It's about time we merged this WP:POVFORK back into sexual predator. It's a single topic.This article has been tagged for irredeemable POV and UNDUE issues for a long time, and that seems to me the only way to fix it. Guy (Help!) 22:40, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep - this is a synonym for pick up artists, and their community - clearly pick up artists are real - this is an actual concept, and they have seminars and meetings and swap notes. The article may need a name change, and the bias dealt with, but its clearly an actual concept, with participants in numerous countries. Deathlibrarian (talk) 01:54, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

That's not at issue. The problem is that there is no objective distinction between pick-up artists and sexual predators. It's a POV fork. Guy (Help!) 18:16, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

I'm no fan of Pick up artists (in fact i hate them), but clearly there is a distinction between PUA (the focus being that this group is about using/prefecting techniques to seduce/pick up women) and sexual predators, who are people who will break the law to get sex. Deathlibrarian (talk) 10:49, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

KEEP Removal of this article is nothing less than restraining free speech. Seduction community / PUA is a genuine concept and in my extensive reading on the matter the proponents DO NOT advocate coercion or any other behaviour that is non-consensual. Moves to remove this article appear to be derived from a pro-feminist agenda that is 1: not fully informed about the issues at hand nor 2: willing to accept that men have the right to be fully informed about the issues that matter to them. Thank you for your informed intelligent consideration. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Flashmanthecat (talk • contribs) — Flashmanthecat (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Keep but Rename/Refocus to pick-up artist per WP:COMMONNAME - Eh. Yep, a whole lot in common with sexual predator, but the vast majority of sources I'm seeing for the latter are crime-related, and there's a ton of coverage of social/cultural aspects of pick-up artists. You could argue it's a subtype, but notable in its own right. This presumes it being renamed pick-up artist or something similar as "seduction community" does not look to be the common name for this. I'd be more likely to support deletion of the other article, which is all over the place and does not seem to have a clearly consistent definition (not that that's something that needs to be resolved here). — Rhododendrites \\ 22:42, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

I think I am OK with that, but there is still the issue of #MeToo and the fact that there is actually no objective distinction between these self-styled pick-up artists and sexual predators: indeed, they are a form od sexual predator. The entire focus of the field is to coerce women into sex. If consent would be freely given, there would be no need for the armoury of psychological tools they use. Guy (Help!) 08:45, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Speedy Keep Nominator is not asking for deletion, but for a merge. That being said, I agree with Rhododendrites' suggestion of renaming to pick up artists. Nom's suggestion that pick up artists are sexual predators is problematic in a POV sense anyway. Acebulf (talk) 04:39, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
Keep Obviously pick-up "artist" is a concept that has been reported on. Fields with negative coverage (sometimes deservedly) are still fields. Sexual predator is a criminal / legal term and we should not indirectly label people as criminals. BLP violation. GuzzyG (talk) 02:45, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
Keep - the concept meets the WP:GNG, similarly to how we cover the Suffragettes and the Women's liberation movement in different articles. --122.108.141.214 (talk) 09:53, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep Obviously notable content, although a rename to pick-up artist sounds like a good idea. -- Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 15:51, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
Keep and Rename into pick-up community. As to the initial notion of the nominator, I consider that the sexual predator article is a much more likely candidate for deletion as it has virtually no definable subject and is more likely something for the Urban Dictionary than Knowledge (XXG). --eugrus (talk) 18:19, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
Keep it gets ample coverage so its notable. If you want to merge or rename it, that's a different discussion. Dream Focus 18:26, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Delete. As always, people do not get Knowledge (XXG) articles just for being candidates in elections they haven't won yet — he has to win the election, not just run in it, to be deemed as passing WP:NPOL, and other than that the only other paths for a candidate to get into Knowledge (XXG) are (a) to show and properly source that he was already notable enough for an article for some other reason before becoming a candidate, or (b) to show and properly source that his candidacy is so much more notable than most other people's candidacies that he can credibly claim his candidacy to be a special case. (The textbook example here is Christine O'Donnell, who exploded to such a wild volume of nationalized and internationalized coverage that her article is actually at least twice as long as, and cites three times as many distinct sources as, the article about the actual senator she lost to.) The existence of a bit of local coverage in the candidate's own district's own local media is not enough to deem a candidate notable, because no candidate in any election anywhere ever fails to have that. So no prejudice against recreation on or after election day in November if he wins the seat, but nothing stated or sourced here qualifies him to already have an article today. Bearcat (talk) 18:45, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Potassium polyacrylate

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Simple cation replacement of existing article Sodium polyacrylate - no support that there is any difference beyond that. Additionally the article is almost a word for word copy of https://www.howtor.com/super-absorbent-polymer-plants-potassium-polyacrylate.html which makes this article more advertisement than informative. PRehse (talk) 15:01, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Science-related deletion discussions. MT Train 16:30, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

comment I cannot evaluate the copyvio issues at the moment, but searching discloses that this is a reasonably well-known material with a variety of uses distinct from those of its sodium-based analogue. Mangoe (talk) 17:01, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
Comment - regarding the potential copyvio, the author of the Howtor article is Fenglai Dou, while the editor who created the Knowledge (XXG) page is User:Doufenglai. This makes me think the contributing editor is the copyright holder. It does mean that the references to the Howtor page aren't kosher - that page is not the editor's source for the information, it is just a mirror (or the Knowledge (XXG) page is). Agricolae (talk) 17:58, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
- With further digging, there is almost certainly an undeclared COI. The user reports on his user page that he is Marketing Manager for Ma's Group Inc. The only other citation on the Potassium polyacrylate page is the corporate site of SOCO Chemical, part of Ma's Group, who specialize in Super Absorbent Polymers. At best this is COI, but may even be paid editing. Agricolae (talk) 18:19, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Here's the detailed info about my career: I work in a trade company. My job is to operate Alibaba.com (a B2B platform) and get inquiries from this website. I submit products (including superabsorbent polymer, water treatment chemicals, Micro algae products, floodbag, etc. ) there and update them. I told this personal information to clarify that, a well-known material established on Knowledge (XXG) would not help me or my company. And I would appreciate you if you can stop digging me from now on.Doufenglai (talk) 03:58, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep Hi guys! Actually, this is my first article on Knowledge (XXG) and I really admire PRehse's rigorous (and I like aikido&Kungfu too). About this article (potassium polyacrylate), I want to point out that, potassium polyacrylate is so different from sodium polyacrylate (character, uses, price, you can imagine the differences between NaOH and KOH). And it's necessary to have an own article for potassium polyacrylate. Another side, howtor.com is under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License(just like Knowledge (XXG)) and there are no copyvio & advertisement issues :) --The guy working in a polymer company since 2014. Doufenglai (talk) 01:48, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

A marketing manager for a manufacturer of the product who created the page based only on their own and their company's writings really should declare a Conflict of Interest as per WP:AFDFORMAT and WP:AVOIDCOI, both here and on the Talk page of the page itself. Agricolae (talk) 16:18, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep This article should be keep casue there're differences between them:https://www.packrain.com/potassium-polyacrylate-vs-sodium-polyacrylate.html. Deflie (talk) 05:25, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Keep Seems to be enough references already and I think it's necessary to keep. Revealor (talk) 02:39, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Enough references? How so? It currently has one, an unreference essay written by the page creator on a different on-line platform that it largely copied verbatim. That abysmally fails WP:RS and WP:V. (It used to have a second reference to the company web site of the apparent employer of the Knowledge (XXG) creator, who as marketers of the product cannot be viewed as a neutral/independent source.) Agricolae (talk) 16:18, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Must say this is strange behavior for a chemistry article but all of the keep votes are SPAs - I smell socks which reinforces the promotional vibe.PRehse (talk) 10:15, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

It's not only a chemistry (especially isn't a "Simple cation replacement of sodium polyacrylate" as you said.). Potassium polyacrylate's mainly application is water retaining agent --which is an important Drought-resistant solution in agriculture as same as drip irrigation equipment. And I think this would bring more keep votes. (not promotional vibe or "SPAs" stuff.)Doufenglai (talk) 04:05, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

'Important' is in the eye of the beholder, and best demonstrated by citation of substantial independent coverage. The only citations now or previously in the article, the only evidence of importance, is one to your own essay, which only reinforces your own interest, and one from a company trying to sell it, which shows it is important to their bottom line, but little else. If this is so important, where is the significant independent reliable coverage, not written by you. Agricolae (talk) 04:53, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Understanding. If the only issue is lacking of citations, I will post them on article and discussion is down here.Doufenglai (talk) 06:17, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

An IP editor making their only-ever edit to Knowledge (XXG) even removed the AfD notice from the page before a bot restored it. As you say, very strange for an article on a chemical. I am really torn over this one, because I suspect the chemical itself is notable, but I lack the time or inclination to do the due diligence. However, the page as written is somewhat promotional in tone, lacks any WP:RS, and has formatting problems (lettered sections, a 'tip' that I just removed - Knowledge (XXG) doesn't do tips). I would lean toward recommending 'stubify', but I have serious doubts that such an edit wouldn't be repeatedly subverted given the apparent sock/meat puppetry and COI. Agricolae (talk) 16:18, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Firstly, I can't find any of your comments about potassium polyacrylate (the title of this article). I know the author of articles is kind of important and digging someone maybe more interesting than do the due diligence a "chemical". But the judgment would be meaningless when you're unfamiliar it, right? Secondly, an IP editor who even removed the AfD notice is not a reason to delete or keep this article at all. (In my opinion, this guy is just not familiar the wiki rules and not like the red frame)Doufenglai (talk) 04:07, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Authorship is usually not an issue. However, it is important when the page is directly copied from another page - that is at worst a copyright infringement (illegal), and at best plagiarism (extremely bad form), unless the author is the same, in which case it is neither (though still not best practice). That had to be resolved because a copyright violation merits immediate deletion. Seeing that the author was the same immediately removed the concern. However, it also made any reference to that page a circular citation, like citing a Knowledge (XXG) mirror of your own edit (or for that matter, Knowledge (XXG) does not host personal essays, and you can't get around it by first posting it somewhere else then copying it over with a citation), which is worth noting since it is the only surviving source given. Authorship can also be an issue when there is a COI, and I didn't have to do any digging - you put the information right on you User page. One does not have to be familiar with a particular subject to determine whether it has received substantial independent coverage, and yes, I could tell. Here is a thought, though - you could remove all question by using your expertise and interest to rewrite the article with a more neutral encyclopedic tone, supported by reliable sources that are independent of both you and Ma's group. That would go a long way toward assuaging concerns. Agricolae (talk) 04:38, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for sharing your opinions patiently. So far I know the issue is lacking of citations, and I will post them on article. Besides, like I said before, a well-known material established on Knowledge (XXG) would not help me or my company. Only on alibaba.com, there are more than 700 suppliers sell potassium polyacrylate. (and there're hundreds of B2B platforms in the world) People would buy it everywhere when they need. I mean a fruiterer surely can establish an article about banana on Knowledge (XXG), right? By the way, you use "digging" first then I followed :) Doufenglai (talk) 06:17, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

It indeed would not be surprising were a banana enthusiast to write a Knowledge (XXG) page on bananas, but I would expect that banana enthusiast to be aware of sources other than ones they have written themselves, or are on their company's web site. Most enthusiasts cast a wide net for material about things that interest them. What is indeed a challenge for a banana enthusiast is to write an article about bananas that is not enthusiastic, that doesn't for example, call them 'unique', but instead has a neutral encyclopedic tone. Still, that is what a Knowledge (XXG) page should be. (As to 'digging', I clicked at the linked reference and read the banner at the top of the page, so not exactly major excavation.) Notability is not established by how many people sell it, but by how many people write substantial independent coverage of it. Google Scholar returns about 1200 hits, and though I haven't opened any of them up, I would have to think some of them would be sufficient to establish notability if only someone would incorporate that material into the article. As an aside a lot of them on the first page have nothing to do with agriculture: I see superconduction, pharmacodynamics, and what looks like electrophoresis, which confirms my suspicion that the current article is giving undue weight to what is just one application of the polymer, like writing an article on sodium chloride and only talking about how much better it makes french fries taste. Agricolae (talk) 07:25, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for repeat the importance of citations for Knowledge (XXG) article. If you have no more objection about my last comments except the "digging thing" and "banana metaphor ", I do suggest to get back to the subject - Are the citations/references of this article available enough to keep. (I just add some citations on the article. )Doufenglai (talk) 07:47, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

I noted you revised my typographical errors, thanks for that. And I think it would be much better if give time to develop. Doufenglai (talk) 08:43, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Unfortunately there are still several problems with the quality of the sourcing. For starters, the current references 2 and 6 are not only incomplete, they are so incomplete that you apparently did not realize they are referring to the exact same publication. And that is not the only problem with them. Secondary sources are preferred to primary sources (research reports), but more important is the quality of the publication. The International Journal of Current Research is what is considered by many to be a 'predatory open access journal', nothing but a money-making scheme in disguise. These journals charge large fees to publish any paper sent to them, and do only superficial editing if any - in one instance a scientist submitted a paper, a significant part of which was nothing but a repeated obscenity. They published it without anyone even looking at the text and noticing what he had done. As such, they do not meet Knowledge (XXG)'s standard of reliability, being effectively a self-published source. You have also added a thesis, which helps for notability, but represents a primary source as well. And as I hinted before, the page needs to be more about the polymer and less about the one specific application. Agricolae (talk) 12:23, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

Noted with thanks. I will keep working on it. Doufenglai (talk) 06:45, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Dart Drug

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Was a non-notable Landover, Maryland based retail drug chain which had no significant coverage outside of the DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia markets. YborCityJohn (talk) 07:20, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

Comment: Point of reference, yes I am aware that Dart was part of a larger company (Dart Group) which owned Crown Books and Trak Auto but they have nothing to do with this AfD they may have their own merits, this is about the merits of the drug retail division which again does not have significant enough cover outside of the DC market to warrant its own Knowledge (XXG) article.

Delete None of the GBook references provide any in-depth information on the company. The Pension Book refers to the company in a scandal involving selling the pension scheme but there's nothing in the article referring to this and there isn't a lot of information in the book about the company, failing WP:CORPDEPTH. The Reluctant Capitalists has a couple of mentions-in-passing but again fails WP:CORPDEPTH. The company also appears to have been involved in a court battle, Dart Drug v. Parke, Davis & Co, but this also isn't mentioned in the article. Overall, company appears to fail GNG and WP:NCORP. HighKing 11:53, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

The Park Davis suit is recounted in the article on Herbert Haft, the chain's founder. In lieu of deletion I would suggest a redirect there if we decide a stand-alone article is not in order. Mangoe (talk) 18:46, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep ok I'm going to go against the grain here, but I think there is significant merit for keeping this and I urge everyone to reconsider your !votes. I argue that Dart Group is a notable entity as a holding company beyond its notable subsidiaries. There is coverage in WSJ, Fortune Magazine, the New York Times #1, the New York Times #2, as well as ample coverage in the Washington Post which has been dismissed as being "Local." This corporation was a Major, Publicly traded corp with over 10k employees. This unreliable source gives significant detail which shows that there is plenty of material that exists on this corporation for an encyclopedic article, only the need to dig it out of news archives etc. --Fiftytwo thirty (talk) 04:29, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

This coverage, first hit in GBooks search, is also quite significant. --Fiftytwo thirty (talk) 04:40, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

However, in researching the article I came across a List of exoplanets, List of exoplanets discovered between 2000–2009, List of exoplanets discovered in 2010, List of exoplanets discovered in 2011 and so on and so on. In reviewing the “Lists” I noticed that a majority of the Exoplanets listed have a blue link to a small article giving a brief informative description of the subject, how it was discovered, and other facts associated with the subject. I appreciate that a vast majority of these individual articles will never progress pass this level in the near future, due to technology limitations, however, that does not mean the article will stay in its current state perpetually. As our technology advances in viewing space so will our knowledge with regards to individual exoplanets and at that time the articles can be expanded. In the meantime I see nothing wrong with having a short informative piece about an individual extrasolar planet. ShoesssS 13:31, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
Delete. At the moment, the sole reference is essentially an entry in a list. Which is where this belongs. We don't need a separate article for every exoplanet discovered, only for the ones which feature something extraordinary that has resulted in significant coverage. Until more information becomes available about this exoplanet, or something about it is found to be extraordinary, it belongs as an entry in a list and no more. Tarl N. (discuss) 02:52, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

I'll be somewhat more explicit. Is there anything in the article that is not present on the single line in this list? If not, why have an article?Tarl N. (discuss) 16:47, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Weak Keep meets WP:RS and WP:V without problems. I agree that notability is borderline, but this is not a topic that falls into WP:NOT or with significant bias or factual issues. I'd rather keep this based on good faith on the authors' parts. At a more subjective level, I found the article mildly interesting and would assume others would as well. --Fiftytwo thirty (talk) 03:56, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
Delete. I don't think the refs support notability, there are two which look like scientific papers from which the data in this article is deduced. Szzuk (talk) 16:29, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
Redirect: I don't see much in this article that can't be covered by a list such as List of exoplanets (full). Praemonitus (talk) 22:02, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

I'll comment that when I looked for what might reference this page (assuming it was only referenced by the lists it would be redirected to), I got an absurdly long list of articles which didn't obviously relate to that exoplanet. It's been added to {{2018 in space}}, so we get all sorts of unrelated articles pointing to this. If we do redirect it, we should remove it from that template. Tarl N.

Delete While I see the argument that there are many exoplanets on wikipedia, (and lists of them) the ones I looked at still had good enough RS to substantiate an article. Clearly if there are bajillions of exoplanets, and many not of note, then we don't need pages for all of them.... they can sit on a list page. Deathlibrarian (talk) 07:38, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Comment – Understand the rational, and you are right, there are an infinite amount of exoplanets and as such, we here at Knowledge (XXG), could have an infinite amount of articles addressing each. However, at this time, what we have is a list of specific exoplanets, that this particular one is listed in and which has been confirmed and verified by both secondary and third party reliable sources, and as such becomes notable. And again address the area that there is information about this “rock” . A blue link to the limited amount of information we have on the subject is well within our guidelines and as such believe should be kept. Thanks for listening. ShoesssS 17:30, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Tjebbe van Tijen

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I can find no references to Tjebbe van Tijen in the media that would support notability. His name arises quite frequently in the European press and, to a lesser extent, the US press but always as the attributed photographer for an image. These articles giving him photo credit are never about him Fiachra10003 (talk) 21:55, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Largoplazo, you have had some involvement with this article, so you may have researched notability previously. Fiachra10003 (talk) 22:01, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
Weak Keep There are many mentions of him in Google Book search. I don't have time to look at them in detail, few are full view, some are not english, but things that stand out are "founded the (short lived) Research Center Art Technology and Society in Amsterdam" - "In Amsterdam, the archives of whoever ventures into the field of politics and culture will sooner or later end up with Tjebbe van Tijen. For many people he is the embodiment of storage mania." - "Artists were early adopters of the web, and by 1999, when the web was a mere six-year-old, curator Tjebbe van Tijen was already ..." - Also, this looks like reliable source.

Keep I felt like "weak delete" after looking at web coverage, and then found enough more at Google Books to end up in "keep" territory, based not only on significant coverage (of which there is little on the web) but also what's said in various sound sources about his significance. Before I got to Google Books, I found him cited extensively and mentioned once in the text of this book, I found two sources here and here focusing on a particular graphic he created, and bona fide significant coverage in this article devoted to him. At Google Books I quickly came across this, describing him as ubiquitous in the field of Amsterdam culture and politics, this stating that "For many, Tjebbe van Tijen embodies the Will to Archive, and this, declaring that "his ideas founded the largest counter-movement the Netherlands ever has experienced against city planning. The resistance eventually led to riots ...". He gets around in a variety of fields, and enough diverse, independent sources highlight the impact that he has had that I feel the article qualifies to remain. However, the article ought to be expanded to reflect all of this. Largoplazo (talk) 11:15, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep. She has been nominated for a major music award in her country. Knowledge (XXG) is already far too ethnocentric. Let's not further the problem by discounting award nominees from non-Anglophonic countries.--TM

04:50, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Delete Non-notable musician. Possibly fails WP:ANYBIO given that said policy requires The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times. Given that Knowledge (XXG) takes a global audience into account, I'm of the opinion that the Tanzania Music Awards are not "well-known" enough, but this argument could go either way. However, the subject also fails WP:MUSIC in my mind. For example, WP:MUSICBIO asserts that notability can be implied by if they meet conditions such as Has won or been nominated for a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno, Mercury, Choice or Grammis award or Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart. I am of the opinion that the Tanzania Music Awards are not to be considered a major music award like those listed by MUSICBIO (this is on the basis that these awards have accrued much more coverage in WP:VER sources.) As far as having a single or an album on a national music chart, I found one website that made such a claim (among some other unsourced/unverifiable claims), but I was unable to reproduce this and found no mention of Mwasiti when conducting a year-by-year search for anything on . WP:VER coverage and accurate coverage is also lacking, so WP:SIGCOV is also an issue. So in short, the artist in question has been nominated multiple times for a regional music award but has yet to win an award for her work, nor has she produced a single or album that has made it onto a national music chart.--SamHolt6 (talk) 14:17, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep Her single “Nalivua Pendo” was number one on the Tanzania radio charts for eight consecutive weeks and won "Best Zouk Song" at the 2009 Tanzania Music Awards. According to WP:ANYBIO she passes due to "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times." She passes WP:ENTERTAINER for "Has a large fan base or a significant 'cult' following" as she's one of the most popular artists in Tanzania. She passes WP:MUSIC for "Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart" and "Has been placed in rotation nationally by a major radio or music television network" and "Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city" and "Has won first, second or third place in a major music competition."

Perhaps I'm missing something, but I can't find anything to substantiate the notability of this person. There's some coverage in a local newspaper – he had a break-in at his design studio, he doesn't like the council's plans for a garage building, he helped to co-ordinate a local project to promote graffiti on the walls of his town. I accept that a street artist may be notable without meeting the usual expectations of WP:ARTIST (work in major museum collections, exhibitions in substantial publicly-owned galleries or spaces etc); but where is the substantial in-depth coverage in several reliable sources that would allow or enable us to write an article about this one?

Delete. This is a significantly redacted version of a much longer article that was a gigantic WP:COPYVIO, just for the record — but even the longer version didn't reliably source any particularly strong claim of notability under WP:CREATIVE either, but was highly advertorialized and referenced almost entirely to blogs and Facebook or Instagram posts. And no, one piece of local media coverage about a break-in at his studio is not, in and of itself, enough to claim that he passes GNG in lieu of failing creative, either: if you're going for "notable because media coverage exists", rather than "notable because he's accomplished something that objectively passes a subject-specific inclusion criterion", then it takes a lot more than just one or two pieces of media coverage to get there.

Response No, it's not up-to-date. It stopped after the first round of the election. In the mean time, the second round has passed and the new government is working – the "Current composition" has not been updated so far. -- ZH8000 (talk) 14:43, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep, in principle. Executive body of major sub-national governmental entity (roughly equivalent in powers to a US state) - it is arguable (in theory - I think that it would probably be contested in practice) that every member of this body, past or present, is notable per WP:POLOUTCOMES. And the nominator is wrong both in regarding the fact that an article is outdated as a reason for deletion (in fact, it is a reason for correcting the article with verifiable updated information or, failing that, being clear about when the information was true) and in stating that the article does not cover the second round of the election (it does). However, the article as it stands has some bad faults. In particular, while the nominator is not entirely correct in declaring the article outdated, it is understandable why they might think so when one realises that the article is almost entirely about the 2016 election to the Executive Council rather than the Executive Council itself. For political bodies like this one, we generally accept the inclusion in Knowledge (XXG) of information on elections to them, and sometimes in the article on the political body itself. However, if election information starts dominating the main article on a political body, it is usually moved into a spinoff article - but standardly, only once we have enough information in the main article about the body itself to show why elections to the body should be considered notable. As the article stands, though, the election information is undue there, and Basel#Politics probably contains more of the information one would expect in the article than anywhere else in Knowledge (XXG). For the moment, therefore, I am quite prepared in practice to see a partial Merge of any information from the article that is neither already there nor currently undue or a Redirect with page history to Basel#Politics, to preserve the election data in an attributable format, in the hope that, sometime in the future, it will be possible to use the data in an article where it will not be undue.

Classical and quantum conductivity

The article has no clear purpose. Either it points to be a historical retelling of electrical conductivity formulas, an introduction to quantum conductivity, or a comparison article between quantum and classical phenomena. Either way it does no reach its purpose. The article is incomplete and it does not discuss the inaccuracies of a classical model, aside from using a few analogies. It is only linked by other articles as a curiosity. Plus no sources. It may be improved, but we might just do better without it. MaoGo (talk) 16:43, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep. What I see by this one: is that he participated in Venice Bienalle as an artist, representing the country. This is one of the most important events in art world, it not the most important. This one grants passing WP:ARTIST. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 13:41, 25 March 2018 (UTC)
After a bit of a deep dive, I think we should Delete because the two Venice claims aren't exactly what they claim to be. The first one: that he exhibited in Venice is mostly correct, with a key caveat: he showed at one of 48 different "Collateral Events" that are not part of the central Venice programming, but which happen at the same time. He showed at Palazzo Bembo (See here) with 77 other artists. Some of them are well known, but many are unknown. The curators of the exhibition are not particularly well known either: Francesca Crudo, Sarah Gold, Carol Roll and Valeria Romagnini. Of the 77 artists, the majority are redlinked, which is merely a quick shorthand:

Canal Cheong Jagerroos

Peter Simon Mühlhäußer

The Icelandic Love Corporation

Elena & Vitaliy Vasiliev

Of the second claim, setting aside the question of whether being the curator would establish notability, I can't find verifiable WP:RS that indicate he was the actual curator. The best that I could find was ] or ] which indicate someone else was the curator. His own bio says he "Proposed and collaborated on the 2015 National Pavilion of the Seychelles. La Biennale di Venezia. 56th International Art Exhibition" which would seem to back that up. Maybe TOOSOON, so I am happy if it is recreated in the future, but only with WP:RS and without puffed up claims. Theredproject (talk) 22:10, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Delete This article is quite misleading. Shroff did have one work exhibited along with those of 77 other artists at a Venice Biennale collateral event in 2013, not part of the official Biennale. This does not pass 4.b of WP:Artist: "The person's work (or works) has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition." (my bolding). It comprehensively fails 4.a, 4.c and 4.d as well a criteria 1, 2, and 3 and WP:ANYBIO. Independent in-depth coverage of him as a person and/or his works is nonexistent. Although he may well have proposed a Seychelles Pavilion for the 2015 Biennale and was described in one 2014 press release as "a curator at the Venice Art Biennale 2015", he definitely wasn't the curator at the 2015 Seychelles Pavillion, nor was he exhibited there. The two artists selected were George Camille and Leon Radegonde. The curators were Sarah MacDonald and Victor Schaub Wong – see .

Another misleading sentence which I have since amended was "His work has been covered in Airlife Magazine". First of all Airlife is a give-away magazine put out by Montpellier Airport. Secondly and most importantly, it did not "cover his work". (I've now added a link in the reference to a copy of the magazine.) It was an article about a hotel and had one sentence which said: " exhibition space devoted to contemporary art has had exhibitions of artists such as Leon Radegonde and Nitin Shroff." That's all. Two other exhibitions are mentioned in the WP article. The Context Gallery in Northern Ireland is a small gallery situated inside a theatre and shows work by "emerging artists" . As for the exhibition at Birla Academy of Art and Culture, there's no way of verifying this since the so-called reference is not a reference at all, it merely repeats the claim which it is referencing. Consequently, there is no way of knowing how many artists participated and which, if any of his works were included. This is all that's available on Shroff at the Birla Academy site. In any case, there appear to be no reviews of these exhibitions or his work or published catalogs. He's had a few more exhibitions, but all at very minor galleries/venues, e.g. , Finally why is his birth date given as 1967? According to this, he was born in 1977.

WP:OSE is specified as not a reason for notability of a topic.

The other one is just a copyvio history of the dept and a list of courses. Natureium (talk) 16:00, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

@Natureium: WP:OSE does not mean that reference should never be made to similar classes of articles. To the contrary, it states: "In consideration of precedent and consistency, though, identifying articles of the same nature that have been established and continue to exist on Knowledge (XXG) may provide extremely important insight into the general concept of notability, levels of notability ..., and whether or not a level and type of article should be on Knowledge (XXG)." My citation of comparable schools of social works is wholly consistent with this principle. Given the national rankings of Wayne State's School of Social Work, and its history dating back to 1935 (making it one of the oldest such schools), please reconsider your position here.

An academic program's national ranking by a respected and independent authority such as U.S. News & World Report Best Global University Ranking is not a mere "passing reference".

I suspect nothing I can say will change your view, but that's ok, we can respectfully disagree. In any event, it remains my view that the U.S. News & World Report Best Global University Ranking ranking represents significant coverage (indeed, some of the most significant coverage an academic institution can receive) from an independent source, as do the two other independent services ranking this school in the top 20 social work programs in the US. I have also now added several newspaper sources. There is no need for every newspaper source to be added to the article to pass the test of WP:GNG. Your reliance ORGCRIT is misplaced as WP:NORG and WP:NSCHOOL have been amended within the last month pursuant to an RfC to omit the more limited and prescriptive application to schools and to provide that schools qualify if GNG is satisfied. The article was created within the past 48 hours and should be allowed time to develop -- no different than the articles on the other nationally-ranked social work schools referenced above. And WP:UNIGUIDE is a mere essay that does not in any way modify the GNG standards. Still not seeing a valid reason to single out Wayne State when comparable social work schools (many ranked below Wayne -- and, moreso, just about every high school in America) have had stable articles for years. See also WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES: "Most independently accredited degree-awarding institutions and high schools have historically been kept except when zero independent sources can be found to prove that the institution actually exists." The idea that Podunk High School should have an article but a nationally-ranked graduate school cannot is, well, simply ludicrous. Cbl62 (talk) 22:28, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

According to WP:ORG "Examples of trivial coverage that do not count toward meeting the significant coverage requirement: * inclusion in lists of similar organizations, particularly in "best of", "top 100", "fastest growing" or similar lists"", it does not count as significant coverage. This is applicable as per WP:NSCHOOL, "All universities, colleges and schools, including high schools, middle schools, primary (elementary) schools, and schools that only provide a support to mainstream education must satisfy either this guideline (WP:ORG) or the general notability guideline, or both." For your second point, WSU has an article. An individual unit of a school does not need to have an article. Natureium (talk) 22:33, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Again, WP:ORG has been recently amended to expressly state that those prescriptive requirements do not apply to schools and that it is sufficient for a school to pass WP:GNG. Indeed, the second passage you quote says precisely that, i.e., the use of the conjuction "or". Finally, your suggestion that the clear guidance of WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES should be ignored represents Orwellian newspeak, i.e., you are asserting that the WSU School of Social Work is not a school. That argument would have merit if we were talking about a mere academic department within a school or college, but it is incorrect when applied to a separately accredited school or college, even one operating under the broader umbrella of a university. Cbl62 (talk) 23:13, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep the article is sourced well enough to pass WP:GNG. SportingFlyer talk 05:23, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
Move to draft I agree with AngusWOOF that we need independent sources that are substantive and that by themselves rankings are insufficient. If there are other articles that also need to be moved to draft space to be consistent with WP:GNG then we'll do that, too. ElKevbo (talk) 12:48, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Not sure what the point would be of moving it to draft, as the article is now well developed with abundant independent sourcing -- more than any of the myriad other articles on school of social work. Compare Category:Schools of social work in the United States. Given that we allow articles about small-town high schools, challenging the notability of a nationally-ranked graduate program with an 80-year history of contributing to an important field of study belies all prior precedent with school articles. See WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES: "Most independently accredited degree-awarding institutions and high schools have historically been kept except when zero independent sources can be found to prove that the institution actually exists." I'm really at a loss to understand the determined struggle to undermine this newly-created article on a well-respected institution of higher education. Cbl62 (talk) 06:10, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

This is not an independent school; the university already has an article. If this specific unit of the university is sufficiently notable for its own article then the sourcing in the article does not currently reflect that e.g., you claim that the school has a history of "contributing to an important field of study" but there aren't any independent sources supporting that claim.

The basic underlying premise of WP:N is that we need multiple independent sources that focus specifically on a topic if we're to write an encyclopedia article about it. Frankly, there are very few college and university units - colleges, schools, department, research groups, etc. - that can pass that bar. I imagine that most of those are independently famous (e.g., MIT's Media Lab) or have a lasting and profound influence on their discipline such that even people outside of the discipline have a vague inkling of that influence e.g., the University of Chicago's sociology department and their economics department. So most units, including this one, simply aren't notable by Knowledge (XXG) standards. It's not a slight against the unit or its parent organization, just a reflection of the larger context in which we live and the relative importance that we collectively place on publicizing the work and influence of these units. ElKevbo (talk) 14:39, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Quick clarification: I !voted "Move to draft" as a kindness to the author and other editors interested in this article; the closer is free to interpret it as "Delete" if that is easier or more appropriate. (I'd be fine with moving most articles that fail GNG but have a glimmer of passing at some later date into draft space but that is not a workable, sustainable practice.) ElKevbo (talk) 14:42, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Your comments have greater validity in the context of academic departments within a college or university, but professional schools have separate deans and are "independently accredited". It would be a strange encyclopedia, indeed, if we deemed every high school and every community/junior college to be notable, but at the same time denied the notability of a nationally-ranked professional school.
The fact that most nationally-ranked social work schools (and other professional schools) have Knowledge (XXG) articles suggests that your assessment of school notability is far different than the broader Knowledge (XXG) community. Under your standard, none of the 31 schools of social work that currently have articles (Category:Schools of social work in the United States) would pass muster as none has the level of independent sourcing that you demand. Indeed, the Wayne article has far more independent sourcing than any of the others.
The community's broad consensus on the notability of such "independently accredited" schools is reflected in WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES (quoted above), a standard that this article plainly meets.
For proof that your narrow standard (limiting articles on professional schools within broader universities to profoundly influential institutions such as MIT and U. Chicago) has not been accepted by the Knowledge (XXG) community, one need only examine the relevant categories, e.g. Category:Schools of medicine in the United States (> 200 schools with articles), Category:Law schools in the United States by state (> 200 schools with articles), Category:Engineering universities and colleges in the United States by state (> 150 schools with articles), Category:Pharmacy schools in the United States (> 60 schools with articles), and Category:Schools of education in the United States by state (> 65 schools with articles).
In sum, this is a good and healthy debate, but current community standards do not warrant singling out WSU's nationally-ranked School of Social Work for deletion. Cbl62 (talk) 16:08, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

You're correct: I do think that the vast majority of all of the articles you've mentioned fail WP:GNG by lacking independent sources and should be deleted. My intuition is that most of them were created and edited by people with blatant conflicts of interest (e.g., staff, alumni). Like much of Knowledge (XXG), this is an area that receives little attention outside of a handful of editors and many of those editors are only interested in promoting their employer or alma mater, usually in brief, unrepeated spurts of editing. So articles are created that don't meet our wider standards and allowed to remain only because they slip under the radar. All this to say that my comments and !votes here aren't out of some strange prejudice against this school; I don't think that anyone, especially our colleagues who haven't provided any details or explanation, has made the case that this article (nor most of the ones you've mentioned) pass our basic standards of notability. We've pasted together self-interested, minor sources into a lot of paper mache articles and that, of course, is not structurally sound. ElKevbo (talk) 18:09, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification. There are plenty of issues where I have a subjective belief that fans have overdone it, e.g., professional wrestling, MMA, anime/manga, but I nevertheless believe that our current methods of assessing community consensus are far preferable to an elitist, imposed-from-above approach to decide which topics "belong" in a "proper" encyclopedia. (BTW, I have zero affiliation with Wayne State.) Cbl62 (talk) 18:28, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

I also believe that a lot of those probably do not pass notability requirements, however, there is a much higher likelihood that law schools and medical schools are independently notable apart of their universities, because of the amount of research and public interest work done that draws media attention to those schools.

There is coverage cited in the article from U.S. News & World Report, The Detroit News, Detroit Free Press, Chicago Tribune, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Holland Evening Sentinel, and more. That's pretty solid for an article created less than a week ago. And far more than any other article in Category:Schools of social work in the United States. Cbl62 (talk) 16:02, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Admittedly much of the coverage was as a result of the PR surrounding the reality show but there is sustained mention of him following the end of the show, though not as much or in as great detail. The success he has had releasing him music on YouTube has been commented on in multiple articles in reliable sources and the use of his music in a couple of movies may qualify him under WP:MUSICBIO#10 depending on whether they are major movies or not. His song Tera Zikr seems to be a big hit possibly enough so to qualify him under WP:MUSICBIO#2 if anyone is familiar with Indian music charts. It was picked up by Sony and is described as "the biggest pop song of the year". The quote is from a PR piece so the description should be taken with a grain of salt but it is an indication that it probably charted if there are Indian charts. Jbh 15:24, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Spotify Sessions

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is an unsourced and very incomplete list of artists who have recorded Spotify exclusives, and doesn't actually disambiguate any existing articles. Even if this were changed into an article about Spotify Sessions I think it could be condensed into a sentence or two and put in the main Spotify article:

Spotify has a number of exclusive recordings titled "Spotify Sessions", which are recorded specifically for the service by musical artists.

Porter, Jon; Langley, Hugh (September 9, 2016). "Which is the best music streaming service for you?". TechRadar. Future Publishing Limited Quay House. Retrieved March 23, 2018.

They clearly do exist per WP:DABMENTION. If you mean they don't have articles, one article did exist, someone had created one of them and it was squatting there.

@In ictu oculi and Certes: If kept as a disambiguation page, I think the songs of each release would have to be listed and linked, since Spotify Sessions aren't particularly important releases and might not warrant mention in the artist's main article (especially given that many of those artists regularly do similar performances on TV etc. for promotion). Jc86035 (talk) 14:36, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Retarget to Spotify This is looking more like a WP:NOTCATALOG of offerings as one of their products. They could archive a bunch of interviews of various artists and it would be the same result. Compare to The Essential which the bottom entry is a link to Category:The Essential listing for "Greatest hits albums part of Sony's The Essential series". Another alternative would be to use a format like Peel Sessions (disambiguation), but that assumes a number of the SIA links actually have content worth putting in the artist's article or discography. Compare to MTV Unplugged which had numerous artists perform on their show, but only a handful who recorded notable compilations. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:55, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Weak delete. Tough call between just stubbing the article and deleting. Has a decent amount of coverage, but most of it is semi-promotional or self-published in nature.

Keep It appears from a gBooks search that she has a number of publications, including new concepts in her field (bartending), so that she meets WP:AUTHOR. (Using a paint mixer to mix Ramos Gin Fizzes...) Take a a look at the gBooks search, which turns up at least 9 books authored since 2002. A gNews search turns up many mentions in New Orleans-centered publications, but also mentions in outside publications such as: the Telegraph (UK); the Denver Post; and, among the New Orleans publications, she is profiled as mixologist of the year (2014) in New Orleans Magaine. The subject has edited her own article since its creation, but it was initially created in 2016 by an editor whose contributions indicate a broad interest in cocktails and beverages, definitely not a WP:SPA. It can certainly use some additional sources, bu overall this subject appears to meet Knowledge (XXG):Notability_(people) at this point. Geoff | 17:40, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

THe Telegraph link says one sentence about her:"According to the research of New Orleans bartender and author Cheryl Charming and what I’ve been able to find". The Denver Post item is five very minor and fluffy sentences on making Sangria. The myneworleans.com source is good. So that is one source from all the ones you listed that is substantial.104.163.147.121 (talk) 21:50, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep: Additionally, she's considered by bar/mixologists as an expert in her field, and her books are used as historical references. In a Daily Beast article, a writer uses her books for research. "According to the research of New Orleans bartender and author Cheryl Charming .... Bergeronn (was born) in Thibodeaux, Louisiana, in 1889, and moved to New Orleans in 1907." There are also articles in local Midwestern newspapers about her book that details all the alcoholic beverages that appeared in American cinema, starting in 1917 with Charlie Chaplin. https://www.thedailybeast.com/is-the-vieux-carre-the-king-of-new-orleans-cocktails

Uh, Delete let's have a look at those sources. The Telegraph is a single sentence: "Their bar, Bourbon “O”, boasts one of the city’s most charismatic head bartenders, Cheryl Charming, who has a wealth of cocktail knowledge and, if you’re lucky, a magic trick or two for you." The New Orleans Magazine is a decent source, but it mostly talks about the drinks in a fluffy way. She has indeed published books, but I don't think they constitute a significant, major or important contribution to the field.104.163.147.121 (talk) 06:44, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep: She's notable within her field, as there are repeated mentions of her in the trade press (eg) for the on-trade/hospitality industry internationally. The other articles cites (Telegraph/New Orleans Magazine) then give her some coverage outside her specialism. The original nom was a bit strong - there are multiple sources indicating she's about as prominent as a bartender can get. That's not saying a great deal, admittedly. But I'd argue she scrapes in.

Keep Significant discussion about her in secondary, independent sources. . I've added those citations to the article. Passes WP:GNG for significant discussion in secondary, independent sources. Passes WP:WRITER for "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors" and her work "has won significant critical attention." Passes WP:ENTERTAINER for "Has a large fan base or a significant 'cult' following" as she appears to be a local hero in New Orleans, and regularly discussed in their newspapers. Lonehexagon (talk) 05:29, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

WP:entertainer says those things for "Actors, voice actors, comedians, opinion makers, models, and celebrities". That's a big stretch for a bartender.Being a local hero does not count on Knowledge (XXG). 104.163.147.121 (talk) 09:00, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

"Being a local hero does not count on Knowledge (XXG)." What guideline says that? Knowledge (XXG) does not discriminate based on locality. If someone fulfills the requirements, that is evidence they are notable. It doesn't matter where they're from, or where their fans are. Additionally, that was only one of the reasons I stated. She's nationally recognized for her writing. Lonehexagon (talk) 16:13, 27 March 2018 (UTC)

FWIW, I am none of those things, but I know a little about the on-trade. However, I'm relatively new to the AfD process. Is it normal to cast aspersions on contributors to the discussion in this way? Mattyjohn (talk) 08:42, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

It's fine to refer to the general atmosphere of promotion that certainly exists here. The first random quote I plucked from the article just now is "Charming's first bartending job was at a cabaret nightclub in Arkansas. tending bar for five years aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise ship, Charming began working at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida in 1989. She was part of the opening team of Pleasure Island." Someone has to have very serious promotional intentions when they write like that. They have to actually make the effort to find the information and then write up sentences about her entirely routine jobs. Such efforts for inconsequential facts are a hallmark of promotionalism.104.163.147.121 (talk) 21:39, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

The purpose of this AfD is to determine whether the topic is notable, not whether the article is well-written. However, an article can be tagged for including promotional language, and that helps encourage editors to fix the issues. Lonehexagon (talk) 04:44, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Delete I don't think New Orleans Magazine Mixologist of the Year satisfies WP:GNG criteria. Local trade mag coverage doesn't cut it either. OhNoitsJamie 14:19, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

What about the coverage in The Times-Picayune? It's a Pulitzer Prize winning publication that's been around since the 1800s. She receives significant discussion in both those links (in addition to many other sources in her article). The point of WP:GNG is to try to determine whether someone has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. That's been accomplished here. WP:GNG doesn't say anything about mixologists, so I feel like you're saying WP:DONTLIKEIT when you say "I don't think New Orleans Magazine Mixologist of the Year satisfies WP:GNG criteria." Additionally, I feel like that's a false flag because no one in this AfD has claimed she is notable purely because she was Mixologist of the Year. She's notable because of her writing and all the discussion about her and her work in reliable, secondary sources. The fact that so many people are interested in her is evidence that she is notable. Lonehexagon (talk) 02:08, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Delete. Here in FilmIndia (1945) the interviewer talks of a future film called 'Matwali Mira'. IMDB has an entry for 'Matwali Meera' 1947. However I think these may be the result of ambiguation with the Tamil film 'Meera' from 1947. Not significant or insightful mentions at any rate.

Delete per WP:SUSTAINED, WP:GNG and WP:NOTNEWS for their single source coverage of their announcement. As they do not even have a league (and the owner has been making various social media posts for over a year), too WP:NOTCRYSTAL to presume any notability.

Keep! Here is more proof they are going to get started. You don't need a crystal ball. It has gotten coverage. No single coverage here. NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 16:24, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

@NostalgiaBuff97501: That is the same press release from a different local media source,both from their Jan 30, 2018, announcement. Thus, still fails WP:SUSTAINED as it only has the single moment of press (WP:EVENT and WP:NOTNEWS). Yosemiter (talk) 16:43, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

And you wonder why many people believe that Knowledge (XXG) is "NOT a credible source of information". If "single sources" are not enough proof, then why have Knowledge (XXG)? NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 16:48, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

@NostalgiaBuff97501: It is not about proof, it is about notability and verifiabilty, of which the general notability guideline is rather straightforward: "has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article". Note the plural use of "sources". Further explained in the GNG: "There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected. ... Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability." In this case the only source is the initial announcement, that has been reprinted twice on the same day for the same purpose. Per WP:NOTNEWS#2: "Knowledge (XXG) considers the enduring notability of persons and events. While news coverage can be useful source material for encyclopedic topics, most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion. For example, routine news reporting on things like announcements, sports, or celebrities is not a sufficient basis for inclusion in the encyclopedia." Hence why merely announcing intentions to local media, and receiving no further coverage, is not enough to meet WP:GNG. Yosemiter (talk) 17:06, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

@Yosemiter], fair enough. Yet, to others, all of the guidelines are "excuses to delete". NostalgiaBuff97501 (talk) 17:42, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

I came across an enquiry at the help desk

"Hello, fairly new here and have come across an article whose subject I think is insufficiently notable. It's this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/Gayatri_Nair. How can I mark it up as such? Thanks UKCW — User:UKComedyWikis (talk • contribs) 14:53, 15 March 2018 (UTC)"

I concur this page is promotional without really showing WP:NMUSIC for the artist yet. Legacypac (talk) 15:33, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

Keep per nom. Criteria for musicians and ensembles (section 1) are met with the person - Nair is currently a participant in ITV - The Voice competition, though the article is not updated with the links. The person (Nair) is in Knockout stages and if she progresses through next round - there will be just one round before the finals. According to print and online media, she is a potential finalist. With respect to Section 1 of Criteria for musicians and ensembles - all the national news media has stories/articles on Nair and ITV has featured her twice already and constantly posts about her on ITV social channels.

I will point out that being a finalist in the Voice does not meet WP:NMUSIC and unless she reaches the final and wins first, second or third place, that is not an indication of notability.

Comment, I'm not citing just The Sun, but multiple independent sources for articles. Regarding following the rules I understand your concern - Section 9 of Criteria for musicians and ensembles - Winning, runnerup or 3rd place. I agree to that, but I'm referring to Section 1 - Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician , Section 10 - Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g., a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show and Section 12 - Has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or TV network Simonekent (talk) 20:12, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Keep as per Simonekent. There are is quite sufficient coverage from multiple reliable news sources, not all of it in connection with her appearances on The Voice to pass WP:NMUSIC criterion 1. Fairly clear-cut, in my view. DES _{DESiegel Contribs} 00:04, 21 March 2018 (UTC) @Simonekent: DES _{DESiegel Contribs} 00:06, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Page Belly flop has incoming links from articles (see Special:WhatLinksHere/Belly_flop), and people will look it up, so some sort of article is needed here, or a visible redirect to wikt:belly flop, not merely an unhelpful blank-wall "there is no such article" screen. (The bellyflop is an undesired way of entering the water in diving (not scuba). In it, the body enters the water horizontally or nearly so, belly down. Sometimes something is said to bellyflop, meaning that it failed.) Google search for "belly flop" OR bellyflop OR bellyflopped found "About 795,000 results" and many images. And see Talk:Belly flop.

Concept programming

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article describes a supposed computer programming paradigm that is not one of the well-known programming paradigms, and which has no citations to the computer science or software engineering literature, neither journal paper nor conference proceedings (the only "citation" is to an opinion piece in a technical blog). The only use of this so-called paradigm described in the article is by a one-person programming language (XL) by the same author (also without citations to the computer science literature). I have searched for citations in the scientific literature and there are none; also the article has been tagged for not providing citations since March 2014.

This article violates both original research and notability wikipedia polices. Moreover, it is listed on the main "programming paradigm" template, where it is listed amongst genuine well-known paradigms and so will mislead computer science students who are likely to read it. Axiarchist (talk) 03:45, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

very weak overturn to merge to XL (programming language) or Christophe de Dinechin. No objection to delete. Per WP:MULTIAFD should we also be considering XL (programming language) (possible dab?) and Christophe de Dinechin ? Djm-leighpark (talk) 08:37, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

I agree that the additional articles also violate original research and notability guidelines. Therefore, I am also nominating the following related pages because XL (programming language) is a single author project with no citations to the computer science or software engineering literature, despite searches, and the author's article "Christophe de Dinechin" is non-notable, with the main claims being the non-notable XL and concept programming articles:

   :XL (programming language) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
   :Christophe de Dinechin (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Keep Christophe de Dinechin and weak merge for XL The Alpha Waves games was one of the first 3D Atari home games, that influenced several others including Alone in the Dark. scope_creep (talk) 09:44, 20 March 2018 (UTC several

Keep Christophe de Dinechin and merge XL (programming language) for reasons stated above, Christophe de Dinechin's solid career is notable; while in my experience little-known paradigms, theories etc. tend to only have sources from one author, which appears to be the case here, and that doesn't make for a good article on its own when it could easily be merged.

Soft Redirect to Wiktionary (specifically, wikt:comlink or wikt:commlink) per WP:POINTWIKT. The title is searched for, has a relevant entry in Wiktionary, does not have a viable target for redirection here, and the title doesn't have much scope (largely science fiction oriented, so I do not think redirecting to transceiver would be appropriate). Therefore, I come to the conclusion that a soft redirect may be appropriate (per the steps outlined in Template:Wiktionary redirect). --TheSandDoctor 05:36, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
