This article is written by a COI editor, and there is no notability to their organisation. The sources are weak, when I actually wrote what the sources say I managed about 3 lines of text, although this editor then removed the only well-written part of the article. Fails WP:GNG and WP:ORG.

--Yedhukrishna Menon 21:25, 27 April 2015 (UTC)Hi My name is Yedhukrishna Menon, fortunately the founder of Helping Brainz, which have been nominated for deletion. Helping Brainz is a non profit making organization based in Delhi which works for the underpriviledged on the weekends, since the members of the organization are working professionals. we never work/worked to bear fruits, so nothing fancy to boast about as well. Helping Brainz is all about a passion which young Indians wants to spread (spreading here doesn't mean publicity) throughout the world so that the world one day can become a store house of self-less workers. Few days back to invite more human beings to this ideology, I thought of creating a Wikipedia page, where I plan to include some short and crisp information, just to motivate the youth to work for the community. Now it's Wikipedia's decision to delete it or not. I will continue my community service even without the Wikipedia Page. Everything happens for good. Thank you--Yedhukrishna Menon 21:25, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

And nothing is SOCIAL MEDIA SELF GENERATED--Yedhukrishna Menon 21:25, 27 April 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yedhukrishnamenon ( talkcontribs)

Also to add on : as mentioned by @ Joseph2302: he helped me editing the same however, for instance what he cited in the page is "Delhi University conducted "Udaan", and which is wrong, so re-entered the information as "Helping Brainz in association with AIESEC in Delhi University conducted "Udaan", and because of which he mentioned that the 'COI' user deleted the information entered by the administrator.

My complaint is that the information I added was correct, because I used the sources. Instead of using the sources, you were just saying whatever. But apparently your whatever is better. But this definitely fails WP:GNG and WP:BIO - I was trying to see it's notability, was never convinced it was very notable. Also, stop pinging me everytime you write something, and stop posting on my talkpage, it won't change my opinion. Joseph2302 ( talk) 21:41, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

I dont agree with you Joseph. The sentence framed by you had different meanings, don't know what you read in the sources. I conducted the event so I know it better, so thank you. Please go ahead and do whatever you want with my page. Won't disturb you!--Yedhukrishna Menon 21:56, 27 April 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yedhukrishnamenon ( talkcontribs)

  • Delete I would already have speedy deleted it except that a speedy was previously declined, by in order to let the contributor have a chance to improve it. That decline was not wrong, but it prevents a speedy now. I think this is absolutely hopeless promotionalism, and a SNOW delete would be in order. DGG ( talk ) 00:15, 28 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • I agree, it would be speedy deletable if I hadn't previously removed it. My reason for removing it was that it seemed like the editor was heading in the right direction, removing some of the promotional stuff. But I was never convinced by the notability, and this still reads super-promotional. At least by doing this AfD it can never be created again, as it will fail WP:CSD#G4.

Notability tag was removed because "schools offering secondary education generally accepted as notable". However, this school does not offer secondary education, considering it only teaches to 12 years of age. Still unsourced and orphaned after 6 years, I can't see anything whatsoever online that could be used as a reliable source. Fails WP:GNG. Sionk ( talk) 20:56, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

I've been unable to drag up any WP:RS about this band or decent mentions to pass WP:GNG - surprising given the claims of grandeur and BBC petitions breaking records. I can't even find a decent website for the band - the one in the article points to a T-shirt shop.

I have been able to find blogs saying their appearance at this rave was good, etc. but that's not enough to pass GNG. The Dissident Aggressor 20:23, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

I am unable to find significant coverage (or indeed any coverage) of the subject in reliable sources so the topic fails the general criteria for inclusion on Wikipedia.

Show fails WP:GNG and the page creator states she works for the show. The article's current form is after a TON of promotional language and blatant advertising was removed. All that's left is a list of episode summaries and self-claimed info about the host. There are no secondary references at all and none independent of the subject itself.

MicroEncryptyion (and the related MicroTokenization) are terms created to describe a proprietary encryption process, and aren't in standard usage. They appear to be a Neologism - the sources included only mention the terms in passing in relation to the company's products. There is no apparent in-depth independent coverage to establish the notability of the terms as standalone articles, and the best I'm finding online are press releases and brief mentions in regard to the company.

I am also nominating the following related page, as covered above:

Two-line stub about a song, making no substantive claim of notability under WP:NMUSIC, and citing no reliable source coverage. The mere fact that a song exists is not, in and of itself, enough to qualify it for a standalone Wikipedia article — that takes winning or being nominated for a major "Song of the Year" award, attaining noteworthy success on record charts, or other criteria that elevate the song well above the notability level of most other songs. Normal wikipractice is to redirect a non-notable song to the album from whence it came, but this isn't from an album — while redirecting this to the artist instead could be an option, I'm not sure how valuable that would be and I don't imagine it being all that likely a search term in its own right since anybody who actually was looking for it would have to already know who the artist was anyway. So all in all, my view is that we should just delete it. Bearcat ( talk) 14:41, 12 April 2015 (UTC) reply

The article appears to be an autobiography. It reads more like a CV than an encyclopedia article. The tone is promotional. It was previously BLPProdded. It was removed after adding some sources. The sources all seem to be to generic pages that do not mention him. I have not been able to find any significant coverage of him in reliable sources in the searches I have done. There is some coverage, but I do not believe it rises to the level of our notability standards. --  GB  fan 14:43, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

Delete: Non-notable software. Comment: Main contributor appears to have COI https://www.linkedin.com/pub/robin-colclough/38/b8/304 SageGreenRider ( talk) 23:05, 21 April 2015 (UTC) reply

Although I am involved in the ViewPoint-3D project, that does not mean that the page is not useful to people searching for information on 3D content software, especially as it is the only software currently driving glasses-free 3D screen instantly, in real-time, and with live data and video feed. Clearly the software is notable, there is no "PowerPoint-3D" or "Photoshop-3D", there is no software that allows users to create data-rich 3D animations and presentations with live streaming HD and 4K video, or 3D that is updated by RSS or data feeds, none. If anyone disagrees please post the name of such software, because not Aurora, HTML5 (which is an API and not a product), nor Google Sketchup, or Maya, 3D Studio Max, 3D Afterworks, etc., are able to do what ViewPoint-3D is designed to to: instant HD 3D rendering with live-data updated content.

Why would anyone want to remove the page, its not offensive, the information is factual, the company even offers completely free software to educational users of any size as long as they are non-profit. Educators can use the software to develop interactive content with simple or very complex models, as large as software from companies such as Virtualia that costs thousands of dollars. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RobinColclough ( talkcontribs) 06:12, 22 April 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Comment Actually, this should probably be Speedy Deleted per WP:G11 due to its obviously promotional slant. There is no reason why it can't be rebuilt with good sources if they exist. Anyone could put it in their own sandbox if they wanted. But, even with a change in tone and direct links solely to the publisher's page removed, it still would not meet notability guidelines. ScrapIronIV ( talk) 17:22, 24 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment I'd like to try to defend the page, if that's okay, and I apologise up-front for any over enthusiasm. Can I ask, is it important that users of Wikipedia have a detailed source of reference of new technologies, even if they are not in widespread use? Because if it is then the page should not be deleted or relegated to the soap box, as it is the only computer graphics software that provides 3D content generation with live-data, where external data can change the 3D scene display in real-time without human re-editing. This is very useful for information display purposes, because users can make, amongst many things, a 3D weather fly-through that auto-updates as new RSS weather data arrives, or a flooding mimic diagram in 3D showing river levels as they rise and fall.

If anyone can provide any proof that there is another 3D software that can provide those facilities, without any scripting or programming, I'd understand there being such interest to delete the page. In addition, this is currently the only software that can render HD (up to 4K) video in real-time within the 3D scene. This is useful because it allows, for example, a youtuber to create a live video cast of themselves green-screened into an HD video and broadcast it immediately, or simply allow an information or digital signage screen to show content with current TV and live video camera feed.

On top of these unique features, the software, which is an ongoing development project, is currently, the only that can render directly live 3D animated content to glasses-free monitors, and on low-cost computers.

Current approaches use post processing of existing canned 3D content to produce 2D+Depth or Autostereoscopic interleaved output.

To the best of my knowledge, this software is unique, neither Intel, Microsoft or specialists like Scala or Broadcom have this capability, and some of the 3D glasses-free manufacturers have even threatened legal action as it threatens their control of the content market.

ViewPoint3D is a small project that has been reported by the industry press (links available on the viewpoint-3d.com site under News), however it doesn't have the economic power to compete in what has become a very controlled advertising market, even press releases don't get published without paying for month of advertising up-front, and if all channels are blocked the public won't be able to find out that 3D content doesn't have to cost them $30/second, which is the average rate.

Intel was recently fined heavily for illegal practices, including paying PC manufacturers not to use competitors chips Intel loses appeal of 14B USD European Union Fine, and so any new technology faces the risk of being squashed if not bought out.

People looking for 3D solutions have found us because of the Wiki page, some have been educational users, to which the software is available completely free, others commercial.

I can't say if this project will become globally notable, but deleting the page or dumping it in the sand box will only be useful to commercial companies selling more costly solutions; I mean its not like so many complex software projects are swapping wikipedia's database. Apologies if I've gone on a bit, but I believe in this project beyond pure commercial interest, and hope that the project is given a chance.

Wikipedia is not a vehicle to right the world's wrongs. We are tertiary followers. We write about what secondary sources (e.g. journalists in newspapers) have written about primary topics (e.g. events, ideas, companies, products,...). This debate is about a single issue: notability. It's a waste of everyone's time to for you to talk about other topics like the commercial practices of Intel et al. Sorry to be terse. On the positive side, I see you have added some independent sources in the past few days. That is helpful. I'm pinging people who looked at it before to look at it again: @ ScrapIronIV, @ Erpert, what do you think? Keep and multi-tag for COI, questionable notability, promotional language?

Robin, no-one said it's "just rubbish." The criterion for inclusion is that multiple, independent reliable sources have written substantially on the topic.

  • Delete The software simply isn't notable as Wikipedia defines that term, because it has not received significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. It is that simple, and all the lengthy protestations by the article's creator (who has a conflict of interest) completely fail to address the core policy issue and must therefore be disregarded. This is an encyclopedia consisting of neutral articles about notable topics. It is not an advertising platform for promoting new non-notable software.

  • Delete: I was just about to nominate the page myself, in fact. Fails WP:GNG. A single passing mention in an independent source, the rest of the references either don't mention the subject at all or are low quality self-published sources (personal website on a free web host, Github page, forum post (!), etc). Google doesn't turn up anything useful either. Kolbasz ( talk) 13:46, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Pass WP:1E, specifies that one must be able to weigh if the subject can be specified on a larger article so that it can be merged, but there are cases that one can stand on 1 article such as this BLP if it is large or notable enough to expound on one article. (1) This BLP with its contribution during Haiyan as the source of the compiled OpenStreetMap data (the GPS map end-product of the 4 million data changes that 1670+ crisis mappers mapped for the Haiyan crisis) that has been used by multiple international organizations during its rescue operations and relief efforts on contribution is valid enough to be placed into a separate BLP article. This is so far the largest collaboration of mapping advocates to which the second is the earthquake in Haiti. However, if evaluators seem not to perceive it as big as it is, there is also another event (2) where the subject has been a part of the team that won the 1st Philippine animation festival which makes 2 separate notabilities that must be included to one article pertaining to the subject.
    (3) As the third notability is being the first person to lead a mapping expedition in the Palay-Palay Mataas na Gulod jungle in the Philippines to which the mapping trail produced and shared via the same GPS map is now being trekked by Filipino mountaineers.
    All in all this satisfies WP:BIO due to strike 3 of the subject's notability.
    The issue that may have so far is the limited amount of secondary sources where Wikipedia suggests in WP:GNG. Unfortunately most of the secondary sources do give it a passing mention (PBS, Guardian, UNOCHA PH Humanitarian Response, etc) as it only either links to the subject's mapping resource site or to his alias or a to an explanation of an end-product... but do take note that the end-product is still the GPS map provided by the subject and paper maps printed by other sources. The details are then explained by the OpenStreetMap Wiki on Haiyan which was used as one of the sources. However, let us not forget that even most of the sumptuous source are those of primary and tertiary sources, let us not forget WP:PSTS gives importance to these sources too with the use of common sense. In the end, it is still WP:RELIABLE as well as WP:ANYBIO
    Let us not allow the deprivation of a notable subject of an article get deleted due to literal implementation of WP:GNG without considering common sense.
    (4) Manila Times citation is reliable as it is a newspaper in the Philippines. First Philippine Animation Festival is the first ever animation festival held in 2002 with top universities in the Philippines participating. Ended 2006 as its major sponsor (Intel Philippines) has pulled out its operations in the country, then replaced by Animahenasyon on 2007.

  • I would have to say it was too late. (1) If this article was created around 2002, I'm pretty sure a lot of publications have covered the First Philippine Animation Festival however what I only have is the only remnant from Web Archive. (2) Manila Times is a significant coverage for his award as it is the first english publication in the Philippine since 1898. (3) and satisfies WP:ANYBIO for his award or else without the winning the first, someone else would have; but it is the subject that won it. (4) This also satisfies WP:CREATIVE #4. (5) As for his Typhoon Haiyan contribution, without his GPS end-product, what would have been used? It would have been an old GPS map without the information of blocked roads due to debris as mentioned by American Red Cross. Still satisfies WP:ANYBIO #2. Better keep it.

Indeed, I have already been keeping a source list in user space since 2010 to guide fellow Wikipedians to reliable sources on this article's topic and related topics.

I'm happy to help--I have many other articles with more page views to fix on related topics--so the rationale here, that the article currently reads like an essay, is not a sufficient rationale for deleting an article on a topic that can be shown from reliable sources to be a legitimate, encyclopedic topic for which there is an active program of primary research and secondary-source writing. -- WeijiBaikeBianji ( talk, how I edit) 15:28, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

Song fails WP:GNG and WP:NSONG and goes against WP:SONGS, which says most songs shouldn't have their own articles unless there is something significant to say about them that can fill up a good length article. This was a low-charting digital single released as a commercial for a mobile phone. Several articles about songs similar to this by Girls' Generation, f(x), and Super Junior have been previously deleted.

One contributor posted her opinion on the individual talk pages instead of here, this was "my" copy (now removed) for info:

I am trying to figure out why this would be marked for deletion. In all things new such as the speed for technology today we will see changes in traditional concepts and new ones evolving.

The internet-of-things will impact and change business models and one of the most important going forward will be protecting digital data assets. Traditional recordkeeping and library, archive methodologies for 'preservation' do not cater and will not be suitable for digital data asset management. Whilst the concept and term of digital perpetuation is only just evolving one could same the same for a lot of new terms. Why is it that you have such a problem with this word and its objective for differentiation and clarification.

Even if you delete this the term will not go away. It is already out there in publication on professional website libraries and will be available in the Queensland archives shortly. Therefore whilst it is not prominent now like all new evolutions so is there the introduction to new terms of reference it takes time and one would had thought that the wikipedia was a progressive environment and keen to be seen to staying in touch technology and the changing global environment.

Thank you for your time. Linda Shave

Fails NACTOR + GNG – Davey2010 Talk 02:04, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

Weak Keep as borderline. While he has only had one major role in a notable TV production (Anubis), he has made numerous appearances in Television, and in a number of films. I think this might meet the 'prolific' requirement in WP:NACTOR "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions. Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following. Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment." Ross-c ( talk) 07:23, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Sorry, you have to check sources before making statements. It was nowhere near a "major role". As for NACTOR, please pay attention to the word "significant", which is none of him. Anyway, sources, please. Staszek Lem ( talk) 23:54, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
Wikipedia has clear notability guidelines. If you feel that those guidelines should be different from what they are, then that is a discussion for another place than an AfD discussion on an individual article. Ross-c ( talk) 15:17, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
Actually Wikipedia has quite debatable and contested standards regarding notability, hence the thousands of articles which have been in AFDs, CFDs, etc. "If you feel that those guidelines should be different from what they are, then that is a discussion for another place than an AfD discussion on an individual article." I don't know what this means. I simply pointed out that many "editors" misuse Wikipedia to create vanity, promotional, etc. articles or articles about personal friends, relatives, etc. and some treat Wikipedia as thought it were a fansite or blogsite, or for blatant attempts to promote things or people. That is without prejudice to this article as I am speaking in general. Quis separabit? 15:31, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

  • delete No evidence that this actor did something more than 3-rd row roles. He is said to be "best known" for a role in a supporting cast, unknown how much support was there by him. No detailed discussion of the person. Wikipedia is not yellow pages for starving actors. Staszek Lem ( talk) 23:36, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
On this Wikipedia, we have many articles about non-notable people (not only about actors). Wikipedia has articles of all kinds of people. Some people have article about them on Wikipedia though they do not deserve article. I think that actor who had role in numerous TV shows, movies ... deserves to have an article on Wikipedia. I can and give examples of the significant roles who this man had.--- Christaya1002 ( talk) 09:18, 28 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Glynis Barber, his rather more notable ex-wife. He's a jobbing actor who's been in a few shows but isn't notable. His biggest part is a supporting role in House of Anubis (a satellite/cable kids show). He's not starring on prime-time network TV, he's not being nominated for Emmys or Baftas, he fails to meet any criterion of the relevant notability guideline. Is there material to write an article that's more than just a list of roles copied from IMDb? I can't see anything. Colapeninsula ( talk) 15:43, 28 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. I dunno. His acting gets described as "played with scenery-chewing gusto" in this film review by The Hollywood Reporter. And The Spectator called his acting "a brilliant turn" in this article. So, he does get comments about his acting. Given that he's had a long-running role in a TV show, maybe all that adds up to notability per WP:NACTOR. Maybe. If someone else can locate further reviews of his work, I'd vote to keep.

--Yedhukrishna Menon 21:25, 27 April 2015 (UTC)Hi My name is Yedhukrishna Menon, fortunately the founder of Helping Brainz, which have been nominated for deletion. Helping Brainz is a non profit making organization based in Delhi which works for the underpriviledged on the weekends, since the members of the organization are working professionals. we never work/worked to bear fruits, so nothing fancy to boast about as well. Helping Brainz is all about a passion which young Indians wants to spread (spreading here doesn't mean publicity) throughout the world so that the world one day can become a store house of self-less workers. Few days back to invite more human beings to this ideology, I thought of creating a Wikipedia page, where I plan to include some short and crisp information, just to motivate the youth to work for the community. Now it's Wikipedia's decision to delete it or not. I will continue my community service even without the Wikipedia Page. Everything happens for good. Thank you--Yedhukrishna Menon 21:25, 27 April 2015 (UTC)

And nothing is SOCIAL MEDIA SELF GENERATED--Yedhukrishna Menon 21:25, 27 April 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yedhukrishnamenon ( talkcontribs)

Also to add on : as mentioned by @ Joseph2302: he helped me editing the same however, for instance what he cited in the page is "Delhi University conducted "Udaan", and which is wrong, so re-entered the information as "Helping Brainz in association with AIESEC in Delhi University conducted "Udaan", and because of which he mentioned that the 'COI' user deleted the information entered by the administrator.

My complaint is that the information I added was correct, because I used the sources. Instead of using the sources, you were just saying whatever. But apparently your whatever is better. But this definitely fails WP:GNG and WP:BIO - I was trying to see it's notability, was never convinced it was very notable. Also, stop pinging me everytime you write something, and stop posting on my talkpage, it won't change my opinion. Joseph2302 ( talk) 21:41, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

I dont agree with you Joseph. The sentence framed by you had different meanings, don't know what you read in the sources. I conducted the event so I know it better, so thank you. Please go ahead and do whatever you want with my page. Won't disturb you!--Yedhukrishna Menon 21:56, 27 April 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yedhukrishnamenon ( talkcontribs)

  • Delete I would already have speedy deleted it except that a speedy was previously declined, by in order to let the contributor have a chance to improve it. That decline was not wrong, but it prevents a speedy now. I think this is absolutely hopeless promotionalism, and a SNOW delete would be in order. DGG ( talk ) 00:15, 28 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • I agree, it would be speedy deletable if I hadn't previously removed it. My reason for removing it was that it seemed like the editor was heading in the right direction, removing some of the promotional stuff. But I was never convinced by the notability, and this still reads super-promotional. At least by doing this AfD it can never be created again, as it will fail WP:CSD#G4.

MicroEncryptyion (and the related MicroTokenization) are terms created to describe a proprietary encryption process, and aren't in standard usage. They appear to be a Neologism - the sources included only mention the terms in passing in relation to the company's products. There is no apparent in-depth independent coverage to establish the notability of the terms as standalone articles, and the best I'm finding online are press releases and brief mentions in regard to the company.

I am also nominating the following related page, as covered above:

Two-line stub about a song, making no substantive claim of notability under WP:NMUSIC, and citing no reliable source coverage. The mere fact that a song exists is not, in and of itself, enough to qualify it for a standalone Wikipedia article — that takes winning or being nominated for a major "Song of the Year" award, attaining noteworthy success on record charts, or other criteria that elevate the song well above the notability level of most other songs. Normal wikipractice is to redirect a non-notable song to the album from whence it came, but this isn't from an album — while redirecting this to the artist instead could be an option, I'm not sure how valuable that would be and I don't imagine it being all that likely a search term in its own right since anybody who actually was looking for it would have to already know who the artist was anyway. So all in all, my view is that we should just delete it. Bearcat ( talk) 14:41, 12 April 2015 (UTC) reply

The article appears to be an autobiography. It reads more like a CV than an encyclopedia article. The tone is promotional. It was previously BLPProdded. It was removed after adding some sources. The sources all seem to be to generic pages that do not mention him. I have not been able to find any significant coverage of him in reliable sources in the searches I have done.

Although I am involved in the ViewPoint-3D project, that does not mean that the page is not useful to people searching for information on 3D content software, especially as it is the only software currently driving glasses-free 3D screen instantly, in real-time, and with live data and video feed. Clearly the software is notable, there is no "PowerPoint-3D" or "Photoshop-3D", there is no software that allows users to create data-rich 3D animations and presentations with live streaming HD and 4K video, or 3D that is updated by RSS or data feeds, none. If anyone disagrees please post the name of such software, because not Aurora, HTML5 (which is an API and not a product), nor Google Sketchup, or Maya, 3D Studio Max, 3D Afterworks, etc., are able to do what ViewPoint-3D is designed to to: instant HD 3D rendering with live-data updated content.

Why would anyone want to remove the page, its not offensive, the information is factual, the company even offers completely free software to educational users of any size as long as they are non-profit. Educators can use the software to develop interactive content with simple or very complex models, as large as software from companies such as Virtualia that costs thousands of dollars. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RobinColclough ( talkcontribs) 06:12, 22 April 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Comment Actually, this should probably be Speedy Deleted per WP:G11 due to its obviously promotional slant. There is no reason why it can't be rebuilt with good sources if they exist. Anyone could put it in their own sandbox if they wanted. But, even with a change in tone and direct links solely to the publisher's page removed, it still would not meet notability guidelines. ScrapIronIV ( talk) 17:22, 24 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment I'd like to try to defend the page, if that's okay, and I apologise up-front for any over enthusiasm. Can I ask, is it important that users of Wikipedia have a detailed source of reference of new technologies, even if they are not in widespread use? Because if it is then the page should not be deleted or relegated to the soap box, as it is the only computer graphics software that provides 3D content generation with live-data, where external data can change the 3D scene display in real-time without human re-editing. This is very useful for information display purposes, because users can make, amongst many things, a 3D weather fly-through that auto-updates as new RSS weather data arrives, or a flooding mimic diagram in 3D showing river levels as they rise and fall.

If anyone can provide any proof that there is another 3D software that can provide those facilities, without any scripting or programming, I'd understand there being such interest to delete the page. In addition, this is currently the only software that can render HD (up to 4K) video in real-time within the 3D scene. This is useful because it allows, for example, a youtuber to create a live video cast of themselves green-screened into an HD video and broadcast it immediately, or simply allow an information or digital signage screen to show content with current TV and live video camera feed.

On top of these unique features, the software, which is an ongoing development project, is currently, the only that can render directly live 3D animated content to glasses-free monitors, and on low-cost computers.

Current approaches use post processing of existing canned 3D content to produce 2D+Depth or Autostereoscopic interleaved output.

To the best of my knowledge, this software is unique, neither Intel, Microsoft or specialists like Scala or Broadcom have this capability, and some of the 3D glasses-free manufacturers have even threatened legal action as it threatens their control of the content market.

ViewPoint3D is a small project that has been reported by the industry press (links available on the viewpoint-3d.com site under News), however it doesn't have the economic power to compete in what has become a very controlled advertising market, even press releases don't get published without paying for month of advertising up-front, and if all channels are blocked the public won't be able to find out that 3D content doesn't have to cost them $30/second, which is the average rate.

Intel was recently fined heavily for illegal practices, including paying PC manufacturers not to use competitors chips Intel loses appeal of 14B USD European Union Fine, and so any new technology faces the risk of being squashed if not bought out.

People looking for 3D solutions have found us because of the Wiki page, some have been educational users, to which the software is available completely free, others commercial.

I can't say if this project will become globally notable, but deleting the page or dumping it in the sand box will only be useful to commercial companies selling more costly solutions; I mean its not like so many complex software projects are swapping wikipedia's database. Apologies if I've gone on a bit, but I believe in this project beyond pure commercial interest, and hope that the project is given a chance.

Wikipedia is not a vehicle to right the world's wrongs. We are tertiary followers. We write about what secondary sources (e.g. journalists in newspapers) have written about primary topics (e.g. events, ideas, companies, products,...). This debate is about a single issue: notability. It's a waste of everyone's time to for you to talk about other topics like the commercial practices of Intel et al. Sorry to be terse. On the positive side, I see you have added some independent sources in the past few days. That is helpful. I'm pinging people who looked at it before to look at it again: @ ScrapIronIV, @ Erpert, what do you think? Keep and multi-tag for COI, questionable notability, promotional language?

Robin, no-one said it's "just rubbish." The criterion for inclusion is that multiple, independent reliable sources have written substantially on the topic.

  • Delete The software simply isn't notable as Wikipedia defines that term, because it has not received significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. It is that simple, and all the lengthy protestations by the article's creator (who has a conflict of interest) completely fail to address the core policy issue and must therefore be disregarded. This is an encyclopedia consisting of neutral articles about notable topics. It is not an advertising platform for promoting new non-notable software. If the software receives the required significant coverage, the article can be recreated at that time. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 01:54, 29 April 2015 (UTC) reply

The subject is not mentioned significantly in any reliable sources. References provide in the article: 1 is a trivial link to his website, 2, 3 and 4 don't mention him at all, 5 is a list of 1,679 contributors, 6 isn't independent, 7 is a (seemingly) non notable animation contest, 8 is a web forum, 9 is non independent technical information, 10 is a wiki site, and 11-17 aren't independent. Delete per WP:BIO Winner 42 Talk to me! 13:36, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete: I was just about to nominate the page myself, in fact. Fails WP:GNG. A single passing mention in an independent source, the rest of the references either don't mention the subject at all or are low quality self-published sources (personal website on a free web host, Github page, forum post (!), etc). Google doesn't turn up anything useful either. Kolbasz ( talk) 13:46, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Pass WP:1E, specifies that one must be able to weigh if the subject can be specified on a larger article so that it can be merged, but there are cases that one can stand on 1 article such as this BLP if it is large or notable enough to expound on one article. (1) This BLP with its contribution during Haiyan as the source of the compiled OpenStreetMap data (the GPS map end-product of the 4 million data changes that 1670+ crisis mappers mapped for the Haiyan crisis) that has been used by multiple international organizations during its rescue operations and relief efforts on contribution is valid enough to be placed into a separate BLP article. This is so far the largest collaboration of mapping advocates to which the second is the earthquake in Haiti. However, if evaluators seem not to perceive it as big as it is, there is also another event (2) where the subject has been a part of the team that won the 1st Philippine animation festival which makes 2 separate notabilities that must be included to one article pertaining to the subject.
    (3) As the third notability is being the first person to lead a mapping expedition in the Palay-Palay Mataas na Gulod jungle in the Philippines to which the mapping trail produced and shared via the same GPS map is now being trekked by Filipino mountaineers.
    All in all this satisfies WP:BIO due to strike 3 of the subject's notability.
    The issue that may have so far is the limited amount of secondary sources where Wikipedia suggests in WP:GNG. Unfortunately most of the secondary sources do give it a passing mention (PBS, Guardian, UNOCHA PH Humanitarian Response, etc) as it only either links to the subject's mapping resource site or to his alias or a to an explanation of an end-product... but do take note that the end-product is still the GPS map provided by the subject and paper maps printed by other sources. The details are then explained by the OpenStreetMap Wiki on Haiyan which was used as one of the sources. However, let us not forget that even most of the sumptuous source are those of primary and tertiary sources, let us not forget WP:PSTS gives importance to these sources too with the use of common sense. In the end, it is still WP:RELIABLE as well as WP:ANYBIO
    Let us not allow the deprivation of a notable subject of an article get deleted due to literal implementation of WP:GNG without considering common sense.
    (4) Manila Times citation is reliable as it is a newspaper in the Philippines. First Philippine Animation Festival is the first ever animation festival held in 2002 with top universities in the Philippines participating. Ended 2006 as its major sponsor (Intel Philippines) has pulled out its operations in the country, then replaced by Animahenasyon on 2007. According to guidelines as of March 2010, BLP at least one reliable source that at least supports 1 statement in the article must suffice.

Note to closing admin: Philippine Adventurer ( talkcontribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD.
  • I would have to say it was too late. (1) If this article was created around 2002, I'm pretty sure a lot of publications have covered the First Philippine Animation Festival however what I only have is the only remnant from Web Archive. (2) Manila Times is a significant coverage for his award as it is the first english publication in the Philippine since 1898. (3) and satisfies WP:ANYBIO for his award or else without the winning the first, someone else would have; but it is the subject that won it. (4) This also satisfies WP:CREATIVE #4. (5) As for his Typhoon Haiyan contribution, without his GPS end-product, what would have been used? It would have been an old GPS map without the information of blocked roads due to debris as mentioned by American Red Cross. Still satisfies WP:ANYBIO #2. Better keep it.

  • You may doubt it as much as you like. That doesn't make the festival a major one. Regardless, it's a moot point as there is absolutely no significant coverage about Malicdem; you even said so yourself, "multiple mentions of the subject's name/alias/mapping resource site". Mentions are not significant coverage. -- Whpq ( talk) 10:42, 5 May 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete and salt. Was part of a school team that won a local award ("Participants from all over Metro Manila", "representing the top schools, universities, and training institutions"). Not a major award, not notable or that. One of 1,679 voluntary contributors of the OpenStreetMap project. Not notable for that. Passing mentions of him in blogs. His own blog. A wiki. A Forum. Sources that don't even mention him. Not even close to enough for WP:GNG. Simply not notable. Salt as this was created just after the repeatedly rejected draft was deleted at MfD as a hopeless cause. duffbeerforme ( talk) 11:47, 6 May 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - the article doesn't really make claims of notability. It's basically "some guy who writes a blog, makes GPS tracks, does some art and edits OSM".

  • Keep I created this article by cutting and pasting content that someone recently added to g factor (psychometrics). While it is true that the article in its current form may fail various policies, there's a considerable research literature on the topic itself, so I think the article should be improved, not deleted.-- Victor Chmara ( talk) 13:36, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Strong keep I fully agree that the article in its current condition looks like it has had too little attention from the point of view of making it an encyclopedia article, but this is a recognized encyclopedic topic, there is a lot of literature about this topic available in reliable sources for medical articles, and I would be happy to help improve the article. Indeed, I have already been keeping a source list in user space since 2010 to guide fellow Wikipedians to reliable sources on this article's topic and related topics. So the problem here is just the usual problem most of the 6,861,570 articles on Wikipedia have, that it still needs more work and article content improvement on the basis of reliable sources. I'm happy to help--I have many other articles with more page views to fix on related topics--so the rationale here, that the article currently reads like an essay, is not a sufficient rationale for deleting an article on a topic that can be shown from reliable sources to be a legitimate, encyclopedic topic for which there is an active program of primary research and secondary-source writing. -- WeijiBaikeBianji ( talk, how I edit) 15:28, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

One contributor posted her opinion on the individual talk pages instead of here, this was "my" copy (now removed) for info:

I am trying to figure out why this would be marked for deletion. In all things new such as the speed for technology today we will see changes in traditional concepts and new ones evolving.

The internet-of-things will impact and change business models and one of the most important going forward will be protecting digital data assets. Traditional recordkeeping and library, archive methodologies for 'preservation' do not cater and will not be suitable for digital data asset management. Whilst the concept and term of digital perpetuation is only just evolving one could same the same for a lot of new terms. Why is it that you have such a problem with this word and its objective for differentiation and clarification.

Even if you delete this the term will not go away. It is already out there in publication on professional website libraries and will be available in the Queensland archives shortly. Therefore whilst it is not prominent now like all new evolutions so is there the introduction to new terms of reference it takes time and one would had thought that the wikipedia was a progressive environment and keen to be seen to staying in touch technology and the changing global environment.

Thank you for your time. Linda Shave

Please add answers here, six discussions instead of one make no sense. Back on topic, apparently your statement confirms WP:NEO per nom, adds WP:CRYSTAL as another reason for a deletion, and does not address WP:CFORK.

Consensus is that bullpen catchers must pass GNG. Duplissea does not appear to do so and his minor league playing experience and college coaching also do not qualify him for notability. Mellowed Fillmore ( talk) 03:59, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

Despite being "hailed", Google finds no matches for his name, though "yoni massage" is found in abundance. I'm a bit skeptical (a) because female genital massage seems a strange thing to have "disciples" for and (b) because the article identifies the author as one of the two "disciples". —Largo Plazo ( talk) 02:42, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

Fails NACTOR + GNG – Davey2010 Talk 02:04, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply

Weak Keep as borderline. While he has only had one major role in a notable TV production (Anubis), he has made numerous appearances in Television, and in a number of films. I think this might meet the 'prolific' requirement in WP:NACTOR "Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions. Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following. Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment." Ross-c ( talk) 07:23, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Sorry, you have to check sources before making statements. It was nowhere near a "major role". As for NACTOR, please pay attention to the word "significant", which is none of him. Anyway, sources, please. Staszek Lem ( talk) 23:54, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
Wikipedia has clear notability guidelines. If you feel that those guidelines should be different from what they are, then that is a discussion for another place than an AfD discussion on an individual article. Ross-c ( talk) 15:17, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
Actually Wikipedia has quite debatable and contested standards regarding notability, hence the thousands of articles which have been in AFDs, CFDs, etc. "If you feel that those guidelines should be different from what they are, then that is a discussion for another place than an AfD discussion on an individual article." I don't know what this means. I simply pointed out that many "editors" misuse Wikipedia to create vanity, promotional, etc. articles or articles about personal friends, relatives, etc. and some treat Wikipedia as thought it were a fansite or blogsite, or for blatant attempts to promote things or people. That is without prejudice to this article as I am speaking in general. Quis separabit? 15:31, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
Ross: re:Wikipedia has clear notability guidelines. Please pay attention to the word "guidelines" and read about differences between guidelines and policies. And after you've done that, please explain how your opponent violated the guidelines or policies. Staszek Lem ( talk) 23:59, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • delete No evidence that this actor did something more than 3-rd row roles. He is said to be "best known" for a role in a supporting cast, unknown how much support was there by him. No detailed discussion of the person. Wikipedia is not yellow pages for starving actors. Staszek Lem ( talk) 23:36, 27 April 2015 (UTC) reply
On this Wikipedia, we have many articles about non-notable people (not only about actors). Wikipedia has articles of all kinds of people. Some people have article about them on Wikipedia though they do not deserve article. I think that actor who had role in numerous TV shows, movies ... deserves to have an article on Wikipedia. I can and give examples of the significant roles who this man had.--- Christaya1002 ( talk) 09:18, 28 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to Glynis Barber, his rather more notable ex-wife. He's a jobbing actor who's been in a few shows but isn't notable. His biggest part is a supporting role in House of Anubis (a satellite/cable kids show). He's not starring on prime-time network TV, he's not being nominated for Emmys or Baftas, he fails to meet any criterion of the relevant notability guideline. Is there material to write an article that's more than just a list of roles copied from IMDb? I can't see anything. Colapeninsula ( talk) 15:43, 28 April 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. I dunno. His acting gets described as "played with scenery-chewing gusto" in this film review by The Hollywood Reporter. And The Spectator called his acting "a brilliant turn" in this article. So, he does get comments about his acting. Given that he's had a long-running role in a TV show, maybe all that adds up to notability per WP:NACTOR. Maybe. If someone else can locate further reviews of his work, I'd vote to keep.
