This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to People. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

1. and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary, it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|People|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove links to other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to People.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Page created immediately following my draftification, no indication of notability for this BLP, page creator has declared a CoI with the subject of the article on his user page.

I'd like to imagine there's a better venue for this than AfD, but PROD won't work because the draftification was already objected to and it's not eligible for speedy deletion, at least as far as I know. Gracen (they/them) 22:14, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fairly unremarkable other than a few published papers on a largely niche topic (tornadoes/severe weather). By this stretch, every meteorologist (especially many professors in academia) who author papers should have Wikipedia articles, which isn't the case. United States Man (talk) 20:54, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People and Science. United States Man (talk) 20:54, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Several secondary reliable sources besides academic papers reference or interview/quote Anthony Lyza and his works, including the New York Times and many other articles: [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Clearly passes the bare minimum of WP:PROF and WP:BIO, especially since the US government even posted he is a tornado “expert”. WP:PROF says if a person passes any of the listed items, then they are notable. The first point of WP:PROF is “The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources.” That seems clear, given the tons of sources discussing Lyza and his work.

Fails WP:BIO. The interviews sourced in the article at present are by reliable sources, but this is arguably routine seasonal coverage.

My WP:BEFORE results in insufficient sources and especially WP:RELIABLESOURCES for this to pass WP:GNG.

• Delete. Perhaps there's an appropriate redirect or merge target. All the sources added today are not coverage about Shafrir, and there were no sources presented that demonstrate WP:SIGCOV of Shafrir himself to satisfy WP:NBIO. From looking through the sources, these are simply singular, mostly single-line mentions of Shafrir's appointment in 200+ page books. We've deleted based on far more coverage. Obvious WP:GNG fail.

• Keep I have added two links that provide basic biographical details; per WP:BASIC multiple sources can be combined in lieu of significant coverage. His involvement in the redistribution of Palestinian property is of historical interest and his work is well documented (e.g, in this encyclopedia entry which quotes his report at length. The fact that other deletions proceeded under supposedly analogous circumstances is a non sequitur. Oblivy (talk) 02:35, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  "...trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability" So then it must just then be proven that these are not routine coverage or passing mentions in order for WP:BASIC to qualify. Iljhgtn (talk) 14:53, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails the requirements of WP:ANYBIO / WP:MUSICBIO. Lacks significant coverage of the individual in multiple reliable sources. Apart from the Sunday Observer article, the others are just mentions in passing. It has also been extensively edited by, what appears to be, the individual the subject of the article - WP:SELFPROMOTION. Has been tagged as not meeting WP:GNG, since February 2016, without any substantive improvements to the referencing/sourcing. Dan arndt (talk) 07:39, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: In addition to the concerns about the possible autobiographical edits, 11 of the 16 sources appear to be dead links and bring up a 404 error when trying to access them. Based on the titles, these sources may follow a similar pattern described later. Most of the remaining ones are either plot summaries of a movie that lists the subject in the cast (source 8 for example) or articles discussing a movie and listing the subject as a music director (with no further mention or coverage of the subject), such as in sources 9 and 10. The first links that appear when doing a search of the subject include profiles on Facebook and YouTube, his official site, and a few other similar articles similarly providing a passing mention but not significant coverage of him (such as him performing at an event).

Delete and redirect, the article is written from a fan’s perspective, does not seem to fulfill WP:GNG, and is much better served as a redirect to the main article about the show itself.

• Keep – While the article needs improvements in sourcing and tone, I believe the subject is notable for his role as co-creator and host of the popular travel competition series *Jet Lag: The Game*, which has received Streamy and Webby Award recognition. This establishes some level of cultural significance. I encourage editors to improve the article with better sourcing and structure instead of deleting it. Per WP:BEFORE and WP:ATD, improvement should be considered before deletion.If anyone is able to help locate better sources or improve the tone and citation structure, that would be greatly appreciated. Erichbchk (talk) 19:21, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Erichbchk: Notability is not inherited and Google News seems to not have any WP:SIGCOV coverage for him.

@Erichbchk: Surely you can see how if his only claim to notability is because of the notable game he co-created, an article should be written on the game instead of the person?

There’s zero coverage of him as a person in secondary sources. ApexParagon (talk) 21:18, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Jet Lag: The Game. Obviously does not meet GNG since all of the sources are self-published or primary ones connected to the subject, and a large amount of the info is unsourced. And I can’t find any reliable source talk about him outside the context of the game.

Article has been created by the subject in WP:AUTO violation, and does not appear to meet notability criteria under WP:N. All subsequent attempts to improve article with recent news coverage by other accounts has resulted in immediate reversion and somewhat disingenuous edit summaries to cover this. I acknowledge that most of this news coverage has been negative due to subject's terminally online behaviour and one must have regard for WP:BLP, but if this coverage cannot be included then I do not see what this article is for. I added a recent 2024 news story that received coverage in most British Jewish media outlets, and was reverted within six minutes despite the editor not using Wikipedia for anything other than gatekeeping this bio.

I am not convinced that subject is notable, but defer to consensus - if the article is retained then subject should be banned from editing it so a more comprehensive article can naturally develop. Dev920 23:31, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Most of this article is just Men.com releases video, generates controversy or fame. The article's citations are also generally unreliable and not independent of the subject.

• Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (web)#Criteria, which says:

  Keeping in mind that all articles must conform with the policy on verifiability to reliable sources, and that non-independent and self-published sources alone are not sufficient to establish notability; web-specific content may be notable based on meeting one of the following criteria:

  • The content has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself. This criterion includes reliable published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, magazine articles, books, television documentaries, websites, and published reports by consumer watchdog organizations except for media re-prints of press releases and advertising for the content or site or trivial coverage, such as a brief summary of the nature of the content or the publication of Internet addresses and site, newspaper articles that simply report the times at which such content is updated or made available, or the content descriptions in directories or online stores.

     The abstract notes: "The current study focuses on the early transitions of CockyBoys and Men.com from producing only gay pornographic videos with condoms to producing some videos without condoms. These transitions follow the normalization of pornography without condoms noted in the literature, and their recentness allows for a ‘real-time’ analysis of how the studios marketed the videos without condoms, as well as the initial media coverage and feedback from viewers. ... I addressed these topics using data from the websites for each studio, as well as posts on gay pornography blogs. I describe and compare the different strategies employed by each studio, as well as the generally positive feedback for both studios and the different number of videos without condoms produced by each. I also provide possible explanations for these differences."

     The book notes: "Men.com is the second most visited gay porn site in the world. Yet it actually consists of nine individual sites, each catering to a different niche. Among these is Super Gay Hero, which forms the case study here. Though inclusive of a range of parody texts-including parodies of Star Wars, Game of Thrones, Pirates of the Caribbean, and even the popular mobile game Pokémon Go-Super Gay Hero is, as its name suggests, especially keen on producing content parodying superhero ... Such high-end ambitions are not necessarily applicable to all gay porn superhero parody, but instead reflect Men.com's status as a popular (read: "mainstream") provider of gay porn. ... As I have observed elsewhere, Men.com's porn performers and stars are presented in a "rather monolithic" manner, conforming to "narrowly defined sex roles" and "privileged alignment of opposing positions (top/ bottom) and prototypes" that "connect action, power, and penetration with extraordinarily sized, masculine men." It is hardly surprising, therefore, that similar top/bottom dichotomies would be carried over into Men.com's parody texts, with the archetypal dominant-top construction generally reserved for the superheroes with the greatest perceivable masculine prowess. The carryover of such dichotomies suggests that Super Gay Hero replicates tried-and-tested gay porn conventions, rather than using parody to subvert them."

  There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Men.com to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

  Cunard (talk) 07:31, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  @Cunard 2 sources is not "enough coverage". Porn Studies specifically is dedicated to pornography. Of course it will cover men.com. Both websites have not received any news coverage. For the Book, I don't understand how that could be reliable or coverage by a notable source. Its literally a book that praises men.com for creating gay XXX parodies of films like Batman or Robinhood. DotesConks (talk) 22:37, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  CNN. The page should be rewritten, re-stubbed if you wish with the reliable sources alone, but the website is notable. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 00:21, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  @Tbhotch Please explain to me how 2 somewhat reliable sources justify the article being saved from deletion? I've watched many men.com videos and I don't see how its any different from any other gay porn site. DotesConks (talk) 01:07, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  What you see/watch in your personal time is up to you, and honestly I have no idea why it is relevant. CNN specifically is about the website's domain price purchase. Porn Journal is a specialized journal. Brennan's article qualifies as reception that any entertainment topic requires for a comprehensive article. I am not the one who has to "explain" anything. It is up to the deletion requester to explain why the page has to be deleted. Your request reads "it is not notable under any criteria." By this, I assume you mean WP:WEBCRIT: "The content has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself." Three sources exist at least. And, two: "The website or content (bold mine) has won a well-known and independent award from either a publication or organization". The films, i.e., the content, has indeed received notable, well-known and independent awards, at least 5 GayVN Awards. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 01:23, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  @Tbhotch But keyword: trivial. For both awards and sources, the sources are generally not notable in it of themselves and are also already searching and ranking for pornographic content, so it was an inevitably that it would be rated. DotesConks (talk) 02:05, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Now if there was a source that was not primarily pornographic focused that covered it and wasn't just a random blog post or forum then I would have not nominated it for AFD. But in my time searching for Men.com sources, they almost always are pornographic forums, blog posts, or the sources you have described above. DotesConks (talk) 02:08, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  "The sources are generally not notable". CNN is notable, so is Porn Journal, and of course they are not trivial. The GayVN Awards are not trivial either. I'm already cleaning up the article with relevant sources so it doesn't look like the article was written by Zach from Str8UpGayPorn. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 02:23, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  @Tbhotch Except the CNN article is literally just "Man sells men.com domain" and doesn't even name Aylo. It does not talk about the content on the site and was part of a more global coverage of the .com web domain. Porn Journal is notable but its trivial because its... a porn journal. It was an inevitably that Porn Journal would cover men.com, a gay porn site. DotesConks (talk) 02:52, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  I don't know how Aylo is relevant in a 2003 article. I'm not going to reply further. I'm working on this already and I also decided that the article should be kept. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 04:06, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. This is a young professor who has just gotten an under-40 years old award. The "extensive coverage" of his work is the newspaper reports generated from a single University of Cambridge press release. He appears to have only that single paper in Google scholar, which has mixed him up with a Canadian business professor. It is too soon for him to have an article. StarryGrandma (talk) 18:59, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Do Not Delete:.

• Dr Macdonald has multiple publications: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-3880-6563
• His coverage was not the result of a ‘single University press release’ – it was the featured research story on the University homepage – and independently of that, it was covered by BBC, ITV, etc.
• He clearly passes the criteria for WP:PROF (of which you only need to meet one):

1. The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline: His recent article is “in the top 5% of all research outputs scored by Altmetric”.

2. The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level: His research won the National Innovation Award, the Digital Health Award, and the 40 Under 40 Award.

3. The person has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association: Dr Macdonald is a Fellow at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of the Institute of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability

7. The person has had a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity: His research has appeared in over 100 international news outlets. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JayneDavis07 (talk • contribs)

JayneDavis07, our criteria can be confusing for a new editor. Most researchers have multiple publications. What matters is not how many they have published but how other researchers have responded to those publications by citing them in their own papers. That is how we determine significant impact. Most awards, and definitely not young investigator awards, are not what we mean by "highly prestigious". Having newspapers cover ones research when publicized by their employer is common and not considered "substantial impact". "Fellow" is a term used in many different ways. In Macdonald's case the first Fellow is one of the terms used by Cambridge for their employees, so does not qualify. The second Fellow is just the name of the level of dues paying member of the ICRS, not an honorary award given for major contributions to a field. Macdonald is a promising researcher, and may well qualify according to WP:NPROF in the future, but not now. StarryGrandma (talk) 23:23, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

For the impact of his publications see here. He has only been publishing for a few years. We would need to see over a hundred citations per paper for impact, but he is just starting out so hasn't had time to develop. He does have 14 papers in Google Scholar, but his latest one is linked to another author. StarryGrandma (talk) 23:39, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Do not delete:

Fellow in the Cambridge system is not merely a term for employees. Fellows are voted in by the Governing body and are special honours for “distinguished, learned, or skilled individuals in academia, medicine, research, and industry.” There are different types of Fellowship at Cambridge (Visiting Fellow, Research Fellow, Fellow Commoner, Bye-Fellow, etc) – Dr Macdonald holds a full unrestricted permanent Fellowship and as a result is a full voting member of the Governing Body of the University – the highest honour.

Under the criteria for WP:PROF, Academics only need to meet one of 8 conditions.

1. The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level.

With regard to condition 1 – Dr Macdonald won the 40 Under 40 Award in the Science category. The award has two rounds of voting – the first is an expert panel, the second is a public vote – the award programme is at the national level and is for the nation’s most influential and accomplished leaders.

7. The person has had a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity.

With regard to condition 7 – Dr Macdonald developed and launched a virtual reality public speaking platform to help individuals overcome speech anxiety. He made the platform fully open access, and it is used by people around the world. It is a first-of-its-kind platform – the only to be free and accessible on all platforms and operating systems. Accordingly, it received widespread global media attention - it was covered in over 100 media outlets - including The Times, The Guardian, ITV, BBC, etc, etc. This is outside of a conventional academics remit.

It makes the academic “significant, interesting, or unusual enough to be worthy of notice”.— Preceding unsigned comment added by JayneDavis07 (talk • contribs)

WhoIsCentreLeft Two Questions. One, isn't this just a guidline? It does say on Wikipedia:Notability These guidelines only outline how suitable a topic is for its own article or list. They do notlimit the content of an article or list, though notability is commonly used as an inclusion criterion for lists (for example for listing out a school's alumni). For Wikipedia's policies regarding content, see Neutral point of view, Verifiability, No original research, What Wikipedia is not, and Biographies of living persons. Second, how does it decrease the quality of Wikipedia? Servite et contribuere (talk) 19:29, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment This is difficult to assess. Three dates are given for his death, and it's not clear why or how the Catholic Encyclopedia (1913) determines that 1239 is correct, rather than 1339 or 1439. However, notability would seem to be determined by how much coverage there is in each of the sources used by the Catholic Encyclopaedia, and how reliable those sources are. The questions about the biographical claims suggest that they are not very reliable. @Charles Matthews:, it sounds as if you have been able to access the original sources - would you be able to clarify how much coverage there is in each source? Also, as a matter of interest, are the works he wrote extant, or just reported in these sources? (My searches led me to sources about a Richard Wilton who was a Benedictine monk at Glastonbury Abbey and studied at Leuven. [25] This seems to have been during the time when Robert Stillington was Bishop of Bath and Wells, in the second half of the 15th century. That Richard Wilton apparently failed to pass on information about a plot against the king in 1500 [26], so he doesn't actually fit with even the latest date for this Richard Wilton. I didn't find anything about this Richard Wilton, though I'm probably not looking in the right places.) RebeccaGreen (talk) 14:49, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Keep

  The article on Vijay Nahar should be retained. There is sufficient coverage in a wide range of independent and reliable sources, satisfying Wikipedia’s General Notability Guideline for authors, historians, and public figures. His work spans historical biographies, political commentary, and education-focused literature. Below is a list of significant sources that discuss his contributions:

  === Media & News Coverage: ===

  • Sunday Guardian
  • Times of India
  • Lokmat Times
  • Dainik Bhaskar

  • Punjab Kesari

  • Jagran Josh Book List
  • Amazon – Book 1
  • Amazon – Book 2

  ----These references clearly demonstrate both the coverage and influence of Vijay Nahar’s work. While the Wikipedia article might benefit from improvements in structure, formatting, and inline citations, the subject himself meets Wikipedia's notability threshold. Therefore, the article should be improved, not dele Gujjar.rudraa (talk) 19:52, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Almost all sources are not about this subject. Some are about maharana Pratap, or other are about modi or vasundra raje, also the #2 TOI article is a reliable source but that talks more about the book written by him. And please remind that online listing of books for purchase like Amazon doesn’t confer notability. TheSlumPanda (talk) 04:30, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Vijay Nahar is an Indian author and historian known for his biographical and historical works on notable Indian political figures and Rajput kings. His book Swarnim Bharat ke Swapndrishtha Narendra Modi has been referenced in multiple media outlets, including The Sunday Guardian, for its early commentary on Narendra Modi’s developmental vision and personal life aspects, including his marriage, which was highlighted during political discourse (The Sunday Guardian, Amar Ujala).

  Nahar’s biography of Vasundhara Raje, Vasundhara Raje aur Viksit Rajasthan, is among the first dedicated publications on her political career and is noted in news profiles (Jansatta). His contributions to historical research include books on Samrat Bhoj Parmar, Mihir Bhoj, and Rao Akheraj Songara, which have been cited in literary platforms such as Sahitya Kunj and Sahitya Nama, and are among the few comprehensive modern works available on these historical figures (Sahitya Kunj, Udaipur Kiran).

  In the context of Maharana Pratap, Nahar's writings have been used in regional discourse to support the view that Pratap was born in Pali, Rajasthan—challenging the traditionally cited location of Kumbhalgarh attributed to Colonel Tod (Bhaskar, Samvad). His contributions have also been recognized through awards and coverage in local media outlets, emphasizing his role in historical interpretation and education.

  While online listings like Amazon do not independently confer notability, they help identify the range and accessibility of his publications. Furthermore, his books have been featured in school libraries in Rajasthan, according to a report by The Times of India (TOI). Gujjar.rudraa (talk) 03:49, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  His book on narendra modi got media coverage like 1, 2. While the sunday guardian have only passing mention at last which is not enough. But if we talk about notability of this subject them i am still inclined toward deletion because of lack of Significant coverage about him in independent sources rather than sticking only on his modi book.TheSlumPanda (talk) 05:18, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Most of the sources cited to support the notability of Vijay Nahar are from Hindi-language newspapers and online publications. However, these are established and widely circulated media outlets in India, such as Dainik Bhaskar, Amar Ujala, Rajasthan Patrika, Punjab Kesari, Jansatta, and the Hindi edition of Times of India. These outlets are considered reliable sources under Wikipedia guidelines for regional and vernacular coverage.

  The references include interviews, book reviews, coverage of public recognitions and awards, listings of published works, and inclusion of his books in institutional libraries. Several sources document his contributions as a biographer of public figures like Narendra Modi, Vasundhara Raje, and Maharana Pratap. Many of these sources offer English summaries or have accessible translations. Gujjar.rudraa (talk) 14:49, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak delete per WP:TNT To explain, Ponnar and Shankar are two twin brothers who are the subject of a Tamil epic poem, and this folk story is actually what the article is attempting to refer to. It should be named something like Ponnar Shankar (poem), or perhaps as the Tamil language article calls it, "Annamar Sami Kathai". The poem is the inspiration for the film Ponnar Shankar (film). It actually seems like the poem might be notable as there is a book by Brenda Beck just about the epic. However, the article as it stands literally links exclusively to sources which discuss the film - the few I looked at do not even include a passing mention the poem which inspired it. Very much open to a keep on WP:HEY grounds, I just unfortunately do not have time to salvage the article. Flip^andFlopped ツ 00:53, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ethno-political Conflict in Pakistan states that Nauroz Khan escaped from British captivity twice in 1926 and 1927 - unfortunately the page with the footnote to this info is not included in the preview.

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

I have conducted a WP:BEFORE search to assess the notability of this article. I searched in Google, Naver News, and English-language Korean news sources including The Korea Herald, Yonhap News, and KBS World using both English ("Cho Hee-soo rhythmic gymnast") and Korean ("조희수 리듬체조") keywords.

The only results available are routine coverage from sports result listings and minor announcements in domestic outlets. There are no significant independent sources that offer in-depth coverage or analysis of the subject.

According to WP:NSPORTS (Wikipedia:Notability for sportspeople), an athlete is presumed notable if they have "received significant coverage in multiple, reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." Cho Hee-soo has not met this threshold. The article does not demonstrate lasting impact or significant coverage beyond simple event participation.

Therefore, I believe this article does not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline (WP:GNG) nor the specific guideline for athletes (WP:NSPORTS) and should be deleted. Jeong seolah (talk) 06:10, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Zuck28 (talk) 14:23, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Notability is not established per WP:NACTOR, WP:MUSICBIO nor WP:GNG. The sourcing consists of standard PR type promo that one would see for any emerging actor with a press agent, including Forbes, which is not significant coverage, it's simply a photo of her with a caption mentioning her name, thus trivial. The Forbes "profile" link above is more standard PR written by "Forbes Staff", (it does not even have a by-line). I agree with the nom that this is a case of WP:TOOSOON.

Fails GNG. I can't find any coverage except for 1988 article in LA Times. Article is completely promotional and was created by banned user. —Kaliforniyka^Hi! 20:15, 23 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keep. While most of the sources (both in the article and in a quick google search) are pretty low quality, I've found a couple that I think are usable for notability purposes. Mr Feel Good Academy of Fashion Arts and Sciences Ageist, and LA Style. He was also quoted in a 1994 issue of Cosmopolitan[47] but I am not sure if that article provided substantial coverage. His heyday as an agent appears to have been in pre- and early internet days so more sources may be available offline. Article should be trimmed and rewritten to avoid promotion and unsourced detail but I think there is some substance behind the glitz. Eluchil404 (talk) 23:01, 30 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep I'm not knowledgeable about fashion, but a quick online search shows a few different profiles that indicate notability as Eluchil404 listed. Article does need a significant rewrite to meet quality standards though.

• Delete Not really encylopedic. Article here since 2016. With such poor sourcing after this time, it means not even editors seem to care about the subject. Ramos1990 (talk) 00:31, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Comment: See WP:SURMOUNTABLE and WP:NOEFFORT in particular - deletion is a question of subject notability, not article quality. Anerdw (talk) 15:39, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. The article reads as if it was made by an AI. Very biased and poorly sourced

Lol, the article literally misspells Alberto's name Thegoofhere (talk) 20:14, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No it doesn't. The sources I list in my comment above show that the, unusual, spelling Albertto is correct. Even if you find the sources insufficient to support notability, you should read them before opining on an article. Eluchil404 (talk) 21:48, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I just saw the IMDB page and assumed that's how his name was spelt. Sorry. Thegoofhere (talk) 22:58, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Fails WP:GNG. Gheus (talk) 07:45, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep or redirect to High places in cyberspace. I have found three reviews of his book High places in cyberspace: in the Journal of Near Eastern Studies [48], in Semeia : an Experimental Journal for Biblical Studies [49] (p 166), and in the Journal of Feminist Studies in Religion [50]. So it looks as though the book is notable, per WP:NBOOK. We could either write an article about the book, or keep the article about him, adding references including the book reviews. There are certainly newspaper articles which verify that he worked as a defence lawyer, which don't contribute to notability but would probably be better sources than a law report. I haven't yet found secondary sources about his work with OASIS or ISO standards. RebeccaGreen (talk) 12:42, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  We could move the current article to the book title, to maintain history, and make the article about the book, which per your sourcing looks notable. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 20:51, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment @Onel5969:: I would have no objection to moving the current title to the book title, but I personally do not have either the time or interest to write an article about the book. RebeccaGreen (talk) 16:44, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect or move as suggested. Bearian (talk) 17:48, 5 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per WP:NAUTHOR / WP:NBOOK based on the book reviews found by RebeccaGreen, and no objection to a move to the book title following the AfD. A redirect would also be fine if someone does decide to create a separate article about the book prior to this AfD's closure. MCE89 (talk) 11:14, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Not notable and poorly sourced article. May be better to rework this in draftsapce if it can be salvaged. Ramos1990 (talk) 03:40, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, the Ars Technica source is a green reliable source and should be sufficient for this article to be kept. There is a self source which would not be enough, and then there are a few others, but with the green reliable source and others, on net, this article is a Keep in my evaluation.

Relisting comment: This is a deletion discussion about a person, and yet so far the discussion has not come to a consensus about this person, and has instead determined that a book they wrote - which does not currently have an article - is notable (noting here that the arguments for keeping that have been presented are all about the book, and do not establish notability for the author). The AfD closer cannot be responsible for implementing such a reframing, and it isn't reasonable to move what is patently a biography to a title about a book without reframing. As such, this currently looks like a "delete" outcome - I'm relisting for one more week in the hope that someone will do something to avoid such a closure.

My !vote was not considering notability from the perspective of WP:NBOOK but if anything WP:AUTHOR, the BLPs consensus is leaning if anything towards a Keep if I were to look at it again. Iljhgtn (talk) 19:15, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. As I said in my !vote, the book reviews are enough to establish notability under WP:NBOOK or under WP:NAUTHOR (specifically criteria 3, which says that an individual who created a significant and notable work can themselves be considered notable). With authors who have written a single notable book, it's obviously a common outcome to prefer having an article about the book rather than about the author, since having both is typically redundant. But the sources that establish WP:NBOOK notability here also establish WP:NAUTHOR notability, and as the nominator here said themselves, there is value to retaining the article history. So I don't see any reason why we shouldn't keep this article on the basis of WP:NAUTHOR, and a discussion can be had outside of AfD about whether or not to reframe it to be about the book.
