The usual plot summary and list of appearances, with zero academic analysis or even reception. My BEFORE failed to find anything useful (the best I got is this Screenrant article, and it's mostly rehash of plot summary: ). WP:ATD-R points to a List of DC Comics characters.

- Redirect to Hawkman, where this identity is described in depth. The alias of Hawkman is likely notable, but I doubt Hall is individually notable of the wider identity. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 03:43, 3 March 2026 (UTC)
- Keep Portrayed by Aldis Hodge in Black Adam (2022), generating independent film coverage and analysis. 85-year publication history (1940). Screen Rant and other outlets covered the character's film adaptation in depth. Article needs reception/analysis added per WP:FIXTHEPROBLEM, not deletion. Sparks19923 (talk) 09:39, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Sparks19923 Valnet sources cannot be used to show notability per Wikipedia:VALNET. Just because a character appeared in a film does not mean they are instantly notable, and a smattering of situational sources or ROUTINE coverage would not dispel that notion. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 01:23, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
- Fair point on WP:VALNET; I withdraw the Screen Rant cite and I'm not relying on Valnet for notability.
- The question is whether the character meets WP:GNG / WP:NFC via significant, independent reliable coverage beyond routine cast/plot mentions. There is at least some such coverage: The Hollywood Reporter ran a substantial feature discussing the character's publication history and significance, not just the film appearance (Graeme McMillan, "The Many Lives of 'Black Adam' Hero Hawkman").
- I've also located an EBSCO Research Starters background/reference entry (Hawkman (character)), which may be useful for basic context but I agree it should not be treated as strong evidence of independent notability on its own.
- I'll add these (and continue looking for additional non-Valnet independent coverage) and expand Reception/Analysis accordingly. If, after that pass, the sourcing is still mostly routine/trivial, I'd support a redirect/merge to Hawkman per the suggestion above. Sparks19923 (talk) 01:33, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Sparks19923 Both of these are about the Hawkman identity, largely, and discuss Hall as part of that identity. Most of this is just discussing the evolution of the role overtime, rather than putting significant discussion of Hall separately from Hawkman (Wikipedia:SIGCOV). This seems very much a Wikipedia:NOPAGE situation. Why split Hall out when he's only notable as being one of the identities of Hawkman, and is only discussed within the context of Hawkman's wider history?
- Hawkman is definitely notable, but is Hall independently notable of Hawkman? My wager is probably not. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 04:23, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
- Keep per the claims that were made by @Sparks19923: or merge with Hawkman in the spirit of WP:PRESERVE. Is the person who nominated this page going to go after Katar Hol for AFD as well? --Rtkat3 (talk) 02:49, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
- Redirect/Merge with Hawkman page. Since I had last edited the Hawkman page, I felt pretty confident you could merge both versions of the character into the page and treat it as a immortal warrior reincarnating multiple times. Unlike the Kendra version, which her story includes distancing and being more independent form her past lives, Hawkman in general has consistencies and addressing descrepancies is not out of the question.

Declined PROD but that was my mistake - I should have nominated for speedy deletion under A7 - no indication of importance. Non-notable university administrator. Orange sticker (talk) 09:32, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academics and educators, Sportspeople, and New Mexico. Orange sticker (talk) 09:32, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
- Ryan Berryman is a notable university administrator. He is the athletic director at the University of New Mexico. ~2026-15013-87 (talk) 15:03, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep SK1 nom has provided no rationale for the AfD nom; a CSD would have been even more inappropriate. A quick WP:Before indicates some coverage, no indication that the nom did a proper search. I think the nom is a new, overenthusiastic WP:NPP who is being too hasty.Ldm1954 (talk) 02:13, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- Can you show me which WP:N criteria this person meets? 6c of WP:NPROF states
Lesser administrative posts (provost, dean, department chair, etc.) are generally not sufficient to qualify under Criterion 6 alone, although exceptions are possible on a case-by-case basis (e.g., being a provost of a major university may sometimes qualify)
. I carried out WP:BEFORE and could only find WP:ROTM "man accepts job" type announcements in the press, nothing to indicate the subject had achieved anything remarkable in their field. This reads like a WP:RESUME of a non-notable member of university staff. Orange sticker (talk) 07:20, 10 March 2026 (UTC)- He isn’t just a random university staff member. Ryan Berryman is the Vice President and Director of Athletics at the University of New Mexico, which is the person in charge of the entire athletic department. That’s the top leadership role for athletics at a Division I university. College athletics today especially at the Division I level are major parts of universities and involve large budgets, NIL programs, media deals, and conference relationships. The athletic director oversees all of that. Also, many athletic directors at comparable Division I schools have their own Wikipedia pages, because the role is a major leadership position within university athletics, not a lower-level administrative job like a dean or department chair. ~2026-15013-87 (talk) 15:07, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- Can you objectively demonstrate how they meet WP:ANYBIO or if there is a specialised notability category that applies here? He doesn't meet WP:NCOLLATH and there does not seem to be any WP:SIGCOV of his career as a director, coach or athlete. Orange sticker (talk) 16:10, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- I don't see a pass of WP:NPROF here, and in particular I don't think athletic directors are presumed notable (for that matter, I don't think that they are academics in the sense of NPROF). No opinion on possible GNG notability. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 17:49, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

- Can you show me which WP:N criteria this person meets? 6c of WP:NPROF states
- Weak delete. CSD is definitely inapplicable but we should still discuss notability. There appears to be no grounds for NPROF notability here so we should go with GNG. There is news coverage of him, but it appears to all be centered on him being hired as athletic director (and therefore also leaving his old job), so I think there is a WP:BIO1E issue here. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:04, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
- Marginal Keep. There was previous coverage when he left UNM in 2024 and moved the University of Washington. He was also surprisingly influential as a student trustee back in the 2010s, a position to which he was appointed by the governor.(ProQuest 1778395740, ProQuest 1785201945, ProQuest 1829049926, ). There was an article when he was named associate athletic director at UNM in 2019 (ProQuest 2231518682). Jahaza (talk) 15:14, 12 March 2026 (UTC)
- Weak keep - arguably, VP of athletics is more important for enrollment management than any other administrator, since sports are essential to admissions to a selective university today. Bearian (talk) 13:46, 13 March 2026 (UTC)

No indication of Notability; see this web search which excludes social media. I am not knowledgeable about cricket, but I suspect this should redirect to one of these:

- List of English and Welsh cricket league clubs
- Cheshire County Cricket League

- Redirect to Hyde, Greater Manchester#Cricket. As far as cricket is concerned, it's completely non-notable. But perhaps it would interest WP:CRIMEPROJ? 🤔 Can't believe it's been here over 20 years, Jack (talk) 21:30, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
- That's definitely the case. Back then, it was quantity before quality, and pretty much anything goes as far as notability was concerned. I know I created stuff myself that I wouldn't consider nowadays, ha!
Jack (talk) 12:34, 11 March 2026 (UTC)
- I tried to find old, small, cricket stubs with this Petscan, but I'm rusty with Petscan and for some reason it isn't obeying the 'older than' constraint, but the results are still interesting. Examining the eight articles shows a mixed bag, with some of them having references pointing to other Wikipedia articles, and others to sources with passing mentions about a final score in some match. I learned from that search that some cricket clubs go back to the mid-18th century, and although that is interesting, I don't know if age alone is sufficient to establish notability. If there is no standalone notability for the older clubs, maybe they could be redirected to a section in the History of cricket dealing with early clubs, and list them there. Mathglot (talk) 19:59, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
- I think Bromley, Epsom, Greenwich, and Westminster probably have notability because of their historic status. They were all important clubs in the 18th century, especially Bromley which was Robert Colchin's club. I'm not sure about the South African Army team, but the British Army team seems to be acceptable. South Northumberland and Tynemouth are certainly minor, I think, and I'd support those being redirected to a suitable list. I don't think I've ever used Petscan, and I didn't know it's still available. Jack (talk) 21:52, 13 March 2026 (UTC)

- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Politicians, Politics, United States of America, and Montana. EaglesFan37 (talk) 22:05, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
- This article is proven to be important on the national stage of politics, including the 2026 midterm elections. The page has received immense amounts of contribution since its creation(3 days ago) and has proven to fufill all of Wikipedia's guidelines. @EaglesFan37 CrazyMountainCreator (talk) 23:28, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- @CrazyMountainCreator I wouldn't say that the contributions would be considered "immense". A few users fixed grammar, improved the layout, and corrected one piece of information.
- The article fails WP:NPOL, and the coverage is exclusive to the race and doesn't prove that the politician themself is notable, as per WP:NPOL. EaglesFan37 (talk) 23:37, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- @EaglesFan37 The article falls under the general notability guideline. He, through the 2026 midterms and the 2024 gubernatorial election, has proven to be notable. His time as Vice President of Sales at Kimber Manufacturing also prove the notability. CrazyMountainCreator (talk) 23:42, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- @CrazyMountainCreator The candidate itself needs to prove to be notable if they weren't elected. He has not received WP:SIGCOV in national news sources and has not been elected to a position, so he does not meet WP:NPOL. Being the Vice President of Sales at a company does not meet WP:GNG.

Giffords, an advocacy organization, is not a reliable source. The Montana Free Press's election information is based on primary sources and is therefore not an independent source:

. 🌊PacificDepths (talk | contrib) 21:42, 13 March 2026 (UTC)- @PacificDepths Right now, there are two sources with WP:RS and WP:SIGCOV from before his runs for government, so he may meet WP:GNG.

Mercado appears to fail WP:BIO guidelines on all fronts, with the best independent and secondary coverage about him appearing to be this piece from the Laredo Morning Times about him signing for the Laredo Heat, but it is a fairly routine transfer story.
This is an old article created by me when I was less familiar with notability guidelines, but because of its age and edits from other users I can't nominate it for speedy deletion. Raskuly (talk) 01:16, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

Another non-notable comic character (hundreds done, hundreds more to go, I fear). Plot summary, no analysis/reception, nothing SIGCOV-meeting in my BEFORE. We can ATD-R to List of DC Comics characters: H, I guess. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:12, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

I have been unable to find significant coverage of this person in reliable sources. Most of the sources are media interviews about her work. I do not believe that she independently meets the notability guideline for authors. I removed some promotional content from the article prior to nominating, but I don't think that the sources I removed establish notability. voorts (talk/contributions) 21:57, 9 March 2026 (UTC)

- Delete - for lack of significant coverage. Washington Times, Huffington Post, and Thrive are not reliable sources. The radio shows are basically interviews that fill up dead air time. She seems to be a driven and accomplished person, but not notable. Bearian (talk) 14:48, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
- P.S. The "Caregiver's Story" and legislative committee websites do not contribute to notability, because they are primary sources. Also, I first testified before the New York State Assembly at the age of 24; it's run of the mill. Bearian (talk) 14:56, 13 March 2026 (UTC)

There are serious issues with this page and seem to have been for almost two decades. It is unclear whether the subject passes notability. It seems as though WP:AUTHOR would apply most obviously here, but other than writing a large quantity of books, they don't seem like a significant body of work. In searching for independent sources to establish notability more generally, it doesn't seem as though there are any other than sites affiliated with his particular religious sect, and no news articles from reputable sources.

Nominating this for deletion on behalf of User:Readwritehistory. The original talk page message gave this reason: This biography is non-notable and a lot of the content lists the subject's non-profit as the citation.
