  1. The Water Project: nominated at AfD; notified Mr satan acc (talk · contribs) 13:01, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
    • Reason: This article about a non-profit is currently only sourced to the organisation's own website and to a BBC article that provides a WP:PASSING mention that a group of hackers donated money to the organisation. The only other sources I was able to find were a WP:HUFFPOCON op-ed by the organisation's CEO , a WP:MEDIUM interview with the CEO , and a few press releases like these , none of which would be considered independent. It was also featured in the 'nonprofit spotlight' section of Philanthropy News Digest in 2018 , but this seems more like a repackaging of information from their website rather than anything that could be considered SIGCOV. Overall it seems like an charity that's doing great work, but I don't see anything that suggests it meets WP:NONPROFIT.

  1. English Australia: nominated at AfD 09:33, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
    • Reason: This article is supposedly about an industry association for English language schools in Australia, but contains almost no information about the actual association. Instead, almost the entire article reads as an unsourced advert/guide for how to apply to English language courses in Australia. I wasn't able to find anything to suggest that the organisation itself would meet WP:GNG - their media releases are sometimes quoted in specialist publications, but there doesn't seem to be any secondary SIGCOV. The title could potentially be turned into a redirect for either English Australians or Australian English?

  1. Abiola Aderibigbe: nominated at AfD; notified BBenebo (talk · contribs) 06:43, 2 November 2025 (UTC)
    • Reason: This article contains ten secondary sources that provide SIGCOV of Aderibigbe, all of which appear to be undisclosed paid content per WP:NEWSORGNIGERIA:
      *These three articles in The Nation, all credited to Samuel Oamen:
      *These four articles in The Independent, all credited to Ikechi Nzeako
      *These three articles in The Sun, all credited to "Raphael":
      These all seem to be relatively obvious undisclosed paid coverage. Despite being published in different newspapers under the names of different journalists, several are identical or near-identical. For instance, these three articles were published within days of each other and are almost verbatim copies of one another. These three articles , credited to Samuel Oamen, Ikechi Nzeako and Raphael respectively, are loosely rephrased copies of one another. These two articles also read like an LLM has rephrased the same story. All of the sources are also absolutely filled with blatant puffery. One of the "journalists" credited for these pieces, Samuel Oamen, has various profiles listing "SEO" and "PR" as among his areas of expertise: .
      This was declined by three AfC reviewers, with myself and @Reading Beans declining on the basis that the sources were unlabelled sponsored content. Also pinging @Kvng as the accepting AfC reviewer and @Pythoncoder as another AfC reviewer who looked at this.

  1. Adaption AI: nominated at AfD; notified UniversArch (talk · contribs) 20:27, 3 August 2026 (UTC)
    • Reason: Procedural speedy renomination. The article creator has now been blocked for UPE and the three keep voters from the original AfD have been blocked as sockpuppets of Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Eyoab. Courtesy pinging @MediaKyle and @M kuhner as participants in the original AfD — no opinion on the article from me.
