User:Voorts/XfD log

This is a log of pages that I have nominated for deletion using Twinkle or the NPP Curation Toolbar. Please see my AfD stats and XfD stats (but cf. WP:NOTAFDSTATS).

April 2023

 * A Mile in His Shoes: nominated at AfD; notified 17:32, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This article does not meet WP:NFILM. The only reviews I could find are from three Christian websites, which briefly describe the plot and note whether it is appropriate for children being raised in the Christian faith. Those reviews are at Movie Mom (which is no longer live), Common Sense Media, and Dove.org. Setting aside whether those sources are reliable, none of the reviews meet the standard for significant coverage as they are brief, highly context specific, and do not contain any additional relevant information about the film.
 * Sabato's Crystal Ball: nominated at AfD; notified 01:48, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I recently nominated this article for WP:PROD. User:Elli has requested that this proceed by AfD instead, so here is the rational I provided on PROD:Per WP:CORPDEPTH, there does not appear to be any significant coverage of this organization. All references appear to be trivial (i.e., to their predictions, rather than to coverage of the organization qua organization). (See also User:NewsAndEventsGuy's post here).I look forward to your thoughts.

May 2023

 * Category:Mahamevnawa Buddhist Monastery: nominated at CfD (CfD); notified 01:46, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:SMALL
 * Intellectual property policy: nominated at AfD; notified 01:02, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: The topic of this article appears to be overly broad and adequately covered by other articles. What the article calls "National IP policies"such as patent and copyright termsare very different from, for example, university IP licensing agreements and corporate transparency/trade secrets. There does not appear to be a good reason to conflate each of those distinct concepts in a single article. Moreover, those concepts are all dealt with more extensively in other articles, such as Technology transfer (for universities), Intellectual property (for broad policy considerations in forming a national/international IP regime), and Trade secrets. As this article is poorly sourced and has several tone issues, I do not think merger is appropriate (or really possible) and recommend deletion.
 * Ocean Mysteries with Jeff Corwin: nominated at AfD; notified 23:58, 21 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:GNG. Apart from trivial mentions regarding the show's Emmy wins, there are only only a few WP:RSes:, , and were written around the time of the show's release, and focus more on the Georgia Aquarium than the show.  and  are pretty trivial.  focuses on the subject of the particular episode (sea lions), rather than the show itself.
 * Mertens: nominated at RfD; Target: Dries Mertens (notified); notified 01:52, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: There are dozens of articles where the subject has the surname Mertens per [[Mertens (surname).

June 2023

 * Global business interests of Pat Robertson: nominated at RfD; Target: Pat Robertson (notified); notified 22:40, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Delete: not a search term for the subject of the article. See also this RfD.

July 2023

 * Restricted military area: nominated at AfD; notified 20:42, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: WP:NOTDICT per 's.
 * Amendment to allege use: nominated at AfD; notified 02:33, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails GNG and NOTDICT. The article subject is a legal term of art describing a procedure in trademark practice in the United States. The sources added by are either how-to guides or forms for lawyers, continuing legal education materials (which are generally just collections of primary sources [e.g., statutory materials or regulations] or outlines), or trivial mentions. I conducted a BEFORE search via Google scholar and Google books found no SIGCOV of this concept in a way that would allow this article to be other than a definition or how-to page.

October 2023

 * Lynda Suzanne Robinson: nominated at AfD; notified 21:09, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Conducted BEFORE search and found no SIRS. Fails GNG and NAUTHOR.
 * OK Overture: nominated at AfD; notified 15:22, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Per NSONG: Coverage of a song in the context of an album review does not establish notability. If the only coverage of a song occurs in the context of reviews of the album on which it appears, that material should be contained in the album article and an independent article about the song should not be created.I have found no coverage of this song outside of the context of reviews of the album.
 * Nathan Hale Arts Magnet Elementary School: nominated at AfD; notified 21:43, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Conducted WP:BEFORE search and the only significant coverage of this school appears to be from The Day, a local newspaper. There's no evidence that the previous Nathan Hale Grammar School and Elementary School, which may or may not be notable on their own, have any link to the Magnet School other than a shared name.
 * Little Bricks Charity: nominated at AfD; notified 18:58, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails GNG and NCORP. Per BEFORE search, almost all of the sources are (1) routine, trivial coverage of the organization donating legos to a hospital; (2) interviews with the organization's founder; or (3) fluff pieces about the founder's setting a Guinness World Record. I have not uncovered any independent sources covering the organization in-depth. Upworthy, cited in the article, is definitely not an RS.

November 2023

 * Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers' Institute: nominated at AfD; notified 16:36, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Highly promotional article about a firearms standards development organization (i.e., an industry-run trade group that sets voluntary standards) that fails NCORP. Almost all of the sources cited in the article are primary sources. The only sources I've been able to uncover that discuss the organization in-depth are from trade or gun hobbyist publications, which fails ORGIND (particularly here, where the trade publications are also run by organizations that have ties to the firearms manufacturing industry).
 * Envo Drive Systems: nominated at AfD; notified 21:16, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails NCORP. Of the sources cited and other sources I could find through searches, none meet CORPDEPTH because they are routine news stories.
 * Crimean tunnel: nominated at AfD; notified 23:12, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: TOOSOON. A proposed tunnel project that hasn't been built, despite several years of discussions, is not notable.

December 2023

 * The Go Getters: nominated at AfD; notified 05:10, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails GNG and does not appear to meet NBAND. The sources cited in the article are not RSes: DISCOGS, Beat offers paid native content, Worldkustom.com has no editorial standards and appears to be an SPS, and volt.fm is a website to track Spotify statistics. The Weekend Edition is the only RS, but that does not provide SIGCOV. I have been unable to find additional sources from searching Google and TWL databases.
 * Dictator Amir: nominated at AfD; notified 02:54, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails NBIO and GNG Sources cited here and other sources I have found are all routine coverage or tabloid-style celebrity reporting. The "Education background" and "Career" sections are completely uncited.
 * Carbliss: nominated at AfD; notified 03:13, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails NCORP. Almost all of the sources cited here are promotional, sponsored segments or interviews with the founder published in local news sources. Other sources I've been able to find via Google and Google News are likewise sponsored content.
 * Yongama Zigebe: nominated at AfD; notified 22:25, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails NPOL and NBIO. Currently, the only source cited contains one sentence about the article subject: "Yongama Zigebe filled the secretary general position left vacant by Msomi." I could not find any other sources that provide significant coverage of the article subject. The article subject does not meet any of the secondary criteria in NPOL because he is not an elected government official.
 * ANYbotics: nominated at AfD; notified 18:39, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails NCORP. Sources I could find are either trade publications or routine coverage of funding. Only RSes I could find are a couple of articles in CNBC.
 * Precisionary Instruments: nominated at AfD; notified 01:33, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails NCORP. The only coverage I could find or that is cited in the article is trivial. For example, sources 4 and 5 merely establish that the company's products exist. Source 2 is trivial coverage about moving the company's headquarters. A Bloomberg company profile does not establish notability. The remaining sources do not fare any better.

January 2024

 * Sri Sai Gurucharitra: nominated at AfD; notified 19:15, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable book. The sources cited here are either the book itself or a non-reliable website venerating the article's subject. Nothing in Google Scholar or Google Books showing any citations to the book or any analysis of it. In any event, this should be blown up, and anything salvageable merged with Sai Baba of Shirdi.
 * Isla Phillips: nominated at RfD; Target: Peter Phillips (notified); notified 02:45, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: has suggested that RfD is likely the proper venue for concerns with the revision histories of Isla Phillips and Savannah Phillips. Both of them are minor children who are far down in line to the British throne. Over the years, several editors have attempted to create articles about them, resulting in the redirect being restored each time. I propose RD5-ing all of the diffs that contain those articles because there is no conceivable way Phillips meets NBIO or GNG, and information about her should be removed per NPF.
 * Sandra Claxton: nominated at AfD; notified 19:17, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable researcher under basic criteria for notability. A search turned up no significant coverage other than the Sydney Morning Herald article. Notability guideline for academics does not apply because she was not a professor at an academic institution.
 * Sunwise Media: nominated at AfD; notified 20:19, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails CORPDEPTH. Nexttv is a trade publication and should not contribute to notability. The rest of the sources and sources I've found online are just brief mentions of the company. The source in good faith after removing PROD does not even mention the company. This can maybe be merged with Ri-Karlo Handy, but I think that article already has the relevant information about the company and adding more would be undue.
 * Manoj Anand: nominated at AfD; notified 20:36, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable actor. No independent sources that I can find and the Hindi version of this article is similarly under-referenced.
 * Isla Phillips: nominated at AfD; notified 23:08, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I am proposing the following diffs be deleted per RD5:* * to *  to *  to Savannah Phillips:*  to * *  to *  to Background: I requested REVDEL by emailing, who declined and said that a consensus for deletion would be needed. An RfD discussion for these redirects was recently closed, in part on the basis of incorrect forum; per BLAR, AfD is actually the appropriate forum.Rationale: Per RD5, revisions may be deleted for any valid reason under the deletion policy, including lack of notability. Both of these subjects are minor children who lack notability. They are not royals, they are far down in line to the throne, and they have done nothing notable in their lives other than being born. Additionally, per NPF we should remove content about non-public figures.
 * Jillian Michaels (voice actress): nominated at AfD; notified 16:17, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable voice actor. This article was previously deleted when the only citation was to IMDb. Now, almost all of the citations are to behindthevoiceactors.com, which appears to contain user-generated content.
 * Imprisonment of Eddie Núñez: nominated at AfD; notified 18:03, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This article fails Wikipedia's guideline on living persons who are notable for only one event. There's been no sustained coverage of this story as of yet, and it's too soon for an article; Wikipedia is not a news site. Additionally, although this is not an attack page and it states clearly that the charges were dropped, we should be wary of an article containing serious allegations involving child exploitation, anti-semitism, and bomb threats.
 * Disappearance of Gaynor Lord: nominated at AfD; notified 22:28, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Per WP:SENSATIONAL. A case of missing white woman syndrome.
 * Nicole Ritchie (rower): nominated at AfD; notified 22:42, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: The article subject lacks significant coverage in reliable sources. Of the sources cited in the article, Row2K and Inquirer are trivial mentions. Bates, Team USA, another Bates, Temple are not independent because they are bios from employers or teams of which she is a member. Brattleboro Reformer contains significant coverage, but it is highly promotional and appears to be run of the mill reporting.
 * 2024 New York City stabbing spree: nominated at AfD; notified 00:45, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Wikipedia is not a news site and it's too soon for an article on a series of crimes that will likely not have lasting or persistent coverage. This particular series of crimes are not particularly high-profile outside of NYC, and it's run-of-the-mill coverage.
 * National Messaging System: nominated at AfD; notified 02:37, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: It's too soon for an article on a government program that was just funded and is in the early stages of planning, with no guarantee that it will actually be completed and limited details on what the program will do. Suggest draftifying as it might be finished by the end of 2024.
 * RondoNumbaNine: nominated at AfD; notified 23:25, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable rapper. The article subject was not notable before he was arrested for murder, and he is not notable for the murder under PERP or BLP1E.
 * Basile High School: nominated at AfD; notified 00:05, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This high school lacks notability. I could not find significant coverage in secondary, reliable sources, just trivial mentions in local newspapers. Per SCHOOLOUTCOMES, the general consensus is that high schools are not inherently notable.
 * Uptown Scottsbluff: nominated at AfD; notified 04:03, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable shopping mall that lacks significant coverage in reliable sources. The sources cited here either contain trivial mentions of the article subject (for example, in the context of individual store closures) or they are routine, run-of-the-mill news stories about corporate changes.
 * Madeleine Wade: nominated at AfD; notified 22:14, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable actress with no significant coverage in reliable sources. The only significant coverage cited in the article are interviews, which lack independence; the rest of the articles cited are trivial mentions.

February 2024

 * Gleeds: nominated at AfD; notified 03:50, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable consulting company. The only sources appear to be trade publications, and all of the reporting appears to be run-of-the-mill.
 * Miami mall incident: nominated at AfD; notified 04:48, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable event with only primary news reporting that is likely to lack persistent coverage.
 * Nelson M. Lopez: nominated at AfD; notified 05:14, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Non-notable chess player. The sources cited here either do not contain significant coverage (e.g., a brief mention in a New York Times article) or they are not reliable (e.g., ofchess.org). The only significant coverage I could find is not enough to meet the GNG.
 * List of apps with Google Cast support: nominated at AfD; notified 20:17, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Previously nominated for deletion in 2014 with low participation and very weak keep !votes. A clear case of WP:NOTDATABASE that fails WP:LISTN and is too ephemeral to be properly maintained.
 * Ken Hermann (disambiguation): nominated at AfD; notified 20:23, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Ineligible for PROD. The PROD rationale by was: "Invalid and unnecessary disambiguation page containing the primary topic and only one other topic." Pinging  who seconded the PROD.
 * EBikeGo: nominated at AfD; notified 23:30, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Subject fails the notability guideline for companies and the products section reads like promotional material. All of the coverage of this company seems to consist of trivial announcements (for example, product releases, funding, hiring, and acquisitions) in trade publications.
 * Tarn Willers: nominated at AfD; notified 02:32, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Although he meets ANYBIO #1, that criterion only indicates likely, not presumptive, notability under the GNG ("meeting one or more [criteria] does not guarantee that a subject should be included"). After searching, I have not been able to find significant coverage in reliable sources.

March 2024

 * Low Pavement, Chesterfield: nominated at AfD; notified 16:09, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: I have not been able to find significant coverage of this road in reliable sources. The sources in the article are listings of individual buildings, but there's no evidence those buildings meet WP:NBUILDING.

April 2024

 * Going Ape: nominated at AfD; notified 03:40, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This article was previously deleted after an expired PROD. I could not find significant coverage of this documentary in reliable sources. I could not find any critical reviews. The New York TImes source states, in full: "This three-part series looks at the way humans mimic chimpanzee behavior, starting with the power walk and dominance posture of the alpha male." The Futon Critic is a press release. A redirect to National Geographic Channel might be appropriate.
 * Lev Trotskij: nominated at RfD; Target: Leon Trotsky (notified); notified 04:10, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Delete per WP:RFD. This appears to be the spelling of Trotsky's name in various North Germanic languages and this spelling isn't used in the article.
 * Template:R from gap in series: nominated at TfD; notified 21:19, 30 April 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Rarely used RCAT. Almost all of the redirects tagged with this RCAT are redirects to sections about particular countries in annual Eurovision contest article. Additionally, the instructions are contradictory: the RCAT says it is for topics that "do[] not meet notability requirements to warrant [their] own article[s]", but then says that it should be tagged with R with possibilities if the topic could be notable. All of these redirects can be sufficiently handled by R to subtopic and, as appropriate, R to section.

May 2024

 * Violin Sonata in B minor: nominated at AfD; notified 19:48, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This disambiguation page is redundant of Sonata in B minor, which was originally at this title before a page move. The redirect was then reverted. The two sonatas listed here are already covered at Sonata in B minor (a broader disambiguation page). Additionally, one of the sonatas listed here (Sonata in B minor (Atterberg)) is only a partial-title match because it is generically for strings, not solely for violin. I propose restoring the redirect. I am also nominating the following page for redirecting as well since it is also redundant:
 * 2012 New South Wales mayoral elections: nominated at AfD; notified 05:10, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:GNG and WP:NLIST. I have not found significant coverage of this topic. Also fails WP:NOTDB; including all of the results for all of the mayoral elections would make this page massive.
 * Template:Xlate: nominated at TfD; notified 22:18, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Per WP:TFD #3, this template is not used and has no likelihood of being used.
 * Template:R to sports team: nominated at TfD; notified 01:25, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Only used on three redirects and redundant to R from member.
 * Ron Johnson (rapper): nominated at RfD; Target: Yuno Miles (notified); notified 00:44, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: The name of Yuno Miles being "Ron Johnson" was sourced to WP:GENIUS (see ), which is WP:GUNREL, particularly for a WP:BLP. I could not find any other sources that indicate that Miles' name is actually "Ron Johnson", nor do any of the sources mentioned in the ongoing AfD for Yuno Miles contain that name.
 * Hadarou Sare: nominated at AfD; notified 03:27, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: The article subject is a non-notable entrepreneur and PhD student. I could not find any reliable sources containing significant coverage of the subject. None of the sources currently cited in the article establish notability: and  are interviews in trade publications that read like puff pieces.  does not have any clear editorial standards, is based on an interview, and also reads like a puff piece.  is a bio and abstract for a talk he gave at a seminar.  is an interview with the organizers of the same seminar.  is the subject's company's website.  is an advertising website.  is a slideshow about a project that the subject worked on.
 * 1978 West Virginia judicial elections: nominated at AfD; notified 05:14, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: The West Virginia judicial election articles for 1978, 1980, and 1982 all fail WP:NOTDB.
 * Princess Polly: nominated at AfD; notified 11:57, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Contested G11. This appears to have been written by a UPE and reads like an advertisement. All of the coverage I can find is run of the mill. Even if notable, G11 is appropriate.
 * Betamine: nominated at RfD; Target: Betanin (notified); notified 00:55, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Recommend deletion of this redirect, unless a reliable source can be found that betamine = betanin. Currently, the only evidence that's been presented is a 1980 that doesn't exactly say betamine = betanin. Google Scholar turns up three results and Google turns up nothing relevant.
 * Traditional laws of armed conflict: nominated at RfD; Target: Voluntary war (notified); notified 22:51, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: While this term is currently mentioned in the article, the concept writ large generally doesn't have some specific connection to the Jewish law concept of "voluntary war". Delete per WP:REDLINK.
 * KreekCraft: nominated at AfD; notified 00:20, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This streamer is not notable and this article has major BLP issues. I could not find significant coverage of him in reliable sources. The sources cited in the article are mostly his own videos, as well as sites like this.

July 2024

 * 2024 Caribbean Queen's Tournament: nominated at AfD; notified 15:52, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: The only sources that cover this friendly football tournament are run-of-the-mill announcements that the tournament will occur and reporting of the results. This tournament meets neither WP:NEVENT nor WP:GNG.
 * Battle of Lagarde: nominated at AfD; notified 23:33, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: First, WP:D states that we should only disambiguate when "for a given word or phrase on which a reader might search, there is more than one existing Wikipedia article to which that word or phrase might be expected to lead". I think the reference to "Wikipedia article" impliedly means English Wikipedia, not foreign-language Wikipedias. Indeed, MOS:DABMENTION requires that each entry have a blue-linked article, not an interwiki link. Second, the change requires adding a disambiguator to an otherwise unambiguous article title. Finally, there are a significant number of incoming links to this title, presumably because the intended link was Battle of Lagarde (1940), which had been around for 9.5 years at its old title. (A hatnote is not an appropriate alternative because WP:REDHAT states that a hatnote cannot lead to a red link.)
 * Template:Infobox atom: nominated at TfD; notified 23:07, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Per WP:TFD #1, as it is only used in a single article, atom. Moreover, this is a static template that forks infobox; it would be more convenient for editors to just have this be an instance of infobox in the article.
 * File:I Won't Back Down Sample.ogg: ([ log]) nominated at FfD; notified 00:26, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: Fails WP:NFC because this audio clip in the infobox is not the subject of commentary by reliable sources in the body of the article.
 * Eaton Township Weis Markets shooting: nominated at AfD; notified 01:06, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) * Reason: This shooting lacks sustained and continued coverage. This should be redirected to List of mass shootings in the United States, where it already has an entry. The additional detail in this article is (1) a play-by-play of the shooting, (2) an extensive biography of the shooter, and (3) the aftermath section. I do not think merging that information would be appropriate per WP:NOTNEWS.
