November 2021

 * DINO HAZARD: nominated at AfD; notified 07:06, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I'm very skeptical of this page but I'm listing as AfD rather than CSD in case someone with better Portuguese can find evidence of notability. The page appears to claim notability for a "franchise" consisting of a book, a video game, and a toy figure.  They all appear to exist, but I can't find meaningful coverage of the franchise beyond a few passing references to game reviews and blogs reviewing the toys. I don't think it passes WP:GNG as I can't find significant coverage of the franchise itself, separate from the individual products.

May 2022

 * Katharine Jewitt: nominated at AfD; notified 06:03, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:GNG and WP:PROF. The page has a lot of minutiae that don't add up to notability.  As to WP:GNG, I don't see multiple meaningful references in reliable sources.  As to WP:PROF, I don't see the 8 criteria under WP:NACADEMIC being met -- per that page, "When judged against the average impact of a researcher in a given field, does this researcher stand out as clearly more notable or more accomplished?" Dr. Jewitt has quite a long list of activities (from ESL teacher to prison educator) but no indication that any of the awards are particularly meaningful (e.g., nominated for an "Inspire Women" award but did not win; nominated as "one to watch" in a book that does not seem to be a reliable source; etc) or that she has had an outsized impact in her field.  I'd love to be wrong about this one, but it feels like a bunch of non-WP:RS stacked up.

June 2022

 * Casey Michel: nominated at AfD; notified 05:31, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:AUTHOR in that while he has written a well-reviewed book, the author does not appear to meet WP:GNG nor WP:BIO, nor is the book "a significant monument" in the field, nor is it the subject of separate notable works. Sources on the page include sites affiliated with the subject and a number of everyday book reviews, none of which establish notability for him.  Possibly just WP:TOOSOON if the author is a rising star, but a few positive reviews of a book don't add up to notability.  Google News search reveals many appearances by the author that aren't themselves WP:RS, additional work written by the author that can't itself establish notability, and additional reviews that don't cross the threshold for WP:AUTHOR.  I'll note that the page was created by an AFC, so I might be wrong on this one and I might just be missing something obvious.

November 2022

 * Marchesi (family): nominated at AfD; notified 07:32, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This has been tagged as unsourced since at least 2009 and shows no sign of becoming sourced, and tagged as non-notable since 2019. A 2007 attempt at the page provided more information, all of which was unsourced. Ultimately there's no chance for this page until something is published in a reliable source.

February 2023

 * Gregory Goffredo: nominated at AfD; notified 08:40, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This extremely short and minimally-sourced article might have BLP problems, but for the fact that some unreliable sources suggest that the subject died several years ago in a garbage truck accident. As a result, it seems like this person is most notable for being a relative of someone who isn't notable enough to have his own page either (redlink: Mauro Goffredo).  There is one plausible source that's not in the article  but that article is more about yet another guy who also doesn't have his own page (redlink: Joe Ligambi).  Overall fails WP:Basic in that there are not multiple independent in-depth sources even after his death, and it now seems unlikely that there will ever be more.

March 2023

 * Melchor F. Cichon: nominated at AfD; notified 06:32, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:BIO or WP:AUTHOR in its current form and I am unable to find any better sources that are not circular references back to Wikipedia. It reads like a resume, and the only two current sources are a Geocities site and a Blogspot blog; neither appear to be reliable sources per WP:RS. If those two sources are disqualified then it's an entirely unsourced biography of a (presumably) living person. Based on the text as written, it still appears to fail WP:AUTHOR as there is no evidence that this author's work is particularly well-known or important to the field (two awards that lack their own pages; no evidence that it was "the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews").  Page has been tagged since 2011 as needing help.
 * Robert College International Model United Nations: nominated at AfD; notified 05:21, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Previously deleted following a discussion in 2010 and speedily in 2012. I'm restarting it as a discussion in case anything has changed in the intervening decade, but I'm still not seeing anything that meets WP:GNG or WP:EVENT. There are no independent reliable sources cited on the page that provide any in-depth coverage of the subject, nor can I find any in an English-language search of Google.  There are a few blogs and Model UN guides that refer to this event, but none are WP:RS.  In the absence of reliable sources then the answer must be deletion.

April 2023

 * Social Media Management Tool List: nominated at AfD; notified 08:58, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NLIST in that while each of these appears to exist, this grouping has not been presented by any WP:RS and there is no clear definition of what should be included in this list. See also WP:LISTCRUFT ("Determining membership of the list involves original research or synthesis of ideas"; "The list is unlimited and/or unmaintainable"). Perhaps better served by several categories rather than a list.
 * Coach Henry E.V.K: nominated at AfD; notified 05:59, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This was deleted via deletion discussion on April 13, 2023. It was nominated for CSD as a trivial recreation of a page previously deleted via discussion. Improbably, that CSD was contested. So now we're here.  Just like last time, the page fails WP:GNG and WP:SINGER. There is a single short article in the Daily Trust that does not meet "significant" coverage and is not "multiple" sources. "Beautiful Arewa" does not appear to be a reliable source (appears to be a blog at best). The remainder of the sources are just links to tracks on Apple Music which are not reliable sources.  Google does not bring up any missing sources, nor does there appear to be any new material since the last deletion discussion.  Delete and salt.

November 2023

 * List of United States Supreme Court decisions considered the worst: nominated at AfD; notified 05:18, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: There are no definitive criteria to determine which are the "worst" Supreme Court decisions, and thus it fails WP:LISTCRITERIA. Any attempt to classify decisions as "best" or "worst" will rely on the opinions, original research, and point of view of editors.  Any politically consequential case has been praised in some media and villified in others.  I can think of at least 20 other cases that might belong on this list based on their impact on society, their legal reasoning, and whether I agree with the outcome.  Was Roe or Dobbs the worst decision?  Certainly depends on who you ask.  Was Bush v. Gore the worst decision?  Depends on who you ask.

February 2024

 * Tendence (company): nominated at AfD; notified 05:57, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: The tone is obviously promotional, but even if that were resolved I am skeptical that this company could meet WP:GNG or WP:CORP. Most of the citations are to the company's own website, which are obviously not independent. Another (repeated 3x) are to Lenta.ru, which is blacklisted. Another (repeated 2x) are to Vz.ru, a generally unreliable source. The strongest sources appear to not be focused on this company (e.g. this page about the founder's prior project ) or appear to be regurgitated press releases (e.g. ). I'm putting this up as AfD rather than CSD because I don't have enough ability to search in Russian for additional reliable sources; it's possible that it could be saved if there are unused independent thorough sources.
