Joan_Murray_(art_historian) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The page was created by the subject, in an extremely self-laudatory tone that has since partially been repaired.

The sources are also extremely poor. The subject's coverage in the sources is either A. Not significant (i.e. the National Post article that literally just has a single line about her, the Macleans article that has merely 3 sentences about her book, or the Edmonton Journal article that reviews many books and only mentions Murray's books for a few paragraphs) B. Not reliable (not editorially neutral as in the example of the U of T award announcements) C. Not secondary (i.e. the multiple databases linked) D. Not independent of the subject (three of the sources are authored by the subject, including her personal website).

The only sources that remain are a couple of decades-old newspaper clippings that support only a few sentences of the article.

It is clear that there aren't sufficient sources to write a fleshed-out article about her, and the only reason the article exists at all is because it was created by the subject herself with virtually no sources. It is obvious that the article was written with first-hand knowledge, only for the sources to try and retroactively justify what was written, when in fact very little of what is written in the article is contained in the sources.

Based on this, I propose deletion of the article. Andrew6111 (talk) 18:57, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Biography of a person, not properly referenced as having any strong claim to passing Wikipedia inclusion criteria. As always, notability is not inherited, so people don't get Wikipedia articles just for being related to other people per se, and have to be the subject of a WP:GNG-worthy volume of reliable source coverage about them doing something noteworthy -- but being a family member of other people is the only notability claim on offer here, and the only footnote in the entire article is a genealogy of her husband on a Blogger blog, which is not a reliable or GNG-building source.
Simply having been married to somebody is not "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to have more substantive content, and better referencing for it, than this. Bearcat (talk) 17:29, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating per a request that I received by email by the subject of the article. We have here a local politician, mayor of a small town. He has received extensive coverage due to sexual assault allegations, and resigned under pressure. The coverage is basically a meet of the local politician wing of WP:NPOL, but there are surely some shades of WP:BLPGOSSIP and WP:BLP1E. I would be a weak keep in the absence of a request from the subject. We typically give a certain (small) amount of deference to the subjects of articles that request deletion, and this brings me to a weak delete. I do not think that an article on a short-time mayor of a small town is an essential article for Wikipedia, even in the presence of the allegations; while its presence is likely to take up a fair bit of editor time, without a corresponding payoff. (If kept, then I note that the "Accusations" section of the article could use a fair bit of streamlining per WP:PROSELINE.) Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:31, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No significant casualties, no WP:LASTING coverage. Wikipedia discourages articles based on WP:NOTNEWS and this is nothing more than that. Nxcrypto Message 14:34, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - article seems well sourced, and several sources are in the late 2010s, some 40 years after the conflict itself, making a nonsense of the “no lasting coverage” claim… it’s… difficult not to see this as politically based spamming since the last couple of nominations on Indian-Bangladeshi border skirmishes from this same editor are just cut and paste, and they have nominated other similar articles last week too… I’ll assume good faith though, and just say that I disagree that the article meets the criteria for deletion based on the merits.

I remain confused at how the three last-minute delete votes on the day this was set to close can claim a lack of “modern sources” when the Indian Foreign Policy book, for example, was first written in 2007, with the 7th edition being linked to being published in 2018. Add in the cut and paste nature of the original nomination and… as much as I hate to suggest everyone isn’t arguing in good faith, this feels like brigading?
Also…. I don’t think that’s how WP:NOTNEWS works? Given that this happened almost 50 years ago? Absurdum4242 (talk) 18:11, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Absurdum4242: Notwithstanding how other participants have phrased it, WP:LASTING refers to lasting effects, not lasting coverage. The single 75-word paragraph in the book is lasting coverage, and distinguishes this event from some discussed at AfD recently which have none, but that paragraph's conclusion is telling: "forces of the two countries clashed but the tension soon cooled down." Nothing significant happened. No one was killed, injured, or taken prisoner; no territory, booty, or reparations changed hands; no new method of determining the border was adopted; no treaty was signed. The event was not a precedent or catalyst for anything. There were no lasting effects. The paragraph in the book suggests that the event may be worth a paragraph in an article more broadly focused on Bangladesh-India border relations. It is not suitable for a stand alone article. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:55, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, so the correct WP would be WP:Continuedcoverge instead, where “ The duration of coverage is a strong indicator of whether an event has passing or lasting significance.”? Absurdum4242 (talk) 04:39, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and keep improving. Passes WP:NCORP and WP:GNG. As for the problems with WP:PROMO, it looks like a couple of editors have removed some of the puffery; more could be done but this can be done over the normal course of editing. Of the coverage already cited in the article, the best source is probably the Fortune India article titled "The Dairy Disruptors" which looks at Milky Mist's business alongside its competitors in the private dairy market, and examines the challenges they face in competing with the milk cooperatives. Turning to ProQuest, this 2024 Businessline article, "Inside Milky Mist's paneer revolution", takes an in-depth look at the company's business and quotes an independent analyst who points out the heavy debt that company is carrying, as well as risks including pricing pressures and variable raw material costs. Skipping over all the in-depth feature articles on Milky Mist that are gaga about the company, like "Milky Mist's winning formula to transform consumer behaviour" in The Economic Times, we can still find other independent reports about Milky Mist's activities, such as this 2018 article about the cooperative Amul, which was being audited after allegations of financial impropriety, including deals it cut with Milky Mist.

This article is another installment of a WP:WALLEDGARDEN on the Jhala family created by a now-blocked sockmaster. (See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Harpal Dev Makwana for an example of a deleted article in this set and Jhala (clan) for an appropriately sourced version not created by a sockmaster. The core sources for these articles are books of purported genealogy published by Jhala family descendants. This article takes a legendary genealogy and launders the sources to present it as history:

The first set of sources are the unreliable ones:

Meanwhile, the independent sources do not present any of this legendary genealogy.

Additional sources include WP:RAJ-era surveys of questionable reliability and WP:TRIVIALMENTIONS in a gazetteer.

In short, what WP:SIGCOV we have on the Jhala dynasty includes legend repeated by WP:SPS and WP:COI sources. The independent coverage, such as it is, does not establish facts about this dynasty as presented in the article. With an adequately sourced article on the Jhala (clan) I think the best approach to this compromised article is WP:TNT. Bottom line: Fails WP:V and WP:GNG for lack of SIGCOV in independent, reliable, secondary sources. Dclemens1971 (talk) 05:37, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Looking at the article page, it does not seem to contain any far-fetched claims except the Origin section which should be renamed to 'Origin legend' or clarified that it is a traditional legend.
Also, the argument for unreliabity of the source Genealogy, Archive, Image: Interpreting Dynastic History in Western India being that the co-author is a Jhala doesn't seem valid considering that there are probably a million of Jhala people and shouldn't make them ineligible to write on the subject. Both the authors are also scholars in anthropolgy with Jhala having served as the Professor of Anthropology at Temple University as per the linked press release.
I do believe more context can be added regarding the tradtional sources the authors have used. But deleting the article would be an extreme step. The subject is very much notable. Many later kingdoms, states and principalities claimed descent from the members of this dynasty. Thank you. Krayon95 (talk) 09:16, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The problem with Genealogy, Archive, Image isn’t only that it’s written by Jhalas. It’s that one of the authors claims to be the head of the dynasty (see link above) and the book is an effort to launder legends into a historical account. The other reliable sources to discuss the Jhalas do not do this, as I noted above. The appropriately sourced Jhala (clan) article covers this ground without retailing legends as facts.

  • Draftify As I stated before I did say I wanted to keep, considering Hydrangeans reasoning was valid enough. But now due to the comment from RangerBus the matter of WP:BLP1E is significant considering how her importance did rise up until the tournament.

2) As well as her https://2700chess.com/players/velpula_sarayu ratings in India (women) along with her global ranking for women and how she placed second in a competition beating everyone except a GM https://www.chess.com/news/view/indian-1800-rated-17-year-old-with-sensational-result 79lives (talk) 10:13, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. I did some more research out of the sources on the page and still I do not find her being notable as of yet. Per chess.com, the number one reliable website with all informations and ratings, the subject as of Oct 5, 2024, ranks #2297 in world ranking and #42 among under 20 aged ranking in India. She was rather unknown but became recognized by her performance at tournament Pontevedra Open in Spain in 2023. WP:BLP1E. Though she didn't win, she came in 2nd. But I do not see that she participated in same tournament again in 2024 or any other well known major national or international tournament where she got significant coverage. She doesn't hold the title of IM (International Master) or GM (Grand Master) like other under 20 aged players in India and world. Notability is a strong problem with this subject. Maybe it is too early. RangersRus (talk) 14:31, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I am changing my decision! I feel like now we should draftify considering the point for Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons, if she does come up in more tournaments and is considered better for her performance after a few of them then she can be put on an article perhaps.

The book's page should be deleted as it fails to meet the notability guidelines for books, which require significant, independent coverage. The primary reviews cited to establish the book's notability are compromised due to conflicts of interest: one reviewer, a former brand custodian of a NASSCOM-affiliated company, currently advises on brand reputation to various IT companies in India as declared in the review's byline and actively promotes this book across social media as a part of its portfolio work, while the other is openly declaring himself as a personal friend of the author in the byline, making both reviews biased and unreliable. Furthermore, the remaining coverage consists only of trivial mentions and promotional excerpts, lacking substantial, independent analysis. As such, the book does not meet the criteria for a standalone Wikipedia article. Charlie (talk) 04:38, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

According to Cerdeño and Ginsburg in 1988, the name Palaeotapirus was invalidated by Depéret in 1904 because the fossils were more closely related to those of Chasmotherium (not a tapirid), and he replaced the genus name for "Tapirus" helveticus with Paratapirus. While this should sound like an easy redirect, the issue is that there seems to be one later-described species Palaeotapirus xiejiaheensis that may still be pending a reassessment. Also, on a side note, "Palaeotapirus yagii" was reclassified to the new genus Plesiotapirus. Whether or not the page should be kept, renamed, or redirected on the basis of one species pending a reassessment is worth discussing. PrimalMustelid (talk) 00:17, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
