Comment There are some articles coming up in Google Scholar which mention this Zbigniew Bąk (I think, although his father had the same name ....), so it would probably be possible to add more sources. For someone living in the 15th century, we do seem to know quite a lot about him. RebeccaGreen (talk) 14:53, 9 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: the Polish Wikipedia uses this ref:

Google search also turned out typical business and map listings.

Do note that there's an existing institution in UAE that has a similar name so expect false positives.

I've also checked the reference in the article which only gives a passing mention of the institution.

Keep While there are only a few sources, they are notable and this person did have a formal, long, and notable soccer career. More sources would bolster inclusion but I think overall, this is notable enough to keep. Gjb0zWxOb (talk) 16:40, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep should be on wikipedia notable sources found.Sync! (talk)
Delete Articles from two local newspapers do not come close to demonstrating notability. The two Kitsap Sun articles are about this local Kitsap player getting try outs. That is news reporting of the tryout, which is primary news reporting. Note that we don't even know from this if he succeeded. Presumably not, because if he had, where is the coverage on that? Any use of those in the article would require SYNTHesis from primary sources. Primary sources do not count towards notability. What about the Ventura County Star? Well this is not about his football career at all. Indeed, it seems the career has been abandoned because he has gone into business and he is donating soccer balls to youth teams. That report is clearly not independent. Abravanel's company is drumming up interest by donating soccer balls to local kids, and the local paper runs the story. Good marketing, but it is not notable. There is nothing here from which an article can be written. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 08:08, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- This source from 2011 mentions the tryout. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 16:53, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  Thanks. But still a local news report and primary. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 17:30, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Just because some (non-trivial, but rather primary) sourcing exists does not mean we have to have an article, and the fact that coverage of this subject has essentially nothing to do with why he's supposed to be notable (actually playing professional football) is evidence this coverage is non-encyclopedic. NOPAGE applies here. JoelleJay (talk) 16:10, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. This guy, strictly speaking, meets the GNG. The sources aren't perfect, but I'm not a huge fan of writing off so much otherwise decent coverage as "local". Toadspike [Talk] 10:48, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Elise Allen

AfDs for this article:

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

Not convinced this person is notable. Yes she wrote a "New York Times bestseller", but even for that the primary reason it was a bestseller was because she coauthored it with Hilary Duff, and it seems likely many people bought it because they were fans of Duff – essentially ghostwriting in the open. She created some children's TV shows – even if those shows are notable, I don't think that necessarily makes her notable by extension. Note this article was already deleted per Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Elise_Allen in Feb 2020 but then recreated roughly 10 months later – and I'm not sure if anything had really changed between its deletion and its recreation.

Pope Bob

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

I think this should be redirected to Leo XIV as the primary topic. The current pope is regularly referred to as "Pope Bob" by media outlets, and thus readers searching that name are most likely to be looking for Leo XIV at present. voorts (talk/contributions) 00:06, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect Seems to be a fairly clean case of WP:PTOPIC. Most mentions of "Pope Bob" are referring to Leo XIV. Nahida 🌷 00:23, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment This was also a (slightly ironic) nickname for Robert G. Ingersoll. [2] I'm too tired to add add it to the article/dab, but with three potential subjects, we're looking more at moving than redirecting, right? GreenLipstickLesbian 💌🦋 00:27, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Added to article and page. Thanks for the cite. I agree. Move first to Pope Bob (disambiguation) and then redirect. voorts (talk/contributions) 00:53, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep disamb., "Pope Bob" has redirected to Robert Anton Wilson since November 2019. Not many views, but a long-time nickname for Wilson both among the subgenius and, mainly, the Discordians. If redirected to Leo XIV a hatnote to Wilson seems an option. Randy Kryn (talk) 02:42, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: as disambiguation. This is just WP:RECENTISM; there are reliably attested sources indicating this nickname applies to other individuals. If in several months' time, "Pope Bob" is indelibly associated with Leo XIV, then we can reconsider, but not now. Dclemens1971 (talk) 04:53, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as disambiguation (and not a redirect), per reasons listed by User:Randy Kryn above. It's a term that can refer to any of the three, and has been used to refer to any of the three, and keeping it as a disambiguation page feels like the safest bet for now.

I don't see any sources that discuss these lines as a group, beyond an LTA map (ref 3), so WP:NLIST is not met. I am also very concerned by the huge amount of content – most of the sources are news articles, which cannot possibly verify all of these details (though I haven't checked all of them. S5A-0043, you contested the PROD, do you have an opinion here? Toadspike [Talk] 14:46, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The reason why I removed the PROD is because I felt it is possible to challenge the PROD and thus make it controversial. The first two sentences in the original PROD can be countered with WP:AFDNOTCLEANUP, and there may be an argument that redirecting/merging to other articles (such as redirecting to Transport in Singapore) is a viable WP:ATD (though I hadn’t thought over how to best execute this exactly). I don’t really have a strong personal opinion on this matter, but the reasons I could think of not deleting makes me think that an AFD is a better venue to decide the article’s fate rather than a direct PROD.
