Apparent lack of sufficient notability to satisfy WP:NACADEMIC Geogene (talk) 23:19, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

And I realize he wrote an important book about Wikipedia, but I agree with the editor that created the page (as a redirect to the book) in 2011 that the subject isn't notable. I realize that we tend to have biases here that may make the subject appear more notable to us than, say, an assistant professor in the humanities, and think policy should apply equally.

This list has been vastly reduced through the exclusion of unsourced cruft, but in the end the unfixable problem is that the title is WP:OR and WP:SYNTHESIS. It is an interpretation that these observations were caused by (unidentified) objects passing between the observer and the sun or moon.

@TEB728: From what I've seen, it is a web video. To be specific, it's on Vimeo. And it isn't notable; it hasn't been the subject of reliable coverage, so even if it wouldn't fall under any CSD criteria, it would still fail WP:NFILM. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 08:14, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think the vimeo is just a 1-minute trailer. But you may be right that it is a web video, for the facebook page has a 38-minute youtube, which I think is the whole film. I don't see now where I got the idea there was some other release. In any case it certainly fails WP:NFILM. —teb728 t c 08:53, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Redundant. The subject doesn't merit its own article, and all the content can be covered by other existing articles (see the various discussions on Talk:Irish language in Britain). Note 1: The article has been proposed for merging into other articles for three years, but nothing's happened. Note 2: A proposed deletion ("PROD") notice I added a few hours ago has been removed (so presumably the proposed deletion is opposed). A bit iffy (talk) 21:21, 6 March 2015 (UTC).[reply]

Depends what one's definition of 'Britain' is. Although it is often loosely used as synonymous with the UK, I think many here are taking it as meaning Great Britain, or the UK without NI.--A bit iffy (talk) 07:10, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If Great Britain is meant by "Britain", then Great Britain should be in the article title and text, and the article should be re-named Irish language in Great Britain. Softlavender (talk) 07:23, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, 'Great Britain' would have been clearer, and this was actually proposed at Talk:Irish language in Britain#Move request. However, that proposal was turned down pending resolution of the discussion to merge or delete. But nothing got resolved after three years, and the merge notice was just left there hanging.
It's usual on Wikipedia to use 'United Kingdom' not 'Britain' when referring to the sovereign country, so this is why I've assumed 'Great Britain' is implied.
--A bit iffy (talk) 07:51, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
However we can't make assumptions on Wikipedia; we need to be specific and also internally consistent. That move request was inherently problematic itself because it was made two days after a merge proposal and it requested two different and opposing move options rather than one. As for the merge proposal, the reason it went nowhere is because no one knew it existed -- a merge tag was not posted on the destination article as required per WP:MERGE, nor was the discussion placed on the destination article's talk page as recommended per WP:MERGE.

Falls into categories of WP:INHERITED and WP:1E. As the article states, "Cosby remained a private figure". Content could be redirected to an article about the case itself, but as a standalone article on the son of Bill Cosby being shot and killed, where's the actual notability aside from the one incident?

Not a joke at all. Before he was killed and the media made a big deal about the death of Bill Cosby's son, no one had heard of Ennis Cosby. In fact, since the murder and trial, no one hears about him any longer. Both facts cause this article to fall under wp:inherited and wp:1e. Not enough to establish notability. Again, fails GNG. -- WV 18:58, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"Such deaths are usually entitled Death of... or Murder of... rather than, as here, with the victim's name" It then seems to me that the article needs to be rewritten, refocused on the murder of Cosby rather than on the individual who was not notable, but perhaps his death was. Speedy keep seems out of place in light of your comments, E.M.Gregory. -- WV 18:05, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It speedily and obviously passes notability. Other discussions belong elsewhere.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:24, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
"This well-sourced article about the notorious and widely publicized murder of the son of celebrity Bill Cosby" That's where you're wrong, E.M.Gregory. The article isn't about the murder, it's about the son (otherwise the article would be titled "The murder of Ennis Cosby"). If the article were only about the murder, it might be an article to keep. As it is, the article is about the individual murdered, someone who is "notable" only per WP:INHERITED and the murder (WP:1E). Neither is enough to keep this article as is, an article on an individual who is only known because of who is father is and for one event. Neither is enough of a reason to keep this article written as is and focused on the non-notable individual. I agree with SNUGGUMS, it should be redirected to the Bill Cosby article and a section on the murder of Ennis Cosby created (or updated, if such a section already exists). -- WV 19:01, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Can we agree, then, on Keep and move to Murder of Ennis Crosby? The murder was an enduring focus of national attention.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:01, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
E.M.Gregory: No. As I said above, "it might be an article to keep". Other than the fact the victim was Bill Cosby's son, I don't think even the incident was particularly notable. People get killed daily in the manner Ennis Cosby did in L.A. and cities like it with high murder/crime rates. -- WV 20:09, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In short: highly questionable that it passes WP:AUTHOR, WP:BIO, WP:GNG

Claim: This person has does not satisfy general notability as many of the sources here are not even covering him, or are from personal blogs. He doesn't have any of the achievements or accomplishments under WP:BIO or WP:AUTHOR.

I'll go through each source now:

Conclusion: At the very least, notability is questionable. I think that it's not established here. Most of these sources and the content they back appear to be about work that isn't widely regarded in that there doesn't seem to be widespread coverage. There aren't any sources that cover him and his work; sources that show he is notable in his field. For the controversy articles, they just use him to validate the claims. He doesn't seem to have any awards or large wins in his field. He does seem to a competent person in his field, but as far as I can tell, he's just another guy doing his job and we don't write articles on such people.

But what fascinates me more is the reverence for Wikipedia implicit in McMillen's piece, and in more and more pieces about Wikipedia in the past few years. When I assisted E.J. Dickson at the Daily Dot on her hoax story last year, I noted with surprise how she felt genuinely bad about her actions. And I've since been attuned to seeing how widespread these feelings are. Even redditors, who can make fun of everything, revere wikipedia -- "Today I Learned" threads there regularly propel weird articles into the weekly WP:TOP25. We have a generation of younger folks now, including journalists, who grew up with Wikipedia. They are generally aware of the risks of using it uncritically, but they consider it an incredible resource built on a model that common sense says simply should not work. Nerdy people always wrote history, we just have a different set of nerds now. The institutionalization of Wikipedia is fascinating to behold.--Milowenthasspoken 13:13, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • His article on Wikipedia is very fine (though I laughed at all the graphics showing people with their article word counts, showing how the obsessive attention to his article made him stand out), but it is hard to write a BLP based on some book reviews. The way this discussion is going essentially shows that McMillen falls into the gray area in the community where notability can be debated. If kept, I agree it has to be significantly pruned, and Andrew can compare himself in word count to Gaelic footballer BLPs.--Milowenthasspoken 15:07, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
As a WP:CREATIVE just need sources about his work, not person. For example WP:AUTHOR #3 is met with book reviews. There are two review-like sources from reliable sources. Not enough for me, but there you go (since you asked for two). -- GreenC 01:28, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Puzzled by these comments. User:Wnt points to a published profile [9] of McMillan recently added to the page from the Brisbane Times, a blue-linked, commercial, online newspaper that looks to have a staff of paid journalists, the article is aprofile of McMillan, not an article by him. To me, it adds to the argument made by User_talk:Green Cardamom (who added it to the page), that an author passes WP:GNG and WP:CREATIVE when there are multiple, reliable sources about his work.
Salting (User:Davey2010), like deleting, not only ignores the guidelines worked out for notability - and seems vindictive - it opens Wikipedia to mockery. We need to pack away personal umbrage, because deleting this article would issue a gilt-edged invitation to McMillan to sell an article about how absurd the Wikipedia editing process is.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:19, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I definitely oppose "salting", which is not a normal part of a first AfD discussion and in any case is just really annoying overall. I also will admit I pretty much ignored the specialty novelty guideline because (a) I don't think we should have any, and (b) it's so weasel you can argue whatever you want from it. I mean, Wikipedia:Notability (people) starts by listing the GNG -- then it gives a bazillion exceptions for "significant" awards and "important" figures and so forth -- then at the end it says that if the basic criterion isn't met while additional criteria are, you shouldn't have a separate article anyway! If anyone wants to put that turd of a guideline up for deletion you can count on my vote! Wnt (talk) 12:55, 13 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - to me this seems to be Sanjoy64 changing his signature, and there's technically no requirement that the signature include the username. However, when this leads to multiple "Keep" votes (except this isn't really a vote) in the same discussion, given under different names, it may look as if Sanjoy64 were trying to "stuff the ballot box". Thus I'd ask you, Sanjoy64, to not note additional comments on this page as "Keep" and to indicate at least here on this page that any further comments from you are from the same person who previously commented as "Sanjoy64".

    The book notes:

    In the 1950s the doyen of Nepalese anthropology Dor Bahadur Bista accompanied by Christoph von Furer-Haimendorf visited East Nepal. His ethnographic notes were published in the classic People of Nepal (1967). In a separate chapter Bista deals with the Kirati but includes only the Rai, the Yakha and the Limbu. The Sunuwar and the Jirel are subject of a separate chapter and their relationship to the Kirati remains unexplained. Unfortunately Bista places the Sunuwar in respect of their culture, language and physical appearance close to the Magar and writes: "Some believe that they are offshoots of the Magar, others that they came from Simraungarh in the eastern Terai" (1980: 69).

    The book notes:

    The following year, Dor Bahadur Bista published his immediately definitive People of Nepal, in which the Thangmi get little more than a passing mention: [quote]

    Although mistaken, Bista's classification of the Thangmi as culturally similar to the Tamang was destined to stick, and many secondary sources and textbooks published after Bista have perpetuated this error.

  • Subedi, Salil (2000-07-26). "Dor Bahadur Alive". Nepali Times. Archived from the original on 2015-03-06. Retrieved 2015-03-06.

    The article notes:

    Dor Bahadur Bista, Nepal's best-known anthropologist, social scientist and activist, disappeared suddenly and without trace a little over five years ago while working on a development project in the remote western hill district of Jumla. The mystery of Dor Bahadur's disappearance deepened with rumours that he had been killed by high-caste villagers who opposed his radical consciousness-raising among the poor. Even his family had given up hope.

    Dor Bahadurs work started in the 1950s when he collaborated with the Austrian anthropologist Christof von Furer-Haimendorf on a sociological and anthropological study of Nepal. The result was his seminal work, People of Nepal (1964).

  • The book is mentioned as a "noted study" in Encyclopædia Britannica's "Nepal" article. http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/409152/Nepal/23653/Additional-ReadingWebCite.
The sources call the book "classic", "definitive", "seminal", and "noted". The author, Dor Bahadur Bista, is called "Nepal's best-known anthropologist". Although I did not find "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" (from Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline), I think the book's article should be kept using the guidance from Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Academic and technical books ("how influential the book is considered to be in its specialty area").

It wasn't a blatant hoax, despite my initial suspicions (some of the content clearly was a hoax). However, I'm seeing no evidence of notability. IMDB indicates that it won't come out until next year, and nowhere else seems to actually contradict that (most places don't even mention a release date) - and there's precisely 0 evidence of notability right now, either in the article, or in a Google search. I think it's WP:TOOSOON for WP:GNG to be met. It is also worth noting that the article creator was blocked for being a disruptive editor, as they had perpetuated quite a few hoaxes.

Unfortunately, those results are almost entirely unreliable sources or mere mentions of the subject. Of the two source you added to the article, the goal.com sources comes up with "This webpage is not available" and the newsday.com source is about the New York Cosmos winning the Lunar New Year AET Cup. None of these sources carries significant coverage of the 2015 Lunar New Year Cup as an independent subject.- MrX 02:31, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Not at all "almost entirely unreliable sources" - the burden of proof is on you. From the search on "羊年賀歲盃" it also got plenty of secondary reliable sources. The goal.com link has no problem, and the Newsday link has the video of the match; they are significant coverages of the subject. STSC (talk) 03:34, 25 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This a bulk deletion nomination for all of the articles in Category:Apache_httpd_modules except for List of Apache modules.

These articles are all for plugins for the Apache HTTP server. I think don't think they're notable according to wp:nsoft: They're just modules which provide a particular feature to Apache. Some of these pages are quite short... just a declaration of what the module is and what it does... and I would imagine there probably isn't any more to say about them without the descending into writing technical documentation.

Since we already have a list article that enumerates apache modules, I propose that we delete these articles and merge content as necessary into List of Apache modules.

This deletion nomination follows on from a successful nomination for a single Apache module, Apache Rivet (delection discussion here). The outcome of that discussion was a soft delete after no quorum was achieved. tommylommykins (talk) 16:11, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Here is the full list of nominated articles: Globule (CDN) Mod jk Mod deflate Mod gzip Mod lisp Mod mono Mod oai Mod openpgp Mod proxy Mod ssl Mod wsgi Mod php Mod parrot Mod perl Mod python Mod qos Mod ruby Phusion Passenger SuEXEC
I am concerned that the no quorum status of Apache Rivet's AFD discussion devalues the precedent of that article's successful deletion, but I'm not sure what I can do to raise interest in discussing this deletion proposal. tommylommykins (talk) 16:35, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - there is no reason why a plugin can not achieve notability in itself. Some plugins are more notable and feature rich than individual programs. I've added a 'reliable' source. Jonpatterns (talk) 10:07, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm, having seen your addition to Phusion Passenger, I have changed my mind and think it is a notable article. This suggests that I may have raised some of these deletion requests in error.
I still think that a fair few of these articles are undoubtedly non-notable on their own (mod_lisp, mod_parrot, mod_oai..) and should be deleted. Perhaps that is a discussion for a separate AFD (and perhaps I should bring more evidence to back my case in that discussion). tommylommykins (talk) 18:40, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also, please be aware that the original proposal was for a merge into a list article rather than a straight out deletion. I still feel this is appropriate for the majority of these articles (although again, perhaps that is a topic for a more specific AFD.) tommylommykins (talk) 18:43, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't check every plugin listed, some may be suitable for a list or deletion. Perhaps give each page an individual AfD. Maybe there is a discussion somewhere on how to handle plugins. Jonpatterns (talk) 18:55, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think the general software notability guidelines ought to be good enough here. I don't think the pluginny nature of these plugins will has much meaning here. tommylommykins (talk) 19:19, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If notability is established though, there is the question of the name. WP:NCROY is not clear on whether she should be called "princess", given that nobility titles bear no sovereignty anymore. Take that with a grain of salt; it might be my Frenchness talking, and I notice such articles often have the title in English WP but not in French WP (fr:Jean-Christophe_Napoléon vs. en:Jean-Christophe,_Prince_Napoléon; fr:Henri_d'Orléans_(1933) vs. en:Henri_d'Orléans,_Count_of_Paris). Tigraan (talk) 15:44, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well, yes, of course the Queen of England will invite 'Princess XXX' and not 'Mrs. XXX' is such a title can be found. I do not think the Queen of England (or any other nobility, whose titles are active or inactive) is a reliable, non-biaised source, though. Conversely, I suppose Dennis Skinner would show the opposite bias. (Which does not prevent the QoE or DS to be reliable sources on other subjects).
The question would better be "what are them called by the media", but then there is the problem that such persons are of interest to the media at least partly because of their nobility. Tigraan (talk) 15:53, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is weird. A sub-article of the novel Under Plum Lake that is vastly longer than its parent. Possibly a small portion could be merged there. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:18, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and condense. The fictional setting is surely but one aspect of the novel. Egon (fictional country) is way too in-universe, and fails WP:GNG. A few sentences should be sufficient as part of plot description. --Animalparty-- (talk) 09:54, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I thought that had been refuted. Does it ever make sense to refer to a pernicious, and have the reader know other than by context that it refers to a pernicious number? Can it be used as a noun, or is it an adjective that modifies the noun "number"? Would we keep a dab entry in that case? Without being followed by "number", the first example in the article reads "[t]he first pernicious is 3, since 3 = 112 and 1 + 1 = 2, which is a prime." Is that nonsense? As a counterexample, prime is a noun that refers to a kind of number; is pernicious? I think it is not but I had never heard of it before yesterday so I'm not sure. Ivanvector (talk) 14:26, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Same question could apply to pernicious anemia. The epidemiology section would read: "Pernicious is estimated to affect 0.1% of the general population and 1.9% of those over 60, accounting for 20-50% of B12 deficiency in adults.[ref in article]" Does that make sense? Ivanvector (talk) 14:29, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It's used in sentences like "even prime numbers are pernicious." Siuenti (talk) 23:52, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That's more in the way of an adjective than a noun, though. "Some cars are green" doesn't mean you'd say "I wrecked my green when I went through a red." Clarityfiend (talk) 08:34, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it's an adjective, but people look up adjectives as well as nouns. Siuenti (talk) 11:36, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
A person typing "blue" into the search bar should not expect to find an article about blue cheese. If, however, there was a concept in cuisine called "blue" or "blueness" that was distinct from the colour blue and that was most directly relevant to the blue cheese article, those would be the only cases that including Blue cheese on Blue (disambiguation) would be appropriate. Unless there are valid sources that refer to "perniciouses" or "perniciousness" as a mathematical concept distinct from lethality, then Pernicious number is not a valid entry on this disambiguation page.

Not a sufficiently notable neologism (WP:NEO). Previous AfD from two years ago was closed no consensus, but most of the keep arguments look pretty poor. The article as it is is extraordinary poor and poorly sourced, but this is not a nomination based on the present article but rather due to being unable to find sufficient sources demonstrating that this term is notable.

  • @Stalwart111: The thing is, either the subject is about a term or it's about a disorder. Once we choose which the article is about, a whole lot of sources are ruled out. If it's a real phobia, all sources have to meet standards of WikiProject Psychology and/or, depending on the context, WP:MEDRS. Both of those remove Cooper, who is central to the article. If, however, it's a "term" and not a psychological disorder, the psychological disorder sources are irrelevant as they would be about some little-known disorder and not about the term coined by Cooper. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 12:43, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • I know where you're coming from but I disagree that it needs to be one or the other. It can just as easily be a term that some have argued fits the description of a phobia. It's like the Chalice of Doña Urraca - most agree its a nice goblet, some argue it's the Holy Grail. So we cover both in the article. No reason we can't do the same here. It's not really up to us to decide anyway. Stlwart111 08:15, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The term is also listed and defined in:
These are reputable academic publishers. The term and concept is also discussed in academic journals, e.g.
It's also defined explicitly in
So, the term is at least 25 years old. The case for claiming this term as a non-notable neologism is pretty weak. The case for improving the article, however, is very strong. Good quality sources to enable that do exist. The problem is the article currently seems to be a slugfest between editors with differing points of view. Voceditenore (talk) 12:50, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • These are mainly about the disorder, but the parts of these sources truly about the disorder, rather than the neologism aren't much more than scant mentions. An encyclopedia about guns, an anthropology journal, and a business journal are furthermore not reliable sources for medical/psychological information. I'm not saying sources don't exist, and I appreciate you bringing these here, but the sources that exist are a combination of unreliable, brief mentions, or about the term. As Wikipedia is not a dictionary, we need enough material for an encyclopedia article, too. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 13:01, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, the sources I listed are not mainly about the disorder, they are about the cultural phenomenon and the word used to express it. "Hoplophobia" is not simply a term. It is a concept, one that is widely discussed, whether or not it is a "medical condition". That argues for changing the focus of the article, not for deleting it. It is quite valid to have an article about a concept and the common term used to express it, how it had been used in the literature of various disciplines and at various times, the cultural ramifications of "fear of weapons" etc. You are misinterpreting "not a dictionary", in my view, unless of course you think Islamophobia, Existential quantification, Divertissement etc. should likewise not be articles. Voceditenore (talk) 13:26, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Actually look at Islamophobia. It says verbatim "The word Islamophobia is a neologism" and the reason it's included in Wikipedia is because there are so many sources about the subject as "prejudice against, hatred towards, or fear of the religion of Islam, Muslims, or of ethnic groups perceived to be Muslim". It does not purport to be a psychological disorder and does not require citing sources which call it as much because it's not that. This, on the other hand, entirely depends on sources which talk about it being a purported mental disorder, including sources you just cited. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 13:53, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Once again, no. The first source I gave discusses it in the context of "demonization", a cultural phenomenon, including the use of the term itself as a cultural phenomenon. The article in Critique of Anthropology likewise discusses it as a cultural phenomenon. The article in Medicine and War discusses it not as a psychiatric disorder but in the context of the history of opposition in the German medical profession to weapons of war in themselves, again a cultural phenomenon. Yes, it's a neologism. Yes, it's a cultural phenomenon. No, it is probably not a "medical condition" in the strictest sense. Reliable sources are available for a short article about the cultural phenomenon, the term which has been coined to describe it, and indeed the use of the term itself as a cultural phenomenon. There is no need to write the article as if were a medical condition or to delete the article simply because it is not a medical condition. Having said that, I wouldn't be opposed to merging some of the information about the term/concept as a cultural phenomenon into another article {if an appropriate one exists, possibly Jeff Cooper?) and turning Hoplophobia into a redirect. As Nyttend points out, it's a term people are highly likely to search for. Voceditenore (talk) 14:44, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Islamophobia is a neologism. Would you support deleting it? Pax 17:37, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
By equivalent rationale, would you agree that Islamophobia should be shunted off into some other article as simply being "part of the vernacular" of Islamist propaganda? It's not a medical condition either. Pax 17:36, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I would think that Islamophobia is used by people worldwide in correspondence with worldwide extremist terrorism. Its frequency and ubiquity of use would probably make it more than just part of the vernacular of any particular group. It is a neologism and its merits are certainly debatable, however, and it could also be subject to an AFD.99.242.102.111 (talk) 18:09, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Let me get this straight: 99.242.102.111 !votes delete on the basis that the subject is not taken seriously as an actual medical condition (there being, at that time, a "Medical status" section in the article largely being used as a coatrack for straw-man fallacy dismissals). I agree that such claims are bullshit, and remove the offending section.. What happens next? He adds it right back in, because, I can only surmise, he needs the article to continue looking ugly in order to entice additional delete !votes. Pax 14:23, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Ouch. No. I am trying to be fair to the others here who do believe it is a medical condition (read here and in the Hoplophobia talk page). I agree that it is not a medical condition. The entry as it is now is equivalent to the Wiktionary entry. I don't think this term deserves its own WP entry and I voted for it to be deleted.

The lecture and "suggestion" from you is truly unnecessary and out of line as well as inappropriate for this forum, EoRdE6. Your assessment of my motives is hardly AGF and is filled with incorrect assumptions bordering on personal attack. But, since you've only been editing barely six months, I can see how someone so new and young enough to be my grandchild would make such an error.
My estimation of the article stands: no notability truly established. Not to mention the article relies almost solely on primary sources. It's a puff piece at best. Being the ancestor of so-and-so, mentioned in a geneology list, and the descendent of another guy doesn't make for notability and falls under WP:INHERITED. What's more, a long list of references is no good if the references are worthless in the scope of making a truly encyclopedic article of a notable individual. -- WV 15:58, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I know about NHK as the biggest TV in Japan and Dour Festival as the most popular festival in all Europe (almost 200.000 people this last years when Igorrr was playing [2]). According to the post I see above, Igorrr was apparently interviewed by Canal+, this makes the Igorrr place in Wikipedia definitely relevant to me. 79.194.6.98 (talk) 08:50, 20 February 2015 (UTC) — 79.194.6.98 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Also, I know that 'YouTube and Facebook aren't reliable sources', but the Facebook link I provided gives, in turn, links to tens of reviews and interviews of Igorrr, some of which you may think are notable. Finally, about the current sockpuppet investigation, I just want to mention that Aeternus, who filed this article for deletion, also launched the SPI when he saw three people coming here to defend Igorrr and Ad Noiseam. In fact, the head of Ad Noiseam posted something on Youtube about hiw the Ad Noiseam and Igorrr pages were filed for deletion, and some of us "fans" came here to defend them.

I have prodded it under the following concern: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement". It was deprodded by User:Samuel J. Howard under the following rationale: "here are multiple reliable independent non-trivial sources in the legal press and in the Italian media". Well, the legal press mentions refer to one dedicated article in The Lawyer ([70], closed access so I cannot verify even from my university). There's an unformatted ref to Il Sole 24 Ore ([71]), through I don't speak Italian so I cannot judge its quality. Not sure what other reliable sources are there; half are from beplex.com - company's own website, and other half are annotated as "press room", i.e. promotional self-published press releases. I am not sure if - at best - two dedicated stories make this pass WP:CORPDEPTH, but I am open to further discussion (and preferably, more RS being presented). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:51, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The Wall Street Journal has called Bonelli Erede Pappalardo a "leading Italian law firm".[72]. An article in la Repubblica, a major Italian newspaper, calls the firm "probably the biggest law firm in Italy".[73] The article in The Lawyer cited in the article is free with registration [74] and confirms 100 Million Euros in revenue. There are other articles in The Lawyer [75]. Corriere della Sera, one of Italy's oldest newspapers, covers the firm [76] and runs an article about the firm from Dow Jones Newswires [77].
Let me cite another article from ALM Media's American Lawyer Daily that calls the firm "elite", "top-tier", "leading" and a "powerhouse".[78]--Samuel J. Howard (talk) 14:53, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'd ask @Piotrus: to be careful in his deletion of articles about companies. This and his deletion request for Mint.com do not show adherence to WP:BEFORE part D, which require that one look for additional sources before nominating an article for deletion. He extensively analyzes the sources cited in articles, but that is not sufficient. --Samuel J. Howard (talk) 14:37, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: That article was so ugly that, after I took the chainsaw to it, there was only one sentence left. Of the two sources that remained after spam-removal, one Google considered untranslatable, so I pitched it. That leaves an allegedly notable subject in need of one more RS. (Presumably you or Howard or whomever will now add it, we'll close this on a keep or non-con, forget about it, and a year from now all the shaved-off crud will slowly creep back in.) Pax 07:25, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the removed material restored, sourced material is not supposed to be removed with vague and POV edit summaries such as "chainsawing", nor this interisting article by Il Sole 24 Ore (which basically backs most of the informations included in the article) could be considered "spam" or something "Google considered untranslatable" (???). Chainsaws could be dangerous, they need to be used with more caution. Furthermore, (again) WP:UGLY is never a valid reason for deletion, this is a non-argument. And "allegedly notable subject in need of one more RS" is a blatant nonsense, just read the sources listed above by Samuel J. Howard, then please read WP:NRVE The absence of citations in an article (as distinct from the non-existence of sources) does not indicate that the subject is not notable, and notability requires only the existence of suitable independent, reliable sources, not their immediate citation. --Cavarrone 08:22, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Going by what I see in the article as of your last edit six of its nine sources are beplex.com WP:Primary bio puffery of the principles (two of whom are left as "red links"), and do not concern the firm itself. Of the two sources remaining, one is the untranslatable Italian trade paper...but since we can't read it, we cannot be certain that the claims in the table match it (i.e., aren't bullshit). The last source, regarding news of the merger, arguably represents a WP:Routine business announcement - such are useful as backup sources, but they shouldn't carry the entire weight of an article. Basically, this page remains badly sourced with zero useful mainstream RS.
Of Samuel J. Howard's found sources (listed above), the first two (WSJ and Repubblica) are not about the subject. Next is The Lawyer announcing it "smashing the $100 million Euro revenue ceiling" in 2006...which seems impressive until you realize that even its current E130M is nowhere remotely close to getting in the top 100 law firms by revenue (because the world is smothered in law firms, and a quick glance at a few Wikipedia articles of those at the bottom of the list tells me there's a massive iceberg of spam lurking in the deep dark where AfDs fear to venture). The other "coverage" provided consists of one-paragraph boilerplate.
If we're to keep this, there should be something out there concerning this allegedly "leading" firm that is more than passing mentions, head honcho bald-pate-polishing and "NEWS FLASH" regurgitated press-releases (lookin' at you, Corriere Della Sera). Pax 11:40, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
WP:PSTS (primary sources could be used in an article), WP:SIGCOV (significant coverage does not need to be the main topic of the source material), WP:SOURCEACCESS (sources are not required to be online or accessible for free, I myself generally use offline sources - books I own - for biographies of authors, actors, and directors). If you are looking for an interisting article about the firm, as I pointed above, just read the Il Sole 24 Ore article which is already included in the article (Google Translate works fine for me, if it does not work for you just use another traslation program).

Hi I can understand to a certain level that you think the club has no notability I would disagree however I understand your perspective. Would then also request that the other clubs with the Cheshire Association Football League are reviewed as we all have been in existence for 80 plus years and all play at the same level of the game with a similar level of credibility. We are Northern Cup champions 3 years running and have had one of our player play for England 6 aside competition at the last world Cup for a team of this level I don't know what else could improve are credibility  ? Kind regards Mark — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hofabooz (talkcontribs) 13:24, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The only other four clubs who field their first team in the Cheshire League and have an article have either played at a higher level (Garswood United in the North West Counties League) or have played in the FA Cup, Trophy or Vase (Knutsford, Rylands, Middlewich Town). WP:FOOTY guidelines are that a club should have done one of these in order to have an article, unfortunately Billinge haven't done either as far as I can see............ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:19, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The other grounds on which a club can have an article is if it can be proven to meet WP:GNG by having been the subject of in-depth coverage in multiple reliable third-party sources i.e. major news sites or equivalent. This means that the club itself must be the subject of the coverage and it must be covered in detail i.e. not just passing mentions, routine match results or lists of reports. Might that be the case.....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:02, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

True, but those court documents only mention Communicourt in passing (understandably), and don't consitute significant, in-depth coverage of the company. I really want to be proven wrong about this: they seem notable to me too, so it's surprising that there apparently haven't been any articles about them in the mainstream press, or reasonable coverage in books. Dai Pritchard (talk) 14:50, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • No policy or guideline supports that approach and there is no reason whatsoever to do that. In this case independent sources confirm that there only two private organisations providing intermediaries and both of them are correctly discussed in the article on intermediaries on the basis of those sources. If the NYT wasn't notable, we certainly would redirect it to a list of newspapers, because bibliography is within the scope of our project and deleting the redirect would break our citations and be harmful for other reasons examples of which are given here and here.

Questionable notability and significance, and I think there may be an attempt to protect the article with a sock/meat puppet - both Sinan.u.ozdemir (talk · contribs) and Wrecklessasian (talk · contribs) are very new accounts that seem to have a very vested interest in this particular article, so I'd be interested in observing there behavior here before moving to deciding whether or not to move this over to WP:SPI.

Basically, I asked for references on the article's talk page but none came.

The whole thing looks like a hoax, though it might just be something real inflated to the extreme, it is just hard to know. As I see it, there are two kinds of "plasma weapons" out there: stuff which relies on lasers, that are themselves created by plasma, which are well documented but not really "plasma weapons", and stuff from Star Wars with no serious evidence of existence ("PEP" or pulsed energy projectiles). I hence recommend to delete the thing - unless evidence appears now, it just fails WP:V. Tigraan (talk) 09:54, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Pulsed energy projectile has it's own page and might make a good redirect target, however that page has issues of it's own. Artw (talk) 14:06, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm. Boeing considers feasibility of plasma-based weapons could be a source, however it's pretty speculative and it's author is Nick Cook, who later went on to write about how the US was basing it's defence research on captured Nazi UFO technology. Artw (talk) 14:30, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment by nominator (partly in answer to Andrew D.): the page plasma weapon (fiction) would need to be taken care of if this AfD ends up deleting plasma weapon, but it should bear no weight on the decision at hand. If Andrew D.'s point is that the page should be kept, but filled with entirely different content imported mostly from the "(fiction)" page, I think deletion and recreation is the cleanest way to do it, unless some guideline I ignore states otherwise.

H-bomb is only loosely related, as is every stuff from physics that involves plasma, as far as I can tell - as I wrote, everything that involves plasma is not a "plasma weapon". The plasma torch is not a weapon.

The "serious attempts" such as MARAUDER are the ones that could make it a real article, but I am not sure this was intended to be a weapon. The article does not claim so although it somewhat implies it, and the sources do not say so. I am ready to believe there has been funding into plasma weapons, but if such research failed to produce a working prototype, or that such information is unavailable because it is classified and nothing leaked, it does not seem to deserve an article.Tigraan (talk) 18:48, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced translation of his "Auslegung und Begründung der Thesen oder Artikel, " I don't think the current standards at Wikitext would permit it there, unless someone can find the source. DGG ( talk ) 05:45, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The website is the Christian History website [86] cited as the source in the article. It says this:
The Sixty—Seven Articles of Ulrich Zwingli;” from the Selected Works of Huldrich Zwingli (1484—1531), the Reformer of German Switzerland; translated for the First Time from the Originals, ed. Samuel Macauley Jackson (Philadelphia: University of Pennsylvania, 1901). Introduced and Edited by Dan Graves.
There are two editions of the translation by Samuel Macauley Jackson – the original 1901 edition and a 1972 edition, both from the University of Pennsylvania. In both the copyright to the text is 1901, so that part is public domain (copyright expired). But Dan Graves is an editor at the Christian History website, and I couldn't find a copyright release, so the status of his editing of the text is unclear.
Meanwhile, Wikisource apparently would prefer to have a scan of the 1901 text along with the data so that they can verify it. In some cases they will accept data from a source like Project Gutenberg. But it has to be public domain. Since the status of the contribution by Graves is unclear, it looks to me like it doesn't qualify. – Margin1522 (talk) 11:37, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nor can I see any conceivable reason to host this on Wikipedia. Apart from the original text, there's one sentence there. Better redirect to Huldrych Zwingli, expand it there, split it off if it becomes disproportionately large in relation to the rest of the article.

Can we really keep this unsourced list? Is it worth sourcing? List of potentially habitable exoplanets is an appropriate list article (though it is marked as needing updating) , but this is very different. DGG ( talk ) 05:12, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's not unsourced. If you go to: http://phl.upr.edu/projects/habitable-exoplanets-catalog/data and scroll down you'll see a simular table of this information. I agree it does need updating, but it can be useful for including unconfirmed planets so that we can create pages for them and when they get confirmed then move them onto the List of potentially habitable exoplanets.

Promotional article created by COI editor on non-notable, obscure Swedish person. Coretheapple (talk) 05:00, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Sorry, I got mixed up between the generations: there's an article about the actual founder of the company, Pehr Adolf Janson (or there was; not any longer, because I have just redirected it to Hästens) and there's also this article about Per Thure Janson, his descendant. Please delete Per Thure, it doesn't rate a redirect. Per Thure is only parenthetically mentioned in Hästens as being the father of "David" — wait, do we have an article about David? No. Can't think why not. These attempts to inflate the Hästens company into a family of articles are quite pathetic. (I've removed Per Thure from the Hästens article.)

Non-notable, only references are from cryptocurrency sites that does not pass WP:RS. ☃ Unicodesnowman (talk) 04:35, 19 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Just because you may not be interested in this cryptocurrency does not mean that it is not notable. This is unsubstantiated. Also I am very confident that just because some sources may be shaky that does not mean "that it will be impossible for the article to be attributed to reliable sources". Following this reasoning we should delete all the articles in [[91]]. "Publications in this part of the world tend to be also recited by the same part." Well I don't quite follow what you mean with this. What world are you talking about exactly? Obviously pages dealing with this subject are (highly) technical but that should be no reason to delete the article. Regarding circular referencing of wiki content on 3rd party sites as wiki sources, I did not find any. I am going to be bold and remove the deletion consideration and just put up a source banner. AlwaysUnite (talk) 00:47, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia has policies for inclusion, which you may read at WP:N. Part of that means coverage by reliable third party sources. Your comment that my claim is 'unsubstantiated' is strange, considering as it is not up to me to prove a negative. I've searched for reliable sources that cover this cryptocurrency, and have not found any. So what am I talking about? The fact that this topic has not received any coverage from any WP:RS, and hence should be deleted as it fails WP:GNG. Your removal of the AFD manner on the article isn't appropriate and I have re-added it. ☃ Unicodesnowman (talk) 04:35, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

While I don't have access to the deleted version to check if the content is exactly the same, this new article shows no signs of conquering the notability flaws that got it deleted in the previous Articles For Deletion discussion. Still sourced vastly to first-party references, other references are not indicators of notability. Nat Gertler (talk) 14:14, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Red Cross page is merely a page set up to create a branded fundraising effort to get money for the Red Cross. No indication of notability. The EMU page is a press release, which is not an indication of notability. The Better Business Bureau listing is a database. The iReach and PRWeb pages are press releases. The NCHC page is just a list of member institutions, and all that means is that they paid $600 dues. The "Dream Careers" and "Think Impact" pages are just the listing of a discount for club members. And as noted in the last deletion, the MBAcrunch page is an obscure blog that did nothing but promote HonorSociety.org that year.

The type of notability discussed is scarce in this segment category. Look at the references of Golden Key International Honour Society or National Society of Collegiate Scholars. Virtually all of their articles are directly firsthand onsite references. For that matter, look at any Honor Society wikipedia and you will see much less large-scale notability. The fact of the matter is that the organizations are in themselves notable by virtue of their scope, affiliations, and membership. They are not actively noted in third-party resources however, generally because they are not actively news-worthy. This organization is notable to its constituency and has active member base as can be seen by their 1 million followers on Facebook, or active YouTube and Instagram followers. While the page, and segment category in general needs improvement I think it is clear they all deserve a wikipedia entry to be expanded on by the community. Further, and further exacerbating the issue of notability, is that for borderline notable entities not having a Wikipedia page limits further notability by third party sources. It's not a clear cut solution, but the page has enough weight to stand on its on legs and be expanded on. Notability is enough currently IMO, but will be expanded and built upon by allowing a wikipedia article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.116.244.70 (talk) 04:06, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Facebook "like" counts are useless, as likes can be purchased. We have guidelines on notability of organizations at WP:NORG; this is failing them. I can understand that the organization wants to promote itself; I see no reason that Wikipedia should be party to that. If all we're doing is reconveying the information that's on their website, then this page is unneeded, as people can find the information they seek on their website. --Nat Gertler (talk) 04:30, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is not the place for discussing the notability of those subjects and their viability as Wikipedia articles. If you would like to see those deleted, you are free to nominate them for deletion. If your goal is to suggest that this article should not be deleted because those other have not yet been deleted, please realize that that is on our list of "arguments to avoid during deletion discussions", for reasons you'll see here. --Nat Gertler (talk) 05:05, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

As per WP:NORG: Organizations are usually notable if they meet both of the following standards: The scope of their activities is national or international in scale. The organization has received significant coverage in multiple reliable sources that are independent of the organization.

In terms of national or international scope, the organization has conferences in Washington DC, Chicago and Los Angeles this year. In terms of coverage by multiple sources, the article is sited by Eastern Michigan University (not a press release) and NCHC (national recognizing body for honors programs) and the American Red Cross (partnerships are vetted and notable).

Looking at these claims:
  • The EMU piece is indeed a press release. That's why its in the "news releases" section of their website, why it has contact information in the piece. Even the URL tells you that it's a release.
  • The NCHC listing is neither significant - all it is is a mentioning of the name - nor is it independent; HonorSociety.org appears to have paid $600 to be on that list.
  • The Red Cross page is not significant (all it says about the organization is that it's trying to raise money for the Red Cross), and it is far from independent - the page exists based on the belief that the group will funnel money to the Red Cross, and the page represents itself as actually being HonorSociety.org's website (referring to itself as "the HonorSociety.org website for the American Red Cross.")
So we' re still left looking for those sources that would indicate notability. --Nat Gertler (talk) 00:18, 1 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

More sources added, including United States Federally Registered Trademark of HonorSociety.org, and third-party neutral posts from Baruch College, and North Carolina Central University.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jevans24 (talkcontribs) 10:25, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

As noted on our general notability guidelines, "not all coverage in reliable sources constitutes evidence of notability for the purposes of article creation; for example, directories and databases, advertisements, announcements columns, and minor news stories are all examples of coverage that may not actually support notability when examined, despite their existence as reliable sources." The added references are:
  • Crunchbase - a user-edited database, and thus no indication of notability.
  • the trademark listing at Justia is also a database, and thus not an indication of notability
  • CollegeBudget - a partner with Honorsociety,org, as noted on the page, so not independent
  • Doctors Without Borders - another page just giving a place for members to give the source money, so not independent
  • The same six-sentence blog post on BaruchHonors and NCCU is about as insignificant as one can get - a teeny item aimed at a very local audience (the student bodies) denying school involvement with some emails.
So, no, no notability found yet. --Nat Gertler (talk) 15:02, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's very strict and narrow to say no notability. This page has more notability on it than virtually any honor society, and currently possesses the scope to be a valuable article. Instead of deleting the page, I would suggest adding the "Needs more sources" and "Written like an advertisement" tags and let the page stand. This will allow the community an opportunity to add neutral input, link to notable topics, and enhance the page. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jevans24 (talkcontribs) 12:51, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, yes, I'm sure you'd like to see us keep the ad page you put up for a group that - well, have you reviewed WP:COI to see if you have a conflict of interest regarding this page? But an honor society can have the sort of references that establish notability, like this honor society's article has this lengthy Wall Street Journal piece on the group as a source. That's quite a bit different than the sort of thing you've been pointing to. --Nat Gertler (talk) 03:37, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Do Not Delete - Does not fail all measures of WP:CORPDEPTH and provides enough neutral content to justify existence. Page can be improved, but should not be deleted. Pages had justifiable content and neutral sources, and more than virtually all articles in the honor society category. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.116.244.70 (talk) 11:49, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. I can't find consensus for deletion, but significant discussion arose around the fact Calculords may be more notable than Seanbaby himself, and a repurposing of the article to focus on the apparently notable game might be a solution (which can be discussed on the talk page since it is not deletion). ☺ · Salvidrim! ·  15:38, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable writer/personality; lacks significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources, failing WP:GNG / WP:AUTHOR / WP:ENT. Previous 2006 AFD is amusing to read- editors (really, fans) claimed notability due to his minor writing/TV appearances, not citing significant coverage or policy. -- Wikipedical (talk) 17:26, 26 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

His game Calculords seems to have quite a bit of coverage here, and isn't mentioned in the article. It should probably be expanded to include that using these refs. Artw (talk) 14:55, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Again, these sources seem to be significant coverage of the game, not its creator. Yes, there are questions/answers about himself, but it's still hardly enough coverage to merit an article, in my view.. -- Wikipedical (talk) 21:02, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
