I declined an WP:A7 tag on this article as there is a claim for working on the Vauxhall SRV, but although that appears in sources, there is only a minor trivial passing claim for it.

Nunn appears to be a successful professional in his field of illustration, but after a fair bit of looking I can't turn up much proper, independent sigcov. None of his three illustrated books pass a strict WP:NBOOK, though the Corbyn Colouring Book got a good number of brief mentions. I found a non-independent interview, but no proper profiles.

I understand the concerns raised. I am currently improving the article by adding more independent, reliable sources that provide neutral coverage of the subject. Additionally, I am revising the content to ensure a strictly factual and non-promotional tone, in line with Wikipedia's neutrality policy. Given that the project has received coverage in independent media outlets (such as [Shurooq]), I believe the subject meets Wikipedia’s notability guidelines. I respectfully request additional time to complete these improvements. Below are the links for your reference.

More than a year ago, Melcous correctly added our template for excessive reliance on non-WP:INDEPENDENT sources to this article on a club run by UFO enthusiast Garry Nolan that I guess tries to lobby for funding to research the space aliens they believe are running around the country or something; I'm not sure, I don't quite follow their About page [12].

In any case ,the underlying issue has gone unresolved. As an editor celebrated for his good faith commitment to preserving articles of this type, I conducted a truncated WP:BEFORE consisting exclusively of a Google News search (because, given the subject, it's obviously not going to appear in any journal or book).

This search found pages upon pages of references to this outfit which might incline the casual observer to presume it passes WP:N. However, on close inspection, most of these are to The Debrief, which is unambiguously non-RS. Its editor-in-chief is Micah Hanks who also reports on Sasquatch, [13] wrote the foreword to a "non-fiction" book on monsters that purportedly live in South Carolina [14], wrote a book about something called "ghost rockets" [15], and used to host a podcast about ghosts and ESP. The other contributors of this site come from a similar pedigree.

Additional sources are WP:ROUTINE (e.g. an event listing at the San Francisco Standard [16]) or are purely incidental mentions, such as organization officers being quoted by title in stories.

Fails WP:GNG. There is no significant coverage of the "rivalry" as a primary subject, and 14 matches between the nations over 70 years does not make a rivalry. — Jkudlick ⚓ (talk) 22:21, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep – As far as I know, it's a real and very strong rivalry. Svartner (talk) 23:05, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Where is the sourcing showing this? GiantSnowman 04:22, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Like all Grecian/Turkish relations (and as they share a border), this is definitely a notable rivalry with two nations with very expressive soccer histories that go well beyond the pitch, and it's likely there are few matches between them solely because of said history and organizers not wanting violence to occur. Definitely not a deletion candidate. There was also content removal before the nomination, which is never a good look. Nathannah • 📮 23:12, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment leaning Delete - based on the comments, seems more like a "nation issue" than a "football rivalry". Many countries have national disputes, where it results in tensions in sporting matches, but that doesn't mean it's a "sporting rivalry" it's other factors. This probably would be better as a subsection called "Greece and Turkey in Sports" in the Greece–Turkey relations article, rather than a separate article. All the sources either relate to 1) either political issues between the two nations or 2) individual articles about one country with zero mention of the other (ie. Greece winning Euro 2004). Nothing about the two countries in sports versus each other. RedPatch (talk) 10:50, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per RedPatch. There's obviously a very strong national rivalry that undoubtedly spills over into football matches between the nations, but the football rivalry itself doesn't have the sourcing needed to support its own article. Wburrow (talk) 14:18, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Needs an overhaul, but there is a strong rivalry between the two countries. This rivalry is more evident at club football, [17], [18], you get moments of problems in the national team, but not so strong. [19], [20], but between Greece and Turkey in sports. Yes there is a rivalry. I don't think the nomination understands the rivalry between these two countries. Govvy (talk) 10:43, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment – There is also a very strong rivalry between the countries in basketball. An alternative might be to move to a Greece–Turkey sports rivalry article where both sports could be covered. Svartner (talk) 14:30, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Govvy and Top Ten Lists the rivalry at 8 and Bleacherreport list it top 50 rivalries.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 17:11, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment – The Top Tens "list" is an open vote, so there is no objectivity to it whatsoever and it is, at the very least, adjacent to user-generated content. As noted in the Bleacher Report piece, Another writer here at Bleacher Report recently ranked his top 50 rivalries is World Football, and I must say, I was left somewhat unsatisfied. So I've compiled my own list of the 50 best football rivalries. Therefore, it is one person's opinion in reply to another person's opinion. Again, completely subjective. — Jkudlick ⚓ (talk) 00:58, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Bleacher Report is unreliable; see WP:RSN community discussions 1, 2, 3, 4. Left guide (talk) 07:15, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete There is actually no football rivalry. Matches against Turkey are treated like any other match. Only nationalist circles find rivalry. The Greek Wikipedia does not even have a page on "rivalry", which I consider indicative of the minimal importance of the issue for the two countries. Lord Mountbutter (talk) 17:57, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment leaning Delete as per majority of comments above, there have been few international meetings and little to no evidence provided of an enduring rivalry specific to international football. As has also been suggested above, there is a wider situation of rivalry between the nations in other sports, particularly in basketball but also volleyball and water polo as well as club football, and the fact that several Greek clubs, most significantly PAOK and AEK (the 'K' standing for Konstantinoupόleos i.e Istanbul), have their origins in Greek refugee communities expelled from Turkey – there is maybe also something the other way, can't remember – all of which could feasibly contribute to a Greece–Turkey sports rivalry article, but again this would need to be evidenced with specific sourcing. Crowsus (talk) 08:22, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lean Delete I agree with others on the use of a Greece–Turkey sports rivalry article in the future, even potentially merging/redirecting there, but for football, the sources above provide very, very little to significantly cover the topic, and it is mostly based on the clubs not the national teams. Conyo14 (talk) 17:27, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete and very firmly so. The sourcing does not support this as an actual rivalry. There is not a single source in the article which currently details the rivalry - it's all about the countries history with each other or the successes of their national teams. The linked articles in the AfD are of no help. The Sportsgazette article talks about violence in Greece and Turkey, not about the rivalry between these clubs. The New York Times just outlines some fan violence in a Fenerbahce match in Greece, not about a national team rivalry; the Guardian just outlines the booing through a moment of silence, not an actual sporting rivalry. And the two listicles - one is a fan vote, the other is user-generated and is one of the weirdest ranking articles I've ever seen. There is absolutely no sourcing showing that there is a rivalry between these two national teams. SportingFlyer T·C 09:33, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Don’t really think it fits WP:noatability Jabba550 (talk) 11:11, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and do not merge to Greece–Turkey relations. Fails WP:GNG due to a lack of WP:SIGCOV covering this football series as a "rivalry." All of the references appear to be WP:ROUTINE coverage. I oppose a merge because the bilateral relations pages discuss the relations between two nations, not a history of results between their sports teams. Frank Anchor 12:33, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not an accepted genus, apparently, per IRMNG (link). This is a Junior subjective synonym of the subgenus Heodes, within the genus Lycaena.

Fails WP:NPRODUCT. Very limited coverage provided. The article is mostly sourced by user-generated Marketplace product listings, which is far from a reliable source. The LocoLabs sources are primary references by the manufacturer. The Marketing Week source seems to be an affiliate announcement about Bandai's marketing campaign for the product.

In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews - in the Selected publications section, the references are to reviews of his books. It is certainly true that the article is frequently subject to less well sourced additions from IP editors - who probably have a conflict of interest - which are reverted from time to time. I won't revert them during this AfD (and some of the additions may merit a place in Selected publications) but will once it's finished. If the article is kept, I suggest that it be placed under extended confirmed protection to help prevent these kind of additions from happening.

Clearly fails WP:NATHLETE. Article created in 2007, no more WP:SIGCOV in 20 years that points to notability. Longhornsg (talk) 05:04, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@User:Vestrian24Bio, do you not think the sources added since the nomination demonstrate notability? We have a whole page dedicated to Hussain by the North-West Evening Mail (clearly SIGCOV). He represented Pakistan "A", so at some point was considered amongst the top 20 cricketers in Pakistan's most popular sport, and played for close to two decades. There will be sources in Urdu for someone who knows where/how to look. Jevansen (talk) 12:11, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
WP:SIGCOV - significant coverage which isn't just one whole newspaper page.
WP:NCRIC - "cricketers who have played at the highest domestic level or in the lower levels of international cricket", WP:OFFCRIC - only Pentangular Trophy in his time period in Pakistan. Vestrian24Bio 12:22, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Jevansen: "at some point was considered amongst the top 20 cricketers in Pakistan's most popular sport" - any source for that claim?? Vestrian24Bio 12:23, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Vestrian24Bio: The WP:OFFCRIC guideline you linked lists the Pentangular Trophy under tournaments that have "first-class cricket status that the Cricket WikiProject deems (players to be) notable enough to presume coverage". He played in this tournament during the 1990s.[21]. In addition, Hussain played for Surrey in Div 1 of the 2007 County Championship, undisputedly the highest level. The basis of the top 20 claim is maths ... Pakistan "A" being the second eleven ... so top 22 by definition (I rounded down). Jevansen (talk) 12:41, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Northern Syrian regions

Although these do not automatically merit deletion, the article contains huge chunks of unsourced content and info not supported by the cited reference, which I will get to the details later. More importantly, the major problem with this article is that the concept is a WP:SYNTH. As far as I can see, none of the sources mention or delineate this specific "region". "Northern Syrian regions" is not a phrase precedented in reliable sources that specifically refers to these areas of Turkey. "Northern Syria", even within the context of Ottoman history, refers to a far broader region that contains much of modern Syria or Ottoman Syria, including Aleppo. I initially thought at best, this article could be moved to "Turkish Syria", which is mostly found in over a century-old sources but still also refers to Aleppo: [22] The idea I get from this article is that it describes the areas that would be under the Mandate for Syria and the Lebanon according to the Treaty of Sèvres, which did not come into full effect. If this were the case, that would be a content fork, too. Now, returning to WP:VERIFY issues, the list of failed verifications is long, but here are a couple of examples: Nowhere does a traveler mention in 1910 here Mardin Province is (or would be) ...% Arab in 1927 or in any year. Nowhere in Morality Tales: Law and Gender in the Ottoman Court of Aintab does Leslie P. Peirce mention the 1927, or say 1550, composition of the city of Aintab. Cited references include WP:SELFPUBLISHED maps such as this which ironically also fails verification. As of this revision, about 15-18 paragraphs do not include a single reference, not that the references necessarily support the content. Overall, assuming this weren't a content fork, it would have to be moved to a verifiable name that at least was utilized by 2-3 sources. Then, a complete cleanup would have to be done, and each bit would have to be verified with the cited reference.

  • weak keep by default, because this is a bit of a non-debate. The fact that one editor doesn't see the point of an article isn't really grounds for deletion, and the fact that someone else finds it possibly useful isn't strong grounds to keep. My feeling is that the list is apparently correct and sourced, and it's quite possible that some school kid somewhere is making polyhedron models and excited by their angles, so for the sake of them, I'm fine about the table existing in their favourite encyclopedia.

Okay, could be off the mark here, but I am not seeing any in-depth coverage regarding this concept. Seems to be a bit of WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. Onel5969 TT me 15:18, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: As discussed previously in places like Talk:Late Shang, there are different ways used by academic sources to periodize the Shang dynasty, which is itself a helpful and interesting topic. For example, many academic sources divide the main Shang period into 2 phases (Early Shang and Late Shang), whereas various other sources divide it into 3 phases (Early Shang, Middle Shang, and Late Shang), etc. Also, the article Late Shang is currently about “Late Shang” within a certain periodization method (starting from Wu Ding), but there are also different ways of understanding the term (e.g. starting from Pan Geng). The periodization of the Shang dynasty is often associated with Shang archaeology, which is itself an important topic. In any case, this general article (Periodization of the Shang dynasty) is used to explain such things as done in academic sources, although of course the article can be further expanded for even more detailed coverage. —Wengier (talk) 17:29, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A minor character in the Bones TV series.

Can't find anything about this railway station in Pakistan. I did find an article about a railway station that happens to be called "Raina", but it is located in West Bengal (India), not Pakistan.

Alright -- the subject of this article fails WP:GNG, and notability for companies because of lack of WP:SIGCOV, and WP:SUSTAINED in WP:RS. There are lots of sources, but they are either WP:ROUTINE, very old announcements of the opening, or not independent.

This is an article about a mountain lake in Norway -- fails notability guidelines, by virtue of being a random lake in Norway. There are 300,000 lakes in Norway. Besides that, most of the article fails WP:NOTPROMO, and WP:NOTGUIDE; it talks about the amenities of the lake, like hikes, grills, and a nearby campsite. Serious NPOV issues, doesn't belong on Wikipedia. Needless to say no WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 00:40, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Needless to say was poor semantics, I apologize. I did my WP:BEFORE on JSTOR, Gbooks, GScholar, and norwegian google. I said it was a "mountain lake" because the article classifies it as a "tarn," which is a mountain lake. There some things, like "woah guys this lake exists," but imo it still fails under WP:NOTGUIDE-- I could be wrong, and if so, please let me know w/sources etc. This article is also an orphaned article.

    Instead of proposing deletion out of unfamiliarity with the topic, editors should engage in constructive editing. Improving the article through collaboration and research aligns far more closely with Wikipedia’s core values than erasing valuable content.
    This proposed deletion is unwarranted and reflects a lack of familiarity with the subject matter. The article concerns a notable and long-standing media brand that has been reviewed and approved by both UK and US Wikipedia moderators. The deletion rationale appears overzealous and poorly researched, especially given that similar media outlets (e.g., Popjustice, The Line of Best Fit, Far Out) maintain pages with fewer documented milestones. Instead of proposing deletion, improvements should be encouraged. Editors unfamiliar with the digital media and entertainment news niche should refrain from making sweeping judgments without due diligence. SmGLis (talk) 09:17, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lots of problems: first, subject fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:SUSTAINED, and WP:RS. One of the sources is "Nerdist," an unreliable source. Even if it was reliable, it's a piece about a kickstarter. The other source is a defunct self published site, and the last source is a niche magazine. It's also a human interest story. On to the most important part; the creator of the page seems to be affiliated with the subject, with the username matching the title and a COI message on the talk page.

This article does not meet the general notability guideline, and does not meet the notability guidelines for companies. The claim to notability surrounds its involvement with human rights abuses, ending in deaths, in Indonesia. This breaks policy because just because the company was the subject of a (probably not) notable event, does not make it notable. No inherited notability. Next, This company does not have WP:SIGCOV that is WP:SUSTAINED, and the sources don't seem to be WP:RS, but I haven't done a deep dive. No other coverage besides this stuff, where it isn't the main story. This company isn't notable. More, the sources are also from 2011, pretty out of date.
