Table of polyhedron dihedral angles

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

Even though many sources support the angle of each polyhedron, I still have no clue what's the point of its existence. Dedhert.Jr (talk) 02:11, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Periodization of the Shang dynasty

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

Okay, could be off the mark here, but I am not seeing any in-depth coverage regarding this concept. Seems to be a bit of WP:OR and WP:SYNTH. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 15:18, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History and China. Shellwood (talk) 15:40, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: As discussed previously in places like Talk:Late Shang, there are different ways used by academic sources to periodize the Shang dynasty, which is itself a helpful and interesting topic. For example, many academic sources divide the main Shang period into 2 phases (Early Shang and Late Shang), whereas various other sources divide it into 3 phases (Early Shang, Middle Shang, and Late Shang), etc. Also, the article Late Shang is currently about “Late Shang” within a certain periodization method (starting from Wu Ding), but there are also different ways of understanding the term (e.g. starting from Pan Geng). The periodization of the Shang dynasty is often associated with Shang archaeology, which is itself an important topic. In any case, this general article (Periodization of the Shang dynasty) is used to explain such things as done in academic sources, although of course the article can be further expanded for even more detailed coverage. —Wengier (talk) 17:29, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – this is not OR or SYNTH. It is an important topic of scholarly discussion and a set of real archeological terms. See, for instance, this footnote and the many comments in WP:Featured article candidates/Guandimiao/archive1 around the use of "Anyang", "Erligang culture", "Late Shang" etc., like right under here. In fact, based on that discussion this article is evidently not complete. (Not sure if it would be appropriate to ping editors involved in that FAC for comment.) Toadspike [Talk] 12:18, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I realize we could use some sources. I did a Google Scholar search for '"late shang" definition'. The first three results discuss this topic in great depth: [1][2][3] Toadspike [Talk] 19:02, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Gormogon (Bones)

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

A minor character in the Bones TV series. BEFORE turns up only reviews of episodes he featured in and a few scarce interviews; there is nothing actually discussing the impact, reception, or anything of this character.

I've nominated this individual's nonprofit organization for AfD as well, however I think that the subject of this article itself is not notable either. I've searched the subject up - and it seems that a majority of the sources available are interviews (primary sources) or instances of WP:BLP1E (for their work with the Miracle Foundation, the nonprofit they started).

Keep meets WP:GNG: 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4. Other profiles that I'm not as sure about: [7], [8]. These all offer significant coverage in reliable sources. A career is not one event. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 08:16, 23 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete All of the sources tell the same "origin story" so we are lacking enough beyond that to for this to be about her. I understand why NOM is calling this blp1e, although I don't think that's quite correct. It's as if the article for Zuckerberg only had sources that talked about the invention of FB in his college dorm, and nothing after that. The potentially significant UBS source fails - the link is to a general page and I find nothing under her name. Lamona (talk) 03:02, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree with WP:BLP1E, and it seems that Caroline Boudreaux meets WP:NBASIC. What guideline are you referring to when you say the sources tell the same origin story? Hmr (talk) 04:38, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NBASIC asks for "multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other" ... I read that as saying that if they all have the same content, they are not intellectually independent. Also, none that I can find give much basic biographical information, nor information that covers the years that follow the founding of the organization (except two talks that aren't usable sources). I don't see that there is enough info for a stand-alone article. It may be possible to cover her in the article on the organization, if it meets basic. Lamona (talk) 16:56, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as sources provided by Eddie891 give WP:SIGCOV of the subject in reliable sources from different years (2007, 2015-16). They provide biographical details about the subject as well as information of the founding of the Miracle Foundation as well as details of how she advocates for orphans internationally.

Raina railway station

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

Can't find anything about this railway station in Pakistan. I did find an article about a railway station that happens to be called "Raina", but it is located in West Bengal (India), not Pakistan.

And I'm not entirely sure if that article is even reliable.

Legacy House

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

Alright -- the subject of this article fails WP:GNG, and notability for companies because of lack of WP:SIGCOV, and WP:SUSTAINED in WP:RS. There are lots of sources, but they are either WP:ROUTINE, very old announcements of the opening, or not independent. This article has serious NPOV issues to go along with that -- seems like advertising and promotion. This article doesn't belong on Wikipedia.

Båntjern

This is an article about a mountain lake in Norway -- fails notability guidelines, by virtue of being a random lake in Norway. There are 300,000 lakes in Norway. Besides that, most of the article fails WP:NOTPROMO, and WP:NOTGUIDE; it talks about the amenities of the lake, like hikes, grills, and a nearby campsite. Serious NPOV issues, doesn't belong on Wikipedia. Needless to say no WP:SIGCOV in WP:RS. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 00:40, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Finally, one of the sources seems to be a blog, and the other two aren't reliable sources. Not WP:SUSTAINED, fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:RS, and has serious NPOV issues.

Archangel from the Winter's End Chronicles

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

Lots of problems: first, subject fails WP:SIGCOV, WP:SUSTAINED, and WP:RS. One of the sources is "Nerdist," an unreliable source. Even if it was reliable, it's a piece about a kickstarter. The other source is a defunct self published site, and the last source is a niche magazine. It's also a human interest story. On to the most important part; the creator of the page seems to be affiliated with the subject, with the username matching the title and a COI message on the talk page. Fails WP:NOTPROMO, WP:COI, and finally, nobody wants to hear about your garage band. AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 00:24, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Arc Exploration

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

This article does not meet the general notability guideline, and does not meet the notability guidelines for companies. The claim to notability surrounds its involvement with human rights abuses, ending in deaths, in Indonesia. This breaks policy because just because the company was the subject of a (probably not) notable event, does not make it notable. No inherited notability. Next, This company does not have WP:SIGCOV that is WP:SUSTAINED, and the sources don't seem to be WP:RS, but I haven't done a deep dive. No other coverage besides this stuff, where it isn't the main story. This company isn't notable. More, the sources are also from 2011, pretty out of date.
