infrastructure article proposed in 1989 and without a completion and creation date. I echo what was said in the first nomination: Wikipedia is not a crystal ball; and articles are created when they are under construction. Iban14mxl (talk) 02:21, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Notability does not expire. Featured on Discovery Channel's Extreme Engineering (2003). 10 years earlier, an article in NewScientist (1993). Proposed ideas can be notable. There are proposed ideas to live on Mars such as Caves of Mars Project (2004), Mars Direct (1996). None of these ideas have happened, and probably never will, but we still have articles for them because they were notable ideas. -- GreenC 02:34, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I am not an architect, but at first glance it is clear that the design is outdated and does not meet the construction requirements, or it could be that this project was replaced by another work. Unlike the hotel and skyscraper started in 1989 in Pyongyang, this work was not even started. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Iban14mxl (talk) 02:44, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I genuinely love the shit out of Kosmic's videos and would consider myself a fanboy, but WP:BEFORE demonstrates that he doesn't meet WP:GNG, WP:BASIC, or WP:CREATIVE. This brand-new article cites an article from UPI, which is a good source. But then the other citation is from Mashable (a dumpsterfire of a source that shouldn't confer notability to anything, although as it barely discusses Kosmic, it wouldn't anyway) about the same exact event that UPI discussed. The UPI article is 108 words in length and barely even talks about Kosmic himself (thus while being reliable and independent, it doesn't confer significant coverage). This is cut-and-dry unless my WP:BEFORE failed to uncover significant coverage from multiple reliable, independent sources. The strongest sources BEFORE turned up are occasional stories like this, but again, this is almost exclusively focused on SMB speedrunning, not Kosmic himself. As someone who loves speedruns and challenge runs and adores seeing them become mainstream, I would want to see this turned into a genuinely robust, useful article using reliable, independent sources, but I don't believe that to currently be possible because of how far short of notability guidelines he falls.

Extreme lack of notability. Stub article. Actual code is just a realization of an idea from a comic strip, and not meant for actual use. Hexware (talk) 15:37, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No significant coverage. Non-notable book. SL93 (talk) 00:58, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Zero sources listed. A random cookbook doesn't need an article

The article was previously deleted following an AfD discussion, where participants deemed it non-notable. I have reviewed the current version of the article and found that the creator has added numerous references that are not relevant to the subject. It appears that the creator is attempting to showcase notability by including a large number of sources, regardless of their relevance. Due to the lack of independent, in-depth coverage, I believe the subject still does not meet the notability guidelines. I propose deletion.–𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 00:57, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No indication of notability. Speedy kept in the dark ages of AfD when "but Alexa ranking" was enough to justify a keep. Single independent reference, nothing RS located on a search. Caveat being that I don't read Japanese, but you'd think there would be something. ♠PMC(talk) 00:32, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty SEO/PR refs, other junk sources about a non-notable artist. The article lacks citations from reliable sources that provide significant, independent coverage. The subject does not appear to meet notability guidelines, as the existing references are primarily promotional or paid content. Tukšumi (talk) 00:01, 18 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A building project was conceived in 1989, but there has been no news of it since 1995. Too much time has passed, and I doubt they'll build it in the coming decades. Iban14mxl (talk) 23:39, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
