An article about a battle at an Indian village in 1971, that is lacking any WP:SIGCOV in third-party, reliable, secondary sources, despite there being a plethora books focusing on the parent Indo-Pakistani war of 1971. The article currently only cites the scarce works of the Pakistani junior commanders, who fought the battle at the time and wrote memoirs and articles in the Pakistani fora about it, and these are neither reliable nor suffice for establishing the noteworthiness of the subject for a standalone existence here.

Contested PROD, my original concern being Not convinced on the notability of this phrase. I've never even heard of it until just now (and I follow politics at least somewhat closely) and overall seems to be a vandal magnet. Contested by Vanamonde93 with the rationale Coverage is marginal but clearly exists: whether this deserves a standalone article, or a merger, or outright deletion is better decided with more scrutiny. Therefore sending the page here for said additional scrutiny. My original concerns still remain, and given that the page is also appearing to be a magnet for disruption, I do not believe it merits its own page. Taking Out The Trash (talk) 17:44, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

Comment Even if this article were merged into Democratic Party (like Vote blue no matter who is), I think it would be a vandalism magnet. Maybe it could go on the Presidency of Joe Biden page, since the concept is mostly about a Biden cult of personality and a fervor to defend his then-ongoing legacy? I think as a concept it could be fleshed out, but I could not find a wealth of sources using the term. I know Cenk Uyghur uses it a lot, but he is not reliable to say the least.

There is no original research as references are provided or can be made available. There is no advertising. This is not a directory but a comparison. And this is not a mirror or a repository of links. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.167.203.95 (talk) 15:37, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
I proposed this because Wikipedia articles are not guides, or a repository of indiscriminate information collected by original research without reliable sources. This page is an example of both of these things. The collection of external links on this page, that are not independent of the subjects (see WP:NOTLINK), cannot be used to verify the claims made within. A main pillar of this encyclopedia is that articles must be verifiable and do not contain independent research.
There is a goal to edit the article to improvement, but because of the above, and the lack of clear inclusion criteria as to what tools make sense to have in this comparison, in my view it does not appear that it be edited to significance.

Despite being tagged for notability and COI since 2022, the current version of this article still provides no justification for its inclusion in Wikipedia. The references are primarily user-generated or self-published promotional websites. There is not a single reliable secondary or academic source demonstrating why the subject is notable as a researcher, professor, or author. The article fails to meet WP:GNG and WP:PROF. Deletion preferred.–𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 07:55, 21 August 2025 (UTC)

  • 1, It’s an article about Urdu poetry; nothing is relevant to the article.
  • 2, These are some routine book reviews. They are not published in any academic publications; instead, they are advertisements published in news media. Plus, there is nothing that establishes the subject’s notability.
  • 3 This is a user-generated file-sharing website. What is the relation of this unreliable website to the article’s notability?
  • 4, The article is about Urdu Ghazal in Sindh.
  • 5 A catalogue of a book about Ghalib.
This article falls under Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons, which states that it must be written with the greatest care and attention to verifiability, neutrality, and the avoidance of original research. We must be very firm about the use of high-quality, reliable sources. The sources you mentioned do not meet WP:NBASIC, which requires that people are presumed notable only if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.–𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 17:34, 27 August 2025 (UTC)

This article is almost entirely made up of primary sources, and what remains doesnt seem to establish notability. Fails WP:LISTN and no significant coverage of his works outside of him. It also seems to mislead that there are more articles based on the books than there are, by using the "iarchive" wikilink.

Subject does not appear to meet WP:GNG, with a lack of significant coverage in independent sources. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:53, 21 August 2025 (UTC)

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of India-related deletion discussions. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:53, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep Sunny Kumar Singh is a senior IAS officer, currently serving as District Magistrate of New Delhi, a very important administrative post in India’s capital. He has also served as Delhi’s Excise Commissioner during a period of high public and political scrutiny. His receipt of the Prime Minister’s Award for Excellence in Public Administration (2023) and the Arunachal Pradesh State Gold Medal (2022) further demonstrates national recognition of his work. Coverage in multiple reliable and independent sources such as The Hindu, New Indian Express, and Times of India provides the required significant discussion required under the General Notability Guidelines. This combination of high-profile roles, national awards, and sufficient press coverage makes him clearly notable as a public official. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yennavo (talkcontribs) 09:10, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
    Which of those sources discusses Singh in any depth? Cordless Larry (talk) 13:23, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
    Also, I checked the sources for the awards, and they weren't awarded to him personally but to the district of Changlang. Cordless Larry (talk) 13:40, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
    While the Prime Minister’s Award for Excellence in Public Administration is technically given in the name of a district, it is awarded at the same time to the District Magistrate or Deputy Commissioner, who is in charge of the administration. This is why the Government of India records it on the officer’s official record sheet, rather than just at the district level. The Arunachal Pradesh State Gold Medal works similarly, acknowledging both the district administration and the officer leading it. Therefore, the awards go to Mr. Singh as the head of the district administration. Multiple reliable sources have reported this information. I can provide government references and archived copies of the award citations, if needed, to explain the nature of the conferment. Archivelens (talk) 14:37, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
    I agree with Wikipedia user @Yennavo’s view that Mr. Singh’s role as District Magistrate of New Delhi is important due to the administrative and political weight of this position. His time as Excise Commissioner occurred during a time of intense public attention and received coverage from several national media outlets.
    As mentioned earlier, the awards are formally given to the district, but they are also logged in the officer’s service profile by the Government of India. This shows that they acknowledge the officer’s leadership as well as the district’s administration.
    These key roles, national and state level awards, and ongoing coverage in trustworthy independent sources meet the criteria under WP:GNG for significant coverage and under WP:NPOL for public officials. Archivelens (talk) 14:41, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
    I'll ask you the same question as I asked Yennavo: which of the sources provides substantial coverage about Singh (as opposed to just mentioning him or quoting him)? Cordless Larry (talk) 16:15, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
    Thanks for the question. The following sources provide substantial coverage of Singh.
    [Source 1] : full length article discussing Singh’s career, contributions, and background.
    [Source 2]: specifies multiple features focusing on his work and impact.
    Other sources such as [3] [4] [5] [6] mention him and are included for additional context. Archivelens (talk) 10:47, 23 August 2025 (UTC)
    They're both pretty promotional and I doubt they'd qualify as reliable sources for Wikipedia's purposes. Cordless Larry (talk) 21:50, 23 August 2025 (UTC)
    Thanks for raising this. From what I can see, the Times of India piece and the Hindu article both go beyond just a passing mention. They include biographical details and career milestones that count as real coverage rather than just quotes. The Hindu article in particular gives more local context to his work. I’ve also added a couple of other sources that expand on his role. It would be great if other editors could also take a look and share their thoughts, so we can make sure the article is built on solid references. Archivelens (talk) 16:02, 25 August 2025 (UTC)

    The Times of India article does mention him, but only briefly as part of a larger bureaucratic reshuffle. This isn’t unusual though, indian media rarely goes deep into the actual work of IAS officers and tends to focus more on the drama and noise around politicians instead. While that single reference alone may not be strong enough to establish notability, it does show that he was significant enough to be included in coverage by one of India’s leading national newspapers. When this is read alongside more detailed reporting, such as in The Hindu and other sources that highlight his responsibilities and role, the subject’s importance becomes much clearer. The TOI piece works best as a supporting citation that adds weight to the overall picture of his prominence. Archivelens (talk) 17:06, 25 August 2025 (UTC)

I did a simple Google search on this person and only found a few fan-promoted websites. The article cites nine references: sources 1 and 7 are unreliable, user-generated fandom sites; 8 and 9 are death notices about someone else, with no direct relevance; and 5 and 6 are not references at all. The only primary source (Ahmad Noori) is used twice, but it is also unverifiable.

Multiple reliable secondary sources, including scholarly Islamic websites and books, document his influence as a qari, preacher, and founder of Madrasa Anwar-ul-Islam. His authored works, like Samajiyaat, further establish notability under WP:AUTHOR.
Sources 1 and 7 are not user-generated but reputable Islamic platforms; 8 and 9 are mischaracterized, as they provide context on his Barelvi contributions. Siddiqui’s cultural and religious impact in Sufism meets WP:GNG and WP:BIO. Zuck28 (talk) 14:07, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
@Zuck28: Do you have any idea what secondary sources are? If you do, please share at least one. The number 1 source is https://www.thesunniway.com and number 7 is https://alahazrat.net . How did you reach the conclusion that these are reputable historical websites? What is their editorial methodology? Their very names suggest that they are fandom-style blogs run by specific groups. According to WP:SELFSOURCE and WP:USERGENERATED, such fansites are generally not acceptable as sources. The only unverifiable primary source is (Ahmad Noori). According to WP:PSTS, Secondary or tertiary sources are needed to establish the topic's notability and avoid novel interpretations of primary sources. All analyses and interpretive or synthetic claims about primary sources must be referenced to a secondary or tertiary source and must not be an original analysis of the primary-source material by Wikipedia editors. So, in that case, we have no secondary scholarly sources to verify the topic's notability.–𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 17:23, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep per Baqi. I would trust Anwaar Ulama-e-Ahle Sunnat and also that Tazkira-e-Qari Muslehuddin seems academic resource as a whole about the subject.

  • Keep This plainly meets WP:GNG / WP:NCORP via significant, independent, non‐routine coverage that goes well beyond trade press. The subject (the B2B tech arm formerly known as Parimatch Tech, now GR8 Tech) has been the focus of many media, with a here for instance Forbes Ukraine with an in-depth analysis of its scale, client mix, rebrand, headcount (~1,500), and revenue shock after Ukrainian sanctions on its parent company; that article alone satisfies WP:CORPDEPTH and is neither trivial nor routine. [9] Forbes. Coverage is not limited to industry trades: The Economic Times reported the suspension of operations, sanctions and an alleged illegal activity [10]. Here is the detailed editorial Vector media article dedicated to Gr8 Tech and all perturbagtions with indudstrial analysis [11]. Here is another good coverage from the tech media talking about closing, sanctions, activity in CIS.. [12]. Here is a big read from editorial Forbes team about Gr8 Tech on how they managed to rebrand and survive in recent years [13]. More and more are available under Parimatch Tech+Gr8 Tech online search [14], [15], [16]. Jungle archer (talk) 17:30, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

There is a reliable source indicating that he is indeed and MBE -- this article is poorly written, and stinks of Wikipedia:SELFPROMOTION, but it satisfies the notability guideline at this point. Slightly off topic but there needs to be dialogue on the notability of MBE's as there are a ton of them. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 16:56, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

Contested draft. This article does not demonstrate this band meets the criteria of WP:NBAND with no charting songs and the 3 sources being 1 primary sources, 1 PR source and 1 non functional sources. Other sources found have been from colleg papers or other SEO type listings. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 13:52, 14 August 2025 (UTC)

hate to be an avid user of whataboutism/otherstuffexists, but they don't NEED to have charted songs to have a page. there are plenty of other criteria that can allow an artist page to exist. especially considering the amount of other artist pages who's subjects have never had charting songs. Haaayzey (talk) 18:28, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
@Haaayzey, so which criteria do you think they meet? I didn't say they had to have a charted song, only it's a quick avenue to determine notability.

  • Redirect to Gaza war hostage crisis#Adults. Even though this kidnapping has become notable, including likely continued coverage, at present length I do not view this article as a justified SPINOFF. Knowing the dynamics: the article will be expanded and I will need to change to keep, yet redirect is my current best verdict. gidonb (talk) 04:32, 7 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep. As predicted, I would need to change my opinion soon enough, and this was the case. The kidnapping is notable by the GNG and EVENT. Given the broad media interest and by similar cases, CONTINUEDCOVERAGE is extremely likely. 1E, while an important policy, does not apply. The article is now long enough to stand on its own and merging into the parents would create UNDUE. SPINOFF is a very important and often neglected guideline. We create crazy fragmentation by not adhering to it enough. gidonb (talk) 21:35, 7 August 2025 (UTC)
    I now find myself agreeing with this, Gidonb. I am thinking of withdrawing the nomination. Patient Zerotalk 23:38, 7 August 2025 (UTC)
Thank you for considering, User:Patient Zero. Maybe also give it a bit extra time at the next nomination. While this article started premature, so do a lot of other articles. Warnings are a better remedy if something is missing. This man has become an icon, as have many others during this bloody war. In hope of better times! 01:04, 8 August 2025 (UTC)
No worries at all. Yes, I completely agree with you there! I note we now have an article on Emily Damari - I mention her because the photo of the gesture she made with her injured hand became an iconic symbol too, and I followed all the news surrounding both her kidnapping and release. I realise now upon reflection that I was too quick to nominate this article. Also hoping for better times; I know of many people personally who this has deeply affected. Patient Zerotalk 02:43, 8 August 2025 (UTC)
Keep - As I relayed at the deletion discussion for Omer Shem Tov, I am skeptical that WP:ONE EVENT should be applied to experiences that have lasted 600+ days, which is not typically the case with most events that guideline likely contemplated. Nor is it appropriate to delete the article on the speculation that coverage will cease -- let time play out, and then see what happens. (Nor, unfortunately, can it be presumed, as in the nomination, that this hostage will be released.) The article is expanding by the day, and that is entirely in keeping with regular wiki procedures -- indeed, it is the reason there is a stub-class, and then a start-class, and so-forth.

Coverage appears to be limited and primarily sourced from a billboard display at Times Square, New York and a select few politicans commenting (Marcon, Mertz, and Lammey). The current sourcing and framing suggest an attempt to promote a specific narrative, potentially diverting attention from a broader issue such as the Gaza Strip famine.

Point 4 of WP:EVENTCRITERIA - Routine kinds of news events, whether or not tragic or widely reported at the time – are usually not notable. XYZ1233212 (talk) 16:15, 20 August 2025 (UTC)

Detailed comments for the nominator, XYZ1233212
@XYZ1233212, you've nominated a number of current events articles for deletion, getting considerable pushback and feedback. Recently, the vast majority have been kept, merged or redirected. Please re-read your instructions for nominating articles for deletion at WP:AFD. In particular, see the section titled "Before nominating: checks and alternatives":
    • Part A. "Read and understand these policies and guidelines:"
    • Part B. "Carry out these checks:"
      • Item 6. "Check "What links here" in the article's sidebar, to see how the page is used and referenced within Wikipedia."
        • Had you done this, you'd have discovered that in most cases, there were articles with existing mentions of these events that you could've redirected the articles to without bothering yourself and and the rest of us with AfDs.
        • In the few cases where there wasn't an existing mention in another article, you could have added one.
      • Item 7. "Check if there are interlanguage links, also in the sidebar, which may lead to more developed and better-sourced articles."
    • Part C. "Consider whether the article could be improved rather than deleted:"
      • Item 4. "If the topic is not important enough to merit an article on its own, consider merging or redirecting to an existing article. This should be done particularly if the topic name is a likely search term. Shortcut WP:CONRED. If a redirection is controversial, however, AfD may be an appropriate venue for discussing the change in addition to the article's talk page."
        • In most cases, the title was either a valid search term or else close enough to it for Google to find and follow a redirect to its target.
These detailed instructions are derived from our deletion policy. On Wikipedia, a "policy" means "a widely accepted standard that all editors should normally follow.". Including you. And me, too.
See the section Alternatives to deletion
    • The Merging subsection says "Articles that are short and unlikely to be expanded could be merged into larger articles or lists."
    • The Incubation subsection says "Recently created articles that have potential, but do not yet meet Wikipedia's quality standards, may be moved to the draft namespace ("draftified") for improvement, with the aim of eventually moving them back to the main namespace, optionally via the articles for creation (AfC) process.". It gives other details including the comment "Incubation must not be used as a 'backdoor to deletion'." Editors forget about articles, so "draftification" is not as desirable as other alternatives because drafts get automatically deleted after 6 months of activity.

I hate calling you out on this but I've left comments pointing to these policies on previous AfDs as well as on your talk page at User talk:XYZ1233212#Redirects for current events; these have had no impact to date.

As always, thanks again for your concern for our content. --A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count)

A. B., AfD is an appropriate venue to discuss a WP:BLAR. If XYZ1233212 performed a BLAR on each of these articles instead of starting an AfD discussion, I guarantee you they would be accused of backdoor deletion. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 03:59, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Redirect to List of law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty in the United States#2025. It is definitely due here, while but it's not so clear cut whether the whole subsection at Tremonton, Utah. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 03:53, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep. I believe that this article should be given a chance for a standalone article. The shooting itself was high profile in nature, and from the looks of it, it appears that the unlawful killing of police officers in Utah was lesser in comparison with quite a number of states in general. Also, there was clear emotional impact left on the public and the local community especially. According to the mayor mentioned in the article, this was Utah's first case of double murder of police officers in more than a century. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 13:25, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
    Comment, just to add on, I note that the death penalty was not frequently sought for murder cases in Utah, plus reference to the article about the upcoming execution of Ralph Menzies [23], there were only 11 people condemned to death row and executions in Utah were also extremely rare. Just today, the prosecution confirmed that the death penalty will be requested in that case. [24], [25], [26]. I thought that the nature of the case and circumstances themselves could warrant it a chance to exist in Wikipedia. NelsonLee20042020 (talk) 13:30, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
    If this is the case, then this case will get persistent coverage. Readers will also be Googling it over the next 1-3 years and it would be helpful to have something reliable on Wikipedia (as opposed to their relying on social media or hallucinatory AI).

Extremely narrow topic. This compounds is mentioned by 15 articles & patents according to Chemical Abstracts Service. With the exception of an old review article (that covers many compounds), the citing articles have been very lightly cited. In the Chemistry Project, typically, a notable compound would be mentioned by hundreds or more likely thousands of articles. As described in the article, the compound displays no distinctive properties. Again, for non-chemists, one should remember that millions of chemical compounds are known. Finally, the article is written under the cloud of WP:COI. The authors of this narrow article are the only ones publishing on it. COI is indicated by the referencing and the excruciating details provided by the originating editor. Within most projects, we discourage COI. Smokefoot (talk) 17:08, 20 August 2025 (UTC)

  • Keep (or Draftify). Per WP:GNG, impact/citation counts aren’t required; what matters is significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. DIN has peer-reviewed coverage of (i) selective π–π complexation with arenes enabling BTX discrimination (Sci Rep 2025), and (ii) its controlled hydrolysis to ICNF with distinctive photophysics (IJMS 2023). These are verifiable, non-trivial discussions of properties not routine for the parent class. That said, I support trimming undue experimental detail per WP:NOTJOURNAL and adding more independent secondary sources. COI concerns can be handled by disclosure and edit requests on talk per WP:COI. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mikicsek (talkcontribs) 11:44, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep. Passes WP:SIGCOV. WP:COI editing is concerning but it has no relevance to notability. The publications are in independent reliable journals, and the topic is covered directly and in detail in multiple sources. There are enough sources to meet our notability guidelines. We generally interpret three quality sources as sufficient to meet our standards for inclusion, so our threshold for content inclusion appears to be met. I also note that there are other sources such as this in the National Library of Medicine. Not seeing a valid reason to not cover this.4meter4 (talk) 00:00, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    I agree with 4meter4, and I add: If you can write (and source to independent scientific journals) a couple hundred words about a subject, then it's not the kind of doomed WP:PERMASTUB that we need to be worried about. I'd keep this. WhatamIdoing (talk) 03:34, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

Semi-advertorialized WP:BLP of a politician, not properly sourced as passing WP:NPOL. As always, unsuccessful election candidates do not get articles just for being candidates, and have to show some other grounds of preexisting notability besides their candidacy per se -- but the main notability claim here is an unsuccessful candidacy, and otherwise the article has far more to say about his political opinions than about him achieving anything that would count toward NPOL.
Further, even the sourcing here is mostly more about other members of his family than about him, and the only one that's about him in any meaningful way is a Q&A interview in which he's talking about himself in the first person (thus fine for verification of facts, but not counting for anything toward establishing passage of WP:GNG.)

List of sportspeople who competed for more than one nation (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

The scope of this list is vague and does not appear to meet WP:NLIST as a standalone list. It has been tagged as possibly including WP:OR since 2016. Further confusing the scope of this list, the introduction spends more time detailing what is not included, rather than what is included; for example, classification by birth place or multiple citizenship. There are no independent reliable third party sources cited, rather it usees only statistical databases and unsourced footnotes. Without a defined scope this seems like original research and WP:INDISCRIMINATE, compared to the better defined List of association football players capped by two senior national teams. Flibirigit (talk) 19:03, 20 August 2025 (UTC)

As per WP:BEFORE, certain sports such as association football have multiple reliable sources available discussion why playing for more than one nation is important, but I cannot say the same for all sports. If any section of this could be salvaged, perhaps splitting off into a separate well-defined lists by sport would alleviate WP:PEIS problems. Flibirigit (talk) 19:04, 20 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Comment. I agree the list in its current state is WP:INDISCRIMINATE. However, I know this a topic of discussion for Olympic athletes in RS, and possibly in other areas of athletics. The current list doesn't seem to make a distinction within a particular area of athletics. It's possible some of this content would be able to be covered within a more focused list(s). It seems like this article could benefit with some discussion at Wikipedia:WikiProject Sports where editors might have a better idea about potential splitting of the list into something that would comply with WP:NLIST. I kind of wish this hadn't been taken to AFD because I feel like its a more complex editorial issue than something we can effectively handle at AFD. Maybe a draftify might be appropriate if editors involved in sports want to work on retooling it. Best.4meter4 (talk) 00:41, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Comment probably a good idea to split by sports where there are lots of them and then link to the separate articles on the main page e.g. for association football where the list is long and covered in the separate page. And add prose to all the sections too. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:52, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Probably any table of more than about 10-15 people is worthy of its own article, and then table doesn't need to be here- instead prose summary (a line to a paragraph) can be added here with pertinent information. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:30, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

  • Draftify per the "Incubation" section of our deletion policy. This article doesn't meet the requirements of WP:NLIST yet. Bonadart I really like what you've done so far and where you're going; I look forward to seeing this as a bona fide article.

    thanks for all the help, but my point is i didnt create this page out of thin air, it was already there in list of active ships of brazilian navy, as a section but without any source for the past several years, no one ever bothered to add any source (dont believe me, you can chk the section is still here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_active_Brazilian_Navy_ships). i created the separate page bcoz this is an important page that delves in list of ships of brazil navy since past 3 centuries, as such deserves a own space. whoever created this page in the first place, should have added source, anyways will try and look into the source you provided to help the page flourish. but kindly understand drafting it will literally orphan the section in the link provided.

Nobody is making a serious claim here that the topic doesn't meet WP:NLIST because we all know based on the sources extant in the article on the Brazilian Navy that the sources exist to support this list. Per WP:NEXIST we don't need to judge this list based on the sources currently in it. I see no reason that improvements can't continue in the normal way in article space.

Here is the previous discussion that nominator is referring to. Moritoriko (talk) 00:45, 21 August 2025 (UTC)

  • Keep as a topic, but the article needs to be greatly expanded. The topic of a comparison between DDC and LCC is very common in the field of library science. A quick search through TWL got me this paper that compares teaching both systems, this paper (abstract only) that compares both systems in the context of African literature, another article comparing them in the context of movies, this paper (abstract only) compares them from a technical context that I am not equipped to understand fully, another very old article (first page only) about classification systems, a treatment of speech in three catalogue systems (first page only), and finally a doctoral thesis about the preference between the systems. I think there is a great amount that can be added to this article so the page itself is a keep. All articles listed here can be found in full through TWL. Moritoriko (talk) 01:46, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Museums and libraries and Lists. WCQuidditch 10:59, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Delete. The sources found by Moritoriko above look promising at a first glance, and they might be able to be used to write an article about a comparison between DDC and LOC (I'm not 100% convinced that such an article is needed instead of putting this information on the main pages themselves, but that's a separate issue, and I'm probably fairly ambivalent about it overall). But, the article that was nominated isn't that article. Despite the name, this is merely a conversion from DDC number to LOC number, and nothing else. So if you want to write an article about an actual comparison, I'd say go right ahead, but in that case, this one should still be deleted first to make way for the new one. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 13:41, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
    The reason why this article should exist, separate from smaller sections on their respective pages, is because they are the two largest systems in use in the US (and maybe the world?) and they are often compared as you can see in most of the sources. Delete votes should be reserved for when the article subject cannot be reasonably turned into an article, despite what the current content is. Delete per TNT is for when even the history of the page is so bad that it should be wiped from the site and that is not the case here, I hope you would agree. Moritoriko (talk) 15:35, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
    Again, I'm pretty ambivalent on whether to make your proposal a separate article or include it at the main pages; either way is probably fine. However, this article, as it stands, should still be deleted, because the topic of the article, as it stands (and always has stood), isn't notable. That the title appears to represent a notable topic is irrelevant here, because the current article is mis-titled. If you want to go step-by-step here, what should really happen is that this article should be renamed to something like "Table of conversions of Dewey Decimal numbers to Library of Congress numbers" (or whatever), then it should get deleted, and anyone would be free to write a proper comparison article in the mean time. But that's just extra hassle, and you probably wouldn't be bothering to advocate keeping in in that case. TNT absolutely does apply, because there's nothing salvageable here, and what you're proposing is essentially completely unrelated. Let's just delete what's here, and then a new article can be written instead (either at the exact same name, or a slightly different one, or content can be added to the main articles, or whatever). 35.139.154.158 (talk) 23:57, 21 August 2025 (UTC)
    Your recommendation goes against the guideline to make a determination based on an article's potential, rather than its current status. If the topic is worth bringing back at a later date, then it should be retained until it can be improved. @Moritoriko just found the tip of potential sources; this topic covers a main principle of librarianship and is covered in many books and scholarly articles. In addition, this information is taught to many college freshmen as part of their orientation to the campus library. Rublamb (talk) 01:54, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep: Per WP:HEY. I expanded the lede, added sources, and converted the list of sources into inline citations. There are now numerous reliable sources that discuss the comparison of the two classification systems, meeting the notability requirement for a stand-alone list article. (the main sources for the table are listed in the paragraph before the table). I am confident there are more sources in professional journals and books, meaning this article can continue to be improved. 01:23, 22 August 2025 (UTC)Rublamb (talk) 01:25, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep: This topic is notable and meets WP:N and I see many secondary sources. It needs cleanup and as suggested it can be improved. Asteramellus (talk) 20:31, 22 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Draftify per WP:ATD and WP:NOTESSAY. Currently this article reads like an essay. The statements being made in wiki voice appear to be subjective opinions which need in text attribution. However, this is a surmountable problem that can be solved through editing. It appears the sourcing in this area passes WP:SIGCOV so there isn't a notability reason to delete this. I think the best thing to do is send this to draft and require it to go through WP:AFC where work can be done to solve the issue of essay type writing through editing. In its current state it isn't ready for main space.4meter4 (talk) 15:37, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
    For this AfD, I expanded the article's lede using reliable secondary sources. This was needed to help establish the subject's notability and to provide context for the list that follows. Yes, the text compares the two cataloging systems; however, that is the purpose of this article. The statements that you are interpreting as "opinion" are factual representations of numerous sources and have citations. As there are no quotes and all text has a citation, attribution is not needed. Rublamb (talk) 19:53, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
That may be, but they still require in-text attribution (ie who is saying it/making the claim) otherwise it reads like an essay. There are many large libraries that don't use LOC classification so the assertion is not necessarily widely accepted. Best.4meter4 (talk) 21:07, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
Sounds like you are analyzing the article based on your personal experiences, rather than the sources. Regardless, the text says DDC and LC are the most commonly used cataloging systems and makes no claims about all libraries. It says that LC works better for larger libraries, not that all large or academic libraries use it. In fact, it specifically says LC's use is mostly limited to the US and Canada, which leaves a ton of colleges and universities out that using a different system. The reason attribution is not needed is that these are accepted facts. LC was designed to solve cataloging problems in large and highly specialized collections. For example, every book in a university physics library would have the same call number in DDC, while LC has a range on alpha-numeric call numbers for the same subject, making it easier to find materials. Users who want to learn more can simply follow the link to the articles on these two systems. Rublamb (talk) 22:26, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
LLC isn't widely used outside of North America and we are a global encyclopedia. Hence the need for attribution and source discussing this outside of American and Canadian publications.4meter4 (talk) 00:18, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
I would like to see a source for that fact because I have found sources showing its use outside of North America.[27][28] It should be noted that even if these two classification systems were only used in Washington DC the amount of research and commentary on the comparison between the two systems is enough for there to be an article on this topic. Moritoriko (talk) 01:04, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
That's literally what our article currently says in the opening paragraph with a citation.4meter4 (talk) 01:41, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

Two sentence page on a computer code with no obvious notability, fails WP:NSOFT. Notability was tagged in 2012; PROD, PROD2 Aug 12-13 2025, at that time the page had no sources. Notability was contested with the claim "Further easy-to-read articles are available using Google Scholar", and PROD/PROD2 removed. Contestor added one source that is not specific to the topic -- it describes a code comparison, not the code. That source is cited 2 times. The current article is advertising/promo for the code and the authors, and would be better included as a sentence in Neutron transport#Computational methods. If major WP:HEY is done to show that this code has major uses in ongoing reactor design I would retract the nomination. I do not see sufficient coverage on Google Scholar to merit retaining it.

  • Comment - responding to Ldm1954's comments:
First, my "further easy-to-read articles are available using Google Scholar" comment was meant to be humorous; a quick look at the neutron transport equation shows neutron flux calculations are mathematically vexatious which is why multiple computer codes have been developed. At least they sure were vexatious to me many years ago.
I don't know if this code is used much now for reactor design; high-temperature gas-cooled reactors are not a hot research area now compared to other reactor types. There's just one HGTR design, the Xe-100, among the several dozen new reactor designs under development. All the papers that use this code were published a while ago when computers were slower; I'd hope HGTR engineers are using something newer nowadays. That said, our rules don't require this code be in wide use now to be notable; if something was once notable, it still is now.
The paper I cited[29] is relevant; it compares this code to a newer code. This and other papers[30][31][32][33] demonstrate this was a widely used program.
I don't have a dog in this fight; I just look at the article, the AfD and the information that's out there and check them against our rules.
All this said, I concede not in the same league technically as Ldm1954 (Laurence D. Marks) so I may be wrong about this one. It took a lot of work to understand neutron transport years ago and I've forgotten the details since. --A. B. (talkcontribsglobal count) 03:36, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
@A. B., as a quick clarification, this page was tagged for both notability and no sources since at least 2013. You removed the notability tag on August 13 2025, so WP:NOTTEMPORARY does not apply here. Checking the 4 sources you provided, on Google Scholar their citation numbers are 8, 5, 5, 8. Sorry, but those numbers are not strong indicators that the scientific community has considered this code to be notable. Ldm1954 (talk) 08:37, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
Addendum: to be fully WP:NPOV, a Google Scholar search on TINTE code does find a few better cited papers, including this one with 95 cites. However, that is not a big number. It can be compared to MCNP where the main paper has 3697 cites. Ldm1954 (talk) 09:05, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

@Liz, thanks for the compliment about my wiki-savvy; if only I was still as nuclear engineering savvy, I'd be more helpful. My comment was not a keep but rather a clarifying response to Ldm1954's remarks about my PROD removal. I've since found a book on high temperature gas reactors that uses TINTE and I'm going to study it. For now, I'm inclined to say TINTE qualifies as notable but from an editorial standpoint, we may be better served putting it in the list at Neutron transport#Computer codes used in neutron transport, then redirecting it there. I like redirects and lists since they help densify our content for easier maintenance without giving up much content. I realize this is still not an answer for you but it's where I'm at now.--A. B.

This appears to be a neighborhood on the north side of Crawfordsville which may have been built separately and then annexed. The only source that appeared to have much info on it didn't allow me to see enough to fully understand it. There was a school here which apparently came first, but again I can't tell that for sure.

  • Delete I'm not impressed by the new source, which states the area was annexed into Crawfordsville and literally nothing else. Incorporation is not enough for notability; the rule is that "populated, legally-recognized places are presumed notable". We still have to have something to say about the place; just saying it was incorporated and sat at X ___location is little more than clutter. I've been wrong about these deletions before so if more sources are found ping me.

Largely trivial coverage in sources (RS or otherwise), fails WP:SIGCOV for notability esecially for a racial slur like this. The exact article (with the same sources) has been repeatedly created from a redirect by the singular WP:LTA sock network Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/SheryOfficial ([36], [37], [38], [39]) whose intentions have been nothing more than racist trolling ([40], [41]). The article itself has only served as a racist troll magnet whenever it has been repeatedly created ([42], [43], [44], [45], [46], [47], [48], [49], [50], [51]).

Coming to the sources (currently/previously at the article/Talk):

We ultimately have very few RS which cover the term in any significant capacity, a standalone article as such cannot really be justified (nothing which can't be/isn't already covered at List of ethnic slurs). The slur is no different from more older ones (e.g. 1, e.g. 2) whose standalone articles we do not feature for similar reasons. Gotitbro (talk) 08:56, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Discrimination, Ethnic groups, Hinduism, Sikhism, and India. Gotitbro (talk) 08:56, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep - Per nominator's own admission that this term finds non trivial coverage in multiple reliable sources such as the NCRI report on Hinduphobia, Institute for Strategic Dialogue, and DFRAC. These three sources provide in-depth coverage required for the article, see WP:THREE. Koshuri (あ!) 09:20, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    THREE is a personal essay (really the first time I am seeing it at AfD). Though I would like to clarify that I haven't listed DFRAC as RS nor have I listed ISD as non-trivial. That you have cited stable while restoring the largely socked version of the article is concerning. Gotitbro (talk) 10:09, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    WP:THREE is only to back my point that in most cases only three reliable sources with in-depth coverage are enough to prove notability. Your continued disparagement of the article's stable version as sock despite it being restored and responsibility for the content being taken by multiple editors in good standing is getting tendentious. Koshuri (あ!) 10:47, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    No one has taken "responsibility for the content", Altenmann initially restored the article [52]/[53] the article (also saying refs were a plenty which as can be seen were really just trivial bloat) and was clearly unaware of sock shenanigangs. The restoration was imediately challenged twice by different editors [54], [55] but ultimately restored again by you [56] telling editors to take it to AfD. None of this would be considered WP:STABLE. Why would you revert apparent sock cleanup is also beyond me.
    Coming to THREE, a user essay which has been neither satisfied nor a standalone article based on these justified. Nothing we can't handle at the pre-existing list. Gotitbro (talk) 11:46, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep Highly notable term as per the sources mentioned above. Raymond3023 (talk) 10:58, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Redirect to List of ethnic slurs#P or Delete (in that order of preference) There is currently no scholarly source at all that discusses the subject. Coverage so far is limited to mostly low-quality sources. There is also precedence per "curry-m*ncher" being redirect to the list article and "d*t head" not existing. The fact that article was written primarily by a sock-farm (with seven year long history of socking), who misrepresented even the already questionable sources and quickly added the slur to a WP:BLP only shows the bad-faith disruption. The tendency of some editors to prefer that source-misrepresented sock version is also beyond me. Given the obsessive preoccupation that the longtime sock has with the slur, I expect a visit by him here as well eventually. --UnpetitproleX (talk) 12:44, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    There is no requirement that sourcing must be scholarly for establishing the notability of a term, regardless there is enough scholarly coverage for this article . "Curry muncher" and "dothead" are little known and were never used widely unlike the term "Pajeet". So quoting them as "precedence" is a non argument. The rest of your argument is nothing more than the same disparagement of the article for being created by a sock and bad faith assumptions. Koshuri (あ!) 14:07, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    Of course, scholarly sources are not necessary for notability (the subject fails notability regardless of the lack of any meaningful scholarship on it) but scholarly sources give the most reliable information, which the article and indeed the term currently largely lacks. As for curry-m*ncher being "little known and were never used widely unlike the term Pajeet", that is simply false. For one, we have multiple scholarly sources for it: Tom Dalzell; Terry Victor, eds. (2006), The New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English, Routledge, p. 534; Virtual Homelands: Indian Immigrants and Online Cultures in the United States, University of Illinois Press, 2014, p. 29; Anne Collett; Leigh Dale, eds. (2018), Postcolonial Past & Present, BRILL, p. 174 and many, many more scholarly as well as literary usages. Asserting otherwise is stretching the limits of WP:OR, which unsurprisingly is also what the sock version of the article mostly was. We don't reward specific slur-obsessed socks by going against precedence and sourcing guidelines. UnpetitproleX (talk) 15:16, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep: We have similar articles like Paki (slur), American-born confused desi, etc more. Pajeet is a popular term across social media and sources are well notable (per argument by other Keep votes). But I agree this article must be improved and rephrased to Good Faith.. It shouldn't be used for trolling as like the sock editor. The current version seems stable enough but the more good faith & neutral, the more better to keep the article. WinKyaw (talk) 14:23, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    The former is well attested in RS [per its article], the latter is not a slur (and also well attested). "Popular term across social media" raises questions on the kind of social media being referred to [we are not documentation hub for 4chan and X bigots] rather than as a rationale for notability. Gotitbro (talk) 15:58, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    Well here in this category, I see lots of similar articles. Nothing much wrong with this being existing. And popular term across social media is for all medias especially Facebook, Instagram, X & so on.
    Mainly I think if Pallywood, Locust (ethnic slur), Polaco (slur), Wetback (slur), etc can exist, there's nothing wrong with this article too! WinKyaw (talk) 17:03, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

Does not meet WP:GNG; sourcing insufficient and non-independent. EmilyR34 (talk) 06:42, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

Hi EmilyR34, Thank you for reviewing this article and sharing your concerns. I understand the importance of ensuring that biographies meet WP:GNG and are supported by independent, reliable sources. With that in mind, I’d like to point out some of the coverage that, in my view, establishes notability for the subject:
  • Keep – Respectfully disagree with the concern about insufficient sourcing. Multiple independent, reliable sources provide significant coverage:
    • The Tribune (24 April 2025) ran a feature profile on Marichi Ventures and Singh’s leadership philosophy, which goes beyond a passing mention.
    • The Economic Times (27 June 2024) covered his recognition at the ET Excellence Awards, establishing notability at a national level.
    • Express Pharma (5 June 2019) listed him as a featured speaker at a DIA India conference, showing industry recognition.
Together, these demonstrate WP:GNG is satisfied. Additional coverage from FTCCI and Kalkine Media further supports verifiability. AbhiTron143977 (talk) 08:10, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
  • The Tribune coverage is very thin and tells us very little about the subject. This is not significant coverage.
  • Economic Times clearly says the article is "advertorial" and is not independent.
  • Express Pharma is a short mention of the subject that does not meet the definition of significant coverage.

thank you for your feedback pacific depths, do you have any suggestions for me, i don't want this page to be deleted, i do acknowledge the fact that some of the existing sources are advertorial or limited in depth, i am currently searching for strong independent coverage such as national newspaper or business magazines to strengthen the article. can a redirect to Marichi Ventures be a better alternative if such coverage cannot be demonstrated, I'm open to any suggestions. AbhiTron143977 (talk) 11:38, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
hello pacific depths, I’ve been able to add stronger references from independent institutions, like PHUSE (the world’s largest healthcare data science non-profit) published Singh’s reflections on his work as Asia-Pacific Director, and the Indian Institute of Population Sciences reported in detail on a pre-placement talk he delivered as Novartis Head of Strategy & Operations and PHUSE board member. I understand that not every source will count as “significant coverage,” but I believe these additions show recognition by independent and credible bodies, not just company PR. I also want to be transparent:- I do have a connection here, but I’m trying to stick to verifiable, reliable sources so the article stands or falls on policy grounds, not promotion. If this is still not enough for a standalone page, then, I’m open to a redirect to Marichi Ventures, so the information is preserved in context. AbhiTron143977 (talk) 12:47, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
  • Delete. Agree that this does not meet WP:GNG. The sources mentioned are of low quality. For example, the Economic Times article is actually marked as 'advertorial'; The Tribune feature reads like the information was provided by Marichi Ventures; and although I cannot read the Kalkine Media piece, its headline matches the Abluva Inc press release exactly, so it is most likely to be a reprint of that, rather than genuine reporting. Mark Gould (talk) 09:49, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    Thank you for the feedback Mark Goud. I do agree that the article published in the Economic Times is advertorial in nature and not so independent, and i also with your apprehension that the article in the Tribune could sound promotional, and that the reprinting of the press release is most likely to be that of Kalkine Media. Still, some independent coverage is worth mentioning: e.g., that in June 2019, Singh was listed by "Express Pharma" as a featured speaker at the DIA India conference, and appears in the Leadership Development Program faculty of FTCCI. Although I know that these probably are not sufficient to meet the full requirements of WP:GNG, I am still searching more of them. AbhiTron143977 (talk) 11:43, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    hello mark, i've been able to add stronger references from independent institutions like PHUSE and Indian Institute of population Sciences reported in detail. please check the article and please tell me if its enough, if not, i'm open to any suggestions AbhiTron143977 (talk) 12:50, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
    I appreciate the hard work you are putting into this, Abhiram. However, the additional sources still don't persuade me that Singh is notable beyond being exceptionally good at his job. Nothing we have seen so far suggests that he meets any of the three criteria in WP:ANYBIO. Mark Gould (talk) 15:41, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

This article, while probably proddable, is intimately related to the Citicasters tower, so it belongs here with it. It also is even more cryptic than the Citicasters one. You'll learn more about this tower from my description here than you will from reading this article. It was built in 1979 for WTSP, which is the logical place for any information about it. Fybush indicates it was indeed dismantled, which makes sense, because WTSP moved sites upon the digital TV transition. (Also, ASR records agree on it being dismantled.) This article helps nobody. It is poorly named after an obscure license subsidiary of then-Gannett, now-Tegna (one that has been replaced with Tegna East Coast Broadcasting); provides no indication of the use of this tower; and has no standalone notability. Our readers are better served finding tower information in WTSP. Sammi Brie (she/her · t · c) 06:41, 21 August 2025 (UTC)

It does not currently meet the notability criteria of WP:ORG and it is too new to demonstrate sustained notability - The9Man Talk 07:47, 14 August 2025 (UTC)

Granted, the sources, while can be argued to be reliable, independent and secondary, are Slovenian-based (even if in English). It also gets covered in China-CEE ([65]), but together with other new Slovenian parties (and I am not sure about the nature of the source). And the party's results in opinion polls are not impressive. This is why my keep is "weak", but I think the party passes the notability threshold, even if barely.

The article currently only has one citation that being a non-independent WP:PRIMARYSOURCE to the album's record label Armada Music. [66]

I searched Google News to see if there were any WP:INDEPENDENT, reliable sources that have significant coverage on the album (Note that Google Books and Scholar brought up nothing when I searched for this album).

This radio tower in Florida is dreadfully non-notable. The search term is extremely unlikely to result in hits, even though in my experience it's not unheard of that old station owners' names live on as tower shorthand. The only source I can find on this tower is Scott Fybush here (it was the WXTB tower), and while usually reliable, a short mention does not contribute to notability. A search in FCC antenna registrations for this mast indicates the tower was dismantled in 2013. Its replacement is ASR 1246632. Article was deprodded in 2019 but more on procedural grounds.

  • Neutral. She does get coverage in Bangladeshi mainstream press, such as this interview in The Daily Star.

There does not appear to be any significant coverage nor any coverage of her as an architect either. I can't review the book source but it is only one source and assuming that the article accurately represents her coverage then it falls below SIGCOV. It almost feels like an A7 given we have an article on an architect that fails to mention any architectural wok. Traumnovelle (talk) 03:47, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

In a month's time (20th September), there's an edit-a-thon being planned for NZ Women in Architecture, and one of the targeted articles for improvement is this one.
It's probably best to withdraw this AFD until after the edit-a-thon takes place, in case anything of value is uncovered then? Nil🥝 04:28, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
I don't think there is any plan to improve the page at the event (it mentions the article as an example of an existing article but says 'Our focus will be on enriching and creating pages related to Merle Greenwood, Dorothy Wills, Mary Dorothy Edwards, Mary Hay, Marjorie Penty and Nancy Northcroft.'), but if I am willing to delay/withdraw the AfD if someone does plan on taking a look at in within the near future. Traumnovelle (talk) 09:38, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
I am also not yet able to review the book, and I am unlikely to get to it before the end of next month. However, I have included what I could find from online secondary sources, and I am happy to continue searching and contributing. I have been able to find more about her work as an artist; unfortunately, it is probably not enough for SIGCOV yet. I note that she is now listed on the edit-a-thon page as Mary Clemens de Lisle (I think she was also listed under Mary Hay, her birth name), so I would second the Nil's suggestion of delaying until after that event, if possible.

This article fails WP:V and WP:GNG for lack of independent, reliable sources. One source is a press release from his employer and another is a brief, unbylined regurgitated version of the press release in a local Irish paper. The other two sources are WP:USERGENERATED posts on DailyKos ([72], [73]). And none of the sources remotely address the article's claims that O'Neill is a United Nations Human Rights Inspector and Economic Action Officer. Even if being a diplomat were inherently notable (it's not), there's no independent verification here or elsewhere search that O'Neill is a diplomat, and the organization he purports to represent is a federation of nine unrecognized self-proclaimed US indigenous groups. I found no qualifying coverage of O'Neill or this federation in my WP:BEFORE search. Dclemens1971 (talk) 03:47, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

This is an upcoming television series, and so is too soon for an article, and does not satisfy television notability. Nothing in this article describes the third-party significant coverage that is needed to establish general notability. This article was already draftified once, in 2024, so that another unilateral draftification would be move-warring. Draftification may be a valid close of this AFD, but there should be no subsequent move to article space until the series is broadcast and is reviewed.

Can find no sigcov, only citations to books they published. What brief coverage does exist is about 1 book they published, "50 Theses on the Expulsion of the Germans from Central and Eastern Europe 1944-1948", which should have an article because it was a big controversy, but not them.

My impression is that the article first of all needs an update. The publishing house has changed its legal form in 2022: It is no longer a "Limited" under English law but a "Unternehmergesellschaft (UB)" under German law, as can be seen on the company's website and also in German Wikipedia. Furthermore, this enterprise has published several further books; if also a new title in English should be checked, but obviously several books on linguistics with direct references to the history of the English language, including West Germanic. As to notability / relevance, some further research might be helpful. As far as I can see, several scientific/linguistic books of this publishing house have received reviews in renowned scientific journals. I can check this soon and suggest to keep this article until this is cleared.--DownUnder36 (talk) 07:22, 27 August 2025 (UTC)
@DownUnder36 That their books are notable has no relevance: the guideline is WP:NCORP, which requires multiple sources about them. PARAKANYAA (talk) 08:39, 27 August 2025 (UTC)

A character in the Busytown series. Previously kept in 2010, but the character has little sourcing, with all I could find largely being either mentions in a work analyzing Busytown and giving background summary, mentions in biographies or guidebooks, or mentions of the phrase "lowly worm". The two sentences of actual coverage can easily be put into the Busytown article, while the mention of the recall does not seem particularly relevant to Lowly Worm himself and moreso to a wider series-wide event. I do not see any reason this article needs to be kept separate when it can easily be covered alongside Busytown with greater benefit to the reader, in line with WP:NOPAGE.

That being said, the passage "Robert Drews has shown that in Geometric and Archaic Greece the title basileus could denote leaders with limited or magistrate-like powers rather than sovereign monarchs, and this interpretation may also apply to Aristophilides' position at Taras.[4] Under this view, Aristophilides' actions do not necessarily imply monarchy, but rather supreme executive power within the polis" also looks very much like WP:OR - taking a fact from Drews and making an "interpretation"/"view" regarding Aristophilides.
