Sack of Azekh (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Contains WP:OR, the book "The Kurdish National Movement: Its Origins and Development" contradicts this page, stating on page 59:

[Muhammad Pasha] laid siege to Azikh but failed to take it, owing in part to the inhabitants' fierce resistance and in part to disturbing developments at 'Amadiya. He was forced to relinquish his conquests in this region and to hurry back to the rebellious town, where the former ruler Sa'id Pasha, supported by a popular uprising, had deposed Musa Pasha and compelled him to flee.

DDPF (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

Tagged for speedy deletion by Jules* with the reason:

original research / not verifiable. Sources do not say that DDPF is a terrorist group, we don't even know if a such group really exists (sources only talks about a Telegram group and police is not sure of anything about it. See Le Monde

* Pppery * it has begun... 20:16, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

However, the related page on attacks carried by this group shows a substantial number of references. First, I want to emphasize that Jules* removed the mention of anarchism as the main lead pursued by French authorities—even though this claim is backed by two sources in the specific article about the attacks. A simple Google search would have confirmed this. Here are the two articles: (1) (2).
Regarding DDPF, the user selectively picked sources and provided only one, Le Monde, which questions whether the attacks are coordinated and examines the links between the Telegram channel claiming responsibility (and providing close-up images/videos of the attacks—clearly from people with direct access I should say) and the actual assaults. Let me clarify: I extensively research terrorism in general and anarchist terrorism in particular, and such practices are entirely typical of 21st-century terrorist groups. The most obvious example that comes to mind is Al-Qaeda or ISIS’s online recruitment and incitement campaigns during the 2000s and 2010s. Whenever radicalized individuals carry out attacks and claim them in the group’s name, they are considered part of it—which is logical, as this is one of the primary forms of early-21st-century terrorism, sometimes overlapping with lone-wolf attacks but not always. Here, the only precise witness accounts describe multiple assailants (e.g., people in a car or hooded figures setting fire to targets)—clearly not individual acts. So, as I told Jules*, I don’t see why, even if the investigation eventually concludes (which is possible) that this isn’t an anarchist group, we couldn’t mention it as the main lead as it is the main lead so far.
The reality is that most sources do refer to it as a group—especially since the terrorist group and the Telegram channel share the same name. We’re likely dealing with a hardcore nucleus that carried out some attacks and is now trying to incite others (e.g., people linked to prisons—the only arrested suspect so far is a former inmate) to follow suit. This is a classic strategy of modern terrorism (and not even just modern—terrorism in general).
As for the claim that the Telegram channel is separate from the group (which they changed in the introduction also), frankly, I think the user deliberately cherry-picked an isolated this source. Plenty of others clearly treat it as a group—here’s a sample.(3)(4)(5)(6 in English)
Some speak of it as a 'movement', such as Le Figaro (6)
In fact, the position of the Guardian (7) describing it as a group based on the Telegram channel to communicate (meaning their main modus operandi known so far is to use that homonymous channel to coordinate, incite and mediatize their actions) seems to be the fairest one, and probably where the inquiry will go towards, but don't know yet.
But in any case, I don't see why she would delete the page ; either it's a group, a movement or a slogan anti-prison if it's ultimately decided (which is very dubious and unprobable) ; in any case it would be usable here and not a non-deserving subject. Look at the amount of sources we are discussing the subject while it's still going on, I feel like it kinda shows that it's a big subject, and I mean it's a current event, so the page will follow it's usual temporality and follow the sources as they come through ; deleting seems clearly wrong regarding the amount of sources avalaible online. Also I should note that Jules* is admin on the FR:WP and I won't repeat the accusations I made against them in the talk page of DDPF but the FR:WP admin team deleted this page for 'Manifest vandalism' while I was sleeping without opening a single discussion on it - and I feel very attacked by this categorization of what I did, which is clearly not vandalism but instead trying to do subjects I like, and you know I like terrorism-related subjects since I did hundred of pages regarding that (in this account and this one, so as not to fool anyone) ; I spent time trying to improve the FR:WP on that matter, and I still engage there while I'm being harassed, etc and this is how they act and how they categorize my edits. Do you really think it's 'Manifest vandalism' ? I feel like it was maybe rushed, but you know me, you say it to me on my talk page and I add sources and I'm a cyclical dude, I would have come back to the page to add sources over time, like I always do, Jules*. Anyways, yes, that's it, delete it if you want but it's not deserved by the amount of sources and it's more of a revealer of the atmosphere I feel like against me on FR:WP, where everyone is against me and hates my guts, basically. But it's probably deserved, hey, strange that in EN:WP it's not the same at all. Aristoxène (talk) 20:44, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
History, or God, or human consciousness or whatever people believe in will judge. I just feel like I'm being systematically attacked since I criticized rape culture there and harassment targetting me and the feminist project and their administration management of the issues. Since then, it's only hostility and them hating my guts and I'm the worst dude ever. So I'm sorry to feel that this is in the same process but I feel it's the same dynamic ; and it's personal ok but the attacks seem personal too and often by the same people. Aristoxène (talk) 20:53, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
After some thinking, I should say that I don't have the whole time of the world, so like I need to improve Rosalie Soubère and other pages for a project and do stuff IRL, so I'm sorry but I will drop this issue, do what you want with the page, it should stay, but I won't engage anymore with it or any related subjects, either here or in the FR:WP, it's ok, they will do better. I remove them from my Watchlist and I mute Jules* and I thank you all for the choice you will make, I'm sure it will be the right one. I won't be harassed like this, it's just work I did that goes into the bin and me not having the satisfaction of shaping the page I liked creating as it goes forward and we learn more about it, RIP. Aristoxène (talk) 21:12, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
"I just feel like I'm being systematically attacked since I criticized rape culture there and harassment targetting me and the feminist project and their administration management of the issues." This has nothing to do with the current matter: I never met you on fr-wp before and did not even know you name until today. And it has everything to with you writing things that are not in sources. — Jules* talk 22:51, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: DDPF is obviously notable, there are dozens of reliable sources about it. Also, it definitely exist, people are literally commiting terror attacks in France in the name of this group and spray painting its name on the walls.

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Organizations, Politics, Terrorism, and France. WCQuidditch 00:41, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge into 2025 French prison attacks. Regardless of what constitutes the DDPF, the reliable sources above only appear to discuss the group in relation to these attacks, not as independently notable. It would be best, then, to cover DDPF in the context of the attacks, and if there are additional sources about the DDPF in isolation (separate from the attacks) in the future, it can always split out to an independent article in summary style. Also noting that most sources unfurl the acronym as "Défense des droits des prisonniers français" not just "Droit des prisonniers français". And as a side note about personal attacks, every language Wikipedia is administered differently, but bringing an article to AfD discussion is foremost an opportunity to talk about the sources for the subject so I'd try not to view it as a personal judgment on the article's editors. czar 01:24, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge into 2025 French prison attacks. It doesn't appear that the Telegram group is independently notable as a standalone topic outside the context of the prison attacks.

  • Keep: This acronym may refer to a terrorist group or to an action by the French far left against prisons. The action is under investigation and will probably be followed up in the near future.

  • Merge to 2025 French prison attacks, per above. Whether or not this group exists, it's pretty clear that it is not independently notable outside of the prison attacks being committed. Per WP:NORG, I don't think there's any need for this to be a separate article, at least not based on the current coverage in sources. --Grnrchst (talk) 16:47, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was speedy keep‎. Potential problems with WP:NPOV can be addressed in the article. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion assesses the notability of the subject, rather than the quality of the article. In the nomination, it is unclear why a Psychology Today source directly about the subject is a problem rather than demonstrating notability. !Votes to speedy keep note that the cited sources meet WP:GNG and have been scrutinized previously during the DYK process. Editors also note the nomination may "be a spillover" from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Harald Malmgren (2nd nomination). (non-admin closure) Rjjiii (talk) 02:35, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Psychological perspectives on UFO belief (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I propose that Psychological perspectives on UFO belief be deleted, or at minimum merged into existing articles due to it failing WP:NPOV, WP:RS, and WP:MERGE:

Neutrality violations (WP:NPOV / WP:FRINGE)

[edit]
  • Emphasizes psychological “pathology” (hallucinations, schizotypy, delusions, antipsychotic treatment) while omitting major peer-reviewed research showing abductees to be psychologically normal (Ring, McNally, Mack).
  • Alternative or sympathetic viewpoints appear only to be immediately rebutted (e.g. John E. Mack’s work is framed as “un-scholarly” without noting Harvard’s support for his academic freedom).

Undue weight on fringe/non-scholarly sources (WP:UNDUE / WP:RS)

[edit]

Content redundancy (WP:MERGE)

[edit]
  • All core material (fantasy-prone personality, cognitive biases, case studies) already covered more neutrally in Alien abduction and John E. Mack.
  • A standalone page creates a POV fork; merging into a “Psychology and UFOs” section ensures balanced context.

Specific examples

[edit]

Recommendation

[edit]
  • Delete
  • Or merge into Alien abduction or Ufology, rewritten with neutral tone and high-quality, peer-reviewed citations.

Deletion/merging is policy enforcement, not censorship. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Werd sire (talkcontribs) 19:59, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Subject does not appear to be notable - the article is overly promotional/not written from WP:NPOV as well about the subject's campaign/platforms.

  • Delete. Per the article, Seth Speiser is a general contractor and a local elected official. Local politicians are not automatically notable, nor are they not automatically not notable. Reasons a local politician could be notable are longevity in service (Robert L. Butler, Margaret Doud, or Hilmar Moore) or misconduct (Betty Loren-Maltese or Rita Crundwell) or being a local politician who happens to be famous for another reason (Brandon Bochenski as Mayor of Grand Forks, North Dakota). A citation from the Illinois Conservation Police for hunting with bait does not meet WP:CRIME. His defense of Freeburg High School's mascot is not so great as to warrant an individual article per WP:NOPAGE and using coverage of his quote as Mayor is confusing existence with notability. A search of ProQuest, NewsBank, and NewspaperArchive did not turn up anything of note with run of the mill happenings like commenting on grocery store openings or The Freeburg Tribune noting he won election to the Freeburg Elementary School council. There are also a lot of efforts to mask a lack of notability in the article such as the use of three citations for the hunting violation. Per WP:OUTCOMES neither his business career as a general contractor (of which I found nothing) or his position as a local elected official warrant an individual article. --Mpen320 (talk) 02:17, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

October 2024 Deir al-Balah mosque bombing (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

These articles fail WP:GNG. The only coverage is WP:ROUTINE news reporting in the immediate aftermath of the incidents, with no indication of WP:SUSTAINED or WP:LASTING coverage. Wikipedia is WP:NOTNEWS and should not be the paper of record for every isolated act of violence, regardless of scale or tragedy, as part of broader conflagrations.

The presence of significant casualties is not, in itself, a criterion for notability under Wikipedia policy. Notability must be established through multiple, independent, and reliable sources that provide substantial coverage beyond mere event reporting. In these cases, such coverage is absent.

These nominations are being made in the interest of consistency and in light of WP:NPOV. Both Israeli and Palestinian-related events should be evaluated under the same criteria and to avoid selectively retaining articles based on the nationality of the victims.

By contrast, articles like 13 July 2024 al-Mawasi attack (Palestinian) and 2021 Tapuah Junction shooting (Israeli) meet notability due to broad and enduring media analysis and public discourse. These stand in stark contrast to the transient coverage seen in the articles nominated here and mirror the community's consensus to merge 2024 Tarqumiyah shooting (Israeli) and Shadia Abu Ghazala School corpses (Palestinian).

The nominated articles can be and should be merged into Timeline of the Gaza war. Longhornsg (talk) 20:01, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Generally, per WP:LASTING, "It may take weeks or months to determine whether or not an event has a lasting effect. This does not, however, mean recent events with unproven lasting effect are automatically non-notable."
  2. The al-Funduq shooting was only 3 months ago, so it is still recent. The death of one of the perpetrators was also mentioned as recently as last week, so that seems to have WP:SUSTAINED coverage.
  3. The Beit Lahia airstrike and Deir al-Balah bombing are both mentioned in South Africa's “Public dossier of openly available evidence on the State of Israel’s acts of genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza, as of 4 February 2025” (although the latter is only in a footnote). That these events will be used as evidence in the genocide case makes them lasting. The events are also recent enough that it feels slightly over-zealous to delete.
Not WP:SIGCOV, mentioned in several of over 100 footnotes in a 220+ page legal document. Longhornsg (talk) 00:59, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Significant coverage was already established through WP:DIVERSE coverage in WP:RS, which is enough per WP:NTEMP.
I think you are misinterpreting WP:ROUTINE. Per WP:NOTROUTINE, "if an article goes into detail about the event, it is not necessarily "routine" coverage." EvansHallBear (talk) 04:16, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Bolta Kagaz Thanks for sharing the links. However, the sources provided are primarily podcasts and YouTube videos, which are generally not acceptable for establishing notability on Wikipedia. According to WP:GNG, a subject must have significant coverage in multiple reliable, independent sources. Information coming directly from the subject such as interviews or self-published content is not considered independent.

Despite having 72 sources, this article still fails WP:GNG. Most of them are either praises/critiques from communist parties and groups (which are not reliable and independent sources) and minor mentions of this organization by russian state-controlled medias (which, again, are not reliable and independent sources).

  • bankingnews.gr, I cannot find it on WP:RSN, but that doesn't mean it's automatically unreliable or not RS
  • Daily Worker is also not deprecated
And so on.
I don't deny that there aren't problems with the article, but if you think that all of its ~79 citations are unreliable, or inadmissible for one reason or another, then you have to make a case for it. TurboSuperA+(connect) 06:59, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

an argument about source quality is obviously not “delete because I don’t like it”, and I think you’re literate enough to know that—at least on second glance (give it a try right now?)
That a source is not deprecated does not mean it reliable. The Daily Worker has no editorial information whatsoever on its website, and the article cited is now unpublished. Zanahary 05:34, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
And the Daily Worker website is not the same Daily Worker as the Wikipedia article you linked covers; that one ceased publication in 1958 and this online thing just claims to be continuing its legacy. Zanahary 05:43, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So, upon review:
The TASS sources are both about the Russia/Ukraine conflict, and as such are definitely not reliable, and I am removing them.
The bankingnews piece is minuscule, and the source is apparently obscure.
The "Daily Worker" piece comes from some website called Daily Worker with no apparent relationship to the actual Daily Worker, and no listed editorial staff or policies of any kind.
Are these the best sources? Zanahary 08:07, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What a strange interpretation of the nomination. Could you please explain it? Zanahary 18:33, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, as mentioned above, communist publications are not always unreliable. It is very expected that the communist international is covered primarily by communist sources, especially because the communist ideology is on the fringe of the political spectrum. Compare sources to International Meeting of Communist and Workers' Parties, a clearly notable organization that includes the communist parties of Greece and China, is also covered mostly by communist sources. Fresh blackcurrant (talk) 18:31, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Fresh blackcurrant, as discussed above, the sources are problematic because they are unreliable, not because they are biased. Zanahary 08:09, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Prapaganda is listed in What Wikipedia is Not. We can make it sound like a necessary evil, but it is not necessary at all. Promotionalism and propaganda are usually good reasons to delete at AFD. A source offering "opposition" to anyone does not make it "unreliable. It is considered biased, which is also not a bad thing, in and of itself. It is the total of the sum that needs more than just error corrections. I don't see that the article can be, or that anyone will want to try to edit to fix problems. After reading it, I would suggest using dynamite and starting all over. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Otr500 (talkcontribs) 19:43, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This article was first nominated for deletion in August 2023 on the basis the topic in general was non-notable. The article at the time was basically WP:NOTAGUIDE/WP:NOTADIRECTORY and mostly uncited. The discussion reached no consensus.

I engaged in an extensive cleanup effort, which deleted the content which was uncited/uncitable or needlessly duplicating Shooting ranges, with no US-specific angle.

I got it to where it is now by November 2023, which is a start-class article with one well-sourced section on shooting over BLM/public land. Since ballistics and physics are basically global, the only "uniquely American" aspect is legislation, which fits nicely as a short section within Gun laws in the United States.

Since 2023, no substantive edits have been offered. Nobody has added content relating to types or designs of shooting ranges that are specifically or uniquely American (c.f. Shooting Ranges in Switzerland which discusses how Swiss ranges trend around oddly specific distances and features for cultural and historic reasons).

There is nothing special or notable about shooting ranges in the US compared with shooting ranges in Canada, China or the United Kingdom. Certain ranges such as NRA Whittington Center are notable in themselves for hosting World Championships, etc. But there seems to be no encyclopaedic value to "Shooting ranges in the United States".

This article clearly fails the Wikipedia Notability guidelines for TV. This is a TV show that seems to have been a one-off for the Monte Carlo Rally, lasting for just one season. This smells of promotion, too. There also aren't any citations, and there has been a citations tag since December 2009, 16 years ago. This article must be deleted.

This book does not pass Wikipedia notability guidelines for books, and the author barely passes. One book in this series was nominated for the Edgar Allen Poe Award, but not this book. This page has had a "no citations" tag for the past eleven years and there are still no citations. This book has won no awards, is not on any lists, and is not a bestseller. Not every random book deserves a Wikipedia page. This book can remain in a bibliography list on the author's page, (John Maddox Roberts), but does not deserve its own page. It also violates Wikipedia guidelines for fiction, given that it consists almost entirely of a plot summary and character list. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 10:34, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Masscreated LUGSTUB. The existence of this article casts serious doubt on Cricinfo as a source, since "Wajihuddin" is essentially a surname, with anyone having this name typically being referred to as Wajihuddin Ahmed or Mohammed Wajihuddin. It is entirely possible that the Wajihuddins referred to in the reports collected on Cricinfo are not the same person.

Well, since I saw a result section for the 2025 Singaporean general election, I don't think that the page is rather necessary. I'm setting this page as a reason for debate or agreement. Sculture65 (talk) 10:05, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify if AfD closes before 3 May, keep if it is after 3 May (leaning on WP: CRYSTAL BALL). Is it unnecessary now? Probably yes, given that the only results for now is the walkover. I don't see a need to delete now because when the polling day arrives on 3 May (which is not too far off), there may be so many happenings that one may opt for the summary of the results on the main article and have the details be written on this page. Keeping this in draft for the time being allows for a quick recovery if and when the article is needed on 3 May. – robertsky (talk) 11:12, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The reason why I created the subpage(s), as also I did for the Electoral boundaries changes of the 2025 Singaporean general election, is so that the present main page won't get too oververbose with too much information. That table is pretty large and honestly the main page only needs the results on the national level. In fact, I've actually considered doing up a subpage for political issues, but in the end, I think constituency-specific issues should go to the respective constituencies.
I'm trying to trim info and, when I plan to bring this to GAN, I might unfortunately have to still purge much of the trivia and WP:OR and WP:SYNTH info that goes into a bit too much detail (especially details on boundary changes or disqualification of past candidates). At the end of the day, what matters more is the quality of content and more stuff doesn't necessarily mean good. That said, I'm fine with you tinkering around with the subpages at the moment and writing more of the info there.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 11:54, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Alternative to draftify is to redirect to main article as I don't see much changes needed between now and polling day. – robertsky (talk) 13:10, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify per robertsky. Can be moved back into mainspace after the election results are released. Procyon117 (talk) 13:01, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The main point is, where do you want that constituency results table? Is it large enough (33 entries) it be on another page?
I prepped that table in a way that it serves as a Candidates list that is ready to be turned into a constituency results table by simply filling in the necessary numbers.
Now it seems like it's moved to this page and someone decided to make their own incomplete version of the same table on the main page. It's a mess. A10203040 (talk) 13:27, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Deleting that.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 02:00, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • I find it necessary because already at 33 constituencies, it's taking up a significant amount of space on the page. On the main page, we will only need the results on the national level. In fact, on the previous elections pages, by right we should have moved the breakdown by constituency to its own pages. I find it very trivial to show the breakdown by constituency, tbh.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 02:00, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Splits might be unavoidable for large articles like this. WP:SIZERULE indicates that the likelihood of splits increases beyond 8,000 words. Currently the DYK tool puts the article at 7,792 words. If I am not mistaken, the tool excludes tables and lists. With the tables and lists included (infobox as well), it may be closer to 8,000 or beyond words. – robertsky (talk) 04:37, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Draftify until the May 2025 per nom. Ratnahastin (talk) 02:40, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. if not, dratify or redirect.: There is a result out of 33 pending results which can qualify the existence of the article. WP:CRYSTALBALL says subject matter must be of sufficiently wide interest that it would merit an article if the event had already occurred. in its main paragraph and similarly in its point 1. Partial result had happened (one constituency had a walkover and MP-elects confirmed) which make this article valid.
While there are no other election results articles for previous Singaporean general elections, WP:OTHERSTUFFDOESNTEXIST is not a good argument. We need to discuss it based on the article's own merit and also in the same token, we can argue WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS such as other countries's general elections have their standalone results articles and we had failed to create standalone results articles for Singapore's general elections!
Not the best metric due to formatting and markup of tables, this article has 45,670 bytes with the main article at 220,872 bytes, the article will be around 17% of the main article if merged back. As it stands on my screen, results article takes up about 5.5 of my monitor screens with the main article around 9.5 screens, meaning merging back to the main article, the results will take up 33% of the whole article length. Based on WP:SIZESPLIT, it may be more beneficial to split. ~ JASWE (talk) 02:56, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Subject does not appear to be majorly notable beyond inclusion in the musical Operation Mincemeat and the associated search. Majority of coverage of subject is coverage of the musical. Coverage of search for her identity is already covered in musical's article DeputyBeagle (talk) 09:34, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment She is significantly talked about in Chapter 7 of Ben Macintyre's 2010 book Operation Mincemeat (full text) and there is a book coming out about her contributions in a few months [book page]. In addition, she has non-musical (or not-exclusively-musical) coverage about her war contributions here, here, and here. I think there is room for improvement in this article to better highlight the actual contributions to the war effort rather than just the musical-related research, but her notability itself follows wikipedia's general notability guidelines WP:GNG (two books with significant coverage of her life, multiple articles of the same). Engrigg22 (talk) 14:50, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The upcoming book appears to really be about the search for her (i.e. musical research) rather than about her specifically. Her real-life contributions are able to be covered under the page for Operation Mincemeat, and the research around her is already covered (but if necessary could be expanded upon) in the page for Operation Mincemeat (musical)
It appears to me to be a case of WP:1E without a large enough contribution to justify an entire standalone article. DeputyBeagle (talk) 08:14, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It is a random short-lived train service. There is no source that I could find for the "Coach Composite" [sic] information in the article, even if it was notable. It seems to come under WP:NOTGUIDE and WP:NOTDB.

There are 1000+ articles about individual Indian train services (though at least most of them are about regular services, rather than one-offs like this). See Category:Indian_Railways_trains.

There has been some prior discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Barauni–Lucknow Express on this kind of article, which concluded that such generic articles might be worth deleting. There have been several subsequent individual nominations of similar articles, with most of the recent ones being successful.

Note that sources for a cricketer playing in Australia over that time period are likely to be mainly print sources - an inexpert search on Trove (Jack Green Cricket) or (Jack Green Victoria) gives large numbers of false positives, but there does seem to be some articles that appear to be about the person in question, although not necessarily about his first class matches.

  • Delete per TNT, or redirect to an article worth reading. I have an open mind on whether we need an article on the topic at the moment, because my Google search produced mostly copies of this article[[49]], material about enzymes that failed to mention enzyme modulators[[50]], or mentioned them as a fuzzy after-thought, and very few genuinely useful articles (such as this [[51]]). There are also articles that talk about modulators of enzymes as possible pharmaceuticals, but it's not clear to me whether they support the idea of "enzyme modulators" as a specific term, or whether this is just natural language (see [[52]] where many of these are titles referring to enzyme modulators but they're just trying to say that a class of pharmaceutical modulates the activity of a particular target enzyme; it's like jam-jar labels, they label jam jars, we talk about jam jar labels but there's nothing special about them beyond being labels that happen to have been stuck on a jam jar. But the fact remains that this article is three sentences. The first is a dictionary definition. The second is only partially correct. The third is a quote taken out of context and entirely incomprehensible (and irrelevant). There's nothing here worth salvaging. Our readers would be much better served by something like being redirected to Allosteric modulator or something similar. Elemimele (talk) 11:46, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The term is just a broad label encompassing enzyme activator, enzyme inhibitor, and allosteric regulator. A large number of Google Scholar hits for such a general term isn't surprising; you'd probably get a lot of hits for "high-speed synthesis"; that doesn't mean the dozens of uses of that term would be a single cohesive topic. I could accept a redirect to enzyme regulation if people feel strongly against deletion, but I don't think there's anything here to save. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 11:54, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I have been working with enzymes, and especially enzyme kinetics, since 1965, and I have never met this term before today. It seems to have been arbitrarily invented by a virologist whose contributions to enzymology have been minimal. Insofar as we need a term that embraces both inhibitors and activators the one established in the literature is "modifier", standard at least since it was used by Botts and Morales in 1954.

The subject of the nominated article doesn’t become notable by being in a relationship with someone who is notable.

This too appears to be, at best, a WP:TOOSOON draftify—again, a 16-year-old player who plays for his club's under-16 side and has only played youth international matches.

    I did indeed, which is why I suggested that this player fits within the bounds of WP:TOOSOON. Indeed, as a "rising star," he is a developing player, not yet established both in his team and in coverage—i.e. notability. And the WP:SIGCOV, while no doubt capable of growing, or indeed likely to grow, is not firmly established yet. That's why I suggested to draftify rather than delete.

hatted obvious LLM-generated content. Write your own ideas yourself

Keep The proposed deletion of Luigi Mangioni’s Wikipedia page is not a neutral act of moderation — it is a strategic erasure of a flashpoint figure in one of the most emotionally and ethically charged public debates in recent memory. Mangioni is not simply a private citizen. He is the alleged perpetrator in the killing of Brian Thompson — a pharmaceutical executive whose role in predatory healthcare pricing has made him a symbol, to many, of systemic cruelty.

Whether one views Mangioni as a criminal, a martyr, or something more complex, the undeniable truth is this: he has become a folk hero to those who see the American healthcare system not as broken, but as functioning exactly as it was designed — to extract, deny, and discard. Mangioni’s name has been scrawled on protest signs, whispered in online forums, and turned into meme-lore precisely because he is perceived to have acted against an untouchable class of profiteers who engineer suffering with legal impunity.

This cultural resonance — whether one finds it inspiring or horrifying — is historically significant. Attempts to sanitize the public record by removing Mangioni’s page under claims of "lack of notability" or "policy violations" are transparent acts of narrative control. Wikipedia cannot claim to be the encyclopedia of the people while selectively pruning the entries that make people uncomfortable.

Deleting this page is not about standards — it’s about silence. And silence, in the face of public outrage, systemic injustice, and a growing mythos surrounding Mangioni, is complicity. Let the page stand. Let history record what happened — and let people decide what it means. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.87.13.143 (talkcontribs) 07:48, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sardesai, Govind Sakharam (1946) dedicated 2-3 (I'm overestimating here) lines to the actual conflict, Subrahmanian, N. (1979) mentions this conflict in passing (not by the name it is named as), same thing with Mehta, Jaswant Lal (2005), the only academic tertiary source covering the Marathas , Gordon Stewart (2005) does not even mention this battle, although it is cited here. This article completely fails notability guidelines, there is no significant coverage for the battle and even the cited sources don't call it what the author has named this article. Ratnahastin (talk) 22:19, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • You are incorrect, the source only has a few lines for the actual conflict itself, most of what you are considering as coverage is in fact about the background and events that happened after it. Your source is also too old to be used and all the relevant detail about the conflict is just this:

On 8th December Nizam Ali occupied Chas, 20 miles north of Poona and pushed on to Uruli less than one day’s march from that capital. Here his advance was halted. His devastation of the places of sanctity had already estranged his Maratha subordinates and sedition was being successfully employed in his ranks. Ramchandra Jadhav and Mir Mughal, Nizam Ali’s brother, deserted him and came over to the Peshwa. This defection in his forces created a serious situation for Nizam Ali, who came to be practically surrounded at Uruli and was compelled to beg for terms to secure his retreat.

Maniacal ! Paradoxical (talk) 08:43, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is what actual "battle" coverage looks like:
he marched directly upon Poona at the head of a powerful army of sixty thousand men, with a determined intention to capture the nerve-centre of the Maratha power and to prostrate it permanently. Fire and desolation marked the trail of Nizam Ali’s invading forces. By destroying Toka and Pravara-Sangam, two great centres of Hindu religious sanctity, in November, he added fierce fanaticism to his political aims. He dug up Sindia’s palaces at Shrigonda for obtaining hidden treasure. The menace so quickly approached Poona, that it then created a scare, in consequence of which the Peshwa’s family and some of the general populace removed themselves for safety to Lohgad, Purandar, Sinhagad and other places.
At this trying moment Madhavrao and his uncle sent urgent calls to Janoji Bhosle and other Sardars to join the Peshwa’s standard,
so that a force of about seventy thousand was assembled by the end of October. With this army they at once moved to oppose the enemy and bring him to submission. Avoiding a general action, they harassed the progress of the enemy at every turn, and wore down his spirit in several skirmishes which took place at Ahmadnagar, Shrigonda, Hivre and Bhuleshvar on the enemy’s route towards Poona. On 8th December Nizam Ali occupied Chas, 20 miles north of Poona and pushed on to Uruli less than one day’s march from that capital. Here his advance was halted. His devastation of the places of sanctity had already estranged his Maratha subordinates and sedition was being successfully employed in his ranks. Ramchandra Jadhav and Mir Mughal, Nizam Ali’s brother, deserted him and came over to the Peshwa. This defection in his forces created a serious situation for Nizam Ali, who came to be practically surrounded at Uruli and was compelled to beg for terms to secure his retreat.
I'm not even quoting the aftermath or prelude of the battle. It's just you conveniently left out other parts. Subrahmanian's citation was for your "sources don't call it what the author has named this article" question, it surely doesn't have more than half a page of coverage. Although the gap is filled by Sardesai. Maniacal ! Paradoxical (talk) 09:03, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Let's break down the so-called "significant coverage", it seems you didn't even read the quote you have pasted here:
  • November, Nizam destroys Toka and Pravara-Sangam.
  • October, Large forces assembled by Marathas.
  • December, Nizam occupies Chas.
  • December-January, Nizam's further conquests are halted at Uruli(the actual conflict begins)
  • January, Nizam is surrounded and his men defect.
The real conflict only begins at Uruli in January, you have simply cited the conflict preceding here in this quote, the way Sardesai is discussing the conflict, it is obvious that he is treating this battle as a part of the broader conflict between Marathas and the Nizam, there is therefore no significant coverage about the battle in the sources, it is irrelevant what Subramanian calls it ( he doesn't even call it what the it is titled as), if he doesn't cover the battle. The quote i posted earlier is all there is. Taking an excerpt out of an outdated work and spinning it off into an article is completely unwarranted, this page should not have been created in the first place.

  • Delete as failing WP:GNG No significant coverage in independent and reliable sources.
The most detailed coverage that I could find is in Sardesai (1946) (pp. 467-8) and Banerjee (1943) (pp. 5-6) but neither of those sources:
  • Call the conflict the Battle of Uruli;
  • Talk about it in any significant or consistent detail, focussing more on the internal fissures and politicking among the Maratha leaders.
  • (most importantly) Are reliable for this topic area. Besides being ~80 year-old dated sources, see also this scathing review of Banerjee (1943), which also takes a side-swipe at Sardesai's oeuvre as "one-sided studies" compared to even Banerjee; Gordon (1993) (pp. 5-6) has a similar critique of Sardesai.
None of the other sources in the article, or ones I could locate, provide any better coverage. Any of the material found that is relevant and source-able to modern scholarship can be easily included in a sentence or two in the Madhavrao I, Raghunath Rao and related articles.
Lastly, note that the current version of the article misrepresents many of the sources it does cite. For example, none of the details in the Battle section, the core of the wikipedia article and central to the subject's notability, are found in the cited source, Sardesai (1946), and seem to be made up on-wiki afaict. Even worse, the claims in the first sentence of Aftermath section are the opposite of what the cited source Gordon (1993) says on page 155, viz., it was the Nizam who was "bought off" by being offered a large tribute by the Marathas. Sitush has previously made several attempts to clean up the article by removing unsourced and false details but those are simply added back by a series of (subsequently blocked) accounts.

Tag team that lasted a year. Chief problem is WP:GNG: main sources are database entries, with a WP:BEFORE check pulling up nothing substantial. Two books are cited with this article: one page from an overview of WWE wrestling in the 80s (Shields: inaccessible on Google Books, but it would be hard to argue significant coverage from a single page overviewing an era of pro wrestling), and another broad book covering the history of pro wrestling. Nothing standalone is the concern with these cites. /over.throws/ 16:18, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Regardless of how this turns out, thank you Flyingphoenixchips for the reminder about WP:ATD-T. For reference, the relevant guideline is Wikipedia:Notability (people). I think the only sources for this biography that have significant coverage (Honei, Vanguards of Wesea, SEED Cell, and iU) are either not independent or not reliable. Honei could be independent. I consider them to be basically human interest reporting, which is generally not as reliable as news reporting, and I don't see evidence of reliability (like editorial oversight) to refute that generalization. Vanguards of Wesea is – per its website – an initiative of the Wesean High School Students Forum. It looks like its stories are produced from nominations that are then assessed according to that website's definition of notability. Despite the nominations being reviewed by editors, I am skeptical of that source's independence from the subject. SEED Cell and the iU interview don't seem independent. In my search for sources, I only found newsheads.in. That source ended up on the spam blacklist, so I won't spend too much time evaluating it. Overall, I don't see evidence of notability.

Yep, deletion discussion would be the best course of action to get a consensus on notability! :) For now I have added the additional references! I am kinda on the grey area on whether the subject is fully notable or not either. However would appreciate input from other editors here. Flyingphoenixchips (talk) 01:32, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I would not like to support a keep or a delete for this article, as I do agree with most of what PrinceTortoise had to say. https://www.iuemag.com/u20/is/an-inspiring-young-entrepreneur-from-the-northeast-india-Prajal-Regmi IU] is definitely not a reliable source. As for SEED Cell it seems reliable to me, because the article itself only reports of the person winning an award, and I do think this might be independent of the subject and is only reporting news about entrepreneurship from the state. As for Honei I defnitely am on the edge. Yes, it is definitely a case of human interest reporting. As for Vanguards of Wesea I do feel the subject is definitely independent from the article. There is a named author for each article, and from their website they state that "Vanguards of Wesea is strictly an encyclopedia... All nominations undergo thorough verification, and our editors ensure each person's notability through third-party sources and confirm that their achievements are legitimate." I do not see anything there that might show tht the subject is not independent from them. But again, yes, the editors listed all seems to be minors so the quality of journalism might be questioned. Not to seem ageist, but I would like to see what others have to say for the same. But yes, I myself have not been able to find any other sources apart from this.

Previously soft deleted, the new page does not establish notability and is largely reliant on self-sourcing. This party is not registered with Elections Canada and is not running candidates in the 2025 Canadian federal election. Wellington Bay (talk) 00:10, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
