- Redirect - Fails WP:GNG and doesn't meet WP:NACTOR as there is only one notable role with some reviews. Redirect to Mamma Mia! (musical)#productions. --CNMall41 (talk) 20:22, 17 April 2025 (UTC)
- Keep There is a lot of coverage in digitised newspapers about her from her time in Mamma Mia from 2010-2012, certainly enough to meet WP:GNG. She probably also meets WP:NACTOR / WP:CREATIVE with her other performances and her nomination for the Africa Movie Academy Awards for design work on From a Whisper. I'll add sources to the article (and check out the existing ones). No, please let's not Speedy Delete articles like this - there is clear indication of notability in the text of this article; the refs could be improved, but that's the case with lots of WP articles, and is not a reason to delete. RebeccaGreen (talk) 12:48, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- @RebeccaGreen Are you basing your !vote on the fake information in the article? I looked at your contributions and the last 7 edits are keep votes for AfDs? It looks like you believe that the article is fine but the refs need to be improved, but in reality the refs are fake and fail verification. She clearly does not meet WP:GNG or WP:CREATIVE. You could quibble about WP:NACTOR, but only because those standards are so much lower which is unfair and should be fixed. In any case, per WP:CONLEVEL such an WP:SNG cannot overrule WP:GNG. Polygnotus (talk) 19:39, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- No, I'm basing my Keep !vote on what I can see in digitised newspapers (which are also available to WP editors through the Wikipedia Library). If you have looked at my contributions, you will have seen that I put a kot of time and effort into improving articles at AfD, and as I said, I will add sources to this article.

- 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)
- 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)
- 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.

- 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)

- Delete, list is based on an arbitrary, non-defining and trivial characteristic. Speaking to the OP's concern about a lack of citations, place name origins are often historically disputed, obscure, based on misunderstandings or poor Anglicization (e.g., Canadian, Texas), or even arbitrary (e.g., numerous American communities renamed by the U.S. Postal Service to avoid duplication). And what if the community is named after a person, geographical feature, or other community with a name similar to an Irish place? All of these factors may cast doubt on whether some entries are legitimately "Irish". Carguychris (talk) 20:52, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

- Keep There do appear to be sources for Irish place names in various countries, for example Irish Place Names in Australia [1] and "Australia's Irish Place Names" in The Australasian Journal of Irish Studies [; Dictionary of Southern African Place Names [2] which identifies those that are named after places in Ireland; The Master Book of Irish Placenames has an appendix of Irish place names in America [3]; Irish Place-names in America was published in 1963 [4]; "Gaelic Surnominal Place-Names in Ireland and Their Reflection in Argentina" in Studi irlandesi : a Journal of Irish Studies (2021); The Origin and Meaning of Place Names in Canada [5] notes places in Canada named for places in Ireland - etc. RebeccaGreen (talk) 14:12, 22 April 2025 (UTC)
- I think the list of interesting and Rebecca has decent sources that could be added, but it needs major clean-up if kept. It's pretty crappy right now: most of the place articles don't actually verify that they're named after the Irish places; Longford, Victoria, Shannon, Alabama and Moorefield, Ohio are just a few found in a quick scan that are not and should be removed.

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.

- 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)
- 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)
- Weak keep - enough sources to justify notability.

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)

- ?. The subject has a very small number of citations in GS. What is the reason for this? Xxanthippe (talk) 05:28, 16 April 2025 (UTC).
- @Xxanthippe: Small? This indicates he has 13 publications from 2017-2024, +1 not listed published in January 2025. So, he has at least 14 different publications that would be on GS. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 12:09, 16 April 2025 (UTC)
WeakKeep - The USA Today reference is the make-or-break for me here, as it does indeed show him being mentioned in major news outlets. — EF5 12:57, 16 April 2025 (UTC)
- GS gives 167 cites. Normally 1000+ cites is required for notability under WP:Prof#C1. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:01, 16 April 2025 (UTC).
- @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)

- 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 ifThe 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)
- @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)- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
- 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)

- Comment A better merge source might be the media section of Pendleton, Oregon and/or the "Defunct" section of List of radio stations in Oregon. A list of defunct stations is likely a random collection of information. Note that having a single source is not in itself a deletion criterion. I've added a bit but am not claiming the article now passes WP:GNG. This isn't an official guideline but WP:NMEDIA might be instructive. Note to all at AfD: Could we pretty please link to the guidelines we are referencing, such as "GNG", in the nomination? Thanks! Valfontis (talk) 17:58, 23 April 2025 (UTC)
- Redirect to state list The main problem is that PoppysButterflies is putting pages into mainspace too early across the board. Unfortunately, while Newspapers.com just added the Pendleton paper, it is right now missing from 1947 to 1964. These should be list redirects until more sourcing can be built, but the half-baked two-sentence stub will not cut it. Sammi Brie (she/her · t · c) 02:02, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
- 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. I'm not going to go to a whole lot more effort to flesh this article out but I will note that one of the problems with media sources are they often aren't covered in other media sources.

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.

- 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)
- 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)

- Merge/redirect to Queen's Road East#Anton Street as suggested by Aymatth2 per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion. A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow editors to selectively merge any content that can be reliably sourced to the target article. A redirect with the history preserved under the redirect will allow the redirect to be undone if significant coverage in reliable sources is found in the future. Cunard (talk) 07:28, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- Comment - to elaborate slightly on my rationale -WP:Articles_for_deletion/St._Francis_Street and WP:Articles for deletion/Wood Road are similar road noms which ended in delete. If you look up Anton St on g-maps you will see it is an almost comically tiny side street, and the only real facts available are that it 1) is one of many alleys in Hong Kong connecting two notable roads and 2) was named after someone notable. My view is that the existing mentions in articlespace are sufficient, and per WP:NOTDIRECTORY I weakly disagree that there is value to preserving the page history via a merge. Zzz plant (talk) 18:01, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- Those AfDs were not well-attended and were from six years ago so are not good precedent to argue against a merge. Under Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Alternatives to deletion, when there is a good redirect or merge target as Aymatth2 has identified, that is preferable to deletion. Another merge target could be Charles Edward Anton, the namesake of the street, whose article already mentions the street. Cunard (talk) 07:31, 27 April 2025 (UTC)

- 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.

I did not receive an email and was not requested to vote either way. I do read German easily so I looked into it and found some articles in Frankfurter Rundschau, here and here. There is also coverage by Konrad Adenauer Stiftung, for example here. Therefore I conclude that there is enough substantive, independent coverage to sustain the article.

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.

- Comment: The Austin-American Statesman and The Monitor are local coverage which don't count towards WP:NGO. AJC D1+D6 are the same sources, but combined are not significant/very short and original research would be needed to write an article. The Business World New Delhi article reads like a press release - unless further sources are presented, the subject does not meet WP:NGO and WP:BLP1E still stands. WormEater13 (talk • contribs) 13:22, 25 April 2025 (UTC)
- Why doesn't Austin coverage count? Even if it didn't, there are other references that are not based in Austin like the Atlanta Journal Constitution and Business World New Dehli (linked above) which aren't yet in the article but count towards notability. Also, the Miracle Foundation is an international organization, not local to Austin. In addition, BLP1E doesn't apply here because Miracle Foundation is an organization, not a person.

- Delete Yes, Shankargb is correct that BLP1E is not applicable to organizations (BLP1E = biography of living person, one event). Regardless, the article was created and often edited by a single purpose account, and the sources are inadequate e.g. founder's hometown newspaper Austin-American Statesman is local coverage which is insufficient per WP:NGO. I don't know if Business World New Delhi is WP:RS for an NGO, especially not if it read like a press release. The organization was founded in 2000, yet there has been only passing mention of it in 25 years. I also agree with what WormEater13 said about the article needing an entire rewrite due to both inadequate sourcing AND the fact that it is in bad shape (sentence fragments, bad grammar, etc.) but that is an aside; it isn't sufficiently notable for inclusion.--FeralOink (talk) 13:40, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

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.

- 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.

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.

Taking those into account, and some of the existing sources, I'd say that there's a reasonable argument for notability now.

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.

- Where is the sourcing showing this? GiantSnowman 04:22, 17 April 2025 (UTC)
- Keep Like all Grecian/Turkish relations (and as they share a border), this is definitely a notable rivalry with two nations with very expressive soccer histories that go well beyond the pitch, and it's likely there are few matches between them solely because of said history and organizers not wanting violence to occur. Definitely not a deletion candidate. There was also content removal before the nomination, which is never a good look. Nathannah • 📮 23:12, 16 April 2025 (UTC)
- Comment leaning Delete - based on the comments, seems more like a "nation issue" than a "football rivalry". Many countries have national disputes, where it results in tensions in sporting matches, but that doesn't mean it's a "sporting rivalry" it's other factors. This probably would be better as a subsection called "Greece and Turkey in Sports" in the Greece–Turkey relations article, rather than a separate article. All the sources either relate to 1) either political issues between the two nations or 2) individual articles about one country with zero mention of the other (ie. Greece winning Euro 2004). Nothing about the two countries in sports versus each other. RedPatch (talk) 10:50, 17 April 2025 (UTC)
- Merge per RedPatch. There's obviously a very strong national rivalry that undoubtedly spills over into football matches between the nations, but the football rivalry itself doesn't have the sourcing needed to support its own article. Wburrow (talk) 14:18, 17 April 2025 (UTC)
- Keep Needs an overhaul, but there is a strong rivalry between the two countries. This rivalry is more evident at club football, [39], [40], you get moments of problems in the national team, but not so strong. [41], [42], but between Greece and Turkey in sports. Yes there is a rivalry. I don't think the nomination understands the rivalry between these two countries. Govvy (talk) 10:43, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
- Comment – There is also a very strong rivalry between the countries in basketball. An alternative might be to move to a Greece–Turkey sports rivalry article where both sports could be covered. Svartner (talk) 14:30, 19 April 2025 (UTC)
- Keep per Govvy and Top Ten Lists the rivalry at 8 and Bleacherreport list it top 50 rivalries.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 17:11, 19 April 2025 (UTC)
- Comment – The Top Tens "list" is an open vote, so there is no objectivity to it whatsoever and it is, at the very least, adjacent to user-generated content. As noted in the Bleacher Report piece,
Another writer here at Bleacher Report recently ranked his top 50 rivalries is World Football, and I must say, I was left somewhat unsatisfied. So I've compiled my own list of the 50 best football rivalries.
Therefore, it is one person's opinion in reply to another person's opinion. Again, completely subjective. — Jkudlick ⚓ (talk) 00:58, 20 April 2025 (UTC) - Bleacher Report is unreliable; see WP:RSN community discussions 1, 2, 3, 4. Left guide (talk) 07:15, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
- Comment – The Top Tens "list" is an open vote, so there is no objectivity to it whatsoever and it is, at the very least, adjacent to user-generated content. As noted in the Bleacher Report piece,
- Delete There is actually no football rivalry. Matches against Turkey are treated like any other match. Only nationalist circles find rivalry. The Greek Wikipedia does not even have a page on "rivalry", which I consider indicative of the minimal importance of the issue for the two countries. Lord Mountbutter (talk) 17:57, 19 April 2025 (UTC)
- Comment leaning Delete as per majority of comments above, there have been few international meetings and little to no evidence provided of an enduring rivalry specific to international football. As has also been suggested above, there is a wider situation of rivalry between the nations in other sports, particularly in basketball but also volleyball and water polo as well as club football, and the fact that several Greek clubs, most significantly PAOK and AEK (the 'K' standing for Konstantinoupόleos i.e Istanbul), have their origins in Greek refugee communities expelled from Turkey – there is maybe also something the other way, can't remember – all of which could feasibly contribute to a Greece–Turkey sports rivalry article, but again this would need to be evidenced with specific sourcing. Crowsus (talk) 08:22, 20 April 2025 (UTC)
- Lean Delete I agree with others on the use of a Greece–Turkey sports rivalry article in the future, even potentially merging/redirecting there, but for football, the sources above provide very, very little to significantly cover the topic, and it is mostly based on the clubs not the national teams.

- 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)

Not an accepted genus, apparently, per IRMNG (link). This is a Junior subjective synonym of the subgenus Heodes, within the genus Lycaena.

The person has created ... 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
- 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.

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.

- 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)
- @Elemimele If that's the case, I could barely remodel the list anytime soon. What class of polyhedra should be included in the article?

Dedhert.Jr (talk) 13:59, 30 April 2025 (UTC)
- 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.

- 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)
- Keep – this is not OR or SYNTH. It is an important topic of scholarly discussion and a set of real archeological terms. See, for instance, this footnote and the many comments in WP:Featured article candidates/Guandimiao/archive1 around the use of "Anyang", "Erligang culture", "Late Shang" etc., like right under here.

All but one of the sources listed by Eddie891 are profiles which are insufficient to establish WP:GNG.--FeralOink (talk) 13:19, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Can't find anything about this railway station in Pakistan. I did find an article about a railway station that happens to be called "Raina", but it is located in West Bengal (India), not Pakistan.
And I'm not entirely sure if that article is even reliable.

Alright -- the subject of this article fails WP:GNG, and notability for companies because of lack of WP:SIGCOV, and WP:SUSTAINED in WP:RS. There are lots of sources, but they are either WP:ROUTINE, very old announcements of the opening, or not independent. This article has serious NPOV issues to go along with that -- seems like advertising and promotion. This article doesn't belong on Wikipedia. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 00:46, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

This is an article about a mountain lake in Norway -- fails notability guidelines, by virtue of being a random lake in Norway. There are 300,000 lakes in Norway. Besides that, most of the article fails WP:NOTPROMO, and WP:NOTGUIDE; it talks about the amenities of the lake, like hikes, grills, and a nearby campsite. Serious NPOV issues, doesn't belong on Wikipedia. Needless to say no WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 00:40, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

- Comment: it's not a "mountain lake" at all, it's located on the city outskirts and used as a hiking spot/campgrounds. "Needless to say" doesn't seem to hold water (!), why would that be needless to say? Where did you do your WP:BEFORE that is not Google? Geschichte (talk) 07:53, 30 April 2025 (UTC)
- Needless to say was poor semantics, I apologize. I did my WP:BEFORE on JSTOR, Gbooks, GScholar, and norwegian google. I said it was a "mountain lake" because the article classifies it as a "tarn," which is a mountain lake. There some things, like "woah guys this lake exists," but imo it still fails under WP:NOTGUIDE-- I could be wrong, and if so, please let me know w/sources etc. This article is also an orphaned article.

This guy doesn't meet the notability requirements. Article is an orphan. He plays for a division four team in Sweden -- an amateur league -- Wikipedia doesn't cover amateur football per guidelines. Finally, one of the sources seems to be a blog, and the other two aren't reliable sources. Not WP:SUSTAINED, fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:RS, and has serious NPOV issues.

- 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. Instead of proposing deletion, improvements should be encouraged. Editors unfamiliar with the digital media and entertainment news niche should refrain from making sweeping judgments without due diligence. SmGLis (talk) 09:17, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Lots of problems: first, subject fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:SUSTAINED, and WP:RS. One of the sources is "Nerdist," an unreliable source. Even if it was reliable, it's a piece about a kickstarter. The other source is a defunct self published site, and the last source is a niche magazine. It's also a human interest story. On to the most important part; the creator of the page seems to be affiliated with the subject, with the username matching the title and a COI message on the talk page.

This article does not meet the general notability guideline, and does not meet the notability guidelines for companies. The claim to notability surrounds its involvement with human rights abuses, ending in deaths, in Indonesia. This breaks policy because just because the company was the subject of a (probably not) notable event, does not make it notable. No inherited notability. Next, This company does not have WP:SIGCOV that is WP:SUSTAINED, and the sources don't seem to be WP:RS, but I haven't done a deep dive. No other coverage besides this stuff, where it isn't the main story. This company isn't notable. More, the sources are also from 2011, pretty out of date.
