Ferdinand Oliver Porsche

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

Lacking in sources and no indication of claimed entrepreneurship. Sits on Porsche and Volkswagen boards, most likely due to his family connections as the great-grandson of Ferdinand Porsche. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:32, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AppShield

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

AppShield the product does not appear to independently establish notability beyond Sanctum, the company that created it. As a testament to that the version of the article prior to my edits describes three different products or research projects entitled AppShield, all erroneously presented as a single topic.

Aeroflot Flight A-53

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

Per WP:GNG and WP:EVENTCRIT: There exists no reliable independent (significant) news coverage of the event, no secondary sources, no in-depth coverage, no (sustained) continued coverage, no demonstrated lasting effects nor long-term impacts on a significant region of the world that would make this event notable enough for a stand-alone article.

Darius Yuen

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

BLP of a successful businessman and philanthropist lacking in depth independent coverage. Non-notable awards, Forbes and routine coverage of career moves. Does not seem notable. Mccapra (talk) 07:24, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Businesspeople and Hong Kong. Mccapra (talk) 07:24, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Startup Britain

AfDs for this article:

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

Fails WP:ORGCRIT. Created as promo. AfD a decade ago closed as no consensus and there's been no improvement since. A campaign which appears to have had little lasting impact after initial routine news coverage. Website is now dead. Huge sections of unverifiable text. AusLondonder (talk) 07:14, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Aliheydar İbragimov

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

I’m not sure this military commander is notable, though much decorated. The Azerbaijani site has no sources at all, and the sources in the Russian article are very scanty. If nobody can find anything else more solid I think deleting would be appropriate. Mccapra (talk) 07:11, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tony Schaller

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

I can't find any trace of meeting WP:GNG. The lyrical competition of the Olympics is probably not the venue that would make a writer notable. It can be confirmed that Antoine Schaller wrote lyrics based on Hippolyte Ackermans [fr], being one of 30 names - with surnames starting with S, that is - mentioned in a large list. I can find nothing but WP:PASSING mentions elsewhere; both Google and Google Books throw around a lot of namesakes from our time. Geschichte (talk) 06:58, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Morrison Hashii

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

Having played 2 minutes in Singapore, for a community college and in the English non-league, this player has not picked up significant, independent coverage to meet WP:GNG and WP:SPORTCRIT. Geschichte (talk) 07:01, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yogananth Andiappan

AfDs for this article:

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

There's no more indication of notability this time than there was last time, as far as I can tell. The SCMP article doesn't even seem to mention the article subject. I can't see any indication of how it might meet BASIC. Alpha3031 (t • c) 04:24, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lecture room (disambiguation)

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

Unnecessary per WP:DIFFCAPS and WP:SMALLDETAILS, none of the disambiguated titles overlap or conflict with each other. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 04:15, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Disambiguations-related deletion discussions. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 04:15, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. WP:DIFFCAPS and WP:SMALLDETAILS are guidelines of Wikipedia:Article titles, not of Wikipedia:Disambiguation. Even WP:DIFFCAPS and WP:SMALLDETAILS clearly state that readers are guided as swiftly as possible to the topic they might reasonably be expected to be looking for, by such disambiguation techniques as hatnotes or disambiguation pages (italic added). Lecture room (disambiguation) has three disambiguation entries, lecture room, Lecture Room, and The Lecture Room, which only differ in capitalization and the definite article (the) and should be included on the disambiguation page. --Neo-Jay (talk) 06:57, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Neo-Jay's argument and the "See also" to near-synonym lecture hall. The reader will be helped by this dab page. PamD 07:35, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Embassy of South Korea, Ankara

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

Fails WP:ORG. Only 2 primary sources provided. A search for sources found incidents like this which don't really add to notability. https://www.turkiyetoday.com/turkiye/south-korean-ambassador-jeong-yeondoo-prefers-yht-for-ankara-trip-539/ LibStar (talk) 03:50, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Embassy of Algeria, London

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

Fails WP:ORG. 2 directory listings provided as sources. A search for sources only came up with this incident which doesn't really add to notability. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c977qndxndxo LibStar (talk) 03:46, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Letter of the law (disambiguation)

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

Unnecessary DAB page - see WP:PTM for why. None of the disambiguated pages are solely called "Letter of the law" or even "Letter of the Law". ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 02:28, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Law and Disambiguations. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 02:28, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. WP:PTM does not indicate that this disambiguation page should be deleted. Letter of the law (disambiguation) has three disambiguation entries, each of them is legitimate. 1. Letter of the law redirects letter and spirit of the law, which should be a disambiguation entry at Letter of the law (disambiguation). 2. The Letter of the Law has article "The", and "The plus disambiguation term" should usually be included on the disambiguation page for the disambiguation term (see Wikipedia:Disambiguation#Partial title matches ( WP:PTM): For instance, the Mississippi River article [...] is included at Mississippi (disambiguation) because its subject is often called "the Mississippi"). 3. Takeru: Letter of the Law's subtitle is Letter of the Law, and a work may often be referred to by its subtitle. Furthermore, I have added a link to Wiktionary:en:letter of the law into this disambiguation page. --Neo-Jay (talk) 06:40, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wright Investors' Service Holdings, Inc.

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

Fails GNG. There’s a news article about them donating some dam properties but that’s it. Northern Moonlight 03:20, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: There is a very detailed article about this company's history at Cengage / encyclopedia.com under its previous National Patent Development Corporation name. The end of that article also includes a list of sources (on paper). AllyD (talk) 08:55, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
