I read a recent post that verified what was in the Wikipedia information about Marisol Rubio and I too can verify that the information is factual. But then I saw from another post that stated that it isn’t whether the information is factual but whether it is notable. As a user of Wikipedia I appreciate being able to search for honest and reliable information. Regarding the maintaining of the article is the question. My position is that the article on Marisol Rubio should be maintained because she is running for CA State Senate to represent just under one million people (my community). I believe this article will be/is of service to our community in getting to know about an outstanding community activist, a woman who is a member of a minority, from the working class who is running for the CA Senate. She is a role model and I do not believe that she nor the work that she has done is "run of the mill". 2601:644:9200:A31B:A48C:8654:95AE:867 (talk) 01:19, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Right...I'm sure you, the anonymous user typing out an overly formal essay praising Marisol Rubio, are a totally different person compared to the first commenter, who was also an anonymous user typing out an overly formal essay praising Marisol Rubio. There are over 100 state senate candidates in CA every two years and tens of thousands of city councilors. Giving all of them a Wikipedia page would be ridiculous. And that's even besides the point because, even if your argument was sensible, that's not Wikipedia's current policy, so this page should still be deleted. BottleOfChocolateMilk (talk) 03:10, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Bearcat's reasoning. Should Rubio win the state senate election, which is almost a year from now, then the article can be recreated as she would pass WP:NPOL. Best, GPL93 (talk) 15:30, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Over 20 years ago, he was involved in an altercation in Kyrgyzstan with Tommy Caldwell (who would become one of America's most notable climbers); however, Smith achieved little notability beyond that incident, and there is no proper SIGCOV on him in any quality RS (either national-RS or in climbing-RS per WP:NCLIMBER). Can't see this BLP surviving on Wikipedia long-term? Aszx5000 (talk) 13:25, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Contested draftification. This article was moved from article space to draft space by User: Significa liberdade saying that more sources were needed. It was moved back to article space without adding sources. There is only one source, The Elections Centre of Plymouth University, which is a reliable primary source. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:47, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Plymouth University is sufficient as a primary source for verifying the content. Finding secondary sources at a level comparable to the other ten articles we have for the various Lancashire County Council elections and the hundreds we have for local elections for other county council might be difficult for pre-web elections, but not impossible. Draftifying this page would only slow things down. Owen×☎17:44, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Other Lancashire County Council elections are notable. As we go back in time, sourcing is harder, but the topic remains notable. Bondegezou (talk) 15:19, 5 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Clearly notable event and the article is sourced (and the source is not a primary source; a primary source for the election in question would be the council itself publishing its results). Number5708:39, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Appears to be an hoax. Fictional character from the named book in the article. Am unable to find any other source that mentions it in the slightest. Fermiboson (talk) 03:15, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think it might be, if the character is notable. The first book the article cites actually mentions the character, and on the exact correct page, as a fictional character. It’s not a significant mention like you’d need for notability, but it supports what the article says if you know it’s fictional. (This is according to google books preview) Mrfoogles (talk) 04:58, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The snippet is: “ In 1912, for example, Sir Edmund C. Cox published The Exploits of Kesho Nark, Dacoit, which describes the exploits of a fictional Indian bandit who behaves in a Robin-Hood-like fashion: 'what Kesho robbed from the rich he distributed ... to the poor'. In this case the outlaw's activities are overtly anti-imperial.” It uses it as a quick example, basically. Mrfoogles (talk) 05:00, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Seems to be from a real book, so it would have to be a really indepth hoax to also fake an entire old book. Still, does not appear to pass GNG. If the book itself is notable, a new article on that would be a better idea. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 13:19, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If you check the history, the first version of the article presented the character as a real person. That part has since been corrected, though of course all the peacock wording has not. Fermiboson (talk) 14:53, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@StAnselm with all due respect and assuming good faith; This team is quite new, and there's a lack of in-depth citations both within and outside Wikipedia. Presently, the citations mainly focus on athletes and coaches joining the team from different places globally and according to WP:NTEAM, the notability of an athlete (or a coach) that does not imply the notability of a team or club. As it stands, the topic seems premature for Wikipedia inclusion i.e., WP:TOOSOON, though I am receptive to further information meeting WP:HEY. Charlie (talk) 05:47, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Although there are sufficient sources the article in its current state isn't great and I doubt that anyone would notice a redirect at this stage. It might end up getting filled out in January when the next season is apparently to be played. On available sourcing it's a keep though. Blue Square Thing (talk) 06:59, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lipoexpediency is not a commonly-used term. Lipoexpediency is not even an uncommonly-used term. It originated as a clever turn-of-phrase in the title of a decade-old journal article and has been used only a small handful of times since, either in reference to that article or by members of the team that coined it. Marchantiophyta (talk) 02:49, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Another HC2/Innovate station with little notability to speak of, and seemingly no known programming that isn't carriage of national (or international, in the case of Multimedios Televisión) services. It's been tagged for notability issues since 2014, and while it technically survived an AfD earlier this year, said AfD was the failed bulk nomination of 140 HC2/Innovate stations. I can't see any indication that this comes anywhere near meeting the GNG. WCQuidditch☎✎01:46, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This should be kept, not necessarily as it's own article, but it's a major journal and the Associação Brasileira de Química is a major association. The ideal solution would be to have the article on the association, and merge the journal there. If that article isn't created, then this can be draftified until the ABQ article is created, and the merge can be performed at that time. Headbomb {t · c · p · b}12:38, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to Riyaz Khan#Early and personal life. Discounted the two IP keeps that geolocate to the same area as sockpuppet IPs of the checkuser-blocked article creator.

Fails WP:NACTOR. Is the main antagonist of Pencil and has no other notability. He was the winner of the reality show BB Jodigal but that doesn't add much. WP:TOOEARLY, please redirect to Pencil (film). He also played the lead in the 5 episode YouTube series Kaalam Neram Kadhal. Is that notable? I smell COI because the article said his unreleased film "received an average reception from critics". [23].

The term "direct care" could mean almost anything in the English language e.g. "I am taking direct care of my dog", "The painting was placed under direct care of the museum". With regards to its meaning in the NHS, I could only find a single reputable source here, and even so that does not justify an article.
Essentially this is an incredibly vague term, which perhaps has a specific niche meaning in the NHS, but certainly not enough to warrant an article.
The article is essentially saying "direct care is the direct care of a patient in the NHS".
Most of the rest is just tangential information about nursing, audit etc.
None of the cited sources are about the term itself.
Strong Keep -- The article clearly scopes the subject in the lede so the ambiguity discussed in the nom doesn't apply. There is strong, sustained, extensive discussion of this subject in journals [25], [26], [27], [28]. The article desperately needs editing and expansion, not deletion (WP:DINC). Cheers, Last1in (talk) 20:47, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep -- there are many uses of the term in the NHS itself[29], and beyond in the week before this deletion request[30],[31],[32],[33],[34],[]. If the proposer was a registered veterinarian, they could take direct care of their dog, otherwise you're just staff (although this applies more to cats). — Preceding unsigned comment added by SamSmithonWP (talk • contribs) 14:31, 28 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There are a total of 1,993 Canada Research Chairs. Some commenters opined in these AfDs that only tier 1 Canada Research Chairs should count towards WP:PROF#C5. See Canada Research Chair#Types of chairs: tier 1 chairs are for senior academics and constitute 38% of Canada Research Chairs.

Weak keep. He is an assistant professor and tier 2 CRC. Whatever one thinks about tier 1 CRCs, that definitely doesn't count for WP:PROF#C5, which is only for above-full-professor level appointments. That said, he seems to be the go-to expert on NETosis (two first-author papers with 4-digit citation counts on Google Scholar, seemingly the top-cited two works on that subject), so I think he passes WP:PROF#C1. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:08, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
weak keep. I agree with David, while a CRC Tier 2 is an early career award and does not count towards NPROF, I think with his strong expertise on a niche field, three publications with 1000+ citations each and a healthy h-index of 23, he passes the NPROF#1 -- not by much since he is still early career but there is enough for a pass. --hroest15:53, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I don't really see any reason to get in the way of a delete on this article, which is a one-sentence stub that would be eligible for G5 deletion if this AfD hadn't been opened instead. I realize that isn't exactly an argument for deletion, which is why this isn't a !vote, but I think it's context to keep in mind, given that no one has advanced a strong keep argument. -- asilvering (talk) 22:40, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It is incorrect that this article would be eligible for G5 deletion. G5 is only for articles created by already-indef-blocked (or banned) editors evading their block.

Fails WP:GNG as no WP:SIGCOV has been found in independent, reliable sources with in-depth discussion of this team. The article was created in 2016 as a micro-stub with no substantive content. More than seven years later, the only content that has been added is an unsourced schedule chart reciting that the team lost two games on unspecified dates and at unspecified locations. (As an additional nail in the coffin, it appears from this source that this was a season of association football (i.e., soccer) rather than gridiron football as the article asserts.)
