Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Women

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Women. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Women|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Women. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
Further information
For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to People.

After defusing a couple WP:REFBOMBs, the notability of this young footballer didn't seem as clear. After a search, the most I found from third-party sources was this routine contract extension announcement and trivial mentions like 1. There is also a bit here, although it consists of quotes from the club's training center director. JTtheOG (talk) 19:34, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Summoning Govvy and BeanieFan11. Barr Theo (talk) 23:54, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Barr Theo. I see you are new to AfDs, and I'm sure this ping was done in good faith. Please note that you need to be very careful about pinging editors to a discussion. If it appears this is done to influence one side or another, it would be considered vote stacking. The active AfD participants will usually find their way to discussions they are interested in. If you need specific expertise, it is a good idea to explain why you are summoning that editor. E.g. because they speak a language used in the sources.

This is an article about a supercentenarian, the oldest living French person on earth. This might be controversial, but I think this article violates WP:OLDAGE; just because something or someone is old does not make them notable. Looking at this article, there are no claims to notability besides the fact that she is really old. Yes, there is coverage in WP:RS, but it is not sustained coverage, and it barely clears WP:SIGCOV. What do we think? I don't think that people should have wikipedia articles purely because they happen to be very old. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 14:30, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment WP:OLDAGE says that if there are reliable sources covering the topic then it might merit an article perhaps a source analysis is in order (i would do it but im not very confident about the accurary i would have in determing the sources) if the sources arent good then i will vote delete but i cant just vote delete based on it isnt notable because i think it isnt Scooby453w (talk)

  • Weak Keep per the statement "the sources are good and reliable but I don't think it's notable" and the guideline (and i may be wrong) says "being old isn't inherently notable unless there are reliable sources that have SIGCOV" so I feel like barring a source analysis that discredits the sources I have to vote to keep though I might change my mind if someone has a more convincing argumentScooby453w (talk)
Sure, but the subject barely clears WP:SIGCOV and does not meet WP:SUSTAINED, as there is not sustained coverage; stores from a few years ago when she became the oldest person in France. The sources listed in the article are French genealogy/gerontology reviews and a French newspaper, Actu, which seems to be a French tabloid.AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 19:46, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
thats not entirely true https://actu.fr/pays-de-la-loire/les-sables-d-olonne_85194/une-chasse-aux-oeufs-avec-marie-rose-105-ans_9393580.html https://www.ouest-france.fr/pays-de-la-loire/les-sables-dolonne-85100/les-sables-d-olonne-la-doyenne-de-la-ville-marie-rose-tessier-souffle-ses-109-bougies-6361771 https://www.ouest-france.fr/pays-de-la-loire/laval-53000/la-doyenne-des-pays-de-la-loire-a-110-ans-et-est-vendeenne-7132965 the oldest source dates back 10 years granted im not an expert in french sources so i dont know how reliable they are but it shows she's had coverage for atleast 10 years Scooby453w (talk) 19:47, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for letting me know; for French sources I know that Le Monde is the newspaper of record and AFP is the wire service. Actu.fr doesn't look super reliable, wonder if any French wikipedians will pop in AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 21:53, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I sure hope so then we could find out how reliable these are Scooby453w (talk) 21:54, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
So it looks like actu.fr may be a reliable source went on French Google and it passes NewsGuard reliability standards. (Don't know much about how reliable Newsguard is.) Not sure about Ouest. Even still, I think this article would still violate WP:ROUTINE. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 23:16, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I guess that could be true for most of the sources but i dont think anyone planned for her to become the oldest living french person im still on the fence with whether or not to keep Scooby453w (talk) 02:38, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm interpreting WP:ROUTINE as like the small updates at the end of news broadcasts like it says in the policy. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 01:18, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Update: apparently Newsguard lists MailOnline as a reliable source, casting doubt upon the actu rating. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 17:31, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
good to know although I admit I'm confused as to wether this means it's reliable or not Scooby453w (talk) 18:27, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
MailOnline was listed as a garbage source by Wikipedia in 2019; the fact that newguard thinks that it is a reliable source is a red flag imao AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 21:26, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • keep - "Just because it's old, that doesn't mean it's notable" - but she's not just any old person, she's the oldest French woman & the fourth oldest person in the world.Blackballnz (talk) 09:38, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    That doesn't make her notable. You can't be notable simply for being old; and even if we consider her notable enough, she doesn't pass WP:STANDALONE; why should she have her own page? There's nothing notable besides old age. If we consider the oldest person in France notable for simply being the oldest person in France, then we go down a rabbit hole of "well maybe there should be an article for the oldest people in every country? Every state and province? AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 17:35, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I think You are misreading the old age essay it says being old doesnt make you AUTOMATICALLY notable unless there are reliable sources whicu youve alreayd admitted you think this page has i agree that being old doesnt make you automatically notable but i cant vote to delete when you admit you think the page has reliable sources in your ratoniale Scooby453w (talk) 17:47, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    It's not just WP:RS, and the reliability of the sources is questionable at the moment. Second, it can't be WP:MILL or WP:ROUTINE, which in my opinion it is, and it has to be WP:SUSTAINED in WP:RS, which I think it isn't. Finally, this article doesn't meet WP:STANDALONE requirements, as there isn't really an extra or insightful info that readers are learning that couldn't be learned in a minibio or sm on French supercentenarians, as states by the editor below. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 21:30, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Theres alot of guesswork and opinions in that argument though "in my opinion" "i think it isn't" i respect your opinion but i disagree with it also it doesn't matter what sites the source think is reliable as long as they don't use it for reference in the subject Scooby453w (talk) 22:19, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Typical longevity fanfluff article: fails WP:NOPAGE, WP:WHYN. Based largely on WP:PRIMARY sources such as GRG/Longeviquest. Content is basically "Born, married, had children, widowed, resided in a few places". Such limited coverage is sometimes included as a minibio in e.g. List of French supercentenarians. A stand-alone article is more likely to be justified if/when she becomes the world's oldest person in 2-3 years. 10:15, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

Cannot find anything about this woman other than the expected nude pictures and tabloid "journalism" detailing incredibly minor events. Does not meet WP:BIO. Previously changed to a redirect for the exact same reason, and nothing has changed since to make her more notable. Nomination for deletion since I simply do not think she's even notable enough for the redirect. CoconutOctopus talk 14:43, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep -- there is some decent coverage per @Oaktree b, but it only seems to be about a picture of her at a holocaust memorial, and a random scandal. Searching myself I can find many stories, but only about relatively minor details of her life, because she's a celebrity. She does seem to meet the general notability guideline of having coverage in multiple reliable sources, even if most of it is relatively pointless coverage of random details of her life. And she doesn't fall under "notable for only one event" because while 2 of the stories above not in tabloids are about the holocaust memorial incident, other articles are not about that. Mrfoogles (talk) 20:51, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Basically, yes, she doesn't really need a WP article any more than she needs the random newspaper articles on tiny details of her life. But if Wikipedia is a repository of all human knowledge, some of it is going to be kind of pointless knowledge, I guess. Mrfoogles (talk) 20:52, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is a WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE following a message on the biographies of living persons noticeboard. Looking through the sources, I just don't see the high quality we'd want for a BLP, with many sited to single news pieces. For a BLP with strong claims, I'd want to be able to resource from multiple news pieces, with no possibility of needing to rely heavily on a small number as this article does.

 Comment: This has been to BLPN three times:
  1. Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard/Archive298#Jeanette_Wilson (February 7, 2020)—raised by article's subject; brief discussion, including generally refuting a concern about sourcing
  2. Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard/Archive299#Jeanette_Wilson (February 24, 2020)—raised by article's subject; specific analysis of individual sources, finding many to be RS, including several in-depth, and some claim of notability, but that some of the article needed rewriting to correspond more closely to what the sources specifically support
  3. Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard#Jeanette_Wilson (April 24, 2025)—raised by article's subject; the request that triggered this AFD

Subject does not appear to be majorly notable beyond inclusion in the musical Operation Mincemeat and the associated search. Majority of coverage of subject is coverage of the musical. Coverage of search for her identity is already covered in musical's article DeputyBeagle (talk) 09:34, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment She is significantly talked about in Chapter 7 of Ben Macintyre's 2010 book Operation Mincemeat (full text) and there is a book coming out about her contributions in a few months [book page]. In addition, she has non-musical (or not-exclusively-musical) coverage about her war contributions here, here, and here. I think there is room for improvement in this article to better highlight the actual contributions to the war effort rather than just the musical-related research, but her notability itself follows wikipedia's general notability guidelines WP:GNG (two books with significant coverage of her life, multiple articles of the same). Engrigg22 (talk) 14:50, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The upcoming book appears to really be about the search for her (i.e. musical research) rather than about her specifically. Her real-life contributions are able to be covered under the page for Operation Mincemeat, and the research around her is already covered (but if necessary could be expanded upon) in the page for Operation Mincemeat (musical)
It appears to me to be a case of WP:1E without a large enough contribution to justify an entire standalone article. DeputyBeagle (talk) 08:14, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Even if coverage of her also discusses the musical, the current sourcing and article is pretty good. Apparently she wrote the love letters. Sure, it's not critical we have an article on the woman who wrote the love letters, but it's interesting, well-sourced, and a pretty good article. Additionally per @Engrigg22 there is, in fact, significant coverage of her contributions outside of discussion of the musical.
Besides, read the bottom of the article -- an entire book focused on her specifically is set to be published in June (within a month from now). Is it worth deleting this just to recreate it in one month, when it is already a good and well-sourced article? This is not a case of WP:1E because there is a lot of coverage of her outside of just "she did a thing in this one specific event". Mrfoogles (talk) 21:05, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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

Not a single piece of WP:SIGCOV in this BLP (a possible WP:VANITY BLP, I'm speculating [but don't know], based on the licensing of the Sears glamor shot in the infobox). A standard WP:BEFORE finds nothing either. WP:POLOUTCOMES does not presume notability for the minor post of special assistant.

These sources provide significant coverage that is both independent and reliable. She clearly qualifies for a standalone article under Wikipedia notability guidelines. 64.98.74.238 (talk) 13:55, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
When we say significant, independent coverage in reputable sources we are not looking for interviews in or expert quotes given to reliable sources as these aren't coverage of the person. Publishing books (in and of its self) is not enough to pass WP:NAUTHOR. The FT award is more interesting but your link doesn't work, and I can't find anything about it on the web. Much of the rest is covered by the nom already. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 14:13, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I also have to ask if the above is AI generated (thus explaining the hallucinated FT link, broken incorrect formating and making points already discussed in nom)? GPTZero gives 100% chance of AI generated, but I guess I'll give you the chance to explain whether that's the case. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 14:17, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hey there lovely person. Don't think that's AI generated. Mostly because AI either gives me no links or correct but irrelevant links. Broken links are probably the result of a typo. Furthermore, the incorrect broken formatting if anything points to a fallible human rather than a machine.
Perhaps the reason why they're making points already discussed in nom is because the persons interested in this article's deletion give no credence to easily discernible and verifiable facts?
Btw - Leadership Lab did win Business Book of the year award: https://www.thebookseller.com/news/kogan-page-scoops-business-book-year-award-981931 CodenamePingu123 (talk) 16:58, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Re the formatting it seems to be Reddit's formatting ([19]; even more so before I reformatted some of it) which could either be AI generated by somebody used to generating for reddit, a person writing whose used to reedit formatting or copied from a reddit comment. This is why I referenced GPTZero on the original comment, but as it isn't necessarily fool-proof I thought I would ask for confirmation from the person who posted it.
Re the award, I had misunderstood this as referring to the Financial Times Business Book of the Year Award which, as a very notable award, would have significantly contributed to her notability per WP:ANYBIO. Instead it's the much less notable Business Book Awards "Business Book of the Year award", which is much less likely to lend to notability unfortunately.

It's pretty obvious someone's operating a sockpuppet account here, I have no idea what their problem is with the late Mr Malmgren, Pippa or Christopher Mellon for that matter - they hit him yesterday as well as Malmgren - I'm sure they're sticking to the strict letter of the law but these deletion calls really are bullshit.

this is obviously targeted and clearly done in service of some idiot sceptic group's addenda I would recommend avoid casting WP:ASPERSIONS and WP:ASSUMEGOODFAITH (with zero evidence beyond you disliking that editors are holding these articles to actual standards).

Pippa Malmgren is often given credit for coining the term Shrinkflation

Business Book of the Year award

Journal article where she is significantly mentioned and referenced.

    • Mathonniere, Julien (13 June 2023). "Guerre économique et multilatéralisme : un conflit majeur se dessine-t-il?". Revue Défense Nationale (in French). 861 (6): 145–153. doi:10.3917/rdna.861.0145.

And quite frankly, when I see snide comments being made about the subject of a BLP (Sears glamor shot in the infobox), it diminishes the credibility of the nomination, in my view, because it's certainly not described as such on the file information at commons. Isaidnoway (talk) 19:55, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I mean the headshot is the first thing I noticed about the article, as an image that good is either self promo (which is fine by me if your releasing it under a free licence) or copyvio. It seems the former as the upload here is predates the upload by the subject to Flickr and was uploaded by user whose only other upload was logo of DPRM, the company she founded. With all that said, the account in question only ever made very minor edits to Malmgren's article. There's also the accounts: DRPMGroup, Dr Pippa Malmgren and Pippa Malmgren that have also made small edits. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 21:03, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
These strike me as mostly incidental mentions that don't pass our WP:SIGCOV standard. Moreover, the word choice of an AfD is not a policy-based reason for Keep. Chetsford (talk) 01:11, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
In my last paragraph, I was just pointing out your word choice was an unnecessary and snide comment. My rationale for Keep was not based on your poor word choice, which is quite clear. Isaidnoway (talk) 06:24, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I definitely think the American Banker article counts as SIGCOV, I'm not so convinced by the others. The Mondaq Business Briefing article, for instance, to me is a interview that struggles to offer independent coverage. Eddie891 Talk Work 08:20, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Isaidnoway's cited sigcov. As noted by others, much of the language of the deletion is problematic. Timing is worth mentioning: We all understand what it's like to fall down a wiki rabbit hole and try to improve multiple related articles. But the timing (which I truly believe to be an artifact for innocently of falling down a rabbit hole) does give the odious impression of retaliation for the 'sins of the father'. I don't believe that to be the case at all, but it does bear repeating that we'd never ever delete someone's bio because of something her father said. Feoffer (talk) 01:02, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - More than sufficient coverage in realiable sources, per Isaidnoway. And as an entirely separate matter, I would echo the concerns raised by others about this problematic nomination. I am myself an FRSA and I certainly didn't self-nominate. I don't think that in general, being an FRSA is sufficient for notability in Wikipedia but the implication that it's somehow questionable is unwarranted.--Jimbo Wales (talk) 11:17, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

With all due respect: I honestly don't think that you should participate in votes at all, Mr. Wales. Your public actions have a significant influence on how people decide here due to your popularity (your influence, specifically your comment here, is already part of discussions outside of Wikipedia), unintentionally causing a conflict of interest. Very hungry Yeti (talk) 21:21, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep Upon further searching, I found another article with sigcov, in addition to the American Banker profile cited by Isaidnoway: Boulton, Layla (27 September 2017). "Silicon Valley is not the only route to success". Financial Times. Subtitled "Women in technology Two founders with contrasting motives blaze a trail." One of the two women profiled is Malmgren. Those two good sources, combined with the sheer amount of quotes of her as an economic expert suggest to me that she meets WP:NSCHOLAR#C7 through her popular influence if not scholarly impact, and quite possibly GNG as well, though I don't think it's as clear cut as other !voters are suggesting. For instance, FRSA has long been considered questionable as any indicator of notability at Afd. Eddie891 Talk Work 11:34, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The issue I have with American Banker is it's a trade organ. As a generally accepted matter, while we do routinely accept trade media as RS, I can't recall a BLP ever hinging on business or trade press for N. Indeed, profiles in outlets like American Business Journals, AdAge, Pulp & Paper, etc. are generally classified as WP:ROUTINE in AFD discussions [24] for purposes of establishing N. Moreover, like most trade organs, American Banker routinely publishes advertorial and sponsored content [25] and -- without having access to the actual article on American Banker (as opposed to a Gale text archive) -- we have no idea if this is that. (I do, however, appreciate that this is a charged topic and want to be sensitive of individual proclivities related to this subject and hope this isn't taken as an indictment of anyone's fidelity here, but only as an open discussion point.) Chetsford (talk) 15:04, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah I can see what you're saying, but it is a bylined 1300 word profile. Also, the ad you linked really is quite clearly distinguishable from a news article, and as best I can tell isn't even indexed in the online American Banker database I am looking at (while the profile of Malmgren is). Most of the discussions I see in recent (<10 years) AfDs consider interviews/publications by the subject/routine coverage of companies. IMO this is quite different, but ymmv.

At EBSCO, it is listed as "Adviser on Banking Gives Bush a Trader's-Eye View.

At ProQuest 249815310, it is listed as a "Feature" in the section "Washington", so I think it's safe to say it isn't sponsored or advertising content.

While it is lovely that you seemingly copied and pasted the raw output of LLM chatbot response, most of these links don't exist and the only one that does (The penguin book) has nothing to do with the subject at hand. Even if these links did lead somewhere (as has been said already) WP:GNG/WP:NBIO requires more than being quoted in articles on other topics or else being at events/on panels. It requires in depth coverage in independent reliable sources, about the subject. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 19:23, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment on canvassing. In addition to Cakelot1's note, it appears even some established Wikipedians have been directly contacted off-WP with exhortations related to this AfD (no direct links per WP:OUTING). I would suggest that, in the absence of the clearest and most unambiguous Delete/Keep determinations, the closer consider a No Consensus close on grounds of discussion spoilation. That will allow the discussion to be reopened fresh in a month or two. Chetsford (talk) 21:18, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Looking at the sources Isaidnoway posted, I'm somewhat troubled by the American Banker source. Any WP:SIGCOV must also be WP:INDEPENDENT of the subject to count towards notability, and much of the American Banker article is filled with what Malmgren has to say about herself, rather than an independent reporter writing that about her, and this gives me some pause. In other AfDs I have participated in (both biographies and companies) I have seen similar articles being dismissed as not being independent of the subject. The Mondaq article is an interview, clearly enough; the RUSI coverage looks fine, though I'll note my general scepticism towards sources by think tanks. The three shrinkflation sources are mentions without sigcov (and the NPR article is partly an interview of Malmgren), and so is the Bookseller article (and I don't think that a "Book of the Year" award would satisfy ANYBIO#1 anyways). The Financial Times source given by Eddie891 seems to be the best source at hand. This leaves arguments for NSCHOLAR#7 on which I am ambivalent, and overall I don't find myself entirely convinced that Malmgren passes WP:BASIC. On the other hand, I would be fine if the article is written on the basis of the RUSI, American Banker and Financial Times sources (the material would pass WP:V in such an article). A rather weak delete but I wouldn't object to the article being kept either.

    For avoidance of doubt, I note that I have not been contacted by any of the people involved in the canvassing efforts mentioned above. JavaHurricane 06:42, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    WP:INDEPENDENT has nothing to do with how often a subject is quoted in the source. Profiles of this type often include extensive direct quotes to flavor the text with the subject's words. There's absolutely no reason to doubt it was authored by an "an independent reporter". Feoffer (talk) 12:24, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: This topic is becoming increasingly relevant in the zeitgeist which makes it's nomination for deletion suspicious. Why would we remove a page that people are increasingly trying to find? The fact that the removal is controversial alone should be enough to keep it. We are not supposed to gatekeep or editorialize our content. This removal smells editorial. https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=pippa%20malmgren&hl=en N1ywb (talk) 15:57, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
We base our decisions on whether or not to have independent articles not on if something is in the zeitgeist (see WP:ITSPOPULAR), nor because editors think it important (WP:ITSIMPORTANT); nor because lots of people are searching on google for it (see WP:GOOGLEHITS). Nor do we void discussions because some editors think it's controversial (see WP:THEYDONTLIKEIT). We base the decisions on our existing Policies and guidelines, and in this case that seems to be a failing of WP:NOTABILITY. If you want to know why WP:N exists see WP:WHYN. I will also remind you that AFDs are not votes and keep/delete comments are weighted based on their basis in policy. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 17:20, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Well pointed. Not an editor issue, but a policy matter. There is clearly something wrong with the policies if it is allowing for such an absurd to be justified. Here is an opportunity for the editors to be the change and suggest the policies are reviewed. And question yourselves: How low are you willing to go because a policy tells you to ? 2405:6E00:2455:483D:6C47:75FF:FE79:ABAF (talk) 03:15, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Here is an opportunity for the editors to be the change and suggest the policies are reviewed. Incorrect. An AfD discussion is not the forum for policy review. Notability has guidelines anyway, but there are policies as well. JFHJr () 03:18, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Agree that this is not the place for this discussion, so this will be my last reply. Not sure if you did not understand the point or don't want to... I will make it clearer: My point is that editors are justifying being obtuse and negating facts because of policies. Policies that won't change themselves. They are the ones that should see that and push, in the right forums, for the policies to be fixed. 2405:6E00:2455:483D:6C47:75FF:FE79:ABAF (talk) 03:27, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There are good reasons for WP:GNG, most experienced editors know that and are likely to have no appetite to significantly change it. This is especially the case for [[[WP:BLPs]].

"Probably should do something about user Chetsford and their sockpuppets that keep proposing these deletions." Suppafly -- for your benefit, and those of the canvassed legions, I'll grant myself the indulgence of one off-topic response to the accusations being made against me off-WP (some of which were mentioned on last night's edition of Coast to Coast AM [27]) and migrating here:
(a) I am not a sockpuppet,
(b) I do not edit Wikipedia 19 hours per day, 7 days per week [note I average 15 daily edits; using surveyed averages, that equates to about 45 minutes of daily editing],
(c) I am not being paid by the Skeptical Inquirer nor am I in any contact with Susan Gerlich,
(d) I am not a CIA asset, a government-controlled AI, and I was not involved in the JFK assassination; nor am I an agent of a breakaway civilization trying to suppress antigravitic technology,
(e) I do not work for Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, or Klaus Schwab; I am not a member of the Bilderberg Group nor am I a 33rd degree Mason
I am happy to address any other questions on my Talk page in order to keep this discussion on topic (the retention or deletion of this article). You can also request a sock/meatpuppet investigation at WP:SPI, an investigation as to whether or not I'm a Pleiadian at WP:AN, or an investigation as to if I'm a CIA plant at WP:DRR.

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.

Subject fails WP:NPOL and current sources do not help to qualify for WP:GNG. There are no sufficient independent sources that provide substantial coverage of the subject to establish the minimum GNG. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 11:32, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Article could use some further expansion, but Vancouver is a global city of the type whose city councillors are presumed to pass WP:NPOL #2, and the article already contains some content about her role in the downfall of the Non-Partisan Association — as I often point out in AFDs on municipal politicians, we need to see content about the person's political impact (specific things they did, specific effects their work had on the development of the city, etc.) rather than just "she exists and serves on the budget committee", and content already present and sourced in the article already fulfills exactly that higher test. Bearcat (talk) 13:27, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @Bearcat As asked at Orr's AfD, NPOL does not cover municipal politicians or councillors whatsoever, was there a discussion somewhere that said councillors from "global cities" are presumptively notable under the same NPOL that doesn't give provisions for people of that status? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 14:36, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    NPOL #2 ("local political figures") absolutely covers municipal councillors: mayors and city councillors are literally who that criterion was written for. It's also a longstanding consensus, upheld by hundreds or even thousands of past AFD discussions on councillors in cities like New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Ottawa, London, Paris or Berlin, that city councillors in global cities are much more likely to cross the notability bar than city councillors in non-global cities — the article does still have to be more than just "So-and-so is a city councillor who exists, the end", but city councillors in global cities are very routinely kept so long as the article contains some useful and properly sourced context above and beyond "person who exists", as this one already does.

That, right on its face, is exactly the kind of content that NPOL #2 is looking for. In what sense is there a functional distinction to be drawn between "coverage about her" and "coverage about things she did in office", in order to claim that coverage about her role in the downfall of the Non-Partisan Association fails to contribute NPOL-building notability?

Fails WP:NBIO and WP:SIGCOV. Most cited sources are not WP:INDEPENDENT, a fact overlooked in the 2019 deletion discussion. Sources establishing notability consist of two articles from the Deseret News (Stokes sat on their editorial board, and one of the articles is announcing that fact), two human-interest stories from the Salt Lake Tribune (at the time they were written, party to a Joint Operating Agreement with the Deseret News [[40]] and operating out of the same building), and two interview transcripts on Mormon-themed blogs (possibly independent, but hardly WP:RS or WP:SIGCOV). Jbt89 (talk) 06:16, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree to your bias assessment of independent sources. While it is true the Deseret News should not be considered independent for this subject, the Salt Lake Tribune is a separate legal entity and there are hundreds of articles on Wikipedia that maintain its independent status. "Mormon-themed blogs" are also not an exclusionary source just as "baseball-themed blogs" would not be exclusionary to create interviews independent of Major League Baseball. I agree completely in efforts to require independent sourcing, but for a pioneering woman of color this article meets the requirements--and has already been reviewed as such in the past.

Back at AfD after the first resulted in speedy deletion. Back in the mainspace and while I attempted to clean up (even moved to draft to allow for cleanup but that was objected to) but there is nothing useful to create the page. For NACTOR, a person is not inherently notable for two lead roles - they still need the significant coverage showing such. Here, the references are unreliable, some based on the publication and the rest based on being non-bylined churnalism. CNMall41 (talk) 00:41, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Actors and filmmakers and Pakistan. CNMall41 (talk) 00:43, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: 2 lead (ergo significant) roles in notable series, Zulm and Mann Mast Malang, thus meeting WP:NACTOR that states that actors "may be considered notable if" they had significant roles in notable productions. To pass WP:NACTOR, coverage is only needed to verify the importance of the roles in the notable productions. No notability guideline warrants "inherent notability" on WP: all of them, including WP:GNG mention a "presumption" of notability of some sort (presumed/may/likely, etc). See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ali Raza (actor), an AfD that I link here not for its outcome nor potential disagreements between given users but because it contains an extensive discussion about WP:NACTOR and WP:SNGs in general. In a nutshell: stating that subjects meeting any of the specific notability guidelines about notability "must first" (or "should also") meet GNG is an erroneous (albeit common) interpretation of what the guideline says. Meeting given specific requirements for notability can be considered sufficient, per consensus; that is why such guidelines exist; when the requirements of the applicable guideline are met, it can be agreed upon that the article may be retained. By the same token, those who don’t agree are obviously free to express their views but meeting specific requirements can be considered a good and sufficient reason to retain any page; in other words, in such cases, subjects don't need to also meet the general requirements. Even meeting them does not guarantee "inherently" an article, anyway.-Mushy Yank. 01:18, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Few things. The first is that although the AfD you linked here shows your contention that NACTOR is met with two main/lead roles, it also shows a divide amongst editors on how to interpret that. Note it closed as No Consensus with the closing admin noting that editors were divided in the assessment of NACTOR. However, the AfDs here and here where you asserted the same resulted in delete. While this does not establish consensus, it does show that editors do not share the same assessment. Note, I am not saying she must meet WP:GNG. I am saying she meets neither. Second, NACTOR is not met with two roles with "coverage is only needed to verify the importance of the roles in the notable productions." In fact, it says "meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included." Here, the sources are junk. They are non-bylined coverage similar to WP:NEWSORGINDIA, churnalism, websites like Celebrity Networth, or are otherwise unreliable. If someone is worthy of notice, you would think they would have more than this type of simple coverage. It would be more significant where they would meet WP:NBASIC. Finally, one of the shows you claim is a notable series, you actually redirected based on notability. You only reverted in March of 2025 to help support your contention in the first AfD. Both shows I think are marginally notable at best as they also contain the same type of unreliable sourcing, although I will not nominate either during this AfD so as not to give the appearance of WP:DISRUPTIVE. --CNMall41 (talk) 05:37, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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

I am the creator of this page. I have felt kinda guilty about this for a while because I think I did a terrible job at it. My reasons for deletion are as follows:

1. Most of the article is based on an web source from the Headbanging Moose, which I realise now is unverifiable/not an interview. In one recent search I found it was citing text from a Tumblr interview (alas that too was inaccessible). Either way; bad source, which makes up most of the article. Also, Hergirlrock and trishdoan.com are primary sources

2. Most of the reliable source coverage about Trish concerns her departure from the band in 2008, or her death in 2017. I feel both of these can be explained just as well in the Kittie band article or in other related articles (i.e. the documentary stuff)

3. When I made this page, I thought I was doing so primarily because I though Trish was an underrated bassist on Funeral for Yesterday and I wanted them to be known for other stuff outside of their struggles. In hindsight and in other words, I was trying to WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS. I am kinda more accepting of the fact that shit things do happen to people. I recognise the feelings I had at the time (aka when this was made; 2023) reflected my life situation which I didn't think I had a way out of at the time, and as such my edits were kinda projections of that mentality. I'm in a better place now (in part thanks to Funeral for Yesterday, actually) but I still feel as though I failed. If I made things worse, I am sorry.

Unelected candidate. Fails WP:NPOL. All sources currently pertain to her candidacy in the 2023 Aston by-election where she was unsuccessful. Sources relating to her local government role do not provide significant coverage. GMH Melbourne (talk) 02:53, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Jpatokal (talk) 10:09, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Per Wikipedia:POLOUTCOMES, mayors of cities of at least regional prominence have usually survived AFD, although the article should say more than just "Jane Doe is the mayor of Cityville". While she is not Lord Mayor, she is a citywide elected official as Deputy Lord Mayor and ran on a ticket with the incumbent Lord Mayor. The City of Melbourne (population 149,000) is a regionally significant city. That fact, combined with the coverage shown by Jpatoka, tells me that the subject LIKELY warrants an individual article depending on the specifics of the position (i.e. powers/responsibilities). I would need to know these before voting. If this were purely a city councilor who ran in a by-election, I would be a delete vote, so I'm really staking this on citywide officeholder with a real job in regionally significant city who has the coverage Jpatoka has identified.--Mpen320 (talk) 23:14, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    For context, since Australian municipal structures are a bit odd: the lowercase-c city of Melbourne is Australia's largest, with over 5.2 million people scattered across 31 "local government areas" (LGA). The uppercase-c City of Melbourne is the LGA covering the entire city center, and while the population living within the LGA is relatively low, its Lord Mayor & council wields outsize influence because they directly control zoning etc for all the largest businesses, restaurants, nightlife, transport hubs etc etc, and they're also the closest thing there is to a leader of the entire city.
    As a rough US analogy, it would be like if New York City didn't have a single mayor, but instead had a "Mayor of Manhattan", and there were 30 other boroughs, not 4. Jpatokal (talk) 00:35, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @Mpen320: As far as I am aware from doing a bit of research the deputy Lord Mayor has the same power/responsibilities as a regular council expect they sub in for the Lord Mayor when they are away. For a bit of context, these are some of the sources available for the Deputy Lord Mayor of Sydney [43]. GMH Melbourne (talk) 00:59, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I believe this to be closer to an edge case than the AfD nominator. I appreciate User:GMH Melbourne's follow-up descriptor and relation to NYC. I will note that Mark Levine and the other four Borough presidents do have articles, BUT the least populous borough (Staten Island) has 495,747 residents. Prior to reading the reply, I did find the statutory powers given to Deputy Mayors in Local Government Act of 2020 via the Australasian Legal Information Institute. The Deputy Mayor role seems like an at-large city council member a role whose holder is neither presumed or not presumed to warrant an individual article. Once election coverage is removed from citations and what is offered in the AfD (which is about the elections for which we have the articles 2024 Melbourne City Council election and 2023 Aston by-election respectively, not the candidates themselves), there is one local profile in which the subject provides a substantial amount of content, failing the independent of the subject criterion in GNG. I see us in WP:TOOSOON territory for Campbell. I do not think this nomination, if a deletion is found to be appropriate, this AfD should be used in the event of a recreation down the line if/when facts on the ground change.--Mpen320 (talk) 18:57, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Your line of argumentation is absurd. Campbell is a notable career politician who has been successfully elected twice, contested a nationally notable by-election once, and was covered by national media even before all this. You can't just wave a magic wand and say she's not notable if you ignore all the sources about four separate elections across five years, aka her political career. Jpatokal (talk) 23:38, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Elections by and large (particularly national government by-elections) are notable events. Participants in notable events (i.e. the candidates) are not necessarily notable for participating nor does coverage of their actions in such events make them notable except for unique circumstances (Christine O'Donnell or Pro-Life (born Marvin Thomas Richardson) in the U.S.) I know Australian equivalents were discussed in the discussion on Wikipedia Talk that you started. I explicitly do not discount an individual article in the future even without WP:NPOL in my determination as your assertion above, that an elected official's political career is getting elected is false. Presumably, if this is the unique circumstance where a local elected official warrants a stand alone article, they would have done things in office other than participate in elections that would be part of their career.
    I understand the nominator did not realize the subject was elected to office, but it is not an office that passes WP:NPOL so you need independent coverage. Bullet point #2 is largely quoting the person and thus is not independent of the subject. How would I know that if I ignored it? I have been in multiple AfDs in which you point to the quantity of sources. Quantity is part of WP:GNG, but it is not its totality nor do other considerations such as WP:NOPAGE fly out the window.
    You note in your !keepvote Melbourne is the largest city in Australia. She is not the Deputy Mayor of ALL of what can be called Melbourne, just the City of Melbourne as a local government area. Wikipedia's list of local government areas by population notes the City of Melbourne as the 33rd most populous LGA in Australia. The City of Casey is the largest LGA in Victoria. ​The size of the jurisdiction is not getting you over the top here.--Mpen320 (talk) 04:35, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    As I've already explained above, the Australian cities do not work like American cities. The City of Melbourne is far more important than any of the random suburban sprawl LGAs like Casey, and is responsible for things like defining the vision and goals of the entire metropolitan area. This pattern is consistent across Australian cities: Sydney's suburban City of Blacktown (#4 in Australia) is nearly twice the population of the City of Sydney, but Blacktown's mayor is not notable enough to warrant an article, while the office of the Deputy Lord Mayor of Sydney has its own article. Jpatokal (talk) 08:15, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Believe it or not, I actually do consider what you write in discussions. Did you miss that in addition to asking, I also looked up the statutory powers of the position? I think my past contributions demonstrate not only a strong interest in the subject matter of government and politics, but also the means to research and understand topics. Finally, I have no doubt that the City of Melbourne is more important than Casey. I was replying to the argument made of size, not an argument of prominence. It is Easter weekend so I will be taking a break and letting this AfD play out.--Mpen320 (talk) 14:02, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - elected deputy mayor of a regionally important city probably passes NPOL. The rule that unelected candidates don't get articles only applies when they lose election. She won.

Bearian (talk) 04:31, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Incorrect: it's an elected position and she has been elected to it twice. And as explained above, the City of Melbourne is not a "city of 150,000", but the core of a metropolis of 5 million people. Jpatokal (talk) 03:38, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Campbell hasn't been elected deputy mayor twice. She has only been deputy mayor since 2024. And even then she wasn't elected directly, she only got the position by riding on the coat tails of incumbent mayor Nick Reece. In the 2020 election she ran as a candidate as an ordinary councillor and received only 58 votes - she only became a councillor because of the votes received by the ticket she was a part of.
    If Campbell is the deputy mayor of "a metropolis of 5 million people", then how come only 137,000 people were eligible to vote in the election you claim she was elected at? Is Melbourne stuck in the 19th century where only a tiny fraction of its adult population are eligible to vote? Claiming that Campbell is deputy mayor of Melbourne is like saying that Alastair King is the mayor of London. Obi2canibe (talk) 11:38, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    As explained above, the City of Melbourne is not a "city of 150,000", but the core of a metropolis of 5 million people. A closer equivalence would be the Greater London Authority, although no such body exists in Melbourne. Per The Age, "The lord mayor presides over the Melbourne City Council and is the city's first citizen. Because of the central city's powerful symbolic role, the lord mayor can expect more public attention than the mayor of any surrounding metropolitan or Victorian provincial city. The lord mayor speaks for Melbourne." And remember, notability is not judged on legal powers, but how well they are known. Jpatokal (talk) 21:24, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Campbell is not the deputy mayor of Greater Melbourne, she is the mayor of the City of Melbourne. These are not the same thing, and therefore the original comment about the population being around 150,000 is not incorrect. Greater Melbourne comprises of 31 Local Government Areas, The City of Melbourne being just one of them. So being the so-called "core" of 5 million people makes no sense. Viatori (talk) 02:25, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Since Greater Melbourne is not a legal entity, the Lord Mayor of the City of Melbourne serves as the city's de facto leader. Jpatokal (talk) 10:39, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't think the Lord Mayor of Member (nor the Deputy Lord Mayor) has ever exercised power that affected anything outside of the City of Melbourne LGA's boundaries. Nor have they represented anywhere outside of the City of Melbourne LGA's boundaries at functions, events, etc. GMH Melbourne (talk) 10:45, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The population of the City of Melbourne was 149,615 at the 2021 census. Please stop saying it has population of 5 million. Obi2canibe (talk) 11:24, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep: I don't think the article should be deleted, and I think the subject has sufficient notability, but it seems the consensus is that Australian deputy mayor pages should be deleted and even I don't agree with the other keep arguments here.

Because they are mostly not authored books I think this only makes a weak case for WP:AUTHOR but there are enough of them to make the case. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:01, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Source assessment table
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
No The article seems to be written by Boothe herself. There is also no byline, so I highly doubt this is independent. Yes ~ No
No This is written by a "contributor", so it is obviously a paid piece. The tone isn't neutral, either. Yes No
No byline, so I doubt this is independent. Yes ? Unknown
No No byline and extremely promotional tone indicate this is not independent. No
~ This is an interview, so all the parts where she is talking about herself are not independent. This doesn't leave much in the way of sigcov. No No
No No Unreliable (user-generated) per this RSN discussion: [59] Yes No
No Nothing more than a row in a table. No
No An interview, so not independent. The biography at the start, completely out of proportion to the vanishingly short interview, seems extremely similar to those in the paid pieces, so I'm fairly certain it came straight from the subject too. No Only the first two paragraphs are potentially independent; I don't think that's enough to call sigcov. No
No No No This is yet another promotional piece consisting entirely of quotes from the subject or a "review" that's obviously promotional. No
No Obviously AI-generated. Just look at "has not won any awards yet". No
~ Another interview. No I count three sentences of information in the biography that is not meaningless filler. Not sigcov. No
No This is an opinion piece written by Boothe, so not independent. It also No It has a grand total of one sentence actually about Boothe. No

While her works are somewhat notable, her herself isn't exactly, failing WP:GNG. It's a stub, I get it, but there's so little information on here and almost nothing on Google. We don't even know if she's alive or not. KrystalInfernus (talk) 17:22, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: She doesn't have any works of her own. She is an actress who has appeared in some notable stage works, but the article does not say what roles she played. -- Ssilvers (talk) 02:35, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Well... if there are reviews of her performances in these works then that would count towards notability per the first criteria. Of course that would require sourcing - I'll see what I can find. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 13:31, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm finding coverage of her stage performances. Her movie/film roles are pretty much minor and background characters. Offhand, given some of the reviews of her stage performances thus far, she might prefer the article get deleted rather than have a summary of what they've been saying. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 13:45, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm leaning towards a keep here so far - she's been in some notable performances and has gotten mention to varying degrees. She doesn't seem to have met with any overwhelming success, but there's enough so far that she could probably pass criteria 1 of NACTOR. I will try to keep digging, though. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 13:56, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What WP:RSs have you found? -- Ssilvers (talk) 15:15, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've found multiple reviews of plays she's been in. The ones I'm using to count towards notability are the ones that specifically mention her within the body of the review. For example, Reuters, The Spectator, and The Guardian all call her out by name in reviews for Present Laughter and Hall received additional attention from The Guardian for We That Are Left. Her performances were also reviewed by the British Theater Guide, which looks usable - I've seen where it's been used as a RS in academic/scholarly texts published by De Gruyter, Palgrave Macmillan, Taylor & Francis, and so on. There was also a review by the Oldham Evening Chronicle, but that's not as high profile as the others. There was a paywalled review for The Doctor's Dilemma by The Stage. I can't tell if she was mentioned in that or not, so I'm not entirely counting that one.
Reviews for an actor's work can count towards notability for them and have traditionally qualified under criteria 1 of NACTOR. So on that note, I'm arguing for a keep. She's not some overwhelmingly notable stage actor, but she's also not some random who acts in the chorus or only has a single line role.

  • Delete I don't think that the "reviews" mentioned can get us to GNG. She is mentioned in sources that review the plays, but, for example, the Reuters piece only says this about her performance: Hall is a bit too gushy as Daphne. The guardian has a few more words: Paul Woodson and Amy Hall give lovely unaffected performances as the youngsters trembling on the brink of an uncertain future. but that's all it says about her acting. The British Theatre Guide has one sentence about her character's place in the plot, but says nothing about her performance: The opening scenes show a star struck ingénue, played by Amy Hall, the morning after falling head over heels in love and into bed with our hero. A description of the character is not a review of the actor if nothing is said about the acting. I don't understand these brief mentions to be "significant coverage". Lamona (talk) 02:51, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep I would say she just meets WP:NACTOR, with significant roles in Present Laughter at the National Theatre, London; Blithe Spirit at the Oldham Coliseum Theatre; and in The Shape of Things and The Turn of the Screw at Neath (which I have added to the article). I have not been able to find more roles - part of the problem may be that when she might be expected to have roles and reviews, in the 10 years from 2008/09, there are quite a few publications which were not published digitally and have not yet been digitised (The Stage, for instance, on the British Newspaper Archive, goes up to 2007). I have found an actress called Amy Hall appearing in York in the 2020s (eg [60]) - but is that the same Amy Hall? RebeccaGreen (talk) 12:16, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There is some WP:NOTABILITY in the name itself. Upon researching further, the subject is indeed notable with several acting works throughout her career. There might be a need for copyedit and rewriting the article as the intro itself is just a few words in a line.
For actors, we don't have specific described sources but more like sources that give their names
There shall be reliable sources that further strengthens reliability and notability but every outlet is reliable unless COI or considered unreliable
The Guardian, The BBC, The Hollywood reporter, Variety and more are some of the reliable sources already added here
Thus, improving the article is a sure need here including one parameter other than name Infobox but subject itself is notable enough. HilssaMansen19 (talk) 18:37, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Lamona. There are reliable sources here, but not significant coverage. The ones that discuss her for more than one sentence are Wales Online (2 sentences), Reuters (2 sentences, if you include one about her character), and a BBC interview (which isn't independent of the subject). hinnk (talk) 09:07, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria:

If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

Anybody who checks the first two links, they are YouTube interviews from sources that are listed unreliable at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Film/Indian_cinema_task_force#Guidelines_on_sources (both Indiaglitz and Behindwoods). The third source is a just a short film link.

Also, she is very low-key, dubbing for films in not the original language such as K.G.F 2 (non Kannada/Hindi version) and Petta (non Tamil version). She only seems to dub in Tamil original versions for Raashii Khanna.

  • Comment Voice actors can certainly be notable per WP:NACTOR if they have had "significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions". She has voiced lead roles for many notable films, in a variety of languages. The main issue seems to me to be finding reliable sources to verify that she has voiced those roles. The sources currently in the article are not reliable or independent. I'll see what I can find. RebeccaGreen (talk) 14:11, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

      Again, I am directing you and others to the Wikipedia article in Indonesian. And so is Kentuckyfriedtucker. This page-and some sources- are two clicks away; you click on the title on top of this page and then on one of the 3 links under Languages. You’ll find some sources. You also have a page in Telugu and one in Malay but with less sources. Through those pages you can explore pages about her roles in notable productions, with sources. Mostly in Indonesian. Or you can do a BEFORE if you don’t like that method. Plenty of bylined articles in Google news about her, some significant, some ”people”-oriented (she might even meet WP: GNG, for all I know but it allows to verify the roles and their significance-it will take you muuuch more time, though) No evidence the nom has done a WP:BEFORE, btw.

Having a look at the page's recent history before writing your relisting comment would have be a good idea, maybe?@Asilvering I had indeed added quite a few sources, and the AfD-changed template and my comment indicate that quite clearly. Nothing says to "show" the sources both at the AfD and in the article. If such a requirement existed, it would be purely vexatious and extremely bureaucratic. Another user and I also indicated where and how you could find sources and check the notability of this actress, if you didn't want to open the article or do a BEFORE for some reason. I indicated the nominator had apparently made no effort to check existing sources (and had not replied to another user's inquiry about that), whereas they should have and I consider it is a relevant and helfpful comment, in particular given the fact that another user bases their 2-word !vote on the nom's rationale. I also clearly indicated why I believe the actress meets WP:NACTRESS and even probably WP:GNG. So that I am very sorry to say that I very much disagree with the implications of your relisting comment, and pretty much everything in it, to be honest. -Mushy Yank. 12:47, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What an unhelpful, inappropriate and unfair comment....SOURCES ARE ON THE PAGE.....and I spent a lot of time adding them in the context of this AfD.
