This individual has not received significant coverage in reliable sources to warrant a stand-alone article. He is among many people to have to visited most of the world's countries, but this is not particularly exceptional and does not confer notability per WP:BLP1E. gobonobo + c 02:26, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is absolutely not for challenging the "legitimacy" of politicians and their rule. See WP:SOAP.Ratnahastin (talk) 02:52, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! WP:SOAP has five different subcategories. Could you be more specific, please? The article is not about challenging anything, it covers the debate, cites legislative acts. I'd be glad to hear your concerns to make the article better. Steffuld (talk) 08:33, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Right from the start, the article relies on a bunch of op-eds, which are insufficient establish notability. The legal section is just inserted without context. The "private observers" bit is one article weasel-worded into a larger issue. At most, this could be merged into the Zelenskyy article. Cortador (talk) 16:09, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Hello! Thank you for pointing out questionable sources. I've added the Background section to provide the context and rewrote the Other concerns section to cover more sources. Steffuld (talk) 19:44, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Inserting a legal section without context is a WP:SYNTH feature. JFHJr () 02:54, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This subject fails WP:GNG and WP:NARTIST. Marked for COI and primary sourcing issues over 10 years ago, this article's sourcing still consists of 1) coverage about other topics that merely mention the subject, and 2) primary sources. JFHJr () 01:51, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Subject does not meet the WP:LISTN as this is not a grouping discussed in non-primary sources. PROD was declined without a clear rationale, so bringing this to AfD. Let'srun (talk) 02:12, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article has no sources, I cannot find any sources, and the group is possibly defunct given that their website is a dead link. The group's founder may have created this page, given the username. The creator's other article also has cites no sources, though I will attempt to find some before recommending deletion for that as well. Wikipedaen (talk) 00:42, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

NEW NOMINATIONS[edit]

Nominator's rationale: Upmerge. Multiple redundant category layers Mason (talk) 02:45, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Music series[edit]

Nominator's rationale: So it is a video game series titled "Music". "Music series" is a bit to board i think. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 01:54, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Rota (island)[edit]

  • WP:USPLACE does not apply to islands, does it? Besides articles about towns on Saipan are formatted as "town, Saipan", not as "town, Northern Mariana Islands". Marcocapelle (talk) 06:48, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Sexuality-related controversies in film[edit]

Nominator's rationale: After purging, there is a single member of the category (Roman Polanski sexual abuse case). Upmerge to parents for now without prejudice against recreation if it can be appropriately populated. HouseBlaster (talk · he/him) 00:14, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects[edit]

User:67.100.217.179[edit]

I see no good reason to have an IP redirect to a registered User's page. If the IP starts editing again, this will make it difficult to contact them. Nickps (talk) 00:55, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Like the RFD below this one, this 2008-era redirect was created by user:Linas themselves; although the redirect's edit history is more vague as to why, it's easy to assume that it's because this IP was what Linas posted as before they made their account, similarly to Moritheil below. However, again just like the RFD below this one, there's no guarantee that the IP address still leads to Linas themselves-- they could have easily moved to a new location, swapped ISP, or done any of the numerous other methods of getting a new IP in the intervening 15 years since this redirect was created.

It's actually even more clear than that. Linas now edits under a different IP address. This can be seen on their talk page. Nickps (talk) 01:31, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: The edit history indicates this 2009-era redirect was created by user:Moritheil themselves, due to being what they posted as before they made an account. However, there's no guarantee that the IP address still leads to Moritheil themselves-- they could have easily moved to a new location, swapped ISP, or done any of the numerous other methods of getting a new IP in the intervening 15 years since this redirect was created.

Glory Hallelujah[edit]

Fairly common phrase (I thought of Battle Hymn of the Republic); redirect to this relatively obscure song would likely be surprising. May merit a disambig page instead. Rusalkii (talk) 00:27, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
