Non notable actress/ dancer. Has acted in some blink and you miss roles in some movies. Does not have any references from notable sources and this page may be a part of a PR campaign to get some visibility. Jupitus Smart 02:09, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any particular indication of notability for this street in Sarajevo. Sources are either from government sites or fairly routine coverage of public works or buildings located on the street. JTtheOG (talk) 00:30, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A page for a a research study from 1970, with notability supported by only one independent source. Pubmed shows 243 citations (over the course of 55 years), which suggests that it is influential, but insufficient for stand-alone notability. Klbrain (talk) 00:08, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Modular agile transit (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 lead says "While not yet a standardized system, MAT represents an emerging idea in transportation research to address challenges". I'm not sure that an evolving, conceptual notion meets WP Notability requirements. The article reads like ad brochure for a startup ... lots of bullet points. If there is no concrete product; and if there is no international standard ... what is there? A research project? Not sure that qualifies as encyclopedic.

There are several sources listed at bottom of article, but most are not _about_ the "Modular agile transit" ... most of the sources simply support individual facts stated in the article (but the sources do not mention the M.A.T.). Noleander (talk) 00:22, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Transportation-related deletion discussions. WCQuidditch 00:33, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Honestly surprised to see such a poor article from such a long-time editor. Cite 1 has the wrong DOI# but should link to [1], which is a computer model about modular vehicles but is not about "agile" transit or an actual system. 2 is some totally irrelevant software source, 3 is about carsharing not transit, 4 seems relevant but is also just a model, 5 has a title that's merely about electric buses but the DOI link goes to something else, 6 seems relevant but is also just a computer model and does not use "agile", 7 is a good book but irrelevant, and 8 is also irrelevant. So the article is a lot of fluff, unsourced statements, and ref-bomb material. What is going on here? Like I understand what the article's getting at, but since it's just a research concept I agree with nom that this reads as a student article rather than something that should have a standalone page.

Fails WP:NMUSICBIO as the only truly significant coverage in reliable sources is about the subject's death, with no notable music to his name. The Globalgrind article appears to the product of a top ten listicle content farm (cf. WP:WATCHMOJO and their ilk), the Forbes article is by a contributor (WP:FORBESCON), the biographies on WP:GENIUS are user-generated, source 6 appears to scrape content from sources like Discogs and Wikipedia (see WP:CIRCULAR), while the last source (along with all the valuable content I could find in a WP:BEFORE search) is WP:BIO1E coverage of his death. The closest we have to a source that shows notability is 5, which was written by a writer who has contributed to Pitchfork. However, this on its own is not enough to sustain an article, and as a result, I do believe it should just be deleted. JeffSpaceman (talk) 00:00, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

NEW NOMINATIONS

[edit]

Capitalization fix for "Arrondissement" geography stub categories

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: It was brought to my attention that the word "arrondissement" is not a proper noun, nor is it part of the official name of any arrondissement of France. I also noticed this through some categories that weren't recently made, such as Arras arrondissement geography stubs. Anyway, there are a lot of categories that need the word "arrondissement" lowercase. Should the templates with "Arrondissement" in them get recapitalized, too? - OpalYosutebitotalk』 『articles I want to eat02:33, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Slaves "from"

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: rename, while "from" is generally the norm when a denonym cannot be used, it is too ambiguous in this particular case. "From" could (hypothetically) refer to the home country where the slave grew up before being enslaved, but here it refers to the (new) country where the person is being enslaved. In this case "in" is a lot clearer than "from". Marcocapelle (talk) 02:23, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lists of places in the United Kingdom

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: merge, unclear distinction between the two levels of categories. Note that places is not populated places, which is a clearly separate topic. Marcocapelle (talk) 02:17, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Montpellier stubs

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: This stub category has less than 60 transclusions - OpalYosutebitotalk』 『articles I want to eat02:06, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Dieppe geography stubs

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: I found this French arrondissement geography stub category that don't have the word "arrondissement" in there. - OpalYosutebitotalk』 『articles I want to eat02:02, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Le Havre geography stubs

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: I found this French arrondissement geography stub category that don't have the word "arrondissement" in there. - OpalYosutebitotalk』 『articles I want to eat02:04, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Rouen geography stubs

[edit]

Category:California ghost town stubs

[edit]
Nominator's rationale: This stub category has less than 60 items in it, so it should be upmerged - OpalYosutebitotalk』 『articles I want to eat01:15, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects

[edit]

New pope

[edit]
Previous RfDs for this redirect and similar redirects:

This redirect has pointed to Pope Benedict XVI and papal conclave at various points. I pointed it to The New Pope earlier this year and think that that is the more intuitive target; pointing it to the new pope after every conclave doesn't seem sustainable (when does a new pope lose his newness?). The old RfD was before the TV show was released. Sdrqaz (talk) 00:24, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Shish

[edit]

The lowercase makes the target surprising. Since there isn't much information on shish at skewer (the article is too broad), I think that retargeting to shish kebab (page view comparison) would provide the most information and be the most intuitive for readers. Alternatives include swapping with Shish (disambiguation). Sdrqaz (talk) 00:24, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

MAHA

[edit]

Recently, reliable sources have most commonly used MAHA (specifically in all capitals) to refer to Make America Healthy Again, although it has also been commonly used for Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia before that saying was a thing. Personally, I think MAHA should redirect to Make America Healthy Again, but if it doesn't it should simply continue redirecting to Maha. GrandDuchyConti 💜(talk) 02:26, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Eurovision

[edit]

Honestly, i'm confused at Eurovision (disambiguation) article which implies a network that organise the contest (Eurovision (network), founded in 1954) is in the first place on the list, instead of contest itself that first held in 1956, despite "Eurovision" redirects to ESC instead of the network. My question is, should we kept "Eurovision" as a redirect for "Eurovision Song Contest", or retarget "Eurovision" to a network that holds the contest? 103.111.102.118 (talk) 02:46, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
