I'm not finding the kind of coverage of this news anchor and public relations agent, to meet WP:ENTERTAINER, WP:REPORTER or WP:GNG. What I have found are social media posts, IMDb and other user-submitted content, and several articles about her divorce from her husband (who is notable.) It may have been originally created as an autobiography based on the similarity with the editor's user name. Netherzone (talk) 18:03, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This promotional article on an actress and social media "personality" (influencer) fails WP:GNG and WP:NACTRESS. While it seems that her TikTok is popular, popularity is not a guarantee of notability. A BEFORE search only finds social media posts, IMDb, user submitted content, and fluffy trivial coverage. There may be a COI present (which in itself is not a reason for deletion) as the editor who created it has a user name that is the same as the subject's mother's name (which is mentioned in the article.) That may be purely coincidental, however they also shot the photo used in the article which seems to indicate a connection. It seems to be WP:TOOSOON for this emerging actor.

Reply You seem to be cherry picking. I questioned her notability, period.

How is this notable ash (talk) 05:10, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There is no evidence that she is an FRAS, the source cited above is about Ian Ridpath, not her. If you check her page you will see no mention of it. She may have been elected to the board, but the source provided does not verify that. No indications of anything close to a pass of WP:NPROF, plus lots of problems. Ldm1954 (talk) 14:51, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Addendum after checking the sources, many if the claims in the article are not verified by the sources provided. For instance the claim of election to the RAS council is sourced to the organization webpage which has no such statement. No sources for her education and more unverified claims which I did not see on her web page. Ldm1954 (talk) 15:02, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Ldm1954: You are wrong – the source above isn't just about Ridpath. Her election (among others) is mentioned on that page in the "New Fellows" section: "The following were put forward for election as Fellows of the Society on 12 October 2012...". Bridget (talk) 15:58, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I was wrong, edited.
However, according to both Royal Astronomical Society and what is on the society webpage a "Fellow" is just another name for "Member" for which students can apply. For WP:NPROF we only consider "Fellow" when these are, to quote, a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor such as for APS, MRS, FRS etc. Hence FRAS does not pass WP:NPROF#C3.

Strong delete. I completely agree with what Ldm1954 has said. I don't believe that being a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society can be compared with being a Fellow of, for example, the Royal Society. Someone with specific knowledge of the Royal Astronomical Society can correct me, if necessary, but I suspect that being a Fellow just means that one satisfies some minimal qualification and has paid one's dues. Elizabeth MacArthur may become notable in the future but she's nowhere near being notable at present as her publication and citation record is very modest.

Non-notable organisation. Fails WP:NORG and WP:GNG. While, as expected by WP:NGO, the "scope of their activities is national [..] in scale", there is no indication that the org "has received significant coverage in multiple reliable sources that are independent of the organization". Searches in national news outlets return only passing mentions. For example, a search in The Irish Times returns only passing mentions and "letters to the editor" by people associated with the org. A search on national broadcaster RTÉ 's website returns a single passing mention. A similar search across the entire Irish Independent stable of national/regional/local papers also only returns a single passing mention. Same goes for the Irish Examiner (4 passing mentions), and The Journal (2 passing mentions). Even a broad Google search returns barely 80 results (including the org's own website, socials, the above passing mentions in news articles, and random mentions in Facebook/LinkedIn posts and press releases). Not only is none of this useful in establishing notability, it is even insufficient to allow for expansion of this title beyond the bare sub-stub it has been for years. (Other than its own website, how would we source information on formation, dates, activities, etc?) In terms of WP:ATDs, given that the org isn't even mentioned once elsewhere on the project, I cannot conceive of an appropriate redirection (such that the org could be covered WP:WITHIN another title.)

Page which suffers from a severe case of WP:TOOSOON, being based upon the contested color "Olo". The first version on April 24 was a redirect to imaginary color by Rlendog which OfficialWatchOS7 decided to overwrite with a stub on May 1 without any talk page discussion. To me, since the color is not as yet verified at most it can be a redirect. Rather than getting into an edit war etc time to go to AfD to discuss enforcing redirect (or not). Ldm1954 (talk) 16:29, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Notability is based on reliable sources -- The Guardian, Scientific American, and LiveScience among many others you can find by just googling. Clearly meets WP:GNG and as it represents a possible research method it's notability isn't likely to go away. TOOSOON is an essay that says "If sources do not exist, it is generally too soon for an article on that topic to be considered." But many sources clearly exist, even if the study hasn't yet been replicated. All the article should do is acknowledge that. It's contested whether it's a new color, but that's mostly semantics -- it's a stimulation of the optical cells that doesn't occur naturally, which is interesting.

Keep - He did play at the professional level, but not for long, I see no problem with keeping the article, but it does need to be expanded as it is a stub. ロドリゲス恭子 (talk) 17:44, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Does not meet Wikipedia's notability criteria per WP:GNG and WP:NSPORT. The sources, primarily from Stanford Athletics and Transfermarkt, provide only routine statistics without significant independent coverage. Abolfathi's limited professional record (one match each for Orange County Blue Star and Orange County Blues) and college honors (e.g., 2012 All-Pac-12 Honorable Mention) do not satisfy the requirement for notable achievements or widespread recognition in reliable sources.

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The subject fails WP:GNG due to a lack of significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. Acting roles are minor—brief appearances in Toilet: Ek Prem Katha, Mirzapur, and Aashram and do not meet WP:NACTOR. The "world record" lacks notability, and relation to a politician is irrelevant. Most sources, like ANI press releases and Nai Dunia, are unreliable or do not mention the subject. The article also shows WP:COI issues and feels like WP:TOOSOON.

The article's credibility is further undermined by the page creator uploading an image with false copyright claims, which was deleted twice for violations despite being claimed as their own work. Zuck28 (talk) 15:33, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I do not see multiple independent reliable sources which indicate that WP:LISTN is met. Without such, it seems this list also fails WP:GNG. It must be shown why this deserves to be a standalone list, as opposed to part of the team's article or merged into List of Nashville Vols seasons. Just because individual parts of the list can be cited, it does not mean that the sum total of the parts are notable as a list. Further, I found no previous discussion that this should be be split from the team's article. Flibirigit (talk) 15:26, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or Redirect to American_expansionism_under_Donald_Trump#Danish_and_Greenlandic_reactions. This is a classic case of turning confusing existence with notability and goes against what Wikipedia is not (in this case not a newspaper). All the citations were published the same day. As such, this does not have lasting coverage. I also believe that this event fails WP:EVENT inclusion criteria #4 specifically as this is a viral phenomena.

Delete (possibly Merge): The "Team appearances by tournament" section, could be added to the main RLWC article (possibly combined into a single table (with sources added and a footnote to indicate format change)) and would be more informative than the "top four finishes" table currently in that article. The rest of the stats here show nothing that a reader could not work out for themselves from the "...by tournament" tables. There are no sources given, and although a search indicates that the information could be gathered from database sites, I have not found any sources with significant coverage discussing info like the performances by hosts or previous finalists or that this is any way notable.

  • Delete per TNT. I checked a number of the sources and they're all "near-miss" citation; they sort-of-look like they might be relevant to the sentence to which they're attached, but when you look in detail, they don't actually contain the information that's in the sentence. They don't support it, but they sort-of conceptually feel like they probably might have. The problem is quite subtle. For example, we have the statement "It is common to hear about a "reading crisis". In most case, the pat response is often to instill a "reading culture"." which is supported by ref 13 [6]. The reference discusses the culture of reading in South Africa, and it does indeed talk about a reading culture, but at no point does it say that instilling a reading culture is a pat response to a reading crisis. You could treat this reference as an example of someone talking about a reading crisis and responding that it's important to instill a reading culture, but that would turn the WP article into an essay of original research. Basically, the reference is sort-of in the right area for reading culture, but it's not actually doing the job it's supposed to do. That's just one of the references I checked.

The subject completely fails WP:SPORTCRIT. The "American-Te Goju-Ryu martial arts system and North American Heaven and Earth Society" are not notable. 7th degree black belt in Tang Soo Do, 3rd degree black belt in Tang Soo Do, a 2nd degree black belt in Kempo, and a 5th degree black belt in Goju-Ryu Karate. 9th degree black belt in American-Te Goju-Ryu martial arts. Getting a black belt and mastering an art takes a lifetime, therefore this description seems exaggerated, but common for "traditional martial arts", therefore holds little weight.

  • Comment:Approximately two weeks ago, I nominated four articles created by the nominator for AfD due to notability concerns. Subsequently, another editor nominated some of that nominator's articles for AfD. Recently, I initiated a sockpuppet investigation about the nominator. In response, the nominator began an AfD war related to Somajyoti and me. As an experienced editor myself, I am not worried about this nomination or anything else. However, it is a clear example of Wp:vandalism. Secondly, the current topic is well-notable. As mentioned by Cortador, the incident received widespread national and international media coverage, including from BBC. It was a national issue at the time and played a role in subsequent developments, such as changes in the leadership of Hefazat-e-Islam, shifts in the government's stance toward Islamists, and nationwide unrest, including the anti-Modi protests in Bangladesh.

Per WP:NOTNEWS and WP:EVENTCRIT. Per WP:GNG, "sources should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability". From what I've been able to find, none of the sources were secondary since none of them contained analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the event itself. The event does not have in-depth nor sustained continued coverage of the event itself with coverage only briefly occurring in the aftermath of the accident. WP:EVENTCRIT#4 states that routine kinds of news events including most accidents – whether or not tragic or widely reported at the time – are usually not notable unless something further gives them additional enduring significance, which this event lacks.

  • Keep. While I am usually very suspicious of articles about this kind of business/self-help author, the reviews for his books are well past the threshold for WP:NAUTHOR. Reviews of Maximum Influence in the Journal of Consumer Marketing, the Roanoke Times, the Globe and Mail and the Miami Herald. Reviews of Persuasion IQ in Publishers Weekly (and [17] for the audiobook), the Agent's Sales Journal, Career Planning and Adult Development, AORN Journal and the Journal of School Public Relations. Reviews of The Laws of Charisma in Publishers Weekly, Life Insurance Selling and the Journal of School Public Relations. MCE89 (talk) 04:37, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    These sources essentially encourage separate articles for his books, As PARAKANYAA said, his books are notable, although I disagree that business-type books are better served by an author page. Especially with the amount of sources about the books rather than the author, Kurt.
    I'd encourage the creation of articles for their books, but continue with the deletion of this page as it isn't notable on its own despite WP:NAUTHOR, since the article fails WP:BLP more significantly than NAUTHOR. It doesn't seem to have been written responsibly. It relies on a source from a decade & a half ago and is a relatively unknown person, among other reasoning. NikolaiVektovich (talk) 11:47, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't really know what you mean by "fails WP:BLP"? BLP isn't a notability guideline — the relevant notability guideline here is WP:NAUTHOR, which says that a person who has created a a significant or well-known work or collective body of work that has been the subject of multiple reviews is themselves notable, even if that person hasn't been the subject of secondary biographical coverage. It is very common for articles about authors to be based on reviews of their books. And I'm happy to add the above reviews to the article as sources whenever I get a chance. MCE89 (talk) 12:08, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I concede there. But the above points still stand, and until those sources are added & attributed properly and the article expanded (if those sources are secondary and verifiable, which may not be the case) I believe deletion is still viable. By "fails WP:BLP", I meant it did not meet the content policy for having high quality articles, as stated in its summary it is necessary to take "particular care when adding information about living persons to any Wikipedia page" NikolaiVektovich (talk) 14:15, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    So to clarify, you do agree that this person meets NAUTHOR and are arguing for deletion based on the following reasons at this point:
    • The article is poorly written.
    • The sources in AfD have not been placed in the article.
    • The article is of start/stub class length.
    Offhand only one of those is a valid reason for deletion. Being a short article isn't in and of itself a reason for deletion. An article can be an eternal stub and still be considered worthy of an article - it only has to pass notability requirements. Now a very short article can sometimes be merged into another, if there is an appropriate parent article, but this isn't the case here. As far as the sourcing issue goes, sourcing does not have to be present in the article to establish notability. It should absolutely be added, yes, but the sourcing only has to exist and be of suitable quality and type to establish notability.
    Now the quality argument can be used as an argument for deletion, but this is only meant to be used in very extreme cases, where the article has so many issues that it would be easier to just delete it all and start fresh. These issues are typically things like promotional content and copyright violation, as well as a history of sockpuppetry. This article does need editing, but I wouldn't say that it's so problematic that it needs to be wiped clean from Wikipedia. It just needs some pruning. I also don't see an issue with copyvio and the article doesn't seem to have any issues with sockpuppetry either.
    I get where you're coming from with this, but this is one where the author meets notability guidelines and cleaning up the article isn't a hugely gargantuan task. He's probably always going to be a stub article since he's not overwhelmingly notable, but like I said above, being an eternal stub or start class article doesn't mean that something can't also be notable.

    Well thank you all for the insight, I'll have to rethink it the next time I mark something for deletion.

Keep per MCE89... that his books don't have articles yet does not mean they aren't notable. Business type books especially are better served by an author page. PARAKANYAA (talk) 05:57, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I honestly agree with that. Articles for those are often kind of undersourced (even if they pass NBOOK) and are particularly prone to puffery. Honestly, a lot of times authors in this realm of things tend to kind of write about the same topics, but from different angles, so sometimes all that is needed is a general overview of what the author writes about. I also think that having an author page often discourages people from writing the individual book pages (and same for series pages and individual entries). People are sometimes just looking to see if it's on here and when it's not, that's when we sometimes get people coming on to create articles - sometimes with good intent, sometimes to promote. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 21:08, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The author passes notability guidelines as his works have been covered in multiple, independent, and secondary reliable sources. He'll never be anyone super mainstream, but he's received enough attention to pass NAUTHOR. Also, as stated above I think that having a page for him would be best here, as opposed to ones for his books. We can have a general overview and cover it all well enough there, as opposed to 2-3 individual and lackluster (but still passing NBOOK) entries.

This article fails WP:GNG with flying colors. First, notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. If you remove the relationship this person has with Lady Gaga, then you would be hard pressed to find anything written about them. The subject may be accomplished, but there are absolutely no independent, reliable sources speaking on the subject in a way that isn’t mere mention.

Another Believer: Lady Gaga is also the primary subject of these titles as well.. “Who is Lady Gaga's fiancé?”, “Inside Lady Gaga's love story” —— these are articles about Lady Gaga. The subject of the nominated article doesn’t become notable by being in a relationship with someone who is notable. It may seem that way due to the fact that Lady Gaga is arguably one of the most notable figures of the 21st century thus far, but it isn’t.

As I said in my redirect edit, "One Instagram post from the artist with zero reliable coverage for the album itself (I'm not convinced coverage for the singles is enough here since the album is a footnote in those articles)." Even a few hours into the next day, there still has been no new coverage of this announcement. Even Billboard, which had an article about Max just a month ago which is included here, have not published anything about this album announcement. I do not see notability here at this time, still believe the article is premature, and that a redirect to the artist's page is still the best option until more coverage comes along. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 11:09, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It shouldn't be deleted, it's not consistent with practice for other articles. I guarantee you if Taylor Swift announced a new studio album and all we had was posts from her on social media and no news coverage, that there wouldn't be a deletion discussion. While she certainly is no Taylor Swift, Ava has BILLIONS of streams, hundreds of millions of YouTube views, won MTV & iHeart awards, topped charts in 20 countries, certified albums platinum, etc which qualify her as a major pop artist in several countries. An artist's official announcement (with reposts by the official record label) is enough info. There really are no MAJOR pop music magazines, websites, that the general public is aware of. Not everything is a news article, like many, many other articles on Wikipedia, this refers to a specific niche which has attracted notability within a certain group, in this case the European music industry. And you have to be aware that the announcement was made yesterday afternoon. 216.106.93.194 (talk) 15:33, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

also want to mention such info are usually hard to come by because short drama actors are not signed to any publicist or angecies..so they don't have staff to register them with movie databases, fans have to get that info from their livestreams, from social media, but fact is short vertical dramas are highly popular in china with hundreds of millions views/social media engagement and are now being seen by millions on youtube/tiktok internationally through many drama apps, they are more relevant than many mainstream actors from china.

  • Weak Keep admittedly this is my first time seeing this argument so I don't know if my interpretation of it was correct but one of the criteria for it seems to be " if the subjects role in the event isn't documented" and judging by the sourcing that doesn't seem to be the case multiple sources cover the controversy and some of them are years after it which seems to be lasting coverage. That said I'm new to this standard so if my analysis is wrong I'll change my vote Scooby453w (talk)
  • Delete as this article per nom meets the WP:BLP1E definition. All of the coverage is about the subject's appearance on the reality show Big Brother and racist comments she made. All sources with WP:SIGCOV are within a narrow time period in 2013. Sources that mention the subject since that time are only in passing. I searched and cannot find any additional sources for the subject other than the ones for this one event. Note page views are not a measure of Wikipedia notability. Nnev66 (talk) 13:41, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I disagree i believe the subject does not meet 2 of the requirements for Wikipedia:BLP1E first she is not "low profile" https://www.instagram.com/aaryn_williams?igsh=MXNkY3g0MThhMHAxYQ== as she has a big following on social media secondley I concede that the sources are all about the racism however I believe it qualifys as "a significant event where the subjects role is well documented" there are dozens of reliable sources covering the bb15 controversy which was a one of the most massive controversies in bb historh and it goes well into detail about her involvement in it Scooby453w (talk) 14:00, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Wikipedia "low profile" means the subject doesn't have independent secondary coverage in reliable sources over time. Instagram followers don't count as high profile for Wikipedia notability although in a more general sense one could make a case for it. I see your point around a "significant event" and different people will see any event's significance differently, which is why the consensus process is used here. Nonetheless, the main basis for my !vote was lack of significant coverage other than in the summer of 2013. I recently stumbled across WP:Why is BFDI not on Wikipedia? which discusses why a very popular YouTube series with billions of views that doesn't have a Wikipedia article - you may find this helpful for understanding policy. Nnev66 (talk) 15:15, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    "Significant event" usually means major historical events. The example at BLP1E is the Attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan. I don't think being a controversial reality TV star is quite at that level. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 06:21, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Subject had a years-long career over multiple international championships as the best hurdler from his country, as confirmed by multiple reliable sources (Olympedia, ATFS, Tilastopaja, World Athletics) that are fully independent of each other. There is always SIGCOV available for these athletes when the relevant Arabic-language archives are searched, but in many of these cases the archives are never searched and then the article is deleted despite notability being based on the existence of sources, not their presence in the article. A better system is needed for these nominations. --Habst (talk) 12:48, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    "Was nominated just after I improved it". Good way to imply some wrongdoing or following you around. You mean "the nom prodded it, I deprodded and added some databases, and they nominated it for AFD" which is the normal way these things progress, considering that databases don't count for sportsbio notability anyway. "The top Saudi athlete" means that after more than 150 athletes had arrived, we had a few Gibraltarian athletes, 6 Saudis in a row, and 2 further Gibraltarian ones, and then no one else? The level of the Saudis was so low that they could beat just 2 out of the 6 Gibraltarians (a city-state with at the time less than 20,000 inhabitants!), and no one else at all. And this is somehow an indication that he was a top athlete? Fram (talk) 14:10, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I think it is very likely that he is notable, but it is not going to be easy to find reviews of his concert performances or recordings (although Oaktree b has already found one on jstor). Some do come up on a Google Books search, eg Fanfare (14/1-2:263) and The Gramophone (52/613-618:536), but they have only snippet views, so can't be used as sources. Finding hard copies from that era would probably need access to a very large library. Apart from reviews, Discogs shows multiple albums released by the Musical Heritage Society and by a German label called Da Camera Magna. I realise that Discogs is not reliable, but it gives album names and label numbers which can be searched for elsewhere - and does suggest that he meets WP:MUSICBIO#5.

This is a messy stub that hijacks its interwiki. Korczak ran two notable orphanages (Nasz Dom, https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q11789892, and Dom Sierot, https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6431490). The article nominated here (Korczak's orhpanages) is incorrectly linked to Q6431490 (all other wikis in it are about Dom Sierot specifically); it also doesn't make obvious the concept of "Korczak's orhpanages", combined, has stand-alone notability (I see some passing mentions in my BEFORE, but no clear SIGCOV). The current article has just one (non-English) reference and is a stub; I suggest deleting it as it also seems to contain many errors. For example, it gives dates for its two orphanages, unnamed, as 1911-1942 and 1918-1940. The dedicated Wiki articles have different dates (1912-1944) and 1919-1946, reactivated in 1991). If our underreferneced stub cannot even get basic facts straight (such as names and dates), dubious notatability aside, WP:TNT is needed.

  • Keep: It is true that Fujitaka is not well known in the English-speaking world, but they is a well-known scholar of queer theory in Japan. While this is supported indirectly by English-language sources, Kawasaka and Würrer’s article cites their books Judith Butler and Feminism as “Trouble” as “important contributions” to queer theory in Japan. In addition, Fujitaka has been actively engaged in critiquing transphobia in Japan, which suggests that their public engagement beyond academia should also be taken into account. Although English-language information on this is limited, Yamada’s article may serve as a useful reference. I believe the article would be better improved by incorporating such information rather than deleted.--QJmisaki (talk) 17:03, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Kawasaka and Würrer’s article cites their books Judith Butler and Feminism as “Trouble” as “important contributions” to queer theory in Japan Well, if they were really "important contributions" worthy of a Wikipedia article, I think there would be more to say than a single vague mention. This is the entire quote you are referring to:

    The corpus of queer studies also grew after 2010 with important contributions to various fields, including, for example, queer theory and criticism by Nagashima Saeko (2013, 2019), Fujitaka Kazuki (2018, 2022)...

Following WP:NALBUM there aren't any sources showing that this meets the criteria for notability of a recording. It could be redirected to FBG Duck#Discography but I don't think it is even a popular enough search term to need a redirect. Moritoriko (talk) 02:37, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I do not see multiple independent reliable sources which indicate that WP:LISTN is met. The only non-database source which lists opening day starters for the team is this story posted on a rain date. It seems this list also fails WP:GNG. It must be shown why this deserves to be a standalone list, as opposed to part of the team's article. Just because individual parts of the list can be cited, it does not mean that the sum total of the parts are notable as a list. Further, I found no previous discussion that this should be be split from the team's article. Flibirigit (talk) 02:23, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Flib, thanks for the feedback once again. I see your point. If there aren’t multiple independent sources showing notability beyond basic stats, and no prior consensus to split this off, then a standalone list may not be justified. I’d support merging it back into the team article unless stronger sourcing is found. TBJ10RH (talk) 02:34, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

To reword what I previously wrote in the article's talk page, I believe that this article should be deleted per WP:NOTNEWS: it doesn't elaborate much on the subject (i.e. what exactly the plot was, who was involved in planning it, where was it planned to occur in, etc.), and since there doesn't seem to have been follow-up information about it (no WP:LASTING coverage), it looks to just be an example of WP:RECENTISM.

Alternatively, it could be merged into articles like Anas Khattab (career section), Western Syria clashes (December 2024-present), or Syrian transitional government (possible reforms section), but its vague enough that I don't know if it would be appropriate.

Currently, I believe that this is a WP:REDUNDANTFORK of Southern Syria clashes (April 2025–present) since information about the killings has been added into that article. Asclepias tuberosa (talk) 00:53, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the name is not agreed upon and widely sourced as in the 2025 massacres of Syrian Alawites, the reporting always puts it as a detail and not the main event (again as in the Alawites' case). While the events are devastating, I do not see them as more than a section in the Southern clashes article, and also we should refrain from solely using SOHR for these.
- RamiPat (talk) 02:25, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Why do you say the reporting puts it as a detail? Many of the citations already in the article talk about it as the main event. It's also causing ripple effects in Israel and many Israeli articles are talking about it as the main event. E.g. 1 and [-- 2A05:BB80:32:B913:5D54:1EA:B2D5:200E (talk) 02:44, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what makes Cooper more worthy of an article than other collegiate soccer coaches, especially since he has a non-notable playing career. The most notable thing about him (from what I understand) is his long tenure and winning a coach of the year award which may be enough to warrant an article, but I'm not sure so I've put it up. Raskuly (talk) 00:23, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Subject does not appear to be notable upon search. I've found two potential secondary sources (1 & 2) referenced in the current state of the article, but the first thing that struck out to me is that they do not seem to be WP:SIGCOV, so there is no real reason to presume that the subject is notable as of right now.

Per WP:BIO1E, this figure has only received coverage due to one event which he didn't have a significant role in, and likely wouldn't have been deemed notable enough to warrant a separate article (which is reflected in the article's rather small size and detail).
