Hello, I've seen your valuable contributions and thoughtful AfD closes, and i appreciate the work you do in this area. I'd like to comment on one of the discussions that was recently relisted. I don't believe a third relist is warranted here. The concerns raised earlier about the article quality have already been addressed in substance. At present, seven editors have !voted keep and only three delete. The nominator has since been banned for sockpuppetry, so their !vote should be discounted. One delete !vote focused on article quality rather than subject notability – but AfD is not a forum for article cleanup, and those issues have since been resolved in substance. Another delete !vote did not provide evidence of missing significant coverage. Given this, I don't see how the outcome can still be "no consensus." Per WP:RELIST, I respectfully request that the relist be reversed. The discussion points lean clearly toward keep, or at worst, no consensus. EmilyR34 (talk) 14:11, 29 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @EmilyR34. Thanks for the feedback. I agree with you about it but At this stage, I think the relist is intended to get final substantive input to ensure a well-settled consensus because thoughts is split between delete and keep. I also looking for the source analysis table which will be helpful while closing the discussions. I also aware about WP:RELIST, but I think it needs extra 7 days more to get consensus. Thank you!

Thanks for your response. The discussion isn't split: seven editors have !voted keep versus three delete, which is effectively two once the nominator's sockpuppet !vote is discounted – a clear keep majority. The deletion‑side points were largely about article quality, which have been resolved in substance, and multiple sources with significant coverage – including analyst reports – have been identified addressing notability under WP:LISTED. I don't see a need to run this for another seven days a further relist is unlikely to add anything new and would be a waste of time, similar to the second relist. Per WP:RELIST, i respectfully suggest reverting the relist and allowing an admin to weigh in that would also be a valuable learning experience. I won't mind if an administrator does choose to relist.

Hi @EmilyR34. Thanks for the clarification. I will revert my action. But still source analysis table would be helpful for determining the outcomes of the discussion. Thank you! Fade258 (talk) 15:25, 29 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
