A search for sources failed to turn up independent, in-depth, reliable coverage. There is no indication the label has had any impact on music genre or culture.

  • Delete. Almost everybody is important to their college, except middle management. Bearian (talk) 16:23, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Largely unsourced, reads more like an obituary or personal reflection than an encyclopedia article. Although there is sourcing for the subject, it appears to be entirely local and mostly through his employer, so not independent enough for WP:GNG notability. And although he was an academic, his work appears to have been mainly building things rather than scholarly publication, so WP:PROF isn't appropriate and isn't met. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:36, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:PROF -- I am unable to find any highly cited work that shows him an influence on his field. The only claim to notability is the Padma Shri, but this is a 4th level award, and if his career is representative, is routine for people in administrative positions.

There are many other individuals in medicine in the same situation-- see . I am nominating two other individual,s considering this and the adjacent AfDs as test cases. DGG ( talk ) 04:02, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:ANYBIO. Padma Shri is a fourth level civilian award in India, a country of over 1.35 billion people, and the total number of awardees is only 2840 people in its history of 65 years. The subject of the article is also famous as an institution builder which is mentioned in the article. The generally agreed norm is that if a subject satisfies one of the several criteria of notability, we keep the article in. Here, the subject satisfies WP:ANYBIO and applying another criterion is not called for. If we move along these lines, Wikipedia will become leaner by the day. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was a lawyer but if we apply WP:PROF on him, the article Mahatma Gandhi will not be there. Further, WP:PROF advises This guideline is independent from the other subject-specific notability guidelines, such as WP:BIO, WP:MUSIC, WP:AUTH etc. and is explicitly listed as an alternative to the general notability guideline. It is possible for an academic not to be notable under the provisions of this guideline but to be notable in some other way under the general notability guideline or one of the other subject-specific notability guidelines. --jojo@nthony (talk) 05:45, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep subject is notable. Padma Shri award is prestigious and given to notable people only.Krishna's flute (talk) 15:31, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I do not see any evidence for "institution builder" Contributing to the establishment of a single academic department is not institution building, as contrasted to being the principal person who founds a university . The question here is if Padma Shri is enough, and the fact that it is given for such little accomplishments as given here is eveidence to the contrary. The fact that it is awarded with the ref saying its for hispublications, when his publicationsare trivial shows the quality of the award cannot be assumed. DGG ( talk ) 05:34, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
He was instrumental in creating the department of gastroenterology at Patna Medical College and at Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences. Padma Shri was not awarded to him for his scientific publications but for his contributions, in general, in the field of Medicine in India. The argument, as you put it, is straightforward - whether Padma Shri is a notable award. The fourth highest civilian award of a country of 1.35 billion people, I guess, is notable. A point to note here is that the the recipients of the higher three awards, Padma Bhushan, Padma Vibhushan and Bharat Ratna, together count only 1609 since 1954.--jojo@nthony (talk) 06:05, 27 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify:Delete: (see end of paragraph): Article as currently stands and I'm not sure it can go much farther. I'm leaning delete because the article does not seem to evidence the notability of the subject to me at his point. I'm not at all brilliant on guidelines but I've tried. At WP:ANYBIO. The header above it says (my emphasis) "People are likely to be notable if they meet any of the following standards. Failure to meet these criteria is not conclusive proof that a subject should not be included; conversely, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included.". I'm try to compare with UK MBE/OBE/CBE/Knighthoods ... and in general my gut feeling an MBE would not get an article unless meeting in on other criteria (probably true for OBE and CBE also) whereas a Knighthood might. And I'm inclined to think also this likely ought to be the case for the fourth level Civilian award in India; albeit the population/award ratio is likely lower. In summary the article needs to strongly evidence why it is there and give context and possibly meet criteria on another basis. The article as to demonstrate this is in a meaningful way ... not just a like of date events and awards. If the person has written articles we need a Bibliography. Sourced must be protected again WP:LINKROT so they can be re-checked. There are glimspses the subject might be notable, but the article fails to impress that to me. And I am inclined to think the situation is similar for many on List of Padma Shri award recipients (2000–2009), perhaps my random selection of Jagan Nath Kaul (excluding the awards list and the nightmarish lack of inline citations) at least at first glance if not at second) is more the minimum sort of article we ought to be trying to achieve in my view. Despite the way I may discuss these articles let it not detract from the honour of these people and I hope I have not inadvertently caused offence. Personal nobility does not correlate with Wikipedia notability. Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 14:27, 27 November 2019 (UTC).[reply]
I've switched to Draftify as there a possibilities an article may be possible but I dont believe the current sources as presented warrant it and perhaps equally I'm not seeing enough content in the article itself. Take away the awards and there's nothing left in the article. I'm concerned about stubs being presented leaving it for others to fix. thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 21:09, 2 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the change Djm-leighpark. An article can remain a stub or start class. Being a stub is not a reason to delete. It will eventually expand. Draftify should be selected if there are volunteers willing to work on it or else it will get deleted in 6 months any way. Our focus here on AfD should be to gauge to notability and comment on the basis of it. If it is notable, there is no reason why it cannot remain as a stub or start until it can be expanded. --DBigXray 21:52, 2 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The fourth level Padma award, especially for Indians, does not mean a thing. It can be given for all sorts of political connections. Other than an incidental mention in an article about someone else, which is hardly an example of a reliable source, let alone a scholarly source that would be par for the course for an academic, there is nothing by way of the usual criteria by which WP accords notability. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 22:44, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Let us leave out politics, political connections can earn one laurels in many countries, let alone India. The opening statement also appears to be far-fetched. Being an Indian I can safely argue that Padma awards are considered in high esteem in India.--jojo@nthony (talk) 14:19, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
What my reasoning means is that other than a mention of the Padma award, which is neither here nor there, there are no Wikipedia reliable sources supporting his notability. Are you proposing that we obtain a list of all the fourth-level Padma awardees since 1954 and create Wikpedia articles on each of them? That would be the unmistakable, the unerring, inference of your safe argument. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 12:11, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, Padma Shri being a notable award, my conviction is that all the 2840 recipients of the award are notable per WP:ANYBIO. --jojo@nthony (talk) 12:18, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Sources not adequate. Citation record seems non-existent. No pass of WP:Prof. Xxanthippe (talk) 02:32, 29 November 2019 (UTC).[reply]
If sources are inadequate, we must develop the article. This is one of the reasons why Wikipedia allows stubs.--jojo@nthony (talk) 14:23, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Go ahead and find new sources then. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:16, 29 November 2019 (UTC).[reply]
It will come eventually, if the article does not get deleted before that. --jojo@nthony (talk) 05:05, 30 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Please see my comment below on the sourcing. --DBigXray 08:12, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:ANYBIO. WP:India contributor here, so believe I can present more insight on the awards and subject notability. The Padma Shree is given to persons with large social contributions, which generally makes them notable for an article. There may be exceptions but this subject is not one. He is a figure of authority in the Indian state of Bihar for Gastroenterology he being the Head of Department of Gastroenterology at PMCH, Bihar's biggest publicly owned college and hospital. He is also a member of the executive council of the Medical Council of India, which is a very important post held by top level doctors. I understand that the sourcing is hard to find, which is mainly attributed to WP:BIAS. The regional language is Hindi and print and TV media are more prominent in this part of the world in comparison to internet. The Times of India published an interview of the subject on the topic of Hepatitis and here--DBigXray 09:11, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: President' Medical Council of India would be a reason for an article but not just member. DGG ( talk ) 18:27, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: As in all these test cases can I ask for experienced closers/relisters only please and comments to be left in either case. thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 06:40, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment about other articles When I checked our category of those who had received the awards, at least 1/3 were unambiguously notable. So either we are getting all the notable ones, or the entire list does have to be checked to see if there are notable ones we have not covered. I would strongly support (and am willing to work on revising) articles on every one of them who do meet the usual standards. I have always advocated intensive work on all areas that are under-covered here to find the notable people. DGG ( talk ) 18:49, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment about sourcing I don't think the unavailability of sources for the modern period is actually a problem--the articles do document what the people have done. Where it would be a real problem is for the British period. DGG ( talk ) 18:49, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
DGG, my parents are from this region of India. India is a third world country and Bihar can be considered as the most economically backward region of India. This should help you have some idea of the Internet Bias in the region. It is not that the subject isn't getting covered, the coverage primarily lies in the offline media. And even then we have some coverage that I listed above. My keep vote is based mainly on the notability due to his work that got him the Padma shree in the first place and then the assumption that the conferment of the award must have led to more coverage that would again be found in the offline media. Using same standard to gauge the SIGCOV sources for a doctor in the US vs the subject from this backward region will be insane. You've got to trust the contributors from the region in such cases that are hard to judge. --DBigXray 19:19, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Despite all the protestations and special pleading we still don't have enough in-depth independent reliable sources about the subject to pass WP:GNG or other notability criteria. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:36, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: I would specifically like to know whether any editors think that moving this article to draft would enable the introduction of additional sources or bases for notability. BD2412 T 20:21, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You can move the article to draft yourself by copying its source into your sandbox. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:13, 4 December 2019 (UTC).[reply]
@Xxanthippe, Unbelievable: you are are on the verge of inciting people to perform copies without attribution, and I'd encourage people become aware of Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia before going down that route. I'll hold my breath and remain WP:CIVIL.Djm-leighpark (talk) 21:53, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Irrelevant WP:Wikilawyering. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:15, 4 December 2019 (UTC).[reply]
@Xxanthippe:, I am asking in the context of potentially closing this discussion administratively. BD2412 T 22:42, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I've been examining sources for 10 minutes, the existing sources haven't been well utilitised. Between the line our subject may have done some public Hepatitus campaigns and ther is talk of his published perr review'ed research. I haven't specificly found that on a search so far and there's other with the same name to cloud the searching. One of my concerns is copyvio's and reverse copyvio's and the interjection by Xxanthippe above means I'd likely ask for a refund if the community decides to delete this. Should the community determine a Padma Shri is insufficient in itself for article retention in mainspace I would agree it is in itself sufficient for any minimally reasonable request to restore to draft ... (avoids copyvio, reverse copyvio, attribution and WP:CFORK issues. there is a lot of digitally scanned content coming online at the moment so new sources are continuing to arise. OK if it get forgot after 6 months .... then so be it.Djm-leighpark (talk) 21:53, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment In continuation of my Keep vote above, just as I had guessed about SIGCOV sources being available in Hindi, here is one from Outlook (Indian magazine) Where the subject's biography, personal life, education, career, publication etc is covered in great detail in Hindi article, which should be sufficient to satisfy the WP:SIGCOV.[1] This also proves that more such sources can be dug up from offline sources. Apart from Padma Shree the subject has also received "Icons of Bihar" award by Outlook in 2018.[2] being an authority figure he is the goto man for major Indian newspapers for the Gastro related topics.[3][4][5][6] He is also one of the 6 member of the executive council of the Medical Council of India, which is a very important post held by top level doctors in India.[7] To answer User:BD2412, yes, it will be helpful, but so far what has been dug out, IMHO is enough for a keep. Fyi ping Djm-leighpark for a review. --DBigXray 22:35, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@DBigXray: Per WP:THREE you need to be focusing on the very sources and not presenting dictionary entries, youtube, passing mentions ... etc. In that context very loosely speaking (1) above looks to have an impressive shape but its in Hindi and unfortunately I do not know the language. 2. appears Outlook Hindi also wont help.(1 per publication). 3 is the best of the rest with 5,6,7 looking unacceptable for notability purposes and 4 looking very passing. Obviously the awarding of the Padma Shri is helpful in itself. I'm also a little intrigued by [2]. There's no point running about simply trying and badgering me to get me to swing my !vote from draftify to weak keep though ... what we need an explanation of the content of Ref: 1 above from a neutral. Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 23:40, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Djm-leighpark, Indeed #1 is an impressive source with detailed coverage. I am a native Hindi speaker, I will be glad to help you if you have any questions on translation. regards. --DBigXray 08:48, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I have left my best translation attempt on the article talk page to understand what this is about. It appears the article is a sort of biography relating to have being a founder director on the BiG hospital (whether he is main honcho or one of X founder directors I am not to be knowing.... see also [3], note I've use the wayback archive at that page may be volatile any he may not be id=15 forever.Djm-leighpark (talk) 20:58, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for doing this. I am afraid the the translation, which reads like a PR release, does not add to notability. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:33, 5 December 2019 (UTC).[reply]
Its really quite difficult to judge as the automated translation comes out quite WP:PEACOCKy whereas someone versed in both Hindi and English could likely to a better job. It does give some clues to the content of the piece but is not so good in putting it in context On a side note as far as I can (possibly incorrrectly) gather the "BIG" hospital is a private hospital (no WP article) and perhaps not so big as the Patna Medical College and Hospital (where he also works/worked) which is might have a claim at 5400+ beds to be the biggest in the world. This is not properly source by me so I may have made mistakes.09:13, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
  • Djm-leighpark The subject still works in both these hospitals and he seems to be having some kind of ownership on BIG hospital. I am versed in both Hindi and English, FYI the biographies published in the Indian media, are almost always written with an appreciative tone. But it is not hard, to differentiate between facts and fluff, in an article. The fact that his bio has been covered in such detail in a pan India magazine is to be noted here. And this is something that is available online, I am sure there are more offline. --DBigXray 10:01, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per any bio. Padma Shri is major award and it’s alone sufficient to pass the GNG. I’m agreeing with DBig’s reasoning. — Harshil want to talk? 12:00, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as meeting WP:ANYBIO, and per my arguments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anil Kumar Bhalla that equating the Padma Shri with the OBE is false. The OBE is a fourth level award within the Order of the British Empire, but there are other awards which can be given to civilians in the UK which are higher than any class of the Order of the British Empire.

  • Comment - just to correct some misconceptions regarding GNIS and whether or not they are a reliable source for this type of Gazetteer information. All the following information is taken directly from the USGS website (emphasis added is mine):
The U.S. Board on Geographic Names (BGN) is a Federal body created in 1890 and established in its present form by Public Law in 1947 to maintain uniform geographic name usage throughout the Federal Government.
Decisions of the BGN were accepted as binding by all departments and agencies of the Federal Government.
It serves the Federal Government and the public as a central authority to which name problems, name inquiries, name changes, and new name proposals can be directed.
The GNIS Feature ID, Official Feature Name, and Official Feature Location are American National Standards Institute standards.
The database holds the Federally recognized name of each feature and defines the feature location by state, county, USGS topographic map, and geographic coordinates. Onel5969 TT me 02:18, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Neutral although the article was created by a blocked user, I have some information that I can add to the article. The notable thing about the attack is that it was a tactical attack by the Houthis to ruin the relationship between the Saudi regime and the Emirate regime because that field is disputed between them. Since the attack the relationship between Saudi regime and Emairte regime started to become less friendly which caused the Saudi regime to think about ending the Qatar political dispute.

  • Strong Rename – while I am generally against the word "alleged" in many Wikipedia contexts, especially in article titles, calling these strikes "Israeli airstrikes" is a serious case of WP:OR. All of the airstrikes happened significantly later than Israel's one and only hint (not a confirmation) that it was operating in Iraq, against Iranian targets. There is also no evidence that all of the listed airstrikes were carried out by the same party. As for whether the article should be kept, I think there is enough notability to keep it—provided the strikes are examined on a case by case basis, with sufficient WP:RS linking between them.

The result was keep. The Keep arguments raise some good points about evaluating the significance of an award within the overall context of what awards are offered, and for the relevance of population when evaluating national awards (should a national award from Dominica or Monaco be given the same weight as one from China or Brazil?). That said, I don't think this should be taken as a strong test case for the Padma Shri in particular as conferring notability, since this subject has at least one other national award that was also a factor for some commenters. Regardless, the overall consensus in this specific case is to keep. RL0919 (talk) 20:06, 11 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: possibly soft. While I read WP:ANYBIO say suitable awards likely indicate notability it also says there is not necessarily the case for an article. Actually article content and potential and available sources are also reasons for an article meaning and here I think I am seeing from the current sourcing is far too much reliance upon the award itself and dictionary/gazette style sources with a small bit of a research paper. This is not to detract from the RL subject of the article. One basic problem in my opionion is we have not enough content or context in the article. I anyone wishing to keep should present 3 WP:RS sources per WP:THREE. Possibly may also be WP:TOOSOON. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 23:17, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Djm-leighpark. The Padma award by itself, especially when the recipient is an Indian, is not necessarily a sign of notability in the subject's field of interest. It can be a sign of the subject's political connections within the government of the day. Not enough reliable sources, esp. scholarly sources, here. Fowler&fowler«Talk» 03:52, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep WP:India contributor here, so believe I can present more insight on the awards and subject notability. The Padma Shree is given to persons with large social contributions, which generally makes them notable for an article. There may be exceptions but this subject is not one. In addition he has also won the prestigious Dr. B. C. Roy Award (A national award), as mentioned in this source[1] that also covers the subject in detail. So I am voting keep in lieu of these 2 awards per WP:ANYBIO as well as WP:GNG being met. --DBigXray 08:19, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: about the Roy Award According to our article this has been awarded to as many as 55 people in the medical field alone in a single year. (that article's ref 42) DGG ( talk ) 18:38, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: about the Roy Award Dr. B. C. Roy Award is the highest Indian medical award and is given by the Medical Council of India, the apex body for medical education in India (see here). Numbers are often misleading as India is a country of over 1.35 billion people. A comparison with a country such as France, which has a population of 67 million, 55 awardees a year in India will translate into less than three awards a year in France.--jojo@nthony (talk) 12:41, 7 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:ANYBIO. Padma Shri is a major award by all standards. Though a fourth level civilian honour in India, you may safely ignore the first award, Bharat Ratna, which is awarded very sparingly, only 48 awardees since 1954. Padma Shri is a recognition of major contributions in the fields of Arts, Civil Service, Literature & Education, Medicine, Public Affairs, Science & Engineering, Social Work, Sports and Trade & Industry. The total number of recipients in the 65 years of its existence is only 1840.--jojo@nthony (talk) 14:11, 29 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I fail to see how Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/P. B. Buckshey establishes consensus that a Padma Shri award is not enough by itself to give presumed notability. Indeed, I find it hard to see why that AfD was closed as Delete with no relists. There were 3 Keep !votes on the basis that a Padma Shri award gives notability, 2 Delete !votes (including the nominator) who argued that it doesn't, and 3 Delete !votes that don't address the Padma Shri. That is not enough to hold up as a consensus-establishing precedent. RebeccaGreen (talk) 09:27, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment again Also, it is not strictly true to say that it is the equivalent of an OBE. That is the fourth class of the Order of the British Empire. However, there are higher awards than the highest class of the Order of the British Empire: leaving out Dukes and Earls, which are only created for or bestowed on members of the royal family now, there are Barons/Baronesses, Knights of the Garter and Knights of the Thistle, and Baronets, all higher in precedence than the highest class of the Order of the British Empire, so the OBE comes in about 7th. The Padma Shri is stated to be the 4th highest level of civilian award, not just the fourth highest of a particular order. RebeccaGreen (talk) 09:52, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep And, as far as numbers go, a total of 2840 Padma Shri awards have been made in its 65 year history. Going on the 2019 Queens Birthday Honours List (and remembering that there is also the New Year's Honours List), over 500 OBEs are awarded each year, and over 250 CBEs. The Padma Shri is much more exclusive, especially considering the respective populations of the UK and India. I would certainly argue that all recipients would meet WP:ANYBIO. RebeccaGreen (talk) 10:16, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep agree per RebeccaGreen and this subject clearly meet WP:ANYBIO. Padma Shri is a fourth level civilian award, a country of over 1.35 billion people.

A non-notable art-term (it is a minor notable philosophical term), being marketed as notable and created by living artist Massimo Meda. The editor of this article is preparing Draft:Massimo Meda, which I think from doing a WP:BEFORE will also fail GNG (and they also updated the main "Western Art Movements" template/navbox with "Tridimensionalism"). Outside of blogs/instagram accounts linked to Massimo Meda, there is no mention of "Tridimensionalism" in the art world, and nothing independently linking Massimo Meda to founding it. Tried to CSD this a WP:G11 but was turned down by WilyD, who felt it was better suited to AfD (i.e the language is not overly promotional).

  • Comment his move to Bohemians made national news in Ireland, which is a country that requires players meet WP:GNG. This one all depends on whether you think his articles about moving to St Pats and then Bohemians (which cover him specifically, aren't blurbs) are routine or not, but most of the citations in the article are indeed routine. I don't view notability as an either/or - some articles may or may not be notable depending on your lens, and this is one of them. I don't mind keeping this at all as I think he's been significantly covered, but certainly understand if it gets deleted. If it does get deleted, he doesn't need a whole lot else to become notable - maybe draftify this instead of deleting it in case he gets covered again within six months, which I think is rather possible.

  • Draftify. On the face of it, one of those articles with much text and little substance. But, given his age and apparent potential, I think it would be worth a draft, per SportingFlyer above, in case he stars for Bohemians and then gets snapped up by an EFL club for next season.

Comment - Good catch! However, Healthcare and Medicaid would be different articles. This article refers to the Medicaid health plan which is a "subset of the larger public government healthcare delivery system".[1] It was once called "La Reforma", later it was called "Mi Salud" and then called "The Vital Plan" but they are all Medicaid. Maybe it should be renamed to be Medicaid in Puerto Rico. See this ref and for the current two names- under "Plan Vital Launches" (near the end of the long ref). [2] A 2018 source called it Mi Salud again.[3] The plan name changes[4][5] but the essence of the funding remains, the U.S. Medicaid program available for states and much less available for territories.

  • Comment I have found that this nominator has AfDed 9 Articles, 7 PRODs and 6 CSDs. of articles in a particular Category:Technical festivals in India I strongly believe WP:BEFORE was not done despite being clearly advised to so on Helpdesk.--DBigXray 12:17, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    DBigXray, I have reviewed this article again as requested, and have decided this AfD should be kept. The article is definitely a press release in my eyes, with content including a very large list of events composed solely of advertising language. For example, take this snippit from the Run IO Hackathon section: With developer talks and guest lecture, this is a one of a kind hackathon which eastern India has never seen. This event aims aim to bring together individuals with a diverse set of talents from the vast talent pool of this country under one roof to brainstorm together and develop sustainable solutions to real-life problems.. This reeks of advertising, with language like One of a kind and vast talent pool of this country.
    This is only one section, I strongly recommend reviewing the entireity of the events section to see the problem i'm getting at here.
    Problems in other sections exist too, with advertising language in almost every section, and the majority of sources being the event's own website, various list sites, and the sites of associates like eastindiacomedy.com. MoonyTheDwarf (Braden N.) (talk) 20:58, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
you can be WP:BOLD and remove sections that you feel are poorly written and poorly sourced if that is a concern. As long as there are sources that can prove teh notability of the topic, the AfD does not make sense. So please judge the notability and then take a decision on withdrawing the AfD or standing by it. some for other afds where you pinged me. --DBigXray 21:08, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@DBigXray: Perhaps you're not aware, but WP:ATTP have never carried much weight around here. If there was a problem with WP:BEFORE let the closing admin decide that, or alternatively just point to the sister-wiki, search for additional sources, etc. and post the results here if that provides evidence to keep. If you think a nominator has problems then address those elsewhere not by hounding the author across multiple AFDs. While it is true that an article written as an advertisement is not itself grounds for deletion but only for clean-up that was not the only reason given for the nomination, note the adjective "Unsourced". 2604:2000:8FC0:4:617F:E9A7:AF1C:4546 (talk) 16:28, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete alternatively Draft/Userfy pending future notability. Per WP:NEVENT there needs to be diverse, in-depth, and persistent coverage. I reviewed the google books, news, scholar, and general search results. Even for the last only six pages of websites were listed and almost none of the coverage is independent and so the notability criteria are not met. Merging is sometimes an alternative but there isn't enough independent coverage here to warrant more than a sentence or two on the topic. Would be willing to strike and reconsider if new evidence shows that WP:NEVENT is met. 2604:2000:8FC0:4:617F:E9A7:AF1C:4546 (talk) 16:46, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As to GNG, as is common with subjects who are not from English-speaking countries, the majority of sources are not in the English language - try searching under her name in cyrillic - Майя Хромых - and see just a few of the Russian sources: [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17].

    • You're confused. The guideline is specifically referring to the ISU Grand Prix event Cup of Russia. She has never been selected for that. She competed at the non-ISU Cup of Russia, a domestic Russian qualifying event. It's a complete different, non-international event that hundreds of Russian skaters have participated in. They do not automatically become notable for appearing in such minor, purely domestic events.

As CakalangSantan notes, this isn't confined to Indonesia, and there are hundreds, possibly thousands of articles about embassies that are no more notable than this one. -Kieran (talk) 20:10, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • This physical embassy is probably not 1,500 years old. Geschichte (talk) 09:53, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment, there is no need to hold for an RFC as this can be dealt on its own merits. Either the article satisfies the requirements of WP:GEOFEAT or it does not. As the nominator I don’t have a problem with it being merged t o Indonesia–Sri Lanka relations. Dan arndt (talk) 12:22, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment, then all other embassy articles should be assessed on whether they should also be merged to their respective bilateral relations articles. CakalangSantan (talk) 22:11, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • CakalangSantan, my point exactly each of the respective articles should be dealt with on the own individual merits. There doesn't need to be a unilateral deletion or merge as each article is different and some may be notable in their own right. However in respect to this article there is no evidence that I have been able to find that demonstrates that it is notable and no editor to date has been able to demonstrate otherwise. Dan arndt (talk) 03:02, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I doubt anything will happen to the other articles after this article has been dealt with. My intention was not a unilateral deletion or merge, but a unilateral AfD on similar articles (I've listed a few in a previous comment). CakalangSantan (talk) 03:36, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dan arndt, the wider issue is that, actually going by what's on Wikipedia right now, the current consensus is that embassies are inherently notable. There may not be a agreed-upon policy, but there is a very clearly agreed-upon practice. If the policy and the practice disagree, then the way forward is an RfC to review the policy and come to a community consensus. The outcome of that might be a multiple-AfD of thousands of embassy articles, but it would be done in a way that ensured consensus and community engagement. Piecemeal AfDs do not seem like a good solution. -Kieran (talk) 19:54, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Kieran - where is your evidence that "the current consensus is that embassies are inherently notable". I have gone through all the AfD cases for the last two years and if anything it is clear that almost all AfDs for embassies and consul-generals have actually been deleted on the grounds that they are not inherently notable. So I'd like to understand where you've come up with this viewpoint as it doesn't seem to be supported. Dan arndt (talk) 01:26, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: This article is part of a series of three with Rob Møhlmann and Museum Møhlmann all describing another aspect of the artist his life and work. This article can easily be merged into one of the other two, if this is needed.
As to the sources, over the years the annual exhibition has been mentioned in half of the national daily newspapers such as Algemeen Dagblad, de Volkskrant, Nederlands Dagblad and Trouw, and on the websites and/or curriculum vitae's of over 200 hundred artist in the Netherlands most of them professional artists and listed as such at the Netherlands Institute for Art History databank rkd.nl.
Internationally this annual event seem to be known as the Independent Realists Exhibition and the article should be renamed as such. This could be done right now.
Back to the sources. There have been catalogs published of the 13th to the 18th edition of the festival, which gives plenty of information about this event.
Again, it seems to be the question of the English/American/International Wikipedia allows us to write about regional events with a national and some international impact. -- Mdd (talk) 15:15, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
What about independent sources? And sources that describe the event in-depth? Passing mentions are not very helpful. The Banner talk 15:30, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I would be OK with a merge to Museum Møhlmann, given proper sourcing. As to catalogs of the shows, those are not independent do not contribute anything to notability. All three of these articles have a promotional feel to them. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 15:32, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, we can keeps this in mind. In the light of an earlier ongoing AfD discussion I like to bring forward first, that a literal interpretation of notability and fear of promotion has lead us to practically zero representation of the front of the art scene (of the Netherlands) here.
There are contemporary internationals, nation-wide, regional and local galleries and art events (and visual artists as well) which are often active for decades. They don't get through.... because it is promotional?? A large part of being an artist is to make promotion, and art events are all about it. Should this be boycotted because they are doing their job?
The thing is that there is the commercial promotion to sell products and services, and there is the art promotion to present and represent artists concepts and their points of views at the world. Selling the art works is only a small part of the art business.
Personally I think a smaller portion of the art world and artists should be allowed to represent itself here... and do what they are already doing. We should be aware that they work in our encyclopedic way, and we should be aware that we are not being flooded by articles about just local or regional events with little impact.
Beside a literal interpretation of the simplified rules of notability, we could start to image to give a comprehensive overview of the art world in a specific area. Now the thing is, that with this article I have the impression this is going in the right direction.
Now I added the Category:Art exhibitions in the Netherlands, and only now noticed this article has already been trimmed down for 75%. The category allows us to see what other art events are represented in the Netherlands and beyond.
We can then see that indeed... this is the first Dutch annual art event represented here..!! And before that.... 18 years of zero representation. I have a great deal of respect for the person, who started this and I hope we can do a better job together. -- Mdd (talk) 16:35, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Our notability rules do not work the way you suggest. People or events have to meet WP:GNG or a special notability guidelines like WP:ARTIST. a literal interpretation of the simplified rules of notability is exactly how it works here, as we have millions of pages to apply those guidelines to. If you want a broader discussion of notability, head over to WP:villagepump or the talk page of WP:NThatMontrealIP (talk) 16:58, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I will start this broader discussion of notability one day. I agree for now the current notability rules must applied. I also noticed there are similar articles here such as on the KunstRAI and the TEFAF, which gives us a lead to how this subject can be represented here in a for the subject more acceptable way. If this is here not possible, merger could be the solution. -- Mdd (talk) 19:22, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. People do not automatically qualify for Wikipedia articles just for running as candidates in future political primaries — the notability test under WP:NPOL is holding a notable political office, not just running for one. But nothing here demonstrates that he has any preexisting notability for other reasons that would have gotten him an article independently of the candidacy, and the referencing is not demonstrating a credible reason why his candidacy could be considered more notable than most other candidacies. Obviously no prejudice against recreation in November 2020 if he wins the gubernatorial election, but nothing here is grounds for him to already have an article today. As always, Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform for aspiring politicians' campaign brochures: we keep articles about people who have held notable political offices, not about everybody who ever ran for one.

Even as an island, it's not inhabited and hasn't received much significant coverage, so I'm doubtful if it meets GEOLAND. Per JamesG5, it's just too soon.

Which is another reason we shouldn't be considering TNN an RS. I was about to post at RSN for this exact reason as it's not the first time they've failed to fact check. See here: Take for example, this piece, which comes from this on this controversial topic. A 5 second search would show anyone with the ability to read that the account they cited for the press release is not legitimate and they take the word of another source, like a game of telephone. This is the supposed tweet it is all based on. It is 2 months old and the embassy's .gov website links their official account Twitter Facebook, neither of which have published this supposed press release nor do they make mention of the subject. In fact, searching for the supposed text/word the embassy released gives nothing but rehashed articles citing The News Minute.

Non-notable group, fails WP:NFICTION/GNG. At best soft delete by redirecting to its only notable member (Drizzt Do'Urden). Nothing to merge as the content is 100% WP:FANCRUFT with few PRIMARY sources. The last AfD presented several sources (none of which was actually added to the article in years since), but they are mentions in passing (GNG requires in-depth coverage). I did review the sources and they are clearly not sufficient, ex. [21] - this is the very definition of a mention in passing in a single sentence that contains not a shred of real-world-related analysis. The best source cited is this PhD thesis, but again, it only mentions this group in passing (I want to stress it: not a single full sentence is devoted to non-plot analysis of this concept); none of those sources goes an inch beyond pure WP:PLOT.

  • Redirect/Merge to List of Forgotten Realms characters. As mentioned in the nom, the information found in reliable, secondary sources is generally passing mentions or plot-only information, both for the group as a whole and for the individual members (with the exception of Drizzt). Those brief sources, along with the fact that as the main characters of a popular franchise this is a very likely search term, are enough that they should be included in the list of Forgotten Realms characters, but not as a separate article. That said, whatever merging is to be done should be done rather sparingly, as a good amount of the information here appears to be unsourced/original research.

  • Delete: Although the International Food Policy Research Institute has bracketed various papers since 1993 as part of its 2020 Vision, I am not seeing evidence of its wider recognition and distinct notability. The article itself is providing little more than a primary-sourced list of past conferences on related themes. A Redirect to International Food Policy Research Institute is a possible option, though the organisation itself appears to use just "2020 Vision" as its term (e.g. [22]) so I am dubious whether "2020 Vision Initiative" would be utilised as an effective redirect.

No evidence this fictional item passes WP:GNG/NFICTION. Pure WP:PLOT and extreme level fancruft. While the prior AfD found, finally, a single non-primary source that mentions it ([24]) the reference is in passing. The Rod of SEVEN Parts in the form of magical artifacts is mentioned there briefly, the chapter is entitled The Rod of MANY Parts, discusses other magical artifacts (Rod of EIGHT Parts, etc.). Furthermore, the Rod of Seven Parts as discussed there does not refer to a magical artifact but to a storytelling principle, so the article as written should get TNTed anyway since it if anything is notable, it is not a random DnD magical treasure, but said storytelling principle (however, I don't think this said principle can be called notable with one source, and I don't see it discussed anywhere else).

TTN (talk) 16:17, 26 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Outside of primary sources, references to the Rod are fairly passing, mostly being relegated to "Top Ten" style lists that don't do much more than describe plot details about what it is. The source mentioned above, found in the prior AFD, is, as the nom said, not really about the fictional object itself. And, regardless, it seems to be the only real source that could really be considered a reliable, secondary source giving more than passing coverage on it which, alone, is not enough to satisfy the WP:GNG. It could potentially be used as a Redirect target to such things like The Rod of Seven Parts (one of the adventures that it was the centerpiece of), but that seems to be about it.

  • Keep - It seems a source mentioned in the previous AFD was lost in the shuffle. Quests: Design, Theory, and History in Games and Narratives is a major piece of coverage in a reliable secondary source independent of the subject. Pages 87–89 in that source discuss the object in detail, not just descriptively, but with analysis, and quotes from multiple game developers who talk about how the item inspired their own game design choices. There's also Tabletop Role-Playing Games and the Experience of Imagined Worlds, which isn't quite as big, but still almost two pages (130–131) that do some analysis of the topic. Those two combine to create enough real-world notability to pass WP:GNG. —Torchiest talkedits
  • The first source appears to be about a general gaming concept that isn't inherently linked to the item and the module more than the item itself. The second source is pretty trivial. I don't see how either makes for a stand-alone topic. TTN (talk) 15:42, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I disagree with your characterization of the first source, as I think it is about the item itself: "The rod of many parts is heavily grounded in the history of RPGs, originating in a 1982 pen-and-paper module for Dungeons and Dragons...". It then goes on to talk specifically about assembling the rod, mentioning the seven Latin words on each piece, which is a direct reference to the D&D item as the inspiration for the general gaming concept. I hope others will examine the source and judge for themselves. —Torchiest talkedits 17:23, 1 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I explicitly mention and discuss this source in my OP post above, and the issue is it is not about this item. It discusses a literary concept, and not a particular magical item. "The rod of many parts" =/= "Rod of Seven Parts". --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 10:02, 2 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'll quote further to make my point cleaer. I've added bolding:

The rod of many parts is heavily grounded in the history of RPGs, originating in a 1982 pen-and-paper module for Dungeons and Dragons numbered "R7" and entitled "Dwarven" Quest for the Rod of Seven Parts. In this scenario, adventurers seek out the seven fragments of a magical staff called the Rod of Law. Each of these sections has its own magical properties that combine when the staff is reassembled to provide the strength to vanquish the Queen of Chaos. Each part of the Rod of Seven is named after one word of a Latin sentence, with each section reading respectively "Ruat," "Coelum," "Fiat," "Justitia," "Ecce," "Lex," and "Rex". This phrase translates to "Though Chaos Reign, Let Justice Be Done. Behold! Law is King" (boxed set, insert).

The text is specifically talking about the Rod of Seven Parts as the originator of the concept. And later on:

Hence, the meaning of the quest is emergent, acquired through the complex manipulations required to find all parts of the staff. As the scenario book explains, "The quest for the Rod of Seven Parts begins when the player characters embark on a search for the first piece...."

And finally, in the first sentence of the next paragraph:

The "rod of seven parts" principle carries forward from the 1982 module...

I don't see how it could be any more explicitly referring to the item itself, and the game design concept it embodies and, more crucially, essentially birthed. —Tourchiest talkedits 19:22, 2 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
All this goes to show that the Ro7P is mentioned in this context in passing (GNG requires in-depth analysis). The discussed concept is different (but also not notable, I looked for sources for it too). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:07, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Given extensive discussion I'm not sure a relist will make consensus clearer (as opposed to the current no consensus I see) but since there has been a move towards keep since Torchiest's analysis let's see if we can find consensus and avoid a possible 5th nomination.

I think merging them makes sense both in terms of strengthening their combined notability and in removing confusion. There's no clear reason why the artifact page wouldn't have the definite article The in the title anyway. —Tourchiest talkedits 21:25, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. While two-thirds of the feedback here is in favor of keeping, three editors are providing no additional analysis and don't appear based in policy. That said, there is a case that the secondary sourcing meets GNG, and as the discussion hasn't developed the arguments out on both sides, I think a "no consensus" close makes the most sense.

Usual-variety comic trivia. Fails GNG/WP:NFICTION. BEFORE fails to find anything that's not a PRIMARY source of a WP:PLOT-like fictional plot summary. Where is the literary, scholarly analysis of this niche comicverse organization? Please share any if you can find it.

Keep I found multiple source on the team. I will use prose here at individual times:

Jhenderson 777 02:49, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ok: IGN = "The Starjammers were originally conceived by artist Dave Cockrum (best known for co-creating iconic X-Men characters like Storm, Colossus and Nightcrawler). Cockrum first pitched the Starjammers concept to Marvel to be used in "tryout" anthology books like Marvel Premiere and Marvel Spotlight, but the company never had room to include Cockrum's stories. Eventually, Cockrum brought the concept to Uncanny X-Men writer Chris Claremont, and the characters made their debut in 1977's Uncanny X-Men #104. Cockrum and Claremont also decided to add the twist that Corsair was Cyclops and Havok's long-lost father in order to justify making the Starjammers a recurring presence in the X-Men books."Jhenderson 777 06:08, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Vocal.media said similar: "Back in the 1970s, artist Dave Cockrum created a band of intergalactic space-pirates and freedom-fighters known as the Starjammers. Although Cockrum had initially hoped to have the Starjammers appear in their own series, he was doomed to disappointment; at the time, Marvel liked to try out new concepts in the Marvel Spotlight and Marvel Premiere series, but both were fully-booked for two years solid. Frustrated and impatient, Cockrum approached X-Men writer Chris Claremont, and persuaded him to integrate the Starjammers into his planned cosmic direction. Claremont and Cockrum were a tremendous team, and it didn't take much effort for them to weave the Starjammers into the X-Men comics. They revealed that the Starjammers were led by Major Christopher Summers, the father of Cyclops and Havok. Christopher and his wife had been abducted by the alien empire of the Shi'ar years ago, and after his wife's tragic death, Christopher led a handful of slaves in an escape. He took up the name Corsair, and led the escapees as pirates and rebels."Jhenderson 777 06:14, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Jhenderson777: I do appreciate the quotes, it is so much nicer to work with actual content rather than claims of 'it's notable'. That said, if this is the extent of what we have, it's in effect is a reliable source for publication history and minor elements of plot summary. I don't see any analysis that is related to literary theory, significance, or such. It is effectively saying that Artist A and B created a story, wanted to publish it in such and such way, but in the end published it in a slightly different way. I am sorry, but I think that while this may merit a two-three sentences in both the biographical articles about the notable artists as well as in X-Men article (or two or three, Cyclops is likely notable), I am still not convinced that this topic merits a stand-alone entry. Look at the article: it's 99% fancruft in-universe plot summary. And all we have from your sources is a sentence or two about publication history for this. Is this really something that encyclopedia should have? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:48, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment as creator: I created it at an edit-a-thon from a list of possible biographies; it seemed borderline to me. So I totally get the WP:TOOSOON comment. Maybe move it to Draft space? Liannadavis (talk) 17:31, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think moving to draft makes much sense - that is only appropriate if there is an expectation that the issue (here, lack of notability) can be remedied within a short time; but we are looking at career-level time spans here. Probably several years? Drafts shouldn't sit around that long, and indeed are deleted after six months of no improvement. Deletion and recreation when/if it becomes appropriate would seem more sensible. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 18:41, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment This seems a borderline case, but it's not hard to imagine a GNG pass in the next six or twelve months (say, the L'Oréal-UNESCO award plus some news coverage of her work being licensed). I'd be happy with userfying the content as suggested above. XOR'easter (talk) 15:07, 6 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Userfy I have found and added a couple of sources, and also deleted one that had the same wording as the UNESCO page. Although the Sunday Times (South Africa) and The Citizen (South Africa) are both independent, reliable sources, they are both covering her Rising Talent award - as is the UNESCO source, so are almost WP:BLP1E. The other source I added does not have significant coverage, just says that she also received a UNESCO/L'Oréal doctoral fellowship. So, WP:TOOSOON, but probably worth keeping in the creator's sandbox for when there is more news about her. RebeccaGreen (talk) 13:28, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
