In my BEFORE I can't find any good refs for it; though some may exist in Turkish - perhaps some Turkish speaking Wikipeidans could comment here and rescue this article if possible with reliable, in-depth sources? There is no interwiki to Turkish Wikipedia, so I couldn't use their article for additional insight. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 00:38, 4 July 2020 (UTC)) |
2020-07-04 | Blue Ox Jerky | AfD (0 k, 1 d) (Non-notable product. Of the sources in the article, Trademarkia looks unreliable, metromode clearly states the source of the article is the company, the press release does not contribute notability, and the sources from the company itself are not independent. A Wp: BEFORE search brings up press releases and blogs. Fails the notability requirements for organizations and the general guidelines. Hog Farm Bacon 15:51, 4 July 2020 (UTC)) |

2020-06-20 | Jung Hyo-jun (South Korean actor) | AfD (0 k, 1 d) (Reviewed under new article review process. No indication of wp:notability under either wp:GNG or the SNG. I looked at (but did not translate) all of the references. There appears to be no GNG-suitable coverage of him. The only medium length coverage of him appears to be a press release repeated verbatim 3 times. This is evidenced in the article having essentially no text content. Of the tv shows listed, 2 have articles and he is not listed as starring in either of them. He is on secondary lists at those articles, one amongst ~44 other names, the other amongst approx 18 names.

This article has misused all the parameters from using Press coverage, non-notable media mentioned to the editing by none other than paid editor on wikipedia.

2020-06-23 | QloApps | AfD (2 k, 1 d) (I don't see how this meets WP:NCORP or even WP:GNG. Opensource.com reads like an ad, Capterra is the blog of an online marketplace, financesonline doesn't strike me as establishing notability, and neither does any of the other sourcing in the article. A WP:BEFORE before search reveals no other coverage that would be sufficient for notability. While it may be "the only truly free and open-source software that is trying to serve the hotel industry", I don't see the coverage to make it notable. A previous prod was removed, so taking to AFD.

2020-06-20 | Science Inc. | AfD (1 k, 0 d) (insufficient evidence for notability by WP:NCORP. The references refer entirely to funding. , and acquisition of other firms. There are the usual promotional interviews in references 1,3, and 4, where he ceo can give his intentions.. But there's nothing substantial, because the firm has done nothing substantial to write about, but fund and buy (and sometimes sell) other companies. Some of those others are possibly worth articles.

2020-06-28 | Tether Studios | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (Does not meet WP:GNG or, more specifically, WP:CORP notability.

2020-06-29 | Bitcoin XT | AfD (1 k, 1 d) (Gmaxwell sums it up at Talk:Bitcoin XT. "Bitcoin XT stopped being Bitcoin software over two years ago and it was abandoned over a year ago. It hasn't seen a single update in a few days shy of a year now. The article contains many outdated and simply incorrect claims and it isn't likely to be corrected or maintained because the article is about a long defunct obscure piece of software. Is there any good reason to not delete the article?" So this is merely a historical relic, it could be a footnote in Bitcoin. Ysangkok (talk) 01:53, 29 June 2020 (UTC)) |

2020-07-02 | 69,105 (Natural number) | AfD (1 k, 5 d) (An article about a recurring joke in video games developed by a company. Bulk of article is retelling of appearances in games. I redirected it before, but it was restored, because the main article Infocom doesn't mention it. Better through AfD I suppose. The WP:VG/RS custom Google search engine brings up zero results. "69,105", "69105", "69 105", etc., all nothing. Looking up 'in-joke', 'recurring joke' and 'Infocom', I get some more. And while "Self-Reflexivity and Humor in Adventure Games" or "Long Lost ‘Zork’ Source Code Uploaded to GitHub, But Few People Understand It" are interesting articles, nothing discusses the occurrence of the "69,105" in-joke.

I'm aware that I may be missing points as I cannot read Japanese, but I can't find anything to show the level of in-depth coverage or significance that I would look for to meet WP:CORP or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 07:33, 1 July 2020 (UTC)) |

2020-07-03 | Ph1LzA (English Streamer/YouTuber) | AfD (0 k, 6 d) (Contested PROD. The article lists two sources about the same event, one from the BBC and another from Mincraft.net. I managed to find two additional sources; one recently from PC Mag and another from Gamepur which lists him as one of the top 10 minecraft twitch streamers but only gives about a paragraph of treatment. I can't find any other sources, and they all seem to be about one particular event. I'm not particularly familiar with how the GNG applies to Twitch streamers, but it seems the subject may not be notable. — Wug·a·po·des 23:28, 3 July 2020 (UTC)) |
2020-06-29 | Bitcoin Core (Cryptocurrency wallet software) | AfD (2 k, 3 d) (Since the Bitcoin network is dominated by Bitcoin Core nodes, it makes no sense to have a separate article on Bitcoin Core. Furthermore, the article has only industry sources that are vested in Bitcoin being popular, like "Bitcoin Magazine", which was founded by Vitalik Buterin (now Ethereum). And Andreas Antonopoulos is selling a Bitcoin related book. There are no general news coverage, which is required per Wikipedia:GNG. Ysangkok (talk) 00:28, 29 June 2020 (UTC)) |

Other articles I found online are about Playrix as a company and only mention Fishdom tangentially. Since May 2020, there is a tag saying the article may have been the subject of undisclosed paid editing (diff [2]), but I cannot find any context for this. Overall, doesn't meet WP:GNG.

2020-07-04 | Pwn (Internet slang term) | AfD (3 k, 2 d) (It's time this article finally got pwned. Wikipedia is not a dictionary, and the bar to notability for a word is very high indeed. A basic glance at this article shows that it consists of definition, etymology, usage over time, pronunciation, and four cultural references. All but the last are precisely dictionary material, and the last is not enough to sustain an article. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 14:17, 4 July 2020 (UTC)) |

Pretty much the only secondary source I could find that wasn't routine content is this Vice article, which is someone's personal account of the event. Not sure if that would help; even if it did, the article still wouldn't likely stay.

Over the course of eleven years, this company has still not garnered significant coverage from independent reliable sources.

An article about this person was deleted twice before (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jeremy Jahns and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jeremy Jahns (2nd nomination), but I just declined a G4 because the deleted versions of the page were considerably different—notably, virtually all claims were sourced to the subject's YouTube channel itself. This version also includes assertions of notability (impressive-sounding subscriber and view numbers) that were not present in the deleted versions. Having said that, I still have grave doubts that notability is made out, and so I didn't want to just decline the speedy and leave it at that.

2020-07-08 | SkyscraperCity (website) | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (This article has been created for a while, but doesn't seem to pass Wikipedia's notability standards. Basically all the citations on this article are either not reliable sources or they didn't discuss this subject in sufficient details (if at all) or both. I also tried to do some quick search on the internet, but can't really find any editorial coverage. I believe a discussion around this page needs to happen.
Edit: I just found out that the page has in fact been nominated for deletion four times before now, and the consensus has been to delete all four times. Seems, this article is being continuously recreated, despite the lack of notability. I advise that the topic should be protected from further recreations, if it is deleted again this time.

Article's sourcing is poor and outdated. Many sources are either dead links, or are not reliable (such as "Blog China" and Southern Metropolis Daily). The few sources that are more reliable (such as United Daily) can be added to this incident's section on the main Xinwen Lianbo page, where it is already explained. Although Xinwen Lianbo is not a great source on its own, the influence of this individual event on the credibility of Chinese state-run and state-sponsored broadcasters (as the article claims) appears to be have been extremely minimal after the initial popularity of this internet phenomenon around 2007/2008.

I think the subject may not be notable per Wikipedia:Notability (academics). At first blush, the author appears to have many citations, but on closer examination most of those citations come from a single highly-cited paper led by a large consortium, of which the author was just a part. According to Scopus, the most cited papers on which the subject is the senior author (i.e. his laboratory did the work) have been cited 130 times, 115 times, and 95 times. Each of these papers is in cancer genetics (a very highly cited field) and is from the mid-1990s (so lots of time to garner citations if they were highly influential papers). Given the field and the passage of time, I don't think the citation counts here demonstrate "significant impact in their scholarly discipline" as WP:NPROF's first criterion intends.

The place he's mayor of has a population of just 36K, which is nowhere near large enough to hand him an automatic presumption of notability -- the notability test he would have to pass is not just the ability to verify that he exists as a mayor, but the ability to write and source some genuine substance about the political significance of his time as mayor. But other than pre-political career background and routine reportage of the municipal election, the only other claims of significance being attempted here are that he was the first openly gay mayor of his own town, which is not an instant inclusion freebie in and of itself, and that he won minor awards like the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal and a local Rotary Club award, which don't pass WP:ANYBIO as "inherently" notability-making awards. And as for the sourcing, there are five primary sources that are not support for notability at all, four pieces of routine local reportage of the municipal election, three glancing namechecks of his existence in articles that aren't about him, and two articles in weekly community hyperlocals that are covering him in non-notability-building contexts like being a volunteer and expressing his own local-interest opinion on the local impact of a national political issue. (And no, he doesn't get an article just because his predecessor has one, either -- his predecessor has an article for having been a provincial MPP, not for having been a mayor per se.)

Wikipedia already has lists for the pets who held this achievement (cats, dogs), which these articles could possibly redirect to.

This is a great story ! do not delete! Some one please make a table of the oldest living cats like is done for the supercentarians, by country.

The primary notability claim as a musician is that he was a member of a band who certainly clear NMUSIC as a band, but the band's notability does not automatically guarantee the standalone notability of every individual band member: to be notable enough for his own standalone BLP as a separate topic from the band, he would have to redemonstrate that he has notability independent of the band: solo albums, coverage that was specifically about him rather than just mentioning his name in the process of being about the band, and on and so forth — and as an actor, his only discernible notability claim is that he's had a couple of supporting or extra roles, which is also not an instant notability freebie. And as for the footnotes, the reliable sources here are entirely about the band, while every single reference for anything else is a primary source (user-generated content on Facebook or Twitter, the self-published websites of organizations that he's directly affiliated with, etc.) that is not support for notability at all.

2020-07-07 | Line of succession to the former Austro-Hungarian throne | AfD (2 k, 3 d) (A. The "present line of succession" is hypothetical--inferred based on who would have been emperor if all nobility/royalty hadn't been abolished and outlawed in 1919. There is no actual, legal line of succession, nor is there a reliably-sourced movement to restore the empire that confirms this ordering. The page is actually just an unverified line of succession to various heads of families.
B. The intent of this article is to maintain an active line of succession based upon Almanach de Gotha and other nobility periodicals. However, as these sources are not updated regularly, other sources such as birth announcements on twitter are used to update the article, with the editor's own interpretation of succession laws determining where in the line a person now stands. Even if the title still existed, this would be OR. Additionally, cobbling together disparate references to create a more expansive diagram of relationships than that seen in individual sources is synthesis. C. Most of the people in this line do not have WP articles, and no sources are provided verifying their inclusion. This is firstly a BLPNAME violation (particularly for the minors); secondly a violation of general BLP sourcing requirements -- possibly meeting the criteria for immediate removal: claiming noble titles is *illegal* in Austria, so inclusion on here could therefore be a contentious allegation; and thirdly an issue of DUE.

The other two articles are about Callum Hudson-Odoi and briefly mention him appearing in Gaffer. It's hardly indicative of notability.

The "One to watch" source is under a discussion for being unreliable, See here as it published under Live Nation umbrella, so it is biased. There is only one source that is reliable "Alternative Addiction", however, it should be multiple according to the guidelines above, which is not the case.

The primary notability claim as a musician is that he was a member of a band who certainly clear NMUSIC as a band, but the band's notability does not automatically guarantee the standalone notability of every individual band member: to be notable enough for his own standalone BLP as a separate topic from the band, he would have to redemonstrate that he has notability independent of the band: solo albums, coverage that was specifically about him rather than just mentioning his name in the process of being about the band, and on and so forth — and as an actor, his only discernible notability claim is that he's had a couple of supporting or extra roles, which is also not an instant notability freebie. And as for the footnotes, the reliable sources here are entirely about the band, while every single reference for anything else is a primary source (user-generated content on Facebook or Twitter, the self-published websites of organizations that he's directly affiliated with, etc.) that is not support for notability at all.

GA aside, when you exclude the YouTube and iTunes sources, it hasn't received extensive coverage and is really a WP:STUB.

Other than the fact that it exists, the only other notability claim being attempted here is that it was nominated for a minor regional award that isn't a notability clincher, as it can be sourced only to the awarding organization's own self-published website about itself rather than any evidence of media coverage about the awards to establish their notability -- and once you discount that, fully eight of the other ten footnotes are the show's own self-published content about itself, which is not notability-supporting sourcing either. And of the just two footnotes that are real media coverage, they're both local to the show's own media market, and one of them is from a hyperlocal neighbourhood weekly. So there's really only one source (Montreal Gazette) here that has anything whatsoever to do with actually getting the show over WP:GNG, which is not enough.

The sources are an array of mere business listing sites, mentions in passing and questionable news outlets (some of which my defenses show bearing malware...). There are some unanswered COI concerns as the author seems to have embarked on creating an array of articles about this person, his business interests and some family members.

The two Butte County locations are both spots on different rail lines, where there used to be passing sidings. The WP line for the one is still there, but it's just a place where the line crosses a road, and there were never more than a handful of buildings about, all apparently belonging to the surrounding farms. the other was on a Feather River line that's long gone: the topo maps that show the line place a single, isolated building next to it.

The place he's mayor of has a population of just 36K, which is nowhere near large enough to hand him an automatic presumption of notability -- the notability test he would have to pass is not just the ability to verify that he exists as a mayor, but the ability to write and source some genuine substance about the political significance of his time as mayor. But other than pre-political career background and routine reportage of the municipal election, the only other claims of significance being attempted here are that he was the first openly gay mayor of his own town, which is not an instant inclusion freebie in and of itself, and that he won minor awards like the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal and a local Rotary Club award, which don't pass WP:ANYBIO as "inherently" notability-making awards. And as for the sourcing, there are five primary sources that are not support for notability at all, four pieces of routine local reportage of the municipal election, three glancing namechecks of his existence in articles that aren't about him, and two articles in weekly community hyperlocals that are covering him in non-notability-building contexts like being a volunteer and expressing his own local-interest opinion on the local impact of a national political issue. (And no, he doesn't get an article just because his predecessor has one, either -- his predecessor has an article for having been a provincial MPP, not for having been a mayor per se.)

I also have to say that Durham's story of the origin of the name isn't terribly plausible, and the Butte County histories are full of people named Pentz. This is right in the middle of the ongoing issue with these GNIS-based articles: I really don't see how we can justify having an article on a place that we cannot describe well, nor clearly characterize.

Almost all sources mention it in the context of the 1939 City of San Francisco derailment, which took place nearby. I'm not seeing much evidence that there ever was a populated settlement here. Our article on the derailment describes it as a "rail siding", and this 1941 court judgement describes it as a "railroad section crew headquarters". I suspect the railway had something here but that doesn't translate to a community. There's clearly no community there now, satellite imagery just shows a patch of desert next to the railway and a river, with no structures visible.

The topos apply the label to a group of five building dots a bit sought of the old Feather Rjver RR line, but no aerial shows anything there, and at least one shows a clear cut area with no buildings. However, just to the west, there is a passing siding on the FR line, which goes unlabelled in the topos ("Camp One" just to the south is obviously a WPA camp), but the only text reference to the name I can find speaks of it as a railroad spot. My suspicion is that it is this siding which is the actual Rogerville.

Old enough topos show that Viewland was a siding on the SP Modoc line, and before that on the Nevada–California–Oregon Railway, the predecessor narrow gauge line. The Modoc line was abandoned almost as soon as the SP-UP merger went through, and parts of it have gone rails-to-trails, including a section starting around here.

With that said, I searched google books, finding this Journal of Commerce that mentions it in passing, a mention in The New Yorker (looks like a routine listing of their event as far as I can tell). On google there are various charity listings and Wikipedia mirrors, none of which establish notability, and this, which barely counts as a book review-- I don't think it even mentions the book. I then checked my universities databases, and found exactly one passing mention. Newspapers.com is a little more promising, with some passing mentions (mainly this AP article), but that's again not enough to establish notability. The article further has a very promotional tone. It's possible (though unlikely) there could be enough coverage based upon how many different sites use the title 'going coastal', and the article has been around since 2005, but I just don't see a pass of NORG or GNG.

And while there is a "this article may be expanded with text translated from the corresponding article in French" tag at the top, the French article is just a very short stub with nothing to actually translate that isn't already here and citing no sources at all, which means it's deletion bait over there as well.

The article hints at problem number one, because mostly it's not about Leavitt the place, but about Leavitt the person, and indeed he and his irrigation company so dominate the search results that it is al most impossible to get past them. But banging on it several ways, I did find a few references to Leavitt station in the usual railroad regulatory material. Problem number two, however, is what does not appear in the article, because immediately adjacent to it is a major prison complex; indeed, you pretty much have to drive through this Leavitt to get to the High Desert State Prison. But the entire complex is within the Susanville city limits as a discontinuous piece, and nothing I've seen admits that this Leavitt sits right next to it. So the only solid evidence of Leavitt as a commmunity is me looking down and seeing a loose cluster of houses. Did anyone ever think of this as its own town? I can't tell.

I cannot find any mention of the place other than an extremely passing reference in Gudde and the usual railroad regulatory material.

2020-06-20 | Jung Hyo-jun (South Korean actor) | AfD (0 k, 1 d) (Reviewed under new article review process. No indication of wp:notability under either wp:GNG or the SNG. I looked at (but did not translate) all of the references. There appears to be no GNG-suitable coverage of him. The only medium length coverage of him appears to be a press release repeated verbatim 3 times. This is evidenced in the article having essentially no text content. Of the tv shows listed, 2 have articles and he is not listed as starring in either of them. He is on secondary lists at those articles, one amongst ~44 other names, the other amongst approx 18 names.

2020-07-09 | Going Coastal | AfD (0 k, 0 d) (I don't see how this meets WP:GNG or WP:NCORP. Sourcing in the article either isn't independent, isn't significant coverage, is unreliable, or the link doesn't work. With that said, I searched google books, finding this Journal of Commerce that mentions it in passing, a mention in The New Yorker (looks like a routine listing of their event as far as I can tell). On google there are various charity listings and Wikipedia mirrors, none of which establish notability, and this, which barely counts as a book review-- I don't think it even mentions the book. I then checked my universities databases, and found exactly one passing mention. Newspapers.com is a little more promising, with some passing mentions (mainly this AP article), but that's again not enough to establish notability. The article further has a very promotional tone. It's possible (though unlikely) there could be enough coverage based upon how many different sites use the title 'going coastal', and the article has been around since 2005, but I just don't see a pass of NORG or GNG.

AfD (0 k, 3 d) (I am nominating Rubble's page, and several other similar pages, for deletion for the same reason as my previous AFD nomination: holding the title of "oldest living cat" (or oldest living dog) for a year or two is not enough to pass WP:BIO and is a textbook example of a case of WP:1E where the one event isn't even particularly notable outside of the Guinness Book of World Records. Wikipedia already has lists for the pets who held this achievement (cats, dogs), which these articles could possibly redirect to. I am also nominating the following related pages because they are non-notable for the same reasons as Rubble.

2020-07-07 | Line of succession to the former Austro-Hungarian throne | AfD (2 k, 3 d) (A. The "present line of succession" is hypothetical--inferred based on who would have been emperor if all nobility/royalty hadn't been abolished and outlawed in 1919. There is no actual, legal line of succession, nor is there a reliably-sourced movement to restore the empire that confirms this ordering. The page is actually just an unverified line of succession to various heads of families.
B. The intent of this article is to maintain an active line of succession based upon Almanach de Gotha and other nobility periodicals. However, as these sources are not updated regularly, other sources such as birth announcements on twitter are used to update the article, with the editor's own interpretation of succession laws determining where in the line a person now stands. Even if the title still existed, this would be OR. Additionally, cobbling together disparate references to create a more expansive diagram of relationships than that seen in individual sources is synthesis. C. Most of the people in this line do not have WP articles, and no sources are provided verifying their inclusion. This is firstly a BLPNAME violation (particularly for the minors); secondly a violation of general BLP sourcing requirements -- possibly meeting the criteria for immediate removal: claiming noble titles is *illegal* in Austria, so inclusion on here could therefore be a contentious allegation; and thirdly an issue of DUE.

There is some minor coverage of a plane they are developing, but the few sources about it are sketchy in relation to notability, Wikipedia isn't news anyway, and NCORP clearly states product launches are trivial. The triviality of it is more so in this case though, because the product isn't even launched yet.

I think the subject may not be notable per Wikipedia:Notability (academics). At first blush, the author appears to have many citations, but on closer examination most of those citations come from a single highly-cited paper led by a large consortium, of which the author was just a part. According to Scopus, the most cited papers on which the subject is the senior author (i.e. his laboratory did the work) have been cited 130 times, 115 times, and 95 times. Each of these papers is in cancer genetics (a very highly cited field) and is from the mid-1990s (so lots of time to garner citations if they were highly influential papers). Given the field and the passage of time, I don't think the citation counts here demonstrate "significant impact in their scholarly discipline" as WP:NPROF's first criterion intends.

Unfortunately, my GS results are swamped by hits in Chinese which I am having trouble analyze, but the few I looked with Google Translate seem to be passing mentions and/or of dubious reliability. As for the coverage in the Offshore (magazine), it is interesting (1995, so a bit less spamy than some random new website). There are few paragraphs about it, and I would be even willing to accept it as borderline reliable and in-depth, but I am having trouble locating anything else to back it up. Can anyone see if they can find more good sources and rescue this?

AfD (0 k, 3 d) (I am nominating Rubble's page, and several other similar pages, for deletion for the same reason as my previous AFD nomination: holding the title of "oldest living cat" (or oldest living dog) for a year or two is not enough to pass WP:BIO and is a textbook example of a case of WP:1E where the one event isn't even particularly notable outside of the Guinness Book of World Records. Wikipedia already has lists for the pets who held this achievement (cats, dogs), which these articles could possibly redirect to. I am also nominating the following related pages because they are non-notable for the same reasons as Rubble.
This is a great story ! do not delete! Some one please make a table of the oldest living cats like is done for the supercentarians, by country.
