Features of the Marvel Universe

Features of the Marvel Universe (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)

This is a place where a bunch of non-notable Marvel Universe topics "went to die" :/ Effectively a gigantic list of stuff (places, organizations, objects, and, uh, cosmic forces...), haphazardly collected and organized. There is no need for this effectively list of all in-universe concepts related to Marvel Universe to exist, it's pure WP:FANCRUFT, failing WP:GNG and WP:NLIST (too broad, pointless). This could be at best WP:ATD-Redirected to Marvel Universe, on the off-chance something here would be useful to merge there (but it's just a plot summary of niche concepts, so I doubt its needed). PS. Note we only have four "Features of" articles on Wikipedia. Those include: Features of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (sigh), Features of Spider-Man media and a bit different but still likely needing to go, Features of the Opera web browser; expect to see them all AfD shortly...).

Far cry from recognition or popculture significance of a Batmobile. Reception is a compilation of listicles and nothing but. All else is plot summary and a list of appearances. Fails WP:GNG and my BEFORE fails to find anything useful. Per WP:ATD-R, can be soft deleted by redirecting to Fantastic Four (comic book) or such. Not sure if the reception is due to merging there, however... (there is also Features of the Marvel Universe#Vehicles but that article has major issues of its own...)

Non-notable figure skater. Fails WP:NSKATE; no international senior-level medals, no national championships wins. On-line searches yield nothing beyond databases, scores, or a passing mention in articles detailing her previous skating partner, who went on to have more success than she did.

General notability guideline(/WP:BASIC) -- lack of secondary/independent sources + no significant coverage. Doesn't appear to meet notability guidelines for academics either. Comment(s) on talk page show that verification of any information is an ongoing issue. Tagged for peacock, advert, and tone since Feb 2010. I tried to fix the issues prior to filing this AfD.

  • Weak keep The four sources added by pburka show just enough coverage in reliable, secondary sources. RebeccaGreen (talk) 12:55, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete It is true that there are some book reviews, but I don't find that be sufficient to support an article about an author. There is one rather gossipy review in the SF Examiner; a single paragraph in Publishers' Weekly; a single page in Library journal. The Key West Journal and Communities also provide gossipy reviews, and neither is what I would consider to be a major publication of book reviews. Most of what is in the article about the person is from a non-independent source. Lamona (talk) 03:05, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Zulkarnain Saer Khan

[edit]
Zulkarnain Saer Khan (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)

The individual Zulkarnain Saer Khan partook in the orchestration of a dossier denominated All the Prime Minister's Men. Consequent to the helping of this dossier, he was the recipient of a commendation entitled the Global Shining Light Awards. The Global Shining Light Awards is bereft of eminence or substantial prestige in any capacity. The mere attainment of the Global Shining Light Awards does not fullfill the criteria of notability (person), as the dossier All the Prime Minister's Men itself fails to consummately fulfill the stringent prerequisites of notability.

Furthermore, the article is an absolute dearth of elucidation absent his academic credentials. Additionally, the article harbors superfluous and extraneous verbiage, including allusions to assailments perpetrated against his brother. Hydronex (talk) 20:21, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

"The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews."
But no other work by the individual in the article can be found apart from All the Prime Minister's Men, and All the Prime Minister's Men is neither a significant nor a well-known work. This means the individual does not fulfill point three of Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative_professionals. Hydronex (talk) 17:42, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: All the Prime Minister's Men is definitely a well-known work. It got wide coverage in Bangladeshi and some international media apart from Al Jazeera Media.[1][2][3][4][5] [6] Al Jazeera also won the top prize for "Best Human Rights Journalism" (investigation category) in the 8th annual Amnesty Media award for 'All the Prime Minister's Men'.[7] Niasoh ❯❯❯ Wanna chat? 09:17, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Notable journalist in Bangladesh. He is widely recognized for impactful investigative work with Al Jazeera and OCCRP. His contributions, media coverage, and awards meet Wikipedia’s notability criteria WP:NJOURNALIST.

@Koshuri Sultan, He hasn’t asked for any support in his favour. He has just asked me to take a look. Maybe because this article is related to Bangladesh. [8] — Cerium4B—Talk? • 14:10, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: It is the responsibility of those who vote keep to provide a solid argument. Nothing can be gained from canvassed or paid votes. The article is highly promotional and lacks neutral tone. It overemphasizes achievements while downplaying controversies, making it more like a PR piece than an encyclopedic entry. The subject fails WP:NBLP, as most coverage comes from sympathetic or affiliated sources rather than independent, in-depth analysis. NXcrypto Message 04:34, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Eason Chan's FEAR and DREAMS World Tour

[edit]
Eason Chan's FEAR and DREAMS World Tour (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)

Article about a concert tour, not properly referenced as passing WP:NTOUR. As always, concert tours are not automatically entitled to their own Wikipedia articles just because they happened -- in the exact words of NTOUR, what is required is that the sources "show notability in terms of artistic approach, financial success, relationship to audience, or other such terms", while "sources that merely establish that a tour happened are not sufficient to demonstrate notability."
But as usual for bad articles about concert tours, this is just "tour happened, so here are the set list and the venues, the end", with absolutely none of the content about any noteworthy cultural, creative or social context that NTOUR requires, and it's "referenced" entirely to a single Instagram post rather than any GNG-worthy reliable sourcing. Bearcat (talk) 15:39, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Music and Hong Kong. Bearcat (talk) 15:39, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I doubt whether a BEFORE was actually conducted prior to this nomination, as the corresponding article on zhwiki [zh] already has 19 sources, all except the first and last of which are news articles from reputable media like Ming Pao[9], Hong Kong Economic Times[10], HK01[11], Oriental Daily News[12], Sing Tao Daily[13], and Ta Kung Pao[14], indicating that there are plenty of accessible sources available. From a quick Google search, I found many sources not only from Hong Kong, but also from Taiwan[15][16][17], China[18][19][20] Singapore[21][22][23], Malaysia[24][25][26], and Thailand[27]. There are also concert reviews, such as from The Straits Times[28] and HK01[29]. I agree with the nom that the current article is in poor shape, containing no sources aside from an Instagram post and consisting solely of a rundown and tour dates. However, AFD is not cleanup. The nom's concerns should be addressed by adding a {{more citations needed}} template instead of directly sending it to AFD. (especially considering that the article was created yesterday by a relatively new editor, there is a greater chance that the page creator is unfamiliar with Wikipedia's citation policies rather than the subject being non-notable.) —Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 16:16, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Not appreciating the attack here against Bearcat (who is one of our most prolific AfD nominators and can do BEFORE in their sleep, literally), and there's just one source in this article, followed by a no context list of venues and an untranslated track list. This is a very, very poor article titled completely wrong and promotional, and Eason Chan#Tours is also very poorly written. At the very minimum we need a proper translation of the song list and many more sources. I also don't think this is the article creator's first rodeo as they know at the very least how to create bulleted lists and grids, so the 'first article give them a chance' argument doesn't hold water for me. Nate • (chatter) 18:09, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oh, I appreciate Bearcat's hard work at AFD as well, and I certainly did not intend to attack him. However, I think it is quite obvious that a BEFORE is indeed missing prior to this discussion, especially considering there are literally 17 sources sitting in the Chinese version of the article. A quick search I did also revealed numerous sources in both Chinese and English, and I have only listed a couple of the strongest ones (like concert reviews and foreign media coverage) above, which is already more than enough for a GNG pass. Nate, deletion is not cleanup, and AFD has nothing to do with incorrect title format and poor article quality. We are discussing notability here, and sources not yet included in an article should also be considered. Please review the sources I provided here or on zhwiki before you !vote delete, and it would be even better if you could also do a cursory search, given the absence of a BEFORE in this discussion (especially since I literally found several dozen of them during my search). —Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 18:35, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Events-related deletion discussions. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 20:24, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep It is my fault that the initial article was not well presented. I've been enhancing the article's quality and adding more sources and citations to demonstrate that the FEAR and DREAMS World Tour deserves its own article. Woodikiw (talk) 06:55, 6 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewed all sources and what I found are press releases, primary sources and passing mentions of the company. As of the time of nomination, sources number one to 8 are mostly press releases, and from number 9 to 19 are mostly primary sources. The few ones that look reliable are not enough to meet WP:GNG or WP:NBASIC. Mekomo (talk) 08:19, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Subject does not meet ANYBIO as far as I can tell. From a music standpoint, subject's songs have not been featured in any SIGCOV I can find. There is also routine coverage of middle school and high school theater performances from over a decade ago, but I don't see it rising to level of notability.

Sources are unreliable, and the reviews added to the reception section are the same reviews published twice by both websites, failing NFILM. Additionally, I doubt their reliability. The source BMDB is entirely unreliable as it is a blog website. GrabUp - Talk 08:29, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep it because, recently, a video clip "Chacha, Bari Ghor Eto Shajano Keno? Ar Hena Kothay?" (translate:Uncle, why the house so decorated? and where's Hena?" And and the title song of this film "Premer Somadhi Venge" are widely viral on social media. The film also remade in India's Bengali language film industry Tollywood in 1997 as Bakul Priya. Recently, i edited in this article and removed the unreliable sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Meghna Jamila (talk • contribs) 17:27, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
