- I haven't found any in-depth information about recent developments, most of my searches for TV5 Davao even on Rappler are scarce, it doesn't help that Philippine TV is one of my weakest points, the community is heavily reliant on misinformation and also false claims that the station existed before Martial Law, I replaced one of the sources with one from Rappler which covered the same as the previous source, but the problem with the Big 3 networks is the amount of churnalism and shownalism that I find, which is excessive RandomMe98 (talk) 22:20, 9 June 2025 (UTC)

- What a mess. (For the record, the ping did not work, so I am only seeing this now.) The problem right now is there is not nearly enough sourcing to sustain this article. This is a source availability problem in large part, as is typical in the Philippines. If a Davao publication were available for the years covered in station history and covered it reasonably well, there could be an article here. But that is not the case. Redirect to TV5 Network.

Delete or Redirect to Bernie Mac Show. The subject notability guideline #1 for entertainers state "The person has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions". Subject does not have notable roles plural. Her only non-guest role/non-appearance as self is the Bernie Mac Show. Her portfolio of guest roles is also small. She otherwise on IMDB has three guest roles. I will also note that while IMDB is considered generally unreliable (per Wikipedia:IMDB), the roles mentioned in the article do not show up there. A redirect would be a similar outcome as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Emmy Clarke who had a similar noted for one thing situation of a filmography of one recurring role as a child over a decade ago and no roles since.

- Keep:
According to WP:NOTNEWS, it discourages documenting every routine or transient news event, this is not one. The article does not summarize daily news, but rather a major event.
Presents lasting consequences, such as shifts in the decades long insurgency, since the leader of Maoists Nambala Keshava Rao was killed in the event, who leaded the group for many years and regarded as tye most wanted maoist in india.
WP:EVENT says that a military or political event may be notable if it has received significant coverage in multiple reliable sources and has broader implications.
The 2025 Abujhmarh clash involves organized armed conflict in a geopolitically sensitive region indicating lasting socio-political relevance beyond simple news reporting.
The clash reflects a pattern of ongoing Maoist insurgency, which is widely documented and considered a national security concern. This establishes enduring encyclopedic interest.
The event also even got analysis from post-event sources establishing that the event has had a sustained impact.
Many military clashes or terror-related events (even with limited source dates) are maintained on Wikipedia because they are part of wider historical and conflict narratives (eg: minor battles in Iraq War, Naxalite incidents in past decades).
Deleting such an article would be inconsistent with established treatment of similar entries like:
2010 Dantewada ambush
2021 Sukma-Bijapur ambush
2013 Naxalite attack in Darbha valley
Artiicles like this exists which may not have a broader implications on the insurgency but the 2025 Abhujmarh Clash, truly have a impact on the insurgency.

- KEEP or MERGE with the other clashes. The incident itself is notable due to press coverage by RS. Dualpendel (talk) 19:48, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Stong Oppose: The Above mentioned 2025 Bijapur clash is part of a wider Naxalite-Maoist Insurgency in india, which have been ongoing for decades. As of 17 June 2025,the above mentioned incident was the single event causing most casualities for the rebels in 2025. The incident was reported by foreign media which is rare and would not occur if it was a regular clash. Only Four articles exist in 2025 linked to incidents in Insurgency, the other three being 2025 Abujhmarh clash, 2025 Bijapur Naxal attack, Operation Black Forest.
- As in a wider perspective, articles that portray mass rebel casualities have been targeted recently for deletion. For example:-
- While articles that portray Government casualities or articles that are poorly written or portray less notable events and casualties are kept in wikipedia like:-
- The above mentioned articles are of the same insurgency as the 2025 Bijapur clash, many are less notable event than this. Deleting the article will automatically shift the neutrality of wikipedia, with possible portrayal of only Government casualities events and downplaying rebel casualities by deleting those articles.

- Strongly Oppose:
- The Article is part of a wider Naxalite-Maoist insurgency in india which have been ongoing for decades, its a low-level insurgency for past many years so mass casuality events are rare.
- Only two articles represent a mass casuality event in the insurgency in the whole year of 2024 one is above mentioned and the other being 2024 Abujhmarh clash, so it not just a regular news and the event have been reported by Foreign media outlets, which is rare.
- From a wider perspective, articles that represent mass casualities of the maoist rebels have been targeted for deletion recently. Eg:-
- It is part of a larger operation ongoing since 2024 to end the insurgency by March 2026.
- While articles which portray Government casualities have been left out from deletion even though they are underdeveloped and represent less casuality events like
- Deleting this article and leaving out the others will shift the neutrality of the Insurgency, with possible downplaying rebel casualities and highlighting government casualities observed for wikipedia viewers. Golem469 (talk) 08:47, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

- See here: "He was Finland's best breaststroke swimmer from 1978 to 1986. He won a total of 41 Finnish championships, 29 of which were in individual breaststroke, 11 in relays and one in the 200-meter individual medley. He broke the Finnish breaststroke record several times." Cited to the book Urheilukunnamme sööttäänjat – Suomen olympiaedustajat 1906–2000. That is a very strong indication of notability. SIGCOV is in Finnish newspaper archives. Have those been searched? BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:34, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- I don't speak Finnish. Unless you understand it? It's a very difficult language. LibStar (talk) 01:12, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- If you have no understanding of Finnish or how to search for sources on Finnish topics, you should not be nominating for deletion articles on extremely accomplished (freaking 40+ national championships...) Finnish people. BeanieFan11 (talk) 02:20, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- That is ludicrous. One of the most ridiculous things I've heard in 18 years on Wikipedia. There is no ban on people nominating articles for deletion because they don't speak their language. LibStar (talk) 03:24, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- I did not say you need to be a fluent speaker, but you should be able to search Finnish-language sources. If someone isn't able to properly look for sources on some near-certain notable subjects, why should they be nominating them for deletion? BeanieFan11 (talk) 03:43, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

- I don't speak Finnish. Unless you understand it? It's a very difficult language. LibStar (talk) 01:12, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. Clearly notable. The Finnish Wikipedia article is based off the book Urheilukunniamme puolustajat – Suomen olympiaedustajat 1906–2000 (Defenders of our sporting honor – Finland's Olympic representatives 1906–2000) and describes him as Finland's best breaststroke swimmer for a decade, a national record holder and someone who won freaking 41 national championships. He still gets mentioned briefly today, e.g. ~100 words in this book ("...Lappeenranta Swimmers was one of the most successful swimming clubs in Finland in the 1980s, with Martti Järventaus as its brightest star...") and here and here, though the last is paywalled so I can't tell the extent of the coverage. He is also apparently covered here per Google Books, but the source is offline. It does not appear that any Finnish newspapers have been searched, but it is exceedingly clear that he would have been covered significantly in them based on his accomplishments. BeanieFan11 (talk) 03:52, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep Per BeanieFan's quick book search that indicates SIGCOV. Kingsif (talk) 11:04, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

- Keep - Being a publisher of the article, wants to correct certain points mentioned by nominator as rationale for deletion.
- It is not a You Tube series. It was aired on a national broadcast network, confirmed here by DAWN as network and its air time is mentioned right next to its title.
- There is not a single social media link presented as a reference in the article. Also, sources mentioned such as DAWN, The Nation, Samaa TV, Independent Urdu, The Express Tribune, BizAsiaLive (UK-based TV ratings), and ARY News, all are editorially independent platforms with established reputations, satisfying the requirements of WP:RS.
Now addressing the WP:GNG and WP:NENT, a television program is considered notable if it has been the subject of non-trivial coverage in multiple published sources that are independent of both the subject and each other. The sources listed covers Aapa Shameem from several perspectives regarding its casting, thematic depth, audience reactions, debut performances (Zoha Tauqeer is the main lead of the show and makes her debut with the show, therefore, few sources emphasizes on her specifically), and overall reception. Notably, DAWN’s critical column “The Tube” and The Express Tribune’s YouTube trend (as serial is uploaded on You Tube by the broadcast network official channel) analysis offer analytical content, not just superficial mentions or press releases. These types of coverage meet the threshold for non-trivial, secondary analysis. More over, presented below are the sources covering the show significantly and are indepedent of the subject.
- South Asia - The article is published in a regional magazine which highlights the plot, cast and broadcast details of the show.
- [Independent Urdu - Here the article is in local language and title of the source is translated as "Aapa Shameem: Good for few and Bad for the others". Independent Urdu is the Pakistani variant for the british The Independent.
- DAWN - Gives an insight of the show confirming the broadcast and theme of the show. Not just a trivial mention.
Like mentioned above there are other sources besides them as well which makes the article notable in context of WP:GNG and WP:NENT.Reshmaaaa (talk) 21:16, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep; I am satisfied with the sources presented by Reshmaaaa and their analysis and think this article about a popular show with a notable cast can be kept in the Main space as it meets the notability requirements.--Artus Sauerfog Dark-Eon (talk) 10:36, 17 June 2025 (UTC)
- Delete : Coverage are entirely biased and have promotional tone. clearly lacks neutrality. Most are in the form of releases or passing mentions. Not a single in depth article to support notability. Rahmatula786 (talk) 10:52, 17 June 2025 (UTC)
- Can you please mention which sources are just passing mentions? Are you saying DAWN and Independent have been biased while publishing with regards to their editorial standards? Do you think [1] and [2] are not in depth? Reshmaaaa (talk) 13:31, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

- Keep per WP:SIGCOV. The rule has a number as its middle name: BLP1E, not BLP2E nor BLP3E. Life is now a series of viral moments, and it might have been always this way. We have never deleted an article, as far as I can recall in the tens of thousands that I've participated in, where a person who was known for two separate events to be deleted, with the exception of political candidates being held to a higher standard, to screen out all but perennial candidates. The consensus might be faulty but hasn't changed yet. Bearian (talk) 01:17, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

Additionally, viral incidents—even when notable events—do not automatically justify an independent article. Often, these topics are better suited to be covered within broader articles or merged elsewhere, to avoid creating pages based primarily on fleeting internet attention.
In short, there is no meaningful coverage establishing lasting notability beyond two viral moments. Subject does not meet inclusion criteria under notability guidelines. Momentoftrue (talk) 02:00, 17 June 2025 (UTC)
As for the notification, fair point — I’ve since followed up accordingly. But let’s not pretend context doesn’t matter here. When an article’s inclusion is based on passing GNG through incident-driven press, it’s absolutely relevant to examine how those assumptions play out across similar cases. This isn’t personal — it’s procedural. If the article doesn’t hold up to scrutiny, then discussing the basis for its creation is part of the AfD process, whether someone casts a !vote or not. Momentoftrue (talk) 19:54, 17 June 2025 (UTC)
Let’s be real: this article wasn’t created organically based on strong SIGCOV. It was drafted in the middle of an edit-a-thon with a political advocacy goal in mind — your own words confirm this. That’s not just relevant context; it’s a red flag under WP:NOTADVOCACY and WP:POVFORK. When coverage is shallow, event-driven, and duplicated across multiple bios, and those bios are systematically produced during representation-focused drives, then yes — it's absolutely fair to raise this *within* an AfD. This *is* about one article, but it’s also about how it came to exist — and that’s entirely valid to scrutinize. If the same sourcing pattern (brief viral news, no depth, no sustained independent attention) keeps surfacing, and if those articles are being batch-produced in advocacy-driven sprints, then AfD isn’t the wrong place to raise that. It’s *the exact right place*. Pretending otherwise is a convenient way to deflect from policy, not defend it. No one’s questioning your good faith or motivations. But let’s stop pretending good intentions immunize content from policy scrutiny. Wikipedia has inclusion standards for a reason, and editorial accountability doesn’t get suspended because the subject is part of a social justice campaign. You’re welcome to disengage from the discussion, but you don’t get to dictate what parts of the sourcing and editorial history are “appropriate” to analyze. This isn’t a personal attack. It’s a necessary look at a growing pattern that’s diluting the encyclopedia with biographies that do not meet WP:GNG, WP:SIGCOV, or WP:BLP1E. Momentoftrue (talk) 20:11, 17 June 2025 (UTC)
What was said — and what I stand by — is that creating multiple articles during themed edit-a-thons focused on identity, without ensuring those subjects meet core notability criteria, creates an appearance (key word: appearance) of prioritizing representation over encyclopedic standards. That’s not an accusation — that’s pattern recognition based on edit history and stated affiliations. If that observation makes you uncomfortable, maybe the focus should be on ensuring the articles can withstand scrutiny, not on painting valid criticism as “uncivil.” As for “bludgeoning,” let’s stop misusing that word. This is a content discussion, not a vibe check. If several keep !votes repeat the same flawed reasoning — such as mistaking fleeting, incident-driven media coverage for lasting notability — then yes, those points get addressed. That’s not bludgeoning. That’s defending the integrity of Wikipedia’s standards. You don’t get to cry “bludgeon” every time someone challenges your rationale with actual policy. And if you truly believe raising concerns about how and why biographies are being added — especially when notability is marginal — counts as a personal attack, then you may need to re-read WP:NOTCENSORED, WP:DISPUTE, and WP:OWN.

- Weak Keep (might as well get back on topic here), The topic is covered in multiple reliable sources that cover the subject of the article (i.e. WP:NBIO). These include WP:THEHILL, The Advocate, Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 391#LGBTQ Nation, WP:CBS, Pocket Gamer. These cover multiple events and seem to pass WP:BLP1E per my reading of the actual policy (not an imagined version only viewable in my head; see above for context). It's week because I do think its close to the edge and lots of it is passing. I actually think (unlike some it seems) it's reasonable to disagree with this reading of the sources. P.S. I'm unlikely to respond to a bludgeoning wall of text under this, so feel free to save it unless you have something new to add. Many thanks, in advance. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 22:26, 17 June 2025 (UTC)

I'm not sure if it's necessarily useful to keep an article on a subject whose notability seems to hinge on "rage baiting" since reporting on that is likely to remain questionably notable/reliable at best, but I'd love to be proven wrong on those fronts.

One source refers to a Partido Nacional from the 1870s that supported Mariano Ignacio Prado and was a "third way" between the Civilista Party and the supporters of Nicolás de Piérola (pg 160-161). A second source recognizes the Partido Nacional as opposing Piérola. A third source talks about the Partido Nacional being an important force in the 1870s, "imploding" after the War of the Pacific (pg 39), then giving rise to Piérola's Partido Demócrata (pg 47). A fourth source states that
A inicios de 1882, se fundó el Partido Nacional que reunía a diversas figuras del pierolismo
[At the beginning of 1882, the National Party was founded, which united diverse figures within Pierolismo]. This doesn't match up with the three aforementioned sources, but it does match the source presented by Chidgk1, which states that the Partido Nacional was founded in early 1882 by "elements close to Piérola". Maybe someone else would have better luck sorting this one out? PrinceTortoise (he/him • poke) 23:52, 23 June 2025 (UTC)- I machine-translated the link that Chidgk1 provided above. It discusses the machinations of various politicians aligned with Nicolás de Piérola and against the collaborationist Provisional President of Peru, Francisco García Calderón, during the Chilean occupation of Peru. The Spanish Wikipedia article I quoted above summarizes this paper's description of the Party pretty well - it was basically a collection of Piérola associates and "ephemeral" in duration. Not much of a real party, in other words.
- The paper is not about the National Party per se but rather the maneuvering. It could be used to maybe establish a weak notability. It's telling that the Spanish Wikipedia covers this period in detail but only mentions this National Party in passing. The party does not have an article.
- I suggest we redirect this article to Peruvian resistance movement in the War of the Pacific and merge the material I quoted above from the Spanish Wikipedia to a small, new section on political developments in the resistance article.

Jähmefyysikko (talk) 07:00, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- When I set my vpn to Finland I can see that link otherwise not. Google translates the paragraph as:
- “Obtaining funding certainly guided the change in direction of the temperance movement at least in the 1980s. When municipal temperance appropriations were directed to purchasing services, temperance organizations became service providers. For example, the People's Democratic Temperance League maintained a Companion Phone, where people could call, among other things, about their substance abuse problems. The service served as an alternative to similar services offered by parishes. Money for initiatives and projects was received from RAY.” Chidgk1 (talk) 11:33, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- The other paragraph directly discussing KDRL is:
In 1948, the communist temperance movement established its central organization, the People's Temperance Work Center. When the central organization fell into the hands of the Taistolaiset in 1974 under the name People's Temperance League, those supporting the party's majority faction founded their own central organization, the People's Democratic Temperance League. Until its merger into the Finnish Lifestyle Association ELO in 1993, there were three leftist temperance movement central organizations operating: one for the Social Democrats, one for the majority Communists, and one for the Taistolaiset. Since 2012, labor movement-based temperance organizations have operated together with other temperance organizations under a common organization, EHYT ry. The key driving force behind the mergers of temperance organizations in both 1993 and 2012 were the wishes and guidelines of the funding organization RAY during financially tight times.

I originally proposed the deletion of this article with the concern, "This article only cites a primary source, while the rest of it is unsourced. I tried searching for secondary sources (including books and scholars) but found none. Therefore, this topic most likely fails the general notability guideline." User:BOZ then removed the PROD and suggested that the article be merged to Monopoly (game)#Spin-offs, which I thought would be inappropriate because all of its text is pretty much unsalvageable, not to mention that the one primary source used to cite one sentence is now a permanent dead link. There was also the suggestion of redirecting to said page, which I was a bit skeptical about because the only mention of it there cites About.com (known today as Dotdash Meredith), which is a situational source according to the perennial sources list. (For the reliability of the source in the context of board games, I'll leave that up to Wikipedia:WikiProject Board and table games.) Basically, I'm still favoring this article's deletion. 1isall (talk/contribs) 18:23, 23 June 2025 (UTC)

- Iran transition government (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)
Everything here that mentions the government is a primary source from the transitional government itself, or a related Iranian diaspora organization. There are no secondary sources for things besides statements from Pahlavi.
Source analysis:
- 1 is a Twitter link.
- 2 is a diaspora Iranian organization, primary source.
- 3 is the closest thing here to a secondary source, but also fails to establish this as a clear new government, if anything it provides notability for an article called "Munich Convergence Meeting" rather than the government. The article itself states that the meeting did not intend to "launch a new organization."
- 4 talks about the conference but doesn't mention the government.
- 5 to 19 are all either Twitter links, or reliable sources that discuss Reza Pahlavi's statements, but do not actually discuss the transitional government.
- 20 to 27 are primary sources from the government themselves.
- 28 to 34 again, are news articles discussing Pahlavi and the prospect of regime change.
In short, there are no secondary sources that establish the transitional government is notable, and no news articles that even mention it existing. As such I don't think it meets notability guidelines. HadesTTW (he/him • talk) 17:17, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- I also want to note that a single news article (from a secondary source) that elaborates on what the transition government actually is would likely at least establish it exists, its just that everything listed so far either is a primary source or a news article of Pahlavi saying that he has a "transition plan" which is distinct from the fully fledged organization described in this article.

- Keep - It is fairly common for Wikipedia to have articles about governments in exile, (such as Ukraine Salvation Committee, Free Joseon and Transnational Government of Tamil Eelam) and for self-proclaimed alternative governments, (such as Government of Peace and Unity and Government of National Stability and the Revolutionary Government of the Republic of Indonesia). Therefore I see no reason why a government in exile / alternative government being formed for Iran by a prominent member of the Iranian royal house should not warrant such an article.Dn9ahx (talk) 21:33, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Merge: I wouldn't reject notability entirely as it is quite often discussed among opposition groups especially with recent events. I do though have some hesitancy about a full article since it's mostly proposals at this time and not any institutional government right now (PM, cabinet, etc). Because of this, I think the material in the article should be transferred over to the Iranian opposition page, and it can separate out as an article in the future if an actual transitional government is formed. TeddyRoosevelt1912 (talk) 22:40, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- keep (note that I wrote the article): The topic is very notable and naturally governments in exile of non Anglo-Saxon countries tend to be covered mainly by diaspora newspapers in their native languages.

This particular government in exile is in formation since February and has grown particularly relevant following the Iran Israel war. Overall I wholeheartedly agree with Dn9ahx KiltedKangaroo (talk) 08:11, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:CRYSTALBALL. If the threshold for notability is coverage by diaspora groups and media, then any opposition or separatist movement could have a "transition government" article for some hypothetical future. Should there be a Chinese transitional government article or US dictatorship article just because some authors in reliable sources have speculated on these topics? No, of course not, per WP:CRYSTALBALL. A claimed exile government is different in that it at least exists, but having an article dedicated to a transitional government that is merely speculative seems WP:TOOSOON.

- Speedy redirect to Telephone numbers in Spain, and do the same with Telephone numbers in Ceuta and Telephone numbers in the Canary Islands, baffling why these would be separate articles. Reywas92Talk 19:40, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep because it resembles a colony, and the numbering system may not be identical to that of mainland Spain. It would be helpful if the article were to include the number ranges assigned to landlines, mobile numbers (broken down by carrier if necessary), short numbers such as 112 and other codes that are more or less standardized in the European Union, and carrier selection codes such as 10288 for AT&T in the United States. Removing this article would leave a red link in Telephone numbers in Africa. I wonder whether the Morocco telephone numbering system has reserved a range of domestic prefixes or dialling codes to reach Melilla from Morocco, even if they are not in use. The numbering system of the People's Republic of China, for example, reserves a range of numbers for Taiwan, and Republic of Ireland numbering system used to allow numbers in Northern Ireland to be called with a different prefix rather than the United Kingdom's country code of 44. LeapTorchGear (talk) 01:38, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

- Comment. The reliability of Ealing.News can be debated, but there is no consensus available (WP:RSPS). As an WP:EVENT, there should be WP:SIGCOV from multiple reliable and independent sources. Such coverage should be specifically about the event and references should not rely on routine announcements or speculation. Therefore, the formation of a shadow cabinet or strategic manoeuvring by an opposition party does not automatically establish notability for the election itself ([17]). Declared candidates are a benchmark and references highlighting official candidate declarations, campaign funding, etc., are essential. QEnigma (talk) 07:11, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

- Keep — Thanas are administrative units and police stations both, they contain relevant and important information, deleting them is not that beneficial, yes upazila system exists and most rural thanas' administrative values have shifted to upazilas but its not the same with urban thanas, its not "non-notable", not every thana receives a 190 page summary, but also not every thana has a page on Banglapedia, these pages do, you see the wards and administration? These thanas linked with Metropolitan Police are extremely important, plus if you saw issues with the pages i created, you couldve improved them yourself, i dont have all time in the world, i have exams, assignments, homework, projects, chores and i also contribute to other platforms, i still try to improve and create pages in Wikipedia though but it would be better for Wikipedia too, if contributors improve the pages i created and many others created, thats the whole purpose, you improve pages and create some yourself, if you see a issue, you try to improve it or see whether it has importance and then talks about possible outcomes and discussions.

- Keep. This, and all of the other listed police station articles follow similar formats and contain similar levels of information, and are recently created in early 2025. Each seems to have a legitimate second source, and therefore fails WP:GNG. Rather than delete these articles, it might be better to treat each as a stub and wait for the Wikipedia Community to expand the articles. Revisiting these articles in one year, say June 2026, to see if they have been expanded or not, and perhaps then decide if they are legitimate candidates for deletion.

- Keep Airport Thana which according to Banglapedia, (https://en.banglapedia.org/index.php?title=Airport_Thana) in an administrative area home to 166,870 people. It has its article on Banglapedia, which most of the 650 police stations do not. A good rule of thumb to use here would be to see if Banglapeda has an article on the subject, which would demonstrate that this particular thana is a legally recognised, populated place which are presumed to be notable. The articles would have to be reworked to focus on the area rather than the police station. In case there is no article, it's a police station, which usually is not notable.

This article lacks sufficient reliable sources and appears to reflect a non-neutral, possibly partisan narrative. It fails to meet Wikipedia’s standards for notability, sourcing, and neutrality. Much of the content is unsourced or poorly cited, and it presents a historical conflict in a way that seems one-sided, potentially violating Wikipedia's policies on neutrality (WP:NPOV) and verifiability (WP:V).

Delete This looks a case of WP:SYNTH as none of the sources discuss this subject in the context of this very specific timescale. Instead it's a bunch of meh sources not addressing the overall subject and being bolted together. That's classic synth and this feels like its either a fork from a wider more general article or should be in a wider history of the conflict if specific sources addressing the conflict as a whole are not available.

This article will definitely expand. There are so many images going viral on social media that I can't publish them due to copyright.

- Comment – Source assessment below:
- [20] - I got a '500 internal server error', but it looks like a news article about the league, which likely included Ramos' signing.
- [21] - This is a (potentially self-completed) list of statistics and basic information.
- [22] - One paragraph covers Ramos.
- [23] - Statistics.
- [24] - Facebook.
- [25] - Facebook.
- [26] - VERY brief match report which notes that Ramos scored.
- [27] - Facebook.
- [28] - Match stats.
- [29] - Match stats.
- [30] - Match stats.
- [31] - Club stats.
- [32] - List of players who played for the college who went on to sign pro contracts. Ramos is mentioned. One line.
- [33] - YouTube.
- [34] - Facebook.
- [35] - Facebook.
- [36] - Non-independent source, though it does give a fair amount of coverage, it cannot count towards GNG.
- [37] - Facebook.
- [38] - Facebook.
- [39] - Notification of Ramos winning an award. Not sigcov.
- [40] - Not sure it would be in-depth enough to constitute sigcov, but it's another non-independent source, as he was alumni at this university, and cannot count towards GNG.
- [41] - I would say this is sigcov.
- [42] - Non-independent source.
- [43] - Not actually available in my region, but seems to be a run-of-the-mill match report, which likely includes a reference of Ramos.
- [44] - Notification of transfer. Not even an individual one.
- [45] - Non-independent and not sigcov.
- [46] - This appears to be a blog, but would be sigcov (IMO) if it is allowed.
- [47] - Statistics.
- [48] - 404, but it looks like a squad announcement. Not sigcov.
- [49] - Match stats.
- [50] - This article is about his brother, Dylan, and makes no reference to him.

- As I said before, it is natural that for an athlete from the US Virgin Island the most substantial part of the coverage is through social media. I think it is valid WP:COMMONSENSE. Svartner (talk) 18:51, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- As much as I would like to agree with this, the problem we then face is that the social media coverage comes from non-independent sources. Of the social media links in the article, 5 is the academy he was playing for announcing a touring squad, 6 is the club he was playing for at the time announcing that he was moving to a new club, 8 again is the academy stating that a number of their players were looking for contracts in Europe, 14 is a YouTube video that provides little information, and is just clips of him playing, 15 was deleted or the account went private, but regardless, it was still non-independent as it was the page of the club he played for. 16 is the same club announcing that he would return for the 2020 season, 18 is a university announcing that they had recruited Ramos, and 19 is his club at the time announcing the news that the university had recruited him.
- While I would support contributions to sigcov coming from social media (i.e. YouTube interviews/news segments, Facebook interviews/in-depth coverage), I do not think this applies here. Zênite (talk) 19:00, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

- Comment-I make this comment and ask this question every time someone nominates an article like this one for deletion. What motivates someone to want people to have less access to information? I understand Wikipedia has guidelines but what motivate someone to take the time and effort to defend the removal of access to information. I understand if someone made one friendly appearance for Saint Martin and the only reference is the NFT profile, but there is so much information available here. He’s playing in a fully professional league, captain of his national team, will likely become their most capped player. Again I ask, why try so hard to wipe someone from Wikipedia existence?--Gri3720 (talk) 20:35, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- I think the better question here is "Why do the US Virgin Islands, or at least sports journalists from the nation, not care about their football team's captain enough to even write basic news articles about him?" From my experience, journalism on football players in the US and it's territories has always been awful, as it's a nation which only loves and appreciates those who are successful. While, in other countries, there is generally at least one good article written about a mundane third/fourth division footballer, in the US it seems they just do not care. It's not even a population issue either, as I have found multiple articles on Chinese players who have done nothing of note in their careers. Zênite (talk) 09:38, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep I am not that impressed with Zênite's assessment, however it gives a little indication on sources. A X for the PDF scan of a small town newspaper called Highland News-Sun seems notable enough. I'd say the article squeaks by enough with those sources considering the issues of WP:PRIMARY. Govvy (talk) 08:59, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
- There are two Highland News-Sun articles cited on this Wiki page. The first contains the following information about Ramos:
Joshua Ramos, senior, Sebring - Ramos showed great vision and was the team-leader in goals scored for the Blue Streaks. “Joshua controlled the field very well and had incredible vision,” coach Peters said. “He led the team in goals with 14 for the season and in assists at 15. He was a natural leader and it showed off and on the field and his presence will be missed.”
- The second contains the following information about Ramos:
and with my other brother playing soccer it was kind of a mandatory thing for me to play because my whole family plays.
- This would be due to the second article being about his brother, Dylan. We don't even know for certain that this quote is even about Joshua, as Dylan precedes this by talking about another brother who is a goalkeeper.
- I feel like I'm losing my mind here. These are not nearly enough for sigcov. Even if we ignore the fact that most of the references are primary, the sources in this article are brief. If the Facebook articles went into great depth about Ramos and his life, fair enough, but they simply do not. Zênite (talk) 09:28, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

This company doesn't seem to warrant a standalone article per WP:NCORP; sources I could find seem to fail WP:ORGCRIT (I'll add a breakdown below).
I think the article should be deleted or redirected to Brandix. But the (declared paid) article creator reverted an earlier change to a redirect, and reverted my recent attempt at a move to draftspace, so I'm coming here to reach a consensus.
Some additional context: The paid creator originally started the article as a draft in AFC. Once it was rejected twice at AFC,[54] they copy and pasted the article directly into mainspace,[55] and then possibly blanked the original rejected draft.[56] I attempted to explain that they should go through AFC on their talkpage when I moved it to draftspace, but they simply reverted the move with no explanation, and then expanded the article with more press releases. - Whisperjanes (talk) 03:18, 16 June 2025 (UTC)

There are numerous online sources going beyond trivial mentions locatable with a five-minute search, including [57], [58], and [59], as well as plenty on Google books on search terms for former banks which are part of this one's history, such as "Poľnobanka and "UniBanka", as well as "HVB Bank Slovakia".

- There is a common misconception that completion of principal photography is enough to meet WP:NFF. On the contrary, it says, "Additionally, films that have already begun shooting, but have not yet been publicly released (theatres or video), should generally not have their own articles unless the production itself is notable per the notability guidelines." The film has not yet been released and is only tentatively scheduled to be released in five months so it would not meet notability under that guideline.

- CNMall41, the point of highlighting post-production was to clarify that it exceeds the outright notability fail criteria. I also note separately that there appears to be enough reliable coverage, and I do share your concerns around WP:NEWSORGINDIA. But the examples I cited, The Hindu and Variety both are considered generally reliable. Plus both references have bylines that indicate non-promotional reporting. I grant that other sources may be context dependent and I haven't examined all, but I cannot make the determination of churnalism (which is likely to be true for any film/entertainment related article to some extent in my opinion) based on current sources to support a deletion. — WeWake (talk) 19:52, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- I don't think we share the same concerns with NEWSORGINDIA unfortunately. Most NEWSORGINDA sources come from reliable publications. It's the content that needs to be looked at closely to determine if the source can be used. The Hindu is a reliable source but the specific reference is unbylined churnalism which can also be seen here, here, and here to name a few (notice the dates of publication). This is typical promotional press you see prior to a film's release. Can you show anything about the production that is noteworthy or notable under WP:NFF? For Variety, it is bylined by the same journalist who writes about all Indian film for that publication which they likely get from press releases or promotional announcements. See one of the many churnalized references with the same content. --CNMall41 (talk) 21:47, 9 June 2025 (UTC)

1. Significant coverage in reliable, independent sources (GNG): Contrary to the nomination, the article cites multiple reliable, third-party sources with non-trivial coverage:
These sources reflect broad, non-trivial coverage across national and international outlets, satisfying WP:GNG. 2. Meets WP:ANYBIO: Recognized honors The subject was awarded notable distinctions:
These are significant, non-self-bestowed recognitions that meet the threshold for WP:ANYBIO. 3. Creative and scholarly output (WP:CREATIVE, WP:AUTHOR): Dr. Leander has authored:
This meets WP:CREATIVE and WP:AUTHOR based on quality, distribution, and recognition. 4. Additional contributions and presence:
5. Draft history and intent: Yes, the article had earlier drafts. However, the current article reflects significant effort to meet notability, with references from high-quality sources and no promotional tone. Previous draft iterations should not be held against a now-verified and well-sourced article. Conclusion: This subject clearly meets Wikipedia notability criteria for authors, cultural figures, and honorees. The article can be improved, but deletion is unwarranted. Recommendation: Keep and improve. |

Additional point — Mainstream Indian media coverage strengthens WP:GNG The subject has been covered by Indulge Express, the arts and culture vertical of The New Indian Express, a major national newspaper in India. This feature article highlights his Indo-French-Armenian literary work and his cultural event at Lalit Kala Akademi: Indulge Express article – May 10, 2025 This is a **significant source** from **mainstream Indian media** and is both **independent** and **non-trivial**, thereby satisfying the core requirements of WP:GNG. It reinforces the fact that the subject’s work has attracted attention in recognized national publications with editorial oversight. This is in addition to other sources like The Times of India, ThePrint, and Business Standard, confirming that the article meets general notability criteria through multiple independent, reputable media sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thehugolion (talk • contribs) 14:22, 23 June 2025 (UTC) Additional point — Recognized by Armenian Ministry of Culture and conferred the "Arvestaget" title In 2024, the subject was formally recognized by Armenian cultural institutions and awarded the honorary title of "Arvestaget" by the Republic of Armenia for his contributions to the preservation and promotion of Armenian culture, literature, and memory. This recognition was:
This satisfies WP:ANYBIO which includes individuals who have received significant national or international honors from recognized cultural or governmental bodies. It also strengthens his profile as a notable figure in Indo-Armenian literary diplomacy and heritage work. Such recognition from a national ministry of culture is notable, rare, and equivalent in value to inclusion in state-level halls of fame or cultural orders often cited in other AfD keep arguments. Thehugolion — Preceding undated comment added 14:36, 23 June 2025 (UTC) Additional Notability Basis — National Honors and Cross-Cultural Recognition from Armenia’s Ministry of Culture The subject was conferred the honorary title of “Arvestaget” by the **Republic of Armenia** in 2024 for his cultural, literary, and philosophical contributions to Armenian heritage and Indo-Armenian relations. The title was formally conferred with the **backing of the Armenian Ministry of Culture and the Avetik Isahakyan Central Cultural Center**, a national-level institution. This distinction is documented through official references and photographs cited in the article. Such **official cultural recognition from a national government** directly satisfies WP:ANYBIO under WP:NBOOK criteria under: _"The person has received a well-known and significant honor at a national or international level."_ WP:AUTHOR criteria 2 and 4 , book being part of exhibition in India's premier Government National Academy of Art - Lalit Kala Akademi with International attendence- Armenia and France. This parallels arguments used successfully in other biographies (e.g., state-wide halls of fame, high-profile fellowships), and carries special weight given the cross-cultural nature of the award involving three nations (India–Armenia–France). The recognition was linked to the subject's books and artistic collaborations that have been independently covered in national and international press (Republic of Armenia government centre Avetik Isahakyan Centre,Indian Embassy website, Times of India, ThePrint, Business Standard, Indulge Express). Combined with national press coverage and scholarly output, this title substantiates a strong claim for notability. Keep --Thehugolion (talk) 15:19, 23 June 2025 (UTC) |

Llm-generated page including llm-generated sourcing. The sources bear minimal relationship to the text they are citing. For example, the first source in the lead supports essentially nothing in the lead, and similarly does not support its use in the Women's Contributions and Gender Disparities section/paragraph.

- Delete per WP:ESSAY. The topic could conceivably be notable, but the article is just a roundabout listing of general issues related to informal economies, with practically nothing specifically said about the informal economy in South Asia. Nicely-arranged but informationless LLM drivel. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 10:59, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. I am the original creator of this article. I would like to clarify that "Informal economy of South Asia" was written entirely by me without the use of any large language model (LLM) or AI tool. At the time of writing, I had no knowledge of ChatGPT or LLMs — I only learned about them later during a Wikipedia discussion, which is visible on my user talk page.
This article was written using basic tools like voice typing, grammar correction, and manual research using Google and YouTube. My goal was to contribute meaningful, regionally relevant content. I am from Pakistan; my native language is Urdu, but I studied English literature, which may explain why my writing appears formal or academic — but it is entirely my own.
I want to address the sourcing issue directly. Contrary to concerns raised, the sources used in this article are real, relevant, and were selected manually by me. They reflect authentic research on the informal economy, with references from organizations like the ILO, World Bank, UNDP, academic journals, and regional institutions. These are not hallucinated or AI-suggested sources — they were chosen carefully through topic searches on Google Scholar and official websites. If any citation format is incorrect or a link is too abstract, I am willing to revise and improve the formatting. But the content is valid and based on serious research.
I also wish to clarify a comment about my “sudden replies” possibly being AI-generated. Actually, I use voice typing and grammar correction tools (like Google Keyboard), which allow me to respond quickly and clearly — this does not mean I used a chatbot. In fact, AI-generated responses take time to write, review, and copy. My communication style is shaped by my education and tools, not by AI.
I have openly admitted that I used AI assistance in **other projects**, such as the article "Prevention of World War III" (for referencing help), and for Urdu translations (because my Urdu writing is weak). But this article — “Informal economy of South Asia” — is my own, and it reflects a more personal, manual writing style.
Finally, the article was accepted, remained stable for more than 7 days, and can be further improved if needed. I respectfully request that it be retained and improved, not deleted.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

this article does not meet Wikipedia's general notability guidelines. The topic lacks significant coverage in reliable, independent, and verifiable sources. Most of the references are either partisan, locally produced, or non-scholarly, and the event is not discussed in academic or mainstream historical literature. Furthermore, the article appears to violate Wikipedia’s neutral point of view policy by presenting a one-sided narrative without acknowledging other perspectives or providing balanced context. Without reliable sources and a neutral tone, this topic does not merit a standalone article on Wikipedia.

:Keep Anadolu agency cites multiple historians and scholars, the exact pages as well. I don’t see what’s so unreliable about this? Are you saying that Azerbaijani and Turkish sources are inaccurate and unusable now simply because they choose to document about a genocide their people went through? The atrocities are even mentioned by Iranian historians like Ahmad Kasravi who is an eyewitness of it all. The page uses encyclopedic language and is understandable for readers. How is the content and title biased? The Urmia massacre done in revenge for Mar Shimun (a major part of Cilovluq) for example, multiple sources document about this—including English sources—such as the historian Mehrdad Kia with his book “The Clash of Empires and the Rise of Kurdish Proto-Nationalism, 1905–1926 Ismail Agha Simko and the Campaign for an Independent Kurdish State” page 121. 2A02:AA1:1164:2A69:617B:D586:307A:A0A3 (talk) 11:25, 23 June 2025 (UTC)- non-WP:GS/AA user --HistoryofIran (talk) 14:36, 23 June 2025 (UTC)- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Discrimination, Events, Iran, and Azerbaijan.

Keep Sorry but you are very incorrect, Cilovluq is very mainstream and famous in Azerbaijan. So instead of nominating everything for deletion simply because you don’t research enough, maybe go on google and search it up. They have even done excavations and found bones, there is also photographic evidence and eyewitness testimony as provided in the page. Also I still don’t think you understand, the sources are literally academic and from eyewitness testimony, and also historians? You know this event is highly documented in books right? It’s very known that the Assyrians and Armenians under Agha Petros committed atrocities in order to establish an Assyrian region and get rid of the Muslims in Iranian Azerbaijan. And the page literally provided perspectives from other authors?!? It includes reliable sources and a neutral tone, how about you provide some examples when nominating the whole page for deletion. The page has a total of 70 sources, all of which is accessible in one way or another. And we can add even more if that’s necessary, the genocide deserves more recognition from English readers. The Muslim people of Iranian Azerbaijan deserve recognition. the ottomans literally cried when they recaptured the areas from the Christian’s, it was truly horrible. The muslimsof Iranian Azerbaijan have tried to get recognized, an English page on the matter is a good way to get recognition. 2A02:AA1:1164:2A69:617B:D586:307A:A0A3 (talk) 11:15, 23 June 2025 (UTC)- non-WP:GS/AA user --HistoryofIran (talk) 14:36, 23 June 2025 (UTC)- Delete: Support per nom.

A biography that only has 2 different sources (different pages from the same website are still 1 source). One of which is a non-independent obituary.

A battle that lasted four days, involved multiple APCs, seven tanks (one of which was damaged), as well as special forces, and left around 9 to 12 participants dead or wounded—including one member of the SAJ special forces—is clearly not a small skirmish. If we're going by that logic, why not start an AfD for the Battle of Oraovica too? GermanManFromFrankfurt (talk) 14:47, 9 June 2025 (UTC)

- Keep. The battle does hold significance, it was the very engagement that allowed the NLA to expand its activities into the Kumanovo region, as mentioned in the sources. These events were also widely reported in Western media, such as the LA Times, CNN, and the BBC. Furthermore, it marked another escalation of the conflict, as the NLA targeted Macedonian politicians, including Deputy Interior Minister Refet Elmazi and State Secretary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Ljube Boškoski. GermanManFromFrankfurt (talk) 14:36, 9 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep
While the Brest ambush in 2001 may appear to involve a relatively small number of casualties, we must not forget that brest was a significant route for the NLA to reach the Karadak zone. This conflict was an insurgency, and it didn't require heavy losses to have an article.

This covers the same topic as Common rail#Acronyms and branding used and does not meet WP:N. It is simply a marketing term, used by Honda in the European market between 2002 and 2008.
The article was created as a redirect and remained one for 16 years, when long-term vandal Sevgilerde tried restoring it. It was then turned back into a redirect by ToadetteEdit, Rosguill, Ponyo, Boleyn, and a fifth editor who has since vanished. "i-CTDi" is simply a badging applied by Honda to two separate diesel engines, the N22A engineand an Isuzu engine modified by Honda. When Honda updated the N22A engine, they switched to the i-DTEC acronym. Both of these are simply marketing terms used by Honda for their diesel engines, just like Renault's DCi, Mercedes' Cgi, and Hyundai's CRDI - all of which were turned into articles by the same vandal and correctly turned back into redirects. Any of the meaningful content used here would be more suitable at Honda N engine or Kenichi Nagahiro (someone just needs to create that).
Also see D-4D, TDCi, Cdi, CDTi for additional, analogous redirects. Mr.choppers | ✎ 19:07, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
- Hmm.. I see some interesting history here. A year ago, I BLAR'd the article claiming that it was non notable, but got quickly reverted. Since then, at least two other reviewers agreed that it should be redirected to common rail, but their attempts were both reverted as well. I currently see that Andy Dingley disagreed with the views of three unique reviewers and restored the article to the version made by the sock together with expanding the article. It looks different than what I initially saw so expect a commentary within the next 24 hours. But now I doubt that the history might warrant a report at ANI, who knows? ToadetteEdit (talk) 19:20, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
- So I took a review of the article, and frankly enough, I do not know if it will pass WP:GNG or not. I see scholary journals discussing the subject in detail, but they are written by people at Honda, so I do not know whether the journals are independent enough or not. I also see that the first source is from Honda,so it does not establish notability in the context. I also see other websites, but they are in favor of the car models other than the subject itself. Unless it can be justified that at least two sources away from Honda show SIGCOV, Redirect to common rail with no prejudice to page development in the draftspace so as to be submitted via AFC. ToadetteEdit (talk) 11:13, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
- I would like to add that, as far as I can tell, the SAE article is specifically about the N22A engine – it's paywalled but the blurb makes no mention of the i-CTDi marketing name. Mr.choppers | ✎ 13:46, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
- Why would anyone be motivated to create an article Kenichi Nagahiro , just so that you can delete it and call them a vandal?
- We have policies here based on WP:N, WP:V and WP:RS. You are ignoring these in favour of some personal disagreement with another editor. Even if they're guilty of whatever it is you allege, this has now grown to the detriment of the overall project. Andy Dingley (talk) 19:59, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
- WP:GOODFAITH, please. Compare DCi, Cgi, CRDI, D-4D, TDCi, Cdi, CDTi. Mr.choppers | ✎ 00:55, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
- Or a better message is to both of you to be separate one another and assume good faith. In particular that the comment above does not address the content but rather to the nominator, which is short of the Wikipedia:Civility policy. ToadetteEdit (talk) 11:13, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
- You don't get to hide behind 'good faith' when you're the one repeatedly describing anyone who disagrees with you as a vandal. First time you did this to me you were taken to ANI over it. You then repeated the same term. So please don't pretend that you didn't know that at least one of us here finds that a deeply offensive allegation. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:10, 8 June 2025 (UTC)

- Comment It might be worth noting that the article title probably should be Stacey Gregg (the page with that name has been deleted a few times previously). Don't think she was ever known as Stacy (without the e). She was also known for roles in the US as Stacey Maxwell, eg in The Virginian, The Monkees and Batman. In the UK she's known for roles in Crossroads https://www.newspapers.com/image/893742133 and playing Sandy in Grease alongside Richard Gere eg https://www.newspapers.com/image/840906998 There's a few more hits at https://www.newspapers.com/search/results/?keyword=%22Stacey+Gregg%22++®ion=gb-eng worth checking the British Newspaper Archive as well, see also this two-page articles from the TV Times in 1971 (page 8-9) https://mcmweb.co.uk/tvtimes/1971/Nov%206th%201971.pdf Piecesofuk (talk) 08:54, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
- Keep As Stacey Gregg she meets WP:NACTOR. She has also been credited as Stacey Jefferson and Stacey Richardson. As well as voicing the roles mentioned in the current article, she played Daffy in all episodes of Tottering Towers and Nurse Baxter in 23 episodes of Crossroads from 1977-1978. On stage, she played Sandy opposite Richard Gere in the British premiere of Grease (musical), first in Coventry and then on the West End. As well as the coverage found by Piecesofuk, there is coverage and information about more roles in the British Newspaper Archive. I'll add more info and sources to the article. There appears to be another Stacey Gregg, probably also notable, who is director of Here Before and co-creator/director of other shows. RebeccaGreen (talk) 18:33, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

Apparently non-notable parish church in metro Detroit. The only source provided is an official parish history, which is obviously non-independent. A WP:BEFORE search turns up nothing usable except a local news piece on its 155th anniversary, which is not enough on its own for a WP:GNG pass as a standalone page. Open to a redirect to List_of_churches_in_the_Roman_Catholic_Archdiocese_of_Detroit#South_Region, where it is mentioned, but bringing it to AfD since it has already been draftified and returned to mainspace without improvements, so I didn't think a WP:BLAR was appropriate in that situation.

Page was originally created in 2010 and has had only minor changes since then. It's never contained any references as far I can tell (NB: I'm still a newbie at reading the changelogs, so I could've missed one).

- • Per my review, he appears to meet some of the criteria for WP:MUSICBIO. He has charted on Apple Music, received significant and consistent airplay according to several press sources, and produced and featured in a movie that was nominated for awards — with the nomination also mentioned on Van Vicker’s page. I would recommend a ‘keep’ while the article continues to be improved. Klighnight (talk) 06:56, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Apple Music charts are WP:SINGLEVENDOR charts and cannot be used to establish notability. Dalyboy did not chart on any country's official music chart. This particular subject does not meet any criterion outlined in MUSICBIO or WP:GNG. Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 14:43, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- I’d like to seek clarification regarding his notability, as reflected on Van Vicker's Wikipedia page, specifically in relation to his film Heart Breaker’s Revenge, which he (Dalyboy) produced and starred in. The film reportedly received nominations and won awards in some categories at the San Diego Black Film Festival, Nafca, and the MPAH Awards.
- While I’ve noticed that some of these accolades are referenced in press coverage and on the Wikipedia pages of his colleagues, I’m unsure if they’ve been sufficiently highlighted on his own page to support his notability under the WP:NACTOR guidelines, particularly given his dual profile as both an actor and musician.
- Kindly advice. Klighnight (talk) 15:01, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- I don't see any evidence that he starred in the film you mentioned. Per the film's IMDB page, Van Vicker's character went by the name Dalyboy Paul. I don't see Dalyboy Belgason listed among the film credits. Even if he he had a major role in this particular film, it won't justify a keep vote because this particular film fails WP:NFLIM and is not notable. Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 15:10, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Upon reviewing the film’s IMDb page (see: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt16116480/fullcredits/), it’s clearly stated that Dalyboy Belgason is credited as the director, writer, and cast member.
- According to WP:NFILM, particularly the section on Other evidence of notability, point #3 states: “The film has received a major award for excellence in some aspect of filmmaking.” The said film has indeed received multiple significant nominations and has won awards in some categories, with Dalyboy himself playing a role in the production and as part of the cast.
- Given this, it raises the question of how the film would fail to meet this criterion when it evidently satisfies the award recognition requirement.
- Furthermore, under Inclusionary criteria in the same WP:NFILM guideline, it’s standard practice to mention other notable figures associated with the production. In this case, I have repeatedly referenced Van Vicker, who, based on his body of work and existing recognitions, clearly meets the WP:NACTOR notability threshold.
- From my review, both the film and its key cast members, including Dalyboy, appear to meet the necessary criteria for inclusion as outlined in the guidelines.
- Unless there’s another specific aspect or standard we might be overlooking, I’d appreciate it if you could kindly point it out for clarity. Klighnight (talk) 15:50, 23 June 2025 (UTC)

- Well, youre confusing yourself here. You claimed that Dalyboy starred in the film, Heart Breaker's Revenge. I debunked that by pointing out that he didn't per info on the film's IMBD page. You than proceeded to mention a different film altogether. Heart Breaker's Revenge and Ex Games are not the same films. Just for your info, IMDB isn't a reliable source. I cannot find a credible source online that mentions or discusses the film Ex Games. Both Heart Breaker's Revenge and Ex Games fail WP:NFLIM and are not notable. If you disagree with me, I challenge you to write separate articles about them and let's see if both articles won't be deleted. Which major award did the film Ex Games win? Versace1608 Wanna Talk? 16:13, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- I’m honestly wondering which IMDb page you’ve been checking, because it’s clearly not the same one I’m referring to. Here — https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3756776/ — it’s publicly stated that Dalyboy Belgason wrote and directed the film. It’s also worth noting that this appears to be a duplicate of https://www.imdb.com/title/tt16116480/, and both are evidently the same movie. This is further confirmed by its official YouTube listing here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDlBSXvxxEE — Heart Breakers Revenge (Van Vicker, Sarodj Bertin, Billy Williams) Ex Games.
- I honestly don’t understand why this back and forth is necessary. If there’s been an oversight on your part, it’s fair to acknowledge that and move on. I personally don’t have an issue with the page being deleted — I’m only pointing out verifiable facts based on the same WP:NFILM and WP:MUSICBIO guidelines which were cited as reasons for its deletion, but which, quite evidently, the subject meets in certain areas.
- This same film and its associated awards have also been accepted to establish notability on pages of his colleagues, so it’s difficult not to notice a double standard in this case. That said, I have no intention of dragging this further. Being asked to create a separate page for the film, when there appears to be clear systemic bias in how these guidelines are applied, isn’t something I’m interested in pursuing any longer.
- I’ll leave it at that. Klighnight (talk) 16:47, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- None of this matters because IMDb is a user-generated and disqualified source; please find more reliable sources. Nathannah • 📮 19:45, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- My concern with this entire process is that it now appears to be a poorly thought-out plan. It’s also evident that several of you are voting ‘delete’ without properly reviewing the page or considering the defense presented.
- Firstly, the nominator initially claimed Dalyboy wasn’t in the movie. I addressed this by providing evidence that Dalyboy produced, wrote, and acted in Heart Breaker’s Revenge. Secondly, while the nominator accepted (albeit indirectly) that the same film and its awards were sufficient for establishing notability for other actors involved, you're now insisting that Dalyboy must provide additional sources, which is a clear double standard and contradicts Wikipedia’s policy against systemic bias.
- Thirdly, it was claimed the article failed WP:MUSICBIO, but I demonstrated that it meets criterion #11 of that guideline.
- Frankly, the tone and direction of your responses today suggest a personal bias. Your initial comment about my writing style had no relevance to the points I raised, and your latest dismissive remark, “none of this matters”, further confirms that.
- Let me be clear, it’s acceptable if the article is ultimately deleted, but I have every right to challenge any reasoning I believe is flawed. Even the nominator has shown bias in this case, stating that if a movie page is created for the aforementioned movie, it will be deleted, before it even exists. Wikipedia is a community project, not owned by any of us, and most of us have careers beyond this platform. I’d prefer not to continue this back and forth, but I needed to state this for the record. Klighnight (talk) 21:11, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- We require proper and reliable sources that meet our standards, and actual conversations about notability that don't involve LLM text. If you cannot do that or find sources that help prove the subject's notability, there's nothing more we can do here. And because Nigerian TV is a mess of pay-for-play as far as video presentations, there's no way to easily prove the subject meets MUSICBIO criterion 11. Nathannah • 📮 22:43, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Also, why would a Cuban join the American army? You realize how that makes no sense at all, I hope. Nathannah • 📮 22:59, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
- Again, the claim that Nigerian TV and radio media operate entirely on a payola system is not only insulting to the industry but also to the broadcasters, anchors, and journalists working there. I don’t know what personal issues you have with the Nigerian media, but this reinforces my earlier point, both you and the nominator (also appearing to be Nigerian) only nominated this article for deletion because it was written by and about a Nigerian. It reeks of bias and a lack of fair opportunity.
- Even major platforms like Forbes and international media sometimes accept paid features, would it then be fair to say everything on those platforms is paid for? Generalizing like this is unreasonable.
- As for the subject of this article, I never claimed he had TV plays since I couldn’t verify that. I clearly referenced his significant rotation on a national radio station, and even a basic X (Twitter) search of the track would show it got airplay on multiple national stations. Does that mean every station was paid? That’s part of the systemic bias I’m addressing. This is enough to prove he meets criterion 11 of MusicBio. A quick check on X will show more national radio stations playing his songs. If this same criterion is valid for determining notability for foreign artists, why should you then decide a Nigerian artist be exempt? Is there any rule stating certain countries are excluded?
- Lastly, regarding your claim about a Cuban joining the U.S. Army, a simple check would’ve shown that U.S. permanent residents can enlist (https://www.usa.gov/military-requirements). If he met those criteria, it’s valid.
- I’ve already cited one source for his award via a colleague’s page yesterday and will continue adding more independent coverage as I find them.
- Gracias. Klighnight (talk) 05:08, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- You’ve openly admitted that he meets criterion #11 of WP:MUSICBIO, but insist it won’t count because the national radio rotations happened in Nigeria. This clearly highlights bias in your judgment, denying him the same standard others have benefitted from. Klighnight (talk) 05:19, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- We're asking for sources to airplay. Solid, reliable sources. Please add them, because we don't accept hearsay. And for you to think I was attacking the entire Nigerian broadcast industry because of a few bad apples is a serious reach. Nathannah • 📮 14:37, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- Your comment — “And because Nigerian TV is a mess of pay-for-play as far as video presentations, there’s no way to easily prove the subject meets MUSICBIO criterion 11” was unfairly broad. It implies the entire Nigerian broadcast industry operates on payola, which isn’t accurate. If you’d said “some”, it wouldn’t have raised concern. Nigeria has produced exceptional broadcasters now thriving at BBC, CNN, and other reputable platforms abroad, despite isolated issues in parts of the industry.
- Also, there’s a cited source, an independent report from P.M. News, confirming the song’s strong rotation on Beat FM, a respected national station with UK presence. Further checks on X (Twitter) also show airplay across major stations like City 105.1FM, Wazobia FM, Cool FM, Rhythm FM, and Soundcity Radio. Unless we’re suggesting all these outlets operate under a questionable system, dismissing this airplay isn’t balanced.
- For reference, here are tweets from the official handles confirming the airplay:

- My challenge remains your insistence on taking down this article. I’ve emphasized repeatedly that you’re free to do so, but I’m setting a precedent here. Since you joined this conversation, you’ve either downplayed my contributions or indirectly discredited my country’s media.
- 1. You claimed the subject failed WP:MUSICBIO. I pointed out that if Apple Charts is WP:SINGLEVENDOR, then criterion #11 applies, instead of acknowledging this, you dismissed Nigerian media as payola-driven.
- 2. I highlighted that this subject is also an actor-producer. The nominator wrongly claimed otherwise, and I provided IMDb proof of his credited roles in an award-nominated film, yet no acknowledgment, after you both argued.
- 3. Every argument you raised, I’ve countered with evidence. Rather than correct the nominator for a poorly reviewed nomination, you doubled down.
- 4. You made, deleted, and rephrased your last comment, while i carefully addressed each with facts. The PM News article is an independent, credible source widely used across the encyclopedia, the national rotation he enjoys was clearly noted in the article, with a cited source from the media outlet. Unless, of course, you’re suggesting that this media organization also operates a payola system. Alongside, in my last comment i showed you visible proofs from X of his radio airplay’s from verified stations (which you’ve seen), and i believe is enough to strengthen his notability.
- At its core, this entire conversation reflects systemic bias, something I’ve respectfully called out. The subject meets WP:MUSICBIO and WP:NACTOR as written, and countless articles have stood on less.
- Cheers Klighnight (talk) 21:12, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
- Even in my previous comment where I shared evidence from X showing several national radio stations playing his song, I clearly stated, “While X posts aren’t standalone sources for notability, they reflect public records from verified national radio accounts.” Additionally, I’ve pointed out that the article itself cites a reliable source confirming the national rotation.
- Yet, each time a request for information is met with verifiable facts, you acknowledge the subject meets that particular criterion, but because you’re intent on seeing the article taken down, you continue to shift the goalpost by asking for more. Klighnight (talk) 21:25, 24 June 2025 (UTC)

- That said, I do appreciate that you retracted your earlier statement about payola (which I previously highlighted) and took the time to explain the reason behind your comment, its deletion, and rephrasing.

- Thank you for your vote. You can check the page, they’re already attempting to vandalize it using IP accounts, with other global editors reverting the changes on the main and talk page. This clearly shows bias and a targeted attack on the page. It’s a failed plot, and that’s why I’m even responding. Klighnight (talk) 06:24, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
