Non-notable hypothesis, seems far off from mainstream biology. There are no sources other than those written by Christopher James Davia. Narayanese (talk) 19:41, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Do not delete. This original and relatively unknown theory has been presented by other respected scholars, which is how I heard of it. Since then, I have cited it prominently in several publications. What is perhaps most telling about its originality can be seen in a contrast with conventional thinking. For instance, functional brain imaging relies on a metabolic signal, the BOLD signal, but does not propose a metabolic basis of perception or action in neurophysiology. The connection is indirect: brain works, needs fuel, gets fuel concomitant with the BOLD signal. By contrast, Davia sees a nervous system with a primary metabolic function that nonetheless integrates perception and action in autocatalytic processes working on multiple scales. Scaling phenomena of brain and body are consistent with this story, as are observable traveling waves in the neuropil. I hope these ideas keep their home on Wikipedia and inspire work to further test the validity of the basic premise. 3 March 2009 Gvanorde (talk) 19:37, 3 March 2009 (UTC)— Gvanorde (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Do not delete. I've collected together the references necessary to try and refute the criticism of "non-notable" and "too far off from mainstream biology" and in order to do so I have quoted in full (so sorry if it's a bit long in places):

The following has been published about the model:

The following people cite or support the model:
Patricia Carpenter (Lee and Marge Gregg Professor of Psychology at Carnegie Mellon University) cites the model as the basis for her research into embodied cognition (see her own wikipedia entry) and has talked on it at CogSci 2006 (see above) under the title ‘A Catalytic Theory of Embodied Mind’ - which has been reviewed as “building on the proposals of (a) Gibson and ecological psychologists concerning the role of invariance and (b) Shepard, Gestaltists and neuroscientists …”.
Professor Jack Tuszynski (current holder of the Allard Chair in Oncology at the Cross Cancer Institute in Edmonton, Canada having previously spent 17 years as Professor of Physics at the University of Alberta and on the editorial board of the Journal of Biological Physics) gave the fractal catalytic model a chapter in his book entitled Life, catalysis and excitable media: A dynamic systems approach to metabolism and cognition, pp-255-289, The emerging physics of consciousness, Tuzsynski, J.A. (Ed.), Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
In the introduction, Prof Tuszynski comments: “Christopher Davia in his chapter entitled: “Life, Catalysis and Excitable Media: A Dynamic Systems Approach to Metabolism and Cognition” examines how life maintains its organization and describes an entirely novel principle that unites all living processes, from protein folding to macroprocesses. Davia’s hypothesis is that the same excitable media principle applies at every scale: living processes involve catalysis, biological processes mediate transitions in their environments, and enzymatic reactions act accordingly. By pinpointing enzyme catalysis as a prototypical process, Davia identifies energy dissipation as playing a major role in biology. Possible mechanisms contributing to excitable media are identified, including solitons and travelling waves, nondissipative and robust waves, all of which maintain their energy and structure in their biologically relevant environments. Particular emphasis is placed upon the relationship between microscopic instances of catalysis and travelling waves in excitable media. Pertinently to the topic of this volume, it is suggested that the brain is an excitable medium, and that cognition and possibly consciousness correlate with the spatiotemporal pattern of travelling waves in the brain. Davia offers this theory as an alternative to the functionalist perspective that underlies much of current theoretical biology. A key strength of his theory is that the same principle applies at multiple scales, potentially explaining how many biological processes that comprise an organism work and cooperate.”
It is referenced in other papers such as:
Origins of Order in Cognitive Activity – Geoff Hollis, Heidi Kloos and Guy C.Van Orden, University of Cincinnati:
“In effect, metabolism is the primary form of self perpetuation of the brain and body. Therefore, an elegant theory would be one in which cognitive activity emerges out of metabolism and self perpetuation. Such a theory would begin to bridge the chasm between laws of physical processes and cognition. Davia (2005) outlines such a theory based on autocatalytic reactions, which are fundamental metabolic processes … Davia (2005) equates enzymes with self-perpetuating structures called travelling waves … (and) argues that the nervous system functions as an excitable medium.”

“Importantly Christopher Davia’s brain model (Davia, 2006) also concludes that spatio-temporal pattern of the travelling waves inside our brain is responsible for computation. Solitons, travelling waves and non-dissipative robust waves maintain structure and energy during computation of our brain. However, according to him this condition is valid till they are propagating in the relevant environment. This particular condition enables the system to generate versatile decision-making and global co-operation in biological computation. The CCU potential profile mimics modulation of polaron/soliton length, which is equivalent to Davia’s constraint condition.”

In summary then: As it’s described as an example of an “elegant theory … in which cognitive activity emerges out of metabolism“ and that it “build(s)... on the proposals of (a) Gibson and ecological psychologists concerning the role of invariance and (b) Shepard, Gestaltists and neuroscientists …” it could probably be argued that it’s at least ‘continuous’ with “mainstream biology”.

(Posted by unknown) Well, I wasn't able to comment on this... I decided to edit the page, and all this about not being a notable club or something is rediculous as this club is in the Victorian Premier League and has made plenty of appearences in finals. So whoever has written this obviously hasn't done his/her homework. I advise the editors of wikipedia to search the club on the internet or the league VPL (Victorian Premier League) and check if the team exists. I would also like to note on the fact that an editor has doubted this player of his age which isn't a very effective factor of judging proffessional athletes as there has been football(soccer) players that have signed contracts with clubs in the most succesful football leagues from 15 years of age. So why should this player be doubted for playing with a 'club within Victoria.'

Article makes several claims to notability, but none of them seem anywhere close to fulfilling the criteria at WP:BIO. It claims his songs have been heard "in Scandinavia, across North America, and in the Caribbean during the St. Lucia Country Music Festival." Only the last item is a real claim, and I can find nothing about this festival except in connection with him. His one book was published by vanity press iUniverse. He hosts a syndicated radio show which is "on hiatus." His "political career" consisted of announcing a run for city council then changing his mind. He apparently has done some environmental work that was "accessed thousands of times from inside Ottawa City Hall," but it's all worded very vaguely and doesn't seem notable at all. Lastly, he also coined a word on the Internet. Even taken as a whole, these achievements don't seem anywhere near our notability criteria. This article reads like a resume more than anything else, especially as it includes information on things like which colleges he got into. -Elmer Clark (talk) 04:53, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

@FREERANGEFROG:
What is your issue ? First, one user who was involved in stopping you from improperly getting another article deleted edited their opinion here from neutral to 'keep'. You then immediately undid their edit so it appeared they were still neutral.
Now, I have made a very detailed reply to Dori, including listing specific web reference examples, and very specific wikipedia policy quotes, and then you tried to do the same trick. Dude or dudette, you have some issues. Please do not delete my comments. If you have something to say, please do, but please do not vandalize what others have written. I am now the second person you've done this to. YSWT (talk) 04:30, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In what way is the article "basically an advertisement" 'as compared to similar articles about similar software. Microsoft Word Viewer is an analagous product, essentially a viewer for particular data formats. How -- if at all-- does this article differ from the Microsoft Word Viewer article such that this article is "basically an advertisement" ?
Moreover, what, *if any* are the objective criteria you applied to label the article "basically an advertisement" ? YSWT (talk) 05:25, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Deletion Criteria are listed in 'Overview of the AFD deletion process' as "three cardinal content policies (Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, Wikipedia:Verifiability, and Wikipedia:No original research) and the copyright policy (Wikipedia:Copyrights). Together, these policies govern the admissibility of text in the main body of the encyclopedia, and only text conforming to all four policies is allowed in the main namespace.
If the article were written as an 'advertisement' to sell something, Neutral point of view would be issue. Since the article was taken both in form and content and WORDING directly from another neutral article along similar subject, NOTHING in the article is not neutral. everything is fact based, and the facts selected were the facts another author selected for a different software. (just correct facts inserted, eg., which data formats can be viewed).
The article just cites to listed references and explains WHAT the software is.
Original research is not an issue, nor is copyright violation.
Article was carefully supported by references for full verifiability of the content, and to allow further research by those interested/researching the subject. YSWT (talk) 05:36, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
1. Drmies, what in the world is an 'independent reference' to your view ? Why do you wholly ignore the fact that for many/most software articles the references are to the software's (or hardware's) offical spec/information sheets and faqs.
If you would have looked OBJECTIVELY you would have seen that the MS Viewer article (which was the template for this one) has multiple references to MicroSoft's own website, and only a single external.
EDIT: now understand that Drmies isn't talking about references for the information provided by the article, but references tho establish internet buzz about the topic. deleted prior response and point to discussion below. YSWT (talk) 04:12, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
as for "WP:GNG always applies. " you might go and look at that closely. "Notability" in that context does *not* relate to content. It relates to whether an article should stand on its own as a separate article in wikipedia. Specifically from your reference "The notability guidelines determine whether a topic is notable enough to be a separate article in Wikipedia. They do not regulate the content of articles, except for lists of people[10]. Instead, various content policies govern article content."
Articles discussing specific software specifications are by and large in wikipedia each treated in a separate article. Probably this is best to *avoid* advertisements. For example, if you're point is the software article isn't "Notable" and thus should be included in another article on a broader topic, (again 'Notability' is NOT to censor content, but to determine what should be in discreet articles) then my own view is that turns software articles into adverts. When you place a particular program's specs and info INSIDE ANOTHER TOPIC that seems to me, personally, to be intrusive.
Seems best-- and farthest as possible from advertising, to keep software in its own article, where only someone looking to find info on that specific software will read.
For advertising purposes seems MUCH better to stick software info in some other highly read topic, hoping to introduce the software to new users. Since that is *not* the purpose here, does not seem helpful or appropriate.
By keeping the software as its own wikipedia entry, the info/specs/reference material is accessible TO THOSE LOOKING FOR IT, but is not 'thrust' upon those interested in other topics, etc. Ie. keeping the software to its own article keeps it a reference item.
Again, if this was not clear-- 'Notability' is NOT a criteria to censor content (at least about places, software, wildlife, etc) from wikipedia. It is a criteria for deciding if info should be in its own article. Anyhow. YSWT (talk) 06:52, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The topic has not received huge coverage outside of narrow, specialized technical forums. Therefore there is no PRESUMPTION of notability. All of the nay-sayers have to this point missed the point. For their analysis, No significant coverage in reliable sources = not notable = delete. That analysis is not healthy for wiki, and is contrary to the express wiki guidelines.
Maybe it is easier doing a google and finding X # of results and declaring 'not notable'. But this is very bad for wikipedia. What is called for is "the contents and subject of the article should frame the debate, and arguments should be put forward relating specifically to that content and subject".
(notice how you frame the issue "Eccomagic is notable?" based on 'external' web references. but that is NOT the test. "Eccomagic is PRESUMED notable?" *should* have been what you wrote (since you were talking about external web sites discussing the same topic). Seems you've confused the PRESUMPTION of notable based on internet buzz with the actual question of being notable. (and seems its not just you.). Again, internet buzz does not establish notability. It can establish a *presumption* of notability to avoid having to deal with the actual content. In your view, if the presumption of notability can't be established, you don't want to deal with the content. For you, the presumption of notability has replaced actual notability. The 'shortcut' to testing the actual content has replaced actual testing of the content. Discussion about looking for 'external' buzz has replaced discussion about the article's actual content. Actually, that's pretty interesting.YSWT (talk) 04:38, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Although articles should demonstrate the notability of their topics, and articles on topics that do not meet this criterion are generally deleted, it is important to not just consider whether notability is established by the article, but whether it readily could be. Remember that all Wikipedia articles are not a final draft, and an article can be notable if such sources exist even if they have not been added at present. Merely asserting that such sources exist is seldom persuasive, especially as time passes and actual proof does not surface. If it is likely that significant coverage in independent sources can be found for a topic, deletion due to lack of notability is inappropriate unless active effort has been made to find these sources. For articles of unclear notability, deletion should be a last resort.
If an article fails to cite sufficient sources to demonstrate the notability of its subject, look for sources yourself, or:
If appropriate sources cannot be found after a good-faith search for them, consider merging the article's content into a broader article providing context.[2] Otherwise, if deleting:[3]
This article was TWO HOURS into the process of being written when marked for deletion.
The cardinal rule of wikipedia Wikipedia:Assume_good_faith has been sorely lacking.
Gross violations of wikipedia rules and policy have occurred, with the silent support of the 'community' involved in supporting the article's deletion. The editor who posted the article for deletion going so far as to revert a 'Keep' position to a 'comment', and to remove external references offered in support asserting in his revision edit to be removing vandalism.
When others tried to comment in support of keeping the article it was made immediately clear that such comments were not invited and an atmosphere of hostility created. Notably, in looking at other deletion pages for guidance I found this practice common, one editor who had made a variety of edits on subjects spanning years was literally labeled as being a 'meatpuppet'.
I was personally threatened, if I 'obstructed the process of deletion' I might be banned from wikipedia, and that my other contributions would now be closely scrutinized, etc.
None of the 'deletion' community is an expert in the subject, have no idea what papers have been presented or what articles exist outside of google searches.
Encouragement of others to contribute to the article, time for that process to occur, etc., were all suppressed.
The article is not porn, it is factually accurate and properly referenced. If there are issues about the content, certainly helpful to improve them, etc., as with any article.
Instead, removing the 3 hour old article from the wiki has become to those involved an important cause. One editor, explaining in no uncertain terms that this article "will be deleted", and another, with support from others, going so far as to declare "someone want to do the honours and shut this sucka down?"
All in all, not what had expected from the wikipedia community. YSWT (talk) 21:07, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article provides no references at all apart from several obscure self published books.Policy is clear on this "If no reliable, third-party sources can be found featuring significant coverage of a topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it". WP:BURDEN Deconstructhis (talk) 06:50, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
One of the reasons given for the necessity of including this material in its own 'freestanding' article in the encyclopedia, is that the original Nuwaubianism article was already too large and that more room was required. I've taken note that three out of the four new independently referenced claims that have been dropped into this article over the past several hours, already appear in the original Nuwaubianism article, but are currently unreferenced in that context (see first and second paragraphs of the section titled "Cosmology: Illyuwn and Rizq"). The fourth claim and reference posted tonight in this article, stating that Rizq is the originating home planet of the Anunnaki, from whence they came in order to help create humans here on earth, does not appear to me to be included in the original Nuwaubianism 'mother' article, but both the claim and its accompanying supporting reference could be easily accommodated in the section titled "The races and their origins". In my personal opinion, improving the original article by adding the new references to the already existing material (and inserting your new claim with its appropriate reference) is a greater improvement to the encyclopedia than attempting to prop up a copiously detailed spin off article, which consists almost in its entirety of primary source material. One other thing that I find somewhat concerning about this situation, is that because we are relying almost exclusively on primary source material alone in this context, the relevant editors themselves are the ones that are determining what particular aspects of the available material concerning this belief system warrants both inclusion in, or exclusion from the article. Under normal circumstances (and according to policy), we as editors are instructed to rely on existing reliable secondary and tertiary sources to guide us in those interpretive calls, our own personal take on a subject is ideally irrelevant. How else can "neutrality" even be monitored, especially when we're dealing with source material as difficult to acquire as this is. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 06:56, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, I'll certainly give it a shot. In my opinion it is not desirable, nor do I think policy permits Wikipedia to provide every minute detail pertaining to a given belief system in an article, especially when those details are obtained only from a primary source and in particular, when a sufficient degree of detail is provided in an article that already exists. When such an article already exists, it is more appropriate to simply add reliable references to that one, rather than overwhelming the general reader with obscure details. Wikipedia editors are not permitted to decide on their own what constitutes the essential elements of a belief system, those guidelines are dictated by reliable secondary (and other) sources that the editor is supposed to be using to put the article together in the first place, otherwise, it likely constitutes "original research" WP:OR and almost certainly leads to a violation of the policies relating to WP:NPOV "non-neutrality".WP:CFORK and WP:PSTS contain some valuable information that is relevant here as well. There....that ought to do it. Aren't you glad you asked? :) cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 08:50, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While it's not difficult to find works with Munro's byline, it is difficult to find works about Munro—which is what matters for WP:CREATIVE. I haven't been able to find sufficient sources to show that he meets the standard. Dori (Talk • Contribs) 06:37, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
From Neil Munro; OK, Wikipedia must have criteria for exclusion & inclusion, but I do think I meet this test; "A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." Here is the borderline example, which I must and do beat; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Ed_Lowe_(journalist) My articles have spawned discussion at the left-of-center blogs, such as the Deltoid blog (those peope don't like my stories about the lousy Lancet studies on Iraq war-deaths. FWIW, my sidebar story on the Lancet=study ethics problems got the main author sanctioned by Johns Hopkins U.), as well as on the right-of-center Powerline, Weekly Standard and National Review blogs. I was the repotter who jump-started the articles about Obamas's unverified crdit-card donations, and the Pentagon's growing interest in cyber-war [back in 98, ii think, and those cyber-war articles prompted a 'Dear Colleague Letter' in the Senate). I've also been widely cited in D.C. debates on stem-cells. You can also find online discussions about my fake-photo articles, and my immigration articles. My work for NJ is mostly behind the subscription wall, but it is widely read in DC, many of whose political adovcates broadcast it via their e-mail lists. If nothing else, you can check me out on Google, and I rank above the Socttish novelist of the same name. That alone shows that I've met the "received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject" test. For "neil munro" and "national journal," I've got 17,600 mentions on Yahoo, 3,580 on google and 1,590 on MSN. I meet the 'creative' criteria for being "widely cited by their peers." I can also claim to meet "played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, which has been the subject ....of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." That's especially true of the Obama, cyber-war, fake-photo and stem-cell stories. The POV argument is reasonable charge. I suppose I should write the description it in a flatter style. I should also include that fact that I authored a poorly written, low-selling but useful book, titled "Electronic Combat." St. Martins published it, and kept about 90 percent of the revenue. I meet your reasonable & needed tests for notability. I hope you also meet your tests for fairness. I hope my next text meets your requirement for POV.

The term is a pure neologism which is currently only used for one device for cervical examination. True, there is no overt advertising in the article but "Ward Allen is a Forensic Imaging Consultant for SDFI-TeleMedicine". — RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 11:35, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
In most cases, medical/legal digital images are held in protected and encrypted environments (Due to various federal laws). With the advent of high speed internet connections, the encrypted forensic evidence is not being printed or burned to a CD as it is more effective and secure to transmit the files through secure digital “TeleMedicine” or “TeleHealth” conduits.
Secure digital forensic imaging simply describes a process that is becoming more and more popular as health systems convert from traditional documentation to paperless methods. If you take a digital picture and it is used for evidence it is deemed "forensic" and all forensic evidence must have limited access (be "secure") to adhere to federal law. The use of digital cameras in forensics is emerging but the concept, process and laws are well established.
I make no attempt to hide the fact that I work in the industry however this is a process greater than anything I am involved in. A wiki simply provides an educational resource for those who are not familiar with it and summarizes it for those who are.
NOTES:
This is one of the pre-existing external documents named. It was released by the U.S. Department of Justice in 2004. If is useful in its entirety but pages 11 and 15 should paint the picture.
U.S. Department of Justice - Forensic Examination of Digital Evidence: A guide for Law Enforcement
This is also a pre-existing external document from the FBI (Working with SWGDE) describing the usage of digital evidence. Again, it contributes in entirety but the IOCE International Principles at the end might be most helpful.
FBI - Digital Evidence: Standards and Principles
This is a new link, somewhat general but also describing the emerging usage of digital data. I would be happy to link it if you believe it would help.
Digital Imaging
The various internal links define the standard parts of the process (Including further requirements leading to the process with SWGIT and SWGDE). The external links tie them together from a legal standpoint. Please understand that this is my first wiki and I would appreciate any advice as to the type of references that could be provided to make this acceptable.
I am doing my best to meet your neologism requirements (To support the use of (or an article about) a particular term we must cite reliable secondary sources such as books and papers about the term—not books and papers that use the term.) however if there is an identifiable gap please let me know. As for the orphaning, am I correct in thinking you want me to go edit appropriate articles with a link to this one (as a way of encouraging cross development?)? I have added the category marker using an existing category at least for now...that is something I simply missed before.
Thank you. (P.S. I put this explanation in a couple of places as I am not 100% clear where it will be seen, I apologize for redundancy)

This is a term that deserves a presence as it is what most medical professionals using digital photography HAVE to do no matter what products they are using. The method of photography, security and tele-medicine can vary greatly (using different products/equipment etc) while the process remains the same (as per requirements defined on a federal level). The name itself pre-dates any company links given it is a self explanitory term (it is forensic imaging, done digitally and securely). The "telemedicine" portion is inclusive of the process (but not in the title of the wiki process because that WOULD be a conflict with a specific company name) because, of course, digital forensic evidence must be moved around amongst legal and medical professionals while adhering to federal law. This process can be applied to various solutions. If you take your personal digital camera, take a picture of someone's wound, they go to court and use the picture as evidence and it is proven legally to have adhered to the appropriate federal laws then the process is intact......... although that simple of an example does not sufficiently describe the process as the specific legal requirements play a large role (and it doesn't account for the secure transfer of information [telemedicine]).
I of course am more than happy to explore the concept of making this a sub-issue of a larger concept however, this really is the general process (in my head anyway, I am open to any suggestions), if I were to make a proprietary sub-issue, it would look very different. One thought is, if I were to refer to the equipment as no more than a "digital imaging device" (instead of a digital camera) and remove references to the colposcope, that would make it supremely general.....then it could be referring to any digital equipment (like an X-Ray, Ultrasound or even a colposcope with a camera or video recorder attached). The only problem there is making things THAT general steals away from the definition because most digital imaging devices are not used for forensic exams and while a rare perceived exception is a colposcope, that is not really correct because it is looking though the archaic lens system referred to in the original article (it is not a pure digital device, it is a digital device dependant on a non-digital one).
Please let me know if I am on the right track or if anyone has further thoughts. Thank you.

Dictionary definition. Very few sources besides Allmusic recognize it as a true genre, and with no sources, this article has absolutely no chance of expansion besides delving into original research (yes, Dave Dudley and Red Sovine had big hits with truck songs, but does that actually make it a genre?).

Contested prod with addition of credits. However, none of the films listed as his credits have Wikipedia articles, and thus do not imply inherited notability of WP:NFF, and there are no secondary sources except IMDB establishing that the person and films actually do exist - however, IMDB is extremely unpicky and do not cause WP:BIO to be met.
