Unreferenced rivalry cruft. These two teams have only played 47 games against each other in 110 years, and none of any import in over half a century. Hardly the stuff rivalries are made of to say nothing of having not one reference to back any of the data or assertions put forth in the article. Gateman1997 (talk) 22:42, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Keep - Real historical rivalry. Bad article needing much work, but that's not reason to put the baby in the blender. Carrite (talk) 00:55, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
• Weak keep – The article as written actually disguises the notability of the topic. Half the page is devoted to meaningless interleague games, and most of the rest is just a laundry list of players. This has some good background information, which is exactly what a rivalry article should contain. I'm going with a weak keep because there's less out there than I expected, but my gut tells me articles are avaliable if you're willing to look hard enough. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 03:42, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep, but improve I have been working on this the best I can. I don't know much about it, so I tried to put in what I could to make it better. The rivalry was fierce back then. There was an AFD nomination already for this and most people said to keep it. Feel free to access it from the page's discussion page. 161.185.151.150 (talk) 15:17, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

• Keep—this was a fierce rivalry back in the early part of the 20th century, although it tapered off when the Giants moved to San Francisco. This article definitely needs significant amounts of work, but is a worthy subject. –Grondemar 19:23, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep I didn't have the time to improve this article, but I was gonna give it a shot before voting. I see it's already been improved, though it's probably not finished. The old version was poor, this version is better, and the subject is notable. --Muboshgu (talk) 23:37, 19 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep It now seems to meet the general notability guidelines. --Brian Halvorsen (talk) 03:00, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep - Nothing has changed since the prior deletion discussion for this article, Knowledge (XXG):Articles for deletion/Giants yankees rivalry that should have been referenced here, to make the topic less notable. Per the discussion there, this was an extremely notable rivalry, and written about in published sources as such. Just because most of the notable interaction took place years ago is irrelevant - notability is not temporary. And whatever one's opinion of such articles, the rivalry between two teams who played multiple World Series while sharing a stadium, then multiple World Series playing in home stadiums about a mile apart, can be considered "cruft". Rlendog (talk) 01:35, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep WP:ITSCRUFT is not a valid reason to delete. By this flawed logic, the Subway Series is also "cruft". Don't toss around a word that doesn't apply to a notable article just because you don't like it. Vodello (talk) 06:01, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

• Keep - I am tempted to craft a "Carrite's Minority Rationale for Including Every Politician That Moves" page and just linking to that. In short: Knowledge (XXG) has a real world function for many users, providing a neutral venue for the presentation of political candidate biographies. This is a valuable service, not to mention the fact that such biographies are apt to be linked off other pages dealing with specific elections. Why settle for redlinks? Why not document the candidates in real time? These are public figures, worthy of inclusion in an electronic encyclopedia. Carrite (talk) 00:59, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Comment Notable local politicians can have articles, but require similar notability standards to other, independent, verifiable sources. See WP:POLITICIAN. If we have articles for all politicians, regardless of notability- then every high school class president should have an article. This subject and other similar ones nominated with this are all localized policial races with very little to no media coverage. Bhockey10 (talk) 20:30, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Comment You hit the nail on the head about the promotional and not neutral, I just realized this subject and others created by the same user and up for AfDs are all of the same party, with no articles of opponents.

I searched for reliable sources, and could only find mentions that she's running for State Senate (e.g. ) and one article about an obscure controversy from 2006 (which is apparently on the spam blacklist, so never mind!).

My impression, which could easily be wrong, is that the copyvio requires "hard" deletion. Absent the copyvio, redirect while preserving history (assuming a suitable target exists) would be a preferred option, to allow easier recreation for a winning candidate. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 01:38, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

These are localized politicians with almost no coverage and there isn't an election article to redirect to. Bhockey10 (talk) 01:57, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

@Hullaballoo. We keep hx for the GFDL. Is that a factor where it was a copyvio? "hard deletion" sounds like the way to go. @Bhockey. That being the case, I don't feelbad about deleting. Dlohcierekim 03:14, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Keep, and ought to be a speedy keep. The LA Times article, cited as an external link, but functionally a reference, is solid evidence of notability, and ignoring it is good reason to discount or ignore the prior !votes. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 23:02, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Homay is the frontman & the most important member but the other members like Pasha Hanjani took part in The Pulse of Persia (album) and other projects that makes the band notable. Spada II ♪♫ (talk) 17:30, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
• Very Strong Keep. The group IS notable, at the very least! This was the short response to User:Beeshoney's assertion. The longer response: those who know Persian music, those who know Rumi and his poetry, etc., will testify that Mastan Ensemble is the best of its kind and generation. Incidentally, the assertion by User:Beeshoney that there were "No in-line references" in the entry at issue contradicts facts on the ground --- one needs only to consult the entry and verify that there are in-line references aplenty. The Ensemble has received uniformly positive reviews wherever they have given live performance --- consult to External-links section of the entry (see e.g. this). Could I respectfully ask User:Beeshoney's expertise regarding Persian Music whereby to undertake such a drastic move as removing the entry at issue? Those who know Persian, can readily testify that Mastan Ensemble has almost perfected the art of Chāmeh Sarā'i (I have described this term in the main text of Mastan Ensemble); the poems accompanying the music of Mastan Ensemble are further of highest quality. One more thing: to my best judgement, the Ensemble has (1) the world's very best Tar player of his generation in the person of Azad Mirzapour (just watch this short piece -- the piece is played superbly; the tuning of the tar for this particular piece is extremely difficult and subtle; a slightly wrong tuning would kill what one calls Zakhmehs (tr: Strikes) in this music, and (2) the world's very best Kamancheh player of his generation in the person of Sina Jahanabadi (just listen to this piece). Already these two great musicians are sufficient proof for the greatness of Mastan Ensemble. --BF 03:37, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

• Comment I haven't figured it out but there are funny things going on with this article, perhaps significant editing by competitors. This edit in particular appears strange. ElKevbo (talk) 06:29, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Comment I work for Instructure, and yes, there's something strange going on. This is the second time this page has been stripped of all references and then nominated for deletion. I believe it is the same user, and he appears to have some affiliation with the Gilfus Education Group (Gilfus seems to have some kind of tie to Blackboard, the largest company in the space), as that is where the majority of the original IP address' edits happened (96.255.250.34), and the second time (75.197.194.2) he added a link to Gilfus on Educational Technology before vandalizing the Instructure page. Nothing has changed significantly (other than the addition of new sources and some cleanup by other users, including User:Haakon) since the last nomination for deletion in May... what are the guidelines around repeat nominations? Brian.whitmer (talk) 14:14, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
  • Comment Please note your use of the term vandalism... Knowledge (XXG):Vandalism "Any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism. Even harmful edits that are not explicitly made in bad faith are not vandalism. For example adding a controversial personal opinion to an article is not vandalism, although reinserting it despite multiple warnings can be disruptive (however, edits/reverts over a content dispute are never vandalism, see )." --Jaydillinger (talk) 20:57, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
  • Comment Many editors focus on specific articles and topics for editing including specific articles in specific industries. Please be aware that the majority of editing is based on notability requirements. Authors of this article should review: Knowledge (XXG):Notability for requirements. Also please review Knowledge (XXG):Reliable_sources/Noticeboard. Unless specific Notability can be accomplished this article should be deleted until the article is notable. Please also review: Knowledge (XXG):What_Wikipedia_is_not --Jaydillinger (talk) 20:50, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Comment "...based on prominence in the space" seems like a justification for keeping, not deleting. "zero sources found" is patently false, even after the article was stripped of references. There are multiple sources to both print articles and reputable online eLearning writers. This nomination is by a competitor and I recommend it be cancelled. Brian.whitmer (talk) 14:14, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Comment "...We need to open this article up to other administrators for comments with a review of notability to determine appropriateness for this article. --Jaydillinger (talk) 20:40, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Delete - Could not find significant coverage by reliable sources to establish notability. References given in page are either not independent reliable sources or unrelated material. Other independent editors should submit Delete or Keep to determine next steps in article status. -- Knowledge (XXG):Notability --Jaydillinger (talk) 21:35, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Comment The new user Jaydillinger appears to be trying to speedy delete LMS company web sites (see Instructure and also Thinking Cap -- where the speedy delete is a copy-paste of what was put on Instructure's page, and actually applies even less there than it does here). The last time this happened for Instructure it was an IP address whose history was in maintaining the article on a competitor's founder's pages (Stephen Gilfus, Gilfus Education Group). This time the new IP address added a link to that same page to another article, and then nominated this page for speedy deletion. The two seem to be related, and I suspect Jaydillinger may be associated with them as well (I can't prove that, obviously, although this is not a highly edited article so it seems possible, and the edits performed by the user, especially on the Talk:Instructure page are suspect). Brian.whitmer (talk) 23:35, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep - (*Note, I'm a company employee) Multiple news sources cited, as well as a press release covering the Instructure-Turnitin partnership, both of which indicate notability. None of the sources cited are unrelated material and all except the Educause link are independent. Google and Twitter searches bring up plenty of additional results. The article has been worked by multiple editors to remove biased pov and additional unbiased sources have been added since the last nomination, so I believe there is even less reason now to delete than there was before. In my opinion this re-nomination is unfounded. Brian.whitmer (talk) 23:35, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Strong Delete - Gosh, where do we start with this one? Started by the acknowledge co-creator of the company (should have been deleted as WP:BIAS); and then nominated by Kiteinthewind under WP:CSD G11, which was contested by article creator/co-co-founder. Since then has been an ongoing edit war between company employees and clear and obvious competitor-editors! Nominated twice for deletion, this is third debate. Lets get back to basics: doesn't presently meet WP:GNG or specifically WP:ORG, delete it! When they do something of significance and passes WP:ORG, then I would support inclusion.

The others either establish facts but do not mention Instructure (e.g., Chronicle of Higher Education), or are not a reliable source (such as press release or blog).

Delete. Fails WP:Notability and WP:CRIN. The article is about a one-off exhibition match involving numerous people who are not first-class cricketers.

• Keep - this match is notable as its first time in 48 years anyone has played in a pro-am format reviving the spirit of the Gentlemen v Players match. Many Gentlemen v Players matches were exhibition matches and this one no different from the others in that respect. The differences are this is a new format with inner city kids being given a platform to excel under the banner of an historic format and as such should be encouraged. Perhaps the current page could be kept edited to explain the differences with the old format. (n.b. Added by User:Csh24).
  • I don't think 48 years is a particularly long time, and the "spirit" is not the same as a matched genuinely linked to the older G v P matches, also it doesn't necessarily inherit its notability. Giving "inner city kids" a platform to excel is all very well but that does not a notable topic make. S.G. _ping! 20:09, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

I would just point out that the the original GvP matches were not exhibition games: they were all first-class fixtures and, although the Gentlemen often fielded a weak team, it was one of the standout fixtures in every season. ----Jack | 17:44, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

This is a non-article in the article namespace. I tried to speedy it, but User:Xeno rejected. ~EDDY ~ 18:17, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Keep - First, see Knowledge (XXG):Pseudo-namespaces. Second, CAT:TEMP formerly redirected to Category:Temporary Wikipedian userpages, and was linked countless times in deletion logs. The former category provided an explanation of the deletion; it has since been deleted, which is why an explanation is provided at the page in the "pseudo-namespace". An alternative would be to restore the category, tag it as deprecated, and redirect CAT:TEMP back there. –xeno 18:20, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Redirecting to the category would be the only viable option. Just because it was linked countless times in deletion logs does not mean it should be kept. ~EDDY ~ 18:30, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Speedy Delete Unreference BLP, and fails WP:ANYBIO. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JeremyMcClean (talk • contribs) 18:24, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep. Now, I know it's an unreferenced BLP, but that in itself is not a reason to delete. Having read WP:BLP fairly closely, it gives a lot of weight to the fact that there should be nothing contentious in a BLP, and I don't think there is here. WP:BASIC says A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject. If the depth of coverage is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be needed to prove notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability. Now, if you type "Kathy Chitty" into Google you come up with lots of Paul Simon sites, all of which seem to verify what is written here, and which I would say counts as multiple independent sources. Furthermore, I think if anybody has a copy of this book I think we could put in a reliable source; there are also many other books about Simon which might provide enlightnment (and which I also don't have). Fundamentally you know, I don't like seeing an article which many wikieditors have worked on for nearly two years deleted. Chris (talk) 21:04, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Comment having recently been involved in a borderline notable (from a non-Australian viewpoint) person was deleted primarily because she contacted Jimbo to do so (and I will admit that it did have some (reliably sourced) tabloid-like negative aspects), I wonder if having (unreferenced) comments like "Kathy is a very private person; all attempts by the press to cajole information or her whereabouts out of Simon have failed" and "Kathy was quite shy and wanted no part of the success and fame that awaited Simon" should be taken into account. I'm would surmise that the subject wouldn't really be happy with having the article - but probably doesn't have Jimbo's contact details or know that the article exists. At very least any unreferenced personal details must be removed, but I'll wait until the AfD is decided.The-Pope (talk) 14:01, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep She is a person who people know of, even though they have never met her, talked or listened to her, or seen her. Even though the information contained in the article about Kathy has been public for decades, no one is known to have contacted her or intruded her privacy. Yet Paul Simon has million of fans all over the world who at some point of their interest in Paul Simon's biography want to know a little more about the Kathy of 'Kathy's song' and 'America'. I think Knowledge (XXG) should be a source for these people, and should care to write an article that respects Kathy's desire to shield her privacy. I think the present article does just that. A definite Keep.

Basically not notable - small time crook with some convictions. In addition, this is a BLP with poor sourcing.

If anyone is interested in helping, we've got scores of "crime family" BLPs in the attached categories, most are of questionable notability, and many are also sourced from primary sources (DOJ inmate locators) and court-transcripts reproduced on fanboy sites. When I say lots, I mean lots. A review is essential (taking into account heightened BLP standards since many were created) and a clear-our IMO desirable. Scott Mac 15:29, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

OK. This will be contentious, but I think this is a classic WP:BLP1E

The Abu Graib prisoner abuse is notable and noted elsewhere. But is each of several US reservists convicted worthy of a negative BLP? I can't see any other conditions where someone given a 6month sentence and famous for nothing but the crime would get a bio. As I say, the event is notable, the perpetrators are not individually notable.

There may be other related articles worth adding to this.Scott Mac 14:55, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Keep Harman has significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent news sources, stretching from 2003 when the actions in question took place until the present, shown by 1550 instances of coverage at Google News archive . In 2010 alone, so far, she has 32 instances of news coverage per Google News archive, proving the continuing interest in and coverage of her actions and their consequences. Google Book Search shows 527 hits for Sabrina Harman. According to one extended review of Harman's life in a book, she was interviewed by CNN in 2004 and by the news program 20/20 in 2005, which is not the behavior I would expect of a person seeking to "disappear" from public notice. She is given prominent coverage in a number of books about women in modern warfare, such as . Her tearful apology at her trial is cited as a model of an effective apology in the book "Effective Apology: Mending Fences, Building Bridges, and Restoring Trust(2009)" pages 69-70, showing her continuing importance in our culture. Harman receives extended coverage in the high school history textbook "Understanding American Government, Alternate Edition (2009)" page 403, showing that she clearly satisfies WP:BIO more convincingly than 90% of the persons with Knowledge (XXG) biographies. The nominator says one reason to delete is that she just got a 6 month sentence, but others got sentences of ten years and three years. "The Lucifer Effect(2008)" page 273 by psychologist Phil Zimbardo says Harman got the 6 month sentence because of evidence presented of prior acts of kindness toward Iraqis, which partially offset her improper actions toward prisoners, such as attaching wires to the hooded man standing on the box in the classic photo. The balance of good versus evil done by a person resulting in a particular sentence in no way is the proper basis to judge notability of a criminal. This is not just some embarrassing incident which the world will forget if the Knowledge (XXG) article about the individual is removed, so BLP1E is not that relevant. Edison (talk) 15:27, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Hm, but most of these sources just name her in the context of discussing the incidents. As for the "interview" your source says "a brief interview was published (CNN) after she was charged". That's just a snippet in the newscycle not really evidence of courting public notice. What the loss by replacing this with a redirect to the article on the incident, the impact, and the resulting trials?--Scott Mac 15:44, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

You omitted to mention the interview with 20/20 in 2005, also covered in the citation. There is no policy or guideline which limits Knowledge (XXG) to a single article about every individual related to a notable event when some of the individuals satisfy WP:BIO. Harman has 80 instances of coverage in books just in 2009-2010, showing it was not just "a snippet in the news cycle" in 2003. If you wish to argue for merging the articles, AFD is not the proper way to do it. See Knowledge (XXG):Merging. The torturers were not the same, they were not interchangeable. They had different backgrounds, they engaged in different actions, they received different sentences, and their legacy in our culture is different. We are not limited to one article on all the athletes playing for a professional sports team, or all the musicians in a band, even though in those two cases the individuals actions are more tightly directed and they function as more of a clear team. That is not our policy on biographies. Edison (talk) 15:54, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

I was arguing for deletion. However, I'm listening to your case now. I think the questions needs to be what's a) the best organisation of the material for us b) fair to the subject of the BLP, who has the rest of her life ahead of her. Screaming about policy and proceedure doesn't get us far. As I say, I'm open to thinking. (BTW, it may be your culture, it certainly isn't mine).--Scott Mac 16:17, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Delete - I felt this one deserved more than usual consideration. However, the sole sound argument for keeping this page is that the incident the subject is associated with he strongly notable, but that in a way biases sourcing since most of the are generally about the Abu Ghraib incident with her name mentioned, or a story about convictions which are only significant in context of that. BLP1E does indeed apply, in my opinion. Specific comments I wish to respond to:

"The balance of good versus evil done by a person resulting in a particular sentence in no way is the proper basis to judge notability of a criminal."

It is impossible to measure or quantify either good or evil, assuming you could even create such a duality for the purposes of a Knowledge (XXG) deletion debate. However, it is a reasonable factor that she received a conviction that is otherwise minor and only gains any attention due to association with Abu Ghraib.

"This is not just some embarrassing incident which the world will forget if the Knowledge (XXG) article about the individual is removed"

I can only assume "this" refers to the Abu Ghraib incident, which is not up for deletion. That article has a fairly assured future at Knowledge (XXG). However, the individual herself is of almost zero historical notability, nor does her biography play any factor in the events. I ask in all seriousness, does the fact that she managed a pizzeria truly matter to the events she was a part of? At all? The preceding information regarding her family seems like it is attempting to establish some pathology in the subject, but without citation to show that this is the case it too is simply trivia and possibly even weaseling in some armchair psychology. The rest of the article is nothing that wouldn't be served better under the Abu Ghraib article, if it deserves to be mentioned at all (that's a debate for the editors of that article to decide). Bottom line, I don't feel we are attempting to expunge the past here, since there would likely be little objection to mentioning her within the Abu Ghraib article, but she does not merit a separate article.

I feel I should point out that there are countless articles on Knowledge (XXG) about undisputably notable events, deeds, or creations/inventions which mention persons who are noteworthy enough to mention within that article but not at all notable enough to create a complete separate article about. This is one of those cases. - OldManNeptune (talk) 19:04, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

It's too bad the reputation of Knowledge (XXG) falls in your view, perhaps you should start out by editing articles unrelated to your own work; you might end up changing your opinion. Knowledge (XXG) isn't a place for promoting stuff, its just an encyclopedia that also happens to be a wiki. There are plenty of other places you can discuss this new Linux clone, and maybe one day it will take off in some fashion, be historically notable, and thus have an article here.

Seems to be a gibberish-like non-notable fringe theory from a single author, sourced from what looks like a self-published book. The term has some false positive on Google Scholar (used as a variable name, for example) but nothing related to the article or that seems to establish notability.

  The version at the time of nomination is here. They've since altered the lede to remove mention of centrifugal force, but still don't seem to understand the concept of entropy (or negentropy, which they also reference). --Christopher Thomas (talk) 23:43, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

• Delete, and possibly redirect to negentropy, since apparently this refers to the same concept. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 03:55, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

  They don't refer to the same concept. Negentropy is the difference between an object's entropy and that of its environment (usually in the context of a living creature or other system that expends energy to shuffle entropy elsewhere). Originally it referred to the amount of entropy exported, but apparently it was redefined recently to refer to the difference in specific entropy. The "Centropy" article starts with a claim that entropy is related to centrifugal force on a molecular level and goes downhill from there. Centropy's claim that it means the same thing as "negentropy" is just one more piece of nonsense in a nonsense-rich article. --Christopher Thomas (talk) 08:06, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

  Comment: I don't see how this affects the AfD. The content of the Centropy article wasn't related to the original block, so the only substantial effect is to make it difficult for them to attempt to improve the article to address objections. If this wasn't a WP:SNOW close, I'd actually ask for a temporary unblock for that purpose. --Christopher Thomas (talk) 07:09, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

• Comment: I had a run-in with this editor (an anon Russian who claims to have a verbal IQ of 270 something) a few weeks back; and ended up doing some research on the term (centropy). His general aim to promote a sort of physics-concept based God-theory that he had conceived. In any event, this users intentions aside, the term centropy and ‘centropic’ does have certain pre-Internet usage, in various niche circles (new-age, new-science, etc.), e.g. 1, 2, as well as usage in Google Books and Google scholar. The 1999 Encyclopedia of Complementary Health Practice, for example, has a three-page article on ‘centropic integration’. Although I have yet to find the actual book that Bois is said to have coined the term, he does discuss entropy in several of his books, which lends probability that the term did come from him as the Simon reference states. I’ll add in a stub summary to see if this helps. --Libb Thims (talk) 11:27, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

  Would you be willing to create a (referenced) stub article in your user-space or other suitable scratch-space? This would make it easier to compare old and new content, and you've managed to actually collect a significant number of candidate references. "Delete without prejudice for re-creation" is what usually happens when an article is gibberish but there's the possibility of making a decent article about a subject, though that would hinge on the references satisfying WP:RS and the well-referenced article still being about an adequately noteworthy subject. --Christopher Thomas (talk) 19:05, 23 August 2010 (UTC)

I've already spent more time than I would have liked on this term (I really don't like to contribute more than one sentence stubs to Knowledge (XXG) anymore). It's clear that the term has a 1980s (or earlier) usage, e.g. here (a 1989 book) its described as one of the laws of the universe, opposite to entropy. I still, however, am having difficulty in tracking down the actual book (or article) that the term was coined or first used. As far as I have been able to track down so far, the term is largely the product of Irving Simon and before him Joseph Bois (as claimed by Simon).

The term "centropy" itself is really nothing of note, outside of its marginal usage, here and there, in certain discussion circles. It is synonym of a variety of terms (all conceived by different people, each with their own following) that all have the same general meaning: Anti-entropy, Disentropic, Ectropy, Ektropy, Antientropism, Entropy reduction, Entropy reversal, Extropy, Inverse entropy, Local entropy decrease, Entropy islands, Low entropy, Negative entropy, Negentropy, Psychic entropy, neg-entropy, Neguentropy, Syntropy, Syntropic, Telenomic entropy, Genopsych, namely a verbal way to argue out of the Planck-Boltzmann view of the second law as "systems tend towards disorder" so as to explain evolution and the ordering effect of humanity. Good luck. --Libb Thims (talk) 19:09, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Ok; thanks for your work on this. I don't get the impression that any of us feel particularly inclined to write an article on the topic, so "delete without prejudice for recreation" should be sufficient (this AfD page will stay, so anyone wanting to build a new article can follow up on the links you provided). --Christopher Thomas (talk) 19:17, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

• Comment \Keep While I was the original creator of the page, I was adding it on behalf of User:Dicky747. The text I 'wrote' was mainly from various failed AFC submissions, and a userspace draft. I requested that it be restored simply on the grounds that it didn't look like unambiguous advertising, but as I noted in my message to the deleting admin, it did have a primary source problem. If I could fix the primary source problem and shorten to remove the apparent likeness to an advert, I would do so. Then the only remaining issue would be the notability, which I guess will ultimately decided by the outcome of this AFD. Thanks,Acather96 (talk) 18:13, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Comment/Questions
  • As I see remarks about no independent references, could someone then explain to me if the Dutch Olympic Committee and Dutch Handball Federation are no independent references? Basically you are saying that they are thus not independent, correct?
  • Other question: Do you really think that an organisation such as RedBull Racing, with more then 400 persons working for 2 cars, would go into an innovation partnership with FIR-TEX if they had not tested the product? This is not sponsorhip, which is a totally different story, no money is involved!

Nomination on behalf of User:Fages. De-prodded article.

The result was delete per WP:CSD#G3. I was going to recommend leaving this as a stub, considering what I saw looked OK at first glance. However, the very compelling comment by 52zz1314 (talk · contribs) persuades me to delete-- this was created as an exercise in the comedic arts, not the encyclopedic ones. Furthermore, the best versions I've seen seem conflated and are unverfiable as the article sits. It needs a total rewrite even if the subject proves notable. Any admin who wishes may restore any legitimate, salvavageable, notable and encyclopedic content that I missed, supported by reliable sources, at will and without prior discussion with me. (A note would be nice.) Any editor uninvolved with the shenanigans may request that I do so and I will consider it. But as it sits, it needs to go. Dlohcierekim 18:53, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Non-notable episode that has not received significant coverage by reliable third-party sources to justify a stand-alone article. Article is nothing more than a plot summary. —Farix (t | c) 01:07, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletion discussions. -- —Farix (t | c) 01:07, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Keep: I'm sorry, what?. It is not just a plot summary it is an 1-hour crossover special including Shin-chan and Den-O. It also features new characters. This special also promotes the I'm Born!. So if you want to delete this, might as well delete amen Rider Shin, ZO, and J. Or even the "Birth of 10th special". So don't decide until now to do this. Xtreme2010 ( ~AlienX2009~ ) 01:13, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep: Episode is notable on its own as it is a crossover between two completely unrelated shows (the anime Crayon Shin-chan and the live-action series Kamen Rider Den-O). There was independent coverage by reliable third party sources, but due to the age of the subject the reference to one of these (Sponichi) is down. The episode is covered at the Japanese Knowledge (XXG) at ja:仮面ライダー電王+しん王, which shows that it is notable on its own for their much stricter standards. I have found more references to support the notability and will be working to find more.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 01:16, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
• Keep: Since it's a crossover between unrelated franchises, it can't easily be shoehorned into another article, and there are third-party sources as mentioned above. jgpTC 01:41, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

• Comment Just because it's a crossover doesn't make it notable. Also, just because there is an article on the Japanese Knowledge (XXG) doesn't make it notable either. The Japanese Knowledge (XXG) has much lower standards of inclusion than the English Knowledge (XXG), as show by the inclusions of thousands of articles on anime, manga, voice actors, and etc., almost all of them without a single source. I'll note that even the Japanese article doesn't have a source. Since there is no subject specific notability guideline for television episodes, we must default to the general notability guideline. Under the general notability guideline, a subject most received significant coverage by reliable third-party sources. Significant coverage is coverage that goes beyond announcements or a basic plot summary. However, all of the "sources" on the article are just that, announcements with absolutely no depth to the coverage. If we when by that standard, as advocated by the three keep comments above, then every episode would be "notable" as they will always be announced in various TV guides. —Farix (t | c) 10:33, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
  • Except the two third party sources are not to TV Guides but to a major newspaper in Japan and to an online news aggregator. The fact that this one particular episode was specifically mentioned to exist for the anime should confer that it is notable for inclusion. The Japanese Knowledge (XXG) does not use inline sources as we do and most definitely does not have articles on every episode of every anime or television show. They don't have articles for every Seinfeld episode or every Buffy episode. The subject is unique from both Crayon Shin-chan and Kamen Rider Den-O such that it can deserve its own article separate from those two pages. There are six references on the article. Three may be to the official websites that cover the media, but two are to news sources which are not trivial mentions or TV guide listings but actual articles on saying "This cartoon is going to happen", and the third is to show that figures were explicitly commissioned for the characters of this episode. One of the characters of Den-O did not have such a figure made of him until 3 years after the show aired, and he was in more than half of the show's 49 broadcast episodes.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 19:50, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
    • It's still nothing more than a program announcement, and announcements don't confer any form of notability. Notability is based on significant coverage, not trivial coverage such as program announcements. —Farix (t | c) 21:00, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Non-notable person.

The following comment is copied from Knowledge (XXG) talk:Articles for deletion/Fred Kohler (author, inventor)

• Although I have enjoyed Knowledge (XXG) for sometime, this is my first article that I have attempted to add. The attempted deletion seems to be based on Kohler being non-notable. That his book "Evolution and Human Destiny" (1952) cannot 'prove' that he was the first person to put into print the concept of our human species becoming a superorganism. One cannot prove a negative. It is possible that sometime at a later date a reference will be discovered which contains an earlier reference by someone else. As of now, and it will probably always be true, he is the first person to put this major idea into print. The idea is currently a well respected idea and googling the term, which can be used as either one or two words, brings up over 300 references mostly all within the last 25 years. If this idea or concept is as important as I think it is, as the earliest reference, or at least the earliest know reference, it is important. It must have some importance because there has been an article in the wikipedia on it since 2003.

Point Two. There is no question that the polyswitch or resettable fuse is an important component of the modern industrial world. If it were not there would not be an article on the wikipedia about the polyswitch. There is also no question whatsoever that Mr. Fred Kohler patented the material that is the sine qua non of the polyswitch on March 29, 1966 patent # 3,243,753 and a google of the patent number lists over 30 references to Mr. Kohler as the inventor of this patent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bosoxman (talk • contribs)

• Comment There is no doubt that the concept of the superorganism is notable. There is doubt that Kohler (a chemical engineer with no special training in philosophy or biology) had any influence on any other thinking regarding this concept. And while the polyswitch may be a handy little device in many applications, no evidence has been given that, other than the patent (which the USPTO hands out with alarming liberality), any recognition has come to Kohler from that invention. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 19:47, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

• Comment I contacted Fred Kohler to ask if he wished to weigh in on the breadth of his original idea of the superorganism, on which he published in 1952 in "Evolution and Human Destiny". He has given me permission to publish his email from the noted author, researcher, and academic Dr. Alison Jolly, with which I will conclude this contribution. It is true that Kohler's BA from Cooper Union in 1942 was in chemical engineering; however, chemical engineering was critical in Kohler's insightful thought processes to develop the concept. In "Evolution and Human Destiny" the superorganism is the end process of human evolution which Kohler explains was in an early stages when molecules began self-replicating which then followed several more evolutionary steps bringing humankind to its modern state with the superorganism about to be formed in the near future (as written in 1950-1952). Being a chemical engineer helped devise the conceptual theory which is now a standard of accepted scientific thought. Also, to me, the argument that one must be a biologist to author this concept smacks of those dissing that country bumpkin Shakespeare for knowing 'little Latin and less Greek'. In any event, whether properly trained or not, the book and its contents were published in 1952.

On the 'handy little devise' known as the polyswitch, a google of the patent number brings up 30 scientific articles that mention who the inventor was as listed in the patent. Mr. Kohler holds many patents but this one is just the most significant. The importance of the devices and their applications are unassailable.

Dr. Jolly has been familiar with "Evolution and Human Destiny" for over a decade. Here is here email to Fred Kohler.

From: alisonjolly To: fred Sent: Sunday, August 08, 2010 4:53 AM Subject: Re: essay concerning "Evol. & Human Destiny"

Dear Fred Kohler, Thank you very much indeed for sending on your fascinating essay. I do indeed agree with you about the evolution of the human + technology super-organism. (You already know that). And you can take pride in being the first to point out the power of the idea in evolutionary context. I do like your word "extropy". It also sets one thinking, when you point out that science fiction writers are quite happy to play with technological change, but don't usually dare to tackle the mental changes that will be coming as we more and more join with the super-organism. We happen to have had a teenager with us for the past year (son of my close Malagasy colleague.) His world is very largely Facebook--he didn't actually lose touch with his circle of friends when he left Madagascar for England, because they already all exist within cyberspace. Your perspective as a 90 year old, and your thoughts on death and the future are inspiring to those of us who are merely 70. Congratulations both on reaching 90, and on writing so well about the human condition. Best wishes, Alison Jolly

Keep It definetly needs expansion, but it fits under point #2 of WP:AUTHOR. JeremyMcClean (talk) 00:19, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Comment WP:AUTHOR #2 states that an author is notable if "The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory or technique." (Emphasis added) Although Kohler conceived of a superorganism earlier than others, it does not appear that he has been recognized for that contribution. No subsequent authors appear to have referenced Kohler's work when creating their own concept of the superorganism. Is it unfair that his early work has been overlooked? Perhaps. But it is not the job of Knowledge (XXG) to grant recognition where none has existed. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 12:30, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

dELETE Sorry But I have had difficulty establishing noitability. Much of the articel included unsourced claims or weasle words (suchg as appears to be).Slatersteven (talk) 14:57, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Comment - I have worked over the article for style. It looks better. If the polyswitch invention can be confirmed, that seems a more than sufficient career achievement to merit inclusion. Carrite (talk) 00:11, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Comment Carrite's assessment of the viability of this article hinges on the significance of the polyswitch invention. How significant does an achievement have to be to be considered "notable". Kohler's polyswitch is a handy application of a phenomenon that had already been well known but little utilized for 20 years prior to his patent (see ). The fact that the patent is cited by "30 scientific articles" as noted by Bosoxman above may seem significant, but is 30 citations really a significant number? And are the citations themselves signficant, or are they mere mentions in passing of a device that makes use of a particularly interesting physical phenomenon? Most of the articles I have found that reference the patent are not freely available, so I am unable to gauge the extent of their references, but they are mostly articles about the physical phenomenon of a positive resistivity temperature coefficient exhibited by thermoplastic materials embedded with conductive particles. Kohler's invention takes advantage of this phenomenon, and the articles may mention that in passing, or they may examine it in depth. But 30 citations (in 40 years) does not seem to be a "signficant" contribution. WikiDan61_ReadMe!! 12:29, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Comment - I think in this instance one could make a case of "borderline notability" in both the fields of philosophy and scientific invention. Are those two things additive? I don't know that. It's close one way or the other, and I would argue that the keep is justified in this very peculiar situation. Carrite (talk) 20:39, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

• Keep - This article still reads a bit like a fan site and may need to be heavily edited, but that is not a reason to delete. As with many articles on Wiki, more sources would of course be welcome. VQuakr (talk) 02:59, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Comment The main article mentions that the book "Evolution and Human Destiny" can be found through the "Internet Archives", but I would recommend anyone wanting to see or read the book to go to the alternate source of the Open Library <ref. http://openlibrary.org/works/OL6647935W/Evolution_and_human_destiny /ref>, the open library seems more handy, there are 6 ways to arrange the print (including Kindle) and a link to "Evolution and Human Destiny: Reflections of the author sixty years after the book was Written". As a small point of significance, the Open Library's copy which is used as a template was presented to the Marine Biology Library of Woods Hole by "Dr. Geo Wald Harvard University. The late Dr.George Wald was Higgins Professor of Biology at Harvard and was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1967. Kohler's book was published by the Philosophical Library which had relatively small runs but was at the cutting edge of intellectual thought.

It is true that polymer resistors were theorized around WWII but no practical solution or material was known before Kohler's patent in 1966. If it had not been for Kohler's discovery, the unique electrical properties covered by patent 3,243,753 my never have been discovered. Without doubt, lithium ion cells would have been invented, however, using known material with thermistic properties would make the batteries far more costly and far less safe from explosions. Kohler is universally recognized within the field as the discoverer of the material even if he did not personally benefit from the discovery. His substance, which is greatly used as a component in modern electronic applications has saved many lives and prevented many injuries because it immediately and quietly disables machinery when dangerous power surges appears and then automatically resets when the current stabilizes to the pre-set parameters of acceptable flow. At this time I do not have the patent numbers but the material was successfully patented not only in the U.S., but also in several other countries with more difficult criteria e.g. Japan, Germany, and the U.K.

I would also like to add my opinion that a person who has made two distinct and unrelated advances to human thought and development, that this is not merely additive but rather synergistic, such as the Brothers Grimm with their advances in the development of the German Language coupled with their field work preserving Fairy Tales, and Ignacy Paderewski who was not only the Prime Minister of the Republic of Poland during the difficult negotiations at Versailles following WWI, but also known for his compositions and virtuosity at the piano.Bosoxman —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.192.175.185 (talk) 07:35, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
