Adding a new AfD discussion
Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
  1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
  2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Arts|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
Note that there are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
Removing a closed AfD discussion
Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
Other types of discussions
You can also add and remove links to other discussions ( prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Arts.

There is a lack of in-depth coverage in independent, reliable, sources.

  • The book Divine Orchestration: The Story of the Millennial Choirs & Orchestras written by Greg Trimble who says on his website: "I serve on ... the Board of Directors for The Millennial Choirs & Orchestras"; so it's a book from within the organization that Stewart is a co-founder of, about the organization, making this a non-independent source.
  • Another source, that is the most used, is the Millennial Choirs & Orchestras website.
  • There's some mention of Stewart's name in a single local (sub-regional) newspaper article.

I was unable to find anything else. This means that the subject fails the relevant notability guidelines: WP:GNG, WP:BASIC, WP:ANYBIO, and WP:ARTIST (and WP:NBUSINESSPERSON to the extent that it would apply to a non-profit). — Alalch E. 23:31, 23 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

Thank you for your consideration. There is an independent interview with Brandon Stewart from the Daily Herald newspaper in Provo, UT, that is being released in about a week. CEvansMCO ( talk) 13:24, 24 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
Greg Trimble was not appointed to MCO's board of directors until many months after his book was published, so he was an independent source at the time the book was written.
Additionally, this article seems to fall in line with other composer/conductors, such as John Rutter and Mack Wilberg. If approved, I am happy to add compositions and arrangements to the article. CEvansMCO ( talk) 16:41, 24 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
You are welcome to work on the article while this discussion is ongoing. Certainly the most relevant improvement during this period would be to add references containing significant coverage from reliable, independent, sources which demonstrate the subject's notability (according to what this term means on Wikipedia: a test used by editors to decide whether a given topic warrants its own article). Greg Trimble's book can not be considered an independent source because he was, relatively recently, significantly involved with MCO, which Brandon Stewart is a co-founder of; this is not sufficiently WP:INDEPENDENT as it still denotes a close affiliation with the subject. Interviews are also not considered sufficiently independent, most of the time. Interviews are often used as sources on Wikipedia but they are not the type of source that an assessment of notability can rest on.— Alalch E. 23:55, 24 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
  • Delete 4 sources are primary, that leaves 2 sources. The first is a book source, which is not available for viewing so its content cannot be verified or to see even if there is in depth coverage or just a mention. The last citation is just a mention.

Unfortunately those references are not very independent - the first one is mostly based on an interview with the founders, and a large portion of the second was written by the gallery. Regards, MrsSnoozyTurtle 23:40, 12 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

I created the article. Prior to nominating it for deletion, on 25 February 2023, MrsSnoozyTurtle attempted to draftify it. Two editors advised her that the subject was notable. The next day, she left a note on my Talk page accusing me of sockpuppetry. When I asked what prompted the communication, she refused to answer. For the record I have only ever edited from this account.

On 23 January 2023 the subject of the article was connected to Wikidata item Q116312206. This alerted me to the existence of the Wikidata project. Since then I have been studying it so I can contribute to the knowledge graph around the artists of 20th century modernism. The galleries are crucial for historical and knowledge-graph reasons, as they maintain exhibition records, indicate what artists are affiliated, and (its use for commercial purposes notwithstanding) produce important scholarship like the material that MrsSnoozyTurtle seems to be disdaining above as "press releases." (I assume "interviews of articles based on press releases" is a typo.) Recommendation is keep. ImmovableObject ( talk) 16:04, 13 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

dubious notability. Can find virtually no coverage by reliable sources, seems to exist only to promote the subject FASTILY 23:26, 21 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

  • Comment - This is clearly a promotional, CV-like article that requires serious pruning (which I will do after posting this comment). Regarding his notability, a quick BEFORE yielded three notable museum collections that is enough to pass WP:NARTIST (normally two notable museum collection are considered enough). These are: Portland Art Museum [1]; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston [2]; Yale University Art Gallery [3]. I've seen other museum collections online, but haven't yet checked if the institutions are notable enough to mention. Netherzone ( talk) 23:48, 21 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
  • Keep - I've trimmed back most of the unsourced content, promotional content, and content that was solely sourced to his own website. I found a few reviews of his work online (but have not added them to the article at this time). I created a section for three notable museum collections plus citations. He meets WP:NARTIST and may also meet he also meets WP:GNG based on the reviews that exist online and the five that I just added to the article, four of which are WP:SIGCOV, the other a decent mention. Netherzone ( talk) 00:21, 22 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
  • Delete I couldn't find anything that satisfies any of the four criteria under WP:NARTIST, (There are 13,000 artists listed at the MFA for example, so being there is not notable) and main cite is WP:PRIMARY. MetricMaster ( talk) 09:33, 23 March 2023 (UTC) This user has made 47 edits to Wikipedia. Their contribution history shows that 38 of these were to AFD discussions. The account exists for votestacking and has been blocked. Reply reply
    @ MetricMaster, I believe you are misunderstanding the WP:NARTIST SNG. He clearly meets criteria #4d of NARTIST: The person's work (or works) has: (a) become a significant monument, (b) been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) won significant critical attention, or (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.. All three museums are notable per WP standards. The number of artists or artworks in a museum collection has no bearing whatsoever; if it did (by your logic) we would have to discount works held in the Met, the British Museum, Louvre, etc. That the citations for the collections are primary also has no bearing as they are used for verification purposes - searchable museum collections have been used for verification as long as I've been editing. Museum collections are not only curated, the objects in collections are heavily vetted by the institutional acquisitions board. He may also meets WP:GNG, based on the reviews I added to the article, however articles on artists do not have to meet both GNG & SNG. Netherzone ( talk) 17:50, 23 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

Ian MacArthur is not a notable architect. The article also reads like an advertisement or an “About Us” section on a company website.

Note: thecanadianencyclopedia.com is listed as an external link, but the website is offline. Did they shut down?

This is an article that reads like a Sunday supplement promo feature, sourced entirely to articles that read like Sunday supplement promo features. (Honestly, what do you call these things? Some unholy hybrid of press release, real estate catalogue, and architectural fashion shoot? [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]) There appears to be no third-party coverage here that required anyone to do more than paste pre-configured text blocks under a photo gallery.

The cited sources are (1) the organization that runs the temple, and (2) Struggle for Hindu Existence. The latter is a website with no reputation for accuracy or fact checking, and appears biased. Their source is ISKON TRUTH, which also sounds non-independent. In any case, all the second source says about this temple is that a devotee there was investigating an attack at another temple. Searches in English and Bengali found no independent, reliable, secondary sources containing significant coverage of this temple, so it fails WP:GNG, and Wikipedia should not have a stand alone article about it.

Searches in English and Bengali found only routine police blotter coverage of a petty theft from the temple in 2017, and the arrest the next day of the miscreants believed responsible. All we know about this run-of-the-mill place of worship from reliable sources is that it had at least 5 brass idols, 1 stone idol, the equivalent of about US$14 in cash, and a pair of cymbals. Such is not sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time to justify a stand alone Wikipedia article about the temple.

Fails WP:GNG. Sources are all passing references in the small local newspaper, referring to landslide which undermined multiple residences, not just this one. Only more significant sources referenced talk about further landslides in area 30 years after this house was destroyed, don't mention the house at all. Also, can't find any sources that refer to the house as The Chasan Villa. BubbaJoe123456 ( talk) 12:42, 15 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

  • Keep - The naming convention used by this page, The Chasan Villa is in-line with other structures both demolished and standing in Los Angeles. These follow the format [(optional) Article] [Owner] [Structure Type] [(optional) Location], and in the press (e.g. the citation to The Daily Breeze from 1982) "The" is included in the name and the structure is specifically referred to as a "villa," that would make this page follow the structure of: "The Chasan Villa".

    Examples of this naming convention for other notable standing structures are The Barn (Los Angeles), Hills and Dales Estate, Sheats–Goldstein Residence and Don Abel Stearns House, and examples of demolished structures in Los Angeles are Von Sternberg House, Carrillo House, Palomar Ballroom, and Arcade Depot. Noting that the more than 10 sources used in The Chasan Villa article are more robust and directly mention the property more than the sources in any of the above, none of these pages fail WP:GNG so as the The Chasan Villa has more references than these structures and none of its references have failed the reliability and independence test, this article should not fail GNG.

    This is also not true: I added no new content to Roslyn Chasan (made cleanup changes of +91 characters in total or 0.4% of the article as can be seen by its page history) and then completed BubbaJoe123456's request for The Chasan Villa, by adding four additional sources and improving NPOV that BubbaJoe123456 had started. My edits to the article were not the addition of new content as can be seen on the page's history, rather sourcing of content that was already existing on the page. Given the Roslyn page referenced her husband Fred who was also notable, using the sources suggested by Wikipedia's find sources guidelines which directed me to Google, I researched and wrote the initial content for Fred Chasan, a page not in question, which was given a good rating by other editors as noted on its Talk page. 199.192.65.251 ( talk) 00:34, 21 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
  • Keep. The naming of article is fine, not an issue. FWIW i mostly edit about historic places including houses and weigh in on most AFDs about historic houses in the U.S. and worldwide. Photos and existing article are convincing of significance. About former buildings, the argument which always governs is "once notable always notable". I dunno if there's sentiment about this being a rich family's "villa", somewhat of a mansion, as opposed to the attention that might be paid for another's, but the amounts of money involved are part of the substantiveness. And the photogenicity of the house, and availability of photos for use in the article and usage of photos in past coverage are part of the substantiveness too. --Doncram ( talk, contribs) 05:06, 22 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

  • Merge to Moneyrea. The subject title here is Monyrea Primary School which was formed in 1961 according to the school's prospectus. Primary schools do not generally qualify for separate Wikipedia articles. The exception put forward by Necrothesp is based on the buildings extant for Moneyrea National School, located along the road, from which the current school relocated and was renamed in 1961.
If an article is justified it should be under the title Moneyrea National School and concentrate on the buildings architectural merit. Whether the old school buildings are notable enough for a Wikipedia article is debatable as both sources highlighted by Necrothesp state in the evaluation and comment sections that the buildings are not listed architecturally or historically, but do have local interest.
I haven't found anything further to suggest the notability requirements are satisfied. Therefore, unless additional sources are put forward to support notability, my interpretation is that neither WP:N, WP:ORG nor WP:GEOFEAT is satisfied for a separate article and both the current school and the historic buildings can be adequately covered in the Moneyrea village article as suggested in WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES.

  • Delete: Per nom. Completely fails GNG, ORG. Sources are primary and BEFORE showed nothing with SIGCOV addressing the subject directly and indepth. The keep vote is nonsense, if something which might have been located in the same spot is possibly notable write that article, notability is not inherited from buildings that used to be in about the same spot.  //  Timothy ::  talk  07:44, 21 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
    • No, it is not "nonsense". It's the same school. It has just moved up the road and changed its name slightly. The two historic buildings are still there. The history of the school is noted in the article. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 09:15, 21 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
      Nonsense. Orgs are not notable because of locations they formerly occupied.  //  Timothy ::  talk  13:27, 21 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
      <sigh> I'm afraid you're completely missing the point. It's not an organisation. It's a school that is a direct descendant of the schools that occupied nearby historic buildings. I'm not arguing that the school itself is notable. I'm arguing that the buildings are notable. And it is perfectly normal on Wikipedia to have an article on an institution which includes details of historic buildings occupied by the predecessors of that institution on or near the current site. Even if the current institution is not particularly notable, its buildings may be. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 15:18, 23 March 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
  • Delete or possibly merge given the fact that the school itself doesn't seem to be notable. Having articles on primary schools in general is uncommon unless they've received exceptional coverage, which this one hasn't. Fails GNG and ORG as explained above.
