Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) is sufficient, there is no specific threshold that can be used to automatically determine if an airline is notable or not.

WP:BLP of a businessman and activist, whose claims of notability for either endeavour are not properly referenced. Three of the seven footnotes are glancing namechecks of his existence in the context of a charitable foundation, but contain no content about him to help establish his notability; a fourth is a social media clickbait site being used only to support the name of his partner, rather than anything relevant to whether he clears an inclusion criterion or not; a fifth is essentially just excerpts of him speaking about himself, rather than third-party journalism about him; a sixth is just a very brief blurb about him once having been bitten by bedbugs; and the only source in the entire bunch that actually meets all of the necessary conditions (i.e. reliable and independent and substantively about him) is covering him solely in the context of having once "won the internet" with a viral Instagram video. This is not the kind of sourcing it takes to make somebody notable per WP:GNG, because even the strongest source isn't covering him in a context that has anything to do with whether he clears a Wikipedia inclusion criterion or not, but nothing stated in the article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to get over GNG either.

- Added two more references for the subject. Will be good to quickly check him and his work by putting the subject name in Google. The article can for sure use more references and sources and in fact more material, but I barely think that the notability of the subject can be questioned. Alivenkicking (talk) 03:10, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
- One of the two new references you've added is still a Q&A interview in which he's speaking about himself, so it can be used for verification of additional facts after GNG has already been covered off but does not count toward the initial question of whether he clears GNG in the first place. Entrepreneur finally gets him off the starting blocks as a source that actually meets all of the necessary factors — reliable, independent, substantively about him, and existing in a potentially noteworthy context — but it still takes more than just one source of that caliber to actually get him to the finish line. Bearcat (talk) 15:57, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
- Appreciate your response. I would wait for other editors to chime in and see their opinions as well and then edit it further. I am sure they can have more inputs on how to improve it further and I will consolidate all the inputs and edit at one go. Will that be okay?

WP:BLP of a child activist and musician, not adequately referenced as the subject of enough media coverage to clear WP:GNG. This is referenced to just three pieces of limited-distribution local media: two are from small community weekly newspapers which are covering her only in the context of performing at small community festivals within a short drive of her hometown (and thus not satisfying NMUSIC's touring criterion, which requires a national tour), while the third is a very short piece in a local special-interest magazine which is really just a reprint of an organization's press release and not real journalism. Nothing stated in the article is an automatic hard pass of our notability standards for either musicians or activists, so it takes more than just a couple of pieces of coverage in community hyperlocals to get her over WP:GNG in lieu. GNG, as always, is not just "count up the footnotes and keep anybody who meets or exceeds two" — it also takes into account factors such as the geographic range represented by the sources, and the context of what they're covering her for.

Five sentence stub kept with no consensus a few days over 10 years ago. The three refs are Star Trek reference materials and don't seem to me to be "independent secondary sources", per WP:GNG, or establish real world notability aside from a trivial reference by Heaven's Gate members, per WP:FICT. 93 (talk) 05:17, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep/merge It's not surprising that a Star Trek concept should be documented in reference material about Star Trek. In any case, there are sensible alternative to deletion, such as merger with landing party or away (sports), and we prefer this per WP:PRESERVE. Andrew D. (talk) 15:28, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- I would support a merge to Landing party, but keeping this article as standalone seems to fail WP:GNG as officially licensed works do not seem to be independent of the subject. 93 (talk) 05:55, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per
WP:NOTNEO"NOTSENILOGISM" or possibly merge to Glossary of Star Trek terms, if there are enough entries to justify the latter's creation. Other than the Heaven's Gate wackos, nobody else has used it. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:15, 10 April 2019 (UTC) - Keep or merge to another article like the glossary mentioned above Abote2 (talk) 23:06, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep as I think this content is suitable for inclusion as it is a distinctive star trek term, and someone who might not know star trek terms reading an article about star trek, of which there are many, might come across this term and might want to know what it means. Also a google search sees its use extensivly in articles about star trek as just a normal noun, meaning the term is in use - and again, people may read it and look it up. I was also a bit surprised to see in the three weeks preceding this AFD nomination, the article got 614 page views which is actually quite substantial - so people are reading this article. Clarityfiend's idea of a glossary of Star Trek terms isn't bad, however, it would require a dedicated person to actually create which I don't think we will get in which case we should just leave the article as is. This is not a developing neologism, so I don't see how WP:NOTNEO applies. Meszzy2 (talk) 23:29, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is not a dictionary, and by extension I don't think it should be a glossary for every single Star Trek term giving individual articles to every phrase that can be found in more than two Star Trek books unless they're all compiled in a dedicated glossary page. 93 (talk) 02:28, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
- I agree that Wikipedia is not a dictionary, however, the current consensus on Wikipedia not being a dictionary is more to do with Wikipedia articles being about their subject rather than about the word like it would be in a dictionary, and not about whether a subject should or should not have an article (WP:NOTDIC). If we considered basic nouns unsuitable for inclusion then articles like Ship or Cat or Away (sports) should not exist. However, they do because the current consensus on Wikipedia not being a dictionary states that the Wikipedia article should focus on ships themselves rather than the exact definition of a ship. So what I see is an article that gets over 200 page views per week, about a term that seems to be regularly used star trek vocabulary. A google search also shows its used regularly as a term in many independent secondary sources about Star Trek - so I'm not seeing a reason for deletion. There's plenty of articles about star trek terms that seem to be just fine, like Tricorder or Dilithium (Star Trek) or Pon farr or Jefferies tube. Meszzy2 (talk) 05:12, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
- Trivial usage by independent sources verifies that it is a term used in Star Trek, but as opposed to the four articles you linked, which are distinct concepts, the subject is essentially just a fictional synonym of Landing party, where it could possibly fit in say a "Landing parties in media" section. There is also the issue of calling the current three references, which are officially licensed works, "reliable sources independent of the subject" as per WP:GNG. 93 (talk) 05:50, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
- A subjects notability for inclusion as it is determined per WP:GNG is by the existence of sources, not the three sources cited in the article (as per WP:NEXIST). As for WP:GNG itself, it states "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list." A quick look at google news shows many independent articles using the term. As for merging with Landing party - I feel the two articles are just a bit too distinct for a merge to work well. You have two terms with different names, one about a real-life naval term and one about a star trek spaceship term. Now they are similar, but I'm not sure if they are enough for a merge.

Article does not demonstrate notability. Has no independent reliable sources. Only 1 exhibition listed, which was not in a notable location (a hotel), for which 2 of the 3 sources are for, one of them being a primary source. The only other source is a primary source for membership of the industry body the British Press Photographers Association. The article's claim of "one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo had seen" is not credible, written slightly out of context and sourced to a non-reliable source.

- Comment: Here's Gallery 21. I hadn't heard of it, but it's an actual gallery, as we can see here. I think that "not in a notable location (a hotel)" (in the nomination above) is overly dismissive: it's not as if the works were displayed in an elevator hall. That said, "literally making it one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo had seen"? Why haven't I (in Tokyo) heard of this? I clicked on the reference, and read that "some [prints] measure over 3x2m, making for one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo has seen". So at the least, quotation marks are needed. In terms of surface area, perhaps this was indeed one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo had seen. After all, wall space in central Tokyo isn't cheap, helping to make Tokyo's major exhibition spaces largely immune to the fashion elsewhere for print gigantism; while there's a lot more space in Daiba=Odaiba, on reclaimed land to the south. No matter where it took place -- and (O)daiba was (is still?) a trendy place -- did this large exhibition make some impact? If it did, this isn't obvious. I presume that Gallina's name would have been Japanized as ピーター・ガリーナ or ピーター・ガリナ; but a search in Google for the latter brings nothing while one for the former brings a tiny number of mentions in blogs, on Facebook, etc, but nothing of significance (other than for Peter+Galina). So all in all, notability in Japan(ese) is not apparent. -- Hoary (talk) 23:56, 12 April 2019 (UTC)

- Delete Agree with nominator, couldn't find reliable sources 9H48F (talk) 13:36, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment Her role in Kule kidz gråter ikke was certainly significant - she was nominated for best supporting actress for it. [2], [3] (yes, both of those just list her name, but do show the significance of that role). Her role in Luftens Helter was also significant (see the Norwegian Wikipedia article [4], and here [5]). There is no English Wikipedia article about that sitcom yet, but that does not mean that the significant coverage which would show its notability does not exist. Her role in Kvinnen i mitt liv also looks significant. Given that articles about those don't yet exist on English Wikipedia, though, it would be hard to show that she was notable. (I agree that the inclusion in the article of the words "a small role in Hotel Cæsar in season 19 or 20" certainly doesn't help a claim to notability, but it doesn't necessarily mean she's not, it just means it's badly presented.)

Declined PROD. Rationale was Likely ineligible for A7 due to the credible claim of significance, however, source searches do not turn up the requisite depth of coverage for it to be considered notable.

- Comment This looks like a very interesting publisher, from the titles of the books they published (on topics including erotica, magic, the evil eye, crime fiction, etc). It seems that they were based in Leipzig in the second half of the 19th century, then in Berlin in the first half of the 20th century. German Wikipedia has redlinks for this publisher's name in a couple of articles, but no article yet. I think this is a subject which requires access to resources which are not online, and probably not in English either (though I have searched under "Verlag Hermann Barsdorf", "Hermann Barsdorf Verlag" and "Barsdorf Verlag", I think there probably aren't enough digitised sources in German yet). I will try searching in digitised German newspapers, although those which are online only cover a few years of the 20th century .....

The other page might provide relevant context. There's no real need to discuss this at AfD unless Onel5969 insisted it should be deleted after you removed the PROD (anyone can do that for whatever reason) and since redirect is pretty much the same as delete here there'll be even less reason if you choose to do that.

- Keep he seems to pass WP:GNG (to answer your question, City Councils do NOT count as "provincial/state legislatures" IIRC, although some more leeway might be given for such a large city as Philadelphia, but GNG renders the question moot), and while he's not the least obscure person barely notable is still notable.

Category:Recipients of Honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts from Rhode Island School of Design
- Nominator's rationale: Per WP:OCAWARD and WP:PERFCAT
- Articles like Caterina Fake Edward Ruscha do indeed mention in passing that Rhode Island School of Design gave them this honorary degree but they curiously don't ever seem to say why outside of footnotes. It's because she gave a commencement address source and participated in a symposium source at the school, respectively. Maybe they volunteered their time and the school felt appreciative, maybe they were paid and agreed to reduce their honorium by 10 or 15 dollars in exchange for the honorary degree, who knows. Either way, this is a non-defining award based on an (unmentioned) individual performance. - RevelationDirect (talk) 02:42, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

There is obviously a trivial edit history involved as an artifact, but that has not been an issue in similar TFD and CSD outcomes. N. B.

- Neutral. I don't really care either way, but I see nothing in WP:RFD#DELETE to support deletion, and WP:RFD#KEEP.1 seem seems to support retention. But after the wikilawyering WP:OWNership shitstorm which TonyTheTiger created over the merger, I have already spent waaay too much time on this damn template, so do whatever. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:38, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. The template was merged so the edit history should be retained. I don't see any basis for deletion. PC78 (talk) 16:43, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
- I'm confused by this request Legacypac (talk) 09:13, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment nothing in article space should be using this redirect. So I don't see why its history is worth keeping. It seems counter to most other mergers of template content that I have seen.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 01:53, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Hara (film)
- Hara (film) → Soundarya Rajinikanth (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: //delete ]
As far as I can gather, Hara was an early title for Dheera which is a now-shelved film by this director. Given that this abandoned project isn't mentioned at all in the target article, I don't see how this redirect is useful, especially as it has no significant history.

- Retarget to Hara (2014 film) and then swap those redirects. Thryduulf (talk) 15:49, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

List of political parties in North Korea
- List of political parties in North Korea (talk||history|logs|links|watch) (XfD|restore)
Consensus at AfD was to redirect to Politics of North Korea. That AfD proceeded from the nominator's unchallenged premise that "[t]he 'list' contains 3 elements and will always contain 3 elements". Not a single source was brought up during the course of discussion. As with any deficient AfD from 9 years ago, I challenged it by simply returning, significantly expanding, and sourcing the article. This revision shows that the list can contain at least 11 entries, with sources (i.e. "significant new information has come to light since a deletion that would justify recreating the deleted page"
). But since I've been reverted on the grounds of the prior consensus at AfD, I now seek for a wider opinion. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 00:49, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
