- Redirect - Same article, with 1996 Romanian Open as best English title and oldest article. They can be merged and 1996 Open Romania is a good redirect as per Oleaster. Sincerely, Taketa (talk) 05:56, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

I like your article, but it doesn't contain references that establishe notability. All you need to find is one reference that supports your statement that the song was included on the Billboard hot 100. The reference that you have in the article now doesn't link to anything. With a little more work. I'm sure your article can be kept. There's nothing seriously wrong with it. As long as you find the reference that you need, I'll come back and withdraw my nomination for deletion. Good luck. Bfpage |leave a message 23:36, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
I found a new source, directly from the Billboard Hot 100 itself on Google Books. - ArtistsCry13 — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArtistsCry13 (talk • contribs) 23:50, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Keep. Billboard has a chart archive, and it's quicker to search through that than it is to start an AfD discussion. WP:SOFIXIT would be a good essay for the nominator to read. Reference for the chart placing is here. Not averse to redirecting to a parent article (ie, the artiste or an album) if others feel that there isn't enough info for a standalone article, but the references already in the article might just be enough. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 23:51, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
Excellent! I am very glad to withdraw the nomination for the deletion of this article. You found some other references to demonstrate the song indeed appeared on the top 100 billboard hits. I must apologize for my ignorance of the existence of the Billboard chart archive, but I am glad that you know about it. Good job. I look forward to seeing even more articles created by you, ArtstsCry13. Best regards,

- Comment - only wrestled 1 recorded match per Wrestlingdata. I searched reliable sources and found 15 results. Removing the "thanks to Greg Lambert" - who sent in results of his own shows - takes away 7 results, leaving 8 results. Of these, 5 of them are republishing of press releases by wrestling promotions. Only 3 are "real" coverage from the reliable secondary sources: One, Two and Three. To summarise these three sources: 1) He talked on a podcast. 2) He wrote a book and was booker for the FWA for 2 years. 3) He appeared at a wrestling event, starship.paint ~ regal 02:37, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- Delete - as per my proof above, he has only three instances of "real" coverage (instead of parroting of press releases) by secondary sources. None of these were very detailed or focused on him. So, he fails WP:GNG. starship.paint ~ regal 02:57, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- Delete - WP:GNG - Lacks significant coverage in reliable sources. - Taketa (talk) 06:08, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
All information contained in this Knowledge entry is true. Many secondary sources of the matches referred to on the internet do not refer to Greg Lambert because role as manager/ring announcer/commentator is often less high profile that of the wrestlers who appeared on the shows. There is a video of of Greg Lambert performing at an FWA event in 2004 on the internet http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Drs4mzlmADk and appearing at FWA in 2010 here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnJEeY7K120 and also appears in an FWA music video in 2004 here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O79ftoKTVlQ . There are numerous positive reviews of the Holy Grail book which can be found on line including here http://www.lep.co.uk/what-s-on/holy-grail-the-true-story-of-british-wrestling-s-revival-1-5629053 and here http://www.pwmania.com/sheds-review-holy-grail-true-story-british-wrestlings-revival. The PCW website has a profile of Greg Lambert here http://www.prestoncitywrestling.com/wrestlers/greg-lambert . An interview with Wrestling Eye podcast includes Greg Lambert talking about his writing career with Power Slam here http://wrestlingeye.libsyn.com/ Further sources can be produced if required. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gregthetruthlambert (talk • contribs) 12:33, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Gregthetruthlambert, of all the sources you mentioned, only LEP passes the test for a reliable secondary source. Secondary means that they are not affliated with you so prestoncitywrestling or FWA does not count. Please provide more sources like the LEP (media publications) since it's obvious to me from my own search that the wrestling sites have not covered you in much detail at all. Even if your article were to survive, it needs a massive trim due to a lack of WP:Verifiability. starship.paint ~ regal 07:13, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

- Delete This is a very low-notability shopping channel, but this version of the article can't be rescued. Should be focused on the channel's history, not how many mines it leases products from and its shipping policies. Sadly, this version of the article from 2011 is the most neutral version that can be found. Finally, every edit since May 2014 looks like it's been made by a walled garden of possible WP:COI accounts that's gone unnoticed since most WP:TV editors usually don't edit shopping/infomercial channel articles.

- Keep. Television channels are presumed notable according to WP:BROADCAST, and WP:COI is not a reason for deletion. --Sammy1339 (talk) 21:55, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment Since when did we not enforce COI?! We have a user named Vaibhavhitesh (talk · contribs) editing the article with promotional information who just happens to be part of a company called Vaibhav Global Limited, which owns the network. That's my concern, that it's become a mission statement for VGL rather than a neutral encyclopedia article. Actually read my rationale for deletion, please; we don't keep blatant ads for companies here. Nate • (chatter) 16:33, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- Keep , Just because it's perceived to be a "low-notability" shopping channel doesn't mean it's not article-worthy. It's carried on the two major satellite providers in the United States as well as most cable systems. If other low-tier shopping channels merit a listing, so should the Liquidation Channel. Nemalki (talk) 19:04, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment Again, if it was the neutral version I linked to from 2011, it would be an easy keep. This barely talks about the channel itself, but a bunch of websites, blogs and 'who cares' information about how the company gets their product. Nate • (chatter) 16:33, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
- Delete I would remind folks that WP:BROADCAST isn't a policy. It isn't even a guideline. It is an essay. While essays are often useful, and I don't doubt that most of the time this essay is, at the end of the day, we assume nothing, including notability. In this case, we have a minor channel that is literally one big commercial. This is the type of channel that cables companies don't have to pay for, the channel pays the cable companies to be included. Short of rock solid references, that fact lets us apply WP:COMMONSENSE, which trumps all policies, and say that without proper references, we can't say it passes our criteria for inclusion. I'm guessing, and hoping, that this will get relisted so more eyes can look at it. Dennis - 2¢ 22:45, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

The result was delete. Almost everyone agrees that there's no independent notability here, but there's roughly equal support for deleting and for redirecting. Either has the effect of removing the article from view, so there's little practical difference between the options. Since, however, there may well be BLP problems in the article's history, deleting seems the more prudent course. If anyone wants to create a redirect from this title to Gamergate controversy#GameJournoPros, he or she is free to do so. Deor (talk) 07:01, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

- Comment - The Ars Technica piece does cover the topic in detail as do the Breitbart articles. The other articles are much more focused on the GamerGate connection. Ars Technica is an RS, but as far as I know Breitbart is not. The minimum inclusion criteria (WP:GNG) requires multiple RSes covering the topic in significant depth. My first impression is that I only see one... At a minimum, however, this should clearly be redirected to (if not merged into) GamerGate rather than simply deleted. -Thibbs (talk) 00:25, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment - I'd love to see that, but I don't see that as feasible in the near future, given that the Wiki page on the Gamergate controversy is embroiled in an edit war, and any mention of the GJP groups is continually deleted. The GameJournoPros leaks are a noteworthy event, having been verified and commented on by its own members, and the information should be available to Wiki readers interested in the ongoing controversy.
- According to the General Notability Guidelines you linked, there are five criteria that a topic must meet to be suitable for a standalone article.
- Significant coverage: the GJP is more than a trivial mention in all of these sources (excluding Re/code, which is a glossary-like piece), and the guidelines state that it need not be the main topic (Gamergate) of the source material.
- Reliable: Forbes is a reliable source, and the Editor's statements from Ars Technica, Polygon and GamePolitics regarding GJP, along with Usher's interview, are also reliable, as they are first-hand accounts from members (and in Orland's case, creator) of the Google Group. Breitbart is obviously a slanted news source, but all the leaked lists and email dumps have been verified by Orland, Grant, Fudge, and Usher, and Wiki policy states that reliable sources are not required to neutral or unbiased (WP:Bias). Also, Breitbart has been cited in its specific involvement in the Anthony Weiner sexting scandals and the ACORN 2009 undercover videos controversy, so there is a precedent.
- Sources and independence from the subject are a bit a up in the air, as Orland, Grant and Fudge's articles could arguably be considered too "close" to the subject matter. I used the precedent set in the JournoList page, which featured official statements from J-list members defending their involvement.
- Presumed: I think this one is clear. ArtemisiaPoppycock (talk) 06:22, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- The problem for me really centers on the lack of significant coverage. We have Ars Technica kind of going into the history of the group and presenting context, but then all of the other article just cover the GamerGate related leaks. Even if it met GNG (and I think that's debatable) I'm having a difficult time imagining that the article could ever be more than a stub. Per WP:PAGEDECIDE, such an outcome is not really an attractive option. Anyway it's not like there are no sources, the topic just seems more like an element of another topic to me. -Thibbs (talk) 05:04, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
- Redirect to Gamergate controversy. As mentioned by Thibbs, all but one source are about its relation to other events, mostly Gamergate but also JournoList. Woodroar (talk) 00:40, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

I was advised by Bearian to send this to AfD rather than proposed deletion on my talk page due to it being controversial.

- Comment added after close: In response to queries on my talk page, I am adding the following rationale: After checking all of the references that were present in the article, it would appear that one (astrazeneca.com) does not mention NOAV and one other is from NOAV itself. Neither can contribute to establish notability. All other references are brief reports of one single event (i.e., not significant coverage) that occurred very recently (apparently the article was created within 3 days of the newspaper reporting). Concerning the arguments presented in the discussion: The nom does not (as argued lower) state that the article should be deleted because of SPA, SOAPBOX, or ONEEVENT concerns. It is perfectly normal to give a short description of an article's history before presenting the deletion argument, which indeed follows immediately. In what follows, whereas the "delete" arguments are solidly policy-based (especially WP:NOTNEWS), the "keep" arguments resort to wikilawyering ("NOAV is a smaller grassroots animal rights group", "a period of time is any period of time", etc). Together, I found the "keep" arguments unconvincing and agree that creating an article for this organization is too soon. --Randykitty (talk) 13:52, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

- You're applying that quote in nearly the opposite way it's intended. What it means is that big organizations and small organizations should be treated equally, in a way that doesn't measure their importance by their size. For example, we wouldn't have a standard for a minimum number of members, minimum annual donations/revenue, etc. The only thing Knowledge cares about is whether the organization has received significant, in depth coverage in multiple reliable sources for more than one event. Could be one person or a million -- the sources are there or they're not. What that quote doesn't mean is that a smaller organization should be held to a lower standard because it's smaller. --— Rhododendrites \\ 05:16, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

- "Article created by WP:SPA apparently for WP:SOAPBOX around WP:ONEEVENT." The author of the article is irrelevant to AfD. The article has the appropriate encyclopedic tone. It is not a soapbox. Even if it was, that would be an indication for clean-up, not deletion. WP:ONEEVENT is explicitly about biographies. The article is about an organization, not an individual person.
- "Organization literally just started in October 2014." So what?
- "Secondary source coverage is less than I can count on one hand." WP:GNG states "There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected." How many secondary sources have you counted? How many sources would you like to see for this article? Axl ¤ 12:57, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Knowledge articles cover notable topics—those that have gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time, and are not outside the scope of Knowledge.
"over a period of time" being the key idea here. ONEEVENT and NOTNEWS are different applications of the same basic idea -- that notability extends beyond an event or events in a short timeframe. Hence WP:TOOSOON, because this organization will likely be notable in the future, but isn't now. --— Rhododendrites \\ 20:49, 28 October 2014 (UTC) - "sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time" NOAV meets this "sufficiently significant attention" ie national newspapers, has been in mentioned in High Court: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/antivivisection-group-offers-cash-to-name-cambridge-animal-testing-lab-workers-9821900.html and "over a period of time" a period of time is any period of time — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.6.31.117 (talk) 21:16, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

- Weak keep: The relevant guideline at WP:ORG says A company, corporation, organization, school, team, religion, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in secondary sources. Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject. A single independent source is almost never sufficient for demonstrating the notability of an organization. The article appears to meet this standard. In contrast, the three sentences in the nomination fail to make a convincing case for the articles deletion: WP:SPA is an essay that does not recommend automatic deletion of articles written by newcomers (it actually references the guideline WP:BITE instead), age of the organization is not mentioned as a criterion at WP:ORG, and a minimum source count of five is not supported by our notability guidelines.

- Knowledge's sourcing and notability standards are much stricter now than they were five years ago. The first AFD hinged on the idea that he had generated sufficient coverage in reliable sources to pass WP:NPOL #3 — but that criterion was never meant to cover people who only garnered WP:ROUTINE coverage in the context of a single candidacy for an office they didn't win. All candidates in all elections always garner local media coverage — so if that was all it took, it would be impossible to maintain any standards for politicians' notability at all. I'm sure he's a good guy, but nothing here makes him a person who warrants coverage in an encyclopedia — he's just a WP:BLP1E whose only substantive claim of notability is coming in third in an election where even the second place finisher doesn't have an article despite garnering at least as much coverage as this guy got.

I don't mean to sound like a broken record but I'd really like to get this retried for AfD without the opinion of any socks, as TheVerge24601 was a sock and Fan of the Dames is most likely a sock, just hasn't been blocked yet. These were the arguments from the last AfD:
- "Has substantial other edits" & "article appears to have significant edits by others" - yes the majority of them are socks.
- These were also the sources listed (by a sock) that were considered "significant coverage"
- Just lists Hunter as the director, article is about the play, not her. mere mention.
- again, it's about the play, not her. Her name is mentioned ONCE. mere mention
- She is mentioned once also in the article just mentioning she does the vocals. mere mention
- AGAIN her name is only mentioned once, only adding that she adds the vocals.
She isn't notable. She fails WP:ENTERTAINER, as it requires
- Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions. She hasn't

- Strong keep more or less per TomWS. Directing a production of a play that's reviewed in major national media like The New York Times is at least a strong indicator of notability. The number of times the director's name may be used (which, btw, the nom miscounts) isn't a key point, and, in the context or a review discussing, inter alia, the director's creative work, categorically cannot be dismissed as "mere mentions". She's won a notable theatrical award, an indication of notability under ANYBIO. She apparently does pass WP:ENTERTAINER for multiple significant roles in notable stage productions. An ongoing jihad to purge Knowledge of content related to a sockmaster's obsessions may not be as disruptive as the sockmaster's activity, but it can still approach the disruptive. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 20:18, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- If that's your argument then make an article about the play but not about her. The most of the articles about her aren't about her but about the play. And yes the number of time she's mentioned (sorry if I miscounted, didn't mean to) does count because if the whole article is about her, then it's significant, if it's just a mere mention then it isn't, which fails significant coverage. And again, winning one award doesn't make her notable. How does she pass WP:ENTERTAINER when the majority of her roles are minor if not just extras? LADY LOTUS • TALK 17:20, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- It's simply wrong to argue that coverage of a creative professional's creative work does not contribute to their notability. The number of times the creator's name is dropped is really minimally significant. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 21:27, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

- Keep The previous discussion was closed only two weeks ago and I fail to see a valid reason for its reopening as Sophie Hunter is clearly just as notable now as she was then. I completely agree with Hullaballoo Wolfowitz in that pursuing content deletion solely because it had been contributed by a user subsequently ejected from the project is counterproductive. As for "getting this retried for AfD without the opinion of any socks," I'd like to point out that an opinion neither gains nor loses any validity based on who expresses it. TheVerge24601 might be blocked now, but he certainly contributed positively to the previous discussion, and I don't see why that contribution should be discounted.

- Comment: WP:GEOLAND states "Named natural features are often notable, provided information beyond statistics and coordinates is known to exist."
The hills in this list apparently do not meet the requirements for notability.I actually just did a search on the first 16 of the individual hills using +"name of a hill" +morro +"porto alegre" and of the 16, 10 have additional information about them so this list technically is worthy of a keep if refs are found for each, or at least the majority, of these hills, which seems likely. Although fairly uninteresting content for outsiders, it could actually meet the requirements for WP:LIST. Having seen images, some of these hills are very beautiful and much more imposing than one would think, judging from their heights. Some are also nature reserves and observation peaks. - Takeaway (talk) 21:42, 19 October 2014 (UTC) - Keep - I agree that named and sourced geographical features are pretty much always considered notable.

Article about a building on a university campus, without any real reliable sourcing to actually attest to the notability of the building as a topic in its own right — four of the five sources here are primary sources, and the one acceptable source (#3) has as its subject not the building, but the university department that happens to be located in the building. Which means that nothing here actually demonstrates that the building is notable as a topic in its own right — and furthermore, even the content is much more about the department than the building itself, which makes this very nearly a WP:COATRACK. (And, for the record, I did my undergrad at this very university, so I'm quite familiar with the building in question. It's certainly not impossible that it could be notable enough for an article, but I can also think of at least three other buildings on campus — Tabaret Hall, surely — that would rank higher on the priority list than this one. And regardless, the sourcing would have to be a lot better than this.) I'm willing to withdraw this if properly reliable sourcing that actually has the building as its subject can be added, but I'd politely suggest to the creator that they're better off shooting for an article about the Department of Fine Arts itself.

In my opinion this clearly fails WP:ENT as EastEnders appears to be the only role she has had. I have just googled her and cannot find anything so looks like she's not been credited in anything for nearly 20 years.

- Delete - Not needed, already covered by History of the Republic of Ireland. Snappy (talk) 18:29, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment -- This could be a legitimate article, as we can have a hierarchy of articles going from the general to the detailed, usually lined by "main" templates. However that means that the detailed article needs to be more detailed than the general one. In this case it is less so. I note that the article cited by Snappy has its section break at 1939, not 1937 where the constitutional break falls. I would recommend that the headings be changed accordingly. Peterkingiron (talk) 20:05, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
- The reason for 1939 in History of the Republic of Ireland is for World War II, which is important given Ireland's neutrality. This article however has been created for pov reasons, and should be considered a pov fork. It contains nothing that can't be added to History of the Republic of Ireland. It also tries to create the impression that a new state came into being in 1949. Ireland left the British Commonwealth in that year, the 1937 Constitution of Ireland did not change, an Act of the Oireachtas was passed, so one country left an organisation of countries, no new state was created. This article is factually incorrect as the infobox says Ireland (1937-1949) was succeeded by the Republic of Ireland. This is wrong, Ireland (or Eire, or whatever you want to call it) came into being in 1937 and has remained in existence since then. Snappy (talk) 21:59, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

- Comment I strongly object to blanking the article the way NeilN did. It's much better to give time for people involved to add their sources by adding {{fact}} where needed. I would vote for keeping the article, but I doubt anyone is interested in actually helping the author save the article by adding sources to it. In that case it's always better to delete, drive the author away from Knowledge and forget the whole issue. Right? //Halibutt 13:00, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
- @Halibutt: I am astonished that a spokesperson for a chapter of Wikimedia Foundation would ignore WP:BLP, a policy strongly influenced by the WMF, and wanting to vote keep without providing any evidence the subject is notable. --NeilN 13:50, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
- I always add sources when a subject is noteworthy and an article only needs to display more sources (Example). The problem here however is notability. When there is no significant coverage in reliable secondary sources, it cannot be added. I did a highbeam search which gave a single result, which was a mere name mention. Please do not imply that people are not doing their best for this article and for everyone involved. If you think we should add sources, consider doing it yourself. Don't worry if an article is blanked, just add sources here. - Sincerely, Taketa (talk) 14:14, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
- @NeilN and Taketa: First of all, I edit as an ordinary editor, and not as a spokesperson. And secondly, I did not comment about notability because it's impossible to establish notability when there are no sources in the article. Also, I pointed to the fact that the AfD on your "abridged" version is not really the same as voting on the original.
- Don't get me wrong, I meant no harm. I merely wanted to point out that a more fair solution would be to try to fix the article *before* deleting most of it and then nominating the sub-stub leftovers for deletion. And the talk page or the article's history do not mention any attempts at fixing the article, which is why I wrote what I did. AAMoF I encountered a very similar case not long ago and nominated it for deletion myself, but only after I tried to work things out with the author and did my best at trying to source it. Sure, not everyone has the time to do this, but IMO that's a safer way, as it doesn't drive people away from the project.
- To make it 100% clear, I know very little about sports and even less about Scottish football. I don't claim this article's subject is notable (well, he might be - now that the article was picked up by the mainstream media :D), or that the author is actually worth keeping, or that the article is salvageable. But I believe we as a community should have tried. Which is what I meant above. And which is why I didn't vote either way, merely commented on the procedure. Peace to all. //Halibutt 14:38, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

I can't find any reliable source material for this at all. Searches for "cash lewis", "cash lewis" rapper, etc., turn up nothing other than blogs and some self-published material. (Note that Google will automatically recognize "L3wis" as synonymous with "Lewis".) I therefore see no indication of notability. Seraphimblade 14:12, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- I am a little bit confused with the article too. But after research, a lover of hip-hop music (see my user page) and a Knowledge contributor, I found this appropriate to a Knowledge Article. I did some research and found that it has 10,000+ hits just of his name. I think it's good (not notable) but passable, when the article has charted one song (but did not received recognition nor coverage) and gaining mainstream recognition with over 350,000 views (I am not saying this marks his notability) just passable. Karlhard 03:55, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
- Certainly it's a common mistake. Indeed, thinking number of Google hits matters toward that is so common that it got written about. It doesn't, though, and there's no space between being notable and being passable as an article subject. (iTunes is not a national chart, by the way, as Apple is not a nation.) What's ultimately required for notability is that the subject have been reasonably extensively noted, by reliable sources not having an interest in doing so. That means more than a name drop or passing mention like the one listed below, it means coverage in some depth. Since article material must be verifiable via reliable sources, if that's not the case, we just don't have enough to write an article from. If he's covered more extensively in the future, the article can always be started at that time, but we always follow that source material coming about, not try to predict its future availability. Seraphimblade 05:05, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
- Maybe the Google Search do not clarify his notability. In the process I found an article about Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose that mentions Cash L3wis, I'm gonna still providing references as the conversation goes on - I know this doesn't prove the notability but somehow collaborate with the process. The iTunes (US) chart, is actually a chart, not because iTunes is not a country or Apple a nation but to US (United States) actually is. Karlhard 18:44, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

- I know it looks suspicious, but after doing some research, it's actually held, nominates attend to a venue and they celebrate and give physical awards the winner - that doesn't stabilize their notability either, but it's covered by news, paparazzis, recorded and transmitted via local TV. I made a Google Search query and found photos, you can see them here and here. And also found an introduction to the same subject here. Tell me if I am wrong. Karlhard 00:49, 21 October 2014 (UTC)

- Delete. Per WP:MUSICBIO, the claim of a single on the iTunes chart indicates that the subject may be notable. In this case, however, there is a lack of reliable sources discussing the subject; I seriously question whether "Hype Magazine" (hosted by Blogspot), which is mentioned by the keep !voter, qualifies as one. There isn't enough out there to justify a WP:BLP article. I do not believe the award nomination mentioned in the article is an indicator of notability, either. Possibly a case of WP:TOOSOON. --Kinu /c 18:52, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

- Thank you for providing the correct link. However, I still see no evidence that this is "the most notable music blog" other than a claim made in the banner ad at top of their website that they are #1. Indeed, in their Twitter bio, they refer to themselves as "Full Service Marketing & PR Company". Hmm. --Kinu /c 18:09, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

There is also an (unreferenced) article on the topic at Czech Knowledge, see Československý protichemický prapor v Perském zálivu 1990-1991. A notable and interesting topic. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 12:26, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- Comment – sorry, there is one equivalent article actually. Australian contribution to the 1991 Gulf War exists. But wouldn't any info be best placed at the army page until such time as a separate article is called for by size constraints? C679 16:31, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- I personally don't see any problems with this separate article. It is unreferenced but I would say it is a decent overview. No need to merge. The topic has potential and Knowledge is a work in progress. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 16:40, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- Keep, while I am not finding significant coverage from multiple American English language reliable sources, there are sufficient mentions in multiple reliable sources to show some notability in order to verify sufficient content in order to create an article. Furthermore, showing the Czech language sources found by other editors in this AfD, there are clearly sufficient reliable sources about the subject of this AfD to pass WP:GNG.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 04:51, 30 October 2014 (UTC)

Non-notable compilation albums. Some of these charted in this very small market, but I'm not seeing any in-depth of the ones that did. The missing numbers from the sequence have been deleted at AfD, see Knowledge:Articles for deletion/Now That's What I Call Music 14 (N.Z. series), Knowledge:Articles for deletion/Now That's What I Call Music 18 (N.Z. series), Knowledge:Articles for deletion/Now That's What I Call Music 19 (N.Z. series), etc. Redirect to Now_That's_What_I_Call_Music!_discography#New_Zealand a possibility. Stuartyeates (talk) 07:06, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Delete - Searching for news references (see here) comes back with nothing. But searching for web references with Knowledge articles filtered out (see here) reveals some sources, but mostly about the series in general. Nothing that would establish the need for every single album to have each have their own Knowledge article. If someone asserts a good argument against deletion, merge all of this into one article about the series. ~Oshwah~ 08:13, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

There were previously 3 items on this page. However the band was deleted for failing the GNG and the term was deleted for being a non-scientific and non-notable neologism. With the album as the only page left, this is no longer needed (and I guess the album can then be made the primary topic). Yaksar (let's chat) 05:45, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Redirect to Fear of Music (album), as per the guideline at Knowledge:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#G6._Technical_deletions (see footnote.3). Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 06:08, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Dylanfromthenorth, since the album would end up redirecting to here, would this page not have to be deleted first?--Yaksar (let's chat) 06:11, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- No I meant change the content of the disambiguation page so that it redirects to the album page (and leave the album page at Fear of Music (album)) Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 06:16, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Oh, why would we do that? We have no other page at the title, so there's no reason it wouldn't be the primary topic?--Yaksar (let's chat) 06:19, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Because it's the simplest way of doing it; because it negates the need for a deletion discussion; because that's the guideline. It still would be the primary topic - anyone who types/clicks Fear of Music gets redirected to the album page, and anyone who types/clicks Fear of Music (album) gets taken to the album page. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 06:26, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- I mean, ok. Our disambiguation guidelines would then have us move the page to the current name and have the disambiguated version redirect to it. I thought it would make sense to just ask the closing admin to do it in one go, but I guess if you'd prefer I could make it a separate RM after though? Seems a bit inefficient however.--Yaksar (let's chat) 06:28, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- RM? The guideline in the footnote I linked to above clearly says that situations like this should be solved by turning the disambiguation page into a redirect. It's not inefficient; it's really straightforward... Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 06:31, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Disambiguations-related deletion discussions. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 06:22, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Oh sorry, WP:RM as in requested move. The footnote in that guideline is correct but is a bit different than this situation. It's designed more for situations where, say, George Bush has only 1 notable link on its page (pretend for the sake of example). At this point, it could then be redirected to George H. W. Bush rather than deleted since it is a perfectly valid redirect, but a page like George H. W. Bush (disambiguation) would not be a logical redirect to a specific article so it could then be deleted. In this case, our only topic is a disambiguated version of the same name, but, since there is nothing to disambiguate from, according to Knowledge:Disambiguation it should just exist at this title.--Yaksar (let's chat) 06:40, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Modify page to hard-redirect users to Fear of Music (album) - Since the other article listed in the page (Fear of Music (band)) doesn't exist, this page should be modified to simply re-direct users to the Fear of Music (album) page. ~Oshwah~ 08:20, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Is there a reason that page shouldn't redirect to this title?--Yaksar (let's chat) 14:46, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Delete - I don't think this needed to come to AfD. Disambigs with two links are rare to begin with, but this one should only have 1. The band article was deleted and there are no incoming links to it (I just removed the only two links in lists), so it should just be removed from the disambig. That leaves only the album. It doesn't make sense to redirect to an article with a parenthetical description, so delete this one in order to clear the way for a move of Fear of Music (album) → Fear of Music. --— Rhododendrites \\ 13:59, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Speedy delete and Move Fear of Music (album) to Fear of Music. If there's nothing else to disambiguate, then we don't need the "(album)" suffix at all (in other words, what Rhododendrites said). -- Gyrofrog (talk) 15:43, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

- Redirect as a plausible search term, along with Datan (mythology) and Lawkapatim, to List of Slavic mythological figures.

- Comment -- My preference would be to redirect this (and other minor gods) to a list article such as Polish mythology. However, that article only lists the names, not ther attributes of the god. I have no knowledge of how much is known about what the pagan Poles believed about such deities, but if nothing is known more than the stub in the article, merging back to the list is probably the best solution. However this would need to be done generally. Peterkingiron (talk) 20:11, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

- comment This is some notion of Marija Gimbutas (see ), but I don't know offhand whether it has any traction, and I don't know how Poland has anything to do with this, since we're talking neolithic era speculations. Mangoe (talk) 13:17, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Redirect to Marija Gimbutas as a plausible search term. The article states clearly that this is a modern neologism that originated with Gimbutas, but I guess the question is whether or not it is notable enough for a stand-alone article. I don't think so. A very brief reference to it is cited by Thorkild Jacobsen in a book edited by Richard S. Hess and David Toshio Tsumura and other academic sources (e.g. Miriam Robbins Dexter, Vassos Karageorghis, Anthropological Quarterly, proceedings of a Thracology conference ). There appears to be reference to it in The Journal of Prehistoric Religion, which appears to be an academic source(see ) but I can't say for sure. Incidentally, there is a reference to this in Pensive Christ. Hamangia culture does not currently mention it, but it appears to be connected.

As with the other two articles created by this editor for very similar subjects Guldencoin and Sterlingcoin I really am not seeing anything on a quick search to evidence that they are notable subjects.. All three articles are extremely promotional, unsourced, and read like PR/conflict of interest copy promoting these very new digital currencies. Although not hard evidence I was surprised that Google Search's autocomplete function didn't recognise any of the three terms at the time I nominated these (this may change as people start searching for them, but as signs go that doesn't look good.)
