• Comment There are some companies listed on stock markets with low/insignificant market capitalisations, so being listed shouldn't warrant de facto notabilty in itself, and certainly not all listed companies are notable. I believe it should be based on coverage (beyond stock reports etc) and or whether a company is a component of a flagship indices, such as the FTSE 100/FTSE 250, which in this case it's not. Uhooep (talk) 01:50, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I had based my argument on it being listed on the LSE; it was pointed out to me there that I was mistaken--it's a subsidiary board, AIM. That doesn't have the same implication of notability. DGG ( talk ) 04:26, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Last time I went for Delete, as the only sources were investment related (mostly Investegate, which is a stock market news/commentary site) and essentially just regurgitation of the company's own RNS releases. The only claim to notability seemed to be "It's a company on AIM", and AIM is not a major stock market - its requirements are so weak, just about any bunch of ragamuffins can get a listing (though it does also host some impressively successful companies, like ASOS, with billions in revenue). Anyway, stop rambling Boing... This time I'm also seeing wider coverage such that there's appeal to more than just stock market nerds, with the conflict with the Sami people even making the BBC, U.S. News & World Report, UPI, mining sources (covering the dispute and not just run-of-the-mill mining reports), and it appears to have attracted significant Swedish coverage. Enough for GNG, I think. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 09:15, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Some extended coverage of the company in mining industry publications was in the article, and more had been mentioned in the first AfD, although I had to use a lot of Wayback Machine archives (one domain is now a Bitcoin mining site). I also found more news coverage, both Swedish and as Boing! said Zebedee mentions, some English-language, as I had when I helped expand the replacement article in 2013. Much but not all of this relates to the Kallak mine; I have been able to recast the article covering also the company's original foundation and its exploration at Ruoutevara and Ballek. I left out reports of rises in the company's stock, and the article makes relatively little use of sources aimed explicitly at potential investors. I believe I can now advocate for keeping it on GNG grounds. It should be noted that the Kallak, Ruoutevara, and Ballek links all go to articles on the company's mining explorations at those sites, and all predate this article, although probably not the earlier, more promotional article deleted after the first AfD. They provided me with some usable references but are dominated by investor-aimed and press release-based sources. If this article is kept, it might be worth considering redirecting all three to it. Although the years-long dispute over Kallak takes up a large part of the article, I believe there's enough to preserve the company article and overcome the argument that it is known only for that dispute, which I had continued while seeking sources and rewriting; the sources now only visible at the Wayback Machine help demonstrate that the news coverage has not been only for that dispute.

Biography of a person with no real claim of encyclopedic notability besides having existed. The only sources here are glancing namechecks of her existence in two books that aren't about her beyond mentioning her name on one page each, which is not enough sourcing to claim that she gets over WP:GNG -- we require substantive sources about her, not just brief one-line acknowledgements that she existed, before a Wikipedia article becomes warranted. Bearcat (talk) 22:03, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep The subject of this article is both relevant to the history of LGBT persons in Scotland and to the history of women in Scotland. The level of detail in this article indicates that there are further sources to be uncovered and it should therefore be treated as a work in progress. Delphine Dallison (talk) 13:48, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: Having just evaluated the article, I believe it pass muster now (it was somewhat shaky earlier). Given the scarcity of literacy in the time discussed, the fact is that there is enough information for two paragraphs (which is far more substantive and significant than a single line) is quite remarkable; in reliable, peer-reviewed, independent sources, too. In short, I think this article passes WP:GNG. —Javert2113 (Siarad.|¤) 14:07, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Even at the time of nomination the claims of "glancing namechecks" and "one-line acknowledgements" were not accurate and the article has since been improved. The coverage is significant and warrants an article. Thincat (talk) 14:09, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Even at the time of nomination", the only sources present in the article at all were two books in which the subject's name appeared one time on one page, supporting nothing that would have constituted a notability claim in its own right except "person who existed". I acknowledge that additional sources have now been added that change the equation, but the sources present at the time of nomination were evaluated correctly.

List of video game soundtracks considered the best (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

The page has only 15 entries after culling the others that did not have at least three separate sources. Previous discussion on the talk page was to delete the page if it could not be improved, and it's been over three months with no attempt to do so. Other suggestions than being outright deleted are to merge with List of video games considered the best (unpopular on the talk page) or just redirect to video game music. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 21:50, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. I've debated nominating this before; it's honestly just a really trivial page and its information could easily just be discussed in the articles of the games listed here. ("considered" is also a weasel word—considered by whom?) However, I wouldn't oppose redirecting to video game music. JOEBRO64 22:08, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Considered by a few publications, but not to the extinct of the List of video games considered the best list. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 09:11, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• redirect to save history.^Thanks, L3X1 ◊distænt write◊ 22:40, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Meh, but sure, redirect to video game music. Part of the reason there are few sources is because some perfectly decent sources originally in the article were thrown out on loose grounds. That said, nom's rationale is somewhat off: a short list is perfectly fine (Honorary citizenship of the United States is a list of 8 people; AFD'ing it for being too short would be silly though). The better reason to redirect is that the sourcing is still weak, at least with some sources contested. There are good, proper, published sources that aren't listicles out there on video game music (e.g. the book "Understanding Video Game Music"), so I don't think it'd take TOO much work to bring the article back if, say, 1 or 2 really solid sources could be found. SnowFire (talk) 03:39, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Honorary citizenship of the United States is not a subjective list though, so I wouldn't compare their situations. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 09:12, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • What does that have to do with anything? Maybe only a small number of video games really have highly esteemed scores. Maybe a better version of this article really only talks about 5 games. Besides, this betrays a fundamental misunderstanding of what these articles are. The list itself is not supposed to be subjective, but rather an objective combination of notable opinions - think Metacritic. And such lists can and will be short sometimes. A musician who is a one-hit wonder is going to have a very short list of critically praised songs, no? Anyway, I believe that there's enough valid content for a decent section in video game music here, which would not be true if it was "subjective" (then we'd just delete it if it was Some Wikipedia Editor's Favorite Music). SnowFire (talk) 15:55, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • Because objective facts like that are easy to source and can't be debated unlike some random author who says a soundtrack is cool and that somehow make it a definite source for calling it one of the best of all time? There has to be a lower limit to citing subjective lists like this. I don't mind a small section on the video game music article, but I'd object to including a table there. We could just list the more notable games in prose instead. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 20:44, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - this comes across as original research. Vorbee (talk) 06:55, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• How? Sources are promiently listed showing sources that made the claim. Which part do you feel is OR exactly? Sergecross73 msg me 15:14, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - I guess I'm not quite sure I understand where we're drawing the line here. List of video games considered the best and List of music considered the worst are considered acceptable, but a combination of the two, somehow isn't? (Keep in mind I'm not violating WP:OSE here - we're talking about a precedent here. These two examples have collectively survived 6 AFDs. There's a consensus they should exist.) Sourcing clearly exists - check the article, which is heavily sourced. The nomination isn't helping me understand either. Why is 15 entries not sufficient? Why is 2 sources not enough to warrant inclusion? (Usually 1 is fine honestly.) No relevant guideline or policy was cited either. Sergecross73 msg me 15:14, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Really? A single source (usually by a non-notable author) somehow makes it consensus that a soundtrack is considered one of the best of all time? That's silly to even consider. The List of video games considered the best article went through a major rework last year, and now games have to have five separate reliable sources to be included on the list, so I don't see how they really compare here. Some of the sources in use are questionable too, such as "23 Of The Coolest Ever Video Game Soundtracks" and "Nine Legitimately Awesome Video Game Soundtracks", as both are just opinion pieces by authors with neither claiming the soundtracks to be among the best of all time. If you remove them two, then you are left with just 10 entries, making this even less notable to have an entire article on. The remaining games can just be mentioned in a section on the video game music article. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 20:47, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • You misunderstand, my point was just that usually one source is usually sufficient inclusion criteria. I'm fine with the notion that more than 1 is neccessary here, but I don't see why 2 isn't sufficient. Reading through the talk page, it just seemed like an arbitrarily set number chosen by a 2 or 3 editors. Sergecross73 msg me 14:22, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
      • I just defaulted to three because that seems to be the standard for the type of lists; 2 is fine if that's the consensus. We should just never be including games with only a single source for these type of lists, which was my issue with what you said and I apparently misunderstood. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 09:19, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to video game music I am going to put my WP:BESTSOURCES hat on here. Right off the bat, I'd say NME, Rolling Stone, and Toms Guide should be removed. The first two are opinion pieces and the last is quite shit quality. That leaves just five sources, but I don't believe the sources are quite authoritative enough in the subject for it really establish a rock solid critical consensus. What I mean is, we only have two respectable music critic sources (CoS and Clash) and just one sole gaming source (GR+). The other two sources (Digital Trends and Fact Mag) seem to me like pop culture/general tech news sites. We should require several video game centric publications with strong reliability to support this article for it to make sense. Sources like IGN, GameSpot, Eurogamer, etc. Until then, a section on notable video game soundtracks on the video game music page (written in prose, not a table) would be most appropriate. TarkusAB^talk 00:26, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• TarkusAB I'm all for removing Tom's Guide, but both NME and Rolling Stone are considered reliable sources per WP:RSMUSIC, and long running print magazines in the music world. Sergecross73 msg me 13:31, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Sergecross73 I agree they are reliable, it has nothing to do with reliability. My concern is they are not "the best soundtracks ever made" lists but rather "23 of the coolest" and "Nine legitimately awesome" soundtracks. TarkusAB^talk 13:57, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• I see your concern with the NME list, but not the Rolling Stone one, which clearly sets up the article's scope in the opening paragraph, as covering nine of the best soundtracks in gaming history. That fits the scope of the article. Sergecross73 msg me 14:22, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect per others; the reason I didn't ever put much work into the page is because the available sources are almost all pretty lousy, or are just short opinion pieces of a single editor (i.e. not collaborative), and the like. There are very few lists with actual rigor or effort put into them like the ones on List of video games considered the best. If there's ever an influx of better sources, I'll support restoring the page, though. Phediuk (talk) 00:59, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - or rather: Don't delete yet.
  Normally, I'd always recommend that this very kind of stub'ish article be merged into an appropriate list-article. But! in this very case, then the appropriate list-article is "Comparison of file archivers", which however is (unlike normal list-articles) not offering an overview of all relevant properties for each item as one entry (one line in a one table). Instead each item is there split into 5 entries (5 lines in 5 tables; one table per property grouping), and that specific list-article-design/layout makes it near impossible to easily grasp the specific overview, as is offered by a specific item page (i.e. "Bitser (software)" being the item here).

• Your comment about citation is pedantic nitpicking, so it's useless to talk about it.

Content also fails WP:NOTGALLERY. A similar article was deleted some years ago at WP:Articles for deletion/Arsenal F.C. strip. As the entire content apart from most of the kit images was copied unattributed from the parent article, and most of it's still there, the original content of the parent article can easily be restored from the page history without need for merging. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 12:26, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete I haven't looked at them all, but the Netherlands and Italy national team kit articles follow the pattern of the club kits: a paragraph or two of information which could easily fit into the main article (and in some cases have been copied out of that very location to flesh out the separate articles), followed by vast collections of minor variations to the same outfits. Not needed in my opinion. Crowsus (talk) 15:23, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge as needed, per Hhkohh, then delete. This isn't notable as a stand-alone topic, though it isn't a WP:NOT#INDISCRIMINATE problem; lots of sports team articles have "galleries" of uniform changes, and this seems well tolerated.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  15:50, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - as I said at WT:FOOTY, the main thing it tells me is that the team's kit has always been a white shirt with a broad red panel down the front. That can be covered by a single sentence in the club's article. We don't need a massive gallery of microscopic variations on the same basic kit. -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 18:35, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge I think WP:NOTGALLERY doesn't necessarily apply here, as a visual kit history can be encyclopedic (see for instance [1]). I think this would be a valid category on the club's general history page. Consensus is against a standalone article, and as a note to the closer, a single user has created a number of these pages in the last two months. SportingFlyer talk 04:34, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge then delete There is a certain amount of content that is perfectly acceptable in the main article as of current it's not on the main article and a merge of said content is needed to sort this issue out so to straight up delete doesn't seem logical in anyway, especially the prose and showing the points of the main kit, it's origin, it's history. I am totally confused by the argument that a football clubs kit isn't notable. This makes no sense to me, as anyone that has seem that football club play will generally recognise the kit and associate that kit with that club, this is notability through identity. The addition of photographic images of any player ever playing for that club is photographic evidence of said notability. The main argument seems derive from an older consensus that we shouldn't have standalone articles on kits and I am in agreement that we don't need these articles. We can establish the kit identity, historical parts of it in a few words on the main article of any football club and provide a few kits as reference. I am also surprised that not one person have added that this is an unnecessary WP:CONTENTFORK argument for deletion. Govvy (talk) 06:47, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep the seperate article

Firstly': Please don't focus on the only kit evolution. Yes, right. Most of club and national team had traditional kit. Therefore, Every season, Kit had some small changes. I respect the opinion that small change is not important. But this is very relative concept. Most Museums of clubs and national football teams had Kit history room. And They are displaying kits of most seasons. Also many people want to watch the kit evolution through whole season. I mean, To many people, Especially football fans, Small changes in kit also have very important value. Kit history is also part of Football history and records and Football culture.

For example, Please check out this video!
History Of Germany's World Cup Football Kits. As you know, German national football team kit is always White shirts and Black shorts. In every major tournament, Germany kits had small changes. Many people don't think that this video is meaningless. I think 225,000 people watched this video .

Also, Please check out other country's wikipedia: es:Categoría:Uniforme de selecciones de fútbol, it:Categoria:Colori e simboli delle squadre di calcio giapponesi, pt:Categoria:Uniformes de clubes de futebol
Baseball have separate kit history article in English Wikipedia.. Category:Major League Baseball logos and uniforms

Other country's seprate kit history and Baseball articles are keeping without deletion discussion.

Secondly' We can expand seperate article with various topic. For example, Recently, Football Kit is not just shirts. Footbll kit is a kind of business. I'll want to update informations like belows

• England national football team kit deal information.

Kit supplier	Period	Contract date	Contract duration	Value	Notes
Nike	2013–present	2012-09-03	Spring 2013–July 2018 (5 years)	Total £125m (£25m per year)
		2016-12-13	August 2018–2030 (12 years)	Total £400m (£33.3m per year)

Thank you for listening my opinion. Please keep the article and Please expand together!

Comment: first point, the England kit article should not and will not be treated any differently to the other articles which have had the text pasted from the main articles followed by a big gallery of kit graphics. Even if the text was different, the topic is still too weak for their own article. Many of the contributors on English Wikipedia are not English nationality, so there is no reason why they would be more sympathetic to an article on that topic, and conversely, the English editors might give it more attention and be more critical.

Second point, English Wikipedia is a different project altogether from other languages, their rules are different and most of the articles I have read in other languages are inferior to enwiki in terms of sources and reliability. The writing doesn't seem great either but I rely on machine translations, so can't be sure. There seems to be be less oversight on what is included, so in some cases there is more stuff but a lot of it probably shouldn't be there. The point is, you can't compare wiki articles in Spanish and Italian and expect the same content to be in the English version.

Third point, no I don't think the Red Sox article is very useful either. If you're making a comparison, that article isn't just a page filled with graphics, although three references for all that text is very poor and I'm considering suggesting it for deletion having now seen it, although I really don't care about that sport or any topic associated with that country. I mean, one of the main things about baseball is that a lot of the basics have stayed the same for 150 years, traditions are good but then what is the basis of an encyclopedia article saying that a uniform has been the same with minor differences for all those years? Like the football articles, it could be included in the main team article. Crowsus (talk) 18:33, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

FYI Someone just tried to WP:CANVASS me. I have no opinion either way on this discussion, but I want to make sure you're aware. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:23, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Footwiks: AGF notwithstanding, given the similarity of that comment to this one by you, did you log out to canvass other editors? GiantSnowman 08:29, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@GiantSnowman:, Firstly, At that time, I can't login due to private situation. And I don't want to canvass, I just want to inform sports kit article contributors of this discussion's importance. (I thought Muboshgu was interested in sports kit article, I didn't force him to support my opinion. Please Check out my comment.) Anyway I really sorry about that. Actually, I didn't know the WP:CANVASS in detail. From now on, I'll be careful of WP:CANVASS policy.

In my defense, If this discussion is about just Ajax kit history article, Honestly, This discussion and deletion of article is not important a lot. But you said to me. "If Ajax Kit history article will be deleted. You'll nominate all football kit articles for deletion. As you know, Discussion make people tired and Discussion need scrafice of precious time. In general, Wikipedia users don't want to join discussion. I worried about that wikipedia users misunderstood this discussion. In other words, Many wikipedia users don't know this discussion's influence. Maybe, They can think that this discussion is about just Ajax Kit History Deletion.

If all seperate football kits are deleted by result of this discussion, By same logic, Wikipedia can delete seperate Baseball Uniform articles. Besides, In the future, In English wikipedia, We can't create separate sports kit articles.

In my opinion, Again, This discussion is not simple discussion. According to result of discussion, All separate football kits can be deleted. Therefore all dedications and contributions about sports kit aritcles will come to nothing.

In conclusion, I think Discussion title is unsuitable, (This article is suitable: For example, Articles for deletion/Separate All Sports uniforms/kits), Also, Discussion need more participants and enough time. + Footwiks (talk) 06:53, 20 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The link to the interview was working up until last week but I've removed it and replaced it with another link. RK Media and RK Panasa are an important part of the Telegu Film Industry. I've added information about an alleged drug racket to make the article seem more neutral than it was before. These references also talk about RK Panasa. I've removed the IMDB link. Even if we keep one worthy paragraph on him in Wikipedia, it will be great because the Telegu film industry and the people who work in it get very little recognition as it is.

The language used is neutral and the sources are secondary, verifiable and reliable. I asked why the page Nara Rohit is allowed to exist on Wikipedia when it doesn't have any notable references to which no one responded. I fail to understand why no one can explain that to me. I may have been paid to edit but I personally don't know this person and I have no bias. But from my research, he is and continues to be an important part of the Telegu Film industry and has also acted in a movie. If you can give me a reason why Nara Rohit's page that is riddled with citations that do not exist, are not reliable or verifiable can continue to exist and is not considered self-promotion, I will tag the Wikipedia page for RK Panasa for deletion.

I must admitt I don't speak Greek (I'm just a fan of older laiko music), so finding sources are a little harder for me (at least, here is his archived official site: [2]), plus he belongs to an older generation. However, Mr. Dounias definitely fits WP:MUSICBIO, where it is stated that a musician "may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria."

• He had press coverage. For example, here he is on a cover of an 80's weekly periodical: [3] and there are numerous interviews with him even nowadays
• "Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels": He had albums on Polydor Records, Columbia Records
• "Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style": two of his singles were released in Yugoslavia as a representative of Greek folk music in the mid-70's by PGP RTB: [4] and he was featured on at least 3 compilations representing Greek music from 1960 until 1990 [5], released by Phillips: [6]
• Although I can't find any info about his sales or chart positions, if someone is active as a musician for 50 years professionally and has greatest hits collections released regularly, he probably had some success. I guess Greek members of Wikipedia could help with that. StjepanHR (talk) 15:47, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Discogs is not a reliable source though. Can you prove your claims by citing reliable sources? The editor whose username is Z0 16:08, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • For releases on major labels, it is enough to see album covers, and they are provided on Mr. Dounias' official page: [7] and some of them have label logo (like EMI). And unless somebody photoshoped all of his album covers, even Discogs pictures would be usable for that, even though Discogs is not entirely reliable for some other uses.StjepanHR (talk) 16:59, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Multiple releases on Polydor and other major record labels, as shown on discogs.com, indicates notability. For a Greek-language singer, it's important to search on the Greek version of his name. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 15:53, 8 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Among other things [9], the title song from his 1973 LP Ταρζάν, and the song "Tου άντρα του πολλά βαρύ" from the same album, both composed by the famous Greek composer Yannis Markopoulos, were major hits in Greece [10], and they are beloved songs up till now. ——Chalk19 (talk) 00:30, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Failing notability as film maker WP:NACTOR and probably also failing GNG. Most coverage appears clustered around the time of his two travels. German main stream site Spiegel Online covered him interview style as a one off. NatGeo did the same around the same time. All other coverage seems blog-style or plugging his film and book - using similar language and pictures/clips. Little if anything by way of reliable independent editorial coverage. Certainly lacking persistence of coverage - a guy doing unusual holidays and making a film about it. He may be an up-and-coming film maker, but an article is WP:TOOSOON giving lack of depth.

I just realized there are currently article for two Rays ballparks that don't exist: the Rays' St. Pete waterfront proposal from 2007 and the Ybor Stadium that was proposed last week. Neither deserves an article at this time, imo, as the first proposal was dropped several years ago and the second is far from being a done deal. Both articles should be deleted and merged into a paragraph or two in Tampa Bay Rays and/or Tropicana Field, at least until ground is broken in Ybor. Zeng8r (talk) 05:22, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: A merge would probably be better in this scenario rather than being in AfD. There's articles on here about "future" projects or proposed projects that never made it past design phase and if it might not be a done deal than that could be explained in the article as a legit criticism. (Kind of curious on how it can't be a done deal unless you meant in parallel with the Rays Ballpark.) – TheGridExe (talk) 12:55, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

comment Merge-delete is my preference as well. Perhaps I started this discussion in the wrong venue?... Zeng8r (talk) 16:23, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, no merge. These are two separate stadium proposals, and it seems the Ybor proposal is happening. Even if it doesn't, proposed stadiums can be notable with sourcing. See the 22 items in Category:Unbuilt stadiums in the United States. – Muboshgu (talk) 13:41, 17 July 2018 (UTC):[reply]

comment I tend to be a Wiki-inclusionst, but your argument opens the door for dozens and dozens of articles about unbuilt stadiums all over the world. Do you realize how often ballpark / stadium ideas have been introduced over the years - with artists' renditions and all - across just the major sports leagues? Let's just focus on baseball in the Tampa Bay area. Before the Rays, there were at least a half dozen press conferences announcing serious plans to build a ballpark in various locations around Tampa or St. Pete. My favorite was a dome remarkably like Tropicana Field that was supposed to be built right down the street from where I lived, where Raymond James Stadium now stands. Should every one of those unbuilt proposals get an article? I don't think so. Venues-that-never-were should get a mention in an article about a related sports team or sports venue, IF they're still deemed important enough for that. Only very, very few are notable enough for their own article.

The Ray's St. Pete waterfront proposal probably should've never gotten an independent article, and it definitely should be culled now. I personally love the Ybor ballpark idea, but it's FAR from a done deal at this point. If the financing somehow comes together and bulldozers start rumbling, the current article text could be restored from the redirect. Zeng8r (talk)

• Keep. Wikipedia already has dozens and dozens of articles about proposed stadiums, so the slippery slope doesn't really work here. If there are enough sources to indicate notability, which I'm confident is the case with Ybor Stadium, proposed or unfinished ballparks getting articles is normal. No opinion on Rays Ballpark. Blackguard 17:01, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge – Rays Ballpark and Ybor Stadium should be merged. SportsFan007 (talk) 17:21, 17 July 2018 (UTC)SportsFan007[reply]

• IDEA! I still don't think that these two stadium ideas have enough notability for an article, even combined. How about this - a new section at Baseball in the Tampa Bay area discussion the many stadium proposals over the years, including these two? (I honestly thought I'd already written a section like that years ago, but it's not there, so maybe it slipped off my to-do list.) The current two articles could be redirected to that section. Thoughts? Zeng8r (talk) 21:47, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, no merge. Clearly notable per WP:GNG, even if it's never built. - BilCat (talk) 02:39, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm withdrawing my input. Running a merge discussion and an AFD at the same time? No thanks, just keep me out of it. - BilCat (talk) 00:14, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Don't understand the problem. As per usual in my 11 years editing Wikipedia, I'm trying to get as much input from as many interested parties as possible to come up with a reasonable consensus. Guess I should start deleting/moving/whatever without asking if anyone else has an opinion... Zeng8r (talk) 01:43, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's more that an AfD calls for a more immediate action versus a merge with no solid time restriction. The AfD is most likely going to become a 'no consensus' or keep based on that action. – TheGridExe (talk) 19:39, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep both per Bilcat. I have been cynical about Ybor since I heard that was their preferred location. I've been telling anyone who has asked me about it in the last week that "I'll believe this when there are shovels in the ground" after having been teased enough about stadiums in the last 10 years. Having said that, if the proposals for Al Lang and Carillon didn't exist, there would be no reason not to have an Ybor article so soon. Tampabay721 (talk) 03:40, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to Tampa Bay Rays. This is not even a firm proposal. Even if this stadium gets built, it's unlikely to retain the name.

Of the three sources mentioned by Vejvančický, two of them in my opinion do not meet that criteria. Unedited interviews, which this source is, do not count as independent of the subject. I am not convinced of the reliability of this source, because it says at the bottom of the page that "If you also have an interesting story from the war or the communist era, or someone from your neighborhood, write to us." Personally, I think the subject of the article is very interesting, but not notable. The fact that he is a Holocaust survivor does not relate to his notability, and Wikipedia is not the place to right great wrongs. Catrìona (talk) 05:16, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Catrìona, please note that Czech Radio is the public radio broadcaster of the Czech Republic, not a platform where you can self-publish everything what you want.

@Vejvančický: I didn't mean to imply that. I am unconvinced that two journalistic articles that appear to be based on an interview are sufficient to write a good Wikipedia article. Although the Czech Radio is a national, publicly funded broadcaster and I would usually consider it a reliable source, its coverage of the Prague uprising is quite distorted and as a result I have become skeptical about it.

• Keep - As per Pesa881.Redirect to Staples, but do not delete first, because editors in the future may prove notability and recreate the article, that way the page history will be preserved. -Henry ^TALK 04:40, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the information. I will update accordingly. -- Henry ^TALK 18:26, 12 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. The former Staples stores in Australia and New Zealand will now have different designs, merchandise and strategies than the Staples stores in the United States and Canada. Mixing the two together in a single article is a recipe for confusion. Moreover, Winc New Zealand has apparently been sold, or is about to be sold. http://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/BU1807/S00112/commission-approves-purchaser-for-winc.htm https://www.reseller.co.nz/article/643358/rich-lister-swoops-winc-nz/ An infobox that combined financial figures, store count and employee count for Winc and Staples would be meaningless. Winc is already notable in its own right, and the ownership change is fundamental to that notability. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 05:14, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: a major national chain, which is a sufficient claim of significance. A redirect to Staples Inc. would not be appropriate as that page states: "In 2016, Staples divested its Australian and New Zealand businesses...". These are now unrelated businesses, separately owned and operating under separate brands. A redirect would be confusing to the readers. K.e.coffman (talk) 01:37, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. Spinningspark, based on this discussion it appears better to try to include your proposed text in another related article such as Civil Services of India. Sandstein 09:17, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom and per L3X1 BD2412. Not a notable position, and the article fails to attempt to establish notability. --HunterM267 ^talk 17:32, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Um, I didn't vote or anything, just procedurally sorted the debate into the right categories. ^Thanks, L3X1 ◊distænt write◊ 18:52, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies - I read the wrong name in source. --HunterM267 ^talk 23:31, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete no sources whatsoever, and no real claim to notability. The article does little more than define what the position is. Tillerh11 (talk) 18:31, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. Some of this could be sourced from Indian Administration (Sixth Edition). Interestingly, The Home Office, 1848-1914, from Clerks to Bureaucrats discusses lower division clerks in the UK government in much more detail. Especially interesting is the history of the reluctance to promote from the lower division, presumably through class prejudice, and how this attitude changed over the years. India's retention of this post is undoubtedly a legacy of British Rule so it would not be unreasonable to include the UK history of the post in the same article. On that basis, I say the subject is notable. SpinningSpark 23:25, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Can that just be merged into Clerk, then? bd2412 T 23:34, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    • Not really, it's far too specific for that article. I'm not against a merge to a more appropriate place, but it's clear to me that it is possible to expand this page into a decent article if the historical background is included, so as far as AfD is concerned I remain at keep. SpinningSpark 10:27, 10 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• delete I don't care whether this can be sourced: it's obviously not encyclopedic to be writing up garden variety civil service positions simply because the government uses the internet to publish them. Mangoe (talk) 13:31, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete this isn't a job title directory. This is a descriptive title that could apply to any number of jobs. If the content were referenced, it might be appropriate for an article on Clerks in the Government of India, but the existing content is unreferenced and WP:TNT quality. power~enwiki (π, ν) 05:13, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• @Mangoe and Power~enwiki: The expansion I had in mind would be something like the following. Would this change your mind? SpinningSpark 17:51, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• • It doesn't change my position. I still don't know what "division" means in this context. Discussing this on a wider-ranging page that clearly refers specifically to India is a better choice than trying to discuss this specific role separately. Would Civil Services of India be a possible redirect target? power~enwiki (π, ν) 17:56, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
