Joemy Wilson

Joemy Wilson (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable musician. Only ref is archived here, notes only "appointed to fill a vacant seat on TGHS’s Board of Directors in January 2017." No significant hits in web search. HalJor (talk) 02:12, 30 July 2026 (UTC)

• Note: this discussion has been included in the list of Bands and musicians-related AfD discussions. HalJor (talk) 02:12, 30 July 2026 (UTC)

• Note: this discussion has been included in the AfD sorting lists for the following topics: Women and Connecticut. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 02:33, 30 July 2026 (UTC)
• Weak keep as there is a short AllMusic bio here, and staff-written reviews here, here, and here. Haven't done a full search yet, Atlantic306 (talk) 00:37, 31 July 2026 (UTC)

First Bank of Greenwich

First Bank of Greenwich (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I do not see a clear WP:NCORP/WP:GNG pass. The sources are mostly official, regulatory, directory, stock-profile, or routine local/community/product coverage, with little significant independent coverage of the bank itself. The article is essentially a directory-like company stub rather than an independently notable article. Jonatan Svensson Glad (talk) 05:31, 20 July 2026 (UTC)

• Note: this discussion has been included in the AfD sorting lists for the following topics: Finance, Companies, United States of America, and Connecticut. Jonatan Svensson Glad (talk) 05:31, 20 July 2026 (UTC)

Howard Avenue Grounds

Howard Avenue Grounds (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article doesn't appear to be notable, as I can't seem to find any news stories about it. GrinningIodize (articles without a Wikidata item) (talk) 15:55, 16 July 2026 (UTC)

• Note: this discussion has been included in the AfD sorting lists for the following topics: Baseball and Connecticut. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 17:05, 16 July 2026 (UTC)

Keep - There are various references. You just haven't looked very far. And the previous redirect to Hamilton Park was an error, as these were two different venues. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 20:13, 16 July 2026 (UTC)

KEEP  /s/ boothy443 00:12, 17 July 2026 (UTC)

Why? GrinningIodize (articles without a Wikidata item) (talk) 14:46, 17 July 2026 (UTC)

BasebalBugs has basically spelled it out, and your reason of "I can't seem to find any news stories about it " is a pretty sorry/lame reason to request a deletion. Which makes me think you didn't do much leg work before you decided to do a busybody action. In a simple google search, on the first page, I came across three non wikipedia mentions including one newspaper article (which happens to have a map).

• https://www.seamheads.com/ballparks/ballpark.php?parkID=NEW01
• https://www.retroseasons.com/stadiums/hamilton-park/
• https://www.nhregister.com/news/article/NEW-HAVEN-200-City-s-one-season-with-a-major-11528136.php

Your personal ignorance on a subject and the lack of research on said subjec, in general or on this place, is a failure of a reason to remove something.  /s/ boothy443 00:59, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

And just for shits and giggles, here are some more, including a mention in the 3 April 1891 edition of the Yale Daily News:

• Comment I can see sources such as this in a search, though I'm not sure if that's enough to sustain an article. As mentioned earlier, it would be helpful if Baseball Bugs could list some additional sources by name. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 13:29, 31 July 2026 (UTC)
  • It's included in Retrosheet's list of major league ballparks; it's referred to numerous times over the years in local and area newspapers; it's covered in that external link to a ballpark research site; and it's on that old bird's-eye view map. I don't understand what you're looking for otherwise. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 14:36, 31 July 2026 (UTC)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Please provide links to any online sources as well as a source analysis. Argumentative assertions are borderline disruptive and unlikely to sway the consensus.
