Inertia (anxiety)[edit]

Delete per 6, 7, and 8 and as meaningless or unsupport-ed/-able under its current title, and also per 6 as an unsupportable neologism under the proposed move title.

This page was created as a 600-byte stub in 2012, growing to 3.6kb with four references (e.g., rev. 992527804) and then became listed recently as an assigned topic for this Wiki Ed course. The assigned Wiki Ed student performed a page move which was reverted. The student then created a properly formatted move request (here) which is currently active. The move request proposes "Autistic inertia" as the new title.

This deletion request concerns both topics:

• Inertia (anxiety) (the current topic) – not clear what this even is. No reliable references since 2012.
• Autistic inertia (the move request target) – this is a neologism from a single paper from 25 November 2020 (Buckle et al. 2020; result #2 in this search). It's not even published yet, it's merely a preprint.

There are endless blogs and community websites which do contain the term. However, the title "Autistic inertia" has the look and feel of a syndrome or disorder, making it subject to WP:MEDRS. If the intention is to keep this article outside the stricter referencing required by MEDRS, say, an article about the characteristics or nature of autistic people, then it should be given a descriptive title of that nature, and not one that looks like a medical topic. My guess is there isn't sufficient reliable information for a stand-alone article even for that, and that the Autism article might be able to have some content added to it about the topic.

Some complicating issues:

• the state of referencing was awful; I reduced the 3kb article to a sentence (with one, poor reference retained).
• another editor has since tagged it for revdel due to plagiarism still present in the article history.
• creator AutisticMan (talk · contribs) not notified (they are an indeffed sock)

There is nothing worth merging anywhere; the RM target is a non-notable neologism; this article should be deleted. Mathglot (talk) 00:02, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Survey[edit]

• Keep and move to a broader title under mental health. A very quick book and scholar search seems to bring it up as more a general mental health topic as it being related to having the initial effort to overcome a struggle. Even Freud seems to have commented on it. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 01:39, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep and move to Autistic inertia. A google scholar search reveals academic publications about the phenonemon, such as here where they describe it as a common topic in autistic circles, and open discussion here, where it merits an index item and here. This presentation from an academic researcher states the term has been used since 2001 at least, and this recent doctorate states "Autistic inertia has been discussed by autistic advocates (M. Sparrow, 2016; Sullivan, 2002; van de Wettering, 2010)but has scarcely received attention in the empirical literature". So it's a thing, and academics publishing in oversighted sources are saying it's a thing, although it is only recently being given more serious research attention.OsFish (talk) 04:16, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Extra comment: Having re-read the proposal, I would like to emphasise in bold that Autistic inertia is not a neologism in a 2020 paper. Thus, a key premise of the deletion move is not true.OsFish (talk) 04:21, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Inertia is a natural state as it takes energy to make changes (especially on Wikipedia). In the context of autism, this is done better at analysis paralysis. I don't think a redirect is appropriate as the current content is too flimsy and the title too vague. Andrew🐉(talk) 09:09, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete – The available sourcing is too weak. "Autistic inertia" is not a term in widespread use (not even that widespread on forums) and has too little coverage in WP:RS, no WP:MEDRS to be seen. – Thjarkur (talk) 09:26, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - I've been a clinical psychologist for 30 years and I have never heard of a disorder called "inertia"; there is no such listing in DSM-5 or ICD-11; and as Mathglot has explained in painstaking (albeit concise) detail, this alleged disorder/problem/condition (whatever you want to call it) lacks a logical foundation, including references to the scholarly literature. This article is an embarrassment and a sad example of our tendency to protect silly articles that should have never been published simply because they've languished on Wikipedia for a few years. Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) [he/his/him] 20:48, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  Markworthen, I wonder whether you have any further thoughts on whether this is a phenomenon some people experience, so that it could be "a thing", even though it's not "a disorder". There are many subjects that are not listed in the DSM-5 or ICD-11 and that are often rather vaguely or imprecisely defined and have no single logical foundation, but that I still think belong in Wikipedia (e.g., Love, Self-denial, Altruism, Charity (practice), Prayer – for that matter, we have trouble even coming up with a single, universal, logically consistent definition of Woman). WhatamIdoing (talk) 17:19, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Good points, WhatamIdoing. Thank you. Although this article should be deleted, it would certainly be appropriate (and helpful) to discuss the concept of "emotional inertia" in the Anxiety article. It's a relatively new hypothesized construct, but it has garnered some serious research.^[2][3][4][5] Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) [he/his/him] 18:06, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at McHusky's advice, I'm thinking that the best option might be a redirect to Anxiety (or another similar article). WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:54, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I support that proposal. Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) [he/his/him] 18:56, 10 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. The original article was basically just poorly sourced plagiarism, to be sure. "Inertia (anxiety)" is unsaveable as far as I can tell, since there's really just nothing there, and explicitly linking it with anxiety disorders would have to violate WP:NOR, since there's nothing to be found that even meets basic reliability standards, let alone medical standards. If we tried to save it, it would have to be moved to Autistic Inertia and it would need some serious improvements to sourcing. Unfortunately, it appears that there isn't much for scholarly sources, and there isn't anything that meets WP:MEDRS, for sure. (I still think something should be done for the topic, and that might mean a redirect could be useful, but I'll put that in the discussion section) --McHusky (talk) 23:41, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm all for keeping the article if the sources demonstrate significant coverage in reliable, independent sources, but that requires evidence that meets the GNG test of Notability. To date, the links provided above in a couple of the keep !votes above make claims which do not hold up under scrutiny. The following claims are made:

• "A very quick book and scholar search seems to bring it up as more a general mental health topic..."

  No, they don't. There is nothing in those results that supports a claim of notability. In the book search, results 3, 4, and 5 have false positives with intervening punctuation like commas, or are parts of two sentences. None of the top ten book results contain the term. In the Scholar search, one result is relevant: the 25 November Buckle paper that I already linked at the top; it is the only one, and the authors themselves call it out as a neologism as far as its first appearance in a journal.

• "A google scholar search reveals academic publications about the phenonemon, such as here ..."

  This is not an academic publication, it is a preprint, and it is the 'download link' version of the same preprint I identified in the Afd statement at the top as a "paper from 25 November 2020". It's not surprising someone else would find it again, as it is the only academic result from Scholar that is remotely a match. The authors recognize it as a neologism, stating: "This study... is the first to explore 'autistic inertia'..."; with autistic inertia in double quotes.

• "...and open discussion here..."

  This links (Conn, 2019), and has one passing mention on page 28, referencing this 2013 unstrangemind blog post.

• "This presentation from an academic researcher..."

  There is in fact a web page with an abstract at that address, belonging to University of Kent Academic Repository. The web page identifies itself as an "unpublished" paper, and provides this full-text download link which is a dead link to a 2019 blog post of the PDA Society.

• "this recent doctorate states..."

  This thesis is entitled, "Understanding executive function in young autistic people: moving from the lab to the everyday", and contains the term "autistic inertia" three times: twice in footnotes (naming unstrangemind blog again—small world), and once in the body of the 303 page thesis, in particular, the "...has been discussed..." sentence already quoted above.

• "Extra comment: ...Autistic inertia is not a neologism in a 2020 paper."

  Technically, you're right; the term appears in numerous autism blogs and discussion boards, and has for a long time. But since Notability depends on reliable sources, and not SPSes, by "neologism" I was thinking about published academic papers. I haven't been able to find any academic reference before 25 November 2020, and the authors themselves state that that was the first time it has appeared in a study. Sorry about any confusion regarding what I meant by neologism—I meant printed appearance.

I don't dispute that there are blogs with discussions on the topic, but that is not enough. So far, I haven't found even one reliable, independent source with significant coverage that would support notability of this topic, and we'd need more than one. Mathglot (talk) 06:16, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I still think something should be done for this topic, and it would be shame to ignore it despite its clear and strong presence as a subject of discussion in the autism community. Does anyone know what the standard or guideline is for counting things as "biomedical" or not? This topic is admittedly close to that line, whatever it is, but I think there's a strong case to be made for this topic having a mention somewhere in Wikipedia, given the degree to which it's discussed in the autism community—it's discussed so much that it actually has gotten attention to the point of being thoroughly described in published scholarly research (Welch, 2020),^[6] as well as directly investigated by unpublished research (Buckle)^[7] (I know that's not a valid source, but my point is just that it's enough of "a thing" to warrant at least a mention somewhere on Wikipedia). No one's claiming that this is a medical disorder itself, and insofar as it may be a potential "symptom" of autism spectrum disorder, there's insufficient material that meets WP:MEDRS. That said, I believe that insofar as it's a significant phenomenon and topic of discussion in the autism community, we have the sources for that.

Still, even then I'm unsure if there are really the sources necessary to support an entire page for that. It also could appear to be more medical than it really is, if simply put on its own page. Being in context on a page and clearly labeled as "a not scientifically/medically verified phenomenon and common topic of discussion within the autism community" could be enough to keep it out of the purview of medical sourcing standards. If anyone has ideas for where that could go, I'm all ears (eyes?). Executive dysfunction and Societal and cultural aspects of autism stand out to me as potential places, although the former may be a bit too "medical" in context, so I'm unsure if it would even matter how strongly I disclaim the medical validity of the term. Either way, could it be worth keeping the Inertia (anxiety) page as a redirect to whatever might manifest for Autistic Inertia?

(A couple notes: I'm the Wiki Ed student that was assigned this article. I'm not personally invested in keeping it around or anything, but I do think this is a great opportunity to get rid of this problematic article and instead represent this topic in a more appropriate fashion elsewhere on Wikipedia. Also, apologies for any formatting problems—I'm new to editing here, let alone on AfD pages). --McHusky (talk) 23:46, 6 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@McHusky:, you're a new editor, and you're doing fine, learning the ropes much faster than average, so don't worry too much about formatting. This discussion should concentrate on the Afd question, as you did above. Other questions, such as,

Does anyone know what the standard or guideline is for counting things as "biomedical" or not?

are good ones, but not relevant here. If you would bring that up elsewhere, and ((ping)) me, I will answer it. (Normally I'd say, ask it on the article talk page, but since it may disappear, that's not a good venue. You can ask on your own Talk page, on my Talk page, or even at WT:MED.) Btw, you have a great attitude, and you'd be a good addition to the project; I hope you decide to stay on after your course is over. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 01:41, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also, wrt where to put such information, Societal and cultural aspects of autism doesn't seem like the right place (how is it either societal, or cultural? Inertia could manifest entirely alone, couldn't it?) but what about something at Autism spectrum#Behavioral characteristics? Mathglot (talk) 05:27, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Andrew Davidson mentioned Analysis paralysis above, and that looks like another potential merge/redirect target (not that there's much available to merge, but there isn't any particular need to delete it if we're just going to re-create the page as a redirect, either).

thanks for notifying me , one my my macros malfunctioned. I fixed it. It's a basic but general concept, comonly found in a great many people. "Autistic inertia" would be a special use, which I wasn;t previously aware of, andwould need a separate article if valid. As an example of what the article should betalking about, I have an great deal of reluctance to start dealing with the flood of promotionalism every day at WP, or , in the Real World, before starting the laundry. and I typically call this inertia. I don't think it has anything to do with any autistic tendencies, but just the human relutance to start a large and endless task. I use the word, while knowing perfectly well it is completely different from the physical concept. Is there anyone here who has not used it that way?

Comment I support merging or adding new content about this topic to Autism spectrum#Behavioral characteristics. Based on the discussion, there seems to be agreement that the current article as written has problems that that could be fixed through selective merging.

This is the page for a (mainly covers) band made up of various musicians who have previously been in other, better-known bands. None of the current or former members has their own WP page, and even if they did, notability is not inherited. Unless I've missed something, their gigs have been support slots for better-known bands or on small stages at big multiple-stage events such as Pride festivals. Their recordings have been either on minor labels or self-released on Bandcamp. None of the cited sources demonstrate significant, third-party coverage: they're either streaming/download sites or social media, and I've been unable to find any other coverage which would pass WP:NBAND.

• Keep. Firstly, you obviously didn't read the article properly, as the band only started out with mostly covers... They have since changed the direction of their music, releasing original material. So your branding of them as a (mostly covers) band is not only inaccurate, but ignorant, given their number of original songs is greater than the number of covers that they have recorded.

Their current label is not a 'minor label'... Having been around since 1995, and having many notable acts in their rosta, Out of Line Music would be classed as an independent label, by Wikipedia's classification WP:NBAND Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable). They have released two albums and an EP with Out of Line Music.
They have played the main stage at festivals, not just small stages:

They also have been the headline act, including their double headline tour earlier this year with Ashbury Heights, where both acts were headliners. The second half of the tour, which would have taken place later in the year, was cancelled on account of the Covid-19 pandemic.
They have had multiple articles and interviews in Germany's Sonic Seducer and Orkus magazines. The latest being:

Have you got any more reliable sources available? As per WP:RS, we try to avoid using Facebook as a reference for notability. Spiderone 21:18, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The information has since been removed from the Schattenwelt website, as most festival websites tend to focus on promoting whats upcoming, as opposed to the festivals that have already taken place. So the original information as to the bands who played the main stages is no longer there, and only seems to exist in any form of chronology through Facebook posts, which makes referencing difficult.

• https://afterdark.co/events/london/electrowerkz/static-darkness-halloween-festival - That has information as to the bands that have played, but not which stages they were on.
• https://www.amphi-festival.de/2019/bands.html - This shows they were on the second largest stage at Amphi Festival 2019 (One of the largest festivals for Goth/Electronic music)
• https://www.amphi-festival.de/2017/bands.html - This shows they played on the main stage two years prior in 2017.
• https://www.meraluna.de/en/info/history/ - This shows they played at M'era Luna Festival in 2018 (Another of the largest festivals for Goth/Electronic music) but does not state which stage they played

There are also a number of pictures of interviews from magazines and newspapers on the bands website, as well as links to some interviews on various sites:

• http://www.massiveego.co.uk/press.html

Also, I'd like to reiterate the point I made previously about them having released two albums on a notable independent label which by Wikipedia's classification WP:NBAND (See #5) is enough for the article to be deemed notable. Alinblack (talk) 16:25, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Pointless split of article. It needs trimming to remove daily counts and just show significant points in the timeline rather than splitting. This needs merging back to Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland (January–June 2020) and renamed back to Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland. noq (talk) 17:23, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: Absolutely rubbish. This is seriously such a bad reason to delete the article... The idea of splitting the article → Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland to two separate articles → Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland (January–June 2020) and Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland (July–December 2020) is the right decision made by User:Love of Corey. The daily counts of cases, deaths, de-notified cases, de-notified deaths and probable deaths are there for a reason. They must be there and will be there until this pandemic is over.

Many COVID-19 articles also include daily counts on their timeline section, for example the timeline section of the COVID-19 pandemic in Jamaica article. They're timeline section includes daily counts along with significant points as well, and so they're article size is very long because of this.

I strongly believe that this article should not be deleted. Daily counts should not be deleted. If deleted, all good faith edits contributed by myself and other fellow Irish Wikipedians editing will be deleted which is a terrible thing to do. I strongly believe that this article and the January–June article should not be deleted and should remain the same. Edl-irishboy (talk) 18:35, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A bit of an over reaction there. Bearing in mind WP:NOTSTATS and WP:NOTNEWS, what is the enduring encyclopaedic value of day by day totals? If they are absolutely needed, then a table would suffice and no need for an article split. Why must they remain and why only until the pandemic is over, if they are not needed after then why have them now? noq (talk) 20:27, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, I did overreact a bit there. I didn't mean that after the pandemic is over, these articles will be deleted. The reason for this spit is because, in accordance with WP:SPLIT, the length of the original article was extremely long, so it was split into two different articles. Never mind about the daily counts, because I think that's irrelevant to this discussion at the moment. The COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland article has been split into 4 different articles already, because of the length and size of the original article. It was split first from the original timeline section to the Timeline of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland article, then to the Social impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland article, then to the Economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the Republic of Ireland article, and finally the split to the two timeline articles. From my understanding, the split of the timeline articles is in accordance with WP:SPLIT. Edl-irishboy (talk) 22:50, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I looked to see whether there 's any discussion on the talk pages for these timeline articles and couldn't find anything. The closest seems to be at Talk:COVID-19_pandemic_in_the_Republic_of_Ireland#Splitting_the_article_ideas, which is a higher level still.

• Change scope/Keep - agree that the topic of this article is too broad. Alonso's article would be too long if all of this one was merged into it, but I definitely think the parts of this article which aren't related to F1 and are missing from his article should be put there, and vis-versa for the F1 bits of his main article to this one, if that is what is decided. It would be a shame to lose the added detail of this article especially regarding his non-F1 racing which is lacking in his main article. Also, I'm not sure I understand why Fernando Alonso#Karting career is a separate section to "motor racing" but that isn't overly relevant to this discussion.

Alternatively I think just keep this article and merge anything relevant from his main article as mentioned above. Either way, I don't think deleting or a full merge would work as the main article is already quite long. A7V2 (talk) 03:59, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep This seems to be a mechanical drive-by nomination of an article that existed for over 10 years because it has existed for over 10 years. It points out a problem with the article but it doesn't appear that the nominator has made any effort to fix this. Now, it's our explicit policy that articles may be imperfect and 99% of our 6+ million articles are less than good. The supposed problem here seems trivially easy to fix. If sources are wanted then just consult the numerous academic papers such as The influence of student learning characteristics on progress through the extended essay: A component of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme or Student perceptions of the value of the International Baccalaureate extended essay in preparing for university studies. See WP:BEFORE; WP:NOTCLEANUP and WP:SOFIXIT. Andrew🐉(talk) 09:54, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's not because it's existed for ten years with bad sources -- it's because better sources do not seem to exist. You mention two research papers (which have 33 citations between the both of them), but not a reason why one component of the exam warrants a separate article from the rest of the exam (there are not separate articles for the SAT essay, the AP exam essay, or ACT essay, for example). The reason I mention that its content was cribbed entirely from SPS is to note that the article isn't the product of researching and bringing together independent coverage; it's someone retyping a product brochure into Wikipedia. This is not even a case of "a very effortfully-written article going to the dogs because it failed GNG"; there's not much to merge into the main International Baccalaureate article, and even the sources you've provided would do better there than in an attempt at a standalone article. jp×g 13:52, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete "In a notable incident, one of her hand-made dresses was poorly copied and sold by an online company for a fraction of the cost that Banner made it."??? Just no. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 08:29, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wired seems to consider it important enough to write much of an article on. I agree the phrasing is poor (the incident itself isn't notable by Wikipedia's definition), but that doesn't mean that it's not encyclopedic information. Gbear605 (talk) 15:44, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep as page creator. Easily meets WP:BASIC - has significant coverage in multiple published independent reliable sources. For a couple examples, see this interview (see the notability section at WP:INTERVIEW) and the coverage in this W article. There is more coverage in this article that I didn't include because I didn't want to spend time analyzing their policies, but upon further investigation they meet the requirements at WP:RELIABLE. There is more coverage elsewhere (for instance in Teen Vogue) that doesn't meet reliability guidelines but still suggests at notability. Gbear605 (talk) 15:44, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging DGG as the AfC approver. Gbear605 (talk) 15:44, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I'm quite skeptical in this field, but we need to increase our coverage of the many people in the field who are actually notable -- our coverage in fashion is usually based on other considerations--as a rough guess I think at least half the articles in Category:Fashion biography stubs are either trivial or promotional. . I hesitated before approving this one, but she's probably notable as a costume historian, and Wired is a respectable source. In working with borderline AfCs the role of a reviewer is not to actually judge notability, because it's often possible to make a good argument in either direction, but only try to predict what AFD will do. I accepted on the basis that most borderline articles about people on the web with more than one Wired source seem to be usually kept at AfD. DGG ( talk ) 21:54, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. I believe that this page is valid for keeping because her notability does not only apply to YouTube but also to her current profession as a recognised dress historian and prior work as an assistant designer on Broadway. I believe that the page definitely needs a lot of work, and more information could be included (such as her prior Broadway work) to further exemplify her notability and the validity of the page, but I think that the pages' existence is perfectly valid. PunkAndromeda (talk) 09:39, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as she is a notable historian in a niche that is seeing increasing amounts of attention in recent years. This study of historical attire is important; Banner studies it inside out, applies those methods, and imparts her knowledge to a large following. Enough coverage is in the article and it looks like more relevant coverage is above. DiamondRemley39 (talk) 17:14, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Roxy the dog, is WP:BASIC not enough? Do you disagree that there is enough coverage? Gbear605 (talk) 17:19, 15 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • BASIC says, - "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability" - so yes, I disagree, WP:BASIC is not satisfied. -Roxy the inedible dog . wooF 16:49, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
      • The Hyperallergic interview and the Mary Sue article are solely about Banner, and there is non trivial coverage of her in most of the other sources, including in Wired and the BBC. They're all independent reliable sources and together they easily prove notability. Gbear605 (talk) 16:56, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: Per reasons above. Article easily passes WP:BASIC, especially with sources indicated by Gbear605. ASTIG😎 _{(ICE T • ICE CUBE)} 15:00, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep I think the YouTube element is a red herring. It's simply a promotional channel, but with or without it, her work still has significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. I believe she's notable. StarM 00:45, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A change of pace here, if only for the rather florid style of the article. And the second paragraph isn't entirely inaccurate, but here's what this source has to say: "Doc Beatty, an early settler, was instrumental in the road's creation, dragging a mule-drawn scraper through the badlands to the Truckhaven gas station to create the first rough road." And "early" here is the 1920s; the road in question was opened in 1930. So, yeah, Truckhaven was a truck stop, and that's what aerials show for the tiny cluster of buildings at the spot indicated by topos. I don't know when it went away but the spot is at the edge of the surreal desert/suburbia of Salton City. Mangoe (talk) 03:19, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Because someone seems to think that WP:NOTBUREAUCRACY is just an essay he can dismiss, I see I will have to waste everyone else's time and mine: it's not a notable place under WP:GEOLAND or any other standard. But I think everyone could already figure that out. Mangoe (talk) 14:46, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's still not a reason to delete as WP:GEOLAND explains the alternative: "If a Wikipedia article cannot be developed using known sources, information on the informal place should be included in the more general article on the legally recognized populated place or administrative subdivision that contains it." In any case, it appears that this place is reasonably notable for its history, trail, geology, &c. Andrew🐉(talk) 20:24, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. No post office. Looking at old topos indicates that there were a few buildings at that location at one time. Newspapers.com mentions a cafe, Doc Beaty's trail work and some other non-notable articles (don't be confused by the Truckhaven gas station in Colusa County). The florid text certainly is a change, it looks like it was made by an editor with only three edits, so it should probably be reviewed and edited carefully. GBooks yields geothermal plans and links for the Truckhaven trail, but nothing about the Truckhaven community. I found no legal recognition, so #1 of WP:GEOLAND is not met. The coverage is trivial and indicates that Truckhaven was a non-notable cafe so #2 of WP:GEOLAND is not met.

• Speedy delete Not notable with the press coverage. Making threats does not entitle an entity to notability or by extension an encyclopedia article. Vikram Vincent 06:52, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - news reports are not just passing mentions and if you click the "books" link at top of this page then you will see more refs to them. That one news source at one time described them as obscure is not a reason to delete when in fact there are numerous reports of them over a reasonably lengthy period and in various contexts. - Sitush (talk) 11:54, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have reviewed the books too before nominating and they are all passing mentions of this org. --Walrus Ji (talk) 14:51, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to be saying everything is a passing mention. I wonder if you understand the term? When a lot of reliable sources refer to the HJS in various contexts and describe what it is, the mentions may not be thousands of words but are nonetheless sufficient for our purposes. There are plenty of mainstream sources referring to them and it is reasonable to suppose that a reader of any one of those sources might want to delve further, which is a part of the reason Wikipedia exists. It is so long since I commented here without receiving a response from you that I nearly missed it, sorry. If you respond further, please try to ping me. - Sitush (talk) 19:34, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Have you seen this interview? - Sitush (talk) 19:47, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Sitush:, yes I understand and there is no need to attack me. Your link is an interview of the org leader. WP:Notability (organizations and companies)#Secondary sources clarifies that Interviews of executives are primary sources and (I quote from that link:) "Primary sources cannot be used to establish notability.". Org notability is lacking for an article. Perhaps a paragraph about the org in article Sangh Parivar should suffice. --Walrus Ji (talk) 01:26, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I apologise if you feel under attack. You have less than 500 edits here, all since September, and it is quite unusual in my experience to see someone like you with such professed knowledge of arcane aspects of Wikipedia policies and guidelines. However, I think you are running before you have learned to walk. For example, GNG is sufficient in its own right and the main purpose of NORG is to prevent the project from being abused by PR campaigns etc. There is no sense in which that Caravan piece could be considered promotional in nature, nor most of the news stories - they make it very obvious to any uninvolved person (such as me, who neither lives in India nor professes a religious or political creed) that the HJS comprises a bunch of extremist idiots. But extremist idiots are no more censored on Wikipedia than the more mainstream conformists. The HJS was described as obscure in 2010 but we are now a decade on and it has been mentioned by many independent sources. What actually is your objection here? - Sitush (talk) 06:06, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think reading and understanding GNG and ORG requires deep knowledge. Both are mostly common sense. My objection is listed in the opening statement. The world is full of idiots and many extreme ones at that. Their work/impact/achievement matters to consider them for an article. Based on what I have seen so far, I think this group has been inconsequential, as a result of which it has lack of multiple examples of "Significant coverage" in reliable media. Hence in my opinion it fails both GNG and ORG. I can see that you disagree with my opinion, and I can live with that.--Walrus Ji (talk) 06:35, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

An organisation whose attempts at censorship, promotion of religious bigotry and alleged connection to acts of violence etc, all and more of which have been reported by a multitude of national mainstream media outlets, is scarcely "inconsequential". It has been around since 2002 and reported since at least 2010. - Sitush (talk) 07:44, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep They have some degree of notoriety in connection with the assassination of the journalist and activist Gauri Lankesh,[[4]] [[5]] [[6]], which itself was a notable politically influenced murder. [[7]] The Hindu Janajagruti Samiti are relevant in the context of Right-wing Hindu fanaticism and extremism.

Total qualifying sources					0	There must be multiple qualifying sources to meet the notability requirements

Two sources [19] and [20] were dead for me. In summary: None of the references with exception of the Org's website actually provide any significant coverage of the Org IMHO. Kolma8 (talk) 17:40, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• The Times of India recently restructured its website (as also did The Hindu). Those articles will still exist on the site under a new url, and should be at the Wayback Machine under the original url. I am on mobile which makes it a pain to fix these things, but I can assure you that the citations were valid and therefore still are. -Sitush (talk) 18:33, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• One of those two links is here. I used the Archive link at bottom of the ToI website to find it. I am unsure about the apparent obsession with NORG here. Surely GNG is sufficient when it has had so many mentions in the national media etc and clearly is not a flash in the pan. - Sitush (talk) 18:46, 21 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. With help of my knowledge in spanish, I found that this company has been superseded by "Falconi Consultores de Resultado" as stated in its portuguese article [21]. Even so, both companies do not have solid coverage to establish notability. Does not seem to meet NCORP or GNG. Nevertheless, one of the founders, Vicente Falconi, does seem to be notable (portuguese [22]), so if anyone cares enough to create an article on him and merge content from the institute there, I would vote for it. I will not volunteer, though. Mathias (talk) 03:18, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
