Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Utah

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Utah. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Utah|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Utah. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to US.

Food insurance

This company seems to be defunct, and was probably non-notable from the get-go. The website fails DNS, as do most of the cited sources. Being mentioned in a comedian's bit doesn't count to establish notability. Google search for "food insurance" produces no relevant results, and more focused searches just find this article. Cast it into the fire! -- LWG ^talk 03:12, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Don't see any sources that contribute towards notability. foodstoragereviewer.com was a self-published blog. The best I could find is a brief story from Talking Points Memo and an opinion piece from NYT. Helpful Raccoon (talk) 04:28, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There's the Business Inside piece cited in the article and this piece from The Week: [1], but both of those are more about Glenn Beck than the company itself. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 13:47, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete heavily relies on self published or non reliable sources.

This BLP doesn't feel notable enough for inclusion on Wikipedia. BlunanNation (talk) 14:52, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bands and musicians and Utah. Shellwood (talk) 14:56, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. He has received non-trivial coverage here and here. According to this deletion discussion, Deseret News is independent enough from the LDS Church to be considered reliable, however this subject has been brought up numerous times, such as this discussion in 2016. I would be lying if I said any sort of consensus has officially been reached. Jordano^5³ 18:50, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't call either link as meeting SIGCOV. The former is overwhelmingly of quotes from Murphy, and is plainly an interview of him. The second is a short press release. Ravenswing 20:49, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Latter Day Saints, France, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 20:42, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Tabernacle Choir#Music directors where Murphy is mentioned, with sources and some relevant information which I just added. Couldn't find any additional coverage beyond the one article I included there from Ensign, and I agree with Ravenswing about the lack of SIGCOV from the two Deseret News articles mentioned above. The first piece doesn't even say that much about Murphy, just asks his thoughts on an unrelated incident that happened to take place in his hometown (which of course was a very notable incident, but regardless, the connection is tenuous). Unopposed to a delete without redirect if it is preferred. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 23:28, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect as a reasonable alternative to deleting outright. I find this subject's choir to be treacly and maudlin, but it's very popular (across denominations) and he appears to be in the running to take over as head music director. Bearian (talk) 03:10, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
