No evidence of notability. Article is based around preprints and blog posts - the RSes are not actually about FDT. A call for RSes on the talk page produced nothing. The article needs RS coverage specifically about the topic - David Gerard (talk) 13:30, 21 January 2025 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Logic, Philosophy, and Mathematics. David Gerard (talk) 13:30, 21 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete Yet another example of the fact that little blue clicky linky numbers do not an article make. We can't base an article entirely on preprints and blog posts. (LessWrong is a group blog without editorial review, Medium is a blogging platform, etc.) A paper from 2007 can't contribute to the wiki-notability of an idea introduced 10 years later. A paper from 1979 is likewise background at best. The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy article that is currently reference #3 makes no mention of FDT, Yudkowsky, or Soares. The 2017 preprint is, well, a preprint on the arXiv, i.e., a self-published source that is primary and the opposite of independent. There are very, very few cases when we can use unrefereed arXiv preprints as sources for anything. For example, we could probably get away with citing John Baez's This Week's Finds in Mathematical Physics as a convenience link for a well-known, standard calculation regarding an established topic, so that readers would have an option that is easier and cheaper to get than a doorstopper textbook. But we couldn't take a topic that Baez invented on his blog and write a whole article about it; the fact that he has written other things that establish his subject-matter expert status would be insufficient justification. Searching for sources that are non-primary, reliably published, and providing significant coverage turns up nothing. The best that the literature offers is passing mentions:
In response, various other one-boxing theories have been developed (see, e.g. Gauthier 1989; Spohn 2012; Poellinger 2013; Levinstein and Soares 2020)
. The closest approach to a usable source is the 2021 monograph by Ahmed on evidential decision theory which notes that FDT has been proposed as a competitor but concludes that it is not a fully baked theory yet:How best to spell this out is not yet clear
;there is currently lack of clarity surrounding the counterfactuals at the heart of FDT
. (The fact that the Functional Decision Theory article right now doesn't make clear that the best available source says that FDT has yet to be developed in a mathematically rigorous way makes this article a violation of NPOV.) Perhaps those brief remarks could be scraped together to justify a few lines in another article, to which this could be made a redirect. That would probably involve improving the decision theory article, which currently doesn't explain either causal or evidential approaches (leaving them to languish in the "See also"). Perhaps an "Other" subsection could be crafted that summarizes the various proposals and counter-proposals in this area. XOR'easter (talk) 18:36, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

There are however some details that could be usefully merged to the articles of one or both of the notable people killed in this accident: Herbert Wigwe and Abimbola Ogunbanjo.

I'm having trouble finding anything to demonstrate that this meets WP:BAND. They only seem to have released one album and an EP, neither of which charted. They only have one notable member. Most importantly of course I can find little substantial coverage in reliable sources. Granted the genuineness of the name makes it difficult, but my WP:BEFORE failed to find any newspaper coverage, or online reliable sources. Some books (e.g. ) include passing mentions, such as a list of other acts Shears participated in. The only semi substantial coverage was a paragraph in The New Trouser Press record guide. But with only on WP:SIGCOV source I can't see how this passes WP:NBAND/WP:GNG Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 11:47, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

The current article relies on just two sources: one from the college itself and the other from the Adani Foundation's website, both of which lack reliability. Upon researching the institution before nominating the article (WP:BEFORE), I found only routine coverage. This clearly indicates that the article fails to meet WP:GNG.

I removed a chunk of copyvio text from the article that had been copied from the first reference . The remainder does not seem to establish notability under any criteria that might apply, e.g. WP:NACTOR, WP:NBUSINESS (as founder of a publishing house), WP:GNG. Although there are many references in the article as it stands, they are all passing mentions rather than WP:SIGCOV. There are no linked articles in other language Wikipedias, and my WP:BEFORE turned up no reliable sources with significant coverage.

Strong Keep. Meets WP:GNG and very obviously notable. This particular strike was mentioned in dozens of WP:RSs. And there is WP:LASTING coverage.

Attaching excerpt:"On the same day, an Israeli airstrike hit a convoy of ambulances, which hospital authorities said were being used to evacuate the wounded, including one outside the entrance of Al-Shifa, killing 15 people and wounding 60 others. Videos from the scene, verified by CNN, showed about a dozen people lying bloodied and motionless. Garlasco, who analyzed the footage, said that cubic fragmentation could be seen on the ambulance door, as well as the clothes of people killed and wounded, which was consistent with aftermath from an Israeli Spike anti-tank guided missile."

Another WP:LASTING mention of the attack four months after the fact by Human Rights Watch:"Human Rights Watch documented a strike by Israeli forces on a marked ambulance outside al-Shifa Hospital on November 3, 2023, which reportedly killed 15 people and injured 60. Ambulances are protected civilian objects under international humanitarian law and cannot be targeted when used to treat wounded and sick individuals, both civilian and combatant. Israeli authorities said they intentionally struck the ambulance, contending that it was being used to transport able-bodied fighters. Human Rights Watch investigated these claims and did not find any evidence that the ambulance was being used for military purposes."

- Article is about the strike, the witness, talk of a war crime, then extended coverage about organizations offering an opinion on the event. We need to see WHY this is important, not WHAT people saw or how it made them feel. There's more in the "reaction" section than about the actual incident...

- I don't think this is going to get deleted but the CNN reference that treats events around Al-Shifa during the war as essentially a single matter (i.e., they're all covered in a single chapter under a single heading) is a good sign-post as to how this should be treated. Once the heat dies down around this conflict probably we should look at merges. FOARP (talk) 11:25, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

- Keep This event meets GNG. It was covered extensively in RS when it happened and has been mentioned in reports about attacks on healthcare multiple times between 14 Nov 2023 to 31 Dec 2024. See: HRW, HRW 2, CNN, Journal of Palestine Studies, Forensic Architecture, MSF, UN. The airstrike was witnessed by the journalist Bisan Owda and her coverage was mentioned in December 2024 and May 2024 by New Arab and the Peabody Awards. Photos of the aftermath of the attack have appeared with captions in December 2023 and March 2024 in NPR and Mondoweiss Rainsage (talk) 08:50, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
- I don't favour straight deletion of this but it should be pointed out that HRW is a charity, not news media, they are not independent of the topic. The CNN reference is better, but they clearly treat all the attacks around Al Shifa during the period as a single topic and possibly we should too (e.g., merge them to a single article). The Journal of Palestine Studies article gives this specific attack just a couple of sentences as far as I can see. Forensic Architecture is also an advocacy/investigation group - they're not independent of the topic, and so don't indicate notability. Ditto MSF and the UN - NGOs and international government organisations are not independent of the topic. Photos also aren't significant coverage. WP:GNG isn't the relevant standard - WP:NEVENT is which is why we're looking for WP:LASTING coverage, and even if it is notable we may still merge per WP:PAGEDECIDE. FOARP (talk) 19:08, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- I have not heard before that HRW, UN, MSF, and Forensic Architecture don't indicate notability. Can you point me to the relevant[REDACTED] policy?
- If I had to choose a place to merge this article to, I think that Al-Shifa Hospital siege is the best choice.
- Many of the sources I cited seem to treat the airstrike and the siege as a single topic, as does this Misbar article from Feb 2024 Rainsage (talk) 05:26, 22 January 2025 (UTC)
- The relevant Misplaced Pages policy is WP:GNG, particularly the requirement that the source be independent of the topic. See also WP:NEVENT. Charities reporting on their own work, or advocacy groups reporting on their own advocacy, or investigation groups reporting on their own investigations, are not sufficiently independent of the topic to indicate notability of it (i.e., they would tend to report on it even if it weren't notable). They are of course potentially useful for verifying facts in articles whose notability is already established. FOARP (talk) 15:03, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

FOARP (talk) 19:08, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep: The basic premise of the filing is simply false. Aside from the significant breadth of the coverage, it was already covered WP:INDEPTH as early as 7 November by HRW as a potential war crime. It was then mentioned again on 14 November by HRW, so already much more than "a day or two" after, and the coverage has only continued from there. It is mentioned in this 22 January paper in the Springer journal of Intensive Care Medicine. Rainsage flags many more instances of subsequent analytical coverage. If a WP:BEFORE check was indeed performed for this page with 35+ RS references, it must have been perfunctory and ineffectual. Iskandar323 (talk) 09:19, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
- Comment - Does being referred to by Medecin San Frontieres or HRW count as actual coverage in a reliable source for analysing notability - these are both advocacy groups/charities, right? I'd be looking for SIGCOV in a reliable, notability-indicating source a few months out from the event to show WP:LASTING, not just a mention. Do we have that? The Springer reference seems better, but it's' still just one paragraph as far as I can see, which is borderline for WP:SIGCOV. I can see two paragraphs in the CNN article (one long, one very short) which is again a bit borderline.
- I'm inclined to give this one the benefit of the doubt since at some point history books are going to be written about this war and this is likely to get a paragraph or two in them. I just don't think we should be treating the output of NGOs and aid-agencies as if they were news sources when analysing notability: accurate or not, their coverage does not indicate notability because they aren't independent of the subject matter.
- Long term probably the events around Al-Shifa can be bundled in to a single article for more encyclopaedic coverage (this is how the CNN and Springer references essentially treat it) but that's not an issue for AFD. FOARP (talk) 11:15, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

- Comment. The Springer article talks about an attack on a hospital, our article about an attack on a convoy. Al-Shifa is mentioned in both and the date matches so I suppose that both try to address the same. That said, is the Springer article individually (as Springer is a good publishing house) a reliable source? I do not see that the article is quoted by us. Also why is our article called Al-Shifa ambulance airstrike if the attack was on a convoy? Not saying any of this must be wrong; just trying to understand some more before forming an opinion. There are a lot of variables in the mix. gidonb (talk) 01:03, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- Notability is based on the sources that exist on a topic both on the page and out there in the ether. This is noted explicitly at WP:BEFORE. Re: convoy Vs ambulance, it was a convoy of ambulances, so there is no contradiction there. Ambulance is just not recognisable, while convoy is rather ambiguous. Iskandar323 (talk) 21:34, 18 January 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for responding! I understand and appreciate that there are many sources from the time this happened, however these sources do not refute the concerns of the nominator. Nominator makes the case of NOTNEWS and LASTING, known concerns with events that are not solved by the GNG. The Springer article is the main argument supporting a LASTING impact, however, it is very different from our article and it may not be a good source itself (not withstanding the Springer reputation.) Next, how was this attack on a convoy of ambulances the Al-Shifa ambulance airstrike? Not clear from the article, the references, the sources, or from your appreciated (!) response. It strengthens the case of NOTNEWS. gidonb (talk) 00:14, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

The event described was horrendous, but per WP:PAGEDECIDE, Sometimes, a notable topic can be covered better as part of a larger article, where there can be more complete context that would be lost on a separate page.

One may argue that he is more notorious than notable, but he is still well-known enough to warrant a Misplaced Pages page.

- Yes, thank you, Geschichte. An "alternative to deletion", through merging, redirection or draftification, serves to preserve some of the content, at least in the page history if not elsewhere but also removes a standalone article from main space. For example, we have many articles that are written about non-notable songs and those articles are often merged or redirected to the article for the album. I hope this explains the shorthand, "ATD".

Fails WP:NFILM. Some sources are simply the trailers, and nearly all of the cited reviews are listed as generally unreliable on WP:ICTFSOURCES (123telugu, IndiaGlitz, FilmiBeat), or don't provide enough coverage (Telangana Today). No idea about the reliability of the 10tv.in review, but the theprimetalks.com source looks more like a blog. It is entirely possible that I missed some coverage in Telugu, so please ping me if more sources are found. ARandomName123 (talk) 04:36, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

- Redirect to Arvind Krishna (actor): A film requires two full-length reviews to pass WP:NFILM. We have one from Filmibeat which although considered an unreliable source, was written by a seemingly reputable journalist, Rajababu A. There is another review from NTV which has a byline. The remaining reviews available online do not have bylines. I believe the film was released during COVID19, so there'll be less coverage compared to others. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 07:37, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
- Hey, @ARandomName123 This is Sazh, and I had the privilege of working with team of Shukra. As noted, the film was released during the COVID-19 period, which significantly impacted its promotional activities due to limitations faced by the PR and digital marketing teams, and my sincere thanks to @Jeraxmoira for identifying the review from NTV. Considering these unique circumstances and the challenges in sourcing comprehensive reviews for the film, I kindly request you to review the provided sources and issue the clearance!

- It is not advisable to create articles in which you have a conflict of interest, nor is it advisable to reveal your identity. The promotional activities by PR and digital marketing teams will likely have no impact on a film's notability because the criteria for inclusion are very different.

- @Jeraxmoira I understand the concerns regarding conflict of interest and the importance of adhering to Misplaced Pages's neutrality and notability guidelines. My intent in mentioning the promotional challenges was to provide context about the film's limited media coverage during its release period, not to justify its inclusion based on PR efforts.

He is listed at the company website: , but with no supporting info ("Read More" leads nowhere). I can find no information from the label about any promotion of his releases or if they even released anything by him yet, despite what this article says. Meanwhile, he has no coverage in reliable music media and his stuff remains self-released on the usual platforms.

But I see those additional criteria more as something that strengthens a case (and a reason to expect that we might find significant coverage).

Because the contents are pretty much identical (side-by-side presentation of data on participants at the Big Four international beauty pageants, even with identical formatting and all) consensus is pretty much rock solid for deleting them as WP:IINFO and WP:SYNTH, and due to the consensus shown by the Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Belize at major beauty pageants precedent and 100+ subsequent debates over similar "Country at major beauty pageants" articles, some links at Special:Permalink/1036690997, Special:Permalink/1037877047, and Special:Permalink/1038545583 especially 87 pageant country articles bundled under Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/France at major beauty pageants.

- I lean delete. I appreciate the friendly citation to my comments on the other AFD; I think this case is more difficult. The connection between the search term and the targets is a bit thin. The disambiguation page currently says that 美州 is abbreviation for the two blue links, Mino Province and Mimasaka Province. According to the corresponding Japanese Misplaced Pages pages, ja:美濃国 and ja:美作国, their usual abbreviated names are 濃州 and 作州 respectively, while the alternative 美州 wouldn't distinguish them well. I don't know how accurate that information is, as I'm not familiar with these topics and not sure where to verify any of this. It's believable, at least. Overall a non-English term for a disfavored abbreviation starts to sound pretty obscure. Adumbrativus (talk) 08:26, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

- Keep. The fact that the original poster is ignorant of the existence or significance of the album in a language he is ignorant of so he can't understand the listed sources about an album that went DIAMOND - is not an argument nor reason for deletion of a perfectly functional article. In fact, it is elitist, privileged and borderline racist. Hint: English is NOT the only language on the planet nor is English speaking world be-all end-all of culture and history. E.g. Original poster maintains a whole list of articles about people who, were they Nigerian instead of British, would be considered non-notable - the tenth Chief Medical Officer of the Home Office of the United Kingdom is not even a pop-quiz question, it is dust in an archive. But he was British, so it is notable. Were he from Yugoslavia the article would already be deleted. 109.175.105.19 (talk) 23:37, 22 January 2025 (UTC)
- It's unfortunately true that the English Misplaced Pages has a systemic bias in favor of North American or Western European subjects, but reliable sources are not optional.
- That being said, you raise a good point about music certification, specifically criteria 2 and 3 in WP:NALBUM. Can you point to one reliable source, as defined in WP:Reliable sources, that states that the album appeared in a country's national music chart and/or it received a gold or higher certification? If so, I might switch to a keep or a merge to Zana (band) per WP:NALBUM:
Notability aside, a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged into the artist's article or discography.
- I'll also leave a separate message on your talk page that's not related to the article. --Richard Yin (talk) 02:12, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Stations and Turkey. Chidgk1 (talk) 16:03, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Chidgk1: I stumbled upon the article out of luck, and fail to see how it is not notable. In general, a railway station on a mainline is often enough to warrant an article on itself — especially if the system is a major one, like Marmaray or in this case IZBAN, there is almost always a coverage on the Commons & newspapers. Not having any sources on the article doesn't make it non-notable automatically, there are few but growing interest about maintaining transportation articles these days. And the article had been expanded and cited now, thanks to the efforts of @Central Data Bank and @Erdem Ozturk 2021. Strong keep I'd say. ahmetlii (Please ping me on a reply!) 15:44, 13 January 2025 (UTC)

This strikes me as an non-encyclopedic cross-categorization per WP:CROSSCAT; perfectly appropriate for a category but failing WP:NLIST under WP:NOTDATABASE and WP:INDISCRIMINATE given the massive volume of potential entries in this list.

- Keep, the list can be made manageable, for example, by limiting entries to works that are notable enough for their own article. As a topic, it seems relevant that Ukrainian literature has historically been isolated and received limited English translation until it received more international attention following the Crimean invasion in 2014 and has been increasingly translated into English.

This list fails WP:NLIST as there is no evidence (here or in WP:BEFORE search) that independent, reliable sources discuss the entertainment (or any other) events taking place at this sports complex as a group.

This article about a 2019 film was previously deleted at AfD, then later re-created with more sources, but the sources still don't establish notability per WP:NFILM. All of the works in the Bibliography section are about real-life aircraft and all of them were published 18 years or more before this film came out, meaning that they could not have any content about the film. Five of the 14 footnotes are to IMDb, which is not considered a reliable source (see Misplaced Pages:IMDB). Three of the other footnotes -- Naval History and Heritage Command, Hall of Valor Project, and a book by Barrett Tillman -- pertain to the real-life events this film was based on, not to the film itself. UCM.ONE is the website of the film's distributor in the German-speaking world. Rotten Tomatoes is a reliable source (see Misplaced Pages:ROTTENTOMATOES), but it's being used to cite the fact that the film has been reviewed by no critics they keep track of. The review from "That Moment In" appears to have been taken down from the website which is not a major review site anyway. The purported review from "Flickering Myth" is not a proper review; it's tagged as "News" by Flickering Myth, not as "Reviews". That leaves only two sources I haven't dismissed yet: a page from The Numbers with estimated DVD sales and a review on a blog about naval air history. I don't think this is enough to pass WP:NFILM. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 02:22, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

- The first AfD had identified a review by David Duprey at That MomentIn apparently? Were you able to check it? What about a merge into the article about the battle? (2-3 sentences in a bottom section; the film is listed in the See also section, the film having a rather notable cast)? Thanks. -Mushy Yank. 17:09, 21 January 2025 (UTC)
- Yes, the review by David Duprey is still mentioned in the article. I found it archived here. However, That Moment In has taken the review down -- see this search which finds nothing -- and is not a particularly significant website anyway to my knowledge. The more prominent films Midway (1976 film) and Midway (2019 film), both of which have much more notable casts and actually received theatrical releases, aren't discussed in the Battle of Midway article, just listed in the "See also" section, so I don't believe that this film should be discussed there either. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:48, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

- Comment: I think I found a review or two - honestly, this is a good example of why it's so important to represent sources accurately and not stuff an article full of puffery. That can do more to damage the chances of an article surviving than anything. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 15:20, 22 January 2025 (UTC)

- I looked at the Duprey review - whomever wrote the reception section greatly misrepresented what was written. He didn't say it was bad, but the guy didn't really praise much about the movie either, as he found it generally forgettable. Looks like the other source I thought I had was just a trailer post. I'll keep digging, though. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 15:30, 22 January 2025 (UTC)

- Weak keep or redirect. This really, really pushes the boundaries of what is considered to pass NFILM. The reviews are OK, but not the strongest, and the only other sources is an article about the movie releasing (and a borderline WP:TRIVIAL source at that), a database page of home video sales, and a page that looks to be a general database type listing of the film. I do have to restate my earlier bit about the puffery - while the sourcing (that's actually about the film) is very weak, it would likely have not been as heavily scrutinized if it wasn't filled with some mild puffery. On a side note, I did find this Screen Rant source that lists it as one of the top 10 mockbusters per IMDb, but it doesn't give any info on how they compiled the list so I'm a bit reluctant to include it in the article.

Expected to make her mark
is not a criterion for notability, and the article can always be recreated in the future when/if she meets the threshold. Dclemens1971 (talk) 14:51, 22 January 2025 (UTC)- @Dclemens1971 The “expected to make her mark” was part of me summarising the article for those who refuse to use google translate rather than my opinion, but sure, here’s another article by a different outlet, also a profile of her as a new member of the national squad. Whereas This article is more a profile of her domestic career. I’m thinking three articles should maybe be enough? But honestly, the idea that a professional football player, who has already played at junior international levels, and is then called up to the national squad wouldn’t have gotten enough coverage along the way, even if they are a woman, seems unlikely to me just in general, especially given the “coverage only needs to exist, not to be currently cited in the article as written”.

Comment. He seems to have several authored/edited academic books with respectable citations (eg Reshaping planning with culture (Routledge; 2008), The Routledge Research Companion to Planning and Culture (editor; Routledge; 2016)) and there are several other books listed in the article -- most likely source of notability will be as an author. ETA: The article highlighted in the article looks to be "The culturization of planning" (in Planning Theory, 2008) which has 52 citns in GS; I don't know the area well enough to know if that's significant or not. Espresso Addict (talk) 01:59, 21 January 2025 (UTC)
- In addition to the 3 reviews below for Reshaping Planning with Culture there is JSTOR 26165901; the co-edited Ashgate/Routledge Research Companion to Planning and Culture (most citns are of the Ashgate edition) has doi:10.1177/0739456X16675470 & doi:10.1177/0265813515620979 (via Ebsco).

- Delete. Seems like it charted at #1 for about ~1 week in Sweden, and remained in top #100 for a little while after that. I did find a short write-up of this song in particular in the Göteborgs-Posten, and it's also given a passing mention in a few tabloid articles about the musician in general. Does not seem to qualify for multiple, independent sources of sigcov. InsomniaOpossum (talk) 03:53, 22 January 2025 (UTC)

Interesting idea which received some news coverage and a grant of 100k, but I don't see any evidence that it was picked up by any companies/organizations/entities, or even individual people. All the coverage I can find dates back to 2010-2012. No lasting impact. P.S. sorry about 'indiscernible' category, not sure if this falls under product or technology?

Likely hoax or misreading of sources. I searched in English Arabic and Turkish and found no sources at all. Creator has a record of writing dubious battle articles that get deleted.

- Comment There is no need to post a twitter link to a photo of a page of a book if the book is published by a respectable publisher. There will generally be a google books version and sometimes other online-readable or downloadable versions. If you post links to those in this discussion we can all review them. There are plenty of people who can read Turkish in English Misplaced Pages. Mccapra (talk) 07:41, 18 January 2025 (UTC)

Fails to meet WP:N. I have been unable to find any significant coverage in reliable sources. The article's sources are mostly the subject's own works along with an article that quotes the subject a single time. Should be deleted per WP:GNG. --Helleniac (talk) 22:46, 13 January 2025 (UTC)

WP:NOTDIRECTORY that fails WP:NLIST. Lists such as these are hard to maintain since local offices frequently change. -1ctinus📝🗨 00:24, 21 January 2025 (UTC)
- delete per WP:NOTDIR and as the nominator says, just common sense: it's likely to be inaccurate. Also, one does wonder where the sourcing is.... Mangoe (talk) 03:13, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

- Delete. We've established a consensus against this kind of thing (see e.g. Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of current mayors in Oklahoma, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of mayors in Alberta, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of council leaders in the United Kingdom), precisely because (as noted above) the information can become quickly outdated: it's likely to get updated quickly if a mayor of Casper or Cheyenne resigns or dies, because that would almost certainly be reported as news widely enough that somebody will see and update it promptly, but mayoral changes in small towns like Byron, La Barge or Ten Sleep are much more likely to get missed due to a lack of widespread coverage and attention. We've routinely seen that when such lists have been attempted in the past: the major cities whose mayoral changes get reported by major media as news get updated promptly when a mayoral change occurs, but the small towns whose mayoral changes only get reported in the local pennysaver without making it into major media do not, causing the list to quickly become inaccurate and out of date — so we just don't do this, because we can't guarantee the ability to stay immediately on top of every future change for every place in the list.

This reads as a WP:RFORK of Xenophobia and racism related to the COVID-19 pandemic with respect to the section on Asian-Americans in the United States, and is a implausible redirect. Barely different enough to not qualify for WP:A10. -1ctinus📝🗨 00:09, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

- Comment, yes, this article misses the mark. If anyone is interested in this area, they should also take a look at the article of which it's a WP:RFORK, Xenophobia and racism related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The main article, instead of being a good overview of the background, the interaction of xenophobia/racism and covid during the pandemic, governmental responses to the xenophobia, sociological issues that arose from it, etc. (with links to good secondary sources), is just a random rag-bag of headlines grabbed from newspapers as the pandemic unrolled (note the copious use of present tense, and sentences referring to "now", "has been charged" etc. instead of indicating when the event happened). It contains such treasures as: "On 30 January 2020, a postgraduate student walking alone while wearing a face mask on West Street in Sheffield city centre, towards the University of Sheffield, was verbally abused and nudged by three people." - no doubt a horrible experience for the person who got nudged, but I'm not quite sure what it's doing in an encyclopedia.
