If you think a review of a deletion discussion is needed, please list it here and say why. Users can then comment to reach an agreement on whether the community thinks the discussion was closed correctly, or the decision should be overturned. Each user can say if they want to endorse the closure, or overturn the closure, with a brief comment, and sign with ~~~~.

A page should stay listed here for at least 5 to 7 days. After that time, an administrator will decide if there is a consensus (agreement) about what to do, and take appropriate steps. If the consensus was that the discussion was closed correctly, the discussion should be closed with a note saying this.



SpBot archives all sections tagged with {{Section resolved|1=~~~~}} after 3 days. For the archive overview, see Archive.

I nominated this article for deletion at Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/Bad (Bodo culture) and it was closed as Keep by Auntof6, I don't believe this is a notable subject, Other than a few book mentions I've not found anything substantial or in-depth, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 22:38, 7 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Merge content into Boro people under a Culture section. Both articles are very short and although I don't see the notability for the article either, I could see some usefulness as part of the main article. Griff (talk) 23:34, 22 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for commenting @Griffinofwales, I didn't think of merging - If Auntof6 doesn't have any objections then I'll merge,
@Auntof6 did you have any objections to merging this into Boro people?, Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 23:58, 22 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Davey2010: No objection. -- Auntof6 (talk) 01:01, 23 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Allamah Sayyid Ihsanullah Shah Rashdi

change

A prominent religious scholar and Khilafatist from Sindh, he had millions of religious followers, and his teachings deeply influenced Muslims in the Indian subcontinent and Arabia. These facts are well-supported by sources, even though understanding non-English sources can be challenging for many Westerners. Recently, I found out that it was taken to AfD but had no proper consensus, as most people couldn't read or understand non-English sources, which is understandable. So, I'm asking for a review of sources and calls for the restoration of our Sindhi literature. Our Sindhi History is very rare and precious for us. Thank yall For your time

Bless.

Comment: the page is sourced it actually meets WP:GNG we should consider removing contents which lacks sourcing. Articles like that contains sources should be improved instead. Jinglingzone (talk) CaptVII̟̠- 11:50, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Comment - relevent AFD from enwiki - w:Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Sayyid_Ihsanullah_Shah_Rashdi, so some questions on the right article name to avoid honorifics and a sock that was also active here. Ravensfire (talk) 12:56, 18 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Endorse deletion The sources aren't significant in-depth sources and the article is clearly not neutral. Most of it is based on single source which isn't reliable. This request itself demonstrates COI.-- BRP ever 06:54, 2 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Userify - Without seeing the article, I can only judge based off the non-English sources, the AFD, and the RFD. The AFD performed a review of the sources available to them, which showed only 1 RS for the subject of the article. The RFD closed finding for deletion. I believe that the best option is for the article to be created in userspace, and then reviewed by editors to ensure that the article meets the appropriate notability policies.

Hello Eptalon and @Fr33kman: What typo? (Everyone else will need to know these were redirects to Faithless elector laws.) – Invasive Spices (talk) 21:41, 19 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Comment: these are most likely terms you made up, that are not widely used and there is no need for such redirects to exist. BZPN (talk) 17:39, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
They actually aren't made up terms, but they are full case names that are not used. See w:Chiafalo_v._Washington, with w:Baca v. Colorado Department of State redirecting to the Chaifalo article as well. The full case names do not exist as a redirect on enwiki and I would ask they be deleted if created as highly unlikely terms to be used. The short case names is how they are referenced in sources. These redirects should not exist here. Ravensfire (talk) 18:22, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hmm, Invasive Spices is blocked on enwiki [13] with the reason being "Persistent creation of unhelpful redirects despite many being deleted at WP:RfD, and repeated personal attacks against RfD nominators" The first half of that seems to be happening here recently. See [14] with some of the more recent redirects besides this suggestion. Ravensfire (talk) 19:33, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
I think you're right. Maybe an admin could warn them? BZPN (talk) 19:37, 21 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
while these may be the official names of the case, I wonder how many people will search with that title, especially since it is long and unwieldy? Eptalon (talk) 23:53, 22 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
Very, very few - a google search [15] has very few pages with that as the title, most of the major case summary websites use the short version that we have as a title here. Ravensfire (talk) 02:17, 23 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Restored These are not typo to begin with. Feel free to take it to RFD.--BRP ever 15:47, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

@BRPever: just look at these titles - a dozen or so similar ones have been reported to RfD and it doesn't seem like they will be welcomed. This is a redirect created by a user who is here not to build an encyclopedia (there was a discussion on AN; blocked on enwiki for the same). These titles are useless, illogical, complicated and unhelpful. There is no point in leaving them. BZPN (talk) 15:52, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
This title isn't that bad. Mass-creation of such redirects can be pain, and I understand the concern which led to their onestrike block, but once the review is requested we need to see if the QD criteria is correctly applied or not. In this case, restoring is the right thing to do.-- BRP ever 15:56, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
@BRPever: what is the point of redirecting under the name of the institution with the names of officials added? That's not even a name for this institution (it may be OR), not to mention the fact that no reader will type it into a search. BZPN (talk) 16:03, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
Still don't see how R3 applies to this. Whether to keep/delete has to discussed in RFD. BRP ever 16:14, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
R3 is the most fitting criterion (although of course not fit, but it is the closest). This name is the author's original research, and no one else on the Internet uses such a name. Hoax doesn't quite fit in my opinion either. BZPN (talk) 16:30, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
@BZPN: It can be frustrating, but the QD criteria have to be applied exactly as written. R3 requires an actual typo, not just text that doesn't seem appropriate or doesn't seem to be a good title. -- Auntof6 (talk) 16:50, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you.--81.26.204.11 (talk) 12:06, 4 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
The page was quick-deleted as 'A4 - doubtful notability'; what could possibly be done is to undewlete the page, and to send it to a disussed deltion. This would run for a week, and afterwards an independent admin would close the RfD. Dear IP editor, please create an account, if you want to contribute more often; your voice will aso have more weight. What do other people think? Eptalon (talk) 12:44, 4 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
If the draft on enwiki w:Draft:Ardi_Pulaj is similar to what's here, I would prefer not to undelete it. Many of the sources are BY Pulaj, or are interviews with Pulaj, what's needed are sources ABOUT Pulaj. The socking aspects don't help my view either. Ravensfire (talk) 17:40, 4 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
That first source is just an item written by the subject. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 21:20, 4 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
Looking through most of the stuff, it seems like a lot of the sources are either where the subject appears on TV, or is something written by the subject. I don't see much to show they meet WP:GNG. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 21:22, 4 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
@Ravensfire: The draft on enwiki is similar. If anything, it contains more info than the article here. -- Auntof6 (talk) 22:25, 4 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
Gotcha. If it's easier to run this though an AFD to put this to bed, that sounds okay to me. I suspect there's some IP sock evasion from Benny8907 here. Ravensfire (talk) 03:51, 5 January 2025 (UTC)Reply
