Tilcayo Cats:Articles for deletion/Adeoye Aribasoye
This article fails to meet Wikipedia’s notability guidelines for biographies of living persons (WP:BIO) and politicians (WP:POLITICIAN). While Adeoye Aribasoye holds the position of Speaker of the Ekiti State House of Assembly, this is a state-level position, and WP:POLITICIAN only confers automatic notability for those who have held significant national office (e.g., members of the National Assembly of Nigeria).
The article also fails WP:GNG (General Notability Guideline) because the subject lacks multiple, independent, reliable sources that provide in-depth coverage of his career. The majority of sources available are either routine political coverage (e.g., reports on his election or legislative activities) or non-independent sources. Below is an evaluation of the sources currently cited in the article.
| Source | Type | Independent? | Reliable? | Depth of Coverage | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| https://leadership.ng/aribasoye-emerges-speaker-of-ekiti-assembly/ | Nigerian political news site | No | Mixed | Routine | Covers his election as Speaker but provides no analysis or detailed biography. |
| https://leadership.ng/aribasoye-late-egbeyemis-daughter-emerge-7th-ekiti-assembly-speaker-deputy/ | Nigerian political news site | No | No | Promotional | Routine press announcement that offers little to no significant depth of biographical coverage. |
| https://dailypost.ng/2023/09/16/nigerian-conference-of-speakers-elects-leaders-aribasoye-emerges-vice-chairman/ | Daily Post (Nigeria) | No | No | Routine | Mentions legislative activities but does not offer significant biographical coverage. |
| https://punchng.com/ex-ekiti-assembly-chief-whip-aribasoye-emerges-speaker/ | National Nigerian news site | Yes | Yes | Minimal | Briefly references him in passing, but not the subject of substantial coverage. This is a routine news article from the time of an event and not a secondary source |
| https://www.vanguardngr.com/2023/06/aribasoye-emerges-new-ekiti-assembly-speaker/ | National Nigerian news site | Yes | Yes | Routine | Only covers legislative meetings or political statements. |
The sources in the article are either not independent, do not provide in-depth coverage, or focus on routine political reporting. None of them demonstrate sustained, significant national or international coverage, meaning the article does not satisfy WP:GNG.𝔓420°𝔓Holla 18:17, 21 February 2025 (UTC)
