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

Non-notable business executive who fails WP:GNG or WP:ANYBIO. Notability is not inherited. Sources are either iffy, are promo, or are lacking substantial coverage of the subject. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 16:51, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Businesspeople, and Nigeria. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 16:51, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Music-related deletion discussions. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 17:11, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep I agree with the nominator that some of the sources lack substantial coverage on the subject, although the Rolling Stone and Music Week references do mention him in slightly more detail. The page was also created on February 1, 2025, one day before it was nominated for deletion, so I would prefer if this article was given some additional time to develop before we proceed any further with deletion. Dobbyelf62 (talk) 17:18, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Almost all the sources are either interview or press releases. They can neither establish WP:GNG nor WP:SIGCOV. Ibjaja055 (talk) 20:23, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, this is a manager of notable singer-songwriters including Tems who has just won a Grammy Award and Omah Lay among notable others. It is this manager that managed Tems from their early career to Grammy Award. This manager meets WP:NBASIC when all sources that discuss him are combined. Some of those sources are here[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. The subject is mentioned multiple times in the sources above. Some of the articles are based on his social media posts suggesting that he is notable and the media keep watch of his social media activities and writing about it. Lacent Pak (talk) 05:50, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If you feel that these sources can further enhance the article, I encourage you to integrate them. However, I worry that the Pulse reference is too gossipy for Wikipedia as it hinges on a tweet that supposedly received some controversy. A few of the other sources you just provided, including the "Dating Rumor" article, are also unlikely to be of much help for similar reasons as the Pulse reference. As such, I would exercise caution to ensure that the content being added is encyclopedic in nature.Dobbyelf62 (talk) 18:22, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Stubify it. I'm the first to line up to get rid of another LinkedIn page of a run of the mill Nigerian business person, or music "producer", or special assistant to the president for outreach to Biafra. But this isn't like that. The subject appears notable, and has significant coverage in respected international media. Managers are not all alike, and some are actually creative artists themselves. Please, don't bite the legitimate newbies. Also, sometimes a shorter stub is better than a longer article with 12 crappy gossip stories from tabloid newspapers and YouTubers. Bearian (talk) 04:24, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Bearian I hardly reply people at AfDs because I respect everyone’s opinion, but can you please clarify who is the “legitimate newbie” and whose action constitutes BITE? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 06:03, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A legitimate newbie is someone who is making a good faith effort to add content, but doesn't know how to add tags or formatting, or how to provide reliable sources. Nominating an article in the middle of edits is a little bitey, when the risk is low in the grand scheme of things here, but I might be wrong here about relative risks. Bearian (talk) 12:20, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Bearian Please be sure of certain comments, I know the efforts I put in welcoming newbies and BITE isn't one of them. I nominated this article 25 hours after it was created and over 16 hours after it was last edited. This article has only been edited once (hours after I nominated it) by the article creator. So, I do not see where BITE is coming from at all, it is a serious comment that requires you to first be sure. Other users usually follow WP:NPPHOUR before acting on articles and the requirement is to wait for at least one hour to pass after creation before draftifying or nominating an article for deletion, that it not the case here. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 12:58, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
My apologies. Bearian (talk) 13:53, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
keep. The available sources are enough to meet at least WP:NBASIC. Mekomo (talk) 14:12, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Tabasco Chocolate

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

It looks like an interesting product, but a WP:BEFORE is throwing up mainly trade magazines. The two sources used are likewise a trade magazine and a non-independent website selling the product. Most of the article is about Tabasco sauce. Can be redirected into Tabasco sauce, no sources mentioning the product appear to exist to justify a DUE merge. Rollinginhisgrave (talk | contributions) 01:42, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Neither of the sources cited in this article has any content about this product anymore, and the content I have found on my own is minimal and not significant enough to justify an article. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:33, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fortran 95 language features

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

Wikipedia is not a website for hosting documentation, manuals, or essays about the features of a particular language. See WP: NOTWEBHOST and not WP: HOWTO. Talk page discussion indicates that this appears to be a mirror of another tutorial page, and thus there might be copyright issues here as well. HyperAccelerated (talk) 01:04, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: If you're here to complain because you personally feel that this content is "useful" (which everyone knows is a terrible argument that wastes valuable volunteer time, per WP: USEFUL), then we can transwiki this content to another place, such as Wikibooks, or selectively merge content to Fortran. Please remember that this AfD is not your soapbox to wax poetic about your purely subjective notion of "usefulness". It is to determine whether it violates Wikipedia policy; specifically WP: NOTWEBHOST, WP: NOTHOWTO, and Wikipedia's policy on copyrighted materials. HyperAccelerated (talk) 01:05, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I would argue that language features are what makes the language what it is. Especially when there are so many other languages out there. Labratscientist (talk) 01:59, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You could talk about histories an all that non-stop, but for some, it is sometimes just down to the features or the support of the language that makes it unique from others. Labratscientist (talk) 02:01, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Jihad Salame

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

Declined prod with additional info added up on competing in Summer Universiade. I don't think that is enough to meet WP:SPORTSCRIT and WP:NOLY. LibStar (talk) 00:18, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople, Olympics, Sport of athletics, and Lebanon. LibStar (talk) 00:18, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, WP:SPORTCRIT is met by the wealth of newspaper sources at [8]. I'll wait for a native speaker to dive in further, but those from Al Anwar seem to indicate the subject was a 1987 national champion which would fulfill WP:NATH as well. --Habst (talk) 01:23, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
