2023-05-25 | One Dreamer (video game) (2022 video game) | AfD (2 k, 1 d) (I am not seeing the sources required for the title to pass WP:GNG. Kotaku is the only publication that mentioned it in a detailed manner, while Adventure Gamers is just an announcement posting. Well Played is not mentioned in WP:VG/S, others are unreliable. Per GNG, "Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability." An article with a single instance of SIGCOV is insufficient. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:16, 25 May 2023 (UTC)) |

2023-05-29 | Doomfist (Fictional character in the 2016 video game Overwatch) | AfD (4 k, 0 d) (Article reception primarily focused on discussing a fictional character in the sense of a gameplay element from the game they originated in. No indication that their gameplay gave them notability outside of the game itself, nor proper discussion of the character to provide SIGCOV. Attempting to find sources that were not about gameplay ended up fruitless as well. Kung Fu Man (talk) 02:55, 29 May 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-05-29 | Zameen.com (Online property portal in Pakistan) | AfD (5 k, 2 d) (Classic WP:MILL - there are many sources of poor quality, which do not count as reliable sources. The content is very promotional NortonAngo (talk) 15:23, 29 May 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-05-30 | Faust (Guilty Gear) (Fictional character) | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (The article contains again mostly listicles/rankings and passing mentions. The only useful source per WP:BEFORE was maybe this [1], thus still failing WP:GNG. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 00:30, 30 May 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-05-30 | Pumping Station: One (organization) | AfD (1 k, 2 d) (Fails WP:GNG. 16 of this article's 27 citations are from the website of the company itself, and the rest have little to no notability. Dawnbails (talk) 19:05, 30 May 2023 (UTC)) |

2023-05-31 | Ferratum (Payday lender) | AfD (1 k, 1 d) (Ferratum should be deleted or reduced to a stub. Almost all of the content contained in this article is not sourced or inappropriately sourced, and a proper cleanup based on available information from reliable sources would reduce it to a stub.
(1) This article contains many unreliable sources (WP:RS). (2) There are very few reliable sources that could potentially be added to clean this up. (3) This article is written like an advertisement and has struggled with populating sections with anything but promotional content since 2017. See Mean as custard's 16 and 24 July 2017 edits and Kimsey's 12 April 2019 edit. While WP:NPOV issues shouldn't be enough to warrant deletion, this article has very little room for improvement and has had the same unresolved issues for six years. (4) The company does not qualify for WP:N because it seems to lack significant sources independent of the subject. This might be a product of this being a Finnish (...or Maltese, depending on the source?) company. |
2023-05-31 | Jack McCullough (author) (American author and executive) | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (Article about a business executive that fails our WP:GNG and WP:INDEPTH criteria. The few reliable sources that are used as refs are just WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS of the subject. Possible WP:PROMO. Recommend WP:SALT. Jamiebuba (talk) 20:53, 31 May 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-05-31 | Soap MacTavish (Fictional character in the Call of Duty series) | AfD (0 k, 2 d) (Article shows no evidence of SIGCOV and cited reception does not provide notability for the character either. Cited sources are quick mentions at best, including one from TheGamer. It does have a previous AFD here, but was speedy closed due to poor nomination rationale. Kung Fu Man (talk) 21:08, 31 May 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-05-31 | Balthier (Fictional character in Final Fantasy) | AfD (3 k, 0 d) (Just like Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Soma Cruz, despite being a GA article, the sourcing standards have increased and the article clearly lacking WP:SIGCOV, and it contains mostly about the game itself not the character (at reception section). Again, GA criteria have no bearing on notability. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 23:14, 31 May 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-05-31 | Sportskeeda (Indian sports website founded in 2009) | AfD (6 k, 2 d) (1. livemint info from interview which makes the source not independent
2. exchange4media interview peice from the CEO of the company which makes the source unreliable. 3.gadgets360 - Just a sentence mentioned of the company. 4. the print - a press release article 5.timesofindia - advertising content of the company 6. the indus bussinessline - could not able to read the whole article, but the source covers only 5 areas - company, market, options, portfolio and economy and have member subscription - does not look reliable source to me.

2023-06-01 | The Several Journeys of Reemus (2008 video game) | AfD (0 k, 2 d) (Notability challenged since 2012. Sources appear to be mostly user-generated with no corresponding RS.

2023-06-01 | Project Colored Mountains (video game) (Upcoming platformer video game) | AfD (0 k, 6 d) (Not finding anything other than basic listings that do not contribute to notability. None of the four sources in the article contribute to notability. Pretty clear case of when to draftify, but that's been done and the creator immediately moved it back to mainspace, so another unilateral draftify would be a poor idea. (The creator has a declared COI.) I think the only option left is an AFD. Skarmory (talk • contribs) 02:41, 1 June 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-06-02 | Headcrab (Fictional creature of the Half-Life video game series) | AfD (2 k, 0 d) (This article fails WP:GNG and has been neglected for decade. I cannot find WP:SIGCOV especially scholarly books about this species. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 12:42, 2 June 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-06-02 | SKP Zayn (Srk Zayn is a YouTuber, Internet personality) | AfD (0 k, 2 d) (This article about a non-notable YouTuber started off as a redirect, was nominated for discussion, turned into an article mid-discussion, WP:PRODed, and de-PRODed—but still fails to meet WP:BIO. The citations in the article appear to refer to a different, similarly-named person and a separate YouTube channel. - Eureka Lott 18:41, 2 June 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-06-02 | Momiji (Ninja Gaiden) (Video game character from the Ninja Gaiden series) | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (Article's entire reception section is quite literally nothing but listicles, failing SIGCOV and showing no signs of notability on its own. It's basically a typical Niemti article, just with even less meat on the bone. Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:39, 2 June 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-06-02 | Invidious (Free and open-source YouTube frontend) | AfD (3 k, 2 d) (Does not appear to meet WP:GNG, non-primary coverage appears limited to tech blogs of dubious reliability and listicles. signed, Rosguill talk 21:03, 2 June 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-06-03 | Vaan (Final Fantasy) (Fictional character in Final Fantasy) | AfD (3 k, 0 d) (Just like other GA article Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Soma Cruz, despite being a GA, the sourcing standards have increased and the article clearly lacking WP:SIGCOV. It contains mostly about the game itself and were mostly passing mentions for Vaan (at reception section). Again, GA criteria have no bearing on notability. One source [2] appears to be talking Vaan but might be trivia. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 02:20, 3 June 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-06-03 | Stips (Israeli website) (An Israeli question-and-answer website) | AfD (0 k, 1 d) (Fails WP:GNG, as the sources are either passing references or are not independent of the subject.

2023-06-04 | Nabela Noor (Bangladeshi American entrepreneur) | AfD (2 k, 0 d) (Appears non-notable. The BBC is simply a link to an image of the individual in context of another program, the Rolling Stone article is ok-ish, but brief.

2023-06-04 | Manager Hasan's World Tales (Edutainment children’s web series) | AfD (0 k, 3 d) (YouTube educational series but without any significant coverage cited, moved out of draft space by creator without any valid sources. YouTube series are not automatically notable as anyone can make one. In my own WP:BEFORE search, I was also completely unable to find any decent coverage of this series. At best, seems to be WP:TOOSOON as there is no apparent media coverage yet. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 09:05, 4 June 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-06-05 | Random Encounters (Family-friendly musical makers associated with video games) | AfD (0 k, 1 d) (PROD removed as I was told to "consider potential notablity of other subjects that redirect here", but I don't see how that effects the notability of this page. There are three redirects here (AJ Pinkerton, CG5 (YouTuber), and NateWantsToBattle), but if none of those are notable enough for their own pages (though Nate might be given the coverage his music has been getting lately) then surely they aren't notable enough to get profiles on an article that itself isn't notable. And as I said in my PROD, I see no apparent claim to notability here. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 00:42, 5 June 2023 (UTC)) |

2023-06-05 | Jason case (2018 killing of cat streamed live on YouTube) | AfD (0 k, 3 d) (This was a sensational incident that got a brief burst of coverage in late December 2018, but there appears to have been no followup coverage, failing WP:PERSISTENCE and WP:NOTNEWS.

2023-06-05 | 198 (number) (Natural number) | AfD (6 k, 3 d) (Nothing has really changed since Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/198 (number) (March 2022) and Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2023 April 9. User:Robert McClenon promoted this from draft space over significant objections from participants in those discussions. There still are not multiple properties of any mathematical significance for this number (companion Pell number might count, but that is only one property and doesn't even have its own separate article), and no in-depth coverage of this number in any reliable sources (its coverage in OEIS is merely as one among many other numbers in several unimportant database entries). The article has been crammed with even more junk trivia factoids than the version from the AfD, saving it from G4 speedy deletion, but that does not make it notable. Note that the draft discussion also debunked the claim that there was ever a consensus for the statement in Wikipedia:WikiProject Numbers that we should automatically include all numbers up to 200. Without in-depth coverage of this specific number in any reliable source, this does not pass WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:40, 5 June 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-06-05 | David Gerard (author) (Australian author and Wikipedian) | AfD (1 k, 1 d) (None of the sources are about him as a person and I can not find any which do.

2023-06-06 | World Trade Center in popular culture (World Trade Center depicted in popular culture) | AfD (1 k, 0 d) (Trivial list of appearances and what-have-yous. Maybe refine to “impact of 9/11 on popular culture (or redirect if that already exists)” but even then a comic in 2004 featuring the attacks is getting into “historical event” territory, not contemporary impact.

2023-06-07 | TaxProf Blog | AfD (1 k, 1 d) (The page fails WP:GNG.
References check: 1. No “Tax Prof Blog” name is found on page 114 (where it is supposed to be). Even if it is there, it is definitely just mentioned and doesn’t contribute to notability. 2. Very short mention – no in-depth coverage. 3. There is not even a mention of TaxProf Blog on page 8 of the book. 4. I wasn’t able to verify this book. 5. Seems to be just one name among 100 in the list of blogs. Doesn’t contribute to Wikipedia notability. 6. A short paragraph – not in-depth coverage. 7.

2023-06-07 | Urien (Street Fighter) (Street Fighter character) | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (The main problem with the article is there is next to no reception about him as a character, and none that passes any amount of SIGCOV. There is discussion of his gameplay but the vast majority relates to his appearance in Street Fighter V and does not illustrate it in a manner of importance outside of the game itself. Discussions of gameplay at a professional level does not grant notability in and of itself given how frequent such discussions are in this era of eSports. Main argument is that as a result it fails GNG. Kung Fu Man (talk) 16:48, 7 June 2023 (UTC)) |

2023-05-31 | List of languages by writing system | AfD (0 k, 4 d) (WP:OR WP:SYNTH WP:UNSOURCED. Any language can be written in any writing system, many languages have in fact historically been written in multiple scripts, and even today – as we speak (or, I guess, as we write) – some languages are currently being written in multiple scripts (Serbo-Croatian, Kazakh language, Uzbek language, Japanese language, Berber languages; it looks like Ukrainian language will also transition from Cyrillic to Latin after having approved an official transcription standard in April 2022 etc.). The only difference is that some scripts have been officially approved and used, while others have been unofficially used, each all to varying degrees. There is no way for writing systems to "claim" particular languages, nor the other way around. These are constantly changing, dynamic interrelationships. You can categorise Berber Latin alphabet as a Latin writing system (so a List of Latin-script alphabets is perfectly legitimate), but you cannot claim the Berber languages for any particular writing system. That's just not how it works. Cheers, Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 16:19, 31 May 2023 (UTC)) |
2023-06-02 | Zhilin (given name) (Name list) | AfD (1 k, 1 d) (At the suggestion of @Folly Mox:, I'm bundling this nom with Hongliang (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) and Zhilin (given name) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), which suffer from the same issues. Note for the latter that Rosamund Kwan's name, listed there, isn't even correct; she has a Cantonese name that is not romanized Zhilin.
I’m nominating this page for deletion today based primarily off of WP:GNG, lack of a coherent subject, and intractable WP:SYNTHESIS issues, the latter two of which can be folded into WP:TNT. This is eligible for deletion under these criteria as this is not a disambiguation page; it is a anthroponymic set index list per MOS:DABNAME, and as such must follow GNG and WP:NLIST. This fails NLIST on two counts; the first is that there is no substantial English-language coverage of the Baoshan given name. The second is that there is no one subject of Baoshan or of similar loci; this is why I discount any potential Chinese-language source. The main problem here is that romanizations of Chinese do not have one-to-one correspondence with Chinese characters. Also, a particular romanization X may also appear in a different romanization, but instead representing a different sound; this is all before we take tones into account. We might also note that Chinese is not one language; it is better described as the Sinitic language family (Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien, etc.), and every character is pronounced differently and thus romanized differently even if thttps://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Baoshan_(given_name)&action=edithe character itself is identical. Indeed, all the articles listed here have different Baoshan transliteration origins. As another analog, take common Chinese surnames; note common overlap in the end state of romanizations between romanization systems (the most common now are Hanyu Pinyin, Wade-Giles, and postal) and different languages of Sinitic. Any original language discussion of a particular given name, even in Chinese, would then be conflated with every other possible combination of romanizations, characters, and languages that would result in Baoshan. It is a many-to-many correspondence. As such, the content and premise of this page is a form of WP:SYNTHESIS. It combines multiple forms of two-character Chinese given names and all English Baoshan romanizations into one; reliable sources doing this do not exist so far as I can see. The similarity in Hanyu Pinyin romanization is an effect of how words are pronounced in Mandarin. Categorizing them into one English romanization is akin to fitting a square peg into a round hole; this is before we get into tone differences, which change meanings in and of themselves. There has been no previous project discussion on pages like this—given names with ambiguous romanizations and variations in English without one-to-one-correspondence—that I could find, and certainly not in WikiProject Anthroponymy or in Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/China- and Chinese-related articles. I’ll then address the criteria laid out in WP:CSC, mentioned in WP:SIA as a guideline, itself a sub-guideline of WP:SAL, itself a guideline and of course subordinate to GNG. This list plainly fails the “every entry in the list fails the notability criteria” and “short, complete lists of every item that is verifiably a member of the group” criteria, so what remains is “every entry meets the notability criteria for its own article in the English Wikipedia.” But then what is the list about? As established above, it’s about many things vaguely defined that don’t hold water in Sinitic or in English; they are not the same, and similarity occurs only in contrived English analogs. The article in its current state shows the lack of focus. Every instance of Baoshan originates from different written characters. Baoshan itself is not and cannot be notable. We wouldn't have an article regarding lists of people whose name is pronounced Baoshan, much less a list of people whose names are transliterated Baoshan by chance. Chinese given names are also used only by people close to the named; the situation where people would search for the given name only is unlikely. Then w.r.t. whatever significance Baoshan carries as a meaning--it is disrespectful in Chinese to name someone after someone else. Any name collision is purely coincidental. The premise of this article is flawed; this article ought to be deleted. Iseult Δx parlez moi 21:20, 1 June 2023 (UTC)) |

The principal notability claim here is that his book exists, which isn't automatically enough in and of itself in the absence of a demonstrable WP:GNG pass for it, but the sourcing isn't getting him over GNG: it consists of one short newspaper blurb from 1885 that verifies the existence of the book without even naming the author at all, and one newspaper article from 2008 that isn't substantively about Vincent Holt or the book, but just glancingly namechecks their existence in the process of being fundamentally about the concept of the same dietary practice that the book was about.

There's no other strong indicia of notability here; she's previously served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney, but as far as I know, US attorneys are not notable by virtue of that position, either, and certainly not assistant U.S. attorneys.

2023-05-26 | Angela Besharah (Canadian actress) | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (WP:BLP of an actress and director, not properly referenced as passing notability criteria for actresses or directors. As always, the notability test for a creative professional in film, television or theatre is not automatically passed just by verifying that she and her work exist, and instead requires analytical coverage to be paid to her and her work in media to establish that they've been externally validated as significant by people without a vested interest in her career. I've already removed 16 inadmissible footnotes to IMDb and Facebook or Instagram posts -- but even so, the article is still referenced mainly to bad sources that aren't support for notability at all, such as blogs, directory entries, the self-published production websites of shows or films she was in, the self-published websites of film festivals that films she was in were screened at, a Twitter tweet, and on and so forth. And even the stuff that does come from real reliable source media still largely isn't supporting her notability either -- for example, there's a source which verifies that somebody else got an Emmy nomination for his work in a miniseries that Besharah had a supporting part in, which has nothing to do with Besharah; and there are sources verifying that other films or TV shows she was in exist, but fail to mention Besharah's name in conjunction with them; and there are very brief glancing namechecks that mention her name without being about her in any non-trivial sense. Only one footnote in the entire article (#22, "Go-for-broke performances drive Sarah Burgess's Dry Powder") actually represents a reliable source writing about Besharah's work in any substantive fashion, but one source isn't enough all by itself -- and even on a WP:BEFORE search for other sources, the most useful thing I found in ProQuest is the same article.

It's not hard to find newspaper articles and interviews; the subject is clearly the sort of person who aims to get interviewed and seen driving a big car[6].

2023-06-03 | Paul Lunde | AfD (1 k, 1 d) (Does not appear to meet WP:GNG; none of the provided citations offer independent coverage of Lunde, just works by Lunde. Searching the internet, Google Scholar, and my university library I was able to find two reviews of works by Lunde, [8] and [9], but which don't discuss Lunde himself or his role in the works at all. When considering the case for WP:NACADEMIC, both of the reviews I would describe as faint praise for the works, nor is there any evidence of a high h-index despite publishing extensively. One of Lunde's primary outlets has been Aramco World described as follows in an Indiana University paper [10]: As Aramco World approached its fiftieth anniversary in November 1999, a retrospective feature touted the cosmopolitan ethos of the publication in its very founding, as it supposedly emerged from Aramco's culturally sensitive priorities. Presuming a fundamental chasm between US Americans and Saudis, the magazine sought: "to bridge the natural but enormous cultural gaps between its expatriate, largely American, workers and their Saudi counterparts and hosts … "7 Founded in 1949 in New York, Aramco World was modeled after other contemporaneous US publications like Life and Saturday Evening Post.8 In 1964, it shifted its publication headquarters from New York to Beirut, where it remained until the beginning of the Lebanese Civil War in 1975.9...n the case of Aramco World, for example, tight Saudi control of the magazine's contents remained in place (as it does to this day), even though the magazine was being produced in Lebanon to, in part, present an ostensibly localized and authentic—rather than propagandistic—picture of the region.12; -- in other words, at best a general interest magazine, at worst a propaganda venture.

The sources also briefly mention him only as a founder of one of businesses rather than significantly cover the founder and Survivor winner himself. Unsure whether producers' re-inviting him makes him notable as well; I doubt it. In summary, violates WP:BLP1E, and should be redirected to Survivor: Fiji.

His career as a gay pornographic actor does not appear to pass WP:NACTOR. Other sources in the article relate to Sanchez's journalism, which are either articles Sanchez wrote or only mention him in passing or not at all, which does not indicate notability.

To expand on the summary, the page was created by copying a series of chunks of text from other pages, [14], [15], [16], [17] and [18]. These have been used to synthesise a subject, the Welsh crown jewels, that does not exist as a subject. No one talks about these items as being the Welsh crown jewels and no secondary source on this page even attempts to establish that as the title subject. WP:BEFORE does show that the term can be used to discuss the honours of the principality of Wales [19], [20], [21], [22] used for the investiture of the prince of Wales, but this page is not about those.

As always, the notability test for a creative professional in film, television or theatre is not automatically passed just by verifying that she and her work exist, and instead requires analytical coverage to be paid to her and her work in media to establish that they've been externally validated as significant by people without a vested interest in her career. I've already removed 16 inadmissible footnotes to IMDb and Facebook or Instagram posts -- but even so, the article is still referenced mainly to bad sources that aren't support for notability at all, such as blogs, directory entries, the self-published production websites of shows or films she was in, the self-published websites of film festivals that films she was in were screened at, a Twitter tweet, and on and so forth. And even the stuff that does come from real reliable source media still largely isn't supporting her notability either -- for example, there's a source which verifies that somebody else got an Emmy nomination for his work in a miniseries that Besharah had a supporting part in, which has nothing to do with Besharah; and there are sources verifying that other films or TV shows she was in exist, but fail to mention Besharah's name in conjunction with them; and there are very brief glancing namechecks that mention her name without being about her in any non-trivial sense. Only one footnote in the entire article (#22, "Go-for-broke performances drive Sarah Burgess's Dry Powder") actually represents a reliable source writing about Besharah's work in any substantive fashion, but one source isn't enough all by itself -- and even on a WP:BEFORE search for other sources, the most useful thing I found in ProQuest is the same article. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to be the subject of more proper coverage and analysis about her and her work in real media than this.

2023-06-06 | Matt Sanchez (American journalist (born 1970)) | AfD (0 k, 1 d) (This person is apparently deceased per [28], but there is no coverage of this in reliable sources. Looking at the sourcing more broadly, this appears to be a WP:BIO1E, with all reliable source coverage that is specifically about Sanchez being confined to coverage in March 2007 of the exposure of his prior career as a gay pornographic actor and his alleged wrongful solicitation of funds. His career as a gay pornographic actor does not appear to pass WP:NACTOR. Other sources in the article relate to Sanchez's journalism, which are either articles Sanchez wrote or only mention him in passing or not at all, which does not indicate notability. His activism at Columbia University is only covered by the local student newspaper, which doesn't indicate notability either.
The last deletion nomination was in 2008, and the discussions were in my opinion low quality, so I think this new nomination is justified. In the 2008 nom it was mentioned that Sanchez requested the article be deleted, though its obviously impossible to know if he later changed his mind in the decade afterwards.

AfD date | Article | AfD nomination |
---|---|---|
2023-06-01 | List of Cheyenne broadcast translators | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (Strange article without an obvious purpose or precedent. This consists entirely of a list of broadcast relay stations (i.e. transmitters that rebroadcast another signal instead of originating their own programming) in one individual media market which then proceeds to link to the stations that actually provide the programming — with the added bonus that the article explicitly states that the boundaries of the market have been subjectively chosen to include some outlying areas and exclude other outlying areas for no obvious, objective or reliably sourced reason. Basically this seems to exist as a content fork of Media in Cheyenne, Wyoming, meant entirely to provide an alternative view that the market includes Laramie and excludes Scottsbluff, without sourcing to actually support that view, even though the main article says the exact opposite. And indeed, no article anywhere in Wikipedia links to this at all (its only inbound is a redirect from another variant of the same title), because any possible link to any of the radio stations can always just go directly to the station itself rather than having to two-step its way through this. No other city anywhere in the United States (or the world) has a "List of City broadcast translators" as a separate topic from its "Media in City", and there's no real indication here of why Cheyenne's translators would need special treatment that other cities' translators aren't getting.

While WP:NPOV issues shouldn't be enough to warrant deletion, this article has very little room for improvement and has had the same unresolved issues for six years.

There still are not multiple properties of any mathematical significance for this number (companion Pell number might count, but that is only one property and doesn't even have its own separate article), and no in-depth coverage of this number in any reliable sources (its coverage in OEIS is merely as one among many other numbers in several unimportant database entries). The article has been crammed with even more junk trivia factoids than the version from the AfD, saving it from G4 speedy deletion, but that does not make it notable. Note that the draft discussion also debunked the claim that there was ever a consensus for the statement in Wikipedia:WikiProject Numbers that we should automatically include all numbers up to 200.

There are three redirects here (AJ Pinkerton, CG5 (YouTuber), and NateWantsToBattle), but if none of those are notable enough for their own pages (though Nate might be given the coverage his music has been getting lately) then surely they aren't notable enough to get profiles on an article that itself isn't notable.

2023-06-07 | Urien (Street Fighter) (Street Fighter character) | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (The main problem with the article is there is next to no reception about him as a character, and none that passes any amount of SIGCOV. There is discussion of his gameplay but the vast majority relates to his appearance in Street Fighter V and does not illustrate it in a manner of importance outside of the game itself. Discussions of gameplay at a professional level does not grant notability in and of itself given how frequent such discussions are in this era of eSports.

The only given source is a book A guide to Hinduism by an author C. M. Faren, but there exists no information on book nor author, that does not clearly derive from this article. One would further assume that a book with such title would be a general overview, and not mention such an obscure and insignificant myth as this one. The nail in the coffin here is that the original author of this article, @Frog on a log:, was permanently banned for being a "vandalism-only account", having created at least one other hoax article citing a made-up book.[4] Examning these things together, this article is clearly a HOAX, and, as it appears, the longest-lasting one discovered.

The maintenance tags are a decade old, raising rightful questions about the mass of online religious Q&A and primary source references that furnish much of this page. There is meanwhile precious little evidence that "Islam and children" is a serious standalone topic in secondary sources - certainly none of the sources listed in the bibliography are specifically geared towards the subject. More generally, the scope of the articles seems unusual and potentially misguided. Unusual because "X religion and children" is not an article type I see repeated anywhere else. Misguided because it pertains to social conventions, which have their agency at the level of any given society, e.g. a country or cultural group. Of the little, if any material that is supported/relevant, i.e. religious precepts around family life, there is none that would not be better supported at Islamic family jurisprudence, so I would say delete or merge to that page.

Of course the subject's wishes are not the main consideration; if the subject is notable, the article should not be deleted. But fundamentally this is a piece of gossip, sourced to gossip. In summary: Prostitute conned a client out of an eyewatering amount of cash, got jailed and had a very small controversy over whether they should be paid for making a public health advert. It's not hard to find newspaper articles and interviews; the subject is clearly the sort of person who aims to get interviewed and seen driving a big car[40]. But these look to me like gossip-column stuff befitting the Daily Mail. Unsurprisingly, when I search for her British victim's name, the only UK news source seems to be the Daily Mail.

Most media coverage is trivial. It is a small family-business with a handful of locations in Canada. Most information about Osmow's comes from the company itself, or places like Narcity, which are only talking about their food promotions and not why this company is notable. There are fast food places like Shanghai 360 or Villa Madina, which are similar to this one and have a few locations in Canada, and they are not notable enough either (and don't have their own articles on Wikipedia). Therefore, I think that this article should be deleted due to a lack of notability. 747pilot (talk) 20:20, 17 May 2023 (UTC)) |

Per WP:USCJN#Magistrate judges and bankruptcy judges, "Magistrate judges... are not inherently notable, but holding such a position is evidence of notability that can be established by other strong indicia of notability."
There's no other strong indicia of notability here; she's previously served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney, but as far as I know, US attorneys are not notable by virtue of that position, either, and certainly not assistant U.S. attorneys. The article was PRODded by Snickers2686 with the comment Delete per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Margaret J.

She is not your "run of the mill" magistrate judge & is notable besides that one area of her career. She has recieved multiple awards as a history making person in the state of Texas. I agree with Snickers2686's comment, and by extension the comments put forth in support of deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Margaret J. Schneider, which isn't really distinguishable from this one. MIAJudges's response doesn't really address the lack of notability: yes, there are references that don't refer to Quiroga's magistrateship, but none of those references include anything that suggests notability; and the awards are not sufficiently distinctive.

2023-05-26 | Angela Besharah (Canadian actress) | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (WP:BLP of an actress and director, not properly referenced as passing notability criteria for actresses or directors. As always, the notability test for a creative professional in film, television or theatre is not automatically passed just by verifying that she and her work exist, and instead requires analytical coverage to be paid to her and her work in media to establish that they've been externally validated as significant by people without a vested interest in her career. I've already removed 16 inadmissible footnotes to IMDb and Facebook or Instagram posts -- but even so, the article is still referenced mainly to bad sources that aren't support for notability at all, such as blogs, directory entries, the self-published production websites of shows or films she was in, the self-published websites of film festivals that films she was in were screened at, a Twitter tweet, and on and so forth. And even the stuff that does come from real reliable source media still largely isn't supporting her notability either -- for example, there's a source which verifies that somebody else got an Emmy nomination for his work in a miniseries that Besharah had a supporting part in, which has nothing to do with Besharah; and there are sources verifying that other films or TV shows she was in exist, but fail to mention Besharah's name in conjunction with them; and there are very brief glancing namechecks that mention her name without being about her in any non-trivial sense. Only one footnote in the entire article (#22, "Go-for-broke performances drive Sarah Burgess's Dry Powder") actually represents a reliable source writing about Besharah's work in any substantive fashion, but one source isn't enough all by itself -- and even on a WP:BEFORE search for other sources, the most useful thing I found in ProQuest is the same article. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to be the subject of more proper coverage and analysis about her and her work in real media than this.

Looking at the sourcing more broadly, this appears to be a WP:BIO1E, with all reliable source coverage that is specifically about Sanchez being confined to coverage in March 2007 of the exposure of his prior career as a gay pornographic actor and his alleged wrongful solicitation of funds. His career as a gay pornographic actor does not appear to pass WP:NACTOR. Other sources in the article relate to Sanchez's journalism, which are either articles Sanchez wrote or only mention him in passing or not at all, which does not indicate notability. His activism at Columbia University is only covered by the local student newspaper, which doesn't indicate notability either.
The last deletion nomination was in 2008, and the discussions were in my opinion low quality, so I think this new nomination is justified. In the 2008 nom it was mentioned that Sanchez requested the article be deleted, though its obviously impossible to know if he later changed his mind in the decade afterwards.

Any language can be written in any writing system, many languages have in fact historically been written in multiple scripts, and even today – as we speak (or, I guess, as we write) – some languages are currently being written in multiple scripts (Serbo-Croatian, Kazakh language, Uzbek language, Japanese language, Berber languages; it looks like Ukrainian language will also transition from Cyrillic to Latin after having approved an official transcription standard in April 2022 etc.). The only difference is that some scripts have been officially approved and used, while others have been unofficially used, each all to varying degrees. There is no way for writing systems to "claim" particular languages, nor the other way around. These are constantly changing, dynamic interrelationships. You can categorise Berber Latin alphabet as a Latin writing system (so a List of Latin-script alphabets is perfectly legitimate), but you cannot claim the Berber languages for any particular writing system.
