Wikipedia:Requests for deletion

If you think a page should be deleted, read the deletion policy to make sure.
Then follow these instructions on how to request a page for deletion. To find more information on what discussed deletions and quick deletions are:
PLEASE READ THIS

Before nominating: checks and alternatives

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 deletion

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.
3. 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.
3. 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/2020/(name of page to be deleted)}}

4. 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 deletion

See also: Wikipedia:Deletion policy § Quick deletion

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 user

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.

Discussions

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.

•  Delete - It was nice of them to use IMDb as a referece as it shows he has a single acting credit in a short. The listing in the article is almost all unfinished work (announced, pre-prod, filming, post-prod) with only 3 not tagged as such and he is uncredited in one of those... Ghits turned up his IMDb page (with all one of his roles), blah blah and us.. not screaming notability here. Youtuber who got his channel yanked and cant get work in the industry doing anything real.

• Several issues point to this being a hoax. The article only exists here and the Thai wiki. Google hits for the term "Cartoon Network Thailand" all point to the CM themed waterpark in Thailand, Cartoon Network Amazone. No hits for a television channel. The article lists the launch date in both 1994 and 1999. The 1994 date listed is the same as that for CN Southeast Asia. The same is true for the channels it broadcasts on. Both CN-SA and CN-T broadcast pm ch. 453 and 499 on the same provider. The whole lot is unsoursed so no help there. The external link on the thai CNT page point to CNAsia and an archived page that has nothing of note. While there is enough cross-over to hint at them being the just a mixup of the same thing under 2 seperate names, the Thai page for CN-T notes that it is not the same as CN-SA. --Creol(talk) 06:42, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

• This channel does not seem to exist. Sky One was originally a product of Sky UK but was replaced a while back. There is no sign of it being relaunched in Latin America. It says the programming is from Sky UK, but the shows listed (and linked to es:wiki) are of Mexican and S Korean origins. Its listed launch date is the same as the article creation date.

• Painting by a painter from Northern Italy (1881-1941, I think), who became known for his portraits, starting about 1910. Amisani was really well known in his time. This one was donated to a museum in Brescia, the second city of Lombardy (About 200k people in the city proper, 350-500k in the urban area). Painting was donated to the museum there in 1966 (museum is part of a world heritage site). In short: I see no reason to delete this. --Eptalon (talk) 21:33, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
•  Keep Happy to keep this notable painting by a notable artist. Just because there isn't a lot about it on Google ought not make it impossible for historical items like this. Blissyu2 (talk) 07:08, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
• Comment: I agree that the painter is notable, but I have yet to see anything that makes this specific painting notable. As Blissyu pointed out, there isn't a lot on Google, which makes me wonder if it is notable enough for inclusion. Yes, some paintings should have their own articles, but I don't know if this one qualifies. I'm leaning to delete. Griff (talk) 15:39, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

@MathXplore: Could you please move this page in my draft space, so that I would be able to edit it and inreach with valid info?--MlungisiMlungisi (talk) 09:04, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

If you want to continue your activities at here, you must learn how to move pages by yourself. Please read WP:MOVE before moving. Cross-namespace moves will require additional discussion. MathXplore (talk) 09:22, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

Moved to your userspace at User:MlungisiMlungisi/Obotuke Timothy Ochuko Sirbalo per request. I suggest that you have a member of the community review the article prior to bringing back to the article space. Best, Griffinofwales (talk) 09:35, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

• Article moved to user space, please close RfD -Griff (talk) 15:28, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

• Probably shouldn't have been moved during a discussion. But either way, moving it wouldn't end the Rfd unless the nom withdrew. -Djsasso (talk) 20:22, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

•  Keep - As long as it stays in the user space, notability is not an issue. If it wore main spaced, then sure, delete it.

• Merge anything useful into the LGBT article, as with enwiki. --IWI (talk) 00:36, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
• Comment I am currently checking every single source to see if any of them are RS. Some are obviously not. Back in a bit. Darkfrog24 (talk) 00:47, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

 Keep I'm not sure, but I think I've fixed it. Once I took out all the crummy unreliable sources and simplified the English it actually looked pretty okay. (Abbreviations.com is RS. Who knew?) Some of the journal articles cited the end are examples of scholars using the term MOGAI, so they help establish notability. Darkfrog24 (talk) 01:20, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

But for a standalone article? --IWI (talk) 01:27, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

I'm good with it. Nothing says we can't have an article before en.wiki does. We had one on Penguin Town first. Darkfrog24 (talk) 03:32, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

@Darkfrog24: I see, but to be clear, my argument is I don't believe it is notable for a standalone article. I was just pointing out that enwiki had done this. --IWI (talk) 15:37, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

• Merge and redirect into the LGBT article as per IWI. Griff (talk) 15:41, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

• Delete I would say to the editor who made it to take it to the English Wikipedia, the wording is too hard to understand, and not good for simplewiki. (Sorry, it's actually quite hard to write stuff here. simple? nope, not for the contributors who are en-N anyway!) Mako001 (talk) 11:46, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

  Please go through the article now. I have made changes for simple understanding. Acharya77 (talk) 13:07, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Some of the citations are — Citation1, Citation2, Citation3, Citation4, Citation5. She even have articles in Tamil, Kannada and Telugu languages. - Acharya77 (talk) 18:15, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
•  Keep I'm happy to support this one. It makes some significant claims of notability. While there are issues with its simplification, that's arguably not the role of RfD. 58.179.159.63 (talk) 20:41, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

This was intended as an addition to an existing page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_theatre_awards#Other_USA) that represents a metropolitan area of 200,000-plus South Dakotans. Validation for such a page was the neighboring Ivey Awards in MSP (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivey_Awards). Sample of media coverage includes: https://www.keloland.com/news/local-news/sioux-falls-stage-awards-set-for-thursday/

THANKS for your consideration! SFluke (talk) 23:09, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

•  Delete - Delete per nom.--Zero mention at English-wiki, it seems (in case anyone wondered). 89.8.126.227 (talk) 22:57, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
• Note that EnWP isn't omniscient or infallible. When searching for the title, as spelled in the article, I find what looks like the site of the awards. What is a little odd: Sioux Falls is the biggest settlement in South Dakota, with about 175k in the city proper, and around 250k if you take the "urban area". I would guess that at least a local newspaer would report on these awards; I mean even if they are small, or alternative. - Thats the kind of news where the local press can stand out. I do however not see anything that looks like a newspaper, in the first few pages of hits. So, where are these? - If they are absent, notability is probably not there either. Delete? After watching the report linked above: borderline keep - let's do something for local communities trying to re-vive theatres...--Eptalon (talk) 23:30, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
• For now, I am not even comfortable in having the Sioux Falls Stage Awards mentioned in the article about Sioux Falls, South Dakota - not even without a wiki-link.--The wiki-article does not explain why the subject is notable. 89.8.143.29 (talk) 07:07, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
