An Unbreakable Bond is an article about a book. The original author of the article is clearly self-identified as the author of the book, so there is a big conflict of interests. The article does not address the notability of the book at all. It simply provides a plot synopsis. The referencing mainly covers for the factual events that the book is based on. It does seem to have a little local news coverage but this does not seem sufficient. Prod was removed by an user who I suspect to be an alternative account of the original author and who has also written an (auto)biography of him at Pat Farabaugh.

Pat Farabaugh is a biography of the author. I my took BLPPROD off that myself as references were added. However, even with the references, I don't see notability here and, unless I am mistaken, the same COI issues apply. DanielRigal (talk) 21:48, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This article was tagged by the author for speedy deletion, which I declined. The rationale given was "There is a request from the organisation to remove this from the Wiki", which is not a valid reason, and it is not eligible for G7 because the author is not the sole editor. But I have worked on the article for a while and I'm not sure what to make of it. If it is a diploma-granting institution it would be presumed notable per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. But if I am reading it correctly, they grant a certificate in Java technology rather than a diploma. If that is the case it needs to meet WP:GNG, which it clearly doesn't. I could find no outside references at all, just the institution's webpage. Unless someone can find more sources, or evidence that they qualify under SCHOOLOUTCOMES, I recommend deletion. If kept, the title should be moved to Java Institute for Advanced Technology. MelanieN (talk) 19:53, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

How does this article meet WP:GNG? The overwhelming number of references are to the article subject's own work. Getting a letter published in a journal isn't notable. Certainly getting published in a school paper isn't notable. There's nothing about him that differentiates him from hundreds of thousands of medical school students around the world.

I suggest deleting this article per WP:N and WP:INHERIT, since the notability of the tragedy does not automatically make the poem notable. The article is mostly retelling the content of the poem (in violation of WP:PLOT), and the second- and third-party coverage is marginal at best. It was already proposed for deletion for exactly the same reasons about a year ago (the result was "no consensus"), and nothing seems to have changed since then (there was no new media coverage).

This seems almost deletable as ((db-band)) per a lack of importance asserted, however given the amount of sources thought AfD was a better venue. Having said that, as all the sources are local to New England, this doesn't seem like enough to make the band meet the general notability guidelines, and it doesn't look like they meet WP:NMUSIC. kelapstick(bainuu) 15:43, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Chemistry and WikiProject Pharmacology require chemical compounds to meet the general notability guideline to be included in Wikipedia. This is not a notable chemical compound. Beyond the one reference in the article (which is a patent, not a peer reviewed publication, and therefore may contain unsupported claims), there are no reliable medical sources mentioning this chemical compound - nothing on PubMed, etc. Most of the article content is original research and pure speculation. The article should be deleted due to concerns about WP:N, WP:V, WP:RS, and WP:OR. ChemNerd (talk) 19:41, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No coverage in reliable, non-affiliated sources. All sources are affiliated except for the Zwoll, Karpf, Jones and Whiting refs. However, the Zwoll and Whiting refs are blogs (not an WP:RS), while the Karpf ref doesn't even mention the centre. This leaves the Jones ref, which is quite literally from a tabloid, and doesn't really establish notability due to not being an RS. Therefore, due to the lacking of notability establishing sources, we should delete this article. Grognard Chess (talk) Ping when replying 13:13, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@MaudeG3: Now what exactly are you implying? I don't see how that is relevant at all. Grognard Extraordinaire Chess (talk) Ping when replying 13:40, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
MaudeG3, I'd ask you to please remember to assume good faith whenever possible. It shouldn't be necessary to call Chess's background or character into question here. Let's focus on what we can do to improve or save the article, if possible. —Tim Pierce (talk) 16:26, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@MaudeG3:, something else to note: it's not necessary for the sources to be in mainstream media. Academic journals or newsletters are also fine sources. What's important is to find sources that are independent of the Centre or its members, are substantially about the Centre itself (rather than mentioning it in passing), and are reliable due to some level of editorial oversight -- i.e. blogs or personal web pages are not generally considered reliable, but newsletters and journals generally are. Are there any more reliable independent sources that discuss the Centre in any detail? That would be a huge help here. —Tim Pierce (talk) 16:46, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Tim Pierce: Can you find them? Look around, because you're trying to find the proverbial oasis in a desert. Grognard Extraordinaire Chess (talk) Ping when replying 16:53, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I have been looking. It certainly is difficult to find good sources. Maybe, as you say, there just aren't enough to sustain this article at this time. But I think that we can get there without escalating to emotional rhetoric like "oasis in a desert." —Tim Pierce (talk) 21:48, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly, there's been 15 days to improve this article, and the improvement has not been done. We've pretty much established that this subject fails WP:GNG, and the complete lack of sources to establish notability firmly convince me that this article should be deleted. Grognard Extraordinaire Chess (talk) Ping when replying 00:40, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
One important thing to understand is that Wikipedia's content and sourcing standards are a lot tougher now than they were five or ten years ago — an article being created today has to conform to a much stricter set of rules than an article that was created in 2004 did. So the fact that you can find a bad, poorly referenced article that's ten years old has no bearing on the standard that you have to meet to get a new article kept today. And I'd also encourage you to read WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS — especially the part about "Plenty of articles exist that probably should not. Therefore, just pointing out that an article on a similar subject exists does not prove that the article in question should also exist; it is quite possible that the other article should also be deleted but nobody has noticed it." Bearcat (talk) 15:00, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Niccoben: let's quote that you said, "I am not quite sure why Chess is so vehement at targeting this particular one". How is that in any way relevant to this discussion? Please explain how that influences this article's notability. Grognard Extraordinaire Chess (talk) Ping when replying 15:56, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've looked for more sources. They're not there. It's a fundamentally non notable subject. Userfying won't change that. Grognard Extraordinaire Chess (talk) Ping when replying 16:36, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Please note that the Huffington article is not about the subject, it's about Mister World, and the Rhône-Alpes one is about Mister National (many of these are kind of spammy and unclear as to who organizes them). And even if they were, they could hardly be considered coverage of the pageant itself. Most of the individual pageants that feed Mister World do not have a standalone article, nor should they. There is zero to none coverage of this pageant in reliable sources, either in English or French. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 15:31, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I carefully read the articles and this group is definitely in grey area. Perhaps the following information will help in decisions?
There is no company, service or product. Nothing is for sale. There are no membership fees. There is no seeking of money in any way.
Wikipedia is not being used for advertising (if that's a concern) because no one would know to search it unless they already knew about it, in which case further advertising isn't required.
There is no physical holdings at all (no meeting hall, no clubhouse, no anything). It exists completely as an intellectual exercise predominantly in cyberspace, hence the desire to substantiate a verifiable internet presence.
While I appreciate concerns that it's perhaps too small an organization to merit inclusion, given it's roving status and lack of product/business model, if the internet were to censor it for not being a mega-corp of some sort, then it would be impossible to grow. The Facebook page was started about 1.5 months ago and nearly has 1000 Likes. Compared to the billions on the planet, this is nothing, but for a month and a half with no product, advertising or business behind it, that number displays the potential reach. These "Likes" span both states and countries and are only growing, so it's more significant than "my brothers band" but less than McDonalds. I don't know how big is big enough. However Wikipedia is looked to as a source of "is this real" and lack of inclusion harms its credibility, especially, again, given it's lack of a physical existence.
The purpose of the page is to affirm that it is a real thing, and to dispel any rumors, misconceptions, explain the roots etc. (And perhaps hopefully re-encourage an age where people meet - at a Ball, local pub, town square, what have you - an actually discuss the news of the day and learn something new. It's focus is as an intellectual society - meeting, learning, talking, like society once did.)
Wikipedia already has entires on several intellectual groups (and fan-groups like comic-con), the difference is that they all have a physical location and mostly look to achieve funding/profit whereas the Ball exists solely in cyberspace and has no dues or financial holdings of any kind. This creates a greater need for verification, not a lesser one. It's can be seen as the latest shift in the information age - clubhouses, dues and physicality are no longer required. But credibility is all the more important. If it's not big enough, then what is the target number for recognition?

Hi, apologies for the length of this post, but here goes:

First, numerous third-party sources exist, and have been added to the page. I'm not sure how a "thorough" search failed to turn up things like an article on Griffin in the L.A. Times, but Googling this author turns up more than ONE MILLION hits, so there's a lot to wade through.

Second, there is no claim that this book WON a Locus award. It was a FINALIST in the Best Art Books category as clearly noted. This is taken directly from the Locus Website. Please read carefully, if you are deciding whether to delete an article, and don't remove it based on a mistake on the part of the reviewer.

I also found the claim that there weren't many reviews of Griffin's work "Tarzan: The Centennial Celebration" puzzling (a "thorough search"only turned up one review and one interview?!). I provided an Amazon.com link to the book (since deleted, but here it is for those who want to vet this article: Tarzan: The Centennial Celebration), or the list of reviews on Griffin's Website (those are all hyperlinked). This book has received dozens of glowing reviews. I didn't include these in the article, because I'm trying to create a stub, and will leave it to more experienced Wikipedians to add all the reviews and proper cites, if there is a demand for that. Personally, I just want the basics who this is, what he's done, why he's notable, and where he's from--I didn't realize Wikipedia was soliciting reviews to legitimize the subject, but if reviews are needed, here is a sample quote list from a few reviews by notable online sources like aintitcool.com and Huffington Post:

“Regular AICN readers know that Titan usually knocks books of this ilk out of the park. Even taking into account Titan’s lofty pedigree, TARZAN: THE CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION emerges as magnificently presented, stunningly laid out, and beautifully guided by author Griffin & Co. This may be the company’s best work yet” – aintitcool

"At the century mark, one of the world's most enduring literary franchises is honored with a gallery of art in Tarzan: The Centennial Celebration." – Huffington Post

“The highest compliment a reader can pay to Griffin’s enormous work here is that it would be every bit as entertaining if it were an unillustrated work of black-and-white prose.” – Open Letters Monthly

“The book offers an in-depth history of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ creation courtesy of Scott Tracy Griffin, probably one of the best Burroughs scholars out there. Griffin gets in-depth but stays breezy enough for casual fans to enjoy his text.” – Uproxx

“I really can’t say enough good things about Tarzan: The Centennial Celebration. With so much information, so many great photos and pieces of artwork, backed up by Griffin’s obvious authority and appreciation for the character, this is the definitive book on the legend of the ape man.” – Top Hat Sasquatch

“Published by Titan Books, it is an eye-dazzling, mind-blowing collection of cover art and descriptive essays all about the world’s most famous fictional character. Author Scott Tracy Griffin, a Tarzan expert who is said to live within vine-swinging distance of Tarzana, Calif., has done a magnificent job of putting all this together.” – Amazing Stories

“Tarzan: The Centennial Celebration is a must buy if you ever loved Tarzan. The book is a perfect way to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the jungle man’s first appearance.” – Wired.com

“Griffin not only writes great content for anyone who has ever been a fan and is curious about the history, but he also builds a timeless collection and presents the material in chronological order . . . the quality of this book as a collector’s item is unmatched. It’s a brilliant hard cover.” – ComicHype

“A remarkable piece of work which succeeds in being both a lavish treasury of Tarzan images and a comprehensive guide to the character on his 100th birthday. Worth standing on the top of a waterfall and doing a jungle cry about!” – The Herts Advertiser

“Griffin clearly did his research, but instead of just listing off a litany of information about the book, he provides a deeper understanding of this deeply American literary establishment.” – Geek Mundo

"lovingly detailed artwork and insight." – MTV Geek

"Topped off with a look at collectibles, conventions, authorised sequels and more (not to mention a brilliant foreword from big screen Tarzan Ron Ely), there's no doubting the fact that this is a must-have for any fan of Tarzan." – Comic Book Movie

"this magnificent Tarzan tribute volume makes a compelling case that the Ape Man has as strong a grip on our collective imaginations as he always did." – Open Letters Monthly

Griffin's official bio on http://scotttracygriffin.com/ has an extensive list of his print and film contributions--I only included a small sample, including those that already have Wikipedia stubs.

Also note, Griffin has worked largely in the print media, not online. The copyrighted articles he's written for periodicals over a span of 20 years aren't available online. One of the links provided earlier today (and almost immediately removed) included a sample bibliography of his work. Here is the page with a sample bibliography of his professional canon, which began in 1993: http://www.erbzine.com/mag40/4016.html

I tried to post this stub numerous times today, and every time, my work was immediately torn down--it was obvious, giving the quick turnaround that my work wasn't being properly vetted. I was hoping that by providing a stub, others in the Wikipedia community could collaborate and come up with additional information and sources.

I realize I'm a neophyte to the Wikipedia editorial community, but I had hoped that all my hard work would be put forth to others at large for collaboration, instead of being immediately destroyed. I urge anyone who is considering this author's notability like to actually take the time to do the research by visiting the links provided and wading through some of the one million pages on Google. Please don't rely on the wiki which has been repeatedly adulterated, with chunks of it, including references, removed. (I've tried to restore the text, with additional citations, AGAIN, but who knows how long that will last?)

Thanks, I put a call out for more third-party print sources and have added a couple. I'm sure if the article remains (even if flagged), others will find more sources over time. Thanks,Carolann Wright (talk) 04:12, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I have seriously tried to located how Scott Tracy Griffin has covered "the film industry for magazines including Cinefantastique, FilmFax, and Alter Ego." The source cited for this claim is an issue of the Starkville Daily News from November 21, 2012, which is unavailable online. So I tried finding these articles in Cinefantastique, FilmFax, and Alter Ego. No luck. This article seems a house of cards. I've been unable to find any reliable sources which state anything more than that this person occasionally contributes articles about Tarzan to blogs, non-notable publications, and to self-published publications. Also, he published a picture book about Tarzan, which won no awards. I stand firmly behind my original nomination for deletion. This is an encyclopedia, not fansite. Magnolia677 (talk) 01:29, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Retain. He may not be a notable writer and actor, but he is definitely Notable for having put together the Tarzan book. It is perfectly OK for a person to be Notable for only one thing. BeenAroundAWhile (talk) 02:06, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, all,for the help. Magnolia, did you do a basic Google search for "Scott Tracy Griffin" + "Cinefantastique"? I got 5,020 hits, with numerous cites. After sorting through those (& "+ Filmfax" & "+ alter ego" etc.--all respected genre publications), perhaps you could haunt used bookstores that specialize in back issues of movie magazines? Not sure why you have such a bias against this Wiki.

Subject is a 10 year old kid who won a singing competition for 6-14 year-olds on a reality TV show last month. The show received some relatively minor media coverage including brief mention of her win. The subject does not meet the WP:MUSICBIO or WP:GNG notability standards, and essentially falls under WP:BLP1E. The page should therefore be redirected to Airtel Super Singer Junior#Season 4 as recommended by policy.

Note that the current version of the article includes lot of extraneous and unsourced details and has been WP:REFBOMBed by the article-creator (an SPA with likely COI), so do check the breadth of coverage in independent reliable sources such as [44], [45] and [46].

The subject in this article won the reality show last month after being in the competition for almost a year. The show started one year ago and broadcast on a daily basis at prime time for a full one hour on a popular Tamil TV channel STAR Vijay. Star Vijay channel is part of 21st Century Fox's STAR India network. This TV channel is available all over the world. This show is very popular among Indians and Srilankans living around the world, in India, Srilanka, USA, Canada, Europe, Malaysia, Singapore, Australia and many other parts of the world. The subject of this article came through the show unscathed of all eliminations week after week and topped hundreds of participants from around the world starting from the auditions one year ago. It also must be noted that the final winner of the competition is chosen based on scores given by eminent personalities (close to 30 in numbers) who personally sat through the 'grand finale' at the judges panel. Also 50% weightage of the scores was taken from public voting. Public from around the world enthusiastically participated in public voting which was done through a dedicated online website as well as local SMS votes from within India. This show during the course of its run over a year also featured personalities from Indian music and film industry, such as A.R.Rahman, S.P.Balasubramanyam, Dhanush among others as special guests and special judges. Winning the title of this show or even reaching to top 10 in the show is a dream for many aspiring singers as many previous winners such as Diwakar, Alka Ajith as well as many other participants have went on to make a foothold in the field of Indian playback singing for Indian film industry. Therefore, winning the title of this contest by the subject of the article is a major achievement. The grand finale and the title winner was substantially covered in mainline newspapers in India, with pictures of the subject of this article prominently shown, references of which are given in the article. Previous winners of this show such as Diwakar, Alka Ajith also have articles on them created and published in Wikipedia. Merinsan (talk) 11:05, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It is also to be noted that as public was involved in choosing the winner, the later stages of the competition generated a highly divided public opinion among viewers and the credentials of the participants were hotly debated on social forums such as Facebook. Even after the grand finale and award of the title to Spoorthi, it is still being debated among fans of other contestants accusing the channel and judges for not choosing one of their favourites. As is the case, major contestants including the winner have also gained fair amount of detractors among the general public. Merinsan (talk) 11:52, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
A select few existing editors repeatedly addressing me as an SPA may note that I am a new comer to Wikipedia, just a week old in here. This the first article I have submitted for creation. I have taken lot of help from many experienced users during the draft stage of this article. I found many of the existing editors very courteous and helpful in welcoming new comers like myself. I have always accepted and incorporated most comments suggested by experienced users during and after creation of the article. As the SPA article clearly states, "existing editors must assume good faith concerning the user account, act fairly, civilly, not bite newcomers, and remember everyone was new at some time. Care is needed if addressing single-purpose accounts on their edits". Having developed an interest in Wikipedia now, I also intend to learn more and contribute as much as possible to Wikipedia in the coming days. Thank you.

Weak keep In my opinion, the person seems to have won a reasonably-notable TV programme, and some of the article is well-sourced. I think it should be kept, but shortened, as the detail in the article seems too much. There isn't a huge amount of media coverage, but I think it's just about enough. Joseph2302 (talk) 18:57, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The prize money for this competition seems significant (a house to the winner, a kilo of gold to the second place and a car for the third). The coverage is borderline though, I found this[47] the most compelling of those listed as it goes into more detail then most (others just seem to name her as the winner) and it is not a strictly Indian press. My opinion is that there are some kernals of notability there and if other talent reality shows are anything to go by she will most likely become more famous. But I would wait for that to happen. If she releases a song and it does well or there is some more reliable coverage outside the talent show then I would be much more comfortable supporting this article in its own right. As of now though I think it can be redirected to the main article without losing any important information. AIRcorn (talk)
@Aircorn: Just as a side-note: Asian Tribune (not to be confused with this Asian Tribune) is quick a fringe-y publication, and unlike Times of India, Hindu etc not indexed by by any archival services that I know of. I very much doubt that it qualifies as a reliable source with a reputation for fact-checking etc. Abecedare (talk) 21:59, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The main article Airtel Super Singer Junior is focusing on all four seasons of the TV show, starting from the year 2007, each season running for a whole year and a Senior Season coming alternately. The main article mainly discusses about the format of the show in detail. It does not include any sections dedicated to the previous winners of the contest. Previous winners of the competition Alka Ajith and Diwakar have standalone articles on them for a long time. Therefore, in my opinion it is no harm to to keep this article about the current winner also as a standalone article. Merinsan (talk) 22:06, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The details of the prize money is also given in this source 10 albeit with a minor printing error. The winner's prize is indicated as 75-Lakhs villa in this news article whereas the actual value is 70-Lakhs Indian Rupees as advertised during the program. This may be considered as a minor printing error and can be correlated with the other sources. As Aircorn says, this prize money is significant. It is the highest amount for a reality show of this kind in this region, it is even more than what was given for the winners of the Senior Season last time. That may explain the popularity and reach of this show around the world which attracts major sponsors willing to pay such huge prize money. The show is also covered in foreign press because there have been several participants from abroad as well as there is a huge interest among people of Indian and Srilankan origin living around the world. Merinsan (talk) 04:35, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Still making myself familiar with the Wikipedia terms & definitions, I notice that I am also being referred as COI, meaning I may be having a Conflict of Interest in having submitted this article for creation. I would like to absolutely deny that I am having any COI in this regard. Honestly speaking I am a fan of the subject of this article, otherwise I wouldn't have taken trouble to write an article about her. But then, I am also a fan of music, especially Indian classical music. I am also a fan of few other contestants in the show, all of the top 6 finalists and another few from the top 10. These children are exceptionally talented and if at all any difference in quality between them it is only borderline. The subject of this article I have met only a couple of times after she had won the grand finale to congratulate her as a fan. During the period preceding the finale, I had on few occasions talked with her parents over phone as a fan giving tips on improvement in certain areas. Other than this small interaction, I don't have any association with the subject or anyone else from her family. We hail from different parts of India, never knew them before this competition. I would also have taken this task of writing an article, had one of my other favourites won the competition. Please be assured that this article is not intended for personal promotion, rather just an attempt by me to write my first article on a person I genuinely think is exceptionally talented. Merinsan (talk) 04:09, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If, as you say, you have met the article subject several times and talked with her parents about her career, you fall within the definition of WP:COISELF and should not be editing this article. -- Euryalus (talk) 10:55, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That isn't really true. Merely knowing the subject doesn't create a serious COI. It might lead to non-neutral editing, certainly, but doesn't create the kind of problems writing about yourself or being paid to write about someone does. --ThaddeusB (talk) 15:49, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thankfully we do not ban people based on their AfD comments. Please keep your personal attacks to yourself or raise your concerns in the proper venues for user conduct issues. Incidentally, "X per Y" !votes are pretty much worthless as AfD is not decided on a vote count, and such !votes are discouraged by AfD guidelines. I find it pretty ironic that someone who wants to "ban" another from editing an entire class of articles can't be bothered to follow best practice in their own editing. --ThaddeusB (talk) 15:42, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If you think the edits are in compliance with core editing policy, by all means defend it, but if you plan on lecturing me about your failure to enforce policy, it's not going to fly. I've detailed the concerns in enough detail at the article talk page, and various noticeboards. If you want to keep an editor who is clearly lacks competence, then take responsibility for him. Ncmvocalist (talk) 15:58, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thankfully, we also don't ban new users for not instantly knowing every policy... An editor of your experience should 1) have more tolerance for newbies; 2) not edit war even if you are "right"; and 3) limit discussion of user conduct to the proper venues instead of trying to use it to influence an AfD outcome. --ThaddeusB (talk) 16:05, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
And unfortunately, we keep losing competent editors because of this type of attitude. You should either be bold and take responsibility for him (like a mentor), or stop preaching. That too, especially when you are unable to practice what it is you are preach. For the avoidance of doubt, if I thought the article needed to be deleted, I wouldn't bother editing it to this extent. The outcome of the AfD isn't what I was interested in when mentioning the conduct issue here; it was with a view that someone would make an effort to address the problematic aspects of the user's editing (which, in all reality, is what actually appears to have prompted this AfD in the first place).

To stress the popularity of the show, I would like to mention few things. Even as the show's prize money is huge compared to other similar shows in this region, it can be seen that participants' main objective in the show is not to win the prize, but to get the fame and popularity comes with it as well as future opportunities to get a professional singing career in Indian film and music industry. This can be understood from the fact that Ms. Jessica, the Canadian national who came all the way from Canada and stayed in India for the whole year to participate in the show, finished runner up, one rank below the subject of the article Spoorthi. Jessica declared on the 'grand finale' stage itself that she is donating the entire '1 kg of Gold' that came as a prize, to charity, to Srilankan and Indian orphanages. Jessica also got great reception on her return to Canada at Toronto Airport, for having come to this level on the show, as can be seen in this source. This show is very popular among people of Indian and Srilankan origin living around the world. Getting a photo article about oneself on the highly respected Indian newspapers such as The Hindu and The Times of India is not a minor feat and this cannot be brushed aside as a minor media coverage. Locally, there were also interviews with the toppers of the show broadcast on radio and published on weekly local magazines. My aim in stating these here is just to stress the notability and not intended as 'promotional' Merinsan (talk) 17:46, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

But given the clear notability established by multiple reliable sources devoting whole articles to the topic, wouldn't it make more sense to keep the article and add a ((main|...)) tag to that section in Women in computing? Msnicki (talk) 17:37, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Brogrammer" isn't a topic. It's a cutesy neologism discussed in articles about the actual topic, which is the male-dominated culture of the (U.S.) technology industry. Opabinia regalis (talk) 18:02, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I would disagree though the word is used in the general media, it is used specifically for the purpose of derogatorily describing sexism in a specific industry, so it only really belongs in those places. The term is not used by or to describe literal beings (it is used to describe an idea or culture of sexism), nor would a group choose to identify as this except maybe in a humorous fashion, given the negative connotation. You might be able to argue this is a label/descriptor, but it's way too new and only used practically in writing (and always in quotes or italics, as it is not in a dictionary) to be a notable topic for an encyclopedia. This term is the very a definition of a neologism, a newly coined word or expression, and that itself could warrant deletion without even considering the other points mentioned in this discussion.

I find the article to mischaracterize brogramming as being sexist. If this changes, so will I. A man can be macho without being sexist. In its current form, the article is a platform for feminist claptrap. --IO Device (talk) 19:02, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I respect your opinion of the content. But all we consider at AfD is notability, not content. If there are multiple reliable independent secondary sources about the subject, even if they're not cited in the article, the subject is considered notable under WP:GNG and we keep the article. Content is a matter for other discussions, usually on the article talk page, not at AfD. Msnicki (talk) 19:21, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I disagree that deletion is solely about notability. I have had numerous articles on notable topics Speedy Deleted on the grounds that their content was too poor. As an aside, also consider the recent AfD discussion of pseudoginsenoside F11 where I changed my response from Delete to Keep after the article was rewritten; its notability was never in question. --IO Device (talk) 20:03, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Msnicki: While notability is certainly a big consideration, it isn't the only viable reason for deletion nor is it the sole concern per WP:DEL-REASONS. Godsy(TALKCONT) 16:46, 22 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
When I saw this thread I thought sure "beer, weights, and brotein" was meant ironically. Maybe not? In any case, the term is almost exclusively used in the context of sexism in computer science and in the technology industry. This is sort of like objecting to mansplaining on the basis that sometimes men really do need to explain things. Opabinia regalis (talk) 18:02, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I find the term sullied to promote a feminist agenda.
Maybe the food industry and science writers can catch on to writing about brotein and broscience in a similar context of sexism. And what about bromance - it's soo sexist! Now this, is meant ironically. --IO Device (talk) 19:41, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The term is not just in The Atlantic but used in many places, such as all these sources, plus it is a term in pop culture causing much interest, related to its being part of the sex wars and the dynamic field of computing; the extent of usage suggests it is way beyond the neologism stage and is indeed an encyclopedic topic, much more than a dictionary definition. How well the current Wikipedia article covers the term, currently, suggests need for improvement, but I feel the term belongs in Wikipedia regardless, to reply to @Padenton:.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 09:06, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Tomwsulcer: Per WP:NOTNEO it's not enough if the term is used by media sources, it's what the sources say about the term. Besides using it as a fancy article title or derogatorily it isn't rigidly defined or actually used to describe real world people/things, it's thrown around as a combination of two independent words to drive a idea/point or "culture" about/of sexism in tech industries. It may have a place in one of those type articles in it's own section (with a redirect even), but not its own standalone article. It isn't used in practice really outside of that stereotype (which may not even be very accurate or describe this industry as a whole). Very limited usage, I would have to disagree with you on it causing much interest in pop culture or in other words the mainstream. Godsy(TALKCONT) 09:50, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Godsy:, when NPR prominently discusses brogrammer culture, along with many many other sources, it means the term is notable. NPR talked about a "running conversation about how to constructively change the systemic, entrenched issues" talking about how the tech industry has a sexist leaning, and they used the term brogrammer to sum this up. USA Today described brogrammers as "computer programmers with frat house sensibilities" and suggested it was a hot subject in the news. That's two reliable sources but there are many more. Issues, such as whether the term is derogatory or rigidly defined or used to describe "real world" things, are irrelevant. QED notable.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 10:32, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
QED Fails WP:NOTDICT. ― Padenton |  15:12, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NOTDICT says "Each article in an encyclopedia is about a person, a people, a concept, a place, an event, a thing etc., whereas a dictionary entry is primarily about a word, an idiom, or a term and its meanings, usage and history. (I bolded the term concept). Brogrammer is a concept, easily fits within the realm of an encyclopedia entry.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 15:25, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Tomwsulcer: And all of that 'concept' is unrelated to the term itself, therefore, it doesn't belong in an article for said term, leaving the only possible content in the article the term's definition and the story about how some company used it on a sign at a college career fair. ― Padenton |  23:12, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Tomwsulcer: Those sources further my point that anyone searching for that word will be looking for the concept of sexism in the industry, not the idea of a actual macho programmer. That's why my stance is that it should be put in one of the articles above listed for a potential merge (with redirect) if someone cares to do so OR simply have brogrammer redirect to sexism in the technology industry (which is being considered for a merge with the other potential article mentioned above), while this here is deleted. It isn't used in any other context, hence no need for its own article. By WP:NOTEWORTHY the criteria for article content is less scrupulous, and I think another article on the subject it relates to is where it belongs. Per WP:NOPAGE it really needs those other concepts (in the suggested merged places above) with it to be notable, if we go by it being defined how it generally is defined as a macho programmer by this source here at pc mag encyclopedia it would clearly fall under WP:NOTDICT. So either way this article should go. Godsy(TALKCONT) 19:52, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I see the subject of sexism in the technology industry as being different conceptually from the subject of Brogrammer. Sexism can take many forms, including women being sexist as well as men, and in many industries; brogrammer, in contrast, is limited to the computer industry, describes a certain type of male programmer, and is ["tongue-in-cheek slang for a high-tech geek who works out a lot in the gym, is popular with the opposite sex, likes to party and is admired by his buddies for his flair and super coolness...". That PC Magazine thinks it is important enough to supply a definition of the term suggests there is (1) a need to know about the term (2) insufficient clarity that the term needs defining. In short, it is an encyclopedic topic worthy of being in Wikipedia.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 20:40, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. While they do define it, I take it as more of a joke than anything, the picture and caption is most certainly humor. Just because they include a neologism in their criteria for a self titled "Encyclopedia" type entry, doesn't mean it fits our criteria or belongs here in Wikipedia. It's more of a reference for the articles in that specific magazine, rather than a reputable source or standard. Godsy(TALKCONT) 22:51, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Tomwsulcer: All that's nice and dandy, but if you look at the article, you'll notice it's entirely focused on sexism targeting women. It may need a bit of work on that front, but nothing that would prevent brogrammer from being merged into it. As for PC Magazine, I think in your haste you neglected to check what else is in their dictionary, which is surprising seeing as how there's a nice navigation bar to go to words that start with any letter. Let's look at a few, shall we? Should we make sure that each of these has its own article in Wikipedia or add them to AfC? [48] How about these? [49] Do I need to continue or do you see what I am saying? Merge/Delete. ― Padenton |  23:09, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed meant to mention that myself, they don't have a high standard (in other words they are not very picky) with which they decide what they will include in their "Encyclopedia". We have a much higher standard. Godsy(TALKCONT) 23:14, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe we'll have to agree to disagree. Since Padenton questioned the usefulness of terms in PC Magazine here, we can compare their list to Wikipedia's. If we take the first 10 PC Magazine encyclopedia entries, we get Q R Code, Q Switch, Q&A, Q-bus, Q-server, Q.7xx, Q10, QA, QA Analyst, QAM. Seven are covered in Wikipedia; three are not; this shows a clear correlation between PC Magazine and Wikipedia. So I fail to see your point.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 00:31, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
A high percentage of the entries there may be notable and also have a corresponding article here, but they aren't notable here per se because they are included there. We don't know the criteria they use to determine inclusion therefore I'd question whether we can draw a correlation from that. A better word than "encyclopedia" could be used to describe their collection of information. Godsy(TALKCONT) 00:59, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict)@Tomwsulcer: again it seems you've made the mistake (unintentional, I'm sure) of taking a shortcut. Your vote, as I understand it, is in favor of giving 'Brogrammer' its own article, not merging the content to another article nor deleting it outright. Of the 10 existing articles you listed (which you claim are articles for the terms in the PC mag encyclopedia):
  • Q Switch is a red link. Q switch doesn't exist on wikipedia.
  • Q R Code is actually here: QR code, its own article, but a far more substantial topic than 'brogrammer', obviously. Q&A, as listed in that encyclopedia is actually listed here Q&A (Symantec), again, a much more substantial article. Q-bus has a full article. Q10 has a full article, BlackBerry Q10. Yet again, much more content. QA's article is here Quality assurance again, blahblahblah. QAM is a redirect to here: Quadrature amplitude modulation, again, blahblahblah.
  • Q-server doesn't have an article. It's a term for a long-defunct protocol by Novell. It comes up as blue because it's a redirect to print server, which actually makes no mention of q-server. Q.7xx also doesn't have an article, it's a redirect to Signalling System No. 7, where Q.7xx is mentioned a single time. QA Analyst is actually on WP as a redirect, Quality assurance analyst, redirects to Quality control.
So there we are, the truth at last. All the articles that actually exist of the 10 you looked at, 4 terms don't exist on wikipedia at all, and the 6 that do are far more substantial than Brogrammer. Also, unlike Brogrammer, they are not invented neologisms. None of these are actually terms. They are products, technologies, scientific concepts, or career fields, and that is why they are notable, not because someone made it up one day and it was mentioned in a few news articles. ― Padenton |  01:04, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
So, you say six, I say seven, that does not really matter, we're dickering over details. About Wikipedia and neologisms: pretty much all new terms were neologisms at one point, created by combining terms, applying a metaphor, using a portmanteau, etc. Terms like Fixer-upper and Cityscape were once neologisms but they are included in Wikipedia now, properly so. What Wikipedia does not want is to foist new terms on the public, to avoid popularizing terms invented here in workshop Wikipedia, terms which were not in the popular media, not in common parlance, but terms which Wikipedia hammered together out of thin air. To so foist would be original research. But when neologisms are born in common parlance, popularized in the media, such as brogrammer, then it is perfectly fine for Wikipedia to include it here provided it meets notability requirements (and it does). The term brogrammer is clearly out there, in use, Wikipedia can properly chronicle what it means; for further clarification, see neologism.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 11:10, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sigh, If you're not going to read, I'm not going to continue wasting my time indulging you. The subjects that had articles are not terms and were never neologisms.― Padenton |  15:17, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Tomwsulcer: Looking at WP:NEOLOGISM, which you just brought up- Articles that use the term rather than are about the term are insufficient to support articles on neologisms. No one is talking about macho programmers, it's used to convey an idea of sexism in the industry and as such it belongs solely in one of those type articles, not in it's own. Per WP:NOPAGE, "There are other times when it is better to cover notable topics, that clearly should be included in Wikipedia, as part of a larger page about a broader topic, with more context." it should be merged if it were to be included. Wikipedia:Redirects are cheap redirect the word to a sexism in computing article, it has no use or value on it's own page (article) without a broader context. WP:NOTADICT, Wikipedia is not the place to chronicle what it means, that may be appropriate for wikitionary whose inclusion criteria differs and may allow it.

I don't see it as failing DICDEF at present, but it's also a topic that deserves expansion way beyond that, to cover the cultural aspects of the male-dominated "brogrammer culture".

Fails WP:CORP and WP:GNG. Company is wholly unremarkable. Only sources (very few reliable ones) available discuss its acquisition and its new CEO, nothing more. Sources cited are not extensive and are of poor reliability. Article was created bypassing several AfC declines. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 20:39, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Author contested PROD, but concern is still seem to be noticeable ToonLucas22 (talk) 20:54, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]


The following explains why additional material has been added and why this film should have an article on Wikipedia. The authors of the article are not linked to the film makers but are Wiccans. The Coven is an important film within the Wiccan community as it accurately reflects real events. Additionally as it presents Cochranianism as the normative form of Wicca it is likely to be the subject of debate for the foreseeable future. This debate has commenced with two significant groups posting reviews. The first is the Pagan Federation, a group with many Gardnerian members and the UKs largest pagan organisation. The second is the Order of the Horse and the Moon, the most active Cochranian group in the UK. The links to the reviews are below.

http://london.paganfed.org/the-coven/

https://ootham.wordpress.com/reading/the-coven-2015/

The film is likely to be reviewed negatively by the Gardnerian Wiccan community and positively by Cochranian Wiccans. This Wikipedia page attempts to provide unbiased detail. This page has been produced Wiccan insiders. It has no connection to the film’s producers or promoters who are unknown to the Wiccan community and appear to be very small scale. This page was, however, produced by Cochranian Wiccans so bias may occur. None the less this is an important film that merits detail on Wikipedia. Additional details will be added to the page to provide information on the key issues.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Cochranefaithful (talkcontribs)

In response to the claim brought up by Cochranefaithful that it is an important film within the Wiccan community, I admit I am not too familiar with either of the groups mentioned, nor the topic of Wicca. If the film is as controversial as stated, and there is wider coverage from sites other than blogs, I would likely be swayed in support of the article, but as of right now, I'm unable to find anything in publications of any kind. IMDb did list these 2 external reviews (one not in English) which may or may not be helpful [57] [58] Padenton |  21:30, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yeah, righto. I'm not convinced the 01FilmPlot one meets WP:RS but some of the others clearly do (like the Dutch one). That's enough for me. Thanks for coming back and providing those. Stlwart111 07:09, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If you still think it should be deleted, you might want to address the sources provided. A few people have asserted that this doesn't pass WP:GNG, though Schmidt has neatly rebutted those assertions. Those participants haven't been back to address the new sources provided but you are welcome to do so. Otherwise this will probably be closed as "keep" given GNG-sufficient sources have been provided and nobody has refuted that claim. Stlwart111 11:11, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
ONUnicorn, any particular concerns about the Cinemagazine source? Doesn't fit the criteria of a capsule review. Stlwart111 03:11, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I was counting that one as a capsule review. It's about 300 words, gives a brief plot synopsis, and then a criticism of the film as boring and not worth watching. It compares it to Charmed and The Craft, but doesn't go into much depth of criticism or analysis. It does go into more detail and analysis than most of the sources cited in the article, but imo is still a capsule review (although barely - and I can see the argument that it is more, especially when compared to other sources in the article). ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 13:00, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well, it's a 3rd longer than the criteria provided and the fact that the reviewer thought the film was boring is neither here nor there - something can be notably boring. But I get where you're coming from and I appreciate your explanation. Stlwart111 13:19, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There is additional coverage at another site. Might be seen as a pagan site, but not widely known by Wiccans as far as I am aware. A lengthy review from January. http://hidden-highgate.org/coven-jurys-still/ User: Cochranefaithful — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.255.233.124 (talk) 15:27, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That was interesting and an enjoyable read. Unfortunately the problem with that site is that it seems to be a personal blog, which isn't considered a reliable source by Wikipedia's standards. See WP:BLOGS.
On the other hand, the more I think about it, the more I think Stalwart111 might be right about the Cinemagazine source, that it's just too long and detailed to be a capsule review. I'm changing my vote to keep. I think this movie just barely meets WP:NOTFILM. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 20:24, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. This is a mess. To the extent this confusing discussion is supposed to be about the redirect now at Kirby Delauter, it belongs at WP:RFD. To the extent it is supposed to be about the page now at Draft:Kirby Delauter, it belongs at WP:MFD if deletion is desired, or at WP:DRV if restoration is desired. (This is "articles for deletion", not "articles for recreation"). In other words, nothing about this belongs in an AfD. And to top it off, even if I would be certain everybody on this page was talking about the same content, and understood "keep" etc. to mean the same thing, I still couldn't find a consensus on the merits here. In other words, there's nothing to do as a result of whatever this discussion was.  Sandstein  20:13, 16 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note: To AFD "voters", please focus your attention on Draft:Kirby Delauter and express your vote to Keep, Delete, Redirect, etc., in terms of that version. There was an article in mainspace, but currently Kirby Delauter redirects to Frederick County, Maryland#Charter government. A vote of "Keep" means to adopt the draft; "Redirect" means to keep the redirect in place (or to redirect to a different target); and "Delete" means to remove even the redirect in place now. --doncram 20:17, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This is where AFD discussion about Kirby Delauter is happening. Before this AFD was opened, there was an "informal" discussion about this topic at Informal Afd on Administrator's Noticeboard, which is still available (has not been archived) as of now. No further comments were posted there after editor Cunard's first posted here (in the first post after this page was started by NE Ent, and after Cunard suggested there that AFD should be done here. I'm boldly asserting this is indeed where AFD discussion is going on, and striking out suggestion to discuss there instead. Please do discuss here! --doncram 20:04, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Since "Kirby Delauter" is a redirect, the AfD notice would likely be better served by placing it on the draft IMO. — Ched :  ?  18:08, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
At Talk:Kirby Delauter I put an ((Admin help)) request for the AFD notice to be put on the redirect, and I put a facsimile AFD notice on the Draft:Kirby Delauter page (it can't be a regular AFD tag because that causes errors, for not being in mainspace). And at the wp:AN discussion (still unarchived), I put notice of this AFD also. So notice is out there. --doncram 22:36, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I am not using WP:NOHARM as the basis for keeping the article. I am responding to this comment:

    I don't like to close as "keep salted", since there's interest among non-admins in reading it and taking stock of it first, per Diogenes above. Also I don't like to close it as "unsalt" (=recreate in some form), since that would mean the article was in mainspace for probably at least a week, and we're not in the business of shaming people for doing a stupid (not heinous, not illegal, but stupid) thing. As most of you know, the wikipedia bio is normally the first google hit on a person, and being a politician (albeit a low-profile one, without notability outside the one event), Kirby Delauter may well get googled. We're not and should not be the village stocks.

    There is no "shaming" here. Wikipedia is not being the "village stocks" here.

    Why do you believe that a subject who has received significant biographical coverage from The Baltimore Sun, the largest newspaper in his state (link to the article), prior to the January 2015 incident fails WP:BLP1E, WP:NPOL, and WP:GNG? The guidelines do not say what you think or want them to say.

    Cunard (talk) 19:24, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ah .. ok, gotcha on the "noharm" thing. Well, I just don't see anything that makes him notable is all. At best, that ill-considered remark may have given him his 15 minutes of fame, but I don't see anything beyond that (BLP1E) which makes the article encyclopedic. Lots of people have their own business - but the guy who owns the local hardware store isn't going to get an article here. To me, no matter how much lipstick you put on it, in the end, it's still just the other white meat that goes great with eggs at breakfast. Sure, maybe the "Draft" isn't vandalized right now, but once it's in mainspace - I think it will be a magnet for it. I could find plenty of articles that use the term "Lewinsky" as a term for oral sex - but it would never stand up as an article. (although that Santorum one managed - but I digress). The bottom line for me is that he just doesn't pass muster on the notability end. Hey - if it gets kept - more power to you, but I can't support a "keep" vote in my own mind. Sorry. — Ched :  ?  20:00, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Notability is a term of art on Wikipedia that is defined as whether "a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". What definition of "notability" are you using when you write "I just don't see anything that makes him notable is all"? Are you using the definition in Wikipedia:Notability or your own personal definition?

Sure, maybe the "Draft" isn't vandalized right now, but once it's in mainspace - I think it will be a magnet for it. – articles are not deleted just because they could be magnets for vandalism. If editors vandalize the article, the editors can be blocked and the article can be semi-protected or full-protected as necessary. In this case, I would support preemptive protection if an admin is willing to add it. Cunard (talk) 23:43, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note: I looked into this issue just now, after the councilman has apologized for his comments/request. The closer of this AFD, and !voters here, may want to consider comments given in the wp:AN discussion and in the wp:DRV discussion linked from near the top here, but some/all of those might have been stated before the councilman apologized and/or without consideration of anything like the current draft article. --doncram 22:36, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, if there could be an event article or coverage of the event within some other article, maybe that would be better than an article about the person. Redirecting to the government article seems incorrect. There would have to be some appropriate discussion about the councilman and the editorial and the wide coverage. Some other arguments below are pretty good, too. (However, I am not completely clear which policy, out of the list of policies suggested, 209.211.131.181 thinks is most relevant. :) ). Could the event here be covered within some other article, like perhaps a list-article about First Amendment-related dramas? --doncram 03:22, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Incidentally, I cannot help but observe that the very people who have kept this issue alive by objecting to a supposed "out-of-process" speedy deletion of the original article, a supposed "out-of-process" closure of a deletion review, and a supposed "out-of-process" closure of a discussion about the closure of the deletion review sought to avoid deletion of the reposted draft by pointing the deletion page to an out-of-process discussion under their control. Such actions can have no good effect, but only serve to turn the topic into a running sore. If this discussion fails to support recreation of an article - as I hope that it does - then that should be that, and the filibustering should end. If Mr. Delauter does something independently notable, then there will be a reason to reconsider, but not now. Let it end. 209.211.131.181 (talk) 23:13, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Frederick News-Post

  1. Kirby Delauter is not notable because of a facebook post. They're notable because that facebook post has been discussed on NPR, Washington Post, Huffington Post, CNN, BBC, Gawker, Baltimore Sun, Washington Times, Business Insider, Newsweek, NBC, MSNBC, Slate, Politico, Jezebel, Chicago Tribune, Daily Mail, Fox News etc. etc. and so on.
  2. While the rogue / IAR admin's thought process: we're not in the business of shaming people for doing a stupid ... Kirby Delauter may well get googled. We're not and should not be the village stocks. is laudable, the ship has sailed / horse is out of the barn / insert favorite cliche. When Delauter gets googled, the choice is not whether his stupid comes up, but whether it comes up here, we were can at least attempt to provide a low drama, low snark description of the event, or some other site, which is likely to be less kind. It is not our mission to create the world of knowledge, but to reflect it, and that includes folks whom become notable because of stupid; they are not our first priority: As User talk:Alan Liefting rightly illustrates: It is The Reader that we should consider on each and every edit we make to Wikipedia. We currently provide coverage for folks who are notable for one stupid event: e.g. Rosie Ruiz, Mathias Rust, Mary Kay Letourneau, Margaret Mary Ray.
  3. Therefore Kirby Delauter should exist as either an article or as a redirect to an article that documents why is notable. I suggest Frederick News-Post, the employer of the reporter Kirby threatened to sue and the publisher of the editorial reply that "went viral" [66]. NE Ent 23:20, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Therefore Kirby Delauter should exist as either an article or as a redirect to an article that documents why is notable.NE Ent, would it be better to reframe this article to be about the event (like Streisand effect)? Cunard (talk) 23:43, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, just add a small section to the News-Post article noting the interaction between their reporter and Delauter and note the coverage of the event went national. NE Ent 23:47, 17 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's an interesting idea. I would prefer a separate article about Kirby Delauter so that his January 2015 incident isn't all that readers see when they search for him. That is more harmful to him than an article that puts the event in the context of Delauter's life as a businessman and politician. Cunard (talk) 00:23, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • While a couple of people have claimed he doesn't meet WP:N no one has explained why the sources in the draft aren't significant independent coverage. And there is certainly a LOT more coverage than is found in the article (though largely about the event). Instead they seem to focus on if he's "important", which is not part of WP:N. I honestly can't see how a WP:N argument can be formed for deletion.
  • Arguments based on BLP1E are more reasonable, but haven't really addressed the significant coverage before the "event". While some of it is fairly routine coverage of a local paper, there is one extremely solid source in a major newspaper that predates the event by years and the local coverage addresses some significant issues. He met the letter (and I'd claim the spirit) of WP:N before the event. That is enough to negate a BLP1E argument. Someone notable before an event doesn't become less notable for afterwards--quite the opposite in fact.
  • Claims of NOHARM issues are dealt with quite well by the draft. If anything, the draft is biased in his favor compared to the sources (even without the event...). This issue was addressed quite well above.
Given the split !vote and relative strength of arguments, I'd say we are at a keep or (maybe) a NC outcome. My 2 cents. Back to work. Hobit (talk) 13:35, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'll add that I agree with Nyttend that a redirect isn't particularly useful, as it obscures the more useful search function, which would display a list of the article(s) (if any) that Delauter may be mentioned in. 28bytes (talk) 18:35, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • If I understand correctly, you are saying that there is coverage out there but because his job is minor, we shouldn't have an article? Also, I'm curious why you are discounting coverage in a major newspaper well before the event. Could you clarify? Hobit (talk) 21:07, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • We should indeed consider the importance of an article subject and not just the fact that they were mentioned in a newspaper. Otherwise, every time The Baltimore Sun happened to discuss the actions of a teacher, store owner, cop, or dog catcher, we'd be obligated to host an article on that person regardless of whether they have any true encyclopedic significance. 28bytes (talk) 15:08, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In practice, there are many County Councilmembers with pages on Wikipedia. I'm not sure how to search for all of them, but for one example, here are the bios for the entire King County Council - some of those members have fewer references and far less notability than Delauter, even before the one event. Unfortunately, there isn't a category of county councilmembers, not at least one that I could find - though it would be a well-populated list, I'm sure.

Should be a category, there is no content beyond a list of names, and it's unlikely there ever will be. The few sections that have anything more than a list of names (List of Emperors, List of Prime Ministers) are nothing more than copy and pasted from their respective articles. Many of the people in the list are also not notable. Categories exist for a reason. You don't need to worry about someone's wikipedia page being AfD'd and then it's still on here as a red link.

The result was no consensus. Because of the relatively poor quality of the discussion, I can't find a useful consensus either way. Most opinions are broad generalizations, assertions or guesses, but nobody has actually discussed the quality of the sources cited in the article in any detail. We'd probably need to hear from experts in the fields that can assess the quality of these sources. Until then, it's back to square one.  Sandstein  08:50, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Ism schism: And I would like to repeat the question I asked him then, which source is secondary? ●Mehran Debate● 13:34, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is that there are thousands (or perhaps millions) Hadiths in Islam, we can have a Wikipedia with thousands and millions of Hadith article. Some of them like Hadith of the two weighty things might be notable as there are lots of secondary sources available for them. Regarding this Hadith, I expand the contents of each reference. The first one which cites the sentence "A total of 29 Hadiths relate the return of Jesus, and his prayer with Mahdi's lead.", talks about the whole Hadaths about Jesus and Mahdi, while this article is talking about one specific Hadith. It is not clear if the sentence "Jesus and Mahdi will be both present at the same time and it is said that the leaders who take commands are from Quraysh, then Jesus will be the Vizier of Mahdi. That's why he will perform the prayer behind Mahdi and follow him." (which is cited by the same source) talks about this specific Hadith too. The sentences cited by this source, are general sentences that tell us "... proven strongly via numerous authentic traditions from the Messenger of Allah, who is the most truthful", there is no sign of any Hadith in that. IMO these references has been added to the article irrelevantly and we cannot prove the notability of this Hadith with them. ●Mehran Debate● 13:34, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. I have no choice but to close as no consensus. The Anome's argument actually seems to suggest that this is a kind of wavetable synthesis, and linking to Google searches (rather than actual sources) hinders its effectiveness, and the recognition that there is OR here (but not removed, so it's impossible to judge what's what) is also damning. BD2412's argument is refuted, sources and all. Clusternote refutes Arthur Rubin's suggestion. In the end the solution is (as often) to follow DGG's advice, except that Anome's keep argument is problematic, and DGG's is more procedural than contentual: no consensus.

An IP user has repeatedly nominated this for A11 speedy deletion but the article easily passes that test. The IP and the article's creator are edit warring over the CSD tag; I am nominating for deletion on behalf of the IP in order to stop this. I am neutral unless I comment below. Ivanvector (talk) 15:12, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This article is about a month old and has just been discovered by me. It is both totally unnecessary and displays (and attempts to canonize in Wikipedia) the ignorance of the inventor of the article. Nowhere is the term "Table-lookup synthesis" used by anyone in the field. Googling "table lookup synthesis" gets pages with "Wavetable synthesis", "Fixed waveform synthesis", "Sound Synthesis Theory/Oscillators and Wavetables", etc. The closest page title was "Table Lookup Oscillators Using Generic Integrated Wavetables ..." but that is still not called "Table-lookup synthesis". It is a component part of Wavetable synthesis.
The use of LUTs for oscillators in music synthesis has nothing to do with Karplus–Strong string synthesis nor digital waveguide synthesis. Nothing at all, except they're all music synthesis techniques. And it needn't be forked from either lookup table nor numerically-controlled oscillator nor direct digital synthesis, which have other, not necessarily musical, applications in electrical engineering and signal processing.
It is clearly a creation of User:Clusternote's personal vision of reality, not what reality is. Wikipedia articles should be about verifiable reality, not one editor's made-up redefinition of terminology. The editor does not want to discuss the merits of the case and does whatever he can to quash the discussion. 65.183.156.110 (talk) 15:33, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Wavetable synthesis is certainly a real thing [77], and a lot of people have used the term "table-lookup synthesis" or similar [78], so it's not an invalid title. This article looks like it contains a certain amount of original research via synthesis, but as far as I can see, the main topics it covers are valid. I can't see anything which can't be resolved by content editing and/or article renaming/merging. -- The Anome (talk) 15:25, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
So Anome, since the article is OR and SYN and has no other author of content other than the inventor of the article, and since the terminology presented both in the title and within the article reflects no other person's usage, why keep it? I am not saying that the article should be renamed or even edited. It should be deleted. 65.183.156.110 (talk) 15:33, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's not what I'm saying. The article clearly contains meaningful content that is not original research, and cites numerous resources to demonstrate that the topic meets our notability and verifiability criteria. Speedy deletion is not a way to solve article content disputes. Please consider merging the content of this article into wavetable synthesis. -- The Anome (talk) 15:41, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I realize that what I am saying is not what you're saying. I did point out that you are saying that "this article looks like it contains a certain amount of original research via synthesis" (and yet you want to "Keep" it) and what I am saying is that the article contains nothing more. And I am saying that terminology is being conflated with the existence of and in the content of the article. The term "Wavetable synthesis" has been used for a few different but related techniques. Most of that confusion centers around confusing it with simple sample-based synthesis which is what samplers and [cards] mostly do (sometimes sound cards generate sound using a real synthesis, like Frequency modulation synthesis, but most of the time these computer sound chips simply blap out a short (or long) buffer (or file) of samples. But, back in the 90s, Creative Labs was using the term "wavetable synthesis" to describe this (in the Sound Blaster, which started some of the confusion back then.
What Clusternote is doing is unilaterally muddying the terminology waters again. He doesn't understand any of this and wants to legitimize his lack of understanding with a Wikipedia article he can point to. Note that no one else has contributed content to it. It's a novel that Clusternote solely is writing. And he's writing it using Wikipedia as a platform.
Lot's of audio processing and synthesis algorithms read numbers from an array in memory. E.g. reverb algorithms do that, they lookup numbers in an array (or "table"). But we don't call them "Table-lookup synthesis". Like digital reverberators, Karplus–Strong string synthesis, physical modelling synthesis, digital waveguide synthesis all have delay lines. In a delay line, numbers are written to an array and later read from the same array. None of these algorithms are, in any manner, wavetable synthesis and Clusternote is trying to use Wikipedia to make that false connection. Wavetable synthesis has some relationship with samplers|sample-playback "synthesis" but is not the same and it has a closer relationship with numerically-controlled oscillator and direct digital synthesis (which are not even music synthesis topics) but is not quite the same (except in a degenerate, static case). 65.183.156.110 (talk) 17:16, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Pollefeys is totally unrelated. Has nothing to do with the topic here. Maher and PC Mag are examples of the conflation of terms in the 90's that Clusternote is trying to perpetuate, using Wikipedia. 65.183.156.110 (talk) 17:29, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: to @Arthur Rubin: The current content of article "Wavetable synthesis" is clearly too narrow, thus redirection is inappropriate. That article explain about a subclass of "Multiple wavetable synthesis" (Horner, Beauchamp & Haken 1993) which is a subclass of generic wavetable synthesis explained on this article. Unfortunately, the generic wavetable synthesis invented in the late-1950s (Table-lookup synthesis) and its sub-subclass invented in the late-1970s (Wavetable synthesis) are sometimes called in the same or very-similar name for a few decades, thus often confused. However, the coverages of these are completely different, as written on Curtis Roads 1996, p. 87. --Clusternote (talk) 12:34, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result was redirect to Brian Charles Lara. Consensus exists that there shouldn't be a separate article, nor was there a valid argument against a redirect.

Of the first of those, the innings is notable only in the context of the Test match, so the article should be about the Test match, not the innings. In Laxman's case, the Second Test, 2000–01 Border–Gavaskar Trophy already has an article, and any attempts to make a separate article for Laxman's 281 would surely be merged into it. That would be a suitable location for discussion and plaudits about the innings.
For the second of those, including Lara's 375, it is the innings which is notable, not the Test Match. However, I don't think we have content to fill a useful article about an innings with no otherwise notable match context. The article as it stands now describes the innings in cursory detail (e.g. Lara scored 375 from x balls in y minutes with z boundaries) followed by some quotes and historical context – which is better served as a paragraph in Brian Lara. To expand the content to something which could stand alone as an article, we'd probably need to provide the ball-by-ball Cricinfo commentary; and then it just becomes a stats dump without a lot of encyclopedic value. As such, I think redirection to an anchor point is the most suitable course of action. Aspirex (talk) 23:19, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
