Red-link names in a list of notable faculty
In a list of notables all the names should be either blue or red links. It's recommended to wait until a name has an article before adding it to the list. That's the advice contained in our uw-badlistentry template and the Write the article first essay. Which leads me to wonder why aren't following the recommendation.

Editors finding red-links in a list of notables will often remove them. This is especially true when there are either no references or the references don't seem to satisfy any notability guidelines. Sometimes this leads to an extended cycle of removals and insertions of the same red links.

I believe the requirements to be included in the notable faculty list are:
 * they are a faculty member
 * they meet the Wikipedia notabilty criteria

Not all faculty are notable. Having a Wikipedia biography is normally accepted as proof of notability. Names without a biography should have references sufficient to show they meet a notability guideline. The guidelines that typically apply to faculty would be WP:BIO, WP:PROF or WP:N.

Some of the red-linked names have references that leave their notability in doubt. References to their work place biography page or press releases (or articles based on press releases) usually are not helpful to notability. I see little to be gained by leaving those red-links in place. It's likely they'll be removed by editors at some point and we'll cycle around again and again. I'd like to hear from other editors what their views are, particularly if they feel it is important to add names before writing an article.

Hello. As someone involved in recent changes to Kiliaen Van Rensselaer you may be interesting in a proposal I've made on the article talk page regarding reverting to the redirect that had been in place since 2005. Thanks for your attention. Gab4gab (talk) 17:56, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

In addition to making disclosure it's important to read the material in Conflict of interest looking closely at Conflict of interest. Not surprisingly there are more things to keep in mind than making a disclosure. For example: Editors with a financial conflict of interest, including paid editors, are advised not to edit affected articles.

Notability JF-PM WP:BEFORE All provided references are closely associated with the subject. My research revealed no significant coverage in independent reliable sources. There were mentions of the org name in NGO lists. Such as a reports on work related the problem of human trafficking. There is an organization website although another website is listed in the article. There was a catholic parish newsletter article that was about the same as 'Objective' section. Otherwise I found only trivial coverage outside of Jesuit publications. Gab4gab (talk) 15:22, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

That's not much independent coverage of Viv. Character mentions in a plot summary are routine and not an indication of exceptional notability. I'll look over the other sources mentioned here and update if I've missed something helpful to notability. Gab4gab (talk) 16:08, 10 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Comments As Argento Surfer mentioned there is little guidence regarding articles for fictional characters. Previous Afd discussions don't show a lot of consistency in the criteria applied. We do have something in WP:BKMERGE which says (among other things) "...it is not normally advisable to have a separate article on a character or thing from the book,..."  Which is contrary to the idea that any major character is 'Wikipedia notable', although it goes on to say there are exceptions. Typically we look for significant coverage by independent reliable sources. Source content that is written by or an interview response from a connected individual does not contribute to notability.  This is the case with some of the sources in the article and mentioned here. Coverage in press releases is not independent and thus not helpful to notability. Looking at the current sources in the article:
 * The King Builds a Better Family in “Vision" article is an interview of Tom King. Not independent coverage.
 * The Marvel's 'Champions': Young superheroes channel activist sides in new series article is another interview of connected individuals. Not independent coverage.
 * The Marvel teases that Viv Vision will change the world in October’s “Champions” article has trivial mentions of Viv. It's just a couple sentences and a list of Champions #1 facts.
 * The Hydra strikes in first preview of Marvel's Secret Empire #1  article has just her name in a list of characters.
 * The They Are Champions At Kissing… ( Squee SPOILERS) is a brief article with, imo, one trivial fact.
 * The In Champions, Viv Vision’s Wi-Fi Password Will Break Your Heart article does have several mentions of Viv as it runs through the story line.
 * The Champions #4 Review: A Sea Faring Adventure With No Pirates article mentions Viv a few times as the story line is summarized. There are four sentences discussing the Viv character separate from the story line content.
 * The Viv Vision Skills Intro | MARVEL Tsum Tsum  video is not independent, thus not helpful to notability.

We look into the sources:

CopyVio
Hello ____________, welcome to the Teahouse. Guidance on how to handle this can be found in WP:Copyright problems. One approach is to rewrite the material so it is no longer a violation. That might be difficult in this case. It's possible the content, although copied, is in the public domain. It's possible to blank the portion that may be a violation using and let others look into it. There are detailed instruction within WP:Copyright problems. It's a bit intimidating the first time or two. Gab4gab (talk) 20:21, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
