Wikidata:Requests for deletions

Requests for deletions Items that do not meet Wikidata's notability policy can be deleted. Please nominate items for deletions on this page under the "Requests" section below. If it is obvious vandalism, just add the page here (gadget available), or ping an administrator to delete it. Contact can also be made with an administrator in #wikidataconnect. Please use {{Q+}} the first time you mention an item. Unless you use the gadget, please also ping the item's creator in your request (or ping the bot operator, when appropriate) if 1) the user is still active on Wikidata and 2) the user has contributed the majority of information in that item. Please use Wikidata:Properties for deletion if you want to nominate a property for deletion. Duplicate items should be merged, not deleted: see Help:Merge. Do not blank items in anticipation of deletion. In particular, do not remove sitelinks, even if you have requested deletion of the underlying project page or if you think that sitelinks of this type should not have Wikidata items. This is not the place to request undeletion. Please read Wikidata:Guide to requests for undeletion and either contact the deleting admin or use Wikidata:Administrators' noticeboard instead.

Q117844136

Archibald Olive (Q117844136): (1818-1903) husband of Mary Narcissus Spain: (delete | history | links | entity usage | logs)

Notability. Together with the two other members of his family. Emu (talk) 14:19, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

On hold This item is linked from 3 others. --DeltaBot (talk) 14:20, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

•  Keep "It refers to an instance of a clearly identifiable conceptual or material entity. The entity must be notable, in the sense that it can be described using serious and publicly available references." We don't use English Wikipedia notability, all meet the Wikidata notability standard. Findagrave and Familysearch are "serious and publicly available references." Any dead person that can be described by "serious and publicly available references." is welcome at Wikidata. Eventually all of Findagrave will be loaded. --RAN (talk) 22:28, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

  Well, that’s not exactly our current understanding of notability that we employ in practice. --Emu (talk) 13:34, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

  With accordance to the WD:N criterion 2, I can justify the keeping of the item for his son, John Alexander - that name is listed in the archive. Mr Archibald Olive just lived his life as a farmer, he wasn't either an election candidate, or a soldier, or a trade unionist, we even don't know if he was a respected farmer or not (hopefully he was). A clearly identifiable conceptual or material entity means that we should be sure that mr Olive was known exactly as a farmer professionally, and not just lived at a farm run by someone else. Eventually all of Findagrave will be loaded. - this website works well for those who lived in the English-speaking realm, and even that is not everywhere. It's not very ethical to store the information on random dead people in non-specialized databases, because we don't know if the relatives/descendants agree with it, and if the individuals themselves would be happy to be immortalized if they were alive and had a choice. --Wolverène (talk) 05:19, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

None of those occupations "election candidate, or a soldier, or a trade unionist" are demanded by Wikidata:Notability, just that: "It refers to an instance of a clearly identifiable conceptual or material entity. The entity must be notable, in the sense that it can be described using serious and publicly available references." Any dead person that can described with Findagrave or Familysearch are eligible so long as the references are "serious and publicly available". You are trying to apply English Wikipedia Notability to Wikidata. There may be an occasional fake entry at Findagrave, but they handle them just as we do, by deleting them. --RAN (talk) 22:57, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

Not quite, I'm trying to apply the local notability policy. Seems that I understand your vision of the 2nd criterion but then, saying that FindAGrave and FamilySearch are enough to prove the subject's notability, it sounds like >90% of deleted pages here were deleted in vain because all we needed is just determine if the entities are real or fake. --Wolverène (talk) 10:34, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

What is the "local notability policy"? You are deliberately misinterpreting our core criterium: "The entity must be notable, in the sense that it can be described using serious and publicly available references." We delete fake/unverifiable entries because they lack "serious and publicly available references" and we delete self-promotion of living people. Dead people cannot promote themselves. I am sure there are plenty of dead people that died before we kept records, or those records have been destroyed by war or neglect. Think of all the Roman senators and minor poets and minor writers, where the records were lost after the fall of Rome. We didn't restart that level of record keeping till about 1500. --RAN (talk) 03:35, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

Again: There is no consensus to create an item for every living person that ever left some paper trail regardless of your reading of WD:N. --Emu (talk) 13:40, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

Wrong. Policy overrides any back-room discussions. If every living person was identifiable in a serious source per WD:N, then every living person would qualify for an item. It just happens to be the case that many people's lives have never been recorded in a 'serious and publicly available' reference. findagrave plainly is such a source. A source need not be discriminate to be 'serious'. The word 'serious' bears its plain and ordinary meaning. RAN is correct. Jack4576 (talk) 02:10, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

• Again again: "The entity must be notable, in the sense that it can be described using serious and publicly available references." If you want to change the policy to make it more like English Wikipedia you can lobby for more restrictions and have us only host "famous" people. You wrote: "no consensus to create an item for every living person." which is correct, because of the amount of work it would take, and we do not have an index of all the people in the world. The largest database of people that we do not host is Findagrave, but that would take years of work, and those are dead people, not living, Archibald Olive died in 1903. For The Peerage, it took a full year to match entries, merge duplicates, and correct errors, which was a fraction of the size of Findagrave. If we were to create an entry for the 7 billion living people in the world at the rate of one a minute, it would take 13,000 years, so no one has plans to do it. --RAN (talk) 00:53, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

  Yes, I am well aware of the wording of WD:N. As you are well aware, our interpretation of “serious and publicly available references“ generally refers to independent, not user-generated, not predominantly promotional, selective, authentic and organic material. There seems to be not a single piece of information that anybody who is not part of some sort of community project bothered to record anything about Archibald Olive apart from the people who were required to by law or had some sort of personal connection. It’s no good to quote bits and pieces from WD:N and give them the meaning you like to have. --Emu (talk) 22:49, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

  What do you mean by "our interpretation", I think you meant to write: "my own interpretation". See: User:Emu/Notability. --RAN (talk) 16:45, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

•  Keep at least for a mention in newspaper, which is a public domain resource that can get into Wikisource.--GZWDer (talk) 05:09, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

  Yes, I admit I didn't notice that the mentions in Memphis Avalanche (Q100277082) and The Tennessean (Q4808006) have been added to the item. There are no permanent URL's to those newspaper articles(?) but they may be a prove of notability, indeed. --Wolverène (talk) 06:25, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

  They are not really newspaper articles, they are (endless) lists of recipients of public funds because of an annual “Fourth of July” claim bill. The mentions read Archibald Olive, of McNairy country, $45.75. and Archibald Olive, McNariy county, $45.47 respectively. Most editors should be able to access those newspapers through The Wikipedia Library. --Emu (talk) 08:42, 30 July 2023 (UTC)

  Those mere mentions are enough to identify Archibald Olive as an entity.

  As the newspapers are indisputably serious sources; this is dispositive of the discussion. The nomination ought be withdrawn. Jack4576 (talk) 14:19, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

• Delete, mentioning in the list only gives us his name and the county, all the rest stays unsourced as far as Findagrave is not a reliable source. Андрей Романенко (talk) 22:21, 28 August 2023 (UTC)

  Reliability is not an issue. Findagrave is a serious and publicly available source, and therefore any entity described within (even if false) qualifies for inclusion as an independent entity Jack4576 (talk) 05:50, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

  Findagrave is a reliable source. It is under the editorial control of Ancestry. It has an error rate comparable to other sources we use. Being crowdsourced and being "reliable", are two different things. See: Wikidata:WikiProject Authority control/VIAF errors and Wikidata:WikiProject Authority control/LCCN errors for the non-crowdsourced Identifiers we use the most for birth and death dates. --RAN (talk) 23:40, 17 September 2023 (UTC)

  It’s user-generated content, there is no threshold of notability. That’s not a serious source. But we have discussed this many, many times, as you are well aware. --Emu (talk) 20:49, 19 September 2023 (UTC)

I am not aware of any decision that state registers are not considered serious and publicly available references. Can you link to it for me? Jklamo (talk) 14:01, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

@Jklamo see User:Emu/Notability#Sources_need_to_be_selective --Emu (talk) 22:08, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

I understand that's your opinion, Emu, but I don't know of consensus. Dsp13 (talk) 10:50, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

@Dsp13 Well, there are links to a two-part discussion involving several users, 4 of them admins, and the discussion does seem to indicate a long standing practice. I don’t know of any similiar discussions with a different result. --Emu (talk) 13:24, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks - I'd taken a quick look without looking at the discussion linked - caught up now. The discussion's second part isolates this question. As I understand the argument, understanding notability this way is: (a) longstanding practice; (b) local consensus (I've not been active in WD community discussion, so don't know how far global consensus is possible, or what it looks like); (c) possibly required by technical limitations. But it's not what N-2 currently says: understanding 'serious' this way seems just weird. If this criterion is wanted, I'd be happier if N-2 was changed to say explicitly 'serious, publicly available and selective'. (I think I'd oppose such a change myself at the moment, but am open to learning more.) Dsp13 (talk) 15:08, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

We could of course do that. I’m not entirely convinced that such a change in wording would do a lot of good though. See Wikidata talk:Notability#Define_what_a_serious_source_is for some insights about our current understanding of “serious” and about problems that may arise when changing the wording of WD:N --Emu (talk) 16:08, 29 June 2023 (UTC)

Keep per WD:N rule 2. The reasons for deletion provided by User:Emu is reflective of a serious and erroneous understanding of policy Jack4576 (talk) 05:52, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

Your comment would be more poignant if you could kindly elaborate the merits of this astounding claim. --Emu (talk) 09:41, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

Your own comment displays your lack of knowledge about policy, as you are citing your own prose as policy instead of relying on the actual policy as written. Further, you make a serious error by not regarding the references pointed to by Jklamo as being dispositive of this nomination discussion. Jack4576 (talk) 12:54, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

Okay, if you say so. My “own prose“ cites two discussions that show the understanding of current policy and practice by users with years of experience. But sure, that’s not “actual policy“. Let’s take your word for it, kind user with 92 live edits and an impressive blocking history on en.wp. --Emu (talk) 13:18, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

I would prefer to stick with the guidelines as written.

Background discussions by editors, even the discussions of those with years of experience, don't have operative effect unless they are incorporated into a guideline.

The 'current policy' is what is written, not what is contained within those discussions.

The 'current practice' is against policy where those practices conflict with the policy as written.

Here, we have an entity that is identifiable through publicly available sources as per Jklamo. That is all that is required per WD:N. If you disagree, you are free to propose a change to the policy or add additional context to the policy's text. However I suspect such a policy change would be rejected given the deliberately designed wide scope of Wikidata.

Plainly, given the discussion in this thread and in the discussions across other RfDs, your opinion regarding the policy of WD:N is not yet consensus. As it is not consensus, I will, and other users should; continue to oppose it until the position you're claiming is actually adopted as a policy.

Thanks User:Emu Jack4576 (talk) 14:09, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

So your argument is basically that you have some rare insights into the meaning of WD:N, especially the word “serious”, and that your insights are somehow more valid than what highly experienced users, many of them admins elected by the community, consider to be consensus. Well, okay. --Emu (talk) 14:21, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

Actually my argument is that my intuitions regarding the meaning of the word ‘serious’ are ordinary, not rare

and additionally, these intuitions are equally as valid and valuable as users with experience or admin status

I give zero weight to somebody’s status as an experienced community member when deciding what the word ‘serious’ means

I especially give zero weight to somebody’s status as an admin when deciding what the word ‘serious’ means

If you want the word ‘serious’ to mean something other than its ordinary, plain, and intuitive meaning; then make that policy change

Otherwise please stop asserting that a localised consensus reached at a particular time, during a community discussion with a limited audience, is somehow relevant here

Clearly, based on the discussions on this page, the community consensus regarding the interpretation of WD:N #2 isn’t as robust as you appear to think

If you want to change the meaning of WD:N beyond its ordinary meaning, I invite you to start an RfC and add additional content to the guideline clarifying what the word ‘serious’ means

Your status as an admin does not mean users here should defer to your preferred interpretation as to what the plain and ordinary meaning of WD:N #2 means.

I accord you no authority on this topic beyond that of another ordinary user. Admins do not have special status when deciding what guidelines mean, that is a matter for the community as a whole. Jack4576 (talk) 23:02, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

Couple of things:

• There is no such thing as an ordinary, plain, and intuitive meaning of “serious”. If there were, this wouldn’t mean that much for the interpretation of the word in context. That’s not how language or the law works.
• The RfC process has been broken for a long time. Consensus generally isn’t reached through RfC’s here. This is different to other projects.
• Consensus on Wikidata is indeed often reached by a very few people or even with some sort of tacit understanding of current practice. This is different to other projects.
• It is true that the admins have no special “voting power”. But they are chosen by the community to enforce consensus which means that they are by and large trusted to discern this consensus. They might be wrong, sure, we are all volunteers and make mistakes, but this is something to consider, especially if there isn’t just one lone renegade admin on a mission.
• Discussions on similar items generally are very much alike: There’s Richard (RAN) who has a consistent view of notability that I don’t share but do respect. And there are often those who have created the items or belong to some project or have a special interest in similar items.
• After all, I don’t get it. If somebody is an accomplished professional, it’s not that hard to get some minor article in the local paper. That’s enough for notability. --Emu (talk) 20:57, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

Replying:

• You're wrong about that. The 'plain meaning' of words is a well established concept in law. Plain meaning incorporates and includes context. Google 'plain meaning' on Google Scholar if you wish, you'll find that it is extremely well established concept. All words under this conceptual framework have a 'plain meaning', including the word 'serious'.
• The RfC process being 'broken' (in your view, personally I think its fine) is not a reason to start pretending we have made changes to policies, that we haven't actually made
• WikiData does not have a different approach to 'consensus' as other projects. Consensus is always reached by the community as a whole, across all of the projects, including this one. What you're claiming here is a pretty remarkable claim, and I've seen no indication from the Wikimedia foundation that WikiData is exceptional when it comes to community consensus based governance.
• Admins are chosen by the community to enforce consensus that is established by the community, they do not have the power to override community consensus to put forward their own views. Nor to they have the power to assert a false consensus, nor do they have the power to assert that a localised consensus has the power to override the plain meaning of guidelines as they are written.
• My views on notability are consistent with RAN's.
• "If somebody is an accomplished professional, it’s not that hard to get some minor article in the local paper. That’s enough for notability." Yes, that is of course the case. However, the hypothetical you are proposing here is much much higher of a bar than the actual wording of WD:N #2.

Jack4576 (talk) 04:02, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

I hold a law degree (although not in Common Law), I think you can safely assume that I know what “plain meaning“ is.

The rest of your reasoning shows a misunderstanding of how Wikidata works: Yes, consensus is reached by the community, no, the Foundation doesn’t regulate how this consensus is reached. It is generally not done by RfC on Wikidata. What is indeed special to Wikidata (if you compare it to en.wp or de.wp) is that much of daily operations isn’t codified or current practice has been different to what guidelines suggest for many years. It would certainly be better if guidelines reflected current practice but it often doesn’t. Maybe that’s what confuses you.

Your whole point hinges on the notion that you and Richard somehow know best how to interpret the word “serious” and that the rest of the community somehow is on your side but has been strangely silent on the issue for many years of administrative overreach. Could be. Not so sure what happens to that theory once you apply Ockham’s razor. --Emu (talk) 09:40, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

Given that you have a law degree I am puzzled then by your statement that; 'There is no such thing as an ordinary, plain, and intuitive meaning of “serious”'. That's a seriously contestable claim, and one that scholars have argued about for years. Nevermind though, lets not get bogged down in a debate about the philosophy of language and interpretation. (Although I'd highly recommend to you the work of Brian Slocum if this is of interest to you)

Regardless, I do think it is relatively robust and defensible position to take a plain-meaning approach when applying Wikidata's guidelines. To do otherwise when interpreting the language there as expressed risks straining the words as if their meaning somehow incorporates years of background discussion. Plainly I disagree with that being how Wikimedia's sites operate, and again, I haven't any reason why WikiData should be treated differently aside from your assertions above to the contrary.

If the guidelines and current practice are in conflict, then the guidelines win out. That is my position.

Another way I would articulate my position on this issue is; 'how do I know the meaning of the word serious? I know it when I see it.'

"Your whole point hinges on the notion that you and Richard somehow know best how to interpret the word “serious” and that the rest of the community somehow is on your side"

This is not at all my position. My point is that we are ordinary members of the community, competent in the English language; and are qualified to express our reasonably held position as to how the guidance material should be applied as written. Other members of the community, including yourself, are also entitled to your reasonably held positions as to how the guidance material should be applied. If you want to assert a special interpretation of the word 'serious' that goes beyond its ordinary plain meaning, then by all means, obtain a change to the guidelines. I will follow whatever the text is.

Until that occurs I will continue to apply the guidelines on their face, as they are written. I do think it is more than fair to apply the word 'serious' as both Richard and I have done so above, and there are policy benefits to doing so. If you have a different view, you are entitled to it. This is the nature of consensus. Not every discussion or disagreement in consensus-based forums are able reach resolution; impasses do occasionally occur. As you'd know as a lawyer, such conflicts in the interpretation of language are often an inevitable part of any decision making process with multiple potential outcomes.

If you want Wikidata to follow the positions that "state registers are not considered serious and publicly available references", or that social media profiles are never serious references for their subjects, then by all means add that policy position to the guidance. Until that happens though the only relevant factor I will have in mind when applying WD:N #2 will be the guidance provided by the words as articulated. This is not a claim to 'special knowledge', this is merely a claim that as a competent speaker of the English language; I am confident that I have a strong enough intuitive grasp of the meaning of the word 'serious' so as to be able to productively contribute to these discussions. In case it assists you in understanding my position, my views on language and definitional issues are highly influenced by Wittgenstein.

I think Richard's position on how the guidelines work is a robust position, and my intention is to keep following Richard's approach whilst participating here whilst contributing as constructively and productively as possible. Jack4576 (talk) 02:31, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

To be absolutely clear, my position on the meaning of the word 'serious' is:

• "I know it when I see it, and someone else will know it when they see it, but what they see and what they know may or may not be what I see and what I know, and that's okay"

Jack4576 (talk) 02:55, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

That’s a lot of text that basically boils down to: “Yeah but I don’t want to know how Wikidata works because it should work the way I think it should. Also I like my interpretation of words better.“ Is that how you earned your blocks on en.wp? Also, how Wittgenstein of all people would help you defending this position is beyond me, especially if you consider his PI (PU) positions. --Emu (talk) 10:28, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

That is a complete misrepresentation of my position, and its frankly as disconcerting as it is concerning that as an administrator you would read my comment and then misrepresent my position in that way. Admins should be above straw-man arguments. I am clearly not saying the what you've written above in quotes.

Wittgenstein is relevant in that you keep pointing to special rules/cases to elaborate upon the true meaning of the word 'serious' as it is applied at Wikidata. This is fallacious for similar reasons that Wittgenstein criticizes the practice of attempting to divine the meaning of words through definition.

My position is that the word 'serious' has its plain and ordinary meaning defined by its general usage across the English language. I have a sufficient command of the English language to interpret and apply the word 'serious' as it appears in WD:N. I'm not going to be deferring to your assertion that I should qualify this interpretation of the word 'serious' by reading words into the guideline that aren't actually there in the policy.

I'm happy, additionally, to follow clear consensus. What you've pointed to really isn't that. The discussions you've got listed on your userpage are questionable in whether they actually represent consensus. As another user noted above: "I understand that's your opinion, Emu, but I don't know of consensus." Jack4576 (talk) 11:35, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

Considering that users including: myself, Granpar, RAN, as well as others in this thread all collectively disagree the view that 'sources must be selective'; I'd say its fairly clear that the site lacks consensus on this issue. If you want a formal resolution of this, open an RfC or change the policy.

I would have thought it obviously the case that it is not best practice to point to singular discussions as if they're somehow representative of a consensus among the Wikidata community at large. Most of us didn't see that discussion, and are unable to contribute at this point because it's been archived.

I'm going to open an RfC on this. Jack4576 (talk) 11:44, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

  Structural need. Trade (talk) 22:22, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

  What structural need? The primary types of relationships involving these entities appear to be:

  • That a fictional entity is from narrative universe (P1080) a universe. However, this is redundant to the statement that they are present in work (P1441) in one or more movies and/or other media, and/or they are an element of a media franchise (P8345).
  • That the universe is a fictional universe described in (P1445) one or more works. This is, again, redundant to the media franchise (P8345) of those works.
  • That the universes have a specific series ordinal (P1545) within Walt Disney Animation Studios film universes (Q101099318). This appears to be original synthesis; I'm not aware of any official implication that (for example) The Lion King universe (Q73544451) is a direct successor to Aladdin universe (Q84249261) simply because their movies came out one after another.

Like item lists "Aladdin universe", but the movie takes place in the fictional Arabian city of Agrabah. Sure, it's a fictional city, but "universe"? No. Whereas the Great Mouse Detective, which is also on the list, takes place in late 1800s London. Again, that's not a "universe." Really, this whole thing is an exercise in taking the titles of random Disney movies, putting the word "universe" at the end, and calling it a "Disney universe." Which is clearly just non-sensical, unverifiable, and not what Wikidata exits for. What's next, a list of "Walt Disney Animation Studios film universe foods" that lists spaghetti, among other real world dishes, because of that one scene in Lady and the Tramp? Come on. It's at least an exercise in pointless minutia if nothing else. Although again, I don't think its in line with the purpose of Wikidata. --Adamant1 (talk) 07:20, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

• @Gymnicus: what is the reason for an erratic choice to delete two articles (see also Alpines Bauhandwerk: Altes und neues Wissen vereinen (Q118214928) of the online magazine Syntopia Alpina (Q112206291)? All article items are well formed, each one has linked author items. To build useful and complete insights about (academic) publications and to allow applications like scholia to be worthful, such items fullfills totally a structural need. They are also part of broader scientific output of University of Lucerne (Q673308). Mfchris84 (talk) 08:57, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
•  Keep Seems to be a notable publication with at least most authors being notable on their own. So we should probably treat these items akin to journal articles and keep them. --Emu (talk) 09:28, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

  @Emu: I don't see it that way. Because the "scientific identifiers" such as the DOI are clearly missing. I'm opposed to keeping anything just because someone says it's scientific. --Gymnicus (talk) 15:55, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

  @Gymnicus The journal isn’t supposed to be “scientific” (i. e. an academic journal), it’s part of popular science. This doesn’t mean that the items can’t be notable. The publication itself is notable, the publisher is notable, publicly funded and linked to a prestigious university. Most authors of articles are notable on their own. I think we can rule out spam here. --Emu (talk) 16:07, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

  @Emu: Sorry, but that sounds like a further softening of the notability criteria to me. And of course only in the "scientific" area. In all other areas much heavier artillery is brought out, to put it a little in "military" language. --Gymnicus (talk) 16:13, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

  I don’t think this is true. We are generally pretty relaxed about notability if abuse isn’t the issue. But you are entitled to your opinion. --Emu (talk) 16:16, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

  Sorry, doi is a permanent identifier for a digital object but doesn't indicate whether an output is scientific, popular or whatever or not. A PID can't create notability. Mfchris84 (talk) 18:25, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

I looked to see if I could find any other information on this waterfall. Instead what I found were lots of references to Jhari Falls (Q114712215) (aka Jerry Falls) in India. Looking at the photo for Jarry Falls, Nigeria [1], it looks very similar to those for Jhari Falls, India (e.g. file:Jhari_Falls_2k22.jpg, [2], [3]). Am I crazy? Bovlb (talk) 00:47, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Your interpretation appears correct. You'd expect coordinates given to the arc-second to be within about 100 feet. The source omits the arc-second symbol but, even if these were actually decimal arc-minutes, it wouldn't be far away. Bovlb (talk) 15:29, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Glat Entertainment

All of these entries were made to promote the work of the Tavera family; a family of so-called entrepreneurs and writers that get help from acquaintances that include politicians and actors in Mexico to make their vanity projects. Regardless of this dubious way to succeed, they used the Wikimedia projects to upload multiple production photos of their movies, articles in various Wikipedias for those movies and their actors and linking to web pages so that people would know their work, which is mostly unknown even in Mexico, especially one of the books they tried to promote up to the point of creating out of the blue an English title for it in the entry even though there's no proof that such book has ever been published in English (see Q115952341). The notability was challenged and all of their eswiki pages were deleted; the main account, Pedro Renteria, was globally blocked after being found that they used sockpuppets in other projects. All of these entries have the names of various members of the Tavera family and their production company, Glat Entertainment. Unfortunately, there are some entries that are part of this promotional campaign which I cannot include in this request due to being linked to pages in the Welsh Wikipedia, which they also used to promote their work (entries Q64863450, Q64996086, Q64996103, Q89678678)..

@Dorades: Does Wikidata not have a standard of WP:BEFORE?StarTrekker (talk) 21:36, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

I don't know of such a policy. If I overlooked something, I'm happy to adopt my edits accordingly. --Dorades (talk) 16:00, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

On English Wikipedia WP:BEFORE refers to actions one can take before putting something up for deletion, mainly searching for information and double checking. From what I can gather Wikidata does not seem to have the same system, but I think its a pretty good thing to do.StarTrekker (talk) 11:17, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

@StarTrekker There are those who advocate for the exact opposite: Shifting the burden of proof onto the item’s creator, i. e. deleting anything that doesn’t have references that are proof of notability. Given that it only takes seconds to create an item on Wikidata and it sometimes takes hours to make sense of such items, this idea could have some merit. --Emu (talk) 11:19, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

@Emu I have always been more of an inclusionist than a deletionist, so I'm not bound to support such a reform on Wikipedia or Wikidata, but if it was to be introduced on Wikidata I would propose that Wikidata started to demand people create an account to create items (like on English Wikipedia) which would reduce careless item creation and that there were always notifications to item creators.StarTrekker (talk) 11:33, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

I don’t know. It’s single purpose accounts that create the most work for me as an admin. --Emu (talk) 11:46, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

@Dorades I created this item when I made the cawiki article for Guim Costa i Calsamiglia (Q93071828), her unmarried partner (P451). I disagree with deletion because it will poored Guim Costa infobox article in cawiki. I don't know how much notable she is, but her number of claims are greater than thousands of notable people's spouses or childs have. So, may be someday, an editor starts an article about Emma Cots and upgrade the present information. Thanks Amadalvarez (talk) 21:23, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

The number of claims does not really say a lot, can you provide references for them? --Dorades (talk) 21:17, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

I'll find references. In any case, I'm not defending her notability, I'm defending the consistency of the information in the database. If someone else item (in this case, Guim Costa) has one information that must be an entity, we must to create it, doesn't matter notability of third person. If you only accept notable people, we only will have in WD notable person married with notable person and with notable childs. It make no sense ! Amadalvarez (talk) 21:31, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Well, it does not matter what or who I think should have an item in Wikidata, but what the guidelines say. As far as I know, being the wife/husband, child or relative of a notable person usually does not make those notable themselves. According to the guidelines, it's not a problem if there are serious and publicly available references (WD:N). --Dorades (talk) 21:56, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Well, the immediate family, especially the spouse, generally is needed to make statements made in other items more useful. Infobox usage is another concern.

However and that’s a reason to  Delete in the current state: The connection is completely unsourced which is very worrying, both because of the constraints of unmarried partner (P451) and because of WD:BLP. All statements about ECS are unsourced too. Amadalvarez you might want to fix this ASAP – if possible. A Google search indicates that this might not be that easy. --Emu (talk) 22:12, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

There is probably an alternative spelling Chhā̃gā, which has resulted in several duplicate entries in GeoNames; it look like the "Chhā̃gā" names, added later, are more accurately located. The Google Knowledge Graph links to a search for "Chhanga Glotian Kala, Pakistan", which is probably another name for https://www.geonames.org/1380480/chhanga.html or combines its name with another place (https://www.geonames.org/1178655/galorian-kalan.html).

@Emu: Sorry, it's not obvious to me how so... Wikidata isn't my thing, so you'll have to excuse my extreme ignorance. Both items I mentioned are for the "Voluntarism" disambiguation pages on Wikipedia. Why wouldn't they be considered the same thing? I initially thought there was no equivalent page on English Wikipedia, until I found it independently. I tried to add an interwiki link and found myself embroiled in Wikidata complexity, which is a bit beyond me and I don't have time to figure out right now. Andrew Sheedy (talk) 19:57, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

@Andrew Sheedy I’m not an expert either but as a general rule, Wikimedia disambiguation page are only identical in Wikidata if their name are the same character by character, see Wikidata:WikiProject Disambiguation pages/guidelines. --Emu (talk) 21:28, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

Both pages are for "Voluntarism". Both pages list "Volontarisme" as the French equivalent. They're identical, except that one page has translations for Spanish and Catalan, and the other has translations for other languages. So they don't link to each other in Wikipedia, but they are for the exact same thing: "Voluntarism". No difference in spelling whatsoever. One page is called "Voluntarism" and the other just lists "Voluntarism" under the title. Currently, it's impossible to identify the English label at Q11076908, because it's already used at Q7940934, which means neither page can ever be complete.

Keep I've found a reference that suggests this passes WD:N https://www.chamberofcommerce.com/business-directory/california/inglewood/christian-church/2016859781-allstars-international-church

Promotional / bad statement issues should be resolved through fixing the entry Jack4576 (talk) 13:03, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

That page is by its own admission “platform which helps small businesses grow by allowing our members to promote themselves using effective tools and features on the Chamber website”. That’s not a serious source per WD:N. --Emu (talk) 13:22, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

Perhaps not. Although I think its arguable. This source doesn't appear to be joke, and appears to be genuine evidence that this subject is an entity per WD:N. In my view it is therefore sufficiently serious.

Additionally, there is this reference to suggest the same: https://zaubee.com/biz/allstars-international-church-xq5vcon9

Do we have additional guidance as to what 'serious' means? Otherwise I'm happy to stick with my intuition as to what the word 'serious' means within the guideline. Jack4576 (talk) 14:16, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

I think that elaboration of what "serious" means is a potential idea for improvement of WD:N, and it has been discussed on the talk page there. In the absence of such clarification, I agree with @Emu regarding the chamberofcommerce.com entry, and also doubt Zaubee as a source establishing notability. Jamie7687 (talk) 16:41, 31 August 2023 (UTC)

In the absence of such clarification I maintain that the ordinary and plain meaning of 'serious' encompasses and includes the sources above, although I acknowledge that reasonable minds may differ. Jack4576 (talk) Jack4576 (talk) 10:24, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

There are two sources but they may be too weak to confirm the subject's notability. I may be wrong. See also Topic:X44fddrw20cyp7ee for the context. Wolverène (talk) 05:04, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

The subject is identifiable as an entity from the sources, and I see no reason to regard these sources as not serious. They appear to be genuine sources regarding a topic of serious interest to a reasonable number of people.

IMO therefore the subject qualifies per WD:N #2 Jack4576 (talk) 10:05, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

The IMDB page is now empty; the reason could be a request by the subject, or that the credits were disputed. I'm unsure of the reliability of the other sources, and Google search doesn't find anything else useful. Peter James (talk) 12:52, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

Delete: @Wolverène I check everything thoroughly before reporting here, these Turkish spams are mostly from same a few sockpuppeteer spammers. There are a few sockpuppet cases and some a few dozen blocked users, they apparently now use single purpose accounts to spam to evade being detected, and even if detected, to avoid all their spams easily erased, so sockpuppet cases are pretty much useless now. As you can imagine just like how they abuse this place, they also abuse other user contributed sites like IMDB, TMDB and others. IMDB page was emptied because the credits were fake. Two links here are spam sites (biliyo, kimnereli), and the other two are user contributed databases abused by them. In short, this is not notable in any way and it's spam.

No sources, no notability, no sense since there is an entry for radical feminism. POV-purpose item, just take a look to the latest edits on Feminazi and "radical feminism" itself by the creator/self-proclaimed owner of this item. ¿Possible sabotage? I think he/she deserves a warning by an administrator, since Wikidata should not be any POV warrior's battlefield. --PedroAcero76 (talk) 22:52, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

Keep: Radical feminism is different in concept to a particular person being a 'radical feminist'. I disagree that this is amounts to problematic POV warrior-ing. The lack of sources however is an issue, although this is such a manifestly obvious subject/entity that I'm comfortable keeping it in this case. Jack4576 (talk) 00:28, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

Yes, it's a pure POV-pushing invention of one user, with complete and utter nonsensicl edits to it. To include a only derogatory rightwing smearword (Feminazi has no real world meaning besides bullying the non-manosphere by the toxic manospherists) as part of its definition says it all imho.
