This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Sweden. 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:
- 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|Sweden|~~~~}} 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.
- Note that 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 Sweden. 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 Europe.

Nothing of notability in the bands history, additionally many of the references are primary Facebook posts about their band members history etc and I'm unable to find any significant coverage of the band online, outside of some album reviews from smaller blogs. InDimensional (talk) 23:42, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bands and musicians, Music, and Sweden. InDimensional (talk) 23:42, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, meets GNG, I found three sources with significant coverage of the band in Swedish media with a quick web search. [1] [2] [3] AlexandraAVX (talk) 08:33, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- I've added these and other sources into the article now. AlexandraAVX (talk) 11:21, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Not seeing anything that really satisfies WP:BIO. She lived, died, and left a lot of money to charity. Only one source, presumably in Swedish. Clarityfiend (talk) 09:56, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - she was a big donor to the construction of the iconic Stockholm Concert Hall. Added additional sources. That sources are in Swedish are not relevant to notability. Passes WP:GNG.BabbaQ (talk) 10:04, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: There probably are sources in books in Sweden, but I can't find any. She's listed in the Norsk FamilyBook from the 1920s to the 1940s (linked from Project Runeberg below), but I can't find anything more than the snippet given here. She's associated with the Jewish history of Stockholm and her husband Ernest comes up all the time. Likely not enough to build a biography here. Oaktree b (talk) 11:37, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Women and Sweden. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 16:19, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. Rosa Nachmanson has entries in at least a couple of encyclopedias, just looking at material which has been digitized. There's the entry in Nordisk Familjebok, which is used as a source in the article already, but also in Svenska män och kvinnor : Biografisk uppslagsbok, which I think is enough to build a biography on. Additionally, there's some biographical detail in articles written about her death, for example in Svenska Dagbladet or Hvar 8 dag. /Julle (talk) 16:33, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Comment. Riksarkivet entry for the family contains the following in the section 'Sources and literature':
Emanuel o Rosa N: TU 7:81, KB; Bouppt 1897-691noo 1917-70-rII,SSA; Mosaiska förs:s i Sthlm donationsfonder ... (1924); J Sachs, Mitt livs sal-do, 1 (1949),s92o217;SMoK; Sthlms konserthus, Minnesskr vid invign den 7 april (1926), s 23; H Valentin, aa 1919, s 89.
Now, I can't decode this, but presumably it refers to some sources that could be used. Jähmefyysikko (talk) 12:32, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

He was no doubt a metallurgist, and I see that he wrote about metallurgy, but I do not see a lot of reliable secondary sources that would constitute significant coverage. Fred Zepelin (talk) 16:46, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Science-related deletion discussions. Fred Zepelin (talk) 16:46, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academics and educators and Sweden. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 17:46, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep the subject was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences in 1930 and of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1945 so passes criterion 3 of WP:NPROF. Mccapra (talk) 18:21, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. In addition to the four pages in w:sv:Jernkontorets Annaler referenced in the English article, Swedish Wikipedia references an entry in Vem är vem inom handel och industri?: 1944–1945, so that would be a couple of different sources having significant coverage. /Julle (talk) 20:53, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. As a third source for WP:GNG we have this clipping from a Swedish mining guild, Sancte Örjens gille . And the two academy memberships give a double pass to WP:PROF#C3. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:27, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep - Third party sources. WP:GN applies as well.BabbaQ (talk) 23:33, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per Mccapra AlexandraAVX (talk) 09:10, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: I agree there were no source but since the article define itself, the nominator may have bypassed WP:BEFORE. An elected member of a notable society meets WP:ANYBIO and as such, there is possibility of meeting WP:GNG and sources. Clean up is the best way of cleaning such articles. Safari ScribeEdits!

Non-notable figure skater who fails WP:NSKATE; medal placement at the junior level does not meet the standards of WP:NSKATE. Google search turns up nothing outside of wikis and scoring databases. PROD removed without explanation. Bgsu98 (Talk) 23:04, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

- Keep: Both subjects seem to meet the GNG with the Skate Today article already in the article, which provides WP:SIGCOV, along with native language sources such as [[4]]. Let'srun (talk) 14:04, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep. In addition to what Let'srun has pointed out above, I've expanded the article a little bit, building on Swedish news sources. /Julle (talk) 19:30, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per Julles additions AlexandraAVX (talk) 05:48, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Nominated by an IP user: Non-notable group, going by available sources. Both with its current ("Supersci") and its former ("Superscientifiku") name, the group is mentioned on some Swedish websites, but with very few exceptions (e.g. Sundsvalls Tidning) either these sources are non-reliable, or the subject is mentioned only in passing.

- Comment In 2007, their "Pinetrees On The Pavement" (the song or the album?) was nominated (did not win) at sv:Manifestgalan (cannot link or the link disappears, for some reason). Source at Göteborgs-Posten here, and at Manifestgalan here. I doubt it's enough for actual notability, but it's something. --62.166.252.25 (talk) 20:04, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- In 2011, their "Timelines" was nominated (again, did not win) at the sv:P3 Guld. Example sources, at Sveriges Television here, and at Sveriges Radio P3 here. --62.166.252.25 (talk) 05:15, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- Keep, I've added three different sources that provide significant coverage. The article meets WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC. AlexandraAVX (talk) 16:04, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- Can’t check offline sources, but linked sources are not WP:SIGCOV.
- 1st source: Are only sayings of connected ones of the subject, no in-depth coverage of the subject.
- 4rth source: Nomination list of the award P3, I don’t know how much this award is notable. GrabUp - Talk 04:30, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
- 1st source: I see what you mean, though the offline sources are more independent of the subject.
4th source: The nomination doesn't confer notability, but I thought it was worth mentioning since it was brought up in the AfD. AlexandraAVX (talk) 08:30, 30 May 2024 (UTC) - I found the third source (or at least an article about the same thing by the same author) online, so added it to the article if you want to take a look.
