The subfamily is no longer considered monotypic (see here). As a result, redirecting to a lower taxon is no longer warranted. Although Joe Roe says "No harm in keeping the redirect until someone can write an article", there is potential harm in keeping the redirect because it can mislead readers into thinking the taxon is still monophyletic.-- Leptictidium ( mt) 19:18, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

This article is in sorry shape, and will require a rewrite. Basically everything failed verification, but that's not an AfD-worthy offense. I nominate this for deletion because I don't believe either company here (because I have found nothing indicating that these two are in any way related) is notable enough for me to actually do said rewrite. For Board Administration, there is this, already in the article, that mentions the company exists and has a couple of client; this, also in the article, that mentions Wale founded this company along with a few other people; and this, discussing how the company and one of its clients fell out with each other. Three articles from two sources, all three of which are trivial coverage: the only one that is plausibly significant is the last one, but that focuses on Fat Trel, with only as much coverage of the Board Administration as pertains to that artist. As for Every Blue Moon, there's the three sources in the article (all from the same day), all three of which cover it very trivially (unless you want to argue that a page consisting only of two sentences and a quote constitutes significant coverage, which I do not), plus some other trivial coverage such as a SoundCloud station, and this thing that has nothing to do with the record label. Even if we considered them together (which we should not, because they aren't related), they fail GNG and WP:NCORP. — Compassionate727 ( T· C) 23:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for your comment Elmidae. However, I think it differently. The fact that the article describing the introduction of dLight was published last month, makes it very recent, but certainly not insignificant to the point that it does not deserve being mentioned on Wikipedia. Uptake, coverage and general notability of the topic are outstanding with respect to its recent introduction: for verification of this you can look at the Altmetric scores of the article (Patriarchi et al. 2018), which is currently 264. In scholarly and scientific publishing, altmetrics are non-traditional bibliometrics proposed as an alternative or complement to more traditional citation impact metrics, such as impact factor and h-index. A score of 264, sets the article describing dLight in the top 5% of all research outputs scored by Altmetric. I would say that speaks out for its uptake, coverage and general notability. -- Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 09:26, 1 July 2018 (PST) Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 09:26, 1 July 2018 (PST)

The result was moved to draft space. This is a very close call. There are four editors for keeping (including the nominator) as opposed to three for deleting, which would normally constitute an absence of consensus. However, the weight of policy is on the part of the editors advocating deletion, as the sources here are too weak to reach Wikipedia's standards for corporate entities. Notably, several of the editors who would prefer to keep the article do so on the basis that the article can be improved. Moving it to draft space allows for the opportunity for the article to be improved to the level of Wikipedia standards. Therefore, the article will be moved to Draft:PayTabs, and will either be improved there, or deleted if abandoned.

The mention in Halmos' book is "... I read Pontryagin's Topological Groups. The English translation by Mrs. Lehmer (usually referred to as Emma Lemma)".
First, I think it's a mistake to believe that "Emma Lemma" refers to the translation rather than an obvious play-on-words of her name. Second, this is insufficient to make this a notable nickname. The other reference is to the book itself, which I strongly doubt mentions this name. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 00:43, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for reviewing this contribution.
Please do a search in Google Books for Halmos and "Emma Lemma" ( https://www.google.com/search?num=100&newwindow=1&tbm=bks&ei=halmos+%22Emma+lemma%22&oq=halmos+%22Emma+lemma%22) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emoritz2017 ( talk • contribs) 01:25, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
you will notice that Google Books search returns the two following items. (quotes of search return including Emma Lemma term are bolded).
"I Want to be a Mathematician: An Automathography - Page 93
https://books.google.com/books?isbn=1461210844 P.R. Halmos - 2013 - Preview - More editions An Automathography P.R. Halmos. Hugh Dowker was von Neumann's ...

The English translation by Mrs Lehmer, ( usually referred to as Emma Lemma) ... a revelation, a thriller. Yes, a thriller - I read it almost as I would read a detective story, to find out who dunit.' Paul Halmos ..."
The term "Emma Lemma" is an inside term used by mathematicians of that era; Paul Halmos is one of the most distinguished American Mathematicians; the fact that Halmos finds it sufficient to include the term in the memoir section during his time at the Institute of Advanced Studies while working as John Von Neumann's assistant should be sufficient to validate its significance and notability.
In addition, by including that discussion in his biography, Halmos points to the significance of the book Emma Lehmer translated and Emma Lehmer's significance as an American woman mathematician. Emoritz2017 ( talk) 01:21, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
Pichpich, thank you for the suggestion ... sounds like adding notes to the
Emma Lehmer and to
Lev Pontryagin articles and also creating an article for the book itself is the appropriate way forward. Google Scholar shows it has been cited by 1648 works. Part of the significance of the book is that it was purposely translated from the Russian text by the American Mathematical Society by Emma Lehmer. -- By the way, in researching this further, I found yet another reference to the use of Emma Lemma"", in
[1] [this work is focused on the contribution of Russian Mathematicians, this article states "In 1939 he was elected Corre- sponding Member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, and full mem- bership came in 1958 [38, p. 21]. This last election was planned and carried through by I. M. Vinogradov. In 1940 he was one of the first recipients of the Stalin Prize (later called the State Prize) for his monograph Topological Groups [38, p. 13]. Pontryagin was honored with the Order of the Red Banner of Labor, the Order of the Badge of Honor, the Golden Star of a Hero of Socialist Labor, more than once with the Order of Lenin, and also with the LobachevskflPrize for his research. He was also Editor-in-Chief of Matem- aticheski~ Sbornik for some time."
So USSR apparently awarded him its highest honors (Academy Membership, Stalin Prize, ...) for this book, and the U.S. American Mathematical Society commissioned the translation of this book from Emma Lehmer due to its significance. The article I cited here also states "This theory, historically, was the first really exceptional achievement in algebraic topology", which quite a distinctive assessment.

References
I am not clear what you mean by this last comment. I provided one direct quote in a book by Paul Halmos, a noted mathematician that worked at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton, and was an established mathematician working premier math departments (U. of Chicago for example), as well as two references citing his work (one in another book, and one in a journal), those are all publically available, and they clearly refer to Emma Lemma as the Lehmer English translation of Pontryagin's book by Emma Lehmer ( UC Berkley, and later independent mathematician who has hundreds of publications to her name).

Hi, as the originator of the article, I find this discussion fascinating. please send me an email where I can respond to you by providing a screenshot image of the paragraph by Halmos. My intent was to point out a fact that shed light on some social/sociological/linguistic practices in the stratosphere of the professional mathematics community. The fact is supported by several references. The interpretation of the fact appears contentious. This was not my intent; my intent was to provide broader awareness of that fact.

The article notes:
When you move, you make discoveries. You own more stuff than you thought. There aren't enough shelves, and people have given you a lot of old pictures. Members of Fremont's two historical organizations are making those discoveries. Still, they're delighted with their new home -- the Museum of Local History, housed in a former fire station on Anza Street in the Mission San Jose area.
"Both groups have collected absolutely marvelous things," said Sherry Nighswonger, chairwoman of the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation. "We're hoping everyone will just be astounded by our treasures."
Since last month, Mission Peak and the Washington Township Historical Society have moved more than 100 years' worth of history -- yellowing maps, land grants, steamer trunks, clothes, a sulky for trotting races, a piano that came around the Horn, cobbler's tools, farm implements -- into the building. These artifacts had been hidden in the city's corporation yard, upstairs at the Olive Hyde Art Gallery, the Mission San Jose museum and various other sites throughout the Tri-Cities.
...
The city modified the 2,400-square-foot space -- making the building accessible to all citizens, modifying restrooms and adding climate control for the room with documents and photographs -- at a cost of about $100,000. Under a 20-year lease, the historical societies will rent the building for $1 a year, staff it, maintain the landscaping and pay utilities, expected to be around $150 a month.
The article notes:
IT'S BEEN YEARS in the making and involved a cast of thousands: Ohlones, Spanish, Mexicans, Chinese, Japanese, Americans. Even movie stars Charlie Chaplin and Bronco Billy.
The museum, Mission San w Jose's third, is in a converted fire station on Anza Street and will focus on 19th century Washington Township, which became today's cities of Fremont, Union City and Newark.
Another museum, at the old mission, covers Ohlone and mission periods while a third, at Ohlone College, deals with the Irvingtonian fossils of the Pleistocene epoch, 1.36 million years ago.
The museum is a joint effort of the city, the Washington Township Historical Society and the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation.
AMONG THE artifacts in the 2,400-square-foot museum are a carriage used at the Patterson Ranch, the cradle of C.J. Stevens (the first white child born in Washington Township) and the only remaining spotlight from Charlie Chaplin's Essanay Studios in Niles. There is a huge wok used by the Chinese cooks at the Shinn Ranch, a giant bellows from the blacksmith in Niles and lots of books, maps and newspaper clippings.
The article notes:
Regina Dennie, docent coordinator of the Museum of Local History, had missed only one monthly museum board meeting in eight years -- until last October.
That's when the 72-year Mission San Jose resident said directors refused to disclose how museum money was being spent. She hasn't been to a meeting since then.
Dennie, a member of the original board in 1995 whose term expired several years ago, still opens the Anza Street museum twice a week, leads occasional tours and coordinates about a dozen volunteer docents.
...
The museum, in the former Mission Fire Station, opened in 1992 under the supervision of the Washington Township Historical Society and the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation. In October 1995, the two groups formed the nonprofit Museum of Local History, and continued to rent the building from the city for $1 a year.
The group has an average annual budget of approximately $5,000 for expenses such as utilities and insurance.
The article notes:
In 1950, Southern California native Robert Fisher set up a doctor's practice in southern Alameda County's Irvington district, settling in what was then a rural-but-growing Washington Township after Army service. Soon the doctor discovered many of his patients were from the founding families of the region that would become Fremont.
...
Recollections of the elderly patients prompted Fisher's decadeslong efforts to gather archives, photographs, oral histories and other records on the area -- now Fremont, Newark and Union City -- dating from Spanish colonial times.
Fisher, who later helped incorporate the city of Fremont in 1956, became its foremost historian and a staunch defender of historic sites.
...
Monday morning, movers donating their time hauled the multitude of items from Fisher's retirement home in Mendocino into a small room of the Museum of Local History.
The article notes:
Philip Holmes and Jill M. Singleton, local historians from Fremont's Museum of Local History, are at it again.
After the success of their last historical book about Fremont, called "Niles, Fremont," Holmes and Singleton decided to approach Irvington to educate readers about the community's unique history.
...
All proceeds from the book, which features more than 200 photographs and the first-time publication of personal photographs from the collection of Dr. Robert B. Fischer, will be donated to the Museum of Local History.
Published on Oct. 20, "Irvington, Fremont" is available at bookstores, independent retailers, online bookstores and through Arcadia Publishing at http://www.arcadiapublishing.com.
The article notes:
A group of hard-working volunteers is transforming a weed-covered lot near Mission San Jose into a colorful garden that showcases Fremont's early years.
For months, the volunteers pulled weeds, spread compost, dug trenches and researched native plants to create a memory garden in front of the Museum of Local History at Anza and Ellsworth streets. The garden is about two-thirds complete.
Their goal is to beautify a small section of Fremont, introduce local residents to native plants that need little water and maintenance, and educate students about the days when Ohlone Indians had thriving communities here.
The article notes:
Local historians Philip Holmes and Patricia Wipfli Schaffarczyk have collaborated to create an illustrated history of Warm Springs. Holmes, the founder of Fremont's Museum of Local History, feels lucky to have Schaffarczyk as its curator. Each has a deep appreciation of history.
The article notes:
Cecilia Weed, who fought to protect parks and historic sites using a mix of charm and a fiery Irish spirit, died Saturday at her home in Fremont after battling a series of ailments. She was 91.
...

This article is in sorry shape, and will require a rewrite. Basically everything failed verification, but that's not an AfD-worthy offense. I nominate this for deletion because I don't believe either company here (because I have found nothing indicating that these two are in any way related) is notable enough for me to actually do said rewrite. For Board Administration, there is this, already in the article, that mentions the company exists and has a couple of client; this, also in the article, that mentions Wale founded this company along with a few other people; and this, discussing how the company and one of its clients fell out with each other. Three articles from two sources, all three of which are trivial coverage: the only one that is plausibly significant is the last one, but that focuses on Fat Trel, with only as much coverage of the Board Administration as pertains to that artist. As for Every Blue Moon, there's the three sources in the article (all from the same day), all three of which cover it very trivially (unless you want to argue that a page consisting only of two sentences and a quote constitutes significant coverage, which I do not), plus some other trivial coverage such as a SoundCloud station, and this thing that has nothing to do with the record label.

Thank you for your comment Elmidae. However, I think it differently. The fact that the article describing the introduction of dLight was published last month, makes it very recent, but certainly not insignificant to the point that it does not deserve being mentioned on Wikipedia. Uptake, coverage and general notability of the topic are outstanding with respect to its recent introduction: for verification of this you can look at the Altmetric scores of the article (Patriarchi et al. 2018), which is currently 264. In scholarly and scientific publishing, altmetrics are non-traditional bibliometrics proposed as an alternative or complement to more traditional citation impact metrics, such as impact factor and h-index. A score of 264, sets the article describing dLight in the top 5% of all research outputs scored by Altmetric. I would say that speaks out for its uptake, coverage and general notability. -- Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 09:26, 1 July 2018 (PST) Tpatriarchi ( talk · contribs) 09:26, 1 July 2018 (PST)
I understand your general point. However i personally consider the two news outlets that publicly introduce and discuss the article as verifiable secondary sources. If you have proof to discredit my claim, please provide it. What it all comes down to is: are there exact requirements for the notability of a subject before it can be picked up on a Wikipedia page?

The result was moved to draft space. This is a very close call. There are four editors for keeping (including the nominator) as opposed to three for deleting, which would normally constitute an absence of consensus. However, the weight of policy is on the part of the editors advocating deletion, as the sources here are too weak to reach Wikipedia's standards for corporate entities. Notably, several of the editors who would prefer to keep the article do so on the basis that the article can be improved. Moving it to draft space allows for the opportunity for the article to be improved to the level of Wikipedia standards. Therefore, the article will be moved to Draft:PayTabs, and will either be improved there, or deleted if abandoned.

The mention in Halmos' book is "... I read Pontryagin's Topological Groups. The English translation by Mrs. Lehmer (usually referred to as Emma Lemma)".
First, I think it's a mistake to believe that "Emma Lemma" refers to the translation rather than an obvious play-on-words of her name. Second, this is insufficient to make this a notable nickname. The other reference is to the book itself, which I strongly doubt mentions this name. power~enwiki ( π, ν) 00:43, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for reviewing this contribution.
Please do a search in Google Books for Halmos and "Emma Lemma" ( https://www.google.com/search?num=100&newwindow=1&tbm=bks&ei=halmos+%22Emma+lemma%22&oq=halmos+%22Emma+lemma%22) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Emoritz2017 ( talk • contribs) 01:25, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
you will notice that Google Books search returns the two following items. (quotes of search return including Emma Lemma term are bolded).

Paul Halmos ..."
The term "Emma Lemma" is an inside term used by mathematicians of that era; Paul Halmos is one of the most distinguished American Mathematicians; the fact that Halmos finds it sufficient to include the term in the memoir section during his time at the Institute of Advanced Studies while working as John Von Neumann's assistant should be sufficient to validate its significance and notability.
In addition, by including that discussion in his biography, Halmos points to the significance of the book Emma Lehmer translated and Emma Lehmer's significance as an American woman mathematician. Emoritz2017 ( talk) 01:21, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
Pichpich, thank you for the suggestion ... sounds like adding notes to the
Emma Lehmer and to
Lev Pontryagin articles and also creating an article for the book itself is the appropriate way forward. Google Scholar shows it has been cited by 1648 works. Part of the significance of the book is that it was purposely translated from the Russian text by the American Mathematical Society by Emma Lehmer. -- By the way, in researching this further, I found yet another reference to the use of Emma Lemma"", in
[1] [this work is focused on the contribution of Russian Mathematicians, this article states "In 1939 he was elected Corre- sponding Member of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, and full mem- bership came in 1958 [38, p. 21]. This last election was planned and carried through by I. M. Vinogradov. In 1940 he was one of the first recipients of the Stalin Prize (later called the State Prize) for his monograph Topological Groups [38, p. 13]. Pontryagin was honored with the Order of the Red Banner of Labor, the Order of the Badge of Honor, the Golden Star of a Hero of Socialist Labor, more than once with the Order of Lenin, and also with the LobachevskflPrize for his research. He was also Editor-in-Chief of Matem- aticheski~ Sbornik for some time."
So USSR apparently awarded him its highest honors (Academy Membership, Stalin Prize, ...) for this book, and the U.S. American Mathematical Society commissioned the translation of this book from Emma Lehmer due to its significance. The article I cited here also states "This theory, historically, was the first really exceptional achievement in algebraic topology", which quite a distinctive assessment.

References
I am not clear what you mean by this last comment. I provided one direct quote in a book by Paul Halmos, a noted mathematician that worked at the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton, and was an established mathematician working premier math departments (U. of Chicago for example), as well as two references citing his work (one in another book, and one in a journal), those are all publically available, and they clearly refer to Emma Lemma as the Lehmer English translation of Pontryagin's book by Emma Lehmer ( UC Berkley, and later independent mathematician who has hundreds of publications to her name).

Hi, as the originator of the article, I find this discussion fascinating. please send me an email where I can respond to you by providing a screenshot image of the paragraph by Halmos. My intent was to point out a fact that shed light on some social/sociological/linguistic practices in the stratosphere of the professional mathematics community. The fact is supported by several references. The interpretation of the fact appears contentious. This was not my intent; my intent was to provide broader awareness of that fact. In the grand scheme of things, I am fine with deletion of the Emma Lemma page I started. Emoritz2017 ( talk) 15:59, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Hello, so sorry, but I'm new at this. I do not own this but volunteer at this museum. What does "unsourced and online search yield nothing other than a couple passing mentions mean?" They recently changed their name to "Washington Township Museum of Local History".

Cunard ( talk) 07:54, 5 July 2018 (UTC)While there is no prohibition against moving an article while an AfD discussion is in progress, editors considering doing so should realize such a move can confuse the discussion greatly, can preempt a closing decision, can make the discussion difficult to track, and can lead to inconsistencies when using semi-automated closing scripts.
The article notes:
When you move, you make discoveries. You own more stuff than you thought. There aren't enough shelves, and people have given you a lot of old pictures. Members of Fremont's two historical organizations are making those discoveries. Still, they're delighted with their new home -- the Museum of Local History, housed in a former fire station on Anza Street in the Mission San Jose area.
"Both groups have collected absolutely marvelous things," said Sherry Nighswonger, chairwoman of the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation. "We're hoping everyone will just be astounded by our treasures."
Since last month, Mission Peak and the Washington Township Historical Society have moved more than 100 years' worth of history -- yellowing maps, land grants, steamer trunks, clothes, a sulky for trotting races, a piano that came around the Horn, cobbler's tools, farm implements -- into the building. These artifacts had been hidden in the city's corporation yard, upstairs at the Olive Hyde Art Gallery, the Mission San Jose museum and various other sites throughout the Tri-Cities.
...
The city modified the 2,400-square-foot space -- making the building accessible to all citizens, modifying restrooms and adding climate control for the room with documents and photographs -- at a cost of about $100,000. Under a 20-year lease, the historical societies will rent the building for $1 a year, staff it, maintain the landscaping and pay utilities, expected to be around $150 a month.
The article notes:
IT'S BEEN YEARS in the making and involved a cast of thousands: Ohlones, Spanish, Mexicans, Chinese, Japanese, Americans. Even movie stars Charlie Chaplin and Bronco Billy.
The museum, Mission San w Jose's third, is in a converted fire station on Anza Street and will focus on 19th century Washington Township, which became today's cities of Fremont, Union City and Newark.
Another museum, at the old mission, covers Ohlone and mission periods while a third, at Ohlone College, deals with the Irvingtonian fossils of the Pleistocene epoch, 1.36 million years ago.
The museum is a joint effort of the city, the Washington Township Historical Society and the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation.
AMONG THE artifacts in the 2,400-square-foot museum are a carriage used at the Patterson Ranch, the cradle of C.J. Stevens (the first white child born in Washington Township) and the only remaining spotlight from Charlie Chaplin's Essanay Studios in Niles. There is a huge wok used by the Chinese cooks at the Shinn Ranch, a giant bellows from the blacksmith in Niles and lots of books, maps and newspaper clippings.
The article notes:
Regina Dennie, docent coordinator of the Museum of Local History, had missed only one monthly museum board meeting in eight years -- until last October.
That's when the 72-year Mission San Jose resident said directors refused to disclose how museum money was being spent. She hasn't been to a meeting since then.
Dennie, a member of the original board in 1995 whose term expired several years ago, still opens the Anza Street museum twice a week, leads occasional tours and coordinates about a dozen volunteer docents.
...
The museum, in the former Mission Fire Station, opened in 1992 under the supervision of the Washington Township Historical Society and the Mission Peak Heritage Foundation. In October 1995, the two groups formed the nonprofit Museum of Local History, and continued to rent the building from the city for $1 a year.
The group has an average annual budget of approximately $5,000 for expenses such as utilities and insurance.
The article notes:
In 1950, Southern California native Robert Fisher set up a doctor's practice in southern Alameda County's Irvington district, settling in what was then a rural-but-growing Washington Township after Army service. Soon the doctor discovered many of his patients were from the founding families of the region that would become Fremont.
...
Recollections of the elderly patients prompted Fisher's decadeslong efforts to gather archives, photographs, oral histories and other records on the area -- now Fremont, Newark and Union City -- dating from Spanish colonial times.
Fisher, who later helped incorporate the city of Fremont in 1956, became its foremost historian and a staunch defender of historic sites.
...
Monday morning, movers donating their time hauled the multitude of items from Fisher's retirement home in Mendocino into a small room of the Museum of Local History.
The article notes:
Philip Holmes and Jill M. Singleton, local historians from Fremont's Museum of Local History, are at it again.
After the success of their last historical book about Fremont, called "Niles, Fremont," Holmes and Singleton decided to approach Irvington to educate readers about the community's unique history.
...
All proceeds from the book, which features more than 200 photographs and the first-time publication of personal photographs from the collection of Dr. Robert B. Fischer, will be donated to the Museum of Local History.
Published on Oct. 20, "Irvington, Fremont" is available at bookstores, independent retailers, online bookstores and through Arcadia Publishing at http://www.arcadiapublishing.com.
The article notes:
A group of hard-working volunteers is transforming a weed-covered lot near Mission San Jose into a colorful garden that showcases Fremont's early years.
For months, the volunteers pulled weeds, spread compost, dug trenches and researched native plants to create a memory garden in front of the Museum of Local History at Anza and Ellsworth streets. The garden is about two-thirds complete.
Their goal is to beautify a small section of Fremont, introduce local residents to native plants that need little water and maintenance, and educate students about the days when Ohlone Indians had thriving communities here.
The article notes:
Local historians Philip Holmes and Patricia Wipfli Schaffarczyk have collaborated to create an illustrated history of Warm Springs. Holmes, the founder of Fremont's Museum of Local History, feels lucky to have Schaffarczyk as its curator. Each has a deep appreciation of history.
The article notes:
Cecilia Weed, who fought to protect parks and historic sites using a mix of charm and a fiery Irish spirit, died Saturday at her home in Fremont after battling a series of ailments. She was 91.
...
She also led the effort to create the Museum of Local History in Fremont, on the site of a former fire station on Anza Street.
