Non-notable athlete, despite claims made. Part of a mass creation of Pezzin family/surname related articles by User:Dpezzin, as you can see here. Caution should be taken: the article creator appears to be moving content in and out of draft space to avoid deletion, or even from Draft to Draft talk. So there's no telling where the article may be by the time this Afd exists for a while. He's editing disruptively and I daresay deceptively and he's got two warning on his user talk page thus far.

Delete fails any notability criteria and seems to be self-promotion Adamtt9 (talk) 00:40, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - obvious COI; aside from that, when what he's known for is apparently only "his aggressive freestyle riding with his signature trick being the back flip tuck no-hander" and no other sign of notability is given, then it's probably a failure of WP:GNG. MereTechnicality⚙ 01:47, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete You have to be careful saying "back flip tuck no-hander"... That's no reason for deleting, but having it as a speciality isn't, to my mind, a reason for keeping. Nor is coming in at 51 in some competition a thing of any particular note as it stands. Being someone's grandson isn't of note either, unless the grandfather is/was a reigning monarch.

Yes, I thought this might happen. Dpezzin has created and has been steadily building Colorado Freeride Festival, apparently, at least in part, to make build a case for inherited notability for his relative. While the Colorado Freeride Festival does appear to be a notable event, merely participating in it would not mean that the cyclist in question meets WP:NCYCLING, far as I can see. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 22:14, 16 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There is precedent established for many other riders who competed in this event as well, for instance Barry_Nobles — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dpezzin (talk • contribs) 01:53, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You have established no "precedent" for your family member's notability. If other riders at this event are notable, it is not merely because they participated in this event. If they are not notable, their articles should be brought to Afd, as well. Notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:58, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Completely unsourced and unsourceable article about a purported musical genre. While it's certainly true that some elements of 1970s music have re-emerged as an influence on new music being made in the 21st century, there's no sourceable evidence that music critics treat that fact as a genre of music per se -- artists who do this are still classified as "pop" or "rock" or "alternative" or "indie" or "r&b" or "hip hop" or whatever, rather than as a distinct "70s revival" genre. And, in fact, the only reliable sourcing I can find for "70s revival" as a phrase is in the context of clothing trends rather than musical ones. Our role on here is not to invent musical genres by cherry picking anecdotal evidence that three or four musicians have had similar ideas — which is all that we've got here, as the entire proof of concept is the fact that Fountains of Wayne and Outkast have made songs that showed some 70s influences. Our job is to wait until the critics pin down a "genre", and follow their lead. Bearcat (talk) 23:45, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This is corporate advertising. It was kept at the first AfD on the basis of the promise of the admitted COI contributor to improve the article. There's been work on it since, but it's no better. It continued to promote the religious influences of the founder for the success of this quite small $40 million business. There has been some press attention, but it is on peripheral aspects, and the article presents it in a way that makes it advertising for the company, based on the stories of individual employees--the History section consists of the most trivial imaginable material. . Promotional articles that in practice cannot be improved should be deleted. I started a rewrite myself, but the promotional content is intertwined with the entire article in a way that makes it unimprovable. DGG ( talk ) 22:49, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - You beat me to the nomination. Ignoring the obvious COI, I can say this article has nothing by way of WP:CORPDEPTH and therefore fails WP:ORG. Declined speedy a shot time ago. --CNMall41 (talk) 22:43, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yep. I originally tagged it WP:A7 then found that it had been previosly tagged for speedy deletion but declined. -- Whpq (talk) 22:45, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Whpq: I am trying to WP:AGF, but this is one of many by the same creator. It appears they moved to draft space, only to move the article back to main space once they removed the speedy tag. --CNMall41 (talk) 22:52, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
He's actually been moving it in and out of draft space repeatedly in an effort to hide the article, it seems, from deletion. The banner tells us we have to take this Draft article to MFD, but if we do I daresay he'll move it back to article space. There are two warnings on his usertalk page and he's got a raft of Pezzin surname-related articles up for speedy deletion. When he tries and remove those tags, please revert and issue the necessary warnings and we can have him blocked. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 23:35, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's also frankly nuts because Dpezzin's disruptive edits here in an effort to preserve his spam articles on the Pezzin family and their firm are hardly the kind of online practices that engender trust. So if you're D Pezzin or one of his relations or are employed by Greenhouse Construction Services, you might want to take him aside and tell him to cut this out, for the sake of your own family's reputation.

Delete fails any notability guideline, and as mentioned above, seems to be one of the unnecessary article creations by D Pezzin Adamtt9 (talk) 01:55, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I did detag it at one point, after wondering why an admin had tagged a Draft as A7. A quick look in the history told me it had been moved from article space, which explained that. There has been a spate of Pezzin related articles, but I can see possible notability for John Pezzin, but that's only a single event thing. This one would have been deleted by me had it not been in Draft space. This is a firm that puts up greenhouses. Good for them. I could do with a new one myself, but I'll be looking on my side of the Atlantic as delivery costs would be a bit high from Colorado to the UK. Peridon (talk) 09:41, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Just to explain the speedy deletion thing, Dpezzin had discovered that while he couldn't remove speedy tags himself, he could get them removed by moving his walled garden articles on his family members and his company in and out of Draft space -- as well-meaning editors would follow guidelines and remove the speedy tags while it was in draft. That's the only reason why this speedy deletion was declined. Later on, that stopped working, as we recognized what was going on and started simply reverting such page moves as disruptive editing. And it's why he's been blocked for 24 hours. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:27, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -- Fails notability criteria for WP:ORG. @Peridon:, Yes, I figured that was what happened when I returned and found the tag had been removed. I had already speedy deleted several of their tagged articles and decided to tag the rest. But after I left, they moved them into Draft space, nullifying the CSD tags. Glad to see the block. I've dropped a personal note on their page to give them a chance to discuss the issues. — CactusWriter (talk) 16:35, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:TNT? As it stands this article is a massive pile of nonsense and speaking as a WP:PNT volunteer, no translator is likely to want to take it on. Starting from fresh translating would be much easier. Although there is a lot listed, a read through will show that the large majority of references are to rcstrasbourgalsace.fr, i.e. the team website, or fan pages--Jac16888Talk 01:06, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:TNT is an essay. WP:GNG trumps WP:TNT. Also, WP:TNT doesn't require deletion. Bold editing would suffice. Nfitz (talk) 01:11, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome to give it a try, I suspect you would retain little of the original content. Also upon further review of the references I am not convinced that GNG is met anyway, many seem to be primary sources or as Shawn says, about the club not the fans.--Jac16888Talk 01:23, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Some are primary, and some appear to be about the club, with only a brief mention of the fans. Though I just grabbed one to read more thoroughly, and it seems fine [1]. Besides, given what else exists at this level of play, do we really think that such a historic club wouldn't have their supporters achieve notability? Nfitz (talk) 01:28, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"No basis for deletion?" That's absurd. The editor Nfitz states on his user page that he has an elementary command of French, if so, surely he's capable of seeing that these references are about the club, not its fans. This is a blatant case of both TNT and WP:REDUNDANTFORK, to name but two. Delete. Absolute garbage.Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:09, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nfitz states he has an elementary command, that doesn't mean he could difference if the article is about the club or its supporters. I assure you, all sources are about supporters, not only the supporters, but the sources are reliable. "absolute gargabe" you should probably read the sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xaviyeah (talk • contribs) 15:41, 19 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No need to be rude. I see no basis for deletion in the nomination statement. They aren't arguments to delete ... they are arguments to edit; so go ahead and edit. Some of the references may be unnecessary; but I've checked some, and they do talk about the fans - there's more than enough to establish WP:GNG has been met - and really nothing else matters. Furthermore, I disagree about WP:REDUNDANTFORK - there's only a little overlap with the main article. Nfitz (talk) 01:16, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - per WP:TNT. Whether or not there should be an article on the subject, it will need be rewritten entirely, which means one way or the other the content that's currently needs to go. Sir Sputnik (talk) 05:00, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

please, France 3, France football, 20minutes.fr, TF1, are professionnal medias. If these sources can't be reliable, not a media could be in france. The debate is not about the sources, but should we keep and improve the article or delete it
Keep - instead of deleting it, edit it, and try to make it understandable. This article needs better translation, but the topic is interesting. Furthermore, sources are not only the official club website, but lots of French médias such as "France 3" - "France football" and "TF1". They do speak about the supporters, and how they are different than in other cities.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xaviyeah (talk • contribs) 21:39, 13 February 2017 (UTC) — Note to closing admin: Xaviyeah (talk • contribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this XfD. — Xaviyeah (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

"not sure how the supporters are notable separately" acually, this article does not mention current football players' opinion, but several International well known players and staff talk about this club, such as Kevin Gameiro in Spain, Morgan Schneiderlin, Arsene Wenger in England. This is not because you do not understand French that there is not "any useful material can be documented". Moreover, all sources are either independant or official communication. There must have 8 notable club supporters, no more, and Strasbourg is one of them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xaviyeah (talk • contribs) 16:38, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment/Possibly Merge - While this article is badly written and organized I'd like to remind some of the "delete" voters that Deletion is not cleanup. Still I am not so convinced that the article is notable, however I think it is very well sourced and the information contained in it could possible stand in a stand alone article or probably better be merged with the main club article.

An incident at Yale University that received apparently short-lived media coverage because of its political (in a broader sense) motivation. It seems that this is a subtopic of the dispute about the name of the (now to be renamed) Calhoun College, and is best covered in the context of that article. On its own, it has an air of WP:NOTNEWS / WP:1E to it. There's a merge proposal on the page, but with no discussion, so this proposal can perhaps help that along a bit.

Proposing a merger and re-direct of George W. Bush's first term as President of the United States and George W. Bush's second term as President of the United States to presidency of George W. Bush. No other (U.S.) presidency article is similarly divided into terms, and Wikipedia's encyclopedic coverage of Bush's presidency would benefit from having one comprehensive Bush presidency article organized by topic rather than chronologically. Including pictures, the three articles are a combined 220k bytes, which is comparable to the Obama presidency article, so excessive length is not a concern. Finally, all three articles need re-writing and re-organization anyway and merging the three articles into one article would be a boon to that effort, which I would at least begin.

As discussed on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Computational_Graph the very general definition of computational graph given here doesn't match the ones given in any of the sources. The author of this page seems to have created it to explore the concept as they and other people in this Hacker News here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13607634 see it. It is also described as a nascent field even though there's no evidence to suggest this, and plenty against (eg automata theory is ancient in Computer Science terms). In conclusion this article is inaccurate and misleading and I stand by the reasoning given in my original request for speedy deletion: the definition given here is something "just made up one day" in a Hacker News thread and then citations have been added retrospectively, rather than starting from a commonly accepted definition and working from that.

Delete Every combination of two words does not merit a Wikipedia article until it meets the notability guidelines, even if you can find one set of slides with it as a title. Certainly if it was, in fact, "nascent" then it would be WP:TOOSOON. But as above, it might also be talking about the general concept, in which case it would not have the second word capitalized.

The result was delete. Two things:
The English Wikipedia and the German Wikipedia have different ways of doing things. Here, canvassing is considered disruptive behavior and heavily discouraged. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
The issue here is notability. Reasonable minds can differ, but having weeded out the arguments that were blatantly not based on policy, the consensus of the participants (as opposed to the amount of words expressed) tilts heavily toward favoring deletion.

Delete most airfields/airports have some sort of rescue/fire training rigs/training aids/simulators/old aircraft none of which are notable enough for a stand-alone article or even a mention in the related airfield/airport article. MilborneOne (talk) 19:10, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This type of Trainings aids are not com~mon. It is the only training aid documented who is such an exact copy of the real aircraft and has at the same time such diverse trainingsfeatures.. It is much more than just a mocke-up who only look like the aircraft. Other Moke-ups look like the real thing but contain not such featers, trainingsaids with diverse features are just trainingsriggs who desent look like the real thing it can not be commpared with very basic and simple frirefighting traingsriggs. So such a unique one is notable.FFA P-16 (talk) 12:46, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No, you have to see that it is not just a look like of an aircraft and it is also not only a trainings rigg. you can finde trainingsrigg and you can finde mockeups on many military aerdromes, but not this combination of features.( And even if, then it would be worth to integrate this one on wikipedia).FFA P-16 (talk) 20:11, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No,you Steelpillow and Ahunt know it is not possibel to bring references that something in this topic not exist. But iff something simelar (and I talking from simelar features, not just a look-like or a rough training rigg.. I talking from a trainings Mocke-up who excaly look like the real Aircraft and contains diveres trainingsfeatures and simulationsprogramms who can be checked and steered by the instructor in real time. If this exist in on so many airfield you will find easy a lot to show here.This here is not just a basic fire fighting trainingsrigg it is a complex simulator for diveres situations, it contains features who are also not build into old aircrafthulls who are used fur emercency trainings. And at least, just if somethinge is so common like a firefighting truck on an airfild it is still wort to be on wikipedia.. wikipeda is not only for extraodonarythings. even this F/A-18C Mocke-up page is online just a few days i has had a good bunch of visitors.FFA P-16 (talk) 16:48, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NOTABILITY and WP:RELIABLE are very clear. If there are no reliable sources then it does not belong on Wikipedia. Neither Ahunt nor I nor you can change that: each time one of us edits Wikipedia we agree to its terms of use. Now that you have admitted there are no good sources to be found, there is nothing more to be said here. If you wish to write about things outside Wikipedia's policies, there are plenty more web sites out there for you to use, that may well be your best option. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 19:07, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. But in an articel about the F/A-18C Mocke-up have to be sources about the F/A-18C Mock-up (and they are all in the Aricel) and not sources about non existing Mock-ups with simear features. How should it be possibel to bring a referenc about something who did not exist? It is the other way much easier, if something simelar exist it could be proven witout a problem. And we have here on wikipedia a lot of articels about vehicels who where build in just one or two examples, just because such Mock-ups are less known or usualy not in the focus by the friends of aviation makes them not somthine who readers of wikipeda should not knew about. The Article fit perfect to the therms of wiikipedia because in german wikipedia it is even more detailed.FFA P-16 (talk) 19:23, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
What??? Nobody is asking for sources about insignificant mock-ups. The burden is on you to show that this one is notable. None that you have cited are reliable sources to its notability. The German article you mention is little different, even down to the sources cited. Maybe that needs deleting as well. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 19:40, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There are plenty of reliable references and external links in the articel already who show that it is notable. What is the problem with them? We have something from 20 Minuten , Blickand Tagesanzeiger. Thes some of the biggest newspaper and online news of switzerland, we have the aviatic Magazin of switzerland& Austria Cockpit, we hav a official Air force webpage about it, we have a branch report about the manufacturer in a non-aviatic branch magazin, we have a printet Magazin as referenc.. just to name a few all in this articel.. so much and it is not enough?

Aha! I found them in the wrong place, under "external links", no wonder we all missed them. It just needs tidying up. Yes, there seems to be enough independent commentary to establish notability after all, so I am changing my vote accordingly. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 20:57, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
They do prove it exists but it really isnt notable even in the simulation world. MilborneOne (talk) 15:36, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NOTABILITY requires only that something be adequately commented on in RS, it does not require professional endorsement (for example whether the subject is "unique" or "complex" is not relevant). A good few specialist journals have carried articles and news reports on this subject, i.e. it "has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", which is the core of WP:GNG. Sources which I have so far checked to confirm they carry non-trivial content include Cockpit, Seilbahnen International, AirOnline.nl and the Swiss Department of Defense web site. How many more do you want to be verified before you will accept it? — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 16:21, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, failing a reason why why die Berne Zeitung or Blick should not be considered reliable sources for notability. (For those who cannot read German, "Nachbildung" = "replica" in the first article, "Denn es ist aus Holz" = "because it is made of wood" in the second, so it is indeed about the replica and not the original aircraft.)

Keep while the sockpuppetry issue needs to be explored, I'm satisfied it meets GNG. The Berne Zeitung and Blick articles mentioned above would constitute significant coverage as does this, to cite a third. We do have articles on Category:Individual aircraft, indeed, all kinds of Category:Individual physical objects. There's no reason that mockups can't be notable if they get sufficient coverage -- which this has, if perhaps barely. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:44, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Those three are nowhere near being "significant coverage", they are sets of photos with a bit of text serving as captions. The significant coverage is not independent, being from the Swiss military and a press release and brochure from the manufacturer; the independent coverage, while reliable, is not significant. Much of the material in the article is unreferenced and most likely pulled out of the creator's head as original research (for which he has a long track record) and it is all dressed up to appear greater than the sum of its parts. So for the record, my !vote is to delete. YSSYguy (talk) 02:08, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You are wrong. Seilbahn international and Cockpit are Independent and reliable sources providing enough detailed informations. Blick, 20Miunten Tagesanzeiger Prove the great public perception (this are the biggest newspapers in Switzerland and the two biggest newsportals in Switzerland. Also the berner Zeitung [5] is an and reliable sources providing enough detailed informations. We have here a good mix of first hand informations from the air Force and from the manufacturer as well as enough independent ones online.. and don't forget the printet ones, first hand and independent, like Schweizer Luftwaffe Jahrespublikation 2017 Die "Manipulier"- Hornet (S.60 - 63.) AeroRevue, 7/8 2016, Page 8. al of them bring in also enough details who are needed.FFA P-16 (talk) 06:12, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I don't hold much store by the "look at the big thing in the road" trivia, no matter who publishes it. But the article also cites some much stronger sources, which I and FFA P-16 have both pointed out above here and which do constitute "significant coverage". Unfortunately, although the Cockpitdownload page] links to the cited issue, the download link appears to have failed since I read it a couple of days ago and I did not keep a copy.

"Not significant coverage" does not logically follows from sets of photos with a bit of text serving as captions - I would consider e.g. that making the cover of National Geographic (magazine) constitutes significant coverage even in the absence of accompanying text. Moreover, even if it could be argued against the Blick and Tagesanzeiger pieces (I have seen worse pass at AfD, but a reversal would please me), that is not the case of the Berne Zeitung one. TigraanClick here to contact me 08:48, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, YSSYguy makes a valid point about routine coverage, or as Steelpillow calls it, '"look at the big thing in the road" trivia' -- strikethrough my !vote. Change to neutral. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:00, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If this was about something that appeared on the cover of National Geographic I would say "keep" myself. But it didn't. The coverage is confined to Switzerland, it is local coverage, not widespread. The independent coverage is of a similar level to that generated in Australia when the RAAF's General Dynamics F-111s were retired and some were trucked to museums around the country, or when a de Havilland Canada DHC-4 Caribou was moved by truck to a museum. The coverage amounts to less than what would appear in Australian media when a child drowns in a backyard swimming pool, or when there is a fatal car crash; and is a lot less than what would appear in Australian media after a fatal light aircraft crash - none of these would generate an article and nobody would think that they should. So why should something that has generated no attention outside Switzerland have a Wikipedia article in English about it, especially when there was a debate over whether the article should exist in one of Switzerland's official languages? Why should the Swiss military be covered in more detail than just about any other country's military forces, several of whom have similar mockups and training devices? YSSYguy (talk) 01:52, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You really don't get it., if you compare this with a retired F-111. it is something differend. So you wan't to bann swiss topics from English Wikipedia,or how should we understand this' Wikipedia is not limited to countrys or language. I told you a few times already.. the English language Wikipedia is used by many readers too look up something who is not covered in the wiki of their language. (lets say a Russian friend who doesn't understand german wan't to knew about this F/A-18c Mock-up, will read it here because he don't understand german and in the Russian Wikipedia is nothing about it)."Why should the Swiss military be covered in more detail than just about any other country's military forces" is the wrong argument. If there are less informations about other military forces we don't have to restrict the informations about the swiss military... more all wikipedians should be encouraged to let grow the informations about other country's military forces. But you can not burden this on my shoulders to build up more infos about other country's military forces. And no there is no indication that other military forces have similar mockups, like we said here also a few times it is very complex system that has nothing to do with those old planes or mock-ups that certain airports use to train their firefighters. And just for the record the Discussion about it in de Wikipedia was started by a few anonym IP's. the main discussion was not if its notable or not, the main-discussion was what title/name it should have. It unfortunately makes the appearance that you not are against the article because the content, but because it is from me.FFA P-16 (talk) 06:38, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Your continuing claims of prejudice against Swiss topics and (elsewhere) "rassistic" - although I fail to see how a person of European descent can be racist against a European person - when people question 'your' articles are getting very tiresome, and you have misunderstood what I wrote. I am not comparing the mockup to an F-111 museum aircraft, I am comparing the coverage the moving of the F-111s by road received to the coverage the moving of the mockup by road received. At no time have I made any comparison of firefighting training aids to this mockup either, I am comparing this mockup to technical training aids, cockpit procedures trainers, engineering mockups etc., which are very commonplace. Why would anyone from Russia or Japan or wherever search for information about this mockup? Nobody outside Switzerland knows it even exists, because there has been no coverage outside Switzerland. I am not making any judgments of this article based on you being its creator or of its quality - you will notice that I have not entered the debate over the Air14 article you created, even though its quality is just as bad as the one we are discussing here; you know why? Because your bad English is not a reason to delete an article you created and can be fixed by other editors. My assessment of this article is based purely on the notability of the subject, which the subject does not possess. YSSYguy (talk) 07:27, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You have wanted to limit the informations about the swiss military in English Wikipedia just in your comment above. I do not comment the other things now because we should stay straight to this why this article is to keep. Like you said bad English can be fixed by other editors. Therefore I would like to say thank you Steelpillow,Shawn in Montreal and Petebutt for your work. That it is notable is well documented how often have we to tell you it? Jahrespublikation der Luftwaffe, who everyone can buy at the newsstand or order. The 2 biggest online news portals of Switzerland the biggest printet newspapers in Switzerland. Seilbahnen International, AeroRevue and Cockpit are not limited to Switzerland only they are also available in Austria, Germany, Lichtenstein. This 100% prof that it is notable. Why would anyone from Russia or wherever search for information about this mockup' well because there are a lot of people outside of Switzerland who are interested in swiss military stuff, history equipment and so one. I have friends in Russia, Hungary, Italy and so one who doesn't speak german but are interested in such things. I am swiss but I am also interested in Russian airplanes and military equipment. in the Tankmuseum in Kubinka everything was written only in Russian not in English or german, so I used the English wikipeda to get some infos. Also you forgot that the F/A-18C Mock-up was shown to many vistors (also a lot of foreigen vistors (even guests from the USA) at the 75 years Meiringen Air Force Base show. Wikipedia is not limited to a language or anation, it is not a reason for deletion if the article is about something who is just part of a nation who has not English as it official language. And foreigen people noticed it :UK& NL .FFA P-16 (talk) 08:48, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Shawn in Montreal: When you reconsidered your vote, did you also take into account the more significant coverage in RS that I had mentioned earlier, before my "big thing" remark? — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 09:30, 8 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Just for information: there was in de:wp in August 2016 a longer discussion about this topic ([7]). Determinend by administrative decision to keep. I know, this is not binding for other wiki-language-versions. Some arguments to delete the article in en:wp are similar, also some pro-arguments. I think, there are still some strong arguments to keep this article also in en:wp:
media coverage was/is given and referenced
originality issues of this mock-up are mentioned/described and 2nd-party referenced in the article
...and, as I understand the AfD-rules in en:wp correct, there is no reason stated to delete an article lack of "bad english" or "insufficient references". It is - in my opinion - more a question of quality-improvement (i.e. language, grammar a.s.o.) - and not deleting articles as "first action". (sorry for my clumsy english) --M1712 (talk) 09:43, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As you said, de-wp conclusions are not binding here. In that particular case, while I did not read the whole thing (my reading speed in German is 1/4 of that in English, at best, and that was a wall of text), I see no discussion whatsoever of the sources (which is the point of contention here at en-wp); most of the posts are either back-and-forth abuse or a debate between "it's useful, only deletionists would want to delete it" vs. "it's a mess, so it should go".
Moreover, and on a more formal point, MBurch and FFA-P16 commented on that discussion; I would object to a "double-counting" of their arguments (not implying it is the intent here). TigraanClick here to contact me 17:22, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to an appropriate article, e.g. List of aircraft of the Swiss Air Force. I was prepared to close this as "delete", but... well. The various argument-less "keep" votes can be safely ignored. The issue is whether there is sufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG. The local news coverage of "oh look, cool, big thing moving on the highway" is so superficial that it can't be used as a basis for notability. The manufacturer's and the air force's material is not independent. But, surprisingly, there are two in-depth articles in trade journals about this specific mockup: Seilbahnen International p. 106 and Cockpit, p. 16. That's technically enough for an article, but the reality is that this individual piece of training equipment is such an insignificant part of the whole topic of the Swiss Air Force that to dedicate a whole article to it must look quite silly to readers, particularly when we don't even have an article about the service of the real F-/A 18 with the Swiss Air Force, about which there would be much more important things to relate (various crashes, procurement issues, politics, etc.) It should therefore be mentioned in an amount of detail proportionate to its significance in another article. (Conflict of interest notice: I have served as an officer in the Swiss armed forces.) Sandstein 08:03, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
As info about the situation who led to this (soon two) F/A-18C Mock-up. The Swiss Air Force purchased 34 F/A-18, first it was planned to buy a second batch of 34 F/A-18, but this was never done. Also the idea to buy 12 F/A-18 more to replace the 12 Mirage IIIRS was not made. So the Swiss air Force was using 34 F/A-18 without having a QRA. The Swiss Air Force lost 4 F/A-18.. from the remaing 30 F/A-18 a minimum of 2 F/A-18 are since 2016 reserved for the QRA. So the F/A-18C Mock-up is an important tool part to ensuring the F/A-18 fleets readiness. Just because certain topics (for eg. Crash) are not (yet) listed in articles about the Swiss Air Force is no reason to prevent this article. No, every "keep" and every "delet" count.. some of the delet also have no substantiated reasons. so we should not change the rules for the Vote Counter. The BAZ [8] Is also a good independent source. FFA P-16 (talk) 08:36, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You have again not understand (or more you are not willing to understands it) The fleet readiness is just one point, and an answer to the question why this F/A-18C-Mock-up is as article in Wikipedia and we don't have a list of all air crashes of the swiss air force. No it is definitive not the same as a common firefighting trainingsrigg, also it is not just a nonfunctional Mock-up, all the things you count here are not the same. No there is no such a complex Mock-up in service by USAF, the RAF, the RAAF, the Armée de l'air, the JASDF or other air arms. If there is one we can bring it to Wikipedia too, but this doesn't necessitate the deletion of this article. Again you are starting to agitate against Swiss Military topics, there is no limitation on Wikipedia about vehicels from one countrys orgine. If there are a few from Switzerland, everyone in the whole world can write about others from other nations. It is not important for Wikipedia if something is build in 10,000 copies or just 1 or even never was build Rockwell X-30. The sentence with a pen shows that it is not at all about the content, but you want to delete the article only because it is from me. BTW:Pen is also on wikipedia.FFA P-16 (talk) 06:31, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep F/A-18C Mock-up in my opinion is an interesting object and I ask not do delete. -- Spurzem (talk) 09:50, 11 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Yes it is interesting, but being interesting does not make it notable. A steel training aid was manufactured for Sydney Airport; it replicated part of the fuselage and left wing of an Airbus A380 and was on a wheeled trolley. It would be towed into position at a gate at the international terminal that had two aerobridges to handle an A380, to allow people working at the terminal to practice docking aerobridges to the lower and upper decks. That was also interesting and that was also an important tool for the airport's readiness to bring the A380 into service. YSSYguy (talk) 01:36, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That it is notable is already proved, how many times we have to tell you .[9], Cockpit, May 2013, Page 16.[10], Seilbahnen International 3 June 2013, pp. 106–7.[11] and so one? Like you say the "A380" you talk about is only part of the fuselage and left wing. we but we talk her about an full Mock-up with diffrend configurations and and a wide rang of functions. Also you are absolutely free to write about this "A380" on Wikipedia. I don't see any reason why you have to jump on everyone who vote keep. FFA P-16 (talk) 06:40, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I am not free to write about the A380 training aid on Wikipedia, it isn't notable.

You are free to write about the A380 training aid, if you think it isn't notable it is your decision, I never had , have and will put any stones in your way if you write an articel. If you an article about the A380 training aid would be not notable, it does not mean automatically that this is here the case too. Well you wrote it above, you criticzie that there are to much articels about swiss military topics. And this is not the first time you do this.FFA P-16 (talk) 16:18, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So this is a training aid that is an important tool to aid in the fleet's readiness. How is that any different to all of the mockups, flight simulators, technical procedures trainers, maintenance training fixtures, computer-based training modules and other training aids used by the USAF, the RAF, the RAAF, the Armée de l'air, the JASDF or other air arms or the world's airlines or the world's airports or by any company anywhere in the world that uses training aids...the pen I have in my pocket when I am at work is an important tool, I use it to sign paperwork to ensure the readiness of aircraft for service. Again and again you argue that somewhow everything related to the Swiss military is special. There are five articles on Wikipedia about specific aircraft tugs; two of them are about Swiss Air Force aircraft tugs. Wikipedia has six articles dealing with one Swiss tank and its various conversions for anti-aircraft, vehicle recovery, bridging etc. with a total production of 390 units; because according to you it has equal weight in the world as the M48 Patton with a production total of more than ten thousand and about which many books have been written. This not a vote count, so no, opinions with no reasons given do not actually matter. YSSYguy (talk) 01:36, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So because you moved your commend I answer it here again::*You have again not understand (or more you are not willing to understands it) The fleet readiness is just one point, and an answer to the question why this F/A-18C-Mock-up is as article in Wikipedia and we don't have a list of all air crashes of the swiss air force. No it is definitive not the same as a common firefighting trainingsrigg, also it is not just a nonfunctional Mock-up, all the things you count here are not the same. No there is no such a complex Mock-up in service by USAF, the RAF, the RAAF, the Armée de l'air, the JASDF or other air arms. If there is one we can bring it to Wikipedia too, but this doesn't necessitate the deletion of this article. Again you are starting to agitate against Swiss Military topics, there is no limitation on Wikipedia about vehicels from one countrys orgine. If there are a few from Switzerland, everyone in the whole world can write about others from other nations. It is not important for Wikipedia if something is build in 10,000 copies or just 1 or even never was build Rockwell X-30. The sentence with a pen shows that it is not at all about the content, but you want to delete the article only because it is from me. BTW:Pen is also on wikipedia.FFA P-16 (talk) 16:21, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Some information from Switzerland:
The team in the sockpuppet-discussion has an tendency of using rules as a weapon against others – and forget them if it suits them fine.
So there ist one thing to say about „coverage”. Firstly I don’t know if you understand Leserreporter as there is no corresponding article on enWiki. Leserreporter is mostly or only photos being sent to the press and them writing a few sentences. (user generated content) This is the case here for Tagesanzeiger, Blick and 20Minuten.
Now listen to MBurch additionally (never mind the difference- they have both spoken as "us" before of each other (just read all the links in the sockpuppet investigation):
"20 Minuten als Boulevardzeitung schon mal entfernt, völlig ungeeignet für eine Enzyklopädie --MBurch (Diskussion) 04:17, 30. Aug. 2014 (CEST)" (not suitable)
irony; "damit die internationale Medienpräsenz noch ein wenig grösser wird, muss jetzt auch noch das topseriöse 20 Minuten herhalten? Löschen! --MBurch (Diskussion) 22:35, 26. Aug" (reason for deletion)
How about Blick:
"Blick als Quelle für eine Enzyklopädie geht gar nicht. MBurch (Diskussion) 17:49, 11. Apr. 2015 (CEST)" (not suitable)
"… muss durch eine andere Quelle als den Blick belegt werden. --MBurch (Diskussion) 19:21, 11. Apr. 2015 (CEST)" (not suitable)
"und das ohne Blick als Quelle MBurch (Diskussion) 07:03, 21. Jul. 2015 (CEST)" (not suitable)
"Blick als Quelle entfernt (Boulevardmedium als Quellen geht gar nicht), MBurch (Diskussion) 06:50, 3. Aug. 2015 (CEST)"(not suitable, not discussion but removed content)
Within Switzerland remains therefore
Berner Zeitung (not really national) (article on invitation of the manufacturer but for me perfectly ok as regional news)
Cockpit national range for specific audience
Seilbahn national but specific range
So please erase all rerferences except Berner Zeitung, simagazin.com and Cockpit, as all the rest does not cover the subject as a subject. These three may remain with the Swiss Army communication.
(not to mention the striking dutch webpage which is listed under „Bibliography")
Btw: Regarding this a votation, FFA is collecting users on deWP, eg spurzem.
No worry, I won't do the same.
You decide yourself if you like the article. But if it comes to the "significant coverage" – you may have to forget it especially if you look for "sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time" as it says....--2A02:1206:45A8:BC00:69CE:EB50:3352:79A8 (talk) 13:16, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To establish notability of the subject, reliable sources do not need to cover the subject as a subject, they merely needs to comprise a significant body of content on the subject. The sources you list are not the only ones which do that. Then, other sources with less information may also be cited for additional information about a subject that is already notable. These also should not be deleted. Perhaps other language wikis do it differently, but this is what the English wikipedia does. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 13:38, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Fernrohr /Cronista IP, Sorry but 20Minutes and Blick are may not the best references but they are still good. And even without it, it does not matter if the Berner Zeitung is not a National or international Newspaper. With Seilbahn International and Cockpit we have it on the safe side. Even "first Hand" infos are regarded on englishwikipedia as notthe best sources, they are still usefull for the technical details.. and we have seen that it is also niticed outside switzerland.

Do we really need any more "substantive debate"? The issue appears to hinge on whether the cited sources demonstrate notability, and I don't see anything new to be said there unless new sources are found. Personally, I'd suggest that a "no consensus" closure would be acceptable by now.

It can be changed so that it is no more a standing alone article, it can be linked with the Swiss Air Force page, the Inventorypage of the Swiss Air Force, and (Because of the X-5098) with the Payerne AFB.

Read also FFA P-16's first of this even repeaded request with his explanation there about "deletion fanatics" and the "two types" that he claims "give him a hard time".

@2A02:1206:45A8:BC00:59C7:2F41:438D:9C80 it is well known that Fernrohr is using differend Ip's and is hunting me and MBurch. from time to time he start todo a few usefull edits. This debat here is not about the Air14. But to get it clear I haven't changed it tomid-2014 this was a other user, and only September is also not right..it was august&September. Also even if you and the Banner don't like it Blick is one of the two importantest newsportals in Switzerland (and now I add 2 other interpendend refs). So lets Stay to the F/A-18C Mock-up.

Comment. Here is another source: Thomas Feuz; "Die Flugzeugbauer aus Seftigen" (The aircraft maker from Seftigen), Gantrichspost, Herbst 2016, p.13.[16].

Highly promotional resume-style article. Sure, he gets a few mentions in the paper, but that's to be expected given his position. The position, as far as I know, in no way guarantees inherent nobility on Wikipedia, and I see no reason to accept that this particular is notable via the GNG or otherwise; all the coverage is just about a man doing his job, no in-depth discussion that makes him notable. Drmies (talk) 17:31, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I just noticed that this had been nominated before; I am not at all convinced that the coverage brought up there makes him notable. Being interviewed in a documentary is not in-depth discussion though it may point at some kind of notability--and being appointed to an advisory committee is, I'm sorry to say, not as special as one might think. I note also that (in response to NinjaRobotPirate) yes, the Baltimore Sun is a good paper of national standing, but not of national distribution, and that the coverage of Dance in that paper is of the regional kind. (Lots of folks get recognized by the president; it takes national coverage to really make that newsworthy.) Same with links posted there by Jreferee: I see three links to newspaper articles, and those are all papers from the area--in other words, it's routine coverage, as is suggested in comments by John from Idegon, Onel5969, RoySmith, Cullen328 (I think I pinged everyone from the first AfD). Oh, and I know there was a tweet last year that generated some minor coverage, but that also doesn't convince me. Everyone tweets, and retweets, and gets criticized, and on and on.

Keep Several sources have been found, there is a reason the first discussion ended in a keep. The person has been personally appointed by Barack Obama. For reference here are Jreferee's references that he provided from the previous AfD, which was closed as keep.
Delete - fails GNG and NPOL. And yes he's a politician, not being an elected politician doesn't mean he's not a politician. Not a single source provided above speaks to notability except perhaps the Sun. The Sun is local, ITSE is not independent, no indication districtadministration is a reliable source (trade association publications generally aren't), the thing from highbeam is a press release. Can't make any analysis of the Richmond paper reference, but I do not see any discussion in detail in reliable sources totally independent of the subject that is needed here. And the contention that being mentioned by the President equates to inherent notability is laughable. John from Idegon (talk) 23:19, 3 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment:@John from Idegon: I would like to just mention here that Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia and not a place for asserting your views as absolutes unless you provide merit for those views. For example, you have enthusiastically engaged Catcher with saying “And the contention that being mentioned by the President equates to inherent notability is laughable.” To who is it laughable and do you have consensus for this notion? You have then gone onto attacking Catcher by saying “And I'd also add that the same user voting twice using different signatures, coupled with all the sock votes screams WP:PAID” this is a serious accusation and should at the least be merited in the behaviour of the person who you are attacking with it. It might be worth remembering that Wikipedia is a place with many different views and just because others might not share your own it does not give you leave to start going out of your way to invalidate the opinion of others. This type of carry-on leads inevitably, as proven here, to one making rash and non-objective decisions based on dogma rather than actual facts. Wiki-CoffeeTalk 11:51, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
John from Idegon, you are gravely mistaken. The second vote you are referring to with the two different signatures was from a quote that WikiCoffee used. WikiCoffee quoted my previous comment from the first nomination when I had a different signature. I think that having been here for three years I would know the rules of ASD. I did not vote using two different signatures. Please look back at what I am referring to, for I do not wish to have false action taken against me.

Jacona I guess we have different ideas of what significant coverage is. To me it's beyond a couple sentences in an article with multiple personalities and paragraphs.

Delete All - All three are extremely minor fictional characters. As said above, Zak is the only one that can even come close to making any claim of notability, but even he fails to gather any reliable sources. The sources brought up when doing the searches for the characters are only one to two sentence mentions that are only in the context of plot summary, which makes theme extremely trivial and not suitable for establishing notability. 64.183.45.226 (talk) 17:35, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I note that the above three delete !votes 1) Fail to address the non-trivial independent, reliable sourcing I identified earlier in the AfD, 2) fail to address why a merge or redirect are not appropriate options per WP:ATD. In TTN's case, this is clearly a willfully disruptive action, as he knows full well how merges of not independently notable content works, since he's done it himself in other franchises. I'll further note that the nominator is, and remains, a WP:SPA with no edits other than to try and delete, trim, or merge Battlestar Galactica content in the past month. Jclemens (talk) 08:50, 23 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You're not TTN, so I'm not calling your actions willfully disruptive: you're either a clueless newbie SPA or a sockpuppet behaving like a clueless newbie SPA. "Minor" is unimportant; many minor things can be notable, as all of these characters appear to be to me. Please explain the GNG to me and how it applies to fictional characters: Not that I need to know it, but you really ought to be able to articulate it before you go around trying to 'improve' Wikipedia by deleting others' content.

While an article could be written on the dynamics of bouncing ball (I actually intended to start a draft on this), this article really is about the super specific case of ball bouncing on a sinusoidally driven table, and it's more or less highjacking the legitimate article. All the publications come from Tufillaro and affiliates, and I suspect this article was written by one of them. So basically I'm invoking WP:PROMO/WP:OR and WP:TNT on this. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 14:17, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'd appreciate it if you didn't speculate on my motives and assumed bad faith from the outset. If you feel this is notable, fine, but as far as the topic of bouncing ball dynamics go, this article doesn't cover it.

There are already comprehensive lists at Railway accidents in Victoria, Railway accidents in New South Wales, and so on for each Australian state. This article is unsourced, does not make any claim to its own notability, and is essentially a badly organised formatted duplication of existing content. Triptothecottage (talk) 11:09, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but rename and prune down to a short list. Since comprehensive articles exist for each state, there should be a list article for Australia as a whole that readers can use for navigation. Either Railway accidents in Australia or List of railway accidents in Australia sounds like a logical choice for me. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 00:59, 6 February 2017 (UTC) P.S. I have formatted the list that was provided at the start of the article (and added Queensland). My idea is that everything that follows the list of links should be deleted. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 01:03, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Move Keep and rename. List of / Railway accidents in Australia is a useful and likely search term. List of list articles do not necessarily need references and GNG is not relevant. Could also still have a summary still to the worst accidents. 23:31, 6 February 2017 Aoziwe (talk) 02:37, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I like this idea. Once the discussion is closed I'll prune the list to the worst 5-10 and move to an appropriate page. Triptothecottage (talk) 01:57, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Trust me, "worst 5-10" is not a good idea. You then need to decide how bad something must be to be in the list. Maintenance will be required as people try to add other events to the list. It is unnecessary trouble. So a simple list that provides links to the state lists is sufficient. AtHomeIn神戸 (talk) 04:54, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Move and rename as the current title and content fails WP:LISTCRITERIA due to the subjective nature of "worst" in the selection criteria.

Keep PROD was removed by creator AFTER NorthBySouthBaranof said on my talk page that I could. Also, this is NOT an autobiography. I am a relative, not him. The complaining editor is failing to realize the historic plight that David Strausser had to take for civil rights in Mexico, becoming the FIRST WHITE, non-latino, non-hispanic Binational Adviser to the Mexican Government allowed to represent the country to the press, both foreign and national. This is huge in a country like Mexico that is primarily one raze and ethnicity and was extremely rare and a huge accomplishment for the furthering of minority rights in Mexico. This article is short and well cited and ads to the value of Wikipedia. Dstrausser83 (talk) 07:12, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The user has the same first initial and last name as the article subject, the numbers "83" in their username correspond to the stated birthdate of the article subject and on their user talk page, they stated that they were a student at Penn State University, the article subject's stated alma mater. I didn't just fall off a turnip truck. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 07:37, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The keyboard activist does not realize that "D" can represent various names and are used for more than just David. Being as we are both from Pennsylvania and family, would it be possible, that we both went to the same University? Can you wrap your head around that before falling off the turnip truck? We are not talking about a small local school, but a top notch, world known University that many people attend, especially from the same FAMILY. That being said, again, I am a relative, with the initials of "D.S.". The 83 in my name is from the year I was born, as in 1983. My name? Believe it or not, it is Daniel. That means my full name is Daniel Strausser and I have followed my cousin throughout his career and I have been a center piece in motivating him and pushing him to reach places I have not because of my disability and he has taken me as his wing man along his plight. I will also tell you, there are 9 David Strausser (including my Uncle, his father), in fact, do a Google Search and you will find TWO different David Straussers from Pennsylvania that were born in May 1983. There are also 4 Daniel Straussers. Since you want to know so much about our family tree, would you also care for a copy of my identification? I will gladly send you that for all to see as long as I would get an apology after I send it for the false accusations. Also, instead of worrying who I am, how about you focus on the merit of the article and the historic achievements that were completed? That is what this is supposed to be about, right? Or did Wikipedia just loathe down to personal attacks and since you do not like somebody you are going to nominate it for deletion even after you were engaged for discussion about it to resolve any issues? David Strausser is a current civil rights and equality leader in Mexico that achieved the highest ranks of a non-Mexican, non-Latino in government and the founder of a ground-breaking charity that has won awards and is quite well known in Latin America and the tech world, I must ask you, besides your dislike for my cousin, is there any other reason he does not qualify? There are a ton of articles of civil rights leaders that have done what he has done or less and they all have their respective page. Please, instead of your personal attacks, please ask discuss the merit of the article and the accomplishments and references showing such. Dstrausser83 (talk) 08:02, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable musician only famous for one event. She didn't qualify any further in Melodifestivalen and placed at the bottom of the scoreboard. Creating articles for every single contestant is absurd, and should be reserved for only the ones who're successful/have chart success with their songs. The article is weak as well as pretty much the only information there is about her has to do with Melodifestivalen. In the coming weeks, if Krasniqi experiences chart success with her song, then I'd say to recreate it, but for now I'd redirect to Melodifestivalen 2017. { [ ( jjj1238 ) ] } 15:10, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - per WP:MUSIC second paragraph her music single has charted in the main Swedish chart. And it is sourced. Has particiated in Melodifestivalen. Has released previous music. Article has good third party sources. She signed with one of the worlds largest record labels well before participating in Melodifestivalen so obviously not only known for the festival, she also passes Paragraph 12 of WP:MUSIC --BabbaQ (talk) 15:48, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Melodifestivalen 2017 is a sensible solution. Article as it currently stands does not have good, third party sources. Both sources are from SVT, and they are the sort of short articles any national TV broadcaster writes on song contest participants. Searching for sources I do not find anything that makes subject meet WP:BASIC. She is signed to Universal, but she has not yet released an album, and is not yet notable under any criterion in WP:MUSICBIO. No objections to a rewrite if and when her career takes off. — SamSailor 00:14, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

When a song enters a chart it peaks as Ss112 writes in his edit summaries. In week 1, it can peak again if it places even higher in week 2. But that is simply an expression. The main point being, she has music that has entered her countries main Chart list. She passes both paragraph 2 and 12 of WP:MUSIC. --BabbaQ (talk) 22:47, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep - It looks like a book with multiple independent reliable source reviews. Smmurphy(Talk) 20:26, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The article was and still is a stub, but stubs for notable works can always be expanded. The only time I'd argue that a work shouldn't have its own entry is if the work is already well covered in the creator's article (as in the case of biographies or authors known for only one work where the work and author haven't been the subject of a lot of coverage outside of each other) or in another suitable location. (IE, in the case of derivative works where it's substantially identical to the main work and wouldn't justify a content fork, as in the case where a coloring book edition is put out of a children's book) In this case the article can be expanded and I've gotten a little bit of it started.

Comment from nominator: on reflection, it might be better turning it into a redirect to Kent State shootings. Canfora still occasionally turns up in news articles about the shootings (as can be seen by clicking "news" above).

Redirect (nominator). Canfora is in quite a few mainstream news items on the shooting, e.g. USA Today, Huffington Post, New York Times, BBC. As I said above, my assessment is he's not independently notable (and there's almost nothing to say about him except in relation to the shootings), but he seems to do a lot of work commemorating the event. e.g. this book [48] says, "Alan Canfora was the most active of the survivors of the Kent State shootings".

Yes, it's a mess. Even searching without the odd suffix yields little. And there is apparently no German name to search for: locating the official website -- which is not in fact the site listed as such in the infobox, that's a site for a subbody -- and selecting German still displays this English name. It doesn't seem to meet WP:ORG. Delete. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 17:34, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
it seems that there are two topics: the notability of the subject and the quality of the article.
- notability: t0 is recognized for being one of a few non-profit organizations in europe, that have developed a critical discourse about the internet and its social and political implications over a long time, and now they are renowned experts in this field. t0 started in 1993, so they have worked on this for almost 25 years now, which also means more or less ever since the beginning of the world wide web. and they have done this from various angles: as an alternative non-profit internet service provider (mainly during the 1990s), educational programs, new media art, research, publishing. a short selection of co-operating organizations and individual artists and researchers can be found at the end of the WP-article's history-section (almost all of them have own WP-articles). (sorry, if this again sounds like an advertisement, but the question 'is there any notability?' in a way automatically triggers that kind of reply.)
- quality of the article: i think that shortening it was a good suggestion. maybe it's still not the best article on WP, but as it can be further improved, quality of the text should not be an unsurmountable problem.
- „it's a mess“? (as stated in the above entry) 25 years is a long time for a small organization, with quite some changes, re-naming, sub-organizations, projects etc. and it's for sure not so easy to orient oneself with a few inputs in a search engine (although this problem doesn't really seem to be related to the WP-article). i just gave it a try and copied the article's title in duckduckgo with a good result. first entries: 1. http://world-information.net/en/ = the current url and the same as in the WP-article's infobox, 2. WP-article; 3. the old address t0.or.at, which is now an archive and had been in use until 2006, when the suborganization public netbase had to be discontinued (as briefly described in the article). keepBecomingx7 (talk) 16:14, 15 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Retain I am strongly of the opinion that the new entry for Lucinda (Lucy) Ash, most certainly, should NOT be deleted; it should, indeed, be RETAINED. It is a fact that Ash has not received known art-Awards. She is very sadly lacking in official recognition, which she so rightly deserves. As for wall-space in permanent, public galleries: she has not DONATED her work as, I discover, is so often the route for an artist to obtain a permanent public hanging. To answer the adverse criticism that Ash does not have books written about her work: this fact is a sad reflection on the art-world, that she has produced (and sold) a significant and substantial assemblage yet, still, no book-form recognition of her achievement is published. The fact of Lucy Ash is that she has exhibited in very well-respected galleries right across London and her paintings hang in many private collections, internationally. Unlike the “rhetorical bullshit and sheer trash that pass for art”, to which Jonathan Jones has referred, Ash’s paintings are not dashed off in an hour but are well-considered and well-worked, as is clear from the inspection of any of her works. Lucy Ash is a painter of distinction and high integrity. The subjects of her paintings are deeply felt and tirelessly executed. The External link: “Images of Paintings by Lucy Ash”, at the end of her entry, gives a glimpse of the quality of her personal integrity and artistry. It is right that Wikipedia should record Ash’s excellence while we wait for Art-criticism to catch up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cadwiki (talk • contribs) 11:16, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Although I am sure I would appreciate her work (certainly that which I have seen) and the topics she handles based on what she has written about her work, we at Wikipedia are not here for art criticism. We rely on secondary sources, and I saw *zero* that spoke about her or her talent. Even if someone is on all the programs of all the best galleries makes no difference--we need an art critic or other secondary source to mention it. If I saw even one secondary source talking about her work, I might consider voting otherwise, but I saw none.

Keep - While the article could definitely use some improvement, it should not be deleted per the longstanding consensus that club seasons in national top flights are notable. Sir Sputnik (talk) 01:18, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect as the guideline says, season articles should consist of well-sourced prose or be redirected. There is consensus for outcomes like this, too: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/1978 VCU Rams men's soccer team. I have no idea where this supposed "top flights" exemption comes from, because the guideline sets the prose requirement for all team season articles. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 01:54, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Sourced prose can be created, therefore improvement and not deletion/redirection is the proper course of action. Every MLS team is eligible for season articles per established precedent, consensus, and WP:NSEASONS. Articles can be created on individual seasons of teams in top professional leagues, as these articles almost always meet the notability requirements. — Jkudlick ⚓ t ⚓ c ⚓ s 07:56, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - WP:NSEASONS states "those articles be redirected to the team page if no sourced prose can be created". There is huge amount of potential for expansion, the match reports alone would be enough to create a substantial amount of prose regarding the club's progress throughout the season. Article is ripe for expansion not deletion. Kosack (talk) 08:43, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - yes it's poorly written, yes it needs improvement but it's notable and passes WP:NSEASONS. DrStrausstalk 12:12, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep Clearly passes WP:NSEASONS. Why was this even nominated? Stop wasting everybody's time and close it. From that page, "Articles can be created on individual seasons of teams in top professional leagues, as these articles almost always meet the notability requirements." That's very different from a college team, like Finnusertop mentioned above. Smartyllama (talk) 14:06, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I took these comments to heart and marked the article as needing improvement, and posted on the talk page what those improvements are. I don't blame User:Amortias for reading the WP:NSEASONS guidelines too literally - they say if it's just prose it should be redirected. In this case, I feel the guidelines are too stringent, as it is common sense that this is good info about a notable team that will not fit in the main Columbus Crew article, and we see this also with 1988–89 Juventus F.C. season. The guidelines should be more like "Team season articles should consist mainly of well-sourced prose, not just statistics and lists of players. Wikipedia is not a stats directory. Articles with just statistics should be marked for improvement, and sections added where prose can improve the article."
Keep per all above. Team season article in a top-level national league. Ejgreen77 (talk) 12:15, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

WP:TOOSOON to meet WP:CORP notability. Current article is 80% about routine startup funding. Much of the remainder is the "business overview" section which, predictably for a startup, covers non-notable APIs and toolkits. Here too we have problematic sources like the Silicon Angle blog which is merely reporting on coverage in crowdsourced Wikibon & no-name and highly questionable TechPanda. Here are results of WP:BEFORE searches. The Register covered it [49] and number 48 out of 50 in an CNBC list [50] are the best online sources available that I can find; no NYT sources, no newspaper sources. This simply doesn't meet substantial coverage in independent RSes required. Brianhe (talk) 16:48, 29 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete article tries to promote by repeating most of the body in the lead. Too soon: there are dozens of companies sprouted up recently with such buzzwords and capital letters.

Delete because material merely duplicates material already in other articles about the individual encampments and about the Movement. IF anyone can find material that is not covered elsewhere, we can merge it to appropriate articles - I did not see anything that seemed to require merging. Note that these were not "raids" in any usual sense of the word; the Occupy "encampments" lasted for weeks and in one case months, and had segued from the original "sit-in" protests into homeless encampments before, one by one, they were closed by police in actions that involved arrests.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:43, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not really an appropriate topic for disambiguation. The title is the name of a fictional character who is an actress; the "disambiguation" links are the two related series in which the fictional character has appeared.

"Team season articles should consist mainly of well-sourced prose, not just statistics and lists of players. Wikipedia is not a stats directory. It is strongly recommended that those articles be redirected to the team page if no sourced prose can be created"
Strong keep. This is a joke right? You might as well delete all the early seasons of top flight football clubs then; this was the one you picked today eh? I understand it is not a well sourced article, but is that really the need to delete it? NSEASONS states "it is strongly recommended for sourced prose", which does not translate to "screw it, let's delete it". Usually we just put a reference tag on it, or better yet, find some sources? Stay tuned. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 00:20, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
