Academy of Truck Accident Attorneys

Organization does not meet WP:ORG.

I proposed for deletion, was seconded by Bearian, article was deprodded by JRkeys123 who is the creator of this article as well as Joseph A. Fried (see AFD here), Law Enforcement Guide to Truck Driving Safety Standards (currently also proposed for deletion by me and seconded), Understanding Motor Carrier Claims (also proposed for deletion and seconded).

There is perhaps one article providing something close to substantial coverage of the organization itself. This one[1] and that is arguably merely WP:ROUTINE. My WP:Before didn't turn up anything else. Jahaza (talk) 00:42, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

List of playing cards related anime and manga

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Creator objected to proposed deletion. They provided sources on the article's talk page, but I'm not really convinced by them; one is a YouTube video by Mother's Basement (an obviously unreliable source), another is a BackerKit page for a TTRPG, and yet a third one isn't a meaningful source at all, but just a content tag on CoroCoro's website. The others they linked are at least from sites that could conceivably be utilized in Wikipedia, but they're all mostly discussing Yu-Gi-Oh, with a couple of them mentioning other series in passing mostly in relation to Yu-Gi-Oh. Several of the not-outright-unreliable or user-generated sources here are from WP:VALNET, and most of the rest are just from Anime News Network. The current state of the article is generally poorly sourced, and I don't see the potential state looking much better. It doesn't look like this passes NLIST. silviaASH (inquire within) 00:25, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: There is no substantial change in the article after the objection from Setenzatsu.2 (talk · contribs). The issue with the user is clearly a WP:IDHT case, and I wonder why they did not receive any kind of sanction after being reported to ANI. Xexerss (talk) 03:08, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

From looking at the discussion, it seems to me like they went inactive for a few days and no one followed up on it before the topic got archived. They also never responded to the discussion and didn't edit between May 21st and 25th, so I'd say it was a pretty clear case of ANI flu. Obviously this AfD isn't the right venue to discuss their conduct, but given the quite obvious WP:RADAR issues it should probably be dealt with somehow. silviaASH (inquire within) 05:09, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Just noting first finds: There's a brief comment on the topic in this magazine; Handbook of Research on Teaching Literacy Through the Communicative and Visual Arts, Volume II, p. 254, provides some more serious commentary on card games within anime and manga fandom, although mixed with other activities. Can anyone see if there is something relevant on p. 19 of A Kid's Guide to Anime & Manga? This web article looks at one angle of the overall topic; not completely sure if this is a reliable source. Daranios (talk) 15:26, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Manga: The Complete Guide, p. 122, has a sentence of comparison between card games related to manga vs. video games. Trading Card Games For Dummies has a 13-page chapter on trading card games related to anime, manga and comics. Daranios (talk) 19:51, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I think it should be possible to create an article about card-themed anime and manga series (I can't think of a particular title at the moment). The problem is this list article and its poorly sourced and worded content. I don't feel like I'm reading an encyclopedic Wikipedia article, but a Fandom article or something like that. Xexerss (talk) 00:19, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, even if this article topic is notable, I'm not sure a list is the appropriate way to cover it, and I think WP:TNT applies. silviaASH (inquire within) 00:22, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and possibly rename to List of card games related anime and manga or something more simple. As by the discussion above, I don't think WP:NLIST is actually a problem. I also don't think this is a case of WP:TNT, which would mean that nothing here is usable in an encyclopedic article: The introduction needs sources, and then probably a rephrasing in accordance with the sources. But this is primarily a list, so that's a minor issue. The list below could nicely fulfill the purpose of navigation which is one of major reasons to have list at Wikipedia, if non-relevant examples were removed. There's enough blue links here to still constitute a proper list after such a trim. Other examples should in my view only be included if their inclusion can be verified by a reliable secondary source, solving the other issue raised in the nomination. So in total, spelling out an inclusion critereon and implementing it can save this through normal editing, which means deletion is not appropriate in accordance with WP:ARTN and WP:ATD. Daranios (talk) 09:56, 27 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and rename to List of card games related anime and manga per above. ArvindPalaskar (talk) 16:39, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - No actual need for this list. REDISCOVERBHARAT (talk) 13:19, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting. Editors arguing for Deletion seem unnecessarily focused on the article creator which is not relevant in establishing a subject's notablity. Editors supporting Keep have the right idea by discussing whether or not this article meets WP:NLIST and by examining sources. I'll give editors a little more time to analyze factors that matter and a source analysis would be useful here.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:29, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am unable to find anything approaching WP:SIGCOV for this Dutch cricketer. Possible redirect targets are List of Netherlands first-class cricketers and List of Netherlands One Day International cricket records. JTtheOG (talk) 00:12, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am unable to find anything approaching WP:SIGCOV for this Dutch cricketer. I am unsure if there is a suitable redirect target given his (singular) national team appearance. JTtheOG (talk) 00:09, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ripe Banana Skins

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Seems to fail WP:GNG and WP:NBAND. Did a search per WP:BEFORE and found nothing relevant in news nor books. Google only pops up music host sites. The only sources I found with specific coverage was [2] which reads like an advertisement and [3] which looks like it raises WP:UGC issues. The article is also entirely unsourced and the external links are either dead or were taken over. 🪷 nahida 00:02, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
