History of Chandigarh

This incomplete article is basically WP:SYNTH and WP:OR that theorizes a connection between modern Chandigarh and ancient Indian civilizations. ("The land...was probably a part of the Kuru Kingdom...") It existed for many years as a redirect, but was recently reverted. The article fails WP:GNG, both on inadequate sourcing and on WP:NOT, so a delete would be appropriate, but restoring a stable redirect to Chandigarh#History established through AfD consensus would be acceptable too.

@SpacedFarmer, This person seems to be a double champion in the second tier of British speedway racing, which I do not believe is comparably significant to something like Super GT or the British Superbike Championship. I have started a discussion at WT:MOTORSPORT about the notability of motorcycle speedway riders. Please also note that WP:NMOTORSPORT is intended more as a guideline for which articles should require a far more thorough WP:BEFORE search rather than an argument in-and-of itself for keeping or deleting an article.

Ivy Wolk

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

Given this article was recently proposed for deletion twice by User:BarntToust before those were contested by User:Mushy Yank on the basis of this being "not uncontroversial", I figured this ought to be formally discussed. This article was only created back in April and covers an actress who has only been featured in two WP:RECENT films (one released this year) and two recent television series. It fails the WP:GNG because most of the sources are primarily noting the actress was cast in the media mentioned (most of which are a client page and a social media post). The article fails to establish significant independent coverage of this subject herself aside from purely noting her roles and some brief trivia on a college. If anyone is interested in expanding upon the contents, I would suggest moving this to the draftspace (where it should have been started) to allow for further edits to be made to establish potential notability, especially as many of their roles are fairly recent or still upcoming.

Nominator's Comment: While this may not be particularly relevant to this discussion, I think it is worth noting that this article's subject apparently took issue with the prior deletion proposal (seen here and here), and based on the comments from an obsessed IP here, I think it is suffice to say that there is some bias that exists but ignores Wikipedia policy. I don't think this would have any impact on this outcome here, though including for transparency. Trailblazer101 (talk) 05:16, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. There's only one source that covers Wolk specifically - the Variety article. All other sources only have brief mentions, or don't mention Wolk at all.

Merge: to the Big Brother season? Seems to have survived long enough on the show, but I'm not sure they're notable outside of that context. Doesn't seem to meet musical notability requirements either. The Billboard review is fine, but it's used for musical notability, then we go onto the TV show sources; you have to pick one sort of notability, you can't stack them. Being almost notable as a DJ and almost notable as a TV personality don't add up to an article here. I'm not fussed if this gets !deleted either. Oaktree b (talk) 18:28, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Contrary to the claim that says that the logos are "discussed in articles as listed on this page", these former crests are not subject to sourced critical commentary in History of Swindon Town F.C., where they are used. In order to satisfy the contextual significance criterion, an additional non-free item must either "itself [be] the subject of sourced commentary in the article" or "where only by including such non-free content, can the reader identify an object, style, or behavior, that is a subject of discussion in the article", as "only a single item of non-free content meets" WP:NFCC#8.

Deadly embrace

Deadly embrace → Deadlock (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

From the history, it looks like this was in reference something Dijkstra said about deadlocks (the computer science topic), but this phrase isn't actually mentioned in the latter article, nor can I find any other coherent topic to redirect it to, so it doesn't make much sense.

If we delete it, lookups of "deadly embrace" will show something like this, which would probably be better than what is shown now.

No clue, as there is no reference anywhere in the paragraph where this is stated to be true.

Also removed the [totally unsourced] mention from Jerry Seinfeld (character)#Newman as well. The only context present there refers to an erroneous claim that it's "Jerry's trademark phrase", with no citation about a trademark. Beyond that, I'm highly doubtful that this list based on a seemingly subjective metric of "most popular" sitcom catchphrases of all time, would be anything of a reliable source to substantiate any mention. Newman's personality can be demonstrated totally well enough without it. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 17:54, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Jerry's trademark phrase" uses the figurative/colloquial meaning of trademark. It is not a legal assertion that Jerry uses the phrase to identify a particular company's product and differentiate it from other companies' products. SilverLocust 💬 05:36, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just looked at Wikiquote for a bit: Seems it's more focused on non-serial media, such as films, instead of reoccurring media, such as TV series. What I mean is if a quote is stated more than once in a media (such as multiple episodes in a series), it seems there is no clear target for the quote on Wiktionary.

that's from the 2005 movie that i keep trying to forget exists, but the name is not mentioned there, or in the current target, or anywhere on wikipedia. retarget there, delete and act like it never existed, or take some other option i failed to consider? i'm leaning towards deletion cogsan _{(nag me) (stalk me)} 13:23, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

that's a plot point since the first game, but there might also be other instances of the evil world known as h*ck deciding to attack mars that i'm forgetting. opinions on retargeting it to anything besides the series' article? cogsan _{(nag me) (stalk me)} 13:13, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Monsoon Revolution

Monsoon Revolution → Non-cooperation movement (2024) (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Non-cooperation movement (2024) is not known as "Monsoon Revolution". There is no source verify that. In that way, this redirect is WP:OR. Also Monsoon Revolution is the name of a book "Monsoon Revolution: Republicans, Sultans, and Empires in Oman, 1965-1976". Redirect this to the subject creates confusion. ~~It needs to be deleted.~~ Mehedi Abedin 04:49, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I found at least one source that is calling it "Monsoon Revolution". [6] Za-ari-masen (talk) 05:38, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The above source had been removed from the article. I also found the one I had originally heard this term used in [7] (just after the 4 minute mark in the audio) and added a note about the alternative name back to the intro of Non-cooperation movement (2024). Given that it has also been used for the Dhofar War (which is what the book is apparently about), perhaps this should be made into a disambiguation page between those two? -- Beland (talk) 06:47, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguate: There are only three hits for the name that pertain to the NCM in Bangladesh. The name is used for other events as well as mentioned above. PadFoot (talk) 07:01, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguate: In that case disambiguation is the better idea considering what Beland and PadFoot2008 said. Mehedi Abedin 07:16, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: It doesn't seem like this is the name that sticks. I did notice that an article was made entitled July 36 where it is said that that is what Bangladeshis calling the date of Sheikh Hasina's removal. I think we're seeing a scenario akin to the Revolution of Dignity in Ukraine. Image2012 (talk) 11:06, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They bite, they fight, they bite and bite and fight

They bite, they fight, they bite and bite and fight → Itchy & Scratchy & Marge (talk · links · history · stats) [ Closure: keep/retarget/delete ]

Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 November 30 § They fight, and bite. They fight, and bite, and fight. Fight, fight, fight. Bite, bite, bite. The Itchy & Scratchy Show! – delete

A replica redirect of an unmentioned lyric from the show in question. This lyric, which was not mentioned anywhere in December of last year, is still not mentioned anywhere. Speedy deletion via G12 was tossed as a possibility during the previous RfD: Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 November 30#They fight, and bite. They fight, and bite, and fight. Fight, fight, fight. Bite, bite, bite. The Itchy & Scratchy Show! but the target still provides zero context for this search term. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 16:33, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment this redirect is definitely not a G12 candidate. Thryduulf (talk) 18:15, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Tossed around for the previous redirect's RfD*; this is a different redirect than what was discussed then. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 18:21, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as ambiguous. "Itchy & Scratchy & Marge", I'm pretty certain, isn't the only The Simpsons episode to feature the Itchy & Scratchy theme; so does "The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show" (albeit in altered format). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 00:41, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alternatively, retarget to The Itchy & Scratchy Show, though this may be an implausible {{R from lyric}}. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 00:48, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not enough blue links to warrant a template. All the red links are not notable articles (we do not require separate team articles for this low coverage tournament) and 2 of the blue links are at AFD too. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:17, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Matthew 16 (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

There are already forward/backward navigational links in the infobox on Matthew 16, and the handful of other articles linked from this template are linked from appropriate places in that article. There apparently used to be a large number of articles on the verses of this chapter, but these are now redirects, so I think this template is no longer needed. -- Beland (talk) 03:15, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
