Before nominating: checks and alternatives Edit

Shortcut

Prior to nominating article(s) for deletion, please be sure to:

A. Read and understand these policies and guidelines
  1. The Wikipedia deletion policy, which explains valid grounds for deletion.
  2. The main four guidelines and policies that inform deletion discussions: notability (WP:N), verifiability (WP:V), reliable sources (WP:RS), and what Wikipedia is not (WP:NOT)
  3. Subject-specific notability guidelines, which can be found at Category:Wikipedia notability guidelines
B. Carry out these checks
  1. Confirm that the article does not meet the criteria for quick deletion.
  2. If there are verifiability, notability or other sourcing concerns, take reasonable steps to search for reliable sources. (See step D.)
  3. Review the article's history to check for potential vandalism or poor editing.
  4. Read the article's talk page for previous nominations and/or that your objections haven't already been dealt with.
  5. Check "What links here" in the article's sidebar, to see how the page is used and referenced within Wikipedia.
  6. Check if there are interlanguage links, also in the sidebar, which may lead to more developed and better sourced articles. Likewise, search for native-language sources if the subject has a name in a non-Latin alphabet (such as Japanese or Greek), which is often in the lede.
C. Consider whether the article could be improved rather than deleted
  1. If the article can be fixed through normal editing, then it is not a candidate for RfD.
  2. If the article was recently created, please consider allowing the contributors more time to develop the article.
  3. If an article has issues try first raising your concerns on the article's talk page, with the main contributors, and/or adding a cleanup tag, such as {{notability}}, {{hoax}}, {{original research}}, or {{advert}}; this ensures readers are aware of the problem and may act to fix it.
  4. If the topic is not important enough to merit an article on its own, consider merging or redirecting to an existing article. This should be done particularly if the topic name is a likely search term.
D. Search for additional sources, if the main concern is notability
  1. The minimum search expected is a normal Google search, a Google Books search, a Google News search, and a Google News archive search; Google Scholar is suggested for academic subjects.
  2. If you find a lack of sources, you've completed basic due diligence before nominating. However, if a quick search does find sources, this does not always mean an RfD on a sourcing basis is unwarranted. If you spend more time examining the sources, and determine that they are insufficient, e.g., because they only contain passing mention of the topic, then an RfD nomination may still be appropriate.
  3. If you find that adequate sources do appear to exist, the fact that they are not yet present in the article is not a proper basis for a nomination. Instead, you should consider citing the sources, or at minimum apply an appropriate template to the page that flags the sourcing concern. Common templates include {{unreferenced}}, {{refimprove}}, {{third-party}}, {{primary sources}} and {{one source}}.

Discussed deletionEdit

Put the deletion tag on the article.
  1. Click "Change source" at the top of the page to be deleted.
  2. In the edit box, add this tag: {{rfd|REASON}}. Put it at the top of the page, above the rest of the text. Then, replace the text "REASON" with a short reason why the page should be deleted. Do not be too specific here. You can add more details on the discussion page (see below).
  • It is a good idea to write a change summary to let others know what you are doing. You can say "nominating for deletion", "requesting deletion", or something like that.
  1. Click "Save changes" at the bottom to save the page with the deletion tag at the top.
  • You can also check the "Watch this page" check box to add the page to your watchlist. This lets you know if the page for deletion has been changed. If the deletion tag is removed any time before the discussion is closed, it should be put back.
Create a discussion page.
  1. If the deletion tag has been added to the page, a box should appear at the top of the article with a link saying "Click here to create a discussion page!" Click that link.
  2. You should be taken to a page starting with "Creating Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/..." along with the current year and the name of the article to be deleted. In the edit box, the following tag should have already been added: {{RfD/Preload/Template}} . Replace the text PLACE REASON HERE with a more detailed reason why the page should be deleted.
  • It is helpful to include links to the various policy pages about Wikipedia (that begin with Wikipedia:). Here are some examples of this: "This article is [[Wikipedia:COMPLEX|not easy to understand]]" or "Not a [[Wikipedia:notable|notable]] topic''. This will make others more aware of why the page is not acceptable under Wikipedia's policies.
  1. Click "Save changes" to save the new discussion page when you are done.
  • A change summary you can write for this page is "creating discussion page", "starting deletion discussion", or something like that.
  • As with the page for deletion, you can check the "Watch the page" box. This will let you know if someone else has replied to your discussion.
List it here
  1. Copy the title of the discussion page to the clipboard. You can do this by dragging the mouse over the text from "Wikipedia" to the end of the page title to highlight it, then right-clicking and selecting "Copy".
  2. Go to the list of deletion requests, and click "change source" beside the words "Current deletion request discussions".
  3. At the top of the list of discussions, paste the title from the clipboard (right-click and select "Paste"). Add a pair of curly brackets before and after the title to make a template that will copy the content of the discussion page onto the main deletion page, like this:
{{Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2019/(name of page to be deleted)}}
  1. Finally, click "Save changes" to add the discussion to the list. If the page saves successfully, you should see your deletion discussion at the top of the list. And that's it!

Quick deletionEdit

See also: Category:Deletion requests

If you think a page has nonsense content, add {{non}} to the top of the page.

If you think a page does not say why the subject is important, add {{notable}} to the top of the page.

If you think a page should be deleted per other quick deletion rules, add {{QD|reason}} to the top of the page.

Notifying the userEdit

Generally, you should try to be civil and tell the user that created the page to join the discussion talking about the page. This can be done by adding {{subst:RFDNote|page to be deleted}} ~~~~ to the bottom of their talkpage.

DiscussionsEdit

See also: Wikipedia:Deletion review
  • The discussion is not a vote. Please make suggestions on what action to take, and support your suggestion with reasons.
  • Please look at the article before you make a suggestion. Do not make an opinion using only the information given by the nominator. Looking at the history of the article may help to understand the situation.
  • Please read other comments and suggestions. They may have helpful information.
  • Start your comments or suggestions on a new line. Start with * and sign after your comment by adding ~~~~ to the end. If you are responding to another editor, put your comment directly below theirs and make sure your comment is indented (using more than one *).
  • New users can make suggestions, but their ideas may not be considered, especially if the suggestion seems to be made in bad faith. The opinion of users who had an account before the start of the request may be given more weight or importance.
  • Suggestions by users using "sock puppets" (more than one account belonging to the same person) and IP addresses will not be counted.
  • Please make only one suggestion. If you change your mind, change your first idea instead of adding a new one. The best way to do this is to put <s> before your old idea and </s> after it. For example, if you wanted to delete an article but now think it should be kept, you could put: "Delete Quick keep".
  • If you would like an article to be kept, you can improve the article and try to fix the problems given in the request for deletion. If the reasons given in the nomination are fixed by changing, the nomination can be withdrawn by the nominator, and the deletion discussion will be closed by an administrator.
  • Try to avoid confusing suggestions, such as delete and merge.

Remember: You do not have to make a suggestion for every nomination. You should think about not making a suggestion if:

  1. A nomination involves a topic that you do not know much about.
  2. Everyone has made the same suggestion and you agree with that suggestion.
  • All times are in UTC.

Eptalon has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: I first deleted the article as a hoax, then it was recreated. There's not really a lot of material when going through search engines. Google brings up "G Pimp", with with a number of links to youtube (which is owned by Google). So the big question here is not whether this is a hoax, but if the info we have is accurate, and if the person is notable enough in an encyclopedic sense. I therefore decided to go through a regular RfD. Comments? Eptalon (talk) 19:40, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

  • Delete I've looked for him on Sound cloud, Vimeo nothing like that. On en.wiki also no such guy so it's a straight hoax--DJ (✉ - ✔) 19:46, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
  • (edit conflict) Delete Even if the article would not be considered a hoax, I don't see anything notable about the person in question. The references provided are merely links to his music or mentions of him, but no articles about his music or anything like that which clearly to me is an indication that this person is not notable. --Reception123 (talk) 19:47, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Delete Web search reveals no content about this artist from major sources. Citations provided show no notability. -- Deborahjay (talk) 19:55, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Keep It seems like we are Google searching for the wrong artist name (G Pimp), I'm assuming his artist name is J-Pimp because it's in this article on Simple Wikipedia. I did find his music on SoundCloud with over 1,000,000 plays while Google searching 172.56.12.17 (talk) 20:01, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
Could you a link to this Soundcloud page? We all did searches and did not find what you are suggesting. Reception123 (talk) 20:04, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
  • SPEEDY DELETE also block the creator and anyone supporting the article. This is a globally blocked sockpuppet vandal. Yes, globally, which means he is banned from all Wikipedia, not just one portal. Refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Prince-au-Léogâne/Archive for a brief history. Quakewoody (talk) 03:51, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Eptalon, if you have no objections I'd like to delete and salt this article immediately. It's a creation by an xwiki LTA that was deleted by RfD under a year ago. Best regards, Vermont (talk) 04:02, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
  •   Delete this garbage. Long term abuse, not remotely close to being notable and per Vermont has been previously deleted under RFD. Hiàn (talk)/editing on mobile account. 11:00, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Update - I blanked the article. Sue me. It is better to break the rules to protect the integrity of Wikipedia, then it is to follow the rules and let the article remain. Quakewoody (talk) 11:31, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
@User:Eptalon. @User:Vermont. this case shouldn't take a week. Get rid of the article! Quakewoody (talk) 11:59, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
The rules are there for a reason, you don't decide to make exceptions to them when you want to. The administrators will deal with this case, in the meantime please leave the page alone and leave any comments you have here. Reception123 (talk) 12:00, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
I'm glad you brought up the rules. Because had the rules been followed from the start, this article would never have come up for discussion. He is a globally blocked sockpuppet vandal. Any edit he makes is to be immediately removed. From all Wiki portals, which includes simple.wikipedia. Quakewoody (talk) 12:07, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
While that may be true, it is not your job to enforce the rules by blanking the page. It is up to the administrators to do so, and they will take whatever action they see fit. Reception123 (talk) 12:09, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
By portals I assume you mean projects. Although I have blocked the IPs, I will note we are not obligated in any way to do so, or even to delete this article. No project is. It seems you misunderstand whatever rules you refer to, as edits by sockpuppets with locked accounts are not necessarily required to be removed. Vermont (talk) 12:17, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

  •   Delete. Notability not proven, and the page is essentially an advert for the company. Macdonald-ross (talk) 09:04, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
  •   Keep. Indian state owned and listed entity with notable presence in authoritative media. As checked with Google News on Aug 19, 2019. Though the article need to comply with wikipedia standards. MilesML05 (talk) 06:50, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

  • According to the source, he was a test-level cricketer who was banned for fixing matches. The article says nothing, and in effect has no content. It's best to delete such cases as the page is "little or no content". Of course a proper biography would be welcome. Macdonald-ross (talk) 09:14, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Delete Per Macdonald-ross; if no one wants to improve there's no point in keeping the article that basically says nothing about the person. Reception123 (talk) 12:00, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Keep. An important figure in the history of [[India national cricket team] as he was once upon a captain. Better to improve the article. AnuraagPatel (talk) 01:30, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Keep I really don't get how this guy is non-notable. Former captain of the Indian National Cricket team who got embroiled in a match fixing scandal and was banned for life. There sure are a multitude of sources that have reported this.  — FR 02:38, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

Here's their website. I don't believe it's conferring of notability; considering it's designated for "emerging filmmakers", few results on Google, and that it's website is terribly made, I doubt it's even notable itself. Vermont (talk) 14:16, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
as far as i know ip's can't vote...can an admin confirm? Computer Fizz (talk) 17:44, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
Deletion discussions aren't votes; it's about consensus. An IP who simply writes "keep" and nothing else will very likely not be taken into account by the reviewing administrator. Vermont (talk) 18:02, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
Yeah i know but most people use the word "vote" since it's shorter than "leaving a consensus note for the closing admin". I have seen anons get striked during RFA's and figured it might be the same for RFD's. Computer Fizz (talk) 19:28, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
RfAs are different. You have to have an account before the RfA started to !vote to prevent canvassing from other wikis. Because RfDs are content discussions anyone can take part. -DJSasso (talk) 11:55, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

Eptalon has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: Retired British ambassador/diplomat.

DiscussionEdit

  • In our insular way, we are inclined to think that a KCMG is automatically notable. It's known as a "Kindly call me God". But there is an even higher rank: GCMG (supposedly "God calls me God"). Of course these awards come with the job, and so are not independent evidence of notability. I notice that he was "Ambassador and Deputy Permanent Representative to United Nations... and President, UN Trusteeship Council, 1983-84". Hmmm... no vote yet.

Eptalon has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: Professional boxer, from India, born in 1995. Searching on Google, this article turn up quite early in the list. While I am not into sports, I still need to ask: What is it that makes this person notable? - Given the search results, and the article we have, I'd argue to delete this article. What does the community think? Eptalon (talk) 11:40, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

Please discuss this request below, but keep in mind that you shouldn't vote on everything and that there may be options other than "keep" or "delete", such as merging.

  • I've chased around these claims. He has certainly won something. It seems to be a "silver" title, which used to be called an "intermediate" title. I think there is just one title, not two, and it is in this rather limited sense of being a promising newcomer in an area which is not highly competitive, globally speaking. He is not an Asian champion in the proper sense. I come down on the delete side. Macdonald-ross (talk) 12:23, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
  • He won 2 titles on that night on, and is the first Indian boxer to won a unification title WBC ASIA Silver and Asian Boxing Federation (ABF) title. Get your facts right before discrediting one and only Indian Boxer to have won the unification belt, you can contact wbc Asia and ABF for proof keep — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.10.203.163 (talk • contribs)
If he fought two fights on the same evening, that just goes to show what the standard was. No-one could do that in Europe or North America. Macdonald-ross (talk) 11:53, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
  • He has secured 2 continental titles on a single day, you may refer to his boxing record available online. This is an ordinary achievement in Asia. I recommend to keep this article. KnowledgeIndiaOnline (talk)

Eptalon has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: Self-published author; article was likely created to promote the books listed. I do not see anything that would make this person notable. In short: someone who is doing the job he was trained for. So... delete? Eptalon (talk) 11:47, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

  • Delete doesn't fulfill notability requirements as the books clearly doesn't make him fulfill en:WP:AUTHOR. No sense GNG can be meet either. Sources needs evaluation as I can't read them but overall promotional. --Cohaf (talk) 13:08, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
  • Keep The books listed in the articles are free, so no benefits of promoting it, and if it is the problem we can just delete the book section it was mentioned as part of the biography, and if it is the problem we can just delete the book section, And yes Eptalon I know how to write articles in Wikipedia! this is not my first article or first translation!HitomiAkane (talk) 18:35, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
  •   Delete. Not notable because the page scarcely addresses the issue. Very poor page indeed. We expect proper sourced reasons for the scarcely-even-claimed notability. Macdonald-ross (talk) 13:28, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

Vermont has nominated this page for deletion for the reason: Doesn't seem to meet GNG. I was unable to find anything online other than Twitter, SoundCloud, and this. Also, amusingly, the article was created with the following at the bottom: "Created and written by Michael Power, 2019 ®". I presume they intended to copyright it, and instead put the registered trademark symbol, both of which mean nothing since it's released CC BY-SA. Vermont (talk) 01:13, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
