Wikipedia:Source assessment/SSSniperWolf
![]() | This is not a Wikipedia article: This is a workpage, a collection of material and work in progress that may or may not be incorporated into an article. It should not necessarily be considered factual or authoritative. |
SSSniperWolf now has an article.
This is an overview of sources for SSSniperwolf. (for anyone confused: the first two S stand for "sexysexy", no known affiliation with a certain paramilitary organisation, "SniperWolf" refers to the Metal Gear character of the same name)
As the discussion is all over the place, this page provides an overview of known sources (reliable or not) and whether that source may contribute to notability.
This table was *cough* borrowed from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SSSniperwolf (2nd nomination) by User:Siroxo and expanded.
Potentially contributes to notability
To be determined
Irrelevant
Maybe reliable, but most of them probably not. But none will add any value over the reliable sources already identified.

Rejected by User:Joe Roe for the following reason: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. Additional comment(s):
Comment: See also Wikipedia:SSSniperWolf sources overview, which has been compiled by a few editors during the most recent RfD. It might be useful for demonstrating notability on this draft. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 16:54, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
Comment: There is a broad consensus that SSSniperWolf does not currently meet Wikipedia's notability (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SSSniperWolf (5th nomination) for the latest of many discussions) and the repeated recreation of this article has proved disruptive enough that the title has been protected so that only administrators can create it. Given this history, any new draft needs to make a very compelling case that the available sourcing has substantially changed. I'm not seeing any evidence of that here.Volunteer time on this project is limited; please do not resubmit this draft until some time has passed and there are significant new sources to present. – Joe (talk) 15:50, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
Comment: I feel like this should go to WP:Deletion Review or something–this shouldn't be decided by one reviewer since there was so much deletion discussion on it. Ca talk to me! 01:25, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
Comment: The concerns brought up in the previous AfDs were mostly about sourcing and notability, so I think this draft should be fine as long as the references are solid. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 15:46, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
Comment: Just noting for the record that the 5th (!!) AfD on this closed as 'delete' less than two months ago. DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:56, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
