An extended dictionary definition. Includes a number of quotations, a couple of which are already in the perfectly good Wiktionary entry, and some usage notes, but no indication of significant coverage of the word itself as a subject. Search engine results are largely dictionary definitions and lists of unusual words. Opus 113 (talk) 06:16, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I removed some unverified and unsourced content from the page. It was already a stub, and now it's even shorter. Deletion seems to be the most appropriate option.–𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 01:05, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There are some references on the Uzbek wiki (uz:Al-faruq) that look promising, but I can only access this one. I've added some context. It could be notable; I lean towards keep. I realized that those sources are considered unreliable by the nominator who removed them recently. Would be useful to know why they are unreliable, but I trust your judgment since I can't read them.

@Reconrabbit: I initially added the sources while working on the Bibliography of Shibli Nomani. Although they are reliable, they are not directly relevant to the text, which is why I chose to remove them. However, if you find them useful, you're welcome to incorporate them. There is no shortage of credible sources available online. The primary concern is that, in its current state, this article does not meet the standards required for a standalone entry.–𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 20:19, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The linked source from the Journal of Islamic Studies and Humanities dedicates about two pages to this book, which led me to believe it was worthwhile to use it. If it does not meet the standards for an article on a book, it could be redirected back to Shibli Nomani until someone compiles more substantial information.

This article has been tagged for original research, unreliable sources, and unverified content since 2018. Although I have attempted to address these concerns, the article remains poorly sourced and lacks sufficient content to stand as a standalone page. I propose a redirect.–𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 02:09, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This article lacks notability - specifically, reliable, secondary sources that are not just interviews. WormEater13 (talk) 02:28, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. As the nominator says, its the article that lacks citations, not the organization that lacks notability. I have added a half-dozen citations from reliable 3rd party sources and will continue to work on it until the nominator is satisfied. Freechild (talk) 19:30, 6 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A large majority of the new sources that you've added to the article are interviews with individuals closely connected to the subject, and upon searching for notable sources about the subject, I can only seem to find primary sources. There's also many citations that you've added that don't have URLs. For example, one source you linked is the CEO of Youth Service America (Steve Culbertson) announcing that he will be speaking at his alma mater for a keynote, which is a clear connection to the subject, and is also not related to Youth Service America.

Declined prod with no attempt to add additional sources. Lacking third party in-depth coverage to meet WP:SPORTSCRIT. LibStar (talk) 04:42, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Subject lacks the needed WP:SIGCOV to meet the WP:GNG, with only database sources in the article. All I could find about this Olympian through multiple searches was a article from historian Paul Tchir, noting that while Wing participated in the Olympics nothing else is currently known about him, with not even a date of birth available.

Random hodgepodge of references to random locations. Fails WP:OR and WP:SYNTH and utterly lacks focused WP:SIGCOV to establish WP:RS. Longhornsg (talk) 04:00, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Subject lacks the needed WP:SIGCOV to meet the WP:GNG, with only database sources in the article. All I could find about this Olympian through multiple searches was a article from historian Paul Tchir, noting that the fact that Kee participated in the Olympics but very little is known about any other aspect of his life. A redirect to Burma at the 1956 Summer Olympics may be a suitable WP:ATD. Let'srun (talk) 03:45, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No indication of notability for this early century footballer. I dug through some Spanish archives and found some trivial mentions in publications like Mundo Deportivo (1), La Vanguardia (1), La Patria (1), Gran Vida (1), Sport (1, 2, 3), El Mundo (1), Heraldo Deportivo (1), and El Sol (1), but never anything approaching WP:SIGCOV. Seems like a WP:SPORTCRIT fail. JTtheOG (talk) 02:17, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
