T. J. Jacob

No inherent notability in the highest position attained, deputy Inspector General. The police medal may add to notability but it appears to be only covered in primary sources. His swimming achievements do not meet WP:ATHLETE. LibStar (talk) 02:15, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Does not pass WP:NCORP or credibly indicate its importance. No secondary sources. Speedy deletion nomination contested by page creator. PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:30, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete and re-add tag. Article is clearly promotional and is elegible for deletion under G11. @PARAKANYAA: Article creators almost always complain about someone adding CSD tags to their articles, and this doesn't mean that we shouldn't tag them for deletion. CycloneYoris ^talk! 01:56, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@CycloneYoris I was more confused by their response that by requesting deletion I was covering up for some sort of grand mass surveillance scheme. PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:58, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nedd Brockmann

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

Contested redirect to List of people who have run across Australia, which is what it was originally created as. Sourcing present and via BEFORE does not establish notability for Brockmann as a businessman or athlete so bringing it here for discussion Star Mississippi 02:02, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that Nedd has notability for the charity work he is doing, the following article lists a number of his accomplishments over the last 2 years. https://www.foxsports.com.au/more-sports/its-just-pain-australian-cult-hero-nedd-brockmann-chases-1000mile-record-two-years-after-crosscountry-run/news-story/a2ab5b36dce447aa5fd3d3e42495fac0 He is currently attempting a 1000 Mile 10 day challenge that at the time of writing has raised over AU$800,000 https://www.neddsuncomfortablechallenge.com/donate?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaZp9BUhSfSoAwtHkA614j4edKE2jy3QNvWiBomLMEbQrUp4AaCubWFUu_U_aem_cGZvq4c65wTGynCbFYeQfQ Campbell.jr.Smith (talk) 07:13, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Brussels International Festival of Eroticism

Delete for lack of significant coverage and existing for 10 years as an unreferenced biographical article about a living person. I think Boleyn correctly nominated this article; the past AfD had minimal participation. I did a couple of Google searches and found scant support for notability: this interview, some self- or fan-created sources, Amazon, IMDB, etc. Bearian (talk) 10:05, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: Relisting. Already brought to AFD so not eligible for a Soft Deletion.

Stephen Harrison (author)

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

As much as I think Harrison's writing about Wikipedia is insightful, I simply don't think he passes WP:NJOURNALIST. He's not really been the subject of significant coverage. I don't think interviews or reviews of his books in student newspapers (Student Life) are sigcov. The Fix interview might be significant coverage, but I am unfamiliar with the publication. 1A is a podcast interview, which I don't think counts for notability. The Salon, Slate and HuffPost links are just to his journalism and obviously don't count. The New America link is the description of an event that Harrison was participating in, and I don't think its sigcov either. The WashU entry is a "look what one of our alumni is up to" post and therefore it's not independent or sigcov. The Yahoo interview is part of the Yahoo for Creators program, which has an unclear level of editorial control from Yahoo itself, and may be published with little editorial oversight like WP:FORBESCON, but I'm not sure, and I think its status as significant coverage is questionable.

Delete: I don't find much beyond articles he's penned. Seems notable, but I don't find any sourcing we can use. Article now is mostly sourced to author profiles. Oaktree b (talk) 01:21, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: With the publication of The Editors, Harrison satisfies #3 under creative professionals. I also just added two more sources, including an ABC affiliate WFAA and NBC Bay Area. 1A (radio program) is not a podcast, it's a radio program. - Wil540 art (talk) 02:38, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The Editors hasn't even received a proper book review by a professional outlet so I hardly see how it passes the part of #3 that says such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews. The book was notably also deleted when taken to AfD, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Editors (novel). I hardly see how being a guest on a radio or local television program is enough to pass GNG. Hemiauchenia (talk) 04:26, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you haven't looked at it already, something from [4] might be of use. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 08:53, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I mostly agree with Oaktree above. Simply having published a book is definitely not enough to meet point 3 of WP:NCREATIVE, especially when that book's coverage has been pretty minimal. Going through the article's sources - author pages don't establish anything, the Yahoo article is misleading as it's aggregated from a Substack, and I would not consider alumni magazines to be sufficiently WP:INDEPENDENT. There may eventually be enough coverage for an article on his book, but it doesn't seem like there's enough here for an article on him. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/him)^{Talk to Me!} 02:34, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Regrettably (I think he's one of best WP-journalists around) I can't disagree. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:12, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This [5] might be considered a partial GNG-point. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:37, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Draftify per WP:ATD as it's possibly just a bit WP:TOOSOON. Continue adding coverage to the article as it is published, such as book reviews and author profiles. If no one updates for six months, it will get deleted. But if sufficient sources are added, it can get moved back into mainspace. Cielquiparle (talk) 20:59, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting to see if there is additional support for Draftification since we have an editor willing to work on improving this article.

The Voice: Neon Dreams

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

Very limited coverage for an event that didn't even happen. Not exactly LASTING, is it? May not oppose a merger into The Voice (American TV series), but for an article that size I worry it may be undue to give it its own section, and I'm not sure where among the existing sections it would fit if anywhere.
