Before I edited this article, it linked to a youtube video, the artist’s website, a blog, and a place to order an album of his—all placed under the references section. The article exists in three other languages—commonplace for most older articles—and they all cite databases which sit in the authority control template on English Wikipedia, and are insufficient to make this article notable.

Personally, I'd characterize those as passing mentions, not WP:SIGCOV. --ZimZalaBim talk 18:46, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The discussion of the work in Pold & Anderson (2014) is 700 words. In Pold & Anderson 2018, the book version, it's across 5 pages (56-60). The section in Mancuso is 200 words and so, roughly, is Decker's. This is not what is meant by a "trivial mention." The target of WP:PASSING, which you linked, gives the example, "In high school, [Bill Clinton] was part of a jazz band called Three Blind Mice." Jahaza (talk) 20:33, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, but that appears to be an essay/chapter posted to an instutional repository, and yes, apparently included in an anthology. No indication of rigorous peer review or heavy citation. To me, that's not WP:SIGCOV. --ZimZalaBim talk 22:37, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The journal article is pretty clearly WP:SIGCOV, since it "addresses the topic directly and in detail." You're now arguing instead that it's not reliable, a different criteria (though you keep repeating "SIGCOV"), because it's published in an institutional repository. But, as I stated, it's a journal article. I linked to the institutional repository, because it's available there, but it was published in a journal as the repository itself says:
  • Pold, Søren Bro; Andersen, Christian Ulrik (2014). "Post-digital Books and Disruptive Literary Machines: Digital Literature Beyond the Gutenberg and Google Galaxies". Formules/Revue Des Creations Formelles. 18: 164–183. ISSN 1275-7713.
The table of contents is here[12] and if you click on the ISSN, you can see the libraries that have held the journal. The journal's executive director is (or was) Jean Jacques Thomas and there was an editorial board, etc. It looks like the journal went defunct after volume 21, since its web site hasn't been updated since 2018.[13]
The material was then republished in the anthology mentioned above as well as incorporated into
I don't think it's credible to argue that MIT Press doesn't have editorial review. "Heavy citation" of the secondary source isn't a requirement for something to be considered a reliable source or to count as commentary on an artwork for the purposes of establishing notability. --Jahaza (talk) 23:26, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I still don't think mention one journal article that happened to be included in an anthology rises to significant coverage, but alas. --ZimZalaBim talk 01:33, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What does that have to do with it? Academic journal articles are reliable sources, unless the journal itself is problematic. PARAKANYAA (talk) 02:46, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Because I think notability requires more than a single source (this article being republished in an anthology is still the same source essentially). Just being covered once doesn't make it notable. --ZimZalaBim talk 03:31, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I found three other different sources in addition to the three versions of Pold & Anderson. Jahaza (talk) 04:13, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The other sources are also clearly sigcov? PARAKANYAA (talk) 06:52, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi
    Tumbledry is a leading laudromat chain in India that opened and organized the commercial clothes cleaning market segment in the country. They have over 1200 stores in India and it is a feat in itself, considering that they are profitable and have been essentially bootstrapped. Their franchise model has benefitted many in India and a lot have also achieved profitability.
    The information of the content has been sourced from leading mainline publications in India and many articles cover the startup in depth. Please suggest the links that you feel are surface-level. I will do my best to find alternate links. If you feel any other improvements need to be made, please do mention. I will be happy to work on the content again.

  • Delete. Sources for this are plagued by WP:RSNOI problems, for example [16] which is obviously not independent. Profiles and inclusions on lists are generally no good for showing notability; a company has to become socially significant and therefore will receive in-depth, contextualized coverage in multiple WP:RS before a Wikipedia article is appropriate. FalconK (talk) 03:17, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi FalconK
    I can research and look for more reference links. I am not sure why Ref 1 is deemed 'obviously not independent', because I don't see a disclaimer or a similar suggestion there. What I am understanding is that profile-based articles should be ignored. Please correct me if I am wrong and also share guidance. Supriya.jain2511 (talk) 05:24, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • It's more nuanced than that, but it's quite rare for profiles in the business press to be useful in establishing notability because the business press is notorious for doing these profiles in exchange for cash or access, rather than as a result of genuine public interest in the subject. The source, Prime Insights Magazine, does not have a discernable editorial policy; we can't even tell if or how they fact-check; this makes the source unreliable. It does not have an ISSN. No databases seem to index it. The article has no byline. This all makes it seem somehow even less reliable than the sources mentioned as being suspect in WP:RSNOI. The article appears to rely, for all its information, on the subject itself and quotes from people closely associated with it (such as its founders); this makes it a dependent source. It describes the company in glowing superlatives, while doing little to contextualize the company, so it does little to establish notability. FalconK (talk) 06:54, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      Hi FalconK
      Thank you for the explanation. It was helpful. I also checked the ISSN and found that it doesn't exist. This is a new learning for me.
      I have removed this citation. Hope this helps. I am keen on retaining the page because of the credibility and authenticity of the business. I believe that 1200 stores across India is a significant and notable feat. Supriya.jain2511 (talk) 16:29, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:SERIESA, WP:NOTWEBHOST, and WP:RS. The page reads like a franchise agreement, not an encyclopedia article. We are not a web host. The sources are not reliable; trade magazines tend to publish verbatim information that is handed over to them. Again, the more of this type of page is further ammunition for the richest man in the world to persuade his on/off patron to destroy our business model. Bearian (talk) 22:41, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi Bearian
    This page is not a franchise agreement or being developed with ulterior motives. There is base for notability which lies in multiple facts, including:
    1. The business has attempted to organize the laundry operations segment in India. No other company has done that before Tumbledry.
    2. They have over 1200 franchisees in India.
    3. Their business model is unique and has helped entrepreneurs across India through its franchisee model.
    4. They have never raised external funding and have already reached breakeven point in revenue terms. A lot of startups end up taking funding for the sake of it. Also, it is unfair to claim that all content published by trade magazines is paid content. This is entirely baseless. I do not treat Wikipedia as a webhost. This is a grave misinterpretation that you are making and I would request you to refrain from making such suggestions. While I am happy to edit the article to ensure that it meets Wikipedia's guidelines, I would request you to share pointed suggestions for improvement.
    Supriya.jain2511 (talk) 10:05, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The fundamental issue here is that you are treating the existence of a Wikipedia article about this company as a reward that the company is entitled to for success, whereas a Wikipedia article comes subsequently to significant independent coverage in reliable third-party secondary sources, which generally happens as a result of social significance. Consider the difference between the best possible article that could ever be written about this company, and then contrast that with the articles that are already written about Nortel, Microsoft, or Ford Motor Company. FalconK (talk) 11:32, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi FalconK
    Thank you for the references. I checked the content and they are well written and sourced well. While I understand the difference, I would also like to share that Tumbledry is a much smaller company as compared to the likes of Nortel, Microsoft and others.
    Also, when I stated the points in my previous message, I wasn't suggesting that the page be created because the company is successful, but because it has significance. Some of the references like The Hindu, The Economic Times, SMEStreet Edit Desk, and CINET are valid and credible third-party platforms. I also referred to their ISSNs and WP:RSPSOURCES to crosscheck the authenticity. Supriya.jain2511 (talk) 09:14, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

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

On 14MAY2025, I PRODed this article with the following rationale: "Plainly fails WP:SIGCOV, as the MEMRI coverage only refers to it as one among many Syrian Turkmen Brigades, The New York Times only devotes a single sentence to remarking on the trend of naming after Ottoman rulers, and Bulbajer's guide on Google Docs is not a reliable source. The Institute for the Study of War is a generally reputable source, but its brief coverage is only cited to X/Twitter posts. Searches for additional sources did not yield significant coverage to merit an article separate from Syrian Turkmen Brigades and Sultan Murad Division." A. B. chose to redirect to Sultan Murad Division as a reasonable alternative to deletion and Durranistan changed the redirect to Syrian Turkmen Brigades, as this brigade is part of that grouping but left the Sultan Murad Division nine years ago. Today, article creator Farcazo reverted the change to a redirect, simply remarking "It's the thought of one user, not all of Wikipedia." in the edit summary. I support the latter redirect target, so per WP:ATD-R, I am proposing that here. ViridianPenguin🐧 (💬) 02:41, 11 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep You can't say that MEMRI and the Institute for the Study of War are not reliable sources, then that would destroy a large part of Gaza War and its related articles. I understand that The New York Times only dedicates one sentence and that Bulbajer's guide on Google Docs is not reliable, but there are more articles that talk more in depth about the militia, such as: Syrian Memory. Misbar, which is about the leader and the militia integrated into the transitional government and although if you notice the photo says "Sultan Mehmed" what happens is a bad translation of the militia
and to clarify, I didn't want my effort to go to waste because of someone and that they literally didn't read a single paragraph of the article and that they literally accuses me of bad faith is something reprehensible, and knowing, I can accept that it becomes a paragraph in Syrian Turkmen Brigades but that they literally waste it is wrong

I did not claim that MEMRI and the Institute of the Study of War are unreliable, only that their coverage of this brigade is insignificant and that in the latter case, the source regurgitates social media posts that would themselves be unreliable. Accusing me of not reading the article before PRODing is itself bad faith. I only meant to express that your reversion made no rebuttal of the PROD rationale for me to respond to in bringing the article to AfD.
As for the newly presented sources: 1) The Syrian Memory Institution link is a repository of villages and other brigades’ communication with this brigade, not a reliable source presenting significant coverage 2) The Misbar link returns a 404 error and has no Internet Archive backup 3) RDI’s one-paragraph listing of three women kidnapped by this brigade is not SIGCOV 4) The Suriye Gündemi article’s only mention of the brigade is listing it among many opposition groups involved in Operation Olive Branch, reinforcing the choice to redirect to a broader term 5) Per WP:MEDIUM, this self-published source is unreliable 6) Alexander McKeever’s Substack profile of the brigade is another self-published source. McKeever’s only publication is his master’s thesis, failing to qualify him as a subject-matter expert per WP:SPS 7) The French version of this article relies on many Twitter/X posts and sources that I am disputing the reliability of here.

I initially draftified this article, but reverted myself once I realized it is more than 90 days old. Based on the sources cited, the subject is not notable: refs 1, 2, 4, 5 are just quotes from him (not independent), while the other three are not significant coverage. My web search didn't find anything better.

Additionally, the references consistently fail to support the content they are cited for, e.g. ref 1 [23] makes no mention of "Plateau", ref 2 [24] is not about his education at all, ref 3 [25] doesn't mention Plateau, the FRCN, or the NTA. If editors find sufficient sources to deem the subject notable, I ask that the article still be draftified until it is completely rewritten using only information supported by reliable sources. Toadspike [Talk] 21:42, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The subject is clearly notable as per WP:NBASIC, as being a director general of Industrial Training Fund (which had significant critical reception) and also satisfies organizational notability under WP:ORG and WP:NORG. The article now contains multiple independent, reliable sources per WP:GNG, which support the content they are cited for (the main reason for sending it to AFD by toadspike). If there were concerns about sourcing, a maintenance tag under WP:VERIFY would have been more appropriate than AfD. Still, it's valid to seek wider input.

Promotional biography. Article author has moved this to mainspace after several declines at AFC, and has resisted re-drafticiation, so here we are at AFD.

I am convinced by the argument that the Guggenheim Fellowship is listed in WP:PROF#C2 as an example of an honor that passes that criterion, but also I think her citation record (discounting the consortium paper and instead focusing on first-author papers with 351, 196, 118 citations etc) is good enough for WP:PROF#C1, unsurprisingly for someone with a full professorship at a high-ranking research university. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:16, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Keep. Guggenheim Fellowship is explicit WP:PROF#C2 as is Overton Prize and (w/ admission of COI), Radcliffe Fellowship is also a WP:PROF#C2-level mid-career/later prize. Agreeing also with what Eppstein said about citation record for WP:PROF#C1 -- but noting that this community should be calibrating our idea of what's an obvious C1-citation-count pass based on what full profs at places like UCLA have, rather than vice-versa. -- Michael Scott Asato Cuthbert (talk) 13:58, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep – This article demonstrates WP:GNG through substantial independent coverage in reputable outlets and scholarly recognition of Li’s contributions to statistical genomics (e.g., groundbreaking work on single-cell RNA‐seq analysis). It is well‐sourced with reliable secondary references and documents her significant awards and appointments. Some minor clean-up is recommended: add citations for a few unsourced early‐life details and remove occasional promotional phrasing for a more neutral tone. --Mozzcircuit (talk) 07:40, 23 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as meets NPROF#2 for awards as noted previously by editors as well as NPROF#1 with h-index of 34 (Google Scholar) where she is either first or corresponding author on nine articles with 100 or more citations and 19 articles with 50 or more citations which likely lead to awards received.

A redirect that was recently undone. The relations are not subject to significant third party coverage. Source 1 is primary, source 2 doesn't even refer to NZ and source 3 is a failed verification, in any case the level of trade is minute. Fails GNG. LibStar (talk) 06:18, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!
I don't agree with proposal for deletion and think that article reaches the minimum for General Notability, especially with the additions and improvements that were made in the meantime.
I adressed some of concerns raised above (since I was the one who edited/created the article): I added verifiable source (source 3) on foreign trade; as for source 2 it doesn't refer to NZ but is needed since it explains the continuity of diplomatic relations regarding the issue of legal succession of the state with which the original diplomatic relations were established by New Zealand. Moreover I added section about political relations since it mentions the New Zealand's recognition of independence of Kosovo (territory claimed by Serbia) and high level visits - all referenced and sourced. Also expanded the Immigration from Serbia section with notable example of Marko Stamenić, New Zealander of ethnic Serb descent who is arguably most prolific NZ football player at the moment.
To conclude, I think article should be kept and give it some time to improve and expand.
Regards, Klačko (talk) 08:00, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep‎ and move to Killing of María José Estupiñán Sànchez, without prejudice against immediate renomination.

This person doesn't appear to be notable other than the WP:SINGLEEVENT of their death being covered news outlets at the time. No WP:SIGCOV prior to that indicating any inherent notability. The facts in the article are sourced, but only because of details of her life being reported in the stories about her death. The death itself has been covered in many sources, but I am unable to determine if all of these different citations are truly WP:SIGCOV or just outlets retelling basically the same story (syndicated, chasing clicks, etc?). I don't think our notability guidelines suggest that every killing that happens to make the papers the next day are notable. This only happened a few weeks ago so hard to establish any long-term impact. (see also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sabrina Duran) ZimZalaBim talk 14:44, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep or Rename Encyclopedic in the same way as Valeria Márquez. Encyclopedic as an emerging influencer, entrepreneur. The same sources on the latter's page (Valeria Márquez) were written after her death. María José Estupiñán Sànchez presents, as visible, a much broader entrepreneurial history than Marquez. A case of femicide that turned out to be very covered by the media in an international way, an emerging character like others before her who are present here on the platform.

This is no excuse to judge her more encyclopedic than Estupiñán. As you can see, María José's career is much more documented and longer than Marquez's and I don't think the fact that she died live makes her more encyclopedic than the other. María José's death was also partly caught on camera, but this reasoning and justification make no sense. MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 15:16, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm honestly having a hard time following your arguement, but please remember this isn't a comparative exercise. Either the article María José Estupiñán Sánchez meets our notability guilelines or it doesn't. --ZimZalaBim talk 15:49, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
And let me tell you that it follows all the rules. And also the reason why you asked for the deletion of the page makes no sense nor the justification you gave about being killed live. These are not valid reasons nor should they be taken into consideration. Marquez's being killed live does not detract from being killed, partially filmed by Estupiñán's cameras. That makes no sense and is not a justification. I believe that one is encyclopedic regardless of the way one is killed, and the fact that one girl was killed live is not a justification to diminish the encyclopedicity of the other, nor to justify that of the first. Instead of resorting to these page deletions, which somehow diminish the work of those who deal with these things, just insert a notice of "source needed" or look for these extra sources, avoiding resorting to these drastic and (at least on this page) very inappropriate and meaningless methods. MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 15:57, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@ZimZalaBim: I would suggest a title change as for Valeria Márquez's page, so "killing of María José Estupiñán Sànchez".
María José Estupiñán SànchezKilling of María José Estupiñán Sànchez. I quote your statement: Person is only notable as a result of their death and WP:BLP1E applies and so this also applies to this page.
MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 18:44, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reasons for this title change instead of unnecessary deletion of the page:
  • Valeria Márquez was a social media influencer, and entrepreneur. She collaborated with brands. I think you are wrong in stating that she is more encyclopedic because she died live.
  • María José Estupiñán Sànchez was a social media influencer at the same way, and entrepreneur. Unlike Marquez, he owned 3 businesses, not just 1. She also collaborated with brands as Marquez. Her death was partially filmed, since you apparently base your beliefs partly on this. The moment of death does not determine its encyclopedicity, but indeed Estupiñán's page is much more compact and with more information than Marquez's. Given the situation, a title change is fairer, as is being done with Marquez herself who is in the same situation as her, even if for her there was no talk of elimination, but of title change, which here was not even taken into consideration before asking for deletion, in fact not caring about the contributions of those who created the page in question, or this one. So I am for title change and not elimination. If you delete this, then you also delete that of Marquez, because they are in the same situation.
MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 12:47, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Given the situation of the page and the unwillingness to cooperate from those who asked for the deletion of the page, I ask for a WP:3O, so that it is visible to everyone that the page Valeria Márquez has nothing more than this one, and that the deletion is incorrect, and it would be fairer to change the title to "killing of María José Estupiñán Sànchez". Let's see what the difference between these two influences would be. Both entrepreneurs (she from three businesses, Marquez 1, both influencers, both content creators, both with ties to brands and promotions, both models and emerging artists. The only difference is that one died online in front of so many people, the other is partially dead in front of so many people, you can't see the exact moment. Thanks. - MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 19:16, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What you are suggesting here (seeking a third opinion) is inappropriate. This is an ongoing WP:AFD discussion that follows a particular process. I suggest you read through that page to get a better understanding. Further, this particular discussion is about the article María José Estupiñán Sánchez; discussion of other articles belong elsewhere. --ZimZalaBim talk 18:25, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note. Your motivation for deleting the article and the fact that you don't understand that there is no difference with the article on Marquez and the fact that you evidently don't care about contributing adequately are useless, inappropriate and futile reasons. The request for elimination itself is useless, it makes no sense to have proposed it when the article on Marquez is here. The fact that we have asked for a meaningless deletion when there is an IDENTICAL page is shameful. Unfortunately, I am forced to talk about Marquez because it is the only way to make people understand the uselessness of this discussion. MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 18:41, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I repeat, you submitted the request for elimination without considering anyone else and without thinking of less drastic solutions. This says a lot about respect for others. MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 18:42, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You need to WP:AGF, and don't tread into WP:NPA. --ZimZalaBim talk 18:45, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Before asking for deletion, it is checked. And the request is useless as long as there are articles like Marquez's. So yes, it is not a legitimate nor correct elimination. Name change is correct and your reasons are very unfollowable and arguable. MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 18:58, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma, nine (now) ten of your comments here have compared this article to the one about Marquez. Comments at AfD should address the article under discussion, not compare it to other articles. All that matters here is whether the Sanchez article meets our notability criteria. Whether the article is similar to Marquez's article is irrelevant. Perhaps the Marquez article should be deleted too. Continuing to harp on the Marquez article just weakens your case, as it may suggest to people evaluating this discussion that the article does not satisfy notability, and arguments based on analogy with other articles are all that you can come up with.
I would also agree with ZimZalaBim that your comments here are unnecessarily hostile and personalized. Discuss the article under discussion, and do not speculate on the motives of other editors. Everyone here is trying to improve the encyclopedia, even if they disagree with you. CodeTalker (talk) 19:11, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The user in question justifies the presence of one article on another without providing adequate explanations and without having consulted anyone.

MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 19:15, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
If I talk so much about Marquez, it is because the user in question justified the presence of her article by talking about the way she died.

Which you are evidently not able to follow given the inappropriate, useless request for deletion when you yourself justified the presence of Marquez's article as having been killed live, which is irrelevant.

Weak delete: this is clearly a BLP1E case. The subject has no notability apart from her murder. The murder itself has some coverage and may warrant an article, although only about 1/3 of the current article is about the murder so it would require some restructuring. Almost all of the sources are in Spanish which I am not qualified to evaluate, so I won't offer a firm opinion on whether an article about the murder is warranted. (Also two of the five English sources are unreliable.) CodeTalker (talk) 19:22, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@CodeTalker: I added some other English sources that I think are reliable and good. Obviously I didn't add all the sources, but internet is literally full of news regarding Estupiñán Sànchez.

  • Delete: per nom, this article is a clear case of WP:SINGLEEVENT. @MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma, I think we need to apply the Wikipedia: Avoid other stuff exists argument in this case. All the coverage seems to point to the subject's untimely death, and there's very little to establish notability prior to that event.--DesiMoore (talk) 15:56, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    And for this reason, like many other pages, it must be renamed under another title as happened to other pages, which had nothing of notoriety apart from death. Making comparisons is necessary, because this reasoning is not very correct: articles that arouse notoriety due to the death of a subject are many. And this is one of those cases. The biography of the subject may not have been treated before death, which is very common usually even for articles present here, but this does not diminish its value, when the person dies and his death generates notoriety. It's a normal thing. And it is normal and right that I cite other examples on this encyclopedia that are accepted and maintained in pages under titles such as "killing of...", because otherwise it would make no sense to discuss or even carry out this deletion procedure. Other users have reported the need to keep the page but change the title. Which is much more correct and respectful than an elimination that does not make much sense. MariaAmaliaduchessadiParma (talk) 16:26, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    "All the coverage seems to point to the subject's untimely death, and there's very little to establish notability prior to that event." I take this statement of yours into consideration. Very often notoriety is brought after death, although the person before it was not known exponentially. This does not change its encyclopedicity, if the tragic event for which the subject passed away is the reason for such encyclopedicity, and the same event generated a wave of protests in a state, generating indignation, international coverage from the most authoritative newspapers. Encyclopedicity is not dictated by what one necessarily does in life, but also by other factors, and among others, the Estupiñán Sànchez case, by death.

  • Keep and rename. Her murder seems notable and numerous reliable sources in various languages cover it (and some indicate she was a notable personality anyway). Wikipedia:Notability (events) states that to assess a page about an event "the impact, depth, duration, geographical scope, diversity and reliability of the coverage" are important factors. In terms of geographical scope (Brazil, France, US, UK, India, Pakistan, etc), diversity, reliability and depth of coverage, the existing sources seem to be enough to retain a page about her/her murder.--Artus Sauerfog Dark-Eon (talk) 23:56, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:GNG and WP:AUTHOR. No significant and reliable coverage of this author or the book mentioned in the article. Fancy Refrigerator (talk) 02:18, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Fancy Refrigerator:
Keep – I believe the article on Sabrina Lund should be kept. It meets the criteria under WP:AUTHOR and WP:GNG — she's a published novelist with real-world literary engagement and multiple independent sources discussing her work in depth.
There are three detailed reviews from reliable, editorially independent sources:
  • BookLife (via Publishers Weekly) called her novel "a thunderous crescendo and shocking ending," and praised the pacing and anticipation for future works.
  • Review Tales discussed deeper themes like power, corruption, and emotional realism: "The novel masterfully explores the complexity of power—how it can corrupt, liberate, or destroy."
  • Readers’ Favorite gave a strong endorsement too: "A must-read that oozes with romantic appeal... will, beyond all doubt, entice fans of historical and political thrillers."
On top of that, she’s been invited to speak at Portsmouth BookFest in 2026 and has a signing scheduled at Cobbett Road Library, part of Southampton Libraries, in summer 2025. Those are both independent, public literary events.
The article has been improved recently with clearer structure, citations, and a cleaned-up tone. It’s factual, neutral, and verifiable — and I think it clearly passes notability for a contemporary author.
Happy to help improve it further if needed, but I don't think deletion is the right call here.

Reviews are not considered reliable because they cannot be easily verified. And they definitely cannot count toward notability. Fancy Refrigerator (talk) 04:27, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Fancy Refrigerator:
Thanks for your feedback. I wanted to clarify an error and reinforce the basis for notability.
The citation for the BookLife review was mistakenly pointing to a Goodreads mirror. This has now been corrected — it links directly to the full editorial review hosted on BookLife.com, which is an editorial arm of Publishers Weekly. These reviews are professionally written and subject to editorial oversight. By Wikipedia standards, this qualifies as a reliable, independent source offering non-trivial coverage.
Per WP:AUTHOR, a writer is presumed notable if they receive multiple, independent reviews that go beyond trivial mention — especially from reliable sources. Between:
- The BookLife (Publishers Weekly) review
- The in-depth critique from Review Tales
- The full-length independent analysis from Readers’ Favorite
...there is substantial, critical third-party coverage of Sabrina Lund’s work.
In addition, she was featured on two independent UK radio stations — Awaaz FM and Fiesta FM — in publicly available interviews that discussed both her book and broader authorial perspective. These interviews offer additional evidence of notability and coverage by independent media.
Happy to keep improving the article if needed. But in its current form, I believe it clearly meets the criteria under WP:AUTHOR and WP:GNG.

The fact that the reviews are professionally written does not matter if the reviews are not neutral. Sources have to conform to the neutral point of view policy. The source you pointed out, BookLife.com [27], describes Sabrina Lund's book as follows: This is a rich depiction of the lives of 18th century England’s high society, as well as a thoughtful study on the hunger for power that drives many to destruction... This is not neutral writing. jeyranmain.com and readersfavorite.com suffer the same problem too. jeyranmain.com [28] describes the book as follows: Consequence of Power: Isabella’s Season by Sabrina Lund is a captivating historical fiction novel that immerses readers in the opulence and intrigue of 18th-century London... And readersfavorite.com [29] writes: This intriguing historical novel intertwines a beautiful tapestry of social interpretation, suspense, and romance. Sabrina Lund masterfully explores the intricacies of...
These claims of rich, captivating, intriguing writing are, one, not neutral, and, two, not verifiable. All together, these make the reviews unreliable sources to based Sabrina Lund's notability on. Fancy Refrigerator (talk) 10:22, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Why does a review have to be neutral if it's in a RS? Oaktree b (talk) 14:26, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Those reviews are being relied upon for GNG. The problem is that they are not written in manners that are easily verifiable, with the exception of the biographic excerpt in [30]. Fancy Refrigerator (talk) 00:08, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
They are not required to be verifiable; the statements that they support are. They are not required to be neutral; the statements that we write citing them are.

Comment: Reviews are mostly definitely valid sources - reviews are EXACTLY how we gauge whether a book is notable or not. See criteria 1 in Wikipedia:Notability_(books)Wikipedia:Notability_(books) - reviews are one of the sources mentioned. This doesn't include reviews on Amazon, Goodreads etc, but reviews in reliable sources. 79.161.174.95 (talk) 18:42, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It's the Wikipedia article that has to be neutral, not the sources. Reviews in reliable sources are allowed, see criteria 1 of Wikipedia:Notability_(books). 79.161.174.95 (talk) 18:44, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, based on dodgy sourcing, it is nothing but promotion for a non-notable author by a SPA with an undeclared COI. Googling "Sabrina Lund Michael Psaila" gives joint hits. Editor should be warned on top of the delete. Ostalgia (talk) 12:17, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Maybe one good review per the discussion above, but I don't see any others. Gscholar and Gnews are bring up nothing. Gsearch only brings up the various places to buy the books. I don't see author notability. Oaktree b (talk) 14:28, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: As others have brought up, I don't see notability really anywhere. The sources are primary and low quality (Facebook, her website, etc). Doing a search for her book (the primary focus in terms of her credibility) on DuckDuckGo only brought up 3 pages of purchase links. OnlyNanotalk 04:15, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Fails WP:AUTHOR because book does not have significant coverage in reliable independent sources. Reviews can in general definitely confirm notability (this is specified in WP:AUTHOR criteria 1), but in this case the reviews are in rather sketchy publications and they are very surface level and there are not many. The book was only published last year, so may be a case of WP:TOOSOON. Lijil (talk) 18:54, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
