Proposed deletion of George_Iordanidis

edit

Hello, Jordanjounior. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, George_Iordanidis, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want George_Iordanidis to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you need help doing so, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Thanks, Kaldari (talk) 20:11, 27 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of George Iordanidis

edit
 

The article George Iordanidis has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Speedy deletion nomination of Meropi Iordanidis

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Meropi Iordanidis requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. ModelUN (talk) 20:40, 31 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Transfermarkt

edit

Since most of its content is user-generated, Transfermarkt is not a reliable source. Please don't cite the website in articles as you did with Georgios Iordanidis. Thank you. Sir Sputnik (talk) 23:48, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Understand though, I did not use this site as a citation in any of these paragraphs. It is added simply as an external link thus is not a supporting reference or evidence of the document. It is just there to connect media sources concerning this person online. So where is the actual problem on it's existence? Thanks. Skycraper (talk) 00:09, 4 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Two issues: First the guideline issue in that Transfermarkt falls squarely within scope of point 1 of Links normally to be avoided. Any site that does not provide a unique resource beyond what the article would contain if it became a featured article. There being a plethora of other stats websites out there it is not a unique resource and most of the content of a Transfemrarkt profile should be in the article, provided it can be reliably sourced. Second, is the risk of abuse. We've had serious problems in the past with people adding incorrect information to Transfermarkt for the express purpose of later adding it to Wikipedia. Given the gravity of this problem, there's a fairly strong consensus against allowing it even as external link. You'll note here that despite some 3000+ links to Transfemarkt on the 'pedia, none of them are in article namespace. I hope that clears things up. Sir Sputnik (talk) 00:44, 5 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
