Helen M. Radics

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Has been once speedy deleted and once (by me) as a result af an AfD nomination. The article was recreated earlier this month, and I still do not see notability. Ymblanter (talk) 16:16, 24 April 2016 (UTC)
 * The author states that the photo is taken by them meaning they are a sock of the author of two previous articles (previously warned about recreation of deleted pages). Suggest salting.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:21, 24 April 2016 (UTC)


 * You beat me to it — I came across this page on an uncategorized-articles tagging run, thought it looked iffy, and was planning to nominate it for AFD as soon as I got back from running to the store. I'm definitely not seeing any strong or credible claim to notability, as opposed to mere existence, here — "Hungarian Life Network named Helen M. Radics as their official spokesperson for "Walnut Roll" for the 2010 Christmas Season, during which she lead her Walnut Roll Team to victory in Life Network's annual battle between Walnut Roll and Poppy Seed Roll", in particular, strikes me as one of the oddest attempts at a notability claim that I've seen in at least the past few years. The number of subscribers a person has on YouTube does not count toward notability if reliable sources aren't writing about her presence on YouTube. The other notability claim here is that she appeared on CTV News, but no sources are cited for that in this version at all — however, the old version did reference it to a YouTube video which reveals that the appearance was not on a national CTV News program (which might have counted for something), but only on CTV's local newscast on CKCO-DT in Kitchener (which does not constitute a credible notability claim at all). The preponderance of ™ and ® symbols in the body text strongly suggests that the core intent was advertorial rather than encyclopedic, and this isn't actually making or sourcing a better claim of notability than the first version did, either. Wikipedia is not a free public relations platform on which anybody is entitled to have an article just because they can be verified as existing: it's an encyclopedia, on which an article is earned by meeting certain specific standards of notability and sourceability which have not been passed here.

 * Delete as certainly noticeably unacceptable, nothing else, the "TM" marks are enough there and not to mention then the complete bareness of actual contextual sources. SwisterTwister   talk  05:08, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
