Before nominating: checks and alternatives

Shortcut

Prior to nominating article(s) for deletion, please be sure to:

A. Read and understand these policies and guidelines
  1. The Wikipedia deletion policy, which explains valid grounds for deletion.
  2. The main four guidelines and policies that inform deletion discussions: notability (WP:N), verifiability (WP:V), reliable sources (WP:RS), and what Wikipedia is not (WP:NOT)
  3. Subject-specific notability guidelines, which can be found at Category:Wikipedia notability guidelines
B. Carry out these checks
  1. Confirm that the article does not meet the criteria for quick deletion.
  2. If there are verifiability, notability or other sourcing concerns, take reasonable steps to search for reliable sources. (See step D.)
  3. Review the article's history to check for potential vandalism or poor editing.
  4. Read the article's talk page for previous nominations and/or that your objections haven't already been dealt with.
  5. Check "What links here" in the article's sidebar, to see how the page is used and referenced within Wikipedia.
  6. Check if there are interlanguage links, also in the sidebar, which may lead to more developed and better sourced articles. Likewise, search for native-language sources if the subject has a name in a non-Latin alphabet (such as Japanese or Greek), which is often in the lead.
C. Consider whether the article could be improved rather than deleted
  1. If the article can be fixed through normal editing, then it is not a candidate for RfD.
  2. If the article was recently created, please consider allowing the contributors more time to develop the article.
  3. If an article has issues try first raising your concerns on the article's talk page, with the main contributors, and/or adding a cleanup tag, such as {{notability}}, {{hoax}}, {{original research}}, or {{advert}}; this ensures readers are aware of the problem and may act to fix it.
  4. If the topic is not important enough to merit an article on its own, consider merging or redirecting to an existing article. This should be done particularly if the topic name is a likely search term.
D. Search for additional sources, if the main concern is notability
  1. The minimum search expected is a normal Google search, a Google Books search, a Google News search, and a Google News archive search; Google Scholar is suggested for academic subjects.
  2. If you find a lack of sources, you've completed basic due diligence before nominating. However, if a quick search does find sources, this does not always mean an RfD on a sourcing basis is unwarranted. If you spend more time examining the sources, and determine that they are insufficient, e.g., because they only contain passing mention of the topic, then an RfD nomination may still be appropriate.
  3. If you find that adequate sources do appear to exist, the fact that they are not yet present in the article is not a proper basis for a nomination. Instead, you should consider citing the sources, or at minimum apply an appropriate template to the page that flags the sourcing concern. Common templates include {{unreferenced}}, {{refimprove}}, {{third-party}}, {{primary sources}} and {{one source}}.

Discussed deletion

change
Put the deletion tag on the article.
  1. Click "Change source" at the top of the page to be deleted.
  2. In the edit box, add this tag: {{rfd|REASON}}. Put it at the top of the page, above the rest of the text. Then, replace the text "REASON" with a short reason why the page should be deleted. Do not be too specific here. You can add more details on the discussion page (see below).
    • It is a good idea to write a change summary to let others know what you are doing. You can say "nominating for deletion", "requesting deletion", or something like that.
  3. Click "Save changes" at the bottom to save the page with the deletion tag at the top.
    • You can also check the "Watch this page" check box to add the page to your watchlist. This lets you know if the page for deletion has been changed. If the deletion tag is removed any time before the discussion is closed, it should be put back.
Create a discussion page.
  1. If the deletion tag has been added to the page, a box should appear at the top of the article with a link saying "Click here to create a discussion page!" Click that link.
  2. You should be taken to a page starting with "Creating Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/..." along with the current year and the name of the article to be deleted. In the edit box, the following tag should have already been added: {{RfD/Preload/Template}} . Replace the text PLACE REASON HERE with a more detailed reason why the page should be deleted.
    • It is helpful to include links to the various policy pages about Wikipedia (that begin with Wikipedia:). Here are some examples of this: "This article is [[Wikipedia:COMPLEX|not easy to understand]]" or "Not a [[Wikipedia:notable|notable]] topic''. This will make others more aware of why the page is not acceptable under Wikipedia's policies.
  3. Click "Save changes" to save the new discussion page when you are done.
    • A change summary you can write for this page is "creating discussion page", "starting deletion discussion", or something like that.
    • As with the page for deletion, you can check the "Watch the page" box. This will let you know if someone else has replied to your discussion.
List it here
  1. Copy the title of the discussion page to the clipboard. You can do this by dragging the mouse over the text from "Wikipedia" to the end of the page title to highlight it, then right-clicking and selecting "Copy".
  2. Go to the list of deletion requests, and click "change source" beside the words "Current deletion request discussions".
  3. At the top of the list of discussions, paste the title from the clipboard (right-click and select "Paste"). Add a pair of curly brackets before and after the title to make a template that will copy the content of the discussion page onto the main deletion page, like this:
    {{Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/(name of page to be deleted)}}
  4. Finally, click "Save changes" to add the discussion to the list. If the page saves successfully, you should see your deletion discussion at the top of the list. And that's it!

If this is too complicated for you, there are some gadgets like Twinkle that you can use. This allows you to do it faster.

Quick deletion

change
See also: Wikipedia:Deletion policy § Quick deletion

If you think a page has nonsense content, add {{non}} to the top of the page.

If you think a page does not say why the subject is important, add {{notable}} to the top of the page.

If you think a page should be deleted per other quick deletion rules, add {{QD|reason}} to the top of the page.

Notifying the user

change

Generally, you should try to be civil and tell the user that created the page to join the discussion talking about the page. This can be done by adding {{subst:RFDNote|page to be deleted}} ~~~~ to the bottom of their talkpage.

Discussions

  • The discussion is not a vote. Please make suggestions on what action to take, and support your suggestion with reasons.
  • Please look at the article before you make a suggestion. Do not make an opinion using only the information given by the nominator. Looking at the history of the article may help to understand the situation.
  • Please read other comments and suggestions. They may have helpful information.
  • Start your comments or suggestions on a new line. Start with * and sign after your comment by adding ~~~~ to the end. If you are responding to another editor, put your comment directly below theirs and make sure your comment is indented (using more than one *).
  • New users can make suggestions, but their ideas may not be considered, especially if the suggestion seems to be made in bad faith. The opinion of users who had an account before the start of the request may be given more weight or importance.
  • Suggestions by users using "sock puppets" (more than one account belonging to the same person) will not be counted.
  • Please make only one suggestion. If you change your mind, change your first idea instead of adding a new one. The best way to do this is to put <s> before your old idea and </s> after it. For example, if you wanted to delete an article but now think it should be kept, you could put: "Delete keep".
  • If you would like an article to be kept, you can improve the article and try to fix the problems given in the request for deletion. If the reasons given in the nomination are fixed by changing, the nomination can be withdrawn by the nominator, and the deletion discussion will be closed by an administrator.
  • Try to avoid confusing suggestions, such as delete and merge.
  • Requests for deletion is not a war zone. You can click here for more information, although the page is not in Simple English.

Remember: You do not have to make a suggestion for every nomination. You should think about not making a suggestion if:

  1. A nomination involves a topic that you do not know much about.
  2. Everyone has made the same suggestion and you agree with that suggestion.
  • All times are in UTC.

  •   Delete Per nominatior Raayaan9911 21:44, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm thinking on this one. There's a clear promotional tone in the article, and I've already removed a couple of junk sources (an expired blog as a source? On a page just created? Nooo, no hint of UPE here! Nope!), and several sources that are pretty clear paid/sponsored articles ([1] when the byline is Roundtable, yeah, that's a paid article). There is the NBCNews article [2] that appears to be a decent sources. Oddly, some of the negative aspects mentioned there aren't in the article, and other controversies are basically lightly mentioned. There might be a kernel of something here. Might. The utter lack of coverage in more mainstream sources is not a good sign. Ravensfire (talk) 03:56, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment The User is repeatedly nominating articles for deletion with vague reasons, as seen here. The sources cited are WP:RS. The notability is significant, with more than seven pages here. The title is not fabricated; it is taken from J.D. Sarkar's book this, pp.37. The reason provided is unjustified, and the article fully complies with Wikipedia's guidelines. Shakib ul hassan talk! 13:26, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • I suppose the question is - are two sources regarding this suitable for a standalone article. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:02, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
      For that, I could cite more sources, like these:
      • [3] "When freed from the affairs of the Morays of Javli, Shivaji made his first open raid upon the Mughal territory in the summer of 1657, and plundered Junnar and Ahmadnagar."
      • [4] "In the face of what seemed an unstoppable attack on Bijapur by the Mughals, Shivaji opened correspondence with Aurangzeb, offering to keep passes open and his services in return for recognition of his rights in the Pune region and the former More lands. At the same time, however, he raided several areas in the Junnar and Ahmadnagar regions, which were under the control of the Mughals."
      • [5] "As soon, however, as the Mughal army was withdrawn, Shivaji the Great suddenly raided Junnar and Ahmadnagar and captured a big treasure. He carried away a thousand good cavalry mounts which were at once utilised in raising his cavalry under the control of Netaji Palkar."
      • [6] "Ten years later by 1657, Shivaji had occupied Javli, assaulted Junnar and Ahmadnagar and acquired much treasure."
      I mainly cited the sources which were notable enough, and were baring the title prescribed. Shakib ul hassan talk! 14:26, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It is concerning that you are removing a page solely because of repeated vandalism by a user. Instead of deleting the page, consider locking it to prevent further disruptions.

  •   Delete per NBUSINESSPERSON. There is not SIGCOV of him and he is not known for anything except being CEO of DEKRA. Griff (talk) 22:08, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Keep I disagree with the call to delete the article and will address the unjustified request in detail below:

    Significant coverage
    A quick search on Google News shows that there is significant media coverage of the subject in independet and reputable media. Since Dekra is based and originated in Germany most of this covarage is in German media. For example in renown German newspapers like Handelsblatt ( second Article), Wirtschaftswoche or Stuttgarter Nachrichten (only in paper form; Publishing date: 2022-04-08; Page: 10; Title: Der neue Chef spricht Mandarin; Translated title: The new boss speaks Mandarin )
    Those three traditional and renown German newspapers meet the Wikipedia criteria of reliable sources beyond any doubt and easily verifable by anyone living in Germany.

    The Wikipedia rules explicitly allow non-English sources to prove notability. Since these references are in German and this is the Wikipedia in simple English, it however does not make sense to reference these soruces in this article. (The premise of the simple English Wikipedia is to provide an easy understandable article. Sources in a foreign language would counteract this goal.)

    WP:NEXIST states that "Notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article". It goes on explaining that notability only requires "that suitable independent, reliabe sources exist in the real world; it does not require their immediate presence or citation in an article." It clarifies that "Editors evaluating notability should consider not only any sources currently named in an article, but also the possibility or existence of notability-indicating sources that are not currently named in the article."
    Requesting the deletion of this article on the basis of presumed non-notability or lack of coverage therefore is not valid according to the Wikipedia rules. Significant coverage in independent and reputable sources exist (especially in German), they don't have to be referenced in the article to prove the notability.

    Subject "is not known for anything except being CEO of DEKRA"
    This isn't true. A quick Google search shows that the subject has held speeches on the topic of safety and sustainabilty during conferences like the Hamburg Sustainability Conference 2024 or has been interviewed by media as an expert on these topics.

    Moreover the subject is not only known because he is the CEO of a company, but because he is a Polish-born businessman who is the CEO of a German company!
    Jacek Olczak was the first Pole to ever take the chair of a global company (Philip Morris International) in 2021. Stan Zurkiewicz is only the second Pole to do the same.
    Considering the ongoing animosities between Germany and Poland since World War 2 it is absolutely remarkable and notable that a Polish businessman was nominated as chair of a traditional, conservative and old German company like Dekra. It is proof that old wounds are finaly healing and that the current generation of Poles and Germans are overcoming the damage that has been caused by the previous generation.

    "Company and self promotion"
    This isn't true.
    The Slavic ethnic minority is underepresented on Wikipedia. This article entry isn't self promotion. It is an attempt to raise the representation of Slavic people in the English speaking Wikipedia and to make us more visible. Boguslaw777 (talk) 11:19, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Or an attempt attempt to raise the representation of this person and the entire DEKRA company (a phenomenon also known as advertising) ;). BZPN (talk) 17:30, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I have reviewed the sources provided (in German). It is my belief that none of the comments change my position. Each of the sources focuses on his role as CEO of DEKRA. Put another way, if he was NOT the CEO of DEKRA, would any of the things (such as speaking at a conference) be notable enough for his own article? I would say that the answer is no, speaking at a conference, being the second Polish person to be in charge of a company (and DEKRA is not what I would call an old German company), or being an under-represented Slav are not reasons to have an article on this Wikipedia. If you would like to write about Slavic people, I can give you a list of truly notable Slavic people that need their article improved or created on here.

There are over 2000 clans, but fortunately, not 2000 articles on clans (yet). Griff (talk) 02:40, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Wikipedia:Redirects are cheap I see nothing wrong with keeping these title as they seem to be the official case names. Clearly don't see any reason to delete it.--BRP ever 16:12, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Delete - The short case name, which is what Justia and SCOTUSblog (major law review sites) use, is Colorado Department of State v. Baca or Baca v. Colorado Department of State. That is an acceptable redirect. For this long case title, Google has 4 results for this term, 3 of which are WP results. To me, that indicates that the redirect is a very obscure synonym for the article (R#DELETE point 8) and meets deletion criteria. Note, I do agree with BRP that redirects are cheap, and were this a one-off situation, I also could see a reason to just keep it instead of a 7-day RFD discussion, but I would like to avoid the precedent for mass-creating very obscure redirects. Griff (talk) 16:43, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Delete per Griff, The shorter names are acceptable and are well known, the long title isn't well known and let's be honest no one's got time to type this long-winded title in the search bar, Shorter titles do the job better, --–Davey2010Talk 18:14, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Delete the full case name is generally not used as the identifying name outside of specific legal systems. Web sites that present summaries of cases generally use the short case name as the page name, when mentioned in discussions you usually see the short name only. The article articles *does* include the full case name, so someone doing a copy-paste for search would end up on the correct article. The use of the full case name as a redirect seems to be fairly rare at best here or on enwiki - I checked about a dozen major or recent supreme court decisions and did not find any with a redirect of the full, formal case name. While I agree that redirects are cheap, I think that especially here having redirects that have a chance to be used, that aren't going to turn up in the search results for a page and are used in sources outside of stating the formal case name makes sense. This wouldn't meet any of those. Ravensfire (talk) 20:49, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Keep Naturally I always take the opinion, like BRP, that redirects are cheaper as they do not save on storage space or anything like that. Once it's created, there is not really a benefit of deleting them. I don't want to set a precedent of encouraging redirects like this, per what Griffinofwales has said here or what Chenzw mentioned on a similar case, Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/Chiafalo v. Washington, 591 U.S. 578 (2020), writing the full legal citation as opposed to just the case name. While this is relatively obscure, there is still a slim chance that a user may use this redirect. I appreciate many also mention the search bar in these discussions, I imagine it isn't just me who uses the address bar for finding pages with the assumption it will redirect with what I'm looking for? My point is: If someone is feeling lazy and happens to be reading on a more detailed version of the case and simply copy and pastes it into the address bar on this Wikipedia, they will instead be met with a delete screen, when they could have just been redirected with the same amount of effort. No maintenance needed, no storage space taken up - it's there already, we don't want these things to be created but it's here now, what is the benefit of deleting it? --Ferien (talk) 23:52, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Ferien: there's not even a slim chance that a user could use this redirect (by the way, it's easier to make a typo here than to type it all correctly). And besides, where is the timelessness of this title? After all, it contains the names of current officials. What if they change in a few years? Are we going to keep changing the redirect title every few years? There is no logic in this. This redirect is useless. BZPN (talk) 11:29, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not suggesting they would copy it out manually, I did say copy and paste from a legal document. The current officials will change, but the case was made in 2020 so naturally we are using the names of the officials in the case at the time its outcome was decided. Incoming officials will not be involved/relevant in this case. --Ferien (talk) 13:30, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    If someone pastes the full title into the address bar on enwiki, they get [14] no article found screen, not much better than the deleted page. Incidently, I discovered that the person who created this redirect didn't even bother to create one using the short name. Enwiki doesn't have an article on this case, but does have a redirect (only with the short name) to the same Chiafalo case. It does not have a redirect on the full case name.
