August 2020

 * Marty Phillips nominated at AfD; notified 03:14, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Does not appear to meet WP:NSINGER. I take it criterion 1—[h]as been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself—is the only relevant criterion here. The best I could find for coverage was this, which is a history of a single church in South Carolina (and may not even be about him). The lone reference in the article does exist, but there is only a passing mention of Phillips in it. As for "What a Meeting in the Air", his best-known tune, there's this, which doesn't look like enough to me. I can't think of a good redirect or merge target, nor can I verify the claim that he was honored at the Old Fashioned Gospel Singing and Musical Convention in 1991. (And I doubt that would confer notability even if it were true.) Notability tagged since 2014.
 * Tavara nominated at AfD; notified 06:11, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Quite simply: I don't think this is real (and so, a fortiori, fails WP:GNG). I would call it a hoax but there is a single source to what appears to be an RS, but it's in Turkish and only in "snippet" view so I don't know what it says. I tried searching both "davara" and "tavara" with no luck. This initially looked promising but I'm pretty sure it's unrelated and was picked up by Wikipedia-scraping software or an unscrupulous archivist. I would have prodded this if not for the one source.
 * Marty Riskin nominated at AfD; notified 16:03, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A non-notable cartoonist for Massachusetts newspapers. Best I could do by way of WP:SIGCOV was this trivial mention in a college textbook and this local history of Lake Quannapowitt and Wakefield, Massachusetts. Was anthologized in a couple of books of "year's best cartoons" but I don't think that's enough to meet WP:NARTIST or WP:NAUTHOR. Article used to claim he won something called the "Clayton Kirk Award for Political Satire" until I looked that up and realized it was fake. Notability tagged since March 2009.
 * Native Energy nominated at RfD; Target: Intertribal Council on Utility Policy (notified) 00:15, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I just created this redirect by moving the page to Intertribal Council on Utility Policy because that's what the article was about. Native Energy is an independent organization affiliated with the Intertribal Council, but they are distinct organizations. For that reason, I suggest deleting the redirect as misleading.
 * Barkham Burroughs' Encyclopaedia nominated at AfD; notified 04:59, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I really wish this were notable, but I don't think it is. There's this (name drop), this (another name drop), and a single article in the Hartford Courant from 1984 called "Dusting Off Encyclopedia After 95 Years", which is a nice story about its republication in the '80s but doesn't get it to pass WP:NBOOK on its own. Just don't think there's the coverage here (although I don't have access to that many historical newspapers, which is where I'd expect the coverage to be if it does exist). All the citations are to GoodReads. Notability tagged since 2013.
 * Granite Horizon nominated at AfD; notified 05:24, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Pretty clear fail of WP:NCORP in my view. I could not find any WP:SIGCOV. Citations are to press releases or government databases that index literally all the companies within the relevant jurisdiction. They have raised a grand total of $115,000 in funding. Notability tagged since 2013.
 * Mifren nominated at AfD; notified 14:41, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Long-defunct WP:PROMO for failed social networking site that does not pass WP:NCORP. All the refs are to press releases or its own (now non-existent) website. Only hits I can see in RS are for Multi Input Fuzzy Rules Emulated Network, a completely unrelated—and also apparently non-notable—concept in robotics.
 * Sierra Holmes nominated at AfD; notified 01:05, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I think this article fails WP:NACTOR. Sourced only to interviews in niche websites. The best I could find for coverage was this, which doesn't look like an RS; this is another interview; as is this. She competed on a season of Scream Queens and did not win. Notability tagged since 2012.
 * World Orphans nominated at AfD; notified 03:39, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I think this fails WP:NCORP but it's arguable—hence this sitting in CAT:NN since 2016. There was indeed a 2-page article in Inc about it in 2007: basically, World Orphans did not do its due diligence with overseas partners and ended up out $70k. Beyond that, there's not much else significant I can find. There's this in the Gaylord Herald Times (small local newspaper) and this (maybe an RS, but just a namedrop). I think this calls for a deletion discussion.
 * Chaperone code nominated at AfD; notified 05:22, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This article claims that its subject "has been identified as one of the main regulatory mechanisms underlying cell function in biology". In support of this extravagant claim, it cites two papers from 2013. One has been cited 57 times; the other has been cited 131 times. "Chaperone code" gets a grand total of six hits at PubMed. In light of this, I have a very hard time believing that this article is verifiable.
 * Vilant Systems nominated at AfD; notified 14:09, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A non-notable firm, now part of Turck. All the hits I found were in press releases or namedrops in trade journals. I don't think it makes sense to merge to Turck because there's nothing substantive to merge, and I don't think it makes sense to redirect to Turck because they're not similar enough that a redirect is warranted. So I suggest deleting instead.
 * Singh-Ray nominated at AfD; notified 14:43, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable manufacturer of photographic filters. All the hits in RS are technical descriptions of a photo (e.g., "taken with a Singh-Ray filter"). Tagged for notability since 2009.
 * VSXu nominated at AfD; notified 16:16, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I think this fails WP:NSOFT. Prod contested by an IP who added this to the article. Looks like an interview with the founders. After I removed deadlinks, all the other sources are to current or archived versions of its website.
 * Rick Sopher nominated at AfD; notified 04:08, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I declined this PROD because I think it's arguable, but I think the subject of this article fails WP:BASIC. He's occasionally quoted in the Financial Times, but I can't find coverage of him. He's a rich businessman: that's it. The article claimed he was awarded the Légion d'honneur, which would presumably get him past WP:ANYBIO, until I looked it up and could not find any coverage in RS indicating that this was true.
 * Elmer Pendell nominated at AfD; notified 17:55, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A potentially non-notable eugenicist. I am seeking consensus on this, as notability has been tagged since 2012, the issue is highly charged, and I'm genuinely on the fence. I have just added the best sources I could find, and I'm not sure they're enough for WP:GNG. (I seriously doubt WP:NPROF is viable as a criterion.) I genuinely welcome any comments. A speedy was quite reasonably declined back in 2012.
 * CarProperty.com nominated at AfD; notified 04:13, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable niche real estate website. I would have prodded it but it has some trivial mentions in the New York Times and Chicago Tribune . I think it's a pretty clear WP:CORPDEPTH fail.
 * Revival Soy nominated at AfD; notified 06:29, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable soy supplement. They apparently like to donate samples of their products of scientific studies (see, e.g., ) but I'm not seeing WP:SIGCOV of the company. Refs to those studies are a large quantity of the refs in the article; the others are largely to unreliable "bizjournals.com". I found a single article in the Winston-Salem Journal from October 26, 2003 called "Soy Successful" which is about the company, but (1) I don't have access to the whole thing; and (2) I don't think this one article is enough for notability.
 * Saïd Akl nominated at AfD; notified 15:51, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Very confusing. It's currently disambiguated from Said Akl. The Said Akl described in this article appears to be the father of the Said Akl described in (in French) (appears notable). But I can't find anything about this one. I suppose this article could be entirely rewritten to be about the Said Akl described in the obit I cited, but that would be a bizarre kind of ATD, wouldn't it? frwiki and arwiki seem only to have articles on the very famous Said Akl. Hopefully someone can help clear this up.
 * Eva Mroczek nominated at AfD; notified 17:46, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Scholar of Judaism who appears to fail WP:NPROF. Article is outdated: she's now an associate professor (i.e., not an endowed chair or university professor) at the University of California, Davis . Oxford University Press publishes many, many books like hers a year. Her book has been cited 116 times according to Google Scholar. Awards listed on her faculty profile are WP:ROUTINE. Other online hits like  are open letters she's signed; her work in the Los Angeles Review of Books and Religion Dispatches is exactly what mid-career academics publish all the time. Seems like she does interesting work, but doesn't appear notable—at least as yet.
 * Parrots International nominated at AfD; notified 04:29, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Great name for a non-notable parrot conservation association. Best I can do by way of WP:SIGCOV is, which is not very good. Tagged for notability since 2010.
 * David Henke nominated at AfD; notified 05:55, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:BASIC. He's a run-of-the-mill business exec at some tech companies. Hits are mostly press releases; there's, but it's a namedrop.
 * East Hill Church nominated at AfD; notified 13:23, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparently non-notable church. There are hits ( (namedrop) (WP:ROUTINE, I think)), but not enough for either WP:NORG or WP:GNG. Being a large church in a mid-size city does not confer notability, IMO. Tagged for notability for 11 years.
 * Poesybeat nominated at AfD; notified 13:37, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable WP:NEOLOGISM. Only "WP:SIGCOV" is in a self-published book . Refs are specious.
 * Jordanian Arab Party nominated at AfD; notified 14:55, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable political party. It exists, and that appears to be it. Article in arwiki has exactly the same sources as this one—which I don't think are enough—and is also a stub.
 * Big TV! nominated at AfD; notified 19:04, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Procedural nom, as it was previously prodded. No indication of notability. Hits I can find (e.g., and  appear to be non-RS promo sites.
 * MaltaProfile nominated at AfD; notified 21:12, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Another procedural nom for a non-notable website. 2017 prod contested by creator with no rationale.
 * John Helvin nominated at AfD; notified 02:29, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable magic enthusiast (I would say "magician", but can't even verify that). The only hit I could find was for an edition he self-published of, a possibly notable 16th century treatise on magic.
 * Vykunta Raju nominated at AfD; notified 03:41, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This looks like a resume for a subject who does not meet either WP:BASIC or WP:NPROF, but I'm not sure. He has some publications (e.g., ). The article also says he's on the editorial board of ''Pediatrics and Therapeutics: Current Research", but its website does not look super legit to me.
 * Polymer ratio nominated at AfD; notified 04:44, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to be a dicdef, and it's not clear to me how this would be expanded beyond one.
 * River City Star nominated at AfD; notified 05:14, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Advertisement for a non-notable cruise on the Missouri River. Coverage is either not about the cruise or promo for the cruise.
 * Association for Social Transparency, Rights and Action nominated at AfD; notified 16:28, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NORG. Some hits in RS, but these are in passing. Tagged for notability for 9 years. Current sources are either deadlinks, non-RS, or do not mention the org.
 * Jürgen Handke nominated at AfD; notified 02:23, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Largely unsourced puff piece for a professor who does not appear to meet WP:NPROF. dewiki article is also largely unsourced. His book, published in 2012, has been cited 106 times according to Google Scholar.
 * Fereshta Samah nominated at AfD; notified 02:31, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparently non-notable singer. The sources cited in the last AfD are all dead, and the one source—which I auto-translated—appears to be an interview.
 * George S. Elrick nominated at AfD; notified 02:53, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NAUTHOR. There is an obit in the Chicago Tribune but that's all the sustained coverage I could find and since he was from Chicagoland it's arguably local coverage. Not to be confused with George Elrick.
 * M&A Today nominated at AfD; notified 03:37, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Promo for a journal whose only function is promo. Redirect tp M&A Source is of dubious value since I'm not convinced that's notable either.
 * Kukkuta Sastra nominated at AfD; notified 03:51, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Now this is an interesting one. Ostensibly it is a form of divination based on the results of cockfighting. This would certainly be a notable topic if I could confirm that it is real. But my searches for "kukkuta sastra" and "cock astrology" got precisely zero hits on the Internet Archive and just one passing mention in . So we seem to have a WP:V fail here. There is an article in the Telugu Wikipedia, but it has just one source.
 * Roy Geronemus nominated at AfD; notified 04:46, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:PROMO for a run-of-the-mill dermatologist. Doctors are very often affiliated with prestigious hospitals, and very often publish in scientific journals.
 * Hemmels nominated at AfD; notified 04:59, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:PROMO for a car restoration company founded in 2016. Refs are to niche websites for car enthusiasts. I don't subscribe to the Telegraph; that seems to be the only legit ref.
 * Pesenti Family of Painters nominated at AfD; notified 16:10, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: An apparent WP:V fail. The lone source (in Italian) has, by my count, one reference to the "famiglia Pesenti". Pesenti (famiglia) exists in itwiki, but it is about 20th century businesspeople, not 16th century artists. This would be an interesting and notable article if it verifiable, but I don't think it is.
 * Alexander Zhmodikov nominated at AfD; notified 16:34, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparent WP:NPROF/WP:NAUTHOR fail. No article in the Russian Wikipedia. He has a single article on JSTOR, with 66 cites per Google Scholar. Prod declined in October 2019.
 * Blake Luttrell nominated at AfD; notified 16:38, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NSOLDIER. Only claim to notability is receiving the Silver Star once, which is not his nation's highest award for valour.
 * K. Radhakrishna Menon nominated at AfD; notified 23:16, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:BASIC. I found three very short obituaries for him . I suppose that could pass WP:THREE if one were feeling especially generous, but all they verify is basically his death date.
 * Crowdynews nominated at AfD; notified 02:42, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:PROMO for a startup that fails WP:NORG. is the best I could do by way of coverage, and it looks like a press release.
 * Ellie Robinson (politician) nominated at AfD; notified 03:41, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Does not meet WP:NPOL as a councillor for Newham and does not seem to meet WP:GNG. She most recently was an official on Keir Starmer's Labour leadership campaign (see ), but I'm not seeing the sustained coverage necessary for GNG.
 * The Misadventures of Oscar McFoisy nominated at AfD; notified 13:34, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable newspaper column with a charming title. Amazingly, it had zero hits at the Internet Archive, and all the Google hits appear to be WP mirrors. I was prepared to call it a hoax but it does appear in one of the ELs . (Incidentally, I have never seen an article with this many tags.)
 * Daniel A. Ninivaggi nominated at AfD; notified 16:10, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Seeking consensus on a very close case on WP:BASIC. In addition to the usual barrage of press releases, there's coverage in major outlets (e.g.,, ), but it either seems WP:ROUTINE or really about Icahn Enterprises. seems to be about him personally, but I'm not sure if it's reliable. Has sat in CAT:NN since 2016, presumably because the case is so close. I would have considered a redirect, but since he's been an exec at a number of companies there's no clear target.
 * Jodi Livon nominated at AfD; notified 02:56, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:FRINGEBLP of a probably non-notable subject. I just cut the WP:PROMO and unsourced material, but obviously feel free to revert partially or in full if you can verify the information. Analysis of sources below; don't think they combine to establish notability, and I couldn't find anything else.
 * 2)  Apparently reliable (Minnesota Monthly), but it's an interview.
 * 3)  Not reliable—archived version of her website.
 * 4)  Not reliable—YouTube video posted on her own channel.
 * 5)  Not reliable—YouTube video posted on her channel.
 * 6) Dead link.
 * 7)  Reliable (Star Tribune), but local coverage. All the other RS I could find  are mirrors of this article, which was presumably from a syndicate.
 * 8) Her own book; unreliable primary source.
 * 9) Her own book; unreliable primary source.
 * Nucleus Research nominated at AfD; notified 03:47, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:PROMO. There are hits in RS, but not WP:SIGCOV.
 * Western Sonoma County Historical Society nominated at AfD; notified 05:40, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Entirely unsourced stub on a non-notable local history society. I am not seeing WP:SIGCOV— (p. 54) is the best I could do, and it's a capsule description. I thought about doing a WP:NPROF analog, by checking to see if it's been cited as a publisher or conservator of notable historical materials and/or influential in the field of history more broadly. By my reckoning, it hasn't. 23 hits on Google Scholar; 16 hits at the Internet Archive. It has also published a few local history books in collaboration with Arcadia Publishing, which seems to publish (good!) local histories on any community in the U.S. with someone willing to write one.
 * Alexander Kalichuk nominated at AfD; notified 13:15, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NSOLDIER as a sergeant (see Sergeant)), which is not a flag, general or air officer. Fails WP:NCRIME as merely a murder suspect without clear RS coverage. Fails GNG because there's nothing besides his military service and criminal allegations.
 * Chandra Kalindi Roy Henriksen nominated at AfD; notified 15:01, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparent fail of at least WP:V and apparently WP:NAUTHOR and WP:BASIC. I find this one very puzzling, since I was expecting it to be a slam dunk for notability. Her title—Chief of the Secretariat of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues—seems impressive, but it is at least currently not accurate (see ). Of the two sources for that claim in the article, the first does not seem especially reliable, and the second  is a primary source on a now-dead website. I think the best argument for notability is actually WP:NAUTHOR, since her book Land Rights of the Indigenous Peoples of the Chittagong Hill Tracts has 100+ cites on Google Scholar. I was only able to find one review of it, however. The articles in other Wikipedias do not help with sourcing. Hoping to resolve this in any event, since it's been tagged for notability for four years. It was created by a sock, but I don't think that's relevant for notability purposes.
 * Kunmudo nominated at AfD; notified 04:27, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Entirely unsourced WP:V fail. Claims it's a Korean martial art, but (1) there is apparently no article in the Korean Wikipedia; and (2) all the hits I found in the Roman alphabet are unreliable. In Hangul—according to this unsourced article, at least—it's 군무도. Maybe readers of Korean (which I am not) could evaluate any potential evidence for that search term.
 * Four Foods Group nominated at AfD; notified 15:29, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:PROMO for a business that fails WP:NCORP. Only hits are non-RS press releases and trade journals.
 * Oldroyd Publishing Group nominated at AfD; notified 15:34, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Procedural nom for a non-notable publisher. (CC .)
 * Anastasia Trach nominated at AfD; notified 15:52, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NSPORT, but there is no SNG for volleyball that I can find so am bringing to AfD for consensus. There is a better profile than this article here.
 * Rinat Malzagov nominated at AfD; notified 16:32, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Procedural nom for a singer who (I believe) clearly fails WP:SINGER. No equivalents in Cyrillic alphabet Wikipedias. Previous AfD closed as no consensus in 2006, and things have changed a lot since then.
 * Anthony Wells nominated at AfD; notified 23:24, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Promotional BLP. Relevant SNGs seem to be WP:NSOLDIER and WP:NAUTHOR, and the subject of this article seems to fail both, as well as WP:BASIC. The sole claim to notability I can pull out is that he was the "only living person to have worked for British Intelligence as a British citizen and for US Intelligence as an American citizen" and it is "sourced" incredibly vaguely to "The Navy Lists (UK) 1964-1983 (Her Majesty’s Stationery Office, London)." Appears to be the same person as listed in his publisher's capsule bio  which does not mention this distinction. The book is Between Five Eyes (ISBN 9781612009001), and I haven't had any luck finding reviews.
 * Massimo Carello nominated at AfD; notified 23:31, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Procedural nom, as this was previously prodded. Unsourced BLP of a non-notable wealthy person. Hits I can find are  (namedrop) and in the deprecated Daily Mail.
 * Channel 4 News (United States) nominated at AfD; notified 00:10, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: An unsourced compendium of US news channels named "Channel 4" at one point or another. Not titled as a list, but that's what it basically is. Seems to fail WP:NOTDIR.
 * Premama nominated at AfD; notified 03:25, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: An apparent WP:CORPDEPTH fail. There are hits in legit sources, , but they are namedrops. Existing refs are largely either dead or not independent. Article has all the hallmarks of UPE.
 * Thomsen Diagrams nominated at AfD; notified 03:31, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Seems to be a WP:NEOLOGISM. "Thomsen diagram" gets 2 hits on Google Scholar; "Thomsen diagram" gets 1. Bringing this to AfD because I also can't make head or tail of the dense, technical prose—perhaps there's something in here I haven't grasped.
 * Frank Meschkuleit nominated at AfD; notified 12:28, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Procedural nom, as my prod was just contested by an IP with no explanation. There is some coverage (e.g., ), but it's local (NB: CBC News has many local affiliates and publishes news from on all of them on one site.) I don't think the subject of this article meets WP:NCREATIVE or WP:BASIC, but would appreciate a consensus at any rate because this has been tagged for notability for 8 years.
 * Trevor Beattie (CEO) nominated at AfD; notified 13:52, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:BASIC. I would have redirected, but the target is unclear. Coverage I could find consists of namedrops in The Argus, a local paper. Previous AfD closed as no consensus four years ago because nobody !voted—would be nice to get at least something this time, one way or another, because it's been sitting in CAT:NN since then …
 * St. Paul's Presbyterian Church (Leaskdale) nominated at AfD; notified 14:41, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Church that fails WP:NBUILD. The Commons category suggests that it's a listed building, but it's not. Rather, it is very close to a listed building. The listed building is Leaskdale Manse (listing: ) and I don't think there's content here to merge into that article. It would be good to get consensus on this in some way or another in any event, since it's been sitting in CAT:NN since 2009.
 * Thomas V. Chema nominated at AfD; notified 16:27, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Resume for a subject who appears to fail WP:NPROF, WP:BASIC, Bearian's standards for lawyers, and mine. Probably the best argument is NPROF#6—[t]he person has held a highest-level elected or appointed administrative post at a major academic institution or major academic society. Is Hiram College a major academic institution? My gut says no, but it's possible. Sourcing for the claim that he is "recognized as an expert on energy and telecommunications economics and regulation, infrastructure planning, and developing public-private partnerships" is primary.
 * Ethicurean nominated at AfD; notified 16:57, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:NEOLOGISM coined by a single restaurant in the UK, with a cookbook to match . Sources are dead and primary.
 * Ilham Rahimov nominated at AfD; notified 20:33, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Extremely thinly sourced promotional BLP. I don't think he meets WP:NPROF, but I am in no real position to evaluate the sources. There appear to be some sources in the Azerbaijani Wikipedia, but as I do not speak the language I cannot evaluate their quality.
 * Morgan Reynolds nominated at AfD; notified 22:11, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Weakly sourced WP:FRINGEBLP of a subject who may nonetheless meet WP:NPROF. He co-authored a book with a very large number of cites, so there's a decent case for NPROF#1. I don't think WP:NPOL applies to someone who was chief economist for the US Dept of Labor for one year, but perhaps it does. His status as a conspiracy theorist is interesting, but I don't think there's evidence that he's notable as a conspiracy theorist. Bringing this here for consensus.
 * Netcha nominated at AfD; notified 22:33, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparent WP:V fail and, at least at present, a clear WP:NOTDICT fail. According to the source cited in the article—not even a sentence in a dictionary of clothing terms—it's a type of sealskin coat. But I cannot find any other sources to establish that this is a known term. Bringing this single-sentence substub here because I think it's possible I've missed something, perhaps under an alternate name or spelling. The one source cited also seems borderline on reliability to me.
 * Rue Delesseux, Paris nominated at AfD; notified 05:37, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Procedural nom for a minor street in Paris that fails WP:GEOFEAT. This is no Champs-Élysées: it is one block long. The article in French is barely any longer and cites no sources.
 * Dummy Mag nominated at RfD; Target: Jockey Slut (notified) 06:58, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Redirect created by a sock in 2016. I don't think these are the same magazine. Dummy Mag is still going strong, and Jockey Slut does not mention "dummy" anywhere.
 * Stick Sports nominated at AfD; notified 15:42, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NWEB but I'm not entirely sure since it's very difficult to specify a search for this without getting hits for "stick to sports" (which, incidentally, should probably have an article). Very low Alexa rank. Thinly sourced and tagged for notability for 11 years.
 * St. Sebastian's Church, Chittattukara nominated at AfD; notified 19:11, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NBUILD/WP:NORG. I found a few directory entries and some namedrops in the Kerala Gazette but nothing that appears to be WP:SIGCOV.
 * St. Stephen Church (Trumbull, Connecticut) nominated at AfD; notified 19:12, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NBUILD/WP:NORG. A few directory entries on Google Books but nothing that looks like WP:SIGCOV.
 * Paris One nominated at AfD; notified 21:50, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:GNG. I don't think WP:NRADIO applies because it's an internet radio station and thus the listenership can't be independently verified. Hits in mainstream media are not for this org. Sourcing in article is dead or primary or both. Article in frwiki has the same sources as this one, which IMO are not enough. Thinly sourced and tagged for notability for over a decade.
 * Rialto (programming) nominated at AfD; notified 21:59, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Unsourced article about a JavaScript library that appears to fail WP:NSOFT. It's my sense that hits like are not about this particular product because "rich Internet application toolkit" appears to be a generic term for a family of products and not specific to this one, but I could be wrong. I considered redirecting to List of JavaScript libraries, but that is a list of libraries with articles and it's specifically described in the lede as a list of notable JavaScript libraries. Notability tagged for over 11 years.
 * Port Townsend First Baptist Church nominated at AfD; notified 03:36, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A thinly sourced article on a run-of-the-mill church in Washington State that fails WP:NCHURCH, WP:NORG, and WP:GNG. Hits, such as they are (e.g. ), are WP:ROUTINE mentions in local media.
 * Sir Thomas Western, 3rd Baronet nominated at AfD; notified 03:41, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Peerage cruft; WP:NOTGENEALOGY. His father was notable as an MP, but he is not.
 * Egyptian Engineering Agencies nominated at AfD; notified 04:54, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Thinly sourced article on a company that appears to fail WP:NCORP. I expected to find more sources in arwiki but they are exactly the same as the ones in the English article, and I don't think they're sufficient to establish notability. WP:BEFORE turned up a few namedrops in reference works, but nothing significant.
 * Ili River Treaty nominated at AfD; notified 05:25, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:V fail; possibly a hoax. The ISBNs of the books cited are not valid. Only hits in English on Google Books for the article title are WP mirrors. Nothing on Scholar, nothing on JSTOR. There is one additional source in the Turkish Wikipedia besides the one listed here (ISBN 9789758839056), but it doesn't appear to be available online.
 * International Grooving & Grinding Association nominated at AfD; notified 05:53, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Niche trade association that fails WP:NORG. If only this were a grooving and grinding association ……
 * Jerusalem-Project nominated at AfD; notified 06:02, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Truly impossible to tell, reading this, if this is a genuine initiative—and, if it is, what it does. It's ostensibly a collaboration between the International Peace and Cooperation Center, Futura , and the Lassalle Institute (cannot find a page). But it's impossible (at least for me) to tell what the nature of the collaboration is. Not quite WP:NONSENSE, but close in spirit. Sources are all primary.
 * Patrudu nominated at AfD; notified 14:20, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparently non-notable caste. I would have prodded this but there is a source cited (English translation: ), but it is almost certainly self-published.
 * Moving Visions Entertainment nominated at AfD; notified 14:37, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NORG. A local production company that produced two films.
 * MVaaS nominated at AfD; notified 23:46, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Completely unsourced article on a WP:NEOLOGISM that does not appear to have been picked up. There are some hits for the term "MVaaS" (e.g., ) but they are not often about "managed video as a service". The one linked, for instance, is an article on "materialized view as a service".
 * Kaduvayil palli nominated at AfD; notified 03:29, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Unsourced article on a masjid that appears to fail "WP:NCHURCH", WP:NORG, and WP:GNG. I found one passing mention in the Kerala Gazette, but that's it. Bringing this to AfD as it's possible I've missed something in an alternative spelling or a language I'm not familiar with.
 * Fox Club, London nominated at AfD; notified 05:53, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NORG and WP:GNG. There are hits in mainstream media (e.g.,, , ) but all strike me as either routine, promotional, or sensationalist. Stub since 2006, originally about a final club at Harvard.
 * Artificial General Intelligence Research Institute nominated at AfD; notified 06:25, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NORG. I found (passing mention). Tagged for notability for over 10 years.
 * Young K. nominated at AfD; notified 06:40, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Very, very mysterious. This subject has a—probably self-generated— profile on the Saatchi Gallery website, a website , and a self-published book on Amazon . But I can find nothing independent (nothing in Artforum that I could see, although the article cites it) so appears to fail WP:NARTIST. Not to be confused with Young K.
 * Whatcom Peace & Justice Center nominated at AfD; notified 14:12, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Seems like a pretty clear WP:NORG fail, but it's been here since 2007 so thought I'd post here instead of prodding it.
 * Fyodor Gavrilov nominated at AfD; notified 14:23, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:V and WP:NARTIST fail. I cannot find anything in a reliable source about this alleged painter, and there is no equivalent in the Russian Wikipedia. I don't know how to back-transliterate this name into Cyrillic, so perhaps those who do can find something.
 * South Pointe Tower nominated at AfD; notified 15:03, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NBUILD. The claim about being the first skyscraper in South Beach is unsourced, as are the claims of notable residents. Even if these were true, I don't think they'd confer notability on the building.
 * Jaffa Shrine Center nominated at AfD; notified 15:15, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NBUILD. It is a large arena, but there is no WP:SIGCOV I can see that would establish notability; hits are namedrops in local media.
 * Fred Carl Jr. nominated at AfD; notified 15:57, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Thinly sourced promotional BLP on a subject who appears to fail WP:BASIC, but it's arguable. There is some coverage in mainstream media, but at least these pieces are interviews. I do not find the awards section especially persuasive as regards notability. Viking Range is probably notable, but I don't think Fred Carl is.
 * Nang (Sikhism) nominated at AfD; notified 16:21, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: An apparently non-notable concept in Nihang Sikhism. I found an entry on SikhiWiki (, great name, btw), but it cites no sources and suggests that this is more of a derogatory term than a concept.
 * List of Freedom Press Books nominated at AfD; notified 21:50, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I am baffled by the existence of this list. It does not aid in navigation, because a fair number of the books do not have WP entries. It is unsourced. And all relevant information about the publisher can be found and included at Freedom Press. Wikipedia is not a mirror of Worldcat—and, more to the point, this is actually substantially less useful than a library catalog entry.
 * Paul Stelzer nominated at AfD; notified 22:45, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Seeking consensus on this one. The article claims that he is a pioneer of the Ross procedure, but even his profile at Mount Sinai Hospital doesn't go so far as this article does, and it's not clear to me whether his being a pioneer of the Ross procedure—which I was not able to verify—would make him notable. WP:NPROF/WP:NAUTHOR seem like possible SNGs, given that he has co-authored a number of widely cited papers (e.g.,  in NEJM). Seems like he's a fairly well-respected cardiothoracic surgeon, but I'm not sure if he passes the relevant standards.
 * Mustafa Majid nominated at AfD; notified 01:51, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to be a fringe theorist of ethnic groups in Bangladesh. Worldcat says his most widely held book is in 20 libraries . Most of the cites in this article are dead or unhelpful, but there is one review in The Daily Star in English, so at least the beginnings of a WP:NAUTHOR case. Articles in other Wikipedias do not help with sourcing.
 * Rajeev Jha nominated at AfD; notified 04:00, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: BLP of a subject who is the general secretary of the Rastriya Janata Party Nepal, a relatively small political party. Only relevant guidelines seem to be WP:NPOL—which he does not meet, as he is a party official, not an elected legislator—and WP:BASIC, which I cannot establish either. has some mentions of him, and the references in the article that aren't dead have some passing mentions, but I'm not seeing sustained coverage. I suggest either an outright delete or a delete-and-redirect to Rastriya Janata Party Nepal.
 * Dilip Venkatachari nominated at AfD; notified 15:36, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: An apparently non-notable business exec. He's associated with some notable VCs and companies—e.g., New Enterprise Associates and U.S. Bancorp—but I'm not seeing evidence of notability in his own right. Crunchbase profile: ; Bloomberg exec profile:
 * Ron Bard nominated at AfD; notified 15:54, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Close call on this one. A (so-called) psychic who was indeed the subject of one profile in Forbes, but nothing else sustained I can find. There's (reprint of an interview) and a couple of namedrops in  from The Guardian. And, of course, the usual hits in deprecated tabloids like Express and the Daily Mail. For a WP:FRINGE personality like this, I'd like to see better sourcing than seems available.
 * Debra Baird nominated at AfD; notified 20:33, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Procedural nom, as this was previously prodded. The subject of this article does not meet WP:NPROF, in my view. The claim in the article that she is a "university professor" is misleading. She is indeed a professor at Athens State University (see ), but not a university professor in the sense of a distinguished professor. Likewise, the claim that she is a fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland is misleading, because you can pay to join the society as a "fellow". She is not an honorary fellow, which is the distinguished designation (see list here: ). Her book, coauthored with several others, was not published in a major university press. It's possibly self-published, actually, because the name of the press is the same as that of the (now indeffed) creator of this article . Her publications are listed here: . Most of the hits on Scholar are for a different Debra Baird, and there's nothing on JSTOR. Procedural note: I also just prodded Clan Baird Society Worldwide, the society she is apparently the head of.
 * Robert B. Tucker nominated at AfD; notified 01:18, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Promotional article for an apparently non-notable business personality. Of the refs in the article, all are dead except for (interview),  (another interview in the same publication),  (interview apparently from CNBC hosted on his YouTube channel).

I think the best bet for notability is WP:NAUTHOR, but I've had a really hard time finding reviews. There is one decent-sized review of Winning the Innovation Game (ISBN 9780425115312), which he co-authored in 1987, in the LA Times for March 5, 1987, but that's about it. I found this surprising, since Driving Growth Through Innovation (ISBN 9781576751879) has 300 cites on Scholar. All the other hits I could find were unreliable profiles from the speaking agencies he's affiliated with.
 * Clan Baird Society Worldwide nominated at AfD; notified 03:17, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Genealogical association that fails WP:NORG deprodded by a SPA. There are three very similar articles in the same small local paper and a few passing mentions in obituaries, but nothing else substantial. Note: I also recently started Articles for deletion/Debra Baird, about the head of this organization, but very different standards apply to each so it seems reasonable to keep them separate.
 * List of TEDx conferences nominated at AfD; notified 18:16, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A directory of non-notable conferences that anyone can organize if they feel like it, sourced almost entirely to primary sources like TED.com, Facebook, and YouTube. As TED (conference) puts it, TEDx conferences can be organized by anyone who obtains a free license from TED, and agrees to follow certain principles. I briefly considered paring it down to just the conferences with links, but of those only TEDxAuckland, TEDxLagos, TEDxSanta Cruz, and TEDxWellington have even a hint of independent coverage, and they can be handled with a category or just linked to on a see-also at TED (conference).
 * Six Segment Analysis nominated at AfD; notified 22:44, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:NEOLOGISM. It's in the title of one self-published book and briefly referenced in other book . Hits on Scholar are for six-segment analyses in other contexts. Existing refs are dead, vague, or unreliable. The alleged reference to Economics of Strategy seems specious to me (see ).
 * Barrie Weaver nominated at AfD; notified 23:30, 29 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Industrial designer who seems to fail WP:NARTIST. I was able to find a couple of interviews with him on ProQuest, but nothing substantial. The article claimed shortly before this nomination that he was a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, which is not true (see ). Actually, he's a member of the RSA fellowship, which is like a "friends of the RSA" society (see ). I was also not able to verify the claim that he is a recipient of the Prince Philip Designers Prize; all the sites that seem to verify this are WP mirrors. I think he was a member of the Design Council, which might confer notability, but it's unclear.
 * Device ecology nominated at AfD; notified 04:08, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Essay on a probably non-notable neologism in technology and computing. Seng Loke, a computer scientist at Deakin University is an author or co-author in all the works cited in this article. Searching for   on Scholar yields 177 results, which isn't nothing, but I'm not sure it's sufficient for a standalone article. For ease of reference, the top hit is, which gets 10 cites. I considered a redirect to information ecology but it appears only vaguely related.
 * Forgotten Cats nominated at AfD; notified 15:31, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A small (revenues under $1M/year per ) local charity doing excellent work that appears to fail WP:NORG. There is some coverage in The Times Herald, a small local paper (e.g.,, ), but I'm not finding non-WP:ROUTINE coverage that clears WP:AUD requirements. Tagged for notability for over a decade.
 * Los Angeles Real Estate nominated at RfD; notified ; Target: Job or No Job (notified) 03:21, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: So this presumably exists because of, but the target is a tiny article on a defunct reality TV show. If we had Housing in Los Angeles that would be an appropriate target, but this redirect strikes me as confusing/misleading at the moment. (Indeed, I was confused/misled until I Googled it.) I suggest deleting outright.
 * Dana Howard (contactee) nominated at AfD; notified 05:09, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: May be a WP:FRINGEBLP. The lone RS included as a source does indeed mention the subject of the article (see ), but just once. There are also hits in in-universe ufology newsletters, but we can't use those. I could not find reviews of her books to establish WP:NAUTHOR. Previous AfD was in 2009, so I think this deserves fresh consideration.
 * Greening Greater Toronto nominated at AfD; notified 05:44, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparently non-notable initiative. As far as I can tell, it released one report in 2008 and did very little else. The report did get some coverage in the Toronto Star and CityNews . By article count alone, you might think that passes WP:THREE. But I just have a hard time believing that a single report released 12 years ago with no apparent long-term impact is an encyclopedic topic. Would be nice to get some clarity on this one way or another, since it's been tagged for notability for over 11 years.
 * Martha's Vineyard Film Festival nominated at AfD; notified 15:45, 31 August 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Seeking consensus. There is a fair amount of coverage in Boston-area publications such as WBUR and The Boston Globe, but a lot of it (e.g., ) seems like WP:ROUTINE announcements of festival lineups or similar. It is not clear to me that this festival has heft comparable to Sundance, Cannes, TIFF, etc.—especially since I don't see coverage in trade journals like the The Hollywood Reporter that would indicate industry prominence. But it might squeak by WP:GNG with some not insignificant local-ish coverage.

September 2020

 * Tom Crabtree (journalist) nominated at AfD; notified 19:10, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A former anchor on WSPA-TV who appears to fail WP:NJOURNALIST and WP:BASIC. Coverage I'm seeing is either primary ( – profile from his station) or very local . He was on TV for a long time, but I don't think that makes him notable. Previous AfD closed as no consensus with one keep !vote in 2013, so would be nice to get a clearer result this time.
 * Betty Schueler nominated at AfD; notified 19:25, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A wife-and-husband team of non-notable occult writers who both appear to fail WP:BASIC and WP:NAUTHOR. I could not find any reviews of their books. There is some coverage for a Betty Schueler who was a union organizer at BWI Airport, but I'm pretty sure these are different people.
 * Ashley Cowie nominated at AfD 02:25, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable conspiracy theorist-slash-"historian". There are some hits in the deprecated The Sun, but nothing I can find in RS.
 * MaryRose Occhino nominated at AfD; notified 02:38, 2 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:FRINGEBLP of a non-notable so-called psychic. I found one decently in-depth article in Newsday from 2009 about her opening a shop called "Mary O's Celestial Whispers" and (arguably routine coverage), but nothing else substantive.
 * Sharon Keenan nominated at AfD; notified 02:18, 3 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparent failure of WP:V and WP:NARTIST. The lone source I could find was (PDF p. 17), which does not look reliable. The other sources cited in this article do not appear reliable either. Her work has been sold at auction a number of times, but beyond that I can verify very little of the content in this article.
 * Crowne Plaza Hong Kong Causeway Bay nominated at AfD; notified 04:41, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A recently constructed, run-of-the-mill hotel in Hong Kong that does not appear to have significant architectural or other features that would allow it to pass WP:NBUILD. There are some distant namedrops like, but no WP:SIGCOV I can see.
 * Hal Ritson nominated at AfD; notified 17:31, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A producer who appears to fail "WP:SINGER". There are hits in RS (e.g., ), but all I can find are either passing mentions or interviews. I'm sure some of his—apparently very many—productions have charted, but I'm skeptical that a producer without substantial independent coverage passes criteria 2–3 of WP:SINGER. Many people are involved in creating pop hits, so singling out a producer for an article when there's little coverage of him in particular seems unreasonable IMO.
 * Asia Commons nominated at AfD; notified 20:25, 5 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Almost entirely unreferenced essay on a WP:NEOLOGISM that served as the title/program of a single conference in 2006. It's possible that or  is related; all the other hits I could see are for phrases in which "Asia" and "commons" appear in the same line, as in when a photo of a place in Asia is sourced to Commons.
 * Tipica nominated at AfD; notified 22:52, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Journal that fails WP:NJOURNALS and WP:GNG. 1900-5121, its ISSN, does not turn up any results at MIAR (a directory of journal indexes) although it does appear to have been legitimately assigned.
 * Garth Mann nominated at AfD; notified 23:45, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This is a case in which WP:NBASEBALL is technically met, but to such a degree that I fail to see how notability is actually established. (NBASEBALL says notability is presumed, not established, by a Major League appearance.) This player was a pinch runner for the Cubs in exactly one game in 1944 (confirmed at Baseball Reference: ). There is a capsule biography of him, which establishes that he existed and had a non-notable post-baseball career. He was also rated the "most obscure Cub to wear" in a history of the Cubs . I fail to see this confers notability, as it would be rather backwards to suggest that being named "most obscure" by a single publication in fact makes you notable. But perhaps it does. This has been tagged for notability for five years, so it'd be good to resolve this one way or another.
 * Andrew Wolk nominated at AfD; notified 04:42, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Social entrepreneur who fails WP:BASIC. The best I could do by way of coverage is, a passing mention in the NYT, and (interview in the Boston Globe, which is local coverage for a Boston-based exec). His best claim to notability is being the CEO of a non-notable nonprofit. Previous AfD closed as no consensus in 2008, and a lot has changed since then.
 * Travel aversion nominated at AfD; notified 04:07, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: No evidence that this is a phenomenon that has been the subject of sustained comment by academics or laypeople. In total, there are 24 hits for it on Google Scholar, and most appear to be more or less casual, non-technical uses. The term was used as a study parameter in and briefly commented in, but there is very little else substantial I can see. While it is true that people may not like to travel in certain circumstances, it is not clear to me that this topic could be the subject of an article that does not consist of synthesis or original research.
 * Jeffry B. Skiba nominated at AfD; notified 04:32, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Inventor who fails WP:BASIC. There are a few passing mentions of a fabric he patented in 2005 that may have some Covid-19–related uses and one questionably reliable profile, but nothing else I can see. Note: "Jeffry" is indeed spelled without the typical second E.
 * Ewald Krolis nominated at AfD; notified 04:58, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This is an unfortunate case. This musician clearly existed and released music (just search YouTube or Discogs), but I can find no obviously RS to verify any of the claims in the article. Closest I got was, which looks like a blog but might be reliable. The article in Dutch has the same source as this one. Sorting this into Netherlands-related discussions even though Krolis was Surinamese in the hopes that some Dutch speakers might be able to evaluate this source.
 * Bushu Dima nominated at AfD; notified 17:52, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Not clear that this is a notable festival. I found two references to it in The Assam Tribune ( and ) and a brief mention in a book on fermented foods, but these references verify very little besides the existence of the festival. It may be a variant of Bihu, in which case a delete-and-redirect there is possible. Articles in other Wikipedias do not help with sourcing.
 * John Berlau nominated at AfD; notified 02:49, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Economist at a few think tanks and newspaper columnist who fails WP:NPROF, WP:NAUTHOR, and WP:BASIC. I found a review of one of his books in the WSJ and a few interviews, but not much else. I doubt that winning the  Sandy Hume Memorial Award for Excellence in Political Journalism is sufficient for WP:ANYBIO or NAUTHOR purposes.
 * Brownfield remediation and economic development nominated at AfD; notified 03:33, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Essay on brownfields and their relation to economic development, sourced only to a deadlink that was at one point a report by the Port of Portland.
 * Margaritas (restaurant) nominated at AfD; notified 03:29, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Seeking consensus. A toughie, not just because it's hard to search without getting results for lower-case margaritas. The best sources I could find in a search were (local newspaper, not really SIGCOV IMO),  (looks like SIGCOV, but not clearly independent—I'm rather suspicious of "business journals"),  (looks decent, thought not entirely sure if reliable), and  (not great either). So seeing a lot of mediocre coverage, but not really WP:CORPDEPTH.
 * The Flick Law Firm nominated at AfD 04:17, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Personal injury law firm that fails WP:NCORP. The awards are not convincing: many, many firms and lawyers are rated in some capacity by Avvo, and being reviewed by the BBB is hardly an award. Parroting Scope_creep here, I'd also call this native advertising.
 * Thomas & Solomon LLP nominated at AfD; notified 15:07, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Another law firm that fails WP:NCORP. I checked the newspaper citations referred to in the article and they were not impressive: some of their lawyers have been interviewed about employment law matters over the years, as one would expect for an employment law firm. Other coverage is in Rochester, New York–area press so fails WP:AUD.
 * Tour-Mate Systems nominated at AfD; notified 19:10, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NCORP. I found one decently in-depth article in the Financial Post on ProQuest called "Toronto's Tour-Mate a hit with zoos" (1991) and that's it. AFAICS, the journal article mentioned in the article at the moment isn't really about the company.
 * Melissa Marshall nominated at AfD; notified 03:34, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Procedural nom, as this was previously prodded. Fails WP:NACTOR. Only four roles, per IMDb: . Three, if you count The Girl from Tomorrow and the TV movie based on it as one role. The best I could do by way of coverage is and some namedrops in contemporary reviews of the show, which is not very good.
 * Jena Kraus nominated at AfD; notified 23:48, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Unsourced BLP of a subject who appears to fail WP:NSINGER. This article was merged into Blind Melon in 2006 because Kraus contributed to some of the band's songs, but I am unable to find adequate sourcing to support even a merge. I don't think a redirect to Blind Melon would make much sense either. So I propose deletion instead.
 * Ted Seko nominated at AfD; notified 03:55, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NARTIST/WP:NCREATIVE. and  are the best refs available, and they don't look super reliable to me.
 * Hans Volkmer nominated at AfD; notified 17:41, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NPROF and WP:NAUTHOR. Not an endowed chair or, as far as I can see, a member of any learned societies. Low citations on Scholar: . Two reviews of his book Multiparameter eigenvalue problems and expansion theorems, but without more it doesn't look like a WP:NAUTHOR pass either.
 * Sierra Chart nominated at AfD; notified 23:49, 18 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Unreferenced stub on a non-notable program for traders that fails WP:NSOFT and WP:GNG. There are some hits in niche finance blogs of dubious reliability (e.g., ), but I'm not finding significant coverage in reliable sources. Deleted three times already (albeit a long time ago), so I might suggest adding a pinch of salt if consensus is to delete.
 * Wahre und Falsche "Fauen-Emanzipation" nominated at AfD; notified 05:27, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparently quite obscure treatise on women's rights and Catholicism that fails WP:NBOOK and WP:GNG. The author has a short article in dewiki, but the only hits for the book I can find are in bibliographical entries. Rösler's entry in Deutsche Biographie only mentions the book in passing. I would happily be proven wrong about this, but I don't think there's coverage to support an article. Rösler's most famous work, incidentally, is Die Frauenfrage vom Standpunkte der Natur, which does look notable.
 * Cypulchre nominated at AfD; notified 04:26, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NBOOK. is good as a source, but the Calgary Herald piece cited in the article appears to be based on an interview, so not clearly independent.  is from a student newspaper at Simon Fraser University, so not great either. I would have redirected it to the author's page, but there isn't one and I don't think it'd pass WP:NAUTHOR if it were created.
 * Sahir Hashmi Adeeb nominated at AfD; notified 03:09, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I truly cannot find anything in reliable sources about this poet, who I believe fails WP:NAUTHOR and WP:BASIC. But, from the description in the article, he sounds potentially notable, so perhaps I'm missing something. Prior AfD is not helpful with respect to sourcing.
 * Folklore of Assam nominated at AfD; notified 05:00, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparently non-notable book by a notable author. I would have redirected to Jogesh Das, but that would seem misleading as presumably searchers of that term would be looking to learn about the folklore of Assam.
 * 2007 World Youth Report nominated at AfD; notified 21:06, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I think this fails WP:NBOOK. I found one review for a previous edition of this report (|A140563315), but nothing for this one in particular. It seems fairly well-cited on Scholar, but no third-party in-depth coverage I can see.

October 2020

 * Dominique Surel nominated at AfD; notified 03:40, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:FRINGEBLP of a subject who fails WP:NPROF, WP:NAUTHOR, and WP:BASIC. Holds a position at what appears to be a for-profit distance learning institution. Co-author of one low-cited but legitimately published paper, but I see no indication of passing any of the relevant SNGs.
 * Publishing rights nominated at RfD; notified ; Target: Music publisher (notified) 15:28, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Not sure where this should be targeted, but music publisher seems wrong. I'd suggest publishing contract, but since there are a bunch of plausible options I thought I'd bring it here instead of boldly retargeting unilaterally.
 * New Jersey League of Conservation Voters nominated at AfD; notified 23:24, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: No indication that this local branch of the League of Conservation Voters passes WP:NORG in its own right, and I don't think a merge or redirect to League of Conservation Voters is plausible.
 * Richmond First nominated at AfD; notified 03:10, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Small local political group that fields candidates for the Richmond, British Columbia city council. Fails WP:NORG.
 * Friday Night massacre nominated at AfD; notified 04:26, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Potentially controversial, but I think this is a WP:NEOLOGISM that fails WP:GNG. It's a term that's been applied to a few Trump administration firings, such as that of Geoffrey Berman (this was originally a redirect to that page), but I don't see sourcing from which an encyclopedic article could be created. Re-redirecting is an option, I suppose, but then we might have a WP:XY problem given the multiple contexts in which the term has been used.
 * Clothes free nominated at RfD; notified ; Target: Nudity (notified) 05:06, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This seems like quite a reach for the target. I'd suggest deletion.
 * Jackson's Underworld nominated at AfD; notified 04:23, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:ROTM haunted house in Jackson, Michigan that fails WP:GNG. The voluminous references are all local, WP:ROUTINE coverage.
 * Notinism nominated at AfD; notified 18:55, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:NEOLOGISM created by an artists' collective that fails WP:GNG. The refs are either dead or unhelpful, and I couldn't find anything else. I considered a redirect to Holeg Spies, but (1) this term is not mentioned in the target; and (2) I'm not convinced Spies is notable either.
 * Ghost Data nominated at AfD; notified 19:23, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Inscrutable article on a WP:NEOLOGISM, with sources of questionable reliability. There are some hits for this term on Scholar (see, e.g., ), but I am not clear whether the term refers to the same, identifiable phenomenon in all contexts.
 * Rose Garden Massacre nominated at AfD; notified 02:22, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This has trended on Twitter, but the phrase is not mentioned in either of the target articles and I see no reliable sources that would suggest this is a valid term to disambiguate. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 02:22, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Wilentz, Goldman & Spitzer nominated at AfD; notified 05:30, 4 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:ROTM mid-size regional law firm that fails WP:NCORP. Only claim to notability is being involved in some high-profile tobacco litigation in the '80s and '90s, and I'm unable to verify that it played a significant role.
 * Ben Simons (politician) nominated at AfD; notified 13:54, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Does not meet WP:NPOL as a small-town mayor and does not appear to meet WP:BASIC. There is coverage, but it is local to Oregon.
 * Category:Jewish slave traders nominated at CfD (CfD); notified 04:25, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A tendentious, questionably encyclopedic category. We do not have Category:Christian slave traders, Category:Muslim slave traders, Category:Hindu slave traders, etc.
 * Category:Jewish slave owners nominated at CfD (CfD); notified 15:06, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Identical to my rationale for Category:Jewish slave traders. Unencyclopedic, tendentious, fails WP:OCEGRS.
 * Calvin F. Exoo nominated at AfD; notified 15:26, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NPROF, WP:NAUTHOR, and WP:BASIC. Not an endowed chair, low citations on Scholar. I found two reviews of his books, one of which is an edited volume—, —but nothing else substantive.
 * Emma Noble (musician) nominated at AfD; notified 15:30, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Paid article about a musician and DJ who fails WP:NBAND and WP:BASIC. Sources are unreliable, primary, or interviews, and I couldn't find anything else.
 * Anthony Ornato nominated at AfD; notified 15:41, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Copy-and-paste move from Draft:Anthony Ornato about a subject who fails WP:NPOL and WP:BASIC. I don't think there's a CSD that applies here, but hopefully there is so we don't have to go through the whole shebang …
 * Julian Wheatland nominated at AfD; notified 23:54, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A borderline case, but I think the subject of this article fails WP:BASIC. I don't think being CEO of Cambridge Analytica, however notorious it may be, is enough for WP:NBUSINESSPEOPLE. He's been an exec at a number of firms, so a potential redirect would face a WP:XY problem.
 * Louise Gluck/Averno nominated at RfD; notified ; Target: Averno (poetry collection) (notified) 16:11, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Just a very weird redirect, and I don't see any CSD that applies. Suggest deletion.
 * Mohammad K. Azarian nominated at AfD; notified 16:18, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NPROF. He won an award from the Indiana section of the Mathematical Association of America, but I don't think that's sufficient for notability. Low citations on Scholar, and not an endowed chair.
 * City of the Plague God nominated at AfD; notified 18:51, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NBOOK. Only coverage is a less-than-one-sentence "sneak preview" here.
 * Ed Marszewski nominated at AfD; notified 00:38, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A businessperson and man-about-town in Chicago who, I believe, fails WP:BASIC. He gets hits in Chicago-area press, but I'm not seeing WP:SIGCOV, in independent sources, of him personally.
 * Ray Dawn nominated at AfD; notified 01:35, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Rapper who fails WP:NSINGER. There are some hits in what appear to be RS but not WP:SIGCOV. Perhaps a bit WP:TOOSOON.
 * Vamsee Juluri nominated at AfD; notified 02:23, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NPROF and WP:NAUTHOR. His book Saraswati's Intelligence may be notable but I don't think he is.
 * Antonio T. de Nicolás nominated at AfD; notified 03:00, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NPROF, except for this, which may be a Festschrift but looks self-published. I also found this review, but that's about it.
 * Anantanand Rambachan nominated at AfD; notified 03:11, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NPROF and WP:NAUTHOR. The citation counts on Scholar might be enough for WP:NPROF, but I'm skeptical. For those keeping track: yes, I am nominating lots of articles on scholars of Hinduism and related topics. For the backstory, see Talk:Hinduphobia in academia.
 * Sully Wong nominated at AfD; notified 05:58, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: May just squeak past WP:NCORP with and a few passing mentions elsewhere, although that piece is not clearly independent. Otherwise, not seeing notability. Tagged since 2013 with apparently minimal improvement, so would be nice to decide this one way or another.
 * Jozef Maynard Borja Erece nominated at AfD; notified 15:59, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:BLP1E. No evidence that in addition to graduating law school at a young age he is notable as a lawyer. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 15:59, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Yemi Blaq nominated at AfD; notified 16:19, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NACTOR. Hits I can see are all to interviews (i.e., not independent sources). Doing my part to clean up the mess left by (see this permalink)
 * Madeleine Peters nominated at AfD 20:35, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NACTOR, and the redirect to Martha Speaks keeps getting reverted (last AfD ended with a redirect to the show). I'd suggest either outright deletion or a delete-and-redirect to Martha Speaks or My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.
 * DJ Keezy nominated at AfD; notified 16:50, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Seeking consensus, specifically on whether, , and establish "WP:NSINGER" or WP:BASIC. It's not clear to me that they do. I should note that I'm quite aware of the WP:BIAS implications of this nomination, and do not make it lightly.
 * Kip Memmott nominated at AfD; notified 04:41, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NPOL and WP:BASIC. There are mentions of him (e.g., ) but nothing to suggest BASIC.
 * Holly Auna nominated at AfD; notified 04:50, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:BASIC. Best reference available is, and I don't think it's sufficient.
 * Derman tragedy nominated at AfD; notified 05:07, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparent WP:V fail. I don't think I trust any of the sites listed as references, and a GSearch for "Derman tragedy" does not reveal anything else that looks reliable. ru:Дерманская трагедия exists, but the only online refs are to LiveJournal, which is surely not reliable.
 * Brighteon nominated at AfD; notified 04:42, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable fake news website. Really can't find any in-depth coverage of it at all. Main claim to fame is apparently playing host to Plandemic; I considered redirecting there but it's not mentioned in that article.
 * Chamatkara Chintamani nominated at AfD; notified 04:48, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparently quite obscure treatise by Bhatta Narayana. I was (just) able to verify its existence, and the existence of what looks to be another book by the same name . I considered a redirect to Bhatta Narayana, but it's not mentioned in the target and about all that could be said is that it is a treatise on astrology.
 * Jay Prince nominated at RfD; notified ; Target: Mura Masa (notified) 04:57, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Suggest deleting. I considered trying to de-redirect it into an article, but I don't think the sourcing is available. The term is mentioned in the target, but in passing (Jay Prince was on one track Mura Masa produced). I think it's more confusing than anything to have it redirect there.
 * Yousef Salama nominated at AfD; notified 16:12, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NPROF. Assistant professor per bio at An-Najah National University; citations on Scholar are weak in a field where this is (as I recall) relevant; and the claim that he is an "ambassador" to Japan seems highly exaggerated, if not outright false, given.
 * Death of Darren Ng Wei Jie nominated at AfD; notified 04:45, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Like many brutal crimes, this one has received its fair share of news coverage. However, I fail to see how the coverage gets it past WP:NOTNEWS or WP:NCRIME.
 * Raj Anand nominated at AfD; notified 17:41, 18 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:BASIC and WP:NBUSINESSPEOPLE as an exec at two non-notable companies. Citations are either dead or unhelpful.
 * Brennah Black nominated at AfD; notified 00:03, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:BASIC, WP:ENT, and WP:NACTOR. There is lots of coverage in Inquisitr, and virtually nowhere else, which leads me to believe that Inquisitr is a paid-for spam website.
 * Template:Wild animal suffering nominated at TfD; notified 21:37, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I think this template fails WP:NPOV and WP:OR. What we have are a set of vaguely related concepts under the general rubric of harm to animals, some of which are entirely unspecific (e.g., injury and extreme weather), some of which are dubiously related (e.g., animal vaccination), and some of which represent tenuous, WP:OR-inflected connections (e.g., Peter Singer, which does not mention wild animal suffering in the body). I'm having trouble seeing how these topics form, or could form through modification, a coherent set outside the context of this template.
 * Siddharth Singh (civil servant) nominated at AfD; notified 04:00, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NPOL and WP:BASIC. Coverage like seems to be mainly about programmes with which he has been involved, and not about him personally.
 * Le Conte Avenue nominated at AfD; notified 04:12, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: My prod a while back was declined because this was deprodded with no rationale in 2016. This two-block-ish street seems a clear WP:GEOROAD fail. Unless there is a redirect target I'm not seeing, seems no suitable ATD either.
 * Morelli Law Firm nominated at AfD; notified 04:46, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Law firm that has had a few notable clients, but notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. I cannot find WP:SIGCOV of the firm. (They like to purchase native advertising like and, but this won't help it pass WP:NCORP.)
 * Claudia K. Williams nominated at AfD; notified 19:13, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NBUSINESSPEOPLE, WP:NPOL, and WP:BASIC. The CEO of a non-notable health company and a government health advisor at a level that doesn't appear high enough for WP:NPOL.
 * List of American animated television series by episode count nominated at AfD; notified 02:26, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:LISTN and WP:INDISCRIMINATE. No indication that this is a topic discussed as a coherent set by reliable sources.
 * Sam Seung Jung nominated at AfD; notified 02:39, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Far, far below the WP:NPOL bar and the only "source" I could find for WP:BASIC in my search was his LinkedIn page. Sources in the article are either passing mentions or not independent.
 * List of people on multiple governing boards nominated at AfD; notified 02:01, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:LISTN. Not much else to say besides that. This information can and should be in the individual list members' articles, but the list itself amounts to an unencyclopedic cross-categorization.
 * Erica Brister nominated at AfD; notified 03:00, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Borderline WP:G11 about a businessperson who fails WP:BASIC and WP:NBUSINESSPEOPLE. Her claims to notability are being the CEO of a non-notable company and the founder of a non-notable festival. WP:BEFORE reveals interviews and press releases.
 * Leadership Initiatives nominated at AfD; notified 03:05, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Nonprofit that fails WP:NORG and WP:NCORP. Deleted a fair number of times around a decade ago, and does not appear to have gained notability since then.

November 2020

 * Brandon Pritzl nominated at AfD; notified 17:27, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Assistant college football coach who fails WP:NSPORTS. Prod recently removed with an invalid rationale.
 * Jill O'Sullivan nominated at AfD; notified 17:22, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This has been sticking around the new pages queue since August, so I'm seeking consensus. Seems like a borderline case for WP:MUSICBIO based on and, but I'm not absolutely clear on notability so am bringing it here.
 * Francesca De Grandis nominated at AfD; notified 04:53, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NAUTHOR and WP:BASIC. I count one very short review of one of her books and virtually nothing else.
 * UK Watch nominated at AfD; notified 00:04, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:GNG and WP:NWEB; tagged for notability since 2009 with no improvement. A website that apparently failed to launch, since the URL is now occupied by an unrelated site. The lone source is barely a blurb and I wasn't able to find anything else.
 * List of places visited by Guru Nanak nominated at AfD; notified 00:10, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Almost entirely unreferenced list that, I believe, fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Will happily withdraw if it turns out that these visits form a coherent set meeting WP:LISTN—Guru_Nanak suggests that they might—but at present I'm not seeing it.
 * Evan Ryan nominated at AfD; notified 16:42, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NPOL as a former Assistant Secretary of State for Educational and Cultural Affairs, and I don't believe she meets WP:BASIC either. She is Antony Blinken's wife and has gotten some coverage in the context of his soon-to-be nomination as secretary of state, but WP:NOTINHERITED and WP:BLP1E counsel against including a biography for that reason alone. Would be happy to be proved wrong.
 * Success is unbounded nominated at RfD; notified ; Target: Social status (notified) 21:39, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This might actually be an article, but it's functioning as a redirect now and I think the title has so vague a connection with social status that this should just be deleted.

December 2020

 * Perspective Getting nominated at AfD; notified 04:35, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:ESSAY on a non-notable WP:NEOLOGISM sourced entirely to primary research, virtually all of which is written by or with Nicholas Epley. The only paper I saw on Scholar that's about this topic (with Epley as one of the authors)——has 70 cites.
 * Urban Alliance Foundation nominated at AfD; notified 17:42, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Promo for a non-notable organization, apparently co-founded by Jeffrey Zients. I see virtually no independent, secondary sources.
 * Charles Cicchetti nominated at AfD; notified 06:02, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Economist who may fail WP:NPROF. He has reasonable cites on Scholar, but most of the highly-cited papers are co-authored. His official bio claims he was the Jeffrey J. Miller Professor in Government, Business, and the Economy at USC, but I cannot find independent confirmation that this position exists (and seems odd that he would be appointed as an endowed chair right after being an adjunct). In the news now for filing a declaration in Texas v. Pennsylvania, but WP:BLP1E.
 * Category:Prominent members of the Oxford University L'Chaim Society nominated at CfD (CfD); notified 05:31, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Per WP:SUBJECTIVECAT. What is the criterion for determining who is "prominent" enough a member of Oxford University L'Chaim Society for inclusion?
 * Doctors for America nominated at AfD; notified 01:21, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NORG due to a lack of in-depth coverage in secondary sources. I considered a redirect to Vivek Murthy, but as he's a co-founder we'd have a WP:XY problem.
 * Leslie Landau: nominated at AfD; notified 04:54, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: No indication of passing WP:NCREATIVE or WP:BASIC. IMDB and list minimal credits and nothing else.
 * Category:Jewish Japanologists: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified 03:54, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Per WP:OCEGRS. I have a very hard time believing that being Jewish and a Japanologist is a WP:DEFINING feature of any of the scholars tagged here.
 * Category:American scientists of Italian descent: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified 07:55, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:OCEGRS. I am quite skeptical that being "of Italian descent" is a WP:DEFINING feature of the American scientists in this category.

January 2021

 * Category:Gay academics: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified 17:34, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:OCEGRS. For some reason this is restricted to people who identify as men—but the term "gay" can be used to refer to nonbinary folks, women, and men. Category:LGBT studies academics is a legitimate category, but this is not.
 * Eugene Goodman (police officer): nominated at AfD; notified 16:20, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Classic WP:BLP1E. I suggest delete and redirect to 2021 storming of the United States Capitol. If he gets the Medal of Honor (unclear if he can, since his acts of heroism were not related to his military service), he might meet WP:SOLDIER, but that's an essay.
 * Seneca Mission Indian Church Grounds Desecration: nominated at AfD; notified 00:36, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Essay on local history, based on original research, with a strong point of view. I can find no reliable sources describing the alleged desecration as such.
 * Robert Akerlof: nominated at AfD; notified 18:58, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Does not appear to meet WP:NPROF. Associate professor with middling cites on Scholar. Notability is WP:NOTINHERITED from parents Janet Yellen or George Akerlof.

April 2021

 * Ken McNeil: nominated at RfD; Target: Kent McNeil (notified) 17:57, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Might qualify for WP:R3, but if I read the guideline correctly I should be bringing this here. Article was created under an incorrect name—the subject's name is Kent, not Ken, McNeil, and I don't know of any instance in which he's referred to by Ken sans T.

May 2021

 * Yizzy: nominated at AfD; notified 00:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This is a tough one (not least because I'm a fan). There is coverage - see, eg,, , , , , , but virtually all of it is heavily interview-based or promotional, or both. The closest to critical commentary I see is (on the BBC). Tagged for notability since its creation in 2018, so it'd be nice to resolve this in any event.

August 2021

 * List of hip hop albums considered to be influential: nominated at AfD; notified 00:46, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Inclusion criteria for this list are necessarily arbitrary, contrary to WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Tagged as a WP:ESSAY since 2019, which policy it also arguably fails.

September 2021

 * ÏCE Condominiums at York Centre: nominated at AfD; notified 20:38, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NBUILD and WP:GNG. A condo complex in a city with a surfeit of such. Brief mentions in reputable media such as The Globe and Mail re: its allegedly huge number of Airbnb units, but no in-depth coverage of the building or its architecture.

October 2021

 * Rex Martin: nominated at AfD; notified 01:07, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Promotional WP:BLP of an ostensible "virtuoso" tuba player that fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:BASIC. And, in any event, a plausible WP:TNT candidate, given that it mostly consists of an unsourced resume.
 * Driving Instructors (Registration) Act 2016: nominated at AfD; notified 04:56, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Article on a non-notable statute, sourced entirely to Hansard and text of the statute itself. (And therefore WP:OR.) AFAIK, statutes are subject to the same notability standards as any other topic, and this one fails WP:GNG.
 * Foster v. Wolkowitz: nominated at AfD; notified 03:20, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Apparently insignificant court case cited a grand total of 19 times according to Google. Couldn't find any real hits for either of the citations: 785 N.W.2d 59, 486 Mich. 356.
 * List of Recorders of Penang, Singapore and Malacca: nominated at AfD; notified 23:52, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: There may be a rationale for delimiting this list to cover all and only recorders of Penang, Malacca, and Singapore from 1808 to 1867, but I don't see it. All of these places were part of the Straits Settlements, but there were other colonies in the Straits Settlements. And 1808 doesn't seem to be a significant date in the history of any of these places, unless the position of recorder was inaugurated then (a fact not alluded to in the article). This says that a British colonial court opened in Penang on 31 May 1808, presided over by a recorder, but this says that a unified court for Penang, Malacca, and Singapore didn't exist until 27 November 1826, pursuant to the Second Charter of Justice (an article that now goes on my list to create). All in all, I'm quite confused and think this list fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE and WP:NLIST.

November 2021

 * Melanie Reinhart: nominated at AfD; notified 02:13, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This is a WP:FRINGEBLP of a non-notable subject. I can find no reviews of her books in reliable sources for WP:NAUTHOR. I don't think winning the Charles Harvey Award for Exceptional Service to Astrology  counts for WP:ANYBIO. The best source I could find is, but it's a book by astrologers published by an occult publisher.
 * Spoken Web: nominated at AfD; notified 20:12, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Website and organisation that appears to fail WP:NORG. There is a project based in India by the same name that may be notable, and the general concept of audio-based access to the internet is probably notable, but this website based in Tel Aviv does not appear notable. I found this page while looking for Spoken Web, a Canadian site for oral history of literature—yet another unrelated project.
 * De Verley: nominated at AfD; notified 01:37, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Unsourced permastub that can't be turned into a dab because there's nothing to disambiguate. I would redirect to Varley but there's no one named "de Verley" on that page.
 * Mark Jenkins (fitness trainer): nominated at AfD; notified 04:11, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Borderline WP:G11 profile of a personal trainer. Not seeing sufficient coverage in reliable sources to pass WP:BASIC.
 * Vesey Alfred Davoren: nominated at AfD; notified 03:01, 26 November 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Appears to fail WP:NACTOR and WP:BASIC (WP:SOLDIER is now deprecated). There are some hits for "Vesey Davoren" or "Vesey O'Davoren" on newspapers.com but nothing approaching WP:SIGCOV I can see. Film roles generally minor. Sourced mainly to genealogical records; see WP:NOTMEMORIAL and WP:NOTGENEALOGY.

December 2021

 * Achilles Alexandrakis: nominated at AfD; notified 06:03, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This is an interesting one. Article on an obscure fictional character entirely unsourced since it was created in 2006. I just created Jennette Lee. She wrote the novel Mr. Achilles, of which Achilles Alexandrakis is the titular character. Lee is certainly notable, Mr. Achilles might be depending on how many reviews are lurking around, but the protagonist of this forgotten novel almost certainly isn't notable. Repurposing to an article on the novel would require hjiacking the title and there's nothing sourced to merge to Jennette Lee or Mr. Achilles (assuming that could legitimately be created).

January 2022

 * Category:Books about American repression: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified 03:21, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Unclear conclusion criteria, thereby failing WP:INDISCRIMINATE. "Repression" is a contested, diffuse concept that is not made clearer by adding "American" to it. Only one of the members uses the word "repression" in the body or title—Political Repression in Modern America.
 * The Game of Alice in Wonderland: nominated at AfD; notified 02:08, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I came across this while trying to clean up Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The two sources are dead, as is the link in the attribution template on Talk:The Game of Alice in Wonderland. There is another game, called The New & Diverting Game of Alice in Wonderland, which is probably not notable either but which I see some hits for: . I'd happily be proven wrong here but I don't see a GNG pass
 * Leon Coward: nominated at AfD; notified 15:39, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Australian pianist who does not pass WP:BASIC or WP:ENT. The best references are a series of (non-solo) concert reviews in a single online publication published by British Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies. Those concerts are by a family ensemble called Camerata Academica of the Antipodes composed of siblings Leon, Imogen Coward, and Taliésin Coward. I don't think they give him notability (even assuming a series of reviews in a marginal, non-expert publication could do so anyway, which is doubtful).

July 2022

 * Works of authority on the United Kingdom constitution: nominated at AfD; notified 01:03, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:OR and WP:POV. While of course some works are authoritative about (some aspects of) the constitution of the United Kingdom, there is no neutral, objective standard by which to select the items on this list.
 * Sadis & Goldberg: nominated at AfD; notified 04:36, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: A run-of-the-mill law firm with no refs that clearly establish WP:NCORP. A mix of PR and dubious industry awards. Wikipedia is not attorney advertising.
 * Ron S. Geffner: nominated at AfD; notified 15:27, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:BASIC and WP:NBUSINESSPEOPLE. Has apparently been interviewed on notable platforms like Bloomberg Television but I see no in-depth coverage of him personally in reliable, independent sources. I have also nominated Sadis & Goldberg for deletion at Articles for deletion/Sadis & Goldberg but these are probably best dealt with separately.
