Lancaster Steiner School

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I have carried out WP:BEFORE for this primary school and added some references. There is very little secondary coverage, however, and all that I have found is local. Given the small size of the school, currently 13 pupils, I think it is unlikely that other coverage exists which would demonstrate its notability. I don't think it meets WP:GNG, WP:NCORP or WP:NSCHOOL. There was a discussion on the article's Talk page in 2012 about notability, which resulted in sources being added at that point.

Anglo-Baloch wars

This appears to be an inappropriate content fork of the First Anglo-Afghan War (and Siege of Kahun), the Second Anglo-Afghan War and Operations against the Marri and Khetran tribes for the three "wars" herein though there are also glaring inconsistencies such as a year of 1917 herein v 1918 for the operations and the one google scholar source for "Anglo-Baloch War of 1839" does not correspond with the date herein for the first war.

Survivalism in fiction

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Survival fiction is a notable topic, but it is just a redirect here. What we have here is a very poorly referenced indiscriminate laundry list of works that violates MOS:TRIVA, WP:IPC and WP:LISTN. WP:ATD-R suggests that for now, we could just redirect this to Survivalism#In_popular_culture and wait for someone to create this one day. PS. Given we live in the age of AI-aided listicle churnalism, I expect we could find sources to save this - but given abysmal referencing, WP:TNT is another salad letter consideration to keep in mind. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 06:30, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Chemxpert Database

Apparent WP:PROMO violation. Article contains no third-party sourcing at all; external links provide some third-party interviews but nothing independent of the subject. On running the usual searches, I have not been able to locate anything that is even minimally suggestive of independent coverage in reliable sources, on which an encyclopedic article could be based. So I'm not sure this even meets WP:V, let alone WP:GNG, let alone WP:NCORP.

Delete per nom. Pretty straightforward WP:NCORP fail. BD2412 T 02:01, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: It would be surprising, and a rather serious indictment of our current NCORP practice, if Iceland's sole private TV news provider failed to clear the bar. Here is an informative book passage about the company. Here is a chapter providing substantial information on the company in the context of a general analysis of the Icelandic media system. (Both of the foregoing are in edited volumes published by the University of Gothenburg.) Competing outlets such as RÚV, MBL, and Viðskiptablaðið all have a considerable amount of reporting about the company, much of which seems quite substantial to me. (I will refrain, however, from attempting to anticipate whether the mere circumstance of actual independence from the article subject will be deemed sufficient for any of those articles to meet the circular requirements of WP:ORGIND.) -- Visviva (talk) 03:54, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Sorry if this sounds harsh but if search for sources for Iceland's largest mass media company failed to actually find sources then there was something seriously wrong with that search and it should be redone. Alvaldi (talk) 07:05, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Beck (EP)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

EP has zero coverage found in a WP:BEFORE. As for the citations present, 2 are database sites (no notability inherited from them), and the third is basically a press release announcing the release. Other language pages do not have any citations other than databases either.

I had previously redirected the page, but it was reverted. Reason give for the reversal was "This is a release by a major artist and therefore notable. Changing it to a redirect broke a bunch of links includlng the Beck chronology." We know that notability isn't inherited, so it doesn't matter how famous Beck is, if this release cannot stand on its own then it does not need to exist and can be mentioned in the Beck article. As for the reason that redirecting it "broke links", that is not a reason for keeping an article. Links can be fixed. DonaldD23 talk to me 22:49, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 04:29, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm perfectly fine with it being redirected to Beck discography, but it was redirected to Beck (musician) which was very confusing and felt like an error. And yes, broken links can be fixed, but it's not nice to just casually break obvious ones.

Ixat totep (talk) 17:53, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As it might not be obvious to all, I'm the one who un-redirected it, so if that makes this a disputed deletion, I'm happy to un-dispute it as long as it goes to Beck discography and not Beck (musician). [EDIT: But now someone added much better and more notable citations so I think it should be kept]

Ixat totep (talk) 17:56, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You could have just fixed the redirect to go to the discography and not the musician, just saying. DonaldD23 talk to me 00:44, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Donaldd23 I honestly thought there would be a lot more about it to cite. It's mentioned in a bunch of places like it's an important release (or at least as important as other EPs that aren't in danger of deletion). I was surprised I couldn't find more - that's why I left the "notability guidelines" flag up. If we're going to do "you could have..."... Albums are always in chronology carousels, and it's obvious that redirecting one will completely mess up the carousel and make them impossible to use to navigate the discography properly. That's the other reason I un-deleted it. I was clicking through releases and found myself back on the artist page trying to figure out wtf happened and it ticked me off enough to not fully research the page. I wanted the chronology to work and found zero talk page discussion about deletion so it seemed strange. Ixat totep (talk) 18:39, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Donaldd23 I just went to look at the page to see what to move elsewhere and volunteer to sort it out, but it looks like someone came along and added a bunch of much better citations, including print sources. So now I'd say keep it. Ixat totep (talk) 00:04, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Argufying

Argufying → Argument (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Looking at wikt:argufy, this term has more to do with disputes and disagreements than a series of sentences, statements, or propositions some of which are called premises and one is the conclusion. But I can't find an appropriate place to retarget it – apparently, we don't have an article on the general concept of disputes. (Disagreement (epistemology) and Objection (argument) are far too specific and theoretical, Dissent is only about disputes against authority, and Controversy is about a broad public state of affairs.)

Template:Deprecated stub (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

No transclusions. There is limited discussion linking to this template, most of which is from 2010, when it was created. I don't know if it was ever used, or just transcluded in one place until recently, when it showed up on the unused template reports.

It may be redundant to {{Deprecated template}}.

If it is used only sometimes, it should have {{transclusionless}} added to its documentation, with an explanation. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:07, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not entirely redundant to {{Deprecated template}}. It's always substituted rather than transcluded, and is only used rarely. Not sure how many stub templates it currently (or ever) been used on, but deprecated stub templates are usually cleared quickly and either deleted or redirected. Don't think losing it will cause much problem. Originally it was made because a few parent stub types were regularly sorted out (e.g., {{geo-stub}} to all its by-country children), and someone who didn't know how stubbinng worked would nominate the emptied template for deletion. I think there are other templates that will stop that happening though. Grutness...wha? 04:53, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:CURRENTCENTURY (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

This could easily be manually updated by hand since centuries only change every 100 years, and I don't even think Wikipedia will last that long. If it somehow does the current century can easily be changed. TheWikipede^talk 16:57, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: This template appears to be useful from a programming clarity standpoint. This template appears to be used at {{Year category header/core}}. Using the template there makes it clear what the math is doing, in a situation where typing "21" might necessitate a hidden comment. – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:23, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Weak keep – it seems marginally more useful than {{CURRENTMILLENNIUM}} (which was deleted three years ago), since there's a nonzero chance that Wikipedia templates will still be around in some form in 75 years. As Jonesey said, it's also more self-documenting. As for "manually updating by hand", @MouseCursor:

Are you proposing to just edit the template to hard-code the current century? Then TfD isn't really the place to propose that. Start a discussion on its talk page, or be bold.
Are you proposing to subst and delete the template? Then it couldn't easily be changed anymore!

All edits are suppressed other than the most recent courtesy blank. The users who could access such suppressed edits could do so even if the page is deleted. No purpose, even historical, in keeping it on considering the information is not publicly accessible. Thebirdlover (talk) 02:33, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom since we're here, but this was WP:Ragpicking that did not need to be brought to MfD. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 03:09, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
