Requested by WP:BLPN. Lacking sources completely (Note Google Search is not a valid reference). BLP issues <redacted>. Seems marginally notable but needs either major expansion and properly writing, or deleting. I would have PRODDED it but I think the author would have removed the template and just ignored it.

Delete per nom. It falls under WP:BLPPROD. There no sources. He himself is not a notable person just because of his arrest. I would even recommend speedy deletion under A7, non-notable person. ~~JHUbal27 02:00, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't fall under BLPprod for two reasons, there was a very reliable source that has been removed as undue and another link that when you click on it does confirm information in the article. BLPprod is an awkward and unsatisfactory compromise, but if a facebook entry is sufficient to avert it then this link is much better. As for A7, A7 is not for non-notable people. The test for A7 is deliberately much lower, whether there is an assertion of importance or significance. Where notability is in doubt, then as in this case AFD is the correct venue.

Creating new terms for existing ideas Xkcdreader (talk) 13:54, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't realize how much I could put for reasons. So .. Seed AI seems to be a person describing Evolutionary_computation Evolutionary_algorithm Genetic_algorithm Reflection_(computer_science) Self-modifying_code and inventing their own name for the concept. The only source for calling this Seed AI over a genetic algorithm is the "inventors" own company. It appears the person who "invented" Seed AI is repackaging others ideas with new names and taking credit for the concept. It is not a notable idea outside of the authors own projects, and the other articles I provided offer a much more comprehensive examination of an algorithm that can modify itself.

In contrast, Evolutionary_computation and Evolutionary_algorithm describes software that evolves randomly based on selection pressure, usually using Genetic_algorithm. Reflection_(computer_science) is a technical term to be able to access programming meta data. Likewise Self-modifying_code is a low level technical term, not implying intelligence.
Rename to Recursive Self Improvement is actually my preferred choice, and there is a link from that term to Seed AI. Tuntable (talk) 00:58, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Key (film) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This film quite simply doesn't meet the notability requirements of WP:NFILM and WP:GNG. In particular, the film was never widely distributed and I can't find in-depth coverage by reliable third-party sources. Only three of the references provided can reasonably considered independent of the subject. The first is an anonymous review on www.videoviews.org which, as far as I know, is a pretty obscure website. The second is a list of nominees and prize winners at the World Music and Independent Film Festival. This is a very small festival and although Key won best horror film, it is worth pointing out that none of the films in that competition were ever distributed in theaters (and two of them were short films). The last is from a more credible website but it's a six sentence blurb and certainly doesn't qualify as "in-depth" coverage. I also don't see any signs that the director or other people involved (lead actor, co-scriptwriter/producer, cinematographer, music composer) are notable for other projects. Much of the content is unsourced but that is made possible by the fact that the film's director is also the author of the article. Pichpich (talk) 22:37, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me, but "in-depth" is not the same as "significant". Just so long as a source contains more-than-trivial information, it can be considered under WP:SIGCOV. We do need more to meet WP:NF though. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 20:22, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The film's cinematographer David Newbert recently shot Larry Clark's latest feature "Marfa Girl". Larry Clark is an A list independent filmmaker with titles such as 'Kids' and 'Bully'. The film won the Rome International Film Festival in November 2012. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rbhamiltoniv (talkcontribs) 18:30, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I stand corrected. I got confused by the expanding credit lists of IMDb. The cinematographer David Newbert has been the DP on two feature films: Key and Larry Clark's Marfa Girl. But my basic point stands: Newbert may very well become a notable cinematographer but he currently isn't and he's certainly not at the stage where he's famous enough that he generates coverage for all projects he takes part in.

  • The issue with the director potentially being notable is that notability is not inherited by the director being notable or by him having any association with notable persons or projects. Less than 1% of any person that ever lived is so notable that all of their works become notable by association, and that's in general rather than specifically film oriented. Having an association with a notable person merely makes it more likely that something would receive coverage, but it's never a guarantee. I was unable to tell if you meant that Key won at the Rome International Film Festival or if one of Clark's other works won there. I was unable to find Key at the official website, so I'm assuming it's a separate work that won. Even if it had been Key, we would need a little more than this to show notability for the film. As I said above, most aren't notable enough to keep on that basis alone. But as far as Clark being part of an award winning film and working on something else, that falls under "not inherited". Basically, Clark would have to be along the lines of Steven Spielberg or Andy Warhol to have that level of notoriety and I'm not even sure that they're at the level of notability where all of their works become notable by association. In a nutshell, what the "so historically significant that any of his or her works may be considered notable" bit means is that because the person is so notable, the likelihood of the entirety of their works not receiving any in-depth scrutiny is very, very slim. (IE, Shakespeare is one of the very few examples of this level of notoriety.) Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 04:13, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This so stupid.

You don't understand me. What's the notability in the article? Sign a contrcact with WWE and send to the farm territory. Per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andre Tyson and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rachelle Walker isn't notable because she hasn't do nothing yet. Who I am? An user with more of 5 years in Wikipedia. Davina Rose is training and appears in a show of a Indy promotion, nor even WWE because NXT it's a different promotion. If we stand Chris Hero, PAC, Brodie Lee or El generico in NXT it's because they are notbales (years in the business, a lot of matches, travel around the world) others like The Usos, Ted DiBiase or Brodus Clay are notbales because they spent years of his live in WWE main roster, no two moths in WWE farm territory.

WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a consideration here. Some embassies are notable some are not. LibStar (talk) 15:43, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It's a simple question. Is that one notable or not? Because if it is, we should totally bundle it to this deletion discussion. It's ridiculously biased for us to keep the American one and not the Canadian one when they have pretty much the same claim to notability. Feedback 18:35, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I would say that neither is notable. The US one (due only to the fact that it is in a building that has hosted several different embassies over the years) may have a slightly better chance at having sources existing, but a quick internet search and what is there doesn't convince me it is notable either. I don't think there is any bias on the nominator's part though, as s/he, based on their other nominations, simply went through embassies in Canada and nominated those that they beleived were not notable. I would completely support you if you were to nominate the US one for deletion. I would, however, caution against bundling embassies from the same country together as their individual situations, due to differing political relations, are often very different and should be examined independently. And as to bias, I think supporting deletion here, and not on the US in its present state, would be very difficult to do, as, as you rightly point out, both their claims is simply that they exist as an embassy. Ravendrop 18:06, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Fair argument. In that case, I say Delete, but I encourage people to also participate in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Embassy of Ecuador in Washington, D.C..

*Yes, redirect because it is a likely search term and there is hardly anything to merge (and what there is is wrong!). However, the East Coast Main Line article rather loses focus north of the border so Edinburgh to Aberdeen Line would be a better target. The latter does actually mention this historical railway company. References are available and there is no reason to delete.[2] Thincat (talk) 22:49, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

*Redirect to North British Railway with which it appears to have merged in 1880 according to this source. The historical company may have been notable, but I see no evidence of that on the internet and redirection would not prejudice recreation if somebody came up with the material. --AJHingston (talk) 23:25, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment (I !voted above) I agree the topic is notable but the article I saw would have been improved by making it a redirect. The North British Railway would be (would have been) a better target except it doesn't mention the company at all. Thincat (talk) 10:01, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • I would expect to see evidence that the sources mean it can be expanded beyond it's current stub state - if that is not the case I would recommend merging, possibly to a prose list of minor stations on the railway. BTW the 1965 date above is for full closure for goods trains, 1955 is given for closure to passengers. Stuart.Jamieson (talk) 10:55, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Jamieson's correct on the closure date. There's nothing wrong with a decently referenced stub. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 17:57, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Per WP:STUB it should not only be decently referenced but "Capable of Expansion". The limited sources in this case, and the little information prescribed within those sources suggest that while there is notability there is little prospect of expansion. It's why I suggest an upmerge to be a better option than keeping as a permastub or deletion. Stuart.Jamieson (talk) 19:07, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • The RCAHMS record is not a reliable source for anything other than the station's existence which is the same for many other non-notable historical items in their collection. The General notabilty guidelines requires a higher threshold which is that those sources discussing the subject present significant coverage. The RCAHMS collection only includes one photograph of the station and no prose written about it. Stuart.Jamieson (talk) 16:00, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It is way to premature to assume notability. The tag team has been around for very little time and as of now, their very little history is already in both Brodus Clay and Matt Bloom.

Per WP:HOAX. No evidence whatsoever of a separate organization called the Engineer Branch as opposed to the Army Corps of Engineers. Sources in article all refer solely to the Army Corps of Engineers. Hawkeye7 (talk) 19:51, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think it's a hoax. I think it's a badly named page; Engineer Branch (United States Army) would make more sense. The page about USACE is mostly about the civil engineering missions of the Corps. The guys who build Bailey bridges in the muck deserve some space.--Jim in Georgia Contribs Talk 21:08, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Notice that "A Corps of Engineers for the United States was authorized by the Congress on 11 Mar 1779." not for the United States Army. I believe the name of the branch is correct.
See also: Category:Branches of the United States Army for both current and historic branches.
SBaker43 (talk) 06:09, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose There is much information in this article that is not in United States Army Corps of Engineers. While both articles deal with the same entity, I believe the appropriate action is to merge rather than delete.

--Lineagegeek (talk) 22:34, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How can an organization be notable when it doesn't exist? A reader looking at an engineer unit now gets told that it is part of this non-existent branch. Which is "often confused" with the Corps of Engineers, which is a real, legally constituted body. Are the Afghanistan Districts part of it? Was the Manhattan District? How can anyone know when it doesn't exist? Was Douglas MacArthur part of this branch? Leslie Groves? Pee Wee Herman? How can we tell when it doesn't exist? Hawkeye7 (talk) 22:41, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - [16] explains the legal necessity dictated by the Goldwater–Nichols Act to differentiate the personnel who served the Army and those who served the USACE. This explains the common history, but current differing missions, functions, and organization. They came from the same place, but forked quite some time ago. The Fort Leonard Wood Chapter of the Society of American Military Engineers has a pdf:[17] that explains the definition of the Engineer Branch. EricSerge (talk) 18:30, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment: That's actually a very good link, but all it is talking about is the different staff and line responsibilities of the Chief of Engineers; it demolishes rather than bolsters your case. And we do have a naming standard: we use the official names of the arms and services. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:15, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't like the idea that it should be necessary to write a "well-explained, well referenced section" for inclusion in United States Army Corps of Engineers before we can can delete an article that consists of nothing but copy-paste content from two webpages, and I don't know what evidence will convince doubters that these entities are one and the same, but I'll try to present some evidence here. For starters, note that both Wikipedia articles indicate that the entity they describe was organized by the Continental Congress on 16 June 1775, directing that the army should have one chief engineer and two assistants. Now look at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Brief History and its 321-page history book. Observe that the specific events mentioned in the short webpage from which the "Engineering Branch" article's "History" section are all findable in these longer histories. For example, paragraph 1 of the page used in this article discusses the Corps' role in the Battle of Yorktown; that same event is described in much greater detail (using many of the same words) on page 4 of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers History book. The permanent establishment of the Corps in 1802 is described in paragraph 2 of the webpage that was copied to produce this article and in paragraph 2 of this page from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers "Brief History". Fast-forward to World War II, which is mentioned briefly in paragraph 9 of the page that was copied to create this article; you'll find a lot more information on the very same subject in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers history book sections entitled "Combat Engineers in World War II" (pages 130-145) and "The Manhattan Project" (pages 146-153 in the same PDF). These are one and the same organization, and its name is United States Army Corps of Engineers. --Orlady (talk) 14:29, 1 April 2013 (UTC) Also, see the "Heraldry" chapter of this Army Corps of Engineers Graphic Standards Manual for verification that the symbols displayed in the "Engineering Branch" article are in fact symbols of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. --Orlady (talk) 15:07, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. The issue is one of a loose use of the language. There is no difference between the various branches of the Army, whether they are referred to as "X Branch" or "X Corps." The Signal, and Adjutant General are two that are regularly referred to either way and refer to the same organization. Further confusing the issue with the Engineers, however, is the existence of a separate group, the United States Army Corps of Engineers. This refers to the federal agency that is charged with the management of all federal public engineering in the US and it while it shares personnel and connections with the Engineer branch of the Army (which is why they share heraldic symbols), the USACE is not associated directly with the operational engineers of the Army, its schools, or functions. Check the About pages of the USACE website and compare with the Engineer School information on the Ft. Leonard Wood site.RTO Trainer (talk) 21:06, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. In the Army Corps history book, I find that some functions that formerly belonged to the Corps of Engineers have been transferred to other Army branches at various times. Notably, in a major Defense Department reorganization that occurred in 1962 (discussed on pages 221-222 of that book), an engineer training function was transferred to the Army Combat Developments Command. This may be what is now done at the Engineer Training School at Fort Leonard Wood. See page 217 of the book for information about the Corps' earlier history in relation to the Army Engineering School, including training at Fort Leonard Wood. Some other functions were moved around in later reorganizations. Thus, there may be an Engineer Branch in the regular Army (although the sources cited in the article don't establish that to my satisfaction), but this "Engineer Branch" can't legitimately claim the entire history of the Army Corps of Engineers as its own history, which is what the current article does. --Orlady (talk) 22:10, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment No one has established to my satisfaction by providing reliable sources that (a) there is anything officially called the "Engineer Branch" or (b) that there are two organizations with the exact same name, history and insignia. These are one and the same organization, and its name is United States Army Corps of Engineers. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:08, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Then, would you consider a rename and rewrite of the Engineer Branch article to Combat Engineers (United States) to reflect the wholly different character and mission of the operational work of those in the 12 MOS series? RTO Trainer (talk) 23:47, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps the one article can be can be restructured with one major section about the military side of the Corps activity, and the other side about the civilian activities of the Corps.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 19:35, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The issues with this page can't be resolved by inventing new titles, nor by inventing an organization chart that says this is one side of the Army Corps. I've not yet seen sources that verify the existence of this supposed organization under any name. As it is now, the article starts off with an unsourced assertion about the existence of this organization, then proceeds to present information (copied verbatim from a couple of websites) that can be demonstrated to be about the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. --Orlady (talk) 19:45, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed that splitting the article is not the optimum direction. A full and complete account of the Corps can be housed at the Corps article, and should be. This particular attempt is not worth saving; we've spent more time analyzing it than it deserves. Binksternet (talk) 20:05, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That's what I am saying, there is a civilian activity of the Corps, and a military activity of the Corps. Both are one in the same, but their activities are substantially different. I am not saying that they are separate, I am saying that there should be sufficient reliable sources to document the combat activities of the Corps, and sufficient reliable sources to document the civilian activities of the Corps.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 20:56, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

UCD Fencing Club

Nomination As the creator of this page I sought to replace a previous page, of the same name, that had been deleted for lack of notability.

I had hoped that good, reputable and neutral sources could be obtained to substantiate the club. Unfortunately the only article of this nature that I could find is some fifteen years old. While the presence of an Olympic athlete would seem to solidify the notability of the organisation, it has come to my attention that the athlete in question officially competes under an altogether different organisation, the MPAI (which officially is concerned with the modern pentathlon rather than fencing specifically.)
Furthermore, I have also discovered that the club is not the largest club of its type in Ireland, but is in fact dwarfed in membership by a different university fencing club, the wikipedia page for which has been deleted due to lack of notability. Although the article states that the club has achieved the Intervarsity trophy twenty times in its history, which does seem to be the case (notwithstanding the lack of unbiased sources), the club has not won this particular competition for several years. All other sources pertaining to the club seem in some way created or influenced by the club or its members.
Finally, the rankings used as justification for the article are now out of date.
Postscript — The image used as the logo for the club is the generic official image representing the university. --AnAbsolutelyOriginalUsername42 (talk) 12:51, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This is a page of total bollocks and, as far as I can see, is irredeemable. The first sentence is wrong: "Transportation emissions are gases released into the air that come from fossil fuels." So, burning coal in the home is a transportation emission? And it goes on the same: "The gases emit CO2": no they don't, the gases don't emit anything. etc etc. The image used to illustrate has absolutely nothing to do with transportation! The article is written in a "you can do this" attitude - hardly encyclopaedic. It contains a very long list of See also links which seem to be largely random (Stench !). This seems, at best, a rough draft for a schoolkid's homework. I have frequently argued in AfD that a poorly written aricle is not grounds for deletion but a spur to improvement.

You can find something remarkable by searching the Chinese characters of Jip Deng (摺櫈). What's more, the cultural meanings of Jip Deng is actually in many Hong Kong people's mind and we are trying to record them on Wikipedia.Mary tmy (talk) 11:16, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

More informations can be found when you search Chinese characters '摺櫈' in Google. Jip Deng (摺櫈 or 摺凳) is of fundamental importance in Hong Kong from 1960s to 1990s. Till now, Hong Kong people still use Jip Deng (摺櫈) in many different aspects like local restaurants. Jip Deng (摺櫈) carries historical values and cultural meanings of Hong Kong. Further elaboration of this topic would be valuable as people worldwide will know more about Hong Kong cultures.Evelineleung (talk) 12:19, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Jip Deng is a phrase we speak in Cantonese like Dai Pai Dong. Jip Deng implicitly symbolizes low-income family in Hong Kong as it is one of the affordable furniture for them. Also, it was a common used prop in previous Hong Kong movies. Therefore, it represents Hong Kong's collective memories and cultures and it is extraordinary important to record it on Wikipedia.Siulingng6 (talk) 12:26, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

When we mention Jip Deng in Hong Kong, Hong Kong people immediately think of some releavant memories like the famous scenes of the movies about triad society, or the old Hong Kong style. Especially Jip Deng was common to be found in people's homes in the past or in the food stalls called Dai Pai Dong, it was because Jip Deng could save a lot spaces while the spaces were valuable in Hong Kong. Therefore Jip Deng contains the cultural memories of Hong Kong.Wwkwongvega (talk) 12:36, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Heavily edited by a user with an obvious conflict of interest (the developer). Having searched for sources, I couldn't find anything that would allow this product to be considered a notable one. Promo, notability and sourcing templates were all edit-warred out of the article. Stalwart111 04:55, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Accusations from blocked editor.
  • I chose that name only because I want to support the company work, as some other users of the products do from number of years. If you do not find anything in the product that makes it "notable", it is because you certainly did absolutely not test the demo ! I invite you to do so : [redacted] (Stalwart111 09:13, 30 March 2013 (UTC)) and to come back after, not to (pre)judge my work, but to help me to find how to write my article better in a more encyclopedical style. It is my first work. In the contributors rules, there are "don't byte newbies !" and that is exactly what you do (having yourself written an article for a company which looks very commercial too). Thank you to test the product and show in which way you are a music software specialist. If I do not quote a lot works written by university teachers, it is that the software is not supported by a lot of financial interests and I quote the only references I find. And actually the ones I found are published on .com websites but include technical analysis and present how to master the program, so these are not bad references. Finally as I arrive so I do not master the syntax. Do I have the time to learn and contribute freely ?Arpmuswikicontrib[reply]
Sorry, but WP:AFD is not the place to further spam editors here with links to your product. WP:BITE is an important guideline but it generally doesn't extend to promo-spammers trying to use Wikipedia as the Yellow Pages. To be considered notable, a subject must have received significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. Wikipedia is not a platform for promoting products. Your username is an obvious violation of policy and has been reported (not by me). Yes, I have contributed to dozens of articles about companies, company owners and other organisations (corporate and charitable). You are welcome to do so also, as long as the companies in question meet inclusion criteria. Oh, and how-to guides are generally not considered great sources. Stalwart111 09:13, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Also, you're not allowed to remove template AFD notifications from the top of articles, so please don't. Removing that template won't stop the article from being listed here for deletion anyway. Stalwart111 09:14, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It is evident that yourself you have personal interests for a company which develop music software. You do not talk as an objective editor : notability is a very subjective criteria and instead of helping me to contribute better, you induce my identity. You are not interested in contributing to develop the knowledge corpus, but only interfere with other's work. That attitude can only be motivated by personal financial interests. You are not decided to test the program demo, as I suggested, just because you do not have the skills and knowledge to do so. That is precisely why I do not accept that you insert notifications related to my work. As I said, I mention the sources I find, and maybe "how to" are not equivalent to post-doctoral sources, nevertheless they help a lot of internet users (and not especially software) to learn something (it is the goal, here, and not defend some "cast spirit" as you do). So, unless you can prove you have skills in music notation software field, do not interfere any more in my work. And by the way, let new editors contribute at their own level and also readers who have lesser knowledge and not a very high academic background to discover novelties. It is not everyone who can produce in just one day a perfect article. The one I try to make has nothing to do with "yellow pages" : I begin to talk about technical aspects, but that cannot be done in one hour.Arpmuswikicontrib
You don't WP:OWN the article - your willingness to "accept" criticism is irrelevant. The product does not meet inclusion guidelines and was tagged that way. Again, please don't remove AFD tags - deleting them won't stop the article from being deleted anyway. That will just get you blocked. Only the supply of reliable sources that give your product significant coverage will save it. Stalwart111 10:52, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Besides which, the only "source" (listed at the end) for that article is the company that created the software being reviewed. So did the company provide those how-to instructions for Salon to reprint? I'm actually inclined to think that the TopTenReviews one is better... but not sufficient on its own. That and TTR has courted controversy in the past for its commercial (click-through advertising) relationships with the producers of the products it reviews. It came up in a separate AFD I participated in, I think. Not a deal-killer but surely a concern if it's the only "independent" source being offered, and might not be independent. Stalwart111 22:00, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Okay, I get where you're coming from. Yeah, it's available free, but that's a trial/demo version designed to encourage you to buy the full product later. I don't think there's any doubt this is an entirely commercial product, even if they drum up business with free samples. In fact, the company's representative tried to give me a trial version (see the hatted section above) claiming it would somehow prove notability. Stalwart111 22:49, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • Thank you for your patience and time, I don't know how good or otherwise the various web sites that mention the product are as I do not have the wherewithal to do so. I remain neutral in this discussion, I won't vote "keep" is all I say. I leave it to the better informed to decide.Yogesh Khandke (talk) 23:19, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"I am certain that he will play an important role" means "He is not yet notable, but I think he will be". However, we do not keep articles because somebody guesses that their subjects will be notable some day: we need verifiable evidence that he is notable now. See WP:CRYSTAL. JamesBWatson (talk) 22:02, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
In a separate event in January 2013, Yap addressed an international audience at the "National Conference on the Role of Youth in Reconciliation" held in the Lashman Kadirgamar Institute for International Relations and Strategic Studies in Sri Lanka. He highlighted the rise of global instability and proceeded to expound on the key driving factors that has helped to trigger unprecedented events around the world (Eg. The Arab Spring, 9/11. etc). He then discussed the responses to such events and the importance of involving today's youths in the implemented of proposed frameworks and solutions (Kadirgamar Institute, 2013). [3]
In 2011, Yap spoke at TEDXKL, an independently organized TED event held in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia (TedxKL, 2011).[4]
In addition to that, In 2010, Yap trekked through the Taklamakan Desert in China in an event organized by Racing the Planet. His trek aimed to raise public awareness of the United Nations Association of Singapore (UNAS), of which he is the Secretary General. The 100km trek which was, according to Yap, "to further the cause of UNAS and play a part in the UN's millennium goals." (Brunei Times, 2010). [5].
Yap is also an Associate Fellow with the Singapore Institute of International Affairs, (SIIA), a local think tank. He has written papers which have been published with the Lee Kwan Yew School of Public Policy, the Rajaratnam School of international Studies, and the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) (MINDEF, 2009).[6]. In 2013, a commentary by Yap, titled "Does Sabah merit ASEAN's attention?", was published in the commentaries section of Singapore's local papers. In the paper, Yap evaluates the recent Sabah-Sulu conflict and ASEAN's role in resolution of it. (Today Online, 2013) [7]
As seen here, Yap Kwong Weng has contributed significantly to initiating societal changes both locally and internationally. He has published works and has been noted in local and international media. I therefore request that this article not be deleted.

Prod contested without comment. My prod rationale was "This appears to be original research: 'The Sikkaligar people that we did research on...', 'A 210-item wordlist was collected...' Wikipedia is not for publishing of original research." Some of the quoted verbage has since been removed, but not what was the apparent OR itself. I can find a few mentions of Sikkaligar in lists available in Google Books, but that is it, not enough information to write an article without OR. LadyofShalott 19:22, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. Concern was Article about a footballer who fails WP:GNG and who has not played in a fully pro league. PROD was contested on the grounds that he is signed to an MLS club that he has played pro matches. While true, none of the matches in which he has played were fully pro, and being signed to but not playing for a fully-pro club is explicitly excluded as a source of notability per WP:NSPORT.

This is a non-notable DNA project. FamilyTreeDNA currently has 7,347 such surname projects [20]. These projects are administrated by "unpaid volunteers who have an interest in the history and genealogy of a particular haplogroup, lineage, geographic region, or surname" [21]. Anyone can create a surname project [22]. The creator of the article is User:Nigelbrooks; the adminstrator of the surname project is "Nigel Brooks" [23]. The only published thing I could find about the project on Google and GoogleBooks was by a publisher (Ceed Publishing) pushing Wikipedia articles.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 11:15, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The Article has been written in an unbiased way and would welcome a 3rd party analysis added to it - you would have hoped people with the intellect of Brianann MacAmhlaidh and expertise on DNA would help with this rather than trying to get all FTDNA Surname Projects removed from Wikipedia - I question if Brianann MacAmhlaidh has a 3rd party reason for attacking such pages when they do not constitute their own personal views - I have read many Wiki articles where this user has attacked an article when they do not represent this users views. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nigelbrooks (talkcontribs) 12:41, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia articles are supposed to be based upon reliable third-part sources. If the subject of an article isn't given significant coverage by independent sources, it's not considered notable. A FamilyTreeDNA project isn't notable in itself; and it's project webpage, administrator, and affiliate webpages aren't independent sources. Wikipedia isn't the place to publicise or advertise a particular subject, but a place to display a summary of what reliable sources have to say about the subject.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 13:26, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
