Contested PROD. When I saw this article, I thought that it should meet the notability criteria, but I can't find significant coverage at reliable sources which are independent of the subject. All the coverage I could find is minor mentions. The editor who contested the PROD contended that "minor mentions" are better than none - however, the notability criteria specifically requires significant coverage in multiple reliable independent sources, which this article does not meet.

- The first two citations would appear to be about re-enactment societies in general, not the ECWS in particular - although I will concede that I have not had the chance to obtain copies of them (it's currently 05:00 in the UK, the libraries I have access to are shut!). I am willing to alter this assessment if someone would provide the precise quotes from the two book here to show that there is significant coverage of the ECWS in those two sources. The other three are all on the organisation's own website, and so not independent sources. For such an esteemed/important group, I'd expect there to be lots of press coverage of them, with information about their history etc. It was founded in 1980, so they have been active during the Internet era, so where are the sources?

Contested PROD. Even though I thought that this should meet the notability criteria (it's an organisation that I have heard of), I can't find coverage at reliable sources which are independent of the subject. Despite the claims of the editor who contested the PROD, this is not a "ludicrous" nomination - I have looked but was unable to find significant coverage at multiple reliable independent sources, and at the moment the references in the article are the organisation's own website (so not independent) and the other is not indepth coverage of the organisation - and in any case, is not 'multiple sources'. PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 22:31, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- keep (see other bulk AfDs by this editor). The Sealed Knot pretty much established re-enactment in the UK, something like 40 years ago. Although there are now many other groups too (and this editor has PRODed or AfDed most of them today) the Sealed Knot are still the best known by name. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:21, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep As the nominator says, this is a well-known organisation. I've added a reference to the article itself from a book with a sub-chapter entitled "Combat re-enactment: WARS and The Sealed Knot". And if one looks to a search on say The Guardian, one can see from the returns the extent to which Sealed Knot is a matter of common reference. AllyD (talk) 23:31, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

- Keep Whatever I personally think of the pornbio standards, they have the support of the community, and the article clearly meets them.

DGG ( talk ) 20:20, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
- Reply. I cannot speak on behalf of anyone else, but I did read the pornbio standards, before voting to delete. I've also read the introductory bit at the top of the WP:BIO page where it says: "People are likely to be notable if they meet any of the following standards. Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included." I looked at the evidence offered in the article and from my own searches and concluded that, on balance, this subject is not sufficiently notable to warrant an encyclopedia entry. For what it's worth, I do believe that there are plenty of porn stars who do belong in WP. This person is not one of them. If my vote and comments are not merely disagreeable to you, but also unintelligent, well, I do apologize. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 05:26, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
- I think DGG was mainly referring to Cox wasan and to the nom. It is legitimate to think that a subject isn't sufficiently notable to be in WP, despite like in this case he/she passes SNG-criteria and has some (sporadic) secondary coverage. I consider that as WP:IDONTLIKE, but your comment correctly explained this POV. It is "unintelligent" saying, as the nom says, that a subject fails pornbio as "she appears to only have been nominated for awards and never winning any", it demonstrate he has not read PORNBIO. And it is even more "unintelligent", after three users noticed how the subject effectively passes this SNG, saying "Fails GNG and PORNBIO" without any reason, explanation or comment given.--Cavarrone (talk) 10:08, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
- yes, I apologize for my wording, because I was chiefly thinking on the nom. DGG ( talk ) 03:44, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

Contested PROD. This organisation does not seem to meet the notability criteria, I can't find coverage at reliable sources which are independent of the subject. The coverage in the New Statesman referred to in the article (which I had high hopes for when I saw it on the references list) does not even name the group, merely discussing a group of beardy-weirdy Anglo-Saxon nuts, which is presumably referring to this group?
The editor who contested the PROD said in the edit summary that the prod appears to be solely on the basis of the editor's dislike of "beardy weirdies". One would think that when re-enactment culminates in building an entire village and a fleet of ships, it is notable - to which I would like to make two comments:
- I didn't use the phrase about "beardy weirdies" - the New Statesmen did. That is their reporter's thoughts, not my own. Again, the group is not named, so how can we verify that this organisation is that group?
- If significant coverage of the group, including building a village and shops, can be found at reliable sources which are independent of the group, I would not have nominated this for deletion - however, I couldn't find any, and the New Statesman article is not sufficient for that purpose, as although it is reliable and independent, it does not name the group.
As such, I do not see that they meet the notability criteria, which requires verifiability and sourcing. PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 21:48, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep and admonish or block editor for WP:POINT.
- This is one of a series of scatter-gun PRODs by this editor against UK-based historical re-enactment groups. A prod that describes the article subject as "beardy weirdies", even when choosing which cite to quote, is rarely the sign of a balanced judgement of notability. Whilst not claiming that all are notable, I'm particularly concerned by the editor's total disregard for both WP:BEFORE and for the workload of other editors. When they can use phrases like, "though I thought that this should meet the notability criteria (it's an organisation that I have heard of), I can't find coverage at reliable sources which are independent of the subject." then they show an utter lack of respect for other editors. Who do they think adds such references? The reference pixies? No, it's other editors who they've now cheerfully dumped this extra and immediate workload onto, and a small group of specialist interest editors who've now been told to expand refs on _every_ article at once or see them deleted. This editor has even nom'ed The Sealed Knot for AfD, a group that has not only been around for about 40 years, but pretty much established mass re-enactment in the UK. Of course any editor is entitled to nominate articles for deletion, or to point out their lack of references (although to do this whilst quoting the New Statesman's own references is chutzpah!). Yet doing this en masse, with such disregard for bothering to do any of the incumbent legwork themself, is not the action of an editor who believes in collegiate editing, or who has an evident interest in improving the encyclopedia. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:19, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- a) assume good faith b) once I saw that this had been prodded, I went on a internet trawl for news articles on the group - expecting it would be the quickest way to source the groups existence and high profile - I found one. I found lots of renactment websites referring to it but they didn't strike me as independent or reliable. GraemeLeggett (talk) 07:14, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
- Perhaps you were just looking in the current news, not the archives. See the news link above for The historical reenactor in The Guardian, for example. Warden (talk) 07:31, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
- "AGF is not a suicide pact" These prods & AfDs represent sheer laziness on the part of the nominator - particularly an acceptance that they're probably a bad nom, but that the nominator is still happy to deliberately ignore WP:BEFORE in favour of dumping that workload onto others. AfD isn't saying that the refs need improvement, it's claiming that there is no adequate coverage of a topic whatsoever. I don't believe the nominator believes this, so why are they even raising it here, if not to strong-arm other editors into having to do immediate cleanup work, or lose articles? That is not a GF action.
- As to the notability of Regia, then they're pretty much the "go to guys" for rent-a-viking on UK TV for the last few years. If you see a beardy weirdie with a seax, or a longboat, chances are that they're Regia people. Coast has certainly used them, I think Time Team too. They're even covered in the pages of Stationary Engine Magazine. If you don't like older sources, here's one from the Grauniad just a couple of months ago .

Recent documentary film. No attempt made to show notability. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:27, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Comment I wrote a short squib less than 24 hours, and have seen it PRODed twice in that time, second time by the nominator. I don't know if the number of Google hits speaks to likely notability, but I get over a million. (though I don't know how to avoid repetition.) It is possible that this article needs a better author rather than deletion. I'm not arguing for a keep, but for the subject to be considered before a decision is made to delete.

- Keep as User:Clarityfiend has easily established that this film meets notability criteria. I sympathyze with its author User:Jd2718 and suggest that in the future he consider beginning articles in a user workspace and so avoid them being negatively evaluated when in their infant stages. Had it looked as it does now I seriously doubt that User:Jsfouche or User:RHaworth would have suggested its removal. Kudos to Clarityfiend for his improvments. Well done. I suggest that now that concerns have been addressed, the nom consider a withdrawal of his nomination. Schmidt, 01:50, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep - seems to meet WP:GNG as there is significant coverage in reliable sources which were not evident when the article was created (even though it may not meet WP:NFILM).

Article about a living person that does not have any independent, published sources. Clearly fails WP:BLP and the claim to notability is thin, so fails WP:BIO too. Prod was contested under the claim of adding references, but these just repeated the existing unreliable sources - they are unreliable as they are clearly not independent of the subject.

I do not think this quite meets the notability criteria, I can't find coverage at reliable sources which are independent of the subject apart from that provided in the article, most of which would not meet the requirement for significant coverage.

- Strong keep. There are hundreds of - if not more - reliable sources at this point. These articles provide some of the best coverage around of a particularly significant and complex case, due to an enormous amount of work; work and coverage that would be lost should they be merged. I think it's a bit of a dick move to nominate nine Good Articles for deletion citing all of one shortcut as justification. Rebecca (talk) 17:55, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep all - Merging the articles would make Bali Nine (48 kB) an unwieldy size; these articles are a justified WP:SIZESPLIT and have no significant verifiability issues. Dl2000 (talk) 19:09, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Redirect all. I do not believe that the size of the main article would be unwieldy if the unique details of each individual were merged. As is, there is a large amount of duplicate information in each of the articles about the individuals. For example, the section entitled "Criticisms of Australian Federal Police tipoff" does not need to be duplicated in every article nor do the quotes in the "Sentencing and appeal" section. These things bloat the articles and give the impression that there is more to say about the individuals than there really is. Location (talk) 19:48, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep all Coverage in RS is plentiful, to the extent of establishing individual notability. Alessandra Napolitano (talk) 19:56, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Delete all. WP:PERP applies and the exclusions listed in it do not. This is a one event and the individual criminals are not notable in themselves. QU 20:17, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep all. There has been a massive amount of attention given to these people in the press, not just about their crime, but about all the appeals and their life in the Bali prison. They are not "notable only for ... committing a crime or crimes" They clearly meet the notability guidelines. Each article is quite large and quite well written. Is wikipedia improved by deleting them at this time? No. --Bduke (Discussion) 21:10, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep all per Dl2000 and Bduke. The deletion or merging of these article would be a negative for the encyclopedia – either the Bali Nine article would become far too bloated or we would lose useful information (as has been noted above, all articles are well sourced and well written and they are all either GAs or at GAN). Jenks24 (talk) 03:48, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep all I am a significant contirbutor to articles on each of the Bali Nine and on that page itself. I have done a fair amount of ref sourcing and nominated them for GA/GAN. I don't hold a bias and am interested in the outcome, whatever is decided. I started contributing in mid-2011 following the dismissal of Chan's appeal against his sentence. My contributions were based on a number of key issues:
- The aritcles as they stand now were not as they stood in mid-June 2011, for example, Rush and Lawrence were full of content, garnered in part through their media exposure and the approach/profile of thier family. This compared with Czugaj and Chen who had only a few lines written about them each.
- Chan had much content than Sukumaran. I started to ask myself why.
- Some artcles had details of their past criminal backgrounds, others not. I adopted an approach that this was pertinent information, whilst in the public domain and should apply to all, and not just one or two.
- There were differences to each case, their motivations for being involved, how they conducted themselves during the arrest and criminal proceedings, and following sentencing. I felt that these nuances would be lost in the main article.
- I tried to ensure that the individual articles were written from the persepctive of that individual, and not the collective. This includes the quotes relating to sentencing that are taken from the perspective of the individual being sentenced, or their family.
- As to the claim for Knowledge (XXG):ONEEVENT, how do we manage Chan and Lawrence's reported activities in October and December 2004? These activities are only partially covered in the main article becuase they have minimal relevance, but are covered in more detail in the individual artitcles.
- A similiar theme is also adopted for the allegedly threatening behaviours of Sukumaran and Chan to some members of the Nine. This is best covered in the individual articles where it is relevant to the individual. Jherschel (talk) 09:22, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep all ONEEVENT explains that if an event is significant enough, the individuals may become significant enough to cover. In this case the event has gone for years, and the individuals and their responses have been covered separately in many RS. The event has impacted Australia's national discussion so much that it clearly meets this threshhold. --99of9 (talk) 23:07, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

- What does GAN nomination have to do with AFD? AIRcorn (talk) 01:08, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
- Because it was made in good faith, and current GAs tend to be very quickly kept at AfD due to having that quality assessment. If they're then failed, then they should be allowed to be renominated with no prejudice. Sceptre 02:02, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
- It hasn't undergone any quality assessment yet though. Quality and notability are two separate issues in any case. AIRcorn (talk) 03:00, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
- The point I'm making is that if a good faith quality assessment is merely pending then it should not be nominated for deletion. GA/FA immunity to AfD is an unwritten extension of BEFORE: that, by meeting the criteria, they implicitly pass NOT and N because, obviously, an nn-topic has little chance of meeting source requirements for even GA, and a NOT-topic would be quick-failed in either process. They're clearly not obvious failures, as the articles have been sitting at GAN for three months. Sceptre 03:25, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
- There is no such procedural keep for articles which are featured articles, let alone those only nominated for good status. Also articles can be assessed as good, even if they are not notable (see WP:WGN#Beyond the scope), although it is harder to meet the other criteria. The fact they have been in the queue for so long probably has as much to do with their questionable notability as anything else. AIRcorn (talk) 04:04, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
- Sceptre, it's entirely possible that there's another reason they've been sitting there for so long--no one wants to touch them. Ha, I see now that Aircorn basically said that already. Drmies (talk) 04:56, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
- This rule must be unwritten for a reason: nominate an article at WP:GAN and it will stay out of an AFD discussion for the weeks/months it remains on that page? If anything, clearing up notability should precede a GA nomination, but that's another rule no one wrote down. Hekerui (talk) 12:19, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
- I disagree; if they were of questionable notability, they would probably get quick-failed by most GA reviewers. I think the AfD is premature, and that WP:BLP/N should've been used consulted prior to the notification. Sceptre 14:28, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

The entire article is based on one obituary, and I cannot find any other reliable sources to indicate notability. Although the subject is the father and father-in-law of notable people, notability is not inherited. (BTW this is a cousin, not the father, of Shlomo Carlebach.)

In the case of a WP:NOTABLE rabbinic family or dynasty (see an example at Category:Soloveitchik rabbinic dynasty), the WP rule of "notability is not inherited" is not clear. There is nothing inherently notable about Prince Harry of Britain except that he is the descendant of royalty but in this case this rabbi has more notable and meaningful accomplishments.

- Delete. IZAK is wrong that being a member of a notable family automatically confers notability, that's why we're constantly agreeing to delete articles on minor Greek royals. Harry is notable because he has received coverage in reliable sources. Carlebach has not.

This is an upcoming documentary for which there are no independent reliable sources yet. There are references on Imbd, but those don't count as reliable sources as there is no editorial control.

Pedophilia is clearly defined by WP:MEDRS as a predominate sexual attraction to pre-pubescent children. Colloquially, "pedophiles" are defined as criminals who engage in child sexual abuse. To say that because many men happen to find young women who have reached biological sexual maturity but are under the legal age of consent attractive, in addition to whatever other sexual preferences they may have, and regardless of whether they act illicitly upon such impulses, that all men are pedophiles, in either the medical or colloquial sense, is ridiculous.

Apparently non-notable self-published album: no evidence for notability provided.
Although the article states that this album debuted at #13 in the Billboard 200, that the album is rated 4.5 stars on Allmusic, and that Yahoo.com rated the album "favorable", none of the references given actually appear to support any of these claims, and a cursory search of other sources also failed to find any evidence to corroborate any of these claims. Indeed, the Allmusic entry cited has no entries at all in the "charts and awards" section, which seems discordant with the claim of having released an album that went straight to #13 in 2005.
It's not also clear what the statement "nominated in Billboard magazine" might mean -- nominated for what? by whom? -- and there's no cite given to support this, either.

Article about a stone hut in Norway. The only source is to a local municipal website. There is insufficient coverage in reliable sources to show this is a notable building, clearly does not meet WP:GNG. Prod was contested, so bringing here for a wider discussion. Sparthorse (talk) 06:08, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- Keep To be honest, I don't see any benefits for Knowledge (XXG) in deleting this kind of information. The article has one good source (I don't see any problems with the 'local' nature of the source, it has nothing to do with reliability of the information). Moreover, the cottage is mentioned in the book Kulturgeschichte des Reisens (Cultural History of Travelling), ISBN 9783896785480, p. 87 (in German) (available at G-Books). The information could serve to people travelling in Norway. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 09:26, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

- Keep In addition to the brief but interesting mention in the German book adduced by Vejvančický, there are a lot of Norwegian-language hits on the Kvasir search engine. It has some cultural importance. I've improved the English and clarified some things (including the meaning of the name) and added some additional details and inline references. The one English source I found has some mistranslation, but I've added it in support of the basic points. As a point of potential confusion, one source notes that there were several huts in Norway given this name because they were built by either this baron or his father; there is also this one in Seldal, built 30 years later by Edward Theodore Salvesen.

- Keep. I first have written a stub, and then started searching sources, as I was sure it has due coverage. It happened that it didn't, as it is only reviewed in a couple of blogs. Its popularity increases, so it will get some coverage in following months. While it violates WP:N now (evidently), I just think its impractical to delete it. P.S.: It got to Debian (and Arch, and Gentoo, and somewhere else) because it's popular under OpenBSD, thus the mantra lightweight yet secure. — Dmitrij D.

- Well, for me the fact that it's mentioned in OpenBSD's FAQ proves its notability. There are just too few external projects mentioned and a strict process of material inclusion in that FAQ. The current Knowledge (XXG) policy's approach shifts the idea of notability from importance to buzz, so that we do have even articles on software that was buzzy, but was never released. Don't get me wrong, I don't state that this article should be kept because that one exists, I just want to stress that there is a significant portion of material that is inadequately covered.
- I could write a review of xxxterm for the site that is considered a reliable software news site here, and so the notability would get established. That would even not qualify for gaming the system, as I'll get an editor's approval in a couple of hours and a bunch of metoo comments and plusit hits to the article within a day. Furthermore, I could go to /. and link the review there, so there'll be a bunch of reviews in blog-like news sites. Is this type of evidence really required? — Dmitrij D.

Article is an advertisement, a glorified business listing if you will. There is absolutely nothing unique about this business operation to merit an article. Not pricing, not films shown, not the owner, and not theater itself. For the latter, it is a movie theater built in the late 70's with no special architecture or design traits. Nothing historic happened here either, it was just a general run-of-the-mill shopping center cinema for 20 years that closed and later reopened as a cheap second-run theater.

- Keep. I've added some additional text and sourcing to the article from the BBC, Radio Free Europe, The Sofia Echo, and the Interlic News Service. Here's another from 2010 where the acting president of Moldova fields a question from a Unimedia reporter and in response makes a joke specifically referring to Unimedia. This April 2009 news report from official Moldovan news agency listing Unimedia as one of "Moldova's main information sites" down because of too many trying to get the "latest news about the protest actions". There are several hundred Gnews hits specifically to Unimedia.md--most are not of individual interest for notability purposes (sample), but as a group I think they help establish Unimedia's notability as a news source. It is even starting to turn up in scholarly articles. And, I know this doesn't prove notability, but it's still a data point: Alexa shows them as being 20th-ranked Moldovan (*.md) site. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 06:32, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
