Article is a re-creation of a previous article deleted in June 2017. Still fails WP:N and subsequently WP:BIO. The references provided all rely on promotional interviews and cannot be considered as independent of the subject. As the CEO of Younan Properties, he should not inherit any notability solely from the business he owns and runs. Loopy30 (talk) 02:26, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Subject requests deletion per WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE in ticket:2025061110007843 VRT ticket. Identity has been verified. Sources are also too less for WP:NAUTHOR in any case. I think we can consider the subject's request for deletion, since they have not been highly covered in reliable independent sources. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 11:18, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Business person does business things. None of the refs provide WP:SIGCOV, subject fails WP:GNG. - UtherSRG (talk) 11:36, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your interest in this article, Anish Shah qualifies under WP:GNG, as he's the CEO of Mahindra group which is in India's top 25 companies. And he has significant coverage in reliable, independent sources as far as I researched after founding this article via Special:Random/Draft.
So I will improve this article asap to follow the Wikipedia:GNG completly. and kindly explain this- Business person does business things so I can know what wrong I did in this so I can improve that also. iVickyChoudhary (talk) 15:31, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@IVickyChoudhary: Being connected to a notable entity does not grant notability per WP:INHERIT. - UtherSRG (talk) 18:06, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I fully agree that notability is not inherited by association per Wikipedia:INHERIT. However, the argument for keeping this article is not based solely on Anish Shah’s role at Mahindra Group, but on his own notability, which is independently established through. Multiple reliable and independent sources that provide significant coverage of his leadership, strategic decisions, and business vision as Managing Director and CEO of Mahindra Group. Kindly search on Google about him. iVickyChoudhary (talk) 06:31, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
References say he's a businessperson doing business things. That's not SIGCOV. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:11, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate your review. While I understand the concern that "businessperson doing business things" doesn't automatically imply notability, I respectfully argue that Anish Shah meets the WP:SIGCOV, and WP:GNG.
He has received significant coverage in independent, reliable sources such as Forbes India, Economic Times, and Business Today, which profile his leadership, strategic direction, and impact at Mahindra Group. This coverage goes beyond routine job announcements, it reflects independent journalistic interest in Shah as an individual business leader, not merely in the company he leads. His coverage is not trivial, routine, or tied to a single event. I will continue to improve the article by adding more sources that fulfill WP:SIGCOV and will restructure the article to reflect their depth and focus. iVickyChoudhary (talk) 07:58, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NLIST and WP:GNG. We don't keep lists like this. Readers who may be interested in previous players can see historic players at List of Sharks (rugby union) players, transfer lists for URC and Super Rugby competitions and season pages. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 13:04, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not opposed to merging this with the List of Sharks (rugby union) players, subject to resolution of the distinction of Currie Cup vs URC players, as if those players - who meet notability requirements - are excluded then List of Sharks (rugby union) players is incomplete. Whybeetoo (talk) 11:04, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This would be dependent on the outcome of the discussion on the WikiProject. I'd be opposed to full squad boxes but if we can find information on Currie Cup players (which I found incredibly difficult in creating this list) then can be added in another section if consensus reached.

While I have no doubt in the reliability of references provided in the article, this subject does not look notable to me for several reasons. She has only been in office since January, with there being little coverage of her life and career, particularly because there does not seem to be significant coverage of that in reliable sources (as it can be seen, the references only briefly pass over what she has actually done in her life and instead concentrate on her political beliefs). As far as I'm aware, an official is not presumed to be notable only based on their political beliefs (most of this article is actually related to that instead of her short career). This then might be a case of WP:TOOSOON, where a politician could become notable in the future for their career accomplishments, and not instead of their political views. To close this off, there is coverage of this person in reliable sources independent of the subject but is this coverage "significant"? We could write a ton more articles like this where there's news coverage of someone's political beliefs, but little to none about what they have accomplished. I should also note that while the creator of this article has expanded several major articles to B-status which is sure appreciated, they were previously banned from creating articles in the mainspace and instead had to use the AfC system. This is one of the articles created since the ban expired in April. Vacant0 (talkcontribs) 15:02, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NGEO, non-notable village in Iran. JustARandomEditor123 (talk) 16:00, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The issue is currently being addressed. I'm trying to collect as much information possible to make sure it can considered notable.PAper GOL (talk) 17:33, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. The relevant criteria here are explained in WP:GEOLAND: Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low. Even abandoned places can be notable, because notability encompasses their entire history. It is a little concerning that a couple of the reference links appear to be broken but if it is in fact a populated, legally recognized place, the article will likely pass. Cielquiparle (talk) 05:27, 7 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Keep. A great part of articles are random villages. This is because the objective is to cover every village in the world. This should be kept no matter what. Earth605 (talk) 17:05, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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

Fails WP:GNG, and if you want to go further into subject-specific areas, WP:NSONG. Checking all of the sources in use in the article at the moment, none of them provide significant coverage regarding "BIG SHOT" itself, or are WP:VALNET sources - which cannot be used to establish notability. Some of the sources, like the GamesRadar+ and India Times cite, don't mention the song at all. A WP:BEFORE search doesn't turn up anything different, either - running the song through WP:VG/SE or WP:A/S's search engine doesn't turn up any substantial results, actually. Should be redirected back to Music of Deltarune#Deltarune Chapter 2 OST. λ NegativeMP1 01:44, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Attacks near Dobrosin (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)

Most of the article fails WP:V; the part dealing with the attacks themselves. The article states that "the LAPMB took control over Dobrosin, Lučane, Končulj, Mali Trnovac and Breznica, as well as 4 police stations", but the sources cited, BBC and Večernje novosti say nothing about that. The BBC source reports on a ceasefire and short summary of the events leading up to it, while the Večernje novosti article is from 2012 and reports the arrests of Albanians related to the war by Serbian authorities. They make no mention of three members of the MUP being killed and five wounded in the first ambush (the BBC does however confirm four casualties and several wounded in the presumably second attack mentioned in the article).

The article also says that "Special Police Units from Gornji Milanovac were forced to withdraw to Konculj, Lučane and Bujanovac" but the Yugoslav survey book has no page number or quote to verify, and the other citation is inaccessible. The rest of the paragraph is unsourced. Griboski (talk) 23:43, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

2025 Rhode Island Senate District 4 special election (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)

It's been my understanding that state legislative special elections in the U.S. are not inherently notable. See, for example, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2021 Oklahoma State Senate special election. I don't see anything in this article that would suggest this particular special election rises above any other of the dozens of other state legislative specials that happen every year. I'd support a redirect to 2025 United States state legislative elections#Rhode Island. BottleOfChocolateMilk (talk) 00:05, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
