Extended WP:OFFTOPIC back and forth
  • @RebeccaGreen Hm, OK, it was just a bit weird to see 7 keep !votes in a row. I think I am more deletionist than you are. With BLPs I am always extra careful because a bad BLP can be far more harmful than a bad article about a Pokemon. I checked the Wikipedia Library (9 results for their name between doublequotes) and I don't see any sources that can be used (a name in a list is not WP:INDEPTH). Do you have access to the source I mentioned on the talkpage? Polygnotus (talk) 23:08, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    7 Keep !votes at 20-40 minute intervals - during which I searched for sources. I don't just !vote without checking, and if I don't find much or anything in theway of sources,I !vote delete, redirect or merge. RebeccaGreen (talk) 23:15, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @RebeccaGreen You are at 71.2% keep and I am at 87.0% delete Probably because we use AfD for different purposes; I use it to get rid of the trash while you perhaps use it to find things worth saving. Both are valid. Polygnotus (talk) 23:19, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Polygnotus:, I don't think attempting to discredit someone's vote based on anything OTHER than the merit of their contention is appropriate. Their keep/delete ration or how fast they voted does not discount their !vote.--CNMall41 (talk) 01:14, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@CNMall41 Agreed, and I didn't. As I said, I just happened to notice it and it was remarkable enough to remark upon. In the future, please be more careful before writing something like that, because implying that someone did something they clearly did not is not appropriate, especially in the context of potential false allegations of bad intentions without evidence. Polygnotus (talk) 01:20, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I am very careful and I wrote exactly what I meant. While veiled, you asking if they based their vote on fake information was insinuating they lacked competence. You then proceeded to discuss their voting history instead of their contention. I do not agree with the !keep vote, but they are allowed to have it. You are free to address their contention, but saying things like "it's just weird" then sharing someone's AfD stats is about conduct, not content. If you have issue with my comment, please address at WP:ANI. --CNMall41 (talk) 01:30, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have to run to ANI every time someone makes a mistake. ANI is for urgent incidents or chronic, intractable behavioral problems. You just made a mistake. I can just point it out and move on. Polygnotus (talk) 01:31, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. In a 3-decade career, this person has done one national tour, one ensemble role on Broadway, and a few short-running local productions, mostly in smaller parts. Her film career is even less impressive (being nominated for one local design award for a foreign art film does not make someone notable as a designer). Even though she got some press over the decades in local newspapers, she is a pretty WP:MILL actor. -- Ssilvers (talk) 20:51, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, she also played named roles in Summer: The Donna Summer Musical on Broadway, as well as playing roles in several other musicals around Australia and in Shanghai, and in cabaret in New York and Miami. I don't think a major role in a two-year tour of Mamma Mia! (musical) in the US and Canada is run-of-the-mill - it is in fact criterion 4 of WP:MUSICBIO.

Insignificant clashes article which gives little to no information to the readers. WP:NOTNEWS. Can be merged to Western Syria clashes (December 2024–present). Ecrusized (talk) 16:38, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support since the article's small (the timeline only has 3 small sentences), but idk if it should merged into the Western Syria Clashes article because that's specifically about Latakia/Tartus and western Homs/Hama (though it could just be renamed to something like Assadist insurgency).
I was gonna propose making a Mohsen al-Haymed article, but he's only been reported on in 3 separate months - April 2024, January 2025, and March 2025, which might not be enough coverage for a separate article.

(If this article isn't deleted, it should be renamed to something like 2025 al-Sanamayn Clashes or al-Sanamayn Clashes (2024-2025)) Asclepias tuberosa (talk) 17:21, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Merging the info to Western Syria clashes (December 2024–present) wouldn't make sense, as Daraa is in southern Syria. David O. Johnson (talk) 22:49, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The scope of this article fits better within Western Syria clashes (December 2024-present), yet obviously these clashes did not take place in western Syria. Building off of this, there's significant discussion on the name of the article, and at the current moment it seems that the general consensus leans towards changing the title to a more inclusive name, but disagreement exists on what to change the name too. It might be a good idea to extend this AFD discussion until ongoing discussion on the other article is resolved. Castroonthemoon (talk) 20:03, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fairly unremarkable other than a few published papers on a largely niche topic (tornadoes/severe weather). By this stretch, every meteorologist (especially many professors in academia) who author papers should have Wikipedia articles, which isn't the case. United States Man (talk) 20:54, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete Hate to say it but I agree that they just don't meet the bar of notability. I think instead of making new articles on meteorologists we should, as a project, work on improving the quality of existing articles; see the dreadful state of Ted Fujita, for instance. Departure– (talk) 14:56, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'll also say that the USA Today source doesn't mean anything for notability in my eyes. Lyza was brought on as an expert to explain the individual study about the same topic covered at EF5 drought. This is, in my eyes, as routine as coverage gets - especially his qualifications being described by USA Today as simply lead author on the new study about the EF5 tornado drought. It would be different if the article was specifically about Lyza, or if Lyza was described as being top of his field or otherwise academically vital. Departure– (talk) 02:52, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep - enough sources to justify notability.
WFUM🔥🌪️ (talk) 20:14, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Several secondary reliable sources besides academic papers reference or interview/quote Anthony Lyza and his works, including the New York Times and many other articles: [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Clearly passes the bare minimum of WP:PROF and WP:BIO, especially since the US government even posted he is a tornado “expert”. WP:PROF says if a person passes any of the listed items, then they are notable. The first point of WP:PROF is “The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources.” That seems clear, given the tons of sources discussing Lyza and his work. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 21:01, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

GS gives 167 cites. Normally 1000+ cites is required for notability under WP:Prof#C1. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:01, 16 April 2025 (UTC).[reply]
@Xxanthippe: Oh! That is what you meant by not many GS citations. Most meteorologists use respective country-based academic publication societies, rather than GS to find sources. For example, in US is the American Meteorological Society (AMS). Just by looking at the AMS-website metrics alone for the 2025 paper that Mr. Lyza was lead author on ([14]) show 7281 full text views. AMS does not keep track directly of who cited the paper, only records of downloads and views. That paper has over 7,000 views just since January 2025 (it was released January 23, 2025). Hopefully that helps. AMS contains probably 80% of the meteorologically published papers that are often cited in textbooks or by other meteorologists. This is one of those fields of science where GS is actually not the most used/useful measurement tool. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 00:37, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using {{source assess table}}.
  • Per my analysis, the sources presented in this discussion do not contain significant coverage of the person in question, hence he does meet WP:GNG which states that A topic is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. WP:NACADEMIC states that an academic is notable if The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources. There is no evidence in independent reliable sources that their studies have had a "significant impact in their scholarly discipline." Additionally, he does not meet the rest of the criteria as set forth at WP:NACADEMIC. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 15:53, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Aviationwikiflight: I disagree entirely with your claim that "There is no evidence in independent reliable sources that their studies have had a "significant impact in their scholarly discipline." Numerous of the articles above are related to the EF5 drought study led by Mr. Lyza. In fact, Wikipedia has an entire section just about Mr. Lyza's study: EF5 drought#January 2025 study. Regarding the EF5 study led by Lyza, I can find [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. All of those sources are specifically in regards to the study produced by Lyza. Could you go into more detail and explain why ypu believe the EF5 study discussed by all of these RS do not provide such evidence? The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 16:20, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What changed after they published their study? What "significant impacts" were there after they published their study? It's nice and all that the sources covered the study, but they don't provide evidence that it had a "significant impact" in "their scholarly discipline". For example, if there is evidence that this study led to a reform of the Enhanced Fujita scale in regards to rating tornadoes, or maybe something changed within the field of tornadoes, meteorology... that would fulfil the first criterion. But as of yet, it's probably too early to tell and it seems that most of the coverage is on the study than the authors themselves. Aviationwikiflight (talk) 16:36, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'll add that the EF5 drought is just a small trend in the greater subject of tornado climatology, so one study analyzing this subject in-depth wouldn't equate to "significant impact" across meteorology. Not yet, anyway. Departure– (talk) 16:43, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Departure–, while it is relatively benign with general meteorology (the NWS is likely choosing to ignore it), the general public and public media have definitely picked up on it. But yes, the Lyza drought study isn't super significant in the field, mainly outlining the reasoning, which is already well-known (survey ignorance).EF5 (questions?) 16:46, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Under that logic, the shift focuses from academic notability to public interest and we run back into GNG arguments again. While the EF5 drought is notable and Lyza's study of it helps demonstrate that, it doesn't itself make Lyza himself notable. Departure– (talk) 16:48, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's 5 sentences, haha. Anyway, it looks like oregonnews.uoregon.edu (free!) is also missing those years of the East Oregonian but it might have other papers that newspapers.com doesn't have. Again, lacking sources is not a deletion criterion. And WP:BEFORE is a good guideline, especially section D.

This is one of several very tiny side-street connecting two notable roads in Hong Kong. I have searched for WP:SIGCOV in English and Chinese and have not been able to do more than verify that it exists. The Chinese version of this article doesn't contain any further sources to help. I think we could mention it Queen's Road, Hong Kong#Queen's Road East but from what I can find there isn't a lot to add except that it's one of multiple small alley ways connecting two major roads.

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Transportation and Hong Kong. WCQuidditch 02:48, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge. It is just a minor street. This source mentions that in 1917 Tsui In Lane was widened and renamed Anton Street. This source states that it is named after Charles Edward Anton, Director of Jardine, Matheson & Co. Other sources give it passing mentions. One approach would be to redirect it to Queen's Road East#Anton Street, then expand the entry in the list of intersections in that article as
    • (N) > junction with {{anchor|Anton Street}} '''Anton Street''', a short road leading north to [[Hennessy Road]]. Created in 1917 by widening Tsui In Lane.<ref...>... Named after [[Charles Edward Anton]], Director of Jardine, Matheson & Co.<ref....>
That way the gazetteer-type information would be preserved. The other minor streets along Queen's Road East could be treated the same way. Probably less effort to boldly merge them into Queen's Road East than to put them through AfD. Aymatth2 (talk) 18:07, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Merge seems a good idea, but I think it would look a little undue weighty in that big road article unless all of the intersections were extended beyond a line summary.♦ Dr. Blofeld 09:08, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. All the side roads should be done, including notable ones that retain their own article and ones that turn into redirects. I am not sure I have the energy to do it. Aymatth2 (talk) 13:27, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not a notable person. Yousiphh (talk) 22:04, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Since the following information refers to reliable, independent sources such as local media, as well as international media outlets such as the Voice of America, Radio Liberty, Germany's Frankfurter Rundschau, and reports from international foundations such as the Konrad Adenauer Foundation, this person fully and comprehensively meets the criteria for an encyclopedic person. As is also stated in Wikipedia's notability criteria:
“When using a search engine to help establish the notability of a topic, evaluate the quality, not the quantity, of the search results and linked webpages.”
Wikipedia's criteria for not being notable state that if a person is notable because of their role in one event, it is uncertain whether they are an encyclopedic figure or not:
“When an individual is significant for their role in a single event, it may be unclear whether an article should be written about the individual, the event or both. In considering whether to create separate articles, the degree of significance of the event itself and of the individual's role within it should both be considered. The general rule is to cover the event, not the person. However, if media coverage of both the event and the individual's role grow larger, separate articles may become justified.”
However, Shahriyar Majidzade has been active in many social and political fields since 2011 and continues his activities today. The following criteria confirm the notability of his journalistic work:
This guideline applies to authors, editors, journalists, filmmakers, photographers, artists, architects, and other creative professionals. Such a person is notable if:
The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews, or of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series)
Wikipedia's goal is to benefit readers by providing information on all branches of knowledge. An “encyclopedic person” is not a title. Treating it as a title can be considered an expression of a one-sided and biased position. Wikipedia's rules and principles clearly indicate that it is a "knowledge-sharing" platform, not a "title-granting" one. Being included in the encyclopedia means collecting information about that person's notable public and political activities in one place and making this information, along with citations, easily and comprehensively accessible to anyone who wants to access information. This is also in line with the principle of "Free content that anyone can use", which is one of Wikipedia's five pillars.
No detailed search was conducted, no correction was suggested, no justification was requested, and no specific criteria for deletion were specified in the request for deletion of this article. Wikipedia's criteria for a candidate for a request for deletion and speedy deletion are as follows:
If no criterion can be met for either a standalone article or inclusion in a more general article, and improvements have not worked or cannot be reasonably tried, then three deletion procedures can be considered.
Shahriyar Majidzade's social and political activities are as follows:
1amroff (talk) 12:09, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note: None of a single reason for a notability. Most references are hard to analyze. Not related and ambiguous citations. Yousiphh (talk) 09:58, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I see enough reliable sources for Majidzade to pass WP:GNG, in particular the coverage in Frankfurter Rundschau.

Subject doesn't seem to be notable enough to warrant its own article. I feel like the subject isn't notable, and even if it was, it would likely be a case of WP:BLP1E.

Article on a disc golf equipment manufacturer entirely reliant on primary or non-independent sources that doesn't meet WP:NORG or WP:GNG. While they do appear on the surface to be a fairly major supplier of equipment, a search did not reveal any additional sources that would lend notability, with all results limited to either press releases, the organization's corporate website, or listings in shopping sites. The single book referenced in the article only contains passing mentions of the company. nf utvol (talk) 14:38, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple citations failed verification. About all that seems to be passing verification are primary texts and biographies written by Thelema adherents. Article is something of a coatrack, more concerned with A∴A∴ and Great Work (Thelema) than with the actual topic of discussion. This article should be deleted with the notable material being merged, after verification of citations actually saying what they're citing, to those two articles.

  • Keep. Based on the sources, both ones included and not included here, it is notable for both WP:GNG and WP:NBOOK. The primary Crowley sources are an issue as is the infamous Eye in the Triangle & Grant, but the other sources are reliable and not from believers, and there are more than that. Crowley has simply had a lot written about him, and an individual text is a discrete enough topic that it can have a defined scope. The coattrack issue is true but not the point of WP:TNT because it canjust be trimmed. I would say keep and just trim the stuff that is less about the text/puffery.

Keep and rename -- this is an oversimplification of BLP1E. BLP1E requires three things for deletion -- first, the subject is known for only one thing, second, they are low-profile, third, the event is not significant or their role was not substantial. Her role was very clearly substantial. We can debate whether the event is significant, but given it got so much news coverage, I would say it is worth keeping. This article should be moved to a title like "Microsoft 50th anniversary disruptions", not deleted, to comply with BLP1E. Mrfoogles (talk) 21:12, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep – Trackloaded meets the General Notability Guideline (GNG) through significant coverage in independent, reliable sources:
    • Mentioned in Pulse Nigeria, referencing its lyrics/media section
    • Cited by Legit.ng in entertainment industry commentary
    • Awarded "Best Entertainment News Media Platform" by MEA Markets in 2024
    • Recognized as "Best Entertainment & Media Platform – West Africa" at Innovation in Business Awards 2024
    • Reached 4.4 million listeners on Audiomack, indicating real-world cultural and public impact

The article is neutrally written and sourced to meet the notability criteria under both GNG and NCORP for media-related topics.

I understand the concerns raised. I am currently improving the article by adding more independent, reliable sources that provide neutral coverage of the subject. Additionally, I am revising the content to ensure a strictly factual and non-promotional tone, in line with Wikipedia's neutrality policy. Given that the project has received coverage in independent media outlets (such as [Shurooq]), I believe the subject meets Wikipedia’s notability guidelines.

More than a year ago, Melcous correctly added our template for excessive reliance on non-WP:INDEPENDENT sources to this article on a club run by UFO enthusiast Garry Nolan that I guess tries to lobby for funding to research the space aliens they believe are running around the country or something; I'm not sure, I don't quite follow their About page [34].

In any case ,the underlying issue has gone unresolved. As an editor celebrated for his good faith commitment to preserving articles of this type, I conducted a truncated WP:BEFORE consisting exclusively of a Google News search (because, given the subject, it's obviously not going to appear in any journal or book).

This search found pages upon pages of references to this outfit which might incline the casual observer to presume it passes WP:N. However, on close inspection, most of these are to The Debrief, which is unambiguously non-RS. Its editor-in-chief is Micah Hanks who also reports on Sasquatch, [35] wrote the foreword to a "non-fiction" book on monsters that purportedly live in South Carolina [36], wrote a book about something called "ghost rockets" [37], and used to host a podcast about ghosts and ESP. The other contributors of this site come from a similar pedigree.

Additional sources are WP:ROUTINE (e.g. an event listing at the San Francisco Standard [38]) or are purely incidental mentions, such as organization officers being quoted by title in stories.

  • Delete and very firmly so. The sourcing does not support this as an actual rivalry. There is not a single source in the article which currently details the rivalry - it's all about the countries history with each other or the successes of their national teams. The linked articles in the AfD are of no help. The Sportsgazette article talks about violence in Greece and Turkey, not about the rivalry between these clubs. The New York Times just outlines some fan violence in a Fenerbahce match in Greece, not about a national team rivalry; the Guardian just outlines the booing through a moment of silence, not an actual sporting rivalry. And the two listicles - one is a fan vote, the other is user-generated and is one of the weirdest ranking articles I've ever seen. There is absolutely no sourcing showing that there is a rivalry between these two national teams. SportingFlyer T·C 09:33, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews - in the Selected publications section, the references are to reviews of his books. It is certainly true that the article is frequently subject to less well sourced additions from IP editors - who probably have a conflict of interest - which are reverted from time to time. I won't revert them during this AfD (and some of the additions may merit a place in Selected publications) but will once it's finished. If the article is kept, I suggest that it be placed under extended confirmed protection to help prevent these kind of additions from happening.

@Vestrian24Bio: The WP:OFFCRIC guideline you linked lists the Pentangular Trophy under tournaments that have "first-class cricket status that the Cricket WikiProject deems (players to be) notable enough to presume coverage". He played in this tournament during the 1990s.[43]. In addition, Hussain played for Surrey in Div 1 of the 2007 County Championship, undisputedly the highest level. The basis of the top 20 claim is maths ... Pakistan "A" being the second eleven ... so top 22 by definition (I rounded down). Jevansen (talk) 12:41, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Although these do not automatically merit deletion, the article contains huge chunks of unsourced content and info not supported by the cited reference, which I will get to the details later. More importantly, the major problem with this article is that the concept is a WP:SYNTH. As far as I can see, none of the sources mention or delineate this specific "region". "Northern Syrian regions" is not a phrase precedented in reliable sources that specifically refers to these areas of Turkey. "Northern Syria", even within the context of Ottoman history, refers to a far broader region that contains much of modern Syria or Ottoman Syria, including Aleppo. I initially thought at best, this article could be moved to "Turkish Syria", which is mostly found in over a century-old sources but still also refers to Aleppo: [44] The idea I get from this article is that it describes the areas that would be under the Mandate for Syria and the Lebanon according to the Treaty of Sèvres, which did not come into full effect. If this were the case, that would be a content fork, too. Now, returning to WP:VERIFY issues, the list of failed verifications is long, but here are a couple of examples: Nowhere does a traveler mention in 1910 here Mardin Province is (or would be) ...% Arab in 1927 or in any year. Nowhere in Morality Tales: Law and Gender in the Ottoman Court of Aintab does Leslie P. Peirce mention the 1927, or say 1550, composition of the city of Aintab. Cited references include WP:SELFPUBLISHED maps such as this which ironically also fails verification. As of this revision, about 15-18 paragraphs do not include a single reference, not that the references necessarily support the content. Overall, assuming this weren't a content fork, it would have to be moved to a verifiable name that at least was utilized by 2-3 sources. Then, a complete cleanup would have to be done, and each bit would have to be verified with the cited reference. The insurmountable amount of issues crosses the region of WP:TNT, which is only assuming there is a way to solve the issues of WP:N, WP:REDUNDANTFORK, and WP:SYNTH.

    It has been longer than 7 months since this article's creation. Per WP:DRAFTNO and previous RFC, articles older than 3 months should not be draftified without clear consensus. It is highly unlikely this entry would be improved after draftification, because the issue is not just the lack of references, but the concept itself is a synthesis of numerous sources and is not something that is covered in-depth and described clearly by any of the sources here or elsewhere on the Internet. You are welcome to experiment through your sandbox, in this case, for your prospective well-sourced additions with reliable sources to other articles.

  • weak keep by default, because this is a bit of a non-debate. The fact that one editor doesn't see the point of an article isn't really grounds for deletion, and the fact that someone else finds it possibly useful isn't strong grounds to keep. My feeling is that the list is apparently correct and sourced, and it's quite possible that some school kid somewhere is making polyhedron models and excited by their angles, so for the sake of them, I'm fine about the table existing in their favourite encyclopedia. Elemimele (talk) 09:53, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @Elemimele If that's the case, I could barely remodel the list anytime soon. What class of polyhedra should be included in the article? And why Platonic solids, star solids, and uniform solids are included only? Catalan solids has its own list alongside with dihedral angle. Archimedean solids? Johnson solids? Dedhert.Jr (talk) 13:59, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Dedhert.Jr valid point: some of the main articles already tabulate dihedral angles, but others don't. The Catalan solids article does it super-clearly. I think I'd have to downgrade my weak keep to a very weak keep on the grounds that the main articles often do have the data. This is one of those deletions where I don't feel strongly enough to argue, particularly as you have much greater knowledge of the field than I. I'm a bit inclusionist when it comes to information, and don't mind lists that duplicate-and-collate numbers also available in other lists/articles, but others may feel differently.

Okay, could be off the mark here, but I am not seeing any in-depth coverage regarding this concept. Seems to be a bit of WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. Onel5969 TT me 15:18, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: As discussed previously in places like Talk:Late Shang, there are different ways used by academic sources to periodize the Shang dynasty, which is itself a helpful and interesting topic. For example, many academic sources divide the main Shang period into 2 phases (Early Shang and Late Shang), whereas various other sources divide it into 3 phases (Early Shang, Middle Shang, and Late Shang), etc. Also, the article Late Shang is currently about “Late Shang” within a certain periodization method (starting from Wu Ding), but there are also different ways of understanding the term (e.g. starting from Pan Geng). The periodization of the Shang dynasty is often associated with Shang archaeology, which is itself an important topic. In any case, this general article (Periodization of the Shang dynasty) is used to explain such things as done in academic sources, although of course the article can be further expanded for even more detailed coverage. —Wengier (talk) 17:29, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Instead of proposing deletion out of unfamiliarity with the topic, editors should engage in constructive editing. Improving the article through collaboration and research aligns far more closely with Wikipedia’s core values than erasing valuable content.
    This proposed deletion is unwarranted and reflects a lack of familiarity with the subject matter. The article concerns a notable and long-standing media brand that has been reviewed and approved by both UK and US Wikipedia moderators. The deletion rationale appears overzealous and poorly researched, especially given that similar media outlets (e.g., Popjustice, The Line of Best Fit, Far Out) maintain pages with fewer documented milestones.
