Professor Hershel Layton[edit]

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

I tried to do WP:BEFORE, but it seems like this is the only sigcov [1] for this character. Meanwhile, others were just from game reviews with the same name, including the current sources used in the receptions section. Unfortunately, we need more to pass WP:GNG threshold. 🥒Greenish Pickle!🥒 (🔔) 02:51, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I almost immediately found this source talking about Layton's name being an unusual one for a protagonist, the use of his name as a title (which they identified as a relative rarity in modern games), and how he differs from a typical protagonist. This doesn't fulfill WP:THREE, but just from that quick search and the source provided, I strongly believe that any deeper search would come up with more. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 03:04, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Guatemalan Dogo[edit]

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

Only managed to find trivial mentions of the breed being included in lists of banned breeds, I did ask on Wikiproject Guatemala about possible Spanish sources but I've realised that the project is quite inactive. I'm hoping someone familiar with Spanish will be able to confirm if general notability is met with Spanish sources or not. If notability cannot be established I'm in favour of a redirect to list of dog breeds Traumnovelle (talk) 02:47, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2017 Hayatabad suicide bombing[edit]

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

The 2 sources provided are from time of event. No lasting coverage or impact to meet WP:EVENT. LibStar (talk) 00:19, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Events, Terrorism, and Pakistan. LibStar (talk) 00:19, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge/basically redirect to Terrorist incidents in Pakistan in 2017, Pakistan has a lot of terrorism and is hard to search for sources for so if there are actually later sources in Urdu I would not oppose it being an article again someday (but I highly doubt that is the case). PARAKANYAA (talk) 02:04, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support merge, searching for the events bring up other similar events before it. Traumnovelle (talk) 02:39, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Liuba Dragomir[edit]

School of Computing and Information Sciences, Saint Louis University, Baguio[edit]

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

Non-notable subject. May need to be redirected to Saint Louis University (Philippines). Sanglahi86 (talk) 01:24, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bill Cahan[edit]

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

Fails WP:ARCHITECT and WP:BASIC. The two external links are broken/outdated. No inline citations to any claims. Article is written like a resume. Edit history indicates COI. News search/scholar is minimal. Recommend delete. -- Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 01:03, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Architecture and California. Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 01:03, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Definitely fails WP:ARCHITECT and WP:BASIC. No sourcing whatsoever. Does indeed read like a resume, but in an unfocused way. Just a rambling stream of what this individual did with their various interests. — Maile (talk) 02:32, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nkosana Makate[edit]

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

Product of WP:BLP1E. Yes, the subject has been making the news in the past few months but this is all just 15 minutes of fame. WP:ATD, a redirect to Vodacom#"Please Call Me" would make sense. dxneo (talk) 00:07, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Businesspeople, Technology, Africa, and South Africa. dxneo (talk) 00:07, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Singapore at the 2026 Asian Games[edit]

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

Delete per WP:TOOSOON. It's still too early for this article to exist. Created by the same user who created Vietnam at the 2026 Asian Games which I also nominated for deletion. CycloneYoris ^talk! 00:00, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sports and Singapore. CycloneYoris ^talk! 00:00, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Files[edit]

File:WildlifeBlueHeronUtah.jpg[edit]

Incorrectly tagged with {{PD-USGov}}. Actually a work of the Utah DMV. https://dmv.utah.gov/plates says "Copyright © 2024 State of Utah - All rights reserved." See also https://copyright.lib.harvard.edu/states/utah/ ⟲ Three Sixty! ^Talk? _Work. 00:38, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Categories[edit]

NEW NOMINATIONS[edit]

Category:American people of Zimbabwean descent by occupation[edit]

Propose merging Category:American people of Zimbabwean descent by occupation to Category:American people of Zimbabwean descent

Nominator's rationale: There's no need to diffuse this category by occupation, when there is only one occupation in it Mason (talk) 03:08, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Ethnic Hungarian politicians outside Hungary[edit]

Propose renaming Category:Ethnic Hungarian politicians outside Hungary to Category:Politicians of Hungarian descent

Nominator's rationale: borderline C2C based on the parent category of People of Hungarian descent and sibling Sportspeople of Hungarian descent‎ Mason (talk) 02:58, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Asian American billionaires[edit]

Propose deleting Category:Asian American billionaires (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Nominator's rationale: As per the closure of Category:American Jewish billionaires recently, this also appears to be a case of WP:OCEGRS and was created by the same editor. Hilariously, it includes Richard Yuengling Jr., who'd surely be surprised at this revelation of his heritage. Chubbles (talk) 02:15, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Assassinated Iranian Kurdish dissidents[edit]

Propose merging Category:Assassinated Iranian Kurdish dissidents to Category:Assassinated dissidents and Category:Assassinated Iranian people and Category:Iranian dissidents and Category:Iranian Kurdish people and Category:Assassinated Kurdish people

Nominator's rationale: Non-defining 4x intersection of ethnicity, political orientation, nationality, and cause of death. This definitely doesn't meet the criteria under WP:EGRS Mason (talk) 00:14, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support, if only because Category:Assassinated Iranian dissidents doesn't currently exist. AHI-3000 (talk) 02:56, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects[edit]

Colonial haiti[edit]

Colonial haiti → Saint-Domingue (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Delete. Grammatical errors. (Haiti warrants capitalization and there is currently no redirect for “Colonial Haiti”). Orphan. Serves no useful purpose. Obvious technical error in its creation. Creator is currently serving an indefinite ban. Savvyjack23 (talk) 02:35, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not useful, only has 255 pageviews per WMFcloud since it starting counting views back in 2015. CitationsFreak (talk) 02:44, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Side-dump condola[edit]

Side-dump condola → Gondola (rail)#Track ballast gondolas (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Not a likely typo (the correctly spelled phrase is side dump gondola which has existed as a redirect for a decade). Trainsandotherthings (talk) 02:28, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
