really doubt this will sustain lasting coverage, considering how quickly it dropped off the news. There are too many incredibly high death toll tragedies in Haiti. Much less an academic publication. I have read about terrorist attacks that killed 100 people that did not sustain lasting coverage (for clarity, not in Haiti, but in another country that has constant high death toll incidents)
It received an incredibly short burst of coverage, with no continuing impact, not "absolutely massive" by any means. That is not notability. This doesn't meet the GNG because all sources are WP:PRIMARYNEWS, so none actually count for notability when it comes to the GNG. A sign to wait would be if any of this coverage was analytical at all, but it isn't, it's just "thing happened" and then everyone moved on the next day because Haiti has massacres and tragedies with a regularity none of its neighbors do.
The article does not pass the GNG, as the GNG requires secondary sources, and every source here is primary. It also does not pass any bit of WP:NEVENT. PARAKANYAA (talk) 10:38, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  3. About a protest song, doesn't specifically mention the subject as far as I can tell English
  4. What appears to be a film review, doesn't mention the subject as far as I can tell English
  5. What appears to be a promotional bio of a different individual - English

Still not seeing anything that would demonstrate SIGCOV.-KH-1 (talk) 05:11, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I appreciate your feadback however:
  1. It is not a promotional website, there is not a part of website stating user can create a profile or bio. the National Diversity Awards website is not a promotional platform where individuals can create their own profiles. It is a curated, third-party site that publishes detailed nomination profiles for individuals recognized for their achievements. Wikipedia's notability guidelines for biographies of living persons, such as WP (General Notability Guideline), accept third-party recognition and profiles published on award platforms as potential sources. This source provides coverage that is independent and detailed enough to establish some notability.
  2. The February issue of Moscow Tonight, available on MagCloud, includes four dedicated pages about the subject. This source should meet WP guidelines, as it provides detailed coverage on the individual. The fact that the magazine is behind a paywall does not negate its validity as a source, especially since Wikipedia encourages the use of reliable sources regardless of paywalls (WP). To address your concern about access, I am happy to provide additional details if needed."
  3. I understand there may have been a translation challenge here, as the article on BBC 'Persian' references the individual within the broader context of cultural movements. The piece mentions notable figures, including the subject, associated with influential trends in this movement. BBC Persian is a reputable source, and while the English translation may lack some nuance, the article reflects the subject’s role within a culturally significant narrative, which aligns with WP when viewed as part of their broader impact. I’m happy to clarify any specific details from the source in the original Persian to ensure accurate representation. This source, while not comprehensive on its own, does contribute valuable context alongside other supporting sources that I am preparing to further substantiate the article.
  4. Mashregh News Article on a Protest Song (Bella Ciao and artists who sang) : While this article is not just a film review and may not solely focus on the subject, it is worth noting that WP allows for multiple sources that contribute to notability as a collective rather than needing to be individually comprehensive. This piece references the subject within a context that showcases their influence and relevance, particularly within cultural discussions, which contributes to notability even if indirectly.
  5. Roozaneh.net Biography (Appears to Be a Different Individual): I understand the concern here. It seems this website might be confusing in English translation but i have added this as there is a connection to related page as in the article it was mention of music collaboration and some refers. I am willing to remove it from consideration and focus on sources directly pertinent to the subject. My apologies for any confusion here.

Since I nominated List of antisemitic incidents in the United States I should nominate this too, since it has the exact same problems.

Extremely, extremely broad and vague scope, with barely any quality control. Making this list anywhere close to comprehensive coverage of its baffling scope would be impossible, and would mostly contain low level news stories (as it does). If this was going to be a selection of notable pages (and changing it to that would require deleting 99% of the list) maybe, but the problem is in the title still: "Incident". Incident is so broad as to be useless, it can be anywhere from a terrorist attack to someone calling someone a mean word on the bus, this is a completely un manageable scope. Anti-Muslim terror acts or hate crimes targeted at mosques would likely meet NLIST, and if there is consensus to rescope to that we can, but that would also require nuking most of the page. Also, weasel words: "could be considered Islamophobic"? What? Also has WP:BLPCRIME concerns in that it accuses people of crimes without convictions. It also has WP:NOTNEWS issues, which is not inherently a problem for a list, but is a problem when it's based on an inherently POV and negative concept and one with a scope as vague and with as many possible entries as "incident" PARAKANYAA (talk) 04:16, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mayors are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to be shown to have a significant volume and depth of WP:GNG-worthy reliable source coverage enabling us to write a substantial article about their political impact.

  • Strong Keep This article is very important, or to phrase it another way, no less important than many many others. Who are we to culturally filter what is kept? The number of actors/writers articles I pass by here who clearly curate their own pages, running them as C.Vs, and they all stay because they find some NYT books section reference to stave off deletion. This guy? He gets binned? Michael, his response to wealth, and the infamy it generated at the time in newspapers, is significant in U.K. early 2000s culture. It remaining is important in evidencing the wider implications for how money, culture, and class influence society. Wikipedia is damaged by loss of articles like these, and all the more so because people with poor socio-economic positions are simply pushed out of existence (literally, here), while those with means remain (and thus dominate).

Keep There is a lot of tabloidy coverage, but there is also stuff that is not tabloid at all. The fascination with him went beyond the surface level, and he does clearly meet WP:BASIC PARAKANYAA (talk) 21:37, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, he became one of the most prominent type-specimens of what can go wrong when someone wins the lottery and is unable to derive any lasting benefit from the event (https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/may/19/curse-of-the-lottery-what-happened-next-to-four-winners). It wasn't just a brief flash of tabloid scandal, or even just sustained tabloid Schadenfreude; the coverage is across a broad spectrum of press, and connected to the social phenomenon of the lottery and what it does to lives. I appreciate the OP's concern about our reflecting tabloid muck-slinging; nevertheless, I think we need to keep the article, because we can at least summarise the entire coverage in a balanced way, which serves our readers (and Carroll) better than they'll get from a crude Google search.

2022 Pittsburgh shooting (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I have been unable to find sustained and persistent coverage of this shooting and I believe that it does not meet the crime notability guideline. The shooting occurred on April 17, 2022, and all but three sources that I have been able to find were published from April 17–19, 2022. First, an academic article published November 11, 2022, has a paragraph about the shooting claiming that it "gained wide public attention, commentary, and condemnation", but it only cites to an April 17, 2022 article in People. Then, on November 17, 2022, WTAE-TV aired a story on a lawsuit that was filed regarding the shooting. Finally, in April 2023, WTAE ran a routine one-year follow-up piece. voorts (talk/contributions) 03:01, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't call the follow up piece routine (and I think that word is overused) but it is excessively local and by itself not enough. PARAKANYAA (talk) 03:18, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
this piece from earlier this year, which goes into its impact on airbnb, the law it inspired and the ongoing legal battle. I think this is pretty decent with respect to showing notability.

Coverage is, to my taste, excessively local, but Pittsburgh is the second largest city in a large state so... eh. More importantly is that the later coverage is analytical with respect to the shooting's relationship with Airbnb. Not sure if it's enough, so not yet going to vote either way. This did result in a law change (as the first piece shows). Maybe merge somewhere, but can't think of a target. PARAKANYAA (talk) 03:27, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is no assertion of notability and while I do not read Russian, Google Translate accesses it with some ease and I'm unable to find N:ORG level coverage. I do not think a redirect to or merge with Gymnazium Union of Russia is viable as I'm not sure that would survive AfD either although the name makes a BEFORE more challenging.

Fails WP:GNG and cannot be considered for WP: CREATIVE for Journalists. It seems all the articles published for the subject were put together as sources on his Wikipedia page.
